Dallas (2012) s03e08 Episode Script

Where There's Smoke

Previously on Dallas.
The doctor told us you'd been drinking for a while.
You're right.
I need help.
For your well-being, you're gonna be staying with us at Southfork.
- You're fired.
- I'll figure out a way to No.
We're done with you.
What's the real reason my father wanted you to seduce John Ross? He wanted me to get his DNA onto a dress.
Was it this dress? I've come to pay for what I've done.
Christopher? Now go home and kiss your wife.
I'm not sending it to Pamela.
You Ewings, you.
You take away my job and now you're trying to steal my family? - Settle down.
- You need to get the hell out of here, Bo.
Go.
How long have you known that J.
R.
Switched the deed to Papi's land? The time for planning justice is over.
Wait.
Please, wait.
I need your help finding Drew Ramos.
I can still see him staring at me with so much hate in his eyes.
For everything J.
R.
Did to our family, for our father's death.
I tried to tell him that we would get justice - but he wouldn't listen to me.
- We'll get him to listen, Ellie.
This has all gotten way too ugly.
The lies, the tape of John Ross and Emma having sex, Drew.
You know, maybe you and I should both just cut our losses and tell the Ewings the truth before we both become something we don't wanna become.
We made a pact as children that we would take care of each other.
Trust me to find Drew and make sure he's safe.
We're so close to the end, Elena.
Don't give up now, please.
Now, once my wife gets here, we're gonna surprise her with the plans.
If she wants to change anything My taste is cowboy.
My wife is the Ritz.
What she wants, she gets, OK? Whatever she wants.
So this is what I was thinking.
Give me a second, all right? Now, before your boxers get all waddled up Exactly what part of "I won't let you destroy Southfork" did you not understand? I'm not gonna destroy anything.
I just want to build a proper master suite for my new bride because, in case you haven't noticed, we're sleeping in J.
R.
's bedroom.
I know how you operate, John Ross.
I let you take down one wall, pretty soon, all of Southfork is coming down.
You cannot stop me from rebuilding on my own half.
Over my dead body, boy.
Don't tempt me, Uncle Bobby.
Where were we? Come on over here.
Is it called above-ground, like a swimming pool, if it's up here? Anyways, a double vanity.
I'm thinking we'll mount the windows here.
Now go home and kiss your wife.
I got no idea.
I wish she She'll be here soon anyway.
That's right.
Get on in here.
Get on in here.
Come on.
Come on.
- Nice face, Ewing.
- Glad you like it.
Thought it was finally time to move on.
Well, I guess you're lucky I like dimples.
You up for a break? I brought hot chocolate.
You trying to sweep me off my feet? I wanted to show you how much I appreciated yesterday.
For being there for me after what happened with Drew.
A guy shows up on my doorstep with bloody knuckles and tears in his eyes you think I'm gonna turn him away? You know, I've spent so much of my life hanging onto things.
I think I let my feelings of abandonment and betrayal define who I was.
But yesterday something lifted when I was with you.
I suddenly felt like I could breathe.
You are a breath of fresh air in my life, Heather.
And if you'll have me, I'd like to take the next step in our relationship.
- I got a kid, Christopher.
- I like your kid.
I got a kid who had his heart broken by his father.
I can't risk his heart getting broken by another man.
No matter how much I want that man in my life.
Look, I am not going to hurt you.
I promise.
You're a really great guy.
You're a guy who stands up for me.
But you wanna play house and wake up in my bed and have my son, Michael, start thinking of you as a dad.
That's a big deal, Christopher.
So you got to stop and think about whether that's what you really want.
Sorry.
Hold on.
Hello? What? No, I'm gonna call the police.
Thank you.
- What is it? Bo went to Michael's school.
He took Michael.
Come on.
Up and at them already, baby? Pamela, where you hiding? Little early for you, isn't it, Bum? Well, no rest for the bleary, John Ross.
I got that information on Candace you wanted.
You were right about that girl.
We got a problem.
- How I've missed your cooking, mami.
- Andres.
What happened to your face, mijo? Who did this to you? What are you doing back here? - I need to make things right.
- No, Andres.
Don't do something stupid, mijo, por favor.
Here.
Give this to Emma, OK? I love you.
I'll see you soon.
Did you like the sober coach the hospital sent over? She was just fine.
We have a lot of the same experiences.
She's been in recovery for 25 years.
Relapsed after the first 5.
And estranged from a daughter.
I think she'll be able to understand and relate to what I'm going through.
Yeah, I'm proud of you for facing this.
You should be, too.
Well, since I can't drink, how about a nice cup of tea? A cup of Southfork's finest coming right up.
- Ann? - What's wrong? - My God.
- Pamela.
Are you all right? - What happened? - I'm getting you out of here.
OK.
Come on, honey.
It's all right.
Let's get you out of these wet clothes.
- What's happening? - I'm gonna call the doctor.
- No.
- Pamela, what's the matter? Now go home and kiss your wife.
Oh, sweetheart, it's over between John Ross and Emma.
And we're so sorry you had to find out this way.
You mean you've known about this? You've known about this and you didn't tell me? We didn't want to hurt you.
How long have you known? How long have you been looking at me, feeling sorry for me? It's John Ross and Emma that should be ashamed, not you.
We tried to get them to stop so that you wouldn't find out anything about this.
I'm his wife.
I should know who my husband is screwing.
So I can decide whether I wanna be with him.
Well, we wanted to protect you, Pamela.
That's all we were trying to do.
Get out.
Get out! I got to get out of here for a while.
No.
Sue Ellen, I am not gonna let you be self-destructive.
We thought we were doing the right thing.
Together.
- It backfired.
- What backfired? Annie? Sue Ellen, what's going on? John Ross and Emma have been having an affair, Bobby.
Sue Ellen and I found out just before the wedding.
We were trying to stop it.
We thought it would be best not to tell Pamela, since we thought the affair was over.
But someone maliciously emailed Pamela a video of John Ross and Emma having sex.
I knew I should have told you.
But every time it has something to do with Emma, I feel like It was me, Bobby.
I wanted it kept quiet.
With all due respect, Sue Ellen, you are not my wife.
We're supposed to be partners, Annie.
You swore you wouldn't keep things from me again.
I know.
I don't know why l Maybe I was ashamed.
What is it that's so hardwired in you that you keep the most important events in your life secret from your husband? Southfork is my home! I was born in this house and I will protect it and every person in it with my life! Sending that video was not malicious, Ann.
It was cruel.
You don't know it was Emma who sent that video, Bobby.
Really, Annie? After all of this, you don't think she's capable of that? I got to get some air.
When I get back, I want Emma out of my house.
Please tell your ex-husband he is responsible for her safety from now on.
Christopher? What's going on? Heather's ex-husband took Michael from school.
They've disappeared.
I called in some favors put Bo's license plate in the system but no one's spotted him.
And because he's Michael's father, there's no crime without specific intent to harm or abscond.
No, no.
He took my son when he wasn't supposed to.
Without evidence of threats, it's a civil matter, not criminal.
You get your lawyer to file for a writ of attachment, then we'll have the authority to get Michael back for you.
What if he's using again? You saw him last night.
He wasn't in his right mind.
There's no telling what kind of state he could be in now.
As bad as Bo can be, you said it yourself.
He loves Michael.
He wouldn't do anything to hurt him.
Do you have any idea where he might be? God, I could give you a list of bars as long as your arm.
But the truth is, he could be anywhere, Christopher.
OK, well, text them to me, along with any friends or relatives, anywhere you think he could be and I'll check it out.
Look, you go home in case Bo comes to his senses and brings Michael back.
I'm gonna get a jacket and come with you.
I need to get away from here for a while.
I'll explain in the car.
I'll keep pushing to get this bumped up to an Amber alert, get more eyes out there looking for them.
All right, thanks, Derrick.
Hey.
Hey.
We're gonna find him.
John Ross.
All that chasing me around the office, and I realized you never invited me to your apartment, Candace.
Well, it was always an open invitation with you.
Now, that is just the type of hospitality I was hoping for.
Thanks.
Looks like you're packing.
I never meant for you to have to leave town.
Well, can't keep this apartment without a job, John Ross.
I'm downsizing.
Hm You got another man in your life, Candy? Because I'm pretty sure I wasn't paying you enough to afford a swanky place like this.
Or is that why you were so hot to get me in bed? Come on, John Ross.
You could do a lot worse than me.
How could I change your mind? There might be something you can do to get me to change my mind.
But the funny thing about Harris Ryland taking me to a whorehouse, showering me with two pretty call girls.
I don't know.
Maybe it's a coincidence that I am now being showered again by another pretty girl.
But I don't believe in coincidences.
I know that you're a call girl, Candy.
I know you were arrested two years ago for prostitution.
And I'm willing to bet that you're working for Harris Ryland.
You tell me why Harris forced those two girls on me and why he wanted me to sleep with you.
You answer those two questions for me, I might let you keep this little swanky place of yours.
Hell, I might even pay all your bills.
Mija, where have you been? I've been trying to reach you.
I was at Joaquin's.
Mama, what's wrong? Drew.
He's in Dallas.
He found me at the market.
- Did he call you? - No.
He didn't.
I called the police to see if they were still searching for him from before.
They said they think Drew is still in Mexico.
Maybe he'll just go back to Mexico and forget what he did here.
Yeah, mama.
Let's hope so.
Madam, Mr.
Ewing has arrived.
What a pleasure it is to see you back at the establishment.
If you're looking for something that's not on our menu, all you need to do is ask.
I'm sure there are a number of girls who'd be eager to cater to your brand of depravity.
You've already tried that once, Madam Judith.
As I'm sure you've guessed by my being here, I've had a peek at the cards you're holding.
Now, I know that girl you tried to set me up with was 16.
But I didn't screw her.
So you sent Candace after me to try and grab, shall we say, the remaining piece of the DNA puzzle you needed to put me in jail for bedding a minor.
If I set out to put you in jail, Mr.
Ewing, you wouldn't be here smiling that insufferably smug smile at me now.
Be that as it may.
You and your son need to cease and desist coming after me.
I now know that you own this fine establishment.
And Candace will testify that you tried to frame me for something I didn't do.
So, what do you say you put a leash on that son of yours and I won't put a leash on you by throwing you in jail? Regardless of what you think about Harris, he did what he did to protect Emma.
Emma is quite capable of taking care of herself.
Fact is, I am surprised you haven't given her the responsibility she deserves at Ryland Transport, given the disappointment in your son.
I'm beginning to think that it's the women in your family that really have the heads for business.
I am touched by the compliment, Mr.
Ewing, so please forgive the terribly old-fashioned question I am about to ask you.
What are your intentions toward my granddaughter? I'm a married man like you pointed out.
So I cannot in good conscience tell you that my intentions are honorable.
So let's be clear on this.
Harris and I will do anything in our power to protect Emma.
Just so that we're clear too.
I will do anything to protect my family.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
So, what do you think of your young suitor now? I enjoy him and he enjoys me.
I have no expectations of him leaving his wife.
John Ross wants nothing more than to get a foot in the door at Ryland transport.
Once he's in, he will kick you aside.
You have the pictures of John Ross with the 16-year-old.
And you have the dress.
Use them.
I know from personal experience what pleasure strong men can give women like us and how sometimes our hearts get involved even when we don't want them to.
Be smart, my darling girl.
They heel better when they have a leash around their neck.
You and my sister should have told me the truth when you found it.
Your sister and I didn't wanna burden you with this, Drew.
We wanted to come to you when things had been avenged.
So your anger didn't cause you to make more bad choices.
All the bad choices I have made are the result of what J.
R.
Did to my father.
Listen to me.
Elena and I have put in place an intricate plan that will take everything from the Ewings.
All you need to do is be patient.
Go back to Mexico, freed from your guilt and let us set you and your family free.
The Ewings killed my father.
Our father, as surely as if they'd put a gun in his hand and pulled the trigger.
This is a blood feud that can only be settled with blood.
Come with me to avenge our father.
Avenge the man who raised you, Joaquin.
No, you are being irrational, Drew, like you've always been irrational since Enrique died.
This is exactly what your sister and I wanted to avoid.
Our plan won't put us all in jail.
- Let's call Elena now.
- I already talked to Elena.
I will do it alone.
Stupid.
You bring me more news about the IPO with Ewing Global? Your men did not find Drew Ramos and now we have a problem.
You mean you have a problem.
Drew Ramos is out for blood against the Ewings.
If he reaches them and tells them anything, our plan will be ruined.
I know I'm the one in debt but it is the Ewing deal that puts the cartel much closer to overthrowing the Mexican government.
OK.
What do you need? Put every man you have in Dallas out finding Drew Ramos now! Nobody's seen Bo in a couple of weeks.
Let's try the Pastime Tavern down the road.
All right.
Fine.
Ann try calling you again? No.
I think she knows I need time to cool off.
And have you? Cooled off? - Derrick.
- Mesquite police called me.
They spotted Bo's car at the rodeo.
He's there with the boy.
You can't let him go.
I'll ask the Mesquite sheriff to keep an eye on Bo and the boy - until the boy's mom arrives.
- Thank you.
I'll try and at least keep it on two wheels.
Heather, they found him.
Mesquite rodeo.
We're heading there now.
Well, well, well, I was just thinking about you.
Is something wrong? I spoke to Candace.
She told you about the dress, then? What my father was going to do to you.
I got her to give it to me.
I got rid of it for you, John Ross.
- You threw it away? - To protect you.
- Why didn't you tell me? - Don't be so cynical, John Ross.
We're in this together.
In fact, that's why I called.
My grandmother just told me that she's gonna start training me to take over Ryland Transport.
- I'm in.
- Well, I like the sound of that.
I'm at the Omni.
Come over.
I want someone to celebrate with.
And I'm not taking no for an answer.
All right, I got a couple of things to finish and I'll be right over.
- We have a problem, Harris.
- One of the dalmatians get loose? I'm glad you find yourself amusing.
What do you want, mother? John Ross knows all about your farcical plan with the 16-year-old and Candace.
He's threatening to throw us both in jail if I don't make you heel.
I will take care of it, mother.
Yes, you will.
Shit.
Michael.
Hey, buddy.
You all right? My dad didn't mean to hurt anyone.
He just wanted that cop to leave us alone.
- Yeah, I know.
- Michael.
Michael.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
You told me to stop and think about it this morning.
Well, I did.
And whatever happens from here on out, I'm in.
All the way.
Oh, come here, boy.
Let me look at you.
Hi.
Are you OK? - Will you watch him for a second? - Yeah.
If you were any friend of your brother's, you would have called me that second he showed up here and sent him straight home.
Look, he knew that he shouldn't have taken Michael but he felt cut off from his family and he wanted to get back up on a bull and prove to his son that he wasn't a loser.
And I had to give him that.
Then the cops showed up.
He went ballistic.
He picked a fight with five cops and then ran off.
Well, that was a stupid thing to do because now there's a warrant out for his arrest.
Who are you? I'm his former employer.
Bobby Ewing.
- So you must be Christopher.
- Yeah, I am.
You can't just take a man's job and then steal his family.
Bo cost himself his family.
And he's deluded if he blames anyone else.
But he does.
Bo's headed back to Dallas.
He's coming for everyone at Southfork.
Mama, I promise, OK? The minute I know anything, I'll let you know, ok? OK.
I love you.
Please tell me you know something.
My mom is worried sick.
Hopefully, Drew's come to his senses and is headed back to Mexico.
I can't keep lying like this.
It's not me.
I feel like I've been living in a fog, thirsting for revenge.
Everyone I thought of as my friends, my family, Christopher.
Christopher blamed you for what Drew did.
I lied to all of them and I pushed them all away.
Christopher never hurt my father.
J.
R.
Did.
He's dead.
What about me? I'm your family.
I love you.
I love you, too, Joaquin but I feel like I've been using everyone around me, including you.
Not me, Ellie.
You've never used me.
You're my destiny.
Emma has to move back in with you.
Everyone's found out about her affair with John Ross.
Bobby's furious.
He told me she has to leave.
I'm just sick about it, Harris.
I mean, I'm her mother.
Now, I know she's behaved abominably but Bobby has no right to throw her out, not while the cartel could be out there waiting to hurt her.
And I'm so angry.
But I don't know who I'm more angry at.
Emma, Bobby or myself.
How about you be angry with me? That's always a good place to start.
Now, I made this mess.
I will clean it up.
I promise.
Now, how about you come inside and have a drink? Because I know you could use one.
What's the first comfort food that comes to mind? Um Bacon and cheese on white toast.
It's the first thing I had when my family got to Southfork.
Coming right up.
It's crazy, everything that's happened in that house, not to feel - Repulsed? - Afraid.
Every time I came here when I was young, even when things were good between us, I always felt so unsettled.
That's called my mother.
- I'm sorry I was so weak, Annie.
- Weak? Back then, you were the strongest man I knew.
Yeah, strong to you, maybe, but I'd let her control me too much, listened to her too much.
And it all went awry.
Well, it wasn't just you.
I was young and reckless.
Running away from a life I didn't want.
You know, I think if I had paused for one second, I would have seen I was too young and too screwed up to think running off with anyone at 17 was a good idea.
I don't know.
I think we could have worked, Annie.
I loved you.
I just think we never had a chance.
We should have never remained in this house, not with that woman living here.
She destroys everything she ever touches.
She destroyed the most important part of my life, you.
- I should go.
- I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Annie.
I'm sorry.
Listen.
Please let my man take you home Sorry, I had to run out.
I hope you found my surprise and liked it.
I love you.
Call me back, babe.
I know how angry you are at me, Pamela, and I know how humiliated you must feel.
But I did it to protect you from the pain.
The same pain I felt when I found out about J.
R.
's infidelities.
I'm not you.
I'm not a weak, sniveling drunk like you.
Come on, now.
You're making me drink alone.
Darling, you're tempting fate wearing that lingerie.
Well, hello, fate.
Pamela, please just don't Don't do anything you're gonna regret.
Love what you're wearing.
May I join you? - Hey.
Hey.
- Pamela.
Hey.
What's going on? Emma, call 911 now.
- Oh, God.
- That's Bo's truck.
- Annie! - Sue Ellen! Someone needs to get here immediately.
Wake up, baby! Wake up! Annie! Sue Ellen!
