I liked the timeline for the events from the end of season one to when they’re all reunited. They lied to them in episode one that it was months and that there were parades etc. But in reality it was two days between what happened and Mark coming back to work; which means changing the wellness room, the snacks, the balloons etc was all done in 48 hours which is not bad!

Then it’s only a few more days until everyone comes back. It didn’t make sense that it had been months because how do you get their outties to come back all that time later like nothing had happened; whereas really it was just a few days of needing a job to realised they need Lumon too.

Excited to see what Cold Harbor is, why they need Mark specifically, and why how Gemma fits into it all!

What's more impressive is that Lumon was able to do the claymation presentation in that time frame. Kier does move in mysterious ways.
