#1 When Mardi Gras meets Blue Velvet.

(Lynch's initial idea was to have Frank Booth doing helium for his "Mommy--baby wants blue velvet" thang. I understand it was Dennis Hopper who persuaded him to go with the laughing gas idea.)

#2 its trunk was packed with hay and contained two hula hoops and another whip

You'll get 10 years for the attempted rape Lawrence, but they'll add another 20 for practicing animal husbandry without a license in Louisiana.

#4 What size and color beach balls did he have for inflating with Nitrous? Did they match his outfit?
Did the police keep them?

(beach balls are lower pressure so safer for the lungs. about 1 equals a dose)

Oh and did he have a "special" gas welders license?

#8 A balloon-inflating type cannister, or the little whip-its? A beach ball isn't needed for the latter, and they're small enough to slip into a pocket (see, I'm not totally ignorant of such matters!)
