Previous Offred (Spoiler Q)
So, I kind of missed this, but what really happened to the previous Offred? I know they said that she killed herself, and then that she "hanged" herself, and then at the end of the film it seems that the previous Offred was going out at night with the commander as well and Serena found out.
I started to think that maybe they were hinting that the previous Offred was killed in one of those hangings in front of everyone, or am I way off base? Or did they think that she was with the rebels and have her killed, or did they just send her to the colonies? (I haven't read the book yet, so sorry if this is really obvious in the book).
