Featured review
the plot progresses...
In a similar fashion to the much-loved episode 7, this episode of "Twin Peaks" works as a means to further the plot. Layers of both darkness and lightheartedness are stacking up creating moments of mystery, comedy, drama, and surrealism. In between these two narrative episodes was the both beloved and hated 8th episode which is among Lynch's finest and strangest works. Although I fell in total love with that episode, it's still nice to see that the show has not completely gone off the rails in terms of plot progression. This episode allows viewers to dive deeper into the bizarre and comical worlds of the large cast of characters, developing some of the newer faces with glee, humor, heart, and horror. As a matter of fact, despite everyone loving the seventh episode (hey, I love it too, no worries!), I think that episode 9 was the superior piece. It's just much more funny, entertaining, and engaging to me and it makes me excited for future plot developments involving all of the many intertwining personalities and subplots Lynch has slowly introduced throughout the season. And, while this is a more conventionally structured and less confusing episode than many of the previous ones, there are still many weird moments jam packed with slight surrealism, absurdist humor, and magical mystery. The oddest sequence is certainly the "I am not your foot" scene which is not worth detailing and should just be seen on its own; it's ridiculous and discomforting, it made me laugh, but I was also aware of an inner pain hidden deep within the scene, and I have realized that in this sense Lynch has always been a master of tone and emotion, and I'm glad he's still got it!
