Whoa! The Major was fighting them tooth and nail; of course it took some
time to convert him. Leo - Mr. Potato Head - wouldn't have taken any
time at all.

So what, the scene was still stupid. At least Ben isn't a Civil War
general any more, but now he seems to be drifting toward one of
the Three Stooges. Ben's character seems to have reached its zenith
with the scene of him watching the home movies after his defeat by
Catherine, and now its about to auger in to total inanity.

Was anybody else surprised that Jerry still hadn't shown up?

Northern.

You have to be kidding. This was the worst episode Lynch has
directed. In fact, with the pathetic letdown of the James/Evelyn
thread (which wasn't worth much to begin with) I'd nominate this
as one of the worst episodes of TP to hit the air so far.
