Capítulo 7 - A Última Noite (The Last Evening).


Ainda 2 de Março. Donna e James encontram a fita e o colar de Laura no escritório de Jacoby. Lá fora, o doutor fica tão atento à possível visão de Laura que não percebe o atacante em suas costas.



No Jack Caolha, Jacques começa a falar sobre a ficha. Através das escutas em Cooper, Hawk pode ouvir tudo.

Em outra sala do bordel, Blackie diz a Audrey que o dono aparecerá à noite para experimentar sua nova “mercadoria”. Quando Jacques aparece no ponto de encontro, ele é preso por Harry como suspeito do assassinato de Laura.


Mas, após uma tentativa de fuga, ele acaba no hospital, onde revela ter ido à cabana com Leo, Laura e Ronette certa noite. Na serraria, Leo prepara o incêndio, prendendo Shelly. Depois, sai anunciando que Bobby será o próximo.


Logo Hank irá atrair Catherine ao local. Enquanto isso, Josie enfrenta a chantagem de Hank, Catherine revista o escritório em busca do livro razão e Bobby telefona à polícia fingindo-se de Leo Johnson, para informar sobre o envolvimento de James Hurley com drogas. Assim, quando James está conversando com Cooper sobre o colar de coração e a fita achados na casa de Jacoby, Harry aparece com um pacote de cocaína encontrada em sua moto. Mais tarde, Audrey fica apavorada ao ver o proprietário: seu pai.


Quando Bobby vai se encontrar com Shelly, Leo está a sua espera. Porém, antes de Leo o pegar, Hank abre fogo contra ele por ordem de Ben Horne. Na serraria, Catherine desamarra Shelly pouco antes da bomba incendiária explodir. Certo de que Jacques é o assassino de sua filha, Leland entra no hospital e o mata. Cansado do longo dia, Cooper não recebe com grande interesse o telefonema de Andy. Ele nem ouve o delegado informar sobre a morte de Leo, pois uma batida à porta do quarto os interrompe. Ele vai atender e é baleado.


Obs.: O episódio termina com To Be Continued.

Roteiro e Direção: Mark Frost.



Comentários:

Nesse último episódio da primeira temporada, mais do que respostas, ganhamos foi mais perguntas, até a possível solução do asassinato de Laura ("testemunhado" pelo Waldo, antes de morrer) se mostrou um mal entendido, pois o passáro só repetiu frases ditas durante um ritual de sado masoquismo permitido e desejado...

Para não falar que não tivemos respostas, ok, a história de nossa amiga oriental esta, a cada dia mais, explicada, até a morte de seu marido, teve uma possível explicação, para o bom entendedor que queira achar que DL agia de forma simples e sempre explicava tudo de forma simples e cristalina...

Outra resposta ou possível pergunta, esta nas duas POSSIVEIS mortes, nos dois POSSIVEIS assassinatos, ocorridos neste episódio, reparem a luva de couro em ambas as cenas (fotos abaixo), alias, até o sujeito misterioso que arrebenta com o psiquiatra, tb estava todo paramentado... Serão a mesma pessoa, serão todos o Pai de Laura?

Alias, nosso amigo do FBI terá morrido? Por que? Como acabará a cena entre Audrey e seu pai? Nossa amiga Caolha (que, em tese, estava com um papel inutil) realmente morreu? dúvidas, dúvidas, muitas dúvidas...

Bom, só me resta dizer...

Até a próxima temporada!!!!!!


P.s: A segunda temporada, reiniciou 4 meses após o término da primeira...em 30 de setembro de 1990... Bons tempos esses heim...Bons tempos qdo uma temporada parava no meio (e só voltava, bem mais de 4 meses depois) p/os diretores enrolarem os fãs e ganharem dinheiro

Capítulo 6 - Tempo de Realização (Realization Time).

Quinta-feira, 2 de Março. Cooper convence Audrey que seria melhor se eles fossem apenas amigos.



Na delegacia, o Dr. Hayward e Harry estudam Waldo. Como o filme revelado apresenta uma foto de Laura com Waldo, Cooper decide deixar seu gravador na sala do pássaro no caso dele falar. Agora Cooper deseja saber se a ficha de pôquer combina com o fragmento de plástico encontrado no estômago de Laura.


Para investigar o Jack Caolha e seu empregado Jacques Renault, Harry, Cooper e os demais planejam ir como os rapazes da Bookhouse, pois o local fica além da fronteira.


Enquanto isso, Bobby vai à casa de Shelly, onde ela conta ter baleado Leo. Este os observa pela mira do rifle, pronto para atirar em Bobby. Mas ao ouvir pelo rádio da polícia que Waldo falou, ele vai à delegacia. Em outra parte, James, Madeleine, e Donna escutam a fita de Laura. Um estojo de fita vazio os faz crer que o Dr. Jacoby tem a fita e assim planejam invadir seu escritório a fim de encontrá-la. Audrey também prossegue com suas investigações, seguindo os passos de Ronette, que levam ao Jack Caolha. Ela deixa um bilhete a Cooper, indo depois ao Jack Caolha se apresentar a Blackie como uma das garotas. Na delegacia, Cooper está sendo equipado com escutas, quando ouvem um tiro. Waldo foi morto. A fita revela “não Leo, tá me machucando”.



Josie conta a Harry sobre os planos de Catherine e Ben, enquanto Catherine descobre que Josie e Ben fizeram um seguro de vida para ela. Tentando recuperar a fita com o Dr. Jacoby, Madeleine, James e Donna armam uma charada. Mas sem que eles saibam, Bobby os observa e planta cocaína na moto de James.

Roteiro: Harley Peyton. Direção: Caleb Deschanel.

Comentários:

A cada novo dia, a cada novo episódio, David Linch nos brinda, com mais e mais situações, onde pessoas normais, se mostram totalmente anormais, dentro de suas normalidades padronizadas.

Vendo os seriados e muitos filmes de hoje em dia, fica mais fácil, e de certa forma mais assustador, dar valor comparativo a DL e a Twin Peaks, pois sem enrolações, sem grandes mistérios, ou até independente dos existentes, nos é mostrado um universo de pessoas normais, completamente doentio e estranho, de tão normal!!


Com relação a este episódio, pouco a pouco as coisas estão se encaminhando p/o fim da temporada (que teve 7 episódios - contando o duplo inicial, como sendo um só), as pessoas normais (normais???) como Audrey, Madeleine, James e Donna estão chegando perto da solução do problema, as pessoas "da lei", também estão adquirindo mais informações (a fita de Waldo, nos disse muuuuita coisa, maaaaaaaaaaaaas teria mesmo algo a ver com o assassinato) e, o povo do mal, esta a cada novo episódio, mostrando suas ligações e a podridão existente naquela cidade tão "pacata".

Essa primeira temporada é maravilhosa!! Personagens, enredo, dialogos, situações de tensão, música, fotografia (o que foi aquela cena dos donnuts com o sangue de Waldo?????). Pena que DL largaria (mais p/frente) a série por uns tempos, maaas vamos deixar p/falar disso, qdo "isso" chegar hehehehe

Até o próximo, e último, episódio da primeira temporada !!

Capítulo 5 - Os Sonhos de Cooper (Cooper's Dreams).
Quarta-feira, 1º de Março. Uma busca no apartamento de Jacques Renault resulta em outro exemplar da revista Mundo Cão. Aparentemente, Ronette era sua correspondente. Enquanto investigam, o Dr. Hayward aparece com a informação de que o sangue na camisa de Leo não pertence a Laura. Cooper também encontra a foto de uma cabana com cortinas vermelhas no apartamento e um anúncio com Laura. Hawk então conduz Cooper e Harry à cabana de Jacques no meio da floresta. Nas proximidades, eles encontram a senhora do cepo, cujo cepo ela afirma ter visto coisas na noite do crime, luzes, gritos distantes, vozes e corujas.

Ao entrarem na cabana, eles encontram Waldo, uma câmera com filme, sangue no chão, cordas e fichas de pôquer do Jack Caolha.

Igualmente empenhada na investigação, Audrey arranja um emprego no setor de perfumaria da loja de Horne, exatamente como Laura e Ronette. No RR, Madeleine se encontra com James e Donna para conversar sobre os segredos de Laura. Sem que eles saibam, Hank os escuta à certa distância.Depois, ao ver Catherine com Ben no Grande Hotel, Audrey os observa secretamente no escritório do pai, onde ouve o plano do incêndio.


A conversa é interrompida pela entrada de Leland, que, descontrolado com a perda da filha, começa a dançar como louco. Mais tarde, Ben trai Catherine e une-se a Josie, pedindo o livro razão da serraria.
Na residência Palmer, Madeleine telefona a Donna para informar ter encontrado uma fita gravada por Laura, escondida no quarto. Após ser espancado por Hank, Leo volta para casa e vinga-se em Shelly. Ela então pega uma arma e dispara. No hotel, Cooper chega cansado e percebe sua porta entreaberta. Ele saca a arma e encontra Audrey nua na cama.


Roteiro: Mark Frost. Direção: Lesli Linka Glatter.

Comentários:
Pois bem, inicialmente algumas correções ao resumo acima, pois os policiais não "encontram a senhora do cepo" nas proximidades, maaaaaaaaas sim, são encontrados e "esperados" por ela, na "sacada" (não sei o termo técnico p/aquela parte de fora das cabanas que são mostradas em produções americanas) da cabana. Em seguida, outro ponto a ser corrigido reside no fato de que da cabana onde eles encontram a senhora do cepo (ou do tronco - eu prefiro-), eles vão p/outra cabana, agora sim a certa, com cortinas vermelhas e tal...

Feitas tais colocações, entendo que merece um maior destaque a aparição do corvo (se fosse em lost, já teriamos uma infinidade de topicos com 1000 participações, discutindo o Corvo heheheh Definitivamente TP, passou na epoca errada), repito p/vcs prestarem maior atenção na história envolvendo a Josie, e cá entre nós, o pai da Laura já encheu...


Mas não deixem de prestar atenção na história dele também, alias, nunca me canso de repetir, em se tratando de TP, prestem atenção em tudo, principalmente (e nem tanto pelo seriado hehehehe) em Audrey!!

ACT ONE

FADE IN:

INT. GREAT NORTHERN DALE COOPER'S ROOM - NIGHT

Through the walls from adjacent rooms we hear whooping and hollering, a blowing of horns
and ratcheting noise makers. It sounds like a rodeo in Times Square on New Year's Eve.
DALE COOPER sits up in bed, distraught, sleepless. From the bedside table, he picks up his
watch and tape recorder.

COOPER
Diane, it's 4:28 a.m., I've just been woken up by the
most god-awful racket, which you can probably hear over
the sound of my voice ...
(holds up the recorder to capture the sound)
Can you hear that?
(holds it up again)
I've experienced nothing at the Great Northern up until
this moment but the most pleasant, courteous service
imaginable, but this only goes to prove the point that the
minute a traveler leaves home he loses almost 100% of
his ability to control his environment. Diane, I'm
wondering if you could overnight express to me two pair
of those Ear-Pillow Silicon Ear Plugs I used the last
time I had to visit New York. Naturally I didn't bring
them with me on this trip because I didn't think they'd
be necessary ...

He holds the recorder up again.
CUT TO:
2. INT. GREAT NORTHERN DINING ROOM - DAY

Dale Cooper, dressed and slightly bleary-eyed, enters and takes the corner table. Off screen,
through a door to a private dining room, we HEAR a rowdy group of about twelve men and
women singing a bawdy Icelandic drinking song. Harried WAITRESSES come and go out
of the room, bearing huge platters of food. TRUDY approaches Cooper.

TRUDY
Coffee? (reaching Cooper)

COOPER
Please.
(she pours)
What's with the choir practice?

TRUDY
Business junket. From Iceland. Got in about three this
morning.

2. CONTINUED:

COOPER
They're on my floor.

TRUDY
Lucky you.

COOPER
It'll take them a day or so to reset their biological
clocks.

WAITRESS
Hope the herring holds out.

He holds out his cup for a refill. She pours. The Icelanders start another song

AUDREY HORNE enters, looking for Cooper, brightens, moves to his table.

AUDREY
How are you?

COOPER
To be perfectly honest, Audrey, I'm tired and a little
on edge.

AUDREY
(sits, saddened)
Oh.
(hoping for approval)
I got a job.

COOPER
That's excellent -

AUDREY
And I thought maybe now I could help you with your
case, guess where I'm -

COOPER
(finishing, rising)
You'll have to excuse me, Audrey, I'm running late this
morning, I only have time for coffee.

AUDREY
Maybe I could go with you.

COOPER
(leaving change, taking receipt)
Thursdays were traditionally a school day when I was

COOPER (CONTINUED)

AUDREY
I can't believe you were ever my age.

COOPER
I've got the pictures to prove it. See you later, Audrey.

AUDREY
See you later. Bye.

She wistfully watches him go. Digs her nails into her palms. The Icelandic group finishes
another song and roars with laughter. JERRY HORNE enters from the private dining room,
carrying a small suitcase, laughing, along with the head Icelander, EINER THORSON. Jerry
claps Einer on the back, they shake hands and embrace and say something in Icelandic. Jerry
turns back to the room and yells to the Icelanders inside ...

JERRY
My brother is going to love you guys!

Jerry exits the dining room.
CUT TO:
3. INT. GREAT NORTHERN HOTEL OFFICE - DAY

BEN HORNE is behind his desk when Jerry hurries in with his bag.

JERRY
I bring you greetings from the fertile, treeless tundra of
Iceland! Brother Ben, there aren't two twigs to rub
together on the whole island - wait'll these guys get a
load of the woods!

BEN
By six this morning we had complaints from nearly
every guest in the hotel, what are they on, nitrous oxide?

JERRY
I have had more serious fun in two days with these nordic
animals and Ben, I'm in love, her name is Heba, she's a
giant snow queen with a smile like sunrise on a ice floe,
you could go blind looking at this girl - look at this
(takes a large package out of his bag)
You see what she gave me? An entire leg lamb!
(unwraps it; huge and slightly grotesque)
Is that beautiful? Chunk some garlic in there, some
crushed mint: rotisserie heaven - come on, you got to
meet 'her -

(CONTINUED)





(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)

3. CONTINUED:

BEN
Let 'em sack out for a few hours first, now have they
approved our proposal?

TERRY
(refers to the Ghostwood project map)
Ben, hip pocket, glasnost on ice, they are insane for
Ghostwood Estates. We're on the plane, they're begging
me, "Jerry, please, let us write the check - you fill in the
blanks."



BEN
Let's not be eager beavers until the ink's dry. You grab
some down time. We've laid in a a gala reception for
your fair-haired boys tonight - all of Twin Peaks best
and brightest -

JERRY
'We holding it in a phone booth?

BEN
- and if we still need a kicker to nail the sale I'm
thinking maybe they might enjoy a road trip up to you-
know-where.
(holds a hand over one eye)

JERRY
Jacks!

LELAND'S VOICE
B-b-ben?

A haggard, unshaven LELAND PALMER is standing in the doorway.

BEN
Leland, what are you doing here?

LELAND
I know the new investment group is arriving today ... if
there's anything I can do ...

(CONTINUED)






(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)


3. CONTINUED:(2)

BEN
Leland, the best thing you can do right now is follow the
doctor's orders and go home, you need your rest -

LELAND
I just feel ... I just feel I need something, I need
something to ... to occupy my mind ...
(close to tears)

JERRY
(gestures behind Leland's back)
Check-out time.

BEN
Take some time off, for god's sake, fly somewhere, take
Sarah -

LELAND
(unraveling)
I'm afraid to go ...

He crumbles into a chair. From the hallway, we hear the voices of approaching
ICELANDERS, singing another ribald song. Jerry nimbly moves to the door and quietly
shuts it. Ben tries to hush Leland's sobs. The singers continue singing, directly outside the
door now. Then they move on ... Ben and Jerry breathe a sigh of relief. Ben points at Leland,
then sticks up his thumb, "get this guy out of here."

4. EXT. APARTMENT BUILDING - DAY

Re-establish. Police cars parked outside.
CUT TO:

5. INT. JACQUES RENAULT'S APARTMENT - DAY

Cooper enters the apartment and is met by SHERIFF HARRY TRUMAN, who is supervising
the investigation of the apartment. TROOPERS and two FORENSIC COPS in plain
clothes are working. DOC HAYWARD is on the phone.

TRUMAN
Morning.

COOPER
What've we got, Harry?

TRUMAN
Jacques Renault's a Canadian national, worked the local
lumber fields until he put on a little excess tonnage a
couple seasons ago. That's when he started tending bar
at the Roadhouse.
(CONTINUED)



(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)

5. CONTINUED:

COOPER
Do you have any doughnuts here?

TRUMAN
Andy?

Gestures "doughnut", points to Cooper, to ANDY, who nods and starts out.

COOPER
Better wash that down with a cup of joe, I didn't sleep
too well last night.

TRUMAN.
(gestures "coffee" to Andy before he exits)
You're looking a little peaked.

COOPER
There's a large group of insane men staying on my floor.
Where is Jacques Renault, Harry?

TRUMAN
No one's seen him for two days. We've canvassed the
building and the Roadhouse, I sent Hawk to roust his
brother but it looks like Bernie skipped bail; no sign.

Cooper looks up at a ceiling light fixture, as Doc Hayward hangs up the phone and crosses to
them.

HAYWARD
Morning, Agent Cooper.

COOPER
(still looking up)
Doc.

HAYWARD
The blood on that shirt you found here is AB negative.
It's not Laura's blood.

COOPER
So that was Jacques Renault's blood on Leo Johnson's
shirt.

Truman and Doc look at each other. Doc goes back to the phone and dials. Andy returns with
Cooper's coffee and doughnut. Cooper takes them, still looking up.

COOPER
Thank you, Andy.
(more)
(CONTINUED)




(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)


5. CONTINUED:(2)

COOPER (CONTINUED)
(takes a bite and a sip)
Could you hold these for a second?

He hands the coffee and doughnut back to Andy, looks up again.

COOPER (CONTINUED)
Where's Leo Johnson, Harry?

TRUMAN
The APB went out last night, nothing yet.

COOPER
Give me a leg up here, would you Harry?

Truman cradles his hands, Cooper takes out a pair of calipers, steps into the cradle and
Truman boosts his up and out of frame. Doc Hayward hangs up the phone and returns.

HAYWARD
Jacques Renault's blood is AB negative.

COOPER
(out of frame)
Thank you, Doc.

Cooper comes back down into frame, gingerly holding a dusty copy of "FLESH WORLD"
Magazine in the calipers. He sets it down on a table, blows off some dust and turns pages with
the calipers.

TRUMAN
"Flesh World" again.

COOPER
Harry, remember this ad with the picture of Ronette
Pulaski?

He turns to the page in question. There's an opened envelope between the pages, with a letter
inside. Cooper carefully removes the envelope.

TRUMAN
We traced that ad. Came into the magazine in a plain
envelope, no name -

COOPER
Here's how it works. The magazine's a clearing house.
Readers write letters in response to ads and send them
into the magazine, then the magazine mails those letters
on to the advertiser. No direct contact.

(CONTINUED)




(Revised 11/1/89, BLUE)


5. CONTINUED:(3)

COOPER (CONTINUED)
(shows him the envelope)
Ronette received her letters at this P.O. Box.

TRUMAN
That's a local zip code.

COOPER
My guess is this P.O. box will be registered in the name
of Jacques Renault. Let's see who was writing to
Ronette. Post marked Georgia.

He takes out the letter. There are a couple of snapshots inside as well. Cooper, Truman and
Doc look at the snapshots.

HAYWARD
Good night.

TRUMAN
That guy's no Georgia peach.

COOPER
Somehow the beard ruins the effect of the lingerie, don't
you think?
(scans the letter)
Poor bastard.
(folds it up, goes back to the magazine)
By the way, Harry, did you happen to notice the picture
of Leo Johnson and his truck on this page?

Points to the picture of a silver truck cab which we saw before.
CUT TO:
6. EXT. JOHNSON HOUSE - DAY

Leo's truck, the truck in the picture, is parked outside.

CUT TO:
7. INT. JOHNSON'S KITCHEN - DAY

SHELLY JOHNSON is serving a hot breakfast to BOBBY BRIGGS. He's dressed, she's in a
robe. She sets the plate down in front of him. He eats ravenously.

BOBBY
I love when you cook for me.

SHELLY
Leo hates my cooking.

7. CONTINUED:

BOBBY
Leo has missed the boat with you, baby. The biggest
mistake of your life was dropping out of the eleventh
grade and marrying that roadhog.

SHELLY
(amused and excited)
What would you do if he walked in right now?

BOBBY
(a hot look)
Come here.
(pats his leg)
Come here.

She sits on his leg. He hugs her, kisses her neck, looks up, mock surprise.

BOBBY (CONTINUED)
Hey, Leo, how's it going, man? What a surprise!

With a big smile he draws Shelly's nickel-plated revolver out of the pocket of her robe and
points it at the imaginary Leo.

BOBBY (CONTINUED)
Now, Leo, Shelly tells me you don't like her cooking.
Tell you what, she and I, we're going to sit here while
you cook breakfast for us, you scumbag, and if you so
much as say one harsh word to this beautiful girl, I'm
going to shoot your ugly face off. Okay, Leo?

He smiles. Shelly laughs. They hear a car drive up outside. Bobby looks out the window.

BOBBY (CONTINUED
Sheriff's deputy. Shelly, you tell him exactly what I
told you to, just like we talked about, okay?

SHELLY
Okay.

The doorbell rings. Bobby kisses her, she goes to the door. Bobby takes the gun and conceals
himself in a room off the kitchen. We hear voices.

Hi... sure, come on in.

SHELLY
Sorry, he never tells me where he's going.

She lights a smoke and sneaks a look back at Bobby. She winks. Bobby smiles.

SHELLY (CONTINUED)
They called and said you were looking for him, is Leo
in some kind of trouble?

ANDY
(looking into the kitchen)
We just need to talk to him.

SHELLY
This isn't about Laura or anything is it?

ANDY
Why do you say that?

SHELLY
Well, I don't know. I did hear him talking to this guy
the night he left -

ANDY
Which guy?

SHELLY
This guy Jacques Renault? They were outside by Leo's
truck, I could hear 'em, from over in the kitchen -

ANDY
What did they say?

SHELLY
I couldn't hear exactly. They were arguing but I did
hear them mention her name, then they took off together.

ANDY
Shelly, you call us the minute he gets in touch with you,
you be careful of Leo -

SHELLY
You don't have to tell me that twice. Thanks for
stopping by, Andy.

They move back to the door. Bobby puts the gun in his pocket. Shelly comes back to the
kitchen, Bobby grabs her and kisses her passionately.

SHELLY
How'd I do?

BOBBY
You were great. God, you drive me crazy.

The phone rings. Twice. Shelly answers, as Bobby still kisses her.

SHELLY
Hello? ... hey, Leo, where you calling from?

Bobby stops pawing her, gives her another signal. She responds.

SHELLY (CONTINUED)
What's that? Is anybody looking for you?
(Bobby shakes his head)
Leo, what would anybody be looking for you for? ...
(Bobby nods, encouraging her to continue)
Leo, you know how paranoid you get when you've been
popping bennies on the road a couple days ... so, when
you coming home?

Bobby slips the gun into her hand. She looks at it, looks at Bobby.

Everything's fine, come on home, Leo ... I miss you, too.

ED
Those are hard thoughts.

JAMES

God, I'm ... so ashamed of her.

ED
That doesn't mean we give up. We have to keep trying.

JAMES
What's left to do? Talk about it some more? She won't
get help, she won't listen to either one of us -

ED
I don't know what else we can do --

JAMES
She's killing herself... I don't want to hate her, Ed, but

Hey, you don't have to explain.

Maybe that's our trouble, Ed, we never want to hurt

Please, please, come in, sit, sit, can I get you something
to drink, Miss Horne, coffee?

AUDREY
Audrey. Call me Audrey. Nothing, thank you.

BATTIS
Audrey, yes, well, call me Emory.
(an admiring gaze)
My, my, I can remember when your father used to bring
you down here when you were just a little girl -

AUDREY
Did you used to bounce me on your knee, Emory?

BATTIS
(a coughing fit)
Doesn't the time just fly right by -

AUDREY
(has him pegged; a turkey)
So did my father speak to you?

BATTIS
Yes, yes he did, and I can't tell you how excited we are,
Audrey, that you want to come on board and put in a
hitch with us down here at our flagship -

AUDREY
Thank you -

BATTIS
You know, here at Horne's Department Store we carry on

Save it for the customers, Emory.

BATTIS

Excuse me?

AUDREY
You don't exactly have to "sell" me on the place, do
you?

BATTIS
(nervous laugh)
I see your point, indeed I don't, no siree -

AUDREY
(preening)
So... what did you have in mind for me?

BATTIS
(looks, then nervously consults notes)
Let's see, let's see, I suppose driving a delivery truck is
out of the question -
(laughs politely, she pretends to)
Well Audrey, per your father's suggestion, starting low,
aiming high, etc. ... we thought perhaps the wrapping
department.

AUDREY
Wrapping?

BATTIS
Boxes, gifts, etc, etc. Part time, after school.

AUDREY
No, no, no, no; Emory, ix-nay on the oxes-bay.

BATTIS
Certainly not the most glamorous job in the store, but
then your father did specify --

AUDREY
Emory, may I speak frankly?

BATTIS
Oh please do.

AUDREY
Let's talk retail.

BATTIS
Sales?

AUDREY
Perfume.

A slight tremor runs across his features. She picks up on it.

BATTIS
One of our more sensitive areas. Expensive items,
delicate customer relations -

AUDREY
I'm afraid I've got my heart set on it.

BATTIS
(more than reluctant)
I'd have to speak to your father -

AUDREY
Emory, here's what we're going to do. You're going to
to tell my father I'm busy as a bee wrapping boxes down
with the drones and then you're going to put me to work
behind the perfume counter this afternoon --
(before he can speak)
because if you don't I'm going to rip my sweater in
half and scream at the top of my lungs and tell my father
you made a pass at me. Does that help clear things up
for you? Emory?

She grabs her sweater, ready to rip and scream.

BATTIS
Yes. Yes.

AUDREY

Yes what?

BATTIS
Yes, Ms. Horne.

He turns, sees her, they embrace.

DONNA (CONTINUED)
I got your note
(he still holds her)
Are you all right?

JAMES
Donna, there's a few things I gotta say.

DONNA
What?

JAMES
(extremely difficult for him)
I told you my Dad died when I was ten? ... He didn't
die. We were living in San Francisco. He was a
musician. He was a bum and he ran off and he left us, me
and my mom.

DONNA
I'm sorry.

JAMES
(a rush of intensity)
My mom grew up out here. That's why we moved back.
My mom was a writer, she was good, poems, short
stories. She's an alcoholic.
(looks at her)
If you have a problem with this, I know you didn't ask
to hear it ...

DONNA
I don't have a problem. You tell me.

He's too ashamed to continue. She holds him.

DONNA
It's all right.

JAMES
I'm telling you this because I don't want to have any
secrets from you, I don't want there to be any lies
between us. It's the secrets people keep that destroy any
chance they have for happiness and I don't want us to be
like that...

DONNA
We won't. We won't be.

He kisses her, they hold on to each other.

JAMES
We have to do what's right. What you said yesterday
was true; if we don't do everything we can to figure out
what happened to Laura it'll never go away, our whole
lives -

DONNA
We will, James.

JAMES
She's out there, wandering like a restless spirit -

DONNA
I feel it, too. We owe it to her.

JAMES
(searingly honest)
And we owe it to ourselves or else somehow, someday

CLOSE on a plate of doughnuts as they're passed among the cops working at the scene. STAY
WITH Dale Cooper as he takes one and grabs a bite as he looks through some drawers in the
kitchen. He's wearing surgical gloves. He takes a bill out of the drawer, lays it thoughtfully
on the counter. He opens a cabinet; a red-and-black plaid shirt hangs inside. A number of
postcards and photographs are thumbtacked to the inside of the door.

DEPUTY HAWK arrives, hands a packet of letters to Truman, they cross to Cooper.

HAWK
That PO box was registered to Jacques Renault.

COOPER

These are all from people responding to Ronette's ad in

Laura's cousin, MADELEINE FERGUSON enters, looks around. James and Donna are
seated at a booth.

She sees them, smiles, crosses over. James rises. Madeleine sits across from them. There's a
MAN sitting alone in the next booth, his back to them.

MADELEINE
Hi. Hi.

DONNA
Hi, I'm Donna Hayward.

MADELEINE
My friends call me Maddy. This is really nice of you
guys. I don't really know anybody in town except Aunt
Sarah and Uncle Leland. And the mood at the house,
you can probably guess, isn't so great right now.

James gets up, goes to the counter.

DONNA
Madeleine, what we wanted to talk to you about ... if I
said you can't, really say a word of this to anybody else,
not a soul, not even your aunt or uncle, would that be
okay with you?

MADELEINE
(lightly)
Sounds like some big secret.

DONNA
It is. Madeleine, James and I knew Laura better than
anyone. She was in some kind of terrible trouble before
she died, worse than any of us could imagine -

MADELEINE
(eyes widening)
What?

James returns with her drink, sits.

DONNA
I'd rather not say too much about things we can't prove

In some ways, the less you know about it the better.

MADELEINE
You said you can't prove it "yet."

DONNA
We loved Laura. We're afraid the truth might never
come out or that the person who killed her might never
be caught. We've sworn on her memory not to let that
happen.

MADELEINE
... my God. 'You know who did it?

JAMES
We have some ideas.



DONNA
We wanted to talk to you because we need your help.



MADELEINE
What do you want me to do?


DONNA
Laura used to talk about a hiding place she had,
somewhere in her house, maybe her room, I'm not sure.
Nobody else knew about it. We think she may have left
something there that could lead us to the killer.

Pause.

MADELEINE
I'll help you.

DONNA
You will?

MADELEINE
Absolutely.

That's great.

MADELEINE
You know, I didn't really know Laura that well, but I
feel like I do, our folks were always telling us how much
alike we were ...

As she speaks, CAMERA MOVES around and behind to the next booth to reveal the Man
sitting with his back to them: it's HANK JENNINGS. He's heard the entire conversation.
He takes a slow sip of coffee. He's fingering his domino key chain.

James, Donna and Madeleine rise and start out.

DONNA
Will you call me if there's anything I can do?

MADELEINE
I don't think there'll be any problem

JAMES
Madeleine, this is really great.

MADELEINE
Call me Maddy.

They're out the door. Hank smiles. A few moments later, Shelly and Norma enter, all
dolled up from the beauty parlor, laughing.

SHELLY

NORMA
Shelly, I don't think you know how good looking you
really are.

SHELLY
I sure never felt so glamorous, hope I don't chip a nail

Not much meat on her.

I don't expect a kiss or anything. Figure I have to earn

So, where do I start? I'll wash dishes. Maybe work my

MRS. BRIGGS
He's been spending more and more of his time alone in
his room.

MAJOR BRIGGS
It's become much more difficult to engage him in
conversation.

MRS. BRIGGS
Terrible mood swings.

MAJOR BRIGGS
We've been told by the school that his attendance has

MRS. BRIGGS
And of course the recent trouble with public fighting.
Both at the Roadhouse and the funeral.

And now we see who they're talking to, sitting in a leather chair, nodding sagely ...

Are you using drugs, Bobby?

BOBBY
No I'm not.

DR. JACOBY
What else did she tell you?
(silence)
Did she tell you there was no goodness in the world?

BOBBY
She said people tried to be good but they were really
sick and rotten, her most of all, and the harder she tried
to be good the more rotten she felt because it didn't
mean anything, because every time she tried to help the
world be a better place something terrible came up
inside her and pulled her back down into hell, it took her
deeper and deeper into the blackest nightmare and every
time it got harder to go back up to the light.

Pause.

DR. JACOBY
(on the case)
Did you sometimes have the feeling that Laura was
harboring some awful secret?

BOBBY
Yes.

DR. JACOBY
Bad enough that she wanted to die because of it?

BOBBY
Yes.

DR. JACOBY
Bad enough that it drove her to consciously try to find
people's weaknesses and prey on them, tempt them,
break them down, make them do terrible, degrading
things?

BOBBY
(shocked and frightened)
Yes.

DR. JACOBY
Laura wanted to corrupt people, because that's how she

drapes, letting more light into the room.

On a simple record player, the tone arm pulled back over a 45 record, the song ends again, the
stylus lifts, returns to the outside, then back onto the outside edge of the record. Scratches,
pops, then the song starts again.

COOPER
(under his breath)
... and there's always music in the air..."

Cooper lifts the stylus off the record. All three men proceed with extreme care, trying not to
move or disturb anything.

The single room is dusty, trashy, a low-rent version of a harem room: an overstuffed
davenport, cheap oriental throw rugs, tasseled satin pillows, empty bottles and full ashtrays.

On a tripod, a 35 millimeter camera, facing a small photo bay created by the drapes and
pillows. Hawk checks it out.

HAWK
There's film in here.

Hawk takes out an evidence bag, removes the film.

Cooper finds a spool of twine lying on the floor

Another tripod shaped object, covered with a cloth. Truman slowly draws the cloth off ... a

Hawk, looking past Cooper, sees the lamp ...

HAWK
Watch out.

Cooper avoids the lamp as it crashes to the floor. Something skitters off the lamp and rolls
under the davenport Hawk and Cooper look at each other. Cooper reaches in under the
davenport, feels around, finds something. He pulls it out
INTERCUT:
31. A POKER CHIP

A thousand dollar chip, with a small chunk missing. It reads: "ONE-EYED (J)ACK'S"

Cooper and Hawk look at each other.

ACT FOUR

FADE IN:

32. INT. GREAT NORTHERN HOTEL BANQUET ROOM NIGHT

A banner reads:

"FROM ICELAND TO TWIN PEAKS: A GREAT NORTHERN WELCOME!!"

Festive, folksy Icelandic music, plays over the sound system. The reception party is just under
way. CITIZENS mingle with the Icelanders, who cluster around the L-shaped buffet. The
Horne brothers mingle prominently. At the piano, Trudy leads a group of Icelanders in an
Icelandic version of Home on the Range."
CUT TO:

33. INT. BANQUET ROOM ENTRANCE - NIGHT

Script above the door reads, "TIMBER ROOM." A HOTEL EMPLOYEE is at the door,
checking a guest list as people arrive. PETE and CATHERINE MARTELL reach the door.

CATHERINE
Catherine.Martell and spouse.

They're checked off the list and enter. We follow them.

PETE
Go easy on the sauce tonight, okay Cathy?

She stops a passing WAITER with a tray of champagne. Takes two glasses. Slugs one down.

CATHERINE
A few belts and even you might start to look good to
me.

She knocks back the second one, replaces the glasses on the Waiter's tray, takes another glass
and moves off, leaving Pete.
CUT TO:
34. MAJOR BRIGGS AND EINER THORSON

The Officer chats up the head Icelander, while they graze from the buffet.

MAJOR BRIGGS
- of course the modern age has changed forever the way
your people live, Mr. Thorson, but my guess would be
that there still remains a tremendous vestigial interest in
the legends and folklore of ancient Iceland.

EINER
(smiles, doesn't have a clue)
Vestigial. Absolutely.

(CONTINUED)



(Revised 11-1-89 - Blue)


34. CONTINUED:

MAJOR BRIGGS
I know, speaking for myself, that I find these last
remnants of a connection to a natural, more primitive,
almost pagan way of life, endlessly fascinating; locally,
for instance, we have the Sasquatch mythos, or Bigfoot, a
large, evil smelling forest-dweller, which I suppose
would correspond to your "huldufolk" or hidden people.

EINER
Trolls?

MAJOR BRIGGS
Exactly.
(confidentially)
I also happen to be a firm believer in the UFO. I've
seen some high-level classified data that would curl your
hair.
CUT TO:
34A. JERRY HORNE

Jerry is all agog with the new object of his affection, the tall and beautiful Icelandic girl,
HEBA THORSDOTTIR, who's playing with him.

JERRY
Heba. Take a bite of that salmon tartare.
(he feeds her)
Did you know that was an American figure of speech?

HEBA
No, Jerry.

JERRY
"Heba-heba." You've never heard that before?

HEBA
No, Jerry.

JERRY
Do you realize the incredible potential that could result
from our taking a mutual dip into each other's respective
gene pools?
(she doesn't understand the words, but she gets
his meaning; they flirt)
Heba ...
(almost a declaration of love)
... I am going to cook for you.

35. CATHERINE MARTELL

Snaring another drink, she spots Benjamin Home chatting up some Icelanders two clusters
away, makes her way to him. She clears her throat, trying to get his attention. He chats on.
She does it again. No luck. She deliberately spills her drink on his shoe.

CATHERINE
Oh.

BEN
Excuse me, gentlemen.

He takes her by the arm and steers her away. Quiet and angry.

BEN (CONTINUED)
My office, give me two minutes to break away.

CATHERINE
(stops, looks at him; a threat)
"Hell hath no fury..."

BEN
What?
(he sees her look)
Two minutes.

He moves off. She grabs another drink and heads for an exit. She passes Audrey, who's semi-
hiding behind a large wooden column, watching the party with bright, disturbed eyes.
Moments later, she watches Ben leave by the same exit. She follows him.

CUT TO:
36. INT. TIMBER ROOM ENTRANCE - NIGHT

JOSIE PACKARD enters the room, looks around, a little lonely and out of place. She moves
to Pete, who's piling up a massive plate of food at the buffet.

JOSIE
Hello, Pete.

PETE
Hey, Josie, quite a spread they laid out, grab yourself
some grub.

JOSIE
(taking a plate, looking around)
So these are the Icemen?

PETE
Somethin' like that.

CUT TO:

37. LELAND PALMER

At the entrance, Leland Palmer shuffles into the room. He's pale, clean shaven but sporting a
large piece of tissue paper stuck to a shaving mishap on his jaw line. He looks shakily around,
wanting very badly to fit in.
CUT TO:
38. INT. HOTEL CORRIDOR - NIGHT

Alone in the hallway, Audrey stops at a small secret door, opens it.
CUT TO:

39. INT. HOTEL WIRING CORRIDOR - NIGHT

Audrey moves a short distance down the corridor in dim light, kneels and slides a cover off a
drilled peephole and looks into ...
INTERCUT:

40. AUDREY'S POV - INT. BEN HORNE'S OFFICE

Catherine pours a drink at the bar, Ben takes the decanter of Scotch from her, pops the top in.

BEN
You're impossible.

CATHERINE
Tell me again, Ben, tell me what you're going to do

BEN
Speak English.

CATHERINE
Tell me how you're going to drive the mill into the
ground, grind that little Chinese flower to a fine dust,
regain control of my brother's land, leave your wife and
marry me.

Audrey reacts.

BEN
And they all lived happily ever after.

CATHERINE
(pleasantly)
Look into my eyes, Ben. Do I look blind to you?

BEN
Excuse me?

CATHERINE
(still pleasant, takes out the chip)
Why did you have this thousand dollar poker chip from
you know where in your pants yesterday?

(CONTINUED)



(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)


40. CONTINUED:

Ben looks at it, knows he's nailed. Straight-faced.

BEN
Jerry gave that to me.

She slaps him. He calmly pours himself a drink.

BEN (CONTINUED)
It's a good luck charm that I thought I'd lost. I'm so
relieved you've found it.

She slaps him again. He sighs.

BEN (CONTINUED)
Are you quite finished?

She slaps him again. Satisfied, a bit hot.

CATHERINE
Yes.

She hands him the chip. He grabs her and kisses her hard.

Audrey is laughing so hard she has to cover her mouth and turn away from the peephole.

CUT TO:
41. BEN AND CATHERINE

BEN
(breaking off, breathless)
Not here.

CATHERINE
(whispers)
Let's burn the mill, let's do it, tonight.

BEN
We'll just slip away from the party and hope no one
detects the smell of kerosene upon return, no, my love,
we'll give Josie one last chance to sell.

CATHERINE
You'll talk to her.

BEN
Tonight. Failing that, I've retained the services of a
qualified professional.
(takes one, offers one to her)
Breath mint?
CUT TO:



(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)


42. INT. HOTEL CORRIDOR - NIGHT

Audrey comes out the same small door, closes it behind her. She staggers along the corridor,
letting out her laughter, big bursts, hysterical and gilded with an edge of desperation and
madness.
CUT TO:
INT. KING SALMON ROOM - NIGHT

Pete stands next to Einer Thorson, the head Icelander, both holding plates of food.

PETE
Now let me get this straight; your entire country is
above the timber line?

His mouth full of food, Einer nods.

JERRY HORNE'S VOICE
(amplified)
Folks, ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention
please?
CUT TO:

44. JERRY HORNE

On a one-step riser at the end of the room, at a microphone.

JERRY
Can I have your attention please?

As the crowd congregates towards that side of the room.

JERRY (CONTINUED)
First off, I want to thank you all for turning out tonight
to welcome our neighbors from the magical island of
Iceland. The Ghostwood Estates project is an important
part of our future here in Twin Peaks, and there's no
group we'd rather have as a partner in our future than -

He's drowned out by the blaring sound of big band music from the speakers.

CUT TO:
45. LELAND PALMER

In the middle of the dance floor, he starts to go, a solitary jitterbug. People clear out around
him.
CUT TO:
46. BEN AND CATHERINE

Re-entering the room. Ben exchanges a look with Jerry, who's panicking. Ben whispers to
Catherine.

(CONTINUED)


(Revised 11/7/89, PINK)


46. CONTINUED:

BEN
Dance with him.
(she gives him a look)
This is serious.

Catherine moves out towards Leland.
CUT TO:
LELAND AND CATHERINE

He slickly incorporates her into his dance and they commence to cut a pretty mean rug.
Leland is pouring down tears and making little moaning sounds, but the crowd, happily
clapping along and half-soused, doesn't pick up those details.
INTERCUT:
48 . BEN AND JERRY.

Ben makes his way to his brother.

BEN
Get Jacoby, get a net, get him out of my life.

Jerry nods and moves off. Before he can get very far, he's pulled out onto the floor by Heba
and they begin to jitterbug.
CUT TO:
49. OMITTED
50. OMITTED

51. DANCE FLOOR - HIGH ANGLE

The Icelanders love this new dance craze and spill onto the floor, doing their best to duplicate
Leland's style ...
CUT TO:
52. LELAND AND CATHERINE

Leland picks up his pace. Catherine realizes she's dancing with a man teetering on the edge of
a meltdown.
CUT TO:
53. AUDREY.

Watching from behind a post, away from the dance floor. She's crying.

54. EXT. PALMER HOUSE - NIGHT

Establish.
CUT TO:
55. INT. PALMER LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

Darkness. Madeleine creeps into the room, wearing a nightgown, carrying a shoe box. A
floorboard creaks. She gives a look back upstairs, turns on a lamp, sits, picks up a phone and
quietly dials a number. Waits. Whispers.

MADELEINE
Donna? It's Maddy ... I was looking in Laura's closet
and I couldn't find anything but I looked up and noticed
there was a loose ceiling panel? ... yes, that was her
hiding place, I pushed the panel back, there was a shoe
box up there ...

She takes off the cover of the box.
INTERCUT:
56. THE SHOE BOX

We see four audio cassette tape cases inside. On the top case we can read: "To Dr. Jacoby."
There's a noise from upstairs that startles her.

MADELEINE (CONTINUED)
I'll meet you and James tomorrow. Bring a tape
recorder.

She hangs up, turns off the lamp, puts the cover back on the shoe box and goes back out of the
room.
CUT TO:
57. INT. BEN HORNE'S OFFICE - NIGHT

Darkness. Sounds of the party continue elsewhere. As our eyes become accustomed to the
darkness, we see someone sitting at Ben's desk and the red glow of a cigarette as they inhale.

The door opens. Ben enters the room. Josie turns on the lamp at the desk where she's seated.
Ben crosses to the desk.

BEN
Did anyone see you come in here?

JOSIE
No.

BEN
You do realize the risk if anyone sees us.

(CONTINUED)



(Revised 11/8/89, YELLOW)


57. CONTINUED:

JOSIE
Yes.

He sits on the edge of the desk. Josie puts out her cigarette.

JOSIE (CONTINUED)
How much longer, Benjamin?

BEN
Tomorrow night.

They look at each other. She slowly extends her hand. He takes her hand and kisses it
tenderly. They look at each other.
CUT TO:
58. EXT. LEO JOHNSON'S HOUSE - NIGHT

LEO JOHNSON pulls up in a beat-up pick-up truck with a covered pay-load, stops beside a
small shed outside his half-finished garage. He gets out, looks around, unlocks the shack and
starts to load full gas-cans into the back of the truck.
INTERCUT:
59. INT. JOHNSON'S HOUSE KITCHEN - NIGHT

A single, small lamp. Shelly, in robe and nightgown, moves into the kitchen, looks out the
window at Leo (off-screen). Takes the gun from the table, puts it in her pocket, lights a
cigarette.
CUT TO:

60. LEO

Secures the tarp back over the gas cans and moves towards the house when he's slugged from
behind in the kidneys. He grunts and goes down on one knee.

A SHADOWY ASSAILANT efficiently, silently and systematically dismantles him,
finally turning him and hitting him with three hard right hands to the face. Dazed and
bleeding, Leo never knew what hit him. The Assailant grabs Leo by the lapels and pulls him
close. The Assailant is Hank Jennings.

HANK
You were supposed to mind the store while I was gone,
not open your own franchise -

LEO
Hank-

A short punch, then...


HANK
Do as you're told, Leo. Next time you'll watch me
take your little chippie apart before I kill you.

(CONTINUED)

60. CONTINUED:

Hank Iets him go and disappears.

61. INT. JOHNSON KITCHEN - NIGHT
CUT TO:

Shelly, who hasn't heard a thing, finishes her cigarette. Suddenly, Leo bursts in the door
behind her, staggering to the sink. turns on the water, his face a bloody mess ...

LEO
Shelly, call a doctor -

SHELLY
Leo, what happened? You all right?

LEO
(lashing out)
Just call the damn doctor, do as you're told!

He backhands her, sends her sprawling. She lands hard. Takes the gun from her pocket.

LEO (CONTINUED)
What are you sitting around for? I said -
(sees the gun)
What the hell are you doin' with that?

SHELLY
(taking out the gun)
Don't touch me, Leo, don't come near me -

LEO
(laughing)
What are you gonna do, Shelly, shoot me?

SHELLY
You're not gonna hurt me again -

LEO
(bile seeping above the pain)
You stupid little slut, you don't even know how to use
one -
(he advances on her)
Besides, you haven't got the guts --

Shelly closes her eyes and fires. Leo yells, falls back, knocking the lamp off the table.
Darkness. Screaming. The front door slams open and shut, the screaming moves outside.

Shelly huddles in a comer, clutching the gun, terrified. We hear the pick-up truck start and
drive off. Shelly tries to catch her breath.
CUT TO:

62. INT. GREAT NORTHERN CORRIDOR - NIGHT

Dale Cooper rounds the comer, takes out his room key. He stops, listens to the sounds of the
still raucous Icelandic party going on downstairs. Cooper sadly shakes his head, starts to
unlock his door and realizes it's open. He draws his gun.
CUT TO:

63. INT. COOPER'S ROOM - NIGHT

The door stands open, light coming in from the corridor. Cooper enters a moment later, with
his weapon drawn. He slowly closes the door, moves in, keeping the gun trained on the bed.

COOPER
Reach over slowly and turn on the bedside lamp.

There's someone in the bed. The person turns on the lamp. Audrey. Naked under the sheets,
eyes red with tears.

AUDREY
Don't make me leave. Please don't make me leave.

Cooper slowly lowers his weapon.
