TNT’s Dallas Scene of the Day: ‘The Prettiest Girl at the Ball’

Dallas, Hedging Your Bets, Linda Gray, Sue Ellen Ewing, TNT

He’s right

In “Hedging Your Bets,” a first-season “Dallas” episode, J.R. (Larry Hagman) approaches Sue Ellen (Linda Gray) at the Cattle Baron’s Ball.

SUE ELLEN: J.R., what are you doing here? I thought you weren’t well enough to even leave your room.

J.R.: I just came by to congratulate you. And you deserve it, honey. Look at you. And look at me. You won, honey. And I couldn’t be happier. [Turns to walk away]

SUE ELLEN: Wait.

J.R.: If you ask me, you’d make a hell of a governor. And if I do say so, you are still the prettiest girl at the ball.

    ADORABLE. Judging from spoilers I’ve read, J.R. is being genuine here. It’s not like I want them to be together because of their hot chemistry from years ago, but they’re old now and don’t have anyone else and should just be together because… just because!

  3. Destinee says:

    Oh yes, I just like to be spoiled!
