Dallas s09e13 Episode Script

If she were to move back she would forfeit custody? - That's right.
Obviously, we cannot afford to let Mr.
Adams go.
Until we've completed our business here with J.
R.
And Jack.
I'm not gonna give up on you just because of one night.
Maybe that's what you should do.
Just how much are you and I gonna make off this? You know how much those fields are worth.
No, I'm not talking about the oil fields.
I'm talking about Jack's inheritance.
Sue Ellen, he needs his mother.
I'm asking you to consider moving back to Southfork.
You sound pleased about something.
Oh, yeah, I am, really am.
Harv was successful.
The court granted your motion to appeal John Ross' custody.
Uh, no, no, we lost that round.
But we won the fight.
I don't understand.
When Sue Ellen found out that I had no chance to appeal she came out here to Southfork to pick John Ross up and then And then something happened.
What happened? When it came right down to it, she couldn't take him away from Southfork.
He's here right now and he's here to stay.
Well, did Sue Ellen say why she was changing her mind? No, not in so many words.
An attack of conscience or, uh, common sense or maybe she just realized what I'd been telling her that there's no place else for John Ross to be.
He belongs here with his family.
And no little piece of paper is gonna change that fact.
J.
R.
, this is really wonderful news.
I'm so happy for you.
Ha, ha, well, you should be happy for both of us, darling.
We've got a lot to look forward to now that the fight for John Ross is behind us.
S it behind us? I mean, what if Sue Ellen has second thoughts? Well, I'm looking into that now.
Uh, as a matter of fact, Harv just drove in.
Now, don't you worry about a thing, darling.
I got my son and I got you, and I plan on keeping it that way.
Uh, what do you say we celebrate tonight, huh? I can't wait.
- Neither can I.
I love you.
Bye.
- J.
R? - Oh, Harv.
Thanks for coming out here so quickly.
Uh, here, sit down.
- Thank you.
- Really appreciate this.
Can I have Teresa get you something to drink? Oh, no, thank you.
You know, J.
R.
, I still find it hard to believe that Sue Ellen decided to leave John Ross here.
What were her reasons? I don't know.
What I would like to know, though, is where this leaves us legally.
Well, I didn't have much time.
But I did manage to locate a test case that was heard in New York some years back.
Now, the situation here, very similar to yours except in this instance: It was the father who won legal custody.
At the last moment, he decided to allow his son to remain at home with the mother.
Mm-hm, yeah, and? And a few months later, he had a change of heart.
He came by for the boy.
Uh, the mother refused to give him up.
But the judge upheld the father's right to take the boy even though a substantial amount of time had passed by between granting the custody and its execution.
Are you telling me Sue Ellen can hold this decision over my head indefinitely? There's nothing I can do about it? For the foreseeable future, yes.
Sue Ellen retains legal custody of John Ross despite the fact that so far, she's failed to exercise her right.
Well, that's totally unacceptable.
I'm not gonna live under the fear that Sue Ellen can take my boy away whenever the mood strikes her.
- No way.
- Sorry, J.
R.
You asked me where you stood legally.
I've told you.
Well, maybe it's time you tell me what we can do to change this situation.
Well, short of Sue Ellen deciding to move back to Southfork, nothing.
Now, wait a minute.
If she were to move back, she would forfeit custody? That's right.
But I don't see much chance of that coming to pass.
Hmm I'm still waiting for an explanation.
You owe me an explanation.
After all, we had plans and they included John Ross.
Mostly they were your plans.
You've always made plans, for Kristin, for me.
Of course I did.
You were my children.
Your children had feelings too.
You were too busy planning for their future to hear what they needed in the present.
That's not true.
A funny thing happened when I was watching you help John Ross get ready to leave Southfork.
I suddenly remembered something that happened a long time ago.
You were helping me get ready for one of my birthday parties.
I think it was my seventh.
What does that have to do with your decision today? I wanted to wear my yellow dress.
You had something else in mind.
Oh, I know it must seem insignificant to you now but it wasn't then.
Do you remember? Blue-and-white dotted Swiss.
Oh, for heaven's sake, what does it matter what happened when you were 7? Because you were still planning for me when I was 17.
The night of my senior prom you picked out my dress and the boy I went with.
Well, that's not altogether true.
It is true! And you know it's true.
I came home drunk that night for the very first time.
You can't blame your drinking on me.
I'm not blaming you.
I'm just trying to make you understand.
I know you've always meant well but you never let up and you never listened.
I don't want that to happen to my son.
John Ross is trying to tell me what he needs right now.
And I'm trying to hear him.
Do you really think that leaving him out there is the answer? I don't know.
I honestly don't know what the answer is yet.
Can I give you a hand? Uh, I think I have it.
Closing up early today.
Yeah.
It's a slow day.
Come on, let's walk.
I thought a lot about what happened last night.
So have I.
Now, if I can put into words why I reacted the way I did, I would.
I guess I'm just not ready to start another relationship.
Look I understand how you feel about Bobby.
I really do.
And I respect that.
And if I came on too strong, too fast I'm sorry.
You mean a lot to me, Jenna.
And, um I'm not gonna give up on you just because of one night.
Maybe that's just what you should do.
You don't really mean that.
I don't wanna hurt you, Jack.
I think it's better for both of us if we just If we just stop seeing each other.
How on earth did Adams get ahold of this information? He's obviously a better detective than we suspected.
He's a dangerous detective.
I hate to think what would've happened if this report had gotten to J.
R.
It didn't.
Thanks to you, it didn't.
Are you absolutely sure Adams' partner didn't see you take that envelope? Absolutely.
I was alone in the outer office when the mail came.
Mr.
Barker does not have a clue.
Lucky for him.
Obviously, we cannot afford to let Mr.
Adams go.
Obviously.
Or at least until we've completed our business here with J.
R.
And Jack.
Oh, yes.
And Jack.
Call Nicholas in Athens.
Inform him that we have averted a disaster that his carelessness nearly caused.
He'll want to know what to do with the detective now that we've got the letter.
Have him use our police contact.
I want this Adams detained.
The longer, the better.
Do you care what it is we arrange to have him charged with? You handle the details.
As long as he's behind bars until our work is done.
Okay.
Hello? - Harding? How's your backswing? Oh, the same as always, Clayton.
The more I play, the worse it seems to get.
It's good to hear from you.
You in Houston? No.
Uh, we haven't talked in quite a while, just thought I'd give you a call.
Well, I've known you too long to buy that.
This isn't strictly a social call, is it? Well, I guess you've known me too long at that.
Uh, I called because I'd like your help in something.
As your friend or as your attorney? Both.
Okay.
Shoot.
I've been planning on selling some of my subsidiaries for quite a while.
Uh, I think I better get to it.
Uh, specifically the heavy-machinery plants down in Galveston and Houston.
Well, you started those operations from scratch.
They mean a lot to you.
I know, they do.
But, uh, Farlow refineries have always been my bread and butter.
And, uh, well, tell you the truth, I just don't have the time or the desire to take care of these other operations the way I should.
I'd like you to handle the sale.
Well, I, uh I don't suppose I have to tell you you'd be better off using an industrial broker for this.
No, brokers are only interested in making the sale, not being discreet.
And that's the way I want this thing handled as quickly and as quietly as possible.
I'll take care of it.
Clayton? That movie you wanted to watch is about to come on.
Well, I'd appreciate that, Harding.
Night.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know you were on the phone.
Oh, Ellie, just a little business, that's all.
Come on, let's go catch the start of that movie.
Yeah.
Sue Ellen.
Thanks for agreeing to see me.
I know it wasn't easy for you.
You said it was important.
Mm-hm.
I'm just having a little coffee.
Like some? Nothing for me, thanks.
So, what's this all about? Well, I just wanted to tell you face to face how much I appreciate what you did today.
I know how hard it was for you to leave John Ross with me at Southfork.
If the tables were turned, I'm not sure I'd be able to do the same thing.
We'll never know, will we? What I do know is that we still haven't solved the problem as far as John Ross is concerned.
Sue Ellen, he needs his mother just as much as he needs me and the home that Southfork provides for him.
If I didn't know you better, J.
R.
, I would almost believe you mean that.
I do.
I'm asking you to consider moving back to Southfork.
You've got to be joking.
I never joke when it comes to our son.
There's got to be more to it than that, J.
R.
If I were to move back how would that affect my rights as the custodial parent? You'd forfeit custody.
And you expect me to believe that fact has nothing to do with the invitation to move back home? I'd never be able to convince you of that.
Sue Ellen, you left John Ross at Southfork because in your heart you knew it was best for him.
And your moving back home would make it even better for him.
Promise me you'll at least consider the idea.
That's all I'm asking.
You're asking for a lot.
I always do, don't I? But this time, I'm not asking for me.
I'm asking for our son.
Morning.
Clayton? Ray.
- Good morning.
Boy, I didn't hear you sneak up on me.
Daydreaming about all that expensive horseflesh we're about to buy, huh? - What? - At the auction.
We're supposed to leave for Lubbock this afternoon.
Ray, I'm sorry.
That's okay.
Uh, me and Hap, we can wait until you're ready or we can book a later flight, no problem.
I'm afraid that you and Hap are gonna have to go on without me.
I don't understand.
Uh, don't you wanna go through with this? No, I wanna go through with it.
It's just that, uh, I have made other plans.
What is it, Clayton? Is anything wrong? No, everything's fine.
- I think we ought to do this another time.
- No, don't Don't do that.
Now, this auction's too important to miss.
You know that.
Just go without me, that's all.
There are going to be some pretty expensive animals I'm gonna be bidding on.
I'd feel a lot more comfortable with you there helping us spend our money.
Ray, I trust your judgment.
I'm sure if you're gonna like it, I am going to like it.
I sure hope so.
- Talk to you as soon as I get back.
- Mm-hm.
To tell you the truth, J.
R.
, Angelica Nero sounded us out like she did a lot of folks in Dallas.
And for a while, we thought she'd get in bed with us.
Ha, ha, so to speak.
Yes, but she walked right past our offer straight to Ewing Oil.
Now you're interested in buying a piece of my action.
Well, we know that it's going to take an enormous amount of money.
And we'd be willing to take second position.
Well, that's very kind of you.
And you're right, it's a huge undertaking.
But Ewing Oil can handle it.
Now, thank you, gentlemen.
Appreciate your concern, honestly.
You could at least pretend to think it over.
Oh, this is a pretty fast shove-off.
Well, there's nothing to think over.
I've done my homework.
I've weighed the pros and cons.
And it is a Ewing Oil deal, pure and simple.
- I appreciate your friendship.
- Sure.
Friendship counts.
- But mostly it's a matter of, uh - Money.
- Knew you'd understand.
Ha, ha.
- Lf change your mind - I'll call you.
Jerry, you've really picked a beautiful site.
- I don't know how you pulled this together.
- Money, lots of it.
Well, that's what it's for.
I hope you realize that not even Graisco has enough money to pay these bills forever.
You're running out of money? Well, medical research is kind of a bottomless pit.
- We've already talked about this.
- Right.
- We need a fundraiser.
- A pro? - Desperately.
- Okay, okay.
We will start searching for one right away.
Just leave me out of it, though.
I'm a little tied up here.
- I promise, I'll get right on it.
- You're my witness.
- Okay.
- I gotta run.
Bye.
- Bye.
- See you, pal.
He is quite a guy.
Yep.
Yes, he is.
Where are you going to find a fundraiser? Europe.
Europe? Why so far away? It's a perfect excuse for us to get away.
Get away from what? You have been working your tail off at Ewing Oil and I've been going crazy with all this.
We need some time together.
Well, you know I can't just walk out.
Oh, I'm not asking you to walk out.
I'm asking you to take a vacation, some time off with me.
I don't know.
I'm not getting enough of you.
Well, I'm just worried about the timing.
Timing? Now, that is one thing I've become an expert on.
You're taking advantage of me, you know that? Yep.
I've heard the dollar's still strong in Paris.
- Um, could you sign here, please? - Uh-huh.
Oh, and on page 3, I noticed - Oh, did I miss that? - Mm-hm.
Angelica, I don't know how you like to work during startup but, uh, I have an agreement with my field supervisor that if anything unexpected turns up he's, uh He's empowered to make any changes that are necessary.
That sounds reasonable.
Have your people ever worked off the Venezuelan coast before? No.
Does that concern you? No.
I keep forgetting what a confident man you are.
I'd like you to, uh, cosign these checks when you get a chance.
Okay.
Are your rigs on the way to the site? Uh, well, the weather's held us up a little bit, but we'll make it.
Our timetable's very critical, you know that.
Yes, you made that clear.
There's something you haven't made clear that bothers me a bit, though.
Just how much are you and I gonna make off this little venture? You know how much those fields are worth.
No, I'm not talking about the oil fields.
I'm talking about Jack's inheritance.
Why are you so concerned about that? Well, the sooner he gets his money, the sooner I get mine.
J.
R.
, if I were you, I would worry less about Jack's money and more about having him where I need him, when I need him.
No problem.
No, I'm not sure I understand.
You won custody fair and square.
You wanted your son more than anything in the world.
I thought I wanted him more than anything else in the world.
But not enough to make him so unhappy.
Well, then what on earth happened? When I went there when I saw him, when I talked to him I realized how miserable I was making him just to satisfy myself.
Just to satisfy yourself? He's your son.
He belongs with you.
In the long run, he would've understood that.
In the long run, he might end up hating me for the rest of his life.
I cannot take that risk.
All right.
All right.
Time will tell, I suppose.
In the meantime, if you'll arrange for visitation rights um, how often do you intend to see him? - That depends.
- On what? On whether or not I move back to Southfork.
What? I have to think of that alternative.
That's not an alternative.
That's suicide.
- That's not fair.
- Fair? After everything J.
R.
Has done to you, you're going to go back to him? I'm not going back to him.
The man has damn near destroyed you.
After you've worked so hard to become your own person.
Sue Ellen, for God's sake, what are you doing? It's because I am my own person that I would even consider doing this.
Have you considered the risk to yourself to your own survival? If I do decide to go back I have to believe that I'm strong enough to handle whatever happens.
Part of being your own person is learning to trust your instincts.
What do your instincts tell you about you and me? I don't know what would happen to us.
I think you do know.
I think you thought about it long and hard.
I think you know exactly what would happen.
If you go back you and I are gonna wind up sneaking around back alleys, hotel rooms and maybe a pad somewhere.
And we deserve better.
If you decide to go back you're gonna push me out of your life forever.
Is that what you want? Is that what you really want? Yeah, it's open.
- Howdy.
- Hey, perfect timing.
Just got back.
Oh, good, good.
The horse auction, remember? Oh, right, right, ha, ha, that's right.
How did it go? Ha, ha, well, convince me you care, and I'll tell you.
I'm sorry.
I I've just got a few things on my mind, that's all.
Ah, well, go grab a beer, have a seat.
I, uh, feel like taking a little walk.
What do you say? Well, I say if it's privacy you're after, Donna's not here.
Shoot.
Well, it's about Jenna.
I think I screwed everything up with her.
How'd that happen? I don't know.
I guess just moving too fast.
I'll give you money not to say "I told you so.
" Ha, ha.
Oh, you won't hear those words out of this mouth.
So, what are you gonna do about it, Jack? Well, if I knew that, I wouldn't be sitting here.
I really don't know what to tell you, Jack.
Jenna is a very special lady.
She's been through some very difficult and trying times lately.
It's kind of no wonder you spooked her.
Ray.
I'm crazy about her.
I can't just walk away from it.
I don't wanna walk away from it.
There's gotta be something I can do.
Yeah.
You can wait.
You can wait until she's ready to let you into her life.
Now, I don't know how long that's gonna take exactly but I can pretty well guarantee you that it's gonna be worth it.
Sure.
So, what do I do in the meantime? Stay away? Well, not necessarily.
Just go easy.
Give her plenty of room.
It's easy for you to say.
- You're a married man.
- Ha, ha.
And glad of it.
I wouldn't be single again with all of your problems for anything in the world.
- Thanks a lot.
- Oh, come on.
I've thought about it a lot, J.
R.
Well, I assume you came to a decision or I wouldn't be sitting here.
I'm willing to move back to Southfork.
Under one condition.
What's that? I want Mandy Winger out of the picture.
I wasn't aware that you cared.
I don't.
That is, I don't care what you do with her on your own time.
But I will not have you flaunting her at Southfork in front of John Ross or in public.
That's your only condition? Yes, and it's nonnegotiable.
I'm moving back to Southfork to give John Ross the kind of home life he deserves with both a mother and a father.
That doesn't leave room for a mistress.
Do I make myself clear? Perfectly.
Do you agree to it? Yes, but I have a condition myself.
You keep Dusty Farlow out of John Ross' sight and mine.
Can't have it both ways, honey.
That won't be a problem.
Discretion's never been your strong point, Sue Ellen.
It's gonna be interesting to see how you handle this saddle tramp.
I wonder how he's gonna like having to sneak around to see you.
You have a way of making everything sound dirty.
Why don't we talk about it again after you break the news to Mandy? Yes.
Well, Pam, gorgeous? Oh, yes.
Oh, gorgeous.
- Stand still.
Oh.
I never knew your brother was such a romantic.
Imagine giving me the kind of wedding I've always wanted even after he's already married me, ha, ha.
- You're already married? - Uh-huh.
Jamie, I can assure you that no one's ever accused Cliff of being a romantic.
You must bring it out in him.
Isn't this sleeve longer? It wouldn't surprise me, Pam, if you and I didn't switch places pretty soon.
What do you mean? I mean, that I'll be standing over there and you'll be standing over here getting pins poked into you.
Ouch.
Sorry.
Well? Oh, I don't know.
Oh, I bet Mark would marry you in a second if you'd say yes.
You were going to once.
I know that, but a lot of things have happened since then.
Well, you still love him, don't you? Yes.
And it would be nice if Christopher had a father again, wouldn't it? Ha, ha, oh, Jamie, you sound as though someone paid you to talk me into this.
Oh, no, Pam.
I just want you to be happy.
And I appreciate that.
But there are other considerations.
Let's see here.
Uh, could you excuse us for a moment, please? - Just call me whenever you're ready.
- Thank you.
It's Mark's illness, isn't it? I couldn't bear to lose somebody else, Jamie.
To make a life with Mark and then have it all taken away from me? I'm just not that strong.
And do you think that you can avoid that just by not marrying him? Oh, Pam.
I know that you're not asking me for my opinion but wouldn't it be better to have it all for as long as you possibly can? Mother, we're not gonna solve anything if you don't talk to me.
There's nothing to solve, Sue Ellen.
You've made your choice.
Now I must get on with my life.
Why do you make it sound like I have to choose between you and my son? You could have had us both.
I could have had both of you if I brought John Ross here to live with us, is that it? Yes.
Away from J.
R.
And his terrible influence.
Mother, this may be hard for you to understand but J.
R.
Is a wonderful father and that's all that matters to me right now.
It doesn't matter to you what kind of husband he is? No.
That's not why I'm going back to Southfork.
I can raise John Ross without J.
R and J.
R.
Can raise John Ross without me but that wouldn't be giving our son the best of everything available.
And that's what I want for him.
Can you understand that? Isn't that what every mother wants for her child? The best of everything? Isn't that what you wanted for me and for Kristin? Of course it is.
Then why can't you see that I'm doing the right thing? Why can't you see that you must have done something right with me if this is the choice I'm making? Did I? You must have.
L I wanted to, Sue Ellen.
L I wanted to, but you always made me feel that I did terrible things to you and made you into something that you didn't want to be.
All I ever wanted for you was for you to have the good things that I never had.
Is that so wrong? No.
No, Mother.
That's all I wanted for John Ross.
Do you see now why I have to go back to Southfork? To do everything in my power to make sure he grows up to be the best he can be.
I'm sorry, Sue Ellen.
I'm sorry for not being a better mother than I was.
But I did the best I knew how.
That's all any of us can hope to do.
You don't have to leave Dallas, you know? Oh, yes, I do.
And you know what? Something tells me you're going to be just fine.
My darling.
But you'll be coming back for visits.
Oh, sometime maybe, sure.
Right now I wanna pack and get about as far away from here as I can.
Any plans at all? Well, I never was too good at making plans, Daddy.
Even when I do, I can't seem to make them work.
Well, maybe they were just the wrong plans.
"I told you so.
" Is that what I'm hearing? Dusty.
It's okay, Miss Ellie.
I had it coming.
You both warned me about getting involved with Sue Ellen again I didn't wanna hear what you had to say.
Dusty, it's no one's fault that things didn't work out the way you hoped they would.
Bye.
I'll miss you.
Goodbye.
Steve, I'm really concerned.
You just can't go on drifting this way.
Daddy, it's not what I want for myself either.
Maybe when I get back on the rodeo circuit I get some distance from all this here I'll be able to think some things through.
I hope so.
You, uh, be careful, huh? - I'm always careful around horses.
- Ha, ha.
- It's the women that get me in trouble.
- Ha, ha.
Well, uh, call us once in a while, let us know where you are.
Sure.
You take care too.
Mm-hm.
Yeah.
- Hi, Mandy.
Hello, Cliff.
- How are you? - Fine.
How are you doing? Hey, you don't have to cover up with me.
I've been there.
Ha, ha.
If somebody made a list of the bodies that guy's left in his wake I'd be numero uno.
And I don't wanna be those people that say you should've known better.
I just wanna say I really feel bad for you.
What are you talking about? Oh, good Lord.
You don't know? I don't know what? I thought J.
R.
Would've told you.
Sue Ellen's moving back into Southfork.
I don't believe you.
Well, it's true.
Pam told me.
- When? - Yesterday.
Pam knew yesterday? Thanks.
Well, what a nice surprise.
This is sure a day for them.
Just when were you gonna tell me, anyway? - Tell you what? - What the hell do you think? That Sue Ellen is moving back to Southfork.
We only decided that yesterday, darling.
Uh - Mandy, listen - No, you listen.
The one thing I counted on with you this time was honesty.
I gave up everything and everyone for you, J.
R.
, everything.
Because you told me you loved me.
I do love you.
And I have been honest with you.
Sure, when it's been convenient.
Mandy, you're making too much out of this whole thing.
And I'm sorry you found out about this before I had a chance to tell you.
But, yes.
Yes, Sue Ellen is moving back to Southfork.
Not because she wants to for herself and not because I want her there.
Lord knows, that's the last thing I want.
We're only doing this for John Ross.
So you're reconciling for the sake of your child.
We're not reconciling anything, honey.
She is simply gonna be living there so that John Ross will have both of us every day.
You know how hard it is on children, being shuttled from one parent to another.
It's not fair.
He deserves more than that.
And I love that boy.
Then you've chosen him over me.
- You know better than that.
- I don't know anything.
Well, then, let me tell you, darling.
There isn't anything in the world I wouldn't do for John Ross.
But that doesn't change our relationship.
We're just gonna have to keep things a little quiet for a while, that's all.
Quiet? Yeah, you know, uh, keep a low profile, for appearances.
- Sue Ellen and I have an agreement - I don't care about Sue Ellen.
I care about us.
Just what do you have in mind for us? Well, for a while, we're gonna have to stick pretty close to your place.
It's just temporary, until things settle down.
Now, look, Mandy, I'm gonna make this up to you.
Just give me a little time.
Time.
You talk as if we have an endless supply of it, J.
R.
But we don't.
I think our time just may be running out.
I almost can't stand it, you are so handsome.
Oh, Mom.
Well, if I can't say it to you, then who can? Besides, I have a feeling that when you are grown up, the girls are gonna be all over you.
What do you think about that? Oof.
Hmm, girls are okay.
What's the matter? You sure you're not going home after dinner? This is my home, John Ross.
But you moved away before.
But I'm here now, for keeps.
I'm gonna be here for dinner, and I'll be here after dinner and I'll be here to tuck you in at night and I'll be here when you wake up in the morning.
Every morning, forever? Forever.
Oh.
So glad you came home.
So am I.
So am I.
Thank you, Teresa.
That looks beautiful.
You know, I can't think of the last time that we all had dinner together like this.
- Whew, it's been a long time.
- Yes, it has.
Oh, thank you.
That's so pretty.
- Sounds like I missed a good time.
You sure did.
- Hi, Clayton.
- Hi.
Clayton, I was just telling Jack about the horse auction.
They had horses there from all over the country.
They had riding horses and working horses.
This guy from Louisville brought down a string of Irish racers.
Not for sale, just for show.
Just to make the Texans eat their hearts out.
- I guess.
- Excuse me.
Yeah, sure.
You should've been there.
Did your mouth water for a couple of those Thoroughbreds, huh? Oh, I don't know.
Those, uh, thin ankles kind of make me nervous.
- Four-legged or two-legged? - Oh.
Hi.
Hi.
I wanted to call you, but, uh, I just didn't know what to say.
Jack, there's nothing you can say.
Jenna, isn't there something I can do to make things right? I don't think so.
It's me.
It's not you.
I'm sorry.
Come on, Mom.
- Hey, look who's here.
- Sue Ellen.
Hello, John Ross.
Hey, Grandma.
How are you? - Wonderful.
- Sue Ellen.
- Oh, Miss Ellie.
So good to see you.
Here you go.
It's just sinking in, Miss Ellie.
Coming back to Southfork means more than just being here for John Ross.
It's family.
And I seem to need this family.
And this family needs you, Sue Ellen.
I'm so glad you're here.
Well, good evening, everybody.
Daddy.
Hi, son.
How you doing? There you go, bud.
Mama.
Ha, ha.
Sue Ellen.
Isn't this nice? Ha, ha.
Isn't this real nice? Mama? Having our whole family back together again.
Now I think we should drink to J.
R and to an old saying my granddaddy taught me.
Don't get mad, get even.
I'm mighty glad you decided to join me tonight.
