- What do you want? - More.
Get the hell out of Dallas while you still can.
It's not over yet, J.R.
Why are you so determined to get J.R.?
Ewing Oil will be stripped of its state charter.
And the satisfaction of J.R.'s knowing I helped put him away.
Oh. I'm going to get him. J.R.
- One way or another. - I'll kill you first.
You're gonna have to. Because I'm going to get him!
- You're never going to get him. - You make me sick.
Keep out of my way. Pamela. Or I'll destroy you.
I'll destroy anybody that tries to take my boy away from me.
And we got two men at the front gates.
Two more on the back 40. I think.
I want the rest of your men to patrol the fences.
I don't want any newspaper or TV people on Southfork, hear?
Yes. Sir. I plan to be up at the house myself with a couple men just in case.
- Good. All right. - Boys. Let's set up that fence patrol.
- Hello? - ./.R.?
Oh. Hello. Mama. Are you calling from Paris?
Yes. I've been reading about Ewing Oil in the newspapers.
What's going on over there?
Oh. Nothing I can't handle.
What's it say in the papers?
Well. They're talking about investigating Ewing Oil over that counterrevolution.
- Has Daddy seen it? - No. And he's not going to if I can help it.
Now, what's happening over there?
Oh. Just Cliff Barnes stirring up a lot of trouble again.
I told Bobby he shouldn't hire him. Take him to Austin.
Is there anything more to it than that?
Nope. Mama. It's just a pack of lies. I swear it.
I had nothing to do with that counterrevolution.
Well, what's gonna happen?
I'm going down to Austin. Talk to a couple of my friends down there and...
- see if we can't get the thing dropped. - Can't Bobby help?
Hell. He won't lift a finger to help his own brother.
J.R.. that can't be true.
I'm afraid it is.
Mama. I don't want you to worry about this...
and like you said. I don't want Daddy to worry about it.
Well. I'm going to do my best to keep it from him.
But. Now. J.R.. you keep in touch. Let me know what's happening.
I will. I'll take care of everything. Don't you worry.
All right. J.R. Bye-bye.
Please. Dusty. Just do it my way.
I think you're wrong. Sue Ellen. I am tired of you running away from J.R.
This time let's go out to the ranch and face him down together and tell him...
that you're gonna leave.
Don't you understand that I'm never gonna get my son out of Southfork?
Aren't you overlooking the courts? They tend to rule for the mother in most cases.
Even if she left her husband for another man?
Sue Ellen. I lost you once because of your child.
I'm not going to let it happen again.
It won't happen.
It just isn't the right time yet.
Then when?
J.R. has to go to Austin.
And if I know him. Like I know him...
he's going to arrive long before the hearing. Just to bribe someone.
And when he's gone. Then I'll go to Southfork and get my son.
It's the only way we can do it.
And then we'll all go to the Southern Cross together.
Because there is no way he can get to you there.
You don't know J.R. like I do.
His son is very important to him.
More important than I am. And he'll stop at nothing to get him back.
And I'm afraid that I would just be involving both of you.
I don't know the man. That's true.
But I know of him.
I know how he bullies and threatens. But this time it won't work.
We can hire all the lawyers he can. Our resources run just as deep as his.
If he wants a fight. That's what he'll get.
Thank you. Dad. I knew I could count on you.
- One question. Sue Ellen. - Yes?
Do you think that J.R. was behind the counterrevolution?
I'd stake my life on it.
- Why'd you ask that? - If the Senate committee...
finds against him and recommends prosecution...
he could be stripped of Ewing Oil. Not to mention a likely jail sentence.
Now. I don't think that the court...
would turn the child back to him under those conditions.
You're absolutely right.
All I have to do is get John Ross out of Southfork.
I'm not surprised to see you here in Austin.
Well. Senator. We've had a very friendly relationship in the past.
I know that. And I've treasured our relationship.
And our campaign contributions.
But the point is, you're in a position now to return those favors.
I mean. After all. You are the chairman of the committee.
All the more reason I'm in a delicate position.
Now. You know I'd never ask you to compromise your position.
You know me better than that.
What is it you do want?
Well. I'm going to have to prepare my defense...
and I'm entitled to see...
the evidence you have against me. I mean. Just the copies. You understand.
Now. J.R.. you know a Senate hearing isn't like a court trial.
You're not entitled to any of our information.
Well. Nevertheless. I want to see it.
I just can't do it, even if I wanted to.
- And why not? - Well. The truth is. The Justice Department...
has sent some men down here. They're going to be at the hearing.
Now. If we find against you. They may step in and hold you for federal trial.
And if they were to find out that you knew what we had...
well. Hell. I wouldn't want them to find out it was me that supplied you.
Is this the last word you have on the subject?
I'm sorry. J.R.
That's all I can do.
Well. I'm sorry too. Senator. I'm going back to Dallas now.
I'll be in touch before the hearing.
Oh. And I'll also be in touch before the next election.
- Mr. J.R. Ewing? - Yeah.
Here you are. You've just been served a subpoena...
ordering you to appear before the select committee on legislative inquiry.
Good afternoon. Ewing Oil.
Louella, this is J.R. I'm still in Austin.
How you doing. J.R.?
I want you to drop everything you're doing. Find Claude Brown no matter where he is.
Tell him to get out of the country right now.
- Yes. Sir. - Mrs. Louella Lee?
Look. I'm busy. Can you please talk to Phyllis?
This is for you.
You've just been subpoenaed. All the details are contained in the subpoena.
Subpoenaed?
- Hi. - Hi.
- Did Bobby call? - A couple of hours ago.
He said he'd reach you at home tonight.
- How did he sound? - Tired.
This investigation is worrying him to death.
Pam. Why don't you take a few days off. Fly down to Austin.
I can take care of things here.
Oh. I know you could. Jackie.
I'm just afraid my being there would complicate things for him.
Well. If you change your mind. The offer stands.
Thanks.
Good afternoon. Ewing Oil. May I help you?
Yes. This is Mrs. Ewing. Is Louella there, please?
No. Ma'am. She left about an hour ago.
Someone served her with a subpoena.
Today?
And what about J.R.?
She talked with him just before she left. She said that he was still in Austin.
- Did he say when he'd be back? - Oh, no, Mrs-Ewing.
Any messages if I should hear from him?
No. No. No. I'll try to reach him down there. Thank you very much. Goodbye.
He's in Austin. I can get John Ross tonight.
Come in. Leslie.
I'm delighted to see you.
The pleasure is all mine.
When I read this morning's paper. I had a feeling I might hear from you today.
Not the sort of headlines to build an image around.
Oh. I think it's safe to say that the Ewing image is a disaster.
Where does that leave you?
Looking for higher ground.
And do you think Westar could help you?
It's my impression that there's no love lost on your part for Ewing Oil or J.R.
So I assume you'd like to see the Senate investigations go against the Ewings.
And if they were true?
I have in my possession certain...
evidence that ties J.R. to the counterrevolution.
I have the proof that he financed it.
Which you intend to present to the Senate committee.
For the right price.
Well. Let me guess.
You would like Westar to become your client.
I have many valuable and specialized services to offer.
I'm sure you do.
Before we could reach an agreement. I would have to see some evidence.
Naturally.
Why don't you drop by my apartment and have a drink this evening?
I'll have the contracts drawn.
When you see the evidence. I'm sure that you will be delighted to sign them.
Fine. Leave your address with my secretary. I'll be by tonight.
All right.
Just for my own personal curiosity. Jeremy.
Why are you so determined to get J.R.?
Surely you can't take over Ewing Oil even if he's in prison.
If J.R. is prosecuted and found guilty...
Ewing Oil will be stripped of its state charter.
The biggest independent oil company in the Southwest will simply cease to exist.
That's less competition for Westar.
And the satisfaction of J.R.'s knowing I helped put him away.
This hand first. Okay. We're going bye-bye.
- Go bye-bye. - Bye-bye. Yes.
You know... Oops. You help me.
You know. John Ross, when you and Mama go to Southern Cross Ranch...
you're going to be so happy.
Mama's going to buy you all new clothes and new toys.
This arm. Now that arm. There we go.
There. You look mighty handsome.
Ready to go bye-bye. Huh? Okay. Here we go.
Bye-bye.
- When did she get back? - About a half-hour ago.
Sue Ellen.
Where you 905719?
I'm going for a drive.
I called the office from the airport. Phyllis said she had talked to you.
Told you I was down in Austin.
- So? - So why are you going for a ride...
with John Ross at night when you thought I'd be away?
- I'm going. - Not with my son. You're not.
I'm leaving you. J.R.
And I'm taking him with me.
The hell you are.
How long do you think you can stop me?
You're going to have to stand trial. And I'm going to get him then.
- You're never going to get him. - And if you go to prison?
You can't stop me.
You think a court is going to let a criminal have his son?
Oh. I'm going to get him J.R. One way or another.
Get her out of here! Get her off Southfork. Never let her back on!
- Come on. - You can't have him. J.R.
Because I'm gonna have him!
- I'll kill you first. - Well. You're going to have to.
Because I'm going to get him!
- I'm going to get him! - Your mama's crazy. Boy...
- trying to get you away from me. - He's her child. J.R. He belongs with her.
Stay out of my affairs, Pamela.
Give her her child. She loves him.
She doesn't know the first thing about love.
She should have him just for putting up with you.
He's the only decent thing that's ever happened to her.
No wonder you care so much for Sue Ellen. She's just like your mother.
Another drunken slut who ran away.
You slime.
You make me sick.
Keep out of my way. Pamela. Or I'll destroy you.
I'll destroy anybody that tries to take my boy away from me.
- Morning. Ladies. - Good morning.
J. FL.
Well.
Kristin. What a pleasant surprise.
It's nice to see you too. J.R.
Why don't we go in my office. Have a little talk.
Hold my calls.
What ill wind blew you into Dallas?
I thought we had a deal.
The baby's just fine. J.R. Thank you for asking.
He looks just like his daddy.
- What do you want? - More.
- Do you. Now? - I'm tired of your little monthly checks. J.R.
I picked up some very expensive habits in California. And I want you to pay for them.
This is not the time to try to negotiate with me. Kristin.
Well. Now. I think it's the perfect time.
Judging from what I read in the papers. You're making the headlines everywhere.
Poor Jock and Miss Ellie.
They must be shattered.
Think of how they'd feel if they read about a paternity suit on top of everything else.
All right. But you gotta give me time.
I can't pull too much out of the bank right now.
Don't take too long. J.R. I'm not very patient.
You'll be hearing from me real soon. Where can I call you?
I'll call you. J.R.
Somehow. I'd feel safer that way.
Don't take too long. Now.
Oh. And give my love to Sue Ellen.
Pick it up. Ray. Pat and the boys are on their way down here.
You're in an awful good mood today. Punk.
I got a right to be. I just signed the contracts on the development today.
Ten o'clock tomorrow morning. We meet at the bank and put the money in.
Well. That's great. I'm very happy for all of you.
We're going to make a fortune on this one.
You know. Ray. Pat and I kept a pretty close eye on you during all this.
Yeah. For good reason. I guess I was in over my head a couple of times.
You sure were.
But the main thing is. Is that you hung in there.
You plugged away.
No reason why you're not going to learn all you need to know about this business.
Thanks. I appreciate that. Punk.
Matter of fact. Pat and Bo and I. We think a lot of you.
We want you to join us.
We've decided to let you buy a point from each of us.
You're not serious.
I sure am.
We're offering you 3 percent of the deal.
Same money we paid for it. A million dollars a point.
Three million dollars?
I don't know where I can get my hands on that kind of money.
I don't mean to get out of line. Ray...
but you mean to tell me you and Donna can't put that kind of money together?
Well. Sure. Donna's got the money. But...
Well. Wouldn't Donna want you in on a deal like this?
I mean. After all. This would show the other Ewings that...
you're not just a ranch foreman.
Well. I know that it'd sure make Jock happy to have you in on this.
Yeah. It'd sure do that, all right.
J.R.. I'm very flattered that you want me to defend you.
Yeah. You're the best. Emmett. And I need the best.
But from what you've told me. There's no way even I can help you.
You don't know what they're accusing you of. Now. How can I prepare a defense?
Well. What am I supposed to do?
Whatever it takes.
You have to find out what evidence they have against you.
Dave. This is Ray.
How's things in Washington?
Fine, Ray.
Is Donna there?
No. She's not. She and Luanne drove down to Virginia today.
Some big social event.
They'll probably spend the night.
Is there any way at all I can get in touch with her, Dave?
- Well, is it urgent? - Sort of.
I don't know. Ray. I don't expect to hear from them till tomorrow.
Well. All right. Thanks.
- I'll try and reach her tomorrow. Then. - Okay.
If she checks in. I'll tell her you called.
Mr. Morgan. Please. This is Ray Krebbs.
Mike. How are you?
Good. Listen...
you know that joint account that Donna and I have?
I'd like you to draw up a certified check for $3 million...
to be made payable to Unified Development Company.
Yeah. Yeah. I know. It's a great deal.
Before 10:00 tomorrow.
Oh. Great. All right. I'll see you then.
- Hey. - Hey yourself.
- Don't you ever go home? - Sure.
When I'm finished. I wasn't expecting you until tomorrow. When'd you get back?
About 30 minutes ago. We found it to be a little dull. So we decided to come on home.
I dropped Luanne by the house.
Ray tried to reach you earlier.
Now. It sounded important.
Excuse me.
Yes?
Yes. She's here. Yeah. Put him on.
- Who is it? - A Mr. Morgan from Certified National Bank.
Mike. You're working late tonight.
What?
He did?
No...
I knew about it, sure. Go ahead and issue the check.
Yeah. Goodbye.
What happened?
Ray. He drew a $3 million check on our account.
He's picking it up tomorrow.
I didn't realize he had that kind of money.
It was mostly your money. Wasn't it?
And you didn't know about him withdrawing it.
Well. He did try to reach you.
I think it's time I got back home to Dallas.
Oh. Sorry.
Boy. I don't know why I'm so tired.
It's not that late. You know.
How about some more coffee. Huh?
That'd be okay. Yeah.
I just. I don't know what's wrong with me. l...
Cliff?
He's out.
Never fails.
Three drops. Just like you said.
Here you go, Afton. I never forget a friend.
Thank you. J.R.
All right. Harry. Start.
Here it is. I got it.
Start with these.
Hurry up. Harry.
Even with this stuff. J.R.. there's only four more days left till the hearing.
Is it going to do you any good?
Well. Like my daddy says. The opera ain't over till the fat lady sings.
Do you believe Mr. Ewing was capable of arranging the overthrow?
I told him that day...
that I thought he was capable of doing anything.
Call Jordan Lee. President of Jordan Lee Oil.
Seemed like a great coincidence to all of us that he called us to his office...
at the exact time the overthrow was completed.
Did you question him about that?
Well. I asked him flat out If he was responsible.
- What was his reply? - Well. He sort of denied it.
We all had the feeling that he knew more than he was telling.
Call Claude Brown.
Claude Brown.
I left Dallas on the late flight on February 6th.
Flew to Zurich to meet a Mr. Betelheim of the Swiss International Bank.
I presented him with a signature card that Mr. J.R. Ewing had given me.
And Mr. Betelheim gave you?
The equivalent of $10 million in Swiss francs.
And from there?
I flew to Southeast Asia and met with members of the deposed government.
Now. Are these the same people who. After your meetings...
overthrew the government at the time it was in power?
They are.
These are true copies of bank deposits made by...
some of the members of the current Lee government.
Now. If the senators will examine their copies. They'll see that the deposit dates...
are immediately following Mr. Brown's arrival.
Minister Noh Prol. 1 million francs.
Minister Lanh Thon. 3 million francs. Vice chairman Ahn Tok. 3.5 million francs...
and the list goes on.
Now. The deposits coincide exactly with the amount of money that Mr. Brown disbursed?
That's correct.
Give the devil his due.
Couldn't this have been bribe money?
True. But as you can see...
the moneys were all withdrawn just before the government changed hands.
For what possible reason?
Quite simple. The money was used to finance the counterrevolution.
May I ask the committee a question?
Yes. You may.
If what Mr. Brown says is true...
then he seems to be as deeply involved as Mr. Ewing.
Now. Just to keep the record straight...
has Mr. Brown been granted immunity by the attorney general's office...
in return for his testifying against Mr. Ewing?
Mr. Barnes?
He has.
Well. Then he has little to lose by telling the truth.
Or by lying.
Take your choice.
Thank you. Mr. Brown.
Call Leslie Stewart.
Leslie Stewart.
Give your full name for the record.
Leslie Stewart.
Ms. Stewart, are you not currently employed as media consultant for Ewing Oil?
No. I have just recently signed an exclusive employment contract with Westar Oil.
Mr. Barnes has a copy of my letter of resignation...
which I submitted to J.R. Ewing effective last April 13th.
- I see. - You were employed by...
Ewing Oil at the time of the counterrevolution?
Yes. And I tried to warn Mr. Ewing of his involvement in that.
Mr. Ewing told you of his involvement?
- Yes. - Do you have proof of that?
Yes. As a matter of standard business practices...
I tape-record all of my conversations.
I believe that Mr. Barnes has a copy of those tape recordings.
Which I am prepared to play back for the committee now.
If I may address the committee.
If you intend to object to the hearing of these tapes. I'll remind you...
this is not a court of law.
Rules of evidence admission do not apply here.
Due to the extraneous material contained on these tapes...
they've been edited down to the conversation that's germane to this hearing.
Is the balance of the material available if we'd like to hear it?
Yes. It is.
J.R., you can't play games with a foreign government.
Is that a fact?
- What are you up to? - I'm up to changing my image.
That's what I'm working with you for, Leslie.
I can't help you unless I know what you're doing.
You kept that whole Asian oil deal a secret from me.
I want to work with you, I want to get to know you better.
In order to do that, we have to have absolute trust between us.
While I was running around...
putting ads in newspapers, setting up interviews with financial columnists...
you were smart enough to overthrow a foreign government.
Those Asian wells are bringing in more money than even I can find a use for.
J.R., since the wells got you back in with the cartel...
why do you always sidestep the issue of the counterrevolution?
- I don't know what you mean. - Oh. Come. Come.
We both know you were behind it.
Leslie, if it'll make you happy, hell, yes, I was behind it.
After all, everybody thinks I was anyway.
Thank you. Ms. Stewart. That concludes our questioning.
That concludes our testimony.
I believe. Senators. You have all the information now.
Senators. In the interest of fairness. Mr. Ewing would like to testify...
to answer the charges lodged against him.
We would welcome the opportunity for Mr. Ewing to do just that.
Raise your right hand.
Do you swear to tell the truth. The whole truth...
and nothing but the truth. So help you God?
Yes. Sir. I do.
First. Mr. Ewing. Were you responsible for the counterrevolution?
No. I was not.
You deny you provided Mr. Brown with the $10 million?
No. Senator. I do not deny that. I gave him those funds.
Well. Surely you heard Mr. Brown testify that the money was used...
for the counterrevolution.
Unfortunately. Mr. Brown misunderstood the purpose...
for which those funds were intended.
That's a rather large misunderstanding.
Nevertheless. He was wrong.
And for what purpose were these funds intended?
To dispel the image of the ugly American.
People who go into a country and siphon off all the assets.
Giving nothing back to the country itself.
Like Ewing Oil. And its offshore oil fields?
To a certain extent, yes.
I had heard rumors of discontent within the country...
and I felt that by... By returning money to them with no strings attached...
they might look more favorably towards American businessmen.
With no personal gain in mind?
Well. Of course. If the government did change hands...
I suppose they would be inclined to remember their friends.
And why do you suppose the government would change hands?
Why not give the money to the ones already in power?
That's called playing the come. Senator.
The government then in power had very little love for Americans.
If you remember, they nationalized all the foreign industries.
And I saw very little hope of reasoning with them.
Can you explain away the tapes we heard as easily as you can the money?
Senators. You've all seen Ms. Stewart. And a very attractive lady she is.
Earlier on in our relationship. I discovered that she was attracted to power.
She was attracted to men who were ruthless in their dealings.
And so. Feeling that she might be more kindly disposed to me...
I did admit, in a fashion...
to being responsible for the counterrevolution. A lie. Gentlemen.
A lie that I wish to retract at this time.
So you would have us believe that you lied to Ms. Stewart...
and the money Mr. Brown distributed for you was merely for philanthropic reasons?
I. For one. Mr. Ewing. Tend not to take your word for all this.
I never expected you would. Senators.
I do have one person to testify on my behalf.
A person of such stature that I'm sure you gentlemen will have to believe him.
We would like to request that His Excellency Lanh Thon...
his country's ambassador to the United Nations...
be allowed to testify on Mr. Ewing's behalf.
In the interest of fairness, Ambassador Thon will be allowed to take the stand.
Without Mr. Ewing's help...
we could not have accomplished what we have in the short time...
since our government has returned to power.
You're aware of the charges against Mr. Ewing?
Moneys delivered to members of your government. Yourself included?
Of course.
Let me show you.
Here is a new hospital wing...
under construction in our capital city.
We will name it in honor of Mr. Ewing.
And...
two new schools built in the outlying areas.
All of which are being built with funds supplied to us by Mr. Ewing.
Mr. Walsh has complete records of all expenditures.
It comes to an equivalent of 9.920.000 American dollars.
Mr. Brown kept $80,000“.
As commission for his services of delivering the funds to us.
- One question, Mr. Ambassador. - Yes?
All the money was deposited in the People's Bank of Singapore...
and then pulled out. Never to be seen again. Until you testify.
- Can you explain that? - Of course.
If our brave counterrevolution had failed...
we could not chance the money falling into the government forces' hands.
So we returned it to Switzerland where it would be safe.
Only to be used by us when we were back in power.
There is one further gesture Mr. Ewing has made.
I think you gentlemen should be made aware of it.
He has agreed to donate 10 percent of his oil fields' profits to our government.
A most humanitarian gesture on his part.
May I thank you again, Mr. Ewing.
Well. I... I felt that it was the least I could do.
Thank you. Ambassador Thon.
In view of Ambassador Thon's testimony...
and having these records for corroboration...
I believe this panel should find Mr. Ewing and Ewing Oil...
innocent of any wrongdoing.
And a recommendation of no prosecution.
All in favor?
So ordered.
Do I hear a motion for adjournment?
- So moved. - Second.
This hearing is adjourned.
I don't know how you did it, J.R.
I don't know how in the hell you bribed him to appear. But it's not over by a long shot.
I'm still going to get you.
Barnes. If you didn't do it this time. You never will.
Nobody's ever going to get old J.R.
- How could you do it. Bobby? - Do what?
Give J.R. all the evidence we had against him?
What are you talking about?
How else could he account for every penny...
unless he had all the facts and figures we had against him?
You're crazy. I'd never have done that.
You're a Ewing. In the end. You all stick together.
But tomorrow. I'll go before the Senate ethics committee...
to lodge charges against you.
Cliff. I'm telling you. It wasn't me.
Look. Do one thing first.
I have to go to Dallas tonight.
Before you go to the committee. Come to Dallas.
Meet me out at Southfork. We'll sit down. We'll talk about it.
All right.
I'll give you that. I'll be there.
But you're not going to change my mind.
Mr. Ewing is still at his office in Austin. But I'll make sure to tell him you called.
Thank you. Goodbye.
Hi. Ladies. How you doing? Congratulations. J.R.
We just heard on the radio.
Thank you. Thank you. Phyllis. Get ahold of Leslie Stewart.
- Tell her I'd like to drop by and see her. - Yes. J.R.
J.R.. Kristin's waiting for you in your office.
Really? Well. I'm going to buy out the Cattleman's Club tomorrow night.
Make a reservation. I'm going to give a big party.
- Right away. - Oh. And when you finish that...
type up a letter of recommendation for yourself. And I'll sign it.
A letter of recommendation?
Yeah. You're going to need it when you go looking for a new job.
I told you to get Claude Brown out of the country. His testimony almost put me away.
What are you doing here?
You promised me money.
Did I?
Well. Things have changed. Honey.
You're not getting another penny off me.
I can make a lot of trouble for you. J.R.
You're going to the newspapers. Or maybe my mama and daddy?
Y'all go ahead. It's still not too late to press charges against you for shooting me.
You'd never do that.
Wouldn't I?
You know. Maybe it'd be easier to send a couple of good old boys around to visit you.
Make you wish you never heard my name.
I'm going to give you a piece of advice.
Get the hell out of Dallas while you still can.
It's not over yet, J.R.
Pamela?
Sue Ellen?
Where have you been all this time? I've been so worried about you.
Are you all right?
Yes. I'm fine.
But I'm never going back to J.R.
Well. Where are you staying?
It's...
Well. It's rather complicated.
But I'm with the man that I love.
I thought he was lost forever. But he's back in my life again.
So I'm going to divorce J.R. and marry him.
What about John Ross?
I really don't know what to do.
I can't get back on Southfork.
And I can't leave without my baby.
I'm going to need your help. Pamela.
Come in.
You're looking very nice today.
- I admire you. Leslie. I really do. - And I you.
I didn't see any way you were going to get off that hook.
Well. I hope you don't mind If I'm a little careful how I talk around you.
No more tapes. Not with you.
Of course. It doesn't really matter. Does it?
I thought you were sinking. And I abandoned ship.
I would've done the same thing.
No one knows more about self-survival than I do.
One of the things I really admire about you. Leslie. Is your ability to protect yourself.
I wouldn't want you any other way.
You still want me?
More than ever.
But no strings and no promises.
You mean just for the fun of it?
Might be a first for both of us.
I'll try anything once.
Maybe twice?
It didn't work.
He even threatened me.
The hell it's over.
He's going to regret what he said to me.
I'll see to that.
- It's funny. - What?
It wasn't worth the wait.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
But then. Most things usually aren't.
If you're thinking of staying in Dallas...
I'd suggest you give Jeremy Wendell a ring.
He may not be too happy with you right at the moment...
but you're very persuasive.
I'm sure you can convince him of your value.
J.R.
You're still my kind of man.
Mr. Jeremy Wendell, please.
Leslie Stewart calling.
Hey. John Ross. Your daddy's here. How's my boy?
Guards!
- Gibson! - Yes. Sir?
Where's my son?
Oh. Mrs. Ewing took him for a little drive. Sir.
I thought I told you never to let her back on Southfork.
Oh. It wasn't your wife. Sir. It was Ms. Pamela Ewing.
Pamela took my son?
Yes. Sir.
Get in your cars. Get the hell off Southfork. Find her right away.
Yes. Sir.
- McSween. - J.R. Ewing here.
Harry. I need a favor from you.
Anything. J.R.
My sister-in-law Pamela just kidnapped my son.
She's driving a black Porsche. License plate number. Ewing 6.
I want you to contact the state highway patrol. See if they can locate her.
You want to have her arrested?
No. I don't want her arrested.
And I don't want word of this to get out. Either.
If they find her, you call me. I'll take care of her myself.
Will do. J.R.
Jackie. This is Cliff Barnes. Is my sister there?
No. Cliff. She left a couple of hours ago.
Did she say where she was going?
- Home. I think. - Oh. Well. That's okay.
Yeah. I'm supposed to meet Bobby out at Southfork. So I'll see her out there. Thanks.
She's dead. You bastard!
