Gotta hand it to Lynch, he intentionally leaked the end of the whole thing and still made it completely unexpected and confounding.
It wasn't intentional but yeah, you can't spoil something that is literally indecipherable to begin with.

For one second, I almost thought the other waitress was going to be Annie...

then I remember the Mordeen 'Carrie' puzzle that got him in a lot of hot water and I figured that had to be the other waitress.

Well, we at least answered the question regarding Bob still being with Mr. C! And congrats to whoever came up with the theory that Naido was Diane.

So in the end, Mrs. Chalfont/Tremond had the last laugg - and Cooper was truly thrust into the heart of the pure darkness of evil that is JUDY...

And perhaps we ended with Cooper in the past - before the Palmers bought the house... and Mrs. Chalfont was setting everything in motion - which is what Cooper began to realize asking "Wait - what year is this?"

It was BEFORE.
"Is it future or is it past?"

I'm satisfied with that.

It was kind of what I expected. An ending that would outrage and will take all of us together trying to put different interpretations to come to a handful of them that work for us (there will be more than one for sure).
I was expecting a cliffhanger, no real resolution... but this was far beyond that. It felt like the entire story just stopped mid sentence.
The finale made it seem like the previous 16 hours served no purpose.

the sex scene was so surreal - with "diane" covering up "coop's" face almost like telling him none of this is really happening - it's not what he's really seeing. totally got club silencio vibes from it.
Also the Coop face in the background at the Sheriff's station said "We live inside a dream." And the arm repeated Audrey's line about the girl that lived down the lane. I don't know what that means, but it contributes to the idea that maybe nothing is real - imagined, dreamed, alternate reality - I have no idea. I'm going to be rewatching this one for awhile.

And who was Judy :?: .

1000% agree. I'm happy not knowing. Once we unpacked all the pieces, it started to make less and less sense coming together as a big picture. From the beginning, this show has been a murder mystery. I'm oddly satisfied not getting the answers.

That appears to be the case. Also Season 1, Season 2, and FWWM. And the Missing Pieces. And TSHOTP.

I want to know who the man was that Tremond was talking to. I thought we were going to see Leland peering out a window.

I swear I heard Sarah say "Laura?" right before Laura/Carrie screamed.

This is a story. If watching literally any of those could tell you anything, it'd be don't expect anything linear or conventional. Really weird some people are actually upset by this.

The more I think about it the more I love it. I think this is everything I could ever hope for.

If there's anymore, COOL. If there isn't, still cool and the chills never stop.
