Season 2, Episode 5

Synopsis

Cooper finds a note left under his bed, left by Audrey quite some time ago. It reveals Audrey’s location as One Eyed Jack’s.

Lucy goes on a trip to take care of her “problem.” A salesman tries to sell Bobby and Shelly a fancy motorized chair for Leo. It doesn’t work very well.

A sentencing is held for Leland regarding the murder of Jacques Renault. The prosecution says it was premeditated and the crime is murder. Harry presents the defense, saying the murder of his daughter Laura must have traumatized him. The judge releases Leland under the condition he remains in town until the trial.

Donna has dinner with Harold and offers her story in exchange for Laura’s diary. Harold gets the diary from a secret drawer in a bookshelf. Donna grabs the diary and runs out the door. Harold chases her, but as soon as he leaves the building he falls to the ground, unable to handle the outdoors. Donna bends down to help him, and Harold reclaims Laura’s diary.

Leo, still a suspect in Laura’s murder, is claimed a vegetable and unfit to stand trail.

Ed returns home with Nadine, who still thinks she is in high school. She doesn’t recognize James, and demonstrates super human strength by tearing off a refrigerator door.

Mr. Tajimura offers Ben Horne $5 million for the Ghostwood project.

Cooper meets with Ben to determine how to save Audrey. Jean Renault calls with instructions on where to deposit the ransom money. Ben gives Cooper a suitcase with the cash. After Cooper leaves, Ben secretly sends Hank to bring back both Audrey and the briefcase.

Donna and Maddie conspire to sneak into Harold’s apartment and steal Laura’s diary. Donna will distract Harold from the front room long enough for Maddie to sneak in.

At One Eyed Jack’s, Blackie hooks a secret knife onto Jean’s arm, and plans to overdose Audrey with drugs.

Andy is told his sperm results are normal. He tries to contact Lucy but realizes she’s gone to an abortion clinic.

Hawk searches for the one armed man and finds vials of medicine in a motel room

At the RR diner, Maddie runs into James en route to Harold’s, and James secretly decides to follow her. Inside Harold’s house, Donna tells Harold how she and Laura went to the Roadhouse to pick up some guys, a warm kiss, and falling in love. Harold is mesmerized.

Cooper and Harry sneak into One Eyed Jack’s, not intending to drop off the suitcase filled with cash, but instead rescue Audrey. They see Jean and Blackie preparing a fatal drug dose for Audrey.

Donna leads Harold into a back room room where he grows orchids. Laura signals to Maddie, hiding outside Harold’s place, with a flashlight.

Cooper finds Audrey tied up in a bed and frees her. Jacques kills Blackie with the knife. He shoots at Harry and vanishes. Cooper and Harry run out with Audrey in Cooper’s arms. A hoodlum is killed by Hawk with a knife. The four run out into the night. Observing from outside, Hank calls Ed to say the plan fell apart. From behind, Jean captures Hank.

Maddie struggles to find the diary hidden in the bookshelf. Harold catches both Donna and Maddie. Angry and disturbed, he produces a garden tool as if to kill them. As Donna and Maddie cower in a corner, Harold scratches his face with the garden tool, drawing blood.

Thoughts

• Donna’s story about picking up guys with Laura is much like a scene from the Twin Peaks movie, Fire Walk With Me.
• The phallic implications of the orchid were not lost on me.

Clues:

• Leo could still be Laura’s killer, but since he is deemed a vegetable, it will be hard to prosecute.
• Ben continues to double cross and act extremely suspicious.
• Hawk finds medicine used by the one-armed man (Mike).
• Mr. Tajimura offers Ben $5 million for the Ghostwood project.
