Benjamin Horne quotes from Twin Peaks

[Standing over Bernard's corpse] Jacques' back in Canada. We had a long talk, he's staying there. Jacques was the brains in the outfit. Bernie made bail this morning on possession.

Benjamin Horne

Do me know if uh, the late Bernard gave you up?

I told him if he ever did I'd kill him.

Benjamin Horne

Oh... did he?

Nah, he shouldn't have trusted me, but like I said, Bernie wasn't too bright.

Sheriff... no offense, but, eh... clearly, this man's stairs do not reach the attic. Now, your 24 hours are up! You either charge my client or let him go!

Sheriff Truman

Ben Horne, I'm charging you with the murder of Laura Palmer.

Benjamin Horne

Yeah. Good move, Jer!

Benjamin Horne

Audrey, look, I know that I haven't been a very good father. Oh hell, who am I kidding? When have I ever been anything but a sleazy rapacious heel?

Audrey Horne

Well Daddy, maybe when I was little, but...

Benjamin Horne

Exactly.

Benjamin Horne

We'll of course take care of your medical expenses.

How kind. One might also think worker's compensation of some variety will be involved...

Benjamin Horne

Easily done.

Capital, Mr. Horne. I'll alert my attorney.

Is that the new girl? Or should I say "woman"? A woman like that, you can't call a girl.

Beverly, yes.

Are you banging her yet?

Oh, Jerry! R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Respect. She's a beautiful soul. And she's married.

That never stopped you before.

[holding a room key] Room 315. Wait a minute. I think that was the room where Agent Cooper was shot.

Who's Agent Cooper?

FBI. He was here, I don't know, maybe 25 years ago investigating the murder of Laura Palmer.

Who's Laura Palmer?

Oh, that, my dear, is a long story.

My grandson Richard killed that little boy.

I'm sorry.

Richard never had a father. [pause] I remember... I remember riding. My father got me this old Schwinn, second hand. He painted it green, got a new seat for it. Two-tone green, kind of a lime-green and deep forest green. Fat tires. Oh, it was so hard to ride, but I loved that bike. I loved that bike! I'd ride with my friends... Call the hospital. I want you to arrange to pay for all of Miriam, umm... I don't even remember her last name, but they'll know who she is. All of Miriam's medical expenses. Richard assaulted her. She needs an operation. Beverly, take care of this right away.

Of course. I'll do it right now. [leaves]

[smiles sadly] I loved that bike. I loved that bike that my father got for me.
