Dallas (1978–1991): Season 9, Episode 30 - Hello... Goodbye... Hello - full transcript

That billion dollar loan
is costing you almost $ 2 million a week.

I know that.

When this little crunch is over I'm gonna
remember the people who stuck by me.

My company is in trouble
and I just don't know what to do about it.

Graison's father got him out of it.

- I could still take him to trial.
- You sure could.

You think you can stand
living with just one woman?

As long as it's you.

J. R? I have Alex Garrett on Line 1.

Hello, Alex. J.R. Here.

How am I?
I'm terrible, and you know why.



Yes, I shut down my stripper wells,
but that's hardly the same thing.

Now listen to me, Alex.

We can produce that Venezuelan oil
for under $5 a barrel.

Even if we have to sell at 12 or 13,
we're gonna make a hell of a profit.

Yes, I expect prices to go up soon.

It doesn't matter whether or not
I am in financial trouble.

I want those wells uncapped,
and right now.

I know all about the contract,
and I don't give a damn.

I want those wells to start pumping.

Alex, I'm warning you. You're making
a mistake doing this to Ewing Oil.

- What is it?
Bud McKay, J.R.

All right, send him in.

J.R.

Bud, what can I do for you?



You asked me to check
into Crowley's company.

- I've got some good news.
- Crowley, now who's that?

Jimmy Crowley. Wanted you
to diversify into wind farms with him.

Yeah, yeah. Well,
I felt his company was cash-poor.

Oh, it is. He's got a lot of oil reserves
on his land...

...but with the drop in prices,
he can't afford to bring anything up.

- What's the bottom line?
- I think you can buy him out...

...lock, stock and oil reserves,
for around 30 million.

Thirty million? That's a good price.

It is. J.R., it's a great investment
for the future.

Yeah, you're right.

I'm gonna pass on this.

- Why?
- It doesn't matter why.

I'm just gonna pass on it.

Thank you, Bud. You did a good job.

Right, J.R.

Damn, that would have been a good buy.

Morning.

Good morning.

You left awful early.

Yeah. I didn't feel like talking
to anybody at breakfast.

- Hey, I'm hurting too.
- I know it, honey.

But it wasn't your fault
we got turned down for adoption.

It wasn't anybody's fault.
It just didn't happen.

Maybe we just weren't meant
to have children.

I don't believe that.

I think...

I think that you and I
have too much love to offer...

...not to be parents.

- What are we gonna do about it?
- We're gonna figure something out.

Now, I don't know what exactly,
but I am not giving up on it.

I'm not gonna let them do this
to Tony and us.

Now you're talking.
That's the Ray Krebbs I married.

Let's go on back to the house
and start making some phone calls.

There's gotta be somebody
that can help us.

That's right.

We have contributors
coming from all around the world.

- I'll have the menu for you tomorrow.
- Fine, anything else?

Yeah, can we get anything to eat?
I'm starving.

Ha, ha.
- Of course.

- Take any of the tables, I'll talk to the chef.
- Great.

Mark, I know this is a very important
affair for you and I don't want to upset it.

It sounds like there's a "but" coming.

There is.

I was wondering, um...

...if it would bother you
if I brought J.R. With me.

Well, I'm not his biggest fan...

...but I guess if that's what you want,
it's okay with me.

Does that mean that the two of you
will be coming together to our wedding?

I think so.

As husband and wife?

I haven't gone that far yet.

Here you are,
and you may order whatever you like.

Thank you.

One of these days,
your new ranch is gonna look like this.

Yeah, a little bit
of Southern Cross in it too.

How come
you got rid of the Southern Cross?

Well, when Ellie and I got married...

...I figured this was gonna be
my home now, so I sold it.

She sure seems to be a fine woman.

She is, the best.

I count myself a lucky man.

Been married long?
If you don't mind my asking.

No, not at all. Three years.

And I tell you, it's quite a family.

I'm glad that Ellie cares about the ranch,
not about the oil business...

...because that oldest son, J.R.,
heh, he is a fistful.

Yeah, heard a lot about him.

He's the one that runs Ewing Oil.

Yeah, he's welcome to it.

Not a good time now for oilmen.

Glad I'm not still in it.

I didn't know you were.

Oh.

It was a long time ago.

I, like most young bucks,
tried my hand at wildcatting.

Back in the '30s it was.

Over in East Texas.

Not all that far from where the Ewings
hit their first big field.

Well, how about that?

Did you know Jock and Jason
and the old Digger Barnes?

I never had much luck...

...so I figured I better stick
with what I knew best.

So I moved on back to Colorado.

Raising horses, huh?

There's the truck.
Better go get the stock loaded.

You didn't tell me
if you ever knew the Ewings.

I'm anxious to get them
to the new pasture.

It's a state statute, Ray.

You've been convicted of a felony.
You're not eligible as an adoptive parent.

But his case was so different.

No one knows that better than I, Donna.

But in the eyes of the state,
a conviction is a conviction.

Look, if you can't help me, Paul,
I'm gonna find somebody who can.

Now, hold on.
I didn't say I couldn't help.

I just don't know
how far you want to go with all this.

Whatever it takes.

What does it take?

All right. First, we can file an appeal...

...with the commissioner
of the State of Texas...

...Department of Human Services
in Austin.

What kind of appeal?

To review your standing in the community,
and the death of Mickey Trotter.

In essence, you'd be putting yourself
on trial again...

...to prove you're worthy
of adopting this boy.

I see.

It would mean reliving everything
you've been through before.

It would be worth it to me.

What about your Aunt Lil?

Do we have to bring her into this?

Well, there's no guarantee...

...that we can reverse their decision,
even with her.

But without her,
we don't have a ghost of a chance.

I don't think we can ask her to do that.

It's not fair.

It isn't fair, I agree.

Well, isn't there any other way?

Well, we can try and do it
with your testimony alone...

...but as I said, I don't think we can win.

Well, I have to think it over, Paul.

I understand.

If you can find any other way...

I'll keep trying.

We'll be in touch.

- Thank you, Paul.
- I wish I had something better.

I know.

Mrs. Ewing is here.

Pamela?
No, your wife.

I'll be right out.

Well, you're the one good thing
that's happened to me today.

Whatever are they doing to this building?

Oh, just some remodeling we scheduled.

Uh, Phyllis, you can leave now.
Come on in.

Thank you. See you tomorrow.

- Good night, Mrs. Ewing.
- Good night, Phyllis.

Well, I owe this to something,
I just don't know what.

- Sit down, darling.
- Thank you.

Well, I just left Pam and Mark.

- Been at the Oil Baron's most of the day.
- Oh?

We're having a reception there
for a lot of wealthy people...

...that Mark wants to contribute
to Graison Research.

There's nothing like good food and booze
to loosen purse strings, is there?

Ha, ha. Exactly.

But the point is, it's tomorrow night...

...and I'd like you to escort me.

Oh, well, uh,
how do Mark and Pam feel about that?

If it's what I want, it's fine.

Well, Sue Ellen,
I'd be honored to escort you.

And I guarantee you,
even if that idiot Cliff Barnes is there...

...I'll make you proud of me.

I believe you will.

Does this mean you consider our marriage
to be more than one in name only?

Let's see what happens tomorrow night.

I'll be back at Southfork.

I won't be far behind.

See you later.

Hi, J.R. You leaving?

Well, that depends.
What brings you here?

Mark Graison. I finally dug deep enough.

Ah. Well, come on in.

Huh. Guess my plans
will just have to wait.

All right, give me the good news.

Well, the trouble all started
during Graison's junior year.

- Part of fraternity hell week.
- Yeah, so?

A freshman pledge was assigned
to Graison and a couple of seniors.

They took him to the gym, blindfolded him,
tied his hands behind his back...

...and told him they were gonna march him
into the deep end of the pool.

First, they dumped him
into the shallow end.

What they didn't know
was that the kid couldn't swim...

...and he panicked.

By the time they realized
something was wrong...

...and got him out, it was too late.

He drowned.

So that's why Graison
was expelled from school.

Yep, but there's more to it than that.

The district attorney was gonna file charges
against him for involuntary manslaughter.

"Was"? It didn't happen?

Nope.

All of a sudden
the charges were dropped.

Graison sat out the rest of the year,
then went back later to graduate.

Well, why the hell
did they drop the charges?

Well, I've got very good sources that swear
that Graison's father got him out of it.

I mean, he paid everyone off.

I got very strong evidence...

...that an assistant district attorney
was bought off.

That's good stuff, Harry.

Real good.

I don't know how it's gonna help me.

The statute of limitations
must have run out a long time ago.

Oh, no, that's the point.

Unless he's charged and tried,
there is no statute of limitations.

You mean if I had to, I could still
take him to trial after all this time?

You sure could.

Well, how about that?

How about that?

Marilee Stone is here to see you.

Oh, all right. Show her in.

- Marilee.
- Will you get me coffee, honey?

Of course. Cliff?

No, thanks.

It's a little late for you
to be stopping by, isn't it?

Never too late
when it comes to J.R. Ewing.

Whoops. It's about J.R. Ewing,
I don't wanna hear about it.

Oh, of course you do, Cliff. It's good.

No, I promised my wife...

...that I would try to put J.R.
And Ewing Oil Company out of my life.

She wants a little peace and quiet
between the Ewings and the Barnes...

...and that's exactly
what she's gonna get.

Are you serious?

I sure am.

You seriously believe
that as soon as J.R. Is strong enough...

...he won't come after you?

Don't know what you mean,
"strong enough. "

Financially, money, cash flow.

He has to be hurting.

Yeah? What makes you think so?

Well, you heard that they closed down
the Marinos wells.

- Mm-hm.
- So aside from the personal satisfaction...

...I got from that, it means
it cut off his main source of income.

No, I don't believe that.

Your coffee, Mrs. Stone.
- Thank you, honey.

You'd better get him a drink.
He's gonna need it.

No. No, thanks. No, thanks.

Let me tell you about J.R.

I have it on very good authority...

...that he was all set to snap up
Jimmy Crowley's little oil company...

...until the Marinos shutdown.

- So?
- So when he heard the asking price...

...a steal at 30 million, he passed on it.

Now if that doesn't mean
that he's cash-poor, then what does?

Well, so he's a little tight for money now.
So what?

So the cartel's going to step in
and buy up the Crowley company.

- We're willing to let you come in with us.
- No.

I'm sorry, Marilee, but I can't do that.

Because if I did, it would look like
I was taking the first step against J. R...

...and I promised my wife I wouldn't.

Tsk.

I hope you don't live
to regret that promise, Cliff.

It's ringing.

Hello?
- Aunt Lil?

It's Raymond.

Raymond, how nice to hear your voice.

Well, you too. How are you, Aunt Lil?

Well, I'm fine.

I'm just fine. And you and Donna?

Well, that's, uh... That's one of
the reasons that I'm calling you.

Well, nobody's sick, are they?

No. No, we're fine.

We got a problem, Aunt Lil,
and you could help if you would.

Oh, anything, Raymond. You know that.

I want you to hear me out
before you decide.

And whatever you say,
I want you to know, I'll understand.

- Sounds serious.
- Yes, ma'am, it is serious.

And, uh, like I said,
if you say no, I'll understand.

Well, you just better tell me
what it is you want.

Well, Donna and I are trying to adopt.

We got a real wonderful little boy
we care a lot about.

Well, that's wonderful.

Well, it will be if it happens.

It might not.

Why not?

Because I was convicted
of killing Mickey.

Aunt Lil?

I'm here.

We're trying to get a hearing
so I could explain about Mickey...

...and so they can see
that I would make a fit father.

And you want me
to come and talk at the hearing?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Oh, Raymond, I'm...

I'm not sure I can go through that again.
It hurts so much.

I know that.

I can't give you an answer right now.

Well, we still have some time.

Well, call me in a couple of days.
I...

I've gotta think.

Aunt Lil, I'm sorry.

I had to ask.

I understand.

- Give my best to Donna.
- I will.

Bye.

- He's quick, isn't he?
- Yeah, doing fine.

Howdy, Clayton.

Hey, Punk.
What are you doing way out here?

I thought I'd catch you at the house.
How are you?

I persuaded him to come out
and see what you were up to.

Boy, I wanna tell you,
that is a first-class cutter you got there.

Well, wait till you see the good ones.

Ha. Listen, I came over here today
to invite you all to a big party.

Mavis and I are gonna celebrate
our 40th wedding anniversary...

...and I'm gonna throw
a shebang that won't quit.

Well, we wouldn't miss it for the world.

I'm gonna take over
the whole LBJ Hotel...

...and after everybody gets through drinking
and dancing and celebrating...

...well, they can find
any room they want.

Oh, that's a great idea.

You don't want people driving home
after that.

- That's what I was thinking.
- Excuse me.

You want to see this horse
worked anymore?

- No, Ben, that will do it, saddle up.
- Right.

I want you to meet a friend of mine,
Punk Anderson.

Punk, this here is Ben Stivers.
He's managing this whole venture.

- Sure nice to meet you, Ben.
- Nice to meet you, Mr. Anderson.

- Miss Ellie.
- Ben.

Uh, Ben, Mr. Anderson was my daddy.

Everybody that knows me
just calls me Punk.

All right, Punk.

You been around these parts long, Ben?

Here and there. Over in Kentucky lately.

Oh.

Well, I guess I was wrong.

About what?

Well, I just got the feeling
that I've met Ben somewheres before.

I don't know
where that would have been.

Well, how about East Texas in the '30s?
Uh, Punk was there too.

That was a long time ago.

Sure was, wasn't it?

Well, it could have been there
or anywhere, I guess.

Of course, there ain't many of us
that look like we used to.

That's for sure.

Nice meeting you, Punk.

Same to you.

Seems like a good man.

Well, he knows what he's doing,
I can tell you that.

You know, I could have sworn I've met him
somewhere before.

Well, Ellie, let me tell you
what I got planned for Mavis.

Mr. Graison?

- Dear? Thank you, Cassie.
- Oh, no, thank you.

Thank you.

Mark's doing some very unique work.

I believe we're the only research center
in this part of the country...

...that's concentrating on, uh,
blood disorders, viruses, antibodies.

Well, what about government grants?

We prefer to be independent, so we're free
to go wherever our research takes us.

That's why donations
are vitally important.

- It's quite some turnout, Sue Ellen.
- I hope it pays off.

- How much you trying to raise?
- A minimum of 25 million.

Well, that's quite some minimum.
Ha, ha, ha.

Can we get you something,
Dr. Kenderson?

No. No, thank you.

- Well, what do you think?
- Well, they're not easy.

I think maybe
a tour of the center will help.

Well, what about a donation
from Wentworth Industries?

- Would that help also?
- I thought you'd never ask.

- Well, Pam, Mark.
Hello.

- It's going quite well, Mark.
- I hope.

I haven't had a chance
to congratulate you on your wedding.

I'm truly happy for you.

Thank you, J.R.

- And I'm looking forward to being there.
- So am I.

- Is that how you really feel?
- Pam's gonna be a Graison now.

I don't think our paths
will be crossing much in the future.

- I think she'll be very happy with Mark.
- I hope so.

They started without us.

You're the one
that couldn't find your tie.

I'm used to having everything
where it belongs.

- You start moving stuff, I get lost.
- I knew it would be my fault.

Look, can we forget the whole thing
and enjoy this evening?

It's forgotten.

Mr. Barnes? Mrs. Barnes?

Hi, Cassie.

- Thank you.
- Thanks.

If anybody asks,
remember why we're late.

Mr. Ewing, sir?

I am Andrew Bates,
Standard Credit Bank, England.

Well, glad to meet you.
This is my wife, Sue Ellen.

- Oh, how do you do?
Hello.

I've been hearing an awful lot about you.

Well, nothing good, I hope.

Ha, ha. Well, to the contrary.

Good enough, in fact...

...to think about the possibility
of doing a little business together.

Oh, well, that's nice to hear,
but tonight is for Graison Research.

I really shouldn't talk any business.

However, I'm sure my wife
would be more than happy...

...to discuss any contributions
you'd like to make.

Ha, ha. Well, perhaps later,
we'll do just that.

- Nice to meet you, thank you.
- Thank you.

I can't believe you actually turned down
a business deal.

You have changed.

Ha, well, I'm kind of surprised myself.

- Would you excuse me?
- Sure.

Oh, thank you, darling.

Good evening.

Hello, Jerry.

- You look happy.
- I am.

The, uh, new improved J. R?

- Yes.
- I hope so, Sue Ellen. I really do.

I just don't believe it.

Well!
- J.R.

- Is there some reason you're here?
- Yes, my wife invited me.

Now, it's been a perfectly
wonderful evening, Cliff. Don't spoil it.

Jamie, you deserve better than you got,
honey.

Spoil it?
You know, I'm not gonna spoil anything.

What does he mean,
"you deserve better"?

L... I don't know.
Let's go find Pam and Mark.

The evening went beautifully.
I'm so proud of you.

The evening's not over yet.

Let's go home.

I think you'll never know
how happy you made me tonight.

J.R.

When I came into your bed tonight
and we made love...

...I made a total commitment to you.

I want to wipe out all the bad times,
start over.

As far as I'm concerned,
we already have.

It's not that simple.

I want you to make
the same commitment that I have.

I promise.

I hope you mean that.

Because I don't think I could stand the pain
of having you go back to your old ways.

I never will, Sue Ellen.

The fact is...

...I already have what I always wanted:

You.

I was too stupid and too vain
to realize it.

But I do now.

Do you think you can stand
living with just one woman?

As long as it's you, I can.

You gonna buy a new dress
for Punk's great party?

Oh, yes, I guess I better.

Everybody we know is gonna be there.

Well, you really think he's gonna be able
to keep that a secret from Mavis?

She already called to tell me
what she was going to wear.

And then she warned me
not to tell Punk that she knew.

He drove all the way out here
to keep it a secret. Ha.

Well, he seemed to like the stock...

...and the things that we're doing
at the new ranch.

Yes, he certainly did.

It was all he could do to keep from asking
if he could buy in with you and Ray.

You know, it's interesting
that he had a feeling...

...that he'd met Ben before.

Why?

Well, because
I've had the same feeling myself.

Nothing that I could really put my
finger on exactly, but there's just...

...something about him.

Chances are,
you've seen him some time ago.

After all, you must have come across
a lot of cowboys and oilmen...

...in the past 40 years.

Well, I guess you've got a point.

- But still, I...
Ha, ha.

- Hey, morning.
- Morning.

And it certainly is,
because we have some really good news.

Miss Ellie.

I just got off the phone
with Paul Morgan.

The Department of Human Services
said we can have our hearing.

- That's wonderful, wonderful!
Fine.

- Well, we haven't won yet.
- When's the hearing?

Thursday, in Dallas.

And if everything goes well...

...we can bring our son home
in just a few days.

Last night's glow
seems to have worn off.

Oh, no, darling, it's nothing like that.

Then what?
You've been quiet all morning.

Well...

When I got you back,
I thought everything would be perfect.

It's just strange timing, that's all.

Well, I don't understand.

My company is in trouble, Sue Ellen...

...and I just don't know
what to do about it.

Because of the drop
in the price of crude?

Yeah, that.
That and the damn Marinos deal.

I've been counting on the income
from the Venezuelan fields...

I mean, really counting on it.

- And they're capped,
and there's just not much I can do about it.

But you will. I know that.

The one thing you've
always been is a winner...

...and one way or another,
you're gonna find a way out.

You really believe in me that much?

Yes, I do.

Well, I can't let you down, can I?
Or John Ross.

- Something will come up, it always does.
- That's better.

Ha, ha. Never lost a battle yet, have I?
I'm not gonna start now.

See you at 5.

I don't need to tell you
how closely these will be analyzed.

Never doubted it.

Are you sure they'll hold up?

You be the judge of that.

Take a look at this.

Well, what about it? It's a letter I wrote.

You signed it?

Of course.

You're sure?

Well, it is my signature.
But I didn't write the letter.

Didn't sign it, either.

You're very good.

The best.

Wonderful.

Just wonderful.

These will be perfect for my needs.

Yeah?

Ben, we're running late.

I thought the auction was at noon.

No, 10.

Be right with you.

I don't know what I was thinking.

No problem.
Just gotta get a move on, that's all.

Good morning. I'm Thomas Perry...

...program director
for the Child Welfare Unit.

This hearing is to determine the fitness
of Raymond and Donna Krebbs...

...to secure
an adoption-placement agreement.

The Department of Human Services
has previously ruled against the Krebbs.

It shall be my determination
at the close of today's hearing...

...to either let the previous ruling stand,
or to overturn it...

...and rule in favor of the Krebbs Family.

Mr. Morgan, do you have anything
to say at the outset?

Yes, sir.

I know that you've read
the trial transcript...

...but we believe that after
you've heard the character witnesses...

...for the Krebbs and a reexamination
of Mr. Krebbs' trial...

...that you'll agree that Mr. And Mrs.
Krebbs will be loving and suitable parents.

We'll see. Let's hear your first witness.

It was a very difficult period
for the both of them...

...after they lost their baby.

I know, because I spent a good deal of time
with them in trying to help.

But eventually, Mrs. Krebbs became
a volunteer worker at our school.

She learned sign language so that
she could communicate with the children.

The child they are seeking to adopt
is a very special young man.

He is hearing-impaired.

He has gone through a previous
unfortunate adoption attempt.

He was very guarded, he was very shy.

But then, the care and love they have
shown him have brought him out of that...

...and he very much wants them
to adopt him.

So I have no reservations in asking
that the ruling be overturned...

...so that these people who care
so much for each other...

...can be allowed to become a family.

Over the course
of the past few months...

...I've gotten to know
Mr. And Mrs. Krebbs very well.

If it had been in my power...

...I would have granted
the adoption-placement agreement.

I never asked Mr. Krebbs
about his conviction...

...or the trial, or his reasons.

But I do know in my heart
that whatever happened before...

...the two of them
would make wonderful parents now.

And then there was the accident,
and Michael was in the hospital.

And Raymond was by his side,
night and day.

And for a while...

...we thought he'd get better.

And then he went into a coma.

And it wasn't...

...Michael there anymore.

It was this...

...machine...

...breathing for him, making him live.

Raymond was still there,
praying for him...

...telling him he'd get better.

But I knew he wouldn't.

And one day...

...as I was sitting...

...in his room, I knew...

...it had to end.

I knew...

...I had to stop that machine...

...that was making him live.

But I couldn't do it.

Not then.

Not that day.

And then Raymond...

Raymond came into the room...

...and I asked him to do...

...what I didn't have the strength to do.

To let Michael pass on
with some dignity.

And he said he wouldn't do it.

He said we didn't have the right
to do a thing like that.

And I kept telling him
that we must free Michael.

That we couldn't condemn him forever
to live...

...on that machine.

So finally he did it,
but it was my responsibility.

Raymond did what he did...

...because he loved Michael...

...and me.

I've never met a man...

...who would be a finer, better parent.

And I think he deserves the chance.

Mrs. Trotter was our last witness.

Very well.

I'll need some time
to consider what I've heard.

I'll contact you
when I've made my decision.

I know I told you to shut down
those stripper wells...

...but there's been a change.

Yeah, anything that's pumping,
you keep pumping.

Just don't ask questions.
You do like I tell you.

All right.

Yeah?

J.R., a messenger
just delivered this for you.

- Who's it from?
- I'm sorry. I don't know.

All right, give it here.

- That's all.
- Mm-hm.

- Yeah?
Franklin Horner on 1.

All right, I got it.

J.R. Here. What's up?

Regrettably, not the price of oil.

You didn't call me to tell me that.

I wanted to remind you...

...that the interest
on your loan is due on Monday.

- I know that.
- It's for $ 7.5 million.

That billion dollar loan
is costing you almost $2 million a week.

Franklin, no one
is more aware of that than I am.

To tell the truth,
I expected you to be more supportive.

When this little crunch is over...

...I'm gonna remember the people who
stuck by me, as I always have in the past.

I understand that, J.R.

It's just that I think
that whatever you can do...

...to start generating more income
should be done.

You just take care of your bank,
I'll take care of the oil business.

You're right.
It's a great car, but I don't want it.

In fact, I can't even understand
why you bought it.

Aw, ha, ha. Sure you do.

You remember that four-wheel monstrosity
that we used to have up in Alaska?

I always said, if I had any money...

...this would be the car
that I was gonna buy.

Anyway, I want you to have this car
to remember me by, okay?

Will you come back?

Why, sure, I'll come back.

Whenever I need a ride
in a fancy car like this, ha.

That is, if you'll let me borrow it.

So when will you be leaving?

I think I'll probably hang around
for Mark and Pam's wedding...

...and then I'm just gonna get out
on the old road...

...and go wherever it takes me.

Promise me you'll come back.

Yeah.

Promise.

Now...

...let's see if you can, uh,
manage to get us back into town...

...under 100 miles an hour. Ha, ha.

Okay?

Very good.

Uh, I think I'll drive.

Uh, sorry that we haven't seen you
for a while.

I miss you.

We missed you too, Tony.

But we won't anymore.

We found out that we can adopt you.

Really?

Really.

We can take you home tomorrow.

Yes?
It's me.

J.R. Come on in.

- Can I fix you a drink?
- Yes, please.

I see you got my little reminder.

Yes, I did.

I had no idea it'd affect you like this.

What do you mean?

Your coming over here today.

Why do you think I'm here, Mandy?

You liked what you saw.

I always have.

You are one of the most beautiful women
I have ever seen.

Can you spend the night?

No.

I won't be staying long.

Heh, I don't understand.

Mandy, you were wrong
about a lot of things...

...but mostly about Sue Ellen and myself.

I tried to tell you once before
that it's over between you and me.

It is. It is over, Mandy.

I think the best thing for you to do
would be to leave here.

Go somewhere
where you might meet someone...

...who's not in love with another woman.

You deserve better
than you ever got with me.

J.R., I love you.

I hope not.

Mandy, I only love and want Sue Ellen.

And I'm going home to her now.

Goodbye.

Well, Mr. Ewing...

We have some unfinished business.
