Next episode should be good. The season needs to show more action!

Season One Episode One

This is the number one TV show on Netflix right now. Based on a true story this couple, Dean and Nora, and their two children, Elle and Carter, go look at a house in the suburbs. They fall in love with the house. Dean wants to buy this house so bad, that he uses all their finances to purchase the home.

The first episode shows the family getting settled in the house. Elle starts to hear sounds coming from the basement but no one believes her. Then the Brannocks get a letter. The letter is very creepy and very descriptive. Dean and Nora go to the police station to complain that someone is watching the house. The police chief plays if off and does not take it seriously.

Dean later has a run in with their next door neighbor, Mo who is in his yard cutting flowers. Then the other neighbor, Jasper, is found in the house. Weird things start to happen and the Brannocks decide to get an alarm system.

What is wrong with that house? And why didn’t they sage the house before moving in? Very creepy first episode.

Season Five – Fairytale

This episode has some action in it and you know see where the show is going.

June, Luke and Moira meet up with Lily because she can help them get information on Hannah. They have to go meet someone at the border of Gilead but at first are reluctant to go. Luke speaks up and says he will go in so June agrees to go with him. Look at Luke stepping up. You know he is scared!!

June and Luke end up at a bowling alley in Gilead with Jaden, who is part of the resistance. Jaden gives June and Luke information about where Hannah is living. June and Nick look concerned; and Jaden states that Hannah is in training to be a wife and is treated like a princess. Jaden hands them a flash drive that has all the information June and Luke need to found Hannah.

June and Luke are ready to leave now that they have the information they came for. Jaden tells them it would be hard to get them out and they should wait until daybreak. June and Nick again look concerned but convinces each other they will wait. People!! Always follow your instincts!!

At daybreak, Jaden takes them back taking a “short cut.” Really?? They get almost to the NoMansLand border and Jaden steps on a minefield and it explodes. The explosion attracts attention and a group of armed men come and take June and Luke away. Now this could have all been avoided if they insisted on Jaden taking them back right away.

Serena is a hot mess. She starts to feel trapped at the Wheeler house. Now is experiencing how the Handmaids felt trapped in Gilead. Don’t feel sorry for her; she deserves every second of every day. Serena is reminded of the limitations she has being a women. She wants to make the center a infertility clinic, and Commander Putman tells her he will think about it. They show flashbacks of how Gilead started with Serena and Mrs. Putnam walking through a center where the kidnapped children are kept. Apparently the wives will get to choose which of the children they want to raise. Just think now. Serena has no husband and pregnant. Talk about karma.

This episode was good over all. It will also reveal some key points for the upcoming episodes. It goes into how things started; how things could have been; and what will happen next. Enjoy!!

Season Five – Dear Offred

Like I said before; we all know June is going to make Serena pay for what she has done. I’m not sure how or when June will get it done. June is so beyond saving and poor Luke does not know what to do. And Moira, I think she is just wiping her hands clean and staying clear of June.

Serena has moved into a community center owned by Gilead. Serena thinks she has it made until she sees June staring at her from outside the window. If only June could reach out and touch her; and Serena’s face shows how scared she is.

June gets an invitation from Serena addressed, Dear Offred, announcing the opening of the Republic of Gilead in Canada. And why did Serena do that? Serena is really digging her own grave.

June and Serena later have a face off and boy was I just a little nervous for Serena. Serena has to flee her new home at the community center and is taken to a secluded house for safety. A lady of the house, Mrs. Ryan Wheeler greets Serena. Boy does this Mrs. Ryan Wheeler seem a little creepy. Serena, I bet you are thinking you had the choice to stay in Gilead.

Moving into the Janine and Aunt Lydia part of the episode. Janine is getting frustrated with Aunt Lydia after she made comments about Ester not waking up. Janine has become very bold after waking up from her near death experience. Janine is even yelling at Aunt Lydia about all the bad things she has done to the handmaids. Janine even made the comment about Aunt Lydia plucking out her other eye. Janine is done and does not care anymore what will happen to her. What will Aunt Lydia do now; will she really make life better for the handmaids? We will see.

Hope you enjoy this episode. A little bit of actions but not as much I hoped.
