Twin Peaks S2E1: May The Giant Be With You
Added 2025-06-02 14:32:30 +0000 UTCDale’s been shot! What a cliffhanger! It’s September 1990, and I’ve been itching for some narrative resolution all summer! But David Lynch says no no no – instead, you get the slowest glass of warm milk in the world, and some Giant Prophecies! After (kinda) recovering, Coop gets brought up to speed on the crazy events of the finale and learns the following clues:
Laura knew some weird poetry
Jacoby had her necklace
Leo has an alibi
Whoever killed Jacques Renault smelled like engine oil
and Jacques’ body was in a….smiling bag‼️
He focuses the case on finding the “third man” present at Laura’s murder. Also, Albert’s back, and he’s still an asshole.
Meanwhile, Audrey barely fends off her father at One-Eyed Jack’s with the help of a Venetian mask, but is locked in her room for it, as her subplot makes the official tone switch from saucily playful to ominously dire. Leland’s hair turns white overnight, and he’s joined a barbershop quartet about it – and by the way, Maddy had a weird rug dream? It really freaks her out. She gets in an “act like Laura” contest with Donna about it. Other stuff: We learn about Ed and Nadine’s backstory. Bobby has a surprisingly touching moment with his father. Josie’s in Seattle… shopping? But a mysterious man wants to talk to her. The hospital food will kill ya. And last but not least, coma-bound Ronnette Pulaski has a vision/flashback of Laura’s murder, in the most genuinely terrifying sequence on the show to date.
