• I'll take this... the link is being goofy for some reason though. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:43, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

• You've got series co-creator followed by co-series creator. Which one is correct?
  •  Done. TBrandley 15:58, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
• "visits the residence of Harold Smith to find Smith has committed suicide." - What do you think of "visits the residence of Harold Smith to find he has committed suicide."
  •  Done. TBrandley 16:02, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
• "a casino and brother he owns"... just pointing it out.

  Fixed. GRAPPLE X 17:06, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

• It's called "Episode 7" but links to ep8?
  • It is suppose to be like that, as it would still link to Episode 7. It does that because "Episode 1" is counted as ep0. TBrandley 16:55, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
    • "Pilot" is followed by "Episode 1", throwing the name and numbers off; "ep8" is the table anchor for Episode 7 as it's the eighth entry. Trust me, if that was the weirdest thing about Twin Peaks it'd probably still be running. GRAPPLE X 17:06, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
• "character was left somewhat redeemed." - In this episode? How?

  I've edited that a little to reflect that it's his words; though I assume he means to say that Leland wasn't really the killer, BOB was. GRAPPLE X 17:06, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

• Quote from Phipps could be shorter

  Trimmed those down quite a bit. GRAPPLE X 17:15, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

• Fix the CN tags (mostly direct quotes)

  Some of these direct quotes in the plot summary are from the episode itself; I've paraphrased some but left one or two shorter ones alone as there's no point citing the article's subject in an article about itself. GRAPPLE X 17:06, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

• File:David lynch grayscale.jpg needs the actual uploader's information. However, the source image (File:David lynch.jpg) looks like a possible copyvio. No EXIF data, web resolution... Have been unable to find a source though.

  Replaced it with File:David Lynch at the 1990 Emmy Awards.jpg, it's much more contemporary and seems to have no issues with copyright. GRAPPLE X 17:06, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  If you need any of the Highbeam sources, email me; I'm afraid I can't do anything about the USA Today ones though as I already needed an another editor to look them up for me, but I'm sure I could get them passed on if you need them. GRAPPLE X 17:16, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  *Shakes head* Grapple, Grapple, Grapple... I have Highbeam privileges too. That's how I could check Mondo Cane. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:22, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  "Grapple, Grapple, Grapple" is my favourite bedroom technique. GRAPPLE X 23:24, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  That could hurt. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:39, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  Quite a bit. GRAPPLE X 23:41, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  Ten times as much, indeed. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:54, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

  Tell me about it. Just ask my brother Malcolm. GRAPPLE X 00:00, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

  On a serious note, everything seems fine but I'd still like to check the AV club references. Could you send them to me? For some reason I can't open them. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

  The A.V. Club ones? Ray Wise interview and episode review. GRAPPLE X 00:10, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

  (edit conflict) (talk page stalker) That's weird. The links works fine on my browser (Firefox). Huh. TBrandley 00:12, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

  I'm getting "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.". Have been since I first tried opening the links. I have a question for you up there too. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:16, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

  Fair do (loading for me though). I'll copy-paste them in an email for you. As for the question, as wonderful as Jack Nance is, the Mr Tojamura plot arc is one of those minor soap-opera threads they introduced that doesn't amount to much, but just padded for time between this ep and the freakout ending. GRAPPLE X 00:24, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

Indonesian internet, what can I say? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:28, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

• Alright, passing. Looks good. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:37, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
