When we first meet, Moira, she stands as an example of the resistance. She makes two escape attempts, and the second is successful. Offred doesn't see Moira for a long time after her escape, but when she does, Moira is a shadow of her former self. Since her capture, Moira has been forced into prostitution.... she is broken and resigned.
