Spoilers ahead for season five ofThe Handmaids Tale, including the finale episode, Safe.
In the final minutes ofthe season-five finaleofThe Handmaids Tale, June Osborne comes face-to-face with Serena Waterford.
At this moment, they kind of are.
June and Serena: both mothers, each with a child in her arms.
By the end of the season, we still dont know the answer to that.
All that has to change is her circumstances.
Serenas circumstances certainly changed.
Instead, he looks at her, stunned.
Do you have an irony deficiency?
(A barn is … kind of like a manger?)
I turned the other cheek, June explains after noting she has not forgiven Serena at all.
Turns out after all this, I guess Im a better Christian than you.
Honestly, its to the credit ofThe Handmaids Talewriters that she doesnt get that at this stage.
She may never develop it.
Its been powerful to watch June, Janine, and others push back against their oppressors.
