[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On Hannah remembering her name, I can see that…[b].if when she was taken she was determined not to forget [/b]and did something like say her name to herself every day so she wouldn’t forget it, practice writing it with her finger in dirt, etc.  I can totally see a kid hanging onto that one thing as a way to maintain sanity.  I think there is some precedent for that in traumatized kids—focusing on remembering one thing from their old lives sort of like keeping a key even when you’ve forgotten what it opens. 
Also, she’s June’s daughter, so if anyone is going to have a quiet core of steel running through her, it’s going to be Hannah. [/quote]

Idk last time June saw her she seemed so brainwashed and afraid of her own mother--[b]I thought this seemed to come out of left field.[/b][/quote]

I feel like a lot of things in the show are playing out that way. Flashback to Serena and June sharing a smile during the cringy part of the birth. What? Angry Canadians who suddenly hate well educated and capable American refugees feeling from a violent and oppressive neighbor. What? Joseph is suddenly all powerful and coming up with a new little island where people who don't want to actually follow the rules of Gilead and chill with other people from Gilead. Ok. Not to mention the ridiculousness of the rescue operation.

Just bad writing all around.[/quote]
