I am not the son of a wealthy cattle or oil baron, but I would have stuck with a house and not live with my spouse in the ROOM I GREW UP IN. In the first season, the married couples had houses on property then they all lived in rooms of the main house itself. Either it’s the editing or directing, but the conversation seems to lag and no one is responding in what a normal time frame would be.Īrchitectural Digestion That is a LOT of latticework. Lucy tries to be snarky and isn’t good at it. Miss Ellie, Sue Ellen and Lucy get back from a shopping trip. She wants to take him to school (see last episode’s recap for what that metaphor means) and in doing so, he lays the Red File on the rounded edge of the sofa where it FALLS BEHIND IT. Later, Bobby is eating some food in his room, reading the Red Files and ignoring Pam for over two hours. Shouldn’t this be known as the Manilla Files With Red Tabs? This is an olds’ way of saying Jock isn’t going to make Orloff pay hisĭebts. Gets there, Jock explains to him in private he’s not going to call in Orloff’s They discuss Cliff’s vendetta against the Ewings. If playing cards and judging others by the manliness of their drinks in the afternoon (Orloff likes bourbon, straight) is what these oilmen consider work, I want Jock’s job.
She resists but takes his phone number.Īt Southfork, Jock plays cards with Senator Orloff, who previously built Dynacomps for ElectraWoman and DynaGirl. As soon as Bobby heads away, Cliff Barnes pounces on Ginger, wanting her to spill beans on the Ewings. NO, Bobby! She should have married the Professor. What is that Capri thing in the background? Probably better they didn’t have anyone on the payroll trying to come up withįun employee events or discuss enrolling in 401Ks. Could they not afford people to work on accounting, or logistics or HR?
From my count, Ewing Oil only ever had five employees in its corporate office at any one time – J.R., Bobby, their secretaries and sometimes Jock. It feels like the writers had never worked in an office setting to come up with some “tallies” as the plot device. Bobby says they have to – Daddy needs some tallies by tonight. reminds him the Red Files shouldn’t leave the office. Major Nelson and Ginger flirting is TV magic, people.īobby heads home to finish work and J.R. We learn from Ginger that J.R.’s usual choice of lunch is roast beef on rye. I feel like this building has to be big enough to give him another office while they work on this one, or he could work at home. After the disco glory and school learnin’ that was last week’s episode, this week we get back to some grown-up wheelin’ and dealin’ … and we find out what’s in at least ONE of the Red Files! The Ewings can’t afford to just BUY a credenza?īobby’s office is under extremely noisy construction.
