  1. Thats pretty close to my read on it, maybe even Cooper and Diane were in a relationship before everything happened, Diane had to deal with the double whammy of losing her job, and being betrayed/having her heart broken by this man she thought she knew. She never got closure on their relationship and now holds spiteful feelings towards cooper and the FBI as a whole in result.
  2. Yeah, it did seem to be a similar organic gunk. I think it being Ike's skin is a misdirect, maybe its something from Dougie? He did pick up and hold the gun didnt he? I need to rewatch the earlier eps for clarity but has he ever directly touched anything directly related to his past life? I know he's gotten close to fingering people's badges and stuff but maybe its 'Dougie's essence' sloughing off to become Coop? Also, i just made the connection about Doc Hayward being on this episode. Mark Frost had to have planned it so that episode was shown on Fathers Day, right? Great tribute to his Dad there.
  3. I loved the mini True Crime docudrama after the attack also. Especially the touch of the focused "spotlight" on the gun and tweezers. Totally something you would see in that kind of show.
  4. This was the episode that to me really brought forward the "soap opera" notes of original Twin Peaks without it explicitly being a soap. We spent a lot of time with Dougie/Coop, he happened to solve something without realizing it(with the help of the special effects.) Got a tease about both the sheriff's relationship/what hawk found and learned that Janey-E is a boss. I cant help but be a little suspicious of her due to the nature of this show. Everyone in the original Twin Peaks has some evil side and I am having trouble putting that aside, especially when the show is setting up these clearly despicable characters(Red, dude who ran over the kid, that jerk Deputy Chad, etc.)
  5. I just signed up to the forum to post that my take on something. Coop shedding a tear while gazing at Sonny Jim was another piece of Cooper's real personality coming to the forefront. I think He's realizing that somehow he's been injected into this other man's life. He's coming to the realization, much like the viewers are, that at some point in the future he's going to leave this wife and son without a father/husband. On a side note I love how much the Dougie arc again brings forward the trope of characters in Twin Peaks just ignoring insane things going on around them or in front of them/ just taking it for granted that its how the world works. . People noting that he's lost weight, people noting the new haircut, but no one seems to bat an eyelash at how they have to lead Coop around like a child, put his clothes on for him, etc etc. The only person that really seemed to actually care about Dougie/Coop(on a grander scale) was Jade, and that was probably because he just puked on the floor and could barely even walk. It does make me wonder if we will get any Dougie backstory, was he always just an aloof kinda guy? Did he have psychotic episodes that cause him to go basically catatonic on occasion?
