Moira: The kid’s fucked up. He missed Gilead.
Emily: Like you said, “Better here than there.”
Moira: Eventually. I mean right now it sucks for a lot of them, the ones that got ripped from the only families they remember.
Emily: I guess June didn’t think that part through.
Moira: ‘Cause that’s what she does. Takes the big swing and fuck the consequences. God knows I can be a messy bitch, but that one… I love her, and I miss her, and I am worried about her. And I love Nicole, but I never wanted to be a mom.
Emily: Why do you feel you have to clean up June’s messes?
Moira: Fuck if I know. Making up for when I got out, and she didn’t, I guess. I’m tired of feeling guilty.
Emily: I get it. She gave me her baby and stayed behind. Who does that?
Moira: Ugh, are we terrible people?
Emily: Maybe, but I don’t think so.

The Handmaid's Tale Season 4 Episode 2 Quotes

Moira: Thank you for speaking.
Rita: Well, Luke asked me, so I couldn’t say no.
Moira: Sure you could. Free means you’re free to say no.
Rita: Well, being here is a gift, and I thank god for it every day and for June.
Moira: Well, June’s still there, raising hell.
Rita: I keep her in my prayers.
Moira: Pray for Gilead.

When I first met June, I didn’t think she could do something like this, save all of these children, save me. Angels Flight is because of her. She got us out, and she stayed behind to keep fighting even knowing what that could mean. Gilead has a way of bringing out the worst in people, but in June it brought out the best.
