04x13 - Go Rescue Someone Else

[bunniefuu]

Previously on Dynasty...

Oh, Cristal!

Help!

Here's the thing.

You may own this club,
but I'm running the show,

which means you will be using my crew.

I just got a reply from
another informant

who said he has North's old BlackBerry.

Your father was not m*rder*d.

You are searching for an
answer that is not there!

- The investigation is not over.
- Yes, it is.

I got to go.

- Liam.
- LIAM: Hey.

Are you... ?

(GRUNTING)

- (ENGINE REVS)
- Get off of me! (GRUNTS)

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

(LINE RINGING)

Where are you?

(PHONE RINGING)

So, I keep asking you what you want,

and you keep ignoring me.

I-I got to be honest, man.

(CHUCKLES): Not the most
hospitable kidnapper.

You talk too much.

Shut your mouth and wait for the boss.

- (DOOR OPENS)
- There's a boss. Great.

See, was that so hard?

(DOOR CLOSES)

What's his name?

(CHUCKLES): Her name is Katy.

And you should have dropped this crusade

when you had the chance, Mr. Ridley.

- Wait, you're Senator North's...
- Chief of staff. Yeah.

Katy Lofflan. You remember me.
I'm flattered.

I knew it.

I knew North was crooked.

Oh, you're adorable.

You think North is behind the
insider trading ring? (CHUCKLES)

That nitwit couldn't
organize a bridge game.

I'm the one running the show.

Always have been.

So you had my father k*lled?

Not here to reminisce.

I am here to solve a problem. You.

When you told North that you
had transcript of an interview

with one of his former aides,
you left me no choice.

He might be able to place
me at certain... events.

And if the SEC gets ahold of it,

then they'll reopen the investigation.

There was no concrete proof.

None that you could piece together.

But the FBI tends to be
a little more thorough,

and it's only a matter of
time until they connect

your father's death to me,
not North, and that...

that would be a bad thing.

Even without that transcript,
I have a mountain of evidence

that connects you to the
insider trading ring.

You had.

You see, the same hacker
that got me into your email

also deleted the digital
trail of your investigation,

so any information that you had
in the cloud has just evaporated.

But you still need my personal computer.

Beauty and brains.

Ooh, you really are the whole package.

I'll die before I hand
over that computer.

KATY: Well, you're half right.

But if you want your wife to live,

then you will do as I say.

JEFF: Nolan Jamison.

It has been a while, my friend.

You like your coffee with
a little bit of whiskey

- if I recall correctly?
- Well, you know me.

I like to get a jump on the day.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

I was a little surprised
to hear from you.

Can't two tech moguls share
a drink every now and then?

Only if one mogul tells the
other what he's really after.

Rumor has it you're
working on something big

in the area of fuel-efficient
energy sources.

Well, I don't comment on rumor.

Except to say that this one is true

and it is revolutionary.

Mm. (CHUCKLES)

Well, I'm always looking for
cost-saving measures at Colby Co.

- How much do you want for it?
- Easy, Colby.

It's still in the early
stages of development.

I'm talking about buying
your entire company.

Name your price. Everyone has one.

Look, you think big. I'll give you that.

But I'm not looking to walk
away from anything just yet.

Unlike you with Alexis.

I heard about the divorce. It's a shame.

Yeah, well, we were on different paths.

No idea why you let someone
that hot get away.

You know, Alexis and I are still close.

What do you say the three
of us have drinks tonight?

Hmm? You two can catch up,

and maybe we can discuss a more
formal offer for your company.

Well, I guess another
round of drinks never hurt.

(CHUCKLES)

Cheers.

BLAKE: How are you feeling?

Boy, you had me worried
there for a minute.

You weren't the only one, trust me.

- Blake, I'm scared.
- We're gonna b*at this together.

All right, I just got
your lab results back,

and the tumor is pressing on your brain,

which is what caused the fainting.

Well, good thing we have a
doctor to state the obvious.

Um, u-unfortunately,
things will get worse.

Seizures, nerve damage.

I thought the treatments were working.

They were shrinking the tumor.

Slowly. We need it to shrink further

before we can do surgery.

But your vitals are stable,

so we have a little time.

And when the time comes,
will you do the surgery?

I've done several neuro rotations,

but I'm not a neurosurgeon.

Thank you. You've done enough already.

I want the best surgeon
in the world for this.

Wanda Scott at Rifkin
Rhodes Cancer Center.

- She's the one.
- Dr. Scott is definitely the best.

I've met her a few times
at medical conferences.

Well, what are you waiting
for? Go call the woman.

(REFRIGERATOR OPENS)

(GRUNTS)

- Is something wrong?
- Nope.

Nope, everything is just great.

What makes you think something's wrong?

Well, you haven't prepared
your own breakfast

since you b*rned the pantry down

with your Easy-Bake Oven in .

Okay, well, nowhere
on that box did it say

that it couldn't be used
for eggs Florentine.

You want to talk about it?

Pretty sure I wrote a
strongly worded letter.

No, I mean do you want to talk
about what's really bothering you?

(SIGHS)

Liam never came home last night.

We had a huge fight after
Senator North's party.

He is convinced that the
senator m*rder*d his father

after he threatened to expose

- an insider trading ring.
- Really?

- I voted for that man.
- Relax, it wasn't him.

But Liam refuses to drop it.

He went to go meet with
another informant last night,

and I haven't heard from him since.

Well, I'm-I'm sure he'll be fine.

Liam's very passionate about his work.

I don't think you have
anything to worry about.

I'm not worried. I'm angry.

Well, he'll be home soon enough,

and then you can yell
at him all you want.

You said that about Kirby, too,

but it's clear your little
tiff isn't over yet.

Have you spoken to her at all since
you kicked her out of the manor

and she ran off with
that lunatic ex of hers?

No.

But I-I think I made the right decision.

I told her at the time that
as soon as she's ready

to make some changes in her life,

I will be here for her.

She hasn't returned any of my calls.

(PHONE VIBRATING)

Maybe that's her now.

No, it's Liam.

Where the hell have you been?

Fallon, hey. Uh, sorry I-I didn't call.

I just have been busy.

FALLON: Oh, yes, I know.
Writing the article

that's gonna win you the Pulitzer.

Why didn't you come home last night?

It turned out he had a lot of
good info, uh, for the piece,

so we just went on a
bar crawl as we talked.

Just like how your
bachelorette party started.

I see.

LIAM: Anyway, um, it got late,

so I just crashed at the
Georgian Terrace Hotel.

But, hey, good news is I found
a buyer for the article.

I just need my laptop
to-to finish the piece.

Can you drop it off by : p.m.?

You want me to bring you your laptop?

Yeah. Yeah, I-I'd get it myself,

but I'm gonna be out
chasing a final source.

You understand, right, sweetie?

I understand.

Okay, I'll drop it off by : p.m.

(EXHALES)

Well done, Mr. Ridley.

Pretty good at lying to your wife.

See? Everything's fine.

No. Nothing is fine.

Liam has been kidnapped.

Okay, great. Thanks.

Did you reach Dr. Scott?

She's on vacation. But I
worked some connections,

and I tracked her down to her
cabin in the Smoky Mountains.

- What'd she say?
- When she's done with her trip,

she's happy to fly down to
Atlanta and do a consult,

so everything's gonna be okay.

No, not everything.

What the hell were you thinking,
keeping all this a secret from me?

If you had told me about this sooner,

I could have flown in the best doctors.

Maybe we wouldn't be in this position.

- That wasn't my decision...
- Just save it.

You put her life in danger,
and as far as I'm concerned,

if she dies, it's your fault.

I told Liam he was crazy,

but it turns out he wasn't crazy.

He was actually onto
something the entire time.

Fallon, you're not making any sense.

What makes you think
that Liam was kidnapped?

Liam said his night started
like my bachelorette party,

and that night started when Kirby
and Sam kidnapped me. Okay?

Plus, he called me sweetie,

and he knows that pet names
make me nauseous.

Clearly, it was all code to
tell me that he's in trouble.

And that's the total
basis of your theory?

Trust me, I am right.

Whoever kidnapped Liam wants
his computer by : p.m.,

which means that Liam has some
evidence pointing to their guilt.

Well, if this is real, have you
considered the possibility

of copying the data and then
handing over the computer?

No, not possible. When we got hacked,

Jeff told us there was some way to tell

if files had been copied
from a computer.

They'll know we're onto them,

and they k*lled Liam's
father for knowing less.

So, basically, the only
reason Liam is still alive

is because that laptop exists.

Then our only option is to
find Liam before the deadline

and then use our collateral
to secure his safe return.

And I know just where to start.

Nice to see you're enjoying
our divorce settlement.

Yes, I suppose I do have
you to thank for it.

Mm, then my timing's perfect.

Now's your chance to repay
me for all my generosity.

Aw. Take five, boys.

The ex needs my attention.

You've met Nolan Jamison, right?

Yes.

Well, I'm making a bid for his company,

and it seems he has a
thing for your... assets.

So, I need you to join me
for drinks with him tonight

so I can close the deal.

Nolan "Captain of the
Geek Squad" Jamison?

I don't think so.

Figured that might be
your first response,

which is why I have a prepaid,
six-figure emerald necklace

on hold for you after this is over.

Yes, well, I suppose
Nolan is harmless enough.

And geeks are cool these days.

But... why do you want
to buy his company?

Let's just say Nolan has
something I really need.

Do me this favor, Alexis. Please.

Of course. I'm always one
to help an ex in need.

But it will cost you the Ruscha instead.

My original Ed Ruscha painting?

Oh, that would be the one.

But that's worth, like,
ten times the necklace.

Mm, as is my presence tonight.

So, are you going stag,

or do we have a deal?

MICHAEL: We got this.

Just play it cool and follow my lead.

Well, now I'm nervous.

I knew we should have rehearsed this.

Leo, my friend.

Can we grab you for a sec?

Morning, guys. Day one.

- Pretty exciting, huh?
- Yeah.

- Uh, about that...
- (CLEARS THROAT)

Uh, we're all businessmen here.

- Am I right?
- Total businessmen.

And as businessmen,

we have an offer that we think
you... (CLICKS TONGUE) might like.

I'm listening.

So, why don't you tell
your crew to pack it up,

and in exchange for all of your trouble,

we hand you this check for grand.

No strings attached.

(CHUCKLES): Fellas,
I can't take your money.

You can't?

What kind of partner would
I be to back out now?

- A wealthy one.
- (ALL LAUGH)

Ah, you guys don't give up.

I like that in people I work with.

I can already tell this is going
to be a great relationship.

In fact, I'm thinking of setting
up shop here long-term.

Excuse me?

Yeah, once we finish the job,

I figure this is a good place
to clean some cash.

Know what I'm saying?

Did he just say...

That La Mirage is going to be used
as a money laundering front.

Yep.

(ENGINE TURNS OFF)

Well, here we are.

(DOOR CLOSES)

The intersection of Urine and Drug Deal.

Are you sure we're in the right place?

Yep. Liam and I use Find My Friends

so we always know
where the other one is.

Sidebar: I disabled mine.

But this is the last place
his phone pinged.

Maybe his Uber dropped him on
the other side of the building.

There's no sign of a struggle here.

I guess this gold butterfly
doesn't belong to Liam?

Try signature dragonfly bauble.

And no, no, it belongs to
a Simone St. Croix clutch.

It's a purse.

- Only a precious few were made.
- I see. Well, sadly,

despite the depth of your
handbag knowledge,

I don't think it's gonna
help us find Liam.

NORTH: Daphne, was it?

Always have time for a
drink with a constituent.

Uh, Senator?

A word.

Daphne, this is my chief
of staff, Katy Lofflan.

Yes. Yes!

The senator's chief of staff was
carrying this bag last night.

Rather a-a pricey item for
someone in politics, no?

Not for someone who's also
running an insider trading ring.

I was just thinking
about how short life is.

So many things I should
have said to people.

Told more of them I love them.

And I would have focused
more on my family.

You're gonna have time to take
care of unfinished business.

We don't know that.

My father and I still haven't
spoken since our fight.

If something happens,

I need him to know that I love him.

And I forgive him.

You have to help me find him.

- (CART APPROACHING)
- Please.

What's all this?

Just a little something I had
Mrs. Gunnerson whip up.

Thought a cup of your
favorite chamomile tea

would put a smile on your face.

Blake, that's so sweet of you.

May I pour you a spot of tea, madam?

You certainly may.

Oh! Oh, honey.

- Oh! Here.
- Oh, I'm so sorry.

- Here you go.
- It's okay, really. It doesn't hurt.

This tea was scalding hot.

- Honey, your hand.
- Cristal,

did you not feel that burn your hand?

Can you feel anything in your hand?

No, I can't. What's happening?

The tumor's pressing on your spinal cord

and causing focal neurological symptoms.

- What are those?
- End-stage symptoms.

We don't have days to get this
tumor out. We have hours.

But you said Dr. Scott
was away at her cabin.

She can't get here that soon.

She can, and she will.

I'll use the jet, and
I'll pick her up myself.

- It's the fastest way.
- Great.

- I'll tell her you're on your way.
- Don't worry, sweetheart.

We're gonna get through this.

I love you.

FALLON: Where would Katy take him?

ANDERS: It can't be far.

Not until she gets that computer.

I should have known it was her.

She had shifty eyes,

and she was wearing all black
to an outdoor garden party.

All the signs were there.

My PI is running Ms. Lofflan through
all the usual background checks.

We should have some news soon.

Yeah, but what if it's not soon enough?

I mean, if we're too late and if
something happens to him, then...

He's everything to me, Anders.

And the last time I saw him,

I said some terrible things
that I really regret,

and I wish I could
just take it all back.

We all say things we regret
in the heat of the moment.

I know I wish I could take back
some of the things I said to Kirby.

(CHUCKLES)

I miss her.

I thought she'd be home by now.

(PHONE CHIMES)

Ah. Ms. Lofflan doesn't own
any property in Georgia,

but her brother does.

Chain of convenience stores and
a warehouse over in Marietta.

Do you think that's where
she's holding Liam?

There's only one way to find out.

SIMMONS: Excuse me.

- Sam Jones?
- Uh-huh?

Your front desk staff said
I could find you here.

Michael Culhane, Sam's partner.
What can we help you with?

I'm IRS Special Agent Jerry Simmons.

A former employee of yours

called in an anonymous
tip of accounting fraud

- at this establishment.
- What? There must be a mistake.

The employee stated that
he was told not to enter

all the receipts in the books.

Now, that triggered an audit

and a potential criminal investigation.

That's insane. There's
no fraud going on here.

Well, then, this should be easy.

I'll just need to see your
books from the last year,

and we'll be monitoring your
accounting practices going forward.

MICHAEL: We don't have that
information readily available.

Understandable.

I'll give you a few hours
to pull your records,

and then perhaps we
can sit down and chat.

Seems like a good time for a break.

This is crazy.

I know. You think it'll work?

It better. Otherwise, calling
in a fraud tip on ourselves

is gonna seem pretty stupid.

Relax. All the books are legit, right?

- Uh-huh.
- Now, it's a hassle,

but the IRS isn't gonna
find anything wrong.

Did you see the look on Leo's face

when he heard that they're
gonna be checking our books?

There's no way can he run a money
laundering scam through here now.

FALLON: You got to be
freaking kidding me.

There must be over a
dozen warehouses here.

How much beef jerky and lottery
tickets can one man store?

It's almost : p.m.,
which is the deadline.

We might have to split up.

Okay. I'll scream if I find him.

Or, rather than alert
Ms. Lofflan to our arrival,

you could instead text me.

I love it.

An element of surprise. So smart.

Are you okay? I mean, are
you getting your work done?

Yeah. Yeah, all good.

Were you able to get the laptop?

Yes. Yes.

I actually just dropped it
off at the hotel front desk,

so you can go pick it up, uh, like, now.

Thank you.

(RINGING STOPS)

Planning on answering any
of these texts or calls?

Why would I do that?

Because, clearly, somebody
is trying to reach you.

Right, so they can yell
at me and be all judgy.

If I wanted to deal with that,

I would have just stayed at the manor.

I thought you got kicked out.

You know what I mean.

Why don't we just go back home.

Home? Like Australia home?

We can do whatever we want there.

No one yelling or judging.

Plus, we're running out of money,

and this place is starting
to skeeve me out.

(PHONE RINGING)

- Enough!
- (PHONE SHATTERS)

Okay.

Well, point is I can get us
on a flight in a few hours.

Let's pack up and do this, huh?

M-Maybe later.

Right now, I need a pick-me-up.

Do we have any more stuff?

It is so nice to see you again, Alexis.

I think the last time was at that
New Year's Eve party in Belize.

You're right.

Wow, that was a long time ago.

A lot has happened to me since then.

Well, you look better than ever.

JEFF: So, Nolan,

maybe we can revisit our
discussion from earlier today.

I told you I wasn't interested
in selling my company,

- and nothing's changed.
- (JEFF SCOFFS)

But you haven't heard my offer yet.

Well, my company is my baby,

and I don't sell babies.

And this isn't the time
to talk business, Colby,

especially with such a stunning
specimen sitting here with us.

- Oh.
- Now, if I remember,

you were a pretty fancy
art collector, right?

I like to think that I have an
eye for expensive things.

Well, I don't mean to brag,

but I've got quite the
collection myself these days.

You know, I would love your opinion

on a few things I'm considering buying.

- Of course.
- JEFF: Well, if you want art,

I have a few pieces I can
throw in to sweeten the deal.

If you'll just give me five
minutes to talk to you...

Jeff, you heard the man.

He doesn't want to talk business.

Can't you just relax?

Should we get you another drink?

No.

In fact...

Hope you two have a great night.

More champagne for us.

So... Nolan...

Art. Business.

What else don't I know about you?

(GRUNTS SOFTLY)

LIAM: Hey.

Are you okay?

I feel like I got hit in the
head with a baseball bat.

KATY: Where is the laptop?

Playtime is over.

I've had enough of this.

You'll never know where the
laptop is until you let us go.

- (CHUCKLES)
- We're not stupid.

This isn't my first rodeo, lady.

It's not even my first kidnapping.

But it will be your last.

Promise.

You're right. You're not stupid.
So you pretty much know

that I can't just let you walk
out of here. (CHUCKLES)

I am not going to jail for
insider trading or m*rder

or even jaywalking.

Where is the damn computer?

- I already told you.
- And I am telling you.

If you don't give up the location
of the laptop voluntarily,

then I am going to have to make you.

I know it doesn't look like it,

but I'm actually very
handy with tools, so...

You can either tell me now,

or you can watch what I
do to your new husband

until you can't take it anymore.

But either way...

... I'm gonna get what I need from you.

(THUNDER RUMBLES)

Again, thank you for
cutting your trip short.

Of course.

And we're clear about the money?

The fee will be in my
personal account today?

Wasn't aware the Hippocratic oath

included a clause for
seven-figure appearance fees.

Yes. It's right after "do no harm."

we should be on the ground in
Atlanta in less than an hour.

I need to take us off autopilot.

Oh, no.

He's out cold.

Even if he wakes up,
he won't be able to fly.

Are you sure? What... ?

There's no copilot.

Hey, what are you... Where're you going?

Are you a pilot?

I'm the closest thing we have
right now to a conscious one.

Mayday! Mayday!

- So we wait?

Uh, I-I'd like to get you in

but Dr. Scott is our best option,

so you're just gonna have to hold on.

What about my father?

Were you able to talk to him?

I couldn't get ahold of him.
He's in the Swiss Alps.

But I-I did get him a message,

Saying what?

He accepts your forgiveness.

It doesn't matter.

FALLON: No! No! Don't!

Don't. I will tell you

She can't get away with this.

No. No!

- ANDERS: Enough!
- (LIAM GROANING)

This is Liam's computer.

Let them go, and I'll turn it over.

Or I can have Paddy here
sh**t you, and I'll take it.

A solid plan.

Uh, but the police are on their way,

and we need to trust each other

if you want to get out
of here before that.

So, do I have your word
that you'll let them go

if I hand this over?

- No, Anders, don't!
- Yes.

But I'm gonna need to verify

that that is the real laptop.

Move.

Soon as we know this
is legit, k*ll them all.

I knew you were lying.

You don't deserve that purse.

No, he's the one who's lying.

Yes. Just double-checking the parameters

to make sure I don't

Where are we at, Dr. Carrington?

Dr. Scott? But h-how did you get here?

- We-we couldn't...
- The pilot passed out.

Your father had to make
an emergency landing

in the middle of nowhere, and
we drove miles an hour

- to get here.
- So Father's okay?

What about the pilot?

Maybe we save this woman's
life first and chat later.

- Right. I'm sorry. I'll-I'll go.
- Where the hell are you going?

I thought you want me out.

I don't have my usual team,

and this surgery's got
a long ways to go.

I'm gonna need some help.

Seeing as how you haven't
k*lled the patient yet,

I'm thinking you're
the best one to assist.

Wait, what do you mean,
the case is closed?

You can hang up.

Agent Simmons and the IRS
are no longer a problem.

What about the audit?

They said that the case is closed.

Exactly. It's over. You're welcome.

- You did this?
- I mean, I had help.

I've had to deal with the IRS for years

'cause of all the city-approved jobs,

so I know some people there.

- I don't know what to say.
- Just say thanks.

'Cause that's what partners
do. Look out for each other.

You know what partners don't do?

Try to s*ab each other in the back.

(GRUNTS, SHOUTS)

What the... ?!

I-I don't know what you're
talking about, man!

You called the IRS yourself

thinking if they were looking
at the books, I'd get scared.

Well, Michael,

seems like you're the only one
who should be scared right now.

FALLON: Does it hurt?

Well, uh, it doesn't feel
a lot like Christmas.

- How's your head?
- It's fine.

I'm sorry, Liam.

- No, it's not your fault.
- No.

Not for the finger.

For not believing you.

Although, in my defense,

technically, I was right.

It wasn't the senator.

And I did believe you when it mattered.

Fallon, it's fine.

I'm just glad that...

my dad's k*ller's gonna
pay after all this time.

Plus, this exposé I'm writing
is gonna be amazing.

I'm sure it will be,

even if we almost had to
die so you could write it.

(CHUCKLES)

How about Anders, huh?

Who knew the old guy had it in him?

I did.

He's always been there for me.

You certainly stormed off in a huff.

You could've stayed a little longer.

Well, when he wouldn't accept
my offer for his company,

I knew it was time for plan B.

And it went exactly as we hoped.

You charmed him into revealing
some company secrets?

I think so.

But you know us girls, bored
with all that business talk.

I excused myself to powder my nose

and wrote down everything
I could remember.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Alexis, this is all amazing.

When I told him science turned me on,

he wouldn't stop talking
about frozen fuel.

His secret w*apon.

Good thing he didn't know he was
talking to my secret w*apon.

Now I know frozen fuel sources are
where I need to focus my research.

I will say, he's a bit of a nutjob.

I don't know if he was
trying to impress me,

but he kept talking about
winning the space race.

If you ask me, you dodged a b*llet
by not buying his company.

Thanks to you, now I don't have to.

Oh, great.

Between Liam's finger and your ribs,

I am going to feel guilty for a while.

Oh, don't worry. It only hurts
when I move or breathe.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

I just wanted to say thank
you for all of your help.

No worries. I'm just
glad it all worked out.

You know,

whenever I've needed you,
you've been there for me.

I mean, seriously, how many times

do you think you've saved my ass?

Well, I stopped counting
when you turned .

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

(GROANS) But don't worry.

Nothing's gonna happen to
you while I can help it.

You're like a daughter to me.

I know.

And that really means the world to me.

But there is someone else out there

who actually is a daughter to you.

And eventually, she's gonna come home.

And I want you to think
about forgiving her.

I already have.

And I'll be glad to tell her
so when I see her next.

(GRUNTS) But in the meantime,

I want to go and visit
Cristal in the hospital.

So, your vitals are all pretty good,

and Dr. Scott is confident
that she got all of the tumor.

I really don't think this
could have gone any better.

Thank you, Adam.

You've been here for me this whole time.

And I so appreciate you reaching
out to my father, as well.

Uh, truth is, while I did reach out,

I never got a response from your father.

There was no email.

I just wanted you to have some peace

before you went into surgery.

I thought it would help,

and I knew that you'd be
able to contact him yourself.

Maybe it's time for you to
get some rest, sweetheart.

You're right.

I couldn't have made it this
far without the two of you.

I needed you both.

Just like you two need each other.

PRIEST: We are gathered here to
say farewell to Joseph Anders

and to commit him into the hands of God.

His was a life fully lived.

Respected, admired,

counted upon,

Joseph was the touchstone for many,

making everyone feel as if
they were part of his family.

So, while we no doubt feel
sorrow for what we have lost,

let us not forget to be
grateful for what we had.

A man we were all privileged to know

and one who will not soon be forgotten.

It's like losing another father.

The one who actually raised me.

Yeah, I'm sure.

But Cristal's doing really well.

- That should bring you some comfort.
- Oh, yeah.

Yeah, it definitely does.

Almost lost the two most important
people in my life on the same day.

I'm sorry about before.

I shouldn't have yelled at
you like that. I just...

Hey, it's all good.
No apologies. We're...

We're okay. I just...

After seeing Cristal get
upset about her father,

I-I don't want anything
like that to happen to us.

It won't.

Thank you, son.

I know it sounds dumb, but...

for some reason, he always seemed
indestructible to me, you know?

Like...

(SIGHS) Like there was no way

death would even try and mess with him.

I know what you mean.

I worked with him for years.
I never once saw him flustered

or not completely in control.

(CHUCKLES) It was impressive.

I know how much he meant to you.

And trust me, you meant
just as much to him.

It's like the world won't
let us catch a break.

As soon as we fixed
the Leo problem, we...

We didn't fix the Leo problem?

Somehow, he got the
IRS to drop the case.

FALLON: Hey.

No word from Kirby, I presume?

I've been trying to find her for days.

Nobody has heard from her.

She's gone off the grid
with Oliver or something.

I can't believe she missed
her own father's funeral.

LIAM: She's gonna be devastated.

I don't know how we're gonna tell her.

Well, I guess we'll
have to find her first.

(PHONE RINGING)

Oliver, why are you calling me?

Shouldn't you be on the other
side of the world by now?

We need to talk, and yours
is the only number I have.

I can't talk.

There's a lot going on today.

Do you know how I can
get in touch with Kirby?

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

There's a lot going on here, too.

I'm getting on a plane.

Kirby's unable to talk at the moment.

I don't understand. Where are you?

- What're you talking about?
- She's a mess.

You have started this disaster,

and you are going to clean it up.

I'll text you the address.

Then do me a favor and lose my number.

What is it?

I know where Kirby is.

Kirby, are you in here?

Kirby?

Oh, my God.

Kirby.

She's barely got a pulse.
Call . Kirby.

Kirby, it's Sam.
