I review, breakdown and explain The Handmaid’s Tale Episode 4 ‘Dear Offred’. I discuss the story of June going to the Gilead Embassy and meeting Serena, Luke changing sides as he wants to seek out Hannah, Janine waking up, and Aunt Lydia wanting to change her ways of teaching. I also react to the characters such as Commander Lawrence and Moira. I also give my theories and predictions for episode 5.

What did you think of The Handmaids Tale Season 5 Episode 4? Comment your thoughts below!
Before I watch I’m mentioning the sex magick, and then the burning of the Gilliad invitation. Lots of witchcraft without discussion.
June and Luke make me sick as a couple. They make no sense together. So sad she don’t have Nick with her. She’s different now and only Nick really gets her .
Uh, you didn’t explain the ending.
I never thought I see the day I’d be rooting for Serena… wth. How did the show manage to make her likeable and turn her into a hero tf? Shes a psychopath I hated her so much I wanted to see June get her revenge but now I’m literally rooting for Serena. The show runners are really good at messing with your mind wth
I REALLY loved the parallel to mrs. wheeler and Serena, it’s literally exactly how Serena knelt before June when she was a pregnant handmaid. I really hope Serena becomes a handmaid so bad, maybe then she will start to understand how fucked up her way of thinking is, or actually she probably already does but she has never not had somewhat power before so hopefully this will be even more of a humiliating wake up call
Serena I think we'll get what she deserves
How is Serena allowed to be an ambassador if she is not suppose to be allowed to read or write?
Im just waiting for them to make her a handmaid. A big reoccurring theme with Sarina is her arrogance. She is too confident and often has to be reminded that she has no rights. Going back to giliad was clearly a horrible decision for her and her baby. I’d be curious to see how she would change her decisions if she were having a girl instead of a boy?
They will not allow an unwed woman to raise a child and a woman that is capable of caring children. She will be made into a handmaid and the son will be taken from her. Commander Waterford was her saving grace and now she has no footing.
I would like to see less about June and her mental issues and more about Janine.
I don’t know if the writers of the show are going in the direction that I think that they are going in, but I’m a woman, and I think that perhaps I understand the show differently from our narrator and content creator. I think that this interpretation of this episode is completely wrong. I think that this was actually the most pivotal episode we’ve seen so far, and I think that a lot was missed including that Serena just took a giant step into handmaid status.
Is anyone paying attention? She is unmarried, she is fertile, she is a citizen of Gilead, and the groupie at the beginning claiming that Nichole is a child of God and doesn’t belong to her own mother, who even this weird stranger referred to as a whore and a slut, was foreshadowing, and she would constitute a sinful and fallen woman. Why? Because her betrayal of her husband led to his arrest directly.
She was told when she was in Gilead that there is no architecture in Gilead for an exceptional woman. Well it doesn’t matter if you’re in a Gileadean Embassy in Canada, clearly there is still no architecture for a strong, exceptional women because they began to take authority and responsibility away from her as soon as she arrived.
I see a future episode whether it is the next one or the one after, in which she is in labor and running through trees on foot trying desperately to get to Tuolo’s house, where she will beg for help and tell him that she made a mistake and needs to take him up on the offer that he made on the day that she was discharged.
Prologue: I’m not familiar with this channel, it appeared because of a search that I did. When I went and looked at the channel content and when I listened to the creator of the channel making an offer at the end that anybody can contact him to review a show or an episode, the two things came together to tell me that he is not an avid watcher of the show, and can just as easily have really not watched it before, maybe not even all the episodes. I think a lot was missed. I don’t think that it is accurately describing anything to say that Serena using the suggestion of Nick to upset Luke would have upset Luke because Luke and June were close in the past. That’s very superficial. It’s because The entire trauma of her imprisonment and rape in Gilead led to her being in that relationship where Nick could do some thing for her and Luke couldn’t. And I think that after Luke saw Hannah on the screen in the last episode, he is finally starting to realize that there is no good reason for him to not be on the same page as June. He is starting to see it more her way. It was very sudden, but they’ve made it plausible.
You skipped the ending – Serenaʻs new (guest) digs and the creepy wife. I wouldʻve liked your insights and predictions.
I feel this season is dragging. I'm holding on though! I have to know what happens with everyone!!! I'm hooked!!! Serena is really going to regret calling Gilead her home and supporting their ways.
I feel the next episode is going to be Serena that she will be actually, the new handmaid! That would be so COOL!
The show is getting less interesting. Instead of June and the others fighting against the Commander and the powerful Gilead nation, June is stalking a powerless, broke, weak Serena. Every episode, the weaken Serena. Serena is down and out, if June keeps kicking her, we won’t be on Junes side anymore. Serena needs to come back in to true power, or a new powerful enemy needs to be introduced.
They are making Serena so weak, that I’m starting to be on her side. The show isn’t as interesting. Now Serena is afraid or June, has little protection, has no power, now money, no husband and does not have Gilead to support her.
The show is a lot less interesting since Serena, Gilead and The Commander are no longer threats to June. Serena isn’t even trying to save Handmaidens, she not trying to save her daughter, she’s not trying to bring down Gilead. June is just hunting Serena, who at this point is weak and has nothing.
Mrs. Wheeler looks so twisted and I’m already rooting for her
Serena is an eerie and evil psychopath. This will be her downfall i believe when she has no rights in Canada . She has every right to fear June .
I hate Serena so much .
Brain Washing goes very deep with Agnes and Serena
You did not explain the ending at all…waste of time
I never ever hated a character like I hateeee serena !
I know she is functional but damn it , I HATE HERRRRR
I’m not going to lie I wonder if they are going to drag this season or if June is REALLY going to get her daughter back? Or will it end with another cliff hanger and she didn’t get her daughter back? How much longer with they keep going June and Serena saga going without it dragging
I wish I could interested in this new season.. feel like I waited for months and my reaction is just not what I thought it would be
I feel like the coma somehow brought the old Jeanine back and I am so grateful! I hated what the trauma of losing her eye and being broken brought to her. Miss that fiery, potty mouthed red head!
WORST EXPLANATION EVER. DOES NOT DISCUSS THE ENDING
That lady Serena is staying with. I think she will get Serena’s baby.
I can't stand Serena …never did like her. I hope her baby gets taken away from her
