[QUOTE="Kenny Coyote, post: 198066, member: 102"] I'm glad I'm not the only one who found it curious he'd say that. I'm trying to think of an example of a time when Bobby acted wimpy in seasons one through eight. I can think of times when he acted entitled! That's easy. In early Dallas he goes from being the road man for Ewing Oil, to briefly working with JR, quits that to get into construction, then goes back to work with JR for a little while, quits again and goes into solar energy. He goes into politics briefly, but quits that. Is there any way that such an indecisive man would have any reasonable expectation that just because he was filling in for JR while he was recovering from being shot, that he should be able to decide to just keep JR's job? Bobby had no management experience and he wanted to get into the top management job in the whole company. He's so entitled that he can't conceive of actually working his way up to that position; he just wants daddy to hand it to him. Then when he gets any criticism from Jock, Bobby says if he can't run daddy's company exactly the way he wants to, with no questions asked, he and Pam will pack up and move to California. He's like the kid who if he doesn't get his way he's gonna take his ball and go home! Bobby definitely feels entitled. He can really be a spoiled brat. Was that what Patrick Duffy was referring to?
