Linda Gray: Sue Ellen Ewing

Quotes 

• Sue Ellen Ewing : There is one more Ewing.

  J.R. Ewing : John Ross? I don't count him as a Ewing yet.

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Well, I was thinking about Jamie.

  J.R. Ewing : You don't think I consider her a Ewing, do you?

  Sue Ellen Ewing : What I was about to say is that, uh... she and I went shopping today, and, uh... we have a little surprise for you.

  J.R. Ewing : [perky tone]  She going back to Alaska?

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Stop that.

  J.R. Ewing : [chuckles]  I'm just teasing, hey?

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Come on.

  J.R. Ewing : All right, what is the surprise?

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Well, just a second.

  [walks towards stairway] 

  Sue Ellen Ewing : I know how you love surprises.

  [calls up:] 

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Come on, Jamie.

  [and Jamie comes down the stairs, a vision of loveliness] 

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Isn't she beautiful?

  J.R. Ewing : Well,

  [scoffs] 

  J.R. Ewing : it's amazing what a few thousand dollars can do, isn't it?

  [Jamie loses her smile] 

  Sue Ellen Ewing : Oh, J.R., what a terrible thing to say.

  J.R. Ewing : Really? Well, what's next? Are we gonna cap her teeth?

  Jamie Ewing : [hurt tone]  There's nothing wrong with my teeth.

  J.R. Ewing : Oh, I guess not. You're sure taking a big enough bite out of the Ewing apple.

  Jamie Ewing : You know, I didn't ask for any of this.

  J.R. Ewing : Well, I know how hard it must have been for Sue Ellen to convince you to take it.

  Sue Ellen Ewing : As a matter of fact, it was.

  J.R. Ewing : [to Jamie]  Well, congratulations, young lady, on finding yourself a *real* nice home.

  Jamie Ewing : You know, you're really something. No wonder my Daddy didn't want to have anything to do with you.

  [turns to go back upstairs] 

  J.R. Ewing : Well, it's a shame you're not more like him.

  [Jamie fleds up the stairs] 

  J.R. Ewing : Oh, now, don't go away mad.

  Sue Ellen Ewing : How can you be so cruel?

  J.R. Ewing : Not cruel... suspicious.

  Sue Ellen Ewing : I thought you had changed. But I still see a lot of the old J.R. The one I *hated.*

  [walks away] 

  Teresa : [J.R. walks on to the dining table, sits down solo]  Will you be eating alone?

  J.R. Ewing : Yeah. Seems like it, doesn't it?
