I think pretty much everything following Sue Ellen manipulating the Mandy/Valentine Girl situation was an opportunity for JR to stop hiding his wicked plans from Sue Ellen and start pulling her into them with him. She always found out about things eventually and then got hurt, it would have been better if he'd explained to her what his goal was and how he planned to get there and they'd teamed up to scheme together. That would have been character development. Sue Ellen proved to him when she showed him the video tape of her on the talkshow that she'd been paying attention to his tactics and could play a sly game like he did.JR going for Mandy sort of made sense in a JR likes women angle, but JR leaving Sue Ellen and actually marrying Mandy would have meant he'd lose a hell of a lot and likely gain very little. Bringing her to Southfork to live as his wife wouldn't have really been what either of them wanted and I think it would have ended had it even gotten that far.</blockquote>
