You ain’t kidding, sister
In “Hit and Run,” a sixth-season “Dallas” episode, Bobby and Pam (Patrick Duffy, Victoria Principal) enter the Southfork living room.
BOBBY: Did your conversation with your mama really go that bad?
PAM: Mhmm. She wouldn’t listen to reason. It scares me, Bobby. [Sits]
BOBBY: [Begins fixing them drinks] Come on. It’s not going to be that easy for her to ruin Ewing Oil, even with Cliff in the cartel.
PAM: But it’s not just Ewing Oil I’m worried about. This could ruin my whole relationship with my family.
BOBBY: Pam, your mama’s not writing you off as a daughter.
PAM: No, but she’s ready to step on my life to protect Cliff’s. That doesn’t make me feel very good.
BOBBY: [Sighs] Well, I sympathize with you. I really do. [Hands her a drink, sits] But to tell you the truth, I have more on my mind right now than Cliff Barnes and your mother.
PAM: That Canadian deal?
BOBBY: Mhmm. Oh, it’s too good to pass up.
PAM: Maybe you should take it.
BOBBY: Well, it’s a long-range deal, and it’s a lot of money. And if it doesn’t come in within a year —
PAM: Before the second audit?
BOBBY: That’s right. I refuse to make a perfect deal just so J.R. can inherit it.
PAM: Well, I wish I had an answer for you, but lately I don’t seem to have any answers.
BOBBY: Well, we may not have answers, but we got each other.
PAM: [Kisses him] You’re cute, you know that?
BOBBY: [Clinks glasses with hers] I know that.
