[QUOTE="Bobby Southworth, post: 443292, member: 4960"] This isn't really pertaining to the overall point at hand, well it is, and it isn't. Was Miss Ellie being unfair to J.R. and Jock, after J.R. was shot, and the Bobster was on his power kick and high horse? Perhaps, I mean, my first inclination was to say, hell yeah, but then I thought about how J.R. had mortgaged Southfork the season before.. All the stuff Ellie didn't even know about, pertaining to the Red file, and section 40. J.R. was kind of, just briefly, reaping what he had sowed here, in my opinion. Now, was she pushing for Bobby to stay on as president because of J.R's shady dealings..most likely, these weren't the things on her mind. She didn't want to lose another son. However, we also can't just ignore the fact that J.R. did something that impacted Miss Ellie so much, pertaining to her home. That said, I do think, given all the work J.R. put into Ewing Oil, under Jock as an understudy, then by his side, then on his own, Miss Ellie was kinda being selfish,here. I get the not wanting to lose another son angle, but..J.R. was her son, too. I don't know..this whole thing kinda has me torn.
