Handmaid’s Tale season 4

It was a prisoner exchange. I don't think trying to get Hannah would be an option. Aside from that, no way would leadership in Gilead do anything to reward or please June. She gave them a big, public black eye by getting all those kids out.

Reading all these comments I thought I was the only one who thought this ending was horrific.

The lesson I took from this is if someone oppresses you then you have every right to murder. Have we really gotten to this point in our society? June's actions should not be celebrated. I don't think it is far-fetched for her character to do this based on the path we have seen this season, but her actions shouldn't be lumped into a "girl-power-isn't-this-awesome" kind of thing that is being spelled out in all the reviews/interviews.

In all honestly, it would have felt more poetic for the women to not kill him...yet still send the finger to Serena...and let Fred go back to Gilead. He was not going to have a great reunion and likely would have ended up the wall as his fellow commanders no longer welcomed him. Why not let him see his whole life spiral out of control first.

Yes, I would definitely have preferred this as well.

I celebrated and I’m not sorry.

I didn't get that either. This season is slow and dry.

It was a really bad episode.

Returning a finger to Serena was perfect

I'm team Luke, but I was at least entertained. After such a slow season, that's something.

I don't really believe any of it any more so I'm not as horrified as I maybe otherwise would be. I'm happy for a twist.

They should end the series there.

Did you not watch the last scene? That’s the point. She decided to be a murderer but now…she’s a murderer. And you can argue that there’s a place for that in war and revolution but by doing so, she has forfeited her chance to live as a refugee in her reconstructed family. She knows, Luke knows, that’s the point of the last scene.

That was so satisfying.

I agree the season otherwise felt so slow, but I enjoyed this last episode.

May fingerdrop be the new micdrop.
