And what if Katherine had hitted both Bobby and Pamela...

And what if Katherine had hitted both Bobby and Pamela with her car back in the 1985 Cliffhanger????Imagine the scene. Two rooms, in one room Bobby Ewing, and next to him. Miss Ellie,JR,Jenna and Ray...in another room Pamela with Clayton,Donna,Cliff,Jack and Jamie....After a speech from both of them, everyone awaits in the waitting room when a sudden beeeeeeep announces the death of one of them??? Who died?

why would clayton be with pamela?

That's a pretty good one. But we would all know who dies through the media.

I wouldn't even want to think about both Bobby and Pamela getting hit by Katherine's car. Imagine poor little Christopher if both of his parents would have died that morning, that would have been horrible for him. I am just glad that little Christopher didn't witness the accident that "killed" his daddy. I was just so happy that they had reunited that the accident was just so tragic. At least little Christopher had a wonderful last memory of his daddy telling him he loved him and he told his daddy that he loved him too. I cried when Pam told Christopher that his daddy had gone faraway and that he was never coming back. Enough said.

If Bobby and Pam had both been hit and died, who'd look after poor little Christopher? Well Sue Ellen could of course since she's his natural aunt...but I wonder if she would have eventually told Patricia about Christopher, and then Patricia would want to take over raising him....dear God! We all know what a "wonderful" job she did with Sue Ellen and Kristin. (Though Sue Ellen at least changed for the better).

If both had died, so would have DALLAS.

Patricia Shephard was the perfect mother.... LOL j/k

[Jock/Ellie]

If both had died, so would have DALLAS.

My exact thoughts.

That would have been a very good cliffhanger - but the Media always breaks the cliffhanger results way before it actually airs. Can you imagine the power a soap would have if viewers truly didn't know what was going to happen day to day (for daytime) or week to week (for primetime)?
