s01e08 — Broken

I really hope that the dentist will be severely punished, but the fact that the aunts arrange this behind the scenes, instead of publicly shaming and making it clear that he is the one who is wrong, and you can't do that, and not the victim's girls is absolute cowardice.

The girls did well, they plucked up the courage and told me. They did everything right and everything they could.… It's the system that's letting them down once again... they can't even comfort each other about it because they're being portrayed as aggressors instead of victims.
At least Hannah also told Daisy, who understands all this, and she knows that this is 100% not Hannah's fault.

Daisy, who started her period in such a place... and in theory, she could be sent not only to get married, but also to the red center, becoming a maid. The pearls probably have even fewer rights than the girls from the "families".
It was nice to see how Daisy's friendship with Shunammit was developing, and that Hannah had secretly given her the pads.
And Shu's refusal to believe in how children are actually made was both funny and very sad.

I am so glad that these girls have Daisy, who helps them understand that their experiences are meaningful and real, and shows them that Gilead's beliefs are completely wrong. And how it warms the soul that even Gilead cannot destroy the sanctity of friendship.

It feels like Garth is very green for Mae Day, but we have what we have, at least it sounded like it: I want to destroy Gilead. Let's watch…

I really feel sorry for Gulda, and what a disgusting dentist, fuu, how he looked at the girls disgustedly and talked about the next meeting. 🤢

Poor Agnes, how hard it is for her to get over Becky and Garth's engagement, and now she wonders what Daisy will do.

A lesson in sexual education from Aunt Vidala - your husband will instruct, and you will obey!
Well, yes, well, you don't need to know anything else...🤦

honestly, it's rotten and hopeless
, and because you see that little girls have to get married and give birth, and because they can't (in most cases) choose a mate, and because of the dentist, and because it's classic, the victims blame themselves
disgustingly Waiting for the most severe punishment for the dentist

It was unexpected that Garth's father was a commander, and his son loved him, but did not share his position
. It
was a rare mix of feelings, and admiring his father, but literally going against what he was doing.
I would like to see some flashbacks about Garth and his family
, as far as I understand, his father was respected, but why do they live in a small house, and the sons of commanders don't automatically become commanders too, hmm..
What motivated Garth to join the opposition in the first place? A lot of questions

I understand why Becca chose him, but at the same time, the gap between her and Agnes will only grow
. If I wrote under the previous episode that I would like to see them collaborate, then everything turned out strangely. It turns
out that she, in love with Agnes, knowing that Agnes loves Garth, chooses Garth
. they may have some personal conversation ahead of them as husbands (herself), but so far it seems that Daisy will take (or even took) the place of Agnes' best friend (it is not yet clear what they have added to the fact that you cannot trust pearl virgins, as if their thoughts often do not find any development later anyway in the plot, but maybe Daisy will finally decide to stay in Gilead and do something)
and in general, for the sake of this union, I started watching the series, but somehow I imagined Becky's moaning
in a different way, someone even wrote about suicide, and here everything is so calm.

seeing Daisy say real things about sex, but Shu doesn't believe her, was the only bit funny in the series
, but in the end, she's glad that Shu took her side (maybe for her own sake, so as not to be alone, but still), and now she has a sponsor for pads hd

It turns out that it was Brother Shu who June took out, if I understood correctly?

For some reason, I also hoped for Agnes' father, who seemed more sympathetic, but yes, the same as everyone else.
'I'm sorry for you, but we have to accept that you're so young, considering how difficult it is to have children.' Thank you, Dad
, he didn't seem to speak much about Agnes' candidacy for her husband, but then we don't care, we're dancing

this future husband is still very good at playing the fact that Agnes has a choice (flowers, cake), but it seems that this is the only thing she will really choose, and then nothing good, given the background of the commander, will not wait for her.

and in general, I caught myself thinking (in close-ups at the end of ahaha) how I missed June
, they mentioned her a little in conversation, but I want them to show at least a little
bit what they are doing there in opposition, what they are cooking.

It's so beautiful. Such a delight to the eyes.

it seems that all the resistance will come down to defeating the dentist and that's where the season will end (

I hope Daisy doesn't get emotional and create some kind of game and she won't be sent to the red center..
I really want Agnes to be told who her mother is and what she did in Gilead, so that she remembers at least something about her and that her side wakes up in her (I don't know if there is such a thing in the book)
I felt sorry for Hulda and Agnes too, but Hulda is just a baby. (I hope for a public castration of the dentist or something like that)
in general, I really like it, the tension remains for me) the only annoying thing is that the series is released in one episode.

It's kind of suspicious that this Penny looks so bad and that it's not just about losing a child. So far, there are two candidates for the role of Commander bluebeard. It seems that Commander Judd is suitable, and the one who is Agnes' future husband, given his past with domestic violence in the dossier. Both, by the way, create a very pleasant impression in public, playing the roles of well-mannered, respectable husbands.

rod of flesh? swim up?

Father Agens seemed adequate to Olya for a second, but then he started talking about the need for early childbearing and the need to rely on science when he himself creates a world in which everyone lives according to God's laws and believes that pregnancy will come only to those girls who follow His laws...
It's all an abomination.

But the moment when Agnes became emboldened and gave, albeit a trifling rebuff to the "mother" with these flowers is fire)) Although I do not approve of all that action, but Agnes is marrying one of the most influential commanders and Paul Mackenzie should behave more modestly 😂😂😂

As I understand it, Daisy will soon do something that Agnes won't like very much. 😁

These are the evil creators, the narrative barely stretches, but it's still so beautifully and extensively shot that you'll watch many seasons, even at this pace.

Daisy reports in a panic that she has started her period, Garth: a second's silence, "may the fetus be blessed" 😂😂😂

Schumanitik's reaction to sexual enlightenment from Daisy made this series))

Are they infiltrating? A stick of flesh? Do you think I'm stupid?😅😅😅
Oh, dear, there are many discoveries waiting for you.

All these cute little cream victims of the dentist, I hope the aunts will come up with something 🤨🤔

The whole episode was heart-wrenching from total hopelessness. I really like the way it was shot and the way the script is written.
Special thanks for the narration behind the scenes from Hannah. And it feels like the truth is Hannah, the daughter of June, not the daughter of Gilead!

Is Daisy going to publicly disclose the arrival of her period in order to get to the dentist in this way... x____X

If this ever happens in the world, shoot me first.

It seems to me that Garth's paralyzed father did not just break a glass when he saw Agnes, if he was injured fighting the resistance and he may know that she is June's daughter and thus expressed his slight displeasure (although it may be a coincidence that Garth and Daisy talked)

What a pity for Hulda. I haven't gotten married yet, but I've already been through this shit.

At least in terms of choosing colors, Agnes opposed her mother, otherwise it was impossible at all. She chose a man for her, a cake, and here she doesn't even let the bride choose flowers.
I'm just in a fucking situation with the dentist.
Perhaps the aunts believed Hulda, but without proof they would not have done anything and would have framed themselves. It's a disgusting situation.
