\n\tSPOILER ALERT:\u00a0<\/strong>This story contains spoilers for \u201cSecateurs,\u201d the Season 1 finale of \u201cThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale\u201d sequel series, \u201cThe Testaments<\/a>,\u201d now streaming on Hulu.<\/p>\n

\n\tHulu\u2019s \u201cThe Testaments\u201d ended its first season with many upsetting and shocking moments<\/a> \u2014 nothing less than fans would expect from a sequel to \u201cThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale.\u201d But amid the darkness, there was one particular scene full of light and love: a kiss between Agnes (Chase Infiniti<\/a>) and her best friend Becka (Mattea Conforti).<\/p>\n

\n\tBut what this act meant between the two is up for interpretation, as the kiss was shared when Agnes was comforting Becka in the moments before Becka\u2019s wedding to Agnes\u2019 crush, Garth (Brad Alexander). And though Becka has expressed her romantic feelings for her best friend in multiple explicit ways now, Agnes has not acknowledged them and continues instead to focus on supporting Becka through a deeply difficult situation for both of them.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI wouldn\u2019t say Agnes is necessarily ignoring [Becka\u2019s feelings],\u201d \u201cThe Testaments\u201d star Infiniti tells Variety. \u201cI think Agnes really just doesn\u2019t understand what it looks like. She knows that a \u2018gender traitor\u2019 in Gilead is bad, but just like how nobody in Gilead teaches these girls anything, she doesn\u2019t really know what that means. I think her interactions with Becka and the emotions that Becka is feeling for Agnes, I think Agnes just views it as Becka loves her, just like Agnes loves her. And whether or not it\u2019s in the same way, she just knows that that\u2019s her person in life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAgnes had been deeply hurt when it was determined by the Aunts that Becka was to marry Guardian-turned-Commander Garth and Agnes would instead marry the much older Commander Weston (Reed Diamond). But once Becka\u2019s fate was put into question after she killed her sexual predator father Dr. Grove (Randal Edwards), Agnes sprung into action to get Garth to go through with the wedding to Becka to save her from potential ruin.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe can all see that Becka\u2019s entire world has changed so drastically and so quickly in such a short amount of time, and everything that she has known and loved has really just flipped on itself, and is so different now,\u201d Conforti says. \u201cWe see her in such a lonely physical state at the end of Season 1. So it really makes me wonder, is she going to develop her relationship with Garth? I want her to be able to have more honest conversations about who she is and her identity, like she did with Daisy previously, in Episode 5.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBecka had chosen Garth out of her potential suitors proposed to her parents by the Aunts, determining he was the safest possible option. But Becka had confessed to her friends she did not want to get married or have children at all, and instead liked to daydream about running away from Gilead. Now, she is in the marriage with Garth, but doesn\u2019t realize she is in the best possible situation at this point, as Garth is a rebel operative for the Mayday resistance in Canada.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s quite complicated, the relationship that she has with him, especially because she doesn\u2019t know that Garth is a part of Mayday,\u201d Conforti says. \u201cShe doesn\u2019t know that she could really find some support within her own hesitations about Gilead within Garth. But I think the reason why she is so much more attracted to the option of choosing Garth over a different commander is that he\u2019s willing to relocate so that she can be close to her friends and he\u2019s willing to support her in that way and really give her the future that she actually wants, which is not being a wife and not becoming a mother.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tConforti adds: \u201cShe can kind of understand, oh, there\u2019s this partnership here; we can have a mutual sense of trust and understanding. She also knows that Agnes is in love with him, so I think in some capacity being involved in their relationship is allowing her to remain close to Agnes, too. But she\u2019s willing to marry Garth because there\u2019s no expectations of anything romantic or of her being a wife or a mother in any way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn saving Becka, Agnes sacrificed herself by pulling strings with her own fianc\u00e9. She told Commander Weston about how Becka\u2019s father molested her, revealing that Becka killed him to protect Agnes. It worked, in that Weston saved Becka from the Eyes and facilitated her marriage to Garth. But the confession that Agnes had been defiled by Dr. Grove led to Commander Weston breaking off their engagement<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI think that she\u2019s made peace with the fact that her life will not look how she originally planned it to be,\u201d Infiniti says. \u201cIn the scene where you see all of the girls find out that Dr. Grove has passed away, as they said, even though Agnes knows what the truth is \u2014 it\u2019s moments like that, and moments with Weston, where she is utilizing the last bit of her power. Or she realizes that the system is never going to work for her in that way. That\u2019s when she starts to do the things like begging Garth to marry Becka, because she knows that that will save Becka. And she can also be a protector, in a way, because she knows that if Garth is there, Becka is safe, and she can also be close to the two of them and know that they\u2019re both safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tNow, Agnes is back at Aunt Lydia\u2019s (Ann Dowd) wife school, marking the first time a \u201cgreen\u201d plum has ever come back after being engaged and so close to the altar.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI don\u2019t think that she has really any idea of what to expect, because this is the first time that this has happened,\u201d Infiniti says. \u201cAgnes is the first plum to go back to school, and so she knows that her life is not going to look at all like how she planned it to be, or at all like any of her friends. It\u2019s something that she needs to adjust to. But she has her friends. She has Daisy [Lucy Halliday], she has Shu [Rowan Blanchard], who are there too to walk that line with her.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SPOILER ALERT:\u00a0This story contains spoilers for \u201cSecateurs,\u201d the Season 1 finale of \u201cThe Handmaid\u2019s Tale\u201d sequel series, \u201cThe…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":828602,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[30],"tags":[131495,171,242648,340173,217913,173,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-828601","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-chase-infiniti","tag-entertainment","tag-just-watched","tag-matte-conforti","tag-the-testaments","tag-tv","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116654330055880013","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/828601","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=828601"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/828601\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/828602"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=828601"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=828601"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=828601"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
