Dallas (1978–1991): Season 9, Episode 19 - Shadow Games - full transcript

Pam disappears and Matt is left for dead at the campsite in Colombia. Clayton realizes that it is time to sell Farlow Industries when he finds that Ellie has been secretly backing his losses.

While Pam is away
on that little jaunt south of the border...

...I have full authority
to run Ewing Oil as I see fit.

I think you're taking advantage
of an unusual situation.

- Did you ever know me not to?
- I'd hate to see you...

...and that pretty lady friend
of yours get hurt.

Just because you can't make ends meet
with that excuse of a company...

...doesn't give you the right
to drag my mama down.

I told you to stay in Athens
until it was time.

There isn't any more time, Angelica.

Pam!

Uh, no, no, senor.



Not una carta. No.

Un paquete. A package.

I'm looking.

I'm looking.

When were you expecting this package?

Ayer. Yesterday. Ayer.

Sometimes the mail is very slow
to arrive from the United States.

This package should have been sent
special delivery.

Oh.

Why didn't you say so?

I have a special delivery in the back.

Come on. Be there. Be there.

Sorry. There's nothing for you.

Maybe tomorrow.



Heh.

Damn it.

What are you up to, J. R?

Pardon?

Uh, nothing. Nada. Gracias.

Thanks.

I don't need to look it up, J.R.

I can quote you the bylaws
of Ewing Oil line and verse.

Humor me.

Of course, this provision doesn't apply
to situations of ill health.

Well, nobody's sick here.
Just let me know where I stand.

"In the event an active partner
or representative thereof...

...should absent himself
from the day-to-day duties of Ewing Oil...

...for a period exceeding three
consecutive business days...

...full right and authority
to carry out such business necessary...

...to the operation
and welfare of said company...

...shall pass to the remaining partner
or partners. "

So in other words, while Pam is away
on that little jaunt south of the border...

...I have full authority
to run Ewing Oil as I see fit.

That is correct.

And she has to accept any decision
I make in her absence?

Anything short of your selling
the company out from under her, yes.

Yeah, I know that, Harv.

I just wanna make sure I'm playing
by the book while she's away.

Well, now that you know
that you're playing it by the book...

...is there something specific
you want done?

Yes, as a matter of fact, there is.

I want you to formalize
these letters of agreement...

...between Ewing Oil, Marilee Stone,
Andy Bradley, and Jordan Lee.

Well, what is it?

I won't question your reasons for laying off
the Marinos deal on the cartel.

We still retain a healthy percentage
of the royalties.

But unless there's something wrong
with my calendar...

...these agreements were drawn up
while Pam was still in Dallas.

Now, I have to wonder why yours...

...is the only signature
for Ewing Oil that's on them.

Well, I tried to run it by her
before she left...

...but she was so caught up in preparing for
that trip with that loser friend of Bobby's...

...that she just didn't get around
to signing it, that's all.

Well, I'm running a business.
What the hell was I supposed to do?

All right, J.R.

I'll see that these agreements
are filed right away...

...but I have to tell you.

I think you're taking advantage
of an unusual situation.

Did you ever know me not to?
As soon as you can.

- Hey, Sly.
- Oh, J.R.

Uh, Mr. Erickson got here
a few minutes early.

- He's waiting for you in your office.
- Who's that?

Floyd Erickson?
From the brokerage house in Houston?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

All right. Hold my calls.

Okay. J.R., is Jack still planning on
meeting with you at the engineer's office?

Well, as far as I know.

Well, if he doesn't check in before that...

...would you mind telling him
that Grace called?

She made 12:30 reservations
for them at Melvin's...

...and she said if that's all right with
him, he doesn't need to call her back.

It seems to me they've been getting
together a lot for lunch these days.

I think this is the third time this week.

- All right. I'll see he gets that message.
- Okay.

- Mr. Erickson.
- Mm.

- Oh, Mr. Ewing. We finally meet.
- Yeah, yeah.

I really appreciate you coming by
while you're in town.

- Oh, no problem.
- Can I freshen up your coffee?

- No, no, it's fine.
- Please, please sit down.

Well...

Well, what can I do for you?

Actually, you've already done it.

You've been helping my mama
in a very sensitive business transaction.

Of course. The Hawkwood acquisitions.

Yeah, yeah, that's right.

I just want to check and see
if the whole deal is moving smoothly.

It's been my experience
that when word gets out...

...that the Ewings
are in the market to buy...

...well, the asking price
goes up quite a bit.

Well, we've gone to great lengths
to protect your mother's identity.

In fact, we forwarded one of our own
checks to Hawkwood's bank in Texas City.

There is no way anyone can find out
who the buyer is.

Hawkwood's bank, huh?

Would that be one
of Buck Childress' companies?

Uh...

...to tell you the truth, I don't know
who stands behind Hawkwood.

They've been as secretive
about this sale as your mother.

Well, I sure wish
you'd look into it for me.

I always like to know
who I'm doing business with.

I'll see what I can dig up.

I really appreciate it, and I'm looking
forward to our next meeting.

Did I get any messages today
from the States?

A telegram or a telex?
It would have originated in Dallas.

One moment.

Uh, nothing from the United States.

Just a message from Mrs. Ewing...

...telling you that she went out
to get a present for her son.

Damn. You're sure nothing else?

S?, senor.

Is something wrong?

Gracias.

A little early in the day to be drinking.

Even for you, Senor Cantrell.

Were you expecting this?

You look angry.

I prefer to open my own mail.

The package fell open
while I was bringing it to you.

Accidents happen, you know.

Now, tell me, why does a man
need to bring emeralds...

...into a country so famous
for exporting them?

I can't help you if I don't understand.

I don't recall asking for any help.

Have it your way.

I don't know what game it is you're playing,
but every game has its dangers.

I'd hate to see you and that pretty
lady friend of yours get hurt.

I think I can look
after both of us just fine.

I hope so, my friend.

I hope so.

I have a 12:30 reservation
with Mr. Ewing.

Ah, yes. He's already been seated.
Follow me, please.

Thank you.

Oh, Grace.

Uh, Jack, I'm afraid,
didn't get your message, but I think I have.

Would you join me, please?

- Enjoy your lunch.
- Thank you.

I didn't realize you had such an interest
in your cousin's personal life.

Well, if it's personal, I don't.
But that's not the case here, is it?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Why do I get the impression that Angelica
is trying to get around me through you?

Jack and I have become good friends.

Is there anything wrong with that?

No, as long as everyone understands...

...that the only person that's gonna
deliver Jack in this deal is me.

I assure you, my friendship
with Jack is totally innocent.

Hm. Honey, you look like a lot of things...

...but innocent is not one of them.

Look, I stand to lose very little if the rumors
about Dimitri's poor health are confirmed.

Angelica, on the other hand,
stands to lose an empire.

I'm well aware of what's at stake here.

Good, because Jack's uncanny
resemblance to the Greek tycoon...

...is the only thing that's gonna buy
Angelica the time she needs to reorganize...

...and I'm more than happy
to see it through.

All the way to the oil conference
in Martinique if I feel I'm needed.

But right now,
I feel that Angelica has other ideas.

You will let her know that I'm concerned,
won't you?

Of course.

Good.

Now that's out of the way, let's order
something very, very expensive, huh?

I'm lost, Bobby.

I'm trapped.

Everyone tells me
I'll get over you in time...

...but I'll never get over you.

I'll never get over the simple fact that all
you ever wanted was for us to be married.

I wanted that too.

You don't know how much.

And I hate myself...

...for all the things I let get in the way
of that ever happening...

...of all the terrible pain
that I caused you.

Oh, how can I make it go away?

Do you think...

...if I wished hard enough...

...I could go back?

Before... Before all the mistakes
were made.

I wanna go back, Bobby.

I just don't know
how to get there, Bobby.

Here, hold your hand out nice and flat.
All right.

He won't bite you. Nice and flat.

That's a girl.
See, I told you he wouldn't bite you.

Here, Stephen. Now, you hold up...
Hold it and nice and high for him.

There he goes. How about that?

Okay, Bob, put your foot right up here.
That's a boy.

Hold on the saddle. That's it. Up we go.

That's it. Hey, how you like that, huh?

- Yeah, it's good.
- All right.

- You ready to go for a ride?
- You betcha.

Okay, now Eddie's gonna take you
around over here to the stables.

As soon as I get these horses saddled up,
I'll bring your friends around.

We'll go find a trail to ride on, huh?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Go ahead, Eddie.

Okay, who wants to be next, huh?

Come on. Come on over here.

- What's your name?
Matt.

All right.

Oh, you know,
I really thank you for helping me.

I never would've been able
to have organized this all by myself.

It was a pleasure.

You know, watching you with the children
has really been wonderful.

- Very special.
I told you he wouldn't bite you.

They are special.

- Every single one of them.
There we go.

You know,
it's like Lee McKinley told me...

...you always get back more than you give,
and he was right.

They accept things so easily.

Their limitations, their talents.

They never look back.

I love every single one of them.

I know. It shows.

Well, what's this?

On behalf of all of us at Woodgrove...

...please accept this gift
as thanks for having us here.

Oh, that's lovely. Thank you.

Oh, that's wonderful.

Did you make this yourself?

Did you make this yourself?

Aha. Everyone helped.

Oh, it's so good.

It's so good.

Bless you. Thank you.

You thinking what I'm thinking?

Yeah.

She's spending more
and more time at Bobby's grave.

I don't wanna make more out
of this than there is...

...but if she doesn't snap out
of this mood pretty soon...

...somebody's gonna have to start thinking
about getting her some help.

Well, let's just keep a close eye on her
these next few days, okay?

Sounds like your mama better invest
in some piano lessons for you, son.

Hi, Uncle J.R.

Hey, Christopher. How you doing?
Where is everybody anyhow?

- Upstairs, getting ready for dinner.
- Oh.

Oh, yeah.

I guess you worked up
quite an appetite...

...playing with those little friends
came over visit you today.

I didn't play with them.

You didn't? Why not?

- I don't know.
- Hm.

You miss your mama, don't you?

She called me this morning
all the way from South America.

Is that right?

She sounds so far away.

Yeah.

Well, your mama will be back
before you know it.

Think of all the stories
she'll be able to tell you.

- Yeah.
- Ha, ha.

Come on. Let's go and see
what's holding up dinner, huh?

Hey, Teresa?

Anybody here?

I got to hand it to you, Pam.

I thought you'd be asking
for a breather by now.

Ha. It crossed my mind.

- When were you planning on taking a break?
Soon as we reach the top.

How long do you think?
Oh, I'd say three, four hours.

No problem.

Well, Bobby always said
you were one tough lady.

He had a lot of faith in you too.

And we're going to show J.R.
And everyone else...

...that faith wasn't misplaced.

Thanks.

Ewing residence.

Uh, who may I ask is calling?

One moment, please.

- Uh, it's a Mr. Erickson from Houston.
- All right. I'll take that.

Hello, Floyd?

I appreciate you getting back to me
so quickly.

Well, I got you an answer,
but I must admit you surprised me.

Oh?

Isn't Clayton Farlow married
to your mother?

Yes, he is.

Well, then I thought
you would've known.

Hawkwood Machinery
is one of Farlow Industries' companies.

They've been undergoing
severe financial pressure lately.

Yeah, you're right. I should've known.

Thank you, Floyd. I owe you one.

- Teresa?
- Yes, sir.

Mr. Farlow around?

Uh, I believe he's out on the patio.

- Clayton.
- Morning, J.R.

That's what you think. Where's Mama?

She's in town with Sue Ellen.

She's helping out with some of the
last-minute details of the fundraiser.

You know, I never thought much of you
as a businessman.

Now I don't think
you're much of a man at all.

- Listen here, J. R...
- No, you listen to me.

Just because you can't make ends meet
with that excuse of a company of yours...

...doesn't give you the right
to drag my mama down with you.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about Mama pumping money
into Farlow Industries...

...to the tune of $ 7 million,
maybe more, for all I know.

Well, I'm warning you, nobody takes
my mama for a ride, especially you.

Well, it's true.

Farlow Industries has fallen
on some hard times...

...but I never dreamed
of turning to Ellie for help.

You expect me to believe that?

I don't give a damn what you believe.

What is going on between you two?

I don't know, but I'm gonna find out...

...and don't you talk to your mama
about this until I get back.

What's all this?

Hey, I went out and rented
about every movie that was ever made.

Bambi?

Yeah. Hey, don't knock that
till you see it.

There's a scene in there,
gets me every time.

It's a scene between the mother and...

No, I'm not telling you.
You wait. You'll see.

Ha-ha-ha. I love you, Cliff.

I love you too. We got them all.

And now, I'm gonna go downstairs
and I'm going to pop us some popcorn.

- She can have popcorn, can't she?
- She sure can.

We're gonna spend the whole day together,
just watching Hollywood's finest.

Great.

Better yet,
I'll pop the popcorn for you two.

Oh, thank you, Linda.
She's sweet, isn't she?

- Uh-huh.
Oh, Mr. Barnes, I almost forgot.

Mrs. Ewing called.
I guess she missed you at your office.

Uh, my sister?

- Sue Ellen.
- Oh.

Uh, she wanted to thank you
for buying a table at the charity auction...

...and let you know she's sorry you
won't be able to attend but understands.

Cliff, why aren't you going tonight?

You know why I'm not going.
I'm not gonna leave you alone.

Linda's here with me.
It's important that you go.

- Cliff, I want you to go.
- No way.

Have you forgotten how much trouble...

...Graison Research went to
to try and save my life?

No, and I'm grateful to them for it.

Then you should go for both of us.
It's the least that we can do.

Please, Cliff?

All right.

Miss Ellie?

Hello, Donna.

It seems to me that yesterday you, uh...

You already had that down pat.

I wish.
There's just so many little nuances to it.

How'd everything go in town?

Oh, fine.

Sue Ellen has outdone herself.

Tonight's gonna be a great event.

Good.

Clayton had to take off
in a hurry this morning.

He said something
had come up in Houston.

- Did he say what?
- No.

Uh, he said he wasn't sure whether or not
he'd make it back in time for the auction...

...but he didn't want you to miss it
on his account.

I hope everything's all right.

I think everything's gonna be just fine.

Good.

You know, Donna, seeing how much
you enjoy working with those children...

...has made me wonder if you and Ray
have started thinking again...

...about having a family.

I don't think so.

You see, the baby that we lost...

...had Down syndrome.

Oh.

Oh, Lord.

It was real rough in the beginning...

...but we worked through it.

We found out a lot of things
about each other that we didn't even know.

We both wanted that baby real bad.

Oh, Donna.

I'm so sorry.

And all those things I said to you
when you came out of the hospital about...

About trying again.

There was no way
that you could have known.

But you know the important thing...

...is we have really come
to accept what happened...

...and I'm fine.

And Ray is fine.

But the biggest blessing of all
is these kids...

...because they have really helped me get
to where I am right now.

Look, would you look at these?
I'm scared to death.

You're gonna be terrific tonight.

The one and only time I've spoken in public
before there wasn't a dry eye in the place.

Jerry, that's what we want.

No, no. These were tears of laughter,
and I wasn't supposed to be funny.

It was a lecture on open-heart surgery.

There. You see what I mean?

- Oh, sorry. Am I interrupting anything?
No, not at all.

Hello, J.R.

I don't think the two of you have met.
Jerry Kenderson, my husband, J.R. Ewing.

- Oh, hello, doctor.
- Mr. Ewing.

- Good to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Well, I think I'll go practice my speech.
- That's the spirit.

Excuse me. Nice to meet you.
- Yeah. Yeah.

Well...

Well, uh,
I never thought I'd see the day...

...when I'd be asking my own wife
out for a date...

...but I'd, uh... I'd really like to escort
you to the auction tonight, Sue Ellen...

...if that's all right with you.
- You'd like to escort me?

Yeah. Well, after all,
you are my wife, you know.

Well, no, I mean, I'd be proud to.

I hardly know what to say.

Well, say yes.

Yes.

Oh, feels like we've been
climbing for hours.

Hang in there.

Another mile or so, it's all downhill
to where we make camp for the night.

I wasn't complaining.

I'm enjoying every minute of this,
just like I'm sure Bobby would have.

I'll bet.

I mean it.
It's so beautiful here, so peaceful.

That's one of the reasons
I like it here so much.

Me too.

That's when I knew that Mark was right.

Maybe it was time for me to get out
of private practice and into research.

Seriously, though, medical research is by
its very nature a painfully slow process.

One that must crawl for many years
before it can walk.

Occasionally, there are breakthroughs
of incredible proportion.

It's my hope and my dream...

...that some of those breakthroughs
will originate through Graison Research.

Thanks to all of you,
it's a very distinct possibility.

Your support is a key element...

...and your dollars
just may make a difference...

...in the quality of life on this planet.

I applaud your generosity.

I thank you for this evening.

I am honored by your presence.

God bless you, one and all.

- That wasn't so bad, was it?
- No.

Oh. Ha, ha.

Thank you very much, Dr. Kenderson.

Hello again.

I hope you all
are having a wonderful time.

And, uh, there's more yet to come.

And I'd like to remind
all you gentlemen...

...that there's one more round left
to the auction.

You didn't think I'd let you get off
that easy, did you? Ha, ha.

Well, I can see that all the women
seemed to be pleased.

So if you'll continue looking
at all the items up for bid...

...enjoy your dessert and your coffee
and have a wonderful time.

Thank you.

Excuse me. I'm gonna go to the bar
and get something to drink.

- Anybody want anything? Sue Ellen?
No, thank you.

I think Donna and I
are gonna try out the dance floor.

Mama, be sure and save a dance for me.

- I will, J.R.
Thank you.

Vodka with a twist and a Shirley Temple.

Shirley Temple? You're not
fading out on me, are you, Andy?

Ha, ha. No. Just trying
to keep the wife sober enough...

...to get out of this auction
with my shirt still on.

Ha, ha. Bourbon and branch.

I'd like to thank you again
for letting me in on the Marinos deal.

Looks like we're gonna be seeing
big profits by the end of the year.

Well, what are friends for anyhow?

Well, maybe I can return
the favor someday, huh?

Enjoy your evening.

Hey, Jordan.

J.R. Ah, let's have a little bourbon
on the rocks.

Say, that was, uh,
quite a gesture of yours...

...your donating the use of your suite
at the Texas stadium for Sunday.

Well, it's for a good cause.

Very good news from the Venezuelan coast,
isn't it?

Would I ever steer you wrong?

You know, I bet Andy and Marilee
would just about die...

...if they knew you'd let me in
on a piece of the action.

Ha, ha. Yeah, I reckon they would.

I apologize for making us late.

It looks as though
we've missed the main course.

That's all right.

Well, dessert is all that counts anyway.

- Shall we?
- No, thank you.

Is everything all right, Jack?

Yeah.

Sure.

Clayton sure picked a strange night
to go down to Houston.

- Any problem?
- Oh, no, not at all. Everything's fine.

I'm just so sorry he couldn't be here.

He would've been so proud
of what Sue Ellen's done.

Ha. He's not the only one.

Hello, Donna, Jenna, Ray,
good to see you.

Mark, this turned out
to be quite a party.

It has.
Jenna, how about the next dance?

No, thank you.

Oh, come on. Just one little dance?

A pretty girl like you shouldn't spend
a whole evening alone.

That's exactly what I should be. Alone.

Excuse me, please.

Don't let it bother you.
She's just not feeling well tonight.

Jenna?

- Hello, Jack.
- Are you all right?

- Yes, I'm fine.
Hello.

I'd like you to meet a friend of mine,
Grace. Grace, this is Jenna.

It's very nice to meet you.

I'm sorry, I was just on my way out
to get some fresh air.

An acquaintance of yours?

I'll be right behind you, Mama.

- I was hoping you'd save this dance for me.
- I was hoping you wouldn't push your luck.

Well, what was I to do?

Jack had already invited Grace
to the affair. It was unavoidable.

Blowing your little charade out of the water
may become unavoidable too, my dear.

Don't worry, J.R.

I'm not about to take your cousin
away from you.

- You've got my word.
- Well, thank you.

Now, shall we have that dance?

Oh, I'm terribly sorry. I, uh...
I saved this dance for my wife.

- Sue Ellen?
- Yes?

I don't believe you have met
Angelica Nero.

How do you do?
I've heard so much about you.

And I about you.
It's a pleasure we finally meet.

- Thank you.
- Very nice seeing you again.

- She seemed like an interesting woman.
- Mm-hm.

I don't want to talk about her.
I want to talk about you.

You've come a long way
in a very short period of time, darling.

What you've done here tonight
is just short of a miracle.

I'm proud of you, honey.
I just wanted you to know that.

Thank you, J.R.

Seems like you've got yourself
a new fan too.

- Who?
- Your boss, Dr. Kenderson.

- Jerry?
- Mm-hm.

We had a rough time working together
in the beginning, but, uh...

...well, I guess you could say
we've become good friends.

Oh. Ha, ha.

Well, it looks like it's your turn, big guy.

- You're a tough act to follow.
- Well, those are the breaks.

I'm not very big on speeches...

...but I am on gratitude and I wanna
take a minute to thank all of you...

...for turning out tonight.

You know, it's no secret
that, uh, Graison Research...

...represents a cause very near
and dear to my heart.

Probably has something to do with the fact
that I named it after myself.

Enough has been said for you to know that
the goals set for the research center...

...are worthy of your support,
and you have demonstrated that here...

...with your generous donations.

And as Jerry assured you,
and I assure you...

...your money will be well spent.

So again, my thanks to all of you.

Uh, right now, I'm most interested in,
uh, aside from getting down from here...

...see who's gonna walk away
with the rest of the merchandise...

...we have up here for auction.
So without further ado...

...I shall give the floor back to the
real star of this evening, Sue Ellen Ewing.

Thank you, Mark.

All right. We're in the homestretch.

And I believe the next item
in your brochure is number 62.

It's a full-length Russian lynx
coat, donated by Aladdin Furs.

Look at this. Isn't it beautiful? Heh.

And it's valued at over $ 100,000.

So come on.

Could we begin the bidding
at $ 10,000, please?

We have a $ 10,000 bid
from Andy Bradley.

- Donna?
Thank you, Andy.

I'm gonna go to the ladies' room.

Fifteen thousand it is.
As you can see...

You know, Ray...

...that coat would look very,
very nice on Donna.

- Well, thanks a lot, Miss Ellie.
Twenty-thousand dollar bid.

This is getting interesting.
Shall we push the bid to 30,000?

- She does have a point.
Thank you, Mr. Jacobs.

We are at 30,000. Any takers at 35?

- Thirty-five thousand.
Hi.

Forty?

Clayton, what on Earth are you doing?

I'm here to ask you the same question.

Oh, my.

You found out, didn't you?

Ellie, do you realize how I felt...

...when I learned that you were behind
all the buy-ups of my companies?

How long did you think
you could keep it a secret?

I didn't think that far ahead.

I was so worried about you, and I knew
you wouldn't come to me for help.

Would you have respected me if I had?

- I love you.
- That was never in question.

Well, what was?

I mean, you could have...
You could have at least opened up to me.

I couldn't, not about this.

Ellie, when we married,
I left a lot of things behind...

...so I could take up life
with you at Southfork.

I gave up Southern Cross, I left Houston...

I never wanted you to give up
anything to be with me.

I was glad to.

It was a small price to pay
to share our life together...

...but our life here is so tied to you.

The family, the ranch.

Well, I always thought
that you felt a part of it.

I do, but Farlow Industries is all I have
left that I can point to and say that's mine.

Do you understand that?

I worked so many years to make it
into something I was proud of.

It just hasn't been that easy to let it go,
even when I knew it was time.

Oh, Lord.

I guess I...

I guess I really made a mess
of things, didn't I?

- You have every right to be furious with me.
- No, I'm not furious with you.

I'm furious with myself.

I should've sold Farlow Industries
a long time ago.

It's not my life anymore. It's my past.

You're the only thing
that really matters to me...

...and I guess it took this little stunt
of yours to make me realize that.

I'm just sorry it was so long in coming.

Forgive me, Ellie.

Oh, Clayton.

I love you.

And God knows I love you.

I don't know what I'd do without you.

I'm surprised more of you...

...haven't joined at the bidding
of this fabulous crystal duck.

Thirty thousand.

- Forty.
- Ha-ha-ha.

Ah... Fifty thousand.

Sixty.

I have $60,000.

Well, we could bounce back and forth
like this all night.

So I think it's time we separate
the men from the boys.

I'll double Mr. Barnes' bid.
That'll be 120,000.

What's going on?

Nothing, nothing.
It's just Cliff and J.R. At it again.

The bid stands at $ 120,000.

- Did you say $ 120,000?
Uh, yes, that's correct.

Well, you can have it. Ha-ha-ha.

Sold to J.R. Ewing for $ 120,000.
Thank you.

Sue Ellen, uh, I'd like to donate
that beautiful piece of sculpture...

...back to the auction
and give Mr. Barnes over there...

...another opportunity
to take it home with him tonight.

We accept your generous donation.

Now, could I open the bidding again?

- We'll open with $5,000.
- Well, worked up quite a thirst.

If you'll excuse me, Mama.

Terrific. Thank you, Mr. Potts.

You two sure seem awful happy
about something tonight.

Glad you could make it, Clayton.

Okay, Ray.
Everything's all straightened out.

- Did you tell Ray?
- Mm.

Lts qualities...
- So did I.

Fifteen thousand.

Mr. Wineman has given us
a bid of 15,000.

I just wanted to wish you good night.

Is everything okay?

Nothing that a hot bath
and a king-size bed couldn't fix.

Well, we covered a lot of ground today.

We should make the mine
by noon tomorrow.

I can't wait.

- Good night, Pam.
Matt?

You know, taking this trip like this,
doing what Bobby would've done...

...it really feels right.

It's, um, funny.

Sometimes I think that I can
actually feel his presence with us.

Yeah. Me too.

- Good night.
- Good night.

You men better get some rest.
You earned it.

I'm gonna go take a swim
down in the river.

Careful, Senor Cantrell.

Water's very cold this time of year.

I'll be careful.

Thank you.

I just want to share a few words
with you, if you don't mind.

- When I accepted Mark Graison's offer...
- Nicholas.

What are you doing here in Dallas?

I told you to stay in Athens
until it was time.

There isn't any more time, Angelica.

I flew all day to get here because...

Because what?

Dimitri is dead.

It's over.

Don't you see? It's over.

Again, I would like to thank you
all for your participation.

The auction is over but, uh, not the night.

There's enough food, drinks,
and music to take us into the morning.

So after our people have arrived
at a final accounting...

...I will announce how much money
we have raised at what I hope...

...is the first annual fundraiser
for Graison Research.

May I have a moment, Mrs. Ewing?

Of course.
Thank you.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

My name is Angelica Nero.

It would be improper of me to accept
the gracious hospitality of Dallas...

...without giving something back
in return.

We at Marinos Shipping
greatly appreciate...

...how the oil community
has opened its doors to us.

I have just gotten off of the phone
with our chairman, Dimitri Marinos...

...who sends you his very best regards
and would like you to know...

...that his health
is greatly improving by the day.

To celebrate his good fortune
and this worthy cause...

...a check for $ 1 million
is on its way to Graison Research.

Thank you very much, Ms. Nero.

And one more thing
before the music resumes.

No one person wanted to be here
this evening...

...more than Pamela Ewing.

But circumstances
have taken her out of the country.

She also sends her regards
and she thanks you as I do...

...for making this one very special evening
for Graison Research.

Thank you.

Pam.

Pam!

Pam!
