- Olivia Cunningham: I think Daddy wants to feel included in our lives. By buying us stuff, it's the only way he can.
- Abby Cunningham: [proudly] Can you believe it? Nine years old.
- Valene Ewing: Out of the mouths of babes.
- Olivia Cunningham: It's obvious. He's very insecure. And we gotta show him that we still love him, even though he doesn't live with us.
- J.R. Ewing: [seated at low tables] I love these Japanese restaurants. They give me the chance to start a meal under the table instead of ending up that way.
- [chuckles]
- Abby Cunningham: [in the back of the limo] What are you going to do now?
- J.R. Ewing: Well, I think you and I have some very important areas to explore.
- Abby Cunningham: [to Gary] You know Sid. He's such a Sunday school teacher when it comes to business.
- Abby Cunningham: Believe me, Sid, J.R. and I talk about a lot of things, but your engine wasn't one of them. I wish it was that easy.
- Abby Cunningham: Gary... don't be stupid! This engine is going to be worth millions!
- Gary Ewing: And it belongs to Sid. We can't just walk in there and take those plans.
- Abby Cunningham: Yes, we can! And believe me, Sid will be grateful to us for caring enough about it to do something.
- Gary Ewing: I - I doubt it. I already talked to him about it.
- Abby Cunningham: Oh, what good does talking do? We need to take some action.
- J.R. Ewing: What's this?
- Abby Cunningham: A contract.
- J.R. Ewing: A Texas man's word is worth a whole lot more than a piece of paper.
- Abby Cunningham: We're in California.
- J.R. Ewing: [chuckles] Okay.
- [sits down to sign]
- Abby Cunningham: [scoffs] Aren't you going to read it?
- J.R. Ewing: No. You won't cheat old J.R.
- [signs]
- J.R. Ewing: There you are.
- [hands it over]
- J.R. Ewing: Now that's finished... partner.
- Abby Cunningham: I see.
- J.R. Ewing: [sighs] Now that we've consummated that... I'm getting a little restless.
- Abby Cunningham: Well, maybe you ought to learn how to relax.
- J.R. Ewing: [with a smile] Oh, Abby, I know how to relax.
- [grabs her, pulls her down onto the couch]
- J.R. Ewing: [In bed with Abby] If we could patent what we just invented, we could really be in business.
- [last lines]
- Karen Fairgate: Why, J.R.? Why here in Knots Landing? Where? What's going on?
- J.R. Ewing: Oh, a little business with pleasure. I didn't have much luck with your husband, but I seem to be making out much better with your sister-in-law.
- Karen Fairgate: Hmm.
- J.R. Ewing: I didn't have much luck with your husband, but I seem to be making out much better with your sister-in-law.
- Karen Fairgate: I can imagine.
- J.R. Ewing: I bet you can.
- [Karen goes off, slamming the door behind her]
- J.R. Ewing: I'll just bet you can.
- [typical trademark wicked grin]
