INT. LOG LADY’S CABIN - DAY
Seated at a dining table beside a tea set we see a woman, ‘LOG LADY’ MARGARET
LANTERMEN. In her arms she carries a wooden log. She is speaking to us.
LOG LADY
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Yet there are those who open many eyes. Eyes are the
mirror of the soul, someone has said. So we look closely at the eyes to see the nature of the
soul. Sometimes when we see the eyes, those horrible times when we see the eyes, eyes that ...
that have no soul. Then we know a darkness, then we wonder. Where is the beauty? There is
none if the eyes are soulless.

INT. DALE COOPER’S HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT
FBI SPECIAL AGENT DALE COOPER sits at the corner of his bed as he speaks somberly
and gently to AUDREY HORNE, who is undressed and in his bed under the sheets.
COOPER
Audrey your a high school girl. I’m an agent of the FBI.
MUSIC: TWIN PEAKS THEME
AUDREY is teary eyed.
AUDREY
So do you want me to leave or what?
COOPER takes a deep breath as he ponders what to say.
COOPER
What I want and what I need are two different things Audrey.
COOPER takes another deep breath.
COOPER
When a man joins the bureau he takes an oath to uphold certain values. Values that
he’s sworn to live by. This is wrong Audrey, we both know it.
AUDREY
COOPER
I like you very much. Your beautiful, intelligent, desirable. Your everything a man wants in
his life. But what you need right now, more then anything else, is a friend. Someone
who will listen.
AUDREY wipes tears from her eyes. COOPER reaches into his pocket and pulls out a handkerchief for her.
AUDREY
COOPER nods yes. AUDREY brightens with a smile. COOPER returns with a smile.
COOPER
Now I’m going to go down and get us two malts
and some fries downstairs. Then I want you to tell me all your troubles.
AUDREY
That could take all night.
COOPER
COOPER stands up.
COOPER
Now I’m going to get the food ... and your going to get dressed.
AUDREY
I can’t tell you all my secrets.
COOPER
Secrets are dangerous things Audrey.
AUDREY
COOPER
AUDREY
Laura had a lot of secrets.
COOPER
Finding those out is my job.
AUDREY watches COOPER leave the room. COOPER closes the door behind himself.
AUDREY breathes a sigh of relief.

DEPUTY ANDY BRENNAN slowly enters the building. ANDY peers to the reception
window before he passes the second set of glass double doors, clears his
throat and walks toward the reception window. LUCY MORAN, in the reception
office, greets ANDY but tries not to look at him.
LUCY
Good morning Officer Brennan.
ANDY
I’d sure wish you’d stop calling me Officer Brennan.
LUCY
Officer Andy this is peak activity time at the station switchboard. So its really not
convenient for me to talk right now.
The phone beside LUCY RINGS and, as a distraction, she quickly answers it.
LUCY
Twin Peaks Sheriff’s station. May I help you?
(reply) One moment please.
LUCY puts her hand over the receiver and stares at ANDY. ANDY walks off. LUCY returns to the phone.
LUCY
Dr. Stonacheck. Yes its me. (reply) Oh.
(reply)
Ah-ha. (reply) Well thank you doctor.
(reply) No, I’m fine.
(reply) Bye.
LUCY hangs up the phone.
COOPER enters the building through the front doors, blowing his whittled WHISTLE.
COOPER
Mornin’ Lucy. I heard that you were out sick yesterday.
Depressed, LUCY doesn’t look up at COOPER as she answers.
LUCY
I’m much better today, thanks.
COOPER notices but doesn’t get involved. Politely, COOPEr simply nods.
COOPER
COOPER walks to the conference room.
CUT TO:
INT. TWIN PEAKS SHERIFF’S DEPARTMENT - DAY
In the conference room, SHERIFF HARRY S. TRUMAN stands beside the table opposite a bird cage.
DR. WILL HAYWARD stands at the end of the table bent over an encyclopedia. Near the table hanging
from a stand is a bird cage with WALDO, the mynah bird, from JACQUES RENAULT’S cabin.
AGENT COOPER walks into the room and stands near the window and the bird cage.
DR. HAYWARD
Alright I found it. Gracula Religiosa. Commonly known as the hill mynah. Native to Southeast
Asia-Indonesia. Feeds on fruit mainly. Some invertebrates. Its ability to mimic the human
voice is amazing.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
Yeah well so far we haven’t heard a peep.
SHERIFF TRUMAN walks to the bird cage.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
DR. HAYWARD
Well it says here that mimicry is a kind of play
with the mynah. But this one’s in a weakened condition; starved, dehydrated.
I’d say he’s feeling anything but playful.
DR. HAYWARD picks up a grape.
DR. HAYWARD
Here ya’ go little fella.
DR. HAYWARD moves to feed the grape to WALDO but sees COOPER staring at the bird.
DR. HAYWARD
Oh, you wanna feed him Agent Cooper?
COOPER
SHERIFF TRUMAN
When do you think he’ll start talking again?
DR. HAYWARD
Well, according to the book his urge to mimic should return with his good health.
COOPER
If it does then we got a witness.
DR. HAYWARD
Well we better keep feeding him.
DR. HAYWARD sourly looks at the grape and then turns to SHERIFF TRUMAN.
DR. HAYWARD
SHERIFF TRUMAN
Yeah. There’s some at the bottom of the fridge.
DR. HAYWARD
These grapes are right on the edge.
DEPUTY TOMMY ‘THE HAWK’ HILL enters the room carrying a file.
HAWK
These just came in from your office.
HAWK hands the file to COOPER, who looks it over. COOPER moves over to SHERIFF TRUMAN.
COOPER
Hmm. Forensics confirms that Jacques Renault had three guests to his cabin; Laura Palmer,
Ronette Pulaski and Leo Johnson.
COOPER looks at the back of a large photograph. The photograph is marked with a stamp as evidence.
COOPER flips the photograph over to look at the image.
COOPER
This is the only exposed negative on that roll of film Harry. Look familiar?
COOPER hands the photo to SHERIFF TRUMAN. SHERIFF TRUMAN scans the photograph and smiles.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
COOPER
No Harry, the girl. That’s Laura.
SHERIFF TRUMAN gives a puzzled look and looks at the photograph again.
SHERIFF TRUMAN’S POV:
Through SHERIFF TRUMAN’S POV we view a CLOSE-UP of the photograph. The picture
is of WALDO perched on the shoulder of a WOMAN with blonde hair.
BACK TO SCENE:
Unsure which end is up, SHERIFF TRUMAN turns the photograph around as he
continues to look it over.
COOPER
Well, now we know who and when. We don’t know why.
COOPER stacks some books under the bird cage. COOPER then pulls his mini tape
recorder out of his pocket and shows it to SHERIFF TRUMAN.
COOPER
With a CLICK, COOPER turns the mini recorder on.
COOPER
When the bird talks maybe we’ll get some answers.

COOPER places his mini tape recorder on the stack of books right below the bird cage. COOPER picks
up a file from the folder and hands it to SHERIFF TRUMAN. Paper clipped to the file is a plastic
bag containing the notched poker chip.
COOPER
Albert confirmed that this matches the fragment found in Laura’s stomach.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
Thousand dollar chip from One-Eyed Jacks.
HAWK
Jacques Renault’s working there. Dealing in the casino.
COOPER
Well, I think a little field work is in order.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
Jacks is over the border. A little out of our jurisdiction.
COOPER
Well I know that Harry. That’s why I was thinking this would be a good job for the Bookhouse Boys.
SHERIFF TRUMAN understands and smiles.

BOBBY cradles his hands around SHELLY’S neck and head.
SHELLY
Leo came home late last night. He was all beat up. He had blood all over him. I told
him ... I was never ... ever gonna let him hurt me again but he came at me.
SHELLY becomes even more upset.
SHELLY
So I pulled the trigger. I shot him Bobby. What am I going to do? Where am I going to hide?
BOBBY
Shelly, Leo Johnson is history. Understand?

LAURA (FROM TAPE)
What’s up doc. Just a few words before I go to sleep. I feel like I’m going to dream
tonight. Big bad ones, you know, the kind you like. Its easier talking into the recorder. I
guess I feel I can say anything. All my secrets. The naked ones. I know you like those doc. I
know you like me too. That’ll be my little secret okay. Just like your coconut. Why is it
so easy to make men like me? And I don’t even have to try very hard. Maybe ... if it was harder ...

AUDREY
CUSTOMER
MR. EMORY BATTIS, the store vice-president, walks up to the perfume counter and talks to JENNY,
a salesgirl working with AUDREY. AUDREY searches for another fragrance for the CUSTOMER but,
standing near JENNY, is more interested in listening in on JENNY’S and BATTIS’S discussion.
EMORY
Could I see you in my office in five minutes?
JENNY
EMORY walks off.
CUSTOMER
I’m not making myself clear. I want a scent that makes a statement.
AUDREY
Maybe you should try hanging it around your neck. Its a perfume, its a fashion accessory. Two
statements for the price of one.
CUSTOMER
I don’t appreciate your attitude.
The CUSTOMER walks away.
AUDREY
(playfully) Well thank you for shopping Horne’s
Department Store.
AUDREY walks over to JENNY.

moving boxes on a shelf nearby. In her mischievous way, AUDREY leans against the shelves and
tells a lie to rid the STOCK BOY.
AUDREY
You know there’s a real bad accident outside. Sounded like a bus or something.
The STOCK BOY silently heads out to take a look. AUDREY grins and enters EMORY’S office.

EMORY
Jenny, you had a good time at the club last week didn’t you?
JENNY
Yeah, yeah I had a great time, Mr. Battis.
EMORY
They were very pleased with you as well, I must say. They’d like you to continue and

JENNY
Elegant sounds great Mr. Battis. Elegant.
EMORY escorts JENNY out of the office.
BACK TO SCENE:
AUDREY drops her cigarette to the floor, puts it out by stepping on it, exits the closet
and walks over to EMORY’S desk. AUDREY picks up a small black book laying on top of the
desk. AUDREY opens the book and flips through the pages. The pages list several different names
of women. Beside each name are hearts that rank each girl. On one page AUDREY finds the name of:

HANK
When your in prison you remember faces from home. They all seem like friends somehow. Even
the ones you barely knew, like something to hang on to I guess.
SHELLY hands a customer their order of a cherry pie.
SHELLY
It must have been hard on you.

The COOK rings the service bell and SHELLY moves off to pick up the order.
HANK

HANK looks down at the counter where he sees a lighter someone had left behind their plate of
food. With his shifty eyes, HANK glances around, casually moves his hand, picks up the lighter and
puts it in his back pocket. HANK then moves the dirty plates to a bin.
At the front door, SHERIFF TRUMAN and AGENT COOPER enter the diner. SHERIFF TRUMAN spots HANK.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
HANK
Hi Harry. Glad to see me?
HANK moves up the island counter towards SHERIFF TRUMAN.

HANK jokingly puts up both of his hands.

COOPER
Harry, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. Everyday, once a day, give yourself
a present. Don’t plan it, don’t wait for it, just let it happen.
SHELLY places two cups of coffee on the counter near them.
COOPER
It could be a new shirt at the men store, a catnap in your office chair or ...
COOPER gestures to the cups of coffee on the counter before them.
COOPER
... two cups of good hot black coffee. Like this.
COOPER wears a large grin. SHERIFF TRUMAN grins back.
SHERIFF TRUMAN
A present? Like Christmas?
COOPER nods yes. COOPER and SHERIFF TRUMAN both move to the counter and take a seat where
their coffee has been placed. COOPER grabs his cup and takes a sip. SHERIFF TRUMAN watches COOPER.
COOPER
Ahh man that hits the spot.
SHERIFF TRUMAN grins at COOPER’S reaction. SHERIFF TRUMAN hasn’t touched

I’m glad you agreed to see me Mrs. Martell.
CATHERINE
MR. NEV
Normally I’d never think to compose this late.
CATHERINE
That’s fine. Now what’s this about?
MR. NEV
Every agent is instructed five signatures. Its
really the first thing we learn and ... somehow ... we missed one.
He places his briefcase on the table and opens it.
CATHERINE
Now refresh my memory. What policy is this?
He pulls out an expanding folder from his briefcase and takes out a document.
MR. NEV
Your new life insurance. Since the binder takes
effect at midnight tonight I really had no choice. You see, it just couldn’t
wait until tomorrow.
He pulls a pen from his shirt pocket, clicks out the pen tip, marks an ‘X’
by the line for her to sign by and hands her the pen.

withheld that last page myself.

MR. NEV
I have to admit I thought it a little ... unusual.
Life insurance when the client is too busy ... to be involved. (smiling)
I mean, you did know about this policy didn’t you?
CATHERINE
Are you suggesting that there’s something ...
irregular at work here?
MR. NEV
I certainly never got that idea from Mrs. Packard,
no. Or from Mr. Horne for that matter either. When he offered to collect
your signatures I thought it was fine. Just with a new account, I like
to be certain to (gestures with the pen as if to cross a ‘T’) cross every
‘T’.
Again he shows her where to sign on the document.
MR. NEV
CATHERINE
You know, I’m noticing that there’s some ... minor
changes that I asked my attorney to make that are not included in this
draft. I think what I’d like to do is go over this with him on the phone
in the morning, and initial the changes and get the completed documents to
you at that time.
MR. NEV
If there’s anything that I can do to help you

CATHERINE
