INT. HORNE RESIDENCE - NIGHT

In the HORNE residence wing of the Great Northern Hotel, the HORNE family sits quietly around the dinner table. BENJAMIN HORNE and SYLVIA HORNE sit at opposite ends of a long dinner table while AUDREY HORNE and JOHNNY HORNE, wearing an Indian headdress, sit opposite each other near the middle of the table. Except for JOHNNY making a few odd sounds, the room is filled with the sounds of tableware clanking as the family eats. Until the door burst open and JERRY HORNE, BENJAMIN'S younger, wiry brother, walks in. JERRY looks back out at the hall.

Very interested, BENJAMIN takes the sandwich and draws his nose over it to smell it deeply.

BENJAMIN

BENJAMIN really likes the smell of the sandwich. Grabbing the long ends of the sandwich, he takes a large bite out of it. With his mouth full he hums in ecstasy. JERRY unwraps himself one and sits nearby at the fireplace. JERRY'S mouth is soon full from a bite of his sandwich and is laughing at BEN'S reaction.

BENJAMIN

JERRY continues to laugh with his mouth full as BENJAMIN madly takes another big bite out of his own sandwich. SYLVIA is annoyed by their actions. BENJAMIN and JERRY talk to each other with their mouths full.

He walks into the center of the room and then turns his head to LAURA'S picture on a nearby table. LELAND moves to photograph and picks it up. Slowly, at first, he starts to spin around in place holding the photo at arms length. Faster and faster he spins and starts to moan and then wail. Startled by the sound and the music, SARAH PALMER enters the room to see LELAND dancing and wailing.

SARAH

SARAH tries to take the picture out of his hands as he continues to spin. In the struggle they slam LAURA'S picture onto a table and cut themselves on the broken glass. LELAND wipes the blood on SARAH'S and his own hand and smears it on the photograph as he cries, thinking of his daughter.

SARAH

SARAH screams and walks over to the record player and slaps the stylus away from the record. The music stops.

SONG ENDS: PENNSYLVANIA 6-5000

SARAH

LELAND moans as SARAH screams with her hands to her head.

INT. WAITING ROOM

We see a large, windowless, well-lit, sparsely furnished, red-draped room with a table and three easy chairs. DALE COOPER, twenty-five years older, sits in one of the chairs. A LITTLE MAN, three and a half feet tall, in a red suit, stands with his back to COOPER, shaking violently.

A muffled voice repeatedly says 'Laura', a buzzing of electricity is heard along with the sound of a ceiling fan circulating as we briefly see ...

INT. DALE COOPER'S HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT

COOPER sleeps unrestly in bed, tossing and turning, with his room lit from an unknown source. He continues to dream and we switch between views of COOPER tossing and turning and of his dream ...




MORPH TO:

In a dimly lit room, a man, seen before walking through the hospital, with one arm speaks.

ONE-ARMED MAN




MORPH TO:

In a basement we see the man from SARAH'S vision, BOB, a frightening long-haired man, stands beside machinery in a dark room. He looks toward the ceiling as he speaks.

BOB, in the same surroundings, has one hand on his chest and the other pointing at us as he speaks.

MORPH TO:

INT. WAITING ROOM

We see a large, windowless, well-lit, sparsely furnished, red-draped room with a table and three easy chairs. DALE COOPER, twenty-five years older, sits in one of the chairs. Next to it is a coffee table with a model of Saturn. A LITTLE MAN, three and a half feet tall, in a red suit, stands with his back to COOPER, shaking violently. Two of the easy chairs are close together. Beside them are two tall Saturn lamps. A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN who looks exactly like LAURA PALMER sits across from COOPER in one of those chairs.

COPPER stares at the BEAUTIFUL WOMAN and she stares back at him. He turns to look at the LITTLE MAN. The LITTLE MAN stops shaking, turns to COOPER and claps his hands once.

LITTLE MAN

The LITTLE MAN moves over and sits in a chair beside the BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. The LITTLE MAN closes his eyes and rubs his hands slowly together, a ringing sound is produced.

SOUND EFFECT: SPIRIT PRESENCE RINGING  
COOPER looks at the BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, who is still staring at him and smiles enigmatically. She slowly puts a finger to the side of her nose and then slowly lowers her hand, almost pointing at him as it drops. As the LITTLE MAN rubs his hands, a shadow of a bird passes in the background behind the red drapes.

Both the LITTLE MAN'S and the BEAUTIFUL WOMAN'S speech is oddly stilted but COOPER'S speech is normal. We see subtitles under them, with the correct words. The LITTLE MAN stops rubbing his hands, opens his eyes, turns to COOPER and says ...

LITTLE MAN

COOPER sits quietly listening to him and turns to the BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. The LITTLE MAN turns to look at the WOMAN and then back to COOPER.

LITTLE MAN

TUNE: DANCE OF THE DREAM MAN

Strange saxophone music filters into the air. The LITTLE MAN hops off the chair and begins to dance a strange dance. A light, like a strobelight, flashes on and off. The BEAUTIFUL WOMAN rises, goes over, and gently kisses COOPER on the mouth. She then softly whispers something in his ear.




CUT TO:

INT. DALE COOPER'S HOTEL ROOM - NIGHT

COOPER shoots up out of his bed, waking from this strange and disturbing dream. He turn on the light, fumbles for the phone and dials.
