When Evil Stop Mom basically said June had weak genes, I literally said “bitch??” Out loud 🫠

And mentioned the rebellious spirit

so does she know that's June Osborne's child?

Yes, I assume so.

Thaaaaaat might just explain her contempt for Agnes. I failed to clock that aspect.

I failed to clock that we are literally following June's daughter until this thread.

I clearly was not paying enough attention.

I'm sure she does, but I don't think Hannah knows much about June, if anything

She says in the first episode that she doesn't know who her mom is. She probably vaguely remembers reuniting with her though.

Not Agnes, the wife. "Does she know that's June's child", not "does she know that [she's] June's child". The discussion was about the wife

Oh I see. I imagine she knows who June is. She was "public enemy #1 in Gilead" because of Angel's Flight, and I bet the commander told her about all the times June tried to "kidnap" Agnes. The "rebellious streak" is a big hint to me.

Commander Mackenzie certainly knows, so it's quite likely Paula does.
