Larry Hagman: J.R. Ewing

Quotes 

• Pamela Barnes Ewing : [storms into J.R.'s office]  Filthy snake!

  J.R. Ewing : I take it this is not a social visit.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : Why? Just tell me why! I was out of your life, out of your family life, off your precious Southfork! Why would you pull such a ghoulish trick on me? Do you really need to hurt me that much?

  J.R. Ewing : What are you talking about? You're babbling like a lunatic!

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : You know what I'm talking about! The trip to San Serrano, the trip to Jamaica! The trip you manipulated me into taking so that I'd look for Mark Graison!

  J.R. Ewing : What?

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : You know how much he means to me. What kind of sick pleasure did you get out of sending me island-hopping around the Caribbean with Gerald Kane?

  J.R. Ewing : Who? Who are you talking about?

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : [bangs her little fist on the table]  You know who, dammit! The pilot you hired to lead me on that wild-goose chase!

  J.R. Ewing : Pam, slow down. Some nut's been telling you stories about me, and you believe it.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : He's not a nut, and I believe him!

  J.R. Ewing : I never liked you a hell of a lot, you know that, Pam. But I never thought you were stupid till now.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : Stupid?

  [seethes] 

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : Maybe. Maybe because in the past when I've threatened you, I hadn't followed through. But this time it's different, J.R. Because this thing with Mark disgusts me more than anything you've ever done before.

  J.R. Ewing : [sighs, shakes his head]  Pam, there's been a misunderstanding.

  Pamela Barnes Ewing : [yells]  Shut up! Just sit there and listen! Cliff and your cousin Jamie... wanna split up Ewing Oil. And they asked me to join in their fight, but I said I wouldn't because of Bobby. Well, that won't stop me anymore. You have no heart. You have no feelings. You can't be hurt like other people. But you have one soft spot. One weakness! And that's Ewing Oil! The only thing you've ever really loved! Well, I'm gonna join Cliff and I'm gonna *back* him up all the way. And Cliff and Jamie and I are gonna take your company away from you! And then I'm gonna watch you hurt.

  [turns, leaves]
