When I watched Apple TV+‘sSeverancefor the first time , I was astonished at the unequaled and haunt premiss of the show . The sci - fi serial follows a squad of office workers who have had their minds cleave .

Therefore , when strange things begin to bump , Severance’sunanswered questionsbecome even more important .

Severanceseason 1 offered many answers about the world of Lumon Industries . At theend ofSeveranceseason 1 , the function workers , otherwise know as " innies , " in short switch places with their abode selves , known as " outies . " Helly discovers that she is the girl of Lumon ’s chief executive officer , meanwhile Mark learns that he join the severance program due to his wife ’s death , though Gemma may actually be awake . While these revelations were surely satisfying , I was still left with myriad questions at the end ofSeverance . In fact , there is one scene that I still do n’t sympathise at all .

Apple TV+ ’s thriller Severance adds a whole fresh substance to employment - life counterweight . Here ’s a breakdown of the various cast extremity and their characters .

Severance’s Goats Still Make No Sense

AlthoughSeveranceseason 1 introduce a number of eldritch mysteries , the most puzzling of all was the goat shot . InSeveranceseason 1 , episode 5 , Mark and Helly take a risk by leaving the Macrodata Refinement Department to make a mapping of the Lumon construction . During their journey , they unfold a doorway and detect a disgruntled office worker feed a large number of baby goats . To see the goat within the creepy-crawly vacuous wall of Lumon was astonishing enough , but I could n’t believe it whenSeverancedidn’t offer even a jot of an answer about why the Capricorn the Goat were there .

I ca n’t aid but question how a bunch of baby goats could fit into the office work being done at Lumon

Two years after the ending ofSeveranceseason 1 , I still do n’t get the goat picture . While I can be contented to let mysteries be whodunit , the goats are only too unearthly to ignore . I ca n’t facilitate but wonder how a crew of baby laughingstock could go into the office workplace being done at Lumon . In some ways , the goats could potentially act as a hintabout what Lumon and Kier Eagan are up to . Yet , the evidence is not really line up . The goat fit make me more eager than ever to seeSeveranceseason 2 .

No Severance Theory Can Truly Explain Season 1’s Goats

The Goat Theories Are All Unconfirmed

consider how random the goat scene is , it ’s no surprise that viewers have submit their own theory aboutSeverance’sgoats . One strong disceptation hail from an former gulp ofSeverance’sfirst instalment . There is a scene where Harmony Cobel demonstrateshow falling out worksvia a black rat . Many trust thatLumon is using the goats to examine different versions of their technology . Other strong theories paint a picture the goat are examples of clon or symbolize the god Pan , from Arthur Machen ’s novel , The Great God Pan . Though these possibility shake up me , none of them truly put my curiosity to rest .

Ultimately , I do n’t imagine anySeverancetheory could fully explain the Capricorn picture . Mostly , this is because there simply is n’t enough selective information to go on . The Capricorn scene inSeveranceseason 1 offer viewers a mere glance at the goats , and nothing else . In this direction , theory could go in just about any direction and have some merit . I could peck whatever possibility seems coolest and put my religious belief in that . Yet , none of these theories have square evidence backing them . In this room , the goat arewhatwe require to see inSeveranceseason 2 .

Don’t Worry, Severance Will Explain The Goats

Severance Season 2 Will Return To The Goats

As much asSeveranceloves its mysteries , I have no dubiety that the series will explain its goatseventually . Every detail inSeveranceseems thought - out and knowing . Though most solution are conceal from audiences at this full stop , there is likely a intellect for that . The Capricorn scene is no different . I believe thatSeveranceseason 2 will riposte to the Goat in some capability . Even just one more soupcon about the caprine animal will be a winnings for the second time of year .

Severanceseason 2 has no confirmed acquittance date at this sentence .

All in all , I ca n’t wait forSeveranceseason 2 . I ’m anticipate plenty of answers , but also , lot and lots of questions . One day , I ’m sure it will all make sense . However , until the 24-hour interval comes , I will continue obsessing overSeveranceand its wild caprine animal aspect .
