In the fourth episode of Severance season two, titled 'Woe's Hollow,' characters Mark, Helly, Irving, and Dylan embark on an Outdoor Retreat and Team Building Occurrence (ORTBO) amidst a picturesque yet surreal snowy landscape. Show creator Dan Erickson always envisioned a scene where an Innie wakes in an unfamiliar frozen environment. The episode's production faced challenges due to a severe Northeast snowstorm, complicated by the need for natural snow, showcasing the extensive effort that went into the filming process in the Catskills.
The surreal odyssey places Mark, Helly, Irving and Dylan on an ORTBO - that's Outdoor Retreat and Team Building Occurrence, obviously - designed to strengthen their loyalty to Lumon.
Production took place in March 2023, which coincided with a major Northeast snowstorm that dumped tons of wintry precipitation on upstate New York.
It was a whole ordeal... getting to set required the use of a snowcat, something the MDR Innies surely would've loved to borrow for their trek.
I always wanted this image of one of the Innies waking up in a vast, frozen area and not knowing how the hell they got there.
