To be honest I don't think she loved him much either. To learn that Valene (her mother) was manipulated into leaving Texas and vowed to never return, is a bitter pill to swallow. Plus, to having her father driven away from his place of birth and whilst being a chronic alcoholic at the same time, by her so called loving uncle, was many reasons she could never look up to the power hungry business man that JR was. Seventeen years would go by, until Lucy finally got to see her mother and father again one more time, before briefly being driven away again. Valene and Gary would reunite once again a year later and of course start in their own spin off Knots Landing. However, what if Knots Landing being the spin off to Dallas, had created a joint plot with it's predecessor, which involved a paternity involving Gary and JR and it revealing JR being the actual father to Lucy? Although this was never implied, but it may have made people wander, why JR was so against Lucy marrying Alan Beam and acting like the father , Gary never was. Why was it so important for JR, to kidnap Lucy away from Val? How come Jock or Ellie never questioned JR's motive for this? OK, Gary was a drunk, but not a psycho and both he and Valene could have had help bringing Lucy up. The backstory could be one night, 17 years prior to 1978, Gary got drunk and stormed out on Val and she got with JR and they had a one night stand, resulting in Lucy. But, what if for unseen circumstances off screen Dallas, but On-screen KL, Val has an accident, which results in her visually remembering her one night stand with JR. It later creates one of the biggest plots Dallas and the revelation of the paternity sends shockwaves around the Ewing family fold and one of the biggest scandals in Texas. Ellie is broken and Val could claim JR raped her. This revelation could have also coincided with the who shot JR storyline. It could have been Lucy who had shot JR instead of Kristin. On the other hand, Lucy hardly knew Gary at all and only had a Vision of him as the father she always wanted for 17 years. Lucy has known JR all her life, but had only acted as her uncle, so he didn't bring shame to home to Ellie and Jock. Although Lucy would reconcile with her mother, could she love JR as her father and been Gary's niece instead? Would this have made Lucy more pivotal to the show, which would have made her stay beyond the 1984-85 season, before her return in 1988-1990? Could you have imagined JR's reaction knowing that the photographer Roger raped his own daughter? I dared not to. How about JR finding out Ray slept with his niece in '78?' Yikes! Would there have been a rivalry between Lucy and John Ross later in life. Or a love hate relationship like Bobby and JR? Or would there have been friction between herself and James Beaumont? How would her relationship with Pam go, considering JR hated her guts? Cally and Lucy being good friends in the later seasons was nice. Would it had worked if that way, if Cally was Lucy's stepmother? Was this a missed opportunity to give Lucy a bigger role to play? [/QUOTE]
