Every previous episode of this revival has followed a completely different formula and plot than the last. When starting an episode, I would have literally no idea what to expect. But even David Lynch has to settle into some form of arc eventually, and this episode is where it started to happen. No longer is the very fabric of the story on shifting grounds (at least for now). That doesn't mean that this episode didn't have its share of moments that make you forget everything you thought you knew. It does. But they are now more firmly rooted in the characters and situations that have already been established.
That being said, there were still a number of first appearances from characters new and old. The old continues to satisfy and the new continues to surprise. A number of characters who I thought would be one-off appearances resurface in this episode, which was nice. I do feel that the forgetful Cooper story-line will start to get tiring soon, but it's still amusing at the moment. The only part of this episode that I found somewhat disappointing was the lack of a resolution to the cliffhanger from part four.
All in all, this was a less eventful episode but still a satisfying one. The show seems to have settled into a main plot line (for now at least). Now it's time to just sit back and enjoy the ride... wherever it may take us.
