A brief recap of Severance season 2 episode 5
The episode sees Mark, Dylan, and Helly return to the severed floor, without Irving. However, their dynamic has changed following the events of episode 4. Mark stays away from Helly R., suspecting that she could be Helena in disguise.
Dylan holds a funeral for Irving in the break room in the presence of Mark, Helly, and Milchick. Later, he finds a secret note stashed away by Irving with directions to the exports hall situated at the end of the dark corridor.
Moreover, Irving and Burt finally meet in the outside world and figure out that their innies were in love while working at Lumon. Burt invites Irving for dinner the next day to discuss this topic with Burt's husband, Fields.
Mark has kept his reintegration a secret from Dylan and his sister, Devon. As his mind recombines his split memories, Mark begins experiencing splitting headaches and hallucinations.
In the episode's end, Mark sees a clear vision of Gemma as Ms. Casey inside Lumon's severed floor, finally getting the confirmation that his wife is alive.
Also, Drummond rebukes Milchick during his first performance review for his kindness reforms that almost cost Helena her life and led to Irving's firing. He is told to focus on getting Mark to complete the Cold Harbor file, stating that Mark's contribution will be remembered as one of "the greatest moments in the history of the planet."
By the end of Severance season 2 episode 5, Mark is shown to have completed 85% of the file.
What to expect from Severance season 2 episode 6?
Spurred on by his latest discovery, Mark will ramp up his search for his wife now that he knows where to look. Gemma/Ms. Casey is likely held in the exports hall and Dylan has the directions to the secret location. The two can crack the code if they stick together, which, considering the recent developments, may be harder than expected.
Also, Milchick told Mark that he would be tightening the leash on him, making it more difficult for him to go snooping around the severed floor. With the Cold Harbor file close to getting completed, it may become a race against time to find and rescue Gemma before it's too late.
Furthermore, the outies of Irving and Burt may continue to connect the dots in Severance season 2 episode 6, and make some startling discoveries about Lumon's sinister activities.
Another intriguing dilemma is the romantic triangle forming between Mark, Gemma, and Helly R. The reintegrated Mark will have to reconcile his innie's romantic feelings for Helly with his outie's love for Gemma at some point in the upcoming episodes.
