Quotes5

  • Serena Joy Waterford: I want her out of my house.
  • Fred Waterford: Why don't you sit down...
  • Serena Joy Waterford: No, you said it would be my decision.
  • Fred Waterford: Yes.
  • Serena Joy Waterford: Good! Good, then she'll go back to the Red Center and she'll have the baby, and then I don't care where she goes after that!
  • Fred Waterford: Are you certain that's what you want?
  • Serena Joy Waterford: I can't have her in the house, Fred.
  • Fred Waterford: You're strong. You don't want to miss this pregnancy. We've missed so much already. You deserve this... and you're not gonna let her take any part of it away from you. You're gonna be a wonderful mother. Just think about the baby. Not her. She's nothing.
  • Serena Joy Waterford: [Grabs June by the throat] Ninety-two days!
  • [They glare into each other's eyes for nearly 20 seconds before Serena releases her]
  • June Osborne: [after coughing and gasping] Serena... remember... long as my baby is safe... so is yours.
  • Serena Joy Waterford: [embracing June's four-month-pregnant belly while June pretends to be asleep] All will be well... and all will be well. All manner of things will be well. Mama loves you.
  • Aunt Lydia Clements: Mrs. Waterford, I've worked with many wives and handmaids. This part is always hard.
  • Serena Joy Waterford: Mothers. Mothers and handmaids.
  • Aunt Lydia Clements: [nods] Ah. It's only natural to resent her. God will forgive you for that.
  • Serena Joy Waterford: Well, she makes it difficult.
  • Aunt Lydia Clements: Mm. She's strong. But that means your child will be strong.
  • Aunt Lydia Clements: You understand that everything that happens now must be for the good of the child?
  • Serena Joy Waterford: Are you sure that she understands that?
  • Aunt Lydia Clements: I will make sure of it.
