Previously onDynasty...

What the hell is that?It's my family crest. It's a warning.

You look wonderful, Mother. One of a kind.

I'll keep your secret if you keep mine.

You hijacked my book event to publicize another author?

Liam's book is about me.

I'm proud to have my son working alongside me

in the family business.

The days of my silent partnership

in this club are over.

It sounds like somebody should do something about that.

I told the painters they could get started

on my new office in an hour.

You can't turn your back for a second around here.

GEORGE: I can't believe that breakfast is this extravagant

every morning.I still can't believe

that you're here every morning.

You know we're thrilled to have you here, son.

I've always said family is the most important currency in life.

No, you've always said that money

is the most important currency.[clears throat]

Speaking of family,

Steven and my divorce is finally official.

I'm so sorry, Sam.

It's a new chapter.

My reinvention.

But, um, I couldn't have survived this without you guys.

Well, maybe without you.

So,

to say thank you and to, uh, debut the new me,

I thought I could throw a party here.

If that's okay with you guys.

Sure. Um, just one question.

Who's the new you, and does he work for a living?

That's two questions, Daddy.

Sam, is there any way

that you can thank me by not inviting me?

Only because I'm very busy,

and this way we can skip the awkwardness

of me walking in on you and some rando again.

You're coming.

Wouldn't miss it. Theme?I was thinking

something sexy,

like animal print or under the sea.

Do you think we can turn the living room into an aquarium?

Right, because nothing says sexy like fish.

What about a masquerade party?

Cliché.

No.

To honor

your reinvention

and reveal your new identity.

I love that.Wait. Does this mean

that we'll have to wear masks? That touch our skin?

It's also a security nightmare.

That's true. Yeah. I hadn't thought about that.

And you're right, Fallon.

It is a bit cliché. I mean,

I haven't been to one before,

uh, but I didn't grow up in this house.

SAM: We're doing it.

Saturday night.

You know, it's just a shame

that Mom won't be released from the hospital in time.

Oh, and before you ask, no, she isn't seeing visitors yet.

No one's asking.

[sighs]

You were up early this morning.

I hope I didn't wake you. I got a call.

David Etz was injured in a car accident.

The goalie? Is he okay?

We'll know more after his MRI.

I'm more concerned about how it happened.

Now, I don't have all the details,

but something doesn't add up.

The roads were clear.

His toxicology test's come back negative.

Well, maybe he can't control that sports car he bought.

I don't think it was his fault.

You think someone caused the accident on purpose?

Not just someone.

Your family.

Ai yai yai.I don't have any proof,

but first Freddie's drugged.

Then my beverage license at the stadium is delayed

a week before opening day.

I find it hard to believe that's a coincidence,

especially after you told me your father was out to get us.

And then let's not forget

my new Koons outdoor sculpture,

bulldozed in the backyard.

And the neighbors apologized.

I'm right about this. You know it. Mi amor,

sometimes an accident is just an accident.

Atlanta drivers are the worst.

Everyone knows it.

Besides, what else are you going to do for security?

The only thing you forgot is snipers on the roof.

Well, I can make a call.

I really still can't believe it.

I look just like... [gasps]

[sighs]

I look just like I did five years ago.

I'm sure you do. You look amazing.

The surgeon did an excellent job.Does this mean

I can finally get out of here and show the world the new me?

Patience, Mother. Even though you look amazing,

the doctor suggests you stay here a few extra days

just so you can completely heal.Oh, but I am healed.

I mean, between you and me,

this isn't the first time I've had work done.

I said just a few more days.

I just thought because I...No.

Besides, I have come up with the perfect way

to reintroduce you to the world.

What are your feelings about masquerade parties?

Whatever this Player Development Fund is,

it's getting $10 million in team money.

And it doesn't seem to be developing much of anything.

You think Blake Carrington's laundering money

through the Atlantix organization?

I think that's just the tip of the iceberg.

And I don't think it's his money.

Why would he be doing someone else's laundry?

The Atlantix recently closed a deal

on land for their new stadium.

Land that I owned

and would have never sold to Blake Carrington.

That's why he used a shell company

owned by Silvio Flores.

TheFlores in Mexico

who owns the club Azteca soccer team?That's the one.

He helps Blake get that land.

Blake helps him clean his dirty money.

I lose my community center.

It sounds like you're just upset about this stadium deal.

Man, you think I would make all this up

just 'cause Blake hurt my feelings?

Do you need me to list

all the illegal things he's done over the years?

All I'm saying is that there's nothing here

that connects Silvio Flores.

Man, except the fact that Blake's engaged to his daughter.Right.

But Cristal has been estranged from her family for years.

We've been trying to nail Blake Carrington

for a long time.

In order to build a case, we need a whole paper trail.

Well, I might be able to help with that.

I assume you've seen this.

If it's a tasteful modeling photo of you in a mask,

I have not.It's not.

Though that's not a bad idea.

Anyway, I was looking to find

some single, famous and fabulous people to invite to the party

when, uh, this article popped up.

"Liam Ridley, heir to Van Kirk fortune,

writes book about romance with It girl Ashley Cunningham"?

Wait, people think this character

is supposed to be Ashley?Yeah.

All the gossip magazines do.

But why do people care about Ashley?

Because apparently she's like the Meghan Markle

of the Upper East Side, something I wish I'd known

before I shaved off her eyebrows.

It's two powerful New York families coming together.

Their social media hashtag is #SuperCouple.

Well, first of all, they are not a couple anymore.

And second of all, the character is me, okay?

I mean, her name is Farrah,

which is basically Fallon without the Ls.

I think I would know. I'm the publisher.

So, are you upset as a publisher or as the fake ex-wife?

I'm not upset, okay? Not at all.

It's better that people don't find out, honestly,

because it would be a giant conflict of interest.

So this is all business? You have no feelings for Liam?

Honestly, I don't know what I feel,

and I'm not sure Liam does, either.

But I do know that the book had a slight increase

in presales this week.

I mean, I thought it was just a computer glitch,

but I bet it's all this Ashley gossip.

Oh, it definitely is.

I'm just saying a few public appearances

to keep the book in the news until the official release.

I understand what you're suggesting,

but I'm gonna have to decline.

Okay, look, for some reason,

people are interested in you and Ashley

as though you're New York royalty.

And we haven't seen this kind of momentum in presales

since the book was announced.

So the fact that it's not the truth,

that the character's not about Ashley, that doesn't bother you?

The only thing that bothers me

is that your presales...Yeah, they're terrible.

I get it. I just... I think it's weird

you want me to parade around with my ex-girlfriend.

Well, you couldn't parade around with me even if you wanted to.

Not that I'm saying you want to.

It's just, I mean, what would people say?

Your publisher putting out a book about herself

written by her ex? Not great optics.

I just thought we were on the same page.

I'm just focusing on what's best for you.

Also, how would you even get Ashley to agree to this?

Ask her yourself.

Come on in!

[chuckles] Hi, Liam.

So, what, you two are friends now?

Mm, wouldn't say friends.

FALLON: No.

But we did bury the hatchet.

And I'm all about female empowerment,

and, uh, two girls fighting over the same guy,

it's so My Best Friend's Wedding.

And what are you getting out of this?

Nothing. I'm doing it for you.

I feel bad about how I ended things.

So when Fallon said this would really help with book sales,

I figured it was a sign.

And it is nice to see you again.

[chuckles]

Aw.

Going in for a hug. That's nice.

Hey, so,

I set up your first interview. You guys let me know

if you need any talking points...ASHLEY: I think we'll be okay.

We've handled the press before

when we cochaired a gala for the Bronx Zoo.

So, shall we?Go.

Bye-bye.

♪

Okay.

[scoffs] Adios.

[phone chiming]

You are aware of how grating

that constant chirping is, correct?

Well, I can't help it.

The RSVPs are coming in fast and furious.

Could they come in fast and silent?

Unless, of course, you're almost done.

Although I notice that you've invited

almost the entire population of Atlanta.

Oh, they're just friends. Friends of friends.

Good-looking strangers.

I need advice.

Lose the jacket.

I mean about something specific.

Oh, I have a delivery I need to attend to. Sam,

keep that list to under a hundred

of your closest friends of friends.

So, how's project Ash-Liam going?

It's good. They have their first interview this afternoon,

and they're coming to the masquerade party.

So you're totally comfortable with that?

Of course. I haven't done anything

except be a smart businesswoman

and capitalize on a great marketing opportunity.

I meant are you comfortable

throwing your ex together with his ex?

A woman you hated, last time I checked.

I don't hate her anymore.

And, plus, I mean, it's not like they're actually dating.

Are you guys getting back together?

Getting back together? We were never a real couple,

unless you count that fake relationship for his family.

Not to mention, I am now his boss,

which brings a whole other set

of problems. So, no.

And, plus, I don't even know what the book means anymore,

which brings me back to the advice.

What is this?

It's Liam's book.

I need you to read and analyze it.

This Farrah character-- is it a love letter to her?

Is it a farewell? I don't know.

But I'm heading back to the office,

and I expect a full report when I get back.

Well, is there a Wiki page I can read instead?

Because this looks like a lot of words.

GEORGE: I'll read it.

I minored in American literature.

Did you major in being creepy?

Because it's sort of weird,

how you just pop up out of nowhere.

Magic.

Look, uh, I'm heading to the hospital

to check on the Atlantix goalie,

but, after that, I've got nothing but free time.

I can be very insightful.

No.

Sam's got it.

You're late.

Slow reader?

Didn't want to miss anything.

People like Blake move millions around all the time, okay?

I wanted to make sure it was actually missing.

And? It's gone, right?

So, we take it to Blake,

tell him it goes public unless he resigns from the team.

It's not enough.

We have one chance to make a move.

Blake has to believe that there's a smoking gun.

Like what?

Like the whole paper trail.

Okay? We-we trace the dirty money coming in

and the clean money going back out.

I've been thinking about this.

I was at the manor the other day,

and, when I got there,

Anders was outside,

signing for a delivery.

Two or three pallets of wine.

I've worked there for years.

Anders doesn't handle routine deliveries.

But he does handle Blake's dirty work.

Wh-What are you saying?I'm saying

I think a lot of cash can fit in those pallets.

Okay, so... get back in there and see.

All right, I'll, uh...

I'll hack into the team network

and I'll see if I can pull some more financials.

If we can close this loop,

Blake will finally get what he deserves when we take him down.

♪

Hector!

How's Mexico treating you?

Still got a corner on the energy market down there?

Good.

I need a favor.

I was hoping, given our long history together,

I'd earned the right to call one in.

It's a little bit of an ask, but, um...

I will make it worth your while.

Let's talk soccer

or, as you guys call it, football.

DEBRA: What's amazing to me

is how well you seem to get along as exes.

You come from two well-connected families

who frequently socialize,

yet there doesn't seem to be any friction.

Well, we've known each other our entire lives, Debra.Yeah.

I mean, in the rarefied air we grew up in...

[laughs]No, it can be hard

to meet people, so... you hold on to the good ones.

DEBRA: Well, I think that's what makes people so excited

about the book,

a love story about people connecting for real.

I've always had a crush on him.

[Liam laughs]Wh-When we were nine,

I tripped him on the playground during P.E.

so he would fall into a mud puddle.

But I only did it so that I could clean him up. [chuckles]

[snorts] Gross.

Do you remember that?

LIAM: Yeah, I do.Yeah? [chuckles]

LIAM: My mother made me take three showers in the pool house

before she let me back inside.

So, thank you for that.

You're welcome. [giggles]

DEBRA: So, Ashley, you're known as a bit of a social animal.

Clubs, parties, fashion shows.

Did you two hook up at one of those places?

Our first kiss was actually at the sixth grade dance.

Were there fireworks?

It was more... awkward.

Kind of like this.

[groans] Skank.

That's great. Yeah.Did you get on me?

Just a little bit. [laughs]Oh, wow.

You two are adorbs. [chuckles]Aw, thank you.

DEBRA: So, any tidbits from the book you'd like to share?

Not really.

It's a work of fiction, remember.

So I just want people to buy it and read it for themselves.

DEBRA: Aren't you the savvy businessman?

Ashley, I know you've dated a number of A-list celebs

before Liam.

So, are you seeing anyone now?

No. No, I'm not.

Um,

I'm actually starting to wonder if we made a mistake,

ending things when we did.

Allison, I'm gonna need a new muffin!

And if you could please set up an appointment

with Liam tomorrow.

Make sure he comes alone.

DEBRA: It's a love story about people connecting for real.

Well, I have always had a crush on him.

[chuckles]: Aw.Yeah.

[knocking]And when we were nine...

Does this say sexy and mysterious?

No, that says Mardi Gras, not masquerade.

Well, what about this?

Hey,

will you look at this? Please?

Okay, when Ashley takes Liam's hand,

does he look at her in an adoring sort of way

or a "how was I ever with you" kind of way?No.

We're not doing this.

And between that interview and the dinner date,

you're gonna go crazy.

You're right. It is beneath me.

What dinner date?

No. No, no, no.

You are not leaving here until I hear every detail up to

and including what Ashley ate for dinner.

Okay.

[exhales]

What?

I did not authorize this date.

Oh, look. Right there.

That is the look of two people falling back in love.

Oh, God, Sam,

I created a monster.

What did you think would happen?

Haven't you seen a romantic comedy?

On the plus side,

I read the book.

Oh, really?

No. Just the first and last chapters.

Sam!Back off.

I have a party to plan.

But, seriously,

do you think he wrote that about you and not Ashley?

There are direct quotes.

Private conversations that I had with Liam.

He just created a different love story for us.

If you say so. She just...

seems so nice.

But I guess it is a work of fiction.

In that case,

I do think Liam still has feelings for you.

Especially on page 525.

Ooh. His feelings could be slipping away.

He did write that a while ago.

So, you should figure out what you want

before he figures out he wants someone else.

Oh, and, um,

Adam. You snuck up on me.

Sorry. I just, uh, came to get some wine,

and then here you are.Yeah.

I was, uh-- I was gonna pull some bottles for opening day.

I figured maybe I could put some of Blake's favorites

in the luxury boxes.

Maybe even some from... his vineyard.

That's such a thoughtful touch.

Team's lucky to have you, Michael.

Thank you.Speaking of the team, I've been talking to Jeff

about collaborating on some outreach projects,

but they haven't really been gaining any traction.

I know you're invested in the community, too.

Do you have any advice?

About the outreach or about Jeff?

Well, I know you guys go way back, and I...

I admire a friendship that's stood the test of time.

But I can imagine that this whole

Carrington-Colby feud must have been...

you know, complicated for you.

[chuckles] Honestly, I try to stay out of it.

I mean, Blake may have made some mistakes with the Colbys,

but he also gave me the opportunity of a lifetime.

Well said.

Didn't you come down here for some wine?

Changed my mind.

FALLON: You're creating a spectacle.

I mean, there is such a thing as too much publicity.

I don't know. I thought your date last night was a bit much.

Isn't this what you asked for?

Me and Ashley out in the world.

To a point. I just-- I don't want the public to get sick

of the perfect couple that breaks up

and then still manages to be a perfect couple.

Okay, well, until that happens,

why do you care if we have dinner together?

I...

Because I am your publisher,

and it is my job to care.

Besides, I heard her say something like

she made a mistake. So, what,

are you guys gonna give it another go?

Not that I care.I don't know.

Okay, what's best for book sales?

Again, this was your idea.

So if you think you made a mistake...I didn't think

you would be so happy to run with it.

I mean, considering the character

isn't even based on Ashley. Right?

So maybe the ending's just not what I thought it was.

I'm sorry, but I told my story

the way that I needed to tell it, Fallon.

I-In a way that allowed me to move on.

Liam...

why did you want me to read this book?

I don't know.

[sighs]

I guess I thought you'd have a different reaction.

Ashley and I will see you at the masquerade party.

[sighs]

JENNINGS: I...

talked to my brother last night.

That's nice. How's he doing?

Not good.Hmm.

There was a power failure at the Azteca game last night.

Aw, that's a shame, but I'm sure they will bounce back.

I have to ask--

did you have anything to do with it?

And please be honest with me.

I did what I needed to do to show that I won't be trifled with.

So you caused a blackout?

What were you thinking?

I was thinking that I needed to protect my interests.

Okay, I need to tell you something, and you're not gonna be happy.

My family didn't drug Freddie. I did.

What? Why?Because I was worried

about the safety of everyone here.

And framing my family seemed like the only way

to make you realize the danger.

But I went too far.

Someone could have been hurt.

We're supposed to be a team, and you manipulated me.

We'regonna get hurt.

Your father is going to strike back

after what happened last night, you can count on that.

You started a war, Cristal.

Adam?Hmm?

Are you sure this is

a good idea?Course it is.

You're perfectly healthy and you look great.

You are ready to...

face the world.I don't mean leaving the hospital, dear.

I mean... the whole surprise revealed tonight.

Oh, you?

I thought you would have loved to be

the center of attention.Well, I...

oh, well, I... I do enjoy that.

I don't know,

I'm a bit nervous, is all.

I mean, what... what if I look too young?

What if it's too much? People might think

I'm vainer than usual.

I mean, what if they think I...

I fell into the fireplace just to get a new face?

Then I'll set them straight.

You look exactly like yourself.

Your best self.

Everyone's gonna go crazy for it. You'll see.

Yeah?There you are.

I've been trying to reach you.

Are you okay?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

Sorry, I-I just...

I've just been in it.

This network security is no joke.

I thought you could hack into anything.

I guess I'm a little rusty.

Mm-hmm.

Did you, uh...

did you stop by the house?Yeah.

And I made it down to the wine cellar,

but I only got through one pallet before Adam walked in.

Think he knows something, or...

I don't know.

But if he does, Blake will, too.

I think we need to act before Blake can.

If we go public, we've got enough for a headline.

In this climate, headlines should...

force Blake out, which is all I really care about.

Let's not be hasty.I don't want

to lose our window.

We haveto act before Blake can.

I already did.

You did what?

I went to the FBI.

What?!If Blake

is tangled up with the Flores family,

y-you think a resignation is gonna be enough?

They'll-they'll still have their hooks in the team.

If we're gonna get a clean slate,

we have to root them out, too, a-and we cannot do that alone.

You involved the FBI?

The same FBI that wants to send me to jail

for the Ada deal?

No, they're-they're trying to put Mike Jones in jail.

Michael Culhane...

but I also didn't think the Ada Stone connection through

before I went to the FBI.

Mm-hmm. That could have gone bad for me... real fast.

I-I promise, okay, I-I'm gonna keep your name out of it

when we take Blake down.

So, are-are we good?

Is something going on with you?

I'm fine, man, okay?

Just-just back off and-and enjoy your drink.

I've arranged this meeting

because both of you mean a lot to me.

Blake, I hope you can appreciate the effort

my dad made coming here.

Papa,

there was a time in my life when you meant the world to me.

Blake is my world now.

And it would destroy me if anything happens to him.

I thought he'd be taller.

[laughs]

It must be difficult

knowing that your own flesh and blood despises you.

Okay, stop, stop.

This fight, all of this is my fault.

If someone should pay the price, it's me, so, Papa,

if you're gonna kill someone, kill me.

Are you insane?

Do you see what you're doing to your daughter?

It's my job to protect you, honey,

and you can be damn sure that I'm gonna do that

even if it kills me.

Look, I don't want anything bad

to happen to you.

No matter what our history holds,

I'm still your father.

I love you, Cristal.

BLAKE: It looks like

we're all willing to put the past behind us where it belongs?

Looks like.

Then let's end this war

before we hurt someone we both love.

[sighs] Okay.

Let's see about getting you home.

Could I have the Carrington family?

And Liam.

I wanted to tell you all

that Mom has been released from the hospital.

Thank you for the update, but I'm not sure

you get the concept of the family meeting yet.

Plus, we are headed upstairs.Really?

Mm-hmm. No, no, no.

You're misunderstanding me.

What I mean is, she is here right now.

What's going on?Okay. Okay. Okay.

Mother, we are ready.

[sighs] She's always so dramatic.

♪

Mwah.

[sighs] Oh.

You ready?Yeah.

Mm.

You're with family here.

[sighs]

Oh.Wow.

Good Lord.

Well?

That's not Alexis.

That's...No. No, don't say it.

I think she's lost her mind.

And apparently, her face.ALEXIS: Adam, I...

No, no, it's-it's okay. It's okay.Uh...

Everyone, calm down.

This hasn't been easy on her.

Mother?

What have you done to yourself?

She's made herself Fallon.

That is some dark...Shut up!

[voice breaking]: Everyone just shut up!

[people murmuring]

I don't even know what to say. I...

I mean, I've been through some weird situations

with my mother before, but nothing like this.

I mean, this is...

Hey.

I'm sorry.

Can I get you anything?

Some, like, vodka or champagne?

I mean, someone in this house has to have painkillers on them.

Can you get me a new face for my mother?

[sighs]

I always knew she was a nutjob,

but this...

This is beyond anything I could have ever imagined.

Oh. [sniffles]

I've always liked my face.

On me!

Hey.

Hey.

Look at me.

It's a beautiful face.

Hey, look, I'd be weirded out

if my dad came home and looked completely different, but...

he'd still be my dad on the inside.

But Alexis isn't even that great on the inside.

And it's not just that she looks different.

It's that she looks like me.

I'm not defending her, but...

she's your mom, Fallon.

She almost died.

From what you told me,

she's been through a very traumatic experience, so...

maybe you should try talking to her.

Fine.

As long as you're here when I get back.

Well, this is very generous, Blake.

Hey, it's nothing.

We're in business together now.

You consider this your corporate jet.

And when you come to Mexico, you can use my yacht.

I look forward to that.

You know, I don't think I fully appreciated

how lucrative the gambling business could be.Last year,

the industry made more than the world's largest carmaker.

And that's just the legal profits.

Hopefully, we'll have a syndicate strong enough

to generate revenue worldwide.

Oh, I have many people in Mexico,

and connections all over Asia.

We just have to pay off the right people

to look the other way.

Well, I don't anticipate that being a problem.

I'll make some phone calls and keep you in the loop.

Wheels up in a few minutes.

Buen viaje.Gracias.

Hasta pronto.

Eh.

ANDERS: Great minds

drink alike.

May I join you for a nightcap?

Please do.

It's virgin.

Seeing bizarro Fallon totally killed my party drive.

Hmm. Well,

I was just relieved that it didn't kill me outright.

Hmm.It was a shock to the system, as they say.

I still don't know quite what to make of it.

But I do know that I owe you an apology.

I reacted poorly to this whole brand-new you idea.

You see, you have now officially said goodbye to Steven,

and while I understood your need to move forward,

I wasn't quite ready to do the same.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have been throwing this divorce in your face.

I...

I know how much you love Steven.

I do, but listening to you tonight,

I realized I have no choice but to move on for now.

Steven is getting the help he needs,

and I have people here I need to take care of.

You're family, as well.

Maybe I haven't made that clear enough.

[sighs] But...

emotional transparency is not my strong suit.

Preach.

JEFF: I, uh...

I finally got into one of Blake's files,

and I found... this.

[sniffs]This is just a list of names.

Who are these people?That I don't know yet.

But I was able to track where this e-mail was sent.

To this server in Mexico.

What are the odds this has something

to do with Silvio Flores?

If it does, it's something illegal.

Cristal told me that he fixes games all over the world.

We just need to figure out what this list is.

I can guarantee you,

it'll lead us to something good.

Yo, you hearing me?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah, sorry. I'm-I'm just...

I'm really, really tired.

But at least we have something

to work with now, right?

♪ Are you hearing about me?

♪ How you dealing without me?

♪ Hello

♪ Did you keep all the records? ♪

Well, I just don't get it.

I mean, I guess people only see what they want to see.

You can say that again.

I'm being serious, dear.

I know that it's different,

but, I mean, I think I look just like I did five years ago.

No, you look just like Idid five years ago.

Well, now you're just being mean to your mother, as usual.

Look, my initial reaction

to your face was not my finest moment, true.

But you have to understand that this is a bit of a shock.

Well, Fallon, I would never want to make you uncomfortable.

I'd rather die than hurt you,

but... I'm sure you'll get used to it.

Get used to it?

You're not doing anything about this?

You think life is a masquerade party? Well, it's not.

I know, but this is my face.

I can't just take it off like it's some mask.

[clears throat]

And I would appreciate it if you, of all people, would

try to embrace it.

Yeah.

That's not gonna happen.
