[quote=Anonymous][quote]At least a few days. That’s long enough. These aren’t traumatized girls any more. They’ve been through some stuff. And they’re aided by a network that includes military-type people and Marthas with half a brain.
There was so much more they could have interrogated her about. Like, how Nick hid her pregnant self for weeks (months? I can’t remember). Like who else helped her with the kids.
It felt like the whole thing was just to get in torture porn they didn’t get in in the previous seasons I guess. It doesn’t make sense that if June were captured she would have a chance in hell of escaping again. The fact that they weren’t chained the van, even? Wtf?
It’s a great show but the writing on these episodes was disappointing just because these distracting things didn’t have to be there. Even the escape, there are so many more realistic scenarios than “the one guard went to pee.” A guard could turn and kill the others to free her, whatever.[/quote]

All of this. Still love the show, but the recapture of the Handmaids was a real WTF moment. Alma has always been the most informed and in Boston was much more plugged into Mayday and definitely understands how things work. She should have and would have been the person talking to the Mayday contact at the second farmhouse and getting the next location. It would have been much more realistic to spend one or two minutes on a scene where Alma and Jeanine had a discussion about "where's June?", assuming she was captured and then lamenting that Mayday was unable to find them an onward location.
