From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Special Agent Sam Stanley is a fictional FBI agent played by Kiefer Sutherland in the David Lynch movie, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me. Assisting Special Agent Chester Desmond, Stanley uses his forensics expertise to investigate the murder of Teresa Banks.
Sam Stanley was actually mentioned once in the original series. In the pilot, during the scene in which Agent Cooper is examining Laura Palmer's corpse, he speaks into his dictaphone something along the lines of: "Don't bring it to Sam, Albert's a little more on the ball with this." Lynch most likely created the character from this line.
