Original subtitles

Kristin, what are you trying to do? Kill me?

You know my name!

She is my sister, j.r.,

And I don't want you to use her as a pawn

In one of your silly little games.

You know, you've had a remarkable effect

On my brother.

You know, he hasn't wanted to admit it, but...

His marriage is over. It's just flat finished.

It's time you faced up to some facts.

Nobody is perfect.

Not me, and not your brother.

It's time you grew up, Pamela.

Bobby, what's the matter?

You look so unhappy.

Lucy: granddaddy?

Granddaddy... just a minute, lucy.

Forget it.

What's the matter, lucy?

I might as well be invisible,

For all the attention I get from him.

Oh, I don't believe it.

Little devil has done it to me again.

Twice in a row she's won.

I told you I was good.

All right, Bobby. You take over.

See if you can do any better than I can.

10 cents a point?

Greedy little bugger, isn't she?

Thank you, kristin, but not tonight.

Well, I'll... I'll give you a go.

10 cents a point, huh?

Well, a girl's gotta think about her future.

You know, I'm really glad

I asked kristin to come out here.

She really adds some color to this place.

You know, j.r.,

I've got it all figured out.

What's that?

What you're up to.

Now, why is it everybody always thinks

I'm up to something, huh? Explain that to me.

If you thought there was any way in the world

You could get away with it,

I think you'd dare seduce my baby sister.

Well...

I've underestimated you, sue ellen.

I've never given you proper credit

For your colorful imagination. Ha ha.

But since you know

That not even I'd put up with anything like that,

You decided to throw her to Bobby.

Just one more little wedge between Pamela and him.

Well... I'm not takin' the responsibility

For nature takin' its course.

I can't do that, can I?

I guess not.

Night, honey.

You know, I could spend the rest of my life here,

Sue ellen, instead of a few days visiting you.

No matter what mama says, kristin,

Money is not the most important thing

In the world.

That isn't what you used to think.

Well, I thought I could save you

From repeatin' my mistakes.

This is a mistake?

I might have made other choices...

Choices that would have made me happier.

You don't have to worry about me, sue ellen.

I'll be very happy.

Happy and rich.

You don't like me very much, do you?

Why? What have I ever done to you?

You didn't have to do anything.

You were there.

"Look how pretty your sister is, kristin.

"Look how well-behaved she is.

"Why can't you be well-behaved like that?

"No, you can't have a new dress, kristin.

"We'll just makeover one of sue ellen's.

It'll be just fine."

No one paid any attention to me

Until after you married j.r.

That's not true, kristin.

Oh, yes, it is.

I remember it very well, sue ellen,

And I'm not playing second fiddle to you anymore.

I'm not gonna be second best.

I'm gonna get everything you've got

And more... Much more.

What about Bobby and Pamela?

Do you... Do you think they'll get back together?

Why?

Just curious.

Sue ellen, Dr. Danvers is on the telephone for you.

Let me help you up.

Thank you, lucy.

Can you make it?

I think so. I'll be right back.

Well, I wonder what j.r. Was up to

When he asked you to stay here.

He was just tryin' to be nice.

He knew I'd be bored to death

In Santa Fe with mama.

J.r. Is never nice.

Well, if you'll excuse me,

I'm gonna go work on a suntan for the prom.

Hello?

Man: sue ellen?

You? I thought it was Dr. Danvers.

I lied. I need to talk to you.

Cliff, what if your phone's...

If my phone is bugged?

No. No, not this one. Don't worry.

I thought you didn't want us to talk anymore.

I need some information.

Oh.

No, I don't need facts and figures.

No, I can get that.

I just need to know how important

The paloseco field is to j.r.

You know he never talks to me about business.

I thought you might have heard

Something in conversation.

Cliff...

I need it. I need that information.

At dinner the other night,

Jock told him that he wanted...

To tie up the leases in that field

As fast as possible.

There'd been enough time wasted and money.

If the field is important to daddy...

Then it's important to j.r.

Thank you.

Cliff, wait.

Sue ellen, what did the doctor say?

You look terrible.

Nothing.

Nothing important.

We have to stop meeting like this.

Hi.

I mean it.

I feel like I'm having a clandestine affair

With my own wife. I'm not enjoying it.

I know.

Maybe we should stop meeting...

I'd love to see you,

But we haven't resolved anything.

It can resolve itself in a minute, Pamela.

You could come home.

If you were Bobby Smith or Bobby Jones,

I would in a minute.

That's one wish

The ewing money can't Grant you.

Oh, I love you, Bobby.

If I didn't believe that, Pamela,

I wouldn't be here.

But I can't love the ewing family.

They destroyed my father,

And now they're trying to destroy my brother.

Pamela... The feuding has got to stop,

And it can stop with us.

I thought it would when I married you,

But it's worse than it's ever been.

It takes time, honey.

You've got to give it time.

Bobby...

Please don't make this any harder for me

Than it already is.

I just don't know what I'm going to do.

Come on. I'll buy you lunch.

Oh, yeah.

They'll sink a well here, I reckon.

I'm telling you, wally,

You got ewing oil over a barrel.

'cause the way the law works,

If you don't give 'em your lease,

Why, all the leases they hold don't mean a thing.

They can't drill the whole paloseco field.

Well... You know what kind of weather

We had here last year.

I barely salvaged half the crop.

Fact is...

I need lease money to keep this place.

They know that.

That's why they're only offerin' you 10,000 cash,

Plus 15% royalties.

That's not enough. That's peanuts.

You think I want to accept?

But I don't have a choice.

If I don't agree, they go to arbitration,

And then the office of land management

Forces me to let them drill.

Not while I'm in control,

Or a lease anyway for a fair price.

Look, wally, you got a chance

To beat the ewings at their own game.

And maybe if you hold out,

Some of the other farmers will start holdin' out

For a fair price from now on.

Meanwhile, what do I do for cash?

Well, suppose I get digger

To buy a half share of any future royalties.

That should give you enough to hold out for a while.

Digger?

Well, yeah. It can't be me

Because it'd be a conflict of interest.

Cliff, I've know you

Since you were a little boy.

You've been my lawyer

Ever since you got out of school...

And you can't fool me.

OK. I read the o.l.m. Report on this field.

It's expected to be a big one.

Every day the ewings can't drill here,

It costs them a small fortune.

So maybe miracles do happen.

Maybe they'll go broke before they can start drilling.

Wouldn't that be a day?

Well, if not, maybe we can get the royalties boosted.

Be nice for digger

To make some good money off of it, too.

Maybe the Barnes family can win for a change.

Have we got a deal?

You come up with the cash pronto,

And you got yourself a deal!

Ellie: Bobby, did you speak to pam today?

Bobby: yes, I did, mama.

I don't think she's comin' home yet.

Thank you. Thank you.

Jock: j.r. Sir...

Did you get that lease from kessel yet?

Oh, it's just a matter of days now.

He's got a mortgage payment due.

No money. He'll settle.

Jock: well, he better.

If we don't start drilling that well soon,

It could cost us.

Well, not if we're payin' him

The 25% royalties he's askin' for.

I expect a pretty good yield on that deal.

He's been raising his price again, has he?

The old buzzard.

I have an idea cliff Barnes is behind this.

Bobby: there's no sense lookin' for a Barnes

Under every problem we ewings have, j.r.

Well, he was his lawyer for years.

Well, he's not anymore,

Not since he joined the o.l.m.

He had to stop his private practice.

Doesn't make any difference who's buying it

As long as we get that lease.

Take care of it, j.r.

Yes, sir.

The less we have to do with the barneses,

The better I like it.

Well, that's gonna be real difficult, j.r.,

Because I happen to be married to a Barnes,

And I intend to stay married.

Are you crazy?

Now, where am I gonna get that kind of money?

Out of your checking account. Where else?

$10,000? Have you lost your mind?

Look, I could only scrape up 15.

Digger needs the rest from you.

It's only a loan.

Well...

I don't want to ask Bobby for any money now.

Why? He didn't close your account

When you moved out, did he?

Of course not! Bobby's not like that.

He's a ewing, isn't he?

Money is not the single most important thing

In his life, if that's what you mean.

Now, I don't want to ask him

For money right now...

Or can't you understand that?

What I understand is that you don't want

To help your father out of the gutter...

Permanently.

That's not fair, cliff.

Fair? Don't talk to me about fair.

The ewing fortune was founded on digger's skill.

Without him, they wouldn't have a penny,

And now they're worth millions.

You call that fair?

Pam, look, once they start drilling,

Digger won't have to worry about money

For as long as he lives.

Why did digger send you?

Why didn't he come and ask me himself?

He doesn't know anything about it...

Because we can't find him.

'cause we don't know

Where he is in California.

Pam, he needs that money,

And he needs it quickly. He needs it now.

If we don't get it to him,

He'll find it someplace else...

And digger loses... Again.

Pam...

All right. I'll call Bobby.

Good girl.

Connie. This is pam ewing.

Is Bobby there?

Well, when he gets back,

Would you tell him I called,

And it's really important?

Thank you. Bye-bye.

Well, he's not there.

That doesn't mean

You're gonna back out on me, does it?

No, I'm not, cliff.

Good. Because listen, I mean it.

As soon as they start drilling,

You get all your money back.

It's just a loan.

We go to the bank?

Bobby: that's what you wanted to talk about?

That's what was so important?

Well, it's a lot of money, Bobby.

It's a short-term loan, though,

And as soon as they start drilling,

Digger can pay you back.

It's a big chance for him.

How many times do I have to tell you?

I don't care how much money you lend your father.

I know, or I wouldn't have done it.

The only thing I mind is what this is doin' to us.

Don't worry about the money.

It's not important.

Hmm.

You know somethin'?

Right now you look just like your sister.

Do I? Nobody's ever told me that before.

Kristin, what are you trying to do? Kill me?

You know my name!

I was beginning to think that I was as invisible

As sue ellen always makes me feel.

Oh, come on, I get the impression

Your sister thinks you're pretty terrific.

You really think so?

I've always admired sue ellen...

The way she looks, the way she acts.

Sometimes I'm mean to her,

But that's only because it's not always easy

Being the ugly duckling in the family.

Nah.

You look like a drowned rat.

Come on, I'll race you. Get going.

Ha ha.

First time in weeks I've heard Bobby laugh.

She is my sister, j.r.,

And I don't want you to use her

As a pawn in one of your silly little games.

It's a little bit early in the day for you

To start imagining things, isn't it?

You haven't started drinkin' already,

Have you?

Come on. Get out. Out.

Here, let me help you.

Hey, Bobby.

She's not too bad.

I only beat her by a lap.

Not too bad at all.

Kristin always has been exceptional

At sports, j.r.

Really? Well, now,

Maybe if we put you in training,

You might be able to beat him after all.

Say, uh...

What... What are your plans for the day?

I haven't decided yet.

Well, I think if you play your cards right,

You might be able to talk Bobby

Into driving you into Dallas.

A lot of really nice architecture there.

Everyone's certainly up early this morning.

Jock: mornin', j.r.

Enjoyin' yourself, kristin?

Sure looks like it.

I'm having a wonderful time.

It's the most beautiful place I've ever seen.

I never want to leave.

You better get something dry on.

Let's eat, j.r.

Miss ellie and I have a meeting

At the daughters of the alamo

At marilee stone's today.

I'm really sorry, kristin.

I was, um, hopin'

We could spend that time together.

Oh, it's all right.

I'll find some way to entertain myself.

Kristin, um...

I don't know how to ask you this exactly.

You don't have to be polite.

Just try it straight out.

Are you interested in Bobby?

Why do you ask that?

Well, I'm not a fool.

I can see the way you look at him.

But you're wasting your time, kristin,

Because he's in love with Pamela.

Are your worried that I might get

Into your social limelight?

You are my sister.

I keep telling you, sue ellen,

I know exactly what I'm going to do with my life,

And being hurt is just not part of the plan.

Kristin: BOBBY?

Did j.r. Leave yet?

Couple of minutes ago. Why?

Oh, damn.

What's the matter?

Well, your mom and sue ellen went to a meeting,

And lucy's in school.

I thought maybe I could

Hitch a ride with j.r. Into Dallas.

You know, see some buildings,

Or maybe take a bus to Fort Worth

And go to the museum.

Come on. Get in. Oh, thanks.

I really didn't want

To spend the day here by myself.

You're sure you're not gonna be bored.

Bored? 'course not.

I do this whenever I can.

You do? Oh, sure.

The kimbell museum is really beautiful, isn't it?

I mean, I'm a great fan of louis Khan and I.m. Pei.

Have you seen the new wing at the national gallery yet?

So you're really interested in architecture.

Oh, absolutely.

I've always been interested in it.

In fact, I'm gonna start southern cal in the fall,

If I don't find a husband first.

My mother thinks

That studying architecture is a waste of time.

She thinks that I should get married

And live happily ever after, just like sue ellen.

And you don't want to get married.

No, of course I want to get married,

But... Depending on the man, of course.

I mean...

I don't want to settle for just anyone.

Well, I don't think

You're gonna have to settle for just anyone.

You're sure this is OK?

This is fine.

OK. You get to the office by 5:00,

You'll find somebody to take you home.

OK, I will.

Don't forget you promised to show me

The plans for that building.

When I have time.

The final installment...

A cashier's check for $10,000.

That's fast work, cliff.

If you don't mind my asking...

Where'd you get it?

My sister Pamela.

She lent it to my daddy.

Pamela.

You're using ewing money to get the ewings.

Ooh, I gotta hand it to you, boy...

You sure did grow up devious.

No. That's just a recent development.

You want to sign these?

Do I want to sign 'em!

Yes?

Receptionist: SETH stone callin' you.

Put him on. Hello.

Seth: j.r., listen, I think

I got to the bottom of the trouble

We've been havin' with kessel and that lease.

Yeah?

You're not gonna like this, j.r.

It seems your sister-in-law Pamela's

Come up with that money kessel needed.

Note on the, uh, irrigation

Of section 20 of southfork:

Purchase 14 gross

Of galvanized 100-foot section,

Uh, coupling locks, pipes... Ver...

Oh, what can I do for you, j.r.?

I just had a very interesting conversation

With seth stone.

Oh?

About the kessel lease?

It seems he's come up with the money

To meet his mortgage payment... And then some.

And he won't settle

Unless we agree to pay him 25% royalties.

Well, what'd you want to pay?

15. That's too low, j.r.

No wonder he wouldn't sell.

Well, I know that, but he would've had to

If he hadn't come up with that cash.

Now, the interesting thing is,

You know where he got that money?

Why are you talkin' to me? I'm out of ewing oil.

It came from Pamela Barnes ewing.

What are you talkin' about?

A cashier's check in the amount of $10,000

Drawn from your joint checking account.

She didn't know ewing oil was involved.

Oh, come on, Bobby, hand me another one.

Cliff asked her for money

So that digger could buy into an oil field.

Now, she didn't know ewings were after it.

You knew about it?

I knew she wanted to give the money to digger, yeah.

Do you have any idea

How much your wife is costing us?

Come on, j.r.

It could be millions of dollars.

We can't even begin drillin' in that field

Until we get that lease.

I know. I'll take care of it.

Well, do that... And fast,

'cause we need that lease right now, I tell you!

Where's cliff?

I told you he wasn't in, mr. Ewing.

I'm not expecting him

For the rest of the afternoon.

When he gets back,

You tell him I want to talk to him.

Yes, sir.

Excuse me. Is Bobby ewing here?

No, I'm sorry. He's left for the day.

Say, kristin.

What on earth are you doin' here, darlin'?

I hope I'm not too late for a ride home.

Bobby said I wouldn't be if I got here by 5:00.

Well, Bobby's not here right now,

But I'd be delighted to drive you home myself.

Come on in my office.

Just, uh... Let me get

A few things cleaned up here,

And, uh... I'll just be a minute.

You know, you've had

A remarkable effect on my brother.

I have?

Oh, yeah.

He was more cheerful this morning

Than I've seen him in weeks.

Well, I don't think

You can hold me responsible for that.

But I do. I definitely do.

You know, he hasn't wanted to admit it,

But... His marriage is over.

It's just about finished.

And I think that today

He finally accepted that fact.

Bobby: Pamela!

Hi.

You know that money you gave digger?

Well, Bobby, he'll pay you back.

That's not the problem.

Cliff used that money to stop a ewing project.

What?

Kessel's farm is part of the paloseco oil field.

Ewing's been trying to tie up the leases

On that field for over 2 years,

And kessel was the last holdout.

Without his lease,

We don't drill for anything,

And it costs us millions.

Bobby, I didn't know...

I mean, no, cliff doesn't know.

You know, he knows how I feel about you.

He wouldn't do anything to hurt you.

He knew, Pamela.

There's no way he couldn't have known.

As head of the o.l.m.,

He had to see those reports.

He's been kessel's lawyer for years!

Cliff wouldn't do that to me.

What is it about you, Pamela?

You think that my family is capable

Of any kind of double dealing, that I am, too.

And yet your precious brother,

He's capable of doing no wrong, is that right?

That's not what I said.

It's time you faced up to some facts.

Nobody is perfect.

Not me, and not your brother.

It's time you grew up, Pamela.

I did go over to see cliff Barnes,

And he wasn't in.

We can nail him on this...

Conflict of interest.

J.r., you don't have any hard proof.

And kessel won't talk.

He and digger go way back.

Yeah, and there's always my esteemed sister-in-law.

I wouldn't ask her to turn in her brother,

And she wouldn't do it even if I did.

Oh, betraying you's just fine, though, isn't it?

How many times I gotta tell you, j.r.,

She didn't know

Ewing oil was after that land?

Barnes must be enjoying this,

Using our money to sabotage one of our projects.

I tell you, I gotta admire it.

Oh, damn it, knock it off, both of you!

Bobby, it seems to me

If your wife had stayed out of this,

We'd all been better off.

But that's beside the point.

The point is, I want that land.

We need it.

And I want to know what you intend to do

To go about getting it, j.r.

Well, I'll go talk to him.

Oh, hell, you been talkin' to him for months.

Every time you go near him,

He ups his amount another point.

Bobby: daddy, i'll talk to him.

I know it's ewing oil business

And I bowed out, but... seems Pamela and I

Are dragged right back in the middle of it.

I'll talk to kessel. I'll talk to cliff.

I'll see if I can work somethin' out.

We haven't got a lot of time to waste, Bobby.

I know, sir.

OK, give it a try.

But you fail...

We'll do whatever we have to.

Do you understand?

Yes, sir.

Bobby: hello.

Did I wake you?

No. I wasn't sleepin'.

I just wanted to tell you

That I tried to see cliff today,

But I couldn't find him.

He probably knew

You and I were lookin' for him.

Bobby, you've got to give him a chance to explain.

Oh, I'll give him a chance, honey.

Just better be a good explanation.

He's causin' a lot of trouble,

And it's trouble we don't need.

Bobby, can... Can we have lunch together tomorrow?

No.

Please, Bobby. I can't bear it

When we part the way we did today.

Look, Pamela, what's the sense?

I mean, as long as you think

That cliff is sir galahad

And the ewings are the forces of evil,

There's no sense in talking.

I'm sorry, but there's some things i can't stand.

All right, so you want to hurt ewing oil. Fine.

I can't say as I blame you.

But you can find a better way to do it.

I want you to tell kessel to settle.

I've got nothing to do with kessel.

And if my sister

Wants to loan my daddy the money,

I got nothin' to do with it.

Come on, cliff, I'm not here

On a conflict of interest charge.

I'm here because of the trouble

You're causing in my life!

And in Pamela's life!

Our marriage has enough problems

Without you adding to 'em.

The thought of you and my sister

Getting a divorce doesn't exactly break my heart.

I never wanted her to marry you to begin with.

Come on, cliff,

I thought we came a long way past that.

You know, I've got nothing against you personally, Bobby.

I guess I even like you.

But you are a ewing.

And to date, you ewings have cost me an election.

You've tried to saddle me

With a trumped-up murder charge.

So right now, my sole purpose

Is to cause you as much trouble as I can,

Even to ruin you,

And I'll do anything and use anybody to do it.

Including your sister!

Including my sister!

I want her out of that family.

I want her back

On the right side of the tracks,

Where she belongs.

My brother has been waiting

For the chance to tear you apart.

And so far,

I've been running interference for you.

Now, if you don't leave my marriage alone,

I'm not only gonna stop doin' that...

But I might even lend him a hand.

Hi, Bobby.

Hi, kristin.

I wouldn't waste my time if I were you.

What?

Bobby doesn't fool around.

If I were lookin' for fun,

I'd stick to j.r.

He's ready for anything.

If I knew what you were talking about,

I'm sure I wouldn't like it.

Kristin: BOBBY? Bobby, are you here?

Bobby?

Bobby: yeah.

Hi. I just saw you drive up.

Everybody's gone out except for lucy,

And she's so busy sunbathing,

I can't get her to do anything.

I thought that you might want

To go play some tennis or something.

Well, I'd like to, kristin, but I can't.

I have business.

I just came in to change my clothes.

OK. That's all right.

Doesn't matter.

All right, look, uh... you get your racket

And you put it in the car,

And you tag along with me.

If I get done with my business in time,

We'll play a set before dinner.

Great. I'll get my stuff,

And I'll meet you in the car.

Just have to go a little easy on me, that's all.

Kristin: OK.

Are you as good at playin' tennis

As you are backgammon?

Almost as good.

What else are you good at?

Lots of stuff.

It's my mama's idea of geisha training.

I'm supposed to be good,

But not too good at anything

That could possibly interest a man.

Well, almost anything.

There is... One thing

That I'm not supposed to know anything about.

Come on, now, mr. Kessel,

You've gotta be reasonable, too.

Well, your brother comes out here

And thinks he's gonna get his own way

Just by askin' for it, like god almighty.

I agree the ewing offer's too low.

You're damn right it's too low.

Yeah, but, now, what you're askin',

That's not exactly fair, is it?

This here land is worth real money.

Look, mr. Kessel,

You can hold out one, maybe 2 months,

Costing you a little bundle of money.

But you're not gonna gain by it.

You'll go into arbitration,

And the o.l.m. Will negotiate the settlement.

Cliff Barnes or no cliff Barnes,

You'll get the goin' rate.

That's 19, maybe 20%, tops.

Now, what if I offer you... 21% right now?

25 is what I want.

21%, mr. Kessel. That's one point more

Than you'll get by waitin'.

Well... I just don't know.

OK. OK, you think about it.

You give me a call. Here's my card.

Remember, you'll only lose by waitin'.

You have a good day, mr. Kessel.

Thank you for your time.

What do you think he'll do?

I think he'll agree.

Let's go play tennis.

Well. You have a good day?

Even better than I expected.

Sounds like you're makin' progress.

'course, that's not surprisin', is it?

Pretty girl like you's hard to resist, you know.

Kristin: Bobby.

E-excuse me, won't you, both of you?

I... Promised I'd call mama.

What the hell's goin' on, j.r.?

Nothin'.

Well, I know what I saw.

Bobby, you're overreacting

A little bit, aren't you?

J.r., she's a kid.

Not to mention your own wife's sister.

Bob, you sure... These are not your ideas

You're tryin' to attribute to me?

Come on, j.r., I think of kristin

The way I do lucy.

'course, I couldn't blame you...

Man's wife startin' actin' up

The way yours has.

Can't hold it against him

For seekin' solace elsewhere.

'course... Kristin is a very special girl.

Very special.

Dad, that royalty's just too high.

Now, I can talk to him. I can get him down.

Daddy, kessel won't do it.

I know his type, and he won't.

Oh, come on, bob.

I think, uh, Bobby's right, j.r.

If we go to arbitration, we'll have to pay 20.

It's worth the extra points

To save the time.

All right, all right, it's up to you.

Bring him in, Bobby.

OK. Send in mr. Kessel, please.

Dad, if you'd just listen to me.

A couple of more d...

Mr. Kessel. Thank you for comin' down.

Everything is just like we talked about it.

You, uh... Remember my father.

Kessel.

Yeah.

Bobby: 'course, you know j.r.

Mr. Kessel.

I have the... Producer's form filled out,

Just like we discussed on the phone this morning.

If you'll just sign it, please?

Appears OK to me.

And here's your copy.

Mr. Kessel, you're a wealthy man.

J.r.?

You know something?

I'd have settled for less money

If you hadn't tried to railroad me.

Well, it... Didn't seem like

There was much point in holdin' out any longer.

I told you months ago,

The longer j.r. Ewing squirmed,

The better I'd like it.

Hi, pam.

You knew the ewings wanted that land.

Wally, uh... Would you excuse us?

I think my sister and I'd better talk.

Oh, sure, sure. So long, cliff.

See you, pam.

How could you do this to me, cliff?

Pam, you really shouldn't walk

Into rooms unexpectedly.

You might learn something you don't want to know.

I wouldn't have walked in

If you had returned my calls.

You've been avoiding me.

No. I've been busy.

Busy destroying my marriage.

Only partially.

Don't get flip. I'm not in the mood.

Do you want to tell me what you're upset about?

You extort $10,000 from me

By totally misrepresenting the facts.

You make trouble for me and Bobby

And his family,

And you want to know why I'm upset?

I feel like a fool.

Bobby tried to tell me,

And I wouldn't believe him.

You know, if you're so concerned

About your precious marriage,

Why are you living in a hotel?

Why aren't you home with your husband?

Better than anyone,

You know the answer to that.

You know, you have to choose.

You're either a ewing or a Barnes,

But you have to choose.

That's right. i have to decide.

You don't get to do it for me.

OK, I admit... I set you up.

I wanted to knock you

Off that fence you're sitting on

Because I want you here on my side.

Lately, your side doesn't look

Any more attractive to me

Than the ewing side does.

In fact, I can't tell the difference anymore.

Bobby?

Hello, j.r.

You keep skippin' dinner,

You're gonna get people

Mighty worried around here.

I had some things to do in town,

That's all.

Obviously, not with your wife.

She's been callin' all night

Tryin' to get ahold of you.

Hello?

Hi. It's me.

I'm sorry I took so long to call.

I just got in.

That's all right. I was waiting.

Bobby, I saw cliff today.

And?

He lied to me. He knew all along.

I'm so sorry I didn't believe you.

Well, how does that make you feel?

I don't know. I can't help thinking

That if my brother's a rat,

It's your brother who turned him into one.

Pamela, I don't understand you.

I really don't!

I'm not sure I do, either.

I'm sure we both need some sleep.

Good night, sweetheart.

Kristin. You awake?

Bobby's home.

I hope I'm not disturbing you.

I couldn't sleep.

I wanted a book.

No, you're not disturbing me.

Come on in.

Bobby, what's the matter?

You look terrible.

Nothing. Everything's fine.

Is it the kessel deal? Did it fall through?

No, kristin, it's not the kessel deal.

You look so unhappy.

I'm sorry, kristin.

I shouldn't have done that.

You didn't do anything. i did it. I like you.

I like you, too.

But that's not the issue, is it?

Then what is it?

Well, we're at what is called

A turning point in our relationship.

Up till now, it's just been a friendship.

And after now?

Well, that's up to you.

Friendship is all I have to offer.

It's not enough, Bobby.

Not for me.

Well, you were certainly worth a try.

Thanks.

I told you so.

What are you talking about?

All I wanted was a glass of milk.

Instead, I got a love scene.

I heard the whole thing.

And what do you intend to do about it?

Nothin'.

But there's just no room around here

For you, kristin.

What difference does it make to you?

It makes plenty of difference.

You get in my way.

Why don't you just go someplace

That you have a chance?

Stick around this family,

You're just gonna end up... A big loser.

What are you doing here?

Well, there was a lot of comin' and goin',

And I just, uh, thought I'd come in

And see what was goin' on.

You've been with Bobby.

Yes.

And what happened?

Well, I'm here, aren't I, alone?

Are you all right?

Yes.

I think it's best if you go

To Santa Fe tomorrow, don't you?

I have a feelin', uh,

Mama might be a little lonely.

What's the matter, sugar? Can't sleep?

Oh, I'll sleep, all right.

Just like a baby...

Knowin' that you've had a few disappointin' days.

What... What are you talkin' about?

First Bobby gettin' that lease signed by kessel.

Kristin leavin' for Santa Fe tomorrow.

Things just, uh, haven't gone

The way you planned, have they?

She's leavin'?

Unlike, uh, some people I know,

She knows when to leave a losin' game.

I'm glad you called me.

I really didn't think you'd see me again.

And if I wouldn't?

Would that really make a difference?

Would you come home?

You know, my finding out

What cliff has turned into

Should've made all the difference,

But it didn't.

Now I don't want to be a Barnes or a ewing.

I love you, Pamela.

And I want you.

Does that make a difference?

Of course it makes a difference.

But not enough.

Oh, Bobby, if we could go someplace tomorrow,

Just the two of us, and start over again,

I'd go anyplace in the world with you.

Except southfork.

I can't.

Don't you see, Pamela,

If we run away, they'll have won,

Both of 'em... Cliff and j.r.

I don't want to go through life

Knowing that I let 'em whip me.

I'd like to tell you

That I could wait forever

For you to make up your mind.

Life's not like that.

People... Change. Too many things happen.

Decide, Pamela.

Decide soon.
