In season one , we learned that Mark Scout decided to become a severed employee at Lumon Industries because he thought it would help him cope with the loss of his wife, Gemma , in a car accident a few years prior .

The knife-twist, of course, is that she’s alive.

Severance's most searing example of grief not involving Mark springs from the relationship between innie Irving and innie Burt.

The two men meet-cute in the hallway and have an instant connection.

When Burt abruptly “retires’s” from Lumon , he gets a cheery send-off party, but his departure is as shocking and final-feeling as Petey 's.
