- Did you have fun?
- Yeah.

You want Peter here at Southfork?

Yeah, for John Ross,
somebody we can trust.

You're an inflexible, unbudging.
self-centered man...

...who can't think
beyond his own principles.

- That's not true.
- Get out.

What you did was break him up
with the woman...

...that could've gotten him
out of my hair.

I didn't break up Bobby and Pam
so he could many Jenna Wade.

I want him for myself.

I've decided
that I'm not gonna many Mark.

- Pam--
- I can't marry him...

...while I have these feelings
for Bobby.

[HORSE NEIGHING]

John Ross, drink your orange juice.

- I don't want it.
- I know, but it's good for you.

But it has that stuff in it.

That's the pulp. That's the best part.

JOHN ROSS:
But I don't like it.

SUE ELLEN:
Well, Teresa, we tried.

TERESA:
I'll strain it for you, John Ross.

J.R.:
Well, good morning, everybody.

Good morning.
would you like some breakfast?

No, no, I gotta run.
I'll just have coffee.

Well, we have to run ourselves.

- I'm still sleepy.
- And you're cranky.

And no wonder, I saw you peeking out
your window last night...

...at your friend Peter and Lucy
taking pictures. Did you have fun?

- Yeah.
J.R.: Well, as it should be.

- You like him here, don't you?
- Yeah.

You know, Sue Ellen, I was thinking.
There's a spark to John Ross...

...a real happiness when that boy is here
and maybe we ought to talk to him.

Have him come out to Southfork
on a regular basis.

You want Peter here at Southfork?

J.R.:
Yeah, for John Ross.

You saw the good
he did for him last summer.

We'd figure out some sort
of salary for him.

Yeah, but John Ross is in school now.

Only in the mornings.

J.R.:
That's right.

When he comes home all he does is hang
around Southfork with a bunch of adults.

He doesn't have anybody
his own age to play with.

Peter is hardly John Ross' age.

JOHN ROSS: He's my friend.
J.R.: Yeah, he sure is.

And he's a nice boy too.

Fine, upstanding character.
Somebody we could trust.

I didn't think you liked Peter.

I've been seeing him through
different eyes lately...

...and there's another reason for me
wanting him here.

I really think Lucy kind of likes that boy.

She likes him a lot.

J.R.:
Yeah, there you are.

I think I'll follow through on this.

I'll get his number from Lucy
and give him a call.

Daddy, can you make him come here,
okay?

Well, I'll ask him, that is.
If your mama doesn't have any objections.

Really doesn't matter to me at all.

Good, good. Then it's settled.

Yeah, I'll give him a call.
Have a good day, now.

[J.R. CHUCKLES]

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Yeah?

I'm sorry, Cliff, but there's no answer
at Marilee Stone's.

Well, damn it. I don't know
where that woman is.

I've been calling her number
every 15 minutes.

Well, I don't know
what to say, just...

Just keep calling her.

I will. Also there's a Miss Porter
here to see you.

I don't know anybody
by the name of Porter.

She's from the government.
It has to do with Gold Canyon 340.

Oh, okay. Yeah, okay.
tell her to come in.

- Miss Porter.
- Thank you.

Oh, Mr. Barnes, I'm Iris Porter,
Outer Continental Shelf.

- It's good to see you.
- Thank you.

Well, let me congratulate you
on winning your offshore tract.

- Thank you.
- Word has it...

...there's an awful lot of oil
under these waters.

Better be.

Now, your bid price was $157 million.

Twenty percent of which
you've already put down.

So that leaves us with a balance
of $125.6 million.

I know that, but it's--

But I have two weeks
to come up with the balance.

I've come here to give you the receipt
for your down payment...

...and the tract confirmation papers.

And, as you say, the law allows 14 days
after the auction for final payment...

...which gives you another 12 days.

Yeah, that's to come up with a hundred--

A hundred and twenty-live
point six million dollars.

Yeah.

If you shouldn't be able to do that,
of course, you will forfeit the 20 percent.

There's no problem about that.
I mean, I'll come up with the money.

I'm sure you will and I'll be here
in 12 days to collect it.

Well, it's been a pleasure meeting you,
Mr. Barnes.

And may I say...

...I really admire a man like you.

That bid you made took courage.

You are the type of American
that's made our country what it is today.

Thank you.

Oh, well, goodbye.

Goodbye.

There you are.

I've looked all over this house for you.

Morning, Clayton.

I thought we had a date for lunch.

We do. I just wanna finish this last mile
and then I'll get myself ready.

I had a call from Mavis Anderson
this morning.

Oh? Does she need something
for the party?

No, she just wanted to talk
about you and me again.

She thinks I have to push you harder
about setting the date for our wedding.

Oh, she does, does she?

You know Mavis. Her matchmaking
instincts are never too far from the surface.

Well, you can tell her
that you don't have to push me...

...because I already have a date in mind.

You do?

How does eight weeks
from Sunday sound to you?

Well, it sounds wonderful.
You mean it?

Oh, of course I mean it.

Well...

I am very pleased.

We'll tell the family tonight.

- All right?
- Sure, fine.

And I wanna get in touch
with your family...

...Dusty and his wife,
and your sister in London.

What kind of a wedding would you like?

Something very simple,
just our families and a few friends.

That's just wonderful.

I'm curious.

What made you finally set the date?

I don't know.

I woke up this morning
and I was thinking about you.

And suddenly, it just seemed right.

It is gonna seem right
for a long, long time.

- I hope so, Clayton.
- I guarantee it.

J.R., the Travis Boyd fields are a start.

But we have a lot of other dying fields
that needs replacing.

J.R.:
Yeah, I know that.

Well, when are we gonna do
something about it.

Bob, can I help it
if we lost two beautiful deals...

...to that conniving
ex-brother-in-law of yours, huh?

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

- Yup?
PHYLLIS: Ms. Wade is here to see you.

- Jenna.
- Oh, send her in, thank you.

I'm glad to see you two
are communicating again.

Well, Charlie, what are you doing here?

I wanted to talk to you, Bobby. Is it okay?

Of course it is, come on in.

Does your mama know you're here?

No, I took the bus over from school.

- How about that?
- Do you think it would be okay...

...if I talk to Bobby alone?

Sure. Lookit there, kicking your own brother
out of your office.

CHARLIE:
I'm sorry.

It's all right, honey.

I understand. Bobby and I
were finished anyhow.

Well, come on. What's on your mind?

Bobby, why have you and Mama
stopped seeing each other?

Oh, honey, that's a very long
and complicated story.

I just know it has something
to do with me.

- With you?
- Did I do something wrong that day?

What day?

You know the day you came
to get me at school...

...and we went to Southfork
and rode Darius?

- Yeah?
- That was the day you broke up.

Well, I know, honey.
but that had nothing to do with it.

You're mixing up
a lot of different things together.

I asked Mama,
but she won't talk to me about it.

That's why I came to see you.

- All right, calm down.
- Maybe it's because you bought me Darius.

I'd rather not have him.

I just want you and Mama back together.

Sweetheart...

...what happened with your mama
and me was strictly between the two of us.

It had nothing to do with you,
nothing at all.

- But--
- No buts. I've never lied to you before.

You believe that, don't you?

We", believe it. Your mama loves you
very much and so do I.

Do you remember when I told you that?

All right. I meant it then
and I mean it now.

- I was so scared I did something.
- Well, you didn't.

But I'll tell you what.

I'm gonna take the rest of the day
away from this office.

You and I are gonna spend
the afternoon together.

Doing what?

We'll think of something before we get
to the elevator. Is that a deal?

- It's a deal.
- Okay, come on, let's go.

JACKIE:
What on earth did you buy?

Well, I wanted a couple of new things
for Houston...

...and I think I went a little overboard.

Speaking of Houston, Mark's office called.
They're hoping you know where he was...

...because a friend of his from Houston's
trying to get in touch with him.

- Who?
- Jerry Kenderson .

Kenderson?

Mark's never mentioned him to me.

I'm surprised the office called here.
Doesn't Mark's secretary have his itinerary?

Evidently, he's done with the business pan
of his trip. Now he's just traveling.

They thought you might be
in touch with him.

No, I'm not.

I haven't spoken to him once.

Nothing like starting the workday
in the middle of the afternoon.

Now I have to punch a time clock?

No, I'm just kidding you.

- I'll just hang these up.
- Thanks, Jackie.

Listen...

...congratulations. Haven't seen you
since you got your offshore tract.

Oh, thanks, yeah.

I still got room for a partner,
if you're interested.

Especially since
you're a member of the family.

No, I don't think so.

That government lady
was in here before.

She said that that tract is really rich.

I'm sure it is but...

No.

I wish you all the luck in the world...

...but for my own part,
I think I should stay out of it.

Yeah, okay.

You wouldn't know
when Mark's coming back, do you?

No, I don't.

You don't know if it's like
the next week or so?

- I haven't heard from him.
- Okay. If you hear from him...

-...tell him to give me a call.
- Okay.

Katherine and I are going to Houston
for the Wentworth board meeting.

So even if he comes back to town,
I won't see him.

- If you hear from him, tell him to call me.
- Okay.

Okay.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

- Yeah?
SLY: Katherine Wentworth is here, J-R.

Send her in.

Take the rest of the night off.

- I won't be needing you.
- Thank you, good night.

Hello, J.R.

What's this problem you called me about?
I don't have a lot of time.

The one thing I never thought
you were was stupid.

Hey, look, I didn't come here
to be insulted.

You are here because of that asinine move
you made with Naldo Marchetta.

Of all that dumb,
idiotic things I ever heard.

Now, J.R., I don't find that dumb at all.

I simply isolated Bobby from Jenna,
just like I isolated him from Pam.

What you did was break him up
with the one woman...

...that could've gotten him
out of my hair for good.

I'm that woman, J.R., remember?

A bird in the hand, honey.

Jenna was in the hand
until you screwed it up.

Look, I didn't break up Bobby and Pam
so he could many Jenna Wade.

I want him for myself.

You just might have blown it
for all of us.

For all I know he could be there sniffing
around his ex-wife's door right now.

I don't give a damn who Bobby ends up
with as long as it's not Pamela Barnes.

Jenna was perfect, just perfect.

Well, I guess you'll have to do.

Well, you're certainly big
on compliments, aren't you?

With Bobby on the loose again...

...the only sure way to keep him
and that Barnes woman apart...

...is to make sure that she goes ahead
and marries Mark Graison.

I have no objection to that.

Oh, you have no objection to that,
do you?

Well, you just better keep pushing
until that happens, honey.

I'll do my best.

Well, your best better be real good...

...because if it's not, I'm gonna
play Bobby that little tape I made.

You remember?

You and me in the sack?

After he hears that
he'll never even look at you again.

- Hello, everybody.
ELLIE: Hello, Pam.

- Hi.
- Christopher.

I'm so happy
that you're gonna be staying with me.

Coffee, Pam?

Thanks. I've got to run.
I've still got some packing to do.

You're going to be in Houston
until when, Sunday?

No, probably until Monday 01 Tuesday.

I've got the Wentworth board meeting
and Katherine's throwing a party.

Well, we'll try and keep Christopher
from being too bored.

I think he'll do the same for you.

Okay, listen, you be a good boy, okay?

I love you, you be good, okay?
You be good.

Miss Ellie, thank you so much.

Thank you for letting me have him.

Bye-bye.

- I'll walk you out.
- Thank you.

Bye-bye, honey.

Oh, you're so good.

Now, what will we do?

Bobby told me
that Mark asked you to marry him.

Yes, he did. Several times.

But you haven't given him
an answer yet.

Uh-uh. I have to
when he gets back, though.

Do you know what it's gonna be?

I think so.

Pam, you're turning him down?

Yes.

I don't think it would be fair
to either one of us if I didn't.

Is it because of Bobby?

Yeah.

Daddy, are you sure
this is the right building?

Well, sure. It's the Psychology Department.
Oh, there's Peter right now. Go get him.

JOHN ROSS: Hey, Peter.
- Hey, my gosh.

- Glad we caught you.
- I'm on my way to my next class.

- Really.
- What are you doing here?

We played hooky from school today.

Yeah, that's right, we did.

We dropped by to make what I think
is an interesting proposition to you.

You're gonna come with us to Southfork.

Now, John Ross, would you please
let me lay it out for him?

You're liable to scare him off.

So we thought it'll be great if you'd drop by
the ranch three, maybe four times a week...

...and do for John Ross, more or less,
what you did for him last summer in camp.

You mean, be his counselor?

Yeah, yeah, something like that.
You know, a friend or a coach.

Let's face it, you've done wonders
for him already.

I can remember when he was terrified
to go in the swimming pool.

Can't get him out now.

That's because of Peter.

We're both very grateful to you.

Well, I don't know what to say.

Well, there's nothing to worry about.
We can fixed you up with a good salary.

- I do have school.
- Yeah, I know that. So does John Ross.

- But you're not tied up all day, are you?
- No.

But, you know, Lucy's got me
into all this modeling stuff too.

Oh, now, come on.

You're not gonna make a career
out of modeling.

You're too smart for that, Peter.

It's all right for extra bucks
but you're gonna be a psychologist.

Now, look, I'm offering you a chance
to work in your own field.

And just think how much time
you could spend at Southfork.

I know you like it there.

Peter, don't you wanna be with me?

Sure, I do. It's just that
it happened kind of sudden.

The boy really cares for you.

I really like him a lot too.

- That's why I want you to take the job.
- Peter, will you do it for me, huh?

I guess I can try for a month or so.

Oh, boy.

You little nut, you.

What did I tell you, son?
I knew he wouldn't let you down.

Well, that's it.
You've seen the geologicals.

Although my bid won,
it's only $2 million over the runner-up...

...so, you see.
we're all the same ballpark.

- Will you be having lunch, Mr. Barnes?
- Yeah, why not?

Do me a favor, though, Cassie.
hold the menus for a minute.

CASSIE:
Yes, sir.

Mr. Newton.
You mind if I call you Ellis?

- No, not at all.
- Fine, Ellis...

...every oil man in the business
knows how profitable my "act can be.

What I'm trying to say is
the bank doesn't have to worry...

...about getting its capital back.

Mr. Barnes, when a bank stops worrying
about things like that, it's out of business.

In any case, let's see.

Now the total sum that you want
to borrow is a $127 million. Am I correct?

Yeah. The purchase price
is $157 million.

And then I put a 20 percent
down payment already.

I assume, of course, you have an additional
hundred million or so in cash available.

A hundred million?

Well, 157 is just the purchase price.

Then you have the rigs,
the crews, interest on the loan.

You're in for at least a hundred more,
don't you think?

Uh...

I hadn't really figured
on quite that much.

But certainly I have enough
to get the project going.

All right.

If you think you can prove that to the
satisfaction of our board of directors...

...we could push through your loan
without trouble.

What kind interest are we talking about?

It seems to me, for a venture of this type,
we're talking about 18 percent.

Eighteen percent. Nobody charges that.

Mr. Barnes, we're looking
at a very high-risk situation.

And a risk like that is worth
a premium interest rate.

Now, is that negotiable in any way?

No, I'm afraid not.

Before I came today...

...I went over the material you sent me
with some of our people.

And we agreed on that figure
as our bottom line.

That's just astronomical.

Mr. Barnes, you're perfectly free
to look around.

There's absolutely no rush on our part.

Oh, sure. On your part, of course,
but what about on my part?

CASSIE:
I'll just leave these for you.

No, forget it, I changed my mind.

- I just need some time to think this out.
- I understand.

CLAYTON: You called Jessie?
ELLIE: Yes, I called her this morning.

It was 4:00 in the afternoon in England.

You said you're gonna write to her.

I was, but then I thought that the mail
service has been so had these days...

-...that it might be better if I called.
- What did she have to say?

Well, at first she was a little surprised
that her brother was getting married again.

But then she seemed to warm up to me
and she was really very sweet.

What about the wedding,
will she be coming?

She said she wouldn't miss it
for the world.

Aren't you pleased?

Well, sure, yes.

And not only that, I asked her
to stay here and she accepted.

Oh, Ellie, I don't think
that's such a good idea.

Stay at Southfork?
You two hardly know each other.

That's the whole point.
We'll get to know each other.

If she's gonna be my sister-in-law,
I'd like her to be my friend.

That's gonna be a lot of trouble for you.
Why don't we get her a suite at the hotel?

Oh, Clayton, don't be silly.
She'll be perfectly happy here.

Ellie, are you sure about all this?

Yes, of course I am.

I'll enjoy having her here.

Besides, what a great way to find out
all your deep dark secrets.

[CHUCKLES]

A pound of coffee, a box of tea.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

JENNA: Who is it?
BOBBY: It's me, Bobby.

Hi.

Hi.

- Can I come in?
- Sure.

- How have you been?
- Okay. You?

About the same.

- Can I get you something to drink? Coffee?
- No, no, no. Is Charlie asleep?

Yeah.

Sit down.

Thank you.

Charlie came to see me yesterday
at the office.

Yes, I know. She told me.

She was pretty upset.

She thinks the fact that we're not seeing
one another might be because of her.

So?

I thought we should talk about it.

Talk about Charlie?

Yes. Whatever's changed between us,
I don't want her hurt because of it.

Bobby, Charlie is my daughter
and my problem.

Why don't you just let me see
that she's not hurt.

Did I say something wrong?

Wrong?

You haven't said anything at all,
about us.

Bobby, I waited night and day for
a phone call since that night at Southfork.

I knew that you were confused and hurt...

...because you felt I lied to you
about Charlie being Naldo's daughter.

But I was sure that you'd understand
after a while why I did it.

Jenna, I understand why you did it.

But the fact remains
you lied to me for a long time.

And you know how I feel
about telling the truth.

The truth?

Your truth. Nobody else's truth,
only yours.

Why don't you just take your truth,
whatever it may be, and just leave.

Jenna, would you calm down
for a minute, please, and just listen.

No, I've listened to you enough.

I guess you're just too good
for anyone with all my flaws.

When I heard your voice
at the door I was happy.

I thought, "Finally, he came back.
He loves me.

That's all that matters.“
But obviously that's not the case.

- You don't understand.
- Oh, yes, I do. Now, I really do.

I understand you're an inflexible,
unbudging, self-centered man...

...who can't think beyond
his own principles.

- That's not true.
- Bobby, I love you...

...but I will not made to feel guilty
for what I did out of love.

I guess you're just too perfect for me.
No, don't say anything at all.

There's nothing to say.
Just get out, now.

J.R.: Well, come on in.
- Thank you.

Sit down. Sit down, please.

Well, I've never used your agency before
but it's very highly recommended.

For matrimonial work we're fast becoming
the best detective agency in Dallas.

Well, I won't need any matrimonial work.
My wife and I are very happily married.

It's my niece, Lucy, I'm concerned about.

- Lucy Ewing?
- Yeah, that's right.

She's the daughter of my brother Gary,
who I'm particularly fond of.

She's had a few
emotional problems lately.

You see, she was all getting all set
to many this young man, and--

Well, unfortunately, he died.

- I'm sorry.
- Yes. It was a great tragedy for all of us.

Anyhow, she's involved with another
young man by the name of Peter Richards.

Do you have an address on him?

Well, what I know about him
is right in here.

He's a student at SMU.

What I don't know about him
is his lifestyle, what his friends are like.

Does he a drink or do dope,
that sort of thing.

- We can look into all of that for you.
- Good, good.

That's exactly what I want you to do.

Nowadays, you can never tell what kind
of trouble a man's got himself into.

That's for sure, Mr. Ewing.

If he's got any skeletons,
we'll dig them up.

If not, we'll put them there.

- How's that, sir?
- Just a little joke.

I'm really worried about this girl.
I don't want to see her get hurt again.

- I'll get back to you soon.
- Thank you, I appreciate it.

It's a pleasure.

All right then, if nobody has anything
to add, I move that this meeting...

...of the board of directors
of Wentworth Industries be adjourned.

We'll resume again Monday
morning, 9:00. Can I have a second?

I second the motion.

- All in favor?
ALL: Aye.

Thank you, meeting is adjourned.

Secretary, see the time is entered
into the minutes.

I like that motion of yours, Katherine,
it made a lot of sense.

- Well, thank you, Mr. Wright.
- See you tomorrow, ladies.

- Okay, 3:00 now.
- I'm looking forward to it.

Okay. Excuse me.

You know, I think that little party of mine
is gonna tum out just fine.

Katherine, would you mind terribly
if I didn't come to your party?

Well, of course I'd mind.

What's the matter?
What's gotten you depressed?

Well, it's not all of a sudden.
I guess I just can't hide it anymore.

Katherine.

I've decided that
I'm not going to many Mark.

- Pam--
- No, wait a minute.

Don't say anything, all right?

I know how much you like him
and so do I.

But I can't marry him
while I have these feelings for Bobby.

Okay, all right. I won't say anything.

In any case, Mark is still away
and Houston is my home.

Besides, I have bragged
about my beautiful sister...

...and my friends
are very anxious to meet you.

Oh, Pam, please do this for me?

All right. I probably won't be
very much fun, though.

Oh, of course you will.
You're my guest of honor.

You're required to be fun.

- Well, hi.
SUE ELLEN: Hello, Peter.

I understand you're gonna be
coming around on a regular basis.

MY. my. my.
there goes the neighborhood.

- Oh, thanks for the warm welcome.
- Oh, anytime.

- I'll go get John Ross.
- Okay.

Peter, I just want you to know that
I'm not very happy about this arrangement.

Well, don't worry, because I realized
this relationship will never happen.

It's just not possible.

- Then why did you take the job?
Because I care.

I still care about you
and I care about John Ross.

Peter, I just can't handle any more
bad scenes.

There won't be any more.

- Are you sure?
- Yes.

Believe me.

I guess I don't have a choice, do I?

[DOORBELL RINGS]

- Vaughn Leland, good to see you.
- Good to see you too, Cliff.

Sorry, I'm late.

That's no problem, come right on in.

Have a seat.

Thank you.

- Can I get you a drink?
- Oh, no, no. No, thanks.

You could've knocked me over
with a feather when you phoned.

- How'd you know I was looking for money?
- When somebody's in the market...

...101 over $220 million,
every banker in the state hears about it.

Well, I'll tell you,
I was gonna borrow $127 million...

...and then I figured out, wait a minute,
why use up all my cash reserves?

Very smart.

I mean, if you have to borrow,
you might as well arrange for it all at once.

That's the way I figured it.

I'm not gonna waste your time.
I know you've got things to do tonight.

Just let me say, I put a group together...

...and we can supply
all the money you want.

- What interest rate?
- Very reasonable, 13 percent.

That's two points over today's prime.

Well, we've got a right to make
a little profit too, don't you think?

Oh, no, no, no, yeah.
no, I'm not complaining.

We may have to make
some adjustments...

...if the prime changes dramatically.

But I'm sure we can work something out.

Oh, no, I'm sure we can. Now, you're gonna
put up $227 million right away.

Oh, no. No, no.

Well, why pay interest
on money and not use it?

You'll get the 127 now
to finalize the purchase.

We'll deliver the rest
in increments as you need it.

Yeah, that's fair enough.

- Hi, I'm home.
CLIFF: Hi, honey.

- You remember Vaughn Leland?
- Yes, I do.

Hello, Afton. It's nice to see you.

If you'll excuse me, I'll be in the kitchen.

We", say, why don't I just run along
and leave you two alone.

You think things over,
get back to me tomorrow.

Oh, yeah. Well I'll have to think things over.
But I'll tell you, I am interested.

I kind of thought you would be.

Good night, Afton.

Oh, baby, I think the sun
is shining down on me finally.

Cliff, don't tell me you're actually gonna
do business with that disgusting man.

You bet your life I am. Vaughn Leland is
gonna let me borrow at 5 percent less...

...than I can get anywhere else,
and for the kind of money I need.

Oh, that's worth a fortune.

I got to make this deep.

I mean, everything
I've worked for is on these bonds!

[POTS CLANGING]

I'm sorry, I don't know.

[SIGHS]

I guess the pressure got to me.

SUE ELLEN:
Bobby?

Hello, Sue Ellen.

You're not even dressed yet.

You better hurry up,
or you're gonna be late for the party.

Oh, I'm not going to the party.

Really?

Punk and Mavis are gonna be
very disappointed.

- What's the matter, aren't you feeling well?
- No, it's not that.

Guess I'm a little depressed.

Jenna read me the Riot Act last night...

...and I started to wonder if some
of the things she said about me were true.

Well, what did she say?

She said I was inflexible...

...self-centered and didn't care much
about other people's problems.

Well, you're not the most
flexible person in the world.

Well, maybe you're right.

Maybe that's what Pam saw
and I didn't when we split up.

Anyway, I don't feel like going to a party.
Will you make my apologies for me?

Of course.

Thank you.

Bobby.

I don't know how to say this,
it really isn't any of my business...

...but Pam told me that she had decided
not to many Mark Graison.

Why not?

- Well, don't you know?
- I don't have the slightest idea.

Because of the way
she still feels about you.

CLAYTON: Well, I think I'll invite myself
a nightcap. Anybody else interested?

- Yes, I'll join you.
- How about you two?

- I'm a little tired. I think I'll go up to bed.
- Yeah I'm going up too.

- Good night, Mama.
- Good night.

- Clayton.
- Night.

SUE ELLEN:
Good night.

- Well, I guess that leaves just you and me.
- Well, I'm not complaining.

- What can I fix you?
- Well, maybe I'll have a brandy.

Well, I think I can manage one of those.

Well, Sue Ellen, that was a lovely evening,
and I really wanna thank you.

- There's nothing to thank me for.
- Sure there is.

For being so beautiful
and gracious to all our friends.

You know, I saw you talking to Mavis
and I just stood there and watched you.

You were that same beautiful girl
I met years ago...

...when things were so good between us.

That was many years ago.

Makes me really regret
you losing the baby.

Good night, honey.

J.R., John Ross is asleep.

Yeah, yeah, I know, I just want
to look in on him for a minute.

You know, I can't get over
how happy he's been...

...since we got Peter
to start coming here.

That's not so surprising.

You know, it's not easy for me to
share someone I love with another person.

And seeing John Ross so happy...

...makes me feel good.

That's very nice.

Sweet dreams, darling.

- Oh, sweetheart, don't put the eggs in yet.
- Well, when do I put them in?

When the bacon's done.
Otherwise, they'll be cold.

- I'm starved.
- Me too.

[PHONE RINGING]

Who's calling?

- Hello.
- Cliff, can you hear me? It's Mark.

Mark? Well, I can hear you, yeah.
Where are you?

We thought you'd left forever.

I'm still in the Middle East.

There hasn't been a phone
within miles for weeks.

You all right?

I'm a little exhausted. Haven't stayed
in one place longer than 30 minutes...

...and I think I picked up some kind
of a bug. Outside of that, I feel fine.

I tried to call Pam
but there was no answer.

J thought she might be with you-
- No, Pam and Katherine...

...flew down to Houston this weekend
for a Wentworth board meeting.

Oh, I see.

Listen, you probably haven't-- Well, no.
of course you haven't heard...

...but I won the bid
on the offshore tract.

- That's too bad.
4 guess you didn't hear me- I said, I won.

Yeah, I heard you, I still think you're
out of your league. You're gonna get hurt.

Well, I'm sorry you feel that way.

I was gonna give you an opportunity
to come in with me.

I can't do that, Cliff.

Now, listen, tell Pam
that I miss her, okay?

And I'll be coming home very soon.

Okay, yeah, it's good to talk to you.

Bye.

[HORSE NEIGHING]

- Hey.
- Hi, Ray.

There you go.
You wanna go see your Uncle Ray?

- Let me have him for a little bit.
- Hang on, there you go.

How about that?
You like riding them horses, huh?

- Missed you at the party last night.
- Well, I didn't feel much like partying.

Well, Sue Ellen said
you were feeling down.

Kind of figured it has something
to do with Jenna. Having problems?

Yeah, things haven't been working out
quite the way I thought they would.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that.
Does Pam know about that?

As a matter of fact, I told her.
She's in Houston this week.

I almost bundled up Christopher
and went down for a visit.

She probably would've liked that.

I'm not so sure. I haven't been making
the best decisions lately.

There's a lot I could give you
advice about...

...but I don't know about those two
women. I couldn't help you there.

Don't worry about it. I'll work it out.
Keep an eye on him, I'll put Tony away.

Sure.

Thank you. Come on.

[PIANO MUSIC PLAYING]

Hi, are you having a good time?

What better way
to spend a Sunday afternoon, huh?

- Katherine.
- Hi, James, you made it.

Of course I made it. Would I miss it?

- Jump into my arms, we're dancing.
- No, really, I can't--

Listen, listen, listen.
they're playing our song.

James, we don't have a song.

We do now.

[LAUGHS]

Excuse me, you're Pamela Ewing,
aren't you?

Yes.

- My name is Jerry Kenderson.
- The man who's been trying to reach Mark?

Yes, Mark and I are very old friends.
We went to school together.

I've called his office several times but
they don't seem to be able to reach him.

Would you have any idea where he is?

Well, no. He's been traveling and
I haven't heard from him since he left.

He's told me about you.

I thought you might know a hotel he
was staying at or a friend he was seeing.

No, he didn't mention anything at all.

You seem awfully concerned.

I am. It's extremely important
that I get a hold of him.

Could I know what this is about?
Mark and I are really very close.

I know that, he's talked about you.

I'm afraid this is very personal,
I have to talk to Mark himself.

If you speak to him, no matter where he is,
please ask him to call me immediately.

Sure.

Thank you.

- Dr. Kenderson.
- Yes.

Dr. Kenderson?

Doctor...

Well, everything seems
to be moving in the right direction.

Now, here's how it's gonna work
between you and me.

Your bank is gonna put up
$120 million...

-...right?
- Right.

You'll use Barnes-Wentworth
as collateral...

...and I'll put up the other $100 million
in increments as needed.

And you're gonna funnel
all that money through me.

You don't think I'm gonna
give Cliff Barnes a check...

...with Ewing Oil
written on it do you? No.

I'll feed your bank
through a personal account.

And borrow against my trust fund
if I have to.

So Bobby won't find out.

That's right.

Now, at a certain time,
dictated by us, of course...

...Mr. Barnes' credit
is mysteriously going to dry up.

He'll be halfway into his wells by then.

And he'll be forced to sell off some
very valuable property just to keep going.

Now, what he won't know...

...is I'm gonna be out there buying
up all that property he sells.

Who knows, I might even pick up
that offshore tract...

...for nothing more
than a little lose change.

[CHUCKLES]

You know, J.R., not in my wildest
imagination did I ever dream...

...that you and I would be
working together again.

I'm sure glad you called me in on this.

Yeah, it's gonna work out just fine,
Vaughn.

Your bank will foreclose
on Barnes-Wentworth...

...and I get myself
a lot of valuable properties...

...should have been mine anyhow.

It's gonna be a good deal for everybody.

Everybody but Cliff Barnes.

[CHUCKLES]

PAMELA: Katherine.
- Yes?

Do you know who that man is
right there?

He's a friend of some friends of mine.
His name is Jerry Kenderson.

- Is he a doctor?
- I think so, why?

- Excuse me for a minute, okay?
- Okay.

Dr. Kenderson, excuse me,
may I speak to you for a moment?

Yes, of course. Excuse me.

Dr. Kenderson, you have me very worried.

Please tell me why you're so anxious
to reach Mark.

I can't.

I have the feeling
that something's very wrong.

- Miss Ewing, I can't discuss it with you.
- Is Mark having some kind of a problem?

Please.

Mark is very important to me.

He has no family, so if he's having any kind
of trouble, there's nobody else to help him.

You don't understand
the difficult position I'm in.

You said that you're his friend.

Yes, I'm his oldest friend.
I've known him since childhood.

But I'm also a doctor.

Is Mark sick?

Miss Ewing.

Please, you've got to tell me.

Hasn't Mark told you
that he asked me to marry him?

Yes.

It's just unethical for me
to discuss this with you.

Please.

He's gonna need all the love you can give
to him in the next few months.

Why? What's wrong with him?

Mark came to see me a few weeks ago.

It was a problem with his leg,
it wasn't serious.

Before he left, I gave him
a physical examination.

A complete physical examination.

Including a full complement
of blood tests.

While the lab was doing the test,
they found something...

...strange. So I had them do more tests.

What did you find?

A very rare blood disease.

A form of leukemia.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I had them double check
and triple check everything.

Well, now that we know what's wrong,
what are we gonna do to cure him?

There's nothing we can do.

It's irreversible.

Are you telling me...

...that Mark is going to die?

I'm so sorry.

Oh, my God.

Oh...
