This show is really fucking weird and i like it a ton. This episode clearly had the most forward movement in a while but somehow wasnt as entertaining as the rest....but i still liked it bigtime?
I need to watch the scene again, cause apparently that lady was Stephanie Allynne, an excellent comedic actress, Pistol Shrimp, and wife to Tig Notaro
I knew she was in the season too, and somehow I didn't notice she showed up
Between her, Brett Gelman, and John Ennis, good mining of the LA comedy scene this season

This episode really was a lot of convergence.
Like, sure, Hawk lays out the pages for Frank, but also, the Dougie scene covered almost everything involving that character's story arc so far-the crooked coworker and then the blown up car and then the boss and then the jackpot winnings and the loan sharks and then Ike the Spike...and then Ben Horne gets the old key, regales Beverly a little bit about the time an FBI man got shot in the Great Northern-and this, you'll notice, not even mentioning the quiet revelation of Briggs' body, and Diane meeting Dark Cooper, and then Dark Cooper's escape and reunion with Ray.
Things are picking up considerably.
It does seem like Dougie's stuff is perilously close to peaking.
With the attack and the news footage, the Casino is bound to come knocking, I would think. That's really the only piece of the Dougie plot left.
Dark Cooper:
Ray better get us to that secretary to learn what else is so special in Buckhorn. Ray might be planning a sabotage of his own, but I really want to learn what Matthew Lillard's principal was doing in all this. ALSO, the jarring implication that Major Briggs' fingerprints were showing up in random crime scenes-NOT false body identifications like I had expected, leading us into some stranger territory still. Was there a Dark Briggs?

I don't think that was the person you think it was in the bar scene. They looked similar but I'm pretty sure not the same guy
That was totes Chad and i can prove it in meme form.
Also I'll hear not a bad word against my boy Andy. He's simple, possibly geriatric, but there's no way he's dirty.
Well dang. I stand corrected.

I mean, it's been 25 years. During those 25 years, Andy and Lucy have both (apparently) held down full-time jobs, and
only had one kid.
Twin Peaks doesn't seem like an especially expensive town to live in. So, which is the most likely?
1) Andy Brennan, as we know him, is involved in a drug ring (and now, child slaughter)
2) At some point in the last 25 years, either Andy saved up enough and bought himself a fancy watch, or Lucy saved up and bought him one as a gift
3) This is the rare instance of a costuming goof
4) Some Lynchian shit is going on that will never fully make sense or possibly even be explored, but will instead exist on the periphery of our awareness and serve to launch countless thinkpieces about "the significance of Andy's watch"

Let's not overthink the watch. Just as easily I can imagine Wally Brando being all, 'Fatha, I hiv travelled this land and (25 MINUTES PASS AS MONOLOGUE UNROLLS) I've neva forgotten and always remimba'd our times together, and want to give you this givt of time.' and gives Andy a rolex he won in a game of wits during one of his innumerable travels.

I wasn't expecting any of this.
It wouldn't surprise me if right about now Ray isn't gonna start regretting that Dark Coop didn't get to shoot Ray when he had the chance.
Regarding the New Location:
I...................think what might be being implied is that atomic bombs are another way to cross between worlds. That things can escape through in the apex of the blast.
Also:
Once we finally saw the face of that bug, it looked a hell of a lot like The Jumping Man, who is supposed to be back.

when nin was playing all i could think was "damn lynch is ballsy for just sticking this performance 10 minutes into the episode, it's going to be a weird transition from this"
and, well, i wasn't wrong i guess, it was a weird transition

I thought it was particularly striking how well the lyrics to the song suited a lot of the stuff going on in Twin Peaks right now.

with the caveats that i have no idea how this hour is going to integrate with the rest of the season and how literal some of the imagery is meant be taken, the only thing i didn't particularly care for was
the image of laura in that orb. it felt like it was trying to set up laura as some sort of anti-bob? laura as an element of a greater mythology is weird to me. honestly i hope they (and by they i mean frost) don't go too deep into the mythology, to me bob works best as albert's line in the original series, simply a manifestation of "the evil that men do"
that said, this was a gorgeous, insane, terrifying hour of television, and to me it stands against anything lynch has ever directed
simo on

All I know for certain is those guys are known as Woodsmen in the credits.
As were the dudes in the background of this famous scene:
I almost wonder if the blast may have fucked them up.

Uh. What if Andy is helping drugs get into Twin Peaks?
I'm not sure my heart could take that.
I think it's weird how

I really can't put it into words. It's just so above and beyond any level I can reasonably approach the show at.
I temper my expectations on everything these days.
Well this sure went off the fucking rails.

I almost laughed at that.
I'm 30 minutes in and that's all I can think
Regarding the New Location:

Confirmed
I think it's another thing.
