ISN'T SHE GREAT?

I TOLD YOU SHE WAS TERRIFIC.

SHE IS GREAT.

SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN GOOD,

NOW THAT SHE'S GOT
SOME REAL SONGS TO SING.

YOU'VE HEARD HER BEFORE?

WELL, HONEY, I HAD A LIFE
BEFORE I MARRIED BOBBY.

Lucy: IT'S RAY KREBBS.

Lucy: WHAT'S SHE DOING WITH RAY?

CAN WE GO OVER THERE?

I'D REALLY LIKE TO MEET HER.

I'D KIND OF LIKE TO
MEET HER, MYSELF.

OH, YOU WOULD, WOULD YOU?

WELL, DARLIN',

I WASN'T STRUCK
DEAF, DUMB, AND BLIND

WHEN I MARRIED YOU. COME ON.

I WOULDN'T MIND IF SHE
HUNG ALL OVER ME LIKE THAT.

WELL, WHY DON'T YOU
JUST GO GIVE IT A TRY, JOE?

I MEAN, YOU MAY BE ABLE
TO CUT RAY RIGHT OUT.

SHE MIGHT PREFER LITTLE BOYS.

I HEAR SOME WOMEN DO.

HEY... RAY! HI.

BOBBY.

YEAH. LISTEN, I'M
SORRY TO INTERRUPT,

BUT A FEW OF US WOULD

REALLY LIKE TO MEET THIS LADY.

UH, SURE, UH, BOBBY
EWING, GARNET McGEE.

A PLEASURE.

GARNET, I THINK YOU KNOW PAM?

OH, YES, WE'VE MET.

AND THIS IS LUCY EWING AND
HER FRIEND JOE NEWCOMB.

HOWDY. HI, JOE.

HELLO. HOW YOU DOING?

PULL UP SOME CHAIRS
HERE AND JOIN US.

THANK YOU.

KINDA DIDN'T EXPECT

TO SEE YOU ALL HERE TONIGHT.

WELL, I SAW YOU ON
THAT TV INTERVIEW,

AND I WANTED TO COME.

I'M SURPRISED

WE HAVEN'T SEEN
A LOT MORE OF YOU

ON TELEVISION.

OH, WELL, I GOT A WAY
TO GO BEFORE TELEVISION.

FIRST OUT OF THIS CLUB
AND INTO A BIGGER ONE

AND THEN RECORDS.

IT'S NOT EASY.

I'VE BEEN TRYING A LONG TIME.

BUT SOMEONE AS GOOD
AS YOU, I DON'T SEE WHY.

IT'LL HAPPEN. IT ALL
JUST TAKES TIME.

OH, IT'LL HAPPEN, ALL RIGHT.

I JUST NEED A BREAK.

COULD WE HAVE A
ROUND OF DRINKS, PLEASE,

AND THEN WHATEVER
THEY'RE DRINKING.

WELL, I SURELY DO ADMIRE
HIS TASTE IN WOMEN.

YOU LIKE HER?

WELL, DARLIN',

SHE'S A VERY HARD
PERSON NOT TO LIKE.

COME ON, LET'S GET OUTTA HERE.

NOW YOU TWO, DON'T BE TOO LATE.

YOU HAVE SCHOOL TOMORROW.

DON'T WORRY. I'LL BE RIGHT HOME.

GOOD NIGHT.

GOOD NIGHT, JOE.

BYE.

WELL, YOU WANNA DANCE?

OH, NO.

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

NOTHING.

COME ON.

WELL, IT'S GARNET.

SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN
ON THE MAKE, BOBBY.

SHE'S AN OPPORTUNIST.

WHEN I KNEW HER,

SHE WAS LIVING
WITH A SONGWRITER,

AND SHE STAYED LONG ENOUGH

TO GET HER REPERTOIRE TOGETHER.

YOU HEARD IT TONIGHT.

I DON'T KNOW. IT WORRIES ME.

I DON'T KNOW WHY SHE'S WITH RAY.

WELL, MAYBE SHE'S
IN LOVE WITH HIM.

COULD BE.

I ALSO DIDN'T LIKE THE WAY
SHE WAS LOOKING AT YOU.

ISN'T THAT AMAZING?
THAT'S WHAT I LIKED BEST.

COME ON, LET'S DANCE.

COME ON.

YOU BEEN ON THAT
RANCH HOW LONG NOW?

LONG TIME.

20 YEARS OR SO, I GUESS.

WHEW. DON'T YOU EVER
FEEL LIKE GETTING AWAY?

SOMETIMES.

YOU KNOW HOW IT IS, THOUGH.

I NEVER HAD A HOME
MUCH OR ANYTHING.

TIRED OF DRIFTING,
RUNNING FROM THE LAW,

JUVENILE AUTHORITIES.

SHOWED UP TO SOUTHFORK ONE DAY.

OLD JOCK JUST GAVE ME
A JOB RIGHT ON THE SPOT.

I WAS JUST THIS SKINNY,
LITTLE USELESS KID.

WELL, I'LL TELL YOU, I'VE
ALWAYS LOVED THAT RANCH.

BEEN SORT OF A HOME FOR ME.

NOW WITH GARY GONE,

BOBBY AND J.R. ARE
OFF INTO OTHER THINGS.

WHO'S GARY?

HE'S THE MIDDLE BROTHER.

HE, UH, NEVER GOT ON
TOO WELL WITH JOCK.

BUT YOU AND JOCK DO.

YEAH. WE ALWAYS
HAVE, FOR SOME REASON.

WORK REAL WELL TOGETHER.

YOU KNOW...

I BET IF YOU PLAYED
YOUR CARDS RIGHT,

YOU COULD MARRY
THAT LITTLE EWING GIRL.

YOU... YOU COME HERE, YOU.

[BOTH LAUGH]

ALL THESE MONTHS
WE'VE BEEN TOGETHER...

THEY'VE BEEN SOME
OF THE BEST OF MY LIFE.

I LOVE YOU, GARNET.

I CAN'T THINK OF
ANYBODY ELSE BUT YOU.

YOU WERE BORN POOR.

INTEND TO DIE THAT WAY, TOO?

I GOT EVERYTHING I NEED.

WHEN YOU GROW UP LIKE WE DID...

DIRT-POOR...

EVERYONE SEEING YOU
OWN NOT A BLANKET,

NOT A DOLLAR TOY,

IT AIN'T EASY BEING SATISFIED.

YOU'RE LUCKY.

YOU LEARNED HOW.

FOR ME, THE WANTING'S
LIKE A DISEASE.

NOTHING EVER CURES IT.
NOTHING'S EVER ENOUGH.

I'LL BE ENOUGH.

I PROMISE.

Miss Ellie: LUCY, WHERE ON EARTH

DID YOU GET THAT IDEA?

WELL, GRANDMA, MY
VOICE ISN'T HALF BAD,

AND WITH SOME LESSONS,
I COULD BE REALLY GOOD,

AND J.R. KNOWS ALL THOSE PEOPLE
DOWN IN NASHVILLE AND AUSTIN,

HE COULD HELP ME.

HEY, HEY, HEY, YOU
JUST HOLD ON, HONEY.

IF YOU THINK I'M GONNA

HELP YOU BECOME
A NIGHTCLUB SINGER,

YOU JUST FORGET ABOUT THAT.

Sue Ellen: LUCY, THIS
WHOLE THING'S ABSURD.

NO, IT'S NOT. I DON'T
SEE WHY I CAN'T

DO WHAT I WANT TO WITH MY LIFE.

I'D JUST LIKE TO KNOW

WHERE THIS HARE-BRAINED
IDEA CAME FROM.

WELL, DADDY, I GUESS
YOU COULD BLAME US.

WE TOOK HER TO SEE
GARNET McGEE LAST NIGHT.

YEAH? WHO'S THAT?

SHE'S A SINGER AT
THE MUSTANG CLUB.

IT WASN'T THEIR IDEA,
GRANDDADDY. I ASKED THEM TO.

Miss Ellie: LUCY, I
KNOW BEING A SINGER

MAY SEEM WONDERFUL TO YOU,

BUT IF WHAT I'VE READ IS TRUE,

IT'S A LIFE OF HARD WORK

AND TERRIBLE DISAPPOINTMENT.

YOU'D DO BETTER

TO THINK ABOUT FINISHING SCHOOL

AND DOING SOMETHING
PRACTICAL WITH YOUR LIFE.

YEAH, LIKE GETTING MARRIED
AND HAVING KIDS, I SUPPOSE.

LUCY, YOU MAKE IT SOUND

LIKE A FATE WORSE THAN DEATH.

WELL, I'M SURE IT'S FINE
FOR YOU, SUE ELLEN,

BUT I WANT TO DO

SOMETHING
INTERESTING WITH MY LIFE.

WELL, IF BY INTERESTING,

YOU MEAN BECOMING A SINGER,

YOU CAN FORGET THAT, DARLIN'.

I'M NOT GONNA

HAVE YOU EMBARRASS THIS FAMILY

BY BECOMING SOME SORT
OF PUBLIC SPECTACLE.

BUT...

JUST GET THAT IDEA OUTTA
YOUR HEAD, LUCY, YOU HEAR?

EXCUSE ME.

Jock: AND YOU, TOO,
FOR ENCOURAGING HER.

DADDY, WE DIDN'T
EXACTLY ENCOURAGE HER.

WE JUST TOOK HER OUT

FOR A NIGHT ON THE
TOWN, THAT'S ALL.

[NEIGHS]

WHOA!

[WHINNIES]

STOP IT!

HEY, LUCY... LUCY.

I BEEN LOOKING FOR YOU.

I'M ON MY WAY TO SEE
YOUR GRANDDADDY.

NOW YOU'RE GONNA GET KICKED,

YOU HANDLE A HORSE THAT WAY.

WATCH OUT. HOLD ONTO THE REINS.

YOU WERE TAUGHT A
LOT BETTER THAN THAT.

WHAT'S WRONG?

NO MATTER WHAT I WANT TO DO,

THEY NEVER LET ME.

FIGHTIN' WITH YOUR
FAMILY AGAIN, HUH?

YOU MAKE IT SOUND
LIKE IT'S MY FAULT.

WELL, IT TAKES TWO
TO MAKE A FIGHT, HONEY.

NOT WHEN ONE'S A
EWING, IT DOESN'T.

WELL, WHAT WAS IT THIS TIME?

I TOLD THEM I WANT
TO BE A SINGER.

YOU SHOULD HAVE HEARD THEM,

YOU'D THINK I SAID A HOOKER.

A SINGER?

WHAT'S THE MATTER?

DON'T YOU APPROVE, EITHER?

SEEMS TO ME YOU LIKE
SINGERS WELL ENOUGH.

THAT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

NONE OF MY BUSINESS?

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT

AFTER ALL WE'VE
BEEN TO ONE ANOTHER?

LUCY, THAT'S OVER WITH.

NOW GET UP HERE ON
THIS HORSE, WILL YA?

NO!

BOY.

GRAB THIS REIN, GO
OUT AND RIDE, WILL YA,

AND GET RID OF SOME
OF THAT BAD TEMPER?

AND GET TO SCHOOL ON TIME.

IT'S NOT OVER,
NOT UNTIL I SAY IT IS.

OH, YEAH?

GIT ON OUTTA HERE!

WELL, I'M REAL CLOSE TO
GETTING THOSE PLANS OK'd,

BUT FARRADAY SAID
HE WANTED MODERN,

AND MODERN FOR
HIM STOPPED IN 1935.

DARLIN',

ARE YOU STILL THINKING
ABOUT GARNET AND RAY?

EVEN IF YOUR SUSPICIONS
ABOUT HER ARE JUSTIFIED,

RAY'S LIFE IS NONE
OF YOUR BUSINESS.

NOW, YOU CAN'T INTERFERE.

NO, I DON'T HAVE ANY SUSPICIONS.

BOBBY, I'VE KNOWN
RAY A LONG TIME,

AND HE'S SUCH A GOOD MAN.

I THINK HE DESERVES THE BEST.

HMM, SECOND BEST.

BYE.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK?

SAME AS YOU, JOCK.
LOOK REAL GOOD.

YOU KNOW,

IF WE GET THE RIGHT
CROSS-STRAIN IN,

WE COULD HAVE A GOOD HERD.

YOU BET WE CAN, SIR.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AROUND.

YEAH.

OH, MY, RAY.

YOU'LL BE OK.

OH, LORD, I HATE CROWDS.

YOU SING TO PROBABLY

3 TIMES AS MANY
PEOPLE EVERY NIGHT.

THAT'S DIFFERENT.
THEY'RE MY PEOPLE.

YOU HUNGRY?

ARE YOU KIDDIN'?

BOY, THAT LOOKS GOOD.

MMM, SURE DOES.

WELL, HELLO. WELCOME.

HELLO, LUCY.

HELLO.

WELL, YOU DON'T MIND IF
I INITIATE THINGS, DO YOU,

BY HAVING THE FIRST DANCE?

OF COURSE NOT.

GARNET?

YOU DIDN'T TELL ME
YOU WERE BRINGING HER.

OH, ANY REASON I
SHOULD HAVE, HONEY?

RAY... LET'S DANCE.

OH, RAY? SEE YOU A MINUTE?

YOUR GRANDDADDY'S CALLING
ME. HOW ABOUT LATER, OK?

EXCUSE ME.

SO HOW'D YOU MANAGE TO GET OFF?

I DIDN'T. MY FIRST
SHOW IS AT 10:00.

WELL, I'M GLAD YOU COULD COME,

EVEN IF IT'S JUST
FOR A LITTLE WHILE.

I THINK MAYBE I AM, TOO.

COME ON, LET'S GET A DRINK.

OH, PAMELA, HI, DARLING.

LOOK WHO I FOUND.

WELL, HELLO, GARNET.

HELLO, PAM.

BOBBY, COULD I BORROW
YOU FOR A MINUTE?

THERE'S SOME PEOPLE OVER THERE

WHO HAVEN'T SEEN
YOU SINCE YOU WERE 5.

OH, IT SURE IS NICE HERE.

YES, IT IS.

ENJOY YOURSELF.

I'M STILL LIVIN' IN
THE SAME OLD PLACE

ON BELLE CLAIRE.

I GOTTA HAND IT TO YA, HONEY.

NEVER WOULD'VE THOUGHT
YOU'D DO SO GOOD FOR YOURSELF.

STARTING OUT THE WAY WE DID...

YOU DON'T FIGURE
TO END UP LIKE THIS.

I GUESS I WAS LUCKY.

I FIGURE WE ALL
MAKE OUR OWN LUCK.

WHAT ABOUT RAY?

HE'S A REAL SWEET GUY.

IF THINGS WERE
DIFFERENT... YOU'LL USE HIM

UNTIL SOMETHING
BETTER COMES ALONG.

DIDN'T YOU?

WELL, HERE SHE IS.

GARNET, HONEY, I
GOT SOMEBODY HERE

I'D LIKE YOU TO MEET.

WELL, WELL.

GARNET McGEE, JOCK EWING.

HOWDY, MA'AM.

RAY'S TOLD ME SO MUCH ABOUT YOU.

WELL, I CAN IMAGINE

THE THINGS HE MIGHT HAVE SAID.

[LAUGHS] I DON'T THINK YOU CAN,

BUT IF YOU ASK ME TO
DANCE, I MIGHT TELL YOU SOME.

YOU GOT A DEAL. COME ON.

PARDON ME, PAM.

EXCUSE ME, HONEY.

AIN'T SHE SOMETHING?

OH, YEAH.

SO I TOLD HIM,

"IF YOU DON'T COME UP
WITH A PHONY DEPOSITION,

YOU... YOU'RE FINISHED,
BUDDY, JUST FINISHED."

HA HA HA HA HA!

WHO'S THAT DANCING
WITH YOUR GRANDDADDY?

JUST SOMEONE RAY BROUGHT.

AH.

HEY, RAY.

J.R.?

WHO'S THAT LITTLE
GIRL DANCING WITH DAD?

I'D LIKE TO MEET HER.

OH, NO, NOT THIS TIME.

THAT LITTLE GAL IS
SOMETHING SPECIAL.

I'M IN LOVE WITH THAT GAL.

HA HA HA. SURE YOU ARE.

SAY, DADDY, BROUGHT YOU A DRINK.

MIND IF I CUT IN?

OH, NO, NO. I DON'T MIND.

THIS IS MY SON J.R.

GARNET McGEE.

YOU KNOW, I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE

TO TAKE MY EYES
OFF YOU ALL NIGHT.

[BOTH LAUGH]

MORNING, RAY.

MORNING.

YOU GONNA HERD
CATTLE IN THAT OUTFIT?

NO, I THOUGHT I'D CHANGE FIRST.

DAD WANTS TO SEE YOU.

WELL, I'LL GO RIGHT
ON IN AND SEE HIM THEN.

GOOD.

OH, GOOD MORNING.

I WENT LOOKING
FOR YOU LAST NIGHT.

WHERE WERE YOU, WITH HER?

COME ON, EXCUSE ME NOW, HONEY.

I GOTTA GO SEE YOUR GRANDDADDY.

LOOK, I LIKE YOU

TO BE THERE WHEN I NEED YOU,

AND I DON'T LIKE IT WHEN
YOU'RE NOT AROUND.

COME ON, LUCY.

YOU BETTER WATCH OUT

BECAUSE J.R. DOESN'T
LIKE YOU SEEING GARNET

ANY BETTER THAN I DO!

JOCK?

YEAH?

YOU LOOKIN' FOR ME?

COME IN.

YOU KNOW, THAT'S QUITE
A GIRL YOU GOT THERE.

DOES SHE SING AS
GOOD AS SHE LOOKS?

YOU BET SHE CAN, SIR.

I'D LIKE TO HEAR HER.

BEEN QUITE A WHILE

SINCE MISS ELLIE AND I
BEEN OUT ON THE TOWN.

WE'RE ABOUT DUE FOR A SPREE.

SIT DOWN.

THANK YOU, SIR.

THERE'S A LOT WE'VE GOT
TO TALK ABOUT, ANYWAY.

SEEING YOU WITH THAT
GIRL MADE ME WONDER...

WELL, JUST WHAT SORT OF PLANS

YOU MIGHT BE MAKING
FOR THE FUTURE.

WELL, I'M GONNA MARRY HER,
IF THAT'S WHAT YOU MEAN, SIR.

[CHUCKLES] WHEN?

AS SOON AS I CAN
TALK HER INTO IT.

YOU KNOW HOW
WOMEN ARE THESE DAYS,

PRETTY DAMN INDEPENDENT.

WELL, I'M NOT TRYING
TO PRY, RAY, I JUST...

NO, SIR, NO, THAT THOUGHT
NEVER CROSSED MY MIND.

I'VE BEEN MEANING TO TELL
YOU ABOUT THIS ANYWAY.

I'M JUST SORT OF WAITING

TILL THINGS ARE A
LITTLE MORE OFFICIAL.

YEAH, WELL, WHAT
I'M TRYING TO GET AT

IS WHEN YOU DO MARRY,
WHAT ABOUT SOUTHFORK?

ARE YOU PLANNING ON LEAVING?

I DON'T THINK SO, SIR.

I... I MEAN, IT'S
REAL HARD TO SAY.

WELL, I WAS GOING
TO GIVE YOU THIS

IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS, ANYWAY.

CELEBRATE YOUR
BEING HERE 20 YEARS.

THAT'S A WHOLE SECTION

OF PRIME SOUTHFORK
LAND AT THE NORTHERN END.

JOCK, I, UH...

YOU WERE THE SKINNIEST KID AT 15

THAT I EVER SAW IN MY LIFE.

NO DOUBT ABOUT MY HIRING YOU.

I KNEW YOU'D STICK AROUND

AND WORK YOUR TAIL OFF.

THAT'S JUST TO MAKE
SURE THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS

WANT TO DO JUST THAT, RAY,

WHATEVER HAPPENS IN
THE REST OF YOUR LIFE.

THANK YOU, SIR.

IT'S WONDERFUL.

WHAT IS IT?

OH, WHAT DIFFERENCE
DOES IT MAKE?

AS LONG AS YOU LIKE IT.

SO I'LL KNOW WHAT
TO ASK FOR NEXT TIME.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I'LL TAKE CARE OF THAT
JUST LIKE I DID TODAY.

YOU LIKE TAKING CARE
OF THINGS, DON'T YOU?

SOME THINGS.

MOST THINGS, I BET.

BUT I TAKE PRETTY
GOOD CARE OF MYSELF.

YOU GONNA INVITE ME IN?

YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE
TROUBLE WITH MARRIED MEN.

ALL THEY HAVE TO OFFER

IS LITTLE BITS OF
TIME HERE OR THERE...

MOSTLY IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE AFTERNOON.

OH, I THINK I GOT MORE
THAN THAT TO OFFER.

OH, SURE, BABY, I KNOW.

YOU'RE A TERRIFIC LOVER.

FRANKLY, I DON'T CARE.

LOTS OF GUYS ARE.

IT'S NOT ENOUGH.

DOES RAY GIVE YOU ENOUGH?

HE GIVES ME EVERYTHING HE'S GOT,

AND IF HE HAD MORE,
HE'D GIVE ME THAT, TOO.

THERE AREN'T A
LOT OF MEN LIKE HIM.

IF I DROVE OFF

AND YOU NEVER
HEARD FROM ME AGAIN...

THAT'S UP TO YOU, BABY,
ENTIRELY UP TO YOU.

THANKS FOR LUNCH.

OK... ♪ WE CAN
LOVE ONE ANOTHER ♪

♪ FEEL FOR EACH
OTHER FROM NOW ON ♪

♪ FEELS SO GOOD, I
CAN'T HARDLY STAND IT ♪

SONG OF LOVE TO YOU ♪

WHY DON'T WE GO HOME NOW?

Jock: YOU SURE SUE
ELLEN'S ALL RIGHT?

OH, YES, SIR. SHE'S
UPSTAIRS RESTING.

MAYBE WE SHOULD CALL
UP THE DOCTOR, MISS ELLIE.

A LITTLE MORNING SICKNESS

ISN'T UNUSUAL, JOCK.

IT'S NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW.

OH, DAD,

BY THE WAY, REMEMBER
THAT PRIZE BULL

SAM GURNEY BOUGHT
A COUPLE YEARS AGO?

YEAH.

WELL, I HEARD DOWN AT THE CLUB

THAT HE MIGHT BE
INTERESTED IN SELLING THAT.

IS THAT RIGHT?

HE OUTBID ME BEFORE, YOU KNOW.

I WONDER HOW MUCH HE WANTS.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW.

HAVING SOME KIND OF MONEY
TROUBLE, I UNDERSTAND.

WELL, I GUESS IT
WOULDN'T DO ANY HARM

TO SEND RAY TO
ODESSA AND HAVE A LOOK.

NOBODY KNOWS CATTLE
ANY BETTER THAN HE DOES.

WELL, IF I RUN INTO HIM,

I'LL TELL HIM TO COME UP
TO THE HOUSE AND SEE YOU.

EXCUSE ME, MAMA.

[HORSE NEIGHS]

HEY, RAY?

YEAH?

DADDY'S LOOKING FOR YA.

YEAH?

YEAH, THERE'S A BULL
FOR SALE OUT IN ODESSA.

HE WANTS YOU TO
GO TAKE A LOOK AT IT.

ODESSA?

YEAH, PRETTY QUICK, TOO.

TODAY, AS A MATTER OF FACT.

LOOK, I GOT A LOT OF
THINGS PLANNED TODAY, J.R.

OH, WELL, YOU
KNOW WHAT THEY SAY,

"BUSINESS BEFORE PLEASURE."

OH, IT'S... IT'S NOT THAT.

IT'S SOMETHING DIFFERENT,

YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

WELL, IF YOU DON'T WANT TO GO,

YOU BETTER TELL HIM YOURSELF.

IT'S DAD'S IDEA,

AND AFTER ALL, YOU
DO WORK FOR HIM.

YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY, HEAR?

Ray: GARNET!

I WASN'T EXPECTING
YOU TILL TONIGHT.

WELL, SOMETHING'S COME UP.

I GOTTA GO TO ODESSA.

TODAY? YEP.

HOW LONG YOU GONNA BE GONE?

WELL, THAT DEPENDS.

I WANT YOU TO GO WITH ME.

OH, BUT, RAY, I CAN'T.

EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED NOW

SINCE JOCK GAVE ME
THAT SECTION OF LAND.

I'M NOT JUST A RANCH
HAND ANYMORE.

I'M A LANDOWNER.

YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS TO ME?

WHAT THAT MEANS TO US?

GARNET.

I WANT TO GET MARRIED, GARNET.

NOW, WE CAN BE ON A PLANE

AND BE DOWN IN
MEXICO BY SATURDAY.

HONEY... IT'S THE
WEEKEND COMING UP, NOW.

I KNOW, THAT'S EXACTLY IT.

I CAN'T JUST NOT SHOW UP
AT THE CLUB ON A WEEKEND.

WELL, YOUR BOSS
WOULD UNDERSTAND.

UNDERSTAND?

HE'LL KILL ME.

WELL, I'LL JUST CALL JOCK.

HE'LL... HE'LL FIX IT.

LISTEN, SUGAR,

THERE ARE SOME THINGS
NOT EVEN A EWING CAN FIX.

I GOT MY NAME TO PROTECT.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO ME.

I CAN'T AFFORD A REPUTATION
FOR RUNNING OUT ON CLUB DATES.

GARNET, IT'S ONLY A WEEKEND.

I JUST... CAN'T.

YOU DON'T WANT TO MARRY ME.

THAT'S IT, ISN'T IT?

OH, HONEY,

IT'S NOT THAT I DON'T
CARE ABOUT YOU, HONEY.

YOU KNOW I DO.

IT'S JUST... I GOT
THINGS I GOTTA DO

BEFORE I CAN EVEN
THINK OF MARRYING.

NOW, I TOLD YOU THAT.

I HAVE NEVER LIED TO YOU.

I LOVE YOU.

OH, RAY, THINGS ARE
SO GREAT WITH US.

CAN'T WE JUST LET THEM
GO ON THE WAY THEY ARE?

WHY DO WE HAVE TO
CHANGE ANYTHING?

BECAUSE I WANT
YOU TO BE MY WIFE,

THAT'S WHY.

IT'S A WORD, HONEY.

YOU'VE GOT AS MUCH OF ME
NOW AS I'M CAPABLE OF GIVING.

YOU AREN'T GONNA GET
ANY MORE BY MARRYING ME.

GO TO ODESSA...

BUT HURRY BACK, HEAR?

I'M GONNA MISS YOU.

SAY, MERVIN, YOU GOT
THAT STUDIO TIME FOR ME?

YOU BET, J.R., GOT
THE MUSICIANS, TOO.

IT'S THE BACKUP
GROUP FROM THE CLUB.

OH, THEY'RE FINE,

EXCEPT FOR MAYBE
THE GUITAR PLAYER.

WELL, GET RID OF HIM.

I WANT THIS DONE REAL
GOOD FOR DAN INGALLS.

WILL DO.

I'M GONNA BE ABOUT AN HOUR LATE,

SO YOU KEEP HIM
HAPPY, ALL RIGHT?

RIGHT, J.R.

OK.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

YEAH?

Louella: GARNET McGEE IS HERE.

SEND HER IN.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

GARNET.

YOU SENT FOR ME, MR. EWING?

WELL, THIS IS A
BUSINESS MEETING.

I THOUGHT MY OFFICE

WOULD BE THE
APPROPRIATE PLACE FOR IT.

CAN I GET YOU SOMETHING?

I DON'T DRINK.

I SUPPOSE RAY'S TRIP TO ODESSA

WAS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.

WELL, YOU'RE GONNA
BE PRETTY BUSY

THE NEXT FEW DAYS.

I DON'T THINK YOU'LL MISS HIM.

OH, BUSY? DOING WHAT?

YOU KNOW WHO DAN INGALLS IS?

SURE, I DO. HE OWNS
DOWN HOME RECORDS.

HE'S A FRIEND OF MINE.

I BET YOU GOT LOTS OF FRIENDS.

MM-HMM.

WHAT'S THE DEAL?

WELL, IT'S A SIMPLE ARRANGEMENT.

I INTRODUCE YOU TO DAN,

HE GIVES YOU A
RECORDING CONTRACT, AND...

I USE EWING OIL MONEY
TO SUPPORT YOU AND...

BUILD YOU UP TO STARDOM.

AND, UH, IN RETURN?

I GET 25% OF YOUR
EARNINGS FROM ALL SOURCES

AND THE EXCLUSIVE
USE OF YOUR SERVICES

FOR AS LONG AS I WANT THEM.

10%.

DONE.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A HARD TIME

ENFORCING THAT
EXCLUSIVITY CLAUSE

WHEN I'M ON THE ROAD.

YOU LET ME WORRY
ABOUT THAT, HONEY.

WASN'T THAT GARNET
McGEE WITH J.R.?

YES, SIR.

Ray: JOCK TOLD ME

YOU'RE READY TO PART
WITH THAT OLD BULL.

I CAN'T UNDERSTAND HOW
THAT RUMOR GOT STARTED.

NOW, YOU'RE SURE THAT
BULL'S NOT FOR SALE?

IS THAT RIGHT?

I'D NEVER PART WITH THAT BULL,

AND OLD JOCK EWING KNOWS IT.

IS HE TRYING TO
PULL A TRICK ON ME?

NO, SIR.

I THINK I JUST GOT THE WRONG
END OF THE STICK THIS TIME.

YOU SURE CAME A
LONG WAY FOR NOTHING.

SURE DID.

LISTEN, WHY DON'T YOU STAY
TONIGHT, HAVE SOME SUPPER,

GET A FRESH START
BACK IN THE MORNING?

NO, THANKS, DAN.

I THINK I'LL HEAD ON BACK NOW.

ALL RIGHTY.

LISTEN, YOU FIND OUT
WHO STARTED THAT RUMOR,

YOU LET ME KNOW.

YOU BET.

TAKE CARE, NOW.

MISS EWING, I REALLY
DON'T THINK YOU SHOULD.

IT'S OK, LOUELLA.

I'M JUST GONNA WAIT RIGHT HERE.

IT'LL BE FINE. THANK YOU.

WELL, HE SHOULDN'T BE LONG.

HE'S JUST DOWN AT THE LAB,

CHECKING OUT SOME OIL SAMPLES.

FINE.

"GARNET McGEE,

"EXCLUSIVE SERVICE AGREEMENT...

CONTRACT..."

J.R.: OH, SHE IS, IS SHE?

AH, TO WHOM DO I
OWE THIS PLEASURE?

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU, J.R.

CAN'T IT WAIT TILL
WE GET HOME, HONEY?

I CAN'T TALK TO YOU THERE.

THERE'S JUST NO
PRIVACY IN THAT HOUSE.

OH, AM I ABOUT TO BE
HONORED WITH A CONFIDENCE?

WELL, MY, HOW THINGS CHANGE.

I WANT YOUR HELP, J.R.

I KNOW Y'ALL JUST
THINK I'M DREAMING

ABOUT BEING A
SINGER, BUT I'M NOT.

I'VE GOT TALENT. I REALLY HAVE.

NOW, IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY,

LAST YEAR, YOU WANTED
TO JOIN THE CIRCUS

AND PUT ON BLACK TIGHTS
AND DANCE ON A HORSE...

THAT WAS DIFFERENT,
J.R. I'M OLDER NOW.

NO, NO. EXACTLY...

EXACTLY THE SAME
THING TO ME, HONEY.

NO, IT'S NOT, J.R. PLEASE,

JUST BACK ME WITH GRANDDADDY.

HE'LL LET ME, IF
YOU SAY IT'S OK.

UH-UH.

HE WILL, AND THEN
I'LL WORK HARD.

I REALLY WILL WORK HARD.

JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE. PLEASE?

UH-UH.

YOU WON'T CHANGE YOUR MIND?

I'M NOT IN THE HABIT OF THAT.

NOT EVEN IF I DON'T
TELL GRANDDADDY

ABOUT THAT CONTRACT
ON YOUR DESK?

WHAT I SHOULD DO
IS ENCOURAGE HIM

TO SEND YOU AWAY TO THAT SCHOOL

HE'S ALWAYS
THREATENING YOU WITH.

GET YOU OUT OF ALL OUR HAIR.

SUE ELLEN MIGHT LIKE
TO KNOW, MAYBE RAY.

WHY, LUCY EWING...

ARE YOU TRYING TO
BLACKMAIL OLD J.R.?

NO. I JUST WANT YOUR HELP.

ALL RIGHT, HONEY. GO
ON. YOU TAKE THESE.

TAKE 'EM HOME AND SHOW
'EM TO ANYBODY YOU LIKE.

AND WHAT'S IT GONNA PROVE?

EWING OIL IS BRANCHING OUT
INTO THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS.

A LOT OF MONEY IN THAT.

AND WHAT IT WILL PROVE

IS THAT YOU ARE YOUR
MOTHER'S DAUGHTER:

A SCHEMING,
BLACKMAILING LITTLE TRAMP.

GOT A CONTRACT FOR YOU.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

YES?

I SAW YOUR LIGHT.

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

JUST FINE, MISS ELLIE.

WHAT TIME DID J.R. SAY
HE'D BE COMING HOME?

WELL, HE DIDN'T.

DAN INGALLS IS IN
FROM NASHVILLE,

AND, UH, HE SAID

HE OWED HIM A NIGHT
OUT ON THE TOWN...

AND I THINK THAT
MEANS ALL NIGHT.

[SIGHS]

WELL... HE'S VERY
LUCKY TO HAVE A WIFE

AS UNDERSTANDING AS YOU ARE.

YOU CAN'T BE MARRIED
TO J.R. FOR 7 YEARS

AND NOT UNDERSTAND HIS, UH...

DEVOTION TO THE BUSINESS.

GOOD NIGHT, SUE ELLEN.

GOOD NIGHT, MISS ELLIE.

♪ FROM THE FIRST TIME WE MET ♪

♪ I KNEW ♪

I'D HAVE A DOLLAR.

WELL, I'LL SEE YOU AND
RAISE YOU A DOLLAR.

CAN I RAISE AGAIN?

YOU GOT THAT GOOD A HAND?

TA-DA!

OH, YOU LITTLE RASCAL, YOU.

AH HA!

I'LL GET THE BETTER
OF YOU YET. OH!

DON'T YOU COUNT ON IT.

YOU HUNGRY AGAIN?

HONEY, I AM ALWAYS HUNGRY.

WERE YOU VERY POOR?

UH-HUH. YOU WANT SOME OF THIS?

THERE WERE 10 OF US, J.R.

YOU KNOW, I NEVER HAD

A PAIR OF SHOES OF
MY OWN, BRAND-NEW,

TILL I WAS 16 YEARS OLD
AND STARTED WORKING.

ALWAYS HAD MY MAMA'S
OR MY BIG SISTER'S.

I FIGURE THAT'S HOW
COME I'M SO GREEDY NOW.

WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?

I DON'T NEED ONE.

THAT'S PROBABLY HOW
COME I LIKE YOU SO MUCH.

IS IT?

YOU'RE JUST THE WAY I AM...

MAYBE A LITTLE WORSE,

AND NOT THE LEAST LITTLE BIT

ASHAMED OF IT, ARE YOU?

YOU REALLY LIKE ME?

WELL... I STILL
HAVE A WHOLE PACK

OF LITTLE BROTHERS AND SISTERS

TO TAKE CARE OF, NOT
TO MENTION MYSELF.

[CHUCKLING]

HEY... HEY, J.R.,

DON'T YOU HAVE TO GO HOME NOW?

SUE ELLEN'S A VERY
UNDERSTANDING WIFE.

WHEN RAY GETS BACK, I
WANT YOU TO FINISH IT.

I MEAN IT.

FINISH IT WITH HIM.

'CAUSE IF YOU DON'T, I WILL.

JOCK.

RAY.

SULLY SAID I'D PROBABLY
FIND YOU OUT HERE.

BACK ALREADY, HUH?

YEAH, I, UH, DECIDED
NOT TO STAY OVER.

YOU GOT A DEAL?

NO DEAL, JOCK.

WHY NOT?

WELL, I GUESS J.R.

MUST HAVE GOT THE
WRONG IDEA ABOUT THAT.

BULL'S NOT FOR SALE.

OH, DAMN IT.

J.R. DON'T MAKE
MISTAKES LIKE THAT...

WASTE A WHOLE DAY
ON A WILD GOOSE CHASE.

I WANTED THAT BULL REAL BAD.

MAN, YOU LOOK BEAT.

BETTER GET SOME REST.
SEE YOU IN THE MORNING.

YES, SIR.

I DIDN'T EXPECT TO SEE YOU

UNTIL SOMETIME TOMORROW.

YOU MUST HAVE
BEEN IN A BIG HURRY.

ARE YOU CRAZY?

YOU KNOW YOUR GRANDDADDY'S
RIGHT OUTSIDE HERE?

WHAT IF HE SAW YOU COMING IN?

RAY... IS THAT ALL
YOU CAN THINK ABOUT...

MY GRANDDADDY FINDING OUT?

NOW WILL YOU JUST GO ON
UP TO THE HOUSE, HONEY?

I'M GONNA GET CLEANED
UP AND GO INTO TOWN NOW.

I HARDLY SEE YOU ANYMORE, RAY.

WILL YOU JUST GO
ON UP TO THE HOUSE?

OH, RAY.

CAN'T... CAN'T YOU EWINGS
TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER?

LUCY, LISTEN TO ME
NOW. IT'S OVER WITH.

NO.

I KNOW IT HASN'T
BEEN EASY FOR YOU,

GROWING UP THE WAY YOU
DID... NO MAMA, NO PAPA.

I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN LONELY
A LOT OF THE TIME, LUCY.

I'M NOT RUNNING OUT ON YOU.

I'M JUST TRYING
TO BE YOUR FRIEND.

NOW THE OTHER IS OVER WITH.

I WAS WRONG TO LET IT GET
STARTED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

I WAS WRONG TO LET IT
GO ON AS LONG AS IT DID.

I'M JUST NOT GOING
FOR IT ANYMORE.

RAY...

YOU'RE A FOOL IF YOU'RE
GIVING UP ME FOR GARNET.

HONEY, THIS HAS NOTHING
TO DO WITH GARNET.

THAT'S GOOD,

'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT GONNA
HAVE HER FOR VERY LONG.

J.R. WANTS HER.

WHAT J.R. WANTS, J.R. GETS.

NOT THIS TIME.

WE'RE GONNA GET MARRIED, LUCY,

SOON AS HER CAREER IS TOGETHER.

WELL, GOOD. THAT OUGHT
TO BE REAL SOON NOW,

SEEING AS HOW SHE SIGNED
THAT CONTRACT WITH J.R.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I WAS IN THE OFFICE
THIS AFTERNOON,

AND I SAW IT.

J.R. HAS SIGNED HER TO AN
EXCLUSIVE SERVICE AGREEMENT,

WHATEVER THAT MEANS.

AND, IF YOU'VE NOTICED, J.R.
HASN'T COME HOME TONIGHT.

I EXPECT HE'S OUT SOMEWHERE,
BUSY ACCEPTING HER GRATITUDE.

RAY...

RAY, WAIT A MINUTE!
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

RAY, DON'T! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

Lucy: RAY, WAIT A MINUTE!

RAY, WAIT A MINUTE,
WILL YOU? COME ON, RAY!

RAY, WAIT, WILL YOU?
COME ON, RAY! STOP!

RAY, WAIT A MINUTE.

RAY... I ONLY SAID IT
TO MAKE YOU MAD, RAY!

I SWEAR, I ONLY SAID IT
TO MAKE YOU MAD, RAY!

RAY, DON'T GO!

NO, PLEASE DON'T GO, RAY!

J.R. IS GONNA KILL YOU!

LUCY! LUCY, WHAT IS IT?

YOU'LL WAKE UP THE WHOLE HOUSE!

BOBBY GOT YOU.

I'LL BE DAMNED IF I
LET J.R. GET GARNET.

OH, RAY, PLEASE. DON'T!

NO, RAY.

[TIRES SCREECH]

LUCY, WHAT IS IT? WHAT?

IT'S J.R. AND
GARNET. I TOLD RAY!

YOU WHAT?

I TOLD HIM THAT THEY'RE
TOGETHER RIGHT NOW.

I'M SORRY. [SOBBING]

OH, DEAR GOD.

[DOOR OPENS]

Pam: BOBBY!

WHAT IS IT, DARLING?

J.R. IS WITH GARNET.

RAY'S GOING INTO TOWN AFTER HIM.

UH, DO YOU KNOW WHERE SHE LIVES?

IT'S ON BELLE CLAIRE,

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BLOCK,

AND IT'S CALLED THE PINES.

OK. DON'T WORRY.

GOOD NIGHT.

Garnet: OH, MY GOD.

HEY, RAY... OHH!

[COUGHS] HEY, TAKE IT EASY.

Garnet: STOP IT, BOTH OF YOU!

AAH!

Garnet: FOR GOD'S SAKE, RAY!

TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF HIM!

RAY, TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF HIM!

J.R.: GET HIM OFF!

AAH! RAY!

J.R.: GET HIM OFF ME!

RAY! BOBBY, GET HIM OFF!

RAY, STOP IT! GET OFF HIM!

[GRUNTING]

STOP IT!

NOW HOLD IT!

NOW, I DIDN'T COME
HERE FOR THAT.

Bobby: NOW THINK ABOUT IT.

ANYTHING YOU WANT, YOU BUY.

YOU THINK THERE'S NOTHING
YOUR MONEY CAN'T BUY YOU!

OH, YOU MAKE ME SICK!

I'M SICK TO HERE WITH YOU EWINGS

AND ALL OF YOUR MONEY.

I'M CLEARING OUT.

Garnet: I TOLD YOU HOW
IT WOULD BE, HONEY.

I TOLD YOU THERE
WERE THINGS I HAD TO DO.

YOU'RE NO BETTER THAN THEY ARE.

I GUESS IT'S JUST
LIKE YOU WANTED.

JUST YOU AND ME.

YEAH. EXACTLY.

THE CONTRACT'S LEGAL, J.R.

JUST DON'T TRY TO
GET OUT OF THAT,

OR EVERYONE WILL
KNOW ABOUT OUR LITTLE...

ARRANGEMENT.

RAY...

LOOK, I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL.

OH, SHEESH.

WHAT A STUPID THING TO SAY.

I KNOW, UH...

LOOK, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY,

BUT DON'T LEAVE SOUTHFORK.

LOOK, FORGET ABOUT J.R.

THERE'S JOCK TO THINK ABOUT,

AND HE'S NOT GONNA

TAKE LIGHTLY TO YOUR LEAVING.

I DON'T OWE HIM ANYTHING.

I'VE WORKED MY TAIL OFF FOR HIM!

LOOK, I'M NOT SAYING
YOU OWE HIM ANYTHING!

I'M SAYING HE WOULDN'T
WANT YOU TO GO.

SOUTHFORK IS YOUR HOME,

AND AS MUCH YOURS AS ANYBODY'S.

KREBBS...

I WANT YOU OFF
SOUTHFORK BY SUNUP.

I WAS GONNA LEAVE...

BUT I THINK I JUST CHANGED
MY MIND ABOUT THAT.

I'M STAYING NOW.

YOU WANT ME OFF THAT RANCH,

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE
TO GET JOCK TO FIRE ME,

IF YOU CAN.

BUT IT DON'T MAKE
NO DIFFERENCE TO ME

ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

ALL THESE YEARS,

YOU'VE BEEN SCREWING
AROUND WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES.

WELL, I DON'T WANT
ANY PART OF IT ANYMORE!

IT'S OVER WITH!

YOU SLIP UP JUST ONCE, J.R.,

AND I'M GONNA BE THERE

TO MAKE SURE YOU
NEVER GET UP AGAIN!

YOU UNDERSTAND?!

J.R... YOU HAVE
ONE UNHOLY KNACK...

FOR MAKING EVERY GOOD
FRIEND YOU EVER HAD

INTO AN ENEMY.

RAY?

YOU DON'T HAVE TO
LOOK SO WORRIED.

I ONLY CAME TO SAY I'M SORRY.

I REALLY AM... ABOUT LAST NIGHT,

ABOUT GARNET...
ABOUT EVERYTHING.

WILL YOU FORGIVE ME?

CAN WE STILL BE FRIENDS?

I DON'T HAVE VERY MANY FRIENDS.
