On April 22nd, Chase Infinity, the 25-year-old star playing Agnes in Who Lose the Testaments, just opened up about Episode 5's big event AA, twisted take on prom called the ball at Aunt Lydia's School in Gilead. Unlike regular high school dances, this one's no fun party. It's where girls freshen to womanhood get paired off with much older commanders for. Marriage Infinity pulled from her own memories of watching the handmaid's tale back in high school at age 17 when it blew up her whole school. The ball kicks off with a hypnotic group dance that looks like a blooming flower from above, shot in that classic overhead style. No teen boys are pot music here, just formal waltzes starting with father-daughter pairs, then suitors stepping in like something from Old England. Infinity, who studied musical theater in Chicago, loved rehearsing it despite the tight schedule of just one five-hour group session. Agnes feels the pressure but gets a thrill dancing with her crush, a young guardian secretly tied to the resistance. Meanwhile,

her best friend Becca deals with her own harbric, hiding feelings for Agnes and reeling from family secrets like an assault by her dad. Their bond strains showing how Gilead tears at teen friendships. Infinity says the cast kept things light on set, leaning on each other through the heavy themes, which helped everyone stay grounded. She still can't believe her quick rise, especially touring with her co-stars. As the season hits its midpoint, these girls start finding their voices and building strength through community, pushing back against Gilead's grip in. Ways that hit harder now than ever. That wraps entertainment in celebrity news today. Brought to you with AI.
