Damn Fine Commentary with Dave and Lynch Phil Willis

Part seventeen of Twin Peaks: The Return brings us to the ultimate in penultimate episodes. We find out there are bigger villains than Bob in the world. Mr C arrives at the coordinates, but doesn't quite find what he expected.


Chad gets punched in the face. Bob gets punched in the face. It's a punch-a-palooza.


Thank goodness we brought so many sandwiches.
