This is probably the best penultimate episode ever, although it is a Finale Part One so idk if that counts.
As with the whole season, it had unbelievable cinematography with the most goofy visual effects 😭😭 ( although Young Laura's CGI was pretty good ). This episode defines Twin Peaks and involves pretty much every significant character and plot line, I'm so happy the main focus went back to Laura.
Part 18 will be needed to fully appreciate this as well as a rewatch to see where it ranks overall but it's definitely top 5 in the show.
