If they could CGI Cooper's abs, then they surely would have CGI'ed in the proper phase of the moon.

Count me in the group that I thought Diane would be a little more craftier ...staying two steps ahead of all around her. I get that plot wise, the FBI Boys have to be on to her, but it would be interesting if she kept catching on to their being on to her and constantly changes how she communicates with the mysterious contact.
God, I love this music. Isn't it too dreamy?

Interesting. I am hoping there is a good explanation for how easily the FBI is on top of her every move, especially since she seems to be involved with the zone. Maybe she is just not that bright. Her job was transcribing field agents' notes and getting them coffee, right? I guess a clue that she is competent and intelligent would be if Gordon and Albert start sexualizing her.

I am shocked at the reaction on here to "cole's girl" - I ADORED that scene. That was the funniest scene of the new series for me.

The only part I didn't like was the Nadine / Jacoby scene. As others have noted, it was a recycling of previously shown material.
I also love this part -- not episode -- and I think people should ask themselves, take the next step in the thought process, and ask themselves why the Jacoby scenes might be "recycled" n terms of story and theme?

Instead, for some reason, people assume this is some kind of mistake. Try beginning with the possibility that it's intentional, and you begin to see that intention.
To be clear, I don't see it as a mistake, and I don't doubt it's intentional. I just didn't like seeing the same thing again - I wouldn't have minded as much if it didn't go on for as long as it did.

This 100%
I've seen people talking about the moon phases on Twitter as well, and I agree, I wouldn't put any stock in it.

Yeah, you're right. It's hard to imaging David lynch putting any thought into such a small detail as the phase of the moon. :lol:

Uh, OK, lol. Go about your business then my friend. I'll be thinking about the similarities between Candy and the French Woman.

I'm not totally in board with Audrey is inside a coma dream theory.

But since people seem to love all these alternate reality theories, I was wondering if anyone has suggested that this entire show so far has been inside Audrey's coma dream. After all "we live inside a dream ".

Personally I think the closest thing to an alternative reality going in Twin Peaks. Is the Lodge Red Room stuff. And that's it.

Has anyone theorized that Audrey is a Doppelganger? Perhaps Evil Cooper's visits were really about getting more doppelgangers in key places (why Audrey would be key, who knows). Hopefully the real Audrey and Diane are safely tucked away in a Lodge if that's the case.

(this is what's called throwing a theory at a wall)

this theory would be most welcome because if not...i don't see anything redeeming about the character anymore ....miserable human
