Dallas (2012) s03e07 Episode Script

- Previously on "Dallas" - Hope I'm not interrupting something.
If I don't have a job, you're bitching about child support I do have a job, you're bitching about your schedule.
Figure it out, Heather.
Bo! That was the best part about going public.
I was able to buy up controlling interest in the company.
What part of that outfit is business casual? You don't really think John Ross would cheat on you with her, do you? I like to know that I'm the only other other woman.
Cheating husband my favorite kind of case.
Once Pamela realizes the full extent of the Ewings' betrayal, she'll want revenge as much as I do.
- When does the CIA go after drug dealers? - We don't.
These guys are ex-commando of the Mexican army.
Drugs give them the money and the influence to take down the Mexican government.
That son of yours is something else.
I know the sound of a lie.
And you are an expert at it, just like your father.
I am not my father! Ma'am, I got a court order here to take you into custody for a mandatory psychiatric evaluation.
She's out of control, Uncle Bobby.
What have you done, John Ross? I'll be voting on her behalf to take Ewing Global public.
And there's not a damn thing you can do to stop me.
The fact that she was incarcerated in the first place is outrageous.
She's not a danger to herself or anyone else, for that matter.
The judge who ordered the involuntary hold thought otherwise.
Besides, given her history of alcoholism, I'm wary of releasing her too soon.
She smelled of alcohol when she was brought in.
Dr.
Eglert, she admitted to us that she'd had one drink.
Whether she had one drink or 10, an alcoholic is an alcoholic.
She's going to need treatment.
We'll see to it that she gets all the help that she needs.
But locking her up is gonna do more harm than good.
Doctor Years ago, her husband put her in a sanitarium because of her drinking.
She was profoundly traumatized.
Let her go before any more damage is done.
Please.
I'm afraid it's not up to me.
The judge who issued the hold has to review the admittance report before I'm able to release her.
Well, h how long will that take? I don't know.
I was just trying to be polite.
H he was rude.
Rude! - You're letting me go? - Yes because you can't seem to take no for an answer, someone very important to me got the wrong impression, cost me a great deal.
Mr.
Ewing, I'm so sorry.
I promise it won't happen again.
You're right.
It won't.
Because you're fired.
Mr.
Ewing, please don't do this.
I need you to find out whatever you can about Candace Shaw.
No one's ever chased me like that before.
She might have been trying to work an angle.
Maybe she sued a boss for sexual harassment in the past I don't know.
I'm cute, but I'm not that cute.
You inherited your daddy's cynical heart.
Yeah, like he always said, you only want to be surprised when someone does the right thing.
Now go home and kiss your wife.
Drew? I still can't sleep, Elli.
What's wrong? I can't close my eyes.
I just see the explosion over and over again.
I killed those babies.
I killed them.
It wasn't your fault, Drew.
You didn't know what would happen.
I ran away.
I I just I shouldn't have run.
I have to turn myself in.
Spending the rest of your life in jail won't bring those babies back.
- I can't live like this anymore.
- If you come back to Dallas, you will just reopen old wounds.
Christopher is trying to put this behind him.
Pamela's trying to make a fresh start, okay? Opening things up, hurting her all over again, that's not the answer, okay? Just stay at Joaquín's.
I will come down as soon as I can.
I promise.
What's wrong? That was Drew.
He wants to turn himself in.
Besides Carmen, he's the only one who knows we grew up together.
If he comes back to Dallas, he might figure out what we're up to.
He could ruin all our plans.
I know.
I think I talked him out of it.
Good.
Well I have something.
I know Christopher's been putting you in an uncomfortable position by asking you to play double agent for him.
This should put a stop to that.
I felt you tossing and turning all night.
How are you this morning? Seeing my mother drunk like that, it took me back to being a kid doing whatever I could do to keep her from the bottle.
I don't know.
Maybe I overreacted last night.
She was out of control and needed help.
Sometimes people just need to be saved from themselves.
She kept seeing me as J.
R.
She thought I was only out for myself.
But everything I did, I did for us.
I can't ever trust my mother again.
This I.
P.
O.
is a way for us to make sure that we're the only ones making the decisions.
It's us against the world.
And we're gonna win.
I found a way to take control of Ewing Global - once the I.
P.
O.
goes through.
- How? While J.
R.
was working on an oil deal with Sheik Sherif Ali in Abu Dhabi last year, he learned of the Sheik's interest in bidding on arctic leases.
Except, by U.
S.
law, he couldn't bid without partnering up with an American company.
J.
R.
assured him that Ewing Energies would be that partner.
We cut him in on the arctic leases if he agrees to give us the necessary capital to purchase the controlling interest in the I.
P.
O.
Exactly.
The Sheik is gonna be in Vegas this weekend for a high-stakes poker game.
What do you say we pay him a little visit and close a deal? Morning.
Hey hey.
So, you think Nicolas is such a good guy now, Elena? What are you talking about? What? You didn't hear? He backed John Ross' vote for an I.
P.
O.
However Nicolas voted it's because that's what Cliff wanted.
Y your boyfriend's a corporate raider.
I mean, this I.
P.
O.
is just the opening a guy like that looks for to take control of a company.
And John Ross was reckless enough to give it to him.
He has no ulterior motives.
He's acting as Cliff's proxy.
That's all.
How can you be so sure that everything he says is the truth? You wanted me to find out who Nicolas was before 1997.
Well, I did.
Follow me.
Javier Hernandez? That's Nicolas' real name.
When you told me he was hiding something about his past, I pressed him.
He told me.
Where did you get this information? I called down to the state archives office in Mexico requesting the information they had on that name along with Nicolas' details his birth date, his parents' birth names, the hospital where he was born.
It came in this morning.
I was going to show you as soon as you walked in.
Christopher, what were you expecting to find? Carlos Del Sol, the most connected guy in Mexico, couldn't find a thing on Nicolas' past.
Someone doesn't go through all the trouble of having their past professionally erased for no reason.
When I asked Nicolas why he went through all the trouble, he said it was not about hiding who he was.
It was about protecting himself from the parents who abandoned him when he was a baby.
The last thing in the world he wanted was for them to come back into his life looking for money.
You, uh You really like this guy, don't you? I do.
You know, when you came to me, asked me for a job, I said "yes" because I thought it would bring us closer together.
But I guess it only moved us further apart.
Dallas.
Maybe he just doesn't like brunettes.
Maybe you just been pretending to be a secretary for so long you forgot how to be a whore.
- I'll figure out a way to - No! We're done with you.
And since my mother and I provided for you, while in our employment, with a car and a townhouse, I'm gonna have to ask you for the keys back to both.
Please, Mr.
Ryland.
If you kick me out, I have to go back home.
I cannot go back there.
Well, darling, you got no one to blame but yourself.
Oh, and before you leave town, I'm gonna need the dress I gave you back, too.
Go on.
Well, hell.
Sue Ellen? Bobby's doing everything he can to get you released, but it might take a bit more time.
I thought you could use a change of clothes.
I keep wondering if I if I did the right thing for Pamela.
Whenever I consider telling her the truth, I look at her and I see myself back when J.
R.
was cheating on me.
And then I think, "if only someone told him to stop" " then maybe I wouldn't have become an alcoholic.
" But Pamela is stronger than I am.
Maybe I I I shouldn't have protected Pamela.
M maybe maybe I should have just told her about the affair and then let her just get as far away from him as possible.
We did what we thought was right.
And maybe what you did to John Ross was the wake-up call he needed.
He fired his secretary.
No, he he's his father's son.
I should have believed that.
Can I help you? I'm a friend of John Ross' wife, Pamela, and I know you've been coming on to him pretty strong.
Men are like children when it comes to sex, and I don't want to see Pamela get hurt should John Ross make a mistake.
I'd like to offer you a new job.
My father owns Ryland Transport, - and if I talk to him - What are you talking about? Your father just fired me.
You know my father? You were working for my father? Prince Nasir.
John Ross, Pamela Ewing.
His Highness, Prince Nasir, Sheik Ali's wife, Sheikha Nadia.
It's a pleasure to meet you both.
I've been looking forward to sitting down with your father.
My father is not here.
Well, no disrespect, but I was hoping to speak with him directly about the deal that my father and him worked out.
Interesting you should use the word "disrespect" because that is what my father felt when you contacted him.
J.
R.
promised my father that once your family took over Barnes Global, you would reach out to him about the arctic-lease deal.
Your family has been in control for some time, yet today is the first day you made contact.
If I did anything to disrespect your father, I humbly apologize.
That was never my intention.
It was my father, Cliff Barnes.
He's the one who's made any business dealings at Ewing Global next to impossible.
My father and your father had a long history together, one he hoped to continue with you after J.
R.
's passing.
But you come with apologies and your words fall empty.
My father is wise enough to know you tried to make this deal without him and are only here now because you need his help.
Your actions are callous and selfish.
Not only have you disrespected my father, but you have brought dishonor to your father's name, as well.
Our meeting is over.
The sheik and I have a poker game starting soon, so if you will excuse me Christopher.
What are you doing here? I've come to pay for what I've done.
There's nothing you could ever do to make up for what you took from me.
- I'm sorry, Christopher.
- Just go! - Get out of here! - I would do anything to go back and change what happened.
I said leave! I'd give my life to bring them back.
Nothing will ever bring them back.
Please, Christopher.
Finish it.
If I have to live with this pain so do you! Christopher? I thought I'd dealt with the loss of my babies.
I thought I was healing.
But when I saw the man responsible today I just started hitting him.
Over and over again.
I wanted to kill him.
But you stopped.
I wanted to have a family of my own so badly.
I'm not a big one on fate, but maybe that's why we found each other.
You're helping me deal with Bo.
And you're giving me a second chance at a family.
Your voices woke me up.
Sorry, buddy.
Did you come to finish my lego cars, Christopher? I sure did.
Come on.
Let's do it.
Why did you and grandmother hire Candace to seduce John Ross? We were doing it for your own good, Emma.
John Ross Ewing, like his father, is a reprobate and straight-up bastard.
We just needed to show you who you were dealing with.
The only thing you succeeded in proving was that he's a better man than you thought.
John Ross turned Candace down.
Yeah, well, John Ross may not have slept with Candace, but that doesn't change the fact that he's a married man.
Are you deluded enough into thinking that he's gonna leave his wife for you or are you just content in being his little piece on the side? I thought I raised you to think more of yourself than that.
You don't know a damn thing about John Ross and me.
We understand each other.
Oh, so you think you know the real John Ross? I do.
Well You're not the only one he's screwing.
One of those girls there is 16 years old, Emma.
And I got the paperwork to prove it.
It doesn't make me happy to have to hurt you with something so seedy, sweetheart, but I had to show you who the real John Ross is.
You further insult my father by not adhering to his wishes.
I'm just looking for a chance to show your father that I meant no disrespect and that I'm not the man he thinks I am.
My father always used to say that the best way to get to know a man is sit across the table from him.
I noticed Sheikha Nadia admiring my earrings earlier.
Of course.
She recognizes them as having been Catherine the great's.
My family has one of the largest private collections of 18th-century jewelry in the world.
Then you know there's no other pair like them.
If it pleases Sheik Ali, perhaps my husband can use them to buy into the poker game? It looks like your offer has been accepted.
Gentlemen.
Thanks, Derek.
Just, uh let me know when you find Drew.
Glad you're letting the sheriff handle it.
They're gonna get him.
You expecting someone? It's got to be Bo.
Bo, go home.
I want my wife back.
I miss you.
I know I keep screwing up, but I promise you I I can do better.
I promise you.
I'm dying without you.
- Hey! Hey.
- It's not It's not enough you Ewings, you you take away my job and now you're trying to steal my family? Settle down.
You're gonna wake up Michael.
You need to get the hell out of here, Bo.
Go.
I'll show you.
You son of a I'll take him home.
Thank you.
I called your P.
I.
to let her know that Candace had been fired.
She said she sent you something? Now go home and kiss your wife.
I'm not sending it to Pamela.
Why not? She'll see the truth of who John Ross is, see that he's only using her.
That way she'll help us get the evidence - of how they framed her father.
- It was one thing when we thought he was cheating with Candace, but if I had to watch video of someone I loved betraying me with someone I thought was my friend, I I couldn't get over that.
I'm not gonna do that to her.
I'll get justice, Joaquin, but not like this.
All right, Elena.
If there's another way we'll find it.
Jasper.
Yes, this is Nicolas Treviño.
Listen, um, Elena seems to have misplaced the e-mail you sent with the video of John Ross and Emma.
Could you resend it to my e-mail this time? Thank you.
You don't have enough to cover the raise.
My father's watch, one of two things he left me when he died.
He wanted me to carry out his legacy, be the man he taught me to be.
If my father was king, this watch would be his crown, the symbol of everything he was.
I'd like to call.
Full house.
Nice hand, Your Highness.
Full house takes the hand.
I thought by leaving you out of the arctic-lease play, I was showing everybody that I could close a deal that not even my father could close on his own.
I lost sight of the fact that, well, he made you a promise.
And that promise meant more than any deal on the table.
A person's word defines who they are.
And I disgraced myself, my father, and you by not following through with his promise.
And I can only hope to be worthy one day of the legacy he left me.
Thanks for the game.
You threw the game.
You lost the watch on purpose.
Why? I kept seeing that damn watch as an albatross around my neck, always trying to prove one thing or another to everybody else instead of proving who I am to myself.
Without it, maybe I'll be free to be my own man instead of the man everybody else wants me to be.
Well, there were plenty of other ways to get rid of the watch without throwing the hand, John Ross.
Sometimes the only way to win is to show the other person you're not afraid to lose.
Yeah? Thanks, Ewing.
You know, it was, uh Pretty decent of you to take me home last night.
Look, I heard what you said to Heather.
And if you do want to get back on your feet, I'd be happy to give you your old job back at Southfork.
I don't need your damn charity, especially not from the guy that's screwing my wife.
Hey, I get how painful it is seeing your ex and your son spending time with another guy.
But come on.
You're drinking.
You're trying to start fights.
Look, if you don't deal with this now, it's only gonna get worse.
You know, is your anger at Heather for moving on worth throwing away your relationship with your son? If I'd have known getting drunk last night was gonna lead to a lecture from you this morning, I would have never picked up the bottle.
Suit yourself, Bo.
The judge who ordered the hold reviewed my report and left the decision of Sue Ellen's release up to the hospital.
Then we can take her home.
Based on the results of her blood-alcohol and cdt tests, the hospital administration feels it would be opening itself up to an enormous liability if they were to release her before she's been through a proper detox treatment.
She needs to get her alcoholism under control.
Otherwise, she will be a danger to herself.
Doctor, I will personally guarantee she gets the treatment she needs.
And I will sign anything the hospital wants to clear them of legal responsibility.
But it's important she be released today.
Were you able to get me released? You didn't need to lie to us.
The doctor told us you'd been drinking for a while.
You're right.
I need help.
And we're gonna make sure that you get help, Sue Ellen.
But you have to promise to tell us the truth from now on.
I will.
I swear.
I just have to get out of here.
I want to go home.
Well, we're gonna take you out of here.
But not to your home.
We made an agreement with the hospital.
You're gonna be our responsibility.
And for your well-being, you're gonna be staying with us at Southfork.
Southfork? We're gonna make sure you get the help you need to stay sober.
¿qué es esto? J.
R.
? Abuelo? Yeah.
Come on in.
How's Sue Ellen? Oh.
She's doing the best she can under the circumstances.
So, Elena found out who Nicolas was before 1997, but it's a dead end.
You know, it doesn't even matter anymore.
He's a corporate raider.
He's working with Barnes.
And Cliff must have figured out a way to get control of Ewing Global again or he wouldn't move ahead with the I.
P.
O.
Yeah, but John Ross is so hell-bent on taking this company public, he must have a plan of his own to try to purchase a majority stake.
I'm gonna call Calvin Hannah, my buddy over at Goldman Sachs.
If he'll underwrite the I.
P.
O.
, we can at least control where the shares go.
John Ross will know you're trying to stop him.
I mean, there's no way he agrees to let your guy spearhead the I.
P.
O.
Let me take care of that.
What do you want now? My father showed me photographs of John Ross with a 16-year-old hooker and told me he had sex with her.
Except if they did have sex, then he wouldn't have needed you.
What's the real reason my father wanted you to seduce John Ross? He wanted me to get his DNA onto a dress that your father gave me.
Was it this dress? Well, ain't this a nice welcoming committee? Well, your new assistant was kind enough to tell us when you'd be back.
What's so urgent that it couldn't wait 'til tomorrow? John Ross, you have been so anxious to take Ewing Global public that we thought you'd be pleased if we went out and found someone to Shepherd the I.
P.
O.
This is my friend Calvin Hanna, and he has underwritten several very large I.
P.
O.
s.
He's the best man for the job.
He can get us the best market value for our shares.
Nice to meet you, John Ross.
How nice for Cal.
But I don't think you got the supermajority you need to make those type of decisions, Uncle Bobby.
Well, uh And neither do you, John Ross.
Meaning we can keep things at a stalemate for weeks and you'll miss out on the arctic leases or you can accept Cal here as the guy and we'll start tomorrow.
Fine.
Welcome aboard, Cal.
Gonna be a pleasure working with you.
Looking forward to it, John Ross.
Look.
I hope you know I only did what I did to help you, mama.
You only did it to help yourself.
All right.
Time for recriminations is over.
Sue Ellen is gonna be staying here at Southfork while she works on her problems, and I'm going to see to it that whatever the problem is between the two of you is fixed.
You know, you handled that nephew of yours the same way you used to handle J.
R.
Thanks for coming aboard, pal.
Eh, I've been watching your blind side since we played ball in college which, as I remember, was no easy task considering how much you hated staying in the pocket.
You really think John Ross is gonna come after me? Oh, I'm sure of it.
And when he does, make him think he got you.
All right.
Drew.
Where did you get these? J.
R.
had switched the deeds.
J.
R.
got the parcel that belonged to your dad, which was rich in oil.
And your dad got his, which was worthless.
Drew, what are you doing here? How long have you known that J.
R.
switched the deed to papi's land? Please listen to me, okay? I can explain.
I watched papi die trying to drill a dry hole.
I watched him die for nothing.
He wasted his life on a dream that was already taken from him and I wasted mine hating myself - for not being able to save him.
- I know.
Everything that's happened is because of J.
R.
's betrayal.
Their greed took everything from our family.
I know.
Okay.
Please listen to me.
Joaquin and I have a plan.
We are going to get justice for papi.
We are going to get justice for our No, you listen to me! The time for planning justice is over.
Wait.
Please, wait.
Yep? All right.
Who was it? Security.
Someone's at the front gate.
My father has had a change of heart.
He has decided to supply you with the capital you need to buy controlling interest in Ewing Global when your I.
P.
O.
happens.
That's incredible news.
Thank you.
A and it goes without saying that, uh, His Highness will be my partner in our arctic-lease play.
One more thing.
When you gambled the watch, my father saw J.
R.
in you.
You were humble enough to know you were wrong and brave enough to risk something you cared deeply about to prove it.
I don't know, I don't know.
He just ran out I can't find him anywhere.
I am I'm really scared, Nicholas.
It'll be all right.
I promised you we'd take care of each other.
I'll use every resource I have to find Drew.
Okay.
Now go home and kiss your wife.
Sorry I'm late.
I had to deal with some family issues.
Hunter McKay.
His grandfather and my daddy fought their fair share of battles back in the day.
When you offered me a chance to take down the Ewings, you didn't say anything about midnight meetings with Mexican gangsters.
- They're businessmen.
- With guns! They hardly ever use them.
Come on.
Mr.
Treviño.
I'm glad you could make it.
I think you should know you are rapidly using whatever little patience I have left for you.
I bring good news.
The Ewing Global I.
P.
O.
is moving forward.
When the company goes public, we'll buy enough shares to give you the controlling interest.
And you're Hunter McKay.
Yeah.
And, uh, I'm setting up the collection of shell corporations we'll be using to front the stock purchases as we as we speak.
By the time the Ewings and Cliff Barnes realize what happened, you'll be in control of the company, free to launder billions of drug profits for years to come.
Well, let's hope this plan of yours works, Treviño.
It will work.
Okay.
And if it doesn't, hmm? You know they say the death of a child can be the worst, most painful thing a person can experience.
I'd hate for you to find out how very true those words can be.
You can see yourself out, gentlemen.
There's just, um One more thing.
I need your help finding Drew Ramos.
