S2, E14: Double Play

Can you feel that? Is that some of that old Twin Peaks magic? This week, we're tackling Season 2, Episode 14, "Double Play" and we like what we're seeing. In this episode of Back to the Double R: Colin says we're halfway back into the swing of things; Jennifer is on the murder beat; Jonathan is relishing the horror of it all; and Damon is seeing parallels in a noir classic! For the Twist, we inspect Coop's new uniform and ask, "What does it all mean?!"
