yeah I know Nick was like many characters in between a tough rock and a hard place. but he’s defo dead. think of it Joseph had to plant the bomb and then get out of the plane before its set off and Joseph the Bradly Whitford character sadly like a captain who has to go down with the ship, clearly couldn’t go on the plane and try to leave without giving the entire plot away. And Nick clearly didn’t know about the plot and Joseph clearly didn’t want to take the risk to expose the plot. That’s why he and June had that stare, he places his hand above his heart signaling “yep its come down to this and don’t worry I’ll sacrifice myself to achieve this”.

Its rather rather sad actually because if you think about it Nick and Joseph HELPED ALOT in trying to bring Gilead down, both have A LOT of remorse for the extreme carnage they played a part in bringing and both paid dearly for it as Nick truly does love June and wants to be with his child and hates how others have died, and Joseph who truly loved his wife who killed herself over the theocratic fascist dictatorship he helped set up and couldn’t take anymore the strain it was having on her mental health. And I don’t believe in punitive/revenge punishments/death penalties etc but Serena and Lydia got off EASY compared to Nick and Joseph and I think what really punches me in the gut the most is how Hannah is still not reunited with June AFTER ALL THAT LIBERATION which I find is very cruel to do to the audience given this has been a six year plus tv series and we the audience have been wanting at the very least those two reunited. That is something that still bothers me and its why I’ll never rewatch this series and will warn people “enter at your own risk” when watching this series.
