[June] Previo usly on
The Handmaid's Tale...

[shouting] Don't spit that out!

[whimpers]

Mrs. Keyes is safe in custody.

[Lawrence] We have a situation.

A fugitive Handmaid
captured in Chicago.

Do with her what you will.

[Janine] Aunt Lydia, please.

Just don't send me
back into service.

I'd rather die here.

Whatever are we going
to do with you?

Anger is necessary to heal.
But we can't live there.

Why does healing
have to be the only goal?

Why can't we be as furious
as we feel?

With Offred now in Canada,
we can't be naive about that.

[heels clicking]

She could put us both away
for the maximum sentence

and prevent you from being
a mother to your son.

We need to drop our fight.

My name is June Osborn.

Fred Waterford and Serena Joy

imprisoned me, beat me,
and raped me.

No. No! Stop!

The underground
resistance movement in Gilead

provided the means
for me to escape.

I couldn't leave
my daughter Hannah behind.

So I stayed.

To bring her back to her father.

[gasps softly]

I'm her mother.

It is my job to protect her.

And I failed.

[Luke sobbing]

Luke, I need to tell you about
the last time I saw Hannah.

[church bells tolling]

I'm sorry.

Luke, I'm...

-I'm so sorry.
-No.

They put Hannah
in that situation.

Those fucking animals.

Whatever happened there,

that is on them,
that is not on you.

She's safe now.

Nick told me she's back home.

She's home?

Home is here.
Home is here with us.

I know.

We have to find her
and bring her to Canada.

How?

How do we do that from here?

We can do it.

We can do it together.

Hey, June. June...

I promise you.

We can do it together.

Let me show you
what I've tried so far.

Yeah, I leaned on everyone
in the Embassy.

They run when they see me now.

This is our lawsuits
that went nowhere.

This is info from activists
in the underground.

These are interviews
with people who escaped.

You did all this?

There's not a day that went by
that I shouldn't have done more.

[footsteps approaching]

-[Moira] Hey.
-[Luke] Oh, hey.

What's goin' on?
Why's all this out?

[June] I told Luke about
the last time I saw her.

He knows everything now.
About Hannah.

[Luke] Yeah, I got a VIP
on my side now.

[Moira] Well, you got 86 kids
outta Gilead.

You have power. Use it.

Thanks.

Okay, so we bang
on every door again,

and we call up anyone
that could be of use in Toronto.

[June] Okay, who has
the best resources?

[scoffs] I mean, nobody so far.
Not in Canada.

What about someone new?

In Gilead.

[line ringing]

[static]

[Lawrence over phone]
Hello, June Osborn.

And hello, Canada.

Thank you for taking the call.

How are you?

Oh, I'm peachy.
The weather's fine, too.

You must want something.

I need your help.

It's about getting Hannah.

[sighs]

Again with this?

She's my daughter.

Yeah, and you're
Mother of the Year.

What a nightmare
you've been for her.

Just leave the poor kid alone.

She needs to be with me
and her father.

Does she? Honestly.
Does she, June?

-She has a lovely home--
-[June] That is not her home!

It's all she knows.
You wanna rip her out of there?

No one will love her like we do.

Your love fucks people up.

You're a fountain
of heartache and trouble.

But you'll be happy to know
that, uh, your friend is okay.

[June] What friend?

The one with the eye patch.

Janine?

[Lawrence]
She is safe and sound
at The Red Center.

No, she's...

Fuck. No.

[Lawrence] Indeed she is. Um...

She's got a roof over her head,
three meals a day,

and Aunt Lydia
to tuck her in at night.

[sniffles]

Okay, look,

the Americans
will push to revise Section 22B

in Canada's Trade Agreement
with Gilead if you help me.

[laughs] The Americans
don't have a pot to piss in.

They still think they can
boss around the Canadians.

No, you have to do better.

Tell you what.

I'll make you a deal.

I'll get you Hannah

if you get me ten of the kids
you flew out of here.

I hear a lot of them
are struggling.

They miss their parents
in Gilead.

You know we're never
giving those children back.

Come on.
That's how you negotiate?

The June I know would bargain,
at least, to save her daughter.

Say, five of those kids
for Hannah?

I can't.

No.

[Lawrence] Wow.

You've gone soft in Toronto.

Must be all that maple syrup.

We love her.

We are her family.

Joseph, I know
you are a good man.

I've heard they're hard to find.

Now is not the time for me
to stir up any trouble.

[June] I promise you that
we will do everything

that we can to protect you...

June, you're free.

You're free.

Try to be grateful for that
and move on.

If you can.

[indistinct radio chatter]

[door opens]

[door closes]

[Aunt Lydia]
Such childish nonsense.

Wasting everyone's time.

You have been given
a precious gift, dear.

A second chance to serve God.

To atone for all the trouble
you've caused.

[thuds]

Now, be a good girl and eat.

It is so hard to be good

when you've had
such a bad example.

Esther, you must
cleanse yourself

of those corrupting influences.

You must be strong.

[scrubbing]

[Aunt Lydia] Janine.

[door closes]

Esther has had
a little accident.

-Clean it up?
-[Janine] Yes, Aunt Lydia.

[Aunt Lydia] Thank you, dear.

God loves us for our labors.

[rain pattering]

It's another jersey.

The home team.

See how the people
embrace us now.

[chuckles] Look at this.

"For the future Commander."

[chuckles]

His father's son.
Ah, isn't that clever?

I'm sorry.
It's just not the baby shower

that I had imagined.

I know, but take comfort
in their support.

These people understand
our mission was pure.

Our baby inspires them.

Look.

We're "beacons of hope."

Read this.

Am I allowed now?

Now that nobody's watching?

I've made mistakes.

If only we could start over.

Well, we can't, Fred.
Here we are.

Yeah.

Well, God has a plan for us.

You must carry on,
raise our boy.

Spread the Lord's word.
Yeah, they're ready to listen.

You know, the world should
hear your voice again.

Write a book.

You've done it before.

We must be patient.

We can't let her starve herself.

It could impact
her ability to conceive.

That girl needs another
correction to encourage her.

Perhaps you're right.
She's been so defiant.

I say restraints
and a feeding tube,

so she gets
the proper nutrition.

I don't see
why she needs her tongue.

She won't use it.

[gasps]

It's all right, dear.

Why don't you
go into the kitchen

and see if they need your help.

Yes, Aunt Lydia.
Sorry. Thank you.

[door opens]

-She means well.
-[door closes]

She's trying.

-She's been very helpful.
-Yes.

Yes. Such a lovely,
fruitful girl.

We can't keep her here forever.

Yes, I agree.

We will find an appropriate
posting for her. Soon.

Except, what Commander would
want a girl with her history?

Any family would be blessed
to have Janine!

She has given two beautiful
children to Gilead!

Exactly why she should be sent
to the Breeding Colonies

-as was the original plan.
-[Aunt Lydia scoffs]

We mustn't forget how valuable
she has been in this district.

If it hadn't been
for Janine's intervention,

that poor Putnam child
would never have survived.

Perhaps.

But any special treatment,
consider the precedent.

Thank you for your suggestions.

I will give them
careful consideration...

then make my decision.

This chicken is dry.

[coughs]

[exhales]

Ah! Thank you for the tea.

[sighs]

You'll be all right, dear.
I'll take care of you.

Um, actually,
I wanted to say something.

About Mrs. Keyes. Esther. Sorry.

She's not as tough as you think.

She's just acting that way
because she's scared.

She had a really hard life
on the farm.

She was abused,

not just by her husband,
but by a lot of men.

I just think
you should know that.

I see.

Well, we have tried
to be understanding with her.

She is a difficult girl.

Maybe she needs
to feel safe here.

Like, if she's refusing to eat,

maybe if someone told her
what would happen

if you don't obey?

I just think she deserves
a chance before you...

[clears throat]

I will put Esther's correction
on hold.

For now.

Thank you, Aunt Lydia.

Thank you so much.

Perhaps she would benefit
from your unique perspective.

Why don't you
bring her breakfast tomorrow?

You two can have a little chat.

'Kay.

[footsteps receding]

[sighs]

[sobs]

[sniffles]

Oh, hey.

[Luke] I was thinking about
what happened with Lawrence.

Yeah, I'm sorry.
I really tried--

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I get it.

He's a fuckin' asshole.

Uh, but there's, um...

There's someone else
who I think could help.

Nick.

'Cause he knew that Hannah
had gone back to the Mackenzies,

and, uh, so he might know
where she lives,

or he could find out.

Um...

Yeah. I mean, maybe. I...

I don't know.

He's a Commander now, right?
Big man. He's got access.

So, we should probably ask him
before that changes.

[inhales deeply] You know.

Yeah.

Okay, yeah.

Maybe Tuello could
set up a call.

So you think Nick would help?

I think he would do anything
for me and for Nichole.

Yeah.

I don't think you should call,

with people listening and stuff.
You should...

It'd probably be better
just to meet him in person.

You know, just make it safe.
Someplace protected.

Right?

You want me
to meet up with Nick?

[laughs]

No. No, I don't want you
to meet with Nick.

But you said
he'd do anything for you.

So, this is our best chance
to get Hannah. And so...

I think you should
take Nichole with you.

How's he gonna say no to you
if you bring him his daughter?

So, what do you think?

I think we have
to try everything.

Yeah.

For Hannah.

[softly] For Hannah.

Yeah.

Good. Good, good, good.

All right, then.

I'm gonna go wash up.

[knock on door]

[door beeps, unlocks]

[footsteps approaching]

Surprise!

[chuckles]

Naomi. Oh.
It's wonderful to see you.

Oh, I pled my case for months,
trying to visit.

But your due date approaching,
they finally gave us permission.

-[door locks, beeps]
-Warren is here, too,

to see Fred.

Oh, well,
isn't this our lucky day?

Such a miracle.

You look well.
How are you feeling?

Fine. Very...
Very good, considering.

Well, this is nicer
than I expected. It's...

It's light and airy.

How are you? How's Angela?

Sit, please. Oh, she's my joy.

She's running around.
Learning so many words.

There's a bit of an issue
with biting,

but maybe that's genetic.

So...

I'm afraid that
they won't give us much time.

Uh, the...

Security opened these
when I arrived, but from Leah.

Oh, thank you. It's beautiful.

-And this is from Grace.
-Thank you.

And then this is from Caroline.
There's something from everyone.

We're so thrilled
for you, Serena.

I wasn't sure, after my actions
concerning Fred.

Oh, no. You did what
you had to do as a mother,

to be with Nichole.

And if the good Lord
has blessed you with this child,

then who am I to judge?

Well, thank you, Naomi.

You've always been
a great friend.

I want you to know that,

if this ordeal isn't over
by the time the baby comes,

it would be our honor
to raise him in our home.

Oh. That's, um...

That's very kind of you.

I mean, you don't want
strangers in Canada to do it.

He would still be yours,
of course, if you're released.

Although Fred's prospects
are less optimistic,

I expect to be free
once proceedings are over with.

It will be a fresh start
with our son.

Well, that's wonderful.
You can...

You can come home.

That baby belongs in Gilead.
You both do.

I don't think the Commanders
feel the same way.

Oh, nonsense.

You'll return
with your own child.

Like a hero.

[Commander Fred] Oh!

You shouldn't have.

[Warren] Feel it.

It's firm, right?

Smooth draw.

Full body flavor.

How I've craved a good cigar.

Light it up.

I'll save it for later.

Something to look forward to.

Many thanks
to my brothers back home.

Well, we so respect and admire

how you've weathered
this crisis.

You stayed loyal to Gilead,

true to God's word.

From God, I draw strength.
I feel Him with me every moment.

I hoped to say the same
for my fellow Commanders.

My apologies.

We should have
reached out to you sooner.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Not at all.

It pains me, Fred,
knowing your situation.

But, priorities.

The damage done when
all those children were stolen?

It's been difficult for us
to repair.

I can imagine.

Well, I pressed to retaliate,

but old war horses like us,

we're being put out to pasture.

As you can see, my pasture's
rather small and fenced in.

Has there been
any negotiation on my behalf?

Such as?

[scoffs]

A prisoner exchange?

Perhaps a promise to advance
more humanitarian efforts?

What if we negotiate?

Yes. What if?

We'd embolden more kidnappings.

More Commanders
being held hostage.

Think of the precedent.

I'm thinking of my years
of service to the Republic.

I'm thinking of
my wife and my son!

We will continue to send you
our thoughts and prayers.

[door creaks]

[electricity buzzing]

I knew you'd come!

How did you get past them?

You should eat
before we catch up.

It sucks to be hungry.

I know,
I almost starved in Chicago.

Chicago?

Mm-hmm.

You made it all the way there?

Eat.

How'd you even sneak this
out of the kitchen?

What happened?
Was June with you?

How did you all get there?

Oh, uh, we took a train
and then, um,

some people took us in.

Then we got bombed.

It's really scary.

I was actually kind of relieved
when they picked me up,

even though they brought me
back here.

Nothing is worse than here.

[chomping]

[exhales]

-So, is June still in Chicago?
-Forget June.

She's not here.

We're here.

And you have to
take care of yourself now.

If you keep misbehaving,

there will be consequences,
okay?

So you're gonna have to eat
for them, too, not just for me.

[spits]

You didn't sneak in!

They sent you.

Go on and call
your Aunt friends.

I don't care what they do to me.

Yes, you do.

They're not
going to let you die.

They will keep hurting you,
again and again,

until you do what they say!
That is their job!

It's no big deal.

You just have to eat.

You need to stay alive

so you can be here
when things get better.

I'll come back.

And I'll keep coming back
until you eat.

And when you do,
I'll tell Aunt Lydia,

and then she'll
let you go outside.

It's a really nice day.

[door opens]

[door closes]

Hi, boo-boo. All buckled in.

I, uh...
I got some extra diapers

and I put some snacks in there
as well.

I just... I sliced up
some peaches and...

-Oh, thank you.
-Yeah, I...

Okay,
the officers'll follow you.

They'll give you some privacy,
but stay close by.

When you get there,
keep it brief.

All right. Thanks.

Hey, I need you
not to worry, okay?

[sputters] I'm not gonna be
able to do that.

All right.

I'm gonna be here
when you get home. Okay?

'Kay.

[engine starts]

[Nichole babbles]

[soft pensive
piano music playing]

[wind howling]

[Nick] June.

Freedom agrees with you.

Thanks.

So, how... How's it all going
down there in Gilead?

Hanging in there.

Poor choice of words.

Thank you for meeting me.

[Nichole cooing]

Thanks for inviting me.

[chuckles softly]

She's a little bigger,
isn't she?

Oh. She's a whole
different person.

Hi there, sweetheart.

Hi, Nichole. Hi.

Um, I have a Secret Service
with me,

so I can't stay long.

Okay. Let's go talk inside.

[June] Okay.

[Nichole gurgling]

[Nichole continues cooing]

Hi, sweetie.

I'm sure you're curious
what this is about.

I don't wanna put you
in any danger.

But if there's anything
you can find out about Hannah--

When you made it to Canada,

I knew you'd keep
looking for her,

so I started putting
some stuff together.

Never thought I'd
give it to you in person.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

She lives in
the Westward Territory?

Colorado. Colorado Springs.

This is her home.
Her... Is this her school?

Yeah. Domestic Arts.
She's a good student.

[chuckles]

Yeah.

What are these? Are these...
What are these names?

They're friendlies
who live in the area.

They took those pictures for me.

What pictures?

[gasps]

Getting her out's impossible.

There's Guardians everywhere.

At least you know
where she is now.

And I'm here...
to do what I can.

You did all this for me.

I should've run away with you
when I had the chance.

Yeah.

We probably should've gone
to that beach in Hawaii.

[June sighs]

[Nichole fussing]

Oh, my God.

-Hi.
-Here she is.

Hi. Hi. Hi.

Who's that? Hi.

Wanna come say hi?

She's stubborn.

I'm not surprised.

[chuckles]

How dare you.

Oh, I got something. One sec.

Shopping options were limited
in Gilead, but...

[June chuckles]

I thought maybe she could
keep this with her.

[June] Look at that.

Look at that. Thank you.

My beautiful girl.

[June laughs]

[Nichole cooing]

-Who's this? Um...
-What is that?

What is that? What is that?

[both laugh]

Mm. What is that?

[somber cello music playing]

Keep yourself safe.

Hey, June.

Try and be happy.

[chuckles]

Yeah.

You, too.

-[Nichole babbling]
-You okay, sweetie?

[somber cello music continues]

[Commander Fred] The ingratitude
and disrespect.

[Serena] It's unconscionable.

[Commander Fred]
It's like they've erased me.

Left me here to rot.

[Serena] God knows
what you've sacrificed.

May He show you His favor
and grant you peace.

Our son's freedom will be
what sustains me.

They could take him away.

Gilead could come for our son.

A mother alone?

They think the baby
belongs to the State.

Naomi said that?

Naomi said,
"Come back to Gilead."

As if I wouldn't
face retribution.

[inhales]

They'd send me to The Colonies.

They could make me a Handmaid.

That's not gonna happen,
I promise.

I'll do everything in my power

to make sure
you and our son are protected.

What power?

What could you
possibly do from in here?

Have faith.

Prepare the new girls
for another inspection.

Their behavior last time
was deplorable.

-Yeah.
-[door opens]

[door closes]

Blessed be the fruit.

May the Lord open.

I hope you enjoyed your meal?

Yes,

I am grateful to the Lord
for His bounty, Aunt Lydia.

Praise be.

And praise be to you, my dear,

for your
very valuable assistance.

Thank you, Aunt Lydia.

How lucky we are
to have you with us.

Run along. Get some fresh air.

[chuckles]

[door opens]

[door closes]

To dawdle is an affront to God.

-Yes, Aunt Lydia.
-Yes, Aunt Lydia.

Yeah.

[car engine stops]

[chuckles]

[both chuckle]

[Luke] Oh, wow.

So, a success.

I'm happy for you.

Thank you for making it happen.

So... So, what happens next?

How do we get her back?

Yeah, you've got a good man
in Gilead who can help you now.

That's true.

Um, we have a new asset
in Toronto now, too.

He knows how
the system operates.

He could advise us.

Okay. Who is it?

Fred Waterford.

Waterford?

[Mark] He has agreed to, uh,
share his wealth of knowledge.

Inside information about Gilead.

All its top players,
future plans.

Why would he do that?

In exchange for his freedom.

The prosecution has
dropped its charges.

[Luke] What?

[Moira] You made
a deal with him?

That fucking piece of crap?

I understand why you're upset.

Upset? This is fucking bullshit!

So, my testimony spooked him.

And you knew that.

And then you used that
to flip him?

[Mark] You testified so
the world could hear the truth.

[Moira] So, you get your asset,
and he gets to walk.

What kind of fucked-up
justice is that?

Sometimes, you have to
let one fish go

to catch a lot of
other bigger fish.

Why don't you bring that intel
by my office tomorrow,

we'll go through it together?

See you then.

You fucking believe that?

[door opens]

[door closes]

June.

June!

June!

That man is a fucking rapist!

That man is a fucking rapist,
and you know what he did to me!

-You know what he did to me!
-Hey, hey, get off of her!

You know!

You know he's a fucking rapist!

You know what he did
to those women!

I'm gonna fucking kill you!

You know what he did
to all of us!

I will kill you!

I will kill you!
