[QUOTE="stevew, post: 44073, member: 130"] Sue Ellen opens a jewelry box and reads, "These belong to you darlin'." She looks over Miss Ellie's jewelry. JR welcomes on board her ship a young man saying, "Lets finish this up so you can get busy on putting on the final touches." "Yes sir." "Remember just your name on it and it's not to be published until after my death." "How can I forget?" "Alright then. Well wish this up and you can said the final copy for my edits to South Fork. I'm moving in with my wife and children." "Which wife is that?" "Only one that mattered. Sue Ellen." "I thought Venessa was the love of your life." "So did I at one time. Then I forgot all about her. Then she showed back up and then she quickly left. Made no difference." "And Cally?" "A sweet girl. You had to fall for her if you meet her. But no." "And Katherine?" JR laughs. "A rabid bitch. Damn what a woman. I'll tell you I even came to fell for her. She could handle those people that neither her mother or father could. I appreciate that, and her help. What a woman. But no." "Why Sue Ellen?" "Every day of my life since I've meet her I've thought of her and I don't know why. Beautiful, yes. Intelligent, yes. Compassionate, very. She's the only woman I ever wanted to love me. And all these years she still is. I've as much hated her and loved her for that. Mark my word, she'll be my first wife and my last." "And your third." "Yea well that's a bit of poetic license my boy. None of my other narratives were legal. Just the times I married Sue Ellen, and I'm gonna hold onto until I do again." "According to my research you share that in common with your brothers, both Bobby and Gary, an obsession with one woman you keep marrying again and again. He just married Pam." "I'll be damned. And now my boy's doing the same thing. He can't give over that girl. Let me tell ya, before this cancer gets the best of me how old JR is gone get those two together and how I'm gonna marry Sue Ellen again. And Trident is gonna be my legacy like Ewing Oil was my daddy's." Pamela looks up from her desk when Chris comes in, telling him to sit down. As he does he says, "Trident just made a bid to merge with CalcoHarwood." "I know. I was informed. All the major shareholders were informed, that means JR and the Ewing Foundation." "And SSC Bank." "Did you hear about SSC Bank?" "John Ross, Bo and Rebecca merged Wentworth Industries into Ewing Oil. They share it equally now and it includes a healthy share of SSC. Which means they've got a sizable share of CalcoHarwood. Bo's president. Rebecca's chairman and we all know somehow John Ross it pulling the strings." "If we all stick together we'll be able to fend off a takeover." "That's a big if. Holly Harwood is in favor of the take over." "No way." "Just talked her right before you arrived. And I can guarantee Bobby will go along with it because the deal is bound to make the foundation money. That mean so will Gary and Sue Ellen. I'm assuming that's what John Ross will figure as well. So the only chance we have of fending this off is if you ally yourself with your Uncle JR." "No way in hell that'd gonna happen." "Than you better prepare to watch Trident take over and push you aside." Bo walks down from the rec room barn out back of South Fork. JR shakes his hand and says, "I wants thank you son for givin' me your room and movin' out here. Be better for a young, single man anyway, got the exercise room and that big party room and some privacy." "No problem dad. You sure it's gonna be OK with you movin' in the house though?" "Sure it will. And I'll be movin' in Sue Ellen's room soon enough." "What makes you think she'll take you back?" "I've got my ways. I'll charm her. You'll see. Besides I gotta make room for when your brother has more kids." "What with Amy?" "No even I've given up on that. Say how you and your sister doin' running Ewing Oil?" "Just fine. Real good actually." "Keeping John Ross in the loop?" "Meet every Monday morning before he meets with Ruby and Arnie and Sal." "Diversifying the company I hear." "Somewhat. That's Rebecca's call. I'm heading up the oil field services operations." "Good man. Good man. I'm proud of you." John Ross stands on the porch off the back off South Fork and says into the phone, "Of course I want to buy the ranch Uncle Bobby but why you want to sell? . . . And Christopher? . . . No I suppose you're right he doesn't seem to care about it anymore . . . You spoke to Uncle Gary and Uncle Ray and? . . . And there kids? . . . OK . . . Yes of course I want it. I'll make all the arrangements. But you aren't coming back? . . . Thank you." John Ross walks into his while in the wall bar and says, "Lucas Krebs." Lucas turns around me at the bar and the two hug. John Ross joins him and Lucas buys him a drink. John Ross says, "So Uncle Bobby talked to you about the ranch." "Said he was selling the business to you." "And you're alright right it?" "Hell ya. Glad to have you in the cattle business neighbor. Maybe the Wade Ranch and South Fork can work out some partnerships to save money. You like share a helicopter between the two of us." "Sure I don't see why not." "Besides you're family. The only family I got in Texas, with your brother that is. Oh and I got to meet this sister of yours." "Come over anytime." "I been meaning to. I've got a little something to ask you cousin." "What is it?" "Things serious with you and Amy Anderson?" "No. She's just a friend." "So if I showed an interest in her?" "Really? No worries cousin. I'd be thrilled." "Good. Glad to hear it." "You do recall Chris is a cousin too?" "No. I got cousins in California and siblings in Europe. But I ain't got any other family here in Texas besides y'all. Chris has made that clear. I'm surprised you don't feel the same way." "I made grandma a promise I'd look out for him." "Well you do that. Far as I'm concerned he can stay a Shepard." "I'm worried about him in this new fight." "What new fight?" "Tridents going after CalcoHarwood and I'm afraid he's gonna loose control. I just remember what that did to my dad when he lost control of the company." "Tridents a pretty new company, kinda like David taking over Goliath." "Kinda yea." "Whose behind Trident?" "Most of the shares are owned by a variety of stockholders, mostly institutional. But twenty percent is owned by a Manama company, in class B shares." "What's that mean?" "Means that twenty percent gets more votes and it intends to keep it that way. They do but CalcoHarwood they own about five percent but those votes will be forty percent. That's control." "Who's behind this Manama company?" "That's what I'm looking for. But ya another?" "Sure thing, cousin." [/QUOTE]
