Where the hell are they going??

I’m sure this has probably already been discussed but I just watched the season 2 finale and the post list is tl;dr.

I loved virtually every minute of this episode. I know they can’t all be this good, but some of the episodes truly felt like they were dragging the story out longer than necessary. I wish I didn’t feel as if they did it to make the finale feel more epic.

The existential drama of Mark arguing with himself. Dylan reading the note from his outie. Milchik grooving with Choreography and Merriment! So good!

At the end, though, where the hell are they going? I can absolutely understand Mark S. having a sense of self-preservation and wanting to be with Helly, but he has to know his life, as he knows it, is over! So what can he possibly hope to accomplish by running? Cobel told him that Lumon would discard him, so staying there isn’t an option. It’s a cliffhanger, I get it, I’m just trying to reason out the character’s motivation.
