In this context, the trial that Dale underwent as he confronted his Shadow Self in the Red Room and the resulting failure to show perfect courage meant the destruction of his Soul. He is now a Denizen of the Lodge (or a Dweller on the Threshold, as it were) just as Laura is.
A shockingly Lovecraftian resolution...

While there is probably no relation, this tweet from John Thorne featuring a picture from an early draft of FWwM is an interesting possibility

Sabrina is incorrect. It is indeed included in that early draft.

Ahhhh, I thought Bob Engles had confirmed the validity of that draft. Though, with her phrasing, that could still be correct if Bob wrote that part and not David.

If that's the case, then she's probably just psychologically blocked this terrible idea from her memory for her own well being.

That's what I'm going to try to do. :lol:

Right. I mean, I don't know why she or anyone else would get in a twist over it. It was an early draft and they were throwing things at the wall to see if it stuck. By the July 3rd draft it was dropped.

I'd love to see any pre-script notes. Some craziness no doubt.

I'd kill to see that full draft. And I can keep a secret.

Laura said :

“ You can leave as soon as your Doppleganger comes
back in. You must go to Odessa, Texas and find me.
Take me to my mothers house.”

Something I’d either overlooked or forgotten is that in the Laura/Annie scene in FWWM, you can faintly hear a very distorted rendition of Sarah’s “Laura” cry from the Pilot (specifically spelled out in the script but very subtle in the final mix), also heard in the final moments of P18 of course, further tying that FWWM scene to whatever L/F were going for in the closing moments of TR.

Wow. Nice catch! So, what does that mean? Is it something about time? About dreams? The timelessness of dreams? Is it about Laura waking up to that moment? Or just a signifier that that is the key moment in her life/death?
