    Randomly started watching this on a flight last week and became completely obsessed. Binged everything to get caught up in like 10 days.  Can't believe there was a 3 year break between seasons!  Hopefully some questions start getting answered these next 2 episodes.  That Gemma episode was wild.
    Insanely good show.

    So do we have any theories on how Gemma ended up there? I am really confused by it. 

    There was a scene in the Gemma episode where she was doing some work at home and Mark kind of made fun of what she was doing. Did I miss something there? Could that have been prep work for a new job she was taking at Lumon? Could she have willingly applied for a job there and then Lumon staged her death in a car accident or something? 
    That's kinda what I've been thinking too.  And what the hell is Cold Harbor?!?

    I took this as work she was doing from the Lumon-run fertility clinic. She had one of the ideographic cards that Dylan stole in Season 1 when they found out about the overtime contingency. Really excited to see how the next two episodes go. I'm seeing that the runtime for the season finale episode is 76 minutes!

    I wish every episode was 76 minutes.  I can never get enough.  I think there's something to the theory of her accepting a job there and having her death staged.  Maybe she was guaranteed some type of treatment to help her with pregnancy and child birth given everything her and Mark went through trying to have a child.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    I saw the first two episodes of season one like a year ago at a friends house. It was good. I don't have apple + tv. However my friend has it on his plex. I'll have to restart watching it again now I think.

    Did anyone else think of George cutting his Snickers while watching Helena eat that hard boiled egg?

    I thought more of Rocky I when Jame said he wished she would have them raw.

    I still want to know who Irv was talking to at the pay phone booth.  That seems to have been lost since he caught Burt watching him talking on it.

    Wondering if the "you tricked me" refers to their bathroom conversation from S1 finale where she was her innie?

    They've lost me pretty badly with this whole episode with Patricia Arquette at her sister's house in a small town drama. I don't even understand wtf is going on honestly. I must not be paying attention enough. Otherwise, really loving season 2 so far.

    It’s her Aunt Sissy.  I think the real gist is that she is the real architect of the severance technology, not Jame Eagan.

    Shit, really?? Yeah. I definitely wasn't paying enough attention. Now that you say that, I feel like I need to watch it again!
