if Bobby killed someone why wasn't he turned in? I mean James said somethin about Laura tellin him about it right? in tp/fwwm, why was Bobby out free?
Because Bobby is awesome; plain and simple...
There was a fiish..iinn the percolatrr!
yeah, but Agent Cooper should have kept on his toes about it. bad boy bobby got away with it.
I guess Coop never knew about that... James and Donna didn't tell him, who knows why... Personal investigation bullshit, as I mentioned recently?
hmm... something else to address in my fan fic.
Er, would you like some lemonade? I also have some saltines and some apple butter. Or would you like to wash your hands?
If I remember right, James told Donna that Laura said Bobby "might" have killed someone, so I don't think he knew for sure. Really, it's just a way of getting it across in the pilot that (a) Bobby is dangerous, and we should watch out for him as the story unfolds, and (b) that he is a reasonable suspect for Laura's murder. In my opinion, this is one of the ways in which FWWM is out of step with the overall story/series, as I don't believe that the Bobby of the TV series ever had it in him to kill anyone.

That's definitely true but not a bad thing really. It's nice that FWWM presents a kind of skewed nightmare-ish vision of the Twin Peaks of the TV series. After all, the film was from Laura's POV, a sexual abuse victim, rather than a kooky cop.
I agree with Morpha's post, myself. Bobby's an awesome character. Probably my favourite in the show. He is definitely introduced as a possible suspect, what with the drugs in James' bike trick, etc. But later in the series it's revealed that he's an insecure, and pretty sweet guy.
All this makes me want one of the Men In Black to come and erase my memory so i can re-watch the show with my TP-virginity intact. Poppy is off out on a work's christmas do on Friday, so i'm gonna have a TP marathon.

EXACTLY! Wow..I could've not said it any better! I feel the same way.I miss those days when I saw TP for first time. I wish I could turn back the 90s. I feel like I grew up in Twin Peaks :) Well..I guess in a way I did :)
As for Bobby, I always loved him, his boyish charm and sweetness..He was cute throughout the whole show,even when he was a bad boy :D
Beware of BOB
When I call out no one can hear me,when I whisper he thinks the message is for him only..my little voice inside my throat,I always think there must be something that I've done or something I can do...But no one no one comes to help,he says,a little girl like you...
