Viewers will recall that in season one we began with Mark being promoted at a fictional corporation named Lumon Industries. In a separate sequence we meet Helly who is on a boardroom style table after she was sent as a replacement for the work group now led by Mark who interviews Helly. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The first season ended in an episode aptly named \u201cThe We We Are\u201d that sets up the second season when viewers learn about the consequences of the main characters actions including details about their family relationships and their jobs as “Macrodata Refinement” specialists. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Over the course of the first season we learned that our heroes are Lumon employees who voluntarily have undergone a \u201cSeverance\u201d procedure that surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This is accomplished using a computer chip implanted in their brains. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This technology is not dissimilar to technology being developed and utilized in contemporary times to help handicapped individuals. However, in “Severance” the extent of the control of their memories goes far beyond what science is capable of today.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
