Daddy?

Daddy.

Daddy?

Mr. Barnes, did any
doctor ever tell you

That you had a genetic disorder

Called neurofibromatosis?

Your family history is bad.

Does that mean that
cliff and I have it?

Yes.

Are you suggesting
that if I had a child,

He could die within 6 months?

To be blunt... Yes.

Bobby and I have been
trying to have a baby.

How do I tell him I can't?

Woman on p.a.: flight 37 now
arriving from Los Angeles.

Well, what about that?

Cliff Barnes on the front page

Of the newspaper again.

Did you say something, j.r.?

I said, I think your
mother's plane is late.

It just landed.

Oh, I'm sorry, kid.

Woman on p.a.: flight
80 for Chicago

Now boarding at gate 7.

Who would've thought that such

An insignificant little man

Like cliff Barnes

Could cause so much trouble

For the powerful and
omniscient j.r. Ewing?

Just temporary, honey.

Of course.

Shall we go?

Sure.

Woman, on p.a.: flight
2 from Lubbock

Will be delayed one hour.

Digger!

Hey, daddy!

Sue ellen, come on, honey.

Daddy!

Hey, you're looking fine.

I am fine.

What did you bring
me all this way for?

I was doing real good
out there in California.

I got a surprise for you.

Well, why didn't you
pick up a telephone

Or write me a letter?

Because I want to show you.

Hey, how is aunt Maggie?

Where's Pamela?

Well, listen, Maggie's
visiting Kansas,

And pam, I didn't even
bother to tell her

That you were coming back.

We'll call her later.

What's this big
surprise you got for me?

Let's get your bags.

I got my bags.

Woman, on p.a.: passenger
steve sonneman,

Please pick up the
white courtesy phone.

Hi!

Hi, kristin, darling.

You're just looking wonderful.

Sue ellen, you look radiant.

Motherhood really
agrees with you.

Kristin, don't
you think so, too?

Oh, sue ellen, we
were so excited

When we heard about the baby.

J.r., you really look
like the proud father.

Well, thank you, Patricia.

Say, I got a hired hand

Waiting for the
luggage down there.

You want to help
him spot them for us?

Oh, j.r., you think
of everything.

Sue ellen's so lucky.

I only hope kristin

Can find a man just like you.

I'm sure, mama, you'll
see that she does.

Shall we go?

Mrs. Rees: you're going to spoil

That baby, mrs. Ewing.

Mm-hmm.

I fully intend to.

I think all babies
should be spoiled rotten.

What about husbands?

What do you think, baby John?

Should that include husbands?

Good morning, mrs. Reese.

Mr. Ewing.

Baby John, if your aunt Pamela

Doesn't get out of
here and go to work,

She's going to be fired,

And you know how we
ewings depend on her salary

To make ends meet.

I don't think the job

Is that important to me anymore.

Honey, would you feel that way,

I mean, that strongly,

If you didn't think that cliff

Was the father of this baby?

Well, I don't know.

I think so.

I shouldn't be responsible

For my brother's behavior.

No, you shouldn't.

Bobby, if sue ellen
acted like she wanted

Or cared for the baby,

I could accept what happened,

But she never spends
any time with him.

Honey, she's been
through a hard time,

And she'll come around.

The fact is that what you
know about cliff and sue ellen

Doesn't make this little
boy your responsibility.

And I know that.

Anyway, what woman

Could resist all that charm?

You make a pretty picture.

Maybe you should start thinking

Of having one of your own.

Well, what's so funny?

Mama, we're doing a lot more

Than think about it.

Well, I can't think
of better news

To start the day.

I think she's going to be OK

If you just go easy
with her for awhile.

Thanks a lot, ray.

I'm going to ride her later.

You've been pretty quiet lately.

Something the matter?

Nah, nothing really.

I just hate it that
kristin is coming back,

That's all.

Well, she seemed

Like a pretty good kid to me.

Heh, men.

You're all blind

When it comes to a pretty woman.

Did you know that
when she was here

The last time

She tried to take
Bobby away from pam?

Is that a fact?

Well, it didn't
happen, though, did it?

So why get all hot and bothered?

Oh, you know she's a witch, ray.

She's going to cause trouble
the first chance she gets.

You just wait and see.

You're just worried about losing

Some of the
attention around here.

I mean, when it comes
to causing trouble,

I think you want
exclusive rights.

I thought you
were a friend, ray.

Hey, I am a friend,

But what do you want
me to do about kristin?

First time she wants to ride,

Find her a bucking bronco.

Oh, here comes lady dracula now.

Well, she's traveling
with her kind of people.

Oh, it's beautiful.

Oh, I think the baby
will be all right.

Come on, miss ellie.

Patricia!

Oh, miss ellie.

It's so good to see you.

I'm dying to see my grandson.

Oh, well, he's a beautiful baby.

Well, well, well,

You're as pretty
as ever, kristin.

Thank you, mr. Ewing.

Oh, why don't you call
me uncle jock, huh?

Uncle jock.

Oh, what happened to
engineering school...

U.s.c., wasn't it?

Well, I can't get
the classes I want

Until next term.

Well, we're sure glad

To have you and your
mama back here in Dallas.

That right, j.r.?

That's right, dad.

Oh, I just can't believe it.

Look how big he is.

I expected a tiny one.

You know, when I heard

He was born premature,

Oh, I can tell
you, I was worried.

He's doing just fine,
isn't he, sue ellen?

Yes, just fine.

May I hold the baby, sue ellen?

If you like.

Are you all right?

Of course.

Show your grandmother Patricia

And your aunt kristin

What a handsome boy you are.

Oh, he's darling.

Oh!

Tch tch tch tch!

Oh, let me hold him, too.

Little John Ross ewing iii.

Oh, he's adorable.

Sue ellen, do you
want to hold your son?

No, you can hold him, mama.

I'm going upstairs to lie down.

Well, j.r., there's no
doubt he's your son.

He looks just like you.

Yeah, well,

I guess we better
get to work, dad.

Ladies.

Bye, ladies.

Bye-bye.

It's almost time for his bottle.

Do you want to see the nursery?

Oh, I'd love to.

Kristin, let's go inside.

Uh, kristin?

Kristin: coming.

What are you stopping here for?

Because this is where I wanted

To show you something.

Oh, you mean, like the car,

The new car, the rich man's car?

I'm telling you, daddy,

Things are starting to happen.

You're just not going
to have to worry

About money anymore.

I wouldn't have had
to worry about money,

Except jock ewing
stole it from me.

Well, then I'm sure

You'll feel
turnabout's fair play.

You trying to tell me something?

You see that building there?

You bring me all the
way back to Dallas

Just to show me
jock ewing's building?

We own a little piece of it.

Are you crazy?

No, I'm not crazy.

Here.

They're yours.

Ewing oil royalty checks.

Made out to you...
willard Barnes.

Signed by j.r. Ewing.

Every couple of months

Ewing oil is paying
money to digger Barnes.

That make you happy?

How did you do that?

I'm telling you, dad,
I'm becoming a power.

The o.l.m.,

Which I run with
no interference,

Says who can and
who cannot drill

In the whole state of Texas.

Yeah, but how did
you get royalties

Out of ewing?

Because I got
ewing oil in a box,

And I'm squeezing hard.

The only new field they drilled

Was palo seco,
where I just happened

To arrange for you

To have a little piece of it.

Not a big piece,
but it's a start.

Now, that's really worth
coming back to Dallas for.

It's a beginning.

When I'm through with ewing oil,

They're going to be
wiped out, flat broke.

I never wanted that.

See, but I can do it.

J.r. Tried to stop
me, but he can't.

He's tried every
trick in the book.

He just happens to
be fresh out of tricks.

You know, you're
getting to sound

Just like one of them,
one of the ewings.

I only want what's coming to me.

I don't want to see
jock ewing flat broke.

He's going to be flat broke.

It's simple justice,
just the way it is.

I'm going back to your place.

Hey, I thought you'd be proud.

It was a long flight.

I'm tired, clifford.

By the time those dinosaurs

Down at the state house

Get around to stopping o.l.m.,

Ewing oil will be just another

Texas historical monument.

What the hell's the trouble now?

Well, o.l.m. Has a
team of experts

Poking around our
Wells at the panhandle

Claiming we're dumping
too much salt water.

They're gonna try and
shut us down there, too?

Bobby, because of
your brother-in-law,

Ewing oil has become
an endangered species.

What did senator mulligan

Say he was going to do?

He's going to initiate

A special
investigative committee

In the senate, daddy.

Rumor has it Barnes
is taking payoffs

From special interest groups.

Well, I got a feeling

All this is too
little and too late.

We got to do something drastic.

J.r.

No, nothing violent.

Every man has his weakness.

I just have to
find the right one

For mr. Barnes.

Hey.

Hey, hey, hey!

Hey, what do they pay you

To be the head of that, uh...

Office of land management.

They pay me enough.

Yeah, enough for this
and a new car, huh?

I live frugally.

Have a quiet lifestyle.

You on the take?

Now, wait a minute.

Wait a minute.

If I was and I
told you about it,

Then you'd be a party to it,

And you've had enough problems

For two lifetimes.

I'd like to lie down
for a little while.

Where's the bedroom?

It's right in there.

You want some coffee or soup?

No, no, no, no.

No, thanks.

Daddy?

Daddy.

Daddy?

Pam: I'm so glad we decided

To walk to lunch.

Bobby: well, you're in
an awful good mood.

What happened?

They give you a
$5.00 raise at work?

No.

I think it has something to do

With our talk with
miss ellie this morning.

You like the idea
about having a baby?

Oh, Bobby, ever since
little John came home,

I... You know.

I know.

I've been getting the
message loud and clear

The last couple of days.

Nobody's listening.

Come on, honey.

What about the store?

What about your work?

Well, I wouldn't have
to quit right away.

What about it?

Well, last time you
made a pretty big thing

Out of being your own person.

That was then.

Why are you bringing it up now?

I want to be sure.

More important, I
want you to be sure.

We're under a lot
of pressure now

With cliff and j.r. And daddy

And I want one part of our life

To be stable and secure.

I love you, Bobby ewing.

Good.

And I love the idea
of having your baby.

Uh-huh.

And I think you're going to make

A wonderful daddy.

Mm-hmm!

Look, I have not seen
a doctor in 30 years

And I'm not going to start now.

Will you just give
me a couple aspirin?

You scared the hell out of me

By collapsing out there.

Now, will you see
a doctor for me?

I do not need a doctor.

What do they do?

They examine you,

Stick some needles in your arm,

Then they tell you to
take a couple aspirin.

Will you give me the aspirin?

It's OK.

I called pam.

She's on her way down
here from the store.

Maybe she can knock
some sense into you.

If she had any sense,

She wouldn't have
married a ewing.

Pam: what's that got
to do with anything?

You left the door open.

Listen, I'm glad you're here.

See if you can talk
some sense into this mule

We've got for a father.

I think he's running
a temperature.

Hi, pretty girl.

You do have a fever.

I called Dr. Holliston.

He said he'd see him

If we could get him
over there right away.

Holliston?

You think you can get
him into his clothes,

Or should I call an ambulance?

I'll manage.

I can manage.

Would you both get out of here

And let me change?

Why didn't you tell
me he was coming home?

I'd have met him.

I wanted to talk to him alone...

A few things I had to tell him.

You didn't.

Oh, no, tell him about the baby?

No.

There were other things.

I wanted to.

I wanted to tell him

That he was a grandfather.

You know you can't.

I don't know how much
longer I can keep it

A secret, pam.

Kristin: we heard
about the accident.

That other car just
came out of nowhere.

You know I'm a careful driver.

That place, it
must've been awful.

What place?

The sanitarium.

Oh, no.

Actually, it was
quite wonderful.

I had the best care, best food.

Sis, why were you
drinking so heavily?

We all knew.

Mama talked to miss ellie.

Don't you think we
have talked about me

Quite long enough?

How was California?

Well, pleasant.

We were in a lovely
apartment hotel,

But the men there
were so... Unsubstantial.

The ones I met
were either married,

In therapy, gay, or all 3.

Poor kristin.

Always on the prowl.

Don't you know that
the best way to find a man

Is not to look too hard?

Let the right man find you.

For a woman right now,

It's not so bad living alone.

Would you like to live alone?

My marriage is very
important to me.

I just sometimes think
that the single life

Would be very uncomplicated.

How?

Enjoy it while you can, kristin.

Think of it as a time
to try new things,

Make your own mistakes,

And not have to answer
to anyone for them.

Well, I wouldn't hesitate

To trade a little
freedom and privacy

For the position and
power a woman gains

From being married
to a man like j.r. Ewing.

You are very young, kristin,

But mama has trained you well.

I'm, uh, very tired right now.

Miss ellie has invited us

To stay for dinner.

Will you be coming down?

Why, kristin?

Were you thinking of
occupying my chair?

Somebody will,

If you don't pull
yourself together.

Sure taking a long
enough time in there.

Well, he's probably
being very thorough.

Imagine what the
bill's going to be.

If that's what
you're worried about,

I'll pay for it.

No, uh-uh.

No, no.

Well, I know how
you are about money.

I just don't throw it around.

Mr. Barnes, the doctor
will see you now.

Come in.

Hello, cliff.

Hi, Paul.

Meet my sister Pamela ewing.

How do you do?

How do you do, doctor?

Please sit down.

How's my father?

Oh, he's dressing.

He'll be in in a moment.

Anything serious?

Well, nothing that bed rest

And staying off the
bottle wouldn't help.

I haven't had a drink in months.

Just came off a job.

When I work, I don't drink.

Oh, daddy.

Sit down, mr. Barnes.

No, thank you, doc.

Let's get out of here.

Sit down, dad.

Sit down.

Is the drinking a problem?

Mrs. Ewing, your father suffers

From a virus, an
over-abused liver...

One more drinking
bout, mr. Barnes,

May be your last...
and overwork.

Whatever he was doing

In those oil fields
out in California,

It was too much.

I was making a living.

I was doing what
I know how to do.

So we keep him quiet.

Yes, but I'm afraid

That's not all there is to it.

I wanted to talk to all 3 of you

Because this
concerns all of you.

How so?

The thing that threw me, cliff,

Was that I never
picked it up in you.

Mr. Barnes, did any
doctor ever tell you

That you had a genetic disorder

Called neurofibromatosis?

I saw a doctor once
who set a broken leg,

But I don't remember
him mentioning anything

About the
neurofibro... Whatever.

Neurofibromatosis.

Is that what's making him sick?

No, no, but when I
examined your father,

I found 6 or 7
cafe au lait spots...

Discoloration of the
pigment of the skin.

I did a hearing test.

Your daddy tells me

His hearing has gotten worse.

X-rays and a
neurological examination

Confirmed my diagnosis.

Well, what does all this mean?

Neurofibromatosis
is an inherited

Genetic disease.

Does that mean that
cliff and I have it?

Yes.

Although you may display
none of the symptoms,

You are all carriers.

Well, if we don't have
any of the symptoms

And we aren't sick from it,

What's the problem?

Mr. Barnes, did you
have any other children?

I had an older brother, Tyler,

He died when he
was 6 months old,

And there was a girl
between pam and myself.

She died right before
she was a year old,

And we never found out why.

Yes, I was afraid of that.

Cliff, mrs. Ewing,
you two were lucky.

You survived.

Your father survived.

The 3 of you were spared.

But this disease is passed

From parent to child

On down through the generations.

Mrs. Ewing, you don't
have any children,

Do you?

No.

Cliff, you haven't
become a father

Since I saw you last?

Why?

Well, because if you had,

I would suggest an
immediate examination

To see if the child had
any detectable tumors.

Your family history is bad.

Are you suggesting
that if I had a child

He could die within 6 months
like my brother and sister?

To be blunt... Yes.

Patricia: oh, I just can't
get over this baby.

My first grandchild.

Happy, healthy, so beautiful.

We were lucky, Patricia.

The way he came into this world,

We weren't sure
he was going to live.

I shouldn't say this,
but I prayed for a boy.

I really prayed.

Of course, I would've
loved a little girl

Just as much, but
a boy just like j.r...

You know, I must've
paced back and forth

In front of that
phone for an hour

Before I could call you

And tell you about sue ellen.

You took it remarkably well.

Well, you were so
kind and reassuring.

I didn't worry about it at all.

Somehow I knew

That if the ewing
family were in charge,

Nothing bad could
happen to sue ellen.

Sue ellen's had a
very rough time.

I think it's going
to be quite awhile

Before she gets
her old spark back.

Oh, she must be
suffering from that, uh,

Oh, what do they call it?

Postpartum depression.

It's not uncommon.

I know my girls.

They always snap right
back after any illness.

I'm sure.

Meanwhile, little
John will grow up

On this beautiful ranch,

His uncle Bobby
will teach him to ride,

And someday, I expect,

He'll have a great big office

Right next to his daddy's.

What a wonderful future.

Coffee?

Nope.

I want a drink.

You want one?

No, I don't think so.

I've got to get to sue ellen.

I've got to tell her
about little John.

No, you don't.

I don't?

He's got to be checked.

Something has to
be done, anything.

I don't want him to die.

Then let me handle it.

No, I'll handle it.

Sue ellen should be told.

She has a right to know.

Cliff, sue ellen's
already so guilty

About the baby.

This could put
her over the edge.

Don't you understand

She's not well emotionally?

If she finds out
the baby could die,

There's no telling
what would happen.

You can't risk that.

What am I supposed
to do, just sit here?

I can't do that.

Then trust me.

I said I'll handle it.

I'll take the baby to a
pediatrician tomorrow.

If he doesn't find anything

In a routine check,

Then I'll take him
to Fort Worth.

I'm trying to help
you and sue ellen and,

Most of all, that poor baby.

OK, but do it, and
then you let me know.

You let me know what's
happening with my son.

Of course I will.

I thought you were sleeping.

Oh, I'm just restless.

You worried about digger?

You said he was
going to be fine.

He will be.

I'll be in bed in a minute.

OK.

Bobby: you're staring, j.r.

You enjoying the view?

Is that a new bathing
suit pam's got on?

I think it is. Why?

Oh, I was just wondering
how sue ellen would look

In a little thing like that.

Yeah, I guess we better
grab some breakfast, huh?

I didn't think you
could hold down

Any solid food this morning.

All right.

Good morning.

Morning, Bobby.

Morning.

Just coffee, Teresa.

You got books, lucy?

I thought you were going to try

And get through
college without them.

Oh, Bobby.

Let's see what you're reading.

Oh, it wouldn't
interest you, Bobby.

It's just history.

Come on, let me see.

Now, what class is this for,

This "love's last heartbeat"?

I'm reading it during lunch.

Sure you are.

Morning.

You all are up bright and early.

What's all this about?

Your daddy's driving
me to a d.o.a. Meeting.

I haven't been to one
since the baby was home.

Did you get Patricia and kristin

Set in town all right today?

Yes, sir.

I got them in at the royalist

Until I can find a
house for them.

The royalist is lovely.

Yeah, I thought it would
make sue ellen happy

Knowing her people
were in nice surroundings,

You know.

I'll see you at
the office later.

I want to meet that
young new lawyer.

What's his name?

Alan, Alan beam.

Yeah, has he come up
with anything we can use

Against Barnes yet?

Working on it, dad.

Working on it.

Lucy: I'm going to school.

Grandma, you want
me to pick you up later?

Yes, thank you, lucy.

Bobby, will you tell pam

The baby's
appointment is at 10:00?

What appointment is that, mama?

He's going to the pediatrician.

Sue ellen was busy,
so pam volunteered.

Yeah, sure.

See you.

Thanks.

Bye.

Well, I, uh, guess I
better get going, too.

Sue ellen.

Don't tell me, j.r.

You couldn't
leave for the office

Without one last
adoring look at your wife.

Darling, I don't understand

The need for sarcasm.

I think I've tried to be

A loving and considerate husband

Ever since you came
home from the hospital.

Well, maybe you're
trying too hard, darling.

I feel like I'm married
to a perfect stranger.

What's happened?

Isn't this what you wanted?

Isn't it what you asked for?

It is a change.

I know I've given you
a hard time in the past,

And I know this is going to take

Some time to get used to,

But can't you take
a little interest

In the child?

Now, I understand
that Pamela's going to

Be taking him to
the hospital today.

From a shop girl to a wet nurse.

That's a step up.

Don't you care
anything for the child?

The child is my punishment, j.r.

He reminds me that I was used

By two cruel men and
that I let my emotions

Get in the way of my good sense.

I've accepted the child.

Now, surely... J.r.,
you have always been

Too generous with
your affections.

It is your one big fault.

Now, if you'll excuse me,

I have to meet my
mama and my sister.

Cliff?

Pam, I'm glad you called.

Where are you?

How's the baby?

I thought you'd want to know,

The pediatrician
didn't find anything

Wrong with little John.

Did you tell him
about the disease?

Well, of course I didn't.

I'm on my way to Fort Worth now.

I made an appointment

With a really good doctor there.

I don't like it.

I think sue ellen should know.

She was so busy
getting ready for lunch

At the gardens this morning
with her mother and sister,

She never looked
at the baby once.

OK, well, give me the
name of the doctor.

I'll meet you there.

I think it's better if
you stay out of this.

Pam, where do you get off

Telling me what to do?

The responsibility is
mine and sue ellen's.

I'll call you after
I see the doctor.

Agnes, would you
get me a reservation at

The gardens restaurant
for lunch, please?

Thank you.

All right, mrs. Barnes,

What seems to be the
problem with your baby?

Well, nothing, I hope.

I just learned that my family

Has a history of
neurofibromatosis.

You didn't know that
before you became pregnant?

No.

Will you test my baby?

Oh, one more, please.

What a lovely place this is.

Sue ellen?

Mr. Barnes.

It's been quite a while.

I guess it has.

Mr. Barnes, my
mother mrs. Shepard.

How do you do?

And my sister kristin.

I'm happy to meet you.

Are you Pamela's brother?

Yes, I am.

Then you're the head

Of the office of
land management,

Aren't you?

Yes.

Well, you're a
very important man,

Mr. Barnes, especially
to the ewing family.

So I've been told.

Would you all care to join me?

Sue Ellen: NO.

No, uh, we wouldn't
want to impose.

It's no imposition.

I'm alone.

I'd enjoy having you.

Thank you, mr. Barnes,

But I haven't seen my
family in quite a while,

And we have a lot
of things to discuss.

Mama.

Alan.

Mr. Ewing.

I asked to meet you

In an out-of-the-way place,

But this is ridiculous.

I like the symbolism.

This is all you'll
be able to afford

If you don't stop cliff Barnes.

Well, here, have some coffee.

Tastes like that oil
you used to pump.

I want a lawyer, not a comedian.

Oh, from your phone call,

I gathered you wanted
more than a lawyer.

Maybe a hatchet man.

Well, I admire your
choice of words,

If not your choice
of restaurants.

Come on, talk to me.

I assume you want me to
leave Smith, field, bennet.

No, no.

Established law firm like that

Makes for a good cover.

Of course, there
are certain matters

I want you to report
to me directly.

Matters concerning
one cliff Barnes.

Yeah, you might have
to go undercover,

You know, do a little
discreet snooping.

Well, I'm known as
a devout ecologist.

Comes in handy these days.

That will allow me

Into cliff Barnes' inner circle

When it seems judicious.

Cliff Barnes doesn't give a damn

About ecology.

He hates ewings.

That's his only motive.

Come on, mr. Ewing,
you don't believe that.

You going to tell
me what I believe?

I wouldn't presume.

Come on, talk straight.

I talk straight,

You wouldn't have
any need for me.

I was born devious,
j.r., just like you.

I researched the ewings
just to be prepared

For a meeting like this.

You had to fight for
your place in your family.

I had to fight my way out

Of the back of the
yards of Chicago.

You don't do all that
fighting with your hands.

You do it with your
head and your mouth.

You can't beat up the other guy,

You verbally twist
him like a pretzel

And wash him down
with a schooner of beer.

You think you're going to

Wash down cliff Barnes, do you?

Yes, because his motive
isn't vengeance, it's power,

And men who want power

Are blind to
everything but that...

Present company
excluded, of course.

I think we're going to
make a pretty good team.

My privilege to work
for you, mr. Ewing.

To say nothing of the
tax-free cash bonuses.

Care to celebrate with

A triple-decker extra
juicy beef burger special?

Come on, boy,
I'll buy you lunch,

Teach you how to eat.

I want you to
meet my daddy, too.

Oh, and as far as
he's concerned,

You're still Smith,

Field, and bennet's
boy, you understand?

Till I hear otherwise.

All right.

Well, your son seems to be fine

At the moment.

We did a rather extensive
set of neurological tests,

And I find no
evidence of tumors.

As you can see, there
are no telltale signs...

No cafe au lait
spots on his body.

Then he doesn't have
neurofibromatosis.

No, mrs. Barnes, he has it.

See, we're talking
about a genetic disease

That's passed on
from parent to child.

If, as you tell me,

It was diagnosed in your father,

Then you have it and
so does your baby.

In fact, I would suggest
that you make an appointment

For a physical,

Because with your family history

It is important that you
have regular checkups.

What about my baby?

Mrs. Barnes, I wish
that I could say

Something more comforting.

You see, with adults
and this kind of thing,

The chances of it
being fatal are rare.

But unfortunately, with infants,

Tumors can show up anytime.

And quite often,

They do turn into
neuroblastomas.

What's that?

A malignancy, mrs. Barnes.

Cancer.

The rate of survival
in infants is not good,

And I'm sorry.

So, frequent checkups
are the best thing

That you can do for your baby.

Thank you, doctor.

Mrs. Barnes, I really
am terribly sorry.

I just thought that you
should know everything

In case you and your husband

Are thinking of
having another baby.

Pam, I don't understand

Why you had to
take the baby back

To southfork so quickly.

You knew I wanted to see him.

The way you
sounded on the phone,

I didn't know what you might do.

Wait a minute.

You're not my guardian.

That's right.

I'm not your guardian.

Right now, all you
know is your own pain.

Yes, it would be the best
of all possible worlds

If you could have your
son with you, but you can't.

Not now.

I'm worried about sue ellen.

I'm worried about
jock and miss ellie.

Do you know what
this can do to them?

And just how long do you think

You can keep it a secret?

As long as I have to.

From Bobby, too?

Pam, answer me.

Are you going to tell Bobby?

Bobby and I have been
trying to have a baby.

How do I tell him I can't?

Hey, daddy.

What are you doing

Standing here in the dark?

Heh, I didn't even
realize it was dark.

Well, come on, get
something to eat here.

I brought some chinese food.

I don't want any food.

You got to eat.

You got to gain your strength.

I got some soup.

I don't want any!

Come on.

Come on, you got to
get something to eat.

Hey, cliff... I'm sorry.

You're sorry?

I don't know what
you're sorry about.

Well, about that... That
long-sounding name,

That disease I gave you.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

Come on, don't be silly.

How could you know that?

How could you know about that?

And what's the alternative?

That you wish I
hadn't been born?

Oh, come on.

I love you.

Let's eat something.

You know, cliff, uh,

You're going to have to make

A very hard decision
one of these days...

Whether or not to
risk having any children.

Thank god we found
out about that disease

Before you decided to have any.

Mother sends her regrets,

But she has a date tonight.

An unexpected friend
showed up and insisted

That she go out
to dinner with him.

I'm sorry about that.

Miss ellie's drink.

Anyone we know, kristin?

I don't think so...
Lenny markward.

He manufactures farm equipment.

You bet he does.

Largest in the state.

Largest, huh?

Maybe that's somebody
we ought to talk to, j.r.

Find out if he's got any
clout down in Austin.

Yeah, yeah.

Why don't you ask your mother

To bring him home
for dinner some night?

Sue ellen.

Sue ellen.

Good evening.

Sue ellen, pam told
me that the doctor says

The baby's doing just fine.

He's gained 4 ounces.

Yeah, he's getting to be

A regular little
fatty, isn't he?

Yeah, just like his daddy.

Yeah, yeah.

Well, what do you
think of Alan beam, dad?

I think he's a smart boy.

If he'll help to
stop cliff Barnes,

I'm all for it.

Kristin: oh, we saw
cliff Barnes today.

Oh, where?

At the gardens restaurant.

He invited us to lunch.

He seemed like a very nice man.

What's Barnes doing eating
at the garden restaurant?

That's a female hangout
with watercress sandwiches.

Did you eat lunch with him?

Of course not, j.r.

Why would I eat lunch
with cliff Barnes?

Well, if we're going to
get to the theater on time,

We better get the
family together.

Kristin, you didn't have
to come home with us.

You could've stayed at
the theater with them.

No problem.

Are you still feeling dizzy?

I'm feeling better.

There just wasn't any air there.

Oh, well, I'll help
get you to bed.

No, no, that's
all right, kristin.

I'll take care of her.

Thank you, though.

Thank you.

All right, sue ellen.

Now, I've had enough
of your complaints.

What is it you want?

I want to go to bed.

Preferably alone.

No, uh-uh.

You're after something,

And I simply want you
to tell me what it is.

Of course, j.r., the first thing

That would enter your mind

Is that I'm after something.

I am after nothing.

I tell you, the time you spend

Up here in this bed...

Oh, and that little scene
in the theater this evening,

That was nice.

"Oh, miss ellie,

I'm having one of my
dizzy spells again."

You are not sick!

It's an act!

You know that!

Why, j.r., I didn't know
you practiced medicine.

Is that another one
of your secrets?

Yeah, and speaking of secrets...

I suppose that was an accident,

Your little meeting
with cliff Barnes

This afternoon.

It most certainly
was an accident.

Are you interested in me again

Because another man wants me?

It's the chase that's
important to you,

Isn't it, j.r.?

It always has been.

You are still carrying a torch

For that moth-eaten opportunist.

You're acting like a
lovesick school girl,

You know that?

Why, j.r. Ewing,

If I didn't know you better,

I'd think you were jealous.

Well, let me tell you something,

My loving and considerate

And totally selfless husband,

That I am not carrying

A torch for cliff Barnes,

And I don't know why

You would think I would be.

There's considerable history
to indicate you might be.

And as long as we're talking

About my emotions
and my feelings,

You can stop that
mr. Nice guy act of yours

That was no doubt inspired by

Your well-meaning
and ever-loving parents,

Because, j.r., my darling,

I know longer give a
damn about you, either.

J.r., is sue ellen all right?

Oh, yeah, she's fine.

Just fine.

Need a little company?

Well, I was just
going to take a drive.

It's kind of early to go to bed.

A drive sounds great to me.

You sure you wouldn't
rather go off to bed?

It's a little early for me.

Well, come on.

Ellie: did you like
the play, lucy?

Lucy: it was all right.

I would've preferred

An elton John concert instead.

I didn't like the plot
of that play anyway.

The idea of a first wife

Coming back to haunt a man

Just because he's
getting married again.

Well, I love it.

Now, you just hold
on there, miss ellie.

I expect you to be
around a long time.

Let's have a nightcap, huh?

You sure you told me
everything about digger?

Yeah.

Why?

Well, we were at
a comedy tonight

And you barely cracked a smile.

I guess my mind was elsewhere.

You want to tell me about it?

Put your arms around me, Bobby.

Sweetheart, you're shaking.

Now, what's the matter?

I've been trying
to find an easy way

To tell you.

Tell me what?

I can't go through
with having a baby.

Why?

Why?!

The idea made you
happy enough yesterday.

What's happened since then?

Don't get angry.

I have a right to be angry, pam!

I hope it's not this idea

About you losing
your identity again.

Having a baby, honey,

Doesn't make you
any less of a person,

No more so than
putting "for sale" signs

On dresses down at the store.

Is that how we make a decision?

You make up my mind for me?

I'm trying to understand you,

And you're not
explaining anything.

I can't explain if you
won't be reasonable.
