"Put the bat down, oh yeeeah!"

"Sure. Have you seen Wayward Pines?"

Yep. There's also the fact that his dad was arrested at a KKK riot in the 1920s and so bad at discriminating in his buildings that Woody Guthrie wrote songs about him. So there's not only a family history of discrimination, but there's likely a strong bit of Mel Gibson-esque "Honor thy father" going on.

I think of Frasier as the Wile E. Coyote of words. Frasier's preening antics were the Acme rocket skates that shot him off the social cliff of his life. The humor came from watching him construct a worse and more complicated situation around himself and wondering when it was going to be set off.

During the diner convo between Norma and her new beau, was I the only one who caught it as a meta way of throwing shade at all the various Peaks-clones over the years? That Twin Peaks uses real ingredients and love, but may not be profitable, while the copycats use cheap ingredients to ensure "consistency and

It was great when Morty's buff arm did the Hulk Hogan listening gesture in the Thunderdome.

It's all I could think of when Hawk is explaining the map and points out the corn to Truman, but then points out it's black, like it's death.

I think it's that the map is always current because events will replay themselves over time. We already see that in the series.

I still love Albert's, “Fruitcake, anyone?”

Got some interesting vibes in this one. The kids playing ball and discovering the teacher crawling through the grass felt of a piece with MacLachlan discovering the ear in Blue Velvet.

"Four score and seven years ago, the horse is the white of the eyes and dark within."

I just took it that it's a Scooby-Doo situation where some famous bunch of people have a breakdown passing through Twin Peaks and always end up putting on a show for the town.

Thanks.

It's a certain type of Mid Century style that I've never been particularly fond of, but he does have it well appointed at least. His den is nice and that kitchen…

Agreed, but something tells me that with Burgle having gone into DHS and Varga being flagged immediately and then having her surprise him by reminding him who she was, she had the upper hand. It just took patience and perseverance. Like Nikki said, life's a journey.

According to Varga, it's a step up.

I think the Rikers and Snickers thing is what will happen. Because Varga, if nothing else, is a continual liar. Gloria is not.

That's the source of his pain. He has no more reason to exist. He is no longer alive.

I think all of this is a little bit Jimmy Good - Chuck Evil kind of simplification.

Exactly. Chuck isn't apathetic towards Jimmy: he puts in serious time and effort to try to strip him of his ability to practice law. That's not a thing someone who is indifferent does, it takes passion. He, so to speak, loves to hate Jimmy. And, when he doesn't have that, we see he has nothing.
