Part 9 - This is the chair (SPOILERS)

I believe the girls at the end are on whatever new drug is being used around town hence the "Red" rash.

YES YES YES

Ignore this I quoted myself instead of editing.

The American flag shot has to be the most overtly patriotic thing in DKL's career. I found it simultaneously moving and jarring. While his works are frequently obsessed with American ideas, ideals and culture, he rarely if ever addresses the idea of patriotism or even mentions the USA by name in his work. As many have noted, the show/franchise has always portrayed G-men with the old-fashioned sincerity of a Jimmy Stewart movie, and I believe that Eagle Scout DKL intended that moment to play as fully (or mostly) genuine. However, anyone who follows Mark Frost's Twitter has to wonder about his perspective.

I didn't read this as direct patriotism (or what I think you might be going for here; syrupy nationalism) on the part of Lynch, though that might be in there somewhere as well. I read it as part of another moment about rediscovering likes and significant imagery, delivered powerfully through Cooper's eyes (or as close as third-person filmmaking will allow). That was the second most moving Dougie scene for me after episode six's hypnotic, melancholy paper doodles.

isn't the thread marked spoilers? not sure what the special tag is but i'll edit
thx

You might have to edit this one too as you quoted the spoiler here. FYI It's only spoilers for the episode itself - i.e. you can discuss anything that happens in this episode even if someone else might not have seen it yet. Pretty much all other stuff (especially set stuff) is forbidden I think (unless by PM). BTW If any of that stuff is still on the web, can someone PM me a link?

I hope we get some small answers soon. I really need that to have this thing come full circle. I think a lot of others would agree.

Well, Bushnell said that he will start working with Dougie on answers tomorrow.

I like Bushnell - and seeing the boxer come out when he curled up his fist talking to the detectives.

So the the Las Vegas detectives will presumably find the real Coop's prints and DNA on the coffee mug. Will the FBI realize it's the real Coop because the ring finger print isn't backwards?

Dougie didn't exist before 1997? - Wonder what the car wreck is about.

On the rewatch re the shoes... I think it is not a recall for Cooper. Just the flag stirs something in him. The flashy red shoes on shapely legs guides his attention to the outlet, which also stirs something in his memory. (But I do think the red pump is a Lynch nod to Audrey, just not related to the plot of Cooper's awakening.)

I'll throw it out there...Johnny was running from Josie in that scene. Maybe he has the ability to see her unlike others. Though it didn't look like they were inside the GN. The Horne family did live in the hotel, right?

That whole scene was so odd and random.. Even for Lynch's standards. Maybe it was just used as a plot device to have both Ben and Judd's characters both grieving over loved ones dead and or very ill? Or maybe it was more but I'd be surprised.

[Jonah]

I'm guessing only the last 4 episodes or so will take place in TP - or Dougie/Coop returning there? Based on the pace so far and some of the upcoming episode titles. Maybe only the last episode! What does everyone else think?

The setting clearly reminded him of a day at the office.
Law enforcement office, American flag, secretary with Diane's shoes carrying case files, and freshly brewed coffee.

Yes, I think it's definitely a nod to the pilot, whether for Coop or not I'm not sure - but definitely a nod from Lynch (and maybe for fans). Did you see the Vanity Fair article yet?

[Mallard]

Jerry's talking shoe unnerved me more than anything else has this season.

Also, I did a slight fist pump when the opening to Night Bells played over the sheriff's station.

No idea why.

[yaxomoxay]

Has anyone mentioned 2:53 253 yards? Didn't the Giant mention 253 ?
