A thread for those watching Season 4 of the Handmaid's Tale on Channel 4 starting this evening. There's another thread for those who have already streamed it via Hulu, so it would be good if we could keep this one free of spoilers for episodes beyond those Channel 4 has broadcast.

Ffs. I'm not sure I can watch this anymore. I'm sure this isn't where Margaret Atwood would have gone with this.

were the two HM on the edge at the farm then,i dont remember them

AndAllOurYesterdays · 04/07/2021 21:29

I too thought Luke would have been pleased she'd saved behind to give Hannah a chance

CruCru · 04/07/2021 21:30

Argh! I liked Cora.

Those were the Marthas in Commander Lawrence’s house.

TheSpottedZebra · 04/07/2021 21:30

Wasn't that the one from the brothel last week, and the young Martha from the waterfords?

GoingGently · 04/07/2021 21:30

Omg I am really claustophobic!!

TheSpottedZebra · 04/07/2021 21:31

Oh no, Cru is right

Crinkle77 · 04/07/2021 21:31

One of them was Beth. She worked as the cook at Jezebel's in season 1.

@OytheBumbler

Is she trying to solely get Hannah back though? She seems to be trying to save all the women of gilead instead so I have some sympathy with Luke.
I think she’s decided she is going to topple Gilead!! Grin but whatever happens I don’t think June will leave Gilead willingly without Hannah. How could she. She has liberated so many children and women - she wouldn’t be able to live with herself if she didn’t exhaust all options trying to get Hannah.
TheSpottedZebra · 04/07/2021 21:33

I wish they'd speak up.

Orangeinmybluelightcup · 04/07/2021 21:33

Do people rhino the whole series will be like this?!
Am only clinging on waiting for it all to hit the fan. ..

Orangeinmybluelightcup · 04/07/2021 21:33

Rhino?! Think!

OytheBumbler · 04/07/2021 21:34

I missed all that conversation sorting out kids! Wish I could work out how to pause it. Angry

GoingGently · 04/07/2021 21:36

Basically Nick fhreatened to kick Lawrence out of his home if he didn't help June

MotionActivatedDog · 04/07/2021 21:36

I’m loving how calm and content that baby is with Luke!! Adorable.

MotionActivatedDog · 04/07/2021 21:37

So nick and Cmdr Lawrence are team June.

Crinkle77 · 04/07/2021 21:38

The Martha's were Beth and Sienna.

GoingGently · 04/07/2021 21:39

Nick would have been much more useful if he'd 'failed' to find June in the first place

Lawrence not showing himself to be very pro-June. More like couldn't really give a shit

MotionActivatedDog · 04/07/2021 21:40

More like couldn't really give a shit

I think that’s his default mode though Grin he gives a shit without appearing to give a shit.

WitchSharkadder · 04/07/2021 21:40

Yes, the marthas on the building were Joseph's marthas from S3. I really liked Beth Sad

BroccoliRob · 04/07/2021 21:41

Why does Commander Lawrence owe Nick?

GoingGently · 04/07/2021 21:41

It's all gone a bit hunger games!

TheSpottedZebra · 04/07/2021 21:46

@BroccoliRob

Why does Commander Lawrence owe Nick?
Wasnt he going to be executed but Nick convinced them to keep him as his experience would be useful.
Topsyair · 04/07/2021 21:47

MotionActivatedDog · 04/07/2021 21:47
