Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

Dougie Jones is the best possible thing they could have done with Coop. If he was immediately just himself again after spending 25 years in the backwards talking waiting room of a literal hell dimension that would have been awful. When he does come to he's not going to be the same Coop that went in there. The most endearing thing about Coop, though, was his childlike wonder and sense of whimsy. He was a guy who was a sharp as gently caress detective who also freaked out like a little kid at douglas fir trees and good pie. Dougie Jones isn't just Cooper acting like a retard, he's Cooper without any of the weight of the horrible poo poo that's happened on him. He's 100% unfiltered childlike awe and whimsy. By showing that's still in him it's going to soften the blow somewhat when Cooper comes back for real and is a laser focused revenge machine out to loving murder the poo poo out of his doppleganger.

I hope he doesn't come back as a laser focused revenge machine. I hope he comes back as a deeply, deeply depressed man who shuts down evil Cooper, but only out of a sense of duty, and not with any emotion.

Good ep.

I thought it was pretty obvious that Audrey is in an institution and she's been having delusions. None of the poo poo with her husband was real, that's why the announcer introduced the song as "Audrey's Dance" and everybody stepped aside while she danced. She snaps out of it screaming in an all-white room.

This poo poo isn't rocket science.

Nah. They would have a mirror like that in an institution.

I don't see the connection to Audrey being in an institution. Also: did coop and Audrey make a murderous boy?

Richard is the son of Evil Coop and Audrey. And it's pretty clear that Evil Cooper raped Audrey. Possibly when she was in a coma after the explosion at the bank.

My guess is woman from Mean Girls was killed by dude crying in forest with Alicia Witt. Although this would be catastrophic for Madchen Amick's character, so maybe not. That would be pretty dark.

Most of the dangling plot threads don't bother me, but not knowing what was going on with Audrey did. Where was she and what was going on with her?

Still, outside of the super-long sex scene where they mostly showed Laura Dern's spine, I thought the final episode was good. I especially liked the tone change after the sex scene. It was pretty dark and depressing, which was good. Cooper was acting strangely, and it was confusing and disorienting, which was also good.

Diane is evil and hosed Cooper into the wrong timeline or Blacklodge hellscape.

Some interesting things about 18:

The woman who owned the house is the real life woman who owns that house.

One of the biggest changes in tone is that there's literally no music after that scene.

I feel like the transition there was into the "real" world, or at least world closer to reality than the one we had been shown before.

That's pretty much this guy's theory:
