ABC of Dallas

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

I - as the internecine feud between Jock and Ellie over the Takapa project reached its breaking point, JR approached the powerful head of Weststar Oil, Jeremy Wendell, and offered to sell him Ewing Oil.

(the Texas oil titans seen above with bright young Weststar executive Dave Stratton, a college chum of Cliff Barnes)

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

K - it appeared the death knell was nigh upon a bountiful 40+ year marriage as Ellie approached esteemed attorney Lincoln Hargrave to represent her in a divorce case against Jock

L- is for Lucy Ewing Cooper

 

[Michelle Stevens]

M- What better way to memorialize Mr. Bobby James Ewing's college athletic endeavors than a football honoring that fact.

Thanks for the image @Taylor Bennett Jr. Indeed, a mantelpiece is surely a rightful place for such an item.

N- is for Nero (Angelica)

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

O - having reconciled at the prodding of Donna and Ray, Jock and Miss Ellie bade farewell to family and friends and headed overseas for a second honeymoon

(no one could have known at the time, but this was the last time Jock would see or be seen at Southfork)

Q
Quite a move forward for secretaries everywhere. Dallas did a nice job of showing that secretaries were instrumental in the success of an office.

Q - still believing he might be the father of Kristin's baby, once-amorous cartel stalwart Jordan Lee reached for his checkbook to continue to buy her silence in the matter

S
Scheming
It's fun to watch the scheming Kristin. She even kept J.R on his toes!

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

T - JR invited the Southeast Asian country's ambassador the the United Nations, His Excellency Lan Thon, to explain that JR's secret financing of the counterrevolution was strictly an act of philanthropy, allowing our dastardly hero to once again escape punishment for his underhanded actions

U - is for ulcers, something J.R. Ewing didn’t get. He gave them instead.

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

V - having crashed through the balcony railing at what must have been a frighteningly high velocity, Kristin plunged to her death in the Southfork pool

(made it to season 5 DVD!)

W- is for Wade, as in Jenna and Charlie

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

X - JR wriggled out of yet another bind as the esteemed medical examiner determined that the cause of Kristin's death was drowning, likely abetted by the presence of PCP, commonly known as 'angel dust', in her system. It's also rumored that she had ingested a drug new to the early 80s party scene, MDMA (known by street names like Ecstasy, E, X, Molly, etc.

(gotta really reach for something when it's time to come up with something novel for X!)

Y
You posted a picture of the court room. Look at it again-- have you ever seen so much fake wood?!

Y
You could have paneled 100 of Sue Ellen's station wagons with that!

 

[Taylor Bennett Jr.]

Z - in a brash act of zabernism, JR used Miss Ellie as a pawn in his attempt to abscond from the Southern Cross with John Ross

Y
You could have paneled 100 of Sue Ellen's station wagons with that!

(yes, but would it be yacht deck wood paneling?)

A
Appropriate to start the alphabet over with this post:

Yes, but would it be yacht deck wood paneling?

I love it when I'm reminded of a fun thread. For those of you who didn't see it a few years ago. Here's an advertisement for a car similar to Sue Ellen's.

We all had fun pointing out the ad bragging about Yacht Deck Wood Paneling.

B- is for Bobby Ewing
