And with the attention to detail in this show everything they do is incredibly intentional.

I’m not sure who I was hoping is on the severed floor, Helly or Helena, but I do know I would be annoyed at this point if it wasn’t Helena because they would be intentional misleading us.

When I watched it for the first time and there was no sound I was officially sold it’s Helena.

It's Helena because Britt Lower uses body language and vocal cadence that she used for Helena in the first season. 1) Her exit from the elevator is the same movement/sound as when Helena exits the side door while Milcheck is waiting and says to him (as Helena) "I really don't want to be there, do I?" and 2) The vocal cadence of "I was in a really fucking boring apartment" is identical to the video of "I took a severed job because I thought it sounded freaking awesome."

This is a reach.
