[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The wedding was disappointing. Who was the commander at the end of the episode? Will Aunt Lydia be on the wall? Can the sedative in the cake hurt Roses baby? [/quote]The Commander June killed? That was the one who has been terrorizing Janine at Jezebel’s this season and plotting to kill Commander Lawrence. Nick and Rose don’t have a handmaid, so I assume he survived. Not sure about Rose’s baby. I hadn’t thought about that possibility.

I was expecting explosives this episode. Shanking Commanders in their sleep is so much more personal and violent. I approve. More deaths in these last two episodes, please. I’m rooting for Nick’s death. And you know what…Lawrence, too. Throw all the bastards in there. Let’s go scorched Earth, June.[/quote]

No, I was asking about the commander. In the very last scene there was a plus-sized handmaid behind him. I don't remember seeing him before. [/quote]

Was it Serena’s new husband?  Or where is commander bell senior?  Aren’t there some commanders in DC who didn’t come to the wedding?  I’m just confused how Boston is the focus but it seems like DC is still the capital.  
One thing that bothered me about the series is all the recent pop culture references.  I get that it’s supposed to make us feel like this could happen tomorrow but it just doesn’t make sense.  How do you go immediately from a  world where Rihanna is still a big cultural touchstone to one where the econopelle only have grey clothing ?  It doesn’t make sense unless there is at least a generation or two gap for things to fall apart.  [/quote]

It was just some commander. It's not that deep - it was to make a point that the posted Handmaids were all killing their commanders because this is the start of a revolution.

As to the rest of your post I really don't know what to say. Are you sure you've watched the show?[/quote]
