[QUOTE="Kenny Coyote, post: 179002, member: 102"] What a great moment in Dallas history this was. The reading of Jock's will. "Oh, Jock, no..." was Miss Ellie's reaction during the reading of Jocks will right after Harv Smithfield had just read: "Ewing Oil can have only one man at the helm and that's got to be the man that wants it the most." Do you think she was afraid that Jock was going to give controlling interest to JR? At that particular moment that's what it sounded like. It shows her favoritism towards Bobby. Miss Ellie should have hoped Jock would give JR controlling interest. It would've been far better for the family than what Jock did do. Bobby had never shown he wanted it as much or even liked it as much as JR did. JR was the son who had started learning from Jock in the oil fields since he was a little boy. While Bobby was playing football and being a playboy, JR had been the one who was always there to do whatever was needed. Bobby had filled in for JR at Ewing Oil after JR had been shot and he gave the job back to JR when he decided he would rather do other things. Bobby started a construction company and then dropped that. He became a politician and then gave that up. Meanwhile JR had been the one son who had consistently wanted to run Ewing Oil, showed the necessary aptitude for it, and enjoyed doing it. Taking all of that into account, would anyone have had had any reasonable cause to complain if Jock had given JR controlling interest? [/QUOTE]
