Original subtitles

Better get dressed, honey.

Time to go home.

Already?

Yeah. No sense worrying about the baby.

Be home in a few days.

I'm not worried about anything.

I know everything's gonna be just fine.

You try and force her to choose

Between you and j.r.,

And you're gonna be driving her

Back to that sanitarium.

I'm gonna have them both,

Sue ellen and the baby.

I'll get them any way I have to.

Oh, no, j.r.

There... There's been a mistake.

No. No. No mistake, mama.

It's the baby. Good-bye, mama.

Ohh.

Woman on p.a.: Dr. Samuels, call your service.

Dr. Samuels, call your service.

Just a few more days,

And we'll do everything we can

To make sure they're as few as possible.

Thank you, doctor.

You know how anxious we all are.

May I see that for just a minute, please?

Oh. Yeah, of course.

Thank you.

Well, I'll be damned. Ames and garr got out.

Thank you.

Better get dressed, honey.

Time to go home.

Already?

Yeah. No sense worrying about the baby.

Doctor says he's gonna be fine.

Be home in a few days.

I'm not worried about anything.

Everything's gonna be just fine.

Woman on p.a.: Dr. Fenniman, report to radiology.

Dr. Fenniman, report to radiology.

Ray: ho!

Ho, now, ho! Ho there! Ho!

Get on! Hyah! Hyah!

Ho! Ho!

Ho! Ho, ho! Ho!

Howdy. Howdy. Howdy.

Something wrong with that one.

Daddy, I found a dead cow

Up by the braddock county line.

Looked like screwworms.

Yeah? Well, that one's got screwworm.

That's for sure.

If we don't take care of it fast,

We're liable to have an epidemic

On our hands.

What about those, ray?

They all right?

I found one in there with screwworm, jock.

We'd better ride every pasture

And take a look at every head

In the morning.

Good idea, Bobby.

We sure got a lot of ground to cover.

Here comes ewing iii, sir.

Hey, there's dad and Bobby.

Hey, dad, bob!

Hey, sue ellen! Welcome home!

All the boys are real happy

To have you back.

Why don't you give them

A little wave or smile or something, huh?

Come on, sue ellen.

They're just yelling their heads off for you.

Go on, give them a wave.

Sure is good to have sue ellen back.

Good. Good.

Everybody's real happy

To have you home, sweetheart.

Including me.

I've been seeing her at the hospital.

You don't know what sue ellen's like now.

You haven't seen her every day

The way I have.

She's been ill. She'll recover.

If you give her a chance.

I know how you feel, cliff.

I don't like what happened,

But I can still sympathize with you,

But there's not just you to consider or the baby.

There's sue ellen.

She's an emotional mess.

It's like she's walking a tightrope,

And any disturbance, the slightest distraction,

And she's gonna fall off.

Look, you don't understand, pam.

I can help her because she loves me.

You'll help her right back to the bottle

If you're not careful.

I should've let her come to me months ago

When she wanted to.

Maybe you should have.

Maybe a lot of this mess would've been avoided

If you had.

Wait a minute. I only did

What I thought would best help her.

What you thought was best for your career.

Oh, wait a minute! That's not fair.

J.r. Came to me.

I'm tired of hearing about j.r.

For once, just for once,

Take the responsibility for your own life.

Whatever happened doesn't really matter.

What matters is that I love her

And I want to be with her.

I want her, and I want our son.

I'm warning you, cliff.

You can't possibly think she's better off

Being married to that monster

Than to be with me?

But I do.

Well, I don't care

Because you're not gonna change my mind.

I want them. I want both of them.

Lucy: can you imagine all the guys over there?

Whoo, whoo, whoo!

Going around in these little bathing suits?

Did you see the way mark was making eyes at you?

Oh, shoot.

No, wanda, I'm not kidding.

He's not too bad.

He's got beautiful eyes.

Let's hope we can get some classes together here.

Mmm.

Lucy's planning to study this year.

Oh, there they are! There's the car!

J.r.!

Hi, lucy. How you doing?

Fine! How's the baby?

Oh, fine, fine.

The doctor says we can have him home

In a few days.

Oh, great.

Welcome back, sue ellen.

I'm really glad you're home.

I'm happy to be back.

I'll just get her settled in, honey.

Howdy, girls. How you doing?

Fine.

Heh heh!

I'll get that door for you.

Come on.

I thought you said she was fine.

She is.

I don't think so.

I think she's acting rather peculiar.

Nah. Well, come on.

Let's go and finish our schedules.

I meant what I said, darling.

I'm glad you're back, and I'm gonna try

To make you happy you're home.

I am happy, j.r.

I'm gonna make it up to you for everything.

I'm a little tired.

I think I'll lie down before dinner.

Sure.

Here you go.

Here's the last of them.

Thanks.

Mr. Ames. Mr. Garr.

Uh, louella. Connie.

J.r. In?

We, uh, heard he had a baby.

Stopped by to congratulate him.

You heard?

Well, even where we were,

There are newspapers.

J.r.'s not in right now.

With his wife and baby, I suppose.

Are they still in the hospital?

The baby is. Sue ellen went home today.

Garr: lucky fellow, that j.r.

Have them both survive an accident like that.

Well, uh, you tell him

We were here to see him.

I'll be sure and tell him.

All right.

Real nice seeing you again, darling.

You know, those two scare me silly.

How'd they get paroled so fast?

When you're jeb ames and Willie Joe garr

And the charge is only manslaughter,

I guess you don't stay in prison very long.

Mama, can I make you something?

Yes, thanks.

Daddy been out with the boys all day?

Mm-hmm.

I think sue ellen looks a little pale.

Oh, now, don't you go worrying about sue ellen.

Dr. Crane says she's in perfect health.

Physically, maybe.

Mama, it's just a matter of time.

All she needs is to rest and realize

That all the troubles are over.

Everything's gonna be fine.

Is it?

If I have anything to say about it.

You'll see.

You're gonna be proud of me yet.

I hope so.

Lucy: hi, Bobby. Hi, granddaddy.

Hi, lucy.

What do you say, lucy?

J.r.

What do you say, j.r.?

Daddy.

How's, uh, sue ellen and the baby?

Oh, the doctor says they're just

In great shape.

Oh, that's good. Good.

You look a little tired.

You been out there all day?

No, I'm fine, fine.

Just a little warm, that's all.

Daddy.

Ah, thank you, Bobby.

We did run into some calves

With screwworm, though.

Screwworm? How long gone is it?

Oh, maybe 10, 12 days.

Putting some extra hands on.

We're gonna check the herd in the morning.

That could be big trouble.

We'll take care of that

Before it gets that far.

Well, I hope so, sir.

Ewing enterprises has enough problems

With oil at the moment.

Certainly doesn't need short beef sales

On top of that.

Don't worry yourself, j.r.

We'll take care of it.

Well, I hope so.

We'll see you.

Lucy.

J.r.

Can I fix you something?

A soda or something like that?

No, thanks. I'll fix it myself.

You know, uh, I try real hard

To be nice to you, darling.

You just won't let me, will you?

Pam's home.

That ought to make grandma pretty happy.

Family hasn't been together for dinner

In a long time.

Pam: sue ellen.

Sue ellen.

I'm glad you're home. You look wonderful.

Thank you.

Hi, honey.

Hi, darling.

You look tired. Did you have a bad day?

Well, we got some sick cattle.

We'll be able to handle it, though.

What's the matter with you?

You don't look so chipper yourself.

I ran into sue ellen in the hall.

It's impossible to talk to her.

Well, darling, you got to

Give her some time.

She figures out that we're both

On her side, she'll come around.

I don't think so, Bobby.

I think she hates us all now.

Bobby: sue ellen?

Hello, Bobby.

How you feeling?

Just fine.

Good. It's good to have you home.

So everyone keeps assuring me.

It's a beautiful room, isn't it?

Yeah. Mama put a few weeks

Into getting this together.

She waited a long time for this grandchild.

Sue ellen, you have to stop thinking

The only thing we care about is the baby.

It's not true.

Why, Bobby, I know that you all

Are concerned about me.

We care about you, sue ellen, all of us do.

Thank you.

That's very sweet of you.

Sue ellen, you have to stop doing this.

You need friends.

Don't push us away. Let us try and help.

Sue ellen...

I would never use what you told me

About cliff and the baby to hurt you.

You have to believe that.

You can trust me.

I don't know what you're

Talking about, Bobby.

He's about dead.

Damn.

Not getting up this morning, darling?

Not at the moment, no.

Well, mama might start worrying, you know?

Your mama has had 3 sons.

I think she would understand

That resting is perfectly natural.

Yeah. Yeah, I guess you're right.

Say, do you remember that little greek restaurant

We used to go to?

Yes.

Well, uh, I dropped in there for lunch

The other day and...

No, no. It was a businessman's lunch.

Honestly.

I'm sure it was.

Well, it turned out to be just as wonderful

As I remember it, and I thought it might be

A fun idea if you and I dropped in there today

After we visit the baby.

I'm not going to visit the baby today.

You're not?

Dr. Crane says it's important for me

To rest, and I don't think traveling

From here to Dallas is her idea of rest.

Well, but... But the baby...

The baby is perfectly fine, j.r.

Well, darling...

I don't care to discuss this any more.

I need my rest.

All right. All right.

I'll see you tonight.

Bobby's so worried about the cattle.

Is it serious?

Well, not if it's caught in time.

It's just a lot of work.

He's probably more tired than worried.

Morning, everybody.

J.r., what time are you going

To the hospital?

Oh, about 12:30, 1:00.

I thought I'd drive in with sue ellen

This morning.

What if I took you both to lunch?

Sue ellen's not going into town today, mama.

She's not?

No. Dr. Crane told her to stay in bed.

Now, it's nothing to get worried about.

She just needs a little rest, that's all.

Gee, I got to get going.

It's not unusual for a new mother

To need rest.

No. I guess not.

Come on, lucy.

I'll drop you off at school,

Then we can go to the hospital together.

Great! I'll see you later, grandma.

Bye-bye.

See you later.

We've got them stopped here, here, and here,

But look at all the yellow flags.

They've got plenty of drill sites,

And they're still buying more leases.

Cliff, there are only 24 hours a day,

And we can't spend it all on ewing oil.

Besides, it wouldn't look good.

Got to be someplace else we can move.

Well, there's the... the palo seco field.

We've had a lot of complaints

From the farmers in the area.

I don't think that's a very good idea.

Unless, uh, the complaints are substantial.

No, they're not, not at the moment.

What about the environmental impact study

On the lindero site?

Looks good to me.

You can't turn down that study, cliff.

There's absolutely no reason.

Look, if your battle with the ewings

Begins to look too much

Like a vendetta, you're gonna end up

Cutting your own throat, as well as theirs.

Look, I've heard some rumblings

From Austin I don't like.

You're gonna find yourself there

Answering a whole lot of questions.

If you're not careful.

So why don't you just do us

Both a favor and just go slower?

OK, I'll go slower.

That's better.

Maternity ward, please.

Yes, I was, uh, calling to make an inquiry

About the condition of the ewing baby.

No, I'm just a friend. Of the family.

Do you have any idea how much longer

He'll be there?

Thank you.

I think something like this would be nice.

What do you think?

I don't know.

I kind of like the other one for you.

It's simpler, more elegant.

Hmm. Morning, j.r.

Morning, girls.

Mr. Smithfield's here with mr. Beam.

Any calls?

Mr. Ames and mr. Garr called twice already.

They stopped by yesterday afternoon, too.

They can wait.

Good morning, j.r.

Harv! How you doing?

Just fine, thank you. Your daddy joining us?

No, no, I'm afraid not.

We've got some sick cattle,

And he and Bobby have been out since dawn

Doctoring them.

Oh, that's too bad.

I wanted you both to meet Alan beam,

The young man I've been telling you about.

We finally managed to coax him away

From egan in Chicago,

And I got to tell you,

There is nothing about environmental law,

Or any kind of law for that matter,

This boy don't know.

Well, harv's been ewing oil's lawyer

Ever since there's been a ewing oil.

Always glad to meet anybody he recommends.

My pleasure, sir.

I look forward to working with you.

You've got to believe me, if anyone can make hash

Out of cliff Barnes' tail, this boy can.

I've been studying the problem, sir.

Has some very interesting aspects.

I call what cliff Barnes

Is trying to do to my business

Something stronger than interesting.

Oh, yes, sir.

Like shutting down production

On that Odessa well, claiming contamination?

Masterstroke.

This is not a tennis match.

It's business.

I've always found, sir,

Business or pleasure,

It pays to give the devil his due.

Now, I've roughed out,

Shall we say, a game plan.

Yeah?

Connie: mr. Willie Joe garr is calling.

Tell him I'm busy.

Well, now, this looks pretty good.

Thank you, sir.

Call me j.r. All my friends do.

Won't even talk to us.

Oh, yes, he will.

One way or the other, we'll make him.

We'll make him talk to us.

They're so tiny.

Nurse, would it be all right

If I gave my nephew his bottle?

Oh, well, I don't know, mrs. Ewing.

You know, usually it's the mother

That takes care of the baby.

Oh, I know, but my sister-in-law

Isn't feeling well.

In fact, she probably won't even be in today.

Well, it's not usual, but... Thank you.

Jock: well, I'd put my money on anybody

That harv smithfield recommends.

Oh, there's no doubt about it, dad.

This beam boy, he... He's bright.

He's researched the law backwards and forwards.

I think he may be able to help us stop Barnes.

No way, counting on the law, j.r.,

And you can just bet cliff Barnes

As got a legal trick or two up his sleeve.

Oh, yeah, I'm sure he has,

But we'll stop him one way or another,

Unless, of course, bob can think of a good reason

Why we shouldn't.

No, j.r., I... I can't think of one good reason.

Oh, I loved that.

Not me. Not for a while.

We'll wait and see.

Ha ha ha!

I'm not gonna have any children yet.

He's such a little cutie.

You know? So tiny.

He's so little. I can't believe it.

Forget putting him in the sugar bowl.

Bobby: well, hello.

Lucy: HI!

You just come from the hospital?

We sure did.

Well, how's my grandson?

He's great. Small but gorgeous.

Just like another ewing I can see.

The doctor said he gained an ounce since yesterday.

I'm gonna get a soda.

Does anyone else want anything?

I'll have the usual.

How about you, sue ellen?

Just club soda, lucy.

I'll get it, darling. Thank you.

Sue ellen.

Thank you.

Darling, uh, I wish you'd try and take

A little more interest

In... Things and... interest? In what?

Well, to start with, our child.

I don't think he's exactly suffering

From lack of attention.

You wanted that child so much,

And now, uh, you just don't

Seem to care at all.

Of course I do.

Well, it doesn't look like it,

That's what I'm saying.

Appearances can very often be deceiving.

Honey, I know how... I know how hard

This has been for you,

How difficult at the time it was

To quit drinking and go cold Turkey,

And I just want you to know that, uh,

I admire you for it, sue ellen.

My drinking was never a problem.

I kept trying to tell everybody that.

And what I'm saying is, if... If we try,

We really try,

Well, we can solve all our other problems,

And I want you to know I am going to try.

I really am.

Um, sweetheart, I... I got a little...

I got a little present for you

This morning.

I dropped in a store downtown,

And... Heh heh... jeweler calls it

A maternity ring.

You bought me once, j.r.,

And you can't do it anymore.

I am no longer for sale.

Miss ellie: everyone's been so busy these days

That we hardly ever see each other

Except at dinner.

Aren't those, uh, rather long hours

For jock, miss ellie?

Well, jock's not a man who likes babying.

And I did a little too much of that

After his operation last year.

Ray and Bobby will see

That he doesn't do too much.

You're so smart, miss ellie, and strong.

You always seem to be in control.

Oh, I've made my mistakes, sue ellen,

And I expect to make more.

Just not too many, I hope.

You shouldn't brood

About the past, sue ellen.

It doesn't do much good.

And you have your whole future

Ahead of you, and from where I sit, it...

It looks fine.

J.r. Hasn't behaved this well

Since he was 6 years old.

Maybe having a child is just what he needed.

And maybe it's just what you needed, too.

Jock and I have wanted another grandchild

For a long time, sue ellen.

You've made us very happy.

There's no denying that,

But, well, we want you to be happy, too.

I am, miss ellie. Very.

J.r.'s been just wonderful.

My little boy,

He's the most beautiful thing

I've ever seen in my life.

Want me to take you to the hospital, grandma?

Well, I don't know.

Uh, were you planning to go

Into Dallas today?

Mmm. Of course.

Um, I'll go change, and we can leave.

What is it, sue ellen?

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm... I'm just a little dizzy.

I think I'll go upstairs and rest for a while.

Why don't you two go into Dallas?

You know, grandma, I don't think sue ellen

Wants to see the baby.

Of course she does.

Well, parents don't always want their kids.

Mine didn't.

Lucy, that's just not true.

Yes, it is.

They didn't want me when I was born,

And they haven't wanted me since.

Oh, that's wonderful.

I didn't think it would be so soon.

Well, he's doing better than we all expected.

There's no reason to keep him longer.

You can tell his mother

To come get him tomorrow.

Lucy: pam!

Hi. I didn't think you'd still be here.

Well, grandma just couldn't

Tear herself away.

You know how grandparents are

About their grandsons.

You should've seen the way I fussed

Over you, young lady.

He can come home tomorrow.

Terrific!

He's right up to weight,

And all his tests are fine.

Woman on p.a.: Dr. Rogers, call your office.

That's me they want.

Will you ladies excuse me?

Thank you, doctor.

We're going to lunch.

Grandma's taking me to anselmo's.

You want to come?

Oh, I don't think so.

Well, you don't know what you're missing.

Yes, I do... About an inch right there.

Bye. Bye.

Bye, pam.

Hi.

Alan: the site is perfect, j.r.

Drilling's been going on

In the area for years now

With no adverse effects.

The population's far enough removed

Not to care what goes on.

I promise I can draft a foolproof

Environmental impact study,

And if Barnes rejects this one,

Bingo... Abuse of power.

Yeah, now, my daddy doesn't think that the law

Is the best way to handle cliff Barnes,

But you may be right. You know that?

Yeah!

Connie: mr. Ames and mr. Garr

Are here to see you.

Oh, tell them I'm in a meeting.

Uh, make it some other time, would you?

Do you want me to forget... No, no, no.

No, it's... It's worth a shot.

Mr. Ewing, I'm sorry.

All right. It's OK, honey. Go on.

What can I do for you boys?

We're beginning to get the feeling

You don't want to see us, j.r.

We want to talk, j.r.

It must be pretty urgent,

You busting in like this, disturbing the peace.

Not too smart, couple of boys

Out on parole, creating a ruckus.

It's urgent. And private.

Oh, I can come back later, j.r.

All right, fine.

Keep that on the back burner, will you?

Yep.

Excuse me.

All right. What do you want?

Well, don't we even get offered

A drink first?

I'm partial who I drink with nowadays.

You be reasonable, j.r.

We were protecting you as well as ourselves

By trying to get Julie out of town.

If she'd have talked to Barnes,

You'd been finished, too.

You didn't have to kill her.

She wouldn't have said anything.

I'd have seen to that.

It was an accident. Now, you know that.

Well, now, the way I look at it,

What happened was as much your fault as ours,

And we've been doing all the paying up to now.

From here on in, it's your turn.

We need money, and quick.

You think I'm gonna give you money?

What for, old times' sake?

You got nothing on me.

All our money's tied up in litigation.

We're being sued by everybody for everything.

We can't put our hands on a penny

Till all the suits are settled.

Well, you boys are just

In a peck of trouble, aren't you?

You owe us, j.r.! You owe us plenty!

Even if I had the money, which I don't right now,

I wouldn't give you a nickel.

Now, come on, just show me

How dumb you really are.

You touch a hair on my head,

I'll have you back in prison before nightfall.

Now, get out of my office.

We're gonna see to it

You're real sorry for this, j.r.

The only thing I'm ever gonna be sorry for

Is it wasn't you fell off that roof

Instead of Julie.

Now, go on, get out.

Hi, sue ellen.

Hello, Bobby. You're home early.

Yeah. I was, uh, I was gonna go

Into town for a little while.

Actually, I'm going to the hospital

To see your baby.

I'd be, uh, glad to take you in with me.

That's very nice of you, Bobby, but, uh...

Sue ellen!

You can't go on like this.

Like what? I don't know what you mean.

Avoiding me. Uh...

Avoiding the things that should be

The most important things in your life right now.

I don't think you understand

Something, Bobby.

I am not avoiding anything.

I'm just following doctor's orders...

Trying to rest and get well.

Did your doctor advise you to ignore your baby,

To forget about the past?

I don't think so, sue ellen.

Nobody ever got better that way.

Things won't disappear because you pretend

They don't exist.

You can't wipe out the past

By denying it happened.

What do you want from me, Bobby?

I just would like to see you happy.

That's all.

And I'd like to help if I can.

Then leave me alone, please.

Cliff!

Hello.

What are you doing here?

I'm going inside to see my son.

I told you to stay away from sue ellen

And the baby.

You plan to start a brawl right here

In front of the hospital?

If I have to, yeah.

Just butt out, Bobby.

It's none of your business.

It's between sue ellen and me.

Maybe it used to be, but not anymore,

And I'm not gonna sit around

And let you cause trouble.

How do intend to stop it?

That child in there is mine.

You really don't care

How many lives you destroy, do you,

As long as you get what you want?

How many ewing lives?

No. No, I really don't.

Then what about sue ellen?

I love her. I want both of them,

Her and the baby.

I'm warning you, cliff,

Sue ellen can't take any pressure, not now.

She's not well enough.

You try and force her to choose

Between you and j.r.,

And you're gonna be driving her back

To that sanitarium.

Stay out of my way, Bobby.

My brother's in there.

You want to go in, you come through me.

I'm not gonna take you on,

Not here, not when I can't win,

But I'll tell you something.

I'm gonna have them both,

Sue ellen and the baby.

I'll get them any way I have to.

The ewing oil impact study on the Midland field,

It's rejected. What?

I want files on this... This... And this.

Cliff, I... Shaw, don't argue with me!

Just do as I say!

I'm gonna make the ewings give back everything

That rightfully belongs to me.

Morning, dad.

Morning, j.r. You're up early.

Yes, sir. I got an early meeting.

Some overseas oil people.

They'll be leaving the country

This morning.

Oh? What's that all about?

Well, there's some oil fields opening up

Off the coast of asia.

I thought there might be something in it

For... For the cartel.

I'm not sure yet. I'm...

Yeah. Uh, j.r., uh...

Have ames and garr made any move

To get back into the cartel?

No, sir. No, sir.

They're pretty well tied up in litigation.

Kind of short of capital, too,

I understand.

Well, the grand jury said it was manslaughter,

But I call it murder.

They should've been put away for good.

Sure as hell,

I don't want them to have anything to do

With ewing oil.

No, sir, neither do I.

Hello.

Good morning.

What you doing up so early?

I want to talk to you.

You got a minute?

Well, a minute is about all I do have.

Well?

Is everything going OK, Bobby?

Well, we'll have things under control by tonight,

I think, yeah.

Is that what you wanted to talk about?

I just wanted to know if you're mad

At me about anything in particular.

Oh, honey, I'm not mad at you.

No.

Then why did you snap my head off

Every time I said something last night?

Look...

Honey, it's been a rough couple of days.

I think I'm just tired, that's all.

It won't happen again till you deserve it.

I know you better than that, Bobby.

Can't you tell me what's really bothering you?

Honey, this Barnes and ewing feud,

It keeps making it more and more

Difficult for us to be honest

With one another.

It is complicated.

Between cliff, j.r., the baby,

I don't even know what to do, what to say.

I know.

Cliff was at the hospital again yesterday.

So that's what it is.

Yeah. And I warned him to stay away

From both of them...

From sue ellen and the baby.

He will, Bobby.

He doesn't understand yet how fragile sue ellen is.

As soon as he understands, he won't want to make it

Any worse for her.

Honey, I explained all that to him

In great detail, and it didn't make

An impression on him.

Now, he's out to make trouble,

And a lot of it.

He won't. And we won't let him!

Saying something like that

And doing something about it

Are two different things,

But why don't you talk to him?

You tell him that if he comes near,

Comes near sue ellen and that baby,

Then I'm gonna take him apart.

Tell him j.r. And I'll make

A scandal so big, it'll ruin him forever.

Ewing name goes through the mud,

Cliff Barnes goes right along with it.

Do you want me to take, uh, sue ellen

To the hospital today?

I don't think she ought to drive for a while.

Your mother said she had a dizzy spell yesterday.

Well, I'm gonna come back and pick her up.

By the time you get home tonight,

Your grandson is gonna be in this house.

That's great.

You and, uh, sue ellen getting along OK?

Well, I'm trying, dad.

I'm trying.

I know you are. Keep it up.

Truck's ready.

You want to go now?

Yeah, I guess so, Bobby.

See you, j.r.

Daddy. Say, uh, bob,

How many head we stand to lose?

Well, it's not too bad.

We lost about a dozen calves,

But we caught it in time.

Well, that's something, anyway.

Yeah.

Mmm.

Jock: get them on in, boys!

You OK, jock?

Yeah. Never felt better in my life.

Well, I guess you got good reason

To feel that way.

You better believe it.

Bringing a grandson of mine home today.

Let's head on in.

You bet.

Senora, would you like some tea?

Thank you, Theresa.

You're feeling better?

A little.

Sue ellen, darling, how you doing?

Hello, j.r.

Say, I think you ought to get changed.

Real anxious to go into Dallas

And pick up that boy of ours.

I don't think I'll be able

To go with you, j.r.

What do you mean you can't go?

I don't understand, darling.

You see, I've had this horrible headache

All morning, and I thought the sun

Would help, but it hasn't.

Uh, sue ellen, wait a minute.

Hold it.

Darling... Wait. Look.

Sue ellen, I don't think it's asking

An awful lot.

J.r., try and be a little patient.

Seems to me I've been quite patient, mother.

Sue ellen,

You are getting dressed, and you're coming

Into Dallas with me.

I told you I can't!

Won't is more like it.

Now, I don't know who you're trying to fool

With these phony headaches and fake dizzy spells,

But you're not fooling me, honey.

There's nothing wrong with you,

And you know it.

Am not willing to put up with one

Of your scenes, j.r.

Dr. Crane told me to remain calm.

Well, Dr. Crane's been saying

A lot of things recently, none of which concern me.

Now, all I care about is that you start acting

Like a wife and a mother.

I am doing the best I can.

Well, it's just not good enough.

Now, you got my mother and my father...

As a matter of fact, everybody in this household

Wondering what is wrong,

Why you seem incapable of displaying

Any kind of normal maternal feelings.

Don't you have any sense of what's proper?

That is real good coming from you, j.r.

Real good.

Well, I'm not gonna have this conversation turned

Into a discussion of my behavior.

It's you I'm worried about, honey.

Here. Pick out something real nice,

And we'll go to Dallas.

Now, are you gonna get dressed

Or am I gonna have to do it for you?

What do you intend to do,

Drag me out of this house

Yelling and screaming?

I think I can rely on you not to make

Too much of a scene.

I'll get dressed.

Good.

Well, what's going on here?

Mr. Ewing, have you any comment

To make at this time?

I don't have any comment.

I'm just here to pick up my child.

Man: mr. Ewing, would you come

With me, please?

Who are you?

Lieutenant Simpson, Dallas police.

Well, now, what's going on here, lieutenant?

I'm sorry to have to be the one

To tell you this, sir, ma'am.

Your baby's been kidnapped.

A red light, and a policeman's always...

I know. There's been a room set aside

For our use.

Does anybody know who or why?

So far nobody's seen or heard

Anything about it.

Man: mr. Ewing, mrs. Ewing,

I can't tell you how sorry I am.

Nothing like this has ever happened before.

What I want to know is why it happened this time.

Simpson: we're doing our best

To find that out, sir, and recover your son.

So if you'll just step this way, please.

Now, wait a minute.

I have to let my family know what's going on.

Darling, you go with lieutenant Simpson.

I'll be along in just a minute, all right?

Now, is that really necessary?

Would you get rid of them?

I don't want this turning into a circus.

Why don't you come with me, please?

Is there a phone I can use around here?

Of course, mr. Ewing. Right in there.

Theresa: senora, telefono.

I'll be right there, Theresa.

Hello.

Mama?

J.r., what's happened?

Dr. Samuels called right after you left,

But he wouldn't tell me what he wanted.

Is the baby all right?

Mama, the baby's missing.

He's been kidnapped.

Oh, no, j.r. There must be a mistake.

No, no, no mistake, mama.

He's gone.

How?

Well, I don't know.

Nobody seems to know anything yet.

Now, you better tell dad and...

And tell everybody.

Nobody knows who or why.

I think we all better be very careful.

I'll... I'll have lucy and pam brought home.

Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea.

Good-bye, mama.

Bye.

Oh.

Oh.

Ohh.

Oh, no.
