The powerhouses in the own countys with lots of staff and one matriarch/patriarch. Obviously it was written that way to show that JR now found someone of his own size. But I wonder why they had to introduce such an iconic ranch. A few episodes earlier a storyline about land (Takapa) dominated part of the previous season. I was expecting a conflict between the Southern Cross and Southfork along the way (cattle or sth. like that). Jessica was nuts, but I'll always cheer when she tells Clayton off because he sold the Southern Cross. Finally, someone tells him what a big mistake he made. I always wished they had kept it and Sue Ellen spent her last year on the show there with Dusty.</blockquote>
