- J.R. Ewing: [to Edgar] Well... you must be an old friend of Donna's. Uh, Ray here, is into cows, so I don't think your paths would have crossed.
- Donna Culver Krebbs: You know, J.R., it's really a good thing that you gave up your political ambitions, because you really just don't have a way with words.
- J.R. Ewing: [chuckles] It's an old family joke.
- J.R. Ewing: [at restaurant] Well, hello, Donna, Ray.
- [with sarcasm:]
- J.R. Ewing: It's a surprise to find you here among the oil rich of Dallas.
- J.R. Ewing: Well, we haven't had a family dinner in a long time. Bobby's late.
- [smirks]
- Sue Ellen Ewing: Well, he had to pick up Jenna first. What time did he leave the office?
- J.R. Ewing: Well, I don't know. I got better things to do than check on his comings and goings.
- Ray Krebbs: Like stealing from the poor and giving to the rich, J.R.?
- J.R. Ewing: Speaking for the downtrodden nowadays, are you, Ray?
- Donna Culver Krebbs: Look, why don't you two just stay apart? Wouldn't it be nice if we could have a quiet family dinner just once?
- Charlie Wade: [after dancing with her date] Come on, I'm hungry.
- [they walk over to the buffet tables, she spots Pam]
- Charlie Wade: How are you, Christopher?
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: You know Christopher?
- Jenna Wade: That's Charlie, Pam. Honey, I don't think you've met. This is Pamela Ewing.
- Charlie Wade: HI.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Well, hello. As a matter of fact, we have met. Very briefly, a long time ago.
- Charlie Wade: We're gonna go get something to eat.
- [the two youngsters walk off]
- Jenna Wade: Okay, honey. Bye.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: She's very beautiful, Jenna. She looks just like...
- Jenna Wade: Me.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: You.
