Did anyone notice that Tammy briefly vanished when Albert started shooting?

I did ... it's funny ... any other tv show or movie we would chalk these things up to editing mistakes ... but we just can't make that same assumption with Lynch lol

I thought that was just wishful thinking on my part!  😉

Okay I understand the reaction to some of her acting BUT IN ALL FAIRNESS lets all go back and watch Chet Desmond acting in Fire Walk With Me.  He's not exactly a master of emotional range either. 

I think they kind of echo each other.  Both times Lynch went with a musician and both times we kind of got someone a little off the beat of what you normally expect.  I am kind of fascinated watching her in the scenes where she has to stand around because you can see how she still sways like a singer (to a beat in her head) even when she's trying to stay still.  So you don't have to like her but it's not the first time they've gone in this direction, and I'm curious to see where she ends up by the finale.

Is there a single moment of Tammy's screentime that hasn't been cheesy throughout?

Chrysta has been awful enough to justify establishing Razzies for TV. She'd be a shoe-in! 

Wish they'd cast the likable coroner that Albert hit it off with as Tammy (or did she have to be young?).

Tammy's chair is seen at the extreme left of the screen when Albert is seen alone. She doesn't vanish, she's far in that shot.

The shot of Albert was wide enough that Tammy should have been seen.  Easily.  Look at Tammy's position in relation to her laptop in the scenes with both of them and the scene with only Albert.   Tammy is gone when Albert fired his first shot and back firing her weapon when Albert fired his second shot.

I don't understand the Tammy haters and think the interesting discussion is why she vanished?  Her superpower?  Foreshadowing her fate?

I'd have liked to see a bit of the playful Tammy we get in the secret history in the show but I doubt it will happen 

She seemed pretty playful when interviewing Hastings.

I have nothing agaist Chrysta or her acting. I think she's great. That was not my point. I just felt that the whole thing of her character accepting the story about the tulpa was a little rushed. A little bit too easy. Like as if DL thought "just get this over with, it's not that important" when he wrote the script. Just like Gordon Cole's phonecall to Frank Truman.

I thought there were three unique and humorous reactions:

Albert: appears to make a deposit in his shorts when Diane disappears. 

Tammy: "Whoa!  They're real.  That was a real tulpa."   

Gordon: Sheriff's station?

When Tammy said "So they're real!", I was briefly reminded of the way Professor McGonagall said "I've always wanted to use that spell!" in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II.

I absolutely liked her reaction in the scene - the speed with which she drew out the gun and started shooting and the words she spoke. The was a hint of genuine surprise, and it sounded very human, somehow. I think I'm starting to warm up to Tammy, who used to seem just a bit too efficient to be a living person and not an android 🙂
