"Remember 430. Richard and Linda. Two birds with one stone."
Richard was a guest at the Pearblossom Motel and Linda's former partner. He had unclear connections to Dale Cooper and the Fireman.
Biography[]
In 2016, the Fireman gave Special Agent Dale Cooper a series of things to remember, including the names "Richard and Linda."[1]
Weeks later, Cooper and Diane Evans crossed into an uncertain year, and began to display different traits in personality. They spent a night at the Pearblossom Motel, where they unhappily had sex, and the next morning, Cooper found a letter addressed to "Richard" from Linda, explaining that she had left because he wasn't the same man anymore, and asking him not to look for her. Cooper pondered this aloud before heading out for his greater mission.[2]
Behind the scenes[]
- The circumstances in which the motel room letter is found suggest that Dale and Diane have replaced, or become, Richard and Linda respectively since crossing.
- Kyle MacLachlan interpreted Richard as a distinct character, explaining: "The way it was described to me, [Richard was] just a little harder. So it was another variation, sort of a subtle variation obviously, compared to [impaired Cooper and the doppelganger], but a subtle variation of Cooper. And so that was that last hour, watching him navigate that."[3]
