Dallas s09e23 Episode Script
174123 - Sitting Ducks
Last time.
I wanted to let you both know I've made an appointment to see a psychiatrist.
Maybe this will help.
Jenna continued to deceive only herself.
Everybody wanted me to go, I went, I'm gonna go back again.
How can you go back when you never went in the first place.
- Help me.
- Keep that Barnes woman committed to the mine, understand? What am I supposed to show them? A hole in the side of the mountain? I told you there's not much to look at.
The emerald mine scam continued.
For $2 million, I wanna believe in something.
Why don't I give you back your $2 million? - I'll buy you out.
- You're on.
You used to be the personal attorney to Dimitri Marinos is that right? - Yes.
What about Angelica Nero? I'm sorry, J.
R.
, I have to go now.
With Angelica Nero as much a mystery as ever the billion-dollar oil plot boiled on.
- Jack has been told nothing.
Then he has no idea how much he'll be helping us.
Or what it will cost him.
- J.
R.
Wants you back.
- He always wants what he can't have.
Does Kenderson have anything to do with the way you feel about me? Leave Jerry out of this.
The guy's clean.
I traced him all the way back to med school.
Go back to kindergarten of you have to.
But you find something on him.
When J.
R.
Ewing wanted something And Harry.
nobody stood in his way.
The dirtier, the better.
Hm? And now Mm-mm.
That's nice.
Oh, and this is real pretty too.
Yeah, that whole That whole line is nice.
Oh, look here.
Here's an old armadillo, would make a good pair of rough out boots.
Yeah.
- Really, I think this is what I like the best.
- My daddy thought you might like those.
He had me wear a pair over so you could see what they look like all made up.
Mm-hm.
Oh, those are real pretty.
Real pretty.
Would you mind? Thank you.
Oh, yeah, we have some other skins, Mr.
Ewing.
Some very exotic ones.
L I didn't bring them all over.
But if you'd like to see them, we can arrange it, if you get my meaning.
I talked to your daddy a long time ago about this.
I don't want anything on the endangered list.
I don't need any of those wildlife fanatics on my back.
All right, I'll take a pair of boots in this, only make it a little lighter.
- The color you're wearing.
- Oh, no problem at all, Mr.
Ewing.
Yeah? Sorry to interrupt.
It's Alex Garrett calling.
- Really? Yes, sir.
- He's calling from Geneva.
- Oh, all right.
I'll, uh, pick it up in a second.
I think one pair of boots will do me fine for a while.
I need them by next week.
There's a little business trip I'm going on.
- I wanna wear them.
- Oh, yes, sir.
And And, uh, thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
Alex? You still in Geneva, huh? I've had second thoughts, J.
R.
Well, I hope it's concerning that little conversation we had a few days ago.
Yes, it is.
What made you change your mind? Can't sleep at night.
You having nightmares about Dimitri Marinos? Angelica Nero and her friends would be more accurate.
I'm all ears.
It's a long story, J.
R.
I got plenty of time, Alex.
- Well, I don't.
Now, I'll be tied up in Brussels with some very important litigation for another week.
I won't be able to catch up with you until then.
Well, I'll be in Martinique in a week.
- With Angelica Nero? Yeah, that's right.
- I'd hold off on that if I were you.
- Well, I'm afraid that's not possible.
Look, J.
R.
, I've got to catch a plane.
The best I can do is to meet you in Martinique before the oil conference begins.
I'll book myself into the Mariah on the night of the sixth.
Oh, well, don't leave me hanging.
If there's something I ought to know All you need to know for now is that Dimitri Marinos is not a threat to you.
That may not be the case with Angelica Nero.
Until we have a chance to talk, I'd watch my step with her.
Do you like it? - Yes, of course I like it.
- But why? - Well, does there have to be a reason? Presents always make me nervous.
There's usually always a catch.
No catch.
Come on, put it on.
Here, let me help.
I'm not gonna promise how great I am at this.
Ahh.
Perfect.
There you go.
Let's see.
Yeah.
Simple, but elegant.
Thank you.
- It looks beautiful on you.
- That's so sweet of you, Jack.
Well, what can I say? You bring out the best in me.
Let's order.
There's no rush.
Grace I'm not real good at this but these past several weeks have really been terrific.
I mean, I've really enjoyed spending a lot of time with you.
And I just hope we're able to spend more time together in the future.
We'll have plenty of time together in Martinique.
No, I mean after Martinique.
I don't think we should get ahead of ourselves, Jack.
I just wanted you to know how I feel.
After things went wrong between me and Jenna - Please, Jack.
No, no, listen to me.
I never thought I could start to care about somebody again.
At least not so soon anyway.
But it's happening.
Thanks to you.
- Thank you.
- For what? For coming with me.
It was a big help having you here for my first session with Dr.
Ford.
Ha, ha, all I did was sit here in the waiting room.
Oh, yeah, but knowing that you were here helped.
It really counted.
Listen, I want to apologize for that scene that we had in the restaurant the other day.
I shouldn't have gotten angry and you had all the right to be furious with me.
I wasn't furious.
I was concerned.
There's a big difference.
So come on, tell me about Dr.
Ford, ha, ha.
He seems nice and I'm sure he's good at what he does.
Jenna It's just gonna take time.
And, well, you're gonna have to be patient with the doctor and with yourself.
Don't worry.
I know how important it is to the family that I keep seeing the doctor.
I promised Charlie, I promised you.
I'm gonna stick to it no matter how long it takes.
- Now you're talking.
- Oh, don't even mention that word.
I've been doing that for the last hour.
All right, gang.
We're home.
- Okay, buddy.
- Thank you, Ray.
You bet.
You're entirely welcome.
All right, everybody out.
Okay, be careful.
Careful, Louie.
- Thank you.
Bye-bye.
- Hop to it, guy.
Bye.
All right, watch your step.
Okay.
Okay, honey, I know you're asleep.
Come on, just hold on.
I'll help you a little bit.
That's it.
There you go, Mike.
Let's go, David.
Whoa! All right.
- Okay, see you all later.
- Bye.
You got me.
Come on.
Whoa.
Don't forget your sweater, partner.
You might need it.
Later.
Thanks.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Who's this little one belong to? Oh, that's Amanda.
She belongs to the Vacays.
There she is now.
- Okay, thank you.
- All right.
She's had a big day.
Sleepy girl.
There we go.
Boy, she's a real sweet little girl.
Kind of tired.
Uh Boys, boys.
Um, I forgot how to say, uh, "You're welcome.
" - You're welcome.
- You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
Thank you, boys.
You made friends today, Mr.
Krebbs.
Now, wait a minute.
I want you boys to call me Ray.
Yes, sir, Ray.
I want to see the comet.
The comet.
Oh, well, you have to have the sun go down.
You need a telescope, nighttime.
Come on, come on.
I gotta go now.
Tell Mrs.
Krebbs that we missed her today.
Okay, okay.
Bye.
Now, um Where is your mother and father? - Over there.
Bye, Ray.
- Okay.
Quite a day, huh? Think you might like to do it again? Oh, don't see any reason why not.
Quite a bunch of kids here.
Just take me a little while to sort them all out, though.
Bye, Ray.
Look, I didn't know that, uh, she was his sister.
Well, she's not exactly.
Tony just lives with her family.
Cranes are his foster parents.
He doesn't have a real mother and father, huh? Well, not in the sense you mean.
But under the circumstances, he's a pretty lucky boy.
He's been living with the Cranes for about a year now.
And they're good people.
Come on, Aunt Pam.
I'm opening up your present now.
Okay.
- The best gift of all is having you back.
- Yeah.
I'm just sorry that Clayton isn't here from Houston to welcome you home too.
Well, I understand.
What have you got here, big guy? Ooh! My Lord.
Look what Aunt Pam brought me.
Oh, that's marvelous.
Let me see it.
What's it called? That is a Chibcha shield.
It makes you a tribal chief.
Wow.
Oh, Pam, how did you know I wanted earrings? I love them.
- Will you help me put them on? - Sure.
- What is it, honey? - Did you get me anything? Oh, yes, I did.
Something very special.
But you have to wait until you get home to see it, okay? Pam, I'm sure everyone has a million questions for you.
- Well, ask away.
- Yeah, did you see any wild animals? And are there a lot of snakes down there? - Do they spit in your eye? And wild people? Whoa, whoa, come on, hold on, you guys.
One at a time.
Um.
No, no, no.
Now that we have that settled, what did you find out about the mine? Yeah, I'd like to hear too, Pam.
Well, it's there.
We saw it.
Matt stayed on to step up production.
You don't mean to tell me you're going ahead with that? - Of course I am.
- Heh, well, Lord in heaven.
Is there a problem, J.
R? No, no, it's her investment.
She can do anything she wants.
But you know what they said about the fool and his money? Or her money, as the case may be.
- J.
R.
Oh, Mama, I'm sorry.
Listen, I don't wanna be the one to ruin her happy homecoming.
Excuse me, please.
Pam, how difficult was it to get in the mine? The hardest part was getting there.
It was hot and rugged.
It's just a hole in the side of the hill.
But that will change.
Like I said to J.
R.
, I'm convinced Matt will make it produce whether it takes a year or five years.
Hey, get ready.
Here we go.
Whoa! Okay, there you go.
- Mommy, I love my presents.
- Well, I'm glad.
Especially the hat.
Can I sleep in it? Can I? Well, okay.
But you gotta go to sleep now because it's way past your bedtime.
Okay? Good night.
Oh.
- Mommy? - What? What is it? Am I gonna have to go back to Southfork if you go away again? Didn't you like staying at Southfork? Yes, I love Grandma and the horses and everything.
But I wanted to come home.
Oh, so did I.
So did I, sweetie.
I sure missed you.
Oh, I sure missed you.
I thought about you every second.
- I love you, Christopher.
- I love you too, Mommy.
Okay, now, let's get some sleep.
All right, there you go.
Okay.
Mark? - Yeah, Christopher? I love you too.
I love you too, guy.
Good night.
Good night, sweetie.
Come in, Sue Ellen.
- How did you know it was me? - Hm.
I'd know your footsteps anywhere, honey.
- Wanna sit down? - No, thanks.
Ah, how about a club soda or something like that? - No.
- Oh.
Hope you don't mind if I have one.
Well, here's to happier days.
I hope we can share a few down in Martinique.
J.
R.
, I'm turning down your invitation.
I'm not going to Martinique with you.
Or anywhere else for that matter.
You sure took your sweet time making up your mind.
I spent most of it trying to figure out the real reason you asked me to go with you.
Well, I thought I made that clear.
Getting away would be good for us.
So you said.
But let's be honest with each other for a change.
The real reason is the same as it's always been.
- And what's that? - You always want what you can't have.
And right now, I definitely fall into that category.
If this is the new Sue Ellen, I don't think I like her much.
Well, I do.
Very much.
Enjoy your trip.
I heard Martinique is beautiful this time of year.
Good night.
I am having a very hard time figuring out Miss Ellie's handwriting.
Look at that.
I mean, it says two cups.
Two cups of what? - Brown sugar.
- Ha, ha.
Brown sugar.
A penny for your thoughts.
Oh, I was just thinking about the kids at the Woodgrove School.
Yeah, they are kind of hard to leave behind at the end of the day.
You know, I really thank you for taking over for me today.
- Did they miss me? - Ha-ha-ha.
Yeah, yeah.
As a matter of fact, they did.
I can't figure out why, though.
- Real funny.
- Ha, ha.
You know, I really had a good time there.
I really enjoyed myself.
- I knew you would.
- I mean, really.
Really.
I guess I forgot how much fun you could have at a planetarium.
And every one of those kids knew so much more about astronomy than I did.
- Especially Tony.
- Really? Why, he's very talented in a lot of ways.
What do you know about him? What do you mean? Like what? Well, just the usual stuff.
Like he sure speaks well for being deaf.
Boy, he really does.
You know how hard he's worked to get where he is? Well, is he smart? Get along with other kids, get along well in school? Yeah, he's real smart.
Gets along well with everybody, he's Well, he's a little shy, but Why all these questions about Tony? Oh No reason, really.
Just figure I'll be around those kids again sooner or later.
Might as well know as much as there is to know about them, don't you think? Yeah.
This is gonna really be some batch of cookies.
You know, Cliff, there are speed reading classes available here in Dallas.
Very funny.
What's not so funny is the way you've handled Barnes-Wentworth while I was traipsing around in the jungle.
What did I do wrong? Nothing.
No.
As a matter of fact, some of the production changes are really very inventive.
If I'm not careful, you're gonna be running the whole company by yourself.
- And that's what worries me.
- You.
What would Barnes-Wentworth Oil be without you? You have a point.
I'm really proud of you.
I'm proud of you too.
Yeah? Pam just had this messengered over.
I thought it might be important.
I thank you.
Mm-mm.
What's that? I sold my half of the emerald mine back to Pam.
- Why? - Because there's nothing in it.
I'm convinced of that.
I tried to convince her, but I couldn't.
But how can you let her go on investing in it if you're so sure that it's a bad deal? Because it's become more than just a business deal to her.
And I don't think all the talking in the world's gonna change her mind.
- What do you mean, Cliff? - I just have a feeling.
I have a strong feeling that, for Pam, this is more of a tribute to Bobby.
It's like a final farewell.
I don't really think she ever cares if she turns a profit on that mine.
I just hope for her sake that she comes to her senses before she pours a whole bunch more money into Bobby's mine.
Because I'm telling you, it is nothing but a bottomless pit.
Well, hell, yes, I'm interested.
I'm always interested in a deal like that, Martin.
Ha, yeah.
- J.
R? - Eh? Listen, that door is for knocking.
I always knock when I come to your office.
- You know what you can do with your door? - Yeah, hold on.
Now where were we? Oh, yeah.
Why don't you have your office send the prospectus over to me and I'll get on it just as soon as I can.
Yeah, I'll try to give you an answer before I leave the country.
Yeah, all right.
My best to Penelope.
You were about to tell me what I could do with my door.
And the same thing applies to this deal you made with the cartel and Ewing Oil.
That's a very good deal.
- That's not the point.
- Well, what is? Your selling out our share of that drilling venture with Marinos was a major decision.
One that should have been made by both of us.
Well, Pam, it may come as news to you but the wheels of industry don't come to a complete stop every time Pamela Ewing leaves the country.
Now, an opportunity presented itself to me and I was well within my rights to move on it, which I did.
Now, you tell me something.
When's the last time you made a decision on Ewing Oil? I didn't know I had a quota to fill.
If my memory serves me correctly you wanted us to invest in Matt's emerald mine, isn't that right? It was Bobby's emerald mine and I still believe in it.
You went there and didn't find emerald one.
And now you still intend to throw good money after bad.
I am sorry, Pam.
Your business sense leaves a lot to be desired.
It's a little premature to decide that that mine isn't going to pan out.
And as far as my performance in this company you'd be hard-pressed to find any fault with any of the projects that I oversee.
Well, that may be.
But more often than not you base your decisions on what your heart tells you, not your head.
And that's very dangerous in business.
Pam, why don't you do us both a favor? Let me run Ewing Oil.
I'd sleep better at night and I know you would.
No, no, it's not that I don't approve of the way you laid out the access road.
It's the time frame that bothers me.
Let me see that schedule.
Give me that.
Look, we can save a month, maybe two by starting crews at both ends of the roughest stretches.
We'll chopper in the grading equipment if necessary.
The higher costs will be made up through the time we save in completing the operation.
Let's see what's left.
No, no, no.
I want this thing graded and ready in six weeks, got that? Aren't you taking this a little too far, Cantrell? What are you talking about? All the men and equipment just for a charade.
We're going forward with this mine.
I am surprised.
I was under the impression that you and J.
R.
Ewing were not interested in emeralds.
Just what did you think we were interested in? Just a little profit at the expense of a very wealthy and very naive woman.
You are better at taking money from people than emeralds from our mountains.
- You're wrong, Rueda.
- Am I? Yeah, I'm not here to take Pam Ewing's money.
I'm here to make this mine work.
Ha, ha, I have difficulty believing that.
You know something? It doesn't matter what you believe.
Of course.
It only matters what she believes.
- That's right.
- And she believes in you.
Yes, she does.
She is naive.
Well, I'll tell you, there is nothing like a new pair of boots to make a man feel good.
Hm, well, almost nothing.
They're beautiful, J.
R.
What kind of skin is that? Expensive.
Listen.
Call Jeff and tell him how much I appreciate them, will you? I didn't mean to interrupt.
Oh, Mandy.
Come on in.
- Sly, will you excuse us for a minute? Sure, J.
R.
You can leave the door open.
- Yes, sir.
This is stupid.
What is? My coming here.
I shouldn't have.
I know you're busy.
Well, I am on my way to the airport.
I have a little business to do out of the country.
Will you be gone long? A few days.
- Anywhere interesting? Martinique.
We need to talk.
Oh, I need to talk.
Well, I'm afraid it's gonna have to wait until I get back.
I may not be here.
I've been offered a modeling contract in Canada.
A long-term contract.
I need to know if I should take it.
I need to know if I should leave Dallas.
Well, I can't tell you what to do, darling.
Yes, you can.
No.
There was a day when that was true.
But you changed all that, Mandy.
If you think there's something worth staying for stay.
It's your decision, Mandy.
No, thanks.
Didn't realize it was late.
Hope I didn't get you in trouble.
No, it's okay.
I'm in no rush to get back to the office.
Spring fever? Mm, something like that.
Have you thought more about our trip to Europe? I don't think that's the answer.
- What's the question? - What question? Pam, what's bothering you? Everything.
Nothing.
I don't know.
It's the office.
It's J.
R.
And Ewing Oil and all of it.
You two at it again? No, and that's the problem.
I should be at it with him all the time.
Bobby was.
Bobby was.
I don't have the strength to fight him on a day to day basis.
And even when I do, J.
R.
Is usually right.
He knows much more about the oil business than I do, it's frightening.
He should.
He spent his whole life in it.
More importantly, he spent his whole life wanting to be in it.
Meaning? Maybe you just don't have the desire he has.
I'm in it because of Bobby.
For Christopher.
Not even Bobby would want you to lead his life for him.
You do that, you throw your own away.
Oh, is that what I'm doing? Pam, you didn't have to be in the Colombian jungle.
You don't have to be in Bobby's office butting heads with J.
R to prove how much you loved him.
You think I should sell out.
Pam, I think it's time for you to get on with your other commitments.
It must have been an awful experience, prison.
Yes, it was.
But you were released.
And went to live back at Southfork with your daughter.
And Bobby.
And you renewed your plans to marry.
Pardon me? Renewed your plans to marry? Yes.
Oh, I forget.
Had you set a date? - Not exactly, no.
- You hadn't? Well, Lucy was going to have her wedding first.
Was that a nice wedding? I guess so.
Weren't you excited that you were going to be next? It was just a wedding.
I see.
It wasn't nice.
It was nice.
Pretty.
- Big? - No.
Was yours and Bobby's going to be big? - I felt sick.
- At Lucy's wedding? I wanted to go upstairs.
What made you sick? - Just sick.
Did you go upstairs? To my room.
Did Bobby go with you? I wanted to be alone.
So Bobby didn't go with you.
Alone! Alone! I can be alone if I want.
What about Bobby? No Bobby.
Did something happen between you two? Can you tell me if something happened? Do you remember? Nothing happened.
I can't remember something if nothing happened.
It was a stupid wedding.
I hated it.
And I don't have to talk about it.
I don't have to talk about it! Ever.
It's time.
- Hmm? - It's time.
Oh, we have another hour before we land.
Well, you may be needing every minute of it.
Now, don't tell me you're getting nervous.
I'm not getting nervous.
I'm getting annoyed.
I don't know what you're waiting for.
Well, I don't wanna ruin his fun.
You don't have to.
Be diplomatic.
Make him like the idea.
You don't have to tell me how to do my job, honey.
Then what do I have to do? Just watch.
Well, y'all seem to be enjoying yourselves.
- Yeah, so far, so good.
- Quite a little setup they got, isn't it? I'll say.
Grace, would you excuse us just for a few minutes? I wanna talk a little business with Jack.
We won't be long.
Thank you.
Well, what's up, J.
R? Well, there's something very important I've been meaning to talk to you about.
But for reasons of secrecy I had to wait until we were well on our way to Martinique.
- I know that's not me in that picture, but - Well, you know that and we know that.
But nobody else does.
Who is it? Just answer me.
Who is it? Dimitri Marinos.
Oh, God.
Ha, ha, oh.
Come on, Jack.
You're gonna have to give us an answer pretty soon.
Or are you just gonna sit there and sulk the whole trip? Boy, you never fail to amaze me, J.
R.
- Ha, ha, well, that's a start.
What the hell do you expect? For two months now, you've been treating old Jack here like the village idiot.
All right.
So we didn't tell you everything.
You're acting like we're asking you to kill somebody.
All we're interested in is a simple little masquerade where no one gets hurt.
Honestly.
So why couldn't you have told me before? Well, I didn't know how you were gonna take it.
Besides, the fewer people that knew that Marinos was sick, the better.
What if I don't go through with it? Jack, the international press expects Dimitri here.
You know, the future of Marinos Shipping could very well depend on this.
Not to mention the millions of dollars that Ewing has got tied up in this project.
Come on, Jack.
It's only a couple of days.
And then we can all go our separate ways and no one will ever know that Marinos was not here.
What do you say? You gonna do it? I don't know.
Well, that's half the battle.
I think they've seen enough to be convinced that Marinos is in this car.
Jack, in two days, this will all be over.
So please, go along with us.
Yeah, Jack.
In for a penny, in for a pound.
And don't forget, you own 10 percent of Ewing Oil.
Ten percent of this deal is gonna be worth a hell of a lot of money to you.
Ha, ha.
You'll be able to afford to leave Dallas and go anyplace in the world.
Won't I, though? Thing is, I really thought Jenna was making progress.
Well, she certainly sounded as if she were.
- What do you suppose happened? - Well, I don't know.
But whatever it was, it happened at that last session.
Something to do with the day that Lucy got married.
But that was the day before Bobby died.
But why that particular day? I'm not sure.
But she said that's all the doctor wanted to talk about.
When I asked her why, she said I sounded just like the doctor that nothing happened that day, absolutely nothing and she didn't wanna talk about it.
Miss Ellie, were you aware of anything special that day? Well, I don't know.
I wasn't paying much attention to anyone except Lucy.
But I do remember that after Mitch and Lucy left Jenna said something about not feeling well and going upstairs to rest.
But I still don't see any connection between Lucy's wedding and Jenna's problem.
Well, maybe it had to do with the fact that Lucy got married and Bobby died before he and Jenna could.
Here you go.
Would you like menus now? Oh, later, Shelley.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And after all that, you're still going ahead with the mine and Matt Cantrell? I'm sure it's what Bobby would have wanted.
And that's still so important to you? In a way.
Mark helped me put everything into perspective.
Bobby was the most important person in my life for a long time.
But I'm ready to let go and I'm gonna face my life as it is now.
That's good, Pam.
I'm very happy for you.
But? I wish I could be as happy for Jenna.
What's wrong with Jenna? She can't let go.
Of Bobby? She seems to hold herself responsible for Bobby's death.
Well, why would she think that? She blames herself for not marrying Bobby and that if she had, he would still be alive today.
Tragedy is, we both know if he were alive today he'd be married to you.
Mark told me about Bobby's proposal to you in confidence, as a friend.
It was something he had to deal with too.
He's dealt with it very well.
I was wondering how Jenna would have.
I worried about that too.
But Bobby said that he felt Jenna knew somehow.
Why would Bobby think that? I don't know, but he must've had a reason.
Listen, Jack.
If we don't talk, you'll never understand.
Understand? Understand what? How talented you are at delivering the goods? I'll bet you got a nice little bonus for this, didn't you? What was it based on, how many times we went to bed, hm? All right.
It started out as a job.
I was to make sure you came to Martinique.
Well, here I am.
Funny thing is, I would've come here anyway probably.
Just because J.
R.
Wanted me to.
Because it was important to Ewing Oil.
Did you have to be quite as good as you were? Did you have to make me care for you so much? I didn't want that to happen.
I didn't want to end up caring about you.
But I did.
For the first time in my life, I started falling in love.
Hey, you really are good to the last drop, aren't you? Well, you don't need to bother.
You can tell Angelica that I'll go along with this little game of hers.
And then it's goodbye.
I'll never have to see you or her or J.
R.
Ever again.
Well, well, look who's here.
Ha, ha.
Oh, yeah.
Well, do you speak English? Of course, monsieur.
May I help you? Yes, uh, what's Mr.
Alex Garrett's room number, please? I am sorry, monsieur.
I cannot give that information out.
Oh, sure, you can.
I'm J.
R.
Ewing of Ewing Oil in Dallas.
Mr.
Garrett's expecting me.
I am sorry, sir.
Oh.
- What's it gonna cost? - Nothing, monsieur.
Monsieur Garrett is not registered here.
Perhaps he is at another hotel.
No, no.
He said he was gonna be staying here at the Mariah.
- Maybe you're holding a room for him? - No, sir.
All right, don't get on a high horse.
I'm just paying for services now.
This is where I'm gonna be staying.
If he checks in, I want you to call me because it's real important I speak to him.
Would you like me to check the other hotels for you? Ha, ha, well, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.
Like I said, I really wanna talk to him.
Has everyone we've invited accepted? The problem has been turning down the people we didn't invite.
An invitation to have lunch with Dimitri Marinos aboard his yacht is irresistible.
Well, with good reason.
You know, no one has really ever seen Dimitri or met him.
Sunday, they shall all see him.
Briefly.
I'm still concerned about what we're going to do with the authorities afterwards.
That's That's simple enough.
The captain of Dimitri's yacht has gone on record several times complaining about a problem with the fuel lines.
Now he's worried about the potential danger if there should be a leak.
Well, Jack and J.
R.
Are aware that they should be on the yacht before anyone else arrives at the dock.
Good.
The press can photograph them standing on the deck and even their long lenses won't be able to pick up the fact that it's not really Dimitri.
And then? I know your questioning mind, Angelica, so I've arranged a little demonstration.
- Are you sure this thing will work? Oh, quite sure.
And so, Dimitri Marinos and his good friend J.
R.
Ewing die in a tragic accident.
I wanted to let you both know I've made an appointment to see a psychiatrist.
Maybe this will help.
Jenna continued to deceive only herself.
Everybody wanted me to go, I went, I'm gonna go back again.
How can you go back when you never went in the first place.
- Help me.
- Keep that Barnes woman committed to the mine, understand? What am I supposed to show them? A hole in the side of the mountain? I told you there's not much to look at.
The emerald mine scam continued.
For $2 million, I wanna believe in something.
Why don't I give you back your $2 million? - I'll buy you out.
- You're on.
You used to be the personal attorney to Dimitri Marinos is that right? - Yes.
What about Angelica Nero? I'm sorry, J.
R.
, I have to go now.
With Angelica Nero as much a mystery as ever the billion-dollar oil plot boiled on.
- Jack has been told nothing.
Then he has no idea how much he'll be helping us.
Or what it will cost him.
- J.
R.
Wants you back.
- He always wants what he can't have.
Does Kenderson have anything to do with the way you feel about me? Leave Jerry out of this.
The guy's clean.
I traced him all the way back to med school.
Go back to kindergarten of you have to.
But you find something on him.
When J.
R.
Ewing wanted something And Harry.
nobody stood in his way.
The dirtier, the better.
Hm? And now Mm-mm.
That's nice.
Oh, and this is real pretty too.
Yeah, that whole That whole line is nice.
Oh, look here.
Here's an old armadillo, would make a good pair of rough out boots.
Yeah.
- Really, I think this is what I like the best.
- My daddy thought you might like those.
He had me wear a pair over so you could see what they look like all made up.
Mm-hm.
Oh, those are real pretty.
Real pretty.
Would you mind? Thank you.
Oh, yeah, we have some other skins, Mr.
Ewing.
Some very exotic ones.
L I didn't bring them all over.
But if you'd like to see them, we can arrange it, if you get my meaning.
I talked to your daddy a long time ago about this.
I don't want anything on the endangered list.
I don't need any of those wildlife fanatics on my back.
All right, I'll take a pair of boots in this, only make it a little lighter.
- The color you're wearing.
- Oh, no problem at all, Mr.
Ewing.
Yeah? Sorry to interrupt.
It's Alex Garrett calling.
- Really? Yes, sir.
- He's calling from Geneva.
- Oh, all right.
I'll, uh, pick it up in a second.
I think one pair of boots will do me fine for a while.
I need them by next week.
There's a little business trip I'm going on.
- I wanna wear them.
- Oh, yes, sir.
And And, uh, thank you, Mr.
Ewing.
Alex? You still in Geneva, huh? I've had second thoughts, J.
R.
Well, I hope it's concerning that little conversation we had a few days ago.
Yes, it is.
What made you change your mind? Can't sleep at night.
You having nightmares about Dimitri Marinos? Angelica Nero and her friends would be more accurate.
I'm all ears.
It's a long story, J.
R.
I got plenty of time, Alex.
- Well, I don't.
Now, I'll be tied up in Brussels with some very important litigation for another week.
I won't be able to catch up with you until then.
Well, I'll be in Martinique in a week.
- With Angelica Nero? Yeah, that's right.
- I'd hold off on that if I were you.
- Well, I'm afraid that's not possible.
Look, J.
R.
, I've got to catch a plane.
The best I can do is to meet you in Martinique before the oil conference begins.
I'll book myself into the Mariah on the night of the sixth.
Oh, well, don't leave me hanging.
If there's something I ought to know All you need to know for now is that Dimitri Marinos is not a threat to you.
That may not be the case with Angelica Nero.
Until we have a chance to talk, I'd watch my step with her.
Do you like it? - Yes, of course I like it.
- But why? - Well, does there have to be a reason? Presents always make me nervous.
There's usually always a catch.
No catch.
Come on, put it on.
Here, let me help.
I'm not gonna promise how great I am at this.
Ahh.
Perfect.
There you go.
Let's see.
Yeah.
Simple, but elegant.
Thank you.
- It looks beautiful on you.
- That's so sweet of you, Jack.
Well, what can I say? You bring out the best in me.
Let's order.
There's no rush.
Grace I'm not real good at this but these past several weeks have really been terrific.
I mean, I've really enjoyed spending a lot of time with you.
And I just hope we're able to spend more time together in the future.
We'll have plenty of time together in Martinique.
No, I mean after Martinique.
I don't think we should get ahead of ourselves, Jack.
I just wanted you to know how I feel.
After things went wrong between me and Jenna - Please, Jack.
No, no, listen to me.
I never thought I could start to care about somebody again.
At least not so soon anyway.
But it's happening.
Thanks to you.
- Thank you.
- For what? For coming with me.
It was a big help having you here for my first session with Dr.
Ford.
Ha, ha, all I did was sit here in the waiting room.
Oh, yeah, but knowing that you were here helped.
It really counted.
Listen, I want to apologize for that scene that we had in the restaurant the other day.
I shouldn't have gotten angry and you had all the right to be furious with me.
I wasn't furious.
I was concerned.
There's a big difference.
So come on, tell me about Dr.
Ford, ha, ha.
He seems nice and I'm sure he's good at what he does.
Jenna It's just gonna take time.
And, well, you're gonna have to be patient with the doctor and with yourself.
Don't worry.
I know how important it is to the family that I keep seeing the doctor.
I promised Charlie, I promised you.
I'm gonna stick to it no matter how long it takes.
- Now you're talking.
- Oh, don't even mention that word.
I've been doing that for the last hour.
All right, gang.
We're home.
- Okay, buddy.
- Thank you, Ray.
You bet.
You're entirely welcome.
All right, everybody out.
Okay, be careful.
Careful, Louie.
- Thank you.
Bye-bye.
- Hop to it, guy.
Bye.
All right, watch your step.
Okay.
Okay, honey, I know you're asleep.
Come on, just hold on.
I'll help you a little bit.
That's it.
There you go, Mike.
Let's go, David.
Whoa! All right.
- Okay, see you all later.
- Bye.
You got me.
Come on.
Whoa.
Don't forget your sweater, partner.
You might need it.
Later.
Thanks.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Who's this little one belong to? Oh, that's Amanda.
She belongs to the Vacays.
There she is now.
- Okay, thank you.
- All right.
She's had a big day.
Sleepy girl.
There we go.
Boy, she's a real sweet little girl.
Kind of tired.
Uh Boys, boys.
Um, I forgot how to say, uh, "You're welcome.
" - You're welcome.
- You're welcome.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
Thank you, boys.
You made friends today, Mr.
Krebbs.
Now, wait a minute.
I want you boys to call me Ray.
Yes, sir, Ray.
I want to see the comet.
The comet.
Oh, well, you have to have the sun go down.
You need a telescope, nighttime.
Come on, come on.
I gotta go now.
Tell Mrs.
Krebbs that we missed her today.
Okay, okay.
Bye.
Now, um Where is your mother and father? - Over there.
Bye, Ray.
- Okay.
Quite a day, huh? Think you might like to do it again? Oh, don't see any reason why not.
Quite a bunch of kids here.
Just take me a little while to sort them all out, though.
Bye, Ray.
Look, I didn't know that, uh, she was his sister.
Well, she's not exactly.
Tony just lives with her family.
Cranes are his foster parents.
He doesn't have a real mother and father, huh? Well, not in the sense you mean.
But under the circumstances, he's a pretty lucky boy.
He's been living with the Cranes for about a year now.
And they're good people.
Come on, Aunt Pam.
I'm opening up your present now.
Okay.
- The best gift of all is having you back.
- Yeah.
I'm just sorry that Clayton isn't here from Houston to welcome you home too.
Well, I understand.
What have you got here, big guy? Ooh! My Lord.
Look what Aunt Pam brought me.
Oh, that's marvelous.
Let me see it.
What's it called? That is a Chibcha shield.
It makes you a tribal chief.
Wow.
Oh, Pam, how did you know I wanted earrings? I love them.
- Will you help me put them on? - Sure.
- What is it, honey? - Did you get me anything? Oh, yes, I did.
Something very special.
But you have to wait until you get home to see it, okay? Pam, I'm sure everyone has a million questions for you.
- Well, ask away.
- Yeah, did you see any wild animals? And are there a lot of snakes down there? - Do they spit in your eye? And wild people? Whoa, whoa, come on, hold on, you guys.
One at a time.
Um.
No, no, no.
Now that we have that settled, what did you find out about the mine? Yeah, I'd like to hear too, Pam.
Well, it's there.
We saw it.
Matt stayed on to step up production.
You don't mean to tell me you're going ahead with that? - Of course I am.
- Heh, well, Lord in heaven.
Is there a problem, J.
R? No, no, it's her investment.
She can do anything she wants.
But you know what they said about the fool and his money? Or her money, as the case may be.
- J.
R.
Oh, Mama, I'm sorry.
Listen, I don't wanna be the one to ruin her happy homecoming.
Excuse me, please.
Pam, how difficult was it to get in the mine? The hardest part was getting there.
It was hot and rugged.
It's just a hole in the side of the hill.
But that will change.
Like I said to J.
R.
, I'm convinced Matt will make it produce whether it takes a year or five years.
Hey, get ready.
Here we go.
Whoa! Okay, there you go.
- Mommy, I love my presents.
- Well, I'm glad.
Especially the hat.
Can I sleep in it? Can I? Well, okay.
But you gotta go to sleep now because it's way past your bedtime.
Okay? Good night.
Oh.
- Mommy? - What? What is it? Am I gonna have to go back to Southfork if you go away again? Didn't you like staying at Southfork? Yes, I love Grandma and the horses and everything.
But I wanted to come home.
Oh, so did I.
So did I, sweetie.
I sure missed you.
Oh, I sure missed you.
I thought about you every second.
- I love you, Christopher.
- I love you too, Mommy.
Okay, now, let's get some sleep.
All right, there you go.
Okay.
Mark? - Yeah, Christopher? I love you too.
I love you too, guy.
Good night.
Good night, sweetie.
Come in, Sue Ellen.
- How did you know it was me? - Hm.
I'd know your footsteps anywhere, honey.
- Wanna sit down? - No, thanks.
Ah, how about a club soda or something like that? - No.
- Oh.
Hope you don't mind if I have one.
Well, here's to happier days.
I hope we can share a few down in Martinique.
J.
R.
, I'm turning down your invitation.
I'm not going to Martinique with you.
Or anywhere else for that matter.
You sure took your sweet time making up your mind.
I spent most of it trying to figure out the real reason you asked me to go with you.
Well, I thought I made that clear.
Getting away would be good for us.
So you said.
But let's be honest with each other for a change.
The real reason is the same as it's always been.
- And what's that? - You always want what you can't have.
And right now, I definitely fall into that category.
If this is the new Sue Ellen, I don't think I like her much.
Well, I do.
Very much.
Enjoy your trip.
I heard Martinique is beautiful this time of year.
Good night.
I am having a very hard time figuring out Miss Ellie's handwriting.
Look at that.
I mean, it says two cups.
Two cups of what? - Brown sugar.
- Ha, ha.
Brown sugar.
A penny for your thoughts.
Oh, I was just thinking about the kids at the Woodgrove School.
Yeah, they are kind of hard to leave behind at the end of the day.
You know, I really thank you for taking over for me today.
- Did they miss me? - Ha-ha-ha.
Yeah, yeah.
As a matter of fact, they did.
I can't figure out why, though.
- Real funny.
- Ha, ha.
You know, I really had a good time there.
I really enjoyed myself.
- I knew you would.
- I mean, really.
Really.
I guess I forgot how much fun you could have at a planetarium.
And every one of those kids knew so much more about astronomy than I did.
- Especially Tony.
- Really? Why, he's very talented in a lot of ways.
What do you know about him? What do you mean? Like what? Well, just the usual stuff.
Like he sure speaks well for being deaf.
Boy, he really does.
You know how hard he's worked to get where he is? Well, is he smart? Get along with other kids, get along well in school? Yeah, he's real smart.
Gets along well with everybody, he's Well, he's a little shy, but Why all these questions about Tony? Oh No reason, really.
Just figure I'll be around those kids again sooner or later.
Might as well know as much as there is to know about them, don't you think? Yeah.
This is gonna really be some batch of cookies.
You know, Cliff, there are speed reading classes available here in Dallas.
Very funny.
What's not so funny is the way you've handled Barnes-Wentworth while I was traipsing around in the jungle.
What did I do wrong? Nothing.
No.
As a matter of fact, some of the production changes are really very inventive.
If I'm not careful, you're gonna be running the whole company by yourself.
- And that's what worries me.
- You.
What would Barnes-Wentworth Oil be without you? You have a point.
I'm really proud of you.
I'm proud of you too.
Yeah? Pam just had this messengered over.
I thought it might be important.
I thank you.
Mm-mm.
What's that? I sold my half of the emerald mine back to Pam.
- Why? - Because there's nothing in it.
I'm convinced of that.
I tried to convince her, but I couldn't.
But how can you let her go on investing in it if you're so sure that it's a bad deal? Because it's become more than just a business deal to her.
And I don't think all the talking in the world's gonna change her mind.
- What do you mean, Cliff? - I just have a feeling.
I have a strong feeling that, for Pam, this is more of a tribute to Bobby.
It's like a final farewell.
I don't really think she ever cares if she turns a profit on that mine.
I just hope for her sake that she comes to her senses before she pours a whole bunch more money into Bobby's mine.
Because I'm telling you, it is nothing but a bottomless pit.
Well, hell, yes, I'm interested.
I'm always interested in a deal like that, Martin.
Ha, yeah.
- J.
R? - Eh? Listen, that door is for knocking.
I always knock when I come to your office.
- You know what you can do with your door? - Yeah, hold on.
Now where were we? Oh, yeah.
Why don't you have your office send the prospectus over to me and I'll get on it just as soon as I can.
Yeah, I'll try to give you an answer before I leave the country.
Yeah, all right.
My best to Penelope.
You were about to tell me what I could do with my door.
And the same thing applies to this deal you made with the cartel and Ewing Oil.
That's a very good deal.
- That's not the point.
- Well, what is? Your selling out our share of that drilling venture with Marinos was a major decision.
One that should have been made by both of us.
Well, Pam, it may come as news to you but the wheels of industry don't come to a complete stop every time Pamela Ewing leaves the country.
Now, an opportunity presented itself to me and I was well within my rights to move on it, which I did.
Now, you tell me something.
When's the last time you made a decision on Ewing Oil? I didn't know I had a quota to fill.
If my memory serves me correctly you wanted us to invest in Matt's emerald mine, isn't that right? It was Bobby's emerald mine and I still believe in it.
You went there and didn't find emerald one.
And now you still intend to throw good money after bad.
I am sorry, Pam.
Your business sense leaves a lot to be desired.
It's a little premature to decide that that mine isn't going to pan out.
And as far as my performance in this company you'd be hard-pressed to find any fault with any of the projects that I oversee.
Well, that may be.
But more often than not you base your decisions on what your heart tells you, not your head.
And that's very dangerous in business.
Pam, why don't you do us both a favor? Let me run Ewing Oil.
I'd sleep better at night and I know you would.
No, no, it's not that I don't approve of the way you laid out the access road.
It's the time frame that bothers me.
Let me see that schedule.
Give me that.
Look, we can save a month, maybe two by starting crews at both ends of the roughest stretches.
We'll chopper in the grading equipment if necessary.
The higher costs will be made up through the time we save in completing the operation.
Let's see what's left.
No, no, no.
I want this thing graded and ready in six weeks, got that? Aren't you taking this a little too far, Cantrell? What are you talking about? All the men and equipment just for a charade.
We're going forward with this mine.
I am surprised.
I was under the impression that you and J.
R.
Ewing were not interested in emeralds.
Just what did you think we were interested in? Just a little profit at the expense of a very wealthy and very naive woman.
You are better at taking money from people than emeralds from our mountains.
- You're wrong, Rueda.
- Am I? Yeah, I'm not here to take Pam Ewing's money.
I'm here to make this mine work.
Ha, ha, I have difficulty believing that.
You know something? It doesn't matter what you believe.
Of course.
It only matters what she believes.
- That's right.
- And she believes in you.
Yes, she does.
She is naive.
Well, I'll tell you, there is nothing like a new pair of boots to make a man feel good.
Hm, well, almost nothing.
They're beautiful, J.
R.
What kind of skin is that? Expensive.
Listen.
Call Jeff and tell him how much I appreciate them, will you? I didn't mean to interrupt.
Oh, Mandy.
Come on in.
- Sly, will you excuse us for a minute? Sure, J.
R.
You can leave the door open.
- Yes, sir.
This is stupid.
What is? My coming here.
I shouldn't have.
I know you're busy.
Well, I am on my way to the airport.
I have a little business to do out of the country.
Will you be gone long? A few days.
- Anywhere interesting? Martinique.
We need to talk.
Oh, I need to talk.
Well, I'm afraid it's gonna have to wait until I get back.
I may not be here.
I've been offered a modeling contract in Canada.
A long-term contract.
I need to know if I should take it.
I need to know if I should leave Dallas.
Well, I can't tell you what to do, darling.
Yes, you can.
No.
There was a day when that was true.
But you changed all that, Mandy.
If you think there's something worth staying for stay.
It's your decision, Mandy.
No, thanks.
Didn't realize it was late.
Hope I didn't get you in trouble.
No, it's okay.
I'm in no rush to get back to the office.
Spring fever? Mm, something like that.
Have you thought more about our trip to Europe? I don't think that's the answer.
- What's the question? - What question? Pam, what's bothering you? Everything.
Nothing.
I don't know.
It's the office.
It's J.
R.
And Ewing Oil and all of it.
You two at it again? No, and that's the problem.
I should be at it with him all the time.
Bobby was.
Bobby was.
I don't have the strength to fight him on a day to day basis.
And even when I do, J.
R.
Is usually right.
He knows much more about the oil business than I do, it's frightening.
He should.
He spent his whole life in it.
More importantly, he spent his whole life wanting to be in it.
Meaning? Maybe you just don't have the desire he has.
I'm in it because of Bobby.
For Christopher.
Not even Bobby would want you to lead his life for him.
You do that, you throw your own away.
Oh, is that what I'm doing? Pam, you didn't have to be in the Colombian jungle.
You don't have to be in Bobby's office butting heads with J.
R to prove how much you loved him.
You think I should sell out.
Pam, I think it's time for you to get on with your other commitments.
It must have been an awful experience, prison.
Yes, it was.
But you were released.
And went to live back at Southfork with your daughter.
And Bobby.
And you renewed your plans to marry.
Pardon me? Renewed your plans to marry? Yes.
Oh, I forget.
Had you set a date? - Not exactly, no.
- You hadn't? Well, Lucy was going to have her wedding first.
Was that a nice wedding? I guess so.
Weren't you excited that you were going to be next? It was just a wedding.
I see.
It wasn't nice.
It was nice.
Pretty.
- Big? - No.
Was yours and Bobby's going to be big? - I felt sick.
- At Lucy's wedding? I wanted to go upstairs.
What made you sick? - Just sick.
Did you go upstairs? To my room.
Did Bobby go with you? I wanted to be alone.
So Bobby didn't go with you.
Alone! Alone! I can be alone if I want.
What about Bobby? No Bobby.
Did something happen between you two? Can you tell me if something happened? Do you remember? Nothing happened.
I can't remember something if nothing happened.
It was a stupid wedding.
I hated it.
And I don't have to talk about it.
I don't have to talk about it! Ever.
It's time.
- Hmm? - It's time.
Oh, we have another hour before we land.
Well, you may be needing every minute of it.
Now, don't tell me you're getting nervous.
I'm not getting nervous.
I'm getting annoyed.
I don't know what you're waiting for.
Well, I don't wanna ruin his fun.
You don't have to.
Be diplomatic.
Make him like the idea.
You don't have to tell me how to do my job, honey.
Then what do I have to do? Just watch.
Well, y'all seem to be enjoying yourselves.
- Yeah, so far, so good.
- Quite a little setup they got, isn't it? I'll say.
Grace, would you excuse us just for a few minutes? I wanna talk a little business with Jack.
We won't be long.
Thank you.
Well, what's up, J.
R? Well, there's something very important I've been meaning to talk to you about.
But for reasons of secrecy I had to wait until we were well on our way to Martinique.
- I know that's not me in that picture, but - Well, you know that and we know that.
But nobody else does.
Who is it? Just answer me.
Who is it? Dimitri Marinos.
Oh, God.
Ha, ha, oh.
Come on, Jack.
You're gonna have to give us an answer pretty soon.
Or are you just gonna sit there and sulk the whole trip? Boy, you never fail to amaze me, J.
R.
- Ha, ha, well, that's a start.
What the hell do you expect? For two months now, you've been treating old Jack here like the village idiot.
All right.
So we didn't tell you everything.
You're acting like we're asking you to kill somebody.
All we're interested in is a simple little masquerade where no one gets hurt.
Honestly.
So why couldn't you have told me before? Well, I didn't know how you were gonna take it.
Besides, the fewer people that knew that Marinos was sick, the better.
What if I don't go through with it? Jack, the international press expects Dimitri here.
You know, the future of Marinos Shipping could very well depend on this.
Not to mention the millions of dollars that Ewing has got tied up in this project.
Come on, Jack.
It's only a couple of days.
And then we can all go our separate ways and no one will ever know that Marinos was not here.
What do you say? You gonna do it? I don't know.
Well, that's half the battle.
I think they've seen enough to be convinced that Marinos is in this car.
Jack, in two days, this will all be over.
So please, go along with us.
Yeah, Jack.
In for a penny, in for a pound.
And don't forget, you own 10 percent of Ewing Oil.
Ten percent of this deal is gonna be worth a hell of a lot of money to you.
Ha, ha.
You'll be able to afford to leave Dallas and go anyplace in the world.
Won't I, though? Thing is, I really thought Jenna was making progress.
Well, she certainly sounded as if she were.
- What do you suppose happened? - Well, I don't know.
But whatever it was, it happened at that last session.
Something to do with the day that Lucy got married.
But that was the day before Bobby died.
But why that particular day? I'm not sure.
But she said that's all the doctor wanted to talk about.
When I asked her why, she said I sounded just like the doctor that nothing happened that day, absolutely nothing and she didn't wanna talk about it.
Miss Ellie, were you aware of anything special that day? Well, I don't know.
I wasn't paying much attention to anyone except Lucy.
But I do remember that after Mitch and Lucy left Jenna said something about not feeling well and going upstairs to rest.
But I still don't see any connection between Lucy's wedding and Jenna's problem.
Well, maybe it had to do with the fact that Lucy got married and Bobby died before he and Jenna could.
Here you go.
Would you like menus now? Oh, later, Shelley.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And after all that, you're still going ahead with the mine and Matt Cantrell? I'm sure it's what Bobby would have wanted.
And that's still so important to you? In a way.
Mark helped me put everything into perspective.
Bobby was the most important person in my life for a long time.
But I'm ready to let go and I'm gonna face my life as it is now.
That's good, Pam.
I'm very happy for you.
But? I wish I could be as happy for Jenna.
What's wrong with Jenna? She can't let go.
Of Bobby? She seems to hold herself responsible for Bobby's death.
Well, why would she think that? She blames herself for not marrying Bobby and that if she had, he would still be alive today.
Tragedy is, we both know if he were alive today he'd be married to you.
Mark told me about Bobby's proposal to you in confidence, as a friend.
It was something he had to deal with too.
He's dealt with it very well.
I was wondering how Jenna would have.
I worried about that too.
But Bobby said that he felt Jenna knew somehow.
Why would Bobby think that? I don't know, but he must've had a reason.
Listen, Jack.
If we don't talk, you'll never understand.
Understand? Understand what? How talented you are at delivering the goods? I'll bet you got a nice little bonus for this, didn't you? What was it based on, how many times we went to bed, hm? All right.
It started out as a job.
I was to make sure you came to Martinique.
Well, here I am.
Funny thing is, I would've come here anyway probably.
Just because J.
R.
Wanted me to.
Because it was important to Ewing Oil.
Did you have to be quite as good as you were? Did you have to make me care for you so much? I didn't want that to happen.
I didn't want to end up caring about you.
But I did.
For the first time in my life, I started falling in love.
Hey, you really are good to the last drop, aren't you? Well, you don't need to bother.
You can tell Angelica that I'll go along with this little game of hers.
And then it's goodbye.
I'll never have to see you or her or J.
R.
Ever again.
Well, well, look who's here.
Ha, ha.
Oh, yeah.
Well, do you speak English? Of course, monsieur.
May I help you? Yes, uh, what's Mr.
Alex Garrett's room number, please? I am sorry, monsieur.
I cannot give that information out.
Oh, sure, you can.
I'm J.
R.
Ewing of Ewing Oil in Dallas.
Mr.
Garrett's expecting me.
I am sorry, sir.
Oh.
- What's it gonna cost? - Nothing, monsieur.
Monsieur Garrett is not registered here.
Perhaps he is at another hotel.
No, no.
He said he was gonna be staying here at the Mariah.
- Maybe you're holding a room for him? - No, sir.
All right, don't get on a high horse.
I'm just paying for services now.
This is where I'm gonna be staying.
If he checks in, I want you to call me because it's real important I speak to him.
Would you like me to check the other hotels for you? Ha, ha, well, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you.
Like I said, I really wanna talk to him.
Has everyone we've invited accepted? The problem has been turning down the people we didn't invite.
An invitation to have lunch with Dimitri Marinos aboard his yacht is irresistible.
Well, with good reason.
You know, no one has really ever seen Dimitri or met him.
Sunday, they shall all see him.
Briefly.
I'm still concerned about what we're going to do with the authorities afterwards.
That's That's simple enough.
The captain of Dimitri's yacht has gone on record several times complaining about a problem with the fuel lines.
Now he's worried about the potential danger if there should be a leak.
Well, Jack and J.
R.
Are aware that they should be on the yacht before anyone else arrives at the dock.
Good.
The press can photograph them standing on the deck and even their long lenses won't be able to pick up the fact that it's not really Dimitri.
And then? I know your questioning mind, Angelica, so I've arranged a little demonstration.
- Are you sure this thing will work? Oh, quite sure.
And so, Dimitri Marinos and his good friend J.
R.
Ewing die in a tragic accident.
