Bob.

There are pages torn out! That is real, Harold!

Bob is real! He's been having me since I was 12. And, the diary was hidden too well. There is no other person who could have known where it was. He comes in through my window at night. He's real. He's getting to know me now. He speaks to me.
Harold Smith:
What does Bob say?
Laura:
He says he wants to be me, or he'll kill me.

Foreboding Predictions and Investigative Challenges
Cooper:
Lately I've been filled with the knowledge that the killer will strike again. But because it is just a feeling, I am powerless to stop it. One more thing, Albert. When the next murder happens, you will help me solve it.
Albert:
Let's test it for the record. Will the next victim be a man or a woman?
Cooper:
A woman.
Albert:
All right. What color hair will she have?
Cooper:
Blonde.
Albert:
Tell me some other things about her.

She's in high school. She is sexually active. She is using drugs. She's crying out for help.
Albert:
Well damn, Cooper, that really narrows it down. You're talking about half the high school girls in America!

Agent Cooper's Disturbing Case Reflection
Special Agent Dale Cooper: [into his mini-tape recorder]
Diane, it's 4:20pm. I'm standing here at the Wind River near the location where the body of Teresa Banks was found. Diane, this case gives me a strange feeling. Not only has Special Agent Chester Desmond dissappeared without a trace, but this is one of Cole's blue rose cases. The clues that were found by Special Agent Desmond and Agent Stanley have led to dead ends. The letter that was extracted from beneath the fingernail of Teresa Banks gives me the feeling that the killer will strike again. But like the song goes, "who knows where, or when?
