Quotes 

• Ben Masters : [dials phone]  Tom? It's Ben. Jock Ewing and his sons are here. Yeah, Jock Ewing! They're going hunting. They just went across the street to the bar.

• Tom Owens : [after the fight]  He doesn't remember. He destroyed me... took everything, and he doesn't remember.

  Ben Masters : They're going hunting... in the middle of the week. No matter where they go, there's going to be nobody around.

  Tom Owens : Yeah... yeah.

  [begins to smile] 

  Tom Owens : I've waited a long time, and Jock Ewing is gonna remember Tom Owens. He's gonna remember me, all right.

• Tom Owens : My boy and I had to start all over again, from nothing... in Landowne.

  Ben Masters : Mr. Owens has made a lot of friends around here, Ewing.

  Jock Ewing : Yeah, the kind of friends that ambush people.

  Dan Owens : They all know my father's story and who ruined him in Texas. Nobody's gonna feel sorry for whatever happens here.

  Jock Ewing : So that's it? You're gonna kill me in cold blood, huh?

  J.R. Ewing : Listen, maybe we can make a deal, sir.

  Jock Ewing : No, J.R.

  [sits up] 

  Jock Ewing : All right, Owens. Come on. If you're gonna do it, do it.

  Tom Owens : [raises rifle, then looks into Jock's unwavering eyes, lowers rifle]  I can't. I'm not a killer. I thought you're were gonna shoot my boy... I was gonna kill you, and get away with it. Give the devil his due.
