Still processing this one... there's a lot to unpack. What's up with the different rooms?

Seems like she has a different severed personality for each one. And they all seemed to be either like chores or fears, I wonder if Lumon is planning severance for everyone to allow them to not have to experience fears.

Oh god... what if they are "growing" personalities that can perfectly handle these chores, so they can copy them onto Severance chips? So these versions of Gemma would be waking up in every person that buys one of these chips for convenience.

What if, unknowingly, Mark is condemning all these versions of Gemma to an infinitely copied, never-ending hell?

Their methodology is odd but maybe the logic in the show is that they believe they are "humanly" torturing her as innies to make her outie into the ideal Kier wife for Mark?

I could see this, conquering the four tempers and all.
