Season 2 ep. 1 "May the Giant Be With You"

Go deep into the production history of Twin Peaks Episode 8 as it kicks the supernatural mythology of Twin Peaks into gear, then stay for an exploration of the Giant and his clues, what happens when music is in the air, and what happens when you wear Laura’s stuff. All this, plus visions from Maddy and the Major, Audrey’s predicament, a thesis statement from Jacoby, and nightmare-creating memories from Ronette. 0:00:00  Intro0:03:52  Production History0:25:55  Log Lady Intro0:34:56  How the Giant contributes to our understanding0:39:25  In-between spaces0:42:50  Repetition of phrases0:44:18  Elderly Room Service Waiter0:49:57  The Giant arrives1:08:24  Cooper focused on clues1:13:45  Deputy Andy1:18:22  James Hurley1:20:27  Dr. Jacoby’s questioning1:25:35  Laying the whole thing out1:31:40  The Giant returns1:39:12  That gold ball of light1:44:32  Major Briggs’ vision1:49:30  Bobby Briggs and Shelly Johnson1:52:47  The symbols in food1:58:30  When there’s music in the air2:00:14  Maddy Ferguson’s vision2:02:30  Leland Palmer2:09:05  The Horne brothers2:13:08  Hayward Supper Club2:18:51  Effects of the Mill fire2:21:50  Philip Gerard2:25:25  Big Ed doesn’t believe in fate2:30:00  Audrey Horne, Prudence, and Ben2:34:24  Maddy Ferguson2:36:20  Donna Hayward and Laura’s sunglasses2:47:40  Harriet Hayward’s poem2:52:50  Ronette Pulaski2:57:40  Ronette’s nightmareArticles discussed in this episode:A Journey to the Underworld of Twin PeaksReincarnation & The Return Part 3: Ding.
