He was the team leader/manager before Mark. He was innie Markâs best friend. He was âreintegratedâ - his severance was removed. He tracked down outie Mark to tell him whatâs really happening. The effects of reintegration made him super sick and eventually killed him (I think thatâs what killed him, but he definitely died). When he disappeared from Markâs house and died, he left behind a cell phone. It kept ringing and Mark eventually answered it and met with the doctor who did the reintegration. Raney appeared at that meeting, they killed him, and Mark took off. Petey also left a map of the severed floor. Also at Peteyâs funeral Mrs. Kobel showed up and removed the severance chip from his head, which allowed Lumon to prove reintegration was possible.
Its been a while so I dont remember his job. I dont think you can just quit once you become severed.
Oh they say you can, but im pretty sure there isnt anybody alive in the outside world who actually has. My guess is that quitting leads to death.
Pretty sure he is dead. I dont remember if we see his body, but its largely implied that he is dead and that Scottâs outie knows he is dead.
More general question:
Also a more general question. Do severed employees remember anything at all about their past? I assume they donât remember anything about people they knew or places theyâve been. But do they know what the United States is? Or who the President is? Or any President?
Dylanâs interview scene in the latest episode was great.
Thats right. Forgot the last part. Pretty important
How does quitting lead to death? When they fired the other team members they didnât seem afraid that they were going to die? If there is a firing mechanism, why canât they quit the same way?
If the outie gets fired or quits and never returns to the severed floor, for all intents and purposes the innie is dead. But that wouldnât kill the outie, it was the effects of reintegration that killed Petey.
Thanks.
Who is Raney? The doctor or someone else?
He was the creepy security guy in season one who would take them to the break room etc.
Damn, I donât remember him at all.
What is the difference between âreintegrationâ and the outie just quitting?
Anyway I thought Season Two Episode Two was amazing and I will watch it at least one more time. Too many things of interest to list, but Helenaâs fascination with Helly and Markâs kiss was compelling as shit imo.
Thanks. Now I remember the face.
Is he dead now? I seem to remember him dying, but I donât know why. There has to be some reason we havenât seen him in S2 yet. It that giant Mr. Drummond his replacement?
Reintegration allows the outie and innie consciousnesses / memories etc to exist at the same time in one person. If the outie quits the innie just never exists again, at least consciously. This hasnât been explained, Iâm just inferring.

Theyâll take some liberties with flashback episode where the CIA traffics drugs to pay for the FBI surveillance of MLK
Yeah, the reintegration doctor killed him when he showed up when she met Mark. I donât think the giant guy (I know him as Iceland from Somebody Somewhere) is his replacement, he seems way higher up.
It was so great. âThey make their doors in-house, itâs fucking hubris!â
âUhhâŚsemi-gloss.â âOhh. Thatâs hot.â
I didnât really understand that scene. Obviously he was dreaming it all, but did he just not go in for the interview or did he go in, get rejected, and have the dream after?
