Original subtitles

NARRATOR: Previously on The Handmaid's Tale...

It's been months. We're no closer to Nichole.

I met someone in Canada who can help us.

- An American. - [TENSE MUSIC]

OFJOSEPH: We have five new Marthas

- for the Resistance. - BETH: How do you know?

- I chose them. - BETH: Scones mean "no".

A message from the network.

No more medication for Eleanor.

Have you ever thought about leaving Gilead?

Joseph would help you. You could leave together.

Joseph is a war criminal.

He can't cross the border.

He would be jailed for the rest of his life.

And he would deserve it.

WINSLOW: Lawrence's contributions to Gilead have been...

- substantial. - WATERFORD: At first.

He's had four Handmaids.

Not one has produced.

If he's unfit to lead his household,

he's unfit to lead Gilead.

WATERFORD: In bearing witness, we... pray with you

for a fruitful outcome.

- ELEANOR: You swore... - LAWRENCE: Eleanor, shh! Quiet!

ELEANOR: ... we would never have to do this!

You need to be quiet! We don't have to do anything!

ELEANOR: You swore it!

The doctor is going to check me.

You are the love of my life.

[SOBBING]

I'll get you a truck.

You get my wife out safely.

You can get out, too.

You just have to bring them something valuable.

Kids.

Do you know anyone who could help me move children out?

I'm gonna get them out.

You're gonna get yourself killed.

I did what you asked.

OFJOSEPH: The Marthas?

Muffins mean "yes".

We're gonna need a bigger boat.

[CHILDREN CHATTERING]

JUNE: Fifty-two.

Marthas and Handmaids are offering to help me

get fifty-two kids out.

Fifty-two kids.

And ten seats.

How does that math work?

Moira would tell me

I need to keep my fucking shit together.

[THUDDING]

LAWRENCE: Eleanor. No...

Don't...

Eleanor.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[ELEANOR SOBBING]

LAWRENCE: You should go. Go.

- Shut up! - OFJOSEPH: Eleanor?

LAWRENCE: Eleanor, listen to me, I love you.

ELEANOR: Liar!

[ELEANOR CONTINUES SOBBING]

Eleanor.

Look at me.

You don't want to be a murderer.

You don't want to live like that.

ELEANOR: You were raped because of him.

You were brutalized, poor girl,

because of him!

OFJOSEPH: I know you want to kill him.

I would like to kill him, too.

But we can't always just do what we want.

We have to control ourselves.

It's all his fault.

No, it's not.

It's your fault, too.

You could have done something.

We all could have done something.

Well, I'm doing something now.

OFJOSEPH: I need him now.

To fix it.

Nothing can fix it.

OFJOSEPH: I have a plan, Eleanor.

But I need him alive.

I need his help.

And I need yours.

So, put down the gun.

Please.

Will it make it better?

Yes.

How do you know it will work?

'Cause it has to.

Because all of this has to add up to something.

It has to mean something.

[HOPEFUL INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]

I need your help, Eleanor.

Help me make it mean something.

[WHIMPERS]

[SOBBING]

LAWRENCE: [EXHALING SHARPLY] Oh, God.

OFJOSEPH: Thank you.

Thank you.

[ELEANOR CRYING]

[OFJOSEPH SHUSHING]

OFJOSEPH: She's settled.

Drink?

OFJOSEPH: Sure.

[LAWRENCE GROANS]

I'll do it.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, you do...

everything, don't you?

Ice queen.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Funny thing.

I found those kids that can help you leave.

I also found the Marthas who were willing to help.

- LAWRENCE: Yeah? - Yeah.

More than I expected,

actually.

LAWRENCE: How many?

- Fifty-two. - I'm sorry?

OFJOSEPH: Fifty-two kids...

that you are gonna help save from this

shitty place you created.

LAWRENCE: You know how insane

you sound right now? Part of the equation

we overlooked, mental health, obviously.

You owe me.

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

I assume you are staying.

Yes.

LAWRENCE: Mmm.

Maternal love, we overlooked that one, too.

So many regrets.

I need to get my wife out.

So, you'll do it?

Yes.

OFJOSEPH: Can you get more trucks?

[LAWRENCE SCOFFS]

I'll try.

Thank you.

LAWRENCE: Mmm.

Wouldn't it be funny if you actually turned out

- to be a hero? - [LAWRENCE SCOFFS]

Wouldn't it?

[SCOFFS]

[OFJOSEPH GIGGLES]

[SIRENS BLARING]

I tried not to overpack,

ma'am, but we still need the same number of toiletries

even for one night.

SERENA: I'm sure you did a fine job.

You always do.

How close are you to bringing her back?

We're closer than ever.

It's hard to get governments to agree, so we're...

taking a more personal approach.

This negotiation ought to do it.

[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]

And you're sure

that this is the best thing for Nichole?

MAN: Blessed day.

[MELANCHOLIC PIANO MUSIC]

Thank you for loving Nichole so much.

Mmm-hmm.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.

Time to go.

May the Lord bless our endeavor.

- [RITA LOADS LUGGAGE] - Amen.

Nice car.

Befits you.

Feels good to drive again.

[DOOR OPENS]

They're here.

Who?

BETH: Just answer their questions.

Don't ask any,

don't say anything extra.

Are you working on a plan to get kids out?

Yes.

- Who asked you to do that? - No one.

- So it's your idea? - Yes.

Dumb idea.

LORRAINE: We're shutting you down.

We have our own plans, you're interfering with them.

REESE: You didn't even ask.

I don't need permission.

We could poison you.

Dump your body in the river, make it look like a suicide.

And no one would know.

No one would ask.

Fine, I'll ask.

Will you grant me permission

to rescue 52 kids

from a lifetime of Salvagings,

torture, and rape?

WANDA: No one's going to help you.

They already agreed.

They answer to us.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[FOOTSTEPS ECHOING]

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

So you took a poll about whether people

would be better off outside Gilead

and you got some Marthas to say yes.

What a victory.

My Commander will provide the vehicles

to get them out.

- Lawrence? - He's done it before.

WANDA: We did it before. You didn't do a thing.

You jumped onto a train that was already moving

and now you're Che fucking Guevara.

There will be an escape vehicle

with room for 52 kids.

If you would like that vehicle to be empty,

I have no doubt that you can do that.

But why?

Why would you ever prevent these kids

from having a better life?

I vouch for her.

She saved this house.

She got the bomb-maker out.

She saved the five from Chicago.

I trust June,

she keeps her cool.

HELEN: Beth.

There's a shipment scheduled to fly in next week.

- Billy's helping us unload. - BETH: Then we'll wait,

until after the shipment.

We will not interfere with your plans.

We've worked on this a long time.

We can't risk a security crackdown.

There won't be one.

This has a small chance of working.

And a high probability of you dying in the process.

The Marthas who have agreed to help you

are doing it on their own.

If this goes sideways, their blood is on you.

We will not help you or offer protection.

We will not stand in your way.

Thank you.

- HELEN: Godspeed. - Godspeed.

[COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING SOFTLY ON RADIO]

[WATERFORD SIGHS]

Freedom of the open road.

You were right to suggest we drive ourselves.

Seems smarter, given what we're doing.

Nervous?

A little.

WATERFORD: I'm proud of you.

For keeping your head.

Mr. Tuello didn't know

who he was dealing with.

The Americans have always underestimated

our devotion to the cause.

I'm just sorry he...

pulled you into this.

They think we're as weak as they are.

Do you remember what this

used to look like out here?

Rusted-out factories.

WATERFORD: Dirty air,

dirty water.

SERENA: We returned

the world to its natural state.

WATERFORD: Something to be proud of.

[COUNTRY SONG ENDS]

RADIO HOST: This is Radio Free America broadcasting

from somewhere in the Great White...

You should have a turn.

Driving.

No, no.

WATERFORD: Why not?

We won't see another soul for miles.

You got this.

SERENA: Hello.

MOTHER: Welcome.

We're so honored by your visit.

SERENA: It's lovely to meet you.

You have beautiful children and helpful,

too, I see.

We've been blessed to have my parents here

to help us raise them.

It takes a village.

SERENA: Indeed.

I love that color.

SERENA: Thank you.

OFJOSEPH: So what's in the shipment?

BETH: No idea.

It's best not to know.

OFJOSEPH: They mentioned someone named Billy.

He's a bartender at Jezebel's.

When I left, I picked him

to coordinate the black market stuff.

So you trust him.

I trust his love of money.

OFJOSEPH: She didn't eat her breakfast?

SIENNA: I guess.

She didn't bring the tray in.

Have you seen Lawrence?

Sleeping in?

[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]

Car's gone.

"Sorry".

Fuck!

[OFJOSEPH BREATHING HEAVILY]

[PHONE RINGING]

OPERATOR: Blessed day, Commander Lawrence.

To whom shall I place the call?

BETH: What are you doing?

OFJOSEPH: Help me.

We're fucked.

Nobody knows they're gone. We've still got time.

A day? Two?

We have time to make a plan.

It's over.

I'll end up at Jezebel's again,

if I'm lucky.

The Martha shipment.

Can you help me talk to Billy?

Are you insane?

Why can't we just get the kids on the plane?

Have you forgotten where you are?

A plane that flies in has to fly out, right?

I never should have vouched for you.

This house was a hell of a lot safer

before you got here.

What do you want?

I'm scared.

Get out.

Go! Both of you.

Please.

WATERFORD: You're worried.

[WATERFORD SIGHS]

About bringing Nichole back here.

I'm fine.

Do you remember us

in our little apartment...

above the bakery?

I kept you in a steady supply

of chocolate croissants.

You were trying to fatten me up.

I didn't want other men looking at you.

I wrote my first book there.

You were a good writer.

How could you take that away from me?

I'm sorry.

I didn't realize how much this would cost you.

What if it had never happened?

Do you ever imagine what our lives

would have been like?

I suppose I'd still be in marketing, you'd...

be a television pundit.

[SERENA LAUGHS]

I'd quit my job to manage your career,

I'd be the man behind the woman.

You would get resentful,

and then we would get a divorce.

And then you'd find a fertile woman and marry her.

- WATERFORD: I don't think so. - SERENA: Really?

More likely you'd leave me,

for a man more capable of giving you a child.

You're just saying that in this place.

But this isn't where we live.

It could be.

Why couldn't we retire to a town like this?

Or this very one, I don't know.

We could give up our place in line.

You would do that?

WATERFORD: I don't need all

the pomp and circumstance.

You love D.C.

We worked so hard

with the Winslows.

I don't give a damn about the Winslows.

[EMOTIONAL MUSIC]

I don't want to miss

watching our daughter grow up.

Her first steps.

She is gonna grow up to be just like you.

LAWRENCE: Sienna, take Mrs. Lawrence to her room

and get her settled, please.

SIENNA: Yes, sir.

LAWRENCE: Beth...

[DOOR CREAKS OPEN]

What are you doing back?

I had an attack of conscience.

Bullshit.

You promised

you would help me.

I made certain promises based on that.

You should have known.

I should have known you were a fucking liar?

You should have known that my wife

is more important to me than you are.

You can't get out, can you?

That's why you came back.

LAWRENCE: You need new authorizations

for the checkpoints in the new territories.

I don't have them.

I do not think that

that is a clerical oversight.

So, you can't get trucks out?

I can't get a mouse out.

They've... they've got me.
