1
00:00:01,294 --> 00:00:03,062
[theme music]
2
00:01:40,226 --> 00:01:43,896
[Michelle] James, I wanna know
who the hell this is,
3
00:01:43,897 --> 00:01:46,666
- and I wanna know now.
- Oh, well--
4
00:01:46,666 --> 00:01:49,035
It's simple.
I'm the one he is married to.
5
00:01:49,035 --> 00:01:52,205
- Legally married to.
- I am not talking to you.
6
00:01:52,205 --> 00:01:57,043
- I am talking to my husband.
- So am I. James, tell her.
7
00:01:57,043 --> 00:01:59,546
Look, Michelle.
I mean, we were married
8
00:01:59,546 --> 00:02:01,782
for about 37 seconds.
9
00:02:01,781 --> 00:02:03,916
- It's true you were married?
- Are married.
10
00:02:03,917 --> 00:02:06,586
Why do you say that?
Our marriage was annulled.
11
00:02:06,586 --> 00:02:08,655
And what's this about a baby?
12
00:02:08,655 --> 00:02:11,091
Didn't your father explain
any of this to you?
13
00:02:11,091 --> 00:02:14,461
Why don't we calm down
and discuss this like adults?
14
00:02:14,461 --> 00:02:17,030
- If this is some kind of--
- Can't believe I trusted you.
15
00:02:17,030 --> 00:02:20,700
It's very simple. James
and Debra Lynn were married.
16
00:02:20,700 --> 00:02:23,036
- Are married.
- The marriage was annulled.
17
00:02:23,036 --> 00:02:26,406
- What happened with that?
- I found out I was pregnant.
18
00:02:26,406 --> 00:02:30,277
Oh, yeah, the baby. What
do I have, a boy or what?
19
00:02:30,276 --> 00:02:33,079
A boy,
James Richard Beaumont, Jr.
20
00:02:33,079 --> 00:02:37,150
So you came here
to dump all this on us.
21
00:02:37,150 --> 00:02:40,053
You made a mistake and
we're supposed to pay for it?
22
00:02:40,053 --> 00:02:42,989
No, I came 'cause I've been
trying to find James
23
00:02:42,989 --> 00:02:45,191
for quite a while.
I felt he had the right
24
00:02:45,191 --> 00:02:49,595
to know we're still married
and about him being a father.
25
00:02:49,596 --> 00:02:52,499
I thought there'd be problems,
but I never expected to be
26
00:02:52,499 --> 00:02:56,036
treated like some gold digger.
You can go to hell.
27
00:02:56,036 --> 00:02:58,105
I'm going back
to get my son and leave.
28
00:02:58,104 --> 00:03:00,340
Not without me seeing my boy.
29
00:03:00,340 --> 00:03:03,143
Wait a minute. I think
I got a solution here.
30
00:03:03,143 --> 00:03:05,312
James, take Debra Lynn
to the hotel,
31
00:03:05,311 --> 00:03:07,380
pick up the child,
and bring him here.
32
00:03:07,380 --> 00:03:10,416
- If he's going, I'm going.
- Listen, we can work this out
33
00:03:10,417 --> 00:03:13,353
over dinner. And we
can persuade her to stay
34
00:03:13,353 --> 00:03:15,856
for a while. Now, what
do you think of that idea?
35
00:03:16,890 --> 00:03:19,393
- Yeah, how about it?
- I don't know.
36
00:03:19,392 --> 00:03:21,494
[James] Oh, come on.
37
00:03:23,530 --> 00:03:27,300
Well, I really did want Jimmy
to at least meet his father.
38
00:03:27,300 --> 00:03:30,170
And his father's wife.
39
00:03:31,271 --> 00:03:34,074
Yeah, I think it's gonna work
out just great.
40
00:03:38,778 --> 00:03:40,847
James can't be daddy
of that lady's baby
41
00:03:40,847 --> 00:03:43,216
and be married to Michelle
at the same time.
42
00:03:43,216 --> 00:03:47,253
Of course he can, butthead.
He's a Ewing. Right, Dad?
43
00:03:47,253 --> 00:03:50,123
Well, at least part
of him is, yes.
44
00:03:53,293 --> 00:03:55,829
I'll drive.
Why don't you sit in the back?
45
00:03:55,829 --> 00:03:57,898
- No problem.
- Why don't I drive?
46
00:03:57,897 --> 00:03:59,966
That way, we'll all
be comfortable.
47
00:03:59,966 --> 00:04:02,335
- Fine.
- Fine.
48
00:04:03,603 --> 00:04:06,973
- You out for a night in town?
- Oh, something like that.
49
00:04:09,008 --> 00:04:11,310
Have a good time.
50
00:04:17,083 --> 00:04:19,552
- Come on, Dad. Tell him.
- I haven't given it
51
00:04:19,552 --> 00:04:22,121
a lot of thought,
but I suppose it's true, yes.
52
00:04:22,122 --> 00:04:24,191
I told you I was an uncle.
53
00:04:24,190 --> 00:04:26,726
If you're an uncle, then
I must be his second cousin.
54
00:04:26,726 --> 00:04:29,395
- Right, Uncle J.R.?
- Who's an uncle?
55
00:04:29,395 --> 00:04:32,932
- Well, I am. Kind of.
- Is Michelle pregnant?
56
00:04:32,932 --> 00:04:35,768
[J.R.] Oh, no, no.
Nothing like that.
57
00:04:35,769 --> 00:04:40,941
James had another relationship
a couple of years ago, and...
58
00:04:42,142 --> 00:04:44,344
Bob, you know
how things tend to happen
59
00:04:44,344 --> 00:04:47,314
- when you're not around.
- Yeah, I have noticed that.
60
00:04:47,313 --> 00:04:49,816
Well, this story
has a two-drink minimum.
61
00:04:59,025 --> 00:05:01,494
It's hard to believe you
couldn't find him.
62
00:05:01,494 --> 00:05:03,796
When James left school,
we tried to find him.
63
00:05:03,797 --> 00:05:05,866
Daddy even hired
a couple of agencies,
64
00:05:05,865 --> 00:05:08,768
but we couldn't come up
with anything.
65
00:05:08,768 --> 00:05:12,372
- So where's the little guy?
- With the sitter, sleeping.
66
00:05:20,113 --> 00:05:23,116
Okay. What are you
gonna do about this?
67
00:05:23,116 --> 00:05:26,586
- About what?
- What do you mean, what?
68
00:05:26,586 --> 00:05:29,155
About this,
about her, the baby?
69
00:05:29,155 --> 00:05:31,824
Look, this is just as big
a shock to me
70
00:05:31,825 --> 00:05:34,661
as it is to you.
So get off my case.
71
00:05:34,661 --> 00:05:39,466
Just answer me one question,
and you better tell the truth.
72
00:05:39,465 --> 00:05:42,401
If you found out about this
before we were married,
73
00:05:42,402 --> 00:05:44,471
would you have gone through
with our marriage?
74
00:05:44,470 --> 00:05:47,473
That's a dumb question. If
I was already married to her,
75
00:05:47,473 --> 00:05:51,277
- how could I marry you?
- You know what I mean.
76
00:05:53,112 --> 00:05:56,115
Well, he was pretty good
most of the evening,
77
00:05:56,115 --> 00:05:58,818
but he could be a cuss
when his mind is set.
78
00:05:58,818 --> 00:06:00,753
I bet he can be a real pip.
79
00:06:00,753 --> 00:06:04,023
I've sat for a lot of kids
here at this hotel,
80
00:06:04,023 --> 00:06:06,526
and I can spot them
a mile away.
81
00:06:06,526 --> 00:06:10,096
Yes, sir. This one
has the eye of the devil.
82
00:06:10,096 --> 00:06:12,198
You folks friends,
relatives, what?
83
00:06:12,198 --> 00:06:14,434
- That remains to be seen.
- Well,
84
00:06:14,434 --> 00:06:16,569
- he's a pistol, that boy.
- Yeah.
85
00:06:16,569 --> 00:06:19,505
- Well, nice meeting you.
- [James clears throat]
86
00:06:22,175 --> 00:06:24,244
Wow.
87
00:06:26,679 --> 00:06:31,017
- Oh, man.
- Daddy?
88
00:06:31,017 --> 00:06:34,754
That's right. Daddy.
Heh-heh-heh.
89
00:06:34,754 --> 00:06:38,224
It's gonna take me few minutes
to get packed up.
90
00:06:38,224 --> 00:06:41,227
- Think you can handle him?
- Yeah, no problem.
91
00:06:41,227 --> 00:06:43,496
- Hey.
- There's your son.
92
00:06:43,496 --> 00:06:48,301
Oh, you're a real monster for
your age, huh? Look at you.
93
00:06:48,301 --> 00:06:50,403
That's great.
There goes your ball.
94
00:06:50,403 --> 00:06:52,472
- You like playing baseball?
- Yeah.
95
00:06:52,472 --> 00:06:55,642
[James] Alright.
He's something, isn't he?
96
00:06:57,944 --> 00:07:01,514
[Raoul] Would you like me
to serve dinner, Mr. Ewing?
97
00:07:01,514 --> 00:07:03,416
Yeah, might as well.
98
00:07:03,416 --> 00:07:05,985
No telling when the troops
will be back.
99
00:07:05,985 --> 00:07:08,054
Or what shape
they're gonna be in.
100
00:07:08,054 --> 00:07:10,456
Don't worry about it,
it's all gonna work out.
101
00:07:10,456 --> 00:07:13,125
Yeah, sure.
Alright, boys, come on.
102
00:07:13,126 --> 00:07:15,261
Let's go eat, I'm starving
to death. Come on.
103
00:07:15,261 --> 00:07:17,330
Can we wait
a little longer, Dad?
104
00:07:17,330 --> 00:07:19,532
It we'll be great to eat
with my own nephew.
105
00:07:19,532 --> 00:07:22,902
What are you pumped about?
Being an uncle is no big deal.
106
00:07:22,902 --> 00:07:26,205
All you do is sit and wait
for somebody to have a baby.
107
00:07:27,774 --> 00:07:30,510
Yes, a gusher. Pay up.
108
00:07:33,112 --> 00:07:36,282
- I'm killing him, Dad.
- Glad to hear, let's go.
109
00:07:36,282 --> 00:07:38,551
[John Ross] Stupid game anyway.
110
00:07:39,552 --> 00:07:42,155
It's about time.
111
00:07:42,155 --> 00:07:44,424
Let's go and have dinner,
what do you say?
112
00:07:44,424 --> 00:07:47,327
I had no idea it takes
so long to move a kid.
113
00:07:47,327 --> 00:07:49,396
They've got so much stuff.
114
00:07:49,395 --> 00:07:51,631
We haven't been introduced
officially. I'm Bobby Ewing.
115
00:07:51,631 --> 00:07:54,467
- Hi, Debra Lynn Beaumont.
- Well, I assumed as much.
116
00:07:54,467 --> 00:07:57,070
- It's nice to meet you.
- Hey, can he sit on my lap
117
00:07:57,070 --> 00:07:59,906
during dinner? I'm pretty good
with a bottle.
118
00:07:59,906 --> 00:08:02,008
Thank you.
Jimmy eats regular food.
119
00:08:02,008 --> 00:08:04,310
But he's not quite ready
for a formal sit-down.
120
00:08:04,310 --> 00:08:07,713
So I think he better eat
with me, at least for tonight.
121
00:08:09,515 --> 00:08:11,584
Debra Lynn,
why don't you sit there
122
00:08:11,584 --> 00:08:15,154
- at the head of the table?
- I thought you needed
123
00:08:15,154 --> 00:08:17,790
a dispensation from God
to sit in that seat.
124
00:08:17,790 --> 00:08:20,593
- [J.R.] Not if you're blood.
- Thank you.
125
00:08:20,593 --> 00:08:22,995
My daddy would be happy
to see his great-grandson
126
00:08:22,996 --> 00:08:25,298
sitting in that
big old chair of his.
127
00:08:28,634 --> 00:08:32,071
James, you kind of got
two wives now, right?
128
00:08:32,071 --> 00:08:34,340
Yeah, sort of.
129
00:08:34,340 --> 00:08:37,109
So I was wondering,
are you all gonna stay
130
00:08:37,110 --> 00:08:40,013
- in the same room?
- [sighs]
131
00:08:40,013 --> 00:08:42,415
[sighs]
132
00:08:52,025 --> 00:08:54,327
That was some day, huh?
133
00:08:55,461 --> 00:08:58,197
I guess it's been weird
for you too.
134
00:08:58,197 --> 00:09:00,800
Nothing I can't handle.
However, I am
135
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,137
in desperate need
for your patented back rubs.
136
00:09:04,137 --> 00:09:06,439
Yeah, you got it.
137
00:09:11,711 --> 00:09:14,581
This isn't gonna happen
every other week, is it?
138
00:09:14,580 --> 00:09:16,615
I mean, I know
you're a stud and all,
139
00:09:16,616 --> 00:09:18,918
but I don't wanna see
anymore critters
140
00:09:18,918 --> 00:09:21,421
- showing up at our door.
- [chuckles]
141
00:09:21,421 --> 00:09:24,991
It's amazing how much stuff
a little kid needs.
142
00:09:24,991 --> 00:09:27,427
We gotta go pick up
the rest tomorrow.
143
00:09:27,427 --> 00:09:29,596
It's a lot of work
taking care of a baby.
144
00:09:29,595 --> 00:09:32,198
Yeah, but he's something
else, isn't he?
145
00:09:32,198 --> 00:09:34,867
I was down in their room.
Soon as he saw me, he comes
146
00:09:34,867 --> 00:09:37,870
running and picks up his ball.
He wants to play catch.
147
00:09:38,805 --> 00:09:40,907
What a neat kid.
148
00:09:40,907 --> 00:09:44,544
We can have many blonde-headed
little babies as you want.
149
00:09:44,544 --> 00:09:48,481
Oh, I think one junior me
running around here
150
00:09:48,481 --> 00:09:51,250
is about all the world
can take.
151
00:09:51,250 --> 00:09:54,353
I could be pregnant now.
You never know.
152
00:09:54,353 --> 00:09:56,655
You're not, are you?
153
00:09:58,691 --> 00:10:00,793
No, James. I'm not.
154
00:10:07,500 --> 00:10:11,637
Listen, I'm starving. You want
some ice cream or something?
155
00:10:11,637 --> 00:10:13,906
No, I'm gonna go
straight to bed.
156
00:10:13,906 --> 00:10:16,208
But don't let me stop you.
157
00:10:17,643 --> 00:10:20,179
You know,
all things considered,
158
00:10:20,179 --> 00:10:22,481
you were pretty cool today.
159
00:10:27,887 --> 00:10:29,522
Thanks.
160
00:10:41,167 --> 00:10:45,538
- [knocks on door]
- Hi. I'm glad everything
161
00:10:45,538 --> 00:10:48,241
is working out well.
Wanted to say good night.
162
00:10:48,241 --> 00:10:50,577
And now you've said it.
Good night.
163
00:10:50,576 --> 00:10:53,145
Debra Lynn, you got
the rights to be angry at me.
164
00:10:53,146 --> 00:10:55,815
I was just trying
to protect my son.
165
00:10:55,815 --> 00:10:59,285
You're a parent,
you should understand that.
166
00:10:59,285 --> 00:11:01,587
It's not quite
the same, is it?
167
00:11:03,823 --> 00:11:05,692
All children are the same.
168
00:11:05,691 --> 00:11:07,993
Six to 60,
they'll always be yours.
169
00:11:07,994 --> 00:11:10,763
And you gotta protect them
the best way you can.
170
00:11:10,763 --> 00:11:13,065
Is this supposed
to make me feel better?
171
00:11:13,065 --> 00:11:15,834
Darling, you're a great girl.
172
00:11:15,835 --> 00:11:18,871
And I admire the way you're
bringing up my grandson, but--
173
00:11:18,871 --> 00:11:21,774
- But?
- Ever since James and Michelle
174
00:11:21,774 --> 00:11:25,678
got married, I could see
a difference in his attitude.
175
00:11:25,678 --> 00:11:30,683
He's, uh... He's focused,
determined, very happy.
176
00:11:30,683 --> 00:11:32,752
I didn't intention
to interfere
177
00:11:32,752 --> 00:11:36,322
with everyone's life,
especially James'.
178
00:11:36,322 --> 00:11:38,191
Now that I had
the chance to talk to him
179
00:11:38,191 --> 00:11:41,928
and see what his situation is,
I understand it better.
180
00:11:41,928 --> 00:11:44,531
I was hoping you would.
181
00:11:45,531 --> 00:11:49,635
Look, it's late. I've gotta
get Jimmy ready for bed.
182
00:11:50,670 --> 00:11:53,173
Well, hey, Jimmy.
183
00:11:53,172 --> 00:11:56,876
Give your granddaddy a big old
hug good night, huh? Ha-ha-ha.
184
00:11:58,778 --> 00:12:00,880
There you go, son.
185
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,816
I just wanna let you know
I'm gonna do everything I can
186
00:12:03,816 --> 00:12:07,653
to make sure this situation is
handled as fairly as possible.
187
00:12:07,653 --> 00:12:10,689
I appreciate that.
Good night, Mr. Ewing.
188
00:12:12,258 --> 00:12:15,161
J.R., please.
189
00:12:15,161 --> 00:12:17,497
Good night, J.R...
190
00:12:26,038 --> 00:12:28,107
Well, buster, looks like
191
00:12:28,107 --> 00:12:30,443
you've made yourself
quite a fan. Yeah!
192
00:12:30,443 --> 00:12:32,745
Buster, it's time
to get ready for bed now.
193
00:12:42,588 --> 00:12:44,690
Hi, there.
194
00:12:45,958 --> 00:12:49,695
Well, all in all, I thought
that went pretty smoothly.
195
00:12:50,596 --> 00:12:52,898
You're just happy
you didn't get shot.
196
00:12:53,666 --> 00:12:55,735
I'm head of the family now.
I want to make
197
00:12:55,735 --> 00:12:58,605
absolute certain
that the whole situation
198
00:12:58,604 --> 00:13:01,240
is handled
as fairly as possible.
199
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,543
Fair? Who the hell
cares about fair?
200
00:13:04,543 --> 00:13:06,812
I care about James
and me, period.
201
00:13:06,812 --> 00:13:09,648
And you better start
thinking the same way.
202
00:13:09,649 --> 00:13:12,652
Because if we're not legal
married partners,
203
00:13:12,652 --> 00:13:15,755
then we certainly aren't
legal business partners.
204
00:13:16,889 --> 00:13:19,492
You know, up to now,
I could never figure out
205
00:13:19,492 --> 00:13:22,528
why you'd trade
half of Ewing Oil for James.
206
00:13:25,431 --> 00:13:27,800
I'm sure you figured I was
just a manipulative
207
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,903
little bitch
trying to stick it to you.
208
00:13:31,871 --> 00:13:35,108
Yeah, well,
I've learned differently.
209
00:13:35,107 --> 00:13:37,343
You have?
210
00:13:37,343 --> 00:13:40,313
Yeah, you really love James.
211
00:13:40,313 --> 00:13:43,783
And you want the two of you
to live happily ever after.
212
00:13:46,552 --> 00:13:48,621
Assume what you want.
213
00:13:48,621 --> 00:13:50,857
But I'm not changing
my deal with James
214
00:13:50,856 --> 00:13:54,426
until Debra Lynn leaves town
on the noon stage,
215
00:13:54,427 --> 00:13:56,729
carrying some kind
of divorce papers.
216
00:13:56,729 --> 00:14:00,233
- Well, don't get carried away.
- If I'm not legally married,
217
00:14:00,232 --> 00:14:03,869
you can forget about a Ewing
ever having anything to do
218
00:14:03,869 --> 00:14:06,171
with Ewing Oil.
219
00:14:06,172 --> 00:14:08,474
You got
that straight, Grandpa?
220
00:14:21,053 --> 00:14:23,322
Well, you're up and at 'em
early this morning.
221
00:14:23,322 --> 00:14:26,592
I've got lots of stuff
to do at the office.
222
00:14:26,592 --> 00:14:29,028
So do you. We gotta get going.
223
00:14:29,028 --> 00:14:31,397
Oh, not today.
224
00:14:31,397 --> 00:14:33,232
Come on,
work will always be there.
225
00:14:33,232 --> 00:14:35,968
I don't know how long Jimmy
will be here, I wanna spend
226
00:14:35,968 --> 00:14:38,471
the day at the ranch.
227
00:14:38,471 --> 00:14:41,174
James, if you're not going
to work today,
228
00:14:41,173 --> 00:14:43,809
why don't I ditch school,
we can do some bike riding.
229
00:14:43,809 --> 00:14:47,780
- I found a great new trail.
- Oh, I don't know, John Ross.
230
00:14:50,316 --> 00:14:53,119
Okay, everyone,
I was in a cooking mood,
231
00:14:53,119 --> 00:14:56,189
so, well, I hope you all like
West Point omelets.
232
00:14:56,188 --> 00:14:58,991
- I kinda made a huge one.
- A West Point omelet.
233
00:14:58,991 --> 00:15:01,594
I haven't had
one of those in years.
234
00:15:01,594 --> 00:15:03,863
I remember the first one
you made for me.
235
00:15:03,863 --> 00:15:06,165
Our first breakfast together.
236
00:15:07,767 --> 00:15:11,237
That was some long night.
237
00:15:11,237 --> 00:15:13,206
How nice.
238
00:15:13,205 --> 00:15:16,742
Come on, John Ross. We're
gonna be late for school.
239
00:15:17,710 --> 00:15:21,314
So, what do you think, James?
About today, I mean.
240
00:15:21,313 --> 00:15:23,615
No, you better go to school.
241
00:15:25,751 --> 00:15:28,754
So you're not gonna come
in at all today?
242
00:15:28,754 --> 00:15:31,624
- [James] No.
- Fine.
243
00:15:31,624 --> 00:15:33,693
I'll take care
of things, then.
244
00:15:33,692 --> 00:15:35,994
- See you tonight then.
- Okay.
245
00:15:37,863 --> 00:15:41,300
When I get back today,
maybe we can work on my ATV.
246
00:15:41,300 --> 00:15:44,270
It's not running too well.
I think it's the carburetor.
247
00:15:44,270 --> 00:15:46,572
I'm sorry, John Ross.
Not today.
248
00:15:46,572 --> 00:15:48,641
Yeah, right.
249
00:15:48,641 --> 00:15:50,943
[engine revving]
250
00:16:01,787 --> 00:16:04,790
- Good morning, Michelle.
- Yeah, wonderful.
251
00:16:04,790 --> 00:16:07,092
- Can you get me Cliff Barnes?
- Of course,
252
00:16:07,092 --> 00:16:09,795
but there's a group of men
waiting to see James.
253
00:16:09,795 --> 00:16:11,897
You might wanna talk
to them first.
254
00:16:11,897 --> 00:16:14,833
James isn't coming in today.
Do you know what they want?
255
00:16:14,834 --> 00:16:17,770
I think today's D-day
for the contracts
256
00:16:17,770 --> 00:16:21,741
- on the deal James negotiated.
- Damn.
257
00:16:21,740 --> 00:16:25,811
How could he
have forgotten? [sighs]
258
00:16:31,984 --> 00:16:35,054
Good morning.
I'm sorry I'm so late.
259
00:16:35,054 --> 00:16:37,356
We've been waiting
over an hour.
260
00:16:37,356 --> 00:16:41,427
- I'm sure you are aware that--
- No, don't jump on the lady.
261
00:16:41,427 --> 00:16:44,297
I'm sure
she has a good reason.
262
00:16:45,664 --> 00:16:47,799
Either that or she and James
have picked up
263
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,202
- on some of J.R.'s old tricks.
- Now,
264
00:16:50,202 --> 00:16:52,938
maybe we taught him
a couple of new ones.
265
00:16:54,173 --> 00:16:56,742
Where is Mr. Beaumont?
266
00:16:57,610 --> 00:17:00,546
I'm afraid
he's not coming in today.
267
00:17:00,546 --> 00:17:02,648
Gentlemen, please sit down.
268
00:17:02,648 --> 00:17:06,452
Well, your signature
will be fine.
269
00:17:06,452 --> 00:17:09,488
You can see, we made
the agreed-upon adjustments
270
00:17:09,488 --> 00:17:12,491
on the contract.
The CPP will be based
271
00:17:12,491 --> 00:17:14,827
on an ascending payback scale
272
00:17:14,827 --> 00:17:18,064
starting, of course, with
the rounded figure of $3.19
273
00:17:18,063 --> 00:17:22,935
under the WSP
for the first 1,000 BPDs.
274
00:17:22,935 --> 00:17:25,137
And if we don't hit
our target goal
275
00:17:25,137 --> 00:17:28,140
of 6,000 BPDs,
Ewing Oil promises
276
00:17:28,140 --> 00:17:31,310
to accept responsibility
for any shortfall.
277
00:17:33,679 --> 00:17:35,748
Oh, dear.
278
00:17:35,748 --> 00:17:39,051
I guess I'm gonna have
to be honest with you.
279
00:17:39,051 --> 00:17:43,689
I am in way over my head here.
This is James' deal.
280
00:17:45,925 --> 00:17:49,028
Contractually, this deal
is deemed void
281
00:17:49,028 --> 00:17:51,197
if it's not completed
by 12 o'clock today.
282
00:17:51,196 --> 00:17:54,132
Now, if you're trying
to back out,
283
00:17:54,133 --> 00:17:56,902
you're in for the lawsuit
of your life, lady.
284
00:17:58,537 --> 00:18:00,672
James will be in tomorrow.
285
00:18:00,673 --> 00:18:03,376
He's the one
with the head for business.
286
00:18:03,375 --> 00:18:06,612
I'm more of a PR specialist.
287
00:18:06,612 --> 00:18:09,048
In fact, if you'd allow me
288
00:18:09,048 --> 00:18:11,817
to escort you
to the Oil Barons,
289
00:18:11,817 --> 00:18:15,120
well, you'll discover
I give great...
290
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:16,989
lunch.
291
00:18:16,989 --> 00:18:20,726
And maybe you fellas could
explain the difference to me
292
00:18:20,726 --> 00:18:23,796
between CPDs and BVDs.
293
00:18:23,796 --> 00:18:26,599
I never can keep
them straight.
294
00:18:26,599 --> 00:18:29,502
[both men chuckling]
295
00:18:29,501 --> 00:18:33,972
Well, I can't see any harm
on a 24-hour extension.
296
00:18:33,973 --> 00:18:36,776
Well, you got yourself
a deal, little lady.
297
00:18:37,977 --> 00:18:39,412
Great.
298
00:18:43,415 --> 00:18:45,050
Thank you.
299
00:18:49,388 --> 00:18:51,090
Thank you.
300
00:18:51,957 --> 00:18:54,593
So how's everything
been going with you?
301
00:18:54,593 --> 00:18:56,662
It's been tough,
but we survived.
302
00:18:56,662 --> 00:18:58,731
Yeah. How are your folks?
303
00:18:58,731 --> 00:19:01,067
In spite of everything,
I really liked your dad.
304
00:19:01,066 --> 00:19:03,135
They're fine,
I'm still living with them.
305
00:19:03,135 --> 00:19:05,704
Yeah? Must be a lot
of guys hanging around.
306
00:19:05,704 --> 00:19:08,273
You know,
you're still real pretty.
307
00:19:08,273 --> 00:19:10,142
There's some, but nobody
308
00:19:10,142 --> 00:19:14,079
that got my attention
like you did.
309
00:19:14,079 --> 00:19:18,417
Michelle seems like a nice
girl. You're a lucky guy.
310
00:19:18,417 --> 00:19:21,820
Yeah, well, we kind of have
a real strange relationship.
311
00:19:21,820 --> 00:19:24,456
It's mostly
business, actually,
312
00:19:24,456 --> 00:19:28,827
but we're working real hard to
try and work everything out.
313
00:19:28,827 --> 00:19:31,129
Swing, push.
314
00:19:31,130 --> 00:19:35,034
- What's the magic word?
- Push me now.
315
00:19:35,034 --> 00:19:38,738
- The other one.
- Please.
316
00:19:38,737 --> 00:19:43,475
Okay. Five, four, three,
317
00:19:43,475 --> 00:19:47,212
two, one. Blast off.
318
00:19:47,212 --> 00:19:50,415
Well, I think
we should get going soon.
319
00:19:50,416 --> 00:19:53,152
Yeah, just a few more minutes.
320
00:19:53,152 --> 00:19:55,755
- What's the magic word?
- [Jimmy] Please.
321
00:19:55,754 --> 00:19:58,056
Please, yeah.
322
00:20:00,526 --> 00:20:05,498
See, Jimmy? Your daddy's
a kid, just like you are.
323
00:20:05,497 --> 00:20:07,466
Only a lot bigger.
324
00:20:07,466 --> 00:20:10,269
I guess that's why I fell
in love with him.
325
00:20:18,844 --> 00:20:21,146
We really better get going.
326
00:20:50,743 --> 00:20:52,378
Jory?
327
00:20:59,418 --> 00:21:01,520
I've seen my mother.
328
00:21:04,757 --> 00:21:07,059
She told me everything.
329
00:21:11,797 --> 00:21:14,133
What exactly
did she tell you, Jory?
330
00:21:14,133 --> 00:21:18,170
Enough to know that everything
I believe in has been a lie.
331
00:21:19,972 --> 00:21:22,241
Bobby, the woman I talked to
was not the woman
332
00:21:22,241 --> 00:21:24,410
that raised me.
333
00:21:25,277 --> 00:21:28,347
How could she do
something like that?
334
00:21:28,347 --> 00:21:31,550
I mean, she actually planned
somebody's murder.
335
00:21:33,185 --> 00:21:36,055
This is the same woman
that I used to talk to
336
00:21:36,054 --> 00:21:40,859
about school and boys
and everything.
337
00:21:40,859 --> 00:21:42,928
She just sat there, telling me
338
00:21:42,928 --> 00:21:45,330
what a shame
that your wife got shot.
339
00:21:45,330 --> 00:21:48,333
But that you shouldn't have
interfered with her plans.
340
00:21:48,333 --> 00:21:51,603
I mean, what kind
of a woman is she, Bobby?
341
00:21:52,905 --> 00:21:55,975
What kind of a person
does it make me?
342
00:21:58,610 --> 00:22:01,012
[sobbing]
343
00:22:03,382 --> 00:22:05,484
I'm sorry.
344
00:22:06,952 --> 00:22:10,622
I didn't come all this way
just to fall apart on you.
345
00:22:12,724 --> 00:22:15,060
Why did you come?
346
00:22:17,462 --> 00:22:19,564
I'm not real sure.
347
00:22:20,899 --> 00:22:22,968
All I know is, it's important
348
00:22:22,968 --> 00:22:25,237
that you understand
how I feel.
349
00:22:25,237 --> 00:22:29,308
- Jory, I do understand.
- And there's so many
350
00:22:29,308 --> 00:22:32,411
other things I just wanna talk
to you about.
351
00:22:34,346 --> 00:22:37,115
Well, why don't we find a
nice, quiet place to do that?
352
00:22:38,951 --> 00:22:42,655
Can a beachcomber
like you ride a horse?
353
00:22:43,622 --> 00:22:45,924
[chuckles]
354
00:22:50,429 --> 00:22:52,564
I have been warning you
for years.
355
00:22:52,564 --> 00:22:55,133
Now I'm telling you,
either you start to behave
356
00:22:55,133 --> 00:22:58,703
- or you find a new physician.
- Paul,
357
00:22:58,704 --> 00:23:01,440
you make me sound like I'm
ready for the glue factory.
358
00:23:06,578 --> 00:23:10,615
You are overweight.
You are overstressed.
359
00:23:10,616 --> 00:23:12,485
Your blood pressure
360
00:23:12,484 --> 00:23:15,053
is only a few points lower
than your cholesterol,
361
00:23:15,053 --> 00:23:17,489
which is practically off
the chart.
362
00:23:17,489 --> 00:23:21,727
You are about to explode.
Do you understand me?
363
00:23:21,727 --> 00:23:24,530
Thank God you don't smoke.
364
00:23:24,529 --> 00:23:27,899
Year after year, you yell
at me for the same thing.
365
00:23:27,900 --> 00:23:29,969
I don't know
why I bother coming here.
366
00:23:29,968 --> 00:23:32,637
Because you don't wanna die.
367
00:23:32,638 --> 00:23:35,341
You've got a family
and business to take care of.
368
00:23:35,340 --> 00:23:37,642
They need you healthy,
and you know it.
369
00:23:38,944 --> 00:23:41,046
Alright, what do you
want me to do?
370
00:23:44,249 --> 00:23:45,951
Okay.
371
00:23:47,152 --> 00:23:50,622
You are gonna start on
a regular program of exercise.
372
00:23:50,622 --> 00:23:53,892
And we are gonna put you
on a high-fiber, low-fat diet.
373
00:23:53,892 --> 00:23:56,661
You can forget about
red meat, and caffeine,
374
00:23:57,796 --> 00:23:59,865
and no more
than one drink per day.
375
00:23:59,865 --> 00:24:02,034
And that one drink
is not a fifth.
376
00:24:02,034 --> 00:24:05,571
It is no more
than one ounce of alcohol...
377
00:24:05,570 --> 00:24:07,672
per day. You got that?
378
00:24:10,142 --> 00:24:12,411
Yeah, I got it. Yeah.
379
00:24:15,547 --> 00:24:19,017
I'd forgotten how beautiful
Texas really is.
380
00:24:20,452 --> 00:24:23,522
Well, it's a lot quieter
than California.
381
00:24:23,522 --> 00:24:25,157
Yeah.
382
00:24:26,725 --> 00:24:30,562
You know, I never realized how
much it cost you to help me.
383
00:24:31,296 --> 00:24:34,299
I really messed up
your plans. I'm sorry.
384
00:24:34,299 --> 00:24:36,201
Don't be.
385
00:24:36,201 --> 00:24:39,271
All I wanted to do
was hurt your mother.
386
00:24:39,271 --> 00:24:41,373
I wanted to confront her
face to face,
387
00:24:41,373 --> 00:24:44,276
with you standing there,
and destroy the one thing
388
00:24:44,276 --> 00:24:46,779
she valued most:
her relationship with you.
389
00:24:47,479 --> 00:24:50,415
Yeah, well,
she did that herself.
390
00:24:50,415 --> 00:24:53,652
Anyway, that was
the old Bobby.
391
00:24:53,652 --> 00:24:56,788
I let go my desire for revenge
392
00:24:56,788 --> 00:25:00,292
and a lot of other things.
And you will too, Jory.
393
00:25:01,193 --> 00:25:03,295
I don't know.
394
00:25:03,295 --> 00:25:06,298
Everything used to be
so perfect.
395
00:25:06,298 --> 00:25:09,701
I loved the beach.
I loved acting.
396
00:25:09,701 --> 00:25:12,737
There was even this great guy
that moved in next door.
397
00:25:12,738 --> 00:25:16,108
First really terrific guy
I had ever met.
398
00:25:16,108 --> 00:25:18,177
And then, something happened.
399
00:25:18,176 --> 00:25:20,245
It was just like I woke up
from a dream,
400
00:25:20,245 --> 00:25:23,315
and now, there's nothing.
401
00:25:23,315 --> 00:25:25,818
All things pass, Jory.
402
00:25:25,817 --> 00:25:28,653
This will too.
Believe me, I know.
403
00:25:28,653 --> 00:25:31,356
I don't know, I've gotta start
my whole life over again,
404
00:25:31,356 --> 00:25:33,725
and I don't know
where to begin.
405
00:25:35,460 --> 00:25:37,762
What's wrong with right here?
406
00:25:39,231 --> 00:25:43,535
- Why here?
- You gotta start someplace.
407
00:25:43,535 --> 00:25:46,805
Besides, I'd like to help you.
I owe you that.
408
00:25:46,805 --> 00:25:49,041
Bobby, you don't
owe me anything.
409
00:25:49,041 --> 00:25:52,177
I feel responsible
for you, Jory.
410
00:25:52,177 --> 00:25:54,746
It's 'cause of me
that your life is torn apart
411
00:25:54,746 --> 00:25:56,615
the way it is.
412
00:25:56,615 --> 00:25:59,418
I'd like to help you put it
back together, if I can.
413
00:26:00,118 --> 00:26:02,887
So how do we go
about doing that?
414
00:26:03,922 --> 00:26:06,425
Well, the first thing,
we have to find you a hotel.
415
00:26:06,425 --> 00:26:08,494
I'd have you stay
at Southfork,
416
00:26:08,493 --> 00:26:10,562
but things
are crazy right now.
417
00:26:10,562 --> 00:26:14,766
And do you come
and visit me, or what?
418
00:26:14,766 --> 00:26:16,635
Yeah, I'll come and visit.
419
00:26:16,635 --> 00:26:19,404
And we'll discuss
the "or what" later.
420
00:26:20,305 --> 00:26:22,607
I'd like that.
421
00:26:36,388 --> 00:26:40,392
- [elevator dings]
- Well, hi there.
422
00:26:41,893 --> 00:26:46,564
There you are, darling. Oh.
Ha, ha. I'm sorry I'm late.
423
00:26:46,565 --> 00:26:49,401
- I had this appointment.
- That's okay.
424
00:26:49,401 --> 00:26:52,137
- You wanna sit here?
- Okay. Thank you.
425
00:26:53,205 --> 00:26:56,175
- The usual, Mr. Ewing?
- Yeah, yeah, make it a double.
426
00:26:56,174 --> 00:26:59,010
- Can I get you something?
- No, thank you.
427
00:26:59,010 --> 00:27:01,513
Since we had to meet away
from the ranch, I assume
428
00:27:01,513 --> 00:27:03,915
you must have something
important to say.
429
00:27:03,915 --> 00:27:07,285
That's what I like about you.
You get straight to the point.
430
00:27:07,285 --> 00:27:10,455
[chuckles] Thank you.
431
00:27:11,356 --> 00:27:13,658
Something wrong
with the drink, Mr. Ewing?
432
00:27:13,658 --> 00:27:15,727
Listen, you better
take this back.
433
00:27:15,727 --> 00:27:18,663
You got any iced tea?
Decaffeinated.
434
00:27:18,663 --> 00:27:22,500
- No, sir. Sorry, I don't.
- Alright,
435
00:27:22,501 --> 00:27:25,337
How about some soda water?
436
00:27:25,337 --> 00:27:27,873
Them bubbles
probably will kill me.
437
00:27:29,374 --> 00:27:31,443
You know, I'm so glad
everything is out
438
00:27:31,443 --> 00:27:35,547
in the open now.
You know, James is so excited.
439
00:27:35,547 --> 00:27:38,683
It's something special, seeing
your son for the first time.
440
00:27:38,683 --> 00:27:41,819
- They are having fun.
- Yeah. It's good for James.
441
00:27:41,820 --> 00:27:44,122
Good for Jimmy,
and good for you too.
442
00:27:44,122 --> 00:27:46,825
Yeah, I mean, despite
everything, I'm glad I came.
443
00:27:46,825 --> 00:27:50,228
Yeah, it's tough
being a single parent.
444
00:27:50,228 --> 00:27:53,465
But I suppose being with James
all day long
445
00:27:53,465 --> 00:27:55,801
took the pressure off you
for a while.
446
00:27:56,668 --> 00:27:59,004
Is this what you wanted
to talk to me about?
447
00:27:59,004 --> 00:28:02,374
[chuckles] No,
I'm a single parent myself,
448
00:28:02,374 --> 00:28:04,509
so I'm on your side.
449
00:28:04,509 --> 00:28:06,811
But there is James'
point of view.
450
00:28:06,811 --> 00:28:08,946
He knows what it's like
not to have a father,
451
00:28:08,947 --> 00:28:11,483
and I think that's why
he's so stuck on little Jimmy.
452
00:28:11,483 --> 00:28:13,819
- Is that so bad?
- No, no.
453
00:28:13,818 --> 00:28:16,654
But I may have a way
454
00:28:16,655 --> 00:28:18,724
that will make
everybody happy.
455
00:28:18,723 --> 00:28:23,728
Suppose, just suppose, that
you and James got a divorce,
456
00:28:24,563 --> 00:28:26,698
and suppose that you moved
down to Dallas,
457
00:28:26,698 --> 00:28:28,900
you could have
any kind of house you like.
458
00:28:28,900 --> 00:28:32,303
And you and little Jimmy
would never want for anything.
459
00:28:33,138 --> 00:28:37,476
And James would be there to be
the father that the boy needs.
460
00:28:39,010 --> 00:28:41,779
Now, what do you think?
Isn't that a good idea?
461
00:28:41,780 --> 00:28:44,816
I come from a small town,
Mr. Ewing.
462
00:28:44,816 --> 00:28:47,185
It's hard on my folks,
having Jimmy and me,
463
00:28:47,185 --> 00:28:49,320
but they love us to death.
464
00:28:49,321 --> 00:28:51,690
Sure, I'd like to be rich,
465
00:28:51,690 --> 00:28:55,427
but I'm not gonna sell my soul
to you to become it.
466
00:28:55,427 --> 00:28:57,963
Thank you for the offer.
If there's nothing else,
467
00:28:57,963 --> 00:29:02,434
I'm going back to Southfork.
Excuse me.
468
00:29:11,776 --> 00:29:13,878
Oh, God.
469
00:29:21,253 --> 00:29:23,322
James?
470
00:29:23,321 --> 00:29:26,391
[James] I'm in here.
I'll be out in a minute.
471
00:29:26,391 --> 00:29:28,493
Did you forget
something today?
472
00:29:28,493 --> 00:29:30,595
I don't know, did I?
473
00:29:30,595 --> 00:29:33,765
The contract signing
with Kane Industries?
474
00:29:33,765 --> 00:29:37,936
They were mad, but I managed
to work out an extension.
475
00:29:37,936 --> 00:29:39,805
Oh, great.
476
00:29:39,804 --> 00:29:41,873
They were really impressed
with you.
477
00:29:41,873 --> 00:29:45,577
John said you were one of
the best young oilmen around.
478
00:29:45,577 --> 00:29:47,879
John, huh? Heh, heh.
If you're already on
479
00:29:47,879 --> 00:29:50,715
a first-name basis,
you must have impressed them.
480
00:29:50,715 --> 00:29:52,784
They're tough to get close to.
481
00:29:52,784 --> 00:29:57,088
- What are you doing?
- I gotta move to another room.
482
00:29:57,088 --> 00:29:58,957
- What?
- I'm not moving in
483
00:29:58,957 --> 00:30:01,726
with Debra Lynn. But until
this marriage business
484
00:30:01,726 --> 00:30:04,762
gets settled, I don't think
I should be sleeping
485
00:30:04,763 --> 00:30:07,766
with you either.
It's not right.
486
00:30:07,766 --> 00:30:10,636
What does "not right"
have to do with anything?
487
00:30:12,370 --> 00:30:14,472
There are kids here.
I mean, it's up to us
488
00:30:14,472 --> 00:30:16,574
to create a sense of morality.
489
00:30:16,574 --> 00:30:19,310
Morality? In this house?
490
00:30:19,311 --> 00:30:22,648
Yeah, starting with us.
491
00:30:26,184 --> 00:30:30,388
Look. I think I understand,
492
00:30:30,388 --> 00:30:32,790
and I know you're right.
493
00:30:32,791 --> 00:30:35,060
But I want you
to know something.
494
00:30:35,060 --> 00:30:38,964
As far as I'm concerned,
regardless of what happens,
495
00:30:38,963 --> 00:30:43,201
we're man and wife. You got
that, James Richard Beaumont?
496
00:30:43,201 --> 00:30:45,570
Yeah, I got it.
497
00:30:47,205 --> 00:30:50,108
You know, you're alright.
You're keeping your cool,
498
00:30:50,108 --> 00:30:53,178
most people
would be going nuts.
499
00:30:53,178 --> 00:30:56,381
- I like that.
- Thanks.
500
00:30:57,916 --> 00:31:00,018
I'll see you.
501
00:31:05,256 --> 00:31:07,558
See you too.
502
00:31:18,002 --> 00:31:20,037
Hi.
503
00:31:20,038 --> 00:31:22,574
Hey, hello, Jimmy.
How are you doing?
504
00:31:23,541 --> 00:31:25,676
Look at your mama,
slaving away there.
505
00:31:25,677 --> 00:31:27,812
We got help
that can do that for you.
506
00:31:27,812 --> 00:31:29,914
I know. Jimmy's a fussy eater.
507
00:31:29,914 --> 00:31:32,383
If things aren't right,
meal time
508
00:31:32,384 --> 00:31:34,753
- can be pretty interesting.
- Well...
509
00:31:38,857 --> 00:31:42,427
Listen, about today,
it came out all wrong.
510
00:31:42,427 --> 00:31:44,429
It sounds like
you're trying to buy us.
511
00:31:44,429 --> 00:31:47,666
Well, if that's what you
heard, it's not what I meant.
512
00:31:47,665 --> 00:31:52,370
I was scared that you
would leave before I got home.
513
00:31:53,171 --> 00:31:57,008
I might have been a little
hard on you today too.
514
00:31:57,008 --> 00:31:58,877
I'm sorry for that.
515
00:31:58,877 --> 00:32:01,613
I guess everybody
is a little edgy.
516
00:32:01,613 --> 00:32:03,682
I don't know
what I'm gonna do yet.
517
00:32:03,681 --> 00:32:06,484
James and I've hardly spoke
since I've been here.
518
00:32:06,484 --> 00:32:09,153
Well, there's no hurry.
Just take your time.
519
00:32:09,154 --> 00:32:12,891
You can stay here
as long as you want. Um...
520
00:32:13,625 --> 00:32:17,229
I was wondering, could I feed
little Jimmy here?
521
00:32:17,228 --> 00:32:19,897
Well, it's not as easy
as it looks.
522
00:32:21,132 --> 00:32:24,035
Well, I know how to handle
children. Believe me, I do.
523
00:32:24,035 --> 00:32:26,538
Why don't you just relax,
take it easy.
524
00:32:27,806 --> 00:32:31,176
Why not? I could use
a hot bath before dinner.
525
00:32:33,244 --> 00:32:35,513
Oh, you need anything,
just holler, okay?
526
00:32:35,513 --> 00:32:38,016
- Alright.
- Alright, bye.
527
00:32:38,783 --> 00:32:42,553
[chuckles] Well, how are you
doing, buddy?
528
00:32:42,554 --> 00:32:45,390
- I like these.
- Yeah, you like that, huh?
529
00:32:45,390 --> 00:32:47,459
- Ha-ha-ha.
- I want that car.
530
00:32:47,459 --> 00:32:50,262
You want this one?
Alright, here you go.
531
00:32:50,261 --> 00:32:53,865
You take that one. Okay.
532
00:32:53,865 --> 00:32:58,837
Um... Let's try
this yellow stuff here.
533
00:32:58,837 --> 00:33:01,173
That looks pretty good,
doesn't it?
534
00:33:01,172 --> 00:33:05,843
Uh, this is, you're the church
and this is the staple.
535
00:33:05,844 --> 00:33:09,014
And you open the doors,
and there's all the people...
536
00:33:09,013 --> 00:33:12,884
No, that's not right.
How about-- Here.
537
00:33:12,884 --> 00:33:15,320
This is the airplane
and you're the hangar.
538
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:19,257
And it will come flying in...
[imitates airplane]
539
00:33:21,426 --> 00:33:23,528
Is it good?
540
00:33:23,528 --> 00:33:25,830
Alright, here we go.
541
00:33:28,032 --> 00:33:30,334
You like it,
what do you think? Hm?
542
00:33:30,335 --> 00:33:33,939
- No? No?
- [grunts]
543
00:33:33,938 --> 00:33:36,240
Alright. Well,
I'm gonna give it a try.
544
00:33:37,942 --> 00:33:41,145
Mm. You're absolutely right.
This stuff is pretty putrid.
545
00:33:41,145 --> 00:33:44,615
Let's try
this brown stuff. Mmm.
546
00:33:44,616 --> 00:33:46,918
Alright, ready?
547
00:33:50,955 --> 00:33:54,091
Boy, you are
just one cute kid.
548
00:33:59,130 --> 00:34:01,299
Why is it that I think
I'm gonna have to choose
549
00:34:01,299 --> 00:34:04,202
between you and the company
I've been fighting for
550
00:34:04,202 --> 00:34:06,638
all my life?
551
00:34:06,638 --> 00:34:08,707
Well, let's give
this a try, huh?
552
00:34:08,706 --> 00:34:11,275
You wanna try it? Come on.
553
00:34:11,276 --> 00:34:14,913
Well, alright, you take
the spoon yourself. Go on.
554
00:34:20,718 --> 00:34:25,323
Well, it's...
That's nice. Kind of fun.
555
00:34:25,323 --> 00:34:27,992
That's real nice.
556
00:34:27,992 --> 00:34:31,362
- Poo-poo.
- No, papa.
557
00:34:31,362 --> 00:34:35,933
- No, poo-poo.
- No, son, papa.
558
00:34:35,934 --> 00:34:38,937
- No, poo-poo.
- Here.
559
00:34:43,207 --> 00:34:46,977
Yes, you're right.
Raoul? Theresa?
560
00:34:47,879 --> 00:34:50,281
Debra Lynn, are you there?
561
00:34:50,281 --> 00:34:53,451
- Uh, just stay there.
- [Jimmy crying]
562
00:34:53,451 --> 00:34:55,753
Here. Alright.
563
00:34:59,190 --> 00:35:02,460
If I stood there
listening to him any longer
564
00:35:02,460 --> 00:35:04,562
with that insipid smile...
565
00:35:04,562 --> 00:35:06,664
ugh, my face
would have cracked.
566
00:35:06,664 --> 00:35:08,733
I can't believe
you're taking this crap.
567
00:35:08,733 --> 00:35:11,536
Why don't you just tell
James what you think?
568
00:35:11,536 --> 00:35:15,607
Cliff, I can't get into a
spitting contest with Bambi.
569
00:35:15,607 --> 00:35:17,409
If I go against her,
it's gonna be
570
00:35:17,408 --> 00:35:20,211
versus
The Little Mermaid.
571
00:35:20,211 --> 00:35:22,847
James would take her side
in a second.
572
00:35:24,082 --> 00:35:26,451
And why do you care
what the creep thinks?
573
00:35:26,451 --> 00:35:28,420
I don't know.
574
00:35:28,419 --> 00:35:30,922
Maybe it's 'cause I don't know
what to expect from him.
575
00:35:30,922 --> 00:35:34,225
Ugh. I mean, here we are,
in the middle of this mess,
576
00:35:34,225 --> 00:35:39,230
and he gets the idea that
sleeping with me is not right.
577
00:35:39,230 --> 00:35:42,266
[imitating James] "It's a sense of morality."
578
00:35:42,266 --> 00:35:44,535
The Ewings can't even spell
the word.
579
00:35:44,535 --> 00:35:46,470
I told you
not to fall for a Ewing.
580
00:35:46,471 --> 00:35:50,175
All they care about
are oil wells and offsprings.
581
00:35:50,174 --> 00:35:53,544
But since you have, and since
I'm the residence expert
582
00:35:53,544 --> 00:35:56,113
on the Ewings,
any time you get
583
00:35:56,114 --> 00:35:59,050
into trouble you can't handle,
you come to me.
584
00:36:00,451 --> 00:36:03,621
Thanks, Cliff.
I knew I could count on you.
585
00:36:03,621 --> 00:36:07,925
But I haven't given up yet.
You know me better than that.
586
00:36:12,030 --> 00:36:14,699
Thanks for being there
when I need you.
587
00:36:14,699 --> 00:36:17,702
Thank you. Call me anytime.
588
00:36:24,976 --> 00:36:27,946
[Bobby] April and I knew
each other quite a while
589
00:36:27,945 --> 00:36:30,047
before we started dating.
590
00:36:30,048 --> 00:36:32,651
You know, it's funny
how you can go
591
00:36:32,650 --> 00:36:35,153
from acquaintances,
to friends, and then...
592
00:36:35,153 --> 00:36:38,456
And then one day, you go
from friends to lovers.
593
00:36:38,456 --> 00:36:41,059
That's the way it was with us.
594
00:36:41,059 --> 00:36:43,929
Your son must be very strong.
595
00:36:43,928 --> 00:36:46,898
Losing his mother and April,
he's been through a lot.
596
00:36:46,898 --> 00:36:50,969
Yes, he has. And yes, he is.
597
00:36:51,903 --> 00:36:54,706
Well, I've had
my share of troubles,
598
00:36:54,706 --> 00:36:58,910
but I just can't imagine
going through all you have.
599
00:37:00,645 --> 00:37:05,116
The worst part of it is all
the things that can never be.
600
00:37:06,818 --> 00:37:09,487
One day,
we were married, and...
601
00:37:09,487 --> 00:37:12,123
the next day she was gone.
602
00:37:12,123 --> 00:37:14,459
I never knew April as a wife.
603
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,229
Hey, I'm sorry, I'm supposed
to be cheering you up,
604
00:37:18,229 --> 00:37:21,499
- aren't I?
- That's alright, Bobby.
605
00:37:23,735 --> 00:37:28,206
You know, you and my mother
both had your share of grief.
606
00:37:29,073 --> 00:37:31,976
But she handled hers
by lashing out.
607
00:37:31,976 --> 00:37:34,378
She was blinded by revenge.
608
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:39,317
But I look at you and I see
that that's just all nonsense.
609
00:37:39,317 --> 00:37:43,521
You've handled your pain
remarkably well.
610
00:37:43,521 --> 00:37:45,823
You're not doing so bad, Jory.
611
00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:51,262
To Jory Taylor.
612
00:37:53,731 --> 00:37:56,267
To Bobby... Southfork.
613
00:37:56,267 --> 00:37:58,369
[both laugh]
614
00:38:02,073 --> 00:38:04,842
There you go.
You're gonna love
615
00:38:04,842 --> 00:38:06,911
doing business
with the new Ewing Oil.
616
00:38:06,911 --> 00:38:09,747
Sure can't be any worse
than the old one.
617
00:38:09,747 --> 00:38:12,250
It's a whole lot prettier,
that's for sure.
618
00:38:12,250 --> 00:38:14,886
Yeah. Heh, heh.
619
00:38:16,053 --> 00:38:18,622
That wife of yours
is a honey and a half.
620
00:38:18,623 --> 00:38:20,558
Yeah, we make
a pretty good team.
621
00:38:20,558 --> 00:38:24,295
She gets your attention and I
pick your pockets. Ha-ha-ha!
622
00:38:24,295 --> 00:38:26,564
It's a pleasure
doing business with you.
623
00:38:26,564 --> 00:38:28,866
I hope we all get rich as sin.
624
00:38:32,737 --> 00:38:34,806
You're doing business
with John Kane?
625
00:38:34,806 --> 00:38:36,875
You're moving fast,
I'm telling you,
626
00:38:36,874 --> 00:38:38,743
he and Slade,
they're vultures.
627
00:38:38,743 --> 00:38:41,679
Yeah. If you're looking for
Michelle, she's isn't here.
628
00:38:41,679 --> 00:38:44,348
- No. Hey, Jackie.
- Hi, Cliff.
629
00:38:44,348 --> 00:38:48,018
- You're running the show now.
- Yeah.
630
00:38:48,019 --> 00:38:50,088
Wow. I never figured you
for an oilman.
631
00:38:50,087 --> 00:38:52,489
But then, of course,
I've been wrong before.
632
00:38:52,490 --> 00:38:55,193
Maybe you're gonna make it.
A whole new generation
633
00:38:55,193 --> 00:38:57,829
of Ewings coming along
to whip my butt.
634
00:38:57,829 --> 00:38:59,898
Quite a thought, ain't it?
635
00:38:59,897 --> 00:39:02,133
Yeah. You ought to be used
to that by now.
636
00:39:02,133 --> 00:39:04,802
No, no. Never really get
used to that.
637
00:39:04,802 --> 00:39:08,773
No, but I tell you, I think
I figured out why it happens.
638
00:39:08,773 --> 00:39:12,610
See, I always been out there
trying it on my own.
639
00:39:12,610 --> 00:39:17,381
Trying to whip J.R., just full
of vengeance and hatred.
640
00:39:17,381 --> 00:39:20,351
Never really had a family,
never had any children.
641
00:39:20,351 --> 00:39:25,356
This obsessive desire to get
J.R.. That was my only reason.
642
00:39:25,356 --> 00:39:29,327
But now J.R., he's doing it
for all different reasons.
643
00:39:29,327 --> 00:39:32,697
He's doing it for his family.
For John Ross, for you.
644
00:39:32,697 --> 00:39:35,400
For all the right reasons.
645
00:39:35,399 --> 00:39:38,135
I'll tell you,
a man that's got a son
646
00:39:38,135 --> 00:39:40,738
to fight for,
he's got something.
647
00:39:40,738 --> 00:39:44,508
Yep. Might have changed
my whole life.
648
00:39:44,508 --> 00:39:47,878
Yeah. That's all
real interesting, Cliff,
649
00:39:47,879 --> 00:39:50,348
but, I'm kind of busy.
650
00:39:50,348 --> 00:39:54,185
Oh! Yes, I guess
I just got carried away.
651
00:39:54,185 --> 00:39:57,188
- It's real good to see you.
- Heh, heh.
652
00:39:57,188 --> 00:39:59,791
You don't need to bother
to tell Michelle I was in.
653
00:39:59,790 --> 00:40:02,559
I'll talk to her later. Bye.
654
00:40:05,997 --> 00:40:08,366
[elevator dings]
655
00:40:09,467 --> 00:40:13,471
"And all the king's horses,
and all the king's men
656
00:40:13,471 --> 00:40:16,207
couldn't put Humpty
back together again."
657
00:40:16,207 --> 00:40:18,276
That's not Humpty-Dumpty.
658
00:40:18,276 --> 00:40:20,979
He's not? Well,
maybe this is here.
659
00:40:22,980 --> 00:40:25,850
Hey, Dad. You're still here?
660
00:40:25,850 --> 00:40:28,920
Yeah. His mama wanted me
to put him to nap,
661
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:32,123
but he doesn't seem to be
cooperating too much, huh?
662
00:40:32,123 --> 00:40:34,759
I really need some help
with my English, Dad.
663
00:40:34,759 --> 00:40:36,694
Yeah, I noticed that
664
00:40:36,694 --> 00:40:39,463
from the progress report
your school sent home.
665
00:40:39,463 --> 00:40:41,532
John Ross,
I'm gonna ground you
666
00:40:41,532 --> 00:40:43,901
until your grades
pick up some.
667
00:40:44,635 --> 00:40:47,705
Yeah, bet if it was him,
he wouldn't be grounded.
668
00:40:47,705 --> 00:40:51,776
John Ross, you're a too old
to be jealous of a baby.
669
00:40:51,776 --> 00:40:53,678
You're almost a man now.
670
00:40:53,678 --> 00:40:56,014
It's best you start
acting like one.
671
00:40:56,013 --> 00:40:59,083
Yes, sir. But all these people
672
00:40:59,083 --> 00:41:01,819
around here
are starting to get to me.
673
00:41:01,819 --> 00:41:03,754
I want things back
the old way.
674
00:41:03,754 --> 00:41:06,657
Well, you can't always get
what you want.
675
00:41:06,657 --> 00:41:09,293
Right? Hmm? Ha, ha.
676
00:41:10,127 --> 00:41:12,196
I better hit the books.
677
00:41:12,196 --> 00:41:15,766
That's a good idea.
I'll come see you later.
678
00:41:15,766 --> 00:41:19,169
Well, you want me to do
this again, big fella, huh?
679
00:41:19,170 --> 00:41:21,472
- Yeah.
- [Jimmy] More.
680
00:41:22,907 --> 00:41:25,209
[footsteps approaching]
681
00:41:29,447 --> 00:41:31,749
[Michelle] Debra Lynn, you awake?
682
00:41:34,285 --> 00:41:36,454
Better make sure
you use some sunblock.
683
00:41:36,454 --> 00:41:38,556
Sun down here
is real tough on the skin.
684
00:41:38,556 --> 00:41:42,026
I burn easily,
so I'm always careful.
685
00:41:42,026 --> 00:41:44,161
Where's the baby?
686
00:41:44,161 --> 00:41:46,296
J.R. is putting him
down for a nap.
687
00:41:46,297 --> 00:41:48,933
I think he likes
being a grandfather.
688
00:41:48,933 --> 00:41:51,068
James likes being a father.
689
00:41:51,068 --> 00:41:53,337
He thinks the world
of that boy.
690
00:41:53,337 --> 00:41:56,106
Jimmy's all he's talked about
since you arrived.
691
00:41:57,508 --> 00:41:59,710
Michelle, I know
this has been tough on you.
692
00:41:59,710 --> 00:42:03,948
Oh. Nothing compared to what
you must have gone through.
693
00:42:03,948 --> 00:42:07,985
Having a baby at a young age.
I don't see how you survived.
694
00:42:07,985 --> 00:42:13,324
It wasn't easy, with a lot of
help from my folks, we got by.
695
00:42:15,059 --> 00:42:17,128
Debra Lynn,
I've been thinking,
696
00:42:17,128 --> 00:42:20,698
and please hear me out
before you respond.
697
00:42:20,698 --> 00:42:23,367
Okay.
698
00:42:24,368 --> 00:42:27,538
James really wants little
Jimmy around all the time,
699
00:42:27,538 --> 00:42:30,241
and I really wanna make
James happy.
700
00:42:30,241 --> 00:42:32,844
And I wanna give our marriage
an honest chance.
701
00:42:32,843 --> 00:42:36,680
- Oh, Michelle.
- Please.
702
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:40,350
This family
doesn't just get by.
703
00:42:40,351 --> 00:42:43,855
I mean, we're the people
that everyone looks up to.
704
00:42:43,854 --> 00:42:48,592
Doesn't Jimmy deserve to
become the head of this ranch?
705
00:42:48,592 --> 00:42:51,295
Don't you want him to become
the heir to Ewing Oil?
706
00:42:51,295 --> 00:42:54,865
- What do you want, Michelle?
- Please don't get angry.
707
00:42:54,865 --> 00:42:57,167
I'm not trying to sound cruel.
708
00:42:58,302 --> 00:43:01,071
But I want you
to let us adopt Jimmy.
709
00:43:01,072 --> 00:43:04,142
We can give him
everything you can't.
710
00:43:04,141 --> 00:43:06,410
It only makes sense,
when you think about it.
711
00:43:06,410 --> 00:43:08,679
I'm sorry, Michelle.
712
00:43:08,679 --> 00:43:10,948
You've never had
a child of your own,
713
00:43:10,948 --> 00:43:12,817
or you'd know
there's nothing on Earth
714
00:43:12,817 --> 00:43:15,153
that would get me
to give up my son.
715
00:43:15,152 --> 00:43:18,389
You want a family?
Start you own.
716
00:43:20,157 --> 00:43:22,459
Leave mine alone.
717
00:43:51,122 --> 00:43:53,358
- What are you doing?
- I'm checking
718
00:43:53,357 --> 00:43:55,759
the label on these
chocolate chip cookies here.
719
00:43:55,759 --> 00:43:58,595
- Somebody must have left them.
- Somehow I don't think
720
00:43:58,596 --> 00:44:01,632
these fit
into your prescribed diet.
721
00:44:01,632 --> 00:44:03,734
I'm glad to see
you're taking this seriously.
722
00:44:03,734 --> 00:44:07,304
Listen, I ask my family
for some help, not ridicule.
723
00:44:07,304 --> 00:44:09,873
Last night, John Ross measured
my cocktail with a beaker
724
00:44:09,874 --> 00:44:12,210
from his chemistry set.
Can you imagine that?
725
00:44:12,209 --> 00:44:14,278
Can you imagine me
on a diet like this?
726
00:44:14,278 --> 00:44:16,347
I have to make
some modifications.
727
00:44:16,347 --> 00:44:19,784
Fine, you wanna act
like a jerk? It's your health.
728
00:44:19,783 --> 00:44:22,386
Speaking of jerks, Cliff
Barnes came by the office.
729
00:44:22,386 --> 00:44:24,488
- Yeah? What did he want?
- I'm not sure.
730
00:44:24,488 --> 00:44:27,558
But he's ranting and raving
about legacies and morality,
731
00:44:27,558 --> 00:44:29,627
and how kids, especially sons,
732
00:44:29,627 --> 00:44:31,696
are the most important things
in the world.
733
00:44:31,695 --> 00:44:33,764
- Well, he was right about that.
- Yeah.
734
00:44:33,764 --> 00:44:36,300
- But he was way off the wall.
- You're so smart...
735
00:44:36,300 --> 00:44:37,968
You stand there stuffing
your face with cookies
736
00:44:37,968 --> 00:44:39,169
while your wife
is getting ready
737
00:44:39,170 --> 00:44:40,405
to take your son out of here.
738
00:44:40,404 --> 00:44:42,606
Hey, Jimmy is my concern.
739
00:44:42,606 --> 00:44:44,842
And don't worry, Debra Lynn
isn't going anywhere.
740
00:44:44,842 --> 00:44:47,111
Oh, you're so damn sure
about that, are you?
741
00:44:47,111 --> 00:44:48,713
Yeah, I am.
742
00:44:48,712 --> 00:44:50,447
You already let one child
get away from here,
743
00:44:50,447 --> 00:44:52,582
and by God, you're fixing
to do it again.
744
00:44:52,850 --> 00:44:55,386
- What are you talking about?
- You let Cally walk out
745
00:44:55,386 --> 00:44:58,089
- of here with your child.
- The hell I did.
746
00:44:58,088 --> 00:45:00,591
Well, she's gone, isn't she,
with my grandchild?
747
00:45:00,591 --> 00:45:03,761
- That isn't your grandchild.
- Of course, it is.
748
00:45:03,761 --> 00:45:07,932
It's your baby.
I'm not the father, you are.
749
00:45:07,932 --> 00:45:10,401
Congratulations, Grandpa.
750
00:45:16,974 --> 00:45:18,442
