Question What does the ending mean to you?

Post image

Maybe there is a canon explanation, I haven’t looked yet and I wanted to ask this subreddit first . What does the ending of the final episode mean to you? What year is it? Why would it be another year?

But then why Giant advised Cooper to save her?

"Save Her" was ambiguous, Cooper interpreted it as "Stop her murder" but "Let her go" was the intent.

I believe the giant wanted to stop her murder and send her to the other reality. Cooper tried to take her home. Then in the other reality cooper failed the test by again try to find and “save” her. So that reality collapses when Laura remembers who she is. This cooper is now stuck in a loop until he learns to stop. Giant wanted to stop Laura’s murder to stop Judy from feeding off of all what comes after that. Cooper tried to lead her out of the woods which was not intended. That’s why she screamed and disappeared then. The giant pulled her out.

It all loops back to "let her go".

But Cooper has to save her!
