10x08 - The Second Time Around

Post by bunniefuu »

There's something I wanna discuss with you.

A tradition. The tradition I had in mind was your giving away the bride.

BOBBY: We have pictures and x-rays of Daddy's old injuries.

- Let's see you go up against that. - Name your doctor.

- What the hell was that? - Sound of oil prices rising.

Cliff?

Oh, my God, Jamie.

I wish you all the best. After all, the only

thing that really counts is family, isn't it?

- What are you doing here? - Our son's getting married.

[CAMERA CLICKING]

RAY: Okay, Darius. Come on.

This is your new home now.

Atta girl.

There.

There you go.

There you are.

Hi.

I, uh...

tried to call you. Wanted to let you know I was bringing Darius over.

Where you been?

Just driving around, wondering who I might talk to, I guess.

I ended up here.

Are you okay?

Jenna, you've come along ways not to tell me what's on your mind.

[CHUCKLES]

You're gonna laugh when you hear this.

I'm not gonna laugh if this is some kind of problem you have.

Well, hold your hat.

Okay.

Ray, I'm pregnant.

Oh, boy.

Oh, yes. It's Bobby's.

I can't believe that my whole life is already a mess and now this.

What are you gonna do?

Have you told Bob yet?

No.

I tried to tell Charlie last night, but I couldn't find the words.

Not the kind of secret you can hide for very long.

Oh, Ray, she's still reeling from leaving Southfork.

I don't even know where to begin.

All right, lookit.

We've got Darius here.

What if you pick Charlie up after school, bring her over here and show him to her?

Then, maybe you could think of a way to talk to her.

- I know she'd like that. - Sure she would.

And, Jenna...

I want you to know that as things go along here...

I'm here for you.

Whatever you need.

I guess I knew that when I was driving around, Ray.

I knew to come here.

GARRETT: I should know by the end of the week if he checks out in Colorado.

Show these around the Running , and find out who knows what.

J.R.: You better dust off your passport and head down to South America.

Any answers you'll find, you're gonna find there.

Let's take it one step at a time, all right?

Colorado's the last place we know Parmalee's been.

I agree.

Well, he's a clever man.

He would have covered his tracks in Colorado.

Well, if he has, Garrett can always head south.

But let's not overlook the last place he's been.

Bobby's right. Sometimes it's the littlest detail.

BOBBY: Come on, let's let the man do his job, okay?

All right, it's in your hands now.

I'll find out who he is for you, and if he is Jock Ewing.

There's no way in hell.

I'm gonna nail that con artist to the wall.

CHILD: Yeah.

CHILD : Get it. Come on.

CHILD : No.

Hi.

Hi, son.

Remember me?

Yeah.

You're from the ranch.

You're Mr. Parmalee.

That's right.

How come you left Southfork?

Well, I had to.

Didn't you like it there?

I liked it fine.

More than fine...

but some things got in the way.

How come you're here?

Well, I don't know.

I knew you went to school here.

I thought I'd drop by and see you.

See me?

I miss the folks at Southfork.

[WHISTLE BLASTS]

I gotta go.

Recess is too short, isn't it?

Sure is.

It'll be that way all your life.

You tell your grandma I said hello.

Okay.

JAMIE: Would you stop looking at your watch? You just got here.

I don't see why I have to take time out of the workday to come down here.

Or you or Pam.

Excuse me, would you like anything else?

No, thank you.

You think about work too much, Cliff. That's probably pan of our problem.

I don't wanna talk about our problem.

I read an article...

that said that some men are intimidated by today's women...

- and that they cannot function like... - Shh.

PAMELA: Here we are. - Please.

PAMELA: Up, up, up. JAMIE: Up. Stand up. Come on.

TAILOR: Good morning, sir. - Take off your jacket.

- Ah. Ah. Are you in on this? - Uh, just...

Doris, down at the shop, told me she could not get you for a fitting.

I would've come down. I would've come down.

It's not as though you were stalling or aren't anxious to be a pan of this.

- Hold your sleeve? - Hey.

Listen now, don't you think you're making just a little bit much out of this?

You know, it's not your first time around the block, sweetie.

JAMIE: Such a sentimental old fool.

The first time I was married in jeans, and this time I'm gonna do it right.

Which reminds me, there's something I wanna discuss with you.

Something of a tradition.

- I'm not paying for this wedding. PAMELA: Well, that's tradition.

Yeah, but I'm not paying for any wedding at Southfork.

If you wanna get married in my condo...

He's all heart.

[LAUGHS THEN SIGHS]

The tradition I had in mind...

was your giving away the bride.

- Oh. - Bobby told me that you won't do it.

He said you'd be too intimidated to walk down the aisle at Southfork.

Bobby said that, huh? That's what he said?

Just who does he think would give away the bride?

I am the only family you have.

I am not intimidated by any of them.

I am not intimidated by anyone else either.

If you'd just hold still, please. Mr. Barnes.

ELLIE: Well, I think that's it.

Centerpieces on all the tables.

Sprays by the doors and corsages.

Oh, yes, but I'd rather have too much than too little.

Well, I'll trust your judgment.

Fine. Good.

Yes, that'll be fine. Thank you.

Miss Ellie, can I talk to you a minute?

[SIGHS]

Well, I've been talking to everybody in the world today.

I'd forgotten how complicated weddings can get.

I know, but there's, um...

something I think we should discuss.

- Sorry to interrupt. Mrs. Farlow? - Yes?

I'm leaving now, but if there's anything else you want me to do...

No, just as long as everything's bright and cheery.

Ah, we won't disappoint you. It's gonna be wonderful.

Thank you. Bye-bye.

Bye.

Well, Sue Ellen.

What was it you wanted to say to me?

[SIGHS]

I went to see Wes Parmalee.

Why?

I don't know.

Curiosity, maybe...

and maybe I didn't mind the fact that I knew it would upset J.R.

What I wasn't thinking of was the pain it was gonna cause you.

Well... Well, what did you talk about?

Different things.

Miss Ellie, I didn't take the man seriously...

but by the time I left...

it was the strangest thing.

I could almost hear Jock.

Stop.

Miss Ellie, I get cold allover.

Sue Ellen, I have managed to put that man out of my mind for now.

And I'm so sorry, but it was the eeriest feeling.

Well...

the man does have a certain way.

Sometimes I've... I've had moments when I...

[CRYING] No, no, that's enough. It's enough.

I don't wanna talk about him now.

I don't wanna talk about him!

You talk to her yet?

No.

I know. I'm a coward.

I wasn't gonna say that.

I made a couple of decisions.

I'm not gonna move out of Braddock, for one thing.

Charlie's had enough upset in her life.

And changing schools and losing her friends, well...

that'll be the last straw.

Pretty brave of you.

What's gonna happen in a couple of months when you start to show?

Pregnant ladies don't exactly get smaller.

Ray, you're asking me to think a couple of months ahead?

I can't even focus on tomorrow.

- I'm sorry, I just... - I know. I know, you're right.

It's just...

Pregnant.

Well, these coals are just about ready here.

I'm gonna go in and get, uh, dinner.

Maybe you can go out and round up Charlie, huh?

You ruined everything.

Charlie.

No wonder Bobby wouldn't many you.

You're gonna have a baby.

Oh, God, honey.

I didn't want you to find out this way.

You're supposed to love Bobby.

Do.

Then why are you having a baby with Ray?

What?

I heard you. I heard everything.

Oh, honey.

This baby isn't Ray's.

This is Bobby's baby.

Bobby's baby?

Yes.

But then it's all right.

Then he'll have to many you.

Honey, I'm afraid things are a little bit more complicated than that.

Why?

What did Bobby say about it?

He, uh...

He doesn't know.

- You didn't tell him? - No.

Well, tell him. All you have to do is tell him.

You know Bobby, then he'll many you and we could go to Southfork.

Charlie, I'm afraid things don't work like that.

A baby isn't a w*apon.

I'm not gonna tell him.

And I don't want you to tell him.

Okay?

Charlie?

Charlie!

Jackie, did you get the geology reports for the tidelands off the ?

Oh, not yet. We're getting it in the first of the week.

[SIGHS]

Fine.

- Oh, well. This day is done anyway. - Hm.

Cliff, are you ready?

Ready? What ready?

Cliff, I told you. I'm taking you out for dinner tonight.

You did?

Oh, you did. Oh.

Ha. That's sweet, Jamie, it really is, but you couldn't have picked a worse time.

Oh, come on, Cliff. I don't wanna hear excuses.

Work is done for today.

Well, okay, now, yours might be, and that's fine, but I still have business.

The most important business in our lives is us.

And it's about time that we both started realizing that.

You are right and I agree...

but I still have calls coming in.

Well, that's just fine. I'll wait for you, then.

No, no, no. I don't want you to wait. No, no.

I don't have any idea how long I'm gonna be...

and you've already put in a long day, so why don't you just go on home?

Huh. And you, you too. I mean, what are you doing here? You go too.

- I wanted to see if you needed anything. - Yeah, I do. I need peace and quiet.

Heh. I just need to be alone, you know?

Oh, wait. I've got an idea.

Why don't you all go down to the restaurant downstairs?

- Good idea. Here. Take my credit card. JAMIE: But...

And just get yourself a couple of drinks and I'll be there just as soon as I can.

- Okay, we will, but hurry up, okay? - Yeah.

[CHUCKLING] Come on, Jackie.

Hello, Mr. Barnes.

Ha. Hello, April. Come in. Come in.

I'm so glad you could stop by.

I appreciate you coming after hours...

because I thought it'd give us a chance to talk without interruptions.

From what I've heard, some of the best business is done after hours.

[LAUGHS]

Yep.

- Champagne? - I'd love some.

[BELL RINGS]

[LAUGHS]

Well.

- Would you give me a moment, please? - Sure, I'll get the car. Excuse me.

Well, interesting.

I come here unannounced to only find Cinderella off to the ball.

Well, you should have called.

- Called? - It's common courtesy.

There's nothing common about me, darling.

But if you've got something common going on here...

tell me about it right now.

He's in public relations.

Valentine's Lingerie has a new showroom opening.

Oh, I'm real impressed.

Maybe you should be.

The company's making a fortune.

And you know what, J.R.? They're saying I did this.

Being Valentine's Lingerie girl, I put the company on the map.

Wouldn't doubt it, the way you've been running around in your underwear.

Quite an accomplishment.

Why don't you give it up? You're making a spectacle of yourself.

It suits me. I like making a spectacle of myself.

Well, I don't like it.

Isn't that just too bad?

But I'll try not to worry myself over it.

What's gotten into you, Mandy?

Compared to you, J.R.. I may be a little slow...

but even I'm beginning to recognize a dead end when I see one.

What's that supposed to mean?

You've had every chance to put a stop to all this.

But you haven't, and at this point, I'm not so sure I want to.

Well... we'll see about that, little lady.

What you have got to understand, April...

is that some of the first families of Texas are going under.

And I mean under.

Texas is in a tailspin.

I know, these are trying times.

Ewing Oil is no exception. They're losing money.

Now, what's the worth of a company that's losing money every day?

I'm sure it's hard to say.

You don't have to worry about that...

because you are going to walk out of here a very rich young lady.

[SIGHS]

And a very attractive one, I must add.

Now, let's see, your divorce settlement gave you percent of Ewing Oil.

Five percent of an enterprise that's worth, uh, a hundred million dollars.

- Maybe million. - Mr. Barnes.

- And I will buy your shares at" - Mr. Barnes.

I was browsing through some back issues of the Dallas paper...

and you know what?

When Jock Ewing d*ed, his estate was estimated...

at between million and a billion dollars.

And that was four years ago.

You're talking about boom times.

Now, I don't know that we are ever gonna see those times again.

On the other hand...

if the Saudis cut back to four and a half million barrels a day...

Texas crude could hit , $ overnight.

I'm getting the impression that you know quite a bit about quite a bit.

One thing I do know...

is that the best deals are made when the concerned parties are friends.

More champagne, Mr. Barnes.

Cliff.

Well, he's still hard at it.

[SIGHS]

This will be perfect.

- Thanks, Jackie. - Okay.

- Have a good time. - Thanks. Good night.

[SIGHS]

Cliff?

Oh, my God, Jamie.

You bastard!

Oh. Oh, no, wait a minute. Look!

Look, I can really explain it. It's not exact...

Well...

My. my. my. That must be my ex-sister-in-law.

What a temper.

Good thing she didn't get have five minutes from now.

Krebbs.

K-R-E-B-B-S. Mm-hm.

Look, I know that it's late but I'm calling to confirm an appointment...

that I have with the congressman at : on Tuesday.

Well, I represent, um. A group of independent oilmen...

that are headquartered in Dallas.

Lobby's not a dirty word.

A mutual friend will be joining us for lunch.

Uh, Senator Dave Culver.

Mm. Mm-hm. I can hold. Thank you.

[SIGHS]

I couldn't believe it either.

HARV: If your mama concedes publicly even the slightest possibility...

that Parmalee could be Jock...

any judge would have to lean in that direction.

Don't you see? That's his whole game. He's working on Mama.

Look at the time, he's not gonna show up.

J.R., the expressway is a parking lot at this hour, you know that.

Now, let's all settle down...

[INTERCOM BUZZES]

Yes?

Okay, send him in.

Round one.

Appreciate your coming, Mr. Parmalee.

Won't you sit down?

I was wondering when you'd get around to me, Harv.

Oh?

Perhaps you can guess what we have in mind.

Before we start, there's something I wanna say.

If you ever go near my son again...

some dark night, you're not gonna make it home, mister.

- Your son is my grandson, J.R. - You've been warned.

- J.R. HARV: Everybody, please.

Mr. Parmalee...

you've been harassing the Ewing family, causing personal distress...

financial disruption to the Ewing business.

We want you to cease from now on...

or we intend to prosecute you for harassment...

defamation, extortion.

You want me to deny who I am.

I won't do that.

You maintain your claim?

It's a fact.

Then you won't mind taking a series of tests.

Medical tests?

We're calling your bluff, Parmalee.

What kind of medical tests?

Blood tests, full x-rays.

See, we have pictures and x-rays of Daddy's old injuries.

Now, if you're so sure about yourself, let's see you go up against that.

Name your doctor.

My secretary will make the arrangements.

You thought I'd buckle.

Frankly, I was waiting for you to get around to this.

If I had suggested it...

you would have thought I was running some kind of little trick.

This way, if I pass your test, that's it, right?

I am who I say I am. I'm Jock.

You picked the wrong family, Parmalee.

If you think you can waltz in here, tear my people apart...

You're in for the fight of your life.

Well, I wouldn't have it any other way.

After all, I'm the one who taught you boys how to fight.

JACK: Jamie, take all your stuff.

Let's clean this place out.

I'm only taking what I need for now.

You were a lot quicker on the trigger when you were a kid.

As far as I'm concerned, you either do a thing or you don't.

[SIGHS]

I don't suppose it'll do any good to repeat that nothing happened.

Only because I walked in.

Well, if you had come home last night, I could've explained.

Cliff, I don't wanna hear your explanations.

Why don't you just go find your blond? Maybe she can straighten you out.

You know, you're not impotent. You're just worn-out.

I could say what I have to say a hell of a lot easier if you weren't here.

Hey... Oh. Hey, go ahead. Don't mind me. Heh.

Don't you budge.

Look, I just wanna say...

that you're right.

You should have left me along time ago.

And if you want an annulment, well. I won't stand in your way.

Annulment?

Ha! Are you kidding? This is a terrific case for a divorce.

I don't wanna talk about that now.

A divorce? No, no, no. That's too messy...

and we don't wanna drag ourselves through that.

Oh, nothing messy about it, long as you're on the winning side.

Jack, please.

I'll introduce you to my ex-wife.

- That girl can negotiate a settlement. - Hey, look, no.

She doesn't wanna talk about it and I don't blame her.

I don't wanna talk about it either. So I'm gonna leave, let everything cool down.

- No, I'm leaving. - Whatever you say.

Jack, uh, we'll talk later, right?

Why?

Just because Jamie and I are splitting up, that's no reason to k*ll our deal.

Cliff...

I can honestly say I have never met anybody quite like you.

PAMELA: A month ago, I thought we had all the time in the world.

And now that it's here, I can't believe how much there's left to do.

Bobby?

Bobby, why are you stopping?

Bobby.

Sweetie, we're due at Southfork. I'm already late for the shower.

You know. With all the upset in our lives...

and all the commotion surrounding this wedding...

I don't think I've had a chance lately to tell you how much I love you.

How very much I love you.

Oh, Bobby.

I'm the happiest woman on earth right now.

[LAUGHING]

PAM: Mm.

That's... There" You got that? Okay.

- There, sweetie. - Okay, what?

- Ah. Ah. - Oh, what's wrong?

Oh, I'll take them off.

- I'm so sorry. - Okay.

There.

[LAUGHING]

BOBBY: There.

- Bobby. - Ouch.

- Bobby, stop. - Uh...

Next time I decide to do this...

will you remind me to bring a station wagon?

Cattle drivers.

- Come on, I'm taking you back. - Oh.

- I need a shower. You okay? - I need to get ready. Yeah.

- Ahem. - My earrings.

[FUNKY MUSIC PLAYING]

MAN: And one and two and step, step, step.

And tum and good.

And one and two and step, step, step.

Tum and step.

And one and two and...

- Well, I appreciate your offer, ML, uh...? - Ewing.

- Ewing. - Mm-hm.


But I'll tell you what I've told everybody else.

The company's not for sale.

I'm sorry I'm late, Mr. Valentine.

- I had the dentist... - Just hurry up.

Now, uh, don't let sudden success go to your head, Mr. Valentine...

because I've done my homework.

It wasn't long ago you couldn't pay your rent.

[LAUGHS]

Yesterday, I was operating out of a sweatshop loft.

Today, I got showings.

I got buyers flying in from New York.

God bless America.

Ha-ha-ha. Amen, brother, amen.

But, you know, the garment business is pretty tough.

This year, you might be hot. Next year, it's adios.

Now, I don't care how much you've been selling.

You can't be making more than I'm offering you...

and nobody's gonna bid any higher, I can assure you.

It's a good offer, but like I say...

If you wanna stay in the nightie business...

you can open up a shop across the street as far as I'm concerned.

[HANGER CLICKS]

Ha, ha. Say, listen. Don't these girls care who's watching them?

Why do you wanna buy this business so bad?

Uh, well, I have my reasons.

Now, when can my lawyer get in touch with you?

I can't.

What do you mean you can't? You can't afford to pass up this offer.

All right.

Name a price.

- There is no price. - course there's a price.

There's always a price. Maybe I'm talking to the wrong person.

- Who owns this outfit? MAN: Mr. Valentine.

Will you come and talk to these ditzy girls again...

about their bikini tan lines showing?

- Uh, I have to go. - Wait a minute, I asked you a question.

- Who owns this outfit? - I'm sorry. Ahem.

That's all right.

I have other ways of finding out.

Well, there you go.

- Have a wonderful shower. - Thanks.

Listen, you wanna join the ladies? I can get you in. I know the guest of honor.

No, thank you.

Actually, I, uh...

I'm gonna go see Jenna.

Why?

Honey, I think I should.

This whole thing has been so abrupt for her.

You understand, don't you?

I suppose so.

Do what you have to do.

Bye.

[ENGINE REVS]

Hi.

Congratulations. - Thank you. Ha, ha.

- You're late. What happened? - Oh, car trouble.

PAMELA: Well, you look great. SUE ELLEN: You okay? Thanks.

[BOTH LAUGH]

- Hi. Mm. Oh. Congratulations.

You look glorious.

It's true what they say about pregnant women. You are glowing.

[SUE ELLEN LAUGHS]

- Let's look at some of your presents. - Oh, okay.

- There's lots of food. PAMELA: I'm hungry.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Morning.

[DOORBELL BUZZING]

Oh, Charlie.

She's not home.

Uh, do you know when she'll be back?

I don't know.

She went to the doctor's.

The doctor? Is she all right?

What do you care?

Charlie, of course I care. Now tell me, why did she go to the doctor?

She's having an examination.

I don't know when she'll be back.

I've got homework.

Hey.

[CRYING] It's not fair what you did.

[SIGHS]

- Charlie. Brought us to Southfork.

And now all of a sudden, you're marrying some other woman.

Honey, it wasn't all of a sudden. I tried to explain that to you.

Pamela and I were married before.

We have a child.

I thought you loved my mom.

I did, honey.

I do. course I do, and you.

You're like a daughter to me.

Damn you!

[DOORS SLAMMING]

[ALL CHATTERING]

SUE ELLEN: Hi. PAMELA: Hi.

SUE ELLEN: Good, you're finally here. PAMELA: Oh, I'm excited.

I couldn't sleep last night. No, I've got it.

I kept thinking about everything I...

- Do I have my dress, are my shoes right? - You're gonna look so beautiful.

PAMELA: You know, I'm so excited, I mean...

- Hello, everybody. Ha-ha-ha. CLAYTON: Good morning.

Tasha. How are you?

I didn't think you could come. I'm so glad.

- Isn't it a wonderful day? WOMAN: How are you doing?

- Hi, hi. How are you, huh? MAN: Fine.

You look wonderful. Is that a new haircut? Ha-ha-ha.

Oh, my.

- Isn't everything pretty, Clayton? - Yes, yes.

- Hello, how are you? - Good morning.

ELLIE: So glad you could come.

Ellie, you are absolutely radiant today.

You can tell me that any time you want to.

Ha, ha. I haven't seen you this happy for some time.

Well, I have all this and I have you.

And you always will.

You know what I mean. Ha, ha. Yeah.

I don't believe it.

- Jack, do you know who that is? - Who?

JAMIE: That blond there with Cliff.

That's that floozy I caught him with in his office.

April.

What?

Hold on to your hat, kid. That floozy happens to be my ex-wife.

Some pieces are starting to fall into place.

Jack, what pieces?

Remember that day at the condo? I told you about April.

Getting half of everything that was mine, including my share of Ewing Oil.

And then, that twerp you're married to walked in right after that.

Yeah?

I'll bet he heard everything.

Half of your shares of Ewing Oil.

Yeah, that would get his attention.

Well, I guess we all know one another.

- Hey, Bob. - Yeah.

See that little blond over there?

- Yeah, why? - Looks real familiar.

Oh, I know where I saw her.

She came to the office, said she was a friend of Jack Ewing's.

- There she is with him. - Uh-uh, I don't think so.

I saw he! come in with Cliff Barnes.

[LAUGHING] How about that?

Man's not separated a week, sticks his girlfriend under his wife's nose.

That's going a little too far, even for that turnip seed.

[BOBBY SIGHS]

J.R., this is my wedding day and that means it's Pam's wedding day.

And that is Pam's brother. Please don't start.

Bobby. I wouldn't do anything like that, you know me.

Jamie, this is not the time nor the place.

You certainly have a mouth to match your temper.

And a left hook to match my mouth.

Jamie, this is not Alaskan oil camp, honey.

[J.R. LAUGHS]

Well, look at this rogues' gallery. Now, what have I got here?

I got a Ewing, a Ewing-Barnes, a plain old Barnes...

and hooked up with the plain old Barnes is, um, uh...?

- I have to go into the house and change. - For the better, let's hope.

April.

J.R.: April Stevens, that's right.

What is an April Stevens doing at a Ewing wedding?

I invited her. This is a Barnes wedding too, you know?

Oh, in that case, I'll send you the bill for the flowers.

There's another reason.

I guess you could say I'm sort of a Ewing.

J.R.: Oh?

Yes.

Jack and I used to be married.

Didn't you tell anybody, Jack?

Are you ashamed of me?

“Ashamed“ isn't quite the word I'd use, April.

Mr. Ewing. There's a phone call for you.

- Tell them I'll call them back. - It's from Oklahoma.

- The caller said you'd know who it was. - All right, I'll take it.

- I'd like to talk to you later. - I'm always available.

[LAUGHS]

Hi, stranger.

Donna.

Haven't seen you around for a while.

Whose fault is that?

You open right up with both barrels, don't you?

Why play games?

You see, uh...

I'm getting my life together.

You don't seem to want any part of that.

So, what's the point, huh?

You picked a heck of a time to start that discussion.

Is there a good time?

I just came to see my little brother get married.

- Make this a whiskey. BARTENDER: Yes, sir.

A little early in the day for that, ain't it?

- Sure it is. Make that a double. BARTENDER: Yes, sir.

It's about time I went upstairs and got ready for this shindig.

- Why don't you come along with me? - Why not?

Come on.

[PEOPLE CHATTERING AND LAUGHING]

- I don't believe it. Really? WOMAN : Yes.

WOMAN : Were you in the office? WOMAN : Ha, ha.

- Excuse me. WOMAN : Of course.

What are you doing here?

Our son's getting married.

He is not our son.

Will you stop saying things like that?

And I want you to go now.

Don't worry.

I'm just gonna watch from here.

If Clayton or any of the men see you here, there's no telling what they'll do.

Are you worried about me or them?

[SIGHS]

I'm worried about this wedding.

Please.

All right.

I will leave on one condition.

I want you to agree to meet with me.

Meet with you?

Alone. Another time.

Maybe at the museum.

You always did like walking through there.

Oh, no, no.

No, I can't do that.

Miss Ellie?

Mr. Fallow was looking for you.

Oh, uh, yes. Thank you, Carla.

Will you please go?

Not unless you agree to meet me.

All right.

All right.

Yes, I'll... I'll meet you...

but just go.

Calhoun?

Why are you calling me here?

There's not supposed to be any connection between us.

We're in this together, my friend.

Just thought I'd give you a chance to see a rehearsal of our little mission.

I'll send a chopper for you.

No, no. It's in your hands now.

The less I have to do with it, the better.

Besides, I'm right in the middle of a wedding.

CALHOUN: Okay, but you're gonna miss a good show.

Wait a minute, hold on just a second.

How much longer before this thing's ready to go?

- It's ready now. - Good.

Now, the effect's not gonna be quite the same...

but listen to this.

What the hell was that?

Sound of oil prices rising.

Oh, yeah? Ha, ha.

Well?

Pam...

you look beautiful.

Thank you.

Listen, I know how pressures can destroy a marriage.

Look what happened to Pam and me.

I just don't want the same thing to happen to you.

Come on, Bobby, about that time. Let me do this, will you?

You never could tie one of these things.

Good news is I won't have to do it again.

J.R.: Huh. That is, if this marriage works out.

- Don't start. J.R.: Come on, Bob. I was just joking.

You know, I was against you bringing a Barnes into this family the first time.

And I can't say that I've changed my mind much.

- J.R. - Just let me finish.

It's not gonna be easy for me having Pam back in the family...

but I realize she makes you happy and that's...

That's all that's really important to me.

- Well, I'm glad to hear it. J.R.: Well...

Listen, I wish you all the best of luck...

and all the happiness.

Because after all, the only thing that really counts is family, right?

Thank you.

Well, Ray, you're pretty quiet.

Aren't you gonna wish me luck?

Here's to you, Bob.

Everybody's feeling pretty good.

I was hoping some of that happiness might rub off on you.

I know how things are between you and Donna.

That's my business.

Like I told you, it just seems to me that you were kind of hard on her.

- Look, I don't mean to give you advice. - I wouldn't start now.

Donna's in an emotional state. She's pregnant.

- You ought to give that consideration. - Consideration?

Why, you hypocrite.

Where is your consideration?

Hey, wait a minute there.

First, you're with Pam.

Then Jenna. Now Pam again?

Is that consideration?

Ray, you're getting way out of line.

You lecture me about my pregnant wife.

You're walking down the aisle with Pam...

while Jenna is carrying your baby.

You go consider that.
