June: Did anyone ever ask you to be a Godmother, in the time before?
Aunt Lydia: I will make allowances for girls in your condition, but not for insolence.
June: This baby is going to come into this house very soon, and in my experience, any man who would hurt a woman would hurt a child.
Aunt Lydia: What are you saying?
June: I'm saying... I'm saying this baby needs protection.
Aunt Lydia: I would never ever let anything happen to a baby.
June: Praise be. Aunt Lydia, thank you.

Aunt Lydia: I was Godmother to my sister's child. He died when he was four days old.
June: Sorry.
Aunt Lydia: It wasn't my fault.

June: What?
Nick: I met your husband.
June: Luke?
Nick: He came after the Commander, called him out, scared him. Definitely.
June: Did he get hurt?
Nick: No. I found him after, gave him the letters. He's the one. He's the one who got them out.
June: Did he seem... Did he seem OK? Was he OK?
Nick: He loves you. He told me he'll never stop.
June: Thank you for that. Thank you for bringing me that.

Nick: He wanted me to tell you that Moira got out, too.
June: Moira?
Nick: I think she's staying with him now.
June: [laughing and crying] Oh my god, they could kill each other.
Nick: I should go. Eden's probably wondering.
June: Yes, OK.
Nick: I love you. [Kisses her on the cheek]

[talking to her baby] I know I should accept the reality of you being born here, but fuck that.

June

The Handmaid's Tale Season 2 Episode 9 Quotes

Serena Joy: Offred, I've given it some thought, and you'll be leaving the house as soon as the baby is born.
June: No. Handmaid's stay until the baby is weaned.
Serena Joy: I think we've all had more than enough of one another, don't you?
June: [shakes her head no while saying] Yes, Mrs. Waterford.

This trip is for the baby. We're building his future. You're a crucial part of that. The Canadians think women here are oppressed, that they're voiceless. I need you to show them a strong Gilead wife. Look to find a virtuous woman for her price is far above rubies. Why don't you get cleaned up?
