[QUOTE="stevew, post: 74113, member: 130"] In the living room of Southfork Sue Ellen says what do you mean you have to go to South America?" "I'll be in Caracas and Maracaibo." "Why you?" "Ewing Oil bought a company with ties in Venezuela. Our partners don't want meetings with seconds." "You're not the President of Ewing Oil." "I just need you to know. I have to do this. I can't hide away at Southfork and think everything will be OK. If something happens I need you to rely on Mateo." "Happens. John Ross you can't go." Bo asks, "What's this company that's so important?" "A Spanish company, De Le Vega Resources. It was Venezuelan. They're partnered with the Cano Group. The Cano family has it in for us, as you'll all aware." Sue Ellen, on the verge of tears says, "That's why you can't go." "Cliff Barnes was dealing with them to steal Chris's methane extraction patents. Vicente is the one that held us captive. There have been dealings with the Cano family and an American for sometime, against this family." "Who?" Bo asks. "I've got to handle this. They're also the team that put the hit a grandpa, why he didn't return. He was down there setting up trouble." Sue Ellen yells, "And now that's what you plan on doing." "Grandpa went down there blind for the government and they didn't back him up. I'm not going down blind. And I've got my own back up. And I've got some friends inside. But the fact is they're not going to leave us alone until we deal with them and can prove they'd better leave us alone." Bo says, "They stated the fire on the ranch?" "Yes. There are people that have a problem with low oil prices. I'm not going to teach my boys to hide out. This will be a message to everyone, put up with us or else." Sue Ellen hugs her son. He whispers, "Just listen to Mateo. Bo can handle Wendell. Mateo will take care of everything else and if I don't come back, you make sure those boys know I love them. And Pamela too." Holding back her tears, Sue Ellen shakes her head yes. Sue Ellen runs into Pamela's apartment. "Please. Please you've got to call him. He'll stay if you tell him to." "What are you talking about?" Pamela sits up calmly from reading a book. "John Ross. He's gone off to some business deal in Venezuela. He made it sound like there's a chance he won't make it back. I want you to call him. Tell him to come home, now. He'll listen to you." Pamela quickly takes out her phone and calls, "What business deal?" "I don't know. Oil I'm sure." Getting voice mail Pamela says, "John Ross this is Pamela. Your mother's here. She says you're in Venezuela. Listen to me you selfish son of a bitch. You've got three kids relying on you and you already have more than enough money! So get back here and be a man and take care of this family!" She then throws the phone across the room. "Can you get a hold of Mateo?" "Yes." "He's still here?" "As far as I know." "Tell him to meet us at Southfork?" Mateo walks into the living room of Southfork and Pamela yells at him, "I know you know how to get a hold oh John Ross. Call him right now. I want to talk to him." "No!" She beats on his chest. "Don't give me no. Call him! Anything happens to him I swear to you!" "I'm not calling him." Mateo holds her back. "How could he? Do you know what it'll do to his sons? His mother? . . . His brother?" "You?" "I don't give a damn. Except for my boys. And Sue Ellen. She doesn't deserve this." "I'm not calling him." "He's a selfish prick. Always was. Never thinks about anyone but himself and money!" "That's enough." Mateo walks into the entry to leave. "Don't tell me it's enough." Pamela follows him. "What's never enough is money for him and he's willing to sacrifice people who do love him, including my kids and his own mother!" Turning back to confront her he says, "You think it's money? You're kidding right? You really think the kind of money you deal with happens without enemies?" "I don't deal with the filth he does!" "That's because he does it for you. You think you got those leases in the Darnell Basin without people violently objecting?" "What did he do?" "That's for John Ross tell you. He's had to deal with people hurting this family again and again. You have no idea. It's about time you do. He used Emma Ryland to get at her father. One of the people behind killing your babies!" "What!" "Your father didn't act alone. He dealt with Harris Ryland and Manuel Cano. You remember Vicente Cano? Held you at gun point in this house. The Cano family killed Jock Ewing long before you were born and acted with your father and Harris Ryland, the Mendez-Ochoa Cartel was their puppet, and they were just as guilty of killing your babies, you stupid bitch!" She goes to object. "Your dad's in a nut house in Mexico and Harris Ryland is locked up in solitaire in Florence for his own protection. You want me to tell you the shit they did to your dad? Your two aunt ain't been seen in decades. Christopher. And do you really think your grandmas plane just dropped out of the sky? There are a hell of a lot of people John Ross has had to deal with to keep this family safe." "Oh my god." "So no I won't call him because he's doing what he has to do. You could live a hundred life times and you'd never be good enough for him, and I'm sick of you walking around thinking otherwise." Mateo walks out of the house, leaving the front door wide open. Bo walks in from the back. "What's going on?" Sue Ellen holds Pamela. John Ross and Nolan meet with a man who introduces himself as JuanCarlos Mantuano. "So glad you could make it. People aren't willing to stick there neck out unless they know the Americans will back them up." "That's why I'm here. You start the coup and I assure you, we've got your back. This is my friend Nolan Cohen." "Welcome Mr. Cohen. The Cano family will be our major obstacle here in Maracaibo but I hear you've got De La Vaga." "Ewing Oil owns sixty percent of De La Vega S.A. which owns all of De La Vega of Venezuela, or is suppose to." "And the De La Vega family are supportive?" "Eager to return to Maracaibo. De Le Vaga S.A. also acquired a forty percent share of the Cano Group." "And by business owns another forty percent." "Looks like we're ready to go." Pamela, Sue Ellen, Ben and Amy watch a television news report about a revolution breaking out in Maracaibo. In South America a war explodes in the city and pushes into the jungle. John Ross runs with Nolan up and into a private plane. The jet races down the runway and takes off. Fighters approach and then escort it. Inside the plane, on the phone, John Ross says, "Done. We've set in place a revolution that'll turn Maracaibo over to us . . . Venezuela will fall apart piece by piece . . . Just set it up so I can finally meet him." John Ross walks into a very beautiful living room, the sitting room of a wealthy and powerful person, an older man standing by the fireplace. "You must be John Ross Ewing the third." "And you must be the man I've been eager to meet after all these years. The man that handled the Barnes Wentworth family." "You're welcome." "You destroyed Cliff Barnes. He's a babbling fool. Locked up for his own protection. But not before he hurt his daughter and kill her babies." "Collateral damage." John Ross takes a gun from his back and at point black range blows the man's head apart. Blood splatters everywhere and his body falls to the floor. "Pamela's off limits." John Ross then walks back out of the room, stopping at the door to meet the old man from the tarmac. He takes blood from his chest and smears it on old man's face. "That takes care of your supposed rouge member. I'm sure you can clean up the mess." John Ross continues to walk out when the man's words stops him. "We have an opening. If you're interested." John Ross stands there without turning to look back at him. A television news anchor says, "CalcoPreston's board voted today on a break up of the company. CalcoPreston will become the nation's largest pure play oil company while Calco will assume shipping, refining and marketing. David Wendell will serve as Chairman and Pamela Ewing as President and CEO of CalcoPreston. Wall Street Titian, Mitchell Negley," showing a picture of the man from the tarmac, "will take over Calco as its Chairman and move the company's headquarters to Detroit, Michigan. Lucas Spelman died," showing a picture of the man John Ross shot, "of a massive brain hemorrhage in his New York estate, Stonehurst. Oil and finance magnet, Spelman operated behind the scenes on many deals here in Dallas." The Ewings gather out back for a family barbecue. John Ross mans the grill. Sue Ellen, Isabell and the house keeper bring other food out from the kitchen. Pamela arrives to join them. He boys rushing up to her. Mateo says to John Ross, "Just heard from my inside contact, David Wendell's meeting with his sons* to figure out how to politically block West Star's new refinery. Which of course then Ewing Oil will have to figure out what to do with all their Darnell oil." "Well that's no good. Oh by the way, since pipeline for CalcoPreston's Darnell oil now belongs to Calco, Ryland Transport bought it, thanks to Bo." Mateo grins. "After dinner talk to Amy, she what are media people can do about the Wendell's." "If not some tentacle of the Ewing Empire should do it, media investments, lobbyist, lawyers, accountants, grassroots organizations, think tanks and academics, and physical force." "Branch-water is a as necessary kind of thing, but I leave that to you." John Ross pats him on the shoulder and takes the stakes over to the table. The Ewing family gather eating and reminiscing. *I messed up and used the name Mateo for David's youngest son and Elena and Drew Ramon's brother. I'll keep the later and change Mateo Wendell to Luis Wendell. [/QUOTE]
