Jennifer Maas TV Business Writer SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers for Season 2, Episode 8 of “Severance,” now streaming on Apple TV+.

Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette), the former manager of the Severed Floor, has been acting like she’s more important to Lumon than she gets credit for since the beginning of “Severance” — and in Episode 8 of Season 2, she justifies it.

In this installment, titled “Sweet Vitriol,” Harmony appears for the first time on screen since she drove off at the end of Episode 2, leaving Mark (Adam Scott) to wonder what she knows about him, Gemma/Ms.

Casey (Dichen Lachman) and Lumon’s overall mission. When she shows up again, she’s returned to the impoverished, tiny hometown where she grew up to ask for help from her childhood friend Hampton (James Le Gros) in getting back into the home where her mother died, since she’s on bad terms with her aunt Sissy Cobel (played by Jane Alexander).
