-         Some of the men moving Earle’s pawn are dressed oddly. Probably explosive technicians.

-         BTW, it’s cool to pay attention to what they are doing in the background, moving the pawn barely, etc. A chainsaw they’re using to cut the pawn can be heard too.
-         The pawn already cut in the waiting room of the sheriff’s station and a deputy examining it.
-         Eileen’s maiden name says “Eileen Hayward”.
-         Hawk reading a book about owls in the hotel lobby. This book has been seen several times.
-         A ball of twine among all the evidences Briggs collected about Earle’s involvement in PBB. What’s it doing there?
-         There’s an almost completely obscured mugshot of a baldish man in the chalkboard with the petroglyph. Earle?
-         There are only 11 trees in the circle of 12 trees in the chalkboard.
-         A computer behind Earle with the circle of trees on it.
-         It’s interesting the shot of Earle throwing all the chess pieces with the petroglyph drawings he has. He doesn’t care anymore about the chess.
-         In Pete’s truck the words “Packard Mill” are on one side.
-         The head of the horse costume Earle used can be seen next to a computer when Briggs is being interrogated by Earle.
-         When he’s drugged, Briggs says something gibberish and nonsense. That’s actually the “That gum you like…” phrase with every word reversed: “Taht mug uoy…
-         In that scene Earle wears a US flag in his jacket.

-         A man fixing and having problems with the microphone in the Miss TP stage, before the Mayor does too.

-   And of course the famous ep.27 woman with her hat....appears in ep.27 shacking her arm and eating pie. In case you didn't notice her... *cough*

"When he’s drugged, Briggs says something gibberish and nonsense. That’s actually the “That gum you like…” phrase with every word reversed: “Taht mug uoy…"

Wow, that's interesting. I never noticed that at all. Are there any reversed clips of that knocking about?

the only time I have paid attention to any of the things they've done in the background is ep 3/4 whichever one when Hawk gives his friend the high-five outside the vets, the other patients in the waiting room, etc, but I think you already did this one a while ago.  Did you notice also notice the slight mishap in the morgue scene before the funeral if you watch that carefully - fight over at the morgue, then you watch Sheryl Lee looks as if she is about to burst out laughing and someone goes "heyo!" when Coop and Harry arrive because they can't get the curtain open and Coop says "gentlemen!" twice and clears his throat or something....watch hehe. (Sorry Gordon yes I know that's not from ep. 27 but my point is yes, it was fun noticing that. :) )

Haven't seen any of these either Gordon but it does sound fun,  I wanna see if I can come up with any but I bet you have or will cover them all by the time I see them lol.

Good work! :) 

I knew about the morgue scene...but I think it's not added to the episode thread, you know. I'll check... I usually don't notice things or details that are heard, like stuff from the soundtrack, cool sound effects, etc., I was too busy paying attention to what was onscreen when creating these threads... Geoff pointed me recently to something sound related from ep.25 for example...

Just watched this epi last night

I just wanted to say that tracking shot through all of the various locales at the end is creepy and cool as hell - BOB is eager for fun!

If local residents have seen Glastonbury Grove, wouldn't they think it a little odd that a circle of rocks is filled with engine oil?

The establishing shot of the exterior of the Great Northern and the falls (seen in many episodes) - I swear it looks like people (so tiny you can barely see them) are walking around behind the Great Northern.

Not that I want anymore JJ Wheeler, but do you think the writers would have explored in Season 3 the murder of his partner in Brazil that he left town for?  Possible FWWM Judy/Phillip Jeffries connection?

Donna's 2 younger sisters must have active social lives because they are LITERALLY never home.

Is the Bookhouse Boy helping Major Briggs in this episode different or the same as the one that got clubbed by Jones in the Bookhouse?  Their hair looks different.

Major Briggs doesn't mention knowing Windom Earle until now. Did he not mention it earlier because he wasn't aware of the investigation into Earle being in town or was it just classified?

Is the old lady with the shaking hand in the diner (who is in a ton of episodes) one of Mrs. Tremond's bingo buddies?

If Josie's spirit is in the Black Lodge, who is going to try to save it?  Harry?

How in the world did the Windom and Leo Horse know where to find the Major in the woods?

The hand shaking has just got to be BOB feeling his way back into this world and the slow motion shot of dripping coffee the shifting of time in the Lodges.

The camera shot slowly pulling away from Coop and Annie at the RR is effectively sinister.

Briggs refers to the hooded figure as a Guardian.

The final sequence through the empty town and eventually to BOB is possibly my favorite non-Lynch directed scene.  Now the story is getting back on track.
