This episode made me laugh a lot, and I believe the biggest belly laughs came from "How many times do I have to tell you, this is what we do in the FBI!"... Those guys were hilarious. Did anybody see anything deeper to how they were acting, any special connection to Cole's hearing problem, other than that they were all dealing with the way Cole talks on the phone? Or was it just weird and funny to paint a picture?

At any rate, if the Fuscoes looked up Dougie's finger prints, then even if they discarded the search, wouldn't it have pinged the FBI? Shouldn't this help those guys very easily recognize which Douglas Jones they need? If a Douglas Jones had recently escaped prison AND gone missing from the FBI years ago AND just had his prints searched, surely they should go seek him out, right?!?!?

I kinda wish we'd see them interrogate 22 Douglas Joneses (all Tulpas) before finding Dale Cooper, but with only 4 hours left, I'm sure they'll find them in Part 15. Because remember...

"Tulpa"!! Is that the word Tammy said when Cole asked her to discuss a blue rose? I just looked it up, and it makes sense. I mouthed "manufactured," expecting her to say that, but it looks like "tulpa" works for both Dougie and a blue rose.

The FBI definitely has the prints. LVPD sent them to the national fingerprint data base (I googled it and posted agout it in another thread). It is operated by the FBI.

Both Las Vegas agents right handed and direct, the one standing has no idea what to do with the right hand(how to directly carry out the task as if the technique has already been mastered), so he is directly bringing this up causing doubt and panic; while the one at the desk knows what to do, but cannot teach the standing one, just assert directly what they do as if it should be over and done with(slamming the right hand while the left remains still), becomes infuriated since the FBI has to know how to do these things and he is responsible to Cole.  Neither one knows how to be 'left handed', properly dealing with lacking knowledge, so the desk guy cannot teach the standing one, and the standing cannot 'watch and learn'.  Thus the misfiring: direct incompetence meets direct outburst of anger, stops there, repeat.....'how many times have I told YOU?!'.....been through this many times before....
