New York Times review of Apple TV+’s “Severance” fails to recognize obvious multiple personality scenario including memory gap


“The employees of the macrodata refinement department of Lumon Industries have all agreed to undergo surgery to partition the work and personal sectors of their brains.


“When each of them enters the office, a work self becomes conscious and clocks in.  Come quitting time, the out-of-office self takes over and goes home, retaining no memory of life on the job.” (1).


Search “memory gap” for posts on this cardinal symptom of multiple personality.


Of course, multiple personality does not involve surgery.
