In the first episode of the second season, however, Helly has a different story for her friends. Instead of telling them who she is on the outside, she tells them that when she woke up, she was in an apartment by herself.

Severance season 2 is finally back after three years, and it was well worth the wait. The Apple TV+ workplace drama—which explores an alternate reality where one can physically separate their personal life from their work life—successfully builds upon the first season while recapturing the thrilling twists of its memorable season 1 finale.

Director Ben Stiller and star Adam Scott broke down the first few minutes of Season 2, Episode 1 on the official 'Severance' podcast.
