I have no doubt that an awakened Cooper would defend Janey E and Sonny Jim against Hutch and Chantal whether or not he remembers them. If Janey E and Sonny Jim both survive, that creates a more complex plot line. I'm beginning to feel really bad for Agent Cooper. He's lost 25 years of his life, an evil doppelganger has assumed his identity and done awful things, and now when he wakes up he's got 2 huge battles unfolding in Vegas and Twin Peaks. Something tells me that Janey E and Sonny Jim can't possibly be his top priority even if they survive. I wouldn't want to wake up to that mess after 25 years.
I will be very disappointed if Janey-E and Sonny Jim are killed off. It's unnecessarily savage and too easy to dispose of them that way. If it happens, it happens, but to me it would be in the same category as Audrey dreaming the season in a shower, only meaner.
I'm picturing Mr C in a kind of plant-like state (kinda like Leo was) & Janey-E's quite happy to swap him for Dougie, prop him in a corner & spend his money. Sonny Jim will still be present in an imaginary sort of way...
Maybe when the lights are out, Hutch & Chantal will get caught up in Sunny Jim's gym set from the Mitchum Bros.
I bet Chantal would just love a little slice of that chocolate cake.
I'm most interested in seeing how Hutch and Chantal react to Mr C having an all powerful double. Somehow I don't imagine that Mr C fully explained the situation to them (or the possible danger to them.)
I've always had concern on Sonny Jim's fate as I believe this name is a direct reference to the play/movie Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. In the story, Sonny Jim is the exact name of the main couple's imagery son who they make stories about so people don't know they can't have kids. And the icing on the cake is when the husband "kills" their imaginary son to end the story.
could this mean that he is imagined (or the entire dougie family is imagined)?
Yeah... for a good while now I've been leaning towards that Janey-E and Sonny Jim are both manufactured (like Dougie was told by the one-armed man that he was). This might mean that Diane was lying to Cole and company about Janey-E being her half sister just to get them to Vegas. This show is driving me to the nuthouse!
When Dougie Cooper first showed up with the limo driver at the Jones house, they didn't walk up to the door. THEY DIDNT KNOCK OR RING THE DOORBELL!!
Instead, Janey-E suddenly comes to the door after an owl flies over Coop's head. So yes, I think all the Jones's are "manufactured." But maybe they're something real Cooper always wanted, hence the tear looking at his supposed son.
