The clock when Dougie got out the lift said 4.30? Richard Horne could be from the Richard and Linda puzzle.

Thoughts on the episode...

- Dougie scenes dragged on yet again. Going back to episode three after he left the casino they've been the longest and most drawn out... I really need them to end but I fear they won't. To be honest I would've rather seen Coop stuck in the black lodge and only focusing on Bad Coop with little snippets of real Coop trying to get out. Although I loved the casino stuff "Helloooo" and the stuff in the alternate world in episode three with him, Dougie has been a major downer for me in terms of time


- I agree with the comment on some of the Twin Peaks scenes feeling out of place... They weren't my least favorite and I didn't hate them just wanted to feel the skin more. Mikes scene at first I thought that was his kid. He seemed to know him well. Maybe there will be more to it but I also wouldn't be shocked if that was it for Mike.

- Norma and Shelly had a similar far away less personal vibe like the Horne's brother scene in episode 1. Maybe there's deeper meaning to that but I really want to connect with these characters not get a distant portrayal of their lives.

- Frank Truman's wife was horrible overacting. I was laughing but not so much with her. Felt like that was a bit overdone.

- Loved the Bang Bang Room bit and Jacoby's scene. Felt like classic Peaks moments.

- The Argentina and BadCoop scenes were very cool and left me wanting more!

- Would also spend way more time in Buckhorn than Vegas. Vegas just feels aesthetically the complete opposite of Twin Peaks universe. Even NYC has a grittier vibe to it. It's too bright! The work scene was colored like a CBS Thursday night comedy.

Overall I enjoyed parts of this episode and not others. Weakest of the five IMO but I still enjoyed it as a whole.
The milk will get cool on you pretty soon.

Just want to add - I liked the key being mailed scene too. On its way to Audrey I hope! That would be neat.
I have no idea where this will lead us, but I have a definite feeling it will be a place both wonderful and strange.

How was DougieCoop able to say "He's lying"? I don't think he heard anyone else say that to him. It definitely seemed like the real Cooper talking came through for a second.

Sounds like things are going so well for Harry Truman.
I don't know how he said it, but I did see a hint of green light over the liar's face/body indicating to DroolCoop that he was lying, evidently? I guess similarly to the Red Room bubbles in the casino?
Yeah, it seemed to hint at Coop's preternatural ability to see the truth, and it's still in there in him, somewhere. Sort of reminds me of the pilot (or Ep 1?) interview with Bobby, when Coop tells him flat-out, "You're lying".
Or it could be FBI training. Agents are trained to detect when someone is (probably) lying to them.

Good catch!

You'd think someone would know better than naming someone Richard Horne, aka Horny Dick. Maybe the name was chosen based on the person in charge of mens' fashions at Horne's Department Store.

Do we know what Ben's father or grandfather were named?

The clock read "911" when Dougie walked to the elevator.

- Exactly - they do feel very distant. Almost all these new TP scenes do.


- Awful scene. Worse than the weakest parts of Season 2, imo.

Or Audrey's! Also is this Richard of 'Richard and Linda"?
Timeline-wise I could believe it if she got got pregnant right after her plane ride with J.J. Wheeler!

Sure, but there was that flash of green light. It seemed to indicate to me more of an intuition -- something much deeper, at the core of his being.

That would explain his prints showing up at 16 different places/crime scenes..but wasn't the implication that they ran the prints on the dead torso and THAT would be Garland? Or did they say they simply found Garland's prints at the Davenport murder scene? Gotta go back and watch..
