Summary

[THIS IS A RE-RUN OF A PREVIOUSLY RELEASED PODCAST. ENJOY THIS ENCORE PRESENTATION!!]


WELCOME BACK, REFINER!!
This time we're getting into the first half of the sixth episode of Season 2 of 'Severance.' This one is called "Atilla."

Not gonna lie to you, there's a lot of smooching in this one, Refiner. Innie-Dylan and Gretchen are are all over each other down in the Outie Family Visitation Suite. Mark and innie-Helly R. have taken over an unused work area and turned it into their own 'post-ORTBO' love den.

With all of the lovey-dovey happening all over the place not a lot is getting done in MDR. In the management office Seth Milchick is flogging himself over his disastrous Performance Review. Okay, so he's not LITERALLY flogging himself...but he does create a bizarre penance involving a thousand paper clips.

We've also got more Reghabi, more reintegration and...a post-nookie nosebleed?

Get out your blood pressure cuff, Refiner. It's time to open the file called "Atilla" (PT1).

Hey there, Refiner. Welcome back to the Severed Floor.

0:17.3

Our full rewatch of Season 2 is rocketing right along.

0:20.5

Even though we are more than

0:21.6

halfway through season two, I'm still going to say it. Spoilers, you must have seen all 10

0:26.7

of the season two episodes of Severance before you begin this podcast. There are spoilers

everywhere. Welcome to Severd, the ultimate severance podcast. I'm your host, Alan S. You've found yourself

0:38.7

somewhere deep in the severed full shot by shot moment by moment rewatch of season two.

0:44.9

We're mercilessly digging into every detail, identifying all the interesting set decoration,

0:50.7

and checking out some of the crackpot theories. Not all of them, because some of them

0:55.5

are kind of scary. Episode 6, Attila was released for download on February 20th of 2025. It was written

by Aaron Wagner along with creator Dan Erickson. This episode was directed by Uda Bresowitz.

1:07.9

This is our first episode, both written and directed by a woman. You may have

1:12.5

noticed more and more female involvement in both the directing and scripting of these mid to late

1:17.5

season two episodes. As the story's focus moves more towards Gemma and her struggles with

pregnancy, it seems to be the ladies who have the insight. In the next episode, Jessica Liganyi is going to take this female involvement to the pinnacle of creative excellence with her take on Chikai Bardo.

1:35.1

We couldn't find a comment from anyone confirming this move to female leadership, but it is definitely happening.

1:43.5

Uda Bresowitz is no stranger to the director's chair.

1:46.4

She began her career in 2010 by directing three episodes of the HBO comedy series Hung.

She also picked up an episode of weeds at about the same time.

Directing for HBO isn't like directing for network television.
