They recorded the scenes with everyone pronouncing forward-sentences
backwards, so that when the scene is played in reverse, the sentences
are forward-sounding.  For example, videotape yourself saying the
word "Oh Leh", and when you play it in reverse, you're saying "hello"
albeit strangely.  Weird effect -- thanks David Lynch!

Now, would someone kindly explain the meaning of the last episode to me?
