Who is Walker Laurence

May 26, 2003

Dorian: Bo, have you found Lindsay yet?

Bo: We'll get her, Dorian.

Dorian: In other words, no.

Nora: Dorian, I know that this is a really tough time for you and Blair. I can understand what you're going through.

Dorian: We should have been told that Lindsay was dangerous. I mean, maybe I could have done something to protect my sister.

Bo: Nobody could have predicted something like this, Dorian.

Dorian: I am the head of my family, all right? it was up to me to protect Adie. Me!

Nora: Don't blame yourself, ok, Dorian?

Dorian: I do blame myself. I have failed. I have failed my entire family.

*~*

Blair: So tell me, Troy, how is she really? Is she going to be all right?

Troy: Blair, your mother was without oxygen for a while. I'm afraid she's had a stroke.

Blair: Oh, God.

Dorian: Is she going to recover?

Troy: Well, she has lost movement on her right-hand side, and her speech has been affected, but I do expect her to recover.

Bo: That's good news.

Dorian: Oh, I'm sure it's good news to you because now you only need to charge Lindsay with attempted murder -- that is, assuming you find her.

Blair: Can we just concentrate on mama, please? When can we see her? Can we see her now?

Troy: You can see her now, but make it quick, ok, because she is pretty weak.

Blair: Ok. Thank you. Thank you for everything. Come on, Dorian.

Troy: I'll be here if you need me.

Blair: All right.

Nora: Poor Adie. the few times I did see her, she seemed like a very gentle person.

Bo: She really is.

Nora: But why would Lindsay go and -- why am I even asking that? Because she's nuts, Nora! That's why! If we'd put her in Statesville when she killed Sam, none of this would have happened.

Bo: I'm not ready to convict her on this yet.

Nora: It's not a big leap here, Bo. She flew into another homicidal rage.

Bo: Maybe, but, you know, I'd like to see a motive.

Sister Teresa: Commissioner Buchanan?

Bo: Yes? Hey, Sister Teresa. Hi. You know Nora Buchanan --

Nora: Yes.

Sister Teresa: Yes, hello.

Bo: From the D.A.'S office?

Sister Teresa: I thought this was pretty important, so I thought I'd bring it over to you myself.

Bo: What?

Sister Teresa: A copy of the log from yesterday. You'd asked about any visitors that Lindsay might have had, and a man did come to see her. It was shortly before --

Bo: Walker Flynn?

Nora: Who's walker Flynn?

*~*

Bo: This Walker Flynn -- did you see him when he visited Lindsay?

Sister Teresa: I remember now when he signed the log. I'd say early 30s, nice-looking young man.

Bo: Oh. Anything else?

Sister Teresa: Brown hair, blue eyes.

Bo: All right. Could you work with one of our sketch artists on this?

Sister Teresa: Of course, commissioner.

Bo: Oh, thank you, sister. All right, I'm going to set that up, and then we'll talk soon, ok?

Sister Teresa: Yes. Bless you. Bless you both.

Nora: Thank you, sister.

Troy: Hey, Bo. Listen, I realize I'm not part of this investigation, but I heard that Lindsay was accused.

Bo: That's right.

Troy: Well, just out of curiosity, I'm wondering how sure you are that she's the one who attacked Adie.

Bo: Well, we have evidence that points at Lindsay. Plus, there's the fact that she ran away before we could complete the arrest. Why? Do you have something you think could help?

Troy: Well, I don't know. Several times throughout the night, when Adie was drifting in and out of consciousness, I heard her mutter Lindsay's name and then there was one time where I actually heard her cry out, "Lindsay, Help!"

Bo: Well, thank you, Troy. Thank you.

Troy: Yeah.

Bo: "Lindsay, help"? You know, that's not something you would say about someone who had just tried to smother you.

Nora: No, it isn't, but then again, Adie wouldn't know who was using the pillow. She was attacked while she was sleeping.

*~*

Nora: So Walker Flynn -- you think he's one of Mitch's followers or something?

Bo: Mitch had a brother about the same age as this guy. Supposedly, the brother died when he was a kid.

Nora: So?

Bo: Mitch's brother is named Walker.

Nora: Mitch's dead brother.

Bo: If he is dead.

*~*

Marcie: I just wanted to see if you needed anything, sir.

Bo: No, thank you, Marcie, but I'll sure let you know if I do. 

[Bo laughs]

[Knock on door]

Bo: Hey. Could you bring me the background check on Walker Flynn as soon as it comes in, and --

Officer: I'll check on that, sir.

Bo: Yeah, before you do, though, cross-reference it with the file on Mitch Lawrence, ok?

Officer: Yes, sir.

Bo: Thank you.

Nora: Kind of a long shot, isn't it, that Walker Flynn would be Mitch Lawrence's brother? I mean, why'd the family think he was dead all these years?

Bo: Well, I think it's a family trait with the Lawrence's, you know? He had this whole town convinced he was dead for years.

Nora: Yeah, well, so what? So -- so brother Walker comes back to tie up loose ends for Mitch?

Bo: I guess that's one possibility.

Nora: Well, that would explain why he went to go see Lindsay.

Bo: See, Lindsay knew something about Mitch Lawrence's death but we'll probably never get it out of her.

Nora: Ok, so what does Adie have to do with any of this?

Bo: Addie was found in Lindsay's room.

Nora: So someone was really trying to kill Lindsay?

[Knock on door]

Gabrielle: Hi.

Bo: Hey, honey.

Gabrielle: Oh, I'm sorry, Nora.

Nora: Oh, no, no, it's fine. I got -- I got things to do. I'll be right back.

Bo: Ok.

Gabrielle: I'm sorry. I just -- I wanted to come by and see if I could take you out for a bite to eat, but I see you're very busy, and then I thought I could cook you something, but my cooking's not very good.

Bo: Oh, I wish could get away.

Gabrielle: I know. It's all right. I'll see you back at home, ok?

Bo: But it'll be late. You know, I have to go by that Angel Square party.

Gabrielle: Oh, right, right.

Bo: I think I should at least make an appearance.

Gabrielle: Yeah -- no, no, you should, you should.

Bo: Why don't you meet me there?

Gabrielle: Meet you there?

Bo: Yeah!

Gabrielle: Oh! ok. bye.

Bo: Bye.

Nora: Bye. You and Gabrielle -- things look good.

Bo: Yeah.

Nora: I'm glad. I'm glad you got through that whole mess with Matthew and stuff like that.

Bo: Yeah, so far, so good.

Nora: Good. Good to see you happy, Bo.

Bo: Thanks.

Nora: Uh, lipstick on the left collar.

[Knock on door]

Officer: That's everything I could find on Flynn.

Bo: Oh, great. Thank you.

Officer: Sure.

Nora: Well?

Bo: Walker Flynn was adopted the same year that walker Lawrence died. Mitch's father was an Evangelical minister.

Nora: Yeah, that I heard.

Bo: Mm-hmm. Yeah, well, the Flynn's were members of his congregation at one time.

Nora: So Walker Flynn could be Mitch Lawrence's brother. Oh, for God's sake. So why's he here? What, is he back for revenge?

Bo: We got to find this guy.

Walker: Ahem.

*~*

Bo: All right, well, keep me posted. I don't care if I have to set up a task force. we have to track down this Walker Flynn.

Nora: Or Lawrence.

Walker: How about I save you the trouble?
