[QUOTE="Lastkidpicked, post: 349635, member: 237"] And this comes back to hurt Bobby. Most notably in [I]The Venezuelan Connection. [/I] Bobby had a shipment of crude coming in from Venezuela. The ship sinks, along with Bobby's oil. Come to find out, the ship itself was insured, but Bobby's oil was not insured and Bobby pre-paid $18 million for it and is now out that money. [I]Side note: Miss Ellie asks Jock to help Bobby with this crisis, which will definitely affect the health of Ewing Oil. Jock refuses, saying that since Bobby insists on doing things himself, he can go through this oil spill by himself. Jock even states that if Bobby can't handle it, then the wrong Ewing boy is in charge at Ewing Oil.[/I] Bobby is smarter than J.R. gives him credit for, and figures out what happened. J.R. and Sally Bullock stole Bobby's oil. They then over insured the tanker, which was empty, and sank it. So J.R. collected on selling the oil he stole from Bobby and also collected insurance money for the tanker. J.R. made millions by stealing from Bobby (and stealing from Ewing Oil, as that is who really owned the crude). Once Bobby discovers this, what does he do? He tells J.R. "I covered your tracks for you so that the name Ewing Oil wouldn't get dragged through the mud." WHAT? Why not let J.R. be exposed, allow Jock to see what was going on, and then let the chips fall where they may. Instead, Bobby covers for J.R. and allows Jock to think that Bobby is the weaker son. Not smart, Bobby. [/QUOTE]
