All language subtitles for Dynasty S01E14 Blake Goes to Jail

Sorry. Absolutely no press inside.

Sorry. You can't go in there.

This is Mrs. Carrington
Mrs. Blake Carrington.

Where's Blake?
He's in the library.

Krystle.

Thank God you're back.

Look, it's none of my business why you left.

You made the right decisionyou're back.

When I left this morning,
I wasn't coming back.

Now, don't tell Blake that.

He already knows.

Yeah, well, he doesn't believe it.

Be careful what you say and do, please.

Come on.

Just give me a moment.
No! No!

Mr. Carrington, you know the law.

If you don't, this is the law.
We've got to take you to headquarters.

I told you that it was an accident.
I've told you that!

Andrew, will you tell them?
I'm not going anywhere.

You tell them that
the whole thing was a mistake.

It was an argument an accident.

I've tried to explain that
to them. Haven't I?

It's not our place to decide that.

Blake, listen to me carefully.

This is very serious.
Ted Dinard is dead.

You have to go with them.

Have you heard from Krystle?

I'm not I'm not going anywhere
till I hear from her.

She's here, Blake. She's here.

Fellas, uh, can you give him
a couple of minutes?

Thank you.

Mr. Carrington?

I'm sorry, Mr. Carrington,
but I have to do this.

Wait a minute! What are you doing?
You can't put those on him.

It's all right.
They're just doing their job.

They've got to take me downtown.
Oh.

- There he is.!
- Come on. Back up. Give him room.

They're gonna
go for first degree murder one.

What?
The word is already out.

The D.A.'s gonna push on this one
and push hard.

What are you talking about?
There was no weapon. There was nothing.

It It was an accident.

They're gonna go for it, Blake.

One of your servants told the police...

that they heard you
threaten Dinard's life...

just before you went up the stairs.

That's premeditation. Now, legally,
it can be a year of plotting...

a minute, a half a minute.

But there was no... premeditation.

This would normally
be a manslaughter charge...

and you'd probably get probation,
but I can tell you this, Blake

that's not the way it's gonna be,
not on this one.

All right.

You get on the phone
and do what you have to do.

Now, we've helped put
a lot of politicians into office.

Call in those I.O.U.'s.
Call in some of those markers, Andrew.

You get this thing taken care of,
and you do it right now.

Blake. Blake, you don't understand.

I don't need to understand.
ThatThat's what I've got you for.

Now you go ahead and handle it.

Krystle, uh, why don't you go home
and try to get some rest?

This is liable to turn
into a long night for him.

We still have to get the bail set.

No. I want to stay.

Blake, I'm gonna
spell it out for you, okay?

You stepped on a lot of political toes.

You supported a lot of the wrong people
in political campaigns.

You passed out a hell of a lot of money...

to causes resented by
a hell of a lot of people.

They've been sitting around
just waiting for a chance like this

to watch Blake Carrington go under.

What about my friends?
You said it yourself

"The only friend is a dead enemy.''

And to put it bluntly, a lot of
people would like to see you dead...

or at least locked up.

Yes, but we still have... friends.

This is gonna get very messy.

Krystle, I really think you should go.

Do it, please.

I figured you'd be here.

And I'm here.

Why? Krystle, for once in your life,
use your head.

Matthew, I'm so tired.

Hey, hey.

Are you gonna listen to me?
What?

I want you to listen to me.

Krystle, now, you know this trial
is going to be very, very hard.

You know that, don't you?
Yes.

Then run from it, Krystle,
the way you started to.

Run from the both of us Blake and me.

Maybe I shouldn't say this, but...

you finally had the courage
to do the right thing, Krystle.

Now, damn it, do it.

Did you desert Claudia
when she was in trouble?

No.

Blake's still my husband.

I'm gonna stand by him. It's that simple.

son of these harsh yet
magnificent Dakotas...

rest in eternal peace.

I'm very sorry, Mrs. Dinard.

They could at least have had the grace
to accept your apology.

It was an accident.
Was it, Fallon?

Please, leave him alone.

I'm press Fargo Post.
I've got a right to be here.

He's been through enough. Please.

Be fair, Mrs. Colby. I've got a job to do.

Now, this is worth 150 bucks to me.

If you think this is anything, you
wait till that trial in Denver begins.

I mean, that one's got to be
a fullblown media circus.

Make a hole. Make a hole.
Make a hole.

Get back. Get back.

All right.
Outside with the cameras.

Come on. You know better than that.

You, too, lady. Out.

Everything's gonna be all right.

Dunham.
Morning, Mr. Laird.

What's this one little old attorney?

One skinny attache case?

What's happened to the rest
of the legal brigade?

Could it be that we're supposed to
see how lean things have become...

for poor Blake Carrington?

I do believe we'll have the jury in tears
before the trial even begins.

Well, we're sure gonna try, Mr. Dunham.
Uh, Mr. Laird.

I just wanna say I've been
an admirer of yours for a long time.

Thank you.
I'm really gonna enjoy this.

Kinda reminds me of my football days
first time I ever made the varsity.

I finally get to play with the big boys.

One of our investigators
told me last night...

that Dunham and Matthew Blaisdel
went to college together.

Yeah. They played football.
Matter of fact, Dunham was very good.

I tried to get him for my team.

He He said he wanted
to go to law school.

Maybe I should have pushed harder,
upped the salary offer.

Well, he knew what he was doing.

Don't let the downhome
suit and tie fool you.

If anybody's got his eye on
the governor's office someday, it's Dunham.

Then let's hope he doesn't make it
over my dead body.

What's Blaisdel's wife
still doing on your witness list?

I know you asked me not to include her, but
I told you not to.

Blake, we cannot start this trial
with you tying my hands.

I don't understand you.

You're willing to have me try to buy off

practically anyone, outside
of the White House...

and this is where you draw the line.

Why?
It's just the way I feel.

You do this one thing for me,
and I promise I will not interfere again.

You're making a big mistake.
She and Steven

Had an affair. I know that.
But, no, not this woman.

She's already been through one hell.

Okay, for now.

But there are no guarantees.
I may need her.

All rise.

Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye.

Court 23 of the District Court of the City
and County of Denver, State of Colorado...

is now open and ready
for the transaction ofbusiness.

The Honorable Horatio Quinlan presiding.

Docket number 81 CD 134.

The People of the State of
Colorado v. Blake Carrington.

What's going on in there, Steven?

They're selecting a jury of his peers.

Oh, that's a joke. Who are they
to judge Blake Carrington?

What about Ted?

Are they his peers, Fallon?

Let me put it this way,
ladies and gentlemen.

Ajury trial is Well, it's a little bit
like a giantjigsaw puzzle.

The evidence comes in
one piece at a time.

While each individual piece
when you look at it closely

doesn't seem to make
very much sense...

when you put it all together, and you step
back, and you look at the big picture...

it all becomes very clear.

What I'd like to do right now
is to just give you a basic idea...

of what the individual pieces of this
particular puzzle are gonna look like.

Now, the judge has told you that...

Mr. Blake Carrington,
seated at that table over there

has been charged with murder.

The prosecution will show that,
on the night of November 12...

the victim of that murder Mr. Ted Dinard

was in the Carrington house,
upstairs in Steven Carrington's room.

The prosecution will also show...

that the victim, Mr. Dinard...

and Steven Carrington,
the defendant's son...

had been lovers...
for a considerable period of time.

We will also show
that Mr. Blake Carrington...

knew about this
homosexual relationship...

that existed between his son
and Mr. Dinard...

and, because of that relationship,
he hated the victim...

with a cold and unrelenting hatred.

And on that particular night...

when Mr. Carrington
arrived at the house...

and when he learned that the two young men
were alone upstairs together...

in a cold rage...

he issued a threat
a most violent threat

in the presence of a witness.

And at that very moment,
Mr. Blake Carrington formed the intent

the premeditated intent
to take the life of Ted Dinard.

And a very few moments later,
the defendant burst into his son's room...

and, in his hatred for Ted Dinard...

delivered a powerful blow
with all of his strength...

against the unresisting victim,
causing his death

a death he intended to cause.

This is what the prosecution
intends to prove, ladies and gentlemen.

And this is what we will prove.

Now...

during the selection process...

you were all asked several questions...

about your personal attitudes
towards homosexuality.

I'd like to remind you...

we all of us have a right to our lives,
ladies and gentlemen...

regardless of our sexual orientation.

But be prepared.

Be prepared for the defense
attorney, however...

who may try to create a diversion here...

a smoke screen, if you will.

He may try to confuse you
into thinking somehow...

that the dead young man, Mr. Dinard...

was the criminal in this case...

and not the defendant,
Mr. Blake Carrington there Counsel?

Let me remind you
that the opening statement...

is an outline of the evidence
you're going to present.

It is not a closing argument.

Very well, Your Honor.

In that case, I have
nothing more to say... for now.

Thank you.

Mr. Laird.

As you know, ladies and gentlemen...

the district attorney's office
gets to present its case first...

and then the defense presents.

And so we hope that you
will withhold judgment in your minds...

until you hear both sides

both sides.

Now, what we will try to prove to you...

is that the death ofTed Dinard...

was an accident an accident.

Yes, it is true that
Blake Carrington was present...

when that unfortunate death took place...

but that death was not
intentionally precipitated...

by any action on the part
of Blake Carrington.

His intent and his only intent

was to protect his young son.

Now, as this case develops...

we are going to see
that Blake Carrington...

had a strong and lifelong love...

for his young son.

Oh, he knew that he had gone awry...

but he also knew at the same time...

that he was well on the road
to a normal and manly life.

Now, on the evening
of the unfortunate accident...

Blake Carrington entered his home...

and learned to his horror and disgust...

that Ted Dinard was present in his home.

Thinking of his son,
and thinking only

only to protect and save him
from a life of shame...

the defendant went upstairs
to see his son, to talk to him...

and there found Ted Dinard...

with his arms around his son.

Mr. Carrington stepped into the room...

and commanded Ted Dinard to leave.

At that point, ladies and gentlemen...

as the evidence is going to show you

and I'm sure you'll be convinced
at the end of this trial

that the tragic death ofTed Dinard
which then occurred...

was an accident an accident

which Blake Carrington did not

did not intentionally bring about.

Thank you.

Steven, I know
you're just sitting there.

Damn. Answer me.
He's all right.

Don't try to pacify me, Jeff.

Well, I'm part of the family.

Seems to me you made it pretty clear
what you think of my father.

You don't like him,
and you never did like him.

If you ask me, you'd be as happy as a lot
of other people to see him go under.

Steven, answer me.

Well, Mrs. Gunnerson
will be disappointed.

None of us are eating
very much again tonight.

Oh, Fallon, have you
spoken to your brother?

Yes. I talked to him a little while ago
on the telephone.

How is he? Is he all right?

Yeah, he sounded all right.

I called him a couple of times.
No answer.

Blake, I don't know if
this is the time or place...

but I've been wanting to talk to you
about something that's on my mind.

It's probably a good a time as any.

Now, you and I, we haven't been
getting along all that well recently.

I've said some things to you
that were a little rough.

Father. Soninlaw.
It's a classic situation.

Forget it. What is it you wanna
talk to me about?

Well, I was at the
office today, and, uh,

I heard some things that
made me a little nervous.

About your business.

There's that board meeting on Friday.
Yes. What about it?

Well, there'll be a decision made on that
bank loan, Mitsukawa in Honolulu.

And you're not going to be there...

and a few of your directors are going to
take advantage of ityou're not being there.

Blake owns 70% of Denver Carrington
stock. How can they take advantage?

Well, they can. That is, unless
I'm not there to stop them.

But I've arranged with Andy Laird to set
that board meeting for Friday morning.

You see, the judge is going to recess.
He's got a doctor's appointment.

I thank you anyway.

And I'll be there, and I'll stop them.
You can be sure of that.

Give me a moment.

Hello, Steven.

Can we talk?

Steven, look at me.

I can't.

Miss Robbins...

would you tell us, please,
what your occupation is...

and by whom
you are presently employed?

I'm a downstairs maid.
I work for Mr. Carrington

Mr. Blake Carringtonand I have for
the last 12 years.

I see. Now, on the night
of November 12...

were you present in the Carrington house,
and if you were, where were you?

What were you doing?

I was in the downstairs vestibule,
just off the main hall.

I was talking with Joseph.
He's our majordomo.

Uh, don't you mean butler,
Miss Robbins?

No. There is a butler, Gerald.
Joseph is the majordomo.

Well, that's very interesting.

II didn't realize that people
American people

had majordomos anymore.

As a matter of fact, I'm an American.
I don't even know what a majordomo is.

What exactly is a majordomo, Miss Robbins?

Um, he's the head, uh, administrative head
of the household.

Uh, chief retainer. Well, that's a
very precise definition, Miss Robbins.

Did you look that up in a book once?
No. I got it from Joseph.

I'm sure you did.

Miss Robbins,
it is your testimony then...

that on the night in question,
at approximately 10:30...

you were in the house when Mr. Carrington,
the defendant, arrived home.

Is that true?
Yes, it is.

What happened when he entered
the house, Miss Robbins?

Well, he asked who was home...

and we told him Steven was home
with a friend ofhis.

With Mr. Dinard.

What was Mr. Carrington's reaction
when you mentioned this?

About Mr. Dinard, I mean.

Did he say anything?
Was he, uh, overjoyed?

Was he angry, agitated?

I'd like to remind you,
Miss Robbins that you

are testifying in this
court under sworn oath.

Yes, he was angry.

And, yes, he said something.

He said, "I'll kill him.''

II'm sorry, Miss Robbins, would you repeat
your answer so the courtroom can hear it?

Now what did Mr. Carrington say?

The witness will please speak up.

He said, "I'll kill him.''

Mr. Carrington said,
referring to the deceased, "I'll kill him.''

"I'll kill him. '"

Well, what did he do then,
Miss Robbins?

Um, he, uh, ran toward the stairs.

Was he angry?
Was he very angry, Miss Robbins?

Yes.
Yes.

Thank you, Miss Robbins.

In the sensational
Blake Carrington murder trial...

the day's last witness was Ed Cleves,
a driller who worked with Steven Carrington.

It was like I told 'em in there, you know?
Uh, I saw this Stevie Carrington.

He's the son of Blake Carrington,
and he was involved with the deceased.

That's what they said in there.
Ted Dinard. Well, I saw them.

I went over to Meadsburg to have
a little supper with my wife, Nell.

You almost ready?
And we were sitting in the restaurant...

and, uh, there we saw them, there they were.

They weren't ordering or anything.
There were sitting, looking at each other.

Every once in a while, the one guy
would touch the other guy's face.

And pretty soon they were holding hands.
I mean, they were

They were acting like a couple of f

What do you call 'em now, um, gays?
Yeah, that's it. Gays.

We'll be back in a minute
with other local news...

including our ongoing investigation of how
inflation continues to

Yeah. Did you listen to that?

Damn idiot thinks he's a movie star.

Leave it to Ed Cleves. He probably
volunteered as a damn witness.

Why are they dragging up
all this stuff about Steven?

Well WhatJake wants to prove
is that he was a homosexual...

and that Laird's line about him being

seduced and becoming a
homosexual is all bull.

He isn't.
Huh?

Steven isn't a homosexual.
At least not entirely.

Claudia,
how do you know that?

He told me.
He told you.

When was this?
One day.

I mean, one night. Remember the night
we had dinner at the Carringtons'?

I went into the library, and he was there
and we talked.

Seems like a hell of an odd thing for him
to bring up the first time you'd met.

Are you all right?
You look like you're upset.

I am. It's what you said
about these lawyers.

I mean, they're turning this whole trial
into some kind of sporting event.

It's not a trial.
I know that.

But that's their job.

And if I know Jake Dunham,
he hasn't even started yet.

Krystle, stay with me tonight. Please.

Blake, when I came back, it was to be
near you to support you.

I was honest then,
and I'll be honest now.

I'm not ready to share your bed again.
Not yet.

A lot has to change between us.

We have a lot toto work out.

Is it because you think
I purposely killed that boy?

It was certainly not purposefully.

But you do think I killed him, don't you?

Blake, I don't know what to think.

All I know is is that
the night I left you...

you were in a terrible state,
and for that I feel guilty.

Look, what I'm wrestling with right now
is not your guilt, but mine.

Maybe if I had been here with you,
none of this would've happened.

Look, let's let's just
get through this thing.

Then we'll figure out
what our lives are gonna be.

All right?

I'll walk you to your room.

Blake.
Yes?

Your board of directors,
they moved the meeting up.

They did? To when?
This afternoon, 2:00.

Damn.

Blake, they're starting again.
We need you back in the courtroom.

They're moving in on me, Andrew.

They've changed the
time of that meeting to

this afternoon. They know
I can't be there then.

There's nothing we can do about that now.
We have to get back.

Blake, are you coming?

Fallon, you and Jeff get in there.

You come with me.
Michael, close this door.

Don't let anyone in, you understand?
Yes, sir.

Andrew, I wanna call a
stockholders' meeting. When?

Here, right now. I want Krystle to
represent me at that board meeting.

I vote all my shares
in favor of that proposition.

I want you to activate the papers
I asked you to draw up.

Okay. I'll make arrangements for
the delivery to Krystle immediately.

Then can we get back into the courtroom?
The judge is gonna come unglued.

Yes. You get in there.
You get me five minutes.

Tell him I'm not feeling well. Tell
him anything. Okay, but make it fast.

Blake, I can't do that.
I can't go to that meeting.

You've got to. The sharks are
beginning to circle.

They think that I'm weak enough so that they
can slip in and chew me up...

but you're going to stop them.
How?

By figuring out who the ringleader is...

then cutting him down before
he even knows what's happening.

But I don't No, no. No questions.Just
listen. Listen carefully.

I may not have another chance
to go over this.

Keep your eye on Moore.

Now, if he calls for
a vote on the Maris issue...

then you move to table it
for a feasibility study.

That'll cut him off at the pass.

Would you state your full name
for the court, please.

Fallon Carrington Colby.

Mrs. Colby...

what do you do for a living?

I don't work.
Are you a housewife? Do you keep house?

Cooking, cleaning, laundry?
Things like that?

I'm a wife. I'm also here as
a hostile witness for the prosecution.

I believe that's the phrase?
Yes, that's the phrase.

Mrs. Colby, on the night
Ted Dinard died...

you were in the hallway outside Steven
Carrington's room, is that correct? Yes.

And the door to the room was open?
Yes, it was.

Tell us exactly what you observed,
if anything, through that open door.

There were three people in the room.
My father, my brother Steven and Ted Dinard.

May I have People's five, please.

Is this the man you saw with your father
and your brother, Mrs. Colby?

Your Honor, I object to the introduction
of that photograph...

since its probative value is outweighed by
the danger of undue prejudice.

Mr. Dunham, is there any reason why you've
introduced that photograph as evidence?

Yes, Your Honor, there is. I contacted
Mr. Dinard's parents in North Dakota.

I asked them for a live photo of
a living young man, their son.

They refused to send one
to me or to this court.

I'm going to have to
overrule your objection, Mr. Laird.

I'll repeat the question. Is this the man
you saw with your father and your brother?

Yes.

For the record, the witness identifies
the body ofTed Dinard.

Now, what happened next
in Steven's room, Mrs. Colby?

My father was very upset.

Yes, your father was upset.
What happened then?

He was ordering Mr. Dinard
out of the room. There was a scuffle...

and Mr. Dinard
began to push my father.

Wasn't it your father that
did the pushing, Mrs. Colby?

No. Mr. Dinard pushed my father.

Mrs. Colby, I have a copy
of the police incident report.

Didn't you tell the police officer
who interviewed you that night...

that your father pushed
or struck Ted Dinard?

Things were happening very fast.
I don't know what I told the police.

I see, but you remember it
all more clearly now, is that right?

Please tell us what
happened then, Mrs. Colby.

Ted Dinard took a step back.
I don't know why he did, he just did.

You see, my brother was packing
and there were some boxes in the room.

So when he took a step back he tripped over
one of the boxes, and he accidentally fell.

He hit his head on the fender.
The fireplace fender.

Well, that's very mysterious, Mrs. Colby.

In your original report to the police...

you didn't tell them that
Ted Dinard took a step back.

You didn't tell them that
he tripped over a box.

You didn't tell them that
he accidentally fell and hit his head.

Isn't that true, Mrs. Colby?
I don't know.

I have no further questions
for this witness.

All right, we have
two important issues to discuss here.

The Mitsukawa bank loan and the loan
with the Maris Company. Is that right?

Mr. Natale?

I feel that what you're
going to press for here...

is a, uh, postponement of the Mitsukawa loan
the repaying of that loan.

What I'm here for, Mr. Natale...

is to press for a postponement on any
decision until my husband can be present.

It's a postponement that could be...
dangerous. The postponement, that is.

Why, Mr. Wells?

So you could precipitate a default
and then take the company yourself?

What are you talking about?
Do you know what she's talking about?

They do.

I have a document here
signed by Blake Carrington...

which gives me the power to remove you.

I hereby exercise that power.

Don't think just because
Blake Carrington isn't

here that I won't be
keeping an eye on you.

Every one of you.

Mr. Carrington, let me remind you that
you are under oath...

and obligated to answer Mr. Dunham's
questions fully and completely.

Mr. Carrington, would you please tell us
when and where you first met the deceased.

I met Ted Dinard in New York City
about a year and a half ago.

And how did you meet?
We were at a party.

What kind of party?
II don't understand the question.

Well, was it a gay party?
Gay not as in happy but as in homosexual.

The intent of the question was not to amuse.

The intent was to get a direct answer
from the witness.

No, it was not a gay party
in either of those senses.

ItIt was after an art gallery opening,
and we both just happened to be there.

I see. You met and you became friends.
Is that true?

Yes.

Close friends who decided to
take an apartment together.

Is that a fact, Mr. Carrington?
Yes. That's a fact.

Mr. Carrington,
did you and Mr. Dinard...

become lovers
in this apartment?

Yes, we did.
You were lovers.

For how long were you lovers?

About a year.

About a year.

All right.

Now, let's jump to the last night
you saw the deceased alive.

He was in your room. Now, it's already been
established that your father...

entered your room and found you
together embracing

We were saying goodbye
to each other.

Ted had decided to leave
and go back to New York.

Mr. Carrington, you will speak when
you are asked a direct question.

Mr. Dunham has not as yet asked a question.

As I was saying,
it's already been established...

that the accusedyour father entered your
room and found you together embracing...

and that he ordered the deceased,
Mr. Dinard, to leave the room.

Is that true?

What he said was
for Ted to let go of me.

Was your father upset when
he told Mr. Dinard to let go of you?

Yes. HHe was angry.
Yes?

He was furious.
Now, Mr. Carrington...

would you tell us, please,
exactly what happened next?

Well, then my father moved
He moved towards Ted.

Wouldn't "lunge'' be a more accurate word?
Did he lunge at him?

He moved very quickly. And your friend,
the deceased, did he see him coming?

Yes.
Did he do anything?

No. You're saying then that
he simply stood there...

while your father moved
very quickly towards him?

Uh, yes.

All right, Mr. Carrington,
tell us what happened next.

Uh, mymy father pushed him.

HeHe struck him.
He struck him, Mr. Carrington?

Yes.
He struck him how, Mr. Carrington?

Did he strike him hard?
Yes.

And the deceased, Mr. Carrington...

Did he try to
protect himself in any way?

Or did he simply stand there where he was,
with his arms at his side...

HeHe just stood there,
and I tried to pull my I tried

No, no.
Please. Louder and clearer, Mr. Carrington,

so the jury
can hear you. Please.

Look, II've told you everything that
I can. Can I get out of here?

No! You can't. Now repeat your answer

This is a court of law,
Mr. Carrington.

You will do as the deputy
district attorney has asked you.

Now, please answer the question again.

He stood there, okay?

But your sister, Mr. Carrington,
has testified that Mr. Dinard was the one...

who pushed, who shoved, who lunged,
who attacked at your father.

Isn't that true? Isn't that what your sister
has told this court?

My sister lied.

She... She lied.
