The Handmaid's Tale's second season finale left off on a frustrating cliffhanger, once June decided not to flee Gilead, despite all the Marthas teaming up to provide her and the baby safe passage out.

《使女的故事》第二季的大結局給觀衆留下了一個令人沮喪的懸念，儘管所有的Marthas都齊心協力爲她和孩子提供安全之路，瓊決定不逃離基列。

So, where does that leave us for Season 3? Slowly but surely, details about the Hulu series' newest season are starting to trickle in.

那麼，第三季的劇情將會如何發展呢？雖然進展緩慢，但可以肯定的是，這部Hulu的劇最新一季的細節已經開始慢慢浮出水面。

It will premiere later than usual. The Handmaid's Tale has usually dropped in April, but this season the show will premiere on Wednesday, June 5.

它開播時間將比以往晚。《使女的故事》通常在4月播出，但這一季將會在6月5日週三首播。

Though it's later than usual, Hulu will drop the first three episodes at once before switching to a weekly rollout.

雖然開播比以往晚，但Hulu將會一次性放出前三集，然後再切換到周播模式。

Nick and Fred's power struggle has only begun. Now that Nick officially stood up to Fred to help Offred escape, there are some pretty harsh truths out in the open between these men.

尼克和弗雷德的權力鬥爭纔剛剛開始。由於尼克正式站出來反抗弗雷德，幫助奧弗雷德逃跑，兩人之間的那些相當殘酷的事實會被公之於衆。

However, turning Nick over isn't exactly an easy thing to do, given all the dirty secrets he knows about Fred and his dealings (not to mention who knows how many other people thanks to his time as an Eye), so their tug-of-war will continue well into Season 3.

然而，搞掉尼克並不容易，因爲他知道弗雷德和他的交易的所有骯髒的祕密(更不用說多虧了他做“眼睛”的那段時間，誰知道他還知道多少人的呢)，所以他們的拉鋸戰將會持續到第三季。

Commander Lawrence (Bradley Whitford) will be back. Showrunner Bruce Miller confirmed that Bradley Whitford has signed on for Season 3 to continue his role of Commander Lawrence, so we'll eventually get some answers about his role within Gilead and within the resistance that helped the Handmaids escape.

指揮官勞倫斯(布萊德利·惠特福德飾)將會迴歸。該劇製片人布魯斯·米勒證實布萊德利·惠特福德已經簽約第三季繼續扮演指揮官勞倫斯，所以我們最終會得到一些關於他在基列以及幫助使女們逃跑的抵抗組織中所扮演的角色的答案。

Emily and Nicole's story isn't over yet. If you were worried Emily would escape with baby Nicole, never to be seen or heard from again, never fear.

艾米麗和妮可的故事還沒有結束。如果你擔心艾米麗會帶着寶寶妮可逃走，從此消失不見、杳無音信，不用害怕。

Emily and Nicole will play a very large role in Season 3, since basically everyone will be trying to track down that baby when the story returns.

Emily和Nicole將會在第三季中有很重的戲份，因爲基本上每個人都想在第三季迴歸時找到這個寶寶。
