"You call this the battle between good and evil." "But I think instead it's a battle of ideals." "The right direction protects us." "You are Texas, Sue Ellen!" "You are Texas!" "You are Texas!" "So, even though we're 12 points ahead in the polls..." "There are two days left before the election." "We can't stop, and we can't be complacent." "Hello." ""Have a guy give you his boxers,"" ""show a guy your bra."" "What is this?" "It's just a few things to take off the list before I take the big leap." "I could take care of a couple of those things for you." "I don't know." "That grin tells me you're trouble." "Daddy told me to stay away from trouble." "Especially when I'm wearing five karats on my left hand from my fiancé." "You know how they say men make up for their manhood by buying fast cars?" "Well, that goes double for diamonds." "You are trouble." " May I?" " Go right ahead." "French kiss a stranger until his toes curl." "No." "No, don't do it." "Don't do it." "It's your last night." "Do it." "Brandee!" "Brandee!" "Brandee!" "Brandee!" "Do it, brandee." "My God." "Hey, go out the back way." "And be real quiet." "Daddy's probably up." "Of course." "Mr. Cartwell." "John Ross Ewing." "Morning." "What the hell do you think you're doing?" "I know that you have a bid from Drecker Trucking to buy your fleet." "Ewing Energies would like to match that bid, and raise it three percent." "I told you over the phone," "I would never sell my fleet to J.R.'s son." "Now, get the hell out of my house!" "With all due respect, sir, I want your fleet, and I ain't gonna take no for an answer." "Brandee, get down here!" "I have breakfast with the society writer of the Dallas morning news." "Told her I might have a scoop on your daughter." "She'll deny it." "I'll deny it." "I hate to be vulgar, but there's video of what happened last night." "Pretty tough to deny." "It's a dirty trick I actually hate, but which I find can be rather compelling." "Now, nobody outside of this house needs to find out about what happened last night." "I'm just here to offer you a good business deal." "Not blackmail." "For Christ's sake, Ewing, my daughter and her fiancé..." "They love each other." "Love is for pussies." "Now do we have a deal?" "Dallas S02 Ep01" " Battle Lines" "Christopher Ewing, meet Ricky Rudd." "Glad you could make it." "Good to meet you." "You too." "I have to tell you, I never expected a methane-fueled car to have that kind of power." "Well, methane comes out of the ground at 130 octane." "And that's 12 points higher than your top racing fuel." "And we're talking better horsepower, tunability, detonation protection, even throttle response." "You drive this car, it's gonna make you look good." "So you're doing me a favor." "The way Eddie described it, it's the other way around." "I won't lie to you." "I'm looking to get the contract to provide fuel for every piece of transport in the city of Dallas." "Now, what better way to get the attention of the D.C.T." "And to get that contract than to have Ricky Rudd race my car and win?" "And you really think it could against a conventional stock car?" "With the right driver, absolutely." "All I'm asking is that you take it for a spin." "Once you try it, you're never gonna want to drive gasoline again." "I'm not promising anything." "But leave her with me." "I'll run her through her paces." "I'll get back to you." "Sounds good." "Hey, thanks a lot, Eddie." "You bet, Chris." "All right." "I think he's gonna say yes." "Now, any chance you can bring this racing suit home with us?" "Morning, Joseph." "Morning, Mr. Ewing." "Dani." "Morning, Mr. Ewing." "I'm sorry, John Ross." "I tried to get him to leave." "Don't worry about it." "I know how slippery snakes can be." "Now, is that any way to talk about your father?" "It seems pretty appropriate, actually." "Now get your ass the hell out of my chair and these offices, until I call you with an invite." "Okay." "I only stopped by to find out if the advice I gave you about screwing that trucking heiress girl got you that company." "Your "advice" Did indeed work." "Now, if all your dirty little tricks are as much fun as that one, I think it won't be too long till the student surpasses the master." "Better pace yourself, boy." "I heard Christopher is courting the head of the D.C.T., trying to get her to convert the city fleet to methane." "Get the fuel contract." "Now, you need to focus on that, make sure it doesn't happen." "Anything we can do to cripple methane will turn my brother back into an oil man, and let you take control of this company." "D.C.T.'s already on my radar, J.R." "That ain't gonna happen." "And I've got some personal issues with my cousin that I need to focus on first." "Yeah, just remember, my boy, vengeance is a dish best served cold." "J.R.?" "What are you doing here?" "I was just leaving." "Came over to deliver some muffins to the pretty little secretaries." "Hey, son." "Who could have guessed so many would turn out to be men?" "Where's the sport in that?" "Conference room." "We only let you back into this company so we could move this family forward, and you're already going behind my back." "Our lawyer gave me your proposal to buy Cartwell Trucking for $50 million." "You know damn well that was money earmarked for my new methane rig." "I don't want to fight with you, cousin, but oil is here and now." "Methane is 20 years away from being profitable." "Until there's infrastructure, until there's demand..." "You're wrong." "Okay?" "Methane is here and now." "But I'll never be able to make it profitable unless this company invests in more rigs." "John Ross is right." "This company does need to be vertically integrated." "But for now, moving Southfork Oil is being taken care of by our lease arrangement with Hughes Trucking." "And because of Christopher, other energy companies are looking into methane as an alternative." "We have to get there first." "So if we're gonna take this to a vote, and I think we should..." "I vote with Christopher for the rig." "You and Christopher have 60% of this company." "I have 30%." "Elena's got 10%." "You always talk about this being a family business, but your side of the family is always gonna win." "John Ross, you always think it's you against us." "When you stop thinking like that, you're gonna realize you're just as much a part of this company as the rest of us." "Well, that sounded objective." "Would you give me and John Ross a minute, please?" "Yeah." "Thank you." "I'm gonna be nice so I can say I tried, but we both know it's only a matter of time before you hang yourself and I get you out of this company." "Sounds like a threat." "It is." "If you could scan the notes we had from the meeting last week and e-mail them to my assistant, that would be great." "Okay." "I'll get right on that, Ms. Ramos." "Please don't cc anyone on that." "Thank you." "Last few weeks, you've barely looked at me, Elena." "You and I are gonna be working together every day now." "Look, I know I wore my welcome out with you, Elena." "I ain't asking for any third or fourth chances." "I just hope that you and I can work together like we used to." "It'll never be the way it used to, John Ross." "I met this other woman before, but..." "Ms. Sutter." "It's great to see you again." "Thank you for flying me out here." "And first class." "I'll tell you, I felt so pampered," "I never wanted that flight to end, Mr. Ewing." "Please, sit." "Ms. Sutter was just filling me in on the conversations you had when you met her in des moines, and what she's going to testify to." "She truly is your secret weapon, Christopher." "Yes, she is." "No, I'm glad to be helping you get your annulment." "I'm also glad to be helping put the woman who stole my identity behind bars, so you can get custody of your kids once they're born." "But I'm worried about my brother." "I still haven't found Tommy." "And I think he's in hiding because of you." "If I help you, you need to promise you're not gonna try to put him in jail once he shows up." "I know you hate him, but he's just messed up because of our parents dying." "I know what he did to you, but he deserves a second chance." "Ma'am, that's not up to us." "I've watched enough "Law and Order"" "to know it's you he wronged and it's you who can press charges." "Now, I like Dallas, but I'm fine going home." "Your brother was her partner." "He stole from my family, tried to defraud me." "He deserves to be punished." "But my babies are what's most important right now." "I won't press charges." "I promise." "Then I'm your girl." "'Cause in all honesty, I would've been P.O.'d if I didn't get to confront that bitch in court." "You still have no idea who she is?" "No." "She legally changed her name to yours." "But once we've got her on the stand, we can compel her." "Now, I've arranged a car and hotel for you, but I think it's best for you to stay out of sight until the hearing." "Surprise attack." "I like that." "As much as I think I'm gonna like a first-class hotel." "Ohhhh." "It's more evocative than I even imagined it would be, Charlotte." "Angus really created something wonderful for your husband's new office." "Let me go see about having it delivered." "With a bow?" "Yeah." "Whatever perfume you're wearing, Annie, it's very seductive." "It's much better than that scent you wore when we were married." "That one was slightly feral." "What do you want, Harris?" "I thought we had nothing left to say to each other." "Fortunately for both of us, that's not true, Annie." "I found our daughter." "Emma's alive and well." "If you give me back that tape you made of me for Sue Ellen..." "I'll tell you where she is." "I know it must come as a shock to you, Annie, but I never stopped looking for our little Emma." "I've had private investigators looking for her for the last 20 years." "My God." "Where is she?" "That's just the rub, Annie." "You see, I know you think that tape you got of me confessing to money laundering is protecting Sue Ellen from having to kowtow to me, but I got to protect myself, too." "So you get me that tape, every copy, and I'll tell you where she is." "I don't believe you." "I had some DNA taken from Emma." "It's at an S.M.U. Lab." "Now, a test proves that she's my daughter." "I think you can tell just by looking at her, but you might want to run a DNA test, too." "Put your mind at ease." "And you got 48 hours to get me that tape, or I'll make sure that Emma goes back to being dead to you." "Ladies." "Well, you were right, John Ross." "That young lady you're interested in has become visible." "Why do you care whether your cousin gets an annulment or divorce?" "I've got a score to settle with my cousin, Clyde." "Hey, honey." "Annie?" "Annie, what's wrong?" "Honey." "Hey." "You told me to come to you when I was ready." "Well, I have something to tell you." "22 years ago I had a daughter." "Her name was Emma." "When Emma was 18 months old, I was at the state fair." "I turned away from her stroller to get a soda, just for a moment." "And when I turned back, she was gone." "Someone had taken her." "Everyone searched." "But Emma was never found." "I saw Harris this afternoon." "He told me he'd found Emma." "But before he'll tell me where she is," "I have to give him a tape I made of him admitting to laundering money." "I'm sorry I never told you." "Okay..." "How do you know what Ryland told you is true?" "What if he's making all of this up just to get back this tape that you made?" "Harris says he had his DNA checked against this young woman." "And that I should do the same." "Well, okay, then." "Let's get your DNA checked, Annie." "I'm so sorry." "Don't." "Nice and relaxed." "I like this." "I finally feel like everything's falling into place." "Lew says that having Tommy's sister testify will guarantee annulment, not divorce." "Rebecca gets nothing." "And it puts me one step closer to giving you the church wedding I always promised you." "I'm gonna walk you down the aisle the right way, with all your family from Mexico present, blessing us and cheering us on." "I love you." "I know." "And we can talk about anything, right?" "I hope so." "I felt uncomfortable with something that happened at the office today." "Well, you should never feel uncomfortable talking to me about anything." "I know." "But I thought John Ross was right, trying to vertically integrate." "Look, I'm gonna get Ricky Rudd to say yes to racing my car, and I'm gonna get that contract with the D.C.T., but I need a rig to guarantee a methane supply." "I'm sorry that you felt like you couldn't speak up today." "My speaking up wouldn't have mattered anyway." "You and Bobby own 60% of Ewing Energies." "I have 10%." "But I want to earn a bigger stake in this company." "I want to be your partner." "Not just in bed." "Well, I want us to be partners, too." "But you're gonna have to come up with something big." "Really?" "You got any ideas?" "Yeah, I might have a big idea." "Look what I got." "Come get them." "When I asked you what your first move was gonna be," "Ms. Barnes, I didn't expect it to be an extended vacation." "I needed to think, Frank, to regroup, to find myself again." "What you needed was to be back in Dallas." "To go over our strategy to make sure that Christopher Ewing does not get an annulment." "And that you take a piece of Ewing Energies in a divorce." "I stayed away longer to lull Christopher into a false sense of security, to make it harder for him to find out who I am." "But now I'm back." "It's time to make an entrance." "Good morning." "Good morning." "What's up with them?" "No se." "Ewing residence." "Slow down and I will pass him the..." "Si." "Rebecca's lawyer." "Even ruder than her." "She would like to see you." "Here's the address." "Please promise me that you will throw that descida serra in jail." "I plan to." "This is good." "She must be feeling cornered." "Otherwise she wouldn't be exposing herself this close to the annulment hearing." "She wants to make a deal." "I'll come with you, son." "Come in, Elena." "Mark..." "Thank you so much for seeing me on such short notice." "I know you're very busy." "Heck, I always make time for one of Scully's old students." "Guy got me my first job with Weststar back in the day." "I owe him everything." "So, you have some questions about some of our drilling sites?" "No, I'd like to talk to you about a couple of the fixed oil platforms your company has in the Gulf." "Actually, these four." "State records show you drilled them dry in the last six months." "You've got five years to seal up the Wells and tear down the rigs." "Giant pain in the ass, if you ask me." "Much better we should leave them for the seagulls." "And expensive." "To tear down each rig costs your company upwards of...$5 million?" "So what?" "You coming around with some petition you need me to sign that's gonna change the regulations?" "'Cause I'll sign it." "You don't even have to say, "please."" "No, actually, I'm here because I'd like to buy the four platforms from you." "You want to buy them?" "If you can get the seabed leases extended from the government and sign them over to me." "Well, all due respect, no matter what Ewing Energies thinks they've developed in the way of new drilling techniques, the seabeds underneath those rigs are bone dry of oil." "Now, from what Scully told me," "I thought you were a hell of a lot smarter." "Well, you can think whatever you want about me." "The fact is, I'm offering you what's probably the best deal of your career." "I'm offering to take full responsibility for decommissioning the rigs in exchange for the lease." "For you it's a win-win." "Christopher, are you sure this is the right address?" "Why the hell would Rebecca want to meet me here?" "Unless uncle Cliff's made some sort of move to her." "If this is one of his games..." "I assure you, it's no game, Mr. Christopher Ewing." "Mr. Robert Ewing." "Please follow me." "What the hell is going on, Rebecca?" "I should probably introduce myself." "My middle name is "Rebecca,"" "and as a little girl, that's what my mother called me." "But my father, he likes to call me by my first name..." "By my aunt's name..." "Pamela." "My full name is Pamela Rebecca Barnes." "Cliff Barnes is my father." "He's your what?" "I'm Afton's daughter." "I changed my name to Rebecca Sutter because of my father." "Because your crazy father is stuck in a feud that should've ended decades ago." "Because I knew the burden my name would be with your family." "Like it was with you and my aunt." "I fell in love with you, Christopher." "The truth is, I would've done anything for you." "But sadly, I think we're past any declarations of love we may have once had for each other." "So let's just get to the point." "I have no interest in money." "My father can buy and sell you many times over." "What I want is for my children to have a father in their lives." "I never did growing up, and I'm afraid that's made me do a great many stupid things in life." "Like conning me." "And lying to me." "Listen, I told you, you're never gonna see those babies." "I promise you." "I'd like to make you an offer." "I keep primary custody of the children, but you can see them every day." "You screw over my son and then you want to make an offer?" "You certainly are your father's daughter." "My father thinks..." "And I agree with him..." "That since we were married when you created Ewing Energies, that I should get a part of it." "I would like 30% of your ownership." "You must know that if we go to divorce court..." "Our marriage was a fraud and it will be annulled." "And an annulment will get you no part of my family's company." "I mean, the fact that you kept from me that you're Cliff Barnes' daughter proves that our marriage was a sham from the start." "If you don't take my deal now," "I will go to court and fight you with the full weight of my father's power." "And I think you know that destroying the ewings means everything to him." "You're out of your mind." "And you better come at me with everything you've got, because I'm gonna take you down." "This is about methane." "That's what Cliff's wanted all along." "That's why he put a mole in this family for two years." "You may all think this is about the methane, but believe you me, Barnes' plan is personal." "That's why his daughter is carrying those two Ewing heirs." "Barnes is gonna make a play for the company and he'll stop at nothing to get it." "Yeah, well, he's not going to." "My marriage is gonna be annulled." "We have a surprise witness, J.R., who will testify to Pamela Rebecca Barnes' intent to defraud." "This witness was present when Pamela brought Tommy on board for the con." "You think the legal system is gonna get Cliff Barnes?" "We should hire some roughnecks, take him for a long ride..." "J.R. If you ask me." "I'm just putting it on the table, Bobby." "Look, I know how you feel about me, but whatever we need to protect Ewing Energies and this family from Barnes, you let me know." "Your enemy is my enemy." "Get extra security at the office." "Then tell Roger to re-encrypt all the methane plans." "Get the research department to issue a set of bogus ones, just in case." "Watermarks on everything." "I'll call Ricky Rudd, get that car I left with him back in our possession." "Barnes is not gonna get anything from this family." "Tell me you got something I can use, Clyde." "Gotcha." "Hello?" "Yes, this is Ann Ewing." "I knew you'd come, Annie." "I got home and he was already here." "He told me." "I am so sorry, so very sorry to put you in this position." "But my baby's alive, Sue Ellen." "Where's my daughter?" "Where's my tape?" "Ladies, if I should find out there's more copies of this tape," "I guarantee that you will not be able to stand under the world of hurt that I will rain down on you." "Whatever you think you can ask me to do when I'm Governor..." "I won't do it." "Well, we'll see, Sue Ellen." "Being Governor just might change your outlook." "Power's an intoxicating thing." "Give me my daughter's address." "Go find your daughter." "If this isn't my daughter's address, Harris, believe me, I will send you to hell." "Hey, you guys know where Ricky is?" "Hey, Ricky, Mr. Ewing's here to see you." "Ricky." "So you didn't trust me to safeguard your car." "Is that it?" "Another company put a target on my patent, so I had to step up security is all." "It's not that I don't trust you." "Good, 'cause I dig your car." "If you still need a driver for your race, I'm in." "That's amazing, man." "Cool, let me take another lap." "It's all you." "The DNA was a match." "The call came while you were out, and I knew if I told you, you'd stop me." "So I got the tape from Sue Ellen and Emma's address from Harris." "Annie." "I would've handled Ryland." "I would've gotten your daughter back." "You don't negotiate with a terrorist." "Hate me later." "But right now, I need you to come with me." "Because I..." "I can't do it alone." "8 million walkers across the U.S." "Have raised more than $460 million..." "We're gonna get it, though." "I promise." "I know we will." "We'll make it for sure." "I know we will." "Thanks!" "Tomorrow at this time, you are going to be the new Governor." "That must feel so good." "I'll take care of this." "Thank you very much." "Medical examiner Dr. Varun Rasmussen of Dallas is resigning." "In a press conference today, Dr. Rasmussen told reporters that he could no longer sit in silence." "I had accepted a bribe from Sue Ellen Ewing to declare the death of marta del Sol..." "The woman her son had been accused of murdering..." "A suicide." "I can no longer sit in silence as the people of Texas continue to consider voting into office a woman who should rightfully be in jail for extortion, bribery, and obstruction of justice." "We caught up with chief of Sue Ellen's gubernatorial rival at his campaign headquarters." "Look, all I can say is I just hope the public will read the newspapers, watch TV, and get informed about what it is" "Ms. Ewing is accused of doing." "And then they'll make the right decision at the polls." "Senat..." "Excuse me." "We're looking for Emma." "Could we speak with her, please?" "Emma." "These people are here to see you." "Emma." "My darling girl." "I'm your mother." "I'm Ann." "I know who you are." "Thank God." "They told me you were gonna come see me." "But you've made a mistake, Ann." "I didn't want you to come." "I was hoping I'd never see you again." "Honey." "Come on." "Come on." "Let's go home." "We're gonna go home." "Annie, Annie." "Come on." "Come on." "Here we go." "Come on." "How the hell did you get up here?" "I am friends with everybody in Texas." "And I'd like to be friends with you, too." "So don't kick me out." "So, looks like you've moved up in the world, Rebecca." "Or should I call you..." "Pamela?" "I got to hand it to you." "I did not see that coming." "But..." "It makes it a hell of a lot more interesting." "What do you want, John Ross?" "I don't have to play weak anymore." "And trust me." "You don't want me setting my target on your back." "I am just fine with you keeping that target right where it's at." "In fact, that's why I'm here." "It turns out we're not so different, you and I." "We want the exact same thing." "To destroy Christopher..." "And Elena." "And make them hurt like they hurt us." "Yes, but you forget, we hate each other." "You blackmailed me." "I'd like to chalk that blackmail up to ambition." "And I think that I can use that exact same ambition to help you right now." "Let's help each other." "And when we're done, we take Ewing Energies." "I mean, that's what you wanted all along, right?" "Or is that what your daddy wanted?" "What could you possibly have to offer that would make me want to get in bed with you?" "You remember the real Rebecca Sutter." "She's Christopher's secret weapon." "But if you're in, she could be ours."
