    The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 Episode 8
    May 19 2025
    THE HANDMAID'S TALE Season 6 Episode 8 - “Exodus” - June and Moira execute their dangerous plan. Serena makes a big commitment. (Disney/Steve Wilkie). The revolution has begun. In The Handmaid's Tale Season 6 Episode 8 "Exodus", the carefully plotted rebellion against Gilead erupts during Serena Joy’s wedding, shifting the tide of power in ways we’ve long hoped—and feared. On this week’s podcast, Paul and Caroline unpack the episode’s three central storylines and what they mean for the final stretch of the series. The episode unfolds through three distinct perspectives: Serena’s Wedding:It’s the centerpiece of the rebellion. The plan to bomb Jezebels has been replaced with something quieter but just as deadly: poison. Serena’s maroon wedding cake becomes a focal point—rich in symbolism, according to Paul and Caroline, who debate its possible meanings. The poison weakens the guests, setting the stage for the handmaids to strike later that night. But what comes next for Serena? In the final scenes inside her and Wharton’s new home, we’re left wondering: Is she a survivor, a pawn, or a player? THE HANDMAID'S TALE Season 6 Episode 8 - “Exodus” - June and Moira execute their dangerous plan. Serena makes a big commitment. (Disney/Steve Wilkie)ELISABETH MOSS June’s Command:June leads from the front, orchestrating the handmaids’ infiltration and managing the rebellion in real time. Paul and Caroline discuss June’s transformation into a true field general—steely, smart, and still deeply human. They also wrestle with the looming question: what does a “win” even look like for June at this point, and is it within reach? THE HANDMAID'S TALE Season 6 Episode 8 - “Exodus” - June and Moira execute their dangerous plan. Serena makes a big commitment. (Disney/Steve Wilkie)THE HANDMAID’S TALE Aunt Lydia’s Reckoning:The final storyline brings us to Aunt Lydia, whose breaking point finally arrives at the Red Center. Surrounded by Janine and the other handmaids, she is forced to confront the consequences of her life’s work. In her quiet moments and subtle gestures, a transformation begins—one that may redefine her future in Gilead. THE HANDMAID'S TALE Season 6 Episode 8 - “Exodus” - June and Moira execute their dangerous plan. Serena makes a big commitment. (Disney/Steve Wilkie)THE HANDMAID’S TALE With explosive action, raw emotion, and thematic depth, “Exodus” delivers a powerful step toward the endgame. Paul and Caroline are here to guide you through every decision, every cost, and every unanswered question.
