Subjonctif avec "après que"Hi, I got this example in a KwizBot mail: Elles avaient dû repasser l'examen, après qu'elles aient échoué les trois premières fois! However, according to The Subjunctivisor, after "après que" indicatif should be used. In this case we are talking about a certain fact in the past. Thanks!

Is Le Futur Antérieur mandatory or context dependant after Après que?"I will watch TV with you after I finish my work" has an immediate, present tense meaning in English. Is the simple future (finirai) allowable here or is Le Futur Antérieur the only allowable tense after "quand," "lorsque," and "après que."
