Last night I was in denial. This morning I am at anger. I suspect later today will be bargaining, then depression, and hopefully one day will be acceptance.

I'm so agitated and confused. Did my best friend just die or did I just make a new best friend?

And before you start giving me that "you just don't understand art" stuff, please just don't.  Art is to be interpreted and processed by the individual. That is what I am doing.

I feel like a kid who was promised Disney World.  Went on a loooooong, silent car ride, down many dark roads, stopped in a motel along the way, had to listen to my parents having sex in the next room, woke up the next day in a different motel, got in a different car, set off again to Disney World. Stopped at an overly spacious diner, watched dad get into it with some locals, got back in the car and started driving again.  Stop at auntie Carrie's house.  Don't know who that random, bloated dead guy on the couch is.  (damn that had to smell bad) Back in the car again, much loooooong driving. But all of this is okay, because I'm going to Disney World!

And finally, after all that, we get to our destination.  But instead of Disney World, I'm looking at the world's biggest ball of twine.

WTF Dad?!

All those buttons Twin Peaks manages to push... there's no other show like it!

That is the truth!

But I would have settled for Disney Land, or Legoland.  Hell, I would have settled for Knottsberry Farm. What is this giant ball of twine I'm staring at?

Hmmm, well as somebody who really doesn't do 'arty' and quite frankly hasn't a clue what David Lynch is on about half the time - can I just suggest watching the last 2 episodes from a humorous point of view?  I really don't think this is the end of anything - if lots of things had been answered I would have been sad, 'cos that was probably the end of Twin Peaks for good.

Now, well, we've got some strange, beige parallel - where someone should really explain to a waitress who appears to have just killed her husband that she's actually a 'good' entity from a mystic egg.   But instead there's an awkward silence in the car as the FBI man hasn't actually had the presence of mind to phone ahead & check that he's going to the right person/place...

In fact we seem to have a pale copy of FBI man as he hasn't remembered a whole load of advice he's been given by  various wise folk & is even been out-performed in the shagging department by his dozy tulpa...

With a really goofy badge that could have been purchased out of a toy machine or stolen from a local keystone cop. Also with no presence of mind to be terribly concerned about the dude on the couch OR who Carrie was asking about when she opened the door and said something to the effect of "did you find him yet?"

@Caiomhin, I have always despised creamed corn and I feel like I just got force fed a pallet of it. About to do a Mr. C vomit.

Yep - Hybrid Cooper was a cardboard cut-out.  Though perhaps the real Dale's off with Janey-E & Sonny Jim?

Lets just hope this is not the end. Im sticking with the Coop saving Laura changed reality of who they were and what had happened.  But Laura hearing someone call her name made her remember. I will accept that more than it was all a dream in Coops head (in real life he's Richard) theory. That theory depresses me.

I hate you Lynch. I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU, YOU RAT BASTARD!

 

No I don't.  I love you.  Please don't go. Don't leave me.

 

On the cusp of bargaining.

Maybe the key to it all was that the flux capacitor was missing.

The key was Coop thinking it would be so easy to undo all the wrongs that befell Laura. He and the Fireman also seemed to have underestimated Judy. 

Sorry so serious after all the jokeyness. Haha.

I never expected it all to be fixed and that by saving Laura, the world would be set right. That would have actually been kind of corny (like creamed corny). I expected few to no answers. Clearly Cooper couldn't just take Laura our of her misery and nullify the bomb, the mother/experiment, Bob, pain and suffering in the world, or frog-bugs violating little girls.

But now we are offerred a whole new symphony of chaos and as I've said, nothing else that happened for the first 16-17 hours, depending on how you look at it, seemed to matter.  Was it mostly all filler?

No.  Existentialism 101.
