The second installment of our five-part look at Fire Walk With Me takes us to Twin Peaks in the late winter of 1989. We follow Laura Palmer as she interacts with her friends and family in the week leading up to her death. The tragic circumstances of her life are finally revealed in all their harrowing ugliness, and the mythology of the Lodges are explored in greater detail than ever before. But we still have no idea what's going on.

We're joined by former guests Aaron, Nathan, and Tasha, who returned to give us their views on the film. We also enlisted the brainpower of two total Twin Peaks newbies--Olivia and Simon--who haven't seen any of the original series and who are here to tell us if Fire Walk With Me can stand apart from a TV series they have never watched before.

Don't change that channel, friends--we're gonna turn this up. side. down!
