Twin Peaks s01e03 Episode Script

Zen, or the Skill to Catch a Killer

Previously We'll talk later.
Albert, if you come up to Lewis Fork, I can recommend a place for lunch.
- Leo called you? - He asked for the rest of the money.
She was supposed to hand it over today.
She checked out on us.
We're lucky we're in jail.
You know what's gonna go down with Leo when we get out.
No! No! No, no, no, not in my room.
In here, in here! - Jerry, back from Paris? - Ben, what a nightmare! Right there! No, right there.
What is with you guys? I've got a sandwich in there, I want all those bags open.
We're looking till we find it Hey, Audrey, Uncle Jerry's back.
- Sylvia - Benjamin! OK, OK Gone! Goodbye! Brother Ben, this is the best damn sandwich I ever ate.
It's a baguette with brie and butter.
I had four of these every day I was there.
You 've got to try this thing.
Here, go ahead, eat it.
Go ahead.
Go ahead! Oh, yeah.
This is incredible, Jer! You know what this reminds us of? You know who likes this? It reminds us of Ginny and Jenny down by the river.
- My God, you 're right! - Am I right? Am I right? Oh, no wonder! Jer, outside, outside.
Always a pleasure.
Jerry Leland's daughter was murdered, and the Norwegians left.
- Did they sign? - Deal's off.
We had those Vikings by the horns! What happened? We're not a hundred percent sure, they took their translator with them.
Did you say Leland's daughter was murdered? Yes.
I'm depressed.
I can fix that.
There's a new girl at One-Eyed Jacks, freshly scented from the perfume counter.
And you, brother Jer, have a 50-50 chance of being first in line.
I like those odds.
All work and no play make Ben and Jerry dull boys.
- That's right.
- Let's jump in the boat.
That's great huckleberry pie, Mrs Hayward.
Thank you, James.
Well Mrs Hayward and I are going to say good night, James.
- Good night, James.
- Good night.
- Good night, dear.
- Good night, Mom.
Don't worry about the dishes, I'll clean up.
Are you coming to church with us in the morning, Donna? Yes.
- Nine o'clock sharp.
- OK.
- Good night, James.
- Good night, sir.
Hi, sailor! Good evening, Mr Horne.
Ben, we're not gonna go in the casino first? Jer, I didn't come here to lose my shirt, I just came to take it off.
- Kim, the Horne brothers are here.
- I'll tell Blackie.
I'd like to order two drinks.
One double scotch on the rocks.
And my brother would like a double scotch on the rocks.
That's two double scotch on the rocks.
Next stop, rocket science.
Jerry - Blackie! - Benjamin.
"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? "Thou art more lovely and more temperate "Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May "And every fair from fair sometimes declines "By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd "But thy eternal summer shall not fade "Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest - "Nor shall death brag" - Where's the new girl? When you really want love, you 'll find it waiting for you.
Heads.
Come on.
We'll take care of you, Jerry.
Well Donna, I don't think that what we're feeling or doing is wrong.
Why not? Because it's the truth.
Because I think it would have turned out this way anyway.
You do? Yes.
I remember a time in school, in the hall.
We were suddenly alone, and we looked at each other.
I almost told you I loved you then.
It's true.
It is true, isn't it? Oh, James.
I guess because of Laura I couldn't say anything.
- I couldn't even let myself think it.
- Me, too.
Are we gonna be together, James? Are we? Are we, James? - Special Agent Dale Cooper.
- Hello, it's Hawk.
Deputy Hawk, how is Ronnette Pulaski? - Body and spirit are still far apart.
- What did you find out? Ronnette recently quit at the perfume counter of Horne's store.
Everything else is quiet, except there was a one-armed man snooping around intensive care.
- A one-armed man? - Left.
- Did you question him? - No.
I pursued, but he got away.
Maintain an around-the-clock watch on Ronnette.
We'll speak in the morning.
Got it? Supposed to leave it in this stupid football.
Is it in there? Not all of it.
Cash on delivery, Bobby.
He's got a gun.
- Hey, Leo.
- Hey.
Who's that? - Is someone with you? - Never mind.
Toss it over here, quarterback.
It's empty.
Weren't you supposed to leave something for me? This barely covers what we paid for.
Where's the rest? - Where's the rest of the money? - There's a - There's a problem.
- Problem? - Laura had it.
- You think you got problems? We can get it.
Wait until everything settles down.
You punks owe me ten grand.
Leo needs a new pair of shoes.
OK.
We won't take delivery on the drugs until you get the cash.
- Do I look like a bank? - I appreciate your position.
How could I anticipate this thing with Laura? Laura was a wild girl.
Tell me about it.
Maybe.
Someday.
Take your hand out of your pocket, Mike.
- What is your problem, Leo? - Problem? You want to know about problems? OK.
You 're on the road, driving back and forth, gone for days.
- You get back, and guess what? - What? You find out your old lady's been giving it away.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Stepping out in your own damn bedroom.
That's a problem.
I guess so.
I guess it is.
- Do you know who? - A man needs a clean house.
Sure.
So do you know who? - I'll take care of it.
- Sure.
And this other thing, we'll take care of it, don't worry.
We'll get the cash, and everything will be square.
- Go out for a pass.
- What? - Go out for a pass.
- OK, just - Run.
- Take it easy.
Run! Run! Damn it, I'm done, Bobby.
Let's get the hell out of here.
- Ed! - Sorry, I didn't see it.
You stepped on my drape runner! - It was in the middle of the floor.
- Think that's an accident? I laid those out there myself.
I was up all night working on that invention.
I'm going to have the world's first - I'm real sorry, Nadine.
- Ed, you make me sick! That's it! Exactly sixty feet, six inches.
It's perfect.
What do you think he's up to? It beats me.
Invitation to love.
Each day brings a new beginning, and every hour holds the promise of an invitation to love.
Right.
- Who is it? - The big, bad bobcat.
Are you crazy? What are you doing here? I just passed Leo out in North Bend.
- We've got at least twenty minutes.
- Where's your car? Parked in the woods.
Open Sesame! Somebody might see me out here, and that'd be worse.
Bobby, you cannot come by here like this.
We can't meet, for a while.
What the hell happened to you? Leo Johnson happened to me.
That bastard.
Come here.
Bobby! If he finds out about us, he's gonna kill you.
He'll kill us both.
If he ever does this to you again, I'll kill him.
I mean it.
Cup of coffee.
It's not the first time, it won't be the last, but I'm in that doghouse again.
What happened this time? I popped a grease gun, stepped on a drape runner, and all hell broke loose.
I ran into Nadine in the hardware store.
All she talked about is the drape runners.
She's got one big bee in her bonnet.
Bobby sure gave me a good one? - Where do you want these rocks? - There by the doughnuts, Deputy.
- Anyone for a warm-up? - Oh, yeah! - You bet! - Thanks, Lucy.
Damn good coffee! And hot! Would everyone please take a seat? By way of explaining what we're about to do, I am first gonna tell you a little bit about the country called Tibet.
An extremely spiritual country, the leader of Tibet is known as the Dalai Lama.
In 1950, communist China invaded Tibet.
While leaving the Dalai Lama in charge, they seized control of the country.
In 1959, after a Tibetan uprising against the Chinese, the Dalai Lama fled to India and has lived in exile ever since.
Following a dream three years ago, I have become moved by the plight of the Tibetans and filled with a desire to help them.
I awoke realising I had subconsciously gained knowledge of a deductive technique involving mind-body coordination operating hand in hand with the deepest level of intuition.
Sheriff, Deputy Hawk, if you will please assist me, I will now demonstrate.
On the day of her death Laura Palmer wrote the following in her diary, "Nervous about meeting 'J' tonight.
" Today we'll concentrate on the "J's".
Harry, when I give the word, would you read aloud each name I've written on the blackboard? Deputy Hawk, stand here and hold this bucket of rocks where I can get to them.
Would you please put on the kitchen mittens.
Deputy Andy, move down, stand by the bottle.
Lucy, take this piece of chalk.
Not too near, Andy! I'm getting excited.
If I hit the bottle after a particular name, make a check on the name.
Sheriff, when you say the name, state that person's relationship to Laura Palmer.
- Ready? - Ready.
James Hurley secret boyfriend.
James Hurley.
Josie Packard was instructed in English by Laura.
Josie Packard.
So there's no check next to either of these names? That's correct.
Please continue.
Dr Lawrence Jacoby Laura's psychiatrist.
Dr Lawrence Jacoby.
You did it! You hit it! Lucy, make a note that the bottle was struck, but did not break.
Very important.
Andy, put that bottle back exactly where it was! Johnny Horne.
Laura was his special education tutor.
Johnny Horne.
Norma Jennings helped Laura with the meals-on-wheels programme.
Norma Jennings.
Shelly Johnson waitress at diner, friend.
Shelly Johnson.
- Sorry, Andy.
- Sweetie? It didn't hurt.
It didn't hurt a bit.
Where there's no sense, there's no feeling, Andy.
Coop Tell me The idea for all this really came from a dream? Yes.
It did.
Jack with One Eye Maybe it's the letter 'i', but there's no 'i' in Jack.
I think it means he only had one eye.
Sounds like Nadine, Big Ed Hurley's wife.
No, there's a casino up north called One-Eyed Jacks, across the border in Canada.
We're gonna have to check that place out.
I'm going to erase this, because it's a place, not a person.
Maybe the person could be in the place.
- So should I erase it? - Yes.
Yes, a person could be in a place, or yes, I should erase it? Erase it, Lucy.
Next name, Harry.
Leo Johnson husband of Shelly, drives a truck, connection with Laura unknown.
Leo Johnson.
Little Audrey Horne just walked in.
Yeah, I saw her at church.
Wonder what she's doing down here.
- Hi, Audrey.
- Hi, Norma.
A cup of coffee, please.
Remind me to get those 60 watt bulbs.
Thanks.
I'm gonna go say hi.
Hi.
Hi, Donna.
So my parents said they saw you at church today.
I didn't see you.
I came by because of Laura.
What do you mean? I didn't think you liked her.
There were things about Laura I didn't like, but she did take care of my brother Johnny.
I loved her for that.
Do you like coffee? Yeah, with cream and sugar.
Agent Cooper loves coffee.
Audrey! But Agent Cooper likes his coffee black.
- Can I ask you something? - Sure.
Did Laura ever talk about my father? What do you mean? Nothing.
No, what do you mean? He used to sing to her.
I love this music.
Isn't it too dreamy? Hawk found this half a mile down the tracks from the crime site.
It's a nasty piece of work.
Tell Agent Cooper that Albert and his team are here.
- Albert? - A-l-b-e-r-t.
- Do we have to stand here all day? - No.
Albert Rosenfield.
R-o-s-e-n-f-i-e-l-d.
Sheriff, this is Lucy.
- Is Agent Cooper with you? - Yes, he is.
Are Albert and his team here, Lucy? - Yes, he is they are.
- We're on our way.
- Agent Cooper will be right with you.
- I can hear perfectly well, Curly.
Albert and his team are cream of the crop.
Albert's a forensics genius.
I wouldn't expect anything less.
But I got to warn you, Albert's lacking in some of the social niceties.
- Nobody's perfect.
- Isn't that the truth? What kind of a two-bit operation are they running here? Albert, this is Sheriff Truman.
I've seen some slipshod backwater burgs, but this place takes the cake.
What are you waiting for? Christmas? They're burying this girl tomorrow, and we've wasted half the day getting here.
I suggest you and your team should get started.
I'll have one of my men escort you over to the morgue.
Results from the local pathologist's report.
Welcome to Amateur Hour.
Looks like an all-nighter, boys.
Albert, got a minute? I hear that you 're real good at what you do.
- That's correct.
- That's good.
'Cause normally if a stranger walked into my station talking this crap, he'd be looking for his teeth two blocks up on Queer Street.
Good night, Ed! - Ed, is that you? - Yeah, honey, it's me.
- Ed! - Oh, my God.
Oh, Ed, I'm so happy, sweetheart, I have to thank you.
Why's that? You don't know what you 've done for me.
- No, I don't.
- Oh, Ed, you big lug! When you tracked that grease into the house today, you spilled some on my cotton balls.
But instead of tossing them out, I put the greased ones on the runners.
And Ed just listen to this.
Completely silent.
- How about that? - Oh, Ed We're gonna be so rich! Everything smells like fish around here.
Well, you could wash your socks separately.
What did that FBI man want up here today? Very nice fellow.
Asked a few questions.
About what? Well, he talked to Josie mostly.
I had a problem with a fish.
Took a liking to my percolator.
What did he want to talk to Josie about? Why don't you ask her? Here's the key, the ledger's inside.
- Thank you.
- You betcha.
Didn't he ask for me? Yeah, but we said you were on a world tour he should contact your press agent.
Get your boots off my bed and go to your room! I didn't want to get mink oil on my bedspread.
You got mink oil in your head.
Two books.
Leland - Leland, stop it! - We have to dance, Sarah.
We have to dance for Laura.
- Leland, stop it! Give it to me.
- We have to dance! Leland! Leland, give it to me! What is going on? Leland! What is going on in this house? Oh, God! Laura, Laura! Laura! "Through the darkness of future past, "the magician longs to see, "one chance out between two worlds "fire, walk with me.
" We lived among the people.
I think you say, convenience store.
We lived above it.
I mean it like it is, like it sounds.
I, too, have been touched by the devilish one.
Tattoo on the left shoulder.
Oh, but when I saw the face of God, I was changed.
I took the entire arm off.
My name is Mike.
His name is Bob.
Mike? Mike, can you hear me? "Catch you with my Death Bag.
" You may think I've gone insane.
But I promise I will kill again! But it it is Laura Palmer.
Are you Laura Palmer? Harry, it's Cooper.
Meet me for breakfast, I know who killed Laura Palmer.
No, it can wait till morning.
