Subject: TP - The ^Twin Peaks^ Timeline: 2019 - 2020 From: enomura@sdcc13.ucsd.edu (...creeping debbie...) Date: 1991-05-10, 00:55 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks,rec.arts.tv 24 Mar (Friday) [Episode 2019 - 4/11/91 Written by Mark Frost & Harley Peyton Directed by Johnathan Sanger] Morning -- Coop, Andy, Hawk, and Truman are back at Owl Cave and find a new petroglyph. The tracks they find are the same ones outside the powerstation. Cooper deduces it was Earle. -- Earle talks to Leo and a punk who thought he was invited to a party, about the White Lodge and the Black Lodge. On a computer is the petroglygh from Owl Cave. Earle: Once upon a time, there was a place of great goodness, called the White Lodge. Gentle fawns gamboled there amidst happy, laughing spirits. The sounds of innocence and joy filled the air. And when it rained, it rained sweet nectar that infused one's heart with a desire to live life in truth and beauty. Generally speaking, a ghastly place, reeking of virtue's sour smell. Engorged with the whispered prayers of kneeling mothers, mewling newborns, and fools, young and old, compelled to do good without reason. Heh-heh! But, I am happy to point out that our story does not end in this wretched place of saccharine excess. For there's another place, its opposite; a place of almost unimaginable power, chock full of dark forces and vicious secrets. No prayers dare enter this frightful maw. Spirits there care not for good deeds or priestly invocations; they are as like to rip the flesh from your bone as greet you with a happy "Good day!" And if harnessed, these spirits in this hidden land of unmuffled screams of broken hearts would offer up a power so vast that its bearer might reorder the earth itself--to his liking! Now! This place I speak of--is known as the Black Lodge. And I intend to find it. -- Pete tries to create a poem on Josie but is interrupted by Catherine. She hasn't been able to open the box left by Eckhardt's assistant. Pete tells her it's a puzzle box that could take YEARS to open. Catherine: Open it! I've been trying for days. -- At the RR Bobby tries to convince Shelley to enter Miss TP. -- Elsewhere at the RR, Lana tries to convince the mayor to help her win the contest since he's a judge. -- Cooper enters and orders coffee and donuts from Annie for his team, and makes a date with Annie (a nature study) for this afternoon. He overhears a piece of the poem Shelley was reciting and gets her piece of the poem. Blue plate special is 'Hearty Beaver Broth'. -- Cooper tells Truman that the message was from Earle. It was the poem that he sent to Caroline. -- Major Briggs points out an error in Andy's chalkboard rendition of the petroglyph. He's dreamed of it. Cooper says that Leo's disappearance, Owl Cave, and Earle are all related. He asks for Briggs' help, who ponders his situation and dedication to his work. We see a silhouette of a hooded figure. When it comes toward the screen, a starscape is seen inside, and an owl flies in the starscape and we then see a wall of fire appear. Briggs agrees to help. Hawk brings in Leo's arrest report, which Cooper compares to the poem and concludes it was Leo's handwriting. -- Dick and Ben chat. Ben: Sometimes the urge to do bad...is nearly overpowering. -- The punk is in a papermache (pawn) and Earle asks for an arrow. Leo doesn't want to but those shocks from his collar convinced him to. Earle loads a crossbow and shoots the punk. 3:35 pm (clock on wall) -- The Miss Twin Peaks Committee (Doc Hayward, the Mayor, and Pete) meets and listens to Ben who wants the topic of the pageant to be to save the forests. -- Miss TP contestants gather. Mike: "Do you have any idea what a combination of sexual maturity and superhuman strength can result in?" 3:36 pm (grandfather clock) -- Truman and Catherine talk about Josie and why she did what she did. She shows him the puzzle box. Pete shows up and drops the it, opening it. The contents in the box seems to be another puzzle box which consist of two concentric rings of symbols. The inner ring is made up of symbols corresponding to the phases of the moon. The outer ring is made up mostly of zodiac symbols. Clock position Inner Symbol Outer Symbol (moonphase) (zodiac) -------------------------------------------------------- 12:00 Full Moon Libra 1:30 Waxing Gibbous Pisces 3:00 First Quarter Cancer (modified)* 4:30 Waxing Crescent Unknown** 6:00 New Moon Aries 7:30 Waning Crescent Sagittarius 9:00 Third Quarter Taurus 10:30 Waning Gibbous Gemini * The Cancer symbol differs from that shown in the dictionary. Essentially, it's like a lowercase sigma with a long , straight tail and another similarly modified sigma, rotated 180 degrees, directly beneath it. ** This symbol is a large circle with four much smaller circles just outside it at clock positions 10:30, 11:30, 12:30, and 1:30. The overall effect is that of a paw. Perhaps it's a different sign for Leo. Sometime after 4:00 (Cooper tells Annie he'll pick her up at 4:00 sharp) -- Annie and Coop in a boat. Annie tells Cooper that she had one senior year boyfriend and because of him, there are scars on her wrist before she entered the convent. Cooper kisses her twice. Earle watches. -- A wine tasting party which Dick is hosting with a bandaged nose. -- Gordon again speaks normally to Shelley. When Cooper and Annie appear Gordon tells them and Shelley that he's leaving but he'll try to return to TP to be with Shelley. He gives her two kisses, the first interrupted by Bobby who is expressing his disbelief. -- Lana and Andy could find banana and chocolate in the taste of the wine they tasted. Lucy spits wine in Dick's face. -- J.J. and Cooper chat about love. J.J. receives a telegram and quickly makes arrangements to check out. -- Donna still wants to know Eileen's involvement with Ben, and she is thinking of studying overseas. Eileen wants more peas. -- Hooded silhouette but with a half moon where the head is. The owl flies. -- Cooper and the police at the gazebo. There's a crate on the gazebo. On it there's a ring on a sign that says "PULL ME". Cooper does from a distance using a police line tied to the ring and a rock. He shoots the rock and the crate opens. The punk is in a chess piece scupture with a sign saying that "Next time it will be someone you know." The board presently: +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | WR | | | WK | WQ | WB | WN | WR | | w| b| w| b| w| b| w| b| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | WP | WP | WP | | | WP | WP | WP | | b| w| b| w| b| w| b| w| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | | | WN | | | | | | | w| b| w| b| w| b| w| b| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | | | | WP | | | | | | b| w| b| w| b| w| b| w| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | | | | WP | | | | | | w| b| w| b| w| b| w| b| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | | | | | | BN | BP | WB | Captured: | b| w| b| w| b| w| b| w| --------- +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ BP by WP | BP | BP | BP | | BP | BP | | | BP by WB | w| b| w| b| w| b| w| b| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ | BR | BN | BB | BK | BQ | BB | | BR | | b| w| b| w| b| w| b| w| +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+ [Episode 2020 - 4/18/91 Written by Harley Peyton & Robert Engels Directed by Stephen Gyllenhaal] Evening (continued) -- The cops haul the pawn off the gazebo. A friend of the punk in the pawn describes how Scott, wearing a weird suit, came out of the woods, saying he had beer so Rusty Tomaski the punk went with him. Andy cries. Cooper thinks Earle is playing off the board since Earle didn't tell him his move. 25 March (Saturday) Morning -- Lucy tells Truman that Hawk is feeding breakfast to some guy she's never seen before because he looked sad. She tells Andy tommorow is D-Day (Dad Day) when she'll choose the father of her baby. She's also going to enter the Miss Twin Peaks contest and Andy's got some ideas for her speech. -- At the Great Northern, Jack checks to see if there are any messages for him from Audrey -- Doc Hayward, after examining Ben, gives him a clean bill of health, and tells him to stay away from Eileen. Ben says not as long as the lie survives. Jack enters, looking for Audrey. He has to leave because his partner was murdered. -- Donna Marie Hayward finds a blank space on her birth certificate under the "Father" entry and some pictures of her parents with Ben. Hawk is on the phone for her. -- Audrey returns and runs into Hawk who tells her it is important to see Cooper immediately. -- Jack and Ben chat. Jack's got to take his partner's place in the Rain Forest business. He's got something for Audrey. -- Briggs has Cappy look for symbols and has some information for Cooper and Truman. Earle was the best and brightest of them, but became obsessive and destructive when the attention turned from outer space to Twin Peaks and so was removed from the project. E: These, uh, these evil sorcerers, uh,...dugpas, they're called...they, uh, cultivate evil for the sake of evil, nothing else, they, uh, express thenselves in darkness, for darkness without leavening motive, uh--Now this, this ardent purity allows them to access a secret place where the cultivation of evil proceeds in exponential fashion, and with it, the furtherance of evil's resulting power! Th-this place of power is tangible and as such can be found, entered, and perhaps utilized in, in some fashion. Th-the dugpas have, have, many names for it, but chief among them (coughs) is the, uh, is the Black Lodge. You don't believe me, do you? You think I'm mad. Overworked. Go away. C: (pauses tape) Gentlemen, when Windom Earle arrived in Twin Peaks I assumed he had come for vengeance. For me. But I miscalculated. He has insinuated himself into the lives of people I care for, he has murdered innocents; he has engaged us in subterfuge and red herring-- a fish I don't particularly care for. But all of these acts are merely camouflage; he's been after something else all along. The Black Lodge. Fellas, we need to find out what this (points to monitor), the Black Lodge, has to do with that! (points to drawing of map) Cooper and Truman will look through the old files and Briggs will go for a walk. -- Earle, eavesdropping on Cooper, Truman, and Briggs, laughs. Leo pockets the shocker. -- At the RR, a pie-eater's hand shakes. Bobby and Shelly discuss her speech and his recent inattention to Shelly. Cooper's on the phone for Shelly. 7:52 am (clock on wall) -- At the roadhouse, the mayor tells Lana she's gonna win since the other judges are gonna be Norma and Dick. She says she'll marry after she wins. -- Cooper has Shelly, Audrey, and Donna compare stories of running into strange people. Shelly recognizes Leo's handwriting. Cooper tells them they need to check into the sherrif's everyday at 9 am and 9 pm. -- Earle babbles, Leo cleans, recognizes Shelly on the card and shocks himself -- Audrey enters the Great Northern just missing Jack on his way out. Ben wants Audrey to enter Miss Twin Peaks so she can speak about his cause. He mentions Jack's flight so she takes off, getting Pete, who babbles about seeing Josie's face, to drive her. -- Cooper and Truman ponder the petroglyph. Andy goes to call Mrs. Briggs to find out about Briggs who should've arrived by now. Cooper talks about Annie then gets the hand shakes. -- Briggs in the woods, stops at a tree, touches it and his tattoo, and is shot by Earle in a horse outfit. -- Jack prepares to take off 10:34 am (clock on wall) -- Cooper and Annie chat then kiss. Plates fall. -- Pete and Audrey catch up to Jack. They proclaim their love for each other and she says she's a virgin and wants him to make love to her. Pete cries and gets the hand shakes. -- Earle interrogates Briggs strung up on a target. Briggs: "There's a time if Jupiter and Saturn meet, they will receive him." He also says something like "That gum you like is coming back" backwards. Windom: What is your greatest fear...in this world? Major: The possibility that love is not enough. -- Andrew and Catherine fiddle with the puzzle box. After trying Eckhardt's birthday and his own birthday, he tries the day the gift arrived and it opens, revealing another box. Andrew smashes it, revealing a metal box. -- Annie and Cooper dance. She mentions entering the Miss Twin Peaks pageant. The Giant appears to Cooper with a mouthed warning, "no, no." Mayor: "This isn't right. There's something wrong here." Dusk -- Pete wakes in his car. The jet takes off for Brazil. Audrey's still here. Pete: "There are many cures for a broken heart. But nothing quite like a trout's leap in the moonlight..." -- Leo and Briggs writhe in pain. Earle determines the petroglyph is a map. Night -- BOB returns, "I'm out!" -- f3-7r3974rg94gf79-t7fx-97tr-kb79-btr97vr-973tr8c63r8vch9ptv.p;v67ptr7pvt7ptv;p73********************************************************************************* "Shut your eyes and you'll burst into flames" - ^Twin Peaks^ * *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~** Edwin Nomura * "Razor's edge, outlines the dead, incision in my head ** enomura@ucsd.edu * Anticipation, the stimulation, to kill the exhilaration"* *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* - Slayer ** "Everyone has their own opinions *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~** Well everyone knows what to do" - Debbie Gibson * "The Good Doctor" in 1992 * ********************************************************************************4yt7tcy90t780rvbp5ty7;rnlvo7ttr780on8-v6984r7;n97r-38=8b]-7yo;6r'bt08trn97btc;.r
