“Masked Ball”

Twin Peaks takes a real step from the Laura Palmer mystery into what sure felt like a series of dull and uninspiring storylines.

• James rode his motorcycle and met a woman named Evelyn Marsh. I legit hate this storyline.
• Nadine is interested in high schooler Mike.
• Catharine has some new manipulations
• The mayor’s brother gets married again- played by Tony Jay.
• David Duchovny comes to town as DEA Agent Dennis/Denise Bryson
• Windham Earle makes a chess move.
• Dick brings Little Nicky for a malt; Andy tags along.
• Betty Briggs is not upset that her husband disappeared in the woods last episode.
• Audrey was on screen for three seconds dancing with Cooper at the wedding.

Seriously, this was very dull for most of the episode. It was odd to see David Duchovny show up in drag, but it is less of a shock these days as it would have been back in the 1990s.

There was an interesting scene between Hank and Ben Horne. Horne is very eccentric at this point, watching old home movies and making shadow puppets with his hands.

This was a huge step down from previous Twin Peaks episodes.
