Subject: Madelyn and Donna From: Heidi.Aycock@samba.acs.unc.edu (BBS Account) Date: 1990-10-03, 13:14 Newsgroups: alt.tv.twin-peaks Diary Spoiler Coming Up . . . I hate to refer to the diary, since it's really a supplementary piece of evidence, but there's a lot of people who think Donna and Maddie have never met before. In the diary, it's clear that they have. Maddie even gave Donna and Laura their first cigarettes. I think you could infer this relationship even without reading the diary. I mean, Donna was Laura's best friend and Maddie seems like a cousin Laura would be close with since they look so much alike and Maddie has such a strong link emotionally with Laura. That explains why Maddie knows Donna's phone number so well, too (referring to that person who said Maddie must be Laura because she dialed Donna's number without looking at the phone). Also, in the diary, Donna's no angel. She's just less screwed up than Laura. --
