[When Cooper is] flipping a coin to choose between two properties to investigate, the coin rolls onto the file for Dead Dog Farm. This is what staying open to the universe's signs and portents can do. Go to Full Review Keith Phipps AV Club 05/14/2017

Okay, this really isn't such a good episode, is it? And I have a feeling we're going to stay mired in the not-so-good episode stretch for a while. Go to Full Review Meredith Borders Birth.Movies.Death. 06/28/2017
I kind of liked the random Black Widow plot as she enchants the entire Twin Peaks Sheriff Department and annoys Lucy. I don't know why, but I like it. Go to Full Review Jenny Jediny Not Coming to a Theater Near You 05/31/2017
Although the unexpected return of Major Briggs lends the episode a touch of the unknown (and some much missed Peaks otherworldliness), the majority of the episode remains grounded in soap opera antics and straight up crime investigation.

Though this isn't the weakest of the second-season slump, it is the weakest of Deschanel's episodes. Go to Full Review Eric Diaz Nerdist 05/17/2017
