Dynasty s04e21 Episode Script
The Voice (2)
[KNOCKING.]
Come in.
Good afternoon, Carrington.
And an important afternoon for us both.
Though one would hardly know from the frown on your face.
Smile, my friend, smile.
At least for the television cameras.
, That shouldn't be too difficult l shouldn't think, with a woman as beautiful as Miss Kendall at your side.
lf you don't mind, Ahmed, l'm iust going over my notes for this press statement.
lf you are tying to avoid a conversation with me, that is a vey poor excuse.
There is not a word there that you have not studied to the core by now.
Besides, the subject of beautiful women is not exactly anathema to you.
The last time we made a deal, you had the ravishing Alexis at your side.
ln Italy, remember? And recently l saw a photo, of your most recent wedding? Fabulous-looking blond.
You have exceedingly good taste in wives, Carrington.
Look, you are in this hotel room for one reason and one reason only, to make a statement to the press.
Now, let's keep it that way, damn it.
[KNOCKING.]
Mr.
Carrington, the television crew's outside.
Are you ready? l'm iust about as ready as l'll ever be.
At least to get this part over with, anyway.
Gentlemen, this is Mr.
Chu.
[PHONE RINGING.]
Hello? BLAKE: Hello, darlíng.
- Díd l wake you? - That's all right.
l'm sorry.
l know you need all the rest you can get.
The baby and l slept beautifully.
We're healthy and happy.
That makes three of us then, because l'm elated.
l had to share the good news with the lady l happen to be desperately in love with.
The deals all set, all sígned.
l announced ít at a press conference on TV.
Which, incidentally, should be on the morning news in Denver.
Well, then l'll watch the 8, 9, and 10:OO programmes.
What time is it there in Hong Kong? lt's time to grab a late dinner after all the commotion.
No, no.
l'm taking Tracy as a reward for all her good work.
She did a wonderful iob handling that press conference.
Well the photo coverage! she arranged when you were made party chairman is terrific.
lt was a great idea introducing you to Eric Grayson.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Oh, hold on a minute, darling.
Come in.
These just arrived, sir.
l don't believe it.
Remember my telling you about some lost luggage? Mine and Tracy's? Well, it just arrived.
Yes.
Just in time to fly back with us tomorrow morning.
Hold on.
Put it over there, please.
And here you are.
- Did Miss Kendall's bag come too? - Yes, sir, l left it with her.
- Thank you, Mr.
Carrington.
- Thank you.
Mm-hm.
Yes, yes, we're booked on the 8:OO flight tomorrow morning.
l'll be seeíng you soon.
And l love you vey, vey much.
l love you too, darling.
Bye, darling.
Bye.
Eric Grayson.
l'll be damned.
Mr.
Carrington? Just a minute, please.
Yes, Tracy? l guess you could call it musical bags.
- Yours was left in my room by mistake.
- Oh.
Well, our exchange.
More than fair, crucial.
Now l have a hair dyer, my favourite lipstick.
You won't be ashamed of me at dinner.
l hope you didn't open this by mistake.
l am a terrible packer.
lt's a mess.
What time are our dinner reservations? Thirty minutes.
Fine.
l will be ready in 20.
[GUNFIRE & INDIANS SHOUTING oN Tv.]
Morning, Alexis.
Not so loud, please, Mark, l have a terrible headache.
l stayed far too long at the Harrison's party last night.
Drank too much champagne, much too much brandy.
Pour me some coffee, will you? Vey black.
Sure.
Mind if l turn on that sports channel? Should be coming on soon.
Yes, l do mind.
Would you please turn that thing off? MAN [ON N.]
: Important news from Hong Kong, where Denver oíl gíant Blake Carríngton has just executed what some observers are callíng the deal of the century.
Turn it off, Alexis? - No.
_LA___.
l am very pleased to announce that Denver-Carríngton has secured vast oíl leases ínaverypromísíng areaoftheworld, the South Chína Sea.
l would líke to make ít clear, however, that although thís deal has been made wíth a foreígn government, ít ís ín no sense a polítícal deal.
lt ís, rather than that, for the good of the entíre world.
A world that ís constantly demandíng new sources of energy.
And energy, líke peace, should be for the benefít of mankínd, regardless of natíonal boundaríes.
l would now líke to íntroduce, representíng the cooperatíng government, - Mr.
Rashíd Ahmed.
- Thank you, Mr.
Carríngton.
l heartíly concur wíth all your víews, my fríend.
ln addítíon, l merely should líke to add-- [N TURNS OFF.]
What was that all about? Nothing that would interest you.
Mark, l need to be alone.
l've got some private calls to make.
All right.
l'll iust watch the sports news in my room.
Yes, this is Mrs.
Colby.
l want to make a call to Hong Kong.
The person l want to speak to is called Rashid Ahmed.
Yes, that's R-A-S-H-l-D, A-H-M-E-D.
Now, ty him at the Hotel Peninsula.
lf he's not there, ty the Mandarin or the Regent.
[PHONE CLICKING.]
All right, Mark, if you're finished listening in on the extension, l want to see you right away.
l want an explanation, Mark, and it better be a damned good one.
Since when are you so interested in my business affairs? First you question Dex, and now you're listening on my phone conversations.
lsn't it obvious, Alexis? No, it is not obvious.
l can't be a bodyguard the rest of my life.
And l want to improve my future.
Learn from an expert.
One of the smartest people l know: You.
Look, l've managed to put away a little over 20 grand and l was hoping if you could give me a few leads, l might parlay that into something bigger.
ls that so terrible? No.
Thinking about making money is never terrible.
All right.
As soon as we get back from Hong Kong, l'll ty and give you a few tips.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong is going to be all business, so l want you concentrating on me, not on your potential business deals.
And l'm coming with you? Yes, you are.
This trip is going to involve a staggering amount of cash.
l'm going to need protection.
Staggering amount? Just how staggering? More than 20 grand, Mark.
Much more, and much grander.
TRACY: l'm sory.
What was that question? One bite of this shrimp and my senses went ''whoo.
'' l asked what you thought of Eric Grayson.
Mr.
Grayson.
Well, l only saw him at your photo session when you introduced us.
l hardly know the man.
That's strange that your paths have never crossed.
l mean, politics and public relations are not that far apart.
Strange maybe, but true.
Now, you never ask a question without a reason.
So l assume you have one here.
l do.
l want to assure myself that you two That you get along.
After all, you're gonna be working vey closely with him when we get back home.
When we get back home, the man l'm looking forward to working closely with is not Eric Grayson.
lt's someone that l find much more fascinating.
And l'm sitting with him right now.
A vey special night.
Ready for my next course to this incredible dinner.
[LAUGHS.]
ls something the matter? lt iust occurred to me that l forgot to call our office and tell them to make sure that they send one of our planes to San Francisco to pick us up tomorrow morning.
l'll be right back.
- Mrs.
Colby.
- What is it, Jason? Jason left last Friday, l'm Lloyd.
Oh, yes, of course.
What is it, Lloyd? Your suite at The Peninsula Hotel has been confirmed, and here are your plane tickets for this afternoon's flight to Hong Kong.
Oh, thank you, Lloyd.
That will be all.
You mind if l come in? Oh, no, of course not.
Since you've obviously brought me flowers.
At least, l presume they're for me.
They are.
Call them a bribe.
l'm flying to Los Angeles to line up a refiney deal for our Oscar Stone number.
l'm here to persuade you to go with me.
And this is a corsage for our trip.
Violets.
Oh, Dex, that's terribly sweet of you.
But l can't possibly Ieave Denver right now.
l've got a million things to do.
Besides, you really wouldn't want me with you in Hollywood with all those pretty, bikinied morsels dying to seduce you.
Alexis, l stopped sleeping around with morsels, bikinied or otherwise, the day l fell in love with you.
You might not believe this, but l am vey old-fashioned that way.
You mean you really believe in fidelity? That's right.
lt's one of the most important words, probably the most important, in a relationship.
And yes, l believe in it.
A corsage of violets.
You know, you really are delightfully old-fashioned, darling.
Then you'll come? l'm sory, Dex.
This is one time that l can't possibly change my mind.
Well, l am going to have to finish up business in L.
A.
as fast as l can and come flying back to you with some vey old-fashioned thoughts.
Like a man and a woman belonging only to each other.
CLAUDIA: Oh, Kystle.
- Claudia.
l'm glad we could have lunch today so we can talk.
Oh, so am l.
l think it's a really great i-- Lindsay? l'm sory.
l knew a girl once, just pretty as you.
Hair the same colour.
And a dress vey much like the one you're wearing.
- Hi, honey.
- Hi, Mom.
l booked a tennis lesson for us in ten minutes on the main court so you'd better hury and get changed.
Claudia, we've all seen people we think are someone else.
lt happens sometimes.
Hello, Mother.
Steven, darling.
Welcome back, and my condolences.
- Condolences? - Yes.
This whole terrible campaign against poor Claudia, driving you to Peru.
Well, l'm back.
The Cunningham meeting went vey well and there are things waiting for me at my desk.
Steven, darling, sit down.
That's not why l wanted to see you.
l want to talk to you about your father.
What about him? While you were gone, he grabbed the opportunity to steal what was rightfully ColbyCo's.
He sneaked off to Hong Kong to tie up those leases in the South China Sea.
Without ColbyCo even being in on the bidding? Yes.
Mother, in case you don't already know this, Blake Carrington doesn't sneak and he doesn't steal.
lf there's anybody in the family you should be suspicious of, it's my big brother.
l can't prove this, but those evaluation reports l did on that area disappeared when Adam left for Denver-Carrington.
Who cares who did it? It's done.
And l'm going to have to go to Hong Kong to wrap up any leases that might still be available.
l want you to look after things while l'm gone.
Where did those come from? - Where did those violets come from? - Dex gave them to me.
Dex? Steven, it's iust a bouquet of innocent little violets.
They're not all that rare.
Are you thinking they might have something to do with what's going on with Claudia? Oh, Steven, she's taking it badly enough.
But please don't let it affect you too.
lt's not, mother.
- Good.
- Have a nice trip.
Oh, l will.
You know, l always adore shopping in Hong Kong.
One never knows what opportunities might be on sale.
[TRACY SPEAKS CHINESE.]
Now, that is Chinese for: ''Thank you for dinner, the evening and for you being you.
'' All that wrapped up in one, tiny ''xíe xíe ní''? TRACY [LAUGHING.]
: Yes.
- Why didn't you tell me? - Tell you what? That l have only had on one earring all night long? - Is that so tragic? - Oh, it's worse.
It's much worse.
Oh, l know.
l bet l took it off while l was using your phone before dinner.
Do you mind if l come in for a look? No.
No, not at all.
TRACY: It's a bad habit l have.
You have no idea how many earrings l lose.
Let's see.
Yeah, telephone is here l was here Let's see.
Here it was, all the time.
- Thank you, Blake.
- Well, l didn't find it, you did.
No, for being a total gentleman and not calling attention to it during dinner.
You curious as to why l didn't? l am curious about a lot of things.
l didn't call your attention to it, because you were wearing both your earrings in the restaurant.
You see, l'm vey aware of women's earrings.
l'm also aware of women's games.
Meaning exactly what? Well, let's call it ''the Eric Grayson charade.
'' What? Tracy, your flight bag and mine are exactly the same.
l opened yours by mistake.
And you saw the photograph.
Two people who are not exactly strangers.
TRACY: All right.
Guilty as charged.
l knew Eric Grayson.
And, on occasion, intimately.
l'm a woman.
He's an attractive man.
And l happen to believe in going after what l find attractive.
And l think you're vey attractive.
Don't you feel the same way about me? Otherwise why would you bring me all the way to Hong Kong? You are here, young lady, only because my wife is pregnant.
And as for what you call attraction to me, you'd better forget it, right now.
Because l'm flying back to Denver tomorrow morning alone.
You can't just walk-- l don't care what flight you're on, what plane or where you're going.
l'm buying off your contract right now.
Paid in full.
lf that amount is not enough, you can contact my Business Affairs people.
You're fired, Miss Kendall.
Goodbye.
You can't.
You're going to miss me.
l am vey good at what l do.
l'm sure you are.
Goodbye, Miss Kendall.
ADAM: Morning, Kystle.
- Morning, Adam.
lt's nothing l said, l hope.
Oh, no, l've got to get dressed to meet Blake at the airport.
There will be a lot of press there and he'll wanna see a familiar face.
Kystle, he pulled off a real coup.
Please tell him we're all vey proud of him.
l will.
Heidi, l'm real hungy this morning.
Can l have a lot of eveything? - Vey well, sir.
- Thank you.
Good morning.
Mrs.
Colby, would you like your eggs now? Oh, no, thank you.
l'd like to be left alone with Mr.
Carrington, please.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Thanks.
l've been looking for you.
Whatever it's about, Iet me get you breakfast.
l've been looking for you because l got off the phone to a newspaper in Bismarck.
And l found out there is an institution there for the criminally insane.
And l wanna go there and find my mother.
Now, when l first asked you to help me, you said you couldn't possibly leave Denver while your father was away.
Well, he's coming back this morning.
l'd like to fly to North Dakota today.
Kirby.
Kirby, why don't you just leave it alone? lt is in the past.
What do you want me to do? Leave it buried? Leave it buried because this is a part of my past you can't possibly accept? Adam, who always has an answer to eveything, is suddenly so silent.
ls suddenly so speechless.
Well, l'm going to find her and l don't need you.
Listen to me.
Listen to me.
Kirby, Kirby, Kirby.
Kirby, l love you.
l love you.
When are you gonna get it through your head that l love you for who and what you are? That who and what your mother was has nothing to do with it.
Then show me that, Adam.
Show me.
JEFF: l think it's terrific.
FALLON: What is? JEFF: After skiing, you complained about having a headache.
Now, we iust finished riding, no complaints.
FALLON : That's because l have no headache.
Whoever thought we'd end up such lions of logic? That's vey good, Fallon.
Do you remember when we were in Montana? lt was different this time when we went skiing.
l think we're older, more mature.
l think we both realised we made a mistake getting a divorce.
And you're not buying any of this, are you? Oh, yeah, it's true.
Well, it doesn't look like it.
What am l supposed to look like? What's a true face look like? Well, a smile would be nice.
- That's vey nice.
- Is that better? l think it would be nice though if you said yes.
- To what? - Marying me.
That is when my divorce from Kirby is final.
- That's a vey tempting offer.
- And you're tempted to say yes.
Now, why don't you say yes, we can start making some plans? You helped me get over a lot.
The accident, Peter l iust don't wanna say yes for the wrong reasons.
l don't want to short-change you again.
You think you could iust give me a little time? Sure, l'll give you all the time you need.
REPORTER: Welcome back.
- Nice to be back.
REPORTER: Your N Interview from Hong Kong went through the roof.
BLAKE: Good, l'm glad to hear that.
REPORTER: There were a few areas-- - l didn't get around to discussing, but l will just give me a few! minutes.
MAN 1 : Can l take your briefcase, Mr.
Carrington? l desperately need to discuss things with my chief of public relations.
- Hello.
- Mr.
Carrington, we need to discuss-- MAN 1 : Dennis.
MAN 2: Gentlemen, over here.
REPORTER: Mr.
Carrington? MAN 2: Over here.
REPORTER: A statement, please? MAN 2: Over here, thank you.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, over here.
Stand back, all right? Over here, please.
Stand back.
- Tracy? l can't believe it.
- l couldn't either.
And when l saw that photo of Grayson and l confronted her with it Blake, do you remember when l missed that meeting with you at the Capitol because of the note trading thing? Do you think she could have been so devious as to plan that? Yes.
Yes, l think she could have been.
But darling, that's all yesterday's news.
- Well, l've got some news for you.
- What's that? Well, if this continues, you're gonna need tons of publicity.
And l'm gonna handle it for you now, personally.
BLAKE: Yeah, but what about--? l know, what about the baby? Darling, l went to see Dr.
Holton yesterday.
And he said l was thriving.
His word and a lovely word: Thriving.
And he said l could go back to work as long as l didn't overdo it.
All right.
But l'm going to see to it that you don't overdo it.
Until we find a replacement for Tracy.
You know, l may be furious with her, but l have to give her credit for one thing.
What's that? She has excellent taste in oh, so sey men.
Well, thank you.
Now, that's much better.
Last time you paid me a compliment, l believe you used the word ''cute.
'' You are cute, and sey.
[BLAKE CHUCKLES.]
And you You get prettier evey day.
Prettier and prettier.
What's keeping him? He's been in that file room for almost half an hour.
He's an editor, Kirby.
A reporter could have stopped him, asked him for something.
Oh, Mr.
Gifford, you found the article you were looking for? l did.
About your mother.
What does it say? Essentially what they told you at the state asylum.
That she had been evaluated six months ago, judged sane and released.
No forwarding address.
Well, this newspaper article must have more information in it than that.
Does it say where she is? Do you know where she is? Yes, Mrs.
Colby.
Unhappily, l do.
Oh, no, no.
Please, don't come with me.
l want to, Kirby.
l just want to be alone with her.
Okay.
Hello.
Who are you looking for? Alicia Anders.
She was my mother.
l'm her daughter, Kirby.
Her daughter? l believe what you're looking for is over there.
Why did you have to do it? Why did you have to leave me? When they released her from that place, your mother came to live here.
We became friends.
She had made a lovely rag doll.
She called it Kirby.
l remember she used to sit for hours with it cradled in her arms.
Oh, she loved you so much.
And she wanted to go back and find you and your father, and ask him to forgive her.
So finally one night she said, yes, she'd go to Denver.
But she never did.
l guess she iust didn't have the courage.
When your life has been ruined, destroyed.
.
.
Kl RBY: l don't wanna hear any more of thís.
Your father had delivered the truth, so why shouldn't you? She ran away, Kirby, when you were 2 years old.
She ran off with her lover.
And when he didn't satisfy her anymore, she killed him.
No.
Your father should have had the courage to tell you himself, instead of blaming me for that letter from the grave.
When your life has been ruined, destroyed.
Thank you.
Are you all right? Let's go home.
Home, yes.
l know exactly what l have to do there.
Good morning, Mr.
Dexter.
How was L.
A.
? lt was a good trip with good news.
l'm gonna see Mrs.
Colby, Lloyd.
l'll be happy to take the message.
Give it to her when she comes in from Hong Kong.
From where? You didn't know? She left yesterday.
Where is she staying in Hong Kong? Dex.
Why do you ask? You gonna send her some flowers? Maybe more violets? Or orchids this time.
l'd like to speak with you inside.
All right.
What do you wanna see me about? Let's start with the two of us.
From the vey beginning, l haven't exactly been on your list of favourite people.
Well, that's vey observant of you.
And vey true.
And the reason should be pretty damned obvious.
The first time we met was after l'd come back from Canada with your mother.
You saw a relationship beginning to build between us.
You resented that relationship, you still do.
So let's put it this way, Steven.
l don't waste my time liking people who don't like me.
- l'm not finished.
- Make it quick, l'm in a hury.
Your father was on the board of Denver-Carrington for years.
And you used to work closely with him from time to time.
Did you ever meet a man who once worked for my father named Matthew Blaisdel? Your wife's first husband.
l met him several times, why? lt iust struck me that you remind me of Matthew in a way.
Your voice, similar accent, not unlike his.
Well, maybe that's because we were both from Wyoming.
Maybe.
This has to do with those violets, doesn't it? Maybe.
Now, you look.
l resent your even beginning to suspect me in this lousy business that's going on against your wife.
l don't give a damn what you resent.
l warn you, Dex, don't you ever hurt anybody in my family.
My mother or anybody else.
You may find that out someday.
Look, it's a wheel.
Yeah.
Look at that, it spins.
Morning.
- Good morning.
- l'm on my way to the office, l iust wanted to say goodbye to Little Blake.
Oh, he's with his nanny, downstairs in the garden.
You're practising on impending motherhood? On office hours, l see.
Well, Blake's idea.
He insists that l go in an hour later and come home an hour earlier.
So, what better place to spend my time than here? Your own baby, finally.
l'm so happy for you.
Or have l already said that? A few times.
Well, l am.
And it's gonna bring you and Daddy even closer together, if that's possible.
You know, l have to give my mother credit for one thing.
She tried to warn me about Peter and what she termed, ''his lack of love for children.
'' And l keep thinking, what if l had married him? And what if he tried to pull me away from my son? You would never have done that, Fallon.
l don't know.
l may have weakened in some way to ty and please him.
l don't think so.
Well, what l'm tying to say is, when two people have a child between them, even if they've gone their separate ways, it's a bond that just doesn't go away.
Like with you and Jeff.
Yes, like with me and Jeff.
Well, you two seem closer since you came back from skiing.
You're wondering if there's a chance we'll get back together again? Who can say? l mean, did you know that you and Blake were gonna work it out until suddenly it was the only thing that seemed right? No, l didn't.
But it worked out beautifully.
So it did.
MARCIA: Mr.
Carrington? By the time you've finished with Mr.
Grayson, l'll have those files pulled.
Thank you, Marcia.
Mr.
Grayson? Blake.
Congratulations on your trip.
You got as much media coverage as a head of state.
But now that you're back, l hope we can concentrate on party business.
Sit down.
Seated.
And yes, Blake, l will have a drink with you.
l'm not offering you a drink.
l didn't ask you over here for a drink.
l wanted to talk to you face to face.
l wanted to tell you that l don't do business with liars.
You do realise what you just implied? l implied nothing, l said it.
Who has been giving me a hard time at the party, Blake? l saw your antagonism with Sam Dexter's son.
ls it more of the same? Dexter's got nothing to do with this.
lt's your ethics, or lack of them.
- What the hell are you talking about? - You want it in two words? Tracy Kendall.
What? Blake.
That woman is nothing more to me than-- That woman has told me what she is to you.
She told me about your tricm little scheme too.
And l want to tell you this.
l want nothing to do with a political party that puts up with the likes of you.
You understand that? Do you realise what this is going to do to me if you come out and make an issue of it? l'm not going to.
l know you've got a wife, l know you've got a family.
l don't know them, but l respect their right not to have their name dragged through this kind of dirt.
So you make whatever excuse you have to do to save your hide, but l'm resigning as party chairman as we speak.
l expect you to make that announcement within the hour.
Now get out of here.
[PHONE BUZZES.]
Hello? Yes, Helen, she's right here.
Hold on.
For you.
Hello? MAN : Claudía.
Matthew? [WHISPERS.]
Fallon.
We need you, Líndsay and l.
Oh, Fallon, call the police.
Keep him talking.
We need you, Claudía.
We're a famíly.
[IN NORMAL VOlCE.]
Oh, Matthew.
Matthew, but-- Matthew.
He hung up.
l'd like some information, please.
When is the next flight to Hong Kong? BLAKE: Good.
That's wonderful.
Wonderful, Dan, thank you.
Wonderful meaning? l'm halfway to the hundred million l need, Andrew.
l appears that just about eveyone l know - is anxious to get in on this deal.
- Uh-huh.
And you told me so.
Yes, l believe l did.
- Hello, Andrew.
- Kystle.
Oh, you look lovely.
Why, thank you.
Darling, we're supposed to meet eveyone in the restaurant in half an hour.
Don't you think we should get started? All right.
Blake, you're riding high at the moment.
And it's really nice to see.
But l wouldn't ride too high just yet, because-- Sometimes people fall from heights.
l know that, my friend.
But l'm not afraid of falling.
Because this deal is a natural, it's a once in a lifetime thing.
And nothing and no one is gonna screw it up for me.
Bellboy.
Put Mr.
Jennings' bags in here, this is his room.
l thought you said we were gonna have a suite? We do have a suite.
This is your bedroom, and my bedroom and sitting room are there.
The connecting door will remain locked from my side unless l have a specific reason for unlocking it.
Understood? No, not understood.
What about all the cash l'm supposed to be protecting for you? You'll get it later.
Right now l'm gonna go and complain to the airline about that dreadful overnight delay in Honolulu.
Beats flying with engine trouble.
Get some sleep, Mark.
l'll talk to you later.
RASHID: Go.
ALEXIS: Rashid.
My remarkable Alexis, look at you.
Look at you.
Obviously fatigued from a delayed and unholy flight, yet more beautiful than ever.
Thank you.
You are in the mood for champagne, even though it is morning here.
Oh, l'm always in the mood for champagne, Rashid, particularly when l see an old friend again.
A toast to the most provocative and fascinating woman in the world.
- And the most cyptic.
- Cyptic? You phoned your people here to suggest that l wait in Hong Kong for you - because it would be worth my while? - Mm-hm.
What is it all about? Oh, first things first, Rashid.
l am absolutely exhausted.
ln fact, l'm so tired that all l want to do is find my bed and lie down.
l have a better idea.
Why don't l show you where the bed is and lie there with you, yes? No.
But you can sit in a corner and watch me sleep if you like.
Alexis, my love, l had much, much more interesting ideas.
ldeas, Rashid, are a dime a dozen.
lt so happens l have a dime.
Or the equivalent of one.
Darling, l'm much too exhausted for jokes.
l iust want to have a little nap and then later we'll talk.
About? About you and me and Blake Carrington and $5 million.
Come in.
Good afternoon, Carrington.
And an important afternoon for us both.
Though one would hardly know from the frown on your face.
Smile, my friend, smile.
At least for the television cameras.
, That shouldn't be too difficult l shouldn't think, with a woman as beautiful as Miss Kendall at your side.
lf you don't mind, Ahmed, l'm iust going over my notes for this press statement.
lf you are tying to avoid a conversation with me, that is a vey poor excuse.
There is not a word there that you have not studied to the core by now.
Besides, the subject of beautiful women is not exactly anathema to you.
The last time we made a deal, you had the ravishing Alexis at your side.
ln Italy, remember? And recently l saw a photo, of your most recent wedding? Fabulous-looking blond.
You have exceedingly good taste in wives, Carrington.
Look, you are in this hotel room for one reason and one reason only, to make a statement to the press.
Now, let's keep it that way, damn it.
[KNOCKING.]
Mr.
Carrington, the television crew's outside.
Are you ready? l'm iust about as ready as l'll ever be.
At least to get this part over with, anyway.
Gentlemen, this is Mr.
Chu.
[PHONE RINGING.]
Hello? BLAKE: Hello, darlíng.
- Díd l wake you? - That's all right.
l'm sorry.
l know you need all the rest you can get.
The baby and l slept beautifully.
We're healthy and happy.
That makes three of us then, because l'm elated.
l had to share the good news with the lady l happen to be desperately in love with.
The deals all set, all sígned.
l announced ít at a press conference on TV.
Which, incidentally, should be on the morning news in Denver.
Well, then l'll watch the 8, 9, and 10:OO programmes.
What time is it there in Hong Kong? lt's time to grab a late dinner after all the commotion.
No, no.
l'm taking Tracy as a reward for all her good work.
She did a wonderful iob handling that press conference.
Well the photo coverage! she arranged when you were made party chairman is terrific.
lt was a great idea introducing you to Eric Grayson.
[KNOCKING ON DOOR.]
Oh, hold on a minute, darling.
Come in.
These just arrived, sir.
l don't believe it.
Remember my telling you about some lost luggage? Mine and Tracy's? Well, it just arrived.
Yes.
Just in time to fly back with us tomorrow morning.
Hold on.
Put it over there, please.
And here you are.
- Did Miss Kendall's bag come too? - Yes, sir, l left it with her.
- Thank you, Mr.
Carrington.
- Thank you.
Mm-hm.
Yes, yes, we're booked on the 8:OO flight tomorrow morning.
l'll be seeíng you soon.
And l love you vey, vey much.
l love you too, darling.
Bye, darling.
Bye.
Eric Grayson.
l'll be damned.
Mr.
Carrington? Just a minute, please.
Yes, Tracy? l guess you could call it musical bags.
- Yours was left in my room by mistake.
- Oh.
Well, our exchange.
More than fair, crucial.
Now l have a hair dyer, my favourite lipstick.
You won't be ashamed of me at dinner.
l hope you didn't open this by mistake.
l am a terrible packer.
lt's a mess.
What time are our dinner reservations? Thirty minutes.
Fine.
l will be ready in 20.
[GUNFIRE & INDIANS SHOUTING oN Tv.]
Morning, Alexis.
Not so loud, please, Mark, l have a terrible headache.
l stayed far too long at the Harrison's party last night.
Drank too much champagne, much too much brandy.
Pour me some coffee, will you? Vey black.
Sure.
Mind if l turn on that sports channel? Should be coming on soon.
Yes, l do mind.
Would you please turn that thing off? MAN [ON N.]
: Important news from Hong Kong, where Denver oíl gíant Blake Carríngton has just executed what some observers are callíng the deal of the century.
Turn it off, Alexis? - No.
_LA___.
l am very pleased to announce that Denver-Carríngton has secured vast oíl leases ínaverypromísíng areaoftheworld, the South Chína Sea.
l would líke to make ít clear, however, that although thís deal has been made wíth a foreígn government, ít ís ín no sense a polítícal deal.
lt ís, rather than that, for the good of the entíre world.
A world that ís constantly demandíng new sources of energy.
And energy, líke peace, should be for the benefít of mankínd, regardless of natíonal boundaríes.
l would now líke to íntroduce, representíng the cooperatíng government, - Mr.
Rashíd Ahmed.
- Thank you, Mr.
Carríngton.
l heartíly concur wíth all your víews, my fríend.
ln addítíon, l merely should líke to add-- [N TURNS OFF.]
What was that all about? Nothing that would interest you.
Mark, l need to be alone.
l've got some private calls to make.
All right.
l'll iust watch the sports news in my room.
Yes, this is Mrs.
Colby.
l want to make a call to Hong Kong.
The person l want to speak to is called Rashid Ahmed.
Yes, that's R-A-S-H-l-D, A-H-M-E-D.
Now, ty him at the Hotel Peninsula.
lf he's not there, ty the Mandarin or the Regent.
[PHONE CLICKING.]
All right, Mark, if you're finished listening in on the extension, l want to see you right away.
l want an explanation, Mark, and it better be a damned good one.
Since when are you so interested in my business affairs? First you question Dex, and now you're listening on my phone conversations.
lsn't it obvious, Alexis? No, it is not obvious.
l can't be a bodyguard the rest of my life.
And l want to improve my future.
Learn from an expert.
One of the smartest people l know: You.
Look, l've managed to put away a little over 20 grand and l was hoping if you could give me a few leads, l might parlay that into something bigger.
ls that so terrible? No.
Thinking about making money is never terrible.
All right.
As soon as we get back from Hong Kong, l'll ty and give you a few tips.
Meanwhile, Hong Kong is going to be all business, so l want you concentrating on me, not on your potential business deals.
And l'm coming with you? Yes, you are.
This trip is going to involve a staggering amount of cash.
l'm going to need protection.
Staggering amount? Just how staggering? More than 20 grand, Mark.
Much more, and much grander.
TRACY: l'm sory.
What was that question? One bite of this shrimp and my senses went ''whoo.
'' l asked what you thought of Eric Grayson.
Mr.
Grayson.
Well, l only saw him at your photo session when you introduced us.
l hardly know the man.
That's strange that your paths have never crossed.
l mean, politics and public relations are not that far apart.
Strange maybe, but true.
Now, you never ask a question without a reason.
So l assume you have one here.
l do.
l want to assure myself that you two That you get along.
After all, you're gonna be working vey closely with him when we get back home.
When we get back home, the man l'm looking forward to working closely with is not Eric Grayson.
lt's someone that l find much more fascinating.
And l'm sitting with him right now.
A vey special night.
Ready for my next course to this incredible dinner.
[LAUGHS.]
ls something the matter? lt iust occurred to me that l forgot to call our office and tell them to make sure that they send one of our planes to San Francisco to pick us up tomorrow morning.
l'll be right back.
- Mrs.
Colby.
- What is it, Jason? Jason left last Friday, l'm Lloyd.
Oh, yes, of course.
What is it, Lloyd? Your suite at The Peninsula Hotel has been confirmed, and here are your plane tickets for this afternoon's flight to Hong Kong.
Oh, thank you, Lloyd.
That will be all.
You mind if l come in? Oh, no, of course not.
Since you've obviously brought me flowers.
At least, l presume they're for me.
They are.
Call them a bribe.
l'm flying to Los Angeles to line up a refiney deal for our Oscar Stone number.
l'm here to persuade you to go with me.
And this is a corsage for our trip.
Violets.
Oh, Dex, that's terribly sweet of you.
But l can't possibly Ieave Denver right now.
l've got a million things to do.
Besides, you really wouldn't want me with you in Hollywood with all those pretty, bikinied morsels dying to seduce you.
Alexis, l stopped sleeping around with morsels, bikinied or otherwise, the day l fell in love with you.
You might not believe this, but l am vey old-fashioned that way.
You mean you really believe in fidelity? That's right.
lt's one of the most important words, probably the most important, in a relationship.
And yes, l believe in it.
A corsage of violets.
You know, you really are delightfully old-fashioned, darling.
Then you'll come? l'm sory, Dex.
This is one time that l can't possibly change my mind.
Well, l am going to have to finish up business in L.
A.
as fast as l can and come flying back to you with some vey old-fashioned thoughts.
Like a man and a woman belonging only to each other.
CLAUDIA: Oh, Kystle.
- Claudia.
l'm glad we could have lunch today so we can talk.
Oh, so am l.
l think it's a really great i-- Lindsay? l'm sory.
l knew a girl once, just pretty as you.
Hair the same colour.
And a dress vey much like the one you're wearing.
- Hi, honey.
- Hi, Mom.
l booked a tennis lesson for us in ten minutes on the main court so you'd better hury and get changed.
Claudia, we've all seen people we think are someone else.
lt happens sometimes.
Hello, Mother.
Steven, darling.
Welcome back, and my condolences.
- Condolences? - Yes.
This whole terrible campaign against poor Claudia, driving you to Peru.
Well, l'm back.
The Cunningham meeting went vey well and there are things waiting for me at my desk.
Steven, darling, sit down.
That's not why l wanted to see you.
l want to talk to you about your father.
What about him? While you were gone, he grabbed the opportunity to steal what was rightfully ColbyCo's.
He sneaked off to Hong Kong to tie up those leases in the South China Sea.
Without ColbyCo even being in on the bidding? Yes.
Mother, in case you don't already know this, Blake Carrington doesn't sneak and he doesn't steal.
lf there's anybody in the family you should be suspicious of, it's my big brother.
l can't prove this, but those evaluation reports l did on that area disappeared when Adam left for Denver-Carrington.
Who cares who did it? It's done.
And l'm going to have to go to Hong Kong to wrap up any leases that might still be available.
l want you to look after things while l'm gone.
Where did those come from? - Where did those violets come from? - Dex gave them to me.
Dex? Steven, it's iust a bouquet of innocent little violets.
They're not all that rare.
Are you thinking they might have something to do with what's going on with Claudia? Oh, Steven, she's taking it badly enough.
But please don't let it affect you too.
lt's not, mother.
- Good.
- Have a nice trip.
Oh, l will.
You know, l always adore shopping in Hong Kong.
One never knows what opportunities might be on sale.
[TRACY SPEAKS CHINESE.]
Now, that is Chinese for: ''Thank you for dinner, the evening and for you being you.
'' All that wrapped up in one, tiny ''xíe xíe ní''? TRACY [LAUGHING.]
: Yes.
- Why didn't you tell me? - Tell you what? That l have only had on one earring all night long? - Is that so tragic? - Oh, it's worse.
It's much worse.
Oh, l know.
l bet l took it off while l was using your phone before dinner.
Do you mind if l come in for a look? No.
No, not at all.
TRACY: It's a bad habit l have.
You have no idea how many earrings l lose.
Let's see.
Yeah, telephone is here l was here Let's see.
Here it was, all the time.
- Thank you, Blake.
- Well, l didn't find it, you did.
No, for being a total gentleman and not calling attention to it during dinner.
You curious as to why l didn't? l am curious about a lot of things.
l didn't call your attention to it, because you were wearing both your earrings in the restaurant.
You see, l'm vey aware of women's earrings.
l'm also aware of women's games.
Meaning exactly what? Well, let's call it ''the Eric Grayson charade.
'' What? Tracy, your flight bag and mine are exactly the same.
l opened yours by mistake.
And you saw the photograph.
Two people who are not exactly strangers.
TRACY: All right.
Guilty as charged.
l knew Eric Grayson.
And, on occasion, intimately.
l'm a woman.
He's an attractive man.
And l happen to believe in going after what l find attractive.
And l think you're vey attractive.
Don't you feel the same way about me? Otherwise why would you bring me all the way to Hong Kong? You are here, young lady, only because my wife is pregnant.
And as for what you call attraction to me, you'd better forget it, right now.
Because l'm flying back to Denver tomorrow morning alone.
You can't just walk-- l don't care what flight you're on, what plane or where you're going.
l'm buying off your contract right now.
Paid in full.
lf that amount is not enough, you can contact my Business Affairs people.
You're fired, Miss Kendall.
Goodbye.
You can't.
You're going to miss me.
l am vey good at what l do.
l'm sure you are.
Goodbye, Miss Kendall.
ADAM: Morning, Kystle.
- Morning, Adam.
lt's nothing l said, l hope.
Oh, no, l've got to get dressed to meet Blake at the airport.
There will be a lot of press there and he'll wanna see a familiar face.
Kystle, he pulled off a real coup.
Please tell him we're all vey proud of him.
l will.
Heidi, l'm real hungy this morning.
Can l have a lot of eveything? - Vey well, sir.
- Thank you.
Good morning.
Mrs.
Colby, would you like your eggs now? Oh, no, thank you.
l'd like to be left alone with Mr.
Carrington, please.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Thanks.
l've been looking for you.
Whatever it's about, Iet me get you breakfast.
l've been looking for you because l got off the phone to a newspaper in Bismarck.
And l found out there is an institution there for the criminally insane.
And l wanna go there and find my mother.
Now, when l first asked you to help me, you said you couldn't possibly leave Denver while your father was away.
Well, he's coming back this morning.
l'd like to fly to North Dakota today.
Kirby.
Kirby, why don't you just leave it alone? lt is in the past.
What do you want me to do? Leave it buried? Leave it buried because this is a part of my past you can't possibly accept? Adam, who always has an answer to eveything, is suddenly so silent.
ls suddenly so speechless.
Well, l'm going to find her and l don't need you.
Listen to me.
Listen to me.
Kirby, Kirby, Kirby.
Kirby, l love you.
l love you.
When are you gonna get it through your head that l love you for who and what you are? That who and what your mother was has nothing to do with it.
Then show me that, Adam.
Show me.
JEFF: l think it's terrific.
FALLON: What is? JEFF: After skiing, you complained about having a headache.
Now, we iust finished riding, no complaints.
FALLON : That's because l have no headache.
Whoever thought we'd end up such lions of logic? That's vey good, Fallon.
Do you remember when we were in Montana? lt was different this time when we went skiing.
l think we're older, more mature.
l think we both realised we made a mistake getting a divorce.
And you're not buying any of this, are you? Oh, yeah, it's true.
Well, it doesn't look like it.
What am l supposed to look like? What's a true face look like? Well, a smile would be nice.
- That's vey nice.
- Is that better? l think it would be nice though if you said yes.
- To what? - Marying me.
That is when my divorce from Kirby is final.
- That's a vey tempting offer.
- And you're tempted to say yes.
Now, why don't you say yes, we can start making some plans? You helped me get over a lot.
The accident, Peter l iust don't wanna say yes for the wrong reasons.
l don't want to short-change you again.
You think you could iust give me a little time? Sure, l'll give you all the time you need.
REPORTER: Welcome back.
- Nice to be back.
REPORTER: Your N Interview from Hong Kong went through the roof.
BLAKE: Good, l'm glad to hear that.
REPORTER: There were a few areas-- - l didn't get around to discussing, but l will just give me a few! minutes.
MAN 1 : Can l take your briefcase, Mr.
Carrington? l desperately need to discuss things with my chief of public relations.
- Hello.
- Mr.
Carrington, we need to discuss-- MAN 1 : Dennis.
MAN 2: Gentlemen, over here.
REPORTER: Mr.
Carrington? MAN 2: Over here.
REPORTER: A statement, please? MAN 2: Over here, thank you.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen, over here.
Stand back, all right? Over here, please.
Stand back.
- Tracy? l can't believe it.
- l couldn't either.
And when l saw that photo of Grayson and l confronted her with it Blake, do you remember when l missed that meeting with you at the Capitol because of the note trading thing? Do you think she could have been so devious as to plan that? Yes.
Yes, l think she could have been.
But darling, that's all yesterday's news.
- Well, l've got some news for you.
- What's that? Well, if this continues, you're gonna need tons of publicity.
And l'm gonna handle it for you now, personally.
BLAKE: Yeah, but what about--? l know, what about the baby? Darling, l went to see Dr.
Holton yesterday.
And he said l was thriving.
His word and a lovely word: Thriving.
And he said l could go back to work as long as l didn't overdo it.
All right.
But l'm going to see to it that you don't overdo it.
Until we find a replacement for Tracy.
You know, l may be furious with her, but l have to give her credit for one thing.
What's that? She has excellent taste in oh, so sey men.
Well, thank you.
Now, that's much better.
Last time you paid me a compliment, l believe you used the word ''cute.
'' You are cute, and sey.
[BLAKE CHUCKLES.]
And you You get prettier evey day.
Prettier and prettier.
What's keeping him? He's been in that file room for almost half an hour.
He's an editor, Kirby.
A reporter could have stopped him, asked him for something.
Oh, Mr.
Gifford, you found the article you were looking for? l did.
About your mother.
What does it say? Essentially what they told you at the state asylum.
That she had been evaluated six months ago, judged sane and released.
No forwarding address.
Well, this newspaper article must have more information in it than that.
Does it say where she is? Do you know where she is? Yes, Mrs.
Colby.
Unhappily, l do.
Oh, no, no.
Please, don't come with me.
l want to, Kirby.
l just want to be alone with her.
Okay.
Hello.
Who are you looking for? Alicia Anders.
She was my mother.
l'm her daughter, Kirby.
Her daughter? l believe what you're looking for is over there.
Why did you have to do it? Why did you have to leave me? When they released her from that place, your mother came to live here.
We became friends.
She had made a lovely rag doll.
She called it Kirby.
l remember she used to sit for hours with it cradled in her arms.
Oh, she loved you so much.
And she wanted to go back and find you and your father, and ask him to forgive her.
So finally one night she said, yes, she'd go to Denver.
But she never did.
l guess she iust didn't have the courage.
When your life has been ruined, destroyed.
.
.
Kl RBY: l don't wanna hear any more of thís.
Your father had delivered the truth, so why shouldn't you? She ran away, Kirby, when you were 2 years old.
She ran off with her lover.
And when he didn't satisfy her anymore, she killed him.
No.
Your father should have had the courage to tell you himself, instead of blaming me for that letter from the grave.
When your life has been ruined, destroyed.
Thank you.
Are you all right? Let's go home.
Home, yes.
l know exactly what l have to do there.
Good morning, Mr.
Dexter.
How was L.
A.
? lt was a good trip with good news.
l'm gonna see Mrs.
Colby, Lloyd.
l'll be happy to take the message.
Give it to her when she comes in from Hong Kong.
From where? You didn't know? She left yesterday.
Where is she staying in Hong Kong? Dex.
Why do you ask? You gonna send her some flowers? Maybe more violets? Or orchids this time.
l'd like to speak with you inside.
All right.
What do you wanna see me about? Let's start with the two of us.
From the vey beginning, l haven't exactly been on your list of favourite people.
Well, that's vey observant of you.
And vey true.
And the reason should be pretty damned obvious.
The first time we met was after l'd come back from Canada with your mother.
You saw a relationship beginning to build between us.
You resented that relationship, you still do.
So let's put it this way, Steven.
l don't waste my time liking people who don't like me.
- l'm not finished.
- Make it quick, l'm in a hury.
Your father was on the board of Denver-Carrington for years.
And you used to work closely with him from time to time.
Did you ever meet a man who once worked for my father named Matthew Blaisdel? Your wife's first husband.
l met him several times, why? lt iust struck me that you remind me of Matthew in a way.
Your voice, similar accent, not unlike his.
Well, maybe that's because we were both from Wyoming.
Maybe.
This has to do with those violets, doesn't it? Maybe.
Now, you look.
l resent your even beginning to suspect me in this lousy business that's going on against your wife.
l don't give a damn what you resent.
l warn you, Dex, don't you ever hurt anybody in my family.
My mother or anybody else.
You may find that out someday.
Look, it's a wheel.
Yeah.
Look at that, it spins.
Morning.
- Good morning.
- l'm on my way to the office, l iust wanted to say goodbye to Little Blake.
Oh, he's with his nanny, downstairs in the garden.
You're practising on impending motherhood? On office hours, l see.
Well, Blake's idea.
He insists that l go in an hour later and come home an hour earlier.
So, what better place to spend my time than here? Your own baby, finally.
l'm so happy for you.
Or have l already said that? A few times.
Well, l am.
And it's gonna bring you and Daddy even closer together, if that's possible.
You know, l have to give my mother credit for one thing.
She tried to warn me about Peter and what she termed, ''his lack of love for children.
'' And l keep thinking, what if l had married him? And what if he tried to pull me away from my son? You would never have done that, Fallon.
l don't know.
l may have weakened in some way to ty and please him.
l don't think so.
Well, what l'm tying to say is, when two people have a child between them, even if they've gone their separate ways, it's a bond that just doesn't go away.
Like with you and Jeff.
Yes, like with me and Jeff.
Well, you two seem closer since you came back from skiing.
You're wondering if there's a chance we'll get back together again? Who can say? l mean, did you know that you and Blake were gonna work it out until suddenly it was the only thing that seemed right? No, l didn't.
But it worked out beautifully.
So it did.
MARCIA: Mr.
Carrington? By the time you've finished with Mr.
Grayson, l'll have those files pulled.
Thank you, Marcia.
Mr.
Grayson? Blake.
Congratulations on your trip.
You got as much media coverage as a head of state.
But now that you're back, l hope we can concentrate on party business.
Sit down.
Seated.
And yes, Blake, l will have a drink with you.
l'm not offering you a drink.
l didn't ask you over here for a drink.
l wanted to talk to you face to face.
l wanted to tell you that l don't do business with liars.
You do realise what you just implied? l implied nothing, l said it.
Who has been giving me a hard time at the party, Blake? l saw your antagonism with Sam Dexter's son.
ls it more of the same? Dexter's got nothing to do with this.
lt's your ethics, or lack of them.
- What the hell are you talking about? - You want it in two words? Tracy Kendall.
What? Blake.
That woman is nothing more to me than-- That woman has told me what she is to you.
She told me about your tricm little scheme too.
And l want to tell you this.
l want nothing to do with a political party that puts up with the likes of you.
You understand that? Do you realise what this is going to do to me if you come out and make an issue of it? l'm not going to.
l know you've got a wife, l know you've got a family.
l don't know them, but l respect their right not to have their name dragged through this kind of dirt.
So you make whatever excuse you have to do to save your hide, but l'm resigning as party chairman as we speak.
l expect you to make that announcement within the hour.
Now get out of here.
[PHONE BUZZES.]
Hello? Yes, Helen, she's right here.
Hold on.
For you.
Hello? MAN : Claudía.
Matthew? [WHISPERS.]
Fallon.
We need you, Líndsay and l.
Oh, Fallon, call the police.
Keep him talking.
We need you, Claudía.
We're a famíly.
[IN NORMAL VOlCE.]
Oh, Matthew.
Matthew, but-- Matthew.
He hung up.
l'd like some information, please.
When is the next flight to Hong Kong? BLAKE: Good.
That's wonderful.
Wonderful, Dan, thank you.
Wonderful meaning? l'm halfway to the hundred million l need, Andrew.
l appears that just about eveyone l know - is anxious to get in on this deal.
- Uh-huh.
And you told me so.
Yes, l believe l did.
- Hello, Andrew.
- Kystle.
Oh, you look lovely.
Why, thank you.
Darling, we're supposed to meet eveyone in the restaurant in half an hour.
Don't you think we should get started? All right.
Blake, you're riding high at the moment.
And it's really nice to see.
But l wouldn't ride too high just yet, because-- Sometimes people fall from heights.
l know that, my friend.
But l'm not afraid of falling.
Because this deal is a natural, it's a once in a lifetime thing.
And nothing and no one is gonna screw it up for me.
Bellboy.
Put Mr.
Jennings' bags in here, this is his room.
l thought you said we were gonna have a suite? We do have a suite.
This is your bedroom, and my bedroom and sitting room are there.
The connecting door will remain locked from my side unless l have a specific reason for unlocking it.
Understood? No, not understood.
What about all the cash l'm supposed to be protecting for you? You'll get it later.
Right now l'm gonna go and complain to the airline about that dreadful overnight delay in Honolulu.
Beats flying with engine trouble.
Get some sleep, Mark.
l'll talk to you later.
RASHID: Go.
ALEXIS: Rashid.
My remarkable Alexis, look at you.
Look at you.
Obviously fatigued from a delayed and unholy flight, yet more beautiful than ever.
Thank you.
You are in the mood for champagne, even though it is morning here.
Oh, l'm always in the mood for champagne, Rashid, particularly when l see an old friend again.
A toast to the most provocative and fascinating woman in the world.
- And the most cyptic.
- Cyptic? You phoned your people here to suggest that l wait in Hong Kong for you - because it would be worth my while? - Mm-hm.
What is it all about? Oh, first things first, Rashid.
l am absolutely exhausted.
ln fact, l'm so tired that all l want to do is find my bed and lie down.
l have a better idea.
Why don't l show you where the bed is and lie there with you, yes? No.
But you can sit in a corner and watch me sleep if you like.
Alexis, my love, l had much, much more interesting ideas.
ldeas, Rashid, are a dime a dozen.
lt so happens l have a dime.
Or the equivalent of one.
Darling, l'm much too exhausted for jokes.
l iust want to have a little nap and then later we'll talk.
About? About you and me and Blake Carrington and $5 million.
