But if you thought this finale would neatly tie upallthe loose threads, well … have youseenthis show?
With new questions now swirling and plenty left unresolved, “Severance” remains as mind-bending as ever.
The work is mysterious and important and I wouldnt have it any other way.
Warning: Massive spoilers ahead!
What follows is a pretty funny sequence of the two Marks speaking to each other through a video recorder.
But it’s not long before they devolve into wariness and mistrust.
Neither wants to back down.
Ultimately, Ms. Cobel delivers some harsh truths.
First, the Macrodata Refinement numbers are related to Gemma.
They are “the building blocks of her mind,” Ms. Cobel explains.
“Every file you completed is a new consciousness for her a new innie.”
Second, when Cold Harbor is finished, Innie Mark and Helly won’t get a honeymoon ending.
As Ms. Cobel brutally states, Helly is an Eagan and all innies are disposable.
As Mark clusters numbers, he fills in Helly on what Cobel said.
Mark reaches 100% on Cold Harbor, which prompts a celebration to break out.
As with all Lumon events, it’s super weird.
Milchick does a comedy routine with the figure of Keir, then a marching band arrives.
Meanwhile, Dylan returns to Lumon after tendering his resignation letter and learns his outie has written him back.
I would, too, except that I can see Gretchen is sporting a black eye.
Outie Dylan, you did not!
Mark madly runs through the halls in a scene echoing the premiere.
He finally finds the door, but his badge won’t work, so he begins banging on it.
They are engaging in some kind of ritual to sacrifice an adorable little goat.
Drummond emerges and starts beating up Mark.
Turns out, Lorne is attached to her goat children.
He needs Drummond to find Gemma.
Oh, well, don’t need to kill him after all.
They find the emergency exit and Mark pushes Gemma out.
He doesn’t go through the door, though.
As Gemma screams for him to join her, he turns to see Helly.
Innie Mark has to make a choice and he chooses his innie love.
The last thing we see is Mark and Helly, hand in hand, running down the hall.
But “Cold Harbor” also left many questions unanswered and asked new ones.
Here’s what we’re hoping to find out in “Severance” season 3:
Where is Irving?
Last we saw Irving, Burt had sent him off on a train to a destination unknown.
It’s unclear if we’ll ever see him again (I really hope we do).
What is the ultimate goal of the MDR project?
How will Mark and Helly stay together?
Milchick or anyone else can physically take either off the severed floor.
Is reintegration actually possible?
Will Miss Huang return?
Like Irving, we may never see Miss Huang again, but I hope we do.
What other events are carried out by Choreography and Merriment?
That marching band’s performance wastight.
