Odette Johnson is a flashback character in The Handmaid's Tale. She was Moira's fiancee.
Before Gilead[]
Odette is the doctor who helped Moira with her pregnancy with Gavin. They later engage in a relationship.[1]
After the takeover[]
According to Moira, Odette was rounded up in one of the “dyke purges” and she was reclassified as an Unwoman to be sent to the Colonies.[2]
In the present[]
In Little America, Moira digs through binders filled with unidentified photos to look for her fiancee Odette. She finally finds the page confirming Odette's death showing she was killed before going to the Colonies. Moira puts a photo of herself with Odette at the memorial.[1] After the bombing of the newly-constructed Rachel and Leah Center (in season 2), several Handmaid deaths were confirmed, and their names were read in Little America shortly after. Odette's name was included at Moira's request. Moira could finally grieve after years of not receiving closure after the two were separated.
