  • Betting that this well was going to make him a very rich man, Cliff asked Sue Ellen to marry him. Her loving request to for a little time to think things over led him to believe that there was a very good chance that she'd accept.
    Cliff was completely flabbergasted when JR walked into his office one day, grinning from ear to ear, and announced that he had tricked Cliff into buying a dry hole. When Cliff cited the geological reports, JR said they were fake. Cliff was stunned and redoubled drilling efforts for a short while, but then finally accepted the fact that he had been swindled out of $4,500,000.
    He was now frantic because the loss of $4,000,000 could put Wentworth Tool & Die out of business and, not knowing where to turn, he went to Sue Ellen to borrow the money to pay back the company. She blew up and threw him out, along with his proposal of marriage. Then JR showed up and offered to buy Barnes-Wentworth #1 back from Cliff for $4,000,000, which he could in turn pay back to Wentworth Tool & Die. Cliff had no choice but to sell the field, although it was worth much, much more. He had lost all of his own money and his mother's respect. Regardless of the fact that he paid back the money he had borrowed from Wentworth Tool & Die, Rebecca fired him.

    What matters is that in the very end Cliff defeated J.R., and even took Ewing Oil. The good finally defeated the evil. Oh, by the way, sometimes the good needs to use evil methods in order to accomplish its goals. Even "Saint Bobby" knew that. Anyway, Hagman was a hell of actor. R.I.P.

      Cliff was far from good. He started out as a public employee who used and abused his position to witch hunt the Ewings and Ewing Oil because of a bunch of garbage his daddy told him that turned out to be nothing but bullcrap. Along the way he had an affair with a married woman who happened to be the wife of the focus of all his resentment and revenge for no better reason than to try and hurt his sworn enemies. He was handed the leadership of Wentworth T&D by his long lost mother (who btw completely ignored the birthright of the daughter she raised) and he promptly embezzled $4 million dollars from the company. The only reason he even had that piece of Ewing Oil property to replace that money was because he colluded with the corrupt Vaughn Leeland and others to take advantage of JR during a messy custody battle he was having with Sue Ellen. JR was dirty, JR was cruel, to say that JR was corrupt weakens the word, and JR was nasty but to claim that Cliff was good is completely laughable. And JR was not completely evil either, he did exhibit the capacity to show genuine love and affection for his parents and for his son and even in his own twisted way for Sue Ellen. He was by no means an ideal husband or man but then Sue Ellen was anything but an ideal wife and mother and Barns was just vile. I never thought much of Cliff but after he treated Afton like complete dirt when she was there for him no matter what I couldn't stand him. I'm glad that the new series for all it's flaws finally corrected the biggest flaw from the end of Dallas. Having JR lose Ewing Oil to Cliff Barnes was about the dumbest things I've ever seen written into a TV show. Ewing Oil wasn't just a name or a company it was a legacy from Jock, and no other company would have ever tempted JR to throw that away no matter how large it was. And Barnes would never have been smart enough to take it from him anyway.

      Why would Ewing Oil be owned by someone whose name wasn't even Ewing?

    Although Cliff usually got the worst end of it in his dealings with J.R., he himself was not a very nice person either. He could be manipulative and downright nasty. For example: in a later story he ruthlessly blackmailed JR's secretary Sly into becoming a "mole" for him inside Ewing Oil. He also cynically married Jamie Ewing in an attempt to undermine JR.
