 "I'm close, but the last few steps are always the darkest and most difficult." -Dale Cooper "Drive With a Dead Girl" picks up with Donna (Lara Flynn Boyle) and James (James Marshall) attempting to say goodbye to Maddy (Sheryl Lee), but are told by Leland (Ray Wise) that Maddy has already gone home.  In actuality, Maddy's body is stashed in his golf bag, which he moves to the trunk of his car. Later, Agent Cooper (Kyle MacLachlan) and Sheriff Truman (Michael Ontkean) let Leland know that Ben (Richard Beymer) has been taken into custody for involvement with Laura's (Sheryl Lee) murder.  This seems to upset him, but as soon as Cooper and Truman leaves, Leland dances.

Deputy Hawk (Michael Horse) goes to the house of Harold Smith (Lenny Von Dohlen) and finds him dead via suicide and Laura Palmer's (Sheryl Lee) diary torn to shreds.  Cooper goes over the diary and finds repeated mentions of BOB and descriptions of abuse and molestation at his hands.  He is referred to as a friend of Leland's (Ray Wise).  She also mentions that one day she plans to tell the world the truth about Ben Horne (Richard Beymer). Bobby Briggs (Dana Ashbrook) and Shelley Johnson (Mädcen Amick) attempt to figure out how Shelley is going to survive since she has to quit her job in order t
