John Ross stood looking out of his office window. It's been four months since J.R. was lost in South America. John Ross now knows what his daddy felt like when Jock was lost. Now, forty years later, J.R.'s fate was the same as Jock's. John Ross was still looking out of the window when his sectary walked in.

"Excuse me sir, it's after six, would you be needing anything else?" Selena was a tall six-foot red head and had worked for Ewing Oil for almost a year.

"No, you can go home." John Ross said, not looking away from the window.

"Sir, is something wrong?" Selena walked closer to John Ross.

"Everything is fine...” John Ross looked at Selena and noticed a look in her eyes. Selena walked up to John and rub his arms.

"Sir, let me...." Before she could finish John Ross kissed her; they stay there for a minute kissing...

Megan and Ross walked along the streets of Dallas. Every now and then the two siblings would go and have a night out.

"Megan, this has been a good night, I'm glad you and I do this." Ross looked at his sister. Megan just looked up. John wondered what she was looking at then he noticed. They were walking in front of The Starr Oil Company. "Sis, if you miss him, call him."

"Ross, it's not that simple." Megan said, looking at her younger brother.

"Everything is that simple. All you have to do is swallow that Ewing pride." Ross put his arm around his sister and they walked on passed the building.

Sam Starr was wrapping things up at the office. He had just hung up the phone, and was picking up his briefcase. The door came open and Frankie walked into the office.

"Hello daddy." Frankie said looking at his father. Sam looked up and held back a smile.

"What brings you back?" Sam asked.

"I felt it was time. Time to get back, time to get my life back. And most importantly time to get my woman back." Frankie walked up to his father’s desk.

"And what about your mother and me?" Sam asked sitting on his desk.

"I want you guys back. But I warn you father, if you try to get in-between me and Megan...The Starr/Ewing feud will be nothing compared to the Starr War!" Frankie turned and started for the door.

"Son, don't threaten me. You know what can happen." Sam said with an evil grin.

"That’s right, I know ALOT!" Frankie walked out and slammed the door shut.

John Ross and Selena are lying on the sofa in his office. John Ross had wanted her from the minute he hired her, but never tried to pursue it. Now he was laying next to her, naked. It was great.

"Selena, I hate to, but I need to get home. I'm already late." John Ross stood up and Selena smiled.

"I know, I..." Selena got really quiet. "Did you hear that?"

"What?" John Ross asked while pulling his pants up" Then John Ross heard it too. "Oh, Shoot, that was the door." Before John Ross could say another word the door to his office opened and Pamala Rebecca walked in.

With out even looking she said: "Hey honey what do you say..."Then she noticed. "You stupid son of a...."

"Pam, I..." John Ross couldn't say anything.

"John you've screwed me for the last time." Pamala Rebecca started out the door.

"What are you going to do?" John asked

"Don't worry, I won't divorce you, but you will pay." Pamala Rebecca slammed the door and walked out of Ewing Oil.

The next morning Christopher and Karen were walking out by the barns of Southfork.

"Honey, I think I want to stay at the Ranch more, maybe help Bobby." Christopher looked over at Karen.

"Why?" Something wrong at the office?" Karen asked.

"John Ross is just so...he is too much like J.R. I don't want us to be like Dad and uncle J.R. was. I don't want to be a babysitter; James will be coming back soon, so he can take my place. I'm okay with leaving the oil business. "

"If that’s what you want, then I'll stand behind." Karen pulled Christopher closer and kissed him.

The nurse walked into the dark Hospital room. For the past four months. Sue Ellen Ewing lay unconscious, not even showing the slightest bit of movement. John Ross walked into the room. He sat down next to his mother’s bedside and held her hand. Thoughts of his childhood filled his mind. Thinking about all the times his mother was there for him.

“Please wake up momma. I need you” John Ross had tears coming down from his eyes. “Momma, I messed up, again. I can’t believe how much like Dad I really am.” John Ross laid his head on Sue Ellen’s stomach and laid there for awhile.

Frankie sat on a bench across the street from Wades of Dallas. He had been sitting there for about an hour, but it soon paid off. He saw Megan walking up to the front of the building. Frankie hurried across the street and ran up behind her. Megan reached for the door, but was held back.

"May I help you miss?" Frankie said has he opened the door. Megan turned and saw the man she loved standing behind her.

"Frankie? I...I thought you had left town." Megan said with a cold look.

"I'm back, and I want to talk to you." Frankie said has he let the door close.

"I said everything to you in the Park four months ago." Megan reached for the door again. But Frankie stopped her.

"Meg, please, I love you, I...." Frankie was cut off.

"Yeah, you loved me so much that you tried to use me to get into Ewing Oil. Why don't you go back where you came from and leave me alone!" Megan opened the door and walked into the Restaurant.

She walked to the middle of the Restaurant and went up a staircase that leads to her mother’s office.

"Hi, Annie" Megan said to Pamala's secretary as she was about to walk into the office.

"Morning Miss Ewing, Your mother isn't here yet, she called and said she would be late." Annie said.

"Oh, ok, I'll just go on in and wait." Megan walked into the office and sat in her mother’s chair. "Oh, Frankie..." Megan’s mind went to Frankie and she couldn't get him out of it.

John Willard and Ross walked into school. They were about to go their separate ways when they noticed Neil Chapel running up to them.

“John, Ross, I’m glad I found you.”

“Neil, what’s wrong?” John asked.

“Chad Bradford is getting out of Junior Prison next month, and it has been heard that he will be after the ones who put him in there.” Neil looked at John and Ross

The Two Cousins looked at each other. Chad had been put in the Jr. Prison because some how his parents heard that he tried to rape Jeanie. But neither of the Ewing cousins had called and reported it. But of course, no one listened, and everyone knows that Chad always keeps his word.

Bobby and Lucas were riding out in a field. Lucas and Amy had been given a third of The Krebbs Ranch, so they decided that Dallas was a better place to live.

"Lucas," Bobby said has they were riding side by side. "Did Ray say anything to you about eight percent of Ewing Oil?"

"No, why would he, he didn't own any stock in it." Lucas responded.

"That’s not exactly true. Dad had given his eight- percent to Ray for safekeeping. And now that Ray is gone, I'm not sure what will come of it." Bobby stopped his horse and turned to see Lucas.

"No, I didn't know that, and since it wasn't in his Will, I don't know what happened to it." Lucas also stopped his horse.

"Dad will be coming in for the Memorial Services, so we'll find out then." Bobby and Lucas started of towards the Ranch once more.

Christopher walked into Ewing Oil and greeted the sectaries, then knocked on John Ross's door. There was a silence, than John Ross said for him to come in. Christopher opened the door and noticed John Ross looking at a piece of paper.

"What’s that John Ross?" Christopher asked as he sat down.

"Look at it." John Ross handed Christopher the paper. "That was delivered right before you got here."

"So what’s the big deal," Christopher said, looking it over.

"Remember when we merged with Wentworth and Pam waived her right to own stock in the company?"

'Yes, I remember it made you pretty happy."

"Well, this piece of paper says that she wants her five percent. Now we need to get with the stock holders and divide it up." John Ross turned and looked out the window.

"No, John Ross, YOU have to give her five percent. According to the paper." Christopher had a grin on his face when John Ross turned back around.

"What?" John said grabbing the paper. "But you are also the president, so..."

"So, nothing, the paper says that John Ross is to give Pamala her fair shares that was waived at the time of the merger." Christopher sat back into the chair.

"So you won't help me out?"

"John Ross, I helped you when Ewing Incorporated bought out and merged with West Star. I helped you by up stock, so that only the Ewings would own the company. Now, I will help you, you give her three shares, and I'll give two." Christopher stood up and looked at his cousin.

"That means you would have..."

"...More shares than you John Ross, and yes, I would be President." Christopher opened the door. "John Ross, you better take me up on my offer, because if you don't, then you'll be giving Pam five percent instead of three." Christopher shut the door and went into his office.

John Ross sat at his desk not saying a word. Now after all this time, he would lose his position in his company. "I'll get it back....somehow...." John Ross got up and walked out of the office.
