Harry, what's on your mind?
Sheriff Harry S. Truman:
I'm worried about Josie. She's been afraid, really afraid.
Special Agent Dale Cooper:
About what?
Sheriff Harry S. Truman:
Ben Horne and Catherine Martell. They've been seeing each other on the sides, it's been going on for years. Josie just found out. She thinks that they are going to try to burn down the sawmill, and somehow get rid of her too.

Do you belive her?

This episode begins where the previous one ended; with an apparently naked Audrey in Agent Cooper's bed; nothing happens though as he gently extricates himself from the situation without hurting her feelings. The police investigation continues as they take a witness into custody... that witness is Waldo; the talking myna bird! Waldo's days are numbered though as Leo Johnson is listening to the police radio when news of a witness is mentioned. With suspect Jacques Renault over the border at One Eyed Jacks Cooper suggests that The Bookhouse Boys pay the establishment a visit; he doesn't know somebody else is going undercover there; Audrey is trying to get a job there as a hostess. While this is going on north of the border Donna, James and Maddy have listened to Laura's cassettes and believe Dr. Jacoby was involved with her so lure him out of his house so they can have a look around.
As the first season of Twin Peaks approaches its dénouement it does look as though the investigation is getting somewhere; they are certainly getting close to criminals but which, if any of them, killed Laura remains to be seen. All this doubt keeps the mystery as interesting as ever. As well as being a fine episode overall there were also some great individual scenes; particular favourites being when Cooper orders a fine cup of coffee explaining that one should give oneself a present every day and the famous scene where Audrey puts a cherry stalk into her mouth and ties a knot in it with her tongue.
