Here? >> ben: let's say it's in all of

Our best interests that Miss morrell return and serve

Out her full term. >> lopez: oh. And why is that?

I'll offer you even more Encouragement to lock her up

Again. [ telephone ringing in

Settle my scores. >> steven: hi.

You were there when I needed You.

I am really lucky to be alive, But I've embarrassed everybody,

Family to be a part of, amanda. There are a lot of ups and

Downs. >> amanda: I know.

But I don't think I can take the Downs anymore.

>> steven: I'll make a deal with You.

Next time you're on a downslide, Come to me again.

And this time, I promise, I'll Be there for you, okay?

On and the door open because you Were afraid of being alone?

>> danny: yes. >> claudia: well, remember what

I said to you? I said that you don't have to

Worry about being alone because If you believe in yourself,

Nobody can ever hurt you. Now no one can ever hurt me

Because for the first time in my Life, I really feel that I can

Make it on my own. Give me a hug.

>> danny: don't go. >> claudia: oh, honey, come

Here. Come here.

Of bouquets, aromas that covered Up the smell of what was really

Going on. >> krystle: claudia, amanda may

Be coming home from the hospital Today.

I would like this to be a happy Homecoming.

>> claudia: of course. And flowers will brighten her

Spirits, they'll brighten her Room.

And with any luck, they may even Cover up the real reasons why

She tried to kill herself. >> krystle: what has this family

Ever done to you besides loving You, supporting you?

>> claudia: come on, krystle, I was a mercy booking here, and

You know it. Having little old claudia around

Made the rest of you feel all The more superior.

>> krystle: blake has cared for You like his own daughter.

>> claudia: and you? What about you?

Did you care? >> krystle: you know I've cared.

>> claudia: you know, you've Always fascinated me.

While the rest of this family Manipulates and turns brother

Against brother, you stand by Radiating this glow of passive

Acceptance. You allow the treachery, and

That makes you the most Dangerous carrington of them

All. >> sammy jo: I know you too

Well. You didn't invite yourself over

Here just to admire my interior Decorating.

>> adam: what if I said it was Part of the reason?

>> sammy jo: adam, I've dealt With you before.

When you smile, it makes me Nervous.

So, why don't you just tell me The other part and leave?

>> adam: I ran into Clay fallmont at la mirage.

He couldn't stop talking about You.

>> sammy jo: what'd he say? >> adam: he thinks you are

Beautiful, exciting, and fresh. But I'd forget about it,

Sammy jo. I'm sure that it's a lost cause.

>> sammy jo: and what's that Supposed to mean?

>> adam: clay comes from a very Powerful family.

He likes a challenge in his Career and his women.

And frankly... >> sammy jo: frankly what?

>> adam: well, frankly, with a Background like yours, I don't

See you as a match for him. >> sammy jo: adam, with a

Background like mine, less can Make for more.

It makes you work harder to get Things and to hold on to them.

I'm a match for any man, Including clay fallmont.

>> adam: maybe you're right. Maybe that's why steven is so

Nervous about your dating clay. >> sammy jo: nervous? Why?

>> adam: well, it's obvious. Steven still finds it necessary

To make you arrange for time to See danny.

Now, if you married fallmont and Petitioned the courts for

Custody of danny, steven Wouldn't stand a chance, not up

Against a mother who is married To the son of a senator.

Would he?

>> caress: parked car in a dark Alley, ben?

This is a business deal. I'm not selling state secrets.

>> ben: get in. You demanded a $50,000 down

Stand in line behind me. >> dex: no, you don't

Understand. The other day amanda came to me,

Asking if we could be friends, Just friends.

I told her in so many words we Were better off not seeing each

Other again. Better off?

Alexis, she almost killed Herself.

>> alexis: I know. Oh, dex...

I've always thought of amanda as A -- a grown-up, an adult woman.

But when I saw her lying in that Hospital bed, all I saw was a

Frightened, vulnerable, little Girl.

You know something? I feel frightened and vulnerable

Now, too. >> dex: it's a hell of a note,

Isn't it, alexis? That it took something this

Tragic to stop us from clawing At each other.

>> alexis: I'm gonna go and Visit her later.

I'll tell her that you send your Regards.

>> krystle: well, what are you Doing here?

>> alexis: I've been asking you That question for years, and I

Still haven't heard a Satisfactory answer.

I am visiting amanda. >> krystle: without even the

Courtesy of a call first. You think you have free access

To this house and everyone in It, don't you?

>> alexis: nothing's for free in This life.

You of all people should know That.

After all, you've charged Enough.

>> krystle: amanda's resting. I don't think you should see her

Now. >> alexis: I'm really not

Interested in what you think. >> krystle: alexis...Before all

This happened, I warned you About amanda, but you didn't

Care what I thought or about Amanda.

You still don't. All you're worried about is

Avoiding the blame. Well, it's too late.

>> alexis: if you're quite Finished with today's

Pop-psychology lecture, I'm Going to see my daughter.

>> amanda: it's really lovely. Thanks.

>> alexis: Amanda, I've got to tell you

Something. When I saw you and dex in bed

Together, all I could think of Was my sense of betrayal.

>> amanda: I am so sorry. >> alexis: darling, please, let

Me finish.

You see, when people are hurt, They forget how much they love,

And they say things that can be Unforgivable.

>> amanda: then it's safer not To love, isn't it?

>> alexis: maybe it is, but it's A lot emptier.

>> amanda: I never meant to hurt You, never.

>> alexis: I know you didn't Now,and I never meant to hurt

You. And whatever it is that I said,

Amanda, I just want you to know That I love you.

And I'd give my life for you, Darling, I would.

>> amanda: come in.

>> blake: amanda, darling, I was Wonder--

>> amanda: hi, daddy. >> blake: are you all right,

Amanda? >> amanda: yeah, I'm fine.

>> blake: I'll be back in a Little while.

>> amanda: okay. >> alexis: I'm gonna be very

Busy in the next few weeks, but I just want you to know that

Whenever you want to, you'll be Able to reach me by telephone.

And whatever happens, darling, I Will always love you, always.

>> amanda: I love you, too. Thank you for my necklace.

It's so beautiful. >> alexis: it looks so beautiful

On you. You know, my mother gave that to

Me when I was a young girl. When she gave it to me, she

Said, "I'm giving this to you Because you are a very special

Daughter." And that's why I'm giving it to

You, because you're my daughter And you're very, very special.

And I love you. >> amanda: thank you, mother.

>> blake: alexis! Alexis, I want to discuss our

Daughter! Alexis...

Now, damn it, you listen to me. Alexis!

>> alexis: you listen to me, Blake.

Everything that I've ever loved, You've taken away from me -- my

Children one by one, this house. Well, take a deep breath, blake,

Because the children and this House and everything that

Belonged to me is gonna be mine Again.
