Offred and the Commander walk into a hotel which Offred quickly recognizes as the same one Luke and she had used during the early days of their relationship. The hotel was now filled with high-ranking officials, foreign businessmen and promiscuously dressed women. Offred feels out of place, and pretends to be dumb, something that the Commander notices, instructing her to behave naturally or risk being discovered. Suddenly, across the room, Offred sees Moira. Dressed in a faded costume and smoking a cigarette, Moira is looking across the room until the two make eye contact. She signals to Offred to follow her to the washroom and departs without looking around. Offred, already unsteady in her high-heels, heads to the bathroom without saying a word, oblivious of any possible stares from the guests.
