So it's a key fob from the alternate dimension from the final scene (aka the irl)

That's really the strength of Lynch's work. It can mean different things to different people. And More fucked around with this message at 12:09 on Oct 25, 2017 |

I've been taking a clean break from the show ever since I watched the final two episodes a couple times and certain parts several times over that week. So it's been, well, maybe a month and a half since I even really thought much about Twin Peaks? Anyway, I think I'm ready to slowly rewatch this, and I gotta say that these episodes *really* only get better the more you watch them, because they are SO dense, and there is so much to see and to think about and ways that disconnected plot threads near the end seem to reconnect (to some degree) back to aspects of the beginning of the series. For instance, I had always perceived Episode 3 one way, with Cooper interacting with this strange woman making odd sounds with disturbing cuts/scars where her eyes should be. Now, watching it, I find myself with a number of other questions. Or the fact that when she flips the lever that switches the number from "03" the current episode, to "15" which is when Diane/Eyeless Woman shows up more or less (very end of episode 14) and also when Cooper's consciousness arrives more or less (end of Episode 15 when he sees the Sunset Boulevard scene). I really don't quite think that's a stretch, because we have no other context for the meaning of the numbers beyond being... some kind of nod to the illusory/dreamlike/falseness of the world we see them living in for most of Season 3. But hey, who the hell knows. If someone has a better theory about the numbers, I'd be thrilled to hear. It really does seem like... coordinates-by-episode, or something. And who is to say it couldn't be that? A grown up Phoebe Augustine (who played Ronette) speaking backwards was also in that room, and I can't make much sense of her appearance as such without kinda throwing the fourth wall out the window. Which was already suggested when we saw the glass box/tv metaphor connected to a window. I really kinda think that Glass box is sort of the key to understanding Cooper's ghostlike reflection in episode 17. Like he's really been trapped there the whole time in some way, and we're watching the real Cooper looking through the projected images at us. *shrug* kaworu fucked around with this message at 12:11 on Oct 25, 2017 |

I think there is a hole in this theory. The script was originally much shorter, and even in its final form, it was apparently just a single document. No episode breaks or anything. With that in mind, it really doesn't seem like season three could have elements that reference the number of episodes. That doesn't mean I disagree with the other stuff you said. The evidence for that particular aspect seems a bit flimsy, though.

With that in mind, it really doesn't seem like season three could have elements that reference the number of episodes. Oh, fair enough - I feel like it's flimsy too. But let's establish a few quick facts that we can empirically deduce from having watched season 3: The bell-like objects/structure that we see primarily in The Fireman's Dwelling (I hesitate to call it the White Lodge) always seem to be associated with travel - either through space, time, or both. We also see bell-like objects that have other apparatuses connected to them: there is the one used by Philip Jeffries which has a spout that he seemingly uses to communicate with from wherever/whenever he may be - I doubt he's a malformed Lynchian entity just living inside the device but who really knows. The place Cooper finds himself in at the start of Episode 3 also one of these bell-like devices, and we know it is hooked up to the AC/DC outlets in the room below, and functions as a portal. So we know that these "Machines" as Lynch simply calls them provides the power and the capacity to travel time. We know The Fireman has a lot of them, linked to an intricate system attached to his theater which allows him to seemingly project places from particular/worlds or dimensions and literally transplant people from his dwelling into the real place he projects on the screen. One of the machines even appears on the side of his projection when he does this. So we know that these "machines" faciliate spatial travel, and even time travel and dimensional travel. It would seem to make sense that the numbers would, then, be coordinates of a sort. But perhaps they refer not to episode numbers (which does seem a bit silly) but various worlds, or dimensions. We know there are more than one. We know time is not linear in many places, such as the ocean/sea of stars where that portal was located seemingly. Also, it did seem like "Judy" ("Mother") was trying batter the door down and did NOT want Cooper in there. Perhaps that "purple room" is far more significant than we give it credit for. kaworu fucked around with this message at 12:49 on Oct 25, 2017 |

Lynch is always a bit cheeky about the fact that it's a TV show, so I do kind of like the idea that the numbers are episode numbers. The numbers could have been added after the cutting up. There's clearly a lot of CGI work in that scene, so maybe the numbers themselves are CGI. For another example, in episode 2 when Mr. C is in the motel room, he's typing gibberish into a bizarre program on a modern laptop that has weird analogue visual glitches and when he turns it off, it sounds like he turns the knob of a 1970s TV. There's really no in-universe explanation for that -- it's a bit of surreal TV editing. If you told me Eric Wareheim (who is a big Lynch fan) guest-edited that scene it wouldn't surprise me. That's not to say I think the story itself is meant to take place in a TV show, or that the numbers on the sockets are even "really there" from an in-universe story perspective, but there are definitely different layers at play, and one of them is Lynch communicating directly with the viewer, outside of the main narrative.

If you ever become one of the most highly regarded directors of your time but find it impossible to get funding for new movies mere years after your last successes, leverage the power of nostalgia to con a television network into giving you a barge filled with cash to shoot a revival season but lowkey make it a big-rear end movie that burns off every little stray idea and every universal truth regarding humanity that you've discovered over the past seventy years.
