Hulu Hoopz: The Handmaid's Tale- Episode 4

Another week and another look at a dark, Jerry Falwell future...
After delivering some news that her Masters didn't like, things aren't going well for Offred/June.
We see a nice Flashback to June with her Husband and Child.  Aw.
A mysterious Doctor checks on her before 'The Ceremony' and is seemingly up to something...
A trip outside of her normal route gives Offred/June a look at the darker World.  We also learn about how Canada is apparently not too bad.

Since a bunch of key Plot happens, I'll leave it there.  No SPOILERS.
A deep, dark Episode...that also gives them a little hope.  I can't go too much into this because I want you to watch this Show.  Without giving stuff away, we see more of the world, get a glimpse into more of the twisted logic behind this whole 'Handmaid' thing and learn about a dark secret of the house.  On top of that, Latin jokes!  It is nice to see a little bit of a turn on things, even as they get worse at times.  Considering how the last Episode ended, this is a Hallmark Film by comparison!  Other than the bleak tone of the Premise, it all continues to work for me.  As the Memes like to say, 'New Episode of The Handmaid's Tale Has Me Feeling Like'...
Next time, the Plot thickens.  Is escape ever going to be an option?  See you then...
