Season Four Episode Ten
For June to stay calm is not an easy thing. Just think. June has been on level ten for seven years! June has never slowed down. June is not use to the day to day normal life anymore. I’m not sure June will ever be able to live a normal life again. June does confess to Emily that she wants to try to forget Fred and focus on her family. Of course we see in this episode that she can not let Fred go.
June is given a chance to testify before the court rules in Fred’s favor. June runs into Mark and not very happy to see him, which is for a good reason. Mark is letting Fred go free. June did not end up in jail like I thought after she threatens Mark. All Mark is concerned about is getting the person that will help him the most and that is Fred. Mark wants to get inside of Gilead no matter what it takes.
Luke wants to get everything back to normal now that June is home and has testified for the last time. Luke trying to make June normal will not happen; and he needs to realize that. Again, Luke will never ever understand what June went through in Gilead. Luke will just need to move aside and let June be free in her own way; and he really does not have a choice. Moira is trying to be supportive, and wants June to go to Geneva to testify against Fred to keep him in jail; but June will not go. Moira and Rita are just ready for Fred to be gone; they just want to forget about him.
Mark is not happy with June when she shows up outside his home to talk to him. Mark tells June it is not appropriate but she talks him into helping her with Fred. Mark goes with June to meet Commander Lawrence in an abandoned restaurant in Canada. There sure are a lot of abandoned buildings in Canada. And how is it so easy to Nick and now Commander Lawrence to get in and out of Canada? Just a thought. Mark, Commander Lawrence and June all meet in this scary looking restaurant. June tries to make a deal with Commander Lawrence who will take Fred back for the exchange of 22 women. Mark gets files from Commander Lawrence of women that were in the resistance before they were caught and sent to Gilead. Mark will take the files back to his boss to then decide if the exchange will happen. 22 women out of Gilead. For no good Fred. Now that’s a trade.
Fred is getting ready for his trip to Geneva and excited about returning to Canada a free man. He goes to say goodbye to Serena and they agree to Zoom later once Fred is settled in. Fred takes his luggage out to the car but finds Mark waiting to take him into custody. Fred is shocked when he is put into a waiting van. Fred is then taken to the border between the USA/Canada. There waiting for him is Commander Lawrence. Fred is then exchanged for the 22 women. Fred is then put into another van and handcuffed. Nick is waiting for him and put into another van where he is taken to the woods. And waiting for him in the woods is June. Does Fred really regret what he has done in Gilead or is he just that arrogant. Poor Fred. No poor Serena. What is going to happen to her now?
June gets her revenge but what about all the women and children still in Gilead? The next morning, June goes home and is covered in blood. Luke finds her in the room with Nichole and can’t believe June was once his innocent wife. June tells Luke she is leaving. Where is she going? What are her plans? Will she be taking Emily with her? Will she be starting a resistant group? Is she just walking away from everyone that loves her? Does June know she and Luke are done? Does she even want a life with Luke? This episode leaves so many unanswered questions. Can’t wait for Season Five!
