All language subtitles for Dynasty S04E20 You Vicious Miserable Liar Sub_Subtitles03.ENG

Previously on Dynasty... Your brain cells

are turning against
one another,

causing significant
cognitive disfunction.

Now I get why Fallon
gives me free rein

to schedule things
over your date nights.

Jeff and Michael are prominent
in the Black community.

You can't win
without them.

I've landed a gig somewhere
I really belong-- the hospital.

You should probably
watch your back.

This is a hit piece on the
hotel. They just betrayed me.

I think we need to
take a break, Fallon.

FALLON:
Oh, thank God!

I'm so happy you're...

Kirby.

Well, you don't seem that happy.

I thought you were Liam.

I didn't realize anybody
else chewed like that.

Well, did you come in here
to eat or just insult me?

I can't eat. When Liam said
he wanted to take a break

from our marriage,
I didn't realize

that meant not answering
my texts or calls.

Do you not understand
what a break means?

He has been radio silent
for days,

and I am honestly
starting to lose it.

Although he did leave his
organic goose down pillow here,

so at least I know
he's not gone for good.

Unless he bought a new one.

Do you think
he bought a new pillow?

I'm really not an expert
on Liam's pillow purchases,

but even if he did, a break
doesn't mean things are over.

Uh, for example,

Katy Perry
and Orlando Bloom took a break,

and now they're back
stronger than ever. Kabloom.

Maybe it just takes some time
apart to come back together.

What am I supposed to do
in the meantime? Learn to knit?

Here. Take this.

It'll get your mind
off things. Although,

I would stay away from page 33.

There's an article
about Blake's campaign,

and it's not
the best picture of you.

Thank you, Kirby.
You've been such a help.

Don't mention it.
Just make sure

to give that back to me.

ADAM:
Phase three testing

should be complete within
a few days, at which point

I will secure FDA approval
to bring the drug to market.

This is remarkable,
Dr. Carrington.

I mean, your test subjects
are showing a 93% success rate

in the restoration
of mitochondrial health.

"Remarkable" is an apt word,
Janice.

Plus,
there is incredible potential

for commercial success.

And more importantly,

the prestige from this type

of development
is gonna put the hospital

on the map as a cutting-edge
research facility.

We couldn't agree
with you more.

Congratulations,
Dr. Carrington.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

WOMAN [over P.A.]:
Dr. Robertson, 425.

I'm sorry.
Am I interrupting?

Uh, thankfully, the
meeting just ended,

but yes, you are interrupting
my day. Bye, now.

Amanda, what a nice surprise.

Oh. Well, I just wanted to say
"hello" before I got started.

Wonderful idea.

And I hope you have a great
first day as the hospital's

- newest legal counsel.
- Oh.

We are so happy to have another

talented Carrington
- join the team.
- So, so happy.

Uh, thank you for giving
my sister such a nice,

warm welcome, Janice.

- You're incredibly sweet.
- Oh, thank you.

Incredibly sweet.[laughs]

But you're not.

I didn't think
you were serious

about getting a job
with the hospital.

I thought that
was your dry,

unfunny British
sense of humor.

[laughs]
Well, I told you.

The hospital's just a much
better fit for me than aviation.

Oh. So you used nepotism
to get a job here?

I guess we're more alike
than I thought.

Look, the truth is I...
I do actually want

to get to know my family
here in Atlanta.

Maybe we could do, like,
a daily lunch in the café?

Really? Well...

See now that...
was my dry sense of humor.

I'm only gonna warn you once.

You are just a lawyer.
I'm chief of staff.

So, stay out of my way.

Okay, well, it's my job
to protect the hospital.

So you feel free to call me

when you're inevitably sued
for malpractice.

Just put me on speed dial.

Bye now.

JEFF:
I swear to God,

Dominique is gonna
drive me insane.

And this is new information?

She's not answering my calls,

because she's run away somewhere
with her husband.

Hold on.
Dom got married?

Yeah, I just found out.
14 years ago

to some guy named "Brady."

And never officially
got divorced.

But don't tell anyone.

I don't think Brady knows
they're still married.

Don't worry.
I can barely follow all that.

So, a few other companies
are apparently ramping up

- for manned missions to Mars.
- Mars? Really?

Yeah, and I'm concerned.

I can't be another Buzz Aldrin.

What is wrong with Buzz Aldrin?

That man is a national hero.

Yeah, for being the second guy
on the moon.

I'm not gonna be second
in anything.

Yeah, you seem a little amped.

I'm fine. I was having trouble
focusing a few weeks ago,

but I'm back on track now.

So, where are we at with Blake
and the oil rig legislation?

Once he's elected, I want to
be able to start immediately.

Okay. I'm on my way
to see him now.

- I'll get an update.
- Good.

You focus on Blake, I'll focus
on getting more funding

- for Colby Co. Space.
- More funding?

Do you have any idea how much
it costs to get to Mars?

- Um... no.
- Yeah.

Neither do I, but I know it's
more than I got in my wallet.

Well, then, it's a hell of a
lot more than I got in mine.

Thanks.

Have you seen Sam?

He's been MIA since
that hotel article came out.

I'm worried we went too far.

Sam's a big boy.

He knows it's
nothing personal.

Look, what's more important--

losing a few hotel bookings,

or having a Senate campaign
destroyed?

That depends on who you ask.

Well, I'm asking you,
so I think I know the answer.

[knocking]

Ah, Michael,
come on in.

The farmers' union super PAC
pulled their support

from my campaign,
so I need your help.

I don't know any farmers.

Well, you don't need to.

I just convinced
Yang Industries

to sponsor a new athletic
center at Decatur High, which is

where the head
of the teachers' union works,

and where Michael Culhane
went to high school.

And if we can get
the teachers' union on board...

Their financial support
would more

than make up for the farmers.

So you're bribing them

with a new athletic center?

No. It's just called

"corporate sponsorship."

I'm just helping
broker the deal.

Um, sounds like
you don't need me.

I need you to vouch for me
with the principal, who happens

to be your old
English teacher.

And the proposal will
sound better coming

from a star alumnus
than from a...

A greedy billionaire?

Or the person responsible

for poisoning
Clarke County's water supply?

Yeah, I'm not comfortable
with this.

Hey, if you want comfort,
go get a massage.

You want to help your community,
Jeff wants his rockets,

and I want my airfield,
this is how we do it.

So if you want to back
out on the deal,

you better let me know.

Fine. I'll make the call.

But I don't think it'll make
one bit of difference to anyone.

Well, then it shouldn't be
a problem for you.

Why aren't you at work?

Everything at La Mirage
is falling apart.

Room bookings are down,
conferences are canceled,

parties are slowing.[phone ringing]

And reporters are calling me
nonstop.

All because of what the
Carringtons put in the press

linking me to Leo,
the Mafia and a cursed hotel.

[phone ringing]

Oh, I mean, they're acting

like La Mirage is the hotel
in The Shining.

Oh, I love that movie.
So scary.

Not the point. Got it.

Kirby, I need
to thank you.

This magazine just
gave me the solution

to my marriage
- problems.
- That magazine?

Mm-hmm. I realized
I need to do exactly

what Katy and Orlando apparently
did to recapture their magic.

- Counseling?
- Not just any counseling.

I made an appointment
with the marriage mediator

they supposedly used,
a woman who specializes

in Hollywood relationships.

That entire story sounds fake,

and last time I checked, you're
not in a Hollywood relationship.

Atlanta is basically
Hollywood East,

ergo, I'm basically a celebrity.

The point is, she's used
to dealing with power couples,

so I am on my way to L.A.
to go meet with her.

That's a great idea.
What time do we leave?

We?

I need to get away
from this PR mess,

so I'm coming with you.

Hey, I need
to get away, too.

Okay, fine, fine. Meet me
at the jet in two hours.

I have to stop by the office
first, and then it's time

to give my marriage
the perfect Hollywood ending.

Ooh, but not the ending
from The Shining, right?

It was really scary.

Thank you again, Kirby.
So, so helpful.

No dessert for you on the plane.

♪

Finally.

I was having the best round
of my life.

I figured
whatever it was could wait

until I birdied
the last hole.

Plus, I don't
actually work for you.

No, but you are here
to advise me.

That was the point
of you staying on

as a stockholder, remember?

Here I am, happy to be of
service in any way possible.

Easy now. I need you,
a fellow CEO,

to hold down the fort
while I am out of town

dealing with
some personal matters.

Do you also want me to advise
you on these personal matters?

Because I know that's CEO code
for trouble at home.

You're not wrong.

But I'm going to L.A.
to fix those issues.

And didn't you just
get divorced?

Fair enough.
Yeah, this is one area

you shouldn't put me
on a pedestal.

- Never have, but thank you.
- You're welcome.

Don't worry.
This company's safe with me.

Don't be surprised
if the stock doubles

by the time you get back.

It's two days. Don't go crazy.

Hey, Eva?

I have business in Los Angeles
for a day or two.

I am not to be disturbed,
and Colin is in charge

- until I get back.
- Of course. Have a great trip.

COLIN:
Eva?

Could I get some
tea, please?

Certainly.

You want to go to space?

Mars, specifically.

But... why?

Between climate change,
rising ocean levels,

and overpopulation,
we are decimating this planet.

But with the help of my team,

I've come up with a viable plan
for colonizing Mars.

Wow. That's...
ambitious.

Yeah, which is why I need
to step up production.

But speed comes at a cost,

and I heard you've come into
some family money recently.

You're a healer,
so I was wondering

if you might want
to help me save the planet?

Ah. I'm not sure

physical therapy is the
same as going to Mars.

Plus, I just got control
of my family business.

I'm not looking to
make any big changes.

I'm sorry.
I understand.

Just wanted to ask.

Oh.

- Are you okay?
- Mm.

I've been getting
these headaches recently.

You might want to
get checked out.

Not that they're
contagious, but

I did just have
a brain tumor.

I'm fine, okay?

Thanks for seeing me.

Of course. And I know
you'll find a way.

I always do.

No, no, no. None of
these are good enough.

That last estate was worth
over $20 million.

Yeah, but the Carrington
Manor is worth a lot more.

I need something
bigger and better.

Perhaps if I stop by the manor,

I can get a better sense
of what you're looking for.

That's not gonna happen.

I'd really rather
they didn't know

I was looking for a home
of my own right now.

Janice, nice
to see you again.

Twice in one day.

Talk to you later?

Dr. Carrington, I'm afraid
I come with bad news.

Your anti-aging drug trial
has been shut down.

By the FDA? Why? W-When?

Not the FDA.

It was the board,
on advice of counsel.

Turns out the hospital's
liability insurance limit

is too low to cover this kind
of private research.

So we buy more insurance.

Am I the only one who can think
outside of the box here?

You-you called it
"remarkable" this morning.

I know.

But the legal department
did a secondary review,

and thought the risks
outweighed the benefits.

The legal department did
a secondary review, huh?

All right, well, it looks like

I need to do a review
of the legal department.

I would like
to thank Mr. Carrington

for helping broker this deal

for a new athletic center
here at Decatur High.

It will have a major impact on
the school and the community.

[applause]

BLAKE:
Thank you.

You know, the whole point

of running for Senate is

to improve the lives
of my constituents.

Well, why wait
for the Senate seat

if I could help someone today?

[applause]

And another thank-you
goes to Michael Culhane,

our own high school hero who
was so kind to introduce me

- to Mr. Carrington.
- Come on.

[applause]

Uh, thanks,
Principal Stanley.

I'm happy I could help.

What about the poisoning
of the water supply

in Clarke County
by Carrington Atlantic?

How do we know something
like that won't happen here?

It was never proven
that we poisoned any water,

and it was a long time ago.
Now...

I was talking to Mr. Culhane.

How are you
okay with this?

Didn't your father die because
of what Carrington Atlantic did?

Well, I don't think
I should comment on that.

This is not the right place,

and Mr. Carrington

can speak for himself.

Nice answer. Are you sure you're
not the one running for office?

[laughter]
Thank you all for coming out.

[reporters shouting]

Let's get out of here.

♪ California palms...

FALLON:
Remind me why

we're staying here and not
my favorite Beverly Hills hotel?

My friend
who owns the place insisted

we stay here
in the best suite.

Is that a problem?

Not for me. [gasps]

Is that Timothée Chalamet?

Wait. Is it "Shalamett"
- or "Shalamay"?
- Um, I don't know.

Is it "Timothy"
- or "Timothay"?
- I don't know.

Okay. I can't with
the two of you.

I am going up to
the room to unpack

and center myself before
my appointment tomorrow.

Okay. Bye.

What should we do first? Should
we go to the beach or the pool?

I mean, it's a vacation. I don't
want to spend the whole time

- in the lobby.
- Sam!

Nancy! Ah![laughs]

Thank you so much
for letting us stay here.

Nancy and I met at a hotelier
conference last year.

And we were both drunk
the whole time.

He is not lying.

I'm so glad you called.

Really, it is
perfect timing.

I think I'm finally ready to
try something new in life,

and there is no one I'd rather
sell my baby to than you.

Wait. You're buying a baby?!

The hotel is my baby.

And it would be
- perfect for Sam.
- Thank you.

Have a wonderful time.

Reach out if you need
anything at all.

- Okay, Mama.
- All right.

Thank you.

- Mm, have fun.
- See you!

You're buying
this hotel?

Thinking about it.

I was gonna tell you, I
promise, so don't get mad.

Mad? This is so exciting!

I've always wanted
to have a weekend hideaway.

How soon is this happening?

Why don't we talk
about this later?

Let's have fun!
We're in L.A., right?

Like you said,
it's a vacation.

BLAKE:
Was our arrangement unclear?

You were supposed to convince
people to trust me, not act

like... Like you killed my father?

[laughing]:
I am not gonna
relitigate the past.

We had an agreement.

You were supposed
to make me look like a good guy,

not this "no comment" crap.

Hold on. I was supposed to
support you, not lie for you.

You're definitely not
the good guy here.

Well, at least
I'm not a hypocrite.

You know what?
[clears throat]

Since everyone's going back
on their word,

I'm scrapping
the athletic center.

You cannot do that.

You already promised
the school your support.

Oh, like you promised me yours?

Driver, pull over.

I'm gonna walk.

Before this guy stabs me
in the back again.

[seagull caws]
What a morning.

Did you see that view?

I know. It's amazing.
When you buy this hotel,

we can stay in this room
every time we come visit.

So, what do you want
to do first?

Shopping on Rodeo Drive?

Or maybe catch an episode
of The Price Is Right?

- You're being weird.
- No, I'm not.

Nothing weird here. Everyone
loves The Price Is Right.

[sighs]
Fine.

I don't know if I'm buying
this place or not, but if I do,

it wouldn't be
to just come visit.

What do you mean?

Well, I've been toying

with the idea
of buying a property

on the West Coast and expanding
my brand for a while.

And it seems like a particularly
good time to get out of Atlanta.

You were going to move here?
And you didn't tell me?

When were you gonna
say something?

- Well, maybe after Plinko?
- Sam!

Well, Kirby, I didn't tell you
because I didn't want you

to try to talk
me out of it.

This could be the perfect
solution to my problems at home.

I could let Culhane manage
La Mirage,

and I would come out here.

You wouldn't be happy in L.A.

Everything is so fake.

Oh, please. I'm all about fake,
and I'm loving this hotel.

The spa looks insane.

Should we hit it up and then
maybe go to Madame Tussauds?

I don't want to go
to the spa with you,

or to see creepy wax people.

Kirby, I haven't even made up
my mind yet. You can't get mad.

Yes, I can, but I will
put it on hold until after

-The Price Is Right.
- Fine.

I'll see you in the
lobby after my massage.

Just come on down!

Hi.[seagulls squawking,
waves crashing]

I'm Fallon Carrington.
Am I in the right place?

I guess we'll find out
once we start.

Have a seat. I'm Anya.

Hi. Uh, so,

I am here to fix things
with my husband

and to get my marriage
back on track.

But I need your help
to make that happen.

I see.

[birds singing]

[wind chime tinkles]

What? What?
Is there something on my face?

Hold this.

Are you kidding me?

Is this some kind
of gimmick?

Because I did not fly 3,000
miles to hold Bugs Bunny.

Or to see some
L.A. con woman.

You can come inside
and see my degrees later.

You're too stressed
and self-involved

to appreciate them right now.

Mm. Great deduction.

And sarcastic, I see.

The reason that you're holding
the bunny is because

pet therapy--
even with fake animals--

has been proven
to lower blood pressure

by activating the
parasympathetic nervous system

and releasing
calming endorphins.

Yeah, I'm not getting
any of that.

Mm, doesn't work
if you're strangling the animal.

Okay. Are these diplomas
of yours from the L.A. Zoo?

I have a masters
in marriage counseling from UCLA

and a doctorate in clinical
psychology from Stanford.

Okay, fine.
You're qualified. Now what?

Takes a certain kind of person

to come alone
to marriage mediation.

I'm guessing
you like to be in control?

Solving problems
on your own?

Anyone could have guessed that.

My job is to read people,
which is why you need to bring

your husband with you.

Well, how am I supposed to bring
him if he won't even talk to me?

Okay, okay, okay,
I will figure it out. Anything

to get you to stop
staring at me.

Although, you know,
I am starting to wonder

if you really did see
Katy and Orlando.

I can neither confirm
nor deny that.

But I'm looking forward
to working with you both.

My bunny, please.[scoffs]

Oh. [clears throat]

Here you go.

It's a pleasure doing business
with you. [laughs]

[sighs]

Did you just give away
Colby Co.'s first gold record?

I'm not giving anything away.
I sold it,

along with the entire
Colby Co. music catalog.

That division is worth a small
fortune, which he just paid.

So you rented out the lounge to
have a fire sale of your assets?

Okay, a fire sale makes me
sound desperate. This is a plan.

Those parts
of Colby Co. are history.

Right, your history.

This is your
life's work.

It was my life's work.

But I have a new goal now,
and I realized

I don't have to go begging
for money for Colby Co. Space.

I can invest in myself.

And what if it doesn't work,

and you lose everything?

That's why it's called betting
on yourself. It's a risk.

I've come to apologize.

I shouldn't have sabotaged you
at Primetime Air.

But at least you ended up
with a better job.

Maybe you should even
be thanking me.

Is this what counts
as an apology around here?

Yeah, it is
when you add cookies.

Mm. Okay, well, I am a sucker
for a sweet treat. Fine.

I accept your sad apology,

and I most certainly
accept the cookies.

Fantastic. So now we can talk

about what's best
for the hospital.

I would really appreciate it
if you would consider

reinstating my trial
as soon as possible.

Oh, um, no.
I accepted your apology.

I just...
I haven't changed my mind.

I'm acting in the best
interest of the hospital,

and it's not personal.

Your trial's a liability.

Oh, please. You're just trying
to make a fool of me.

I don't think
you need any help doing that.

You know, when I take this

to another hospital
and make billions,

the board is not
gonna be happy

that you...
you tanked it

because of some sibling rivalry.

Or perhaps even finding a
hospital and new lab assistants

and cutting-edge equipment--
I mean, that could take months.

Plus, you might not even get
an approval at a new hospital,

you know,
- now you've been shut down here.
- Wow.

I'm starting to understand why

my mother literally
gave you away.

Liam, please call me back.

I really want to fix us.

I just can't do it without you.

Literally. I'm not allowed.

Please?

I miss you.

[sighs]

[phone ringing]

Fallon Carrington's office.

FALLON:
Hey, Eva, it's me.

By any chance, has Liam called

or come by the office,
looking for me?

No, I haven't heard from him.

Is something wrong
in Los Angeles?

No, no.

I mean, yes,
but nothing work-related.

I-I'm sorry,
I don't mean to pry.

I just know sometimes it helps
to get it all off your chest.

Look, I didn't come
to L.A. for business, okay?

I came to see a marriage

mediator, but I really need Liam
to do this with me,

and I can't get ahold of him,
which is why I called you.

Although this is not something
I want shared.

I am so sorry to hear that.

And my lips are sealed.

I can camp out here, you know,
to make sure I don't miss him

if he calls or stops by.

And if he does,
I will let you know right away.

That would be great.
Thank you, Eva.

Of course.

Hey, Liam, it's Eva.

I remembered how you mentioned

that Brian Rosenthal was one
of your idols.

I mean, who doesn't have

a Pulitzer Prize-winning idol,
right?

Anyway, I just scored
two tickets to see him speak.

Figured you might want to go.

Anyway, shoot me a text
if you're interested.

[gasps]

Don't you run away
from me, Sammy Jo.

- We need to talk.
- Okay, okay.

I see what you're doing here,

but you can't tag team me
into not buying this hotel.

I haven't decided yet.

Wait. You're buying this hotel?
Fine, whatever.

Buy the Hollywood Bowl
for all I care.

And he's gonna
move here.

One problem at a time.

My marriage takes precedence.

- Give me your phone.
- What? Why?

Because Anya needs Liam
with me to mediate.

And he's screening my calls, so
I'm gonna call from your phone.

I have called Liam
maybe twice in my life,

and both times,
I was looking for you.

He's gonna know
it's you calling.

- Well, maybe not.
- Trust me.

He won't take any chances.
I know how he thinks.

Fine. You're right.
He's not gonna answer.

Okay. Does this mean we can
talk about the Sam issue now?

Oh, my God.

Not just yet.

[kettle whistling]

Just the person
I was looking for.

Would you like
a cup of tea?

No, thank you. I've had
enough British bitterness

for one day.

Father's latest surprise child
is using the hospital

to play out a petty
sibling rivalry.

- Amanda?
- Mm-hmm.

She seems so
level-headed.

Her head is anything but level.

She's vindictive, and she's
shut down my clinical trial,

which is why I need your help.

Well, I'm not sure she'd
listen to reason from me.

I'm her surprise
stepmother.

Plus, I've got my
hands full with Beto

and my own sibling rivalry.

Yeah, I'm-I'm not asking you to
get involved as our stepmother.

I'm asking you
to get involved

as the head of the
Carrington Foundation.

Well, I'd like to help,
but it doesn't feel right

to step in and use
the foundation as leverage.

I understand.

You know, I just thought,
you know, I saved your life,

and maybe you'd be willing

to do something a
little extra to help me.

But... guess I was wrong.

Adam, wait.

When I told you
I know how Liam thinks,

I didn't mean I wanted to
play him in a live performance.

Would you relax?
It's gonna be fine.

She doesn't even know
what Liam looks like,

and I'll do most of
the talking anyway.

Oh. There she is.

I'm so glad you were able
to get your husband to come.

You must be Liam.

Yes, this is Liam.

Yes, I am Liam.

So let's just jump right in.
What do you say? Yeah?

Okay, so, Liam, my husband,

has a problem with the amount
of time I devote to work.

But he wouldn't love me
if I was someone different.

So we're a
little stuck.

Thanks for setting
the scene, Fallon.

Hmm.

What is she doing?

It's her thing. Just wait.

I'm having trouble
reading you, Liam.

Oh. [laughs]

Why did you want
to take a break?

Oh, um, well, I, uh...

I felt like I needed some space

to sort out my thoughts
and to, um...

And to write.

Yeah, to do some writing,
because

- I am a writer.
- He's a writer.

Mm. Very often,
the male energy feels

like it needs
to solve the problem,

and when it can't,
- it runs away.
- Ooh!

Ooh, ooh! That's good.

He is the one running away.
I love that.

- What else?
- Fallon, a moment.

Liam, can you give me
any specific examples

of when you felt
there was a problem with Fallon

you couldn't solve?

Yes, definitely. Plenty.

Okay, I think
"plenty" is a strong word.

Um, just recently,

she didn't show up
to an awards show

where I was nominated and won.

Uh... Thank you very much.
And even before that,

she had a really bad reaction

when I thought
I had a kid,

who ended up being my dad's,

not mine.

And she totally hates my mother.

Okay, Liam, darling,
I don't think Anya needs

to hear about your parents.
You don't care about that.

Actually, most current-day
problems are seeds planted

in childhood
which blossom in adulthood.

You know, I would love
to get your take

on one
of my current-day problems.

No. Absolutely not.

Fallon, let Liam speak.

You'll have your turn.

Start at the beginning.

I was born in Venezuela.

Principal Stanley.

I'd offer you a drink,
but that seems weird.

I don't need a drink.

Do you know that the
athletic center isn't happening?

I do, and I'm sorry.

I should have never put you
in that position.

Working with someone
like Blake can be toxic.

I don't blame Blake.
I blame you.

- Me?
- This school was on
the bubble for closure,

but the athletic center was
going to bring an influx

of cash and excitement.

Without it, the school closes,

people lose jobs, and
kids are bused all over.

Okay, but you don't understand.

Blake Carrington is... I understand sometimes

you work with people
that you don't like

in order to get what you need.

That's what I was doing.

I thought
that's what you were doing.

Actually, I thought I was
standing up for my principles.

You can't live on principles.

Said the principal.

Can I hold
the bunny now?

I think Liam has
made his point.

Your husband's trying
to tell you something.

I think my husband
should be focusing

on my husband's issues.

Please.
I have the bunny, honey.

So, anyway, I...
I thought

I was running from my business
problems by coming here,

but I think I was running away
from Blake and Cristal.

You know,
I-I see them as family,

but I worry
they don't see me the same way.

In-laws can be tricky.

This was
a wonderful breakthrough.

Yes, a wonderful
breakthrough.

Okay, it's my
turn now.

I am so sorry,
but we've run out of time.

I think this has been
a very successful session.

It really has been.

Thank you so much, Anya.

Thank you.

[Anya clears throat]

What now?

I feel like
I need to tell you this,

as a doctor,
and because I think

that you would
want to know.

Your husband is pretending to be

someone he isn't.

- He's gay.
- Oh, that?

I know you like
to solve problems on your own,

but sometimes, you can't
solve the problem at all.

Sometimes the other person just
needs to find their own path,

and you just need
to give them the space to do so.

You know what?
You keep the bunny.

You could use
the endorphins.

The fate of your marriage is
in Liam's hands now.

Are you still
giving me the silent treatment?

I thought that was just
for the plane ride.

I will pay you back
for hijacking your therapy lady.

I'm not
not talking to you.

I'm just processing
what Anya said,

and now I realize
what I need to do.

Which is?

Nothing.

No more calling or texting Liam.

Anya was right.

This is a problem I can't solve.

The therapy bunny is
in Liam's court now.

I think I have
a plan, too.

Which, I'm assuming,
doesn't involve

buying the hotel in L.A.?No.

I can't believe
I almost bought a hotel

just to avoid a confrontation
with Blake and Cristal.

Which can probably wait
till morning.

Do you want me to come with you?

No, but I was touched

you were thinking
of moving to L.A. with me.

I never said that.

It was implied.

Hmm.

[footsteps approaching]

I assume you're
here to apologize?

No. I came to follow through
on our agreement.

I spoke to the heads
of the teachers' union,

and they agree
to support you,

contingent upon
reinstating the deal

for the new athletic center.

How'd you get them
- to trust me?
- I didn't, and they don't.

They trust me, and agreed
that a deal with you was better

- than no deal at all.
- See?

That wasn't so hard.

We can all get
what we want.

This PAC money will last me

Yes, uh, me,
too. I mean,

the reason I wanted
to stay in Atlanta was

to get to know my new family,

and you are
a part of that.

Agreed. And congratulations
on the new job.

- Mm.
- But speaking of family,

I was wondering
if you might take another look

at Adam's drug trial?

He mentioned something about

the legal department
giving him some trouble?

That's correct.
Upon secondary review, we found

that the hospital's insurance
limits were just too low

for that kind
of private research.

Well, it seems like
there's an easy solution

to protect the hospital

and allow Adam's trial
to move forward--

buy more insurance.

Well, that wasn't the legal
department's recommendation.

Or mine.

I understand
doing what you feel is right,

which is why I'm prepared

to put the full weight
of the Carrington Foundation

behind him.
If his trial

is not reinstated,
we'll be forced

to pull all
of our hospital funding.

I'm quickly learning
that a lunch

with a Carrington
is never just a lunch.

Do you think the hospital
can afford to lose Adam's trial

and the five
Carrington Foundation trials?

It won't be a good look
for your first week.

You're just like him,
aren't you?

Not at all.

But I owe him.

You know, perhaps
I've overstepped.

I will change my recommendation
about the insurance,

and Adam's project will be able
to move forward.

Perfect.

Well, I should get going.

But this was lovely.

Yes. Uh, we should
do it again soon.

[line ringing]

Hi. Can you have all

of the Carrington Foundation
research files

on my desk when I return?

And don't let anyone see you.

Thank you.

Do you consider me a part
of this family or not?

- Come on in.
- Where have you been?

Not important.
Wait. Why? Do I look tan?

Never mind. Look, I know I'm not
married to Steven anymore,

but I have always done
what's best for this family.

- We know that.
- Yeah, so when

you leaked that story
to the press

about me and Leo and the hotel,
it hurt me,

and it also made me wonder.

So, if you don't see me
as part of this family,

I want to know now.

Of course we think
of you as family.

I'm so sorry.

Haven't you learned,
that's how the Carringtons

treat each other?

Uh, but I am sorry

I didn't give you a heads-up
about the plan.

That's my bad.

- Your bad?
- Mm-hmm.

Really?

- That's all?
- How about

I take you on a wine tasting
in Dahlonega?

And we can put
this whole thing behind us.

Cristal, hold on.

"My bad" and a wine tasting
aren't going

to undo all the damage
you did to my hotel brand.

Those are just words and wine.

This did not go
the way Anya said it would.

Jeanette?

Hey, Jeanette,
can you come here?

Yes, Ms. Carrington?

Have you seen Liam's
organic goose down pillow?

It was right here on the bed

before I left for L.A.,
and now it's not here.

I'm sorry, Ms. Carrington.
I haven't seen it.

Maybe Mr. Ridley took it
when he stopped by?

Liam stopped by? He was here?

Just for a minute.

I can ask the others
if they've seen the pillow.

No. No. There's no need
to look for it.

It's gone.

[knocking]

I'm happy to report that
you are one step closer

- to having a launch date.
- How so?

Well, I got Blake the
campaign financing he needed.

I can't believe I'm
actually helping him, but

if it means getting what we want
when he's senator,

then so be it.

Are you listening to
a word that I'm saying?

Huh? Yeah. Yeah. Sorry.

It's just hard
to focus on anything else

when I know there's a spy
watching everything I do.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking
about corporate espionage.

I heard
an unconfirmed rumor

that Elon Musk has designs

for a Space Hotel
that sounds like mine.

That can't be
a coincidence.

And I know
who's tipping him off--

Brady Lloyd.

You think
Dom's husband is a spy?

None of this was happening
- until he showed up.
- Jeff,

Elon Musk has been
in the space race for years,

and I'm sure any design
similarities are a coincidence,

if they exist.[scoffs]

You sound a little paranoid.

Yeah, well,
you know what they say.

Just 'cause you're paranoid
doesn't mean you're wrong.

Look, I'm sorry,
but I got to ask.

Are you still taking your
neurotoxicity medication?

Come on, man. Of course.

Hey, you want
- to check the bottle?
- No.

Look, I'm sorry.

I just want to make sure
you're okay.

Yeah, I'm fine, okay?

I've never felt better.

I just need to get back to work.

Okay, cool.

I'll get out of here.

- And you're all set.
- Great.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

What are you two
doing here?

We set up

an interview
with the Atlanta Mirror.

We're meeting
- a reporter here.
- Why?

So you can finish
trashing my hotel?

No, no. Quite the opposite.

I'm-I'm here
to show my faith in your hotel.

I'd like to have my final
campaign gala here if you agree.

Really?

You would do that?

I-I mean, yes, yes,
of course I agree.

And the new club

should be ready in
one or two weeks.

It's perfect timing.

Mr. Carrington,
you ready to do this interview?

I got to say,
I'm a little surprised

you wanted to meet
at your ex-son-in-law's hotel,

especially after all the bad press.

Sam Jones is not
my ex-anything.

He's family.

And there are
some things

I want to correct for
the record, so let's sit.

Well, you were right.
Words can only go so far.

So I realized we needed
to do something meaningful.

That apology was genuine.

And so is my forgiveness.

But I still want to go
on that wine tour

so don't forget about that.

Speaking of which,
let's go have some wine.

How was Los Angeles?
Did it all work out?

Uh, not quite.

I'm giving Liam
some space

to figure things out, but
who knows how long that'll take.

Well, I'm sure
everything will be fine.

Oh, and, uh,
here are some messages

from when you were gone,
and Ezra Feldman called.

- Ezra Feldman?
- Mm-hmm.

Well, he's an A-list divorce
attorney here in Atlanta.

Why did he call?

I'm not sure.
He didn't say much.

He was asking
if you had a lawyer

that he could reach out to,
but I told him you didn't,

and you weren't available.

Oh, my God.

Liam must have hired him.

I can't believe this.

I-I hate to say this, but...

maybe you should get
your own attorney.

I just don't want
to see you get hurt.

Thank you, Eva, but right now,
I'd just like to be alone, okay?

This is the one.

It's a beautiful piece
of property, Dr. Carrington.

[sighs]
Now that things are
back on track,

I should be able to make
an offer in the next week.

I am so glad I was able

to assist you
in finding a new home.

A new home... for a new dynasty.

AMANDA:
Dr. Larson,

thank you so
much for coming.

I'm not sure why I'm here after
the way your brother treated me.

Believe me, my brother and I
frequently disagree

about how things should be done.

So how can I help you?
I can't really stay for long.

Well, as part of the hospital's
legal team, it's important

that I understand all of the
research that we're conducting.

I was told that the
Carrington Foundation

had five trials in operation,

but then, when I checked
the files myself,

I could only see four.

Yours was the trial
that was shut down?

That's right. I was researching
a new Alzheimer's drug

when... I was fired.

Well, I just found that strange,

because you seemed to be
making so much progress.

I was. I tried
to tell Dr. Carrington

that these things take time,

and the initial results
were promising,

but he wouldn't hear it.

Well, I had another scientist
take a look at your research.

She found an
interesting side effect.

What side effect?

An anti-aging side effect.

Which I find curious,

because Dr. Carrington is currently

fast-tracking
an anti-aging drug.

Perhaps I can stay after all.

Great.

Well, hello, beautiful.

You're in a good mood.

And why shouldn't I be?
Everything's coming up roses.

Mm. Unfortunately,
roses do have thorns.

What are you talking about?

When you mentioned the farmers
were pulling their support,

an alarm went off in my head,
so I did some digging.

It turns out, the union heads
got a visit from my brother.

Beto?

He used my family's name

and threatened to disrupt
the import-export chain

between the farmers
and their Mexican distributors

unless they dropped
their support for you.

Well, why would he do that?

He's targeting you
in order to get to me

and the money he wants.

Well, we need to figure out
how to handle this.

I will not let him
derail my campaign.

I know...

and I know how to handle him.

[door opens, closes]

Hello?

Oh, hi. Sorry. I-I didn't
realize anyone was here.

Why are you working so late?

Just avoiding the tragedy
that is my marriage. That's all.

Why are you here?

Eva asked me to drop off
some files on her desk.

Plus, it's not like
I have anybody

waiting at home for me, either.[laughs]

Misery loves company.
Would you like a drink?

Happily.

Do you want
- to talk about it?
- Nope.

[drink pouring]

I think Liam wants a divorce.

I contemplated
calling him,

even though I said I wouldn't,
but then I realized,

it wouldn't matter 'cause he's
not answering my calls anyway.

My wife did the same thing.

And while I did act poorly,

it really hurt
when she shut me out.

For the first time in my life,

I have no idea what to do.

Powerlessness is not a pleasant
feeling for people like us.

No.

I don't like the way
any of this feels.

I'm so sorry.

I know how terrible this is.

Wish I could do something
to make it better.

Thank you for being here for me.

Of course.
Enjoyed my time in charge.

That's not what I meant.

[breathing heavily]
