Dallas s09e16 Episode Script
174116 - Twenty-Four Hours
What are you telling me? She could die? If we don't find her brother, we may not be able to save her life.
You have no way of knowing what I put Jack through.
It's because of me that Jack's not here for Jamie.
It's because of me that Jamie's gonna die.
If anybody has seen this man, I am personally offering $25,000 for anybody with information that will lead us to him.
There's hundreds of people looking for him, which is good news for us but it's not gonna do Jamie any good.
I'll go tell her husband.
Tell me what? Coleman, get this to the lab, stat.
Yes, doctor.
- How is she? - She's stabilized for the moment.
We're into a high-risk situation.
The lab, however, has completed the antigen analysis of her blood.
So we can call the blood banks in on this.
Isn't there something the research center can do? Well, we can certainly help.
I'll call Dr.
Kenderson.
I'll have him put our computer facilities at your disposal.
Our data files aren't complete but maybe if we're lucky, we can find a match.
Luck is what we're gonna need, Mr.
Graison.
Is there any word yet on your wife's brother? No, uh-uh, no.
We've left messages for him everywhere we can think of.
He's bound to show up soon.
I certainly hope you're right.
Because the odds are in favor that his blood will match Mrs.
Barnes' better than anyone else's that we're likely to locate in the time we have left.
Yeah.
What do you mean, in the time we have left? If we don't find a compatible donor for your wife she's in grave danger of losing kidney function.
And that may trigger the shutdown of the other organs.
What are you telling me, that she could die? The next 24 hours are gonna be critical.
Now, we're gonna do everything we can.
But if we don't find the blood, if we don't find her brother we may not be able to save her life.
Are you sure you feel all right? Mom, I'm fine.
I'm just a little tired.
Stop worrying about me.
You know, I am your mother.
I'm supposed to worry about you.
What are you reading? Catcher in the Rye? It's okay, isn't it? Hmm, I guess so.
It's, um, practically a classic.
Dana lent it to me.
Mom, you know how I told you that Dana and Elizabeth were going to Whitley Academy? Mm-hm.
Well, can I go too? - Absolutely not.
- Why not? Because you're too young to go off to boarding school, that's why.
Mom, I'd be home on the weekends, and I'd call you every day.
Plus, I'd be getting a great education.
You're already getting a great education.
And I don't want you living away from me.
I'm afraid, young lady, that's that.
Can't we even talk about it? We just did.
If Bobby were here, he would let me go.
He would at least listen to me.
You know, I have listened to you.
The answer is still no.
Thanks for nothing.
You better watch your tone of voice when you talk to me, young lady.
One hour and lights are out.
You're awfully quiet tonight.
What are you thinking? Oh, something happened at the office this morning.
You wanna talk about it? No, darling, I don't wanna bother you.
It's no bother.
If something's troubling you, I wanna hear it.
Well, this morning, one of my best engineers just up and quit.
Went to work for Westar.
Why'd he do that? Well, he said he felt he wasn't getting a fair deal at Ewing.
Westar made him a better offer.
Oh, God, I thought we trusted each other.
And then he just leaves and goes to work for a rival company.
Well, that sort of thing happens in business all the time, doesn't it? Yeah, maybe.
But I'm a reasonable man.
We could've worked something out.
He never even told me what his problem was.
He never talked to you about it before today? Gave you a chance to improve on Westar's offer? No.
Heh, I'm not a mind reader.
How was I to know he was unhappy? How do you know something like that unless somebody comes and tells you? J.
R.
, what would you say if? Pardon me, Mr.
Ewing.
You wanted to make a call at 9:00.
All right, thanks.
That, um, Angelica wanted me to call her at 9.
Uh, go ahead.
What were you saying? Angelica? Yeah.
She can wait.
Go on.
It was nothing.
Really.
I have been traveling You should've taken the Concorde.
Look, it's almost 6:00 in the morning, my time, and I have no patience for this.
Now, what we thought we would have to wait months to accomplish could now be dealt with in a matter of days.
And what do I arrive to hear you tell me? That Jack Ewing is nowhere to be found.
Forget about Jack Ewing for the moment.
And tell me how you managed to move that, uh, schedule up.
You know, the details you couldn't trust to a telephone call.
A conference of oil ministers.
It was to be held in Kuwait.
But at the last minute they decided to include some sightseeing on the itinerary.
The weather is very nice in Venezuela this time of year.
And they'll certainly have something to see, won't they? I was able to arrange for our participation.
Actually, the ministers were quite pleased that Marinos Shipping is interested in the talks.
We have been avoiding their advances for some time.
With good reason.
And as far as the rest? The Marinos' yacht will be anchored in the harbor by the time the conference starts the day after tomorrow.
Excellent.
Excellent? Only if our guest of honor is there.
He will be there.
You've got my word.
Now I suggest you check in to your room and get some sleep.
Because tomorrow morning you'll be catching flight to Caracas to oversee the arrangements.
Grace, will you call him a bellman, please? My pleasure.
- You will be joining me on the flight? No.
There are some things I still have to do here first.
But I'll see you on the yacht, and I'll have Jack Ewing on my arm.
He didn't let anyone know where he was going? As far as we can tell, no one's heard from him for days.
We're really at a loss.
Surely they're trying to get blood from other sources? Yes.
Graison Research is doing all they can to help, as well as the blood banks.
But it all depends on when they find a source and if the donor's available.
- Sue Ellen.
- Yeah? We didn't know you were back.
How's Jamie doing? Well, she's worse than when I talked to you before.
Cliff's spending the night at the hospital.
Well, no one's gonna be of any use to anyone if we stay up all night.
It's 1 in the morning now.
Why don't we? Why don't we all go to bed and get a fresh start tomorrow? I think we ought to check with those horse breeders we've been doing business with lately.
See if Jack's been in touch with them.
You don't suppose he's on some side trip to check on that stud horse we were talking about, do you? I don't think he'd go without saying anything to us.
It's worth a call.
Look, is there anything at all that we can do? Yes, there is.
I think we should all go to the hospital tomorrow and donate blood.
Unfortunately, it won't do Jamie any good but it'll help replenish the blood bank's supply.
That poor girl.
Just when she and Cliff were finally so happy.
It's my fault.
What did you say? It's all my fault.
If I hadn't had that fight with Jack, he'd be here right now.
Well, that's not necessarily true, Jenna.
Yes, it is.
If I hadn't have sent him away, he'd be here to save his sister.
If she dies, I'm responsible.
You didn't cause that accident.
Oh, I didn't cause the accident, but I caused everything else, don't you see? Don't blame yourself, Jenna.
I deserve the blame.
- That's not true.
- Oh, yes, it is.
Nothing good happens to anyone who loves me.
This is no ordinary missing-person's report, Wyatt.
It's critical that we find him today.
But, J.
R.
, you know my authority only extends to the county line.
I'll put it on wire to rest of the state but I can't guarantee anybody's gonna pick it up as high-priority.
Wyatt, we're talking about my cousin Jamie.
Her life is at stake.
You understand that? If there's anything I can do for you, J.
R.
, you know I will.
I'll get on it personally.
I appreciate it.
What do you expect to find by looking out the window, J.
R? Certainly not Jack.
Certainly not.
The sheriff's out looking for him.
So is the police department.
They'll find him.
How did you manage that? Didn't you read the papers this morning? His sister's in the hospital.
Oh, yes, I did read an item about the accident.
Yes, that's too bad.
But his presence doesn't have anything to do one way or the other with her survival.
That's the irony of it.
Everybody else thinks it does.
Stop talking in riddles.
Jamie has a rare factor in her blood.
And the doctors, thinking that Jack comes from same parents expect him to have the same blood type.
Hmm.
And if he doesn't? They won't give anything away.
You and I know that Jack is not Jason Ewing's son.
And even if he and Jamie were true brother and sister there's a good chance that their blood wouldn't match.
In the mean time, there's hundreds of people looking for him which is good news for us.
But it's not gonna do Jamie any good.
Dr.
Lloyd Greg, LND.
Dr.
Greg, LND.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
Kenfield.
Doctor Any word yet? Nothing's changed in the last half hour, Mr.
Barnes.
We're still waiting for confirmation of that source in Tulsa.
- And my wife? - I just checked on her again.
Her condition hasn't changed.
Dr.
David Kenfield wanted in ER.
- I'm sorry.
I've gotta go.
Sure.
I'll let you know the minute I know anything.
Yeah, peace, quiet.
Nothing to worry you.
I can see why you could sure get used living out here.
Yep, first time I saw it, I knew I'd never find a good enough reason to leave.
I think it's gonna take me a while to figure out a real good reason to leave, myself.
Mm.
Your wife's a good cook.
Trouble back home? Yeah, you might say that.
Woman trouble? Well, got it written all over me, huh? It's not the first time I've seen it.
Let's just say I recognize the look.
You see, you would think that would help.
I mean, knowing I'm not the first guy in the world that's ever gone through this.
Yeah, well, it should help, heh, heh, but it never does.
Hell, men been going through same thing ever since Eve bit in that apple.
Ha, ha.
Doesn't make a dang bit of difference.
Well, if that was meant to be comforting, ha, ha, I'm not sure it worked.
Well, all that works is time.
Well, that, at least, is something I've got plenty of.
In fact, you know, I might wanna stay here longer than we talked about.
That's no problem.
I don't have anybody booked in for another month.
Yep, I could sure learn to like this.
I may even decide never to go back to Dallas.
What about your family? All I really got's my sister and, well, she's got her husband to take care of her.
So all I've got to worry about is how the fish are biting.
Hi.
Good news? Afraid not.
Source in Tulsa turned out negative.
I just want you to know that we're onto two other possible donors though.
- Where are they? - East Coast.
- How long before you're sure? - Couple hours.
All right, I know.
Let me see if I can speed things up.
- Thanks, Jerry.
Mm-hm.
- I don't feel like doing this anymore.
- Me either.
You know, Pam went into the office this morning.
She said she had to get some things done before she went back to the hospital.
She can't help Jamie by sitting around and waiting at the hospital.
Well, I know that.
I just can't believe how she's thrown herself into that job.
It means a lot to her, for Christopher.
It's more than that.
It means a lot to her for Bobby.
She feels she has an obligation to carry on in his memory.
- She told you that? - No, she'd never say that to me.
But it's what she's thinking.
It's the same reason she got involved with Matt Cantrell.
Matt? He's back in Dallas? I haven't seen him in so long.
What's he been up to? Well, he's got an emerald-mining venture in South America.
Bobby gave him startup money.
Now Pam wants to keep him going.
What's wrong with that? Well, on the face of it, nothing.
But she keeps getting deeper and deeper into things for all the wrong reasons.
For all the wrong reasons, as you see them.
Maybe you're not giving her enough credit.
Mark, she loves you.
Don't spend your time worrying about ghosts from the past.
I wish it were that easy.
That is the worst idea I have ever heard.
I'm not gonna have Ewing Oil money sunk in some mine somewhere in the jungles of Colombia.
I'm just not gonna have it.
You saw the appraisal on that emerald, and I showed you the geological report.
I don't understand why you won't commit to a long-term investment.
Because I'm not in the emerald business.
I'm in the oil business.
I know nothing about emeralds.
You know nothing about emeralds.
And most importantly, he knows nothing about emeralds.
I surveyed that mine myself.
I guarantee you there's a fortune to be made there.
Look, all I need is the manpower and the equipment to go in and get it out.
Well, in that case, you shouldn't have any difficulty in finding somebody to put up the funds for you.
Why should someone else reap the benefits of what Bobby began? Ugh, Pam, we have already reaped the benefits to the tune of a quarter of a million dollars' worth of emerald.
Lord knows where Matt here got ahold of that thing.
But that's five times our original investment.
That's good enough for me.
Well, it's not good enough for me.
Pam, you have as much money as Ewing Oil.
Why don't you back Cantrell's mine all by yourself? I think I will.
What? Now, wait a minute, Pam.
Don't go rushing into anything.
I appreciate it, but don't let J.
R.
Force you into something you don't wanna do.
No, I want to do this.
J.
R.
, I'll write you out a check for $300,000.
That'll cover Ewing Oil's original investment and the value of the emerald.
And then you and I don't have to discuss this ever again.
Well, all right.
Fine with me, but Are you sure? Yes, I'm sure.
Well, now, you see, everybody's happy.
I can't believe this.
I just can't believe it.
Come on.
Come on.
That's it.
That's it.
Whoa, did you see that, Clayton? She's really gonna be something, isn't she? You picked a beauty, all right.
Did you hear anything from Fair Ridge Farms yet? Well, I just got off the phone with them.
Jack hasn't called or stopped by there either.
Damn.
That was my best shot at it.
I wonder where in the world Jack's gone off to.
I don't know.
Ellie was talking to Sue Ellen.
They're trying to locate a possible donor in Boston.
Maybe that'll pan out.
I sure hope so.
Hey, here comes our new mares.
You know, I've been thinking.
What do you say we go up to that auction in Amarillo next week try to pick out 10 more? Well, that'd be rushing things.
I thought we were gonna start off slow and careful build up our stock, the right way.
Double our breeding, double our profits.
Well, that may be but I'm not sure it makes such sense in the long run, Clayton.
You're trying to tell me I don't know this business? Southern Cross was a very successful breeding ranch before you were born.
Okay.
Okay, we'll talk about it.
Take care of things, Evelyn.
I'll be out for a while.
Bye.
Didn't mean to take you away from what you were doing.
All I was doing was counting sweaters and then re-counting them again.
Well, maybe a breath of fresh air would be good for both of us, huh? I came into town to give blood and, well, then I went over to the Woodgrove School.
Looks like I'm gonna be joining their volunteer training program.
Heh.
That's wonderful.
You'd be great with those kids.
Thank you.
Why don't we get a cup of coffee or something? I really don't feel like it.
You know, Jenna, I think you're putting a lot more pressure on yourself than you deserve.
You don't know anything about it, Donna.
You have no way of knowing what I put Jack through.
It's because of me that Jack's not here for Jamie.
It's because that of me that Jamie's gonna die.
Stop it.
I have to I have to find Jack and bring him back here.
Look, honey, you can't do it all by yourself.
I have to.
I have to try.
Why do you bother to call me now? There's a layover in Miami.
I thought you might be able to give me a progress report.
We discussed all of that last night.
Last night there was still a key element missing: Jack Ewing.
Nicholas, why don't you do your job and let me do mine? The final arrangements will be in place within hours, Angelica.
I just don't want anything to go wrong.
Look, nothing will go wrong.
This is a KJCM newsbreak.
- Why don't you relax and have good flight? - For our top story this hour, we go live I'll see you tomorrow, okay? - To the Ewing Oil Company headquarters in Dallas.
We're here in the offices of J.
R.
Ewing to bring you a special message.
An appeal from Mr.
Ewing to all of you out there.
Mr.
Ewing? Thank you.
My cousin, Jamie Ewing Barnes, is in a hospital bed right now very near death because we have not been able to find a compatible blood donor for her.
Uh, in an effort to save her life we are looking for her brother, Jack Ewing.
Now, if anybody has seen this man, or knows where he is please contact me immediately.
I am personally offering a reward of $ 25,000 for anybody with information that will lead us to him.
In addition, I am offering a matching $ 25,000 reward to anyone who has AB-negative-type blood with the same factors that Jamie has and, of course, who is willing to donate it.
Uh, it's a very simple procedure.
Just go to your, uh, local hospital or clinic and they will draw blood and test it to see if you have the same type.
Uh, this is very important.
It won't take a lot of time, and it just might save a life.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
- And now, back to our KJCM newsroom.
Thank you, Melanie.
In other local news, a fire has caused major damages to half a dozen businesses Hello? Mandy, did you just see J.
R.
On television? I sure did.
Wasn't it incredible? Unbelievable.
That's more like it.
I wanna know what the hell Jack means to J.
R that he's willing to shell out $25,000 to get him back here.
Well, he's trying to get Jack back for Jamie's sake.
Yeah, I'd like to think he is, but I happen to know him better than that.
There's something else going on here.
J.
R.
Needs Jack for something.
- Needs him for what? - I don't know.
But that's what you're gonna find out for me.
Hello, Joe.
Afternoon, Miss Ellie.
Hello, Ray.
- Going out for a ride? - Oh, I thought I would for an hour or so.
It's so hard sitting around the house waiting for phone to ring.
- You haven't heard from Jack yet, huh? - No, nothing yet.
I'd sure like to know what happened to him.
Thank you, Eddie.
- Help you up, Miss Ellie? - No, that's all right, thanks.
- You wanna join me? - No, I've got a lot of work to do today.
I, uh, hope you don't think I'm interfering, Miss Ellie but I was wondering if you've noticed anything wrong with Clayton the past couple of days.
Why do you ask? Well, it seems like something's bothering him.
He's just not acting, well, like himself, you know? I know.
You can tell me, Miss Ellie.
Clayton is, uh, having some financial problems.
Clayton? That just doesn't seem possible.
I wouldn't have thought so myself.
But it seems that he's trying to sell two of his smaller companies in order to save the refinery.
What happened? What did he say? He didn't say anything to me.
He doesn't even know that I'm aware of it.
And, Ray, he must never know.
All right.
You can count on me.
Anything I can do? I don't know what.
I've just been trying to figure out something that I could do.
- And you don't wanna ask him? - No.
I don't think I should do that.
But I, uh I have been toying with the idea of buying those two companies myself.
Oh, Miss Ellie, you can't be serious.
You know how much money that would involve? Money isn't the issue, Ray, Clayton is.
All right, what if he finds out? What would that do to him? He's not going to find out.
All right, I gotta tell you the truth.
I don't think it's the right thing to do.
But if there's anything I can do to help you just let me know.
I will.
Clayton's a very lucky man.
Jamie's family.
You can't put a price on that.
Twenty-five thousand dollars? You really wanna find Jack, don't you? Look, her life is in danger.
I know, I just thought maybe there was another reason you needed Jack.
Jamie's family.
It's simple as that.
I'd do anything to save her life.
I'm sorry, it just came as such a surprise to see you on television.
Well, I'm full of surprises.
You ought to know that by now.
Well, I hope Jack shows up soon.
Not half as much as I do.
Am I gonna see you later? I don't think I'm gonna manage it tonight.
I'll probably have to go back to the hospital.
Well, I'll be here.
You can come over anytime.
You know, it doesn't matter how late.
I'll keep in touch.
Goodbye.
What's the matter, Daddy? Don't you wanna play anymore? Sure.
Uh We could play something else if you want.
No, it's fine.
You always make me tell you when something's the matter.
Come here.
Come here.
You know, sometimes, son you have a special friend that disappoints you and let's you down.
You know what I mean? Is that why you're sad? Did someone let you down? Yeah.
That's why I'm sad.
So then, that person's not your friend anymore, right? Well, first you have to give that person a second chance.
And did you? Yes, I did.
So then what do you do? You make sure that person never lets you down again.
You understand that? - Hi, honey.
- Ah, fancy meeting you here.
- What do you got there? - Tell you what you pour me a cup of that coffee, and I'll let you see.
- I finally did it.
- What? I signed up for the, uh, volunteer program at Woodgrove.
Well, you've been thinking about that for long time.
Yeah.
I'm glad you finally decided to go for it.
What are they gonna have you doing? Well, gosh, probably a little bit of everything till they find out where I fit best.
Wait.
Okay, now, wait a minute.
This one I learned tonight.
- What is it? - "I love you"? I love you.
Heh.
You're gonna be just great with the kids, honey.
That's what Jenna said.
I'm glad you both have so much faith in me.
- When did you talk to Jenna? - This morning.
She didn't come down for breakfast so I stopped by the boutique to see how she was doing.
And how is she? She's not doing good.
I'm really worried about her.
I think the whole family is worried about her after last night.
Breaking up with Jack just sent her into some kind of a tailspin.
I had no idea that they were that involved with each other.
I told Jack that I didn't think that she was ready.
I don't think anybody told Jenna she wasn't ready.
Did Mr.
Ewing say when he's coming back? Uh, no, he didn't, um He just wants me to send him few of his things.
All right, I'll be in my apartment if you need anything else.
Thank you.
How do you know that's where he is? Because he told me he used to go there when he needed time alone.
Well, Lake Shenandoah's over a six-hour drive from here.
I'll call the New Mexico officials.
- Did Jack say when he was there last? Um, a few years ago, I think.
Well, it's a long shot.
We can't overlook anything.
I know that, Miss Ellie.
All I'm saying is, we shouldn't get our hopes up on a hunch.
It's not a hunch.
Sheriff, you find something? Well, Jenna thinks she might know where Jack is, Lake Shenandoah.
He call? - No.
It's a feeling she's got.
The sheriff here's gonna call the New Mexico State Police.
Ray, why don't you go on your own? Take the Ewing jet, save yourself some time.
I'm going too.
- I'll call you as soon we know something.
Okay.
I'll have the authorities waiting for you when you get there.
Right.
Yeah, uh, this is Sheriff Mansfield.
Code Blue, ER.
Code Blue, ER.
Nurse Diezer, 4323.
Nurse Diezer, 4323.
I bought whatever they had.
Tsk, what are they doing in there, huh? I can't stand this anymore.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Here's the lab report.
Ah, I was afraid of this.
I'll go tell her husband.
Tell me what? What? What is it? Your wife's kidneys are failing, Mr.
Barnes, due to the hemolytic shock.
What does that mean? As I told you before the loss of kidney function could trigger the shutdown of other organs.
We've got to find the right blood donor soon.
She's slipping away.
Must be 50 people out there waiting to have their blood tested.
Well, that's terrific.
I know we'll find somebody.
Listen, shouldn't we have heard about? From Ray and Jenna by now? - They haven't been gone long enough? - No.
Miss Ellie said that Ray would call us the minute they find Jack.
- Or don't.
- Cliff, you can't think like that.
Now, come on, you gotta hang on.
Jamie needs you.
Sue Ellen.
Matt? Ha, ha.
What are you doing here? Oh I came to give blood.
Pam said the whole family was, so I thought maybe I could help.
Oh, that's very sweet of you.
- It's so good to see you.
- You too.
You know, you're just as beautiful as I remembered.
Matt, Mark Graison.
Mark.
It's good to meet you.
Pam talked a lot about you.
Uh, Matt, I'd like you to meet Cliff Barnes.
- Cliff? Hmm? Matt Cantrell's an old friend of the family.
Hi.
- He's here to give blood.
I was very sorry to hear about your wife.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Is Pam here? No, she wanted to go home to Christopher.
He's got a cold.
He must be quite a kid.
I can't wait to meet him.
Well, we'll have to have you out.
Hey, did Pam get a chance to tell you about her deciding to go in on the emerald mine with me? You mean, take up where Bobby left off? It was very generous of her.
I'll do my best not to let her down.
Uh, Matt, come with me.
I'll show you where the blood bank is.
It's good to meet you, Mark.
- I'll see you again.
- Sure thing.
Jack? Jack! What? Who? - Jack.
Ray.
Try not to get upset, but your sister's had an accident.
What kind of an accident? What happened? When? At one of the plants yesterday.
She's in the hospital.
Doctors haven't been able to match her blood.
They're hoping that you have same type.
- Oh, my God.
I've gotta get to her.
- I got your keys, here's your jacket.
- She's gonna be all right - We have a police escort for you.
Okay, let's go, let's go.
Hey, Matt.
You got a minute? Mark, hi.
You know, I, uh I apologize for what I said in there.
I shouldn't have blurted out about emerald mine like that.
I should've let Pam tell you herself.
Don't worry about it.
I couldn't believe it when she said she'd be my partner.
- How exactly did that happen? - I'm not real sure.
The more J.
R.
Put me down, the more Pam rose to my defense.
And Bobby was right.
She's one in a million.
- You gonna stay in Dallas long? - Well, not long now.
Now that I got financing I need, I can take care of a couple matters in town then head on back down to Colombia.
You really think you're gonna hit pay dirt with this thing? Yes, I do.
I wouldn't be taking her money if I didn't believe it.
You have some kind of a timetable on the mine? Could this turn into a bottomless pit for Pam's money? Naturally I'd like to strike major vein as soon as we start digging again but these things do have a way of taking time.
- You're not answering my question.
- I'm not gonna let her throw away money.
That's exactly what I was asking.
Look, I've gotta get back to the office.
Nice talking to you.
Yeah.
Mr.
Barnes? They found your wife's brother.
He's on his way.
Jamie, baby, they found Jack.
He's coming.
Just hang on.
Can you do that? Just hang on.
Jack, we've been looking all over for you, boy.
Excuse me, Mr.
Ewing.
How'd you feel when they said your sister was in critical condition? - How do you think it felt? - Excuse me.
Mr.
Ewing, come with me.
Did you know that there was a reward for information about you? Excuse me, are you a member of the family? - Why don't you and your crew just get lost? - I'm just doing my job, pal.
Hell of a good job.
Cool it.
- Excuse me.
We still running? Good, keep it going.
Excuse me, Mr.
Ewing.
This is J.
R.
Ewing, the man that put up reward.
Mr.
Ewing, tell us, who is going to get that $25,000, sir? Oh, yeah, well first we have to ascertain who is responsible for finding Jack and, uh Mr.
Ewing, your blood, do you know if you have AB-negative? Dr.
Liu, ICU.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Jenna, Jenna, wait.
You're not leaving, are you? Why shouldn't I? Well, we're not even sure if Jack's blood sample matches yet.
I've done all I can.
I helped you find Jack.
What more does anyone want? Well, we've still got a long night here at the hospital, uh I know it would mean a lot to Jack if you'd stay.
Why doesn't anyone understand? Jack and I don't mean anything to each other.
Nothing.
My staying here won't do him any good or me.
You're wrong.
Don't do this to yourself.
Don't cut yourself off from everyone.
Jack cares about you.
Can't you just be here for him? No.
I wanna go home to Charlie.
Charlie is just fine.
Why are you doing this? What's wrong? You're not acting like the Jenna I used to know.
You're right.
I'm not.
And I never will be again.
Because nothing is ever gonna be the same as it was again.
It's Bobby.
That's what this is all about.
Jenna Bobby was my brother.
I miss him as much as you do.
It hurts sometimes.
But life has to go on.
Do you think Bobby would've wanted it any other way? Just leave me alone.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
Well, he's in getting his blood analyzed.
It's a damn shame it's not gonna do any good.
Yes.
You'll keep me informed what happens, won't you? Of course I will.
Uh, here comes Jack.
I'll call you later.
I'll be waiting.
Jack's at the hospital.
He's having his blood typed.
Time'll tell, won't it? - Say, Jack.
J.
R.
I wanna thank you for offering that reward to find me.
- That was very generous of you.
- Well, that's what families are for.
- What'd they tell you in there? - Nothing.
They're checking the antigen match.
You know, there is a possibility that your blood types won't match.
I want you to be prepared for that.
I know.
I understand.
And we're looking for other donors.
I'm sure we're gonna find somebody.
Excuse me, J.
R.
, I wanna speak to Cliff for a minute.
- Yeah, yeah, of course.
Hi.
- Sure are glad you got here.
- Yeah, we sure are, bud.
- Say, Ray, you did a hell of a job, buddy.
Miss Ellie.
How you doing? Clayton.
Hey.
She means everything to me.
I never should've let her go alone.
It's not your fault, Cliff.
Jamie is a strong girl.
She's gonna pull through this.
We have to believe that.
Have you seen her? They let me look in for a minute.
She didn't know I was there.
She's been like that ever since they brought her in.
Doctor? The immediate crisis is over.
Jack's blood's a perfect match.
You have no way of knowing what I put Jack through.
It's because of me that Jack's not here for Jamie.
It's because of me that Jamie's gonna die.
If anybody has seen this man, I am personally offering $25,000 for anybody with information that will lead us to him.
There's hundreds of people looking for him, which is good news for us but it's not gonna do Jamie any good.
I'll go tell her husband.
Tell me what? Coleman, get this to the lab, stat.
Yes, doctor.
- How is she? - She's stabilized for the moment.
We're into a high-risk situation.
The lab, however, has completed the antigen analysis of her blood.
So we can call the blood banks in on this.
Isn't there something the research center can do? Well, we can certainly help.
I'll call Dr.
Kenderson.
I'll have him put our computer facilities at your disposal.
Our data files aren't complete but maybe if we're lucky, we can find a match.
Luck is what we're gonna need, Mr.
Graison.
Is there any word yet on your wife's brother? No, uh-uh, no.
We've left messages for him everywhere we can think of.
He's bound to show up soon.
I certainly hope you're right.
Because the odds are in favor that his blood will match Mrs.
Barnes' better than anyone else's that we're likely to locate in the time we have left.
Yeah.
What do you mean, in the time we have left? If we don't find a compatible donor for your wife she's in grave danger of losing kidney function.
And that may trigger the shutdown of the other organs.
What are you telling me, that she could die? The next 24 hours are gonna be critical.
Now, we're gonna do everything we can.
But if we don't find the blood, if we don't find her brother we may not be able to save her life.
Are you sure you feel all right? Mom, I'm fine.
I'm just a little tired.
Stop worrying about me.
You know, I am your mother.
I'm supposed to worry about you.
What are you reading? Catcher in the Rye? It's okay, isn't it? Hmm, I guess so.
It's, um, practically a classic.
Dana lent it to me.
Mom, you know how I told you that Dana and Elizabeth were going to Whitley Academy? Mm-hm.
Well, can I go too? - Absolutely not.
- Why not? Because you're too young to go off to boarding school, that's why.
Mom, I'd be home on the weekends, and I'd call you every day.
Plus, I'd be getting a great education.
You're already getting a great education.
And I don't want you living away from me.
I'm afraid, young lady, that's that.
Can't we even talk about it? We just did.
If Bobby were here, he would let me go.
He would at least listen to me.
You know, I have listened to you.
The answer is still no.
Thanks for nothing.
You better watch your tone of voice when you talk to me, young lady.
One hour and lights are out.
You're awfully quiet tonight.
What are you thinking? Oh, something happened at the office this morning.
You wanna talk about it? No, darling, I don't wanna bother you.
It's no bother.
If something's troubling you, I wanna hear it.
Well, this morning, one of my best engineers just up and quit.
Went to work for Westar.
Why'd he do that? Well, he said he felt he wasn't getting a fair deal at Ewing.
Westar made him a better offer.
Oh, God, I thought we trusted each other.
And then he just leaves and goes to work for a rival company.
Well, that sort of thing happens in business all the time, doesn't it? Yeah, maybe.
But I'm a reasonable man.
We could've worked something out.
He never even told me what his problem was.
He never talked to you about it before today? Gave you a chance to improve on Westar's offer? No.
Heh, I'm not a mind reader.
How was I to know he was unhappy? How do you know something like that unless somebody comes and tells you? J.
R.
, what would you say if? Pardon me, Mr.
Ewing.
You wanted to make a call at 9:00.
All right, thanks.
That, um, Angelica wanted me to call her at 9.
Uh, go ahead.
What were you saying? Angelica? Yeah.
She can wait.
Go on.
It was nothing.
Really.
I have been traveling You should've taken the Concorde.
Look, it's almost 6:00 in the morning, my time, and I have no patience for this.
Now, what we thought we would have to wait months to accomplish could now be dealt with in a matter of days.
And what do I arrive to hear you tell me? That Jack Ewing is nowhere to be found.
Forget about Jack Ewing for the moment.
And tell me how you managed to move that, uh, schedule up.
You know, the details you couldn't trust to a telephone call.
A conference of oil ministers.
It was to be held in Kuwait.
But at the last minute they decided to include some sightseeing on the itinerary.
The weather is very nice in Venezuela this time of year.
And they'll certainly have something to see, won't they? I was able to arrange for our participation.
Actually, the ministers were quite pleased that Marinos Shipping is interested in the talks.
We have been avoiding their advances for some time.
With good reason.
And as far as the rest? The Marinos' yacht will be anchored in the harbor by the time the conference starts the day after tomorrow.
Excellent.
Excellent? Only if our guest of honor is there.
He will be there.
You've got my word.
Now I suggest you check in to your room and get some sleep.
Because tomorrow morning you'll be catching flight to Caracas to oversee the arrangements.
Grace, will you call him a bellman, please? My pleasure.
- You will be joining me on the flight? No.
There are some things I still have to do here first.
But I'll see you on the yacht, and I'll have Jack Ewing on my arm.
He didn't let anyone know where he was going? As far as we can tell, no one's heard from him for days.
We're really at a loss.
Surely they're trying to get blood from other sources? Yes.
Graison Research is doing all they can to help, as well as the blood banks.
But it all depends on when they find a source and if the donor's available.
- Sue Ellen.
- Yeah? We didn't know you were back.
How's Jamie doing? Well, she's worse than when I talked to you before.
Cliff's spending the night at the hospital.
Well, no one's gonna be of any use to anyone if we stay up all night.
It's 1 in the morning now.
Why don't we? Why don't we all go to bed and get a fresh start tomorrow? I think we ought to check with those horse breeders we've been doing business with lately.
See if Jack's been in touch with them.
You don't suppose he's on some side trip to check on that stud horse we were talking about, do you? I don't think he'd go without saying anything to us.
It's worth a call.
Look, is there anything at all that we can do? Yes, there is.
I think we should all go to the hospital tomorrow and donate blood.
Unfortunately, it won't do Jamie any good but it'll help replenish the blood bank's supply.
That poor girl.
Just when she and Cliff were finally so happy.
It's my fault.
What did you say? It's all my fault.
If I hadn't had that fight with Jack, he'd be here right now.
Well, that's not necessarily true, Jenna.
Yes, it is.
If I hadn't have sent him away, he'd be here to save his sister.
If she dies, I'm responsible.
You didn't cause that accident.
Oh, I didn't cause the accident, but I caused everything else, don't you see? Don't blame yourself, Jenna.
I deserve the blame.
- That's not true.
- Oh, yes, it is.
Nothing good happens to anyone who loves me.
This is no ordinary missing-person's report, Wyatt.
It's critical that we find him today.
But, J.
R.
, you know my authority only extends to the county line.
I'll put it on wire to rest of the state but I can't guarantee anybody's gonna pick it up as high-priority.
Wyatt, we're talking about my cousin Jamie.
Her life is at stake.
You understand that? If there's anything I can do for you, J.
R.
, you know I will.
I'll get on it personally.
I appreciate it.
What do you expect to find by looking out the window, J.
R? Certainly not Jack.
Certainly not.
The sheriff's out looking for him.
So is the police department.
They'll find him.
How did you manage that? Didn't you read the papers this morning? His sister's in the hospital.
Oh, yes, I did read an item about the accident.
Yes, that's too bad.
But his presence doesn't have anything to do one way or the other with her survival.
That's the irony of it.
Everybody else thinks it does.
Stop talking in riddles.
Jamie has a rare factor in her blood.
And the doctors, thinking that Jack comes from same parents expect him to have the same blood type.
Hmm.
And if he doesn't? They won't give anything away.
You and I know that Jack is not Jason Ewing's son.
And even if he and Jamie were true brother and sister there's a good chance that their blood wouldn't match.
In the mean time, there's hundreds of people looking for him which is good news for us.
But it's not gonna do Jamie any good.
Dr.
Lloyd Greg, LND.
Dr.
Greg, LND.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
Kenfield.
Doctor Any word yet? Nothing's changed in the last half hour, Mr.
Barnes.
We're still waiting for confirmation of that source in Tulsa.
- And my wife? - I just checked on her again.
Her condition hasn't changed.
Dr.
David Kenfield wanted in ER.
- I'm sorry.
I've gotta go.
Sure.
I'll let you know the minute I know anything.
Yeah, peace, quiet.
Nothing to worry you.
I can see why you could sure get used living out here.
Yep, first time I saw it, I knew I'd never find a good enough reason to leave.
I think it's gonna take me a while to figure out a real good reason to leave, myself.
Mm.
Your wife's a good cook.
Trouble back home? Yeah, you might say that.
Woman trouble? Well, got it written all over me, huh? It's not the first time I've seen it.
Let's just say I recognize the look.
You see, you would think that would help.
I mean, knowing I'm not the first guy in the world that's ever gone through this.
Yeah, well, it should help, heh, heh, but it never does.
Hell, men been going through same thing ever since Eve bit in that apple.
Ha, ha.
Doesn't make a dang bit of difference.
Well, if that was meant to be comforting, ha, ha, I'm not sure it worked.
Well, all that works is time.
Well, that, at least, is something I've got plenty of.
In fact, you know, I might wanna stay here longer than we talked about.
That's no problem.
I don't have anybody booked in for another month.
Yep, I could sure learn to like this.
I may even decide never to go back to Dallas.
What about your family? All I really got's my sister and, well, she's got her husband to take care of her.
So all I've got to worry about is how the fish are biting.
Hi.
Good news? Afraid not.
Source in Tulsa turned out negative.
I just want you to know that we're onto two other possible donors though.
- Where are they? - East Coast.
- How long before you're sure? - Couple hours.
All right, I know.
Let me see if I can speed things up.
- Thanks, Jerry.
Mm-hm.
- I don't feel like doing this anymore.
- Me either.
You know, Pam went into the office this morning.
She said she had to get some things done before she went back to the hospital.
She can't help Jamie by sitting around and waiting at the hospital.
Well, I know that.
I just can't believe how she's thrown herself into that job.
It means a lot to her, for Christopher.
It's more than that.
It means a lot to her for Bobby.
She feels she has an obligation to carry on in his memory.
- She told you that? - No, she'd never say that to me.
But it's what she's thinking.
It's the same reason she got involved with Matt Cantrell.
Matt? He's back in Dallas? I haven't seen him in so long.
What's he been up to? Well, he's got an emerald-mining venture in South America.
Bobby gave him startup money.
Now Pam wants to keep him going.
What's wrong with that? Well, on the face of it, nothing.
But she keeps getting deeper and deeper into things for all the wrong reasons.
For all the wrong reasons, as you see them.
Maybe you're not giving her enough credit.
Mark, she loves you.
Don't spend your time worrying about ghosts from the past.
I wish it were that easy.
That is the worst idea I have ever heard.
I'm not gonna have Ewing Oil money sunk in some mine somewhere in the jungles of Colombia.
I'm just not gonna have it.
You saw the appraisal on that emerald, and I showed you the geological report.
I don't understand why you won't commit to a long-term investment.
Because I'm not in the emerald business.
I'm in the oil business.
I know nothing about emeralds.
You know nothing about emeralds.
And most importantly, he knows nothing about emeralds.
I surveyed that mine myself.
I guarantee you there's a fortune to be made there.
Look, all I need is the manpower and the equipment to go in and get it out.
Well, in that case, you shouldn't have any difficulty in finding somebody to put up the funds for you.
Why should someone else reap the benefits of what Bobby began? Ugh, Pam, we have already reaped the benefits to the tune of a quarter of a million dollars' worth of emerald.
Lord knows where Matt here got ahold of that thing.
But that's five times our original investment.
That's good enough for me.
Well, it's not good enough for me.
Pam, you have as much money as Ewing Oil.
Why don't you back Cantrell's mine all by yourself? I think I will.
What? Now, wait a minute, Pam.
Don't go rushing into anything.
I appreciate it, but don't let J.
R.
Force you into something you don't wanna do.
No, I want to do this.
J.
R.
, I'll write you out a check for $300,000.
That'll cover Ewing Oil's original investment and the value of the emerald.
And then you and I don't have to discuss this ever again.
Well, all right.
Fine with me, but Are you sure? Yes, I'm sure.
Well, now, you see, everybody's happy.
I can't believe this.
I just can't believe it.
Come on.
Come on.
That's it.
That's it.
Whoa, did you see that, Clayton? She's really gonna be something, isn't she? You picked a beauty, all right.
Did you hear anything from Fair Ridge Farms yet? Well, I just got off the phone with them.
Jack hasn't called or stopped by there either.
Damn.
That was my best shot at it.
I wonder where in the world Jack's gone off to.
I don't know.
Ellie was talking to Sue Ellen.
They're trying to locate a possible donor in Boston.
Maybe that'll pan out.
I sure hope so.
Hey, here comes our new mares.
You know, I've been thinking.
What do you say we go up to that auction in Amarillo next week try to pick out 10 more? Well, that'd be rushing things.
I thought we were gonna start off slow and careful build up our stock, the right way.
Double our breeding, double our profits.
Well, that may be but I'm not sure it makes such sense in the long run, Clayton.
You're trying to tell me I don't know this business? Southern Cross was a very successful breeding ranch before you were born.
Okay.
Okay, we'll talk about it.
Take care of things, Evelyn.
I'll be out for a while.
Bye.
Didn't mean to take you away from what you were doing.
All I was doing was counting sweaters and then re-counting them again.
Well, maybe a breath of fresh air would be good for both of us, huh? I came into town to give blood and, well, then I went over to the Woodgrove School.
Looks like I'm gonna be joining their volunteer training program.
Heh.
That's wonderful.
You'd be great with those kids.
Thank you.
Why don't we get a cup of coffee or something? I really don't feel like it.
You know, Jenna, I think you're putting a lot more pressure on yourself than you deserve.
You don't know anything about it, Donna.
You have no way of knowing what I put Jack through.
It's because of me that Jack's not here for Jamie.
It's because that of me that Jamie's gonna die.
Stop it.
I have to I have to find Jack and bring him back here.
Look, honey, you can't do it all by yourself.
I have to.
I have to try.
Why do you bother to call me now? There's a layover in Miami.
I thought you might be able to give me a progress report.
We discussed all of that last night.
Last night there was still a key element missing: Jack Ewing.
Nicholas, why don't you do your job and let me do mine? The final arrangements will be in place within hours, Angelica.
I just don't want anything to go wrong.
Look, nothing will go wrong.
This is a KJCM newsbreak.
- Why don't you relax and have good flight? - For our top story this hour, we go live I'll see you tomorrow, okay? - To the Ewing Oil Company headquarters in Dallas.
We're here in the offices of J.
R.
Ewing to bring you a special message.
An appeal from Mr.
Ewing to all of you out there.
Mr.
Ewing? Thank you.
My cousin, Jamie Ewing Barnes, is in a hospital bed right now very near death because we have not been able to find a compatible blood donor for her.
Uh, in an effort to save her life we are looking for her brother, Jack Ewing.
Now, if anybody has seen this man, or knows where he is please contact me immediately.
I am personally offering a reward of $ 25,000 for anybody with information that will lead us to him.
In addition, I am offering a matching $ 25,000 reward to anyone who has AB-negative-type blood with the same factors that Jamie has and, of course, who is willing to donate it.
Uh, it's a very simple procedure.
Just go to your, uh, local hospital or clinic and they will draw blood and test it to see if you have the same type.
Uh, this is very important.
It won't take a lot of time, and it just might save a life.
- Thank you.
- Thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
- And now, back to our KJCM newsroom.
Thank you, Melanie.
In other local news, a fire has caused major damages to half a dozen businesses Hello? Mandy, did you just see J.
R.
On television? I sure did.
Wasn't it incredible? Unbelievable.
That's more like it.
I wanna know what the hell Jack means to J.
R that he's willing to shell out $25,000 to get him back here.
Well, he's trying to get Jack back for Jamie's sake.
Yeah, I'd like to think he is, but I happen to know him better than that.
There's something else going on here.
J.
R.
Needs Jack for something.
- Needs him for what? - I don't know.
But that's what you're gonna find out for me.
Hello, Joe.
Afternoon, Miss Ellie.
Hello, Ray.
- Going out for a ride? - Oh, I thought I would for an hour or so.
It's so hard sitting around the house waiting for phone to ring.
- You haven't heard from Jack yet, huh? - No, nothing yet.
I'd sure like to know what happened to him.
Thank you, Eddie.
- Help you up, Miss Ellie? - No, that's all right, thanks.
- You wanna join me? - No, I've got a lot of work to do today.
I, uh, hope you don't think I'm interfering, Miss Ellie but I was wondering if you've noticed anything wrong with Clayton the past couple of days.
Why do you ask? Well, it seems like something's bothering him.
He's just not acting, well, like himself, you know? I know.
You can tell me, Miss Ellie.
Clayton is, uh, having some financial problems.
Clayton? That just doesn't seem possible.
I wouldn't have thought so myself.
But it seems that he's trying to sell two of his smaller companies in order to save the refinery.
What happened? What did he say? He didn't say anything to me.
He doesn't even know that I'm aware of it.
And, Ray, he must never know.
All right.
You can count on me.
Anything I can do? I don't know what.
I've just been trying to figure out something that I could do.
- And you don't wanna ask him? - No.
I don't think I should do that.
But I, uh I have been toying with the idea of buying those two companies myself.
Oh, Miss Ellie, you can't be serious.
You know how much money that would involve? Money isn't the issue, Ray, Clayton is.
All right, what if he finds out? What would that do to him? He's not going to find out.
All right, I gotta tell you the truth.
I don't think it's the right thing to do.
But if there's anything I can do to help you just let me know.
I will.
Clayton's a very lucky man.
Jamie's family.
You can't put a price on that.
Twenty-five thousand dollars? You really wanna find Jack, don't you? Look, her life is in danger.
I know, I just thought maybe there was another reason you needed Jack.
Jamie's family.
It's simple as that.
I'd do anything to save her life.
I'm sorry, it just came as such a surprise to see you on television.
Well, I'm full of surprises.
You ought to know that by now.
Well, I hope Jack shows up soon.
Not half as much as I do.
Am I gonna see you later? I don't think I'm gonna manage it tonight.
I'll probably have to go back to the hospital.
Well, I'll be here.
You can come over anytime.
You know, it doesn't matter how late.
I'll keep in touch.
Goodbye.
What's the matter, Daddy? Don't you wanna play anymore? Sure.
Uh We could play something else if you want.
No, it's fine.
You always make me tell you when something's the matter.
Come here.
Come here.
You know, sometimes, son you have a special friend that disappoints you and let's you down.
You know what I mean? Is that why you're sad? Did someone let you down? Yeah.
That's why I'm sad.
So then, that person's not your friend anymore, right? Well, first you have to give that person a second chance.
And did you? Yes, I did.
So then what do you do? You make sure that person never lets you down again.
You understand that? - Hi, honey.
- Ah, fancy meeting you here.
- What do you got there? - Tell you what you pour me a cup of that coffee, and I'll let you see.
- I finally did it.
- What? I signed up for the, uh, volunteer program at Woodgrove.
Well, you've been thinking about that for long time.
Yeah.
I'm glad you finally decided to go for it.
What are they gonna have you doing? Well, gosh, probably a little bit of everything till they find out where I fit best.
Wait.
Okay, now, wait a minute.
This one I learned tonight.
- What is it? - "I love you"? I love you.
Heh.
You're gonna be just great with the kids, honey.
That's what Jenna said.
I'm glad you both have so much faith in me.
- When did you talk to Jenna? - This morning.
She didn't come down for breakfast so I stopped by the boutique to see how she was doing.
And how is she? She's not doing good.
I'm really worried about her.
I think the whole family is worried about her after last night.
Breaking up with Jack just sent her into some kind of a tailspin.
I had no idea that they were that involved with each other.
I told Jack that I didn't think that she was ready.
I don't think anybody told Jenna she wasn't ready.
Did Mr.
Ewing say when he's coming back? Uh, no, he didn't, um He just wants me to send him few of his things.
All right, I'll be in my apartment if you need anything else.
Thank you.
How do you know that's where he is? Because he told me he used to go there when he needed time alone.
Well, Lake Shenandoah's over a six-hour drive from here.
I'll call the New Mexico officials.
- Did Jack say when he was there last? Um, a few years ago, I think.
Well, it's a long shot.
We can't overlook anything.
I know that, Miss Ellie.
All I'm saying is, we shouldn't get our hopes up on a hunch.
It's not a hunch.
Sheriff, you find something? Well, Jenna thinks she might know where Jack is, Lake Shenandoah.
He call? - No.
It's a feeling she's got.
The sheriff here's gonna call the New Mexico State Police.
Ray, why don't you go on your own? Take the Ewing jet, save yourself some time.
I'm going too.
- I'll call you as soon we know something.
Okay.
I'll have the authorities waiting for you when you get there.
Right.
Yeah, uh, this is Sheriff Mansfield.
Code Blue, ER.
Code Blue, ER.
Nurse Diezer, 4323.
Nurse Diezer, 4323.
I bought whatever they had.
Tsk, what are they doing in there, huh? I can't stand this anymore.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Here's the lab report.
Ah, I was afraid of this.
I'll go tell her husband.
Tell me what? What? What is it? Your wife's kidneys are failing, Mr.
Barnes, due to the hemolytic shock.
What does that mean? As I told you before the loss of kidney function could trigger the shutdown of other organs.
We've got to find the right blood donor soon.
She's slipping away.
Must be 50 people out there waiting to have their blood tested.
Well, that's terrific.
I know we'll find somebody.
Listen, shouldn't we have heard about? From Ray and Jenna by now? - They haven't been gone long enough? - No.
Miss Ellie said that Ray would call us the minute they find Jack.
- Or don't.
- Cliff, you can't think like that.
Now, come on, you gotta hang on.
Jamie needs you.
Sue Ellen.
Matt? Ha, ha.
What are you doing here? Oh I came to give blood.
Pam said the whole family was, so I thought maybe I could help.
Oh, that's very sweet of you.
- It's so good to see you.
- You too.
You know, you're just as beautiful as I remembered.
Matt, Mark Graison.
Mark.
It's good to meet you.
Pam talked a lot about you.
Uh, Matt, I'd like you to meet Cliff Barnes.
- Cliff? Hmm? Matt Cantrell's an old friend of the family.
Hi.
- He's here to give blood.
I was very sorry to hear about your wife.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Is Pam here? No, she wanted to go home to Christopher.
He's got a cold.
He must be quite a kid.
I can't wait to meet him.
Well, we'll have to have you out.
Hey, did Pam get a chance to tell you about her deciding to go in on the emerald mine with me? You mean, take up where Bobby left off? It was very generous of her.
I'll do my best not to let her down.
Uh, Matt, come with me.
I'll show you where the blood bank is.
It's good to meet you, Mark.
- I'll see you again.
- Sure thing.
Jack? Jack! What? Who? - Jack.
Ray.
Try not to get upset, but your sister's had an accident.
What kind of an accident? What happened? When? At one of the plants yesterday.
She's in the hospital.
Doctors haven't been able to match her blood.
They're hoping that you have same type.
- Oh, my God.
I've gotta get to her.
- I got your keys, here's your jacket.
- She's gonna be all right - We have a police escort for you.
Okay, let's go, let's go.
Hey, Matt.
You got a minute? Mark, hi.
You know, I, uh I apologize for what I said in there.
I shouldn't have blurted out about emerald mine like that.
I should've let Pam tell you herself.
Don't worry about it.
I couldn't believe it when she said she'd be my partner.
- How exactly did that happen? - I'm not real sure.
The more J.
R.
Put me down, the more Pam rose to my defense.
And Bobby was right.
She's one in a million.
- You gonna stay in Dallas long? - Well, not long now.
Now that I got financing I need, I can take care of a couple matters in town then head on back down to Colombia.
You really think you're gonna hit pay dirt with this thing? Yes, I do.
I wouldn't be taking her money if I didn't believe it.
You have some kind of a timetable on the mine? Could this turn into a bottomless pit for Pam's money? Naturally I'd like to strike major vein as soon as we start digging again but these things do have a way of taking time.
- You're not answering my question.
- I'm not gonna let her throw away money.
That's exactly what I was asking.
Look, I've gotta get back to the office.
Nice talking to you.
Yeah.
Mr.
Barnes? They found your wife's brother.
He's on his way.
Jamie, baby, they found Jack.
He's coming.
Just hang on.
Can you do that? Just hang on.
Jack, we've been looking all over for you, boy.
Excuse me, Mr.
Ewing.
How'd you feel when they said your sister was in critical condition? - How do you think it felt? - Excuse me.
Mr.
Ewing, come with me.
Did you know that there was a reward for information about you? Excuse me, are you a member of the family? - Why don't you and your crew just get lost? - I'm just doing my job, pal.
Hell of a good job.
Cool it.
- Excuse me.
We still running? Good, keep it going.
Excuse me, Mr.
Ewing.
This is J.
R.
Ewing, the man that put up reward.
Mr.
Ewing, tell us, who is going to get that $25,000, sir? Oh, yeah, well first we have to ascertain who is responsible for finding Jack and, uh Mr.
Ewing, your blood, do you know if you have AB-negative? Dr.
Liu, ICU.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Dr.
McCann, CvT.
Jenna, Jenna, wait.
You're not leaving, are you? Why shouldn't I? Well, we're not even sure if Jack's blood sample matches yet.
I've done all I can.
I helped you find Jack.
What more does anyone want? Well, we've still got a long night here at the hospital, uh I know it would mean a lot to Jack if you'd stay.
Why doesn't anyone understand? Jack and I don't mean anything to each other.
Nothing.
My staying here won't do him any good or me.
You're wrong.
Don't do this to yourself.
Don't cut yourself off from everyone.
Jack cares about you.
Can't you just be here for him? No.
I wanna go home to Charlie.
Charlie is just fine.
Why are you doing this? What's wrong? You're not acting like the Jenna I used to know.
You're right.
I'm not.
And I never will be again.
Because nothing is ever gonna be the same as it was again.
It's Bobby.
That's what this is all about.
Jenna Bobby was my brother.
I miss him as much as you do.
It hurts sometimes.
But life has to go on.
Do you think Bobby would've wanted it any other way? Just leave me alone.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
Well, he's in getting his blood analyzed.
It's a damn shame it's not gonna do any good.
Yes.
You'll keep me informed what happens, won't you? Of course I will.
Uh, here comes Jack.
I'll call you later.
I'll be waiting.
Jack's at the hospital.
He's having his blood typed.
Time'll tell, won't it? - Say, Jack.
J.
R.
I wanna thank you for offering that reward to find me.
- That was very generous of you.
- Well, that's what families are for.
- What'd they tell you in there? - Nothing.
They're checking the antigen match.
You know, there is a possibility that your blood types won't match.
I want you to be prepared for that.
I know.
I understand.
And we're looking for other donors.
I'm sure we're gonna find somebody.
Excuse me, J.
R.
, I wanna speak to Cliff for a minute.
- Yeah, yeah, of course.
Hi.
- Sure are glad you got here.
- Yeah, we sure are, bud.
- Say, Ray, you did a hell of a job, buddy.
Miss Ellie.
How you doing? Clayton.
Hey.
She means everything to me.
I never should've let her go alone.
It's not your fault, Cliff.
Jamie is a strong girl.
She's gonna pull through this.
We have to believe that.
Have you seen her? They let me look in for a minute.
She didn't know I was there.
She's been like that ever since they brought her in.
Doctor? The immediate crisis is over.
Jack's blood's a perfect match.
