You let him alone, Bobby.
The rest of you could take lessons from him.
I bet they could.
I hope we feel like you do when we've been married as long.
- You got time for breakfast?
We have to be at the club by 10.
Morning, Miss Ellie, Jock.
No, this tomato juice is just fine, thank you.
- Jock still having breakfast?
- Yeah, he, Mama and Sue Ellen.
- Well, I won't bother him then.
- Is there something I can help you with?
I was gonna talk to him about some cattle.
I thought I might stock my section.
- Yeah, things are looking up.
Well, there's this lady.
I just sort of met her.
Nothing serious or anything yet.
Well, Ray, that's great.
- Well, like I said, I just met her myself.
Monday night, I'm gonna see her at the Longhorn.
Why don't you come on by around 9?
Let you buy us a drink.
They just elected me justice of the peace about a week before and here they come pulling Digger Barnes and Jock up in front of me.
It seems they just hit one.
Digger come into town to drink the bar dry, buying for everybody.
In come old Jock, grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and hauled him out.
Well, that didn't set too good with the boys he was buying the drinks for so there ensued one of the finest brawls ever to take place west of the Mississippi.
Gave them both a week in the pokey.
- Remember that, Jock?
- Yeah, I sure do, Sam.
Barnes and I were a heck of a pair back in those days.
Now we've got that boy of his all over our back.
Donna, I remember you in my junior year and then you disappeared.
Well, that was about the time that my parents were killed in an accident and I just dropped out of school and went to work.
Did you ever think about going back and finishing?
Oh, I did for a while, then I dropped out again met Sam, which was probably the nicest thing that ever happened to me.
He's a heck of a man.
Yeah, he is, in a lot of ways.
I was wondering if you gave any thought to those conversations we had?
Now, J.R., we didn't invite Sam here to talk about business.
Well, maybe you didn't, Ellie but maybe it's as good a time now as ever to talk about it.
You know, a while back, I'd have said yes or no right now.
I found out she's got a better point of view than I have on what's going on nowadays.
Well, I respect that, sir.
I admire your ability to consider all points of view.
It occurred to me that she may not be as well-versed as you in the finer aspects of the oil business.
Well, maybe not, but she does know ecology, resources.
- You know you're your own man.
Be that as it may, it helps a man to have somebody he can trust to discuss things with, get the other point of view.
One of the reasons why I treasure you, my dear.
I take it you don't have an answer for us yet.
Well, let's just say, I'm still sitting on the fence waiting for the wind to blow me one way or the other.
Now that's absolutely the last word of business I want to
