We know what Severance’s ‘Cold Harbor’ is, kind

Severance Episode 2 revealed to us that Mark is very necessary by Lumon, unlike many of his colleagues, it seems to end a project called “Cold Harbor.”

It can be easy to understand absolutely nothing about this, but the Ear -Søy fans have seen a short flash of something from section 1, the frame you see above with the screen of Mrs. Casey/Gemma with the “Cold Harbor” brand. So what we know for sure is that it is a project direct Related to Mrs. Casey, where it is no surprise that Mark would be a key to it, considering that it is his wife. Well, maybe his wife. And this is where the theories begin. Here’s all we can extract from this:

  • The Cold Harbor project is 68% complete. There are percentage of columns on the bottom similar to how the Macrodate team gets their bar up every day, although there are five bars, not four.
  • There is at least one theory that Gemma died in a car accident but was cloned, and the Macrodate team rebuilds her memories through their work and restored her “outie” personality, where she is currently a permanent “Innie.” We know she is a “newborn” innie, only after existing for a few days of real time when “activated”. It can also explain “scary” numbers if these unconsciously correspond to different aspects of her personality.
  • Or Mrs. Casey is not a clone, but rather physical Mark’s wife who did not actually die in a car accident as he thinks she did. Something may mean that there was no 100% proof that it was her or this happened as it is unclear why his sister would even entertain this idea if that is the case.
  • As for the term Cold Harbor, it refers to a battle that took place in the Civil War in 1864, which the Confederations won, and it was considered one of the most crooked matches in the US history. This does not seem to directly concern something that is going on here, but an important thing to note is that Lumon was founded in 1865 by Kier Eagan. This is only one year after the cold harbor match that … seems suspicious.

Although it is only a still framework, we can confirm that Cold Harbor and this whole Macrodate project, at least with this team, are related to Ms. Casey/Gemma. And about a clone, Android or Crash Survivor, I think this has something to do with building or rebuilding her old self. That’s the theory I go with. But we have more knowledge about Cold Harbor than we thought. I have no idea about the things of the civil war match, but yes, these dates are very strange. Why do I get the mood that Kier Eagan was probably a Confederate?

So no, nothing is proven yet but we kind Know what Cold Harbor is all about, which is more than we knew before, and we know the team directly feeds into the Gemma project. Hopefully we will find out more next week.
