Severance begins with Mark S., an employee in Lumon Industries’s Macrodata Refinement (MDR) division, being promoted to department head following his coworker Petey’s sudden departure. Mark’s first task in his new role involves orienting new employee Helly (Britt Lower), who wakes up in a conference room with no memory of who she is.
After being informed about the “severance” procedure by her “outie” through a video, she realizes that her memories have been divided, with one version existing solely within the workplace. Meanwhile, the “outside” version of Mark grieves the loss of his wife, Gemma. Helly is introduced to Irving (John Turturro) and Dylan (Zach Cherry), who seem comfortable with having dual lives.
