I was just watching the finale of season 2. And I'm not sure who sent that message to Mayor Briggs throug Sarah.
Was this -at any moment- clear for someone? What did I miss?
There was a previous discussion on this subject, but I would not know how to find it now. The ideas thrown around were:
- The thing inside Sarah
- Windom Earle
- Bob
- Mike
- The Arm
- Laura
- The Giant
- Evil Cooper

I kind of buy the Bob or the Arm ideas. Both seem to have the knowledge and means to deliver this message (in a taunting way) and reason to want to get Briggs.
To me it makes sense that The Giant/Fireman was the one who said “I’m in the Black Lodge with Dale Cooper” then he said “I’m waiting for you.”
I've always thought it was Luara, bet the scene where Sara takes her face off threw a wrench in that.
Buutx we'll know when we see what that is in Sara tomorrow
"I'm in the Black Lodge with Dale Cooper" sounds highly distorted and the voice is unrecognisable to me, but the sentence immediately following it - "I'm waiting for you" - clearly sounds like the voice of The Arm to me.
So, was that message a trap to bring the Mayor to the Black Lodge? I really hadn't pay attention to the last sentence, it does sounds like the Arm talking.
The Black Lodge is a subset of Twin Peaks, meaning it's a particular place inside the "Dream". It's where The Dreamer keeps all the Sorrow and Pain.
Sorrow and Pain are the fuel for the story we get to see.
The whole thing is inside The Dreamer's head. Mr. C.'s rise in the end of Season 2 is the outcome of one of many frustrated attempts to rebuild a Reality where Laura is still alive.
It's safe to say Mr.C. is the one who speaks thru Sarah.
My theory is that Windom Earle is using the powers of the Black Lodge to possess Sarah, and taunt Major Briggs through her.
My opinion on the voice who says ”I’m waiting for you” is also that it sounds like Windom Earle’s.

There's a "cheat" that answers this question. I've only read about it on the internet, so take this with a grain of salt. Apparently if you watch the episode with closed captioning on, the captions say (voice of Windom Earle) when the line in question is spoken.
My personal preference is that it's Annie. She seems to handle the whole Black Lodge experience much better than Dale, calming herself with Psalm 141 instead of freaking out. It would be so cool if this calm gave her sufficient power to reach out beyond the Black Lodge and call for help.
"Let the wicked fall into their own nets, Whilst I withal escape."
That’ Annie theory is a good one that I like.
Anyway about the captions, who writes those? Does that person have the correct info. I think not 🙂
I've always assumed it was Earle. He captured Annie with the intent of luring Cooper into the Lodge.
Earle was brilliant, so learning and manipulating the powers of the Lodge would to some extent come quickly. Note how he manipulated Annie's appearance as Cooper stood before him.
