My First Twin Peaks Episode

Season 3 (The Return)

So I'm a socially awkward college student who just wrapped up my first year, and a few months ago I felt like trying something new to make some friends, so I walked into my school's "Tweaker" club, who as far as I'm aware literally just watch Twin Peaks and sometimes other parts of Lynch's filmography. This was before I was a Lynch fan, and I had only seen Mulholland drive, so I really didn't have too specific of expectations besides knowing it was cool and weird. I still haven't had the time to watch the rest of the show, though I'm hoping to start sometime next week, but forever burned into my brain was the club's showing of Season 3 episode 8. You all are much bigger fans and scholars of this show than I, I won't summarize it, but watching it felt like it was the best and worst episode I could have seen to introduce me to the series. I thought I'd share this anecdote with the community.
