" What's wrong?" " Nothing." "He's coming home." " Who's coming home?" " Gary." "Gary?" " Did you hear, J.R.?" " Yes, Mama, I heard." "I don't want anything to go wrong." "Honey, this is Gary." "My brother Gary." "How are you gonna handle two brothers?" "I don't have to handle two brothers." "I don't have to handle anything." "He's a loser, Sue Ellen." "If he wants something, he'll lose it all by himself." "No, he'll mess up this visit without any help from me." " That's not gonna help your game." " I'll be the one to decide that, Ellie." "We got 15 percent reduction in personnel." "I suggest termination of the old personnel before they have the chance to retire and collect the accrued retired benefits." "Now, destroy this tape and put the typed version in the red files." "J.R., five letters, water markers." "Buoys." "What did you say, J.R.?" "B-U-O-Y-S." "Buoys." "Thank you, J.R." "Thanks, Raul." "A sore loser." " Not too much, now, Pam." " She's okay, Jock." "The doctor said she shouldn't exert herself." "The exercise is good for her." "Oh, no, Jock, not again." "You haven't won a game since February." "March." "Out." "Out." "It felt good." " Like this song?" " I love this song." "Don't overdo it, now, Pam." " I'm fine." " Come on, Pam." "My daddy hasn't talked to me in weeks because of what he did." "That's not the whole story, and you know it." " No, it doesn't change the way I feel." " Come here." "Lucy, I bet you're real excited about that cattle auction tomorrow, aren't you?" "I used to love the cattle auctions." "My daddy used to take me." "You're kidding." "Grandpa Southworth?" "He must have felt about you the way Grandpa feels about Bobby." "When I was 4 or 5, and found out what the auctions were, I made a terrible fuss." "I didn't want them to sell any of the livestock." "Why did he take you?" "Seems to me it'd make it worse, you seeing them being sold." "No, because then pride took over." "Once we got there and I saw the other livestock and listened to the buyer, I swelled up." "The steer on my daddy's ranch was always the best in the state." "And the Ewings continue the Southworth tradition." "It's hard, but we try." "Well, I never did understand what Southworth saw in those steers but I do now." "They don't pay as well as oil, but, well, I don't know." "It just feels good, Ellie." "Be nice if you could share that feeling with your sons." "I'd love to, but Bobby has to go on that oil man's junket to Las Vegas." "And J.R. there, well, he don't care anything about ranching anyway." "Gary was always the cowboy among my sons." "He really loved this ranch, like I do." "Ever notice how quiet it gets when my daddy's name is mentioned?" "I wonder why that is." "Cold drink for you, my darling." "I bet J.R. would just love to go to that cattle auction with you." "I've asked him before, but he's always turned me down." "Well, that's because Ewing Oil takes up all of his time." " I think he'd really be interested." " I never knew that." " But, hell yes, I'd be glad to have him go." " Thank you, Jock." "J.R., I have great news for you." "Daddy's gonna take you to the cattle auction with him tomorrow." "Isn't that wonderful?" "Sue Ellen?" "Yes, my darling." "What was that all about?" "It's a wife's duty to come to the aid and the support of her husband." "Well, what's that got to do with a cattle auction?" "Your daddy's going to the auction and I should think that you'd wanna be by his side for a change." "Not around a bunch of cows, I don't." "Well, the surroundings are not important." " Listen, I got something to tell you." " No!" "You listen." "Now, you may not see what's going on around here, but I do." "Little brother Bobby is slowly taking away everything that you have." " I haven't lost a thing." " Yes, you have." "Bobby's in the business now." "And Mommy and Daddy have accepted that girl." "And ever since the miscarriage, they've become downright sweet to her." "They won't even let you say those funny little things about her you used to say." " That's temporary." " Well, maybe." "But every day, I see you losing your grip." "And if you're not gonna do something about it, then I will." "Are you finished?" "Sue Ellen, don't you ever try to tell me how to run my business." "Ewing Oil is bigger than it ever has been." "You know why?" "It's real simple." "It's because of me." "I got brother Bobby running errands so fast he hasn't even found the washroom yet." "I don't think he ever will." "So if you wanna keep sleeping between those satin sheets don't you ever try to tell me how to run my business." "Now, Bobby." " Well, now, what, honey?" " What's all this about Las Vegas?" "Oh, there's an oil men's convention there tomorrow." "You're going?" "Well, I know I promised I wouldn't go on the road anymore." "I was kind of saving it as sort of a surprise." "We're both going." "Well, there's Chi-Chi." " Hello." "How you doing?" " Hello." "Rex, you oil bandit, how are you?" "Good to see you." "If you don't need anything, check out the bar anyway." "Bobby, it's good to see you." "Lovely place." "How you feeling?" "Okay?" "Good enough." " Victor." " Bobby." "I can't believe your daddy would miss this shindig." "I'm telling no tales." "He's a dyed-in-the-wool rancher now." "Cattle have stolen his old oil man's heart." "Granddaddy, I wanna go to that Western store and see what they have down there." " Well, what about lunch?" " I'm not hungry." " You go ahead, sweetheart." " I'm hungry." "Thanks." "I'll see you in an hour." " Now, Lucy." " What?" "Suppose you see something you like." "You know at the Western store, you might wanna buy something." "Let's see, there's a couple hundred bucks." " Thanks." " Ray, go with her." " No, it's all right." " Go on." "Yes, sir." " Don't come with me." " I'm doing what your granddad said." "I heard him, but you're not coming with me." "I'm not going to the Western store." " Where are you going?" " It's none of your business." "You know, your granddaddy just happened to make it my business." "Leave me alone." "You know, you're fixing to get yourself into trouble, Lucy." "You don't know everything, so just get lost." "No." "If you don't, I'll tell Granddaddy about you and me." "Now, don't go start harping on that again, Lucy." "Try me." "Wouldn't Granddaddy just love to know about all those afternoons in the hayloft?" "I'll tell him I tried to stop, but that you wouldn't let me." "I'll tell him that you tried to make me go with you somewhere right now." "What's so important?" "I'll meet you back here in an hour." "It's not what you think." "Oh, I don't care." "I tell you, Bobby marrying Digger Barnes' daughter, that's one thing but that don't mean Jock's gonna stand for you taking up with Digger's nephew." "Then you make sure he doesn't find out." "Thanks." "Hi." "Hi." " You remember Jimmy." " Oh, sure, I do." "He brought you the last time." "How you doing, Jimmy?" "Good." "How about yourself?" "Can't complain." "Just let me clear these, and we'll take a little walk." "I'm gonna go get myself a hamburger." "I'll help you." " They look more like sisters, don't they?" " What?" "Val and Lucy." "They look more like sisters than they do mama and daughter." "Yeah." "Got it?" "We'll see you down at the casino, all right?" "Goodbye." "Enjoy yourself." "Well, honey, that's the last of them." "Almost." "One more good old boy." "I'll shake hands, and say goodbye." " Yeah?" " Got to clean up." "My wife and I are going to the pool right now." "Don't forget suntan lotion." "Can't you do this while we're out?" "The thought of this messy room would ruin my day." "I'm compulsive." " Now, listen, fella..." " Sorry, once I start, I can't stop." "Listen here, I just want you to get out and..." " Gary." " In the flesh." "Gary." "Pammy." "Pammy, I want you to meet somebody." "This is my wife." "Honey, this is Gary." " Hello, Gary." " Hello." "No, honey." "This is Gary." "My brother Gary." "You know, every time I look at that pretty face I can't believe how lucky I am I found you again." "Tell me about you and Daddy." "Oh, sugar, I've been telling you that same story for the last couple months." "Come on." "Okay." "Well, I was only 15 years old." "But you said you were 16 to get the job." "Right." "And in he comes, the prettiest man I ever saw." "He sat himself down and took a look at me." "You sure you wanna hear all this again?" "Yes." "And then you said, "What will it be?"" "He said, "I don't know." "What does a man in love eat for lunch?"" "I knew he was just flirting, but it was good flirting." "He made me feel like a lady." " He always did, didn't he?" " Always." "He was there when I got off work to walk me home." ""Miss Valene," he said, "I have the urge to ask you to marry me."" " What did you say?" " Well, nothing." "I didn't know what to say." "But he took that as a yes, and three days later, we got married." "Never even touched me." "He never even hardly kissed me till after." "A real gentleman." "It's a good thing too." "Because I would've been scared." "I mean, I..." "I was always a good girl." " The times that you saw him..." " He just came and went." "He was the dearest man I ever knew." "Every day I knew him." " Till he took me home to meet his family." " Yeah, I know that family." "He kept saying no and stalling." "But after you was on the way I made him take me home to meet them." "Well, that was the biggest mistake in my whole life." "Last thing they wanted was him being married to a nobody like me." "He just wasn't strong enough to stand up to them." "Especially to J.R." "I used to think I hated J.R. Ewing more than anybody." "But I didn't." "Not until now." "Anyway, there I was." "Gambled myself into 40, 50 thousand dollars debt a full-fledged alcoholic, no place to go." "So I did the only thing a real man could do." " What was that?" " I blacked out." "One day, I woke up, I looked in the mirror." "I'd been beaten to a pulp." "I didn't know who did it, but I'm sure I had it coming." "Later on that day, I discovered that I had lost two weeks." " I still don't know a thing about them." " Oh, Gary." "Anyway, I figured whoever worked me over would be back so I hightailed it out of town." " You came here?" " Eventually." " And you've been straight ever since?" " No." "I kept on trying, but I kept slipping back." "Took me a long time to lick it." " How did you do it?" " Got a job as a bartender." " You're kidding." " No, think about it." "You keep the stuff all in front of you there." "It's the only way." "And when you felt a gambling urge coming on?" "Same thing." "Came here and got a job dealing blackjack." "I love it." "I love it!" " You work here?" " In the Byzantine." "I knew the Lone Star oil men were here." "So I checked the junket list downstairs and when I saw your name on it, I came on up." "Suppose daddy's name would've been on that list." "I still might've come up." "J.R.?" "What do you think?" "Gary." "I think you and I have something in common." "Hey, come on, now, J.R.'s not that bad." "Oh, Bobby." "Mama, let's get a place together." " That'd be nice, wouldn't it?" " Maybe rent a little apartment." "Sugarplum, if your uncle knew we was even seeing each other he'd run us clean out of Texas." "Maybe even worse." "Imagine what he'd do if you left home to come with me." " We could go to another state." " I tried that when you was a baby." "He found us then." "You would just bet he'd find us now." "Maybe." "But you know, I told you how Bobby's married Digger Barnes' daughter." " He hasn't been able to break them up." " Just give him time, sugarplum." " Oh, but, Mom..." " No buts." "Let's just keep it like this, for the time being anyhows." "Then we'll see." "Okay?" "Okay." " I'll come back as soon as I can." " I'll be counting the days." "You take care, now." "And you too, Jimmy." "Lucy's still round-faced and rosy." "Long, golden hair and a smile that would melt rocks." " And, sweet Lord, is she sweet." " Oh, Bobby, she's a wildcat." "Pamela." "I'm sorry, but you're not describing the Lucy I know." "Everybody treats her like a china doll, and she's not." "She gets everything she wants and she got the Ewing temper and the stubbornness..." "And the Ewing spirit." "So far, I like her." " I thought you would." " Do you?" "Well, she'd hate to hear me say it, but I do." " I like her a lot." " Then I know I would." "Boy, oh, boy." " Bobby, who are you calling?" " My mama." "Who else?" "Tell her you're coming home." " Don't." " I don't get it." "I didn't say anything about going home." "Well, you looked us up, didn't you?" "That doesn't mean I'm ready for a family reunion." "Now, look at you." "You're fine." "You're solid as a rock." "Some rock." "I can just see old J.R. getting ready to pulverize me." "Gary, you're making a big deal out of nothing." "You haven't seen him in years, and time changes things." "Maybe a visit." "Oh, I don't know." "Anybody who can lick booze and gambling and Lord knows what else is not gonna have trouble with J.R." "You didn't get along." "That's all." "Look, he's not a monster." "He's family." "Let me think about it." "Oh, I gotta get going." " We're gonna see you for dinner, right?" " Sure." "Good to see you." "Bye-bye." " We'll see you at dinner." " Right." "Bobby, are you sure you know what you're doing?" "Honey, everything is gonna be fine now." "You know, sometimes I think you forget just how tough your family can be." "Don't forget what they did to Digger at the barbecue." "Now, honey, I love you, and you know how I feel about your daddy but I don't see that Gary is anything like Digger." "I hope not." "And now I'm gonna get into my swim trunks and burn myself to a crisp." "Oh, honey, Mama's gonna flip." "Gary was always her favorite." ""A Southworth among Ewings," she used to call him." "I'll see you downstairs." "Let me have a club soda with a twist of lime." "Oh, wait just a minute." " Hi." " Hi, Gary." " Where's Bobby?" " He got waylaid by some old friends." "He'll be along in a minute." " Would you like a drink?" " Yeah." "Vodka tonic." "Thank you." "Came on pretty strong, didn't he?" "Well, maybe." "But I've been doing a lot of thinking over the last couple years and I don't hate J.R. anymore, or my daddy." "But I don't need to see him again, ever." "And Mama?" "Well, I still miss Mama, but I can live with that." " But..." " Lucy." "The thing is, I'm an outsider with them." "Well, I know what that's like." "I live in that house." "They don't make it easy on outsiders." "Well, J.R., anyway." "But I think I can do it now, Pamela for a visit." "I'm not positive, but I think I can." "If you need another outsider to lean on, brother-in-law..." "Thanks, I just might." "Well, I'm sorry I'm late." "Took a little extra, but I got them." "You got what?" "Tickets for the three of us, home." "That's the third time I've had this happen." "Jock!" " Yes, Ellie?" " Jock!" " What's wrong?" " Nothing." "He's coming home." " Who's coming home?" " Gary." " Gary?" " He met Bobby and Pam in Las Vegas." "And they talked and..." "And, Jock, he's just fine." "And they're all flying home this morning." " Did you hear, J.R.?" " Yes, Mama, I heard." "So you just forget about the office this morning." "And, Sue Ellen, you won't wanna be going into town either." "Of course not, Miss Ellie." "Because I think we should all be here when he arrives." "I don't want anything to go wrong." "Nothing." "Do you hear, Jock?" "Whatever is done is done." "Leave it that way." "He's still our son, and your brother." "You give him what he needs to fit back in." "Don't go putting up walls, either of you." "Jock?" "Jock, did you hear me?" "What kind of a man do you think I am?" "My son's coming home." "I hardly know him." "I'm not thinking about putting up walls." "I'm thinking about tearing them down." "You ought to know that, Miss Ellie." "Well, isn't that exciting?" "Looks like you're going to have to get another office ready." "I don't think that'll be necessary." "Well, Lucy will be excited, anyway." "Lucky Lucy." "J.R., it's not even lunchtime yet." " Why do you think he's coming back?" " I don't know." "See Lucy, I guess." " He must want something." " He's not smart enough to want anything." "And if he does, not strong enough to ask for it." " Maybe he's changed." " I doubt it." "He's always weak." " Is that why you drove him away?" " I did not drive him away." "I tried everything in my power to keep him around here." "I had plans for him." "He was going to college." "I tried to annul that marriage to that trashy girl." "Only he left, and the girl stayed, right?" "Did not leave." "He flat ran out." "Left his wife here with that little baby." "A little baby that my mother had to raise, by the way." "He was scared of..." "I don't know what." "Always running away." "Every time there's any pressure, any time there's a responsibility:" "Out the door." "J.R." "How are you gonna handle two brothers?" "I don't have to handle two brothers." "I don't have to handle anything." "Now, he's coming for a visit." "He's my brother, and I'm happy about that." "But he's not gonna stay." "He's a loser, Sue Ellen." "Been a loser every day of his life." "If he wants something, he's gonna lose it all by himself." "No, he'll mess up this visit without any help from me." "You can count on that." " Ray, you in here?" " Yeah." "I'll be right out!" " I said, I was coming out." " Oh, that was before I came in." "Look at this, our old stomping ground." "Closed book." "Well, I've been thinking about reopening it, huh?" "What's the matter with that new little pal of yours?" "That Barnes kid?" "Monahan, not Barnes." "That's just the problem." "He's a kid." "Kid's just what you need." "How about a kiss, Ray?" "Come on, for old time's sake." "I told you I don't want no more of this, Lucy." "Not now, or ever." "You don't mean that, Ray." "What's Bobby and Pam doing home?" " Well, how's it look to you?" " About the same." "Who's that?" "Oh, Gary." "Gary." "Daddy." "Do you know who that is?" "Yeah, I know who that is." "Hello, Lucy." "Hi." "It's good to see you." "It's good to see you too, Daddy." "I tell you, Mama, he was wearing a busboy's uniform." "And I had this wild vision of one crazy busboy running around the entire hotel cleaning up all by himself." "I opened the door, and he charged in." "He was emptying glasses and cleaning up ashtrays." "I couldn't catch up to throw him out." "I was standing this close, and I didn't even recognize him." "Till I finally spun him around to chuck him out of there and looked at him, and there he was." "I don't think anybody wants to hear about this." "Yes, we do." "Gary, have you kept up with your riding?" "Lucy tells me you're the best in the county." "That's enough." "Let's cut out all this talk about bellboys and horseback riding and clear the air in this room." " Jock, no." "Bad enough during dinner, Ellie." "I can't stand any more of it." "Daddy, I don't think you can clear 16 years of air in just one sitting." "Sure we can, Bobby." "We'll take it simple." "Who did what to who?" "Who needs forgiving?" "Who needs to forgive?" "We can stand eyeball-to-eyeball." "And get it over with all at once." "If anybody wants to punch me in the mouth just stand up and do it right now." "That's enough, Jock." "No, I don't think what Daddy's saying is so bad." "Not in principle anyway." "And I'd like to start the ball rolling myself." " J. R..." " No, Gary." "It's gotta be said." "Now, I wanna thank you for coming here in such a generous spirit and allowing all of us to let bygones be bygones." "It's all right, J.R., it really is." "You hear that?" "You hear it?" "He was always the kindest-hearted of us all." "Welcome back, Gary." " Hey, Bobby." " You wanna share some of that, brother?" "Why, I don't know." "You were always a messy kid with milk down the front of your pajamas." "In case you haven't noticed, there's no buttons on the back of my jammies." "Yeah, I noticed." "All grown up and married." "Hey, remember the last time we did this?" "You never made me feel like a little brother." "You were the only one that took me seriously." "You and Mama." "Yeah." "I'd tell you about growing things and what to look for in fine cattle and..." "And about your drawings, your wanting to paint." "Yeah." "You still do that?" "No." "I lost the desire somewhere in a fifth of gin." "Well, you'll get it back." "Do anything you set your mind to." "Hi, Mama." "Do you know how I've longed to see you two like this again?" "The first time I found you here, Bobby was in his highchair and you were feeding him a graham cracker." "In my jammies with the buttons on the back." "I'll leave you two alone." " Good night, Mama." " Good night, Bobby." "Can I get you anything?" " You hungry?" " Oh, no, Mama, thanks." "Gary." "I've missed you so much." "All the time." " I'm glad I came home for a visit, Mama." " Not a visit, son." "You're home for good." "It's a miracle, your coming back." "And I'll be thankful for it until the day I die." "Daddy." "I've been looking all over for you." " What are you doing up so early, Lucy?" " I could hardly sleep." "Daddy." "I want you to take a drive with me somewhere." " Where to, honey?" " To Fort Worth." "Come on, please." "It'll be worth it." " Fort Worth?" " Come on." "We'll get the keys to the pickup from Ray Krebbs." "Mama." "Lucy, what are you doing here?" "Hello, Val." "It's him, Mama." "And he's still pretty." "Hello." "Aunt Maggie?" "What's wrong?" "What happened?" "Okay, where are you?" "No, I'll be right there." "Okay, bye-bye." " That Digger?" " Yeah, he's in the hospital." "How bad?" "Same as usual, I guess." "Except this time, they found him half-dead in the street." "I'll go with you." "Oh, no." "Bobby, I love you, but if he sees you there, it's only gonna make it worse." " I'll call you in a while, okay?" " Okay." "She's so nervous." "That shows how much she still cares, right?" "I think it shows how nervous she is." "How did you ever find her?" "She found me." "A couple months ago, she started coming up to the school, waiting around outside." "I don't know." "For some reason, I just knew that that lady was there to see me." "So one day, I went up to her and started talking." "Daddy, is Mama gonna come back to the ranch with us?" "Oh, I don't know, sweetheart." "I don't think I can convince her." "I'm not even sure I should try." "You go sit down." "I'll take over." "Pete relieved me in self-defense, I think." "Excuse me." " Just such a shock." " For me too." "She wouldn't tell me where we were going." "Well, you didn't look shocked when you came in." "Well, I sort of figured it out on the way in from the ranch." " You're at the ranch?" " For a while." " How is it?" " Not bad." "In fact, it's good." "I'm amazed." "You look terrific, Val." "Same as ever." "When did you turn liar?" "You never was one before." "I'm still not one." "Lucy wants you to come back to the ranch with us." "No." "No way." "I'm sorry." " It'd mean an awful lot to her." " Yeah, and to J.R." "I don't think so." "Oh, Gary, now, you can't believe that he's changed that much." "I do." "But even if I didn't, I..." "I've seen how Mama and Daddy keep him in line." "Yeah, I know." "Lucy's told me that." "Look, Val." "You and I..." "We got a lot to talk about." "And I can't do it here." "If you came back to the ranch with us, the three of us could spend some time." "No, Gary, don't." "I don't blame you for not wanting to." "We were kids then." "It's all changed now." "It'd mean so much to Lucy, even for a while." "I..." "I..." "I just don't know." "Mama, you're gonna come back to the ranch with us, aren't you?" "Please?" "Daddy." "It's settled, then." "I'll call home, and tell them we're coming." "Can we make it a surprise?" "Call, Gary." "The idea is to foreclose on that boy before retirement." "We don't want him to get into litigation with the church." " Where's Gary and Lucy?" " Coffee, Miss Ellie?" "Don't know." "Ray said they took the pickup and went off down the highway." "Don't worry about it, Ellie." "He probably went to see some of his old hangouts." "Probably." " Bobby." " Hi, Daddy." "Where's Pam?" "She went to see her Daddy." "It's pretty bad." "He's in the drunk ward." " Same old Digger Barnes, huh?" " That's right, Daddy." "The same old Digger Barnes who had the guts to come here to try to bury the hatchet and left drunk and broken because of you." "The same Digger Barnes who won't see Pamela let alone talk to her!" " That's enough!" " Miss Ellie, telephone." " Thanks, Raul." "I don't know why Bobby has to be so hostile." "Hell, my son's got a right to defend his wife and her family, even from me." "As long as he's got the guts." "Jock." "That was Gary." "He and Lucy are with Lucy's mama." " What?" " How did they ever find her?" " Lucy's been meeting her." " Well, I'll put a stop to that quick enough." "No." "No, they wanna bring her here." "Now." "I told that girl never to set foot in Texas again." "Come on, J.R., can't you forget the past?" "Never means never, Bobby." "I told them to bring her here." "Jock, I want my family together again." "From what I saw last night, Gary's got a good, level head on his shoulders." "If he thinks it's okay to bring her here, it's okay." "Well, I thought this was just supposed to be a visit." "Not anymore." "He's here now with my other boys." "With his daughter." "He's gonna bring her here?" "She's nothing but a tramp." "Lay off, J.R. If Gary wants her here she's got just as much a right to be here as anybody, including you." "Well, that seems to be the unanimous opinion around here." "So be it." "Tom, what's the name of that company I asked you to liquidate?" "Q  R, makes those byproducts." "I want you to reactivate it, and rework the books so that Q  R looks like the IBM of Texas." "And get the books out here just as soon as you can." "Now, Mr. Ewing, I..." "I don't think I heard you right." "Now, that company's a loser." "Fine, fine." "I found just the loser to run it." "What are you gonna do about Gary?" "I'm gonna do just what my family wants me to do." "Become just what they want me to become." "And what exactly is that?" "My brother's keeper." "Subtitles by SDI Media Group" "[ENGLISH]"
