Scenes That Should Have Been

[Ray_Krebbs]

A post I made yesterday got me into thinking of this. What scenes do you wish happened. Perhaps something big could have led to Miss Ellie leaving for good. Perhaps a big brawl involving the men leads to the dining room table getting flipped over and broken in half. The dining room set could have been a gift to Miss Ellie from Jock. This could have been the last straw for Miss Ellie. She moves away to another part of the U.S. where relatives live, allowing the boys to fend for themselves.

That is a big Fight Ray_Krebbs,

and Miss Ellie wouldn't of seen that coming.

Hmm, I wonder what that fight was about

maybe Digger won the Ranch

 

[Ray_Krebbs]

That is an idea. Maybe they could have used how Melissa Agretti won Falcon Crest. Perhaps Cliff uncovers a document and letter from Aaron to Digger. He could have lost Southfork to the Barnes in some kind of a bet. Cliff takes this to court and wins the ranch. He throws everyone out except Christopher, who leaves after telling Cliff his hatred for the Ewings killed his soul and conscience.

That's just like how Weststar,

threw JR out of his office,

and said, you touch my Daddy and your dead. :mo:



edit,

but anyhow, I will think of something to do with your idea.

A good well written scene around Season 11 or 12 that revealed Pam had died and her original exit had been linked to Katherine. Once Victoria made it clear that she'd never be returning this should've been made a priority no horrible Margaret Michaels scene with Cliff.

Of course I'd have much rather the very last ep been The Fall of the House of Ewing only written differently with Pam being pregnant, Donna and Ray reconciling and Sue Ellen leaving JR for good as a strong independent woman.

If only.

For me I would have loved Bobby giving Dusty a beat down, having Clayton trying to jump in and Clayton and Bobby having an epic knock down drag out fight that ended in Clayton getting his ass stomped.

I like that a lot. Dusty should have been featured with his stepmother and brothers after his father married into them. Did Dusty and Bobby ever have scenes alone?

When Christopher found out he was adopted, I really wish Bobby and Pam had told him that his mother was Kristin. It's an issue I had hoped the Dallas TNT revival would address, too. It would have been a nice nod to the series' history and would have added to Christopher's feud with John Ross; not only would they have had the rivalry from their fathers, but also their mothers.

We never got to see a real intense scene in court dealing with JR divorcing Sue Ellen. I wanted to see JR pull out all the stops, use her history as an alcoholic, time in sanitariums, drinking heavily while pregnant, and everything else he could and then win sole custody of John Ross.

We should've had a scene in season ten where Wes admitted to really being Jock to Miss Ellie, with her saying that although she loved him very much she had moved on and her future was with Clayton Farlow.

I would've loved to have seen a scene like that. The show left Wes's identity deliberately ambiguous.

But of course all the evidence pointed to him really being Jock Ewing.
