09x15 - The Son Also Rises

Post by bunniefuu »

What do you mean?

Why are you so concerned
because some two-bit cop

- is nosing around your past?
- Adam!

The minute the body was
mentioned, you looked guilty as hell.

NARRATOR: Last time on Dynasty:

Please, this is crazy. Don't do it.

Well, you forced me to.

Put the g*n down there.

Now, talk to me.

Tell me how we are going
to bring my cousin to the ground.

So you wanna be involved?

Yes, I do.

Okay, Jimbo, gift wrap the lady
and put her next door.

Go ahead, tie her up.

Take your hands off me.

Are you disappointed it's not
from your Romeo?

Don't be ridiculous
and stop getting jealous.

Me, jealous?

You come over, make dinner,
I go into the shower,

I come out, you're gone.

I can't reach you anywhere. I can't call
you because of your old man.

You owe me
some kind of explanation.

I should never have been
at your place.

- And why not?
- I don't wanna see you anymore.

- You don't wanna see me anymore?
- I can't.

You want me away from Dex
so you can have him all to yourself.

You're out your mind
and you are out of line.

All right.
All right, I'll say goodbye to Dex.

L just want you to know
it's my decision, not yours.

I'm in Paris on business.

What business? With whom?

Heh. I don't think
that's any concern of yours.

It doesn't concern me?
Hey, I've got my own company.

You'd never know that

because the business
I've been taking care of is yours.

Urn, do you think you could get
to the point of this conversation?

Because I have to go out
to dinner now.

I bet you want me to believe
that you are dining alone.

You know, you've got two hours
before that plane leaves.

I hate to see you go.

Incredible. Absolutely incredible.

- If you're leaving, I'll walk you out...
- Look at this.

Look at the mess
that these refinery projections are in.

Now, who's in charge of that?

- Adam was in charge, but he hasn't...
- Look at this file.

The projections are there,
the production stats are here.

How are you to make heads
or tails out of it?

Blake, we've had a lot going on lately
and...

There is no excuse for this.

I put three people in charge
of this company.

And what have we got? Chaos.

Things are running smoother
than you're giving us credit for.

And isn't Fallon supposed
to assemble

- all the distribution figures?
- Yes.

Well, I can't find them.
Where are they?

I've looked through those files.

That's because they've been placed
in inventory.

Inventory?

And what is this doing
in the inventory section?

See what I mean?
This month's figures aren't in here.

- Fallon has been trying...
- I know where Fallon has been.

Anywhere but here.

I built this company on long hours
and hard work.

And damn it, my children
may be tearing my life apart,

but I'm not gonna let them do it
to Denver-Carrington.

Come on, Blake, we've both had
a long day today. I'll take care of this.

I'm sorry, Jeff.

- This has nothing to do with you.
- I know.

If it weren't for you,

I don't think anything
would be done right around here.

Tell you what, can I buy you a drink?

I'm sick and tired of seeing...

Seeing it all fall apart.

My family. Everything.

It's time to do what has to be done.

I want Adam out of the house.

I want Fallon back.

And as for Alexis,
I'll take care of her.

Who's there?

A neighbour.

A neighbour?

I am staying in Mother's suite
while she's away.

And I was hoping
that I could borrow a cup of sugar.

A cup of sugar?

You know, you're standing over
a hot stove

and you suddenly discover

that you need something
you don't have.

Heh. And you thought
that I might have what you need.

Well, you get an urge for something
sweet and spicy now and then.

Why do I have the feeling you're
not talking about bakery products?

Okay, forget the sugar.
How about a Scotch?

Why not? How do you take it?

- Any way you give it.
- Ha, ha.

Do you realise
this is the second time

you have insinuated yourself
into my life?

I'm intrigued by gorgeous women.

No, no, no.

You're intrigued by the fact that
I work for your mother's arch nemesis.

Who's there? SABLE: Sable.

Sable.
Please, she can't find you here.

You mean you're not allowed
to have company?

I'll be right there. Uh...

Into my bedroom, please.

- Are you ashamed of me?
- Just go.

If you're busy, Joanna...

Uh, no, um, just a minute.

I should just slip into something
more comfortable, like your bed.

Would you please get in there?

- Have I caught you at a bad time?
- No. No.

- Is something wrong?
- Oh.

You make it sound
as if I only call on you

when we have some sort of crisis.

Of course, you are very good
at handling tight situations.

Joanna,

I've been very unjust to you recently.

Oh? SABLE: I think so.

And I think you should know
that I do appreciate your work,

especially
the marvelously inventive ways

you've helped me
att*ck Alexis Colby.

You've thought up ideas
that would never have occurred to me.

Sable, those were
all your ideas, not mine.

Nonsense.

Without you,
I could never have bought this hotel

from under Alexis' nose.

Of course I helped, but, uh...

And I could never have bought
those tankers of hers

at such a piddling price.

I had nothing to do with the tankers,
that was Hamilton Stone.

Oh, well, of course he did
some of the legwork,

but you, you were the one
that really made it happen.

Sable, I really appreciate this, uh,
show of confidence,

but frankly, I am really very tired.

Ah! Good Lord,
don't tell me that you have a guest.

Yes.

Oh, and I just barged in.

Lam so sorry. I had no idea.

Well, I will leave you to your guest.
I just-Well...

I know there has been some strain
between us recently,

but your actions
have not gone unnoticed.

Good night, Sable.

Good night, Joanna.

Yeah.

I could pretend
I didn't hear any of that.

- What she said was...
- Was that you're the brains

behind Mother's problems
with the hotel, the tankers.

That you have
an exceptionally devious mind.

She exaggerated
about what I did to Colbyco.

Oh, I hope not.

I beg your pardon?

I'll be going over to Colbyco
when Mother gets back.

You should consider joining us.

In what position?

- Directly under me.
- Cute.

I didn't mean it like that.

Let's talk again when you're ready
to make me a serious offer.

Does this mean
I don't get my cup of sugar?

What do you mean Fallon's not there?
Where the hell is she?

All right. All right, never mind.

Oh, it's you.

Who were you expecting
with this mess?

Look at this place.

What are you doing here, Rudy?

You call in sick. You call in late.
You're not doing your work.

Oh, right, yeah. My work.

Your work
is what they give you to do

till you get your regular job back.

When? Two weeks after the turn
of the century?

I don't know.

I got a feeling
the captain's softening.

Softening, huh?
What's he been using, hand lotion?

You know what the problem is?
You.

Stop challenging the guy
all the time.

What are you doing here?

I want the photo.

- What photo?
- The photo.

The girl holding the picture
of the dead guy.

We spent all that money
to get it blown up.

- Where is it?
- That's it.

That's what happened. She comes
over hereto make me dinner.

Everything's going great.
I go in to take a shower.

I come out, she's gone.
No word, no note, no nothing.

Yeah, maybe if you cleaned
the place up a little.

Why'd she run away?

I track her down,
she doesn't wanna see me.

Look, I'm on pins and needles,
but I gotta get to work,

so just give me the damn photo
and I'll be on my way.

That's what I'm telling you.
She must have seen it.

- Seen what?
- The photo.

So it's here. Let me have it.

- I don't have it.
- Yes, you do.

You just said she saw it here.
Give it to me.

We'll put it in the file and bury
the damn thing where it belongs,

back years ago.

I'm telling you, I don't have it.

I must have misplaced it.

Zorelli...

This picture here, man,
this one right here,

I don't have it, okay? It's gone.

Okay, I was wrong.

I thought that that picture was here,

but it must be
at the bottom of that hole.

What hole is that, Rudy?

The one you're digging for yourself.

The one they're gonna bury you in.

I don't care how much
he's threatened the security people.

Those were my orders.

If he has any problem with that...

There are g*ons in my office,
standing guard over my files.

That's right. On my orders.

They told me...!

They told me I needed permission
to open them.

I'm a director of this company.

- Not anymore.
- What?

And I've taken measures
to limit your access

to the more sensitive files.

I don't believe this.
You knock me down a flight of stairs.

You nearly k*ll me.
Now you're throwing me out.

You've thrown yourself out
by your actions.

- Just like that?
- Just like that.

Well, okay, Father.

But you're not going to like having me
as an enemy.

It couldn't be any worse
than having you as a son.

Well, Jeff.

Out with the old, in with the new.

I sure hope I won't miss you.

- Miss me?
- When I take aim.

When you asked me to go
for a ride today,

I wondered where you'd take me.

I didn't have a particular route
mapped out.

But you brought me here.

To this lake.

Yeah.

The lake my diver was searching in.

Uh-huh.

Why?

Am I about to be cross-examined?

Well, to tell you the truth,
I'm not really sure why we're here.

Curious, though, isn't it?

Why, it's so pretty here.

This perfect grass, this perfect sky,

perfect little bridge,
calm, still water, and yet...

It's a bit like you and me.

You and me?

Yes.

Supposing you were a stranger

and you were standing
on that mountain,

spying at us through binoculars,
what would you see?

You'd see a man and a woman,
probably lovers,

strolling on a perfect day,

by this perfect lake,
and yet beneath that lake,

as indeed beneath both our lives,

flow some very destructive currents.

I guess that's true enough.

When is she coming back?
Do you know?

Well, I haven't heard from her
for a few days.

And the last time we talked,
we had a pretty bad fight.

I'm sorry.

You know,
despite what happened afterwords,

I did mean what I said last night.

I have a great respect for love.

Even for the love of someone
like Alexis Colby,

so I do know
what you're going through.

- Ha, ha.
- Oh.

You know, when I was a kid,

I'd take a flat one like this,

I'd skip it across the water
six or seven times.

Yeah, well,

life does go on, you know?

Alexis and I have

been together a long time.

She's not in the office?
Doesn't she work here?

- Yes, but...
- Where the hell is she?

- Don't come in here...
- I wanna know where she is.

- I'm calling the police.
- I am the police.

- Zorelli, what do you want here?
- Have you got a warrant?

I'm not here on police business.

You don't have a warrant.

- I'm here on personal business.
- Call security.

I just wanna talk to your daughter.
Is that a crime?

Yes.
The way you've used my daughter.

- That's more than a crime.
- Now, wait a second.

You used her to spy on me.

That's not true and you know it.

- Throw this man out.
- I'm a police officer.

- That's all right, I'll throw him out.
- Take it easy.

Don't do something you'll regret.

Why don't you step out
from behind that badge?

You know, Mr. Carrington,
I know what you're thinking.

I really don't hate you.

Not at all.

What do you suppose is gonna happen
when Alexis comes back from Europe?

Because of you and me?

I was thinking of the m*rder case.

Well, I'm hoping she'll back off.

Why should she?

Because I asked her to.

Dex,

let's play a little game of "what if."

What if?

Mm. What if.

Now, we know that you and Blake
have a deep, dark secret

that you want to remain hidden.

What if Alexis wants
to get at that secret?

What if she has no idea it exists?

Okay, what if she doesn't?

But what if, in her desire
to avenge her lover's death,

- she gets others to dig it up?
- All right.

And what if I have a way
to stop her?

With a... Let's call it a hammer.

No, let's call it a very large hatchet.

To do what with?

To hold it over her scraggy neck,

- chop it off if she doesn't back down.
- I don't know if I wanna hear anymore.

I don't think you realise
how much I care for Alexis.

I do.

I wouldn't wanna see her hurt
in any way.

I understand that,
but what if she forces the situation?

What if she pushes for an inquest?
Hmm?

Wouldn't you want to do everything
in your power to stop her?

I guess I'd have to.

So where would you stand?

With Alexis, under the hatchet?

Or with me and Blake?

I don't think Blake is sure you two
are on the same side.

He will be. He has to.

Sable, this hatchet, uh, of yours,

this wouldn't have anything to do
with Fritz Heath?

Why on earth would you think that?

Because of the g*n you left
at my place was registered to him.

And you had it checked out.

I'm concerned about you.

Is that the hatchet? Fritz Heath?

And whatever wonderful information
he gave you about Colbyco?

What if it were?

And what if I could use the information
to stop Alexis from attacking Blake?

Would you support me?

Tough decision for you, isn't it?

Yeah.

Yeah.

- New Arabian, huh?
- Yeah. Sired by Vision.

He was born a couple weeks ago.

It's Tanner.

- Tanner?
- Yeah, the guy from the hospital.

He called earlier,
said he had something to bring over.

What's he got on his back?

Oh, Tanner, what is this?

This is a new friend.

He wants to replace the little bunny
that I disemboweled at the hospital.

Oh. Oh, he's adorable.

Can you shake hands
with Sammy Jo?

Hello.

Oh, hey, come on,
stand up like a man here.

- He's kind of shy.
- Mm.

He told me that he's not used to
shaking hands with such a pretty lady.

Ha, ha. What's his name?

How about Dinner?

Well, we figured since
he is gonna be living here,

you ought to give him
a name yourself.

- Ah.
- Oh.

Come on, you stand up.
What's the matter with you?

We're gonna need
to give him a little backbone.

You hear that?

Oh, I don't think
you have officially met.

Jeff and Fallon,
this is Tanner McBride.

- Good to meet you.
- Hi, Tanner.

We did sort of meet at the hospital,
during the bunny slaughter?

I remember that, yeah.

Well, I've gotta be going.

You're not gonna stay?
Tanner said he's gonna cook dinner.

Oh, he cooks too. Ah.

Sorry, but I'm not too keen
on rabbit stew.

I'll call you tomorrow.

Okay. Come on, Tanner. I wanna
show you the new Arabian colt.

Yeah, well...

- I have this...
- What are you talking about?

Can you believe that guy?

- Sammy Jo seems to.
- Oh, come on.

Look at her face.

Does he really think she's buying that?

Her face, Jeff.

Look at it, the way it's beaming,
the way her eyes are glistening.

You better watch it,
he's gonna steal her away.

Well, maybe it's the best thing
for her.

What am I hearing?

You're not jealous?

Of Sammy Jo?

No, of Godzilla.

Of course Sammy Jo.

You wanna know something? I see
Sammy Jo and him together, I care.

I really do but...

But when I see you and Zorelli
together,

that hurts.

Oh. It's been a lovely day.

It has.

Let's have some champagne.

Now, it's Angela's night off,
but I think...

Oh, yes, look.

She's left something.

Thank you,
but I think I'll head back to my place.

Oh, not so abruptly.

Come on, open that bottle.

I'll get the glasses.

Dex,

if we're gonna end this romance,
let's do it in a lovely way.

That's what this hesitation
is all about.

Alexis is coming back.

I don't know.

I wish I could say
that it was wonderful,

your mourning
your relationship with Alexis,

but I'd be lying.

You know,

I really didn't mean
to start something.

Neither did I.

But you know, Dex, I'm really glad
that we've had this time together.

At least I now know
that you're more than a rampant libido.

Now, you should eat something.

Oh. Do you remember
when we first danced in Los Angeles?

When Alexis was dallying
with Hamilton Stone.

The tango.

You think I don't see through this?

See through what?

What you're doing right now.

This time I think I am being used.

Only a little bit.

Mr. Carrington, Mr. Colby's here.

Oh, good. Come on in, Jeff.

- Hello, Blake.
- Hi.

I haven't been able to reach Alexis.

She's still somewhere in Europe.

What's she doing over there,
anyway?

- Well, it's either business or a man.
- Hmm.

Heh. I hope it's gotten her mind off you
and that m*rder.

I wish I could believe that.

Want a cup of coffee?

Oh, no, thank you.

You know what this is?

A baby rattle.

It was Adam's.

My own son,
my own flesh and blood.

Who would've thought
he'd have turned out-J?

Blake, Adam's had a rough life.

He was kidnapped
when he was a child. He...

You think
that it didn't tear me apart?

Not being able to raise my own son?

Not knowing
what kind of a monster had taken him?

Not knowing
whether he was still alive?

No, that's... There's not much love lost
between Adam and me,

but I don't know, in a way,
I feel sorry for him.

Even after all the things
that he's done to you?

Well,

in a strange way,
we're almost brothers.

Hmm?

I mean, you've always been closer
to me than my own father.

Thank you, Jeff.

For what?

Thank you for being here.

Thank you for being more a son
than my own flesh and blood.

Caviar from the Black Sea.

Not bad.

But I had in mind a different
kind of dessert.

You're boasting.

Am I'.]

What? Heath?

I don't know.

I was just about to give up.

Monica.

- I wasn't expecting you.
- Oh. Ha, ha.

Oh.

Did I, uh, interrupt something,
Mother?

Or is it the maid's day off?

Um, Dex Dexier,
this is my daughter, Monica.

Not a bad looking towel, Mother.

Not bad at all.

Look at this.
Flowers and candles. Mm.

Wait until you taste this.

Sit down. Make yourselves at home.

Lam at home, Tanner.

Does it have a name?

This is called hobo stew.

Taste it.

Oh, thank you.

Thanks.

- Mm.
- Not bad.

It tastes like beef bourguignon.

- My kids taught me how to make this.
- What's in it?

Oh, you know, a little bit of this,
a little bit of that.

- It's delicious.
- I'm glad you like it.

Usually, we don't have much control
over the taste.

We just throw in whatever we can get
our hands on and cross our fingers.

It must be awful for those kids,
living on the streets like that.

I respect you for what you're doing.

Oh, I'm just trying to give them some
kind of home, some kind of hope.

Oh, be careful of the eggshells.
I might have missed a couple.

- Eggshells?
- I try to wash them all out,

but they're so small.

The worst is coffee grounds.

They soak into everything,

but they do give the stew
a nice flavour, so...

Coffee grounds?

Heh. What is this?

Are you trying to tell us
that this is made from garbage?

Oh, just a few things.

I'm afraid the pickings here were...
They're kind of slim.

He's kidding.
Tell me that he's kidding.

But what I did find was great, though.
You have class-A garbage.

You know,
I barely had to wash the lemon rinds.

Most of my kids have never
even seen garbage this good.

- Uh...
- It's good, though, isn't it?

Oh, what's the matter?
You didn't find a nail or something?

Ha-ha-ha. Got you.

Tanner, I need for you to tell us
that the ingredients in this stew

did not come from my garbage can.

They didn't. I was only joking.

Really. I took everything out
of the refrigerator.

I just wanted to show you

what a lot of the people
that I'm working with...

Oh. I believe you.

Then go on and eat it. It's good.

Heh. It smells a little gamey.

I'm afraid ...

Has anybody seen the dog?

Oh.



I forgot to call my kids
and let them know


that I wouldn't be back for dinner.
Could I?

Oh, you can use the phone
in the kitchen.

Just don't add it to the stew.

You'd better watch out.

Well, I know what you're thinking
and you're wrong.

- Well, then you'd better see a doctor.
- About what?

Shortness of breath.

Flushed cheeks.

Serious symptoms, Sammy Jo.

- So, what did he do? Go to sleep?
- Now, you just behave yourself.

Oh, Dex.

Um, Dex Dexier,
this is my daughter, Monica.

You mentioned that already, Mother.

Oh, did I?

She's a little flustered.

Yeah, well, I just spent
the last minutes deciding

whether or not to leave
by the window.

Monica has tried to make up
for her perfectly awful timing

by making us some tea.

Well, thank you, but if you don't mind,
I think I'll pass.

Oh, no, no, no, please.
Don't be embarrassed.

- I'm used to Mother's escapades.
- What?

I really should have served
the two of you in bed,

the way I used to?

You have never. She has never ever.

Remember the guy?
He drank so much beer,

he threatened to hook up an IV.
Ha-ha-ha.

She's joking.
You do know that she's joking.

I'm certainly in no position
to comment.

Would it be all right
if I called you Uncle Dex?

- You are outrageous.
- Ha-ha-ha.

I think I'd better leave
the two of you alone.

Lam kidding, please.

Mother is so straight,

she once thought the IUD
was a federal agency. Ha-ha-ha.

If you weren't so big,

I would put you over my knee
and spank you.

No. No, seriously,
if any of this were true,

I wouldn't be joking about it.

Well, you two have a lot
to catch up on.

- And you probably need a drink.
- Uh-huh.

- I'll call you. Good night.
- Mm. Good night.

Good night, Uncle Dex.

Heh. Good night.

Oh.

Dex Dexier.

Now, this wouldn't be
the same Dex Dexier

that was married to Alexis, would it?

What a wonderful way
to get back at her.

Oh, no.

Getting back at Alexis
has nothing to do with it.

Well, not very much to do with it.

Hello.

Don't.

How can you miss me?

You're dead.

No, I don't...

I don't think of you
when I'm with him.

No.

No. No.

Fallon.

Oh, God. Oh, God.

What?

He was right here.

Who?
Who were you dreaming about?

Roger Grimes.

That dead guy?

All the time.
I dream about him all the time.

I thought he'd disappeared.

- But he's back.
- Fallon.

He said he came back

because I've been staying away
from Zorelli.

He talks to you about Zorelli?

He said Zorelli betrayed me.

And he's right. He did betray me.

He used me.

I gotta get out of this bed.

Let's get some milk.

A few weeks ago,
I went to the police station.

I had a photo with me of Daddy
and Roger Grimes,

together.

And what happened?

Well, then the other day,
I was at Zorelli's place

and I found another photo

of me holding that picture.

Oh, my God.

Daddy kept warning me
I was betraying him.

And I kept telling him I knew
what I was doing.

Did you tell him about this?

I tried.

Well, keep trying.

- I can't.
- Oh.

You know, you really are something.

You've got a live guy
you can't stay with

and a dead guy
you can't stay away from.

It's okay.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about you moving
here and coming to work with me.

That's ridiculous, Mother.

Why?

I can't think of anyone
I'd sooner work with.

Yeah, well, what about me?

I'm just supposed
to put my life on hold?

Well, from what you've been
telling me, it is on hold.

I need to come to Denver
for compliments like that?

Well, what have you got going
for yourself in Los Angeles?

I have my work.

And how much do we like this work?

Ten, minutes ago,
you were telling me you hated it.

You said you were under-appreciated,
underpaid,

and that your colleague
followed you around

with his tongue hanging out
day after day.

He's not that bad.

Oh, did I make it up?

But move to Denver?

I mean, leave home?

Home?

Well, it's not what it used to be, is it?

I'm not there.

Miles is not there.

Bliss is not there.

No.

So whom do you have?

Well, there's Daddy.

Really?

How many times in the last year
have you seen Jason?

I haven't.

Well, heh, it seems you're winning
my argument for me.

Well, at least I have one sibling here
in Denver.

Who?

Jeff.

Jeff is not an argument
that I would have used

to have persuaded you to stay.

Ha. I knew that would get you.

Oh, darling, please.

I need a partner.

I need someone that I can trust.
We'll work together.

It'll be wonderful.

Especially with your background
in acquisitions and takeovers.

These, uh, takeovers
and acquisitions,

they wouldn't have anything to do
with Alexis, would they?

Exactly.

You see, I'm in the process
of placing Alexis' head

on the chopping block.

- L just need a little help with the axe.
- Oh.

I can't believe you two are still
at each other's throats.

At each other's throats?

I will be at her throat
until the axe chops through it.

Colbyco ruined
some major takeover deal

between two other companies
while the deal was still in the works.

Yes. So legally, Colbyco is liable,
is that correct?

I would say so, yes.

And you own some stock
in the injured company?

Well, just a little.
I want you to buy me some more.

Because when we sue,
that stock will sh**t up.

So I can destroy Alexis and make
some money at the same time.

k*ll two birds with one stone.

Absolutely.

No. You're crazy, Mother.

You'd be k*lling three birds
with that stone,

and you'd be the third.

Do the words insider trading
mean anything to you?

Oh. Oh.

Oh, Joanna, how are you?

Hello, Monica.
Here to replace me, are you?

One of us needs to go out
and come in again.

No, no, actually, I'm here to talk
to your mother for a few minutes.

No problem. I'm meeting someone
at the Hunt Bar anyway.

And don't forget, you're taking me
to the airport in half an hour.

I won't, darling, thank you.

Sergeant Zorelli, police.
I'd like to speak to Fallon Carrington.

- Please, we don't want any trouble.
- Fallon, are you here?

- I can't let you...
- Please, I just wanna talk to her.

Fallon? Look, if she's here,
just tell her I have to talk to her.

- Fallon?
- It's okay, Heidi.

You sure, Mrs. Carrington?

No, it's fine.

Thank you.

I'm glad to see you're feeling better.

- What can I do for you?
- Where's Fallon?

I don't think she wants to see you.

She's got to see me.

Look, I just wanna talk to her.

- Please, sergeant...
- It's all right, Sammy Jo.

What do you want?

It's good to see you.

Let me have an espresso, please.

That could only be somebody
really dumb, like my sister Monica.

Ha, ha. Dumb? It would take three
of your IQs to match mine.

And there'd still be change.

How are you doing?
Oh, it's good to see you.

Oh.

- Oh, I'll take one of those too, please.
- Yeah, have a seat.

So miss me?

Yeah, as a matter of fact.

What brings you to town?
Are you, uh, hereto see Mommy?

Mm-hm.
And to wish you condolences.

I heard Fallon left you for an alien.

Well, he's Italian, but he has papers.

How about you? Have you found
anyone who can tolerate you yet?

Is my big brother gonna be mean
to me?

Always. Your half-brother
has always treated you mean.

Ha, ha. I'll drink to that. Thank you.

So tell me,
are you here just to visit or...?

Actually,
I'm going to give Denver a try.

- Oh. Watch out, kiddo.
- It's what Mom wants.

Yeah, well, you're walking
into a w*r zone.

And your mother and Alexis
are not taking prisoners.

So whose side are you on?

Whose indeed?

But then loyalty and Jeff Colby
aren't words one normally puts

in the same sentence.

- It's your mother, not mine.
- Thank goodness for that.

Come on, darling,
you'll miss your plane.

I have to pick up a few things
in Los Angeles.

I'll call you when I get back.

Hey, Monica.

It's hard to have a good fight
in a minute and a half.

I certainly hope not.

Let's go.

It was that picture, wasn't it?

You saw that picture, didn't you?

The one that we took of you
at the police station.

Okay. Okay.
Let's say you didn't see it.

So I'll tell you all about it.

Once when you were at the
police station, we videotaped you.

Yeah, that's right.
That's my job. I'm a cop.

We saw you pull out a photo
you were carrying

and compare it to one of Grimes.

You know his name?

Of course we do. We're not morons.

So we enlarged the tape

and we saw your father
and Grimes together.

Meaning that he knew him all along.

You're not surprised, are you?

It was the picture, wasn't it?

Okay.

Okay.

Look, Fallon.

I've never felt this way
about a woman before.

You're making me nuts.
Is that what you want?

What do you want from me, Fallon?

- You want me to quit my job for you?
- No.

I can get another job.

- I got a PhD. I can teach.
- I don't want you to do anything.

I'll dye my hair, I'll change my name.
What do you want from me, Fallon?

How could you betray me like that?

- Betray you?
- And make me betray my father.

- I didn't.
- You didn't?

You used me, you manipulated me.

What kind of a man are you?

I never gave that photo
to my superiors,

that's what kind of man I am.
I told them I didn't have it.

You know what that means?
You know what I was risking?

All because I was stupid enough
to fall in love with you.

Don't say that to me.

You know,

at least one of us
has a screw loose here.

Get out of here, Zorelli.

Get out of my life.

All right.

Okay.

Why don't you take this?

What is it?

It's that damned photo.

You keep it.

A little souvenir of what ruined the best
thing that ever happened to me.

That's right, Alexis Colby.

Her plane is scheduled
to arrive in Denver at what time?

Well, then it could already
have landed.

I see, thank you.

Joanna.

Do you know
what that woman told me?

She as much as said I could
be charged with industrial espionage,

extortion and blackmail.

Now, that's quite a résumé.

You really are someone
we could use at Colbyco.

Well, do you, uh,
still need that sugar?

Always.

There's more where that came from.

How sweet it is.

Of course we'll cooperate
with the subcommittee hearing.

It's in our interest, isn't it?

Yes.

Look, something has just come up.

Can I call you back?

Thank you. Bye.

" s Carrington Estate
Construction or Roger Grimes."

It's Alexis' newspaper.

She's going ahead with it.

What are we going to do?

The woman's insane.

She was married to a Carrington,
a Colby and a Dexier,

and she's going to destroy
all three families.
