All language subtitles for S12E02 - No Greater Love

NARRATOR:
Last on Dallas:

You mean that bastard is still alive?

Should make you happy.
You wouldn't face a murder charge.

I've changed my mind
about you coming to Ewing alone.

- What?
- Forget you ever had a sister.

- No, Pam.
PAM: Goodbye, Cliff.

We should all wave to him, huh?

- When can I see the Krebbs' place?
- Tomorrow too soon?

- It wasn't Pam?
- No, it was just a wild-goose chase.

There'll be trouble
till I get my boy back.

- You'll get him back over my dead body.
- Whatever it takes, Sue Ellen.

Clayton.

I think that's all of them.

You know, right about now,
I bet there isn't a cattleman...

...in this whole state who doesn't wish
he had a river run through his ranch.

BOBBY: You can bet on that.
CLAYTON: Hmm.

You know,
it must be kind of strange for you...

...to be running Southfork with me.

Oh, maybe just a little.

Oh, I'm grateful for Southfork.

That's pretty obvious.

I mean, you know, I own half of this ranch,
and getting back to ranching...

...I just love it.

I had made up my mind.

I'm gonna get out
of the oil business completely...

...and give Miss Ellie and Southfork
the kind of attention they deserve.

- You're gonna sell your refineries?
- That's right.

And you're the one I wanna sell them to.

Well, I'm interested, of course,
but money the way it is now, I don't know.

Yeah, I wanna keep them in the family.

I can appreciate that.

They're good properties.

Let me see what kind of deal
I can put together...

...that's fair to both you and Ewing Oil
and we'll talk.

Take all the time you want. Offer's there.

Well, what do you think
of our new house?

Nice, I guess.

There's a big, beautiful backyard
you can play in.

Can Uncle Bobby bring Christopher over?

Well, I wouldn't count on Uncle Bobby,
but maybe I can bring him over.

Maybe?

I can't wait for you to go inside.

It's so beautiful.

You're gonna love it. I just know it.

Come on.

Come on.

Well, this is it. You like it?

It's nice, Mama.

Well, you won't feel so strange
in a few days.

I guess not.

Oh, now I'm gonna take you outside...

...and see the tennis court
and swimming pool.

JOHN ROSS:
Okay.

Isn't it beautiful?

Yeah.

- Can I ask you something?
- Of course.

I still don't understand
why you shot my daddy.

I don't know how to tell you any better,
John Ross.

I was angry.

I was very scared.

More scared than I've ever been.

And the gun was in my hand...

...and I shot it.

All I can say is that I panicked.

I panicked, John Ross.

Don't you wanna say anything?

No.

Well, we have to talk about it,
sweetheart.

It was a rotten thing to do.

I know, and I'm very sorry.

We're never gonna live
in Southfork again?

No.

Can I go see the rest of the house now?

Can I have a hug?

Come on.

J. R: McSween,
you don't seem to be getting my message.

J.R., listen to me.

No, you listen to me.
What's gotten into you, anyhow?

- All I want you to do is grab John Ross.
- I can't do it.

- What is the matter with you?
- It's illegal.

Illegal? Well, why do you think
I'm talking to you?

This is no time to suddenly discover
you've got scruples.

- It's more than the job's worth, J.R.
- What are you talking about?

People snatch their kids off each other
all the time.

Not anymore.
Courts have gotten real tough.

Look, your wife has a court order.

I grab the boy, that's kidnapping.
I can't touch it.

You're not worth the money
I'm paying you.

If a cop can't break the law,
what use is he?

- I'm sorry.
- Get out of here.

- J.R.
- Go on, I don't wanna see you anymore.

APRIL:
How did Bobby take it?

I didn't tell him.

You didn't?

I told him that Jordan made a mistake,
and it's all a wild-goose chase.

What? How can...?

I don't understand any of you anymore.

What's that supposed to mean?

Why should you have to carry it all?
Just tell me.

Why does everybody think that it's
so important to spare Bobby's feelings...

...when he doesn't give a damn
about anybody else's?

Hey, hey.

Bobby dumped you,
and that's your problem.

I don't have any ax to grind
with Bobby anymore.

I mean, the Barnes-Ewing feud,
that's history.

So don't expect me
to settle old scores for you.

I mean, I'm not gonna be the one to tell
Bobby that Pam is in love with another man.

But I am gonna tell you
to mind your own business.

J. R: What do you mean there's nothing
I can do? I don't wanna hear that.

This is the hard stuff, Mr. Ewing.

Sue Ellen has possession...

That's a kind of a de facto custody.

- And she has a court order to back it up.

As long as that boy is in Dallas County,
not Braddock...

...there's no way you can challenge that
until the divorce hearing.

Are you telling me there's not anything
you can do to get my boy back?

If John Ross is physically
in Braddock County...

...and he states a preference that he'd
rather be with his father than his mother...

...then we could institute proceedings
for now...

...to get temporary custody
until the divorce.

So if I can get him back in Braddock,
he's mine.

Let me warn you, J. R...

...or you could lose that boy later
during the divorce hearing.

Anything he says or he does
must be entirely voluntary.

In other words,
no kidnapping, no coercion.

Do you really think I'd do
something like that to my own son?

What kind of person do you think I am?

Second, to get permanent custody
after the divorce...

...you'd stand a lot better chance
if you were back home at Southfork...

...with your family.

You didn't do yourself any favors
by moving out.

[INTERCOM BEEPS]

PHYLLIS [O VER INTERCOM]:
Tammy Miller to see you, Bobby.

BOBBY:
Send her in.

[LAUGHS]

I don't believe it.
When did you get back in town?

A couple of days ago.

Wow. You look great.

You look great too.

- Come on in, sit down.
- Oh, great.

I like your office.

Oh, that's right.
You've never been here, have you?

Mm-mm. I might have come
if you'd invited me.

- Oops, I'm sorry.
- Ha, Ha.

How was your trip?
Did you spend all your divorce settlement?

Not quite. I mean,
I'm a few thousand dollars poorer...

...but my natural instinct
is to plan for the future.

Listen, can I, uh, get you a drink?

No, thanks.

- I'm interrupting your work.
- No, not at all.

I just wanted to say hello.

I'm glad you did.

And when you have time,
I need your advice.

- You want my advice?
- Mm-hm.

What about?

Investments, for what money I have left.

Tammy, I'm flattered.

You think I'm the right guy
to give you that advice?

In broad terms,
before I go see an investment broker.

Bobby, you don't have an ax to grind
or a favorite fund you wanna put me in.

- Oh, I see.
- I'm...

Why do you say
we talk about it tomorrow?

- I'd love to.
- Lunch?

- That would be great.
- Okay, I'll make a reservation.

Bobby, you're such a nice man.

ELLIE:
Do you think he decided to buy?

Yes, I'm gonna show the rest of it tomorrow,
but I'm sure he'll like what he sees.

Well, that's good news for Ray.

Good news for us too.

I think we have found ourselves
a real good neighbor.

You're right.
I hadn't thought of it that way.

- You'll like him.
- Sounds like it.

Why don't you come with me tomorrow,
and you can meet him?

ELLIE:
All right.

J.R.

Mama, Clayton.

J.R.

I didn't mean to startle you.

What do you want, J. R?

Well, I don't rightly know
how to put this.

Well, I've never thought I'd see the day.

Give him a chance, Clayton.

You know, I had a lot of time to think
when I was lying there in the hospital.

I guess it takes something like that to make
you realize that you just don't live forever.

And, uh, I was in a state of shock,
I think, when you came to visit me.

I said some terrible things to you.

I know I hurt you, Mama,
and you too, Clayton...

...and I want you to know I'm real sorry.

Southfork is a place for family,
and I need to be in the family again...

...if you could see it in your hearts
to take me back.

Nice speech, J.R.

Well, I mean it,
and I hope you believe me.

ELLIE: Well, it doesn't matter
if we believe you or not, J.R.

This is your home,
and you're always welcome here...

...as long as you understand
that Clayton is head of the household.

Yes, Mama, I do.

Your best behavior.
You understand what I'm saying?

You won't have any trouble from me,
Clayton.

I never realized how important
living in Southfork is to me.

SUE ELLEN:
John Ross? John Ross?

Come down for a minute.

This is still all very strange to him.

It will just take a little while
for him to settle in...

...and there's the problem
with new school and friends.

I understand.

I know he's gonna be very happy here.
It will just take a little time.

Of course.

Mama?

SUE ELLEN: Oh, come on in, sweetheart.
I want you to meet someone.

John Ross, this is Mrs. Forbes.

We were talking about her
coming to work for us.

And she can keep an eye on both of us.

Hi.

Very glad to meet you, John Ross.

You gonna live here too?

No, not exactly,
but, uh, I'd be here every day.

- You think you and I could be friends?
- Sure. Why not?

Well, then why don't you call me Helen?

Okay. You know how to play poker?

Not really.

- I can teach you.
- Okay.

[LAUGHING]

Well, I think you two
will get along just fine.

- Can I go now?
- Yes, you may.

Goodbye, Mrs. Forbes.

Be seeing each other again real soon.

Tomorrow, if you can start.

- Yes, I can.
- Okay.

Well, I like him a lot.

And he'll be fine
as soon as the newness wears off.

McKAY: Always liked to be near the water.
There's just something about it.

ELLIE:
It's very soothing.

I think the river's even prettier here
than when it reaches Southfork.

CLAYTON: I don't know whether being
pretty or not is of any interest to a cowboy...

...but I do think that they're happy
it didn't dry up.

ELLIE:
Ha, ha, Clayton, where's your soul?

Oh, it's out there, someplace.

Anyway, I never expected
to find anything this nice.

You know, this used to be part
of Southfork long ago.

My first husband gave a section
to Ray Krebbs years ago...

...and I gave him another section
when he got married this year.

This should have been very special to him.
Why is he selling it?

ELLIE: Well, he and his family
are living in Europe now.

Hard to think of anybody moving away
from a place like this.

Well, that's it, Mac. I don't know
another blade of grass I can show you.

You've been very generous with your time,
Clayton, and I appreciate it.

I particularly appreciated
meeting this charming lady, Miss Ellie.

And we hope we see a lot more of you.

That's a prospect I find irresistible.

ELLIE:
Then you've definitely decided?

Well, if I would've been honest about it,
I decided to buy the place yesterday.

I just couldn't resist
coming out here again today.

ELLIE: Oh, well, that's wonderful.
CLAYTON: It sure is.

I'm ready to close any time
you can arrange it.

I'll shake your hand on that.

It's settled, then.

BOBBY:
Do you wanna run that by me again?

I'm getting out of the oil business.

- That's what I thought you said.
- Don't act so shocked.

I've got all the money I need.

I just don't enjoy the stress
and the battle of it anymore.

- Cliff, what are you gonna do?
- I don't know. Nothing.

Between you and me, I don't care.

- What's gotten into you?
- Tired, had it up to here.

- I thought you were gonna get me a drink.
- Oh, sorry.

Isn't this decision of yours
kind of sudden?

CLIFF:
No, I've been thinking about it.

Doesn't have anything to do
with the fact that you didn't find Pam.

No, it doesn't have anything
to do with it.

I don't think so.

- I don't wanna tell you your business...
- Then don't.

I don't know why you're making
a big deal out of it.

Jordan thought he saw Pam
but he didn't.

So nothing's happened. Nothing.

How about you?
Have you closed the chapter on it?

- Yeah, I think so.
- Yeah?

Well, give yourself a break and do it.

Is that what you're doing,
giving a break?

Yeah, just like I'm gonna
give you a break.

Oh, yeah? What's that?

All the assets of Barnes-Wentworth...

...l'm gonna sell them to you
at rock-bottom prices.

- Are you serious?
- I'm dead serious.

Huh?

Tell me now, when is the last time
you had an offer that good?

Believe it or not, about two days ago.
Plate-refining operation.

I don't know if I can afford
to take that deal or yours...

...and I sure as hell can't afford
to take them both.

Ha, ha, you mean,
you got embarrassment of riches...

...and you don't have the cash flow
to cover that?

I'll drink to that.

[LAUGHING]

MAN:
So, what do you think, Mr. Ewing?

Yeah, what is it?

Right now, it's just a dock,
but, uh, a man of vision...

...he could realize
the full potential of this place.

Yeah? What potential is that?

Biggest marina on Ray Harbor.

Whole recreation area over there.

There's a lot of land
goes with this place.

Yeah, you've got quite an imagination.

With you behind it, Mr. Ewing...

...this place could lay you
the biggest golden egg you ever saw.

[CHUCKLES]

You believe in that,
you believe in fairy tales, and I don't.

Now, I'm disappointed.
Disappointed in you, Mr. Ewing.

I thought a man like yourself
could see this place for what it could be.

What did you ask me out here for?

Everything I heard about you
told me you're right for it.

Well, I don't know
who you been listening to...

...but I tell you, all I do is pump oil,
I ship it and then I sell it, that's it.

From what I heard, not anymore.

What?

Well, you got your name on the door,
all right, but that's all.

Rumor has it
that you're out of the oil game.

Strictly not allowed to play.

Means you're looking around
for a new ballpark, right?

Wrong.

I never thought I'd have to tell
a fellow Texan this...

...but you shouldn't believe
all the stories you hear about me.

[SIGHS]

JOHN ROSS: There's a pool and
a tennis court, but no horses or anything.

School's all right,
but the kids don't talk to me.

I miss you, Christopher.
Maybe your dad will bring you over.

Sure, it's lonesome.

Got a nurse or something.

She's okay, just no fun,
not like Grandma.

No, Chris, I can't do that.

I can't run out on my mom.

No way.

I love my dad, but I love my mom too.

I can't just leave her.

I guess all I can do is stick it out
and hope it gets better.

Right.

John Ross, I'm home.

Hey, I gotta go.

Yeah, okay. Okay.

Yeah, real soon.

Hi, honey.

Hi, Mom.

[PIANO PLAYING]

[CHATTERING]

HOSTESS:
There you go.

- Thank you.
- All right.

Would you like cocktails?

- TAMMY: Campari and soda.
- Okay.

- Scotch rocks.
- All right.

Thank you.

So where did you stay
when you were in London?

The Atheneum, ha, ha.

- I told you money was no object.
- I guess not.

Only thing that could make it better was if
I wasn't traveling with a bunch of women.

You'd rather be traveling with men?

No. The right man
would have been enough.

You know me,
always been a one-man woman.

So, what do you wanna know
about your investment?

We don't have to talk about that yet
if you don't want.

I thought that's why we were here.

And to catch up. It's been a long time.

It's been a year.

What's happening with you?

Business or personal?

I wouldn't mind it being personal.

Well, I haven't found the right woman,
if that's what you wanna know.

Haven't found the right man, either.

Well, see, we have something
in common.

I guess so.
Maybe I should have stayed in Dallas.

Tammy, I like you, you know that.

But after you left, there was somebody.

It's over now, but just barely.

It wouldn't be fair to you or me
to rush into something right now.

I'm sorry.

It doesn't matter.
I don't mind waiting a while.

Well, isn't that sweet?

Who's this, Bobby?
Some new little virgin you found yourself?

Or maybe you haven't checked yet
whether she knows J.R.

He does get around.

TAMMY:
Who was that?

It doesn't matter.

- That wasn't your...?
- No.

Tammy, I don't wanna try
and explain her to you...

...and believe me,
you don't wanna know about her, all right?

Fine.

John Ross.

- What's the matter?
- Nothing.

John Ross.

Look at me and tell me what's wrong.

Oh, my God. What happened?

Nothing. Got into a fight, that's all.

- Why?
- I didn't like what a kid said.

What was that?

Same thing all the kids are saying.

"She shot Daddy."

Oh, sweetheart.

I am so sorry.

Children can be so cruel.

Give them time and they'll stop.

You just have to understand, that's all.

I understand that
if I were in my own school...

...Daddy would've come down
and kick them around the schoolyard.

I hate this.

Miss Lucy, Mr. Mitch is here.

- My Mitch?
- Yes.

All right. Tell him to come in.

- Hello.
- Well, hello to you too.

Just get up?

- What are you doing here?
- That's nice.

How about, "Hey, it's great to see you.
Would you like a cup of coffee?"

Here.

Why didn't you tell me you're coming?

I'm sorry.
I guess I should have called you first.

That's okay.

You just surprised me, that's all.

So, uh, how come you're here?

Isn't it obvious? It's been what,
three weeks? A month?

It's been long enough, Lucy.
It's time to come home.

Sue Ellen?

What are you doing here?

Well, I came to say good morning
to my son.

Don't you try anything
or I'll call the police.

Well, can't a father
see his son off to school?

No tricks, J.R. I mean it.

[DOOR OPENS]

- Hey, son.
- Dad!

- How you doing, son? How you doing?
JOHN ROSS: Okay.

- I missed you.
- Yeah, I missed you too.

Sweetheart,
you gonna be late for your bus.

Hey, what's going on here?

- Somebody been beating up on you?
- It's nothing.

J. R:
Well, it doesn't look like nothing to me.

I did a real dumb thing at school.

- Opened a door on my face.
- Yeah?

- Have your teeth been checked?
JOHN ROSS: They're okay.

Well, I hope so,
otherwise somebody's gonna get sued.

He's perfectly fine,
and he's gonna miss his bus.

J. R: I'm talking to my boy.
Don't interrupt me.

Well, now, you look bigger
than last time I saw you.

JOHN ROSS: It hasn't been that long.
- Seems like it though, doesn't it?

JOHN ROSS: Yeah.
- Well, let me see if I got this right, now.

Christopher has been asking
when you're coming home.

And your grandma and Clayton
send their love and so does Bobby.

And well, I guess you know
I'm back home in Southfork.

- Yeah, Chris told me.
J. R: Yeah.

Oh, it's great.

You don't realize how great it is
until you've been away.

SUE ELLEN: J.R.
- Huh?

[BUS HORN HONKING]

Sweetheart,
you are gonna miss your bus.

- I guess I gotta go.
- All right, son.

You be a good boy,
and I'll come visit you soon.

- You will?
- You can count on it.

JOHN ROSS:
Bye then.

- Bye, Mom. See you later.
- Bye, sweetheart.

You let me know the next time
you're coming out here.

So you can make sure
that he won't be here?

Now, I don't think so, Sue Ellen.

You are truly despicable.

Coming here and filling his head...

...with how great it is
to be back at Southfork.

Sue Ellen, if John Ross is unhappy
living here with you, that's not my fault.

You call yourself a loving mother...

...and yet you keep him away
from the very place he wants to be.

I call that selfish.

Downright selfish.

[CAR DOOR SHUTS]

SUE ELLEN: Miss Ellie, I'm very glad
that you agreed to have lunch with me.

Well, I won't pretend
that it was exactly easy.

SUE ELLEN: I understand.
That's why I'm very grateful.

Sue Ellen, we've known each other
for a long time.

We were family.

I didn't think there was anything
that you could do...

...that would ever make me
be disappointed in you...

...but you have.

And you caused me a lot of pain.

Miss Ellie, if I had really hurt J. R...

...I would never have expected you
or Bobby to forgive me.

Well, you didn't, thank God.

So let that be the end of it.

How's John Ross settling
into his new school?

You must be able to read my mind...

...because that's the other thing
I wanted to talk about.

Are there problems?

Yes.

But I suppose you can expect
some of those to start out with.

I'm afraid so.

Miss Ellie...

...do you think I'm doing the right thing
insisting on having John Ross with me?

He needs what I can give him.

He needs the time, the help, the love.

He needs his mother.

And then I see
how much he misses his father...

...and being with all of you at Southfork,
and I start questioning what I've done.

What do you think?

You've always been fair.

Well, when you divorced J.R.
The first time...

...I backed you all the way, Sue Ellen.

That's why I wanted to talk to you now.

John Ross is older now.

He needs different things
from each of you.

I think his wishes should certainly
be taken into consideration.

Is it wrong to want my child?

No. Not as long as that's what he wants.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

- Yep?
PHYLLIS: April Stevens is here to see you.

All right, send her in. Thank you.

- Bobby.
BOBBY: Hello.

I guess you're wondering how I could
possibly have the nerve to come here.

- Something like that.
- Did I wreck your meal?

You gave it your best shot, didn't you?

Would you believe me if I told you
I came here to apologize?

Well, why don't you try me?

I am really sorry about my behavior
at the restaurant yesterday.

Well, that sounded like an apology,
so I guess I have to believe you.

I mean it. I can't even believe
I did something so cheap.

April, let's just let
the whole thing drop, okay?

You don't really like me at all, do you?

Does that matter?

What is it, Bobby?

I mean, this crap about me and J.R.,
that's not it.

I mean, why is it that I can't
even get to first base with you?

I just don't wanna be involved
with anyone right now.

Oh, and what about your little buddy
at lunch yesterday?

What does she have that I don't?

She's an old friend.

Have you ever slept with your old friend?

My personal life
is none of your business, April.

Well, I take it that means yes.

Nice to know
you're not gonna save yourself for Pam...

...because she's not coming back.

Just leave her out of this.

I'm telling you the truth.

Cliff lied to you. He saw Pam.

And you know what?
She doesn't wanna know about you.

Nor about him, nor even about Christopher,
and you wanna know why?

Because she found herself a new man.

She's gonna marry her surgeon.
Isn't that sweet?

Guess he was taken
with his own handiwork.

I'm sorry, Bobby.

I had no right to say that to you.

Get out of my office.

Now!

[DOOR SHUTS]

Bobby, what happened?

Are you all right?

I don't wanna take
any more calls today, Phyllis.

Sure.

Well, the place is all yours.

Signed, sealed, and delivered.

I guess this is what I've been saving
for all my life.

You've made me
a very happy man, Clayton.

Well, I'm sure Ray Krebbs
will be happy too.

- It's a pity you've never met him.
- Maybe I will someday.

You tell him any time he wants to come
and look the old place over, he's welcome.

I'll do that.

Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute,
I almost forgot. Ranch hands.

I'd be very happy to recommend
some good people if it will help you out.

Thank you, Clayton,
but I've already hired all the people I need.

Yeah, well, that's all right too.

I'll, uh, see you later.

You will, Clayton.

Count on it.

[CHUCKLING]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

TAMMY:
Yes?

BOBBY:
Tammy, it's me, Bobby.

TAMMY:
Bobby?

- What's the matter?
- Nothing.

I was in the neighborhood,
so I stopped by.

It's a little late.

- Is it?
- Mm-hm.

Sorry.

Maybe you'd better come in.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Come on.

I just got out of the shower.

- Oh, I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

Can I get you anything,
like a cup of coffee?

Uh, no, no, no.

What's the matter, Bobby?

Well, nothing.

Everything's ducky.

Is that why you're drunk?

Tammy, if you loved me,
you wouldn't run away, would you?

Of course not.

You didn't run from Paul.

No, he left me. It was just the opposite.

I've been thinking about us...

...and everything you've said to me.

And?

Why don't things work out the way
you think they should ever?

Why can't two people just fall in love
and get married...

...and live happily ever after?

Why does everybody
gotta hurt everybody?

Oh, Bobby.

You're such a sweet man.

Oh, Bobby.

Well, I guess you two lovebirds won't mind
if I leave you on your own.

Oh, Mitch, I just wanna tell you.

Everybody here is so grateful to you
for coming and taking Lucy away.

You know, somehow,
J.R.'s charm has always escaped me.

You're not the only one.

Why do you think Sue Ellen
put three slugs in him?

Well, I never knew why she was with him
in the first place.

Anyway, you won't miss him
when we leave.

- He's not Southfork.
- What's so wonderful about Southfork?

It's my family home.

I thought Atlanta was our family home,
or aren't we a family?

Well, I've certainly had enough time
to think about it here...

...and in Atlanta.

We talked about this all night, and I see you
haven't come to any decision, have you?

- Don't push me, Mitch.
- I won't.

But don't expect me
to be something I'm not.

I have to be there
when my patients need me.

That doesn't mean 9 to 5.

That means when a kid gets burned
or there's a car crash.

I mean, I have to be there,
whenever it happens.

I thought you understood me and my life.
I guess you don't.

I love you, Lucy...

...but I'm not gonna give up
being a doctor for you.

Now, you can take me as I am
or not at all.

I'm gonna go upstairs and pack.

TAMMY:
Bobby.

Time to get up.

- Hi.
- Hi.

What time is it?

Eight-thirty.

I brought you some coffee.

Thank you.

How are you feeling?

Pretty good.

How drunk was I?

Oh, some drunk, some sad.

- I'm sorry.
- What for?

For showing up here like that.

It's okay. We had a beautiful time.

That I remember.

And whatever it was
that you were going through last night...

...I hope I helped you get through it.

I'd prefer, though, that you didn't show up
here in this condition again.

I care for you so much,
but I don't wanna be second-best...

...or some kind of refuge for you
when other women dump on you.

I couldn't bear it.

So when and if you decide
it's really me that you want...

...l'll be glad to take it from there.

- Hi.
- Hi.

You're not having much fun around here,
are you?

It's okay.

How would you like
to go visit Southfork?

- You mean it?
- Of course I do.

Oh, boy,
can I call Christopher and tell him?

Why don't you do that?

JOHN ROSS:
Gee, thanks, Mom.

CHRISTOPHER: John Ross.
JOHN ROSS: I'm back.

- Dad!
- Hi, son.

It sure is nice of your mama
to let you come and visit.

It's not just a visit.
Mama's gonna let me live here.

CHRISTOPHER: You're really back to stay?
JOHN ROSS: Yep.

Guess what. We got two new foals.

Wanna go out to the barn and see them?

Sure.

John Ross.

Thanks, Mama.

I love you.

I love you too, sweetheart.

You go have fun, okay?

I'll come see you soon, Mama.

Is that true, Sue Ellen?

You're gonna let John Ross stay here?

If you sign this.
Gives me full legal custody...

...but John Ross has the right
to decide where he wants to stay.

That's Southfork.

I know that...

...but if he changes his mind at any time,
he can come to me.

He's not gonna change his mind.

Well, I'm glad you finally came to your
senses and did what's best for the boy.

You bastard.

I'm the only one who's ever done
what's right for him...

...or cared about what he wanted.

Would you have given him to me
if he asked you to?

I'm willing to let him stay here
if that's what makes him happy.

He's the only one I care about.
Not you, not me, him.

And if you think that by him being here
settles any score between the two of us...

...you are sadly mistaken.

The one thing I have to look forward to
in my life is evening the score.

And believe me, I will.

NARRATOR:
Next on Dallas:

Let her go.

Well, I don't see a ring on her finger.
You can't be her husband.

They're my brothers.
And Japhet, you let him be.

You think you own this town?

We were just leaving. Come on, J.R.

He ain't going nowhere.

I need men I can depend on.

- They don't come cheap.
McKAY: Will that take care of it?

- Cliff and I were lovers once.
- You think that that would hurt J. R?

Guaranteed. He'd hate it.

[GUN COCKS]

You're a dead man.
