[voiceover] I carry a log -- yes. Is it funny to you? It is not to me. Behind all things are reasons. Reasons can even explain the absurd. Do we have the time to learn the reasons behind the human being's varied behavior? I think not. Some take the time. Are they called detectives? Watch -- and see what life teaches.

[Cooper is ordering breakfast during his first morning at the Great Northern.]
You know, this is -- excuse me -- a damn fine cup of coffee! ... Now, I'd like two eggs, over hard. I know, don't tell me; it's hard on the arteries, but old habits die hard -- just about as hard as I want those eggs. Bacon, super-crispy. Almost burned. Cremated. That's great. And, I'll have the grapefruit juice, just as long as those grapefruits... [He trails off as he sees high school vixen Audrey Horne saunter up to his table.] ... are freshly squeezed.
[Pete Martell pours coffee for Dale Cooper and Sheriff Truman.]
Mr. Cooper, how do you take it?
Black as midnight on a moonless night.
Pretty black.
You know, I think I'd better start studying medicine.
And why is that?
Because I'm beginning to feel a bit like Dr. Watson.
For your information, I heard you speaking about Laura Palmer?
Yes?
One day my log will have something to say about this. My log saw something that night.
Really? What did it see?
Ask it.
Fellas, don't drink that coffee! You'd never guess. There was a fish in the percolator! Sorry.
