Dallas s03e25 Episode Script
188160 - A House Divided
It was crooked! And I believe you knew that.
You'll regret this.
- Is that a threat, Vaughn? - A promise.
I've put up with all the wheeling and dealing and backstabbing I'm going to.
We leave in the morning.
You're a drunk and an unfit mother.
The sooner we have you put away, the better off you're gonna be.
He's gotta be stopped.
I can't rely on anyone else to do what I have to do.
Now, you people got your story.
I've got work to do.
One more question, sir.
Did Ewing Oil invest all of its capital in those leases and does nationalization mean the end of the Ewing empire? I think my son better answer that.
Well, thank you, Dad.
That's really two questions, but Yes, we diversified, if that's what you wanna know.
What are your other investments, Mr.
Ewing? I can't reveal that at this time but we were able to get into another deal before they nationalized the wells.
Did you suffer any losses? Well, yes.
Ewing Oil suffered quite a few losses.
But we're still in business.
- I wanna emphasize that.
- Mr.
Ewing That's really all I can talk about today.
Thank you for coming.
I really appreciate it.
Gentlemen, and ladies, I appreciate your time today.
Thank you very much.
That's all I can talk about.
- Thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
- Thank you so much.
- Ewing Oil.
Please hold.
- What's going on? - They were here when I got in.
- I heard it on the radio coming in.
- Excuse me.
Excuse me.
- Bobby, J.
R.
and your daddy are inside.
Mr.
Ewing, do you have anything to say? Nothing right now.
Thank you.
Ewing Oil.
Yeah, I thought it was good, Daddy.
Thought it went well.
You two seem to be taking all this pretty well.
Well, I'm happy to report that Ewing Oil Company is well and alive thanks to J.
R.
Tell him.
A couple days ago, I had a chance to sell for $ 10 million a point.
Somebody's looking after us, boy.
You trying to tell me Ewing Oil just got lucky? Well, I had a chance to get involved in a pretty big deal.
A chance to buy into some gas fields on the East Coast.
Dad and I have been talking about it for a year.
Those old boys wouldn't speak to me unless I had cash in my hand.
Who bought the leases? Well, Vaughn Leland was one of them.
About time that old barracuda got his comeuppance, huh? No.
Come on, J.
R.
Don't make fun of a man's misery.
Who else, J.
R.
? Same old boys been trying to get in on this deal from the beginning.
The boys in the cartel? Yeah.
Yeah, you know, Andy Bradley, Jordan Lee, Seth Stone.
Business is a gamble.
They know that, Bobby.
Did you know about this, Daddy? Why weren't we told? You're supposed to clear it before you do anything! You all were up in Colorado.
I didn't have time for that.
I had to move fast.
Good thing I did too, Bob.
- Can you believe what he's saying? - Bobby, are you calling me a liar? You must be mighty proud, J.
R.
You must be on top of the world.
- Jordan, I know how you feel.
- Is that right? You tell me how I feel, and I'll tell you a few things.
Now, just hold it, Jordan.
J.
R.
didn't know about the nationalization.
The hell he didn't.
Months ago, we begged him to get in on that deal.
He wouldn't even respond to our telephone calls.
Then, suddenly, he's ready to sell immediately.
Jordan, I told you, I needed that cash for other deals.
You knew those wells were gonna be worthless.
You suckered your friends into buying the leases.
Now, hold on a minute, Jordan.
We took quite a beating on that ourselves.
We still own 25 percent of those leases.
We lost $250 million, not to mention our royalties on your share.
- Why would I do that if I knew about it? - To make it look good, J.
R.
Come on, Jordan.
You know this business.
It's a crapshoot.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
Especially when you're playing with loaded dice.
You gambled and lost.
That's the business.
Now, you've made a lot of money with us before, and you'll make a lot again.
We always take care of our friends.
You know that.
Well, I'm happy to hear that, Jock, real happy.
I'll be sure to pass that information along to Seth Stone's widow.
She'll be real happy to hear that too.
What the hell are you talking about? Seth killed himself this morning.
And Washington does not believe that the nationalization poses any threat to the security of the United States.
On the local scene, we have an update on the Ewing Oil story.
Contrary to earlier reports, Ewing Oil will not suffer a major loss.
In a press conference this morning, J.
R.
Ewing told this reporter that the company sold most of its oil holdings a short time before the oil industry was nationalized.
A sad side to this story.
One of the leaseholders, popular Dallas oilman Seth Stone committed suicide this morning.
Apparently, Mr.
Stone had recently tied up most of his assets in the nationalized wells.
He leaves his widow, Marilee.
Oh, my God, J.
R.
Well, as press conferences go, I was pretty happy with that.
I thought we came off pretty well.
Yeah.
J.
R.
, Marilee Stone called again.
- I'll take care of it.
- Okay, thank you.
I'm sorry, you can't go in there! You better start talking.
Fast! Vaughn, all I can say is I am sorry.
Sorry will not do! I want an explanation, an apology and restitution.
I don't have anything to apologize for.
And the explanation's very simple.
You gambled, and you lost.
And as for restitution Not a nickel, not a penny.
That was a fair deal, Vaughn.
J.
R.
knew about that nationalization.
You cheated us.
You lied to us! - Have you got any proof? - Not yet, but I'll get it.
Well, until you do, you better be damned careful who you're calling a cheat and a liar.
How do you stand on this? You don't have to ask, Vaughn.
The Ewings are a family.
I want that money back.
I borrowed $20 million from a bank in Fort Worth.
I used my share of those leases as collateral.
And now I'm wiped out.
There is no way I can repay that loan.
Jock, you and I know each other a long time.
We go back a long ways.
Twenty million dollars.
You gotta help me.
Appears to me that I came to see you not too long ago.
I was about to lose Southfork.
All I wanted was an extension on the loan.
"Deal's a deal," you said.
I believed it then.
I believe it now.
It was crooked! And I believe you knew that.
You'll regret this.
- Is that a threat, Vaughn? - No threat.
A promise.
I'll get you for this if it's the last thing I do.
He's your boy, all right, Jock.
Chip off the old block.
And I know what I'm gonna do with him.
I think the best thing you can do is get the hell out of here.
Did you know he had to borrow that money? How would I know about that? Everything was happening so fast.
I only gave him 24 hours to raise the money.
- I didn't ask questions.
- I think Vaughn's right.
You knew about the nationalization and dumped the leases on our friends.
- You have a rich imagination.
- Do I? How long you been talking about investing in the East Coast fields? - About a year.
- And just before the Asian wells are nationalized, you decide to move? - That's right.
- What'd you do, J.
R.
, consult a psychic? - Hold it, Bobby.
J.
R.
, I'm gonna ask you a question.
Now, I'm gonna ask it just once, and you're gonna answer it.
And then we're never gonna mention it again.
Did you know that those wells were going to be nationalized? No, sir.
I swear it.
I'd never have done anything like that to my friends.
Cypripedium is the proper name of the temperate orchid commonly called lady's slippers.
It's beautiful.
Thank you.
Greg, a great new disco just opened up by Loop 12.
- Lucy, I'm not much of a dancer.
- Well, I could teach you.
I'm terrific.
I'm sure you are.
But I've tried.
I'd just embarrass the both of us.
- Greg, is there someone else? - Lucy, of course not.
- Well, then what's the problem? - I didn't know there was a problem.
Isn't there? All our dates consist of walking through the park and lunches.
Lucy, you're my student.
Is that all I am to you? No.
- You have a funny way of showing it.
- Lucy.
- Hi, Kristin.
- Come on in.
Interesting, isn't it? That's old news.
It's been on the TV, radio.
J.
R.
wasn't hurt.
He sold those leases.
- What are you talking about? When? - Couple of days ago.
- How do you know? - I've had guests.
Listen.
J.
R.
finally let us in on the Asian deal.
I'm gonna be a rich man.
- How come? - Says he needs the cash.
Some new deal in the works.
Who is that? One of the cartel members.
Andy Bradley.
J.
R.
must have had advance information those wells would be nationalized.
I've been trying to figure that out all morning.
Maybe Hank Johnson tipped him off.
Who's Hank Johnson? J.
R.
's man in the Far East.
He was in charge of the oil wells.
Who bought the leases? Who else? J.
R.
's closest friends and associates.
I bet those friends and associates would be interested to know if J.
R.
had been warned in advance.
They'd string him up.
And I bet J.
R.
would pay plenty to keep them from knowing.
We have no proof.
J.
R.
's too smart for that.
He covered his tracks.
Maybe not.
Maybe not.
See if you can get Hank Johnson on the phone.
Overseas operator, please.
Hello, Mama.
Hello, Bobby.
I'm glad you're here.
Pam tried to reach you at the office, but you'd already left.
- Is she all right? - She's fine.
She's decided to fly to Corpus Christi after all.
- I was afraid of that.
- She'll be all right.
Mama, I think she's rushing into this whole thing too fast.
Well, I can understand her need to know about her family.
None of us None of us knew Rebecca very well.
But she's compulsive, almost obsessed with it.
I don't think she realizes she's still in shock from Digger's death.
I know.
But I think it would do her more harm than good if you tried to stop her.
Well, I don't have to worry about that now, do I? How you feeling? Ridiculous, embarrassed and hung-over.
Why don't you get a cup of coffee and take it easy the rest of the day.
I barely remember what happened yesterday.
A bar, some cowboys.
It's really all kind of a blur to me.
Was I really in all that danger? All I know is that now J.
R.
has enough ammunition to put me away for good.
- No, he won't.
- Of course he will.
Bobby, look what he did to Seth Stone.
What chance do I have? I'll stop him.
But you have to help, Sue Ellen.
You have to stop drinking.
Bobby, when I told you before that I wasn't drinking I was telling you the truth.
But then something happened.
I can't talk about it.
But it was a shock.
And I started drinking again.
But I promise you that I won't take another drink again.
Ever.
I hope you mean it.
Why don't you go in the den and see Mama.
She'd like that.
Oh, no.
I can't face her.
Not after the way I disgraced myself.
You're gonna have to face her sometime.
Do it now.
Okay.
- Yeah? - Hank Johnson on two.
Put him on.
Hello, Hank.
I want you to know I'm sending the stuff.
But I'm as mad as hell! You want it destroyed, you gotta trust me to do it.
And another thing why in hell did you tell Kristin what's going on? - This is supposed to be between us.
- Hey, now, hold on.
Hold on.
I don't understand a word of what you're saying.
Kristin doesn't know anything.
And what stuff are you sending? - Just tell me what's going on.
- The records, the receipts.
You want them destroyed, I can do it.
But I wanna tell you, I don 't appreciate being treated like a clerk.
Are you talking about the records of your last trip to Dallas? Kristin called me.
She said you wanted to destroy all the records that I should send them to the condo by courier.
There's been a mistake, Hank.
I want you to destroy that stuff.
Burn it, shred it, get rid of it any way you can.
Get back to your hotel.
Wait for my call.
You did the right thing calling me, Hank.
Talk to you later.
Dr.
Elby I barely remember the bar or who I was with.
Sue Ellen, you're starting to black out when you drink.
It's gonna be all right.
I'm not gonna take another drink, ever.
And J.
R.
's not gonna put me back into Fletcher Sanitarium.
Bobby told me he'd stop J.
R.
Now you're relying on Bobby to help you.
- What's the matter with that? - It's the same old pattern.
You're giving control over your life to someone else.
You're putting your welfare into Bobby's hands.
- I trust him.
- More than you trust yourself.
Yes.
Could you wait for me, please? Please, ma'am, may I talk to you for a minute? Do you live around here? Most my life.
Well, my name's Pamela Ewing.
I'm trying to find someone who used to live around here.
Maybe you remember her.
Rebecca Barnes? Rebecca Barnes.
My memory ain't too good.
Was she your mama? Yes.
Wait a minute.
Why, I see the resemblance.
She had a little boy, maybe 5, maybe 6.
My brother, Cliff.
Don't remember no girl.
Yeah.
She was pregnant.
- Big with it, she was.
- She was carrying me.
Please, don't you remember anything more? Well, wait.
One Christmas I went to visit my brother in Galveston.
I stayed a few weeks, come back, and she was gone.
- Just my mama? - No, the whole family.
- Gone.
- Do you know where? Nobody knew.
I asked, but nobody knew.
I got to go now.
Thank you again.
She was a nice woman.
And beautiful, like you.
- Got something to tell me? - I'm in a hurry.
- Start talking.
- What is this? - I want some answers.
- I don't know what you're talking about.
All right, fine.
I'll give you a hint.
Hank Johnson just called me.
I didn't wanna do it, J.
R.
Alan made me.
He threatened to tell Jock about our love affair.
I was only protecting you.
You think you're gonna blackmail me? You and Alan Beam? You're out of your league, honey.
You're gonna be sorry you ever even thought of that.
You can't scare me.
It takes brains to know when to be scared, honey.
And since that's something in short supply around here, I'm gonna help you.
Now is the time to be scared.
I understand it's beautiful weather down in Rio this time of year.
You put on one of those pretty little string bikinis you ought to last at least a year with one of those rich Brazilian businessmen.
One day, somebody's gonna stop you, and I hope I'm there to watch it.
No way you can buy me off.
We'll see.
- Did you find what you were looking for? - No, I didn't.
Are you sure there are no more records of death certificates? You've seen them all.
If she died in Corpus Christi, you would've found it.
Thank you.
That's the best news I've had in a long time.
You gave me quite a surprise this evening.
You managed to maintain a certain decorum.
Sorry to disappoint you, darling.
What? You expected me to be embarrassed in front of your family tonight at dinner.
Well, I wasn't, was I? I was the perfect lady.
Charming, witty and sober.
I swear, you're heading at 90 miles an hour towards a nervous breakdown.
Gonna have to do something about those ravings.
No, J.
R.
I am not raving.
I am not drunk.
I am just fine.
And you're not gonna put me back into that sanitarium.
- Who's gonna stop me? - Bobby's gonna stop you.
He's not gonna let you put me away.
I wouldn't count on that.
You know I always get what I want.
Tell me, J.
R.
, which slut are you gonna stay with tonight? What difference does it make? Whoever it is has got to be more interesting than the slut I'm looking at right now.
J.
R.
, Cliff Barnes is here to see you.
Tell him I'm busy.
It's all right, Louella.
Mr.
Barnes, what brings you here? Open it.
I have the feeling this isn't a social call.
- Open it.
- Why don't you get out of here.
All right, we can do it now, or we can do it later in court.
Read it.
Out loud.
I want to hear you say it.
- It's a forgery.
- Really? Well, according to these experts no.
Read it so Bobby can hear it.
"It is hereby agreed that all revenues and profits in the oil field now known as Ewing 23 will be shared equally by John Ewing and Willard Barnes and their heirs in perpetuity.
" Don't bother tearing it up.
It's a photocopy.
I opened that field myself.
So you did.
- Well, if this is legal - lf it's legal? Bobby, I'm a lawyer.
It's legal.
Bobby, you just made your brother-in-law a very wealthy man.
- Well, it's not gonna break us, J.
R.
- No, no.
Of course not.
And that's a rather large field.
At current prices, you ought to do pretty well on that.
In view of these turn of events, I think we ought to have a little drink together.
I'm particular about who I drink with.
Congratulations, Cliff.
Finally got what you wanted.
Bobby, don't be a sore loser.
I can meet with your accountant sometime next week.
Cliff, don't rush off.
You did it.
I admire a man who gets what he wants.
Hello.
Harry Owens, please.
You're taking this quite well.
You're not even gonna fight me.
Oh, I've learned in this business you have to roll with the punches.
Harry? Hi, J.
R.
Ewing here.
Oh, fine, fine.
Can you give me a report on Ewing 23, please? Five thousand barrels a month? Well, I figure your share ought to be about a half-million dollars a year.
Harry, this is what I want you to do.
Close down that field.
That's right.
Shut down every single well.
I don't care about Ewing 23 or some old document Cliff found.
- It's gonna make him a lot of money.
- Well.
I went to the Corpus Christi Hall of Records and the hospital in my old neighborhood.
They don't have any information about my mother.
But I met the most wonderful old woman who knew her.
You see, on my first try, I found her.
Imagine what I'm gonna find when I get going.
I realize how important it is for you to find out about your mama but you've been through a shock.
Bobby, I have to do this.
I'm gonna quit my job at The Store.
Now, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
If you wanna quit to raise a family, that's one thing.
Dr.
Danvers said you needed a period of mourning and maybe counseling.
I want you to take it slow.
I have to do it, Bobby.
Please understand.
I do understand.
But I think what you're doing is not right for you now.
When it is right, I'll be there with you.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Did you forget we had a date tonight? - I'm sorry.
I have to break it.
Look at this desk.
I've got 50 papers to mark before tomorrow.
Why didn't you tell me about those 50 papers this morning? Lucy.
I'm sorry.
Maybe we've been seeing too much of each other.
- Maybe we need a break? - Lucy, no.
I don't want you to think that.
- Are you sure you have to work tonight? - Yes.
All right.
I'll talk to you later.
Hi, Beth, it's me.
How's Stevie? Well, what did the doctor say? Well, that's good.
Do you need anything? Okay, I'm on my way home right now.
Well.
Did he give you any trouble, Harry? At first.
Then I convinced him that he ought to cooperate.
Call your gorilla off, J.
R.
Now, don't insult the sergeant.
You might hurt his feelings.
- You ready to talk to me, boy? - Sure, J.
R.
What would you like to know? What are you and Kristin trying to do? - I don't know what you're talking about.
- She told me everything.
You trying to blackmail old J.
R.
? I don't know what she told you, but I don't know anything, J.
R.
Alan, I didn't bring you here to listen to you try to weasel out of this.
Now, I told you once before, you're finished in this town.
Get out of Dallas, right now.
Who do you think you're talking to? You can't do a thing to me, and you know it.
How do you think you're gonna make a living? I'm an attorney, J.
R.
I'll get a job.
There must be someone in this town you don't own.
Well, you're not gonna work in this town.
Or any other town.
Harry, what is the penalty for rape? What are you talking about? That woman you raped.
A couple of months ago, wasn't it? That's right, Mr.
Ewing.
You can't get away with this.
There is no woman.
Harry, we got a woman yet? Blond, brunette or redhead? See, Alan? It's just a matter of time.
All right, Harry.
You just leaned too hard on the wrong man, J.
R.
Get him out of here.
Once they've dissolved that corporation, we can pierce the pension fund put it right in our pocket.
- Yep.
Daddy, did you see this? What you got there? If you can't afford to lose, you shouldn't play the game.
You're all heart, J.
R.
Are you defending Vaughn Leland? He would have happily turned us out of our own home.
Didn't have any second thoughts about foreclosing on Southfork.
And now the tables are turned.
Frankly, it couldn't have happened to a nicer vulture.
J.
R.
, did you tell Daddy about our new business partner? - What's that? - The document, J.
R.
The paper that Daddy and Digger signed.
Papers? What the hell are you talking about? It's nothing to get excited about, Dad.
Cliff Barnes brought in an old document, doesn't mean a thing.
Do you remember signing a paper sharing the wells on Ewing 23 with Digger? Well, Digger and I signed a lot of papers.
Why? Well, this paper makes Cliff Barnes a partner in those wells.
- Barnes, a partner of mine? - Dad, I took care of it.
No problem.
What do you mean took care of it? That document is legal.
Barnes is a partner.
Oh, yeah, he's a partner.
In some nonproducing fields.
Nonproducing field? J.
R.
, I opened those wells myself.
Yeah.
And I shut them.
You shut them? Who gave you permission to do that? Nobody.
I did it all by myself.
Daddy gave me the authority to open those wells.
Nobody closes them but me.
Would you have closed them? You know damn well I wouldn't.
If Barnes has a right to half the profits of those wells that's something we live with.
- J.
R.
did the right thing.
There ain't no way that Cliff Barnes could ever be a partner of mine.
- Then you approve of what he did? - I'd have done the same thing, Bobby.
The same thing.
That's just what I was afraid you'd say, Daddy.
Bobby's getting weak, Daddy.
Just plain weak.
Doesn't hardly sound like a Ewing anymore.
Five minutes in the same room with J.
R.
, I feel like I've been in a pigsty.
- What happened? - I'll tell you what happened.
I found exactly where my daddy stands.
- Bobby, I don't understand.
- Those wells I opened up.
Cliff has a right to share in the profits from those wells so J.
R.
closed them down.
And the worst thing is, Daddy approves.
Makes him no better than J.
R.
I gotta get out of here.
We're leaving Southfork first thing in the morning.
Bobby.
You can't just run away like this.
I thought you'd be happy about it.
It doesn't matter how I feel.
This is your family.
Not anymore, they're not.
I've gotta get out while I still know the difference between right and wrong.
Take the advice you've been giving me.
Wait until you've cooled off.
I've put up with all the wheeling and dealing and backstabbing that I'm going to.
We leave in the morning.
Raoul I want you to take these to the car for me, please.
Honey.
- I wanna say goodbye to Miss Ellie.
- I'd like you to wait in the car.
I have to do this alone.
Okay.
- See you later, Bobby.
- Bye, honey.
- Bobby.
- Well, what is it, Bobby? Are you all right? No, Mama.
I'm not all right.
Mama, Pam and I are leaving Southfork.
What? - Why? - I'm sorry.
I can't stay here any longer.
I can't live in the same house with J.
R.
Now, look, Bobby, that's a hell of a decision for you to make without talking to your mom and me first about it.
There's nothing to talk about.
Unless you wanna talk about decency or morality and they don't seem to be words we use around here.
Bobby please don't go.
Whatever's wrong between you and J.
R.
can be worked out.
No, Mama, it can't.
And I've stopped kidding myself.
It can't be worked out now, not ever.
Oh, Jock.
Jock, please don't let him go.
- Please.
- Bob Daddy, I can't fight the both of you.
Now, you put me back in Ewing Oil to keep an eye on J.
R.
And when I needed you most, you backed him.
But I did it because I thought it was right, Bobby.
And that's why I can't stay.
I'm sorry, Mama.
I tried, and I tried hard.
But no more.
Despite our differences, Bobby, you're still a Ewing.
We've only got each other.
We've got to stick together.
At the expense of everybody else? Not me, Daddy.
I can't live that way.
Where are you? Where are you going? I'm not sure.
As far away from here as possible.
Goodbye, Mama.
I'm sorry, Mama.
Little breakfast, honey? Morning.
You all right? Mama? What's wrong? You drove Gary away.
And now Bobby.
You tried to bribe Valene.
You cheated your friends.
You've done everything in your power to get what you wanted.
Well, you did it.
Congratulations, J.
R.
You are now the Ewings' only son.
Mama, I don't want Bobby to leave.
You know that.
All I know is, J.
R he's gone.
You've had your last say in this house, Sue Ellen.
You think you can talk about me in front of my mama and daddy like that? You've caused me enough humiliation.
You're a drunk and an unfit mother.
And I honestly think you've lost your reason.
I'm gonna call Dr.
Rogers.
Sooner we have you put away, the better off you're gonna be.
Police.
Open up.
What is it? What do you want? It's called harassment.
J.
R.
Ewing variety.
- I have a warrant for your arrest.
- For what? Prostitution.
Is she any good? You know, you're real lucky to have friends in high places.
I'm gonna hold this warrant for 24 hours give you a little time to get out of town.
And you too.
Time's running short.
Remember, 24 hours.
I'll kill him.
I swear, I'll kill him.
Take a number.
There are a few of us ahead of you.
No.
No, it cannot wait.
I want her committed tonight.
Well, she's a danger to herself and to the boy.
I'll do what I can, but you're not giving me much time to make preparations.
Just get your men out to the ranch this evening.
I'm gonna be working late.
I don't wanna be there when they take her away.
Well, who's gonna sign the commitment papers? I will.
I'll come out to the sanitarium later on tonight.
All right, we'll take care of everything.
David, I appreciate this.
- She really needs help.
- All right, J.
R.
- Yeah? - Vaughn Leland on one.
- Vaughn? - I'm gonna ask you for the last time.
Return that money to me.
You know I can't do that.
J.
R.
, I'm warning you.
I'm gonna see to it that this is the last crooked deal you ever pull.
I'm sorry, Daddy.
They beat me.
J.
R.
whipped me just like Jock did you.
There's not a whole lot left I can do.
Except stop J.
R.
for good.
I don't know if that'd make you rest any better or not but that's something that I have to do.
Goodbye, Daddy.
Don't you see? He's gotta be stopped.
He's gonna teach my son to be like he is, and it's gonna go on and on and on.
I've told you, it doesn't have to be that way.
You don't seem to understand.
He is dangerous, and he's got to be controlled.
He wants to put me back in that sanitarium, but I won't let him.
He's not gonna do that to me again.
He must know that little John needs you.
He doesn't care.
He wants me out of the way.
But this time, he's not gonna get what he wants.
What time do you have, Dr.
Elby? We still have a few more minutes, Sue Ellen.
I wanna tell you something, Dr.
Elby.
You've been right all along.
I can't rely on anyone else to do what I have to do.
J.
R.
Ewing here.
Hello? Who's there?
You'll regret this.
- Is that a threat, Vaughn? - A promise.
I've put up with all the wheeling and dealing and backstabbing I'm going to.
We leave in the morning.
You're a drunk and an unfit mother.
The sooner we have you put away, the better off you're gonna be.
He's gotta be stopped.
I can't rely on anyone else to do what I have to do.
Now, you people got your story.
I've got work to do.
One more question, sir.
Did Ewing Oil invest all of its capital in those leases and does nationalization mean the end of the Ewing empire? I think my son better answer that.
Well, thank you, Dad.
That's really two questions, but Yes, we diversified, if that's what you wanna know.
What are your other investments, Mr.
Ewing? I can't reveal that at this time but we were able to get into another deal before they nationalized the wells.
Did you suffer any losses? Well, yes.
Ewing Oil suffered quite a few losses.
But we're still in business.
- I wanna emphasize that.
- Mr.
Ewing That's really all I can talk about today.
Thank you for coming.
I really appreciate it.
Gentlemen, and ladies, I appreciate your time today.
Thank you very much.
That's all I can talk about.
- Thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
- Thank you so much.
- Ewing Oil.
Please hold.
- What's going on? - They were here when I got in.
- I heard it on the radio coming in.
- Excuse me.
Excuse me.
- Bobby, J.
R.
and your daddy are inside.
Mr.
Ewing, do you have anything to say? Nothing right now.
Thank you.
Ewing Oil.
Yeah, I thought it was good, Daddy.
Thought it went well.
You two seem to be taking all this pretty well.
Well, I'm happy to report that Ewing Oil Company is well and alive thanks to J.
R.
Tell him.
A couple days ago, I had a chance to sell for $ 10 million a point.
Somebody's looking after us, boy.
You trying to tell me Ewing Oil just got lucky? Well, I had a chance to get involved in a pretty big deal.
A chance to buy into some gas fields on the East Coast.
Dad and I have been talking about it for a year.
Those old boys wouldn't speak to me unless I had cash in my hand.
Who bought the leases? Well, Vaughn Leland was one of them.
About time that old barracuda got his comeuppance, huh? No.
Come on, J.
R.
Don't make fun of a man's misery.
Who else, J.
R.
? Same old boys been trying to get in on this deal from the beginning.
The boys in the cartel? Yeah.
Yeah, you know, Andy Bradley, Jordan Lee, Seth Stone.
Business is a gamble.
They know that, Bobby.
Did you know about this, Daddy? Why weren't we told? You're supposed to clear it before you do anything! You all were up in Colorado.
I didn't have time for that.
I had to move fast.
Good thing I did too, Bob.
- Can you believe what he's saying? - Bobby, are you calling me a liar? You must be mighty proud, J.
R.
You must be on top of the world.
- Jordan, I know how you feel.
- Is that right? You tell me how I feel, and I'll tell you a few things.
Now, just hold it, Jordan.
J.
R.
didn't know about the nationalization.
The hell he didn't.
Months ago, we begged him to get in on that deal.
He wouldn't even respond to our telephone calls.
Then, suddenly, he's ready to sell immediately.
Jordan, I told you, I needed that cash for other deals.
You knew those wells were gonna be worthless.
You suckered your friends into buying the leases.
Now, hold on a minute, Jordan.
We took quite a beating on that ourselves.
We still own 25 percent of those leases.
We lost $250 million, not to mention our royalties on your share.
- Why would I do that if I knew about it? - To make it look good, J.
R.
Come on, Jordan.
You know this business.
It's a crapshoot.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.
Especially when you're playing with loaded dice.
You gambled and lost.
That's the business.
Now, you've made a lot of money with us before, and you'll make a lot again.
We always take care of our friends.
You know that.
Well, I'm happy to hear that, Jock, real happy.
I'll be sure to pass that information along to Seth Stone's widow.
She'll be real happy to hear that too.
What the hell are you talking about? Seth killed himself this morning.
And Washington does not believe that the nationalization poses any threat to the security of the United States.
On the local scene, we have an update on the Ewing Oil story.
Contrary to earlier reports, Ewing Oil will not suffer a major loss.
In a press conference this morning, J.
R.
Ewing told this reporter that the company sold most of its oil holdings a short time before the oil industry was nationalized.
A sad side to this story.
One of the leaseholders, popular Dallas oilman Seth Stone committed suicide this morning.
Apparently, Mr.
Stone had recently tied up most of his assets in the nationalized wells.
He leaves his widow, Marilee.
Oh, my God, J.
R.
Well, as press conferences go, I was pretty happy with that.
I thought we came off pretty well.
Yeah.
J.
R.
, Marilee Stone called again.
- I'll take care of it.
- Okay, thank you.
I'm sorry, you can't go in there! You better start talking.
Fast! Vaughn, all I can say is I am sorry.
Sorry will not do! I want an explanation, an apology and restitution.
I don't have anything to apologize for.
And the explanation's very simple.
You gambled, and you lost.
And as for restitution Not a nickel, not a penny.
That was a fair deal, Vaughn.
J.
R.
knew about that nationalization.
You cheated us.
You lied to us! - Have you got any proof? - Not yet, but I'll get it.
Well, until you do, you better be damned careful who you're calling a cheat and a liar.
How do you stand on this? You don't have to ask, Vaughn.
The Ewings are a family.
I want that money back.
I borrowed $20 million from a bank in Fort Worth.
I used my share of those leases as collateral.
And now I'm wiped out.
There is no way I can repay that loan.
Jock, you and I know each other a long time.
We go back a long ways.
Twenty million dollars.
You gotta help me.
Appears to me that I came to see you not too long ago.
I was about to lose Southfork.
All I wanted was an extension on the loan.
"Deal's a deal," you said.
I believed it then.
I believe it now.
It was crooked! And I believe you knew that.
You'll regret this.
- Is that a threat, Vaughn? - No threat.
A promise.
I'll get you for this if it's the last thing I do.
He's your boy, all right, Jock.
Chip off the old block.
And I know what I'm gonna do with him.
I think the best thing you can do is get the hell out of here.
Did you know he had to borrow that money? How would I know about that? Everything was happening so fast.
I only gave him 24 hours to raise the money.
- I didn't ask questions.
- I think Vaughn's right.
You knew about the nationalization and dumped the leases on our friends.
- You have a rich imagination.
- Do I? How long you been talking about investing in the East Coast fields? - About a year.
- And just before the Asian wells are nationalized, you decide to move? - That's right.
- What'd you do, J.
R.
, consult a psychic? - Hold it, Bobby.
J.
R.
, I'm gonna ask you a question.
Now, I'm gonna ask it just once, and you're gonna answer it.
And then we're never gonna mention it again.
Did you know that those wells were going to be nationalized? No, sir.
I swear it.
I'd never have done anything like that to my friends.
Cypripedium is the proper name of the temperate orchid commonly called lady's slippers.
It's beautiful.
Thank you.
Greg, a great new disco just opened up by Loop 12.
- Lucy, I'm not much of a dancer.
- Well, I could teach you.
I'm terrific.
I'm sure you are.
But I've tried.
I'd just embarrass the both of us.
- Greg, is there someone else? - Lucy, of course not.
- Well, then what's the problem? - I didn't know there was a problem.
Isn't there? All our dates consist of walking through the park and lunches.
Lucy, you're my student.
Is that all I am to you? No.
- You have a funny way of showing it.
- Lucy.
- Hi, Kristin.
- Come on in.
Interesting, isn't it? That's old news.
It's been on the TV, radio.
J.
R.
wasn't hurt.
He sold those leases.
- What are you talking about? When? - Couple of days ago.
- How do you know? - I've had guests.
Listen.
J.
R.
finally let us in on the Asian deal.
I'm gonna be a rich man.
- How come? - Says he needs the cash.
Some new deal in the works.
Who is that? One of the cartel members.
Andy Bradley.
J.
R.
must have had advance information those wells would be nationalized.
I've been trying to figure that out all morning.
Maybe Hank Johnson tipped him off.
Who's Hank Johnson? J.
R.
's man in the Far East.
He was in charge of the oil wells.
Who bought the leases? Who else? J.
R.
's closest friends and associates.
I bet those friends and associates would be interested to know if J.
R.
had been warned in advance.
They'd string him up.
And I bet J.
R.
would pay plenty to keep them from knowing.
We have no proof.
J.
R.
's too smart for that.
He covered his tracks.
Maybe not.
Maybe not.
See if you can get Hank Johnson on the phone.
Overseas operator, please.
Hello, Mama.
Hello, Bobby.
I'm glad you're here.
Pam tried to reach you at the office, but you'd already left.
- Is she all right? - She's fine.
She's decided to fly to Corpus Christi after all.
- I was afraid of that.
- She'll be all right.
Mama, I think she's rushing into this whole thing too fast.
Well, I can understand her need to know about her family.
None of us None of us knew Rebecca very well.
But she's compulsive, almost obsessed with it.
I don't think she realizes she's still in shock from Digger's death.
I know.
But I think it would do her more harm than good if you tried to stop her.
Well, I don't have to worry about that now, do I? How you feeling? Ridiculous, embarrassed and hung-over.
Why don't you get a cup of coffee and take it easy the rest of the day.
I barely remember what happened yesterday.
A bar, some cowboys.
It's really all kind of a blur to me.
Was I really in all that danger? All I know is that now J.
R.
has enough ammunition to put me away for good.
- No, he won't.
- Of course he will.
Bobby, look what he did to Seth Stone.
What chance do I have? I'll stop him.
But you have to help, Sue Ellen.
You have to stop drinking.
Bobby, when I told you before that I wasn't drinking I was telling you the truth.
But then something happened.
I can't talk about it.
But it was a shock.
And I started drinking again.
But I promise you that I won't take another drink again.
Ever.
I hope you mean it.
Why don't you go in the den and see Mama.
She'd like that.
Oh, no.
I can't face her.
Not after the way I disgraced myself.
You're gonna have to face her sometime.
Do it now.
Okay.
- Yeah? - Hank Johnson on two.
Put him on.
Hello, Hank.
I want you to know I'm sending the stuff.
But I'm as mad as hell! You want it destroyed, you gotta trust me to do it.
And another thing why in hell did you tell Kristin what's going on? - This is supposed to be between us.
- Hey, now, hold on.
Hold on.
I don't understand a word of what you're saying.
Kristin doesn't know anything.
And what stuff are you sending? - Just tell me what's going on.
- The records, the receipts.
You want them destroyed, I can do it.
But I wanna tell you, I don 't appreciate being treated like a clerk.
Are you talking about the records of your last trip to Dallas? Kristin called me.
She said you wanted to destroy all the records that I should send them to the condo by courier.
There's been a mistake, Hank.
I want you to destroy that stuff.
Burn it, shred it, get rid of it any way you can.
Get back to your hotel.
Wait for my call.
You did the right thing calling me, Hank.
Talk to you later.
Dr.
Elby I barely remember the bar or who I was with.
Sue Ellen, you're starting to black out when you drink.
It's gonna be all right.
I'm not gonna take another drink, ever.
And J.
R.
's not gonna put me back into Fletcher Sanitarium.
Bobby told me he'd stop J.
R.
Now you're relying on Bobby to help you.
- What's the matter with that? - It's the same old pattern.
You're giving control over your life to someone else.
You're putting your welfare into Bobby's hands.
- I trust him.
- More than you trust yourself.
Yes.
Could you wait for me, please? Please, ma'am, may I talk to you for a minute? Do you live around here? Most my life.
Well, my name's Pamela Ewing.
I'm trying to find someone who used to live around here.
Maybe you remember her.
Rebecca Barnes? Rebecca Barnes.
My memory ain't too good.
Was she your mama? Yes.
Wait a minute.
Why, I see the resemblance.
She had a little boy, maybe 5, maybe 6.
My brother, Cliff.
Don't remember no girl.
Yeah.
She was pregnant.
- Big with it, she was.
- She was carrying me.
Please, don't you remember anything more? Well, wait.
One Christmas I went to visit my brother in Galveston.
I stayed a few weeks, come back, and she was gone.
- Just my mama? - No, the whole family.
- Gone.
- Do you know where? Nobody knew.
I asked, but nobody knew.
I got to go now.
Thank you again.
She was a nice woman.
And beautiful, like you.
- Got something to tell me? - I'm in a hurry.
- Start talking.
- What is this? - I want some answers.
- I don't know what you're talking about.
All right, fine.
I'll give you a hint.
Hank Johnson just called me.
I didn't wanna do it, J.
R.
Alan made me.
He threatened to tell Jock about our love affair.
I was only protecting you.
You think you're gonna blackmail me? You and Alan Beam? You're out of your league, honey.
You're gonna be sorry you ever even thought of that.
You can't scare me.
It takes brains to know when to be scared, honey.
And since that's something in short supply around here, I'm gonna help you.
Now is the time to be scared.
I understand it's beautiful weather down in Rio this time of year.
You put on one of those pretty little string bikinis you ought to last at least a year with one of those rich Brazilian businessmen.
One day, somebody's gonna stop you, and I hope I'm there to watch it.
No way you can buy me off.
We'll see.
- Did you find what you were looking for? - No, I didn't.
Are you sure there are no more records of death certificates? You've seen them all.
If she died in Corpus Christi, you would've found it.
Thank you.
That's the best news I've had in a long time.
You gave me quite a surprise this evening.
You managed to maintain a certain decorum.
Sorry to disappoint you, darling.
What? You expected me to be embarrassed in front of your family tonight at dinner.
Well, I wasn't, was I? I was the perfect lady.
Charming, witty and sober.
I swear, you're heading at 90 miles an hour towards a nervous breakdown.
Gonna have to do something about those ravings.
No, J.
R.
I am not raving.
I am not drunk.
I am just fine.
And you're not gonna put me back into that sanitarium.
- Who's gonna stop me? - Bobby's gonna stop you.
He's not gonna let you put me away.
I wouldn't count on that.
You know I always get what I want.
Tell me, J.
R.
, which slut are you gonna stay with tonight? What difference does it make? Whoever it is has got to be more interesting than the slut I'm looking at right now.
J.
R.
, Cliff Barnes is here to see you.
Tell him I'm busy.
It's all right, Louella.
Mr.
Barnes, what brings you here? Open it.
I have the feeling this isn't a social call.
- Open it.
- Why don't you get out of here.
All right, we can do it now, or we can do it later in court.
Read it.
Out loud.
I want to hear you say it.
- It's a forgery.
- Really? Well, according to these experts no.
Read it so Bobby can hear it.
"It is hereby agreed that all revenues and profits in the oil field now known as Ewing 23 will be shared equally by John Ewing and Willard Barnes and their heirs in perpetuity.
" Don't bother tearing it up.
It's a photocopy.
I opened that field myself.
So you did.
- Well, if this is legal - lf it's legal? Bobby, I'm a lawyer.
It's legal.
Bobby, you just made your brother-in-law a very wealthy man.
- Well, it's not gonna break us, J.
R.
- No, no.
Of course not.
And that's a rather large field.
At current prices, you ought to do pretty well on that.
In view of these turn of events, I think we ought to have a little drink together.
I'm particular about who I drink with.
Congratulations, Cliff.
Finally got what you wanted.
Bobby, don't be a sore loser.
I can meet with your accountant sometime next week.
Cliff, don't rush off.
You did it.
I admire a man who gets what he wants.
Hello.
Harry Owens, please.
You're taking this quite well.
You're not even gonna fight me.
Oh, I've learned in this business you have to roll with the punches.
Harry? Hi, J.
R.
Ewing here.
Oh, fine, fine.
Can you give me a report on Ewing 23, please? Five thousand barrels a month? Well, I figure your share ought to be about a half-million dollars a year.
Harry, this is what I want you to do.
Close down that field.
That's right.
Shut down every single well.
I don't care about Ewing 23 or some old document Cliff found.
- It's gonna make him a lot of money.
- Well.
I went to the Corpus Christi Hall of Records and the hospital in my old neighborhood.
They don't have any information about my mother.
But I met the most wonderful old woman who knew her.
You see, on my first try, I found her.
Imagine what I'm gonna find when I get going.
I realize how important it is for you to find out about your mama but you've been through a shock.
Bobby, I have to do this.
I'm gonna quit my job at The Store.
Now, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
If you wanna quit to raise a family, that's one thing.
Dr.
Danvers said you needed a period of mourning and maybe counseling.
I want you to take it slow.
I have to do it, Bobby.
Please understand.
I do understand.
But I think what you're doing is not right for you now.
When it is right, I'll be there with you.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Did you forget we had a date tonight? - I'm sorry.
I have to break it.
Look at this desk.
I've got 50 papers to mark before tomorrow.
Why didn't you tell me about those 50 papers this morning? Lucy.
I'm sorry.
Maybe we've been seeing too much of each other.
- Maybe we need a break? - Lucy, no.
I don't want you to think that.
- Are you sure you have to work tonight? - Yes.
All right.
I'll talk to you later.
Hi, Beth, it's me.
How's Stevie? Well, what did the doctor say? Well, that's good.
Do you need anything? Okay, I'm on my way home right now.
Well.
Did he give you any trouble, Harry? At first.
Then I convinced him that he ought to cooperate.
Call your gorilla off, J.
R.
Now, don't insult the sergeant.
You might hurt his feelings.
- You ready to talk to me, boy? - Sure, J.
R.
What would you like to know? What are you and Kristin trying to do? - I don't know what you're talking about.
- She told me everything.
You trying to blackmail old J.
R.
? I don't know what she told you, but I don't know anything, J.
R.
Alan, I didn't bring you here to listen to you try to weasel out of this.
Now, I told you once before, you're finished in this town.
Get out of Dallas, right now.
Who do you think you're talking to? You can't do a thing to me, and you know it.
How do you think you're gonna make a living? I'm an attorney, J.
R.
I'll get a job.
There must be someone in this town you don't own.
Well, you're not gonna work in this town.
Or any other town.
Harry, what is the penalty for rape? What are you talking about? That woman you raped.
A couple of months ago, wasn't it? That's right, Mr.
Ewing.
You can't get away with this.
There is no woman.
Harry, we got a woman yet? Blond, brunette or redhead? See, Alan? It's just a matter of time.
All right, Harry.
You just leaned too hard on the wrong man, J.
R.
Get him out of here.
Once they've dissolved that corporation, we can pierce the pension fund put it right in our pocket.
- Yep.
Daddy, did you see this? What you got there? If you can't afford to lose, you shouldn't play the game.
You're all heart, J.
R.
Are you defending Vaughn Leland? He would have happily turned us out of our own home.
Didn't have any second thoughts about foreclosing on Southfork.
And now the tables are turned.
Frankly, it couldn't have happened to a nicer vulture.
J.
R.
, did you tell Daddy about our new business partner? - What's that? - The document, J.
R.
The paper that Daddy and Digger signed.
Papers? What the hell are you talking about? It's nothing to get excited about, Dad.
Cliff Barnes brought in an old document, doesn't mean a thing.
Do you remember signing a paper sharing the wells on Ewing 23 with Digger? Well, Digger and I signed a lot of papers.
Why? Well, this paper makes Cliff Barnes a partner in those wells.
- Barnes, a partner of mine? - Dad, I took care of it.
No problem.
What do you mean took care of it? That document is legal.
Barnes is a partner.
Oh, yeah, he's a partner.
In some nonproducing fields.
Nonproducing field? J.
R.
, I opened those wells myself.
Yeah.
And I shut them.
You shut them? Who gave you permission to do that? Nobody.
I did it all by myself.
Daddy gave me the authority to open those wells.
Nobody closes them but me.
Would you have closed them? You know damn well I wouldn't.
If Barnes has a right to half the profits of those wells that's something we live with.
- J.
R.
did the right thing.
There ain't no way that Cliff Barnes could ever be a partner of mine.
- Then you approve of what he did? - I'd have done the same thing, Bobby.
The same thing.
That's just what I was afraid you'd say, Daddy.
Bobby's getting weak, Daddy.
Just plain weak.
Doesn't hardly sound like a Ewing anymore.
Five minutes in the same room with J.
R.
, I feel like I've been in a pigsty.
- What happened? - I'll tell you what happened.
I found exactly where my daddy stands.
- Bobby, I don't understand.
- Those wells I opened up.
Cliff has a right to share in the profits from those wells so J.
R.
closed them down.
And the worst thing is, Daddy approves.
Makes him no better than J.
R.
I gotta get out of here.
We're leaving Southfork first thing in the morning.
Bobby.
You can't just run away like this.
I thought you'd be happy about it.
It doesn't matter how I feel.
This is your family.
Not anymore, they're not.
I've gotta get out while I still know the difference between right and wrong.
Take the advice you've been giving me.
Wait until you've cooled off.
I've put up with all the wheeling and dealing and backstabbing that I'm going to.
We leave in the morning.
Raoul I want you to take these to the car for me, please.
Honey.
- I wanna say goodbye to Miss Ellie.
- I'd like you to wait in the car.
I have to do this alone.
Okay.
- See you later, Bobby.
- Bye, honey.
- Bobby.
- Well, what is it, Bobby? Are you all right? No, Mama.
I'm not all right.
Mama, Pam and I are leaving Southfork.
What? - Why? - I'm sorry.
I can't stay here any longer.
I can't live in the same house with J.
R.
Now, look, Bobby, that's a hell of a decision for you to make without talking to your mom and me first about it.
There's nothing to talk about.
Unless you wanna talk about decency or morality and they don't seem to be words we use around here.
Bobby please don't go.
Whatever's wrong between you and J.
R.
can be worked out.
No, Mama, it can't.
And I've stopped kidding myself.
It can't be worked out now, not ever.
Oh, Jock.
Jock, please don't let him go.
- Please.
- Bob Daddy, I can't fight the both of you.
Now, you put me back in Ewing Oil to keep an eye on J.
R.
And when I needed you most, you backed him.
But I did it because I thought it was right, Bobby.
And that's why I can't stay.
I'm sorry, Mama.
I tried, and I tried hard.
But no more.
Despite our differences, Bobby, you're still a Ewing.
We've only got each other.
We've got to stick together.
At the expense of everybody else? Not me, Daddy.
I can't live that way.
Where are you? Where are you going? I'm not sure.
As far away from here as possible.
Goodbye, Mama.
I'm sorry, Mama.
Little breakfast, honey? Morning.
You all right? Mama? What's wrong? You drove Gary away.
And now Bobby.
You tried to bribe Valene.
You cheated your friends.
You've done everything in your power to get what you wanted.
Well, you did it.
Congratulations, J.
R.
You are now the Ewings' only son.
Mama, I don't want Bobby to leave.
You know that.
All I know is, J.
R he's gone.
You've had your last say in this house, Sue Ellen.
You think you can talk about me in front of my mama and daddy like that? You've caused me enough humiliation.
You're a drunk and an unfit mother.
And I honestly think you've lost your reason.
I'm gonna call Dr.
Rogers.
Sooner we have you put away, the better off you're gonna be.
Police.
Open up.
What is it? What do you want? It's called harassment.
J.
R.
Ewing variety.
- I have a warrant for your arrest.
- For what? Prostitution.
Is she any good? You know, you're real lucky to have friends in high places.
I'm gonna hold this warrant for 24 hours give you a little time to get out of town.
And you too.
Time's running short.
Remember, 24 hours.
I'll kill him.
I swear, I'll kill him.
Take a number.
There are a few of us ahead of you.
No.
No, it cannot wait.
I want her committed tonight.
Well, she's a danger to herself and to the boy.
I'll do what I can, but you're not giving me much time to make preparations.
Just get your men out to the ranch this evening.
I'm gonna be working late.
I don't wanna be there when they take her away.
Well, who's gonna sign the commitment papers? I will.
I'll come out to the sanitarium later on tonight.
All right, we'll take care of everything.
David, I appreciate this.
- She really needs help.
- All right, J.
R.
- Yeah? - Vaughn Leland on one.
- Vaughn? - I'm gonna ask you for the last time.
Return that money to me.
You know I can't do that.
J.
R.
, I'm warning you.
I'm gonna see to it that this is the last crooked deal you ever pull.
I'm sorry, Daddy.
They beat me.
J.
R.
whipped me just like Jock did you.
There's not a whole lot left I can do.
Except stop J.
R.
for good.
I don't know if that'd make you rest any better or not but that's something that I have to do.
Goodbye, Daddy.
Don't you see? He's gotta be stopped.
He's gonna teach my son to be like he is, and it's gonna go on and on and on.
I've told you, it doesn't have to be that way.
You don't seem to understand.
He is dangerous, and he's got to be controlled.
He wants to put me back in that sanitarium, but I won't let him.
He's not gonna do that to me again.
He must know that little John needs you.
He doesn't care.
He wants me out of the way.
But this time, he's not gonna get what he wants.
What time do you have, Dr.
Elby? We still have a few more minutes, Sue Ellen.
I wanna tell you something, Dr.
Elby.
You've been right all along.
I can't rely on anyone else to do what I have to do.
J.
R.
Ewing here.
Hello? Who's there?
