SUGGESTION - Well buddy, you opened it. No need to go inside. It would be *rude*.

PHYSICAL INSTRUMENT - Good job. Let's go now. I'm sure there's *nothing* interesting in there.

INTERFACING - There's *nothing* else to do than leave and tell Evrart. No *conceivable* reason for you to intrude on the premises.

INLAND EMPIRE - Only *curiosity* could account for stepping over that threshold. Maybe there's treasure in there? A white alligator? A fountain of quicksilver?

LOGIC - There *might* be important information in the apartment... I mean... there *might*...

SHIVERS - As you hold the opened door you can feel the air moving. A little draft. A whistle...

Distressing news in The Independent today:

“David Lynch has revealed he can no longer leave his house since being diagnosed with emphysema. The director of films including Eraserhead and Mulholland Drive, who created and starred in Twin Peaks, shared the revelation in a new interview about his career. Speaking to Sight & Sound magazine, Lynch, 78, said he was diagnosed with emphysema due to smoking throughout his life and said that, if he directs again, it will have to be remotely as he cannot “go out” due to fears he will get Covid. “I’ve gotten emphysema from smoking for so long and so I’m homebound whether I like it or not. It would be very bad for me to get sick, even with a cold,” he said, revealing that he “can only walk a short distance before” he’s “out of oxygen.” It’s because of this that Lynch says it is unlikely he will direct again, but if he does, he will be unable to do so in person. However, while saying “I would do it remotely if it comes to it”, he said: “I wouldn’t like that so much.””

For Lynch fans, this is obviously deeply saddening (and explains his low profile in recent years). If Inland Empire (2006) represents his last feature film and Twin Peaks: The Return (2017) his final artistic statement, Lynch’s career is ending on a creative high.

Update on this: Lynch has since posted this statement on Twitter. “Ladies and Gentlemen. Yes, I have emphysema from my many years of smoking. I have to say that I enjoyed smoking very much, and I do love tobacco - the smell of it, lighting cigarettes on fire, smoking them - but there is a price to pay for this enjoyment, and the price for me is emphysema. I have now quit smoking for over two years. Recently I had many tests, and the good news is that I am in excellent shape except for emphysema. I am filled with happiness, and I will never retire. I want you all to know that I really appreciate your concern. Love, David.” It’s worth bearing in mind Lynch is a multimedia artist so even if he never directs a film again (which let's face it, is likely) he'll still paint (for example), and he DID just release a fascinating new album called Cellophane Memories.

YOU - Sure thing. But before anything else -- can I venture to Theory Town?

LOGIC - It's very unlikely to help, but sure. We can go to Theory Town.

SAVOIR FAIRE - For starters, you could search the Whirling-in-Rags for hidden passages she could have used to get to the roof. There's a door in the *kitchen* I've had my eye on for a while...

PERCEPTION - Can't get through the door? You know what would help -- doing a *thorough* search of this room! Maybe something's hidden.

VISUAL CALCULUS - Hey! Did someone say something already? No? Yes? Who cares! Upstairs, in Klaasje's bedroom -- the window the bullet came through. Analyse that!

INLAND EMPIRE - There's a *spooky* building West of this. Take a flashlight with you, search the basement. There are secrets -- magisterial, ancient secrets that may assist you.

VOLITION - You could crack that Klaasje's defences. Maybe she'll tell you something helpful?

LOGIC - It's that simple.
