Everything Lumon wants you to know about Severance Season 1. Season 2 is now streaming on Apple TV+ http://apple.co/_Severance
In Severance, Mark Scout (Adam Scott) leads a team at Lumon Industries, whose employees have undergone a severance procedure, which surgically divides their memories between their work and personal lives. This daring experiment in “work-life balance” is called into question as Mark finds himself at the center of an unraveling mystery that will force him to confront the true nature of his work… and of himself.
In season two, Mark and his friends learn the dire consequences of trifling with the severance barrier, leading them further down a path of woe.

00:00Oh, hi!
00:17You probably don't recognize me from this angle.
00:20I'm the Lumen Administrative Building, Branch 501, and you're sitting in me right now.
00:27The name's a mouthful, or as I say, a doorful, so you can just call me Lumen.
00:34I've gone through a lot of changes since my siring here in 1870, but one thing I've always
00:41had is a love for my workers, both unsevered and severed.
00:47Not to brag, but my basement floor is one of the premier severed workspaces in the 206
00:53countries from which Lumen operates.
00:56Hey!
00:57No running in my halls!
01:00That tickles!
01:06But what makes a building truly happy?
01:10This question came to light when four NDR workers, dissatisfied with their severed lives,
01:16conspired to mount what Lumen historians will forever call the Makrodat Uprising.
01:24Under my literal nose unfolded a human drama of danger and intrigue.
01:31Righteous anger.
01:32Let's burn this place to the ground.
01:41Inspiration.
01:42Why are we down here, still working in the dark?
01:50And love.
01:56What the sh...
02:00The Makrodat Uprising yielded bounteous reforms.
02:05These include tasty new snacks, like fruit leather, cut beans, Christmas mints, and salsa.
02:20Not sold yet?
02:21The incentives were also reformed, and now range from hall passes, to pineapple bobbing,
02:34to our brand new playful mirror room.
02:41You know, it's funny.
02:43I've sat by this reflective pool my whole life, yet it took the quiet courage of four
02:49NDR heroes to show me who I really am.
02:53They made quite a splish!
02:57They sure did, Water Tower.
03:00And I thank Kyr for them.
03:04I thank Kyr for the Makrodat Uprising.
03:19I thank Kyr for the Makrodat Uprising.
