The noise in the Great Northern that James, Beverly and Ben keep hearing can also be heard in the international pilot when they show Bob in the basement of the hospital, and I think I also heard it during the real Dougie's "death" scene.

I was just rewatching part 3. Might the Mauve Room have any connection to Laura's bedroom? Here's what I observed:

- Coop enters the Mauve Room through a window, which is a non-sinister parallel to how Bob enters Laura's room in FWWM
- There are portals to other realms hanging on the wall in both rooms (the painting and the big outlet)
- The malevolent "mother" is knocking on the door (?), which could parallel Sarah's evilness this season
- Sarah mentioned "Your room seems different" at the grocery store

It also connects to Laura with the appearance of Ronette and the image of falling through space (as in the conversation with Donna in FWWM).

But, who knows! Naido and Laura seem to be connected somehow at any rate.

I think the Jumping Man has something to do with the Convenience Store's ability to leap into different dimensions of time and space. Notice when the Woodsman turns the lever, that's when we get our glimpse of the Jumping Man.

If I'm right about this, then we'd also have some answer to why we see Sarah/other characters superimposed on his face -- he feeds off their pain and suffering and uses that garmonbozia to effect his time "jumps."

I am guessing the last two episodes will be the real Agent Cooper putting everything together - all the fractured scenes, storylines and characters will be explained via his character in some sort of dream, lodge place, etc.

It will be the real "Return".

There are no alternate worlds, timelines, etc. It will simply be a matter of consciousness and whose perspective we have been viewing it from.

It will all make sense...
i think this is right.

I was just thinking about how the show is boiling down to this mystery of WTF is going on with a bunch of women.

Sarah Palmer: WTF?
Diane: Where is the real Diane?
Laura Palmer: ???
Mother Creature: ???
Linda: ("Richard and Linda. Two birds with one stone.")
Naido: Who is she and why is she important?
Judy: Who is she and why is she important?
Audrey: WTF?

A bunch of questions surround all these women.

Also: How's Annie?

Hawk mentioned black fire. Annie's last name is Blackburn. Hmmm.

More precisely, it plays just as BOB becomes aware that MIKE is about to enter. Also it plays a scene earlier while MIKE is talking about his origins, in the morgue.

I think the fact that it plays in the hospital in part 16, just before Bushnell goes outside Coop's room to investigate, and just before MIKE/TOAM appears in the chair to give Coop the Owl-Cave Ring, more or less confirms it as being associated with MIKE. It also may have some significance (I hate using that word, people will now pounce on me) that it is a ringing sound, and MIKE and the LMfAP have always played the roles of bearers of the ring (remember the unfunny joke by Sheriff Cable in FWWM: 'we got a phone here got a little ring'?).

:lol: :( :shock:

Its appearance in the Great Northern, both above and below ground, suggests some kind of pathway to the waiting room and to MIKE may be present there, most likely behind the door in the furnace room which we never saw investigated yet.
As a matter of fact, 'Chalfont' was the name of the people that rented this space before. Two Chalfonts. Weird, huh?

A lot of people saying that's the end of Diane. Was I fooled by the meaning of this image then? Did they only release it for promotional purposes but nothing to do with the actual story?

I believe that image is "only" from a promotional photo shoot, nt the actual series itself.

What no-one knows is that the Entertainment Weekly images weren't taken at a photo shoot - they're screen grabs from the final episode. TPTR is actually a tribute to Friends.

Just had an idea while eating : what if the "american girl" from the purple world was Linda ?! Linda would be Bad Coop & Diane children (from the rape), that Mr. C has trapped with her mother (aka Naido) in the "non-existent" :!:

Why would Diane & Coop's kid look like Ronette? Also, she's visually too old for the timeline to work.

Did Good Coop manufacture the Diane tulpa? He knows how to make them and Diane was referring to him as "Coop" and said "hope this works" when she sent coordinates (a trap?) to Bad Coop. Or perhaps Good Coop tried to override Bad Coop's control.

Having said that, if the "real" Diane can peek out from the Bad Coop-controlled tulpa, might the "real" coop's memories have ever surfaced from Dougie?

An idea...

'Diane' and Janey-E were both manufactured from the same source. Half-sisters. Two birds with one stone. How come Dougie ended up married to Janey? Small world, but not that small...
