Hi all

Here is the next thread for those who are watching The Handmaid's Tale Season 2 on Channel 4. Please don't put any spoilers on this - the other thread (for those in other countries who are watching ahead of the UK) is:

Come on nick.. Your the adult.. Talk to her,

Bringonspring · 22/07/2018 21:47

It’s moving a bit slowly to.

MonkeySlutIsBlown · 22/07/2018 21:48

I think that's the longest conversation nick and Eden have had apart from their vows

kashleesi · 22/07/2018 21:48

This is awful. I wish nick would give her a hug or something she’s just a kid

RedorBlack · 22/07/2018 21:48

Bloody hell. We wondered if they would crush the positivity of last week, I guess that answers that question.

For what just happened to June...I have no words

Eden and Nick, hell hath no fury....

kashleesi · 22/07/2018 21:49

And the dogs trust advert song is Janines song this is all too much 😢

Efferlunt · 22/07/2018 21:50

Seriously Nick can handle this better. Just talk to her!

RedorBlack · 22/07/2018 21:50

I actually feel for nick. He's an eye, probably trained to be emotionally detached. He is not equipped to deal with this

AWomanIsAnAdultHumanFemale · 22/07/2018 21:51

Oh poor Eden. She actually tried to stifle her cries when he told her to stop crying. She is so conditioned to obey her husband. Sad

WitchSharkadder · 22/07/2018 21:51

That truly was horrific. I don’t think it was gratuitous though. I think we needed to be reminded of the true horrors of Gilead and just how evil Fred is. Margaret’s Atwood has said time and time again that everything is taken from real life and women are raped my violent men everyday. It is a reminder (once again) of just how dangerous misogyny is.

SoniaShoe · 22/07/2018 21:51

I'm a bit in shock from all that

OhHolyJesus · 22/07/2018 21:52

I know Serena held her down before when she was raped but to rape her to induce labour takes it to another level of disgusting. She really knows now bounds. It's vile.

AWomanIsAnAdultHumanFemale · 22/07/2018 21:52

Urgh!! How Is she not screaming at him being near her??

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 22/07/2018 21:52

if June told Lydia

The Handmaids collectively participated in an execution of a man who'd raped a Handmaid in series one

Unfortunately she can't testify against Fred she's not allowed, she'd need a second witness as Serena joined in she's not likely to help

Roussette · 22/07/2018 21:52

Oh god what is this... I wouldnt trust Fred, is this going to be awful

AWomanIsAnAdultHumanFemale · 22/07/2018 21:53

He kissed her!!? Shock poor June!

MonkeySlutIsBlown · 22/07/2018 21:53

Please say it's to see Hannah!!! Take Hannah and June and drive nick just bloody drive!!

MygirlKeith · 22/07/2018 21:53

Please tell me he’s going to get her out of there

RedorBlack · 22/07/2018 21:53

Come on guys, take the chance and run

Crinkle77 · 22/07/2018 21:53

What the fuck is going on with the commander. One minute he is raping her the next planning a surprise

Destinysdaughter · 22/07/2018 21:54

Surely this is their chance to escape??

Bringonspring · 22/07/2018 21:55

Hey Hannah run!!!

Efferlunt · 22/07/2018 21:55

Surely they know that she needs to feel relaxed and safe if she’s to go into labour

MrsPussinBoots · 22/07/2018 21:56

Oh god Hannah. I don't think I can watch this

Roussette · 22/07/2018 21:57

This is traumatic
