Biotechnology corporation Lumon Industries uses a medical procedure called "severance" to separate the memories of their employees depending on whether they are at work or not. When a severed worker is at work, they are dubbed "innies" and cannot remember anything of their lives or the world outside. Season one centers on one severed employee, Mark, who gradually uncovers a web of conspiracies at Lumon.
