Drink full: The TWIN PEAKS 2017 spoiler thread, part 2

Already rewatched and there's something to what Evan R says... there's a distinct change in Dougie's intonation when he says "good pie" and "friend" at the end, both are deeper, more resonant, his face is sadder and seems more comprehending... I'm not totally convinced but I don't want to dismiss the possibility either.

^ despite all this teasing i hold out no hope whatsoever for dale being dale again. if it happens it'll be a nice surprise.

I guess Diane said she saw the man coming out of the car because if she said she saw him go in and didn't alert them she'd be implicated.

i mean… i agree, he even looked at the pianist with an actual facial expression, i just expect him to be shuffling vessel man in episode 12 xp

I'm also gutted that Lillard is out, his performance was great but what a way to go.

So since the wounds were the same as the couple watching the transparent box does that mean that the blackened men were responsible for that? Because the figures were not the same.

xp We know he drives a car at some point at least. I also don't think he's back to original form yet (he's displayed emotion a bunch of times already) but he's on his way

I think lillard got the gotta light treatment not the slashing treatment

Of course.

So that was Miriam in the opening scene?

Looked like it to me, didn't check credits

It was, yes.

the longer mr shufflepants goes on, the less i believe that promo footage will end up in the show, although i'd be delighted to be wrong

How in god's name can Peggy Lipton be 70 years old? She's hot af.

i mean for all we know he could be driving to the cherry pie shop for more cherry pie, muttering "cherry pie" the whole way xp

Peggy Lipton's ability to just cast a warm glow over a scene is really something

Having watched 11 parts of this show I'd be more skeptical that any shot footage was left on the cutting room floor.

She casts a warm glow over me and I'm a poof.

hope we get to see norma do more than catalogue receipts

this episode just LOOKED SO FUCKING GOOD, didn't it? It was, like .... burnished???

Random thoughts:

Shelley riding Becky's hood was a straight TJ Hooker moment, biggest LOL of the series.

I assumed the puking kid was another victim of Twin Peaks superdrugs.

Of course Shelley's dating the source of said superdrugs and the biggest psycho in town.

Norma's main purpose in the show is to shoot disapproving looks at Shelley and family every few minutes.

Sorry to ask question after question but does Bobby know/suspect that Red is the drugs man in town or is he only thrown by the fact that Shelly is in a relationship with someone else?

Also, there are lots of victims, dead bodies, and missing body parts lying in the weeds of vacant lots in Lynch's world.

But I mean we know it isn't gonna be that - you know that, right?

honestly i don't. i was exaggerating with the cherry pie thing obv, but dale driving a car + dale turning his head to look at something aren't really conclusive evidence that he'll be 100% proper dale again.

like, he might be 25% dale by the time we get to those shots, who knows

The footage will be in it. This show is billed as "Dale Cooper's odyssey back to twin peaks". That'll happen. I don't see it happening without him being compos mentis in some form or another. Whether he's "100% Dale" is another question (and not a dealbreaker for me either way tbh)

true

Btw this episode makes about 5 minutes of the doppelgänger in the last 3 hours

its hilarious to me that James may only have that one scene where he doesn't even speak (iirc)

I think he said something like "told ya it was a cool place" & the guy with him said "yeah it's the dogs bollocks m8"

I also think we'll see them both again

Took a look at Dugpa and someone suggests Dougie is reacting to D-sharp in that last scene -- apparently the same pitch as the hum in the Great Northern Hotel... "listen to the sounds"?

melting kid in the passenger seat prob gonna be in my nightmares it's cool

for some reason the honking was even more disturbing to me, or at least just as much. it was all disturbing. i don't know why i had it turned up on the headphones. O_O

I love this show so so so much

"There was so much traffic on the strip--it was incredible! There were cars... everywhere!

Any ideas about the fast panning shot down the corridors and stairs after Becky fires the shots though the door?

I like Maggie in the sherrifs control room.

The limo drive through Vegas was such a gorgeous sequence, random "viva Las Vegas" cover and all. Just gonna note again how cheekily lazy the music choices seem on paper, from Penderecki to the many overused instrumental hits to the first YouTube hit for "old school hip hop beat"

xp it was a great shot, I know that much

Zombie girl an echo of Becky, lurching around as if possessed, spewing bile on her mother.

Idgi

love the empathy and compassion in this show

Credit to Amy shiels, she brings the right amount of Lynch weird to that role. In lesser hands it would just be annoying

i assumed it was showing us they were downstairs but in a disorientating this-place-is-creepy sort of way, in line with the anxiety building through the whole first half hour.

…fwiw i'm less inclined to look for ~clues~ that i was in earlier weeks, more than happy for gordon to announce their meaning loudly in a later episode. in six weeks we'll have all the answers! (frost's next book notwithstanding)

*than i was in earlier weeks

next week's title is promising. i won't post it here but it can't not be significant, even if it's said by an extra.

That reminds me that we still have the unexploded bomb of that crappy Eddie vedder song that hasn't featured yet

Gersten Hayward appears to be sleazing with that sleazebag

also, Gordon's handwaving, jumping recalled the Jumping Man in the room above the convinence store, to me...

Another returning character we haven't seen yet!
