J.R. Ewing
- J.R. Ewing: Well, I got to hand it to Sue Ellen. Never in the world would I have thought of that man.
- Dan Marsh: Shall we continue or surveillance?
- J.R. Ewing: Yes... I suppose it's time we do something... about old Cliff Barnes...
- Kristin Shepard: [Sue Ellen's teenaged sister sashays down the stairs wearing short shorts] Well, hi there, J.R.
- J.R. Ewing: Well, hi there yourself, honey.
- Kristin Shepard: Grown since you last saw me, haven't I?
- J.R. Ewing: Yeah. Yeah, you have.
- Kristin Shepard: Think I look like Sue Ellen? Most people don't.
- J.R. Ewing: [eyeing her posterior as she seductively and symbolically selects a piece of fruit from a bowl] There's a resemblance, that's for sure.
- J.R. Ewing: Say, Bobby, Sue Ellen home?
- Bobby Ewing: No, J.R., she left. With a couple of suitcases.
- J.R. Ewing: I see. Well, I guess she's planning on staying at her mother's longer than I thought.
- Bobby Ewing: She told me she was leaving you, J.R.
- J.R. Ewing: That a fact? Just came out and said she was leaving, did she?
- Bobby Ewing: No. No, I asked her. I thought maybe I could help.
- J.R. Ewing: Whatever gave you the idea we needed any help?
- Bobby Ewing: The fact that she's leaving you! She also told me to ask you about the baby. Now why would Sue Ellen's having a baby force you two apart?
- J.R. Ewing: Now, Bobby, let's get something straight. If I ever need your help, I'll ask for it. Truly I will. Now, you take care of your wife and I'll handle mine.
- J.R. Ewing: I know what makes you tick, Barnes. I know what you need. You need power. You want to be a senator or governor. You want to be appointed to some fancy office. Of course, you found out in the last election anyone involved in scandal can't get elected dog catcher.
- J.R. Ewing: I'm willing to overlook your affair with Cliff Barnes.
- Sue Ellen Ewing: So, you know about it? And you're willing to overlook it? Well, I am not willing to overlook your affairs.
- J.R. Ewing: Well, I don't think you have a choice, honey. Now, if I have to, I'll have a couple of the boys take you down to a hospital I know. When you come out of there, you'll be without child. And everybody will call it just one of those unfortunate miscarriages. And on top of that, I'll add one of the messiest divorces you've ever seen. And you'll come out of that without one penny and no Ewing name.
- Mrs. Shepard: My fondest hope for her... is that she'll be just as fortunate in her choice of husbands... as Sue Ellen was.
- J.R. Ewing: Oh, I don't think you're going to have the slightest trouble.
- Kristin Shepard: [eating apple] I don't think so, either.
