Twin Peaks Season 3, Part 15 Recap: 'It's A Change, Not An End.'

Welcome to Bleeding Cool's recap of Twin Peaks Season 3, Episode 15: 'There's some fear in letting go.', where some of our theories came closer to being confirmed, our players are getting closer to convening on Twin Peaks…and we said a final, loving goodbye to the mystical heart of the Twin Peaks universe.

You'll find a video rundown of my thoughts and takeaways from the episode below, and you can catch up on my live-blog thoughts by clicking here.

Here's a quick visual reminder of last week's episode from Showtime:

But before we get started…a couple of ground rules so that we're all on the same page:

● This isn't a formal review — more of a recap-ish type thing — but it will cover some themes and takeaways involving major and minor storyline developments from the episode. I'm sticking with thoughts, observations and recaps for this second half of the season, reserving overall judgment until the season is over.

● If you're just coming aboard this twisted little journey, then you've got some serious catching up to do. I would recommend my friends at Wikipedia and Showtime to get you up to speed, because attempting to recap the previous episodes would read like a serial killer's manifesto without proper context. I'm applying the J.J. Abrams/Damon Lindelof/Lost approach: at some point, you needto move forward and cater to the faithful who've been along for the ride during the entire run; and the newly converted will have to play a little catch-up…because it's worth it, dammit!

● This might be a little nit-picky, but I refer to the series as just Twin Peaks instead of Twin Peaks: The Return and this season as the third season. A point of personal privilege that I'm gifting myself, even if David Lynch decides to go with a fourth season (fingers crossed) made up of 72 15-minute episodes with dialogue in haiku form (and when it happens, remember you read it here first).

Okay…let's get to recappin'!
