- Bobby Ewing: Pam, have you seen Cliff today?
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: [shakes her head] No, I just stopped by his office, but... his secretary hasn't seen him all day... You don't think that Cliff had anything to do with this?
- Bobby Ewing: [nods] Yes, I think that's a pretty safe bet.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: It could have been anybody, just anybody! Who kidnapped you? Cliff couldn't do something like this!
- Bobby Ewing: Pamela, every time that we've said that in the past, we've been wrong! And frankly, right now, I think Cliff is capable of doing anything.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Not kidnapping!
- Bobby Ewing: Honey, he as much as told me yesterday he was planning to do just that!
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Stop reading things in his words, he didn't...
- Bobby Ewing: [puts his hands on her shoulders] Don't take his side in this. Not this time!
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: I'm not taking his side! Why don't you be reasonable?
- [he rushes off, she grabs his arm, pulls him back]
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Bobby! Where are you going?
- Bobby Ewing: To find your brother!
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Please don't do that!
- Bobby Ewing: Pamela, how many times does it take for you to understand just how much your brother hates my family!
- [rushes off]
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: [pay phone] Hello, Agnes? It's Pamela Ewing. Has Cliff checked in yet? Well, if he does, would you ask him to call me before he talks to anybody? It's real important. Thank you.
- Bobby Ewing: [muttering to himself as he drives off from Cliff's office] Okay, Cliff, you're not in. Where the hell are you?
- Cliff Barnes: [his sister's waiting for him in his apartment] How'd you get in?
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: I bribed the manager.
- Cliff Barnes: Becoming more a Ewing every day, my dear.
- J.R. Ewing: [on phone in office] Now if the call was genuine, Dad would be on his way to the bank instead of City Hall.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: [on other line at Southfork] J.R., not everyone is motivated by greed.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: [defending Cliff Barnes] He didn't know anything about it.
- Bobby Ewing: You'd swear he could walk on water if he told you!
- Jeb Ames: [Ames has fixed himself a little old drink while J.R. was on the phone] More bad news, I hope?
