The title of the deleted scene on the Blu-ray TPMP is "Buenos Aires / Above a Convenience Store."

Anyone able to say more about the statue?

It really reminds me of a giant version of a 1 32nd scale green plastic soldier that I used to play with in the 1970s..... that exact pose...

The uniform seems to be the US army Vietnam era OG 107 Cotton Sateen Utility Uniform:

I WISH OG 107 stood for Original Gangster, but in this context it is Olive Green!
So why is this seemingly Vietnam era statue at Dougie's workplace and why is Coop so struck by it?
Anyone remember anything about Coop's father from My Life My Tapes?

You know, I would love to see Confused Coop (the one people call Dougie) in Twin Peaks. They somehow find him and bring him back, and we see his brain-dead self interacting with all the townsfolk. Good be funny for a part or two before he regains himself.

Also, why is Sonny Jim sad in the car, does he hate school?

The statue was debated for quite sometime when photos of filming were released in the spoilers thread and I cant recall anyone having any idea at the time.

So, as far as I understand, we will get one part per week, apart from US holidays (this means it will last up to around mid September). Is there an official schedule somewhere? Do all 18 parts already have a title? I am really afraid they might stop at some point and restart after some months or even split it into two seasons. Does anyone have any info about this?

(EDIT: apparently Wikipedia says the last two parts will air on September 3rd, is there any more trustworthy source for this schedule? And do we have titles?)

Just some "obserpretations." Dougie/Coop (Doop) very much seems to act on intuition, which is directed from, or with help of, the One Armed Man: his dropped keys in Jade's car saved him from a murder, the extra-dimensial indications on the lucky slot-machines in the casino, and the green effect on the liar's face - Green seem to have a negative connotation; "the man in the green coat" in IE was also a cheat and a liar. Anyway, Doop craves for a wake-up from his tormenting sleep drunk status. Even coffee after coffee doesn't have any effect. Then finally he lingers for a long long time at that soldier/agent statue focussing on its shoe.

Yeah, "he's acting very weird" (Kyle is, Coop is) and t/his current unearthly state somehow, to me, reminds me on Leaving Las Vegas by Mike Figgis ... where "The whole year inn" for Ben (Nicolas Cage) becomes "The hole ye're in."

PS. Leaving Las Vegas is also about a man who lost "home."

))))))) This is James Stewart from the movie "The FBI Story" (1959)!)
(John Michael ('Chip') Hardesty (James Stewart) narrates the story of a murder, which the viewer sees in a....(!)FLASHBACK(!). Young Jack Graham (Nick Adams), takes out life insurance on his mother and plants a bomb in her luggage for a flight that she was taking from Denver, Colorado, to Portland, Oregon, November 1, 1955)
P.S.:
The Autobiography - of - F.B.I. Special Agent Dale Cooper My Life, My Tapes
As heard by Scott Frost
"...Above my bed on the wall is my most important personal item, a poster of.......(!) Jimmy Stewart......(!)... in the movie The FBI Story which only I can touch. I am talking into a Norelco B2000 reel-to-reel tape-playing recorder that I received as a Christmas present. I gave Dad a bottle of Old Spice and a pair of Totes, and Mom a nonstick spatula set..."

Don't think I've seen mention of this:

Anyone notice the swinging gate in Rancho Rosa?

I believe it's when the car thieves show up. There is a house next door to the Drugged-out Mom's place, with a swinging gate beside it. As the guys pull up in the car, the gate swings open, then a shot or two later it swings shut again. Because of the continuity, it looks quite deliberate.

does anyone know the name the music during the scene at the beginning of the episode where Dougie is looking at Sonny Jim and a tear comes to his eye?

It's a new Badalamenti track that hasn't been released yet.
This is - excuse me - a damn fine cup of coffee.

Perhaps the doctor Janey-E takes him to turns out to be Jacoby, who gives Cooper the opportunity to shovel his way out of the shit...
