- TriviaFinal appearance by Warren Frost (Doc Hayward), who died in February 2017. There's a dedication for him at the end.
- GoofsWhen the diary pages are first shown from Hawk's perspective, the third page from the left shows the text containing the sentence "I know who it is". But when Hawk later gives that page to Sheriff Truman, he flips the page over so that Truman can read the above-mentioned text. That is, the diary page was flipped between the two shots. Had it not been flipped, the text on the other side of the page would have been visible.
- Quotes
Deputy Chief Tommy 'Hawk' Hill: She said that these words from Annie came to her in a dream. This thing she said: "The good Dale is in the lodge and can't come out". But Harry saw Cooper come out of the lodge with Annie that night. Doc and Harry took him over to the Great Northern. But if the good Cooper is in the lodge and can't come out, then the one who came out of the lodge with Annie that night... was not the good Cooper.

Plot lines finally get moving in 57 minutes of pure enjoyment
I really loved this episode. I felt like it really got things moving in a way they just haven't been since Part 4. The Return was not made as a TV show, it was written and edited as an 18-hour movie, and a David Lynch movie at that. By consequence, the way it splits up into episodes does not in any way coincide with any peaks or rhythms in the story. You just get an hour a week. That means that sometimes it's good, sometimes it's great, and sometimes it's an hour of pure atmosphere with little progression whatsoever. It certainly doesn't help that we got the first four hours all at once. I say all this because these are the pitfalls that some of the previous episodes have fallen into and that this one most certainly does not fall into. This Part was 57 minutes of pure enjoyment for me. It was full of brilliant moments and managed to spend time with a whole lot of story lines while also focusing on a couple and giving them the screen time they needed to really get rolling. I feel like almost as much progress was made in this one episode as there was in the first four parts combined.
While the episode visits a lot of story lines, there are two that receive multiple scenes and make major progression in this one; the Diane/Albert/Doppelcoop story and Hawk's investigation in Twin Peaks. Seeing as they've been nudged along at a snail's pace of a scene a week or every other week up till now, it was incredibly satisfying to see them not only get screen time, but a lot of major development. I was particularly glad that we weren't left on the massive cliffhanger with Diane from last week. Not only did we see here again, but we got deep into developing her character. I have to admit that I wasn't sure about the idea of introducing her into the show as a character, but now that we've gotten to know her and a bit about why she is the way she is, I totally buy it. I loved her scene with Doppelcoop because they never outright state what happened, they only strongly imply it. I think the bluntness of her or Coop or Albert saying it would rob the scene of its power. As it is, it is perfectly shocking and haunting.
All in all I don't have much to say about this one, other than that I really enjoyed it. I'm glad we got to see more of Ben Horne. The Doc Hayward scene was fun but sad due to the circumstances. And finally, thanks to this episode and the last one, Janey-E is rapidly becoming one of my favourite characters in the Return. I hope she doesn't die a horrible death.
