Afton Cooper
- Mitch Cooper: Oh, this is Lucy. Lucy this is my mother, and my sister Afton.
- Lucy Ewing: Hi, Mrs. Cooper. So very nice to meet you. Hi, Afton.
- Afton Cooper: Hi.
- Arliss Cooper: It's just such a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Mitch wrote so much about you.
- Mitch Cooper: Oh, nothing good.
- Arliss Cooper: Oh, Mitchell, now you stop that.
- [to Lucy:]
- Arliss Cooper: He said nothing but good things about you. Looks like he didn't say enough.
- Lucy Ewing: Well, thank you.
- Mitch Cooper: Oh, come on. She's spoiled enough already.
- Lucy Ewing: [playfully slaps his shoulder] No, I'm not!
- Afton Cooper: [to Lucy] You really have all that money?
- Arliss Cooper: Afton!
- Afton Cooper: [shrugs] Just wanted to know.
- Lucy Ewing: Well, uh, I don't. But my family sure does.
- Arliss Cooper: Now, Lucy, no matter what my son says, there is absolutely no reason to feel sorry about having a lot of money.
- Mitch Cooper: Come on, there's got to be a hundred other things we can talk about besides money.
- Afton Cooper: [to Lucy] Why don't you tell us about the wedding? I bet thats going to be something.
- Mitch Cooper: Oh, uh, come on. Let's get the bags, or I'm gonna be late for school, all right?
- Lucy Ewing: Why don't I drop you off, and then we'll go on to your apartment, okay?
- Afton Cooper: All right. Let's go.
- Arliss Cooper: Good.
- Afton Cooper: [to Lucy] You know, ever since Mitch wrote us about the wedding, I've been reading up on your family.
- Lucy Ewing: Oh, don't blame them on me. By the way, I'd really like it if you could be one of my bridesmaids.
- Afton Cooper: [enthusiastically] Oh, you would?
- Lucy Ewing: Yeah! Don't you think it would be fun?
- J.R. Ewing: [very attentive to Mitch's sister] Can I get you a cold drink or something?
- Afton Cooper: No, thank you.
- J.R. Ewing: I must say, beauty certainly runs in your family.
- [chuckles]
- J.R. Ewing: I understand they raise these huge magnolias down in Mississippi. Is that right?
- Afton Cooper: Yeah, that's true.
- J.R. Ewing: And is it true what they say about the alligators down in Mississippi?
- Afton Cooper: Yeah.
- J.R. Ewing: It is?
- Afton Cooper: Yeah, it is true.
- [he chuckles, while Sue Ellen looks on knowing full well where all this is leading]
- Afton Cooper: They're all along the sides of the road.
- J.R. Ewing: Yeah, you're kidding. Are they really?
- Afton Cooper: And the Spanish moss is hanging... from the trees. It's pretty scary.
- J.R. Ewing: [laughing] And they sing songs like "doo-dah, doo-dah day"?
- Afton Cooper: [walking into bedroom 'accidentally'] Oh, my goodness. Excuse me, I was looking for Lucy's room. I left my sweater there.
- J.R. Ewing: Getting chilly, is it?
- [knows It's not]
- Afton Cooper: Some.
- J.R. Ewing: How you liking Dallas?
- Afton Cooper: Yeah, I love it.
- J.R. Ewing: And Southfork?
- Afton Cooper: It's beautiful. I've never seen anything like it. You sure are lucky to live here.
- J.R. Ewing: Yeah, I guess so. Well, your being here adds more beauty to it.
- Afton Cooper: Well, it sure puts Mississippi to shame. I almost hate to go back.
- J.R. Ewing: Well, since you're almost a member of the family...
- [closes bedroom door]
- J.R. Ewing: Well, it seems a shame to lose you so soon.
- Afton Cooper: Wouldn't take much to talk me out of it.
- J.R. Ewing: Talking's the second best thing I do.
- Afton Cooper: [soft snicker] I guess talking is about... the fifth best thing I do.
- J.R. Ewing: [after they kissed passionately] Well, that leaves four things.
- Afton Cooper: I don't believe we'd best find out what they are today.
- J.R. Ewing: But soon?
- [she smiles]
