After more than 20 years with no sign of a Twin Peaks revival, fans are less than two weeks away from a damn good consolation prize: a new Blu-Ray set containing nearly two hours of never-before-seen content cut from the TV show and its film adaptation, Fire Walk With Me. Though the set won't be out until later this month, a special screening of the bonus material in Los Angeles revealed a treasure trove for fans — including, most pivotally, a scene that goes beyond the TV show's now-legendary cliffhanger ending.
According to BuzzFeed, the deleted scene extends past the TV show's final shot, in which a cackling Agent Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) — apparently possessed by the spirit of BOB — smashes his face into a bathroom mirror. As the blood trickles down his face, he lies down on the floor, telling his concerned friends that he merely slipped.
