Original subtitles

Igot you out of prison because I was hoping

that we could get back at my brother Ben

for what he's done to us.

We did fail with the district attorney.

But now you've gotta go away,

you've got to start a whole new life for yourself.

Let me take it from here.

You mean just walk out

and let Alexis and Ben get away with it?

You know how dangerous they are. Steer clear of them.

After what they've done to me?

You don't know how I've waited to face those two.

Caress, you're a very intelligent woman,

but you've made some bad choices.

Now, please take my advice.

Stay away from them.

You're right, Blake.

I'll do exactly as you say.

- Hi. - Hi.

Come on in.

- You're impressed? - I certainly am.

The apartment belongs to a friend. He's letting me use it for a while.

He's a nice guy.

He's very wealthy, very successful.

I drove for him once and we got to be friends.

Just like us.

You might say that I have a way with my former employers.

Especially when they're bright and beautiful.

And give you confidential information?

You're talking about your father needing $50 million, right?

Yes.

Well, if you're wondering what I did with that information,

I didn't do anything with it.

Listen. I don't give a damn that you're Blake Carrington's daughter.

All I care about is that you're you.

That's all that's important. Nothing else.

Cassie.

My God. Where have you been?

I haven't heard a word from you. I've been so worried.

I certainly didn't mean to worry you, Alexis.

Ha.

Well... Mm.

What's been happening in your life, hmm?

You look wonderful.

A little pale, but that's probably living too much of the good life, hmm?

Come and have some champagne.

Thank you, but, uh, I don't care for a drink.

But speaking of the good life,

you're obviously the one who's been enjoying it.

Hmm.

You finally have this house.

How gratifying for you.

Yes, it is.

Come on in.

So tell me, where were you?

Paris?

Deauville, I bet. You always adored it there.

If I'd been in Deauville, Alexis, I'd have got some sun.

No, my colour is more technically known as prison pallor.

- What? - Prison, darling.

That's where I've been these last few months.

Living the good life in Caracas.

- What are you talking about? - Oh, come on, Alexis.

At least have the dignity not to deny it.

Deny what?

If it hadn't been for Dex and Blake, I'd still be there.

- Be where? - Back in her Caracas jail cell.

Where I put her.

Oh, Alexis is innocent. The credit is mine, all of it.

You see, Cassie threatened to expose my relationship with Emily Fallmont.

What?

It would've destroyed my case against Blake.

I had to protect my interests.

You scum.

- Stop it. - Aah!

- Ben. Stop it. Aah!

Cassie, I knew nothing of this, I swear it.

My God, you're my sister. And whatever our differences-

I'll make it up to you.

Oh, you'll make it up to me, all right. You both will.

One million dollars for each of the five years that I was buried alive.

Five million? Is that all?

You find that amusing, do you, Ben?

Than laugh when I tell the district attorney's office

that you were not, as you testified under oath,

in the field the day that your mother burned to death,

but that you were with Emily Fallmont.

And that you, although you swore that you were with Blake,

were really with me.

Cassie, you're not thinking clearly.

You can't prove these fantastic charges.

Well, maybe I can't.

But Emily can. And she will.

No, she won't.

I don't think that Emily Fallmont

is going to compromise her position and her husband's,

by admitting to an affair with another man.

Why not be a good loser and just go away and leave us alone?

Or the next time you might wish you were back in Caracas.

That's enough, Ben.

Cassie, I know I can't give you back those lost years,

but I can make up for some of them.

Not with money, but with a job.

Doing what? Scrubbing your floors?

Ha, ha. No.

I run a newspaper now, and, uh, you're a good writer.

I have a society column.

Well, it would pay your rent, buy you some new clothes.

I'll even provide a car.

I see.

All this just to shut me up.

No.

Because, in spite of whatever you may think about me,

we are sisters.

I couldn't imagine what happened to you.

Mm. Mm-hm.

Well, they say anticipation makes it better.

Ha, ha. Isn't there a limit?

Ha, ha. Why don't you pour some of that champagne and let's find out.

Okay. Hmm.

You're looking very beautiful tonight.

They also say that beauty reflects passion.

Do they?

Well, in that case, here's to beauty and passion.

Hmm.

You know, don't you, Adam, that passion and hate are very close?

- What's wrong? - You are.

- You and your lies and your deception. - What?

I'm talking about that disgusting story about The Crater

and your father's secret plans for it,

splashed all over the front page of your mother's newspaper.

- That. - Oh yes, Adam, "that."

From information you sweet-talked out of me,

and then ran to your mother with?

You told me you needed that to get at Ben Carrington,

that it would never be used against your father.

How could you have done that?

- Dana, wait a minute. Listen to me. - What? To more of your lies?

- About how you love me? - I do love you.

And I want to explain.

Explain what? How you've used me to make points with your mother?

You're right.

I shouldn't have given her the story, but that's over with now, it's done.

Please, stay with me. I need you.

Dana, you and l have something going here.

Let's not end it when it's just starting.

No. It's ended.

Because I made a mistake?

Because nobody is ever going to use me again, Adam.

Ever.

I'm so glad you're taking this job, Cassie.

It'll give us a chance to really be like sisters.

- It's never too late, is it? - No.

Now, tomorrow at 9:00. And don't be late.

Even executives have to be on time.

Alexis, you won't forget to arrange the charge accounts, will you?

First thing in the morning.

We do want our society columnist to dress the part, don't we?

And the car?

The car will be at your hotel in the morning.

Goodbye, Cassie.

What a charming reconciliation.

I suppose you find it hard to believe that I have feelings for my own sister.

And while we're on the subject of my sister,

how dare you kidnap her and send her back to that terrible jail?

I did what I considered best for both of us.

No, Ben. You did what you considered best for you.

All right, Alexis. Play it your way.

I intend to.

Why so grim, uncle?

Haven't you figured out a way to get rid of me safely yet?

I'm working on it, nephew, believe me.

Don't wait too long. It may backfire.

Oh, don't worry, Adam. I'll get to it.

At the moment, however, you're not my first priority.

Amanda didn't tell you where she was going, did she?

Darling, I've already told you,

she was meeting Michael, that's all I know.

But she's been gone all night.

Yes?

Amanda, where are you?

Yes, of course I was worried.

Were you out all night with a man like Michael?

You know how I feel about him.

Yes, of course, l-

Well, at least we know she's all right.

She's not all right. Not if she's with him.

I don't know.

Ever since we moved out of our home,

I feel like I've lost contact with my children.

Blake, I know how you feel,

but please be careful how you handle Amanda.

You don't wanna lose your daughter.

You understand, we only offer long-term lease on larger

and more luxurious units.

If it comes up. Marvellous.

Reserve one for me. It's precisely what I had in mind.

Oh, my, uh, sister, Alexis Colby, will take care of everything.

So I need that, uh, report tomorrow at 6:00 at the latest.

Otherwise, I can't go ahead with the plan.

You understand it's of the utmost importance.

Excuse me, but, uh, is that Zachary Powers over there?

Uh, yes, Mr. Powers checked in late last night.

From Los Angeles.

Do you know if he'll be staying long?

- I can find out for you, Miss Morell. - Uh, no, no, don't bother.

I'll find out myself.

Damn. Ow.

As a one-armed lover, darling, you have no peer,

but as a one-armed shaver, well, now, here.

- Mm. - Ow!

Ooh! Oh, darling, I'm so sorry.

Here, let me help you.

I used to be rather good at this.

I used to help shave my father.

Oh, look, Alexis, I'm not your father,

so just please go easy with the weapon, will you?

Of course.

You know, I was a little bit annoyed to find out how you did this

from my sister, of all people.

Keep still, darling, I'm a little bit rusty.

Mm-hm.

You know, you really should've told me where you were going,

and why Blake was involved.

Look, Blake gave me his word

that Caress wouldn't be used against you.

- Only against Ben. - Hmm.

Blake's word, lover, is worthless.

And as for Ben, I told you to back off, and I'd handle it.

But you ignored me because Blake ordered you to.

Look, no one orders me to do anything, Alexis.

You should know that.

All I know is that you went against my wishes and mine don't matter.

Yours are all that matters. You are all that matters.

- Is that so? Really? - Mm-hm.

Well, if that's the case, so how come you didn't tell me

about your gallant rescue of my sister, hmm?

- Alexis- - Don't answer that, all right?

Don't.

The trouble with this so-called relationship

is that I give to you, without any questions asked.

And you give to me only when it suits you.

- But that's ridiculous. - Is it?

We'll see how you feel when the shoe's on the other foot.

Here.

Be careful not to cut your throat.

I'm sorry I hung up on you this morning.

And I shouldn't have shouted at you.

We were both wrong.

Oh, Daddy.

You're obviously in love,

and love can be an overwhelming thing, I know that.

But there are times when a father wants to protect his daughter.

But I don't need protection.

I think you do.

Sit down a minute, Amanda.

I just can't close my eyes to this.

I watched your sister being hurt by that man.

I know.

I know you're not Fallon,

and you think Michael is not the same person that he was then.

But I'm afraid he is.

Maybe- Maybe even worse.

Meaning what?

He may have been involved in an oil-lease investment scheme.

Steven checked him out at my request.

- Ny "scheme," do you mean a "crime"? - Yes.

Has he been accused?

No. No, not yet.

But from what Steven found out about him,

and from what I know about him, I'm convinced that he did it.

I-

I just don't wanna see you make a terrible mistake.

Amanda. How can l make you understand?

Michael is not what you think he is.

Thanks for coming so soon, Zach. I really appreciate it.

Oh, I always pay my markers.

You tipped me off about the SEC investigation.

It saved me a ton of grief.

- And not to mention a ton of money. - Ha, ha.

And now I need a favour.

And I need a cup of coffee. Black, please.

Well, Michael, this is quite impressive.

Although perhaps not up to your usual standards.

I remember the indoor pool at the last place.

Well, a pool might be a little conspicuous in my present situation.

Well, of course, your present situation is why you need my help.

What is it? A love affair?

It's business too, Zach. Unfinished business.

With Blake Carrington.

Let's cut the small talk, Zach.

You said you wanted to talk to me about The Crater.

- I'm listening. - Same old Blake.

Straight to the point, huh? Ha, ha.

Yes, that's what I wanna talk about. I heard you need investors.

- I'm still listening. - Good.

Well, I happen to believe

that, uh, natural gas is the cleanest, cheapest

and most abundant form of energy on the whole planet.

So do you, or you wouldn't be involved.

- How much do you need? - Fifty million.

- In return for what? - Twenty-five percent.

Fifty percent. And equal decision-making power.

I don't take in equal partners. I run the show.

You're hardly in a position not to compromise.

My land, my vision.

And my terms.

Your recent, uh, troubles certainly haven't made you any humbler,

have they, Blake? Ha, ha.

All right.

Forty percent, and you keep in full control.

- Thirty. - Thirty-five.

Thirty percent. Take it or leave it.

You now own 30 percent of The Crater.

I thank you, Zach.

And you'll be happy to know I deposited 50 million into your account

to cover the cheque you gave Blake.

There was no hurry,

but why you wanted me to front for you, I'll never know.

It's a long story with a very unhappy ending.

For Blake Carrington.

Zach Powers' certified cheque for 50 million.

Oh, Blake.

- Darling, we're on our way. - Oh.

Oh.

I'm a gambler's wife: one-day feast, one-day famine.

But I wouldn't have it any other way.

Oh, you know what gamblers do when they make a big score.

They have a celebration.

That's what we're gonna do, we're gonna have a double celebration.

Double?

Mm-hm, would you believe that tomorrow

would've been my mother's birthday?

Well, we're gonna have a dinner party

in honour of Ellen Lucy Carrington and the gift she gave me, The Crater.

Good, I'll get started on it right away.

Uh- Ahem.

Did you mean that?

That you really wouldn't have it any other way?

Yeah, I meant it.

"Denver is buzzing with exciting news:

The Alexis Colby Foundation

will be launched at the year's most spectacular event,

Mrs. Colby's Black and White Ball, to be held at the Colby mansion."

"The ball will also surely serve

as Alexis Colby's coronation as Denver's new queen."

Hmm. I like it.

Although perhaps "Denver's new empress" might be more appropriate.

"Empress." Why not?

I'll even place the crown on your head myself at the ball.

- That is if you're inviting me. - Ha, ha.

Well, of course I'm inviting you, Cassie.

Why must you go around with this chip on your shoulder

as though the world owes you a living.

- Do you want some coffee? - No, thanks.

So how did you enjoy writing your first society column?

Well, frankly I didn't. How could l?

In that dreary cubbyhole they gave me as an office.

Oh, it'll get better if you prove yourself.

As you have, Alexis?

Yes, Cassie, just as I have.

I've worked hard and fought to get where I am.

Well, you had the chance. I didn't. I was rotting in prison.

Oh, stop being so self-pitying.

You're out of prison now, and I gave you the chance. So use it.

Oh, I will, believe me, Alexis.

Before I'm through, I intend to have everything I want and deserve.

Don't you ever get tired?

Well, you see, being temporarily unemployed,

I have all this excess energy.

Have you thought about using some-?

For finding a job?

As an honest man, I'd be more acceptable to your father.

It would help.

Well, I could always be a gigolo.

Squiring rich old ladies for pay?

Pretending that you're having a wonderful evening?

There's no pretending in your case, Amanda.

I wanna spend all my time with you. Not just an evening.

- All of your time? - That's what I said.

All.

Would you like company, Zach?

Caress.

How nice to see you again.

"Nice"?

As in "Nice to see the ghost of someone you've murdered"?

Champagne cocktail, please.

My favourite drink, you may recall.

I missed them terribly in prison.

- Or doesn't that matter to you? - Oh, Caress.

I did all I could to keep you out of prison.

But instead of dwelling on the past, now, why not look to the future?

Yes, why not?

Because that's precisely what I want to talk about: the future.

Mine.

How much?

How much are your past mistakes worth to you, Zach?

Quite a bit, I should think, considering what they've cost me over the years.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand."

Is that fair?

For now.

For now?

It would never end, would it, Caress?

Therefore...

It must never begin.

And it was nice seeing you again.

Tsk.

Thank you.

Could you bring me a telephone, please.

Thank you.

Oh, hello, could I speak to Emily Fallmont, please?

Oh, I see. Um...

Well, could you tell her that Caress Morell called,

and will call again.

Thank you.

Use your backhand.

Racket up, ready position.

All right, now keep it in front of you.

- Aah! - Very good. Attaway, Sammy Jo.

Okay, here we go, let's see your backhand.

Great. Put it down on the court now, here we go.

That's it. Good.

What's the matter?

I'm all right.

All right. Let's call it a day, huh?

- I'm fine, really. - Come on.

Sammy Jo, ahh, I want you to sit down over here, okay?

- And just relax. - Okay.

I'll see you in a few minutes, Don.

Hey, hi, Amanda.

Clay, how are you? Sammy Jo.

- Coming or going? - Going.

I just finished a lesson.

Oh, come on, I've seen you play. You could give lessons.

And a lot of things from what I've heard.

Thanks, Sammy Jo. From what I've heard, you're doing well too.

- Are you sure you're all right? - Yes, I'm fine.

Maybe you ought to see a doctor.

I have seen a doctor.

I have something very special to tell you.

Something wonderful.

- I'm pregnant. - You're what?

We're gonna have a baby.

A baby?

Hey, how about that, huh?

I told you it was something special. Right?

Ha, ha. Right. It's great.

It was good of you to come, Emily.

I realise our last meeting wasn't too pleasant.

I wouldn't have come if I'd thought I had a choice.

Neither of us does, Em. Please, won't you sit down.

Well, this is about Ben again, isn't it?

It's about you and Ben.

About how your husband would feel if-

Caress, for God's sake.

If he learned about your affair.

Look, Emily, I swear to you, I don't want to hurt you,

but my own survival is at stake.

Your survival?

What about mine?

What about Buck's?

Don't you realise what this would do to him?

The point is, Emily, do you realise what it would do to him?

How much do you want?

A hundred thousand dollars.

I can't raise that kind of money.

Every cent I have is in Buck's name.

Well, your jewellery, then?

Oh, Caress, please. I have a few things.

But it would be impossible for me to sell them without him finding out.

And that would be the end of my marriage.

I couldn't bear that.

My family is my whole life.

I beg you, Caress.

Oh, please, don't do this.

Emily, nothing in this world is impossible.

It took me five miserable years, but I learned that.

Now you have to learn it too.

Or Buck will find out everything.

No.

I'm so happy you could drop by, Zach.

Oh, and I'm so happy to see you, Alexis.

Especially in this setting. This magnificent house.

- Hmm. - You and it go together.

- Like, um, caviar and champagne? - Ha-ha-ha.

- Cheers. - Cheers.

Mm.

You know, I still remember that first night

when we met on my yacht.

- Hmm. - And, um, I heard you laugh.

Yes, you said it reminded you of a sliver of moonlight.

- And you were with my sister. - Mm, yes.

Poor Caress.

- Her bad luck became my good luck. - Hmm.

It made it possible for me to, uh, know you.

Oh, excuse me, Mrs. Colby. Mr. Dexter is on the phone.

Tell him I'm not in, Gerard.

Come and sit down, Zach.

Thank you.

So, what were you saying?

Hmm? Oh, yes.

Uh, well, how, uh, lucky I was to have you all to myself in Acapulco.

But you didn't invite me here to exchange memories, Alexis.

One of your more admirable traits, Zach,

- is that you don't waste words. - Heh, heh.

My information tells me

that your money is behind Blake's new venture.

True?

Ah. So it is true.

And knowing you, Blake is on to something big.

And knowing you, Alexis, you're prepared to make me an offer.

Mm-hm.

All right, what?

Twenty-five percent profit for your share.

Which is one hell of a price to pay for the mere pleasure

of seeing Blake's face when he discovers you as his new partner.

One must always be prepared to pay for one's pleasure.

Do we have a deal?

I'm sorry, Alexis, but l-

- How much? - Oh, no, no, no.

It's not a question of money. No, no.

I can't sell to you because I am not the principle.

You see, I fronted for a friend.

He is the actual partner.

And what's the name of your friend?

He prefers to remain anonymous.

And he will.

I'm afraid this is one you lose, Alexis.

Oh, I wouldn't count on that, Zach.

Ben, please. Tell me what to do.

Just go home. Stay calm and don't worry.

Don't worry? When she's going to tell Buck?

Don't worry?

Oh, God, help me, how could you and I have been so stupid?

We loved each other, even if only for a short time.

- But we loved each other, Emily. - Oh, it was so wrong.

No, ha, ha. No, Emily, it was not.

- Ahh. - A mistake, maybe, but not wrong.

I nearly did leave him for you, you know that.

But I couldn't.

I loved him.

He was my life.

And now, if Caress does this, it'll destroy my life.

- She won't. - I'll lose him.

- I'll lose everything. - Blake Carrington did this.

He brought Caress back into our lives.

What difference does it make who did it? It's done.

Look, I said not to worry. I'll handle this.

- You mean you'll pay her? - I'll take care of it.

Oh, Ben.

Oh, Ben.

Oh, thank you.

Go home to Buck.

Everything will be all right.

Thank you.

This is Ben Carrington.

I need your services again.

The same individual.

No, she's not in Caracas. She's in Denver.

Now, this is what I want you to do.

Ooh, ooh, ooh.

- Michael, I have to get changed. - Mm-hm.

- And so do you. - Mm.

I've decided not to go to the party, Amanda.

I wasn't invited, remember?

I invited you.

Did you tell your father?

You didn't.

Can't you just see the look on his face when I show up?

And spare me, don't try to tell me

that your father and l will become best friends.

That everything will be fine.

Because you don't believe that, either.

You and I love each other.

He's got to understand that.

Let me ask you something.

Down deep, aren't you thinking that maybe your father is right?

That maybe I'm just not good enough for you?

No.

I'm not thinking that at all.

The other night, I said I wanted you with me all the time.

You knew what I meant, Amanda, living with me. But you're not.

- Michael- - I know, I know.

You want your father to accept me first. But he won't.

You're a Carrington. Who am l? What can I offer you?

My love, that's all.

Jackie's doctors decided to send her

to a burn centre in Houston for further therapy.

- And Dominique went with her? - Yes, they left this morning.

- Darling, what is it? - Nothing.

Just thinking about Amanda.

She'll come.

Steven said that she was at the office finishing up.

I phoned there, there was no answer.

And that was over an hour ago.

Blake, it's Adam.

No, it's okay. Thank you.

- Krystle. - Adam.

Father.

May I speak with you for a few minutes?

I'm not crashing the party, Father,

but Amanda told me the reason for the celebration.

I never knew my grandmother, but I've heard enough about her

to know that she was an extraordinary woman.

- And sometimes I think- - You think what?

I think that had we known each other we would've been close.

And perhaps you and l might've been closer.

- I just wanted to stop by. - No, wait.

We may have our differences,

but I think at times like these, Adam, family should be together.

Why don't you join us?

Thank you.

Captain, will you have a place set at that table?

It's nice you could be with us, Adam.

That's very generous of you, Krystle. Thank you.

- Steven. - Adam.

- Dex. - Good to see you, Adam.

You too.

Something wrong?

It looks as though I'm missing out on a celebration of some kind.

And Mr. Dexter isn't.

Yeah. Ha, ha.

It's true. I've always-

- Hello, Blake. - Zach.

Well, Dex, seeing you here I should say,

"What a pleasant surprise," but it isn't.

But seeing you here, Adam, is.

Well, Father invited me to stay.

Really? Some sort of celebration?

Yes. That's right.

We're celebrating the development of The Crater.

Something that you'll hear a great deal about.

Well, isn't that interesting.

Alexis, we'll be late for the party. Will you excuse us?

Well, Alexis and Zach. That's an interesting couple.

Are you hurt, lady?

No.

That car, it didn't have any licence plates on it.

I know who it was.

Do you have any messages for Blake Carrington?

Well, would you check that, please?

I'm expecting a phone call from my daughter, Amanda.

Ah. I see.

Thank you very much.

Blake, is there something wrong with Amanda?

Yes, there are some problems.

Well, maybe I can help.

No, thank you. I'll try to manage without you.

It was a lovely evening, darling.

I'd better check on Kristina.

Hello, uh, this is Mr. Carrington.

Would you have a forwarding address for Michael Culhane?

Thank you. I'll hold on.

- Yes, who is it? Amanda.

Thank you very much, I won't need that.

Come in.

Daddy, I'm sorry.

I didn't realise the time.

The party is over, Amanda.

Apparently, uh, it didn't matter to you.

But it did.

Is that why you chose to be with Michael Culhane

rather than with your family?

It's a sad choice.

Why can't you see that man for what he really is?

Why can't you see me for what I really am?

I know. A woman in love.

- And you think he loves you. - Yes.

Darling, he is using you.

He's using you to get at me.

That's a terrible thing to say.

Amanda, if I saw you poised on the edge of a cliff,

what would you want me to say to you?

"Go on, darling, jump, jump, with my blessing."

I won't give him up, Daddy.

I'm moving in with him.

- Now, you listen to me- - I have.

You insist I make a choice.

I've made it.

Amanda.

Amanda.

Amanda!
