I liked all these details like the lie detectors, X-rays and knowledge he had about the Ewings. But the most satisfying part was after the B-B-Q when JR was bragging in the living room with a constant "I told you so." This storyline did not doubt the credibility of other characters. In the scenario that some villains are playing mindgames with JR, I think the character of MissEllie should be protected by all means. I just can't see Bobby and SueEllen questioning at breakfast table if MissEllie made Jock raise JR as his own even if there was 1% uncertainty. I consider this character as a unique selling point. Probably the only part of that storyline in question I'd regard as intriguing TV is how JR would take revenge on the ones who wronged him.</blockquote>
