Why He's a Cad: Simply put, when JR doesn't get his way, there's hell to pay! Having inherited his father's unfortunate penchant for scheming and manipulating, JR bribed a judge to get custody of his ad Babe's son, remarried Babe under false pretenses and then arranged to kill her! Of course, he's always very truly sorry for his misdeeds.

Why We Can't Get Enough of Him:  Have you seen those piercing blue eyes? When they're not flashing with anger, a glimpse of the troubled young man who was deeply wounded by the presumed death of his mother shows through.  Like Babe, we could easily fall into the trap of thinking that a little tender loving care from us would fix him right up.
