Severanceseason 2 , installment 8 , which focalise entirely on Ms. Cobel , is doubtlessly the most controversial episode of the second time of year . Some fans point out that it wholly shatter the momentum of the season , while others argue that it has some extremely important reveals . In my opinion , both arguments are dependable . In this episode , Ms. Cobel ultimately arrives at the township of Salt ’s Neck , which is where she grow up , after fleeing from Helena Eagan in sequence 3 of the time of year .

On the discerp storey of Lumon Industries , Helly is deadset on learn the focus to the Exports Hall , while Dylan go through the first heartbreak of his life after Gretchen tells him they ca n’t see each other anymore . This episode contain many interesting plot of ground points , but it just seemed like it was buying metre before the time of year 2 stopping point .
