Kids are educated in Gilead not to be noisy and to obey their Martha's. Obedience is key to that society. So the commanders take reading would help "make it like their family time" and give blessing. That helps explain why the plan works. Because at least something works. I am happy for Rita. And sad for Luke. Awful to see Serena bringing back June's old name and role in her life. Awful woman deserved worse treatment. She was on the path of getting "her daughter" through visitations and who knows what else eventually. I just hope the fate of June isn't as bad as it looks like it could be.
