@Miss Texas 1967 and @Karin Schill: My point was not to compare "apples and pears", but I guess it somehow got lost! 
Thank you everyone for your feedback and comments. It's always appreciated.
Sanda, I'm glad that you still love this story.
Ms Southworth, well I wouldn't call it a crush. But we did think Randy was a total hunk. We didn't know he was portrayed by Brad Pitt at the time we wrote this episode though. We only learnt about that some years later and then we had a good laugh about it.
But yes when I originally watched the show I sympathzised with Charlie and thought Ray was totally unfair to her and Randy. So I was totally on her side.
I'm glad you found the scene where they were looking at the houses funny. It was meant to be.
Miss Texas 1967 thanks for writing such a detailed response. I think you made an excellent analysis of JR/SE and their relationship with John Ross. It makes perfect sense to me as I've never perceived JR/SE as bad parents. I think they did the best they could with John Ross and on several occasions they did show that they loved their son. Like you pointed out Sue Ellen let John Ross decide where he lived in "No Greater Love" after she realized he was happier at Southfork. She put his needs above her own which was the selfless thing to do. Then as for JR I think he was trying too hard to make up for lost time with James and that's why John Ross felt so sidelined. He also got too enthralled with his grandson. But except for that JR did love his son. Sure he used him at times but from the moment when he picked him up from that crib it was love. So yes I agree with your analysis of them.
Tommie, thanks for explaining about Jenna. It's funny that some of the stuff that went on your nerves I loved. I mean I loved that she actually took the time to grieve for Bobby after his death. Unlike Pam who just moved on to Mark Graison in a heartbeat like if what she and Bobby had shared meant nothing at all. So I much preferred Jenna's way of grieving. Also let's not forget that Donna chose to leave Ray. I don't think anything would have developed between Jenna & Ray if they hadn't both been abandoned by the people they really loved and hence they found comfort in each other as it was better than being alone. Then as for the Naldo murder mystery, you do know that if that hadn't happened Jenna would have been married to Bobby!
So I think all Bobby and Pam fans should be grateful she ended up in jail or else Bobby and Pam probably wouldn't have been reconciled.
Update will follow in the next post.

The next morning at Southfork Ranch, Miss Ellie, Clayton, JR, Sue Ellen, John Ross, Bobby, Pam, Christopher, Rebecca, Donna, Ray, Margaret, Lucy and Mitch were sitting outdoors eating breakfast. Margaret was standing up by her chair as if she was giving a lecture. The others were not really that interested in what she had to say but pretended to listen anyway to be polite. “And that ends my political information for now,” Margaret finally finished her lecture of the day and sat back down at the table.
“A round of applause for little Margaret,” Donna said proudly before she started to clap her hands. Ray, Miss Ellie and Clayton politely applauded too, while the others looked bored.
“Thank you,” Margaret said politely, before she sat down and reached for her sandwich.
“Finally, I thought that would never end,” Mitch whispered to Lucy.
“Yeah listening to facts about politics ain’t my favorite way to start the morning,” Lucy agreed.
“Listen Margaret I’ve got a surprise for you today,” Ray said.
“What is it?” Margaret asked excitedly.
Donna laughed and Ray smiled when he saw the smile on his daughter’s face, “Today I’m gonna teach you how to ride a horse!” Ray finally revealed what it was.
“Really?” Margaret asked.
“A tip if you care about her, don’t give her JRs’ horse,” Mitch said.
“Hey don’t blame my horse, it was that snake’s fault you fell off,” JR objected.
Margaret bit her lip, “I don’t know if I dare to ride.”
“Of course you do, it’s really fun and your dad is one of the best teachers around,” Donna said reassuringly.
“Did he teach you how to ride mommy?”
“Sure did,” Donna smiled “It’s been a couple of years since I’ve been on a horse but I’m sure that once I get up in that saddle it will all come back to me.”
“Of course it will,” Ray said. “You were a real cowgirl once…”
“Yeah you even beat me at that mechanical bull contest,” Pam said.
“You rode a mechanical bull mom?” Christopher looked at Pam.
“Yes don’t you remember?” Pam asked. “I even had one to practice in our back yard…”
The others laughed and Rebecca said, “I can’t picture you on a mechanical bull mom!”
Margaret turned to Donna, “Neither can I, are you sure you won mom?”
“She sure did,” Ray said proudly. “Haven’t you shown Margaret your trophy?”
“Oh Ray, I don’t know where I have it,” Donna shook her head.
“Aunt Sue Ellen did you also ride on the mechanical bull?” Rebecca asked.
John Ross laughed and Sue Ellen said, “No dear I didn’t. I rode the barrel run at the rodeo.”
“I remember that, you were riding real fast,” John Ross grinned.
“I’ve never been to a rodeo,” Rebecca piped in.
“Me neither,” Margaret agreed.
“Too bad we don’t have any rodeos here anymore, they sure were fun,” Christopher said.
“Hey that’s an idea, maybe we should host a charity rodeo here again,” Bobby suggested.
“That would be lovely,” Miss Ellie smiled. “However first we’ve got the oil baron’s ball to go to this fall, which reminds me, I’ve got a lunch meeting with Jennifer Nelson today, so can you drive me Clayton?”
“Sure,” Clayton agreed.
“Nelson, you said?” JR's eyes narrowed, “Any connection to Nelson Oil?”
“Yes it’s her husband’s company,” Bobby replied.
“Really?” JR said interested. “Maybe we should look into doing some business with them then…”
“That’s a good idea. They’re in the cartel aren’t they?” Bobby asked.
“I think so,” JR replied.
“Boys that’s enough business talk at the breakfast table,” Miss Ellie said scolding.
“Sorry mama, but you brought her up,” JR apologized.
“I wanna hear more about the rodeo we’re gonna arrange,” Rebecca smiled. “What do you do more than ride on the mechanic bull?”
The others laughed and Ray said, “Well you ride on real bulls!”
Margaret eyes widened, “Real bulls?” Margaret exclaimed. “But that’s dangerous!”
“Sure is and that’s the thrill of it,” Ray replied.
“You rode a bull daddy?” Margaret asked.
“Sure did,” Ray replied. “But rodeo is so much more, we also have…” Ray continued talking about the rodeo as the family kept eating their breakfast.
“A round of applause for little Margaret,” Donna said proudly before she started to clap her hands. Ray, Miss Ellie and Clayton politely applauded too, while the others looked bored.

The scene with Lucas: LOL! He is hilarious! That sounds like something I would have said back when I was a kid!
I loved the little trip down memory lane they all took at breakfast. I believe that Donna was the real star during that charity rodeo episode back in season 7 (dvd). So glad that Ray is going to spend some quality time with Margaret. I was worried that she was kind of getting homesick, but maybe Ray will show her how nice ranch life can be! Who knows? She might discover that she is like her father once she tries stuff like riding.

I spend entirely too much time analysing the characters in my mind for my own fanfic lol.

Sorry, not to be rude (at all) but what was the point? It felt like a comparison question. JR & Sue Ellen's parenting choices vs Pams.

@Miss Texas 1967, The topic was forgiveness!!!
My thoughts on forgiveness (in general terms):
If someone has hurt you enormously, you're locked up in an emotional prison. Basically, you've lost your power, because you've let that other person dictate your emotions and control you!
Choosing forgiveness will unlock the bonds of hostility and help set you free!
At the same time, don't forget!!! Don't let the same person walk all over you again. Learn from your experiences as you go through life!
In the end, you'll be a much happier person!!!
PS. I think that Bobby, Christopher and perhaps also John Ross share my life philosophy!
And I think that there will be more characters who will follow in their footsteps!

Excellent breakfast scene that had the amazing "Dallas feeling"!!!
10 out of 10 points! :10::10::10::10::10::10::10:
The scene had so much good stuff:
PS. When did Miss Ellie have time to buy a new and much bigger breakfast table and also dining room table (along with matching chairs)???
I wonder if there'll be enough room to seat guests popping by!!!
10 out of 10 points! :10::10::10::10::10::10::10:
The scene had so much good stuff:
- Margaret's "polished" behavior and conversation topics always makes me laugh (as did the comments from the bored crowd)! I guess that Miss Ellie longtime rule about "no business talk" doesn't apply to the children!
- YES, one riding lesson coming up! Finally, Ray can put some "ranch life" into his daughter's Washington persona! :hats:Mitch's comment about JR's horse was hilarios!
- The reference to the mechanical bull contest was prizeless! (Donna's trophy, Pam's back yard, Sue Ellen's barrel run at the rodeo, etc. :lolo: )
- The talk about riding real bulls was so funny!
- A charity rodeo at Southfork is coming up??? And also the annual Oil Baron's Ball???
I'm in heaven!

Thank you everyone for the feedback. I always enjoy reading your comments.
Presea, I'm glad you enjoyed the scene with Lucas. I could totally blurt out the truth at totally the wrong moment when I was Lucas age too. It was like I didn't understand why certain things weren't appropriate to say in certain circumstances before I was a little older. You'll find out later how Margaret's riding lesson will go.
Miss Texas 1967, I see what you mean about analysing the characters. I have a whole document of character profiles that also keep track of their histories and what happened when. It has 67 pages and that is excluding certain new minor characters.
Ms Southworth, I totally missed that the topic was forgiveness too. I thought you asked us to compare JR vs Pam's relationship with their kids, as you can probably see from my first answer about it.
I'm glad you enjoyed the breakfast scene and all the fun stuff so much.
My guess is that Miss Ellie's probably brought out some extra chairs from storage. After all they used to be a big family before too and I'm guessing they had extra chairs to bring out for when they had guests. Yes the Oil Baron's Ball and the Rodeo at Southfork will definitely happen. But don't get too excited just yet as the Rodeo is at the very end of the first season...
Okay so here's tonight's update:
At Diamond hotels at lunch hour, Jenna and Lucas were sitting at a table waiting for Charlie. Lucas sighed, “Why is Charlie always taking so long to get ready?”
“Well she’s a woman and it’s a part of our nature,” Jenna smiled.
Lucas shook his head and said, “Women!”
Jenna smiled before she took a look at her watch, “You know I think I’d better go get Charlie, otherwise we’ll miss our appointment for that house!”
“We’re going to look at another house today?”
“Yes.”
“I hope they’ll have a car carpet.”
Jenna laughed, “We’ll see. Lucas honey would you mind holding our table while mommy goes to get Charlie?”
“No mom it’s ok.”
“That’s my good boy,” Jenna smiled before she got up. Jenna left and Lucas started reading the menu.
Suddenly a waitress walked up to him and asked, “Hi can I take your order now?”
Lucas looked surprised, “Are you talking to me?”
“Yes, what do you want?”
“Today’s special please!”
“I’m sorry but we don’t serve that to just one person.”
“Oh but we’re three. I’m waiting for my mother and sister,” Lucas grinned.
“Well in that case, a big bowl of shellfish soup it is!”
“Great, and don’t forget my toy!” Lucas beamed.
The waitress left and about a minute later Jenna and Charlie walked over towards the table. They were involved in a conversation of their own. “So Randy said he’ll be here tomorrow?”
“Yeah, I can’t wait for him to get back from his business trip. So will you help me pick out something to wear for tomorrow?” Charlie smiled, as they sat down. “I wanna look hot when I meet him!”
“Well I think what you're wearing now is fine,” Jenna said, shrugging her shoulders. But then her facial expression changed when she saw the waitress coming towards them. Jenna stared in surprise when she put down 3 plates and a big bowl of shellfish soup in front of them. Then she put a gift on the table.
Charlie stared at her plate before she exclaimed, “Shellfish?” Charlie looked at Jenna questioning. “Mom you ordered shellfish?”
“No I didn’t.”
“Good because I hate that!”
“Well me too,” Jenna sighed, as she called after the waitress, “Excuse me, there’s been a mistake here. I haven’t ordered yet!”
The waitress turned towards them and said, “No but your kid did, enjoy your meal!” The waitress walked away.
Jenna turned to Lucas, “Lucas did you order this?”
“Yes it was the dish of the day mommy.”
“So?”
“Well if you ordered that and was under ten years of age you got a toy,” Lucas smiled.
“Oh no,” Jenna sighed and took the gift.
“Don’t tell me…” Charlie started, as Jenna pulled out a green plastic ford!
“LUCAS!!!!” Jenna and Charlie exclaimed in unison.
“What?” Lucas shrugged his shoulders.
“Oh this was just great,” Jenna said sarcastically. “Look Charlie you and I will order something else and Lucas you’ll eat that.”
Lucas took some soup out of the big bowl and poured it on his plate. Next he took up his spoon and tried a little. Lucas made a face and screamed, “YUCK!”
Everyone at the restaurant stared at them just in time to see Lucas throw down the spoon, which landed in the soup bowl. It made the soup splash up all over the table and on Jenna and Charlie!!!!
“Oh my God!” Jenna screamed.
“Dammit,” Charlie cursed, as they both got up. “Lucas you moron! Look at my clothes. I was gonna wear this when I met Randy. Now what the hell am I gonna wear?” Charlie asked angrily, as she looked down on the spots on her clothes.
“Charlie calm down,” Jenna said. “Did the soup burn you?”
“No,” Charlie shook her head. “But this is so typical.”
“I know. But on the bright side we’re not hurt and you’re not meeting Randy until tomorrow,” Jenna said. “You just take something else.”
“Yeah like what?” Charlie asked sarcastically.
“I don’t know we’ll look into it…” Jenna stopped mid-sentence as she saw a very angry looking restaurant chef come walking towards them, “as soon as we’ve dealt with this man!” Jenna sighed, since she could just sense that they would get into trouble because of Lucas misconduct…

I'm still holding my breath after reading today's update! Still in a bit of a shock! Perhaps I'd be able to accept some of Lucas' behavior in a family restaurant, but certainly not in a five star hotel! There's just no excuse for misbehaving in so many different ways! I guess that it must be poor parental guidance, and I'm disappointed in Lucas' ability to NOT act age-appropriately when called for. He should show some respect, especially to his mother, but also the hotel and its staff! Who is going to pay for all the food he ordered, cleaning all the mess up, drycleaning the clothes, etc.? I have a pretty good guess! Although a smile did show on my face as the soup went everywhere, my mortified look soon reapeared, I'm afraid!
Although Ray probably has his hands full right now, I do hope that he can spare some time to tend to Lucas! I'd like to see Ray make a real gentleman out of Lucas! As a last resort, Jenna could consider to take him to Turn-About Ranch in Utah!
To top things off, Jenna will be late regarding house hunting due to all the problems Lucas created!
PS. Even if the entire family squeezed together quite a bit (and if Miss Ellie had extre chairs in the attic), I just don't think that the Southfork dining room table or the outside breakfast table (after checking both of them out on Pete's photo thread today) could seat 14 people! Thus, either it's possible to make the current tables longer, or Miss Ellie must have had had new furniture delivered!

Great updates Karin. I feel sorry for Jenna and Charlie having to put up with Lucas's awful behavior in public. Ray and Jenna both need to sit down with Lucas and lecture him about how to act properly in public.

@Mrs Bobby James Ewing : Charlie needs a lesson too!Great updates Karin.
(Maybe not by Ray, but still!) Charlie referred to her brother as a "moron"! :mo: And she cursed! :mo:
Thank you for the feedback.
First off there's one thing you all need to understand about this story. When stuff like the soup incident happens, it really shouldn't be interpreted as that the kids are not raised right and it's not a reflection on their parents. It's merely stuff that's been kept from the original draft of the story and it's been written for laughs. So think of it as something you would see on a sit com. In other words, don't take it so seriously.
Just wanted to clear that up!
Ms Southworth, you know Lucas is only 8. So I think he should be excused for goofing up sometimes.
Besides we are dealing with a very confused little boy. He's just had his whole world turn upside down.
Then as for Charlie. All siblings argue occasionally. Therefore I wouldn't read too much into her calling Lucas a moron. Even though I suppose it's more common for siblings who are closer in age to argue I guess the road trip has taken it's toll on them all and that's why Lucas behavior is getting on her nerves.
We used to have a table that could be made longer for birthday parties when I was a child. So maybe the same thing could be done with the Southfork table...
Shan, I'm glad you've enjoyed the latest updates.
Sanda, you are right that it's a truly embarrassing situation for Jenna and Charlie.
I definitely wouldn't want to be in their shoes right now!
Okay so next update:
Miss Ellie stepped out of the elevator at the Oil Baron’s Club. She was greeted by the staff and Dora Mae escorted her to her table. When she got there she saw a middle aged woman with dark brown hair. “Mrs. Nelson?” Miss Ellie asked.
“Yes?” The woman looked up.
“Hi, I’m Mrs. Farlow.”
“Oh Mrs. Farlow, hello.”
“How nice to meet you,” Miss Ellie shook hands with the woman.
“Likewise, thank you for agreeing to meet me and its Jennifer please.”
“Well in that case you may call me Ellie,” Miss Ellie sat down.
“So the reason I asked you to lunch is that I need some help with the Oil baron’s ball.”
“Yes you mentioned that over the phone!”
“I guess I did. Anyway my husband Luke and I are in charge of arranging it this year but we are both quite new in town and I heard from your son that you’re a veteran when it comes to these kinds of parties so I was wondering if you could help me?”
“Sure I’d be glad to,” Miss Ellie smiled warmly.
“Great, so maybe you can start with telling me why we’re arranging it?”
“Well the Oil baron’s ball started back in 1952. It was originally a quite small event but with the years it grew into a big formal party. It is held as an opportunity to celebrate the oil men in the great state of Texas.”
“I see, so that includes what?”
“We usually have a dinner with great food and a dance. Then there are also a few awards, prices and scholarships to be handed out, like for example the Jock Ewing memorial scholarship,” Miss Ellie said wistfully. “It’s in memoriam of my first husband.”
“I see. Well that all sounds good. However we were thinking of maybe modernizing it a little this year. Jessica suggested a few dance competitions!”
“Jessica?”
“Oh my daughter,” Jennifer Nelson explained.
Cassie came up to them, “Are you ready to order?”
“Yes I’ll have a shrimp salad and a martini,” Jennifer Nelson ordered.
“Ma’am?”
“I’ll have roast beef and some white wine,” Miss Ellie ordered.
Cassie left and Jennifer said, “So maybe you could tell me some more about the traditions of the oil baron’s ball. I mean we don’t wanna change the whole ball of course.”
“No of course not, well we have the oil baron of the year and…” Miss Ellie went on telling Jennifer Nelson more about the event.
First off there's one thing you all need to understand about this story. When stuff like the soup incident happens, it really shouldn't be interpreted as that the kids are not raised right and it's not a reflection on their parents. It's merely stuff that's been kept from the original draft of the story and it's been written for laughs. So think of it as something you would see on a sit com. In other words, don't take it so seriously.
Just wanted to clear that up!
Ms Southworth, you know Lucas is only 8. So I think he should be excused for goofing up sometimes.

Another hilarious Lucas scene! Clearly, nothing is going to stop him from getting anything car related. Lol. I swear, it has gotten to the point where I am looking forward to his reactions to everyone at Southfork more than Jenna's! Charlie just annoys me more than anything else, but I will admit that it is amusing how you have continued with the theme of her Randy obsession from the show. I wonder what would happen if he actually dumped her? Lol.
The other scene just bored me (sorry), since I don't see any real purpose for this Jennifer Nelson character now that it has been established that there will be an Oil Baron's Ball.
I don't know if you are just writing these scenes now, or if you are still taking them from what you and your co-author wrote back in the 90s, but I think that the real story needs to move a bit faster, not just focus so much on Jenna and company travelling and/or at hotels (although I love the Lucas stuff) and your OC scenes. Sorry if all of that sounds too much like constructive criticism, but that was just the writer in me speaking. Your story is still wonderful overall.

Great update! :loveit: I was able to picture myself sitting on a bar stool in the Oil Baron's Club "overlooking" Miss Ellie's lunch date with Jennifer Nelson! :cooler: It was just like listening to the "real" Miss Ellie talking"! Good job, Karin & Jenny! I loved Miss Ellie's description of the history of the Oil Baron's Ball. 
Great idea to add some kind of a dance contest to the Oil Baron's Ball! :danc: I wonder if we're talking ballroom dancing, two-stepping, tango, waltz, rhumba, or something more modern??? (I'm guessing that belly dancing - however nicely done - is out of the question! ). Also, it'll be interesting who we'll get to see on the dance floor!
Please update soon!I want to see what's going on at Southfork! I'll be silently praying that Margaret's riding lesson will be in today's update! :hats:
PS. @Karin Schill, I'm sorry if my comments about Lucas' poor judgement/behavior is unappreciated.
Unfortunately, the things that I find funny on a drama series like "Dallas" isn't the kind of things that would be in a traditional sitcom! Maybe I'm focusing on Lucas' "bad" behavior, because I'm not that much into the Wade's family in the first place??? I don't know, but I'll try to restrain myself in the future, ... ... but I won't make any guarantees!

I can't wait to see your next update Karin , great idea !!!!!Thank you everyone for your feedback! I do appreciate all your comments.
Presea, maybe Charlie will grow on you eventually if you give her a chance. But I'll admit when we first wrote this story we wrote it like if she was still a teenager since we didn't know how to write her any other way. We have tried to bring her up to her proper age, which is 22 in the rewrite but occasionally she still acts like a teenager I'm afraid. Anyway you will see where Charlie and Randy's relationship will go in this story.
I know the story moves a bit slow right now. I promise it will pick up speed a little later. I think a problem why it's perceived as so slow moving is because there are so many updates/episode. If the entire episode was read at once it wouldn't seem as slow moving I'm sure. Then again the original show could also be slow moving at times, as it built up something. It was a part of what made it so great that it all seemed rather realistic even when they were thrust into extreme situations like car crashes, the fire, kidnappings etc.
Then as for the scenes, right now they are a mixture of original scenes and new scenes. The breakfast scene, Lucas stuff with the carpet and soup is original stuff whereas Miss Ellie's lunch is a new scene. Anyway I am glad that you really enjoy Lucas and his car obsession.
Shan, yeah you are right all the good drama seems to happen in the pool or at the Oil Baron's Ball!:lolo:
I just love that event. Especially how all the ladies are so glamourous and wears all the fancy dresses and of course there's always tension and drama with so many characters thrust into the same place...
Tommie, the oil baron's ball, rodeos, barbeques and wedding episodes were among my most favorites too! I just loved all of those events!
So well you can expect a whole episode dedicated to them. In fact the rodeo one is a double one.
Ms Southworth, I am glad that you could picture Miss Ellie's lunch with Jennifer Nelson.
And no there won't be any belly dancing at the oil baron's ball. I mean it's not a dance style that you can dance in couples really.
I get where you're coming from regarding the Wades. I just wanted to point out that a part of it is written like a sit com and is meant to be funny so you don't keep misinterpreting more scenes!
Also sorry but Margaret's riding lesson is tomorrow...
Silvie, I am glad you also love the oil baron's and the rodeos. I think most of us do!
Okay so here's tonight's update:
Back at Diamonds hotels, Jenna and Charlie were still splashed with shellfish, as they were standing with Lucas in the hotel owner’s office. He was a middle-aged man, with orange hair and he had a red tie to his green suit. “I see,” the owner said.
“Yeah, you know I just came to think of what a lovely office you have,” Jenna sucked up.
Lucas however was brutally honest as he started to say, “What this place stin...”
Charlie put her hand over Lucas mouth and smiled fake at the owner, “As she said, lovely office.”
“So how will you pay for the damages?” The owner asked.
“Um…this credit card,” Jenna handed over her and Rays’ joint card.
Then someone entered the room and said, “Dad?”
Charlie looked shocked as she would have recognized that voice anywhere. She turned around and stared before she said in a questioning tone of voice, “Randy?”
“Charlie?!” Randy stared back at her and looked embarrassed, “Oh my God!”
“But you shouldn’t be here until tomorrow and…” Charlie looked Randy up and down and frowned at his orange hair color. “What have you done?” Charlie demanded an answer. “This isn’t you!” Charlie said, referring to Randy’s appearance. He was dressed in a red T-shirt with the text ‘Cars and women are best’. The trousers had a check pattern of black and white, the socks were green and his converse shoes red. To top it off he was wearing red big 80’s glasses!
Jenna stared too and Lucas grinned amused, “Cool T-shirt!” Lucas pointed at the T-shirt.
“Thanks kid,” Randy replied before he walked up to Charlie and said, “What do you mean of course it’s me!” Randy gave Charlie a hug saying, “What, no kiss?!”
Charlie gave Randy a quick kiss before saying, “Sorry but…the clothes?”
Randy didn’t want to answer so he just tousled Lucas hair instead before he said, “Lucas likes my clothes…”
“Lucas is eight,” Charlie insisted, still looking shocked.
“Randy?” Jenna asked questioning.
“Oh hi Mrs. Krebbs,” Randy greeted her, “Nice to see you again.”
“You too,” Jenna smiled.
Charlie grabbed a hold of Randy and said, “Honey why have you changed your look?”
However Randy was saved from answering by the hotel owner who butted into the conversation, “Do you know my son?”
“Yeah dad they sure do,” Randy said. “This is my girlfriend Charlie, you remember her from high school?”
“Oh yes,” Randy’s dad smiled at Charlie. “Hello.”
Randy then turned to Charlie and said. “Do you remember my dad, Ronald Diamond?”
“Oh I’m so sorry Mr. Diamond, I didn’t recognize you,” Charlie said. “Hi!”
“And this is her mother Mrs. Krebbs and her brother Lucas,” Randy introduced Charlie’ s family to his dad.
“Oh I see, well then why don’t we forget about this little soup incident?” Ronald smiled and handed Jenna the credit card back. “The cost is on the hotel.”
“Oh that was very nice of you Mr. Diamond,” Jenna smiled, as she took the card. “After all Lucas is just a little mischievous. I’m sure you remember how Randy was at that age.”
“Well yes. But I remember him even better from the time he started going out with your little gal,” Ronald said.
Randy and Charlie exchanged a look and Randy said, “Dad!”
“Randy why don’t we have dinner with your girlfriend and her family tonight?” Ronald suggested.
“Another time dad Charlie and I haven’t seen each other in weeks,” Randy said. “We want to be alone.”
“Oh yeah,” Charlie said when Randy suddenly noticed her and Jenna’s clothes.
“What’s happened to you?” Randy pointed at her dress.
“Lucas!” Charlie sighed.
“Um…maybe you and Mrs. Krebbs need to change!” Randy suggested.
“Good idea Randy,” Jenna said.
“Yeah really,” Charlie agreed. “Will you come up and wait?”
“I’ve got a better idea,” Randy said. “Why don’t you follow me to my personal suite and change there?” Randy nibbled on Charlie’s ear.
“Well you talk like my Randy but you don’t look like him! So what’s happen?”
“Follow me up and I’ll tell you!”
“Okay. See you later mom,” Charlie said and she and Randy left the office with their arms around each other.
Jenna turned to Lucas and said, “Well we’d better get going too.” Then she turned to Ronald and said politely, “Nice to meet you.”
“Likewise, I’m sure we’ll see more of each other,” Ronald said.
Jenna smiled strained and said, “Of course, bye”, Jenna then hurried to push Lucas out of the office.

Description of Ronald Diamond: Orange hair, red tie, and a green suit??? Now, that's funny!
Same goes with Randy's orange hair, red t-shirt with print, pants with a check pattern in black and white, green socks, and red Converse shoes! :lolo:
Especially funny, if the Diamond family really is loaded! Maybe Jenna can give them free fashion advice and new clothes in return for the freebies given to her family?
It'll be interesting to hear Randy's explanation! Has he been hiding something from Charlie?
Yeeeee haaaaa! :hats: One riding lesson coming up today! I can't wait! :loveit:
PS. In case my interpretation of a scene doesn't align with what you as writers were trying to get across, it doesn't mean that I'm wrong and you're right! It just means that there is a difference of opinion! With all do respect, I think that I should be allowed to interpret any way I choose! There is no right or wrong answer! Can we agree on that? als:
