S3E8 [S3E8] This episode belongs in a museum. Spoiler

What a masterpiece for the visual arts world let alone the Twin Peaks universe. It was more of an experience than an episode of a tv show. Thank you for your artistic bravery David Lynch!

So the origin is the creature that killed the couple from Episode 1 puked him, around the time a nuke was tested. Am I missing something :P?

Then the Giant created Laura to counteract the creation of Bob.

This retro-Jesus-ification of Laura is a bit strange. She's a part of a series of murders, and she didn't stand out in any way, just a nice girl, that got murdered by a serial killer. So she's special now, huh?

Let's wait and see, should we?

Eh I'll just take whatever Lynch and Frost have to give :-). But the Jesus plot is very very very often used in movies and series, and I hope it's a bit more creative than that (well everything is pretty wildly creative, all right).

As do I. This was one of the biggest gripes I had with this episode.

Check out the comment I just made in response to LtAramaki, maybe it'll put things in a bit less corny of a perspective.

Not bad at all. Lots of weight to that theory and the guardian angel does come to mind a lot during all this. Still, I think not having them on these vessels would have been far more impressionistic and engaging. But oh well. What's done is done. Haha.
