The Testaments Episode 5 Ending Explained – Who is the father of Garth?
On the way home, Commander Mackenzie talks to Garth. He thanks him for improving security. Gilead is preparing for more attacks. They want to stop all rebels.
Mackenzie shares big news. Garth may become a commander soon. Garth is happy and thankful. He believes Mackenzie helped him. Mackenzie says Gilead needs young men like him. He also mentions Garth’s father. He says his father was also respected.

This raises questions. Who is Garth’s father? Maybe he is a new commander. Or someone we already know. There is a theory. Garth could be the son of Nick Blaine. Nick died in a plane explosion. People saw him as a hero. If this is true, things get complicated. Daisy may be Nicole. That means Garth and Daisy could be related.
Another idea is Serena’s son. But this seems less likely. Serena left Gilead. So her son may not rise easily in power. If Garth is Nick’s son, he may have grown up in Gilead. But there is still confusion. The timeline may not match. The story is still unclear. The show may follow the book. Or it may change things. So for now, this is just a theory.
At the end, Agnes feels a little hope. She learns that Garth may become a commander. This means she could marry him one day.
- What if someone else proposes first?
- What if her parents force her to say yes?
Agnes is stuck. She has feelings, but she cannot speak freely.
- Will she tell Garth the truth?
- Will she be brave enough?
Another big question remains:
- Does Garth love Agnes too?
- If he does, will he fight for her?
- Or will the rules of Gilead keep them apart?
For now, everything is uncertain. Their future is still unclear.
Will Aunt Lydia be removed from her post?
Commander Judd is becoming very important. He has a lot of power in Gilead. He looks polite and kind. But he may not be what he seems. He feels like a hidden villain. A man who pretends to be good. Some bad people are easy to spot. But Judd hides his true nature. He acts like a gentleman. But inside, he may be worse. He and his wife Penny look perfect. But their life may not be happy. There are signs of problems.
In Gilead, most powerful men do not respect women. They follow a system that treats women badly. Only a few men try to resist. Many of them fail or die. Men like Judd enjoy power. They control young women’s lives. This makes his character dark and dangerous.

Commander Judd is not happy. Aunt Lydia tells him something strict. She says the commanders must not get the girls drunk. Judd does not like this. He reminds Lydia that commanders are in charge.
Later, Judd talks to Aunt Vidala alone. He gives her an idea. He asks her to replace Aunt Lydia. He knows Vidala wants more power. He thinks she may betray Lydia. Vidala does not answer clearly. But she may agree later.
If Lydia loses her position, things will change. She has been secretly helping Mayday. She even paired Daisy and Agnes. This shows she supports the resistance. If she is removed, Mayday will suffer. Lydia may lose everything. She could be sent away alone. Or moved to a far-off school. Her future looks uncertain.
