Dallas diehards spent last summer wondering who shot J.R. Now the producers have done it again.

After the main fire was under control, others broke out in quick succession in a second-floor linen closet, a third-floor service elevator lobby and in a ninth-floor fire hose, which had been cut open, stuffed with paper and ignited. Cline has been charged with setting only the eighth-floor fire but is being quizzed about the others...
