Dallas s05e17 Episode Script

Mr.
Barnes brought Mrs.
Ewing home about midnight.
- What time did he leave? - Well.
He didn't.
He's still there.
Cliff Barnes and my wife spent the night together.
There's not a lot I can do about it, is there? You gonna let Sue Ellen take Cliff from you? J.
R.
will never.
Never let you have Sue Ellen.
He'll break you.
Only this time.
You just may not be able to pick up all the pieces.
When we finish with this Mr.
Barnes.
He may never work again.
Yeah.
I'm counting on that.
Hello.
Ray? No.
It's me.
What are you doing here? Well.
I knocked on the door.
There was no answer.
So I - What do you want? - I wanna see Ray.
- He's not here.
- Yeah.
I know that.
He's not on the ranch.
I asked around, the hands don't know where he is.
You know where he is? I don't really think that that's any of your business.
Yeah.
Maybe it's just as well he's not here.
I think you'll understand what I have to say better than he could.
J.
R.
.
I am very busy.
I'm gonna do you and Ray a favor.
You know.
Your favors always come with a price tag.
Your marriage is in real trouble.
Donna.
And I think I know how to save it.
That is also none of your damn business.
Well.
Flay is a Ewing.
Well.
Half of one, anyhow.
So that does make it my business, honey.
Say.
Donna.
Let's face it.
Ray doesn't handle pressure very well and responsibility not at all.
He's doing a lousy job running this ranch.
Of course.
There's the added burden of those 10 voting shares of Ewing Oil to worry about.
You know.
I was wondering when you were gonna get to your angle in all of this.
Well.
I'm not denying I'd like those shares.
Of course.
I'd know what to do with them.
But for Ray.
It's just Well.
That added responsibility is a millstone around his neck.
You know.
Why is it, J.
R whenever you wanna give somebody an apple it's always got a worm in it? You're a smart lady.
I think you know why Ray is going downhill.
It's because he couldn't cope with being a Ewing.
He couldn't compete with us.
Hell.
Honey.
He can't even compete with you.
And you're never gonna have a happy marriage until Ray realizes that being the foreman on Southfork is what he's cut out to be.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
But it'll never happen as long as he hangs on to those voting shares.
They're his last tie with the Ewings.
Until he gives them up well.
Your marriage is gonna get a lot worse before it gets any better.
Please forgive me for making our first meeting a short one, but I know.
Your secretary told me you're due in court.
At least I can get a sense of what's happening.
Just what is the situation.
Mr.
Ewing? My wife and I have a six-month-old baby boy living with us that we'd like to adopt.
And where did this child come from? This boy's natural mother was a distant relative.
And did she want to give the child out for adoption? No.
She died suddenly.
Pity.
Young woman.
I take it.
- Yes.
- And the father? Unknown.
That's not unusual.
Mes? Mr.
Eccles, you're due in court.
- Oh.
Is it time already? - Yes, sir.
Mr.
Ewing.
Could you come back tomorrow? - How's 9? - Fine.
Fine.
Meanwhile, I'll be thinking about how to handle this.
All right.
Thank you very much.
Pam.
He really is the most adorable baby.
Is he always this good? Yeah.
He's really sweet.
- Liz.
Isn't he an angel? - Yes.
He's beautiful.
At this age.
Don't they mostly just sleep and eat? Yeah.
But what do you do with yourself during those long daytime naps? I wait till he wakes up.
Don't you get bored? Oh.
No.
There's so much to look forward to.
Really? Bob and I think it's wonderful having a baby but if I had all this time my brain would turn to mush.
Not me.
I'm hungry.
Where are we going for lunch? - We don't eat lunch anymore.
- Well.
Where we going? Oh.
You just come along and you'll see.
Pamela.
You're gonna love this.

Come and join us.
I might.
Hi.
Sweetie.
You wanna work out with Mama.
Huh? You're gonna be a workout boy? Yeah.
Roger.
These are fantastic! Yeah.
They did come out well.
Didn't they? Oh.
I love the one with the braid.
Those are great.
- Where are the prints? - By the coffee.
I never dreamed I'd end up with a portfolio like this.
I like this one, and this one.
And Oh.
And this one.
You look just fantastic.
Would it be all right if I borrowed them tonight? What for? There's someone I'd like to show them to.
No.
no.
I don't want an outsider evaluating our work together.
I mean.
You understand this is not just the result of a photographer's work.
This is our collaboration.
You and me.
- Well.
I didn't mean to upset you.
- Oh.
It's okay.
Look.
Trust me.
We'll pick out together what's best for your portfolio you and I.
You and I.
Okay? Sure.
But wouldn't you make an exception? Just let me take a few of them.
Please.
Please? Okay.
But only the ones that I say are ready to be seen.
Sure.
He wasn't around a lot but I thought that was sort of typical of what he had So all those times my husband was at an engineering seminar he was really with what's-her-name.
Don't you know her name? Of course I do.
I just can't bring myself to say it.
Well.
Enough of that.
What are you doing tomorrow? Oh.
I've got some things to catch up with.
Wait a minute.
Did you know I was off duty? Yes.
I I inquired.
Discreetly.
Oh.
Did you now? I have a prescription for the doctor.
You've gotta get out.
Clear out the cobwebs.
You said you enjoyed tennis.
Do you wanna take me on? You do know how to tempt a guy.
Good.
Consider yourself tempted.
I'll get the check.
Mitch.
I have an account here.
There is no check.
It's already done.
I don't know if I care for that.
Oh.
Please.
I did invite you to dinner.
And I'm just grateful to you for helping me to start a new life.
Well.
Thanks.
It was a lovely dinner.
About tomorrow.
What time and where? Well.
I thought I'd pick you up about 1:00.
okay My place is kind of hard to find.
All right.
Sure.
I think this calls for a toast.
Very much so.
Here's to our new test well.
Hopefully.
The biggest gusher in a decade.
Hear.
Hear.
What are you gonna have for dinner? I'm hungry as a lion.
I think I'll have the biggest steak in the house.
Hey.
They're trying to set us on fire.
You know.
I think the best thing we did Was Well? Drop the other shoe.
J.
R.
What was the best thing we ever did? You were probably going to say how smart we were to option the adjacent property.
Yeah.
That's just exactly what I was gonna say.
Excuse me.
May I tell you the specialties of the house tonight? He's gonna have the biggest steak in the house.
I'll have another one of these, honey.
Make it double.
I thought you were starving.
Not anymore, Jordan.
The winds have shifted.
- Another all around then? - Yeah.
Thanks.
Hello.
J.
R.
Ewing here.
Mr.
Ewing.
Jerry Macon.
I'm just going off shift.
I thought you'd want me to check in.
I'm glad you called.
You got anything to report? Yes.
Sir.
Mr.
Barnes brought Mrs.
Ewing home about midnight.
- What time did he leave? - Well.
He didn't.
He's still there.
Macon.
I know it's been a long night for you.
Is it possible you could have snoozed off and missed him while he was leaving? Mr.
Ewing.
When I'm on a job.
I don't sleep.
I'm telling you, he's still there.
Now.
Do you want me to hang around or send for a replacement.
Or what? I want you to stay there and tell me what time he leaves.
- You hear? - Yes.
Sir.
Good night.
Or good morning.
Whatever it is.
Yeah.
Whatever.
Hi.
Good morning.
Cliff.
Do you remember where you are? I Sure.
Of course.
I remember.
I I find it hard to believe I got that messed up last night.
But Enough so that I was so worried about you driving home.
Oh.
My.
My.
My.
I had I had an idea for a more romantic ending to the evening than falling asleep on this couch.
Cliff.
All I wanted was a nice, pleasant evening with an old friend.
Nothing more.
That's it.
I'm I'm not ready.
You're still not over Dusty yet.
Huh? That's it partly.
Also the divorce from J.
R.
It's Everything's happening at one time.
All right.
I'll tell you what.
It's my responsibility to change that.
So today.
We can go on a picnic go riding.
Swimming.
How about that? Cliff.
It's just too soon yet.
I'd rather have you out of here before John Ross wakes up.
And he'll wake up any minute.
Okay.
But now.
Look.
I want I wanna tell you something.
You still look beautiful in the morning.
Cliff.
Please.
Okay.
I tell you what.
I understand.
I don't understand.
But I understand.
Donna? Donna? “Ray.
I've gone to Laredo to do some research.
Sorry you weren't here to say goodbye.
Seems you're never here lately.
I'll call.
Donna.
“ Mr.
Ewing.
From what you've told me our best approach seems to be what's called the “abandoned child procedure.
“ The first thing we do is go into court for a hearing which will give you and your wife temporary managing conservatorship of the child.
Well.
How long is temporary? Usually six months.
That period will be very useful for us.
I'm assuming the time will pass uneventfully with no problems for the child.
That will establish that you and Mrs.
Ewing are well-qualified to be the adoptive parents when we go in for the final adoption.
Now.
You didn't give me the name of the child's natural mother.
Kristin Shepard.
Shepard.
I have a feeling I know that name.
Is there anything else you'd like to know? Yes.
Did she have any other living relatives? A sister.
Good.
It would be very helpful if we could get an affidavit from her saying there's no knowledge as to the father and no objection to the adoption.
Can you get that in writing? I don't know.
I can try.
Is there a problem there? I'm not sure.
I'll try though.
Is there anything else? During the six-month period? Well.
Just advertising to find the natural father.
- What? - Lt's required.
Mr.
Ewing.
I have to be able to go into court at the end of this period and say that we'd made every effort to find the real father.
Well.
I don't like that.
Mr.
Eccles.
It's like asking for trouble.
Oh.
When I say advertise.
I don't mean we put it up in neon lights.
It's just the formality of running an ad in a couple of legal newspapers.
In this sort of case, the father probably doesn't know there is a baby.
And even if he does.
Unless he's a lawyer chances are he'll never see the ad.
What if.
Through some fluke.
He does read the ad.
You mean if he comes forward and makes a claim on the child.
Yes.
In that case.
There could be a problem.
He does have the right to the child.
What about Sue Ellen? She's still in the house.
And Barnes.
When did he leave? About an hour ago.
Do you want me to stay? I want that house kept under surveillance - Sly? - Yes, sir? Get me Wally Hampton on the phone.
Old Coal Industries.
Tulsa.
Oklahoma.
Right away.
Hello.
J.
R.
.
you old prairie dog.
How the hell are you, boy? Well.
I'm staying this side of the law.
As usual.
J.
R.
.
I sure was sorry to hear about your daddy.
You know.
That man was always my idol.
Well.
Thank you.
Wally.
I I really miss him.
Yeah.
Well.
We all do.
J.
R.
.
this ain't a social call, is it? No.
No.
Not exactly.
I need I need you to do me a favor.
- You just ask for it.
- Well.
I think we better talk face to face.
I'm gonna be down in Dallas in a couple of days.
Soon enough? That'd be fine.
Call me as soon as you get in.
We'll get together.
You take care now.
Son.
Bye-bye.
All right.
Wally.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Come on in.
- You coming or going? - I've gotta leave in a couple of minutes.
Oh.
Well.
I just wanted to show you something.
I knew it was your day off so I figured that you'd have some time.
Yeah.
But I don't have.
I wanted to show you these pictures that Roger took.
They're really incredible.
I think you're gonna be very proud of me.
I'm sure they're wonderful.
Can't we do it when I've got time? Mitch.
It was your idea that I go back to work.
See what I mean? Hello.
Again.
Well.
You're all ready.
That's great.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to interrupt.
Oh.
No.
No.
It's fine.
Come on in.
This is my wife, Lucy.
Lucy.
Evelyn Michaelson.
Your wife.
We' re separated.
Do we have a couple of minutes? Lucy brought by some pictures I'd like to look at.
Oh.
No.
Forget it.
Some other time maybe.
I should get going anyway.
- It was nice meeting you.
- It was very nice meeting you.
So did you recover from last night? Recover? Oh.
Yes.
I had a marvelous time.
Yeah.
Me too.
We'll have to do it again soon.
Well.
Let me get my things and we'll be on our way.
Hello.
Hello.
Clayton.
How are you? Hey.
Sue Ellen.
How nice to hear from you.
Caught me going out the door.
I'm flying up to Montana.
Dusty's riding in a rodeo tomorrow.
I want to catch it.
Oh.
Well.
I'm sorry.
I won't keep you.
Well.
You're not keeping me.
The plane doesn't leave till I turn on the fans.
- You all right? - Yes.
I'm just fine.
You don't sound too good to me.
No.
Honestly.
I I'm just fine.
And John Ross? Oh.
He's He's wonderful.
Sue Ellen what is the matter? Nothing.
I really just called to talk.
You're having trouble being alone.
Aren't you? I'm handling it.
I'm all right.
Say the word and I'll fly to Dallas.
There'll be other rodeos.
Oh.
No.
Clayton.
Don't change your plans on my account.
I wouldn't hear of it.
This is something I have to get used to.
- Wish Dusty luck.
Will you? - Sure.
Give my love to John Ross and tn you.
Thank you.
Clayton.
Have a good flight.
Good night.
Hello.
Afton.
Well.
Now.
You look downright scared, honey.
I have good reason to be.
Don't I? No.
Not anymore.
- J.
R.
.
excuse me.
I have a lot to do.
- Now.
Hold on.
As peculiar as this may sound.
We have a mutual interest.
Oh.
Really? “Mutual interest“ usually means what's good for J.
R.
Well.
How does this grab you? Last night.
Your boyfriend.
Cliff Barnes.
And my wife spent the night together.
Doesn't that bother you a bit? Well.
There's not a whole lot I can do about it, is there? You know what I always liked about you, Afton? When you knew what you wanted.
You went after it.
You gonna let Sue Ellen take Cliff away from you? Why should you care about that? Hell.
I just don't wanna see you get hurt anymore.
You're worried about me? About my feelings? Oh.
Come on.
J.
R.
You expect me to believe you? Well.
The thing is.
We gotta put a stop to it.
I thought you and Sue Ellen hated each other? I figured neither one of you gave a damn what the other did.
But.
You know.
You sound like a man carrying the torch for his ex-wife.
Now.
What really surprises me is that you could possibly care about anyone besides J.
R.
Ewing.
I love it.
I think you're jealous.
I think you're jealous right out of your cotton-picking gourd.
Afton.
You're the last person in the world I thought I'd see up this early.
Cliff.
I've got to talk to you.
All right.
Is something the matter? Well.
I didn't get too much sleep last night.
no.
What do you wanna talk about? About you and me.
If there is any you and me left to talk about.
All right.
Fine.
If there's no you and me then tell me about you and Sue Ellen.
Be straight with me, Cliff.
Are you serious about her? Yeah.
What are you doing? Are you trying to get back at J.
R.
? Some kind of revenge.
Fooling around with his ex-wife? Ls that what this is? No.
No.
I'll admit that it started out that way years ago.
But then something happened.
She wanted me and I blew it.
And now that she is divorced I realize how much I've always really wanted her.
I'm sorry.
Afton.
You said to be straight with you.
Are you in love with her? The truth.
The truth? Yeah.
Well.
You'll never get her.
Cliff.
J.
R.
will crucify you first.
He can't touch me.
I'm on solid ground financially.
I've turned Wentworth Tool and Die around.
I'm gonna make it one of the strongest companies in Dallas.
And I'm in control of my own life now.
In which there is no room left for me.
Let me tell you something.
Cliff.
J.
R.
will never.
Never let you have Sue Ellen.
I don't know how he'll do it but he will stop you.
He can't lay a glove on me.
Oh.
You are so wrong.
He'll break you.
Only this time.
You just may not be able to pick up all the pieces.
Where the hell have you been? You're over an hour late.
- I'm sorry.
- You weren't in an accident or anything? No.
It's personal.
I'm just very upset.
Well.
Would you change so we can get to work? Roger? I'm sorry.
I just don't I don't feel I can work today.
Lucy.
This is your first magazine cover.
Look.
What's going on? Tell me.
Maybe I can help.
It's Mitch.
Mitch? Who's Mitch? My husband.
You never said anything about a husband.
We' re separated.
So.
What about him? I discovered yesterday that he's interested in another woman.
Another woman than you? He can't be.
He is.
Can't he see how beautiful you are? How can he stand to be away from you? How can he wanna be with anyone else? Let's get to work, Lucy.
I have to change.
No.
No.
That's the look I want.
Look at me.
Yes.
Yes.
John Ross is fast asleep now.
Mrs.
Ewing.
So I'll say good night to you.
Mrs.
Chambers, by any chance.
Do you know how to play backgammon? Well.
I used to a little.
Haven't played in years.
Well.
Perhaps you could stay and play maybe one or two games with me.
Thank you.
But I can't tonight.
I don't get to see my nephew too often.
And he's taking me out for dinner.
Some other night, though.
All right.
Have a nice evening.
- You too.
Thank you.
Good night.
- Good night.
- Hello.
- Good morning.
Ray.
Good morning.
I was wondering if I was gonna hear from you.
The research that I'm doing It's gonna take more time that I thought.
Maybe a few more days.
You're gonna stay in Laredo.
Then? Yes.
I'm sorry to hear that.
The way things have been going between us lately.
Maybe it's for the best.
I mean.
That we have some time by ourselves.
Whatever you say.
- That's kind of the way I feel right now.
- Okay.
Goodbye.
Bye.
Hello.
How long have you all been standing there? Not long.
You look as if you're drowning in paperwork.
No.
No.
I'm not.
I love it.
Putting on a show for us.
Cliff? I mean.
We walk in and the secretaries are gone.
Everybody's gone.
Who is the only one working? The boss.
That's who.
That's how you make a company big and strong.
I don't know about that.
Daddy always said there's a proper size for every company.
And beyond that things get cumbersome.
Did he say that? Well.
Now.
Don't you believe him.
Because he'd love what I'm doing here.
I'm gonna make Wentworth Tool and Die the outstanding company in its field.
What do you think of that? I think we're keeping Pam and Bobby waiting for dinner.
Oh.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well.
Let's get going.
Katherine.
I'd like you to lighten up on your brother.
If he wants to make Wentworth Tool and Die his life's mission - well.
So be it.
- You got it.
Mama.
And it is kind of a mission in my life.
Because I've got a lot of reasons that I wanna make it number one.
A lot of reasons.
Ladies.
Yeah? J.
R.
? Mr.
Hampton is here.
Well.
Send him in.
- Hey.
Wally.
- Hey.
J.
R.
Doggone.
Boy.
It's good to see you.
Good to see you too.
I've been at Dallas a dozen times last year.
Missed you every darn time.
Listen.
The deals I do don't fall in your lap when you're standing still.
You gotta go out after them.
That's what keeps me moving.
Is that why you wanna see me? You got another one cooked up? We sure made a killing on that fuel we picked up from the government.
We had a little inside information on that bit of business.
You always seem to have the right old boy on the payroll.
- Sit down.
I'll buy you a drink.
- Boy.
I thought you was never gonna ask.
And no water.
J.
R.
Don't dilute ambrosia.
You know.
Talk about putting people on a payroll I got a fellow I want you to meet.
I think he'll make you a first-rate chief operating officer.
I got me a first-rate chief operating officer.
Well.
The way I see it, this old boy wouldn't be doing much of anything.
You're gonna foot the bill for his salary? Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A big salary.
Bonuses.
Expense accounts.
Use of the company jet.
You know.
All the perks.
Suppose I go along with this.
What am I gonna tell this here fireball? You just tell him he's great.
That his reputation extends far beyond the Texas borders.
And he's just gonna have to move to your headquarters in Tulsa.
Oklahoma.
For how long? Six months.
Then you can fire him for embezzlement or something equally as disgraceful.
All right.
I'll do it for you, J.
R.
What's his name? What's he do? He's president of Wentworth Tool and Die.
Name is Cliff Barnes.
You know something.
J.
R.
? When we're finished with this Mr.
Barnes.
He may never work again.
Yeah.
I'm counting on that.
- Good morning.
- Morning.
Morning.
Hey.
Hi.
Little buddy.
How are you doing? Well.
You're looking good.
Can I have a bite of that? No? No Cliff Barnes? John Ross.
Your daddy's here.
I guess having John Ross around so much you don't know what it's like without him.
- Well.
I do miss him on the weekends.
- Yeah.
I never realized that Southfork was such a big house.
- It's so empty there.
I tell you.
- Really? I thought you were the one that filled up the house, J.
R.
No.
No.
This little boy right here is the one that fills up that house.
What are you doing today? Well.
I haven't decided yet.
Maybe I'm the one that will have the empty house.
You don't have any plans? There's a lot of things I could be doing.
Oh.
Yeah.
I'm sure there is.
I kind of promised John Ross I'd take him to the kiddie park.
Would you like to come? No.
Thank you.
Well.
You said you didn't have anything to do.
Come on.
Sue Ellen.
When was the last time you sat on a seesaw or had a hot dog? Lookie there.
I got your mommy to smile.
We'd both love to have you.
Oh.
I don't know.
J.
R.
If you didn't enjoy it, I'd drive you home anytime you wanted to.
I think it'd be a good idea for the boy to see his mama and daddy together sometimes.
Just once in a while.
John Ross? Would you like your mama to go with you today? - Yeah.
- How about that? I'll go get my jacket.
Well.
Boy.
I tell you.
You have a remarkable way of persuading ladies.
Just like your daddy.
- Come on.
I'll have you a race.
Let's go.
- Oh.
No.
I'm waterlogged.
Oh.
Waterlogged, all right.
Pam.
Can you put some lotion on my back? Sure.
Oh.
Honey.
You better be careful with that back.
She's gonna be a high-powered model and it'll be worth millions of dollars.
A couple of half-dollars maybe.
Pam.
Liz asked you back to work? We talked about it.
Are you gonna do it? Oh.
Not just yet.
Maybe when Christopher's older.
- There.
You're done.
- Thanks.
Honey.
I'd think about it if I were you.
Might feel good to get back to work.
Oh.
I think he's had enough sun.
I'm gonna take him upstairs.
Bobby.
When are you gonna have the court hearing on the adoption? Well.
I don't know.
No time has been set.
Well.
I guess I'm getting impatient.
Honey.
The lawyer told me it's all pretty routine stuff.
I mean.
Most mothers don't even attend the hearing.
Well.
Not me.
I wanna see it and hear it for myself.
Then I'll believe it.
Isn't this fun? How are you doing? How do you like this.
John Ross? Pretty good? How do you like it? Here we go.
Come on.
Buddy.
Come on.
Come on.
John Ross.
Come on.
You little rascal.
Come on.
Buddy.
Here you go.
Hey.
This way.
Hey.
Come on.
This way.
Come on.
Buddy.
Hey.
Lookie here.
There's a monkey.
I don't have any change.
Here.
You stay here and play with the monkey.
Sue Ellen.
I don't have any change.
Toss me my jacket.
Thank you.
The boy is having a good time.
Isn't he? Yes.
I must admit.
I'm having a ball myself.
How about you, honey? Yes.
I'm having a wonderful time.
Yeah.
I think John Ross is happy seeing us both together again.
Here.
John Ross.
Here you go.
Buddy.
I don't have any pennies.
Here.
Give him a silver dollar.
Here you go.
Shake hands with him.
Go on.
Shake hands with him.
There you go.
Hi.
How did you manage to tear yourself away? Well.
Actually we didn't get a chance to talk when you came over.
And I didn't see your portfolio.
I'd love to see the pictures.
Forget it.
Actually.
I came over to explain about Evelyn.
What's to explain? You go for older women.
I don't go for older women.
Evelyn happens to be a nice person.
- Oh.
I'll bet she is.
- She is.
Look.
She's had a rough time.
She went through a divorce and she's feeling insecure.
She needs someone to talk to.
Yeah.
Pillow talk.
Who said anything about that? Have you gone to bed with her? Lucy”.
The way things have been between us.
I'm not sure it's any of your business.
You're ducking me.
Mitch have you slept with her or not? - No.
- You mean.
Not yet.
Yes.
Maybe I mean not yet.
Goodbye.
Mitch.
There you go.
Keep the change.
Bud.
Hey.
You really had a good time? - Lovely.
It really was fun.
- Yeah.
You know.
It's a shame for it to end just yet.
I'll tell you what.
Why don't you drive with me and John Ross out to Southfork and have dinner.
There you go.
Buddy.
There you go.
I'm gonna have to leave you my coat.
Mama would love to see you.
Everybody would.
It'd really be fine having you and John Ross and me at the same table again.
I'd kind of like to keep this nice family feeling going.
Sue Ellen.
For the boy's sake, of course.
I'd drive you home anytime you wanted to.
I don't think so.
J.
R.
I better go home now.
Okay.
- Sue Ellen.
I wanna thank you for about the nicest day I can remember.
And the Mama Bear gave the Baby Bear a nice.
Warm bath and made him good and new.
And the Daddy Bear said to the Baby Bear.
He says: “What are you gonna do next time you see a black.
Furry animal with a white stripe down his back?“ And the Baby Bear said.
“Well.
I'm just gonna walk away.
“ You still like that? Yeah? Even though it's hard to keep your eyes awake? You know.
John Ross I have a feeling your mama's gonna be back on Southfork real soon.
Yeah.
I think she's learning that absence makes the heart grow fonder.
Yeah.
I have a feeling we'll all be together real soon.
