“Severance” season 2is heating up going into this week’s episode “The After Hours.”
As the penultimate episode of the season, it’s got a lot riding on it.
Especially after last week’s episodedropped the biggest bombshellof the series so far.
Unsurprisingly, I also have a lot of questions going into these final two episodes.
Spoilers for “Severance” season 2 episodes 1-8 ahead
What is the Wintertide Fellowship?
That was an eyebrow-raiser at the time, but now we know more about what “Wintertide” is.
These two characters have some commonalities.
But we still don’t know what the fellowship actually is, what arcane ceremony accompanies induction, etc.
Will Ms. Cobel successfully integrate Mark?
But will she be successful?
And, just as importantly, is Ms. Cobel a friend or foe?
If it’s the latter, then maybe the enemy of my enemy isn’t my friend after all.
Will Mark find Gemma this episode?
After episode 7, we know a lot more about what’s happened to Gemma (Dichen Lachman).
We know she joined Lumon at least somewhat willingly.
But until then Lumon will thwart any and all attempts to get her back to the outside world.
So will Mark manage to find her this episode?

There are theories about this floating around.
But I think it’s foreshadowing, Helena vs. Helly R. fighting for Mark instead.
Why did Ms. Cobel develop severance?
We know Ms. Cobel developed severance and that Jame Eagan took credit for it.
But we still don’t know exactlywhyshe created the procedure.
Hopefully, we get an explanation this episode.
Perhaps a fun conversation topic for Ms. Cobel and Devon to discuss while the former fixes Mark?
Will we see Irving B. again?
Finally, the question that’s on everyone’s mind is Irving B. dead?
We know that we probably haven’t seen the last of John Turturro.
But Irving B. is, in theory, no more.
So will we see him ever return to the halls of Lumon?
Or was the funeral for Irving B. the last we saw of this beloved member of Macro Data Refinement?
My guess is we see Irving B. again, but not in this episode.
