Can't really disagree. Imagine we'd had that scene two or three episodes ago, everyone complaining about wasting ten minutes on the fireman story, then the Giant comes on today and introduces himself and everyone loses their poo poo.

I haven't bought much into the theory that this season is Audrey's dream while she's in a coma. That's mainly because she appears so late in the season. For now, it's hard to recontextualize the whole thing into something meaningful from her perspective. However, one thing stands out, in my mind, that lends some credence to this theory, and it is that I can believe that Tammy Preston is the FBI agent Audrey would have imagined herself becoming.

So they arrested the lovely cop and put him in a cell in his uniform and we the audience know he's a poo poo but we don't know what he did and nobody will say they just say "what is this about" and "i think you know" and he goes away exactly like a guilty person would. Did I get a phone call and miss something or is that the scene?

He ate his lunch in the conference room even though he knew that he wasn't supposed to. They all saw it.  Oh, and he also stole the letter Heidi's clone sent to the sheriff. I quite enjoyed the British bloke's glove story. It's way more entertaining to imagine him fighting with the clerk over a single rubber glove than it is hearing one half of a phone conversation about people we don't know.

It's already been said: We, the audience, had Chad under our own surveillance the past few months, and we know he is quite guilty. Do we really need a "Sherriff's department keeps deputy under surveillance" storyline to believe that the other cops have had similar opportunity to observe Chad? Chad is not very subtle about his corruption. Witness the "No smoking" scene in the Roadhouse. I think having Chad under arrest is the first step towards the Sherriff's Department discovering Red. And I think it means Bobby is now on a collision course with Red. Especially considering Red's involvement with Shelly, who Bobby obviously still has feelings for, he collides with Red in two different ways. My first thought, after watching the most recent episode, was that Freddie and his glove would help defeat Red and his coke wizard martial arts. But after so many others have suggested that the green glove is for arm wrestling, I think they're correct. Until recently, I thought that this season was definitively the end of Twin Peaks. So I had expected many storylines to have definitive conclusions. Lately, it seems that a forth season is not impossible, but merely "undiscussed". So my expectations for how many storylines will be resolved in the finale are severely lessened. Edit: I hope Chad was arrested for mail theft.

Huh, so if Bowie's voice was changed, I wonder if we'll hear more from him. Perhaps voice was changed so that another actor could play him, and real voice vs fake voice in one season wouldn've been recognizable? Wouldn't surprise me, since, as people said, Jeffries is way too important of a character to just never appear in any way.

GoldenGun posted:Overall a good episode, but that scene with James and the other security guy was extremely weak. The guy provides an exposition dump out of the blue that conveniently connects with the thing Andy experienced just moments before, to set him up as an important piece of the puzzle in the laziest way possible. It also makes things disappointingly literal and straightforward, with the Fireman acting as a kind of deus ex machina nudging people into the right place when needed. I felt a similar way, albeit I quite enjoyed both the scenes. It's funny how this show, for all the vagueness, mystery and suspenseful drawn out pacing, really hits you over the head with plot points when it wants to be explicit about moving it forward.

People with normal brains don't seem to cope with the lodges as well. Well, I was sleepy but I swear I could hear those lines from Dale Cooper mouth and it made perfect sense has something he would say, not Andy. Then in the scene at the cells he still seems.. different. Smarter, braver And no, it would't mean another Cooper: for all we know, Dougie is empty, Cooper soul can be still stuck on the black lodge, and now inside Andy. Or maybe not, but I will believe it until proven otherwise One thing I dont understand is why Sheriff Thruman told Cole about 2 Coopers and the Laura Palmer found pages, but not about all the rest

It's pretty cool that the White Lodge and the Black Lodge are in agreement that Booper needs to go the gently caress home.

It was a good scene and his delivery was pretty funny regardless of context. It was probably closer to the Wally scene than anything else in the show and that ruled too. On spoiler stuff, I don't think it's even possible to really spoil this show if you're talking generally plot points. I can't imagine anyone reading "Lucy and Andy's son comes to town" would have expected what we got. That speaks to how strong the show is, it's not possible to get the same experience reading about the plot. A True Jar Jar Fan fucked around with this message at 13:31 on Aug 15, 2017 |

Dougie has Freddie like grip strength too. Maybe Freddie is gonna shake hands with Dougie and the residual heat from so much grip strength is going to be enough to turn the Earth into a newborn star.

hawowanlawow posted:The glove guy was cool, and phrases like "exposition dump" and "tell don't show" make me cringe Thing is, any one of us can imagine how any "typical" modern-day show or movie would handle all the exposition and story delivery given in scenes like - Cole and Albert telling Tammy about the Blue Rose investigation - Truman and Hawk arresting Chad - Green glove guy telling his story I mean, we can think about how these scenes would look in a Breaking Bad or The Wire or any number of other shows—we can imagine it without any effort. There would be dramatic reveals, there would be flashbacks, there would be incidental music. It's so obvious how other shows would do it, it's almost ludicrous to think of not doing it that way. And yet Twin Peaks thinks nothing of doing exposition in this offhand, on-the-nose, almost insultingly direct way. It flies so directly in the face of what we've come to expect a "typical" show to do that it can't possibly be unintentional, right? Either it's this way because David Lynch lacks the filmmaking and storytelling skills of a middle schooler, or ... he's better than any of these "traditional" filmmakers who do it the "right" way, and he's doing something so outré and so beyond any of them we're never going to understand it no matter how many panels down the expanding-brain meme we are. I honestly don't know what to make of it. I'm just along for the ride, and lord knows if nothing else it's refreshing to see the mold being broken with such complete and utter confidence in itself, so we know it's not just this way by mistake. It's baffling, and it's fun to be baffled. It's nice to know things can still be baffling.

Mike said Booper screwed everything up and that now one of him or Dougie need to die but then Booper got shot and did die but came back sooo it's kinda hard to predict whether or not the end for Booper will be being sent back to the Lodge or him actually being destroyed. Also he's still technically harboring Bob which I assume will be mentioned again before the end.
