Mary, Mary, Mary

In this episode, what a feast to watch Mary Crosby as Kristin. The scheming little she-devil. Who now sees the wheels coming off her plan to snare ol' J.R. Ewing. If you think about it, where does the child take it from to deliver such a performance? You see her world falling apart as J.R. is about to dump her, and as she tries lashing out with her hint at blackmailing the ol' scoundrel, he fixes her with a contemptuous smile, and she blanches, backs off. Now I'm pretty sure that few DALLAS fans went really lyrical about Mary (I know that back in the day, half a lifetime ago, I saw a pretty girl who was just SO mean... ) but Mary Crosby, wow!

Pamela's Victorian dress. With that high collar. Currently pictured here on this entry. She went to visit her down-and-out brother in a Mary Poppins dress? Get real! Can only be explained thus: The wardrobe department had that get-up lying around, so...

Trivia
Star Victoria Principal met her first husband, bit player Christopher Skinner here. They married in 1979 and ended in divorce in 1981.

Quotes
J.R. Ewing: Bobby, are you job-hunting for your brother-in-law?
Bobby Ewing: Yes I am. He's in pretty bad shape.
J.R. Ewing: Are you out of your mind? Don't you realize that anything you get him, it's just gonna backfire on us?
Bobby Ewing: He is defanged and declawed and we can't do anything more to him. We've won. He's defeated, J.R. What more do we need?
J.R. Ewing: The only time he's gonna be out of our hair is when he's six feet under and then I wouldn't trust him not to come back and haunt us!
