Kale! MacLachlan reflects on his early connection with filmmaker, David Lynch, "We had this common sense of humor, dry sense of humor, stuff we found funny that other people didn't find funny. He thought of me as someone who could take audiences into the strange worlds that he loved to create, the rich world that he creates, and the scary worlds that he creates, and take the audiences into the cave together. And with me, you'll be ok."

"Thank God for Deserie" MacLachlan exclaims, boasting about his wife, who forced him into his appearance on Sex and the City. "She said to me 'You're doing it', and I said 'Really?', and she said 'Yeah!'. Because she knew the zeitgeist, she knew everything."
