That's clearly referencing BOBs death bag.

You also left out this part:

which is clearly that weird stuff they scraped off the gun.

My coffee also left a pattern on my napkin, and I'm fairly sure it points towards Dougie becoming a roaming motorcyclist.

I'm sorry but that is obviously two birds singing backup to a pretentious Raccoon.

Credits have Hugh Dillon playing a Tom Paige and Tom is what she called him. Another character that seems to point in the direction that this series is at least partly about age and illness, as that seems to permeate parts of this show.

Anyone else find it odd that Ray was ...not scared for his life? He obviously knows Darya didn't carry out the hit, and now Danzig is breaking him out of prison in the middle of the night, and he seems totally fine with it.

It could be that Ray's an idiot and doesn't realize that he's dead as soon as Mr. C gets the info that he wants from Ray. Ray's info is, after all, the reason Mr. C gets himself sent to prison (putting an assault rifle in his trunk and crossing the state line intentionally). Darya was way too confident that they wouldn't be found out by Mr. C, and we all know what happened to her.

Oh god, I just had a thought: What if when DoppelCoop visited Audrey in the hospital after the bank explosion, he raped her while she was in a coma and Richard Horne is her and DoppelCoop's kid?

It wouldn't surprise me that he did this before skipping town on a comatose Audrey in the ICU. Also, suggests that Audrey and Richard are not on speaking terms and his drug habit.

But why would DoppelCoop stop there? Maybe he also went to Diane's on 'that' night to rape her too so he could rub it in her face when he expected her in prison. Explains the meltdown and drinking problem.

So I think i've pieced a few things together. It's starting to become obvious that the Season 3 story arc is (maybe loosely) linked to Phish's classic song "Cavern" which was officially released on A Picture of Nectar in 1992 but had been played out extensively before then. Whether it influenced the original series or not is up in the air, but I think it was clearly inspiration for season 3.
The line that keyed me in, obviously, is the focal point at the climax, "Whatever you do/take care of your shoes". Good Cooper lost his shoes traveling back to this world and they seem to be the one thing that he's missing to make him whole again. But I'll start at the beginning and go line by line.

Your time is near, the mission's clear
It's later than we think
This is pretty obvious, it's the Black Lodge folks talking to Coop and acknowledging that he's been held up by Bad Coop's schemes.

Before you slip into the night
You'll want something to drink
Coffee, duh.

Steal away before the dawn, and
Bring us back good news
Re-statement of purpose.

But if you've tread in primal soup
Please wipe it from your shoes
The black goop from Glastonberry Grove, maybe?

Just then a porthole pirate
Scourged the evening with his cry
And sanctuary bugs deprived
The monkey of its thigh
A dust arose and clogged my nose
Before I could blink twice
Despite the stuff that bubbled up
I gave some last advice:
I think this is all stuff we haven't seen yet, but it could also be the confrontations with the hitmen?

The flesh from Satan's dogs
Will make the rudiments of gruel
I think this is talking about garmonbozia.

Deduct the carrots from your pay
You worthless swampy fool
This probably has to do with Dougie's boss at the insurance agency. Seems like something he'd say.

Exploding then through fields and fen
And swimming in the mire
The septic maiden's gargoyle tooth
Demented me with fire
Think that last line is important.

I drifted where the current chose
Afloat upon my back
And if perchance a newt slimed by
I'd stuff it in my sack
Sounds a lot like Good Coop's travels through space and stuff. Not sure what the newt refers to.

The next few verses are all stuff that hasn't happened in S3 yet, but I'm sure it will make sense soon. I'll skip to the chorus at the end.

Give the director a serpent deflector
I think Dougie Coop is going to give Gordon Cole something important that will save him from a serpent, or maybe just a slippery villain. Remember Bad Coop's snakeskin shirt???

a mudrat detector, a ribbon reflector
Not sure.

a cushion convector, a picture of nectar
Again, not sure, but there have been lots of pictures so far in the season.

a virile dissector,a hormone collector
Not sure.

Whatever you do take care of your shoes
When Coop gets his shoes back I think he'll be back to normal.

This might seem far fetched but it's really not. The ties between Lynch and Phish are pretty well documented over the years, and they definitely have a mutual respect thing going on. (Phish named their 1997 summer festival after a line from FWWM, Mike Gordon directly attributes his aggressive hairstyle to David Lynch, on Lynch's side he's said that he went to over 300 shows in the 90's before the hiatus and he's been seen in LA driving a Suburu Outback with a GUYUTE license plate).

I'll keep posting as things fall into place but I'm sure this is the key to understanding the season.

The more David Lynch has these portraits of giant ears of corn and these strange noises coming in between standing lamps and totem poles, the more I start to think that the plot of this show is the old Stephen King trope of "this land is haunted because we built over an ancient Indian burial ground," except the ancient Indian burial ground is the entire United States of America.

Really feels like Janey-e has some lodge superpowers as well. She can force anyone to bend to her will. Those extortionists should have laughed at her. The answers she gave the cops were flimsy and absurd. She even got Dougie's boss to say "k, we'll do it later".

Or maybe she's just naturally some kind of force of nature. Either way, Naomi Watts is killing it.

BECAUSE DAVID LYNCH WAS INSPIRED BY WU-TANG CLAN'S ENTER THE 36 CHAMBERS, THE SECRETS ARE IN "DAH MYSTERIES OF CHESSBOXIN'", OBVIOUSLY

WITH NO TRIVIA (because he hates trivial pursuit and is enigmatic)
RAW LIKE COCAINE (drugs!)
STRAIGHT FROM BOLIVIA (near argentina!)

Just lol if you think a legit human Naomi Watts would have a name like Janey-e and, despite being intelligent and strong willed and basically capable of anything would marry a schlub like Dougie Jones who apparently even in his normal routine is so weird that his current behavior doesn't set off any alarms.

Like, what was their courtship like? Why did she, of her own free will, fall for this scrub? That's not what a strong, well written female role would do, it's what a niceguy's idealized woman does.

Man, I feel like BOB is one of the most revolting villains ever portrayed in media. If I think about all he's done to Coop, stealing his identity, assaulting his friends, imprisoning him for 25 years, it starts to make my stomach turn.

I know the concept of a "happy ending" is so far away from Lynch's priorities that you can see the curvature of the earth, but I really hope BOB gets what's coming to him.
