Albert: while I will admit to a certain cynicism, the fact is that I'm a naysayer and hatchetman in the fight against violence. I pride myself in taking a punch and I'll gladly take another, because I choose to live in the company of Ghandi and King. My concerns are global. I reject absolutely revenge, aggression and retaliation. The foundation of such a method...is Love. I love you, Sheriff Truman.

Cooper: Albert's path is a strange and difficult one.

Original Airdate: October 13, 1990
Cooper and Truman discover that the trail to Laura's killer takes an unexpected new direction; Blackie O'Reilly sees a golden opportunity; James Hurley and Madeleine Ferguson strike an unforeseen chord; and Dr. Jacoby undergoes hypnosis.
Oh Maddy, Maddy, Maddy....James, James, James... boy that James gets through girls fast...
A good episode, lots of interesting stuff going on. First Leland recognises Bob, and goes and tells the sheriff and Cooper about seeing him when he was a little boy, and how he'd flick matches at Leland and say 'You want to play with fire, little boy?'. Stangely, no one mentions this would have been years ago, so Bob would be ancient by now...
The one-armed man sees a picture of Bob, and freaks out in a memorable little scene... but vows to hunt Bob down. (some history there).
We meet a new character, Richard Tremayne, who appears to have impregnated Lucy and eats with his fork downwards...
And they arrest someone for the murder of Jacques Renault, as revealed by Dr Jacoby under hypnosis, remembering that night.
Oh, and this contains my favourite piece with Albert in the whole series (as written at the top). Albert is so great!
Priceless moment of the episode: Ed's face when he realises Nadine has completely flipped, when Nadine says 'You're only 18 once!'
