With his outie determined to find and save Gemma, we now have a love hexagon on our hands between Mark Scout, Gemma, Mark S, Helena and Helly R. That’s the same number of participants at a weird Lumon Waffle Party, but it probably will take more than a Keir-themed sexual ritual to untangle.
Now she’s accountable for two screw-ups: her innie escaping and trying to raise the alarm about the terrible stunted existence of Lumon’s severed employees at the end of the first season; and almost getting herself killed on the ORTBO, resulting in Helly’s re-activation.
Already heartbroken over the retirement of his office crush Burt (Christopher Walken), Woe’s Hollow ended with his noble sacrifice to bring back Helly R. After almost murdering the Lumon heir under a spiritually significant waterfall, Milchick unceremoniously fired him by forcing him to walk out into the woods and flipping the switch.
Season two episode four, Woe’s Hollow, featured a dramatic showdown after Mr Milchick (Tramell Tillman) took the rebellious Macrodata Refinement (MDR) team on a snowy wilderness excursion aka the ORTBO (Outdoor Retreat and Team Building Occurrence).
The last true interaction between Mark S and Helly R was at the end of the last season, when Helly grabbed him for a kiss before the MDR overtime contingency mission.
