Can you go “head to head” with someone who has more power than you? I think Bernard is going to make him choose between the Silo and his wife, and being the righteous man that he is, Common-I mean Sims-won’t punk out like Bernard did; he’s going to side with his wife!

6:40 “Patty” 😂

Yeah. In general a smooch is not a good sign.

Thank you for doing what you do

Didn't buy the smooch! Comrades? Sure... But this may have just signalled the death of one of them, or ensured that they both end up on the wall. Head v Heart, dudes! Expected it but was hoping against hope they wouldn't! (grumbles)

As someone who found solo season 1 after it all premiered and binged it in about a 2 days. This season feels like it’s dragging so much. I wish people would go back to bingeable seasons

1st

I can't get into the food is scarce theory because there are too many times when food is an afterthought. Mrs. Selvig makes cookies for Mark (and clearly made several attempts at them, apparently with no regard for how large a quantity of ingredients she's using). If I remember correctly, when Mark brings Petey to his house to hide, they're sharing a pizza and not commenting on it in any way that would make me think it's out of the ordinary. Also, as referenced in this video, Mark took Alexa to dinner at least twice. I think Lumon rations snacks because they're heavily into self-discipline, and they heavily influence the culture of the whole town. There is a weird vibe around food in Kier, but I don't think it's due to scarcity.

How can Irvig now about the test floor elevator door?

As someone who does middle management type work I hate them but relate. They could be way more compassionate in their jobs, but I get the struggle of herding cats.

Am I live stock?

Funny he mentioned Kellogg. The founder was into eugenics. Mr. Kellogg was not a good guy.

Yall have to enjoy every Severance TH-cam video equally

Did we ever find out who was in the car in the parking lot at the diner after Pete gave Mark the card? I wonder if that was Irv's outie spying.

I just moved and literally just bought a new TV, Internet connection, and streaming package just to watch this. Severance is the best.

0:58 I think she’s recalling memories from her past, before she was brought to the silo.

Watching this in December 2024, laughing at "October 2023".

The imgur link to the MDR Orientation Handbook in the description doesn't appear to be working.

So, just stumbled across your channel and just re-watched season 1 in anticipation for season 2. A couple of things : 1. I really like the idea that MANY more people in the show are severed than one would think without any context. That makes a lot of sense. 2. My personal theory is that "The You You Are" was written with a VERY specific audience in mind. Innies. That's why it's so simplistic in it's pronouncements and why the MDR team is so taken by it. 3. I don't think there's anything strange about Devon and Ricken together. I've lived too long and know too many "odd couples" to say that doesn't ring true. 4. Completely unrelated, but something that sticks in my head. What is up with snow removal on Lumen properties? All of the overhead shots of both the campus and the neighborhood where Mark/Cobel live have PERFECT snow removal with no residue of salt or any piles of snow. But then you go to the town scenes and it looks like a normal winter snow street scene with pockets of snow here and there still on the street, exactly what you would expect.

I also think some of Helly's fiery sense of outrage includes class rage & privilege. Because she's so wealthy IRL and was no doubt raised in wealth.

Quick theory… in a previous goat theory video, it was mentioned that the goats were possibly involved in cloning. What if that young new MDR worker is Miss Casey cloned??

I read sonewhere, someone with the idea that the “Who Is Alive?” Light is a way to bypass the code detection, because Mark is burning the message on his sight temporarily. I think thats it. He is asking inne Mark to confirm who was he saying was alive.

Ohhh Helly hitting Gemma with the car is a great theory because it will create such a conflict later in the story, since Helly and Mark fall in love as innies but outtie Mark grieves his beloved wife heavily. When those 2 worlds colide....sheeeet.

Dylan is the Surgeon 9:53

Dylan is the surgeon in the first episode so I like how his intelligence plays a part with the last episode. He is valued at the company they need him

Nautilus, I have a question that you may be able to help me with. If the whole town is severed, where do their outie versions live? Also, along that same line, if the senator's wife was severed for childbirth, how would that work? I mean I get that it would be convenient to avoid the pain of childbirth, but up until now we have seen that the process involve going into a special elevator and going down to a special area. Although, we did see the overtime process, it seemed to be more of an experimental thing. Would she have been severed just for a few hours during birth and then flip the switch back to normal and that's it? Never flip that switch again until she faces another unpleasant task of some kind, like another birth. That seems like something worth exploring.

I mean I just watched the show yesterday and it was pretty clear to me that everything Ms Casey reads is just a flat out lie. Everything she says about Mark’s outie? Like “your outie brightens others days” yet all we see is him destroy his relationships with people

Hey! After season 2 starts, would it be possible to get a "Severance season 1 theories to fall asleep to" compilation video??

I genuinely have watched all the Severance videos without subscribing since about a month ago. This trailer dropped and I forgot the name of the channel completely and it has taken NINE DAYS to show up in my recommended. I've subscribed. I've liked. I'm ready.

BUTT! 😂

Perfect analysis

My penus is really hard for season 2.

i noticed that the neighborhood where mark lives is named baird

I'm really hoping Helly's outie turns out to be a good guy. Like, she agreed to severance with an ulterior motive, planning to take the company down, and just had to be severed to achieve her goal for some reason. And she's only mean to her innie, refusing her requests, because if her innie quit, it would defeat her plan. Just hoping.

When Helly said "We're not scared of anyone" did she mean the innies?! I mean even when she addressing the crowd she always said we are suffering, we're not happy etc. Is that Innie Helly telling Cobell they ain't scared?!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️so excited

So while watching Severance for the eighth time in a row, LOL. I noticed something new to think about. A lot of people wonder how Ricken and Devin came into the money that they have because of their really nice large house. But when he goes to the birthing retreat, he specifically says they have an affordably sized cabin. So that leads me to believe that their home might have been inherited somehow. So the thread of pulling on who either of their parents could be would be of something of note. Either Ricken or even more interesting if it were Devin and Mark's parents that someone of note. K bye.

According to the books - the area around the silo field is kept desolate by the cloud of nanites Silo 1 keeps releasing to ensure the illusion of a wasteland is maintained.

Are the groups of numbers going into the bins always the same quantity of numbers? If so, these could be SSNs or equvalent, and which bin an ID number goes into determines their fate.

Crest toothpaste. I remember when I was a kid my hard-core Christian Grandma said very matter of factly, "you know that Procter and Gamble are satanic, it's in their logo but Kraft prayed to God and the company was blessed". Old school insanity.

I gotta go rewatch Barton Fink immediately after this video

8:07 it happens before not after they fix the generator you even have the wrong clip. When they Turned off the power the Display shows green pretty flowers right before it goes dark but no one in the series ever mentions it

I believe the town is full of severed people except those like Ms Corbel but I do believe she has a connection to the Eagans given her shrine and loyalty to the company. I think Mark caused the accident that killed his wife which is why he is so devastated and drinks so much. I do think Ricken is an Eagan or used to be severed. His name sounds like a play on Rick N and his friends seem like they are severed. Devon seems to be the only one not severed and I have a feeling she is undercover or knows something we haven't been told yet. Those baby goats are most likely not really goats just like there are no such things as scary numbers. And the teeth wall seems like a wall of severed people.

I am pretty late to the party but i have uncanny Valley effect with the guy. It feel like someone trying to human but not quite getting it right

Rickon and Gerhardt look very similar. I wonder if clones are grown at Lumon, and the chips can be implanted, providing a sort of eternal life.

I'm getting the feeling that the whole show is a parody of Christian mythology. So if Keir Eagan is God, creating Lumon, and his family are the angels, then Helly is Lucifer, cast out of heaven as a means of proving the righteousness of God's plan. That makes Ricken the Christ figure, whose nuggets of wisdom serve the same function as Jesus's teaches, amounting to, as Neal Stephenson once put it, a contract renegotiation with God. So him being scion from the Eagan family would feed into that theory. Of course, these days, everyone's posting theories on the net, so keen writers account for it. JK Rowling had people constantly theorizing between books. So she made sure to withhold a key piece of information until the book in which she would reveal her secrets, so people didn't have the time between books to put the pieces together. That's a rock-solid method.

Im guessing that Reghabi will implant her own type of control chip into Graners body

Eloise could be the boy in white, the crusty kids are the monsters . And who the hec is the man in yello

Your voice is really cool, btw. I appreciate that its not AI!!!
