      @@BrainPilotI think the bigger focus from the Dylan subplot is that to innie Dylan, he’s so amazed he has a wife, he is brimming with visible gratitude. But outie Dylan has lived experiences with his wife, and things may have been up and down. We have to remember that her working nights meant she probably needed to get a babysitter (unless it was school day) and miss sleep hours to go and do that. Outie Dylan is not brimming with gratitude. Maybe there will be a plot going forward where the wife conveys that she wishes she could have the innie version and this will cause greater tension there

    The episode’s name will be “Woe’s Hollow”. Based on this title, we might see how Casey “died” and how Mark experienced the sorrow that led him to undergo the severance procedure. Given how much this show like binaries, this episode might be an interplay between Mark’s severance and reintegration (past and present).
    How Mark will enter the company as a reintegrated person, will probably be in episode 5 which is called “Trojan’s Horse” (which was the way that Greeks sneaked into their enemy’s field, hidden inside a giant horse, during Troy War).

      Becoming a "different person" would require a different brain, body and soul (as far as something alike even exists).

      So wrong! Your experiences are what make you who you are. There is an undeniable physical make to you. But have you met identical twins? They are in theory identical copies of one another. Are they the same person? No. Because every trip or fall, every time they had to wait for attention, every song they heard, of movie they watched went into making them who they are. And yes you are correct. The you you are today is not the you you are tomorrow. I have experienced unspeakable tragedies throughout my life, and it is quite evident to me and my ex partner for instance, that experiencing those tragedies changed me in some ways. And as much as i wish i could be that person again, i cannot. Because i have been changed at a fundamental level by those experience.

      But, as far as the innie/outie ppl go, yes - they have changes in their personality due to different experiences and growth - as the innie versions are limited to exposure to environmental stimuli - they are stuck at work only - so, they only develop there - although, I think the show is trying to show - that 'deep within themselves' - they still have similarities that just don't manifest unless they are exposed to more stimuli/environmental factors?

    I think that calling oDylan "lazy" is a bit unfair, because ultimately, he is the same person as iDylan, at least they have the same foundation to build on. It's more plausible that Dylans has some form of neurodivergence which can make it hard to hold down jobs through no fault of oneself, but given the right circumstances they could blossom and be extremely productive (as iDylan is).
    What this really sets up is that reintegration would be extremely helpful for Dylan. iDylan would feel the things he didn't know he was missing and oDylan would realize that he is capable which can often be more than enough to get out of a depressive phase.

      1. When I saw the episode title of "Trojan's Horse", I thought that was a weird way to say it, as most people simply say "Trojan Horse". However, after this most recent episode and the unveiling of Salt's Neck, I wonder if Trojan's Horse could be related in any way.
      2. Now that Mark S is re-integrated, I wonder if Helena will actually try to kiss HIM and he'll be the one awkwardly avoiding it this time, tipping her off to the fact that something may be different about him.
      3. I freaking love this show. That's all.

    With Dylan, it's SO sad that he is disconnected from the knowledge of "finding his feet" in a job, esp if he is a screw up. Lazy is often an easy judgement or cover for deeper issues, i believe true laziness is actually quite rare, and if outie Dylan was not severed, he might be fulfilled and more engaged and motivated in life due to finally having found a job he thrives doing. It's interesting to be able to clearly see the negative impact of built up life experience that Dylan carries, and also the pure potential of innie, undamaged Dylan in comparison. The innies seem to be the purest expression of each character's nature and personality traits.

    I really don’t think Harmony/Ms. Cobel has ever had any malice towards Mark. I don’t think she’s his mom but I do think a couple people in these comments could be right about Harmony being severed with a different physical boundary, and her fixation on Lumon & the breathing tube could be her wanting to bring her mom back. I think there may be a third layer to their severed memories too based on evidence with the Exports Elevator but that’s a different theory. This one is honestly a pure gut feeling that Harmony(Ms. Cobel) has been trying to get Gemma back for Mark. I think she may have known everything about everyone before it happened. Here is my case: Harmony(is what I’ll call her for ease) has worked at Lumon as long as she can remember. She was probably already running the severed floor when Gemma had her accident. I think Harmony also knew Mark & Gemma before the accident and after it happened, she recognized Gemma inside Lumon, and planted the seed somehow with Outie Mark to work in the Lumon severed floor BECAUSE SHE KNEW SHE WAS GONNA ASSIGN HIM TO COLD HARBOR THATS WHY MARK WITH NO EXPERIENCE LANDED HIMSELF A HIGHLY COVETED POSITION(mdr) . I also think that she knew about the reintegration with Petey, and that maybe possibly there might be a small chance that she could facilitate Mark resurrecting his own wife from the dead, and that if the reintegration worked (that’s why she went to such lengths to get Petey’s chip to the board so they could confirm for her if it worked) I think Harmony’s been waking a very fine line of making sure Mark stays in mdr long enough to finish Gemma’s file, putting her outside self back together maybe? Whatever the file is, he’s gotta finish it before she’s ready. And even then, Marks reintegration has to go well and Gemma will also have to go through a successful reintegration to remember who Mark is. Veeeeeery long story short, I think Harmony is being set up as antagonist but may be our undercover protagonist. She screams when Mark confronts her in the street because she wants so so so badly to tell him but she can’t yet and if she tells outtie Mark anything, then they risk losing everything. Or I could be totally wrong. I’d be interesting hear your thoughts!

    I think the export hall is where they go when the product is ready . The product is the repurposed bodies. They could be using them for various things like surrogacy ( as birthing a big theme ).
    I was surprised when Dylan asked if his outtie was a fuck up, since Innie Dylan thinks he’s now famous on the outside. I was waiting for him to bring that up. Gretchen was probably worried he would lose his job if she didn’t help Seth and maybe feels guilt for lying to innie Dylan.
    I think Burt and Irving were lovers on the outside but broke up because Irving went off the rails from the effects of severance. The phone call Irving made , I think was to Burt , and the message was simply that Burt no longer wanted him. He felt rejected on the outside and on the inside.
    I was surprised that Mark was so quick to sever , particularly without consulting Devon. But it definitely pushed the story forward and I can’t wait to see what happens .
    I think cold harbour is needed for the ‘revolving’ of Jame Eagen.
    I think Cobels mum died during child birth and may also be an Eagen love child. I thinks it’s her agenda to bring her mother back to life or maybe integrate her memories somehow.

    I can guess that the Inni Dylan feels fresh to his outies wife, like a innocent Dylan that is interested in her and the kids, one that works really hard and promises to keep on going. So I guess at the end the innies will take over the outies lifes. As for Marks wife I think she is in coma, so she interreacts from a coma state, but maybe some brain damage allows her to only go out for few hours. Still I wouldnt be surprised if they simply took her brain after the accident, put it in a jar only to force its severed part to do free labor work not knowing its own state. The same might go for that asian girl, she might be victim of an traffic accident is either in coma or similar case, brain taken and forced to work.

    Mark and Gemma that’s why she wants to see cold harbor finished. To see if it works so she can implement it to her

    I don't think harmony was scared of being "reset". If lumen wanted her to be reset that bodygaurd could have dragged her into the building. It was an empty parking lot at night.
    I interpreted harmony walking away as her realizing she has the power. Helena wants her to come with her, but harmony is done with following lumens commands. If they want her back they'll have to go to her.
    Harmony starts the scene with a power play; she makes helly walk to her and then tells her the condition of her return. Helly responds with her own power play; saying harmony isnt as important as she thinks and then gets her return approved by the board in front of her. Helly "wins" because they walk towards the building but harmony plays her last card, leaving

      Bro they were in a parking lot at night and harmony clearly identified the situation not playing out in a cordial manner based on this guys presence. just to remind you this show still plays with the same logic as our world does. as such murder is still an illegal act. No one’s going to be dragging anybody in a parking lot just to run the risk of someone seeing that struggle regardless if it looks as if no one is there. People still like to commit murder in a controlled environment with zero witnesses. 😅

    I believe it is the year 2035. This is supported by 'The Kier Chronicle' newspaper and by Jame's age. The town of Kier is an isolated 'island', where the nearest town is a small place called Salt's Neck(name is linked to the breathing tube) 238 miles away. The town of Kier is a completely controlled community ecosphere, where Lumon supplies everything(food, water, housing, cars, technology, hospitals, schools, etc.). This is why there are old cars, TVs, computers, and phone booths and still have some advanced tech, like modern smart phones. It also makes is easy for them to recruit and experiment on the population. They control everything innie and outie.

    Helena Eagan is the heiress to Lumon and probably one of THE highest profile citizens in the State of "PE." We already know she gets media coverage from time to time. An reintegrated Mark Scout will immediately know Helly Riggs's outie is Helena Eagan. He'll have seen her on TV and in the papers.

      As high profile as she is I still think they could plausibly make it where mark has no idea who she is. It’s not like anyone knows who the Walmart ceo is from the top of their head. He also has demonstrated that he hast really been doing anything outside of drinking and grieving for the last two years. I don’t think he’d be that p to date in anything in that state. Also in season 1 he saw her as his outie as he had almost hit her with his car. He did not seem to recognize her at all.

      I think so too. I think it’s a futuristic psycho therapy. The guise to the consumer is the promise of repairing a broken person. The ulterior motive being that this personality/tempers R&D benefits creating “better” biotech engineered Eagens. I think the refining is how the company captures emotional markers for this research, and why fencing the numbers elicits such a spectrum of emotional responses within the refiners. Perhaps the severed “jobs” at Lumon are actually f/t paid biomedical research in an altered reality state?
      But to your original point…..when Milchek referenced “maintenance” that night that the doors etc were changed outside the MDR offices, my brain kept thinking the way it was referenced sounded eerily similar to software updates.
      And to tie it all together, what if it’s all part of the same simulation. If you have ever seen ‘The Game’ with Michael Douglas, what if all sides are pushing the characters towards the same path of events. What if Regahbi isn’t a rebel, but a part of it all?
      What if Dylan signed up for severance because he was promised to become a more engaged and loving family man (and career motivated) by being a part of this research. And what are some traits innie Dylan has exhibited thus far on his arc?? Hyper focus at work with high achievements, AND extreme love and caring and wanting to know more about his loved ones.

    I wonder if Dylan's spouse had a hand in pushing him to get a job at lumon. I also wonder if he is disabled rather than lazy.
    if his spouse dismissed valid issues like disability and refused to support him or understand his perspective it could bring up another thread around race and oppression in the show. Dylan falling for a version of his partner that's sweet and loving and says I love you could be complicated if she ignores the harm of being severed and loves a version of him that forgets abuse or any harm
    in our reality it would be like pushing your partner to get plastic surgery to fit an ideal then cheating and breaking up with them and saying loudly that you prefer a natural body and refusing to accept accountability for pressuring people into getting plastic surgery

    • @LethalTalentz

      I don’t think he’s disabled I think it’s as clear as day he’s just not fully consistent with work. They’ve hinted at it when he did the door interview. The guy briefly touches on every other job he’s had before he worked at lumen and remarks at how brief his history is with those other jobs. I think the route they’re going is how Dylan g feels oppressed by his outtie and will want to exist in his place considering himself a better version of himself than the one who apparently can’t hold a job long enough to provide for his family. Kind of an allegory on capitalism by making it where he’s doing all the work while someone else is reaping the rewards.

    I think reintegration should not be so traumatic.
    Effectively when one side is active, the other is asleep.
    So, really there is no loss of synchrony, as his memories of time will just be like changing a channel.
    There would not be two memories competing for the same time periods.
    The only thing the brain would need to reconcile is the thoughts and feelings of each other.
    That should not be so bad, either, as it would simply be like being aware of, and remembering your dreams every night.
