THE MUSIC FOR MILES’S MONTAGE IS A CALLBACK TO TNG. (That is in all-caps because I am screaming.) The episode where he talks about his war experience and sings some of The Minstrel Boy.

I was lost at this for a moment because I was so sure that the music was an instrumental of ‘The Way You Look Tonight’, because I nearly commented on it. But then when I went to check I realized you mean THE FLUTE BIT which KILLED ME, and which you now tell me is a reference to that episode where we learned about the friend Miles lost on Setlik III, very quote:

“that fellow who always hung around you like a puppy”

So, [NOPES MAJESTICALLY INTO A SUN]

Okay but what about Garak? is he words of affirmation too? (“if there’s one thing cardassians excel at, it’s conversation!”)

But it’s all lies!!

I actually don’t know what all the Love Languages are, hold on….

oh wait incoming:

@sherlocks-freebitch Garak can’t accept love! (it’s physical touch, for sure)

HOLY HELL

it’s unexpected, explains everything, and hurts — my preferred text

So if we cracked open that Love Languages book, Julian would be “words of affirmation” and O'Brien would be “acts of service” and/or “quality time”?

lolololol yes totally so

actually they probably overlap on “quality time” as that was the first Point Julian brought up

The Very Good:

-Dr. Jacoby’s wackadoodle talk radio program that sounds EXACTLY like something you’d find skimming through AM frequencies in the backwoods somewhere. Even better is that his audience is Jerry Horne and Nadine. (Hey girl!)

-Shelly and Norma, diner mom duo. They’re watching that cycle go ‘round again, nothing they can do about it.

-The Great Northern key going into the mailbox!! THAT SETUP.

-whoever did the casting/costuming/set design for the drugged out mother-son family is spot on. Yikes.

-the musical vibe of the Sockhop from Hell at the Roadhouse.

-that pretty wonderful credits scene choice, and the bits of Cooper that are coming on back. I was pretty sad about whatever was going on when he looked at his(?) son.

The Not Very Good:

-whatever was going on with that owl-faced mufucker at the Roadhouse. We get it! He’s a bad dude!

-Doris. Sigh.

-what was the real Dougie like, in his day-to-day life??? Is this company a front to reintegrate dementia patients into their lives or something?

The Nightmare Fuel:

-that damn MIRROR, WHY. Yeah yeah, it answers some questions, and is also juuust unnerving enough that it’s going to haunt my middle-of-the-night bathroom trips for a month.

[wellntruly]

THE SOCKHOP FROM HELL. Amazing descrip.

Anyway I super agree with all of this. Oh and because I’ve yet to mention how much I like her: Constance. I could use twice the amount of Constance.

I’m able to surrender myself to his stuff unlike anyone else. If I’m on the right place I can sit there and just let whatever happens unfold, almost like I turn off the part of my brain that articulates whether or not I like something and why. His work is really special if only for that reason alone.

I identify with this so much oh gosh??

What is his way with us

Hahaha I watched Fire Walk With Me alone in the dark and almost died, and the I watched new Twin Peaks with a friend and the lights on and my eyes closed and ALMOST DIED.

There were several moments where I was sitting there with it paused as I tried to angle my laptop screen mostly away from me, squinting through my eyelashes, whispering “I cannot believe you are making me watch this David.”
