In the second season, Pamela Rebecca Barnes and John Ross plan to re-acquire half of Christopher's stakes in Ewing Energies. They seem to be trying to satisfy her father's desire to take revenge on Ewings before it is too late, and Ryland's mother, Judith, tries to be more dangerous than before as she proves she is as evil as her son. On the other hand, new evidence emerges during this period indicating important things in the Tommy disappearance case.
