Does anyone have an explanation for why both Ray and Cooper's doppelganger are taken straight to the federal penitentiary in Yankton after their arrests? Normally they would be held in a local jail and need a trial, conviction and sentencing before being moved to a prison. I want to think they do things differently in South Dakota or that the show offered an explanation that I missed. I don't want to think this was an error David Lynch made through failing to research when writing the script.
What's on your mind?

Hello everyone, I wanna know why Sheryl Lee is credited at the end of each episode of the third season when she only appeared in the second episode to date?
Ever wondered what your favorite Twin Peaks stars did between seasons 2 and 3? Wonder no longer! FANDOM has the details!
Which ones are most surprising? Let us know below!
Twin Peaks influenced a lot of television. FANDOM takes a look at some of the most significant shows that owe their existence to Twin Peaks.
Do you agree? Let us know below!
I've been pondering about this issue for nearly 2 decades, ever since I 1st fell in love with Twin Peaks. We witness Windom Earle actively seeking to become an inhabiting spirit in the BLACK LODGE. Can we therefore assume that BOB stated out this way too? Was he just a man at some point?
Just some thoughts I've compiled with regards to when exactly Secret History takes place in relation to The Return. Here I've placed arguments in favor of it taking place before and arguments in favor of it taking place after.
Before (The Secret History is 2016, The Return is sometime after that):
- TP mentions in Secret History that Agent Cooper skipped town in the early 90s, and has not been seen since. If The Return takes place in 2014, then we know for a fact she has seen him, which would mean the Return would have to be after Secret History. This early 90s date also puts the doppelgänger’s departure during that time period, which the show claims happened right after he returned from Glastonbury Grove, and when Major Briggs was killed.
- Of course, Mark Frost has had a couple of issues with dates and stuff in TSHTP, so we’ll have to wait on that front.
- TP mentions in her notes (on pages 312-313) that Jeffries has been missing since 1989, and that she has some basic information on him. In Part 4, she asks who Phillip Jeffries is, and when Albert simply says he’s a former agent of the FBI, she expectantly listens, as though she’s been waiting to find out more about him after seeing his name in the dossier.
After (The Return is 2014, The Secret History is still 2016):
- TP mentions in her notes (on pages 312-313) that Jeffries has been missing since 1989, and that she has some basic information on him. In Part 4, she asks who Phillip Jeffries is, and when Albert simply says he’s a former agent of the FBI, she expectantly listens, as though she’s never heard the name before.
- It goes both ways.
- Agent Preston mentions she has been taken off active duty once she finishes the first dossier. She’s definitely working at the start of The Return: in fact, she’s already investigating a different murder.
- Cole’s opening letter mentions the dossier was recovered from a murder scene under active investigation and may be related to Cooper’s investigation. We’ve been getting vague hints that the murder of Ruth Davenport had something to do with the Black Lodge and may have been committed by the doppelgänger. There’s also a fan theory (though I myself am doubtful about it) that the unknown body belongs to Major Briggs. Was the dossier recovered in Ruth Davenport’s apartment? Will the investigation continue after the season is over?
- Or, and I shudder to consider this…could the murder happen later this season?
In the middle (Secret History is somehow concurrent with The Return)?
- Cole’s opening letter mentions the dossier was recovered from a murder scene under active investigation and may be related to Cooper’s investigation. We’ve been getting vague hints that the murder of Ruth Davenport had something to do with the Black Lodge and may have been committed by the doppelgänger. There’s also a fan theory (though I myself am doubtful about it) that the unknown body belongs to Major Briggs. Was the dossier recovered in Ruth Davenport’s apartment? It’s somewhat unlikely the season will end without her murder being solved (but hey, they never wanted to solve Laura Palmer’s murder).
- It took TP almost a month to read and annotate the dossier. When would she have time to do that this season?
So just a couple of ideas. Thoughts? Further evidence? More objections? Let me know.
The loss of beloved character actors
Our beloved Log Lady Catherine E. Coulson passed away from cancer in September 2015.
We are all blessed that she shared her incredible gravity to Twin Peaks Season 3. Her mystery endures & her log watches...
A shame that Phillip Jeffries didn't also make it to add to his apocryphal time travelling questions. The Labyrinth captured his wiles at last.
But I hope I speak for everyone, in reverence of the masterful performance of the unconquerable Albert, of the acidic tongue & huge heart, farewell Miguel Ferrer.
Something I never thought about was just how much Twin Peaks influenced other media. We know that Twin Peaks was the catalyst for several shows that followed, but what about games? This great article looks into that.
What other mediums were influenced by Twin Peaks? Books? Comics? Music?
What is going on with Dale? Is Bob coming back? And what the hell is the glass box all about????
So I've made it through most of season 1 and am kind of wary about continuing since I've heard so many negative things about season 2.
Full disclosure; I know who killed Laura Palmer (it was spoiled for me a while ago) and I've seen Fire Walk With Me (which I thought was kinda meh).
I really want to watch the new season though! Do I need to finish season 2? Or is it skippable? Thanks!
This clip with John Corbett in 'Northern Exposure' is amazing. I miss that show too!

The new season will be here soon! We just hope they'll solve some of these mysteries from previous episodes!!
