PART 12

"An hour of Twin Peaks is a strange thing to write about, mostly because I have no damn idea how to define it. Virtually every episode so far has been different. We can get anything from an abstract tone poem on the atomic birth of Bob to the latest comic escapes of our man Dougie Jones. And all the while, the details slowly creep into frame, painting a broad portrait of a diasporic world slowly culling back together in the name of decency. But the difference is always in the how, and no episode highlights the variation of this new series quite like this one."

"Mostly, the episode strikes a wistful tone. The momentum that’s energized the show in recent weeks continues, as the plot keeps driving the characters to an inevitable reunion. But this hour also pauses to reflect and to call back to old legacies and traditions."
