Dynasty (2017) s05e04 Episode Script

1 I can't remember the last time we had a quiet morning together.
I know.
I wish we could somehow freeze this moment.
That's a great idea.
- Let's do that.
- Well, if we're gonna freeze a moment how about this one? What the duck? You couldn't let your parents have five minutes alone, could you? Believe me, you're not getting this duck back any time soon.
Hey.
I'm sorry, didn't mean to wake you.
Especially since it looked like you were dreaming about something fun.
Me? No, no, no, no.
Just a totally average, boring dream.
Didn't mean anything.
Where are you going off to, and, more importantly, is that infinity scarf going with you? The producers who own the movie rights to my book want me to meet with some hotshot indie director.
Now, if I can get her on board, they might finally turn it into a movie.
Liam, that's unbelievable.
It's still a long shot.
This isn't the first time they've showed interest.
Well, they'd be idiots not to turn The Biggest Payday into the biggest blockbuster.
You're gonna crush that meeting.
Without, uh, this.
I think we're supposed to celebrate after the meeting goes well.
Right, yes.
It's just this role reversal is pretty hot.
I mean, hustling in the mornings is usually my thing.
Yeah, what are you gonna do today? Anything but my job, I guess.
Because, you know, my self-worth can't be just about building a massive media empire or blazing trails as a female CEO.
Although, you know, if it were, I'd be fine with that.
Okay, but you said that you were gonna use this time to figure out who you can be beyond Fallon the CEO to feel more fulfilled.
Not just fine.
Right.
I did.
And I'm not gonna figure that out by lying in bed - all day.
- Mm-mm.
Although maybe ten more minutes.
No.
I'm kidding.
It is time for me to expand my life and seize the day.
Mm, I can't believe this is our first breakfast-not-in-bed since we were reunited by fate and I was falsely accused of murder.
You don't hear me complaining.
Neither am I.
I just want to catch up.
Clothed.
Hey, I am on board with that.
Whenever you want.
The next few days are packed with errands and business for the skin care line launch with Adam.
Oh, you mean your psycho son who tried to frame you for murder? Top of the morning to, uh, well, both of you.
I forgave Adam.
And I would do the same thing if you framed me for murder.
But make no mistake.
Alexam is my company.
Adam is a measly two letters on the back-third of the name.
Well, then why do you even need him? I'm throwing him a bone to keep him happy, since I stole most of his company.
Plus he is a doctor.
And his participation helps legitimize the product.
Well, I still don't trust him.
Or, uh him.
Dex? Things are going great.
Look, just make sure he's into you for you, okay? And not some dream version of you he invented when he was in college and you were Blake's hot new wife.
Look, I just don't want to see you hurt.
So I guess I'll see you when you're done with all your stuff.
Unless you would like to come with me.
And maybe we could catch up in between tasks? Sure.
I think I can clear my schedule.
Mmm, perfect.
Thanks for agreeing to meet today.
Of course I'm here, Mr.
CEO.
Mr.
Interim CEO.
Oh, same thing.
I was ecstatic when your assistant called.
I have something I wanted to run by you.
But what's with the formalities? I'm getting acquainted with Fallon Unlimited's FSN slate and you're part of that, so I'm gonna jump right in.
Your FSN sales have stalled.
So now is the time for your next move.
Couldn't agree more.
Well, FSN airs internationally, yet your brand doesn't sell well outside of the U.
S.
market.
It's time you took Dom-Mystique global.
Have you seen the news about NordicStar Airlines? They're accepting submissions to overhaul all their uniforms.
I did hear about that.
Landing a contract like this would be a dream.
Yeah, and would literally take your brand worldwide.
But it's a dream.
NordicStar only works with award-winning designers, which I will eventually be, but I'm not there yet.
However I want to enter Fashion Fest East and compete for the Plume d'Or Award.
Past winners have gone on to do big things on the international stage.
I want to be more than a ready-to-wear designer, but I have to do it at the right pace and with the right help.
So any chance you can make a call for me? Thank God, there you are! I've been looking everywhere for you.
Today is the first day of the rest of my life, and I need your help.
Well, I was just about to set my daily intention.
But I can pull a card for you next.
What? No, I said I needed help, - not a scene from Hocus Pocus.
- Okay.
Well, you're not getting anything with that rude 'tude.
Look, I'm sorry, it's probably just my anxiety talking.
I realized that my life has been one singular, perfectly pitched note when it really should be more like an Etta James featuring Stevie Nicks harmony-packed power anthem.
- Huh? - I need to be more well-rounded.
I have to explore what fulfills me outside of work.
I mean, I can't spend my whole life in the boardroom.
Oh, no, I'm not falling for this.
Fallon Carrington is all work, all the time.
And I will not be used as your alibi to sneak back into the office like you did with Liam.
No, I'm serious.
I am more than just my job.
I just need your help figuring out what that more is.
I mean, you're always so good at redefining yourself.
Well, it's true, I am quite multitalented.
When I was 14, I Okay, we're still talking about me let's stay on topic.
Of course I'll help you.
Don't waste your time, hermana.
You're not getting out of here even if your hands are free.
This psychotic plan of yours is never gonna work.
Sorry, sweetie.
It totally is.
I just waited for your husband to leave his computer open long enough to get the account numbers needed to complete the transfer.
- Did you call the lawyer? - He's working on the documents now.
And will call me directly when they're ready.
Then I'll sign my name well, your name on the dotted line, collect a handsome check from your brother, and be on my very merry way.
Flores Incorporado will be back where it belongs.
- With me.
- You gave up your right to the company the day you left México.
When Blake figures this out, he's gonna kill you both.
I hate to break it to you, but he couldn't be more oblivious.
Blake, like the rest of the family, barely notices me.
You.
- Us? - You won't get away with this.
Oh.
But we already have.
I know the book can read like a standard drama, but I think the movie has the potential to be so much more.
In the right hands, of course.
So what do you think? You interested? I wouldn't be here if I wasn't.
But my schedule is kind of all over the place these days.
Do the producers have any idea of when they'd like to start shooting? Well, they would work around your schedule.
Of course.
Uh This is a rough calendar that they've sent me.
You'll probably understand it better than I do.
- Hey, what are you doing here? - Hey.
- Nina.
- Wow, I really hoped I'd never have to see you and your delicate sensibilities ever again.
Oh, you mean my manners? So you two clearly know each other? Unfortunately.
It was 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Let's not make it 31.
I have work to do.
Pardon the interruption, milady.
Oh.
You're friends with that guy? I wouldn't say friends.
I don't like to label.
He, uh, used to work for the Carringtons.
Well, this has been informative.
I think I have all I need from you.
Oh, should I have the producers reach out to your people? Don't worry about that.
We know where to find you.
She is stylish.
She's graceful.
She's a badass CEO, but now she is so much more.
Please meet Fallon the professor.
Eh, I'm much less of a teacher and more of a doer.
Next.
What about Fallon the artiste? Oh, you mean like Alexis and her creepy dog paintings? Pass.
Uh, what about an ambassadorship? You could be a diplomat.
I feel like you're missing the point.
I'm not looking for more employment.
I am looking for more fulfillment.
I need something that feeds my soul.
Okay.
More fulfillment.
Let's see, um Aha! Fallon the philanthropist.
Ooh.
Yeah.
That could work.
I mean, that might just check all the boxes.
I've chipped in for plenty of worthy causes over the years, it's just that none of them were mine.
They were the foundation's.
Or court-mandated.
Giving back is a great way to be more well-rounded.
I just need to find something that speaks to me, you know? Beyoncé has housing.
Bill Gates has health care.
Paul Newman had salad dressing.
What do I have? Uh Horses.
Oh, uh A hot cowboy staying at La Mirage just told me about, um, the, uh Heroic Hooves Foundation.
I do love horses.
And this place has community programs where I could really make a difference.
This could be right.
I think it is, and now I'll finally have an excuse to buy that fringe vest I've been online stalking.
This isn't about expanding my wardrobe, Sam, it's about expanding my life.
Although I'll never say no to fringe.
Hey.
Kirby.
Thanks for stopping by.
Of course.
Jeff never asks for favors, so whatever you're cooking up must be important.
Beyond.
I officially entered the Fashion Fest lineup.
But my competitors are some heavy hitters.
Usually are.
30 designers, three looks, including a showstopper, right? You do know your stuff.
The theme this year is "the divine.
" Kind of like me.
If I could win that award, the high fashion society will welcome me with open arms.
I'm loving your color story.
And the draping.
Thank you.
But I need some accessories.
Which is why I wanted you.
I remember you did that campaign with Randall Byers last year.
You wore those crystal headpieces.
Can you make an intro? I don't know, Dom.
I haven't spoken to anyone there in over a year, and I'd - rather not - If you can find a way to make an intro, I'll put you in the show.
Thanks, but no thanks.
- I don't model anymore.
- You don't? No, it's just not something I'm interested in.
You know, been there, done that.
I don't even read Vogue.
Winning this award would mean a lot to me.
I wouldn't ask if it wasn't important.
Okay, I'll call Randall.
But that's all I can do.
Okay, I owe you big-time.
Greyhound, extra grapefruit, right? Oh, did I hear you say "greyhound"? You know mixing grapefruit juice with your medication is not allowed.
Oh, my God you're right.
I totally spaced.
Mitchell just emailed me a contract to transfer Flores Inc.
back to Beto.
What the hell's going on? Wait, why did he send that to you? Well, the company's under the Carrington family trust, which means we both have to sign off on it, but more importantly, why are you trying to give the company back to Beto? Breaking ties with Beto and taking over the family business is just a lot for me.
Oh, you're just anxious.
The company's fine, it's making money.
I'm not gonna sign off on the transfer right now.
We can circle back to it in a few months.
It feels nice getting my hands dirty for a good cause.
And all while inspiring the next fashion trend.
Revival ranch.
Yeah, but I'm not sure this is the answer.
You know, I was hoping for fewer blisters and a bigger spark.
No one's gonna say, "Oh, Fallon Carrington, the one who unloads hay for charity.
" Fallon Carrington unloading hay? OMG, it is you.
Wow! Patty.
It's been forever.
Patricia de Vilbis.
Uh Fallon and I used to compete on the junior equestrian - circuit together.
- Aw, isn't that just the cutest? No, it really wasn't.
So what are you doing here? I got involved with the foundation a few years ago.
TBH, despite having it all, I still felt like something was missing.
Well, I know the feeling.
It's actually the reason why I decided to take a break from the grind of running my majorly successful company.
- Well, good on ya.
- Mm-hmm.
I really wish that I could stay and chat, but I have to finish prep for this auction.
Oh, uh, what kind of auction? You know, the kind where fancy racehorses are auctioned off to support the foundation.
It was good to see you.
Well, she's fun.
And likes to abbreviate.
So, should we head out? We can find something else that will light your fire.
I think we just did.
So, Brigitte, are you ready for the big showstopping move? Okay, let's talk this through once again.
Strut, strut, strut, hit your mark, strike a pose, release the button, jacket falls into the dress, strike another pose, slay, delay, then walk away.
Do you think maybe I could take the dress home to practice? And what about Randall's headpieces? They're here! And they're crowns, Brigitte.
Maybe you can come back tomorrow morning a little early and practice, okay? Mm-hmm.
Good night.
Oh, thank you so much for making this happen.
Isn't it amazing? Oh, Kirby, get the finale skirt.
What is it? You don't like it? No, the dress is stunning, but this tear is not.
Brigitte must have snagged it.
- What now? - I don't know.
I can't just sew it back together.
It will look terrible.
I'm going to have to get more fabric and start over.
Oh, God.
Hey, Michael.
Look, I know you're working.
I just have a quick favor to ask.
No problem.
I'm actually glad you stopped by.
I'm sorry about earlier.
I didn't realize it was Nina until it was too late to turn around.
Yeah, look, about that, Nina is actually why I'm here.
- What's the deal with you two? - We went on a bad date.
Actually it was more like half a date.
Which was more than enough time to realize that we were meant to be far apart.
Well, I'm trying to convince her to direct a movie based off my book.
But now she's not answering any of my calls or-or my texts.
Which is probably for the best.
You don't want Nina anywhere near your project.
She's stubborn and self-involved.
Yeah, right, but she's a director.
And there won't be a project without Nina.
Which is why I'm-I'm asking, as a favor can you call her and apologize? Apologize? For what? Look, I don't know.
For whatever you did.
All I know is-is that the meeting was going great until you stopped by and she saw that we were friends.
Oh, right, that's because she's also judgmental and has no manners.
Look, I helped you dodge a bullet.
You should actually be thanking me.
- I'm not gonna thank you.
- Well, I'm not going to apologize.
Tony the gardener was able to track down 30 variegated monsteras for me.
I want the penthouse to look jungle chic.
Oh.
Sure, I understood all that.
We just need to carry them out one at a time.
And by "we," I mean "you.
" Because I just got a new gel set.
Is that okay? Otherwise, I can have Tony help me.
No way.
I am good to go.
Do you not remember that I stole this house back from you? I mean, memory problems are common at your age.
I remember that you're a jackass, so I think I'm doing okay.
I'm just here because Tony procured some plants for me.
Well, you know, Tony doesn't work here on Tuesdays anymore.
So you and your paid companion can leave.
He's not an escort, you moron.
Well, at least not a paid one.
I should pay you to spend time together.
Which I now realize sounds like the plot to Pretty Woman, so forget that.
Hey, Blake.
It's Dex Dexter.
Oh Farnsworth.
Yes, it has been a while.
His father was on the board at C.
A.
back when my father was running things.
Nice to meet you.
And well done, Alexis.
Is something wrong with your wife, Blake? - More than usual, I mean.
- You know, I think she was being polite.
You're probably not used to it.
Wait.
I know.
You finally had that surgery.
The one where the doctor removes the stick from your ass.
Oh.
Do you want my doctor's info? He's a miracle worker.
Although it may take more than that to help you.
Okay.
Well, this has been fun.
I'm sure that you can find your way out.
Oh, I will.
Just as soon as Dex puts my plants in the car.
Lead me to your fertile soil.
Why is this fabric so hard to find? It's a specialty import.
I never dreamt I'd need more of it.
And we've called every store east of the Mississippi.
Fashion Fest is tomorrow, and I don't have a finale look, which means it's time to pivot.
Sure, pivot.
What do you mean by "pivot"? Pivot.
Think outside of the box.
Something different.
In all that time you modeled last year, did anything like this ever happen? I guess so.
You kind of work with what you got and roll with it.
I think I can do that.
See, this is more what I was picturing.
Well, you do blend right in.
I'm talking about the horses.
Specifically this one, wow.
Hi, girl.
Hi, Leonora.
This was such a big part of my life.
Why did I give this up? Well, you know, you grew up, matured.
Well, I'm just glad that something finally brought me back to this place.
And to you Isn't that right, girl? She's gorge, isn't she? She is perfect.
Or as you would say, perf.
What a fun surprise to see you both again.
It's like every time I turn around, there you are IRL.
Well, you better get used to it.
Because I am going to build my own stable of racehorses and support HHF with the winnings.
Starting with Leonora.
Wait, I love that.
Fallon Carrington: Mother Teresa of Horse Girls.
Hold on.
I think I just saw the guy passing the tuna tartare.
Hey.
Okay, we're alone now.
Why are you really here? I am not buying this whole emotional connection act.
It's not an act.
Leonora just sparked something in me.
Well, you obviously heard that I had my sights set on her.
I will not let you waltz back into my life and take what isn't yours.
You think I'm here because of you? - Yeah.
- Has one of these horses kicked you in the head? Because you're out of your mind.
You're out of your league if you think you're gonna win.
See you on the auction floor, bitch.
All right.
I'll see you there.
I cannot wait to kick your ass just like always.
BT-dubs.
He said we'll circle back in a few months.
We don't have that kind of time.
You can't fool them forever.
Actually, I'm starting to think I can.
The more time I spend with Blake, the more I realize he only cares about making money.
That's great, but we still need him to sign the documents.
That's why we hit him where he'll actually feel it.
I'll show him Cristal's gonna hurt the family's bottom line.
- You think that'll work? - Trust me, I know this guy now.
Fine, but don't push it too hard.
My sister's not a moron.
We don't want to make him suspicious.
No, that's okay, I think I left it up in the bedroom.
I got to go.
No.
I know it's my fault.
I just never saw the emails.
We'll make it up somehow.
What was that all about? That was a member of the Flores board.
I may have just caused the company to lose millions.
- Millions? - Yeah, there was a ticking clock on a deal, and I just never saw the emails and didn't okay it in time, so they went with someone else.
It was a stupid mistake.
But an expensive one.
I know Beto can be difficult, but the transfer really might be better for all of us in the long run.
Honey, a company like Flores can take a hit or two.
You'll settle in soon enough.
Yeah, no, no, no.
Nina just needs a few more days to work through some things.
Yeah, look, there-there's no reason to panic.
Yeah.
Yeah, will do.
Sounds like you're having a similarly awful start to your day.
At the risk of making things worse, have you seen my brother? No, it hasn't been that bad.
I just need to find Adam to amend some ridiculous Alexam requests.
Well, if you stick around, I'm sure he'll be back soon.
I mean, the guy doesn't have much of a life outside the hospital or this house.
Two places that would probably be better off without him.
You know what, as for sticking around, I'm realizing more and more that waiting for someone to make things right is just wasted energy.
Especially when I could be doing much more pleasant things.
Thanks for the reminder.
Actually, thank you.
Jay's Flowers.
Yeah, hi, I'd like to place an order, please.
- What can I get you? - Whatever arrangement you have that smells like an apology.
Patty and I were never friends.
Both of our families were in oil, we crossed paths.
And then I kicked her ass all over the equestrian ring.
And I guess she still hasn't gotten over it.
Oh, look.
Leonora is up.
Ah, ooh! Ladies and gentlemen, we'll start the bidding for the lovely Leonora at $100,000.
Do I hear $100,000? 100,000 to the back bidder.
Bidder, thank you so much.
Looking for 200 do I hear 200? 200,000.
Thank you so much.
Do I hear 300,000? 300,000 to Ms.
de Vilbis.
Thank you so much.
Got 300,000.
Do I hear 400,000? - 400! - What? What are you doing? Oh, sorry, I just got caught up in the excitement.
- Never mind.
- I'll go for 600,000.
600,000 right here, bidder, bidder! Looking for seven.
I've got 700,000! Thank you so much.
Do I hear 800,000? 800,000, bidder, bidder! Looking for nine.
- 900,000 - Uh, one million.
- $1 million, bidder, bidder - Wow, you sure do like losing to me, don't you? No, not this time, because your daddy isn't here to bribe the auctioneer like he did the competition judges.
- One million-five.
- $1.
5 million You mean like the time your dad tried to pay me to let you win the southeast regional? One-six.
Uh, one-seven.
- One-eight! - One-nine! - Two million.
- $2 million! Okay, let's remember why you're here, you know? The good cause? Your personal growth? Take it down a notch.
We have Ms.
Carrington at $2 million! - Do I hear 2.
1? - Two-one! What? No.
It was my turn.
Well, you never could keep up.
And you could never shut up.
Three million! Three-one! And done.
Ladies, please! Hold on.
While the foundation appreciates your enthusiasm and certainly your generosity, we need to maintain decorum and our schedule.
So we'll finish this sale with a single sealed bid.
All bids are due in ten minutes.
Good luck.
Oh, she's scared.
Now I just need to figure out how high to bid and which champagne to celebrate with.
You look stunning.
Is this the same outfit? It looks different.
It's the same but better.
Trust me.
Okay, the move is just like we discussed last night.
The only adjustment is, you release the button, shift, and zip down.
Uh there was no, there was no zipping before.
You can't just spring this on me.
I need time to practice.
Adversity in art creates magic.
This isn't magic, it's a zipper.
Ms.
Deveraux, one minute! Just take your time with it.
Can you help her? Maybe give her your "roll with it" pep talk? If she can't pull off this reveal, I am going to look like an amateur.
I'll try.
I don't think she's gonna be able to make it work, though.
This is a disaster.
Okay.
Coach her to walk without the transformation.
Better to be safe than embarrassed.
And now the designer of our next collection, Dominique Devereaux! Hey, did you settle on a number yet? Still working through it.
If Patty's pockets are as deep as her grudge, what makes you think she won't bid 20 million? You're right.
I should probably go in for more than I thought.
What? No, no, I was I was making a point, which you are clearly not getting.
You can give the same amount of money to HHF, walk away with ten horses, and avoid this petty pony show.
Which is why I have a suggestion.
Hey.
Fallon, meet Daniel.
He's the cowboy that suggested HHF to me.
Not sure now's the time for me to meet your new boyfriend, Sam.
I'm a horse trainer.
And Sam tells me you're starting a stable.
The truth is, Leonora's pretty to look at, but there are other horses here with more winning potential.
Well, thank you for the hot tip, Daniel, but as Sam keeps reminding me, I am here for a much larger purpose.
And that purpose involves Leonora.
Why aren't you supporting me on this? Because you're just as bad as Cruella de Vilbis over there.
And I don't want you to wake up one morning, back at work, and realize that you wasted this chance on some stupid childhood rivalry.
Okay, well, all the money will still be going to charity, so it still feeds my feel-good fund.
I am so sorry to have wasted your time.
I thought she was here because she wanted to expand her life, but, um I guess I was wrong.
You know, I was so excited when you came to me.
I decided to help because I actually believed you were interested in being someone who's more fulfilled, more well-rounded, but right now all you seem to care about is beating someone.
And you, well, you don't need my help for that.
So - Hey, there you are.
- Thanks for coming, sweetheart.
Of course.
I wouldn't miss your big moment.
Wish I could miss it.
I had to nix the big transformation, which basically kills any hope for the Plume.
Wow, this is a a whole new vibe you got going on here.
Maybe I'll just slip out the back.
Oh, come on, I'm sure it'll be Wait, what the hell? I love who I see Lookin' at me in the mirror What is she doing? She said she didn't even want to model anymore.
She's never practiced the reveal.
I love who I see Lookin' right there in the mirror In the mirror I love who I see Damn.
All right, forget divine.
That is savage.
Right there in the mirror In the mirror.
As a reminder, bidding was paused at $3.
1 million.
Ms.
de Vilbis has bid an additional $1 million, bringing the total to $4.
1 million.
A new HHF record.
Ms.
Carrington, in order to win, must bid a total of more than $4.
1 million.
Ms.
Carrington bid one dollar? Is this some kind of joke? No joke, auction guy.
Leonora is all hers for 4.
1 million.
Now onto the next horse.
I'm supposed to say that.
Congrats, Patty.
Aw, don't pout just because you were too scared to bid.
Believe it or not, this wasn't about you or winning or competition.
It was about doing something new and good for not only myself but for others.
I just forgot that for a second.
Yeah.
I don't believe you.
I'll totally get you tix when Leonora races.
Just call me whenevs.
Oh, Patty.
When I call you something, it is gonna be so much worse than "whenevs.
" $100,000.
We'll start the bidding, therefore, at $100,000.
Do I hear? Thank you again for stopping by.
I just needed to work through some stuff, but sometimes things correct themselves.
I think we should do this if you're still interested.
I will never tell.
It's called a secret ingredient for a reason.
Hey.
What are you doing here? Well, I was dropping off a birthday present for Mrs.
G.
Uh, it was great to see you.
We're just kind of in the middle of a thing here.
Of course.
I will leave you two alone.
Guys, just chill.
We're all good.
Although next time I'd prefer an apology bottle of gin over flowers.
I'm sorry.
What? I'm kidding.
It was a nice gesture.
And although I hate to admit it, your apology note was impressive.
You have a way with words.
And the lack of comprehension on your face makes me think you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Let me explain.
You sent her flowers in my name and apologized? Guess I don't have to explain.
I shouldn't have done it, I know.
I just panicked when I didn't hear back from you.
- It was stupid.
- Okay, for the record, I didn't call you back because I was trying to make sure the schedule worked.
But now none of this works.
No, no, no, please, the producers were pressuring me.
I felt like I was out of options.
And now you are.
I told you this had nothing to do with me.
What were you thinking? I guess I hadn't realized how much I wanted this until I saw it slipping away.
And after consulting with Amanda, I can't honor all of your requests.
I'm so sorry.
Of course, Amanda would agree with that.
Seems fair to me considering what you put your mother through.
I'm sorry, who are you? Oh, hey.
Dex Dexter.
I'm a friend of your mom's.
That's a great, great name.
Excuse me.
Well that went well.
Okay, just a few more stops and then we'll be done.
You like beauty stores, right? Listen, I've loved the last few days, but I got to ask What the hell is going on here? I know, I've dragged you all over town.
It's just insane.
Alexis, I feel like you're testing me, and I just don't know what I need to do to pass.
So I'm gonna go home.
Unless you want to tell me the truth.
Fine.
I'm just a little confused about this.
Us.
If it's not serious, and this is just a bucket list thing for you, I'm flattered.
And it's fine.
But I need to know.
This isn't a game for me.
You really think I like doing errands? This is real, Alexis.
But fair is fair.
And I have errands to run.
And I'd like you to join me.
- Of course.
- Problem is they're in Dubai.
So if you're okay with it, we'll fly over there and stay at my family's house for a few weeks.
Ah, it's less of a house and more of a castle, actually.
Oh, really? Well, I-I think I can handle that.
It's a plan.
Wait till you see what's on the menu.
Okay if we start with dessert? It's your special night.
I'm sorry.
I just need a minute.
Well, what is it? What can I do? Nothing.
I've just been so out of sorts.
The shooting, the campaign, running Flores Inc.
, I just feel like it's crushing me.
Ah.
Honey, I had no idea it was this hard for you.
I should have listened to you before.
I'll call the lawyers and I'll tell them to change the contract.
Blake.
Thank you.
Nothing is worth seeing you suffer.
You mean too much to me.
Thank you for your support.
I couldn't have done it without you, and even though I didn't win - You were robbed.
- Completely.
Yes, I know, but the point is, even though I didn't win, I am damn proud of my designs.
Cheers.
It's ginger ale.
And I'm hoping we can do this again in the future, if you're interested.
I know this probably wasn't easy for you.
Yeah, it wasn't easy, but your fierce attitude, in the face of all the setbacks, really inspired me.
I couldn't let you down.
I'm glad because I was panicked.
Hey, you were both impressive.
I realized just how much I missed this.
Modeling wasn't the reason for all my problems.
It was just the bad choices I made when I was doing it.
Well, I'm excited to see what's next for you.
And, Mom, you turned some serious heads today.
Randall was gushing about your looks.
There'll be more chances to baby-step into the high-end fashion club.
You're right just like you were right about NordicStar.
But I'm done taking baby steps and hoping they let me in their club.
Dominique Deveraux doesn't ask for permission.
So NordicStar is back in play? Oh, it's not only back in play.
It's the play.
That's what I like to hear.
You know you have to return that, right? Yeah, I know.
Just not yet.
Don't forget to count this.
Obviously it's for you, not the club.
Just seemed like a good way in.
Look, it's my real apology for the fake flowers and for involving you in my drama.
Well, I appreciate the gesture.
Although I do actually like flowers.
Noted.
All right, look, I should've been more up front with you, it's just I don't know, it wasn't my first instinct to share my insecurities with my wife's ex-boyfriend who has his whole life together.
Oh, trust me, there are many things in my life that are not together.
It's just difficult to watch Fallon sometimes, who's always fired up about something, when I got nothing exciting.
Well, if there's anyone who understands where you're coming from, it's me.
But that whole fake apology thing? Please do not try that on Nina again.
Wait, again? Why would I need to? 'Cause I convinced Nina to give you a second chance.
But it took a little bartering.
She mentioned her hectic schedule, so I offered the hotel as an additional location for more flexibility.
She'll be contacting your producers tonight.
I don't know what to say, man.
Just promise me you'll leave the emotional espionage to your wife because you are really not good at that.
Thank you.
I owe you big-time, all right? I promise you won't regret this.
Well, if Nina's gonna be around, I bet I will.
I saw Patty's Insta-gloat.
Your final bid was a dollar? Well, I took your advice and I walked away.
I probably should have listened to you sooner, but, you know, sometimes I can be a little stubborn.
No.
But I feel like I did walk away with some wins.
I mean, the foundation raised a record amount of money.
And I revived my love for horses.
All right, but maybe, with whatever's next, don't put so much pressure on yourself to make it happen overnight.
All right? What's the hurry? I have had more near-death experiences than the average 20-something-year-old.
I mean, what if I don't have that much time left? That's why you're concerned? I'm pretty sure nothing can kill you at this point.
No, strangely, it's not so much about the dying.
It's about what happens after.
When everyone thought I was dead, the only words used to describe me in my obituaries were "CEO, "oil heiress, beautiful.
" I mean, all true.
But not exactly anything to be proud of.
- You know you're more than that.
- Yeah, but no one else seems to know.
And the truth is, if I die, I'm not leaving the world much better than I found it.
So what are you gonna do? I need to be better.
- Big things are coming, Sam.
- And the horses? Oh, I'm absolutely still starting a stable.
In fact, I just bid on a horse that Daniel suggested Allegra.
He offered to train her for me so I could beat the hell out of Patty on the racetrack.
Oh, what? I'm not actually Mother Teresa.
Beto, wait.
What are you doing? Despite what you think, I'm not a bad person.
Yeah, just a greedy one.
Why let me free now? Oh, you're not going anywhere.
I just needed to clear the room of anything dangerous before I untied you.
I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself.
I already told you.
You can't break those glass doors.
And even if you could, you're not gonna bust through the bars anyway.
Just accept this is gonna be your home for now.
As long as you're calm, you can keep your hands free and stretch out your legs.
¿Me entendiste? Blake agreed to sign away the company.
The transfer documents will be ready in a few days.
We are one signature away from getting everything we want.
It's amazing what some lingerie can do to change a man's mind.
You're a liar.
You know Blake isn't one to be talked out of something without getting something in return.
How do you think this will play out? Once I tell the truth, the courts will reverse the transfer.
Once I'm in Mexico, I'm untouchable.
And I'll just be some hallucination your foggy mind conjured up.
Do you really think anyone is gonna believe your double delusion? Especially after that brain tumor.
Remember, behave yourself and all this will be over soon.
I find it poetic that Blake's love for his wife is the reason he's so easy to fool.
His loyalty is hot.
I'm really growing fond of the Carrington lifestyle and Blake.
Enjoy it while you can.
Because it won't last.
You won't get away with this.
I don't want to get away.
That's the point.
Who wants to disappear with a paycheck from Beto when I could live like a queen in Atlanta? All I need to do is erase you.
So the movie is a go.
I mean, I still have to write a screenplay.
And you didn't think it was a real opportunity.
I don't know.
I think I was just afraid I'd jinx it.
But now that it's finally happening, I have to admit that it feels good.
So what happened with the auction? Well, I lost the horse.
But I ended up with something much better in the end.
I'm gonna change the world.
Wow, sounds like an exciting auction.
Let's just say Patty held up a mirror, and I didn't like what I saw.
And it's up to me to change that.
Well, I am impressed.
It's a lofty goal.
But for the record, I love looking at you.
Mirror or no mirror.
It's nice that it finally feels like our futures are coming into focus.
Now that we've basically figured out the rest of our lives, we can celebrate.
Whoa.
- Where did you go? - I'm sorry.
You just, you reminded me of one more thing.
Yesterday when you woke me up, I actually was dreaming.
And I have been dreaming almost every night since my coma about our future.
Are you worried about us? Not at all.
It's just that every time, it's me, you and our children.
And I just didn't mention it because I wasn't sure how I felt about it.
- And now? - Well, and now I'm thinking if I'm going to leave the world a better place shouldn't we have an adorable family to run it? I know the last time that we talked about kids, you were hesitant.
So when you're ready to talk, I would love to reopen that conversation.
I think, um I just need some time to think.
