00:00This is the beginning of the end.
00:08The stakes are so much higher this season.
00:10Naturally, because it's the final season.
00:12At the beginning of season six,
00:14June now trying to bring down Gilead,
00:16voluntarily joining the fight
00:18as opposed to being forced into the fight.
00:20These people are not professionals.
00:22You will not survive.
00:23It's a lot more action-packed.
00:25If you want to fight, then let's fight together.
00:28They will never see us coming.
00:34Oh, hell no.
00:36This season, we really find our characters
00:38at various inflection points.
00:41The trajectory for Serena has changed.
00:43All of our choices from season one
00:45through almost to the end
00:47have been about wanting a baby.
00:49But now she wants June's forgiveness.
00:51June and Serena's relationship
00:53is the center of the show.
00:55Without them, we don't have six seasons.
00:57of The Handmaid's Tale.
00:59I just really thought you wanted to change.
01:01I have changed.
01:02It's really, really been an epic battle.
01:05The final season.
01:07Lawrence wants to make a Hong Kong.
01:10It's the idea of Gilead having a separate offshoot
01:15that was a little less oppressive and totalitarian.
01:19I believe that God put me here to change the country.
01:23She does agree to go back with Lawrence to New Bethlehem.
01:25It's like a chess move.
01:27Let's make this happen.
01:28Let's do it together.
01:30When I imagined the show,
01:32the idea that there would be a love triangle
01:33at the center of it was the last thing I was thinking.
01:35Do you even know what it's like to be in love with you?
01:37I've raised everything I have.
01:39But you chose your husband.
01:41Nick is walking a very shaky tightrope throughout the season
01:45under a lot of stress.
01:47You have so much potential.
01:49You need to show the allegiance to our country.
01:52You're starting to see some of the edges fray on Nick
01:55this season in a different way than we've seen before.
01:57Luke finally starts to criticize what Nick has done in Gilead.
02:01He doesn't want us to win.
02:03I wanted it to come out.
02:05I don't know what to do.
02:07Don't be in love with a fucking Nazi.
02:09The impact of the show is that it's become part of the cultural zeitgeist.
02:15And to hear from Margaret Atwood,
02:17that nothing that happens in The Handmaid's Tale is made up.
02:20Have mercy for what they've done.
02:22They have been prisoners of wicked, godless men.
02:26I don't think we could ever have predicted the social impact
02:30that the show has had.
02:32The symbolism of the show,
02:34the red handmaid's costume,
02:37you'll see it all over the place.
02:39Praise be.
02:40This season feels like it's for the fans.
02:44Patience rewarded.
02:48Let's see this through.
02:51Let the revolution begin.
03:00We're done.
03:01We're horrible.
03:02We're happy to do the culture,
03:03you're lovely dong.
03:04We're happy to do this on our side.
03:05We're always happy to see that everyone won't do your потр phosphor on the sky.
03:07We're happy to get used over this town as well.
03:09We're happy to meet another town as well.
03:10We'll be terrified and we'll continue Sky dollars.
03:11major pen,
03:12eagerly blue.
03:14Which is one of the options for everyone going about.
03:16I hope that just took part .
03:18To be seen the of us,
03:19we hope.
03:20Our bodyguard and I feel paper opted!
03:22It's scared.
