All language subtitles for Dallas S10E03

I'll have Bobby.

Yes, and all the
rest of the family.

Family? Well, look around the table.
Can't see family for the outsiders.

I got a way to get back
at him that is terrific.

You can have your cake.

- What do we do?
- I don't know yet, Bobby.

But I'll be damned if I'm gonna watch
everything I've worked for dribble away.

I need someone
to be there for me.

You're no longer
gonna be that person.

- What's wrong?
- I'm really scared.

- Good morning, Bobby.
- Good morning, Kendall.

- Good morning.
- Oh. Good morning.

There's a Mr. Carter here
from one of the Midland fields.

- John Carter?
- Yes. He's waiting in your office.

- I didn't think you'd mind.
- No. Thank you.

Yeah.

John.

- We have some kind of problem?
- No, sir, not exactly.

Well, what brings you up
here? Here. Sit down, sit down.

Mr. Ewing...

we got the work order
to close down the fields.

I wanted to talk
with you about that.

Mr. Ewing, it's not my place to
interfere with your decisions, but...

Well, I was talking with the
boys, and we think that field...

could be a pretty good producer
if you give it half a chance.

Well, I guess that's possible,
John. But it's not really the point.

What we'd like is if you
could come down there...

and see some things yourself.

Now, you got a real good
operation down there.

You know what's
going on in the business.

Yes, sir.

We're closing down
all our strippers.

We could be talking about
a lot more than just strippers.

Can't you come down
there and pay us a visit...

before you make
your final decision?

I know you're a busy man.

We wouldn't take
much of your time.

Yeah, all right. I'll
come down tomorrow.

I don't want you to take
that as any kind of promise.

No, sir. Oh, no, I wouldn't.

I'll find my way out.

- Thank you, John.
- Thank you.

Yes, Phyllis?

Jeremy Wendell is on
Line 2 for you, Bobby.

- Do you wanna take it?
- Jeremy. Yeah, I'll take it. Thank you.

- Hello, Jeremy.
- Hello, Bobby.

You're the last person
I expected to hear from.

I have an idea I think
might interest Ewing Oil.

I'd like to discuss it with
you, maybe over lunch.

- Today?
- Today's fine with me if you're free.

Well, I can be.

Well, why not meet me at
the Oil Baron's, say, at 1:00.

I'll be there.

I think it'll be nice
to have roses...

- along the driveway.
- Very nice.

- Don't you think?
- Mm-hm.

- I don't think you care at all.
- Sure I do.

My feet.

Howdy, Wes.

Hello, Mr. Fallow.

Oh, I... I don't believe
you've met my wife, Wes.

Ellie, this is Wes Parmalee.

Oh, yes. The new foreman.

I'm real happy to
meet you, Mrs. Fallow.

Are you from around
these parts, Wes?

Well, I was born in Texas
but I've been here and there.

All around you might say.

Worked up in
Colorado for a while.

I see. It's a pretty
country up there.

Yes, ma'am.

Of course I don't think there's a bush or
a stone as pretty as any here in Texas.

It is special, isn't it?

Well, I didn't wanna
take your time.

I'm just looking for Ray.

I haven't seen Ray this
morning. Have you, Clayton?

No, I suppose you've
checked out the stables?

Well, it was nice meeting you.

I've been looking forward to
meeting you too, Mrs. Farlow.

I hope you'll feel at home here.

Thank you.

Now, there's something
about that man I like.

I think he's gonna
work out real fine.

You're right. Oh, my.

I have another beautiful
gown. Would you like to see it?

No, thanks. I think I'm probably
going to end up having a gown made...

and I wanted to look
at styles. Thanks.

- You're very welcome.
- Goodbye.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye. Thank you.

Uh-huh.

Wedding gowns. Ha-ha.

Can you believe it? If you
had told me two months ago...

that Bobby and I were going to
get married again, I'd have told you...

- to get your head examined.
- Heh.

I've been thinking. Uh...

Considering your
relationship with him...

I think the first thing you should do
is make contact with Senator Culver.

I have.

Dave is behind us 100 percent.

As a matter of fact,
he has already talked...

to some of his
colleagues on the Hill.

- The Hill?
- Capitol Hill.

Good. We need to get busy,
we need to build a war chest.

We need to get enough
money behind us...

so that we have
something to work with.

I've already started to do that.

- Have you?
- Yes.

Now, you see this?

This is a complete list of everyone
who has attended the meetings, okay?

You take half. I'll take half.

We'll call them and see
who wants to contribute.

That's good. That's fine, because it
is important that we do this thing right.

We gotta get into Washington, stir up
excitement. We gotta let them have it.

There's a reporter from
Channel 12 on the phone.

They heard about the lobby.

I tell you, you know,
you get a good idea...

and news travels like wildfire.

He'd like to do an
on-camera interview.

Tell him I'll be with
him in a minute.

You know, I got a feeling I'm gonna
spend a lot of my time with these guys.

Cliff, I'm sorry but
he didn't ask for you.

He'd like to speak
to Mrs. Krebbs.

Oh, you wanna handle that?

Um... Yeah.

I'll take it out there.

Excuse me.

Sue Ellen, take it easy.

- You don't want to overdo it.
- Oh.

I'm not gonna
overdo it, Miss Ellie.

I wanna push myself
as hard as I can.

I've got so much poison in my
system that I just wanna squeeze it out.

I know, but that means
you're gonna give up drinking.

Among other things.

What other things?

The reason for my drinking.

Well, I'm... I think
that's very nice.

But, you know, sometimes...

we have a hard time finding
out what those reasons are.

Oh, I know what the
reason is, Miss Ellie.

And it is not my loving husband.

I mean, it's not only him.

Don't get me wrong...

but J.R. does his
best to try to hurt me...

at every chance he gets.

But you know what? I let him.

Yes, you do.

And when are you
gonna stop letting him?

I have.

Really?

Miss Ellie, I'm just not
gonna take it anymore.

J.R. is a very hard man, and
I'm gonna learn how to handle it.

Well, not if you
keep on drinking.

I already told you. It's over.

Well...

I hope so.

Cassie, would you
please take their order?

- Hello, Jeremy.
- Bobby.

I thought we'd make
a threesome out of it.

Well, you said you had an idea for
Ewing Oil. J.R. is half of Ewing Oil.

Don't worry. I'll
pick up the check.

Oh, it's always good
to have you along, J.R.

Can I get you something?

- Bourbon and branch, darling.
- Scotch and water.

Well, Independent
Oil's in trouble.

Oh, bad news just trickling
down to you, Jeremy?

The way I see it
is like a tree dying.

First, you see a little
yellow way up at the top.

Gradually it spreads.

Before you know
it, the tree falls over.

Jeremy, what's on your mind?

I've heard you started
closing your strippers.

That's right, we're in a bit of a
crunch. I'm sure you're feeling it too.

Well, we are. But Westar
is in a different position.

We're more diverse.

Our cash flow doesn't depend
on what we pull out of the ground.

We could cap every well we've
got. We'd still be in good shape.

While it makes sense for you
independents to pull in your horns...

we've started to expand.

We'd like to expand
in your direction.

Hmm.

What kind of price
you got in mind?

My accountants are putting
together a very attractive otter.

Oh.

Why don't you put your
accountants together with, say...

Stonehurst and the Seven
Sisters and 15 more if you like...

and come up with a really
good offer. A really good one.

And I'll laugh
right in your face.

I'm not gonna sell Ewing
Oil to you, and you know it.

- Is that the way you feel, Bobby?
- Of course it is.

Well, that's too bad.

There are a lot of independents.
Why don't you go after them?

I intend to. I
came to you first.

Well, of course you did.

If Ewing Oil will fall,
the rest will go cheap.

It would definitely be easier.

I appreciate the compliment,
but we're not for sale.

I'm not convinced oil prices are
gonna stay down that long, Jeremy.

Besides that, we have a
plan to get them back up again.

Yes, I heard about your lobby.

The only way I know
to get prices back up...

is to wipe out Saudi Arabia.

Hmm. That's not a half bad
idea. Damn tent dwellers.

Because of them flooding the
market, we had to cut our price in crude.

”The don't you get venue”
a coume of bombs. JR?

I'd be glad to pay for
your round-trip ticket.

Jeremy, I didn't know
you had a sense of humor.

Yeah. Mm.

- Are you all right?
- Yes, I...

Driving a car like that,
he could have killed you.

I'm okay, thank you.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

- Ray.
- Hi.

Just heading back to Southfork.

- In that?
- Yeah.

Clay and I bought horses at auction.
Now it's just getting them on back.

Truck takes up half the street.

Yeah, I know.

I just wanted to stop by...

and see how
you're getting along.

Well, how are you
getting along, Jenna?

Still sorting out the mess.

Let me give you a
hand. I'll be glad to help.

You got your hands full
with your friends over there.

I tell you what,
though, if you'd like...

take them home and come on
back and have dinner with us.

Well, that'd be real fine.

Oh, no, wait. I can't.

Miss Ellie is having a
dinner for Bobby and Pam's...

Oh, I can't believe I said
that. Jenna, I am sorry.

It's all right.

I'm gonna have
to get used to it.

There is no more Bobby
and Jenna now. It's...

It's Bobby and Pam.

I'm sorry.

- Kendall, is Jack Ewing waiting for me?
- I don't think so.

Oh. Sly, I'm having a
meeting with Jack Ewing.

- Is he have yet?
- No.

- Well, has he called?
- No.

Well, I guess I'll meet
him at home tonight.

How about General
Langley Is he back in town?

He should be.

I want you to fix up a lunch
with him right away, you hear?

That damn Jack Ewing. Ten
percent has gone straight to his head.

Who does he think he is anyway?

Oh, hello, Mama.

Hello, J.R.

Well, it's quite a surprise.

I had to be in town today,
so I thought I'd stop by.

Good. Good. We don't see
much of you around here anymore.

I wanna talk to
you about tonight.

Sit down, JR.

Oh, sure.

Well, what about tonight?

It's the first time that Bobby's brought
Pam ever since their re-engagement.

And I want things to go well.

What's that got to do with me?

Well, J.R. I know that you
and Pam don't get along...

but I want you to put that aside
and welcome her back into the family.

Everyone's been
on edge these days.

Donna and Ray are fighting,
and you and Sue Ellen.

So please, let's
not make it worse.

Well, I'll do the best I can.

But if Bobby's to many that woman,
he deserves everything he's gonna get.

Now, that's exactly the kind of
remark I hope you keep to yourself.

All right. Yeah, all
right. I'll do my best.

And then the monster
got closer and closer.

He slid through the slimy, gunky
water towards the little boy...

who wasn't paying
nearly enough attention.

And then the monster raised
one big feet out of the water...

a foot bigger than the
entire Ewing building.

And you know
what was at the end?

- What?
- His toes.

Uh-oh. We're
gonna get in trouble.

- We are?
- Yes, because Mommy's coming...

and we're not ready. Ha-ha.

Would you two hurry?
You are going to be late.

See? What did I
tell you? She's mad.

I'm going to be if you
don't get out of there.

We have a choice. We get
out of the water just like this.

- Or the monster slowly turns.
- No, Bobby, now wait a minute.

- I spent an hour and a half get...
- He approaches.

- I am not joking.
- Christopher?

- Do it. Throw her in.
- Throw her in.

No!

You know, if you
had thrown me in...

Oops. See? She's gonna get
madder and madder. Better go.

Come on. Here we go.

Out of the pool. Give
your mommy a hug.

No, how about a
kiss when you're dry?

- Come on, Christopher.
- Your mother never wants to have fun.

You're a bad influence
on your son, you know?

Just because Bobby's
bringing that woman for dinner...

doesn't mean he has to be
late. He knows what time we eat.

Oh, J.R.

Your mama's worked very hard this
evening, J.R. Let's not ruin it for her.

- Hi, everybody.
- Hmm.

Oh, Sue Ellen, you look
radiant. Doesn't she?

- Yes, you do.
- Well, so do you.

And with good reason.

I heard you really took over
that meeting yesterday afternoon.

I'm sorry.

Ray, you should've been there.
The look on Cliff Barnes' face...

when he found out that Donna
was gonna chair that committee.

I tell you, it would
have made your day.

Well, maybe it wouldn't have.

Jack, I'm so glad
you could come.

Thank you. It's kind of
you to invite me, Miss Ellie.

I'm sorry we're late.
It was all her fault.

- There they are. Hi.
- Hi, Mama.

- Miss Ellie, hello.
- Hello, dear.

- Ray.
- How are you?

We were to get together
today. Where were you?

Yeah, I thought about it. But I figured
I'd be seeing you tonight anyway.

So you didn't even
bother to show up.

You given any thought
to that offer I made you?

Not much.

It means you didn't
mention any figures.

Oh, I wouldn't worry about that.

But I'll tell you one thing.

It'll be more money than you'll ever
see hanging on to that 10 percent.

Yup, probably would be.

But, you know, I don't
need much to get along on.

What I do need is a
bit of fun right now.

I figure I'll have more
of that if I hold on to it...

and be a real sharp
pain in your side.

- Excuse me. Dinner's ready.
- Thank you, Teresa.

- Dinner's ready, everybody.
- Oh.

I don't know what
you were talking about.

It looks like you have
indigestion already.

What a shame.

What is it, Cliff?

I don't know.

Is it me?

If it was you, I'd tell
you. I don't know.

Well, the reason why I'm asking is
because it I knew that it was my fault...

- maybe I could do something about it.
- I don't know whose fault it is.

I don't know. All I know
is it's just not working.

It hasn't been working since
you lost that court battle.

Maybe that's it, Cliff.

I mean. That was
real important to you.

Maybe losing it like that
affected you physically.

Okay, now you're some
kind of expert, huh?

- No.
- Well, look.

Has this happened to you before?

Never, but I have read about it.

Well, I'll tell you
when it started.

It was when we got married.

No, I don't think so. The
night that we got married we...

I am telling you that
is when it started.

Ever since then it
just comes and goes.

So, what are you saying? That
getting married caused this problem?

Look, I'm saying that that's as good
a reason as losing a lawsuit, all right?

I don't know what I'm saying. I'm
saying I'm upset about the lobby.

I'm upset about Donna
Krebbs getting credit for my idea.

I don't know what...

- Where are you going?
- I'm gonna go downstairs.

Do some work. I sure as heck
am not gonna sleep. It's still early.

Nothing is working between us.

And I tell you, I would understand
it you just wanted to walk out on me.

Oh, Cliff, don't be silly.

Everything's going
to straighten out.

Well, I think you ought
to consider it, Pam.

You won't have the room here.

No, but she'll have
something else though, J.R.

That's right, I'll have Bobby.

Yes, and all the
rest of the family.

Family? Well, look
around the table.

I can't see family
from the outsiders.

Excuse me, Mama.

- Welcome home, Pam.
- You remember how he is.

Oh, it's nice to see
he hasn't changed.

- Ha-ha.
- Thank you.

Excuse me.

Thank you, Miss Ellie. It
was a wonderful dinner.

Good. You know,
you're always welcome.

- Thank you.
- Oh, excuse me, Jack.

- Sure.
- Teresa.

- Say, Jack.
- Yeah.

Did you have a
good time tonight?

At least your mother
made me feel welcome.

Yeah. I hope you
enjoyed your evening...

because it's the last one
you're gonna be having here.

Really? That's not the
impression I got from everybody.

Well, let me give you
another impression.

I'm tired of half-breeds and moochers
and strangers hanging around here.

There's nothing I can do
about that 10 percent of yours.

But that does not give
you a key to this house.

I don't want you
sponging here anymore.

You know, JR...

you really are a
miserable human being.

I'll be a lot less miserable with
you out of my life, that's for sure. Hi.

Aren't you two coming in?

No, I'm afraid not,
Clayton. I gotta run off.

- So soon?
- Well, don't try and talk him out of it.

J.R., it's always a
pleasure to visit with you.

Clayton, tell Miss Ellie that
I'll be up to visit her real soon.

Yeah. Well, don't count on it.

What the hell is going on?

The boy has no manners.

No manners at all.

As far as I know, he only
has the one sister, Jamie.

Any particular place
you want me to start?

Well, according
to his passport...

he left Alaska for
Europe a few years ago.

Did a lot of traveling. Those are the
years I want you to concentrate on.

- Yes, sir.
- I am not interested...

in his kindness for children.

Just a moment. J.R., there's
a Miss Winger on Line 1.

- Oh?
- I'll get back to you as quick as I can.

- Thank you, Harry. I'll take it in here.
- Okay.

Hello, Mandy.

J.R., I need to see you.

Sure. Tonight maybe?

Na. No, I need to see you now.

Please, it's important.

I'm at the parking lot on the
top of the Westin Building.

On top of the Westin Building?
What's the matter? What's wrong?

J.R., please. Just come
now. I'm really scared.

All right. All right.

Just two years ago,
bankers were waiting in line...

- to loan us money.
- Well, it's the sign of the times, John.

But back in your office...

we were talking about
shutting down the strippers.

Well, okay, I can understand
that. Twelve, 15 barrels a day...

that's not profitable.

But suppose you get one of
those injection systems, you know?

Pump some steam down there.
You could be talking about...

Mr. Ewing, you could be talking about
30, 40, may be even 50 barrels a day.

John, have you ever
priced one of those units out?

- I know they're not cheap.
- Ha-ha. I bet they're not cheap.

They're more expensive
to keep in operation.

I can't think of worse time to be
spending money than right now.

Just look at this
town, Mr. Ewing.

It used to be so crowded.

It would take you five
minutes to cross that street.

Stores were full, real estate
was selling at a premium.

Now, just look at it.

I hope you're not trying to
blame Ewing Oil for all of this.

I'm saying you
are our last hope.

Great Ark Oil shut
down, Wildwood, Lyceum.

Every last one of them
has shutdown operations.

They had to. It's a
matter of economics.

Damn Easterners.

Not one of them had
a daddy like yours.

Get out there and work
with the men right in the field.

Boy...

you sure do know how
to twist an arm, don't you?

Arm twister's not so bad.

It's when you got
no job to go to.

When you got no paycheck
to bring home to your kids...

that's when you
start to feel it.

Like, whoever it was set fire
to your Navarro Field there.

Well, there's no
excuse for that.

Maybe not.

But there was a reason.

Whoever did that...
was hurting so bad...

he just had to let that hurt
out the best way he could.

- What's going on, honey?
- Oh, J.R., I'm so scared.

I wanted to call you last night, but
I knew you were with your family.

J.R., I think somebody's
trying to kill me.

What?

I was walking down
2nd Street yesterday.

Now, I guess I wasn't
paying any attention.

Suddenly this car came
racing around the comer...

and it missed me by inches.

- Yeah, go on.
- Oh, I stumbled back...

and this guy caught me. These
people helped me pick up my things.

- Darling, it was just an accident.
- No, that's what I thought.

But then later I came to
the galleria to do shopping...

and there was this
man looking at me.

- Mandy, all men look at you.
- No, J.R., he was following me.

- How do you know that?
Because I tested him.

I walked a little way
and he came closer.

And then I walked some more...

and every time I moved,
he stayed with me.

- Did he approach you? Say anything?
- No, but there was something else.

When I first saw him, I
was sure I recognized him...

but I didn't know from where.

And then later when I got back
to my apartment, I realized...

J.R., he was the same
man who caught me...

when that car
almost ran me down.

Are you sure?

Yes, it took me a couple
of hours, but I'm positive.

It's over now.

- You haven't seen him?
- No.

It's just one of those creeps.

You're a beautiful woman.
You've got to watch out.

The world is full of
animals these days.

But you know what
really worries me?

When that car almost hit me,
and that man grabbed me...

maybe he was really trying
to push me in front of it.

Pretty good.

Didn't hear you ride up.

Back in the Old West you
could've been a dead man.

Are you all right?

Sure I am. Why?

I was just asking. I've
been looking for you.

I've got some account
books to go over with you.

Anytime.

Any more bullets in that?

You have a pretty
good shot yourself.

Used to be.

Four bullets, four hits. Can't
do much better than that.

There used to be a time
one bullet would have done it.

I'd hit the first tin can...

and the others would
have followed it down.

Well, I hope you're not selling
any bridges today. Ha-ha.

I've been wondering something,
if you don't mind my asking.

What's that?

Well, I've been wondering how
come you just moved off to Southfork.

Your brothers are still living there,
except for the one in California.

They're my half-brothers.

You're pretty close with
them though, aren't you?

Well...

I never felt too comfortable
up there at the big house.

I always figured
that was theirs.

When it came to business, they're the
ones that followed in Jock's footsteps.

They went into the oil
business, you mean?

Yep, I kept pretty
much to the ranch.

Jock died.

I guess I felt more
like an outsider again.

I'll bet he didn't
consider you an outsider.

From what I've seen...

I'll bet your daddy was just as
proud of you as he ever was of them.

Bobby, where you
been? I haven't seen you.

I called in, you were
out. I went down to Pride.

- Pride?
- Yeah.

The foreman asked
me to come down.

I wanna keep that field open.

You what? Bobby.

Bobby, what are
you talking about?

J.R., we have got a lot of
loyal people working for us.

- They deserve better.
- What do you think you're doing?

Aren't we losing money
because of those Arab countries?

Now you wanna start
supporting Texas?

J.R., there's got to be more to
Ewing Oil than just making money.

Maybe so, but I
don't know what it is.

Now, listen to me, Bob.

If Washington wants to pay
welfare, that is their business...

- but I'm not going to.
- I'm serious.

Well, so am I.

If you don't have
the stomach, I'll do it.

That has nothing to do with it.

You have been making
decisions for a long time...

and I've gone along.
This one is mine.

- The fuel stays open...
- If that's your decision...

- it's the dumbest you made.
- Maybe it is.

Who do you think you
are anyhow, Santa Claus?

You ought to be trying to figure
out a way to get the price back up.

We've got the lobby.

Well, like Wendell says,
that's just not enough.

Well, all right, you tell
me. What do we do?

I don't know yet, Bobby.

But I'll be damned if I'm gonna watch
everything I've worked for dribble away.

- Mama, Clayton.
- Good morning, J.R.

- Good morning, J.R.
- Hey, Donna.

You're a little
late, aren't you?

Late for what?

If you're gonna be running this lobby,
you ought to be hard at work by now.

J.R., it's only 8:30.

But it's late! in Washington. Anybody
who'd wanna get anything done...

- they're at their desk by now.
- I don't have a desk.

Until we rent an office, I'm
gonna be working out of here.

I tell you something else.

If you don't stop pestering me, I'm
gonna quit and let you do it yourself.

You have no reason to get testy.

- Good morning.
- Good morning.

Morning.

- Miss Ellie, for you.
- Thank you.

And... Clayton.

Thank you.

Good Lord.

- Will you look at this?
- Hmm.

And what on earth is that?

You didn't send
away for that, did you?

No, Miss Ellie. I don't need
stuff like that these days.

Do I, J.R.?

Don't be disgusting.

Well, maybe we should buy Pam
some of these for her honeymoon.

Have you started
nipping this morning?

Leave her alone,
J.R.. She's just teasing.

I don't understand how
a girl could pose for that.

- No decent woman would.
- J.R., those pictures aren't that bad.

Mama, it's one thing in the
privacy of your bedroom...

but to let yourself
be photographed...

and for a magazine. You
have to be some harlot.

Oh, don't tell me you're getting
prudish all of sudden, J.R.

That has nothing to do with
it. It's a matter of self-respect.

The man doesn't have a decent
word to say about anybody.

- I warned you.
- Telling me I was trying...

to ingratiate myself
into the family.

Jack, just calm down. Here,
you want some more coffee?

No, no, no.

I wish your brother came
to this conclusion earlier.

I mean, at least before he let him
yank Ewing Oil out of our hands.

Don't start, Cliff.

Hey, I'm curious, Jack. I mean,
why did J.R. tum against you?

He's got a knack for making enemies,
but he does it when he's got a reason.

He wanted to buy back my 10
percent, and I wasn't willing to sell...

and certainly not to him.

Hey, you know, I don't
blame you for that. You know?

But let me ask you a question.

How come you're holding
on to that 10 percent?

It's for sure that he would
make you a silent partner.

With the price of 0” now, there's
no way you would see a profit.

What, he didn't offer
you enough money?

I don't know. You know,
we never discussed price.

But the whole thing was
not a question of money.

I know why you
didn't sell to him.

You wanted to get back
at him, didn't you, Jack?

We all know how J.R. doesn't
wanna have any outsiders...

own a piece of Ewing Oil.

Hey, I figured it
would be like that.

But now, listen to me.

I got a way to get back
at him that is terrific.

I'm telling you, Jack. You can
have your cake and eat it too.

You sell me those shares.

- What?
- That's right, you heard me.

You sell me those shares. I'll make
you the sweetest deal you've ever heard.

For God's sake, Cliff. Aren't
you in enough trouble already?

Let me run my own business.

No. I'm serious. With your 10 percent
that would give me the legal right...

to examine the books of
Ewing Oil any time I wanted to.

I mean, I could cause that
man so much trouble. Ha-ha.

It'd be a joy.

Wouldn't it be better it for just once
you didn't try to get back at J.R.?

She doesn't
understand. You don't.

Telling me not to get back at
J.R. is like telling me not to breathe.

Take a lesson from your brother.

What do you say? I'm telling you,
nothing could crank that man up faster...

than for me to own a piece.

You're probably right, but, I'll tell
you, I'm really not interested in selling.

- Good.
- Yeah, well, that's okay.

That's okay. But I'll tell
you, promise me something.

If you ever change your mind,
huh. You give me first chance?

Hey, we're family, right?

- Yeah, you said it. Ha-ha.
- Ha-ha.

No, I am not asking for campaign
contributions. That's later.

What we need right now is
just some operating funds.

Huh? Well, that's
quite generous.

Thank you, Cal.
We appreciate it.

I'll tell you what, I'll see you at the
meeting. Mm-hm. You too. Bye-bye.

Busy lady.

Yeah, it's getting that way.

- Can I ask you something?
- Sure.

When you were thinking
about taking this job...

did you ever consider
at all how I'd feel about it?

I knew how you'd feel about it.

You know what I was
thinking about last night?

No.

About the fundamental
difference that you said we had.

You know what?

I always felt like
that difference...

was my problem.

I mean, how could it be yours?

- You had class. You had breeding.
- Ray.

All those years
you made me feel...

like it I could only
get myself together...

if I could only make
something out of myself...

then maybe you
could be proud of me.

I never said that.

I never said anything like that.

Maybe not exactly in those
words, but you made me believe it.

I didn't make you believe it.

I didn't make you believe anything. You
have a mind of your own, just like I do.

I guess you can't accept the fact
that I just don't think the way you do.

Oh, I realized that.

I realized something else too.

No matter what I do, no
matter what I ever could do...

I would never be
good enough for you.

Who have you been talking to?

Not as a cowboy...
not as a businessman.

Even if I went into
politics like you...

and I went all the way
to the White House...

it wouldn't be enough for you...

because you don't
care about my success.

You only care about yours.

That's not true.

- No?
- No.

I saw you on the
news being interviewed.

You love it.

That's right.

I do love it.

There isn't anything
wrong with that.

There's nothing wrong
with wanting to do more...

than just sit around.

Well.

Then I, uh... I guess, uh...

that's it.

See, I've been changing.

And I realize now...

that you need your freedom.

And I'd be willing
to give it to you.

But I need something too.

I need someone
to be there for me.

You're no longer
gonna be that person.

Well, nothing specific,
but I'm working on it.

There's a limit as to how long we
can let Arabs hold us over a barrel.

And I have reached it.
I'll tell you that right now.

What can I do for you?

Well, I was looking
for the owner.

Well, you're looking
at the owner. Ha-ha.

What do you need?

Actually, everything.

Yeah, well, we got it.

Look around, honey.
Take what you need.

But there is no trying on.
Now, do you understand?

Yes, I understand,
but I don't think you do.

When I said
everything, I mean...

the merchandise, the
mannequins, the store, the lease.

- What are you talking about?
- I wanna buy your business.

- Will you sell it?
- Will I sell it?

Are you pulling my leg? 01
course, I'll sell anything. I'm for sale.

Then I'll take you too.

Get out of here. I have
no time for fooling around.

Would you mind?

“Fifty thousand dollars.“

Hey, wait a minute.
My business isn't...

Or maybe it is.

No, it isn't.

Except to me.

You see, Mr. Valentine, I
ran a little check on you.

You are Valentine, aren't you?

- Yeah, I'm Valentine.
- Good.

Now, if you accept this...

sign these.

Ninety percent of
the business is mine.

You keep 10... for incentive.

I want you to stay right here...

and manage things the
way you always have.

But I'll call the shots.

Maybe we'll even see a profit.

Agreed?

I don't know, it's all 50...

Mr. Valentine, think.

In your wildest imagination...

could you ever dream
of getting a deal like this?

You're a real sharp lady.

Where did you learn
to do business like this?

I'm married to an expert.

Maybe some of it rubbed off.

Thank you.

Sony. JR.

The foursome ahead of
us were playing so slow...

I thought they were
dragging a dead man.

Ha-ha-ha. Just got here myself.

The usual, general?

- I see no reason to change.
- Yes, sir.

Sit down. Sit down.

Yeah, you're looking
real good out there.

Real good.

Good, I gotta tell you, it breaks
my heart to see a man like you...

wasting his time playing golf.

What else am I gonna do?

They put me out to pasture.

Yes, and it's a crying shame.

It's like squandering
a natural resource.

Ha. I think you'd get an argument
out of a lot of liberal papers on that.

I had a feeling that after listening
to your retirement speech...

that you might be
going into politics.

You lay down a pretty
good platform for yourself.

- You mean about that Arab oil thing?
- Yes.

And you were 100 percent right.

Those... Yeah, those Gulf
nations had the West over a barrel.

Still do.

I keep telling we can't let those
foreigners control the world's economy.

Yeah, but trouble is what
are we gonna do about it, huh?

Plenty... if we had the guts.

You know. I just
can't help wondering...

with all our weapons
and manpower...

why we couldn't sneak...

a tactical force in there,
and take those fields out.

Tactical force?

Ought to send in a bunch of
bombers and blow the damn fields up.

Well, general, I think
that's a little much.

The hell it would.

Destroy their equipment,
set those fields afire.

You'll see what'll happen
to the price of American oil.

Well, yeah. That would
be ideal, of course...

but it would be hard keeping
that a secret as to who did it.

Why pussyfoot around?

I say let them know we're
coming just like we did in Grenada.

I still think we ought to get
some small force in there...

something like the
Bay of Pigs operation.

Bay of Pigs
operation didn't work.

It could have.

Yeah, maybe.

If we'd done it right.

I guess if you got a real good
crackerjack team in there...

and set off some charges.
I guess you could do it.

But the right way
is the open way.

There's not much
chance of that happening.

Not with those knee-jerk
liberals running our government.

Ha-ha-ha. Kind of fun to
think about though, isn't it?

Cheers to your good health.
