Season Finale. June is shown getting a package from her porch. She opens it and it’s a bulletproof vest. The events that happened at the memorial has spooked her. Even Luke is happy she has the vest now.

Mark stop by to give June and Luke news that the gunman from the memorial serves has been arrested . The question is, is he tied to Gilead? Then June walks Mark outside to walk him to his car. On her way back from Mark’s car, June notices a truck following her. She looks back and starts to walk faster. Out of nowhere this truck comes by and hits June. She can’t get up and the truck rolls past her on the ground. The person in the truck proceeds to run over June’s arm. Who is in this truck? Luke goes out and stops the truck, pulls the driver out of the truck and starts beating him.

June is rushed to the hospital and has to remain overnight. Guess who comes to visit her? Nick. Mark called Nick to let him know about June. Mark has made a deal with Nick; not sure what that is yet. June is asleep but Nick stays for a few minutes and looks over her.

Nick gets back to Gilead and confronts Lawrence with a punch in the face. Nick is then taken into custody. What has he done? Rose goes to visit him and tells him it’s over. Okay, bold girl. She does realize she is in Gilead and can not exist without Nick as her husband?

After June gets out of the hospital, they plan on their departure from Canada. They are due to fly out that night. Luke is confronted by Mark letting him know he is a wanted man for the death of the driver of the car. The airport would not be safe; but there was a train leaving for Hawaii and that would be saver. June, Luke and Nicole get to the train station and it is crowded with refugees fleeing Canada. They make it to the train entrance and Luke tells June to go ahead of him. June does but then realizes the Luke is not getting on the train. At first June hesitates but Luke convinces her to go ahead. As June boards the train, Luke is taken into custody by the police.

June is now on the train and looking for a seat. The train is crowded and she cannot found a seat in the front, so she goes to the back. June hears a baby crying and looks ahead and it’s Serena. June gives Serena a look as she goes towards her. Serena smiles and ask her for a diaper. You have to be joking!! Who told her about the train? Had to be Mark, of course.

The season is over. What will happen to June and Serena? Will they make it to Hawaii? What will happen to Moira and Rita who are left behind in Canada? What will happen to Luke since he has been arrested. And most of all, what will happen to Hannah now? We have to wait now for the sixth and final season. They have so much to uncover and so many unanswered questions.
