“Why are you a child? »

It only took ten minutes to RuptureSeason 2 premiere to introduce the question that will surely be on everyone’s minds for the rest of the season. Asked by former Lumon retiree Mark W. (Bob Balaban), the target of the question is Miss Huang, played with chilling apathy by Sarah Bock. Huang is one of the newest additions to the series Rupture world, and its mere existence on the cut ground carries disturbing implications. And that’s before we get into how she acts like a Lumon Terminator waiting for kill orders.

The season 2 premiere is not the epilogue to season 1 that we might have hoped for, given the cliffhangers of this season’s finalebut this world maze is actually expanded in a terrifying way. Following what Lumon dubbed the “Macrodata Uprising” involving the awakening of the Innies of the Macrodata Refinement team to the outside world, Lumon attempted to clean up its acts in a way that only a soulless corporation could. would do if his insidious operation were exposed to the public. Harmon y Cobel (Patricia Arquette) was replaced by Seth Milchick (Tramell Tillman) as floor manager, his manipulative intrusion into Mark S.’s life reduced to being a sadistic scapegoat who “developed an erotic fixation on [Mark S.]and intended to continue [lui et son Outie] in what we can call a ‘trouple,’” according to Mr. Milchick.

The break room is now a living room instead of a punishment room, a new family visitation room will allow Innie Dylan George (Zach Cherry) to spend time with his Outie’s wife, and the Innies will be able to roam free with a pass like schoolchildren. Lumon’s rebranding is suspicious at best, and misleading at worst. And Ms. Huang reminds us just how evil this company really is.

Other than the kids, no type of child was seen on the severed ground, which makes sense because adult work is rarely appropriate for a child. The fact that they brought her in after an employee tried to hang himself, another employee bit a superior and broke into the security room to wake up, and the former director of The floor was stalking one of the other employees, either because they have no regard for a child’s safety or because this child is woefully equipped to handle all of this. Based on the season 2 premiere, it may be the latter.

Ms. Huang’s jovial nature is as artificial as that of any Lumon superior, and she can go from friendly to fierce with frightening speed. When Mark S. sarcastically suggests to her that she’s one of his new friends, she gives him one of the coldest looks of her life. Severance pay the story before telling her: “I have to remind you that I am a supervisor…not a friend. » Then, she dangles her subtle reprimand into a confrontation with Mark S., almost as a way to let him know that she doesn’t let herself be fucked over like previous supervisors.

There’s no telling how brainwashed the youngest was Severance pay the speaking character is but even so, the season 2 premiere put enough fear in our hearts about how depraved Lumon will turn out to be in the new season.
