Patricia Arquette's ‘Severance' character talks like that because ‘she thinks that's what power sounds like'
Even after two seasons of Severance, Harmony Cobel (Patricia Arquette) remains an enigma. The woman occasionally known as 'Mrs. Selvig' seems like the ultimate example of Lumon's management style, and yet she herself is constantly at loggerheads with her superiors. She apparently invented the severance procedure as we know it, and yet helps Mark Scout (Adam Scott) break through it. Many mysteries remain as Severance fans look forward to Season 3, but certain things about Cobel can be explained in the meantime. In a new interview with Gold Derby, Arquette says that she is responsible for both the character's look and her mannered way of speaking. More from GoldDerby 'Ballerina' targets $35 million opening in box-office clash with 'Lilo & Stitch' 'Brilliant Minds' creator Michael Grassi on how his love of Oliver Sacks inspired NBC's new medical drama The Making of 'The Eyes of the World: From D-Day to VE Day': PBS variety special 'comes from the heart' READ: 'When I was first thinking of building that character, I saw her with silver hair, white hair,' Arquette says. 'I felt like her hair should be a little older than she is. But also I wanted to have this affected, weird voice. I liked this idea that she's got this affected voice because she thinks that's what power sounds like. That's what these middle managers sound like. It's probably something she heard in school and you hear it a little bit from her aunt when you see the squalor she actually grew up in. So this is a made-up voice, a voice of success, and it's become this corporate sound.' Arquette continues, 'there's also an inscrutability when you're raised in an organization or structure [like Lumon], where you're not supposed to feel your feelings. You're supposed to swallow your feelings and you're not supposed to tell everyone what's going on or you'll get in trouble. You learn to play things close to the vest. I don't think Harmony's ever been really safe in her life anywhere or with anyone. And then when we went to Salt's Neck, it was like, 'Wow, this is a very Bergman-looking color palette, with actual icebergs floating by.' If your character looked like a piece of nature, she would look like an iceberg.' Cobel was not as prominent in Severance Season 2 as she was in Season 1, since she lost her position both at Lumon and as Mark's next-door neighbor. But she was able to take the spotlight in the episode 'Sweet Vitriol,' in which viewers followed Cobel back to her hometown of Salt's Neck — once the location of a major Lumon ether factory, now a left-behind wasteland full of poverty and addiction. Among other things, the episode revealed that Cobel basically invented the severance chip, despite getting little credit for it. It seems like a paradox that the Lumon employee responsible for its most important technology also defies upper management as often as Harmony does, but Arquette says that paradox is central to Severance. 'It may seem like a perversion, but honestly, her interior unresolved story informs the creation of the severance chip,' Arquette says. 'She's trying to prove something through this thing. There is a synchronicity between the severance chip and her interior landscape. They are very closely wedded to each other, these two things. It's not accidental.' The epidemic of ether addiction that pervades present-day Salt Neck is also no accident. Think of it, Arquette says, like an earlier attempt at separating people's work memories from the rest of their life. 'Ben [Stiller] wanted this rotting factory town,' Arquette says of Salt Neck. 'This is an early version of Lumon's attempt to create a corporate town, and these are the vestiges left over after the poisoning of the water and the ether factory and everyone becoming addicts. In a weird way, ether is an early form of severance. It's like the drug of forgetting. So what if you could forget, like with ether, but without the drug? Well then you would need a chip, and that's severance.'

Is Doctor Who Reunion Inevitable? Did Cleaning Lady Kiss Leave You Cold? How Would SNL Have Handled Trump/ Musk Break-Up? More TV Qs!
We've got questions, and you've (maybe) got answers! With another week of TV gone by, we're lobbing queries left and right about Doctor Who, The Cleaning Lady, Law & Order: Organized Crime and more! 1 | Given that David Tennant is still playing a Doctor in the Whoniverse, what are the odds that — in any potential new season of — Fourteen will cross paths with whomever/whatever Tennant's former on-screen companion, Billie Piper, is now playing?

Doctor Who: Watch Jodie Whittaker Nerd Out Over New TARDIS During Her 'Emotional' Return to Set 2 | Among the many issues we had with HBO's Mountainhead: When it became clear that his friends were trying to murder him, why couldn't Jeff just call for help? (They all had their phones, and they all have well-paid staffers hovering nearby.) And then the next morning, why did Jeff send his bodyguards away to face his would-be killers without backup? 3 | Given how easily s Dama was dispatched, isn't it kind of ridiculous that Bruegel or Christos or somebody didn't take her out sooner? Also, Animal Kingdom fave Jake Weary had so little to do on Dead City before Christos was killed off that we've gotta ask: What was the point of casting such a good actor in such a nothing role? 4 | What's your best theory as to why 's Kat pretended not to remember Seraphina's name when they'd just talked? And are you surprised that both Conrad and Maeve survived to the end of the season?

(Or without that, is the freshman series a full 100% identical to his half dozen other Fox shows?) 10 | Is it now safe to say that 's Voit has not been faking his amnesia…? And is anyone worried that the road is being paved for him to (gulp) 'join' the BAU next season? 11 | Has forgotten about Elliot's tremors? 12 | When all is said and done, could Jonathan Jackson's much-ballyhooed, nine-month General Hospital encore have been any more underwhelming? 13 | Is this one of those weeks in politics where you really miss what might have done with the big headline?
