What happened in The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 3?
The preceding events leading to The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 4 were nothing short of dramatic. Episode 3 saw Nick go to great lengths to save June, Luke, and Moira from the vigilance of Gilead. Having killed two Guardians to avert the secrecy of their operation, Nick moved one step closer to full-fledged rebellion by doing something perilous.
Though he did not bid adieu to June in their poignant encounter, their relationship was evident, and the repercussions of his actions are likely to come into perspective now.
Meanwhile, Serena Joy struggles with where she fits into New Bethlehem, the Commander Lawrence-led experimental Gilead initiative. With political pressures building and her maternal impulses fighting against Gilead's control, Serena Joy's arc continues to grow. June's daughter, Hannah, is still in Gilead, and her efforts to save her only continue to intensify as threats grow larger.
What to expect in The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 4?
The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 4 will have much to do with Nick's brutal choice having consequences. With the Guardians' deaths guaranteed to bring attention, Nick will likely have severe penalties handed down to him or may be pushed toward taking more drastic measures to maintain his double life as a Commander and an informant. Will his loyalty ever switch entirely to the resistance?
Episode 4 could also draw Serena and June's trajectories together again. Episode 3 concluded with them both on a train to Vancouver, which could culminate in yet another charged encounter.
With Serena still clinging to her ideals and motherhood, and June resolute to upend Gilead's hold on her family, their head-on collision could set the mid-season tone.
Expect more from Commander Lawrence, too. His New Bethlehem initiative already faces internal doubt, and his deal with Serena might be a visionary gambit or a suicide move.
As the series sets up for its ultimate showdown between Gilead and the resistance, episode 4 will be crucial to seeing which players make it through the coming political upheaval.
Interested viewers can watch The Handmaid's Tale season 6 episode 4 on Hulu.
