Ann 'gets' the assignment. Understands it through and through. That's why she's such a phenomenal actor.

There you have it! Lydia gets her redemption arc. She was shielding herself from the truth, but she had the capacity to see things clearly. She's not dumb or naive. She understands the power games that commanders play. Maybe her journey of discovery and change will probably be short and swift. This is enlightening. Thank you for doing this!

Lydia gets her redemption arc all right! Please read the Testaments or listen to the Audible production. Ann Dowd does Aunt Lydia's part of the narration of that book and it is so good! So satisfying, I think, for fans of the Handmaid's Tale.

I don't think people understand what Gilead has done to the aunts. It is a brutal and horrific system. In the beginning, they were tortured and brainwashed into serving gilead. The testaments go into that in detail about how the aunts were trained.

Aunt Lydia's theology has always differed slightly from Gilead's. Remember when they threw a banquet showing off the handmaids and their offspring to the delegation from Mexico? They wanted to hide the handmaids that had been mutilated and Lydia strongly objected because she saw them as just as worthy. Which is messed up in and of itself, because what made them worthy was being compliant sex slaves, but Lydia has always been a mix of naivete and cunning. Her pre-Gilead backstory makes me hate her more than anything though for separating a mother and child. I want to see a confrontation over that.
