Dallas s13e17 Episode Script

NARRATOR: Last on Dallas: You're crazy, you know that? Chasing some fantasy.
- Maybe I am.
CLIFF: What's with you and April? BOBBY: We broke up for a while.
- I'm your wife, J.
R.
- Would you excuse me, please? Oh, my God.
So it's not just my imagination.
CLIFF: She is the spitting image of Pam.
My personal life doesn't matter.
Cliff, it's yours that we have to worry about.
There's always Bug Flats.
- What's that? - Bug Flats.
I'm sure there's a notion of oil under there.
I won't be another Sue Ellen, I won't.
Suppose you could speed up his release? Mr.
Ewing, if you can promise he won't be back you can have him tonight and for the rest of his life.
- Deal.
- It's me.
No.
That's Pam.
Pam was Cliff's sister and she was my wife.
Yeah, you give me my night.
Let's go find us some oil.
J.
R: Blackie, you never did tell me why you were in jail.
BLACKIE: You never asked.
J.
R: Yeah.
Well, I'm asking now.
BLACKIE: I guess I got a few people mad at me, about 200.
J.
R: Huh? BLACKIE: Judge said it was fraud.
J.
R: What kind of fraud? BLACKIE: Promised some investors that I'd find them oil and Well, drilled a dry hole.
Dang.
Dang, man.
I thought you said when it came to finding oil, you were never wrong.
I make one mistake, now you don't trust me.
We get to Pride and I find out you've been pulling my chain gonna have somebody skin - I promised you I'd find you oil and I'll find it for you.
Now, let's get going.
Is this the place or what? The minute I saw it, I knew it was just perfect.
And you expect me to buy the whole block? This warehouse district is just ripe for development.
I mean, look how close we are to the West End.
- It's a very good idea.
- No, it's a brilliant idea.
And we'll have a restaurant here a health club over here, condos up above.
It's not a warehouse, it's a concept.
I thought the Stevens sisters were gonna start a little smaller.
Look, we're trying to re-think the single life of Dallas.
That's not a small project.
It's a holy mission, sis.
And don't you ever forget it.
I love your enthusiasm.
Look, I know what's needed.
I'm a professional single.
So am I, unfortunately.
I wish you and Bobby would make up.
I mean, it's getting in the way of business.
I don't know what happened.
It all just kind of exploded into pieces.
I'm sorry you're hurting so much.
Hey, work is great therapy.
So why don't you tell me what this big space is for? This place over here is gonna be for our night club.
I mean, think of romance, think of mystery think of looking for love in all the right places.
[WALTZ PLAYING.]
MICHELLE: So, what do you think? You wanna go for it? I think we should.
I really do.
Great.
- There's only one problem.
- What's that? MICHELLE: I don't know if these warehouses are for sale.
APRIL: What? - Don't worry about it, we'll check it out.
JAMES: You say this guy wants to meet me? - That's right.
Who is he? What's it all about? He's name is Duke Carlisle.
Bobby and J.
R.
Have known him for years.
Is he an oilman? He's more of an entrepreneur.
When he heard you were the only one in, he asked to meet you.
Well, then let's see what a Duke Carlisle looks like.
Okay.
Hello, son.
I'm Duke Carlisle.
- How are you, Mr.
Carlisle? - Oh, please, just call me Duke.
I've known your daddy about two dozen years.
Well, it's nice to meet you, Duke.
What brings you to Ewing Oil? Well, I come over here with a real rattlesnake of a deal for the Ewing boys.
That means a deal with the big fangs up front and a lot of nasty action on the back end.
Believe me, they're gonna love it.
Well, maybe you could tell me about it.
Oh, I'll wait for them.
I just wanted to meet the new Ewing on the block.
You're a good-looking boy.
I bet J.
R.
Is real pleased that you've taken an interest in the oil business.
Don't assume that I'm some trainee around here.
I've got my own money.
- And I cut my own deals.
- Ha-ha! Now you're really sounding like your old man.
Are you saying that you'd like a little action for yourself? I'd love to hear about it.
Here's a list of my holdings in the legalized gambling field.
I got dog tracks, bingo, poker dens standard bred and thoroughbred parimutuel operations.
You name it.
You're very well-diversified.
Why do you need the Ewings? Legal gambling is the way of the future in Dallas.
Braddock County is the perfect place to start it up.
Now, there's a section of land right next to Southfork that will make a dandy location for a racetrack.
And with J.
R.
's local clout J.
R.
's not included in any of my deals.
I work on my own.
Hey, that's okay.
All I need's a family name.
Believe me, boy, we can have the first and biggest rattlesnake in what's gonna be a very profitable pit.
You know, I like you, man.
Here, listen, why don't you come to my house about noon tomorrow, dress real casual.
I'll set up the whole pitch for you.
Might be fun to do a little business with the younger generation.
WOMAN: Ooh.
Not bad.
No, not bad at all.
I think old Bobby Ewing's gonna like what he sees.
JEANNE: There is more to that than you could possibly know.
WOMAN: Oh, sounds juicy.
Come on, don't hold back, girl.
Well, get this.
It turns out that I am the spitting image of his ex-wife.
- You are kidding me.
- I'm not.
I saw her pictures, Sheryl.
Honest, we could be twins.
Well, so what? I mean, you know, a lot of guys go for pattern dating.
In fact, I know this one guy he's been married five times, and each and every one a redhead.
Well, if you ask me, I think he's still got some kind of hang-up about her.
What? That bothers you? Sheryl, he's got this way of staring at me.
Like he's trying to look inside of me or something.
Well, maybe he's just trying to see through your blouse.
- This is not just about sex.
- So? There's something else turning him on here.
You know, in some ways, Bobby is almost too good to be true.
He is so fascinated by me.
I keep thinking that the clock is gonna strike 12 and he's gonna snap out of it.
Oh, well, he sounds great to me.
Like tonight, this whole mystery date he set up for you.
I mean, it's exciting.
Well, I'd kill for a man with imagination.
Does it look like I'm holding back? [BOTH LAUGHING.]
Hey, look, if he's got a thing about his ex-wife then why shouldn't I use it? I mean, it's not every day a girl like me gets a shot at a great guy like Bobby Ewing.
Do you think these are too much? Hey, hon, if the shoe fits, wear it.
[BOTH LAUGHING.]
JEANNE: Sheryl.
BOBBY: Hello, hello, hello.
You have really got me fooled.
- You look fantastic.
- Well, thanks.
- How's your voice? - My what? Your singing voice, can you carry a tune? - I used to sing in the church choir.
- That's perfect.
That's perfect.
No allergies? Bobby, l Now I'm really lost.
Well, I don't want you to be allergic to, like, hay and stuff like that.
JEANNE: It's a hayride.
I haven't been on a hayride since I was a kid.
BOBBY: It's never too late for a second childhood.
Come on, we're off to a barn dance.
BLACKIE: Pull over right there.
J.
R: Where, here? Right now? BLACKIE: Pull over and shut her down.
Yeah.
J.
R: This is it? This is where my oil is? BLACKIE: Well, it's around here somewheres.
I guess they tore down that old farmhouse with the sagging roof.
J.
R: Now, wait a minute.
You told me you knew the exact spot.
Well, I do.
Give or take a mile or so either way.
Open this thing up.
You know something? You ought to take some of that money of yours and buy some tranquilizers.
You're getting mighty testy.
I just drove 700 miles.
I'm tired and I want some sleep.
There's no time for sleeping now.
We got work to do.
Work? It's after midnight.
You can't see your hand in front of your face.
Here.
Now you can see.
You don't use your eyes to find oil, anyway.
You use your nose.
It's all in the nose.
And my nose works the best after dark.
So quit acting like a prima donna and come on.
You know, I'm getting damn tired of your sass.
Now you're beginning to sound like your daddy.
What's that supposed to mean? Well, everybody knew that Jock Ewing was overrated as an oilman.
It was me and Digger Barnes that had the gift.
Now come on.
J.
R: You know, I'm almost looking forward to not finding oil, just give me a good excuse to strangle you.
BLACKIE: Yeah, your daddy talked a big deal too but it was always me and Digger that found the oil.
J.
R: Well, you better find that oil now.
BLACKIE: Just follow the light.
JEANNE: Maybe it fell over the side.
I don't see how you can lose just one boot.
I only took them off so I could snuggle up to you.
BOBBY: Listen, it's probably under the hay somewhere.
I'll stop by the barn tomorrow and look for it, okay? Come on, I'll carry you.
Thank you, guys, for letting us come along.
- I had fun.
- Goodbye.
Goodbye.
I had the most special night.
Thank you.
So did I.
It brought back a lot of nice memories.
And started some new ones, I hope.
Absolutely.
BLACKIE: Hey, we're getting close, Junior.
My nose is twitching like a south- of-the-border Mexican jumping bean.
J.
R: I'm getting tired of hearing about that nose of yours.
BLACKIE: Just like your daddy.
Complain, complain, complain.
J.
R: You make one more crack about my daddy l'll knock that precious nose of yours 5 inches off center.
BLACKIE: He was testy too, just like you.
All right, damn it, that's it.
I'm finished with this wild goose chase.
Hold it.
Hold it.
You couldn't find oil under the hood of my car if I handed you a gold-plated dipstick.
I couldn't, huh? Well, you're standing on it.
- On what? - The oil.
This is Bug Flats You're standing right in the middle of it.
There's just a big gusher down there waiting to come up.
- Now, are you sure? - Sure.
Listen, you get ahold of that crew you got standing by with that rig and tell them to get up here.
I'm gonna go find us a place spud in.
Well, give it a try.
Oh, I also wanna send a bouquet of flowers to a Jeanne O'Brien at Stanton Drake Realty, okay? A tropical bouquet, you know, some torch ginger, a dozen anthurium And half dozen birds of paradise, right? - That's exactly what I was gonna say.
- Hey, I'm paid to read your mind.
Hey, come on, seriously, how did you know? That's what you used to order for Pam.
You have a very good memory, Phyllis.
So who is this Jeanne O'Brien? Are you house hunting or something? It's a long story.
I'll fill you in later.
I see.
Do you still wanna stick to these flowers for Miss O'Brien? It was always a great-looking bouquet.
Let's do it.
Okay.
APRIL: It's a very beautiful model, Mr.
Inagaki.
But I hope you'll agree that our idea for the warehouse district has merit too.
Oh, your scheme is very clever.
I wish I had thought of it.
After all, hotels and shopping centers can be built anywhere.
But our complex needs to be adjacent to the West End in order for it to succeed.
You do understand? Without my property, your venture can't get off the ground.
Exactly.
Therefore, we'd be willing to offer you an excellent price.
Basically, Mr.
Inagaki, we'd bend over backwards to be able to cut a deal that will benefit both of our companies.
I like your idea.
I'd be willing to help fund its development in exchange for controlling interest.
We're not looking for a partner.
This is our vision.
We wanna do it our way.
I see.
However, I too have my own vision and it has 400 rooms and a shopping mall.
And that, I'm afraid, is that.
- You won't sell? - No.
APRIL: Is there anything we can do to change your mind? I'm afraid not.
Well, I'm sorry you feel that way.
My sister is very disappointed.
I understand her passion and I regret we couldn't do business.
Here.
As you can see, I put an option on this section of land right next to Southfork.
That's a rather large chunk of land, isn't it? We need a lot of room for the biggest racetrack in the southwest.
Gonna be the crown jewel in the old Duke's kingdom.
Daddy.
What's my interest? Well, in exchange for your family's influence and a little seed money l'm gonna make you the largest minor shareholder.
Our lawyers can haggle out the percentage.
Baby, this is James Beaumont who may become a new business partner.
James, this is my daughter, Melinda Carlisle.
- It's a pleasure to meet you.
- No, the pleasure is mine.
Look like you have right kind of hands.
- You see, I like a guy with a strong pull.
- No idea what you're talking about.
Come around to the back of the house and I'll show you my favorite sport.
- Well, maybe some other time.
- Baby, we gotta work.
Daddy, you're being very boring.
I'm sure that James here would just love to get his hands on my recurve.
- That's sounds interesting.
MELINDA: You'll have fun.
And I'll explain everything to you.
- Daddy, please.
- Baby, we gotta work.
James will be by tomorrow.
Maybe then you get a chance to show him your tricks.
Well, I'd like that.
Yeah, well, if I have time.
It's nice to meet you.
Maybe we should get back to those survey maps.
Just like J.
R.
, all business, huh? Later, baby.
See you tomorrow, James.
MAN: I'm gonna have to pull it up.
Yeah, that's right, Cally, huh? Yeah, darling.
I'm working this girl round the clock.
And I got backup standing by.
No, don't you worry.
We're gonna hit oil, just wait and see.
All right, sweetheart.
[CAR HORN HONKING.]
Excuse me, folks, just one second.
I'll be back.
What are you doing here? I came to return your glass slipper.
Thank you for my flowers, they're beautiful.
Are they beautiful enough to convince you to go on a picnic with me? I have the hamper and the champagne's cold.
Oh, but I have a new listing.
And Mr.
And Mrs.
Beauford are serious buyers.
Let me talk to them.
- Mr.
And Mrs.
Beauford? - That's right.
I'm terribly sorry.
This house, it's sold.
- It is? BOBBY: Yeah, to me.
I just bought it for 10,000 over the list price.
I hope you're not too disappointed.
Well, the garage was too small, anyway.
And frankly, I hate the landscaping.
It's all yours.
Bobby, why did you do that? - Every little commission helps.
- I wasn't kidding.
I will buy the house, it will make a good rental property.
Despite the garage and the landscaping.
- You're crazy, you know.
- No, just impulsive.
And I hate warm champagne.
[BAND PLAYING JAZZY MUSIC.]
JAMES: I like this place.
It's hot.
Too small, wrong location.
I heard it was the top dance club in town.
We want more, much more.
JAMES: So it's thumbs down.
The truth is we need Inagaki's property.
I mean, it's the only answer.
You're right, April.
I think we need to play hardball with him.
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE.]
Why don't we get away from all of this noise so we can talk? Would you please get the car? Cally, honey, it's late.
Don't keep calling me because I gotta keep this line open.
You can't sleep.
Nobody's sleeping around here.
Listen, darling, Blackie's running this crew like Well, like it was the pharaoh's own personal slave ship.
MAN: Bring in some more pipe.
I feel something's gonna happen, I really do.
And I'll call you just as soon as it does.
It's 3:00 in the morning.
You get some sleep, I'll call you, all right? All right, darling.
[MUTED DIALOGUE.]
MAN 1: Come on, come on.
What's your problem? MAN 2: Push it over.
MAN 3: Yeah, it's the bleach.
MAN 4: The pressure's pretty high.
Bring in some more pipe.
[RUMBLING.]
Here she comes.
Clear the floors! Hey.
Hey, everybody, jump off the deck.
[BLACKIE & J.
R.
LAUGHING.]
J.
R: It's the oil.
We found it.
I knew you could do it.
[YELLING INDISTINCTLY.]
I told you, I told you.
That nose I know.
Better.
Much better.
Now I wanna help you with your stance.
You gotta square yourself to the target like this.
Your dad is waiting for me.
Just wanted me to say hello to you.
He can wait.
All right.
We've got important business to discuss, okay? They're predicting rain.
I gotta finish so I can get back to the office.
Don't make me unhappy.
Daddy doesn't like that.
Okay, show me.
First, I gotta show you how to knock.
Ooh.
You're a natural.
Cool it.
Your dad's right around the corner.
Keep your wrist straight.
And as you draw, push your bow hand forward.
That's right, taut.
Nice and taut.
Come on, don't be afraid to really pull hard.
And keep your head erect, it's real important.
All right, this just isn't my game.
No? All right, then let's make it a little more fun, huh? How about a little wager? Every time I hit the bull's eye, you take off a piece of your clothing.
No way.
And every time that you hit the target, even on the outside rings l'll strip down.
Let's start with your last arrow.
Look, enough is enough.
I said hello, I shot an arrow, goodbye.
You don't realize how important I am to your business deal.
Oh, but you're about to find out.
Come on, James.
We got some more details to discuss.
JAMES: I'm ready.
- You two have a nice chat? James has been very, very boring.
Now, don't get on Melinda's bad side, James.
- She's real important to me.
- Daddy.
[THUNDER RUMBLING.]
MICHELLE: You've seen every place I can think of and they're all wrong.
That warehouse district is the only thing that will work.
Why don't we just forget about it? Besides, it's gonna rain.
Come on, a little rain won't hurt us.
And what happened to your enthusiasm? Look, Shelley, I have something important to tell you.
If you wanna back out of our venture, forget it.
It will work out, I promise.
It's not about the idea, it's something else.
I thought work was helping get Bobby off your mind.
Look, I'm thinking about leaving Dallas.
You're what? APRIL: I guess I didn't realize how important Bobby was to me.
[SIGHS.]
Since we broke up, I mean, I just hate it here.
I can't get enthusiastic about anything.
I just need to start fresh somewhere else.
There was a lot of wisdom in what you just said.
And a lot of self-pitying garbage.
Don't let that man screw up your hopes and dreams.
Come on, Shelley.
God created men just to aggravate us, especially when we're on a roll.
But now we're fighting back.
I mean, forget the chocolates, forget the romance novels.
Let's channel our energies into business.
Create an empire by women for women.
All you need is a marching band and Old Glory waving above your head.
I'll get that warehouse from Inagaki.
All I need is you by my side.
Okay.
Okay, I'll stay one more week for you.
But if you can't get Inagaki's warehouses, I'm out of here.
Well, I guess that's our omen.
It was the greatest moment of my life watching that oil gush out of the ground.
Especially since it was close to where Daddy got his first will.
I'll bet it's been 20 years since anybody brought in a fuel like that.
You know what I'd do if I were you fellows? I'd call the governor, make him give me a part.
J.
R: Damn right.
Damn right.
It's good news, but we don't know how much oil is down there.
Oh, there's a lot, son.
There is a lot.
I can smell it.
J.
R: And Blackie's nose never lies.
Bobby, I have a feeling our monetary woes are over.
- Should we put out a press release? - We could use good publicity for a change.
There's gonna be a plenty of time for chest thumping.
I'm gonna go home, tell Mama and Cally and the old boys about it.
- You coming, Bob? - No, I have a previous engagement.
J.
R: Well, break it, hell.
It's not like you to miss the fun at home.
I can't.
You go on without me.
Are you all right? It's not like you to miss a time like this.
I'll catch up to the party later.
J.
R: Well, hell with it.
More for us, huh? - Hey, Bobby.
- James.
I have a spare umbrella in my office.
Thanks.
Hey, James.
James, great news.
We got ourselves a gusher down in Pride.
Oh, that's good.
Good? It's great.
And there's a story that goes with it.
I can't wait to tell it.
Yeah? Who'd you have to sleep with to make it gush? I assume that's a joke.
Yeah.
Well, you know how fed up I am with oil.
You'd have felt differently if you'd been there, I tell you that now.
Well, I got something going that's a lot better.
- You got a deal? - That's right.
- A big fat one.
- An oil deal? No, I don't even use oil in my car anymore.
Well, what is it? Well, I'll tell you about it when I'm ready.
You tell me now.
I mean, after all, you work out of the Ewing offices, you know.
Well, I'm the only Ewing it concerns.
And it's a lot better than a stinking oil business.
Oh, I see, you gonna blame the oil business.
Well, I got news for you, son.
Every business is just alike.
There's a shark in every pool of water.
Yeah, well, I can take care of myself.
J.
R: So you say.
People you'll be dealing with won't have your integrity problem.
- They'll make fish food out of you.
- Glad you have so much faith in me.
James, I want you to be a winner no matter what the game is.
And as long as you You're not gonna play the game or aren't willing to learn how to play the game you're gonna be a loser.
Hey, Blackie, let's have another drink, buddy.
You really like this place, don't you? Yeah, it's kind of my hangout.
- Is that okay? - That's fine, I like to dance.
Did Pam? I mean, did she like to dance? Yeah, she enjoyed it.
Did you go out often or were you one of those home-loving couples? BOBBY: I guess we were a little bit of both.
I bet she dressed well.
You know, I'd rather talk about you.
Do you blame me for being curious? After all, we do look so much alike.
Your personalities are very much different.
Oh, you mean I'm dull.
I didn't say that.
I think you're a lot of fun.
Can I ask you what happened to your marriage? I mean, how it broke up? Can we save this conversation for a rainy day? This is a rainy day.
Let's save it for a snowy day.
Okay.
[PEOPLE CLAPPING.]
[DOORBELL RINGING.]
Bobby.
April, I need to talk to you.
Is that all right? Of course.
My feelings for you have never changed.
I need you to understand that.
I know we had those terrible fights, but why didn't we get past them? I don't know why.
Well, let's talk about it.
- That's why you're here, isn't it? - No.
Not exactly.
April, I'm caught up in something.
And it's something I have to finish before we can start.
Does that make any sense to you? Does this have anything to do with that woman? - The one that looks like Pam? - You saw her? By accident.
There's nothing between us It's not a relationship.
But there's something going on, and I feel like I'm losing control of it.
I don't think I wanna hear this.
It's like a piece of unfinished business.
If I don't finish it, our marriage will never be what we both want it to be.
I know with the way I've been acting, I have no right to ask you this.
But I'm gonna ask anyway.
April, please wait for me.
Who do you think I am? Saint April the martyr? When you walked through that door, my heart just filled.
I thought, "Thank God, he finally came to apologize.
We can live happily ever after.
" And now I have to deal with this getting-over-Pam crap? I can't take this anymore.
I need to sort out my feelings so that when I'm with you, I can be with you a hundred percent.
Please be patient.
And try and understand.
I'm fed up with dealing with the Kay Lloyds of the world and the Pam look-a-likes.
I am the perfect woman for you.
And if you can't see that, then you are the one that's gonna lose.
April, I do see that.
I need the time.
Well, I don't have any more time.
I am gonna get on with my life.
And when we get back If we ever get back together, it's gonna be at my convenience.
That's fair.
Yeah, is Jeanne O'Brien there, please? This is Bobby Ewing calling.
Hi, Bobby, I'm Sheryl Thompson, Jeanne's best friend.
Yeah, she told me about you.
Is she in? No, she's out with a client.
Look I have a lunch appointment with Jeanne today and I'd like to cancel, can you give her that message? Funny enough, she left me a message to give you.
She also wanted to cancel lunch.
Too much work.
But she did wanna know if you could be at her house tonight.
- What time? - Nine o'clock sharp.
- Sharp? - She says it's real important.
Can you do it? Yes, tell her I'll be there.
McKAY: And what brings the lovely Miss Stevens to my office and why do I suspect it means trouble for me? I thought you loved my sharp and hungry little face.
Oh, I do.
What's on your mind? A favor.
The one you promised me during the tanker situation.
I was wondering when you'd come back with that.
- You said anything.
- I did.
You said any time.
- And now is the time? - That's right.
This better be good, Michelle.
I'll be disappointed in you if you're not clever.
Eugene Inagaki.
Oh.
You know him? I know him.
He owns some property adjacent to the West End.
I want it and he won't sell it to me.
I want you to twist his arm.
What makes you think I can get it from him? Because you're Carter McKay.
You've grown a lot since the last time we talked.
This is a major-league request.
Will you do it? Inagaki is a powerful man.
You can handle him.
It's never that easy.
So will you do it? I promised you a favor.
I always keep my promises.
Michelle.
I just hope you're going to be satisfied with the end result.
J.
R: Oh, come on, Blackie.
Too nice a day to go back down to prison.
You don't understand it.
I like it behind those bars.
Gives me a feeling of security.
To say nothing of the best pinochle game in Oklahoma.
For the fee I'm gonna pay you for finding my oil, you can buy your own prison.
Put in a wide-screen television in every cell.
I'm gonna give that money to my daughter.
I don't need it.
Ding, dang, we had a time, didn't we? Yeah, it was.
I really appreciate your help.
Eh.
It's a kick in the butt.
I enjoyed it.
Oh, and I wanna apologize for teasing you about your daddy but you were getting kind of antsy and I didn't wanna lose you.
Your daddy was a great oilman.
Maybe the greatest.
No offense taken.
You sure you don't want the Ewing jet to fly you back? Heck, no.
I enjoy the bus.
Besides, I thought I might drop in on a mutual friend of ours.
That little girl you tried to pawn off on me as my old sweetheart.
You're a strange old bird, Blackie.
I'm gonna miss you.
I'm gonna miss you too.
I want you to have this.
Well I'll see you around the yard, Junior.
See you around.
[PIANO MUSIC PLAYING.]
DUKE: This gentleman is James Beaumont.
J.
R.
Ewing's boy.
He and I are doing some business together.
Pleased to meet you.
I'm Jim Dunn, cattle and banking.
And I'm Mike Skipper, banking and cattle.
[LAUGHING.]
Good to meet you both.
Well, I'm looking forward to getting to know you gentlemen.
Maybe in time we can do some business.
Chip off the old block, isn't he? - Daddy, can I steal James for one second? - Your daddy is not through introducing me.
- Daddy, please? DUKE: Well, honey you bring him back real soon.
You sure do make a wonderful first impression.
I'm glad you think so.
Now, why don't you leave me alone? You know, it would sure be a shame if it all fell through.
Now, why would it all fall through? Duke Carlisle maybe the terror of Dallas, but I'm his little pussycat.
You'd be amazed how much influence I have over him.
One word from me, and you can kiss your big deal goodbye.
What do you have against me? - You don't get it, do you? - No.
When I aim for something, I hit it.
Dead center.
I want you in my bed, James Beaumont.
And what I want around here, I get.
No, no.
Well, I'm not some stud for hire.
Think about it, James.
How important is this deal to you, anyway? It's your choice.
Jeanne? Jeanne, your door is open.
Is anybody here? Jeanne, are you home? All right, if this is a surprise party, let me have it.
This is a surprise party.
But you're the only guest.
Well, you have my undivided attention.
That's a beautiful dress.
Does it look familiar? Yeah, as a matter of fact.
Pam had one just like it.
I spent yesterday going through old society pages.
And then I went shopping.
Why? I like her taste.
She's a good role model.
Just think, Bobby.
I can be Pam.
And you can live it all over again.
I don't want you to be Pam.
Oh, I think you do.
You just don't realize it.
This is crazy.
NARRATOR: Next on Dallas: I still love April.
I don't know why this woman has such a hold on me.
Reading his will.
His lawyer wants me there.
- Was he rich or something? CLAYTON: He was rich, all right.
- I was protecting you.
- I don't need help.
You said anything, any time.
Pull a stunt, you'll find out what fighting's about.
JEANNE: You can have Pam when you want her and have me the rest of the time.
You want a piece of me, kid? Come and get it.
You're on.
