Significance of Hank's 3/3 domino |

So I have finally watched Twin Peaks enough that I was interested in the mill side plot and Hank's affinity for dominos. First I just thought he liked the number three and then I noticed that when Cooper went to One Eyed Jack's the first time, Jacques had a bow tie with two dice hanging from it: the sides with 3s pointing out. So I figured that the number three was more than just a magic number. I realized that 3/3 could be a date (March 3rd). Well just so happens that that was the date of the mill fire and Cooper's shooting. So what is Hank and Jacques's relationship? Also, in a later episode Hank has a 4/4 domino. Did the series ever make to April 4th? What was Hank up to?

This really has nothing to do with the domino, but another 3 is that Coop was shot three times. The Log Lady's intro says something about the story ending with three sharp notes... Nice to see you again, MissMeliss! :D

A very popular theory is that the domino number means the people he has killed... 3/3, six people and later 4/4, eight people with the added "deaths" of Catherine and Leo...

Robert Engels said in the WIP interview (issue 58) that the domino meant something but he couldn't remember what. He said they'd worked something out.

Hmm... I am not quite sure if I buy that theory. I mean Catherine and Leo didn't really die and we have no proof that Hank ever actually killed anyone. Besides, why would Hank send the picture of the domino to Josie? To threaten her maybe, but they were working together at the time.
I might just be partial to my theory because I thought of it, but it seems to me that March 3rd being the date of the mill fire is a pretty big coincidence. I believe that the numbers on the domino are a code so that Hank could communicate with Josie and maybe Ben without arising suspicion. If the series had continued, I bet we would have seen another big crime on April 4th.

Woo! I'm glad someone remembered where that was. I was trying to remember where I'd read about the domino in a WIP interview but couldn't recall and didn't feel like going through all 75 issues to figure it out. At the '99 fest, someone asked Chris Mulkey about the domino. All he could come up with was that 3 stood for magic and double threes was mysticism, and there was a significance to Hank carrying the domino and sending Josie the drawing. And that was all he had to say. Yeah, thanks Chris. :P

It was I who queried (you can hear it on the video). I said "What's the deal with the domino?" "What's the deal?" "Yes. You like to lick it & I don't know why." Actors are oft times given waaayy too much credit for being in on things. Someone writes the words they say, someone else tells them what to do... they're (we're) kinda like puppets. And I bonded with Mulkey (both us us are Chris M.) & his wife. Saw a movie he was in from '77 at Scarecrow. Gotta rent it.

Althought perhaps the other theories have merit, I like mine best because I thought of it.

Oh I know. :) Well I never listened to Mulkey anyhow. He was drunk off his ass and I'm very aware that the actors aren't always brought into the fold as far as what things mean. Especially not with Twin Peaks. And especially not Chris Mulkey, who was a nice fellow but it was very clear from the beginning that he was just puffing us up with his own brand of nonsense because he didn't really know what else to say about the random fan queries.
