Original subtitles

The airline is withholding information. You're not telling me what it is.

- Bobby. - It's Jenna's life!

Your seeing other men is none of my business?

You're the one who's married here, not me. You're the one who's being unfaithful.

Why would he want you to forgive me in the first place?

He said if I didn't, we might not have a chance...

-...of getting back together. - What?

You're a born loser, Sue Ellen. The only institute that works for you is this:

I don't wanna see you again.

Jenna!

I appreciate it, I really do.

But I just don't think I'm gonna need your testimony in court.

But if my lawyers think so, I'll give you a call, guaranteed.

All right, all right.

Boy.

More people despise Barnes than I thought.

Someone else with a grudge?

He's stifled a lot of people in this town, you know that?

- J.R., you still owe these phone calls. - All right.

Oh, get a hold of Harv right away.

And I'll talk to Dennis tomorrow. Anything else?

Some man called about five or six times.

He wanted to talk to you and only you about the trial.

He wouldn't leave a name or number.

- Another grudge. - Wonderful.

We go to court next week and all I got is a handful of personal vendettas.

Well, that does it for me. I'm going home. You need a lift?

Yeah.

A week's along time. We'll come up with something.

Say, Bobby. anything more on Jenna's appeal?

No, nothing yet.

You know, the more I see Bobby moping around without Jenna...

...the more I think he ought to get back together with Pam again.

Do you mean that? I thought you hated her.

Sometimes you have to put other people's feelings above your own, you know.

Yeah, maybe I could help them.

Pardon me?

Well, it Pam does get back together with Bobby...

...she might not support that weasel Barnes.

And any support he loses is leverage I gain.

But wouldn't Bobby and Pam see through that in a minute?

Oh, sure, absolutely.

And they'd be mad as hell, at first.

But it would start them thinking about getting back together again.

And the more they think...

[CHUCKLES]

Listen, what do you mean this kind of leak is unavoidable?

Seals break, casings crack.

The way we've pumping 340, we're gonna wear out every working pan.

It's gonna get worse?

It's just a small leak. It'll only take a couple of days to locate and repair.

The Texas Energy Commission does not seem to share your confidence.

The TEC doesn't usually shutdown production...

...every time something like this happens, either.

What do you mean?

I mean that the leak is not the problem.

Are you telling me that they're trying to make an example out of us?

Well, I'm saying that we ran into a guy who got out of the wrong side of the bed.

- There's just no reasoning with him. - I'm telling you to get that thing fixed.

I wanna be back in production right away, and if I am not...

...then you are gonna be reasoning with the unemployment office.

That's right.

[CLIFF SIGHS]

I'll tell you, it I were paranoid, I'd think that J.R. Ewing was behind this.

Cliff, don't you think you're overreacting a little?

Hey, I borrowed money against the production of those fields.

- I can't afford to shut down. - It's not forever, it's just for a few days.

Yeah, in a few days, the bank gets very nervous about my cash flow.

Ha-ha. Well, I don't think you have to worry about that.

I am going to need that money when our case for Ewing Oil comes to court.

Well, Cliff, I told you, between us, we have more money than we need.

You still feel that way?

Well, of course I do. Why?

Because J.R. is not the only Ewing we're fighting here.

Well, we've been through that already.

Yeah, but that was before Jenna got sent to prison.

Well, nothing's changed.

Ah. Thank you, sis.

Hey, I want you to come and have dinner with Jamie and me.

Well, if it's Chinese, I think I'll pass.

Okay.

Better wash up. We can at least ride down the elevator together.

BOBBY: Come on, Norman, you owe me one.

I owe you more than one, Bobby, but you're asking for something I don't have.

I talked to that flight attendant.

She told me she didn't hear or see anything unusual during that flight...

...but she made it very plain that someone in the front office...

...knows a lot more than they're saying.

- I don't know. - If this airline is withholding information...

- Crazy! -...and you're not telling me--

- Bobby. - Look, it's Jenna's life!

Now, was something found on the plane? Did somebody overhear something?

You've gotta tell me what it was.

I promise that nothing will happen to your job...

...or to you, all right?

We've had a lot of trouble with hijackings recently.

I know that.

Well, our security have tried to come up with ways to prevent them.

01 ways to cope with them once they occur.

I'm not following what you're saying, Norman.

Obviously, we haven't come up with a way to prevent them...

...but we have come up with a way to monitor them once they're in progress.

- Monitor? - A hidden camera in each section.

Very much like a bank...

...or those fast-food stores that photograph the day's comings and goings.

You have film of that flight?

Tape. Anyway...

It's still experimental and we don't have it on all our planes.

And I don't know whether it's on Veronica Robinson's. I'd have to check.

- All right, check! - But even if it were, Bobby...

...once the plane lands safely, the tape's either destroyed or used over.

- The odds aren't good here. - They're the only odds I've got.

Now, how soon can you find out?

Like I said, the whole thing's very confidential for obvious reasons.

A lot of the employees here don't even know about it.

I'd have to be very discreet, but I promise you that I'll work as fast as I can.

Would you call and let me know how you're doing?

Yeah, I'll keep you posted.

- I'm sorry about blowing up. - Forget about it.

Thanks.

I'm sorry, Miss Jamie...

...but Mrs. Ewing says she does not wanna see you.

Oh, is that so? Well, thank you, Teresa.

Sue Ellen, you can't hide in here.

Perhaps you didn't understand what Teresa said.

We have to talk.

Ha. I have said everything to you that I'm going to say.

When I first came to Dallas, to Southfork...

...you were the first person to treat me like a human being.

- That was a stupid mistake. - And I appreciated that, then and now.

I'm here because I care about you.

You care about me?

Yes.

And I'm mad as hell at you.

You're mad at me?

Don't you think you have it backwards?

What's backwards is your attitude.

You're blaming me for not telling you about J.R. and Mandy Winger.

You bet I am.

You could have told me about it before Marilee Stone did.

I didn't know how to.

The last time I spouted off to you about J.R. and his girlfriends, I hurt you terribly.

So instead you let that woman humiliate me in public?

I didn't let her do anything.

Oh, and you really tried to stop her, didn't you?

That's not the point.

Oh, really? What is?

The point is you're blaming me and Marilee Stone...

...and anyone else you can for something that is your fault.

Oh, a lecture, hmm?

No, just a little truth.

The only one who can stop J.R. from hurting you, Sue Ellen, is yourself.

I can't control what J.R. does.

Can't or won't?

Jamie, you just don't understand.

I understand that as long as J.R. Ewing is your husband...

...well, that's your problem.

But burying your head in the sand is no solution.

And blaming your friend is not fair.

Sue Ellen, you have to do something.

And when you realize that, you can count on me to help.

[SLOW PIANO MUSIC PLAYING] [CHATTERING]

Would you like to order now, Mr. Ewing?

No, I'm fine.

I just came to see the show.

I'll take another drink.

WAITRESS: Here you are, Mr. Ewing.

NORMAN: A lot of this isn't important, so I'll run it down to the interesting pans.

I had some of this tape blown up so we can see it better.

I still can't believe you found it.

You guys must live right.

There's Veronica Robinson.

That's Parrish sitting next to her.

Yeah, and she's about to spill a drink on him.

BOBBY: He's doing exactly what he said he did.

Nothing much happens here for a while, except she orders a drink.

But it gets better.

NORMAN: All right, up until now, everything seems normal, but...

Look at this.

- Who's that? - I don't know.

- What's he carrying? - It's a handbag of some kind.

Yeah, and it's full of surprises.

NORMAN: Now, they chat for a while.

Then...

She gets up and goes to the lavatory.

Now, he rings for the attendant...

...and orders a drink for them.

Now...

The drinks come.

Now, watch this.

What's he doing?

Slipping her a Mickey.

NORMAN: I think it was something much more lethal than that.

Good Lord.

All right, now they talk and drink, talk and drink a little bit, and...

Here, here.

Look, the drug already hither.

All right, now she gets up again and she goes to the lavatory.

He's putting something in her bag.

NORMAN: That's probably the drugs the police found in her possession.

He obviously wanted it to appear that she'd overdosed on her own.

And that's it. Five minutes later, the flight landed.

That's when they found the body.

Well, unless I'm crazy, we just witnessed a murder.

J.R.: Hey, Billy, listen. I really appreciate the great work you did...

...on Gold Canyon 340.

Yeah.

No, no, don't apologize.

It didn't have to be a big leak.

[LAUGHS]

Everything worked out much better than I thought it would.

Yeah, the environment is safe...

...and nobody's suffering but that cretin Barnes.

Yeah, okay.

I'll be in touch.

J.R., it's that same man again. I can't get him off the line.

All right.

Yes. JR. Ew'mg have.

MAN [ON SPEAKERPHONE]: Mr. Ewing, you're a hard man to reach.

Yeah, I know that.

- For someone about to lose so much money. - Uh, which brings us to you, huh?

I've flown into town to meet you.

I have some information for sale.

Information that could very well tip the scales...

...in the fight for control of Ewing Oil.

Tip the scales in whose favor?

Whoever buys it.

Who are you?

I'll tell you in person.

Over dinner Thursday night at the Oil Baron's.

Well, I'm sorry, I really like knowing the names of my dinner partners.

I'm someone who knew Jason Ewing very well.

He shared a secret with me, a secret that could save your company.

You say you knew Jason?

Yes .

Well, um, I'd like to ask you a little personal question.

- Personal question? - Mm-hm.

All of Jason's really close friends had a nickname for him.

Could you tell me what that was?

Nickname?

Uh...

Tumbleweed.

What'd you say your name was?

Ha. Over dinner.

All right, the Oil Baron's Club, 7:30, Thursday.

See you then.

Do you think he's for real?

I don't know.

But he knew who Tumbleweed was.

I'd be a feel not to meet him.

Well, I think you must be early. Sue Ellen hasn't come down yet.

Well, actually, I came a little early hoping I'd see you.

Oh, really? Why?

Bobby, I know what you did for Charlie.

And I just wanted to tell you how wonderful I think you are for having done it.

I'm afraid I don't understand.

The birth certificate naming you as Charlie's father.

Yeah.

J.R. told me.

He did what? When?

He paid me a visit the other day.

If J.R. hadn't told me the truth, I might never have forgiven you for lying to me.

But why would he want you to forgive me in the first place?

He said it I didn't, we might not have a chance of getting back together again.

What?

Well, I'm quoting him, not me.

No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it the way it sounded.

I know.

Why would he want us to get back together?

My guess is he thinks I'd change my mind...

...about supporting Cliff in the fight for Ewing Oil.

Boy, is he out of line on that one.

Is he?

I mean, expecting you to abandon Cliff like that.

Oh, well, I hope you understand.

Yes, I do.

Unfortunately.

Why do we always get caught in the middle?

- I'm sorry I'm late. - Well, you're not late.

But I am. Uh...

I'll be seeing you.

Is something wrong?

Oh, no.

Nothing at all.

How did you get in here?

- You know me, darling. - Get out.

- Now, wait a minute. - No, you wait a minute.

- Just who the hell do you think you are? - What are you getting so excited about?

Expecting somebody? - What are you talking about?

I'm talking about that cowboy...

...you gave your phone number to yesterday afternoon at lunch.

You're sick.

You don't deny it?

I didn't give him my phone number.

I gave him the shop where he could buy that dress.

If I'd wanted to give him my number, I would have.

If I'd wanted to give every man my number, I would have.

It'd still be none of your business.

- None of my business? - You bet it isn't!

You're the one who's married here, not me. You're the one who's being unfaithful.

- Look, Mandy. - Don't “Look, Mandy“ me.

You make me feel cheap. I fell in love with you, I didn't want to, but I did.

Now I'm gonna do everything I can to forget about you.

- I don't want you to forget about me. - I can be one of two things to you:

Either your mistress or the woman who breaks up your marriage...

...and I won't be either. Now, get out of my life!

LEE: I don't disagree with you at all.

I mean, that's about the closest you can get to proof without having it.

All right.

Does this mean we can get Jenna released from prison?

Oh, not so fast.

So far, this has nothing to do with Jenna's case.

Well, you just saw the tape.

What we just saw was very probably the murder of a woman on a plane...

...by a man who we can't identify.

And until we can identify him, we can't find him.

Now, judging from the way he moved around that plane...

...he's a professional hit man.

And professional hit men are nearly impossible to find.

But we can start looking for him.

Bobby, even when you find a hit man, it'll be a cold day in hell...

...before he ever puts the finger on the person who paid him.

Isn't catching him enough? Who cares who paid him?

You do.

Because your only hope is that whoever hired him to kill Veronica Robinson...

...also hired him to kill Naldo Marchetta.

And that we can pin both crimes on him.

Bobby, I'm sorry, but I just want you to know the odds going in.

I mean, this is a great lead, but right now, that's all it is.

You and I go back together along way.

I don't have to tell you how important your help is to me.

We'll make optical blow-ups.

We'll circulate them to the FBI and to Interpol.

And believe me, if he's out there, we'll find him.

Thank you.

[SIGHS]

[PIANO PLAYING]

I can name that tune in one note.

It really isn't a tune.

Oh, yes, it is.

I've heard it many times when you're worried like this.

What's going to happen to us, Clayton?

What's going to happen to us as a family if we lose two-thirds of Ewing Oil?

You've been through tougher crises than this.

But the family...

This family wasn't built on wealth.

It was built on character.

And you have to make sure that no matter what happens to the Ewing fortune...

...nothing happens to the Ewing spirit.

With it, the family will survive, and without it, it doesn't stand a chance.

[SIGHS]

I don't know it I have the strength.

Well, together, we do.

Am I interrupting?

- Oh, not at all. - No.

- How's John Ross? - Well, he's sleeping comfortably.

Thank you for taking care of him, Miss Ellie.

Sorry I wasn't here when they sent him home.

It wasn't any problem. You know I love to take care of him.

- How was your day at the group? - The Institute for Advanced Awareness.

It was, um, very encouraging.

Well, sounds very imposing.

It's basic stuff, really.

But sometimes that's what it takes.

Just getting back to basics.

Yes.

- Clayton. - Hi, J.R.

- Mama. - J.R.

Well, you seem troubled.

Well, yes, a little bit.

I learned from Teresa that John Ross was sent home from school because he was sick.

Nothing to worry about. It wasn't any more than a bellyache.

It's not his bellyache that troubles me.

It's the fact that his mother was not home to take care of him.

When the school phoned, I saw no reason to bother Sue Ellen at her group.

- Her what? - The Institute for Advanced Awareness.

Oh, that's wonderful.

My son is so in they send him home from school...

...and you're out some place getting your awareness advanced.

- What do you care what I do? - What are you trying to prove?

I am trying to prove that I can survive in this marriage.

- Why don't you prove you can without it? - J.R., stop this.

- You're protecting her again. - I won't let you talk to her that way.

- It's none of your business! - I won't have you talking to me that way.

I can talk any way I want to because this is my house.

- If you-- - Why don't we go outside?

- I'll teach you some manners. - Clayton, Clayton! J.R.!

Let's get out of here, Ellie.

- Are you all right? - I'm fine.

Well, Sue Ellen...

You've managed to ruin my life, now you're trying to ruin the family.

Maybe these new friends of yours at the Institute for Advanced Awareness...

...will tell you what none of your old friends seem willing to.

You're a loser.

You're a born loser, Sue Ellen.

The only institute that works for you is this:

Sue Ellen, are you all right?

Just thinking.

Well, do you feel like thinking out loud?

[CHUCKLES]

Do you do this every night?

[LAUGHS]

Uh, it's a new habit, but one I'm becoming very fond of.

Well, maybe that's my problem. I've been thinking on an empty stomach.

That is not brain food.

Well, on the other hand, fish would make a terrible midnight snack.

You do have a point.

How was Hong Kong?

Hong Kong.

Poor Pam.

Hmm.

Poor Pam, poor you, poor me.

Do you detect a pattern?

It seems more like an epidemic.

Yeah. The curse of the Ewings.

Oh, there must be a cure.

Nothing known to man.

It wasn't supposed to happen to me.

I know.

The tone of this conversation is very upsetting to me, Mr...?

- Waldron. - Mr. Waldron.

I'm not some two-bit operator in this region.

I'm a wealthy man about to become wealthier.

I'm in the process of legally reclaiming what should have been my family's 50 years ago.

- We understand that. - Then what are you doing here?

We merely wanted to express our concern...

...over the length of time your Gull fields will be idle.

They'll be fixed in a matter of days.

Fixed, maybe, but Mr. Billings of the Texas Energy Commission...

...has informed us that the inspection of the repair work and the process of approvals...

...may take as long as 30 to 45 days.

Now, we consider that a tremendous loss of income.

That's a delay. That's not a loss.

Are you calling in your loans?

No, not yet.

Well, that's good.

Because when my partner and I take over two-thirds of Ewing Oil...

...we're gonna be needing a bank with guts.

So how does your board feel about that?

Well, actually, the board feels that even it you win the suit...

...which they consider a very long shot...

...your control of the company will be short-lived.

What are you talking about?

They feel that as a Ewing, your partner will eventually succumb to family loyalties.

And when she does, J.R. will control two-thirds of Ewing Oil, not you.

And from that point on...

...he'll spend every waking hour driving you out, Mr. Barnes.

Oh, I see, huh? That's how your board feels.

Well, I'll tell you.

You can go back to your board and you tell them for me that...

BOBBY: Well, what's it gonna take to get the bureaucracy off its butt?

All right, how long is that gonna take?

Look, Lee, I'm sorry, I know how hard you're working on this for me...

...but Jenna is not a criminal.

She's not gonna be able to survive in prison.

Okay. Thanks, Lee.

Every hour counts.

Bye.

Lee who?

Lee Spaulding. He's a lieutenant in Homicide.

Looks like we may have a break in Jenna's case.

Yeah, Ray told me.

He also said that you may have a long way to go before you prove anything.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean I should give up, does it?

Hey, Bob.

You know how much I care for Jenna.

But I'm just worried that you might be setting yourself up to get hurt again.

What do you mean?

Well, if this plan of yours doesn't work...

...Jenna could spend the next seven years of her life in prison.

That's along time to wait for the wrong girl.

What are you getting at, J.R.?

I'm just saying...

...maybe you ought to start getting on with your own life.

Now, this doesn't have anything to do...

...with why you told Pam about Charlie's birth certificate, does it?

- She told you? -01 course. Did you think she wouldn't?

She also said you believe we should be back together again.

Well, I didn't exactly say that.

Well, what did you say, exactly?

I said that I knew that telling her about the birth certificate...

...could open up that possibility.

- And I felt I had to tell her. - Oh, you did?

Why? So you could split up her and Cliff?

Well, I don't deny that'd make me happy, but...

Don't you deny that you love Pam more than you do Jenna.

Bobby, I think it's great that you saved Charlie's lite.

I think it's great that you're trying to save Jenna's.

Don't you think it's time you start saving your own?

Thank you, thank you.

Sue Ellen.

Why the long face?

If I didn't have along face, I wouldn't belong here.

I don't mind you coming in with one, but I object to you taking it home.

It's gonna take more than a two-hour encounter session to get rid of this.

It's gonna take longer than that if you don't try.

That's what this place is for.

Right, to solve all my problems.

To try.

[SIGHS]

I don't even know what my problems are.

You don't know what they are?

Or you don't wanna deal with them?

I'm here.

You might as well not be.

[SIGHS]

I think I'm having trouble discussing my problems with perfect strangers.

Imperfect strangers, who could become imperfect friends...

...if you let them.

- I don't need any more friends. - Well.

You must be someone very special.

[SIGHS]

I hurt my friends.

I blamed them 101, um...

For my problems.

I accused them of things that were my fault.

They'll forgive you.

They'd he feels to.

They'd be friends to.

Your dinner guest is waiting at your table, Mr. Ewing.

Well, good, I'm hungry.

MAN: Mr. Ewing.

Hi, how you doing?

Bring me my usual, will you, Dora Mae?

I'm fine, thanks.

Well, Mr. Ewing, I'm glad you could find time to make this meeting.

I think you'll find it time well spent.

Well, I certainly hope so. I haven't got a hell of a lot left.

First I'd like to discuss the terms of our agreement.

All right, shoot.

- Here you are, Mr. Ewing. - Thank you. Thank you, Cassie.

If I could stop Jason Ewing's daughter and Digger Barnes' son...

...from stealing two-thirds of Ewing Oil...

...I think maybe a fair compensation would be 10 percent of Ewing Oil for myself.

Oh, really?

Well, I can give you a lot of money.

But nobody but a Ewing is ever gonna own Ewing Oil.

Cliff Barnes is not a Ewing.

Unless you make a deal with me...

...Cliff Barnes is gonna be sitting in your office.

No way, and I'm not gonna give you a piece of my company.

[LAUGHS]

Mr. Ewing, I'm saving you 66 percent and asking for 10 in return.

Now, I could ask for 20, 30. It'd still be a good deal for you.

I'm just trying to be reasonable.

And if I say no?

You lose control of Ewing Oil to Barnes.

And you lose too.

Ha-ha. Not quite.

No, I'll sell my silence to Barnes.

Let him destroy the information that would prove he has no legal claim on Ewing Oil.

I could go to trial and win.

No, you could go to trial and gamble away your inheritance.

Are you telling me that the papers Barnes has are not real?

Oh, no, they're very real.

But I think I got something better.

Look at it this way.

If what I'm selling doesn't hold up in court...

...you don't owe me a dime.

You can't lose.

Who are you?

[LAUGHS]

Well, who I am doesn't really matter.

What does matter is whether or not we have a deal.

Now, here is my number.

If I don't hear from you real soon...

...Cliff Barnes will hear from me.

See you.

JAMIE: I'm stuffed.

CLIFF: How about some dessert? - Are you kidding?

Did you see what I just ate?

Come on.

You're not supposed to order seconds in a restaurant like this.

And I already embarrassed myself once.

Waiter.

- Here we are. - No, thank you.

Come on.

- Take it away. - Yes, ma'am.

- No, no, I want you to leave it right here. - Yes, sir.

I'm going to burst.

It's the house specialty.

- Just look. - No.

- Look. - Absolutely not.

- You can't get fat looking. - I can.

The chef's gonna be hurt.

He should be tortured.

Now, just take the lid off and look...

...and then you can put the lid back on and we'll go home, I promise you.

I'm gonna get you for this.

[LAUGHS]

I want you to marry me.

Will you be my wife?

Yes.

Yes.

[SQUEALS]

Come on, John Ross. We're gonna be late.

BOBBY: You were up with the chickens.

I have to take care of some things in town early today.

Come on, sweetheart. Say goodbye to everybody.

MISS ELLIE: I'm so glad you're feeling better.

SUE ELLEN: Hurry up. BOBBY: Bye, partner.

Come on.

Here.

DONNA: Bye, hon. - Bye, everybody.

CLAYTON: Bye.

- I think that group is helping her. - Mm.

I think so too.

What group?

Mr. Ewing. Lieutenant Spaulding is hereto see you.

Oh, Lee, come on in.

- I'm sorry to interrupt you-all like this. - Not at all. I'd like you to meet my family.

- This is Ellie Fallow, my mother. - How do you do?

Her husband, Clayton.

How do you do, sir?

And my sister-in-Iaw, Donna Krebbs.

- Hi. - Hi.

Everybody. this is Lieutenant Spaulding.

How do you do? Would you like some coffee?

Uh... No, I'm sorry, ma'am. I really can't stay.

I wanna show you something, Bobby.

Interpol ran a positive ID on the man on the airplane.

His name is André Schumann.

A professional assassin?

As good as they come.

Oh. What are you gonna do now?

We're gonna reopen the Veronica Robinson case.

We're gonna start an all-out search for André Schumann.

Well, that's great news.

Well, Bobby, heh, it might be next to impossible to find this guy.

And even if we do find him...

...there's no guarantee that it'll lead to Jenna's freedom.

- But now we're on the right track. - Oh, we're on the right track.

I mean, even I have to admit that.

Well, I really better be going.

And it was a real pleasure to meet you people.

Hey, I'll show you out, come on.

I'm very grateful, Lee.

Well, I tell you what, Bobby.

When Jenna's out of prison, you can invite me to the wedding.

The wedding, sure.

- Thanks again. - So long.

PAM: Jamie, it's beautiful. I'm so happy for you.

Really? I was awake all night worrying.

Worried? About what?

Worried about making a good wife.

About being a good sister-in-Iaw.

About being accepted into a brand-new family.

Oh, that.

Jamie, Cliff and I are lucky to have you.

Thank you.

Isn't it wonderful? Just what I always wanted.

It's great.

- What a surprise. - Hmm? Oh, uh, you know me.

I know, that's what worrying me. Aren't you rushing into this a little bit?

Hmm? No, no, no. I've given it a lot of thought.

- Yeah. - Mm.

Do you love her?

Uh-- What kind of question is that?

Well, I was just wondering if this has anything to do with the court tight.

I thought you'd be happy for me.

I love her.

The fact that we're involved in a lawsuit together has nothing to do with it.

Well, good, because I'd hate to see somebody else hurt over Ewing Oil.

No one's gonna get hurt, sis. I swear.

SUE ELLEN: Hi, Jamie. - Sue Ellen.

Oh, what's she doing here?

Sue Ellen.

Hi, Sue Ellen. What a nice surprise.

Hello, Pam.

I was just in town doing a little business.

Um, how would you like to have lunch with me?

Anytime.

How's 1:00, Oil Baron's?

- Great, I'll be there. - Good.

Nice to see you. Bye-bye.

Bye.

[LUCY PANTING]

- How you doing? - Hi.

Say, did you ever write Mitch that letter?

Yeah.

I thought you might have.

Was it hard?

No.

Well, in a way.

I mean, how do you tell someone you finally figured out...

...where the relationship went wrong two years after the fact...

...and then make it sound like an astute observation?

What'd you figure out?

Well, that despite all my efforts to do otherwise...

...I finally grew up.

And in the process, I became someone that Mitch always wanted me to be.

Who's that?

Me. I became myself.

Older and wiser?

Older and different.

I don't really need to be the belle of the ball anymore, you know.

I like myself.

That's older and wiser.

Why were you so sure I wrote to Mitch? Is my behavior that obvious?

Nope.

A letter came from him in today's mail.

Oh.

Well, goodness, what do you know.

I told you not to come here.

Honey, you don't understand.

The police have reopened the Veronica Robinson case.

No.

You don't understand.

I don't wanna see you again.

Jenna, you're not listening to me.

They believe she was murdered by this man on the plane.

I don't care about Veronica Robinson.

He probably killed Naldo too.

Why don't you leave me alone?

Oh, Jenna, you've gotta hold on.

You have to have faith.

I had faith in the trial.

I let you build up my hopes.

Oh, no, but this time, it's different.

Yes.

This time it is different.

Because I'm not gonna let you do that to me again.

Jenna?

Look where my hopes got me.

Jenna!

I don't wanna see you again.

Jenna!

Jenna, please stop!

Jenna!

J.R., is everything all right?

What do you mean?

Well, it's been a couple of hours since you asked me to hold all your calls.

That fella I had dinner with, has he called?

No. Was he supposed to?

No.

Can he help you?

[SCOFFS]

He says he can.

Do you believe him?

I can't afford not to, honey.

Who is he?

[SIGHS]

I wish I knew.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Who is it?

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

What are you doing here?

[CHUCKLES]

That's the way you're gonna greet me?

Go away.

Uh--Oh...

After all this time?

Believe me, it hasn't been long enough.

Well, hey.

Heh. Look at this.

Are we coming 01 going here?

What does it look like?

Well, looks like we're moving uptown, maybe, hmm?

New wardrobe, new hairdo, new you.

- Mm. - You got it.

So why don't you just leave?

Oh, look at this. Mm.

Pretty.

Come into a little money?

My life is none of your business.

Oh, now, come on, don't be so sure.

Look, if you've come to town to munch off me, forget it.

You're not gonna do that to me anymore.

[LAUGHS]

Listen to you. I come into town and I could be sick, in trouble, broke.

And what do I get, hmm?

Nothing. Get lost.

Get lost? Just like that?

Your own brother.

I stopped thinking of you as a brother when you stranded Daddy and me in Alaska.

Oh, come on. That was along time ago.

Not long enough.

So why don't you just crawl back to wherever you came from?

You make me sick.

Well, I'm sorry you feel that way.

Because I kind of like it here in Dallas.

I'll see you around, sis.
