Season Four Episode Four
June and Janine are on a mission to escape Gilead and they board a train tanker filled with milk. Yes milk. They had no idea what was in the tanker when they jumped in. Now why would a train have a tanker full of milk, I have not idea. Does June really know the train is headed to Chicago?
After jumping into the milk, June tries to find a drain to let the milk out. Does the tanker have a drain hole? Well she finds one and all the milk spills out. Janine has a meltdown about the entire destination into a war zone, but June tries to calm her down. Janine further gets mad and wants June to stop treating her like a child and be truthful with her. June finally tells her that she did turn them in to Gilead Commander to save her daughter. Janine blames June for the death of Alma and Brianna. June tells Janine that she should have left her a long time ago. After a few more words, they are both quiet during the ride both unsure what to say.
Rita goes to see Serena who request to see her. Rita founds out that Serena is pregnant and is happy for her. Rita is a good person, because after all Serena has put her through, she was still kind and nice to her. Not sure if I would have done the same. Serena is talking on and on about how lucky and happy she is; and assumes that Rita is a friend who will help her raise the baby. Well, Rita has other plans. She visits Fred and gives him the picture of the sonogram, and tells him that it is no longer her job. Go Rita!
The train gets attacked and it crashes. June hears all the guns and looks out of the tanker to see a group gathering up supplies as the guardian lay dead. June attempts to talk to one of the group members by asking if they could join them. After some convincing, the group leader allows June and Janine to join them. Of course, it comes with a cost as the leader of the group wants more from the handmaids. Well June can’t do it. She tells Janine who later goes through with it. Now they stay with the group. I’m getting a bad feeling about this group.
This episode concentrates on June and Janine getting further away from Boston. Gilead is still trying to take over Chicago with resistance from the people there. I have so many questions. Will June get out of Gilead? Will June get caught again? Will June look for Mayday?
