I echo pretty much all of these feelings. This show is so intense. I can't even handle it sometimes.
Even though it was devastating, I LOVED what they did with Eden's death. For Serena especially. Eden was who she was hoping her "daughter" would grow up to be, and those dreams were shattered with the terrible reality of the situation. The baby will grow up to be a 3rd class citizen. She won't be able to read. She won't have any rights, any future. She won't have love. That was a powerful bit of storytelling right there. Gosh, I hope Serena doesn't give up after her attempt at trying to allow women to read because I want her to tear Gilead apart from the inside. (And get that bastard Fred.) She's a ticking time bomb. A very, very intelligent one.
Aunt Lydia was so unexpected!! That actress, though. I think she's most underappreciated one on that show. She is a brilliant actress. Her micro expressions. Anyways.
Commander Lawrence. Man. You go, dude. You go, Mrs. Lawrence for guilt tripping your husband to make some things fricken right. I AM SO HAPPY EMILY GETS TO LEAVE.
Rita and the Marthas. <3
I agree. I think she should have gotten out. Add Emily into the mix with her, Luke, and Moira...they would have been a power team. Also, they could do a LOT from the outside. They would have two Handmaids speaking to the rest of the world about what is going on in Gilead. They could get Canada and other countries to help create change.
But, also. Where the hell is she going to go? Are they just going to catch her again? If so, how is that going to help Hannah?? She can't exactly just stroll up to Hannah's house and kidnap her. It just seems so ill advised to have NO plan in a place where she can't really hide. She's already pulled the "kidnapped" card multiple times. It's not going to work anymore. It wouldn't be fair to ask the Marthas to help again when they already risked everything.
Fred is so obsessed with her. I guess he might take her back. Then her and Serena can cause trouble together, but I think some things might even be out of his hands now.
