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

Dougie was indirectly saying it was arson.

But yeah, Yellow Kid, that makes a bit more sense.

Plus, arson, fire, evil, etc.

Sizemore is in the pocket of Winkie's Guy so he must have lied about some cases being legit but screwed over the Mitchums by ruling that one arson.

BTW, everyone who said Bushnell figured out the Fusco Brothers were hiding something was right, as he mentioned "police involvement" in the scheme while talking to Dougie.

did this episode have the longest stretch of no MacLachlan at all...? Felt like we went something like 30 or 40 minutes before there was a scene with him in it, felt unusual.

high point of the episode for me was by far the sequence in Buckhorn with Cole waving his arms around at the air, dude's head getting crushed, creepy black lodge ghosts flitting about, the headless body. I find myself wondering a fair amount about where the Major's head is, when Dougie showed up with that box I was like "oh shit no"

My favourite bit of the ep might have been Dougie getting led into Bushnell's office with a cup of coffee just out of reach.

Seen a lightened version of the Woodsmen Gordon sees through the vortex and the paper on the wall seems to be the same as in the picture on Laura's wall in FWWM that Mrs Tremayne comes through the door in.

Haven't looked on dugpa yet but surely someone has lipread Diane and backformed the coordinates on the corpse from there.

Dougie getting led into Bushnell's office with a cup of coffee just out of reach

lol yeah that was great

Having him go into the middle of nowhere with a head-sized box read to me like more fucking with the viewers, or at least the ones who have seen a certain David Fincher movie

yeah my two thoughts were Breaking Bad and 7even

I like the theory that Diane isn't working with Bad Cooper but instead working against him and not being up front about it to Cole/Albert. Furthermore, the suggestion that Tammy may be untrustworthy due to her denial of seeing the man near the car.

yeah interesting divide on who did/didn't see things there. Not clear if Diane saw anything.

Might be important that when Bushnell says "dead" to Dougie, Dougie squishes his face and repeats "dead" just like Booper did when he killed Jack outside the garage.

Speaking of which, I need to rewatch the vortex scene - when they pull up at the farm (or is it The Farm?) you can see some buildings in the back beyond where Albert and Gordon see the Woodsman. They looked awful like the selfsame garages.

Diane clearly sees the Woodsman on his way to the car. No idea why she says she saw him getting out though.

The Woodsman phases in and out, I don't think there's any mystery to Tammy not seeing him. She's not looking in the same place when Albert and Gordon see him and she's over with the corpse when Diane sees him.

or is it The Farm?

it is not. the Farm is where Roth/JJL were iirc

I thought The Farm was where Booper was supposed to be going before he got shot, and he met Roth somewhere else? Maybe I'm misremembering when it got mentioned.

hm you could be right about that

Yeah it makes no sense - all I can think is maybe the arson case Sizemore was talking about was a different case than the Belushi Bros? Sizemore doesn't say the name Mitchum, he calls it "Littlefield". So maybe Sizemore was lying about that one, then Dougie's given all of Sizemore's case files and his doodles lead the boss to realizing that Belushi's case was wrongly called arson?

No no no no no. It's like this: there are two ledgers because one is doctored to make it look like the mill is going bankrupt so that when Catherine and ben burn it down it will look like Josie did it to collect the insurance but actually Josie is in on burning down the mill only with Catherine in it because Josie took out an insurance policy on Catherine so Josie and ben will collect the insurance money on both Catherine and the mill while blaming Catherine for the fire using the phony ledger as evidence of her fraud(?) but Catherine gets wind of this and

lol nice parallel

For those wondering about the pianist's non-Badalamenti bit -- I read some comments yesterday that it's New Order

Which song?

I think people on Dugpa mentioned it, will take another look...

Sub-culture apparently

Yeah. These lyrics were pointed out :')

What do I get out of this?
I always try, I always miss
One of these days you'll go back to your home
You won't even notice that you are alone

Sweet. The music in this show has been great. Even when it's been bad, it's been great.

NA OTM about the appalling Viva Las Vegas.

it was about as limp and soulless as the vegas strip actually is

the whole sequence dropped me right back into that singularly unappealing place, so much so that the gorgeous desert vista was a striking relief

It's like you guys have completely failed to notice that Albert's been munching Flamin' Hot Cheetos (and often exclaiming, 'Now that's flamin'!') through this entire thing.

tbh it's a stroke of genius to make albert grumpy about everything except his beloved flamin' hot cheetos

The piano song has one part that resembles the verse melody of Sub-Culture, but it seems a stretch to say it's a cover.

Wait, why were the casino brothers eating a balanced breakfast at 2:30pm!?

the relief i felt that it was 'only' a brutally maimed miriam crawling out of the woods in that first scene says a lot about this show

Because as Casino owners they probably work until 6am. Xp

Oh, right

it was a nice touch, that they're loaded and have a servant making them coffee, but they sit together on a tiny bench and eat cheap cereal.

hey buddy that’s not supermarket generic band, it’s Kelloggs

cereal seems incredibly expensive for what it is

pretty fun interview with Matthew Lillard here:

stop this

albert repeatedly talking about flamin' hot cheetos is a hoot, but tim the tool man taylor mid-opacity over the twin peaks opening sequence? that's just wrong

Last weeks episode put a bad taste in my mouth so I was a lil scared to watch this one, but wow it was amazing! I really hope that the woodsmen make more appearances, they're easily one of the best characters in the revival imo

but tim the tool man taylor mid-opacity over the twin peaks opening sequence? that's just wrong

even jim belushi would win in a poll against tim the tool man taylor

"Why were you late Candie?"

"There was so much traffic on the street... There were cars everywhere."

xpost

it's true

wilson against jim belushi, though, the matchup of the titans

wilson wouldn't have to remove his face, at least

:)

So does this tie into the increasing likelihood she's not just a space cadet, she's a Lodge Spirit like Dougie?

The lady in the traffic ranting at Bobby was very reminiscent of Mike shouting at Leland when they're stuck behind the truck in FWWM and she was desperate to get to a dinner she was late for, and to see people she hadn't seen in several years: "Around the dinner table the conversation is lively."

So does this tie into the increasing likelihood she's not just a space cadet, she's a Lodge Spirit like Dougie?

having her do the spaced-out thing right behind dale felt like deliberate blocking to me. it could be a red balloon herring though.

has it been mentioned that some feel Candie is Laura's Lodge version. Not sure what I think of that tbh

Why do more scenes of her acting like a space cadet increase the likelihood she isn't one?
