Handmaids Tale season 4 for discussion (SPOILERS)

[BG2015]

What did we all think? I was a bit ??? when she was captured again!!

The hannah bit was bad. I'm not sure who got shot and who got hit at the end 🤔

Surely they would have just executed her?? I know they want to keep as many handmaids as possible to replace the children but I was a bit about her surviving this as the obvious ringleader.
Very pleased to see more of Nick though. Can't decide if I want her to end up in Canada with Luke or with Nick.

Oh when was it on? And on what channel?

Are you watching in the UK? How have you accessed it?

You can access it via a vpn.

I use express vpn. Basically it tricks your computer into thinking the internet connection is in another country, in this case, USA.

Then go to Amazon.com and buy a Hulu gift card, set up a Hulu account. You can't pay for Hulu using a UK debit or credit card so buying a Hulu gift card is the workaround.

Connect to express vpn and then open your Hulu account and watch!

Does not work on iPhone or iPad. Not sure about Android but 100% on a laptop. I connected my laptop to our tv with a hdmi cable.

Don't think you can get it officially yet.

I thought the same! But like my DH says "it's a TV programme"

I think it's only June and Janine that escaped. Lay in bed last night thinking if they'd killed Lydia (again, why wouldn't you?) and then pounced on the guard and killed him they could have driven the Red truck onwards!

But suppose it was a spur of the moment thing.

I have it on android and ios. Works fine.

They can't kill Lydia - testaments!

I think with the bombing last season they must be desperate for handmaids still.

It was nice to see Rita.

The train!!! OMG, ep 3 was the best of the 3 by far. I love how they have no shame in killing characters off.

Of course The Testaments - forgot about that although not read it yet!

There were only 5 handmaids in the red van, one shot, two hit by the train.

I thought she would have at least smacked Lydia on her way out of the van. I would have done.

@Footloosefancyfree Thank you!!!! I had so many things to do today and somehow ended up watching all 3 episodes back to back.

I'm watching it on an Australian TV website, where it's streamed for free, I think the day after the US. My internet security software has a VPN so just set that to Australia.

I watched 2 episodes last night, and the 3rd just now. I was holding my breath for pretty much the whole time from when they got out of the van to when the train hit them. At that point I jumped out of my skin.

I love Rita. I want to see her face to face with Serena and bring her down a peg or two. I feel like I can't manage only watching one episode a week!!

Oh that will be an amazing episode if it ever happens

I agree that it seems crazy they haven't killed June but then again, it wouldn't be the same show without her.

I think she'll die eventually but will get Hannah to Canada first.

Gutted that Alma died & the Martha from Jezebels too.

What happened to the wife Esther? What happened to the women in the brothel?

Looking forward to episode 4.

I assumed the wife was also being tortured or at least in some way mistreated, but unsure. I loved Alma, she was a great character.

I am not sure what to make of nick. I think he wants her alive so he doesn't feel guilty, but he doesn't really try to help her. He seems higher up in the system nowadays doesn't he.

I've never been sure of Nick. I didn't like Luke either until they showed the story of how he escaped and the guilt he's felt since. I definitely prefer Luke to Nick and would love June to make her way back to him.

It was heartbreaking to see the boy Asher / James and how he wanted to go back to Gilead - so confusing for those poor children. Hope they follow that up some more and we see happy endings for those kids.

I feel so nervous about the invasion of Canada - surely that wouldn't succeed but the thought that the freedom that everyone has in Canada is so close to being lost is frightening as borders mean nothing if they're not respected. All feels like it's building reminiscent of WW2.

When does episode 4 air on Hulu out of interest? Loved the first 3 episodes of this season so far

Next 2 episodes are on 5th and 12th May.

Fab, many thanks.
