No Knock,No Doorbell

All Praises to the Lynch! Hallelujah 
Episode 16
                Only one more week to the end. I am not ready for this show to go.What Mark Frost and David Lynch have created with this show is pure art.I know it has to end or it would easily degrade into disappointment. Much like parts of season two of the original run.Eventually, these artists would lose control of the brush.
Would someone please manufacture a fourth season of this show?

We begin on a dark road.
             Driving with Daddy. Richard and the Bad Dale ease on down the road. Destination unknown.Nothing plays on the radio.They move in silence.
             I am in love with the opening soundtrack piece. Is this another one of David Lynch’s extreme slowing down of a familiar song that has been so prevalent throughout this season? I hope this piece is on the soundtrack to be released next month.
Long dirt back road in the middle of nowhere.
Silence
             Are they at one of the coordinates already? 3 People have given him coordinates to this place.Two of them matched.Who are the three? Ray?Jeffries?.....Diane?
Who do we know that have seen a coordinates in question? Hastings secretary.Ruth(he could have gotten them from her dead body if he killed her).Ray.Albert.Gordon.Tammy.Diane.
            A large rock sits atop a hill in an empty field.
          
           From out of the dark comes a running Jerry.How long has he been running?And did his “not” foot take him in this direction?Are we still near Twin Peaks?Have these two been driving all night to get here or are we onto the next day?
           He attempts to see what has most likely been the first people he has come across since getting lost in the woods by using his (bad ,bad!) binoculars.....backwards.
          “Dear God.” Has he lost his mind?Is he just realizing how fried he is?Did he mix his stuff with Sparkle?

Bad Binoculars ..bad bad bad

He watches as the Bad Dale sends Richard running up that hill to make a deal with the Black Lodge gods to the magic spot.As Richard steps on the exact locations ....he is suddenly electrocuted alive by unseen forces.They sizzlean his horrible self till he simply explodes into nothing. The last remnants of his sparking head bouncing down the rock as he becomes nothing.
         So what does this say about the two people who gave him the same coordinates.Who were they and did they know that this would be the end result?Were they trying to send the Bad Dale to his death?


Need a little ...OOOOOH Shock Treatment!

Or was one given with intent to help the Bad Dale ,but the person providing did not know the outcome?




The Bad Dale says "Goodbye,my Son". Is this just a farewell phrase? or does this finally confirm he really is the Richards father,an act that had to be the result of rape of a comatose Audrey.

Catch you with my death bag....is that bag ...smiling?

The Bad Dale sends a text before departing ":-)All" . Its 2:05 am
I think of the poem Mike said about his old pal :He is BOB,eager for fun,he wears a smile.......everybody run."


Las Vegas
Hutch and Chantal pull up and prepare to go to work.
         They are outside the Jones'. The Las Vegas FBI pull up and ring and knock on the door.No Answer. The Good Dale and Janey-E must be at the hospital.They leave Wilson to stake out the house.



            At the hospital,The Good Dale is in a coma.Vital signs are strong.The Mitchum brothers arrive with flowers...and finger sandwiches.The Mitchum brothers have brought food,because who wants to eat hospital food.They also ask to borrow Janey-Es house key as they wish to stock the house up with food as well.




             Two things come to mind. 1) Once again, the presence of the Good Dale seems to bring out the best behavior in others. 2) These will be yet another interruption for Hutch and Chantal.Could all this activity scare them off? Or might they decide to take on one of these folks for a little torture time to get them to say where their target is hiding? And are we sure their target is "Dougie" not Janey-E?
Buckhorn


                Gordon stands in their situation room.The beep that we heard on the Good Dales heart meter can be heard beeping in the background of this scene as well. Gordon is listening to something.Has he just been given a piece of information an is pondering the outcome?
Back in Las Vegas
                Sonny Jim has to use the little boys room.While they leave the room,Bushnell receives a call from Phil at the Lucky 7 insurance office. The FBI have just been there looking for "Dougie" and are now on their way to the hospital.
              Outside the Jones' now sits Hutch and Chantal in their van and down the street, the FBI in their SUV.Forces are coming together.For what could be an epic shootout.



                  Then moments later,up pull the Mitchum Brothers with their "circus parade " of supplies. Hutch asks if one of those men is "Dougie" .An agitated Chantal says do any of them look like our boss?" So it would appear that "Dougie" is indeed the target.
                 Chantal is on her last bag of Cheetos.And not dealing with it well.
                 Up pulls a Polish man in a car ,emblazoned with Zawaski Accounting ,right in front of their van. He tells them they are in front of his driveway and Hutch and Chantal tell him to fuck off.  He tells them "he move car" and gets back in his own vehicle which he then slams into their van and begins to push them out of the way. Burning rubber.
                 After a minute of this,Chantal moves to the front seat, pulls out her gun and shoots the driver. Appearing to hit him in the arm.He gets out of his car and moves to the back of the vehicle and opens the trunk.He pulls out his own gun and shoots her in the arm as well. Chantal slams into the mans car and pulls away.But as she does, he unloads his gun into the van. Hitting Chantal and Hutch several times.He then reloads and unloads another clip into the van,killing Hutch.




The FBI watch all this ,not interfering, gobsmacked as the bullet ridden van rolls on by slowly.

What the fuck kind of neighborhood is this?

                 The Mitchum Brothers come out of the Jones,guns in hand "What the fuck kind of neighborhood is this?" Apparently a stressful one.
                As the van rolls to a stop, the FBI step out of their vehicle and tell the accountant to drop his gun and put his hands up.



                 That takes care of the Chantal/Hutch assassination threat. Now no one is out to end "Douglas Jones" .Janey-E and Sonny Jim are safe. The Luck of the Cooper .

Hospital
            The strange humming noise from the Great Northern can suddenly be heard.It draws Bushnell’s attention as he searches for its source and steps out of the "Dougies" room.
Mike appears,standing in the Red Room .
DALE COOPER SITS UP IN HIS BED !!!!!
He pulls the tubes out of his mouth. Mike says "You are awake"
DALE COOPER SPEAKS....
let me repeat that ......
DALE COOPER SPEAKS !!!



"100 percent" he replies



                   Mike:(and every one of us watching in unison) says : Finally
Mike tells Dale Cooper that "The Other One" did not come back and is still out there. He present Cooper with the Owl Cave ring


                  Cooper then ask,insistently" Do you have the seed?"
Mike presents the seed,a golden sphere, but does not hand over. Cooper pulls some hairs out from the back of his head and says " I need you to make another one.". Will this be a replacement "Dougie" for when he leaves LasVegas?Does Cooper know he is not coming back....at all, after this and wants something to exist to care for Janey-e and Sonny Jim?
Mike"I understand"
Mike fades away.
           Janey-E and Sonny Jim return to the room, surprised to see "Dougie" sitting upright. Cooper hugs Sonny Jim and tells Janey-E to get a doctor.Things start moving at a quicker pace, reflecting the alertness of Cooper
           The Doctor arrives and after a quick appraisal of Coopers vitals agrees that he can leave immediately. Cooper instructs Janey-E to get the car and pull it out front. As she does , both she and Sonny comment on how "Dougie” is sure talking a lot"
           Once they have left and he is dressed, Cooper asks for for the gun that Bushnell keeps under his arm.Cooper is really woke 100%. His powers of observation are working in full force. He ask for Bushnell to call the Mitchum Brothers. They quickly get on the line and Cooper tells the Brothers that he is bringing Janey-E and Sonny to the casino and that he is in need of a plane ride to Spokane Washington.
           The Twin Peaks theme kicks in......COOPER IS RETURNING TO TWIN PEAKS!!! (let the tears of happiness flow.This moment is so beautiful)


                   Cooper hands Bushnell a message for Gordon Cole who he anticipates calling the hospital.What might the note say? "Off to Twin Peaks.Back in 25" ? "I'm at the Sheriff's Station"?
              Being Cooper, he shakes Bushnell hand and says" You're a fine man, I will not soon forget your kindness and decency" This is such a Dale Cooper thing for him to say.
                  As he walks out the hospital room door, Bushnell calls out "What about the FBI?"


"I AM THE FBI"Cooper replies.
          
            If Cooper had given the thumbs up, I think I might have been reduced to a blubbering mess.This moment was perfect.Epic.The music, the return,the energy of the story moving forward.
           Cooper comes out of the hospital gets in the drivers seat ,much to the surprise of both Janey-E and Sonny Jim.They have not seen “Dougie” move talk ,let alone drive like this in some time now.As Cooper takes the wheel and heads to the casino, the FBI pulls up.



                Diane sits in the hotel bar. She receives a text and checks her phone.The message she sees is from the Bad Dale. It hits her like a punch.
                She was not expecting this? This signal that he is still alive? Or is it something else?Could this have been a trigger.A signal to her subconscious that awakes a sleeper agent.
               Shuddering, she says to herself "Oh, Coop. I remember." and enters in a sequence of numbers 48551420117163956

" I hope this works" Hits send .

               Might this be Diane, as a fourth person, sending the Bad Dale the correct coordinates? We never saw her send the Bad Dale a set of coordinates before,nor heard Albert say he caught her sending the information.Granted we are not shown every second of their lives and it just needed to be established that Diane was sending communications to someone. It was never clearly established that she was sending the responses TO the Bad Dale.Just that she was being sent the communications that the Bad Dale had been shown sending. They could have been forwarded to her via someone else.Though,what we learn next seems to indicate hard that Diane has been working with the Bad Dale for some time.
                  
               She steadies herself and with a determined ,but slow pace,makes to the elevator
               We see that Diane is armed.
               The slowed down American woman last heard when we first saw The Bad Dale enter into the story plays on the soundtrack.
"I know my worth and who I am
Mister, if your hard up,
I can spare a few grand"
Hell will freeze over
and Ill be damned
Before I take orders
From any ol' man
Do I look like......

An American Woman



                  Diane stops in front of one of the hotel room doors at the end of a hall.
From inside ,before she knocks , Gordon says "Come in Diane"
"You asked me about the night that Cooper came to visit me" She says.
                 I NEVER thought we would hear about this event. I was sure it would have remained one of those unresolved mysteries.Throughout her story, every movement towards her purse has an air of dread that she will pull that gun out and use it on her self or someone else.She begins:
“3,maybe 4 years after I had stopped hearing from Cooper.
I was still working at the Bureau
One night, no knock ,no doorbell he just walked in
I was standing in my living room
(exhales soflty,remembering)
Oh, I was so happy to see him
I held him so close
and we sat on my sofa
started talking
I just wanted to hear everything
about where he'd been and what he'd been doing
(she exhales sharply and puts her hands up to her neck)
HE only wanted to know about what had been going on at the Bureau
It felt like he was grilling me
But, I told myself he was just excited to hear about bureau news
And then he leaned in



....he leaned in to kiss me
It only happened once before,
But as soon as his lips touched mine, something went wrong
And I felt afraid
And he saw the fear in me
HE smiled
And his face ..(she makes a hand movement to indicate there was a change.We know what she saw in that moment.Few can see him.The Gifted...and the Damned)
...and that’s when it started
HE RAPED ME.


 Afterward , he took me somewhere ...somewhere like an old gas station
(Diane looks at the text message again, it appears to spark another memory,like before)
I'm in the sheriffs station
I sent him those coordinates
I’m in the sheriff's station because I'm not me...I'm not me ....



(It sounded a bit to me like she was actually saying “I’m not A me” as in I’m not a person.I’m not real.)
*sobbing and in some internal struggle* Diane reaches into her purse and goes for the gun.
Anticipating this, Albert has already gone for his.As Diane pulls out the gun as if to shoot Gordon, she is shot by both Albert and Tammy.



                      But then suddenly in a rush ,Diane’s body thrusts forward as it disappears,expelled from the room and reality.We hear her scream in the distance.
WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPENED?
                Diane is not Diane.She was manufactured?! But this manufactured version still recalls who she used to be? in this moment? Was that what struck her-the memories.Like when BOB left Leland.All at once.She recalls who she is,what she is,and what she must do.Did the Bad Dale lace her manufactured memories with the order to kill so that when she remembered what she was she couldn’t deny what she was made to do?Did that text from the Bad Dale wake the sleeper agent in Diane and send her on the order to kill Gordon?Or any of the FBI close to catching up with the Bad Dale? We know that the Lodge residents like BOB can make individuals forget things.Especially if they had been inside them.
               How does she hope to help Cooper by sending those numbers, the correct coordinates?Does she think by sending the Bad Dale to this moment could be what brings him to an end?Since so many people know the Bad Dale is heading in that direction.
She's in a sheriffs station? Could this mean, that the real Diane is inside Naido?is Naido?......D..I...A...N...O.....and Naido was her name-O?
              Could this possibly mean Diane is the infamous Judy?The Bad Dale HAS met her.
Or could Naido be ALL of the missing women of Twin Peaks.Parts Judy,Diane,...Laura?
If "Diane" senses that she is in a sheriffs station, does this mean that manufactured versions can sense where their counterparts are in the world? Or is there something else at hand, the Woodsmen/Lodge residents use the convenience store....is there a white lodge equivalent that is a sheriffs station. We already have a Fireman who could put out black flame.Why not a Sheriffs station full of spirits that restore order?
How many more in this town have been manufactured?
Gordon is nonplussed.Tammy makes a pronouncement-That was a real tulpa
Diane is shown sitting in the red room.Mike declares:Someone manufactured you.



Diane says: I know.......Fuck you



               She then is un-manufactured. A golden seed emerges from the hole that appears in her head. She vibrates with energy and black smoke, then dissolves.There is a spark of electricity and then nothing is left but white smoke and the seed on the seat of the chair.



Just like the manufactured Dougie before.




                    I am suddenly reminded of something from last episode."My Log is turning GOLD" Could this be a reference to the manufacturing seed we have seem several times? Was the Log manufactured for the Log Lady?
I KNEW DIANE WOULD NOT BETRAY COOPER.
                 This Diane was manufactured to do bad.But this raises the question.Where is Diane?Is she locked in a hotel room at the Dutchman? Did the Woodsmen kill her in the manufacturing process?If what we have seen earlier in this episode, the original does not have to be destroyed to manufacture a copy.Cooper is alive, and was able to request a duplicate with just a lock of his hair(presumably with the roots intact) Her manufactured self says "I am at the Sheriffs station" Is this a reference to Naido? Could Naido be the key to the return of all those that have been lost?
Las Vegas.
                At the casino, Cooper pulls Janey-E and Sonny Jim aside to explain what he has to do.Even the Mitchum brothers comment on the assurance with which "Dougie" now speaks.
Cooper says : I have to go away for awhile. But I wanted to tell you how much Ive enjoyed spending time with both of you.You've made my heart so full."
              They indeed have.Coopers heart and self is back inside him. And it is thanks to their love and compassion and caring for him in his troubled state of mind.
               Cooper continues " We're a family.Dougie,(he stops himself,they dont know what has happened and don’t need to be troubled with this version of reality) I mean ..I ....will be back
But Janey-E suddenly realizes " You're not Dougie?"
Sonny Jim begins to cry" You not my Dad?...You are my Dad "
Cooper stops him" I AM your ,Dad, and I love you both."
              
                  There is pain in Coopers eyes as he says this.I don't think he likes lying to these two,even in this moment.That he understands the pain and confusion that he is causing this young boy and he can't do anything about it.
He embraces them both



                            Cooper tells them he has to go ...."You'll see me soon.I'll walk through that red door and I will be home for good."
Cooper gets up and walks away.
Janey-E chases after him,turning him around. softly pleading" Don't Go"
Cooper tells her " I have to go"
She looks into his eyes. Who is this magic man?
She kisses him
"Whoever you are. Thank you." she says.



                  I am glad that both Sonny Jim and Janey-E are alive.From the beginning I feared that something bad would happen to one, or both.That this pain would have been the act to have woken Cooper. That by being so close to The Good Dale, who was being hunted by many ,they would have been collateral damage.
                  But despite the endless possibilities for pain,they saw nothing but pleasure.Good luck abounded in this short time that the Good Dale was in their presence.And though ,Cooper is now leaving them for an uncertain future, they are not completely lost. If Mike comes through, a version of Cooper/Dougie WILL walk through that red door and return home. While this may very well be the last time we see them, their story is not over.
                  In the limo, Cooper is enjoying a cup of coffee.Cooper tells him his story,all 25 years of it. The Mitchum brothers tell Cooper that ,though he needs to get to a sheriffs station in Twin Peaks, they would not be welcome in such a place.
                  Cooper,stating observations as only Cooper can, tells them that he has himself seen that they both have hearts of gold. Seeing the best in people ,as always.
Roadhouse
             Edward Lewis Severson is tonight’s musical guest.It’s actually Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder on acoustic guitar singing a song titled "Out of Sand" Indeed. with only one two hour episode left to go.We are all out of time.(oh,wait, that’s an REM album)
And finally, Audrey and her "husband" Charlie enter the Roadhouse.
               She's looking around the bar in all directions.For Billy.
They both take a seat at the bar.He orders two martin's and proposes a toast
"To us”
She counters with "To Billy"
From the stage the MC announces :Ladies and Gentlemen.....Audrey's Dance"
             In an instant....the entire patrons of the bar vacate the dance floor and step to the sides.
A moment passes....and then "Audrey's Dance" by Angelo Badalamenti begins
            Audrey closes her eyes , slips into a trance and slides onto the dance floor .She begins to dance as we seen her do many times before.



My thoughts in this moment: "I only want to one time see you laughing ....I only wanted to see you laughing in the purple rain

She dances alone in the middle of the floor while the bar watches.Sways behind her.
Suddenly ,this strange moment of peace in her head is shattered by someone shouting from off screen at another across the bar. A husband has caught his wife cheating.A fight breaks out.



Audrey runs to Charlie and pleads to him.."Get me out of here"




There is a cut to Audrey.In a white room.Staring into her reflection in a mirror.Like us, she too is surprised by this and reacts,echoing the audiences response :"What?"



Cut to black.
Next week is the final part of this epic show.
So many mysteries remain.
The Coordinates?
           
                Why does the Bad Dale want the correct ones?What or who does he hope to find at that point?Mother of Abomination?Judy?Naido?
Who were the three to provide him with these numbers?
                 Ray, we saw give him a slip of paper with the coordinates on them.Its likely these were the ones that led to Richards shocking moment. Ray could have tampered with them, but I imagine that who ever is working to stop the Bad Dale would have provided coordinates that lead to the shocking end.
                Phillip Jeffries? These too, were likely to have sent the Bad Dale to the bad spot.
But who was the third?
                   Diane? we never saw her send the coordinates before,nor heard Albert inform Gordon that she had done so.She sends her set of numbers to the Bad Dale immediately AFTER the “Surprise,I’m alive” message.Did she do this because she knows she is being monitored?That Albert will catch them and communicate them to Gordon.And in this moment she suddenly remembers everything about who or what she really is and she wants to make sure the FBI gets to the right place to stop the Bad Dale because she wont exist much longer? If she is just now sending the Bad Dale the correct coordinates than might she have sent wrong the ones before?Intentionally, or accidentally? Then that could make her and Phillip who gave the Bad Dale the same coordinates.Both being individuals who posses Lodge knowledge, they would be likely to have access to this information over someone like Ray who is just a hired trucker thug. Rays numbers came from Hastings secretary.But we do not know where the secretary obtained them. Albert,Gordon and Diane get their numbers from Ruth’s arm.
                 Phillip has access to Lodge knowledge and could know of all entry and energy points, but his overall motivation is unknown.It is still unclear if he was the one the Bad Dale spoke with earlier in the show. That Phillip,made have been Gerard.BOBs former partner in crime.Phillip is a former FBI agent who went missing in his pursuit of Lodge knowledge.He is now kept safely hidden away and/or potentially working with the Woodsmen.He has possibly evolved into some Lodge world object of power.What purpose would he have to help or hinder the Bad Dales quest if he, himself ,has joined forces with these same dark spirits that have assisted the Bad Dale in his activities over the last 25 years? The Bad Dale has been breaking the laws of Lodge land for years, wouldn't Philip be concerned that one day the Bad Dale would come to end him?And therefore wish to remove him as a threat.
              Who could be the third? And in what combination were the providers of the bad vs good coordinates?


The Frog Moth?
           Who was the little girl it crawled into? This seed of evil birthed a monstrosity that then invaded a little girl.Have we seen this little girl as an adult anywhere in the history of the series? She was not given a name in the credits .Something that has been done to hide reveals in later episodes.Will we learn more of her fate and what that creature inside her did to or made her do?

Who is Judy?
           And ....Why does the Bad Dale seek her after all this time?Could there be a possibility that Judy is......Major Garland Briggs?.......Judy...Judy Garland...Garland Briggs....Judy is a code name? Lynch is known for having a special place in his art for The Wizard of Oz. What a better way to hide who is the person behind the code name than to choose a name that reverses the gender. Jeffries spoke of Judy, maybe Phillip saw Briggs “hibernating” on the other side after he found the owl cave ring and saw the convenience store meeting?

Who is Linda?
           Two Birds ,one stone. Richard was killed while standing on a stone.Could this relate to Linda’s arrival?Or could it have meant all along that two little birds were born from one stone, one Bad Dale? The rape of Audrey....and the rape of Diane.
            Could this be another child of the Bad Dale? Could it be a child from the rape of Diane by the Bad Dale? Diane most likely left the FBI after this incident.Diane could have carried the child to term and given it up for adoption, not wanting to live with the result of her rape.Not wanting to have to face this hard memory of Cooper every day after. Its unlikely that this is the case,though, as right after the rape ,the Bad Dale took Diane to the convenience store to be manufactured by the Woodsmen.So who is Linda?An as yet unknown lady who could be a new version of Laura?This time as a red head? A manufactured version?
Where is Diane?
           If the one we have been with has been a manufactured version of her , one that is made to serve the Bad Dale, where is the original? Is she still alive? Locked in the lodge?In a room in the Dutchman?Inside someone? In Naido? She says she is in a sheriffs station. Is she inside something in the sheriffs station?(Like Josie in the doorknob). Could these strange Lodge spirits have placed her inside Agent Coopers old tape recorder ,which may be now sitting in a evidence locker in Twin Peaks?

Where is Laura?
             Laura is the one.Where is she in all this? For a character that was so central to so much of the original series (despite being a corpse) and the driving force behind the events of the movie Fire Walk With Me, she hasn’t been a huge part of this story.Her diary pages were found, but they only seemed to be of use to confirm the existence of Two Coopers.There was nothing new inside them that was a surprise to the faithful viewer. The golden orb spirit full of Laura is shown being sent down to earth after the birth of the abominations, but so far has not been shown again. Was it simply sent down to battle BOB in the version of the story we have already witnessed in FWWM and her Secret Diary?
            A moth frog in the ointment of this thought is that Leland was possessed by BOB during the time Laura was born till her death.So BOB could have been the father of Laura. He could have been in control of Leland at the moment of conception.Is this why her naturally golden spirit was also prone to do bad things? to hurt others who loved her?That she was, despite her being sent to destroy him, part BOB?
             Leland's Doppelganger asked for Cooper to "Find Laura".Where has she gone?Shes dead , yet she lives?Has she been manufactured into a new version?Linda? Is she inside her Mother,protecting her from men who try to do Sarah harm? Or was that the Mother of Abomination inside Sarah?
           
 I've said it many times before.......       
Still holding out hope that the end of the show will be Cooper actively choosing to return to the Red Room .After all it did to him . In aid of finding Laura.Showing Laura her missing Angel.Freeing her tortured soul.Ending the series like the ending of Fire Walk With Me.
               With one last stop at the Roadhouse where Julee Cruise sings "Falling"

What happened to Sarah?
           HOW did she end up with that darkness inside her?Sure, she has had a tragic story.And her pain must be exquisite Garmonbozia to enjoy. But did this become her fate?

Where is Audrey?!!
           It would appear that she is in a hospital.We glimpse her in closeup.Yet it appears that she is wearing a hospital gown.And in this final moment she has woken up in the hospital.
Finally seeing herself? Or is this just another one of her episodes.How often could this happen?How long does she stay inside this dream?
            It is of note that this episode has several moments of individuals waking from their fantasy or dream. Cooper, of course.Janey-E from her Dougie dream life.Audrey from.......
...but waking up from where? A coma? Unlikely,that she has been in a coma all this time.How could she have shown Richard the photo of Cooper. Perhaps waking from her mental break?
              Could she have woken up in the moment during the Bad Dales rape of her in the hospital.The one that resulted in the conception of Richard Horne?This would have shattered her already bruised mind.The result of the bank explosion would have done a lot of damage to her mental stability already .Add to that ,waking up during the most violent betrayal from the man she loved and admired and she has most likely escaped into a fantasy from time to time to ignore the anguish and pain.
Interesting to observe that this fantasy even has some slices of reality interwoven into the dream.She lived inside a dream.How often was she inside?
              Who raised Richard if Audrey had been in the hospital all this time? Benjamin Horne probably didn’t have too much of a hand in raising Richard.HE even said , the boy never had a father.Benjamin was not even that good of a father to Audrey. Audrey’s mother would have had her hands full with Johnny. Could Audrey have tried to raise the boy, but with Richards own mental issues, did this drive her into the hospital?

How’s Annie?
            Wheres Annie? Is Annie?She has not been removed completely from the story. Her name is mentioned only briefly by Hawk in connection with Cooper and the Lodge.But that is it. No account of her whereabouts.No questions from others who were not aware of the situation. Even Norma doesn’t directly speak of her sister. When questioned about her previously indicating that she didn’t have any family to Walter .She replies that she does. Could Annie be in the same place as Audrey?

The Secret History of Twin Peaks:
             There has still been no concrete hint as to why details in the book fail to match known facts from the series.While there were obvious errors of time ,place ,and people. Will there be a reveal in the last episode? Will we see the crime scene where it is found?Will it tie into the manufacturing of people in this town? Manufactured memories?
             There is a second book due to be released months after the final episode. If the show doesn’t provide an answer, perhaps this tome will.

  1. Random thoughts: We have seen a form of resolution for Nadine,Big Ed,and Norma's stories.What will be the end of Shelly,Bobby and Red?As well,Shelly's daughter Becky,and her husband Steven?Red is the supplier of the new drug with terrible side effects that has spread through the town.Shelly has become involved with Red,someone who is probably more violent than her last husband,Leo. Bobby is with the police and looking to deal with Becky's husband Steven who was last seen in the woods going off the deep end on the drug.The indication is that he has taken his own life.But then we never saw his body.His body could lead to Bobby investigating the drug found in his system which leads him to ask Becky questions which,in turn, could lead back to whoever is selling for Red and then to Red.( a lot of ground to cover with just two hours to go,but something story-wise could be accomplished with indications that some of this has already occurred off screen) .Ideally, I would love to a see a scene where Red tries to threaten Shelly with physical violence and she kicks his ass.Let say:Shelly hears about Becky's husband taking his life and she wants to go to her daughter but Red won't let her.He threatens her,strikes her, but she then turns the tables on her abuser and escapes. All the while, Bobby has been tracking down the drugs slipping into town and has followed the trail back to Red.Before Red can retaliate with further violence towards Shelly ,Bobby takes him out of the equation.We get to see Shelly no longer be the victim of domestic abuse and we get to see Bobby be the good cop.I wonder if Bobby will be the one to find his fathers locked box with the secret history of Twin Peaks?

  2. Will Gordon,Albert,and Tammy catch up with Cooper? The awoken Cooper has left a message for Gordon Cole. The notes contents could contain a code that only Gordon would recognize that clarifies that the real Cooper has returned. Or it might simply be-Off to Twin Peaks, back in 25. Diane sent coordinates to the Bad Dale.This act was most likely to send a secret message to the FBI who are watching her phone. I would imagine that Diane's manufactured self had built in inhibitors that prevented her from directly helping the FBI catch the Bad Dale. But the power of Diane was still part of this copy.and that may have been too strong for even a Woodsman's work to overcome.So with a direct message from the real Dale most likely stating he is on his way to Twin Peaks,coordinates to direct them to a specific location in Twin Peaks. As well as several other hints and coincidences that lead back to Twin Peaks (The mention of a sheriffs station, Truman call about Laura's diary pages and the two Coops).It's likely that they are packing their bags and heading to town for a showdown. I hope we get to see one more scene with Albert at the TP sheriffs Station talking to Andy and Lucy..Ideally , it would be a fantastic Twin Peaks moment if Albert was brought down to the jail cells that hold Naido,James,Freddie, and Chad by Andy. While down there Chad starts to make disparaging comments about Andy and Lucy. Albert then walks up to Chads cage and lets go a verbal assault on Chad that leaves him whimpering in the corner like a spanked puppy.

  3. Imagine for a moment if the entire series ended with that final moment of Audrey in the white room saying "What?" .That would have opened up a whole new can of Garmonbozia
