Instead of subjecting the team to Harmony Cobel’s harsh and degrading methods, Mr. Milchick adopts a more lenient approach by making Lumon appear as a welcoming work environment to the Innies. Rather than using pressure or punishment, Milchick offers incentives, hoping it will motivate Mark (Adam Scott) to complete the critical work on the Cold Harbor file. In Dylan’s case, Milchick is manipulating his desire for knowledge about his Outie’s life. During Episode 3 of Severance‘s second season, Mr. Milchick advances his strategy by granting Innie Dylan a monitored meeting with his Outie’s wife, Gretchen G., lasting 18 minutes (Merritt Wever).
