All language subtitles for S08E19 - Sins Of The Father

That's me right up there
on that platform there!

I wonder if we could talk
about things that happened.

What if someone else
set this whole thing up...

...and by Naming JR.
got everything he wanted?

- I don't know what you're talking about.
- Try your brother.

I will rule for the plaintiff. Grant
a temporary injunction against Ewing Oil.

Cliff is a wonderful lover.

[SUE ELLEN GRUNTS]

I'm not gonna let you do this to me.

I'm not going to do it to you.
I'm gonna do it to Cliff.

J.R.: Well, it's about time.
I told you this was important.

J.R., I was in the midst of shaving
when you called.

I gave myself a very severe cut.

I'm not interested in your medical report.
I want a legal opinion. Take a look at that.

The point is, Harv, can he do it?

Can he get an injunction
to freeze the assets of this company?

- I'm not sure.
- Well, that's a wonderful answer.

That's why we pay you
that massive retainer.

J.R., your sarcasm's
not gonna solve this problem.

J.R., just relax a minute, please.
Harv, what we need is your opinion.

Can he do it or not?

Well, it's not an easy thing,
but it might be possible.

- You're not serious?
- Indeed, I am.

Obviously, this Judge Harding considers
the document Jamie has...

...sufficient cause to call for a hearing.

Do you know what's gonna happen
if we're not free to wheel and deal?

- We're gonna go out of business.
BOBBY: Not exactly.

But it does make a bank take
a very serious look at our outstanding loans.

And it hurts our ability
to generate new business, Harv.

Yes, it's gonna make things
difficult for you.

Which is just what was intended,
I'm sure.

An injunction of this nature
would prevent you from moving...

...or disposing of any of the assets
of Ewing Oil.

Why would we wanna dispose of
any of our assets?

Barnes and that traitor he's working with
doesn't stand one chance...

-...of getting a hold of my company.
- Our company.

But we've gotta face it,
there is a judge out there...

...who seems to think they have
a pretty good case against us.

We don't have one thing
to disprove them.

I better get some of my staff looking
into precedential cases of this nature...

...to prepare our defense
for tomorrow's hearing.

Whatever you have to do, do it.

From a legal standpoint, of course.

[SIGHS]

Well, what did you think
I was talking about? Bribing the judge?

I hope not.

- Well, I better get to work.
- Listen, Harv, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to jump on you like that.
I know it's not your fault.

That's a“ fight. JR.

Nobody understands better than I do
how much Ewing Oil means to you...

...and why. Bye, Bobby.
- Goodbye. Haw.

Thank you.

We're in trouble, Bobby.
I can feel it in my bones.

It was bad enough when we were
just fighting Barnes and Jamie...

...but now Pamela's thrown in
with them too.

She thought she had good reason.

Oh, would you stop defending her?
She's not your wife anymore.

I didn't send her gallivanting down
to the Caribbean looking for Mark Graison.

- I don't wanna talk about Pam now.
- Neither do I.

But you better face the fact
that she is with Barnes 100 percent.

If she ever thought of herself as a Ewing,
that day is long gone.

No, sir.
that little lady is all Barnes now.

Please have the funds transferred
to a discretionary account...

...as I anticipate large legal fees and I would
like the money available when I need it.

Thank you in advance.
Pamela Barnes Ewing.

Did you get that?

I'll have it typed up
for your signature right away.

- Hey, what's all that about?
- Huh. I told you I'm on your side, Cliff.

I'm having funds available for research,
legal fees, whatever you and Jamie need.

- Terrific. Couldn't come at a better time.
- Why's that?

Well, because they served the legal papers
for the injunction this morning.

[LAUGHING]

Oh, I'd like to be over at Ewing Oil
and see what's going on right about now.

You don't think the judge's gonna
let you tie up all of Ewing Oil...

-...until the ownership trial, do you?
- I don't know. I hope so.

Because if I know the Ewings,
if things start looking bad...

...they're gonna dump assets
into holding companies...

...umbrella corporations, anything.

Because they'd rather bankrupt
that company than let me get my fair share.

Well, that's the kind of thing
that J.R. would do, not Bobby.

- Really?
- Yes, really.

Bobby wouldn't do the illegal, underhanded
kind of things that J.R. would.

Pam, let me tell you something.
A Ewing is a Ewing is a Ewing.

And if push comes to shove,
if J.R. 01 Bobby thinks...

...they're gonna lose control
of their precious company...

...they'll do anything legal or illegal.

And you know what, I think
deep down in your heart, you know that.

[INTERCOM BUZZING]

- Yes, Jackie.
- There's a call for you on line one.

Who is it?

- Jackie?
4 think you ought to take the ca”.

Hello?

Hi.

Um.

Fine. I'll meet you there.

All right, goodbye.

- Who was that?
- It was Bobby.

He wants to meet me for a drink.
He said he'd something to tell me.

Oh, I bet he does. I'm telling you,
I'm telling you, they are frightened.

I guarantee you, he is gonna get together
with you and try to convince you...

...that you shouldn't throw in
with Jamie and me.

You know, we do have other things
to talk about.

Oh, sure, I understand that.

Now, isn't it a bit coincidental
that he should call you on the day...

...that the legal papers arrive to wanna get
together for a cozy drink, huh?

Do you think he's gonna sit around and talk
about what school Christopher's going to?

Well, if you're so worried,
why don't you come along?

Well, I would love to,
but I can't for two reasons.

Firstly, I happen to know
what Bobby's temper is like...

...and I don't wanna be
anywhere around him today.

And secondly, I'm gonna fly down
to the Gulf and check on 340...

...because I just happen to love walking
around that offshore oil platform.

[CHUCKLES]

- What about the hearing?
- I'll be back in the morning.

[SIGHS]

- Don't you let him talk you into anything.
- I won't.

I'll see you in the morning.

I'll get this in the mail right away.

Oh, thank you, Jackie.

I'm sorry.

I didn't know whether or not you wanted
Cliff to know that Bobby was calling.

Oh, that's all right.

As a matter of fact, Jackie.
would you hold down the fun for me?

Bobby's asked me to meet him for a drink,
so I think I'll go home and change first.

Might as well look my best.

- I brought you some hot coffee.
- Pretty good to me.

Come along ways to drive out here
just to bring me something hot to drink.

Well, I didn't wanna just sit home
all day.

And with everything that's going on,
I did not want to see Miss Ellie.

I can understand that.

Besides, she's got Clayton to talk to
if she needs anybody to talk to.

You know, in my heart, I did not believe
that this was gonna come to a court battle.

Do you know how much pressure
it's gonna put on this family?

Yep. I never did like Cliff Barnes
for a bunch of reasons.

Ray, Cliff and I were together
long before you and I were married.

I know that.

It bothers me every time I see that jerk.

Look at all the trouble he's fixing
to cause everybody now.

You haven't changed your mind,
have you?

- About what?
- You know about what.

About thinking the whole family would be
better off it Ewing Oil didn't even exist.

No, I still think that might be true
under different conditions.

But now, what Cliff and Jamie
are trying to do, it's just like saying...

...that Jock stole the company
from Jason and Digger.

- So?
- So whatever the right or wrong of it is...

...Jock was my daddy.

And when it comes right down to it, I'm not
gonna let Cliff Barnes, Jamie Ewing...

...or anybody else
drag his name in the mud.

Ray, I don't think
that you should take sides in this.

It doesn't mean anything to you.

Do you know you have never been
interested in Ewing Oil?

True enough.

I just know that no matter
what that paper says...

...Jock would never have stolen
that company from them.

This is Bobby and J.R.'s fight, not yours.

There are times in the past
that might have been true.

Lord knows that most of my life,
I never thought of myself as a Ewing.

But now I know I am.

I don't know how much I can help them,
but I'm gonna let them know I want in.

- Thanks for the coffee.
- You're welcome.

- See you tonight.
- Okay.

- Hi.
- Oh. Oh, thanks for meeting me.

- Sure, why wouldn't I?
- Well, I can think of a few good reasons.

- Mrs. Ewing?
- Oh, uh.

- White wine, please.
- Yes, ma'am.

- Bobby, are you upset about something?
- Why should I be upset?

Because you decided to join your brother
in a stupid vendetta against the Ewings?

I told you why that happened.
If you wanna blame somebody, blame J.R.

- Don't take it out on me.
- Well, what if J.R. didn't do it?

What did J.R. have to gain
by sending you off...

...on that wild chase of yours
to the Caribbean?

Who knows what J.R. ever thinks
he has to gain?

Besides, I told you the pilot told me himself
that J.R. put him up to it.

Well, what if Kane was lying?

What if someone else
set this whole thing up...

...and by Naming JR.
got everything he wanted?

I don't know what
or who you're talking about.

- Try your brother.
- Cliff? Oh, don't be ridiculous.

Cliff would never do something
like that to me.

What wouldn't Cliff do to get Ewing Oil?

And look how it all turned out,
he's got you on his side against me.

I'm not against you. I'm for Cliff.

Uh. I don't believe a word
that you're saying.

Well, I didn't believe it either.

Until J.R. played a tape of a conversation
between him and Cliff.

Bobby, this is getting crazier and crazier.

Isn't it though?
But I heard that tape in J.R.'s office.

Cliff called J.R. to set up a meeting
just so they could plot to keep us apart.

Well, that sounds like J.R.,
taping a telephone conversation.

Yes, but in this case, I'm glad he did.

Pam, I'm not saying that J.R. is a saint
or that he's not capable...

...of doing everything
that you thought and more.

On (he mhev hand, CH“ Nays
the same games that JR. does...

...and this time,
Cliff is the one with his hands dirty.

Bobby, it doesn't matter what you say.

I know that Cliff loves me and that he
would never intentionally hurt me.

Can you say the same thing
about your brother?

Is Mrs. Ewing coming back?

No, Cassie, I don't think she is.

J.R.:
Mandy?

Oh, I'm sorry. Can I help you with that?

What are you doing here?

Oh, well, I was just waiting.
I wanted to talk to you.

We don't have a lot to talk about.

All right, I'll do the talking, you listen.

Let's go inside. It's getting kind of cool.

I don't think so.

Mandy, I'd like to see you.
I'd like to be with you.

Why? You think
I'll tell you things about Cliff?

[SIGHS]

I don't give a damn about Barnes.

I disliked him before, but never as much
as I have knowing that he was your lover.

- That was my choice.
- Yeah, that makes it worse.

But I'll learn to live with that.

Why do you wanna see me so much?

Well...

You must know how you affect me.
And I don't think it's totally one-sided.

I think you feel attracted to me
in some way.

If I did, I wouldn't give in to it.

Anyway, it's always been
just one man at a time for me.

I thought it was over
between you and Barnes.

I don't know.

I've moved back to my apartment,
but I'm not so sure I'm over him.

Can I call you?

Call me, but not for a few days.

Mandy, a very few days, please.

FERGUSON: I believe that I have--
SMITHFIELD: I don't understand the reason.

- You'll have an ample--
- Gentlemen.

Stop the bickering
and get on with your presentations.

Perhaps if Mr. Smithfield would wait
his tum, Your Honor.

- Just get on with it, Mr. Ferguson.
- Yes, Your Honor.

You've already examined the document
owned by Jason Ewing...

...giving him and Digger Barnes,
or their heirs, one-third ownership...

...per partner in Ewing Oil.

And you have seen the documents which
verified the signatures on that agreement.

What has all this to do with the injunction
you're seeking, Mr. Ferguson?

Uh.

Sir, we all know how crowded the dockets
of the court are.

It may well be months before the suit
on ownership of Ewing Oil could be heard.

Yes, that's entirely possible.

Ewing Oil is a vast empire
with many holdings.

A great many of these are choice properties
which could be sold or liquidated...

...at a fraction of their original value.

That doesn't sound
like sound business practice, Mr. Ferguson.

It isn't.

But the enmity between the Ewings
and the Barnes family...

...go back along way, Your Honor.

Now, faced with the inevitability
of the loss of two-thirds of their company...

...it is conceivable that they would choose
to liquidate the assets of...

...or even bankrupt Ewing Oil rather than
turn it over to their lifelong enemy.

Therefore, I ask that the injunction
be granted in order to preserve...

...Mr. Barnes' and Miss Jamie Ewing's
rightful share of the wealth of Ewing Oil.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Mr. Smithfield.

Your Honor, without addressing myself
to the validity of the ownership document...

...I would like to say that I am outraged
at Mr. Ferguson's suggestion...

...that the Ewing family, long respected
members of the Dallas oil community...

...would resort to illegal deception
in order to bankrupt its own company.

I appreciate your emotion, Mr. Smithfield.
Beyond that, do you have an argument?

Uh. Yes, Your Honor.

By freezing the Ewing Oil assets,
Mr. Barnes is doing the very thing...

...he accuses the Ewings of,
causing severe financial damage.

Now, a company as vital as Ewing Oil
must be able to deal on day-to-day basis...

...with all the crucial events
that occur in the oil business.

Without proper funding or the ability
to deal with banks and members...

...of the 0” community too,
the company would find itself...

...in serious financial trouble
before the case ever comes to court.

Therefore, Your Honor, I request
most urgently that the injunction be denied.

Thank you, Your Honor.

This is not an easy decision to make.
It will require a great deal of thought.

However, until I reach a determination,
I will rule for the plaintiff.

Grant a temporary injunction
against Ewing Oil.

You will be notified
when I reach final decision.

[GAVEL STAMPING]

BAILIFF:
All rise.

I don't believe it.

Barnes got his injunction.

- Good morning. How did the hearing go?
- Terrific. The judge ruled in our favor.

I don't know, Cliff.
I was thinking, it's just temporary.

Oh, no, no, no.

- Is Pam here?
- No, wasn't she at the hearing?

Yeah, but she took off
as soon as it was over.

Let me know when she comes in.
Come on, Jamie.

- You want a drink?
- No, no, thanks.

You know, I've been thinking.

The longer it takes that judge to come
to a final decision, the better off we are.

Why?

Well, because if he didn't think we had
a good reason to get...

...a permanent injunction,
he would have ruled against us right away.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

- Cliff, I wanna talk to you.
- Hi, Pam. Where did you get off to?

- Hi, Pam.
- Jamie.

You knew that I was meeting
with Bobby yesterday.

Yeah, I did. How did that go?

I suppose he tried to convince you
to pull away from Jamie and me.

- Well, it he's right, I might do just that.
- He's right about what?

He told me you sent Gerald Kane to me
with those lies about Mark...

...being in the Caribbean.

That you setup the whole thing.

Well, that's crazy.
I mean, you didn't believe that.

Did you call J.R. and setup a meeting
to talk about keeping me and Bobby apart?

Tell the truth, Cliff.

Yeah, I called J.R.
How did you know about that?

J.R. taped the conversation.
He played it for Bobby.

Look, okay, now, I admit
that I called J.R. and we had a meeting...

...and we talked
about keeping you and Bobby apart.

But nothing came of that.

The only reason I did that
is because I love you.

I sincerely think that you and Bobby
are poison for each other.

Then you sent me to the Caribbean
to get me away?

You sent Gerald Kane to tell me
that it was J.R. so that I'd be so angry...

...that I'd back you against Bobby?

Look, I don't know anything about that.
I would never do anything to hurt you.

I never met this Gerald Kane.

Uh, I think I'll leave you two alone.

I'm telling you the truth.
You better believe me.

[TELEPHONE BUZZING]

- Yeah?
KENDALL: Mr. Hardesty is here.

Oh, good. Send him in, would you?

Hey, Carl, good to see you.
Sit down, sit down.

Thank you, J.R.
Haven't seen you for a while.

No, no, regrettably.

However, I may have need
of your services real soon.

Always a pleasure
to do business with you, J.R.

This wouldn't have anything to do
with those holding corporations I setup...

...for you some time back, would it?

Well, what makes you ask that?

It's pretty hard not to hear the rumors
of what Cliff Barnes is trying to do to you.

[CHUCKLES]

I guess there's no sense
in beating around the bush with you.

Might as well get down to business.

Are those corporations you set up for me
still legal entities?

Yes. They've been dormant
for a couple of years, but they're still legal.

And nobody can trace them
back to me or Ewing Oil?

Nobody ever has.
Believe me, a lot of people tried.

Yeah. Yeah, I remember.

All right,
I may be infusing those corporations...

...with a great deal of money
in the near future to make some purchases.

You thinking of selling off
some of Ewing Oil?

Whatever I'm thinking, when I move,
I wanna move fast...

...so I want you to make sure
everything's in place for me.

- I'll get right on it.
- Yeah.

You know, I just might be in a position
to buy some of what you want to sell.

Oh, you can forget that.

Nothing that Ewing owns will ever be held
by anybody but a Ewing.

- You understand?
- Yes, I think I do.

You just do what I want
and I'll take care of you.

I always have, haven't I?

See you soon.

There's never gonna be any name
on this company but Ewing.

What's going on here, huh?
What are you doing?

Just picking up the last of my things.

Oh, come on, don't be like that.
We have a good thing going, don't ruin it.

I thought we had something going,
but I sure was wrong.

No, you weren't. Look, this fight
for Ewing Oil is only temporary.

When I win,
we can go back to the way we were.

I don't know how we were,
but I don't think I wanna find out.

Please, don't go. I need you.

Do you? Really?

I need you more than ever now.

- You mean that?
- Hey, I'm in the fight of my life.

If ever I needed anybody
to keep tabs on J.R., it's now.

- What?
- I mean you could help me cinch this thing.

The timing's perfect.

You are unbelievable.
You're even worse than I thought.

How was I so stupid
not to have realized that before?

Oh, you are a selfish, insensitive,
cheap, no-class jerk.

I'll tell you something.
Next to you, J.R. Ewing is quite a catch.

[MOUTHS]
What?

Hey, Bobby.
Can you drop into my office for a minute?

Uh. Okay, good.

What's up?

Well, I just got a call
from our private investigator.

- They've located Alf Brindle.
- Who?

He's that roughneck in the picture
at the discovery well.

Oh, great, where is he?

He's in Galveston working as a watchman
in one of the oil companies.

Is he willing to talk to us?
If he is, we better fly down there.

Yeah, I was thinking of that. Maybe he can
shed light on that missing week.

And why Daddy cut Digger Barnes
and Jason in on our company.

[INTERCOM BUZZING]

- Yeah?
KENDALL: Mr. Smithfield is here.

- Says it's important.
- Good, good, bring him in.

- Wonder if he's heard something.
- I don't know. I hope so.

- Hey, Harv.
- Evening, boys, I have good news.

- You heard from the court?
- Yes.

The judge had me and Ferguson
into his chambers.

He's decided to rule in our favor.

Cliff Barnes does not get his injunction.

The temporary freeze on Ewing Oil
has been lifted.

- That's wonderful.
- Ha, ha, ha, how about that?

I'm gonna pour you a drink in celebration.
Now, we're free to wheel and deal again.

Uh, J.R., a word of caution.
This is a provisional decision.

If the judge hears of any improprieties,
he might just reverse himself...

...and freeze the company's assets again.

Well, Harv, that's a terrible thing to say.
Do you really think I'd do anything illegal?

Say, where did Mama and Clayton get to
so early this morning anyhow?

I have no idea.

Clayton had trouble with his refineries
and Mama flew to Texas City with him.

They should be back tonight.

We should be leaving
for school, John Ross.

- I'm ready.
- I'm going into Dallas.

Um. Charlie, would you like me
to drop you off?

- Sure, if you don't mind.
- Thanks, Sue Ellen.

I didn't know you were going
into town today. Why's that?

- Get your books and I'll see you in the car.
- Okay.

I guess if we're gonna see Alt Brindle,
we'd better get going too.

I made arrangements
with the company that Brindle works for...

-...to pick us up at the Galveston airport.
- Good.

We'll be back this afternoon, hon.

Good morning.
Sony to barge in this way, J.R.

But Sue Ellen said you were all in here.

- Hi, Scotty, what's up?
- I'd like to talk to you on Jenna.

I've got the coroner's report.

- Uh. I was on my way to Galveston.
- Well, I think it's important.

Why don't you stay, Bob?

J.R. and I can find out
whatever Brindle has to say.

Yeah, it'll be all right.
We'll see you this evening.

Bye, Bobby. Bye, Mama, Mr. Demarest.

- How are you, Charlie?
- Fine, thanks. Bye.

She doesn't look worse
for what happened.

- No, here. Sit down, Scotty. Sit down.
- Thank you.

All right, Scotty. What have you got?

Well, cause of death
was a bullet wound...

...from the gun that Jenna had
which belonged to Naldo.

Do you have anything
we don't already know?

According to the autopsy,
Naldo was clean.

There wasn't so much as a trace
of any illegal substance in his body.

And far as they can tell,
he never smoked cigarettes or otherwise.

That doesn't mean he couldn't have been
involved in drug trafficking or something.

No.

Now, Jenna, did he.
at any time that you were with him...

...call anyone but this Veronica
on the phone?

No, we were together the whole time.
He never let me out of his sight.

It's just one more thing that points
to all of this being a setup.

Somebody calls the police
and claim they heard a shot.

Yet people on both sides of that room
say they heard nothing.

How do the police explain that?

Well, they admit it's a little strange.

But they keep insisting
that Jenna was alone in that room...

...with the gun and Naldo was dead.

At the moment, they got a lot of evidence
and we don't have a whole lot of defense.

[SIGHS]

JACKIE:
Good morning, Barnes-Wentwonh.

No, I'm sorry.
Mr. Barnes is on the phone.

Yes, I'll give him your message.

- Good morning.
- Mrs. Ewing, good morning.

Uh. Jackie, do you wanna check
the original invoices on these?

[SIGHS]

What are you doing here, Sue Ellen?

- How are you, Cliff?
- Never better. You?

All right.

Will you please tell Pam that I'm here?

PAM [ON INTERCOM]: Yes, Jackie?
- Mrs. Ewing is hereto see you.

PM be right out.

Also when you were on the phone,
Mr. Hardiman called for you.

- Sue Ellen.
- Hello, Pam.

- I'd like to talk to you.
- All right.

Come into my office.

- Want some coffee?
- No, thank you.

Well, this certainly is a surprise.

I'm sure it is.

Especially alter the way
I've been treating you lately.

Well, you made your feelings very clear
that day at my house...

...when you accused CH“
01 trying to shoot JR.

Pam, that seems
like a very long time ago.

And I was so wrong.

I hurt so much that day.

You were the only one that I had left,
that I felt close to or that I could talk to.

Pam, I don't even think that an apology
can make up for what I said.

But I do want you to know
that I regret everything that happened.

And I wish that...

I wish that we could befriends again.

Has something happened
between you and JR?!?

Doesn't something always?

I know that things
couldn't be at a worse point...

...between the Barnes and the Ewings.

But I would like our friendship
to be apart from all that.

And I hope that can happen.

I hope so too.

Oh, despite everything I try...

...a little part of me always feels
that I belong at Southlork.

I know that that can never happen
now that I've thrown in with Cliff...

...but I hope
that we can befriends again.

- Maybe we could have dinner tonight.
- I'd like that.

- Robaire's, about 8?
- All right, I'll meet you there.

Sue Ellen.

I'm really glad that you came.

[VEHICLE'S HORN BLOWING]

Hey, Brindle. You got some visitors.

What'd you say?

- Howdy.
- Huh?

- Mr. Brindle, my name's J.R. Ewing, sir.
- Yeah.

And I'm Ray Krebbs.

Are you the same Alt Brindle
that worked with Jock Ewing...

...in East Texas about 50 years ago?

Jock Ewing.
Haven't heard that name in along time.

Oh. You recognize this, sir?

Where did you get this?

[LAUGHING]

That's me, that's me right up there
on that platform there. Look at that.

Oh, that's what we were hoping
you'd say.

- Jock Ewing was my daddy.
- You don't say.

Yeah, yeah.

I wonder if we could talk about some things
that happened back then.

Well, I don't see why not.
Uh, awful long time ago, though.

Don't know
how good my memory is anymore.

[CHUCKLES]

Well, maybe we could just take
a little walk and think back some.

Why not? Why not?

You know--

You know, things sure were a lot different
back in those days.

- Yeah?
- I was just a young kid then.

- Tough too.
- I bet you were.

[CHUCKLING]

Hi. Where is everybody?

Miss Ellie and Clayton flew down
to Texas City.

Bobby's at work, Sue Ellen's in town.

I guess you know
where Ray and J.R. are.

Sounds like a pretty full report.
Smells terrific.

I didn't know
you were interested in baking.

I learned from my father.
This is his famous split top wheat bread.

Most girls learn
from their mothers, I guess.

Mine couldn't cook a thing.
She never did teach me anything.

Maybe I should give you
my Aunt Minnie's cornbread recipe.

Everybody says it's the best in Texas.

Oh.

Damn it.

- What's wrong, Jenna?
- I'm so frightened.

I think I'm gonna go to prison.

- Bobby's not gonna let that happen.
- Bobby can't stop it.

[SOBBING]

He and Scotty Demarest
have been trying.

They haven't come up with anything
to help.

Everything points to me killing Naldo.

Jenna, you didn't kill Naldo.

You think that because you know me.

What's a jury gonna think?

God knows I hated him.

And there were times
I wished he were dead.

But that doesn't mean
that you killed him.

I remember so little.

Maybe he did try to rape me.

Maybe I did grab a gun and shoot him.
I don't know.

I just don't know anymore.

Okay.

Um.

What's gonna happen to Charlie
if I'm convicted?

God...

What if I really did kill him?

- Will Jenna be home in time for dinner?
- Yeah, I think so, Mama.

She and Charlie just went to the condo
to pick up some more of Charlie's things.

You get things straightened out
at the refinery, Clayton?

Sure, no problems.

- How about that?
- What?

Mama, you remember Lee Evans.

The pilot
who saw Daddy's helicopter go down?

Yes, he testified at the inquest.

That governmental investigation
in drug trafficking in South America.

- Lee Evans is being questioned about it.
- Mm.

- Well, good evening, everybody.
- Good evening, J.R.

You look pretty happy.
That conversation with Brindle pay off?

That man is a gold mine of information.

I don't think we're gonna have to worry
about Barnes 01 Jamie much longer.

Oh, yeah, what'd he say?

I'm just gonna go upstairs,
take a shower and change clothes.

- I'll tell you at dinner.
- Oh, J.R., we wanna know.

I'll be down soon. It's worth waiting for.

- Hmm.
- Oh.

He's like a little boy with a secret.

- At least you found out it was good news.
- Yeah, it's about time we had some.

[SIGHS]

[DOOR OPENS]

Sue Ellen?

You're back. Good. Have a nice dinner.

Where are you going
all dressed up like that?

- I'm having dinner out.
- Out?

Yes.

I'm bringing someone
back in my life that...

...I never should've lost in the first place.

When did this all come about?

I went to Barnes-Wentwonh
this morning--

- You went where?
- Uh. I just told you.

You went to see Cliff Barnes?

- Would that bother you?
- I don't believe it.

Are you really trying to rub my nose in it
by going out with that idiot?

Well, he must have something.

Look at all the women
that the two of you have shared.

Julie Grey, Afton, myself.

As a matter of fact,
Cliff is a wonderful lover.

[GASPS]

I'm not gonna let you do this to me.

I'm not going to do it to you.
I'm gonna do it to Cliff.

You never really wanted me anyway,
so why does it bother you what I do?

Because, honey, you belong to me
and not anybody else is gonna have you.

- I'll tell you that.
- It's a little late for that.

[CHUCKLING]

You're just trying to get even with me,
but you still want me, don't you, huh?

Don't! Get off me.
No! Get off of me!

Oh, darling, I know what you like.
I know what you like, Sue Ellen.

[GASPS]

I know what you like, darling.
and this is it.

[CHUCKLING]

Oh.

And I know what you like
and I'm sure that wasn't it.

EDDIE: Come on now, Lucy.
You gotta help here.

I feel silly.

Come on, Lucy.
This is the start of our building.

Gotta help dig the first shovel of dirt.
Put your foot.

- Okay.
- One, two, three.

[LAUGHING]

Okay.

- There we go.
- Yay.

- We're in business.
- Ha, ha.

- What do we do now?
- We celebrate.

[GIGGLING]

JACKIE [ON INTERCOM]: Pam, Dr. Miller is on line one.

Thank you, Jackie.

Pamela Ewing.

DR. MILLER: Mrs. Ewing, how are you?
- Oh, I'm just wonderful.

I hadn't heard from you and I wondered
whether you had followed up...

...on the information Dr. Matsuda
gave you about Mr. Graison.

You're really good
to the very end, aren't you?

- What do you mean?
- I mean, why don't you stop this Charade?

I know that this entire chase for Mark
is a phony.

That you and everybody else
were bought and paid for by J.R. Ewing.

That's a very insulting thing
for you to say.

Why? Because it's true.
I know that it's true.

Mrs. Ewing, if you really want
to find Mr. Graison...

...can you take a chance that what
Dr. Matsuda told you wasn't the truth?

Even if you don't believe me,
could you ever forgive yourself...

...if you didn't follow up on every lead?

And again, I assure you,
Dr. Matsuda is a very honorable man.

III were you, I'd follow up
on the information he gave you.

Well, maybe I will.

Maybe I'll think about it.

PAM: Thank you, Dr. Miller.
- Good luck, Mrs. Ewing.

- Than k you , good bye .
- Goodbye.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

Cliff, I've just had
the strangest phone call.

So did I. From Bobby.

The Ewings wanna meet us tonight.
It's about who really owns Ewing Oil.

[CHUCKLES]

[DOORBELL RINGS]

- Well, hello, Barnes.
- Mr. Brindle.

Ha. Well, nice cozy little place
you got here.

- Let's get at it, J.R.
- Oh. Well, sure. Fair enough.

I think we all know each other
with the exception of Mr. Brindle here.

- This is Jamie Ewing, Jason's daughter.
- Hi.

And this is Cliff Barnes, Digger's boy.

- I think you'll see a resemblance there.
- Yeah, a little. Ha, ha, ha.

And this is Pamela Barnes, she used
to be married to my brother Bobby.

I'm not sure
if you ever met her father or not.

Jamie, Mr. Brindle is one of the workers
in that picture at the discovery well.

The one with all our daddies
and Sam Culver.

- I know the picture, J.R.
- Yeah.

- You were there when they struck oil?
- I was.

Well, great. Maybe you can tell us
the truth about who really owns Ewing Oil.

Well, he's the only one left
from those days who can.

And I would like you in particular
to pay attention...

...to what he has to say
about who stole what from whom.

Uh. Well, why don't you just
tell your story, Alf?

Um. Yes, you suppose
I could have a small drink?

- Talking is awful thirsty work.
- Yes, you can.

- Especially when you ain't used to it.
- Yeah.

Thank you.

Ah.

Thanks.

You know, when Mr. Ewing here
come to see me yesterday...

...why he started me thinking about a lot
of things I thought I'd long forgotten.

- Like what, Mr. Brindle?
- Oh.

The Ewing boys and Digger. You know,
Digger was a real good friend of mine.

We did a lot of drinking
and playing together.

Ha, ha, ha. Yes, sir.

But he always knew how to smell out
where the oil was, that Digger did.

Would you care for a little bit more?

I wouldn't refuse that. Thank you.

To you.

And the fights them three had, I tell you.

You mean the Ewing brothers
against my daddy?

Now, that's the way most people would've
thought it was, but it just wasn't so.

Digger and Jason, they was the ones
doing most of the fighting.

Oh, yeah, many's the time Jock
had to come between them...

...because Jason really hated Digger,
you know.

He was all the time trying
to get Jock to get rid of him.

Said they didn't need him.

That he was just a drunk,
which he mostly was...

...but Jock wouldn't hear of it.

No, sir.

Tell him what you mean, Mr. Brindle.

Well, I mean Jock took care of Digger.

I mean, he kept him on the payroll
even when he was off doing his drinking.

And he kept Jason
from doing him any real damage too.

Begging your pardon, Miss Jamie,
and I hate to say it...

...but your daddy
was a black-hearted man.

He and Jock were all the time
going at each other over Digger...

...and I gotta tell you
that Mr. Jock Ewing was near a saint...

...putting up with the two of them.

What Mr. Brindle is saying
is my daddy protected Digger...

...and put up with his drinking.

Any money he had,
he was given by my daddy.

That's about it.

[SIGHS]

Digger was a weak man,
but Jock cared for him.

Why, you'd have thought
Digger was his brother, not Jason.

Well, Barnes, you still wanna try
and get your hands on Ewing Oil?

This old man's rambling
doesn't mean anything legally.

Really?

Well, what it he were to testify in court?

Then Dallas and the whole world
would know the truth...

...about the Barnes-Ewing relationship.

All that talk, all those years
about my daddy stealing from Digger...

...when the whole time,
he was trying to protect him.

Huh.

Well, you just go ahead
with your little lawsuit.

Maybe it's time the truth comes out.

But I'll tell you something.

If I had a daddy like Digger Barnes,
I'd do anything to keep the whole world...

...from knowing the truth about him.

You do what you want.

Well, I think that's all, gentlemen.

Uh. Another thing you reminded me of,
Mr. Ewing.

Like I said,
Digger and me was real good friends.

Well, along about that time when Digger
and Jock had their big falling-out...

...well, Digger give this to me.

I guess he was afraid of getting drunk
and losing it or something.

We parted paths and the only times
we saw each other after that...

...why, we'd start drinking
and clean forget that we even had it.

Heck, I didn't even know
Digger's boy was alive until yesterday.

So I dug this out.

Don't rightly even know what's in it,
but I guess it belongs to you now, son.

Look. Look at this.

This must be Digger's copy,
splitting Ewing Oil in thirds.

It proves that document's real.

Does that there say that Jock gave Digger
one-third of Ewing Oil?

It sure does.

Well, I'll be doggone.
I guess he really done it.

What do you mean?

Jock was always saying he was afraid
something might happen to him...

...and that Jason would take over.

So I guess he did that so that nobody
could cheat Digger out of his third.

- Would you swear to that in court?
-01 course, I would.

Thank you, Mr. Brindle.

J.R., I wanna thank you for finding him.

You've just made our case.

Now I'm sure that Jamie and I are going
to take Ewing Oil away from you.
