Severance Season 2 Premiere Recap

We’re alive! Severance is officially back, and so is the We Know Severance podcast here on RHAP. Every week, we recap and theorize about all the latest Lumon Industries mysteries. Make sure you’re subscribed at WeKnowSeverance.com, and send feedback into severancerhap [at] gmail [dot] com.

In this episode, the Macrodata Podcaster Division of RHAP gathers together to break down “Hello Ms. Cobel,” the season two premiere. How did Severance respond to MDR’s daring escape? How will they be punished? Will they be punished? All these questions get answers (and of course raise more questions) in the premiere.

Check back in a few days when the gang gets back together for the feedback and theories podcast.

Severance focuses on Mark Scout (Adam Scott), a widower who processes his grief by working for a shadowy company called Lumon. He’s part of a team that’s undergone “Severance,” a controversial procedure that separates a person’s work life and personal life with the flip of a brain-implanted switch. Mark Scout’s “innie” is Mark S., the Macrodata Refinement division’s generally chipper manager, who slowly becomes radicalized by the idea of escaping Lumon for the “outie” world. What does Lumon really want to use Severance for? Why are Mark and his colleagues typing numbers into computers all day, every day? And why are there so many goats? Find out more by listening to the GOAT Severance recap podcast, We Know Severance, hosted by Joshy W, Melly W, and Mandy R.
