[quote=Anonymous][quote]Also, who impregnated Serena?

Didn’t she have sex with Fred the night before she tricked him into crossing the border? They were staying with that family in the country and she invited him into her bed. He must not be sterile after all.

Hopefully it wasn’t him- pretty magical plot twist fertility timing if it was.

Yeah not a fan of this storyline. Wouldn't it also put baby Nichole's paternity in question? [/quote]

I am a huge fan of this storyline as long as they make it satisfying. There are so many places to go with it.

I'm not really upset if Fred is the father. It was assumed he was sterile b/c Serena never got pregnant and June didn't until she had sex with Nick. Correlation doesn't equal causation as they say. In both the book and the show it's emphasized that Gilead doesn't test the men.

I think it's also possible (but unlikely) that Agent Handsome from America is the father, which throws a whole new wrench into the works. I kind of hope he's not because we're veering into soap opera territory, but possible.

The most boring thing they could do with the pregnancy storyline is Serena is convicted of whatever, imprisoned, and the baby cruelly taken from her just as if she were a handmaid. But what I'd REALLY like to see is Serena making a deal to testify against Fred, etc. and walking free. But Canada won't accept her as an asylum seeker and deports her and the baby to Gilead. And she has to make her way in a society she helped to create, but as an average person, and not the wife of a founding commander. I think that would be fascinating.

I hope they don't exclusively focus on the June storyline with the resistance. The first three episodes signal to me that the focus will be Canada, the past, and the present with the resistance. I hope it's in that order.[/quote]
