shows coming on an hour earlier from here on out
Oh yeah now weāre cooking with gas.
Yāall, this weekās musical guest KILLED me.
Also, does anyone know what the paper that Big Ed burned up during the credits was?
despite the literal previous episode having minutes on end of lady putting on a shoe and one second of dougie getting hit by a baseball, bringing back that godawful song is the first time i have truly felt like i was being trolled hahaha
For me the most intriguing single line of dialogue from this episode was Audreyās strange husband saying āAre you gonna stop playing games or am I gonna have to end your story too?ā What the hell does that mean? Is it just him being weird, or is he another creepy metaphysical being with powers of creation and erasure, or is Audrey still in her coma, or what?
seeing audrey like that is more than a little unsettling
I hate to be one of those cats who thinks Ferris Buellerās friend is dead or whatever. But I would not be surprised if Audreyās scenes are coma dreams. Something about the one-sided communication with the outside world, her weird inability to leave on her own, the demeanor of her husband, and even the set design with the old fashioned radioā¦
LYNCH YOU TROLLING MOTHERFUCKER
so my partner pointed out something to me that i somehow have not noticed
the theme has been very staticy through this season, and has slowly become more clrear with each episode
also, audreys reflection is different to how she appears in the scene? iām not sure i see it though.
something weird definitely happened with eds reflection at the end though
i also notice bobby said āwe found things from my dad TODAYā which doesnt fit in with the linear progression of the story so far, which sways me to the multiple timeline theory. or things are just out of sync⦠which must be true because last week we saw coop play catch, but in this weeks we see him come back from the bender
I have to admit I was carefully watching those mirrors behind Mrs. Palmer.
Wasnāt time super deliberate in the original series, which nearly every episode up to the unveiling butting right up against the previous? I have a feeling some of the scene shuffling has more to do with turning the ā18 hour movieā into hour long chunks, but weāll see. Stuff like the box/lodge escape scene sync demonstrates a pretty careful hand.
I think a staticy theme might just be your tv reception. and unless the show explicitly says otherwise Iām not buying any of the multiple timelines or alternate reality nonsense. and I donāt see how that would even work out storywise. I think any timeline weirdness is probably more on account of scenes being shuffled around to cut the thing into 50 minute segments. like the scene with dougie playing catch was stuck in just so we wouldnāt have a cooperless episode last week even though he didnāt come back from his mitchum brothers meeting until this episode. I just donāt think thereās going to be some ātwistā thatās like aha this was really what was going on all along. that just seems to be the default fan theorist take on everything.
I think we can take everything weāve seen at face value so far, except maybe audrey, but even there Iām inclined to think sheās just not well. in the still photos released for this episode there was one with her and charlie standing next to a door, charlieās got his jacket on. sometimes stills for later but similar looking scenes have gotten released, so maybe next week is a scene with them talking next to their door. maybe the week after theyāll walk out the door lol. I donāt know whatās going on there but itās a bummer seeing audrey in this state.
I was looking back at the trailers and the only footage in them we havenāt seen now is a weird shot of the staircase those bums were on, andy with a picnic basket, probably for their hike up to jack rabbits palace, and the scenes of cooper looking like cooper again. and thereās one shot where it looks like heās walking in either a very dark or the black and white place and he seems to be doing the douge shuffle next to the one armed man. maybe mike is taking him to see the giant and thatās how he wakes up? maybe the first scene of the show with the giant was how he wakes up, he didnāt have his fbi pin on there and heās got it in the scenes in the trailer where he looks conscious and functioning.
What about the reflection of Ed? There is clearly something weird going on there, and very deliberately so. This bit here:
Iām watching it on the internet. Listen to the theme in episode 2 (loudly) and then listen to the most recent one. Specifically when it does the shot over the waterfall. I aināt imagining this shit. I just listened to it again just then.
listening with headphones Iām not hearing anything different or any static. yeah thereās a weird thing with edās reflection. Iām not saying thereās not weird things going on in twin peaks, just that alternate timelines or plot twist long cons arenāt satisfying ways to think about them for me. didnāt westworld and mr robot already do that kind of thing anyway.
Iām only up to episode 8, but so far for me it seems like more of a Dunkirk thing where they are just presenting the different story threads at a different pace to each other for maximum storytelling potential.
For example it seemed to take a fair while for the Twin Peaks Sheriff office to get all that business with Cooper case evidence laid out and all that. Plus it all seemed to take place over one night despite covering a few episodes while other plotlines were progressing over multiple days.
Maybe weāre crazy, what do other people think
I donāt hear any clipping in the episode 2 I got and none of them sound as muted as either one sounds in that clip
