Warning: spoilers for the first five episodes of the new Twin Peaks

Well, we are almost one-third of the way into the return of the cult classic TV series Twin Peaks, and David Lynch and company have certainly provided a mystery-packed five episodes so far. The concern, with so many plot lines and a cast list boasting 217 actors, is which stories will be resolved by the end of the season’s run.

First off, let’s talk about the heart and soul of the revival, Kyle MacLachlan’s Agent Dale Cooper. We have yet to be reunited with the coffee and donut-loving, quirky FBI agent we remember from the show’s original run. That Agent Cooper escaped the Black Lodge, only to be trapped in doppelgänger Dougie Jones, unable to convey to anyone his true identity. The Evil Cooper is in jail, trying to keep from being sucked back into the Black Lodge. In the last episode, “Dougie” perked up when given “case files” and hearing the word “agent,” but, the episode closed with him staring at a statue as day turned to night. It seems the good agent won’t be joining us anytime soon.

As for some of the series’ returning characters, we meet Mädchen Amick’s character Shelly’s daughter, Becky Burnett, played by Amanda Seyfried, who shares her mother’s horrible taste in men. Becky is married to Steven Burnett, a loser who can’t seem to land a job and is fond of the nose candy. (Steven is played by Caleb Landry Jones, who played the awful brother to Allison Williams in the recent hit movie Get Out. And yes, I did have to Google that. I recognized him, but just couldn’t place the face.) Fun fact: Steven is rejected for a job by Mike Nelson (played by Gary Hershberger), who was partners in crime with Bobby Briggs back during the days of the original series. Some amateur Twin Peaks sleuths are positing that Becky may be the new Laura Palmer.

Speaking of Laura Palmer, Sheryl Lee, the actress who plays the doomed high school student, spoke with Vulture about returning to the role that made her famous. When asked if Laura will pop up again on the revival, she said “It’s not even like I know! I’m watching it with you guys. I can’t wait to see what happens on Sunday. It’s like a dream world, it’s not meant to be dissected.”

As a fan of the original series, I’m happy to see so many returning favorites, like Laura, the Log Lady (Catherine Coulson, RIP), Nadine Hurley (Wendy Robie) and even David Duchovny’s agent Denise Bryson. But where is Audrey Horne, played by Sherilyn Fenn? The actress isn’t in the iMDB’s cast listing for the show, but it’s rumored that she’s making a return. According to the 2016 novel The Secret History of Twin Peaks, written by the series’ co-creator, Mark Frost, Audrey was saved in the explosion in the bank vault by Pete Martell (played by Jack Nance, from Lynch’s Eraserhead, who sadly passed away in 1996). While Audrey is still M.I.A., there is another Horne on the scene.

Near the end of the fifth episode, we meet an unsavory character at the Bang Bang Club, who assaults a female patron. His name? Richard Horne (played by Eamon Farren). Is he Audrey’s child? If so, who’s the father? With her pretty obvious crush on the good Agent Dale, Audrey could have been deceived and seduced by Evil Cooper. And, in the brief scene, we could definitely see a dark resemblance between the two of them.

Even though there are still 13 more hours to go, the burning question tally is rising quickly. What happened to Matthew Lillard’s charter, a school principal accused of murder? What happened to the black box in New York that caused the demise of Sam (Benjamin Rosenfield) and Tracy (Madeline Zima)? How come Major Garland Briggs’ fingerprints keep showing up places after his demise? How many more story lines can they possibly cram into this show? And where can I pick up my own Dr. Amp’s Gold S**t-Digging Shovel? I need one desperately, and I have $29.99 to spare.
