>> gerard: mr. Carrington's
Waiting to see you, mrs. Colby.

>> alexis: oh, I see.
Well, he'll just have to wait,

Gerard, because I have some
Additional notes for the ball

That I want you to take down.
Now, first of all, david jones

Is sending his personal
Assistant to do the flowers in

The house.
And I want you to tell

Mrs. Gunnerson that I'm very
Happy with her choice of

Desserts, but I've seen this
Wonderful one in this book that

I think...

>> blake: are you quite ready to
See me now?!

>> alexis: all right, gerard,
You can go.

All right, blake, what's this
All about?

>> blake: it's about you trying
To make a deal with

Michael culhane, trying to buy
Up his shares of stock in the

Crater.
>> alexis: I'm a businesswoman.

I have a right to operate as I
See fit.

>> blake: does that mean dealing
With a man who's destroying your

Daughter's life?!
>> alexis: if anything is, it's

Going to be you and your refusal
To let her go!

>> blake: be that as it may, I
Want to warn you about

Something.
If you buy one share in the

Crater, you will end up with one
Share of nothing, because I'll

Shut the project down if I have
To.

>> alexis: you wouldn't dare.
That's all you've got left!

You're bluffing!
>> blake: bluffing, am I?

You're going to find out that I
Never bluff -- never.

I hope you enjoy your ball,
Because it's the last one that

You're going to give.
You are on your way out of this

House.
And you, too.

>> ben: my brother making his
Usual noises?

Adding up to just that --
Noises.

Don't tell me you're giving it a
Second thought.

>> alexis: I don't know.
There was something in his

Voice.
>> ben: yeah, it's called

"Desperation."
>> alexis: I don't know.

I think your brother's up to
Something.

I only wish I knew what it was.
>> blake: and when I saw that

Smirk on alexis' face, it hit me
Suddenly.

I knew exactly how to use
Emily's letter.

>> krystle: use it? Well, how?
>> blake: darling, you know that

There's nothing that I wouldn't
Tell you, but I've got to work

This all out for myself first.
>> krystle: blake, I don't

Understand.
You told me you'd never do

Anything to hurt emily's memory.
>> blake: no one is going to be

Hurt by that letter except my
Brother, ben, and alexis.

But, darling, I want you to do
Something for me.

I want you to get us tickets to
Alexis' ball -- tickets for the

Entire family.
>> krystle: you can't be

Serious.
>> blake: oh, yes, I am.

I'm deadly serious.
>> michael: I wanted you to know

I am leaning that way, alexis.
Oh, yes, I will keep in touch.

Goodbye.
>> amanda: michael.

>> michael: hmm.
>> amanda: would you mind

Telling me what that was all
About?

>> michael: caught in the act.
>> amanda: what does that mean?

>> michael: your mother and I
Are planning to have a little

Fling.
All right, look, amanda, the way

Your father's been acting toward
Me, why shouldn't I sell my

Share of the crater to alexis
And get out of denver...And

Take you back to new orleans
With me?

>> amanda: no!
>> michael: why not?

>> amanda: you'd make things
Even worse with him!

>> michael: well, that's real
Tough!

>> amanda: michael --
>> michael: I went to your

Father and offered to work with
Him, and he just threw it right

Back in my face!
>> amanda: michael!

>> gary: ah, miss deveraux.

Gary tilden. Remember?
>> dominique: I certainly do.

I suppose you're wondering why I
Haven't returned any of your

Phone calls.
I've decided to have nothing to

Do with you.
>> gary: ah, well, then, I

Suppose I was right.
You are afraid to perform.

>> dominique: you're wrong.
As a matter of fact, I'm looking

Forward to it, but with my own
Company in my own way --

Certainly not with the people
You represent.

>> gary: miss deveraux, the
People I represent --

>> dominique: mr. Tilden, I have
Checked the people you represent

Very thoroughly.
They're a front.

I know where the money really

Comes from, and I don't sing
That kind of song, mr. Tilden.

>> gary: for your information,
There's only one studio here

That can handle all your needs,
And we're negotiating to buy it.

>> dominique: not anymore.
I have just bought it.

>> gary: you're making a big
Mistake, and you're going to

- make my people very angry.
- >> dominique:

>> nick: take your hands off
Her.

Now.
Now, move it.

>> gary:
>> dominique:

>> nick: what was that all
About?

>> dominique: oh, he wanted an
Autograph, and I...

Nick, I really would rather not
Discuss it.

I'm just happy that you are
Here.

>> nick: I'm here on business.
>> dominique: nick...

I realize that you're very angry
About the other night, but I

Told you I just don't fall into
Bed that easily.

>> nick:
Hey, don't worry about it.

I'll survive.
>> clay: uh!

No.
>> sammy jo: I...

>> clay: are you all right?

>> sammy jo: I'm fine.
It was the same way with

Danny -- just a touch of morning
Sickness.

>> clay: it's not morning,
Sammy jo.

It's 1:00 in the afternoon.
>> sammy jo: well, that makes me

Kind of unique, huh?
>> clay: that's my child you're

Carrying, too.
I want you to get on the phone,

Call the doctor, and find out if
There's something you can take.

>> sammy jo: I will, later.
She's probably still out to

Lunch.
>> clay: just try right now,

Okay?
>> sammy jo: okay.

>> clay: thank you.
>> dr. Craig: hello, sammy jo.

>> sammy jo: hello, dr. Craig.
I was feeling a little bit woozy

A couple of minutes ago, and my
Husband and I were wondering if

You could prescribe something.
>> dr. Craig: prescribe

Something?
>> sammy jo: mm-hmm.

>> dr. Craig: no, not until I
See the results of your beta

Quantitative and know for sure
If you are pregnant.

>> sammy jo: look, doctor, I --
>> dr. Craig: sammy jo, you came

To see me and said you were
Pregnant, based on a home

Pregnancy test.
Now, please, get yourself to the

Lab and take the proper test
This afternoon.

Then call me and we'll set up
An appointment.

>> sammy jo: all right, I will.
>> clay: you will what?

>> sammy jo: uh, she wants to
Check me over tomorrow.

It's nothing serious.
Coffee's getting cold.

>> clay: what did she say about
A prescription?

>> sammy jo: she just keeps
Going on about how she has too

Many patients looking for
Prescriptions and pills,

Whatever.
>> clay: she said no?

>> sammy jo: right.
>> clay: that's it?!

>> sammy jo: yes. Stop making
Such a big deal out of this.

I've got a good idea.
Why don't you eat your pie and

Stop worrying about me?
>> clay: where are you going?

>> sammy jo: I just remembered I
Have to pick up something in

Town.
See ya.

>> clay: see ya?

>> blake: come in, steven.
>> steven: I got your message,

Dad.
>> blake: I have to leave town

For a couple of hours.
While I'm gone, will you try and

Track down dan franklin for me?
>> steven: dan franklin?

>> blake: mm-hmm.
>> steven: wait a minute.

You mean the drunk who screwed
Everything up for you at the

Trial, who said that he was with
Ben the day that your mother

Died?
Dad, are you sure you know what

You're doing?
>> blake: yes, I know what I'm

Doing.
I need him.

I want you to go through every
Flophouse, every mission, every

Hospital down on skid row, but
Find the man for me.

I want something from him, and
I'm going to get it!

>> blake: miss van heusen?
>> cora: yes.

>> blake: I'm blake carrington.
>> cora:

In a whorehouse?
That's got to be the surprise of

The year, even for me.
Girls, we'll finish our talk

Later.
Sheila, would you bring

Mr. Carrington a drink, please?
>> blake: that won't be

Necessary.
Thank you.

>> cora: sit down, please.
You said on the phone you wanted

To talk to me about your
Brother.

>> blake: yes, and also about
Caress morrell.

>> cora: oh?
>> blake: you once told caress

That on the day that my mother
Died in that fire, that you knew

That my brother, ben, was having
An affair with a young woman --

A young woman who had married
Into a prominent family.

I think that you can identify
That woman.

>> cora: I told miss morrell,
And now I'll tell you, I know

Nothing about any of this.
>> blake: emily fallmont, wasn't

It?
I assume you know that she died

Recently.
>> cora: so?

>> blake: this is a letter that
She wrote to me just before she

Died.
Now, if I'm to do what she asks,

See that justice is done, I'm
Going to need more than just

That letter.
>> cora: somebody to verify that

She and ben were having an
Affair?

>> blake: yes.
>> cora: what would be in it

For me?
>> blake: you mean, money?

Forget it.
If you'd take money from me,

You'd take it from ben, too.
>> cora: I'm supposed to do this

Out of the decency of my heart?
I'm not so sure it's decent to

Tarnish the name of a dead
Woman.

>> blake: that will not happen.
I'll see to it that it doesn't.

Now, are you with me, or am I
Just wasting my time here?

>> krystle:

>> blake: hello, darling.
Any word from steven yet?

>> krystle: no, nothing.
>> blake:

>> krystle: where were you this
Afternoon?

>> blake: I drove down to
Colorado springs.

I wanted to get some answers
About some things.

I think I'll call steven at his
Apartment.

>> krystle: are you ever going
To tell me what this is all

About?
>> blake: I promise you that I

Will, just as soon as I get all
The pieces together.

Oh, miss cochran,
Blake carrington.

May I speak to my son, please?
Oh, I see.

Would you ask him to call me
When he comes in?

Thank you.
>> krystle: you'll tell me as

Soon as you have all the pieces
Together?

>> - blake: yes, that's right.
- >> krystle: blake I know

How to get secrets out of you.
Remember?

>> blake: yes, I do remember,
And I didn't tell younotto

Try.
>> krystle:

>> blake: I think you just won.
>> krystle:

>> alexis: make sure that you
Have the gown delivered to my

House no later than tomorrow at
Noon.

Thank you.
Krystle.

>> krystle: hello, alexis.
>> alexis:

What are you doing here?
>> krystle: I've come for a

Fitting on my gown for your
Party.

>> alexis: oh, yes, that's
Right.

Blake bought a few tickets.
Can he really afford it?

>> krystle: obviously, he can.
And we'll be there, which I'm

Sure will give you very little
Pleasure.

>> alexis: on the contrary.
What will give me enormous

Pleasure, though, is to show the
Two of you how to give a really

Good party and to show you how
I've redecorated your drab

Bedroom.
I'll have one of the servants

Take you around.
>> krystle: that won't be

Necessary.
Blake says that it won't be long

Now before...
>> alexis: before what?

>> krystle: uh...Never mind.
>> alexis: if you're talking

About blake's pathetic threats
To get the mansion back, please

Remind him thatihave the deed.
>> krystle: he knows that.

I don't have to remind him of
Anything.

>> alexis: I think you better
Tell your husband not to try

Anything to disrupt my party.
>> krystle: why, you sound

Worried, alexis, but I can
Understand that.

Knowing him, I'm sure he has
Something in mind.

>> alexis: what do you mean?
>> krystle: we'll just have to

Wait and see, won't we, alexis?

>> dex: whoo.
Who the hell's in here?

>> alexis: a long-lost friend.
>> dex: oh, that -- that little

Voice.
I know that voice.

It's the voice of the woman I
Love.

>> alexis: oh, you're so cute!
>> dex: hand me my jeans.

>> alexis: your wish is my
Command, lover.

>> dex: so, uh, tell me, alexis,

You were just in the
Neighborhood and decided to drop

By?
>> alexis: well, actually, I

Wanted to see your handsome
Face.

>> - dex: there's more. What?
- >> alexis:

I was thinking about that
Incredible evening that we spend

In your trailer, and I wanted to
Relive sentimental memories.

>> dex: well, I hate to spoil
Your memories, alexis, but that

Night didn't take place here at
The crater.

It took place upstate at the
Drilling site.

>> alexis: don't quibble, lover.
As gertrude stein would say, "A

Trailer is a trailer, but you
Are you are you."

Come here, hmm?

Hmm.

What's the matter?
>> dex: what's the matter?

>> alexis: yes.
>> dex: I know you.

I know your kisses.
You either give everything

You've got or you use them, and
Right now, alexis, you're using

Them.
>> alexis: oh, that's absurd.

>> dex: what do you want?
I mean, what are you really

After here?
>> alexis:

It's blake.
>> dex:

What about him?
>> alexis: he's got something up

His sleeve, and I've got to find
Out what it is.

First of all, he bought a whole
Block of tickets for the ball,

And then he comes to me and
Tells me that it would be the

Last party that I ever give at
The mansion.

Then, I bump into krystle, and
She tells me, in that

Sanctimonious way of hers, that
I'm in for a big surprise.

>> dex: what has this got to do
With me?

>> alexis: well, I thought you
Could maybe help me.

I thought you might find out
What's going on.

After all, you are one of the
Few people in the world that

Blake really trusts.
>> dex: and if I am, do you

Think that I would tell you
What I knew?

No way, alexis.

So if your little sentimental
Journey is over with, do you

Mind if I get back to work?
>> alexis: all right.

Another time, another trailer.
By the way, you are going to

Come to the ball, aren't you?
>> dex: well, I hadn't planned

On it, alexis, but now I
Wouldn't miss it, just in case

He does have something in mind.
>> alexis: well, it's your

$5,000.
>> dex: well, might be worth it.

>> alexis: hmm.
>> michael: no, thank you.

I'm only here for amanda's sake.

I just want you to know that.
Whatever I do, mr. Carrington,

In your book, seems to be wrong.
You've made that perfectly

Clear.
>> blake: well, I just talked to

Amanda.
She wants me to come to terms

With you, because if I don't,
I'd be driving you right into

Alexis' camp.
>> michael: and I might sell out

To alexis.
That's for me to decide.

>> blake: I'm not finished with
You yet, culhane.

How much do you want for your
Interest in the crater?

I'll pay you double what alexis
Will.

>> michael: no deal.
>> blake: triple.

>> michael: I said, no deal.
You're not going to get me out

Of denver or your life that
Easily, boss.

I hate you, and I love your
Daughter.

It all comes out even.
>> blake: wait a minute.

All right.
If you won't get out on your

Own, I'll starve you out.
You can sit on your $50 million

Until hell freezes over.
>> blake: so I want all the

Operations on the crater stopped
Until I give the go-ahead.

>> nick: and is that going
To be?

>> blake: when I say so.
>> nick: when you say so?!

Well, that's no answer!
>> dex: blake, we've made

Commitments.
I've already moved a lot of

Equipment up here.
>> blake: I know that, dex,

But I have got to stop culhane.
He's not only become my partner

In this venture.
He's already talking to alexis

About her buying his share.
I will not tolerate that -- not

From either of them!
>> nick: the big man won't

Tolerate it.
What about my men -- the crew

I put together?!
How are they and their families

Going to tolerate their being
Thrown out of a job?!

>> blake: I'll get them jobs --
Hundreds of them.

>> nick: those are big words!
You want to tell me where,

Specifically?!
>> blake: no, I can't do that --

Not right now.
>> dex: blake, you're going back

On your word.
That's not like you.

Now, what's happening?
>> blake:

I'll explain it to you just as
Soon as I can.

>> nick: you're double-dealing
Us, blake.

>> blake: damn it, I am not
Double-dealing you!

I'm fighting for my life!
>> sammy jo: hello, dr. Craig.

>> dr. Craig: oh, I think we'll

Be more comfortable over here,
Sammy jo.

>> sammy jo: okay.
>> dr. Craig: I'm glad you took

The test.
>> sammy jo: is my baby

All right?
>> dr. Craig: the very first

Time you came in, I could tell
How excited you were to be

Having a baby.
>> sammy jo: yes, I am -- very

Excited.
>> dr. Craig: sammy jo,

Sometimes when a woman wants her
Husband's child desperately, the

Brain sends messages to other
Parts of her body, and the body

Responds by mimicking pregnancy
Symptoms.

>> sammy jo: I don't understand.
What's that got to do with me?

>> dr. Craig: dear, there's no
Easy way for me to say this.

You are not pregnant.
>> sammy jo: what?!

>> dr. Craig: it's a false
Pregnancy, sammy jo.

>> sammy jo: that's crazy!
It's the wildest thing I've ever

Heard!
>> dr. Craig: the lab test

Showed no evidence of true
Pregnancy.

>> sammy jo: then the test is
Wrong!

My body -- everything about
Me -- is the same as when I was

Carrying danny!
I was pregnant then, and I'm

Pregnant now!
>> dr. Craig: sammy jo, it

Doesn't mean that you can't have
A child.

It simply means --
>> sammy jo: what it means is

That I'm going to see another
Doctor, not one that's going to

Try and mix up my life!
>> dr. Craig: that's your

Privilege, of course, but the
Fact remains --

>> sammy jo: stop using that
Word -- the "Fact"!

I know what the fact is!
I'm carrying my husband's baby!

It's inside me right now.
I feel it! I know it!

I don't care what you say.
>> clay: well?

Did you see the good doctor?
>> sammy jo: yes.

>> clay: well, yes?
What did she say?

>> sammy jo: a lot.
>> clay: she getspaida lot.

You're healthy?
>> sammy jo: yes, I'm fine.

>> clay: great, and there's no
Problem with the baby.

Ah, which reminds me.
While you were gone --

Mm-hmm --
I decided to spoil our child

Six months before it's born.
His or her first gift from the

Old man.
What do you think?

>> sammy jo: it's adorable.
>> clay: just like you.

>> sammy jo: clay...
>> clay: yes?

Yes, mrs. Fallmont?
>> sammy jo: tell me the truth.

Would you have married me if
There were no baby?

>> clay:
What's the difference? Thereis.

>> sammy jo: I'd like to know.
>> clay: yes.

I think we probably would have
Gotten married -- maybe not so

Fast.
But, hey, I don't want to talk

About this anymore, and I don't
Want my wife getting neurotic on

Me, okay?
I want you to take care of

Yourself, and I want you to take
Care of our baby, because that

Baby is very important to me.
He brought us together.

Okay?
>> ben: adam, I want you to sign

These.
>> dana: adam's not here,

Mr. Carrington.
>> ben: in that case, I'd

Likeyouto handle this.
>> dana: whatever it is, the

Answer's no.
I don't take orders from you

Anymore.
I only take orders from adam.

>> ben: I understand that's not
All you're taking from him.

Oh, I'm quite aware of his suite
At the carlton, of your

Rendezvous, of the very long --
Very long -- lunches.

>> dana:
>> ben: not so fast.

>> dana: let go of me!
>> ben: you had me fooled.

When you refused to tell me what
Was in blake's personal files, I

Thought you were operating with
Integrity, but you were just

Looking for a better customer,
Weren't you?

>> adam: dana, would you leave
Us alone, please?

Don't ever come into this office

Again unless you're invited.
And as far as dana's concerned,

I'm in love with her.
If you ever touch her again...

You'll be very, very sorry.
Is that clear?

>> ben: put your signature on
These, would you?

Please.

>> dan: look, carrington...
I told your son...

You people can't touch me.
Now, you may be sore at me for

What happened at the trial, but
There's nothing you can do about

It now.
>> blake: mr. Franklin, my son

Also told me that you'd stopped
Drinking.

You were back living with your
Wife.

Is that right?
>> dan: that's right, and that's

The way I'm going to stay --
With my wife and sober.

>> blake: maybe. Maybe not.
>> dan: what are you talking

About?
>> blake: why did you stop

Drinking?
>> dan: because I finally hit

Bottom.
>> blake: you wanted to be back

With your wife again.
You wanted to live like a human

Being again.
Except there's one problem you

Haven't licked --
Your conscience.

You lied about me in court.
Now your conscience won't let

You alone.
It keeps -- keeps nagging at

You, doesn't it?
>> dan: what are you, god or

Something?
How did you know?

>> blake: because I think that,
Deep down, you're a decent man.

I want to give you another
Chance -- maybe your last chance

To make peace with yourself.
>> dan: this is my house,

Carrington, and you weren't
Invited here, so get out.

I said, get out!

>> gerard: that's fine,
But let mrs. Colby check it.

>> alexis:
Yes, that's very good, gerard.

Ben, have you seen adam?
>> ben: no, I haven't.

>> alexis: well, I wonder where
He is.

And he's my host.
He's supposed to be here and

Help me greet the guests.
>> ben: well, I'm sorry, alexis,

But I'm not my nephew's keeper.
The last time I saw him was at

The office with dana waring.
She seems to keep him very busy.

>> alexis: hmm.
Are you insinuating that they're

Having an affair?
Is that what you're trying to

Tell me?
>> ben: what office girl

Wouldn't want to hook one of
The carrington-colby heirs?

>> adam: ooh.
>> dana:

>> adam: we
Have a party in our future.

We have to go
To it.

>> dana: let's stay here a few
More minutes.

As a matter of fact, let's stay
Here forever.

>> adam: hmm. The room-service
Bill would blow our minds.

>> dana:
We could live on bread and

Water.
>> adam: with a cheeseburger

Once a month.
>> dana: mm-hmm.

Mmm.
Do you remember tessie's shack

In billings?
>> adam: uh-huh.

Yes, I do.

Best cheeseburgers in montana.
>> dana: mm-hmm.

I used to see you there
Sometimes after school.

The place would be jammed with
Kids.

I'd be sitting alone at one end
Of the diner.

Then, you'd come in alone, order
Something, always at the other

End.
>> adam: why didn't you ever

Come over to me?
>> dana: I loved you so much.

I used to pretend you loved me.
I was afraid...

That even a hello from me would
Ruin my fantasy.

>> adam: I wish you had come
Over.

I must have been the loneliest
Kid in billings.

I never believed I could belong
Anywhere or with anyone.

And all the time, I had you,
Didn't I?

>> dana: mm-hmm.
>> adam:

I love you, dana.
You're the first woman in my

Life I don't have to put up a
Front for.

I don't have to smile if I feel
Low.

I can finally be myself.
>> dana: except for tonight at

The ball with the cream of
Denver society.

>> adam: oh, yeah, that's a
Command performance.

>> dana: do we have to go?
>> adam: mm-hmm.

>> dana:
>> adam: mother is expecting me.

Besides, I want to show her and
Everybody else how lovely you

Are.
And you are.

>> alexis: good evening, ladies

And gentlemen.
I want to thank all of you for

Coming tonight and helping me
Enrich denver's future

By supporting
The alexis colby foundation.

I know there's a lot more that I
Could say, but this is a

Celebration, and I want you all
To enjoy yourselves.

>> general: I can tell,
Mrs. Colby, that it's going to

Be a superlative party.
>> alexis: thank you, general.

Thank you both for coming.
>> amanda: hello, mother.

>> alexis: hello, darling.
Michael, I need to have a word

With you.
>> amanda: can't it wait?

>> alexis: no, darling.
It's important.

I hope that we can see each
Other a little bit later.

Excuse me.
>> amanda: what do you think she

Wants?
>> michael: I think that's

Between your mother and me.

>> ben: oh, it's a pity, alexis.
Adam still isn't here.

You've apparently been stood up
By your co-host.

>> alexis:
I wouldn't worry about it, ben.

Adam's my son. He'll be here.
Cheers.

>> krystle: darling, would you
Fasten this for me?

>> blake: mm-hmm.
>> krystle: it's still going to

Work for you.
You know that, don't you?

>> blake: I don't know how.
Franklin turned me down.

I tried to get through to him,
But he wouldn't understand.

He wouldn't even talk to me.

>> krystle: hello?
Yes, he is. Just a minute.

It's the desk.
>> blake: yes?

All right. I'll be right down.
>> krystle: who was it?

>> blake: dan franklin.
He's down in the lobby.

He wants to talk to me.

>> alexis: why don't you try the

Salmon?
I had it flown in from scotland.

>> dex: no, thanks.
>> alexis: I'm really glad you

Could come to the party, dex.
>> dex: well, you made it

Simple, alexis.
>> alexis: what do you mean?

>> dex: I had no work to delay
Me.

The crater -- it was shut down
Early this afternoon.

>> alexis: he really closed it
Down?

>> dex: mm-hmm. Everything was
Moving along fine until you

Started talking a deal with
Culhane.

You knew how blake felt about
Him.

>> alexis: I really have better
Things to do with my time than

Worry about how blake feels.
>> dex: then worry about the men

You've just put out of jobs.
That should put you in a real

Party mood, alexis.
Excuse me.

>> ben: good evening, dexter.
>> dex: you do have a way of

Picking winners, don't you?
>> alexis: yes, well, I picked

You, didn't I, lover?
>> dex:

>> alexis: michael, you have
Been dragging your heels long

Enough.
>> michael: well, I never said I

Was kelly or astaire.
>> alexis:

You know what I'm talking about?
Do I get to buy you out of the

Crater or not?
>> michael: hmm, why would you

Want to now, with it shut down?
>> alexis: well, let's just say

That I like to see blake with
Blood in his eye and egg on his

Face.
Besides, I'm in a better

Financial position than you.
>> michael: that's blunt enough.

>> alexis: yes or no?
>> michael: well, why don't we

Just keep our options open for
Now and keep on enjoying

Ourselves, hmm?
>> alexis: hmm.

You know what I like about you,
Michael?

>> michael: hmm?
>> alexis: your candor, amongst

Other things.

>> clay:
Hey, let's go get some food.

>> sammy jo: I'm not really
Hungry.

>> clay: I am.
I'll be right back.

Bye.
Well, hello, steven.

>> randy: hi, steven.
>> steven: hi.

>> randy: well, don't you
Remember?

We met at chris deegan's party.
You were in a big conversation

With bart fallmont.
>> steven: no, no, sorry, I

Don't remember.
>> randy: well, there's no time

Like the present to start
Getting acquainted.

Uh, look, there's got to be a --
There's got to be a quieter spot

In this house where we could
Talk.

I mean, uh, I'm not bart, but
I'm not too bad a guy.

>> steven: excuse me, but I
Think you better stop before you

Start.
>> randy: come on, you're not

Going to play straight with me.
>> steven: I'm not playing!

Period.
>> sammy jo: I saw what

Happened, steven.
I know how you must feel.

>> steven: you have no idea how
I feel.

What the hell does he think he's
Doing, coming on to me like

That?!
This is my family's home!

>> sammy jo: why don't we go
Find clay and get something

To eat?
>> steven: no, I got to get out

Of here and get some fresh air.
[ orchestra plays slow-tempo

Music ]
>> dominique: I have something

To give?
>> dex: that's right.

>> dominique:
>> dex: hello, jack.

>> dominique: how do you do?
>> dex: tell me something,

Alexis.
Did you enjoy coming on to

Culhane during your little
Minuet?

>> alexis: darling, I don't come
On to men.

They come on to me.
>> dex: I didn't finish.

Or were you just giving your
Blessings to his relationship

With amanda?
>> alexis: well, I thought you'd

Finished being concerned about
Amanda a long time ago.

>> dex: she's still a friend,
And she's still your daughter.

I hope we both want what's best
For her.

Culhane is not.
>> alexis: really? Well, when I

Need your advice about how to
Handle amanda, I'll ask for it.

>> gerard: oh, mrs. Colby,
Miss amanda would like to see

You.
She's in the solarium.

>> alexis: thank you, gerard.
>> adam: mother.

I'm sorry we're so late.
>> alexis: well, you were

Obviously unavoidably detained.
This must be miss...Waring from

The office.
>> dana: yes, mrs. Colby, it's

So nice to meet you.
>> alexis: well, it's nice to

Meet you, too, dear.
Darling, bethany anderson has

Just flown in from tennessee.
She's dying to see you.

I'm sure miss waring won't mind.
Excuse me.

>> dana: I told you she wouldn't
Like me.

>> adam: let's have some
Champagne.

>> alexis: amanda?

Darling, why did you want to see

Me in here?
>> amanda: to tell you to stay

Away from michael.
>> alexis: what?

>> amanda: and stop putting him
In the middle between yourself

And blake!
>> alexis: amanda, you know what

I think you ought to do?
You ought to make a clean break

With your father.
His hatred for michael is

Dangerous.
>> amanda: mother, please.

Stay out of my life!
>> alexis: amanda, I'm only

Trying to give you some good
Advice.

>> amanda: I won't break with my
Father, and I won't lose michael

To you.

>> gerard: mr. Carrington,

Mrs. Carrington, it's so good to
See you.

>> krystle: thank you, gerard.
>> blake: gerard, would you be

Good enough to find mrs. Colby
For me, and my brother, too?

>> gerard: yes, sir.
>> blake: thank you.

>> nick: mrs. Carrington, blake.
I got about a dozen calls from

My crew after the news broke.
They don't have very nice things

To say about you.
>> blake: nick, I told you that

Those men would be back at work
Very, very soon -- maybe in a

Couple of days.
>> nick: look, we've all heard

That tune before, and nobody
Dances to it, especially not me.

Excuse me.
>> dominique: okay, I'll talk to

You later.
>> sammy jo: bye-bye.

>> nick: oh, miss deveraux has
Something on her mind.

I can see it in those beautiful,
Brown eyes.

>> dominique: I most certainly
Do have something on my mind!

You.
That was quite a greeting you

Gave blake.
>> nick: I had every right to be

Upset after what he did to my
Men at the crater today.

>> dominique: I don't think you
Have the right to speak to blake

In that tone of voice.
>> nick: nobody tells me what to

Say or how to act.
Remember that.

And if you're wondering what I'm
Doing at an alexis colby party,

Even a wildcatter can afford to
Contribute to charity.

>> alexis: well, well, well.
Mr. And mrs. Carrington, I'm so

Glad you could honor us with
Your presence.

>> blake: I wouldn't have missed
It for the world.

>> krystle: yes, I have a
Feeling it's a night to

Remember.
>> alexis: oh, yes, it is.

I planned it that way.
>> krystle: well, you know the

Old saying -- "The best-laid
Plans..."

>> blake: alexis, I want to talk
To you.

- you too, ben.
- >> alexis: now?

>> blake: yes. I want to talk to
You both right now in the

Library.
Or if you like, we can do it

Right here in front of all your
Guests.

It's your choice.
>> blake: close those doors.

>> alexis: all right, blake,
What do you want?

>> blake: I want you two to
Start packing and to move out of

This house.
>> ben: what are you talking

About?
>> blake: you're going to give

Me back denver carrington and my
South china sea oil leases.

>> alexis: you must be joking.
>> blake: and as for you, I want

You to get ready to pay back to
Dominique and me the money that

You won from us in court with
Your lying testimony.

And that's right now, with no
Delay!

>> ben: let's leave this maniac
Alone with his delusions.

>> blake: just a minute!
I have two affidavits here --

One from dan franklin.
>> ben: franklin?

The drunk who was supposed to
Testify for you at the trial?

>> blake: he's a recovering
Alcoholic now.

He swears that, on the day that
Mama died in that fire, that he

Was with me.
>> alexis: who's the other one

From?
>> blake: it's signed by

Cora van heusen.
You remember that name, don't

You, ben?
>> ben: what does it say?

>> blake: it says that you and
Emily fallmont were alone

Together in a motel room at the
Time of that fire.

She's prepared to testify for me
In court, as is dan franklin.

>> ben: you'll need more than
That.

>> blake: I've got more than
That.

I have a letter from
Emily fallmont.

Here, read it, and don't bother
To tear up that copy.

It's just a copy.
Go on, read it aloud.

>> alexis: no!
>> blake: read it!

>> alexis: I won't!
>> blake: well, then, I'll read

It for you!

"Dear blake, you must use this
Letter to clear yourself.

By the time you read it, I will
Have left denver for good.

Blake, ben and alexis lied in
Court.

I was the woman with
Ben carrington the day your

Mother died.
Buck already knows the truth,

And our marriage is over, so
There's no way that you can hurt

Me except by not allowing me to
Set matters straight."

And it's signed by her.
>> ben: you'd never make that

Public.
You'd never destroy emily's

Reputation.
>> blake: you damn well better

Give me what I'm asking for, or
I will use this.

>> ben: you're bluffing, blake.
>> blake: was I bluffing when I

Threatened to shut down
Operations on the crater?

Was I bluffing when I found you
Cheating in our marriage and

Threatened to throw you out of
The house?

>> alexis: blake! Wait!
>> ben: alexis.

>> alexis: ben, I am not going
To go to jail again!

>> blake: then I suggest you
Give back the things that I've

Asked for!
Your signature, returning the

House and denver carrington
To me.

>> alexis: if I sign these, what
Guarantee do I have that you

Won't use emily's letter against
Us?

>> blake: you have my word,
Which is worth more than

Anything you've got.
And you'll get the original of

This when I have the
South china sea oil leases

Returned to me.

>> alexis: you don't give an
Inch, do you?

>> blake: oh, yes. Yes, I give.
I'll give you one more night in

This house, which is more than
You gave me and my family.

Oh, you can sleep in the master
Bedroom tonight.

I'm having it disinfected
Tomorrow.
