Plot[]

"Laura is the one."

Margaret Lanterman

Richard drives to Miriam Sullivan's, who tells him to leave and has sent a letter about him to the sheriff's department. He angrily breaks into the trailer and savagely beats her. He leaves, calling Deputy Chad and telling him to intercept Miriam's letter.

Carl plays guitar and sings outside of his trailer and stops when a red mug is thrown through a trailer window by Steven Burnett, who is inside abusing Becky.

Rodney Mitchum is going over paperwork when Candie comes in, tries to swat a fly, and ends up hitting Rodney in the head with a television remote. Bradley comes in as Candie becomes hysterical over wounding Rodney.

Dougie's doctor examines Dale Cooper as Janey-E tells him about his recent behavior. After a physical, he is determined to be in excellent health, delightfully surprising Janey-E, due to Dougie usually being overweight.

Rodney watches the news with Candie, Sandie, and Mandie and sees the report on the arrest Ike "The Spike" Stadtler, who they had a hit on. They then see the report on Ike's attack on "Dougie," recognizing him as "Mr. Jackpots" from their casino.

Janey-E watches Cooper eat cake and asks him if he finds her attractive, trying to tempt him. Then they have sex, with Cooper's arms comically flopping on the bed, resulting in Sonny Jim being awoken by Janey-E's screams.

Jacoby broadcasts an episode of his "Dr. Amp" show as Nadine Hurley watches.

In the morning, Janey-E – in a bright mood from the evening before – takes Cooper to work and Sonny Jim to school.

Jerry, lost in the woods, yells when he loses phone signal.

Chad goes to Lucy's desk and comments that it is a beautiful day, then going out to get the mail as Lucy watches with suspicion. He pockets Miriam's letter outside of Lucy's view and goes back inside, leaving the rest of the mail with Lucy.

Richard drives, reading a text message from Chad, confirming that he caught the letter from Miriam.

Johnny sits in front of a talking toy bear while Sylvia goes to the door as Richard arrives at her house, trying to keep him away. He enters anyway and demands money. He starts strangling Sylvia as Johnny helplessly falls over, tied to his chair, squirming on the floor. Richard gets valuables from a safe and takes his grandmother's purse before leaving.

Roger reports Ike's arrest to Duncan Todd, who then calls over Anthony Sinclair, ordering him to convince the Mitchum brothers that Dougie is working against them, and, if he fails, to kill Dougie.

Albert Rosenfield and Constance Talbot enjoy a dinner date as Cole and Preston observe them approvingly.

At the Silver Mustang Casino, the Mitchum brothers watch (via security cameras) Sinclair approaching Warrick and stating that he wishes to speak to the Mitchums. They send Candie down to collect Sinclair, which she does with much delay. When she finally brings him to the office, Sinclair lies to the Mitchum brothers that Dougie Jones had cheated them out of their insurance claim for their hotel that burned down due to arson. Back home, they make their plans to deal with Jones.

Cole sits in his hotel room, sketching, then answers the door, seeing a vision of Laura Palmer and hearing Sarah Palmer shouting "Laura!" before he notices Albert. Albert shows him Diane's text, saying that it was sent from Mexico, and her response to it saying that they have Hastings. Preston enters and shows them a photo of the glass box in the presence of Cooper's doppelganger and another man.

Sylvia tells Ben about Richard's attack, expecting him to cover for her money stolen by Richard. Ben asks Beverly to have dinner with him.

The Log Lady speaks to Hawk over the phone with another cryptic message, particularly noting the Trumans as Hawk's brothers and that "Laura is the one."

At the Roadhouse, Rebekah Del Rio performs "No Stars."

Notes[]

  • The scene in which Candie smacks Rod in the face with a television remote as she tries to swat a fly was unscripted and a byproduct of an actual on-set accident. A light on the set fell and hit Robert Knepper right below his eye on his cheekbone, and David Lynch devised the scene between Candie and Rod to explain the cut on his face.[2]
  • During the filming of Cooper and Janey-E's sex scene, Kyle MacLachlan was only given the direction to lie down on the bed and more or less be passive. As it was being shot, his arms began naturally bouncing with the motions of the bed, prompting the director of photography to lean in and whisper, "Keep doing the arms, it's hilarious!"[3]
  • One address on the letter is:
Marvin Marcia
91846 W Elmford Row Pl.
Twin [Peaks]

Production errors[]

  • The prop department mistakenly gave Miriam Sullivan the surname "Hodges" in her address.[4]
  • A visual glitch occurs on the doorknob when Tammy goes to Gordon's apartment.
  • When Chad stand in front of Lucy's desk, he places his hands on his belt but on the reverse shot, they appear to be on his belly, then, on the next shot, on his belt again.
