<p><span style= "white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-family: Calibri;">Laci R. is back from her absence, and she has many thoughts on "Sweet Vitriol"... both the episode of Severance and the episode of Lumon Is Listening that Matt and John D. hosted while she was gone.</span></span></p> <p><span style="white-space: pre-wrap; font-size: 12pt;">Does she have a kinder opinion of "Sweet Vitriol"? Does she see things a little differently.
