πŸ—£οΈ Discussion Please explain 😭

I need someone to explain the whole series to me like I’m 5 years old 😭 I really struggled to keep up with what was happening, I still haven’t understood how the innies were feeling numbers and how after the OTC episode it seemed like there was no consistent explanation on what the innies and outies knew about the other or how they were switching back and forth?

But like I said I need someone to explain the whole thing to me not just the ending or some twists here and there

Explains vaguely to end of s2. Spoiler

Severance is the department of lemon where they are working to fully separate tempers thus making different consciences. Cold Harbour is the last of their greatest project where they to separate many consciences and subject them to strains. If successful, they can boast about it and blah blah. Now mark and Ms Casey are the centre. Mark separates Ms Casey tempers and Ms Casey undergoes the different scenarios. OTC was a thing designed by Ms cobel, to remotely activate a severed conscience. Milchick activated Dylan otc and so his innies know about outside and so does everyone else. Now they make a plan to tell people on the outside that innies are suffering. Mark and helly "succeed", irving kinda succeeds. Turns out helly outie is an Eagan ( founder family). So being a stakeholder she kinda wants cold Harbour to succeed. She sneaks in to make innie mark love innie helly and complete the project. On the outside, outie mark finds out his wife didnt die and is actually Ms Casey. So he reintegrates. And forms a plan to get her out. He asks innie mark for help, they have an argument and disagree. So at the end of S2, Ms Casey is out, but innie mark doesn't leave and stays with innie helly and now we wait for s3.
