The premiere of "Maid's Story" 6, "Train", was very reminiscent of Visual visual hoses in "Mother!" to Darren Aronofsky. The train to Alaska reveals the true identity of Serena. Instead of taking her to custody, police are ready to let white female travelers break Serena (and her baby). The Ennie was rightly angry at Serena, who played a major role in creating a theocratic company that forced them to exhaust labor and sexual abuse. It is a daunting scene made even more intense than claustrophobic framing, where women catch directly in the camera and then smear the window glass. Although June is frustrated by Serena's help when she is not feeling well, she still saves Serena by pushing her off the train.

Serena's relationship and June were unstable and complex, to say at least. Serena was easy to hate for all the repulsive things she did in June: beating her, orchestrated her rape from Fred, forcing June to sleep with Nick before she imagined and refuses to release June Nicole. The most painful, she was constantly tightening her daughter in June, Hannah in front of her, in order to keep June in line.

For most viewers, it was a pleasure when Serena began to be treated as a maid from Wilders, who tried to steal her son Noah. But then the series threw a curve, Having both June and Serena to take more opportunities to kill each other. June even helps Serena give birth to Noah. June continues to offer compassion to Serena when he saved her from angry Tol. This forces us, as viewers, to think about how we feel Serena. If June can show her mercy, can we? Most of all, does Serena deserve it?

Yvonne Strahovski, who plays Serena, told Hollywood reporter That every nessicity Serena extends to June is extremely self -service: "Serena will continue to try to fasten to June because it is all she has, and she is desperate. Her mummy bear has joined forces with her inner manipulator, which creates an interesting combination."

Serena spared her life in June 5th, as June was the only one that could help her during her work. In "Train", she looks over Nicole and helps June to rest just because she relies on her strength. Shelter, comfortable life and fear of Serena from exposure makes it difficult to fully navigate the harsh reality of the broken society that helped to build.

Serena showed occasional remorse throughout the series, including her presentation of a new Bethlehem in "Dedication": "I did terrible things because I felt powerless and so I did power over those around me." Standing to Noah's mother seems to make her understand the unwavering relationship between mother and child, helping Her understand why June's split from Jana and Nicole were so fatal. However, Serena's own motherhood does not release her from her past actions. She tries to use Noah as a protective shield against the women who beat her, but never cared enough for her children to protect them from any horror or violence.

Despite the glittering of the self -awareness, Serena still has a godly faith and the lust of power as the face of a new Bethlehem. That ambition can, in future episodes, make her do everything it takes to support this new, softer version of Gilead - one without all those annoying human rights violations and "spilling blood".

While we can still be conflicting, Yvon Strahovski is firmer in her position whether Serena will eventually change:

"I want to be the bearer of the great news and say," I think she will turn out to be just an ellevel person! "But I don't think she can. I think it's not capable. "

Gilead is undoubtedly evil, but the morality of whether we should forgive those who participated is dark. The principles of the Christian Faith Center for forgiveness, one that is unlimited and even extends to the worst of your enemies. If June is Being able to fully forgive Serena for everything she has done, it will make her more like Christ than anyone in Gilead.

But even if you believe that there is goodness in everyone, and Serena eventually repents, maybe some actions are truly unforgivable. If we surrender to our furious desire to see her suffering, are we as bad as Gilead's leaders? In a way, we deal with this in our Current political climateWhere the government removes human rights with extreme policies, we may still have family and friends who voted that way. We have to wait for the rest of the last season to see if Serena will use her sins or burn in the hell of their own making.
