Twin Peaks (ABC) TV Show • Page 28

Several cameos in this one!

 

Anybody else think it's a possibility that Dougie's family was also manufactured?

 

It's Twin Peaks, everything's possible haha

 

at this point I might even believe that Michael Cera character is Agent Cooper's son.

 

Most definitely, something is off about the kid.

 

I like to think he's an actor Lucy and Andy are paying to play the part of their dead son who perished in a motorcycle accident

 

when Coop hears "agent" and repeats it wistfully to himself, my heart broke

also got major Frank/Blue Velvet vibes at the bar

Maybe its just me but... It's starting to get pretty difficult keeping up with the new characters so I was hoping maybe we could get a Cast of Characters type thing going, so this way we know who is connected to who

 

So many people on Reddit are saying Sonny Jim "blinked backwards" which didn't make much sense to me.

But here's a clip of the blink in the episode

And here is the same thing in reverse and it does look a lot more natural tbh. If this is true, then it's very likely he is an entity created by the black lodge.

I also think it's totally possible that it's nothing.

 

I dont think he blinked backwards. The actual Lodge blink is much more noticeable

 

Is it just me or does everyone seem strangely at ease with Dougie suddenly being a non-verbal blank who doesn't even seem to know what planet he's on? haha. I feel like it's implied that he was a pretty odd guy but everyone so far just seems sort of "uh, okay weird, but whatever" about it.

Not really a complaint, just strikes me as kind of odd. Not sure if I buy the "his whole family is a construct" thing yet but there's definitely something weird about Jim.

 

I haven't gotten that impression. Beyond the whole casino miracle, it seems like everyone is pissed off at Dougie. Literally every interaction he's had with anyone is a complete failure, they get frustrated with him or physically maneuver him into doing whatever he needs to do. He's been non-verbal for what--24 hours?-- and he's probably going to lose that insurance job ASAP.

 

I mean, they're more at ease with him than people would be in real life, but this is Lynch's reality so I buy it haha

 

There we go. I was thinking in terms of our reality, not Lynch's haha.

 

Also something interesting to consider that I read on AV Club about this episode

 

I seriously started laughing my ass off when all that build up was for his shovels.

 

Hahaha, oh god yes. I lost it at that whole bit. Aside from the prologue scene with the Giant and Cooper, Jacoby getting that shipment of shovels was the first scene of Twin Peaks' return. And it turns out they're just a gimmick item he sells through his Alex Jones Lite podcast.

 

And now, in retrospect, that incredibly long scene of him painting the shovels is equally hilarious.

Also that shot of Amanda Seyfried's face in the car was great.

 

so many conspiracies were created just because of him painting shovels

 

I didn't realize at first, but that's Mike who calls Shelley's daughter's boyfriend out on his resume.

 

Question regarding FWWM and the original series. Spoiler tags in case you haven't seen FWWM: My sister just started watching the original series for the first time and she has a lot of questions but it's been years since I've watched it so, are we ever made aware in the original series that Bobby killed that dude in FWWM?

 

Nope. As far as I know, it's only mentioned in FWWM and the Secret Diary of Laura Palmer

 

I lose it every time Dougie is around coffee.

 

It's because it's not Dougie, it's Coop,and his love of coffee is one of the only bits of himself he has left haha

 

Well, yeah.

 

What I loved most about this episode was Agent Preston looking at the photos of old Cooper and 'bad Cooper' while investigating fingerprints, as well as the throwback to Cooper and Bob in the black lodge.

Love those little nostalgic bits. Whole episode was great though, love how things are starting to unravel/piece together slowly.
