You know the letter
Katherine read to you?

PAM:
I didn't write it.

Pam, that letter changed everything.

We might not have gotten a divorce
it it hadn't been for that.

I understand your marriage
is under a lot of strain.

- So?
- Wives do kill husbands.

Think about Bobby. Not yourself.

JENNA:
Stay out of his life.

- Do you think I tried to shoot you, J.R.?
- Did you?

Jenna, unless I can see again,
we can't get married.

J.R.: Kendal
- Good morning. JR.

Good morning.

[SIGHS]

- Phyllis.
PHYLLIS: Good morning, J.R. How's Bobby?

Ah, he's about the same.
I think he'd appreciate a visit from you.

Why don't you go over
to the hospital later?

- Thank you, J.R., I will.
- Good.

J.R., Captain Fogany
is waiting for you in your office.

Well, I hope he got some answers.

- Fogany.
- Good morning, Mr. Ewing.

Well, now that Edgar Randolph
is no longer a suspect...

...what you got to say to me?
Sit down.

Very little, I'm afraid.

As you know, we have the bullets
we took out of your brother.

They proved that Randolph's gun
did not do the shooting.

Beyond that, we have nothing until
we find the gun to match the bullets to.

What about the list of suspects
we talked about?

I've checked on them all,
their alibis appear to hold up.

In addition to Randolph, we've cleared
Afton Cooper for the moment.

It appears that Katherine Wentworth
was in Houston at the time of the shooting.

I've talked to Vaughn Leland.
Frankly, I don't think he's a suspect.

Did you find Peter Richards yet?

FOGARTY: No. The police there
are still trying to locate him.

Your prime suspect is Cliff Barnes.
He's been trying to get me for years.

Maybe. But right now,
it looks like he doesn't have a motive.

Tsk, well, there's had blood between
our families for as long as I can remember.

I think that's ancient history.

Cliff Barnes just struck it rich in the Gulf.

The last thing he's thinking about
is vengeance.

You don't know Barnes.

Up until the night of the shooting,
he thought he was losing millions.

Mr. Ewing, he did strike oil
and it is a very rich find.

But did he strike oil
before or after the shooting?

- I don't know.
- Don't you think you ought to find out?

Oh, I have another thought.

I hate to bring it up.
It's Mrs. Ewing, Sue Ellen.

I've nosed around a little bit.

I understand your marriage
is under a lot of strain.

- So?
- Wives do kill husbands and vice versa.

Do you know where she was
the night of the shooting?

No.

Then you don't mind
if I ask her some questions?

[SIGHS]

All right. Go ahead, Fogany.

But I want action fast.

If you can't find out who shot my brother,
I'm gonna take the law in my own hands.

[SCOFFS]

I don't think
that's a very good idea, Mr. Ewing.

It's better than being dead.

RAY: And you (h'mk JR.
may have had your phone bugged?

[BOBBY SIGHS]

Well, I would have had an answer
for that question...

...it I had gotten the chance
to look at his phone.

But you were shot
before you could check.

If J.R. knew you were looking for phone
taps, he would have them removed by now.

- But he doesn't know, I didn't tell him.
- Bob, let me ask you something.

Do you think its possible that the person,
whoever it was that bugged your phone...

...could also be the same one
that did the shooting?

I'd have to rule that out
if it were J.R., wouldn't I?

[SIGHS]

Yes. Yes, I guess you are right.

I mean he would do
just about anything but that.

You want us
to have these phones checked, Bob?

I'd sure appreciate it, Ray.

All right, how do we get in there
without anybody knowing about it?

Phyllis is gonna come over and see me.
I can work it out with her.

All right. We'll call you later
after you talk to Phyllis.

Ray, can you wheel me back inside,
please?

Sure.

- Are you in pain?
- It just comes and goes.

- I think it's time for my medicine, that's all.
- Okay, Bobby.

CLIFF:
Jackie, send in Vaughn Leland.

Cliff.

I want to congratulate you on
your magnificent strike down in the Gulf.

I hear you were here
when word came in from the Gulf.

- Oh, yes, and it was a wonderful moment.
- Cut the bull, Vaughn.

You were ready to padlock my company
and put me out of business.

That whole crazy loan agreement
was designed for me to go belly up...

...and for you to take over the company.

Oh, now, Cliff, take it easy.

You know very well
most of that was J.R.'s doing.

Oh, yeah, I know that.

But you were willing to go along
as his front man.

Well, now, look at it this way, Cliff.

Uh, you did hit.
And I did arrange the loan.

And at an interest rate lower
than you could've gotten anywhere else.

The way I look at it, uh.
I did you a favor.

I came through
when nobody else would.

Mm-hm. Are you here
to collect your current interest payment?

Oh, there's no hurry on that, Cliff.
Ha, no hurry at all.

No? Your board of directors
are off your back, huh?

Well, they're not worried
about getting their money anymore.

Nah, they shouldn't be.

I'll have Leo Wakefield
draw up a check for the complete balance...

...then we can
just pay the loan 0” in full.

Oh, now, that's not necessary.

No. I secured a loan
at a reputable bank at a reasonable rate.

Now, it might take Leo Wakefield
an hour or two to tally up the figures.

But if you want to wait for your check,
you can.

Well, now, if that's what you want, Cliff.

And listen, it there's any other way
that I can help you...

I think the best thing for you to do
is to start looking for an alibi.

Because I'm filing a complaint against you
and your bank for unfair banking practices.

Now, I'm sure your board of directors
will like to hear that.

Now, Cliff, that's no way to react.

If you want to wait for your check...

...would you kindly do it
in my outer office?

- Now, look, Cliff...
- Get out.

Shh. Please, Mr. Ewing is asleep.

Is it all right if I wait?

- Are you a relative?
- I'm a very good friend.

- All right.
NURSE [ON PA SYSTEM]: Dr- Escobar---

...admitting desk, please.

Katherine, I'm surprised to see you.

Shh. Bobby's asleep.

[SIGHS]

[GASPS]

- What are you doing here?
- I'm very fond of Bobby.

I flew up from Houston to see him.

I heard the two of you
weren't getting along very well.

Oh, that's nonsense.

We had a few unpleasant moments.
But nothing to destroy a friendship.

I was devastated
when I heard what happened.

Are you just going to sit here
and watch him sleep?

Are you leaving?

No.

I think I'll stay for a while.

Well, maybe it would be better
it I came back some other time.

Hm-hm.

Maybe. Well, I'll tell him you were here.

[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

CHRISTOPHER: Foo!
PAMELA: Ooh!

CLIFF:
Hey.

Hi, Pam. How's my favorite nephew?

- Lookit here.
PAMELA: He's fine.

CLIFF:
Look what I got for you.

PAMELA: Oh...
CLIFF: Put that in here.

Look at this. Here, get down.

CLIFF: Put that right in there.
PAMELA: You're gonna get your suit wet.

CLIFF: That's all right, I'll throw it away.
I think I've got lint in the pockets anyway.

Is this my brother?
That's really extravagant talk.

Hey, I'm on top of the world
for the first time in my life.

And I did it all alone, which makes
the success that much sweeter.

I'm really proud of you, Cliff.

- I know Mama would have been too.
- Thanks.

PAMELA: Ava, would you take Christopher
in the house and dry him off?

Come on, sweetie. Oh, there we go.

We'll get your boat later.

[CLIFF CHUCKLES]

CLIFF:
Too bad you never invested with me.

It did make the bad moments
a little easier.

PAMELA: Well, I'm sorry.
CLIFF: That's okay.

I now understand
what was going on with Mark.

I understand that and I forgive you.

Cliff, now that everything's
going right for you...

...don't you think it would be nice
if you and Afton got married?

- Afton walked out on me.
- Why?

I don't know, she just walked out on me.
I can't figure it out.

[SIGHS]

We were fighting all the time anyway.

The last fight just kind
of busted up the romance.

- When was that?
- Right after Bobby got shot.

Well, Cliff, that was an awful time for her.
I read in the papers that she found him.

Didn't you know that?
I mean, she really liked Bobby.

- That was awful for her.
- I know, okay.

Well, you know.
I'm sorry Bobby got shot too.

I liked him, even though he is a Ewing.
It would have been a lot better if it was J.R.

- Oh, Cliff.
- Hey, don't be hypocritical.

Who would have mourned him
except his mother, maybe?

- Can we change the subject?
- Ha, ha. Changed.

When you coming back to work?

I know you're still bothered
by Bobby's shooting.

And you still feel the loss of Mark.
Well, so do I.

But you've got to get your life together.

And the best therapy for that is work.

So, what do you say?

I don't know. I'll have to think about it.

[CHUCKLES]

You know, nobody is ever gonna accuse you
of making hasty decisions.

Hmm, probably not. Come on.

[CLIFF CHUCKLES]

DONNA: Since we know that there was
a bugging device in Bobby's office...

...why don't we start with J.R.'s?

Oh. It's there.

I feel so funny coming into this office
knowing that Bobby was shot here.

- Is this along process, Mr. Fletcher?
- Shouldn't be.

I don't find a bug in the phone.

If there were any bugs,
they're not here now.

Well, why don't we go back outside
and, uh, check the secretaries' office?

- No, nothing in this phone either.
- Check the other phone.

Okay.

[TONE SOUNDS]

FLETCHER:
There, bingo.

PHYLLIS:
My phone bugged?

FLETCHER:
Yes, ma'am.

Here it is.

Phyllis, I think you'd better
take Mr. Fletcher downstairs...

...and check the other offices.

Yes, I will.

We'll start in Accounting.

Well, what is all this reading to you?

Phyllis' phone's bugged,
Bobby's phone's bugged.

J.R.'s phone is not bugged.

Looks to me like J.R.'s behind
the whole damn thing.

Looks to me like you are right.

Bobby, when are they
gonna let you go home?

I don't know, honey.
I guess they don't think I'm ready yet.

- Do your eyes hurt?
- Charlie.

Jenna, Jenna, it's all right.

No, sweetheart, they don't hurt. Uh...

I just get some headaches
now and then, that's all.

Charlie, do you mind leaving
Bobby and me alone for a while?

Sure, I understand.

CHARLIE: Good night, Bobby.
- Good night, sweetheart.

Hey.

[WHISPERS]
Thank you.

- She's good medicine.
- She loves you.

Just like her mother.

Look, uh, Jenna, there's no reason
for you to come by the hospital every day.

You do have a business to run,
you know.

Oh, are you thinking about
your investment?

No.

It just can't be much fun
sitting around here all the time, that's all.

I'm with you. That's what's important.

Well, uh.
I'm not very good company lately.

I don't want to be entertained.
I just want to be with you.

Just because you were hurt
doesn't mean I love you any less.

I still intend to many you.

Well, under the circumstances, I...

I can't think about that right now.

I think about it all the time.
I almost lost you.

Do you know
how frightening that was for me?

Jenna, I may not be able to see again.

And I talked to the doctor, and he said
there should be improvement by now.

I should see a shadow,
a flash of light, something.

I talked to him too.
There is no hard and fast time limit.

Well, I just can't think about
getting married right now.

What kind of a statement is that?

I want you no matter what.

Jenna, unless I can see again,
we can't get married.

- Well, John Ross, you're up bright and early.
- Hi, Daddy.

I'm going to practice my swimming,
but I'm waiting for Mama to watch me.

- Good, good, never go in the pool alone.
- I know.

Daddy, is Peter ever going to come back
to see me again?

Well, uh, I don't really know.

It was real important for Peter's work
to leave town, you know.

I miss him.

Yeah, I know you do, buddy.

But you're going to make other friends.
I guarantee you.

Are you going to see Uncle Bobby
at the hospital?

Well, I might drop in on him
this afternoon.

I got an awful lot of work
to do at the office.

JOHN ROSS: Maybe I can go
to the office and help you.

J.R.:
Well, that's a good idea.

Maybe we ought to wait
until you're older, huh?

JOHN ROSS: Daddy, are you going to be
running Ewing Oil all by yourself?

Well,uh...

Well, I'm just gonna run it
till Bobby gets back. Why do you ask that?

Well, you said
you were going to run the company...

...all by yourself someday
and then give it to me.

Well, I couldn't take it away from Bobby
while he's in the hospital.

But Mama said
Bobby can't see right now.

John Ross, ahem, there's something
I want to explain to you, son.

One of these days,
I expect to control all of Ewing Oil.

And Bobby won't work there.
He'll be doing something else.

But I want you to remember
that he's my brother...

...and I love him very much.

And it just wouldn't be fair
to take advantage of him while he's sick.

That's just something you don't do
to people you love.

But when he's well and able
to defend his shares in Ewing Oil...

...well, I'm gonna fight for it
and of course I'll win.

Then I'm gonna give you
the whole company...

...and you'll never have to share it
with anybody.

- Now, do you understand that?
- I think so.

Good, and you gotta remember,
with family, you play fair...

...because there are rules to follow.

And if you do,
you'll be able to live with yourself.

Now, don't you go in that pool
until your mama gets here.

Well, I'm here now.

Kiss-kiss, bud.

[J.FL CHUCKLES]

There!

- Hey, Sly.
- Mr. Barnes.

When I asked you to meet me,
I didn't expect it would be here.

Well, I told J.R. I had some errands
to run this morning.

I didn't wanna take a chance
on a meeting downtown.

Why? Why wouldn't you want J.R.
to know about our meetings?

I'm sure he knew about all the other ones.
I'm sure he knows about this one.

Why would you say that? I've been loyal
to you ever since we made our arrangement.

Oh, you don't expect me
to believe that, do you?

I know J.R. set me up. He couldn't
have done that without your help.

What do you mean you were set up?

You hit in the Gulf.
One of the biggest strikes ever.

Sure, I did. But that's because
I outfoxed J.R. and I outfoxed you.

[SIGHS]

Well, if you wanna believe
I double-crossed you...

...then there's no way
I can convince you you're wrong.

Sly, you fed me all those facts and figures.
I almost went under.

You know, J.R. himself told me that
he set me up. So you had to have helped.

I just came here to tell you
that you're a double-cross and a sneak.

Mr. Barnes, I didn't double-cross you,
but I do know why you think so.

I know how J.R. was able to follow
your every move.

Make it good.

I found out recently
that J.R. had your phone tapped.

Oh, yeah, sure he did.

And he went in yesterday
and had it all yanked out.

No, as far as I know
the phone's still bugged.

- My office?
- Your office and your home phone.

I'll check it out.

I'm sorry you don't trust me anymore.

I really like working with you.

[SCOFFS]

Yeah.

[TELEPHONE RINGING]

J.R.: Hello?
- J.R.?

How did it go?

I had to tell him about the phone bugs
in his office...

...or he never would have believed
I didn't double-cross him.

- Did he buy it?
SLY: I don't know.

Well, we'll just have to wait and see.

Are you comfortable here, Mr. Ewing?

It's as good a place as any, Lori.

You have some visitors.
I'll be nearby if you need me.

Hi, Bob.

Holmes and Watson have returned.

What did you find out?

Well, uh, Phyllis' phone was bugged,
so was the comptroller.

There were several in Accounting,
chief engineer and one on the geologist.

And J.R.?

Nothing on J.R.'s 0! SW's.

Then it was him.

Looks like it.

[SIGHS]

Damn it, with me here like this,
he can take over that company...

...and run it any way he pleases.

And that's just what he plans on doing.

Well, we'd like to help
if you've got any ideas, Bob.

I've got to have somebody in that office
to protect my interests.

Ray, what about you?
You have a right to protect it.

BOBBY:
You own a piece of it.

Well, Bob.
that's a little out of my league.

I wouldn't know what to make out of all
that stuff. Besides I've got the ranch to run.

Donna, she'd make
a good watchdog for you.

RAY: You're on the Energy Commission.
You know something about the oil business.

BOBBY:
Donna?

Well, I was going to volunteer, you see.

But I thought it would be polite
to wait until I was asked.

That's terrific.

You're gonna have to take
a little flak from J.R.

Right. Ha.

[CHUCKLES]

I wish I could see that smile.

[SIGHS]

You didn't say a word at dinner tonight.
What is it?

You know damn well what it is.

[SUE ELLEN GRUMBLES]

Sue Ellen, I'm in no mood for sex.
Don't you understand?

There's still somebody running around
out there who wants to kill me.

Captain Fogany was here today,
questioning me about the shooting.

Look, he's just doing his job, honey.

I don't think it's any secret...

...that our relationship
was pretty strained this year.

He has to talk to anybody
who might have a motive to shoot me.

Do you really think
that I tried to shoot you, J.R.?

Did you?

I thought about it.

Right after I finally realized
that you had manipulated Peter and me.

What did you expect me to do...

...after I found out the two of you
were having an affair?

The sad thing is it never really was
an affair except in Peter's mind.

It pleases me to hear that.

I heard you talking
to John Ross this morning.

Oh.

I was glad that you're not gonna take
advantage of Bobby while he's injured.

Did you think I would?

I guess I did until this morning.

Oh, Sue Ellen, after all these years...

...you don't really know me at all,
do you?

I guess I don't.

Good night.

Good night.

Hi, Daddy.

Hi. Hi, Pam.

Bobby, you look wonderful.

Well, thank you.
I'm not quite sure how I look anymore.

Here, pal.

I know you're gonna get
your sight back soon.

[SIGHS]

At least one of us is optimistic, huh?

[SIGHS]

I just wanted to tell you...

...that I know you and Jenna
plan to be married.

I hope you'll still feel free to pick up
Christopher the way you always have.

I wouldn't do anything
to get in the way of that.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

[SIGHS]

Pam, it seems we're getting along
better now than when we were married.

It makes me think we should have been able
to overcome some of our problems.

Well, I think we had too much
outside interference.

What do you mean?

You know the letter
Katherine read to you?

The one that made you
go ahead with the divorce?

We never got a chance
to talk about that, Bobby.

The one you wrote to your lawyer?

Yes, except I didn't write it.
Katherine did.

Katherine?

Pam, that letter changed everything.

We might not have gotten divorced
it it hadn't been for that.

Well, at least we could have talked
about our problems.

I know.

- Pam...
- Bobby, we can talk again.

I don't wanna wear you out,
you ought to get some rest now.

- Come on, Christopher.
- Wait, wait.

Goodbye, sweetheart.

- Bye-bye.
- Goodbye.

Come on, hon.

DONNA: Good morning, Kendal.
- Hello.

- Wait a minute, miss.
- This is Mrs. Krebbs.

- She's not on my list.
- It's all right, Henry.

Mrs. Krebbs is gonna be here
every day for a while.

- Yeah, but she's not on my list.
- Put her on it.

- Yes, ma'am.
- Mrs. Krebbs.

Thank you, Phyllis.

PHYLLIS:
You know Donna Krebbs?

- Yes, of course, hello.
- Hello, Sly.

Donna will be taking over Bobby's office
until he comes back.

[KNOCKING]

J.R.:
Come in.

I'll bring you all the mail, and whatever
seems personal, you can give back to me.

-01 take it to Bobby yourself.
- Okay, uh, now, how do I get you?

Oh, over here.
Just push this and it buzzes my desk.

- Easy enough.
J.R.: Phyllis.

Do you mind if I speak to Donna alone?

Now, what's going on?

Well, what does it look like?
I'm sitting in for Bobby.

Sitting in for Bobby?

Yes, I am here to protect his interests,
to look after his share of the company.

This is Ewing Oil. Donna Krebbs
does not belong in a Ewing company.

Really?

This, J.R., is a power of attorney.

Bobby had it drawn up
and it gives me the right...

...to look after his interests.

Oh, you can keep it. I have another copy.

Well, in case
it slipped your mind, darling...

...that Bobby's my brother,
I'll look after his interests.

Well, it's because you are Bobby's brother
that he needs me here.

You are the one
he needs protection from.

You don't really expect me to come running
to you every time I need a signature?

I don't expect you to come in here at all.
Just see that I get them.

Mine will be the second signature
on every document...

...as long as Bobby is incapacitated.

Ah, don't get too comfortable
in that chair, Donna.

You're not gonna be there for long.

I share your hopes
for Bobby's speedy recovery.

That's not what I mean.

[SIGHS]

[DOORBELL CHIMES]

Hey, Katherine,
you finally got my message, huh?

You know, the hotel told me
that you moved back to Houston.

I came up to see how Bobby was doing.
Cliff, I'm busy.

What's so important
that you had to talk to me in person?

Now, wait just a minute.

You can't congratulate me
on my big success first?

[SCOFFS]

A big success. Cliff, you were just lucky.

I heard when you struck oil it was
only a matter of a couple of hours...

...before the bank was gonna padlock
the company Mama gave you.

You've got the cutest personality,
Katherine. Anybody ever tell you that?

Cliff, what do you want?

I want to buy back my share
of Wentworth Tool and Die.

- It's not for sale.
- Now wait a minute.

That company was left
to all three of us.

I sold you my share at a bargain price,
$18 million.

I am willing to pay you full market price,
25 million.

Cliff, didn't you hear me?
I said it's not for sale.

Now, that was my father's
very first company.

Neither you nor Pam
should ever have had a piece of it.

Okay, I just thought
we could do some business, that's all.

You know, I don't understand you.

Don't you understand
that I am a major force in Dallas now?

That if you and Pam and I
pooled our resources...

...we could tum this town upside down?

We could put the Ewings away
in nothing flat.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

I can't get through to you. Getting through
to you is like getting through a wall.

Do me a favor, will you?
You just forget I said anything.

Hello? Hey, Jordan.
It's good to hear from you.

I wanted to congratulate you
on your big oil strike.

Oh, thanks. Listen, I'm telling you,
you had a lot to do with that.

When you suggested that I use
Bull Dawson, that's what did the trick.

Well, you had a lot of courage, Cliff.

I don't know of another independent oil man
who would have gambled like that.

It's a big win for you and you deserve it.

CLIFF: So you and I are gonna be putting
together a lot of deals in the near future.

I'm looking forward to it.

- Bye, Cliff.
CLIFF: Bye.

There you go, Katherine.
See, some people still believe in friendship.

Katherine?
Katherine, where are you? Huh?

Where did you go?

Well, she left.

Hello, Jenna.

Pam.

Bobby told me you were here earlier
with Christopher.

I took him home for his nap.

- Why did you come back?
- Why?

Because I wanted to be with Bobby.

It's a little difficult to talk
with a child around.

I don't think you and Bobby
have that much to say to each other.

Well, it's really none of your business.

Yes, it is, Pam. You divorced him.

Bobby and I are going to be married.
You're complicating his life.

How's that?

He's hurt, he's angry at the blindness,
at his helplessness at the moment.

It will all change when he gets better.

We are going to be married, Pam.

Well, you may be right, Jenna.
but I'm still very concerned about Bobby.

If that's so, then stay away from him.

You know that life for Bobby
will be a lot easier if he marries me.

If you stay out of his life.

The Ewing family likes me, including J.R.

Without you,
the Barnes-Ewing feud will stop.

Doesn't his peace of mind
mean anything to you?

Of course it does.

Look, Pam.
I know you still think you love Bobby.

Really?

JENNA: You gave up all rights to him
when you walked out.

And especially when you agreed
to many Mark.

Jenna, don't tell me what my rights are.

JENNA:
He's not in his room.

They've taken him down for more tests.

- Why more tests?
- Because he's not getting any better.

Don't make it more difficult for him now.

Think about Bobby, not yourself.

If you really love him...

...stay out of his life.

- Hello, Dora Mae.
- Mr. Barnes.

Congratulations on your success
in the Gulf.

- Thank you, thank you.
- Your table is ready.

Dora Mae, would you please bring me
the best bottle of champagne in the house?

It's already chilled and waiting.
Compliments of the Oil Barons' Club.

[CLIFF LAUGHS]

- How about that?
JORDAN: Mighty tine.

ANDY:
You're a big man now, Cliff.

Well, I'm gonna show you
how big I really am.

If my information is correct and...

No, there. Yeah, it is.

Cliff, I thought we were gonna have
a quiet little celebration dinner.

Now, hold it, Cliff.

We don't want any trouble
with J.R. tonight.

Ha, ha. No trouble, no trouble.

I wanna thank J.R. Ewing,
Dallas' newest banker.

SUE ELLEN: Cliff, please.
- Don't make an ass of yourself.

No, no, I would like to give you
this certified check.

And I would publicly like to thank you
for bankrolling me...

...in what has turned out to be one of
the most successful offshore ventures ever.

I mean, uh, not long ago, J.R. Ewing...

...publicly insulted my daddy and me
in this very room.

Now, I'm here to tell you
that there are no hard feelings.

As a matter of fact, your remarks
kind of stimulated me to move on.

And I want to personally thank you
for my success.

And of course someday
I hope you'll see fit...

...to publicly thank my daddy
for making Ewing Oil what it is.

You see, you tried to do to me
what Jock did to Digger.

But I don't know,
maybe I'm just stronger.

Or maybe I'm smarter.

Or maybe I'm just luckier.
I don't know, maybe I'm all three.

But anyway...

...this time, a Barnes
beat the hell out of a Ewing.

[CLIFF LAUGHS]

Oh, Cassie, Cassie. Here.

Would you kindly take
this bottle of champagne...

...and give it to Mr. and Mrs. Ewing?

I do want them to have something
to remember this evening by.

[CLIFF CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

- J.R., take me home.
- No, not yet.

- Mr. Ewing, if you don't want it--
- No, Cassie, just leave it, thank you.

Meet me at the elevator.

Barnes, I want to thank you
for a wonderful evening.

[CLIFF LAUGHS HYSTERICALLY]

Now, don't forget your check. Ha, ha.

[PEOPLE MURMURING INDISTINCTLY]

[LAUGHS]

Doctor?
- He's asleep, Miss Wade.

- I wanted to know the results of the tests.
- He's still blind, there's no change.

The longer it takes,
the less likely he is to regain his sight.

[HORSE NEIGHING]

Did you spend the night
in one of the guestrooms?

- No, I was out here.
- All night?

Um, that incident with Cliff
really disturbed you, didn't it?

Can you imagine Cliff Barnes owning
one of the richest tracts in the Gulf?

Why did he give you that check?

And what was he talking about,
about you being his banker?

Sue Ellen, I don't want to talk about it.

J.R., you worked very hard
to get me back into your bedroom.

I thought that meant
I'd be back into your life again too.

Well, apparently I was wrong.

Now, wait a minute, Sue Ellen.

Can't you understand how painful it is
for me to talk about this?

Come on, get over here and sit down.

You know, it was bad enough when Barnes
was yapping at me all the time...

...like a mouse attacking a lion.

But when his mama
gave him that oil company...

...he became a major thorn in my side.

He did everything he could
to hurt Ewing Oil.

You know how much
the company means to me.

Of course.

I admit I've tried
to put him out of business.

I'm not particularly proud of that...

...but I felt it was essential
to the survival of Ewing Oil.

But, you know...

...my last scheme backfired on me.

Are you trying to tell me that in some way
you're responsible for Cliff's oil strike?

I was entirely responsible for it, darling.
Everything was going perfectly.

He was well on his way to bankruptcy
and at the last minute, he hit just like that.

All right, so he struck oil.
Why can't you live with that?

Because he won't let me.

As soon as he gathers his forces,
he's gonna try to put me out of business.

Can he do that?

[SIGHS]
Well, anything's possible.

I'll find some way to stop him.

Well, you don't say that
with your usual conviction.

Ha. Well, Barnes is not the only thing
that went wrong, honey.

I am responsible
for Bobby being in the hospital...

...and Bobby gave Donna Krebbs
power of attorney to act on his behalf.

And there is a killer
running around loose out there some place.

I think that's enough to dampen
my normal enthusiasm, don't you?

J.R., you're exhausted.

You can't deal with any of this right now,
so why don't you go up to bed?

Maybe you're right.

Thanks for listening.

Hello, Bobby.

Clayton, what the hell
are you doing here?

Well, when your mother and I
got to Greece...

...I called my office to check up
on a couple of unfinished deals...

...and they told me about the shooting.

I didn't know how serious it was,
so I didn't tell your mother.

I just told her I had a couple
of major problems with a refiner...

...and I had to fly back.

- So she didn't come back with you?
CLAYTON: No.

She's with a couple of old friends
of hers from Highland Park.

She won't be lonely.

How long are you going to be
in the hospital?

Until my sight comes back, I guess.

Or if they let me go out of here
with a cane and a dog.

You're blind?

Yeah.

They tell me it's a temporary condition...

...but I think they're gonna be
changing that story have pretty soon.

Bobby, I'm gonna have
to let your mother know.

- I can't hide something like this from her.
BOBBY: Clayton, please don't tell her yet.

She's finally getting a chance
to enjoy herself.

I don't want to take that from her now.

BOBBY: There's time enough to tell her
when you both get back.

I don't like hiding things from her, Bobby.

Clayton, please.

I'd consider it a personal favor.

[SIGHS]

Tsk. All right, I'll do my best.

But that lady
has learned to read me like a book.

Thanks.

Hello.

I'm glad to see you.

I thought it was time
I came back to work.

Well, I tell you, Jackie told me
that you might be coming in today...

...but just thought I'd wait to see
it it really happened.

Well, here I am.

[CLIFF CHUCKLES]

Well, that's terrific.

You know how much I want you here
because we're gonna make a great team.

We're gonna be one of the biggest
independent oil companies in Dallas.

Hey, for that matter,
we might be already.

Cliff, you've come along way.

You have more courage
than even I knew you had.

Hey, we were two tough kids growing up.
We had to be, it just paid off.

Pam, look, I want to tell you that I know
you had a lot to deal with, with Mark...

...and I know how affected you had to be
by what happened to Bobby.

But you're here now
and you're my sister...

...and I'm happy about that.

Thank you.

Listen, I think
we've congratulated each other enough.

- What's on the agenda for today?
- Ha, ha. Lunch.

- Lunch?
- Ha. Yeah.

Come on. I know it took
a lot of strength for you to get in here.

But the fact of the matter is you came late
and now it's time for lunch. Let's go.

I'm afraid to ask you
where you're taking me.

I am gonna take you some place nice.
You wait and see, you'll be surprised.

You and I have to figure out the way
to handle all this money and power.

Something's going on.

I'm Lieutenant Harris. Dallas Police.

- Are you Clifford Barnes?
- Yeah.

Mr. Barnes, you're under arrest.

- For what?
- The attempted murder of Mr. Bobby Ewing.

HARRIS: Beal, read him his rights.
- Cliff, what's going on?

- This is a mistake.
- No, ma'am, no mistake.

We got a warrant
and searched Mr. Barnes' townhouse.

We found the gun
that shot Mr. Bobby Ewing.

BEAL: “If you can't afford a lawyer,
one will be appointed to you...

...before any questioning.

You can decide at any time
to exercise these rights...

...and not answer any questions
or make any statements.“

Take him to the car.

You can't do this!
