Noticing that Pam’s car was gone Bobby got a bad feeling about this whole thing. Damn seems like they have left for the day, he sighed. But JR didn’t seem to notice that anything was wrong as he was too busy to suck up to the news team as they stepped out of the car.“Okay here we are,” JR grinned. “Here you can see nothing but Ewing land as far as your eyes can reach.”“How big is the ranch?” The female reporter asked, as the camera man slugged his camera over his shoulder and pressed the recording button.“Oh just about 140 000 acres,” JR grinned. “The ranch used to belong to our grandpa Southworth when we were kids. Then he passed it onto our Mama. You see Mama loves the land so it’s still a working ranch with cattle even though we really don’t need the money it brings,” JR explained and the reporter nodded politely even though they were not really interested in that angle for their story.“Well it sure is peaceful out here, so where is everyone?” The reporter asked. “I thought you said we’d get to talk to Sue Ellen…”“Oh don’t worry I’m sure she’s around here somewhere,” JR chuckled as he, Bobby and the reporters started to head for the pool area. Once they approached the pool it became obvious that there were children living on the property as in the pool laid the two floating shuttles and Rebecca’s doll, still with Bobby’s tie around its neck.“Oh no what’s the tie that Christopher gave me doing in the pool?” Bobby sighed.“I don’t know but I bet you that it was Rebecca’s doing,” JR replied.“Looks like it and I bet it is Christopher and John Ross who have been using the floating shuttles,” Bobby said before he turned to the camera crew. “You’ll have to excuse the mess. But as you can see our kids have been playing around here earlier today.”“We can see that, only question is where are they now?” The reporter replied.“Well that’s a good question and…” JR started to squirm. Dammit, Bobby was right we should have called first, as bringing the reporters to an empty house will do nothing for our reputation, JR sighed before he looked around the house, as he tried to find a way out of this situation. It was then he spotted the note standing on the table on the other side of the pool. “I am sure that note over there will explain everything…” JR said as he and Bobby headed for the table in a hurry.Unfortunately JR was so focused on the note that he forgot to look where he was going and all of a sudden he stumbled over Rebecca’s roller blades. Desperately trying to catch his balance he grabbed hold of Bobby, who was also caught off balance by JR and the reporters finally got their scoop as they watched the Ewing brothers fall helplessly into the pool with a splash.The female reporter started laughing hysterically at the comical sight of the wet Ewing brothers before she turned to her camera man, “Oh My God that’s priceless, did you get that?”“Oh yeah, every single second of it,” the camera man smiled, as he tried to stifle the laughter in his throat.But Bobby and JR were not amused when they surfaced. “JR! What the hell just happened?” Bobby screamed.“Rebecca that’s what happened,” JR replied grumpily.“Rebecca?” Bobby wondered. “How can you blame you dragging me with you into the pool on my daughter?”“Because I stumbled over her damn roller blades, that’s why. Dammit Bobby you need to teach that kid to pick up her things after her. Since her mother sure as hell hasn’t taught her any common sense,” JR yelled as they stepped out of the pool, dripping wet.“I know but this is not the time or place to get into that since we still have company you know?” Bobby gestured towards the reporters.Once JR became aware of that he was still being filmed he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Shit! I should never have invited those vultures over. Now let’s try to get rid of them before I explode! JR reflected, before he faked his best smile at the reporters. “Well seems like Sue Ellen have left for the day but I guess we still gave you a run for your money. Now you’ve had your fun. So can you please turn off the camera?”“Um…I’d rather not. Would you mind if I film some location shots?” The camera man asked.“Sure whatever you want, as long as you turn that thing away from me, as this interview is over,” JR insisted. “You heard my brother. You’ve got your story, now leave us alone and you can help yourself off our property when you are done with your location shots,” Bobby said, as he and JR walked into the house to change clothes.</blockquote>
