I now officially have no idea what’s going on. The logic is getting a little stretched, tho.

Agreed, I’m enjoying it and it’s definitely high quality…I’ll see it through.

This was just the first episode that had me scratching my head as to what she will and won’t ask Pluribus to do. She’ll have them transcribe her plan to “cure” them…but won’t just ask what the liquid is? It approaches a plot hole…even if it’s super interesting.

ETA: The last bit of Severance was definitely a stretch…reminded me of Maybe from Arrested Development: “Nobody will know what the hell happened, but they’ll say they like it because they don’t want to sound stupid.”

Well, I think she wants to protect some of the info she's figuring out. "They" can't harm her, but, eventually might be willing to kind of jail her.

…but she didn’t. She had them transcribe a message where she tells the others everything she knows about the olive oil…

Totally fine!

…as I was saying in another thread, it’s just a little annoying that she didn’t bother to ask what the oil was for…an artificial delay for suspense. It doesn’t ruin the show…but feels contrived.
