Maybe it is irrelevant, but the photo means that either DoppelCoop was using the glass box for his own purposes (trapping Coop in Dougie, summoning The Experiment), or that someone pulled him into the glass box similar to how Good Coop was pulled into to glass box.

Aerosmith has a song called "Janie's Got a Gun." The music video starred Kristin Dattilo as Janie. Kristin Dattilo later starred on another Showtime show, "The Chris Isaak Show" which also starred Chris Isaak. As we all know, Chris Isaak played Chet Desmond. It's so obvious now!

The violence against women was off the charts in this episode. I know that has been a criticism of Lynch's work, and being a fan of Twin Peaks and some of Lynch's other work, that's always been something difficult for me to reconcile. I realize this is just a tv show, but even the characters we care about seem to not care - Ben more concerned about having to give his wife (or ex-wife) more money than the fact she was just ruthlessly assaulted by their grandson, Carl Rodd not being too alarmed by the attack on Becky in the trailer - yes, he's old and it isn't likely he can jump in and intervene, but he seemed more irritated by his song getting interrupted than being alarmed by what was happening. And the whole Candy depiction . . . geez . . . is this really how DKL envisions women? I understand that as viewers, we're asked to suspend ourselves from reality and "just go with it," but I didn't find any humor in the Candy scenes - it just seemed abrasively sexist.

Listen - not trying to rain on anybody's parade. I know a lot of people enjoyed Episode 10, and I think there were some great moments - the log lady's haunting call - the best part of all, the scene with Cole in the hotel room, and Rebekah del Rio who knocked it out of the park.

There was just a great deal that really bothered me with the rest of it, and as a Twin Peaks fan for life, it takes a lot to make me feel that way. I hope Episode 11 will be more redeeming.

The vocals were tuned VERY hard, 100% pitch correction and a very fast transition. Del Rio has a beautiful natural vibrato and it got squelched on this.

I wondered if he was the guy talking to NaughtyCoop outside the Box.

I wonder if Jefferies was recast and it's David Bowie's good friend Moby (another "Musician," as per this ep's credits) in his place.

Ben was worried about his son and the answer he got was "What about me? What about my money?" I think he's bothered by her vanity than by having to give her money. And I did not think for a second that Carl was annoyed that his song was cut off. He cut off his song because he was annoyed at the squabble. And like i said in another comment, he's a manager of a trailer park. It probably happens often, he's old, and there's only the sound of yelling inside the trailer..not violence. Also, like Lynch says in Catching the Big Fish, just because there's a woman character doesn't mean they represent all women and just because there's a male character doesn't mean they represent all men. They're meant to represent that character. Candy crying over whacking Knepper on the head is just an example of "strange and unproductive thinking", a theme that runs through his work much more than violence towards women [which I'd like to add that there's plenty of violence towards men in his films as well].

And Kevin Bacon fits in where?

Chris Isaak was in "Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me" with Keifer Sutherland who was in "Flatliners" with Kevin Bacon. BAM!
