This is the water, and this is the well. Drink full, and descend. The horse is the white of the eyes, and dark within.

If I hadn't ever seen Twin Peaks before, and saw only this episode, I might have interpreted it as alternate interpretation of the story of the creation of the Demiurge. (wow that sentence was a disaster) Makes me think Lynch is possibly very interested in gnosticism these days. More so than he already may have been, that is. Gnosticism and spooky Jungian imagery go perfectly together, so that would be fantastic if that were actually the case.

I mean... Just read this extremely condensed run-down of the creation of the demiurge + Sophia from Wikipedia and compare it to this last episode:

Spoiler for ...:
"Sophia (Greek: Σοφία, lit. “wisdom”), the Demiurge’s mother a partial aspect of the divine Pleroma or “Fullness,” desired to create something apart from the divine totality, without the receipt of divine assent. In this act of separate creation, she gave birth to the monstrous Demiurge [[Bob!!]] and, being ashamed of her deed, wrapped him in a cloud and created a throne for him to be within it. The Demiurge, isolated, did not behold his mother, nor anyone else, concluded that only he himself existed, being ignorant of the superior levels of reality.

The Demiurge, having received a portion of power from his mother, sets about a work of creation in unconscious imitation of the superior Pleromatic realm: He frames the seven heavens, as well as all material and animal things, according to forms furnished by his mother; working however blindly, and ignorant even of the existence of the mother who is the source of all his energy. He is blind to all that is spiritual, but he is king over the other two provinces. The word dēmiourgos properly describes his relation to the material; he is the father of that which is animal like himself.[12]

Thus Sophia’s power becomes enclosed within the material forms of humanity, themselves entrapped within the material universe: the goal of Gnostic movements was typically the awakening of this spark, which permitted a return by the subject to the superior, non-material realities which were its primal source."

It totally makes sense!! So far, anyway.


Edit: And yes, I realize I am far from the first person who has ever thought this.

Naomi Watts flirting and having sex with Cooper after she sees him shirtless is so hot and hilarious.

The rape scene was pretty weird tbf.

^ Yes, that was pretty uncomfortable.

I'm loving all of the convoluted Audrey theories that are on r/TwinPeaks right now.
