In the hotel room, Agent Cooper watched the man he come to think of as his friend scoop up the limp, lifeless body of his lover. His heart ached for Harry as he watched him rock Josie's dead body and he could feel his despair as Harry's tears fell. He knew what it was like to lose someone he'd loved as thoughts of Carolyn sprung to mind.
As he watched the scene in front of him unfold, unable to do anything for his friend, in his mind eye the image faded into red and he saw the little man, once again, dancing on the bed. This image was followed by an image of Bob and Cooper quickly realized that Leland's death hadn't ended the darkness.
As the room changed again, back to reality, the despair he felt for his friend rapidly changed to fear. Not for himself but for Harry and for the town that he was beginning to think of as home.
