    Every time a chess piece is lost, a person dies. It's that easy, but that's why they need Pete to stall. Any other show would have put Josie into a chess piec like the queen, but NOPE not Twin Peaks. Drawer door knob it is.

    Pete's chess skills are needed because every time Windom takes a piece from the board, someone dies. As for Pete's apparently casual attitude towards the terrible treatment of Josie (who he always seemed very fond of), I think he's a nice guy, but weak. There are so many people like that irl...nice enough, but won't stand up for what is right because they don't want to make their own lives difficult.
    I don't think it's a spoiler to confirm that, yes, Josie really did do all these things (arrange Andrew's murder, kill Johnathan, attempt to kill Coop etc).
    The way her desperation and terror gradually build in this episode (while everything is closing in on her) is superb. And the BOB moment always give me chills.
    Hmm, what IS Ben's game? Is he sincere about the little pine weasel or is this just another of his schemes?

    Props to the editor for taking the second worst part of the show (the Truman/Josie relationship) and actually making a great montage out of it! You accomplished something that the show couldn't pull off itself. Also I know the drawer pull would be the thumbnail and it's even funnier than I thought it would be.
    Love Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul! Do you have a preference between the two? I'm definitely in the BCS camp.
    I love Joen Chen's performance in this episode. Josie is easily my least favorite character in the original run but she's actually compelling here and you can feel just how screwed she is. The Bob and drawer pull stuff doesn't really work for me but I'll still take that over another scene with Truman telling her how beautiful she is and how he's going to protect her.
    Also glad that we get a decent scene with James and Donna to end their story. People can rag on them all they want but I do think that they are fun characters that are the heart of early Twin Peaks and they really got screwed over by the writers who couldn't figure out what to do with them after Leland's death. The middle of the season would have been so much better if they had used Donna and James to explore the aftermath of Maddy's death and Sarah Palmer's grief over her husband and daughter but instead all of that was immediately swept under the rug for James's Wild Adventure. Biggest failure of the series imo.

    Bob crawling from under the bed just to taunt Coop and the Arm doing the dance is proper disrespect. They know they have the power over the situation, they are not afraid to show their dominance. Remember the Giant did ask Cooper previously: ,,The true question is where have you gone?" Oh, Coop.

  • @frugalseverin2282

    Is this Josie's 1st time in a knob or is she just returning there? Maybe it's symbolic that she's always been a tool, a pawn pushed and pulled her whole life.
    Billy Zane starred in the old era super hero film "The Phantom" from 1996. It's worth a watch. That same year Joan Chen co-starred in "Wild Side" along with Christopher Walken and the late great Anne Heche. "A steamy, provocative thriller" according to the blurb on the DVD case.

    • @mgordon1100
      @mgordon1100 2 месяца назад

      I'll give you a couple points for being clever, but the term in regards to people being tools didn't really gain any popularity until the late 90's/2000's. Actually, it's a bit deeper than that here. The clues have been building up since day one.
      1. The town is a logging town. It was built by cutting down all those trees.
      2. The log lady carries around a log that speaks to her. We can assume that she's crazy or believe that there is a soul, or maybe more, in that log.
      3. Hawk's tribe believed in The Black Lodge. It's safe to assume that his entire tribe once inhabited the land that twin peaks sits upon. If everything in that town was built by the trees, and The Black Lodge is an underworld of death in that region, then anyone who goes to The Black Lodge would most likely have their soul trapped in the woods that encompasses the Lodge.
      I think that the place Hawk and the Major spoke about is a place for unsettled souls. This is why Laura was there until her murder was solved, and Dale went there when he was near death with his case at an impass. Josie definitely had an unsettled, dark soul. Becoming part of the woods, and residing in that doorknob, tells us that The Black Lodge will probably be her final destination .

    When 'Twin Peaks' was originally televised in Britain, there was a significant delay between S2 episodes 15 and 16 - I think some big sporting event took its slot for a couple of weeks. So for the fans who hadn't been Evelyned away, this episode was a welcome return even before the climax showed it to _really_ be a welcome return. 'Twin Peaks' wasn't just back on the screen, it was back being 'Twin Peaks'. It may have been Andrew who said, "I'm aliiive!", but in the final scene of this episode, it's as if the spirit of 'Twin Peaks' is making the same declaration.

    We're so close to the light at the end of the tunnel! Things really start to pick up again with the appearance of a certain actor (and I don't mean Billy Zane...no offense). Ah, reformed Ben Horne, with his cigars replaced by celery stalks. Leo doesn't run away from Windom Earle because of the shock collar around his neck. And at this point, I think we can assume he has been psychologically broken by Earle.
    As we get into the home stretch, I'm just remembering this quote from a David Lynch interview in the book _Lynch on Lynch_ where he shared his thoughts on this portion of the show. "In the second season, Cooper ceased to be 100 per cent Cooperesque for me. He got these flannel shirts and stuff! Some people maybe liked it. So you say, yes, I'm glad in a way. And in another way I'm really sorry because a guy that's too much like me cannot sustain that intense interest or dream. He's got to be specific. Cooper is a certain way. It's necessary."

    When the show was on originally on ABC, this was the final episode aired before it went on a hiatus and it wasn't known if the show was coming back. Thankfully, the show did return for another 6 episodes to close out the 2nd season.. and it's a return to form for the show with the Windom Earle plotline tying all of Twin Peaks together.
    Josie was a character that was more of an engima then an actual character. Because she was deceptive, we really never got know the real her.. and it's tragic that sweetnatured Harry still loved her.. or the persona she choose to have him see.
