PETE & CATHERINE

Episode 1
§ Pete Martell pours Cooper and Truman a “cuppa joe” with an interesting chaser:
“Fellas! Don’t drink that coffee! You’ll never guess - - there was a FISH in the percolator!”

Episode 2
§ Catherine (re: Dale Cooper): Didn’t he want to talk to me?
Pete: Yeah, but we told him you were on your world tour- he should contact your press agent.

Episode 7
§ Catherine Martell stumbles upon Shelly Johnson- bound and gagged; hysterically trying to alert Catherine to bomb ticking away behind her.
Catherine: “I can’t understand a word you’re saying, you have a thing in your mouth.”
... Catherine frees Shelly and begins pondering life with burning timbers crashing down all around them.
Catherine: Do you know who called me here?
Shelley (thinking it would be a nifty plan to, perhaps, leave the premises, replies): No! I don’t! I don’t know anything!
Catherine: Be quiet! I’m trying to think.

Episode 8
§ Pete Martell: Boy, this smoke inhalation is a nasty business. I feel like somebody taped my lips to the tail pipe of a bus.

Episode 13
§ Pete to Mr. Tojamura at the Great Northern wine and milk bar: You like musicals?
Tojamura: No.
Pete: Not even Fiddler on the Roof? It made me weep like a little baby.
Tojamura: I find adherence to fantasy troubling and unreasonable.
Pete: Yeah... You’re not from around here are you?

Episode 14
§ Carrying a snack back to the table in a darkened kitchen, Pete is startled when Mr. Tojamura steps out of the shadows and lays a big smooch smack on the lips.
Pete: Now you look here, buster! You just better get the hell outta here mister!
Tojamura/Catherine: Dummy! It’s me!

Episode 16
§ ’Mr. Tojamura’ visits Ben’s jail cell, revealing herself to actually be Catherine.
Catherine: Benjamin Horne, you are a slimy rat bastard and I intend to make whatever remains of your pathetic existence a living hell.
Ben implores Catherine to prove him innocent of the charge of murder; to tell the sheriff about where they both were the night of Laura Palmer’s death.
Catherine: Why Ben, we’ve spent our entire adult lives lying to each other. Why spoil it with the truth now?

Episode 17
§ Back at the station house, Truman finds someone waiting for him in his office.
Truman: Forgive my saying so Catherine, but aren’t you dead?

Episode 26
§ Pete: It’s a puzzle box. I saw one of these at a crafts emporium on Guam. I was there taking a little R and R with the Doolittle twins. There was a monkey show you would not believe! And Dale Doolittle- he was the larger of the two. Come to think of it, for twins, they weren’t all that much alike-
Catherine: Peter!!
Pete: Sorry Poodle.


Episode 29
§ Pete bursts into Truman’s office: Grand theft auto! The Log Lady stole my truck!... Twelve rainbow trout in the bed!

Pete: Now let me get this straight... your ENTIRE COUNTRY is above the timberline?

Pete at Great Northern bar chatting with Asian mystery man:
"Can I buy ya a saki?"
"No sank you"
"How 'bout a glass of milk?"

Catherine Martell to Ben Horne: In the sweetness of passing time, this hour will soon seem like a day. I'm not one of your teenaged pea brain chambermaids.

Catherine: You have mink oil in your head!

• Catherine to Ben: My knothead husband may peek in the ledger and sniff out the creative arithmetic.

• Harry: She was a tiger, alright.
Pete: It's no use mincin' words. She was plain hell to live with....plain hell. But, once, there was a little bit of heaven there, too...
