Oh, the humanity!
In “Where There’s Smoke,” a third-season “Dallas” episode, Ann and Harris (Brenda Strong, Mitch Pileggi) walk out of his house.
ANN: It’s crazy, everything that’s happened in that house, not to feel —
HARRIS: Repulsed?
ANN: [Sighs] Afraid. Every time I came here when I was young, even when things were good between us, I always felt so unsettled.
HARRIS: That’s called “my mother.” [Ann chuckles.] I’m sorry I was so weak, Annie.
ANN: Weak? Back then, you were the strongest man I knew.
HARRIS: Yeah, strong to you, maybe. But I let her control me too much. Listened to her too much. And it all went awry.
ANN: Well, it wasn’t just you. I was young and reckless. Running away from a life I didn’t want. You know, I think if I had paused for one second, I would’ve seen I was too young and too screwed up to think running off with anyone at 17 was a good idea.
HARRIS: I don’t know. I think we could’ve worked, Annie. I loved you. I just think we never had a chance. We should never have remained in this house, not with that woman living here. She destroys everything she ever touches. She destroyed the most important part of my life: You. [He kisses her. She lingers, then pulls away.]
ANN: I should go.
HARRIS: I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Annie. I’m sorry.
She walks away as Judith (Judith Light) watches from an upstairs window, seething.
I’d like II c Ann spread her legs 4 Harris & c how Husband Bobby James handles it.
Loved that scene too. Will he return to his villainous ways? I have a feeling the heroes of the first half of the season are about to switch places with the villains and vice versa.
I thought that bathtub scene and the argument that follows was the best, the one you chose is second, than the bobby ann fight.
I really like the way they shot that clip of Bo with all the smoke, did anyone else
