Summary
The innie rebellion is mostly a mystery to the outside world. There’s only one video from that time in existence, from the last day before the surrender. Mark Scout sees a clip of it on the news. A clip of his innie marrying Helena Eagan’s innie. And despite how happy he should feel about having Gemma back, he can’t stop thinking of Helly.

Summary
If Mark ever were to leave her, really leave her, which was an incomprehensible, ludicrous notion, the nightmares of which didn’t even leave her panting or crying because she never took them that seriously, she thought it would be for Gemma. That he’d call their whole relationship a mistake, pack his bags, and find his ex-wife on her National Geographic book tour and rejoin her.
She’d never considered, really, that there might be another option.
(Helly thinks Mark is flirting with someone else. She handles this really well.)

Summary
Mark knows he has to tell Helly about what happened on the retreat. If he doesn’t, Milchick will or even Dylan might—there’s no doubt he’d heard them in the night—and he knows that the only way he has any chance of repairing the broken trust between them is to tell her himself.
When he looks back at the mirror, he sees several of his own face staring back at him, like a reflection of a reflection of a reflection. He flinches and staggers backward; the movement shatters the illusion, and in an instant, he’s back to looking at the single image of himself, looking confused and bewildered into the mirror’s surface.
It’s not the first time he’s seen something that’s not there.

Summary
By choosing to live, Mark’s doomed himself to life in hell. He’d told her one time that Lumon was smarter than they were; he was right.
And because of that, Helly knows she’ll lose him no matter what.
Would it have been easier, less painful, if he’d have just followed Ms. Casey out the door? If she didn’t get her wish of more time? If she didn’t have to live every moment wondering if it would be their last?

Post-Cold Harbor. During the Innie Revolution, Mark's reintegrating, and Helly thinks every moment might be the last she has with her Mark.

Summary
In which Mark and Petey fall in love with each other and Petey's outie makes the drastic choice of reintegration for him.
"Why would I burn out?" Mark asks, genuinely curious.
"I've seen it. I've seen innies ask their outies to resign." Petey grabs his raisins from the vending machine, and settles in at the table, Mark right beside him without a second's hesitation. "The pressure of important projects can get to people."
"The work is mysterious and important," Mark says, because it's true. "You told me that on day one."
Petey seems to be examining his face for something. "Yeah, but I don't want you to go," he says. "The other guys are good, but – " He drops his voice a bit. "They're not as interesting as you are."
That's flattering. "I'm interesting?" Mark asks, honestly surprised.
Petey pops open his raisin container and laughs. "You can carry a conversation without relying on swearing or Kier," he says. "That makes you interesting to me."
Mark feels a strange kind of warmness wash over him. "Huh," he says. "I mean, you're interesting, too."

Summary
At first it had seemed the reintegration had been a failure, the first in their short history of being administered officially by what was left of Lumon. Gemma felt like Gemma afterwards, nothing more, nothing less. After a few days without any change, Gemma felt a sense of disappointment, of loss. She had wanted to free this long trapped part of herself, this mysterious Ms. Casey, to give her a chance at a life she could have never imagined. But sadly, it seemed she wouldn't be able to.
Then she started losing time.

Summary
Mark Scout wakes up alone in the stairwell. The panic is immediate: all the breath pressed from his lungs, his heart knocking wildly in his chest, something like electricity slithering under his skin. When last he’d been conscious, he had Gemma in his arms, her face pressed to his. Her voice still lingers in his mind: I’m sorry, she keeps repeating, again and again.
And now she’s gone.

Summary
Earlier that morning, Helly woke up for the second time ever to the sharp jerk of Gemma’s arm out from under her, and the following oof of Mark tumbling off the bed. She’d popped up, blurry eyed, to see Ms. Casey, comforter clasped to her (clothed) front, standing beside the bed. Her head swung from Helly, to Mark, to where she’d laid between them. “What… is occurring?”

Summary
"Did something happen?" Mark asks once she calms down and moves to sit next to him at the end of the bed. However when he tries to put his arm around her she waves it off. She doesn’t know how to tell him she feels like she hasn’t earned such a gesture.
"I think I have a fever," is all she says, pressing the back of her hand to her forehead. "Do you think it's from the reintegration?"
