" He has Tommy's cellphone." "So?" "There's a voicemail on there that proves I knew about the con." "That's unfortunate." "For you." "What's unfortunate for you is that there's another voicemail on there that sounds a lot like you threatening my brother's life." "I didn't hurt Tommy." "You need to believe that." "No, what I need to believe is that you're gonna hand me a million dollars cash to go somewhere Christopher can't find me." " Your price has gone up."

"There was a voicemail that Christopher Ewing played for me from you to Tommy Sutter where you said... if he pushed you one more time, he'd be sorry."

" Yes." "Tommy had hit me." "And when Chris found out, he threatened to hurt Tommy." "Hmm." "Well, I think that's all the questions I have." "Of course." "Whatever help I can be." " Hey." " Hey." "I was right." "My brother came back for a reason." "He wants to drill on the land my Dad died on." " There's no oil there." " I know, but this isn't about facts." "Then what's it about?" "He wants to prove that my Dad didn't die drilling a dry hole." "He still feels guilty about his death." "Just because Drew was there when your father died doesn't make it his fault." "No, but he thinks it's his fault that he didn't save him." " He was a kid." " It doesn't matter." "And I'm scared that there's a part of Drew that thinks it's his destiny to drill on that land until he either strikes oil, or..." "Or what?" "We need to get Becky out of town."

"It is, but we have to sidetrack around it, which is gonna cost us more money than we have right now." "I was hoping to get some cash from my share of Ewing Energies so that I could pay for those costs rather than come to you for more money." "That's not your decision to make." "It's time that you started treating my interests" " as something more than just a hobby." " This isn't a hobby." "Sue Ellen, I'm not sure where all this anger is coming from, but if this is about something more personal, then we should talk about it." " John Ross and I ..." " You broke his heart." "He'll heal."
