“Dallas” villain Juan Pablo Di Pace dished on drug cartels, duplicity and, well, threesomes in the TheWrap’s latest episode of “Drinking With the Stars.”

TheWrap asked the actor what his take was on the season finale’s racy threesome between Josh Henderson (John Ross), Julie Gonzalo (Pamela) and Emma Bell (Emma), and what to expect from next.
“It got pretty icky,” said Di Pace. “It got a bit messy, but I think in Nicolas’ mind everything is so controlled and contrived, and he knows exactly what he wants and he knows how to mess around with people. It was all intentional. And he’s got a big plan apart from what we see.”
Di Pace admitted that there’s more than one side to his corrupt “Dallas,” but only one person sees a softer side of him — Jordana Brewster‘s Elena.
“He’s got different personalities. He chooses to be a certain way with Elena, or Patrick’s character Bobby, or Jesse’s character Christopher. It’s all about what suits him,” he confessed. “What he can grab from each situation? With Elena, it’s love. That’s real love. I think we get the most realistic Nicolas out of Elena, but there’s still an agenda there.

And what about Nicolas teaming with organized crime? “We know Nicolas is working for the drug cartel,” Di Pace said. “He needs to help the drug cartel get rid of the Ewings, to get their money and company.”
