"Well, that's fine, unless you mind everybody else thinking you're a lesbian." "I wore pants because I tripped over a keg in the ladies' room at Boobylicious and I bruised my shin on a toilet." "What a pretty story." "Let's just go worship, okay?" "Open-toed shoes?" "Oh, my God." "No." "We're going in the side door." "No." "No!" "Amanda!" "Oh!" "Check out the caboose on Laura Vaughn's mama." "Landry?" "Watch the locker-room language, please. (Swats side)" "A bun-ular display like that is precisely why a lady never wears pants in church." "Hey, hey." "Don't be so hard on him, kitten." "Well, I won't have both my men being obsessed with Amanda." "I'm not obsessed with Amanda." "I'm obsessed with finding out what's going on with her dead husband." "I know, I know." "Could he still be alive?" "How can we find out?" "Be a little more friendly to her, get her to drop her guard so you can get in behind enemy lines." "(Car horn plays "The Yellow Rose of Texas") Who's that dude?" "That is Carlene's uncle Burl." "He's been gone for two years distributing millions of Bibles to folks in the third world countries." "Oh, he's a missionary?" "Well, not exactly." "He's been doing it from his yacht, but he's one of the finest, kindest people you'd ever hope to meet." "His wife Bitsy is not." "Gigi, come over here and break my neck." "(Laughs)" "(Both laugh)" "Oh, Burl!" "Welcome back." "Dallas hasn't been the same without you." "You either, Bitsy." "Gigi." "Let me look at you." "So brave." "I'm just dying to see everybody." "Now Bitsy and I were thinking about throwing together some kind of hootenanny at the ranch." "Over my dead body." "I'm throwing your homecoming party." "(Bitsy and Burl laugh) I wouldn't have it any other way." "Excuse me, ma'am." "Any chance I might squeeze in here?" "I didn't realize I broke a commandment." ""Thou shalt not wear slacks to church."" "Oh, yeah." "Tradition dies hard around here." "You know, I consider myself a strong, very secure, independent woman." "Fierce, even." "Mm-hmm." "So why can a little bit of criticism from my mother still slam me so hard?" "'Cause she matters, and deep down, you care." "I gotta go work the booby brunch shift..." "(Chuckles) and find my keys." "Me and my heathen slacks are slipping out of here." "Don't judge me." "Mm." "Hey." "Get back here." "What?" "Come on." "Girl, ain't nobody drives a pair of pants like you do." "I need your opinion about something." "You remember Westward Ho!" "Jeans?" "Yeah, vaguely." "Mama used to wear 'em when I was a kid." "Cricket's daddy's company discontinued the line about 25 years ago, but I've decided to relaunch the brand." "Whatcha think?" "I used a designer from "Project Runway."" "Truthfully?" "No, please, lie. 'Cause it's a $25 million investment." "I would like it to fail." "All I can say is that it's harder for a woman to find the right pair of jeans than it is to find the right man." "You know, a girl wants comfort and a cut that accentuates her assets." "They're just too busy, and, like, if that embroidery on the zipper is a tongue, that's just gross." "Well, you need to come work with me, consult." "That's so flattering, but I don't have any fashion design experience or resume." "Yeah, well, guess what?" "I'm the boss and I don't care." "Blake, that sounds amazing, but..." "Cricket's also the boss, and I'm pretty sure she even blames me for her acne in high school, so... (Chuckles) she won't like it." "Well, you know what?" "I'll handle Cricket." "My office, tomorrow, 9:00." "I want to relocate my company from Seattle, but we're just having trouble finding the right piece of land here." "A 500-acre chunk just came up in Alabama." "I have to go check it out." "Andrew, you can't check out of Texas." "We aim to keep you around." "(Chuckles) You just tell me what you're looking for, and I will deliver it to you on a silver platter." "Sharon, Zack." "How's it going?" "Pastor Tudor." "I thought our sermon was so on point, about how we have to beware of people who look all nice and cuddly on the outside, but on the inside they're just selfish and awful." "It really... hit... home." "O... okay." "I'm looking forward to your next counseling session tomorrow." "Yeah, me, too." "A lot." "Can't wait." "Ever since you encouraged her last week to "speak in truth,"" "she hasn't shut up, and it seems the truth is" "I can't do anything right, never have, never will." "Now I have worked my butt off to provide her with everything." "(Singsongy) I am the one that is working her butt off." "With everything." "Oh, well, clearly not enough, 'cause it's big... (gasps) Hey, hey!" "Flag on the play!" "Get... (Mutters)" "Listen, I don't think counseling can wait till tomorrow." "You two need a reality check." "Separation." " What?" " Separation?" "An in-house separation." "You're not appreciating what the other's bringing to the marriage." " Well, I mean, you try feeding..." " You know how hard I work..." " ...this human garbage disposal for 17..." " ...to sell Lamborghinis in this economy?" "No." "I... time-out." "Zack." "You look after Mckinney." "You're in charge of the house, the cooking, and the cleaning." "Well, how do I know what to tell the maid to do?" "I don't even know her last name." "You're gonna give the maid the week off." "This way, you'll appreciate what Sharon does." "Sharon?" "Mm-hmm." "All you do is take care of your family." " You need some, uh, outside interests." " Mmm." "Broaden yourself." "Get out and try to find a job... (Scoffs) ...so you'll get a grip of what Zack's up against." "Job?" "How?" "I mean, my only job experience is teaching debutantes how to do the Texas Deb..." "Well... no skills." "Swing by the church tomorrow." "I'll..." "I'll find something for you to do." "This exercise will work." "Okay?" "Try it." "For me?" "Whatever you say, pastor Tudor." "God be with you." "And with you." "(Laughs)" "Ha!" "(Gasps)" "Blake just told me the good news." "(Laughs nervously) (Laughs)" "(Inhales sharply)" "I hope you are as excited as I am." "Oh, thanks." "I'm looking forward to it." "I'll see you then." " Hey!" "I see Cricket already found you." " Yeah." "I was just welcoming her to the apparel division of Caruth-Reilly." "(Chuckles)" "Oh, this is gonna be great." "You'll be just down the hall from me... just a few feet away, within spittin' distance." "(All chuckle)" "Yeah."

"D... did he look like himself?" "Yes." "Why, Carlene?" "Oh, I'm just curious." "I'm always looking for ways to appear more lifelike." " Okay." " Thank you." " Thank you." " Bye." "Vodka rocks." "Darling, for your costume to work, stay close." "People are asking if you came as a librarian." "Laura Bush was a librarian." "Shall we start the toast soon?" "Um, I need to speak before Burl does. (Chuckles)" "I have a large and very surprising announcement to make." "Should I have made this a double?" "A triple." "We're going back on the yacht, leaving Dallas for good." "You know Burl's not up to a trip like that." "Would you have him die away from his home?" "No." "Away from you, my dear." "Don't think I don't see how you two look at each other." "It's been going on since we were debutantes." "Little knowing glances, the in-jokes, the... kiss on your back porch." "That is not what you think it was." "At least now I know why he really wanted to come back to Dallas." "Obviously, you are number one on his bucket list." "The welcome home is now a bon voyage." "Kitten, I would hate for you to think of me as a villain." "Oh, honey, I don't." "We can't forget that staying on the path is sometimes better than a shortcut." "(Lowered voice) Bill Vaughn is definitely dead." "(Lowered voice) How do you know?" "Amanda told me." "She I.D.'d the body and everything." "Now no matter what we lost to that man, let's just put it behind us." "It's not healthy for our marriage, even though all that fighting makes the making up so much more fun." "You know," "I still got that Roy Rogers outfit across the street." "Maybe, uh, later, Dale Evans would like to ride trigger." "(Gasps) Ripp Cockburn!" "(Laughs)" "Carlene, darling." "Just who I was hoping to see." "Excuse me, uncle Burl." "Ripp." "(Lowered voice) I got news for you." "(Whispers) Yeah." "I pawned that land of ours off on some Internet fool from Seattle willing to pay twice what it's worth." "But... (Sighs) what about my condos for Christian living?" "Darling, I had my lawyers look into that project." "You'd be breaking 17 federal statutes." "However, we might be able to finagle something across the border in unincorporated Juarez." "(Rick Trevino's "Better in Texas" playing)" "Thank you, uncle Burl." "Thank you." "(Chuckles) Anything for my favorite niece." "Mwah. (Chuckles)" "(Sips)" "When you flip me around like that... (Speaks indistinctly)" "♪ I left my heart down in Mexico ♪" "♪ some señorita not so long ago ♪" "♪ who I thought about ♪" "Well, congratulations, y'all." "I just heard someone made a big old land purchase right here in our fair city." "That must have been a nice little commission for you." "Actually, I earned a big commission... very big." "Oh, nice earrings." "Guess you earned those, too?" "You know, I love your Dale Evans and the horse you rode in on." "And I love your Selena." "Someone shot her, right?" "♪ Now I know everything is better here in Texas ♪" "She seems nice." "♪ Dancing the floor in helotes ♪" "Who the heck are you?" "My favorite Texan... me." "(Chuckles)" "I love Laura Bush, but her get-up was depressing me." "(Lowered voice) What would you say if I told you that the whole time Cricket was rallying around my idea, she was secretly behind all the protests at "Westward Ho!"?" "She wanted to keep me from working with Blake so bad, she was willing to fall on her own corporate sword... even worse, disappoint her father." "(Lowered voice) Well, on the one hand, I'd say it's psychotic." "(Exhales deeply) On the other," "I'd say it's not the craziest thing a jealous woman ever did." "Mama, can you keep a secret?" "Blake and Cricket don't have a traditional marriage." "She wouldn't be jealous of another woman." "Trust me." "(Whispers) Oh." "So they do have a white marriage." "I'd always wondered." "(Whispers) What's a white marriage?" "(Lowered voice) It's when the husband and wife keep their boots on the opposite side of the bed, if you know what I mean." "(Lowered voice) Well, if that's Cricket and Blake's arrangement, why does she care about me?" "Because... their relationship is based on a deep friendship." "From Cricket's point of view, you are threatening to her." "Trust me, I know." "What's going on with you and Bitsy?" "I thought you two were playing nice." "Well, I tried, until she got the impression that I was moving in on Burl." "(Chokes)" "She's taking him away from Dallas, you know." "Trying to get him away from my "clutches."" "I thought you said he wasn't well enough to travel." "Mama, what are you gonna do?" "I don't know." "I'm in the same spot as you." "He's not my husband." "You know, sometimes the best thing you can do... (Bitsy coughs) is just say a prayer and step away." "Damn." "That Bitsy Lourd is evil." "There's a special place for a woman like that." "(Thud)" "Oh, honey." "Thank God you're here." "Can you order me a gin and... well, what happened to your Anna Nicole costume?" "Well, that was your idea for my costume, but I had a different one." "So now you're some... pink lady?" "I'm not just "some" pink lady..." "Mary Kay." "The porn star?" "She's not from Texas." "Mary Kay Ash, the founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics... a strong and independent Texas woman." "I feel like this is one of those times where you're trying to tell me something but you aren't saying it." "I'm gonna say it, Zack, loud and proud." "Oh, Lord." "Remember tonight when you said that you underestimated me?" "Well, I have underestimated myself." "I conquered building a shelf, which made me realize that there is more that I want to conquer." "So what does that mean?" "Stand on up and get your own drink." "Oh, and I'm keeping my job at the church." "(Gasps)" " Pastor Tudor." " Oh!" "Sorry about that, Sharon." "Wouldn't want to ruin that great Mary Kay Ash costume." "Why, you noticed, you king of the wild frontier." "How could I not?" "My mama earned a pink Escalade." "(Gasps)" "(Blake and Cricket laugh)" "Hey, there she is!" "Just in time for a toast." "To Westward Hosannah!" "You're gonna keep us bandits flush with cash for a long time." "(Laughs) It will feel like an eternity." "(glasses clink)" "(Laughs) Actually, I wanted to talk to you both..." " Mm." " ...to thank you for the opportunity." "Unfortunately, I can't stay on." "You what?" "Whatever do you mean?" "This just isn't my calling." "Besides, you two work so well together." "I just feel like I'm gettin' in the way." "Thank you again." "I know it's gonna be a huge success." "Don't be blue." "I know you liked working with her, but... look on the bright side." "At least you still get to work with your best friend." "(Chuckles)" "What do you say we pick some ribs clean?" "Yeah, let's do it." "(Chuckles)" "(Clears throat)" "(Clatter)" "Bitsy?" "Bitsy dear?" "Oh, dear."
