All language subtitles for Dallas S14E10

NARRATOR:
Last on Dallas:

- Hello.
- Oh, I'm sorry.

You don't even know who I am.

I'm LeeAnn De La Vega.

Damn that man.
He didn't even recognize me.

So what?

But it's not the same.

Not if he doesn't remember who I am.

I spoke to Mama while I was here.

-80 She's coming home?
- She and Clayton are gonna finish their trip.

It's not too late to call off the sale.

I haven't changed my mind.

Carter McKay oi Wesley?

He made me a very attractive offer.

- I'd like to toast the new Mrs. Ewing.
- Thank you.

And I'd also like to toast
the ex-Mrs. Ewing.

On her child-to-be.

[CROWD MURMURING]

I'm not letting my son he raised on a
pig farm by a little country hick like you.

You don't have a choice
because you're not the father.

James is.

[TIRES SCREECH]

Hey. What"?

You filthy piece of garbage.
I ought to do you in right now.

Hey, what are you getting so hot about?
I did you a favor.

Taking advantage of Cally like that?
That's a favor?

I thought you'd wanna know
you had another kid on the way.

One more you could screw up.

I think it a perverted revenge,
talking like that in front of those people.

Well, if I put a little damper on your party,
it was worth it.

If that's what you wanted,
why didn't you tell the story?

What more did you want?

How about you and Cam;
making it behind my back?

Huh?

Don't try to deny it. She told me
you were the father of that child.

She did?

At least she has the guts
to tell the truth.

Well, what are you getting
so righteous about?

You never had any trouble
cheating on her.

Why does it bother you so much
that she returned the favor?

I'm not blaming her.

You took advantage of that girl
to get back at me.

If you had stayed home and taken care
of business, it would have never happened.

The only thing you care about
is if someone finds out...

...I'm the one
that put the horns on you.

Well, nobody better find out.

Cally's gone now.

If you know what's good for you,
you won't say a word to anybody.

Trust me, Daddy.
It will be our little secret.

It's something you'll always remember.
That's good enough for me.

Besides, I'd rather have my mother think
the baby is yours.

It's not too late for her
to change her mind about you.

If that's what you're counting on,
forget it.

By the time I'm finished
talking to your mother...

...she's gonna be so sorry,
we just might elope.

You got no morals, you got no scruples.

You might be worthy of me yet.

[KNOCKING ON DOOR]

LIZ:
Cliff?

Cliff? Let me in.

Have you been listening to the radio?
Have you heard?

Have I heard what?

McKay has been arrested
for Johnny's murder.

McKay?

What, they've arrested McKay?

It's wonderful.
We're not under a cloud anymore.

Yeah, but why would they arrest McKay?

Well, McKay and Johnny
went back along way.

He obviously killed him
to keep him quiet.

But what's the difference why?
We're in the clear now.

Yeah, but they'll never convict him.

Would you lighten up?

Come on, you can have your career back.

If you don't do anything dumb,
you can still have me. Heh.

Okay.

Okay, you got a deal.

Ahh.

[CHATTERING]

So I told James what I thought of him
which wasn't a great deal.

And that he disappointed me terribly.

- What did he say to that?
- Very little.

He tried to justify it by saying
that he did it for me.

[SCOFFS]

And that's all he said?

More or less.

Well, this doesn't change anything
between you and me.

I'll know better when I know
what happened between you and Cally.

Well, needless to say, she was as shocked
at what James did as you and I were.

She never intended to tell me.

But now you know.

Yes. Yes.

She said she was leaving Dallas.

She even got a restraining order
to keep me away from her.

Do you intend to obey it?

Yes.

She convinced me
that the child would be much better off...

...never knowing me.

That and not wanting this whole thing
to hang over our marriage.

Well, it just made me decide
not to try to take the child away from her.

Are you positive
that you can live with that, J.R.?

Vanessa, believe me.

I'm never, ever gonna see that child.

McKAY [ON RECORDING]: Get out of my office, Dancer.

Or Danzig or whatever your name
happens to be this week.

JOHNNY:
Not bad.

I haven't even made my first move,
you're already sweating.

McKAY:
1 said get out.

JOHNNY“.
1 will for now.

First thing that gets changed
is this office.

I thought you had better taste, Mac.

McKAY: You make one move
to take over my company...

...you're a dead man.

Obviously, you didn't let him enjoy it.

McKAY:
So I threatened him.

So what? That's not proof.

It's not even admissible in court.

Uh, that's not strictly true.

You got a good lawyer, McKay.

The fact is this isn't a wire tap.

We didn't place the bug.

This tape was sent to us
by a concerned citizen.

I think we can use it and so does the DA.

Concerned citizen, hell.

I know who sent that tape
and I know why.

Why don't you tell me who and why?

That has nothing to do with the charges
against my client.

Maybe yes, maybe no.
You're right, this isn't proof.

But it's a hell of a motive.

And along with everything else...

...I think we got
a pretty good case against you.

Well, fortunately, that decision
is in the hands of the district attorney.

He may see your, uh, evidence
in a different light.

I don't think so.

I don't know what your client told you
but I'll bet it's not a lot.

Well, he told me
that he was mistakenly identified...

...as to being in that hotel that night.

As you know, Mr. McKay was confirmed
to have been elsewhere...

...at the time of the shooting.

Hm. That's the funny thing about murder.
You get a lot of contradictory evidence.

Like for example, Mrs. McKay saying
he was home with her.

What's contradictory about that?

She came to see me last night.
She told me you forced her to lie.

And we have her deposition saying
you weren't home all night.

That little where's trying to crucify me.

I was home. She'll change her story again,
tell you the truth.

Maybe she will.

But I think a jury's gonna have
a real hard time believing anything she says.

Especially what's true and what isn't.

A wife can't testify against her husband.

She can't be made to,
but she sure can of her own free will.

The way she was acting...

...you might not be married
by the time this goes to trial.

This is still all just circumstantial.

Mr. Bussey,
you don't have any hard evidence.

I was wondering
when you would get around to that.

The fact is
we got some real hard evidence.

Mr. McKay's fingerprints on a glass
in Danzig's hotel room.

So I went to see him.
It wasn't the night of the shooting.

We checked out that possibility
but unfortunately for you...

...the hotel tells us they change every glass
in every room, every day.

Mr. McKay.

Why don't you just confess
and save the state...

...a whole lot of trouble,
time and money?

Because I didn't kill him, damn it.

And I'm never going to say I did.

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

[CHATTERING]

[SMOOTH JAZZ MUSIC
PLAYS OVER SPEAKERS]

J.R.:
Well, what are you doing here?

I was about to order lunch.

Well, I mean... Well, this is my table.

LEEANN:
Oh.

Isn't it funny how easy it is
to become attached to things?

I was told this was reserved for Ewing Oil,
so naturally, I sat here.

But please, join me.

And feel free to use the table
anytime I'm not here.

Please, sit down.

- Well, pretty generous of you.
- I'm delighted you came by.

Gives me a chance
to thank you for last night.

Oh?

Can I bring you something?

- Uh, a lime and soda, please.
- I'll have my usual.

Be right back.

Well, now, where were we?

Oh, yes, I was telling you
how much I enjoyed last night.

Dallas is a great deal different
than Caracas.

Much more amusing.

And what did you find so amusing
about last night?

Just trying to tell the players
without a score card for one thing.

Oh, well, I...

Why would you care?

Heh. Because it's such a tangled web.

I wonder if I have it straight.

Uh, now, let's see.

The young man you sent home
before the fireworks...

...is your son by your first wife,
is that correct?

Yes, that's right.

And, uh, the little blond girl, your ex-wife,
is carrying your child.

And the handsome young man
she was with...

...is your son by the woman
you just became engaged to.

Well, it's really not so confusing
as it seems.

Well, I suppose it gets more clear
once you say it out loud.

Yeah, the more, the merrier.

A man can't have too many children.

I suppose that depends upon the man.

Or the woman.

Do you have any children?

No.

No, where you have children
popping out of the woodwork...

...I've never had a child.

Would you care to order now?

Oh, my goodness, I certainly would.
All this talk has me famished.

Uh, won't you please join me?
It's my treat.

Well, I suppose I have to eat somewhere.

Would you bring another menu, please?

Mm. I don't need a menu.

- I know. You're going to have the usual.
J.R.: Heh.

Bring me whatever he's having.

Better be careful. You may not like it.

I like your table.

I'm sure I'll like your lunch.

Hey, hey, come on.
Hey, this is making me nervous.

What are you doing, huh?
What are you doing?

You'll like it, trust me.

Hit it, boys.

[PLAYING COUNTRY MUSIC]

Ha, ha. Hey, what is this all about?

Trying to rectify a mistake.

See, when you did this for me,
you thought that I was still a New Yorker.

Well, I'm not.
I am a dyed-in-wool Texan and proud of it.

So if you still have the ring
and the desire...

...and if you would care
to ask me again...

...I'll give you the world's fastest
three-letter answer.

Hold it, guys.

That's it, boys, that's it. Appreciate it.

You're very good, but right now,
I need you to hit the road, huh?

Listen, can you"? Here's the money.

Can you come back tomorrow
and get that, uh...?

Get that cart out of here?

- I just need a little privacy. Thank you.
LIZ: Ha-ha-ha.

[CLIFF SIGHS]

I don't have the ring with me.

But I have the desire.

Elizabeth Adams,
would you do me the honor of marrying me?

Cliff Barnes, nothing would give me
more pleasure than to say "yes."

You really mean that?

Yes, I really do.

So why don't you hush up
and kiss the bride-to-be?

Actually, a meal like that
is good for the soul once in a while. Ha, ha.

Although I must admit,
those chilies were a trifle hot.

[SIGN CLATTERS]

You put that sign back where you got it.
She doesn't own this company yet.

Oh, didn't I mention it at lunch?

I signed the papers this morning.

Ewing Oil no longer exists.

LEEANN: I'm sorry
this came as such a surprise to you.

But as you know,
the stipulation for buying the company...

...was losing the Ewing Oil name.

It's happened before.

One of these days,
there'll be a Ewing Oil again.

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

LEEANN:
Possibly.

But I'm afraid it will never be the same.

Now, I know you're concerned
about the ladies who have worked for you.

But I've talked to them all...

...and they've agreed to continue on
and work for me.

They obviously know more
about the company than I do.

That's very gracious of you.

Well, it's only fair.

Do you have a few minutes to talk?
In my office?

I suppose so. I seem to be out of a job.

I got nothing else to do.

This way.

I know the way.

I had Miss Lovegren pack your things.
You can move them out any time now.

- Would you care for anything?
- No, thank you.

I'm kind of surprised
you're keeping the furniture.

Oh, ha, ha,
it's only temporary until mine arrive.

I hope it doesn't upset you too much.
Uh...

-...my having taken your office.
- No.

No, it's your company.
You can do anything you want to it.

What about you?

According to the Ewing books,
you own most of the assets.

You'll have money
to buy another company all on your own.

I'm not sure
I'm gonna do anything like that.

Then you don't really have any plans yet.
That's good.

Oh, why?

Because I may have something
that will interest you.

Oh, well, I doubt it.

Unless you're willing
to sell the company back to me.

[LAUGHS]

I didn't buy Ewing Oil
just to turn it over for a quick profit.

Then what?

Perhaps join forces with me.

Ewing Oil, while important to me...

...is not nearly the size
of my Venezuelan company.

And I don't want it consuming
too much of my time.

And anyway,
I may be returning home again soon.

Well, lady, I'm not a hired hand.

Of course not.

I just want you to consider the possibility
of working with me.

Helping me run things.

And of course, when I do leave,
you'll be in almost complete control.

Well, I can never do this
on a salary basis.

That was never my intention.

If things work well between us,
I would consider giving a minor ownership.

Say, 10 percent.

You'll put that on paper?

I already have.

[CHUCKLING]

You're really sure of yourself, aren't you?

[CHUCKLES]

Well, I think I know
what this company means to you.

Yeah, I think you do.

I suppose I'll be taking Bobby's office.

I think it would make him feel better...

...knowing you were in there
instead of some stranger.

When's this all start?

Tomorrow would be fine.
I'll have your things moved.

I would've thought
you'd already done that.

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

Well, I wasn't quite that sure.

Well, all right.

All right.

I'll see you tomorrow morning.

Boss.

Cliff, I can wait until tomorrow
to get the ring.

Yes, I'm very happy.

I love you.

I'll see you in the morning.

Oh, and never mind
about the hot-dog bun.

Good night.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Yes?

BUSSEY:
Miss Adams, this is Detective Bussey.

May I come in?

Why?

I just wanna talk with you for a minute.

What is there to talk about?
You already have Johnny's killer.

May I come in?

- All right.
- That's kind of what I wanted to talk about.

See, I thought we had the killer too
until this arrived.

It came in the mail. No return address.

Kind of makes me think you had
more reason to kill Danzig than McKay did.

And according to this...

...Danzig was responsible
for your brother's death.

So what?

I might have hated him,
but I didn't kill him.

That's funny.
McKay says the same thing.

Said he didn't kill him either.
You never get a flat-out confession.

You're not gonna get one from me.
This dossier doesn't mean anything.

It means you had more of a motive
than we realized.

You never did say where you were
the night he was killed.

That's right, I didn't.

I'd like to know.

- Is that an official question?
- Curious.

In that case, it's none of your business.

Until such time
as you wanna make a formal charge...

...stay away from me.

I suppose you were just here
reading a good book or something.

Do I have to get a court order?

No, ma'am.

If we meet again, it will be real official...

...but for an innocent woman,
you sure are acting strange.

[SPEAKS IN SPANISH]

He was so easy, it was pathetic.

I convince him that I was leaving the door
open for him to get the company back.

And he jumped at the chance.

I just don't understand
why you want him working for you.

Because it's much easier
to keep an eye on him that way.

And to make his life more miserable.

I always thought I was tough.

But I didn't know the meaning of the word
till I met you.

[LEEANN CHUCKLES]

Because you've never had a reason to be.

But believe me, I have.

LEEANN:
I was 17 years old.

All of a sudden
at the University of Texas.

Biggest place I ever seen.

MICHELLE:
Are you from a small town?

So was I.

LEEANN: Oh, well, I'll bet your daddy
wasn't a Baptist school teacher.

Let me tell you, that was one strict man.
Heh.

I'd never even been to a dance back home.

No wonder you were scared.

Well, it took a while, but I got used to it.

I just kind of lost myself in my books.

Then I got a job in a little restaurant
to help pay the bills.

And that's where you met him?

Later.

It was toward the end of the first year.

I'd never met anyone quite like him.

A lot of people have said that.

He was mighty impressive,
Mr. J.R. Ewing.

I never saw anybody quite like him.

Real high-stepping senior.

Heir to Ewing Oil. Ha.

He was something.

- And you started dating him?
- After a while.

I said no for along time.

There were lots of girls there...

...and I couldn't quite figure out
why he kept coming after me.

From what I hear,
J.R. mostly wants what he can't have.

Mm. That might have been it.

Thank you.

He finally were me down.

We went out and it was wonderful.

I've never been to the kinds of places
that he took me.

He knew everyone.

Just being with him
made me feel kind of special.

Thank you.

I forgot all the good things
my daddy drummed into me.

And one day, I realized I was pregnant.

- Well, you told him, didn't you?
- Oh, of course.

I thought he'd be happy.

I thought we'd get married
and everything would be all right.

But what he did was call me everything
but the village where.

He said he didn't think
the baby was his...

...and that he wasn't gonna spoil his life
by marrying some little no-account like me.

That's J.R., all right.

But did you have the baby?

Oh, honey.

Things were different then.

Unmarried pregnancies were unacceptable
in those days.

I knew my parents
would never understand.

It would cause a scandal
in the small town I came from.

I couldn't go home.

And I couldn't have the baby.

So I did something
I've regretted all my life.

You had an abortion.

A girlfriend told me about a doctor.

[SCOFFS]

Doctor.

He was a miserable, dirty quack.

He did it in some nasty little hotel room.

Oh, I lost my baby, all right.

But I almost died from the abortion.

Oh, LeeAnn.

It took me along time to recover.

I had to drop out of college...

...and by the time I got back on my feet,
all my money was gone.

No wonder you wanna get back at him.

Oh, I don't just want to get back at him.

I'm going to change his life totally.

Just like he changed mine.

Beaumont, this is the last time.

What are you doing here?

I came to congratulate you.

I hear you made a complete ass of yourself
the other night at the Oil Barons.

Just trying to make life better
for my daddy.

What business is it of yours?

None. Anybody that harpoons J.R.,
I'm in favor of.

Think I've forgiven him for shipping me out
to the Bahamas like that?

You bitching about that?

Look, he might have gotten Inagaki
to offer you that job.

But you're the one who took it.

You're the one who ran off
on your sister and me.

You could've stopped me.

If you would've asked me to stay,
I would have.

Hey, I don't lead anybody's life
but my own.

You knew just what you were doing.

Looking around here,
I think it's a good thing I did leave town.

Can you imagine me
ending up with some dumb mechanic?

Hey, nobody asked you
to end up with me.

And don't think I'm not glad.

You don't care about anybody
but yourself.

You're even willing to let your mother
marry that snake, J.R.

Don't you even care enough about her
to break them up?

That's what the Oil Barons was about.

I thought her finding out about Cally's baby
would do it.

But it didn't seem to matter to her at all.

I don't know.
Maybe they deserve each other.

But she's your mother.

You know J.R.'s gonna do to her
what he's done to his other wives.

Not that it's any real business of yours...

...but I do know my mother pretty well.

And the first time she finds
he's cheating on her, she's gone.

And if I know J.R., it won't be too long.

You can't be sure about that.

Oh, yeah, it will happen.

The only question is when.

What a sad thought.

Oh, I can see it's breaking your heart.

While I still got a job, why don't you split?

Why don't I?

If I need a mechanic, I'll call you.

Don't bother.

I don't think I can fix the problem you have
with your motor.

Not anymore, that's for damn sure.

- You wanted to see me?
- I wanna talk.

- You want your lawyer present?
- I don't need him.

You don't mind this
in case the issue comes up later?

I don't give a damn.

DETECTIVE: Go ahead, reminding you
that this conversation is of your initiation...

...and taking place at your request.

With no coercion or intimidation
on our part.

Okay, I'm doing this of my own free will.

I also wanna repeat
that I did not kill Johnny Dancer.

I also don't like
spending any time in a cell...

...so I'm gonna tell you the truth
about that night.

DETECTIVE:
Go ahead.

I was at the Quorum that night
and I did meet with Johnny.

We had a drink together which is why
those fingerprints are on the glass.

And what was the purpose
of the meeting?

I was trying to convince him
to stay away from Westar.

DETECTIVE:
And?

And nothing.

He said he was gonna do
what he pleased.

I didn't stay very long.

Are you telling us that he was alive
when you left him?

You're damn right, he was.

Then why were you still at the hotel
after the shooting...

...as several eyewitnesses have testified?

At the time Johnny was shot,
I was in another room at the hotel...

...with a lady.

Unfortunately,
she happens to be the wife...

...of one of the most important men
in this state and if he found out, he could--

Oh, boy.

Compared to spending any more time
in a cell, I'm willing to take my chances.

And are you willing now to tell us
just who this lady is?

I don't wanna say it on the tape.

Important isn't the word.

If she vouches for you,
nobody would doubt her.

Especially something like this.

Talk to her.
She'll tell you what happened.

As long as you keep it quiet.

No guarantees about privacy,
but we'll talk to her.

I sure hope you're not wasting our time.

You've wasted enough of mine.

Take him back.

What do you think?

Could be just dumb enough to be true.

Let's find out.

J.R.:
I want you to stay at the office.

Work for her.

SLY:
I feel like a traitor to you.

Darling, you're gonna be my eyes,
my ears.

Now, I've let loose a pack of people
to dig up some dirt on her.

And they've only been able
to go back 20 years...

...when she was married to De La Vega.

Before that, nothing.

She either used a phony name,
or she doesn't have a past.

What I'm trying to say is
I don't have useful information on her.

Whatever you find out,
I've gotta know.

J.R., you know I'd do anything
to help you.

But she knows I was your secretary.

She's not gonna trust me
with any information.

Yeah, I know that.

I don't want you to be pushy
or do anything suspicious.

Sooner or later, she's gonna drop
her guard and when she does...

...that's when I'm gonna make my move.

- Okay.
- You better get back to work.

- Aren't you coming back to the office?
- No.

Not right now.
I got a meeting with Harlem Murdock.

Murdock. Isn't he the man who setup
those dummy corporations for you?

Yeah, that's right.

I'm gonna activate a couple of them.

Just in case I have to make
a purchase or two.

To try and get the company back?

Piece by piece, darling. Piece by piece.

I'm gonna beat Mrs. De La Vega yet.

- Hello.
- How nice to see you.

Thank you for joining me.

I was curious
as to why you wanted to meet.

Well, I thought as long
as we'll be sharing J.R...

...in a sense, that it would be nice
to get to know one another.

And I didn't congratulate you properly
on your engagement.

Thank you.

That was quite a party.

You must love J.R. a lot.

Yes, I do.

What an odd thing to say.

Oh, please, don't take offense.
I only meant that from what I saw...

...your son and your future husband
don't seem to like each other very much.

No.

No, that's true.

And I love my son a great deal.

But I'm also concerned
about my own happiness.

If I have to choose, it will be J.R.

I envy you.

Feeling that way about a man.

I've been a widow
these past few years...

...and I don't think I could ever feel about
any other man the way you feel about J.R.

That...

That special, wonderful feeling.

But you see,
to me it's much more than that.

He's the first man I ever truly loved.

So it almost seems like a miracle.

Mm. I'm sure it must feel that way.

And were you J.R.'s first great love?

I don't know, I--

Well, I'd like to think so.

I know there were other women
before me.

But perhaps they didn't matter to him
the way that I--

Well, the way that I seem to.

I do want you to know how wonderful it is
that you mean so much to J.R.

And he to you.

It gives me something to think about.

PHYLLIS:
I'm sorry the Paris lead turned up empty.

BOBBY:
Well, at least I got to talk to Mama.

And I'm still looking.

Phyllis, I think this just about does it.

Bobby,
I know why you sold the company.

But I just feel like crying.

Ah' come on. Things'“ get back to normal.

I'll get into something new.
When I do, I want you with me.

I hope so. I don't know
how long I'm gonna last without you.

BOBBY:
Well, hopefully, it won't be too long.

Take your hand off that picture.

You dishonored the man hanging there.

That's the way you see it, huh?

J.R.:
You're damn right, I do.

How can you look at Daddy's picture,
defend what you did?

No matter what you think, J.R.,
it wasn't easy.

But it was the right thing.

Bobby, you have every right in the world
to mourn April.

But burying Ewing Oil
is not gonna bring her back.

You better get it in your thick head
there is no Ewing Oil anymore.

Our name may not be on the door,
but as long as one Ewing works here...

...it's still Ewing Oil
and I want that picture to stay.

Daddy looking down on one boy
he can still be proud of.

Fine. You can have it.

And you're right.

Daddy wouldn't have understood,
but I don't give a damn.

Phyllis, send all this to the ranch.

PHYLLIS:
Yes, sir.

How can you talk to him that way
after all he's been through?

- No concern of yours.
- But he's your brother.

[J.R. SIGHS]

If you wanna keep on working here,
you better watch your mouth, lady.

As far as I'm concerned,
I am an only child.

- Thanks.
- Thank you.

I can't imagine what I ever saw in him.

He's really happy just being a mechanic.

At first, I thought it was to get under
J.R.'s skin.

But I don't think so anymore.

But if that's not what he wanted
then why that announcement at the party?

According to him,
it was to make his mother see the light.

Well, if my lunch with his mother
was any indicator...

...she's going full speed ahead
with the marriage plans.

Marry in haste.

Repent at leisure.

You think?

She seems very much in love with him.

And he with her.

Her version of love and his
may be two different things.

I bet she's planning along life
of monogamous bliss.

But not J.R.?

Not the one I know.

And from what James told me...

...the first time J.R. rocks the boat,
she is gone.

Well, he should know.

Do you think J.R. could be talked
into jeopardizing their relationship?

J.R. could be talked into anything
for Ewing Oil.

Wouldn't that be sad?

First to lose his company,
and then his wife.

You will let me be part of it.

I don't think I'm gonna need much help...

...but since none of this
would've happened without you...

...you might as well be there for the kill.

Who would ever guess
meeting you in the Bahamas...

...would let us do what we've done
to the Ewings?

[LEEANN CHUCKLING]

Anyone who believes in truth, justice
and the American way.

[MICHELLE LAUGHS]

Here's to the American way.

Mr. Ewing?

Mr. Breslin hereto see you.

BOBBY:
Oh, thanks, Teresa.

Well, Breslin, good evening.

Regrettably, I don't think it is, sir.

We're hitting nothing but dead ends.

Sheila Foley is gonna be no help at all.

Everyone else in this picture...

...with the exception of our mystery woman
is now dead.

Well, I obviously knew about Jordan Lee
and John Foley.

But what about the others?
How did they die?

- Is there any pattern?
- No, sir.

The Ridleys, this couple here,
they were in a boating accident.

The other man died of a heart attack
last year named BJ Swanson.

You don't know any more
than you did at the sanitarium?

I'm sorry, Mr. Ewing.

This is turning out to be a lot more
difficult than I ever anticipated.

Can I keep this?

Of course, sir, but why?

[SIGHS]

I know somebody
who's got real good contacts.

They owe me a favor.

Oh, Janine.

Thank you for coming.

You know I wouldn't gotten you involved
in this unless it was absolutely necessary.

All I want you to do
is tell them what happened that night.

It will never go any further than here
and your husband need not know.

Is this the man?

Yes, ma'am.

He claims the two of you were together
at the Quorum at the time of the shooting.

Why are you doing this?

Is it some sort of political blackmail?

Janine, just tell them, please.

I don't know how you know who I am
or why you gave my name to the police...

...but I have never seen you before
in my life.

Then why did you come down here?

To confront you face-to-face.

To stop any hint of rumors spreading.

Mr. McKay's story's false, I take it.

JANINE:
It is a horrendous lie.

And I tell you now, if you persist in this...

...my husband will be informed.

And you will all regret that day.

I can assure you.

Ma'am, you understand
we did have to follow all the leads?

I understand.

But I expect never to see
any of you again.

Well, you were either telling the truth
or that was the dumbest alibi I ever heard.

Did you really think
she'd stand up for you?

She was with me as God as my witness.

I don't think his testimony is admissible.

So you got a real problem.

[LIZ & CLIFF LAUGHING]

LIZ: Cliff, you have to
spend some time at the office.

CLIFF:
Oh, it's more fun here.

LIZ: I thought you
wanted to impress Washington.

CLIFF:
Yeah. But I'd rather impress you.

Oh, I'm impressed. I'm impressed.

- Now get to work.
- Yeah, okay.

Listen, why don't we order up
some breakfast, huh?

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

- Did you already call room service?
- No.

Yes?

BOBBY:
Uh, Liz, it's Bobby Ewing.

LIZ:
Um, Bobby.

- Come on in.
- I'm sorry to bother you--

- Listen, is this bad timing?
- No.

LIZ:
No, of course not.

Besides, I have something to show you.

It's official.

Well, I guess I can assume
everything is all right?

Aw, more than all right.
I'm the luckiest man in the world.

Really sorry, Bobby.

That's fine, Cliff, I'm happy for you.
And you too, Liz.

Thanks, Bobby.

Once they arrested McKay,
it took the pressure off us.

Yeah.

So, what brings you over?

Actually, I need some help, Liz.

LIZ:
With What?

With this.

That's the lady I've been looking for
and I've hit nothing but dead ends.

I was hoping you could run it through
your contacts and come up with something.

Well, I'll try, Bobby.

She'll do the best she can, really.

BOBBY:
I just need a name.

Just a name.

LEEANN:
We appreciate your interest.

But at this point,
we have made no definite decision...

...as to take the company public
or to keep it a private holding.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

Come on in.

Oh. I'm sorry.
Am I interrupting something?

We're practically finished. Come on in.

Uh, sincerely yours, etcetera, etcetera.

- I'll sign it in the morning.
- Yes, ma'am.

- Would you like me to type that up tonight?
- No, go on home.

- Good night then.
- Good night.

SLY: J. R.
- Sly.

Well...

You do keep long hours.

Well, I could say the same for you.

Why don't you pour us a drink?

Soda, right?

Right, soda.

So, what was it you wanted?

You sure you're not too tired
to talk about business?

It's my favorite subject.

Well, in that case,
I got some good news for you.

I've had some people approach me...

...who are very interested
in acquiring some Ewing holdings.

De La Vega holdings.

You know, that's gonna take me
along time to get used to.

[CHUCKLES]

We have time.

So, what about these holdings?

Well, actually, it involves some very
old fields of ours, long past their prime.

Some developers are interested
in the acreage alone.

For shopping malls and housing projects.
Stuff like that.

And they made a very good offer.

Did Vanessa tell you
we had lunch the other day?

Yeah, yeah, she did.

And she also said
that she admired your brains and beauty.

How sweet.

I was very impressed by her too.

By how much she loves you.

She talked about you a lot.

Well, that's nice to hear.

Now, about those fields.
Ewing 1 and Ewing 23.

And like I said,
they made a hell of an offer.

Well, at the moment,
I have no desire to sell anything.

But I must say,
you're really surprising me.

Oh, how's that?

Well, so many people would feel bitter
in your circumstances.

But you're really trying to make
our arrangement work.

I admire that in you.

And I also have to say
I find you very attractive.

But that sort of attraction
could be very bad for our relationship.

Yes, it could.

And you're a very beautiful woman,
LeeAnn.

But I'm about to marry the woman
I've always loved.

I know.

She told me.

Well, it's been along day
and I'm sure you have things to do tonight.

LEEANN:
Hm.

It really is too bad.

This doesn't have to end with Ewing Oil.

[DOOR CLOSES]

[CHUCKLES]

NARRATOR:
Next on Dallas:

[GRUNTS]

Looking for your ex-partner,
Hillary Taylor.

I'm not gonna talk about Hillary
and that's it.

Now get out of my way.

You'll like things south of the border.

- You seem to have a strange effect on her.
- Yeah, I do.

I'm just frightened. Please don't go.

WOMAN:
There isn't much I can't do.

BOBBY:
You might be right.

You are exactly what I need. Come on.

I get carried away by my emotions.

It's really my only weakness.
