Original subtitles

Well, that was a nice, brotherly kiss. Surprised to see me?

-Oh, yes, I�m very surprised. -I�m in trouble.

You have never been a stranger to that.

Who�s Jenna Wade? I got the feeling this morning she�s a delicate subject around me.

She and her daddy were friends of ours.

Bobby and she were particularly good friends?

We all thought they were gonna get married.

I want to know where I stand.

Why don�t you just cut some cards and roll the dice for me.

The child! Is Bobby the father of your child?

It's delicious.

What took you so long?

Well, you know I always get hungry.

-You want some? -No.

All I want is you.

You�re beautiful, Jenna.

I swear...

..l�ve never known anyone as beautiful as you..

The love scene. I�m just in time, then.

-Melissa. -Good, you remembered my name.

-Maybe you�ll also remember I'm your wife. -What are you doing here?

Your appointment to the Department of Energy.

I thought you�d like to know right away.

You�re expected for a meeting in Washington tomorrow.

What do you want?

To know what you want, Maynard.

Your appointment...

...or your lady friend?

�Anderson appointed to energy post.�

�Anderson said he hopes his intimate knowledge of the oil industry...

...will contribute to the development of a common-sense plan...

...for the conservation of present oil reserves...

...and development of new resources.�

Well, now. That�s the kind of a man we need on that job.

Somebody with a little common sense for a change.

Maynard�s on our side. Count on that.

You can count on him doing what�s best for Maynard Anderson.

We�ve been doing business together for a long time, Bobby.

He�ll stick behind us.

Maybe he�ll hire Jenna Wade to be his secretary.

Nobody likes a smart aleck, Lucy.

-Who�s Jenna Wade? -She�s remarkable, that Jenna.

The way she bounces from man...

Lucy, aren�t you late for school?

Oh, no, I got plenty of time.

Not according to my watch, you haven�t.

Come on, let�s go.

Well, somebody fill me in now. Who's Jenna Wade?

J.R., we�re getting late.

-You gonna head to the office? -Yeah. All right.

Hello?

Maynard, congratulations.

Yes, he is.

J.R.

Yes, ma�am.

Hello?

Well, speak of the devil.

J.R., I need your help.

-Why, sure, Maynard. Anything. -It�s about Jenna.

Of course.

Melissa is threatening to wreck the appointment.

I need a real favor.

-Anything you want, boy. -Keep Jenna away from me.

Okay. Give me a number.

Okay.

Don�t give it another thought.

Bye.

Now, honey, I just don't have the time to talk right now.

No, Jenna. Really, Bobby would be more than happy to see you. I�m not fooling.

I got a meeting upstairs, so why don�t we meet at the office in about, say, an hour?

All right. Good, good. See you then.

-J.R.? -I was talking to those drilling-rig people.

They took it to San Angelo instead of Austin.

You just can�t trust anybody to do anything right anymore. Let�s go.

Now, you got the notes and all that stuff? All right, all right.

More coffee, Miss Ellie?

No. Just put the pot there.

Good morning.

Want some coffee, Pam?

Oh, thank you, no. I don�t want to be late for my big date with Bobby.

Ranch life takes a little getting used to.

It sure does.

You know, after you have breakfast, there�s not a whole lot to do.

I�m beginning to understand why Sue Ellen keeps so busy with her luncheons.

Miss Ellie...

...who�s Jenna Wade?

I got the feeling this morning she�s a delicate subject around me.

She and her daddy were friends of ours quite a few years ago.

And Bobby and she were particularly good friends?

For a while, we all thought they were gonna get married.

-Jock! -Well, hell, nothing came of it, Ellie.

Like Ellie said, it was quite a while back.

Right. A while back.

Why, I�ve got better things to do than worry about old girlfriends. Bye-bye.

Jock, you never were one for subtlety.

Well, I never did see anything wrong with Bobby marrying Jenna Wade anyway.

Well, Pam is a lovely girl.

Well, sure she is...

...but at least Jenna�s not Digger Barnes� daughter.

-I guess I can be thankful for something. -What?

That you didn�t have me emptying ashtrays and fetching coffee for you.

Well, now, what�s that supposed to mean?

It means, J.R., that I�m a member of Ewing Oil too...

...and I was supposed to be a member of that negotiation...

Oh, Bobby, Ferguson's a banker, you know.

Come on, he�s younger than I am. What�s wrong with him negotiating with me?

Well, fine. Next time, you�ll just drive the interest rate up another quarter of a point.

Bobby? Bobby!

-Now, who can that be? -Bobby!

I�ll take your briefcase upstairs for you.

-Hello. -Hi. Don�t I get a kiss?

Well, that was a nice, brotherly kiss.

-You surprised to see me? -Oh, yes, I�m very surprised.

I�m in trouble.

Well, you have never been a stranger to that.

Bobby, don�t be mean. I need your advice.

Please.

Scoot over.

He kicks you out, and you come to me to help?

Yes.

Why did you ever get involved with Maynard Anderson?

It was real easy. He was there.

Wonderful.

My, my. Marriage certainly has changed you. The Bobby Ewing I used to know...

Has nothing to do with what we�re talking about right now.

Have you forgotten who introduced me to the good life, to the dizzy pace?

And offered you an alternative to it.

That�s wonderful.

�Here you are, little girl. Champagne...

...private jets to Paris...

...yachts in Rio...

...and just when you�ve learned to love it all...

...let me take you away from it.�

I never meant to take you away from it.

I see.

Tell me, the present Mrs. Ewing, does she share that dizzy life with you...

...or is she tucked away with all the other Ewing possessions...

...out on Southfork Ranch?

Bobby.

I was so young. I was having the time of my life!

And then, when Daddy died and I found out that estate...

...was really just a vast collection of unpaid bills and judgments...

You did all right with what you had.

I couldn�t come back to you...

...not after running off with Naldo.

And then there was Charlie to think about.

I couldn�t let her suffer because daddy had been wild, because I�d been wild.

So when Maynard came along...

...he was just what I needed.

He was good to Charlie and to me.

So good, in fact, that you have $200 in your pocket and no place to live.

You could�ve come to me...

...the way I felt about you.

I�m coming to you now.

What about the condominium? That must be worth something.

It was paid for with corporate funds.

His wife says she�ll sabotage the appointment if I don�t give it back.

Why do you care about that now?

He was good to me.

Find a place to live.

I'll pay until you can take care of it yourself.

Thank you.

And find a job, Jenna.

Figure out what you want to do, and I�ll help.

It�s probably for the best anyway.

It's about time I learned to stand on my own feet.

I�ll do good, Bobby.

I promise I will.

Good morning, Ewing Oil.

Yes, can you hold just a moment? Thank you.

Good morning, Ewing Oil.

When you�re finished with that, I�d like to talk to you a minute.

I just finished it.

I�ve been looking over this oil-depletion allowance bill coming up in the Senate.

We got a couple old boys down there we gotta contact.

-Charlie Baker? -Yeah. Hello?

Okay, put her on. Jenna Wade.

-Yeah, Jenna. -Bobby, I found a place that�ll do just fine.

It's Charlie's school district.

What do I have to do?

-Just sign the lease. -When?

Can you meet me over there right away? The landlady�s breathing down my neck.

Give me the address.

7224 West Houston.

This shouldn�t take too long.

Oh, take all the time you want, Bob. We can get at it another day.

I�ll be right there.

-Bye. -Okay.

Good morning, Ewing Oil.

Yes, I'll connect you.

Good morning, Mrs. Ewing.

-Is Bobby busy? -He just left. Was he expecting you?

-I guess I�m a little early. -Pam, how you doing? Bobby just left.

Come on in the office, I wanna talk to you a minute.

Nice little plant, isn�t it?

I raised this thing since it was that big.

They say it�s gonna be a palm 60 feet high. Well, at least that�s what they say.

-That�s nice. -Yeah.

Do you happen to know where Bobby went?

He ran off to sign some papers for Jenna Wade, something about an apartment.

That's a name I seem to be hearing a lot of suddenly.

Yeah, well, I wouldn�t.... I wouldn�t read much into all of that.

-All what? -The thing between Jenna and Bobby...

...it�s been over some years now.

J.R., are you trying to comfort me?

-He didn�t tell you about her? -No, he didn�t tell me...

...but the rest of the Ewings can�t wait.

Well, I was just trying to help, you know.

I�m sure you are.

If I can give him a message when I see him...

I can handle that. Thank you.

Well, I was just trying to help. I....

Dinner ready? I�m hungry. Bobby not home? Well, that�s funny.

I�m sure he�d understand if we started without him.

Well, we don�t mind waiting, Pamela.

What the devil�s keeping him?

Jenna Wade, I suspect.

-J.R. -Well, she called him from the office.

I think that her little affair with old Maynard Anderson�s pretty well over, I suspect.

Kind of hard to keep a mistress and hold public office at the same time nowadays.

I�ve never known Jenna to show up and not cause trouble.

She broke her father�s heart when she had that child, didn�t she?

He lost interest in the business and was ruined.

Well, Lucas Wade never was any good at business.

Took his daddy�s money and just threw it away.

Jenna had nothing to do with it.

I�ll get it.

Hello?

Just a minute.

It�s Bobby.

Hello?

I know, Bobby, I went to the office.

I think you probably should come home so we can talk about it.

All right. Goodbye.

Bobby�s been delayed.

Why don�t we have dinner.

You are a very sound sleeper.

You hardly even woke up when I came in last night.

I�m usually asleep after midnight.

Oh, honey, I know it was late, but she�s an old friend.

What did your old friend want that took so long?

If you would�ve asked me last night, I would�ve told you.

If I�d asked you last night, I might�ve said some things I shouldn�t have.

Why don�t you tell me about it now.

Honey, she needed help moving some things, and so I helped.

That�s very nice of you.

I told you, we�ve been friends since we were kids.

-I used to be in love with her. -Used to be?

Hello?

Yes, he is. Who�s calling?

Just a minute.

It�s for you.

Hello?

No, Jenna, it�s fine. It�s all right.

Where?

Okay, fine. See you then.

What now, a spider in her tub?

Anderson wants her to get out of town.

Hey, let�s hear it for Anderson.

Honey, Dallas is her home.

The few friends she has are here. There�s no reason she should have to leave.

Are you going over there, Bobby?

I told her I�d meet her at noon.

Why don�t you come with me.

Why don�t I.

I�m sorry to drag you way over here. It�s my day as class mother.

It�s okay. I�m sorry, Jenna Wade, my wife, Pamela.

Hello, Jenna. Bobby�s told me so much. I wanted to meet you.

Well, I�ve been curious about you too.

Now, what�s all this about Anderson? I thought it was all settled.

Well, don�t ask me how, but his wife found out where I moved.

She doesn't like it.

I�m too visible to her and too big a temptation to him.

Bobby, I don�t want to leave Dallas. This is home for Charlie and me.

Charlie�s my little girl.

Besides, Bobby said he�d help me get work here.

Mama, will you hold Jewel?

Honey, why don�t you say hello to Bobby and to Mrs. Ewing?

-Hello, Charlie. -Hi.

-What a pretty doll. May I see it? -Sure.

Thank you.

-Hi, Charlie. -Hi.

-How you doing? -Fine.

-Okay. We�ll see you later, okay? -Bye.

Bye.

She�s happy here.

What do you think will happen if I stay?

-Nothing. -Are you kidding?

Melissa Anderson lives and breathes revenge, and she�s a powerful lady.

What more can she do to you?

-She could slam a lot of doors in my face. -Any door she closes, I�ll open up.

-You mean it? I can count on you? -I told you, you could.

Oh, that�s the bell. I gotta go.

Thanks. I�m grateful. To both of you.

-Bye. -Bye-bye.

-Nice to meet you. -Nice meeting you, Jenna.

Okay, come on. Time to go in.

It must be hot out, Maynard. You�re sweating.

It�s hot, all right, and I don�t mean the temperature outside.

Come on, now. I never let you down yet, have I?

Well, this would be the wrong time to start.

-Mr. Ewing. -Thank you.

Come on, have a drink, or have you given that up too?

-All right. I�ll have the usual. -Very good, Mr. Anderson.

-We�ll order later. -Fine.

J.R...

...I thought you were going to do something about Jenna.

When Daddy gets here, I don�t want any discussion of Jenna in front of him.

You know, I don�t mind telling you that Melissa is really on my back.

She wants Jenna long gone from the state of Texas.

She says it�s an embarrassment to have her still here.

Well, it�s already in the works.

Bobby and Jenna are getting along just fine. He didn't come in till dawn this morning.

I thought that�d please you.

-Thank you. -Thank you, darling.

You know, I...

I really love Jenna.

Oh, now, that�s it, isn�t it?

It�s not your wife.

It�s Bobby and Jenna.

He's a young, good-looking stud with a beautiful wife.

He�s got more than his share.

Maynard, you�re sounding like a lovesick schoolboy.

You gonna put your career on the line for her?

J.R., it would�ve been a lot better if you�d have got her out of town.

Maynard, let me do the thinking.

It�s always worked out best for both of us.

-There�s Jock. -J.R.

-Maynar. -Mr. Ewing.

Well, it looks like you boys are planning on drinking your lunch.

Of course, I can understand Maynard wanting to tie one on.

I hear...

...Melissa caught you in the kip with Jenna Wade.

Yeah, well...

...that, sir, is not the way it happened.

I bet, by now, she�s really got you on the end of a string.

A bit.

Well, I wanna tell you, in my day, we handled our women a little bit ditterent.

Where�s the waiter? I need a drink.

Darling, a double bourbon, please. Thank you.

Mama, I�ve looked for Jewel all over.

Well, honey, she�ll turn up. Everything�s in such a mess right now.

But we�ll find her. Why don�t you go back and play, and we�ll look for her later, okay?

-Okay. -Okay.

-Well, hello, Jenna. -J.R.

-Mind if I come in? -It�s a mess.

Oh, that�s all right. I know you�re just moving in.

Well.

Yes, this is nice.

Very nice. Bobby set you up with this?

-Yes. -Mind if I have a drink?

-There�s no ice. -Oh, that�s all right. I�ll survive.

Yeah, nice place.

Well, Bobby was never one to be known as being cheap, you know.

As soon as I get work, I�ll pay for it myself.

Come on, you were never cut out for work.

I always thought it was a shame you and Bobby never got married.

It would be nice having you within reach.

-Bobby and I were over a long time ago. -You know what?

I don�t think he ever got over you.

He seems happy enough to me.

Oh, yeah, Pam�s a fine woman...

...but he is a Ewing, and he likes to work hard and play hard.

And she has a bit of her brother in her, that reform mentality...

...and I don�t think Bobby wants to be reformed.

J.R., I don�t buy that.

I get the feeling you�re trying to use me to break them up.

Well, if we both profit, so much the better.

And you do hold the high card.

I�m surprised you haven�t played it yet.

What are you talking about?

You have Bobby�s child. He�d never turn his back on that.

Yes, is Bobby Ewing in, please?

She�s a little upset. She lost her favorite doll today.

I guess we�re both a little upset.

I�m sorry about this...

...the way I keep calling you.

Just tell me what�s wrong.

I�ve been thinking.

Maybe I should leave Dallas, after all.

-Is Anderson still bothering you? -No, it�s not Maynard.

What is it?

It�s you.

Please, Jenna, don�t start that now.

Seeing you again...

...watching the way you look at Charlie.

I don�t know. I started to realize that maybe I haven�t been very fair to her.

I asked you once, a long time ago, if she were mine.

Look, let�s not get into that, okay?

That�s what you�re getting into, isn�t it?

Maybe. I don�t know.

You never gave me a straight answer.

You didn�t seem too anxious to know at the time.

Well, I�m asking you now.

Do you still love me?

I�m married, Jenna. I love my wife.

That�s not what I asked.

I loved you, once. Very much.

I wanted to marry you. I asked. You ran off with somebody.

-It was complicated. -Not to me.

It was a question of being in in love or not in love.

Bobby, I did love you...

...but I�d known you all my life.

At the time, I thought I wanted excitement more than love...

...and I just thought you would always be there when I was ready.

This is one hell of a time to bring it up.

Well, what would be a good time?

Tomorrow?

Next week?

Ever?

Forget it. You�re right.

You�re right. I�m sorry.

Bobby?

-How you doing? -I�ve been better.

I think we ought to talk about it.

Honey, I don�t know what to say.

Why don�t you tell me what�s bothering you.

I don't like being alone in our bed, Bobby.

Lately, I have been, even when you�re there.

You�ve never complained about it before.

I�ve never had any reason to, now, have I?

Honey...

...there�s more to it than that.

I know. That�s what worries me.

Ever since Charlie and Jenna showed up, our lives haven�t been the same.

Why does everything have to come down to Charlie and Jenna?

Because we have a problem...

...and I think they�re it.

We�ll work it out.

Sure.

Bobby. What are you doing here?

I seem to have driven off with Charlie�s doll yesterday.

Oh, good. She�ll be so glad to get it back.

See you, okay?

Are you heading downtown?

Yes I am, why?

Well, my car�s in the shop.

I promised Charlie I�d buy her some things today.

I put her in a dress this morning and couldn�t even get it buttoned.

I�d appreciate a ride.

Sure. Come on. You got enough money?

Yeah.

-Sure you do. Come on. -Oh, wait a minute. I�ll get the door.

We�re downtown. I should be back by 5.

So much for our third party.

I don�t know where he is. I called the office. They haven�t seen him.

He's out stealing from widows and orphans.

Don�t be silly.

That�s on Mondays.

It�s all right, because it was you I wanted to talk to anyway.

Well, I�d like you and Bobby to be friends.

Oh, all right. What�s the big news?

-I�m going to run for the state Senate. -You�re what?

Glen Cochran died.

That�s probably the first decent thing he�s ever done for taxpayers.

And that leaves the race for his seat wide open.

-That�s... That�s wonderful! So soon! -Yeah.

I�m not ready to announce it, because I�ve got to have an organization and money.

You�ve got enough charm to raise anything.

The Ewings will probably back Slade, so that�s trouble.

Yeah. You can count on trouble.

-I�m gonna need your help. -You can count on that too.

It�d be good for you. Get you away from that ranch all the time.

Excuse me. I�ve got lots of calls to make, lots of calls. Okay?

-Okay. -Gonna need you.

Thank you.

I�m proud of you!

Sorry to miss you at lunch.

Hi, I�m Cliff Barnes.

I�m sorry, Jenna Wade, Cliff Barnes.

-Bobby�s brother-in-law. -Yes.

Pam's brother. Can I help you with your packages?

No, thank you. They�re not heavy.

-How�s Digger? -He�s horizontal, as usual.

That�s Pam�s and my father. He�s a drunk.

Had a little run-in with the Ewings.

My, you�re a pretty lady, Miss Wade.

If you ever need an honest attorney, I�m in the book.

Bobby, you�re getting more like J.R. every day.

Have a good day.

Let�s go.

Hello.

I�m sorry about lunch, Pamela.

-Have a good day? -Not bad.

Would you like to tell me how you spent it?

Do you want it minute by minute, hour by hour, or just big, broad strokes?

How about second by second?

You haven�t made it for dinner most of this week.

Your office didn�t even know where you were.

-Charlie needed some things. -I bet she did.

-This can�t go on, Bobby. -There is nothing going on.

I�m tired of explaining that.

What you�re explaining and what I�m seeing are two different things.

I can�t even talk to you anymore. You�re so twisted with jealousy.

That�s not true! You know that�s not true!

Bobby, if it�s the child... If she is your child...

...we can work something out. Other people do.

I wouldn�t ask you to run out.

Just what are you asking?

That you not spend every day with Jenna.

That you come home to me each day because you want to.

God, Bobby, I need you.

But if you can�t stay away from her, stay away from me.

Is that the way you want it?

Fine.

-Where�s Bobby? -I don�t know.

-He�s probably with Jenna. -You�re taking it well.

You think so?

Doesn�t show, then.

It�s awful watching somebody you love slide away.

Bobby's known Jenna a lot longer and a lot of different ways...

...but I could handle Jenna.

It�s the little girl that worries me.

The child could tip it.

There, I may be outmatched, Miss Ellie.

If you take that attitude, you are.

Jenna was never stoical about anything in her life.

When she goes down, she goes down kicking and screaming.

I don�t think kicking and screaming would help.

I knew a woman once.

Her man couldn�t decide whether or not to do right by her.

So she took a horsewhip to him.

Helped him make up his mind fast.

I don�t think a horsewhip would work with Bobby.

I don�t see why not. Worked on his daddy all right.

Miss Ellie...

Of course...

...I really wanted his daddy.

I really want Bobby.

Then go get him.

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

Seems to be my night for nobody wanting me around.

You buy me a drink?

-Sure. -Thank you.

-You? -No, thanks.

Thank you.

You want to tell me about it now?

We have some unfinished business.

Couldn�t wait till morning?

-Why, are you expecting somebody? -No, damn it, I just wanna get my hair dry.

I forgot how vain you are.

And I forgot how jealous you are.

-You gave me just cause. -Only once.

Once was enough.

We were just kids then.

Yes, that�s right. We were just kids then, that makes all the difference.

Now I have Pamela.

And I have Charlie.

Do I have Charlie too?

I was enough for you once.

Yes, you were. Once.

Let me go dry my hair, okay?

-Evening, Daddy. -Hello, Junior.

Seems you been mighty pleased with yourself lately.

Yes, sir. Things are going real well.

I talked to Anderson about that pipeline deal.

Always looking after the Ewing interest.

Business interest or family interest?

I don�t separate them.

That little ruckus between your brother and his wife...

...smells like you might have had something to do with that.

No, sir. Not me.

Rumor has it Pam�s brother is running for Senate.

Well, we�ll take care of that when the time comes.

Meanwhile...

...you leave Bobby and Pam alone, you hear?

Daddy, you been fighting Bobby�s battles all his life.

When will you let him grow up? If his marriage is bad...

...I don�t see any sense in you wasting your time saving it.

-Good night, sir. -Night, Junior.

-Well. -I was afraid you might have left.

Without saying goodbye? No.

You want to buy me a drink?

Sure. Come on.

Straight bourbon?

I hope my timing�s good.

Perfect. Come on in.

-Pamela, you shouldn�t have come here. -Where should I be?

Sitting at home waiting for you?

You two obviously want to talk.

I�d offer to leave, but it is my apartment.

-Is it? -Yes, Pamela, it is.

All right. Well, let�s find out what else around here is hers.

I�ve got a little girl asleep in there.

Jenna, I have no intention of making a scene. Do you?

No? Well, then, let�s talk.

I want to know where I stand...

...where you stand, where we all stand, and I want to know tonight.

Well, tonight�s just as good a time as any, I suppose.

All right. I love Bobby, and I want him.

-What do you want? -Bobby.

Bobby, or a husband and a father for your child, some security?

With Bobby, I get them all.

I�d prefer you got it with somebody else.

Why don�t you just cut a deck of cards and roll the dice for me.

Come on, Bobby...

...let�s get down to basics. The child!

Is Bobby the father of your child?

Because if he is, he�ll do something about it.

But it doesn�t mean he�s going to leave me for you.

Come on, Jenna, surely you know! Is Bobby the father?

-I never said he was! -Is he?

No.

That makes things a little more simple.

Then it�s between you and me.

Only you can answer that, Bobby.

Mommy! Mommy!

Come here, come here. It�s all right.

It�s been a rough few days for her.

Why didn�t you lie?

I can�t.

Never could. Even J.R. should�ve known that.

J.R.? What about J.R.?

Oh, he called.

Said he knew Bobby would wanna see me, wanna help out.

And in a way, he was right.

The lease to the apartment, signed over to my name.

And a check for a year�s rent.

A goodbye present from Bobby.

I hope you don�t mind.

Well, I do.

But that�s my problem.

Are you waiting for me or to go back inside?

What do you think?

I only did what I did because I love you, Bobby.

I don�t want to lose you.

You wouldn�t have lost me, Pamela. I made up my mind before you ever came in.

I didn�t know that then.

Well, you know it now.

I saw the check and the lease.

I love you more than anything, and nothing can change that.

Oh, I needed to hear that so much.

Then let�s go home.
