I can get the they were gonna kill Cobel theories. I think it is more likely they were gonna make her a perma-innie like Miss Casey.
I’m all in on the cloning/raise from the dead theories. I also think the “board” is all the Egans consciousness and that’s part of what MDR is sorting, putting the right data to the right Egan for them to come back once they bodies.
i've had similar thoughts that the Board isn't quite human. i joked with my partner that it'd be funny if it was something akin to the Quintessons from G1 Transformers, lol (but that's definitely not gonna be the case)
Catching up on this amazing thread. I don't think the board is real and that Natalie is behind everything and there's no way Helly is severed on the severed floor. I kind of suspected the plot with Dylan's wife was supposed to get Dylan to comply more with Lumon for the sake of his outie's family, but there's totally something there with Dylan's wife loving Dylan's innie more. Also echoing the "he dumb" line love. I was watching with my friends and we all burst out laughing.
I did not get the vibe she “loved” his innie more at all- lol what?? If anything, she seemed disconcerted in that scene about him and his well-being.
Why would she have tried to hang herself if she was never severed? Unless you mean she’s not severed after the events of season 1
I don't think she does yet but if those scenes keep happening then I'm certain that they will explore the difference in romantic partners through them. I think the outcome of that would then be that she would feel more towards the 'innie' due to having qualities that the 'outie' Dylan does not.
The scene of Dylan's wife having to almost parent him before she left for work really sealed in the fact that I think we are getting the she loves the innie version more than the outie version. There was also this quick raising of the voice the outie version did when they first talked on the phone that goes with that.
The only other reason I can think of that they circle back to them for that scene is either to the lay the groundwork for my above thought or because they wanted to show that she is a cop. Which I think Devin said at some point that they can't trust the cops because of Lumon.
I so thoroughly loved that there was just a goat man in all of those scenes and it was never questioned lol
I want to know what the Mammalians Nurturable outies think about their work as innies. Surely they either exit the building either filthy and smelly or freshly showered and damp? Possibly sore? I would have so many questions lol
part of me wondered if there's like a separate shower or something for them to use. surely there's some Kier Eagan quote about cleanliness being important
This is top 3 best dramas on TV right now, if not the best. It's Severance, White Lotus, and Shogun. Those three are in a league of their own.
Love the other 2 but it’s definitely better than white lotus and I’d probably put it above shogun as well especially if they are making more seasons of shogun.
