Some Do... Some Don't (1984)

Larry Hagman: J.R. Ewing

Quotes 

• Katherine Wentworth : [lying back on bed, head hanging down]  I never thought this would happen. Ever since we met,

  [shakes her head] 

  Katherine Wentworth : It's been like a game. And finally one of us won.

  J.R. Ewing : [getting dressed]  Well... it wasn't exactly the Olympics. Of course, they got four years of practice.

  [chuckles] 

  Katherine Wentworth : Don't rush off. You know, you told me some time ago that you'd help me break up Bobby and Jenna.

  [rubs his shoulder] 

  Katherine Wentworth : Nothing's happened.

  J.R. Ewing : Now don't tell me you made the ultimate sacrifice just to get my help.

  Katherine Wentworth : [shrugs]  Well, this is what you wanted.

  [adding firmly:] 

  Katherine Wentworth : Now what about what I want?

  J.R. Ewing : Well... I have a little problem there.

  Katherine Wentworth : [smiles]  I thought there were never any problems for you, J.R.

  J.R. Ewing : Katherine, much as I like you - and I like you a lot now - I think Bobby and Jenna are a match made in heaven.

  Katherine Wentworth : [frowns, sits upright]  You what? Look, you promised me...

  J.R. Ewing : I promised that if we went to bed, I'd help you. But I just wanted to find out how far you were willing to go to get Bobby, that's all.

  [shakes his head] 

  Katherine Wentworth : [seethes]  Don't even dream of double-crossing me.

  J.R. Ewing : [stares her down]  Well... Katherine, don't threaten me, honey. You're out of your league. Besides...

  [gets his tie] 

  J.R. Ewing : Bobby and Jenna belong together.

  [puts it on] 

  J.R. Ewing : After all, he is the father of her little girl.

  Katherine Wentworth : Say you don't know that! Not for sure.

  J.R. Ewing : Oh, yes, I do. I've known for a long time. You see, I have a friend over in Rome who got me a copy of the birth certificate, uh, years ago. I thought that was the reason you went over there. Oh, I wish I could have seen your face when you found out that Bobby was the father.

  Katherine Wentworth : [shrugs defiantly]  I don't care if he is the father.

  [shrugs] 

  Katherine Wentworth : I want him. And I'll get him.

  J.R. Ewing : Mm. Maybe yes, maybe no. But you've just done something that's gonna keep you from getting Bobby for good. Did you ever meet a lady named Holly Harwood?

  Katherine Wentworth : [frowns]  Just once. She made a *disgusting* play for Bobby in my presence.

  J.R. Ewing : I think Bobby might have liked her. She made the same mistake you did, honey.

  [picks up his jacket] 

  J.R. Ewing : She slept with me. If she ever *did* have a chance with him, that knocked her *right* out of the box.

  Katherine Wentworth : Oh, I'm sure there were other reasons.

  J.R. Ewing : [picks up device]  I wouldn't put it to the test if I were you. No, you just do what I want when I want, and nobody will ever know about tonight.

  Katherine Wentworth : [shakes her head]  Not so fast, J.R. It is your word against mine. And why would Bobby *possibly* believe you?

  J.R. Ewing : Oh,

  [turns around] 

  J.R. Ewing : he might not believe me, but he will believe his own ears.

  [holds up cassette] 

  J.R. Ewing : He may never have heard you under these conditions... but you have a very distinctive voice no matter what you're saying.

  [she exhales in exasperation] 

  J.R. Ewing : Would you like me to play it back for you?

  Katherine Wentworth : [shakes her head, croaks:]  No...

  J.R. Ewing : [turns to leave]  I'll call you.

  [leaves her behind feeling very foolish to have fallen for his trick]
