‘Severance’ Season 2, Episode 4 Delivers Its Most Shocking Twist Yet
Alright, Severance fans, buckle up because Episode 4 of Season 2, Woe’s Hollow , just dropped, and things are getting wild . After a three-year wait, we’re finally back in the twisted world of Lumon Industries, and this episode? It’s unlike anything we’ve seen before.
We open with the MDR crew—Mark, Helly, Irving, and Dylan—waking up in the middle of a snowy wilderness. No cubicles, no white sterile halls—just ice, trees, and a cryptic message from Mr. Milchick welcoming them to an Outdoor Retreat Team Building Occurrence (ORTBO). Yep, Lumon decided that after all the chaos from Season 1, a little company-sponsored camping trip was in order. The setting? Dieter Eagan National Forest—named after Kier Eagan’s twin brother. But this isn’t just a team-building exercise. There’s something bigger at play here.
Milchick informs them that Kier Eagan supposedly wrote a fourth appendix to his teachings in his final moments—a text so sacred it’s forbidden on the severed floor. Their mission? Find this mysterious text hidden in Scissor Cave , the very place where Kier allegedly tamed the four tempers. So, off they go, guided by eerie doppelgängers of themselves—seriously, these ghostly versions feel straight out of Courage the Cowardly Dog —toward a place called Woe’s Hollow , a waterfall that’s supposedly the tallest in the world. Sounds innocent enough, right? Wrong.

Once they recover the text, things get really weird. We learn that Dieter Eagan had a, uh, special connection with the forest. Kier’s words describe his twin engaging in some deeply intimate moments with nature—complete with “rhythms of the wind” and “crickets’ trill” playing in harmony with his actions . Yeah, that’s exactly what it sounds like. Helly, never one to hold back, calls it out for what it is: “That’s actually the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.” Milchick, furious at the disrespect, punishes them by tossing all the Kier-branded marshmallows into the fire—because apparently, marshmallows are only for team players.
But the episode’s biggest shocker comes with Helly . Or should I say, Helena ? Because as Irving pieces things together, he realizes that the person they’ve been traveling with isn’t Helly at all. It’s her outie, Helena , who has been secretly infiltrating MDR this whole time. And when Irving finally confronts her, it turns into a full-blown fight for survival . He drags her to the freezing waters of Woe’s Hollow, threatening to drown her unless Milchick brings Helly back. After some tense moments, Milchick gives in, and with a single radio command—"Remove the Glasgow Block"—Helly is finally reawakened. But at what cost?
Irving, our devoted rebel, has sealed his fate. His punishment? Immediate and permanent dismissal. And in the world of Severance , that means more than just losing a job—it means ceasing to exist . We watch as Irving walks into the woods, a look of peace washing over him, before he collapses. Just like that, innie Irving is gone.
Of course, this episode leaves us with even more questions. Why was Helena pretending to be Helly? What the hell is up with the creepy twin mythology? And is Woe’s Hollow even real , or is this just another elaborate Lumon simulation?
One thing’s for sure— Severance is back, and it’s playing for keeps.
