Mark (Adam Scott) and Helly (Britt Lower) return to the goat room in season 2, episode 3 of ‘Severance'—could the goats represent something deeper?

Season 2, episode 3, “Who Is Alive?” finally re-centers the babies, this time revealing an entire department devoted to animal care: Mammalians Nurturable, led by a goatherd named Lorne (Gwendolyn Christie),

The episode sees Cobel still on the road after abruptly driving away from Mark, who confronted her outside her home. When she reaches an unknown place called Salt's Neck, she decides to turn around and head back, but like most things Cobel does, we don't quite know why.

Severance season 2 takes viewers to a previously unseen area of the Lumon severed floor: Mammalians Nurturable, where a herd of goats is grazing and is tended to by a sizable workforce. The goat room also introduces us to an all-new character played by guest star Gwendoline Christie, the apparent senior member of the Mammalians group.

The Goat Lady in Severance Season 2 is a character called Lush, played by actress Gwendoline Christie. She appears in Episode 3 and is shown to be the head of the Mammalian's Nurturable department at Lumon Industries. This department takes care of goats, a mysterious element that has been a point of interest since the first season.

Severance is a series shrouded in mystery, with each passing episode often raising more questions than answers while still managing to be incredibly satisfying. Still, in a series swimming in untold secrets, there is one question that we keep coming back to: WTF is the deal with the goats?

Mark and Helly meet the team of severed employees who care for Lumon's four-legged friends, Dylan meets his outie's wife, and Milchick meets his own unsettling image

Who doesn’t love getting a gift or reward for doing their job? Okay, Don Draper would tell you, “That’s what the money is for,” but this is Severance, not Mad Men, and Lumon Industries dishes out additional prizes as an incentive to work harder and faster.
