That Show F*cked Me Up!

Welcome back to a new season, f*cked up fam! After 19 seasons, I am finally brave enough to cover this gem of a show. I'm also attempting this new thing where I try to summarize instead of giving you a play-by-play recap of the whole episode, and guess how that is going...? Not great. I genuinely think I am incapable of summarizing OR I just love the writing in this show so much that I want to share it with y'all <3.

"Fleabag" follows Fleabag, our nameless main character, who is honestly sort of a mess, but at the end of the day she's also just a girl- And what is more relatable that being "just a girl"? Exactly, nothing.

Who knew that were religious groups out there who have similar beliefs to that of Gilead?! To that I ask, isn't God supposed to treat everyone with kindness, and offer a helping hand? Where did y'all read about treating women like sh!t, and only thinking they're worthy if they're able to bear children, and listen to their husbands? Gilead, Gloriavale- They both start with a G, and they both love to dress their women in long dresses and bonnets. Hope you enjoy this wrap-up episode! See you in a couple of weeks. <3

Who knew stonings could be such downers, amirite? This episode should have been called “Realizations” instead of “Night”, cause there were a couple realizations, and not enough night.

Come back next week for the wrap-up episode!

Sometimes we're at a crossroads, and other times we're at a bridge. During this episode we find out that Waterford notices more than he lets on, Moira gets some tough love from June that reminds her of who she was before, and Janine gets to make a decision- The first one she's made for herself in a long time . Hey- A stand is a stand no matter the cost!

Also, apologies for the f*cked up audio- AGAIN! I swear I've gotten the hang of it for future episodes, but I couldn't figure out how to update it for already recorded audio... Oh, well! Sowwy!

We're going on a ride through the picturesque Republic of Gilead, to get to one of the most luxurious establishment that the Lord has to offer: Jezebels. A place full of pious pretending Commanders getting to live out their most non-Godly desires, at the disposal of the women who "fought back". Cause if you can't tame them- Well, you know the rest.

Luke survived! Barely, but still he's alive! Even though it seemed like he had a death wish every time he mentioned going back for his wife and his daughter, but we know that he's just a good guy with literally no survival skills. Now he's in Canada thanks to a woman. Of course a woman is the reason that he got out. God bless the women inside and outside of Gilead.

Do you think Serena ever thought that she would take part in creating a society in which it would be illegal for her to read the book she wrote? If that doesn't scream "dumb b!tch", if that doesn't scream "pick-me", I don't know what does.

Also, I forgot to talk about this in this during the episode but the show portraying Mexico as a country where no children are being born and on the verge of collapse is so unbelievable when we all know that Mexico is probably one of the most fertile countries in the world...

Siri, queue "Unfaithful" by Rihanna, since this episode was the opposite of faithful. Also, can we talk about the iconic crash out? Emily really drove the point home (literally). Pun after pun, and Fred Waterford is finally showing his true colors after trying to come across as the 'cool' Commander, but in reality he's just as bad as the rest of them.

Fred Waterford is such a fucking nerd! He learned Latin because his parents thought it would help him do better in his SATs, and now he's a Nazi! Oh, how the turntables!

This episode shows us that the resilience and bravery of one woman can inspire others to be brave as well. Sometimes one small act of defiance can start a revolution. DON'T LET THE BASTARDS GRIND YOU DOWN!

In Gilead, women no longer have access to money, it's illegal for them to work, and they can't own property. The only time a woman is valued is when they are able to get pregnant, and bring a healthy baby into this world. Being pregnant means you get treated with a little bit of dignity, and for those Handmaids that are not able to get pregnant- They will be the ones they blame. In this new world, women have nothing but are blamed for everything.
