What Is Cold Harbor in Severance S02E02? Ending Explained

In episode 2 of “Severance Season 2,” titled “Farewell, Mrs. Selvig,” we’re introduced to a new element called Cold Harbor. This has left viewers puzzled about what exactly Cold Harbor entails and how it might influence the broader narrative. As the second season delves deeper into the mythology and world-building established in the first, Mark Scout and his associates must deal with the repercussions of their efforts to uncover Lumon’s questionable and unethical activities.

Curious about Cold Harbor in Severance Season 2 Episode 2? Here is the concept explained.

What is Cold Harbor in Severance Season 2 Episode 2’s ending?

In Severance Season 2 Episode 2, Cold Harbor is a coded MDR file that Mark Scout was handling. This file was briefly shown towards the end of the Season 2 premiere on a computer screen with Ms. Casey, who seems to be Mark’s late wife Gemma, present.

The display labeled “Cold Harbor” and featuring Ms. Casey’s image, presented various percentage figures. On the screen, “ITNO 25.00” was clearly visible, suggesting it was related to Ms. Casey’s project. Also displayed was a 68% reading, implying that Cold Harbor is nearly finished.

At the bottom of the screen, a row of five percentage readings were shown, similar to sorting boxes found in MDR. These boxes hold encrypted data following employee emotions. Each reading was tagged with abbreviations – WO, DR, FC, and MA – that seem related to the four emotional states highlighted by Lumon’s founder, Kier Eagan: Woe, Dread, Frolic, and Malice.

It appears that Cold Harbor is a crucial initiative for Lumon, as demonstrated by Helly successfully convincing management to bring back Mark Scout, who possesses exceptional abilities in deciphering complex encrypted data. Additionally, Lumon rehired Irving and Dylan with the intention of persuading Mark further to complete this important project.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t reveal much about the upcoming project except for this intriguing tidbit – it appears to be connected to the actual Cold Harbor, a place steeped in history found in Virginia. This location was the scene of the intense Battle of Cold Harbor during the American Civil War.
