 The exchange between her and Bobby at the RR Diner has always puzzled me because you don't see her act/talk that way any other time with anyone else.

Was she seriously flirting with him? Every time I watch that scene I get the feeling I'm missing something because she has to know about Shelley and Bobby...

I sure hope she is a cougar.  She is gorgeous.  But you're right, she didn't show interest in Bobby after that veiled reference in the Pilot.  If I lived in Twin Peaks, I would love for Norma to pursue me.  Although I don't look like Quincy Jones.

"Harry, I'm going to let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don't plan it, don't wait for it, just let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men's store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee. Like this."  -Dale Cooper

I agree. Bobby started trying to flirt with Norma. Frankly, I always thought Norma was making fun of him.

I agree too... And I think she obviously knows about Bobby and Shelly, judging their awkward way of leaving and her look when they're gone and...well, because it's obvious they're together... Besides, I bet the situation looks familiar...

She was in a good mood that morning because she popped into the gas farm before work. Then Hank got parole, putting an end to the good-mood inducing nookie.

Leo also found out about the affair, like, 5 minutes later, and serious whoopass ensued. Probably not the best idea to rile up those teenage hormones after that.

Good call, pineweasel. I would have liked to see Norma with looser morals.

And how about Cooper and Shelly flirting when they first met? Cooper was certainly a p-tease of schoolgirls for someone who made "an oath to uphold certain values."
