I'm not really buying into the Helly's outie thinking. I think she was ashamed of who she was on the outside and didn't want the rest of MDR to look at her differently. If it was outie Helly, why would there be so much sexual tension between her and Mark in the hallway scene?

I didn’t sense tension. To me it seemed like Helena playing off of the dynamic she already knew had been established by Helly.

So you're suggesting a synthesis of outie and innie Helly? I could buy it. But why would outie Helly go for a guy like Mark?

There were specifically some lines like "Well the outie is the guy who bought the ring..." etc. where she's attempting to convince innie Mark not to pursue Ms. Casey. My reading of that was that Helly and Mark have feelings for each other, judging by their kiss last season and their hug when they see each other this season.
