DALLAS-FORT WORTH AIRPORT</p><p></p><p>(SUE ELLEN walks with SHANIA, who is carrying a travel bag)</p><p></p><p>S.E.: I hope you enjoy the Virgin Islands, it´s a perfect place for heavenly holidays…</p><p>Shania: I still don´t know if I should go right now, Sue Ellen…</p><p>S.E.: Oh come on, dear, we all need a break and now it´s your time. You chose your substitute by yourself, I´m sure he will handle everything for a couple of weeks…</p><p>S: You didn´t mind I chose a man instead of a woman, did you? I know what you think of employing preferably women in your companies…</p><p>S.E.: It will good to have a man around, for a change, you know…he looks like a smart guy.(Hearing the airport information service) Oh that´s your flight, isn´t it? Shania: Well dear, thank you so much for this trip, and call me if you need anything… (she kisses Sue Ellen´s cheek)</p><p>S: Oh don´t be silly, absolutely not. Have a nice flight (she waves goodbye at her and turns around. Then Sue Ellen walks faster and gets out of the airport building. The camera pans back to Shania, who takes her cell phone and dials her mother´s number) Mother? It´s me. (Cut to Mandy´s first shot)</p><p>Mandy: Hi sweetheart, is anything wrong?</p><p>S: No, absolutely not. I just took a few days off on a holiday trip and wanted to make sure that I had no surprises when I´m back.</p><p>M: What do you mean Shania?</p><p>S: I know you have in mind that we´re running out of time and should reveal that I am J.R. Ewing´s heiress too.</p><p>M: Aren´t we?</p><p>S: First of all, I AM the one who´s J.R.´s daughter and timing is very important in all this. So please promise me that you won´t tell a thing about it until I´m back, until the Oil Barons´ Ball week.</p><p>M: That´s fine for me, Shania darling. The Ball would be a perfect place to get Sue Ellen embarrassed again and show the world what his husband was doing with me when she was still married to him.</p><p>S: Ok then. Hope you will be fine.</p><p>M: I´m always fine, sweetie. (Mandy hangs up as she arises one eyebrow. Meanwhile, at the airport, Sue Ellen is hearing a message and then a bleep)</p><p>SE: Hello Pamela. I hope you´re both are fine. I must talk to you, it´s sort of…important. I know you should be here by the Oil Barons´ Ball week, but I just need to talk to you. Please call me. Hugs to Bobby.(She hungs up and makes another call). Hi I´m Sue Ellen Shepard. I have an appointment with Dr. Chow. Would you please tell her I will be ten minutes late? Thank you).</p><p></p><p>SC.2 – INT. BILOXI SACRED HEART HOSPITAL</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the hospital. First shot of a baby, who turns out to be REBECCA´s one-day-old son. The camera pans away and we see CLIFF, AFTON, ARLISS and BECKIE holding the baby)</p><p></p><p>Afton: Isn´t he beautiful, Cliff?</p><p>Cliff: Oh sure, but overall he´s soo healthy…</p><p>Arliss: Doesn´t he look a little like Mitch, honey? (The four of them look more deeply into his face, a bit surprised)</p><p>Beckie: If he does, it´s a family resemblance, with no doubt!</p><p>Afton: Are you feeling alright, sweetheart?</p><p>B: I had a hard first night but last night, I could sleep at least nine hours. I feel great, well not great. I´m still weak but every time I see my baby I just want to get stronger to be able to go home…</p><p>Ar: Will you stay in Biloxi for some time?</p><p>Af (looking at Cliff): No, we will leave in a couple of days. Cliff wants to flaunt around his grandson!</p><p>C: I will take a flight later, I forgot to tell you…</p><p>Af: Oh come on Cliff, you have to come with us…</p><p>C: There´s some important stuff that must be done and I can´t delegate, sorry Afton. Now please let me some time alone with my darling, my very first darling… (Cliff smiles at Beckie. Afton holds her mother´s shoulder and they both exit the room as they call a nurse to take the baby. Finally they are alone)</p><p>B: What is it, dad?</p><p>C: So you know it´s a big deal already?</p><p>B: We both know what it is.</p><p>C: I´ll go to the point now Rebecca. I have to know one thing. Please give it a thought and tell me: Is it really over between you and that boy? You know I just want the best for you…</p><p>B: Yes it is. I don´t need to think about it. I had a big disappointment with him and don´t wanna see him again. I just need my baby and my family, and a good nice job. That´s all.</p><p>C: Are you sure? (Cliff gasps)</p><p>B: Yes.</p><p>C: So, when you´re back to Dallas, we will meet a specialist called Quentin Carpenter, he is an expert in neurofibromatosis and will follow the baby´s condition thoroughly during his first year. I´m sure everything´s gonna be fine Rebecca. And I want your Mama to be very very happy with me too. (Beckie holds his father. First shot of Cliff´s face)</p><p></p><p>SC.3 – EXT. SOUTHFORK LANDS, SMALL STABLE</p><p></p><p>(RAY is riding his horse through the Southfork lands and, suddenly, he sees someone at one of the West Wing stables: it´s a teenager. He calls him up and rides closer. The boy is LUCAS)</p><p></p><p>Ray: Hey you boy! Are you a new hand here?</p><p>Lucas: Er…No sir.</p><p>R: You know this is a private property right?</p><p>L: Sure. I work for…Mr. Callaway (he looks at the side of the Callaway ranch)</p><p>R: Oh sorry for being so rude. People get inside the property once in awhile, especially little groups of teenagers. I´m Ray Krebbs, co-owner of the Southfork Ranch (he holds Lucas´s hand).</p><p>L (surprised): Aha. My name is…Joel.</p><p>R (nodding): Nice to meet ya boy.</p><p>L: It´s my time off and I just took a walk, sorry for intruding…</p><p>R: No worry. Send my regards to the Callaways, they´re nice people. They bought the ranch in the 70´s and took a real good care of it. I wish they stay around…Many people are selling off their lands…</p><p>L: Weren´t they the original owners?</p><p>R (twinking and looking a little suspicious): No. The Wades did (his face turns somber).</p><p>L: Why did they sell out?</p><p>R: Shouldn´t ye go back to work now Joel? That´s not your business…</p><p>L: Sorry, I didn´t want to gossip around…</p><p>R: It´s ok Joel. (He rides away sadly as Lucas watches him leave) (The song “Dreamer” by Toni Childs begins to play)</p><p>L: Oh yeah, it IS my business. Whose damned business would it be?!</p><p></p><p style="text-align: center">"Can’t stop, stop the hurting</p> <p style="text-align: center">Can’t stop, stop the breathing</p> <p style="text-align: center">Can’t stop, stop these tears for you my dear</p> <p style="text-align: center">Don’t know why it’s so bad</p> <p style="text-align: center">This life’s been so bad</p> <p style="text-align: center">I’m glad I finally found you here.</p> <p style="text-align: center">You’re the voice of a dream I had</p> <p style="text-align: center">You’re the voice and I’m so glad</p> <p style="text-align: center">You’re the weight of a dream of a life come true</p> <p style="text-align: center">There’s no denying</p> <p style="text-align: center">I sometimes run and chase the moon</p> <p style="text-align: center">I just can</p> <p style="text-align: center">I sometimes run and chase the views</p> <p style="text-align: center">And dream of you"</p><p></p><p>(FADE OUT AND END OF ACT ONE)</p><p></p><p>SC.4 – DALLAS DOWNTOWN</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the center of Dallas, and zoom into one of the windows of a medium tall building. It´s the practice of Dr. CHOW, CLIFF´s former secretary and now psycho-therapist. First shot of SUE ELLEN)</p><p></p><p>S.E: I´m glad my friend gave me your telephone number before she left, Dr. Chow. Pamela´s my best friend and she´s been away so long…I miss her.</p><p>C: Go on.</p><p>S.E: I have so many things on my mind now…I´m a little lost. I thought that here, doing therapy again, would change things…</p><p>C: Do you mean I´m not helping Sue Ellen?</p><p>S.E: Oh no, of course not. Sorry if I sounded like that. But it´s getting harder and harder to keep the things going…after…you know, after the accident.</p><p>C: Your suicide attempt?</p><p>S.E: I did NOT. Probably, I´m definitely sure about that. I know that there are evidences that I was drinking again that night and also, the sleeping pill intoxication. But as far as I admit that I used to be a very dependent person, I know that there was something else going on that explained the whole “accident”.</p><p>C: All right. Please go on.</p><p>SE: I wish…I could talk to someone else about these things, as I used to. With Pam, for example. I want to make my own decisions about my work, my family: the problem with John Ross, who seems to have run away from me. The friend I helped financially lately, you know, the one who was…in a relationship with me years ago. And that woman from my office. It´s a strange feeling, but I have the impression that she´d hiding things from me…</p><p>C: We all do. That doesn´t mean she is not a reliable person. She must be marking a line between private and public.</p><p>SE: Yes, I do understand that. And public attention is another thing that is making me angry now. I get it in a more agressive way…</p><p>C: Do you mean that being a public person was easier for you, let´s say, thirty years ago?</p><p>SE: No. Oh no...(smiling to herself)</p><p>C: So?</p><p>SE: Probably, I am much more sensitive about everything now. That´s what makes the difference. (The doctor nods) What about my friend?</p><p>C: What do you want from him? Friendship or a love affair?</p><p>SE: I want…something in between. But I want to keep him as a friend, above all things.</p><p>C: Do you want to have sex with him? (Sue Ellen looks a bit blushed up)</p><p>SE: I…I don´t know.</p><p>C: The way I see it, you have been taking chances on everything for some years, and you seem to rely on what is more secure to you. Making choices doesn´t get easier through time, Sue Ellen, but you can´t expect from anyone else to what you have to do…(The patient wide opens her eyes)</p><p></p><p>SC.4 – INT. WESTFORK INDUSTRIES BUILDING, DALLAS</p><p></p><p>(Gary is working on his computer. The intercom bleeps and her secretary talks)</p><p></p><p>Janine (off-screen): Gary, you have a visit here…</p><p>Gary (absent-minded): Oh who is it?</p><p>Woman (opening the door): It´s me.</p><p>G (smiling a big smile): Olivia, what a nice surprise! (He gets up and walks to her. They kiss and then she holds him)</p><p>Olivia: I have been missing you so much, Gary.</p><p>G: Take a seat. (Pointing at a couch)</p><p>O: Thank you.</p><p>G: How come you are in Dallas?</p><p>O: I got an email from your son, we´ve been keeping in touch, you know, and I thought it was a good time to see my ex-daddy.</p><p>G: So you know that Valene and I are living apart?</p><p>O: Yes.</p><p>G: Let´s have lunch sweetheart. It´s not something easy to talk about.</p><p>O: Ok. (They walk towards the door)</p><p>G: By the way, how are your brother and mother?</p><p>O: Great. Mother is her usual: absolutely fabulous...</p><p></p><p>SC.5 – EXT. CALLAWAY PROPERTY, BRADDOCK</p><p></p><p>(Afternoon. Lucas walks towards a gravestone. There are two names on it. One says “Lucas Wade. Beloved husband and father.” The other one: “Jenna Wade. Your family will never forget you.” Each gravestone has two dates for every person. Lucas puts on his knees and begins to cry silently. Cut to Flashback Scene)</p><p></p><p>SC.6- FLASHBACK SCENE, SWISS HOUSE</p><p></p><p>(Shot of a five-year-old Lucas Wade alone in his bedroom, as he listens to his parents Ray and Jenna argue loudly)</p><p></p><p>J.: Ray, where are you supposedly goin´?</p><p>R.: Bob has the rights to see…Lucas is a Ewing…</p><p>J.: You won´t steal Bobby´s child, oh no, hell…</p><p>R.: Try to stop me. (Ray gets into the bedroom) Let´s go Lucas.(Jenna tries to take the child away from him but she can´t. Ray takes the baby and they both leave the house, as we hear a thunder. Cut to the current time: Lucas looks at the sky, as if it would be starting to rain… (FADE OUT AND END OF ACT TWO)</p><p></p><p>SC.6 – LIVING-ROOM, SOUTHFORK RANCH</p><p></p><p>(General shot of RAY, DONNA, MAGGIE, GARY and OLIVIA chatting)</p><p></p><p>O: So Bobby and Pam are having their first honeymoon trip after all these years?</p><p>Donna: Yes, they were very happy about it, though they had had a lot of stress over them recently.</p><p>O: I read about Christopher´s death, I am really sorry about it…(Ray, Donna and Maggie look at Gary)</p><p>G: It´s been hard for all of us since we lost the Southfork property.</p><p>O: But you got it back didn´t you?</p><p>Ray: The problem, Olivia, is that the person responsible for that was also responsible for Clayton Farlow´s death.</p><p>G: Clayton was my mother´s second husband, Olivia.</p><p>O: Oh that´s awful…Is she in jail?</p><p>Donna: Sadly, she vanished when we got proofs of that, dear.</p><p>R: Where are you living now Olivia?</p><p>O: I live in San Francisco, I own an antique shop there.</p><p>D: There must be great to work on that stuff every day, my first husband used to collect antique works…</p><p>O: Oh really? (Ray and Gary go to the bar)</p><p>R: Have you seen Val lately?</p><p>G: No, actually not. I´m not sure how to do it, but I know it´s time to face her and talk our differences out.</p><p>R: Maybe Olivia could help you with that…She was friends with Val, wasn´t she?</p><p>G: Yeah, they were close friends since the day they came into Knots Landing…</p><p>R: She looks like a smart, pretty lady. Asking for help is not always easy but the Ewings stick together when something goes wrong, and that´s not different with you, brother…</p><p>G: Thank you Ray. I appreciate that. (They click their glasses)</p><p></p><p>SC.7 – SUE ELLEN´S MANOR, DALLAS</p><p></p><p>(Evening. Establishing shot of the house. CALLY walks into her daughter ELLIE´s bedroom)</p><p></p><p>Cally: May I come in baby?</p><p>Ellie (distant): Yes. (The girl is sitting at her laptop, and closes it down)</p><p>C: I want to talk with you Ellie.</p><p>E (turning around): I wish you had done it long before.</p><p>C (looking sad): I know that. But I want to be totally honest with you. Will you let me explain to me the whole truth?</p><p>E: Are you going to tell me how you met my father…J.R. Ewing?</p><p>C: If you let me…</p><p>E: All right. (Cally holds her daughter´s hands and smiles. FADE OUT AND END OF ACT THREE)</p><p></p><p>SC.8 – CLARIDGE HOTEL, LONDON</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the hotel and zoom into one of the rooms. Travelling into a couple, who turns out to be BARBARA and JULIAN, dressed in formal clothes)</p><p></p><p>Barbara: I thought you were enjoying the cocktail, Julian.</p><p>Julian: And I was. But I had better things in mind (kissing her neck).</p><p>B: I wonder what it can be…Remember we have a very important mission to do here in London.</p><p>J: It´s almost over love. Soon we will able to go back to Dallas…</p><p>B: Is that what you want Julian? I mean, what you really want?</p><p>J (serious): Of course, why shouldn´t I?</p><p>B: Well, we have been living in Europe for several months and our life has been quiet, much more than before…After that whirlwind happened in Southfork...</p><p>J: That was a true masquerade, I remember how hot you looked on that costume…</p><p>B: We have a family there, Bobby and Pam, Ray and Donna, Lucy, Gary and Val…That´s my family and I don’t wanna be so far away from them…but, I would understand if you preferred…a European way of life.</p><p>J: You won´t get rid of me just like that…(they kiss passionately).</p><p>B: Well, I´ll have to pack up. I must take a flight to Dallas although I´d rather have you with me…</p><p>J: I´ll let you something to remember…(Travelling out of scene. Fade out to next scene. Barbara is packing up and suddenly she stops…she seems to have heard something. But goes on and finishes her task).</p><p></p><p>SC.9 – SUE ELLEN´S GYM, SHEPARD OFFICES BUILDING</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the building. Travelling of the working-room. JOHN ROSS gets into the place.)</p><p></p><p>John Ross (says hello to a couple of persons): Hello, how are you? (someone turns around: it´s Andrea, who walks towards him) Andrea: Hi John Ross.

I come here since I became independent…</p><p>A: Oh, I´ve been coming here for a couple of months only…I´d better go jogging when I live in a proper place.JR: How´s everything since last time?</p><p>A: Great! I loved our dinner. Would you like to repeat it, this time in my house?</p><p>JR: I have a family reunion today, and I can´t miss it. Maybe next week…</p><p>A: (smiling a big smile) Ok. Care yourself, John Ross. And don´t overwork…</p><p>JR: I won´t, don´t worry…(J.R. smiles back and begins to raise weighs)</p><p></p><p>SC.10 – LONDON BRIDGE BY THAMES</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the bridge and zoom into one of the corners.

I won´t let anything to spoil it!</p><p>Gene: It´s a done deal, at least for me. Everything is ready to get rid of him!</p><p>M.: I´m paying you a fortune for it, don´t disappoint me: they are two cads and, if you´ll have to kill both of them, if things go wrong. Anyway she will be taking a plane this afternoon…and she´ll never see him again.</p><p>G.: (taking a picture out of his pocket) A young man and an older woman, they sort of make a nice couple…</p><p>M.: Don´t joke with serious subjects, Gene. There´s a lot at stake here. You will be a rich man soon and all depends on you…killing Julian.</p><p>G.: Trust me, your friend is a dead man already…(They keep on walking. FADE OUT AND END OF ACT FOUR)</p><p></p><p>SC.11 - SOUTHFORK DINNER</p><p></p><p>(Establishing shot of the attendants: Gary, Olivia, Ray, Donna, John Ross, Cally, James and the children, Ellie and Jimmy)</p><p></p><p>Olivia: I love the new decoration, Donna, it looks fabulous! Donna: Thank you Olivia. It´s not all my merit, Val has helped me too (looking at Gary, who looks down). She had a great time doing it.</p><p>O: Why isn´t she here?</p><p>D: She had a headache and didn´t want to travel from Galveston (looking seriously at Gary).</p><p>G: We can visit her tomorrow, she´ll love seeing you again, Olivia.</p><p>Jimmy: What do you prefer, California or Dallas, Olivia?</p><p>O: Well, that´s a funny question.

Jimmy will love the experience and learn to shoot well…</p><p>Ji: I already shoot well!</p><p>C: No you don´t and you´re too young by now.</p><p>Ji: You don´t know anything about it. And you´re not my mother either!!</p><p>J: Jimmy! Be respectful to Cally and apologize! (Ray and Donna look at each other)</p><p>Ji: I´m sorry Cally. May I get up now?</p><p>C: Ok, get up boys. You too darling…(holding Ellie´s hand. They get out of the room and out to the terrace) Ellie is having a bad time since she found out that JR was his daddy…</p><p>D: I guess she had to know some day, hadn´t she?</p><p>R: Ellie is a sensitive girl, I´m sure that she will soon assume what that implies…</p><p>C: You mean what being J.R.´s daughter implies…? (James holds her hand)</p><p>She is James´s and my daughter, no matter where she came from…</p><p></p><p>SC.12 – BRADDOCK ROAD</p><p></p><p>(The next day, Cliff returns to his house. On his way there, he stops his limo near the Callaways, just by Lucas´ footsteps.)</p><p></p><p>Cliff: Hey boy! Are you the Callaways´ new assistant?</p><p>Lucas: Yep, I guess so. I clean up the pool. Among other things.</p><p>C: Get on the car boy!</p><p>L: What´s the problem?</p><p>C: Nothing. I´m your neighbor. I just want to talk to you about a couple of things…(Lucas eventually gets on the limo and Cliff closes the door. Cut into next scene. Establishing shot of the Campbell Center, where is Cliff´s office. Lucas is sitting face to face with Cliff) I´ll go to the point boy. I know you are not Joel…Lucas.</p><p>L: What the hell! Let me get out of here!</p><p>C: You are Lucas Wade, aren´t you?

And I want you out of her life forever. She is out on a holiday. I´m just trying to protect them now…if I can. I´m trying to maintain some kind of privacy for my family. And there´s someone who isn´t included here: you.</p><p></p><p>SC.13 – CLARIDGE HOTEL, LONDON, BARBARA AND JULIAN´S ROOM</p><p></p><p>(Slow zoom into the room. No sign of Barbara´s baggage and the bed is made up. The camera turns into the right towards the shower-room. Julian is having a shower.

[QUOTE="Piggyrella Sanderson, post: 255314, member: 82"] [CENTER][ATTACH type="full" alt="1612373469725.png"]24786[/ATTACH] [B]Episode 22: BORDERLINE (PART 1)[/B] [/CENTER] SC.1 – EXT. DALLAS-FORT WORTH AIRPORT (SUE ELLEN walks with SHANIA, who is carrying a travel bag) S.E.: I hope you enjoy the Virgin Islands, it´s a perfect place for heavenly holidays… Shania: I still don´t know if I should go right now, Sue Ellen… S.E.: Oh come on, dear, we all need a break and now it´s your time. You chose your substitute by yourself, I´m sure he will handle everything for a couple of weeks… S: You didn´t mind I chose a man instead of a woman, did you? I know what you think of employing preferably women in your companies… S.E.: It will good to have a man around, for a change, you know…he looks like a smart guy.(Hearing the airport information service) Oh that´s your flight, isn´t it? Shania: Well dear, thank you so much for this trip, and call me if you need anything… (she kisses Sue Ellen´s cheek) S: Oh don´t be silly, absolutely not. Have a nice flight (she waves goodbye at her and turns around. Then Sue Ellen walks faster and gets out of the airport building. The camera pans back to Shania, who takes her cell phone and dials her mother´s number) Mother? It´s me. (Cut to Mandy´s first shot) Mandy: Hi sweetheart, is anything wrong? S: No, absolutely not. I just took a few days off on a holiday trip and wanted to make sure that I had no surprises when I´m back. M: What do you mean Shania? S: I know you have in mind that we´re running out of time and should reveal that I am J.R. Ewing´s heiress too. M: Aren´t we? S: First of all, I AM the one who´s J.R.´s daughter and timing is very important in all this. So please promise me that you won´t tell a thing about it until I´m back, until the Oil Barons´ Ball week. M: That´s fine for me, Shania darling. The Ball would be a perfect place to get Sue Ellen embarrassed again and show the world what his husband was doing with me when she was still married to him. S: Ok then. Hope you will be fine. M: I´m always fine, sweetie. (Mandy hangs up as she arises one eyebrow. Meanwhile, at the airport, Sue Ellen is hearing a message and then a bleep) SE: Hello Pamela. I hope you´re both are fine. I must talk to you, it´s sort of…important. I know you should be here by the Oil Barons´ Ball week, but I just need to talk to you. Please call me. Hugs to Bobby.(She hungs up and makes another call). Hi I´m Sue Ellen Shepard. I have an appointment with Dr. Chow. Would you please tell her I will be ten minutes late? Thank you). SC.2 – INT. BILOXI SACRED HEART HOSPITAL (Establishing shot of the hospital. First shot of a baby, who turns out to be REBECCA´s one-day-old son. The camera pans away and we see CLIFF, AFTON, ARLISS and BECKIE holding the baby) Afton: Isn´t he beautiful, Cliff? Cliff: Oh sure, but overall he´s soo healthy… Arliss: Doesn´t he look a little like Mitch, honey? (The four of them look more deeply into his face, a bit surprised) Beckie: If he does, it´s a family resemblance, with no doubt! Afton: Are you feeling alright, sweetheart? B: I had a hard first night but last night, I could sleep at least nine hours. I feel great, well not great. I´m still weak but every time I see my baby I just want to get stronger to be able to go home… Ar: Will you stay in Biloxi for some time? Af (looking at Cliff): No, we will leave in a couple of days. Cliff wants to flaunt around his grandson! C: I will take a flight later, I forgot to tell you… Af: Oh come on Cliff, you have to come with us… C: There´s some important stuff that must be done and I can´t delegate, sorry Afton. Now please let me some time alone with my darling, my very first darling… (Cliff smiles at Beckie. Afton holds her mother´s shoulder and they both exit the room as they call a nurse to take the baby. Finally they are alone) B: What is it, dad? C: So you know it´s a big deal already? B: We both know what it is. C: I´ll go to the point now Rebecca. I have to know one thing. Please give it a thought and tell me: Is it really over between you and that boy? You know I just want the best for you… B: Yes it is. I don´t need to think about it. I had a big disappointment with him and don´t wanna see him again. I just need my baby and my family, and a good nice job. That´s all. C: Are you sure? (Cliff gasps) B: Yes. C: So, when you´re back to Dallas, we will meet a specialist called Quentin Carpenter, he is an expert in neurofibromatosis and will follow the baby´s condition thoroughly during his first year. I´m sure everything´s gonna be fine Rebecca. And I want your Mama to be very very happy with me too. (Beckie holds his father. First shot of Cliff´s face) SC.3 – EXT. SOUTHFORK LANDS, SMALL STABLE (RAY is riding his horse through the Southfork lands and, suddenly, he sees someone at one of the West Wing stables: it´s a teenager. He calls him up and rides closer. The boy is LUCAS) Ray: Hey you boy! Are you a new hand here? Lucas: Er…No sir. R: You know this is a private property right? L: Sure. I work for…Mr. Callaway (he looks at the side of the Callaway ranch) R: Oh sorry for being so rude. People get inside the property once in awhile, especially little groups of teenagers. I´m Ray Krebbs, co-owner of the Southfork Ranch (he holds Lucas´s hand). L (surprised): Aha. My name is…Joel. R (nodding): Nice to meet ya boy. L: It´s my time off and I just took a walk, sorry for intruding… R: No worry. Send my regards to the Callaways, they´re nice people. They bought the ranch in the 70´s and took a real good care of it. I wish they stay around…Many people are selling off their lands… L: Weren´t they the original owners? R (twinking and looking a little suspicious): No. The Wades did (his face turns somber). L: Why did they sell out? R: Shouldn´t ye go back to work now Joel? That´s not your business… L: Sorry, I didn´t want to gossip around… R: It´s ok Joel. (He rides away sadly as Lucas watches him leave) (The song “Dreamer” by Toni Childs begins to play) L: Oh yeah, it IS my business. Whose damned business would it be?! [CENTER]"Can’t stop, stop the hurting Can’t stop, stop the breathing Can’t stop, stop these tears for you my dear Don’t know why it’s so bad This life’s been so bad I’m glad I finally found you here. You’re the voice of a dream I had You’re the voice and I’m so glad You’re the weight of a dream of a life come true There’s no denying I sometimes run and chase the moon I just can I sometimes run and chase the views And dream of you"[/CENTER] (FADE OUT AND END OF ACT ONE) SC.4 – DALLAS DOWNTOWN (Establishing shot of the center of Dallas, and zoom into one of the windows of a medium tall building. It´s the practice of Dr. CHOW, CLIFF´s former secretary and now psycho-therapist. First shot of SUE ELLEN) S.E: I´m glad my friend gave me your telephone number before she left, Dr. Chow. Pamela´s my best friend and she´s been away so long…I miss her. C: Go on. S.E: I have so many things on my mind now…I´m a little lost. I thought that here, doing therapy again, would change things… C: Do you mean I´m not helping Sue Ellen? S.E: Oh no, of course not. Sorry if I sounded like that. But it´s getting harder and harder to keep the things going…after…you know, after the accident. C: Your suicide attempt? S.E: I did NOT. Probably, I´m definitely sure about that. I know that there are evidences that I was drinking again that night and also, the sleeping pill intoxication. But as far as I admit that I used to be a very dependent person, I know that there was something else going on that explained the whole “accident”. C: All right. Please go on. SE: I wish…I could talk to someone else about these things, as I used to. With Pam, for example. I want to make my own decisions about my work, my family: the problem with John Ross, who seems to have run away from me. The friend I helped financially lately, you know, the one who was…in a relationship with me years ago. And that woman from my office. It´s a strange feeling, but I have the impression that she´d hiding things from me… C: We all do. That doesn´t mean she is not a reliable person. She must be marking a line between private and public. SE: Yes, I do understand that. And public attention is another thing that is making me angry now. I get it in a more agressive way… C: Do you mean that being a public person was easier for you, let´s say, thirty years ago? SE: No. Oh no...(smiling to herself) C: So? SE: Probably, I am much more sensitive about everything now. That´s what makes the difference. (The doctor nods) What about my friend? C: What do you want from him? Friendship or a love affair? SE: I want…something in between. But I want to keep him as a friend, above all things. C: Do you want to have sex with him? (Sue Ellen looks a bit blushed up) SE: I…I don´t know. C: The way I see it, you have been taking chances on everything for some years, and you seem to rely on what is more secure to you. Making choices doesn´t get easier through time, Sue Ellen, but you can´t expect from anyone else to what you have to do…(The patient wide opens her eyes) SC.4 – INT. WESTFORK INDUSTRIES BUILDING, DALLAS (Gary is working on his computer. The intercom bleeps and her secretary talks) Janine (off-screen): Gary, you have a visit here… Gary (absent-minded): Oh who is it? Woman (opening the door): It´s me. G (smiling a big smile): Olivia, what a nice surprise! (He gets up and walks to her. They kiss and then she holds him) Olivia: I have been missing you so much, Gary. G: Take a seat. (Pointing at a couch) O: Thank you. G: How come you are in Dallas? O: I got an email from your son, we´ve been keeping in touch, you know, and I thought it was a good time to see my ex-daddy. G: So you know that Valene and I are living apart? O: Yes. G: Let´s have lunch sweetheart. It´s not something easy to talk about. O: Ok. (They walk towards the door) G: By the way, how are your brother and mother? O: Great. Mother is her usual: absolutely fabulous... SC.5 – EXT. CALLAWAY PROPERTY, BRADDOCK (Afternoon. Lucas walks towards a gravestone. There are two names on it. One says “Lucas Wade. Beloved husband and father.” The other one: “Jenna Wade. Your family will never forget you.” Each gravestone has two dates for every person. Lucas puts on his knees and begins to cry silently. Cut to Flashback Scene) SC.6- FLASHBACK SCENE, SWISS HOUSE (Shot of a five-year-old Lucas Wade alone in his bedroom, as he listens to his parents Ray and Jenna argue loudly) J.: Ray, where are you supposedly goin´? R.: Bob has the rights to see…Lucas is a Ewing… J.: You won´t steal Bobby´s child, oh no, hell… R.: Try to stop me. (Ray gets into the bedroom) Let´s go Lucas.(Jenna tries to take the child away from him but she can´t. Ray takes the baby and they both leave the house, as we hear a thunder. Cut to the current time: Lucas looks at the sky, as if it would be starting to rain… (FADE OUT AND END OF ACT TWO) SC.6 – LIVING-ROOM, SOUTHFORK RANCH (General shot of RAY, DONNA, MAGGIE, GARY and OLIVIA chatting) O: So Bobby and Pam are having their first honeymoon trip after all these years? Donna: Yes, they were very happy about it, though they had had a lot of stress over them recently. O: I read about Christopher´s death, I am really sorry about it…(Ray, Donna and Maggie look at Gary) G: It´s been hard for all of us since we lost the Southfork property. O: But you got it back didn´t you? Ray: The problem, Olivia, is that the person responsible for that was also responsible for Clayton Farlow´s death. G: Clayton was my mother´s second husband, Olivia. O: Oh that´s awful…Is she in jail? Donna: Sadly, she vanished when we got proofs of that, dear. R: Where are you living now Olivia? O: I live in San Francisco, I own an antique shop there. D: There must be great to work on that stuff every day, my first husband used to collect antique works… O: Oh really? (Ray and Gary go to the bar) R: Have you seen Val lately? G: No, actually not. I´m not sure how to do it, but I know it´s time to face her and talk our differences out. R: Maybe Olivia could help you with that…She was friends with Val, wasn´t she? G: Yeah, they were close friends since the day they came into Knots Landing… R: She looks like a smart, pretty lady. Asking for help is not always easy but the Ewings stick together when something goes wrong, and that´s not different with you, brother… G: Thank you Ray. I appreciate that. (They click their glasses) SC.7 – SUE ELLEN´S MANOR, DALLAS (Evening. Establishing shot of the house. CALLY walks into her daughter ELLIE´s bedroom) Cally: May I come in baby? Ellie (distant): Yes. (The girl is sitting at her laptop, and closes it down) C: I want to talk with you Ellie. E (turning around): I wish you had done it long before. C (looking sad): I know that. But I want to be totally honest with you. Will you let me explain to me the whole truth? E: Are you going to tell me how you met my father…J.R. Ewing? C: If you let me… E: All right. (Cally holds her daughter´s hands and smiles. FADE OUT AND END OF ACT THREE) SC.8 – CLARIDGE HOTEL, LONDON (Establishing shot of the hotel and zoom into one of the rooms. Travelling into a couple, who turns out to be BARBARA and JULIAN, dressed in formal clothes) Barbara: I thought you were enjoying the cocktail, Julian. Julian: And I was. But I had better things in mind (kissing her neck). B: I wonder what it can be…Remember we have a very important mission to do here in London. J: It´s almost over love. Soon we will able to go back to Dallas… B: Is that what you want Julian? I mean, what you really want? J (serious): Of course, why shouldn´t I? B: Well, we have been living in Europe for several months and our life has been quiet, much more than before…After that whirlwind happened in Southfork... J: That was a true masquerade, I remember how hot you looked on that costume… B: We have a family there, Bobby and Pam, Ray and Donna, Lucy, Gary and Val…That´s my family and I don’t wanna be so far away from them…but, I would understand if you preferred…a European way of life. J: You won´t get rid of me just like that…(they kiss passionately). B: Well, I´ll have to pack up. I must take a flight to Dallas although I´d rather have you with me… J: I´ll let you something to remember…(Travelling out of scene. Fade out to next scene. Barbara is packing up and suddenly she stops…she seems to have heard something. But goes on and finishes her task). SC.9 – SUE ELLEN´S GYM, SHEPARD OFFICES BUILDING (Establishing shot of the building. Travelling of the working-room. JOHN ROSS gets into the place.) John Ross (says hello to a couple of persons): Hello, how are you? (someone turns around: it´s Andrea, who walks towards him) Andrea: Hi John Ross. I´m glad to see you again. JR: Me too. A: Do you come here often? JR: In fact, this gym belong to my mother. I come here since I became independent… A: Oh, I´ve been coming here for a couple of months only…I´d better go jogging when I live in a proper place.JR: How´s everything since last time? A: Great! I loved our dinner. Would you like to repeat it, this time in my house? JR: I have a family reunion today, and I can´t miss it. Maybe next week… A: (smiling a big smile) Ok. Care yourself, John Ross. And don´t overwork… JR: I won´t, don´t worry…(J.R. smiles back and begins to raise weighs) SC.10 – LONDON BRIDGE BY THAMES (Establishing shot of the bridge and zoom into one of the corners. Travelling into a couple, who turns out to be MADELEINE and her former driver, dressed in informal clothes) Madeleine: We´re close, we´re real close. I won´t let anything to spoil it! Gene: It´s a done deal, at least for me. Everything is ready to get rid of him! M.: I´m paying you a fortune for it, don´t disappoint me: they are two cads and, if you´ll have to kill both of them, if things go wrong. Anyway she will be taking a plane this afternoon…and she´ll never see him again. G.: (taking a picture out of his pocket) A young man and an older woman, they sort of make a nice couple… M.: Don´t joke with serious subjects, Gene. There´s a lot at stake here. You will be a rich man soon and all depends on you…killing Julian. G.: Trust me, your friend is a dead man already…(They keep on walking. FADE OUT AND END OF ACT FOUR) SC.11 - SOUTHFORK DINNER (Establishing shot of the attendants: Gary, Olivia, Ray, Donna, John Ross, Cally, James and the children, Ellie and Jimmy) Olivia: I love the new decoration, Donna, it looks fabulous! Donna: Thank you Olivia. It´s not all my merit, Val has helped me too (looking at Gary, who looks down). She had a great time doing it. O: Why isn´t she here? D: She had a headache and didn´t want to travel from Galveston (looking seriously at Gary). G: We can visit her tomorrow, she´ll love seeing you again, Olivia. Jimmy: What do you prefer, California or Dallas, Olivia? O: Well, that´s a funny question. I don´t mind living at the East or West, as well as there´s a beach near. I love swimming. Ji: So do I! C: Aren´t you hungry dear? (to Ellie) Ellie: No, may I get up? C: Wait until we´re all finished sweetie. E: Ok. (Sad) JR: What about that planned hunting we talked about, James? J: (looking at Cally) I´m not sure it´s a good idea… JR: Come on, we don´t have to go to Haleyville, there´s plenty of places to hunt. Jimmy will love the experience and learn to shoot well… Ji: I already shoot well! C: No you don´t and you´re too young by now. Ji: You don´t know anything about it. And you´re not my mother either!! J: Jimmy! Be respectful to Cally and apologize! (Ray and Donna look at each other) Ji: I´m sorry Cally. May I get up now? C: Ok, get up boys. You too darling…(holding Ellie´s hand. They get out of the room and out to the terrace) Ellie is having a bad time since she found out that JR was his daddy… D: I guess she had to know some day, hadn´t she? R: Ellie is a sensitive girl, I´m sure that she will soon assume what that implies… C: You mean what being J.R.´s daughter implies…? (James holds her hand) She is James´s and my daughter, no matter where she came from… SC.12 – BRADDOCK ROAD (The next day, Cliff returns to his house. On his way there, he stops his limo near the Callaways, just by Lucas´ footsteps.) Cliff: Hey boy! Are you the Callaways´ new assistant? Lucas: Yep, I guess so. I clean up the pool. Among other things. C: Get on the car boy! L: What´s the problem? C: Nothing. I´m your neighbor. I just want to talk to you about a couple of things…(Lucas eventually gets on the limo and Cliff closes the door. Cut into next scene. Establishing shot of the Campbell Center, where is Cliff´s office. Lucas is sitting face to face with Cliff) I´ll go to the point boy. I know you are not Joel…Lucas. L: What the hell! Let me get out of here! C: You are Lucas Wade, aren´t you? And your mother used to be the owner of the ranch you´re working at now. L: Why do you care? C: Let me be honest: I don´t care. But I do care about my daughter Rebecca. And I want you out of her life forever. She is out on a holiday. I´m just trying to protect them now…if I can. I´m trying to maintain some kind of privacy for my family. And there´s someone who isn´t included here: you. SC.13 – CLARIDGE HOTEL, LONDON, BARBARA AND JULIAN´S ROOM (Slow zoom into the room. No sign of Barbara´s baggage and the bed is made up. The camera turns into the right towards the shower-room. Julian is having a shower. Suddenly we see an arm with a glove, opening the door and entering the place. Suddenly, we hear two silenced shots through the curtain. The song “Dreamer” is played all over again) [CENTER][B]End of Episode 22[/B] "Can’t stop, stop the hurting Can’t stop, stop the breathing Can’t stop, stop these tears for you my dear Don’t know why it’s so bad This life’s been so bad I’m glad I finally found you here.
