From major highlights to background context, get a complete picture of June Could Return to a Version of Gilead in 'The Handmaid's Tale' in our latest feature.

Lawrence tries to sell the idea of New Bethlehem to June by telling her that he can make sure Hannah lives there once she's married. June would be allowed to bring her family and start a new life there, with both of her children. But this also means June will have to give up some of her rights and give up her fight for Hannah for the time being.

But Lawrence promises her protection thanks to Nick, who will also be in New Bethlehem. It's a near perfect setup for June. There's a lot of uncertainty that comes with it, however. And, as we see at the end of the episode, Tuello might be able to get Hannah out before June has to move to New Bethlehem. Right now, she could go either way.
