【Passion's Peak (2002)】

In the world of Severance— whether it's stories about Dieter Eagan or Passion's Peak (2002)objects in the childhood home of Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette) — nothing is accidental.

The same can likely be said for Apple TV+'s short teaser for Season 2, episode 9, which shows a person cutting a boiled egg on a plate.

Seems fairly innocuous, right? Maybe some parallels between the egg cutting and Lumon's severance procedure?

Well, as @zoeonfilm pointed out on X, the clue may actually lie in the plate the egg is being placed on.

"two women, in red and blue, grabbing the same man," they wrote. "two versions of the same person going after one man. i wonder where i’ve seen this before…"

Once you've seen it, it's difficult to unsee it. The design on the plate appears to show two identical women grabbing the same man. A reference to Mark S (Adam Scott) and his complicated relationship with Helly (Britt Lower)? It seems likely.

Is this just a throwaway Easter egg, though, or foreshadowing? Helena Eagan, Helly's Outie, already tricked Mark into having sex with her in episode 4, before "bumping into" his Outie at a restaurant in episode 6. What was her motivation for doing that? And what else might she have in store?

Severance Season 2 is now streaming on Apple TV+, with a new episode every Friday.
