Notes on Schu

Angel flight: I thought it was interesting that Schu called it the Night of Tears, and Daisy called it Angel Flight. It was interesting to see two girls who are growing a friendship have two different perspectives on what happened. I also think it's interesting because for her brother to be rescued I am assuming they either stole him, or he came from a handmaids. I can not imagine that they would take a biological child of the wives and commanders to Canada and the child not be brought back.

Her cycle: I connect to Schu more than any character at this point as she crying over her period and being the last girl, doing everything right, and still not be able to be fruitful. I struggled with my fertility and have had to let go of the idea of having a child and I could feel her pain. I know that pain. Side note I've been penny, and it breaks my heart she doesn't have the support she needs.

Sex: these girls really don't know what sex or their bodies and it's horrible, the sexual abuse must be insane in gilead.

Things I would like to see in The Testaments

  1. the girls PMSING, I would love to see them crying for no reason, starving and eating everything in site, full on cramps, the full shebang. And I would love them to all link up at the same time. Like if we're going to do it let's do it. They're making the whole getting the period to much fun.

  2. as bad as the girls have it I can only imagine how bad the boys have it, so a glimpse into that would be great.

  3. anything Econ of course.

  4. The ratio of period girls and non period girls.

And lastly

  1. the discovery of the freedoms of the past.

Ok so I've read the book and I'm watching the show and I am wondering if the following will happen and thought I would bring it to the group for thoughts and feelings.

There are possible spoilers so please read if you're ok with spoilers.

**********************************************************

  1. Do we think that Commander Judd will find a way to get rid of Penny? If you know about Judd then you know.

  2. Do we think Schu will get her period or will this be a jumping point for what happens if a plum doesn't get their period?

  3. Why do we think Vidala looked shook when Huldah got her period? Is it because of her age? Also how is Huldah now eligible, she didn't do the tea or prom? I feel like she should wait until then next season.

  4. Will Jehosheba cont to behave in a monstrous way?
