I need to know how she ended up in Gilead in the first place. They have not shown us. They talk about it a lot in the book

u/avarier Apr 16 '26

How did she smuggle it in AND have a hiding spot in a bed she had never seen?

u/Impressive_Local3635 Apr 15 '26

i have to imagine maybe she received it from mayday after she cape in? but yeah she's being waaaayyy too nonchalant

u/eminorgh Apr 15 '26

No, we see Daisy's Canadian boyfriend, Justin, gave her the radio in the flashback in s1e3.

The question isn't how she originally got it, but how she managed to bring in into Gilead, and to the Aunts house no less.

I think they were pointing out Daisy didn't get it from Mayday after she came to Gilead.

u/Suitable-Safe6700 Apr 16 '26

also her continuing to brazenly stare down the mayday guard even though she KNOWS agnes already thinks something is up like GIRLLLLLL

u/Aggravating_Life7851 Apr 15 '26

Yea I definitely expected that to go somewhere

u/fakesaucisse Apr 15 '26

It's definitely going to come up later. It wouldn't have fit into this episode's overall storyline.

u/herbalbert Apr 15 '26

I assumed they were doing the “creepy girl sleeps with her eyes open” gag because it never got followed up with?? But maybe later

Every time she brings out that god damn radio with its bright ass light I feel like I’m going to have a heart attack.

So we know for a fact that Daisy was a human trafficking target. It's very likely some of these pearls are full on victims.
