I am really enjoyed this episode. It was so much tension. I have so many questions.
Who is the guy picking up the dentist equipment? He and the guy in Ep 1 in the hallway are a mistery to us. I initially though he was Burt in the car and going to kill Irv. But I am glade we will explore his storyline more.
I feel so bad for Mark. He feels so betrayed. We know now it is Helly but he doesn’t. It is so sad to watch him.
And Milkshakes moment with Natalie. Is he breaking? Will he look for Cobel to get help?
I know everyone says each episode was the best yet, but I liked this one by a stretch more. Ep 4 was a crazy, it was so out there, but 5 is where the show shines for me: liminal space, office back rooms, personal connecting and the mysterious work. Can’t wait to see more.

I thought it was Mark’s outie, hence him not giving a fuck about Irving (because he doesn’t know him)
Good point on Mark’s ambivalence toward Irving. He also says “he’s not dead, he’s just not here” which is what his outie says about his wife when talking about “her” ashes
In a previous episode, the sweet old lady told Irving that they used to take equipment down the elevator themselves. But now a guy comes to take it from them. I'm under the impression that this whistling dude is the one.
And that whistling sounded like an actual song, so now I'm thinking he might not be severed.
Absolutely an actual song. The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot.
Given that the guy was whistling a song, I wonder if it means he is not severed.
Exactly.
