Pamela Barnes Ewing : [sees him checking out] Alex?
Alex Ward : [chipper but formal] Good morning.

Pamela Barnes Ewing : Alex...
Alex Ward : Pam... I wanna be absolutely honest with you.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : I'm not sure I want to hear this.
Alex Ward : All my life, I have been the one that's pursued, and that's not ego. It's just a statement of fact. But since we met, and especially the last couple of nights here, it's... it's been all one-sided. I've... been doing the pursuing. Obviously, not well enough.
Pamela Barnes Ewing : I'm so sorry. I'm just not ready. You know that.
Alex Ward : Yes, I do. And you know how I feel about you, Pam. I made that clear.
[looks down, then at her again:]
Alex Ward : If Bobby ever... really neglects you... call me.
[walks away, leaving Pamela staring after him sadly]
