00:04For those who are truly righteous, he sometimes sends a refuge.
00:07The wheelers arranged all of this?
00:09Yeah, as soon as they knew you might be staying.
00:12Isn't it incredible? It's a full birthing suite.
00:15I'm going for a walk.
00:17Absolutely not.
00:18You need to rest. Your baby needs to rest.
00:21Go to your room.
00:23Come on, come on. We can make it.
00:25Right there.
00:26Get down!
00:30He's not fighting you! Stop it! He's not fucking fighting you!
00:36I never gave up hope.
00:39And you never gave up hope.
00:41Because we knew that we would find each other again.
00:45June Osborn was apprehended by one of my teams in No Man's Land.
00:50They don't want him!
00:51Dump him!
00:52No, no, no! We saved it again!
00:53No, no, no! Where are you taking it?
00:55What's going to happen to her?
00:56I'm going to send Ezra to No Man's Land
00:59and have him deal with her there.
01:01I want to go with Ezra.
01:03Bear witness.
01:10Serena, what the fuck are you doing?
01:11Just drive!
01:29Where the fuck are we going?
01:30Just keep driving.
01:31Where?
01:32To Toronto?
01:33To Gilead?
01:34Is that what you're doing so they can fucking kill me there, Serena?
01:36What about Luke, Serena?
01:37What are those guys going to do to him?
01:38Jesus Christ!
01:39I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
01:40You're fucking sorry!
01:41You're fucking sorry!
01:42Fuck this!
01:44No, no!
01:45June?
01:46June!
01:47June!
01:48June!
01:49June!
01:50I'm not gonna shoot you!
01:52June!
02:05Please!
02:06June, June, I'm not gonna shoot you!
02:08June please!
02:09June!
02:10Shoot you! June, please! June!
02:40Are you in fucking labor?
03:01Of course you are. Jesus Christ!
03:05Would you give this to me, waving it around?
03:08When did it start? I don't know. A while ago.
03:11Okay. Has your water broken?
03:12Mm-hmm.
03:13Um, how far apart are the contractions?
03:16Oh. Okay, close.
03:18Do you have a phone? No.
03:20Okay, get out. Come on. What?
03:22Get out of the fucking car, please. Oh, God.
03:24Why?
03:26It's border even in here. I'm gonna try to get us out of here.
03:29Okay? Get you to a doctor. No.
03:32Yes, Serena. You're gonna have to go to a hospital.
03:35No hospital. They're gonna find me there.
03:37Who the fuck is gonna find you?
03:43Fuck it!
03:44Ugh. Oh, my God.
03:46Whoa.
03:47All right.
03:49Who the fuck was that guy? Who was that guy you shot?
03:51Oh...
03:52Who was he?
03:54Are you trying to get away or something?
03:57Oh, okay.
04:05Okay.
04:05Oh, my God.
04:15Okay.
04:16Okay. Come with me. We gotta get you inside.
04:18Where?
04:19We're gonna take you to that barn.
04:20A barn?
04:21Yes, a barn. You have a better idea, Serena?
04:22No. No, no, no.
04:23You think so.
04:24Okay, wait, wait.

04:31Oh. Lovely.
04:54I'm so sorry to be late.
04:55Fred needed some encouragement before his address to the council.
04:59You know how men can be.
05:02We understand completely.

20:41oh

20:44oh
20:45oh
20:46oh
20:47oh

21:48oh
21:49oh
21:50oh
21:51oh
21:52oh
21:53oh
21:54oh
21:55I waited so long for you.
21:58I wanted you so much.
22:02Was it worth it?
22:12Right now, I think it was.
22:18How's his latch?
22:21It's strong.
22:22He's hungry.
22:25Hannah had such a hard time breastfeeding.
22:31It was a tongue tie, which we didn't know,
22:36but I would just feed her and feed her,
22:39and she was still hungry, and then I felt so guilty.
22:43She used to get so many colds when she was little,
22:45and I thought that was my fault because of the nursing.
22:49But then it turned out she got colds when she got older, too, so...
22:52Sometimes I'd have to stay home from work with her,
22:57and sometimes I couldn't stay home from work.
23:03Sometimes I didn't want to stay home from work.
23:05June.
23:13June.
23:17Why didn't you kill me?
23:18You've been the one waving the gun around.
23:29No, not today, at the information center, the protest.
23:35You had a gun.
23:38Yeah.
23:38Why didn't you kill me?
23:44Why Fred and not me?
23:56I didn't want to.
23:58Why would you kill me?
24:21I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry.
24:22I didn't want to.
24:23I imagine this moment so many times.
24:33I always imagine that he would be here.
24:39Fred.
24:43He looks like him.
24:44They say that they always look like their dads at first.
24:57It's evolutionary.
25:00So that the dads don't kill them, you know?
25:05Evolution.
25:14Do you think he's going to be like him?
25:28It depends.
25:31On what?
25:32On who raises him.
25:37On what kind of person they want him to become.
25:44On what you teach him.
25:53And on what you tell him is his.
25:57To take.
26:06I want him to have everything.
26:11We all want that for them, Serena.
26:14Oh, oh.
26:17Oh.
26:23Oh.
26:23Oh.
26:24Oh.
26:24Yeah.
26:54Well, is he okay?
27:07No, he's perfect.
27:12It's funny how every tiny baby you see makes you feel like you've never seen a baby before.
27:20I tried to sleep.
27:21You did sleep.
27:25I just kept worrying that I would smother him in these blankets and things.
27:31You're not supposed to have a bedding like this.
27:38We have to get you both somewhere inside, Serena, okay?
27:42Somewhere where they can take care of you.
27:44No.
27:45I told you I can't go to a hospital. They'll find me there.
27:48Who will find you?
27:49The Wheelers.
27:51The family that I've been staying with, they were the ones looking for you.
27:59They've been controlling me.
28:03My every move, they're everywhere.
28:04That's like I'm their handmaid.
28:11It's like I'm you.
28:12As awful as that sounds.
28:18Yes.
28:19Which is why they can't find me, and I can't let them get their hands on my baby.
28:23So you understand. I know that you do.
28:25Serena, you have no water.
28:27You have no food.
28:28It's freezing.
28:29But I'm so hot.
28:30No, I know.
28:31Well, that's because you have a fever.
28:32So we have to get you the fuck out of this barn.
28:35And take you somewhere where they can take care of you.
28:38Or you are both going to die.
28:42And it will not be quick.
28:44Do you want to watch your baby slowly starve to death in front of you?
28:49While you die of sepsis?
28:57No.
28:57Maybe you should take him.
29:11What are you talking about?
29:15There's nothing left for me here.
29:17I can't go to Canada.
29:20I can't go back to Gilead.
29:23It's over.
29:25They don't have a future.
29:27But you have a future.
29:32Maybe you could take him with you.
29:36Serena, you don't know what you're saying.
29:38I know that I want what's best for him,
29:40like what you did with Nicole.
29:42With your daughter.
29:47He would be safe with you.
29:49You could care for him.
29:52You and your husband.
29:53And he's a good man.
29:55He could teach Noah to be a good man.
30:01The kind of man who would never do the things that his father did.
30:05The things that I did.
30:13June, I think God sent you to me today.
30:26You came after me.
30:28What if he guided my hand to save you so that you could save my baby like an angel?
30:33Oh, shit.
30:34There are avenging angels that rain down sulfur and fire from the Lord.
30:41Rejoice with him.
30:42No heavens.
30:45For he will avenge the blood of his children.
30:49And take righteous vengeance on his adversaries.
30:53They're still angels.
30:58Maybe that's what you are for me.
31:08Is that what you think of me?
31:10No.
31:11And when she could no longer hide him,
31:19she built for him an ark of bulrushes and placed this child therein.
31:25Maybe I'm the ark, too.
31:34Maybe I'm the vessel.
31:38I...
31:39Carried my baby.
31:44I delivered him.
31:47And I held him.
31:49Maybe that's all that was meant for me in this life.
32:02Maybe it's God's will.
32:03No.
32:06I...
32:06No.
32:16No.
32:23Oh.
32:24God's will.
32:54A vessel.
33:01That's what you thought I was.
33:08What we were.
33:17Who we were.
33:21Where we came from.
33:26What we wanted.
33:33None of that mattered to you.
33:40To any of you.
33:46I'm so sorry.
33:47I don't care that you're sorry.
33:52We mattered.
33:54We were.
33:58We are.
33:59People.
34:04We have lives.
34:07And that's why I'm gonna save yours Serena.
34:22Because this isn't Gilead.
34:27And I am not you.
34:34I don't deserve to be saved.
34:36It's not for you.
34:40It's for him.
34:46Look at him.
34:49Look at your baby.
34:53You are the only person in the whole world that he knows.
34:58You are the only familiar smile.
35:01You are the only voice he recognizes.
35:08You love him.
35:14And you wanted him so much.
35:21You are his mother.
35:26And he belongs with you.
35:35That is God's will.
35:42You are the only person in the whole world.
35:58Do you understand me?
36:03Excuse me.
36:14Could you please help us?
36:16Immediate post pardon?
36:17Yes.
36:18Six hours.
36:19Maybe hate.
36:20Hate maternity and NICU.
36:21Let's get some fluid.
36:22It's gonna be fine.
36:23They're gonna help you.
36:24I promise.
36:25It's gonna be alright.
36:26Sit down.
36:27Here we go.
36:28Any complications?
36:29They're doing just fine.
36:31June.
36:32It's gonna be okay.
36:33Just go with them and do what they say.
36:34It's gonna be fine.
36:35They're gonna take care of him.
36:36Okay?
36:37I'm gonna be right here.
36:38Okay?
36:39It's gonna be okay.
36:40Let's get the baby to the NICU.
36:41He's on call right now.
36:42He's on the other way.
36:44How are you feeling now?
36:51Excuse me.
36:52Can I please?
36:53Use your phone.
36:54I'm fine.
36:55Can I just please use your phone?
36:56Please.
36:57Down mine first.
37:01I'm fine.
37:02I'm fine.
37:03I'm fine.
37:04I'm fine.
37:05I'm fine.
37:06I'm fine.
37:07June?
37:16Hi.
37:19They took Noah to the NICU.
37:23That's okay.
37:31Look, you had a fever, right?
37:34So...
37:35He's fine.
37:36It's standard.
37:37They just...
37:38They need to keep an eye on him.
37:39Right.
37:40That's what they said.
37:41It's just observation.
37:42Except he didn't have a fever.
37:43He just was having trouble regulating his...
37:46His temperature.
37:47And they said, um...
37:48That he might have, uh...
37:50Jaundice.
37:51But they're not sure.
37:52So...
37:53They have to run some tests.
37:54Yeah.
37:55That's all very normal.
37:56That's what they keep saying.
37:57It's just all so, um...
37:59Impersonal and...
38:02I don't know.
38:03Very...
38:04Medical.
38:05How are you feeling?
38:09Uh...
38:10My fever is down.
38:11They gave me antibiotics.
38:12I guess they don't trust anything to resolve naturally here.
38:15They're not letting me feed him.
38:16They're waiting for us both to be fully hydrated again.
38:17That's good.
38:18They're giving him formula.
38:19He'll be fine.
38:20I promise.
38:21I promise.
38:22I promise.
38:24They're not letting me feed him.
38:29They're waiting for us both to be fully hydrated again.
38:33That's good.
38:34They're giving him a formula.
38:36He'll be fine.
38:39I promise.
38:51I just want to go home.
38:53There is no home, Serena.
39:03There's just wherever you are.
39:11No man's land.
39:15Yeah.
39:16June.
39:36You're welcome.
39:50You're welcome.
39:50I'm coming to you.
40:11Luke, we were here.
40:35Moira said they let you go.
40:38At the border.
40:41I'm so happy to see your face.
40:48Jenna, we did it.
40:50Twalo's got the USB.
40:52He's working on it.
40:55Oh, thank you.
40:57Oh, thank you.
40:59Are you okay?
41:00Did she hurt you?
41:03No, she...
41:04She had her baby.
41:07Why, you were there.
41:09Yeah.
41:10Uh, it's, um, it's a boy, and he's healthy.
41:14Well, healthy enough.
41:16He may have jaundice, but that's, you know, that's completely normal for babies, right?
41:21So they may just put him under one of those little lamps, and then he'll just...
41:25What's going on with Serena?
41:27She's fine.
41:32She's...
41:33She's fine.
41:36Yeah, let's, um, I'll tell you later.
41:38Let's go home.
41:40Oh, hold on.
41:41Give me a Serena Waterford's room.
41:432-11, down the hall.
41:44What's going on?
41:51Don't worry.
41:52They're not here for us.
41:54Come on.
41:56What's...
41:57Serena Waterford.
42:04We are Canadian Immigration.
42:06You are being detained.
42:08Detained?
42:09No.
42:09Hey!
42:13I'd like to speak with a lawyer.
42:15As an undocumented person, you have no immediate right to counsel.
42:19What is going on?
42:21Illegal border crossing.
42:22Lack of immigration status.
42:24I mean, there must be some mistakes.
42:26You called them?
42:27She gave up her diplomatic reason when she left that little visitor center.
42:30What about my baby?
42:37The detention facility has no infant care.
42:53What does that mean?
42:57Where is my baby right now?
43:00Child Protection Unit is already here.
43:03They'll oversee his care.
43:04That's all I can tell you.
43:05No, you can't do that.
43:07No, please.
43:08Please.
43:08Wait, wait.
43:10Oh, please.
43:11Don't say...
43:11At last.
43:13She knows what it feels like.
43:15Oh, please.
43:16Don't.
43:17Please.
43:19Please.
43:21Just...
43:21Just don't let them take my baby, please.
43:25Justice.
43:26Right?
43:28Hey.
43:28Hey.
43:28Help me, please.
43:31Please don't let them take you from me.
43:33Please die.
