Since The Handmaid's Tale began, viewers have no doubt been hoping that this nightmare would come to an end and that June would escape, but the threat of what would happen if she was unsuccessful always loomed over her.

As her pregnancy is somewhat of a safety net, June has a window of opportunity to escape again. But with a failed attempt already under her belt, will she try again? While punishment was light, this doesn't mean that she is off the hook. Serena will no doubt be watching her like a hawk, and will make contemplating an escape much more difficult.
