[QUOTE="Spooky Owl!, post: 437507, member: 57984"] There are some who feel Jock loved Miss Ellie more than she did him, and that she was well-aware of the discrepancy and perhaps held it over his head to a degree. Does anybody agree with that assessment? Certainly, the relationship began with Jock saving Southfork during the Depression, with Ellie later asserting that the couple was "a good match." It's quite common for women to choose men in order to access resources (even today, when women have their own money). While Jock's feelings for [I][B]her [/B][/I]were about, perhaps, "love" -- or sexual attraction, the desire for offspring? Was Jock's "love" worth anything, given his rascally nature? And was Ellie's "love" just about what he could do for her financially? [B]Jock:[/B] [I]"I had a wartime affair with Margaret Hunter which produced a child, Ray; Miss Ellie forgave me for that --- just as I've forgiven her for bearing Digger's child, the man we today call 'J.R.'..."[/I] [B]Miss Ellie:[/B] [I]"F**k you and eat sh*t, you bastard. Now smoke a pack of Marlboros and take a chopper to Colombia, you a**hole!"[/I] [IMG width="623px"]https://i.pinimg.com/736x/c0/e9/1f/c0e91f726d056bcbdcdd4d3cf40f8ba0.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
