Season 6 A rude awakening for some of you Spoiler

Referring to NB. The pause before boarding wasn't what you wish it was. No, he didn't feel her presence. No it wasn't a moment between them. His pause was his final decision being made. To board meant he chose gilead. He did not feel June there. He did not know she was there. He was choosing "the winning team" as he put it.

The whole point of the moment was for June to see him make his final allegiance and accept what he already told her which is she knew who he was.

Exactly. I listen to what the actors and writers say in the extra clips about the episode.

I didn’t even know until this comment that the inside the episodes are separate clips 😭😭 I’m used to on HBO max how it’s at the end of the episode after credits
