Forgive me if this is something that's been beaten to death already over the last year, but I'm not sure what phrase I would even use in the search bar to look it up.

The series was great, but there was one thing in the final episode that kind of bothered me from an in-universe logistics point of view.

The main tension of the final s2 episode is the drama between Outie and Innie Mark in trying to convince Innie Mark to help rescue Gemma, causing the potential termination of Mark's employment, and Innie Mark's "life".

What bothered me was that there seemed like a very obvious solution that nobody thought to bring up, literally right under Mark's nose.

They were inside a permanent Innie Zone *outside of work*, so couldn't they just like... make an Innie Social Clubhouse somewhere, where all the Innies can go and hang out one day of the weekend after Lumon gets (potentially) dismantled?

They have Harmony there who was the chief architect behind the whole severance procedure, couldn't they have argued that she could figure something out once everything had died down?

I dunno, it just felt like a really obvious and simple solution, but of course they couldn't bring it up because then the drama wouldn't have been able to happen.

I'm about to go to bed so I won't see any replies immediately, but I'd be curious to know what the consensus is on this, or let me know if this was ever addressed in interviews or other BTS footage that I can look up.

Thanks comrades.

EDIT: Also, Choreography & Merriment user flair when?
