Severance Season 1 Recap
Before diving into Season 2, let’s quickly recap what happened in Season 1. The series introduced us to Mark Scout (played by Adam Scott), who opts for the severance procedure, which surgically divides a person’s work memories from their personal life. Mark’s goal was to escape the painful memories of his wife’s death. However, things took a twist when a new employee, Helly Riggs (played by Britt Lower), joined the team at Lumon Industries and began questioning the ethics of the severance process. As the season unfolded, Mark and his colleagues uncovered a web of secrets about Lumon and their own personal lives, culminating in a shocking cliffhanger that sets the stage for Season 2.
What to Expect in Severance Season 2
Severance Season 2 picks up right after the intense Season 1 finale, where Mark, Helly, Dylan, and Irving discovered explosive truths about their lives beyond Lumon. In Season 2, the characters continue their attempts to blow the whistle on the unethical severance procedure while grappling with their inner consciousnesses and what their lives mean outside of the office walls.
Fans can expect more shocking twists, intricate plot lines, and a deeper exploration into the nature of the severance process, all while the employees struggle to reclaim their autonomy.
