Gordon Cole quotes from Twin Peaks

Gordon Cole

YOU'LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP. HEARING'S GONE. LONG STORY. GOT THESE THINGS CRANKED UP TO THE MAX.

Gordon Cole

COOPER, YOU REMIND ME TODAY OF A SMALL MEXICAN CHIHUAHUA.

Gordon Cole

HEADIN' ON OVER TO BEND, OREGON. WHOLE LOTTA SHAKIN' GOING ON IN BEND!

Gordon Cole

DON'T LET'EM RATTLE YOU, COOP. THESE GUYS MAKE A LIVING LOOKING THROUGH OTHER PEOPLE'S DRAWERS. MAY A SMILE BE YOUR UMBRELLA. WE'VE ALL HAD OUR SOCKS TOSSED AROUND. CATCH YOU LATER.

Gordon Cole

WE ARE LIKE THE DREAMER WHO DREAMS AND THEN LIVES INSIDE THE DREAM.

Gordon Cole

WHAT A BEAUTY. REMINDS ME OF THAT STATUE, THE BABE WITHOUT THE ARMS.

The Venus de Milo.

Gordon Cole

THE NAME WAS MILO BUT THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT. THAT'S THE KIND OF GIRL THAT MAKES YOU WISH YOU SPOKE A LITTLE FRENCH.

Bobby Briggs

[seeing Gordon and Shelly kiss] Hey! What the hell's going on?

Gordon Cole

YOU ARE WITNESSING A FRONT THREE-QUARTER VIEW OF TWO ADULTS SHARING A TENDER MOMENT. [to Shelly] Acts like he's never seen a kiss before.

Uh, Gordon...

Gordon Cole

TAKE ANOTHER LOOK, SONNY. IT'S GONNA HAPPEN AGAIN!

Gordon Cole

COOP! THEY SAY THAT LOVE MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND, MAKES PEOPLE WHO NEED PEOPLE THE LUCKIEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD. ALTHOUGH THEY NEVER SAID A DOG GUN THING ABOUT A CURE FOR HEARING LOSS. [to Shelly] Shelly, you are a miracle worker and a goddess sent from heaven.

Shelly Johnson

I’m a waitress in a diner I’ve never been compared to a goddess before.

Gordon Cole

Well shelly you just don’t know your own value. [to Dale Cooper] COOP! SHE’S A RARE AND PRECIOUS INDIVIDUAL, DON’T YOU THINK?

I know what you mean Gordon.

Gordon Cole

[turns to Shelly] Shelly turn around and face me a moment before I lose my nerve. I’m about ready to leave Twin Peaks and I don’t know when I’m gonna return but I want you to know that meeting you has been more than a privilege, you touched my heart and I know that if I don’t kiss you now I’m gonna regret it the rest of my days.

Bobby Briggs

[seeing Gordon and Shelly kiss] Hey! What the hell's going on?

Gordon Cole

YOU ARE WITNESSING A FRONT THREE-QUARTER VIEW OF TWO ADULTS SHARING A TENDER MOMENT. [to Shelly] Acts like he's never seen a kiss before.

Uh, Gordon…

Gordon Cole

TAKE ANOTHER LOOK, SONNY. IT'S GONNA HAPPEN AGAIN!

Gordon Cole

ALBERT, WE'RE HEADED TO THE BLACK HILLS OF SOUTH DAKOTA.

Albert Rosenfield

The Black Hills? Seriously?

Gordon Cole

AS HAPPY AS THIS NEWS MAKES US, ALBERT, WE CAN'T PUT THIS ON THE RADIO.

Albert Rosenfield

Perfect. I've been dying to see Mount Rushmore.

Gordon Cole

IT'S COOPER. THEY FOUND HIM.

Denise Bryson

Where?

Gordon Cole

SOUTH DAKOTA, DENISE. HE'S IN A FEDERAL PRISON IN SOUTH DAKOTA. WE'RE GOING OUT TO SEE HIM TOMORROW.

Denise Bryson

I heard.

Gordon Cole

YES? HOW'S THAT?

Denise Bryson

You're taking Agent Preston with you?

Gordon Cole

YES.

Denise Bryson

Really, Gordon?

Gordon Cole

WHAT ARE YOU GETTIN' AT, DENISE?

Denise Bryson

Well, I know your profile, Gordon. Beautiful agent, barely 30...

Gordon Cole

I'M OLD SCHOOL, DENISE. YOU KNOW THAT. BEFORE YOU WERE DENISE, WHEN YOU WERE DENNIS AND I WAS YOUR BOSS, WHEN I HAD YOU WORKING UNDERCOVER AT THE DEA, YOU WERE A CONFUSED AND WILD THING SOMETIMES. I HAD ENOUGH DIRT ON YOU TO FILL THE GRAND CANYON - AND I NEVER USED A SPOONFUL BECAUSE YOU WERE AND ARE A GREAT AGENT. AND WHEN YOU BECAME DENISE, I TOLD ALL YOUR COLLEAGUES, THOSE CLOWN COMICS, TO FIX THEIR HEARTS OR DIE.

Denise Bryson

Yes, and as I've said many times before, Gordon, I can never repay you enough for that kindness.

Gordon Cole

AGENT TAMMY PRESTON HAS THE STUFF, DENISE.

Denise Bryson

I know, I know. I'm speaking more as a woman now than as the Chief of Staff of the entire Federal Bureau of Investigation. Don't you just love saying "Federal Bureau of Investigation" sometimes, all at once, unabbreviated? It just gives me such a thrill.

Gordon Cole

IT IS THRILLING, DENISE.

Denise Bryson

And Tammy... Tammy is such a beautiful woman.

Gordon Cole

THERE'S ROOM IN THIS FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION FOR MORE THAN ONE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, DENISE.

Denise Bryson

[blushing] Oh, Gordon...

This is what we found in his trunk: cocaine, machine gun, dog leg.

Albert Rosenfield

What, no cheese and crackers?

Gordon Cole

APOLOGIES IN ADVANCE FOR ALBERT.

It's /yerv/, very good to see you again, old friend!

Gordon Cole

IT'S VERY, VERY GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, OLD FRIEND.

I haven't seen you in a long, long time.

Gordon Cole

NO, YOU HAVEN'T. THIS IS TRUE.

Gordon, I've really, really missed spending time together.

Gordon Cole

YES, COOP. I, TOO, HAVE MISSED OUR GOOD TIMES TOGETHER. WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL THESE YEARS?

Gordon? I've been working undercover all these years, working primarily with our colleague Phillip Jeffries.

Gordon Cole

PHILLIP JEFFRIES?

I need to be debriefed by you about this work, Gordon. I will tell you the whole story, all its twists and turns, and I was going to do so. I was on my way to present it to you. I was... a little bit behind schedule when my car veered over across the road and I had my accident.

Gordon Cole

YES, COOP. THIS IS HOW AND WHY WE FOUND YOU.

I need to be debriefed by you, Gordon. I was on my way to present it. I was a little bit behind schedule when my car veered over off the road and I had my accident. I've left messages.

Gordon Cole

WHAT MESSAGES WERE THOSE, COOP?

Messages so Phillip knows it's safe. Gordon... When are you going to get me out of here?

Gordon Cole

COOP, THESE FINE FELLOWS HERE HAVE SUFFICIENT CAUSE TO HOLD YOU FOR NOW.

Of course, I will be exonerated in courts of law.

Gordon Cole

VERY GOOD, COOP. AND REST ASSURED THAT WE ARE WORKING TO BRING YOU BACK HOME FOR OUR TALK.

I've never really left home, Gordon.

Gordon Cole

SEE YOU SOON, OLD FRIEND.

Gordon Cole

Albert. This business that we witnessed today with Cooper... I don't like it.

Albert Rosenfield

No.

Gordon Cole

Something's wrong.

Albert Rosenfield

Yes.

Gordon Cole

It could be the accident. But I don't think so.

Albert Rosenfield

No.

Gordon Cole

Albert — that sound you just made with your feet on the concrete, it's like a knife in my brain.

Albert Rosenfield

I'm sorry, Gordon.

Gordon Cole

Albert! This thing is turned up to the max. Please.

Albert Rosenfield

[quieter] I'm sorry, Gordon.

Gordon Cole

[referring to Cooper's double] I don't think he greeted me properly, if you take my meaning.

Albert Rosenfield

No, he didn't.

Gordon Cole

I think something is very wrong.

Albert Rosenfield

Yes, it is.

Gordon Cole

Albert… I hate to admit this, but I don't understand this situation at all.

Albert Rosenfield

I know.

Gordon Cole

...Do you understand this situation, Albert?

Albert Rosenfield

...Blue rose.

Gordon Cole

It doesn't get any bluer.

Gordon Cole

HOW DID IT GO?

Albert Rosenfield

Not well. I said, "Hello Diane." She said, "This is about Cooper, isn't it?" I said, "Maybe." She said, and I quote, "No fucking way."

Gordon Cole

OH.

Albert Rosenfield

I was at home, dripping wet, on the verge of pneumonia, 15 minutes later. How was your evening, Chief?

Diane Evans

Can I smoke in here?

Gordon Cole

SMOKE? ASK MACKLEY WHEN HE GETS BACK.

Albert Rosenfield

Smoking's bad for you. [Diane gives him a withering look] I know. "Fuck you, Albert."

Diane Evans

That's right. Fuck you, Albert.
