Severance Recap: Goat Expectations
Briefly

As Season Two of Severance unfolds, a pivotal question arises: what remains in the Innies when Lumon's severance chips are involved? While certain skills and knowledge persist, deep emotional experiences like love and childhood bonds cannot be erased. This theme dominates a key episode, reflecting on Cobel's experiences and hinting that love might be a powerful force capable of overriding Lumon’s control. The episode uses symbolism, such as Cobel's snowy roadside awakening and song choice, to underscore its message about love's enduring power despite severance.
The overarching theme of this episode lies in the (literally) cold open...while this song is a controversial retelling...the title also aptly summarizes the ideas present: Love, it spreads.
But what do the Innies retain that Lumon might not want them to retain? The answer to that question is no, and this might make Lumon nervous.
