the great thing about twin peaks is you never know when you're gonna be walloped in the head by a randomly extremely emotional and earnest moment.
And then immediately followed by WERE THE FBI! This. Is what. We DOOOO.
The last, closing scene of "Fire..Walk With Me" ... ... It wrecks me. This story is the great American tragedy.
... 😭😭😭
😞😞😇
Maybe Not a vision but a sight of actual future events Bobby became the man his father always hoped for.
I agree my same reaction
But just be glad you are. Unless…
Major Briggs is truly one of the most resonating characters. He initially seems to be your typical military type -- austere, no-nonsense, practical, unemotional, overbearing in fatherhood. But boy are those notions turned on their head and you get this beautiful man -- full of poetry, open to the mysterious, tender, just unexpectedly complex. A truly marvelous portrayal for a character who doesn't get a lot of screen time
Maj. Briggs is a deeply philosophical man.
Yes! He reminds me of a true stoic. Firm in his mission but not without tenderness and access to the common man. This is one of my favorite films in all cinema
Read The Secret History of Twin Peaks as it dives more into his life
The only person in the show who's been to the White Lodge.
god i know. i feel like something was cut from the show with his character.
Always felt this was one of Twin Peaks’ finest moments
I think it's my favourite scene in the entire show. The problem with Cooper was that he never fully trusted his visions, he was so good at piecing events together that his ego was too big so he always had to try to figure things out himself. That's the point of Dougie Jones I think, it's Cooper essentially with his will removed so he has no choice but to go with the visions. Yet Major Briggs, despite his vision seeming so unlikely, simply decided to trust in it and believe in his son. It's a really well written speech too.
It's my top 10. Incredibly wholesome and beautiful
I'm sure an actor as experienced as Don Davis knew that he was looking at pure gold when he got the script for this episode. He really knocked it out of the park here. RIP Major Briggs.
Damn fine moment
@@yt8co Do you realize the intuition from Cooper IS our intuition as viewers of the show, and Major Briggs represents Mark Frost, right? So Cooper isn't always right because we don't know everything about Twin Peaks, and Briggs is right and knows about everything because he actually wrote the show himself.
I like how Bobby goes to "great here we go" to tears......
I love that too. He goes from rolling his eyes over his dad going off again to having this transformative spiritual experience. The only reason this scene even works is because Major Briggs talks in such a strangely archaic way and only a man like this could possibly transmit such a profound and ineffable message when you least expect it
This scene is just an absolute masterpiece. Each time I watch it, Bobby's "Really" is what breaks me. Bobby's shock that he's worthy of both forgiveness and a chance to redeem himself gets me every time. There's also something beautiful about the Major shaking Bobby's hand after. A subtle way of saying that while Bobby isn't the son from his vision yet, he knows Bobby will be. They aren't ready to embrace and become one, but they finally have a connection. Excellent work from Davis and Ashbrook both.
When I first saw this scene all those years ago I thought Bobby was goi g to laugh and walk away like he had done previous times when talking with the major
"Worthy of forgiveness" absolutely fantastic.
@@SpecialOrder935 Yea, at first I though it was sarcastic. So glad I was proven wrong though.
it hards harder knowing he murdered someone for Laura's too lol
"Jesus Christ"
"...The mind revealing itself to itself."
This man speaks in poetry.
Truly does
Poetry - and dreams - are the language of the soul.
"A reunion with the deepest wellsprings of my being"
That's as true as it can get.
The deep satisfaction in experiencing acceptance from one’s own father, a feeling many of us, myself included, surely will never know, is I think one of the reasons we all are so profoundly moved by this scene. To have a father that would so clearly and deliberately offer his love to his child as depicted so beautifully in this scene is likely a dream to many of us. I strive to be that kind of father to my kids.
There's so many degrees of separation between my life, and any experience that could relate to this moment. No father, no acceptance, no love, no life, feelings silenced and dulled by depression and trauma. And yet, Dana Ashbrook's powerful, nearly silent acting is able to convey just a fraction of that emotion, even to me. He damn well better have gotten an award for that role.
Yup, couldn't agree more. This is exactly what every son wants to hear his father say. Notice how things like strength, career, or even romance come up in Major Brigg's dialogue. He isn't saying "you will be a great man," he's saying "you will be a happy and content man." Garland's vision doesn't put any expectations on Bobby, it just tells him his life will be fulfilling and happy, which is something so many fathers neglect to assure their sons about.
I am lucky to have a supportive father, but so many of his supportive talks have placed expectations on me, assuring me that I will be successful in life. Sometimes I just want him to say that I will find a life worth living.
I know exactly how you feel. Every year my father takes me out to eat for my birthday, he tells me that I only have a few years left before it's "too late" to make something of myself.
He says I have until I'm 40, and then it's over. I can't imagine ANY FATHER saying that to his son, so it doesn't only hurt, it confuses me. They tell you they love you, but you don't feel it.
Now he's trying to reach out to me, begged me to come see him on Christmas...but I'm always afraid of how he'll make me feel so I just didn't go. And I STILL feel guilt over it.
@@thedrewdog I know it probably wouldn’t make a difference, but maybe tell him why you avoid him. Maybe it would change his behavior. I’m sure you’re probably doing just fine, and even if you’re not, your worth isn’t what you do or how productive you are. Your worth is simply a result of that you exist.
thank you Brian.
I love how the first episode of the show makes it seem like Major Briggs is your stereotypical hardass military father... and it turns out he's one of the most pivotal characters to the plot on top of also being one of the most complex and nuanced.
The only person in the show who's been to the White Lodge.
Season 2 really did great things for his character. IIRC, there wasn't all that much to him in s1.
"This was my first *return*, a reunion with the deepest wellspring of my being."
chills.
I snapped my head up when i heard that lol
Don Davis fucking killed this. God-tier writing delivered fucking perfectly. It almost feels like all pretence of it being a show is dropping away and this is a letter a father wrote to his son.
There's something about Don Davis that just feels special. Same as General Hammond in SG-1. Such a great character and he played it so so so well. RIP.
“The pretense of it being a show dropping away”
I got that feeling from watching this as well
Interesting how the people in the background are holding completely still, it adds to the surreal nature of Twin Peaks, the best TV show of all time.
This! I saw this szene here many times. Very impressive. But the people in the background.... scary....
Wow I didn’t notice that that’s so creepy
Ooooh cool.
There's a scene in _TNG_ where Picard flashes back to (actually, relives) a time when he is stabbed in a bar fight as a young man, which the episode ("Tapestry") had established turned out to be pivotal to how he lived his life from then on. I eventually noticed that in that moment, camera following him as he sinks to the floor, all the other characters in the bar are now still, even the other combatants, just watching, not stunned or horrified, just watching, as the music swells. It's magical.
Actually, they are moving a little bit. If you watch very closely
Cant keep a dry eye through this scene. One of the best ever written and acted on television.
I agree! One of my favorite Lynch-directed episodes. I heard a Q&A with Dana where he said David told him something very special that made him tear up that got him ready to act in this scene.
@@kdiamond when I first saw this scene I expected Bob to yell at his dad as he had been known to do on the show. But to see Bobby tear up (absolutely terrific acting from Dana), told me that up until that point I had understood nothing of Bobby's character. And I love this scene for that.
@@vanhopecomedy The Father/Son relationship runs deep.
same here, with the music it is just so beautiful
"we embraced a warm and loving embrace- nothing withheld" breaks me EVERYTIME
I think this was the turning point in Bobbys life
I don't know if Lynch did this intentionally but I love how season 3 ties in with this scene. Major Briggs almost has a moment of foresight as to how Bobby's future is going to turn out (his dream arguably containing imagery from the White Lodge) - sure, Bobby has "issues" in season 3, but he works a good job and seems to be relatively happy, not unlike the dream the major had. Either way I'm glad they gave Bobby a relatively happy ending; he got to escape the whole situation involving Laura with his sanity intact and, most importantly, his life.
The music is also either the same or very close to the scene where they visit Bobby’s mother in season 3.
Interesting. Major Briggs is so clever and his knowledge and workings are classified. He deals with other worldly intelligence. As a matter of military intelligence and defence he has to calculate and anticipate how non humans think. The dream may have been real. I want it to be real. But Major Briggs could have calculated precisely what type of speech might inspire and motivate his son as an eminent and detached psychologist might. A moody teenager is apt to reject anything from a parent when the teenager is hostile and emotional and suspected of major criminality-- especially when the parent personifies the authority of the state. The writing enables Major Briggs to get the son's interest before it becomes clear it is a story about them. Major Briggs never mentions anything negative about his son or that an improvement is needed. Instead, he plants a seed about his son's already successful future life which implies the son had dealt with those issues Major Briggs didn't have to mention. Like Dr Jacoby, Major Briggs can reach Bobby quickly if the right words are employed strategically. It's a real stand out scene in a series which genuinely is full of great insightful writing upon revisiting 30 years later by someone the same age as Bobby.
David lynch works in mysterious ways
Confession: I was on the edge of tears when Bobby first appeared on the screen in Season 3 because you could immediately tell that he'd grown into a man that the Major would be proud of.
This is one of the few episodes Lynch directed in the original series, so probably. S1E1 ,S1E3, S2E1, S2E14, and the season 2 finale are all jam packed with ideas Lynch would further expand upon in the return. I wish he couldve had more control over the original series tbh
I think what gets me is the handshake. Major Briggs knows Bobby is distanced from him and ignores him a lot and can't stand his talks so he shakes his hand to show him affection that he does care and has faith in him. You can see Bobby holding his dads hand tightly, not wanting to let go. Their relationship isn't in the best spot, but Bobby does love his dad and you can see it in the handshake. Not wanting to let go
Every young man harbors doubts and insecurities about their self-worth. Bobby especially after all the horrific things he had gone through with Laura Palmer.
That's why it's so critical for any young man to have a father that loves and encourages them. This is the moment where you can tell Bobby gets set on the right path.
Imagine being told something as important as this
Every emotion in this seen is startlingly real.
How Bobby begins the scene with indignation and angst, but is completely disarmed by the end.
The extras in the background are eerily and unusually still and silent. Makes it feel like we’re in a timeless, elevated place - a place of insight which the Major glimpsed in his dream…
This is simply an otherworldly moment in American media
Understatement of the century. Arguably the best scene in television history.
19.1 million people watched this episode. That's quite a large audience who tuned in, and heard this amazing speech
This entire show was miraculous
To me, this is the most beautiful moment in television. Ever.
Not just one of the finest moments in Twin Peaks, this is one of the greatest scenes I've ever seen. I routinely come back to this, and it has taken such a stronger resonance after the passing of my mom last year, who was my sole parent as I never knew my father. Her last words to me were "don't be afraid to live your life".
Great words!
Its beautiful isn't it
Im sorry to heard that friend, wish you the best and happy life
I remember this, saw it the night it aired on ABC. the instant I played this clip, today, tonight I was right back there.. I wished then that my father had the courage to speak to me, to speak to me like this.. I wish he knew, how much I wanted to here heartfelt honestly like this. The actor playing the son, Bobby.. you can see in his eyes what these words words say to any man that has been a son.
Thank you if you reead this. I'm 55 and I still miss my Dad.
God bless you.
I've quoted this speech in my wedding vows and have used the "I wish you nothing but the very best in all things" at another wedding
You Hack.😂 You better have given David Lynch credit.
Mark Frost wrote this one, I think. @@kgpspyguy and no I didn't give credit 😭
@@kgpspyguyhe gave Marshawn Lynch credit instead 😢 source: I was at the wedding
Bobby eventually became an outstanding police officer and one of the most beloved members of his local community. He would have made his father proud.
Yep, just wish Briggs was able to see it.
@@theepicduck6922 I think that the symbolism of the vision is that he doesn't need to have lived to see it, he feels a certainty (sealed with a handshake) that it WILL happen, and it does. Perhaps the dream is a metaphor for the afterlife, finally embracing his son when Bobby himself passes someday.
@@MonsoonMoonrockI just watched this episode today and I had that same thought
@@theepicduck6922oh he saw it. He’s seen it all. Hence this speech, and the items left for Bobby in season 3. If the major is out there outside of time with Philip Jefferies, the Fireman etc, then he’s seen it all.
I’ve wondered, taking the context of FWWM and The Return into account, if the Major’s speech to Bobby in this scene is a vision of a time that will one day come when he and Bobby are reunited once more, perhaps in some sort of afterlife, or even the White Lodge. It’s an unformed thought in my head, like a lot of my ideas about what Twin Peaks means.
He totally stuck his son with the bill 😆 and Bobby was too blown away by the story to notice.
Well played, Major.
lmaooooo
LMAO 😂
Damn, this makes me want to memorize the monologue and pull this on a friend.
Don Davis was so good in this role.
I like to think this was the moment that set Bobby down the path that leads him to where he is in S3: from the bad boy to a good man trying to do the right thing.
It was a wonderful, and natural, character evolution: To go from a directionless delinquent to a self-assured member of the Twin Peaks police force.
The contrast between the character you think Major Briggs would be when he was introduced with the character he turned out to be is one of the most characteristically amazing aspects of this show.
This scene made me cry so hard. In particular, I think it's because my father left when I was 5 so I never got to hear this speech from him.
I love the duality of formality and sincerity. David Lynch truly understands and can convey duality so well
"Exceptional, as always"
This is one of the most powerful scenes in the show for me, in television really.
I kept expecting it to be undercut by some dumb joke or for Bobby to interrupt, but for it to actually play out 100% seriously, in a beautifully constructed speech, oh man I love show.
A wonderful curve ball!
Absolutely gorgeously immaculate writing; it is also awesome that Bobby's usually frustrated character had the maturity to sincerely listen to & appreciate his father's story.
hank being a horse's ass really sobers you up quick after garland's speech.
Yuppppp. I would have loved to have seen the Log Lady tell Hank just that. For example:
Log Lady: "Hank?"
Hank: "Yes, Margaret?"
Log Lady: "Could ya shut up? You sound like a horse's ass"
Hank: *rolls his eyes and walks away deflated* 😂
@@FreakinRican6969 Davey missed an opportunity there - I'm always going to envision that as the ending from here on! :D
@@nataliealtemose9191hahaha right? Log Lady was a legend
RIP Catherine Coulson
Unbelievable. Such a kindness. And the son very much needed to hear this from his father, as he was tremendously lost with no knowledge of what it even feels like to have a direction. And, he grew up to be a wonderful man.
Always feels so good to go back and watch this.
The moment hits you like a thunderbolt.
Knowing what Bobby has had to do, especially considering FWWM, he needed this so badly.
Turning point for Bobby 100%
In my opinion, this is one of the top 10 scenes of the whole series. Still makes me cry to this day. It's so wholesome and beautiful. I've never had a son, and I never really got a chance to know my father, but I loved him and wish we could've had a moment like this. I had the privilege to raise one of my nieces. And I am proud I have something like this with her
This is by far the scene that impacted me the most from this glorious show. Even influencing my personality and way of thinking.
I continue to be amazed and so pleased that this scene, that has so resonated with me, has clearly resonated with many many others. I didn't realize when I uploaded this ten years ago (!) how many people had a similar connection.
"Became a knock at the door"...*greatest pause in the history of acting*... "My son was standing there"
If my dad were still here, I can only hope that he would think this of me.
This, for me, is the finest scene in the whole of Twin Peaks. A Father tells his Son that he is a good person, in spite of his prior actions and Bobby’s evident torment - even though of course we didn’t fully know the reasons behind it at that point. Just magnificent.
When watching this, I’m reminded of a line from my favorite movie, the 1984 film Amadeus. When Salieri recalls experiencing Mozarts music for the first time, he states that the music was “filled with such longing, such unfulfillable longing.”
That specific line has been driven deep into my brain, because I relate. I lost my father at nine years old to a brain aneurysm. My last words to him were something along the lines of “please don’t go. I don’t want you to die”
He and my mother were leaving for an anniversary vacation to Cancun and I was so scared of them leaving. They’d never been away from my brother and I longer than a day. And my worst fears were realized after I heard what had happened from my mother.
A scene like this will forever resonate with me. It’s extremely powerful, and just like Mozarts music, I too am filled with such longing. Just to hear my father speak my name one last time. To hear him utter even a single syllable, would give me the greatest comfort and peace I’ve ever known.
What a beautiful scene between father and son.
What makes Hank the scariest human character in all Twin Peaks to me is that with everything he gets up to in this moment he genuinely seems to care what Major Briggs thinks of the pie. I don't know if I find it more disturbing for this murderer to be that effortless at portraying cheerful humanity or if it'd be worse if he really means it.
I haven't seen the show, but most people aren't 100% evil or malicious, we all have good and bad aspects of ourselves right?
You need to see the show man, trust me.@@nickysimi9866
I remember watching this scene when I first saw Twin Peaks on Netflix, I think I was 16. Being so young, I found this scene really particular but I couldn't really put my finger on why I felt that was the case. It stuck with me. I think the idea of the Major having a "vision" and communicating it with such candor to his son, who listens intently for the whole scene, and then the scene just ending, struck me as exceptional, given the exposure I'd had up until that point with popular media like other tv shows and movies. It was surprising and particular. It also felt almost cheesy to me, but also mysterious, such a strange mix of emotions.
Now, I am still kind of young and not much older, but my sense of what life may entail has certainly deepened. I feel such a great sentiment of love coming from this scene. It really is beautiful. David Lynch says Eraserhead is his most spiritual film but I find this scene so spiritual and ironically, kind of an affirmation of fatherhood and the relationships we may have with other people, how integral that is in the realization of some sort of paradise or return to some higher state. Like a piece of music feels such a relief from coming to the tonal center. I am getting kind of schmaltzy but I still find this scene exceptional because it appeals to some universal subconscious place that is hopeful and joyous.
Well said. This scene has always stuck out to me for the same reasons. It doesn't feel like anything else on TV or even in the series itself. The way the Major, who has the roughest of exteriors, has no problem being so vulnerable as to communicate maybe the most personal thing we have - a dream - and share that meaning with his son, who is always on guard, and having those walls shatter, is just so heavy. I think we all wish we could have that kind of relationship with our parents or loved ones. Total acceptance and love and honesty. Those are real tears in Dana's eyes, which makes it even more special.
The way they set up Hank as someone you really dislike immediately after (at the end of this clip) is pretty masterful too. Briggs has the most heartfelt, wise, profound conversation with his son that you could imagine - then Hank patronizingly salutes him, before sneering at him after he turns his back to leave.
I always come back to this
This scene brings tears to my eyes. Every. Damn. Time.
"It was my return..." THE RETURN
each time i watch this, i start to cry
I love how he holds the monotone voice, yet somehow conveys profound emotion. Everything about this scene is perfect.
I hope no one minds me saying this but I wish men could talk this way to eachother in actual real life.
I wish my dad had spoken to me about his deepest hopes and dreams, his thoughts.
He tried in his own way but it wasn’t a flow of emotional words like this from the Major. It was always cryptic kind of.
It’s been that way with every man I’ve spoken to in my life. Even I have this same mannerism. I keep my emotions and my thoughts to myself.
I try to show gratitude, pride, love and faith to my friends, family and colleagues but it’s always in a measured, tactical way.
Sometimes I wish I could see my dad again and just let the words come out like a waterfall.
I’ve a reputation of being a bit effeminate due to how I talk, write or interact with others. I can see it too. There’s a strange feeling inside like a raw instinct, to keep it locked down. Don’t be a drag on people. Don’t be over emotional. Don’t embarrass yourself or anyone else. Be quiet.
Maybe one day men will learn to be more openly affectionate to eachother or even just honest about how they feel inside.
I know a lot of us feel lonely, solitary and a bit down about it especially around people. It would help so much to be able to talk.
I keep meaning to try and be the one to change and hopefully inspire it in others but you know how it goes. You just keep it inside and be just ‘nice’.
Sorry for rambling. Hah
Briggs is talking about the White Lodge. He was "born and raised there" but hadn't been there in a long time, meaning he had done the things the world asked of him, like soldiering in war. When the events surrounding Laura's murder behan to unfold, he was called back to the White Lodge, to use his abilities in the service of keeping the world safe from the Black Lodge. And his son was there. He saw that Bobby had a role to play in that mission as well. 20 years later, we see Bobby as a Sheriff's Deputy, knowing what lurked in the Black Lodge and ready to confront it.
Brilliant foreshadowing.
Good point 👍🏻👍🏻
But in that moment no one could think nothing about lodges😅😅😅😅😅
I don’t think it’s foreshadowing, but it's brilliant how well it intertwines with everything later.
I feel sorry for anyone who can’t appreciate this scene, or any like it.
My favourite monologue in any work of fiction just so magical
I remember 6 year old me watching my mother reacting to this scene. She cried, but looked almost mad about it afterwards. "That scene was good. But it's like...it's what you'd WANT to hear from your parents. It's like, wish fulfilment."
Sadly....I know her anger. I wish I'd heard that from my Dad, in any form. It's all I ever wanted. But I turned out to be the complete opposite of him, and I think it hurt him. I didn't mean to, I was just a kid.
Watch this scene, but this time pay close attention to the people in the background whenever the Major is talking.
No one is eating. No one is talking. Barely anyone is even moving. As if they're frozen in time. Only one guy moves a bit every once in a while. It's eerie
As if the world has gone away and it’s just the two of them sharing this sweet, powerful moment. As eerie as it is, I kinda dig it.
It's dream logic and it's beautiful.
That's a Dad.
Probably one of the most understated yet poignant scenes in all of Twin Peaks…
"exceptional as always"
That's an interesting line.
I legit teared up when I first saw this scene 😢 so happy for Bobby’s character in the return
Although the music starts at 0:39, the way the orchestra crescendo slowly comes in louder when he says, "a reunion with the deepest wellspring of my being," really drives home the emotion of this scene 🥲
This is so well played, it can not be repeated! I watched this scene 1000 times i cried every time.
This scene hits differently now that I'm older and have a son of my own. Plus, Major Briggs looked a lot like my late grandfather.
I'm sure Bobby will never forget this as long as he lives.
The break in the Major’s voice when he says his son’s name speaks volumes. The Major Brigg’s isn’t an emotionless man. He’s incredibly strong having first hand experience with the horrors of reality, while maintaining his ethics and decency. He’s not breaking down to his son or looking for sympathy, nor is he lecturing Bobby. He’s sharing with him a powerful dream of hope and love that couldn’t have possibly been easy for him to share without shedding tears. He hopes that one day Bobby can surpass him in his strength and maturity and grow into his full potential. Bobby is a good kid, he just needed to hear it at the right time.
Lynch’s sincerity is his best quality
Major briggs might be my favorite tv character in any show ever. The absolutely absurd way he talks, his profound but indescribable knowledge, the acting, all of it.
As son of a military officer, it makes me wanna cry every time
One of my favourite scenes. Thank you for posting this.
Deep down the darkness, horror and violence that surrounds Twin Peaks there's a warm heart, and it shows itself in the most difficult moments. Finally Bobby and his father can be in peace with each other.
The passion, warmth and tenderness atmosphere this scene was made with by Lynch is something fascinating. One of the best moments of the show and just superb performances of Dana Ashbrook and Don Davis (this was his personal favorite).
what a fantastic scene and a fantastic actor.
I love him so much ❤❤❤ such a great character!!
This scene is full of such deep love
Brilliantly written and played.
One of my favorite scenes of all time!
Exceptional
This makes me cry nearly every time I watch it
I know he was just acting but I like to think given how often he played characters like this that Don Davis really was just like this as a person. This scene was incredible and I'm so glad The Return showed us how this simple little chat changed Bobby's life forever.
Garland Briggs... man I need to re watch season 1 and 2.
As an emotionally mature person, this scene shreds me to pieces. Oh to have this moment from a parent.
A masterpiece and a lesson on how a parent who has a difficult relationship with their child can relate and connect with them ❤️
At that moment I really felt for Bobby. When he said, “thank you Dad”, I was gonna say the same. That was something that I think we’d all like to hear at least once in our lives from a parent
I love the Colonel's stereotypical military voice, lol.
Great scene....the major always loved his son....
My favorite scene from the entire show with my favorite character of the show - Bobby. I love SO MUCH what this character represents and the development surrounding him (when it was being taken care by Lynch).
all the scenes with bobby and the major make me cry
I absolutely love well written and acted characters. To the point that events, timeline and overall story become irrelevant to me.
Twin peaks is definitely a timeless masterpiece of character writing.
This and Michael Stuhlbargs speech in Call Me By Your Name are the two best dad speeches ever.
Make a grown man cry
Its something most of us will not get to experience. The complete validation of a father to his son. Easily one of the most significant scenes in the series, even if a lot of Series 2 feels like filler at times.
I saw this scene today for the first time, after hearing it many times as a sample without context in Biosphere's song, Hyperborea. when I recognized the major's voice just as he was about to tell his vision, I was completely taken aback. I had liked him as a character from the very first scene in which he appeared, his highly articulate way of speaking. in the arms of my boyfriend, I started crying. as a young parent with a bad relationship to my own parents, this scene was one of the most touching things I have ever witnessed. I'm glad my boyfriend suggested for us to watch this series together.
I had listened to that song dozens of times before watching this scene. When he began talking it evoked a unique feeling in me. having heard it so many times before.
Such great acting! Love this my fave twin peaks scene
That was heartwarming from Major! 😃
I think about this scene all the time, so perfect
Amazing scene. The fact that Bobby really did turn his life around (at least morally) makes it even more touching!
Audio from this scene was used in Terrence Malick's film Knight Of Cups, game recognizes game. For me this scene is one of the best in the entire series.
Can’t say why I’ve always been drawn to all things Lynchian. Movies..the old and newer twin peak’s series. It’s strange and often sad but it’s so compelling
The mind revealing itself to itself.

I like that
