John Ross says, “They’re getting everything set up Luce.”   “Great.  It’s gonna be big too.  We’ve already sold out and the DOA wants to expand.  They’re looking at bringing in carnival rides and a second week.”  “I’ve got a ranch to run here.”  “I know but the money we’re raising.  It’s important.  Just bear with me.   Oh.  And I spoke to Jolie and Lucas, finally.   They’re in Sydney now.   For the week.”“Oh great.  Must be nice, just traveling.  Not a care in the world.”   “Yes it must.”   Southfork fills up with people in the evening from out by the barns to up by the house, everything lit up the night before the rodeo.  As cars drops off guests behind the house Lucy, John Ross and Pamela welcome them.  The two from the limousine who came to talk to John Ross approach.   John Ross says, “These are friends of mine from out east, Hugh Tryon and McKenzie Felix.”   Lucy and Pamela welcome them to Southfork.  Steven noticed Paul standing with a group of people looking at the horses in the stalls.  “Paul?”  Paul excused himself and walks over to Steven.  “I figured I’d run into you.  Beautiful horses.”“I don’t understand why you’re here.”“I was hired on at Ewing Industries.  I’m overseeing sort of the cultural shift from oil and energy to commodities.  Well and Branch Water’s role.  The companies really gotten into this paramilitary investment.”“Yeah, I.    Can we talk?”“We are.”  “I mean about us.   Alone.”“No.  I’m sorry Steven.  I didn’t mean to make you feel bad.  I’m older and in a different place.  You enjoy your life and thank you for the time you spent with me.”  “No I don’t want it to be over.”  “But it is.”   Paul goes back to his companions.  John Ross walks with Hugh looking over the property and rodeo set up, walking away from the crowd.  “I heard you spoke to Juan Carlos DelSol about what we talked about.”John Ross says, “I still don’t know all nine members.”“There are twelve.  Nine American and the the Lockwood’s, DelSol’s and Rosenthal’s.   There’s a lot of talk about your purges.  Prople are impressed, how you handled things, and replacing them with friends.  Even working with Burkcroft’s brother.”“Keep your friends close, your enemies closer kind of thing.”“I was thinking, do on to others before they do onto you, something your father once said.  It was his idea to replace Burkcroft with you.   With the Ewing’s.”   “My father liked the long game.”“That he did.”“I’m just not sure I want to continue.”“The cost to your family, you mean.  Logan in particular.  But John Ross, are you any safer alone or in competition with us?  Really competition is good is something you tell the neophytes.  The fact is Burkcroft failed.  He believed he could make a deal with the enemy and it cost him his life.  Your grandfather new the value of associations.  Look at his role in the cartel.  They did what they had to do to survive and prosper.  But in the end technology changes everything.  Hence the evolution of Ewing Oil.  Look how GM and Ford reclaimed the car industry through electric cars and automation.  And what did that cost your business?”“And what’s next.”“Technologies that will make your natural gas investment worthless.  All in time.  See our investment is in innovation.  Things are changing fast, with the return of manufacturing to the US with cheap automation, things are changing fast.  We both know Jack and Ellie will be able to follow you.  You don’t have to worry about the succession of the Ewing’s.”Pamela meets up with Micheal and Roger Burckcroft.  Welcome to Southfork.  Glad you could make it.  I hope you’ll be here for the rodeo tomorrow.”“Wouldn’t miss it for the world.”  Michael says to Roger, “This is Pamela Ewing.  She runs Ewing Industries.  She’s helped us finance our share of Billcore.”  “Nice to meet you Mrs. Ewing.  I’m glad this ugly fight between my uncle and your husband hasn’t continued.  It cost us all to much.” “Yes it did.”  John Ross rolls over in bed, tossing and turning.  [MEDIA=youtube]-974Yeu5MtU[/MEDIA][MEDIA=youtube]d0o9UEgwxwo[/MEDIA][MEDIA=youtube]plt3SIRLm1Y[/MEDIA]<a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LchMT-gpLQE" target="_blank">https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=LchMT-gpLQE</a><a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ADBkApBoN9E" target="_blank">https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ADBkApBoN9E</a>John Ross wakes up in a sweat.  Pamela holds him.  “Are you OK?”“Yes I’m fine . . .  It’s just . . .”“I’ve got a lot on my mind.”  “You can tell me.  Logan?”“A lot of things.  I wish . . .”“What?”“I was wise enough for all of this . . .”Lucy watches Colin leave Karin’s cottage early in the morning.  She then walks up and knocks on the door.  A surprised Karin answers.  “Did yo tell him?”“Tell him what?”  “Don’t play games with me.  Did you tell him you were pregnant?”  “How did you know?”“This is my town.  I know everything there is to know.  At least when it comes to my family.  Speaking of such, did you also tell him you’re not sure he’s the the father?”</blockquote>
