[QUOTE="Jock Og, post: 31029, member: 17"] Most of my favourite DALLAS ‘speaks’ are from Jock. Probably because he was my favourite character and although JR clearly became the focal person globally IMHO the show had a massive void when the first patriarch died. His oil painting (portrait) then took over and if only the painting could have uttered a few words, without JR’s occasional comment of “like my daddy used to say….” What memories! Here are my top ten: 1. Jock to Bobby: “Nobody gives you power. Real power is something you take!” 2. Jock to his family: “I am Takapa!” 3. Digger to Jock: $10,000.” Jock to Digger, after another infamous spat between the two former oil drilling partners, over Pamela: “There’s $100.” 4. A teary eyed JR, just as his brother flat lines: “Don’t do this to me Bobby. Don’t leave me!” 5. Ellie to Jock post mastectomy: “Jock I’m deformed!” 6. Ellie to Wes (Jock’s impersonator): “These are my husband’s things. His knife, buckle and letters. What are you doing with them? 7. JR to Jock’s oil painting (portrait): “I’m back daddy and nobody is going to take Ewing Oil away from me, my son or his son.” 8. Ellie (Donna Reed) insisting to Bobby and JR, about moving her first husband’s portrait: “Taking this painting down is the right thing to do. I’m sure even Jock would agree!” 9. Angelica to JR, before the bomb explodes: “It’s too late JR. It’s too late!” 10. Jock: “What in the hell as JR done now?” [B]Jock is talking to Ray, at the stables. They initially talk about Lucy's compatibility or lack of it, with Mitch. Little does Jock know that his recently discovered love child had a roll in the hay at the start of the series, with his spoiled granddaughter? They finish talking about their concerns about Lucy marrying Mitch but move onto something which becomes much more controversial in later episodes, (a scene from season 3, DVD-4, 1980 – ‘81): Jock: - "Are you coming down to the bank today?" Ray: - "No I can't make it Jock. I have all that new stock coming in." Jock: - "Hey you know I feel 10 years younger, since I decided to make that deal. Man I feel like I am part of things, again." Ray: - "Did you discuss that with Bobby yet?" Jock: - "What the hell for?" Ray: - "Bobby is running Ewing Oil. You are drawing money, out of the company. I just think he ought to know about it." Jock: - "Let me tell you something Ray. Ewing Oil is mine! I started it. I worked it. I made it what it is today. And if Bobby or anybody else don't like the way I do things they know what they can do." Ray: - "Hey Jock I didn't mean anything." Jock: - "Oh I know that its not you. It’s just that things don't seem like they used to, that’s all." Ray: - "Bobby" Jock: - "Yeah!" Ray: - "Bobby is a good man! He'll do right by Ewing Oil." Jock: - "He has got a lot to learn Ray. Trouble is he don't know it yet!"[/B] [/QUOTE]
