Hello, baby.
Well, Mama, what are you doing back in Texas?
I came to see you.
You should've come by the ranch first.
Maybe J.R. would've given you some more money and you could've left again.
- I take it you got the test results back. - You're pregnant, Mrs. Ewing.
You think money's the answer to everything.
- It's the answer to you. - I'm not leaving until I see Lucy!
You're wrong. You're leaving before nightfall.
The disease is random.
You could have a child that would come through it unscathed.
Or die before it was a year old.
- Hi. - Hi.
I was surprised when you were up and out of bed before I even got up.
I couldn't really sleep.
I know. I got up at 3, and you were already gone.
I heard the baby crying. I was in with him.
Yeah, I know that too. I stopped by and looked in the nursery.
Why didn't you come in?
Well, I didn't wanna disturb you.
You made such a pretty picture, sitting there holding the baby.
I was just trying to put him back to sleep, Bobby.
- He has a nurse, Pam, and a mother. - You know how Sue Ellen is.
However Sue Ellen is, that's not your baby.
That's not fair!
Honey, fair is you trying to put our baby to sleep, not hers.
We decided to wait.
Wrong. We decided to have a baby. You decided to wait.
And the worst part about it is, Pam, I don't know why.
Now, I see you with baby John. I know you love children.
There's got to be a reason you don't want one of our own.
- It's not that I don't want one. - Then what is it?
Morning, Bobby.
- Morning, Pam. - Morning, Jock.
Slow down, Jock. You're just gobbling your food.
I didn't know you was gonna dilly-dally around.
We got a lot of places to go, Miss Ellie.
- The stores don't open until 10. - I know that.
At the rate you're going, we won't get to Dallas before noon.
I don't think it matters. There can't be anything left in Dallas to buy the baby.
Nothing to buy? Why, I haven't even started yet.
You're gonna spoil him rotten.
I did the same thing for Bobby, he turned out all right.
Ain't that right, Pam?
Just terrific.
I think I'll be going to work.
- Just like that? - Well, I'm gonna change first.
- Bye-bye. - We'll see you later.
Morning.
- Bobby, eaten yet? - No, Daddy, I'm not hungry.
Yeah. That's right.
You think we could... Harry, listen.
We'll do it this way.
All right?
I don't see why not.
I'll meet you there at 12:30. Okay.
Bye-bye.
Hello, is Dr. Holliston in please? This is Pamela Ewing.
Dr. Holliston? Pamela Ewing.
You gave my father his physical.
I'm sorry, I know this must be an imposition...
...but I was wondering, could you give me an examination this morning?
No, no, I feel fine, I...
There's just some things I'd really like to be sure about.
What time?
Okay, I'll be there. Thank you, doctor.
Hi, Mama.
- Daddy in the house? - No, why?
I just wanna check some figures on the herd.
He went into Dallas. He and J.R. are having a meeting.
I bet J.R.'s tickled about that, isn't he?
Well, the fact is, he didn't seem overjoyed.
He's still having trouble with the Office of Land Management.
Your daddy's trying to help.
My brother-in-law, the wonderful Cliff Barnes.
What a great family I married into, huh, Mama?
I'm sure Pamela must think the same thing about us Ewings, occasionally.
Frankly, I'm not too sure what Pamela thinks anymore.
Maybe it's because she's a Barnes.
Or maybe it's just because she's a woman, I don't know.
Is that a touch of male chauvinism creeping in?
No, more like male confusion.
Mama, how did you and Daddy do it all these years?
I mean, you don't fight. You barely disagree about most things.
About most things, we don't.
But if you think we don't fight...
...you haven't been around when it was happening.
As much as I love your Daddy...
...we could find something to fight about every day if we wanted to.
You Ewings aren't the easiest men in the world to live with.
Us Ewings?
Mama, after all these years, don't you think you're a Ewing?
Mostly, but there's still part of me that's Ellie Southworth.
Always will be.
Just as there's a part of Pam that will always be a Barnes.
I guess that's true enough.
But it don't make it any easier.
Bobby, if you have something to say about Pamela, then say it.
If not, stop hinting around.
You are the most direct person I've ever met.
No, I don't have anything to say...
...but I guess I was just unfair to her this morning, that's all.
Then apologize.
I don't think I was that unfair.
It's just a great big part of our life that we can't agree on.
And I don't know why.
That's not your problem, is it?
It's mine and Pam's.
And we'll work it out.
I just wanted to talk to you.
Ever since I was a little kid, I could only talk to two people:
You and Gary.
Well, you're still a little boy to me.
As hard as it may be for you to believe, so is J.R.
- Now, scoot. I've got things to do. - Yes, ma'am.
Lucy.
Hello, baby.
Well, Mama, what are you doing back in Texas?
I came to see you.
- Did you, Mama? - Of course.
Well, you should've come by the ranch first.
Maybe J.R. would've given you some more money and you could've left again.
All the lab results aren't in as yet, but from these preliminary reports...
...it appears there are no symptoms of neurofibromatosis.
Then maybe I don't have the disease?
No, it simply means there are no symptoms.
But that's not unusual. Look how late in life your father's symptoms surfaced.
But even if they should show up later...
...it's unlikely at your age that they would prove to be fatal.
Well, I don't understand. If I don't have any symptoms...
...how could I transmit the disease to my children?
I understood you to say you didn't have any children.
I don't, but what if I did?
It's an inherited genetic disease, Mrs. Ewing.
It's passed from one generation to the next.
Even though it's not always fatal in children...
...as in your case, your brother's case, you both survived...
...you both carry the strain.
I thought I made that clear to you when I examined your father.
Yes, you did, I...
I just hoped that if I didn't carry it...
...that if I had a child...
Mrs. Ewing, I wish I could give you some hope that you could have children safely.
The disease is random.
You could have a child that would come through it unscathed.
Or die before it was a year old.
Yes. I'm sorry.
Other diseases have been cured.
One day, we'll cure this one.
But not in time for me to have a baby.
I am sorry.
That's not your fault, is it?
It's no one's fault, Mrs. Ewing.
It's just something the Barnes family carries.
Just something the Barnes family carries.
You're damn right we got reasons to worry.
It seems to me that every other oil man in this state...
...drills anywhere that even smells like oil.
We can't drill a foot into the ground and the OLM puts a stop to it.
You're not the only ones, Jock. He's stopped a lot of other drilling too.
Yeah, but always in and around where Ewing has oil leases.
You'll pardon my saying so, but Barnes is no fool.
He can't be too obvious about putting the screws to Ewing Oil.
He's stopping other drilling to make it look good.
Harve, you've been my lawyer since near day one.
Do you mean to sit there and tell me there's nothing we can do to stop him?
Can't get an injunction? Restraining order or something?
We've tried, Jock, but he's got every ecological group in the state behind him.
And they think he's doing a great job.
Aside from which, so far, the courts have agreed...
...that he has not overstepped the bounds of his authority.
Now we're back to the same old bone.
What in the hell do we do about Cliff Barnes?
He can't be bribed?
Alan, I do not particularly enjoy hearing that kind of question...
...coming from a member of my legal firm.
Oh, don't be so damned stuffy, Harve.
- That's a good question. - Yeah, but the answer is no.
There's not enough money in Texas to get him off our backs, Dad.
Well, there must be something he wants.
Well, I'll tell you what he wants.
He wants to see us Ewings down-and-out...
...just like that no-good drunken daddy of his.
There ain't no way we're gonna drag him out of the OLM.
But before the OLM, he did run for office.
Yes, and he quit before the election.
After that, he couldn't get two cents' worth of support from the whole state.
He surely did wanna get elected.
Barnes just loves to be the people's choice.
He also loves all the power that goes with a big government office.
How about Barnes for president?
I imagine he'd leave the OLM for that.
- I'll bet he would. - All that talk don't help a bit.
No matter how good it sounds...
...there's not a man in the state fool enough to back Cliff Barnes for office.
Not even dogcatcher.
Yeah, you're right, Dad.
Who'd even dream of backing old Cliff Barnes for public office?
Hi. You still here, Mama?
I thought you'd have gotten your money and gone by now.
Lucy, I wrote to you and I explained that I did not take any money from J.R.
- Why should I believe that? - Because it's true.
But I know that I have got a lot more explaining to do to you.
Don't bother. It really doesn't matter to me.
- Honey, I know how you must feel. - Oh, no, you don't.
You don't know anything about me.
I know that I gave birth to you.
And that I love you very much.
You love me like you love my daddy?
You ran off and left him too.
No, I never did. We just never had a chance.
We had a chance, all right.
We were all together at the ranch. We could've made it.
Except it got too rough for you two, so you both ran off.
That's funny.
It was too rough for you, but it was all right to leave me there.
Well, that was your home, and you were brought up there.
I knew that Miss Ellie would take care of you.
- They love you. - Oh, yeah.
According to you, everybody loves me.
Why don't I feel like they do?
Why do I feel like I don't belong to anybody?
Darling, listen, I know it's hard for you to understand...
...but you do belong to your daddy and me.
I'll tell you something, lady.
I hurt sometimes, but I can handle that.
What I can't handle is you coming back again...
...and making me think I really do have a mama.
And then one day, finding out you're gone again.
So don't bother, lady.
Don't even try.
My baby...
Mrs. Reeves.
There, there, there, young fellow.
We're gonna get you comfy in just a minute.
Would you like to change him, Mrs. Ewing?
That's what I'm paying you for.
- Hello. - Afternoon, Bobby.
- Anything for me? - Yes.
Well, nothing that looks important.
Thank you.
- Is my daddy in the office? - No, sir.
He and J.R. went out to lunch with the others.
I really don't know when they'll be back.
Now, if that were my honeymoon...
...I wouldn't settle for anything less than Tahiti.
That's the problem. It's either Tahiti or living room furniture.
Take Tahiti. The first year, you won't even know if you have furniture.
Ewing Oil.
I believe he's in a meeting right now. May I ask who's calling?
Can I say what it's in reference to?
One moment, please. There's a lady on the line.
She won't give me her name, just that it has to do with Lucy.
Said it's very important.
- I'll take it in my office. - Okay. Line three.
Thank you.
Bobby Ewing.
Bobby? This is Valene Ewing.
Val? Well, how are you?
- Where are you? - In Dallas.
I'm sorry, but I was afraid to give my name in case J.R. was there.
Yeah, well, I can understand that. How's Gary? Where is he?
Bobby, I don't wanna go into too much over the phone, but I need to see you.
But not at your office or Southfork.
Just name the time and place.
Is tomorrow all right?
I'm working from 4 to midnight in a café near here...
...and I don't wanna be late. - Tomorrow's fine. Just tell me where.
You know the Kennedy memorial by the old courthouse?
- Sure. - About 10:00 tomorrow morning?
- I'll be there. - Thank you, Bobby.
- Bye-bye. - Bye.
- Pam? - Yes?
Oh, there you are. You had me worried.
Why?
Liz Craig called from the store an hour ago and said she hadn't seen you all day.
She said it's important for you to call a Mr. Holliston at this number.
Oh, well, thank you. I'm sorry.
I didn't feel like working so I just drove around all day.
You should call Liz and tell her you're here, after you talk to Mr. Holliston.
I will. Thank you.
Doctor's office.
Hello, this is Pamela Ewing. Is Dr. Holliston in, please?
One moment, please.
- Mrs. Ewing? - Yes.
I hope you didn't mind my saying Mr. Holliston instead of doctor.
I didn't know if you'd spoken to anyone about your visit.
I didn't want to risk opening a discussion.
Thank you. That was very thoughtful.
I take it you got the test results back.
No, not all of them as yet.
But what we do have back shows that there might be a problem.
- With the disease? - Yes, in a way.
Your blood samples and urinalysis show one thing for sure.
You're pregnant, Mrs. Ewing.
- Hi. - Hi, Bobby.
- Have you seen Pam? - I think she's resting.
She didn't seem to feel well this afternoon.
- What's the matter with her? - Just a headache, she said.
- I'll go check on her. - Yeah, see.
Honey, are you all right?
Yeah, I'm just tired.
Guess who I talked to today.
- Valene. - Valene?
Remember Lucy's mother, Valene? She's back in Dallas.
I'm gonna go see her tomorrow. Maybe you'd like to come along.
She'd love to see you.
I'd love to, Bobby, but I'm gonna be tied up for the whole day.
Honey, look, I'm sorry about this morning.
I shouldn't have gotten upset with you like that.
Well, I'm sorry I gave you reason to.
But you didn't really.
And I won't put any more pressure on you about having a baby.
It's just when I see you with little John like that, I...
Well, I can't help wishing he was ours, that's all.
Don't you think I know how much our having a baby would mean to you?
Sometimes that's exactly what I think.
Other times, I don't know.
But I would rather never have a baby, than have it cause trouble between us.
Can I tell you something, and then we won't talk about it again?
Okay.
More than anything in the world, I would love to have our child.
And I'd want it to be a little boy who grew up to be just like you.
But...?
Pam, whatever's the matter...
...whatever your reasons are...
...you're gonna have to tell me sometime.
Sometime soon.
I know.
Say, you better start getting dressed, honey. Mama's going to be here soon.
Is that the reason for your cheerful mood, J.R.?
That my mama's coming with her new beau...
...or that she's bringing my baby sister with her?
Sue Ellen, when you stopped drinking...
...I had hoped that your outlook on life would change.
But I guess that's just too much for anybody to hope for.
There was a time when that would've hurt me, J.R., but not anymore.
I don't give a damn what you do.
Then what, may I ask, is keeping you here at Southfork, in my bedroom?
What is keeping me here is seeing your face when your daddy tells you...
...how proud he is of little John and how much he looks like you.
And all the time you're wondering if he really looks like you or Cliff Barnes.
Here, why don't you finish this for me, Sue Ellen?
Maybe you ought to start drinking again.
At least when you were drunk you didn't talk so much.
- Morning, ladies. - Good morning, J.R.
- Alan Beam here yet? - Yes, sir, he's waiting in your office.
- All right. Hold all calls until he leaves. - Yes, sir.
- Alan. - Hi, J.R.
- You get that information I called about? - Yes, sir.
When they established the Office of Land Management...
...they were careful about the possibility of any conflict of interest.
- Which means? - That whoever's the head of the OLM...
...is required to resign his position before he can announce candidacy for office.
So he couldn't get elected, say, to Congress and then resign?
No, it's very clearly spelled out.
I see. So Cliff Barnes would have to be fairly sure...
...he was gonna win that election before he resigned, wouldn't he?
- Oh, yes, sir. He's not a stupid man. - No, no, but he's a hungry one.
If it were possible to convince him that he had enough support to win...
And enough financing to conduct a large-scale campaign.
It'd be worth it to him.
Political campaigns cost a great deal of money.
Well, getting Cliff Barnes out of the OLM is worth millions to me.
Sometimes you have to spend some to make some.
Course, you'd need someone to channel the money to the right places.
You certainly wouldn't want there to be any connection to Ewing Oil.
I don't suppose you have anybody in mind for that job, do you?
Beyond me? Not a soul.
Tell you what. You scout around, see if you can find any influential people...
...that might be persuaded to start the ball rolling for him.
Yes, sir. One thing though.
Have you considered the consequences of Cliff Barnes really getting elected?
You know, that is a good question, Alan.
It reassures me to see that you still have some things to learn.
Such as?
Once Cliff Barnes resigns, it wouldn't surprise me at all...
...to see all that money supporting his campaign just suddenly disappear.
I'm glad it's Cliff Barnes you're after and not me.
That'd be a good thing for you to remember, Alan.
Real good.
How can you be certain? There hasn 't even been enough time.
I'm afraid there's no mistake, Mrs. Ewing.
You are pregnant.
You understand we can determine pregnancy now...
...between 14 and 20 days after conception.
If you hadn't come in for these tests...
...you wouldn't have realized it for some time.
What are the baby's chances?
I'm afraid I don't have an answer for that.
But I've heard of tests you can run on the fetus.
Tests to determine whether or not the baby will be healthy.
Yes, there are such tests.
And ordinarily, a determination could be reached.
Ordinarily?
Why not for me?
In a baby with neurofibromatosis...
...no signs, none...
...will show up for at least four to six months after the baby's born.
What am I supposed to do?
Carry a baby for nine months and then sit back and watch it die?
You know I can't answer that, Mrs. Ewing.
That's between you and your husband.
No. I don't want him to know about this.
Well, don't you think he should?
- Would it help the baby? - It might help you.
Causing Bobby pain won't help me.
If I decide to do something about this...
...I want it over and done with before he knows.
Mrs. Ewing...
...before you make any decision, please think very carefully about this.
Isn't there someone you could talk to, confide in?
Yes, there's someone.
Probably the only person who'll know just how I feel.
I'm here. So tell me what's so important. Why we have to meet in the street.
I couldn't talk in your office and I didn't wanna discuss it in front of Daddy.
I'm listening.
I'm pregnant.
You're pregnant?
Oh, my God.
So how far along are you? Is there any chance the baby can be born with...?
They can't tell. It's just like little John. Maybe it'll be all right, and...
Listen, does Bobby know?
- No, and he's not going to. - No, wait a minute.
- You gotta tell Bobby. - Not if I have an abortion first.
An abortion?
You just don't throw that word around lightly.
Is that what you think I'm doing?
Yeah, I think you're looking for the easy way out.
Do you? Well, what would you have told Sue Ellen...
...if you'd known your son might die before he was a year old?
I don't know.
Wouldn't it be better for him if he'd never been born at all?
No, because I don't know for sure that he's sick.
And you don't know for sure but what you won't have a healthy baby.
Can you take that chance?
I don't know.
I don't know why I thought you could help me.
I'm sorry, I just needed somebody to talk to...
...just to hear it all out loud.
Pam, look, I'd help you if I could.
You got to tell Bobby.
It's not just my baby.
He knows you're the father of Sue Ellen's child.
I'll have to tell him about the disease, and he'll know little John might die.
I won't do that to Bobby.
I just won't.
Pam...
Thank you for meeting me, Bobby.
- You knew I would. - Yeah.
You look great, Val, how you been?
Fine. Just fine.
- Have you been in touch with Lucy? - Yeah.
- That's why I wanted to talk to you. - Trouble, huh?
Yeah.
I followed her to school yesterday.
I tried to talk to her.
She don't wanna have nothing to do with me, Bobby.
She was hurt bad, Val. You got to expect that.
Yeah, I did, in a way, but not like she was.
So spiteful.
Of course, I guess there's no reason that she should feel any different.
Like she said...
...I never was a mama to her.
Maybe I shouldn't have come back.
Why did you come back?
What's different now than before?
Some things.
- I've been in touch with Gary. - You have?
Well, how's he doing? Where is he?
Well, he's been doing pretty good.
Doesn't drink at all.
He's been working out on the West Coast.
Tells me he's even been putting a little money aside.
See, that's what I wanted to tell Lucy.
Not that I could promise anything...
...but just that me and Gary have been talking, and...
I don't know, maybe we'll try to see each other again soon.
See if we can work something out.
Don't you think it's a bit early to get her hopes up, Val?
I just wanna talk to her, Bobby.
I thought maybe you could help, that's all.
Val, I don't know if I should help.
She was hurt so bad last time. And a couple of times since then.
She's getting herself together now, Val. She's happy.
Seeing you again, her thinking that you might all be one big happy family...
Val, what if it doesn't work again this time?
I don't know what she might do.
I don't know if she can take getting her hopes up again and then losing you.
Yeah, I understand, Bobby.
Whatever happened before, I mean, the last thing that I wanted was to hurt her.
I don't want to make her no promises.
There's only two things in this world that I love.
Your brother Gary...
...and my little girl.
And I don't believe that I can stand living without us at least being friends.
Please, Bobby.
Okay.
We'll see her after school. Now, where can I find you?
I'm at the Big Sky Motel on Lemmon over by Love Field.
Okay.
And, Bobby, don't say anything at all about me being here.
The last thing that I want is for J.R. Ewing to know...
...that I'm within 500 miles of Dallas.
There she is.
Why don't you just sort of ask her to come on over here and talk?
I mean, she might not be too happy, me just showing up with her friends there.
Okay.
Lucy?
What are you doing here? You see us? Pretty terrific, huh?
Yes, you look fine, you look fine. Honey, I've got Valene with me.
She wants to talk to you, and I think you ought to listen.
So she asked you to come and get me.
Tell her she could've saved you the trouble.
Lucy, at least talk to her.
Look, if you wanna believe her, fine, you talk to her.
Ready, let's do it one more time.
What'd I tell you, J.R.? That's quite a group of girls out there, isn't it?
Yeah.
Look at your little niece. Doesn't that make you proud?
I'm sorry, Val.
I'll talk to her again when I get home.
Well, I'm glad you asked me by today, Max.
I wouldn't have missed this for the world.
- Hi. - Is it still raining?
No, it stopped a while ago.
Want some coffee?
Yeah.
How was your day?
- Not so good. How was yours? - A little slow.
I used to have Sue Ellen to talk to, but she still stays pretty close to her room.
I'm sure she'll be feeling better soon.
I hope so.
If I didn't have little John to play with, I don't know what I'd do.
It's easy to get attached to him, isn't it?
Too attached, I'm afraid.
It's been a long time since we've had a baby around here.
Did you miss having a baby around before little John was born?
Well, not as much as Jock did.
I had three.
That's enough to last for a while.
Did you ever think what it would have been like if you hadn't had any children?
Well, there were some times when I thought it would be a blessing.
Well, what about your life, your marriage to Jock?
Wouldn't it have been different without them?
I'm sure it would've been different.
I'm not saying better or worse, but certainly different.
I didn't marry Jock just to have children.
That was sort of a byproduct of our love for each other.
We would've missed a great deal of joy without them.
And a great deal of sorrow too.
But Jock and I, we've always loved each other.
Always been pretty honest with each other.
With or without children, I think we would have had a good life together.
Listen to me. You ask a simple question, and I give you the story of my life.
No. No, I want to hear.
It's really important to me that I know.
Why, Pam?
- Why is it so important? - Because of Bobby.
Children are so important to Bobby.
I don't know if our marriage could survive without them.
And I think Bobby's doing a fine job with the ranch...
...but he could be a big help down in Austin.
- I think you better fill me in on that, J.R. - Yes, sir, I will.
The more heat we put on Barnes down at that end...
...the more likely he is to jump at something that looks good.
You talking about him running for office again?
You'd be surprised the number of people...
...who think he'd make a good congressman.
And I don't think it's a bad idea to jump on that bandwagon.
I think we'll be worse off with him in Congress than we are now.
Big difference between running and getting elected.
Now, all I'm saying, Dad, is I think we'd be better off...
...with Bobby down in Austin, with me maneuvering Barnes around up here.
Well, maybe so.
Bobby, J.R. thinks you ought to run down to Austin and call in some markers.
What sort of markers, Dad?
Any kind that'll set a barn fire under the OLM.
They got us over a barrel, Bob. And I mean a barrel of oil.
We tried that last time. It didn't work.
Barnes has stepped on a lot of toes since then.
He might be willing to listen.
When do you think I should go down there?
Well, there's no sense in waiting past tomorrow morning.
I got things to do tomorrow.
Bobby, I think in this case J.R.'s right. I feel you ought to go.
If you want me to, I will. But not tomorrow.
You raised a stubborn boy.
He said he'd help us. Let it go at that.
Yes, sir. Yes, sir, I will.
I got some things to do tomorrow myself.
I waited up for you last night till almost 2.
I had a date.
I thought you were trying to avoid me, leaving so early in the morning.
- I've got an early cheerleading practice. - At 6:00?
Lucy...
...you're gonna have to talk to Valene sometime.
I've done all the talking I'm gonna do.
You are a stubborn little cuss, you know that?
So are you.
Yeah, but the difference is I'm willing to listen to reason.
Look, she ran without even saying goodbye.
Honey, I've said everything to her that you can say to me now.
No matter what she's done in the past, hon, she came back.
And she came back because she loves you.
There's that magic word again, "love."
All right. All right, forget love. You owe her something.
Now, she's your mama, don't you ever forget that.
You think it's easy for her to come back like this?
She knows exactly the way you feel about her.
She doesn't want to hurt you, Lucy.
I swear. She just wants to talk to you.
Okay.
All right. Let's go.
- Now? - No better time.
No, I want some time to think about it first.
Besides, I really do have an early practice.
I'll go with you this afternoon, I promise.
All right. Before 4. That's when she goes to work.
Okay, how about 3:00 at the practice field?
I'll be there. I'll call Valene, tell her we're coming.
Okay.
Hello, Valene.
I never thought I'd see you back here again.
How did you find me?
Oh, it wasn't too hard.
Once I heard you were back in town...
...I just had some of my friends check out some of the cheaper motels.
Figured you'd be living in the style you've become accustomed to.
- And, sure enough, here you are. - Get the hell out of here.
Now, what do I have to do to get you to stay away from us?
I warned you not to come back to Dallas.
I just wanna see Lucy.
I'll bet you do. I'll bet you I know why too.
No, you would never understand why. Not in a million years.
Well, I do understand that you and that drunken brother of mine...
...would do just about anything to get to live in Southfork again.
Get a slice of the pie, before it's too late.
You think money's the answer to everything, don't you?
I think it's an answer to you. And you're using Lucy to get at it.
I don't care what you think, because you're wrong.
And I'm not leaving here until I do see Lucy!
No, you're wrong. You're leaving here before nightfall.
Get out of here. I swear I'll call the police if you don't.
Well, I like your sense of humor.
Now, go on, pack your little bags...
...and you'll be out of here in about five minutes.
All right.
And if I don't?
If you don't, I'll have a friend of mine escort you out of town and keep you out.
- Permanently. - It won't work anymore, J.R.
I have run from you for the last time.
There's nothing left for you to do to me.
I've got nothing left to lose.
Except Lucy, and I'm not gonna lose her again!
You've already lost her. You just don't know it.
I don't think so, J.R.
I was doing it for you, Lucy.
I couldn't stand to see her hurt you again.
Thank you for standing up to him, Mama.
Lucy, you just stay and talk to your mama as long as you want.
When you're done, you can bring my car home.
J.R. will be glad to take me home.
We have a lot of things to talk about, don't we, J.R.?
I'm sorry, Mama, for all the things I said to you this morning.
Oh, no, baby, you were right.
I never was a good mama to you.
But not because I didn't wanna be.
I always loved you.
I know.
My life's kind of mixed up right now.
Now, I can't promise that it's gonna get any better...
...but if we could just start off by being friends, by just...
...liking each other.
I mean, it's a place to start.
I love you, Mama.
