The Twin Peaks narrative as we know it has been fractured and negated. In the Palmer house in the present day, Laura's mother Sarah (Grace Zabriskie), likely possessed by some evil entity, throws her daughter's photo to the ground and pummels it with a broken glass bottle. He's "gone fishin'" and that's all there is. But this time there is no body for Pete to discover. Long-gone characters like Josie Packard (Joan Chen) and Pete and Catherine Martell (Jack Nance and Piper Laurie) appear, effectively resurrected.

And then the pilot episode of the original series begins again, the footage reformatted from a square to rectangular aspect ratio. "We're going home," replies Cooper as he leads her through the woods, away from her date with death. Color comes back to the image once we return to Cooper and Laura. Her corpse vanishes, statically crackling out of existence. We cut to another familiar setting: the rocky shore by the Packard-Martell home where Laura's body is wrapped in plastic. (Lee's likely digitally de-aged face is key to the sequence's sense of rupture-Lynch wants us to look for the seams.) Laura recognizes Cooper from her dream and takes his hand. She never appears because Cooper intercepts the young Laura. It has the feel of a warning, though no one onscreen appears to hear or heed the words. This mystical Cooper speaks only once: "We live inside a dream," he intones, repeating the ancient phrase from the Upanishads previously uttered by Monica Bellucci to Cole a few episodes prior. "I hope I see all of you again," says Cooper just before he embarks on the next part of his mission, "every one of you." (Miss you most of all, Scarecrow!) The majority of this sequence plays out under a screen-top to screen-bottom superimposition of Cooper's slightly helpless-looking face, as if some part of him is watching from above and afar. Then a fond farewell to almost everyone gathered in Truman's office like Dorothy Gale's fantastical surrogate family at the climax of The Wizard of Oz (1939), a Lynch touchstone. First though, some hellos and goodbyes: A loving embrace-and-smooch with Dern's now red-bewigged Diane, who emerges from Naido's body as if from a chrysalis, as well as a hearty howdy to FBI Deputy Director Gordon Cole (Lynch) "who is here right on time!" notes a cheery Cooper after his hearing-impaired boss walks in with Agents Albert Rosenfield (Miguel Ferrer) and Tammy Preston (Chrysta Bell) in tow.
