The season finale for this show was the best I have seen in a very long time. June did it. She got over 52 kids out of Gilead. She really did it.
I was on the edge of my seat during the preparation and getting the children through the woods. They ran into a snag, but June sacrificed staying behind as a distraction so that the kids could make it to the plane.
And one of the best parts was when Handmaids and Marthas stayed behind to help June distract the Guardian. A few of them were shot but they kept throwing the rocks at the Guardian.
June again sacrificed her safety to get the Guardian in the woods so she can shoot him; and to make him call to say his call to the others was a false alarm. She gets shot in the process of running away. After he calls the others, she shoots him again but in the face.
The kids made it out and are now in Canada. One of the kids reunited with her father; who was a volunteer with the relief team. Luke was hoping for Hannah and June to get off the plane but it didn’t happen. Rita hugged Luke and said the June made the escape happen for the kids. It was happy moment.
At the end, June can’t get up from the ground after being shot, but again Handmaids come to her aid; pick her up and take her out of the woods. Season 4 will take over from there. What is going to happen to the Handmaids now? Who are they going to blame for getting all the kids out? What will happen to June and Hannah? What will happen to Commander Lawrence? So many unanswered questions.
