The best quotes from Severance hint at the show's larger plot and themes, and are spoken by key characters like Mark and Helly.
Severance gripped viewers from its premiere in 2022 with its sci-fi twist on the idea of a work-life balance. The series follows Mark Scout (Adam Scott), who agrees to have his memory surgically divided between his job and his personal life—a process known as Severance—along with his fellow co-workers, for his job at Lumon Industries. Their "innie" is the version of themselves at work every day with no memory of their "outie," or who they are in the outside world. The exact nature of their jobs at Lumon is a mystery, and one mystery has led to another in the two seasons the show has aired so far.
