While we're talking about Anthony, let's just appreciate how nice it is to see Tom Sizemore branch out from a typical villain role to something that's become more funny than threatening. Anthony's pouting outside of Mullins' office in this episode was hilarious and made him look like an upset or angry dog - I loved it! That just shows you the difference between TP: TR and the procedurals that it loves to subvert.

I bet that's *exactly* what happened. Didn't someone originally post someone who had helped LFB move and she said, "I'm not letting Donna go out like that." Can anyone dig up that post or drop? Nothing against Alicia but barely anyone is going to know she's a returning cast member. Imagine the epic reveal of Donna with Shelly's daughter's husband after that awesome camerawork down the hallway? It definitely feels like Donna was originally scripted here.

Have to say - I think LFB was right then if that's the case. Glad they didn't substitute Audrey for Alicia! (Though if she was raped in a coma by Bad Coop, then that's really shitty.)
I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.

That would've been a terrible idea. The reveal would've provoked laughter. There's no way.

I had to do a doubletake, myself. I thought they were the numbers for a second also. :)

I would love to have a GIF of Candie and the girls just moving, from the shot of them in this episode. Something about it, I can just watch it forever. So hypnotic in a Lynch way.

Didn't occur to me until now but, the montage of the Vegas strip had to have all been stock footage, right? I believe they didn't shoot anywhere outside of CA, WA and France.

They did shoot in Nevada.

Absolutely. I think the editors are trying to maximize the screen time in the town of Twin Peaks as much as possible, making sure we see the town and a variety of town characters in every part, so they're moving scenes out of order and using alternate takes of existing scenes (Norma at the desk in part 7, Jacoby's show in part 10) to accomplish this.

Did anyone else notice Becky and Steven were wearing the same clothes in part 10 that they are in part 11? They obviously chopped up this sequence as well. "I know what you did!" was very likely referencing Becky shooting Gersten's door so anyone reading anything else into it might as well give up now. I think moving this depiction of violence to part 10 worked really well immediately after the brutal Richard/Miriam scene.

Maybe like Audrey Horne? because she might be at comma?
That speculation is derived from the 3 queens of season 2 in the beauty contest. It is more things to remind Cooper who he is!

All this pointing to characters' outfits to determine the timeline is making me feel like a slob, having never seen a problem with wearing the same clothes for a few consecutive days (unless they smell, or I've sullied them in some way).

If they did shuffle these scenes around, I also think it worked well. The Becky scene this week was a great opening set-piece for the new episode.

Haha, no judgment here! I'm just saying, I know a bit of how TV editing works. Trust me that the scenes were shuffled around and reordered. TV costumers are also never going to dress the actors in the same clothes in two consecutive story/in-show days (unless the story explicitly calls for it) because it helps keep continuity for the production folks and the audience alike.

Link? I definitely don't think they shot in Vegas/on the strip, anyway. And there would likely be a Nevada Film Office credit at the end of the episodes.
