@pemba that could be a flashback, could be about the previous handmaiden who hung herself? Or as you said a flashback to when June escaped.

Although, Someone else also mentioned in the previous thread there was another scene not yet shown with Fred, in a car with crowds outside. Again could be a flashback. Or could be he is safe and sound and more powerful than ever with all other senior commanders wiped out...

Will find out soon hurrah Grin

I am finding these threads brilliant ... getting so much from everybody’s contributions.
I can’t wait for tonight’s episode

Probably repeating what has been said before but ... I am a terrible binge watcher
I binge watched the first series of handmaids and always orange is the new black
It used to leave me disturbed
I am finding one episode a week much far easier to cope with .. its amazing tv with superb performances but it truly is harrowing.
I genuinely need time to recover each week .

I can’t watch until after work tomorrow!!

I’m going to be agonising about it all day!

Under his eye!

RedorBlack · 01/07/2018 19:37

I think this will unite Serena and June, if Fred or dead or injured they will need to work together to keep their future with the baby safe. Better the devil you know...

I also think they will bring Janine back as she hasn't been in the colonies long and has proved herself "fruitful". I'd love them to bring back Emily but perhaps she is too far gone into radiation poisoning to risk a healthy baby?

Roussette · 01/07/2018 19:43

Even Radio Times has done some spoilers about tonight's episode. It all sounds a bit gruesome.

DashOfMagic · 01/07/2018 19:46

sticks fingers in ears la la la la la la la la la la la

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 01/07/2018 19:47

Yes there were definitely spoilers in the trailer involving scenes not yet seen

I am on pins for 9pm 👀

DashOfMagic · 01/07/2018 19:48

Goddamn Radio times. They spoiled the red wedding for me Angry

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 01/07/2018 19:49

Oh and regarding whether Gilead has a paper, for that they’d need a press, and the Boston Globe is an abandoned shell so doubtful

I still want answers about how far reaching Gilead is

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 01/07/2018 19:51

DashOfMagic

That’s one of the reasons I was so glad to read the book (Got 3) first. It’s absolutely impossible to come to GOT fresh now without it being spoiled in some way by comments gathered from media coverage

SparkwoodAnd21 · 01/07/2018 20:12

I am not going to be able to watch it till Friday so EVERYONE STOP TALKING.

DashOfMagic · 01/07/2018 20:18

Oh sorry to hear that Sparkwood.

respectful silence

FaultySpice · 01/07/2018 20:29

Feeling genuinely nervous about tonight's episode!

Sassenach85 · 01/07/2018 21:02

Here we go!!!!!

Destinysdaughter · 01/07/2018 21:04

Can't wait!

I am being made to watch love Island

Those coffins are red!

Aunt Lydia looks devastated.

RedorBlack · 01/07/2018 21:07

In their names...

Their names! Not their bloody ofcommander name!

kalapattar · 01/07/2018 21:08

For 1 moment, I thought those were the commanders
They were the Handmaid coffins.

Hygge · 01/07/2018 21:08

More Handmaid's than Commanders Sad

And nobody knows Ofglen's real name.

Destinysdaughter · 01/07/2018 21:09

Why have so many pp been hung??

kalapattar · 01/07/2018 21:10

Why have so many pp been hung

Possible involvement?

It's what the Nazis did, it's what ISIS do

RedorBlack · 01/07/2018 21:11

To send a message I guess, and to instill fear

Bringonspring · 01/07/2018 21:11

Nicks protector (commander) is dead then?!

Hygge · 01/07/2018 21:11

That's Nick's Commander gone, just as we thought last week.

He's not going to get on with the new one.
