Dallas (1978–1991): Season 5, Episode 18 - Anniversary - full transcript

Believe it or not.
He's been thoughtful, warm.

- I'd be very careful if I were you.
- I think he's changed.

You can solve everything by...
By being a Krebbs again.

- J.R...
- Forget the Ewings and forget Ewing Oil.

Give me your proxy
for those 10 voting shares.

Well. At least now I know
how you have been spending your time.

I miss you. Sue Ellen.

Yeah. Sure I know it's Sunday.

Like I told you a couple of days ago.
Chester. This is very important to me.

Yeah. But I didn't hear from you.

And time is running out
and I need that film right now.



Well. How would I know if it's
on videotape? You're the expert in this.

How you doing. Bud?

All I know... It was shot in 1967.

I don't care what it costs.
Hire a couple of extra men.

Hire an army. I'll pick up all expenses.
You know that.

I want you to find it, and
I want you find it real soon. Hear?

Chester. Soon.

The lawyer said there wasn't much
to the court hearing.

He just gives the judge
some documents...

and the judge grants us
temporary custody.

I thought there would be
more to it than that.

After all. We don't add
a new Ewing to the family every day.

It may be special to us. Mama...

but I think it's pretty routine
to the legal profession.



I know someone
who won't find it routine:

Pamela.

She's waited a long time.

Yeah. I guess she has.
Come on. Let's join her and Lucy.

Eight. Nine. Ten. up.

Okay. Over. Stretch out.

Oh. That's good. Okay. Back over.

- Lots of stretching. Lucy.
- Oh. I'll say. It hurts.

I didn't know how out of shape I was till
I started working out with Liz and Jackie.

What have we got going on here?

Oh. Well. I'm teaching Lucy aerobics.
It's the newest craze.

Women are even skipping lunch
to work out in places all over Dallas.

Come on. Grandma. Give it a try.

Not on your life.

Oh. Come on. Miss Ellie.

No. I think I'll stick
with my bicycle, thank you.

Well. Look there. John Ross.
Got the whole family waiting to see you.

- Hi. John Ross.
- Hi.

The sight of you ladies is enough to snap
a man's eyes open in the morning.

I remember when snapping your eyes
open was quite a chore for you.

Nothing like a little brotherly love
on a Sunday morning. Huh?

I've gotta go into Braddock
and do some errands.

Would you look after the boy for a while?

You wanna play with
Grandma for a while?

- Bye.
- Yeah. There you go.

I'll see you later. Buddy.

Well. Now. John Ross. What'll we do?

You wanna walk down to the stables?

Maybe we can pet the horses.

Come on.

Yeah.

Hello. Ray.

What the hell do you want?

Well. I've had warmer greetings before.

You gonna ask me in?

Say. You running the ranch
by phone nowadays. Are you?

You want something here. J.R...

or did you just coming around
to poison the air?

Ray. You're in real trouble, buddy.

What's that to you?

Well. Not much really. But Mama.
She's real disappointed in you.

Say. You remember
we used to run around a little...

when I was a Ewing
and you were a Krebbs.

And everyone was comfortable.

Shall I build you another one
or you got your buzz on?

What do you want. J.R.?

Hell. I think I can help you
straighten your life out.

I'll bet.

You know. Fact is. You're a lot smarter
than I ever gave you credit for.

Now. Is that supposed to be
some kind of compliment?

You know. Bobby and Mama and Daddy.
They believe you're a... A real Ewing.

And all along. You knew you weren't.

You knew you didn't have
the makeup of a Ewing or the style.

And I knew it too.

Would you just leave me alone?

Ray. .-

you're a Krebbs.
You always have been.

And your big problem started when
you found out you had Ewing blood.

So that's it, huh?

Would you like some
of your Ewing blood back?

No. no.

I'm trying to help a man
who's down-and-out.

I'm trying to help him get back
in his own good graces.

Yeah. That'll be the day.

You can solve everything by...
By being a Krebbs again.

Maybe leaving Southfork
and going back to Kansas.

I don't know.
Checking out your mama's family.

Digging up your own real roots.

- J.R...
- Forget the Ewings and forget Ewing Oil.

Give me your proxy
for those 10 voting shares.

That's your last tie to my family.

You'll be free then.

Really free, Ray.

Just get out of here.

All right.

Think about what I said. Will you?

I'm right. You know I'm right.

Yeah. Those are the ones. Yep. That's it.

Okay. Now look. You all just relax because
I've got everything under control.

It's gonna be one of the best
Chinese meals you've ever tasted.

We're just going to set the table. Cliff.
You can do all the rest.

Anyway. Like I was saying.
I'm doing pretty well at the station.

It's gonna be a while
before I can even anchor a show.

Now. Katherine. Don't you start talking
about moving back to New York.

Do you have any chopsticks?

No. No chopsticks.
Don't need chopsticks.

You use chopsticks.
You get cramps in your hands.

Mother. Do you see
what your son is doing?

I knew we should have eaten out.

Oh. He's serving us leftover food
from a doggie bag.

That's not leftover food. It's new food.

This is your idea
of a great Chinese meal?

No. Don't judge.
Just wait till you taste this.

- What is the wok for?
- What is the wok for?

The wok is for authenticity.
I need that soy sauce.

Oh. no.

Hold that. Okay. Stir that. Please.

- Keep it from burning.
- What do I do with it?

Hello. Cliff Barnes.

My name is Hampton. Mr. Barnes.

Wally Hampton, Old Coal Industries.

Wally Hampton?

Yes. What can I do for you?

Well. I surely am sorry
to be bothering you on a Sunday.

- It's no bother.
- Well, good.

Mr. Barnes, I'm gonna be down in Dallas
the day after tomorrow.

I would appreciate it
if you could spare me an hour.

I got a little business
I'd like to talk over with you.

Absolutely. Yes.
I'll rearrange my schedule.

Well. That's right kind of you.

I'll give you a call when I land.
Looking forward to seeing you.

Be my pleasure.

- What was that all about?
- That was Wally Hampton.

Chairman of the board of Old Coal
Industries. He wants to meet with me.

I guess your work at Wentworth
has been noticed.

Kind of looks like that.

- Did he say what he wants?
- No. He didn't say.

But he controls one of the largest
conglomerates in the Southwest.

So it can only mean a major business deal
for Wentworth Tool and Die.

Excuse me. Wait a moment.
You must have the wrong address.

No. No. It's the right address.

Just set up...
Right there's fine. Fine.

J.R.. what are you doing?

Well. John Ross and I
were discussing things...

how you've been sitting home alone.

And we thought to have a nice.
Quiet little family intimate dinner...

would be just the thing
to end the day.

- No. J.R.. I don't think so.
- Now. I know how you feel.

But it's just that I get so depressed
after I drop John Ross off.

I'd like to stretch the day out
longer. I'll leave after dinner. I promise.

No. I just don't think it's a good idea.

Well. You are planning on eating.
Aren't you?

Yes. Yes. Of course. But...

Well. We could go out if you want to.
That's simple enough.

I'll tell you what.

We can set up all that stuff out
on the patio, out there. What do you say?

Sue Ellen. Listen here.

I just want you to smell this.

Now. If you turn that down. You've
forgotten what good food is all about.

That right, John Ross?

Well. It does look good.

Well. It's just what I told you. Isn't it?

Way to a lady's heart
is through her catering service.

Sue Ellen. No fooling.

I'd like for our boy to have
dinner with the family. He misses that.

And so does his daddy.
What do you say?

All right.

Well. Thanks.

- Hello.
- Miss Ellie, it's Danna.

Are you home?

No. I'm still in Laredo and I have
got a ton of research material.

You know. I think Sam knew everybody
west of the Mississippi.

Well. I'm not surprised.

Listen. I'm coming home tomorrow...

and I'm having a hard time getting
in touch with Ray. Have you seen him?

Not today. But I'll let him know if I do.

Well. Look. Don't worry about it.

He probably doesn't care
that much anyway.

I'll call you as soon as I get in, okay?

Fine. And Donna.
I'll expect you for dinner. All right?

Yes. Ma'am. Bye-bye.

Everything's in order. Mr. Ewing.
The hearing is set.

It'll be a week from tomorrow
at 10 in the morning...

at the Braddock County Courthouse.

All right. I'll be there.

We will need that affidavit. Of course.
The one from the natural mother's sister.

- Have you spoken to her?
- Not yet.

Mr. Eccles. The truth is...

the sister is Sue Ellen Ewing.
My ex-sister-in-law.

I see.
Why didn't you tell me that before?

I thought I might be able
to avoid some embarrassment...

in case we didn't
need the affidavit.

Anything else you haven't told me?

No. Sir.

The judge will find that affidavit useful.
I advise you to get it. You've got a week.

All right. She only has to approve of us
as the adoptive parents. Isn't that right?

And very important. She has to state...

she has no knowledge
of the whereabouts of the natural father.

Okay.
-

One other thing. My wife may not be able to
make it to the hearing. Ls that all right?

Most mothers wouldn't miss it...

but if she can't get away. All the law
requires is that one of you be there.

Thank you very much.

Sly. Can you come in here a minute?

Yes, sir.

Oh. Have you heard anything
from Chester...

about that TV film
I've been looking for?

No. Sir. Not a thing.

I don't understand this.

I have to have that film
and I need it now.

Anything I can do to help?

Yeah. Get on the phone.
Put some pressure on him.

He owes me some favors.
He ought to drop everything.

And if you don't get
any immediate results...

call him every two hours.
Bug him till he finds it.

All right.

Ewing Oil. Just a moment.

This man says you're expecting his call.
His name's Harry.

Oh. Yeah. That's all. Thank you.

Okay.
-

Hello. Harry.

I'm calling like you asked me to.

- Is he there?
- He just walked in.

- Only call me if he leaves.
- Okay.

Hello.

Hello, Mama.

Yes. J.R.. what is it?

Well. It's about dinner tonight.
Something's come up at the office.

I gotta stay in town.

- Oh, I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry too. I really am.

It's just unavoidable.

All right, J.R.
Thanks for calling. Bye-bye.

Bye.

You know what
I was just thinking about. Ray?

- Give me that damn thing.
- No.

Come on. You're gonna break it.

I was just thinking about the time
Hoopers Pond froze over.

You remember? Couple years ago.

You drove your truck
right onto the ice to see if it'd hold.

I remember.

Well. It didn't hold.
It broke right through.

It took us the whole weekend
to thaw out. Do you remember?

Mr. Barnes, Mr. Hampton is here.

Oh. Yes. Yes. Marie. Send him in.

Mr. Barnes, this is Mr. Hampton.

Mr. Hampton. It's a pleasure to meet you.

- Mine.
- Thank you. Marie.

Doggone.

Beautiful office. Mr. Barnes.

- I can see you're a man of taste.
- Thank you.

- Do you drink this time of day?
- No. Son.

I generally start a whole lot earlier.

Why don't you pour me a little
of that bourbon. No water. No ice.

You know. Mr. Barnes, I've been hearing
me some marvelous things about you.

About what you've been doing down
here at Wentworth Tool and Die.

You know. This little old outfit
was just about stagnating...

till you come along
and started churning up the waters.

Son. You're doing one hell of a job here.

Don't mind telling you.
I'm rightly impressed.

- I'm pleased to hear that. Mr. Hampton.
- Mr. Hampton is my daddy.

I am just plain Wally.

Wally. I'm Cliff.

Thank you.

Now. I need to know what I can do
for Old Coal Industries.

Well. Son. You can do
something for me personally.

I think you can do a great
deal for yourself.

What is that?

Well. Old Coal is gonna be needing
itself a new chief operating officer.

And from what I hear...

- you're the man for that job.
- A chief operating officer?

I know that with your proven abilities
and your connections...

that you're likely to wind up
head of Wentworth Industries.

It's gonna take you a few years.

Now. At Old Coal. You gonna be top dog.

Right now.

I don't know.
Old Coal Industries is a giant.

- I'm surprised. I'm flattered.
- Flattered?

Boy. I'm gonna triple your present salary.

Usual bonuses...

very heavy expense account.

Because I don't like to see my people
get hurt too much tax-wise.

I suppose you'd want me to relocate?

Why. Sure.

But. Son. Tulsa's a wonderful city.

Nice folks. Lots of things to do.
You're gonna love it up there.

There is someone in Dallas
I really would hate to leave behind.

Well. You're not a married man.

She must be a very special lady.

Well. Hell. Son. Fly her up there.

Or you fly down to see her.

I'm mean. You're gonna have
your own damn jet anyway.

Cliff. It's a marvelous opportunity.

I want you on that Old Coal team.

Now. Son...

I'm gonna have to have
a quick decision on this...

because if ain't gonna be you
it's gonna have to be somebody else.

I got to fill me that position.
I gotta fill it fast.

Okay.
-

It's a compelling offer, Mr. Hampton.

Wally. Please.

Let me hear from you, son.

Real soon.

Bye-bye.

Well. It has been some time
since Pamela's worked.

And although she has a lot to do.
There's a chance she could get bored.

I think you're right.

Pam's not the kind of woman
that could be just a mother.

No matter how much she loves
Christopher, she needs to work.

Well. I talked to her
about coming to the store...

but she didn't
wanna leave Christopher.

Well. That's what I wanted
to talk to you about.

I thought maybe
you might have a solution.

Well. There are places. You know.
Where women can take children to work.

But not The Store?

I'd love it. But Harrison Page.
He's not that much into women's lib.

Well. There must be something.

I think it'd do her a world of good
to get back to work.

How about a business of her own?

Doing what?

Anything she'd like. That way
she can take Christopher with her.

I was rather hoping I could
find something in the next week or so.

Well. Then buy her a business.

Something that's already operating.
Something that she'd like.

That's not such a bad idea.

Mr. Bobby Ewing. With your resources...

you could put her to work
tomorrow if need be.

That's quite an offer.

Can you imagine what Digger
would think if he were alive.

How proud he'd be.

His own son running a company
bigger than Ewing Oil.

I'm sure he'd be very proud of you.

Have you made a decision?

- No.
- It must be very tempting for you.

I'd have to leave Wentworth.

Look. You've done a fine job
since you came here...

but the tool and die division
would survive.

I would have to move to Tulsa.

I know.

A few months ago
that would've worried me a lot.

You know. When I asked you
to take over Wentworth Tool and Die...

it was partly
so that you could be close.

I wanted us to build a relationship
that we'd never had.

I know.

- I think we've accomplished that. Cliff.
- Oh. I think we have.

I wish you could stay in Dallas...

but Tulsa's not that far away.

Especially if you could fly down
sometimes on one of your private jets.

What I'm trying to say. Cliff.
Is the decision is yours.

If you want this job.
I'm behind you all the way.

- Thank you.
- Just promise me one thing.

No matter how good it sounds.
Check it out thoroughly.

Mama. You read my mind.

- I'm so glad you flew in. Clayton.
- Me too.

How's Dusty?

Getting along real fine.

And he's feeling all right?

Seeing him up on those broncs.
You'd never know he'd been injured.

He finished third in the all-around.

I'm so glad.

Making him happy.

I would have preferred
a different way. I guess.

Now. What about you?

I was a little concerned
the other day when we talked.

I almost cancelled the Montana trip.

Clayton. You are so sweet. But I'm...
I'm really glad that you didn't.

Things around here
haven't been too bad, actually.

J.R. has eased off.

Believe it or not.
He's been thoughtful, warm...

generous.

There's no bitterness at all.

He says he wants the relationship
to look good in front of John Ross.

You suppose that's what
he really wants?

I don't know.

I'd like to think so.

We both know J.R.

I'd be very careful if I were you.

Maybe you're right.
But I think he's changed.

Sue Ellen. You're on your own
for the first time.

You're not used to it.

To making all your own decisions.

You're seeing life differently.

And you may be seeing J.R. differently.

And remembering only the good things
about your marriage to him.

Maybe.

Sue Ellen...

I realize how lonely
you must be at times.

I know how vulnerable you are.

Well. You may be right.

But I still think he's different.

Maybe it's because he lost his daddy.

I don't know.

Just be careful.

Well. I'd better be going.

Not again.

I've got early rounds in the morning.

Well. You can go
to the hospital from here.

I can't do it. Evelyn.

I don't understand.

We care about each other.

It was wrong for me
to go to bed with you.

Because of Lucy?

We're still husband and wife.

Only because you haven't
torn up the paper yet.

Mitch. It's right for us.

Evelyn. Lucy and I
have a lot of things to sort out...

and this would just complicate them.

Try to understand.

I'll call you tomorrow, okay?

Messenger just brought this
for you. J.R.

It came from the videotape service.

Oh. Chester finally
came through. Did he?

Is it all right if I go home now?

Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead.

- Hello.
- Sue Ellen, it's me.

- J.R.
- Sue Ellen...

I got something I wanna show you.

What is it?

Well. I can't really
tell you on the phone.

I'd like to come over to your place. Say.
The day after tomorrow. In the evening.

Why are you being so secretive?

Is this one of your tricks?

No. No. It's not a trick, I swear.

Please. It's really important to me.

Well. All right. I guess.

Fine. I'll be there.
Seven o'clock sharp.

I'll get it.

- Hello.
- Hello, may I speak tn Lucy?

This is Lucy.

Evelyn Michaelson.
We met once. With Mitch.

Remember?

Yes. Tennis. I remember.

I'd like to see you, Lucy.

- For what?
- Tu talk. About Mitch.

- Do we have something to talk about?
- I think we do.

Will you meet me?
Let's say tomorrow for lunch.

Please?

- Okay.
- Good.

One o'clock at the Summer Hill.

- All right. I'll be there.
- Thank you.

Hello. Lucy.

Are you all right?

I guess.

Well. Something's wrong. What is it?

I just got a phone call
from Evelyn Michaelson.

Well. Do I know her?

She's a friend of Mitch's.

She's more than a friend.

Grandma. I'm scared.

She wants me to meet her for lunch.
What am I gonna say to her?

Well. First of all. Calm down.

I've seen her before.

She's so much older than I am.
And she's beautiful.

She's“ She's a woman.

And what are you? A little girl?

Well. That's what I think
most of the time.

Well. That's what you've gotta get out
of your head. Because you're not.

You're a woman too.
A married woman.

But if you wanna remain married...

you may have to fight
a little harder than you have been.

Grandma. I don't know
how to fight this.

Lucy. You and Mitch have been
letting things ride for a long time now.

You're gonna have to decide
whether you really want Mitch back.

After that. You'll...
You'll figure out what you have to do.

I'm not sure what to say.

Just give me a number.

You must have thought about it some
time or another, people usually do.

I haven't.

You've never thought about selling?

It never crossed my mind.

- The business is only two years old.
- I know that.

And it's the best operation in Dallas.

Well. I wouldn't want it if it weren't.

One thing puzzles me. Mr. Ewing.

You could just as easily start
another one yourself.

Be a lot cheaper.

Well. I don't have time for that...

and I don't have to worry
about the expense.

I wanna buy into
a going concern, and a good one.

And yours fits the bill.

I wanna buy it now.

You're a very impressive man.
Mr. Ewing.

Thank you.

Can we find a price?

I don't know yet.

I'll have to talk with my accountant.
He'll call you this afternoon.

It won't be cheap.

I didn't think it would be.

But you make sure he calls. I'd like
to wrap this up in the next day or two.

- All right.
- Thank you.

Oh. Sweetheart.
I've got something for you.

- You do?
- Oh. Something very special.

Well. What is it?

- I'm not gonna tell you.
- Oh. Come on. Where is it?

Is it downstairs?

- You'll find out tomorrow. Come on.
- Why did you tell me today?

So you'd have something
to look forward to. That's why.

Tell me what it is.

No. You've heard everything
you're gonna hear until tomorrow.

Come on. I hear the sound
of a drink being poured.

Here you are. Mama.
Well. Lucy. Don't look so glum.

Don't you know rich folks
are always happy?

I don't need any of your
words of wisdom. Thank you.

You are in a mood tonight. Aren't you?

- Hello. Everybody.
- Donna.

- Welcome home.
- Oh. Thanks. Miss Ellie.

- I hope I'm not late.
- You're just in time for a drink.

It's just what I need.
I have a splitting headache.

You know. I think I have done more
reading in these past few days...

than in my entire
four years of college.

Is that for the new Sam Culver book?

You think the world's ready
for another Sam Culver book?

Well. Apparently.

The first one's been on the bestseller list
for quite some time now.

Nobody ever went broke underestimating
the intelligence of the American public.

- Would you like the usual. Donna?
- Please.

I guess Ray wasn't home
when you got there.

- No.
- I haven't...

I haven't heard from him. Either.

Thank you. Teresa.
I guess we can go in.

What do you think you'll do?

- About Ray?
- Yes.

Oh. I don't know.

Hang in. I guess.
Unless things get too much worse.

Ray will come around.
I'm sure he will.

Hey. Donna...

I'd like to apologize
for what I said back there.

It was uncalled for.

I know you and Ray
are having a tough time right now.

I'm sorry I needled you the way I did.

- Here we go. Donna.
- Thanks. Bobby.

You're welcome.

Oh. This looks good.

You know. If you move to Tulsa...

there aren't gonna be
many evenings like this.

We can toast the sunset
30.000 feet up in my private jet.

How you do love
the trappings of luxury.

I do. Because I was
without them for too long.

Any word on your
investigations into Old Coal?

No. Just a preliminary report.

I have an industrial
investigator working on it.

The company is
in sound financial shape.

They have merger plans
that are very solid...

and they're checking on the personnel.

Sounds good so far.

Certainly does.

- Hello.
- Mrs. Krebbs?

Yes. This is Mrs. Krebbs.

I'm sorry to bother you. Ma'am.
But I'm the manager...

of the Starbright Motel
out in Braddock.

And... Well, your husband's
out here. Ma'am...

in one of our rooms.

My husband?

Yes. Ma'am. He...
Well. He's in pretty bad shape.

I wonder if you can
come out and get him.

Oh. Yes. Sure. I'll be right there.

Thank you.

- Appreciate it.
- Yes. Sir.

Donna.

Well. At least now I know
how you have been spending your time.

Donna.

- Well. The cat's out of the bag now.
- It sure as hell is.

Hey. You can't say you didn't want
something like this to happen.

What are you talking about?

Everybody in town has seen
you and me together.

You think I meant to hurt her?

No.

But. Ray. We never even tried to hide.

Look where we are now.

In a motel in Braddock.
With your truck parked out front.

Don't tell me you didn't
want her to find out.

Ray. Am I wrong?

No.

She has no choice
but to leave me now.

Okay. Stretch
and over. And over. And down.

Okay. Time for aerobics.

And one. Two. Three. Four.

Smile. Ladies. Come on.

Bye-bye. Sally. See you tomorrow.
And arms. One, two...

three. Four. And back.

Two. Three. Four...

- one. Two. Three. Four. And...
- What do you think?

Where's my surprise?

Well. This is it.

Well. What am I
supposed to be surprised at?

Well. Honey. Don't you like it?

- Well. Sure. It's fine.
- Lt's bright and airy and...

Come here.
I wanna show you something.

A nursery?

Do you think he'll like it?

Who?

Christopher, honey. Do you think
he's gonna like this...

- when he comes with you to work?
- Oh. Honey. What's going on?

Here.

It's yours.
You're in the body-building business.

Oh. Bobby!

- Hello. Lucy.
- Hello.

Would you care for something
to drink. Mrs. Michaelson?

Yes. Chablis. Please. Gordon.

- And you. Miss?
- Oh. No. Thank you.

Well. I'm sure you know
why I wanted to talk.

My interest in Mitch is serious.

Well. I really don't see
what there is to talk about.

Mitch is my husband.

Legally. Yes.
But do you want him?

Well. That's a dumb question.

No. It's not. Because I want him.

Aren't you a little bit old
to be chasing after my husband?

Lucy. Nobody's chasing anybody.

I care about Mitch.

Nothing can come of that
as long as you're in the picture.

Do you want him?

Of course I want him.

I don't believe that.

Otherwise. You'd be living together.

Look. Mitch and I have some problems.
But we're still married.

Lucy. Marriage is more than
an interlude before divorce.

I think it's time we got on
with our own lives.

You and he aren't compatible.

You're from different worlds.

Mitch and I would be much better
for each other.

But you're years older than he is.

I could make him happy.

I already have.

Mitch told me you two
had never slept together.

He just didn't wanna
hurt your feelings.

Hi.

Thanks for letting me
come here. Sue Ellen.

Well. I wish I understood
what this was all about.

In just a minute.
Here. These are for you.

Flowers.

Certainly do baffle me. J.R.

Yeah. Well. Wonderful.

We do have something to celebrate.

- What?
- Hell. I didn't think you'd remember.

Don't rush it. Enjoy the anticipation.

I'd appreciate it
if you made me a drink.

I have something
very special to show you.

All right.

- Yes.
- Roger.

- Lucy.
- Roger. Can I come in?

What's wrong?

Well. I'm sorry.

No. No. That's all right.
That's all right.

I've been driving around for hours.

What happened?

It's my husband.

I don't know what to do.

How could he?

He's been sleeping with this other
woman and telling me that he wasn't.

Damn him. Making me look
like such a fool and...

Roger. I'm sorry
to barge in on you like this.

I guess I just needed
someone to talk to.

- Are you sure?
- What?

Are you sure that's what you wanted?
Just to talk.

Yes. Just to talk.

I could kill him.

I wouldn't let him get away with it.

Roger.

You have to get back at him. Lucy.

You didn't come here just to talk.

Not at this hour.

Here is Miss Fort Worth.
Tracy Grant.

Tracy is 22 years old,
5 feet, 8 inches tail with blond hair.

A senior at Texas Christian University.

Lovely, just lovely.

Miss Corpus Christi. Mary Lou Barnes.

Mary Lou is 20 years old,
a S-foot-S-inch brunette...

and an art major
at Corpus Christi Junior College.

From Austin,
we have Sue Ellen Shepard.

Twenty years old,
5-foot-7-and-a-half-inch brunette.

She is a senior
at the University of Texas.

And the eyes of Texas are upon her.

Can you imagine?
That was 14 years ago tonight.

Fourteen years.

You haven't changed a bit.

Not to me.

You went to a lot of trouble for that.

Oh. Just the research.

But why? I don't understand.

Well. I didn't think you'd remember.
But that pageant is where we first met.

I was one of the judges.

It was the first time
I set eyes on you, Sue Ellen.

I got to thinking last week. You know.
With the divorce and everything.

Well. You know.
My alarm-clock mind for dates.

And it just started me thinking
about the old days.

Did you? And?

I miss you. Sue Ellen.

I wanted to be with you tonight.

My life just hasn't been
the same without you.
