They are completely jumped the shark with June/Waterfords. They have made me hate Gilead scenes.

The dynamic has morphed from a toxic sex slave to a frighting familiarity that is sending a dangerous massage about the core of the show.

June having this kind of dynamic with the Waterfords is unacceptable. Talk about normalizing everything they stand for. I am a bit concern more critics haven't raised alarms over it. Good acting/visuals doesn't make the message they are sending acceptable 

I feel the same, it's strange and really difficult not to tilt my head and go "wait, what?!" every time they're chatting like old friends after everything that happened. 

I can accept it easier between June and Serena because she needs her help and it makes sense that Serena might be looking for a nudge to be the hero and June is ready and willing to give it. But, it makes zero sense with Fred. I'm still shocked he apparently forgave her so easily for just stealing the baby and then returning without it. It's like she spilled some coffee instead and he waved it off.

What does she need Serena's help with that only Serena can/will provide? See this is a manufactured need by the writers. Whatever Serena could provide June with, her male counterpart can. Because Fred is actually the one with any power between the two of them and he's shown more signs of willingness to catapult to June than Serena has. If it has to be either one of them, why is June not focusing her efforts on him? She will go to any lengths and here is the guy with power who've more or less declared his love for her. 

Here is why. It is because this show is exploiting the era of empowered women and they are hoping that we'll get swept up into the "YEAH Women Power!" with Serena Joy and June teaming up to bring down the evil doers of Gilead. It has worked in large part because the Serena Joy/ June pairing has gone over rather well. Regardless of the present. Not even near past because as long as she remains in Gilead and her Hannah is not with her, June continues to be their victim.

I’ve had enough of June, Rory Gilmore, and watching Luke and Moira play wet nurses to Holly/Nicole. Enough of the June/Luke flashbacks. I’d like to learn more about Rita or Aunt Lydia, or some of the other handmaids.

I was really annoyed by the not hating Fred comment. I then watched the 2 minute Inside the S3E4 extra. The producer or director said that that line is in the book. They have all had trouble believing it but because it was in the book they decided to put it in .

Interesting, but honestly, book Fred hasn't done the shit to her that show thread has.  Personally, I think it would be pretty tough to get over being raped while ready to deliver a baby.

That said, Fred has been, and still could be, useful to her, so there is that.  He did let her see her Hannah, and that was huge for her.

June's thoughts about Fred this episode came across to me as nothing more than the writing team's desire to keep June and her rapists linked. 

She mentions her feeling during one of her voiceovers, so this opinion is meant to reflect some kind of internal conflict within her. The bullshit of it all is almost baffling. 

If she were merely trying to keep manipulating Fred for access or favors because he is a man, and he is the only sex with power in Gilead, that's one thing.

But now she isn't "sure" how she feels about her captor and rapist and friend rapist (Moira at Jezebel's) because...more reasons?

Personally I am leaning towards it being just fucking ridiculous plot driven dribble that makes no sense whatsoever, and actually proves just how off the mark the show has become. 

This show wants to keep June and the Waterford's together like the most unholy threesome.

They no longer can write out bedroom rape scenes, so now we get Fred and June conversing in a stranger's kitchen unbothered  and then Serena and June taking a smoke break out by the pool. 

Frankly this whole angle that June is working them both at the same time without any suspicion or hesitancy from the other two, it implies that Serena and Fred are either completen morons who are totally unaware of June's incredibly basic manipulations, or yet again it's Super June to the rescue, her magical powers of persuasion going to work yet again to save the day. 

Yawn.

Also, she stood up to Aunt Lydia and screamed "no!"at her during Janine's beating and...nothing happened? No cattle prod to the ribs? No getting hauled back to the center for more indepth punishment for insolence?

Oh, but of course, this is June we're talking about. She who is the oh so famous repeat offender handmaid, the one who causes the most trouble and conflict and disobedience, but I suppose even Gilead has given up on trying to keep her in line. Clearly she's "a woman on a mission".

Next time she will wrestle a guard or steal a car and everyone around her will be powerless to stop her.

I'm tired.

I didn't hate this one.  There were definitely some interesting ideas at play as to how the individual women are each coping with a system that "honors" them for breeding like livestock but doesn't expect them to have normal human feelings or reactions to the results of that breeding.  I also spent quite a bit of time being just baffled by how despite segregating them from the rest of the party guests nobody seemed to be keeping track of the handmaids at the afterparty from hell and how much freedom of movement June had to flit around as the only spot of red in a sea of teal dresses and black suits with seemingly no one noticing.  It's funny to me that so much of the writing about the show has lamented how much it seems to revel in torture porn or violence against women when it weirdly feels like the show itself has largely backed away from it to the point that as a Vox reviewer remarked, the sense of dread that's previously marked these quieter domestic episodes is almost entirely absent until Lydia snaps and begins wailing on poor Janine.  And even then it mostly fizzles out with a bit of tut-tutting from the onlookers who have gleefully sanctioned such cruelty in the past and seemingly no consequences at all for June putting herself in the middle of it and defying Lydia.  Maybe that's still coming, but given the direction of the show lately, probably not.

I also don't know what the show is going for in having June voiceover that she doesn't hate good old Commander Fred.  Fine, feelings are complicated things and feel what you will.  But leave it unsaid for ambiguity's sake because paired with scenes with where she was clearly probing and trying to position both him and Serena into place where she thought they might be useful to her own ends, it doesn't fit.  Serena is well placed in their society, but June astutely realizes the powerless beaten down version of Serena she's been dealing with these last episodes isn't likely to be any good to her.  June knows her well enough to know that a Serena with a purpose is one who gets shit done. 

In the end, it got her information on where Hannah goes to school, but it was almost immediately followed up with Serena remarking that Janine's outburst is why the segregation of the classes of women exists in the first place, a stark reminder that for as awful as this system is proving for all women up to and including Lydia and Serena, they still buy into it more or less.   Horrifically, there's almost a terrible sense of logic to what Serena's saying as we see here that the blurring of those boundaries to let her see or briefly hold the child she birthed isn't helping Janine at all.  Ofmatthew is worse, revealing that she's had three babies stolen by Gilead as casually as if she's discussing the weather and resolutely clinging to rules of the setup as seemingly to protect herself from feeling anything about it.  

They obviously already knew that Luke was the man on the video, but I really wish June hadn't confirmed it for them.  This now runs the danger of turning into an international kidnapping thing that looks bad for Canada because good old Commander Fred is still Nichole's legal father of record regardless of what everyone thinks they know about Gilead's handmaid setup.  I doubt that occurred to June in her obvious relief to see them okay and together, but I hope Luke has his papers in order and Canada doesn't give any ground.

The Emily scenes were really lovely with all their hesitation and restraint so as not to overwhelm her and I wish we'd gotten more of them.  The scene of such a simple thing of trying to read a book to her son after Gilead had taken that too was exquisite.

Right after the promo there's an "inside the episode." They explain that the "I don't hate him but I don't love him" line was from the book. They say that they don't understand it either but they wanted to put it in, so they did. We're on season three now, way past the end of the book at this point. There's no reason to be putting book material like that in, especially if it does not make sense. The time for this would have been sometime in season one, not after all that stuff in season two.

That may be the single stupidest justification to include a line I've seen and I sat through this last nonsensical season of GOT.  Every line of dialogue should be there for a reason and they should know what that reason is.  Especially as TV Commander Fred and book Commander Fred are not really the same animal after a point.

I was trying to figure out that whole thing too, Luke looked like he was being filmed for family movies while a protest was going on...strange, what was that supposed to accomplish?  It would have been better if Luke had a sign with June's name on it like when the Waterfords were leaving Canada.

June now tells Commanders, Wives and Aunts how and what to do?  She reminded me of a mob consigliere from the Soprano's. I did like Lydia breaking down and suddenly realizing how horrid she is and the situation has become, it could have been a good time for a back story flash back, Lydia seems like she had a complicated life before Gilead. 

As comfortable as June is getting with SJ it could blow up in her face big time, SJ can turn on a dime and might if she can get what she wants and then June is left in the wake to fend for herself.

June continues to insert herself in to situations, like hanging out in the door ways, how is this girl not on the wall or had a hand cut off or an eye plucked out?

"This is awkward."

Yes, seeing the wife who was forced to stay behind in Gilead as a sex slave, who had sex parts removed, and who spent months slowly dying in a toxic wasteland, yet somehow finally managed to miraculously escape after all these years, is awkward.

I get that this was never going to be a super happy reunion situation, but it seems like the wife could at least acknowledge the hell Emily has been though instead of acting as though she was seeing her again for the first time after a bad breakup.

I think it is being handled pretty well, I could not imagine being in Emily's shoes and trying to get used to freedom is one thing but trying to deal with the mental and physical brutality might take a bit of time.  I hope there is some good conversation for them, both actresses are great and they make me forget about the bullshit story June is moving slowly thru.

The scene with Lydia beating up Janine made sense to me. The commanders and wives watched in horror not because they didn't know this crap was going on, but because they want to pretend everything is nice, and everyone plays their part willingly. It's no different than any other fascist who pretends that his vote or his actions don't directly cause harm to someone else. What Lydia realized was that not only was she a shitty human being, but that she sold her soul for people who want them to do their dirty work but still treat her like garbage (not that she deserves better). It's also an aspect of the whole cognitive dissonance going on with this society.

Luke is an idiot. I'm sick of June. I'm sick of this June/Serene friendship, and I'm not here for any of this Fred BS. 

Ann Dowd is brilliant, and so is Alexi Bledel.

The writers just don’t give a shit anymore. 

Luke took the baby to the protest because otherwise the ending couldn’t happen, the end.

There is no other logical reason for him to have been there with the baby, zero. Plot bullshit is all it is, it’s mostly all that’s been happening so far all this season.

Common sense and character development can fuck right off for this bunch, they are going to have Luke act like an imbecile so they can make the story work the way they want to. 

June will get to slink around and play Ms. Marriage Counselor to Serena and Fred, Janine is still hanging around as batshit crazy and unstable as always.

These characters lost their validity ages ago but they cannot be done away with because they’re “mains” and therefore untouchable.

I am ready to borrow Aunt Lydia’s scooter and track down the writers.

Was that line supposed to be their snarky way of putting in “more of the book” like many fans have been asking or wishing for? 

It made literally no sense whatsoever to include that line at this stage, it’s insulting that they would so obviously give no fucks about any of this making sense anymore.

Well...we can assume that she and Nick did the nasty before he got sent off so there is a chance there’s another bun growing in her oven.

The new baby might propel her to super invincible status, she might even learn how to juggle and knit booby traps. 

Honestly at this point if June doesn’t hand deliver every single man, woman, and child currently trapped in Gilead to safety using Aunt Lydia’s scooter and cattle prod I will call shenanigans.

The pithy little one liners June throws out in her narratives make me want to punch her in the face. I am so sick of them.

On a side note, the constant whispering for dramatic effect to set the mood of the show makes me crazy. I have to turn the sound up ridiculously high to just hear 99% of anything anyone says on this show. Something as normal as 'pass the milk, would you?' is said with breathless whispers as though it were a secret tryst they were trying to hide. And they all do it. It is either some new acting posture or the director is making them all do it but I want to strangle them for it.  Talk like a person, dammit.  /end rant

Welp, June's Ye Olde Plote Armour is stronger than ever.  Probably not even going to lose an eye (not that I condone such punishments but it happened to Ofglen 2) and Janine is going to be fast tracked to the wall.  Sigh.  I am expecting no consequences doled out for June, why do the writers think it is a good idea for her to just futz around the whole house and no one cares?  All in the name of defiance?  Can she please just grab Hannah and get the hell out of Gilead so we can focus on a new handmaid?  I want to learn more about OfMatthew the salty, pious one.  Is she a true believer Eden status?  Or is she playing a smarter long game than June?  I'm glad, unlike the other handmaids, that she's not buying June's holier-than-thou attitude.

Aunt Lydia and Janine was just brutal.  When Janine got tons of screentime and a sunny demeanor I knew it wasn't ending well.

For once in her life Naomi Putnam wasn't the coldest person in the room.  She even seemed to kind of like the kid this time.

I am so over Serena and her "make us think she is going to do the right thing until she doesn't" routine.   Cancel the Waterfords, back to the Lawrences please.

For all the ways June pisses me off I didn't blame her for correctly identifying Luke.  She knows too well that when Eyes/Angels come around that they already know their answer and are testing their subject to see if they lie.  But there seems to be this formula with each episode this season that June gets herself in trouble, almost learns lesson, gets final scene confirmation that her stinky attitude is worth it, lather rinse repeat.  This is getting old!

That being said, Emily's bittersweet scenes saved the episode from being a total clunker.

I felt that the wife was following a script that she'd been given, probably by one of the groups who help the former handmaids reintegrate back into normal society. 

She seemed like she was trying to get everything right. Not pressing Emily's interactions with her or their son, giving her space and privacy, being overly cautious and overthinking everything. 

I think that her uncertainty and fear adds to the heartbreak factor in their scenes, because it really hits you just how much has been stolen and taken away from them.

In a way Gilead has made them strangers, they have to get to know each other again. They have to rebuild trust and openness, they have to start over again and regain their former intimacy.

That’s what I gathered from it too. I didn’t think the wife was cold. I think it was superbly played. Not overly dramatic Hollywood-style. In that sense it was even more emotional.

This show has jumped the shark. While the other handmaids are forced to follow the strict rules of Gilead, June gets to act like she runs the show. She gets to have private conversations with Wives and Commanders (she even gets to have a cig break with one), she can order an Aunt to stop the brutality, she can hang back and eavesdrop on Commander conversations, and now her husband has been found with her baby, and its all okie-dokie. But other Handmaids have died just for looking at an Aunt the wrong way.

I am so over this shit. I'll be watching for Emily, but I've really had enough of June, the most specialist snowflake of all of Gilead.

As for Luke, I forgot to say it in my other post, but IT IS DUMB in a general sense to be taking a baby to a rally, or any crowded public place in this world. With the birth rate being what it is, there's a high motivation for someone to kidnap your child. But on the bell curve of intelligence, Luke is walking in the valley of the damned. He even had someone try to kidnap a child of his own once before. On top of that, he knows the "lawful" parents in Gilead are important political figures who know where he lives.  So he's out there flaunting the little MacGuffin in the streets and waving at the cameras so that everyone can see them. This man has a serious brain deficit. 

Of all the material to use as a tribute to Margaret Atwood, that is the line they choose?? One they can’t decipher to boot! Lord give me strength.

Someone remind me, did we see a flashback to Aunt Lydia's life pre-Gilead in a previous season? I seem to remember  her in regular street clothes, but I might be mixing it up with Ann Dowd in The Leftovers.

No. We have had pre Gilead flashback episodes with June, Luke, Moira, Emily, Nick and the Waterfords but not Aunt Lydia.  I really want that backstory.

So I know the answer to this question is "no, never," and for all of the obvious reasons, but can we please get one happy reunion? Just one?

If I can suspend common sense and accept that June is still alive, I can also suspend common sense and accept a happy reunion.  Really, I'm okay with it, just for an episode or 2.
