Thank you everyone for the feedback.
Much like the same-named guy of the video game was prone to do, Mario really needs to fall into a large hole.

Oh yeah I used to play Super Mario Bros when I was younger too. Actually I still play it occasionally with my best friend's son. He just loves that game and I get all nostalgic about it since the Mario character was around already when I was a child.

Anyway I agree that Afton's Mario is annoying...
Thanks for the update from Afton's place!
Uhhh ... :hair:... Mario needs to take a hike ... Why is Afton putting up with him?: :thinks:
Because he's rich!

He might be a jerk but he's rich and you know how Afton's always been attracted to wealth...

I mean she went after JR even though he was married. So she thinks that Mario is her ticket to a better life and because she loves him she can't see his faults.
Anyway
update time and I think some of you will be pleased as it's the long awaited Bobby & Pam scene...
The same evening in Houston, at the Royal Oaks Country Club there were a bunch of rich people dressed in fancy clothes. The ladies were wearing cocktail dresses and the men were dressed in suits with ties. The guests were sipping on their drinks as they were mingling after dinner. Among them were Bobby and Pam, who were talking to some oil men that they had closed a deal with earlier this week, when suddenly a somewhat familiar voice yelled, “Bobby Ewing!”
Bobby turned around and came face to face with Rodney Ridges, an old college friend who he hadn’t seen in years, he smiled happily, “Rodney Ridges, I don’t believe it!”
“I know it must have been like six years or something since I last bumped into you,” Rodney smiled.
“Yeah, I think that’s about right, so how have you been?”
“Oh fine!” Rodney smiled. “Oh and this must be Kay. Nice to meet you again,” Rodney accidentally mistook Pam for Bobby’s old girl-friend Kay Lloyd.
Pam who was not amused crossed her arms and asked, “Who’s Kay?”
“Oh just a woman I was dating some years ago.”
“She was Bobby’s mistress,” Rodney twinkled his eye at Bobby.
“Bobby?!” Pam said. “You’d better explain this fast!”
“There’s nothing to explain. Kay’s just an old girlfriend who I was dating
after you left me. She lived in Washington and she helped me get the Ewing Oil name back,” Bobby explained.
“So you must have dated her quite soon after I left then?” Pam asked annoyed.
“Well let me just remind you that
you were the one who walked out on me,” Bobby reminded Pam.
Rodney decided to end their bickering, “So Bobby, I don’t believe I’ve met the lovely lady you’re with tonight?”
“Oh really but this is Pam.”
“Pamela Barnes Ewing to be exact,” Pam extended her hand.
“Rodney Ridges, I went to college with Bobby,” Rodney shook Pam’s hand before he added. “You sure can pick them Ewing this one’s a real beauty. So is it your third or fourth wife?”
“Actually it’s my first,” Bobby smiled.
“Really?” Rodney looked surprised. “Well I’ll be damned I could have sworn you were married to Jenna Wade first.”
“Actually Bobby was
never married to Jenna Wade,” Pam informed Rodney in a chilly tone of voice.
“I’m sorry Bobby for butting in but I am confused. I could have sworn I saw a wedding picture of you and a blonde a few years ago.”
“Oh you mean April,” Bobby sighed. “Well she was my second wife.”
“So you divorced her and got back together with the first one?”
“Not exactly, I lost April in Paris.”
“Oh I’m sorry,” Rodney shifted uncomfortably as he realized that he'd stepped in it, “I seem to remember something about that now.”
“Anyway Pam’s
the only woman I’ve married twice and who’ll knows maybe we’ll get married again someday if I’ll work up enough courage to ask her,” Bobby winked at his old friend.
“I see good luck with that, anyway see that blonde over there, that’s my wife and I’d better get going if you know what I mean,” Rodney excused himself.
“I know what you mean, it was nice meeting you again,” Bobby smiled.
“You too, have a nice evening,” Rodney walked away.
Pam turned to Bobby and said, “So why don’t you ask me?”
“Ask you what?”
“If I’ll marry you again,” Pam said seriously.
“Here?” Bobby looked questioningly.
“Sure we’ve wasted enough time as it is,” Pam replied.
Bobby looked around at the crowd. Before he looked into Pam’s hopeful eyes and suddenly it didn’t matter that they were at a party, since when he looked at her, it was like they were the only two people in the room. Pam smiled when she saw the love shine out of Bobby’s eyes and he said, “Okay so Pamela Barnes Ewing will you do me the honor of becoming my wife again?”
“Let me think about it,” Pam said teasingly.
“Oh that’s a fine answer I thought you told me to ask you,” Bobby replied jokingly.
Pam laughed, “I know and of course the answer is yes Bobby. I’d love to marry you again!”
“Great that means we’re engaged!” Bobby smiled back before he took Pam into his arms. They sealed the promise with a passionate kiss.
Then a waitress suddenly walked up to them and said, “I’m sorry to break up the party but there’s an urgent phone call for you Mr. Ewing.”
“Can’t it wait?” Bobby asked.
“No it’s your brother JR and he insists that he’ll speak with you right away,” the waitress handed Bobby the cordless phone.
“This is Bobby.”
“Bob finally, I thought I’d never get hold of you. Where have you been all day?”
“Out,” Bobby replied.
“Then why didn’t you bring your mobile phone with you?” JR complained. “I’ve been trying to reach you all day.”
His accusing tone of voice indicated to Bobby that JR was hurting and that made him worried since something was obviously wrong at home, “What’s the matter, is it Mama?”
“No mama’s fine. It’s that idiot Barnes. Do you know what Pam’s brother has done to us this time?” JR started to yell. “He’s embarrassed us on TV!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Cliff Barnes, he has teamed up with that awful Don Lockwood and they’ve been promoting Sue Ellen’s movie all over the morning news by dragging our name in the mud.”
“Ouch, but I thought Sue Ellen was going to have that movie stopped?”
“Well she tried, but she failed, it’s out in the states now!” JR sighed. “You’ve gotta help me Bob. We must fight this now. It’s our entire career that’s on the line here. If we don’t do something to restore our reputation we’ll never do business ever again in Texas!”
“That bad, huh?”
“Yeah not to mention what this does to Mama. She’s so upset from all this that I’m really worried about her. She wants you and that Barnes woman back at Southfork and that’s quick!”
“All right we’ll be there as fast as possible,” Bobby sighed.
“Good, I’ve booked you on the ten o’clock flight,” JR informed Bobby.
Bobby frowned in dismay, “You want us to leave tonight?”
“Yeah and you’d better hurry as the flight leaves in two hours.”
“But what about our luggage?”
“Oh don’t worry I’ve already had the hotel pack up your things and sent it out to the airport.”
“I see, ok see you soon then,” Bobby sighed, before he hung up and handed the phone to a member of the staff that just walked by with a tray with refreshments.
Seeing the troubled expression on Bobby's face Pam asked in a concerned tone of voice, “Bobby what’s the matter?”
“Come on Pamela we must leave for Dallas tonight,” Bobby wrapped his arm around her back and started pushing her towards the exit.
“No I don’t wanna leave tonight we’ve…”
“I know but we must…”
“But why?”
“It’s your brother.”
“Cliff?” Pam’s face paled, “What’s happened? Is he hurt?”
“No, I’ll explain it to you on the way to the airport.”
“But I thought we were going to celebrate tonight.”
“So did I but I guess we’ll have to do it later,” Bobby sighed. “The family wants us home tonight so we must be on the first plane back to Dallas,” Bobby explained and Pam nodded before they hurried to leave the party with their arms wrapped around each other.
