All language subtitles for S13E12 - Sex, Lies and Videotape

NARRATOR:
Last on Dallas:

I just don't want my father getting hurt
when Cally explodes.

You'll be very pleased
with the end result.

No more Cally at Southfork.

This woman flat-out told me
she slept with J.R.

[CALLY SOBS]

- I hope I'm not interrupting.
- April, I didn't know you were back already.

I spent the night with Alex Barton.

J. R: Either you get out of this country
for good within 48 hours...

...or you're going to the local jail.
- Everything I've heard about you is true.

You really are that evil.

Just go. I don't want you back here
until you really, really want me.

There isn't anything he wouldn't do
to get your vote.

- I scrub your back, you scrub mine.
- Mm.

I had myself had a little fling in Austin.

J.R., I never slept with Alex.

You never touched her?

She was so damn faithful to you
I was nearly sick.

Oh, my God.

Honey.

[GASPS]

I don't understand it.

Why would she do a thing like that?

Where would she get
those sleeping pills?

Hell, we don't have anything like that
in our room.

I'll bet that damn Barton
gave them to her.

I gave them to her.

You what?

I mean, I just told her where they were.

Well, they were only sleeping pills.

I take one occasionally.

You saw the state she was in.
How could you do anything that stupid?

Well, how did I know she was gonna take
the whole bottle?

She only asked for a sleeping pill.

If she'd asked for a gun,
would you have given it to her?

If I thought she was gonna use it on you,
I would.

- It's no time for jokes.
- That wasn't a joke.

I saw what kind of state she was in...

...and I knew why too,
because she found out you cheated on her.

- How did you hear that?
- She told me all about you and Michelle.

I warned her from day one
what you were gonna be like.

Only this time, I'm sorry I was right.

Not as sorry as you'll be
if you ever tell anybody.

Hey, this is your dirty laundry.

I care too much about Cally
to say anything.

As hard as it may be for you to believe,
wasn't all my fault.

That's not hard to believe,
it's impossible.

Mr. Ewing?

- Is she all right?
- Yes, sir. She's gonna be fine.

We pumped her stomach.
She's weak, but she's resting.

You might wanna take her
to the hospital.

J. R: Well, I got a doctor coming along.
He'll decide that.

- Here's a little something for your trouble.
MEDIC 1: No. It's part of our job.

If you'd like to donate to our fund,
it'd be appreciated.

J. R:
Oh, you can bet on it. Now, can I see her?

Sure. But just remember, she's weak.

[SIGHS]

Cally, I'm so sorry.

I hope you can find it in your heart
to forgive me.

I almost died when I saw you lying
on the bed like that.

I'm so ashamed of what I did.

- I'd never have gotten over this.
- It's not your fault.

Not really.

I'm the one that should be ashamed...

...lying to you about what happened
with Alex and me.

Even so, it's my fault
you tried to kill yourself.

I didn't mean to try to kill myself.

I never took any pills before.

I took one and nothing happened,
so I took some more.

I guess I took too many.

You promise me
you'll never do that again.

Pills never solve anybody's problems.

After what they just did to me...

...I never wanna go through anything
like that again.

Well, I swear I'll never give you a reason
to even think about it.

Let's just try to forget
all that's happened.

Let's just be us again.

You're better than I deserve, Cally.

And I do love you.

And I love you.

[CALLY SIGHS]

I'm awful tired.

You go to sleep.

I'll just sit here and hold your hand.

[CALLY SIGHS]

ATTELSLEY:
No question. It's a fine field, Bobby.

BOBBY: Well, you got the paperwork
on the estimated reserves.

It has a long life yet.

ATTELSLEY:
So why sell this one?

BOBBY:
The cleanup in the gulf is draining me.

I need the cash. Not just for that...

...but to keep Ewing Oil fluid
until business picks up again.

You got a problem, you know.

Why? This is one of the best fields
we've got.

I know that.
So does anybody who might want to buy it.

They also know
what kind of trouble you're in.

I'd be surprised if we get
anything near what this field's worth.

I just gave you the asking price.
You get as close to it as you can.

- You know I will, but no guarantees.
- I understand. Thanks a lot.

Keep in touch, Bobby.

- Nice meeting you, James.
- Yeah, you too.

You know, I realize I still have a lot of learn
about the oil business.

But aren't you doing irreparable damage
to the company...

...by selling off your best oil fields?

Well, I'm not doing it any good,
but I don't have a choice.

Yeah, I understand that.

But when all this is over,
what are you gonna have left?

If all goes well, a company and our name.

Yeah, but you'll be back
in the minor leagues.

It won't be the first time
I've had to start over, James.

And I can't be worrying
about tomorrows.

I gotta get Ewing Oil's cash reserves up.

I have to finish that cleanup,
get Cliff Barnes off my back...

...not to mention the Justice Department.

You know, I saw a juggler
in a show once.

He had a bunch of poles with plates on
them, and he'd get the first one spinning...

...work his way down to the end.

By the time he got there, he had to run back
and start with the first one spinning again...

...and the same thing,
all the way to the end, over and over.

Any of the plates ever fall?

No.

Well, I hope I'm that good or lucky.

That'll be about another 15 minutes,
Ms. Perkins.

Well, that's fine, Rose. But would you, uh...?
Would you get me another magazine?

ROSE: Yeah, I'll be right back.
PERKINS: All right.

Hello, Rose.

[GASPS]

Oh! Mac.

[ROSE SQUEALS THEN LAUGHS]

Looking awfully good, Rose.

Oh, how can you say that?
I've been here since early this morning.

Oh. Tsk. Oh, Mac.

I heard about Tommy. I'm really sorry.

I know.

I was gonna come down for the funeral,
but I didn't want to be in the way.

I wish you had.

I wouldn't have had to come
all the way up here.

[ROSE CHUCKLES]

Any of you ladies
wanna buy a beauty parlor?

[CHUCKLES]

Honey, what are you talking about? Ha.

Just get your coat.
You don't need to pack.

You can buy anything you need in Dallas.

Mac?

I want you in Dallas with me.

I need you.

Will you come with me?

[KEYS JINGLING]

Willa Mae, take care of things for me.

Well, let's go.

Well, I never.

[PHONE RINGING]

APRIL [ON MACHINE]:
You've reached 555-6604.

Please leave your name
and number at the tone.

[ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS]

BOBBY [ON MACHINE]: Hi, it's, uh, me.
I'm sorry I've been so busy lately...

...and I guess you have too
since you never answer your phone.

Listen, as soon as I come up for air...

...uh, I'll call you again. We'll get together,
uh, maybe dinner somewhere.

I'll call you tomorrow, bye.

[ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS]

[SNIFFS]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Yes?

BOBBY:
It's me, Bobby.

KAY:
What are you doing here?

Unless I'm mistaken, I was invited.
And obviously, I'm early.

An hour. Uh, Dave Culver and the others
won't be here until 8:00.

- You told me 7.
- I couldn't have.

I'll walk around the block
for an hour while you get dressed.

No, that's all right. Come on in.

I'm always ready early anyway.

I just have to put on my dress.

This remind you of anything?

[BOBBY CHUCKLES]

A certain night in Washington, D.C.

Pretty wonderful night if I remember right.
Until someone got a midnight phone call.

[CHUCKLES]

I still get them, but I don't mind leaving
nearly as much as I did then.

After all this time,
there's still nobody special?

Tsk. Oh, dinner, the theater,
no one special.

Nothing near as serious as you and April.

Are you two talking church bells
and rice?

Well, we've discussed it,
but, uh, no decision.

Not sure of her or you?

I guess I'm just an old-fashioned
type of guy who likes to take his time.

Well, there's nothing wrong with that.

I often wondered if I'd left Washington
and come with you to Dallas...

...would I be Mrs. Ewing by now.

Kay, I've never been very good
at the "what if" game.

But you're a special person.
Any man would be a fool not to marry you.

Except you?

We just had different priorities.

You know I always respected you
wanting a career.

Just the same as me wanting mine.

- That hasn't changed, has it?
- No. No, I need that.

But sometimes I wonder
why I can't have it all.

Nobody has it all.

You just have to play the hand
you've been dealt.

It's like in a card game:
When one person wins, everybody else loses.

That's the way life is.

Let's shuffle the cards
and deal one more time.

I won't be long.

Mac.

[CHUCKLING]

- Do you like it?
- [CHUCKLING] You bet. You look great.

[CHUCKLES]

I hope you do, because
this is the happiest night of my life.

I know I wasn't exactly a nun
when I met you...

...but I'll be good for you, honest.

I know you will.

That's why I wanted you here.

I promise I'm gonna make you happy.

You already have.

Believe me.

J.R., there's something
that's been bothering me.

What's that, darling?

Alex Barton.

Now, why would you even be thinking
about that man?

Don't you think he could
come back to Dallas now?

Now that we've gotten everything
straightened out between us?

- No, I do not.
- Well, why not?

He just listened while I talked all night.

Cally, I'd do anything in the world for you,
but not that.

I don't see why.

Because he's the man you turned to
when you were down and depressed.

And I don't want you seeing him again.

But you know nothing happened
between us.

That's not the point.

He knows too much about you and me,
our life together.

Trust me,
he will never set foot in Dallas again.

[HORSES WHINNYING]

Oh. Now, I don't want you
to overdo it, honey.

Sure you wouldn't
like to take a little rest?

Mm, I feel fine, honest.

Ahh. It feels good to get out.

- I was getting tired of just sitting in bed.
- Yeah.

You know, even with Alex Barton
not around anymore...

...no sense in stopping painting.

- Could do you a world of good.
- I don't know.

I don't wanna do anything
that's gonna take away from us.

- Well, I still have my work to do, you know.
- I know that.

But I was thinking that maybe
when you come home tonight...

...we could have a romantic dinner,
just the two of us.

Oh, I'd love that, darling, I truly would,
but I gotta get down to Austin today...

...try to do something about Barnes.
- Austin?

Yeah. I'll be back tomorrow.
We'll have our little dinner then, huh?

And what if you run into that woman again?
I don't know...

No, darling, I have no intention
of running into her again.

As a matter of fact, I'm ashamed to say it,
but, heh, I don't even know her name.

If it bothers you,
why don't you come down with me...

...if you're feeling up to it?

No, I don't wanna get in the way.
I know how busy you'll be.

Yeah, but I don't want you
up here worrying.

I'll tell you what.
I'll take James down there with me.

I won't get in any trouble
with him hanging around...

...and it'll give him a chance to see the
wheeling-and-dealing side of the business.

You don't have to do that.

But maybe it would be good
for James to see.

I don't know. It'd just make me a whole lot
happier if you weren't going away long.

Darling, you know why I have to go.

It'd make our lives a whole lot better
for both of us...

...if you didn't have this problem every time
I go away on business for Ewing Oil.

I'll try, but I'm not making any promises.

It's not something I can forget that easy.

I know.

Well, this little walk has worked up
an appetite in me.

What do you say we go up the house
and have a little breakfast?

That'd still give me a couple of hours
before my flight.

Can you think of anything
we might be doing?

I guess if you're tired enough,
I really won't have to worry.

I was thinking exactly the same thing.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Well, Clayton,
everything's going pretty well.

We just about have the spill contained.

Yeah. Okay. Well, thanks for calling.

Yeah, we'll talk to you soon, bye.

Boys, just talked to Mama and Clayton
and they send their best to you.

- When they coming back?
- I don't know.

Clayton was pretty secretive
about what's going on.

J.R., I just talked to Clayton.

- What are they up to?
- I don't know.

Mama was real excited
about what's happening.

By the way,
I'm gonna take the jet to Galveston today.

Heh. You're not gonna talk
to that drunk Bouleris again?

- He said he wasn't drunk that night.
- Heh. What the hell you expect him to say?

- What if he's telling the truth?
- That doesn't help us.

The drunker he was,
the better our chances.

You know, I've never been to Galveston.

- Why don't you take me?
- It's a school day.

- I can miss one day.
BOBBY: Mm-mm.

I'll tell you what. Next holiday,
I'll take you down there, okay?

James, after breakfast
you better pack your bag.

We're going down to Austin,
might be staying the night.

- You sure you want me to go?
- Oh, absolutely.

There's a lot more to the oil business
then just sucking it out of the ground. Ha.

Right, John Ross?

Hope you're not gonna find
ranch life boring.

We don't know too much
about each other, do we?

Meaning what?

Ha, ha, Mac, I grew up on a farm,
right in the middle of lowa.

- Used to feed the chickens, slop the hogs.
- Ha, ha.

Come on, Rose.

- Do you expect me to believe that?
- Well, it's the truth.

[McKAY CHUCKLES]

You got some milk cows and a stool around,
I'll show you how it's done.

Ha-ha-ha. How about that? I wouldn't have
guessed that in a million years.

Yeah, well.

I've changed a lot since those days.

Seems like a lifetime ago.

Anyway, the answer is,
I'm not gonna be bored here.

Not with you around, anyway.

That's good, because it's important to me
that you're here.

I may need your help with something.

Well, I'd do anything for you, Mac,
you know that.

I was hoping you would say that too.

ROSE: So, what's this something
I can help you with?

McKAY:
I have a potential problem.

It has to do with that oil spill in the gulf.

I don't know about you,
but it seems pretty cut-and-dried.

Well, the Coast Guard reports
are pretty damaging to Ewing Oil.

Plus the record of
that Captain Bouleris of theirs?

It all adds up.

The more witnesses we see,
the more testimony we hear...

...the more it looks like
Westar's in the clear.

The purpose of this committee...

...was not just to establish
the cause of the accident...

...but to try to draft some sort
of regulations to avoid a repetition.

Of course it is, but first things first.

We don't do something,
this could happen again...

...while we're trying to blame one side
or the other.

Now, it's important
to nail the guilty party.

MIDDLETON:
We all know that.

I just wanna be sure
that we're getting all of the information.

I just can't believe it's as one-sided
as it seems to be.

Seems pretty simple to me. Ewing was
off-course and rammed the Westar tanker.

But it was foggy
and there were heavy seas.

But that shouldn't matter
to a modern tanker.

The point is that the Ewing tanker
was overloaded and it was badly-run.

Let's stop this bickering
and try to do as Diana suggested.

There's been so much yapping in here,
I forget what that was.

It was simply to get off this vendetta and
onto regulating oil shipping more closely.

Well, that's all well and good.

But the public wants an answer
as to what happened...

...and as chairman,
I'm gonna see they get one...

...and it's gonna be pretty damn soon.

Slumming again?

Thought you
and I should have another talk.

Why? You didn't believe me before.

I'm still the scapegoat for Ewing Oil.

I'm willing to believe you weren't drunk
at the time of the accident...

...and that makes you one lousy captain.

Why?

Somebody rammed that Westar tanker.
Sure as hell wasn't me.

You don't know a damn thing
about what it's like.

So why don't you tell me? That's why
I'm here. I'm trying to understand.

It's a long trip from Venezuela.

We were fighting rough seas
the whole time. And that tanker?

She was a piece of junk...

...barely held together with baling wire
and chewing gum.

Plus we were carrying a bigger cargo load
than we could handle.

- So you had a lousy ship.
BOULERIS: It was more than that.

We couldn't get near top speed
out of the engines.

Radar was malfunctioning.

Add to that a tired crew,
the fog, and a storm...

...well, we're lucky nobody got killed.

And I have to ask you something,
Captain Bouleris.

Go ahead.

If the Faraway Hill was in as bad a shape
as you say she was...

...you were overloaded and were
gonna be in trouble...

...why did you take the job as captain?

- Why didn't you just pass?
- Lf I had other choices, I would have.

With my record, no other ship
would have taken me on, no decent ship.

Was it the money?

- Did you need it that bad?
- Sure, I needed the money.

Who doesn't?

But that's not the thing.

It's my life.

It's what I do.

It's who I am.

Is this what it was all about?

You come into my beauty shop to get me,
making me think you really cared about me.

- It was all for this.
- Rose, I do care about you.

It's not like what I'm asking you to do
is so terrible.

Like you said yourself, you weren't any nun
when I first met you.

I'm not asking you to do anything
that you haven't done before.

But not like this.

Not because you want me to.

I may have been free and easy, honey,
but I was never no whore.

And you're not now.

Look, do you think this is gonna change
anything between us?

It won't, except to make me care
for you more.

[SIGHS]

[CRYING]
Well, why me?

There must be a million women
you could get to play a dirty trick like this.

There are.

But you are the only woman
in the whole world that I trust.

And that's as close as I'm ever gonna get
to saying I love you.

[SOBS]

MAN:
The controller and staff will be over here.

- You did say you were in oil?
- Yes.

Well, then there's room for Geology
across from them.

A group of identical offices here
for vice presidents.

The receptionist out here.

Inside, your private secretary,
and then your own magnificent office...

...which, I might add, has the finest view
of downtown Dallas in the city.

I'm sure it's very nice.

There are, of course,
concessions for a long-term lease.

By the way, may I inquire,
how many in your organization?

- At the moment, just myself.
STOCKER: I see.

Several floors down,
there's a much smaller suite...

...that's more suitable
for a one-woman operation.

- Is there?
STOCKER: Yes.

I'm sure you'd find it more preferable.

- I don't think so.
STOCKER: Pardon me?

I'll take this.

My attorney will take care of the lease.

And have them ready by next week.

Next week?

If Cliff Barnes
has anything to do with it...

...you and your brother will be hanging from
the highest yardarm of the queen's navy.

Oh, he's tried before but always failed.

Did he have public opinion
behind him before?

No, but the man is a genius at snatching
defeat from the jaws of victory...

...especially with a little help
from my friends.

- Like me.
J. R: Mm.

Yeah, I figure you'll find ways
to derail his momentum, so to speak.

I could if I choose.

By the way, was your husband happy
with his job offer?

He certainly was. He left for Alaska this
morning, feeling very proud and important.

- Least I could do.
DIANA: Not quite.

Anything else?

I think we should discuss it in private.

Come by this afternoon.

She's a real barracuda, isn't she?

[J.R. CHUCKLES]

Fortunately.

You're not going to?

Well, if it takes a little roll in the hay
to keep Barnes off my back, I am.

What about Cally?

This doesn't have anything to do with Cally.
Strictly business.

Then it's pretty lousy business.

Come on, James,
don't be so self-righteous.

What about you and little old Michelle?

What about us?

Well, it didn't take me long
to figure out...

...why she changed her mind
and decided to help me.

You convinced her.
I know how you convinced her.

Michelle is gorgeous and ripe.

It's something we both wanted.

And you didn't use what you both wanted
to persuade her to see things our way?

If I did, what happened with us
is totally different from this.

Oh, how's that?

Well, I'm not married, for one thing.

I'm not cheating on my wife.

I told you this is strictly business. That
woman doesn't mean a damn thing to me.

James, when you get a little older,
you will understand...

...that there are things
you have to do that are above...

...and beyond what you learned
at business school.

That's why you brought me with you,
isn't it? I'm the beard.

Made Cally feel better.

- What if I tell her about this?
- Heh. You won't.

You've got my blood
running through your veins, boy.

You may not like what I'm doing,
but you won't do anything about it.

Well, duty calls.

Now, you be careful.

Don't get into any trouble.

- Are you ready?
- Yes.

- Good night.
BOBBY: Oh. Good night.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Any important calls?

Nothing that can't wait.
Even the hate mail is dropping off.

Oh, there's some good news
for a change.

Come on in.

- How did the trip go?
- Pretty good.

I found out Bouleris isn't the drunken fool
everybody paints him to be.

- Oh. Did you rehire him?
- No, not yet.

I'm getting a good feeling...

...that Ewing Oil is not completely
responsible for that accident.

- Oh. That sounds encouraging.
- I don't have any proof yet.

I'm just feeling better about it.

[PHONE RINGS]

- I'll get it.
- No, I'll get it.

Ewing Oil.

Yes, just a moment.

It's Attelsley, the broker.

So much for the good news.

Yeah, this is Bobby.

You standing up or sitting down?

Why?

Because, believe it or not,
I sold Ewing 14 today, and for full price.

- You're kidding. Full price?
- To the dollar.

- Who's the lucky buyer?
ATTELSLEY [O VER PHONE]: I don't know.

It was done through an agent.
Either he didn't know or wouldn't tell me...

...but it's a signed, sealed
and delivered deal.

ATTELSLEY:
You should have money inside a week.

I appreciate it, Dick.
Thank you very much. Bye.

- Well?
- Somebody just bought Ewing 14...

...for the full price.
- But he doesn't know who.

Mm-mm.

My bet is, it's Carter McKay.

That's what I'd do if it were me.

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]

- Would you like me to fix your drink?
- Heh. No. No.

I'm gonna go have dinner
with Christopher.

Uh, am I interrupting?

BOBBY:
No, not at all. Come on in.

- Thanks, Phyllis. You can go now.
- Good night.

- Well, can I get you a drink or something?
- Uh, no.

I just came by to tell you I'm flying back
to Washington tonight.

Why, is something going on?

Well, the problem is nothing's going on
between us.

- Ahh. Kay...
- That's all right.

We've always been straight
with each other, Bobby.

Besides, I think I can do more for you
in Washington than I can here.

Doesn't mean
I'm not gonna miss you, though.

And I you.

Are you sure you wanna leave?

It's tough separating my personal life
from my private life when I'm here.

Would it offend you if I offer to put you
on the payroll while you're working for us?

No, for better or for worse,
I'm a working girl.

- Or did you know that?
- I seem to remember that we discussed it.

Well, who knows?

Maybe your girlfriend
will do something stupid...

...and a working girl might appeal to you.

Yeah, who knows?

[SIGHS]

How do you thank somebody
for saving your life twice?

I haven't saved your life yet...

...but I'll keep trying.

I'll see you around, Bobby Ewing.

- Good evening, Mr. Barnes.
- Hey, Mike.

- What can I get for you?
- Scotch.

MIKE:
Yes, sir. Oh, I saw you on TV again today.

- Looked real good.
- Thanks.

- Pardon me, but aren't you Cliff Barnes?
- Yeah.

ROSE: Well, I don't wanna bother you,
but I just had to tell you...

...I read about you all the time,
and you're doing a wonderful job.

Well, that's nice.

- Miss...
- My name is Rose, Rose Daniels.

- Pretty name.
ROSE: Mm.

Pretty lady.

Aren't you the nicest man?

[CLIFF CHUCKLES]

But just watching you on TV,
I knew you would be, I could just tell.

MIKE: Something for you, ma'am?
- Uh, can I buy you a drink?

- Are you sure you want to?
- I can't think of anything I'd rather do.

Well, in that case, I'll have a martini on
the rocks, not too much vermouth, please.

You got it.

This is really nice of you.

An important person such as yourself
taking the time to talk to me. Ha, ha.

Well, I like to keep my hand
on the pulse of the public.

And anywhere else?

- Pulse is a hell of a place to start.
- Why don't you try mine?

[SCOFFS]

MIKE:
Uh, here you are.

Chin-chin.

Mm.

Would you like to have dinner with me?

Oh.

I really would.

But there's this wonderful movie
on the hotel TV, a real love story.

I was just gonna order room service
and watch it.

Shoot.

If you'd like, we could watch together
if you promise not to behave yourself.

You have my word on it.

[CHUCKLES]

Then let's hurry and finish these drinks.
I wouldn't wanna miss a minute of it.

It's a long movie?

ROSE:
Sugar, it's as long as we want it to be.

Chin-chin.

DIANA: I hope Charles enjoys Alaska
as much I enjoyed that.

May I assume that business will bring
you back to Austin on a regular basis?

I'll be here when I have to.

You're not making it seem like a chore,
are you?

Oh, I think it was mutually enjoyable.

I think it's a wonderful arrangement.

We're both married, therefore there's no
pressure to spend a lot of time together.

No one need ever know
what we're doing.

It'll be our secret for as long as it lasts.

The best thing is
no one can get hurt by it.

Yeah.

Here we go.

I think the post office decided to hold these
and delivered them all at once.

Thought we were through
with all that hate mail.

I'm not even gonna bother
going through all this.

You think Bobby and J.R. Should see it?

Well, I know J.R. Should, that's for sure.

What does that mean?

It means we all know
Bobby's not responsible for all of this.

[SCOFFS]

Why does everybody around here
always blame everything on J. R?

PHYLLIS:
Well, because it's usually his fault.

I tell you whose fault it is. Cliff Barnes.

If he wasn't out there stirring up the pot,
all of this would be yesterday's news.

Wait, leave me out of this.
I don't work for him anymore.

How did you ever manage
to work for him?

He just sort of took me over
when Pam left.

Good morning.

Maybe it's not such a good morning
after all, huh?

PHYLLIS: I have some messages for you.
- Okay, bring them in.

The florist called.

April wouldn't accept the flowers
you sent her.

At least, they weren't deliverable.

Would you get her on the phone?

I tried her after the florist called.
I got her machine.

Well, let's try again.

No, I'm gonna go
and make sure she's all right.

You've got those two interviews
with the national magazines.

We put them off twice and I don't think
they'd be happy if you canceled.

Yeah, you're right.

- Would you get me a cup of coffee, please?
- Sure.

[LINE RINGS]

APRIL [ON MACHINE]:
You've reached 555-6604.

Please leave your name
and number at the tone.

[MACHINE BEEPS]

It's me. Are you ever gonna
return my calls?

Good morning.

Have a nice night?

[SCOFFS]

Well, if it makes you any happier...

...I don't feel too good
about what I did last night.

But you did it anyway.

[J.R. SIGHS]

Is your bag packed?
I wanna get back to Dallas this morning.

Yeah, I'm packed.

One of the reasons I finally told you
you're my father was that...

...I wanted you to get back together
with my mother again.

Yeah?

I liked Cally all right,
but she was standing in my way.

All I'd have to do is get rid of her
and bingo, I'd have an instant family.

Wait. Are you telling me
what I did last night...

...is gonna help you get rid of Cally?
- Damn right I am.

Only I'm not gonna tell her.

You think I want my mother
married to you?

Now, don't you go mouthing off with me.

And I certainly don't need
your holier-than-thou attitude.

I don't have to take your criticism, kid.

I'm not criticizing you.
I'm just telling you what is.

You may be a great father,
but you're a lousy husband.

- Oh, is that right?
- That's right.

If you don't like my opinion,
that's just too damn bad.

[CHUCKLING]

What's so funny?

You know what your problem is, James?
You're just too much like me.

- You may not realize it, but you'll see.
- No way.

Oh. You're acting just like I would have
if my daddy had done what I did last night.

And look at me now.

That will never be me.

[CHUCKLES]

Never say never.

[ENGINE STOPS]

LUC Y:
Hey.

I've been looking all over for you.

How are you feeling?

[SIGHS]

I'm all right.
I just wanted to take a walk by myself.

Don't you think it's time to stop playing
Camille and get yourself back on the ball?

What's that mean?

It means you can't let worrying about J.R.
Control your life.

- You've got an art show to put on.
- Not anymore.

J.R. Ran Alex out of Dallas.

I'm surprised that's all he did.

You mean there weren't any broken bones,
no death threats?

What a horrid thing to say about J.R.
He'd never do anything like that.

No? What about taking me away
from my mama when I was just a baby...

...threatening to kill her
if she ever came back here?

He didn't do that.

Well, it was a long time ago.

He could have mellowed since then.

Anyway, we've gotta talk
about your show.

There's not gonna be a show.

With Alex gone, what gallery do you think
would show my works?

The one I just bought a part of.

What?

I finally figured out
what I'm destined to be.

Yup, a patron of the arts.

Ha, ha. Look at it this way.

I've got lots of money, no job,
and a vested interest in you.

After all, I discovered you.

I guess you did, at that.

All right, then, get out of the dumps.

Come on, we've got a show to put on.

McKAY:
Why don't you get to the point?

All right.
Look, the news from the gulf is...

...that the Ewings are doing most
of the cleanups.

- So what?
- You'll make my job much more difficult.

Remember, they're supposed
to be the bad guys.

But you are the good guy, Cliff.

The public loves you.
I see you every night on the news.

You're hot stuff. As a matter of fact,
I have a tape of your last performance.

I was rather impressed by it.

[CHUCKLES]

[ROSE MO ANS]

[CLIFF MO ANS ON TV]

[ROSE GIGGLING]

What the hell is that?

A night in the life of Cliff Barnes.

[ROSE MO ANING]

CLIFF:
Are you crazy?

You mean that was a setup
so you could tape me?

McKay, you can't be dumb enough to think
you can blackmail me with that.

That's a harsh word, Cliff,
and that was not my intention.

The thought occurred to me that
during your investigation...

...you might stumble across
some information...

...that was detrimental to Westar.

If you do, I'd just like you
to remember that tape.

Oh, do you think I care about that tape?
I don't care about that tape.

Look, so I got lucky with some bimbo.

It's not like I'm married,
I'm out there fooling around.

That may be. But how do you think
it would look if the word got out...

...that you were sleeping
with the wife of the head of Westar?

Well, you're not married. I mean...

I'd like you to read this. It saddens me
to tell me you the young lady...

...who costarred with you in that film has
been, for three days, Mrs. Carter McKay.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Go away.

BOBBY:
April, it's Bobby.

You go away too.

BOBBY: You wanna open this door
while I'm still calm?

What is the matter with you?

You don't accept my flowers.
You don't answer the phone.

- You don't even return my calls.
- Oh. You're not the only one busy. So am I.

I've been getting back into it
with a vengeance.

That's a very interesting turn of phrase.

How did you manage to tear yourself
away from Miss D. C...

...to come over here?

April, I can't stand a jealous woman,
especially when she has no reason.

No reason?

How would you like it if some guy
from my past came into my life...

...and I spent all my time with him?
- I wouldn't like it.

- Probably knock him on his butt.
- That's the difference between you and me.

I don't want you unless you want me.

- I do want you.
- I don't mean "want" want.

I mean want.

I didn't mean that either.

Well, then what do you mean?

I mean I think we should get married.

Married?

Married.

[LAUGHING]

NARRATOR:
Next on Dallas:

- You deliver, I deliver.
- You got a deal, Mr. Bates.

- Get out of my office.
- I'm not your enemy. Barnes is.

You trying to beat J.R.'s time?

I'm trying to say
that I could take his place.

I didn't thank you.

For what?
Helping you cheat on your wife?

- You...
- I can explain this.

- Michelle.
- I have important information.

Can we meet?

But I ain't what you expected.

You are exactly what I expected.

Who decides these boundaries?

We're playing in a game
that doesn't have any rules.

We have to set our own.
