All language subtitles for Dallas s09e08 Quandary.eng

I got you back, got my company back.

Once I squeeze that Barnes woman
out of the picture...

...I won't have a care in the world.

- A side of this never occurred to me.
- There are two sides.

There are the Ewings and the Barnes...

...and you made your choice
quite clear tonight.

I want this baby more than anything,
but I want you to want it too.

How can I?

I'm here to stay, so get used to it.

This is no sentimental game, Pam.
You're in the big leagues now.

Hope you can handle the heat,
because you're gonna get plenty.

Charlie's wide awake...

...asking all sorts of questions
about the ball.

Did you tell her why
we came home early?

No.

I feel so badly for them, Jack.

This baby means so much to Donna.

To the both of them.

Well, it's getting late. I better be going.

I'll walk you to your car.

You know, I can't tell you
how good it is to hear you laugh again.

Well, I can't tell you
how good it is to be doing it.

Well, it turned out to be
quite an evening, huh?

- Mm-hm.
- Ha.

Well, hello there.

We've been wondering
what happened to you two tonight.

- Ha, ha.
- Uh, we sort of felt out of place at the ball.

It's my doing, really.

Afraid I'm not real good
at these formal functions.

Donna and Ray must've felt the same way,
because they didn't show up at all.

Yes, do you know anything about that?

Ah, we talked earlier, and Donna said
she felt a little queasy, that's all.

She and Ray decided to stay home.

Was everything all right?

I'm sure it will be.

Well, it's too bad you missed
the award presentation.

Bobby was named Oil Man of the Year.

Oh, that's great.

That's wonderful, Miss Ellie.
I'm... I'm so happy to hear that.

It was truly a Ewing night.

Pamela announced that she's gonna hold on
to Christopher's share of Ewing Oil after all.

That must have been
a real surprise to J.R.

It was for all of us.

I'm so grateful to Pam.

Ewing Oil will stay in the family,
and maybe...

...just maybe, things will get back
to normal around here.

Well, congratulations, Miss Ellie.

Thank you, Jack.

Well, I'm just on my way home,
so I'm gonna say good night.

Good night.
- Good night, Jack.

Good night.

Thanks.

For what?

For going along with me on this.

It's what Ray and Donna wanted.

Yeah.

Well...

Good night.

Good night.

I've gotta have a long talk with Jack.

Jack?
- Mm-hm.

He could be a real help
now that that fool of a woman...

...has decided to run
my company with me.

You know, I've always liked Pam.

I know you've always hated her,
but after what she did tonight...

...I think you might at least
hate her a little less.

Oh, honey. Hell, I love her tonight.

Yeah, she didn't sell me out to Wendell.
I gotta give her credit for that.

But tomorrow's a different story.

When we start butting heads...

...it'll be real nice to have Jack
voting on my side.

- Whose place is this?
- A friend of mine's working in New York.

She said I could use it
until I find a new place.

This time you just let me
take care of that.

This time, I just might.

You know, J.R., there was
a moment tonight at the ball...

...when I... When I saw Sue Ellen...

We're not gonna talk about
Sue Ellen anymore, are we?

Let me finish.

She's like a different person.
I could see it.

Maybe so.

But that doesn't change the way
I feel about you.

Are you sure?

Mandy, when are you gonna realize
that I want you?

Only you.

As much as I want you?

Maybe more.

Why'd I have to fall in love with you?

Oh, everything's falling into place.

I got you back, got my company back.

And once I squeeze that Barnes woman
out of the picture...

...I won't have a care in the world.

I'm worried about him.

Maybe it's better
if Cliff doesn't show up.

You threw him quite a curve tonight.
He was pretty upset.

- How about you?
- I'm surprised you had the guts...

...to show up here, but then, of course,
you're full of surprises tonight.

- Cliff, I know that you just...
- You don't know the half of it!

I break my back, trying to put together
the best possible deal...

...for you and your boy,
and that's the thanks I get, huh?

You humiliate me?
And at the Oil Baron's Ball of all places?

I am grateful for all of your help.

You've got a funny way of showing it.

Cliff, please understand that there's
a side of this that never occurred to me.

No, no, no. There are two sides.

There are the Ewings and the Barnes,
and you made your choice clear tonight.

Well, it's not that simple for me!

I'm through protecting you.

Whatever comes down between you
and J.R. Serves you right.

Is that how you feel about it?

Well, is it?

I'm not sure how I feel about your decision.
Let's just sleep on it, okay?

No problem.

Ray...

Look, I never wanted this baby to be
the reason that we got back together.

Now, you promised me that it wasn't.

Do you remember that?

Yes, I remember.

Were you lying?

Of course I wasn't lying.

I love you, Donna.

Then you're gonna have to help me...

...because we have a problem,
a big problem...

...and I cannot deal with it by myself.

Honey, I told you how I felt
about this last night.

That we could try again.

That's right.

And maybe the next one
would be healthy.

Well, what if it isn't?

What if it has Down syndrome too?
Some other problem?

At this age in my life,
there's always that possibility.

Do we just get rid of that baby too?

I don't have all the answers, Donna.

Well, look...

Maybe we can find the answers together.

Together?

It sounds to me like you've made up
your mind already.

I want this baby.

I want this baby more than anything.

But I want you to want it too.

How can I?

Because it's ours.

You're afraid. So am I.

We're both scared to death...

...because we don't know enough
about the problem.

All right, just go with me
this afternoon to see Dr. Rose.

And hear more bad news?

No.

Hear the facts.

Please just say you'll go with me.

All right.

Thank you.

"Westar/Ewing Oil takeover a bust. "
I like that.

Jackie, have you been able
to reach my wife yet?

Yes and no.

I don't know what that means.

Well, she's at Jack's apartment, all right...

...but she won't take your calls.

Thank you.

- Hello.
- Jamie, hey, I've been worried about you.

Goodbye, Cliff.

- Just give me a chance to explain.
- I'm tired of your explanations.

This was just dropped off.
It's addressed to you and Jamie.

- Yeah, just put it down.
- It was hand-delivered.

The messenger asked
that you respond right away.

Well, I'll be darned.

What is it?

It's an invitation to dinner tonight
with someone from Marinos Shipping.

- Tonight.
- The Marinos Shipping?

It looks like it.

I wonder what the biggest oil tanker
company in world wants with me.

Well, could it be good news?

Lordy, I hope so. Tell him we accept.

- Both of you?
- Yeah.

The invitation's made out
to Mr. And Mrs. Barnes, isn't it?

- Well, I just thought...
- Hey, we will be there.

Don't hang up on me.

Damn it.

What the hell are you doing here?
Don't you have any respect at all?

This is my brother's office.
Nobody's supposed to be here.

Calm down, J.R. If you want me
to go to another office, I'll...

I don't want you in the building.

Well, that's too bad,
because you and I are partners.

But I don't want you
hanging around here.

I'm not hanging around.

I'm gonna be working here
by your side every day of the week.

You can't be serious.

What did you think I meant
last night at the ball?

I don't know,
but I'll tell you what I mean.

I don't want you in my sight,
much less my offices.

- And I always get what I want.
- Your threats aren't going to work.

I'm here to stay, so get used to it.

- Phyllis?
Yes?

I'd like a cup of tea.
A cup of herbal tea, please.

Do you want anything?

This is no sentimental game, Pam.
You're in the big leagues now.

You better hope you can handle the heat
because you're gonna get plenty of it.

And that's no threat. It's a promise.

Will there be anything else?
- No, Phyllis.

Not right now. Thank you.

Okay.

Not bad, huh, Mom?

Pretty good.

Why don't you try?

Oh, I don't think so.

It's easy. I'll show you.

All you have to do is turn sideways...

...and just sidearm it fast and low.

Okay, I'll try.

- Like this?
- Mm-hm.

- Fast and low?
- Uh-huh.

Well, I counted one. How about you?

Uh, that's okay.

All you need is a little practice.

We'll practice together.

Take you up on that.

You know, you haven't mentioned anything
about me not living at home.

Daddy told me you were staying
at Grandma Shepard.

But did he say why?

He doesn't like to talk much
about you these days.

Oh.

You're getting divorced again,
aren't you?

Well, honey,
we're trying to work things out.

How can you work things out
if you're not together?

Well, sometimes it's better that way.

Don't you love each other anymore?

It's not as simple as love.

You and Daddy will work things out.
I know you will.

What Pam did doesn't matter.
It's what you did that counts.

Look, I'm sorry.

Maybe I overstepped my bounds a little,
but I never did anything to hurt my sister.

Cliff, you took advantage of her.

She was under a lot of stress
and depended on your help.

- And you took advantage of her.
I didn't take advantage of her.

Look, just come home with me
where you belong because I miss you.

- What do you want?
- Lunch.

Jamie, look.

Just come home with me
so we can talk this through.

I've said all I'm gonna say, Cliff.

Well, then, don't say anything.
Just come on home.

Please leave.

Okay, look, I've got an idea.

We've got some sort of a dinner invitation,
so why don't I accept for us?

I'll come over, I'll pick you up,
I'll take us over there.

It'll give us a chance
to spend time together.

You don't have to commit
to anything else.

And when it's over with, if you want
I'll bring you back here instead of home.

And that's it. I promise you.

- Who invited us?
- I don't know.

Some bigwig from Marinos Shipping.

Why would they be inviting us to dinner?

I don't know.

I don't know, my instinct tells me
that it could be very important for us.

You call that a dinner date?

You don't turn down an invitation
with a big company like that.

Oh, no? Well, I do.

And you're just gonna have
to apologize to them for me.

Well, what am I gonna tell them?

I don't know.
But you'll think of something.

You always do.

Hey, damn it. You know, you're my wife.

- Don't remind me.
Damn it.

How do you like that?

What are you looking at?

Well, what do you advise families
in this situation to do?

Oh, I don't. It's strictly up to them.

What do they usually choose?

For a variety of reasons,
most choose to abort.

Most? Is that, uh, 60 percent?

Seventy?

More like 98 percent.

But two percent choose not to.

Why is that?

Oh, I can't speak for them.

Surely you must have some idea.

Yes, I imagine that they want the child
no matter what the problems.

Some carry the child to full term...

...and then choose to give
the baby up for adoption.

Who would want to adopt a baby
with Down syndrome?

Oh, Mr. Krebbs, you'd be surprised.

There's a waiting list.

These are very loving children
we're talking about.

Retarded children.

Yeah, to varying degrees.

But some can learn, each to their
own potential, at their own pace.

Medically speaking,
what could we expect?

Uh...

A smaller than average child.

Roughly 40 percent
have a congenital heart disorder.

It is correctable by surgery.

They're prone to respiratory problems.
They have vision problems. Um...

Some have hearing problems
which can result in speech problems later.

All I'm hearing is problems.

Because that's all you wanna hear.

You came to get the facts.
Listen to them.

Is this the kind of baby you wanna raise?

God forgive me, I don't think I do.

In situations like this, when the family
is so divided by the issue...

...I try to encourage them to meet
some of these children firsthand.

I don't see what difference
that would make.

Well, it might ease your mind
no matter what you decide to do.

What do you think? Are you interested?

Sue Ellen.
- Dusty.

Mmm.

I just got back from Wyoming.

I called the clinic,
and they said you were here.

Yes. Free at last.

Actually, they told me it was time
to get on with my life.

Well, looks like you're ready for it.

- How long were you gone?
- Oh, about a week or so.

You know,
I had the funniest dream about you.

Nightmare, really.

I was in this room,
a hospital room, I think.

I was sick and I was scared.

And you came into this room...

...and I was begging you
to get me out of there and save me...

...but you told me that the people
would be there to help me get better.

And I cried and I cried
and you wouldn't listen to me and...

And I told you that I loved you...

...and when you got better,
I'd be here for you.

That wasn't a nightmare.
That really happened.

Sanitarium wouldn't allow
you any visitors, not even family...

...so I bribed this jerk to sneak me in,
and, uh, I just had to see you.

I had to tell you that I love you.

I suppose that was a stupid thing to do.

No. No.

- You went to Wyoming?
- Yes.

I got my divorce.

Actually, Linda divorced me.

Why?

Because I didn't love her.

Because I love you.

I don't wanna be the reason
for your divorce.

It was her choice and mine.

It was no one's fault
and no one's to blame.

Anyway, I'm here in Dallas now for good.

And I wanna be with you
and help you in any way I can.

And some day, lady,
hopefully, to marry you.

Dusty, I know how you feel about me...

...and I know how I feel about you,
but that's all I know.

That's enough.

No, that's not enough.

There are a lot of decisions
I have to make about my life.

About J.R., about John Ross.

And I don't think that I'm ready
to make any decisions about us.

In AA, they teach me to take it
one day at a time.

And they're right.

I can wait.

There are no promises.

No promises.

Did I promise you the world?

You did.

How am I doing so far?

Oh, J.R., I can't believe this place.

It's all yours.

Ours.

That sounds even better.

More champagne?

That sounds pretty good too.

What shall we drink to?

How about the good life?

As long as you're in mine, it will be.

If this geological survey is accurate...

I assure you, it is.

Ha-ha-ha. I can tell you one thing.

Dimitri Marinos knows a lot more
about oil than just transporting it.

This field could be
as big as Alaska's Prudhoe Bay.

Could be bigger.

Dimitri is very, very high on the prospect.

He's high on you as well.

Gold Canyon 340
is quite an achievement.

- Would you care to have some coffee?
- No, thanks.

As you can tell from that report,
we're looking at a very similar venture here.

This oil deposit may be vast...

...but the figures are useless
if we can't get it out of the ground.

We're looking for a partner
who has the know-how to do this...

...which brings us to you.

Have you approached anyone else
with this deal in Dallas?

I spoke to a number of companies
both in Dallas and Houston...

...but they don't have your credentials.

Well, I think you have yourself a partner.

There'll be a number of things to be
worked out before we could have a deal.

Of course.

Um...

How quickly can you draw up a proposal?

I could have my people on it
tomorrow morning.

Well, then, I won't keep you
from your wife any longer.

I'm so sorry she's not feeling very well.

You know, she felt terrible
about not being able to be here.

I'm sure I don't have to mention
that what you've read...

...and what we've discussed
is strictly confidential.

Absolutely.

Good. Thank you for coming.

Thank you.
Thank you for the opportunity.

It's mutual.

Good night.

Good night.

He's perfect.

I don't even know
why we're bothering with him.

I thought Ewing Oil has what we're after.

It does.

But for our plan to work,
J.R. Ewing has to come to us.

Can you think of a more elegant way
to get him over here...

...than through his worst enemy?

We have to talk.

Doesn't your phone work?

I'll walk in with you.

I called you all day yesterday,
and you didn't return one of my phone calls.

Well, look...

I'm sorry about that,
but I couldn't talk to you yet.

- About what?
- About this, about Ewing Oil, and you.

I can't do it. I can't deal with it.

You're the one
who encouraged me to do this.

Not exactly.

I told you whoever you sold Christopher's
shares to wouldn't matter to me.

But you didn't sell them to anyone.

What difference does that make?

What difference does it make?

You are going to work
every day at Ewing Oil.

That's the difference.

For all I know,
you're probably sitting in his old office.

That's great.

I was wrong when I told you
I could live with the fact...

...you'd never love me
the way you love Bobby.

Because I never thought
it would come to this.

I thought I was strong enough that whatever
you could give me would make me happy.

But I also thought that Bobby
would somehow fade into the background.

Mark, if I had to make this choice
all over again, it would still be the same.

How am I supposed to put up with
conversations over dinner every night...

...about your day in the office?
His office?

How are you gonna put him in the past
when you sit in his chair every day?

- That's not fair.
- Not fair?

- You have chosen Bobby over me.
- And that's not true.

And I thought of all people,
you would realize that.

I can't compete with a ghost.

- You aren't.
- Aren't I?

No. And I'm sorry you feel that way.

But if this is how you plan
on dealing with it...

...maybe you shouldn't have
come back into my life.

All right. What's next?

The Oil Advisory Board wants us to send
somebody to the conference next week.

Mm-hm, why don't you go?

I'm sorry I'm late,
but no one told me about this meeting.

Oh, it's just a weekly staff meeting.
You didn't miss much.

Now, um, could you give me
the figures on the...?

Excuse me, J.R., aren't you going
to introduce me to everyone?

Oh, yeah.

I suppose you've all met
my former sister-in-law, Pamela Ewing.

- Now if you would...?
- I'd like to meet with all of you later.

Find out what it is you do, get to know you.
When you get a chance, come by my office.

That'll be fine. Now, Fred...

...what are we doing on the situation
in the suites at the Texas Stadium?

- There are only two that are still available.
How much they going for?

One-point-five million each.
You wanna take one?

Take them both.

The McAndrews newspaper chain
may be coming up for sale.

Are we interested?

- They making any money?
It's losing.

Carl, why on earth do you
want me to latch onto a loser?

Carl, before we pass on this altogether...

...could I see the material you have
on the McAndrew chain?

Sure, yeah.

Thank you.

It appears Marinos Shipping has approached
Barnes-Wentworth on a co-venture.

Something to do
with a new offshore find.

We're looking to expand
our ocean drilling capacity.

This might be worth pursuing.

Pam, you know anything about that?

No, I don't.

Oh.

Well, good job.
See what else you can find.

May I help you?

Yes. I'd like to take this, please.

Well are you sure that's your size?

No, but I'm pretty sure it's yours.

Why don't you slip this on around 8:00?

Yes?

And I will take you to La Champagne
and show you off.

Oh, well, that's quite an invitation.

Is it a date?

How can I refuse?

Hello, Miss Nero?

This is J.R. Ewing of Ewing Oil
here in Dallas.

I understand you're in the market
for a partner on a new venture of yours.

News travels very fast, Mr. Ewing.

It's not easy
to keep a secret in the oil community.

It sounds like I'd be well-advised
to remember that.

How may I help you?

Well, I think it's a case
of how we can help each other.

Ewing Oil is always looking for ways
to branch out...

...and broaden its scope, so to speak.

I understand that Marinos Shipping, uh...

...wants an American company
to do business with.

Of course, if I knew more about the project,
I could be more precise.

I think it would be worth your while
to consider us.

I assume you're aware that I've been talking
to a number of other companies...

...and I had hoped to base my decision
on those discussions.

But I don't think it would hurt
if we were to meet.

Um...

Are you free tonight?

As a matter of fact, I am.

Well, perhaps we can have dinner and talk.

Ah, say at 8:00 at the La Champagne?

That's a lovely place.

Wonderful. I'll see you then.

Goodbye, Mr. Ewing.

I shouldn't really be out here today.
I really got all kinds of work...

...I should be doing back there
at the cattle pens.

Those pens will be just fine without you.

Okay, guys. Good job.

Way to go, Red. Yeah.

- Mrs. Krebbs?
- Yes.

- Hi, I'm Bill Crawford. We talked.
- Nice to meet you.

- Yeah, you too.
- Ray Krebbs.

Hi. So, what do you think of my team?

They look like they're having
a real good time.

Why shouldn't they? They're winning.

Seeing them like this, they...
They look almost normal.

Oh, yeah. In a lot of ways, they are.

Oh, they need a little more attention,
more patience, more love.

There's no way to explain
what you get back in return.

You know, it's funny.

Sometimes I have to remind myself
that they're handicapped.

They really are a lot more
like other children than unlike them.

- Oh.
- Oh!

Nice game, partner.
- Thank you.

- Go get them.
- Thanks.

Mr. Ewing, please.

- Mr. Ewing?
- Yes?

- I'm Angelica Nero.
- Oh, please forgive me.

- No, it's quite all right.
- Would you?

A lot of people are surprised at my being
chief executive officer of Marinos Shipping.

I can understand that.
Can I get you a drink?

- Thank you. I'd love a mimosa.
- Mimosa.

I want you to know that I agreed
to this meeting...

...as a consideration to you
more than anything else.

Well, now don't tell me
you've already locked in a partner.

We're getting very close.

Well, a little competition
never hurt. Who's mine?

Barnes-Wentworth.

Did I say something funny?

Barnes-Wentworth
is no competition whatsoever.

You are a confident man.

I admire that very much.

Unfortunately, confidence alone
won't overcome the problem...

...Dimitri has with Ewing Oil.

What problem is that?

Well, your company has
been in transition...

...since the death of your brother.

You know, there's a very fine line
between transition and instability.

Ewing Oil has never been more sound.

I'm afraid you'll have to go a long way
to convince Dimitri of that.

I'm prepared to go all the way.
Just tell me what you need.

Oh, all right.

But listen, why spoil this lovely dinner
with talk about business?

Fine.

Do you mind if I order?

Oh, please do.

Ah, do you like mussels?

Ah, oh, sure, fine.

Let's hope the food lives up
to its reputation, huh?

It does, sir. If you'll follow me, please.

Actually, Dallas is a very pleasant town.
I think you'll enjoy it.

Thank you.

Say, Jack.

- Well, hi. What a pleasant surprise.
- Hello, J.R.

I'd like you to meet a friend of mine.
Angelica Nero of Marinos Shipping.

This is my cousin Jack Ewing,
and Jenna Wade.

How do you do?

Haven't we met before?

I don't believe so.

I could have sworn that we...

I'm sure I would remember if we had.

Could you drop into the office?
I'd like to talk to you about business.

- When you get time.
- Sure.

Good. Y'all enjoy yourselves now.

Thank you.
Thank you very much, we will.

Charming man.

Yes. Nice boy.

I'm leaving him, Pam.

He's a liar and a fraud, and he doesn't care
about anybody in the world but himself.

What in the world did he do to you?

It's not what he did to me.
It's what he did to you.

Oh, Jamie. He was very upset.

He thought he'd found the best deal
possible for me...

...and it probably was,
if we're talking about money.

But I changed my mind about it in public
without even telling him first.

- That's not it, Pam.
Excuse me.

Your table's ready. This way, please.

I'm sure the way he feels about J.R.
Had something to do with it too.

Listen to me.

Cliff tried to sell you down
the river with Westar.

If you had sold Christopher's share
of Ewing Oil to Jeremy Wendell...

...he would have made Cliff Barnes
chief executive officer of the company.

No.

Yes.

Your own brother.

How could he do that to you?

I don't know.

I just don't know.

Uh, Suite 1712, please.

Grace. I finally met him.

Yes, he's here.

I can see him as I speak.

The photographs were promising...

...but I couldn't be absolutely sure
until I heard his voice.

No, I'm not gonna wait
until I get back to the hotel.

Our European office should be
opening in about 15 minutes.

Telex the people there immediately.

Yes.

Jack is definitely our man.

No. There's nothing to worry about.

Well, the only thing that J.R.
Might suspect...

...is that Jack could play
an important part in closing this deal.

Ah, a deal that J.R.
Wants very, very badly.

Mm-hm.

Okay. Bye.

Ray?

I'll be in to bed in a minute, honey.

I miss you.

Hold me.

I don't wanna lose you, Donna.

I won't let you.

I didn't wanna go out
and see those kids today.

I know.

I didn't wanna find out
I could be wrong.

That all my dreams...

...for our little baby
were never gonna come true.

Dreams can change.

They can just be different.

Yeah. Different.

I sure hope what we're doing
is right, Donna.

Come here.

This baby was conceived in love.

Our love.

How could it be anything but right?

- Don't you believe in knocking?
- I ought to knock you across the room.

- Wait a minute...
No, you wait a minute, damn it.

We're both adults.
We both have responsibilities.

I'm willing to share you with your work.
Why can't I expect as much from you?

- It's not the work we're talking about.
- I can't pretend that Bobby never existed.

Well, I can't pretend
it doesn't bother me.

So this is how it's gonna be
from now on?

You in your bed every night,
me in mine?

Both of us too proud
or too stupid to work things out?

I'm not too proud.

Then what are you?

Too stupid?
