- Sue Ellen Ewing: [about Garrison Southworth] Well, that old man is not gonna cheat my child out of his inheritance!
- J.R. Ewing: Sue Ellen, the Ewings are on Southfork to stay, honey, I'll take care of that.
- Garrison Southworth: [referring to J.R] You've trained this one well, Jock. He opens his mouth, I can almost see dollar signs rolling out.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: I'm not angry any more, Jock. At least I found out you love this ranch as much as I do. I'm only sorry I found out this way.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: Garrison...
- Garrison Southworth: Hello Ellie.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: Oh my God... all these years, I... I thought you were dead.
- Garrison Southworth: I know. That's the way I wanted it.
- Jock Ewing: [about Garrison] Been away for 40 years and all he talks about is Digger Barnes.
- Garrison Southworth: Well, I see the feud's still going on.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Well it makes some people happy.
- Cathy Baker: I told you, Garrison, I would never lie to you.
- Garrison Southworth: Why not, I've had enough honesty. Lie to me!
- Miss Ellie Ewing: I've never understood why you never liked him.
- Jock Ewing: Well, it's just the other way around, Miss Ellie. I was the the outsider. Big successful oilman. He and his buddy Digger Barnes, they resented that. Both ran away. Garrison to the sea, Digger to the bottle.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: Jock, you're being too harsh.
- Jock Ewing: I've seen a lot of men sniffing around, hungry for something that didn't belong to 'em. Garrison has that look.
- Miss Ellie Ewing: He came home to see me.
- Jock Ewing: When I'm sure that's all it is, I'll apologize to you for what I'm thinking, Miss Ellie.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: [as they shake hands] I'm Pamela Ewing, Bobby's wife...
- Garrison Southworth: Oh, yes...
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: ...and Digger's daughter.
- Garrison Southworth: [grinning] Digger's daughter? Is that a fact? A Barnes married to a Ewing. Well, if I'd known that, I might have come home sooner.
- [to Jock:]
- Garrison Southworth: I'll bet you choked on that one, Jock.
- Bobby Ewing: [she doesn't want him to go] I think I have just been invited to play hooky.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: [playfully] Or something.
- Bobby Ewing: Hmm. It's very tempting, but I have three meetings I cannot miss.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Oh...
- Bobby Ewing: Sorry.
- Pamela Barnes Ewing: Okay.
