Lucy's little smirk indicates otherwise to me. I think it's just a way for her to win while also looking like the good guy.
Also, Mullins mentioned Dougie has worked for him for 12 years but Dougie didn't exist until 1997? I don't think this season takes place in 2019. Continuity error?
1997 was 20 years ago. You're welcome for making you feel old.

He's going to reappear in Buenos Aires via the electrical wiring he cranially impacted. The Grandson appeared in a dream where he entered the vintage White Tail Falls photo, so he got confused and tried.
There is a cavity behind the falls that's part of the hydroelectric plant.
Damn I'm going to be analyzing the books of Robert Heinlein for a minute

You're having a hard time this morning. Have you had your coffee? It's dangerous to post on the internet without having had at least one mug of strong black coffee.

LOL, you're right I haven't! Redacting what I said HAHA
Finally saw the episode- loved it, and it has now settled into a regular mode of plot updates IMO. Enough is now moving forward to guarantee momentum.
I reckon that the coordinate link on the website will change towards next weeks episode. What if it is meant as a web cam? i.e. a real time update towards the events of next weeks episode?

Thank God.
I admit that I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that Roth wasn't playing Jeffries. For a long time we've been living with the theory that Roth might be taking that role, but Bowie's just too one-of-a-kind for a recast.
Well it's the first time this season I thought a part was boring. At least Part 6 was full of great ideas, even if sometimes they weren't really well executed. But here everything felt predictable and formulaic. At the end, the scene at the Roadhouse (again) with Au Revoir Simone (again) made me wanna sleep.
It's not that it was just all narrative and no esthetic (like for exemple Part 7), it's that it was overly expository. Blablabla, all talk. Totally agree with Mr. Reindeer about that.
I mean, what was so brilliant about 3.08 -- I kept thinking about it last week, like everyone I suppose --, it's not only how crazy and beautiful it looked : it's how Lynch here has never been in a way so clear and narative about the origin of the oniric figures of his world. We understand so much about Bob and the Red Room, I never though Lynch would go so deep in the explanation of this universe. But at the same time, nothing is told, nothing is litteral, everything is figurative, everything is cinema. If Lynch was a conceptual guy, he could even have made the 3.08 as a silent film to really make his point : to prove that you can manage to be « narative » in yet a totally figurative way, without dialogues (but since he’s totally free, well, he don’t care about demonstration).
So yeah, even If we can't expect something like 3.08 every week, this part was a letdown.
Plus, all the funny stuff fell flat. I agree with Rhodes : the old characters scenes are in general not as good as the rest.
I was also a bit disappointed by the role of Roth. Very, very forgettable. I hope he's not going to disappear a la Jeremy Davies.
On the brighter side, Matthew Lillard was as brilliant as before. He really saves the scene because otherwise it's a pretty deceptive one. And I liked Sky Ferreira very much. She's captivating and a lot better than in "The Green Inferno". Even though she seems a bit lost with all this new TP characters that appears and then fade away (hello Amanda Seyfried ?). I guess she's gonna meet Balthazar Getty or Richard Horne one time or another. Or not...
Anyway, I hope we're gonna SEE something next week and not being told about it.
Part 8 > Part 3 > Part 1 > Part 4 > Part 7 > Part 5 > Part 2 > Part 6 > Part 9
Jerry hearing his foot say it was not his foot reminded me of Cooper losing his shoes when he went through the socket back in episode 3. I feel like Dougie/Cooper seeing the red shoes as he passes the electric socket is also a flashback to that moment, just like when Coop was transfixed by the statues shoes a couple episodes back.
Another thing a few episodes ago Jerry was missing his car as was Dougie/Cooper. I wonder if there's a connection between the two? They both seem lost for sure.

- Bad Dale and the Kreamed Korn Kru are looking for the coordinates Hastings and Ruth found
- Hastings says that when they gave the coordinates to Briggs he apparently ascended to somewhere beautiful/Purple Town/the White Lodge?
- Could Bad Coop be plotting to invade the White Lodge?
DoppelCoop is going to try and nuke the White Lodge, or somehow release Mother. Who's the billionaire with the box? Jeffries?
