Previously onDynasty...Look what your lies did to

Steven. He's run off to go find himself and he hasn't come back.

Steven, we're coming to Paraguay to get you, okay?

STEVEN: No, I'm not in Paraguay anymore. I'm in...

I'm not interested in what you've heard.

I'm interested in you leaving.

So what's it gonna take, Jennings?

Mack, there's a certain gentleman staying with me.

I want you to remind him

no one crosses Blake Carrington.

Mack, hi.

Let's just abort mission.

[screams][gunshot]

[horse whinnies][screams]

[helicopter blades whirring]

[indistinct radio chatter]

We need team one to the far side of the stables.

Okay.And then we can send team two...

She's good.

[indistinct chatter]

ALEXIS [panting]: Where are those damn bullets?

[dog barking in distance]

MAN: Picked up something over here!

[monitor beeping]

Hey.

Hey, sweetheart.

Where am I?

You're in the hospital.

You had a fall.

Is the baby okay?

The trauma caused the placenta to detach,

something called a placental abruption.

We were able to stop the bleeding,

but couldn't save the pregnancy.

[exhales]

I'm so sorry.

BLAKE: Honey, hey.

We're lucky we still have you.

What about Mark?

Honey, he didn't make it.

I'll give you some privacy.

Who would've done this?

Maybe it was an accident.

What if it wasn't?

What do you mean?

My family,

they hurt Mark before.

What if they knew

he was in Atlanta and finished the job?

Whoever it is,

I promise you there will be justice.

[phone vibrating]

Hello?

ARTHUR [over phone]: Hello. May I speak

to Fallon Carrington, please?

This is Fallon.

This Arthur Breland. I'm calling from the American embassy

in Paris, France.

A man identifying himself

as Steven Carrington

is requesting a replacement passport.

Okay, how do I know this isn't a scam, or a kidnapper?

Miss, this is the American embassy.

Okay, well,

if my brother is there, can I please speak to him?

[exhales]

STEVEN: Hey, I'm sorry about this.

Steven?

Steven, what the hell is going on?

I mean, is this guy holding you hostage or something?

Because if he is, remember the code word.

Cheerio.Fallon...

Oh, wait, could he hear me?

Okay, we need to change the code word.

Fallon, I'm okay.

But, um, somebody stole my jacket and I lost everything.

Well, were you sober when that happened?

What do you mean, was I sober? I...

I'll fill you in later.

But right now, I just need you to talk to this guy

so that he can get the passport paperwork started.

Please.

Give the phone back to Frenchy.

Love you.

Thank you. Sorry.

[indistinct chatter]

[gate creaking]

[siren wailing in distance]

SAM: Don't worry about knocking.

Oh, really? You spent half the summer

sprawled across a lawn chair in nothing but a Speedo.

Well, that's when I had my summer body.

Okay, well, you're gonna want to pack a coat.

We are going to Paris.

Now?

Well, I don't think it's a great time,

with Cristal, Mark, Steven.

Steven is in Paris.

What?

How do you know?I got a call from him.

He called you?No. The American embassy did.

He lost his passport, he lost his wallet, he lost everything,

so they're getting him a new one.

Is he okay?Well, he said he was,

but you don't disappear for two weeks and then turn up

with no passport and no wallet if everything's fine.

[sighs]

I don't know. I think there was something

he didn't want to tell me, or that he couldn't.

Like, a "cheerio" situation?

He told you the code? That was our code.

Anyway, I asked him if he was sober,

and he did that thing where he gets all defensive

without actually answering the question.

"What do you mean,

was I sober?"Yeah, yeah, exactly.

But Sam, you haven't known Steven

when he's been on one of his benders, not a bad one.

And I don't know what we're gonna find.

So if it's too much, I will go alone.

What? No, of course I'm going. He's my husband.

I'm worried.

I've never been to Paris.

You haven't? Ugh.

Well, I wish we were going under better circumstances,

but it is just divine.

I'll take us to all the best spots.

Assuming Steven's okay,

of course.Of course.

We're going to Paris.

["Suis-Moi" by Cyrille Aimée and Nataly Dawn playing]

♪

Wow.

FALLON: Sam.

What?Is that your noseprint on the window?

[driver speaks French]

[driver chuckles, speaks French]

Keep talking to me in French like I know what you're saying.

FALLON: Welcome to our home away from home.

Well, one of them. Wow.

How do you say wow in French?

"Wow."

And you say you don't know the language.

Come on, let's go find Steven.

Tony, there you are.

One of my guys said you were looking for me this morning?

Well, actually, I was looking for you yesterday, too,

at around 4:30?

Where were you?

I was out back wrapping the rosebushes all day.

Hmm. Well, maybe one of your "guys" saw me dragging

my own trash to the bins. They didn't pick it up, again.

I'll talk to the crew.Good. I wouldn't want to

have to tell Mr. Anders that the groundskeeper

was smoking behind the begonias again.

That was one time.

And Anders already came looking for me this morning, too.

Oh?

They're getting everyone's alibis

for the time of the shooting.

Sounds like you're looking for one.

[scoffs] That is absurd.

Well, then what's going on, Alexis?

'Cause I don't really think you were hauling trash yesterday.

Fine. You're right.

I washere.[chuckles] I knew it.

I am not a murderer, Tony.

I was just trying to not be a scapegoat.

[knocking on door]

You keep your mouth shut.

Blake.

What's going on?

Tony, what are you doing here?

ALEXIS: I needed to borrow a green thumb,

for my ficus.

I need some help, too, from you.

Would you excuse us a moment?

Yes, sir.

[door closes]

What is it?Cristal's coming back

from the hospital this morning.

She lost the baby.

Oh, my God.

Yeah. Mark didn't make it, either.

I-I am so sorry.

We've got police coming through, we've got an investigation

to deal with.

Do they know what happened?

Well, it's too soon to say.

Would you do me a favor?

While I'm tied up, would you, would you go see Cristal?

You want meto sit with her?

I know you've had your differences.

I know we've had ours, too.

But at the end of the day, you're a mother

who's lost her child.

You understand more what she's going through

than I ever possibly could.

Of course.

I mean, I'll do anything I can to help.

Thank you.

[exhales]

FALLON: I have no idea where the staff is.

You shouldn't have to carry your own bags.

You could offer to help.

That's true.

[panting]

Oh, my God, the view.

I mean, wow.

STEVEN: Oh, my God.

Sam.

Fallon.

[chuckles] What are you doing here?

Uh, 'scusez-moi?Shouldn't we be asking you that?

There's so much to catch up on.

Um, I'm really glad you're here.

SAM: Well, I'm glad

you're doing okay.

[quietly]: Maybe glad is strong.

Why didn't you guys tell me you were coming?

Uh, we wanted to surprise you.

You must be ready for a drink after that flight.

Hey, Steven, are you okay?

Of course.Well, your hair suggests otherwise.

I'll text Francois.

We were really worried about you.

I get how it looks.

And I'm really sorry.

I haven't handled this well.[Sam scoffs]

Understatement of the century.

Steven, what happened in Paraguay?

I had a bad trip,

rougher than I let on.

I just came here to get away and I'm already feeling much better.

You've said that before.

I really am this time.

I mean, now I am.

Thanks to my friend George.

George?

And who is George, exactly?

Sam, it's not like that.

I met him in Paraguay, uh, before the ayahuasca ceremony.

He pulled me out when I came unstuck,

especially when I was spiraling about Dad.

It was just nice to have someone to talk to

who didn't know me from before.

No Carrington baggage.

Right. Baggage.

When I told him we had a flat in Paris,

he suggested we come here for a change of scenery,

and, uh, before...He suggested?

What? He's staying here?

[scoffs] Are-are these his?

Yes, Sam. He wears pants.

Oh. So this George guy hears that you have a flat in Paris,

and suddenly, he weasels his way into it.

Things are starting to make more sense now.

You see, Steven has always been

an easy target for gold diggers.

No offence.This isn't that, Fallon.

Let me guess, he's a poor,

Paraguayan boy who'd never seen Paris.He's British.

And it's completely platonic.

I-I know it's our family's tendency

to see the worst in people, but George looked out for me

when I-I couldn't.

I want to meet him.Of course.

You will.

Right now I need to go to the embassy

to finalize some papers.

I'd say come with, but it always takes a bit

and I can't bring anyone in with me, so...

why don't we all meet for dinner later?

Fine, but somewhere iconic, please. I mean,

we shouldn't waste a good meal.

I suppose I could eat.

How about Café Marly? 8:00?

I'll call George.

You're gonna love him.

I really am glad you're here.

[sighs]

SAM: I always thought I'd walk along

the banks of the Seine for the first time with Steven.

Not his sister.

Not that this isn't great.

No, no, it's my dream come true.

Look, I feel for you, Sam.

I mean, you met my brother when

he was at his most stable and then, you know,

he had his whole identity crisis,

wanting to go find himself

and now, well, you're seeing

the full tilt Carrington spiral.

I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt

and not be the jealous husband.

But why didn't he mention this George guy before now?

Because I am right.

I mean, look, Steven probably realizes

he's being grifted, but right now,

it's easier for him to be around someone

who's fake than someone who's real.

George gets his free Parisian vacation

and my brother gets a vacay from reality.

Right, so same reason why you were

so game to fly across the Atlantic

and get away from Culhane?

After you slept with him again?

Ah, look.

A street artist in Paris, how novel.

Cristal?

Blake asked me if I would come up.

I'm probably the last person you want to see.

And I'd understand if you didn't want to see anyone.

Could you give us a moment?

After Adam...

[door closes]I went to bed and wouldn't leave.

I closed the blinds, turned off all the lights

and locked the door.

When did it stop?

The pain?

It didn't.

It just...

moved behind other things, instead of in front of them.

Steven, Fallon...

[exhales]

They said I might not be able to have children.

And Mark...

will never get to do anything because of me.

Cristal, it's not your fault.

You know, the guilt I felt after Adam,

all the guilt in the world, it didn't bring him back.

I just hope that you

don't spend 30 years trying to find

some sort of... closure.

I won't.

Once the investigation confirms who did this.

Confirms?

Do they have a lead?

They will find out.

Blake promised.

Hmm.

And if you can't trust family,

who can you trust?

[doorbell rings]

Mack?

Ms. Carrington. It's been a while.

Excuse me, Mr. Carrington is expecting you.

Please excuse us.

BLAKE: Get you a drink, Mack?

I never drink on the job.

And Anders said you had a new one for me.

Yeah, actually...

I want to talk about the last one.

What happened yesterday?

Yesterday?

Mark Jennings.

Nothing happened.

Well, then let's talk about what didn't happen.

Because they drove Mark's body off my property yesterday,

my wife was almost killed

and my child is gone.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I told you to rough him up.

And then you told me to stand down.

So I did.Or you didn't get the message,

you came here to do the job and you screwed it up.

Remember who you're talking to, Blake.

You're the one who called me.

You went too far.

And now you're lying to cover your tracks.

Be careful.

And remember who you'retalking to.

[laughing]

Well, it's nice of you to join us.I'm so sorry.

The embassy always takes forever.

Thought George would have been here by now.

You didn't bring him?

No, he said he was gonna meet us here.

Well, it sounds like Boy George doesn't want

to show his face to your family.

Nothing suspicious about that.

I chose this spot because he went

to the Louvre this afternoon.

Maybe he got lost.

I sent him with a private docent.

Did you also buy him the Mona Lisa?

Still pushing your grifter theory?

The only thing you're proving right now, Fallon,

is that I was right to run away from

our wildly paranoid, judgmental family.

Paranoid?

Okay, I'll play.

What do we know about George?

What do you mean, "what do we know?"

I mean, what's his last name?

Emerson. Dubious name.

Okay, and where is he from? What does he do?

London, he's a philanthropist.

God, Fallon, would you just back off?Steven, take it easy.

I'm fine, I just...

keep getting the third degree. I'm sorry.

I only care because I love you and if this George

is such a good influence, then why are you a glass ahead

of us already? I mean, doesn't he know

that you went to rehab?I hate to admit it,

but she has a point.

George has only looked after me.

Oh yeah. And what better way

to look after you than to keep you

liquored up and isolated from the people

who truly care about you.

Okay, you're gonna realize how stupid this all sounds

when you actually meet him. In fact,

I'm gonna go find him so we can

clear this up once and for all.

Thanks for a gorgeous dinner.Really?

At least we know something now

about this George Emerson, philanthropist from London.

Okay, fine, that's all we know.

But I have a cousin who can help us find out more.

BLAKE: No, you killed him and now you're lying about it.

MACK: I didn't kill anyone, Blake.

I told you I wasn't anywhere near here.

Then who was?

[knock on door]

Alexis.

[clears throat]

What's going on?

Well, I was just up with Cristal.

Yeah, is she all right?

Under the circumstances, I suppose.

But... Thank you for trying, at least.

So, I'm about to finish up this meeting, so...

I'm sorry, I know, I didn't, I didn't mean to interrupt.

Thank you, Alexis, really.

But as I was coming down, I-I happened to notice

the guy that was coming to see you, that's Mack, right?

Yes. Who used to work here?

Is he coming back?

Well, it's just that I saw him around yesterday, too.

Where? When?

Um... at the stables?

Around 3:30 or 4:00.

Excuse me, please.

[door opens]

JULIETTE: Ah, Steven. The smile...

FALLON: That emptied a thousand bottles of champagne

one New Year's Eve at the Moulin Rouge.

So Parisian legend has it.

JULIETTE: Tell him I'm disappointed.

He's been here for how many weeks in Paris

and doesn't call his favorite cousin?

Well, he didn't even call us, but you know Steven.

[speaks French]

What did she say?

Steven has always been a loner.

You know, his alleged friend

didn't even show up last night,

and then, when we went to leave this morning,

Steven was still waiting for him.

So maybe us showing up was enough to scare him off.

I'll have Papa's security team

look into the George person, don't worry.

How is Uncle Benjamin?

In London, dieu merci.

Which means I'm having a little party tonight

at the château. You must come.

Oui, merci. Merci.

She's the Frenchest person I've ever met.

Well, when her dad was disinherited

by my grandfather, he married a French billionaire.

Crazy money, questionable sources.

So, if anyone can find dirt on George, it's them.

Plus they can make him disappear.

You mean kill him?

I'm sure it won't come to that.

You know, unless it does.

Fallon, what if you're wrong?

Maybe George isn't a grifter, we don't know.

Sam, you have known Steven for, what, a year?

I have known him for 26.

Trust me, this is his pattern.

Uh... I'm gonna head back to the flat.

I'm jet-lagged.

FALLON [on voice mail]: Leave me a message and I'll consider it.

[beep]Hey.

Hate to interrupt your time in Paraguay,

but I need to talk to you, Fallon.

Um, call me when you can.

If you're looking for Fallon, she isn't here.

I'm not. You, uh, okay?

Cristal's favorite. Mint chip. [chuckles]

[softly]: Oh.

I didn't know what else to do for her.

With Sam and Fallon gone,

I'm going a little stir crazy.[laughs]

You want to help run a community rehab

and diversion initiative for the Atlantics?

Oh, I-I think just sitting there

is probably closer to my skill set. Yeah.

You're about as qualified as I am.

I handled everything I could, but I could use

Blake to look over a couple things.

You got this. Do I?

I've never really talked to anyone

about my own issues with substances.

Much less a room full of strangers.

Well, it sounds to me like you're exactly

the right man for the job.

How do you figure?

Well...

this program is for the community, right?

The community you grew up in.

Blake hasn't lived it.

You have.

As long as you remember that,

you'll know what to do.

You know, they...

have people who will literally buy that for you.

I know. I like to do things for myself.

Andfor other people.

It's refreshing.

[gasps softly]

George.

Where have you been?

What do you mean?

You never showed up to dinner.

And then you were out all night.

I never showed up?

I waited at Café Julien for an hour.

I told you we were at Marly.No.

You said Julien. And I had plans late last night.

Friends in town.

We had a whole conversation about...

Do you not remember any of this?

No, we...

Well, why didn't you answer when I called?

Like, seven times.

Honestly, I was over it.

I assumed you'd gotten drunk or high, bailed on dinner,

and forgot to tell me.

Or maybe you changed your mind

about introducing me to your family.

Considering...[intercom buzzes]

Who's that?

[intercom beeps]

Hey, it's Sam.

Hey, come on up.[buzzes]

Of course I want you to meet my family.Well, are you sure

you want them to see you right now, like this?

All right, what? I didn't go to rehab

for a joint and a glass of wine.

You said yourself, Steven,

you've got an addictive personality.

Seriously, you, too?

Three days ago, it was you calling the dealer.

Guess as long as I'm paying, right?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Where did that come from?

[doorbell buzzes]

STEVEN: Hey there. You okay?

Are you? Who were you yelling at?

Uh, no one. I mean, George.

We just-- You know, it's not important.

I'm just glad you finally get to meet him.

Yeah, me, too.

George?

Does he smoke pot?

[siren wailing nearby]

Where'd he go?

Please tell me this isn't another Ted Dinard situation.

No.

I don't know where he went.

The embassy find your passport?

No, they're mailing a new one.

I have no idea how, but he must have slipped out somehow.

Where did you find this?

You weremugged, right?

I mean, you...

you didn't pretend to lose your passport

so you wouldn't have to come home?

What? No.

Steven. What's going on?

Nothing.

Of course I want to come home to you, Sam.

I was coming home, but then I-I got mugged, and...

things just... you can ask George. I'm...

We, um...

saw your cousin.

Juliette?

She was surprised you were here in Paris.

Anyway, she's having a party tonight.

Maybe we can all go together?

That actually sounds really lovely.

I've missed you, Sam.

["L'amour Le Jour" by Le Couleur playing]

[woman singing in French]

Where is Steven?

Riding with Sam.

My friends can't wait to see him.

[gasps] It's Bo's favorite cousin.

JULIETTE: Say, "Bonsoir, belle."

Santé.Mm-hmm.

Now, who can I introduce you to?

You are single, are you not?

Things are complicated.

I wish I could go back to a time when they weren't.

And I wish we could be 16 again.

You know, Sam is right.

It's impossible for you to be more French.

[sighs]

Where's Steven?

He's, uh, picking up George.

We need to talk.

Um, parlez-vousnow.

Okay.

Santé.

[punch lands]

BLAKE: You're just gonna keep denying it, aren't you?

I know it was you!MACK: I didn't do it.

[punch lands][Mack grunts]

[coughing]

This is crazy.

You're crazy.

I've been perfectly clear.

It doesn't have to be this way.

Just tell me the truth.

I wasn't here.

And whoever told you I was

is lying to you.

[both grunt]

[coughs]

Then who was here?

Who hurt my wife?

Who killed my child?

Look,

I'm sorry.

You admit it.No.

I'm sorry for you and your wife, but I had nothing to do with it.

You're just gonna keep on denying it.

I know it was you. Just tell the truth.

[door opens]

Cristal.

BLAKE: Cristal.

["Les Voiles" by Poom playing]

FALLON: Why would Steven

lie about being mugged?

Same reason he'd lie about all of it.

Steven took off after he learned he wasn't a Carrington. Right?

Yeah.He was basically having an identity crisis.

Stolen passport? Stolen identity?What's your point?

Well, maybe Steven did have a really bad trip on ayahuasca.

Like, mental break bad.

And... maybe George isn't real.

And that's why we haven't seen him.

Like you said,

it's harder to be with someone real

than someone fake.

I appreciate the pop psychology,

but have you completely lost it?JULIETTE: Oh!

Fallon. I just heard from my family's

security team.

They found nothing much

on George.Well, that doesn't mean anything.

The closest match they found

was in that novel, Room with a View?

What about it?

Uh, George Emerson, the love interest.

Steven was obsessed with that book in college.

Probably why he named him George.

Look, hopefully we're both wrong

and, uh, George shows up,

and he's a wealthy, super real, super platonic person.

Though I'll settle for real.

♪

I thought Steven was sober.He had a rough year.

If he needs to see someone,

the best clinic in the world is in Paris.

You know my mother

had her issues.

He said

he and George got in an argument in the car on the way here,

and George took a cab home.

Well, that doesn't mean...

Actually, I don't know what that means.

Well...

he wants a drink.

Just go back upstairs.No, please. I didn't do this.

Shut up. Just shut up!

MACK: It wasn't me.

Thank you.

[spits]

Come on, Blake. Blake, come on.

You got to believe me. Please, no.

Your drink.

Thanks.

Wait, is this soda water?

It's important to stay hydrated.

Just say you're cutting me off, Sam.

What is up with you?

You know what's up.

We've been over this. I left because I needed time,

but you won't give it to me.

Instead you and Fallon show up here

without warning, judging me,

trying to drag me home like a child.

We're just worried that, with all the drinking

and the ayahuasca

and the fact that we can't seem

to actually see George that...

Is it possible that maybe...

he isn't real?

Are you kidding me?

You've been under a lot of pressure, Steven,

and it's understandable that...This is completely insane.

It is understandable that you made up George

to protect you from the hard truths, like maybe...

you don't want to come home.

Or be with me.

So you think I'm more likely to make someone up

than have a real conversation?

Well, considering all you do is run away

from difficult situations...

Okay, you want to have a hard conversation, Sam?

I hooked up with George.

Oh, my God.

I knew it.

It was when we were on ayahuasca, and...

You lied to me, Steven.

Tell me everything right now.Sam...

Tell me!I can't! I don't even remember it.

I blacked out more than once.

I've been really depressed, Sam.

I was practically suicidal over messing up with George,

but at the time-- I'm sorry--

he offered me something that you couldn't.

A clean break.

And that's why you sent the divorce papers.

I was wrong to.

I didn't mean for any of this to happen.

And George and I are just friends now, really.

Are you telling me you didn't get lonely at all

while I was away?Not...

I-I mean...

Not like that.Sam.

Say it.

Well, I did kiss one guy.

And I almost hooked up with the babysitter,

but that's totally different.

I-I actually don't even want to know.

I'm aware this has been so hard on you, Sam.

I just want us to move on.

[crying]: Me, too.

I can't chase you around the world

to try to convince you that I'm enough.

I'm done.

Yeah. Yeah, the doctor's gonna see him.

Okay. Thanks so much for everything, really.

That was Juliette.

I told her you were insisting on no visitors,

but she's just as stubborn as you are.

I still think we could find a comparable clinic in Atlanta.

I can't go back.

I mean, yes, sure,

I need time to dry out, but more than that...

Going home?

I...

I just can't deal with that, with...

reality, clearly.

What do I tell Dad?

Please don't.

We need to administer an IV.

It's normal procedure for hydration.

'Cause it's important to stay hydrated.

Okay, I'll give you guys a minute.

I love you, Steven.

I love you, too, Fal.

[Steven and nurse speak French]

I feel sick.

Everything I said at the party,

I just want to take it back, Steven.

I don't.

It needed to be said.

But you were wrong about one thing.

You are enough.

You're more than enough

for the person who actually deserves you.

But that's not me.

What?

Of course it is.

How could it be

when I don't even know who I am?

The person I was when we met,

he doesn't exist,

no more than George, I guess.

Steven... My whole life

has been nothing but pressure and expectations.

That's what I was running away from.

I needed a way out.

Best thing you can do for me right now

is to give me one.

Please.

[man singing in French]

ALEXIS: Cristal, how are you feeling?

Better. Thank you.

And thank you for yesterday.

It meant a lot to me.

To both of us.

Juliette said something I can't stop thinking about.

"In life and love, there's no going back."

What'd she mean by that?

Well, she's French, so everything.

It was about me and Culhane, but...

I get it.

I love Steven,

but, uh...

I have to move on,

even if it hurts like hell.

Does that make me a terrible person?

Of course not.

As long as moving on

doesn't mean moving out.

Please stay at the manor.

I can't lose another brother, not right now.

MICHAEL: Thanks for coming.

I'm guessing you expected to see

Mr. Carrington up here instead of me, but...

[knocking on door]

Fallon, what are you doing here?

I was on my way to your office.

I'm sorry I missed your call yesterday.

You didn't have to come all the way here to tell me that.

You could've just... called me back.

I know. I'm sorry.

I was out of town dealing with some... stuff.

Anyway, in the middle of all of that,

my mind kept coming back to you... and us

and the other night, and, um...

I don't want to string you along.

I don't want to hurt you, so I have to tell you

that I need to move on, Culhane.

I thought we did.

Oh, I called you for some work advice,

but I-I figured it out.

Oh.

Okay, well... great.

Sorry, I-I've got this meeting.

[phone chiming]Yeah, okay.

Hey, Kirby.

Hate to see you like this, Steven.

He's not real. He's not...

You're right. I'm not real.

I'm not really George, anyway.

Didn't take too much digging to find that interview

where you cited Room with a View

as the book that most influenced you.

Influenced me, too.

George Emerson made for a great icebreaker, didn't it?

I've so loved getting to know you, Steven.

You're so generous,

so trusting, you actually believed me

when I said that we hooked up.

What?

You said...

No.

I'm not even gay.

But you were so out of your mind on ayahuasca,

oh, you would've believed anything.

Why would you lie about that?

I didn't want you running back to Sam.

But then you started feeling better,

talking about going home.

I stole your passport so you couldn't.

Little did I know

that that would bring Sam and Fallon here.

Bonjour.

FALLON: Bonjour. This is Fallon Carrington.

We'll be wheels down in an hour.

I just want to make sure the staff

is prepared for our arrival?

[speaks French]

GEORGE: I knew then that I had to speed up the game.

STEVEN: What game?

Hey there. You okay?

SAM: Are you? Who were you yelling at?

GEORGE: The one we've been playing, Steven.

George. We just-- You know what, it's not important.

I'm just glad you finally get to meet him.

GEORGE: See, all I had to do was convince Sam and Fallon

that you'd lost the plot.

I couldn't have you telling them about me,

or rather have them believe you.

Then throw in your issues with drugs and alcohol,

and the fact that you were

in the middle of an identity crisis.

George?

[disconnected phone tone]

AUTOMATED VOICE: We're sorry. You've reached...

GEORGE: I could have never imagined it

to go so spectacularly well.

You...

You feeling drowsy?

I gave you just a little something to help you

relax. Why would you...

Why would you do...Better question:

Why would you walk away from such a perfect life?

See, all this started

as a sort of morbid curiosity,

you know, to see firsthand the life that I've been denied.

And you were the easiest way in.

This wounded bird, so far from home.

[American accent]: Away from the Carrington fortress.

Your accent...And the more I got to know you, the more I grew to resent you,

how ungrateful you are. You had everything.

And you walked away from it.

And now I'm gonna claim it,

everything my father gave you.

You know, it is a real shame

you won't be there to welcome me home, brother.

Adam?

But we'll always have Paris.

You knew...
