Explosion was an accident,

Okay. Well, tell your helicopter pilot

[JERRY] My daughter,
when I was in my 30s,

went to school at Stanford.
I couldn't stand it.

She was so far from Arkansas.

So, I'd think of reasons
to make trips out there,

try to come up with
a little business or something.

I'd go out there with her, I'd...

We had an old office,
downtown Palo Alto. I...

Uh... Jean goes to class with her.

I said, "You know, I need to get
some things going out here,

if I'm gonna spend this kind of time."

So I went over to Brentwood,

about 20 or 30 miles from San Francisco.

And I bought about 25 lots

like I was gonna build 25 houses.

Except I drilled four gas wells.

And those four gas wells, in 18 months,

paid me enough money

for me to buy the Dallas Cowboys.

Paying attention to my kids

actually led to me getting involved

into the passion of my life.

And all along what I was trying to do

was hang out near my daughter.

Lot of things happen
that you didn't have planned

or don't have the strategy for.

Hey, Tom.

Now, I'm not saying I've done
anything right,

but I made my mind up a long time ago

I was gonna work with my kids.

And they're involved in everything.

They're involved in my leasing,

oil and gas, real estate.

And so, when I got the Cowboys, I got it

so that we could all work together.

I thought I was doing it for them.

But the one that got
the most out of it was me.

I just know it's not gonna be this time,

but you're gonna be sitting here
sometime in the future,

laying here sometime in the future...

...and this room's gonna be full
of your business associates

and the people you've
worked with all your life.

And more than likely,

your children and family
are gonna be there

because they're your children
and your family.

But you could have 'em there

because they're the people
you spent your life with,

you worked with, you fell down with,

you got up with.

[SNIFFLES]

Not just Thanksgiving and Christmas.

That's who you want to be with.

So when that time comes like this,

it's a celebration of your life

and you're not wishing
you'd spent a little more time

seeing a few more suns come up.

That's the trick.

That's the trick.

'Cause that's gonna be your glory.

I'm pretty proud of them Cowboys.

I'm pretty proud of...

the stuff we've done, and...

oil and gas.

It pales in comparison to how proud I am

to have lived my life
working with my kids.

[MONTY EXHALES]

You got a chance
to do something about that.

I hope you will.

And I'll tell you, young man,
you're no spring chicken.

And you ought to listen
to a little of this yourself.

Yes, sir. Yeah, I'm... [CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

chicken, that's for sure.

Think a lot of both of you guys.

Feeling's mutual.

[DALE] This is the line,

You can do whatever you want

Well, the shrimp's on your side.

[NATHAN] 'Cause you ate all

What?

I'm ready to negotiate.

[AINSLEY] You want to go upstairs?

I'm so full.

Are you full?

Very much so.

We're gonna excuse ourselves.

[DALE] Yeah, you do that.

I mean, they don't care

I mean, I had sex

[NATHAN LAUGHS]

You got an opinion on this, Nate?

Well, look, you two are so far
off my roadmap for parenting,

I don't know how
to guide you anywhere good.

Does anybody remember how to run

this damn sound system in this place?

- [DALE] You want... music?
- [TOMMY] Yeah.

I just don't know how
to operate this thing.

[DALE] What do you want to listen to?

Frankly, I don't give a shit.

Just something loud enough

[ARIANA] You still studying?

Uh, done studying.

- Now I'm working.
- Hmm.

I'm not gonna get much done
with you standing there, though.

Then I'll sit. Jefe, go.

- That's not what I meant.
- I know what you meant.

- [CHUCKLES]
- You need to learn to focus.

So what are you working on?

Um...

This is the Wolfcamp Shale.

It's the richest oil field in the world.

You got the Midland Basin here,
Delaware Basin further west.

But it's true shale, so solid rock

and all the oil's in pockets.

You have to drill horizontally
or frack it.

And drill deep, up to 10,000 feet.

Both are very, very expensive.

Not many companies can afford
the $10 million dollar investment

and come up with a dry hole, so...

All the grey are available
leases and mineral rights.

They're checkerboarded
throughout the basin.

Alone, they're not worth
the money or the risk,

but you cobble them all
together, you can sell them.

That's what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna take that money and go here.

This is Clear Fork field.

Lots of older production.

All the wells are vertical and shallow.

Lots of little companies
that go in and out of business.

I'll try to get leases
on the existing wells

or do farm-outs,

work over the old wells,
increase their production,

till I have enough money,
I can drill in Wolfcamp.

And then what?

Then we move to Fort Worth,

find the house of your dreams.

You tell me the rest of your dreams,

and I make them come true.

If only it were that easy.

Well, I didn't say it was gonna be easy.

I said it's what I'm gonna do.

[SENTIMENTAL MUSIC]

My dad told me a long time ago,
you got two choices.

You can either get really good
at balancing a checkbook or

make enough money you don't have to.

This is the way.

The funny thing about this place,

only way out of the patch is the patch.

Trick is staying out when you get out.

'Cause when the money comes,
it comes fast,

like a gambler at the blackjack table.

No matter how much he's up,
he can't walk away.

He gets addicted to the chase, and...

that's how you lose it all.

Mr. Hardin.

My name's Cooper Norris.

If you're looking for work,
I ain't got none.

If you're looking to sell me something,

I ain't got no money to buy it with.

I'm looking to make you money.

Yeah?

How you gonna do that?

Your oil lease expired in '97.

I don't sell my minerals.

I couldn't afford
to buy 'em if you were.

I want the lease.

It's dried up.

You'd have to put a frack well in.

Ain't nobody gonna do that
for an 80-acre parcel.

No, sir, but they'll do it
for 50 of them.

That's what I'm putting together.

That little pumpjack's
made for a 1,000-foot well.

Your oil seeped up
through a crack in the shale.

Stands to reason you drill
7,000 feet, go horizontal,

they'll find where your oil
seeped in from.

You've held onto the minerals for...

your grandkids, is my guess.

I can help you make them
worth something.

You know, you don't look like a landman.

Those are working man's boots.

Yes, sir.

[SIGHS] I'd want 20% of the royalty.

No, sir. You want 25.

An honest man in the patch.

My word's the only thing
I got on this planet,

and I won't ruin it for money.

Yeah, you say that now.

Wait till you get some.

You got a business card?

Uh, no, sir. Not yet.

Well, then,
let's head over to the house.

Business got to be done over coffee.

Yes, sir.
