All language subtitles for Dallas s02e08 Election.engg

- Stand up and listen.
- Now, wait a minute. Stop it!

Money and force.

Seems to be what you Ewings
understand the best.

You're starting to sound like
your knee-jerk radical brother.

If he doesn't do something...

...the Ewing family will control everyone
and everything.

There's bound to be a body
in that closet someplace. Find it.

Do you think I would
deliberately betray you?

You live with vipers,
you become a viper.

I don't know how to play by your rules,
but someday I will...

...and you're going to pay
for what you've done to my brother.

Boys, we've got a problem.

That's why we called you here.

We've got to find somebody
who can beat Cliff Barnes in this election.

- Any suggestions?
- Beau Kinney.

He's interested.
I think he can pull it off.

He just became head of the rifle club.

- No, not Kinney.
- What's the problem, J.R.?

Had a big alimony suit about
three years ago, made all the papers.

Three years? Hell, the public's memory's
only three days long.

Yeah, but Cliff Barnes' memory's
a lot longer.

Careful, Jordan. You're talking about
a relative of Bobby's.

Any other ideas?

You got anything for us, Wade?

Martin Cole.

Cole?

Who's that, J.R.?

- Fort Worth.
- Oh, yeah, yeah.

City councilman in Fort Worth,
moved here about two years ago.

He's a churchgoer,
married to Senator Orloff's niece Nancy...

...father of two daughters,
has a good law practice.

He just came out against gun control,
is as clean as they come.

- Even Barnes couldn't get anything on him.
- You think he'll cooperate?

What do you know
about this guy Cole, Bobby?

Well, Daddy, he's dull,
but he's clean and honest.

All right. Anything else?
Any other suggestions?

Cole it is.

Bobby will handle the campaign funding,
just like he did with Wild Bill Orloff.

He'll be your inside man.

Won't that cause some trouble at home?

I don't think it's gonna cause
any trouble at home.

My wife is entitled to her opinion
in this election.

- It is the American way, isn't it?
- Bobby can take care of his wife.

He knows where his first loyalty begins.

He's a Ewing, first and last.

He's with us all the way.

Mr. Barnes, the people I represent...

...have been most impressed
with your investigative work...

...the way you handled
that committee on corruption...

...in the independent oil companies.
In fact, your stand against all corruption.

It's reassuring to know
that at least I'm pleasing...

...some of the people some of the time.
- Indeed.

And they'd like to show their appreciation
and encourage your continued efforts.

- They have read my platform?
- Of course.

They've paid a great deal
of attention to it.

I see. And they're aware that there's
a strong ecological plank in it...

...and that if I'm elected,
I'm going to do everything I can...

...to stop wasteful oil drillings,
no matter who's responsible.

They know you're a reasonable man...

...and feel sure you'd put
their small gift to good use.

I have a feeling this small gift
would wipe out the national debt.

- Look for yourself.
- No, wait, wait. No, just...

Just hold it a minute, Mr. Livingston.

See, I don't think you're getting my drift,
so I wanna make it plain to you.

I've spent a lot of time lately fighting
the small, independent oil companies...

...but that doesn't mean that
I'll hop in bed with the big guys.

- That is who you represent, right?
- Don't be foolish, Barnes.

They're prepared to make a generous
contribution to your campaign...

...generous enough
to make a major difference.

They can afford to be generous
because their profits are obscene.

Jock Ewing, at least he doesn't pose
as a patron of the arts and humanities.

He's a barracuda and he doesn't
pretend to be anything else.

Call me if you change your mind.

I can assure you...

...there are no strings attached.

There are always strings.

And the invisible ones
have a way of becoming visible...

...at the most inconvenient times.

The response to the questionnaire
seems to indicate a political alliance...

...with the views of our candidate,
Mr. Clifford Barnes.

- Hi there, Mrs. Ewing. How you doing?
- Hi. Fine, thank you.

- Peter Larson, I heard you were here.
- Pam!

- I got in over the weekend.
- It's good to see you again.

- I'm looking for that crazy brother of mine.
- He's right back here.

I am so excited about this.
I'm so glad you came out to help him.

Hey, what a nice surprise.

What, did you get tired
of ringing doorbells?

Well, maybe I can find something
creative for you to do.

- Like typing addresses on envelopes?
- Oh, I don't know.

We can talk about it over lunch.
You wanna join us?

I'd love to, but I've got phone calls
to get through.

You see that?
You see how devoted he is?

Well, I wish everybody was like that.

I'm buying.

That was good, Cliff.

Any idea who the Ewings are backing?

No.

They're deciding that right now.

- Would you tell me if you knew?
- Of course I would.

Unless Bobby asked me not to.

Whoever it is, you can bet that they're
not gonna spare any expense now...

...in trying to get him elected.

Which brings me to a job
that I have in mind for you.

I need money.

How do you suppose
I'm gonna come up with that?

Well, I've come up with an idea...

...that won't involve your dipping
into your joint checking account.

- Well, what a wonderful relief.
- Yeah.

The manager of the Texas Club,
he's offered me his hall for a benefit.

Now, the hospital association last year
had a fashion show, raised $50,000.

Fifty thousand dollars I can use.
I can use half of that.

What do you want me to do, Cliff?

I want you to run a fashion show.

Well, aren't you just overjoyed
at the prospect of helping me out.

Well...

...it's mainly my job.

I just don't know
if I have the kind of time...

Oh, come on, Pam!

What, you're getting flak from the Ewings
because you're involved in my campaign?

Well, what do you think?
Of course I am.

You can't back out now...

...because everybody
knows that you're working for me.

And how would it look
if my sister were to desert me?

That would be a great job
for public relations.

I'm not deserting you, Cliff.

It's just, under the circumstances,
I wanted to keep a low profile.

You can't keep a low profile in politics...

...and especially when you're related
to the candidate.

You're the only one
I've got to count on.

I need the money.

And the Ewings and their crowd,
they can buy this election.

And if I don't have money for TV time...

...I don't stand a chance.

All right.
Oh, there's gonna be hell to pay.

- I knew I could count on you.
- Yeah, I bet you did.

Hey, listen,
with your connections at the store...

I stopped by Sam Twohy's place
this afternoon.

He doesn't like Cole very much,
but he says he'll pay.

He'd better. Pulled his fat
out of the fire often enough.

Same goes for Crenshaw.
He's gonna ante up on his own.

Hey, good, good.

- Oh, hi, sweetie.
- Hi.

I'm sorry I'm late.
We couldn't get out of the office.

That's okay. I just got home myself.

Oh, did you bring all your work home
with you?

Well, it's not exactly work, Bobby.
It's for...

- What, Pam?
- How about a couple of drinks, J.R.?

- Just soda, Jock.
- Come on, Ellie.

Bobby.

My goodness, Pam,
that looks like enough work for a week.

What's it about?

Well, I'm organizing
a fundraising fashion show...

...for Cliff's campaign.

A fashion show.

What a novel idea.

- When did all this come up, honey?
- Today.

I thought you said
she's just stuffing envelopes.

Cliff is my brother
and he asked me to do this...

...and I would like to do
whatever I can to help.

I'd also prefer to discuss this
with Bobby in private.

Well, Bobby don't keep any secrets
from his family.

Well, maybe he's not sure
which family he belongs to.

That's enough, J.R.

Well, let's see who raises the most money
for the candidates, Bobby or Pam.

Bobby's handling campaign funding,
just like he did for Wild Bill Orloff.

Sorry.

My, I can see it's dinnertime.

- Not quite, Lucy.
- Thanks a lot, J.R.

Anybody want another drink?

I believe I do, Miss Ellie.
You just sit down. I'll get it myself.

Pamela, I think it's time we talked
about just what we're doing.

I have to do it, Bobby.

Cliff's my brother
and I have to help him.

I knew it would be difficult
when you were stuffing envelopes...

...but this, I don't know.

Well, there's no one else to do it.

He doesn't have the kind of organization
behind him that the Ewing candidate does.

Well, that's the problem, honey.

There is a Ewing candidate
and you are a Ewing now.

Have you figured out how
you'll handle that?

Yes. I'm going to help my brother.

Pamela, do you understand
what this election means to my family?

Oh, I understand exactly
what it means to your family.

- It's a way to get back at my brother.
- You're being simplistic, you know it.

Your brother hasn't had a hands-off
policy when it comes to us, has he?

Well, what do you expect him to do?

If he doesn't do something...

...the Ewing family will control everyone
and everything.

Stop it. You're starting to sound
like your knee-jerk radical brother.

If being a knee-jerk radical
means being against exploitation...

...corruption and greed,
I'm proud to be one.

Exploitation and corruption
of who, of what?

Look, my daddy built an empire here...

...because he was smarter than the next
guy, worked harder and was luckier.

But anybody with the same qualifications
can do the same thing.

That's easy to say when you're born rich.
It's the others Cliff's worried about.

Cliff talks a great game,
but when it comes down to it...

...he can play as dirty
as the rest of them.

Well, we see things differently,
don't we?

What I see, Pamela,
is what this is doing to us.

Well, we've chosen our sides.

No.

No, not this time. This time,
I think we were born into them.

Among the major problems facing us today
is government interference...

...in the lives of individuals...

...and control of those lives
through massive taxation.

I would like to remind you
of the words of Jesus:

"Render unto Caesar
the things that are Caesar's...

...and unto God
the things that are God's."

And I'm sure if he were alive today,
he would want to add:

"And let man keep
what is rightfully his own."

I thank you.

We would like to thank both candidates,
Mr. Barnes and Mr. Cole...

...for coming this evening
and presenting their views.

Before we have refreshments,
we have time for a few questions.

I didn't know you were interested
in politics.

Well, I'm not, but certain politicians
interest me a lot.

I'm glad to hear that.

When I found out you would be here
this evening...

...I couldn't resist volunteering
to chair the meeting.

I'm flattered. And surprised.

Why surprised?

I thought Martin Cole
would be more appealing.

Politically, that is.

Martin Cole has limited appeal to me.

Politically or otherwise.

I hate to interrupt,
but your conversation...

...is arousing more interest than gun
control and the ERA put together.

It certainly was an interesting debate,
Mr. Barnes.

- I'm sure it'll be a close race.
- It won't be close at all...

...because I intend to beat the pants
off my worthy opponent.

Excuse me.

Is it J.R. Ewing you're out to get...

...or his wife?

I hadn't really thought about that.

Till now.

We have got to do something
and we got to do it fast.

Barnes gets stronger every day.

We keep pumping money
into your campaign fund...

...and we're getting nothing in return.
- We're doing everything we can.

I know that, I know you are,
but it's just not enough.

The polls show that Barnes is gaining
one percentage point every day.

- We can't live with that.
- That's no surprise.

It's a recognition factor.

Things will change in time.
Take my word for it.

- It just takes time.
- We don't have time.

Things will improve. My wife says
down at the church that we're...

First thing you've got to do
is hire a speechwriter with some guts.

The guy you've got now
puts everybody to sleep.

And stop dressing in those
tired old man's clothes.

- J.R.
- Yes?

Take this man shopping tomorrow.
Get him some new clothes.

- That won't be necessary.
- We'll tell you what's necessary.

We are paying for your election.

And buy more television time.

I want to see your face
every time I turn that damn thing on.

Barnes brought a fellow out from Madison
Avenue to manage his media campaign.

Yeah? Who's that, J.R.?

Peter Larson. Ran Bryan's campaign
in New York.

- Is he any good?
- Yes, sir, he is.

- Can we get him?
- I doubt it.

All right, let's get somebody else.

Done.

I really appreciate you dropping by.

Why don't I pick you up
10:00 tomorrow morning.

We're gonna make you look like
a state senator yet.

- Whatever you say, J.R.
- Good boy. Nice seeing you.

Well...

Man...

- He's a washout.
- Yes, sir.

- You know he can't win.
- Yes, sir, I know that.

We've got to see to it
that Barnes loses.

Dig something up on him.

I've tried everything.
I've got the boys working on it.

He's clean. There must be
something wrong with the man.

Nobody's gotten that far in politics
and stayed clean.

He's just been careful, that's all.

And don't forget he's a Barnes.

There's bound to be a body
in that closet someplace.

Find it.

All right, sir.

If I can't find it, I'll put it there.

Whatever.

Whatever.

Inherited $27 million.

Her husband had a franchise for all
the mechanical things made in Mexico.

You know, tractors and heavy-duty
graders, things like that.

I didn't know that.

Miss Ellie, I don't think the turkey's
to Pamela's liking.

She hasn't even touched her dinner.

The turkey's fine, Miss Ellie.
I'm just not very hungry. Thank you.

Maybe you're working too hard.
Careful you don't get sick.

We wouldn't want your brother
to lose his chief fundraiser.

That reminds me, J.R.

That new ad agency I hired for Martin
wants their money in advance.

They were burned on the last campaign
by a few boys.

They'll get it. They're worth
every penny of it.

Martin's beginning to come over
as a real statesman.

- Well, good.
- Not an easy task, I might add.

Did you get him a new speechwriter? He
sounded better the last time I heard him.

Had to. Gotta fight fire with fire,
Miss Ellie.

Barnes brought that Larson fellow
out of New York to run his campaign.

He's called a media...
What the hell is it, Bobby?

- Media specialist, Dad.
- Yeah, that's it. Media specialist.

For a man who's always crying poverty,
that seems a little extravagant to me.

Peter and Cliff were roommates in college.
Peter's volunteering his services.

Now, isn't that unusual?

Above and beyond the call
of ordinary friendship?

Meaning what?

I was just interested
in the nature of the friendship.

Seems extremely close.

Growing phenomenon nowadays.

Something I can't understand myself.

You mean to tell me
that that gorgeous Cliff Barnes is...

I don't like the tone of this conversation.

I know I don't.

I just think it's strange.
Man past 30, never been married.

It just so happens Cliff
was engaged to be married...

...to a girl in New York
who worked for Peter's father.

- He's just never gotten over her.
- He was?

What happened?
Why didn't he get married?

Well, she...

She died.

How awful.

How'd she die?

It was an accident.

I don't remember much about it.

Well, that was a fine dinner, Miss Ellie.

I think I'll work it off in front of the TV.
Cowboys are playing tonight.

- Want to join me?
- In a minute.

I'll bring in your coffee.

Why don't you make it bourbon.

- I wanna see you, J.R.
- Yes, sir.

Mama, excuse me.

I know. I know it's short notice, Dan,
but we gotta move quick on this.

Now, you call me back
just as soon as you can.

Okay.

Who'd we get?

Dan Marsh, private investigator.

He'll be in New York City
tomorrow morning.

Well, if Cliff Barnes has a body
buried somewhere, he'll find it.

- When will we know?
- Couple of days.

Good, good.

You're gonna have to talk to me.
We're still married to each other.

Yeah, but we're on opposite sides
of the fence.

How'd she die?

I don't remember. Remember?

You were never very good at lying.
The tips of your ears turn red.

I can't tell you, Bobby.

I'm sorry.

Honey, if you feel
you can't trust me, well...

...that says something
about the state of our marriage.

Come on.

Just give me a little time, okay?

Okay, Dan. That is wonderful.

That's the sort of thing
we're looking for.

Hang on just a second, would you?

Louella, get ahold of my daddy
at the ranch.

Say, did you get a statement
from the doctor?

I see. All right.

We'll release the story anyway.
I sure appreciate this, bud.

I'll have a check in the mail to you
this afternoon.

Okay.

- Yeah?
- Mr. Ewing on line one.

Thank you, darling.

Hello, Daddy.

We hit pay dirt.

Yeah. Barnes just broke
the cardinal rule of politics:

Never get caught in bed with a live man
or a dead woman.

When Pamela says, "This is Charlene,"
come down the ramp quickly.

That's lovely.
Do a nice turn right over there.

Follow me down to the center.
That's good.

Yes, yes. Come over here,
make another turn, take off that jacket.

Throw it over your left shoulder.
Go to that end of the ramp. Lovely.

All right, darling, Tiffany. Yes, come on.

Lovely. Quickly.

Let me show Cliff, okay?

I'll let you know. I love them.

Show that wonderful shirt.
That's lovely.

Yes. Hello!

Where you are now, make a nice turn.

Well, that's a really nice lineup.

I am so pleased.
They're all very good too.

This is Kristin Carlson.

I'm standing in the main dining hall
of the Texas Club...

...where a benefit is being held
later this week...

...for Clifford Barnes,
candidate for state senate.

Barnes, this reporter has just learned, has
been implicated in the abortion death...

...of a young woman who was his fiancée
about 10 years ago.

Mr. Barnes, most women's groups
favor abortion on demand.

Given the circumstances of her death...

...where do you stand on the issue?
- He has no comment.

Will this hurt your chances for victory
in the election?

Sorry. Nothing right now.

Your opponent, Martin Cole,
has taken a strong stand against abortion.

- Our radio audience would welcome...
- I said, no comment!

It's okay, I'll...

I'll have a statement for the press
later this evening.

I don't have anything to say right now.

Folks, just come with me.

I'll call you as soon as Mr. Barnes
is ready to hold a press conference.

Cliff, Cliff...

Wait a minute.
No, I don't want to talk right now.

I've gotta salvage a sinking ship.

It's important.
I've got to tell you something.

No, really. No, really.
I can't talk to you.

Which way did Peter...? Peter!

Okay, folks.

I am sure that you've all heard by now...

...but I just wanted you to hear
my side of the story.

First of all, it's true.

Penny Ames and I lived together
for several months...

...before she became pregnant.

Peter knew her.

She was his father's secretary.

And Penny's dream
was to enter law school.

Saved every nickel toward her tuition.

She had just passed her entrance exams
and found out that she was pregnant.

I wanted to marry her, but she said
that we weren't ready for a child.

So I borrowed money...

...and went to a doctor
who had been recommended to us.

And you know the rest.

Mr. Barnes, why didn't you
get her to a hospital?

Because abortions were illegal
at the time...

...and you couldn't just go to a hospital
and have it taken care of properly.

I know, but why did you keep it a secret?

I mean, you should've known
that someone would find out.

The secrecy was out of deference
to Penny's family.

They were very religious
and they wanted it kept quiet.

How is this going to affect
the campaign?

Well, it's too early to tell.
See, what Cole is saying...

...is that I was involved in an illegal
activity that contributed to Penny's death.

Well, insofar as abortions
were illegal at the time, he's right.

- I can't deny that.
- What do I tell everybody when they call?

The phones haven't stopped ringing.

Well, you can tell them that I'll have
a statement for them this evening.

Or... No, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

You could tell them the truth.

You could tell them
exactly what I've told you...

...because I loved Penny...

...and I wanted to do
what she wanted to do...

...and it just didn't work out.

That's it.

I don't know how they got ahold of that.
That's what I don't understand.

Penny's family,
I know they wouldn't say anything.

And the only other people that knew
were you and Pam.

- Now, wait a minute.
- Oh, no, no, no, no. Not you.

And Pam's out of the question.

The doctor must've gotten in touch
with the Ewings somehow.

Why would he do that?
He's just out on parole.

He can't want that kind of publicity,
no matter how much money's involved.

Why don't you get out of here.

I can handle the phones.

Hi. I probably shouldn't have come,
but it was an impulse.

I heard the news on the radio.

I'm surprised you didn't hear it
firsthand from J.R.

I don't hear much first
or secondhand from J.R.

Yeah?

Well, I guess he's pretty busy.

I imagine he's trying to dig up
whatever he can to destroy me.

I've just been wondering
how he found out.

You know, don't you?

I'd hate to be around
when you find out.

I'm really sorry.

You know what?

I really believe you are.

So am I.

Oh, boy, about a lot of things.

Well...

...bye.

Yeah, well, thank you.
Thank you very much.

That's wonderful. All right.

Well, Dad, Martin is finally
beginning to gain in the polls.

Well, we've got Dan to thank for that.

Not to mention my pretty sister-in-law.

How could you have done it?!

And you, you let him!

Politics is politics.

And that's your excuse?

For taking a fine, good man
and destroying him?

And you,
you don't need an excuse.

You'd do it for your own self-serving
entertainment!

Now, now, hold on, Pamela. We
understand that you love your brother...

...but you do have
a slightly prejudiced view of him.

And despite what you consider
his sterling qualifications...

...the man apparently doesn't hesitate
to do what's illegal whenever it suits him.

You have distorted this entire issue.

I think you're despicable!

We just told the truth, that's all.

I'll tell you something:

I don't know how to play by your rules,
but someday I will...

...and you're going to pay
for what you've done to my brother.

No, you won't.

You won't use any of those rules
against me or any other Ewing.

You'll do just as we do.

You'll use them
to protect your own interests.

Then God help me.

Hi.

I called Peter at the office.
He said you'd probably be here.

- You look tired.
- No, I'm doing pretty good...

...considering the beating I'm taking.

When I think what this might mean
to your career, Cliff, it...

It just seems so unfair.

Oh, come on, you have
to look at the bright side.

Just think, my losing
might be saving your marriage.

- Who told you that?
- What?

That the Ewings don't like you
working for me?

Cliff, I have to tell you something...

...and it's so hard.

I don't even know how to do it.

Well, why don't you just tell me.

I don't even understand how I did it.

I was talking and it just slipped out.

And...

It was you?

Before I could do anything about it,
J.R. was off and running.

Cliff, if there was any way...

You know, I never even suspected you.

For a moment, I thought
maybe it might be Peter.

But you?

You never even crossed my mind.

Oh, Cliff, I know it's unforgivable,
but it was an accident.

Come off it, Pam!

- Things like that just don't slip out.
- What?

You're not a child!
You had to know what you were doing.

You don't think I did it on purpose and...

I think you'd do anything for Bobby Ewing.

- That's what I think.
- How dare you!

Just don't lie to me, Pam.

What you're saying is unforgivable!

I mean, do you think
I would deliberately betray you?

No, no, no, no, no.

What you did is unforgivable.

You can at least listen to me.
You can give me a chance to...

Why should I listen to you?!

The Ewings destroy everything
they get their hands on...

...and you're one of them now.

You live with vipers, you become a viper.

So why don't you go back
to where you belong.

To them.

I heard the news on the radio.
What happened?

We were rehearsing at the Texas Club.
The reporters just busted in.

- How did he take it?
- How do you think?

He was in shock the whole time.

We make quite a pair.
J.R. and me.

Between the two of us,
we managed to ruin a pretty terrific guy.

No, honey, it wasn't you.
And it wasn't J.R.

Cliff made a mistake, J.R. just exposed it.

- You're defending J.R.'s tactics?
- No, I am pointing out a political reality.

Not every politician
goes right for the jugular.

Well, honey, I haven't noticed that Cliff
runs from the smell of blood himself.

Sweetheart, you cannot change the rules
according to whose side you're on.

Now, Cliff made a mistake.
J.R. found out about it.

I know you feel bad, but honey,
that is the name of the game.

You sound just like your father.

I didn't come home to fight with you.

I heard the report on the news.
You must be feeling bad.

I love you, remember?

Cliff thinks I deliberately told J.R.

I'm sorry, honey.

What's the matter?

I wanted to take a real good look...

...and see if it was worth marrying
into the Ewing family.

Honey, this hasn't been Cliff's best day.
He'll come around.

He knows you wouldn't say something
like that on purpose.

I don't know. He's really hurt.

It'll be okay.

All right, Daddy, smile.

Come on, we got
some more people coming in.

Hey, Ma! We got good news!

How you doing?

Take this. There's more.

Hey, catch the door, would you?

Hey, Dad, look who's here!
Look who's here!

Well, isn't that something?

Just hold it down a little bit.
I'm gonna turn up the volume.

Results are coming in
from the 14th district...

... which is the heart of Barnes ' territory.

With 15 percent of the votes counted,
it looks like another Cole victory.

Did you hear that? 15! We're on top!

Hey, how about that? Let's buy a drink
for everybody in the house.

This has been a stunning
come-from-behind upset for Martin Cole...

... the former city councilman
from Fort Worth.

Mr. Cole, as you know,
married to the former Nancy Orloff...

... daughter of Senator Orloff.

- This must be a very special victory...
- May I join you?

Not if you're going to gloat.

I'm not gonna gloat.

I'm just sorry that the best man lost.

I'm not sure I heard that.

I was just thinking
how nice it would have been...

...if J.R. didn't get what he wanted...

...for once.
- They tell me that it's over.

- Oh, come on, don 't give up.
- Wait, wait, wait.

I wanna say that you're the best group
of people I've ever worked with.

I want you to go home,
get acquainted with your families again...

... and I'll see you next time around.

Excuse me, Pamela.

We got 10 key spots sewed up.

Couple more, we'll be running
the whole show.

What do you think about that?
Got other ideas?

Well, not right now, Wade...

...but we won't forget the work
you did in the 14th district.

I'll be right back.

Did you call him?

A little while ago.

What did he say?

Same thing as before.

What did you offer me to do him in?

- He can't be serious, honey.
- Oh, he is.

Come on. Let's go see Cliff.

Oh, Bobby, I don't think
now's the time for a confrontation.

Now is the perfect time to straighten
things out between the two of you.

Don't you think I could have one shot
of bourbon after this great victory?

- I'm sick and tired of this soda water.
- No, Jock.

Would you get Mr. Ewing
some soda water, please?

Put a lot of ice in it.

Here at the Cole campaign headquarters...

... we're getting ready
for the acceptance speech.

And here comes Martin Cole now.

Listen to that crowd.

Let's call it a day.

Go ahead.

I've got some things to sort out.

Do it tomorrow.

I'm leaving for New York
in the morning.

- Let me buy you a drink.
- I'll catch you next time.

Come on.

You're...

...not the first guy who lost.

True.

You know, I don't like the feeling.

I'll help you win next time.

You're on.

And I'll be in the bar across the street
if you change your mind.

Thanks, Peter.

- Is Cliff here?
- Cliff's in his office.

Oh, Peter,
this is my husband, Bobby Ewing.

- How do you do?
- Pam...

...I'm not sure this is a good time.
Better wait a few days.

No, we'll see him now, thank you.

Good luck.

Come on, honey.

I wanna talk to you.

Well, how are you
at one-way conversations?

Because I'm not in the mood to talk.

Look, I think you two ought to
straighten this whole mess out.

Oh, what mess?

You got your election.

I mean, you don't expect me to be happy
and forgiving about the way you got it.

Which means you'll go on
blaming Pam forever...

...for something that was an accident?

An accident?

Don't make me laugh.
You put her up to it.

Bobby had nothing to do with it, Cliff.

- Come on, give her a chance to explain.
- A chance to lie.

- Just stand up and listen.
- Now, wait a minute. Stop it!

Money and force.

Seems to be what you Ewings
understand the best.

Cliff, I swear to you,
I never told them about Penny's death.

I did tell them you were engaged
and that your fiancée died.

But you've got to believe me,
I didn't tell them anything else.

J.R. found out the rest for himself.

I'd never do anything to hurt you.

You know, sometimes I think
your hatred of us Ewings...

...is like a cancer inside of you
that chews up your good sense.

Don't you know I love you?

I love you too.

I'm so sorry.
I know I messed up everything.

Forgive me.

It seems like we've both got
a little forgiving to do.

And I'm willing.

What do you say we go over to the bar
and have a drink?

Yeah, l... Not right now, thanks. I...

I've just got some thinking
I've got to do.

I appreciate your coming down.

I know that must've been tough.

- See you soon?
- Okay.

- Buy you lunch.
- Sure.

Come on, honey.

Peter Larson, please.
He's at the bar.

Well, I'm glad it's all over.

If I know my brother,
it's just beginning.

Peter? Cliff.

I want you to get ahold of Livingston.

Yep, the guy with the cashier's check.

Ask him if he's got enough money
to buy the next state senate seat.

Maybe even the Congress.

Peter...

...I've just become a realist.
