Not sure why Rita would know where Hannah is when even CL didn't know.
I'm so looking forward to the next series now. I think the handmaids have been out all night tending to those who were shot & searching for June. They only found her at dawn but still have time to get her back to CL's house & return to their own placements before they're missed. I think some handmaids did appear with children which is why they were there. Commander Creepy had a handmaid despite having numerous children already so it does happen that there are households with both children & handmaids.
I'm hoping that either June is pregnant & that affords her some protection for now or that Gilead assumes she was on the plane. If the others can get her back to CL's then they can hide her in the basement. CL, Beth & the other Martha can all pretend they didn't know what June was planning or where she could possibly be now. Once the heat had died down perhaps CL could forge some paperwork & have her sent to another district to help with the Martha network there. Or she could just go underground to try & find Hannah. Perhaps it'll turn out that Hannah is where June told Janine that her dead son was - California, I think. Hannah could be living happily by the beach & not really want to go on the run with June.
The Marthas could quite easily have returned from their midnight stroll & lay down on the floor & waited until the rohypnol wore off the parents & pretended to be groggy too. "Huh? What happened? Why am I on the floor...? Your daughter? Nope, I've not seen her, soz..."
I'm wondering whether Serena might say she was just trying to help June. Handmaids only get so many placements before they're deemed infertile & shipped off. By taking her to Nick Saint Serena was just trying to give her a chance to survive. Of course June wouldn't be able to take care of their baby & they'd all be in danger if anyone admitted publicly that C. Waterford wasn't the father so Serena promised to take care of the baby & love her like she was her own. That's all she's been trying to do. She even went so far as to walk her husband into a trap that would see him in prison for the rest of his life just so she could fulfil her promise to June. She's totally selfless & only has June & Nichole's best interests at heart... Poor Serena being set up by her vindictive, abusive husband who's just trying to get his sentence reduced & punish her for bringing him to justice. He arranged for her finger to be cut off just for reading the Bible, don't ya know!?
They'd better have more evidence than Fred's word if they're actually going to secure a conviction. Maybe Nick's in on it too. He knows what they did to June - I can't see him wanting either of them living happily in Canada, let alone having custody of his baby. Can you imagine what would happen if June or Nick made it to Canada & Serena had been living freely & officially adopted Nichole?!
I loved Rita & Emily's moment. Every scene with Luke leaves me cold so I wasn't particularly bothered that he was waiting for Hannah, I just thought, "it must suck for him." I was also a bit "meh" when Rita was telling him that June did it. Well, "meh" about him - I was mostly thinking that she didn't need him & his general wet blanket routine. Perhaps he was holding her back before & she'd actually have been a fierce warrior woman pre-Gilead if she hadn't been so busy playing the good little woman role to keep the man who wandered away so easily from his first wife.
Maybe Gilead's changed her, maybe it's just brought to the fore a repressed part of who she is. We know her mum was pretty outspoken & strong. She's not completely changed though. She's not as ruthless as she'd like to think - she endangered them all because she couldn't bring herself to shoot the Martha. Or perhaps she is that ruthless but realised the sound of a gunshot could draw more attention to them.
