‘Severance’: What You Need to Remember Before Watching Season 2

variety.com:

Ethan Shanfeld SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers for Season 1 of “Severance,” streaming on Apple TV+.

A recap is available upon request. “Severance” returns on Apple TV+ this Friday, but it’s been nearly three years since the first season of the sci-fi workplace thriller ended on a brutal cliffhanger.

So, before you head back into the office Jan. 17, here are some things you should remember from Season 1. If you’re looking to freshen up on just the finale episode, skip to the end. “Severance” follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott), a man who is grieving the loss of his wife Gemma outside of the office — and who is blissfully unaware he has a wife inside the office.

That’s because he works at the mysterious Lumon Industries and underwent an experimental and controversial “severance” procedure, essentially splitting himself into two different people: his innie and his outie.
