Gemma: the Full Time Employee (AKA My Theory of *almost* Everything)

Gemma dies or is in a coma after a bad car accident, has her body taken by Lumon, & then pronounced dead to her family + friends.

Car Accident victims are ideal candidates Lumon because their death is sudden & their bodies aren’t affected by disease / chronic ailments. (Ms Huang cross-walk guard)

She gets Severed & after “work shifts” takes the ominous DOWN elevator below the offices.

This lower level is the ‘dark/secret side’ of Lumon & will be of HUGE importance, inferred by Irvin’s paintings.

I don’t know if these full timers have an “Outtie” persona or are just in a kind of Cold Storage.

MDR’s computer task is the transfer of memories from dead ppl/coma patients that are uploaded and transferred onto Severance brain chips.

Successfully doing this would mean figuring out immortality, a common passion project of eccentric billionaires in our own world today.

The promise of living forever is enticing enough to get you a devoted army of people willing to do cruel things and keep secrets.

End Goal- A rich ruling class who use the Severance technology to unlock immortality and a lower working class, who have the tech used ON THEM, to make them subservient worker ants. And tragically signing up for it willingly.

** What say you? Any holes in this theory that don’t fit what we know so far?
