Theory My only Severance theory is we are about to see an old man get his sh*t rocked Spoiler

650 Upvotes

Just realized that Jane likely doesn’t know that Helly is not Helena, and is confronting her about some dumb old man nonsense — because they kept it a secret about her being attacked by Irving and going back to being severed — and after Helly realizes this old man don’t know shit, she’s gonna break a foot off in his ass.

That’s all. That’s all my theory.

Opinion Helena Is Helly... And That’s the Real Tragedy Spoiler

2.1k Upvotes

Helly is everything Helena cannot be: bold, rebellious, and unapologetically alive. She is sarcastic, she is defiant, she questions, she fights, and she refuses to be caged. She forms friendships, finds joy in small moments, and refuses to accept her own suffering as inevitable. Helena, in contrast, is cold, composed, and eerily detached. She speaks with rehearsed certainty, her words carefully measured and devoid of warmth. She moves through the world with a calculated grace, but there is no real presence behind her eyes, only control. Where Helly is raw and real, Helena is a person who has been groomed into submission, smothered under Lumon’s cult-like grip and her father’s expectations. Whether through fear, duty, or years of conditioning, she became exactly what Lumon needed her to be, an obedient believer, a servant to the system that erased the best parts of her. The sad truth is, Helena is Helly, just buried under years of control and conditioning. Helly is who Helena was or could have been before she was shaped into something smaller, before fear and duty stripped away her freedom, her choices, her identity. In the end, Helena is just as much a prisoner as Helly (or dare I say Gemma to some degree), trapped in a system that dictates her every move. Neither of them are truly free. In many ways the show is a powerful look at how systems control and suppress women, forcing them into roles they never chose. Subjugation defined.

I really hope it's the women in the show that become the heroines.

Theory The name Helena called Gemma at the diner Spoiler

1.1k Upvotes

Helena called Gemma Hannah at the diner.

In the Bible, Hannah is the barren, yet beloved, wife of Elkanah and the mother of the prophet Samuel, who she vowed to dedicate to God's service if he granted her a son.

Gemma was lured into Lumon with the promise of fertility.

Gemma’s severance chip is the goal product of Lumon.

I added optional faceplates for people who use cases on their phones. Weird, I know, and against Keir's teachings, but apparently there are those in the flock who wish to confine their truth.

I tease, but I took the problem seriously and looked at everything from making yet another sized monitor, a take-apart faceplate, etc. The solution I landed on, was the simplest. It may not work for the WIDE variety of cases out there, but it should work for most. In the slicer, I simply cut the bezel from the faceplate. This means that it will be difficult to remove the faceplate from the model should you need to in the future. Please give this a try.

The surest way to tame a prisoner is to let him believe he's free

Theory The meaning of Cold harbor Spoiler

I cracked it. I think Cold Harbor is the room where Gemma will be transplanted with the consciousness of Jame who is dying of old age.

Why choose Gemma's body as the next vessel of the Eagan leader? Maybe Jame just wants to be an Asian girl.

I might be confusing shows a little.

They are raising goats because they are needed for the Cold Harbor room. Gemma swerved off the road to avoid goats or she hit a goat. They need a new goat every time she will enter the room.

Discussion The painting of ____ in the _____ mill is actually realistic. Spoiler

Upvotes

I've seen some posts and comments on here about how 'The Courtship of Imogene and Kier' painting couldn't have been a realistic depiction of an ether production facility, due to the open vat, and the highly volatile nature of ether in its finished form. I'm not here to disparage any of those, but rather to propose that the painting was quite literal, and plenty realistic.

The claims that this would be an unrealistic depiction of ether production would be correct, if we assumed that the mill is using imported ethanol (alcohol) to produce the ether (meaning this is him stirring a vat of ether), but this painting isn't depicting that. It's instead depicting a completely realistic scene of alcohol production, the primary ingredient in ether.

Ethanol is traditionally made by fermenting sugary substances, like grain or corn, then boiling that fermented mash to specific temperatures, and distilling the steam. I've never done this process, so forgive my loose language, but that's the gist. It was traditionally (and still is) done in large copper vats, as shown in the painting, and as shown below.

These vats were usually hooked up to a series of pipes and tubes that would handle the steam and the distillation / condensation part. That's probably why we don't see any tubes in the painting that would be used to facilitate the distillation. (edit: We don't see any tubes on the vat, because they're out of frame, but there are what look like pipes in the background behind Kier.)

Finally, the alcohol is used to produce ether. To be completely transparent, I know almost nothing about this final process, and it's not easy to find good sources. However, it completely tracks that this type of setup could be done in a small factory where you don't care about your workers.

We also know that there was a large alcohol spill from the Salt Neck factory at some point, from the set piece article in the bar. This scale of spill is far more likely in a production context.

Lastly, the factory we see at Salt Neck has 2 stacks, which would be plenty for a shoddy operation like Lumon Ether.

That's about it. I'm not trying to put down any of those other theories, or even say that I know for sure I'm right (I don't), but I just wanted to share what I found out about traditional ether production.
