Season 2 of Severance just ended. Here's everything mysterious and important we've learned

Warning: This review of Severance's Season 2 finale goes full spoiler. If you haven't watched it yet, and want to, stop here. But come back later. It'll be more fun than a waffle party.

Usually, on a work day, our innie would write about news. Politics, global events and the such. But, like so many of you, our outie watched the Severance Season 2 finale last night, and the episode was so powerful that it infiltrated some deep, subconscious plane within our mind.

All this to say, like the members of our beloved MDR team, our innie is rebelling, and now the only news that matters today is whatever-in-the-name-of-Kier we all just witnessed. And we're here to break it down for you. As Mark S. would say, "the work is mysterious and important."

A global phenomenon, the dark and dystopian Severance has broken records as the most-watched series on Apple TV+. Last night, the highly anticipated finale to the second season, called "Cold Harbor," dropped at 9 p.m. ET.

The Emmy-winning series follows Mark Scout (known as Mark S. on the severed floor, and played by Adam Scott) as he leads a team at Lumon Industries, where the employees have undergone what they call a severance procedure. The severing surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives, or their innies and outies.

Their inherently innocent innies work on seemingly mundane projects kept secret even from them at the cult-like Lumon, which was founded by the god-like Kier Eagen. Meanwhile, their flawed outies remain unaware of what goes on during their nine-to-fives. 

The show has touched a nerve with viewers who appreciate its take on compartmentalization, work-life balance, ethics, bodily autonomy and identity. 

For many, part of the show's irresistible draw is trying to piece together its meaning and mysteries (and there are many). Theories and conspiracies abound on TikTok and in online reviews, ranging from multiple timelines to innie/outie pregnancies to the real meaning of the goats.

And last night, we finally got (some) answers.

Here's what we now know about the inner workings of Lumon Industries.

Warning: Seriously, folks. Spoilers. Don't say we didn't warn you.

The biggest reveal came from Harmony Cobel, played by Patricia Arquette, when she finally tells innie Mark S. the meaning of the data he's been refining for two years. The numbers were pieces of consciousness for his outie's wife, Gemma (Dichen Lachman).

"The building blocks of her mind," Cobel explains.

Essentially, Mark S. has been creating multiple innies for his outie's dead wife on the testing floor. Yep. Twisted.
