I was disappointed when we didn't get a real account of how things changed. It's shown like it almost happened overnight. But this episode's insight on the political formation of the society, before it happens, was interesting. It's not the US and the laws that really changed, it's a coup, well prepared by a religious organization. Nice touch that Serena was part of it, that makes her character really exist instead if just being the crazy hysteric wife.

Congratulations to Mexico on actually sending a woman ambassador. Strange though that they haven't got a live child in six years. Gilead does not have the monopoly on fertile women, they just industrialized it. And there actually aren't that many. What we're seeing are probably most of them. The country's not that big, and the main ruling class is here. There may be one or two other big cities left, that's it. So do they really have enough to sell ?. And couldn't Mexico have at least as many fertile women some of whom would have a baby at some point ? Gilead's medecine level does not seem that high either because of the religious society, so no help on that.

Still really don't get the Nick fling.

Moss's end monologue was a great performance.

Now the ending's bullshit. So the Mexican aide knows the faces of thousands of missing person and the name of all their loved one so that he recognize her and match her to her husband ? Or he knew beforehand so they have a network of spy that is so good that they know exactly who is in commander's houses and who they were and who he was going to meet, etc ? That's ridiculous.
