Dallas s09e26 Episode Script

What are you celebrating? My divorce from Ewing Oil.
I'm selling Christopher's shares to J.
R.
I've been waiting to hear that for eight years.
Why don't you move into town so the drive isn't so far? You and J.
R.
Don't have a marriage.
Why don't you take John Ross and move? I love you, Pam.
I want to marry you, if you'll have me.
You finally have everything you've ever wanted.
It doesn't mean much to me if I don't have you.
I think it might be too late.
If you want something on Kenderson, you're gonna have to put it there.
Maybe we'll just have to do that.
And I don't know why you all put up with me, but I do thank you.
We did it because we care about you.
You know that.
Well, I do now.
You know, I have a feeling the three of us Ah, thanks.
- Are gonna be spending quite a lot of time together in the next few weeks.
So you see, I have this big, empty house to fill very soon and I'm gonna need all the help I can get.
Ha, ha.
Well, that's good, because Clayton and I have cutting-horse sales to get to.
I'm looking forward to it.
I thought I'd never get finished in Houston.
Ah, good evening, everybody.
J.
R.
- J.
R.
Suppose you all want to hear how my day went.
Thank you.
- All right, how did your day go? - The best.
Something happened today that's gonna affect everybody.
Especially you, Mama, and you too, Ray.
And I suppose you're gonna tell us what that is.
Yes, yes, I am.
Ahem.
Miss Pamela Barnes Ewing marched into my office tonight and offered to sell me Christopher's share of Ewing Oil.
- You're kidding.
- No, I'd never kid about a thing like that.
That gives me 60 percent, which in effect means I own the company.
It's what you've always wanted, J.
R.
Pamela told me she was thinking of selling.
Well, you and Ray ought to be glad she did.
Without all that bickering and infighting that's been going on at the office lately I'll be able to concentrate on the business.
And those little 10 percent pieces you all got will be worth a lot more.
Oh, we all know how concerned you'll be over our interest.
Ha, ha.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, Sue Ellen, you hear the good news? Yes, congratulations.
Mm.
Uh, honey? Uh, Sue Ellen? Well, there'll really be no living with him now.
- Sue Ellen, hold on, will you? - Yes? It's such an important night to me I was thinking maybe you and me and John Ross could celebrate.
I've already made other plans.
I'm going out to dinner.
Oh, I see.
With somebody I know? Jerry Kenderson.
But after all, you shouldn't need me to help you celebrate gaining control of Ewing Oil.
- But I do.
- Why? You finally have everything you've ever wanted.
Not quite.
It doesn't mean much to me if I don't have you.
You know, not too long ago I would've given anything in the world to hear you say that.
You'll never understand how much that would've meant.
But not now? Too many things have changed.
Maybe even you've changed.
But I think it might be too late.
Just a minute.
I'm coming.
Coming.
- Hello, Jack.
- Jenna.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- Come on in, come on in.
- Thank you.
Would you, uh? Would you like some coffee or something? Oh, no, thank you.
I won't be long.
I just wanted to talk for a minute.
Sure.
Sure.
Sit down, sit down.
I think this would be easier standing.
Mm.
Ha, ha.
This sounds kind of serious.
I wanted to apologize to you for the way I treated you when we were seeing each other.
- You don't have to do that.
- Yes, I do.
I want you to understand that it wasn't your fault.
It was mine.
I was very confused then, Jack.
And I felt guilty.
I felt guilty because Well, for caring about you.
For being with you.
Anyway, I I think I've finally gotten myself, uh, together.
I'm still seeing a psychiatrist but at least I can now face life for what it is now.
I guess we just met each other at the wrong time in your life, huh? Yeah.
I think we did.
I didn't come here to try to start over.
I just wanted to clear the air between us.
So when you do come to Southfork well, at least we can We can be friends.
I'd like that.
But I doubt I'll be spending that much time at Southfork anyway.
Why is that? I don't know.
You know, it's funny.
You sort of got yourself together.
But I don't think I have.
I mean, all my family is here but I'm not sure I'm not sure I belong.
Maybe I just have to keep looking and find out where I really do belong.
Now, Harv Smithfield is going over Pam's offer right now.
He's drawing up a purchase agreement.
Ought to be ready real soon.
Well, that's wonderful, J.
R.
I know how happy that must make you.
Yeah.
Well, I'll be a lot happier when this loan is arranged.
You're talking about a considerable amount of money, J.
R.
Between your share and Christopher's there's more than enough collateral even with oil prices falling.
Oh, it's gonna bottom out real soon, Franklin.
Besides, we're making a tidy little profit per barrel right now.
I'll push the loan through for you today, J.
R.
Good, good.
I knew I could count on you.
Always glad to be of service.
Yeah, well, if that's the case, um I got another little project I'd like you to start working on.
- Oh? - Mm-hm.
Now that I'm gonna be in control of Ewing Oil I'm gonna be able to move a lot faster than I have in the past.
And I'd like you to set up a revolving line of credit for me.
No problem.
How much you talking about? Oh, let's say a billion dollars.
A billion? Ah, I know it sounds like a lot, but it's really not.
Not these days.
Well, whatever it sounds like it's considerably more than our bank could handle, J.
R.
Yeah, well, I assumed you'd put together a consortium of banks and I don't think it'll be any difficulty.
You just look around.
But why so much? Because I want Ewing Oil to be what my daddy always wanted it to be: The biggest independent oil company in Texas.
Well, I'll try, J.
R.
I know you'll do it.
Let me know when it's set up.
She's looking a little down, Eddie.
Put her on alfalfa and molasses.
Okay, Ray.
- Hi.
Hi.
- Morning, Eddie.
- Howdy, Mrs.
Krebbs.
You know, you sure left the house early this morning.
Didn't even get a chance to say goodbye.
I have an awful lot of catching up to do around here, honey.
I thought maybe you were bothered about J.
R.
No.
If it's all right with Miss Ellie, it's all right with me.
If it also happens to please J.
R.
At the same time, well, that's fine because I've got other fish to fry.
Say, why don't you take me over into Braddock and we have some lunch? - You'll have to give me about an hour.
- Sure, I got plenty of time.
You know, I went out to the house.
I thought maybe that's where you were.
- It's really coming along, isn't it? - Phew.
I mean boy, it's an awful big house for just two people.
- Gonna be a lot of empty rooms.
- Don't I know that.
Well, you know, we could always call your Aunt Lil and see if maybe she'd like to move in with us.
I don't think she'd do that.
Well, then, uh, maybe we ought to go on and think about adopting.
You're serious? Yeah.
I think it would make our lives just about perfect.
I know it would make our lives perfect.
You mean I'm finally gonna be a daddy? Yes, you are.
There's something you need to learn.
My son's name is T- O-N-Y.
I sure hope you're right.
I guess I finally got it all sorted out, Bobby.
It took a long time.
I remember I once asked you if you knew what it was like to love only one person all your life.
And you said yes.
I now know that you meant Pam.
So no matter how much I loved you and wanted to marry you I never really would've made you happy.
But you always had a special place in my heart.
And you always will.
I know that you'd want me to move on with my life and that's what I'm going to do.
Charlie misses you.
I put her through some bad times, but Thank God we're close again.
She fills up a lot of the empty places in my heart.
We'll probably be leaving Southfork.
I think we'd be better off somewhere else.
I don't know if we'll ever come back here again but if I do, it will be for all the right reasons and not out of sickness.
I'll never forget you, Bobby.
None of us will.
Goodbye.
- Yeah.
- Mr.
Barnes, Mrs.
Barnes.
Dora Mae, uh, my sister here yet? Yes.
She and Mr.
Graison are both here.
I'll take you to their table.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
Shall I pour it now? I'll pour it in a minute, Cassie, thank you.
- Hello.
- Hey, hi.
All right, you guys, what is this? A celebration? Well, you might say so.
Oh, I got it.
Sorry.
You guys are engaged.
When are you getting married? Oh, ha-ha-ha.
Not so fast, Cliff, that's not it.
That's not a bad idea.
Then what are you celebrating? A divorce.
- Huh? My divorce from Ewing Oil.
I'm selling Christopher's shares to J.
R.
That's the best news I've heard in a long time.
- Is that what you really want, Pam? - Absolutely.
- Then I'm very happy for you.
- That's great.
I'll start looking for an office for you at Barnes-Wentworth because we could use you there.
- Cliff - No, I'm serious, that's where she belongs.
- No, it isn't.
- Mark's right.
I have no desire to go from Ewing Oil to Barnes-Wentworth.
I just want to spend time with Christopher and Mark and not think about business at all.
I think you've already got somebody who knows a lot more than I do about the oil business.
- Thank you, Pam.
- Huh? Oh, yeah, well, that's nice, yeah.
All I'm saying is I want you to think about it.
- Cliff, will you stop it, please? - I'm stopped, I'm stopped.
Here's to the cutting of the cord between the Barnes family and Ewing Oil.
I've been waiting to hear that for eight years.
Hm.
Yeah, Sly? Harry McSween is here, J.
R.
All right, bring him in.
Hi, Harry.
- Afternoon, J.
R.
- Sit down.
- Can I get you anything? - No, shut the door.
What have you got for me? J.
R.
, I've been a policeman for a long time and I've done a lot of digging.
But I've never run across anybody like this Jerry Kenderson.
That good or that bad? Uh, when he dies, they ought to nominate him for sainthood.
That clean? I checked him all the way back to kindergarten.
Nothing there.
Well, I just don't see how a man can live to be his age and not get some dirt on him.
Well, I'd have said that too, until I started looking.
Never been in any kind of trouble? The closest he ever came was when he was in college.
Oh, did you know that he and that Mark Graison were roommates? No, I didn't know, and frankly I don't care.
Well, there was this fraternity prank.
One of the pledges died.
Half the fraternity members were suspended, including Mark Graison.
- What about Kenderson? - Nope, he wasn't there at the time.
Harry, you know this information you're giving me isn't doing me any good.
J.
R.
, if you want something on Kenderson, you're gonna have to put it there.
Hm.
Well, maybe we'll just have to do that, hm? Oh, early day? Very funny.
It's almost 6:00.
Glad I caught you.
Something very important to ask you.
- Guess what I have in my hand.
- Uh, it's empty.
Not this one.
The one behind my back.
- Um, a cure for the common cold.
- Ha, ha.
Close, but not quite.
Two tickets to the Dallas Symphony Orchestra Saturday night.
Ron Paul's the guest soloist.
- I'd love to, Jerry, but I just can't.
- Why not? I've just been out too much lately.
- I thought you enjoyed our time together.
- I do.
It's just that I think we're moving a little too fast.
A good-night kiss is not my idea of fast.
Then, too often and too late.
I never see John Ross at night anymore.
He's always asleep when I get back to Southfork.
Why don't you move into town so you don't have so far to drive? - Jerry - You don't have a marriage anymore.
Why don't you just take John Ross and move into town? I don't have to explain my reasons.
And if I ever do leave Southfork, it will be because I think the time is right not because someone else wants me to.
Hey I don't want to fight with you.
I just want to spend as much time with you as I can and I hoped you felt the same way.
All right, no fight.
Good.
Now, do I tear up these two front-row-center darlings or do you come with me? I'll go.
What time? Curtain's at 8, but we could have dinner first.
I'll meet you at the music hall at 7:30.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Ellie, you ready yet? Ellie? I'm sorry, Clayton.
I was standing in there looking at all those dresses and didn't see a thing.
Pam selling out to J.
R.
Has bothered you more than you let on.
No, no, it's not that.
Actually, I'm I'm quite happy about that.
Well, it should certainly make things more peaceful around here.
Hm.
Things may get too peaceful around here.
Well, now you've got me.
Well, I was just thinking about About the family and the future.
Lucy's down in Atlanta with Mitch and Christopher and Pam have their own life now.
She'll always let you see Christopher.
But it's not like having them live here.
And Donna and Ray's house is almost finished and they'll be moving out soon.
And who knows how long this truce between J.
R.
And Sue Ellen will last? What'll happen if she moves out and takes John Ross with her? Even Even Jenna's thinking of going.
Ellie, you can't have them around forever.
- I wish I could.
- Well, you're luckier than most.
Your family has stayed together one way or the other for a very long time.
I know.
Maybe that's what makes it so difficult now.
Well, it may not be much, but you'll always have me.
We've got a long, golden road ahead of us.
I know we do.
And that's the most important thing in the world to me.
Don't let my bad moods ever make you think otherwise.
I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't come along.
Well, I did.
And I love you.
And we do have each other.
You're a good man, Clayton Farlow.
And I do love you.
I love you.
If you want to keep me, you'd better get a move on.
Because I'm a bear when I'm hungry.
Now, come on.
Yes, sir.
Cassie, a bottle of the, uh, '78 Montrachet.
Uh, half a dozen oysters, and the orange roughy.
Thank you.
And speaking of seafood, there is a little place in Marseilles that has the most fantastic bouillabaisse you have ever tasted.
- Isn't that a little far to go for dinner? - No, not from Paris.
We're not in Paris.
Well, we could be if you'd just say the word.
And London and Rome and Madrid and Salzburg.
Pamela, Mark, good evening.
- Hello, Jordan.
- Jordan.
Say, uh, I don't mean to interrupt but, uh, could you set me straight on a rumor I've been hearing? Does this have anything to do with Ewing Oil? It does.
Is it true, Pamela? I'm selling Christopher's shares to J.
R.
, if that's what you mean.
Well, how about that? Good old J.
R.
Without anyone to hold him in check.
Hm.
Just as glad I mended my fences with him.
I don't think much is going to change.
Well, you may be right but I, for one, am gonna keep a close eye on Ewing Oil.
- Enjoy your dinner.
- Good night, Jordan.
Ewing Oil.
Is there any place in the world we can go where no one even knows the name Ewing Oil? Marseilles, Madrid, Rome.
Most of Europe.
Another good reason to go.
I really can't, Mark.
I've left Christopher too much lately.
Well, three tickets are as easy to buy as two.
He can go along with us.
It'll give us a chance to be together as a family.
- Really, the three of us? - Of course.
After all, I've never had any children.
I mean, how would I know? I might not be able to stand having him around all the time.
If it gets too bad, I might have to give you up.
That's not funny.
Sure, it is.
Maybe we should find out if we'll make a family together.
We will.
I'm sorry Alex couldn't make it, Mr.
Ewing.
Oh, that's all right.
He told me you would be speaking for him.
- How long have you been with Garrett? - Ten years.
I'm now Mr.
Garrett's personal assistant.
- Thank you.
Anything else? - No, that's fine, thank you.
- Okay.
Pretty girl.
Yeah, she is.
Been with me a long time.
You gonna be in town for a while, Walter? I'm flying out to meet Mr.
Garrett tonight.
Well, in that case, we better stop wasting time.
All right.
We have just recently finished sorting through the mess that Angelica Nero left behind.
She did some very strange things.
Well, I hope you're not talking about the deal she made with Ewing Oil.
- Now, that's as firm as can be.
- We agree.
That could be a big moneymaker for Marinos and Ewing.
But maybe not quite as big as you'd hoped.
Exactly what do you mean by that? Mr.
Garrett feels that the sidebar deal you made with Ms.
Nero where you got 15 percent of Marinos profits? He can't approve that.
The deal has to go back to fifty-fifty.
Well, I can understand Alex looking out for Marinos Shipping.
And I was never one to be too greedy, but all right.
I want that damn drilling to start up again, before the price of oil drops even further.
We all want the same thing, Mr.
Ewing.
And it won't be much longer.
I promise you.
Good, good.
Oh, say, uh, by the way, I'd really appreciate it if you would ask Alex not to tell anybody he's starting up drilling again.
Oh? Why is that? Well, it would be a big help to me.
L I have a little deal I'm consummating right about now.
All right, I'm sure he'll go along with that.
Incidentally, Mr.
Garrett heard from Martinique this morning.
Nicholas is free as a bird.
- You're not serious.
- Yeah, very.
He gave them everything they wanted on Angelica.
Names, dates, places.
He blamed it all on her, of course, and apparently it worked.
But the fact is, they might never have unraveled what actually happened without his help.
- Chances are we might not have either.
- I don't really give a damn about Nicholas.
As long as our deal is intact.
As a matter of fact, don't care about Angelica either.
Ha, ha.
That is all in my past.
Passport, social-security card driver's license, checkbook credit cards.
All guaranteed.
No one will ever question their validity.
Very good.
I have much traveling to do, and many debts to repay.
Mm-hm.
The price is right.
Pamela isn't asking for anything more than a fair market value on Christopher's share.
- That's what it looked like to me.
- Mm-hm.
You got the purchase agreement ready? It will be ready for signatures tomorrow afternoon.
All right, that's it.
It's all over tomorrow.
Can I fix you something? Uh, no, thank you, J.
R.
My wife's waiting dinner for me.
Well, it's finally yours.
Congratulations, J.
R.
- Good night, Harv.
- Good night.
- Hello? Mandy, it's J.
R.
- Hi.
- It's been a long time.
Yeah.
I'd, uh, like to come over and see you if you're not busy.
No, no, I'm not busy.
Can I fix you something to eat? No, no, no.
Just maybe a drink.
- I'll see you in a little bit.
- Okay, bye.
- Ouch.
Ha, ha.
It's not that bad.
Come on, now.
Stand up and let me look.
- Well? - Turn around.
- You look beautiful.
- So do you.
Better than that, Charlie.
I feel good, I really feel good.
Yes? - May I come in? Of course.
I'm glad you're here, Charlie.
I, uh I wanted to talk to you, Jenna but what I have to say is really for the both of you.
- Is something wrong, Miss Ellie? - Well, in a way.
I know you've come to grips with what's been bothering you and just looking at you and Charlie, it's easy to see that you've got both feet back on the ground again.
I'm still working on it, Miss Ellie, but I know I'm better.
Then, Jenna, I want you to reconsider your decision to leave Southfork.
Oh, Mama, can we stay, please? All my friends are here, and John Ross and Darius.
- I love it here.
- I know you do, honey.
Then why can't we stay? Why do we have to move to dumb old New York or something? At least stay until you're certain of what you do want to do.
It would make me very happy.
Me too.
Well, it seems unanimous.
- Do you really mean it, Miss Ellie? - You know I do.
Well, it looks like you have us underfoot for a while longer.
All right.
I love you, Mom.
Thanks.
Mandy.
I hope that tells you how much I've missed you.
Come in.
I just never thought I'd see you here again.
I thought it was all over between us.
Sit down.
- I have all your favorites.
- No, uh, not right now, Mandy.
Am I wrong? Isn't that why you're here? Mandy, I have done some things in my life that I am not really very proud of.
The easiest thing in the world for me to do would be to lie to you, keep you on a string.
But you deserve better than that, and I want to tell you where we're at.
No.
You don't have to tell me anything, J.
R.
For a long time, you meant more to me than I'll ever be able to tell you.
So I owe you the truth.
Mandy, it's all over between us.
It's because I betrayed you to Cliff Barnes, isn't it? No, I forgave you that a long time ago.
I hurt you, and you struck back.
I understand that.
What is it? Did I stop pleasing you? No.
Never.
It's someone else, isn't it? Yes.
I never thought this would happen.
There's really nothing I can do about that, is there? No.
This is the title to this apartment.
I bought it for you.
It's yours.
You can live here or sell it.
If you ever need any help, call on me.
Whenever you want.
It's yours.
J.
R? Will you at least tell me who she is, this other woman? I thought you would have guessed.
It's Sue Ellen.
The funny thing is, as much as I want her I don't think she wants me.
Pamela, if you'll sign these sales agreements I have a bank draft in your favor for the amount of the purchase.
You're not having second thoughts? No.
It's just seeing it in black and white, it feels different than I thought it would.
Bobby fought so hard for Ewing Oil.
Here I'm just signing it away.
But in the long run, this is what Bobby would have wanted.
You know that.
Maybe suddenly I'm not so sure that I'm doing the right thing.
It seemed a lot easier than it is.
Pam, you can sign now and the Barnes and Ewing clans can live in peace.
Or you can hang on and we'll be butting heads for the rest of our days.
I know that.
It's just so final.
Thank you, Pam.
That's it.
Now, that's your copy.
And there's your check.
It's all yours, J.
R.
I hope this does mean that we can all live in peace now.
We've got nothing to fight about anymore.
Congratulations, J.
R.
I'll file this bill of sale immediately.
Well, Bobby I finally control it all.
But it's not the way I wanted to get it.
I'd give it back in a minute if I could have you here to fight with.
Well, what do you think? Good-looking stock.
Where did you buy them? - Over at old man Parker's in McKinney.
- Ah.
Here's what I've been looking for.
Hey, Eddie.
Bring that little pony on over here.
Well.
Hey, hey.
Well, that's kind of cute.
- What are you gonna do with that? - Ah, bought him for me.
You can go ahead and put him in the stable next to mine.
You bet.
Come on.
All right, I'll bite.
Why did you buy him for you? I'm gonna teach my boy to ride on him.
Donna and I have decided to adopt.
Hey, Ray.
That's wonderful.
- When did you decide that? - Well, I just did.
- Well, that's good news.
- Yes, sir.
But I think you're kind of jumping the gun a little bit.
It's gonna be a while before that baby can ride.
He's not a baby.
He's one of the boys from the school.
He's near 12 years old.
Name's Tony.
I can't think of anything nicer.
And believe me I know how much you can love a child that's not yours by birth.
- Dusty.
- Mm.
Only sadness in my life now is that Dusty can't be a part of all this too.
But it was great while he was growing up.
You're a lucky man, Ray.
You got all that to look forward to now.
I don't know anybody luckier.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Mandy.
Sue Ellen.
How are you? If you really mean that, I've been better.
You might be happy to know I'll be leaving Dallas soon.
Uh Mandy, whatever happened between you and J.
R I never blamed you.
Mm, I know.
I remember at the rodeo you said something like that.
You also said one day J.
R.
Would hurt me.
He left you for someone else.
Is that it? Sue Ellen, why are you playing this game with me? - What are you talking about? - Do you really not want him? Or hasn't he told you? Told me what? You're the one he left me for.
Goodbye, Sue Ellen.
Ho! Good catch.
Toss it back, guy.
- I can't throw it that far.
Well, bring it back, then.
- Good one, all right.
Come on.
- Ha-ha-ha! Come on.
Let's throw it some more.
Don't you ever get hungry? - Sometimes.
- Well, I am starving right now.
- So am I.
Why don't we eat? You know, there's nothing like eating hot dogs in the park.
It makes them taste even better.
Can we play some more after we eat? - Oh, honey, you're gonna wear Mark out.
- Hey, I'm all right.
- What'll it be? Three dogs.
No onions.
- And I think How about one of these? - There you go, sir.
- Hold that.
- We'll be over at the bench.
- Okay.
You know, when I was a kid, I used to love these and sometimes when you're lucky, you find a prize in them.
- You got one? - Let's see.
Well, let's see here.
Wait a minute.
Look at this.
Three airline tickets to Europe.
How about that? Well, that's some terrific box you've got.
You're very lucky, huh? Wait a minute.
There's something else in here.
- Way down at the bottom.
- Get it out.
I got it.
It's way down at the bottom, I got it.
As long as we have these tickets I think the three of us should take a very special trip together.
By very special trip, I mean a honeymoon.
I love you, Pam.
I want to marry you, if you'll have me.
Oh, Mark, I'd love to marry you.
- Beautiful - Babe.
- Me too.
Oh! Lee, that's wonderful.

Thank you very, very much.
Okay, bye-bye.

That was Lee McHenry from the school.
You and I have an appointment tomorrow morning at 10:00 with the child-welfare unit to talk about adopting Tony.
- Hey! - Did he say how our chances looked? No, no.
But he sure sounded hopeful.
Oh, Donna.
That's just wonderful.
- Lf I can help in any way - Oh, thanks, Jenna.
Thank you.
- Are we celebrating something? Oh, you bet we are.
Ray and I are starting adoption proceedings tomorrow.

Oh, Donna.
Oh, Ray.

R.
Earlier.
They didn't say where they were going.
How come we're here at night, Daddy? Well, this time, I didn't want anybody here but you and me, son.
You know how many times we've talked about me taking over Ewing Oil? - Lots.
- Yeah.
Well, it finally happened.
It's all mine now.
- That's good, Daddy.
- Yeah.
- See your grandpa there? - Yes.
Well, you know, I wasn't much older than you are right now when started taking me out in the fields and teaching me how to run an oil company.
And I got to thinking, maybe it's about time you start.
- Would you like that? - I sure would.
I could work right with you, Daddy, and you can teach me.
That's just what I'm gonna do, son.
And I guarantee you, I'm gonna build you an empire.
And nothing can stop me now.
Angelica.
Hello, Nicholas.
My, but it's quiet, isn't it? It's almost as though no one was here at all.
You know my passion for solitude.
How did you know where I was? It wasn't very difficult.
Where are your manners, Nicholas? Aren't you going to offer me a drink? Certainly.
You know, I was very surprised when the police in Martinique released me.
So was I.
I suppose they felt they didn't have enough evidence to, uh To, uh To hold me.
Or was it because you told them everything they needed to know about me? No, Angelica.
Let me Let me explain.
Why, Nicholas.
I believe you are frightened of me.
No, I I want you to understand.
But I do.
I understand very well, Nicholas.
We all have to do what we must to survive.
Well, does? Does that mean you forgive me? Why, there's nothing to forgive.
Dear Nicholas, come.
There's nothing to be afraid of.
Angelica, no.
You don't understand.
It's funny.
That's exactly what Grace said before she died.
And now there's only Jack and J.
