All language subtitles for The Colbys - 01x16 - My Fathers House

Last time, on "The Colbys"...

How can your son be a Colby

when the man you claim
to be his father was sterile?

Your Honor...

I'm his father.

Jeff's my son.

All my life I thought I had
to live up to you...

That I could never be
the son you deserve.

Not anymore.
You may be Jeff's father,

but to me, you're nothing.

Haven't you done enough damage?

I'll kick in every door in this
house until you listen to me!

You used to love her,
didn't you?

I know Jeff is our son...

but I'm still with Roger.

Before you showed up,
at least I had...

At least I had the fantasy
of having a father.

I used to dream
about meeting you again,

but that dream has
turned into a nightmare.

Whatever you feel about it,

I'm your father, like it or not.

I've lived most of my life

without a mother or a father.

I don't need one now.

- What about Miles?
- Miles?

Your brother!
You're the strong one.

He needs all the help
he can get now.

He's lost his wife to you,

and now he's lost his position

as Jason's son and heir to you.

My God, what do you think
this is doing to him?

After all, we are family now.

Same father,
different mother, of course.

Yours is the whore.

Jeff!

- Jeff!
- Jeff! Oh!

No, Fallon, you'll go over, too!

Oh, dear God!

Jeff!

Do something, Miles!
For God's sake, do something!

Donald! Donald!
Can you hear me, man?

Yes, sir! What is it?

Get a long rope,
and someone to help! Fast!

Hello?

Sable, I've got to see you.
We've got to talk.

Be careful!

Can you get to him?

How is he?

Jeff... you all right?

Is he all right?

Yeah, yeah, he looks okay!

Drop that other rope down!

Don't look down.
Trust me to do this?

Everything's secure.
Let's pull him up!

If you feel up to it,
I thought we might talk.

I don't think we've got
anything to talk about.

Maybe not.

Guess we haven't had much to say
to each other for a long time.

All the more reason
to talk now...

about the divorce.

Yes. I thought you'd be...

getting around to that.

We have to be realistic.

- We can't live like this.
- No, you're right.

Finding out that your husband

has fathered a child
with your own sister

is no way to live.

Sable, I wish I could...

Could what?
Explain it? Justify it?

- Make it easier for you.
- Oh, please. Spare me.

I suffered quite enough
humiliation in the courtroom.

I can't stand pity,
especially from you.

Look whatever
you think about me,

you have to understand

I never wanted any of this.
I'm sorry.

Sorry?

You don't know the meaning
of the word,

but you will.

You want a divorce?

I'll speak to Arthur Cates
with all due haste.

Now, please go.

Look, I...

For what it's worth, thanks.

Save it. I'd have done
the same for a stray dog.

Well, I can see
that nothing's changed.

Not a damn thing.

Stop it, you two,
for God's sake, stop...

Stay out of it,
will you, Fallon?

This is strictly between my...

brother and me.

One way or the other,
we have to settle it.

I'll be looking forward
to it, brother.

And another thing...

Next time you come crawling
through Fallon's bedroom window,

I'll be waiting there for you.

- Stop it, both of you!
- Sure, I'll stop.

But I'm not finished with you.

Or you.

Hey there, young fella.

- You like horses?
- Mm-hmm.

- You know how to ride?
- Uh-mm.

We'll have to fix that. We've got
a whole stable full of horses.

Ought to find one of them is
about right for a man your size.

Come over here.

Yes, sir.

Well, you've got manners, boy,

but you don't call me "sir."

It's time we got acquainted.
Don't you know who I am?

Sure, you're Mr. Colby.

I'm your grandfather.

My grandfather's Blake.

Yeah. You've got two
of us now... Blake and me.

Do you belong to my
mommy or my daddy?

Well, your daddy's... my son.

That makes me your granddad.

Your granddad is late for work!

Can I see, Grandpa?

Listen.

Maybe we'll get you
a watch like that someday.

L.B.?

L.B., you know you're not
supposed to be down here.

Oh, it's all right. He's just
getting to know his granddad.

What is it?
What happened to you?

Ask Miles.

Come on, L.B., your mommy's
looking for you.

Now, you be a good boy

and hold on to Mrs. Wrigley's
hand at the zoo, okay?

- Okay, Mommy.
- We'll have a fine time.

I should have taken him myself.

You can't be with him
every minute of the day.

It's just that every time
I'm away from him now,

I can't help worrying.

He's in very good hands
with Irene.

I know, I know.
I don't know why I'm so tense.

Well, it's been quite a morning.

I'll never forget
that look on Miles' face.

What are we going to do?

We're going to get married
as soon as we can.

Fly to Denver this weekend
and make all the plans.

Denver? Why Denver?

- Because that's our home.
- That was our home.

Darling, that's where
the wedding should be...

In your father's house.

That's where we were planning
on being remarried before.

I don't want it to be
in that house,

because of what happened
the last time.

Oh, it won't happen again. You're
over that problem with Adam.

It's not Adam. It's that house.

I know it sounds superstitious,

but I won't go
through that again.

I can still see
those women dressing me,

chattering and pulling at me...
It's terrible.

All right.

We'll have the wedding
somewhere else,

but not here.

Jeff.

I found you this year
after so long,

and you've found your family.

We're finally
right where we should be.

These people don't mean
anything to me...

To us.

Blake and Krystle,
they're our family.

But this is your home now.
This is your family.

I want us to be married here,
in your father's house.

Darling...

I love you,

and I'd do anything for you,
you know that.

But this isn't my home.

And I'll never think of
Jason Colby as my father.

I will not be married
in this house.

Full glare will only...

Come in.

Sable, I've got to talk to you.

Close the door.

Thank you.

This is important
for both of us.

Yes, well, we have so much
more in common now...

- including my husband.
- No.

Believe me,
it was the same for me.

I know how you feel...

To find out in court
that Jeff is Jason's son.

It hit me as hard as it hit you.

Frankie, I'm not stupid.
Of course, you knew all along.

That's why you stayed away. It wasn't
out of pride, it was out of shame.

Yes. I was ashamed.

I was unfaithful to my husband.

And you were afraid
that I'd find out

what you'd been doing
with my husband all these years.

That's not true! Jason and I...

It was over in one night.

I trusted you.

I opened my heart and my home

to you and your son.
And how do you thank me?

By undermining my entire family.

You ruined my son's
marriage and mine,

you humiliated me in public...

Stop. Can't you at least
be honest with yourself?

All of this is your doing.
You wanted blood,

well, you got it.

Only now we're all going
to have to pay for it.

That's good, Frankie.

Very good.

Did your years in diplomatic
circles teach you that...

That the best defense
is a strong attack?

Well, it won't work.
Not this time.

Not this time.

I can see right through you,

and I won't let
you ruin my life.

That's what you want, isn't it?

I want nothing from you.

Ah, now that is exactly
what you're going to get.

You will never have Jason,

or anything that goes with him.

Now, get out.

Get out!

I feel sorry for you.

You have everything and nothing.

I'll stop by the stables
right after supper. Goodbye.

Yes?

Sure. Send her in.

Hey, what a nice surprise.

- I'm not interrupting?
- No, no, no.

Your timing's perfect.
Here, sit down.

I just now called the stable.

By tonight, we'll have a horse

for that son of yours
to start on.

We had quite a talk
this morning.

He's a good boy. I like him.

I don't know
if he likes me, but he...

he likes my watch.

I'm so glad he took to you.

I just wish his father...

Yeah.

So do I. I'm...

not one of Jeff's
favorite people right now.

Give him time.

He's not seeing things
very clearly.

Jason, would you object
to us being married here?

- In L.A.?
- In your home.

- Is that what Jeff wants?
- It's what I want.

Jeff wants us
to be married in Denver.

Why are you
fighting him on that?

Because Denver's wrong for him.

His home's here.

Jeff's been yearning
for a family all his life.

For years, he worshiped
a father he never knew!

Yeah, I sure took that
away from him.

But you gave him a real father...

Alive!

A man he could count on.
I have to make him see that!

I wish you luck, honey.

I'd say you've got
your work cut out for you.

In my considered opinion,

we're looking at
very strong grounds.

That means a healthy settlement.

- How healthy?
- Robust.

Without going
into the fine print,

you should see a large chunk
of Jason's shares

in Colby Enterprises...
As much as half.

A sizeable cash settlement,

real estate including
the beach house,

the Palm Springs house,
the flat in Paris...

What about my home?
The house, here?

Put that out of
your mind, Sable.

It's not community property.

Jason's father
gave him that house

before you were married
and you're not entitled to it.

We can ask for it, can't we?

Even if Jason wanted to,
he can't give it to you.

Andrew Colby's will stipulated

that the Colby house was
irrevocable Colby property.

"Irrevocable"?

Never to be sold
or bargained away.

Jason and Conny own that house jointly.
Equally.

If you go after it,
you may never get a divorce.

Old Andrew considered that house

to be the heart
of the Colby family.

Well, we shall just have to

strike at the heart, won't we?

The very heart.

I tried to explain it to you.

You don't owe me
any explanations, Daddy.

What happened,
happened a long time ago.

I'm a big girl now.

And you weren't shocked
in that courtroom?

Yes, I was.

And... a little hurt.

- Sweetheart...
- No.

My feelings toward you
and Jeff won't change.

But I do worry about Miles.

I told you.
I tried to talk to him.

- He won't listen.
- Well, put yourself in his shoes.

One day, you're
Jason Colby's only son,

the next, you have a
brother... A half-brother.

- He's still my son.
- He's disappointed.

He loved you and now
he thinks he's lost you.

Well, he hasn't.
He ought to know that.

Well, maybe he should,
but he lost his wife, too...

To Jeff. Daddy, he hates Jeff.

And now it turns out
they're brothers.

My God, I'm amazed he
hasn't snapped before this.

I can't rewrite
the past for him.

But you can control the present.

Please don't let Jeff and
Fallon be married in our house.

Jeff is my son. He has the right
to be married in my house.

Miles is your son, too.
What about his feelings?

Look, Jeff and Fallon
are going to be married.

The whole family
has to accept that.

- It's the only way to help Miles.
- Help him?

If we deal with this
realistically, he will, too.

But if we pretend
it doesn't exist,

try to sweep the wedding
off into a corner someplace,

it'll only hurt him more
in the long run.

Darling...

I'm doing the best I can do.
That's all I can do.

Sometimes...

being fair can be
the unfairest thing of all.

- Jason...
- You look beautiful.

Thank you.
Do you think that perhaps...

- Did you talk to Cates yet?
- Yes. At length.

And?

He's preparing a proposal
for the settlement.

That's what you wanted.

What I want doesn't
mean much anymore.

I think that I should warn you,

Arthur has advised me
to be merciless.

He wants this divorce
as costly as possible.

I don't doubt that.

But he's asking for half
of everything.

- You're entitled to that.
- I knew you'd say that.

Arthur thought
you'd put up a fight,

but I knew that you wouldn't.

You know me better.

28 years' worth.

Anyway, apart from
the Colby Collection

and the house,
everything's negotiable.

The house? Which house?

This house, of course!

This house isn't
community property.

That's up to you.

Arthur says that you can
declare it community property.

Darling, I've lived here
all my married life.

We brought our children up
in this house.

Naturally, I want
to remain here.

It isn't a question
of what you want.

I can't give you this house!

- Can't, or won't?
- This is the Colby house!

My father built it!
My granddad bought the land.

It isn't mine to give!

Hell, Conny owns half of it,
you know that.

Oh, then we have a problem.

I'm not thrilled at the idea
of a divorce,

but I'm damned if I'm going to
be kicked out of my own home.

I want this house.

I suggest that you
talk to Conny,

use some of that famous
Jason Colby charm.

It worked on my sister.
Thank you.

We have to discuss this.

Yes, oh, darling, I'm sorry,
I'm already late.

Late for what?
Where are you going, anyway?

I'm going to the gallery.
There's a private showing.

And after that...

Well, that, it seems, is no
longer any of your business.

Good night, Jason.
Good luck with Conny.

Got a minute?

Hi! Have you talked to Jeff yet?

Oh, are you kidding?

He won't even let his
little boy talk to me.

That L.B. He came
into my study this morning

and I thought, I'd...
Well, I missed out with Jeff,

maybe I've got a chance with his son.
He's my grandson.

Ah, you still have
a chance with Jeff.

No, no. He's hanging onto
the way he remembers Phillip.

He doesn't want
any part of me as a father.

That's my fault.

I protected Phillip too much.
We all have.

And now it's...
coming between you and Jeff.

We've just got to
face up to the truth.

You want to open that door?

I have to, for Jeff's sake.

Now, what was it you wanted
to talk to me about?

Okay.

Would you sell me
your half of this house?

Sell you...?

What in God's name for?

Sable wants it. It's her...
price for the divorce.

She doesn't quit, does she?

She'll have us
out on the street next.

She raised the kids here.
It's her home.

It is our home!

Now, you better
teach that lady a lesson.

I don't treat family like that.

She is not family, not after all
the dirty tricks she played on us.

- Conny, I'm...
- Why does she want this?

She knows she can't
have this house,

not while I'm still alive.

I'll tell her.

I was supposed
to "charm" you into selling.

Not a chance, kid. Not a chance.

But Jason, you watch out
for that woman.

She will strip you clean.

Tell you the truth, I was
hoping you'd turn me down.

- Yes?
- Harold Jessup, please...

Oh, Harold!
Uh, this is Constance Colby.

I wa... yes, yes,
I'm fine, thank you.

- I need a favor.
- Well, just name it.

I want Mrs. Colby...
Mrs. Sable Colby, followed.

Did you say, "followed"?

Yes. Morning, noon,
night, whatever.

You'll find her at the
Colby Collections now.

All right. I'll put
a man on it right away.

Yes, yes, of course,
your best man.

Oh, he'll be my best man, all right.
Don't worry about that.

And I can promise you, no one
will find out a thing about this.

Harold, um...
I won't forget this.

And neither will you, Sable.

Neither will you.

I'm sorry.

Something I said?
Or perhaps, didn't say.

It's not you, Zach,
it's me. I've never...

I've never been
unfaithful to Jason.

Pets are faithful, Sabella...

Blindly, obediently.

Among the higher species, however,
fidelity has to be earned.

I'd say Jason no longer
deserves yours.

- Don't you want to be here?
- Yes.

Then you must let go... of Jason,
the past, all your worries.

Think only of here
and now and us.

That's part of my problem.
Letting go.

- Let me help you.
- It's not that easy.

It's this mess
with my sister and Jason.

I cannot stop thinking about it.

Yes, I can imagine.

If only she hadn't
moved back to Los Angeles,

but with her here,
moving in the same circles...

Can't you see?

I could meet her
at any moment, any place.

I'd feel so much better
if she were

back in London, out of my life.

And out of Jason's.

Jason and I are through.

He can go where he likes,
see whom he pleases,

but my sister will always be

a thorn in my flesh.

Your sister's husband

is with the British
Foreign Office.

Yes. But what...

Well, I have, as it happens,
a modicum of influence

in diplomatic circles.

Your reach extends
to the British Foreign Office?

And beyond, when necessary.

You are the most
extraordinary man.

Oh, if you could
help me in this way...

I make no promises, but...

let me see what I can do, huh?

I would be eternally grateful.

I don't want your gratitude.

- I do want you.
- Oh, Zach.

I've dreamed of this moment.

Zach, I can't.

I would be very surprised
if this were easy for you.

The sophisticated Sable Colby

behaving like a... virgin
on her first encounter.

Not an altogether
displeasing image.

- You're not angry?
- Disappointed, yes.

Angry? Only if you said
you didn't want me.

I can't say that.
I could never say that.

I'm afraid.

Please, may we take things
very slowly?

On one condition.

You spend the night here
in my bed.

- What?
- Alone.

But why?

Because I don't want you going
back to his, house tonight

because...

Because I've always wanted
to have breakfast with you.

How do you always manage
to say the right thing?

Then you will stay?

Why not? I have no one
to answer to anymore.

You sure you can trust me?

Trust you?
I'll show you how much.

I won't even lock the door.

On second thought,
lock the door.

Sable?

Sable...

Come in.

Good morning.

- And how did you sleep?
- Soundly.

- Good.
- And you?

My guest room
is pleasant, but...

lonely.

I was wondering,

how will you explain
your absence to Jason?

Jason gets no explanations.
Not anymore.

Anyway, I can't believe
you care what he thinks.

How right you are.

Hmm. What is it,

this... grudge
you have against him?

He has you.

That's flattering,
but I know you too well.

There's something else.
Why won't you tell me?

Because, my lovely Sabella,

then you would know what I know.

There must be some secrets
to keep you... interested.

And now I'm late for the office.

What about our breakfast?

I have an important call to make

to... London...?

Thank you, Zach.
I can't thank you enough.

Oh, yes, you can, if you try.

But for now,
let's say you owe me.

I'll collect. I always do.

Well, "mi casa es tu casa."

Make yourself comfortable.

The houseboy
will fix you breakfast.

Wait a minute.
You're sending me where?

I need someone in the
New York office I can trust.

No!

No, I won't do it.

You want to get rid
of me that badly?

I should think you'd appreciate a
chance to get away from all this.

And leave the field wide open
for your number-one son?

He's not gonna crowd me
out of here, too. No way.

Look, you've been a real help
here these last few months.

I can use you
in New York right now.

Why are you pushing so hard
to get me out of town?

Miles, I can't help what
happened with Jeff and Fallon,

but I can keep you from
having to live with it.

Go to New York.
Stay there a while.

Even if I wanted
to leave LA, I can't.

You forgot already. I'm still
a suspect in Mahoney's death.

Jessup is working on that.
Be patient.

Patient? Damn it, Dad, I may
be facing a murder charge

and you're not doing
a thing about it!

This has to be handled
just right.

Leave it to Jessup.
He'll clear it up!

You've got to trust me.

I care about you.
Don't you see that?

No, I don't. I need some help.

And if you won't give it to me,
I'll find someone who will.

Don't interfere in this.

As far as I'm concerned,
this meeting is over.

I'm on your side.

Put me through to Zach Powers
right away, will you?

This is Miles Colby.

I'm sorry, Mr. Colby.
Mr. Powers has not arrived yet.

Look, when do you ex...

Forget it, just forget it.

- Good morning, Mr. Powers.
- Good morning, Lena.

Will you get me the British
Foreign Office in London, please?

I want to speak to
the foreign minister.

Yes, sir.
Oh, Mr. Colby just phoned.

- Jason?
- No, sir. Miles Colby.

Miles?

He sounded very upset and he
wouldn't leave a message.

All right, thank you.
The phone call, please.

I need to see Zach Powers.

Mother...?

Miles!

Oh, Miles, please wait!

Oh...!

Conny? Henderson
said you wanted to see me.

Oh, yes, if you have
a minute or two.

Please. Sit down.

I wanted to talk
to you about Phillip.

What about him?

I tried to make Phillip
a hero for you.

We all did.

It seemed the right thing
to do at the time,

but now it is not fair
to you or Jason.

I heard enough of this in court.
I don't need to hear any more.

Conny, I never met him.

Just some... some
photographs and stories.

And now, he's my uncle,
not my father.

Okay, I can deal
with that, I think.

But I'm used to him.

My picture of him...
don't change that.

But it's not true.

Can't you let me keep something?

I lied to you the same way
he lied to us.

- What do you mean?
- Well, he...

He embezzled
from Colby Enterprises.

He forged his name. That's why my
father cut him out of the will.

Why would he steal?
He had money!

He gambled,
and he covered his losses

with company money.
Jason found out about it.

He paid Phillip's debts
out of his own pocket.

- Did my mother know?
- Just my father, Jason and me.

Your mother never did know

why Phillip...
All of a sudden...

Got it in his head
to go overseas.

We never told her.

So that's what he was like?

I loved him.

I tried to make you love him.

It was wrong. And I'm sorry.

I don't want to protect
Phillip anymore.

Not if it keeps you
from your real father.

Jason loves you.

Don't... please, please
don't turn away from him.

I'm glad you told me.

Singapore?

But you've just been assigned here.
Can they do that?

Not without a fight. I'm taking
the next flight to London.

Either the foreign minister's
gone back on his word

or someone's been meddling.

Oh, Roger.

I hope this trial
hasn't hurt your career.

I don't know, but I'll find out.

Will you come with me?

Maybe I should stay here,

considering the way things
stand between Jeff and me.

To say nothing of
the way things stand

between you and Jason Colby.

Grandpa?

Just down the hall, gentlemen.

These are the beds to go.

Mr. Colby wants
a king-size bed in here now.

Hey! What are you doing here?

Nothing.

Hey. Isn't that the kid I
read about in the newspaper?

You know, the one whose old man just got
half a billion dollars dumped in his lap?

I think you'd better run
along and not get underfoot.

- Please try to hurry.
- Yes, ma'am.

Half a billion dollars. Wow.

* First kiss, near miss*/i>

* Never thought
I'd be feeling like this*/i>

* Don't know what to do*/i>

?'Cause the feeling's
brand new.?/i>

Monica.

- How did you know?
- Your perfume.

I remember that.

I have to rely a lot on memory.

How did I do?

It's... it's me.

I didn't know you sculpted.

I did it back before
I lost my sight.

This is the first time since.

What's on your mind?

Wayne, I want to...

It's about the promotional tour.

Look, I don't want to argue,
not here.

No, no, I've been thinking,

maybe a tour is the right move.

I know what it must have taken
for you to change your mind,

but I've been doing
some thinking myself

and I need to do
a whole lot more

before I make
any more commitments.

Thinking about what?

Whether there's going to be
a tour for you and me.

May I ask where you were
last night, all night?

No. You may not.

Don't play games with me, lady.
You are still my wife.

Only technically.

I remind you that you
left my bed.

From now on,
I go where I please,

when I please
with whom I please.

- Now look...
- Our only common ground,

is our divorce. Now, did you
ask Conny about the house?

Conny isn't selling her half of the house.
Not to me, not to anyone.

Did you tell her that it's part
of my price for the divorce?

Look,
I'll buy you another house.

I'll build you one...

An exact replica of this one,
if that's what you want,

But I cannot
give you this house.

Jason. You know that I
always insist on originals.

I despise fakes, whether it's
art, jewelry or husbands.

Darling. This is my home.
This is where I'm staying.

Be reasonable, Sable!

I am being perfectly reasonable.

I get the house,
you get the divorce.

Sable, I have never...

Mr. Colby! Mr. Colby!

Yes, Henderson, what is it?

Please excuse me, sir. It's the
little boy... young Master Colby.

What about the boy?

Well, we can't find
him anywhere, sir!

Irene!

Enid?

Irene!

- What is it, Jason?
- L.B.'s missing.

- All right, what happened?
- I left him in the play room

while I went to see
to his supper and bath,

and when I came back
to get him, he was...

He was gone!

Gone? L.B.?

Oh, my God.

Mr. Colby, I'm so sorry!

- We've looked everywhere.
- Well, look again!

He's got to be somewhere...
The house, the grounds.

Have Henderson get the whole staff
together. We'll look till we find him.

- It can't be.
- Don't worry, we'll find him.

- You don't think that...
- Dear Lord. The moving men.

The mov... What about them?

When they saw L.B., one of them
said something like,

"All that money..." The way
they looked at the boy...

Oh, God, Jeff.
It's happened again.

He's been kidnapped!
