Meanwhile the Horne brothers have delusions involving Civil War reenactments and binoculars that electrocute your estranged family members.

My hope and expectation:

In a final showdown at the Twin Peaks Sheriff's Department, Bad Cooper (Booper) and Good Cooper (Gooper) are gonna have a wobble-vision fight over Audrey and the Chittering Woman. Furthermore, someone's face is probably gonna get chomped in by a black lodger again.

Electricity has been the major malevolent "element" of this season (as opposed to the fire and water from earlier seasons), so I hope to see more of that kind of symbolism at play.

*spoilers/discussion below?*

Episode 17 was the proper "ending" to the series. Cooper even says (to Diane, with Gordon Cole present), "See you at the curtain call," meaning "the show's nearly over, and the next time we meet it'll be to take our bows before the audience." It's a very meta, self-aware line to use.

Episode 18 was the epilogue, and it explains how the third Laura Palmer ("old Laura") also gets trapped in the Black Lodge, despite the best efforts of Agent Cooper to keep her safe. In this episode, Cooper meets with Diane as he's exiting the the Black Lodge through its red curtains. THIS is the curtain call he was referring to in the prior episode, however Gordon Cole is conspicuously absent from this meeting. By this point, the show was already over and done with. Goodness had prevailed, Dougie would be returned to his family, everything had fallen roughly into place according to a divine Lynchian will of sorts - everything except for the matter of Cooper's attempted intervention of Laura's death from the episode prior. From a room within the Black Lodge, the Arm asks Cooper, "Is it the story of the little girl who lived down the lane? Is it?" Everything beyond that point is Cooper being an unwitting agent, forced into tying up all the loose ends with the Laura-that-got-away so that Laura Palmer's original fate would be sealed.

Wild Bonus *extra credit* Theory: Episode 18 explains how :spooky:A version of Laura was brought back through time to become her own mother.:spooky:
