Episode 2: Half Loop

Outies, welcome! We're agog at how well we can tell you're already fitting in. Now, let's get this party started. But with Patrick out of office this week, Dave, Jasmin, Mells and Tyler will explore the intricate details of "Half Loop." This episode highlights just how much control Lumon exerts over its employees—both mentally and physically—with a closer look at the Helly's break room experience and Irving’s wellness check. We'll break down the hilarious intricacies of Dylan’s obsession with rewards, while marveling at the hauntingly surreal (and gooey!) title sequence. We explore the meaning behind the episode’s title, dive into Helly’s journey, and get into the unsettling brain-implant procedure that had everyone squirming. We'll examine the absurdity of Lumon’s day-to-day task list—complete with sweeping floors, refilling soap dispensers, and, of course, checking keyboards for weak keys.
