Quotes
-
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.
