Miss morrell, and if we can Establish that she's being held

Illegally, yes, quite possibly, We'd be able to help her,

Mrs. Carrington. >> krystle: what do you mean,

"Quite possibly"? >> those are two very large

"Ifs," especially as we have no Proof.

You do realize that this letter Sent to your husband could have

Been written by anyone anywhere And mailed from caracas?

It's done all the time. Would you care for some tea?

>> krystle: yes, thank you. When we got her letter, I had a

Handwriting expert compare it With an inscription on a

Manuscript she gave us. It was the same handwriting.

Here. >> yes, this would be useful, no

Doubt about it. Sugar?

>> krystle: uh, no, thank you. Then you will investigate?

>> well, yes, of course. Milk?

>> krystle: no, thank you. We'll be staying --

>> mrs. Carrington, this may Take quite a while.

Contact you. >> krystle: but you will do

Something about this right away? Obviously, she's in danger.

>> with all due respect, not Obviously, mrs. Carrington,

Possibly. Now, as I said, we will look

Tonight. Will you?

>> alexis: Oh, dex, I can't.

I need my freedom now. >> dex: how does ben fit into

All of this? >> alexis: nowhere.

He doesn't mean anything to me. >> dex: I'm not talking about

Sharing your bed with him, Alexis.

I'm talking about blake and the Both of you and your vendetta

Against him. >> alexis: dex, believe it or

Not, I have better things on my Mind right now than

Blake carrington. I want to run a newspaper that I

Can really be proud of. I want to endow museums, start a

New opera company, become a Civic leader.

>> dex: leader? Oh, that's the operative word,

Right? Why don't you say what you mean,

Alexis? Power!

You want more power than any man Or woman in the city!

>> alexis: so what if I do? What's wrong with that?

>> dex: it's ruining you. >> alexis: it is not ruining me,

Damn it. It is nurturing me.

It is filling a need. Do you know, dex, sometimes I

Wake up in the night, and I Think, "Alexis, you've done it.

You left denver a banished Woman.

And you've come back and you are A winner, and you're going to

Continue to be a winner." >> dex: and that's what life

Means to you? >> alexis: that's what life

Means to me right now -- my Children and my work.

Talked about wyoming. I want you to come and see my

Place. We can fly up tomorrow or the

Next day. Will you?

>> alexis: oh, dex. Yes. Yes, darling, I will.

I will. >> steven: well, I'm sorry that

The trip didn't pan out. >> blake: it still may.

>> steven: but, dad, if they Deny that she's even there,

That's pretty much it, isn't it? >> krystle: we're hoping the

British embassy comes through. >> blake: by the way, why didn't

Michael come down here with the Car?

>> steven: oh, I told him that I'd pick you up.

Dad, I want to talk to you about Him.

>> blake: why? Is something the matter?

>> steven: well, I've been Checking up on him, and I don't

Like what I've been finding. About a year after he left

Denver, he was picked up by the Police in louisiana in

Connection with a phony oil-well Investment scheme.

>> blake: that sounds like him. >> krystle: was he charged?

>> ben: no, he managed to get Off without even being brought

To trial. >> blake: stay on it, steven.

I want to know everything there Is about michael culhane.

>> tilden: well, well. Chauffeur's night off?

>> michael: what do you want, Tilden?

>> tilden: actually, I didn't Come here to talk to you,

Michael. I have other dealings here.

But now that we're together, I'm Curious.

>> michael: about? >> tilden: well, my contact at

The bank told me that you Transferred $5 million here from

New orleans. You plan to use that money

Against blake carrington Somehow, but I think you're

Stalling a little too long. Carrington might get on to you.

>> michael: well, that's my Business.

>> tilden: how about letting me Make it my business, too?

I can help you, michael, like I Used to.

>> michael: no, those days are Over with.

>> tilden: well, well. That shouldn't be too much of a

Hardship for you to get the girl Into bed and dump her.

Get your revenge on her daddy. Just watch out your plan doesn't

Boomerang on you, my friend. >> michael: look, tilden, butt

Out. Do you always take a

Late-evening stroll? >> amanda: I enjoy it.

And it's a way to unwind. >> michael: it's your father,

Right? You've been worried about him,

Everything he's going through? I can tell you this, amanda.

He really appreciates all the Help you've been giving him.

>> amanda: and how do you know That?

>> michael: one, fathers love Daughters.

Two, I drive. He talks on the car phone, and

He always manages to squeeze in Your name.

Real proud. I like him for that.

I like him for a lot of things. >> amanda: that's pretty

Generous of you. I mean, he doesn't exactly give

You an easy time. >> michael: well, I can

Understand the way he still Feels about me.

But things will get better. Wait and see.

You are beautiful. And very sexy.

>> amanda: no. Michael... >> michael: amanda, I want to be

With you tonight. Come to my room.

>> amanda: I can't. >> michael: why?

Is it because I work for your Family?

>> amanda: no, of course not. >> michael: I turn you off, is

That it? >> amanda: you know you don't.

>> michael: well, then, what? >> amanda: I just don't like to

Rush into things. >> michael: even if it's what

You want, amanda, as much as I Do?

We both know that's true. >> blake: amanda.

>> michael: mr. Carrington. Don't blame her.

It was my fault. >> blake: no, it isn't.

It's my fault -- my fault for Hiring you.

I warned you once. Now you're fired.

Pack your things and get out of Here.

>> amanda: daddy. >> michael: I'm sorry.

>> amanda: are you really going To fire him?

>> blake: I already have. >> amanda: why? For kissing me?

Why is that so wrong? >> blake: what's wrong is that I

Decided to give him another Chance.

I don't like him, amanda. The more I see him, the more I

Hear about him, the less I like Him.

>> amanda: all right. If that's the way you feel,

That's fine, but it doesn't make You right because you're not

Always right!

>> krystle: give her a minute. Then I'll talk to her.

>> amanda: he'll always resent Michael for what happened with

Fallon, but that was a long time Ago.

>> krystle: and you feel like Your father's interfering in

Your life now. >> amanda: yes, I do.

>> krystle: amanda, he loves You.

He's only trying to help you. >> amanda: I don't want his

Help. >> krystle: well, he was right

About dex and you, remember? >> amanda: that was different.

>> krystle: he's just trying to Protect you.

>> amanda: krystle, I can take Care of myself.

I don't need protection. I'm sorry, but I have to handle

My own life now.

>> blake: what do you want here? >> alexis:

Look, I went after you about the Fire because I really thought

That you were guilty, but I was Wrong.

So, I was going through the House, and this was about to be

Thrown out, and I thought that You should have it.

>> blake: thank you very much. What really brings you here,

Alexis? >> alexis: you're always so

Suspicious, blake. >> blake: with good reason.

>> alexis: why do you think I'm Driven by hatred for you when

I'm not? >> blake: so you brought me this

To prove that you're not. >> alexis: take it as you wish.

>> blake: how dare you. How dare you bring the picture

Of my mother after the way you Lied about her in that courtroom

About who killed her. >> alexis: I wanted ben to have

His fair share of your father's Will.

>> blake: so, ben was hungry for My money, you were hungry for my

- blood. - >> alexis:

You can't accept a decent Gesture, can you?

Because, in spite of your Facade, you don't know the

Meaning of the word "Decency." >> blake: look, I'm busy.

Get out of here. >> alexis: you're a hateful man,

Blake. You always were, and you always

Will be. >> blake: I said get out!

>> alexis: mr. Wales, I have had Enough of your lame excuses.

You are supposed to be an Investigative reporter, and I

Want that information about Blake carrington's new venture

I'm going up to wyoming alone. >> alexis: dex!

>> blake: yes.

Yes, yes, I see. Right. Goodbye.

The british embassy wants to Help, but their hands are tied.

If we're gonna get caress out of That jail, we're gonna have to

Do it ourselves. >> steven: that's a big if, dad.

You're asking for a miracle. >> blake: a miracle is just what

She needs. She's counting on me for it,

Too. Steven, she's an innocent

Victim. I can't let ben do that --

Wait a minute. Dexter.

He's the one. >> steven: dad, wait a minute.

He may have done this sort of Thing before, but this --

>> blake: he'll help us. He wants to settle scores with

Ben as much as I do. I tried to get ahold of him this

I'm a state-of-the-art tough Guy, we're wildcatters, so I am

When I have to be. >> dominique: and as for the

Flip side? I presume there is a flip side.

>> nick: I'm a pushover for Good causes and people.

>> dominique: uh-huh. >> nick: I send my grandmother a

Check once a month, who lives in Carson city.

She promptly gives it to her Church and that makes her happy,

Which is what life's all about, Right?

Personality-wise, my likability Quotient is a solid 10.

>> dominique: really? What about your modesty

Quotient? >> nick: give me a 6 on that.

>> dominique: a 6. You do overestimate yourself,

Mr. Kimball. I think I'd give you a zero.

Because, you see, in spite of The check once a week to

Carson city, I find you to be One of the most conceited,

Self-centered, overconfident Human beings I have ever met.

Believe me, in my profession, I Have worked with the best of the

Worst. But, mr. Kimball, I do thank you

For dropping by. >> alexis:

What are you doing here? >> ben: you didn't really expect

To get rid of me that easily, Did you?

>> alexis: as far as I'm Concerned, ben, I have.

>> ben: well, in that case, I Trust you are ready to go to

Jail. Or have you forgotten, alexis,

That you and I are guilty of Criminal conspiracy and perjury?

If we were to be convicted, we'd Probably get 10 years.

Well, I'm prepared to be a good Sport and go quietly, but I'll

Take you with me. >> alexis: you're bluffing.

>> ben: am I? I love you, alexis, and you know

It. But I swear that I will destroy

You before anyone else has you. It'll make quite a headline in

Your very own newspaper -- "The Great woman of denver with all

Her charities and philanthropic Foundations and civic pride

Locked up and left to rot behind Bars."

>> alexis: you wouldn't dare. >> ben: you've had a taste of it

Already, haven't you, when you Were accused of murder?

Nothing terrifies you more than The thought of being caged

Again, does it? Does it, alexis?

Well, you still say I'm Bluffing?

>> michael: hi. >> amanda: michael.

I was afraid I'd never see you Again.

I tried to reach you, but there Was no answer.

>> michael: I moved. >> amanda: well, you could've

Left a message. >> michael: I thought that if I

Stayed out of your life, you Wouldn't have any more problems

With your father. But I decided I couldn't stay

Out of it that easily. >> amanda: well, I'm glad you

Changed your mind. >> michael: are you?

>> amanda: my father was very Unfair.

I felt sick about it. Did you find another job?

>> michael: don't worry about That.

The important thing is I've got Enough money to take us to

Lunch. How about it?

>> amanda: I wish I could. I already have a lunch date.

>> michael: ohh. Well, if it's a guy, he's a very

Lucky guy. Meanwhile, I'll take a rain

Check, okay? >> fallon: oh, excuse me.

>> dex: look, alexis, I get back To the trailer, there's a pile

Of orders from ben. Now, I thought you fired him.

>> alexis: I changed my mind, Dex.
