Chance to talk to you. >> adam: you need a drink.

Steven's your brother. You deliberately tried to

Humiliate him in front of the Entire board of directors.

It's inexcusable! >> adam: I didn't humiliate

Steven. He wasn't there.

Fallon, let me explain something To you.

Today was supposed to be the Most important board of

Directors meeting of the year. Now, the plan was to go over the

Realignment of the holdings and Get a handle on the mess that

Mother left us, but -- oh, lo And behold, our illustrious

Chief operating officer, our Lovely brother, steven, wouldn't

Show up! He didn't even call!

What was I supposed to do? >> fallon: embarrass him, of

Course -- it was the first thing That came to your mind.

>> adam: steven embarrassed Himself.

>> fallon: I'm sure steven has a Very good reason.

>> adam: you file it under Incompetence.

>> fallon: I can't believe you. How can you talk about him like

That? >> adam: go ahead and bark.

I was just trying to save face. You think I enjoy covering for

Him? >> fallon: you certainly enjoyed

Embarrassing him. The look on your face was pure

Glee. >> adam: that was pure joy

Because you and jeff finally Walked through the door!

What actually held you up? >> fallon: we've had some

Problems. >> adam: oh, oh, oh.

I lose my wife, I lose my son. I still manage to show up on

Time! I think I'm the only member of

This family who cares to keep Denver carrington on top!

>> fallon: that's not true! >> adam: oh, yes, it is!

>> fallon: shut up and listen to Me for once.

Something's happened to krystle. >> adam: what's happened to

Krystle? >> fallon: I don't know.

I don't know, but it's not good. >> blake: yes.

Yes, she looks fine, but I Haven't been able to talk to

Her. She's still asleep.

No, the only thing I can be sure Of is that she took a plane here

Yesterday afternoon. >> fallon: I spoke to jeff after

The board meeting. He didn't want to tell you over

The phone, especially while Krystle was still missing, but

They found more than just Krystle's scarf at the lake.

They found her diary and...A Body.

>> blake: a body? >> fallon: some young guy.

Jeff thinks he was murdered. He said it was muddy out there,

Too. You remember how krystle's car

Looked? >> blake: yes.

>> fallon: what if the guy who Stole the car killed that man?

Krystle could have seen it and Run away.

>> blake: well, we'll Piece that together when she

Wakes up. By the way, how'd the board

Meeting go? >> fallon: oh, well enough.

Only steven never showed up. >> blake: he didn't? Why not?

>> fallon: I don't know. But you should've heard the way

Adam carried on about him. I mean, he practically made it

Sound like steven had run off With the cookie jar.

>> blake: uh-huh. I'm sure that he had a good

Reason for not being there. I'll tell you, I wish that you

Three would make an effort to Get along better together.

If not for my sake, at least for The company.

>> fallon: well, we do try. It just doesn't always work out.

You sound exhausted. You should get some sleep.

Down to washington. But, uh, blake carrington's

Involved in that kind of thing, Isn't he -- that whole

Arms-smuggling thing? >> alexis: no, no, no.

He has one tanker down there. I have nine.

And the natumbe government have Got their hot little hands all

Over them. >> hamilton: I, uh, know a few

People in that part of the World.

We have a saying at the bank. "They used to eat the

Missionaries down there. Now they just swallow their

Possessions." >> alexis: well, that is exactly

What's going to happen to my Ships unless somebody makes them

See reason. Oh, couldn't you please

I knew that alexis had lost her Election, but I had no idea she

Was in financial trouble, too. >> dex: what makes you say that?

>> sable: oh, something in the Way she drools.

She'll find a way to land on her Feet.

>> sable: or her back. >> virginia:

I'm sorry that I was so short With you out at the airport

Today. I've been going through a very

Difficult time. >> virginia: I understand.

>> blake: in that light, sewing, You remind me so much of

Krystle. She's still sleeping.

>> virginia: good. I just thought I'd fix her

Made my sister's dress for The senior prom, she was up all

Night to make sure every stitch, Everything was perfect.

>> blake: >> virginia: it was beautiful.

Would you like some more tea? >> blake: no, thank you.

>> virginia: ...Until I went and Spilled salad dressing all down

The front of it. Sally and I had to go out and

Buy another dress. Krystle -- she wasn't too happy

With me for a few days. >> blake: I imagine not.

>> virginia:

Well, it's better. >> blake: you know, I was raised

To think that the most important Thing in life for me was to

Battle my way to the top of Whatever mountain I chose and do

My damndest to stay there... Until I met krystle.

A couple of years ago, on our Anniversary, we went to

Cape cod, and there was this Very stormy night.

We walked down to the beach, and There was a lighthouse, and it

Stood out, and the light Flashing.

The sea was awful -- huge white Caps and -- and waves pounding

On the beach. And way off in the distance at

The horizon, just barely make it Out, was a large freighter.

And I remember thinking, "I'm That ship out there.

And this lady beside me, she's My lighthouse.

Don't ever take her away from Me 'cause I'd be lost."

I can't tell you how much she Means to me.

>> virginia: you already have. Blake...

What's wrong with her? >> blake:

Did krystle ever write to you And tell you about the time she

Was hurt riding a couple of Years ago?

>> virginia: mm-hmm. It caused the miscarriage.

>> blake: we were expecting our First child then.

We had such hopes. >> virginia: she wrote how

Crushed you were. >> blake: did she tell you that

When she fell that she struck Her head?

All these years, I've held back

From talking about it. Maybe it's time now.

>> alexis: and where the hell Have you been?

>> dex: well, you and Hamilton stone were having such

A great time, I didn't want to Spoil things.

>> alexis: oh, so you just left With my cousin sable, hmm?

>> dex: well, that was my Assignment.

>> alexis: I asked you to keep Her occupied, not cling to her

Like a second layer of clothing. >> dex: oh, is somebody in the

- room jealous? - >> alexis: jealous at

Sable? Ever since we were children,

She'sbeen jealous of me. You do know who hamilton stone

Is, don't you, dex? He was undersecretary of state

For a few years, then he was Ambassador to one of those

Third-world countries. Now he runs triworld bank.

>> dex: hamilton stone -- pillar Of our community.

>> alexis: and I knew him when He was just a campaign aide.

Just think, if that election had

Gone differently... >> dex: he'd be hamilton stone,

Pillar of the kitchen cabinet. >> alexis: oh, you can mock him

All you like, dex, but he's the Man who's gonna help me out in

Natumbe. >> dex: ohh.

Another. >> alexis: he knows exactly what

Those people have been doing With my tankers, and he is going

To twist arms to get them back For me.

Supportive, you know, I'm just Gonna have to give you that land

You want for half the price. >> dex: half?

Moment. >> alexis: hmm.

Her. >> virginia: well, she said a

Lot of things. >> blake: she talked about

Killed a man. >> blake: near the lake?

>> virginia: uh-huh. But it's ridiculous.

I mean, krystle committing Murder?
