Full spoilers follow forSeveranceseason 2 episode 10.
After 10 weeks of teases, never-ending fan theories, and shocking in-universe moments,Severanceseason 2has ended.
Confused about everything that just happened? Allow me to explain
And, boy oh boy, what a finale it was.
Is Gemma rescued by Mark in the Severance season 2 finale?
In short: yes!
Devon and Harmony convince Mark S to help them rescue Gemma
But, there’s a large lead-up to that.
So, strap in, folks, because this explanation is going to be a long one.
Not so fast, Mark S says.
Handheld camcorders still come in ahem handy in the Severance universe!
That includes the severed floor, so the innies, Mark S included, won’t exist anymore.
Cue Harmony Cobel’s intervention.
Oh, and once that’s done, Lumon will dispose of the innies.
Mark S becomes increasingly emotional as he speaks to his outie throughout episode 10’s first art
Next thing we know, Mark S is standing in the elevator leading to Lumon’s severed floor.
But Mark S doesn’t have time to take it all in as he’s quickly reunited with Helly.
Meanwhile, Dylan G is revealed to be alive.
Well, that’s new…
As I predicted, though, Dylan G can’t simply walk away.
Milchick meets him at the severed floor’s elevator with his outie’s response to his resignation.
Before their rescue mission can begin, though, an amusingly surreal sequence distracts them.
I’ve got to admit, I laughed out loud at this entire sequence
He follows her but she manages to evade him and temporarily lock him in it.
Well…
Who dies in Severance season 2 episode 10?
Don’t worry, Mark S, Gemma, and the rest of MDR survive.
So long, Mister Drummond
In fact, only one person dies in ‘Cold Harbor’ and that’s Mister Drummond.
His key card doesn’t grant him access to it, you see.
Drummond investigates and, realizing what Mark S is trying to do, tries to stop him.
“Where do you think you’re going, Mark S?"
A scuffle ensues and, after overpowering Mark S, Drummond starts strangling him to death.
He would’ve succeeded, too, if not for Lorne’s intervention.
A fight breaks out between Drummond and Lorne, which Lorne wins.
Don’t do it, Lorne!
Or so Mark S thinks.
Long story short: Mark accidentally kills him.
Does Mark choose Gemma or Helly in the Severance season 2 finale?
Hold on, Mark, aren’t you going to cross a severance barr- oh, never mind…
Above all others, this is the moment that’s going to divideSeverancefans.
Because Mark chooses Helly over Gemma.
Cecily refuses to initiate the door and runs away when Mark brandishes his gun.
Gemma and Mark, reunited at last – but not for long
How’s he going to get in now?
With Drummond’s blood, of course.
So, he uses some blood from his tie to gain entry to the Cold Harbor test room.
Oh, Mark…
There, he finds a terrified Gemma, who doesn’t recognize Mark because her 25th (!)
innie persona is active in this room.
Passing through the test room’s severance barrier, Gemma’s outie re-emerges.
Fly, you fools!
Cue a soul-stirring reunion between the couple that won’t leave a dry eye in the house.
Severancedoesn’t let us have happy things, though, so you know a gut-punch event is moments away.
And here comes the kicker.
What does Gemma find in the Cold Harbor test room?
Mark S convinces Ms Casey to leave, which she does and then turns back into Gemma.
However, when Gemma tries to get Mark S to follow her, he hesitates.
What is Project Cold Harbor, exactly?
Well, that’s not disturbing at all, Lumon
One of the sci-fi mystery-thriller’s most talked-about mysteries, Project Cold Harbor is finally solved in this episode.
Mauer instructs Gemma’s newest innie to take the crib apart with a screwdriver.
Jame Eagen, Lumon’s current CEO, also watches from his own monitoring room.
I swear if anything happens to this little fella, Lumon…
What are the goats used for in Severance’s season 2 finale?
It’s high time we found out, too.
Indeed, Lorne says as much after she meets Drummond in the secret room I mentioned earlier.
Justice for Emile!
Whatisa surprise, though, is what purpose the goats appear to play as part of their sacrifice.
Will we ever see one of Lumon’s goats get the chop?
Hopefully not, but never say never.
“What? Are you waiting for an end credits scene to play?"
Does Severance season 2’s final episode have a mid-credits or post credits scene?
There’s no mid- or post-credits sequence to stick around for.
But, if you’re only hanging around for an end credits stinger, you’ll be sorely disappointed.
Waiting for that official season 3 announcement like…
Has Apple announced Severance season 3 yet?
For one,Severancehas become more successful with each passing week.
For what it’s worth, the series' next entry is in the works.
Tell us when you’ll be back, Milchick!
In February, director/executive producerBen Stiller confirmed season 3’s scripts are currently being written.
Unfortunately, there’s not as much good news on the filming start date front.
Dichen Lachman, who plays Gemma/Ms.
What will become of Jame and Helly after this season’s finale?
Casey, exclusively told me that shedoesn’t know when principal photography will begin onSeveranceseason 3.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it’s sooner rather than later!
How does ‘Cold Harbor’ set up Severance season 3’s story?
Mark’s problems are only just beginning
We don’t know, but there are plenty of unanswered questions that’ll need, well, answering.
For starters: where have Mark S and Helly gone?
Then there’s the widerfalloutand implications of what happened in this episode.
Lumon should come down hard on Dylan G and C&M following their rebellion.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg.
Will Gemma seek out Devon and Ricken, and venture to enlist their help to rescue Mark?
What’s Harmony Cobel’s endgame?
What do the season 2 finale events mean for Jame in a leadership capacity?
Is Reghabi going to show up again and attempt to help Gemma reintegrate?
When will we see Irving and Burt again?
And what is the Grand Agendum that Kier Eagan’s animatronic mentions after Mark finishes Project Cold Harbor?
Those questions and many other mysteries need to be solved beforeSeverance’s end credits roll for the final time.
