"You know, if Sue Ellen hadn't told us J.R. was in Austin I'd have sworn that was him." "You have embarrassed me for the last time." "You're gonna stop that carrying on, you're gonna stop it right now." "If I don't?" "What'll you do about it?" "Tonight I need you." "I really need you." "Shall we continue our surveillance?" "Yes." "I suppose it's time we do something about old Cliff Barnes." "Hello." "Sue Ellen, it's your mom." "Excuse me, Miss Ellie." " Mama?" " Oh, Sue Ellen." "Well, I just wanted to call you and say how wonderful it was to see you last night." "Well, you know how happy that made me feel when you moved back to Dallas." "Well, I'm just sorry J.R. wasn't able to be with you." "Now, I already told you he had to be in Austin for a while." "He'll be back tomorrow, and he'll come over to say hello." "Oh, that would be nice." "Perhaps then you could invite Kristin and me to Southfork to meet your friends." "Now, Mama, we talked about that last night." "When the time is right, I'll make sure that Kristin meets someone." "Not just anyone, you know, dear." "You know how I feel about the right men for my daughters." "Yes, I know, Mama." "I'll talk to you soon." "Bye-bye, darling." "Well, I am impressed." " Did you get tired of your underdog look?" " Underdog's out." "Now it's the winner look that's in." " Hey, the election's two years away." " Campaign anytime." "Well, that's it." "You can take it off now." "Okay." "I thank you." "When can I get that?" "Two or three more days." "Two, three days." " You got no pull?" " Well, I don't know." " I'll bring it over myself when it's ready." " Okay." "Thanks." "So I gotta go." "I got an appointment." " Have a good day." " I will." "Bye-bye." "It was nice of you to drive all this way, Sue Ellen." "Well, I thought it was important to see the new hospital wing." "I just can't get over how Fort Worth keeps growing." "Well, I do believe that our civic center is one of the most attractive in the state." "Yes." "It is lovely." "I must say that pregnancy does agree with you." "When I had my first, I couldn't get out of bed for the first seven months much less drive all the way to Fort Worth." "Well, I've been feeling just fine." "And J.R.?" "Has he been playing the proud papa to the hilt?" "Well, I have never seen a man carry on so about having a baby." "We have just never been happier." "As a matter of fact, my mama and my baby sister have moved back to Dallas just to be near me." " I think that's so nice." "Now, if you can just get J.R. to stop driving himself so hard." "That's true." "My Ed said he has never seen a man so devoted to his work." "J.R. takes his responsibility to Ewing Oil very, very seriously." "As a matter of fact, he's in Austin right now, closing a very important deal." "He should be home later this evening." "Now, Mr. Barnes, when the last election unfortunately went against you you called us and wanted our help." "Is that not true?" "Yes." "I found out the most important things in politics weren't one's platform, necessarily but how much backing one had." "Well, that's not exactly what the idealists would say but it is a fact of life." "But despite your loss, Mr. Barnes, we feel that you have a lot to offer." "And, well, we waited this long because the right opportunity hadn't presented itself." " I don't understand." " An appointed position." "The state, as you may know is establishing a bureau of land management." "The man who heads that bureau will carry considerable weight." "What does the bureau do?" "They have final approval on all land-use projects in the state:" "Building, drilling, ranching." "And all new large projects would be cleared through that office." "You can get that appointment?" "I think we can guarantee it." "You see, that's what I don't understand, Mr. Maxwell." "Who is "we"?" "We are the ones that want to and can help you." "Certainly it's not because I'm such a terrific person." "Well, we feel that we could work well together." "I'm sure we would providing we saw eye to eye." "I don't think you're in a position to dictate terms, Mr. Barnes." "I don't think I'm willing to sell my soul." "Well, we're hardly asking for souls merely agreement." "On what?" "Would you come this way, please?" "It's very impressive." "What is it?" "The future of South Dallas." "Not too far from the downtown area." "Well, that's strange because I thought that area was already full of houses." "Low cost, low class." "The city would be better off without them." "How do you get rid of them?" "The right of eminent domain." "The most good for the most people." "Especially for the people building them, huh?" "I assume there would need be some zoning changes." "Minimal, but they would fall under the province of the land-management bureau." "We condemn them, you build them and there's a quick few million dollars' profit." "Of course, we'll need a guarantee of your cooperation before you assume your new position." " I'm sure you would." "Nice to know that you gentlemen think so highly of me." "You dangle the bait in front of me and then expect me to sell out." "Expediency is not selling out, Mr. Barnes." "It's one hand washing the other." "I'm not quite sure my hands are that dirty." "Thank you, gentlemen." "Still hardheaded, isn't he?" " Should we think of someone else?" " No, not yet." "He wants the job." "Give him time." "You know, if Sue Ellen hadn't told us J.R. was in Austin I'd have sworn that was him." "Funny." "I was just thinking the same thing." "Well, good evening." "I don't think the doctor would appreciate you drinking right now, honey." "Probably not." "How was your trip?" "Oh, same as usual." "That's the first truthful answer you've given me in quite some time, J.R." "That supposed to mean something?" "It means I am tired of you lying to me." "What?" "I saw you today, J.R." "I was in Fort Worth having lunch with a few friends of mine." "I just finished telling them that you were in Austin and you came parading through the lobby with some tramp of yours." "Well, you know I wouldn't associate with that kind of woman." "Matter of fact, she was a very charming young lady, not a tramp at all." "You don't even have the grace to deny it." "Well, I have a feeling you wouldn't believe a denial." "I am not gonna put up with this anymore, J.R." "You have embarrassed me for the last time." "And you're gonna stop that carrying on, and you're gonna stop it right now." "Well, what if I don't?" "What are you gonna do about it?" "Sue Ellen, I'm not all bad." "I'm willing to accept that little bastard you're carrying around as my child though the good Lord himself only knows who the real father is." "There is one reason you're gonna accept it, and that's because it could be yours." "And that's why you'll change your lifestyle and become the loving father I tell everyone you are." "And what if I don't?" "If it ever happens again I'm gonna leave you." "You'd better think about that long and hard, Sue Ellen." "I happen to like my lifestyle just as much as you like the prestige and money that goes with being Mrs. J.R. Ewing." "And you'd better get used to what is, because I surely am not going to change." "You can go straight to hell." "Cliff?" "What are you doing here?" "I needed to see you." "Sue Ellen, you know how I feel about this." "Please." "Come on." "How did you get away from Southfork?" "J.R. out of town?" "No." "He's in town, all right." "Fact is I don't care where he is right now." "All right." "What's that got to do with us?" "I'm not sure." "Sue Ellen, I told you how I felt about you and what happened between us happened." "But it's over, and there's no point in seeing each other." "Cliff, I'm not asking you for anything but some of your time and it's not quite over between you and I." "I am carrying a baby and it could be yours." "Look, you think I don't know that?" "You think I want my child raised as a Ewing?" "You're playing some romantic game with me." "You're the one who started playing the games." " What did you think would happen?" " Not this." "But it did and I don't think it's any good you and I trying to lay blame." "Well, you're right." "You're absolutely right." "But that doesn't change anything because you belong at Southfork, not here." "And don't you understand that seeing you makes it worse?" "You may not want me here but I am not going there tonight." "Why?" "Because I don't want to give J.R. the satisfaction." "Is it really so much different between the other times that I was here?" "Isn't it?" "Maybe it's because the other times you were after me and now I'm after you." "Cliff, maybe I won't need you after tomorrow." "But tonight I need you." "I really need you." "What's Sue Ellen up to so early, J.R.?" "I notice her car's gone." "Well, her and her mother got something cooked up." "It must be pretty important for Sue Ellen to get up so early." "Oh, I don't know." "Some sort of ladies' affairs." "I don't pay much attention to it, Lucy." "She ought to have her mother and sister out to the ranch." "Oh, I expect she will." "She's talking about spending a couple days with her kind of get reacquainted, you know." " Her sister's about Lucy's age, isn't she?" " I think she's a little older, Dad." "Why?" "Well, she probably doesn't know anybody around here." "So I thought maybe Lucy could help her out." "Well, I'm a little bit busy, Granddaddy." "Don't worry, Lucy." "Her mother's got that girl's life pretty well-planned." "Well, Jock, if we're going to the doctor's, we'd better get started." "All right." "Let's go." " Why, J. R!" " Mrs. Shepard." "How delightful to see you." "Won't you come in?" "Thank you." "Thank you very much." "Well, look here." "You just fixed this up so nice." "Well, thank you." "We're renting because we don't know how long we'll be in Dallas." "Well, it's very homey." "I see I got here before Sue Ellen." " Was she coming by?" " Yes." "Talked about it last night." "I thought I might catch her here." "Well, that just gives us a little more time to visit, doesn't it?" "That would be nice." "Why don't you sit down?" "I'll get you some coffee." "Oh, no, don't go to any trouble, thank you." "I insist." " All right." " Kristin, come down and say hello to J.R." "Well, hi there, J.R." "Well, hi there yourself, honey." "Grown some since you last saw me, haven't I?" "Yeah." "Yeah, you have." "Think I look like Sue Ellen?" "Most people don't." "There's a resemblance, that's for sure." "Where is she?" " Who?" " Sue Ellen." "Oh, yeah." "Well, I just told your mother, she's..." "She'll be here shortly." "Oh, great." "Well, that'll just give us a chance to talk till she gets here." "Yeah." " You think you're gonna like Dallas?" " I know I am." "Well, now, J.R., don't you think Kristin's turned into a beautiful young woman?" "Well, she surely has, Mrs. Shepard." " J.R., Patricia, please." " Patricia." "Of course." "Sorry." "My fondest hope for her is that she'll be just as fortunate in her choice of husbands as Sue Ellen was." "I don't think you're gonna have the slightest trouble." "I don't think so, either." "Yeah." "Sue Ellen?" "Oh, I thought you'd be at work, Bobby." "Well, I thought you'd be at your mother's." "Well, looks like we both were wrong." "Can I help you with those?" "Or would you like to talk for a minute?" "About what?" "About why you're leaving Southfork with two suitcases." "You really care?" "Why?" "Does that surprise you?" "I have been here seven years, Bobby and in all that time, I never got the feeling that you cared." "I got the feeling I was just someone you said hello to in the morning." "You don't leave a whole lot of room for much else, you know." "Well, it doesn't matter anymore, Bobby." "I'm leaving." "I can't put up with your brother any longer." "Sue Ellen..." "I realize I'm the last one in the world to offer advice on how to handle J. R but if you two are having trouble you're not the only ones it ever happened to." "You know your brother, Bobby." "You know the way he leads his life and what he does." "Well, I just choose not to put up with it any longer." "You know I love Southfork." "And if there was any other way, I..." "I wouldn't be leaving." "Sue Ellen, what about your baby?" "I mean, things like this have a way of bringing people together sometimes." "Well, you're just gonna have to take my word for it, Bobby." "It hasn't." "As a matter of fact, it's made things worse." "You just ask J.R. He'll..." "He'll tell you all about it." "I'd..." "I'd really like to get going before he comes back." "Do you still want to help me?" "Come on." "Let's go." "Hey, Bobby." "Sue Ellen home?" "No, J.R., she left." "With a couple of suitcases." "I see." "Well, I..." "I guess she's planning on staying at her mother's longer than I thought." "She told me she was leaving you, J.R." "Is that a fact?" "Just come out to say she's leaving, did she?" "No." "No, I asked her." "I thought maybe I could help." "Whatever gave you the idea we needed any help?" "The fact that's she's leaving you!" "She also told me to ask you about the baby." "Now, why would Sue Ellen having a baby force you two apart?" "Now, Bobby, let's get something straight." "If I ever need your help, I'll ask for it." "Truly, I will." "Now, you take care of your wife, and I'll handle mine." "Hello." "I'd like to speak to Mr. Marsh, please." "Hello, Dan." "It's J.R." "I got a job for you." "Yes." "It's my wife." "I want to know what she's up to." "I think there's a good chance that you could find her at 1511 Royal Oak." "I want you to put a tail on her." "I want to know everybody she talks to, everybody she sees." "I'm all right." "Thank you." "Yes?" " It's me, Mama." " Oh, Sue Ellen." " Hello, Mama." " Hello." "Didn't expect to see you here tonight." "J.R. was here this morning, you know." "Wondering where I was, was he?" "Well, yes." "Aren't you gonna mention anything about my suitcase, Mama?" "Well, I see it's a very expensive one." "The kind of suitcase someone married to a wealthy man might have, right?" "There's nothing wrong with being married to a wealthy man." "Well, there is if that man happens to be J.R. Ewing." "Don't say that." "Look at all he's done for you." "What I am looking at is how hard you have worked to turn me into the perfect wife for him." "And I succeeded." "When your father died, that's all I devoted my life to." "Kristin, come on in." "Might be good for you to hear this." "I can see her doing the same thing to you." "J.R. doesn't seem all that bad to me." "Doesn't he?" "Well, you're doing a better job on her than I thought." "She knows I'm doing it all for her, as I did for you." "Well, there are a few things that you forgot to teach me." "Really?" "And what would those things be?" "Well, for one thing how do I live without a man in my bed?" "And how do I live knowing that when I am alone he's off with some floozy somewhere?" "Some men are like that, Sue Ellen." "There are worse things to live with." "You mean you're leaving him just because he cheated on you?" "And that doesn't bother you?" "Not if I had what you've got." "And what have I got that's so wonderful?" "For one thing, you've got his baby." "That baby's entitled to his birthright." "That's funny, Mama." "That is real funny." "I fail to see the humor in it." "Leaving your husband is a very serious matter, Sue Ellen." "I stayed with your father, though he had far less to offer than J.R." "I didn't think you'd understand, Mama." "But I thought you might." "Oh, I do understand." "You're ticked off because you caught him cheating on you." "You're leaving a lot behind just to get exclusive rights." "Look I did not come here to argue." "I came here to spend the night." "It looks like I should have gone to a hotel." "I won't have it." "Of course you should come here." "Just because I don't agree with you doesn't mean I don't want you here." "Thank you, Mama." "Hello." "Cliff?" "It's me." "I know how you feel about me calling you but I must see you." "It's very important." " All right." "Where?" " Noon." "Your apartment." " Come ahead." " J.R. here?" " Yes, sir." "He's in his office." "J.R., just what in the hell's going on?" " Going on where, sir?" " At home." "You and Sue Ellen." "Teresa told me that she left yesterday with two bags packed." "Well, we've got a few problems, Dad." "We'll work it out soon enough." "You want to have problems?" "Why didn't you do it before she was gonna have a baby?" "You've had seven years to do it in." "Well, sir, I didn't exactly choose the time." "Ever since she's been pregnant, she's been acting peculiar." "She's turning into a very unreasonable young lady." "You've got your mother worried sick." "She was looking forward to having that grandchild at Southfork, and so was I." "Yes." "I know how much this baby means to you, both of you." "Well, then you know that I'm not gonna stand for any more foolishness." "Whatever it takes, you bring Sue Ellen home." "We want her back at Southfork." "I'll do my best, sir." "I'm gonna tell Miss Ellie that you're gonna handle this matter." "So you be damned sure that you don't make me out a liar." "Whatever it takes." "Cliff, I've got to talk to you for a minute." "And I don't want you to interrupt, all right?" "All right." "I've been doing a lot of thinking since last night." "About how important the things J.R. does are to me." "And how important you are to me." "And whether I could spend the rest of my life putting up with J. R having my own affairs behind his back, and I decided I can't do it." "I'm leaving him." "That's it." "Okay." "What do you want me to say?" ""Boo!"" ""Hooray!"" ""Attagirl!"" ""Don't do it!"" "Something to let me know how you feel!" "Are you leaving him because of me?" "Partly." "But I would have left him anyway." "To do what?" "To go where?" "Cliff, is that the best you can do?" "Don't you want me?" "Look, I came here because I thought we might have some reasonable chance to be happy together." "Do you think J.R.'s gonna let that happen?" "That's up to you." "Are you gonna let J.R. beat you again?" " Are you gonna let him raise my baby?" " No." "I want you." "I want the baby." "I want it to be mine." "But I don't want you to use me to beat J.R." "I wouldn't do that." "You'll have to start thinking of how you can live without that Ewing money without Southfork, without all of the things you've become accustomed to because I am a long way from that world." "I can try." "As long as I know that you need me and want me I can try." "All right." "We can try together." "Hello." "My name's Dan Marsh." "J.R.'s expecting me." " Mr. Marsh is here, Mr. Ewing." " Send him in." "You girls can leave." "Oh, thank you." "You can go right in now." "It's right through there." " Just take care of this in the morning." " Okay." "Fine." "Come in." "Dan." " Want a drink?" " No, thank you." "Well, this must be pretty important you not wanting to tell me anything over the phone." "It is." "Well, let's get to it." "Your wife's activities have been fairly simple to observe." "She went to a man's apartment today, and she's back there again tonight." "Knowing who he was, we backtracked and found they have been together at various times over the past two months mostly in his apartment." "You got a name for me?" "Yes, sir." "Well..." "I gotta hand it to Sue Ellen." "Never in the world would I have thought of that man." "Shall we continue our surveillance?" "Yes." "I suppose it's time we do something about old Cliff Barnes." "Special customer service, courtesy of The Store." "Very impressive." " Bad timing?" " No." "Come on in." "Thank you." " The place is a mess, as usual." " As usual." "Clifford, custom-made suits and, if my nose is correct, $ 100-an-ounce perfume." "New lady for your new image?" "You're my sister, not my mother." "I don't have to answer questions like that." "Hey, I'm sorry, but I'm gonna be late for an appointment." "Well, go get dressed." "I'll try and clean up here." "Guess you are my mother." "Cliff?" " What was Sue Ellen doing here?" " What?" "This is Sue Ellen's scarf." "What was she doing here?" "It's none of your business." "Oh, but it is." "She happens to be my sister-in-law." "Now, I dislike J.R. just as much as you do but I hate to think you'd get back at him this way." "It's got nothing to do with J.R. She came to me for help." "She wanted for me to try to help her find the girl whose child she was gonna adopt." "You usually see your clients in your office, Cliff." "With all the lawyers in the world, why would she come to see you?" " What difference does that make?" " It makes a big difference." "You're not playing around with J.R.'s secretary." "It's his wife." "And if he finds out, he'll ruin you, and I don't think I'd blame him." "On top of which, she happens to be pregnant." "Or didn't you know that?" "Yeah." "She told me." "Pam." "Get the hell out of here." "That good a day, huh?" "That good." "Darling, you can always quit." "Oh, it's not my job." "It's everything else." "Like what?" "Oh, Bobby, I am so confused." "Now, I've always been so sure that the Ewings were the bad guys." "They're the ones who'll do anything to anyone." "And the Barneses are the poor but honest good guys?" "Yeah." "But it's not true, is it?" "Honey, are you gonna tell me what this is all about?" "I don't know if I can explain it." "All of a sudden, I can't tell the players without a scorecard." "Barnes." "Ewing." "I mean, when you get right down to it, what's the difference?" "Well, outside of a couple million dollars, not a whole lot." "Except there are more of us, including you." "That's right." "Well, I'll tell you something." "It wasn't as big a step as I thought from Barnes to Ewing." "Darling, if you're talking about J.R., it doesn't run in the family." "I hope not." "This time, J.R. and I would be on the same side." "Bobby, let's go into town, have dinner, stay over." " I don't feel like a family gathering." " Okay." "I just want to be with you." "If you can't talk about it, you can't." "But I think it would help if you did." "Later." "What is this?" "A Mr. Maxwell sent it." "The men who brought it over said you might be expecting it." " They did?" " Well, yes, sir." "Hope you don't mind that I let them put it up in here." "It's all right." "It's not your fault." "Well, I expect Mr. Maxwell will be calling me pretty soon and when he does put your hands over your ears, because I don't think you'll like to hear what I have to say to him." "Yes, sir." "Yes?" "There's a J.R. Ewing here to see you." "Give me a minute." "Send him in." "Barnes." "I should've killed you when I had a chance." "Well, I guess not even you are capable of cold-blooded murder." "No, I wasn't then." "That's before I found out about the cheap little romance you're having with my wife." " That's the way you look at it, huh?" " That's the only way to look at it." "You're a cheap little man, Barnes with a little man's dreams." "Sue Ellen, on the other hand, is a very expensive lady too expensive for a cheap little man like you." "Always comes down to that with you, right?" "Money?" "You gonna offer to buy me off?" "I'm not gonna have to buy you out." "You're gonna call it off all by yourself." "Sue Ellen's carrying my baby." "She's gonna be my wife." "The child's gonna be raised mine." "Well, that child may very well be yours." "On the other hand, it may be mine." "Either way, it's gonna be raised a Ewing." "I think the best thing for you to do is just to back off." "Because how do you think Jock Ewing would feel about your wife carrying my baby?" "Oh, it's gonna be difficult." "There's no question about that." "But after a while my dad, and everybody else, will blame the whole thing on that tramp I married." "Especially if she ends up with you." "Just another case of a Barnes picking up Ewing leftovers." " You are the most..." " Now, you just hang on." "Like I said, it's gonna be embarrassing for me for a while." "But I got a lot of money and a lot of power, and I'll get over it." "For you, it'd be suicide." " Would it?" " Yeah." "You want to know why I do so well?" "Because I know how to play the other man's game." "I know what makes you tick, Barnes." "I know what you need." "You need power." "You want to be a senator or governor be appointed to some fancy office." "Of course, you found out in the last election that anybody involved in scandal can't get elected dogcatcher." "You know, it's funny about people." "They'll put up with all kinds of strange things from men like me." "But if the truth of you and Sue Ellen comes out you'll be lucky if you're not run out of town." "You'd do that, wouldn't you?" "You'd make a scandal out of it." "I don't see as I have any choice." "I don't see you have a choice, either." "You better make up your mind quick because I think Sue Ellen will call on you." "Soon." "What am I supposed to tell her?" "Tell her the truth." "Tell her there is something that means more to you than she does." " Oh, J.R." " Patricia." " May I come in?" " Please." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Is Sue Ellen here?" "I just want to say to you how truly sorry I am that you and Sue Ellen are having problems." "I appreciate it." "I just want to speak to her and try to talk her into coming back to Southfork." " lf there's anything I can do, J. R..." " I can rely on you, I know it." "But I think this is best done between Sue Ellen and myself." "Of course." "Something you wanted, J.R.?" "I want you to come back to Southfork." "Why?" "Because you love me and miss me?" " I think you know why." " I do." "And that's why I'm not going." "I'm willing to overlook your affair with Cliff Barnes." "So you know about it and you're willing to overlook it." "Well, I am not willing to overlook your affairs." "I don't think you have a choice." "And if I have to, I'll have a couple of the boys take you down to a hospital I know." "When you come out of there, you'll be without child and everybody will just call it one of those unfortunate miscarriages." "On top of that, I'll add one of the messiest divorces you've ever seen and you'll come out of that without one penny and no Ewing name." " Cliff's never gonna put up with that." "I'll show you how fair I am." "Why don't you call him?" "Or, better yet, why don't you arrange to meet him?" "See how far he's willing to go for you and how far he'll let me go." "Just tell me that he was wrong, Cliff." "Look, I don't know what to say." " Maybe you can't fight city hall?" " What are you telling me?" " I thought you love me." " I do." "I do, in my own way." "It's just that J.R. made me realize that there are things that I need and I can't have them and you." "And would it be so bad just to have me?" "Look, if it stopped me from getting them, it would." "Because I might not ever be able to forgive myself or you for what our relationship might cost me." "And what about what it would cost me?" "Look, I can't explain it." "J.R. just pushes certain buttons and maybe I've got to learn to play the other man's game." "So that's what it is?" "Just a game?" "No." "The winner takes the marbles and goes home." "Is that what I am?" "Just the marbles?" "Look, I'm sorry." "You're sorry?" "Yeah." "So am I." "You'll never know how sorry." "Get in, Sue Ellen." "I'll have somebody pick up your car tomorrow." "Your mama's packed your bags." "They're in the back." "Now, come on, get in." "Now, shut the door." "Now, we'll have a nice family dinner at Southfork and you can explain all about your visit to your mama." "Everybody will be real happy to see you at home." "By the way, I've got a late meeting in Dallas tonight after dinner." "No need you waiting up for me." "Mr. Maxwell, please." "Cliff Barnes calling." " Maxwell?" " Yes." "You want your development?" "You've got it." "You've got anything you want." "You just get me that appointment, and that's for starters." "You get me enough power, and you've got anything you want." "How's that for playing the game?" "Subtitles by SDI Media Group" "[ENGLISH]"
