since Nick was promoted to commander in season 3 story of maid In no time he was given a wife, because this is the custom of Gilead. Although we never again saw Eden, his wife, in his home life since the slaughter of him when he was a Guardian, we learned that he had married in his encounter with June at the end of Season 4, in which he wore a ring.
In the season 5 premiere, the series was launched Rose Blaine In a scene in which they communicated with Gilead’s own language, but which made it clear that they had a loving relationship and, above all, a very honest relationship, as they talked about June. “What was he supposed to do?”Rose asked, referring to the murder of Fred Waterford.
Nick has been working with Commander Lawrence for some time and now Tuello has offered him a job in Canada. He’s always used the privileges he has within the system to help June and the Resistance in some way, but we’ve never confirmed if he has May Day (the resistance organization we’ve seen for the first time) There’s a straight line to its grandeur in episode 5×03). In any case, if anyone finds out his secret history at any time, his only destiny will end at the Wall. So Rose knows that everything about her is a double-edged sword, although at first it seems like a positive affair.

Rose and Nick with Serena in ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ episode 5×03
What do we know about Rose Blaine?
Because Nick is one of the good guys, we’d like to think the best and trust that Rose is his ally and cause. However, in reality we know very little about it and there would never be too much caution in that totalitarian system.
For now, based on what Rose told Serena, we know that They met at official events in Washington And that after several meetings, three in his version, they decided to formalize their relationship, because as Nick said, he always liked to talk to her.
The other thing we know, thanks to Major Mackenzie (Hannah’s adoptive father), is that His father is High Commander Wharton“I hope her father’s status has nothing to do with Rose’s attraction. I’ll keep an eye on you,” he told Nick.
Agent of good or evil?
Theory
For now there are two options. The first is that as Nick, Rose also associates with May Day And thanks to that they met. This explains why he has been so honest with her from the start and why she feels so comfortable and safe plotting against Gilead. Thanks to Rose’s family status and Nick’s burgeoning career, they were able to choose to marry each other without the need for allotments from the state as is often the case. This choice offers benefits from a narrative point of view, as it would be a good connection point for The Resistance with characters working from Canada.
Another possibility, which should never be ruled out, is That rose is an eye, one of Gilead’s spies, If at any point one has suspected Nick’s activities and his association with June, having infiltrated his life with someone like Rose, a great man who doesn’t distrust him because he knows women. There is no power within its limits, it is a master plan. ,
The third option is that it was neither one thing nor another, just someone you trusted. A nice guy that June would love, as he confirms when he asks her out on the phone in 5×03, but doesn’t think Nick can do something so easily knowing what he knows about Gilead.
Time will tell which direction the balance goes, but we can be sure that Will be a key character in this seasonBecause it has the power to do much good or very bad, depending on how they have pulled it off.
