"I wish you'd take them raw" From the first season his favorite breakfast was 3 raw eggs in milk. To me this echoes his disappointment in his daughter. Which is showed a lot more later. I do like how Mr Milchick stood up against his boss, but I don't see this as any kind of turning point for him. So a lot more seems to be explained, but I can't help but feel they aren't real answers. Two things still vex me. First of all the goats. I refuse to believe it was just some symbolic sacrifice since everything else in other departments had a point. I wonder if a goats death somehow affected something in Gemma? Also here is something I realized that wasn't answered. What is severance anyway? Unless I missed something then I see two possibilities. Either it is two different consciousnesses with no memory of each other or a single consciousness booting from two different memory hard drives each time there is a swap. Still so many darn questions.

I love that Helena getting Gemmas name wrong gets Outie Mark angry enough to start reintegration and getting Hellys name wrong gets Innie to snap at his Outie and choose himself at the end

My theory is that the goats were supposed to accomplish the opposite of what they're trying to do with Gemma. While with Gemma they're trying to make an innie completely devoid of the pain and trauma of the outie, with the goat people they're trying to make a severance so complete that they can traumatize the innie without it affecting the outie. This explains why there's so many of them, since they can make new innies for the same outie to continue testing, but can't make more outies other than hiring new people.

My theory is a little more far fetched. That they are implanting a severance chip in the same time they are killing the goat. As it quickly dies then some part of Gemma either dies or solidifies. Something along those lines. I get it from the fact they seem to be able to program and build personalities by refining. To be honest so much is still not explained. For all we know this whole Gemma thing could just be the stress test the system for an insane reason later.

It is still kind of stealing though. Don't you think?

N00B

The reason is already partially explained. Kier wanted to rid the world of pain. The severance procedure intends to do so, with Gemma acting as the prime test subject for this project.

Empathy update nerf to Ant, you hate to see it

So....what happen yo your mic stand?

No, because Devon gave her the baby, and Cobel left the baby in a safe place before she left the house. That’s not really stealing at all, bru.

Season three of severance is supposed to come out next year or possibly early 2027 and then season four is supposed to come out either the following year or something along those lines or they’re not sure

when they talk about "The Equator" being a building or a continent, Or perhaps a building so big it became a continent, I think that is an intentional allusion to the Lumon building. They don't know how big it is and since it's their entire world, it might as well be a continent. And I think the Goat sacrifice was just weird cult religion stuff while the cold harbor version of Gemma was an attempt to create an "empty vessel" of sorts to have it's soul guided to Kier's for something somehow related to reincarnation. I think season 3 will start with Mark and Helly hiding out in Lumon but evolve into a conversation around innie politics WHILE mark has re-integrated and becoming one with himself again... and there could be talks between outside people and innies to get to the bottom of what Lumon was doing before it was officially revealed to the public and maybe stories around the Senator pushing for it and potentially it could even end up being a law that Outie's who got severed are not allowed to re-integrate and legally required to give their Innie custody of the body for a set amount of time every week/month, Like parental rights in the raising of children. There are so many societal and philosophical and frankly dark implications of Severance that could be discussed and explored beyond working at Lumon.

The Crazy Stupid Podcast did some great analysis of Severance’s themes and world building. They’re definitely worth a listen!

They may have been running to hide somewhere or to rally their fellow innies for a hostile takeover of the severed floor.

Well ant there is actually a link between your digestion and brain, its called the gut-brain axis. its kind of like a weird brain extension in your gut and is where the whole "gut feeling" comes from, sometimes the gut brain processes information your head brain missed and you get a gut feeling or a sinking feeling in your gut. intestinal issues could also cause hormone imbalances in your actual brain because of that link so your IBS may cause some depressive episodes.

One ep ant talks about years of ibs, the next ep he talks about drinking energy drinks constantly. Then says his health is fine. Fascinating.

im assuming they're going to revolt with all the innies, take over the severed floor and never leave.
