This face-off not only exposes the simmering tension between James and J.R. but also casts a long shadow over the future of Ewing Oil, marking a significant pivot in the family’s dynamics.
As J.R. grapples with James’s ultimatum, Clayton’s arrival sparks a ray of hope. The news of Clayton granting J.R. the voting rights to the WestStar stock seems like a potential victory for J.R.
