Most of the evidence seems to suggest that the Roadhouse scenes up until now were real, as opposed to just a construct in Audrey's mind, because we've seen people from the real world turn up there and talk about characters and events that we also know to be real:
1) Shelly and her friends talking about Becky and James, and Shelly noticing Red
2) Richard assaulting that woman from the other booth and paying off Chad
3) James and Freddie getting in a fight (and then getting thrown in jail)
There are really only two hints, prior to tonight, that any of the Roadhouse scenes should be taken at less than face value. First, there's one guy in the crowd who caught my attention for whatever reason and who not only seems to be there in every scene, but wearing the same plaid shirt every night - it's a relatively young guy wearing glasses with a beard and mustache (which makes me wonder if some of the others in the crowd are also showing up in the same clothes in every scene). I can buy that they filmed all these scenes at once with the same extras (and that the same residents of the town go to the Roadhouse every night), but in the same clothes? Surely they could have found time to have the extras change clothes. Then there's the girl crawling on the floor and screaming without anybody seeming to notice, but I took that as more just another indication at the prevalence of assholery in present-day Twin Peaks.
However, the MC who announced "Audrey's dance" (which I assume we can all agree was *not* real) seems to be the same guy we've seen going at least as far back as NIN's appearance. One wouldn't expect Audrey to be imagining the presence of a real-life MC that she's never encountered (unless we're to assume that he's a long-time fixture who just didn't appear on-screen in the original series) or, for that matter, the presence of plaid-shirt bearded guy, who was there yet again tonight. But one also wouldn't expect her to imagine things that were happening IRL (Shelly and Red, Richard and Chad, James and Freddie) that she'd have no knowledge of if she's been comatose or in the Lodges ever since the bank explosion.
Maybe this is just one of those Lynchian puzzles that won't ever line up with a definitive interpretation. Otherwise, it seems like Audrey would have to possess some psychic ability or be "receiving" information through the Lodges for either scenario - that every Roadhouse scene was in her mind or that only tonight's was - to hold up. I guess a third possibility is that she's been conscious and sane for most of her life following the bank explosion, but only recently became delusional and/or entered the Lodges.
Not sure we're not done with Jeffries; we need to see who Mr. C talked to on the phone if it wasn't really Jeffries. And after tonight's episode, I can't imagine we're done with Diane or Audrey. Maybe even Richard. (The Dutchman's and Lodge connect Jeffries, Diane, Audrey and Richard now anyway, and we're certainly not done with those elements.)

I haven't found the episode yet, but according to twin peaks wiki Dale Cooper was born April 19, 1954. He would have been 35 in 1989.

In the Audrey thread you mentioned her maybe being placed in The Dutchman's by Evil Coop. I just remembered the mention by the women at the Roadhouseo of a nuthouse and wonder if that was a hint of her being somewhere strange. What you say would be another parallel to what he did to Diane.ThumbsUp wrote:I'm assuming Evil Coop did indeed assault Audrey, but I also have wondered if he manipulated and seduced her, and took advantage of her schoolgirl crush in a really sinister way to produce evil progeny, or to use Audrey to some ulterior end.nonemoreblack wrote:Yes, after Leland I suppose it's in keeping with the dark undertones of the series. I think maybe Audrey was in a coma, but she might be involved with the Lodge somehow too depending on what exactly Evil Coop did to her.Troubbble wrote:
Agreed - I hated the idea of it when it first came up.
However, it is all too appropriate that the Doppelganger would violate these two women, when the real Cooper apparently made a specific point to maintain proper boundaries with them both. (See again: Diane's "one kiss" with Cooper, years before encountering his twin.)
Why is this taking place in 2016? That's not 25 years after 1989.kornishpyxee wrote:I haven't found the episode yet, but according to twin peaks wiki Dale Cooper was born April 19, 1954.

YES! While watching, I thought, "I've heard that line before said almost the exact same way," but I couldn't place it until I read your post.ThumbsUp wrote:Didn't Sonny Jim mimic Donna? "You're my dad! You're my dad!"

Diane got Mr. C's text at 16:31. That's 4:31. Probably because it didn't send right away (this happens to me a lot on my phone haha). 4:30 PM in Buckhorn should be light, as it is shown to be, but then it definitely shouldn't be dark in Twin Peaks (we can assume they're in the vicinity because of Jerry). Clearly that message sent with a significant delay. Or it was sent into the future... regardless the timelines aren't matching AT ALL.
430. Richard and Linda (E). 2 birds with one stone. They're both no longer on Earth. There was one stone; the golden pebble that was Diane. HMMMMM
I think ":-)" is Bob's way of saying "kill" -- I interpreted the text as "Kill them all"

Yeah, I'm a little baffled by what this concept of "future Cooper" even means. The Diane Cooper was talking to back in the day via tape recorder was absolutely real. I don't think Evil Coooper was manipulating events on Earth until his emergence in Episode 29. I think tulpa Diane had real Diane's memories, and actually thought she was real Diane up until the point she received that last text. She talked about being taken to the Convenience Store by Evil Cooper. I think Cooper raped the real Diane, took her to the Convenience Store and created her tulpa there. What happened to the real Diane after that, we don't know yet. There seems to be some indication that Naido is Diane, since Diane started talking about being in a sheriff's station.djsunyc wrote:i'm not sure about future cooper making diane. it seems to me diane was real, existed during the first 2 seasons of twin peaks and was then raped by dopplecoop 4 years after the season 2 finale. then he created a dopplediane and had her exist so he can use her 20 years later.Hester Prynne wrote:Damn! I didn't think of that. Wow! I keep thinking of Coop talking to her in the tape recorder - that whole time he was talking to someone who possibly wasn't real and created by his doppelgänger in the future. What does that mean about Janey-E who is supposed to be her half sister?SpookyDollhouse wrote:
Btw the whole revelation with Diane is something I totally didn't call. She was made by Cooper, presumably Cooper from the future. He set most of this up it seems. Time really has folded in on itself!
What's with the "seed" that Coop knows about? Are we all just manufactured for a purpose?
I thought maybe Bad Coop killed the real Diane and had a facsimile created of her.
Oh, and the coordinates lead to the Sheriff's station?! Looks like those other 2 sets of coordinates were bogus.
Yes, I agree. It was like a Manchurian Candidate trigger phrase. When Diane saw Evil Coop in jail, she still thought she was real Diane.djsunyc wrote:it seems to me that the text ALL was something to wake her up.richsmith wrote:If this Diane was a tulpa, then what are we retrospectively meant to make of her scene with EvilCoop in the jailhouse? She seemed so genuinely disturbed and vulnerable there. Was it another one of the moments like in her last scene in Gordon's hotel room where the "real" Diane was struggling to get out?
I wouldn't be surprised if some of the those scenes were real and some weren't, just to add to the dreamy feel of the Roadhouse.Jasper wrote:As I understand it, all of the Roadhouse performances were filmed on the same day with the same audience extras.FlyingSquirrel wrote:Some additional thoughts on the Audrey / Roadhouse issue: logically, the idea of Audrey having been in a coma and/or the Lodge for 25 years and simply imagining this most recent scene doesn't seem like it ought to hold up.
