John Ross quotes from Dallas

What do you take me for, mama, a scoundrel?

Oil's the past, John Ross. Alternatives are the future.

I couldn't disagree more.

I have money. A lot of money. Skimmed from Vicente on Southfork's sale. We could go away together.

I wouldn't wanna go across the street with you. Now leave, before I do somethin' we both regret.

No, I am not gonna ask Elena to float me some barrels. I refuse to drag her into this mess.

Sue Ellen

She's in the oil business, she's in the mess already.

Lucy, you were and always will be, my favorite cousin.

[business like] What do you want?

I just want to know one thing... where is my oil?

It's kind of tough to do business behind bars.

He finally got what he's always wanted, but he's being pig-headed and selfish.

Sue Ellen

[sarcastically] That's so unlike J.R.

Pamela

Was all I was just revenge sex to you?

Revenge sex is all I could afford.

[reading J.R.'s final letter to him aloud] John Ross, if you're reading this, it means I'm dead. And if I'm dead, that means Barnes is coming after you. You must crush him before he can win. I promised your Uncle Bobby that taking down Harris Ryland would be my masterpiece. I bet my last nickel Barnes'll join forces with Ryland to destroy us. Use what I've given you to take from them what they want to take from us. When you've done that, Bobby will know what to do.

And remember, you're my son, tip to tail.

Bum

[to Bobby, handing him an envelope] He wanted you to have this.

[Bobby reads it silently] What's it say?

Christopher

Ain't you gonna tell us?

[Bobby beckons to Bum] Uncle Bobby!

Christopher

Dad!

Bobby

[as he and Bum leave the den] This is between my brother and me... for now.

Bobby

[to Bum] You pay off whoever you have to pay off... so that everybody still thinks J.R. was killed by a mugger. And when the time comes, we'll take care of this ourselves... as a family.

I ain't going anywhere until I know that you're OK.

Pamela

You'll be here a long time.

Are you doing this because you love me or because you hate your father?

Pamela

I do.

Pamela

I'd always dreamed that my wedding ring would come from a gum ball machine.

I don't know if you've heard but my family in the midst of some financial difficulties.

Bum

Please believe that his last act was an act of love for his family, and for you.

[shaking Bum's hand] The only person who could take down J.R., was J.R.
