Check out the interview below, in which Howard Keel talks about becoming a DALLAS cast member. He is very coy, about Ellie. Well I suppose we have to expect that. The interviewer mentions his most popular movies, at the top of the segment. His singing, smoking and piloting are all discussed.
Clayton and Sue Ellen are going to have lunch, in downtown Dallas. He tells her Ellie has called off their impending marriage; (a scene from season 6, DVD-7, 1983-'84):
Clayton: "Marriage would cause problems. Problems with the boys, problems with Southfork."
Sue Ellen: "But you’ve been over that ground before. I thought you’d reached some kind of an understanding. Besides, Bobby and Ray are no problem."
Clayton: "I don’t believe any of the boys are a problem."
Sue Ellen: "You don’t think that J.R. has anything to do with it?"
Clayton: "No! Ellie sounded scared and that’s not like her. Very little scares her and certainly not J.R."
Sue Ellen: "Well, he could have made her feel guilty in some way."
Clayton: "No, it has to do with me. I don’t know what it is."
Sue Ellen: "Clayton, how much has Miss Ellie told you about herself? About her life with Jock?"
Clayton: "I think I know most of it. We spent a lot of time together."
Sue Ellen: "But not as together as you would be if you were married."
Clayton: "No."
Sue Ellen: "Then … don’t give up on her. I don’t think she’s told you everything."
Clayton: "Sue Ellen, I do have my pride. The woman says she doesn’t want me and I have to believe her."
Sue Ellen: "Talk to her again."
A waitress approaches, to take their order.
Clayton: "No, no, no. Thank you! Would you mind if we skipped lunch? I’d like to spend some time with myself."
Sue Ellen: "Of course. I understand."
Clayton holds out the chair, for Sue Ellen. They walk off.
