Subject: Miss Twin Peaks From: UN040377@WVNVAXA.WVNET.EDU Date: 1991-04-22, 01:03 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks After a lot of comtemplation regarding who will become Miss Twin Peaks, I have come to a prediction. The winner will be... Laura Palmer! I have several reasons for this choice: 1) A couple of months ago, when the COOP parties were going on, someone posted that they had talked to Michael Horse, who plays Hawk. This person posted that the only detail Mr. Horse would reveal about upcoming episodes was: (paraphrased) "You won't believe who wins the Miss Twin Peaks pageant!" Now, with all the other recent, intensely important happenings going on in the Twin Peaks world, I don't think he would have chosen this particular plot to comment on unless it was going to be a very surprising, important event. Of the girls currently in the contest: Donna, Shelley, Lana, Lucy, Audrey (maybe), and Nadine, none of them really fit Mr. Horse's above comment. Nadine, possibly, since she'd certainly be an unexpected winner, but Laura would be an even more amazing, bizarrely Lynchian twist. 2) There must be SOME reason why Laura's picture (as a homecoming *QUEEN*) is still shown at the end of each episode. 3) Just a strong hunch. I don't know exactly how this would come about. Maybe the girls in the contest will start thinking about Laura and decide that she should have the title as a way of honoring and commemorating this formerly beloved citizen of the Twin Peaks community. Or maybe she will physically reappear, with help from the White Lodge. Whichever way this comes about, I think Laura being chosen as the winner will foil Earle's plans, thereby finally redeeming Laura's soul (something she was always trying, but never able, to do while she was alive.) I have always had a feeling (and a hope) that the some of the more important deceased citizens of Twin Peaks would make an encore appearance in the final show. Then again, hopefully this won't be the final show. Comments?
