00:02Here are some scenes from the first half of tonight's story.
00:05This is my wife. Honey, this is Gary.
00:09My brother, Gary.
00:13John!
00:15Yes, Ellie?
00:16John!
00:18What's wrong?
00:19Nothing. He's coming home.
00:22Who's coming home?
00:24Gary!
00:31Hello, Mama.
00:33Oh, Gary!
00:39Gary.
00:41Daddy.
00:44Mama, you're gonna come back to the ranch with us, aren't you?
00:48Daddy!
00:50It's settled then.
00:52I'm gonna call home and tell them we're coming.
00:54I told that girl never to set foot in Texas again.
00:56Come on, J.R., can't you forget the past?
01:00He's here now with my other boys.
01:02With his daughter.
01:04He's gonna bring that girl here?
01:06She's nothing but a tramp mother.
01:07Where's Pam?
01:09She went to see her daddy.
01:11It's pretty bad. He's in the drunk warden.
01:13Same old Digger Barnes, huh?
01:16The same old Digger Barnes who had the guts to come here not too long ago
01:19and try and bury the hatchet and left drunk and broken again because of you.
01:22And it's the same Digger Barnes who won't even see Pamela.
01:25Let alone talk to her.
01:26Talk to her now!
01:27He's a loser to him.
01:28He's been a loser every day of his life.
01:30If he wants something, he's gonna lose it all by himself.
01:34No, he'll mess up this visit without any help from me.
01:38You count on that.
01:39In a moment, the story will continue.
01:44In the moment, the story will kill you.
01:51Christ, the story will kill you.
01:51He will kill you.
01:55Do you see him.
01:56You're in love with your friends, too.
01:57Sometimes he will kill you.
01:57And all of you are young.
01:58You're moving away.
01:58I love you.
01:59You are my dog.
02:00I love you.
02:00You know how you do this same.
02:00You love me.
02:02You love you.
02:03I love you.
02:05I love you.
02:07You love you.
02:07I love you.
02:09I love you.
03:13Aunt Maggie.
03:15Aunt Maggie.
03:16Shouldn't have come.
03:18We'll have to see him.
03:21Digger's not a pretty sight.
03:23I know. I've seen it before.
03:26It put you through a lot.
03:28Thank goodness he had you to take care of him.
03:33Only my brother would take a little more care of himself.
03:38Come on, let's go.
03:43Come on, let's go.
03:54Come on, let's go.
03:57Come on.
04:01Come on.
04:06Come on.
04:11Come on.
04:13Come on.
04:14Come on.
04:19Come on.
04:21Come on.
04:43Come on.
04:44Come on.
04:45Come on.
04:46Daddy, I'm sorry.
04:51Gary, stop, please.
04:54Come on.
04:56Come on.
05:08Come on.
05:15Come on.
05:18Come on.
05:23for us inside.
05:25J.R. and your daddy.
05:27It's like I told you, Val.
05:30Jock's easier.
05:31He's not so hard anymore.
05:32J.R. is fine, almost like a real brother.
05:35They're really glad daddy's back.
05:37J.R. says one thing, and he does something else.
05:40But I told you about Pam,
05:42Bobby's wife.
05:43She's living there. J.R. doesn't bother her.
05:45Her husband's with her.
05:47That means a lot.
05:50Look,
05:51I know it's no excuse.
05:54But when I left here
05:5516 years ago,
05:56I didn't think they'd make you leave, too.
06:00Yeah, I know.
06:00I thought I'd be back.
06:03All I knew was
06:05I couldn't breathe on this ranch.
06:08But we would have gone with you.
06:10To go where? To do what?
06:12As far as I could tell,
06:13I wasn't good for anything.
06:15Oh, that was your big brother talking, not you.
06:18Well, I didn't do much thinking
06:19on my own in those days.
06:20As soon as you left, J.R. got rid of me.
06:23I snuck back for Lucy and took her,
06:25but they sent some old boys after me.
06:29Scared me half to death.
06:31They weren't fooling.
06:33If I'd have come back to Texas then,
06:35I believe they'd have killed me
06:36as soon as look at me.
06:39But what did I have?
06:41Nothing.
06:43At least I knew Miss Ellie
06:44would raise Lucy right.
06:46But I'd rather have you.
06:48Oh.
06:50Thank you, sugar.
06:55Do you ever get married again?
07:00No.
07:05You?
07:09No.
07:10Let's go.
07:15Let's go.
07:19Come on.
08:12Where's Aline?
08:14She still looks like a teenager.
08:18Don't you remember Mama?
08:20Hello, Mrs. Ewing.
08:22It's my wife, Julian.
08:24Hi.
08:25Welcome to South Fork.
08:27Val, of course.
08:30Val, this is great.
08:32You make Gary's homecoming complete.
08:35Val, Ewing.
08:38Mr. Ewing.
08:40Is your wife here?
08:43Pam's daddy's sick.
08:44She'll be back later.
08:46Valine, Gary and I have been trying to bury the old hatchet, and I hope you and I'll be able
08:50to do the same.
08:52Well, I guess so.
08:54Sure.
08:55Well, we were all pretty young and hot-headed in those days.
08:58I guess I was the worst offender of us all.
09:00Now we got to make a certain fine family.
09:03Well, let's just don't stand here.
09:04Let's have some food.
09:05Grant, I'm starving.
09:08Oh, man, Maggie, can't we take him away from here?
09:11As soon as they come and die.
09:14It's an awful place.
09:16He doesn't know fun.
09:18I know.
09:20Pamela, he may not go anywhere with you.
09:23Of course he will.
09:24He's my daddy, and I want to take care of him.
09:27Not now, girl.
09:28He doesn't want you to.
09:30He's better.
09:31I won't let him be.
09:32Pamela, when I get him home, we're going to try to get him to see you, but until I do,
09:40you stay away.
09:41But I...
09:42No buts.
09:44You've got to stop thinking of you, girl, and think of him.
09:53Here.
09:56Here.
10:09Hey.
10:10How are you, Ray?
10:14It's been a long time.
10:15Good to see you.
10:16Good to see you.
10:18Now, you run the place now.
10:19Yeah?
10:21Well, J.R. told me to take good care of you.
10:22He said you'd be staying on.
10:24I don't know.
10:26Well, this was always my first love.
10:28I never could figure out the oil business.
10:30Yeah.
10:31Well, we try to keep everything around the ranch up to date now, with all the latest equipment.
10:36Especially since your daddy's taking such an interest in the ranching.
10:39You okay, then?
10:40You bet.
10:41Look at all this.
10:42It just seems to me we could be raising four or five times as many head of cattle.
10:45I suppose so, but there'd be no profit in it.
10:48Why?
10:49Subsidies.
10:50Better off not raising them.
10:53I got the books right over here in pickups.
10:55Oh, no.
10:55No, that's okay.
10:57I guess the ranch keeps you and daddy pretty busy, huh?
10:59Nah.
11:00Tell the truth, I could handle it alone, but old Jock seems to be really enjoying himself.
11:07Ray, it's good to see you.
11:09Listen, Gary, a big spread like this can always use another good man.
11:13Yeah, thanks.
11:15You know, Ray.
11:39Daddy, I was just telling Mama that since neither of you got married again,
11:44and you both must still be carrying torches.
11:46You see, if I carried a torch, I'd have blown myself up a dozen times from all the alcohol
11:51on my breath.
11:52Daddy, we have to talk about the future.
11:54It's like I've been telling you, sweetheart.
11:56The three of us hardly know each other yet.
12:00You two can get to know each other for real now.
12:02We can try.
12:03If we stay close.
12:06Did you find out anything from him?
12:08Yes, Krebs and Daddy run the place, and well, nothing for me.
12:14Well, you could fire Ray Krebs and run the ranch yourself.
12:17I wouldn't do that, Lucy.
12:19Why not?
12:19He isn't much.
12:20Lucy, I won't do it, that's all.
12:24Honey, I don't push you.
12:37Folks, enjoying yourselves?
12:39Yes.
12:40Well, you just keep on enjoying yourselves as long as you like.
12:44Hey, listen to me.
12:46Giving permission to a Ewing to enjoy Ewing land.
12:51Well, let me tell you why I drove down here, Gary.
12:55You know, I was thinking about you staying here,
12:57and I got an idea that was so exciting
12:59that I just couldn't wait till you all got back to the house.
13:01What is it?
13:02Not too long ago, Ewing Oil acquired a little company
13:06that turned out to be a jewel.
13:08It distributes petroleum byproducts,
13:10you know, all the goop that's left
13:11when we finish doing what we have to do to the crude.
13:13And it's running about 5%, 10% efficiency,
13:17and even at that rate, it's earning in a nice, steady profit.
13:21And I thought it'd be a great project for you.
13:24For me?
13:25I tell you, it is a can't-miss operation.
13:28A little, uh, common sense and capital,
13:31and you're gonna turn that nice, steady profit
13:34into a big, fat profit for you.
13:35You know what?
13:36I don't know anything about that kind of business.
13:38If I stayed, I was thinking about working the ranch.
13:41Yeah, well, I can see you've been talking to Ray Krebs.
13:43I suppose he told you this place pretty well runs itself.
13:46Yeah, I know.
13:47Well, the nice thing about this, Gary,
13:49is you don't have to learn hardly anything.
13:51Just like I said, a little capital,
13:53a little tender, loving care.
13:54You run the company more or less like it's been run,
13:56put in some new machinery, a few changes here and there,
13:59and you're gonna have it made.
14:00And you can run fast, slow, any way you want.
14:03And I don't have to tell you,
14:04Dad and I will be 100% behind you.
14:07I don't know.
14:08You think about it.
14:12Thanks, Joe.
14:14I appreciate it, and I will think about it.
14:15Good boy.
14:17Joe, I'm gonna go right back with you.
14:19Just you?
14:20Yeah.
14:21Think we can trust these two lovebirds to be alone together?
14:24Nope.
14:25That's why I want to leave them here.
14:31Get in there, Kitty.
14:36Gary?
14:37Yeah?
14:38You gotta get away from here.
14:40Well, why didn't you hear?
14:41It's all going fine.
14:42Yeah, I heard.
14:42Now, look, you pack your bags and go on out to California.
14:45Or any place.
14:46I don't understand.
14:47What's wrong?
14:48J.R. is coming after you.
14:50Now, I'll move, too, maybe.
14:51We'll keep in touch,
14:52and if it all works out,
14:53we can come back for Lucy.
14:55Well, wait a minute, Val.
14:56You can't wait.
14:57He's gonna do it again.
14:58To you.
14:59To us.
15:00And to Lucy.
15:01Come on, Val.
15:02Well, can't you see?
15:04He's doing something,
15:05and whatever it is,
15:05it's gonna leave you wrung out
15:06and tossed away like the last time.
15:08And when he gets through with you,
15:09he's gonna come after me.
15:11And then Lucy isn't gonna have either one of us again.
15:22running down, why it was so bad.
15:30Bobby, you didn't even recognize me.
15:32Sweetheart, I hate to see you get so worked out.
15:35Now, Diggie, you're going to be all right.
15:36Holy shit, I can't take much more of this.
15:39And Maggie, poor Maggie,
15:41he's turning her life into a trial.
15:44Bobby, I've got to go help her.
15:45Now, you said she asked you to stay away.
15:50I don't know if I can.
15:53Pam?
15:54Come here, you haven't met my mama.
16:03Hi, Pam.
16:05Hello, Valene.
16:06I'm sorry.
16:07I promised Gary I'd be around.
16:09Oh, no, no, no, that's all right.
16:10I heard about your daddy.
16:12How is he?
16:13He's pretty sick.
16:15Bobby, daddy's got some good news.
16:18Well, it's a little premature, honey.
16:20Now, come on now.
16:21What is it?
16:22JR's got an entire company for daddy to run.
16:26JR?
16:28No kidding.
16:29Well, that's nice.
16:32Bobby, I've got to go.
16:34Don't you want to hear about daddy's job?
16:36It's not settled.
16:38Gary, I hate to be rude.
16:39I want to hear all about it later, okay?
16:44Why don't you just wait until you hear Maggie?
16:49Maggie brought him home.
16:53Oh, Bobby, I need to see him.
16:57Okay.
16:58Okay.
17:06Gary, I thought you'd want to look at some of this stuff.
17:20I'll go see what's going on.
17:21Thanks, Bobby.
17:35Daddy's going to do a great job.
17:36He'll see.
17:39Now, the essential material is still in the office in town.
17:42So, I want you to look this over real careful
17:44before you meet with the lawyers.
17:46Lawyers.
17:46Don't let him throw you, Gary.
17:47Did the same thing to me on my first day,
17:49and it's no sweat.
17:50There's no hurry, no obligation.
17:52I just want you to meet the right people
17:53so you can make a decision.
17:55Now, I told Mama about this,
17:57and I don't mind telling you
17:59you've got one happy lady out there in that garden.
18:04Bob?
18:04I don't know.
18:33It came anyway.
18:35So I see.
18:41Where is it?
18:44Sleeping.
18:46You know?
18:48What's in the bag?
18:51Stopped along the way.
18:52I picked up some magazines, paperbacks,
18:55a couple of puzzles.
18:58He won't want to see you, Pamela.
19:00Well, I want to see him.
19:02Ever since the barbecue,
19:03I've been trying to get to him.
19:05And he's been running away.
19:07Oh, Aunt Maggie.
19:09Does he know about my miscarriage?
19:14I told him.
19:17I don't know if he's registered or not.
19:19It's hard to tell with Digger.
19:23Why is he trying to cut me out of his life?
19:29Oh, I expect going to that Ewan barbecue made everything surreal to him.
19:36You'll be in a Ewan.
19:40I'm seeing Jock with that fine ranch and those important friends which Digger thinks he stole from him.
19:48And when Jock humiliated him there.
19:52No.
19:54Digger's blame Jock.
19:56He went through all the misfortune he ever had.
19:58And some of the blame is Jock's.
20:00But no.
20:02We've always known that.
20:05According to Digger, everything bad is Ewan made.
20:08Jock Ewan stole everything.
20:10He said it so often he believes it.
20:13And when you married Jock Ewan's boy.
20:16Proved everything he'd been saying all along.
20:33I bet this house looks tiny to you now.
20:38I love this house.
20:40Think about it.
20:42You raised me and Cliff and Jimmy and cared for Digger on this one little house.
20:47I think it's remarkable.
20:50Not remarkable.
20:51I...
20:53I enjoyed it.
20:55Most of it.
20:59You must leave, Pamela.
21:01Much too soon for a reunion.
21:06No, it's not.
21:07No.
21:26I don't want you here.
21:28What?
21:30I don't want you here.
21:36You leave still Ewan.
21:40Please listen.
21:42Not to Ewan.
21:44Daddy, try to understand.
21:46I need to try it.
21:49I went out there and he done it to me again.
21:52I know.
21:53I'm so sorry I made you come.
21:56But I love my husband, Daddy.
21:58What can I do?
21:59I love him.
22:00He's Ewan.
22:01I'll leave that place.
22:05Do what?
22:06I shock Ewan.
22:08He done it to me again like you always done it.
22:12And you watch.
22:14And you're still there.
22:16You're still under his roof.
22:18Oh, that don't make no sense to me.
22:21I'm trying to make some sense of it.
22:24I don't want you here.
22:26Oh, Daddy.
22:28Get out.
22:29I won't.
22:30Get out.
22:31No.
22:32Daddy.
22:32You're not supposed to...
22:34Daddy, now please.
22:35No.
22:36You're dead.
22:37Let me...
22:37You see that?
22:39You're dead.
22:39Daddy, don't...
22:40Please.
22:41No.
22:42Dad.
22:43Don't.
22:43Dad.
22:45Dad.
22:45Dad.
22:53Come on, buckworm.
22:54Put it away.
22:55Can you get back to it later?
22:56Oh, I don't know.
22:57Hey, how long has it been since you were on a horse?
23:00Years.
23:01Hmm, I think you can still ride.
23:02I can outride you any day.
23:05Tell me, does Daddy still tie you in the saddle?
23:07Tie me in the saddle?
23:08I'll show you who ties you in the saddle.
23:09Oh, the squirt's gonna try beating up on his big brother.
23:11Two out of three.
23:12Oh, you never get out.
23:13Old man.
23:14Big as you are.
23:15Old man.
23:15Old man.
23:15All right, more driver.
23:16Tag team.
23:18Come on, J.R.
23:19He comes home right away.
23:20You load him down with all this paperwork.
23:21We're gonna go for a ride.
23:23Okay, okay.
23:24I just thought Gary was anxious to get started on the project.
23:26Well, what's the rush?
23:27There's always tomorrow, and then tomorrow, and then tomorrow.
23:30Oh, well.
23:32Bobby's been on the road so long, he's got permanent jet lag.
23:35He has no conception of time whatsoever.
23:37Come on, Gary.
23:37What do you say?
23:38I'll go saddle up a couple horses.
23:39We'll leave, huh?
23:39Well, now, Gary does have a lot of catching up to do.
23:43He has a little daughter that he wants to respect him, and maybe even a wife again.
23:48I've noticed that Valene still cares.
23:51J.R., I'm talking about a break, not a vacation.
23:54Okay, okay.
24:01Bobby, I've understood that.
24:02Gary, we can ride any time.
24:23Where's Lucy?
24:25Oh, and she went for a ride.
24:27I told her to.
24:28She's so excited about her daddy, she can't sit still.
24:33Well, it's all working out just fine.
24:36Lucy has her mother and daddy back.
24:40Mrs. Ewing.
24:41Ellie.
24:42Ellie.
24:44I never thanked you for taking care of Lucy.
24:48Valene, you don't have to thank her grandmother for doing what's only natural.
24:53But she's grown up so sweet and loving.
24:57She's been showing you the good side.
24:59Wait until you've been around for a while.
25:01Well, then you'll see the kind of trouble she can get into.
25:04Well, I'm not sure I'm going to be able to be around.
25:07Of course you will.
25:08It's time you took charge of Lucy.
25:10She can talk to you about things that she'd never tell her grandmother.
25:15I don't know about Gary.
25:17I do.
25:18I can see the way he looks at you.
25:20Oh, no, no, no.
25:21I don't mean that.
25:22I don't know if he should stay.
25:25Of course he should.
25:27What happened before won't happen again.
25:29I'll see to that.
25:31I hope so.
25:33Well, I guess if you say so, then that makes it true.
25:48What you doing?
25:50Trying to decide whether to leave or fight.
25:54Well, I wouldn't leave.
25:55But then I don't know who you're planning on fighting.
25:59Can I talk to you for a minute?
26:00Sure.
26:07Bobby, what's J.R. doing to Gary?
26:10He gave him some papers to read.
26:13You were just a child the last time.
26:15You don't know what this kind of thing does to Gary.
26:17Well, Gary wants to work.
26:19And from what I've seen, he can take care of himself.
26:21Yeah, but J.R.'s driving him away.
26:23Gary's no businessman.
26:25He's over his head with a shopping cart in front of him.
26:27You're exaggerating.
26:29Gary's a lot more settled now.
26:30And I just took a look at those books.
26:32That company's as solid as a rock.
26:33But this is just the kind of pressure he cannot take.
26:38Okay.
26:39Okay.
26:40You tell Gary to take it nice and slow.
26:42If he doesn't like the job,
26:44I'll find him something else, okay?
26:47Thanks.
26:53You certainly did embrace that boy with brotherly love.
26:56Giving him that business to run.
26:58This tax revolt is sure shaking the politicians up.
27:02I just love it.
27:03What was that, honey?
27:05You weren't listening to me.
27:06I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
27:07What?
27:07It was about Gary.
27:09Oh, he's working.
27:10Got his nose to grindstone.
27:11Trying to save his Lincoln ship.
27:14Hi.
27:15Bobby?
27:15Hello.
27:17I thought I'd find Gary out here.
27:19No, I think he's still in the study.
27:24Maybe this isn't the right business for Gary to get into now.
27:29Well, it's not exactly a multiple choice operation.
27:32We don't have businesses from A to Z, you know.
27:34But why any business?
27:35What's the hurry?
27:36Because we're going to make a mint out of this.
27:38That business just fell into our laps.
27:40It'll get Gary started, and Mom will be happy,
27:42and we'll all live happily ever after.
27:44That sounds fair enough.
27:46I guess I don't know what he can do.
27:48I never really knew him.
27:49Well, you surely get to know him now.
27:52I hope so.
27:53I like him a lot.
27:55I like having another brother.
27:58Well, you can't have too many brothers now, can you?
28:08Don't do anything to him, J.R.
28:12Man, I like that.
28:13I go out of my way to make my brother's future secure.
28:16Fine.
28:16And when it is secure, I'll be the first to thank you.
28:19But meanwhile, just be on the level, okay?
28:24I always am, in my fashion.
28:26You know that.
28:27You know that.
28:32I like that.
28:34I feel like that.
28:38Again.
28:55I help you.
28:56I know that.
28:56I love you.
28:57I love you.
29:04Pam?
29:09Think you're okay?
29:11It is Fiddle.
29:13He's over the worst part, Betty.
29:15Well, that's good. Or is he?
29:17You going to send him and get well, Carl?
29:19He's out, Pam's out, Maggie's out.
29:21Well, if I could do anything at all, let me know.
29:23You've done more than enough already.
29:26If it helps you to keep this up, keep it up.
29:29But I got a feeling that doesn't help at all.
29:37I think it does help.
30:19What in the hell do you think you're doing?
30:22Returning gifts to the ladies' auxiliary.
30:28There they are. Magazines, quarterbooks, jigsaw puzzles, whatever.
30:34Gifts for the poor and infirm.
30:37Daddy.
30:38Cease. I have business to discuss.
30:41Now, sir, I refuse charity.
30:43It's all you refuse. Now get off of this ranch.
30:46I refuse charity, but those things which are rightfully mine, I accept.
30:51Well, now, what's rightfully yours this time?
30:54Something there's no doubt about.
30:56What do you want?
30:57Now, you took my oil wells and give me nothing in return.
31:01Sick and tired of hearing that.
31:03You took my oil wells and my money and my sweetheart and I never got a cent oil.
31:08Well, that's ancient history.
31:11Well, what do you want?
31:13Money.
31:14For what?
31:16The only thing I have that you can get.
31:31Do you mean to tell me that you want money for Pamela?
31:35Well, she was at Barnes and now she's at Ewing just like the oil wells.
31:39You're unbearable, Barnes. How much do you want?
31:42Ten thousand.
31:44Ten thousand.
31:49There's a hundred.
32:03Sold.
32:05Sold.
32:09Sold.
32:10Sold.
32:12Sold.
32:13Sold.
32:28Sold.
32:30Sold.
32:31Sold.
32:43You all right, honey?
32:44I'm fine.
32:45You sure?
32:46Yeah.
32:48You know why?
32:49Because I just don't care anymore.
32:52You don't mean that.
32:54Yes, I do.
32:55I mean exactly that.
32:57He's an old fool and a drunk, and I've had it.
33:01As soon as I wash away the smell of him, the better off I'll be.
33:08I'm sorry.
33:09I wish there was something I could do.
33:14I'll handle it.
33:22Got a second?
33:23Sure.
33:23Come on in.
33:24I'm sorry about what happened to Sam.
33:28It's quite a scene, huh?
33:29It's a laugh minute around here, isn't it?
33:32Oh, just wait and see.
33:33How you doing?
33:35Oh, fine.
33:35I read the first page of this report 16 times.
33:39Is that complicated?
33:40Not complicated at all.
33:41It's just that every time I start to read, I find myself thinking about anything.
33:46Whether my blue plaid shirt is at the laundry or...
33:49Hey, wait a minute.
33:51You're just nervous.
33:53Stop trying so hard.
33:54Yeah.
33:55May I?
33:57Oh, sure.
33:58Feeling better, Pam?
34:00Yes, I am.
34:02You won't be up too late, will you?
34:04No, ma'am.
34:06Hi, Dad.
34:07Oh, hi, sweetheart.
34:09You must know all about this business by now.
34:12You don't have to read everything tonight.
34:14I thought I'd just like to read one thing tonight.
34:17Well, I'm going to bed.
34:19So, uh, mark yourself out.
34:22Not here.
34:24Lucy, you best come with us.
34:25Leave your daddy to his studies.
34:27Thanks, sweetheart.
34:29Oh!
34:29Oh, no!
34:30Oh, wait a second.
34:31Get some towels.
34:32No, it's okay.
34:33I'll get it.
34:33Wait a minute.
34:34Ow!
34:35Oh, Gary, it's all right.
34:37It's running.
34:37I'm in this room.
34:39I mean, leave these papers in.
34:40Don't get them under the floor.
34:42Maybe J.R. is still up.
34:43Does he have some copies?
34:44Here!
34:45Do you think J.R. has a copy?
34:47Do you think J.R. has a copy?
34:49I don't know.
34:50You want J.R. has a copy?
34:52It's only a glass of milk, damn it!
34:54Leave me alone!
35:01Lucy.
35:02Lucy is only embarrassed.
35:03Leave him be.
35:31I don't think I've been wrong with him.
36:17Gary, please.
36:20Gary.
36:23Did you take that drink?
36:26No.
36:28But I was ready to.
36:31A couple of days here, and I was almost back to the bottle.
36:35But you don't have to leave this way.
36:38It's the only way I can leave.
36:40If I stay here, it'll tear this family apart.
36:42I can see it happening already.
36:45I'm better off just thinking that I ran away.
36:48But what about Lucy?
36:49You're not going to tell her?
36:52I'll never be the kind of father that she wants.
36:55At least not here.
36:58She's better off staying here and hating me than hating the Ewings.
37:02With me, she just travels around the country, no schooling, no stability.
37:07Yeah, but you're her daddy.
37:09It's not enough.
37:10She needs home, family, friends.
37:13Well, when they find you gone, how long do you think they're going to let me hang around?
37:20Well, I can't stay.
37:25You know what?
37:29I was going to come to you just now.
37:32That's how I knew you was gone.
37:35For old times' sake?
37:37No, for new times' sake.
37:41Would have been nice.
37:43It still can be nice.
37:48Come on, Dad.
37:50I can't.
37:52You know what the thing is?
37:55No.
37:56I'm all right.
37:58It took me a long time to realize that.
38:00I just don't belong with them, and there's nothing wrong with that.
38:03No.
38:06I'm going to be fine.
38:09But somewhere else, maybe you best do the same.
38:14Huh?
38:41Gary, I never loved nobody the way I loved you.
38:45But you, like I told Lucy, you was the prettiest thing I ever saw.
38:53You still are.
38:56Bye, Val.
39:13You catch your death on a morning like this.
39:17I'll catch my death anywheres around you.
39:19Then don't hang around me, honey.
39:25You handled this one perfectly.
39:29Monesty forbids my agreement, but you're right.
39:33So what's my future?
39:35None around here.
39:36Any choices?
39:39Well, $5,000, an escort out of the state.
39:44Any others?
39:45An escort out of the state.
39:48There was no reason for this.
39:50You took a little girl's daddy, and you lost yourself a brother for nothing.
39:53I wouldn't call another brother in my hair nothing, honey.
39:55Oh, he wouldn't have been in your hair.
39:57He would have brought you nothing but his self, his own good self, something you could have used.
40:03Go get dressed.
40:08Where are you going?
40:10I'm going to write you a check.
40:11Don't bother.
40:13You have taken everything from me, my child and my husband.
40:17The one thing you can't do is buy me with your U.N. money.
40:26The one thing you can't do is buy me with your wife and my husband.
40:30Would you like it if I'd walk with you?
40:33No, Jock.
40:34I want to be alone.
40:37We all got our hopes up too high.
40:40People just don't change that much, Ellie.
40:44It all fell apart, Jock.
40:47For the life of me, I can't figure out why.
41:04Lucy, I don't think you're being fair.
41:06I don't care.
41:07I really don't.
41:09You should have seen the way he acted last night because of that milk.
41:12Maybe there's a little more to it than that.
41:14Like what?
41:17J.R., I think there's some questions that only you got the answer to.
41:20Bobby, I don't think we ought to discuss it right now.
41:22Now the child's upset.
41:23If he ever comes back here again, I'll want to be the first to know so I can be somewhere
41:27else.
41:28Lucy, still your daddy.
41:31Where did you say my mama went?
41:34Honey, I think she went looking for her.
41:37Well, she'll be back.
41:38At least I know that.
41:56I thought I told you.
41:57I know what you told me.
41:59I don't buy it.
42:03You're a drunk, Daddy.
42:04You do idiotic, drunken things, and I'm ashamed of you.
42:08I don't marry you, Inge.
42:09I did.
42:10I did, and I'm glad because Bobby's a decent man.
42:14He doesn't smell the way you do, and I don't have to be ashamed of him the way I am
42:18of you.
42:18I love him, and he loves me, and that's that.
42:21The rest we have to put up with, like he puts up with that frog of a father, the rancher.
42:27I have to put up...
42:28You don't have to put up with nothing.
42:29I do, because you're the only father I have, and I'm not ready to be an orphan.
42:35Next to Jock Ewing, you're the most unwholesome man I know.
42:39But I love you, and you're not getting rid of me.
42:42Is that clear?
42:43No.
42:45Clear!
42:45Clear!
42:46No, get out!
42:48I'll be back.
42:49Never!
42:50I won't see you!
42:51Yes, you will.
42:57Help me!
43:09Don't be stupid.
43:10Keep it.
43:11They all last owes you a lot more than that.
43:23If that boy shows up here again, I'll ring his neck.
43:27I don't know why we expected anything different.
43:30I don't know from what?
43:31Julie, you didn't mean that question seriously, did you, dear?
43:35Well, yes, I did, dear.
43:37Different from the other Ewings?
43:39From what you expected?
43:41From what?
43:42Well, both.
43:44I think you answered your own question.
43:47Was that so terrible?
43:49Really, Pamela, this is no time for what's paid.
43:51For Pamela?
43:54I kind of like to hear the answer to that question myself.
43:57You what?
43:58You saw what he did to your mother.
44:01Gary has no character.
44:03That's what hasn't changed.
44:05Character.
44:06The kind with the Ewing brand on it.
44:08That gets to the heart of it.
44:10You mean a man has no character if he doesn't want to play the survival games we play.
44:15He's weak.
44:16Let's face it, he's just weak.
44:18You'd label any man weak who didn't want to stick a knife in somebody's back to earn an extra buck.
44:22I'm going to let that pass.
44:24You're worried about our brother, but don't get...
44:25I'm trying very hard to understand you, J.R.
44:28To understand the way this family thinks.
44:30Now, what is so wrong about a man being gentle instead of ruthless?
44:34Well, sometimes a man has to become ruthless.
44:37Or one of these days, somebody will walk into your house and take away everything you've got.
44:40Sometimes, J.R.
44:42Not all the time.
44:44I like Gary.
44:45I like his sense of humor.
44:46I like his way of looking at things.
44:47You like the way he ran out on his little girl twice?
44:49You like the way he broke his mother's heart?
44:51You like that, do you?
44:52You know what, J.R.?
44:54I don't think Gary ran out.
44:56I think he was pushed.
44:58Bobby, don't fault J.R.
45:02We all did our best to make him welcome.
45:07I know you tried your best, Daddy.
45:10Mama.
45:12But J.R., you knew more than any of us that Gary had no head for business,
45:16and yet you kept right on pushing your rich boy.
45:18Damn it, J.R., I liked having him around.
45:20His family needed him.
45:23He's a good man.
45:24And you managed to convince him that being a good man just wasn't quite good enough.
45:29And I stood by and let you get away with it.
45:31And for that right now, I'm ashamed of being a Ewing.
45:35But I'm proud to have Gary Ewing as my brother.
45:38Okay.
45:38Well, if she comes back, tell her to call me, all right?
45:42Thanks, Pete.
45:48She didn't go back to the diner.
45:51Maybe she found him.
45:52She's going to bring him back here and straighten him out and everything.
45:54Not going to happen, Lizzie.
45:56What?
45:58When I told you that she went looking for him, I was trying to protect you.
46:04If you've got anything to say, J.R., say it.
46:07I don't think it'd be wise, Danny.
46:09I think that Lucy should know the truth rather than holding on to fantasies.
46:14I don't want this child hurt anymore.
46:18Well, somebody tell me.
46:34Oh, J.R.
46:36What is it?
46:42$5,000 to my mama?
46:45For what?
46:47Just what she asked for, honey.
46:49Before she left.
46:52For leaving?
46:55I know the truth hurts sometimes, but...
47:07Well, in the old days, they used to kill the bearer of bad news.
47:12I guess I got off lucky.
47:29Well, she was the first one.
47:30I don't think so, too...
47:32I don't think so.
47:32Yeah, I don't think so.
47:37I don't think so.
47:40If you're going to do it, then...
47:41I don't think so.
47:42And I think so.
