Editing Knots Landing (section)

===Season 4 (1982–83)===
In season four, Valene returns to the cul-de-sac and throws Gary out of the house, leaving him free to move in with Abby. He then inherits millions of dollars from his recently deceased father, [[Jock Ewing]] ([[Jim Davis (actor)|Jim Davis]]). Investing money in several ways, Gary takes an interest in a beautiful younger singer named Ciji Dunne ([[Lisa Hartman Black|Lisa Hartman]]). Valene releases her book, titled ''Capricorn Crude'', a thinly veiled exposé of the Ewings of Dallas. With the charges dropped against Sid Fairgate's killers, Karen seeks the help of federal prosecutor Mack MacKenzie ([[Kevin Dobson]]), whom she starts dating and eventually marries mid-season. Valene's publicist, Chip Roberts ([[Michael Sabatino]]), moves in with Valene and Lilimae, and trouble starts when he dates Diana and Ciji at the same time, later getting Ciji pregnant. Ciji insists on keeping the baby, much to Chip's annoyance and anger. Ciji also became close to Laura which angered Richard, and was also romantically linked to Gary. Ciji's dead body was later discovered on the beach, and there are many suspects, most prominently Gary, Valene, Chip, Richard and Abby. Richard realises his marriage is over and leaves Knots Landing, and Kenny and Ginger move to Nashville where she starts her music career. Karen learns that Chip's real name is Tony Fenice and that he's a fugitive wanted for assault and battery on a woman in Seattle, but is too late to stop Diana leaving town with him. The season ends with Gary sitting in jail, awaiting trial for Ciji's murder.
