Sorry, I titled my other post 18-39 I meant 18-29....
Okay so in these chapters, the true colors of the commander is shown. At first it seemed like the commander had a little bit of sympathy for Offerd. He and Offred would secretly meet and they would play scrabble, he even brought her lotion. But we find out that he is showing Offred that he has power and he can use it anyway he wants, because he is not afraid to break a few rules here and there. The commander takes Offred out to an old hotel, he dresses her up as a wife, in the blue cloak. When he walked around the hotel, he walked around showing off Offred.
One very interesting thing happens when Offred was at the hotel. She spots Moira and she gets a chance to sit down and talk to her. Moira tells Offred about how she ended up where she is. She tells her how she went to a house where she had memorized the address from when she was at the red center. And how there was a network of people that help people escape, some them get caught and end up on the wall. Moira told Offred that she got caught and they sent her to the hotel because they saw no point in sending her back to the red center. It's sad that Offred never saw Moira again after that,
