If I marry Mark, I lose Bobby forever.

Bobby is out of your life.

I don't think I can adjust to that way of thinking.

You angry with me, Clayton?

Some things are better 0” left in the past.

Well, some of our past is always with us, Clayton.

I love you.

And you're worth waiting for...

...but not forever.

I get the idea that you might not think that this wedding is made in heaven.

I'm sure I feel about it the same as you do.

Wouldn't it be awful if something happened and it didn't come off?

- Well, good morning. - Morning.

I've been admiring your beautiful ranch.

Well, you can't see very much of it from here.

Maybe later on, I'll take you on a tour.

I'd like that.

You know...

...I don't think I thanked you properly for that beautiful sword you gave me.

- Oh, I'm happy you like it. - Oh, I do, indeed.

I'm gonna be careful where I hang it.

I wouldn't want some hot-blooded Texan giving me a shave, would I?

You don't mean a jealous husband, do you?

No, of course not. Well, you met my wonderful wife.

- Who would be fool enough to cheat on her? - Who indeed.

Then it must be a business competitor. Oh, I've heard.

Ewing Oil has its share of enemies, especially J.R. Ewing.

J.R.: Hmm.

Well, in that case, you know a great deal more about me than I do about you.

You know, until a couple of months ago, I didn't even know you existed.

- Is that true? - Yeah.

As well as this family knows Clayton Fallow...

...he never once mentioned that he had a sister.

Well, why would he?

I haven't been part of Clayton's life for many years.

Why talk about his sister in England?

Well, in any event, I sure am glad you're here.

You know, for some reason, I pictured you'd be a lot more like my mama...

...and not the attractive younger woman that you are.

Now I see why you're considered dangerous.

Your mother is a beautiful woman.

I'm sure she and Clayton will be very happy together.

Yeah, I'm sure they will.

When I know you better, I'll know whether or not you meant that.

Oh, I do. I want nothing more than my mama to be happy.

Sounds like there's a but at the end of that.

Well, maybe a little one.

You see, Clayton is doing something I'd never do.

He's becoming a second man in a one-man house.

You think Clayton would take over Southfork?

Would he be stepping on your toes?

Oh, no, no, I'm not talking about that.

You see, this was Daddy's ranch, his house.

Mama was his wife, that's just the way things were.

And that's all over, of course.

What I'm trying to say is...

...it's gonna be hard to adjust to the idea of Clayton moving in here.

But like I said...

...I want my mother to be happy.

I'm sure, given the chance, they'll have a wonderful life together.

Sure.

Well, breakfast is about ready. Shall we?

Why not?

I'm gonna hold you to your promise to show the ranch.

J.R.: Oh, good. - Perhaps we can talk more.

[PHONE RINGING]

- Hello. LUCY: Hi, it's Lucy.

Oh, hi, Lucy. I was just on my way out.

It won't take long.

There's still time to change your mind about the trip.

The agency and the client really did like you a lot.

Lucy, look, I'm really sorry...

...but I'm not cut out for that.

I don't know, I don't feel comfortable in front of a camera...

...and besides, I told you...

...I have a commitment to John Ross.

Oh, wonderful. I hope the two of you will be very happy.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

Yes?

WOMAN [OVER INTERCOM]: Pam, your sister's here.

Um, tell her to come in.

- Hi, Pam. - Hi.

How are you?

I don't know.

Lost in limbo somewhere.

Well, I can understand that.

It was so difficult last night, seeing how happy Mark was...

...and knowing what we know about him.

It's all I've been thinking about.

But you must know that you made the right decision.

If Mark didn't have you, well. he'd be all alone.

I don't know if I made the right decision.

Maybe Mark should know.

Do I have the right to take that choice away from him?

What do you mean?

Maybe if Mark did know, he wouldn't want to get married.

Maybe he'd want to do other things, travel to places he's never been...

...make love to other women.

Do all the things he has so little time left to do.

How well do you know Mark? You must know that it's you he wants.

He gave up all those other things when he found you.

- I know. - Pam, look...

...Mark has been everywhere, he's done everything...

...he's been a playboy all his life.

The only thing he really wants now is you.

The day he marries you might very well be the happiest day of his life.

Well, what about me?

If I marry Mark, I lose Bobby forever.

If you felt that way, you never should have divorced him.

It all really ended right there.

Besides, whatever problems Bobby and Jenna are having...

...I'm sure they'll get back together sooner or later.

Pam, you've gotta face it.

Bobby is out of your life.

I don't think I can ever adjust to that way of thinking.

Well, you're just gonna have to.

Look, Mark is a wonderful man...

...and he loves you very much.

Now, you told him that you'd marry him.

You can't change your mind now.

No, I can't.

But I don't know how much longer I can go on pretending that everything's all right.

Well, somehow, you'll have to.

We all do. We can't do anything else.

Mr. Barnes.

Hi, Sly. Why'd you call me?

Well, we haven't talked in a while...

...and I wasn't sure if you wanted our arrangement to continue.

I must admit that the money you've paid me in the past has been very useful.

Well, I don't know.

I would like to continue to know what J.R.'s doing...

...but, you understand, it's just not as vital to me as it used to be.

Yes. Well, I can certainly imagine, now that you've won that offshore tract...

...how busy you must be.

That's not the word for it.

- Have you started exploratory drilling yet? - Yeah.

We've already drilled down quite a ways.

Boy, that cost a lot of money.

I mean, you don't have any idea what kind of money that cost.

I mean, there's the drilling rigs and the crew...

...and there's a kitchen going there 24 hours a day.

You know who pays for that? Right here.

They got helicopters going back and forth, $300 an hour.

Plus the cost of the pilots.

- Right here. - I had no idea.

Well, I can see that the little deals J.R.'s thinking about wouldn't interest you.

What kind of deals?

Oh, little 15, $20 million land leases.

He and Bobby are worried about how old the Ewing fields are.

They're trying to find others to replace them.

Yeah?

You know, I get the feeling that J.R. is very unhappy...

...he didn't outbid you on that Gold Canyon 340 tract.

Well, he had his chance...

...and he shouldn't have let Bobby talk him out of it.

I don't think he's forgiven Bobby yet for making him do that.

He's very worried.

- He's worried? About what? - You.

He's really afraid you're gonna hit it big.

He keeps talking about how rich that "act is.

The thing he's afraid of is, if you keep drilling...

...one day soon, Barnes-Wentworth is gonna be bigger than Ewing Oil.

He's got every reason to worry. I am not quitting until I do hit.

- I think I believe that. - I'll tell you what.

If J.R. does get close to something, you let me know.

I wouldn't mind beating him out of another little deal.

I sure will.

- Good luck, Mr. Barnes. - Thanks.

Hey, buddy, bring me another beer.

- Bye, Sue Ellen. SUE ELLEN: Are you leaving already?

Yeah, the limo's here.

Caribbean should be lovely this time of year.

Yeah, well, that's what I told Peter, and he still wouldn't go.

You know, it's strange. The agency likes him, the client likes him.

He really could have made a lot of money.

But no, he said he had a commitment to you and J.R.

Well, I'm sure that commitments mean a great deal to Peter.

No, that's not it.

Not really.

Sue Ellen, do you think Peter is gay or anything?

Why, no, Lucy. What a strange thing for you to ask.

You think so?

I know for a fact that he did not date any of the girl counselors this summer.

And some of them were real pretty. He never seems to go out.

Well, I think he probably spends his free time studying.

- School is very important to him. - Maybe.

I know I'm not the world's greatest sex symbol...

...but I'm not exactly a dog either.

And I've practically just thrown myself at him, and zero is all I get back.

- Lucy, I think you're overreacting. - I don't think so.

I really think there might be something kind of funny there.

I can't figure out why a normal guy would rather be at Southfork...

...with John Ross and you, than out with a girl.

You're getting all worked up over nothing.

I'm sure there's a simple answer.

Well, if there is, I'm gonna find it. Believe me.

- White wine for me, please, Cassie. - Yes, ma'am.

- You still remember what I drink, Clayton? - I sure do.

- Two bourbon and branch, Cassie. - Yes, sir.

Pretty room.

You can see the whole city from here.

As flat as Dallas is, you can see it from the top of a one-story building.

It sure has changed since I was here the last time.

I was getting ready to graduate from middle school...

...and Daddy brought me up here to buy my graduation dress.

- That was a long time ago, Jess. JESSICA: Yes, it was.

Funny.

I didn't even know Southfork existed then, and now I'm staying there.

- I hope your room is all right. JESSICA: Oh, it's fine, Ellie.

I didn't want you to go to all that trouble redecorating it for me though.

Oh, we've been redoing the whole house.

We almost lost it all in a fire last year.

You did?

Isn't that strange?

Well, I suppose Clayton told you, we lost our home at Southern Cross in a fire.

Yes. Yes, I know that.

Poor Amy died in that fire.

Oh, that was an awful time for you, Clayton.

Uh, if you'll excuse me, I'll be back in a minute.

- Oh, did I upset you, talking about Amy? - No, no, of course not.

Clayton's told me all about it.

But I do have to powder my nose.

She's lovely, Clayton.

Sometimes she reminds me of Amy.

Forget about Amy.

I wish you wouldn't bring up the fire.

It was a long time ago and just as well forgotten.

You angry with me, Clayton?

It's just that some things are better 0” left in the past.

Well, some of our past is always with us, Clayton.

At least with me.

Cheers.

GRAISON: You didn't realize I was a softie, did you?

Taking you to see an old romantic love story like that. I bet I surprised you.

PAMELA: You never cease to surprise me, that's one of the things I like.

GRAISON: Good.

Look, it's very early, why don't we get something to eat?

Oh, I don't know about tonight.

I'd like you to take me to some fancy restaurant tomorrow.

Okay.

Oh, speaking of tomorrow, you know. a very strange thing happened.

When I went into the office today...

...I had a stack of messages from an old friend.

A guy named Jerry Kenderson.

While I was there, he called again, he said he'd run into you in Houston.

Oh, Jerry Kenderson. I thought the name sounded familiar.

What did he want?

Didn't say. He wanted to speak to me.

You know, he's my doctor, maybe an old war wound flared up or something.

Anyway, the point is, he's flying up tomorrow, and we're gonna meet.

No.

- No, not tomorrow. - Why not?

Well, because we're engaged.

And I want an engagement ring, and I want it tomorrow.

Anyway, I wanna buy you a new suit...

...and I want you to help pick out some things.

That sounds great, but what do I tell Jerry?

I noticed that he and Katherine got along really well in Houston.

Why don't the four of us get together?

Little Miss Cupid, huh? Are you planning a double wedding?

I don't know.

Why don't you give me Jerry's home number, I'll call him tonight.

He's not married, is he?

Listen, when I'm gone, he'll be the last great bachelor left in Texas.

- Well, then? - Sure, why not? Call him tonight.

If marriage is good enough for me, it's good enough for him.

Okay.

Evening, J.R.

Hello, Harry, come on in.

Fix yourself a drink.

I'm sorry to spoil your Friday evening, calling you up here.

I wasn't doing much of anything anyway.

- Something I can do for you, J.R.? - Yeah.

I got a problem you can help me solve.

Clayton Fallow?

- No, no, but keep on digging. - We are.

Now, this involves a young man by the name of Peter Richards.

I just had him investigated by a very good private detective.

And he came up clean.

Very.

- And you want me to put a little din there? - No. No, not yet.

Here's the information, his address and so forth.

He's a student at SMU.

Most afternoons you'll find him with John Ross.

What do you want?

One of these days when he's away...

...why don't you just drop in on his apartment?

Look around, see how tough it'd be to get in there.

If you ever had cause to bust him one night.

Want me to leave a little something there?

No, no, just find a good spot, huh?

Yeah, I hear this younger generation uses a lot of illegal substances.

Yeah, so I've heard.

Now, just how big a criminal is this young man?

Misdemeanor? Felony?

One year? Five years?

We'll see. Maybe we'll just let the punishment fit the crime.

Here's to crime.

And to punishment.

[PHONE RINGING]

Hello.

PAMELA: Hello, Dr. Kenderson, this is Pam Ewing.

Oh, hello. Uh...

You've talked to Mark, I imagine.

- Yes. - I tried to reach you earlier...

...to tell you I was gonna call Mark, but I didn't connect with you.

You've changed your mind about not telling him?

Miss Ewing. I know how you feel...

...but I think Mark has the right to know he's dying.

Could you do one more thing for me, please?

I told Mark that you and my sister have a thing for each other...

...and I convinced him that we should all have dinner together tomorrow.

After I see Mark, I don't think either of us is gonna wanna have dinner.

Mark can't see you, he and I have the day filled.

That's why I arranged dinner.

I wanna talk to you before you see Mark.

Miss Ewing, I don't think our talking again is going to change anything.

Well, if it doesn't, you can always tell him later.

I don't know.

Can one more day really make that much difference?

I suppose not.

Thank you.

Um...

We'd planned on having dinner about 8:30, so Mark was going to pick me up at 8.

If you could come to my house a little earlier, say 4:30 or 5.

All right, but please don't get your hopes up.

My address is 227 Antioch Drive.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

KATHERINE: Hello. - Katherine?

Yes, Pam.

Katherine, I'm really going to need your help tomorrow.

SUE ELLEN: Don't rush. You're gonna make yourself sick if you eat that fast.

I wanna be ready when Peter gets here.

I'm sure he'll wait for you. Besides, he might want some breakfast of his own.

- Do I have to finish my cereal? - Well, I really don't know what the rush is.

We're going to the aquarium.

Well, good morning.

Peter, I'm almost ready.

Good morning, Peter.

Hey, hey, hey, slow down there, John Ross. Chew it.

Well, where are you two 0” to so early?

Well, we have a full day ahead of us.

There's a natural science exhibit at Fair Park.

And then, I thought the aquarium, and then maybe a movie.

That is a full day.

I'm ready.

- Wait, no kiss? JOHN ROSS: Oh, yeah.

- Bye-bye, have fun. JOHN ROSS: Bye.

J.R.: Whoa! Ha-ha-ha!

- How you doing, bud? JOHN ROSS: Fine. Bye, Daddy.

J.R.: Bye, son. - Bye, Mr. Ewing.

Peter.

Have you ever seen John Ross so happy?

Every time I see those two together...

...I know how right I was in getting Peter to come out here for him.

John Ross is happy...

...but perhaps it would be better it he spent more time with children his own age.

He spends plenty of time with kids his age at school, honey.

- Still... - Is there some reason...

...you don't want Peter here that I am unaware of?

Well, it's Lucy.

What the hell does Lucy have to do with this?

Well, if you remember, one of the reasons you brought Peter here...

-...was because Lucy was sweet on him. - So?

SUE ELLEN: It seems to be working out badly.

Peter isn't interested in her at all, and it's--

Well, it's hurting Lucy. Especially because he's around so much.

The course of true love never runs smooth, honey, you know that.

J.R., this is no time for your clever little remarks.

This is very painful for Lucy.

I was just thinking that it would be better it Peter didn't work here.

Well, your concern for Lucy is very touching, darling, if sudden...

...but John Ross is a lot more important to me, so Peter stays.

- But-- - No buts, darling. Lucy's gonna be just fine.

It seems you might spend more time planning that party for Jessica...

...than worrying about your bubble-headed niece.

I have already sent all the invitations out.

Oh.

Well, good. Good. Thank you.

Now, if you don't mind, I'd like a little peace and quiet so I can enjoy my breakfast.

By all means, darling.

Don't let any family problems interfere with your food.

- Is that your idea of peace and quiet? - It's what passes for it here.

Well, I can see it's gonna be along weekend.

It generally is.

GRAISON: I can't believe you've never seen the pyramids.

Not everyone's seen all Seven Wonders of the World.

Are you kidding? That's where we'll go on honeymoon.

To see where they used to be. First, we'll start in Egypt...

...then we'll go to Europe, India. China, Australia.

And then there's a great game park called Motswari.

- It's in the Kruger National Park. - Mark--

No, no, no, really. You go out in open Land Rovers at midnight...

...and you shine spotlights into the brush.

And you never know, you might see a warthog, but it could be a lion...

...you know.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

I think that's Bobby.

We were bound to see him. Today's as good a day as any.

ANNIE: Good morning, Mr. Ewing. BOBBY: Good morning, Annie.

- Good morning. PAMELA: Hi.

GRAISON: Bobby. - Hello, Mark.

- Is Christopher ready? - He's upstairs. I'll go get him.

Be right back.

How about some coffee?

No, thank you. I had breakfast at the ranch.

You know, Bobby, I don't expect you to congratulate me...

...but I would like us to at least be cordial to one another.

- It's not easy. - Well, no, I'm sure it's not.

You know I love Pam. I'll take care of her.

- She'll never want for anything. - I know that.

And I also love Christopher. He'll always be your son.

There's no way in the world I wanna change that.

I appreciate that. Look, Mark. I understand you're a decent guy.

But the way things stand...

...like you said at the barbecue...

...we'll probably not befriends...

...but there's sure no sense in us being enemies.

Well, that's the way I feel.

- Here's your daddy. - Hey, partner. Hi, come here.

There you are. How you doing? Do I get a kiss, huh?

Aww. Thank you. Oh, we're a little sad.

I'll bring him back tomorrow.

- All right, fine. - Okay.

Look, uh...

This isn't easy to say.

I wish the best for you.

I hope you'll be happy together.

That's all.

Thank you, Bobby.

Yeah.

Come on, partner.

You two seem to be doing all right. I'll be on the blanket.

Okay.

More of anything?

BOBBY: No, thank you.

Well, how was it?

It was fine.

JENNA: Well, at least you're polite.

What?

Why did we bother coming here today?

Or rather, why did you bother bringing me here?

You haven't said two words all day.

I'm sorry.

I'm not in a very good mood today, I guess.

JENNA: It's not my fault.

And if the problem is you and Pam, I really don't wanna hear it.

Pam and Mark Graison are getting married.

How am I supposed to react?

I don't know.

How do you wanna react to it?

I think I should be happy...

-...but there's a problem. - Why?

Why should that be a problem for you?

It'd be a lot better for me if you'd gotten her out of your system...

...before she married Mark. Now I don't know.

That has nothing to do with the way I feel about you.

You don't know how you feel about me.

Remember you told me...

...you didn't wanna make love with me for the wrong reasons?

Well, I don't want you with me because you're trying to rebound from Pam.

Jenna, that's not why I'm here. I'm here because I care about you.

What's that old song? “If this isn't love, it'll have to do.“

I don't wanna lose you...

...but it's gonna take some time.

All right, Bobby.

Have you...

...and you're worth waiting for...

...but not forever.

J.R.

In here, Vaughn.

J.R.

Picked up some pizza, you want some?

Oh, no, thanks.

I think my ulcer's been acting up lately.

Oh, well, that's a shame. But I guess a high-pressure job like you've got...

-...ulcers aren't so unusual, are they? - No.

Don't you ever have trouble with your stomach, J.R.?

Only when there's too much of it.

I once did business with a man who said:

“J.R. Ewing doesn't get ulcers, he gives them.“

Well, now, have you heard from Cliff Barnes lately?

Not for a while.

Well, you will soon.

My sources tell me he's drilled down two miles already...

...and you know he hasn't hit a thing.

He's starting to complain about how much feed his crews eat.

So I figure he's just about out of his own money right now.

I thought it wouldn't take too long.

I heard he paid premium time and a bonus to get that exploration rig out in a hurry.

Mm-hm.

Yeah, I expect he's gonna be knocking on your door...

...wanting to tap in on that next hundred million.

- Do I give him some? - Sure.

We don't wanna pull the plug on him yet, do we?

How much?

Not as much as he's gonna ask for...

...which I figure is gonna be around 30 million or so.

No, you persuade him to take 20 million...

...providing, of course, he has acceptable collateral.

Well, he's already put up Barnes-Wentworth.

Now, these holdings are the rest of his collateral.

Well, these are kind of shaky holdings, aren't they?

Well, you just tell him that acceptable collateral is everything on this list...

...except for the two on the bottom.

Murphy land and the Kesey field.

Why these two?

Well, that's personal, Vaughn.

Oh, well, he swiped those properties right from underneath my nose.

And it he wants money had enough, he just might sell for 25 cents on the dollar.

No, he'd never sell them to you. No matter how much he needed money.

No. Not if he knows I'm the buyer. But he won't.

Just like he won't know that I'm gonna take over his precious Gold Canyon 340.

And then it'll all be over.

And it'll all be mine.

And the Barnes family, Cliff and that little sister of his...

...will just be bad memories.

CHARLIE: I'll give him a cookie, Bobby. - Okay, honey.

Look, I know this hasn't been too terrific an afternoon for you.

Why don't I take Christopher back to the ranch, you relax...

...I'll come back, and we'll go out?

- I'm gonna be busy tonight. BOBBY: Busy?

- Hi, honey. CHARLIE: Here he is, Bobby.

BOBBY: Okay, I got him.

What, do you have a date with somebody or what?

No, I have to go over the books.

And even if I didn't, I still don't think we should go out tonight.

- All right. - Hey.

Why don't you call me tomorrow? Maybe we'll both feel better.

- Sure. Goodbye, honey. CHARLIE: Bye, Bobby.

Come on, buddy.

How come you didn't go out with Bobby?

I just couldn't.

Don't you love him?

More than anything.

I always have.

I should have married him a long time ago.

I don't know.

Maybe you just don't get second chances.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

I'll get it.

KENDERSON: I'm Dr. Kenderson. Mrs. Ewing's expecting me.

ANNIE: Come in, please.

PAMELA: Hello. - Hello.

- Thank you for coming. - You're welcome.

Can I get you a drink?

No, thank you.

Are you going to tell Mark?

I'm sorry. I still think he has the right to know.

There's something I wanna discuss with you first though.

All right.

Forgive me, I'm going to be very blunt.

Would you still wanna many Mark if he wasn't going to die?

Why do you want to know that?

Well, Mark has no family, you know that.

And he's one of the wealthiest men in the state.

Is it possible that you just want to inherit Graisco Industries?

[SCOFFS]

I can understand why you might think that...

...but I'm a very wealthy woman.

The stocks I hold in Wentworth Industries are worth millions of dollars.

When I divorced my husband, I didn't take anything.

And I don't think I have to tell you how wealthy the Ewings are.

No, you don't.

If it would help convince you not to tell Mark until after the wedding...

...have your attorney draw up an agreement...

...I would sign it, renouncing all claim to anything of Mark's.

That won't be necessary.

Please?

I'm sure that it Mark knows, he won't go through with the wedding.

And then he'll have to face this all alone.

I promise you that I'll do everything in my power to make him happy.

To lessen his pain.

I don't know.

Just until after the wedding?

I just don't know.

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

Yeah?

JACKIE [OVER INTERCOM]: Mr. Flowers is here.

Okay.

All right, bring him in here, Jackie.

CLIFF: Hello, Flowers. Sit down.

If you don't need me anymore, I'd like to go home. It is Saturday.

No. No, I need you. I want you to hang around.

You know, after all, I'm paying you double time.

Come to think of it, I'm paying everybody double time.

Including that whole crew down there on that rig of yours.

Well, it's a 24-hour-a-day job for them, you knew that.

I know. I know.

You didn't fly up here from the Gulf to bring me good news.

- You could've done that on the telephone. - Mr. Barnes...

...I'm on your side, remember?

Yeah. Okay, so, what's up?

I don't think we're drilling in the right location.

We're down a ways, and haven't any good signs.

Now, wait. You're the one that told me to start there.

That's right, to start. But now it's time to move the rig.

Well, you know how many times you drill live or six test wells before you hit.

You do all the drilling, and I'm running out of capital.

I have to hit, and I have to hit fast.

Well, it time is important, you can always hire another exploration rig or two.

Do you have any idea what kind of money that costs?

I do. But what about Westar? They had about five rigs going.

They hit with one of them, so that rig might come available.

- Westar hit? - Just this morning.

They're not too far from your tract, so we could get that rig there fast.

You say Westar hit?

Look, Mr. Barnes...

...the seismologicals and geologicals are great on your tract.

We'll hit. I know we will. It's only a question of time.

Yeah, but I'm running out of time.

Well, it's either time or money.

Well, sir, it's your choice.

Well, you go ahead and you call in that other exploration rig, and I'll get the money.

- You're doing the right thing, Mr. Barnes. - Well, I hope so.

I better be.

- Jackie? JACKIE: Yes, Cliff.

Get me Vaughn Leland.

And then you can go home.

[SCOFFS]

Westar hit, I don't.

Oh, good evening, Sue Ellen.

Good evening. My, you look lovely.

Oh, thanks.

Clayton's taking Ellie and me to dinner. Am I disturbing you?

Oh, no. I'm just actually going over the responses to the invitations to your party.

English noblewoman meets Dallas society.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

I hope I haven't put you to too much trouble.

Oh, no, not at all.

I feel very close to the Fallow family.

In fact, your brother is the nicest man I have ever met.

Clayton does charm the ladies, and everybody else.

How long have you known him?

Well, it seems a lot longer, but actually, it's only been three years.

I lived at the Southern Cross for a while, did you know that?

No. How'd it happen?

Well, it was a period in my life that I was... Well, I was very unhappy.

J.R. and I divorced, Dusty and I were in love.

I thought we might even many.

- But you didn't. - No.

We really didn't have a chance.

We needed things that we couldn't get from each other.

And so you and J.R. remarried.

Yes.

But in between, Clayton saw me over some very rough spots.

He was almost the father I never had.

Clayton can be the most comforting man in the world.

But now you're back in Southfork, and you're happy with J.R.

I can understand you coming back to him.

Oh?

Well, of course, I don't know J.R. very well...

...but he has an aura of power about him, of authority.

And a bit of recklessness in his eyes.

I've always found that very attractive in a man.

A little air of danger is a very exciting quality.

J.R.: Well, thank you.

May I return the compliment?

I find you a most exciting lady.

Do you often lurk in doorways listening to conversations?

How else would I know what's going on here?

Good evening, darling.

You're looking lovely as always. Where is everybody?

SUE ELLEN: Ellie is upstairs dressing...

...Bobby is putting Christopher to bed, and John Ross is in the kitchen eating.

Peter's left already?

Oh, that's too bad, I wanted to see him.

Well, looks like Southfork has just turned into a house of domestic bliss.

- Only one thing could make it better. - What might that be?

When Clayton joins us full time.

To the wedding.

I'll drink to that.

I'm starving. There's something about buying rings that gives me an appetite.

- Rings? I thought this was your first. - It is.

It is, but now I know it makes me hungry, that's all.

Good evening. Miss Wentworth and her friend are at your table.

Oh, good. And Dora Mae, bring the finest champagne.

It's already there.

- Well, pop the cork and keep it coming. - Yes, sir, right this way.

GRAISON: Hey, Jerry. KATHERINE: Well. hi.

KENDERSON: What do you say?

GRAISON: How you doing? KENDERSON: Wonderful.

Good to see you, Mark.

GRAISON: Great.

- Hello, Miss Ewing. - Hello.

Hey, wait, wait, isn't this a little formal? How about Pam and Jerry? Huh?

And I guess you and Katherine are already on a first-name basis.

Yes, we are.

Isn't anyone gonna tell us how happy we look?

You two look very happy.

GRAISON: Thank you. Thank you. And little wonder...

...because the most beautiful, charming woman in the world...

...is gonna become my wife.

That's why I couldn't see you today, Jerry. We were out shopping.

We certainly were.

Oh, Pam, that's beautiful.

Jerry, I have never been so happy in my whole life.

Pam's everything I've ever wanted.

KENDERSON: I guess she is.

So, what were you in such a great hurry to talk to me about?

Well, come on now, out with it.

Uh, why don't we have a toast first?

Jerry, why don't you make it?

To the marriage of Pam and Mark.

Well, I'll drink to that.

God bless you both.

- Thank you. GRAISON: Well, now tell me.

KENDERSON: Well, I was a little worried about your knee.

GRAISON: My knee? You mean all this over a knee?

- Good morning, Mr. Ewing. - Is that for Sue Ellen?

It's for Lady Mumford.

Oh. Well, I'll take that.

- Yes, sir. - Thank you.

JESSICA: Come in, Teresa.

Well, I'm afraid there's been a change in plans.

I hope you don't mind.

Not at all.

Here you are, madam.

I'm quite flattered to know that you find me attractive.

Especially since I find you such a very becoming woman.

It just might be a lot of fun having you at this wedding.

JESSICA: I was thinking the same thing.

You know, I'm beginning to sense we feel the same way about many things.

Well, I hope so. After all, we're practically family.

Your brother, my mama.

The loving couple.

Somehow, I get the idea that you might not think that this wedding is made in heaven.

Really? What a strange idea. I'm sure I feel about it the same as you do.

Well, I'm glad to hear that.

Wouldn't it be awful if something happened and it didn't come off?

Well, what a terrible thing to say.

Saying terrible things is part of my charm, I suppose.

But on the other hand, what could possibly go wrong?

Well, I don't know.

What could?

Almost anything.
