- Aunt Lydia Clements: Her attitude seems... much improved.
- Serena Joy Waterford: It's everything a wife could ask for. She's quite unlike herself.
- Aunt Lydia Clements: Mrs. Waterford, no small effort has been made to bring Offred to heel.
- Serena Joy Waterford: Do you know Ofzachary?
- June Osborne: Not well, Mrs. Waterford.
- Serena Joy Waterford: She may be God's chosen vessel, but I'm surprised He wants to pass along that nose of hers.
- Emily Malek: Gilead took your eye. They took my clit. Now we're cows being worked to death, and you're dressing up the slaughterhouse for them! That is a fucking problem!
- [stalks off]
- Janine Lindo: Cows don't get married.
- Janine Lindo: Are ya gonna help Kit?
- Emily Malek: She doesn't want me to waste the medicine.
- Janine Lindo: Kit's dying?
- Emily Malek: We come here, we work... we die.
- Fred Waterford: You're on your way now, son. Gilead values the family. And rewards those... who live by those values.
- Nick Blaine: By God's grace I'll have a child of my own someday, sir.
- June Osborne: [voiceover] You're tough, aren't you?... Now, you listen to me. 'Kay? I will not... let you grow up in this place. I won't do it. Do you hear me? They... they do not own you. And they do not own what you will become. Do you hear me? I'm gonna get you out of here.
- Aunt Lydia Clements: Did you know your baby is the size of a papaya now?
- Fred Waterford: A papaya... is that right?
- Serena Joy Waterford: Did Offred ask you to talk to me?
- Nick Blaine: No, ma'am.
- Serena Joy Waterford: Well, I don't know what to tell you.
- Nick Blaine: She doesn't have anyone to look out for her.
- Serena Joy Waterford: It appears that she does.
- [a long look passes between them]
- Serena Joy Waterford: The handmaid is not your concern.
- Emily Malek: They could starve us. They could do a lot of things. I'm trying to keep you alive!
- Janine Lindo: That's not up to you.
- Emily Malek: God's watching over us?
- Janine Lindo: [nods]
- Emily Malek: Shit job He's doing!
- Janine Lindo: Well... Aunt Lydia says we can't know everything He's thinking.
- Emily Malek: Fuck Aunt Lydia! This place is hell! And covering it up in flowers doesn't change anything!
- Janine Lindo: So, what? We come here, we work, we die. Kit's going to die happy, so what's the problem?
- Aunt Lydia Clements: Quitting is very hard. I used to smoke, too. Once upon a time. I'm pleased that everything's going so well with the baby.
- Serena Joy Waterford: As our doctor would happily tell you.
- Aunt Lydia Clements: Have I let myself become a bother? There's so much more to a successful pregnancy than can be measured in a doctor's office. The ventilation in the handmaid's room. The firmness of the bed. The mood in the household.
- Serena Joy Waterford: She never misses a chance to complain about that baby, does she?
- June Osborne: No, Mrs. Waterford.
- Serena Joy Waterford: [Turns to stop her and confront her] These walks are for both of us, so that the baby can hear my voice. I would appreciate it if I didn't have to make all the speeches. All right?
- June Osborne: Yes, Mrs. Waterford.
- Serena Joy Waterford: "Yes, Mrs. Waterford, no, Mrs. Waterford" - what is the matter with you?
- June Osborne: Nothing, Mrs. Waterford.
