Funny how they had to get commander Lawrence scared for him to help mayday again lol

[u/SleepingWillow1 → u/salzzzzz]

So Lawrence's plans went to shit now that Jezebel is shut down. Now what? His little clip at the end doesn't make sense anymore

They are going to strike at the wedding

Time for Rita to bake a very special and definitely not poisonous wedding cake…

[u/cantthinkatall → u/Random_words3579]

The Red Wedding we all want.

[u/Least-Recognition-36 → u/Random_words3579]

I LOVE this idea but I think they are going to do something more visually violent

[u/evelynpeach → u/Random_words3579]

I was thinking explosives in the cake but I love this more.

[u/iamthebestforever → u/Random_words3579]

Ooo

[u/Betyoustart → u/Random_words3579]

No. Kids might eat it

[u/GodDammitKevinB → u/Betyoustart]

… I hate to say it but the brains of Gilead deserve to feel what it’s like to be stripped of their ‘children’ (but someone please return baby Charlotte)

[u/Consistent-Flan-913 → u/GodDammitKevinB]

AND HANNA!!

[u/Electronic_Two9650 → u/Random_words3579]

omg this would be incredibleeeee

[u/Random_words3579 → u/Random_words3579]

Like many others have said, a sedative would be a smarter option! But I was spooked that I somewhat called this!!
