Quotes
-
J.R. Ewing : Do you see what Lucy's doing to Mama? I swear, it would serve her right if we took her ten voting shares away from her.
[grins at the thought, takes sip of his drink]
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Is that all you can think about, voting shares?
J.R. Ewing : Well, I never thought she should have them in the first place.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, no matter what you think, there's no way you can take those shares away from the people who have them.
J.R. Ewing : [knows differently] Yeah, I suppose you're right, Pam. Well, I think I'll go upstairs, and say goodnight to Christopher... and turn in myself.
[leaves, with blackmailed Bobby glaring at him in disgust]
-
Bobby Ewing : [re missing Lucy] Mama, she's gonna be fine. Now, you just have to keep thinking that.
Miss Ellie Ewing : I suppose so. I can't imagine anyone wanting to hurt her.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : [gets reminded by those words] Bobby... I've got to go to work. Would you walk me out?
[signals to Bobby that she doesn't want to alarm Miss Ellie]
Bobby Ewing : Sure. Excuse me, Mama.
-
Pamela Barnes Ewing : [in their bedroom] Bobby, I have an idea where Lucy might be.
Bobby Ewing : Where?
Pamela Barnes Ewing : You know that photographer, Roger Larson?
Bobby Ewing : Yeah?
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, she was very frightened of him. I even went to see him to tell him to stay away from her.
Bobby Ewing : Do you think he'd kidnap her?
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, I don't know, but it's worth the drive to see.
-
Sue Ellen Ewing : He told me that he loved me and that he would be able to support me the way J.R. did.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Not on his salary from Wentworth Tool and Die?
Sue Ellen Ewing : [shakes her head] Oh, no.. he was ready to close a big deal.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : What big deal?
Sue Ellen Ewing : [shakes her head, shrugs] I don't know. But whatever it was, it fell apart. He wanted me to loan him four million dollars.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : [incredulously] Four million dollars?
-
Pamela Barnes Ewing : I think it's going to affect you.
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : Oh? I don't understand.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Sue Ellen told me that Cliff tried to borrow four million dollars from her. Do you have any idea why he'd want that kind of money?
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : [exhales] In a way, yes. The controller at Wentworth Tool and Die told me that Cliff ordered a four million dollar check drafted on the company account.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, if he got the four million from Wentworth, why was he trying to borrow from Sue Ellen?
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : [shakes her head] I'm afraid the answer is obvious. He's lost the Wentworth money.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, how? On what?
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : Something called the Wellington land escrow account. Whatever that is.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Are you telling me that Cliff went into a deal of his own
[voice rising:]
Pamela Barnes Ewing : using Wentworth money, and the deal went sour?
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : [softly] Yes... I think so.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : Well, this is just what I was afraid of. Once Cliff was exposed to all that Wentworth money and power, he'd try and use it for himself.
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : Pam... calm down...
Pamela Barnes Ewing : I am so sorry for you, Mother.
Rebecca Barnes Wentworth : Honey, I'm not exactly broke.
