Dallas: JR Ewing gets into hot water with Jock - JR tells Bobby he’s an only child

JR Ewing gets into hot water with Jock - JR tells Bobby he’s an only child.

[@JaimeGirl]

The only man who could shut down JR Ewing with a word- Jock. Jim Davis was a badass cowboy

[@jamescressey3390]

I couldn't agree more

[@nm1raider758]

Miss Ellie could shut Jr. Down as well!

[@Ebd1990]

I seen miss Ellie leave Jock speechless a few times . Miss Ellie was soft spoken but when she got mad, JR or Jock couldn’t do nothing with her.

Jock was a fabulous character and Jim Davis was perfect in that role. As good as the show managed to be without him, I sure wish he'd been around longer.

Agreed

[@hardren101]

Show was never the same after his death...I often wonder, how the storyline might have played out had he been around...I do not believe Jr & Sue-Ellen wld have divorced n I damn sure don't believe they wld have ever lost Ewing Oil.

[@smoothbro9711]

One of the few times I ever saw JR looked so defeated even Bobby felt sorry for him when Jock told him to sit down and shut up

[@laminage]

Yes, but keep in mind that it was JR's fault. He did a very bad business deal, put Southfork in Jeopardy and got "Daddy" very angry. After Jock "dissed" him in front of Vaughn Leland, he was so humiliated. Until the day Jock died, JR acted like a "Scared Needy Little Boy" who never had Daddy's love unconditionally. On Soaps that's seen alot. On Guiding Light Roger Thorpe played by Michael Zaslow had that with his Father Adam Thorpe. Co-Incidentally Larry made his Bones on it's Sister Show The Edge Of Night.

Miss Ellie was always haunted by the depression and how the Southworths almost lost everything.

[@SouthSideLadyWright]

Smh, if Ms Ellie married Digger Barnes, she definitely would've lost her home. Jock had it all together and Ms Ellie married him though she loved Digger. But Digger was a drunk and spent all his money on booze

[@laminage]

​@@SouthSideLadyWrightRight On. Also Jock loved his cocktails 🎉 he never allowed it to affect Business.

[@laminage]

You also noticed that JR drank as a "Coping Mechanism". Also Bobby & JR should know that while they "Ran" Ewing Oil, it was first and foremost "Jock's". He started it from scratch, he had his setbacks when he was wildcatting and partnering with Digger Barnes, also he knew never to take heavy financial chances when certain assets would be in Jeopardy.

[@SnowDaulphin]

These episodes leading to JR getting shot are TV’s finest ever and this story about how JR risked everything for the Asian oil wells and how it all ended up becoming a cash cow temporarily and then screwing over the cartel before the nationalization just stands alone as great storytelling.

[@hardren101]

The writing was great but what made it classic TV at it all-time best was the right actors in the right roles...The orig cast had a truly amazing Chemistry...Jim Davis was born 2 play Jock, Bel Geddes was amazing as the refined matriarch that spoke softly but carried a big stick, but the greatest casting...Hagman as the devil himself...Jr. Ewing...."Your overstepping ur place Miss.Ellie....My place?, what is my place?, It isn't running this ranch, It isn't RUNNING EWING BUSINESS, it isn't deciding what we keep n what we give away."

Dallas was the best of all times!! Jock was a bad ass. Love the fights with with Bobby Jr. Loved the fights when Jock Ray and Bobby took on a bar.

[@Ebd1990]

My favorite part of that fight is when they beat up the men and on the way out Jock said 300.00 aught to cover it buddy, and handed the bartender 300.00 after they destroyed the place. Then when they got outside Jock said “the best fight I have had and I loved it boy”. RIP to the character Jock Ewing and the actor Jim Davis. Who was a real man. 🙂 oh and Bobby is not a Jr. JR is the jr. And you left JR out your comment about the fight. He was scared to get up and get roughed up but don’t forget the last part of the fight he knocked that man in the head with a beer glass when the man got punched and fell by JR and JR smacked him with that glass. I guess he did his part.😂🤣

Thought Bobby would agree with his dad considering how mad he was about JR mortgaging Southfork. 75 cents on the dollar seemed like a good idea or good deal given how it seemed to break the family.

[@laminage]

@@SnowDaulphin Bobby was "Smarter" he knew never to "question" what Daddy decided in front of Business Associates. Only after did he try to be the voice of reason. Also when Vaughn Leland confronted JR about the Asian Deals that made him go Bankrupt, he turned to Bobby for help and Bobby said "You Know Where I Stand". Even when Bobby knew what JR was wrong and bad and evil, he'd never go against JR especially in front of a Business Associate and certainly not Daddy.
