The Handmaid’s Tale Season 3 Episode 11 Recap

In the previous episode of Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale, Commander Lawrence promised June that he would help her get children out of Gilead, while the response from the Marthas was overwhelming. In The Handmaid’s Tale Season 3 Episode 11, June learned that it won’t be as easy as she thought, and the Waterfords took a drive to meet Tuello.

52 Children

The muffin response from the Marthas indicated that they had 52 children they were willing to move. The only problem was that the leadership in the Marthas’ network wanted June to stand down. After June’s conviction convinced them to let her move forward, they indicated that a bartender at Jezebel’s named Billy had access to a cargo plane.

Breakfast Uneaten

June walked in on Eleanor with a gun to Joseph’s head. June calmly talked her down. Though she completely understood Eleanor’s reasoning, June needed him for her plan.

The Marthas’ visit distracted June and Beth. Sienna found Eleanor’s breakfast still outside her door, uneaten. No one had seen the Commander. They realized that the Lawrences were gone. The gun incident had pushed Joseph into action. However, Joseph came back, not because of his conscience but because he no longer had the proper authorizations. The Eyes were onto him. Sensing his eventual doom, Joseph promised June that he would find her a kind commander, but June insisted that he take her to Jezebel’s right then.
