02x06 - That Witch

Post by bunniefuu »

- Previously on Dynasty...
- I flew in a very special guest.

Try not to wake the dead.

A powerful betrayal around
this bare-chested man.

He's going to ask you to marry him.

- And will I?
- Yes. Only...

- Only what?
- He will expire.

FALLON: A divorce party,
and it's all the rage.


Don't worry,
I'm not gonna ask for a last kiss.

(crowd cheers)

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Who the hell is that?

I am starting to fall in love.

Open your heart and let me in.

I lost my job in Arizona a week ago.

It was fate.
And you have nowhere else to be

because this is where you belong.

Are we sure four turkeys is enough?

Mr. Carrington is insisting on keeping
our Thanksgiving festivities small.

Because of last year?

If a lunatic woman with a
g*n doesn't turn up tomorrow,

it'll be a grand improvement.

Has anyone seen my baster?

I think Sam took it.

♪ Gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme, gimme, don't stop. ♪

I know we haven't worked
out any of the details yet,

but do you think I could get
an advance on my baby fee?

We haven't discussed any of the details.

But we'll subtract what you
put on Steven's credit card

- in Paraguay from your overall payment.
- Remember,

they have to stick
this up my down under.

Not that specific one.
I doubt it's BYOB.

Hmm?

The second "B" is for "baster."

KIRBY: Oh.

Hi, Daddy.

I know I'm going to regret asking this,
but what exactly is going on?

- We're having a baby.
- We're not having a baby.

Though, I guess technically we are,

but it's for me and Steven.

It'll be my sperm,

and Kirby will provide the egg
and nine months of housing.

And Steven will be back
before she gives birth,

so we all go through
the process together.

You're gonna be a grandfather.

Yay.

Yes, well, clearly,

- that's not going to happen.
- Why not?

Because it's the most ridiculous
thing I've ever heard.

Of course you'd say that.
You've never supported

- anything I do.
- Have you ever considered

going back to university
to find a purpose in life?

Apart from... spawning.

It's my belly. My belly, my choice.

ANDERS: This conversation is not over.

Keep that baster away from the kitchen.

(sighs)

- _
- MICHAEL: You know,

with that storm coming,
your dad's gonna have to cancel

the annual football game tomorrow.
Too bad.

Speaking of which, I was thinking

we should have your
mother and your sister

over for Thanksgiving.

You know,
two families becoming one and all that.

Yeah, that's probably not a good idea.

You know, it's the first
Thanksgiving without my dad,

so it's gonna be a sensitive time.

- And topic.
- Why?

Because they blame my family
for your father's death?

I'm sorry. That was insensitive.

Well, they don't have to come here.
We can go there.

- I don't know, Fallon.
- Is there some kind of...

neutral territory we could meet up at?

Perhaps the church soup line?
Or I could rent out Falcons stadium?

Or does Luella plan on ignoring
her son's fiancée forever?

My mom doesn't know that we're engaged.

What? You never told her?

(sighs)

Are you having second thoughts?
About this?

What? No, of course not.

Okay, well,
I feel like we need to be honest here.

Not "lie by omission" honest.

% truth.

Is there anything you need to tell me?

No.

Fallon, there's nothing going on.

It just hasn't been the
right time to tell her.

Okay. Well, no time like today, then.

I just have to gather some things
to be messengered over to C.A....

well, I guess it's not C.A. anymore...

and then we can go see
your mom this afternoon.

Just be sure to duck if
she reaches for her shoe.

Deal.

If I could have the kitchen, please?

Thank you.

Good morning. Thanks for coming down.

- What are you up to?
- Well, I thought I could make you breakfast

- and we can get to know each other.
- Aren't you full of surprises?

You know, uh...

I've got another surprise.

I don't want to have sex.

In the kitchen or with me?

Obviously, I want to have sex with you.
Look at you.

I just want to do things
differently than I normally do.

You know, my relationship
track record isn't exactly...

- Well, you've met Alexis.
- (chuckles)

Look, I knew very little
about Cristal... Celia...

and that caused a lot
of problems for us.

And to avoid that, I want to know

everything there is to know
about Cristal Jennings.

Sounds good. So...

what's for breakfast?
Are you a good cook?

Terrible. But... I make a great Bellini.

(laughs) You know that's a mimosa,
right?

(Anders clears throat)

Excuse me, sir. Sorry to interrupt.

Dr. Dixon is here to give you a
physical for the life insurance update.

Okay.

And a package arrived for you.
I've had it placed in your room.

Gracias.

To be continued.

ALEXIS: Oh! What are you cleaning with?

Napalm?

It's what I always use.

Oh, so Blake's been inhaling
these toxins every day?

I need you to get rid
of any household product

that is not organic.

Says the woman who's half synthetic.

Is this your new way
of moving in on Dad?

Taking the head housekeeping job?

For your information,
I am trying to save your father's life.

By nagging him to death yourself?

No. I...

Well, I saw that psychic,

and she told me that Blake and
I are meant to be together.

But she also said that he was gonna die.

And you believed her?

I wouldn't be able to live with myself

- if I ignored it and something awful happened.
- Oh, I get it.

You think if you can keep Dad alive,

you two could still be together,
reclaiming your throne and his money.

- This has nothing to do with money.
- Oh, please.

Even you don't believe
your own lies anymore.

Besides,
Blake is finally in a good place.

He seems to like replacement Cristal,

and the last thing he needs
is you following him around

like some fairy godmother
of death prevention.

And what about what the
psychic said to you?

About love,
betrayal and the ultimate kiss?

Was there any truth to that?

No. No, of course not.

Now who's lying?

(chuckles softly)

Severance pay?

$ , .

LIAM: Weird, isn't it?

Yeah. It's like Carrington
Atlantic never existed.

I just came to drop off some things.
Some keys,

badges, security cards.

Oh, because there's no one on
your staff you could've sent?

Can't you just admit

- you wanted to see me?
- I'd admit it if it were true.

But no, actually, I just came to...

to get this lamp.

So we're not gonna talk

about our little divorce
party make out session?

Well, there's nothing to talk about.

It was a mistake.

Fallon, stop.

I mean, you've given me
this song and dance before.

I know what you want.
You know what you want.

And just because you're afraid to say it

doesn't make it any less true.

But I'm done being your backup,
so here's the deal.

Try to go the whole weekend without
thinking about me or that kiss.

And when you can't stop replaying it,

then you'll know you should
be with me and not Culhane.

- Oh, please.
- I'm serious, okay?

I'm going on a four-week trip to Dubai,
Paris, Vienna.

I'll be at the airport Monday morning.

Now, either I see you there,

or this is good-bye.

(sighs)

♪ ♪

Since our breakfast was interrupted,

how does lunch sound?

You know,
I've been craving some quiet, alone,

but totally taking it
slow time with you.

Well, what luck.
I think that's on today's menu.

Well, I hate to tell you this,
but it just started raining.

Or can Blake Carrington
control the clouds?

I can fly you to better weather.

What about your family?

It's Thanksgiving tomorrow.

I suppose, but given all the changes

that have happened in this
family in the last year,

might be time for some new traditions.

If that's what you want.

But on one condition.

- Hmm?
- No lobstertinis.

- How was the office?
- Oh, it was fine. They just needed me

to come in to sign a bunch
of paperwork in person.

It's no big deal.

Wow, you're usually
a better liar than that.

No big deal?

Leaving your family's company,

C.A., has got to be like
breaking up with your first love.

Well, as they say:

when one door closes,
another door opens...

to your future mother-in-law.

- Hey, Mom.
- Hey.

Hello, Luella.

Are you two still seeing each other?

Not only are we still
seeing each other, but...

we're engaged.

(thunder rumbling)

- I didn't see that coming.
- That's why we're here.

Seeing as it's our first
Thanksgiving as a couple,

I would be honored to
invite you and Evie over

for dinner tomorrow at my house.

Well, I-I'm sorry you came all this way,

but as you already know,

I'll be spending Thanksgiving
the way I do every year:

here, serving my community
at my church...

with my family.

Now, please, excuse me.

Is that leak getting worse, Pastor?

Mm-hmm.

Gonna need some more buckets.

You know, give her some time.

SAM: I talked to Steven,

- and he's on board.
- With Kirby?

I find that very hard to believe.

Well, I didn't say
he's jumping up and down,

but he agrees that it's better
than a complete stranger.

The devil you know.

Not that she's the devil.

She's barely going to be the mom.

She's just gonna carry the little guy.

Or girl. Or whatever gender
they'll identify as.

And what about life after baby's born?

Are you planning on telling
the child who its mother is?

Well, we haven't discussed that yet.

Of course you haven't.

I love you, mate,

just like I love Kirby and Steven,

and I can't bear the thought of
the three of you making a mistake

that's going to affect
the rest of your lives,

not to mention the life
of an innocent child.

(rolling thunder,
piano plays upbeat tune)

Wait. This is Blake's luggage.

♪ ♪

(Sam sighs)

Hey, how are you doing
with all the rain?

Steven told me about
your weather phobia.

(sighs)

As long as it's just rain, I'm fine.

What's with the sigh?

Oh, I asked Kirby to carry
our future baby, and...

"Carry" as in have it,
or "carry" as in hold it?

Either way, it's insane.

Oh, that's basically what Anders said.

Should I back out?
I should back out, right?

But I can't because she
kind of terrifies me.

She should. She's nuts.

And do you really want your kid
inheriting those crazy genes?

I would shut it down now.

- (loud thunderclap)
- (sighs)

Trust me.
The longer you let a problem simmer,

the easier it is to get b*rned.

And are those pills to help
with the storm scaries,

or is there something else
simmering on your mind?

What? No. Why?

Well, I saw that kiss with
Liam at the divorce party,

and from where I stood,

it looked more like a
hello than a good-bye.

Well, yes,
that kiss with Liam was confusing,

but I am with Culhane and
so not thinking about Liam.

So, let's not even bring up
the "L" word, kay?

What I'm more concerned about
is Culhane's mother hating me.

I mean, how are he and I
supposed to start a family

if his family doesn't want me around?

Just find a way to charm her.

I found you incredibly
annoying at first,

and look at how close we are now.

I'm really sorry, Mr. Carrington.

We're having some mechanical issues.

We, unfortunately,
won't be able to leave...

Of course we won't.
So we'll go in the morning.

Actually, with the big storm coming in,

all flights are gonna be grounded.

- Of course they are.
- JENNINGS: Maybe a Thanksgiving

- for two just isn't meant to be.
- No way.

Blake Carrington doesn't give up.

I said we're gonna do
things differently.

We're gonna find some
alone time if it kills me.

(thunder crashing)

Thank you, Captain.

I'll, uh, see to it

that your Christmas bonus
is extra merry this year.

(rain pouring)

(loud thunderclap)

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.

I'm sorry.

Confession is not a practice
of the Protestant Church.

Or the Carrington family.

Good thing, too.

Now we can keep this
little meeting between us.

Tell me, Pastor, where do you
stand on divine intervention?

(thunder crashing)

(loud thunderclaps)

Just tell Alexis that you'll
meet her tomorrow night

away from the Carrington property.

(baby crying)

- Hmm.
- I told you... I'm sleep-training him.

- But that's his hungry cry.
- So?

And also, you're crazy to think
I'm going out in this weather.

Don't you call me crazy!

And I'm meeting her,
not you, you dimwit!

Don't call me dumb.
Dimwit's the same thing.

Isn't it?

- Just set up the meeting.
- Why?

So you can k*ll Alexis
like you k*lled Cristal?

So I can get the money
and be done with you!

(baby continues crying)

And tell Alexis if she
doesn't bring the cash,

I'll do more than sh**t
up the turkey this year.

(baby crying, g*n chamber clicks)

♪ ♪

(gentle, rolling thunder)

Oh. Anders? Anders.

I need to make a seating
change for dinner.

Uh, Michael,
his mother and little sister will be

- joining us.
- What about his cousins? His dentist?

Yeah? Well, your father and
Cristal won't be attending.

They're heading on a
road trip in the rain.

Sam doesn't want Kirby
anywhere near the main table,

and your mother is
behaving like a lunatic.

So, yes, we do have room
for a spare three.

Actually, the guest list has
increased significantly, so

we're gonna need twice
as many chairs, tables,

- and way more turkey.
- Of course we are.

(door opening)

Oh!

Wow. Church has nothing on this place.

- Evie.
- Hi.

Luella, um,

I'm so thrilled to hear
you changed your minds.

Oh, I didn't change my mind.

I'm here because I
have two stubborn kids.

EVIE: When Michael said
he was splitting his time,

I didn't want our family
divided on Thanksgiving,

even if it was just for half the day.

Well, I know this isn't
your usual Thanksgiving,

but this dinner is a chance
for all of us to be together

as one family, and I want you guys

to feel at home, so,
whatever you need, just let me know.

LUELLA: Well, I'd like

to put down these pies
before my arms fall off.

I usually put 'em in for
minutes to get 'em extra crisp.

I'll tell the chef.

Just show me which one of
your kitchens I can use.

Sure. Mary?

MARY: Right this way.

(sighs)

Well, lucky how that worked out.

When I did go make a donation
in your family's name,

the pastor just happened to mention
that the roof had seen better days,

so I suggested that he put
my donation towards, um...

(thunderclap)

...you know, fixing the leaks.

So, you basically bribed the pastor.

- He's getting a new roof.
- Fallon, another pill?

We got a long day ahead of us.

Exactly.

I don't understand why
the severance was so big.

LEIGH: I know.

A hundred grand?

A hundred grand?

Yeah. I don't have to work for,
like, two years.

Anyway, this Blue Belt
Industries that bought it...

it's some sort of shell company.

All I could find was that
they have a winery out west.

Why buy a small physical therapy clinic?

However he did it, just think how
huge Frank's payout must've been.

He's been avoiding my calls,

and he sent a nasty text

telling me to mind my own
business and lose his number.

Seriously? What a jerk.

He needs to learn there are
consequences to his actions.

Next time I see him, I swear,

I'm gonna k*ll him.

(rolling thunder)

Did you say something to Sam?

He's been acting shady all of a sudden.

Well, Sam and I did have a discussion

about your childbearing plans.
He wanted my approval,

- which I, in all good conscience, couldn't give.
- Why exactly is that?

Because I think it's important
that both of you understand

what carrying a baby
realistically requires.

You're a little late to
the parenting party, Pops.

I know where babies come from.

Are you aware that you won't
be able to get turnt up

or go full bender for nine months?

Are you aware that I'm not anymore?

I don't need to be Dadsplained.

You don't even know me.

And you clearly don't even want to.

Kirby?

Blake, stop! You can't leave.

Not with this black widow.

- What are you going on about now?
- Evie, please talk to her.

- ALEXIS: I overheard her on the phone...
- Mom.

- The answer is no.
- Is everything okay over here?

I'm obviously not wanted in this house,
so I'll just do you a solid and leave.

- Kirby, don't.
- Hey, Kirby, can you...?

Can you please calm down?

- I think she's trying to k*ll you.
- What are you talking about?

- Mom, Mom, what are you doing?
- SAM: Hold on. Just listen to me.

Sam, Sam, Sam, just let her go. Luella?

Where are you going?

Your chef said they had enough pies.

And I've had enough of all of this.

I did the best I could to put my
feelings about your family aside

for the sake of my own,
but I can't do this.

- Mom, please.
- Today is supposed

to be about helping
others and giving thanks.

All these people do is help themselves.

We both know that you decided
before you even got here

that you weren't going to try,
and you haven't.

That's it. We're leaving.

Pastor, what are you doing here?

Congregation.

Well, Fallon has

generously offered to host our
community dinner here. That,

on top of paying to fix the roof
at the church. She's a saint.

LUELLA: I'm sorry, Pastor.

I need to leave.

Amen to that.

- BLAKE: Let us show you the way.
- PASTOR: We can't.

We received a tornado
warning on our way over here.

We barely made it in time.

All the other church buses have
been rerouted to nearby shelters.

A tornado warning?

Big guy upstairs must have

some exciting plans for all
of us this Thanksgiving.

(loud thunderclap, people gasping)

- Champagne?
- Uh, no, thank you.

Mrs. Culhane,
I'm sorry that I lost my temper earlier,

but you should know that
I have a weather phobia.

I'm not exactly myself tonight.

Bet those pills aren't helping.

I'm just here to help serve my people,

and then go home after
the storm is over.

- I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry.

I can't keep apologizing. First of all,

I'm not very good at it,
and second of all, it's not working.

Then stop. We don't need her
approval for a relationship.

But I want it. It's important to me.

You have mine.
Why do you need anybody else's?

A shrink once told me
that I seek others' approval

to fill the hole left by
my mother's abandonment.

Clearly, I never went back to that guy.

Excuse me. We need more yams.

- We try to do this every year, give back to the community.
- Thank you.

It's just too bad the
other buses didn't make it.

You're a very generous man.

When we're done helping out the needy,

why don't you meet me
downstairs in the wine cellar?

Aren't you afraid that I might
k*ll you like Alexis said?

I'll take my chances.

(piano plays discordant notes)

This piano cost more than my last house,

so maybe tell the kid
to go easy on the keys?

You're starting to sound like my dad.

- How much have you had to drink?
- A lot.

No, no. Don't be mad.
I'm being responsible.

Go get some dessert, kid.

And how exactly is this responsible?

I'm not gonna be able to drink

or do anything fun
when I'm pregnant, right?

So I figure why not squeeze nine months

of partying into three days?

See? Responsible and efficient.

Look, Kirby... we...

Mm. Just don't tell my dad.

Okay? He'll judge me
more than he already does.

He doesn't judge you.

He just sounds that way
because he's old and cranky.

- (keys tinkle)
- Nice try,

but he has sounded that
way my entire life.

I think maybe

we need to have a talk.

Fallon. Fallon?

Did you call me over
here to serve you yams?

Because that's not happening.

No. Actually, I called you over

to see how you're doing
with all this weather.

Oh, that's sweet,
but I don't need your mothering.

I have pills that do a
much better job of that.

You know, I never should
have let the nanny read you

The Wizard of Oz at such a young age.

Course, it was your father's idea.

Speaking of which...
do you know where he is?

Oh, the last time I saw him,

I think Cristal was
just about to k*ll him.

You won't be laughing when he's dead.

And if it's isn't Cristal,

it'll be one of those
vagrants you invited.

I'm already missing my
mother's favorite antique

Staffordshire cow creamer.

Good timing as always, Mother.
I need to go eat.

(sighs) Peace, finally.

This was definitely
one of my better ideas.

- It's very beautiful.
- You should see it from where I sit.

To us getting to know
each other... alone.

Salud.

SAM: You were right.

This Kirby thing isn't gonna work.

Well, naturally, I'm delighted

that you've come to your senses,
but what changed your mind?

Well, I didn't realize,
but she really is kind of insane.

- That's a little extreme.
- Really?

Last time I saw her she
was showing the church kids

how to do tequila sh*ts.

I'm worried that she'll
be teaching Sammy .Jo

how to set the manor on
fire before he can walk.

That's enough, Sam.

Kirby's still my daughter.

And she has some wonderful qualities
that sometimes get overlooked

because of her wild nature.

She's has a rough life.

Deep down inside, she's a...

a caring, passionate girl.

- DIGITAL VOICE: This a tornado alert.
- (emergency alert alarm blares)

Seek shelter immediately.

(phones buzzing)

This is a tornado alert.

Seek shelter immediately.

Please listen up.

Uh, for safety's sake,
will everyone please

follow the staff to the butler's pantry?

We need to move to the cellar.

This way. Thank you.

DIGITAL VOICE: Seek shelter immediately.

Anders, where is Blake?

DIGITAL VOICE: This is a tornado alert.

Seek shelter immediately.

(emergency alarm blaring)

(door opening)

Well, looks like someone's having a leg,
a breast and a thigh.

Can you two put some clothes on?

People need to take shelter.

(both laugh)

- Excuse me.
- Mm-hmm.

Did your mother seriously
call these people derelicts?

Uh, well, technically,
she said "vagrants,"

but, you know, I say vagrants,
you say potato.

- I'm buzzed.
- Well, whatever she said,

my mother wants to leave
as soon as possible.

Well, I'm sorry, but she's stuck here.

I'm sure she blames me for the tornado,
too. Right, Evie?

Yeah, probably.

See? So maybe if your mom
had more of an open mind,

we could be having a better time.

Maybe if your mother didn't
trash my mom's church...

No. My mom has been
on her best behavior.

Trust me. My whole family has.

Don't worry.
We're perfectly safe down here.

Make yourselves comfortable
until the storm passes.

Look, I know she's being difficult,

but maybe if you could just
try to apologize one more time.

Oh, forget it.

- I can't be here right now.
- Fallon.

Fallon. Where are you going?

I got this.

What is going on with you?

What's going on is that
if you don't stand up

to your mother we are
never getting married,

because you will never do
it without her blessing.

- I never said that.
- Oh!

So you're just gonna cut
her out of your life?

You have lost your mind.

You are not acting like yourself.

I'm not acting like myself?

You have been a completely
different person

ever since you got back from New York.

You have been distant,
you have been distracted,

you're taking secret phone calls...

- Can we... Can we please just get back downstairs?

As long as you tell me who the
woman was that you were with.

What woman?

I saw you at the divorce party.

I saw you and I-I gave you a
chance to explain and you didn't.

H-Hold on. Were you spying on me?

No, no, no, no, no.

Don't you try to turn this around on me.

You are the one who's
been keeping secrets.

Are you sure?

Is this really about my mother

I have no idea why you're here.

I have no idea why you can't
get it through your straw head

that I am with Culhane.

- It's like you don't have any...
- Brains.

Well, if I don't...

it's because I've lost my mind for you.

And I've just lost my mind.

Look, I can take you to
the wizard to get you home,

but you need to free me.

- You seem perfectly free to me.
- It's a metaphor.

And the only way to do
it is to give me a kiss.

Hey, I don't make the rules.

(sighs)

(gasps)

(exhales) What the hell was that?

Michael?

What are you doing here?

Well, I've been down here for years.

It's just you're the only
one who ever found me.

Can't seem to move, though.

I think I might need oil or something.

How about champagne?

(sighs) That'll do.

What the hell is he doing here?

- I thought you guys were officially fake divorced.
- We are.

He's just helping me get to the
wizard so that I can get home.

You can come, too, if you want.

- If you're not too busy.
- What else would I be doing in your dream?

I don't know.
You've been so secretive lately.

You didn't even tell your
mom that we were engaged.

Oh, that is heartless.

No one's talking to you, Straw Man.

FALLON: You know what?

I think I'll go find the wizard myself.

There's no way in hell I'm skipping.

Well, maybe the wizard is in the office.

(sighs) How long have

Of course you're the lion.

I'm... loving

the outfit you chose for me.

And I'm thrilled to help
you with this triangle,

but seriously,
what's with the cowardly part?

Well, have you told Kirby

that you don't want
her to have the baby?

Let's get to the Emerald City
already and find you the wizard.

LUELLA: Who dares enter?

My mom's the wizard. Sweet.

Be quiet, son!

I am the great and terrible wizard.

Why are you here?

Man, you grew up with that?

Mrs. Culhane?

Your Wizardness?

Um, I'm here, so could you
please tell me how to get home?

We came all this way to find you
from... the other room.

Getting home is very simple.

Just end your engagement to my son.

- What?
- Huh?

The wizard will never
give you her blessing.

Or approve of this at all.

Are you listening, Michael?

A boy should listen to his mother.

FALLON: Bo?

LUELLA: Stay away from there.

Listen to me.

♪ ♪

Wait.

You're the wizard? I'm the wizard?

We both know the only person
you'll listen to is yourself.

So listen up.

The reason you've been working
so hard for Luella's approval

is because you know you're
not gonna be able to get it.

- But that makes no sense.
- Doesn't it?

If you don't get her approval,

you won't have to make the hard choice
between the road you're on with Culhane,

or a new path with Liam.

Oh. Th-th-that, that's a good point.

Is anyone else freaking out
that there are two Fallons?

- Oh, yeah.
- This is all great,

but could I please just go home now?

I'm exhausted and I
could really use a drink.

Well, that depends.

I mean, where is home?

Who do you want to go home to?

The choice is yours.

Oh, nice try.

You know, if you don't choose,

we can just be alone together
for the rest of our lives.

I'm into it.

Mm.

CULHANE: Fallon.

- ALEXIS: Fallon.
- CULHANE: Fallon.

(sighs)

How are you feeling?

I'm confused.

Any my head hurts.

I'm so relieved you and
your father are okay.

Would you see if you can find
Anders and get an ETA on the medic?

ANDERS: Yes, I know it's Thanksgiving,

but we need someone here tonight.

Mr. Carrington will send
his own chopper if need be.

It behooves you to remember who
paid for the fourth floor clinic

in the east wing of your hospital.

Thank you.

- (phone beeps)
- The medic will be here shortly.

I'll just let Mr. Carrington know.

Mr. Anders, does the name Blue
Belt mean anything to you?

Bye Bye Blue Belt?
Mr. Carrington's favorite racehorse.

The pride of the stables.

I guess you're looking
at this picture of him.

A fine, fine specimen.

(chuckles)

(sighs) I'm sorry we've been fighting.

But that woman was just business.

If we can just hit reset,
I promise it'll get better.

I'm sorry, too.

(soft knocking)

I don't mean to interrupt.

(exhales) I was just going
to get Fallon some water.

Well, I'm glad to see you're okay.

I can also see how much
my son cares for you.

But it worries me that,
when it comes to you,

Michael is defenseless.

- I love your son, Mrs. Culhane.
- I know that.

I witnessed that love tonight.

I also saw you trying to do
something for someone else.

Even if you did seem crazy.

Just...

don't you break my son's heart.

'Cause I can be terrible.

(creaking)

Hello?

Is somebody there?

(sighs)

What are you doing, creeping around?

You've been acting like a lunatic,
at least more than usual, lately.

I've been trying to protect you.

The psychic predicted
that you were going to...

well, that...

(sighs) ...that you
were going to expire.

And she also said that, well,
we're meant to be together.

We're all gonna expire someday.

That doesn't mean I need
you shadowing me everywhere.

Life's too short to deny your destiny.

I've been patient with you.

But you got to get it through your head.

You and I are done, forever.

And if you don't get your act together,

you're gonna lose everyone,
including your daughter.

(exhales)

(grunts)

- You don't have to clean that up.
- It's all good.

No, Kirby, it's not.

I've been treating you unfairly.

I-I'm sorry.

I should have supported
you right from the start.

And instead of trying
to block this pregnancy,

I'd like to help you
every step of the way.

And I'd like you to...
come and live here.

Really?

I'd like that.

Except Sam decided it
would be too complicated

for me to carry the baby.

Oh. Well.

I'm sorry.

- It's probably for the best.
- Baby or no baby,

I'd still like you to move in here.

I miss you.

(chuckles softly)

Dad.

Good, then.

- (quietly): So?
- Your plan worked. (chuckles)

You must have trash-talked
me really good

for him to come around like that.

Tried-and-true reverse psychology.

Just because you aren't
the right candidate

to help me start my family,

I still wanted to help you with yours.

- Alexis knows where to meet me?
- Yep.

A park about minutes from here.

Just like we planned.

Good job.

For once.

All right, I'll be back in two hours,

I'll have the money,
and this will all be over.

(quietly): Unlike you,
I actually know how to get things done.

Oh. And, remember,
if Matthew wakes up, let him cry.

Right. Sleep training.

(Matthew crying)

(shushing)

Shh. Everything's gonna be fine.

- (crying loudly)
- Everything's gonna be fine.

Hey.

Everything's gonna be fine.

ALEXIS: Knock, knock.

You up for a visitor?

If that's ginger tea, then yes.

I'm sorry about the last few days.

I let that crazy psychic get to me.

Or maybe I was just
trying to convince myself

that... it was real

so that I could be a hero to Blake.

I think you're forgetting
what life with Daddy was like.

It wasn't exactly
rainbows and munchkins.

(chuckles) I know.

But sometimes it's easier to
have the perfect relationship

when it stays in...

a fantasy world.

Yeah. That's true.

And it's always good
to know when to let go

and face reality.

But, honestly, it's, um...

(sighs) ...it's quite daunting,

having to figure it out alone.

Wait.

You know, some days,

I can't decide if you're the
good witch or the bad witch.

Or one of those freaky flying monkeys.

And this may be
the concussion talking, but...

...you're still my mom.

Fallon...

Facing reality is more
expensive than you think.

Or so I've heard.

There you are.

- Everything okay?
- Blue Belt?

Either it's really coincidental

that the wine you drink,
your favorite horse,

and the shell company
that bought the clinic

all share the same name,

or you're the reason I lost my job.

You're right. I am.

I was in a dark place.

I had just found out my son wasn't mine.

And I didn't want to lose
a chance to know you.

It was the best way I could
think of to get you to stay.

Buying and then closing
an entire clinic?

Everyone that worked there
was generously taken care of.

(grunts)

I have very bad habits.

I always get what I want.

(chuckles softly)

I understand how this sounds,

but I've never cared for someone
as intensely as I care for you.

So I can't stop myself,
and I don't want to stop myself.

I find you incredibly sexy.

There's nothing more attractive
than a man who knows what he wants

and does what it takes to get it.

But for this to work...
and I do want it to, Blake...

you have to let me know you completely.

No matter what you fear
my reaction might be.

Okay.

You want to know me?

I don't like to play games.

I don't like to waste time.

And I didn't believe in fate

until I met you.

And today reminded me
that life is too short

to wait for what you want.
