‘Dallas’ Season 2 Episode 12: “A Call to Arms"

On tonight’s season 2 episode of the TNT TV show Dallas, “A Call to Arms,” with the clock ticking in the wake of Cliff and Ryland putting Ewing Energies on the verge of collapse, the Ewings battle back with J.R.’s masterpiece to guide them. Christopher and John Ross attempt to bring Pamela into the fold by turning her against her father, but at the risk of alienating her completely. Meanwhile, Bobby is on the brink of exposing Ryland’s crimes as Emma and Drew’s relationship continues to fracture, and Christopher closes in on finding his mother.

Dallas is based on the secrets, schemes and betrayals abound within the Texas oil dynasty as the iconic elders of the Ewing family — original series stars Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy and Linda Gray — are joined by the next generation, who give lies and ambition new meaning. In the new series, John Ross (Josh Henderson), JR and Sue Ellen Ewing’s son, is determined to drill for oil on Ewing land. Christopher (Jesse Metcalfe), Bobby’s adopted son, hopes to take the family business away from oil and toward alternative energy sources, with his fiancée (Julie Gonzalo). Complicating matters is the presence of Elena Ramos (Jordana Brewster), John Ross’s girlfriend and Christopher’s ex-fiancée. With an increasingly volatile feud brewing, the stage is set for JR to return to his nefarious ways and rekindle his own long-standing rivalry with younger brother, Bobby.

Dallas season 2, episode 12, “A Call to Arms,” airs Monday, April 8, at 9 p.m. on TNT. Spoiler pictures below:

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
