All language subtitles for Dallas - S05E03 - Showdown at San Angelo eng

Won't they have to
check through customs, Bobby?

No, I don't think so. They
probably did that in New York.

Here they come.

You think they're glad
to be home?

Look! There she is!

- I don't see Jock.
- Ah!

Mama! Welcome home!

Oh, honey,
I'm so glad to see you!

- Welcome home, welcome home.
- Oh, Ray!

How are you?
Donna, I missed you!

We're blocking traffic.
Come on.

- I missed you.
- You look wonderful.

Oh, I think I gained
ten pounds.

No, no, wh-where's Daddy?

Oh, uh...

Ah, Dave Culver and someone
from the state department

met us as we were getting off
the plane in New York

and they wanted Jock
to go down to

Washington, DC,
with him right away.

Washington?
What's he doing there?

Well, it all happened so fast,
he-he didn't say.

But he's gonna call later
tonight and explain.

Well, let me take
your baggage tickets.

- I'll go pick that stuff up.
- Alright.

Where's-where's J.R. and Pam?

I thought they'd
be here to meet us.

Well, Pam is working.

J.R. said he'd meet us
at the ranch.

Has he heard from Sue Ellen?

How's John Ross?

John Ross is fine, mama.

Sue Ellen has him at San Angelo.

How's J.R. taking it?

Not too well, mama.

He's doing everything he can

to get John Ross back
to the ranch.

I just don't understand
how he ever let...

...let her get
John Ross off the ranch.

Well, Ms. Ellie, there was just
so many things happening

with Kristin coming back
and Cliff finding her body

in the pool like that.

Sue Ellen is in Albuquerque
at the funeral.

Kristin's death must have been
a terrible shock to her.

It was to all of us, mama.

- Hi, darlin'.
- How are you?

I'm fine.

Maria, could you put
John Ross to bed?

Si, senora.
- He's exhausted. Take my purse.

- Here we go.
- Thank you.

Oh, it's so good
to see you.

I have missed you.

How'd your mama take it?

Not very well.

Mom actually can't face
the fact that Kristin's gone.

She had such high
hopes for her.

And for me.

And I know that
for Kristin dying.

Sue Ellen,
it's not your fault.

Maybe.

Maybe.

But she kept telling me
that if I hadn't left J.R.

and if I had been on
Southfork that night

it never would've happened.

Maybe she was right.

Sue Ellen, you can't
blame yourself.

You saw the coroner's report.

Whatever your mama remembered
Kristin as being

she had changed.

And you know she hadn't
changed for the better.

I know, but I have that feeling
that I could've helped her.

Oh, I know
what she was, but...

...but she was my sister.

I was so relieved
when she went to California...

...because I finally felt that
she was out of my life.

Hold me.

Hold me.

I'm sorry.

- But, Sue Ellen--
- Dusty, I'm sorry!

It's alright.
I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry.

I'm sorry.

I just got carried away.

So did I.

There's just nothing
I could do about it.

It doesn't matter.

All that matters to me
is that I know that you love me.

I love you.

That's all I want.

Is this the chili powder
you were talking about?

That's it.

If you wanna cut up
those onions

I'll get this in the pan.

Look, I tell you, I'm glad

things are going
as well as they are, Ray.

Well, from what Punk says

we're gonna make
a killing on this deal.

I tell you,
I think it's wonderful

he invited you in on it.

Kind of find it hard to believe
myself sometimes.

[Bobby] Well, I'm proud of you.

How do you like that cowboy
you married now, Donna?

He's got the makings
of a real businessman.

I liked him fine when he was
running the ranch.

Nothing wrong with a man
trying to improve his lot.

Well, I'm not so sure
I think that's an improvement.

- Hello, Ray, Bobby, Donna.
- J.R.

- J.R.
- Mama.

- J.R.
- Good to have you home.

Say, what are you doing,
making my favorite chili?

That's right.

I didn't see daddy
when I came in.

- Where is he?
- He's in Washington.

- Well, what's he doing there?
- I don't know.

But he's going to call tonight

and let us know
what's happening.

Well, Bobby,
you know about that?

Well, I found out about it
when mama got off the plane.

Well.

Mm.

Well?

That's terrific.
It's great.

Well, mama, you know what?
You're a really good cook.

It's one of the worst things
about being a bachelor

is the carryout food.

I swear, I could sail to China

on the cartons that
I've carried through my door.

It's nice to have somebody
to cook for.

Don't forget,
my door is always open.

A few more months of this

and I wouldn't be able to fit
into any of my clothes.

Nothing would please me more
than to see you

put on a few pounds
from good cooking.

You know, mama

it's been nice being with you
the last few weeks, but...

...I don't know how much longer
I can stay in Dallas.

What do you mean?

Well, I don't think I can
make it in this town.

There just aren't
any doors left open for me.

That can't be true.

Well, it is.
Yeah.

You gotta be a member of
the club, and I'm an outsider.

But, Cliff,
with your background in the law?

All the senate committees?

Doesn't mean a thing.

You got to have
money to make money

and especially in Dallas.

And that's something
I just don't have.

- Cliff--
- No, wait. No, come on, now.

We-we got to enjoy this meal,
really.

I don't wanna lay
my problems on you.

Dave Warren called today
from Galveston.

- Oh, yeah? How is he?
- Fine.

Just wanted to report that

the refinery's
running up to capacity again.

Well, that's good.

Thinking of getting rid of some
of those Chardonnay of his.

[Clayton] Think it's something
you want to look into?

[Dusty] I'd like to find out why
he wants to sell them first.

Alright.
Just let me know.

Dessert, Sue Ellen?

Oh, no, thank you.
I never touch dessert.

As a matter of fact,
I think it's time

that I put John Ross to bed.

Dusty, I was just wondering,
after I put the baby to bed

maybe you and I could drive
into San Angelo

listen to some music
or maybe see a movie?

Except for weekends, we get to
bed pretty early around here.

Start the day by getting up
at sunrise.

Of course.

- Maybe some other time.
- No.

Darlin', if you wanna go
to San Angelo tonight

then that's what
we're gonna do.

No, no.

I, uh, think I'll take John Ross
to bed and go to bed myself.

Come on, darlin'.

Come on.

Oh.
Say good night.

Here we go.

- Goodnight, darlin'.
- Goodnight, dear.

You can't go pushing yourself
too hard, yet, Steven.

I know, daddy.

I know.

[Ms. Ellie] Well, Jock, I don't know.

How long will you be gone?

I see.

Yes, I know
you're excited about it.

Well, if it's what you want,
it's alright with me.

No, I-I haven't
seen John Ross.

He's with Sue Ellen
in San Angelo.

I don't know.

Alright, just a minute.

J.R., your daddy
wants to talk to you.

Okay.

I'll have a little more
of that chili.

Jock, I'll talk to you
tomorrow night.

Alright.

[clears throat] Hi, daddy.

- Yes, sir.
- Mama, how's daddy doing?

Did he say what
this is all about?

- Is Dave with him?
- How's he feeling?

[sighing] Your daddy's fine.

He just got out of a meeting
with the state department.

Dave was with him.

What's he doing
at the state department?

Well, it seems
they've just signed

an aid agreement with one of
the countries in South America.

He didn't say which one.

And it seems that there's
an enormous amount of oil

down there
that's never been tapped

and they want Jock
and some other Texas oil men

to go down there and, in effect

start them in the oil business.

- Who else is gonna go?
- Do you get to go?

Oh, I bet he's real excited
about that.

When's he going?

Well, he doesn't know
when he goes

but he's-he's talked
to Bo Kinney and Tom Harris

and he's called Punk.

And now I guess...

J.R., what is it?

What's wrong?

It's daddy.
He's real upset.

Well, what about?

About Sue Ellen having
John Ross.

He told me
in no uncertain terms...

...no matter what, he wants
that boy back on Southfork.

[J.R.] Well, didn't you understand

why I sent you down
to the Southern Cross?

- I did, Mr. Ewing.
- So what's this a report about?

I can't use anything in here.

I did everything I could.

That ranch is like a fortress.

There's no way to get in there.

Does she ever leave?

She did, but they were
always together.

He drives her everywhere.

- And my boy? Is he with them?
- Sometimes.

Doesn't she ever
go out at night?

Not when I was down there.

And once they go into the house,
there's no way

to know what's happening.

I mean,
I even used a telescope

but I couldn't see a thing.

You can give your bill
to my secretary.

You don't want me to go back?

Not if that's all
you can come up with.

I'm sorry, Mr. Ewing.

Hello, Harry?

J.R. Ewing here.

I want you to come over
to my office today.

Yeah, I need a favor.

Grandma, what are you doing?

I found out when I was in Europe
what bad shape I'm in.

Well, no more.

Alright, but don't overdo it.

Lucy, I think we ought to talk.

About what?

About you and Mitch.

There's not that much
to talk about.

Well, there is when
you're living apart.

We just didn't belong together.

Like Ray said,
we were oil and water.

You loved each other.

We still do.

But he can't live my way,
and I can't live his.

All my life,
I thought the only thing

I needed was
someone to love me.

I guess sometimes
love isn't enough.

Maybe you should
have stayed in school

not become
Ms. Young Dallas.

Then it would've been
something else.

The point is Mitch is
never gonna be able to

afford the things that I want

especially if
we have children.

You're not pregnant?

No, grandma, that's the one
mistake I didn't make.

I know you're busy, but I really
needed to talk to you.

Oh, that's alright, mama.

I can't concentrate today,
anyway.

It's about Cliff.

I don't know what to do.

- What's the matter?
- Well, he's really down.

He's beginning to talk
about leaving Dallas

starting over somewhere else.

- Again?
- What do you mean?

Mama, whenever Cliff has
a disappointment in life

he blames it on Dallas.

Now, that's not fair, Pam.

Yes, it is. Cliff can take care
of himself just fine.

I can give him so much help.

I wanted so badly
to tell him that.

Well, tell him and watch him
grab on with both hands.

Pam, this isn't
like you at all.

Mama, for the past few years,
I have been worrying about Cliff

I have been taking care
of Cliff

and he always lands
on his feet.

At this time, he is not nearly
as important to me

as he used to be.

He's your brother.

Yes, and he's your son

and I'm your daughter
and you have Katherine.

But I don't have a baby,
and I'm never going to have one.

And that's all I care about.
That's all I think about.

Pam.

You know what I think?

I think I made a mistake

when I took John Ross
to Sue Ellen.

Without her here, there wouldn't
be anybody to take care of him.

J.R. doesn't care about him.

I know he's not mine, but it,
it could almost be the same.

I'd love him
and I'd take of him.

Oh, mama,
I want a baby so badly.

[J.R.] Harry, come on in here.

I really
appreciate this, boy.

Always glad
to accommodate you, J.R.

How about a drink?

Is this business or pleasure?

Yep, could be
a combination of both.

- Bourbon, straight.
- Right.

Sit down.

You, uh, got
any time off coming?

Oh, I could always
arrange it. Why?

Well, I might want you
to take a little trip.

Where?

Do you know anybody
in San Remo or San Angelo?

- Police, or otherwise?
- Both.

Well, I know a lieutenant

who transferred down there
from Dallas.

We were pretty close.

I'm sure he'd have
some contacts.

That'd be fine.

What is it you want, J.R.?

Action.

I've had a private investigator
working for me down there.

- Didn't do any good at all.
- Yeah?

Harry, I want you to go
to San Remo.

Contact your friend.

I don't care how you do it
or how much it costs.

I want you to get my son

off Southern Cross ranch
back to Southfork.

That won't be easy.

It means a lot of money to you,
Harry.

Whatever you have to do,
bring my boy back to me.

Consider it done.

I always remember my friends.

I'll leave this afternoon.

Bobby, trust me.

I mean, a man with your money
and standing

plus the fact that
you're a state senator--

- It's in the bag.
- Are you sure?

I don't want anything
to go wrong.

Nothing can go wrong.
You're exactly what they want.

Alright. Now, how long
is it going to take?

Once you sign the paper,
a month at the tops.

Well, that's not too bad.

- Jack, I wanna thank you.
- My pleasure, senator.

Well, mama, I feel
real bad about Lucy, too

but I always thought there was
something peculiar

about that boy.

Going into medical research,
there's no money in that.

No wonder she left him.
Ah-ha.

Well, there's a lot more
to marriage than money.

Well, I guess so.

- Evening.
- Hey.

Hello, Bobby.

Mama, where's Pam?
I saw her car.

Well, she came home
a little while ago.

- She's probably upstairs.
- Okay, thanks.

Pam?

Pam.

I know how much not being able
to have a child

has bothered you.

But I think
we can work it out.

How?

We're going to adopt a baby.

Adopt?

Honey, I met with a lawyer
friend of mine.

He's worked the whole thing out.

We have an appointment
with an adoption agency

tomorrow morning.
We'll have a baby, soon.

Really, Bobby?

Oh, will we really?

I promise, honey.
I promise.

Oh.

Well, I haven't seen
that much of her myself lately.

- Is she married?
- Why do you care?

No, she's not, unless it
happened within the last month.

Here you go.

Ah, we didn't order
any champagne.

Oh, compliments of the house.

- You're kidding.
- That's what I said.

Milton hasn't bought

Hey, everybody,
this is my sister, Afton.

- Hello.
- Hi, Afton.

This is Harriet, Beth,
Robert Jim, Bob.

- Good to meet you.
- Fred, and this is Judy.

You're really good.

- Thank you. Milton?
- Who's Milton?

Yeah, he sent us a bottle
of champagne.

- He did?
- Uh-huh.

Well, he owns the place.

You mind if I steal Mitch
for a few minutes?

- Oh, no.
- Go ahead.

I'll be back.

So where are we gonna go
after we leave here?

Who's Judy?

What's this Milton guy sending
me a bottle of champagne?

He doesn't know me.

Well, he knows me,
doesn't he?

And you're my brother.

You're not fooling around
with him, are you?

What's that supposed to mean?

I mean, you can do a lot better

than a guy who owns
a dump like this.

No, thanks.

I see. You mean, better like
you did with Lucy?

Lucy and I don't live
together anymore.

I know,
and why is that?

Now, why do you make it
sound like it's my fault?

Because I know you
and your stupid pride.

And I know about Lucy
being Ms. Young Dallas.

I just can't believe
you let her get away.

Oh, I like your way
of putting things

"Let her get away," as in
"The Ewings have money?"

Mm-hmm, that's exactly
what I mean.

Mitch, you may like the idea of
being poor all your life.

I don't.

- I don't wanna be poor.
- So?

Well, it's one thing
to want money

and it's another thing
to figure out how to get it.

It's easy.

You just have to take it
from the ones that have got it.

Would you fix up
a couple plates, please?

Morning.

- Morning.
- Morning, Bobby.

- Morning.
- Morning.

How are you feeling, Pam?

You looked a little peaked
last night.

Well, I feel fine.

I feel better than
I have in a long time.

Any particular reason?

Yes, there is.

Well, are you going to tell us,
or must I face the day

without knowing?

You know, you just might face
the day lying flat on your back.

Oh, come on, Bobby,
don't be so touchy.

Is there something you
wanna tell us, Pam?

I suppose so.

Bobby and I have
an appointment today

to see about adopting a baby.

Oh, Pam, that's fine.

- That's wonderful.
- Oh, that's real nice.

No wonder you're so excited.

Well, just because Sue Ellen
ran off with John Ross, I..

Well, what are you
talking about, J.R.?

Well, mama, I just don't
think it's proper to

to replace the boy
with an adoption, that's all.

We're not trying
to replace him, J.R.

It has nothing to do
with John Ross.

Yeah.
That's all this family needs.

- Another half-breed.
- J.R.!

I might just see if that hat
of yours fits in your mouth.

Now, stop it!

- Hey, Punk.
- Good morning, folks.

- How you doing, buddy?
- Good morning.

Ms. Ellie,
I'm sorry to barge in on you

but I had some really
good news this morning

and I wanted to tell you
all personally.

J.R., you were sure right
when you asked

Ray to head up that
Lovitt deal of ours.

Well, what is it, Punk?

I just got a call this morning

and those units are
selling like wildfire.

Now, we only broke ground on
this yesterday, you know.

But we're already half sold out

and that means that we're going
to be out and in the black

before we even put a building
on that property.

Old Ray here have
a piece of that?

That's right.
Punk offered me a piece.

I knew it was too good
to pass up.

Donna, it looks like you married
yourself a real businessman.

Didn't I, though?

[Rebecca] I'm worried about her, Cliff.

She'll be alright,
believe me.

She's a strong lady.

You wanna do that part?

Not being able to have a child

seems to have
really changed her.

So did finding out
that you were still alive.

But believe me,
she adjusted to that

so she'll adjust to
not having any kids.

Neither one of you seems to
worry much about the other.

That's because I'm the one
that's got the problems.

I am so sick and tired of

beating my head up
against a stone wall.

Cliff...

...if there was something
worthwhile for you

would you stay here in Dallas?

That's a strange question.

The truth is I need your help.

Here we go.

The best omelet in town.

- Looks wonderful.
- Hey, you gotta try that.

Okay.

What kind of help?

There's a small company
my husband left me when he died.

You own a company?
What kind of company?

They make parts
for drilling rigs.

Really? Well, what's that
got to do with me?

Well, I don't understand
much about business.

It's being run by trustees

and I'm not sure
it's being run properly.

Yeah, mama, I'm a lawyer.
I'm not a businessman.

But you do understand
good business practices

and bookkeeping.

Could you at least check
the company out?

I need somebody I can trust.

Yeah, I'll check it out.
Now, do me a favor.

Sure. What?

You check out the omelet
before it gets cold.

Yeah, I wondered where
you'd gotten off to.

- Ha-ha.
- Did you have a good time?

Oh, it was wonderful.

I let him take me wherever
he wanted to go.

Oh, boy, I missed you.

Felt kind of funny
not having you around.

Oh, I was only gone an hour.

I know that.

I just wish I could've
gone with you.

Oh. You'll be able to
ride again.

- Oh, he's a wonderful horse.
- Yes, he is.

You know, I learned
to ride on his granddaddy.

I was about-a little kid,
about two, three years old

and his granddaddy
was a big, tall horse.

He was 16 hands high.
Come on, Sam.

- Well, how'd you control him?
- Well, it wasn't easy.

My daddy put me upfront
and he'd sit up back

and he'd hand the reins up to me
and I'd sit up there

and I'd pretend like
I was all alone.

And it wasn't too long
before I was.

Seems like I spent all
of my life on horses.

It's real different up there

sitting up there and mostly
using your knees

to tell him
where you want him to go.

And then you're off

riding, riding full tilt

face into the wind.

You must have had
a wonderful childhood.

[Dusty] Oh, yeah. It was.

I was young and I was strong

and even when I was riding
the rodeo circuit

I never thought anything was
gonna happen to me.

I guess I was wrong about that.

Oh, Sue Ellen.

I wish you could've
married me then.

Well, I wouldn't have
loved you any more.

Whatever it is that you lost

I'll make it up to you.

Because all that I want is for
you and I to stay together.

[Bobby] Mrs. Bruce,
I don't understand.

When I spoke to Mr. Prescott,
he assured me--

I did talk to Mr. Prescott

and told him that
I could help you

but I had no idea that time
was so important to you.

Well, time is very
important to us.

But what I don't understand is

how there can be
a shortage of babies.

Mr. Ewing, with the new birth
control methods, abortions

and the surprisingly
large number of unwed mothers

who choose to keep
their children

well, we have more
people wanting to adopt

than we have children.

Well, how many
of those other people

can offer the things
to a baby that we can?

Now, look, I don't like
the way that sounds

any more than you do,
but it's a fact.

And aside from our
financial position

we have a lot of love
to give a baby.

I'm sure you do

and if I could help you,
I would.

You mean it could be
18 months or more?

I'm afraid so.

Well, um, you'll be sure to let
us know if there's any change?

I'll be in touch immediately.

Thank you.
Come on, honey.

Thank you.

- Pam, I'm sorry.
- I know.

Look, there are other adoption
agencies. We'll hit them all.

Now, one of them has gotta be
able to help us.

Morning, ladies.

- Good morning, J.R.
- Good morning.

Ah, Mr. McSween
is waiting for you.

Is it alright that
he's in your office?

Oh, yeah.
Yeah, that's just fine.

Harry. Didn't think
I'd see you back this soon.

No reason for me to stay
in San Angelo.

What does that mean?

I couldn't do you any good.

The Farlows have too
much power down there.

Nobody wants to
go up against them.

They run San Remo county like
the Ewings do Braddock.

There's gotta be somebody.

Nobody down there
is gonna help

an outsider against
the Farlows.

And that ranch of theirs
has men all around it.

- Are they armed?
- They sure are.

J.R., it would take an army

to get your son
off the Southern Cross.

Maybe not an army.

Maybe a Trojan horse.

Afternoon, mama.

Well, you're home early, J.R.

Yes, ma'am.

No sense hanging around
the office.

Never get anything done.

I keep thinking how much
I miss John Ross.

So do I, J.R.
We all do.

I keep wondering what's
happening to him down there.

Do you think Sue Ellen
would let me see him?

Yeah, I'm sure she would.

She was always
fond of you, mama.

Yeah, if you called her
personally

and asked to see John Ross,
I'm sure she'd let you see him.

I might just do that.

It'd probably be best
to take the helicopter.

That way you could land
right on the ranch.

That's a good idea.

Operator, would you give me
the telephone number

of the Southern Cross ranch
in San Angelo?

- Pam?
- Hmm?

- Pam, honey?
- Ah?

- Pam?
- Oh.

Honey? Honey?

Pam?

It's alright.

- Bobby?
- Yeah, it's me.

You're having a dream.

Mm. I don't remember.

I know.

Just go to sleep.

It'll be alright.

Just go to sleep.

Okay.

Mama, what are you
doing up so late?

Hmm.

You're a fine one to ask that.

I'm excited about flying down
to San Angelo

and seeing John Ross.

I thought maybe some cocoa
would calm me down.

You miss him an awful lot,
don't you?

You know, you haven't had
a whole lot of luck

with grandchildren.

Do you remember how I used to
sit in that chair

over there for hours
trying to feed Lucy?

I just remember she was awful
stubborn, that's all.

She still is.

But I was just so happy
to have her here.

What a beautiful child she was.

Mama, what if there weren't
gonna be

any more Ewing grandchildren?

Well, you said you
and Pam were gonna adopt.

That should take care of that.

Is there a problem?

Would you believe a wait
of almost two years?

Well, that does surprise me.

I know two years seems
like a long time

but it's not really.

Not when it's that important
to both of you.

Well, I don't know
if Pam can wait, mama.

I don't know if she can
handle it.

Well, she may have to
if there's no other way.

Well, I don't know
whether there is or not.

But whatever it takes,
one way or the other

Pam's gona have a child.

Look there.

Oh, look at it!

[laughing] Look, look!

Look.

- Hello.
- Hello!

Oh, Sue Ellen, thank you
for letting me see him!

Oh, well, he's your--

It's grammy, darling!
Come to your grammy!

Oh, I know you love him.

You've gotten so big!

- I hardly know you anymore.
- Isn't he?

Do you see it? Yeah!

- Helicopter!
- Oh, he's so beautiful.

Sue Ellen, he's so beautiful.

I'm so--

You didn't tell me J.R.
was coming with you!

Oh, Sue Ellen, I-I'm sorry,
I suppose I should have

but I didn't even know myself
until this morning.

Anyway, he misses
the baby so much.

He won't cause any trouble,
Sue Ellen.

John Ross, look at grammy.

Is there anyone
you won't use, J.R.?

Well, what's that supposed
to mean, honey?

Ms. Ellie,
having her lie to me

so that you can
get on this ranch.

Oh, now, wait a minute.
My mama doesn't lie to anybody.

And if I came with her,
that was my doing, not hers.

I mean, after all, she's playing
with my little boy over there.

Don't do anything, J.R.
I'm warning you.

Well, what am I going to do?
I'm surrounded by armed men.

Come on, Sue Ellen.

Let me see the boy.

Please.

You see any butterflies?

Mrs. Ewing, Clayton Farlow.

Not the best of circumstances
to meet under.

That's unfortunately true.

I can understand how you
and Mr. Ewing miss the boy.

Since he's been here,
he's brought a lot of joy to me.

My husband feels he belongs at
Southfork. He's a Ewing.

[chuckles] That he is.

But what my son wants
is just as important to me

as what J.R. wants is to you.

And he wants Sue Ellen
and John Ross here.

Boy belongs with his mother.

My husband usually
gets what he wants.

You're not in Ewing country now.

And what happens is between
Steven and J.R.

Not our fight.

You alright, darling?

Yes, I'm just fine.

Well, I do believe you
two belong together.

Just to show you
how reasonable I am

I'm gonna make you a deal.

You give me back
John Ross right now

and I'll divorce
Sue Ellen tomorrow.

You're never gonna get
John Ross away from me.

Well, now, never is a long,
long time, darlin'.

I wouldn't count on that.

I wanna see my boy.

As you can see

the company
for the last ten years

has had an excellent
ratio of earnings

and gross sales.

I see that the gross sales

have remained the same for that
length of time.

Thank you.

That's not a compliment.

I beg your pardon?

You have heard about
decontrol of oil prices.

[laughing] Well, we're not an oil producer.

- That has no effect on us.
- But it should.

Drillers all over the states of
Oklahoma and Texas

are trying to get their hands
on rigs and derricks

and there just aren't
enough to go around.

And you supply the equipment
for the derricks.

But I don't see
any plans for expansion

or speeding up the output.

I mean, for the next few months,
the gross should double

the sales should triple

and I just don't see
any indicator here.

As trustees, we don't believe
in capital investments

of a speculative nature.

Besides, there's no reason to
assume that the demand

for derricks will continue.

Mr. Dorsey, you're the manager
of this company.

Do you think that the demand
will continue?

Yes, sir.

I've tried to get
expansion funds from them

with no results.

Well, if you want your company
to maintain a nice, safe income

then your trustees should do
exactly what they've been doing.

Mrs. Wentworth,
we make what we consider

sound financial investments.

As long as you wish
to retain us

we will continue to do so.

You think the company
should be doing better?

I know it.

Gentlemen,
I agree with Mr. Barnes.

Wentworth Tool & Die
no longer requires trustees.

It will be run
by the family again.

Mr. Dorsey, pending the approval
of the new president

I'd like you to stay on
as plant manager.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you, gentlemen.

I really need you now.

I've really burned my bridges.

Well, what is this about
the family running the company?

Well, that's you,
of course.

I want you to take over
the presidency.

If you look
at the financial statement

you'll see it pays very well.

Of course, it means that
you have to stay here in Dallas.

Oh...

You see, I thought
I was the manipulator

but you seem to have
orchestrated this whole meeting.

I thought I was going
to lose you again.

So, will you take the job?

Only if the president can take
the owner out to lunch

on my new expense account,
of course.

Agreed.

Here. Oh.
John Ross! Ha ha.

- That's a good boy.
- Hey, that's great.

Here you go, boy. Here. Got it.

- Do it again.
- There he goes.

Go get it, go get it!

Oh, John Ross, you're so good.

- That's a good boy.
- Come on, John.

Hey, John Ross!
Looky here.

Go fetch that, boy!
Go on and get it!

Yeah. Here, look here.
Here's the ball.

[laughing] That's a good lad.

Oh, I tell you,
that's wonderful, isn't it?

We're near the helicopter, mama.

Well, what do you mean?

If I tried to get John Ross
on that thing, they'd nail me.

They wouldn't
lay a glove on you.

J.R., I don't think
that's the right thing to do.

Come on, mama.

Here, take John Ross.
Take him now.

There you go. Good, ma'am.

Ms. Ellie, no! No!

Come on, now.

Sue Ellen kidnapped the boy
from Southfork.

We're only taking
what's rightfully ours.

Now, come on, get in.

[Sue Ellen] Ms. Ellie, please!

Come on, mama. You know how much
that boy means to my daddy.

He wants him back on Southfork.
Now, come on. Please, get in.

Ms. Ellie,
let the courts decide.

Mama?

Please, Ms. Ellie.

John Ross belongs on Southfork.

Please!

He may belong on Southfork,
but not this way.

Sue Ellen, I'm sorry.
