Part 17 In South Dakota, Gordon tells Albert and Tammy a secret he has kept to himself for years. Before he disappeared, Major Briggs shared with him and Cooper his discovery of an entity once called ‘Jiao Dai’, later called ‘Judy’, an “extreme negative force”. The trio had a plan to lead them to Judy, before something bad happened to both Cooper and Briggs. Phillip Jeffries, “who doesn’t really exist anymore”, told him that he was onto Judy before he disappeared. The last thing Cooper told Gordon was to do everything he could to find him if he disappears...

Recap: We begin with Richard and Mr. C driving through the night. Mr. C has received three sets of coordinates, and two of them match. He sends Richard to go check it out, as Jerry Horne watches them through some improperly utilised binoculars. As he reaches the exact location, Richard is electrocuted until he disintegrates. “Goodbye my son” Mr. C says, unfazed. He texts an unknown number ‘: – ) ALL.’ In Lancelot Court, Hutch and Chantal arrive to stake out Dougie Jones’ house. The FBI also arrive but find that no one is home. Meanwhile, Dougie is in...

Recap: In Twin Peaks, Nadine approaches Ed at the Gas Farm, having walked all the way from town with her golden shovel. She reveals to Ed that she has had an epiphany: she has been manipulating him for years and guilting him into staying with her, but now she wants him to be free. Once Ed works past his disbelief, he heads straight to the Double R Diner to find Norma. Once he finds her, as is always the way for this couple, they are kept apart by the arrival of Walter. As Otis Redding’s Montery Pop Festival performance...

Recap: In the offices of Lucky 7 Insurance, a conga line of the Mitchum Brothers, Dougie, Candie, Sandie, and Mandie enter to a bizarre off-beat percussion, much to the shock of Anthony, who believed they were going to kill Dougie. Instead, they give Bushnell some gifts, while a terrified Anthony hides under his desk and rings Duncan Todd to give him the bad news. For his failure, he now only has one day to kill Dougie himself. Back at Dougie’s house, the Mitchums’ gifts have arrived. Janey-E receives the gym set for Sonny Jim, as well as a brand...

Recap: We begin with Gordon, Albert, and Tammy, who are drinking wine and discussing the case. The two older agents decide to bring Tammy (and the audience) into the loop regarding the “blue rose” cases, with material that ties into what some of you may have read in Mark Frost’s book The Secret History of Twin Peaks. He reveals that in 1970 the United States Air Force shut down Project Blue Book (which really existed), their 20-year investigation into UFOs. They concluded that no credible evidence existed, which was a massive cover-up (the project continued in secret with Windom...

Recap: We begin with three children playing catch, the camera following the ball they throw. In any other show, this might be respite, but for Twin Peaks, we’re immediately on edge. There’s something about kids that feels even more vulnerable after the hit and run. Something isn’t right, but it turns out it’s for the better – Miriam is alive, crawling her way to help in bloody desperation. Becky desperately needs to see Stephen, so she rings Shelly to bring her car to the trailer park. Norma stands up after eleven episodes of sitting at the same table to...

Recap: First of all, Richard Horne turns up at Miriam’s trailer. He knows that she saw him fleeing the scene of the crime after he ran over the young boy, but tries to act innocent. She warns him to stay away, as she has mailed a letter to the Sheriff Truman informing him of what Richard has done. While she thinks that might protect her, she’s fatally wrong. Richard breaks in to her home, brutally beats her, then leaves the gas on with a lit candle to burn the trailer down. He rings up Chad, asking him to intervene...

Recap: Entirely unlike last week’s groundbreaking experimental experience, part 9 is pretty straight forward. In fact, it’s probably the easiest one so far to recap, right after the part 8 became known as “the one that broke recappers.” We begin where we left off (chronologically, anyway), as Cooper’s doppelganger is bloodied but otherwise fine, approaching a farm where Hutch and Chantal, who we last saw in Part 2, are waiting. Hutch, played by Tim Roth in another astoundingly small role for a big name, who has killed the owners of the establishment. Hutch treats Cooper’s wounds, gives him a...
