Dallas (1978–1991): Season 1, Episode 1 - Digger's Daughter - full transcript

YOUR FOLKS ARE GONNA
THROW ME RIGHT OFF THAT RANCH.

RELAX, HONEY.
YOU'RE MY WIFE NOW.

YOU'RE FAMILY. YOU ARE A EWING.

HOW IN HELL DID SHE
END UP MARRYING HIM?

I BROUGHT HER TO A
COUPLE OF BARBECUES HERE.

I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE
GETTING ON THAT WELL.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW
ABOUT YOU, RAY,

BUT I'M NOT STANDING
STILL FOR THIS.

WE SHOULD HAVE GOT
HITCHED A LONG TIME AGO.

MAYBE IT'S NOT TOO LATE.

OH, I DON'T KNOW.



IT STOPS RIGHT NOW,
J.R. PAMELA'S MY WIFE,

AND YOU'RE GONNA
TREAT HER WITH RESPECT.

NOW, LISTEN HERE,
LITTLE BROTHER...

IT WAS A DUMB, STUPID TRICK!

OH, BOBBY! BOBBY!

CAPTIONING MADE
POSSIBLE BY WARNER BROS.

Pam: BOBBY JAMES EWING!

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.

Bobby: WELL, NOW, THIS IS
A FINE STATE OF AFFAIRS.

WE'RE MARRIED
LESS THAN 24 HOURS,

AND MY NEW BRIDE
DOUBTS MY VERACITY.

I DO IF YOU SAY
YOU'RE NOT NERVOUS.

WELL, I'M NOT NERVOUS.

EXCEPT FOR MAYBE ONE
OR 2 LITTLE BUTTERFLIES



SOMEWHERE.

MMM. YOUR FOLKS
ARE GONNA THROW ME

RIGHT OFF THAT RANCH.

RELAX, HONEY.
YOU'RE MY WIFE NOW.

YOU'RE FAMILY. YOU ARE A EWING,

AND ONCE THAT SINKS IN,

THEY'RE GONNA
LOVE YOU LIKE I DO.

BEFORE IT SINKS IN
IS WHAT WORRIES ME.

RELAX, SWEETHEART.
EVERYTHING'S GONNA BE FINE.

IF YOU SAY SO, BOBBY.

I SAY SO.

GONNA BE A COLD DAY TODAY, EH?

NOT FOR EVERYBODY.

AHEM.

YOU WANT TO FILL
IT UP WITH UNLEADED

AND CHECK UNDER THE HOOD FOR ME,

AND THEN PULL IT
OVER TO THE SIDE?

WE'RE GONNA HAVE SOME BREAKFAST.

OH, YEAH.

I APPRECIATE IT.
COME ON, SWEETIE.

YOU WORK FOR JOCK
EWING PERSONALLY

OR EWING OIL?

EWING OIL COMPANY.

HOW LONG DID YOU WORK
FOR EWING OIL, MR. BRADLEY?

OH, ABOUT 5 YEARS,
SENATOR BARNES.

NO, I'M NOT A SENATOR.

THE GENTLEMEN ON MY LEFT
AND RIGHT ARE SENATORS.

I'M JUST THE LEGAL COUNSEL.

I'M A COUNSEL FOR
THIS COMMITTEE.

Bradley: I GOTCHA.

Barnes: UM... DID YOU CARRY...

J.R., YOU WANT ME TO
OPEN THE DRAPES OR NOT?

DAYLIGHT WILL MAKE
A GLARE ON THE TV.

GO AHEAD. OPEN THEM UP.

MAYBE THE GLARE'LL
BLIND THAT JACKASS.

Bradley: I TOLD YOU
MY JOB WAS COURIER,

NOT OPENER.

THOSE ENVELOPES WERE SEALED.

Barnes: DID YOU EVER
HAVE ANY REASON TO THINK

THAT THERE WAS MONEY
IN THOSE ENVELOPES?

Bradley: I NEVER HAD
ANY REASON TO THINK

ABOUT ANYTHING,
EXCEPT MAYBE TRAFFIC.

WERE YOU EVER TOLD TO BE
CAREFUL WITH THE ENVELOPES?

I WASN'T HIRED TO BE CARELESS,

SO NO ONE TOLD ME...

HAD TO TELL ME ABOUT IT.

SEEMS LIKE OLD PHIL'S

HANDLING CLIFF BARNES JUST FINE.

HMM.

OLD PHIL WILL BE SPILLING
HIS GUTS BY NOONTIME.

I HOPE THE OLD MAN
AIN'T WATCHING THIS.

JOHN EWING JR.'s OFFICE.

GOOD. HOW ABOUT YOURSELF?

FINE. YES, HE'S RIGHT HERE.

IT SEEMS HE IS WATCHING.

HELLO, DADDY.

Jock: YOU WATCHING THESE THINGS?

YES, SIR.

I SEE A COUPLE OF FAMILIAR
FACES SITTING THERE.

THEM OL' BOYS ARE
SUPPOSED TO BE ON OUR SIDE.

WHY IN THE HELL AIN'T
THEY SAYING ANYTHING?

I DON'T KNOW.

Jock: WHERE'S BOBBY?

I DON'T KNOW. HE'S IN
NEW ORLEANS SOMEPLACE.

JOHN, GET HIM BACK AND
SEND HIM DOWN TO AUSTIN.

TELL HIM TO SPREAD
AROUND A FEW Bs

AND COLLECT SOME OF
OUR MARKERS, YOU HEAR?

YES, SIR.

Mr. Bradley: I DON'T KNOW.

Mr. Barnes: TO PAY PEARL?

Mr. Bradley: NOW, LOOK,
YOU'RE ONTO SOMETHING

THAT I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT.

OW!

THAT'S FOR STICKING YOUR NOSE

WHERE IT DON'T BELONG.

MOST MEN KEEP WORK
IN THEIR BRIEFCASES.

THIS IS WORK, HONEY. I TOLD YOU:

I'M EWING OIL'S
GOODWILL AMBASSADOR.

YOU GOT A WHOLE SATCHEL
FULL OF GOODWILL THERE.

YEAH. DADDY CALLS THEM Bs.

BOOZE, BROADS, AND BOOTY.

THAT'S WHAT KEEPS
THE INDEPENDENT OILMEN

INDEPENDENT.

I THOUGHT YOU HAD A HAND IN
RUNNING THE FAMILY BUSINESS.

WELL, I DO, HONEY.

I GOT A HAND IN KEEPING
THE BUSINESS RUNNING.

SAME THING.

NO, IT'S NOT.

PAMMY, I LIKE MY JOB.

IT'S PEOPLE. IT'S A GOOD TIME.

AND WOMEN.

AH.

NOW, JUST BECAUSE
I GOT WHAT I WANT

DON'T MEAN I CAN'T HELP
SOME OF THE OL' BOYS

GET A LITTLE OF WHAT

THEY CAN'T GET ON
THEIR OWN, DOES IT?

ESPECIALLY IF THE GOOD OL' BOYS

DO A TURN FOR YOU
IN OIL NOW AND THEN?

WELL, SEE THERE.
YOU'RE NOT SO DUMB.

RAY?

RAY?

YES, SIR?

THAT YOU, RAY?

YEAH.

YEAH. BE RIGHT DOWN.

MORNING.

MORNING. DID YOU TAKE

MY GRANDDAUGHTER
TO SCHOOL TODAY?

NO, SIR. I HAVEN'T SEEN HER.

WELL, MAYBE ONE OF
THE BOYS TOOK HER.

YEAH.

YOU KNOW WHAT? UH...

I WANT YOU TO DO
SOMETHING FOR ME.

SIR.

I WANT YOU TO MAKE SURE

THAT LUCY GETS TO
SCHOOL EVERY DAY.

WE'VE BEEN GETTING LETTERS

SAYING SHE MISSES
MORE THAN SHE GOES,

AND SHE AIN'T EVER
GONNA GRADUATE THAT WAY.

SURE THING. I'LL
TAKE CARE OF IT.

I'M COUNTING ON YOU, BOY.

UH, RAY... YEAH?

AHEM!

YOU AND THAT, UH,
FINE-LOOKING BARNES GIRL

ON OR OFF THESE DAYS?

MOSTLY OFF, SIR.

WELL, TOO BAD.

THOUGHT MAYBE YOU
MIGHT TALK TO HER,

GET HER TO CALL OFF HER BROTHER.

YEAH? WHAT'S OL' CLIFF
BARNES UP TO NOW?

HE'S TURNING US EWINGS UP ON TV.

WELL, AHEM, YOU
KNOW HOW IT IS WITH US.

SOON AS I START
SEEING HER AGAIN,

MAYBE I CAN HELP
YOU OUT A LITTLE.

SURE. GIVE IT A TRY.

TRYING'S THE, UH, FUN
PART OF IT, ANYWAY.

HEH. YEAH.

HA HA! SEE YOU.

HAVE A GOOD DAY, SIR.

DAMN. YOU KNOW
HOW CLOSE THAT WAS?

IT WEREN'T CLOSE AT ALL.

HE'D NEVER COME UP HERE.

WELL, I TELL YOU, IF
HE KNEW, HE'D KILL ME.

WELL, I AIN'T GONNA TELL HIM.

HEY, WHO'S NUMBER
ONE, RAY, HER OR ME?

COME ON, LUCY.

SHE'S PROBABLY REAL
DIFFERENT, RIGHT?

LOOK, UH, I GOTTA GO.

DO YOU EVER CALL
HER LUCY BY MISTAKE?

NO.

THAT'D BE FUNNY.

CALL ME HER NAME.

NO.

DO IT.

CALL ME HER NAME.

PAM.

AGAIN.

PAMELA.

PAMELA.

BUT WHY, PAM, HONEY?

BECAUSE YOU COULD BE IMPORTANT.

WHAT AM I NOW, A BOWL OF CHILI?

OH, BOBBY, YOU'RE THE
MOST IMPORTANT THING

TO ME IN THE WORLD.
YOU KNOW THAT.

BUT YOU COULD BE
IMPORTANT TO MORE THAN ME.

YOU'RE THE SON OF A
BIG, POWERFUL OIL FAMILY.

YOU KNOW, IF YOU WANT TO MAKE

A GOOD IMPRESSION ON MAMA,

YOU'D BEST REMEMBER
HER SIDE OF THE FAMILY, TOO.

OH, THAT'S RIGHT.

OIL AND CATTLE.

AND WITH YOUR DADDY RETIRED,

I BET THEY COULD USE ANOTHER MAN

TO HELP RUN THE BUSINESS.

J.R.'s GOT THE BRAINS.

OH, SO DO YOU!

YOU'VE BEEN WHOOPING IT
UP FOR SO MANY YEARS, BOBBY,

YOU HAVEN'T SHUT UP
LONG ENOUGH TO HEAR

HOW GOOD YOUR BRAIN TICKS.

OK.

OK WHAT?

OK, I'LL TELL DADDY
AND J.R. TONIGHT.

MIGHT AS WELL SPRING
IT ALL ON THEM AT ONCE.

OH, BOBBY. HA HA!

PAMMY!

HEY, BOBBY'S BACK.

YEAH?

AND HE'S BRINGING HOME A LADY.

MUST BE SOMETHING SPECIAL.

THE LADIES HE USUALLY RUNS WITH

HE DON'T BRING HOME
TO MEET MISS ELLIE.

HEY, UH, RAY, YOU
KNOW THIS LADY.

TAKE A LOOK.

YEAH? LET ME SEE THOSE THINGS.

GO RIGHT AHEAD.

WHY IS HE BRINGING PAM HERE?

LAST COUPLE BARBECUES,
YOU BROUGHT HER HERE TO,

WHILE YOU WERE GETTING SOUSED,

THEY WERE GETTING CHUMMY.

Lucy: THEY'RE MARRIED!

YOU'RE CRAZY.

YEAH, YOU'RE BLIND!

THEY'RE MARRIED!

SHUT UP.

IT'S FUNNY, RAY. I... SHUT UP!

MAMA.

THIS IS MY WIFE.

I'M SORRY. I... I DON'T
KNOW WHAT TO SAY.

WELL, YOU COULD START
BY SAYING GOOD LUCK.

AND HELLO.

MISS ELLIE, DO YOU MIND
IF I FRESHEN UP A LITTLE?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.

I'LL SHOW YOU, HONEY.

I'LL FIND IT. EXCUSE ME, BOBBY.

THANK YOU.

ISN'T SHE PRETTY, MAMA?

SHE'S ALSO CLIFF BARNES' SISTER

AND DIGGER BARNES' DAUGHTER.

NOW, MAMA...

I DON'T WANT TO
HEAR ANY NOW, MAMAS!

YOU COME ON INSIDE.

I'LL GET THE BAGS.

IT'LL KEEP.

HI.

Bradley: AW, WE
DIDN'T HAVE NO MONEY

FOR ANYTHING LIKE
THAT, YOUR HONOR.

Cliff: PLEASE, MR. BRADLEY,
JUST ADDRESS ME AS...

Miss Ellie: JOCK?

YES, ELLIE?

HEARD ANYTHING FROM BOBBY YET?

HE'S HERE, JOCK. JUST GOT IN.

WELL, SEND HIM RIGHT ON.
HE'S GOT TO GO TO AUSTIN.

Miss Ellie: I DON'T
THINK HE CAN GO.

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE HE CAME
HOME... WITH A WIFE.

WHAT?

Miss Ellie: A WIFE.

HE BROUGHT A WIFE HOME.

WHO IS SHE? ANYBODY?

J.R. WANTS TO KNOW
IF SHE'S ANYBODY.

SHE'S ANYBODY, ALL RIGHT,

AND YOU TWO BEST
COME RIGHT ON HOME.

Bobby: WELL, I'M NOT
SURE I CAN EVEN TELL YOU

HOW THE WHOLE THING HAPPENED.

EXCEPT THAT I
SAID I LOVED YOU...

AND SHE SAID, "I LOVE YOU,"

AND I SAID, "ARE YOU SURE?"

SHE SAID, "OF COURSE I'M SURE."

SO I SAID, "THEN LET'S
GET MARRIED RIGHT HERE

IN THIS OLD CITY
OF NEW ORLEANS."

SHE SAID,

"BOBBY EWING, THAT'S
ABOUT THE DUMBEST IDEA

I'VE EVER HEARD."

20 MINUTES LATER, THERE WE WERE,

STANDING IN FRONT OF
THAT OLD BAPTIST PREACHER,

SAYING, "I WILL, I WILL."

AND THAT WAS THAT.

I NEVER KNEW YOU WERE
SO IMPULSIVE, BOBBY.

WELL, I NEVER
KNEW I WAS, EITHER.

PAMELA, YOU SETTLED
INTO YOUR ROOM ALL RIGHT?

OH, YES, MA'AM.

COURSE, I ONLY HAVE
THE ONE SUITCASE,

BUT I'LL GO INTO DALLAS TOMORROW

AND GET MY THINGS.

YOUNG LADY.

WHEN'S THAT BROTHER OF YOURS
GONNA GIVE UP THAT CRUSADE

AGAINST US EWINGS?

DADDY, I DON'T THINK

THIS IS THE PROPER
TIME TO DISCUSS THAT.

I DON'T KNOW WHY NOT.

WE DON'T TALK BUSINESS
AT THIS HOUR, JOCK.

ANYBODY WANT A REFILL?

YEAH, I BELIEVE I WILL,
FATHER. CAN I HELP YOU?

Jock: YEAH.

Ray: AHEM.

EXCUSE ME, MR. EWING.

Jock: COME IN,
RAY. HAVE A DRINK.

NO, THANKS, SIR.

HEY. J.R.

I BELIEVE YOU KNOW PAMELA HERE.

SURE. PAM.

HI, RAY.

RAY KREBBS, HAVE YOU
HEARD THAT OUR BOBBY

HAS UP AND MARRIED
PAMELA BARNES?

YEAH, I HEARD.

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH.

Lucy: WHERE ARE
YOUR MANNERS, RAY?

YOU'RE GOING TO KISS
THE BRIDE, AREN'T YOU?

SURE.

WHERE ARE MY MANNERS?

CONGRATULATIONS.

YOU DON'T WANT A
DRINK OR ANYTHING,

DO YOU, RAY?

SOME OTHER TIME, BOBBY.

I DO WANT TO WISH
YOU LUCK, THOUGH.

WHY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

JUST SIGN RIGHT HERE, SIR.

Jock: MUCH OBLIGED, RAY.

Y'ALL HAVE A GOOD EVENING, NOW.

GOOD NIGHT, RAY.

GOOD NIGHT, RAY.

GOOD NIGHT.

WELL, THERE'S SOME LIGHT LEFT.

I'D LIKE TO SHOW PAMELA
OUR LITTLE HOUSE.

THERE'S PLENTY OF
TIME FOR THAT, J.R.

LET'S JUST GET TO
KNOW EACH OTHER FIRST.

WELL, I ALWAYS GET
TO KNOW PEOPLE BEST

ONE TO ONE.

YOU WILL EXCUSE US?

EXCUSE ME, PLEASE.

IT'S GETTING A BIT CHILLY OUT.

I THINK WE OUGHT TO GET
SOME WARM CLOTHES ON.

I THINK THIS IS ALL SO EXCITING.

DON'T YOU, SUE ELLEN?

WEDDINGS ALWAYS
ARE, AREN'T THEY?

FINE COUNTRY, ISN'T IT?

IT'S BEAUTIFUL.

I, UH, I GOT TO APOLOGIZE
FOR MY FATHER.

HE'S FROM ANOTHER GENERATION.

HE'S JUST USED TO
SPEAKING HIS OWN MIND.

NOW, HE REALLY DOESN'T
EXPECT YOU TO REVEAL ANYTHING

ABOUT YOUR BROTHER'S
POLITICAL ACTIVITIES.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING TO REVEAL.

WELL, OF COURSE YOU DON'T.

THIS IS MOTHER'S GARDEN.

IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE MUCH NOW,

BUT I'LL TELL YOU,
IN THE SPRING,

IT JUST BURSTS WITH BEAUTY.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT.

YEAH.

YEAH, SUE ELLEN AND I,

THIS IS OUR LITTLE
HOUSE OVER HERE.

IT'S NOT VERY BIG,
BUT IT'S COMFORTABLE.

HAS A LITTLE KITCHEN
AND A SITTING ROOM

AND EVEN HAS AN EXTRA BEDROOM

THAT WE'RE THINKING OF
MAKING INTO A NURSERY.

OH, IS SUE ELLEN...

NO. NO, NO, NO. NOT YET.

BUT IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME.

WE DO WANT AN HEIR

TO HEAD THE FAMILY
AND THE BUSINESS

FOR THE NEXT GENERATION.

ME AND BOBBY WANT KIDS, TOO.

COURSE YOU DO.

WHO LIVES THERE?

NO ONE NOW.

THAT, UH, THAT'S MY MIDDLE
BROTHER GARY'S HOUSE.

HE'S... HE USED TO LIVE THERE
WITH A LITTLE BRIDE, BRIEFLY.

DID YOUR BROTHER PUT
YOU UP TO THIS, MISS BARNES?

I... I DON'T THINK

THAT'S AN UNUSUAL
QUESTION TO ASK, MISS BARNES.

MRS. EWING! EXCUSE ME, PLEASE.

PERHAPS IT'D BE MORE APPROPRIATE

TO ASK WHAT SORT OF
SETTLEMENT YOU'D REQUIRE

TO ANNUL THIS FARCE?

LET GO OF MY ARM.

I'M WILLING TO SPEND
SOME MONEY NOW

TO AVOID ANY INCONVENIENCE,

BUT IF YOU INSIST ON
BEING DRIVEN AWAY,

WHICH YOU SURELY WILL BE,

YOU'RE GONNA COME OUT OF
THIS WITHOUT ANYTHING, HONEY.

HI THERE. WHAT'S GOING ON?

OH, JUST TALKING
A LITTLE BUSINESS.

MAMA DON'T LIKE BUSINESS TALK

WITH SUPPER ON THE TABLE, J.R.

WELL, YOU KNOW MAMA.
SHE'S SO OLD-FASHIONED.

COME ON, HONEY. LET'S GO.

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU WERE
ALLOWED TO SMOKE THOSE THINGS.

SMOKE WHAT THINGS?

I ASKED HER HOW MUCH SHE'D TAKE.

YOU DID WHAT?

I TRIED TO PAY HER OFF.

YOU JACKASS.

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE, DADDY.

YOU CALLED ME AT
THE OFFICE ALL UPSET

BECAUSE CLIFF BARNES
IS CRUCIFYING US ON TV.

YOU REALLY WANT BOBBY
MARRIED TO HIS SISTER?

I AIN'T SAYING I DO...

BUT IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU
LEARNED THE ART OF SUBTLETY.

WELL, WHY SHOULD I BE SUBTLE?

BECAUSE THE LACK OF IT TURNS
COMPETITORS INTO ENEMIES

AND ENEMIES INTO FANATICS.

ANYWAY, I AIN'T SO
SURE IT'S A BAD THING.

YOU'RE NOT?

WELL, YOU'VE SEEN
WHAT'S HAPPENING.

BOBBY WANTING TO
COME IN OFF THE ROAD,

BE AN EXECUTIVE.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?

THE P.R. IS IMPORTANT.

PIMPING, THAT'S WHAT IT IS.

I GOT NOTHING AGAINST
HIM SETTLING DOWN

AND TAKING ON A
LITTLE RESPONSIBILITY.

WELL, YOU PUT ME IN
YOUR CHAIR, DADDY.

SURE. THAT'S FINE.
JUST KEEP IT THAT WAY.

BUT I GOT MORE THAN ONE SON,

AND NOBODY SAYS YOU'VE
GOT TO RUN THINGS ALONE.

YOU BETTER GO SEE
YOUR WIFE, JUNIOR.

IF THEY GET TOO
MUCH OF A HEAD START,

MY FIRST GRANDSON'S
GONNA BE THEIRS.

GOOD NIGHT.

J.R.

THOUGHT YOU MIGHT
WANT TO TALK TO ME.

HOW IN HELL DID SHE
END UP MARRYING HIM?

YOU'RE ASKING ME?

I BROUGHT HER TO A
COUPLE OF BARBECUES HERE.

I DIDN'T KNOW THEY WERE
GETTING ON THAT WELL.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW
ABOUT YOU, RAY,

BUT I'M NOT STANDING
STILL FOR THIS.

I DON'T WANT TO STAND
STILL FOR IT EITHER, J.R.,

BUT THEY'RE MARRIED, AIN'T THEY?

YEAH.

SO WERE THOSE FINE LADIES

WE SPENT THAT
MEMORABLE WEEKEND WITH

UP AT WACO LAST YEAR.

JEEZ.

SO THEY WERE.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?

NOT ME. US.

YOU AND ME, RAY.

WE'RE GONNA BUST IT UP, RAYMOND.

WHAT ELSE?

YEAH. WHAT ELSE?

YOU GETTING UP,

OR YOU JUST GONNA ROLL
IN WHEN I OPEN THE DOOR?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING
UP FROM AUSTIN?

NO HEARINGS TODAY...

WHEN I HEARD ABOUT MY
LITTLE SISTER GETTING MARRIED.

WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE
DOING MARRYING A EWING?

I'M MARRYING A MAN.

BOBBY EWING IS NOT A MAN.

PAMELA, HE'S A EWING.

YOU KNOW WHO THOSE PEOPLE ARE.

THEY'RE ME NOW.

YOU KNOW, YOU USED
TO BE WORSE THAN I WAS...

BREAKING OUT WINDOWS IN
THE EWING BUILDING DOWNTOWN.

YOU USED TO PLOT REVENGE.

MAYBE MARRYING ONE
IS THE BEST REVENGE.

OH, I'LL BET THE
EWINGS THINK SO.

I DON'T CARE WHAT THEY THINK.

I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU THINK.

I LOVE BOBBY EWING. THAT'S IT.

WELL, I DON'T BELIEVE YOU,

'CAUSE, I MEAN, I THINK YOU
DO CARE WHAT THEY THINK,

AND I THINK YOU
CARE WHAT I THINK.

I THINK YOU CARE A LOT.

I'LL SEND A TRUCK
FOR THE REST OF THIS.

I GOT IT.

LET'S GO.

WHAT ABOUT DIGGER?
WHEN YOU GONNA TELL HIM?

I'LL GET AROUND TO IT.

"GET AROUND TO
IT." COME ON, PAM.

YOUR TELLING YOUR FATHER

OUGHT TO BE FIRST PRIORITY.

I CAN'T DEAL WITH DIGGER NOW.

I DON'T BLAME YOU.

JUST DON'T GO TELLING
ME HOW STRONG YOU ARE.

WHERE ARE YOU
GOING? WHAT IS THIS?

IS THAT... I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT CAR.

ALL RIGHT. I BELIEVE IT.

WHERE YOU GOING?

PAM, WHERE YOU GOING?

TO LOOK FOR DIGGER.

ARE YOU COMING?

NO.

AND I'M NOT RIDING IN THAT CAR.

FINE.

OH, JUST IN FRONT OF
THE SOFA, GUYS. THANKS.

JULIE?

YOUR NEW SECRETARY.
WANT TO MEET HER?

NOT RIGHT YET, THANK YOU.

UH, JULIE...

I'M GONNA NEED THE
COMBINATION TO THE SAFE.

OH, J.R. CHANGES IT EVERY MONTH.

I'LL HAVE TO ASK HIM.

HOW'S BABY BROTHER DOING?

HE WANTS THE COMBINATION.

WELL, HOW'S ALL THAT READING

COMING ALONG, BOBBY?

YOU GET THROUGH THAT STUFF YET?

IT'S ALL PRETTY
MUCH ROUTINE, J.R.

YEAH. WELL, NOBODY EVER SAID

NUTS AND BOLTS ARE INTERESTING,

BUT THEY HOLD
EVERYTHING TOGETHER.

I'D LIKE TO LOOK AT
THE RED FILES NOW.

WELL, NOW, IF YOU THINK

WHAT YOU'VE BEEN
READING IS DULL,

WAIT TILL YOU GET
IN THOSE RED FILES.

THEY'LL JUST PUT YOU TO SLEEP.

COME ON, J.R. BY THE
TIME I WAS 3 YEARS OLD,

I KNEW THE RED FILES MEANT
CURRENT AND IMPORTANT.

AND WHEN DADDY RETIRED,

I SEEM TO REMEMBER
HE VERY CEREMONIOUSLY

PRESENTED YOU WITH THE
COMBINATION OF THE SAFE.

SO DON'T TELL ME
IT'S ALL ROUTINE.

OK. I JUST THOUGHT YOU OUGHT

TO GET THROUGH THAT
HARDER STUFF, YOU KNOW.

ALL THAT PROCEDURES
AND OPERATIONS

AND EVERYTHING.

THAT BACKGROUND
STUFF IS REAL IMPORTANT.

OK, BOBBY. HERE YOU GO.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ANY TIME.

ANYTHING YOU NEED,
YOU JUST LET ME KNOW.

I'LL BE WITH YOU
IN JUST A MINUTE.

OK, THANKS.

I WANT YOU TO GO TO THE BANK,

PUT THIS IN MY
SAFETY DEPOSIT BOX.

AREN'T YOU GOING TO
SHARE YOUR SECRETS

WITH YOUR LITTLE BROTHER?

YOU JUST DO LIKE I TELL YOU.

TSK, TSK, TSK, TSK, TSK!

COME ON, BUDDY!
ANOTHER DRINK HERE!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, SIR.

THAT'S MIGHTY NICE OF YOU.

NOW, 1930 WAS MY... MY YEAR.

MY PARTNER AND I WALKED
OUT RIGHT HERE IN TEXAS,

AND I JUST FOLLOWED MY NOSE,

AND I SAID, "HERE!"

AND WE WENT BACK
TO REGISTER THE CLAIM,

AND I STAYED
THERE AND I DRILLED,

AND WHEN I THOUGHT
WE HAD ENOUGH,

10 TIMES MORE THAN
WE COULD EVER SPEND...

I SAID, "THAT'S APLENTY."

AND HE LOOKED AT ME
AND LAUGHED IN MY FACE

AND SAID THAT I OWNED NOTHING,

NOTHING AT ALL.

I EVEN OWED HIM SOME MONEY.

WELL... I TRIED TO KILL...

I TRIED TO KILL JOCK
EWING ONCE OR TWICE,

BUT I BUNGLED IT.

SEE, I CAN DRILL,
BUT I... I CAN'T KILL.

THERE YOU HAVE IT, PAMMY.

A PRODUCT OF
JOCK EWING'S ETHICS.

EXCUSE ME, EXCUSE ME.

Patron: HEY, YOU'RE
NOT A REGULAR!

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

IT'S ALL RIGHT, IT'S ALL RIGHT.

CLIFF, CLIFF.

LISTEN, DON'T TAKE HIM AWAY.

WE'RE HAVING A GOOD TIME HERE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

THERE.

PAMMY.

HI, DADDY.

YOU OK?

SURE, SURE, SURE.

DADDY, I... I CAME... UM?

I CAME TO TELL YOU.

I CAME TO TELL YOU
THAT I GOT MARRIED.

WELL, NOW WHAT DO
YOU THINK OF THAT?

DADDY, PLEASE
DON'T BE MAD OR HURT.

I LOVE MY HUSBAND, DADDY.

SURE, YOU DO.

BUT HE'S... HE'S BOBBY EWING.

UH-HUH.

DADDY, THE BOY I
MARRIED IS A EWING.

HMM.

Cliff: JOCK EWING'S BOY.

Miss Ellie: WELL, I HAVEN'T
GOT ENOUGH YELLOW HERE.

JOSIE, DON'T YOU FORGET
TO LIGHT THE CANDLES.

NOT RIGHT NOW, BUT
AT THE LAST MINUTE.

Josie: YES, MA'AM.

HI. Y'ALL LOOK BUSY.

OH, JUST A FEW FRIENDS
COMING OVER TONIGHT.

CAN I HELP?

OH, I DON'T THINK SO.

WE GOT SORT OF A
ROUTINE HERE, YOU KNOW?

RAUL, WOULD YOU PUT THESE
SPOONS OVER THERE, PLEASE?

I HAD YOUR BAGS SENT
UPSTAIRS FOR YOU.

THANK YOU.

YOU AIN'T GOT A CHANCE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WELL, WHEN THEY
DON'T WANT SOMEBODY,

THAT SOMEBODY
AIN'T GOT A CHANCE.

DO YOU RIDE HORSES?

I WISH I DID.

ALL YOU NEED IS A GOOD TEACHER.

RAY KREBBS WOULD TEACH YOU,

IF YOU ASKED HIM NICE.

DID YOU EVER HEAR THE STORY

ON HOW I COME TO BE HERE?

NO.

MY DADDY, HE'S THE THIRD
BROTHER IN THE MIDDLE.

GARY. I HEARD ABOUT HIM.

YEAH, THE BLACK SHEEP, A DRUNK,

LIKE YOUR DADDY.

ANYWAYS, ONCE UPON A TIME,

HE WENT OFF AND GOT THIS LOVELY

15-YEAR-OLD GIRL PREGNANT.

MY MOMMY. HE BROUGHT HER HOME,

BUT HE COULDN'T
DO NOTHING RIGHT.

HE STARTED
DRINKING ALL THE TIME.

DISAPPEARED FOR
WEEKS AND MONTHS,

CAME BACK AGAIN AND
STARTED HITTING MY MOM,

SO SHE UP AND LEFT, HER AND ME.

WHEN J.R. FOUND OUT,

HE CALLED SOME NICE
OLD BOYS IN DALLAS.

THEY WENT AFTER HER.

THEY CAUGHT UP WITH HER

ALL THE WAY OVER TO VIRGINIA,

AND THEY TOOK
BACK THE BABY... ME.

THEY TOLD HER THAT IF SHE EVER

CAME NEAR TEXAS
AGAIN, THEY'D KILL HER.

YOU KNOW, ONE TIME, I EVEN HEARD

SHE WENT TO THE
LAW TO GET ME BACK.

DIDN'T AMOUNT TO
ANYTHING, THOUGH.

IT WAS J.R. WHO DONE IT ALL.

YOU AIN'T GOT A CHANCE, LADY.

BOBBY, YOU SAID IT
WOULD GET BETTER,

AND INSTEAD, IT'S GETTING WORSE.

NOBODY SAID 10
WORDS TO ME AT DINNER.

I DON'T KNOW, HONEY.
MAYBE I WAS BEING

A LITTLE TOO MUCH AN OPTIMIST.

IN MY FORMER POSITION,

BEING AN OPTIMIST WAS A VIRTUE.

IT'LL JUST TAKE A WHILE
TO ADJUST, THAT'S ALL.

COME IN.

BOBBY, I'M SORRY. I DON'T
MEAN TO DISTURB YOU.

WE JUST GOT WORD

THE HEARINGS HAVE BEEN
CLOSED DOWN FOR A WHILE,

SO I WANT YOU TO
GET DOWN TO AUSTIN

THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS, OK?

J.R., I THOUGHT THIS
WAS ALL DECIDED.

BOBBY, THIS IS THE LAST TIME,

BUT IT'S GOTTA BE DONE.

THERE'S SOME OLD BOYS
DOWN THERE THAT OWE US,

AND I WANT YOU TO
REMIND THEM OF THAT FACT.

THE ONES THAT DON'T OWE US,

WELL, THAT GIVES
YOU A LITTLE TIME

TO RECTIFY THAT
SITUATION, DOESN'T IT?

J.R., I SAID

I WAS THROUGH WITH
THIS KIND OF WORK.

NOW, BOBBY, YOU'LL BE THROUGH

WHEN THE HEARINGS ARE OVER.

I WANT YOU TO LEAVE
EARLY IN THE MORNING.

SHOULDN'T TAKE
MORE THAN 3 OR 4 DAYS.

NIGHT, NOW.

IT'S THE LAST TIME,
HONEY, I PROMISE.

SURE, BOBBY.

IT'S FAMILY, PAMMY.
WHAT CAN I SAY?

NO.

GO UP TO THE NORTH PASTURE

AND SEE IF YOU CAN SPY
ANY OF THOSE STRAYS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED TO THEM.

THEY'RE JUST GONE. GONE.

UH, PAMELA, WHERE'S BOBBY?

HE'LL BE OUT IN A MINUTE.

OH, YEAH? YOU GOING FOR A WALK?

YEAH.

SAY, RAY'S GOING UP IN
THE HELICOPTER TODAY,

AND SINCE YOU'RE A EWING NOW,

I... I REALLY WANT YOU
TO SEE THE PLACE RIGHT,

SO WHY DON'T YOU GO UP WITH HIM?

NO, THANKS.

NO? SOMETHING THE MATTER?

YOU AFRAID OF FLYING, OR...

HEH! NO, I'M NOT
AFRAID OF FLYING.

OH.

OK. SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD IDEA.

HEY, YOU'RE GONNA LIKE IT.

HEY, YOU EVER BEEN UP
IN A HELICOPTER BEFORE?

NO.

HA! I WANT YOU TO TAKE
HER AROUND THE PLACE.

FORGET ANYTHING
I SAID, ALL RIGHT?

YOU JUST SHOW HER
THE WHOLE PLACE,

ANYTHING SHE WANTS TO DO. OK.

BOBBY.

J.R.

YEAH?

HAVE YOU SEEN
PAMMY THIS MORNING?

WELL, YEAH, I DID.

SHE WAS FIXING TO TAKE
A WALK AROUND HERE,

LOOK THE PLACE OVER.

WELL, SHE MUST BE
UPSET ABOUT THIS TRIP.

I CAN'T SAY I BLAME HER.

OH, IT'S WRONG FEELING
SORRY FOR YOURSELF, BOY.

I JUST DON'T LIKE LEAVING

WITHOUT SAYING
GOOD-BYE, THAT'S ALL.

YEAH.

Ray: YEAH, THERE'S PLENTY OF OIL

UNDERNEATH THIS RANCH
LAND, TOO, I EXPECT.

OLD MAN SOUTHWORTH...
MISS ELLIE'S DADDY...

HE LEFT THE SOUTHFORK
TO JOCK EWING,

BUT WITH THE PROVISION THAT
IT REMAIN A WORKING RANCH.

RUNNING CATTLE, IT
DON'T BRING IN MUCH.

NOT COMPARED TO OIL, ANYHOW.

BUT OLD JOCK, HE'S
GOTTEN TO LOVE IT,

THE COW PART.

LIKES TO THINK OF
HIMSELF AS A RANCHER.

WHO WAS I KIDDING?

WHAT?

NOTHING.

HEY, HOW ABOUT THIS NOW?

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT, HUH?

YOU'RE GONNA GET YOUR FEET WET.

NO, WE'RE OK, WE'RE OK.

I'M GONNA SET IT
RIGHT OVER HERE NOW.

BOBBY, YOU COULD'VE
HAD ANY WOMAN IN TEXAS.

I DIDN'T WANT THAT ANYMORE.

SO SHE'S SPECIAL.

WHY? BECAUSE OF THE
WAY SHE MAKES YOU FEEL?

AW, HELL, BOBBY,

RAY KREBBS HAS BEEN TELLING
ME ABOUT THAT GIRL FOR YEARS.

THAT'S ENOUGH, J.R.

I DON'T THINK IT IS.

WE NEED YOU DOWN IN AUSTIN.

THERE ARE THINGS
HAPPENING DOWN THERE

THAT ARE IMPORTANT,

COULD MEAN MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS TO US, BOBBY.

BUT IT'S NOT AS IMPORTANT
AS YOUR PEACE OF MIND.

AW, TO HELL WITH IT.

J.R., WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

SOMETHING DISTASTEFUL...
BUT NECESSARY.

Ray: IT'S NOT WORKING
OUT, IS IT, PAM?

NO, IT'S NOT.

WELL, THERE'S
SOMETHING TO BE SAID

FOR LIKE STICKING TO LIKE.

I NEVER BELIEVED THAT BEFORE.

WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO NOW, PAM?

I DON'T KNOW.

HEY...

MAYBE THIS ISN'T
THE TIME TO SAY THIS,

BUT YOU AND ME, IT
WAS GOOD, REAL GOOD.

WE SHOULD'VE GOT
HITCHED A LONG TIME AGO.

I GUESS I JUST
NEEDED TO LOSE YOU

TO REALIZE THAT.

OH, RAY, THAT'S SO SWEET.

YOU'VE BEEN SWEET RIGHT ALONG.

MAYBE IT'S NOT TOO LATE.

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

I CAN'T EVEN THINK STRAIGHT.

SURE.

WELL, AREN'T YOU GONNA SWIM?

ARE YOU KIDDING? IT'S FREEZING.

YOU USED TO LIKE THE COLD.

HA HA HA! NOT THAT MUCH.

YOU KNOW, IN THE OLD DAYS,

I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO DO THIS.

OHH! NO! WHOO!

AAH! OH, IT'S COLD!

OH, WHAT A LOUSY IDEA!

OH, IT'S COLD!

OH, YOU ARE MEAN,
YOU KNOW THAT? OH!

WELL, NOW WHAT? HEAD HOME?

WE'LL GO UP TO THE SHACK.

I'LL BUILD A FIRE,

MAKE US SOME FOOD AND COFFEE.

OK?

JUST LIKE OLD TIMES.

NO, THOSE OLD TIMES
WERE IN THE SUMMER!

Ray: SURE YOU DON'T WANT

SOME MORE OF THIS HOT JOE NOW?

Pam: UH-UH. MM! I'M FINE.

YOU DON'T LIKE MY COFFEE.

OH, I LOVE YOUR COFFEE.

YOU'RE SO BEAUTIFUL.

SHOULDN'T WE BE
GETTING BACK NOW?

NOW I SUPPOSE
YOU'RE GONNA TELL ME

THAT THIS ISN'T THE
MOST FUN YOU'VE HAD

IN THE LAST 3 DAYS.

I HAD A REAL GOOD TIME.

YEAH.

WHAT'S THAT?

WHAT?

WAIT A MINUTE.

IT'S J.R.

WELL, IT CAN'T BE.

HE'S ON THE WAY TO
AUSTIN WITH BOBBY.

WELL, IT IS, AND
BOBBY'S WITH HIM.

THIS IS A SETUP.

WHAT?

J.R. SET ME UP AND
YOU HELPED HIM?

NOW, PAM, I DON'T KNOW
WHERE YOU GET THAT IDEA.

NOTHING HAPPENED HERE.
YOU BETTER BACK ME UP.

I CAN'T HELP

WHAT CONCLUSIONS YOUR
HUSBAND'S GONNA DRAW.

YES, YOU CAN.

AND IF YOU DON'T BACK ME UP,

I'LL TELL J.R. ABOUT
YOU AND LUCY.

ME AND LUCY?

I SAW YOU AND LUCY
COMING OUT OF THE BARN.

SHE COULDN'T WAIT TO
TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT.

IF YOU TELL J.R.,
HE'S GONNA KILL ME.

THAT'S RIGHT.

SO BACK ME UP AND MAKE IT GOOD.

HI, J.R.

PAMELA.

HI, HONEY. NICE TO SEE YOU.

ISN'T IT NICE J.R. KNEW
EXACTLY WHERE WE'D BE?

UH, PAM FELL IN THE LAKE.

I SLIPPED IN TRYING
TO HELP HER OUT.

BOBBY, IF I WERE YOU...

IF I WERE YOU, I'D SHUT UP.

RAY SHOWED ME THE
RANCH, BUT IT WAS J.R.'s IDEA.

Bobby: IS THAT TRUE, J.R.?

IS THAT WHY GOING UP
TO AUSTIN COULD WAIT

TILL YOU BROUGHT ME UP HERE?

IT STOPS RIGHT NOW,
J.R. PAMELA'S MY WIFE,

AND YOU'RE GONNA
TREAT HER WITH RESPECT.

NOW, LISTEN HERE,
LITTLE BROTHER...

NO, I WON'T LISTEN.
AND YOU CAN STOP

THAT "LITTLE BROTHER"
NONSENSE, TOO,

BECAUSE THAT STOPS
FROM HERE ON IN.

JUST HOLD ON.

WE'LL ALWAYS BE BROTHERS, J.R.,

BUT IF YOU EVER TRY
AND FORCE ME TO CHOOSE,

THERE'S NOT A
CHANCE IN A MILLION

I'D CHOOSE YOU OR ANY
FAMILY ABOVE MY WIFE.

ARE YOU LISTENING?

YEAH, I'M LISTENING.

PAMELA'S PAST IS
NONE OF MY BUSINESS.

SHE WAS NOT MY WIFE IN THE PAST,

BUT SHE IS NOW, AND
YOU BETTER REMEMBER IT.

WELL, I DON'T THINK...

IT WAS A DUMB,
STUPID TRICK, J.R.!

OH, BOBBY! BOBBY, STOP
IT! HE'S YOUR BROTHER!

PLEASE.

SHE'S MY WIFE, J.R.

AND SHE'S GONNA STAY THAT WAY.

COME ON.

SORRY, J.R.

COUPLE MORE MINUTES...

IT'S ALL RIGHT, RAY.
NOT YOUR FAULT.

IT'S MINE.

I UNDERESTIMATED
THE NEW MRS. EWING.

WELL, I SURELY
WON'T DO THAT AGAIN.
