Subject: Coop's Security Camera Trick in FWWM (Spoilers) From: v075q5fr@ubvmsb.cc.buffalo.edu (Scott J Gorcey) Date: 1992-09-06, 15:39 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks Doppleganger: Now, wait a minute: Does this remind anyone of that business in The Waiting Room during the last episode, or is it just me? Let's compare: Final Episode: Coop's going from room to (nearly identical) room in The Waiting Room, down that corridor... and this becomes so confusing (not just to him) that he actually meets himself coming and going: the doppleganger. FWWM: Coop tells Gordon he's had a dream [surprise!]. Next: we see Coop walking from the corridor to the security monitor room, trying to catch an image of himself in two places at once (why, we don't know, but it of course has something to do with this dream he's had). Then: HE DOES IT. Coop looks at Coop in the monitor. Now, besides this being typical-Lynch - like Senor Droolcup always being the harbinger of The Giant -- something strange (Coop's trick) followed but something truly bizzare (in this case, Agent Jeffreys) -- I think it's a keen foreshadowing of the final episode - and a connection to Annie showing up in Laura's bed talking about "the good Dale is in the Lodge..." Considering how everyone and everything in Twin Peaks has its double - whether it's a physical double (like Laura/Maddy, Leland/ BOB) or a personality double (Donna first and second season)... this means... what? Comments? Has Coop been expecting what happened in the final episode... all along? And because of this, does he think he knows how to get out of it? Where does the Blue Rose (Blue book) fit in?
