This show is king of cliffhanger ending episodes. That definitely doesn't change in the second season.

You may have forgotten (many reactors do) that Ricken's book "The You You Are" was stolen by Ms. Cobel and she gave it to Milchek to check if there is any questionable stuff in it and he was in that conference room reading it and chuckling when the alarms went off, I think it was because Helly was trying to smuggle something out? Anyway, he dropped the book on the chair and ran out. So, the book being left there wasn't a psyop or anything. It was definitely a mistake. It's intriguing the Innies, which I think is the last thing Lumon wants, for them to start thinking about things outside of the Lumon handbook. Outside stuff would compromise their brainwashing. It's why there's only Keir related art and they have to take off any personal items that have non-Lumon branding, like Mark's watch, etc. By the way, when I say this stuff, this is stuff I realized at the time I watched this. Not giving away future stuff. When I recognize stuff that will be fleshed out more later, I don't mention those, but I will remind you of them (if I remember) like about Ricken's book that happened an episode ago or so. Mark's grieving always makes me sad. He's consumed, mostly, with his deceased wife 'cause even though it's been 2 years, he hasn't worked through it and decided to sever in lieu of sticking with therapy. Oddly enough, Innie Mark sculpted a tree the next day in his wellness session. Also, a thing I noticed was the candle Ms. Casey lit in the session was the same one Cobel stole from Mark's basement that was in a box that said Gemma's Crafts, or something like that. It has a scent, because Cobel sniffed it before she took it. In a show this dense, different people notice different things and people always point out things to me that I wasn't focused on at the time, like you noticing the town being called Keir. Not creepy at all. 😁

Oh right I did forget that it was accidentally left behind. Surprised they didn't remember to go get it. I'm so hoping this book basically becomes their guide to escaping this hell haha.

Now I remember, it was when Helly broke the window on the stairwell door and stuck the message out to try to get her outie to see. Milchek ran out for that. Then he had to tend to her wound and was with Helly that whole time in the Break Room, for about a full day (or more). So, he totally forgot all about it. Much like a lot of us. 😅

I didn't realize the town was called Kier until halfway through season 2. Lol

Thadman

Ha! Same.

That actress did a great job. Hope she got nominated.
