S2, E8: Drive with a Dead Girl

BRR-IMAGES-S2-E8-NORMA.jpeg

How do you solve a problem like Bob? Leland is whistling show tunes and cutting a rug as Bob spirits away Maddy Ferguson’s body in his golf bag. It’s a nostalgia-filled nightmare in the pivotal Season 2, Episode 8, “Drive with a Dead Girl.” This week, Jonathan pays tribute to the amazing Peggy Lipton; Jennifer asks what those Horne boys are up to; Damon contemplates Bob unleashed; and Colin looks at the deadly allure of the bad old days. Our Twist this week is of an avian nature, featuring some bonus shoutouts to a couple of Pacific Northwest legends.
