Season Four Episode One

The first episode back did not disappoint me. June is as brave as she always have been. That’s what trying to get your child back that was taken from you look like. She is going through some changes to get there, but hopefully she will find Hanna.

June and her friends make it to a farm outside of Boston and are staying with a Commander and his young wife, Mrs. Keys. Mrs. Keys looks to be 14 years or younger and it’s sad since she was forced to marry this man. Mrs. Keys is a little scary at first, but June will get her in line.

June is still healing from her gunshot wound and is in constant pain. But that does not stop her from making plans to keep moving. The farm seems safe for now, but Gilead is still looking for her. She and her friends will not be safe until they reach Canada.

Commander Joseph is put in prison for helping June. Aunt Lydia is beat up by the Guardians. Rita is trying to adjust to her new life in Canada. Fred and Serena are told the June got 86 children out of Gilead. And to make it more interesting, Serena finds out she is pregnant. Now, what is that all about? Thought she could not get pregnant. So much is going on!

Way to start a season!!!

Season Five

Teresa Mendoza is back. She is still in New Orleans; and I’m surprised after all the drama she went through with the judge. Also, Tony was killed last season. James is back and Pote does not trust him. I think Teresa will give him a chance.

Teresa in the first two episodes she sets out to get more business and goes to New York City. She is not trusting the Russian group right now, and looking for someone else to move her product. She arranges to meet with the Dominicans; and it doesn’t go so well. Her Russian friends are feeling left out after they learn of her new business partners.

Teresa is as tough as ever and I’m looking forward to see what she will do this season. She wants to build a legitimate business; and she needs clean money to do it. Let’s see where the road takes her. I’m thinking James will be a big help for her. She will always have Pote watching her back. Life of a Queen Pin.

Season 5, Episode 13 Brotherly Love

This is the episode I have been waiting for. Randall and Kevin come together to talk about issues. I can see Kevin’s view both ways of seeing and ignoring the problems that Randall had growing up. Not being in Randall’s shoes, his family had no idea what he was going through. Granted his father did his best. Even with trying to make Randall feel special, it wasn’t the same.

Not just brothers coming together, but brothers of different races coming together. What a powerful episode. I was kind of nervous at first and didn’t think the two would come together. They did and it was needed, especially for Randall. I was impressed that Kevin admits to not doing anything to help Randall.

Watch the episode and enjoy it just as much as I did. It will have you a little teary eyed but worth it. More families and friends need to be having these conversations now.
