All language subtitles for S13E13 - Tale of Two Cities

NARRATOR:
Last on Dallas:

I never wanna go through anything
like that again.

I'll never give you a reason
to think about it.

Aren't you doing 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.

If the Faraway Hill was in as bad a shape
as you say she was, why didn't you pass?

I'll see you around, Bobby Ewing.

[SIGHS]

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

And best of all, no one can get hurt by it.

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

- You're just too much like me.
- That'll never be me.

- It's a long movie?
- Sugar, it's as long as we want it to be.

[MO ANING ON TV]

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

How would it look if word got out...

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

I think we should get married.

- Married?
- Married.

Give me a hand with the bag, James.

Hey, can I use your car tonight?
I'll have it back to you in the morning.

Can't wait to see that little girl of yours?

I wanna spend the night in a hotel.

Why is that?

Well, maybe you can go in and face Cally.
I can't.

- Why not? You didn't do anything.
- Yeah, but you sure did.

And now you want me to go in
and lie for you.

Well, I don't want you to do anything
but remember...

...that what I did was business,
pure and simple.

I just happened to do it
in the privacy of a lady's bedroom.

Well, your way of doing business stinks.

It'll save Ewing Oil,
and that's all that matters.

Now, you and I went down
to Austin together...

...and you and I are gonna march
into that house together.

Get moving, boy.

- J.R., you're back.
- Whoa, watch the coffee, honey.

Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
I missed you.

- Me too.
- Hi, James.

- So how did it go in Austin?
J. R: Oh, just fine, just fine.

You're making progress
with the committee people?

J. R:
Oh, I think I got one of them on my side.

CALLY: Well, I've been making
some progress myself.

I'm having a showing of my paintings
at this gallery Lucy bought.

Well, if Lucy bought it,
it must be some gallery.

Now, don't you pick on her.
She's been very sweet to me.

I spend a lot of time with her when you're
gone doing whatever you do in Austin.

Oh, is that one of yours, Cally?

It's something I just finished. It's for you.

I hope you like it.
It's kind of different for me.

Cally, that's wonderful.

- Truly?
- Truly.

I want you to hang it in the office
so everybody can see how much I love you.

Oh, I'm the luckiest man in the world
to have a wife like you.

BOBBY:
What are you doing?

Okay, I've waited long enough.
Where is it?

Where's what?

The thing that you slip on my finger
that makes this official.

Oh, that.

You know, when I came over, I hadn't really
planned on popping the question.

Besides, I've been a little busy lately,
you know.

No ring?

Come here.

How about tomorrow?

I'll tell you what.

Why don't we wait until this thing with Cliff
blows over and the pressure's off?

And then you can come over with the ring
and ask me to marry you all over again.

Now, is that fair?

By then I might not have enough left
to buy you much of a ring.

It doesn't have to be much.
It doesn't even have to be a diamond.

Just has to be official.

You're not so bad, you know?

I know.

[BOBBY CHUCKLES]

Hi, Carla. Mrs. McKay home?

- Yes, sir, she's upstairs.
- Thank you.

- Rose?
ROSE: Yeah?

I'm home.

Do you want me to fix you one?

Yeah, a double of anything.

What the hell did you do to yourself?

You don't like it?

No. I like you the way you were.

Well, that lady doesn't live here anymore.

The one that loved you
and wanted to do anything for you.

There's nobody here but your whore.

Come on, Rose.
You know that's not the way it was.

- Well, it is every time I look at this.
- Well, then don't look at it.

ROSE:
If I'm not looking at it...

...I see it in my mind anyway.

But why don't you look at it?

Not as some business move...

...but as your wife there in bed
with another man.

Doesn't that bother you?

What bothers me
is what it's doing to you.

I didn't think
it would mean that much to you.

No?

Honey, I don't know
what you were thinking...

...but when you married me...

...I thought it was gonna be the start
of a whole new life.

Not just you using me.

When I lost Tommy,
something in me died.

I did use you, Rose...

...and I'm sorry.

Then can we get rid of the tape?
I never wanna see it again.

I have to keep it until the Barnes committee
makes its determination.

As soon as they have...

...we'll get rid of it once and for all.

You promise?

You have my word.

You did what?

I told you,
I had Additsley sell Ewing 14 and 19.

No, I don't mean that.
You said you rehired Bouleris.

You're damn right I did.
We need him on our side.

I cannot believe you put that drunk
back on the payroll.

J.R., he is the only one
who can tell us what happened that day.

If they don't pin that collision on Bouleris,
they're gonna pin it on Ewing Oil.

We are gonna be up to our eyeballs
in charges...

...to say nothing of Westar's lawsuit.

If that committee finds us guilty...

...we're gonna face the same charges
with or without Bouleris.

If he won't talk,
he'll take us right down with him.

Not if we have the right people.

Now, what in the hell
do you think I was doing down in Austin?

You've been spreading the B's around,
have you?

Well, bribery and blackmail
won't do it this time.

- And hiring a drunk will?
- I'm also going to see the Coast Guard.

I wanna find out what they've got
without Barnes looking.

What good is that?

You don't do things my way,
you bury Ewing Oil.

Your way doesn't work
as long as Cliff is head of that committee.

- Get out of my office.
- I cannot believe you're my daddy's son.

You just don't have his guts.

I got enough guts
to bounce you out of here. Now get.

Well, remember one thing:
I'm not your enemy, Barnes is.

And why is that, J.R., huh? Why?

MICHELLE:
It's a gorgeous day.

The sun might not be shining...

...but the birds are singing,
and we're together.

You act like you just found out
the Grinch stole Christmas.

That's how I feel.

- Something I did?
- No, not you.

It's just the more I see of what goes on
in this stupid oil business, the less I like it.

Then let's get away from it.

Yeah.

See that big one over there?

I'll hot-wire it and we'll sail it
to a tropical island someplace.

- You don't know how to hot-wire an engine.
- But if I did.

Do you like the idea?
You and me on a sandy beach?

- We'd live on coconuts and love.
- Yeah. For how long?

And that's another thing.

I can't stand the idea of you living
with Cliff Barnes and us making love.

I told you, there's nothing going on
between Cliff and me.

But it's his bed we're in.

And I hate sneaking around
behind his back.

Okay. I'll move into Southfork with you.

Yeah, that would be great.

You and me and Cally and J.R.
Together at dinner?

It would be real exciting.

No. We gotta get you
your own apartment.

We do?

Yeah.

And don't worry about the money.
I'll take care of it.

Better be careful.
That sounds like a commitment.

It is. As long as we're straight
with each other.

Any time you want a change,
you let me know...

...and I'll do the same.

I like it.

There's only one little problem for you,
though, if I move out of Cliff's.

Not that I see.

How do I keep getting the information
your daddy needs?

Well, you could see Cliff,
have lunch or dinner or whatever.

As long as you don't live with him.

Come on, let's get out of here.
I wanna start looking for apartments.

- You sure you can't wait?
- We have another meeting to get to.

Sorry I'm late.
I was on the phone with the governor.

Cliff, I'd like you to meet
Mary Lou Harding...

...chairperson
of the American Antipollution Society...

...and Amelia Wilson,
secretary of Save the Oceans Fund.

- Cliff Barnes.
- I'm delighted.

Diana has told us
what a great job you've been doing.

She said you're truly a leader
in the war to save the environment.

- It's a war we can't afford to lose.
- That's a position we endorse.

It's the only one
any concerned citizen should have.

I agree completely.
But unfortunately, we do have to go, Diana.

Maybe another time.

HARDING: Looking forward to it.
- Okay.

- Goodbye.
- Bye.

- You leaving?
- I thought we might have a talk first.

Good. Then you can tell me
what this is all about.

These are important women.

We belong to many of the same groups,
and I thought you should meet them.

Why are you being so nice to me?

You're an ambitious man, Cliff.
I like that about you.

I didn't think there was anything you liked
about me, given the fights we've had.

I know a rising star when I see one.

Who knows where this committee
could take you with the right help?

And that could be you?

Could be.

And if you're going anywhere politically...

...you'll need the support of women
like the ones I introduced you to.

You can get me that support?

- Guaranteed.
- In return for what?

An open mind about Westar and Ewing.

I have an open mind.
I know the truth when I see the truth.

Then why are you so determined
to hang it all on Ewing?

Why are you so determined
that they're innocent?

Unless, of course,
J.R. Ewing has you in his back pocket.

And because you wanna hang them,
does that mean you're in with Westar?

Don't throw my offer of help away, Cliff.
You won't get it again.

MAN: If you've seen the transcripts
of our testimony...

...you should know our official position.

Oh, I know it, all right.

- It's full of supposition and innuendo.
MAN: I beg your pardon?

You didn't reach the site
until two hours after the collision.

And when we did,
the Westar tanker was on its proper course.

It was your ship that was off-course,
with its bow embedded in the Westar ship.

Because Captain Bouleris
kept those ships locked together...

...so that more oil wouldn't spill.

He drove Westar's tanker
back into its lane.

What else would a man
with his record say?

You kept referring to his record
in your testimony...

...insinuating he was drunk
at the time of the accident.

Wasn't he?

If you're so damn sure, why didn't anybody
give him a sobriety test at the time?

We were a little too busy trying
to save lives and stop that oil spread, sir.

You hadn't monitored Westar's tanker
since it passed its last checkpoint.

You have no idea what happened out there,
and you never monitored our tanker.

So to avoid any possibility
of this coming back at you...

...you put the blame
on Ewing's drunken captain.

Good day, Mr. Ewing.

This ain't over yet, pal.

And before it is,
the truth's gonna come out.

- Hi, Jackie.
JACKIE: Hi. Phyllis left.

She didn't think
you'd be coming in anymore tonight.

- Anything I can do for you?
- No, I'm just gonna do some paperwork.

- Is James here?
- Yeah, sure.

- Good night.
- Good night.

I thought you'd be down in Austin
with J.R.

Yeah, I'm going down
first thing in the morning.

You see anything out there you like?

Not a lot.

When you see J. R...

...will you tell him that the meeting
at the Coast Guard went real well?

Yeah. Ewing Oil is really important
to you, isn't it?

I think you should know that by now.

Is it important enough
for you to do anything for it?

Just about.

What's going on in Austin, James?

Just the usual, I guess. Cheating, bribing.

- Whatever it takes.
- J.R. School of Business.

- And not yours?
- Sometimes.

Sometimes there's an exchange of favors,
people helping each other.

And the end
always justifies the means, right?

Well, if I can steal a line
from W. C. Fields...

...you can't bribe an honest man.

It's a pretty damn weak excuse, I admit.

But sometimes... Sometimes it happens.

Yeah, welcome to the oil business, right?

And any other business.

There are boundaries.

You can bend them...

...but you never cross over.

Well, the question is,
who decides what these boundaries are?

James, we're playing in a game
that doesn't have any rules.

We have to set our own.

Just like you're gonna have to set yours.

Have a good trip.

- Cliff definitely is not going to be easy.
J. R: That's why I got you, honey.

I dangled some very attractive bait
in front of him:

Political endorsements
by some very important groups.

Yeah? Well, that should've hit him
where he lived.

It didn't.
He has a fixation where you're concerned.

J. R: Well, it was worth a shot.
I guess we'd better try a different tack.

Well, we didn't get anywhere
with Middleton.

Senator Lee is firmly in Cliff's camp.

J. R: Which brings us to Billy Joe Bates.
- Billy Joe Bates.

I don't know if he's dumber than he seems
or smarter than all of us.

[J.R. CHUCKLES]

He's half-asleep
during most of the meetings.

The rest of the time, he's complaining that
serving on the committee is costing him.

J. R: Really? Well, I'm kind of partial to
people who think about money all the time...

...and try to get their hands on more.

Well, he has a fortune of his own.
Money's not gonna do it.

The thing with the Billy Joe Bates
of the world...

...is you gotta offer them
something for nothing.

You know, I call them "freebies."

You know, maybe a Rolls-Royce
or a trip around the world on a Concorde.

Something they can afford
but they're just not willing to pay for it.

And you'll know what that is?

Well, I'm sure as hell gonna find out.

CALLY:
Somebody should've shown up by now.

Cally, it's only 10 after.
People like to be stylishly late.

I don't know who I thought I was,
thinking I was ready for a one-woman show.

Hey, you are great.

Just remember that, no matter
what happens here today, all right?

Okay.

Mrs. Evander.

- Oh, hello, Cally.
- Lucy, you remember Mrs. Evander.

She was the first person
to buy one of my paintings.

- Of course.
- Lucy, good to see you again.

Your work just keeps getting
better and better.

Although Alex always did have a good eye
for new talent.

- Yes, ma'am.
- I should think he'd be here for this.

Alex is very busy in Europe.
I own half the gallery now.

Well, then I expect you
to live up to my arrangement with Alex.

Pardon?

Well, since Mrs. Evander
bought one of my first paintings...

...Alex promised her she could
always buy more at the same price.

Oh, but they've gone way up since then.

- A deal's a deal.
- Indeed.

And there are two paintings
I absolutely adore. Come.

J. R: Mr. Bates?
- That's right.

- Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you, sir.
- Hell, you're J.R. Ewing, ain't you?

- That's right.
- Well, sit down.

Take a load off. Have some lunch.

Oh, I think I won't be eating,
but I would like to talk to you.

Well, go on.
I can eat and talk at the same time.

I just wanna tell you how much I appreciate
a public-spirited man like yourself.

Why is that?

Oh, devoting all your time
to Barnes' committee...

...and letting your business suffer,
you know.

I ain't doing too poorly.

Still, there ought to be
something a little extra in it for you.

Something dear to your heart.

Well, it took you a long time
to get around to that.

I tell you, I was mighty hurt
when you went to Middleton first.

Oh, how's that?

Middleton, he's one of those uptight guys
with highfalutin moral values.

I keep telling him,
we're investigating oil companies.

Ain't no need for ethics in this thing.

Well, that's a fact.

You need a friend on that committee,
Mr. Ewing.

You need one real bad.

- Now, that's why we're talking.
- And you can have one.

In exchange for that.

Oh, I don't think that'll be a problem.

Course, I'm gonna need you
firmly on my side.

You deliver, I deliver.

- Mr. Bates, you have a deal.
- Call me Billy Joe.

You know, J.R.,
you ought to taste some of this.

It's out of this world.

You're blocking my sun.

You know,
too much sun's bad for the skin.

But it doesn't look
like it did any real damage yet.

Where were you this morning?
I had to meet Daddy without you.

- Oh, I bet you hated that.
- Purely business.

- But then, the day's not over yet.
- Yeah, it's purely business, all right.

So let's keep it business with him.

And if there's anything else, I'm here.

Oh.

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

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

I mean, he's old, and he's married.

And at least he could look his wife
in the face.

Knowing J.R., I think he can do that now.

It's a most attractive offer,
but I think I'll stay with J.R.

Why?

You can't do what J.R. Can do.

And what's that?

Make my husband very happy.

What?

He got Charles a very important job
that he needed badly.

Not for the money...

...but to prove something to himself.

And you care so much...

...you jump right into bed with my father
while he's gone?

Would you believe
I love my husband very much?

And I go to bed with J.R.
So that he keeps that important job.

And he goes to bed with you
to make sure he gets your vote.

I don't think he finds it unpleasant.

But your husband's got his job,
and J.R.'s got your vote...

...so why not call it a draw
and leave it at that?

It's not that simple.

We've each got a tiger by the tail...

...and neither one of us
wants to be the first to let go.

- Thank you very much for coming.
MAN: I enjoyed it.

- Next time, I may even buy something.
- That would be nice.

We did it!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

We sold almost all of them.

And I got commissions for more,
lots more.

Oh, I just can't thank you enough, Luce.

Look at all these checks.
What are we gonna do with these?

You know, we never even talked
about who gets what.

There's a lot of money here.

Well, Alex said that it was 60-40,
so I guess that's right.

Yeah, but who gets 60 and who gets 40?
Just kidding. We'll work it out.

In the meantime,
we got some celebrating to do.

That's a fact.
And I know just how to do it.

LUC Y:
All right.

CLIFF: Oh, I enjoyed that.
Nice having company for a change.

MICHELLE:
Oh, for me too. It gets lonely in Dallas.

CLIFF:
We'll hang out for a couple of days.

I got a ton of work to do,
but we'll get together tonight.

I gotta get back.
I'm looking for my own apartment.

Oh, no. You don't have to do that.

You can stay at my place
as long as you want.

I know that,
and you've been really nice to me...

...taking me in the way you did,
but it's time I was out on my own.

Besides, I kind of get the feeling
I might be in the way sometimes.

CLIFF: No, you are not.
- Well, I might be.

You're a very attractive man, Cliff.

And even though there's nothing going on
between the two of us...

...I can see why other women
would want you.

Thank you very much.

I mean, when you do find someone else...

...you could hardly bring her home
with me being there.

I bet you've got women
falling all over you.

It's gonna be a cold day in hell
before I go through anything like that again.

Thank you, no.

Well, that's a funny thing to say.

- Did something happen?
- Oh, didn't it, though?

What?

Cliff, I'm your friend. I'll understand.

- Cliff.
- It was stupid.

- I let myself get set up.
- Set up? With a woman?

But who cares what you do?
You're single.

McKay. He found a way around it.

How?

He got his tramp wife to pick me up.

I didn't know who she was.

She took me to a hotel.

McKay got the entire performance
on videotape.

He did?

He knew I was gonna get the Ewings.

Guess he just wanted
some more insurance.

Of course, now...

...the SOB thinks he has a hold on me.

DIANA: He really came right out
and showed you what he wanted?

I told you, they all want freebies.

You do know how to give people
what they want, don't you?

[J.R. CHUCKLES]

It's a gift acquired
after many years of practice.

- And now refined to an art.
- Well, I like to think so.

Yeah, but you still only have two votes.

I'll worry about it tomorrow.

- But you don't have that much time left.
- Tomorrow, James.

It's late, James.

And we have an early plane to catch
in the morning.

Good night, James.

Good night.

He's a nice boy, J.R.

Yeah. He has an integrity problem,
but I'm working on it.

Well, I'm gonna finish my drink
and have a shower.

- Care to join me?
- I think I'll wait here for you.

Well, get warm. I hate cold feet.

I'm Mrs. J.R. Ewing.
Is my husband in his room?

MAN:
Yes, I believe he is.

- Shall we get your luggage?
- I don't have any.

Could you tell me what room he's in?
I can't wait to surprise him.

JAMES:
J.R.

J.R., Cally's here.

- J. R!
- What are you talking about?

- Cally's here. She's on her way up.
- What the hell is she doing in Austin?

I don't know,
but she'll be here any minute.

All right. I'm out of here, son.

James, would you hand me a robe?

Oh, J.R., I've got great news.

Let's go have a drink
and you can tell me about it.

- Okay.
- You are full of surprises.

What on Earth are you doing here?

- Well, I had a great show.
J. R: Did you really?

[DIANA LAUGHS]

You are one crazy lady, Diana,
if you think this is funny.

It's funny when you think about it.

But your wish came true, James.
Playtime's over for tonight.

What would you have done
if she walked in?

The question is,
what would J.R. Have done?

[KNOCKING]

WOMAN: J. R?
- Oh, my God, it's Cally.

DIANA:
I guess he missed her.

Listen, if you really wanna
save Daddy's bacon...

...I suggest you make it seem
like you and I are here alone.

[KNOCKING CONTINUES]

- You boys playing strip poker?
- What are you doing here?

- Business first. Where's J. R?
- Oh, he's not here.

Too bad. I had good news for him
about Cliff Barnes.

Well, why don't you wait for me
down in the bar...

...and you can tell me all about it?

Why don't we wait here for him?
I missed you.

Wait. I can explain this, honest.

Is this your idea of a commitment?
Of being straight?

Wait. This is not what it looks like.

It looks like you were trying to get rid of me
before I saw her.

- Well, you have. I'm gone.
- Wait, please.

DIANA:
What are you doing?

I'm going after her.

And tell her what?
That you were just covering up for Daddy?

Maybe.

Well, maybe she'll believe you,
but I don't think I would in her place.

Listen, look at it on the bright side.

You wanted me to stop sleeping with J.R.

Well, after tonight,
I think you may have gotten your wish.

Well, that makes me feel a lot better.

You two are the cheaters,
and I'm the one who gets caught.

Lesson number two:

Never ever be the innocent bystander.

I never thought anybody would show up,
but the gallery was packed.

Oh, darling, I'm so sorry I couldn't make it,
really, I am.

And they liked them.
Almost every painting was bought.

It sounds like your career
is really taking off.

Oh, J.R., I just want you to know that my
most important career is being your wife.

And all I wanted was to fly down
and celebrate with you.

- I hope you don't mind.
- Do I look like I mind?

Good.

Because I got a powerful need
to go up to your room...

...and really celebrate with you right now.

Honey, I think the perfect place
to celebrate is Southfork.

And we're on our way as we speak.
Come on.

I'll just leave a little note for James
to take care of my baggage, all right?

CALLY:
Okay.

I think just a small wedding,
only family and a few friends.

BOBBY:
Ooh. That would be fun.

You could have Michelle
as your maid of honor...

...and I'll have J.R. As my best man.

[APRIL LAUGHS]

APRIL: On second thought,
I think we should elope.

[PHONE RINGING]

- I should have shut the phone off.
- Go ahead.

- Hello?
- April? It's me.

- Oh, we were just talking about you.
- I bet.

- Can I talk to Bobby?
- How did you know he was here?

It's important.
I don't wanna play 20 Questions with you.

It's my sister, as endearing as ever.

She wants to talk to you.

Hello, Michelle?

Bobby...

...I have some very important information.

- Can we meet?
- Sure we can.

My office, 10:00 tomorrow?

Ten o'clock, but not in your office.

Okay. Where?

WOMAN [O VER INTERCOM]:
Captain Holgar is here.

All right, bring him in.

- Will there be anything else, Mr. McKay?
- No. Thank you, Nancy.

Sit down, Captain Holgar.

I wanna review the testimony you're gonna
give before the Barnes commission.

First I...

I wanna tell you again
how sorry I am about the Prometheus.

Why are you sorry?
You weren't responsible.

No, of course not.

- Tell me about the radar. Was it working?
- Yes, the equipment was in perfect shape.

Then why in the hell didn't you see
the Faraway Hill on the screen?

We were short-handed. You knew that.

The cutback in personnel made it very
difficult to follow through on everything.

You are not going to tell the committee
that that radar wasn't being manned.

Then how do I explain
we did not pick up the Faraway Hill?

Tell them you did see it
and you were trying to get out of its way.

What about the crew size?

The crew size was cut back,
but it was still within legal limits.

I expect my captains
to be able to operate within Westar rules.

Yes, sir. I understand.

Well, you'd better,
or you'll be the next one cut back.

Yes, sir.

I want Westar to come out of this
with flying colors.

Yes, sir. I understand.

Good.

- Hello.
- Hi.

I was surprised
that you found me at April's.

You weren't at Southfork.
Where else would you have been?

Like I said,
I have some information for you.

About what?

Cliff Barnes. McKay's blackmailing him.

How?

He has a tape of Cliff romping
with Mrs. McKay in a hotel room.

- McKay isn't married.
- According to Cliff, he is.

So he set him up with his own wife?

- Real class act, huh?
- Wait a minute.

Why would he try and blackmail Cliff,
anyway?

Cliff's out to nail us.

I don't know.

I just thought
maybe you could use the information.

Michelle,
why are you bringing this to me?

I thought you were on Cliff's side
in everything.

I'm not on anybody's side.

Just my own.

You know,
April's the luckiest woman in the world.

[KNOCKING]

MICHELLE: Cliff, if you forget
your key again, you can have...

- Get out of here.
- Not until you listen to me.

I know.

"Are you gonna believe me
or your lying eyes?"

- Why don't you stop it and listen to me?
- Because I believed you.

I thought you were different,
that we could have a relationship.

That we could be honest with each other.
And you lied just like everybody else.

- It was business, that's all.
- No.

Business is in the boardroom.
Sex is in the bedroom.

- Nothing happened between us.
- Why?

Because I showed up?

You sure as hell didn't come running
after me.

You probably stayed there
and made love with her.

- No, I didn't.
- Stop lying to me!

Okay, you want the truth?
I'll give it to you.

That lady was Diana Farrington,
the one you showed us on TV.

- Is that supposed to make it better?
- She had a deal with my father:

Her vote in exchange for a job
for her husband.

And to seal the deal,
they kind of went to bed together.

I didn't see J.R. Naked in bed with her,
but I sure as hell saw you.

Cally showed up. He got out just in time.

When you knocked, I thought it was her.
That's why I got undressed.

I wanted her to think it was me
in bed with Diana.

You know what?

I could've understood if you had told me
you suddenly ended up in bed with her.

Sex, lust, one of those things, whatever.

But trying to cover it up
by blaming it on J. R...

...because you're not man enough
to tell the truth makes me sick.

It is the truth.

I want you out of here.
We're finished, over, through.

Hey, that's the way you want it? Fine.

I can't believe I was stupid enough
to think you actually cared about me.

That's right.
All caring does is make you a patsy.

Well, you got that straight.

I hope I never see you again.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Yes?

My name is Bobby Ewing.
I'd like to speak to Mrs. McKay.

- I'll tell her you're here.
ROSE: It's all right, Carla, I'll talk to him.

Mrs. McKay?

You sound surprised.

I was surprised to find out
Carter McKay was married.

Especially to someone like me, right?

- I didn't say that.
- But I ain't what you expected.

Actually, considering everything I've heard,
you are exactly what I expected.

Now, what's that supposed to mean?
Just what have you heard?

Well, I heard about you and Cliff Barnes
and the videotape.

- How did you find out?
- That doesn't matter much.

McKay is blackmailing Cliff, isn't he?

He's trying to put my company
out of business.

What's that to me?

If you know where that tape is,
I'm prepared to negotiate.

You think I'd sell Mac out for money?

Considering what you've already done,
I think you'd do about anything for money.

Well, you're wrong.
Mac and me, we care about each other.

He has a very strange way
of showing that.

You don't understand.

He's not really like that.

When Tommy died,
it was terrible for him.

Nothing mattered to him.

But now I do.

He needs me. I know that.

And I need him.

I love him.
I wouldn't do anything to hurt him.

The two of you sit around
and watch that cassette...

...and talk about how wonderful
your marriage is?

About how much you need each other?

- What a terrible thing to say.
- McKay is worried, isn't he?

There's something he doesn't want out.
That's the reason for the blackmail.

- I don't know anything about that.
- Well, I'm gonna find out.

And if you don't wanna sink
with your husband...

...you'd best get rid of that tape.

I wanna talk to you.

Well, James, I'm glad you're here.
I didn't get a chance to thank you.

Thank me? For what?
Helping you cheat on your wife?

You were protecting Cally
from getting hurt.

Isn't that your job, protecting your wife?

Oh, I explained all that to you.
It's strictly business.

No, it's lying. That's what it's all about.

You lying to Cally,
Diana lying to her husband.

It's a way of life here in Texas.

It's a way of life all over the world, son.

Yeah, my mother lied to her husband
about you.

I should have figured this out
a long time ago.

Well, it's not a big thing
if nobody gets hurt.

Yeah? Well, I got hurt.

Do you know why?
Because I tried to tell the truth.

Well, I've learned my lesson.

From now on,
I'm following in your footsteps...

...Daddy.

[DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES]

Look, McKay,
it's all going down your way.

- How did Captain Holgar do?
- Very believable.

I'm telling you, Westar is gonna
come out of this looking very good.

Well, I just wanted to make sure
there were no slip-ups.

I gave you my word.

You're not gonna need the tape.

As a matter of fact, when this is all over,
I want the original back and any copies.

We'll talk about it.

Just make sure
that the Ewings are found guilty.

Yeah.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

- Yeah?
WOMAN: There's an Ensign Malley...

...here to see you.

- Well, I'm busy.
- He says it's very important.

Send him in.

[KNOCKS]

- Mr. Barnes?
- What can I do for you?

- I'm Ensign Malley. I'm in the Coast Guard.
- Well, I can see that. That's nice.

- I'm a little busy.
- Yes, sir. I appreciate that.

But this has to do with the night
of the Ewing-Westar tanker collision.

What about it?

First I need your word
that anything I tell you is confidential.

If I get found out,
I could be court-martialed.

All right. It's confidential.

- The night of the accident, I was on radar.
- Okay.

After the Westar tanker
passed our last checkpoint...

...I was supposed to go off duty,
but I kept monitoring it.

- Up until the point of the accident?
- I picked up the Ewing tanker as well.

The Westar tanker
started drifting out of its lane...

...and the Ewing tanker
was just barely in its lane.

Are you telling me
that it was Westar's fault?

With the weather conditions and all,
I don't think it was anybody's fault.

They just sort of collided
in no man's land.

You haven't told anybody else?

No, sir.
Like I said, this has to be confidential.

All right. Trust me.

It's between us.

NARRATOR:
Next on Dallas:

J. R: I take full responsibility.
- Is it signed in invisible ink?

You're a fool, Bobby.

I'd rather deal with that
than sell out to you.

- Never tell the truth when a lie will do.
- It's a little late for that.

Come on, Shelley, I need to know.
Bobby's getting it from all sides.

- I just retired from the spy business.
J. R: You retire when I say you retire.

What has he got on you?
Eight-by-10s of your last Roman orgy?

Everything is up to your conscience.
That's why you're gonna do the right thing.
