Around the dinner table, the conversation was lively. Thank you but for now, the forum has been archived.
I really think the showing of Jessie in two scenes was to let us know that two timelines are playing out.
Twin Peaks seems to go weird after 10/2 those dates are going to mess things up.
What was up with the kid staring at Bobby, that reminded of the child horror of the 70s like The Shining or The Omen?
I figured he was trying to emulate his father. It was super creepy. That whole scene was.
And there was something about seeing her uncle? I'll have to watch it again as I was distracted by the green drool.
If creamed corn is Garmonbozia, I wonder what mushy peas are? I'm planning a Halloween menu...
Creamed corn, split pea soup, scorched oil and brains? Yum! I'll be the chap dressed like Bobby hiding in the corner,

I was thinking of doing Twin Peaks related Halloween party just because Frank Silva and Michael J. Anderson's birthdays are on Halloween. I don't like Anderson, but I figured it's as good as an excuse as any. This is giving me great ideas! God, I love Halloween!

I looked at him and thought of the Tremond grandson. There was something ethereal about him.

I'm thinking along the same lines. I also think Lynch does the whole "sleight of hand" thing with how he sets a scene to make you forget about story lines or important details by distracting you with some weirdness you can't stop thinking about. In this case, Jesse shows up in two different places at what seems like the same time is kind of important but easy to miss ( also because he's so weird and he has throw away lines,) but you forget about him completely because in the scene sandwiched in between the two you have some crazy lady who won't stop honking her her horn and screaming while her zombie passenger spits pea soup.
I mean, it WORKS because I forgot about Jesse IMMEDIATELY.
That kid in the car puking reminded me of the last time I ate at an IHOP! ?

Lol, this is not the first time I have heard about someone getting sick at IHOP. What are you guys eating there??

The creamed corn special.
This whole scene reminded me of the scene in FWWM with Leland and Laura in the car, when the one-armed man confronts him. Chaos and disorder, and the walls between the rational and and mad grown suddenly VERY thin.
Absolutely agreed. The way she acts is quite evocative of Phillip Gerard's behaviour in the FWWM scene, when he reveals Laura that Leland "is" Bob. When the car horn horn woman mentioned the uncle who hadn't been seen in a long time all I could think of was: "Bob's your uncle"!?
Melancholy song was actually written by Angelo Badalamenti. I'm sure he meant to write it in a Godfather-type vein, and boy did he succeed! He's so terrific! The pianist did not look a thing like him, and people seem to be split on weather it was him. I went back and looked at the credits, and I swear I can't see any credit for the pianist.

I always thought that he (Leland) made such a loud 'scene' to attempt to mask Mike's 'revealing' words.
Yes, he did. He gunned the engine to make noise, and then also shouted, and tore across the st. to the auto mechanic place where the guy tells him "Mister you can't do that, you'll burn your engine out!"
The mention of traffic and cars everywhere, plus the aggressively hyperexcessive horn honking convince me that it is, in part at least, an homage to Godard's "Weekend."
