A police car drives up to where Bobby is working with the
ranch hands, he goes over and they tell him that he's under arrest for the
assault of Harris Ryland.
Bobby tells his lawyer that the only reason why Ryland is doing
this is so he can get his hooks in on Ann. The lawyer tells Bobby that
there's a deal on the table, he asks what the deal is. His lawyer tell him that all Harris wants is
an apology. Bobby says he won't do it, his
lawyer tells him that that Ryland has his tentilcales around everyone and
everything and can destroy everything for Bobby. Bobby changes the subject and asks about what
they found on JR. He tells Bobby that they found nothing. He tells him that JR has been very
careful. Bobby says if Marta and JR did business then there had to be at
the nursing home. His lawyer gives him some information he got on JR's
private eye, Bum.
Christopher go see Rebecca, she guesses that Elena told him. He asked her where his brother is, she tells
him that he is gone, that she told him to leave. Christopher thinks that this is just another
ruse. Rebecca tells him that she isn't
lying. He says that she's been lying to
him for the past two years. She tells
him that she's having a baby and whether or not he's her husband he is the
father. Christopher tells her crazy and
that he thinks that this is just another scheme of hers. Rebecca tells that he can think whatever you
want but she thinks that he would have been more adult about it, considering
what his birth parents did to him. Christopher

lying about this, he says that she lied about everything else. He tells them that they made an appointment
at the doctor and they are going to get a paternity test. Bobby asked if he really thinks that Rebecca
would have been unfaithful, Christopher says he doesn't know, but that she's a
liar. Ann tells him that she's trying to
do right by him and all that he's being is spiteful and cruel. Ann apologizes after Christopher leaves and
tells Bobby she doesn't know what's gotten into her lately. He asked if

and she would have talked to Gary, he says that would have done no good. She asks if he heard from JR. John Ross

that's how JR wants it. She tells him
that he owes people oil but it doesn't have to be Southfork oil. She asks
about Elena's fields, he says that he won't drag her into this mess. John
Ross says that Elena's the one good thing in his life and wants to keep it that
way.
