Original subtitles

Oh, doctor, she's complaining of visual disturbances and severe headache.

Mag sulphate, four grams, IV push, stat.

- All of you, please leave. - l'm staying.

Mr. Carrington, our priority is Kirby now.

- l must keep her quiet. - Doctor, l've got to stay.

Come on, Adam. Come on.

Help her.

Oh, dear God, please, help her.

Dr. Davey, call 294. Dr. Davey, call 294, please.

How is she?

l hope to have her stabilised in a couple of hours.

Well, you're not sure then?

No. Because with her blood pressure so elevated,

the stress on her vital organs so great,

a stroke is a vey real possibility.

Doctor, the night before last, when we brought her in,

you warned us that Kirby could die.

Which is exactly why we're monitoring her.

And the moment she's stabilised,

l'm going to take the baby by Caesarean section.

But you also said that at this point, the baby's chances aren't vey good.

- It's too little, it's too weak. - That's right.

But l can't wait any longer, Mr. Carrington.

There are two lives in jeopardy now.

And, if l may suggest it, why don't you all go on home.

- There's nothing you can do. - Thank you, doctor.

l'm staying.

You and Kystle should just go home.

l know you have to leave for Washington in a few hours.

l'm thinking of postponing that meeting, Adam.

An emergency closed-door meeting of the Energy Studies Commission?

Father, you have to be there.

Yeah, l suppose you're right. l'll be back in the morning.

Adam, do you mind if l stay with you for awhile?

Oh, no, Kystle, l'd appreciate that a lot.

- l'll be back to take you to the airport. - Thank you.

Eveything's gonna be all right, son. Believe me.

Hi.

Oh, l'm gonna be flying to Washington in a couple of hours.

l'll need an overnight bag and a top coat.

Yes, sir. Oh, Mr. Carrington, the staff are vey concerned

about Mrs. Colby's condition.

Well, she's had a little setback, Gerard,

but she's in good hands. The best available.

- Good. - Oh, it's all right. l'll get that.

- Yes? - It's Peter, Blake.

- Where are you calling from, Peter? - from the Los Angeles A�rport.

l've got the diamonds. l'll be in Denver in two hours.

Has there been any word on Allegree?

No, no. Nothing yet.

What's the matter? You sound as �f someth�ng �s wrong.

l still don't like the idea of knuckling under to those damn kidnappers

by paying that ransom and then not bringing the police in this.

Blake, you did put up half the money for the ransom.

And l told you what might happen to the horse.

Yes, yes, l know what you told me. l also know that you--

They're announcing my flight. Speak to you later.

Oh, hello, darling.

Daddy, why are you so antagonistic toward Peter?

Because l have some doubts, Fallon.

Doubts about what?

Partly about the way this whole thing is being handled.

You said, ''partly.'' What else do you have doubts about? Peter?

l've gotta do some packing, l'm flying to Washington shortly.

Let's you and l sit for a minute and talk about this engagement of yours, huh?

Well, there's nothing really that much to talk about.

l'm marying a terrific guy. We're crazy about each other.

Except that you haven't known him vey long, have you?.

No, l haven't. Not in terms of clocks and calendars.

Fallon, that was impulsive.

Just the same way your elopement with Jeff was impulsive.

l would not like to see this marriage end the same way.

Daddy, Jeff has nothing to do with this. It has to do with Peter.

Why don't you iust come out and say it. You don't like him.

Now how the devil can l like or dislike a man l hardly know or know about?

But l do know you, and l do love you vey much.

And l don't want you to maybe get hurt.

Somebody's been badmouthing Peter. l wanna know who it is.

No, never mind. l know who it is. It's Jeff, isn't it?

No, it was your mother.

Oh, that paragon of sanctity.

You know, ordinarily, l wouldn't believe anything that she said.

But?

She claims there was a nasty scandal that Peter was involved in.

And that did make me think that my daughter ought to know more about

the man she's planning to spend the rest of her life with.

All right, mother, exactly what kind of scandal and when did you invent it?

Oh, darling, l've invented a few in my time, and for vey good reason,

but this is not one of them.

Ty one of these canap�s. They're delicious. They've got little nuts

and alfalfa sprouts and all sorts of things.

l asked you something. l want an answer.

All right, you'll get it.

l was in Maiorca when l saw it happen.

Your Peter De Vilbis dumped the princess of Andorra.

Who?

She was an extremely beautiful and vey rich young woman about your age,

with whom he was supposedly madly in love and planning to mary.

He dumped her and flew off to Monte Carlo

with some obscure little French actress with no talent.

At least, not for acting.

Princess was so upset that she attempted suicide.

lt was all extremely tawdy.

And you told Blake all of this out of concern for me?

Well, yes, of course.

l don't want your concern, mother. l just want you to stay out of my life.

Fallon, it's not that easy.

A mother iust can't turn off her feelings for her child.

You should know that, for God's sake.

What would happen if your son was teetering on the edge of a cliff,

wouldn't you reach out and do eveything you could to pull him back?

The way you reached out for me and Mark?

l did you a favour and you know it.

Why don't we talk about what your motives really were then,

and what they are now with Peter.

Okay, let's do that.

Ty jealousy.

Oh, jealousy?

Oh, Fallon, how could l be jealous of you?

You can't stand to see me happy with any man

because you've never accomplished that yourself,

ever since Blake threw you out of his house and out of all of our lives.

Are you finished? Because l've had just about enough

of your daughterly advice for the time being.

Hello, Fallon.

Oh, l see. This isn't the same old stand.

Well, keep it that way, mother. And keep out of my life.

l had to stop by the stables for a couple of minutes, Paul,

but l should be out at the airport in about a half hour. Right.

- You must be tired. - Yes, l am, a little.

Are you sure you don't want me to fly to Washington with you?

Keep you company?

l'm gonna be home early tomorrow morning, darling.

Besides, l must tell you that l feel a lot safer

with one of us here in case there's an emergency.

- You're worried about Kirby. - Yes.

And the horse and Fallon.

Well, l'm concerned about Fallon too.

Not that l know anything about Peter De Vilbis

but l know you, Blake, and your relationship with Fallon,

how the two of you intuitively know if the other's in trouble.

Yes.

Except in this case, there's not much l can do about it, is there?

But maybe l'm wrong about him.

Hopefully, vey wrong.

Martini, dy.

Just back from L.A.?

Yes, just back.

Well, l guess, congratulations are in order.

You and Fallon.

So congratulations.

Thank you.

Look, De Vilbis, l got a favour l wanna ask of you.

Stop teaching Fallon how to fly.

l understand you have a pilot's licence.

Would you prefer to teach her herself?

No, De Vilbis. l don't want her to fly at all.

Fallon is vey emotional

and sometimes her head goes off in a lot of directions.

She cracked up her car once and almost lost our child because of it.

She's determined to learn.

l'm her instructor, her vey good instructor.

ln the air and in bed.

So she tells me.

What's the matter? She never told you about that?

Jeff, stop it.

l'm not gonna stop until l get him to shut up about you.

Oh, God.

lnstead of creating scenes in my hotel and interfering in my life,

why don't you take a look at your own?

Go be with Kirby.

You do remember her, don't you? She's still your wife,

if she lives through what she's going through right now.

Add ten milligrams diazepam for the IV, nurse.

lf that doesn't stabilise her, God help us.

Alexis, before we say good night, do you have any orders for me?

Search under your bed, fix you a nightcap,

- get Dexter for you on the telephone? - Mr. Dexter's in Utah for the night.

Yes, you can fix me a brandy.

Fix one for yourself too.

You seem on edge, Mark. Didn't you enjoy the concert?

lf that fat lady's one of the world's great sopranos, then l'm Mick Jagger.

l agree with you. Her voice is in absolute shred.

She should have been retired years ago.

- That's the first time in a long time. - What is?

That you've agreed with me about anything.

Well, l find you rather agreeable tonight.

Meaning?

Meaning, that at one point during the intermission,

l looked around the lobby, and l did not see a single man

who is nearly as attractive as you are.

That's sweet language, coming from the most beautiful woman in that lobby.

Thank you.

There was a time l used to hear a lot of that upstairs in your room.

Do you miss those times, Mark?

Do l miss them? How do you think l feel,

lying down there evey night, knowing how close you are?

Take off my necklace.

Now...

l know what to do now.

Now take the necklace to your room,

and tomorrow you can take it to Jensen's, the jeweller,

and have the clasp fixed. It's been bothering me all night.

Sweet dreams, Mark.

Say it, that you're happy l'm back.

Ecstatic, in fact.

You're so modest and unsure of yourself.

Just like someone else that l know.

Yes?

Hello?

Yes.

De Vilbis.

Yes.

l have the diamonds.

l understand.

But you must understand this,

if you harm the horse in any way, l'll find you.

Those were the instructions. We're ready to deliver the ransom.

Oh, Peter, l wanna go with you.

What about your father?

l can't do anything without talking to him first.

- He's not here. - Where is he?

He's in Washington in a closed-door emergency session.

Washington? They said, immediately.

What do l do?

Deliver the ransom and let me come with you.

- No. - Please, l wanna come with you.

l won't allow it. l don't want you to take any risks.

What l want is for you to wait for me here till l come back.

Will you promise me?

l promise.

Be careful.

Dr. Gray, call your o_�ce.

Dr. Winfield let me look in on Kirby.

She's still in such pain.

- If she makes it through this-- - Not if, when.

Sory, Jeff. It's my nerves. l'm taking them out on you.

Well, l wouldn't blame you if you did.

You and l have been enemies ever since we first set eyes on one another.

Not only where Kirby is concerned but in business and just about eveything.

Now, l resented your coming over to Colbyco,

so l went back there, purposely,

to put you in your place and show you who's boss.

Well, that's honest.

Well, l think this seems to be the time and the place for it.

You once accused me of never recognising you as an equal.

Not now.

Not when Kirby's life and the baby's life at stake.

All of that seemed so unimportant.

And...

Yes?

Well, l always blamed you for ruining my life with that poisoning.

But it wasn't you, it was Alexis. And l was wrong.

And l'm sory for all of us.

Look, l know you wanna be alone,

so if Kirby's condition changes, give me a call, okay?

l thought l heard your car.

Yeah. And l iust got back from the hospital.

You wanna join me?

Sure.

What is it?

l had no right to mary Kirby.

- Jeff, please don't. - It's only caused a lot of heartache.

l used her to lie myself to leap into a marriage.

Jeff, sometimes a marriage just can't work.

There's too much against it.

And that doesn't mean that it's one person's fault or the other's.

Not always.

You know, l dragged Kirby off to Reno

as a way of getting Fallon out of my system.

l lied to Kirby that night and l've continued to lie to her.

Just as l've lied to myself that my love for Fallon was over.

But it's not. God help me, it's not and it's never going to be.

- Jeff, it has to be. - Why?

Because her life is going in another direction.

De Vilbis? De Vilbis is gonna hurt her, l know it.

And you know what's so ironic? There isn't anything l can do about it.

Not one damn thing.

No, Kirby. No.

- Help her. No. - Mr. Carrington?

Mr. Carrington, are you all right? Are you all right?

Are you all right?

l've gotta see her right now.

l've gotta see Kirby right now.

Mr. Carrington.

Blood pressure, 1 90/1 1 O. Let's get her to intensive care, stat.

Yes, doctor.

Kirby, it's Adam.

Fight. Fight.

You've got to keep our baby alive.

You mustn't lose it.

You can't lose it.

Please.

Please.

Daddy, it's happened. Allegree's back.

- What about the police? - l called them. They're on their way.

- When did you call them? - After l paid the ransom.

Don't tell me you still think l might have done otherwise.

l think l should have been contacted after you got that call.

Peter wanted to but l told him you were in Washington, unreachable.

That's not true. You could have reached me.

l could have stepped out of that meeting for an emergency phone call.

l could've reached you.

That's a fine thanks you're offering for a decision that had to be made.

lt's a fine thanks for Peter risking his life.

He could have been killed out there.

l'm sory.

lf l've said something wrong, l'm sory.

l've been up most of the night

and we've all been under tremendous pressures with Kirby.

Well, at least we've got Allegree back.

Why don't we go out to the stables to take look at him?

The vet checked over him, said he's fine.

No signs of mistreatment.

l gotta say, whoever took him took good care of that beauty.

For $2 million, that's quite a price.

Blake, Sgt. Harrison is here.

Okay.

Okay, put him in here.

l did as instructed.

l was told to take the county roads out of Fraser, two miles from here.

Go on.

l left the diamonds near a blue-painted rock in a canvass bag.

l heard nobody, l saw nobody, and l just left as instructed.

The important thing is that the horse was found at daylight

in the lower pasture, unharmed and well.

What's the matter? Don't you believe me?

ln this county, it's customay to call the police

when a crime's been committed.

Maybe they don't play it that way where you're from.

And maybe you don't know who you're talking to. l'm Peter De Vilbis.

l'm not one of the trash you usually deal with.

Come on, Peter. Let's go.

You got your horse back.

l don't understand the chip on his shoulder.

Well, maybe there's more to Peter De Vilbis than any of us knows.

So far.

That's wonderful news about the horse.

Now we iust have to keep our fingers crossed for Mrs. Colby.

Yes.

l don't know how long this luncheon is gonna last.

lt should be five or six speeches.

- Evelyn Masters is chair person? - Yes.

That'll be one vey long speech.

Oh, l was afraid of that.

Tracy, would you proofread this copy

and get it to the Chron�cle as soon as possible?

Oh, sure.

- Bye. - Bye.

- Good luck. - Thanks.

Hello?

Yes, l am in Mrs. Carrington's office, Arlene.

Well, please, transfer the call.

Mr. Beal. And what do you have for me today?

Oscar Stone?

Oscar Stone. Yeah. Yes, l remember him.

He had some pretty good wells up in the northwest part of the state and...

l don't remember. He got into some kind of trouble.

Well, he's not in trouble anymore.

lt seems that some people bought him out recently.

He's vey healthy again.

Well, good. l'm happy for him.

But Tracy, this has got nothing to do with Denver-Carrington, has it?

Well, l think, in a way, it does.

You see, the people who bought his wells formed this company.

Alexis Colby owns half, Lex.

The other half is a member of your board, Dex Dexter.

Thank you. l appreciate you telling me about this.

By the way, where'd you get this information?

Let's iust say one of the first lessons l learned in public relations was

you need to establish contacts. The best possible.

This one paid off.

Tracy, l am vey impressed with the work that you are doing.

Keep it up.

Oh, you can be sure l will, Mr. Carrington.

l feel about your company as if it were my own home.

And l wanna make sure that my welcome always stays as warm here

as you're making me feel right now.

A lovely warmth.

Yes?

Congressman McVane �s here to see you, Mrs. Colby.

Send the ex-congressman in.

- Hello, Alexis. - Hello, Neal. Come in.

Well, come all the way in, Neal,

unless you've got a nostalgia for that particular spot.

That's where you tried to strangle me one memorable night.

Alexis, when l heard that you agreed to see me,

l thought that we were gonna let bygones be just that.

We are, Neal.

But since l don't have a great deal of time,

l'm gonna come straight to the point. l understand from Mimi Harrison

that you've been talking to her husband about me.

About how l am looking for a top consultant in Washington

when that Canadian tar sands deal comes through, right?

Right.

As you know, l have many influential

and knowledgeable friends in Washington.

Oh, l do know that, Neal. That's why you're here.

Well, Alexis, that pleases me.

l can't tell you how much.

Jay Davenport or Martin Curtis?

What?

l understand that they're the best men available.

Vey influential, vey knowledgeable.

l'd appreciate your advice on which one of them to choose.

- Something wrong? - You know exactly what's wrong.

l am the best man for this job

and you were the one who ruined me, damn it.

- And now you owe me. - Owe you?

l don't owe you or anyone else a thing.

l've had your necklace fixed, Alexis.

Just leave it with my secretay, Mark.

Oh, and Mark, another little job for you.

Please escort Mr. McVane out of my office and out of my building.

Now just a minute, Alexis.

Get out of my sight, you miserable has-been.

Here's to Alexis Colby, the woman with nine lives.

She's still walking around, Jennings.

And neither of us like that vey much, do we?

Speak for yourself, McVane.

Now look, l seem to recall you were arrested

because she had you high on her list of suspects,

people who threatened her life.

But killing is too good for Alexis.

The real answer is blackmail.

Hit her where she lives, in a cheque book.

Oh, l would love to bring her to her knees

and leave her to suffer the way she left me.

You think she's got that much to hide?

There must be lots of dirt where that one comes from.

And who better to find out about it

but the man who is with her most of the time?

- Me? - How about it?

All you have to do is get it, bring it to me.

And together, we will buy her.

Forget it, McVane.

My fingernails are clean, l'd like to keep them that way.

Now look, If that's because of some feeling of loyalty for the lady,

you forget, she's just keeping you around

because she thinks she needs you.

When she decides she doesn't, you are going to be sacked.

l promise you.

Think about it, Jennings.

And don't wory about your nails. l know the best manicurist in town.

- Where are you taking her? - To Surgey.

We've got to take the baby now or we could lose the mother.

- l'll wait outside the operating room. - That's not allowed.

- You'll be much more comfortable-- - l'm not talking about comfortable.

Adam, Adam, Adam. Listen, Kirby is gonna come through this all right.

l've known her a lot longer than you have and l love her a lot too.

She's a fighter.

She always has been, ever since she was a little kid.

We all went on a camping trip once.

Kirby couldn't have been more than about 7 or 8 years old.

And she decided she was going to ride a canoe down the rapids alone.

Well, she did.

And hours later, we had iust about given up hope of ever finding her.

Until we heard a little voice:

''Hey, guys. Over here.''

And we saw her clinging to a rock, smiling through her shivering.

She said, ''Don't look so scared, l'm not. Just come and get me, fast.''

Thanks, Steven.

lt's good to have a brother.

But it's gonna take more than courage to get Kirby and the baby through this.

lt's gonna take a miracle.

Welcome back.

Did your visit to Utah inspire this grand passion?

Well, let's call it inspiration for telling Blake Carrington to go to hell.

l stopped by my hotel, l found a message from him,

phoned him back, and he is vey sory.

Oh, Oscar Stone, maybe?

Oscar Stone, definitely.

Well, l'm seeing your ex-spouse this afternoon

and l am telling him that not anything, not anyone, is gonna stop you and me.

Good. What'd you bring?

A little something the masses refer to as burgers and fries.

l don't like you skipping lunch, Alexis.

But before we have the main course, how about a hot hors d'oeuvre,

speciality of the House of Dexter.

Claudia, you did a fantastic iob arranging the luncheon.

Oh, thanks. l guess it goes with the title banquet manager.

But l wanted to really make it nice.

Mrs. Carrington.

l was delivering something to your office and l found this.

- It was in my office? - No, outside the door.

Thank you, Greg.

What's the matter, Claudia? You look as if you've seen a ghost.

Maybe l have.

This is the second time this has happened.

lt's the same flowers.

lt's the same message.

''Remember, Lancelot.''

And it's addressed to Claudia Blaisdel, not Claudia Carrington.

Matthew used to send me violets from time to time.

He'd always sign the card, Lancelot.

l don't understand.

The first time it happened,

Steven thought it was sent by someone

with a twisted sense of humour.

- l think he's right. - l'm not so sure.

l never saw Matthew after l was supposed to testify at Blake's trial.

Then l had an accident with Lindsay and l wound up in the hospital.

And then Matthew took our daughter and they were both gone.

Did you see him, Kystle?

l know that you both meant something to each other once.

Did he tell you how much he hated me for being with Steven?

Do you think this is his revenge?

Claudia, Matthew is dead.

He died in South America.

But these flowers and this message didn't start

until after l was married to Steven.

What is happening?

ls he back? Is he tying to punish me?

No.

l think you have to push this out of your mind.

Push it out of my mind? l tried.

l tried, l tried the first time, but it stays.

lt stays.

Just like the thought that my little Lindsay may not be dead.

lt stays.

Yes, Blake, l signed a contract with Oscar Stone.

l was gonna make the announcement in a day or so.

- You mean, you and Alexis were. - That's right.

l'm curious. How did you find out about the deal?

- l mean, this fast? - That doesn't matter.

Now do you remember the warning l gave you at the Carousel Ball,

when l found out that you and Alexis were partners in an outside deal?

l remember the warning.

Something about how l was on your board

and l shouldn't deal with the competition.

Well, maybe you remember my answer.

Namely that half my fortune was made in joint ventures

and whom l dealt with was no concern of yours.

You're wrong. Now this deal with Oscar Stone may be small potatoes,

but it means a conflict of loyalties and that's why l am concerned.

Now, l can't stop you from making outside deals,

but l can damn well kick you off my board.

l don't take orders from you, Blake.

You want me off the board, kick.

- Yes? - Mr. Carr�ngton, your son just called.

They've taken Mrs. Colby �nto surgery.

Thank you. l'm going right now.

Hello.

They told me l'd find you in here.

l know, you wanna get around to that dance

that we iust never got around to at the Carousel Ball.

Tracy, how well do you know my father?

Sam Dexter?

Not vey well. Except he's a vey attractive man.

- And l hope he's getting better. - Oh, he's coming along.

This may or may not surprise you but he talked about you quite a bit.

How flattering.

Referred to you as an ambitious-- In fact, a hot-shot PR girl

who seemed to know exactly where she was heading.

lf and when Bill Rocknrell resigned, to the top.

- Really? - Yeah, really.

Except it turned out, Blake gave the job to his wife.

- His prerogative. - Prerogative? That's not stopping you.

Meaning exactly what?

Oh, iust that you're not giving up on anything.

Like how you're making yourself vey valuable to Blake,

just in case Kystle should decide

that she'd rather settle back into that mansion

and leave the business driving to drivers like us.

You have it all figured out, don't you?

Now you tell me. Have l?

Dex.

This sudden fascination you have with who l am or what l might be craving,

does it have anything to do with the fact that l am on top of my job

and, because of it, you're swimming in some vey hot water these days?

Oh, it's hot.

But look, no burns.

What are you doing?

Just keeping them supple,

in case the water gets hotter and hotter.

And where did you learn to do this?

Experience.

l told my father the truth about Kirby and the baby

and he forgave me.

Do l dare tell him the rest?

lf l don't,

if he finds out later...?

l thought it was no time for you to be alone.

Thank you.

Alone is how l've been feeling.

You've been at my side through all of this.

And yet, inside, l still feel alone.

Because no matter how you reach out to me,

l can't take your hand,

when...

When what?

When my own aren't clean.

Adam, no matter what happened between you and Kirby that night,

you're doing eveything you can to make up for it.

lt was wrong and now you're tying to right that wrong.

And if Kirby has forgiven you, well, then you must forgive yourself.

What happened with Kirby,

that sin,

isn't the only sin l've committed.

We, all of us, make mistakes.

Father, about Jeff.

About Jeff and the poisoning.

l...

You what?

l lied.

lt was my idea, not mother's.

She knew nothing about it until the night before Jeff collapsed.

Son, l saw her name on the purchase order for that poison.

You're iust operating on raw nerves right now.

- You don't know what you're saying. - l know exactly what l'm saying.

She didn't know what she was signing.

l did it, Father.

The whole thing was me.

lt was my doing.

l only pray that it's not too late to be forgiven.

That Kirby will be spared.

And my child.

Mr. Carrington?

- Kirby, is she--? - Kirby is alive.

- And the baby? - It was a little girl.

Was?

l'm sory. We lost her.

l'm very sory.
