NARRATOR:
Last on Dallas:

You've just been fired.

Did you ever consider
taking a sensitivity class?

What is wrong with you, Bobby?

I now pronounce you husband and wife.
You may kiss the bride.

- What's the matter, J.R., afraid of the dark?
- I need our family.

The family we used to have.

Is it all right if I call you Daddy too?

I got a good idea
who's living in that house in Malibu.

- I'm Kit Marlowe, by the way.
- Jory Taylor.

I've always wanted you to be on top.
Just lose yourself for a while.

I have a feeling
we'll be seeing a lot of one another.

I'd like that.

- What do you think?
- I think you're putting on weight.

I'm going downstairs to watch TV.

- I didn't mean to get personal.
- That's all right.

So your mother gave them this place?
Is she dead too?

This isn't Ewing Oil and it never will be,
until a Ewing is here running it.

Well, there is one here, Daddy.

Anyways, I'm half Ewing
and I'm half owner.

Next week's my birthday
and my mother's flying in to be with me.

Now I know why you married her.

You may have the name, boy, but it'll never
mean anything to you until you earn it.

Mr. Ewing? My name is Kinsey Richards.

I believe Mr. Breslin called you about me.

Yes, he did. Thank you for coming out here.
What have you got?

I checked with my contact
in the phone company...

...and she traced Marjory Taylor's calls.

The only calls made to Europe
within the last three months...

...were to her mother's London hotel,
two and a half months ago.

That would be just before Hillary Taylor
followed my wife and me to Paris.

The dates check out.

We're also checking the subject's calls
made within the United States...

...to see if any were made to her mother.

I'm sorry we don't have more
at the moment.

Well...

[SIGHS]

...it's a start.

If there's anything more
I can do to help...

I'll let you know, thank you.

[CAR HORN HONKS]

Can I have some service?

Help yourself.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Got a problem?

No, no.

Ain't you never pumped your gas before?

[CHUCKLES]

Not since I was a kid.

How lung's this place been like this
anyhow?

Self-serve? A couple of months. Why?

If I remember correctly,
it used to be called Harley's.

It had a big old wooden garage
right over there.

My daddy would bring us boys
down here on Saturdays...

...and we'd watch the mechanic
give a lube job and an oil change.

My daddy would swap stories
with Mr. Harley.

They were good times.

Yeah, well, we ain't got no time
to sit around and tell stories no more.

Hell, I never see the same face
come in twice.

- Well, that's a shame.
- Tell you the truth, I like it better this way.

The more gas we pump,
the faster we pump it...

...the more money we make.

Pay over there.

All right.

You know,
things ain't what they used to be.

That's the damn truth.

Christopher, I miss you too, son.

Well, what are you doing?
Why aren't you riding your horse?

Okay, listen, as soon as I come back,
I'll take you out riding.

Well, if all goes well, late next week.

I'm getting real close
to the lady responsible for April's death.

I will, I'll be real careful. Okay?

As soon as I wrap things up,
I'll be on the first plane out.

I miss you too, son.
I love you. Goodbye.

Hi, uh, I didn't wanna sneak up on you.

- What can I do for you, Kit?
- Came over to borrow some coffee.

I'm all out of coffee myself.

All right. The coffee was just an excuse.

Oh?

Are you really going home soon?

That conversation
was none of your business.

I know and I'm sorry.
I actually came to talk about Jory.

I've know her for a really long time.

There have been a couple of guys in her life,
but nobody as serious as you.

Kit, Jory and I are not serious.
We're friends.

Maybe she told you, I just lost my wife.
I'm not looking for anything serious.

Then maybe it's a good idea
if you did leave.

Because I think if you stay any longer,
Jory's gonna get very hurt.

RICARDO: J.R., I would like to introduce
Carmen Esperanza...

...LeeAnn De La Vega's sister-in-Iaw.

The famous J.R. Ewing.
It is a pleasure to meet you.

Oh, and it's a pleasure
to meet you too, sefiora.

I'm very flattered
you came all this way to see me.

Ricardo said it would be
in my best interest.

Yeah. Please, sit down.

Yeah, well,
it could be in both of our interests.

You want revenge against LeeAnn
for stealing your company.

I want revenge against her
for killing my brother.

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know.

Roberto died eight years ago
of a heart attack.

The doctor said
it was caused by overwork...

...but she is the one
who pushed him into it.

That low-class nothing never gave a damn
about my brother or his company.

She only cared as long as
both were making enough money...

...to keep her in jewels and designer dresses
for the rest of her life.

Sefiora De La Vega never really ran
her husband's oil company.

It was only after she heard Ewing Oil was
for sale that she even took an interest in it.

If I could find a chink in her armor,
do you think she'd be able to fight back?

I doubt it.

She's short of cash at the moment,
and very vulnerable to attack.

And that is because she gave
Ewing Oil away for practically nothing.

Oh.

Is there any way I could get a hold
of the De La Vega books?

Oh, they are already on the way.

One of the vice presidents
went to school with Roberto...

...and he will do anything for me.

[SIGHS]

Which is more than I can say
for my husband.

Sefior Esperanza
also works for De La Vega Oil.

- Maybe he could help us as well.
CARMEN: Oh, no, no, no.

He is completely
under the thumb of LeeAnn. He's...

He's not a real man.

In fact...

...he isn't any kind of man at all.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that.

Is there any way I could reach you
to find out when the books arrive?

I'm staying at the Quorum Hotel.

Everything should be ready for you
by tonight.

Good.

[CROWD MURMURING]

[MUSIC PLAYING LOUDLY]

Hi, when did you get here?

- What?
- When did you get here?

[MUSIC STOPS]

Kit told me she talked to you.

Listen, Bobby, she was way off-base.
She had no right to jump to conclusions.

It's all right, Jory. There's no harm done.

Oops! Ha-ha-ha.

Hi, Jory, Bobby.

Well, what are you doing
in a dump like this?

I, uh, told John I'd take him slumming.
Besides, I need to talk to you.

Uh, Dana, babe...

Oh! Ha. Jory, Bobby, this is John.

Ciao.

Jory, let's talk.

Dana, I'm working.

Yeah, I can see that.

What do you want?

- Look, I need a favor.
JORY: Mm-hm.

John has a friend
coming in town tomorrow...

...and Kit promised
to go on a double date with us.

But her flight schedule got switched
and she's gotta work tomorrow night.

- So can you take her place?
- I don't know.

These guys are big spenders.
It is going to be a fabulous evening.

- Yeah, I bet.
- Scout's honor.

You told me they kicked you out
of Girl Scouts, remember?

[CLEARS THROAT]

Well, good evening.

Well, look who's here.

J.R.:
Are you surprised?

I thought you'd be running around town
trying to get Ewing Oil back.

Oh, not now, it's 5:30.

Time for another Southfork tradition,
pre-dinner cocktails.

What a terrific idea.
Can I get you a drink, Daddy?

Sure, a bourbon on the rocks, please.
Thank you, James.

[J. R. CLEARS THROAT]

You know, my daddy
started this tradition years ago.

He thought it'd be a good way
to get the family together...

...and catch up on the day's events.
And we are family, aren't we?

Even after today?

Especially after today.

You know, James,
I didn't think you had it in you.

You still think I'm not ready
to earn the Ewing name?

You watch me.

J.R.:
Oh, I'm going to.

But be careful, you don't wanna
disgrace the name of the man...

...who founded this family's company.

You know,
I wish you'd known your granddaddy.

His shoes are gonna be hard to fill.
Maybe you can do it.

No kidding? Heh.

You really think I'm ready
to run Ewing Oil?

Yeah, maybe.

Whether you like it or not, you got
my blood coursing through your veins.

I'm rooting for you, buy.
I want you to make me proud.

Well, still got time to wash up
before dinner.

Would you all excuse me?

All this saccharine talk's
making me lose my appetite.

Can you believe this man?

You're not buying any of this, are you?

Hey, heh, you know me.

So I took a meeting
with these network guys, right?

And it's like,
"Let's visit The Brady Bunch."

I mean, give me a break.
These guys were fresh out of junior high.

Now, I'm not an old man
by any stretch of the imagination...

...but not one of these guys remember
anything before The Love Boat...

...and they're telling me,
"We want high concept."

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
I got a great 30 minute drama.

It's about this dwarf that sings backwards.
Sounds high concept, right? Sure it does.

I figure,
you take a woman that talks to logs...

...I don't know, a couple of, um...

Of, uh... Ahem.

Maybe a couple of, uh...

...jelly doughnuts.

What are you talking about?

I'm sorry, what did you say?

Did you see where Dana went to?
I gotta find her. Dana, honey.

Sorry, John,
Jory and I are still negotiating.

Well, negotiate tomorrow. I got reservations
at Spago's and we're already late.

So find your purse, powder your nose
and let's get out of here.

I left my purse in the car.
I thought we'd only be a minute.

[SIGHS]

You got your purse with you, honey?
So we can do up her face or whatever.

It's behind the bar.

Good, good, good.

Honestly, Johnny, if you're in this much
of a hurry, I can do this in the car.

I don't want you yelling because you got
lipstick all over that pretty face of yours.

- Here it is.
- I'll watch it.

Thanks.

Okay, baby, you ready?
We're, uh, late. We should get going, okay?

- I'll see you, kiddo.
- Okay.

Come on, come on, come on.

Ciao, Bobby.

Well, that was weird.
Would you like another drink?

No, no, I'm fine, thanks.

Okay, in that case, let me get rid of this
and get back to work.

J.R.:
Good night, son.

I hope you feel better real soon.

MICHELLE: That snake's a lot smarter
than I gave him credit for.

JAMES:
What are you talking about?

MICHELLE: If he yelled and screamed at us,
you'd have been fighting right by my side.

But he starts playing Daddy...

...and you wag your tail
and start begging for another bone.

That isn't true.
Don't you get tired of all the fighting?

[SIGHS]

Listen to yourself.

How can there be any fighting
when you've given up?

I haven't. But just once,
don't you think J.R. could be sincere?

Sincere? J.R.?

Ha! He's really sucked you
into his little net, hasn't he?

With all that talk about family
and being a Ewing.

Hey, what do you know about family?
Running out on me and your sister.

For crying out loud, Michelle,
you didn't show up at her wedding.

You don't even stick around
for your own honeymoon.

Don't bother leaving tonight
because this time, I have plans.

[PHONE RINGS]

J.R. Ewing here.

Oh, thank you, Carmen.
Yeah, I'll be over right away.

MICHELLE:
The wedding was beautiful.

It just happened so fast
I didn't have time to invite you.

You'd love him, Mama, really.

James is wonderful.

He's loving and sweet.

I look at him
and I just think what a lucky girl I am.

I know that we're gonna have the same
wonderful marriage just like you and Dad.

CARMEN:
J.R.?

Yeah?

CARMEN:
Did you find anything yet?

No, not yet.

You know, in a way,
I will be very sorry if you do find something.

Oh?

And why's that?

Because then I will have to go back
to Venezuela...

-...and to my boring little husband.
- Heh, heh.

Well, that is too bad.

Of course, seeing my lovely sister-in-Iaw
in ruins might be worth it.

Oh, definitely, yes.

J.R...

...you are going to make this
a memorable visit for me, aren't you?

Oh, my Lord, we got her. We got her.

What? What did you find?

Something that will bring her walls
tumbling down...

...and as an added bonus,
I get my old friend Barnes as well.

[LAUGHS]

Well, then I think
it is definitely time to celebrate.

Well, I'd love to stay but
I've gotta start putting my plan in motion.

J.R., if you do not help me to celebrate,
there will be no plan.

I mean, you would not want me
to warn LeeAnn, now, would you?

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Well, I think perhaps
one little glass of champagne is in order.

[LAUGHS]

I thought you might think so.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Well, what a pleasant surprise.

[J.R. CHUCKLES]

J.R.

Are you waiting for somebody,
or could I join you?

- Please, have a seat.
- Oh, thank you.

Uh, bourbon on the rocks, please.

You know, I haven't had a chance
to congratulate you on your engagement.

Cliff Barnes is a lucky man.

Well, thanks,
but I'm the one who's lucky.

Ha, ha. You're both lucky.

Yeah, Cliff is going places,
and I think you had a lot to do with that.

When are you moving to Washington?

As soon as he's confirmed
by the energy committee...

...if he's confirmed by the committee.

Oh, I think everybody knows
that he's a shoe-in for that job.

Why do you care?

I never got the feeling there was a great
deal of warmth between you and Cliff.

[CHUCKLES]

Well, Cliff and I have had
our differences in the past...

...but I think he made more of it
than I did.

And frankly, I'm delighted at the thought
of him moving out of Texas...

...to bigger and better things, of course.

- I'll pass that on.
J.R.: Ha, ha.

I'm sure he'll be pleased to hear it.

J.R.:
Mm.

And as the new
Mrs. National Energy Czar...

...I don't suppose you'll be able
to keep your brother's company.

I guess not.

No, it just wouldn't do.

The wife of the energy czar
owning an oil company...

...it's a terrible conflict of interest.

Is there a point to this conversation, J.R.?

Well, yeah, there might be.
Maybe we could help each other.

How?

Well, you're gonna have to dump
that little company of yours...

...and I am in the market
for one just like it.

- What do you say?
- You want me to sell you Ace Geophysical?

I'm willing to top any offer
you've gotten so far.

Just name your price.

- Well, I am pretty anxious to sell it.
- Good.

But not to you. Never to you.

Never say never.

Hmm.

- Is James here yet?
DERRICK: I haven't seen him.

Well, where the hell is he?

I called Southfork,
they said he left a couple hours ago.

He hasn't checked in with me either.

Oh, well, this is just great.

He's never home, he's never here.
This was not part of our deal.

Call around.
Find out if anyone knows where he is.

Look under every rock until he shows up.

DERRICK:
Michelle? Uh...

Is there anything I can do for you?

Take some dictation, write 3 “met?

You can drop the act
when my husband isn't around.

You're only useful
as long as he's hereto see you.

SLY:
Well, yeah, it's still kind of messy...

...but as soon as we get all settled in,
there's room enough for you and Bobby.

Mm-hm. Ha, ha. I know--

Oh, Phyllis, uh, let me call you back.

How'd it go?

- Just about like I expected.
- She sold it to you. Congratulations.

Uh, no, no, not exactly.
It was just a trial run.

I wanted to see
if I can do it the easy way but...

Well, I don't understand.

Darling, it's been along time since I've
played hardball and I'm getting to miss it.

So I want you to get Senator Garrity
on the phone, tell him J.R. is calling...

...and it's real important.

[BOTH LAUGH]

Look“ here.

[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING OVER SPEAKERS]

Finally the guy puts it into gear, okay,
gets about three feet in the air--

Having fun?

- Yeah, I was.
- Good.

It's nice to know
that the half-owner of Ewing Oil...

...is taking his position so responsibly.

I'm sure that all these wonderfully talented
and educated people...

...are helping you research
the oil business.

Are these oil drillers or engineers?

Would you lay off of me, Michelle?

My mistake, this looks more
like a stockbroker's meeting instead.

- They giving you some good tips?
- Hey, I said, enough.

Hey, kewpie doll, you're in my seat.

Excuse me?

Well, we were having a conversation...

...you interrupted it.

How silly of me.

I was under the impression
that James was sitting alone.

Or maybe you and I just have different
definitions for the word "conversation."

Oh, you do know what the word
"definition" means, don't you?

Look...

...you wanna talk to James, go ahead.

Not on my time.

Your time?

Let's get this straight, sweetheart.
I'm his wife.

Yeah?

Well, if your marriage is so wonderful
then what's he doing here, sweetheart?

My marriage is none of your business.

So why don't you just toddle off somewhere
and rub a bank or something.

James, we have to talk.

Save the talk for the office.

- Don't turn your back on"
- Hey, hands off, he's mine.

Do you see this?

That doesn't mean 3 “mm.

[SIGHS]

That's what you think.

Just remember,
office hours are from 10 to 5.

[PEOPLE MURMURING]

Why aren't you enjoying yourself
with your friends?

Oh, maybe later.

I was just thinking.

Good thoughts, I hope.

I was thinking about that talk we had
the other night.

You know, the one Dana interrupted.

What about it?

I was talking to you
about my grandparents...

...and you had asked me
about my mother.

Yeah, I remember.

Well...

...she died when I was born.

You said that she was coming for a visit.

Oh...

No, that's Hillary. She's my stepmother.

She married my dad when I was about 6.

I think she was only 20 at the time.

Sometimes she's a lot more
like an older sister than a mother.

The way you talked about her,
you seemed so close.

I never would have guessed
she wasn't your mother.

Because in a way,
that's who she really is.

[SIGHS]

Dad died when I was 8.

I don't think Hillary was any older
than I am now.

She could have dumped me anywhere.

She didn't.

She loved me, she cared for me
just as if I was her own daughter.

As far as I'm concerned,
she's the only mother I've ever known.

It must have been pretty rough on her,
raising you all by herself.

Hmm...

My grandparents helped.

I lived with them while Hillary worked
to support the two of us.

Did your man?

Hillary. --ever remarry?

No.

Though she did fall in love with a man
a few years after my father died.

What happened with that?

He was married
and his wife wouldn't let him go.

And then he died.

It hit her pretty hard.

She changed a lot after that?

That's why this visit is so important.

I've talked to her, but I just haven't
seen her since it happened.

She's had such a sad life, Bobby.

First losing her husband
and then this other man.

[SIGHS]

She's suffered so much
and I just wanna help her.

Because if anybody deserves to be happy,
it's my mother.

Sorry, J.R., I've left messages
with Senator Garrity's office all day.

- He's just not returning my calls.
- Oh, don't worry about it, Sly.

He'll call back. He's been busy
with confirmation hearings all week.

Listen, I want you to make a reservation
at the Oil Barons for me tomorrow.

- I'm gonna take James to lunch.
- Oh, you two have patched things up?

[CHUCKLES]

Well, I'm working on it, that's for sure.

You know, I like that boy,
in spite of what he's done to me.

I even persuaded him
to come back to Southfork.

You're kidding.
Isn't he married to April's sister?

Yeah, heh. Yeah, but not for long.

I'm gonna give him
the father he always wanted.

He's gonna be so happy
to call me Daddy...

...and we're gonna team together...

...and push that little tramp, Michelle,
right out of Ewing Oil.

[PHONE RINGS]

J.R. Ewing's office.

Yes, he's here, senator,
I'll put him right on.

Senator Daniel Garrity.

What'd I tell you?

Hello, Dan? Hey, how you doing?

Listen, uh, I know
you're a busy man nowadays...

...but I was wondering
if you could spare me a little time...

...and come on down to Dallas and
we could talk a bit. It's kind of important.

Yeah, well, you know I wouldn't have asked
if it wasn't important.

Tomorrow? Well, that'd be wonderful.
Um...

Why don't we meet at the Oil Barons
around 1:00?

Oh. Well, thank you, I really appreciate it.

Uh, what about your lunch with James?

Oh, we'll have our little talk.

Lunch will just have to be another day,
that's all.

[CHUCKLES]

JORY:
Good morning.

- Well, good morning.
- I've got some good news.

Dana and that guy John
are off to Acapulco.

She called me early this morning to tell me
that the double date is off. Thank God.

[LAUGHS]

- So where are you off to?
- Acting class.

Uh, maybe you'd like to come.

No, no. I don't want you to come.
I think you'd make me nervous. No.

No, I want you to come.
Yeah, I want you to come.

- Are you sure?
- Definitely.

Then I'll come.
But I have a couple of errands to do first...

-...so I'm gonna have to meet you.
- Okay, great. Um...

Here's the address.

I'll see you there.

- Okay.
- Bye.

Bye.

- Can I help you with something?
- I doubt it.

Well, why don't we find out?

Looking in! Marion; Tawny.
She's amend oi ours.

She's not here right now.

If you'd like to leave your names,
I'll tell her you stopped by.

Ah, no, thanks. We'll try back again later.

Thank you.

J.R.: And I tell you,
if these oil prices keep skyrocketing...

...we are gonna make a killing, boy.
Can I get you another one?

GARRITY: J.R.?
J.R.: Oh.

Senator,
I really appreciate you making this.

Now, what is so important
that you needed me out here?

I want you to meet a friend of mine.

Say, Liz, I'm so glad you're here.

May I ask why?

Well, this is a very important gentleman
in your life.

Senator Daniel Garrity, this is Liz Adams.

How do you do?

Oh, you're the head
of the energy committee.

Cliff's talked about you.

This beautiful lady
is engaged to Cliff Barnes...

...your new national czar.

The committee is still deciding, isn't it?

Cliff hasn't been appointed
to the position yet.

Well, I don't think
it should be a big decision.

- He's perfect for the job.
- We think so too.

I wouldn't go to the papers with this,
Miss Adams...

...but, uh, the committee
is about to confirm Cliff any day now.

It's only a matter of taking the final vote.

Well, that's wonderful.
Cliff will be thrilled.

He's the right man for the post,
that's for sure.

- Well, it was good seeing you, Liz.
- Yes, nice meeting you.

And if I had any question
about Mr. Barnes' taste...

...you just answered it.

Thank you.

A very attractive woman,
that Miss Adams.

It's gonna be a shame to lose her
to Washington, that's for sure.

[CHUCKLES]

Okay, so, what's the verdict?

Oh, I thought you were pretty good.
Uh, excellent driver, as a matter of fact.

I especially like the way you signal
every time you're gonna turn.

Oh, Bobby, come on, you know I meant
what's the verdict on my acting?

BOBBY: Come on,
I don't know very much about that stuff.

But I thought you were just fine.

Well, I guess that's a compliment.

Well, that's the way I meant it.

Okay, let's celebrate my future stardom.
I'll make you a cup of coffee.

- You're on.
- Okay.

Oh, my God.

Yeah, and this is my office. Can I get you
an after-lunch drink or something?

No, no, no. What's this all about, J.R.?

I didn't fly all the way out here
just to meet Barnes' fiancee...

...or to listen to your idle chitchat
over lunch.

Now, what do you want?

Well, there is something
you can do for me.

Well, what is it?

Stall Barnes' appointment.

Sure, no problem.
You want me to abolish taxes as well?

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

No, this is not a joke.

Dan, I don't want you making Barnes
the new national energy czar.

At least, not until I tell you to.

And why should I do that?

Because we're old friends.
We've had along and pleasant relationship.

Not long or pleasant enough for that.

I thought you might feel like that.
Please, would you sit down, please?

[J. R. CLEARS THROAT]

Heh, you ever heard of a lady
by the name of, uh, Stephanie Rogers?

Of course, she was my publicist
during my senatorial campaign.

Come on, Dan, she was a hell of a lot more
to you than a publicist.

Didn't she, in fact, run a--
Well, how am I gonna put this?

"Dating service for you?

- I don't know what you're talking about.
- Well, let me be more specific.

You like women. Hell, you love them.

Underage women, teenagers.

Now, this Miss Rogers
used to find these women for you...

...and arrange for you
to meet one of them every Friday at, uh--

What's the name of the place?

Oh, the Sleep Easy Motel,
just outside of the capital.

And from what I understand...

...you and those girls
didn't get a lot of sleeping done.

You son of a bitch.

Coming from you,
that's a compliment, senator.

Like I said, Dan, I'm not joking.

All right, consider the nomination stalled.

But if you ever say anything to anyone--

What, you gonna bring me down
with you?

No, you do me this favor and you'll never
have to worry about it again.

[DOOR SLAMS SHUT]

[CHUCKLES]

So thank you for all your help.

So how did it go?

I don't know.

Do you wanna take a walk?
I'm just not ready to face that mess again.

Come on.

See, the thing is, nothing was taken.

- Are you sure?
- Well, I'm definite about my stuff.

And it didn't look like anything of Kit
or Dana's was taken either.

I mean, not the good stuff
like theirjewelry...

...or the emergency money
we keep around the house.

So I don't know what this guy was after.

Well, I don't know what he was after either,
but I think I know who did it.

What? Oh, you're kidding, who?

Do you remember those two men who came
into the bar right after Dana and her date?

No.

I don't know who they were,
but they scared the hell out of Dana's date.

They stopped by here
right after you left for acting class.

- They said they were looking for you.
- For me?

Did they give you their names?

Just said they were friends of yours
and they'd be back.

Well, why me? If John knew them,
maybe they were looking for Dana.

Do you think
they could have gotten us confused?

I don't know.
They asked for Marjory Taylor.

None of my friends call me Marjory.

I wonder who they were.

I wonder who they were too.

But more than that,
if they are the ones that broke in...

...I wonder what they were looking for.

Now, I capped these fields
when the price of oil meant nothing.

Yeah, so?

Well, if I were you, I'd unplug those wells
and start pumping oil as fast as I could.

Who knows how long the price of oil's
gonna be up? I'd take advantage of it.

Ha, ha. Yeah. Well, thanks, Daddy.
You know, you didn't have to do this.

Didn't have to do what?

Oh, I was just helping out James some.

Well, I think I'll go up and see
how John Ross is feeling. Excuse me.

Pardon me, darling.

What was that all about?

Just having a little talk with my father.
Is there anything wrong with that?

Plenty. What kind of talk
were you having with him?

It's none of your business.

If it concerns Ewing Oil,
it sure as hell is my business.

Look, it was just a talk, okay?
I can talk with my father, can't I?

Or maybe you'd rather
I move back to the motorcycle shop.

Maybe you should,
if it means keeping you away from J.R.

Hey, he isn't doing anything bad.
He's trying to help the company.

- You really think he's changed, don't you?
- And you don't?

James, listen to me.
Once a J.R., always a J.R.

And I'm willing to bet my life on it.

Well, go ahead,
but you'd be betting by yourself.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Yeah?

MICHELLE: It's Michelle.
I need to speak to you for a minute.

Come in.

What do you want, Michelle?

I was wondering if you'd seen James.

I can't seem to find him anywhere
and it's getting pretty late.

No, I haven't seen him.

You know you ought to
keep a tighter rein on that boy.

I try, J.R. He just doesn't seem
to wanna come home these days.

And I'm getting pretty lonely
waiting up for him.

It just isn't any fun sleeping alone...

...is it?

Good night, J.R.

Pleasant dreams.

I would just like to know why.

I mean, I don't think any of us
are in any danger...

...but I would like to know
what those guys are looking for.

You do know what curiosity did
to the cat?

I don't care.

Besides, I always liked reading mysteries,
and now I get to solve one of my own.

Fine, now, where do we start?
Dana and her boyfriend are unreachable.

Elementary, my dear Watson.
We examine the clues that we have.

Okey-doke.
Now, you tell me, what are they?

[SIGHS]

They think
that I have something that they want.

Did Dana give you anything
while you and she were talking?

No.

Did John give you something?

Indigestion.

It's true. He was kind of schizoid.

First, he couldn't wait
to get out of there...

...then he wouldn't leave
until Dana put on her lipstick.

- He made her put on lipstick.
- That's what I mean about schizoid.

- Even when she didn't have it with her--
- He made you get yours.

I brought it with me.

What is it about this lipstick
that's so important to him?

- The compact.
- Ah!

Wait a minute, it's in here somewhere.

- Wait a minute, that's funny.
- What?

What is this? This doesn't belong to me.

This, my dear, is a pawn ticket.

Yeah, but how did it get there?
I never pawned anything in my life.

NARRATOR:
Next on Dallas:

JORY: I heard from my mother.
Her plans have changed.

She lands at noon
and then she takes off again at 2.

This is DeeDee and this is Michelle.

- Mrs. Beaumont.
- James has told me a lot about you.

Revenge is never stupid. It's the single most
satisfying feeling in the world.

They're gonna kill her
if you don't show up.

As dumb as Cliff is, I'm sure you'll be able
to convince him that it was all for the best.

- They want me to meet at noon.
- What's wrong with that?

That's when her mother's plane lands.

- I did it for you.
- Why don't you just stay out of my life?!

[SHOWER RUNNING]

COP:
Mr. Ewing! Wait, Mr. Ewing.

You've been lying to me all this time,
haven't you?

Your mother and I
have some unfinished business, Jory.
