Severance
Warning!
Spoilers for Severance season 2 ahead!
Burt helped Irving escapeLumon’s pursuit inSeveranceseason 2, and their goodbye was devastating to watch.
However, my second time through, I noticed that Irving’s line here is quite significant.
Moreover, the parallels here demonstrate some surprising carryover fromInnie to Outiethat shouldn’t exist.
However, there may be a bit more to it than just that.

This has fed into a popularSeverancetheory.
In that moment, it seemed as if Innie and Outie Irv had bridged the gap between their consciousnesses.
Back inSeveranceseason 1,there seemed to be some signs that Irv had been reintegrated.

Irv’s final line inSeveranceseason 2 takes this further.
In that moment, it seemed as if Innie and Outie Irv had bridged the gap between their consciousnesses.
They felt more like the same person.
However, this might not have been because of any procedure.
There is no overlap.
However, we see throughout the two seasons ofSeverancethat this is not true.
Lumon is entirely aware of this and is trying to fix the problem.
Kier Eagan desired a pain-free world (fitting given his history in the ether industry).
Lumon wants its employees to feel nothing.
Whether it will succeed is still anyone’s guess.
