>> Alexis: SUITE 32, PLEASE.
HELLO?

THIS IS ALEXIS COLBY.
HAS SHE FINISHED YET?

GOOD.
THEN SCHEDULE DELIVERY FOR 11:00

THIS MORNING.

>> Caress: HELLO?
MR. CRAYTON?

MM-HMM.
LA MIRAGE TODAY.

THANK YOU. BYE-BYE.
>> Alexis: OH, GOOD.

YOU'RE READY.
>> Caress: FOR WHAT?

>> Alexis: FOR THE TRIAL, OF
COURSE, DARLING.

WE DON'T WANT TO BE LATE.
>> Caress: OH, YES, OF COURSE.

WELL, UH, YOU'LL HAVE TO GO
WITHOUT ME.

I HAVE OTHER BUSINESS.
>> Alexis: OH, CASSIE...

YOU MUST CANCEL THAT BUSINESS.
YOU TOLD ME YOU WANTED TO MAKE A

NEW LIFE HERE IN DENVER.
WHAT BETTER WAY TO DO IT THAN TO

BE SEEN AROUND WITH YOUR SISTER,
WHO ONLY WANTS THE BEST FOR YOU?

>> Caress: I'M SORRY, BUT --
>> Alexis: THE PRESS WILL BE

THERE!
PHOTOGRAPHERS...

>> Caress: I CAN'T.
I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT.

>> Alexis: OH.
WELL...THAT'S TOO BAD.

I'LL MISS YOU.
SEE YOU LATER.

TOODLE-OO!
>> THERE'S THE CARRINGTON LIMO

NOW.
MRS. CARRINGTON!

COME ON, LET'S GET A SHOT.
>> MRS. CARRINGTON, WHERE IS

YOUR HUSBAND?
>> Krystle: HE'LL BE HERE.

EXCUSE US.
>> HOW DOES HIS EX-WIFE,

ALEXIS COLBY, FIT INTO ALL OF
THIS?

>> Krystle: YOU'LL HAVE TO ASK
HER.

>> CAN WE EXPECT ANY SURPRISES,
AMANDA?

>> Amanda: I HAVE NO COMMENT.
>> WHEN IS MRS. COLBY ARRIVING?

>> STEVEN? STEVEN CARRINGTON?
THIS IS FOR YOU.

HAVE A NICE DAY.
>> THERE'S BEN CARRINGTON!

>> CAN WE GET A PHOTOGRAPH,
PLEASE?

>> Steven: BEN...WHAT IS THIS?
>> Ben: MY GUESS IS THAT'S A

SUBPOENA.
>> Steven: WHAT'S IT FOR?

WHATEVER HAPPENED BETWEEN YOU
AND MY FATHER HAPPENED BEFORE I

WAS BORN.
>> Ben: WHERE IS YOUR FATHER,

STEVEN?
GONNA COME IN THE BACK WAY?

>> Steven: YES, AS A MATTER OF
FACT, HE IS.

>> Ben: FIGURES.
>> Blake: STEVEN, HAVE YOU SEEN

KRYSTLE AND AMANDA?
>> Steven: THEY WENT INSIDE

ALREADY.
DAD, I WAS JUST HANDED THIS

SUBPOENA.
WHAT'S THAT ALL ABOUT?

>> Davis: THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO
CONFUSE US, STEVEN.

IT'S AN OLD TRICK TO THROW US
ATTORNEYS OFF STRIDE.

>> Steven: WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO
SAY ON THE STAND?

>> Blake: WHATEVER THEY ASK YOU,
JUST TELL THEM THE TRUTH.

YOUR GRANDFATHER MADE HIS WILL
ON HIS DEATHBED IN FRONT OF

THREE WITNESSES.
WHATEVER THEY TRY, THEY CAN'T

CHANGE THE FACTS.
>> Davis: WE'D BETTER GET IN

THERE.
>> Blake: WHY DON'T YOU AND

STEVEN GO ON AHEAD?
I WANT TO TALK TO ADAM FOR A

MINUTE.
>> Adam: YES, FATHER?

>> Blake: SON...
FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS, WE'VE,

UH, WE'VE HAD OUR DIFFERENCES.
BUT I THINK WE OUGHT TO FORGET

THEM NOW, BECAUSE WHATEVER
HAPPENS IN THERE COULD NOT ONLY

AFFECT DENVER CARRINGTON, IT
COULD AFFECT ALL OF US -- OUR

WHOLE FAMILY.
>> Adam: YOU SOUND REALLY

CONCERNED ABOUT A CASE THAT'S
ALL BUT TIED UP FOR US.

YOU SAID IT YOURSELF --
GRANDFATHER'S WILL WAS DRAWN UP

AND SIGNED IN THE PRESENCE OF
THREE WITNESSES.

>> Blake: YOU DON'T KNOW MY
BROTHER.

HE CAN BE BRUTAL.
HE'S TOUGH, AND HE'S A FIGHTER.

WE'RE NOT JUST WALKING INTO A
COURTROOM.

WE'RE WALKING INTO A WAR.
>> Adam: I'VE NEVER RUN FROM A

FIGHT IN MY LIFE.
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ONE.

AND, FATHER, BELIEVE ME, I DO
REALIZE THAT AT TIMES LIKE THIS,

THE ONLY IMPORTANT THING IS THE
FAMILY.

>> Blake: GOOD.
LET'S GO.

>> Adam: OKAY.
>> Dominique: JACKIE?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
WHAT'S WRONG?

>> Jackie: MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE,
MOTHER.

>> Dominique: WHAT ABOUT IT?
>> Jackie: I SENT FOR IT.

"PèRE INCONNU"-- FRENCH FOR
"FATHER UNKNOWN"?

YOU LIED TO ME ABOUT MY FATHER!
>> Dominique: JACKIE, YOU DON'T

UNDERSTAND.
>> MS. DEVEREAUX, YOU'VE BEEN

CALLED TO THE STAND.
>> Dominique: THANK YOU.

JACKIE, PLEASE, JUST GO BACK TO
THE HOTEL, WAIT FOR ME THERE.

I WILL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING TO
YOU, I PROMISE.

PLEASE.
>> MS. DEVEREAUX...

>> Crenshaw: LAURA COX, YOUR
MOTHER, NOW DECEASED, TOLD YOU

THAT BEN CARRINGTON WAS
RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS MOTHER'S

DEATH.
IS THAT RIGHT?

>> Dominique: IT IS.
SHE WOULD REFER TO BEN AS THE

SON WHO KILLED HIS MOTHER.
>> Crenshaw: AND THAT'S THE

REASON TOM CARRINGTON DISOWNED
HIS YOUNGER SON?

>> Dominique: YES, IT IS.
>> Crenshaw: WHERE DO YOU

SUPPOSE YOUR MOTHER HEARD THIS
STORY?

>> Dominique: FROM
TOM CARRINGTON.

>> Crenshaw: SO LAURA COX, NOW
DECEASED, HEARD THIS STORY FROM

TOM CARRINGTON, NOW DECEASED.
IN OTHER WORDS, YOUR WHOLE

TESTIMONY COMES FROM TWO PEOPLE
WHO CAN'T BE CALLED AS

WITNESSES, CAN THEY?
>> Dominique: MR. CRENSHAW, MY

MOTHER WAS ONE OF THE MOST
SCRUPULOUSLY HONEST WOMEN I HAVE

EVER KNOWN.
I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO

DOUBT HER WORD.
>> Crenshaw: I WOULD IMAGINE YOU

HAVE NO REASON TO DOUBT
TOM CARRINGTON EITHER, CORRECT?

>> Dominique: THAT IS CORRECT.
>> Crenshaw: AFTER ALL, HE WAS

YOUR FATHER.
YOU MUST HAVE BEEN RATHER CLOSE,

WEREN'T YOU?
WEREN'T YOU, MS. DEVEREAUX?

OR ISN'T IT A FACT YOU NEVER MET
YOUR FATHER UNTIL THE DAY OF HIS

DEATH?
>> Dominique: I MET MY FATHER.

I DON'T KNOW THAT IT'S IMPORTANT
WHEN I MET MY FATHER.

>> Judge Thurlowe: MS.
DEVEREAUX, YOU'LL PLEASE

ANSWER THE QUESTION AS ASKED.
>> Dominique:

I MET MY FATHER, TOM CARRINGTON,
ON THE DAY THAT HE DIED.

WE SPENT HIS LAST MOMENTS
TOGETHER.

>> Crenshaw: WELL, THEY MUST
HAVE BEEN VERY TOUCHING.

THIS MAN OF SOUND MIND, WHO IN
ONE AFTERNOON ACCEPTS YOU AS HIS

DAUGHTER, SOMEBODY HE'S NEVER
SEEN BEFORE, AND THEN INSTRUCTS

YOU TO KEEP BEN CARRINGTON,
ANOTHER MAN YOU'VE NEVER MET

BEFORE, OUT OF HIS WILL?
>> Dominique: I DON'T CARE ABOUT

THE MONEY.
I DON'T NEED THE MONEY.

>> Crenshaw: THAT'S VERY
GENEROUS, MS. DEVEREAUX, BUT THE

FACT REMAINS, YOU'VE GOT 1/3 OF
$500 MILLION BECAUSE OF A

FAIRY TALE TOLD TO YOU ON YOUR
MOTHER'S KNEE.

ISN'T THAT TRUE?
>> Dominique: MR. CRENSHAW...

THAT WAS MY FATHER'S LAST WISH.
>> Crenshaw: HOW FORTUNATE FOR

YOU.
THAT'S ALL.

THANK YOU, MS. DEVEREAUX.
NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.

>> Lin: MR. DEXTER, HELLO.
>> Dex: HELLO, LIN.

MRS. COLBY WAS SUPPOSED TO LEAVE
SOME PAPERS FOR ME.

>> Lin: THEY'RE UPSTAIRS.
I'LL GET THEM FOR YOU,

MR. DEXTER.
>> Dex: THANK YOU.

CALL ME A ROMANTIC...

AND THE LORD BYRON...
GABLE...

AND DEXTER TRADITION.
>> Alexis:

YOU'RE SO MODEST.
>> Dex: DO YOU WANT...AND DO YOU

NEED PROOF OF THAT, ALEXIS?
MY GOD, ALEXIS...

>> DO YOU SOLEMNLY SWEAR THAT
ALL THE TESTIMONY YOU MAY GIVE

BEFORE THIS COURT SHALL BE THE
TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP
YOU GOD?

>> Ben: I DO.
>> STATE YOUR NAME, PLEASE.

>> Ben: BENJAMIN CARRINGTON.
>> Amanda: I WONDER WHAT KEPT

HER.
>> Krystle: IT'S CALLED MAKING

AN ENTRANCE.
>> Crenshaw: MR. CARRINGTON, HOW

LONG HAVE YOU BEEN ESTRANGED
FROM YOUR FAMILY?

>> Ben: SINCE MY MOTHER DIED.
>> Crenshaw: DURING THAT TIME,

DID YOU HAVE ANY CONTACT WITH
YOUR BROTHER, BLAKE CARRINGTON,

OR YOUR FATHER, TOM CARRINGTON?
>> Ben: NO, I DID NOT.

>> Crenshaw: IN FACT, UNTIL A
FEW WEEKS AGO, YOU'D NEVER MET

DOMINIQUE DEVEREAUX, WHO CLAIMS
TO KNOW YOUR LIFE STORY,

CORRECT?
>> Ben: YES.

>> Crenshaw: THE STORY THAT
WE'VE HEARD IS THAT YOUR FATHER

DISOWNED YOU BECAUSE HE HELD YOU
RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR MOTHER'S

DEATH.
IF THAT WERE TRUE, WOULD YOU

BLAME HIM?
>> Ben: OF COURSE NOT.

>> Crenshaw: THEN HOW CAN YOU
POSSIBLY FEEL YOU DESERVE TO

SHARE IN HIS ESTATE?
>> Ben: BECAUSE I DID NOT KILL

MY MOTHER.
>> Crenshaw: IF YOU DIDN'T, WHO

DID?
>> Ben: IT WAS MY BROTHER,

BLAKE CARRINGTON.
>> Blake: THAT'S A LIE!

THAT'S NOT TRUE!
>> Ben: HE KILLED HER.

>> Blake: HE'S LYING!

>> Judge Thurlowe: MR.
CARRINGTON, INSTRUCT YOUR

CLIENT.
>> Adam: FATHER, PLEASE.

>> Judge Thurlowe: I WILL NOT
TOLERATE ANY FURTHER OUTBURSTS

IN THIS COURT.
IS THAT CLEAR?

>> Adam: YES, YOUR HONOR.
I APOLOGIZE FOR MY CLIENT.

>> Judge Thurlowe: MR. CRENSHAW,
YOU MAY CONTINUE.

>> Crenshaw: MR. CARRINGTON,
WE'VE ALL HEARD THE STORY OF

YOUR MOTHER'S DEATH AS TOLD TO
MS. DEVEREAUX BY HER MOTHER, AS

TOLD TO HER BY TOM CARRINGTON,
WHO HEARD IT FROM

BLAKE CARRINGTON.
THAT'S, UM...TRIPLE HEARSAY, AT

BEST.
AT WORST, A TERRIBLE LIE YOU'VE

HAD TO SUFFER WITH FOR YEARS.
I THINK IT'S TIME WE HEARD FROM

SOMEONE WHO WAS ACTUALLY THERE.
WHAT DID HAPPEN, MR. CARRINGTON?

>> Ben: WELL, THE DAY OF THE
FIRE --

>> Crenshaw: OF YOUR MOTHER'S
DEATH?

>> Ben: YES.
THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY IN THE

OIL FIELD.
NORMALLY, MY FATHER, BLAKE, AND

I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE FIELD.
>> Crenshaw: WAS THIS A NORMAL

SITUATION?
>> Ben: NO.

MY FATHER WAS IN NEW ORLEANS ON
BUSINESS.

>> Crenshaw: LEAVING YOU AND
YOUR BROTHER AT HOME ALONE.

DID YOUR FATHER LEAVE ANY
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE HE WENT TO

NEW ORLEANS?
>> Ben: YES -- THAT MY MOTHER

WAS NOT TO BE LEFT ALONE UNDER
ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

HER LEG WAS BROKEN.
SHE WAS BEDRIDDEN.

>> Crenshaw: AND SHE WAS
HELPLESS.

>> Ben: YES.
>> Crenshaw: WHAT ABOUT THE

EMERGENCY IN THE FIELD?
>> Ben: ONE OF US HAD TO GET OUT

THERE.
>> Crenshaw: ONE OF YOU HAD TO

STAY BEHIND WITH YOUR MOTHER?
>> Ben: OF COURSE.

>> Crenshaw: BUT YOUR MOTHER WAS
LEFT ALONE?

>> Ben: YES, AND WHEN THE FIRE
BROKE OUT, NO ONE WAS THERE TO

SAVE HER, BECAUSE THE BROTHER
WHO'D BEEN LEFT BEHIND WAS IN

TOWN, DRUNK, AND IN BED HIMSELF
WITH A WOMAN, WHILE MY MOTHER

BURNED TO DEATH.
>> Crenshaw: NOW,

MR. CARRINGTON, AS SAD AS THIS
STORY IS, IT'S JUST THE SAME

STORY THAT'S BEEN TOLD OVER THE
YEARS, ISN'T IT?

>> Ben: EXCEPT THAT IT WAS
BLAKE CARRINGTON IN TOWN, DRUNK.

HE LEFT HER ALONE AND LIED TO MY
MY FATHER TO PROTECT HIMSELF.

>> Blake: YOU CAUSED HER DEATH!
HE'S LYING, YOUR HONOR!

>> Judge Thurlowe: MR.

CARRINGTON, I'LL HAVE ORDER IN
THIS COURT, OR I'LL BE FORCED TO

HAVE YOU REMOVED!
>> Crenshaw: WERE YOU IN THE

FIELD, MR. CARRINGTON?
>> Ben: YES. I WAS.

BLAKE KILLED HER, LIED ABOUT IT,
AND MADE ME PAY FOR IT.

>> Crenshaw: NO FURTHER
QUESTIONS.

>> Judge Thurlowe: CROSS-
EXAMINE.

>> Adam: THANK YOU, YOUR HONOR.
MR. CARRINGTON, WHY HAVE YOU

WAITED SO LONG TO TELL YOUR
STORY?

>> Ben: BECAUSE MY FATHER WAITED
SO LONG TO DIE.

>> Adam: OH.
YOU WERE WILLING TO SUFFER THE

TORTURES OF THE DAMNED UNTIL
YOUR FATHER DIED AND UNTIL YOU

REALIZED THAT YOU WERE OUT
$125 MILLION.

IS THAT RIGHT?
>> Ben: I KNEW THE TRUTH WOULD

COME OUT SOONER OR LATER.
>> Adam: OH, IT WILL, BELIEVE

ME, MR. CARRINGTON.
NOW...WHEN TOM CARRINGTON

RETURNED AND DISCOVERED THIS
TRAGEDY, DIDN'T YOU TELL HIM AT

ONCE THAT IT WAS YOUR BROTHER,
BLAKE, WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE?

>> Ben: OF COURSE I DID.
>> Adam: DIDN'T HE BELIEVE YOU?

>> Ben: NO. NO, HE DIDN'T.
>> Adam: A MAN IS CONFRONTED

WITH HIS WIFE'S HORRIBLE DEATH.
ONE BROTHER BLAMES THE OTHER,

BUT THE FATHER CHOOSES TO
BELIEVE ONE OVER THE OTHER.

WHY?
>> Ben: THEY WERE...

THEY WERE VERY CLOSE.
>> Adam: YOU KNOW THAT THE ONLY

GROUNDS UNDER WHICH YOU CAN
CONTEST THIS WILL IS IF YOU CAN

PROVE THAT BLAKE CARRINGTON
EXERTED UNDO INFLUENCE OVER YOUR

FATHER -- INFLUENCE WHICH
UNJUSTLY TURNED YOUR FATHER

AGAINST YOU.
NOW...

ISN'T IT A FACT THAT FOR YEARS,
NOT ONLY YOU BUT BLAKE AS WELL

HAD ABSOLUTELY NO CONTACT
WHATSOEVER WITH YOUR FATHER?

>> Ben: THAT'S WHAT HE CLAIMS.
>> Adam:

WELL...WE CERTAINLY HAVE
WITNESSES TO THAT EFFECT,

DON'T WE?
DID YOU MAKE ANY EFFORT TO

CONTACT HIM?
>> Ben: HE WOULDN'T SEE ME.

>> Adam: WHEN DID HE TELL YOU
THAT -- RIGHT AFTER THE FIRE?

>> Ben: YES.
>> Adam: AFTER THAT, DID YOU TRY

TO CALL HIM OR VISIT HIM OR SEE
HIM?

DID YOU EVER ONCE DURING ALL
THOSE LONG YEARS TRY TO TELL HIM

YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY?
IT WASN'T UNTIL YOU FOUND OUT

ABOUT THE FORTUNE THAT YOU STOOD
TO GAIN -- ISN'T THAT RIGHT?

>> Ben: WHEN I HEARD ABOUT MY
FATHER'S DEATH --

>> Adam: YOU ALSO HEARD ABOUT
HIS WILL, CORRECT?

>> Blake: YES, BUT --
>> Adam: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.

>> Dex: YOU'RE HAWKINS, RIGHT?

>> Hawkins: THAT'S MR. HAWKINS,
FRIEND.

>> Dex: I SEE.
AND YOU'RE THE FOREMAN OUT AT

THE PIPELINE SITE.
THAT RIGHT, UH, MISTER?

>> Hawkins: YEAH.
BUT AS FAR AS YOU'RE CONCERNED,

YOU'D BETTER KEEP MOVING WEST.
>> Dex: OH, WELL, NOTHING

AVAILABLE?
>> Hawkins: MAYBE, MAYBE NOT.

IN YOUR CASE, I'D SUGGEST THE
SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY.

THEY'RE LOOKING FOR LETTUCE
PICKERS THERE.

>> Dex:
WELL, THAT'S GOOD.

THAT, UH, THAT'S VERY GOOD,
BECAUSE YOU'RE GONNA BE LOOKING

FOR A JOB, PAL.
I'M THE DEX -- AS IN LEX-DEX.

ACCORDING TO THIS REPORT, YOU
HAVE SOME EXPLAINING TO DO.

>> Hawkins: I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THAT REPORT IS YOU'VE GOT --

>> Dex: MISSING PIPELINE,
MISSING EQUIPMENT.

I'VE GOT OVERTIME LISTED FOR
WORKERS THAT DON'T EXIST.

IS THIS YOUR DOING, HAWKINS?
>> Hawkins: I DON'T KNOW WHAT

YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
>> Dex: THEN I'VE GOT TWO

REASONS FOR FIRING YOU.
EITHER YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR

THIS SCAM, OR AS MY FOREMAN, YOU
SHOULD KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING

ABOUT.
EAT YOUR LUNCH, HAWKINS.

THEN GO PICK UP YOUR GEAR AND
GET OFF MY PROPERTY, OR I'LL

THROW YOU OFF.
>> Carl:

CARESS, I PREDICT AT LEAST ONE
YEAR ON THE BEST-SELLER LIST.

>> Caress: I PROMISED YOU A
BLOCKBUSTER, AND I DELIVERED.

>> Carl: WHAT YOU DELIVERED WAS
YOUR SISTER'S HEAD ON A SILVER

PLATTER.
>> Caress: IF YOU'RE WORRIED

ABOUT A LAWSUIT, CARL, DON'T BE.
ALEXIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN PUBLIC

PROPERTY.
JUST ASK HER HUSBANDS.

WELL, HERE'S TO SUCCESS -- A
FORTUNE FOR YOUR PUBLISHING

HOUSE, SERIAL AND MOVIE RIGHTS
FOR ME.

>> Carl: UH-UH.
>> Caress: CARL, THIS IS OUR

MOMENT OF TRIUMPH.
COME ON, A TOAST.

>> Carl: LATER, MY DEAR.
YOU SAID TO GET THE PRESSES

ROLLING.
THEY WON'T ROLL WITHOUT THIS.

LET ME PUT THIS IN THE MAIL TO
NEW YORK, AND I'LL BE RIGHT

BACK.
>> Caress: ALL RIGHT.

WHO SAID THAT SOUR GRAPES CAN'T

BE SWEET?
>> Dominique: JOEY, HAVE YOU

SEEN MY DAUGHTER ANYWHERE IN THE
LAST COUPLE OF HOURS?

>> JACKIE?
>> Dominique: YES.

>> NO, I HAVEN'T.
SHE MIGHT BE OUT AT THE TENNIS

COURTS.
>> Dominique: OH, NO. I LOOKED.

SHE ISN'T THERE.
>> MRS. COLBY?

>> Alexis: YES, I HAVE AN
APPOINTMENT WITH THE MANAGER,

BUT I THINK I'M A LITTLE EARLY.
>> NO, NOT AT ALL.

BUT I'LL GO LOOK FOR HIM.
>> Alexis: THANK YOU.

OH, DOMINIQUE, WHAT A SURPRISE.
BORED WITH THE TRIAL ALREADY?

>> Dominique: I LEFT THE
COURTROOM FOR PERSONAL REASONS,

ALEXIS.
>> Alexis: PERSONAL, YES.

WORD HAS IT THESE DAYS THAT HIS
NAME IS GARRETT BOYDSTON.

>> Dominique: GARRETT BOYDSTON
IS NONE OF YOUR DAMNED BUSINESS,

ALEXIS.
BUT AS YOU ARE HERE...

>> Alexis: YES?
>> Dominique: ...I'D LIKE TO

TELL YOU THAT I HAVE DEALT WITH
SOME LOWDOWN, DIRTY FIGHTERS, AS

LOW AS THEY COME, BUT YOU'VE
GIVEN THEM A NEW, FILTHY

MEANING.
>> Alexis: DON'T TELL ME THAT

YOU'RE POUTING BECAUSE I MISSED
YOUR PERFORMANCE ON THE STAND.

THE FACT IS, I'VE SEEN YOUR ACT.
>> Dominique: I THOUGHT YOU LEFT

BECAUSE YOU REALIZED THAT YOU
HAD ORGANIZED THIS SICK

SIDESHOW.
>> Alexis:

I KNOW WHAT IT IS.
SOMEBODY SAID SOMETHING TO HURT

YOUR BELOVED BLAKE.
IS THAT IT? WHAT A PITY.

>> Dominique: BLAKE CAN TAKE
CARE OF BLAKE, AND HE WILL.

BUT FOR YOU AND BEN TO VIOLATE
GRAVES, DRAG MY PARENTS INTO

THIS -- I SAT THERE WHILE YOUR
LAWYER DEMEANED MY LAST PRECIOUS

HOURS WITH MY FATHER, REFERRING
TO THE TRUTH AS A FAIRY TALE

TOLD TO ME ON MY MOTHER'S KNEE.
FOR THAT, ALEXIS, I COULD KILL

YOU.
>> Alexis: THEN YOU'D BE BACK ON

THE STAND, PERFORMING AGAIN,
WOULDN'T YOU?

IF THE TRUTH DOES HURT, AND IT
OBVIOUSLY DOES, WHAT DO YOU

EXPECT ME TO DO ABOUT IT?
>> Dominique: WHY, YOU DIRTY

LITTLE --
>> Alexis: DON'T CHOKE ON YOUR

WORDS.
SPIT IT OUT.

OR HAS THE FORMER NIGHTCLUB
QUEEN BECOME TOO MUCH OF A LADY

THESE DAYS?
WHICHEVER.

ALL I KNOW IS THERE ARE ONLY TWO
KINDS OF WONDERS IN THIS

WORLD -- GUTLESS AND MY KIND.
>> Crenshaw: NOW, MR. FRANKLIN,

DO YOU REMEMBER THE DAY OF
ELLEN CARRINGTON'S DEATH?

>> Franklin: OH, SURE.
NICE WOMAN.

SHE WAS ALWAYS NICE TO ME.
A TRAGEDY.

>> Crenshaw: YOU WORKED FOR
TOM CARRINGTON AT THAT TIME,

DIDN'T YOU?
>> Franklin: OH, FOR YEARS,

SURE.
A HARD MAN.

HE -- HE WAS, UH, FAIR --
ALWAYS FAIR.

>> Crenshaw: I'M SURE HE WAS.
BUT THE DAY IN QUESTION -- THE

DAY OF THE FIRE -- WHERE WERE
YOU?

>> Franklin: IN THE FIELD.
I MEAN, THAT WAS ONE HELL OF A

DAY, LET ME TELL YOU.
WE HAD THIS DERRICK THAT ALMOST

COLLAPSED.
WE HAD A MAN STRANDED 20 FEET UP

IN THE AIR.
THE YOUNG CARRINGTON WENT UP

THERE AND GOT HIM DOWN.
AND THEN THE NEWS OF THE FIRE

THAT KILLED --
>> Crenshaw: EXCUSE ME,

MR. FRANKLIN.

THERE WAS A CARRINGTON IN THE
FIELD WITH YOU?

>> Franklin: YEAH, SURE.
HE WAS THE ONE THAT WAS GETTING

THE YOUNG FELLOW OFF THE DERRICK
WHEN WE GOT NEWS OF THE FIRE.

>> Crenshaw: THE YOUNG
CARRINGTON IN THE FIELD WITH YOU

THE DAY OF THE FIRE -- IS HE IN
THIS COURTROOM?

>> Franklin: WELL, YEAH.
THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT,

ISN'T IT?
>> Crenshaw: VERY CAREFULLY,

MR. FRANKLIN, WOULD YOU POINT TO
THAT MAN?

IT WAS HIM -- BEN CARRINGTON.

>> Judge Thurlowe: ORDER!
>> Caress: ALEXIS, WHAT ARE YOU

DOING HERE?
>> Alexis: YOU SEE HOW CLOSE WE

ARE?
I WAS GOING TO ASK YOU EXACTLY

THE SAME THING.
>> Caress: WELL, UM, AN OLD

FRIEND OF MINE -- I HAVEN'T SEEN
HER IN AGES.

>> Alexis: YES, AND YOU'RE
CELEBRATING -- HOW EXCITING.

WELL, WHERE IS SHE?
I'D LOVE TO MEET HER.

>> Caress: SHE?
SHE, UM...

ALEXIS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
>> Alexis: WELL, ACTUALLY, COURT

IS IN RECESS FOR LUNCH, AND I'VE
COME TO ASK YOU FOR YOUR

AUTOGRAPH.
CONGRATULATIONS.

"SISTER DEAREST" IS A WONDERFUL
PIECE OF FICTION.

>> Caress: YOU MEAN YOU'VE READ
IT?

>> Alexis: OF COURSE I'VE READ
IT.

IT DOESN'T TAKE VERY LONG.
IT'S LIKE A COMIC BOOK WITHOUT

THE PICTURES.
SIGN IT, WILL YOU?

IT'S GOING TO BE VERY VALUABLE
ONE DAY AS A RARE MANUSCRIPT.

>> Caress: RARE?
IT'S GOING TO BE A BEST SELLER.

>> Alexis:
A BOOK HAS TO BE PUBLISHED TO BE

A BEST SELLER, CASSIE.
>> Caress: IT IS BEING

PUBLISHED, ALEXIS, AND THERE'S
NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO STOP IT.

>> Alexis: HAVEN'T YOU HEARD?
I BOUGHT THE PUBLISHING HOUSE,

AND AS OF NOW, I OWN THE RIGHTS
TO THIS PIECE OF FILTH.

I ALSO CONTROL ITS FATE.
IT'S NOT REALLY WORTH BURNING,

BUT WHAT ELSE DOES ONE DO WITH
TRASH?

>> Caress: I'LL SEE YOU DEAD FOR
THIS, ALEXIS.

>> Alexis: IF YOU'RE GOING TO
THREATEN ME, I SUGGEST THAT YOU

CALL ME WHEN YOU CAN STAND ON
YOUR OWN TWO FEET.

YOU'VE GOT MY NUMBER,
AND I'VE CERTAINLY GOT YOURS.

>> PLEASE STATE YOUR FULL NAME.
>> Claudia: CLAUDIA BLAISDEL

CARRINGTON.
>> Crenshaw: MRS. CARRINGTON,

YOU'VE KNOWN THE DEFENDANT FOR
QUITE SOME TIME, HAVEN'T YOU?

>> Claudia: YES. SEVERAL YEARS.
>> Crenshaw: IN FACT, YOUR LATE

HUSBAND, MATTHEW BLAISDEL, WAS A
COMPETITOR OF HIS, WASN'T HE?

>> Claudia: WELL...
I WOULDN'T EXACTLY SAY

"COMPETITOR."
>> Crenshaw: WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY

THAT?
>> Claudia: IT'S RATHER HARD TO

COMPETE WITH A MAN AS POWERFUL
AS BLAKE CARRINGTON.

>> Crenshaw: BUT THE FACT
REMAINS THAT MATTHEW BLAISDEL

AND WALTER LANKERSHIM, HIS
PARTNER, DID COMPETE.

>> Claudia: YES.
>> Crenshaw: WHAT WAS THE RESULT

OF THAT COMPETITION?
>> Claudia: THEY LOST.

>> Crenshaw: AFTER
BLAKE CARRINGTON DESTROYED

MATTHEW BLAISDEL --
>> Adam: OBJECTION -- LEADING

THE WITNESS.
>> Judge Thurlowe: SUSTAINED.

>> Crenshaw: LET ME REWORD THIS.
AFTER YOUR LATE HUSBAND LOST

EVERYTHING TO DENVER CARRINGTON,
YOU SUFFERED A NERVOUS

BREAKDOWN, DIDN'T YOU?
>> Claudia: YES, I DID.

BUT BLAKE SAW THAT I WAS TAKEN
CARE OF.

HE COULD BE VERY KIND AND VERY
GENEROUS TO PEOPLE THAT UPHELD

HIS STANDARDS.
>> Crenshaw: HIS STANDARDS?

I SEE.
ISN'T IT TRUE THAT, FOR A TIME,

YOU WERE THE MANAGER OF
LA MIRAGE?

>> Claudia: YES, THAT'S TRUE.
>> Crenshaw: ARE YOU NOW?

>> Claudia: NO, I'M NOT.
I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT I WAS

REPLACED.
>> Crenshaw: IN OTHER WORDS,

BLAKE CARRINGTON OFFERED YOU THE
POSITION AND THEN TOOK IT AWAY

WITHOUT CAUSE?
IS THAT CORRECT?

>> Claudia: YES, I SUPPOSE SO.
I THINK IT'S THE SAME THING THAT

HAPPENED WITH THE OIL WELL --
WITH MY INHERITANCE.

>> Crenshaw: OIL WELL?
YOU INHERITED AN OIL WELL?

>> Claudia: FROM
WALTER LANKERSHIM.

HE LEFT IT TO ME IN HIS WILL.
>> Crenshaw: I SEE.

WELL, THAT MUST HAVE DELIGHTED
YOU.

>> Claudia: YES, IT DID.
IT WAS MY ONE CHANCE TO REALLY

BREAK AWAY, TO BE INDEPENDENT.
>> Crenshaw: WHAT HAPPENED?

>> Claudia: WALTER NEEDED SOME
MONEY, AND SO HE WENT TO THE ONE

PERSON THAT COULD HELP.
>> Crenshaw: BLAKE CARRINGTON?

>> Claudia: YES.
AND THEN WALTER COULDN'T PAY

BACK THE LOAN.
HE PUT THE WELL UP AS

COLLATERAL, AND WHEN HE COULDN'T
PAY THE LOAN, THE WELL WENT TO

DENVER CARRINGTON.
NOW, I OFFERED TO PAY BACK THAT

LOAN AND MAKE GOOD ON IT, AND
THAT WELL REALLY SHOULD BE MINE.

>> Crenshaw: BUT SURELY YOU TOLD
BLAKE CARRINGTON THIS.

WHAT WAS HIS RESPONSE?
>> Claudia: WELL, HE SAID THAT,

UH...
HE SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING

THAT HE COULD DO, THAT THE WELL
JUST BELONGED TO

DENVER CARRINGTON.
>> Crenshaw: MRS. CARRINGTON...

WHAT DID YOU DO TO TURN SO
POWERFUL A MAN AGAINST YOU?

WAS THERE SOMETHING?
>> Claudia: I MARRIED HIS SON

ADAM.
>> Crenshaw: AND IN RETURN?

>> Claudia: AND IN RETURN, HE
LIED TO ME...

AND HE TOOK AWAY MY ONE CHANCE
TO BE INDEPENDENT.

>> Crenshaw: THANK YOU.
>> Blake: WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

>> Adam: I'VE GOT TO
CROSS-EXAMINE HER.

>> Blake: NO, NO.
I WILL NOT DIGNIFY THOSE

ACCUSATIONS WITH ANSWERS.
>> Adam: NOT TO CROSS-EXAMINE

HER COULD BE VERY, VERY
DAMAGING.

>> Blake: YOU HEARD WHAT I SAID.
NO.

>> Adam: NO QUESTIONS, YOUR
HONOR.

>> Judge Thurlowe: VERY WELL.
THIS COURT IS IN RECESS.

>> Krystle: CLAUDIA...
HOW COULD YOU DO THAT?

HOW COULD YOU SAY THOSE THINGS
ABOUT BLAKE?

>> Claudia: HE TWISTED MY WORDS.
>> Krystle: I WAS IN THAT

COURTROOM.
I DIDN'T HEAR ANYONE TWIST YOUR

WORDS.
>> Claudia: I DIDN'T WANT TO

TESTIFY.
>> Krystle: IT DIDN'T SOUND THAT

WAY.
ARE YOU SO DESPERATE THAT YOU'D

TURN AGAINST THE MAN WHO'S
HELPED YOU THE MOST?

>> Claudia: MAYBE THE PRICE FOR
HIS HELP IS JUST TOO HIGH.

>> Krystle: WHAT PRICE, CLAUDIA?
LOYALTY? LOVE?

OR IS IT YOUR DAMNED OIL WELL?
I LISTENED TO YOUR WORDS IN

THERE, AND ALL I COULD HEAR WAS
GREED.

HOW COULD YOU TURN AGAINST BLAKE
LIKE THAT?

>> Claudia: HOW CAN YOU EXPECT
ME TO DEFEND A MAN WHO WOULD

KILL HIS OWN MOTHER?
>> Steven: WE'VE ONLY GOT HALF

AN HOUR LEFT IN THIS RECESS.
YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT

SOMETHING TO EAT?
>> Blake: I'M NOT VERY HUNGRY,

STEVEN.
WHERE ARE YOU GOING, BEN?

>> Ben: TO WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE OUT
OF HERE.

>> Blake: DON'T YOU HAVE THE
STOMACH ENOUGH TO FACE UP TO

WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING IN THAT
COURTROOM?

>> Ben: ANYTHING WE HAVE TO SAY
TO OR ABOUT ONE ANOTHER, WE SAY

IN THERE.
>> Blake: WHATEVER I HAVE TO

SAY, I'M GONNA SAY HERE AND
RIGHT NOW.

THAT MAN FRANKLIN --
>> Ben: WHAT ABOUT HIM?

>> Blake: AT FIRST, I DIDN'T
REMEMBER HIM, BUT THEN WHEN HE

BEGAN GIVING THAT TRUMPED-UP
TESTIMONY ABOUT ME AND THE DAY

THAT MAMA DIED, I DID REMEMBER
HIM -- ESPECIALLY ON THAT DAY.

THAT WAS THE DAY THAT ONE OF OUR
RIGGERS WAS INJURED AND FRANKLIN

AND I HAD TO CLIMB UP ON A
DERRICK TO GET HIM DOWN, AND HE

AND I DID.
WE PULLED HIM DOWN TOGETHER.

>> Ben: GOOD STORY, BLAKE.
TOO BAD FOR YOU THAT FRANKLIN

REMEMBERS THINGS DIFFERENTLY.
>> Blake: HOW MUCH DID IT COST

YOU?
HOW MUCH DID YOU HAVE TO PAY HIM

TO LIE?
>> Ben: AN INTERESTING QUESTION,

COMING FROM YOU.
BUT A NATURAL QUESTION, RIGHT?

ISN'T THAT THE WAY YOU BUILT UP
YOUR GLORIOUS AND ALMIGHTY

EMPIRE OVER THE YEARS -- BY
PAYING OFF PEOPLE WHEN ALL ELSE

FAILED?
>> Steven: DAD, DON'T!

YOU ALREADY WASHED YOUR HANDS.
DON'T DIRTY THEM ON HIM.

>> Alexis: HELLO?
>> Ben: WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU

BEEN?
>> Alexis: WHAT DO YOU MEAN,

WHERE HAVE I BEEN?
I HAD IMPORTANT THINGS TO ATTEND

TO.
>> Ben: IS ANYTHING MORE

IMPORTANT THAN WHAT'S GOING ON
HERE?

>> Alexis: I WAS THERE FOR A
WHILE, AND THEN I HAD TO LEAVE.

I'M NOT INTO SPECTATOR SPORTS,
AND SITTING AROUND HAS NEVER WON

ANYBODY $125 MILLION.
BY THE WAY, I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN

LIVING IN THE AUSTRALIAN OUTBACK
FOR YEARS, BUT WHATEVER HAPPENED

TO YOUR BACKBONE IN THAT TIME?
>> Ben: WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO

MEAN?
>> Alexis: THAT MEANS THAT IF

THEY CALL YOU BACK TO THE STAND,
YOU'D BETTER BE STRONGER, BEN.

I SAW YOU IN ACTION THIS
MORNING, AND YOU WERE WEAK TO

SAY THE LEAST.
NOW, THIS IS NO TIME TO FALTER.

WE ARE FIGHTING A BATTLE THAT
COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

SO TAKE A LESSON FROM AN
EXPERT -- ME -- AND GIVE THEM

HELL.

>> Crenshaw: BLAKE CARRINGTON
TOOK YOU TO COURT IN A CUSTODY

BATTLE OVER YOUR OWN SON, DIDN'T
HE?

>> Steven: YES, BUT --
>> Crenshaw: JUST ANSWER MY

QUESTIONS.
WHY DID HE TAKE YOU TO COURT?

>> Steven: HE DISAPPROVED OF MY
LIFESTYLE.

>> Crenshaw: BLAKE CARRINGTON
DISAPPROVED?

SO HE TRIED TO TAKE YOUR SON
AWAY?

>> Steven: WE CAME TO TERMS.
>> Crenshaw: THAT WAS

CONVENIENT.
BUT THAT WASN'T THE FIRST TIME

YOU AND YOUR FATHER MET IN
COURT, WAS IT?

THE TED DINARD CASE?
HE WAS YOUR LOVER, WASN'T HE?

WASN'T HE?

>> Steven: WE HAD A
RELATIONSHIP, YES, BUT THAT WAS

A LONG TIME AGO, AND WHATEVER
HAPPENED THEN --

>> Crenshaw: THAT'S THE POINT
I'M TRYING TO GET TO --

WHAT HAPPENED?
WHY DON'T YOU TELL THE COURT SO

THEY CAN ALL HEAR WHAT HAPPENED
TO TED DINARD?

>> Steven: THERE WAS AN
ACCIDENT.

>> Crenshaw: AN ACCIDENT?
TED DINARD DIED, DIDN'T HE, AT

THE HANDS OF YOUR FATHER,
BLAKE CARRINGTON?

THIS ACCIDENT RESULTED IN YOUR
LOVER'S DEATH!

>> Adam: OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.
COUNSEL IS BADGERING THE

WITNESS.
>> Judge Thurlowe: COUNSEL,

SIMPLY ASK THE QUESTION.
>> Crenshaw: IF I REMEMBER,

MR. CARRINGTON, THERE WAS AN
ARGUMENT AT THE TIME.

WHAT WAS THAT ABOUT?
>> Steven: MY FATHER WANTED ME

TO STOP SEEING TED.
>> Crenshaw: YOUR LOVER DIED

AFTER BEING PHYSICALLY ATTACKED
BY BLAKE CARRINGTON.

>> Steven: I FORGAVE MY FATHER A
LONG TIME AGO.

>> Crenshaw: YOUR FATHER
DISAPPROVED OF YOUR LOVE FOR

ANOTHER MAN.
THAT MAN DIED.

YOU FATHER WENT TO TRIAL FOR
THAT.

YOU TESTIFIED AT THAT TRIAL
AGAINST HIM, DIDN'T YOU?

A SIMPLE YES OR NO.
>> Steven: THERE'S NOTHING

SIMPLE ABOUT IT.
>> Crenshaw: YOU TESTIFIED

AGAINST HIM -- YES OR NO?!
>> Steven: YES.

>> Crenshaw: WHAT WAS THE
OUTCOME OF THAT TRIAL?

>> Steven: My father was found
guilty.

>> Crenshaw: PARDON?
>> Steven: MY FATHER WAS FOUND

GUILTY.
>> Crenshaw: GUILTY OF WHAT?

>> Steven: VOLUNTARY
MANSLAUGHTER.

>> Crenshaw: VOLUNTARY
MANSLAUGHTER!

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.
PLAINTIFF RESTS.

>> Judge Thurlowe: YOU MAY STEP
DOWN.

>> Steven: DAD, I'M SORRY.
THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO.

>> Judge Thurlowe: THE PLAINTIFF
HAS NOW RESTED HIS CASE.

YOU MAY PRESENT YOUR FIRST
WITNESS.

>> Adam: ARE YOU READY, FATHER?
>> Blake: YOU'RE DAMNED RIGHT I

AM.
>> Adam: WE'VE HEARD SEVERAL

BIZARRE STORIES HERE TODAY, ALL
ASSERTING NOT ONLY THAT YOU ARE

RESPONSIBLE FOR
ELLEN CARRINGTON'S DEATH, BUT

ALSO THAT YOU LIED ABOUT IT AND
THAT YOU TURNED YOUR FATHER

AGAINST HIS YOUNGER SON.
NOW, MR. CARRINGTON...

WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL US THE
TRUTH?

>> Blake: MY FATHER WAS IN
NEW ORLEANS ON BUSINESS.

MY BROTHER, BEN, AND I WERE TO
TAKE CARE OF MY MOTHER, WHO HAD

BROKEN HER LEG AND WAS
BEDRIDDEN.

IT WAS AN EMERGENCY PHONE CALL
FROM THE FIELD, AS MR. FRANKLIN

HAS STATED.
THAT MEANT THAT ONE OF US HAD TO

GO OUT AND HANDLE THAT EMERGENCY
WHILE THE OTHER ONE STAYED AT

HOME WITH MY MOTHER.
>> Adam: WHO STAYED BEHIND?

>> Blake: MY BROTHER, BEN.
I WENT OUT INTO THE FIELD.

>> Adam: AND WHAT HAPPENED?
>> Blake: HE LEFT HER ALONE,

HELPLESS.
AT THE TIME OF THE FIRE, HE WAS

GETTING DRUNK IN TOWN, CRAWLING
BETWEEN THE SHEETS WITH A

LOCAL --
>> Crenshaw: OBJECTION, YOUR

HONOR.
>> Judge Thurlowe: OVERRULED.

>> Blake: MY MOTHER WAS LEFT
ALONE TO DIE.

>> Adam: IN BRINGING THIS
ACTION, BEN CARRINGTON CLAIMS

THAT YOU EXERTED UNDO INFLUENCE
OVER YOUR FATHER, RESULTING IN

HIS BEING DISOWNED BY HIS
FATHER.

DID YOU EVER EXERT SUCH UNDO
INFLUENCE?

>> Blake: I DIDN'T HAVE TO.
BEN, ALL ON HIS OWN, TURNED MY

FATHER AGAINST HIM.
>> Adam: AT ANY TIME AT ALL,

WERE YOU THE CAUSE OF
BEN CARRINGTON'S EXCLUSION FROM

YOUR FATHER'S LIFE OR FROM HIS
WILL?

>> Blake: NO.
MY FATHER DISOWNED BEN YEARS

AGO.
THE DAY MY MOTHER DIED, HE NEVER

FORGAVE HIM AND WENT ALL THROUGH
HIS LIFE, TO THE MOMENT OF HIS

DEATH.
>> Adam: AND AT THE TIME OF HIS

DEATH, WAS TOM CARRINGTON OF
SOUND MIND?

>> Blake: YES. ABSOLUTELY.
NO ONE INFLUENCED MY FATHER.

HE WAS HIS OWN MAN.
>> Adam: I THANK YOU.

>> Judge Thurlowe: MR. CRENSHAW,
DO YOU WISH TO CROSS-EXAMINE?

>> Crenshaw: I CERTAINLY WOULD,
YOUR HONOR.

SO YOU KNOW WHAT TOM CARRINGTON
WAS THINKING?

IS THAT CORRECT?
>> Blake: WHEN IT COMES TO BEN,

YES.
>> Crenshaw: I SEE.

YOU MUST HAVE BEEN VERY CLOSE.
BY THE WAY, DID YOU CALL HIM DAD

OR FATHER OR...TOM?
>> Blake: TOM.

>> Crenshaw: WAS THAT ALWAYS THE
CASE, MR. CARRINGTON?

MR. CARRINGTON?
>> Blake: NO, IT WASN'T.

>> Crenshaw: ISN'T IT A FACT
THAT THIS MAN TO WHOM YOU WERE

SO CLOSE YOU KNEW WHAT HE WAS
THINKING -- THAT YOU AND THIS

MAN HAD BEEN ESTRANGED FOR
YEARS?

>> Blake: WE HAD HAD SOME
DISAGREEMENTS.

>> Crenshaw: IT CERTAINLY SEEMS
THAT WAY.

AND YET YOU CLAIM TO KNOW THE
INNERMOST THOUGHTS OF A DYING

MAN YOU HADN'T SPOKEN TO FOR
YEARS.

WOULD YOU, MR. CARRINGTON,
EXPLAIN TO THE COURT WHY YOU

WANTED TO KEEP YOUR FATHER'S
DEATH A SECRET FROM YOUR

BROTHER?
>> Blake: I SENT MY LAWYERS TO

SEARCH FOR HIM.
THEY LOOKED ALL OVER FOR HIM.

>> Crenshaw: YOU WENT HALFWAY
AROUND THE WORLD TO FIND YOUR

SON STEVEN WHEN EVERYONE TOLD
YOU HE WAS DEAD.

YOU FOUND HIM.
SEEMS TO ME YOU'RE A MAN WHO

COULD FIND ANYONE IF YOU WANTED
TO.

>> Blake: I HAVE SPENT YEARS
TRYING TO FORGET BEN CARRINGTON.

I HAVE NEVER FORGIVEN HIM, AND I
NEVER WILL.

AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, THE DAY
MY MOTHER DIED, MY BROTHER DIED.

>> Crenshaw: AND THAT DAY, YOU
BECAME TOM CARRINGTON'S ONLY SON

AND HEIR TO HIS ESTATE.
THANK YOU.

THAT'S ALL.
>> Judge Thurlowe: MR. CRENSHAW,

DO YOU HAVE ANY REBUTTAL
EVIDENCE YOU WISH TO PUT ON?

>> Crenshaw: YES, YOUR HONOR.
I'D LIKE TO CALL TO THE STAND

ALEXIS COLBY.

>> Dex: HAWKINS, GET OUT OF MY

WAY.
>> Hawkins: WHAT IF I LIKE IT

HERE?
>> Dex: I'M NOT IN THE MOOD FOR

THIS.
OH, I'M SORRY!

>> Jennifer: FOR WHAT, THAT I'M
A WOMAN?

>> Dex: YES.
NO, NO, I MEAN, UH...

LOOK, I USUALLY DON'T GO AROUND
SHOVING PEOPLE.

IT'S JUST BEEN A ROUGH COUPLE OF
WEEKS.

>> Jennifer: FOR YOU OR THE
PEOPLE YOU SHOVE AROUND?

>> Dex: EXCUSE ME, MISS...
>> Jennifer: JENNIFER --

JUST PLAIN JENNIFER, MR. DEXTER.
I WORK FOR YOU.

>> Dex: WELL, THEN, IN THAT
CASE, LET ME BUY YOU A DRINK.

AND IT'S JUST DEX.
A BEER?

>> Jennifer: YEAH, FINE.
>> Dex: TWO BEERS -- WHATEVER

YOU GOT ON TAP.
I'VE BEEN OUT TO THIS SITE A

NUMBER OF TIMES, BUT IT'S FUNNY
THAT I HAVEN'T RUN INTO YOU.

THAT'S GOOD.
YOU PUT IN LONG HOURS.

OHH!

>> Jennifer: ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?
>> Dex: YEAH, I JUST GOT

BRUISED, IS ALL.
>> Jennifer: YOU KNOW, UM, I CAN

TAKE CARE OF THAT FOR YOU.
>> Dex: WELL, THANKS, BUT, UH,

I'LL PASS.
I THINK I NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN FOR A WHILE.
>> Crenshaw: MRS. COLBY, YOU

WERE IN THE COURTROOM EARLIER
WHEN BEN CARRINGTON TESTIFIED.

>> Alexis: YES.
>> Crenshaw: WAS HE TELLING THE

TRUTH IN REGARD TO THE
CIRCUMSTANCES AROUND HIS

MOTHER'S DEATH?
>> Alexis: YES, HE WAS -- THE

ABSOLUTE TRUTH.
>> Crenshaw: THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH.

WOULD YOU TELL THE COURT WHO WAS
OUT IN THE FIELD AT THE TIME IN

QUESTION?
>> Alexis: IT WAS

BEN CARRINGTON.
>> Crenshaw: EXCUSE ME.

WOULD YOU REPEAT THAT, PLEASE, A
LITTLE LOUDER?

>> Alexis: CERTAINLY.
BEN CARRINGTON WAS OUT WORKING

IN THE OIL FIELD WHILE HIS
BROTHER, BLAKE, WAS IN TOWN,

DRUNK, SEDUCING A YOUNG GIRL.
>> Crenshaw: MRS. COLBY, HOW

COULD YOU POSSIBLY KNOW THAT?
>> Alexis: BECAUSE I WAS THE

GIRL HE SEDUCED.

>> Judge Thurlowe: ORDER!

>> Crenshaw: SO YOUR TESTIMONY
IS THAT WHILE BLAKE CARRINGTON'S

MOTHER PERISHED IN THAT TRAGIC
FIRE, HE WAS IN BED WITH YOU?

>> Alexis: YES.
WE WERE ENGAGED, AND BLAKE WAS

EXTREMELY ARDENT.
I WAS VERY YOUNG AND, UH, VERY

INNOCENT, AND I WAS SO MUCH IN
LOVE WITH HIM THAT I WOULD HAVE

DONE ANYTHING.
I WOULD HAVE LIED FOR HIM --

ANYTHING.
>> Crenshaw: WHY DID YOU KEEP

THIS A SECRET UNTIL NOW?
>> Alexis: BECAUSE I WAS

COMPLETELY UNDER BLAKE'S SPELL.
HE TOLD ME THAT IF I KEPT QUIET

ABOUT THIS AND LET BEN TAKE THE
BLAME FOR THEIR MOTHER'S DEATH,

THAT HE WOULD NOT BACK OUT OF
OUR MARRIAGE.

>> Blake: SHE'S LYING!
I DEMAND THAT THIS CASE BE

THROWN OUT OF COURT!
>> Judge Thurlowe: I WILL HAVE

ORDER IN THIS COURT!
>> Alexis: PERHAPS I WAS

FOOLISH, BUT I WAS SO YOUNG AND
SO IN LOVE.

AND BLAKE ALWAYS KNEW HOW TO GET
EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTED FROM ME.

>> Crenshaw: THANK YOU.
YOUR WITNESS.

>> Adam: YOUR HONOR, MAY WE HAVE
A MOMENT, PLEASE?

>> Judge Thurlowe: ALL RIGHT,
MR. CARRINGTON -- A MOMENT.

>> Adam: THANK YOU.
FATHER, I MUST NOT CROSS-EXAMINE

MOTHER.
I COULDN'T BEGIN TO BE AS TOUGH

AS I'D HAVE TO BE.
>> Blake: YOU MEAN YOU WANT

MRS. DAVIS TO HANDLE THIS
INTERROGATION?

>> Adam: IF YOU'RE WILLING.
WE'VE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT IT.

>> Blake: FINE.
JUST BE AS TOUGH AS YOU KNOW HOW

TO BE.
>> Davis: APPARENTLY A LOT OF

MEN HAVE KNOWN HOW TO GET WHAT
THEY WANT FROM YOU.

>> Alexis: I BEG YOUR PARDON?
>> Davis: MRS. COLBY -- OH,

EXCUSE ME.
IS IT MRS. DEXTER?

>> Alexis: COLBY.
>> Davis: AH, YES.

YOU'RE RECENTLY DIVORCED.
THAT MAKES YOU MRS. COLBY AGAIN.

THAT WOULD BE
MRS. CECIL COLBY -- YOUR SECOND

HUSBAND AFTER YOUR FIRST
HUSBAND, BLAKE CARRINGTON, BUT

BEFORE YOUR THIRD HUSBAND,
MR. DEXTER.

>> Alexis: I DON'T QUITE
UNDERSTAND THE POINT OF THESE

QUESTIONS.
>> Davis: I'M CURIOUS,

MRS. CARRINGTON -- COLBY --
DEXTER-COLBY, AS TO WHY YOU

WOULD FABRICATE THIS STORY.
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

>> Alexis: NOTHING.
I AM TELLING THE TRUTH.

BLAKE CARRINGTON IS A VINDICTIVE
TYRANT WHO HAS LIED AND

TERRORIZED PEOPLE ALL HIS LIFE.
>> Davis: A VINDICTIVE TYRANT?

YOU KNOW THIS FOR A FACT?
>> Alexis: YES, I WAS MARRIED TO

THE MAN FOR SEVEN YEARS.
>> Davis: YOU WERE MARRIED TO

SEVERAL MEN, MRS. COLBY.
WERE THEY ALL VINDICTIVE

TYRANTS?
>> Alexis: MY SECOND HUSBAND

DIED, MS. DAVIS.
>> Davis: YES, MRS. COLBY, AND

IN YOUR ARMS, JUST LIKE A BLACK
WIDOW.

>> Crenshaw: OBJECTION, YOUR
HONOR!

>> Judge Thurlowe: SUSTAINED.
>> Davis: LET'S TALK ABOUT

BEN CARRINGTON, SHALL WE?
DIDN'T YOU RECENTLY FLY TO

AUSTRALIA, AND WASN'T YOUR
PURPOSE TO FIND BEN WITHOUT

TELLING HIS BROTHER, BLAKE?
>> Alexis: I DON'T HAVE ANY

OBLIGATION TO TELL
BLAKE CARRINGTON ANYTHING THAT I

DO, AND I FELT THAT BEN HAD A
RIGHT TO KNOW ABOUT HIS

INHERITANCE.
>> Davis: OF COURSE HE DOES.

BUT THAT'S NOT THE QUESTION
HERE.

THE QUESTION HERE IS WHY YOU HAD
TO BE THE MESSENGER.

WAS IT TO PROTECT
BEN CARRINGTON'S INTERESTS, A

MAN YOU HAVEN'T SEEN OR TALKED
TO IN YEARS?

OR TO WREAK VENGEANCE ON
BLAKE CARRINGTON, WHOM JUST TWO

WEEKS AGO YOU APPROACHED FOR A
RECONCILIATION?

>> Alexis: THAT IS NOT TRUE.
>> Davis: DIDN'T YOU FIND BEN

AND BRING HIM HERE FOR NO OTHER
REASON THAT TO STRIKE BACK AT

BLAKE CARRINGTON FOR ONCE AGAIN
REJECTING YOUR RATHER AMOROUS

ADVANCES?
>> Alexis: NO!

>> Davis: WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED
TO BELIEVE, MRS. COLBY -- YOUR

CLAIM THAT WHEN YOU WERE A YOUNG
GIRL, BLAKE CARRINGTON TOOK

ADVANTAGE OF YOU AND YOU HAVE
KEPT THIS TERRIBLE SECRET LOCKED

IN YOUR TENDER BOSOM FOR THESE
YEARS AND YEARS AND JUST NOW ARE

FEELING THE GUILT ABOUT IT?
>> Alexis: EVERYTHING THAT I

HAVE SAID IS TRUE.
ELLEN CARRINGTON BURNT TO DEATH

IN HER BED, WHILE HER SON,
BLAKE CARRINGTON, WAS IN ANOTHER

BED -- MINE.

>> Judge Thurlowe: ORDER.

>> Davis: NO FURTHER QUESTIONS,
YOUR HONOR.

>> Judge Thurlowe: THIS COURT IS
IN RECESS UNTIL TUESDAY AT A

TIME TO BE ANNOUNCED, WHEN I'LL
DELIVER MY DECISION.

>> ALL RISE!
