You see, I'm aware of the fact That fallon has very little love

For her older brother.

>> adam: she hasn't Booby-trapped my room yet.

Would you like some wine?

>> alexis: no, and I don't think This is something to make jokes

About.

I know fallon a lot better than You do -- she's very bright, and

She can be very nasty.

>> adam: I can look after Myself.

>> alexis: not if you don't know What's going on.

Oh, adam...

Despite our differences, I'm Still your mother, and I don't

Want one of my children hurting The other.

So...

Is there something in your past That you haven't told me about?

>> adam: my past is like the Proverbial open book -- open and

Kind of boring.

>> alexis: oh.

Well, fallon isn't bored.

My instincts tell me that she's Prying into it, trying to find

Some way of harming you.

>> adam: how could fallon harm Me?

>> alexis: I don't know.

Why else would she receive a Phone call from billings,

Montana, from someone who Couldn't wait until she got back

Into her own office?

>> adam: it was probably someone Wanting a reservation at

La mirage.

>> alexis: well, they have a Reservations clerk at la mirage.

No, no, this was a call that Your sister was obviously

Waiting for from your hometown.

>> adam: ah, yes, of course -- Some absurd notion she got from

A senile doctor from billings That I had something to do with

A poison case, which I did not.

>> alexis: poison?

Does this have anything to do With jeff?

>> adam: only in fallon's mind.

But not to worry, mother -- The old man assuredly was

Mistaken.

>> alexis: well, I hope that's The whole story, adam.

I don't want any more unpleasant Surprises.

The last time you surprised me, I kept my mouth shut, even

Though, thanks to you, poor jeff Nearly died.

And well.

Let me warn you about something, Adam -- even though I'm your

Mother, don't count on my Maternal loyalties twice.

We can leave now and fly to Billings, find the man I'm

Looking for, and be back home in Time for dinner.

>> jeff: this guy, Judd barrows -- you said he's a

Foreman there?

>> fallon: he's an ex-foreman For a chemical plant that was

Sued by a worker who was Poisoned by mercuric oxide.

He's the man who has all the Answers we need.

>> jeff: why don't you talk to Him on the phone?

>> fallon: because now he's Working on a ranch outside of

Town.

>> jeff: ranches have phones.

>> fallon: okay, I have this gut Feeling that I'm not going to be

Able to get very far with this Man by phone...Or even in person

Alone.

>> jeff: that doesn't exactly Sound like fallon.

>> fallon: we both know I can Take care of myself, but I don't

Know about dealing with these Backwoods types, which I figure

This guy is.

So, jeff, won't you help me?

We can get to the bottom of this Once and for all.

>> jeff: I don't know, fallon.

I got a desk full of problems.

>> fallon: jeff...

You and I may have gone in Totally different directions,

But the one thing I've never Made any bones about is this --

You, jeffrey colby, are the Single nicest man I've ever

Known in my entire life.

Have actually done this to You -- poisoned you -- has never

Gone away.

One last question -- tell us About your son...And whether you

Consider yourself a good father To him.

>> steven: I would never have Returned to denver, to my life

As a carrington, if my father Hadn't informed me in singapore

That I had fathered a son.

From that moment on, and then From the moment when I took him

From my stepmother and held him In my arms, my son -- danny --

Became the focal point of my Life.

The most important part of my Entire existence is the love and

The nurturing of my son.

>> chris: thank you.

I have no more questions.

>> judge kendall: mr. Laird, Cross?

>> andrew: that's interesting -- Very interesting.

We have all been sitting here For two days now listening to

Witness after witness, some of Them hostile to

Steven carrington, and others Warmly oh, so

Warmly singing his praises as God's young gift to total

Goodness.

But the one distinctive area Missing -- intentional or

Otherwise -- has been testimony Shedding any light whatsoever on

The one key issue in this case, And that is the sexual

Preferences of Steven carrington.

We all know that he had a male Lover in new york, and we know

That he, uh, lives with a male In an apartment here in denver,

And that male happens to be his Attorney,

Mr. Christopher deegan, who is Representing him in this case.

Now, steven, would you tell us, Is mr. Deegan your present

Lover?

That's nobody's business but my Own.

>> judge kendall: please answer The question, mr. Carrington.

Would you repeat the question, Mr. Laird?

>> andrew: yes, your honor.

Is mr. Deegan your present lover Or isn't he?

>> steven: I won't answer that.

What he's asking, in essence, is If I'm guilty of being gay.

Well, nobody -- not my father's Lawyer, not you, not anybody in

This courtroom or outside it -- Has the right to ask this

Because there is no guilt in That issue!

Everybody in this state and in This country has the right to

Live his own life the way he Wants.

Provided he's a decent human Being, isn't a man entitled to

Raise his own child whether he's Homosexual or not?

I am and will always be danny's Father, and a good one no matter

What my lifestyle is!

>> judge kendall: mr. Carrington, this court is trying

To decide what is in the best Interests of your son, so will

You please give us an answer to Mr. Laird's question?

>> steven: you just got it.

>> judge kendall: don't be Impudent.

Is that all you have to say?

>> steven: that's my final Answer.

>> judge kendall: this court is In recess until tomorrow morning

At 10:00, at which time it is Very likely that, in the light

Of today's illuminating Testimony, I will have a

Judgment to render in this case.

You may step down, Mr. Carrington.

>> all rise.

>> chris: you just made a big

Mistake -- a very big mistake, Steven.

Why? Why, for god's sake, did You do it?

>> steven:

>> alexis: hello?

>> adam: mother.

>> alexis: oh, hello, adam.

What can I do for you?

>> adam: I'm calling from my Office, mother.

Leases -- the negotiations I was Handling for colbyco -- and

There are some routine papers That need signing.

Son for a principle.

>> steven: what kind of a father Am I gonna make for danny if I

Don't have any principles to Teach him, and I'm not true to

My own convictions?

>> chris: you're not going to Make any kind of father if

And devise a big miracle.

>> claudia: good night.

>> chris: good night.

No.

He's right, steven.

>> steven: he's not right, Damn it!

I'm sorry.

But don't you see?

I tried to tell my father, and He wouldn't listen to me.

That's why we're in court.

I've got to win this thing on an Honest principle that a man's

Entitled to live his own life The way he chooses.

Otherwise, every time some guy Walks in my front door, my

Father can make a federal case Out of it.

I've got to stand on my own Principles, or else what kind of

A man am I?

When she'd creep out of our bed When something was troubling her

And climb a tree out in the Front and do nothing but brood.

But that girl-woman has turned Out to be a lot more woman.

>> fallon: she takes action.

>> jeff: as a matter of fact, She does.

Tell me, fallon, are you happy With the way it's turned out?

>> fallon: you answer me first.

Are you?

Before you do, I'll let you in On something -- I saw your look

After you hung up from talking With kirby this afternoon.

Is she upset that you're Marooned here with me?

>> jeff: with kirby's moods These days, it's hard to tell

What she's feeling.

What's so funny?

>> fallon: we're both evading The issue.

Here's to time out.

Happy evasion.

>> jeff: I'd better order Another bottle of wine.

The night is young.

>> fallon: >> jeff: your key, madame.

>> fallon: thank you.

>> jeff: and your luggage.

>> fallon: thank you very much, Kind sir.

>> jeff: about your question at Dinner -- yes, I am happy...

Right now...

>> fallon: I'm happy, too, jeff.

>> jeff: can I repeat a Confession I made to you once?

>> fallon: depends on the Confession.

>> jeff: there's a part of me That's never going to stop

Loving you.

>> fallon: oh, jeff.

>> jeff: never.

You're the first girl I ever

Loved, you know that?

>> fallon: yes, I know that.

>> jeff: what are you thinking Right now?

>> fallon: I want you just as Much as you want me, but --

>> jeff: no "Buts."

The rest of the world is a Million miles away.

>> krystle: well, what did you

Want to see me about, blake?

>> blake: I had to come here.

I had to try to make you Understand what you wouldn't let

Me explain to you today in Court.

When I agreed, reluctantly, to Let andrew question sammy jo on

The stand, it was only to prove That alexis' testimony was a

Lie, that -- that I bought Little danny for adoption.

But I had no idea that sammy jo Would go that far, that she

Would hurl all that -- that Poison at steven.

>> krystle: I see.

I believe you.

Is that it?

>> blake: no. No, not quite.

I know you, krystle.

You're not a woman to say "I Told you so," so I'll say it for

You.

Youdidtell me so.

You told me that if I went to Court with this custody thing,

That it would bring nothing but Heartache to everyone...

Including myself.

>> krystle: well, chris deegan Seems to think you've won, that

The judge will rule in your Favor tomorrow.

>> blake: andrew thinks the Same, but...

If I do win...

It'll be a hollow victory that I've won -- a desperately hollow

Victory.

Thank you for coming downstairs.

Thank you for hearing me out.

>> sammy jo: who is it?

>> claudia: claudia blaisdel.

>> sammy jo: You obviously have something you

Want to talk about.

Well, it's late and I can't see You now.

>> claudia: well, that's too bad Because I'm going to see you.

>> sammy jo: what do you want?

>> claudia: I want you to go Back to that hearing tomorrow

And retract those vicious lies That you told in court today.

>> sammy jo: lies?

Who the hell are you to call me A liar?

>> claudia: someone who knows The truth.

You painted a picture of steven As not a man, and I know for a

Fact that he is.

>> sammy jo: oh, that's right -- The woman who taught steven

About sex but obviously wasn't Good enough at it to land him.

Well, I did and I lived to Regret it, so you're welcome to

Him.

And as for me taking back one Word of what I said, you really

Are a crazy lady -- still -- In or out of that place

Where they had you locked up.

>> claudia: sammy jo, what you Think of me doesn't mean a

Thing.

I couldn't care less, but I am Going to ask you now to think

About your child -- how what Happens in that court tomorrow

Could affect danny for the rest Of his life.

>> sammy jo: which is none of Your business, lady.

And steven sure is a gutless Wonder to send you here to fight

His battles.

>> claudia: I know it's late and

I know I should have called, but What I have to say I just

Couldn't handle over the phone.

There's no time to waste, Steven.

>> steven: would you mind Telling me what you're talking

About?

>> claudia: if you've ever Believed in me, if you've ever

Trusted me, you've got to do so Now and agree with what I say.

I'm not going to let you lose Your son, steven.

We're not gonna let anyone ever Take danny away from you.

I can stop blake.

I've got the answer.
