A classic “what the fuck” moment

*removes face* "do you really want to fuck with this???"

whenever i talk about twin peaks i think about people reading/hearing it out of context and chuckle to myself

Hahaha, absurd stuff isn't it.

I wanted to start binging S1 yesterday with the wife and the Shitflix doesn't have it in my country.

I really don't udnerstandthisregionlockbullshitc'mooooooooonn...!

Season 1 is my fave tbh, love all the humor in it

The scene with Major Briggs telling Bobby about his vision is so fucking good

The "we live inside a dream" moment from episode 17 of The Return, with Cooper's face superimposed on the screen, might be the scariest moment of the series for me. I find that moment to be so unexpected and unnerving. To me, Twin Peaks: The Return is the best season of television ever. I'd really love to get a season four, but, if this is the last of Twin Peaks, what a perfect way to end it. The finale reminded me of the last five minutes of The Sopranos times eleven, and that final Sopranos scene is my favorite scene from that series.

My band played at a twin peaks party gig once. We did a kinda shitty cover of the Laura Palmer theme. Wish I could go back and make that cover a little less shitty.

Album rules, I should listen to it more

Missed opportunity to play Just You

There was another band that did, dun worry

"She is also the spirit that posesses Sarah palmer."

Gotcha on everything else, but I'm a bit ropey on the timeline with this. If this happens when the insect thing crawls inside (presumably) past-Sarah's mouth in ep.8 then hasn't she always been possessed throughout the entirety of S1+2? And if this is a counter to the Giant's creation of the Laura egg, how can the Mother know who to possess before Sarah's even conceived Laura?

I now know potsy means, out of context those descriptions are wild haha.

The only thing I thought after ep.8 was that it was the best television I had seen for years

"Gotcha on everything else, but I'm a bit ropey on the timeline with this.

Don't think about it too hard. time doesn't work the same way in the black lodge/white lodge/red room.

"If this happens when the insect thing crawls inside (presumably) past-Sarah's mouth in ep.8 "

presumably, yes. the nuclear testing damages the fabric of reality allowing the mother to release the bob blob, a bunch of lesser spirits, and an aspect of herself (frogroach) into the world. bob immediately starts tormenting a young leland, as we know from the show the old man on his street who used to flick matches at him was possessed by bob. the mother immediately possesses the young girl who is most likely young sarah. they are compelled by innocence and their drive is to corrupt it and laura is created as the pure essence of innocence to strike a balance in the world. you see in that episode that the giant watches the nuclear testing and immediately created laura-orb and sends her to earth. so presumably laura's essence is there all along and the mother, bob, and laura all enter the earth at the same (relative) time. but that doesn't really matter because these spirits don't experience time the same way we do. the way time in season 3 starts to corrupt and disintigrate once dougie-coop comes back to earth but booper doesn't go back to the lodge (big no-no) illustrates this concept. also the whole "is it future or is it past" line and also laura whispering hints about what coop has to do in his ear etc. i dunno the time thing seems rather evident throughout the whole series. the mother and bob are likely preemptively positioning themselves close to Laura. They aren't unaware of future events the same way we are.

this all comes full circle in the end.

cooper and diane's plan is too use one of the weak spots in interdimensional space to travel to an alternate reality once cooper has saved laura and changed the timeline. in this reality none of the bad shit that has happened to laura has happened, she never became a martyr, she exists in complete ignorance of her purpose or of leland and sarah, and they plan to use this version of laura as a nuclear innocence bomb to destroy the mother. so they cross over to the other dimension and have their super awful sex scene because the mother (as evidenced by the glass box scene and other moments throughout the show) loves her some sex cuz sex = bad in lynch shi. this particular sex is especially potent because it's between diane and her rapist (sort of). so this act of joyless, terrible sex ritually draws the mother into this dimension where diane and cooper start to turn into their other dimension selves (richard + linda, which the giant tells coop to remember at the beginning of the season cuz this entire plan has been premeditated from the beginning) slowly and forget who they really are and what they are doing (diane much faster than coop). richard-coop desperately tries to finish the plan before losing himself entirely. he finds not-laura, and convinces her to come to sarahs house, which is now occupied by the alternate dimension cheffonts or whatever the fuck they are called (either the weird magician fam from the movie and from the creamed corn scene or whoever owned the house before them or something like that, my memory on all of that weird trailer park shit is hazy (p.s. red is presumably the little creamed corn boy all growned up)). this laura has a vision and hears the mother, now trapped in this dimension calling for her and her alternate reality history all floods back to her at once and basically sets laura-orb off like a fucking nuclear bomb and that entire dimension is obliterated.

so laura dies again, the mother dies, coop and diane sacrifice themselves in the process.

something like that

Not bad!

Dale Cooper: What year is this?
