09x07 - The Last Hurrah

Post by bunniefuu »

- You're selling The Carlton?
- Yes, Jeff. I need the money.

I'd just feel better if I knew
who the principal buyers were.

Well, I don't care
if they're Bulgarian cannibals

as long as they
come up with cash.

Last time on Dynasty.

I own The Carlton.

I'll nullify the sale.
I won't be kicked out of my own home.

Kicked out or thrown out,
choice is yours.

I really don't care how you go,
but you will go.

I haven't finished with you, cousin.

Not by a long sh*t.

Oh, you're finished, all right.

You just don't know it yet.

How could you do this to me?

You wanted all cash.
I got that too.

I also wanted to continue staying
at the hotel, but thanks to you,

that woman has given me
a month to get out.

There's your suite.

Here's what I think of your charity.

Well, Dex,
I want you out of my office

because this time, we're through.

Are we going to continue
this line of seduction?

No reason not to.

Oh, I'm sorry, Bob. It looks like
I'm gonna belied up after all tonight.

- Aah!
- Get away from her.

- Zorelli.
- You gotta be crazy going up like that.

Fallon ends up in the backseat
of my car and Sammy Jo sees it.

- What am I doing wrong?
- Try cutting down

on your marriage proposals.

Couldn't he tell from other tests?

Do we have to put her
through that all over again?

Blake.
We might be able to use a new drug.

- I'm glad you're back, Mrs. Carrington.
- Oh, thank you, Jeanette. So am I.

This is my cousin, Virginia.

She's gonna be staying
with us for a while.

I've had a wonderful life.

But I realise that I still have
so many things that I...

That I wanna do.

Things that it takes time for.

Sol made a decision.

I decided that I'm not gonna die.

I've just seen his picture.

His picture?

With you in it.

Fallon had it.

How come you're thinking
about dead guys

when there's so many nice
live ones around?

- Like who?
- I'm available.

Really?

Who is he, Mother?

What did your father
tell you about him?

- Who is he?
- Why do you want to know, Fallon?

It's the man
who was m*rder*d at the lake.

What the hell
do you think you're doing?

I'm gonna make you pay
for k*lling Roger Grimes.

- The picture, Fallon.
- What?

I want the picture
you showed to your mother.

- Why?
- Give it to me.

He was your architect,
wasn't he?

- The dead man in the lake.
- It doesn't matter who he was.

I told you to stay out of this thing.
I told you it was none of your business.

But it didn't make difference,
did it?

- Yes, but, Daddy, I...
- You had to sneak around

and come up with that picture
that had nothing to do with you.

You couldn't leave it at that. Oh, no.
You had to go running off to Alexis.

God knows what that woman
is gonna do now.

Daddy, I only did it because I...

I don't care why you did it.

Daddy, Daddy, I'm sorry.
I really am.

But Zorelli thinks you k*lled that man.
And so does mother and I...

You want me put in jail for that,
is that right?

No, of course not.
I just needed ...

You needed to stay out of this
and you didn't.

Now you've opened up a wound
that may never heal.

Oh, Krystle.

- Blake, what was that all about?
- Nothing.

- Nothing at all.
- Nothing?

Fallon said something about Alexis
and that policeman

saying you k*lled somebody?

You know what Alexis is.
You can't believe her.

Now, trust me. I tell you,
there's nothing to be concerned about.

I'm going up to look over some papers.
Are you coming?

- I have to do something here.
- Fine.

Fallon, is everything all right?

Yes, fine. I just-
I'm late for something.

Excuse me.

So every shrimp has his story.

Now, Harold here, he had a wife.
He has a couple of kids.

Maybe a little condo
down in the reefs.

- Goodbye, Harold.
- I can't eat now.

- Delicious.
- I cannot eat.

Watch out.
I'm gonna have Fred right there too.

- Here he comes.
- Don't touch that. Don't.

Now, there's a lesson to be learned.
The hand is quicker than the fork.

Oh, yeah? Yeah?
Let me have him, let me...

- Alexis.
- Hello, Dex.

Joanna Sills. Alexis Colby.

- How do you do?
- Hello.

Excuse me.

- Are you all right?
- Yes, I'm fine. Thank you.

Correct me if I'm wrong,
but weren't the two of you together?

Oh, well, we have a very
complicated relationship.

Oh, I see.

And is she always that indifferent to
your sitting here with another woman?

Joanna, you are a princess.

But she's not always that indifferent.

And you want to find out why.

A very astute princess.

If you're ever in the neighbourhood,

since I'm living at The Carlton too.

You never can tell.

Thank you.

- Who is it?
- It's me.

All right.

- All right, what's going on?
- What are you talking about?

Downstairs.

I was with a woman,
a very attractive woman.

You just walked away.
You didn't even react.

Well, what am I supposed to do?

I don't know.
You could've kicked, screamed,

made a snide remark. Something.

I know we had a fight and
you said I'm out of your life.

Dex, Dex. I'm not worried
about who you're having dinner with.

- Oh, really?
- Do you know what he did?

- Who?
- Do you know what that monster did?

What are you talking about?
What's the matter?

He took a sweet,
wonderful young man.

A man I cared for.

A man who gave me the love
and affection he wasn't capable of

and he destroyed him.

Oh, my God.

Oh, don't tell me.

We're back to Blake again.

Yes. Blake Carrington.

My lawful wedded spouse.

He couldn't give a damn about me,

but he couldn't bear
that anybody else could.

So he sh*t him
in the back of the head

and then he threw his body
into the lake.

- But the body in the lake was...
- Roger Grimes, the man I loved.

And then, Blake banished me
from my house and from my children.

Despite the fact that was over
years ago, you're still upset.

Dex, it doesn't matter when it was.
I just found out that Blake k*lled Roger.

I see.

I also see what the problem is.

It's not Grimes. It's Blake.

You still can't get him
out of your mind.

He'll be out of my mind
when he's behind bars.

How dare he play God.

No. How dare you.

You're still obsessed.

You're still so much
in love with Blake.

Dex, are you crazy? I hate him.

There's a thin line
between hate and love, Alexis.

And in your case, it's invisible.
What an idiot I am.

I let you do it to me all over again.

- Get close...
- Dex. Dex.

- This has nothing to do with you.
- The hell it doesn't.

Your love for Blake
is directly responsible.

I don't love Blake. It's you I love.

You can't love anyone, Alexis.

Your heart is cluttered up
with years of hate.

Oh, God.
I'm so sorry I've hurt you.

I don't know if you are out of your mind
or simply a plain fool.

I mean, we were married too.

Not that that matters to you.

It does matter to me.

And I really do love you.

If you do,

it is the strangest kind of love
I've ever known.

And I'm not sure
that I want any more of it.

What the hell?

You said if I was
in the neighbourhood.

- Mm-hm.
- I'm sure I didn't wake you up.

- You did.
- Oh?

The minute I saw you.

Just a moment.

I hope you're alone.

All right. What is it this time?

Come on.
It's getting past my bedtime.

Oh, I'm so alone.

I'm so alone.

What happened?

I love my father so much.

I would never do anything to hurt him.

What did you do? What happened?

The picture,
I showed it to Mother and...

Hold me, Jeff.

I don't have anybody.

It's gonna be all right.

It'll be all right, sweetheart

Dex is here, Mrs. Colby.

Dex, you're just in time for brunch.

I've ordered salmon
specially flown in from Scotland...

Look, if this is an apology,
you're a little late.

I need you, Dex.

You don't know
what the hell you need.

- Look, I understand your anger.
- No, you can't.

Dex, look,
let's put our personal differences aside

for a minute, can we?

I meant it when I told you
that you're the only person I can trust.

Me? The traitor
that sold your home to Sable Colby?

No, I believe you when you told me
you didn't know she was the buyer.

You have never had one ounce
of the loyalty I've shown you.

Oh, Dex, that's not true.

I love you. You must believe me.

- Sure you do. Sure you do.
- I do.

And I need your help.

That is the part I believe.

You can't desert me now.

Not when I'm going to give you
that piece of land that you wanted.

I mean,
I don't expect you to work for free.

Good.

Because I had no intention
of working for free anymore.

Now, isn't it great when two people
are so deeply attuned? Sign it.

You know, a love like ours
is more important than money

or material possessions.

You can't buy it.

Well, you're doing a good job of trying.
Sign it.

A friend would never fake
what the other can't afford to give.

With all the financial trouble I'm in,
this is an enormous sacrifice for me.

- Aww. Do you really feel that way?
- Yes, I really do.

I gave you that land as a token.
A gesture.

I wanted you to feel
how important you are to me.

Oh, I feel ii.

And while you're brooding over
Blake Carrington,

lam going to be thinking
about my land.

You're not really
gonna take it from me.

Of course.

So I can continue to feel
how important I am to you.

I don't want you to worry
because with this in hand,

lam gonna work
my little tail off for you.

Starting tomorrow.

Have a wonderful afternoon.

I'm sorry. You can't go in there.

Who the hell are you?

Sergeant John Zorelli,
Harmon Springs Police Department.

- Alexis Colby?
- Yes.

- I'd like to ask a couple of questions.
- What about?

About a m*rder, Mrs. Colby.

A very old m*rder.

Good-looking individual.

Everybody says so.

Ever sh**t a g*n, Mrs. Colby?

- Once or twice.
- He was sh*t.

- Back of the head.
- Was he?

Yeah. Angle of the b*llet was up.

Meaning that the assailant
either came from a very odd angle,

say, down on the ground,
or was shorter than he was.

Say, about your height.

- May I?
- Yes.

- What are you implying, sergeant?
- Oh, nothing.

You see, most people
would be shorter than he was.

The victim was a very tall guy.
I hear there were quite a few people

hanging around
the Carrington place back then.

It was under construction,
wasn't it?

If I remember, yes.

Oh, I'm sure you'd remember that.

I heard it went on
for a couple of years.

You must remember some of the guys
that were working there.

Maybe someone who had a personal
relationship with your husband.

Oh, Blake was traveling a lot then

and he never really had
a close personal relationship

with anybody
other than myself and his father.

Take a look at this.

- Tell me if these names ring a bell.
- What is it?

A list of the workers
you and your husband employed.

Oh, it was such a long time ago.

Oh. No.

I always wanted to learn
how to do that.

- Do what?
- Speed read.

There have to be a hundred names
and you went through it like that:

Hell you what. You hang on to this.

It might trigger something later.

It might,
but there were also a lot of transients

that used to hang out
with the workers.

In fact, I was always
very concerned about that.

I can imagine.

Beautiful woman like yourself.

Well, I'm sure I've taken up
enough of your time.

If you should think of anything...

I'll call you right away.

I appreciate it.

Thank you, sergeant.

Blake Carrington, please.

Alexis Colby calling.

Oh, what a pity.

Would you give him a message
from me, please?

Would you tell him
that a police sergeant has been here

asking me a lot of questions.

I think that Mr. Carrington
might be interested in knowing

what we chatted about.

Thank you.

- What are you doing here?
- This is the important meeting

your secretary didn't wanna disturb?

- Where is she? I'm gonna k*ll...
- Ah! She's outside, cowering.

Yeah? Yeah? Well, nobody
gets in here while I'm exercising.

- I've gotta take a shower. I am sweaty.
- Sounds like a good idea.

Dex, what are you here for?

I can't get enough of you.
Mm, mm, mm.

I'm working.

Yeah, but for the wrong person.

Dex.

You should be working for me.

Oh, is that a job offer?

It could be.

Stop. We can't do this here.
The door is not even locked.

I'll fix that.

Joanna, I just heard...

- Well, Dexier, Dexier.
- Ha-ha-ha.

We have acquired
West Springs Micro.

Hello, Sable.

Are you here for athletic training?

Tell me, can he rollover yet?

Only when she pets me, Sable.

Dex was just here helping me clear up
some details on the hotel.

Oh, I see. So this is how business
is conducted in Denver.

I wonder, does Alexis know?

I'm not really concerned
with what Alexis knows.

Really?
I thought you were smitten.

Charm has a way
of giving that impression.

I must have underestimated you.

People usually do, Sable.

- I wonder why I think I'm interrupting.
- Heh.

Now, where were we?

I am gonna in.
I'm gonna take my shower

- and I am going to change my clothes.
- Right.

I have got an awful lot
of work to do today.

Sure.

What are you doing?

I'm gonna help you
take your shower.

No, you're not. You are gonna
get out of here right now.

When someone is ejected,
they're sent to the showers.

No. Out.

Out.

Okay.

I'll take a rain check.

Mm. Heh.

What in God's name
have I done to deserve this?

Wherever you turn,
you find it again and again.

Devious, corrupt, insidious.

Eventually, it'll affect all of us.

Fritz Heath,
the man I trusted for all these years.

How could he turn on me?

You can't trust anybody anymore.

Except family.

Sometimes.

If that's so, Mother, then explain to me
why Blake made Jeff Colby

who is a complete outsider,
my equal at Denver-Carrington?

Your father does very strange things
sometimes, Adam,

but he's going to pay for that.

Now, what do you mean by that?

Mrs. Colby,
Blake Carrington is on his way in.


Speak of the devil.

Hello, Father.

Adam, I'd like to speak
to your mother alone, please.

I'll see you later, darling.

Didn't take you long to get here,
did it?

What is this about you
talking to some detective?

Oh, yes.
A very intelligent young man was here

asking me a lot
of very interesting questions.

- About what?
- About a list of men

that he had
that used to work for you

when the time
that Roger Grimes was k*lled.

He wanted to know
if I recognised any of them.

- And did you?
- Oh, yes.

Roger Grimes' name was right
at the top of the list.

Roger Grimes. Architect.

He even had a picture
of him in death.

And what did you tell that detective?

Oh, nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

Surprised?

But I do have the feeling, Blake,

that he knew a little more
than he was letting on.

I didn't tell him anything yet.

The fact that you m*rder*d Roger
is going to be our dirty little secret.

I did not m*rder Grimes
and you damn well know it.

Really?

Well, I seem to remember a note

that Roger Grimes sent to me

right after you threatened to k*ll him.

I still have it.

Alexis, what is all this about?

Why are you doing this to me?

Maybe because watching you
twist in the wind

the way you've made me twist
all these years

gives me a certain satisfaction.

All right.

But you're gonna pay for this.

You're gonna pay for it dearly.

By the time I'm finished with you,
Blake,

you won't have the energy
to pay for anything.

Why do I get the feeling
we don't belong here?

Does anybody?

I brought you both here
to ask you for your help.

Lately, I've been asking myself
what I've accomplished in my life.

You've accomplished incredible things.

Well, I've dabble with charities
and the rehabilitation centre,

but I've never done anything
that could really make me feel

I made a difference for anybody else.

A project is a good idea,
but you haven't been feeling well lately.

- Are you sure this is the right time?
- You have to make time

for something like this,
or it doesn't happen.

When I saw that lady and her children
living in one of those shacks,

I thought there was something
I could do to help these people.

You can't do anything
to help these people.

- What?
- No one can help these animals.

I can't believe you're saying that.

These people are just like us,
only they've lost their home.

They just need a chance
to get on their feet.

People need a f*ring squad.
Put them out of misery.

- What?
- Hey, sweet ladies.

- What's happening?
- Get lost.

- You looking for some representation?
- Excuse me?

Maybe you just want a little snort.
I've got some fine stuff.

- We could deal on it.
- Get away from me.

- Hey, sweetness...
- Get your filthy hands off me.

She didn't mean that. Virginia.

Yeah? Then how about an apology?

I like apologies.

Virginia!

- Virginia, what are you doing?
- Stop it.

- I hope you die in the gutter!
- Virginia.

Oh, my God.

Let's go.

- Where is she?
- I don't know.

- Come on. Let's go.
- We can't leave her.

Here he comes.

Come back and visit us real soon now,
you hear?

- Where else can we go?
- Don't worry. We'll find her.

Well, we have to find her.

Oh, I just hope she's all right.

Oh, Bill.

Would you hold my usual table
in the banquet room tonight, please?

Thank you.

Always wondered
what happened to Roger Grimes.

Who would've thought he'd have come
floating up for a visit after years?

- He was always unpredictable.
- You'd know that better than I.

But have you any idea
how he ended up in that state?

A b*llet has the strangest habit

of making even the liveliest people
seem dead.

Now would you take your hand
off the button?

I don't have time
for the dead or the dull.

It is a mystery, though, isn't it?

Almost as strange
as what happened to Cecil.

Cecil d*ed of a heart att*ck-.

Yes. In his hospital bed

with you by his side,
pulling off his ring.

Poor Roger. I wonder who k*lled him.
Did you?

Oh. Did I? Oh, Sable.

You do have a fertile imagination.

It's probably too many years
in Los Angeles.

I only ask because I remember
how upset you were

when Roger was proposing
to leave you.

There were so many rows
between the two of you, weren't there?

Women don't k*ll handsome young men
who are madly in love with them.

And if anyone had ever been madly
in love with you, you'd understand that.

Actually, I didn't need to cat around
when I was married.

And I do hope your blatant adultery

won't lead anyone to think
that Blake k*lled him.

That would be hard to prove.

And even harder
on anyone who tried.

- I still can't believe this.
- Blake.

There she is now.

Hope this doesn't come
as too much of a shock.

Blake.

Oh, Blake,
something terrible has happened.

We were downtown
and Virginia is gone.

- We called the police...
- Now, whoa, wait.

Wait. Virginia is upstairs.

- Upstairs?
- She got here about minutes ago.

Oh, thank God.

Now, wait. Dr. Hampton is here.

Dr. Hampton is here in Denver?

Krystle, we have to talk.

Go ahead, Krystle. I'll find Virginia.

Are you all right?

- Wait a minute.
- Don't.

What's going on here?

Oh, I see.

You come here,
hook Krystle on your spoon-fed hope,

pull some theatrics
like you did downtown,

and when everyone is good
and worried about you, you split.

I'm not pulling any theatrics.

I don't know what set you off down
there or what you're afraid of now,

and I really don't care.

All I know is that Krystle is downstairs
talking to her doctor.

When she's through,
when she needs you,

you're planning not to be here.

- The doctor from Los Angeles?
- That's right.


So if you're leaving,
let's get you out of here fast.

Because it's gonna be tougher on her
if she has to see you run away.

In my opinion,

and the opinion of the other
two doctors who reviewed your tests,

your only chance
of survival is surgery.

I'm sorry,
but you have to know this.

There is a possibility
that you won't survive the operation.

And if you do,
as we discussed before,

there's a strong possibility that some
of your faculties will be impaired.

Krystle, do you understand that?

I have to go upstairs.

Darling, please don't go.

I have to see Virginia.

Well,
we have a very vital decision to make.

Krystle,

you're the only one who can decide
whether or not to have the surgery.

I need to see Virginia.
Something happened today.

- Virginia can wait. This can't.
- I'm sorry.

Blake, give her some time.
She needs it.

She knows how dangerous
this operation is.

I'm sure she's just
trying to get her bearings.

I guess she is.

Let's not push her right now.

Let her face it when she can.

You know, I've got your number.

Oh, really?
And what number is that?

No one talks like you did
unless they've been on the streets.

- How would you know?
- I know.

Are you leaving?

No, I'm just straightening out
a few things.

We were worried about you.
You all right?

I'm fine.

Krystle, you saw the doctor?

- Yes.
- What'd he say?

Oh, heh.

He said I was probably going to die.

So Fallon thinks
that Blake m*rder*d him?

She seems convinced
that you think he did it too.

Hmm. Well,
I don't wanna talk about that now.

What about those payments
from Straaser-Silicon

that are due next week?

Every phone call I've made
goes along with what Heath's told us.

- That's exactly why I'm worried.
- According to Heath,

those payments
were due next week.

According to Heath.

We've gotta go and find out
what those companies are up to.

Now, he's got to have been
dealing with a broker.

I want you to go and find him.

Rattle his cage. Check him out.
Bribe him if you have to.

We are dealing
with $ million here, Jeff.

And that is not exactly peanuts
in the scheme of things.

- Who is it?
- Dex.

- What are you doing here?
- Earning my real estate, Alexis. Jeff.

Just got off the phone from Natumbe.

They're moving out
with two of your ships.

Only two? What about the others?

There aren't gonna be any others.

But I had nine ships out there.

Hamilton Stone promised
to get them all back for me.

What can I say? The Natumbe
government released your tankers

for a period of hours.
Hamilton hired crews.

Two were floated out.

The other seven were left behind.

They were then confiscated
on an abandonment charge.

But there must be some mistake.

Obviously.
And I'll bet its name is Hamilton.

Pamela, get me Hamilton Stone.

Well, call his office in Washington
and patch him through to me.

I'll get to the bottom of this.

For my money,
he is the bottom of this.

If he's playing games with me,
I'll have his twitching little head.

I don't get it. I don't see how
they can take her ships. That's piracy.

Natumbe is run by pirates, Jeff.

I'm gonna get those ships back
if I have to sail them myself.

If I have to steer them over

every wimpy little Warthog
whoever crossed me.

Sounds like Alexis Colby
is back in action.

Yes. And with that land
I gave you in your back pocket,

I'd better see some action
from you too.

Don't worry, Alexis.

You'll get your money's worth.
You always have.

Mm...

Blake, what's wrong?

- What's the matter?
- Nothing.

L just love you so much.

You're trembling.

I was just sitting here
thinking about us.

About moments
that we have shared together.

You know, there was no moment
that was more beautiful

than the one seeing you standing there
beside me when we got married.

Oh, Blake.

I just thought,

I'd love to have you standing there
beside me once again.

Are you asking me to remarry you?

We'd just have the family there.

It would bring us
closer together somehow.

So that nothing could...

- Well...
- What?

So that nothing can separate us?

Blake,

nothing can separate us.

It's a beautiful idea.

And I know why you suggested it.

To show me that,
despite everything, you love me.

But I don't need you to remarry me

to show me that
your commitment to me is forever.

Blake, you're in my head.

You are my head.

I don't need any more than that.

Maybe I do.

What do you mean?

Renewing our vows
is not only for you.

It's for me too.

Do you have any idea of the enormity

of the project you're proposing?

Yes.

Now, you're not thinking of trying
to fund this alone, are you?

I mean, even if you were going
to restrict your concerns

to the hungry and homeless of Denver

it would be
a substantial amount of money.

I know that.

And, of course, we'd start here.

But there are hungry and homeless
people all over the country.

And eventually,
I'd like to help as many as possible.

What I don't understand

is why you've chosen to come to me,
instead of Blake.

Well, for several reasons.

Well, you've been involved
in numerous charities.

You've helped a lot of people.

And you're capable of handling
a large-scale project like this.

So is Blake.

Well, he's involved in so many things,
and...

- Well, he...
- Has a lot on his mind?

Yes.

I need someone who can see
this project through to the end.

Particularly, if I'm not involved.

Besides, call it instinct or whatever,

but even though
we don't know each other that well,

I've always felt I could trust you.

I've always felt the same about you.

I just hope you're aware
of the massive effort it would take.

And, you know,
it could be several months

before you start the actual project.

That's why I'm coming to you.

You know I need an operation.

Yes.

Here you are.

Thank you.

Sable,
if anything were to happen to me...

If anything were to happen to you,

I'd carry on alone.

- Then you will help me?
- Yes, of course, I will.

And if anything were to happen to you,

I'd jolly-well rope that husband of yours
into the project as well.

I'm worried about him.

My God,
you have so much on your mind.

Contending with the operation
is bad enough,

but having to face Alexis' lover
years after the event

is more than anybody
could cope with.

- Alexis' lover?
- The body in the lake.

Oh, my God. You didn't know.
I'm so sorry.

So that's who it was.

I suppose Blake
didn't want you to know.

Oh, I can't believe I've done this.

Fallon said something about Alexis
accusing Blake of m*rder.

Look,
if anybody m*rder*d Roger Grimes,

it was probably Alexis herself.

Roger Grimes.

That's the man
Blake had that fight with.

Yes.

But if Blake had wanted to k*ll him,
he would have done it then.

This can't be happening.
Not now.

Krystle,
I care about you and Blake.

And I give you my solemn word,

I will never, never let anyone,

especially Alexis, hurt either of you.

If only I could be sure of that.

You can. Believe me.

Excuse me.

Oh, damn.

Good night.

Boy, I could set my watch by you.

What are you doing here?
You scared me to death.

You never call. You never write.

And, of course,
you never return my phone calls.

And that's your excuse
for lurking around some parking lot?

Yes.
You know, I saw your mother.

She and your father.
Boy, no love lost there.

There must've been some serious
hard feelings when they divorced.

years ago?

Why do you have a thing for
old murders? Why don't you drop it?

I see I'm not gonna get anywhere
with you so let's change the subject.

Ask me out for pizza.

I don't like pizza.

I'm open to all kinds of cuisine.

Spaghetti, manicotti,
a little veal and peppers is nice.

I'm leaving now, Zorelli.

- Okay. Only now you'll never know.
- Know what?

Whether or not
I would've said yes.

- Dinner?
- I'm sorry. I have to meet somebody.

Anybody special?

Everybody is special, Zorelli.

- Is Mrs. Colby here?
- Fallon.

- Sable.
- I'm so glad that you called.

It's high time
we spent some times together.

Robert, I would like some tea.
Fallon?

- Tea will be fine.
- Yes, ma'am.

This isn't exactly a friendship call.

Oh, I'm disappointed.

I really hated meeting up with you
again when you were with Jeff.

He and I never did get along.

But you used to be
my daughter-in-law.

There's no reason
why we shouldn't befriends.

Well, thank you. I agree.

Actually, I came about the picture.

The one you saw?

Oh.

Yes.

I showed it to my mother,
like you said.

And she told me
my father k*lled him.

- Yes.
- You don't seem very surprised.

Why?
Do you think he k*lled him too?

Oh. What I think isn't important.

Sable, I can't get it out of my mind.
Please.

Did my father m*rder him?

He very well might have.

But, look, he is your father.

Now, if I were you,
I would put a cap on your curiosity.

It could blow up in your face.

May I come in?

Of course.

Why are you doing this now?

Doing what?
Would you like a glass of champagne?

Accusing Blake of something
you know he didn't do.

He's not a m*rder*r.

Blake is many things, Krystle,
you don't know anything about.

I thought these att*cks on him
were finished.

Haven't you done enough?

You already tried to send him
to prison once.

For k*lling Steven's lover.

It was an accident and you know it.

Why won't you leave us alone?

Krystle, please don't upset yourself.

Not in your condition.
This has nothing to do with you.

Of course, it does.

It has to do with my family
and my husband.

For God's sake, Alexis,
I may not be around much longer.

And if I'm not,
and Blake goes to prison,

what will happen to Kristina?

Oh, I'd never let anything happen
to your little girl.

If worse came to worst,

- I'd take care of her myself.
- You'd what?

You know how much I adore children.

Alexis, you are the last person
I'd want Kristina to be with.

Well, I can understand that.

Alexis, I promise you,
you will never get near my daughter,

and you will never
send Blake to prison.

Really?
And how do you propose to stop me?

Since, as you indicated,

you're suffering
from a rather serious disorder.

That's right.

And you know
what that serious disorder

can make me do?

- Krystle.
- Anything I want.

My God. Are you crazy?

No, but everybody thinks I am.

Well, I can understand why.

You see, I have these blackouts.

And when I black out,
I do strange things.

Things I don't even remember doing.

My God. You are mad.

I'm not sure. That's just the point.

The police even thought
I m*rder*d somebody.

Oh, for God's sake, Krystle.

I could k*ll you, Alexis.

And no jury in the world
would even convict me.

So I warn you,
if you ever try to harm Blake,

you'll have to answer to me.

Only you're not going
to be around that long.
