The Handmaid's Tale

Previously on The Handmaid's Tale...

We have some important guests tonight

Deputy Ambassador, Castillo, puedo presentar our Handmaid, Offred.

It is a pleasure to meet you.

Offred, what is your given name? From before.

I don't use that anymore.

Tonight is a celebration of what we have achieved.

The children of Gilead.

All brought forth in this district by our Handmaids.

You don't understand. We're prisoners.

They took my daughter. Please do something.

Offred? I want to help you.

I think, I can get a message to your husband.

My husband's dead.

Lucas Bankole.

He's alive. Please, write something.

I'll try to get it to him.

Ahhh!

Are you okay? Is she all right?

Come on. Come on, baby.

Come here.

Come here, come here, honey. Let Mommy check you.

Come here. Come over here.

Is it your head? Did the car go bump?

It's okay.

All right. You've gotta take her. Okay?

Go. It's about two miles north. No, no, no.

He said someone's gonna meet us.

All right, go with Mommy. What about you?

What about you? No. No, no, it's all right. You go. Go!

Run, run, run! Run, run!

Run.

Watch your step. Careful. Watch the rock!

Come on, go quickly.

Pop. Six. Pull.

Come on.

Pop. Six. Pull.

Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Show me your hands.

His pressure's coming up. 105 over 62.

Watch it. It's icy.

Just keep him alive. Captain's got questions...

Ah!

Where are we right now?

Where's Route 201?

Hey. Hey, wake up.

Route 201? Where's Route...

Come on. Come on.

Okay.

Argh!

Should... Pop it, put six in.

Pop it, pull it, six bullets.

Pop it, pull it, six... Argh.

Pop it, six in.

Pop it, pull it, six bullets...

Ah!

Fuck!

Oh, God. Oh, God.

Okay.

Okay.

We're just out for breakfast.

That's not illegal.

Not yet.

She all right? We didn't give her too much?

No. She's okay.

She's okay.

We should have left when Moira did.

We had to wait for the visas.

When I lost my job, we should've left then.

Yeah, well, I can't just make the visa process

move faster just because I want it to,

all right? I know. That's not what I'm saying.

Moira is crossing the border on foot.

I know. We've got a kid.

I know that. There's a difference.

I'm just saying we should've left when she did.

I know.

Is that him?

Whitford, right?

Guess, uh, we should've set a password or something.

You look like your mama, little June.

I'd know you anywhere.

Thank you for doing this, Mr. Whitford.

Oh, I owe her.

Your mama gave me the snip a few years back after they made it illegal.

It's no time for kids, you know?

She zonked on something? Benadryl.

I gave it to her with breakfast.

Okay.

Well, we've got about an hour or so.

I need your phones.

Yeah, we turned 'em off.

Good.

Are you kidding me? They can track these things location services or not.

That backpack needs to get going too.

Oh, no. That's all we brought with us.

Sorry.

It can't look like you're running.

Uh, yeah, you know,

people carry backpacks on the street all the time,

so, like, it doesn't necessarily say that we're leaving.

You wanna take that chance?

Here you go.

Wait. Hold on. Hold on.

I'm... I'm taking 'em.

So...

Okay.

I'll be driving.

All right. You two and the rug rat will be in the trunk.

Huh? No, no.

I can't put the kid... In the trunk. In the trunk?

Well, then forget this.

'Cause you'll never make it out of the county.

Okay.

Luke.

You all right?

I got it. Come on.

Yeah, she's fine.

Thank you. Come on.

Got her?

All right.

That a girl.

There you go.

And Fluffy.

Okay.

All right. All right.

Where's the Benadryl?

Oh, I don't know.

He threw it out.

Shoot.

It's all right.

What if she wakes up? Nah, she won't wake up.

You sure? Yeah, she's all right.

She's all right.

Hey. Hey. Jesus.

It's okay.

Look at me.

Luke. Luke. June. June.

June bug? June bug?

June bug?

Look at me.

It's gonna be all right.

Hey, hey, here. Just stay here.

We're gonna be all right.

I promise you, we're gonna be all right.

We're gonna be all right.

You okay?

Yeah. I'm just really cozy.

Come on.

Do you remember

the sublet we had in Sommerville?

Mmm-hmm.

This is bigger.

It is.

Yeah, this is much bigger.

It's a lot bigger.

All good.

Nothing in here. Thank you.

You good?

I took his sister to the prom back in the day.

Believe you, me, he owes me a fuckin' favor.

Won't be much longer.

Welcome to your little slice of heaven.

As long as this slice of heaven has a shower.

You got her? Yeah. Yeah.

Hey come on, Hannah Banana. Come on.

Oh, look at you, you're tired.

Hey, how close are the neighbors?

Two miles. Six miles. Three miles.

Happy?

Hey, look.

Look at this.

It's snowing.

Are you all right? I'm hungry.

You're hungry?

Got food inside.

Mmm, you hear that?

Make yourself at home. Is there any heat?

Yeah, there's a wood burning stove

in the corner, but it sucks.

I'd just use the fireplace, instead.

Hey, smile.

You're safe.

Hey, you want to pick out your bedroom? Yeah?

All right, let's go. Come on.

So, what now?

You stay here.

There's lots of patrols between here and the border. Mmm-hmm.

It isn't safe for the ladies.

You ever shot a gun?

Hmm? Uh, Yeah. Uh, yeah. In college.

All right.

Revolvers are pretty straightforward.

Thumb hits the release latch. Cylinder pops out. Don't want it to spin.

Hit the ejector rod. Dump your brass. Right.

Six bullets in.

Pull that hammer back. Fire.

You got that? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah I got it. Got it.

I'll make a run to Canada to get you some passports

and I'll be back post haste.
