Larry Hagman: J.R. Ewing

Quotes 

  • J.R. Ewing : I'll tell you one thing. I sure am glad Jeremy Wendell got that award instead of that idiot he let sit at his table.

    Sue Ellen Ewing : Well, I'm sure they weren't gonna give Cliff the award the second year in a row.

    J.R. Ewing : [scoffs]  I wouldn't.

    Sue Ellen Ewing : [as Bobby enters]  Bobby!

    J.R. Ewing : Hi, Bob. I didn't expect you home so early. I thought you'd wanna spend some time with Jenna.

    Bobby Ewing : [angrily]  I wanna talk to you!

    J.R. Ewing : [exhales]  Sure. Get yourself a nightcap.

    Bobby Ewing : I don't want a nightcap! What I wanna know is why you made that announcement tonight.

    J.R. Ewing : Well, I - I thought it would be nice for you. You're not upset about it, are you?

    Bobby Ewing : You're damn right I'm upset! If I wanted to announce my wedding plans, I'd have done it myself!

    Sue Ellen Ewing : Bobby...

    [she gets a nasty look from Bobby] 

    Bobby Ewing : But I didn't, on purpose!

    J.R. Ewing : Why not?

    Bobby Ewing : Because Pam was there.

    J.R. Ewing : Bob, you're not married to Pam anymore.

    Bobby Ewing : That doesn't mean she doesn't have feelings, J.R., she knew half the people in that room. Why embarrass her in front of everybody?

    Sue Ellen Ewing : Bobby, I'm sure that J.R. didn't mean to embarrass her.

    Bobby Ewing : I know my brother, Sue Ellen. Thank you very much.

    [to J.R.:] 

    Bobby Ewing : It was a lousy and insensitive thing to do!

    J.R. Ewing : Now, hold on!

    Bobby Ewing : I know you never liked her, J.R. But what do you have to gain by being vindictive now?

    J.R. Ewing : You got it all wrong. I wasn't thinking about Pam. I was thinking about you and Jenna and how happy I was you're getting married.

    Bobby Ewing : *I bet you were.*

    J.R. Ewing : It's true, Bob. I just wanted it to be a special evening for you both. Don't come down on me for that.

    Sue Ellen Ewing : Bobby, I think you're being unfair.

    Bobby Ewing : Fair to J.R.? That's a joke!

    Sue Ellen Ewing : Well, in any case, I think the announcement was the best thing that could have ever happened. I mean, after all, you are marrying Jenna. Pam just has to realize that her life as a Ewing is over.
