She takes it out of her purse and looks at the call identifier: it´s her mother.)S: Hi Mother. Sorry can´t talk now...Mandy: Where are you honey?S: I´ve just come out of a meeting, I´ll be there in fifteen minutes...M: A meeting so late? You ain´t with a secret fan, are you...?S: I have to hung down…M: You aren´t misbehaving again, are you Shania darlin´?S: What…?M: I mean you didn´t quit your meds…?S: Bye Mother. (Shania frowns and looks at the staircase direction. She hesitates for a second and then opens the door, walks out and locks it from outside...Cut to a shot of Sue Ellen laying on her bed.)SC.2: INT. –BARNES RANCH (FORMERLY KNOWN AS KREBBS RANCH)(Establishing shot of the ranch in the evening.

Pam and I have been thinking that this could be a ight time for our long-delayed honeymoon trip…C: Yeah…Three weddings and no honeymoon!B: When the hearing date for Madeleine´s trial was set, we thought everything was over, but they have to find her yet…C: You were lucky the Judge sentenced on you about the ranch ownership, otherwise it could have meant the end for Southfork.P: Yes, but that woman has been hurting a lot of people aside of us, and she should be put to justice and pay for what she´d done. Not to mention Clayton´s death…C: Do you know anything about Barbara?P: She and Julian are travelling around Europe right now. She told me to call her the minute we had news about the trial and they were needed at court. Too bad Dusty can´t be tracked down…C: Really? (Pam´s cell phone rings)P: Excuse me. Hello, Pam Ewing here. Oh Shania hi…Please talk slower…Oh my God. Can you go with her in the ambulance? Thank you so much. We´re at Braddock now but are leaving at this moment…(Bob and Cliff look at each other amazed. Then Pam hangs up and looks upset). Cliff, how long would it take to get your helicopter here?C: It´s near, I guess about five minutes.P: Then please call the pilot Cliff, please!B: Babe, what is it?P: Sue Ellen…(with tears in her eyes)SC.3: INT. – KREBBSES´ HOUSE AT SOUTHFORK HOTEL(General shot of the room. The three members of the family are having dinner silently)Donna: Are you finished sweetheart?Maggie: Yes.Ray: Is everything ok, baby?M: No…(Donna and Ray look at each other) Nothing´s ok.

There´s nothing wrong with that…M: (beginning to cry) …I…I…miss Christopher so badly, despite everything. I should be happy for him but…(Ray also gets up and holds his family)R: Let it go baby…This situation with Christopher is temporary. Who knows if some day, he´ll be living with us again.M: (crying) I know…but it hurts so much anyway…D: Keep your faith my darling.

How are the kids?C: Oh, just fine, the babysitter was home when you called. Is Sue Ellen gonna be alright?B: We don´t know yet, we are waiting for the doctor to come out…Shania: I´ll go get a coffee. Does anyone want some?P: Oh, she´s Sue Ellen´s assistant Cally, she found Sue Ellen and called an ambulance when she found her…No thanks Shania.

Next 24 hours will be critical: we have to check out the way her body has reacted to those big sums of alcohol.Pam (surprised): Thank you Doctor for telling us…Please keep us reported.Doctor: Of course, I will.

I will join you at the park lot.B: (noticing Shania) That´s fine. (They leave) How are you Shania?Shania: I´m ok…(begins to cry) I just…I just wish I had foreseen this. Everything´s there: she was worried about Dusty, Christopher, and was missing John Ross too. I shouldn´t have let her alone Pamela!P: Don´t blame yourself Shania…It´s no good.

Now we must find James and John Ross.B: Last night I called a friend of mine at the airport and asked him for help to find the Ewing jet, since it had changed its route. He´s confirmed it this morning, and also that the jet went to Paris after that.
