Season Six Episode Seven Shattered
The episodes get keep getting better and better. In this one, June is all in her feelings and she should be.
June and Nick are still in the closet. She can’t even look at him. He is so disappointed he got caught. That’s what you get, Nick.
They show Jezebels when the guardians come in and push the girls into the bathroom showers. Janine gets in the way. and tries to stop the guardians. They grab her out of the way and start shooting the girls. Janine looks on screaming.
Finally, Commander Wharton leaves. June and Nick come out of the closet. Nick knows he can’t make it right, so he acts like he didn’t know, but states that the girls at Jezebels would be slaughtered. June ask Nick to take her back. Halfway there, June ask him to stop the car. June gets out and starts walking. Nick yells for her to stop; and then says some harsh words to her. Really Nick. You expect her to be that forgiving.
Aunt Lydia goes to visit Jezebels and sees where the girls were slaughtered. She is so emotional. She finds the picture that Angela drew for Janine and starts to cry. Why are you crying? You are to blame for this too.
June gets back to the command center. Luck sees her and lets her know about what happened at Jezebels. June then tells Luke that Nick knows. Luke ask her how; and she says she told him. She thought she could trust him. Luke goes off on her. June takes in all in. No one will trust her now.
Rita goes to ask Nick if June made it back okay. Nick is in a foul mood and states he will never see her again. and that June thinks he is a monster. Rita tries to convince him he will see June again. She also mentions that they were friends way before June, and he will be fine. Nick goes on to say, they were never friends. Nick states that Rita is only being nice to him so he can help her get her family out of Gilead. Really Nick, you had to go there. Rita states she was counting on him. Nick is such a jerk.
Serena Joy has a bridal shower in Gilead with the wives. The wives are talking down about New Bethlehem. Serena Joy ensures them that New Bethlehem is a safe place. She is also irritated with them. Serena Joy lets them know there will be no handmaids in New Bethlehem and they seem applauded. Not a good bridal shower at all. Commander Wharton comes to see Serena Joy and sees how upset she is. After she tells him what happened, Commander Wharton states they will treat her with respect. Serena Joy then proceeds to ask if she can have a proper wedding. Commander Wharton tells her that it would have to be in Gilead with everyone in attendance, including the handmaids. She didn’t seem to happy about that, but that’s not going to stop her from having the perfect wedding. Serena Joy selling her soul. She just wants the wives to be jeaslous of her.
Aunt Lydia gets back to the Red Center and is told that Janine had been spared. Aunt Phoebe tells her Janine is now a handmaid for Commander Bell; and has requested a new cloak for her. Aunt Lydia is overjoyed.
June is now the outcast at the command center. Everyone is giving her looks, and whispering to each other. Moira comes to see her. June tells Moira that she thought she could trust Nick. Moira gives June some encouraging words. June goes outside and tries to talk to Ellen, but she refuses to even look at her. June sees Luke and tries to give him an out but he doesn’t want out of the marriage.
Aunt Lydia goes to deliver the cloak for Janine. Commander Bell answers the door, and refuses to let her in. Aunt Lydia ask if she could see Janine; and Commander Bells states she’s not available at the moment. Aunt Lydia says she will see her at the wedding. Commander Bell then states Janine will not be there. Aunt Lydia ask him why, and he states she will not be ready for public viewing. Then he practically slams the door in her face. As Aunt Lydia is walking away, she sees Janine in a window upstairs. Janine is bruised from beatings she is getting. Aunt Lydia is very upset from what she sees.
June is packing her clothes and crying when she sees a car pull up. It’s Commander Lawrence. He is with Mark. Commander Lawrence sees June in the window and goes to see her. He is there to help he states. Commander Lawrence talks about trusting Nick. He then convinces June to get rid of the commanders. He also mentions that Serena Joy will be broadcasting her wedding live. Commander Lawrence then goes to tell June that Janine is not dead but is a handmaid for Commander Bell. June then convinces everyone that she has a new plan. and it is sure to work.
Commander Lawrence goes to see Aunt Lydia. He wants her to get out of Gilead during the wedding. Lets face it, Aunt Lydia is very noisy and will mess everything up. Aunt Lydia is only convince because Commander Lawerence is making her the ambassador for the new wellness clinic in New Bethlehem. New ally, Aunt Phoebe gets June and Moira out of the trunk of Commander Lawrence’s car; and takes them to the basement of the Red Center. June and Moira are very nervous as they should be. June says a prayer and they are hoping for the best.
I’m curious to see if new plan will work. The resistance has some good people helping them this time. Gilead has always won the battles. Keep your fingers crossed.
