Or I guess you did say US premiere so that was more recent, still though, Don disrespected her wishes and pleas for far too long before she did anything about it.I did like the conversation between Don and Sue Ellen though, he showed his true intentions there, money and fame is more important to him than their marriage and her feelings. I also thought Sue Ellen was hilariously shallow thinking she'd go to New York with Don for a second honeymoon because even if she wasn't sure about their marriage, at least she could work out some of her sexual frustrations and not feel bad because she did it with her husband rather than her ex-husband. I liked the conversation between JR and Sue Ellen the next morning too, their familiarity with each other benefited them in a situation like that. JR not pushing her to move on with him so quickly was a positive thing on his part too. Taking advantage of her when she was vulnerable like that would have only ended up hurting the situation. I think Don had a point about the Ewings, however the conversation at breakfast and everything recently proves too that their relationship with Sue Ellen isn't so black and white, they are there for her if she needs them, even if they haven't always been.I don't know if we need another character in the Wade storyline right now. Unless aunt Martha is connected somewhere else too? I really did like Lucas asking to speak Italian though, this whole trip back to the US must be such a culture shock for him and Jenna and Charlie aren't really helping things, so it's nice to see someone actually listen to him and fulfil his request.How did Pam not find it weird that a letter arrived asking for her to go for a checkup at a Dallas hospital? She and Bobby have hardly been in Dallas long enough to even begin the process of getting her medical records transferred back to Dallas for primary care rather than California.Jenna is so negligent not checking who Lucas was meeting next door. This was the 90s, stranger danger was definitely a publicised concept. It seems like this Kurt guy is bad news too, shaking my head at Jenna right now.I can't imagine Cliff driving a Hummer, however, he was always a bit of a try hard when he had money so maybe he would lolI like that JR now wants Rebecca to be Bobby's daughter, not because he likes Pam much more but because he actually likes Rebecca. Nice twist.Cliff reacted to the engagement news in quite a human way imo. Thank goodness someone actually asked about how Christopher was taking the news too, it always seems like Bobby and Pam forget that he went through a lot with her leaving too.Good, JR might end up getting out of Marilee's bad deal before it turns completely sour. On the other hand, he might not...The conversation between Pam and Sue Ellen was interesting. In a way, Pam is right about JR, they really can't get together right now and expect it to be any different to their previous reconciliations, they haven't put enough work into moving past the problems that pop up between them. On the other hand, I don't know if she was right to encourage Sue Ellen to get back together with Don. To talk to Don is probably a good idea, but they did kind of already do that and it got them nowhere. To throw away a marriage too is a pretty serious thing, you don't marry someone promising the world to them only to part at the first sign of trouble. I'm really not sure there's a way back for Sue Ellen and Don anymore though, he's already shown that he would choose money and fame over her. What I didn't like regarding what Pam was saying was all of that stuff about April, like she always seems to forget that she left Dallas, she left Bobby in pieces, naturally everything didn't just go back to the way it was, not with Jenna and not with Christopher.The stuff about Cally was interesting, Sue Ellen's description was funny, she did look young and they didn't skirt around that fact on the show. I thought it was interesting for Sue Ellen to mention how she felt when JR married Cally though, you could see it on the show, but to hear her say it was nice. I liked the way Sue Ellen and Cally interacted on the show, it wasn't bitchy, it was more sisterly.Afton should really listen to her daughter's feelings about Mario, they're only going to grow and they aren't lies.Why did Bobby even go shopping with Pam if he was going to complain? As for Pam, I always find her pouting over Bobby's exes to be silly, she left him and didn't even try to let him know she was still pining for him. What was he supposed to do? Not move on at all? Ugh.I like the idea of Pam going back to work, it might give her something to do and think about other than Bobby lolDo people still care about Jenna Wade? She's not really relevant in Dallas society anymore is she? I'm not sure she'd sell as many newspapers now as she did when she was 20 years old and running off to start a new life in Italy.Haha I wouldn't be so sure JR would be keen to go and visit Patricia if it was sold just like that. As a trip away with Sue Ellen though, John Ross has a point.</blockquote>
