Spoiler Alert: Do not read if you have not yet watched “Household,” the sixth episode of the third season of “The Handmaid’s Tale.”
For two and a half seasons, life in the dystopian regime of “The Handmaid’s Tale’s” Gilead appeared to be the worst possible future for a woman like June (Elisabeth Moss). But then she traveled to what was once Washington, D.C. and saw an even darker option.
In the sixth episode of the third season of the Hulu series, entitled “Household,” June accompanied the Waterfords (Joseph Fiennes and Yvonne Strahovski) to the nation’s former capitol as part of the political tour to bring their baby back from Canada. There, handmaids had rings surgically implanted through their upper and lower lips, preventing them from speaking, and the once-inspiring architecture of the city was altered to hold the new kind of patriarchy in its image instead.
