In the TV series
Season One
"Offred"
Dolores is introduced alongside Brianna (Oferic) in a local supermarket, where they are shopping along with June, Emily, and several other Handmaids, Marthas, and Econowives. She and Brianna both offer June advice on her new posting, with Dolores commenting that June will likely be able to get extra groceries for her household since her Commander is "really high up" and "in the news." Upon receiving stares from her fellow Handmaids, she quickly swears that she hasn't read any news.
"Night"
Dolores is present at Janine's attempted stoning (where she comments that she hates participating in stonings), and is one of the first Handmaids (after June and Alma) to throw down her stone and refuse to execute Janine. Aunt Lydia sends all of the Handmaids home with the promise of future consequences for their defiance.
Season Two
"After"
Dolores survives Lillie's attack on the new Rachel and Leah Center, and is later shopping in a marketplace with her fellow Handmaids.
