It looks as though we're getting the shaft all across the country, with no
regular preempting messages.  I'll have to go back and look at the last tape,
but I could swear I heard "Next week" and not "Three weeks hence". . .

Damn this is annoying. . .

I think Rizzo was G.W. Bailey, who's recently been in the Police Academy

There's no information in this post that hasn't been in previous ones.
In fact, I deleted a few questions that no longer seem like such
burning issues (time will tell if that was a mistake).  However, since
someone's brought up "How big is Twin Peaks?" again, it seemed time

TWIN PEAKS 
FREQUENTLY ANSWERED QUESTIONS
Last revision: 12/28/90

(Many of these concern what various people said.  Many thanks to Bart
J. Geraci, the man with the closed caption decoder.)

WARNING: This article may contain references to any episode up to and
including the most recent one shown in the U.S.  


1. What's this "secret diary" that everybody keeps referring to?
-- _The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer_ was written by Jennifer Lynch
(David's daughter), and is published in the U.S by Pocket
Books, and in the U.K. Penguin Books.  It's supposed to be the
text of the diary that was discovered in the second season of
the show.  

2. a) What language was the little boy with the creamed corn speaking?
-- French
   b) What did he say?
-- J'ai une ame solitaire: I have a solitary soul.  (This is according
to the closed captions, so we don't want to know what your
friend who had three years of French thought it was.)
   c) Didn't he look an awful lot like David Lynch?
-- Yes, that's because he's Austin Jack Lynch, David Lynch's son.
   (For handy reference, look at Gordon Cole (Cooper's boss): he's played
   by David Lynch.)

3. What was that ditty Leland was singing, and what does it mean?
-- The full lyrics of the song are:

Mairzy doats and dozy doats
and little lambzy divy.
A kiddly divy, too, wooden shoe?

Now if the words sounds queer,
and funny to your ear,
a little bit jumbled and jivy,
Sing:

Mares eat oats and does eats oats
and little lambs eat ivy.
A kid'll eat ivy, too, wouldn't you?

   If necessary, go look up "mare," "doe" and "kid" in the dictionary.

4. Wasn't the Giant also on Star Trek: The Next Generation?
-- Yes, he is Carel Struycken, who played Mr. Homm.  No, he did not
play Lurch on the Adams Family (although it has been reported
that he will play Lurch in an upcoming AF movie).

5. Who was standing outside the window while Josie was seducing Harry?
-- The majority of posters believe it was the Mysterious Asian
Gentleman, also known as "Jonathan", Josie's "cousin" from
Hong Kong.  Those who have suggested other people are pushing it.

6. What were the three predictions that the giant made to Cooper?
-- a man in a smiling bag
   the owls are not what they seem
   without chemicals, he points

   The giant also said something about "Leo locked in a hungry horse,"
and that there was a clue at Leo's house.  However, these were
not the "predictions" which will be fulfilled before Cooper
gets his ring back.  The former refers to the fact that Leo
was in jail in Hungry Horse, Montana when Theresa Banks was
killed, and the latter refers to the Circle Brand boots that
were found with the cocaine at Leo's house.

7. Has anybody mentioned the possible connection between:
   * BOB and J. R. "Bob" Dobbs of the Church of the Subgenius?
   * All the donuts they eat on Twin Peaks, and JFK's "Ich bin ein
Berliner" speech?  What he literally said was "I am a jelly
donut." 
   * Agent Dale Cooper and D.B. Cooper, the guy who hijacked a plane
and then parachuted over Washington State with a whole bunch
of money and was never found?  
   * Ben and Jerry Horne and Ben and Jerry's brand ice cream (in one
scene the brothers Horne are even shown eating ice cream)?
   * Sarah's vision of a white horse and Mr. Ed?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  Laura' pony, Troy?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  Death, which "rides a pale
 horse"?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  heroin, also known as "white
 horse" (maybe Leland/BOB shot
 her up with heroin)?
-- Yes for all of the above.

8. What was the poem that "Mike" recited in Cooper's dream, and later
at the police station?
-- "Through the darkness of future past
    the magician longs to see
    one chants out between two worlds
    'Fire walk with me.'"

   (There has been much debate over whether the second-to-last line is
"one chants out" or "one chance out".  The closed captions
indicate "chants".)  

9. How were the funny voices in the dream sequence done?  
-- Before shooting the scene, the actors were recorded reading their
lines.  The recording was then played to them backwards, and
they memorized how to imitate it.  Each shot in the scene was
acted in reverse order, with the actors saying their
"backwards" lines.  The film was then reversed so that the
actions came out in the right order, and the words came out
double-reversed.  Unfortunately, the words weren't very
intelligible, so subtitles were added.

10. What year is the show set in?
-- References in the first season placed it in 1989.  However, _The
Secret Diary of Laura Palmer_ places the action in 1990.
Sources on the production team (i.e., Scott Frost) indicate
that it's been sort of miraculously moved up to 1990.
Apparently, the producers and directors have trouble keeping
track of what day it's supposed to be in Twin Peaks, never
mind what year.

11. Maddy notices a burning smell just before she's attacked by
Leland/BOB.  Didn't Jacoby say he smelled burned oil in the
hospital when Jacques was killed?  Does this mean that Leland
was BOB when he killed Jacques?
-- No.  Later, under hypnosis, Jacoby corrected himself and said that
he smelled the burned smell just before he was attacked at the
gazebo, but not at the hospital.  However, this does leave
open the possibility that Jacoby was attacked by BOB.

12. a) Where is Twin Peaks supposed to be? 
-- It's in the State of Washington, but where exactly is not clear.
In Cooper's initial monolog to Diane as he's driving into
town, he states that it's five miles south of the Canadian
border and twelve miles west of the state line.  That would
seem to place it in the northeast corner of the state.
However the surrounding geography is like that of the Cascade
Mountains in western WA.  References to cities such as Seattle
and Tacoma, but not Spokane, also seem to place it in western
WA.  The show's creators seem to have smooshed the state so
that it all fits west of the Cascades.  

Many of the outdoor shots were filmed in Squanalomie, WA,
which is in the Cascades, not too far from Seattle.  The
waterfall is there; the Great Northern Hotel is really the
Salish Lodge; and the RR Diner is really the Mar-T Diner,
which really does have heavenly cherry pies.

    b) How big a town is Twin Peaks?
-- Again, that's not exactly clear.  The population sign that's shown
at station breaks and on the Twin Peaks sound track indicates
51,201.  However cues in the show seem to indicate that it's
much much smaller than that.  For instance, it doesn't have a
resident circuit court judge, which any town of 51K+ in the
U.S. would; it has a sheriff's department but no police
department.  On the other hand, it does have its own hospital,
a fancy department store, and a large hotel.  It seems the
creators haven't worried too much about being consistent on
this point.

13. Has anybody noticed that Julee Cruise's "Floating Into The Night"
album gives special thanks to, among other people, Bob (no
last name)? 
-- Yes.

14. Is the first season two-hour pilot considered the first episode,
or is the first one-hour show the first episode?  Do the
episodes have names?  What the best way of referring to
episodes?
-- The episodes are not named.  Whether it's the best way or not,
Lynch/Frost number the episodes with four-digit numbers, where
the first digit is the season number, and the others are the
order within that season.  This system was apparently adopted
after the pilot was produced, so the pilot is 1000, the first
one-hour episode is 1001, and so on.  However for the second
season, the two-hour season premiere is 2001. 

15. Can a person's hair really turn white "over night" like Leland's
did between the first and second seasons?  
--Generally, only folklore supports this ("it happened to a friend of
a friend of mine").  Since hair above the scalp is dead
matter, it can't change color without dyes or bleaches.  It's
possible that a person with mixed gray and dark hair could
lose all their older, darker hair over a short period of time
(a few days or weeks) due to a physical or psychological
trauma, which would leave them with just gray hair.  Or a
dark-haired person might lose all their dark hairs and grow in
gray ones over a similar span of time, but "over night" seems
physically implausible.

With a couple weeks off from Twin Peaks, I got bored & started playing
alphabet games.  Here's a few (maybe) interesting anagrams, written in the
letters of a name from the show.  Hint: there's been some controversy as
to the correct spelling of the character's name.

Doesn't anyone know?  I'm sure the series has revealed this to us by now.  I
never found out.  I missed alot of episodes.  Once again, may I ask:

[Long and pedantic description of US TV scheduling begins...]

These days, each season of US TV is divided into three segments (also
confusingly called "seasons"). The "First Season" starts in the Fall,
and if a show that starts then runs the full year, it generally ends up
with 20-25 episodes for that year. The "Second Season" starts after the
Christmas/New Year holidays, and offers replacements for those shows
from the Fall season that flopped. Shows that start at this point and
run until the end of the scheduling year end up with about 13 episodes
for the year. The "Third Season" starts around April, and is generally
considered as a "tryout" for shows that the networks aren't sure about.
The usual length for the spring tryout shows is six episodes.

TWIN PEAKS is such a show, and so the first season of TP only run for
nine hours worth. When it was renewed for the Fall, it was at first given
a run of 13 more episodes, with the network to decide before those 13
had finished production whether or not to extend the show for the full
year. They have done this, so the show should run a full 22 episodes
for its second year.

Until I see it spelled "Windom" in the credits, I'll continue to use
"Wyndham". TV Guide is not, in my opinion, an authoritative source for
this sort of thing.

The point is that almost everything that happens in Twin Peaks has some 
explanation in TP's ... uhh ... expanded reality. We follow it and debate 
it here to determine just what is going on, and how all the elements fit 
in. Even such a minor point as the MFAP's comment about the gum finally 
fit in.

Thus, such glitches as the party music, and, yes, James's backing band 
are cause for consideration. Few things happen on the show because "it's 
TV".

The beauty of TP is that while it's weird, it tends not to be >random<. 
There's a big difference.

This was written a few years before TP started yet it's _very_
doubtful that David Lynch ever heard this song. Still, it does seem
like a nice theme song for Laura/Leland/BOB.


Off From Out From Under Me                           Happy Rhodes
 

I knew a man who was very odd/
He'd always thought that someone was following him/
He'd talk of entities that didn't exist/
Or so I thought.

His paranoia intrigued me so/
I was sure he'd escaped from the looney bin/
Every day became clearer, he was right!

Goodbye my lunatic, I hope you're faring well/
I'm trying to keep them all from out from under you.
You were right little madman, they're hammering at my head/
I'm trying to keep them all from out from under me/

This man had knowledge of right & wrong/
He could separate light from dark/
He showed me the horrors of infesting thoughts with emotion.

They can't hurt the madman, now they're hammering at my head/
I must die to get them all from out from under me

Amen to that! I've hosted 3 first season marathons and early this morning
finished my first second season marathon. I'd seen ALL these episodes
when they first aired but watching them together in one day is an
amazing experience. It really IS like seeing a very long Major Motion
Picture. A friend who'd seen the entire first season but none of the
second was over and he only made it through 2004 before he had to leave.
I didn't feel like stopping so I watched the next 6 episodes by myself.
Just incredible! Very time-comsuming but fascinating. It made me appreciate
the 2nd season even more than I already did (though it still isn't as good
as the 1st) and I noticed things that make more sense to me now. Complaints
that Lynch/Frost introduce things then forget about them don't hold up
when viewing the episodes in one sitting. I wondered about the chess game
with WE and why we'd never seen the game started. But....ah ha....I'd 
forgotten about the chess move that Cooper received in a note a few weeks
earlier. It may take weeks in real time to "explain" things, but they
eventually get taken care of. I have no doubts that all of my questions
will get answered at some point in time. I just have to be patient.

I recently rented _Dead Poet's Society_ and Lara Flynn Boyle appears in the
credits.  As the credits role, it says:  Featuring LFB (and some other
person) and then proceeds to list the cast with the names of each character.
It does not, however, say who LFB plays.  Does anyone know?

After wrangling forever over whether it's Wyndham or Windom, wouldn't we
have a cow if it ended up being Windham (as in Hill)...

(I think it's Windom -- TV GUIDE would be hard pressed to make something
like that up.  Dave Mack can eat his heart out <just kidding Dave>)

According to her interview in _Rolling Stone_ a few months ago, she was cut
from the movie entirely.  The cutting-room floor and all that...  They were
nice enough to leave her in the credits, though. :-)

The basic root definition of "obsession" is 'sitting at the
door'.
I believe that an obsession is created when you are drawn to
the threshold of an experience but for some reason do not
enter fully into it.  I wonder what form Cooper's obsession will
take?
 
a.h.

Hope you forgive me for bringing the following dismal
thoughts into this recreational newsgroup, but...
 
I saw a documentary recently about the genocide of the
Gypsies in Europe under the Nazis.
Since I had 'the evil that men do' on my mind I saw
parallels between what I was learning there and Twin Peaks.
"Holocaust" is a curious word with the long history
of its own. It originally refered to a burnt sacrifice. 
It means wholesale sacrifice or destruction, especially
by fire.
 
When people today try to imagine evil incarnate they often
nominate Hitler. The greatest crime we have see in recent
years was the death camps in Europe during the second world war.
(Although in fact genocide is a crime dating back to
at least BC times as documented in the Old Testament
and may, as the fossil record seems to indicate, go back much
further into our history.)
 
Survivors of the death camps describe how they were attacked and
killed for sport.  They describe trenchs soaked with fuel oil into
which living humans were pushed. One woman recalled how her gypsy
friends were taken away and killed. She said it was as though
her favourite daughter had been murdered.
 
The smell of burning oil, the death of the favourite child, evil
hiding within a community, multiple deaths - parallels to Twin Peaks?

There are gifs galore available at gfreebie.engin.umich.edu (141.212.68.23)

from the 11-10-90 show [ CD /pub/twin-peaks/11-10-90 ], which included

The reason for the poor quality is obviously that they were captured with

Here, to my knowledge, is every film Jack Nance has appeared in:

"Eraserhead" (1977)
"Dune" (1984)
"Barfly" (1985)
either "Ghoulies" or "Ghoulies II" -- have not seen these.
"Blue Velvet" (1986)
"Wild at Heart" (1990)
"The Ht Spot" (1990)

It seems to me that I am missing a film here. Can anybody help? And has
anybody had the stomach to sit through either "Ghoulies" film to be able
to say how large of a role Mr. Nance had? A friend recently mentioned that
he also had a small role in "The Blob" (the updated version). Any truth
to this?

Nancemania continues.

He also supposedly appeared onstage, in the mid-60's with Catherine "the

If I tell you those things, they will not be true.  Here in the frozen
Midwest, we have the same listing.  Bumnost.  That will mean almost a whole
month of TP deprivation.  They had better run a double-header when they bring
it back, or else....

Folks,

If anyone has a copy of the article about the marriage
proposal in Twin Peaks style, would you please email a

seem to have lost it, and the file's not in sight either.

Things have been hectic lately for both Scott & me, but
we finally got on the phone a couple days ago.  He's currently
not in close touch with the show because he's writing a book,
and has a February 1 deadline.  In December he spent 5 days
in Philadelphia doing research for the book.

The book's provisional title is something like "Cooper:  My Life,
My Tapes", and it's due to be published in March or April.


One reason things have been hectic for Scott & me is that
we've both moved.  My wife has named our new house "Twin Peaks"
to honor a couple architectural features, but it also lies
between Martel Creek and Briggs Ranch.  On a modest drive uphill
yesterday we found something that could pass as the RR Diner,
but it was actually the R & R Cafe and Saloon.  Scott claims
all these Peakish names are pure coincidence.

BTW, my grandmother, Laura, was the daughter of a Norwegian.  My
grandfather, Earl, was of English descent but at least wasn't
named Wyndham.  Still, maybe it wouldn't hurt to check the
family tree for clues to future mysteries on Peaks.

the correct parsing for lealand's song (at least the first verse)
is as follows:

     Mares eat oats and does eat oats
     and little lambs eat ivy
     a kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?

the words are sung rapidly so that they merge together becoming

     Marezy doats an' dozey doats
     and little lamzy divy.
     a kiddlee divy too, wouldn't you?

The song is originally from Danny Kaye, i believe. The man was a 
master at singing songs so quickly that they become incomprehensible.

Quakers schools are all (with one or two exceptions) 'pretty secular 
in curriculum and eclectic in student backgrounds.'  And it is true at
most that most of the students are not Quakers.  However secular they
may have become, these schools still retain some spiritual basis.  And
Quakerism nowadays is not necessarily as Christian-based as its roots.

Where has it been said that Windham (my preferred spelling) is a master
of disguise?  I agree with the previous poster from BBN (hey, can I have a
job?) that it's only been hashed around on alt.tv.t-p.

But it follows that if we've been calling Windham a master-of-disguise,
there's gotta be some reason to it, 'cause we often hit pretty close to the
mark.

OK, there's some interesting stuff going on in the town-- first of all,
there already _was_ a rather well disguised gentleman ("That's no gentleman,
that's my wife!" cries Pete in the background) in town, who is later revealed
to have had an angelic creature (or perhaps symbolistically her mind; I don't
know how much to read into what she said) watching over her.  Although it
doesn't seem that Windham would have a motive to use Catherine, this _is_ Twin
Peaks, which leads us to an understanding: it don't gotta make sense.

More deception: The R&R Diner's owner's mom is the "great food critic",
not in disguise but certainly deceptive in method.

Andrew Packard is alive.  Hmm.  While I certainly doubt it's Windham,
it does lead to massive coverup and scammity, so I'd point towards a "master of
disguise"-- or "master of hiding" in this case.

There is a great deal of the "things are not what they seem" madrid
going on in Twin Peaks; at any given moment, you can't be sure if a person is
hiding something, such as a takeover by a hostile alien or spiritual being-- my
point?  Yeah, yeah, many strange worlds I've been since I've gotten to the
point of this message (I'm sorry for the many dropped references here, I don't
even mean to do them anymore, but there's nothing left to do about it but :-)
:-) :-), which boils down to: there's a lot of Januslike-- two faced-- activity
here, and so many of the plots interwoven so well that it seems to follow that
Windham would be in disguise.

For the coup-de-grace (I speak French; I was a solitary soul earlier in
life and so studied diligently the other languages), two points: Cooper would
recognize Windham if Windham *wasn't* in disguise, and Windham *has* a
brilliant criminal mind, so I don't see any reason why he wouldn't have an
extraordinary ability to hide himself among the many faces-- doublefaces-- of
Twin Peaks (population 52k--).


(One thing I'd like to ask.  I used the word madrid in a wholly inappropriate
spot, and I certainly don't know why; the word simply came to finger as I
composed this message.  Fiona-- care to psychoanalyze?)

Actually, it depends on where you are.  To utterly generalize, the
further west you go in the US, the more "Christ-centered" the Quakers
are.  And Kenya and other African countries have lots of "Evangelical"
Quakers (who are NOT pacifist).  But the Quaker influence on
Germantown Friends School is of the East Coast variety.

But that's a thread for another group.

A friend of mine contends that the majority of Twin Peaks fans *must*
be Mac users. It "stands to reason," he claims, "given the nature of
the program."  He supports his contention by citing the Mac Plus in
Sheriff Truman's office and the Mac laptop used during Cooper's meeting
with FBI Internal Affairs.

less would be malpractice, David.  :-)

--Fiona O.

The holidays for most Twin Peaks finatics was pretty much devoid
of the show (being it was pre-empted for the past 3 weeks)...but
not for me.

It all started when I saw a Twin Peaks tee shirt in an out of the
way store in Greenwich Village, NYC.  I thought it would be a perfect
gift for my sister, who is a self-admitted Twin Peaks addict.  

Later, while walking thru B Dalton Books, not only do I see the 
Secret Diary of Laura Palmer, but also this thin book which is
supposedly an Introduction to Twin Peak for first timers.  It was
then that the whole idea of a Twin Peaks Christmas package hit me.

The final gift consisted of 6 gifts, each with a Twin Peaks quote
attached to it:

  1) "Damn Good Coffee...and Hot" - this was the T-shirt which
      had a cup of coffee on it with the saying "R & R Diner...
      for a good cup of Joe"  (Incidently, there's a whole LINE
      of Twin Peaks T-Shirts ranging from a Twin Peaks Sherriffs
      Department Shirt to shirts having pictures of Laura or the
      Log Lady.)

  2) "Looking for Secrets?" - This was the diary.  What else would
      it be?

  3) "The Things I tell you will not be wrong" - This was the Intro
      to TP book.  This book inciduently, is in no way associated
      with Lynch/Frost.  Just some fan got enough motivation to 
      put together a guide of the first season. (Probably tired 
      of people asking what Twin Peaks was all about!)

  4) "J'ai un homme solitaire" - A can of creamed corn.  Do you see
      creamed corn on this plate?

  5) "New Shoes" - a kazoo, Leo spit not included.

  6) "She's Dead...wrapped in plastic" - i loved this one.  What I did
      was to buy a Barbie doll, open it up, wrap it in plastic, and
      cross out Barbie on the box and write in "Laura".


I feel like I did a service to my poor sister.  For if it wasn't 
for this package, she would be in a most serious state of Peaks
withdrawl.

In my last posting, I wrote about a Twin Peaks Christmas package 
that I put together for my sister.  6 gifts, each with a Twin Peaks
quote attached to it.

Well, my birthday is not too far away from Christmas...and it seems
that my sister and brother and his wife had the same idea.  (You know, 
as a family, as far as Twin Peaks goes, we really are out of control).  
So I go to my sister's house one day and there's this big box waiting 
for me with the words "It is happenning again".  When I open it I find a 
group of gifts, each with a quote attached to it:

  1) "My log saw something" - Of course, wrapped in plastic, my
      own personal log.

  2) "The owls are not what they seem" - A computer printout of 
      seemingly lots of giberish.  Upon close inspection, one 
      can find the words COOPER COOPER COOPER.  (I wonder how
      long it took my brother to type in all that gibberish)

  3) "Leo needs a new pair of shoes" - GI Joe boots.  Complete with
      removable heel containing a makeshift cassette tape.

  4) "Yes Andy, it's what we call a three hanky crime"  - Three
      hankies.

  5) "There's a fish...in the perculator" - A bathtub toy of a green 
      fish.

  6) "...FIRE WALK WITH ME..." - A book of matches.  (Wanna play with
      fire?)

  7) "When the Tacoma Sperm bank...besides I like whales" - Another
      bathtub toy...this time a yellow whale.

  8) "Diane..." - a microcassette.

  9) "mares eats oats...etc" - A can of white hair coloring that had
      appropriately written on it INSTANT LELAND IN A CAN.

 10) "You're going back to Missula, MONTANA" - Yet another doll, this
      time a brunette...in a golf bag.

Well, as I said before, my family is pretty out of control.  
(Probably no more out of control than the ones who write on this
newsgroup). Anyway, it was hysterical.  They better show an episode 
soon, or else, God know what else we may do.

The Macs are computers of convenience -- Apple supplied
the Twin Peaks folks with a whole mess of them at (I believe)
no charge.

Apple sometimes does some odd things to support the arts.  One
case I saw was supplying equipment for some current work in
composing and performing ... um, guess it should be called
something like modern experimental electronic music.  This
and Alan Kay (sp?) turned up at a more-or-less private concert
that I went to a couple years ago.

The following is from Michael Ventura's column, Letters at 3 a.m.  He
is the resident intellectual/artist type at the local liberal weekly.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Six months ago I wrote that, as much as I loved _Twin Peaks_, David Lynch
would never deal with consequences, so the solution of "who killed Laura
Palmer?" was bound to be trivial.  Watch now while I eat those words.
The problem of delivering on the Laura Palmer mystery made David Lynch
and Mark Frost dig down into their creation, and what they found there
is the most startling striptease of American "normality" ever
presented on television.  The scene in the nightclub while Maddie is
being killed by Leland Palmer is a most delicate and intricate
presentation of what "collective psyche" means and how it can feel.
And when the show says, in effect, that an affluent father who rapes
and kills his daughter is innocent, possessed of a free-floating evil
that took advantage of his very emptiness to enter him -- that's a
frightful and accurate diagnosis of America.  But _Twin Peaks_ goes
even further by saying it's not possible to deduce the dilemma with
Western tools.  _Twin Peaks_ invokes dreams, magic, other worlds,
other senses, in a clear and uncompromised call to go beyond what most
Western intellectuals define as "thought".

Who can watch something like _The Simpsons_ after that?  _The
Simpsons_ can't go beyond the paradigms of the society it mocks.
Worse, its danger is that it _does_ portray accurately the surfaces
of kids' feelings (but only the surfaces), and so tempts them to
identify with it.  Many will get stuck where the show is stuck: in a
rebellion that isn't rebellion at all, just a clever way to be
powerless and _like_ it.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
BTW I pretty much disagree.  "When the show says, in effect, that an
affluent father who rapes and kills his daughter is innocent,
possessed of a free-floating evil that took advantage of his very
emptiness to enter him -- " that's what I call a trivial solution.
After laying open so much human nature and human drama, to lay the
ultimate blame on something non-human seems to me a total cop-out.

"Cotton _balls_!  By God those things will be quiet now!"

In Norway/Sweden we have just started on the second part of Twin Peaks.
(Audrey is still at One Eyed Jack's).

To prevent me from becoming a slave of the TV, could someone post a
resume on "What did really happen in Twin Peaks"? Who killed who and
why? Who's pregnant with who? How is life in Hong Kong? Who is missing
and why? A presentation of the spirits and their favourite persons.
Who is dating who while dating who at the same time? Strange behaviours
by whom? Other crimes?   ...and so on.... 

And ecspecially I'm interested in the Leland-Bob conjunction and how
that killing of Laura did happen. Why?

Please do the posting to this group, otherwise I will end up with
tousands of resumes in my mailbox.

BTW, the Norwegians are not like those strange people described in the
first episode.

1983  ("6 years ago" - Truman to Cooper)
   -- Andrew Packard brings Josie over from Hong Kong to be his wife

August 1987 (approx)
   -- Andrew Packard dies, supposedly in a boating accident. Truman first tells
      Cooper Packard died "last year" which would've been 1988 but later tells
      him it happened "a year and a half ago."
   -- Hank Jennings "accidently" kills an unnamed vagrant, is convicted of
      vehicular manslaughter and sent to jail. (He's said to've spent 18
      months in jail.)

06 Feb (Monday) (date at top of page in diary)
   -- "Day One" (entry in Laura's diary). During Cooper's questioning of James,
      he asked what happened on 2/5 and James flashed back on the time when
      Laura gave him the locket. Cooper said to Diane he had flipped back 18
      days to "Day One." That could be 18 days from 2/23 (last entry in the
      diary), yielding the 5th, or from 2/24 (the day he was looking at it),
      yielding the 6th.

12 Feb (Sunday)
   -- The picnic (James told Cooper it was "two Sundays ago")

23 Feb (Thursday)

   05:00 pm (Josie to Cooper and Truman)
   -- Laura arrives at Josie's for her English lessons. Josie says Laura left
      an hour later.

   Sometime after dinner
   -- Last entry in Laura's diary: "Nervous about meeting J. tonight."

      darkness in between:
Cooper in a chair, the dwarf
Laura's mother running downstairs [from episode 1000]
Bob at foot of Laura's bed
A bloody cloth [in the railroad car?]
Laura dead
Bob crouched at Laura's bed  [Sarah's vision]
      The One-Armed Man:
Through the darkness of future past,
The magician longs to see
One..chants...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, as it sounds.  I too
have been touched by the devilish one; tattoo on the left shoulder.
Ah, 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.
      Bob, crouched in some room full of clutter (tantalizingly
      unrecognizable metal objects) like an attic or basement.  He looks
      around and says:
Mike?  Mike?  Can you hear me?  [he turns to look at the camera]
Catch you with my death bag!
You may think I've gone insane, but I promise I *will* kill again!
      A small mound of dirt with a gold necklace on it, surrounded by a
      ring of candles. A puff of wind; the candles blow out.
      An older Agent Cooper (in his 50s or so) is sitting in a red-carpeted, 
      red-curtained lounge.  Laura Palmer is sitting a few chairs away from
      him, dressed in a slinky black dress and looking very elegant.  There 
      is a strange scraping noise - a distorted silhouette of a person,
      backlit against a doorway -- it seems to be shuddering somehow -- the 
      scraping noise gets faster.  Suddenly the distorted silhouette turns
      around.  It's The Little Man From Another Place.  The scraping sound
      was him rubbing his palms together.  He's got a cheerful, wide smile,
      and he says (in twisted, reversed backwards English)
Let's rock!
      He sits in one of the chairs.  There is a pause.  A black shadow drifts
      slowly over the red curtains, over their heads. Laura puts one finger
      next to her nose, looking significantly at Cooper.  Then:

      LMFAP: [to Cooper]  I've got good news.  That gum you like is going to 
come back in style.  [noticing Cooper staring at Laura]  She's my
cousin.  But, doesn't she look almost exactly like Laura Palmer?
      Cooper: [to LMFAP]  But she is Laura Palmer.
[to Laura]  Are you Laura Palmer?
      Laura: [arching her back weirdly]  I feel like I know her,
 but sometimes my arms bend back.
      LMFAP: She's filled with secrets.  Where we're from, the birds sing a 
pretty song, and there's always music in the air.
      Slow jazz music begins to play.  The Little Man From Another Place
      stands and starts a jerky dance.  Laura stands, crosses to Cooper,
      kisses him, and whispers something in his ear. 
      -- Cooper jerks awake, with his special Cooper Cowlick pointing straight
 up.  He calls Harry and says he knows who killed Laura Palmer -- 
 but it can wait till morning.

   -- Fight at the morgue: Ben and Doc Hayward won't let Albert continue with
      his autopsy.
      Albert: Mr. Horne, I recognize that your position in this fair
community necessitates venality, insincerity, and a certain irritating
manner of expressing yourself.  Stupidity, however, is not a necessarily
inherent trait.  Therefore, please listen closely--You can have a
funeral any old time.  You dig a hole, you plant a coffin.  I, however,
cannot perform these tests next year, next month, next week or even
tomorrow--I must perform them now.  <drill noise--VEEP VEEP!>

      C: "Where do you come from?"

   Day
   -- Sarah asks Maddy if she misses Beth (her mom). Maddy describes her dream,
      (the rug) Leland sports a new 'do, singing Mairzy Doats:
Mairzy doats and dozy doats
and little lambzy divy.
A kiddly divy, too, wooden shoe?

Now if the words sounds queer,
and funny to your ear,
a little bit jumbled and jivy,
Sing:

Mares eat oats and does eats oats
and little lambs eat ivy.
A kid'll eat ivy, too, wouldn't you?
      Maddy sees something in the rug.
   -- Ben and Jerry talk. Ben wants to know about Catherine and Leo's status.
      Leland arrives, singing Mairzy Doats. The brothers dance.
   -- Cooper determines what happened at Leo's.
      C: Sherrif, get your mind off Shelley - for a moment.
      Hawk finds a tarp smelling of gasoline. Albert and team arrive. Andy
      steps on a board and walks like a chicken, underneath are a pair of
      Circle Brand boots and cocaine.
      A: And it's another great moment in law enforcement history.
   -- Maddy meets with Donna at the RR and gives her Laura's shades that she
      wanted and breaks her own. They agree to "keep it quiet."
      D: Maybe the sun won't go up tommorow if you wash your hair. Think
 like that and you'll go crazy.
      Norma gives Donna a letter that got to the RR "yesterday:" Look into
      the Meals on Wheels. The log lady spits out her gum.
   -- Albert examines Cooper: "You were shot by a right handed person 5 foot
      6 to 5 foot 10 inches tall at a distance of less than 3 feet."

   -- Truman questions James. Cooper demands and gets the locket on a thong

 Sometimes, you just get lucky.
   -- Donna arrives at the station in Laura's shades and smoking and meets
      James in his cell.
      J: When did you start smoking?

      D: When I started smoking.
   -- Cooper has Andy and Lucy look through the back issues of the last three
      years of Fleshworld for Theresa Banks.

      a company that preys on human weaknesses.
   -- Hayward examines Jacoby. Cooper and Truman arrive. Cooper confronts
      Jacoby with the locket on a thong: I don't want any baloney, magic
      tricks or psychological mumbo jumbo.
      Jacoby said the night after Laura died, he followed Leo, lost him,
      saw and followed James and Donna and dug up the locket.
      J: Laura was, was in fact, no she was living a double life. Two people.
 Yeah, but then, then when I saw her the last time, she
 I dunno, she seemed to've reached a kind of peace herself. Now I
 believe that what she in fact, she had arrived at was the decision
 to end her life.
      T: Are you saying Laura wanted to die?
      C: Laura Palmer did not commit suicide.
      J: No, but maybe she allowed herself to be killed.

      Truman, to see this kind of investigative genius at work is just a
      real treat for me.
      They meet Ed in the hall.
      Ed: I never believed in fate, Agent Cooper. Always felt, you make your
  own way, you take care of your own, you pick up after yourself.
      Albert: Farmer's Almanac?
      Cooper: Albert, I would like to speak to Ed.
      Truman: Albert, I'll buy you a cup of coffee.
      Ed tells his tale of how he was with Norma but married Nadine and
      shot her eye out accidently on their homeymoon. James drops by. Cooper
      sees the smiling bag. Albert goes to check in at the Great Northern.
   -- Pete is disgusted by the hospital food
   -- Norma visits Shelley in her room, then sees Ed caring over Nadine
   -- Bobby runs into his father at the RR:
      MB: "Bobby, may I share something with you?"
      BB: "Okay."
      MB: "A vision I had in my sleep last night, as distinguished from a
dream, which is mere sorting and cataloguing of the day's events by
the subconscious. This was a vision, fresh and clear as a mountain
stream, the mind revealing itself to itself. In my vision, I was on the
veranda of a vast estate, a palazzo of some fantastic proportion.
There seemed to emanate from it a light from within, this gleaming,
radiant marble.  I'd known this place. I had in fact been
born and raised there.  This was my first return. A reunion with the
deepest well-springs of my being.  Wandering about, I noticed happily
that the house had been immaculately maintained. There'd been added
a number of additional rooms, but in a way that blended so seamlessly
with the original construction, one would never detect any difference.
Returning to the house's grand foyer, there came a knock at the door.
My son was standing there.  He was happy and carefree, clearly living
a life of deep harmony and joy.  We embraced, a warm and loving
embrace, nothing withheld.  We were, in this moment, one. My vision
        ended and I awoke with a tremendous feeling of optimism and
confidence in you and your future.  That was my vision of you. I'm
so glad to have had this opportunity to share it with you. I wish
you nothing but the best in all things."
      BB: "Thank you Dad."
      Bobby appears moved. Hank asks Briggs how the pie was and salutes him.
   -- Norma won't talk about Shelley and Bobby recognizes Hank as he who
      shot Leo.
   -- Cooper and Albert tell their theory of what happened on 2/23
C: The night Laura Palmer was killed, it appears she made 2
   appointments. In her diary, she had written, "Nervous about
   meeting J. tonight." I now believe this was a refernce to James
   Hurley. She was nervous because she planned to tell him she
   didn't want to see him anymore. Before she snuck out of the
   house, she received a phone call.
A: We believe it was Leo Johnson making a second appointment
   for some time later that night.
C: Laura met James, was with him until 12:30 when, at the intersection
   of 21 and Sparkwood, she jumped from the bike and ran into
   the woods. We believe that it was there that she met up with
   Jacques Renault, Leo Johnson and Ronette Pulaski. Together
   they drove to the foot of the trail leading to Jacques' cabin.
   They climbed the trail, they were heard passing the cabin of
   the Log Lady. They reached Jacques Renault's cabin at approximately
   1 am. Drugs and alcohgol were consumed. Laura was tied up
   and had sexual relations with both Leo and Jacques. Waldo the
   bird was let out of his cage and attacked Laura. Leo and
   Jacques fought. Jacques went outside and passed out. When he
   came to, Leo and the girls were gone. We believe Leo hiked
   back down to his Corvette alone, leaving the girls behind.
A: The reason being, there was a third man.
C: Deputy Hawk found evidence of a third man outside the window
   of Jacques' cabin.
A: The third man took Laura and Ronette to the train car, where
   they were tied up. Laura for the 2nd time, Ronette for the 1st.
C: Using a blunt object, the killer hit Ronette and knocked her
   unconscious. He must've been so intent on killing Laura, he
   didn't realize Ronette regained consciousness and escaped.
A: He either didn't know or he didn't care. He made a small mound
   of dirt and put the half heart necklace of Laura's on top. He
   then placed a small cut out letter R under the nail of her
   left ring finger. You'll recall he placed the letter T under
   the fingernail of Theresa Banks. He, uh, left a note written in
   blood, "Fire, walk with me."
C: Here's the interesting thing. The blood on the note was tested.
   It doesn't match Leo's, Jacques', Laura's or Ronette's.
A: So we surmise the killer wrote the note in his own blood. The
   rare type, AB negative. The towel that Deputy Hawk found five
   miles down the tracks was soaked in blood of that type. He
   also found, near the towel, scraps of faded paper.
C: The scraps may have been left by the killer. They'll be sent
   back to Washington DC for testing.
{Andy cries}
A: I know, Andy, I know, I know, I know. It's what we call a real
   three hanky crime.
Andy: Albert Rosenfeld. I don't like the way you talk smart about
      Sherrif Truman or anybody. You just shut your mouth! {Exits}
C: Laura Palmer is dead. Jacques Renault is dead. Ronette
   Pulaski and Leo Johnson are in comas. Waldo the bird is dead.
   This leaves only the third man.
   -- Truman gives Pete a ride home. P: This smoke inhalation is nasty
      business. I feel like somebody taped my lips to the tailpipe
      of a bus.
      Josie left a note; she went to Seattle, she goes shopping every 3
      months. An Asian man calls, asking for her, then he makes a collect
      call to Hong Kong.
   -- Ben and Jerry meet with Hank. Hank confirms he put Catherine in the mill
      and they hope to frame the arson on her and Leo.
   -- Audrey meets with Blackie, she's not pleased with her not satisfying the
      owner

   Night
   -- Donna calls Norma about taking over Laura's Meals on Wheels route.
      She'll use the RR station wagon.
   -- At the Hayward Supper Club, Gersten plays the piano and Harriet
      recites a poem:
        "It was Laura
        And I saw her glowing.
        In the dark woods,
        I saw her smiling.

        We were crying
        And I saw her laughing.
        In our sadness,
        I saw her dancing.

        It was Laura
        Living in my dreams.

        It was Laura.
        The glow was life.
        Her smile was to say
        It was all right to cry.

        The woods was our sadness.
        The dance was her calling.
        It was Laura
        And she came to kiss me goodbye."
      Donna sits on her hands. Leland sings "Get Happy" and collapses.

   11:55 (Cooper to Diane)
   -- Cooper goes to bed. C to D: I'm dog tired. A man can only go long
without submitting to a period of rest. As we know from experiments
conducted on American GI's during the Korean War, sleep deprivation
is a one way ticket to temporary psychosis. And I'm working on a
3 day jag.
   -- Audrey prays for Cooper
   -- The Giant returns:
      G: "Sorry to wake you."
      C: "I'm not dreaming."
      G: "I forgot to tell you something."
      C: "You were right about the smiling bag."
      G: "The things I tell you will not be wrong. Better to listen then to
talk."
      C: "I believe you."
      G: "Don't search for all the answers at once.  A path is formed by
laying one stone at a time. One person saw the third man. Three have
seen him, yes. But not his body. One only. Known to you. Ready now to
talk. One more thing: you forgot something."
      C: "What?"
      { Flash of green gets zapped into Coop. He lies alone in the dark,
      blinking.  }
   -- Ronnette has a vision of Bob and Laura

   Morning
   -- Cooper talks to Albert about Tibet over breakfast:
      C: Buddhist tradition first came to the land of snow in the fifth
century AD. The first Tibetan came to be touched by the Dharma was
King Hathatha Rignamputsan. He and succeeding generations came to be
collectively called the Happy Generations. Now some historians place
them in the Water Snake Year, two-thirteen AD; others in the year
of the water ox 173 AD. Amazing isn't it? The Happy Generations.
      A: Agent Cooper, I am thrilled to pieces that the Dharama came to King
Hohoho, I really am, but right now I am trying hard to focus on the
 more immediate problems of our own century right in Twin Peaks.
      C: Albert, you'd be surprised at the connection between the two.

      BRIGGS: I have a message for you.
      COOPER: From whom?
      BRIGGS: I'm not at liberty to reveal the nature of my work. This
secrecy pains me from time to time. Any bureaucracy that
functions in secret inevitably lends itself to corruption.
But these rules I have pledged to uphold and I believe a
pledge is sacred.

February 22.  Last night I had the strangest dream. I was in a
red room with a small man, dressed in red, and an old man
sitting in a chair.  I tried to talk to him.  I wanted to tell
him who BOB is, because I thought he could help me.  But my
words came out slow and odd.  It was frustrating trying to talk.
I got up and walked to the old man.  Then I leaned over and
whispered the secret in his ear.
Somebody has to stop BOB.  BOB's only afraid of one man.  He
told me once.  A man named Mike.  I wonder if this was Mike in
my dream.  Even if it was only a dream, I hope he heard me.  No
one in the real world would believe me.
February 23.  Tonight is the night that I die.  I know I have
to because it's the only way to keep BOB away from me.  The
only way to tear him out from inside.  I know he wants me.  I
can feel his fire.  But if I die he can't hurt me anymore.

   Early morning
   -- Dick and Andy listen to Lucy. Dick smokes.
   -- Cooper tells his story of how the answer was staring him in the
      face all this time - Leland's dancing, grey hair, Robertson, the
      letters, the secret diary. Leland recites Mike's poem and Bob's
      response. The sprinklers go off and Leland rams his head into the door.
      <Cooper, Albert, and Truman burst into the room. The sprinkler system
      has gone off and water is pouring over them all>
      Cooper: Call an ambulence! <Cooper kneels next to Leland and cradles
Leland's head in his lap. For the rest of the scene he strokes
Leland's hair and face, comforting him.>
      Leland: Oh God! Laura! I killed her. Oh my God, I killed my daughter.
I didn't know. Forgive me. Oh God. I was just a boy. I saw him
in my dream. He said he wanted to play. He opened me and I
invited him and he came inside me. When he was inside, I
didn't know. When he was gone, I couldn't remember. He made me
do things. Terrible things. He said he wanted lives. He wanted
others, others that they could use, like they used me.
      Cooper: Like Laura.
      Leland: They wanted her. But she was strong. She fought. She wouldn't
let him in. Oh God. They had me kill that girl, Theresa. And
they said if I didn't give them Laura, they'd have me kill
her, too.
      Cooper: But she wouldn't let them in.
      Leland: They said she'd die before she'd let them. Then they made me
kill her. Oh God, have mercy on me. What have I done? What
have I done? Oh God. I love her. I love her with all my heart.
My angel, forgive me.
      <Cooper looks to Albert, who shakes his head -- apparently Leland
      isn't going to live>
      Cooper: Leland. Leland, the time has come for you to seek the path.
Your soul has set you face to face with the clear light and
you are now about to experience it in its reality. Wherein all
things are like the void and cloudless sky and the naked
spotless intellect is like a transparent vacuum, without
circumference or center. Leland, in this moment, know yourself
and abide in that state. Look to the light, Leland. Find the
light. 
      Leland: I see it.
      Cooper: Into the light, Leland. Into the light.
      Leland: I see... Her. She's there.
      Cooper: Into the light, Leland.
      Leland: She's beautiful.
      Cooper: Into the light.
      Leland: Laura?
      Cooper: Don't be afraid.
      <Leland dies. Wordlessly Cooper pushes his own hair back and looks up.
      The sprinklers shut off>

   Day
   -- Cooper, Albert and Truman, on the path, meet Briggs and they discuss
      Bob

      Leland's final moments
   -- Leland's wake. Dr. Jacoby's back from Hawaii. Mayor Dwayne Milford
      pulls his brother Dougie's ear. Dougie owns the newspaper and is
      engaged to be married. The Mayor first ran for that office in '62.
      Cooper to Truman: Harry, I'm really gonna miss this place.
   -- Dr. Jacoby and Ed ask to have 35 year old Nadine admitted to school
   -- Audrey sees Cooper, who tells his tale of Earle.
   -- Bobby puts on Leo's clothes and goes to see Ben

      be an owl-shaped smudge on her cheek.
   -- Dick talks to Lucy while she's replacing ceiling light bulbs. Andy
      offers to be friends.
   -- Cooper says goodbye to Truman, who gives him a green butt skunk hook
      and a Bookhouse Boy patch. He says goodbye to Hawk, Andy and Lucy,
      when Roger Hardy arrives with a mountie and tells Cooper he has been
      suspended from the FBI.
   -- Audrey gets Bobby in to see Ben, but gets kicked out. They go to
      get ice cream. B: Cup or cone? A: Mmmm...cone. I like to lick.
   -- Roger and the mountie question Cooper, who surrenders his gun and
      badge. They only knew of two deaths, and Cooper didn't know about
      Battis. Truman stands up for Cooper.
   -- Nadine Butler tries out for cheerleading
   -- Shelley brushes Leo's teeth. Bobby calls, Leo moves.

   Night

      he'll put some of the stolen cocaine in Cooper's car
   -- Josie, injured, returns to Truman's place
   -- Cooper and Briggs around a campfire:
      COOPER: At the time I did what I thought was right. I must now face
the consequences.
      BRIGGS: You can do no more.
      (Cooper and Major Briggs, roasting marshmallows over a campfire.)
      COOPER: You know, Major, I find myself thinking a lot about BOB.
If he truly exists.
      BRIGGS: Yes, I've pondered that same question continuously since this
horror was revealed.
      COOPER:I try to imagine him out there, incarnate, looking for
another victim to inhabit.
      BRIGGS:There are powerful forces of evil in the world. It is some
men's fate to face great darkness. We each choose how to react.
If the choice is fear, then we become vulnerable to darkness.
There are ways to resist. You, sir, were blessed with certain
gifts. In this respect, you are not alone. Have you ever heard
of the White Lodge?
      COOPER: The White Lodge. No, I don't believe I have.
      (Briggs appears to ponder what he should say about this.)
      (Angle on the woods from the point of view of some unknown entity,
      moving through the woods.)
      COOPER:Major, I'm going to take a moment here. I feel the call of
        nature. There's nothing quite like urinating out in the open air. I
look forward to hearing more about this White Lodge.
(Cooper moves off into the woods. Major Briggs laughs, gives
the departing Cooper a "thumb's-up".)
When I return. From my journey.
      (Lingering on Briggs, who looks off in the direction of Cooper's
      exit with a speculative expression. An owl hoots. Major Briggs looks
      up, alarmed.)
      (Cooper urinating in the woods. An owl hoots in the tree above him.
      Cooper watches the owl. Suddenly a brilliant white light appears
      behind him. Cooper turns toward the light.)
      (Angle on Briggs, bathed in blinding white light.)
      BRIGGS:COOPER! COOPER!
      (A robed figure appears in the light, backlit. No features are visible.)
      (Cooper dashes through the woods to the camp site. The Major is gone.)
      COOPER: Major Briggs? MAJOR?
      (Cooper looks at the light. It seems to be receding into the woods.
      Cooper runs toward it. He reaches the top of a small hill and freezes,
      looking into the light. The light blinks out.)

   Morning
   -- James cycles
   -- Mrs. Briggs talks to Cooper and Truman about her husnad's disappearence.

   -- Andy leaves flowers for Lucy
   -- Dick brings Nicky, his charge from Happy Helping Hand, to the station.
      Andy offers him a malt.
   -- Cooper, Truman, and Hawk discuss the White Lodge:
      HAWK: Cooper, you may be fearless in this world, but there are other
worlds.
      COOPER: Tell me more.
      HAWK: My people believe that the White Lodge is a place where the
spirits that rule man and nature here reside.
      TRUMAN: Local legend. Goes way back.
      HAWK: There is also a legend of a place called the Black Lodge...
the shadow-self of the White Lodge. The legend says that
every spirit must pass through there on the way to perfection.
There, you will meet your own shadow-self. My people call
it "The Dweller on the Threshhold." 
      COOPER: "The Dweller on the Threshhold..."
      HAWK: But it is said, if you confront the Black Lodge with imperfect
courage, it will utterly annihilate your soul.
   -- Dennis arrives. He and Cooper worked together in Oakland. An RCMP
      officer says he stole drugs.
   -- Nadine leg presses 600 lbs.
   -- Josie tells Harry about Eckhart. He took her off the streets in Hong Kong
      at 16 and taught her about life and business. She was afraid for her
      life when she met Andrew, a business aprtner. She says she believes
      Eckhart is responsible for Andrew's death. She escaped from the airport
      at Seattle.
   -- Roger has pie at the RR (story on Leland in his paper)

      Northern. Hank arrives: Ben, I have had an absolutely killer schedule.
      Ben wants to rearrange furniture. Hank tells him OEJ has been taken
      over. Ben makes shadow figures.
   -- Cooper gets an envelope from Windom Earle. P to Q4.
      "Of course, you couldn't help but take note of my emphatically
      traditional opening. I must say, your responding move was nothing
      if not reflective of your predilection for the tidy and fastidious.
      See how my response to you begins to lead us towards a classical
      confrontation? But there's doubt in your mind: what are my true
      intentions? How will you answer this time? Hobgoblins, Dale...
      consistency...predictability, giving rise to patterns. We both
      know only too well how these patterns leave you vulnerable to
      attack. You with your wounds, I with mine, let me paint you a
      picture: my knights will skirmish, lanes of power and influence
      will open through my bishops and rooks, pawns will naturally
      be forfeit. I'm even prepared to sacrifice my queen because,
      I assure you, dear Dale, my goal will be attained at any cost;
      the king must die!"
   -- The Milford wedding. Dwayne objects.

   -- Josie tells Catherine Thomas Echhart killed Andrew and she should be
      careful. Catherine employs Josie as her maid. Andrew's alive:
      "Everything's going exactly as we planned." He and Catherine will be
      waiting for Eckhart.

My thoughts on TPless Saturdays....

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
   Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

So far I've coped, but it has been expensive.

This past Saturday, we went out in search of a life.  Dinner, a 
movie and dancing (Chinese, Dances with Wolves and not-very-good
music, if you're interested).  Considerably more expensive than
coffee and cherry pie in front of the tube.


The Saturday before I was forced to visit my in-laws since I lacked
a suitable excuse.  TP depression was not considered an adequate
excuse.  Six-hundred miles one-way and week in a large city.  Even
more expensive than the above.

The Saturday before that, I embarked on a holiday shopping frenzy.
Considerably more money was spent than if I had left earlier in 
order to make the cherry pie in time for TP.

I'm so excited about this next Saturday, that I'm going to make
both cherry pie AND chocolate bunnies.  So there.

Connie

My thoughts on the recent TP-less Saturdays:

No show runs new episodes every single week.  Usually they fill
up the time with re-runs of previous shows.  However, due to the
format of Twin Peaks, you can't just run this season's shows
in any random order (as you can do with a show like, say, Hunter).
It would be too confusing to stick in a random episode  as a
rerun--and which would you show again anyway?  So naturally when
there are no new episodes to show, ABC will pre-empt TP with
something else.

Make sense?

--Morpheus

To all the people who've been writing "Uh Oh, looks like Twin Peaks is
cancelled!" --

OK, come on you guys, don't you watch any other TV other than Twin Peaks?
What's beein going on with almost every TV show over the last month?
RIGHT! Reruns!  It's become an American institution to have a series of
reruns for three or so weeks around Christmas so that the shows can get
ahead on their shooting schedule again.  But Think:  Wouldn't it be kind
of stupid for Twin Peaks to have three weeks of reruns shuffled in among
the new episodes?  Wouldn't this somehow break the continuity of the series?
(I'll bet that they rerun the whole series in order during the summer.)
Anyhow, I've said what I wanted to; you can go back to telling us for the
fiftieth time how there was no show last Saturday (though there WAS a trailer
for next week's episode).

Well, Saturday Night Live re-ran the show with the Twin Peaks spoof.
I gave me my little Twin Peaks fix for the week.

Major Briggs: "There are powerful forces of evil. It is some men's fate
      to face great darkness. We each choose how to react. If the choice
      is fear, then we become vulnerable to darkness. There are ways to
      resist. You, sir, were blessed with certain gifts. In this respect,
      you're not alone. Have you ever heard of the White Lodge?"

Agent Cooper: "The White Lodge. No, I don't believe I have."


Well, Cooper hasn't, but I have. I don't know of any other "legitimate"
source for the reference, but following are quotes from the fantasy
adventure novel THE DEVIL'S GUARD (a.k.a. RAMSDEN) by Talbot Mundy,
first published in 1926, and sadly out of print for the last 20 years.
The page numbers cited are for the 1968 Avon Books paperback edition,
though if you happen across a different edition and are inclined to look
up the quotes, they can be found in Chapter XII, entitled "Dugpas".

[Background: James Schuyler Grim (a.k.a. "Jimgrim") and his companions
Jeff Ramsden, Narayan Singh, and Chullander Ghose, are hired to find
Elmer Rait, a fellow American who's disappeared in Tibet. Along the way,
they are beset by perils both natural and human.]

Grim went on talking: "It's known, even in this monastery,
that the dugpas have caught Rait. Dugpas is the name for
sorcerers who cultivate evil for the sake of evil--that's
as close as I can come to understanding it--they're vaguely
like the Kali-worshippers of India. The people Rait set out
to reach, and whom we want to reach, are the students of
Life, so to speak--much in the same way that Luther Burbank
studies botany, for the love of it. The dugpas are as much
their enemies as the law of gravity is the enemy of the will
to rise. Rait had intelligence enough to work his way into
the outer fringe of the dugpa mysteries, but that was his
limit. He began to try to use the Dalai Lama's letter that
he stole from Mordecai. The Dalai Lama--or the Kun-Dun as
they call him--and the Tashi Lama of Shigatze, are the trusted
outer representatives of the inner secret White Lodge, whose
whose headquarters is said to be Sham-bha-la."  (p. 120-1)

Lhaten was talking..."--No, the White Lodge is not at
Sham-bha-la, but some of its brotherhood live there. The
White Lodge never interferes with individuals, as such, any
more than Nature may be said to interfere with individuals,
as such. The greatest good of the greatest number always;
and no favorites. Do the stars, for instance, limit their
light to individuals? Yet one learns more about than another.
How? By trying; by concentration on the study. Do the stars
come nearer? No. Do they treat him differently? No. Neither
does the White Lodge make distinctions. It is secret, just
as electricity was secret before Thales, Gilbert, Faraday,
and all of the others following them, discovered something
about it. Electricity was there, always, but they had to
find it; and having found it they could give it to the world,
to use or misuse. Was electricity confined to any one place?
No. Neither is the White Lodge confined to any one place.
But some places are more suitable than others, just as there
are certain places where it is more practical to establish
electric plants...."

"How has the White Lodge kept its secret all these years?"
Grim asked.

"Who kept the secret of electricity?" Lhaten answered. "Was
there any need to keep it, while men were too stupid, or too
busily engaged in cutting one another's throats (which is the
same thing!) even to look for it? They were too superstitious
to dare to investigate; afraid to be mocked or burned for
heresy. Nowadays men know not much more, and they are as
superstitious and as cocksure as ever. Nine tenths of them
will mock you if you speak of the existence of the White
Lodge; of the remaining tenth, some will try to put you in
a lunatic asylum, some will curse you in the name of their
religion, and the remainder will try to believe you for
various reasons, most of them selfish..."  (p 124-5)

"To pursue evil, a man must have evil tendencies which will
increase through cultivation as he becomes more and more
responsive to the impulses that govern evil. Owls live in
the dark. [emphasis mine - jmb :-)]          ^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^                        Whales swim in the sea.
Men with scientific tendencies discover laws of nature.
Only those who have the character pertaining to the path
they choose can succeed in the end; and though a shoemaker,
like Kabir, can become a poet, that was because he had the
poet's nature. In the same way, only they who have the
necessary character can find or be received into the White
Lodge, although anyone can receive its benefits, as anyone
may read the poems of Kabir."  (p. 128)

A teaser during Ghostbusters last week showed yet another TP resident --
an old one -- dead.  He looks really old -- might be the waiter, but I
couldn't quite tell.

Did anyone else out there see the commercial?  (I have it on tape -- my
VCR tapes every Saturday and it got the movie instead of TP -- but I was
still unsure even after freeze-framing it.)

Did anyone catch the Saturday Night Live version of Twin Peaks :-)

Many thanks to the people who brought us the Twin Peaks random quote-spewing
programs!

A few weeks back, an update to TP275 was posted, correcting some quote 
duplications.  Trouble is, when the conversion was done, all of the quotes
were truncated out near column 75, so the ends of several lines were cut off.

I tried to send e-mail back then, but it bounced.  Does anyone know how to find
them?

Can't wait to see the next version!

Yeah! Leo did it. He confessed and everything but Agent Cooper refused
to listen to him. :)

Can anyone give me a quick run down of what Blue Velvet was about? Is it
available in the video stores yet?

Thanks, Susan

I'll be dagged if I haven't lost their address myself... no, hold on... no,
it's gone.  BUT--I was the person who compiled the quote list which they seem
to have damaged.  Here's the complete thing--hey, it's better than nothing....

I haven't yet seen the most recent episode, but thanks to Dave Mack and some
others, there are _some_ quotes from it in here anyway.

------------------------------
Cooper:  I'm sure the Sheriff will be able to recommend a clean place,
reasonably priced--that's what I need, a clean place, reasonably priced.

Leo:  Leo needs a new pair of shoes!

Ben:    Leland's daughter was murdered and the Norwegians left.
Jerry:  Did they sign?
Ben:    No.
Jerry:  We had those vikings by the HORNS!  What HAPPENED?
Ben:    We're not exactly sure; they took the translator with them.
Jerry:  Sigh.  Did you say Leland's daughter was murdered?
Ben:    Yes.
Jerry:  I'm depressed.

Cooper:  Harry, when Albert finishes up at the Great Northern, we'll meet back
         at the station.  I'm ready to lay the whole thing out.
Truman:  Rocks and bottles?
Cooper:  Chalk and blackboard will be just fine.
Truman:  Jelly donuts?
Cooper:  Harry, that goes without saying.

Andy:  Lucy!
Lucy:  What?
Andy:  <Crash!>
Lucy:  Andy?

Senor Droolcup:  Your milk is gonna get cool....
Cooper (lying on his back, bleeding):  OhKaayy

Sarah Palmer:  I miss her so much.  I miss her so much!  I miss her so much!!!

Cooper:  Sheriff, get your mind off Shelley.

Audrey (naked in Cooper's bed, to Cooper):  Don't make me leave?  Please...
don't make me leave?

Truman:  I'll make the phone calls.  Leland will know how to get a hold of
         Maddy's family.
Cooper:  Harry, don't make any calls.  I need twenty-four hours.
Truman:  For what?
Cooper:  To finish this.
Albert:  Cooper.  [Cooper walks over]  An observation.  I don't know where this
         is headed.  But the only one with the coordinates for this destination
         in his hardware is you.  Go on whatever vision quest you have to--
         stand on the rim of the volcano--stand alone and do your dance.  Just
         find this beast before he takes another bite.
Cooper:  God help me, I don't know where to start.
Hawk:    You're on the path.  You don't need to know where it leads.  Just
         follow.

Chief Norwegian (to Audrey):  Is something wrong, young, pretty girl?

Cooper:  Albert's path is a strange and difficult one.

Dick:  I lost your number....
Lucy:  I work at the sheriff's office!  You could have dialed 911!

Albert:  Agent Cooper, I am thrilled to pieces that the Dharma came to King
         Hohoho, I really am, but right now I am trying hard to focus on the
         more immediate problems of our own century, right here in Twin Peaks.
Cooper:  Albert, you'd be surprised at the connections between the two.
Albert:  Color me amazed.

Bobby (to Leo):  Quit spittin', man!

Truman:  You saw a giant?
Cooper:  Yes.
Albert:  Any relation to the dwarf? 

Hawk:  Some of my best friends are white people!

Pete:  This smoke inhalation is a nasty business.  I feel like someone taped my
lips to the tailpipe of a bus!

[Waitress pours Cooper's coffee:]
Cooper:  Wait a minute!  Wait a minute!  [sips, sighs blissfully]  This is--
excuse me--a DAMN fine cup of coffee.  I've had I don't know how many cups of
coffee in my life, but this is one of the best.  Two eggs over hard.  I know,
I know, it's hard on the arteries, but old habits die hard--just about as hard
as I want those eggs.  Two strips of bacon, extra crispy--almost black.
Cremate it.  And I'd like a big glass of grapefruit juice, just as long as
those grapefruits... [sees Audrey walking towards him] ...are freshly squeezed.

Jerry:  Marshmallows?!!  Ben, WHERE are those HICKORY STICKS?

Gwen:  You see, people just wanna do terrible things to you.  I know.

Cooper:  Look!  Ducks!  On a lake!  Ahhh.

Pete:  Now let me get this straight... your _entire_country_ is _above_ the
_timberline_?

Jonathan:  Blood brother, next time, I take your head off.

Giant:   Sorry to wake you.
Cooper:  I'm not dreaming.
Giant:   I forgot to tell you something.
Cooper:  You were right about the smiling bag.
Giant:   The things I tell you will not be wrong.   Better to listen than
         to talk.
Cooper:  I believe you.
Giant:   Don't search for all the answers at once.  A path is formed by
         laying one stone at a time.  One person saw the third man.  Three
         have seen him, yes, but not his body.  One only, known to you, ready
         now to talk.  One more thing:  there is something which you have
         forgotten.
Cooper:  What?
Giant:   <Flash!>

Mike:  This is his true face, but few can see it.  The gifted--and the 
_damned._

Donna:   Romantic, isn't it?
Harold:  Interesting...it serves as a landing platform for pollinating insects.
Donna:   Romantic, isn't it?

Truman:  You know, I should take up medicine.
Cooper:  Oh?  Why's that?
Truman:  Because I'm beginning to feel a bit like... Dr. Watson.

Leland:  Just call me Fred!

Cooper:  Mrs. Palmer, there are things dark and heinous in this world.

Judge Sternwood:   So, Agent Cooper, how are you finding our little corner of
                   the world?
Cooper:     It's heaven, sir.
Judge S.:   Well, this week heaven includes arson, multiple homicide, and an
            attempt on the life of a Federal agent.
Cooper:     Heaven is a large and interesting place, sir!

Catherine:  I can't understand a word you're saying... you have a thing in your
mouth!

Truman:  What's going on?
Lucy: Thanks to Jade, Gerard decided not to kill himself.  And he's changed
         his will, leaving the Towers to Jade instead of Emerald.  But Emerald
         found out about it, and now she's trying to seduce Chet to give her
         the new will so that she can destroy it, and Montana's planning to
         kill Gerard at midnight so the Towers will belong to Emerald and
         Montana but I think she's going to double-cross him though he doesn't
         know it.  Poor Chet!
Truman:  What's going on _here_?

Bobby:  Doc Hayward said you needed familiar stimulants, so we figured, what
the hell, kazoos.

Cooper:  It's a good idea to leave your troubles at home when you operate a
motor vehicle, Leland.

Log Lady:  My husband was a logging man... he met the devil.  Fire is the
devil, hiding like a coward in the smoke.

Jerry:  Ben, as your attorney, your friend, and your brother, I strongly 
suggest you get a better lawyer.

Cooper:  Diane, last night I dreamed I was eating a large, tasteless gumdrop,
and awoke to discover I was chewing on one of my foam disposable earplugs.
Perhaps I should consider moderating my nighttime coffee consumption.

Catherine:  Everything here smells like fish.
Pete:       Well, you could try washing your socks separately.

Ben:         So, here in Twin Peaks, health and industry go hand-in-hand.
Translator:  Helse og industri de gaar haand-i-haand.

Major:   You appear to be fully recovered from your recent setback.
Jacoby:  Well, nothing beats the restorative powers of Honolai Bay. 

Mike:  He is BOB!  Eager for fun!  He wears a smile.  EVERYBODY RUN.

Cooper:  Did you know Laura Palmer?
Leo:     No.
Cooper:  How well did you know her?
Leo:     I said I didn't!
Cooper (smiling):  You're lying.

Ben:   What's she want?!  I'll pay anything!  What's she _want_??!!
Pete:  You OK there, Benjy?

Jacques:  So Leo put the chip in her mouth, and say, "Bite the bullet, baby,
biiite the bullet!!"

Cooper:  In another world he might have been a seer or a shaman priest... here
he's just a shoe salesman who walks with the shadows.

Andy:  Listen to me, Lucy Moran, you just listen.  When the Tacoma Sperm Bank
was looking for donors, naturally I applied.  It's my civic duty and I like
whales.  A routine physical examination revealed that I'm sterile.  Sure I
thought it meant that I didn't have to take a bath, but the doctors told me
the truth.  They told me I can't have babies.  So what I wanna know now is why
are you having one and how?

Catherine:  Are you an ambitious man, Mr. Neff?
Mr. Neff:   One likes to think so.
Catherine:  One never knows.  There may still be a few T's left to cross.

Cooper:  Laura and I had the same dream.
Andy:    That's impossible!
Cooper:  Yes, it is.

Hawk:  I had to drink 3 pots of chamomile tea to find that out!  Which reminds
me--can I be excused, sir?

Cooper:  So Harry, how long you been seeing her?
Truman (awestruck):  How did you know?
Cooper:  Body language.
Truman:  Geez louise!

Albert:  Okay, confining my conclusions to the planet Earth....

Pierre:  Sometimes things happen just like THAT.  <snap!>

Pete:    And how do you take your coffee, Agent Cooper?
Cooper:  Black as midnight on a moonless night.
Pete:    Pret-ty black.

Cooper:  This morning, I will practice an extra twenty minutes of yogic dis-
cipline, after which the pain is banished to a cul-de-sac in a remote suburb
of my conscious mind.

Nadine:  Where are Mom and Dad?
Big Ed:  Whooooa!  They're... out of town!
Nadine:  Oh.  Okay!

Leo:  <spit>  new shoes!

Major:   For starters, would you care to join me for an incredibly
         pleasant evening of night fishing?
Cooper:  Aces!

Lucy:  All men in the world should be taken to a desert island and forced to
eat sand!

Nadine:  Ed!  You waiting for those drapes to hang themselves?

Cooper:  I think I saw a rabbit!
Truman:  Must've been a snowshoe rabbit.
Cooper:  Snowshoe!  Snowshoe rabbit!

Jerry:  Lord, what's become of us?

Albert:  I performed the autopsy on Jacques Renault.  Stomach contents re-
         vealed, let's see, beer cans, a Maryland license plate, half a bi-
         cycle tire, a goat, and a small wooden puppet.  Goes by the name of
         Pinocchio.
Cooper:  You're making a joke!
Albert:  I like to think of myself as one of the happy generations.

Andy:  They shot Waldo!

Log Lady:  Sometimes owls are big.

Cooper:  So... are you still seeing this... Dick?

Hawk:    One woman can make you fly like an eagle.  Another can give you the
         strength of a lion.  But only one in a cycle of life can fill you with
         gladness and the wisdom that you have known a singular joy.  I wrote
         that for my girlfriend.
Cooper:  Girlfriend?
Hawk:    Diane Shapiro.  PhD, Brandeis.
Cooper:  Ooo.

Log Lady:  I do not introduce the log!

Cooper:  Wanna know why I'm whittling?
Truman:  OK, I'll bite.  Why are you whittling?
Cooper:  Because that's what you do in a town where a yellow light still means
 slow down, not speed up.

Ben:  If you will permit me, Sven, to repeat what you told me this morning
after your run--"My air sacs have never felt so good!"

Bobby:  Dad?
Major:  Yes, son?
Bobby:  What is it that you do, exactly?
Major:  That's classified.
Bobby:  Oh.

Jerry:  Look at what she gave me:   a whole leg of lamb!  You sprinkle some
garlic on that, some fresh mint, that's rotisserie heaven!

Cooper:  Sheriff, what kind of fantastic trees have you got around here?  Big,
 majestic--
Truman:  Douglas firs.
Cooper:  Douglas firs....

Jerry:  Brother Ben, we've got two ledgers and a smoked cheese pig... so which
one do we burn?  And it ain't gonna be my pig.

Cooper:  Diane, I'm holding in my hand a small box of chocolate bunnies.

Leland:  Dance with me!  Please, someone, dance with me!!

Sarah Palmer:  Don't ruin this too!

Audrey:  Friendship is the foundation of any lasting relationship.
Cooper:  Well, it's nice to be quoted accurately.

Lucy:  Sheriff, it's Pete Martell up at the mill.  Um, I'm gonna transfer it
to the phone on the table by the red chair, the red chair against the wall.
The little table, with the lamp on it--the lamp that we moved from the corner?
The BLACK phone, not the brown phone.

Cooper:  They got a cherry pie there that'll kill ya!

Gordon:  COOP, YOU REMIND ME TODAY OF A SMALL, MEXICAN CHIWOWWOW.

Albert:  You listen to _me_!  While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the
fact is I am a nay-sayer and a hatchet man in the fight against violence!  I
pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another because I choose
to live my life in the company of Gandhi and King!  My concerns are _global_.
I reject absolutely revenge, aggression, and retaliation.  The foundation of
such a method... is love.  I love you, Sheriff Truman.

Pierre: She SEEMED like a nice girl.

Cooper:  You and Laura had a fight last week, is that correct?
Bobby:   So WHAT!  If I had a fight with her, if I sang songs with her, if I
         went skipping ROPE with her--WHAT difference does it make?!?  I
         DIDN'T KILL HER!
Cooper (grinning widely):  Bobby, here's how this works.  I ask the questions,
         and you answer them!  Briefly!  And to the point!

Doc Hayward:  Nurse, I really mean it.  You better speak to that kitchen.

Nadine:  I am just so happy!
Glass:   <Crunch!!>
Nadine:  OH!!  I'm so sorry!  There goes _another_ one!!

Andy:  I'm a WHOLE DAMN TOWN!!!

Log Lady:  Dark.  Laughing.  The owls were flying.  Many things were blocked.
           Laughing.  Two men, two girls.  Flashlights pass by in the woods
           over the ridge.  The owls were near.  The dark was pressing in on
           her.  Quiet then.  Later, footsteps.  One man passed by.  Screams
           far away.  Terrible.  Terrible.  One voice.
Cooper:    Man or girl?
Log Lady:  Girl.  The owls were silent.

Cooper:  Man!  Smell those trees.  Smell those Douglas firs.

Sarah Palmer:  Laura, honey, are you upstairs?

Cooper:  Harry, I really have to urinate!

James:  When'd you start smokin'?
Donna:  I smoke every once in a while.  Helps relieve tension.
James:  When'd you get so tense?
Donna:  When I started smokin'.

Ben:     Go away.  Get out, go on!  Go on!  I'm going out for a sandwich.
         <scuffle scuffle>  No!  No!  No!  You can't do this!
Cooper:  It's already done.

Nadine:  Love me?
Big Ed:  You bet.

Secretary at the Great Northern:  The Norwegians are leaving!  The _Norwegians_
are _leaving_!

Cooper:  Gentlemen, two days ago a young woman was found murdered by the same
         killer I believe responsible for the death of Laura Palmer.  I have
         reason to believe the killer is in this room.  As a member of the
         Bureau I spend most of my time seeking simple answers to difficult
         questions.  In the pursuit of Laura's killer I have employed Bureau
         guidelines, deductive technique, Tibetan method, instinct, and luck.
         But now I find myself in need of something new, which for lack of a
         better word, I will call... magic.
         [Thunder & lightning!]
Ben:     Would you like us to hum?  A Tibetan chant, perhaps?
Albert (to Truman):  I think it's going wonderfully well, don't you?
Truman (to Cooper):  Now what?
Cooper:  Harry, I'm not completely sure.  Someone is missing.
         [Major and Senor Droolcup appear at the door as clock strikes 3]
Major:   Excuse us.
Cooper:  Major Briggs.  Right on time.
Major:   I was on my way home.  This kind gentleman flagged me down and asked
         if I could drive him here.
         [Senor Droolcup dodders up to Cooper and gives him a stick of gum]
Leland:  I know that gum!  I used to chew it when I was a kid!  That's my most
         favorite gum in the world.
Senor Droolcup:  That gum you like is going to come back in style.
         [Still flashes of everyone in the room, ending with Cooper... the
         Roadhouse fades out, and Cooper's in the red room from the dream.
         Laura moves to him, kisses him, and whispers in his ear:]
Laura:   My father... killed me....
         [The dream fades away, Cooper is standing in the empty Roadhouse, and
         the Giant appears.  The Giant holds out Cooper's ring and vanishes.
         The ring falls to the floor and the vision ends.  
         Cooper pops the gum in his mouth, picks up the ring, and:]
Cooper:  Ben Horne, I would like you to accompany me to the sheriff's station.
         You might like to take along Leland Palmer as your attorney.

Pete:  There was a fish... in... the percolator!

<Cooper reaches for one of the Log Lady's cookies and she slaps his hand:>
Log Lady:  Wait for the tea!  The fish aren't running!

Truman:  Think they spotted us?
Cooper:  Gimme a donut.

Albert (in reference to Sheriff Truman):  Look, it's trying to think.

Secretary at the Great Northern:  Audrey, look what you've done!  Audrey....
Audrey, don't go in there--Audrey!

Cooper:  Diane, I've just entered the town of Twin Peaks.  Twelve miles south
of the Canadian border, eight miles west of the state line.  I've never seen
so many trees in my life!  As W. C. Fields would say, I'd rather be here than
Philadelphia.

Jacoby:  Bobby--did you CRY?!?

Ernie:  I never stole from a church!  It was a savings & loan!

Doc Hayward:  You're not going anywhere.
Cooper:       Doc, when the will is invoked, the recuperative powers of the
              physical body are simply extraordinary.  Just give me a couple
              of hours to get dressed.

Giant:  It is happening again.  It is happening again.

Hawk:  Good thing you guys can't keep a secret!

Little Man from Another Place:  Llllet'srock!
         [ringing sound, shadow moves across the curtains]
LMFAP:   That gum you liike is goinng to kum bak in styyle.  [looks at Laura]
         Shee's mi couzin.  Butt doesn't she look--almostt exactly--like
         Lowra Powlmer?
Cooper:  But, it is Laura Palmer.  [to Laura:]  Are you Laura Palmer?
Laura:   I feeel liike I knoww her, but sumtimes mi arrms bendback.
LMFAP:   Shee's filled with segrets.  Where we're from, the birds zing a
         happy zong, and therre's always muzic intheair.

Gordon:  I BELIEVE IN SECRECY, COOP!

Truman:  You know, you are the best lawman I have ever seen.  But Coop, some-
         times you think too much.
Cooper:  Thanks, Harry.

Jerry:  It's a baguette... with brie, and butter... I had six of these damn
things every day I was over there!

Truman:  Lucy, you better bring Agent Cooper up to date.
Lucy:    Leo Johnson was shot, Jacques Renault was strangled, the mill burned,
         Shelley and Pete got smoke inhalation, Catherine and Josie are
         missing, Nadine is in a coma from taking sleeping pills.
Cooper:  How long have I been out?
Truman:  Six hours.

Chief Icelander:  Ben, I am so happy, I can't even tell you how much.

Lucy:  Agent Cooper, I've got a call for you from a Mr. Albert Rosenfeld,
sounds like long distance.  It has that open air sound, you know, where it
sounds like wind blowing... like wind blowing through trees....

Log Lady:  We don't know what will happen, or when.  But there are owls at
           the Roadhouse.
Cooper:    The Roadhouse.  Something is happening, isn't it, Margaret?
Log Lady:  Yes.

Albert:  I've got compassion running out of my nose, pal--I'm the sultan of
sentiment!

Windom Earle:  Of course, you couldn't help but take note of my emphatically
traditional opening.  I must say, your responding move was nothing if not
reflective of your predilection for the tidy and fastidious.  See how my
response to you begins to lead us towards a classical confrontation?  But
there's doubt in your mind: what are my true intentions?  How will you answer
this time?  Hobgoblins, Dale... consistency... predictability, giving rise to
patterns.  We both know only too well how these patterns leave you vulnerable
to attack.  You with your wounds, I with mine, let me paint you a picture:  my
knights will skirmish, lanes of power and influence will open through my
bishops and rooks, pawns will naturally be forfeit.  I'm even prepared to
sacrifice my queen because, I assure you, dear Dale, my goal will be attained
at any cost; the king must die!

Truman:  So, you leaving?
Cooper:  Going fishing with the Major.
Truman:  That's why I figure you're gonna be needing this.
         [hands Cooper a bag, Cooper opens it and finds a lure]
Cooper:  Whoo.  Harry, this is unbelievable!
Truman:  Yeah.  Now, when those steelhead are running upstream, there's only
         one thing they're thinking about:  sex.  A green butt skunk breaks
         their concentration.
Cooper:  A green butt skunk!

Ed:  Nadine, don't you give up.  We'll just have to keep looking until we find
a patent attorney who understands drape runners.

Cooper:  Sheriff, we got a lot to talk about.

Jerry:  I'm in love... her name is Heppa... she's a giant snow queen with a
smile like a sunrise on an ice floe--you could go blind just _looking_ at this
girl!

Bobby:   That's the second time you've saved my bacon today, Audrey.  We're
         talking sainthood here.  Is there anything I can do for you?
Audrey:  How about... an ice cream?
Bobby:   Cup, or cone?
Audrey:  Cone.  I like to lick.

Cooper:  There's a large group of insane men staying on my floor.

Mrs. Tremond:  I requested no creamed corn.  Do you see creamed corn on this
plate?

Cooper (to Jacoby):  You are standing on a smooth green carpet of grass.  The
         ball is 15 feet from the hole.  Beyond the green two pristine white
         sand-traps and a lily-filled pond yawn out towards the emerald
         fairway.  The hole seems to slowly drift away... across the green,
         towards the pond, carried by the summer wind.  Harry!
Truman (shakes himself):  Oh, um.
Cooper:  The green grows larger and larger... the green engulfs you, envelops
         you in a soft blanket of peace.  You stroke the ball, it drifts
         towards the hole and gently drops into its center.  Do you hear me,
         Dr. Jacoby?

Pete:  Catherine????  You look terrible!  Just... terrible!!  Just TERRIBLE!!!

Ben:  Now let's get in there and get those cheese-eaters where they live.

Cooper:    What did your log see?
Log Lady:  Tea first.  Then be ready.

Judge Sternwood:  The woods are wondrous here, but strange.

Cooper:  Diane, it struck me again earlier this morning:  there are two things
that continue to trouble me, and I am speaking now not only as an agent of
the Bureau but also as a human being.  What really went on between Marilyn
Monroe and the Kennedys, and who really pulled the trigger on JFK?

Nadine:  I am so happy, Eddie, I could just kiss you to death!
Big Ed:  Oh, boy, Nadine.

Albert:  Mr. Horne, I recognize that your position in this fair community
pretty much guarantees venality, insincerity, and a rather irritating
manner of expressing yourself.  Stupidity, however, is not a necessarily
inherent trait.  Therefore, please listen closely--You can have a funeral any
old time.  You dig a hole, you plant a coffin.  I, however, cannot perform
these tests next year, next month, next week or even tomorrow--I must perform
them now.  <drill noise--VEEP VEEP!>  I've got a lot of cutting and pasting to
do, gentlemen, so please return to your porch rockers and resume whittling!
[Puts drill to Laura's forehead and starts drilling....]

Jerry:  Is this real, Ben?  Or just some strange and twisted dream?

Andy:         I've been wearing boxer shorts like you told me to.
Doc Hayward:  You want to give it another shot?

Harold:  Are you looking for secrets?  Is that what this is all about?  Well,
maybe I can help you.  Do you know what the ultimate secret is?  Do you want
to know?  Laura did.
The secret of knowing who killed you---

Ben:  Jerry?  Please kill Leland.

Cooper:  At a time like this, curiously, you begin to think of the things you
regret, or the things you might miss.  I would like in general to treat people
with much more care and respect.  I would like to climb a tall hill, but not
too tall, sit in the cool grass, but not too cool, and feel the sun on my face.
I wish I could have cracked the Lindbergh kidnapping case.  I would very much
like to make love to a beautiful woman who I had a genuine affection for.  And
of course it goes without saying that I would like to visit Tibet.  I wish that
the Tibetan government would allow the Dalai Lama to return to his native land.
Oh, I would like that very much.

Gordon:  WE'VE GOT A DIFFERENT PROBLEM HERE, COOP.  TWO PLUS TWO DOES NOT 
ALWAYS EQUAL FOUR!

Log Lady:  Shut your eyes and you'll burst into flames.
Truman:    Thanks, Margaret.

Cooper:  Twenty-four hour room service must be one of the premier achievements
of modern civilization.

James:  Would you like to play with fire, little boy?  Would you like to play
with BOB?  Would you like to play with _BOB_?

Pie-Eating Man:  Hot DAMN, that's good pie!

Albert:  Sounds like you've been snacking on some of the local mushrooms.

Cooper:  You have the right to remain silent.  Anything you say may be used
         against you in a court of law.  You have the right to an attorney.
BOB:     Hee hee hee!  Oh, I suppose you want to ask him some questions.
Cooper:  Did you kill Laura Palmer?
BOB:     WHOOOO!  WHOOOO!  WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOOO!!  That's a yes.
Cooper:  Did you kill Madeleine Ferguson?
BOB:     What do you think?
Cooper:  I'm asking you.
BOB:     No, what do you think?
Cooper:  That's not the question.
BOB:     Oh, gosh, oh, well, oh, gee!  I guess I kinda sorta did... I've got
         this thing for knives... just like what happened to you in PITTSBURGH
         that time, right, Cooper??  Oh, Leland, Leland, Leland... you've been
         a good vehicle, but you're getting old... weak... it's almost time to
         shuffle off to Buffalo!!
Cooper:  Does Leland know what you've done?
BOB:     Ah, Leland's a babe in the woods... with a large hole... where his
         conscience used to be.  But when I go, boys and girls, I will pull
         that ripcord--and you watch Leland remember!!  Watch him!  But not for
         long....  WHOO!  WHOO!
Truman:  That's good enough for me.

Pierre Tremond:  J'ai une ame solitaire.  [I have a solitary soul.]

Bobby:  Good thing we didn't light the candles!

Cooper:  Who's the lady with the log?
Truman:  Oh, we call her the Log Lady.

Ben:  Temporary insanity, Leland?  Hopefully, some of these people will be on
your jury.  You will be home free.

Cooper:  Harry, I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.  Every day, once a
day, give yourself a present.  Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just... let
it happen.  Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office
chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee.

Leland:  Sing hallelujah, c'mon, get happy--c'mon & chase all your blues away!

Hawk:    Cooper, you may be fearless in this world, but there are other worlds.
Cooper:  Tell me more.
Hawk:    My people believe that the White Lodge is a place where the spirits
         that rule man and nature here reside.
Truman:  Local legend.  Goes way back.
Hawk:    There is also a legend of a place called the Black Lodge... the
         shadow-self of the White Lodge.  The legend says that every spirit
         must pass through there on the way to perfection.  There, you will
         meet your own shadow-self. My people call it "The Dweller on the
         Threshold." 
Cooper: "The Dweller on the Threshold..."
Hawk:    But it is said, if you confront the Black Lodge with imperfect
 courage, it will utterly annihilate your soul.

Albert:  Has anyone seen BOB on earth in the past few weeks?

Cooper:  Harry, the last thing I want you to worry about while I'm here is some
city slicker I brought into your town relieving himself upstream.

Truman:  You must have the metabolism of a bumblebee!

Mike:  In the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see.  One chants
       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, and it _sounds_!  I too was touched by the devilish one--
       tattoo on the left shoulder.  Ah, but when I saw the face of God, I was
       changed.  Took the entire arm off.  My name is Mike... HIS name is BOB.
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_!

Leland:  He would say, "Would you like to play with fire, little boy?"
         [flicks burning match at Cooper, Cooper picks it up and looks at it]
Cooper:  That's our man.  <Poof!>

Senor Droolcup:  How ya doin' down there?

Giant:   I will tell you three things.  If I tell them to you, and they come
         true, then will you believe me?
Cooper:  Who's that?
Giant:   Think of me as a friend.
Cooper:  Where do you come from?
Giant:   The question is, where have you gone?  The first thing I will tell
         you is:  there is a man in a smiling bag.
Cooper:  Man in a smiling bag.
Giant:   The second thing is:  the owls are not what they seem.  The third
         thing is:  without chemicals, he points.
Cooper:  What do these things mean?
Giant:   This is all I'm permitted to say.  Give me your ring.  I will return
         it to you when you find these things to be true.  We want to help you.
Cooper:  Who's "we"?
Giant:   One last thing:  Leo locked inside a hungry horse.  There is a clue at
         Leo's house.  You will require medical attention.

Albert (after Andy boards himself):  And it's another great moment in law
enforcement history.

Shelley:  I don't care about the money.  I don't want Leo home.
Bobby:    Leo is in dream-land.  We can stick him in a corner and hang donuts
          from his ears.

Leland:  Mares eat oats, and does eat oats, and little lambs eat ivy... a
kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?

Cooper:  This must be where pies go when they die.

Truman:  Anything we should be working on?
Albert:  Yeah, try not dragging your knuckles on the ground when you walk!

Cooper:  Can I ask her about her log?
Truman:  Many have.

Albert:  I know, Andy, I know.  It's what we call a three-hanky crime.

Andy:  I want to talk about my child--our baby.
Lucy:  Maybe.
Andy:  Maybe what?
Lucy:  Maybe it is our baby and maybe it isn't!
Andy:  DICK?!  My lord, is HE the father?
Lucy:  At first I thought _you_ were the father!  But then you said you didn't
       have any _sperms_!  Then I thought it was Dick, but now you say your
       sperms are _back_!  So as far as I can tell it's a fifty-fifty propo-
       sition!

Pete:  She's dead... wrapped in plastic!

Gordon:  GOT SOME ADVICE FOR YOU, COOP:  LET A SMILE BE YOUR UMBRELLA!

Cooper:  DAMN good coffee, and HOT!

Albert:  Oh yeah?  Well, I've had about enough of morons and halfwits, dolts,
dunces, dullards and dumbbells--and you chowderhead yokel, you blithering
hayseed, you--you've had enough of me?

Jerry:  Is there any sign of her?  Bones?  Teeth?

Cooper:  Short stack of griddle cakes, maple syrup slightly heated, melted
butter, slice of ham... nothing beats the taste sensation when maple syrup
<CLAP> collides with ham.

Judge Sternwood:  Life is hard, dear.  Still, it's harder in most places than
in Twin Peaks.

Cooper:  Diane, it's 11:55 pm, approximately 19 hours since the shooting
incident which nearly caused me to make a premature purchase of the proverbial
farm.

Log Lady:  You wear shiny objects on your chest.
Major:     Yes, I do.
Log Lady:  Are you proud?
Major:     No, achievement is its own reward.  Pride obscures it.  Cream?

Cooper:  Where does BOB come from?
Mike:    That cannot be revealed.

BOB:  Leland says you're going back to MISSOULA, MONTANAAA!!!  <CRASH!!!!>

Mrs. Briggs:  We're here for you, Bobby!

Gwen:  The first time I nursed my baby I just sort of held him like this, you
know, and I looked down at him to see what kind of a tiny creature I was 
dealing with, and the first thing that popped into my mind was, "Just what the
world needs.  Another potential sperm gun running around."

Ben:  Nice touch, Leo.  Bright red sports car for a secret meeting.  Nice.

Hawk:  That's a nice color for him.

Major:   Have you ever heard of the... White Lodge?
Cooper:  The White Lodge.  No, I don't believe I have.
         [Cooper stands up and smiles.]
Cooper:  Major, I'm gonna take a moment here; I feel the call of nature.
         There's nothing quite like urinating out in the open air.  I look
         forward to hearing more about this... White Lodge, when I return
         from my journey.
Major:   Ha ha!
         [Owl hoots, Major cocks his head and listens]
         [Cooper is taking care of business when an owl hoots above him.
          Suddenly, a blinding white light appears from beyond the campfire!
          A semi-human silhouette appears at its center--]
Major:   Cooper!  COOPER!!!
Cooper:  Major Briggs?  Major?!!
         [Cooper runs back to the campfire, finding no one--he runs towards
          the light--we see something running up a gully--Cooper reaches the
          top of the dip--and stares and stares as the light goes out....]

Jerry:  Clearly, this man's stairs do not reach the attic!

Cooper:  And as we all know from experiments conducted during the Korean War,
Diane, sleep deprivation is a one-way ticket to temporary psychosis.

Cooper:  Harry, my dream is a code waiting to be broken.  Break the code, solve
         the crime.
Lucy (taking notes):  Break the... code, solve the... crime.

Jerry:  Next stop:  Rocket Science!!!!

Log Lady:  Come then!  My log does not judge!

Bobby:  Bills?  Forget about bills.  I'm talking about a new way of life.

BOB:     IN THE DARKNESS OF FUTURE PAST, THE MAGICIAN LONGS TO SEE!  ONE
         CHANTS OUT BETWEEN TWO WORLDS...  _FIRE,_WALK_WITH_ME_!!!
         [Truman looks at Cooper and shakes his head, and they all go up the
          stairs, Cooper last... when suddenly water explodes from the
          sprinklers!  Cooper turns in confusion as BOB roars in his cell...
          then BOB runs at the door and hits it with a sickening thud!]
Cooper:  Harry!  HARRY!!
         [Truman, Albert, and Hawk come running back down the stairs, and they
          all burst into the room to find Leland prone on the floor.  Cooper
          hurries to Leland and holds him in his arms.]
Cooper:  Call an ambulance!
         [Hawk runs upstairs.  Leland is crying hysterically.]
Leland:  Oh God!  Laura!  I killed her!  Oh my God, I killed my daughter!
         I didn't know... forgive me... Oh God!  I was just a boy... I saw
         him in my dream... he said he wanted to play... he opened me, and I
         invited him, and he came inside me!  When he was in me, I didn't
         know... and when he was gone, I couldn't remember!  Made me do things
         --terrible things... he said he wanted lives... he wanted others,
         others that they could use... like they used _me_!!
Cooper:  Like Laura.
Leland:  They wanted her... but she was strong!  She fought 'em!  She wouldn't
         let 'em in!  Oh God!  They had me kill that girl Theresa!  And they
         said if I didn't give 'em Laura, they'd have me kill her... too!
Cooper:  But she wouldn't let them in.
Leland:  She said she'd die before she'd let them... so they made me kill her!
         Oh, God, have mercy on me!  What have I done!  What have I done!  Oh,
         God!  _I_love_her_!!  I love her, with all my heart!  My angel,
         forgive me....
         [Harry, Albert, and Hawk move back to the door, leaving Cooper with
          Leland cradled in his arms.]
Cooper:  Leland.  Leland, the time has come for you to seek the path.  Your
         soul has set you face to face with the clear light and you are about
         to experience it in its reality, wherein all things are like the void
         and cloudless sky and the naked spotless intellect is like a trans-
         parent vacuum without circumference or center.  Leland, in this
         moment, know yourself, and abide in that state.  Look to the light,
         Leland, find the light.
         [Leland's face is transfigured by joy....]
Leland:  I see it!
Cooper:  Into the light, Leland, into the light.
Leland:  I see... her!  She's... there!
Cooper:  Into the light, Leland.
Leland:  She's beautiful!
Cooper:  Into the light....     
Leland:  Laura!
Cooper:  Don't be afraid....
         [Leland suddenly stares, looking into the other world, and sags in
          Cooper's arms.  Cooper, dripping water, weeps....]

Perhaps to make up for the sin of screwing up the technical industry.

Apple Computer is actively engaged in a lawsuit that would further restrict
the freedom to write software. Known as "Look and Feel", this bogus
notion is the enemy of standardization.

Please boycott all Apple products until they discontinue this practice.

APPLE IS POSSESSED BY BOB!
-- Root Boy Jim Cottrell <rbj@uunet.uu.net> Close the gap of the dark year in between

Last night (Tuesday 8th January), the BBC here in the UK started
showing the second series of Twin Peaks with the screening of the
90 minute Lynch-directed first episode. This followed on from the
last episode of the first series which was shown just before
Christmas.

What I'd like to know is, just how far ahead (Twin Peaks-wise) are
you over there in the States?

Also, what happened to Bobby's friend Mike (with the red hair) who
seemed to disappear after the first few episodes?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

I will boycott Apple products as soon as someone else produces a
desktop computer that's as useful as a Mac.

Meanwhile, please list the products that you would like to have used,
but which were not available because of Apple's current lawsuit.

I'd recommend Lindt chocolate bunnies if you can get Swiss chocolates in the

Oh, I see!  And standardization on the IBM Mainframe standard has saved the
industry, right?  Been a LOT of progress there in the past ten years, I can
tell ya...Remember to also boycott LOTUS for protecting their intellectual 
property (wouldn't want that freedom to write software infringed upon!).  But

IT BELONGS.

TWIN PEAKS 
FREQUENTLY ANSWERED QUESTIONS
Last revision: 1/9/91

(Many of these concern what various people said.  Many thanks to Bart
J. Geraci, the man with the closed caption decoder.)

WARNING: This article may contain references to any episode up to and
including the most recent one shown in the U.S.  

New or changed lines begin with #.

#Meta-question #0:  Why should we accept the closed captions as
#authoritative?  Don't the people who enter the captions just
#type what *they* hear?  
#--The closed captions for most pre-recorded network shows that have
#them are created from scripts.  Despite all the script-secrecy
#surrounding Twin Peaks, it is reasonable to assume that TP's
#captions are created the same way.

1. What's this "secret diary" that everybody keeps referring to?  
--_The Secret Diary of Laura Palmer_ was written by Jennifer Lynch
(David's daughter), and is published in the U.S by Pocket
Books, and in the U.K. by Penguin Books.  It's supposed to be the
text of the diary that was discovered in the second season of
the show.  

2. a) What language was the little boy with the creamed corn speaking?
-- French
   b) What did he say?
-- J'ai une ame solitaire: I have a solitary soul.  (This is according
to the closed captions, so we don't want to know what your
friend who had three years of French thought it was.)
   c) Didn't he look an awful lot like David Lynch?
-- Yes, that's because he's Austin Jack Lynch, David Lynch's son.
   (For handy reference, look at Gordon Cole (Cooper's boss): he's played
   by David Lynch.)

3. What was that ditty Leland was singing, and what does it mean?
-- The full lyrics of the song are:

Mairzy doats and dozy doats
and little lambzy divy.
A kiddly divy, too, wooden shoe?

Now if the words sounds queer,
and funny to your ear,
a little bit jumbled and jivy,
Sing:

Mares eat oats and does eats oats
and little lambs eat ivy.
A kid'll eat ivy, too, wouldn't you?

   If necessary, go look up "mare," "doe" and "kid" in the dictionary.

4. Wasn't the Giant also on Star Trek: The Next Generation?
-- Yes, he is Carel Struycken, who played Mr. Homm.  No, he did not
play Lurch on the Adams Family (although it has been reported
that he will play Lurch in an upcoming AF movie).

5. Who was standing outside the window while Josie was seducing Harry?
-- The majority of posters believe it was the Mysterious Asian
Gentleman, also known as "Jonathan", Josie's "cousin" from
Hong Kong.  Those who have suggested other people are pushing it.

6. What were the three predictions that the giant made to Cooper?
-- a man in a smiling bag
   the owls are not what they seem
   without chemicals, he points

   The giant also said something about "Leo locked in a hungry horse,"
and that there was a clue at Leo's house.  However, these were
not the "predictions" which will be fulfilled before Cooper
gets his ring back.  The former refers to the fact that Leo
was in jail in Hungry Horse, Montana when Theresa Banks was
killed, and the latter refers to the Circle Brand boots that
were found with the cocaine at Leo's house.

7. Has anybody mentioned the possible connection between:
   * BOB and J. R. "Bob" Dobbs of the Church of the Subgenius?
   * All the donuts they eat on Twin Peaks, and JFK's "Ich bin ein
Berliner" speech?  What he literally said was "I am a jelly
donut." 
   * Agent Dale Cooper and D.B. Cooper, the guy who hijacked a plane
and then parachuted over Washington State with a whole bunch
of money and was never found?  
   * Ben and Jerry Horne and Ben and Jerry's brand ice cream (in one
scene the brothers Horne are even shown eating ice cream)?
   * Sarah's vision of a white horse and Mr. Ed?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  Laura' pony, Troy?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  Death, which "rides a pale
 horse"?
   *   "       "    "  "   "    "     "  heroin, also known as "white
 horse" (maybe Leland/BOB shot
 her up with heroin)?
-- Yes for all of the above.

8. What was the poem that "Mike" recited in Cooper's dream, and later
at the police station?
-- "Through the darkness of future past
    the magician longs to see
    one chants out between two worlds
    'Fire walk with me.'"

   (There has been much debate over whether the second-to-last line is
"one chants out" or "one chance out".  The closed captions
indicate "chants".)  

9. How were the funny voices in the dream sequence done?  
-- Before shooting the scene, the actors were recorded reading their
lines.  The recording was then played to them backwards, and
they memorized how to imitate it.  Each shot in the scene was
acted in reverse order, with the actors saying their
"backwards" lines.  The film was then reversed so that the
actions came out in the right order, and the words came out
double-reversed.  Unfortunately, the words weren't very
intelligible, so subtitles were added.

10. What year is the show set in?
-- References in the first season placed it in 1989.  However, _The
Secret Diary of Laura Palmer_ places the action in 1990.
Sources on the production team (i.e., Scott Frost) indicate
that it's been sort of miraculously moved up to 1990.
Apparently, the producers and directors have trouble keeping
track of what day it's supposed to be in Twin Peaks, never
mind what year.

11. Maddy notices a burning smell just before she's attacked by
Leland/BOB.  Didn't Jacoby say he smelled burned oil in the
hospital when Jacques was killed?  Does this mean that Leland
was BOB when he killed Jacques?
-- No.  Later, under hypnosis, Jacoby corrected himself and said that
he smelled the burned smell just before he was attacked at the
gazebo, but not at the hospital.  However, this does leave
open the possibility that Jacoby was attacked by BOB.

12. a) Where is Twin Peaks supposed to be? 
-- It's in the State of Washington, but where exactly is not clear.
In Cooper's initial monolog to Diane as he's driving into
town, he states that it's five miles south of the Canadian
border and twelve miles west of the state line.  That would
seem to place it in the northeast corner of the state.
However the surrounding geography is like that of the Cascade
Mountains in western WA.  References to cities such as Seattle
and Tacoma, but not Spokane, also seem to place it in western
WA.  The show's creators seem to have smooshed the state so
that it all fits west of the Cascades.  

Many of the outdoor shots were filmed in Squonalmie, WA,
which is in the Cascades, not too far from Seattle.  The
waterfall is there; the Great Northern Hotel is really the
Salish Lodge; and the RR Diner is really the Mar-T Diner,
which really does have heavenly cherry pies.

    b) How big a town is Twin Peaks?
-- Again, that's not exactly clear.  The population sign that's shown
at station breaks and on the Twin Peaks sound track indicates
51,201.  However cues in the show seem to indicate that it's
much much smaller than that.  For instance, it doesn't have a
resident circuit court judge, which any town of 51K+ in the
U.S. would; it has a sheriff's department but no police
department.  On the other hand, it does have its own hospital,
a fancy department store, and a large hotel.  It seems the
creators haven't worried too much about being consistent on
this point.

13. Has anybody noticed that Julee Cruise's "Floating Into The Night"
album gives special thanks to, among other people, Bob (no
last name)? 
-- Yes.

14. Is the first season two-hour pilot considered the first episode,
or is the first one-hour show the first episode?  Do the
episodes have names?  What the best way of referring to
episodes?
-- The episodes are not named.  Whether it's the best way or not,
Lynch/Frost number the episodes with four-digit numbers, where
the first digit is the season number, and the others are the
order within that season.  This system was apparently adopted
after the pilot was produced, so the pilot is 1000, the first
one-hour episode is 1001, and so on.  However for the second
season, the two-hour season premiere is 2001. 

15. Can a person's hair really turn white "over night" like Leland's
did between the first and second seasons?  
--Generally, only folklore supports this ("it happened to a friend of
a friend of mine").  Since hair above the scalp is dead
matter, it can't change color without dyes or bleaches.  It's
possible that a person with mixed gray and dark hair could
lose all their older, darker hair over a short period of time
(a few days or weeks) due to a physical or psychological
trauma, which would leave them with just gray hair.  Or a
dark-haired person might lose all their dark hairs and grow in
gray ones over a similar span of time, but "over night" seems
physically implausible.

NO CUTE QUOTES TODAY.

I caught most of Larry King interviewing Miguel Ferrer (Albert Rosenfield)
on King's late night radio show on 8-JAN.  Much of the discussion centered
on Twin Peaks, but Ferrer never revealed any really juicy or previously
unknown tidbits.  The most memorable points were:

- He believes that TP will be back for a third season (of course, maybe
he just said that to appease TP fans who were listening).
- He said that all the actors/actresses feel that they have special roles,
and that there is no really major star on the show and that everyone
really enjoys working for Lynch/Frost.
- He said that he will be on the show from time to time, and that he does
NOT know if BOB will be back, but he suspects that BOB will be back.
- He acknowledged the low ratings, but reiterated what TP producers and
ABC officials have said, and that is that TP is intensely and loyally
followed by fairly intelligent, middle and upper income people, and that
most of them are not home when they tape the show, thus resulting in
relatively poor ratings.
- He said that the actors/actresses have been shredding their scripts after
every shooting session because obscessed fans have been going through the
garbage at the studios looking at scripts.
- He said that many scenes are shot, and the actors/actresses usually do
not know which scenes will be aired.

All in all, a fairly interesting interview.  However, King was his usual
self in that he constantly fawned over the interviewee, and even admitted
that he rarely saw an episode.

A couple weeks back I was listening to the Oklahoma soundtrack, and I noticed
that the "Surrey with the fringe on top" is pulled by two white horses, one
the color of snow, the other the color of milk.

   Quoted from _Strong Coffee_, a Chicago coffee-house art-article-poetry
newsletter:

    One of the endearing qualities of the FBI agent played by Kyle
     MacLachlan on the television series "Twin Peaks" is his now-
    famous sincerely-expressed appreciation of good coffee.  Kyle was
    in Chicago last month with co-star (and forer Evanstonian) Lara
    Flynn Boyle.  He spent several hours at Scenes Coffeehouse and 
    Dramatist Bookstore.  Kyle's verdict on the house coffee?  It's
    "mighty good."

In a rather tangential note, I note that Strong Coffee has a continuing
column called "The Teachings of Baba Java: Path to Coffee Consciousness."
It includes a distinctly Buddhist guru tutoring the adept in the ways
and lore of caffienated enlightenment.  I reproduce some of it here, 
knowing that Coop would surely approve:

    Path to Coffee Consciousness, by Kastanya Kaphinada

LESSON TWO: A Separate Reality

  I had been sitting in a North Side coffeehouse for a couple of hours,
when I felt a distinct change in the shop's collective mood.  Someone was
soliciting donations.  No matter.  The coffee meditation techniques taught
me by Baba Java, Coffee Sage, allowed me to shut off all kinds of annoyances,
such as the bizarre political superstitions being discussed at the next 
table.  I did take the precaution, however, of downing my twenty-fourth
cup of coffee-- the one hundred and twelfth step in the complex ancient
ritual known as "Thirty-Cup Eye-Cycle."  As instructed, I held myself very
still and watched the world vibrate relative to my caffeine-steadied hand.
Good.  The velocity was increasing.  Very soon the power of caffeine would
blur out the reality we so blithley accept, and bring me to the realm of the
Bean Warrior.

[Baba Java arrives in the guise of a woman dressed in a blue spandex suit,
who is soliciting donations for a lesbian separatist community.  Our 
protagonist knows that this is truly Baba Java.  Baba tells the following
parable:}

  There once was a coffee sage named Heer Ortego who had two disciples.
The first disciple asks,

   "Honorable Heer, is it not better to drink coffee and meditate in a
coffee house where the stimulus of other's stimulation may enhance one's
vision?"

The second discplie asks:
       
    "Honorable Heer, is it not better to drink coffee and meditate in 
private, so that the stimulus of other's stimulation may not pollute
one's vision?"

  At these questions, Heer Ortego became very wroth and slew both 
disciples and made their skulls into coffee mugs.

[Our protagonist considers the parable and suggests that Heer must have
been served decaf with imitation non-dairy creamer before the incident.]

  I tried the obvvious:  "Is it because one can drink coffee anywhere and
still have the same insights?"
 "No," said Baba with a disgusted look.  "It is because one must drink
coffee somewhere, whether one has insights or not!"

following this tangent i am reminded of james blaylock's description of
the riverboat coffee in _the case of the disappearing dwarf_.  (i
belive that's the one.)  although i don't usually drink coffee that
description (which, if i had the book handy, i'd type in) certainly made
me crave a cup of joe.  i wonder if lynch has seen that particular
paean to the bean.

-- pjg@acsu.buffalo.edu / rutgers!ub!pjg / pjg@ubvms (Bitnet) opinions found above are mine unless marked otherwise.

Just submitting my .02 re WE's reference to sacrificing his queen.

My immediate thought was that WE was referring to Pittsburg (?)
and Cooper's confrontation there.  We know that Cooper lost the women
he loved and maybe it was because he was afraid to make sacrifices
thereby leaving him vulnerable to attack.

I haven't played chess in years but I vaguely remember that a good
player never feared losing the queen and it was a sign of
of weakness if a player could not function with out it.  If
your oponent was fearful of losing the queen you attacked it first
or if confident in its effectiveness sacrifice your queen to intimidate
the other player.

I think WE was using this ploy to point to Cooper's weakness
of protecting others even if it means losing the game (look at
where rescuing Audrey got him - even though the mission was successful
he ended up suspended from duty and facing prosecution.  I don't
think WE would have made those sacrifices).

In another vein, I hope after this long hiatus this week's episode
provides plenty of  entertainment and food for thought.

and i'm sure agent cooper would recommend valrhona. i just had a square
with 66% cocoa solids (and that ain't the highest concentration).
of course, that is if you can get french chocolate in the u.s.:-)

we just had the first episode of series 2 here. 

interesting in parts but TURGID and annoying at times. 14 minutes for
the dopey old guy to give cooper his milk and vanish was a bit much.
i'm sure lynch was just having a laugh with the devotees.
"so you think this is great, well tell me what 14 minutes of painfully
slow drama means. so you didn't like all the action at the end of series
one. well, this is what it's like at the other extreme."

and a question. is tp shot on film or tape. it looks like tape to me.
someone must *know* on this newsgroup.

"What do I care what your up to with your American Friend."

Actually, the White Lodge appears in some *real* mystic traditions as well.
I'm afraid I can't supply much information, because I don't know that much
about it.  Some people, I'm told, believe that it's Sirius.

A very few (I hope!) people have taken it out of the original mystical
context and put it into an extraterrestrial/"extradimensional" one.  They
say that Shamballah doesn't exist on Earth, but the gateway to it does.  If
you should ever find the "O. H. Krill" papers on a UFO-oriented BBS, read
them and find out what the connection is between the White Lodge, Sirius,
and the Men In Black.

If it's the same teaser I saw, I believe someone in the teaser said that Dougie
was the dead man (I belive Dougie is either the mayor of TP or the mayor's 
buddy)...something was said about his newfound sex life being too much for
him (he just got married)...another interesting bit was Cooper saying some
thing to Audrey to the effect that she probably saved his life....hmmmm.....

just a quick note... the TP gif files are still at umich... here's a repost of an article
i posted last dec.   I haven't had any time to make any new pictures, but well have to see
what i get into this jan...

--------------previous article reposted below--------------------
    I have been having a great time with the computer pictures of twin
peaks scenes, and have been receiving a lot of support.  I get 
approximately 15-20 pieces of e-mail a day regarding the pictures.  
Much of this is thanks for doing it, or requests for help instead.  
Here's some answers to some commonly asked  questions about the pictures.

The pictures are available from freebie.engin.umich.edu (141.212.68.23)
via anonymous ftp in the directory /pub/twin-peaks.
To get them, you have to have ftp available at your site.  It goes 
something like this:
type:
> >ftp freebie.engin.umich.edu  (<<<the numbers can be substituted for this..)
it will reply something that may be like:
> >Connected to freebie.engin.umich.edu.
> >220 freebie FTP server (Ultrix Version 4.10 Mon Nov 7 15:52:11 EST 1988) >ready.Name (freebie.engin.umich.edu:your-username):

> >ftp>
type cd /pub/twin-peaks
> >ftp> cd /pub/twin-peaks
> >250 CWD command successful.
> >ftp>
type ls (or dir)
this will give you a listing of that directory...
type get README to start
type binary (or tenex) to make sure they are transferred correctly...
use cd to change directory to where the files actually are
mget *.gif can be used to get more than one file
when you are done type close and then quit
type ctrl-c to abort a command...
.. if you have trouble.. find someone else who knows what they are doing...


I have also had a lot of requests to mail/post the files, because many 
of you dont have ftp access.  Unfortunately, I don't have time to do this.
Perhaps someone else on the net may volunteer????... please?...
this involved uuencodeing as well as splitting it up...

as for viewers... i really don't know.. i picked .gif becuase that seemed
to be the most common format.. it's not easy to convert them to gif...
but they are of little use to anyone unconverted.  They are in 24 bit 
color, but in a strange format resulting from Parallax video graphics 
boards.  I use various programs on athena ( a unix system with both 
ibm rt's and dec vax's...as well as a few others tossed in...)  including
xloadimage.. which i understand is available.. along with many others..
i use cshow (compuserve's show) for my ibm and it works pretty well...
there are viewers for macs as well..  ask around, find someone who knows
what they are talking about ( i certainly don't)...

as for specific pictures.. i have had a lot of requests... however...
i have to then find someone with a vcr that i can lug down to the 
computer room with the computers that can save pictures.  I think we'll
also start to lose even more quality then.. but i'm not sure... right
now i save them as i watch it...

I have no idea how long the files can stay at this site, so i'd advise you
to get them and save them, because they are liable to disappear.. 
I have almost no disk storage of my own and hanging on to all this
information (over 3meg compressed as far as i can get it...) has been 
quite a battle.. and i think i'm losing... 

the following are in the directory /pub/twin-peaks/11-10-90
these are from the 11-10-90 episode..
as of 11-25-90 they were all redone.. so take another
look..

be sure to download them in binary format...
read the README file becuase i update it regularly...

Someone else also has been able to put the mac sound files up there.. but
i don't know much about them.. so maybe someone can e-mail me that info..
(i have access to a mac.. but i'd like to see some source of the remac 
program or some other way to run them on an IBM...).. 

Well... due to a lot of reasons.. 99.9% of them being completely personal..
(such as having end of term and finals coming up.. among other things...)
i am going to put this project away for the time being.  Come january, 
i'll have to see, but i might be able to do a little more work with this.

   Thanks for everyone's support, and i apologize for not answering
everyone's e-mailed questions.  Let's hope i can get back to this.

              HAVE A DAY

The 8th episode in the second season, ie. TP 2008 (the premiere being TP
2001), in which WKLP is revealedi, was shown on US TV on November 17, 1990.

We saw the second season premiere, ie. TP 2001, on Tuesday January 8, 1991,
which means that baring pre-emptions (which are not that common on UK TV) we
should see TP 2008 on Tuesday February 26, 1991, in which case we would be
(excluding any new US pre-emptions) approximately 3 months behind the US.

#Meta-question #0:  Why should we accept the closed captions as
#authoritative?  Don't the people who enter the captions just
#type what *they* hear?  
#--The closed captions for most pre-recorded network shows that have
#them are created from scripts.  Despite all the script-secrecy
#surrounding Twin Peaks, it is reasonable to assume that TP's
#captions are created the same way.

I don't think the BBC subtitles are created from the scripts - I remember 
seeing "Low Town" transcribed as "Lotown".

But they are colo(u)r-coded to help you identify who's speaking.

Is "Jo" (== "Java"?) synonymous with good coffee in the USA? What about
Jamaican Blue Mountain?

      Albert and Truman trade words:
      ALBERT: You listen to me.  While I will admit to a certain cynicism, the
       fact is that I am a nay-sayer and hatchet man in the fight against
       violence.  I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take
       another, because I choose to live my life in the company of Gandhi and
       King.  My concerns are global.  I reject absolutely revenge,
       aggression, and retaliation.  The foundation of such a method...is
       love. I love you, Sheriff Truman.
      COOPER: Albert's path is a strange and difficult one.

      spasms cease. He drops his needle. Mike takes over.

      with Audrey. The Asian Man watches and follows Cooper.
   -- Jean Renault gives Audrey some English caramel
   -- Emory recognizes Cooper on the monitor. Jean and Nancy, Blackie's sister,

   -- Ben meets with Tojamura. Leland sings. Pete chats with Tojamura:
      Pete: The King and I! [to Tojamura] Do you like musicals?
      Tojamura: No.
      Pete: Not even Fiddler on the Roof? Made me weep like a little baby.
      Tojamura: I find adherence to fantasy troubling and unreasonable.
   -- Cooper questions Mike:
      M:  There is no need...for medicine.  I am not in pain.
      C:  Who are you?
      M:  My name is Mike.
      C:  What are you?
      M:  I am...an inhabiting spirit.
      C:  Who is Phillip Gerard?
      M:  He is host to me.
      C:  You spoke to me in my dream...about Bob.
      M:  Mmm.  He...was...my familiar.
      C:  Where does Bob come from?
      M:  That...cannot be revealed.
      C:  What does Bob want?
      M:  He is Bob...eager for fun.  He wears a smile... Everybody run!
          Do you understand the parasite? It attaches itself to a life form and
          feeds.  Eh. Bob requires a human host.  He feeds on fear...and the
          pleasures.  They are his children.  I am similar to Bob.  We once
          were partners.
      M and C in unison:
          Through the darkness of future past,
          The magician longs to see.
      M:  One...chants out, between two worlds,
          Fire...walk with me.
          Oh, but then...I saw the face of God...and was purified.  I took off
          the arm...but remained... close to this vessel, inhabiting from time
          to time, for ONE, SINGLE, PURPOSE.
      C:  To find Bob [produces sketch of Bob].
      M:  TO STOP HIM!  This [points to sketch] is his true face.  But few can
          see it.  The gifted...and the damned!
      C:  Is Bob near us now?
      M:  For nearly forty years.
      C:  Where?
      M:  Ah.  A large house, made of wood, surrounded by trees.  The house is
          filled with many rooms, each alike, but occupied by different souls,
          night after night.
      C:  The Great Northern Hotel!

I had a dream last night that I'd thought I'd share with you.

As it opened I was back in my high school English class. Instead of my original
teacher, I had Robin Williams explaining that Charles Dickens invented the
modern novel. Just as Robin stood up on his desk and started to explain that
"A Tale of Two Cities" was written as a weekly serial in a magazine and made
up as Dickens when along, I was transported 35 years into the future.

The first thing I noticed was the gum I was chewing. It was the kind I liked -
it must have come back into style. As I looked around, I saw that I was now
teaching a class of high school students. I looked at the titles on the
textbooks I saw "Understanding Modern American Video Literature." I watched
myself say "As we were discussing yesterday, Twin Peaks was the first instance
of modern video literature. Now how did Frost/Lynch use fire as a means of
elucidating their theme?". As I said the word elucidate an owl behind me
started chanting "elOOOcidate,elOOOcidate". I turned back to the class and
saw that they had all turned into Leland.

At this point I woke.

Did you notice that one of your foam earplugs was missing?  :-)

Seriously, maybe you should consider moderating your coffee intake.

(Yes, I know I murdered those quotes;  I don't have my TP Quote List (tm)

For those of you who do not have anonymous FTP access, here is a file
telling you how to get files via anonymous FTP through your mail
access.

Basically you send mail to this server, it gets the FTP files and
mails them to you.  What a good deal.  Now you can get all that great
ftp stuff even if your company restricts your access to the net for
security reasons.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
               BITFTP -- Princeton BITNET FTP Server

BITFTP provides a mail interface to the FTP portion of the IBM
TCP/IP product ("FAL") running on the Princeton VM system, to allow
BITNET/NetNorth/EARN users to ftp files from sites on the Internet.

To use BITFTP, send mail containing your ftp commands to BITFTP@PUCC
(or to BITFTP@PUCC.Princeton.edu).

The first command to BITFTP must be "FTP", "FTPLIST", "HELP", or
"VMS".  If you send BITFTP mail or a message containing only the
command "FTPLIST", it will send you a list of some of the hosts that
allow anonymous ftp.  (Note that there is no guarantee that BITFTP
can access all the hosts in that list.)  Use "HELP" to request a
current copy of this help file.  Use "VMS" to request a collection
of tips provided by BITFTP users on how to handle binary files from
BITFTP on VMS systems.

The recommended syntax for FTP requests is:

   FTP hostname NETDATA    --or--    FTP hostname UUENCODE
   USER username password
   <other ftp subcommands>
   QUIT

Following the hostname on the FTP command, you may specify
"UUENCODE" or "NETDATA" to tell BITFTP the format in which you wish
to receive files.

If the username is "anonymous", no password is required; BITFTP will
use your userid and nodeid as the password.  Note that on many
systems passwords are case-sensitive; that is, the password may be
required to be in lower case or mixed case or upper case.  (The same
is true of directory and file names.)

The following is an example of an ftp request:

   FTP  f.ms.uky.edu  NETDATA
   USER  anonymous
   CD  /pub/msdos/Games
   DIR
   BINARY
   GET  robotron.arc  msdos.robotron
   QUIT

BITFTP implements a subset of the ftp subcommands provided in the
IBM TCP/IP and uses the same syntax.  Therefore, you may find it
useful to obtain the "IBM TCP/IP for VM Command Reference Manual",
IBM order number GC09-1204.

The currently supported subcommands are:

  ACCT        -- to send host-dependent account information.
    format:   ACCT account-information

  ASCII       -- to change the file transfer type to ASCII.
    format:   ASCII

  BINARY      -- to change the file transfer type to image.
    format:   BINARY <FIXED record-len> <VARIABLE>

  CD          -- to change the working directory.
    format:   CD directory

  CLOSE       -- to disconnect from the foreign host.
    format:   CLOSE

  DIR         -- to get a list of directory entries.
    format:   DIR

  EBCDIC      -- to change the file transfer type to EBCDIC
    format:   EBCDIC

  GET         -- to get a file from the foreign host.
    format:   GET foreignfile <localfile>

              If you specify "localfile", it must be in
              the forms "filename.filetype" or "filename",
              and the filename and filetype may each be no
              more than 8 characters long and may not contain
              periods.

  LOCSTAT     -- to display local status information.
    format:   LOCSTAT

  LS          -- to list the files in a directory.
    format:   LS <name>

  PWD         -- to print the working directory.
    format:   PWD

  QUIT        -- to disconnect from the foreign host.
    format:   QUIT

  STATUS      -- to retrieve status information from a foreign host.
    format:   STATUS <name>

  SYSTEM      -- to get the name of the foreign host's operating
                 system.
    format:   SYSTEM

  TYPE        -- to specify Image, ASCII, or EBCDIC file transfer.
    format:   TYPE <I|A|E>

BITFTP does not provide a PUT capability, and there is no intention
to make it do so in the future.

BITFTP currently accepts requests only via RFC822-format mail, IBM
NOTE-format mail, PROFS-format messages, or files with no headers at
all.  BITFTP currently returns the requested files as NETDATA-format
files or as mail files containing UUENCODED data.  If you specify
"UUENCODE" or "NETDATA" on your "FTP" command, BITFTP will attempt
to use that format.  If you do not specify the format, BITFTP will
attempt to select the appropriate format for your node.

UUENCODED files are broken up into mail files that contain no more
than 50,000 bytes of data.  NETDATA-format files that are larger
than 300,000 bytes are sent in 300,000-byte pieces using the BITSEND
function.  You should be able to receive such files using the BITRCV
function available from your nearest NETSERV.  (If you do not know
how to use NETSERV, ask your local BITNET/EARN/NetNorth Coordinator
for assistance.)  If BITRCV is not available for your system, use
the command you normally use to receive NETDATA-format files and
then concatenate the files in the order shown in the BITRCV control
file to recover the original file.

Users in the UK should note that BITFTP attempts to send
NETDATA-format files through the gateway from EARN into Janet via
the NIFTP facility at Rutherford Lab.  Note that receiving files via
NIFTP requires an overt action on your part.  If you are at a Janet
node and don't know how to use NIFTP, you should ask for assistance
locally.  Alternatively, you can ask BITFTP to send your files
UUENCODED inside mail by specifying the "UUENCODE" option.

If BITFTP sends you a file you cannot read, THE FIRST THING TO DO is
to make sure that you specified ASCII if the file should contain
textual material or that you specified BINARY if the file should
contain binary data, executable programs, tar files, or the like.
VMS users should specify BINARY F 512 and should use RECEIVE/BINARY
to receive the NETDATA-format binary files BITFTP sends them.

If BITFTP sends you a uuencoded file that you cannot uudecode, the
first thing to do is to translate all occurrences of 0x7E in the
file to 0x5E and then try uudecoding again.  (Some gateways are
changing 5Es to 7Es when the files pass through them.)

There are many different flavors of UUENCODE/UUDECODE.  The version
that BITFTP uses puts a "guard character" at the end of each encoded
line.  Most implementations of uudecode know to ignore this
character.  If yours does not, then you should remove the last
character of each line before attempting to uudecode the file.  Note
that the guard character is not always "M"; the short lines at the
end of the file may have some other guard character, rather than
"M".  Whatever that character is, it should be removed (or your
uudecode should be fixed).

When BITFTP is told to transfer a file in FIXED format, such as
"BINARY FIXED 128", it will create a file whose total byte count is
an integral multiple of the record length (128, in this case).  This
means that the last record may be padded to get it to the specified
record length.  In such a case, you may need to use an editor to
shorten the last record so that the total byte count in the file is
correct.  (If the file is uuencoded when you receive it, shorten it
AFTER you have uudecoded it.)

In addition to any files you request, you will also receive a mail
file containing a log of your ftp session.  In that mail file,
entries prefixed by ">" are your original commands; those prefixed
by ">>" are your commands as interpreted by BITFTP and passed to
TCPIP; those prefixed by ">>>" are your commands as interpreted by
TCPIP and passed to the remote host; those prefixed by "<<<" are
messages from the remote host; and those prefixed by ">>>>" are
completion messages from BITFTP.

If BITFTP is unable to connect to the host you specify, it will send
you mail after the first attempt, but will keep trying at intervals
over three days.  The only additional mail file you will receive
will be when the connection is made successfully or when BITFTP
gives up after three days.

The load on BITFTP is often very heavy, and network backlogs are
often so great that it may take several days for a file to get to
you once BITFTP sends it, so please be patient and don't send
multiple requests for the same file.  If your system allows you to
send interactive messages, you can inquire about BITFTP's backlog by
sending the query "How are you?", e.g., on a VM system:

   TELL BITFTP AT PUCC How are you?

Just saw an ad for this Saturday's episode.  Besides showing
the mayor's brother lying dead with his eyes open and the
mayor shouting "She killed him with SEX!"... they show: 
some girl running down the hall out of a room at the Great Northern
in a night gown (it must be the mayor's brother's new wife (and
now widow)) and ...
Cooper telling Audrey that she saved his life and ...
Audrey standing with Cooper and the FBI guy who dresses like a woman
(What's his (or her) name?) and saying "You mean they let
women be agents???" (or something like that).  And the FBI guy
says "Sort of".

The ad starts off by saying "It's been four weeks..." and I thought
to myself "*TELL* me about it!".

I've missed it (the SNL TP spoof) twice now.  I checked Denver local 
AT&T newsgroups to see if anyone had taped it and would loan it to me,
but all I got was replies from other folks who missed it too and want
to get a copy as well.  Does anyone out there have a VHS tape of it?
I'll pay your mailing costs and promise to take good care of it while
I'm copying it if you'll loan it to me for a couple of days.  

Thanks,

This morning I successfully fooled around a bit with
the audio file where Cooper says "DAMN good coffee -- and
hot!".  Some of you might have fun doing the same thing.

With just a bit of futzing in emacs, you can cut it down
to just say "DAMN!".  Then you invade someone else's
machine via the local area net and play it back, so that
without obvious provocation their machine starts exclaiming
at them.

Some variations on this should be fun for April 1.

I don't know about Sherilyn Fenn, but there is a collection of GIFs scanned 
from an NTSC source available in freebie.umich.engin.edu. The path is
/pub/twin-peaks followed by the date of the episode aired.

Enjoy.
