Seth Milchick (Tramell Tillman) has become the living embodiment of malicious corporate compliance. Sure, he’s prone to a silly dance every now and then, and he’s determined to improve the lives of his subordinates, the employees who “sever” their minds to further the “mysterious and important” work at Lumon Industries. His failboss tendencies have also captivated the Severance fandom, which has grown bigger and more vocal as the series continues. But he’s also dedicated his life to upholding the unethical, dehumanizing values of one of the most evil entities in pop culture history — and Severance’s second season hasn’t shied away from the effects of that.
Severance Season 2 has seen Milchick take over management of the severed floor from Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette), his ice-cold superior, but something’s holding him back from conducting business as usual.
