Dynasty (2017) s05e22 Episode Script
Catch 22
1
Sorry!
Whoa!
And
time.
Three minutes faster than last time.
Better, but still room for improvement.
Did you really rent out the
hospital room until my due date?
I know we're not inducing
you until next week,
but now that you broke up with Adam,
we have time to decorate.
So, head on in there,
take a look around,
and tell me if there's
anything else you need.
Are you all good?
- Hmm?
- You seem a little tense.
Is the Fallon Unlimited board
still trying to oust you?
Yes. Ellen and her minions
are trying to take my office,
my company,
and my baby's legacy away from me.
- They vote tomorrow.
- And you don't have a majority?
No, because the board is still upset
over the whole Morell catastrophe,
so now, I have to come up with a way
to get them to change their votes,
but if I can't,
then I'll just have to figure out
some other way to get them to stop. Hi.
Did you have the ceiling above the bed
painted to look like the night sky?
I did. I thought it would be calming,
but if you don't like it,
we can easily change
it to a Sistine Chapel
kind of thing.
No? What, too much?
Finally going to live on your
yacht like you've always wanted?
The yacht has a name. Freedom.
And no, I'm going to the site
of the downed plane
to join the extraction
team and look for Dex
- and the others.
- What?
The plane's comms were fried,
probably by a lightning strike.
They landed hundreds of miles
off course and probably went
looking for help on foot.
That's an optimistic theory,
but even if you're right,
you will be more useful here
helping me deal with the fallout
instead of playing Rescue Ranger.
Well, contrary to whoever
died and made you queen,
PPA is still my company.
And I've already told everyone
who needs to know what happened,
and they've promised me 48
hours to find their loved ones
before going public for help,
so I'm leaving.
You didn't tell everyone.
Blake.
Have you heard anything?
Did you make contact yet?
We're doing everything we can.
I guess you told her.
I thought she deserved to know.
That my husband could be dead?
Yes, I deserve to know.
I was going to tell you, all right?
The plane landed somewhere
in the Appalachian Mountains.
I'm joining the extraction team now,
they have everything under control.
If they haven't extracted Dex,
they have nothing under control.
I'm going with you,
and if you try to stop me, I will
leak the story of your airline's failure
to every network,
paper and podcast, so help me God.
Fine. There's a car waiting out front.
Wheels up in 20 minutes.
Now, I need to finish packing.
How's the L.A. house-hunting going?
It's going.
I found a nice listing near the beach,
but according to Nina,
it's not the "right" beach.
- So
- Well, that's bad for you,
great for me, since you'll be here
to deal with the jazz night lineup,
and there are a few other club issues
I need to talk to you about.
When you move,
we're gonna have to set up
a dedicated weekly FaceTime
to go over everything.
Whoa, whoa.
When I said I was leaving Atlanta,
I thought you understood that meant
leaving the hotel as well.
No. I did not understand that.
And I can't afford to buy you out.
I've lined up a handful
of potential investors to take my place.
I'm meeting with them this afternoon.
Well, shouldn't I be involved in
picking who you're selling to?
I mean, what if this person
wants to change the decor
to shabby chic or play
country music at the club?
Relax.
They'll only be a minority shareholder.
A real silent partner, unlike me.
But you should sit in if you want to.
Don't worry, I will sit in.
You shouldn't have just
shown up like that.
No, I know. You're right. I
I made a mistake.
I just, I wanted
some time to talk with you.
Well, now you have it, so you can start
by telling me why
you're here in Atlanta.
I came here to apologize for my
past behavior. I did some very bad
things to you to protect my job,
to protect my now ex-wife.
Wait, you and Sandra
aren't together anymore?
No.
We've divorced, but I regret my actions.
I was selfish. I'm here to make amends.
Look, you don't need to make amends.
I'm not some name on a list
that you need to check off.
Okay? And don't they have
phones in the U.K. anymore?
I also wanted to see you,
so that I could give you this.
It's a job offer
from a top London firm.
I pulled some strings
to have them consider you,
and now, they're very interested.
Look, I didn't ask for a job.
I have one.
Right. Working on
malpractice suits and employment
contracts at a hospital.
This job will put you back
on the career path you've always wanted.
I know you, Amanda.
You might have left,
but that doesn't mean
you lost your ambition.
Just read it over,
and then I won't bother
you about it again.
Hey.
Do you know how to loosen a pipe?
Oh, wow. Is this the book cover?
- Seems to be.
- And it has your name on it.
Hm. How uncomfortable
does that make you feel?
I told you, I did a rewrite.
But, yeah, I let this get too far.
The book's not out yet.
It's not too late to come clean.
No, it is too late.
How would I even explain this, Sam?
I mean, plus,
Kingston's nephew's blackmailing his way
to a condo and a big payday.
So, what are you gonna do?
I'm gonna give him what he wants.
- Get rid of him.
- Then what?
Book signings, press tours, sequels?
The Liam I know won't be
able to live with that.
Graham? What-what are we doing here?
What's going on?
You haven't figured it out yet?
What is it you want?
If you need money, I can get you
I don't want your money, Adam.
Then what?
I want revenge.
We've searched roughly 70% of the area.
Still no trace of anyone.
Plus, we have
a massive storm cell moving in,
and we'll have to call
the team back soon.
Unacceptable.
You're not calling anybody back
until you find my husband.
- How much time do we have?
- A couple of hours.
We've examined the topography
and narrowed it down
to the two most likely areas
we believe they could be,
but there's no way we have
enough time to search both.
Okay, let's go to Site F.
This isn't pin the tail
on the plane crash, Blake.
Do you even know what
you're talking about?
Any pilot knows, if you have
to leave the aircraft,
you head to higher ground
for optimum visibility.
Site F is a hill.
That's where they would've gone.
And what if Dex isn't with the pilot?
What if they split up?
Well, I can't guarantee anything,
but this is our best plan of attack.
You're just gonna have to trust me.
When has that ever worked out?
Well, listen,
the longer we wait around here,
the less likely we are find them alive.
Okay.
Let's go. And, yes, I'm coming with you.
Steven?
Th-This is crazy.
It's a lot to process, isn't it?
It was for me, too,
once I started to remember everything.
You know, how you
convinced me and the family
that I'd lost my mind
and had me institutionalized.
And then you paid off a nurse
to feed me a steady drip of drugs,
while you basically took my place.
Look, I have no idea
what you're talking about.
Oh.
Maybe you stop talking and just listen.
Lucky for me,
the sanitarium burned down.
Not so lucky for the nurse
on your payroll, who died.
I made it out with just a few burns.
Oh, that is kind of lucky for you.
Shut up.
Once the drugs wore off,
it was like the clouds parted.
I went to the dead nurse's house,
and I found all the letters
sent to me from Fallon,
from Blake,
from Sam that she'd intercepted,
along with the checks that
you'd been sending her.
Yeah. You're not gonna talk your way
out of this one, George.
Uh, what what are you gonna do?
What I've been dreaming about doing
since I realized what you'd done to me.
Steve Steven, wait.
Let's, uh, let's talk about this.
No, no, no, no, don't
Graham, are you in there?
Coming.
Yes, sorry,
just doing a little inventory.
Mrs. Carrington needs you
- right away.
- Of course, I'll be right there.
Uh, ask the staff not to come in here.
There are some rodents inside
that need to be taken care of.
How do you know it was
Plenexia behind this?
Gemma told me. I caught her
at the gym and she confessed.
You caught her at the gym?
Yep.
Apparently, that's the one
thing she didn't lie about.
I guess she felt
guilty enough to tell
me that Richard Payne
is trying to decode the
solar tech she stole from me.
And use it for what?
Release the designs to the public.
Poetic payback for what I did
to him and his medication.
And, look,
before you ask me to stop,
I know exactly what I'm doing here.
I have no intention
of asking you to stop.
Okay, isn't this when you
usually tell me to walk away?
Normally, yes.
But not when someone
plays with my son's heart.
These people have gone too far.
Thank you.
Like I said, I don't have a ton of time,
and right now, I'm not having a
ton of success getting in, so,
I just need to keep at it.
Does this mean you're too busy
to help me save my company?
Because I'm about to lose
Fallon Unlimited for good,
unless I can get the board to back me.
Look, I wish I could help,
but your board won't listen to me,
and I have my own company
to save at the moment.
I'm sure you'll figure it out,
though, right?
Well, I'm glad you're sure.
Maybe I can help.
- Really?
- That's what family is for, right?
Occasionally, but
I am desperate enough
right now to be interested.
Great. Then I quit my FSN show,
effective immediately.
As far as a return on investment,
La Mirage is a safe bet.
Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Jones, uh,
pipe burst in 428.
Uh, leaked down to the room below.
Water everywhere.
Uh, just thought you should know.
- Thank you, Manny.
- Okay, that is not a common
occurrence here. So,
as I was saying
Janice? Is everything okay?
Actually, no.
I can't deal with the bedbugs.
The guests are complaining,
and I don't blame them.
If this isn't taken care of,
I'm leaving, for good.
Okay, nothing like this has ever
happened here before. It will be fixed.
This hotel is spotless.
Manny? What's going on?
Oh, yeah, just another grease fire.
Oh.
Okay, maybe we can use the water
from the broken pipe
to put out that fire.
Sorry.
Seems like you need a demolition crew
more than an investor.
I'm out.
Gentlemen.
That is the third investor
meeting that you've tanked.
Me? I didn't start the grease fire.
Maybe not, Billy Joel,
but you clearly organized all of this.
Most of this ground seems undisturbed.
I don't think anyone has been here.
We don't know that for sure.
I think we can be reasonably certain.
So, if they're here,
they must be at the other site.
Let's go look there.
I'm afraid we're out of time, ma'am.
The storm's nearly here.
We have to head back.
We can resume the search
once the storm passes.
No, absolutely not.
We can't just leave him out there.
He could die.
Alexis, he's right, we have to go back.
No. You go back.
I'm going to find Dex.
It's the only reason I'm out here,
and I am not giving up.
Alexis!
Sorry, Mr. Carrington,
I won't send my team into danger.
We're heading back to the camp,
and I suggest you do the same.
Back to the camp!
Well, how was it?
Did she get you flowers?
Did she seduce you with
all her fancy judge words?
Okay, first of all, no one is seduced
at 11:00 in the morning,
and that's not why she's here.
Oh, so she just had to stop by
on the way back to her flat in London?
She actually came to
give me a job offer.
Okay,
so what's so special about this job?
It's an associate solicitor
spot at a good firm.
Look at it.
She could've just emailed you,
or even FaceTimed.
She's only here for one reason,
and that's to win you back.
Okay, why am I reading this?
I don't understand
that legal mumbo jumbo.
Besides, I saw the way you looked at her
when she grabbed your hand.
I'm sorry, were you spying on me?
N-No.
Okay, yes, I was there,
but only because I was nervous.
I mean, we just had a conversation
about how you want to have
a more serious relationship
and maybe kids someday,
and then this woman comes back into
your life who has all of
those mature qualities
that you're looking for.
Look, there was a time
where I thought Florence
was the one, okay?
And, yeah, maybe being around her
brought some of those old feelings up,
but, right now,
the only thing I'm feeling is
sadness that you don't trust me.
Now, where were we?
Any last words?
Yeah,
you're not gonna get away with this.
Um, they're-they're
gonna be looking for me.
Please.
I think we both know that's not true.
Why did you even come back?
You know they've
forgotten all about you.
They've moved on.
You-You're not even a real Carrington.
Enough.
You couldn't just stay away, could you?
I have waited for this for so long.
Me, too.
It's what you deserve,
but you're not gonna make me a murderer.
Now, get out of here.
I don't ever want to
see your face again.
Look, if you put my solar tech
out into the world,
I will take you down.
You seem like a reasonable guy.
Can't you see that this makes us even?
Uh, this will cost me
billions of dollars,
and I only released your drug
because your price
fixing killed my friend.
So, no,
this does not make us even.
Look,
I am releasing your solar tech.
I have to show the world
that people can't mess with my business.
If you retaliate, so will I.
But I have the resources.
So there's nothing you can do about it.
You know, you're right. There, um,
there is nothing I can do about it.
Have a good day.
Well, then,
switch it out if you need to.
I want my surrogate to be enveloped
by classical music,
and I don't want my baby
being born into poor sound quality.
Now, let's talk video capability.
I'm gonna have to call you back.
Ellen.
I was wondering when you'd stop by.
I just heard a rumor Dominique
Deveraux is leaving FSN.
You did?
Yeah. I'm pretty certain you
engineered the whole thing.
Me? But why would I do
something so bad for business?
Probably because you think
wooing Dom-Mystique back to FSN
will give you leverage with the board,
which you need if you're
going to get the votes.
Oh. Well,
that does sound like a good plan.
It would be, but ever since
Alexam left and sales dropped,
the board has contemplated
shutting down FSN.
And now, with Dominique leaving, well,
the decision's much easier.
So, thank you.
Well, you're not welcome,
and this isn't over.
No, but it will be tomorrow
at the board meeting.
- Hello?
- Sorry, we're closed.
Graham.
Hey. The Carringtons
let you out for the day?
Yeah, things are a little slow.
Well, we can be open
for our new majordomo.
What can I get you?
Uh, if it's not a problem,
I'll have a Mai Tai with lime.
That's funny,
that's what my ex-husband used to get.
Hmm.
Always cheers me up.
I think it's the little umbrella.
Well, maybe I should try that
because vodka isn't doing the job.
You know, when alcohol fails,
sometimes talking helps.
Or even better, a combo of the two.
And I'm a great listener.
Tiny umbrella for your thoughts?
My friend is moving away,
and I've been acting like an idiot
trying to keep him here.
I guess I feel like
everyone I care about
eventually abandons me, including my ex.
And now I'm turning into a
crazy person who is all alone.
You're not crazy.
And you're not alone.
- Holy
- Hi, Sam.
Steven?
Is it really you,
or have I completely lost my mind?
If you have, then I have, too,
because it's me, and I'm here.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, I can't believe this.
So you never saw any
of these letters from us?
No.
The nurse took them before
they even got to me.
And you didn't send any of
those other letters telling us
to leave you alone and
never contact you again?
No. That was all Adam.
I am not normally a vengeful person,
but if Adam were here right now,
I would kill him.
I get it, I do.
But he's gone.
Forever.
This is
- Surreal?
- It's Yes.
I know.
Part of me wonders if I'm
still in that hospital bed,
and I've finally gone insane.
No.
It's real.
And I've missed you so much.
So, um what now?
I just need a little
time to figure it out.
Of course.
You have no idea
how happy I am to see you.
I'm pretty sure I do.
Okay, now what?
"Now what" what?
How can you just sit here eating
like everything is fine
when I just heard Plenexia
released your solar tech
and your other projects?
They did release the solar research,
I couldn't stop that in time, but
I'm the one who put all the
other information out there.
Okay, I'm going to need a drink.
And there'll be even more tomorrow.
Bunch of ideas I was gonna patent.
I'm just gonna release
them on a public server.
And before you ask,
I know exactly what I'm doing.
Well, that makes one of us.
You need to explain. Pass the plantains.
It was actually Richard
Payne who gave me the idea.
I asked myself,
what's the worst thing that could happen
if the tech gets released?
It dawned on me.
Open source lets other
people use my work,
fix it, and improve it.
And you can hire some of these bright,
young minds
to build Colby Co. back up even faster.
- Exactly.
- So, finally,
you're listening to me
and not getting caught up
in petty rivalries. You're welcome.
Okay, okay,
is that how you're gonna spin this?
I'm good, right?
The best.
Hey. To family.
To family.
There's no one here.
We need to turn back.
So go. No one is keeping you here.
Alexis, be reasonable.
I know you love Dex,
but we can't find him if we're dead.
You don't care about Dex.
All you care about
is your stupid airline
and your reputation.
Listen to me.
Despite how much pain
we've caused each other,
whether you like it or not,
we're family,
and I don't want to see you die up here.
I'm not leaving, Blake.
I can't live without him.
Dex!
Dex!
We need to talk, Judge.
It's actually Right
Honorable Lady Justice.
Whatever it is,
you need to go back to London
and stop messing with my
relationship with Amanda.
Is that what you think I'm doing here?
Of course.
You had your chance, and you hurt her.
And I won't let you just come back here,
manipulate her,
and break her heart again.
I can't lose her.
You're right about one thing.
I had my chance,
but I promise you I am
not trying to interfere
with your relationship.
It really is about this job offer.
Right. You just had to fly
all the way here and tell her about it?
This job is everything
Amanda has ever wanted.
She could become a partner
in just a few years,
which would be a stepping
stone to becoming
a deputy district judge,
which is what she's dreamed
of since I've known her.
But, hey,
what do I know?
Maybe she's changed since she met you.
Dex!
Dex, can you hear me?
- Alexis?
- Dex?
- Dex!
- Alexis!
You're alive.
Rick, we found them.
I thought there was no way
anyone was still looking for us.
I would never stop searching.
You are everything to me.
That's good, Graham.
You know,
my brother used to practice that one
all the time when we were kids.
Don't freak out.
It's really me, Fallon.
I can see that.
But I don't believe it.
I mean,
I feel like I'm looking at a ghost.
Well, I'm alive.
And I'm fine, I promise.
But how
I had a mask made.
I've been pretending to be Graham
while I sorted a few things out.
And, you know,
made sure the family hadn't
forgotten about me completely.
Are you kidding?
I think about you every day.
I tried to make you proud
every single day. We all did.
But your letters, Steven
I know.
It's a long story.
But that problem has been taken care of.
Your real brother is back.
- Wait a minute. This was Adam?
- Yeah.
You and I have years to make up for.
Let's not waste time talking about him.
I still can't believe it's real.
Well, maybe this'll help.
You ask how much I need you ♪
Must I explain? ♪
I need you, oh, my darling ♪
Like roses need rain ♪
You ask how long I'll love you ♪
I'll tell you ♪
True ♪
Until the twelfth of never ♪
I'll still ♪
Be loving ♪
You ♪
Hey! I, uh,
hate to interrupt whatever this is,
but the baby's coming early.
Yeah, we got to go.
Um
Okay.
I will tell him about you later.
It appears your niece is
in a rush to meet you.
Okay. Just remember
to breathe and stay calm.
Don't drop her baby bag!
- What is going on here?
- We're having a baby,
and we need to get to
the hospital right now.
Okay, I'll drive.
Everybody in the Rolls.
No babies born in the Aston Martin.
Oh, one last Carrington ride
to bring in the new generation.
That's kind of poetic.
We don't really have time for poetry.
- We need to go, okay? The clock is running.
- Oh, oh.
Right.
Move out of the way, jackass.
There must be a huge
accident up there somewhere.
Ugh! Why do bad things happen to me?!
I mean, obviously,
I hope everybody's okay.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. I know how this goes,
which is, uh, faster with every baby.
She's coming soon.
Can you slow the contractions
down somehow? Liam,
tell her a story to take her
mind off the contractions.
- I don't have a story.
- Well, then, make one up.
I can't just make up a story on command.
I'm not a story machine.
What are you talking about?
You are an author who's about to
publish his second bestseller.
Of course you can make up a story.
I didn't write that book, okay?
It was my professor's,
and I took it after he died,
and I thought I could make it my own,
but then everything just
got so out of control.
I wasn't even going to turn it in,
but then you seemed so impressed,
and I just wanted to be successful.
But I don't want my baby born
thinking her father's a fraud.
I want my daughter to be proud of me.
Hey, listen to me.
You don't need to prove anything to me.
I don't love you because
you're a great writer, Liam.
I love you because
you're a great husband,
and I know that you're going
to be an amazing father.
That may be sooner rather than later.
Uh, the GPS says
this is the fastest route,
but it keeps getting longer.
It could take 30 minutes.
I don't think we have that much time.
Okay, we got to get back to the manor.
Fallon, call the doctor.
Yeah. We'll chopper her in from
the hospital. I'll have Steve
I'll have
I'll have Graham get her room ready.
Okay, everybody hold on.
We're turning around.
I'm worried.
I know there was a huge storm out there.
But you're about to
become a grandfather.
Please, come home soon.
Basically, we took a 35-minute drive
to end up back where we started.
She's been in labor ever since.
- That's crazy.
- Mm-hmm.
And, uh, speaking of crazy,
I think I was sabotaging
those investor interviews
because I didn't want you to leave.
Yes, I'm well aware.
But then, I realized that it has
nothing to do with La Mirage.
I don't care that I'm
losing my business partner.
- Okay.
- I'm upset that I'm losing my life partner
so to speak.
But you're not really losing me.
It won't be the same, Michael.
I mean, you've been my wall
to bounce things off of,
my advice giver,
and my emotional support
throughout everything.
You mean your friend.
Well, anyone can have a friend.
Not everyone can have a Culhane.
I'm going to miss you, big bro.
I'm gonna miss you, too, little bro.
Oh, sorry.
I was just gonna go check if
Uh, nope, no baby yet.
Ah.
I'm sorry that I spied on you,
but I'm not sorry that
I spoke to Florence.
You did? And you're not?
She told me what a big deal the job is.
Which you didn't.
I don't understand why.
Because I don't know what to do.
This job is all I've ever wanted.
But I'm nervous to go back to London,
and I'm nervous to leave you. Okay?
That's why I didn't tell you.
Because I want to be with
the person that I love.
I love you, too.
Which is why you need to take the job.
If you don't, you'll regret it forever.
And you'll definitely resent me.
Well, but where does that leave us?
Honestly
I don't know.
But I'm not gonna be
the one who stops you
from going after what you want.
Blake. Thank God.
Why didn't you call me back?
I'm sorry. It was a crazy 24 hours,
but everyone's okay.
You have no idea how
happy I am to hear that.
You have no idea how
happy I am to see you.
I'm so sorry for the way I acted.
You mean everything to me.
And when I saw Alexis and Dex,
I started thinking
what if it was you that
was lost out there?
You're the one thing in this world
that I can't bear to lose.
I feel the same way about you.
Am I late? Did I miss it?
Oh, God, I wish I'd missed that.
Alexis,
I'm almost glad you didn't die alone
in a remote forest.
- Mm.
- How's Dex?
He's doing well,
recovering in the hospital.
But I didn't want to miss the
birth of my granddaughter.
Make way.
Where is that new majordomo?
I need a drink.
He'll be here soon. Don't worry.
Who's ready to meet the
newest member of the family?
Everyone, say hello
to Lauren Morell Carrington.
- Ridley.
- Oh, yes, Ridley.
We couldn't have done this without you.
Obviously.
It takes a village.
And you three have a big,
crazy village here
that you can always count on.
- It's amazing.
- Thank you. And you're right.
Stacey just gave me a great idea.
- We need to have a family meeting.
- Now?
Yes. And since it's a
true family meeting,
everybody should be here.
And there's one more on the way.
Please don't tell me she had twins.
Look who's finally come back to us.
Hi.
Steven.
Wait, that's Steven?
That's really my brother?
Yeah. Mine, too.
But you and I are not related,
as far as I know.
Sorry to interrupt,
but there will be plenty of time
for reunions and explanations.
I still need to save my company.
The board voted. It's over.
Well, that's funny, because I talked to
the other members of the board,
and they've accepted my offer
to buy all the shareholder stock
at double the current price.
Not even you could afford that.
No, but if you combine all
of my family's holdings,
our net worth is pretty stunning.
And we can overpay for the stock.
It takes a village.
That doesn't even make financial sense.
Once the sale goes through,
Fallon Unlimited will go
back to being a private,
family-owned business.
Oh, and you're fired, obviously.
- No, you can't do this.
- Well, she just did.
You mess with one Carrington,
you mess with them all.
You see, Lauren?
That is the face you
want your enemies to make
after you've destroyed them.
I don't think I've ever been prouder.
And I'm so happy my
granddaughter got to see
the creation of her family legacy.
- To the future.
- And whatever it holds.
- You missed lunch.
- I know. My meeting with
the new publisher went long.
But they loved my pitch,
and they think that
"Lauren's School for Ghouls"
can be an entire book series for kids.
Investigative journalism, a movie,
and now a children's book series?
Is there anything you can't do?
Other than have lunch, obviously.
Cute. But I did bring you a present.
Oh, Liam, you know I don't
enjoy reading for pleasure.
It's Professor Kingston's book.
They're finally releasing it
after I straightened everything out.
With a foreword by Liam Ridley.
Presales are great,
and the best part is,
Kingston gets all the credit.
No, the best part is I only
have to read the foreword.
I just left my
granddaughter down the hall.
She may be the smartest six-month-old,
well, ever.
We agree. In fact, I'll go
get her from the nanny because
- We should probably get home.
- Yes.
So, I have decided
I'm renaming the company,
and I want you to be the first to know.
I thought we discussed this.
Fallon Unlimited already
has brand recognition.
This is how dynasties are ruined.
No, this is how new dynasties are born.
It's our family legacy,
and it should be reflected in the name.
Obviously, none of this would
be possible without you.
You helped me save my company,
you made me the person I am today,
you taught me everything
I know about business,
and half the time I didn't
even know you were teaching me.
Well, I'm like Mr. Miyagi.
Yeah, sure.
The point is,
we're all in this together,
for better or for worse.
Well, I am not gonna lie, I love it.
And I love you.
And speaking of
"for better or for worse,"
we should get home for the big day.
- Are you nervous?
- No.
I've done this before, remember?
But this is different.
Well, I'm totally prepared.
Sam, I lost the ring.
Where's the ring?
I can't get married without the ring.
You just said "ring" a lot.
You didn't lose the ring.
You gave it to me so
you wouldn't lose it.
Oh
Wait, I think I lost it.
- Are you kidding me?
- Yes! Oh my God.
You can't take a joke right now.
I think it's time to get you a drink.
Check our room.
I don't know where I left it.
There he is. Looking good, man.
I think I might throw up.
You'll be all right.
Do you really have to leave tomorrow?
I'm meeting Kevin in New York
and I wanted all of us to have dinner.
I have to leave first
thing in the morning.
And I don't want to
intrude on you and your
little bodyguard anyway.
You know he hasn't been my
bodyguard for six months.
He's too busy doing other
things with my body.
Okay, yeah, gross.
Now I'm gonna throw up.
Fine, we'll do it when you get back.
So, releasing all of that tech online
turned out to be a good idea, didn't it?
Indeed. Taking Colby Co. global
was the best decision I ever made.
And setting up headquarters in Nigeria?
It's like a dream.
Can you believe how far we've come?
And I don't just mean professionally.
I'm proud of you.
And I'm, uh, pretty excited about
my flagship store opening on
Bleeker Street in New York.
- Mm-hmm.
- Did somebody say Bleecker Street?
Yes. Stop eavesdropping.
And why?
Dex and I bought a building
on Bleecker Street.
It's going to be Alexam's first store.
What are the odds?
Yeah. Somehow
doesn't seem like a coincidence.
'Cause it's not.
Don't you have a husband
around here to bother
- instead of me?
- He's out of the country
on a very important business trip.
Shame you couldn't join him.
I see you've squeezed
into another frock meant
- for someone half your age.
- Okay
And I see you're wearing
your finest cubic zirconia
for the occasion.
Never ends.
Oh, my God.
I didn't know if you were really coming.
Well, here I am.
- How are you?
- I'm good.
I mean, work's been great.
A lot of big cases.
I think I'm gonna make
partner in a year.
Wow!
That's amazing. You must be so happy.
Yeah. Yeah, I guess so.
What about you?
Have you been keeping busy?
Okay, this is stupid.
We're talking about work?
I know we said it would be easier
if we made a clean break, but
I have thought about you every day
for the last six months,
and I'm not gonna
pretend that I haven't.
Well, you have to say something.
I'm scared to say something, Kirby,
because nothing's changed.
That's where you're wrong.
I thought I couldn't
imagine leaving Atlanta
and my whole life behind,
but I realized my life isn't
whole without you in it.
So I need to change that.
Do you really mean that?
How would you feel if I
came to visit you in London
for a little while?
You could show me around and
we can have dinner and I
Is that a yes?
That's a yes.
Fancy meeting you here.
There is nowhere I'd rather be.
Good, 'cause you're stuck with me.
Yes!
Hey, not yet, you two.
Control yourselves.
Welcome to the latecomers.
Sorry.
We're here now. Please proceed.
Okay.
"I knew the first time
I saw Liam and Fallon,
they were meant to be." Oh.
Wait a second.
Wrong wedding speech. Sorry about that.
Friends, family, plus-ones,
we're gathered here today
to celebrate the union
of Michael Culhane and Nina Fournier.
This evening not only
marks the beginning
of your commitment to one another,
but serves as a
celebration and declaration
of the love you share.
Today you embark on a new life together,
built on the foundations of trust,
compassion and a love for good cinema.
Michael,
do you take Nina to be your wife,
for better or worse,
till death do you part?
I do.
Nina, do you take Michael
to be your husband
for better or worse,
till death do you part?
I do.
Then by the power vested in me,
And before I start crying,
you may kiss the bride.
- And you may kiss the groom.
- Amen!
Dr. Kerlan,
I didn't know you were here already.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Some days I like to start early.
No, no, it's quite all right.
I'll get to know you better soon enough.
Indeed you will.
You know,
I'm really starting to like London.
After my last job,
I thought about a career change,
but, you know, old habits.
Well, your first patient is here
early if you want to see her.
Mrs. Thatcher.
Ah, yes. Send her in.
Ah. Hello, Mrs. Thatcher.
How are you doing, luv?
Now, what's wrong with you today?
Swallowed another toy mouse, have you?
Time for the family photo.
Do you think now that it's
called Carrington United,
you and I could make a play for co-CEOs?
I mean, Fallon's clearly got
other things on her mind.
Can we at least wait a few days
before we stage another coup?
Maybe I'll start a skin-care line
and put it in my new store.
I heard that. Good luck.
You know, if you two buy all
the real estate in between,
you can open up one giant megastore
with a designer boxing
ring in the middle.
I'd pay to see that.
Hey, if I come visit you in London,
are you gonna teach me all
the weird English words
- that you say?
- Oh, yeah.
I'll even buy you your
own English dictionary.
Aw
Do you think Fallon would be open to
my taking over her foundation?
Absolutely. Just as long as you realize
she'll still be in charge of everything.
Okay, okay, everybody be quiet
so we can take this photo.
It is so nice to be home.
Now, smile and pretend
you love each other.
Say "Carrington."
Carrington!
Farewell, Carringtons!!
Sorry!
Whoa!
And
time.
Three minutes faster than last time.
Better, but still room for improvement.
Did you really rent out the
hospital room until my due date?
I know we're not inducing
you until next week,
but now that you broke up with Adam,
we have time to decorate.
So, head on in there,
take a look around,
and tell me if there's
anything else you need.
Are you all good?
- Hmm?
- You seem a little tense.
Is the Fallon Unlimited board
still trying to oust you?
Yes. Ellen and her minions
are trying to take my office,
my company,
and my baby's legacy away from me.
- They vote tomorrow.
- And you don't have a majority?
No, because the board is still upset
over the whole Morell catastrophe,
so now, I have to come up with a way
to get them to change their votes,
but if I can't,
then I'll just have to figure out
some other way to get them to stop. Hi.
Did you have the ceiling above the bed
painted to look like the night sky?
I did. I thought it would be calming,
but if you don't like it,
we can easily change
it to a Sistine Chapel
kind of thing.
No? What, too much?
Finally going to live on your
yacht like you've always wanted?
The yacht has a name. Freedom.
And no, I'm going to the site
of the downed plane
to join the extraction
team and look for Dex
- and the others.
- What?
The plane's comms were fried,
probably by a lightning strike.
They landed hundreds of miles
off course and probably went
looking for help on foot.
That's an optimistic theory,
but even if you're right,
you will be more useful here
helping me deal with the fallout
instead of playing Rescue Ranger.
Well, contrary to whoever
died and made you queen,
PPA is still my company.
And I've already told everyone
who needs to know what happened,
and they've promised me 48
hours to find their loved ones
before going public for help,
so I'm leaving.
You didn't tell everyone.
Blake.
Have you heard anything?
Did you make contact yet?
We're doing everything we can.
I guess you told her.
I thought she deserved to know.
That my husband could be dead?
Yes, I deserve to know.
I was going to tell you, all right?
The plane landed somewhere
in the Appalachian Mountains.
I'm joining the extraction team now,
they have everything under control.
If they haven't extracted Dex,
they have nothing under control.
I'm going with you,
and if you try to stop me, I will
leak the story of your airline's failure
to every network,
paper and podcast, so help me God.
Fine. There's a car waiting out front.
Wheels up in 20 minutes.
Now, I need to finish packing.
How's the L.A. house-hunting going?
It's going.
I found a nice listing near the beach,
but according to Nina,
it's not the "right" beach.
- So
- Well, that's bad for you,
great for me, since you'll be here
to deal with the jazz night lineup,
and there are a few other club issues
I need to talk to you about.
When you move,
we're gonna have to set up
a dedicated weekly FaceTime
to go over everything.
Whoa, whoa.
When I said I was leaving Atlanta,
I thought you understood that meant
leaving the hotel as well.
No. I did not understand that.
And I can't afford to buy you out.
I've lined up a handful
of potential investors to take my place.
I'm meeting with them this afternoon.
Well, shouldn't I be involved in
picking who you're selling to?
I mean, what if this person
wants to change the decor
to shabby chic or play
country music at the club?
Relax.
They'll only be a minority shareholder.
A real silent partner, unlike me.
But you should sit in if you want to.
Don't worry, I will sit in.
You shouldn't have just
shown up like that.
No, I know. You're right. I
I made a mistake.
I just, I wanted
some time to talk with you.
Well, now you have it, so you can start
by telling me why
you're here in Atlanta.
I came here to apologize for my
past behavior. I did some very bad
things to you to protect my job,
to protect my now ex-wife.
Wait, you and Sandra
aren't together anymore?
No.
We've divorced, but I regret my actions.
I was selfish. I'm here to make amends.
Look, you don't need to make amends.
I'm not some name on a list
that you need to check off.
Okay? And don't they have
phones in the U.K. anymore?
I also wanted to see you,
so that I could give you this.
It's a job offer
from a top London firm.
I pulled some strings
to have them consider you,
and now, they're very interested.
Look, I didn't ask for a job.
I have one.
Right. Working on
malpractice suits and employment
contracts at a hospital.
This job will put you back
on the career path you've always wanted.
I know you, Amanda.
You might have left,
but that doesn't mean
you lost your ambition.
Just read it over,
and then I won't bother
you about it again.
Hey.
Do you know how to loosen a pipe?
Oh, wow. Is this the book cover?
- Seems to be.
- And it has your name on it.
Hm. How uncomfortable
does that make you feel?
I told you, I did a rewrite.
But, yeah, I let this get too far.
The book's not out yet.
It's not too late to come clean.
No, it is too late.
How would I even explain this, Sam?
I mean, plus,
Kingston's nephew's blackmailing his way
to a condo and a big payday.
So, what are you gonna do?
I'm gonna give him what he wants.
- Get rid of him.
- Then what?
Book signings, press tours, sequels?
The Liam I know won't be
able to live with that.
Graham? What-what are we doing here?
What's going on?
You haven't figured it out yet?
What is it you want?
If you need money, I can get you
I don't want your money, Adam.
Then what?
I want revenge.
We've searched roughly 70% of the area.
Still no trace of anyone.
Plus, we have
a massive storm cell moving in,
and we'll have to call
the team back soon.
Unacceptable.
You're not calling anybody back
until you find my husband.
- How much time do we have?
- A couple of hours.
We've examined the topography
and narrowed it down
to the two most likely areas
we believe they could be,
but there's no way we have
enough time to search both.
Okay, let's go to Site F.
This isn't pin the tail
on the plane crash, Blake.
Do you even know what
you're talking about?
Any pilot knows, if you have
to leave the aircraft,
you head to higher ground
for optimum visibility.
Site F is a hill.
That's where they would've gone.
And what if Dex isn't with the pilot?
What if they split up?
Well, I can't guarantee anything,
but this is our best plan of attack.
You're just gonna have to trust me.
When has that ever worked out?
Well, listen,
the longer we wait around here,
the less likely we are find them alive.
Okay.
Let's go. And, yes, I'm coming with you.
Steven?
Th-This is crazy.
It's a lot to process, isn't it?
It was for me, too,
once I started to remember everything.
You know, how you
convinced me and the family
that I'd lost my mind
and had me institutionalized.
And then you paid off a nurse
to feed me a steady drip of drugs,
while you basically took my place.
Look, I have no idea
what you're talking about.
Oh.
Maybe you stop talking and just listen.
Lucky for me,
the sanitarium burned down.
Not so lucky for the nurse
on your payroll, who died.
I made it out with just a few burns.
Oh, that is kind of lucky for you.
Shut up.
Once the drugs wore off,
it was like the clouds parted.
I went to the dead nurse's house,
and I found all the letters
sent to me from Fallon,
from Blake,
from Sam that she'd intercepted,
along with the checks that
you'd been sending her.
Yeah. You're not gonna talk your way
out of this one, George.
Uh, what what are you gonna do?
What I've been dreaming about doing
since I realized what you'd done to me.
Steve Steven, wait.
Let's, uh, let's talk about this.
No, no, no, no, don't
Graham, are you in there?
Coming.
Yes, sorry,
just doing a little inventory.
Mrs. Carrington needs you
- right away.
- Of course, I'll be right there.
Uh, ask the staff not to come in here.
There are some rodents inside
that need to be taken care of.
How do you know it was
Plenexia behind this?
Gemma told me. I caught her
at the gym and she confessed.
You caught her at the gym?
Yep.
Apparently, that's the one
thing she didn't lie about.
I guess she felt
guilty enough to tell
me that Richard Payne
is trying to decode the
solar tech she stole from me.
And use it for what?
Release the designs to the public.
Poetic payback for what I did
to him and his medication.
And, look,
before you ask me to stop,
I know exactly what I'm doing here.
I have no intention
of asking you to stop.
Okay, isn't this when you
usually tell me to walk away?
Normally, yes.
But not when someone
plays with my son's heart.
These people have gone too far.
Thank you.
Like I said, I don't have a ton of time,
and right now, I'm not having a
ton of success getting in, so,
I just need to keep at it.
Does this mean you're too busy
to help me save my company?
Because I'm about to lose
Fallon Unlimited for good,
unless I can get the board to back me.
Look, I wish I could help,
but your board won't listen to me,
and I have my own company
to save at the moment.
I'm sure you'll figure it out,
though, right?
Well, I'm glad you're sure.
Maybe I can help.
- Really?
- That's what family is for, right?
Occasionally, but
I am desperate enough
right now to be interested.
Great. Then I quit my FSN show,
effective immediately.
As far as a return on investment,
La Mirage is a safe bet.
Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Jones, uh,
pipe burst in 428.
Uh, leaked down to the room below.
Water everywhere.
Uh, just thought you should know.
- Thank you, Manny.
- Okay, that is not a common
occurrence here. So,
as I was saying
Janice? Is everything okay?
Actually, no.
I can't deal with the bedbugs.
The guests are complaining,
and I don't blame them.
If this isn't taken care of,
I'm leaving, for good.
Okay, nothing like this has ever
happened here before. It will be fixed.
This hotel is spotless.
Manny? What's going on?
Oh, yeah, just another grease fire.
Oh.
Okay, maybe we can use the water
from the broken pipe
to put out that fire.
Sorry.
Seems like you need a demolition crew
more than an investor.
I'm out.
Gentlemen.
That is the third investor
meeting that you've tanked.
Me? I didn't start the grease fire.
Maybe not, Billy Joel,
but you clearly organized all of this.
Most of this ground seems undisturbed.
I don't think anyone has been here.
We don't know that for sure.
I think we can be reasonably certain.
So, if they're here,
they must be at the other site.
Let's go look there.
I'm afraid we're out of time, ma'am.
The storm's nearly here.
We have to head back.
We can resume the search
once the storm passes.
No, absolutely not.
We can't just leave him out there.
He could die.
Alexis, he's right, we have to go back.
No. You go back.
I'm going to find Dex.
It's the only reason I'm out here,
and I am not giving up.
Alexis!
Sorry, Mr. Carrington,
I won't send my team into danger.
We're heading back to the camp,
and I suggest you do the same.
Back to the camp!
Well, how was it?
Did she get you flowers?
Did she seduce you with
all her fancy judge words?
Okay, first of all, no one is seduced
at 11:00 in the morning,
and that's not why she's here.
Oh, so she just had to stop by
on the way back to her flat in London?
She actually came to
give me a job offer.
Okay,
so what's so special about this job?
It's an associate solicitor
spot at a good firm.
Look at it.
She could've just emailed you,
or even FaceTimed.
She's only here for one reason,
and that's to win you back.
Okay, why am I reading this?
I don't understand
that legal mumbo jumbo.
Besides, I saw the way you looked at her
when she grabbed your hand.
I'm sorry, were you spying on me?
N-No.
Okay, yes, I was there,
but only because I was nervous.
I mean, we just had a conversation
about how you want to have
a more serious relationship
and maybe kids someday,
and then this woman comes back into
your life who has all of
those mature qualities
that you're looking for.
Look, there was a time
where I thought Florence
was the one, okay?
And, yeah, maybe being around her
brought some of those old feelings up,
but, right now,
the only thing I'm feeling is
sadness that you don't trust me.
Now, where were we?
Any last words?
Yeah,
you're not gonna get away with this.
Um, they're-they're
gonna be looking for me.
Please.
I think we both know that's not true.
Why did you even come back?
You know they've
forgotten all about you.
They've moved on.
You-You're not even a real Carrington.
Enough.
You couldn't just stay away, could you?
I have waited for this for so long.
Me, too.
It's what you deserve,
but you're not gonna make me a murderer.
Now, get out of here.
I don't ever want to
see your face again.
Look, if you put my solar tech
out into the world,
I will take you down.
You seem like a reasonable guy.
Can't you see that this makes us even?
Uh, this will cost me
billions of dollars,
and I only released your drug
because your price
fixing killed my friend.
So, no,
this does not make us even.
Look,
I am releasing your solar tech.
I have to show the world
that people can't mess with my business.
If you retaliate, so will I.
But I have the resources.
So there's nothing you can do about it.
You know, you're right. There, um,
there is nothing I can do about it.
Have a good day.
Well, then,
switch it out if you need to.
I want my surrogate to be enveloped
by classical music,
and I don't want my baby
being born into poor sound quality.
Now, let's talk video capability.
I'm gonna have to call you back.
Ellen.
I was wondering when you'd stop by.
I just heard a rumor Dominique
Deveraux is leaving FSN.
You did?
Yeah. I'm pretty certain you
engineered the whole thing.
Me? But why would I do
something so bad for business?
Probably because you think
wooing Dom-Mystique back to FSN
will give you leverage with the board,
which you need if you're
going to get the votes.
Oh. Well,
that does sound like a good plan.
It would be, but ever since
Alexam left and sales dropped,
the board has contemplated
shutting down FSN.
And now, with Dominique leaving, well,
the decision's much easier.
So, thank you.
Well, you're not welcome,
and this isn't over.
No, but it will be tomorrow
at the board meeting.
- Hello?
- Sorry, we're closed.
Graham.
Hey. The Carringtons
let you out for the day?
Yeah, things are a little slow.
Well, we can be open
for our new majordomo.
What can I get you?
Uh, if it's not a problem,
I'll have a Mai Tai with lime.
That's funny,
that's what my ex-husband used to get.
Hmm.
Always cheers me up.
I think it's the little umbrella.
Well, maybe I should try that
because vodka isn't doing the job.
You know, when alcohol fails,
sometimes talking helps.
Or even better, a combo of the two.
And I'm a great listener.
Tiny umbrella for your thoughts?
My friend is moving away,
and I've been acting like an idiot
trying to keep him here.
I guess I feel like
everyone I care about
eventually abandons me, including my ex.
And now I'm turning into a
crazy person who is all alone.
You're not crazy.
And you're not alone.
- Holy
- Hi, Sam.
Steven?
Is it really you,
or have I completely lost my mind?
If you have, then I have, too,
because it's me, and I'm here.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, I can't believe this.
So you never saw any
of these letters from us?
No.
The nurse took them before
they even got to me.
And you didn't send any of
those other letters telling us
to leave you alone and
never contact you again?
No. That was all Adam.
I am not normally a vengeful person,
but if Adam were here right now,
I would kill him.
I get it, I do.
But he's gone.
Forever.
This is
- Surreal?
- It's Yes.
I know.
Part of me wonders if I'm
still in that hospital bed,
and I've finally gone insane.
No.
It's real.
And I've missed you so much.
So, um what now?
I just need a little
time to figure it out.
Of course.
You have no idea
how happy I am to see you.
I'm pretty sure I do.
Okay, now what?
"Now what" what?
How can you just sit here eating
like everything is fine
when I just heard Plenexia
released your solar tech
and your other projects?
They did release the solar research,
I couldn't stop that in time, but
I'm the one who put all the
other information out there.
Okay, I'm going to need a drink.
And there'll be even more tomorrow.
Bunch of ideas I was gonna patent.
I'm just gonna release
them on a public server.
And before you ask,
I know exactly what I'm doing.
Well, that makes one of us.
You need to explain. Pass the plantains.
It was actually Richard
Payne who gave me the idea.
I asked myself,
what's the worst thing that could happen
if the tech gets released?
It dawned on me.
Open source lets other
people use my work,
fix it, and improve it.
And you can hire some of these bright,
young minds
to build Colby Co. back up even faster.
- Exactly.
- So, finally,
you're listening to me
and not getting caught up
in petty rivalries. You're welcome.
Okay, okay,
is that how you're gonna spin this?
I'm good, right?
The best.
Hey. To family.
To family.
There's no one here.
We need to turn back.
So go. No one is keeping you here.
Alexis, be reasonable.
I know you love Dex,
but we can't find him if we're dead.
You don't care about Dex.
All you care about
is your stupid airline
and your reputation.
Listen to me.
Despite how much pain
we've caused each other,
whether you like it or not,
we're family,
and I don't want to see you die up here.
I'm not leaving, Blake.
I can't live without him.
Dex!
Dex!
We need to talk, Judge.
It's actually Right
Honorable Lady Justice.
Whatever it is,
you need to go back to London
and stop messing with my
relationship with Amanda.
Is that what you think I'm doing here?
Of course.
You had your chance, and you hurt her.
And I won't let you just come back here,
manipulate her,
and break her heart again.
I can't lose her.
You're right about one thing.
I had my chance,
but I promise you I am
not trying to interfere
with your relationship.
It really is about this job offer.
Right. You just had to fly
all the way here and tell her about it?
This job is everything
Amanda has ever wanted.
She could become a partner
in just a few years,
which would be a stepping
stone to becoming
a deputy district judge,
which is what she's dreamed
of since I've known her.
But, hey,
what do I know?
Maybe she's changed since she met you.
Dex!
Dex, can you hear me?
- Alexis?
- Dex?
- Dex!
- Alexis!
You're alive.
Rick, we found them.
I thought there was no way
anyone was still looking for us.
I would never stop searching.
You are everything to me.
That's good, Graham.
You know,
my brother used to practice that one
all the time when we were kids.
Don't freak out.
It's really me, Fallon.
I can see that.
But I don't believe it.
I mean,
I feel like I'm looking at a ghost.
Well, I'm alive.
And I'm fine, I promise.
But how
I had a mask made.
I've been pretending to be Graham
while I sorted a few things out.
And, you know,
made sure the family hadn't
forgotten about me completely.
Are you kidding?
I think about you every day.
I tried to make you proud
every single day. We all did.
But your letters, Steven
I know.
It's a long story.
But that problem has been taken care of.
Your real brother is back.
- Wait a minute. This was Adam?
- Yeah.
You and I have years to make up for.
Let's not waste time talking about him.
I still can't believe it's real.
Well, maybe this'll help.
You ask how much I need you ♪
Must I explain? ♪
I need you, oh, my darling ♪
Like roses need rain ♪
You ask how long I'll love you ♪
I'll tell you ♪
True ♪
Until the twelfth of never ♪
I'll still ♪
Be loving ♪
You ♪
Hey! I, uh,
hate to interrupt whatever this is,
but the baby's coming early.
Yeah, we got to go.
Um
Okay.
I will tell him about you later.
It appears your niece is
in a rush to meet you.
Okay. Just remember
to breathe and stay calm.
Don't drop her baby bag!
- What is going on here?
- We're having a baby,
and we need to get to
the hospital right now.
Okay, I'll drive.
Everybody in the Rolls.
No babies born in the Aston Martin.
Oh, one last Carrington ride
to bring in the new generation.
That's kind of poetic.
We don't really have time for poetry.
- We need to go, okay? The clock is running.
- Oh, oh.
Right.
Move out of the way, jackass.
There must be a huge
accident up there somewhere.
Ugh! Why do bad things happen to me?!
I mean, obviously,
I hope everybody's okay.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. I know how this goes,
which is, uh, faster with every baby.
She's coming soon.
Can you slow the contractions
down somehow? Liam,
tell her a story to take her
mind off the contractions.
- I don't have a story.
- Well, then, make one up.
I can't just make up a story on command.
I'm not a story machine.
What are you talking about?
You are an author who's about to
publish his second bestseller.
Of course you can make up a story.
I didn't write that book, okay?
It was my professor's,
and I took it after he died,
and I thought I could make it my own,
but then everything just
got so out of control.
I wasn't even going to turn it in,
but then you seemed so impressed,
and I just wanted to be successful.
But I don't want my baby born
thinking her father's a fraud.
I want my daughter to be proud of me.
Hey, listen to me.
You don't need to prove anything to me.
I don't love you because
you're a great writer, Liam.
I love you because
you're a great husband,
and I know that you're going
to be an amazing father.
That may be sooner rather than later.
Uh, the GPS says
this is the fastest route,
but it keeps getting longer.
It could take 30 minutes.
I don't think we have that much time.
Okay, we got to get back to the manor.
Fallon, call the doctor.
Yeah. We'll chopper her in from
the hospital. I'll have Steve
I'll have
I'll have Graham get her room ready.
Okay, everybody hold on.
We're turning around.
I'm worried.
I know there was a huge storm out there.
But you're about to
become a grandfather.
Please, come home soon.
Basically, we took a 35-minute drive
to end up back where we started.
She's been in labor ever since.
- That's crazy.
- Mm-hmm.
And, uh, speaking of crazy,
I think I was sabotaging
those investor interviews
because I didn't want you to leave.
Yes, I'm well aware.
But then, I realized that it has
nothing to do with La Mirage.
I don't care that I'm
losing my business partner.
- Okay.
- I'm upset that I'm losing my life partner
so to speak.
But you're not really losing me.
It won't be the same, Michael.
I mean, you've been my wall
to bounce things off of,
my advice giver,
and my emotional support
throughout everything.
You mean your friend.
Well, anyone can have a friend.
Not everyone can have a Culhane.
I'm going to miss you, big bro.
I'm gonna miss you, too, little bro.
Oh, sorry.
I was just gonna go check if
Uh, nope, no baby yet.
Ah.
I'm sorry that I spied on you,
but I'm not sorry that
I spoke to Florence.
You did? And you're not?
She told me what a big deal the job is.
Which you didn't.
I don't understand why.
Because I don't know what to do.
This job is all I've ever wanted.
But I'm nervous to go back to London,
and I'm nervous to leave you. Okay?
That's why I didn't tell you.
Because I want to be with
the person that I love.
I love you, too.
Which is why you need to take the job.
If you don't, you'll regret it forever.
And you'll definitely resent me.
Well, but where does that leave us?
Honestly
I don't know.
But I'm not gonna be
the one who stops you
from going after what you want.
Blake. Thank God.
Why didn't you call me back?
I'm sorry. It was a crazy 24 hours,
but everyone's okay.
You have no idea how
happy I am to hear that.
You have no idea how
happy I am to see you.
I'm so sorry for the way I acted.
You mean everything to me.
And when I saw Alexis and Dex,
I started thinking
what if it was you that
was lost out there?
You're the one thing in this world
that I can't bear to lose.
I feel the same way about you.
Am I late? Did I miss it?
Oh, God, I wish I'd missed that.
Alexis,
I'm almost glad you didn't die alone
in a remote forest.
- Mm.
- How's Dex?
He's doing well,
recovering in the hospital.
But I didn't want to miss the
birth of my granddaughter.
Make way.
Where is that new majordomo?
I need a drink.
He'll be here soon. Don't worry.
Who's ready to meet the
newest member of the family?
Everyone, say hello
to Lauren Morell Carrington.
- Ridley.
- Oh, yes, Ridley.
We couldn't have done this without you.
Obviously.
It takes a village.
And you three have a big,
crazy village here
that you can always count on.
- It's amazing.
- Thank you. And you're right.
Stacey just gave me a great idea.
- We need to have a family meeting.
- Now?
Yes. And since it's a
true family meeting,
everybody should be here.
And there's one more on the way.
Please don't tell me she had twins.
Look who's finally come back to us.
Hi.
Steven.
Wait, that's Steven?
That's really my brother?
Yeah. Mine, too.
But you and I are not related,
as far as I know.
Sorry to interrupt,
but there will be plenty of time
for reunions and explanations.
I still need to save my company.
The board voted. It's over.
Well, that's funny, because I talked to
the other members of the board,
and they've accepted my offer
to buy all the shareholder stock
at double the current price.
Not even you could afford that.
No, but if you combine all
of my family's holdings,
our net worth is pretty stunning.
And we can overpay for the stock.
It takes a village.
That doesn't even make financial sense.
Once the sale goes through,
Fallon Unlimited will go
back to being a private,
family-owned business.
Oh, and you're fired, obviously.
- No, you can't do this.
- Well, she just did.
You mess with one Carrington,
you mess with them all.
You see, Lauren?
That is the face you
want your enemies to make
after you've destroyed them.
I don't think I've ever been prouder.
And I'm so happy my
granddaughter got to see
the creation of her family legacy.
- To the future.
- And whatever it holds.
- You missed lunch.
- I know. My meeting with
the new publisher went long.
But they loved my pitch,
and they think that
"Lauren's School for Ghouls"
can be an entire book series for kids.
Investigative journalism, a movie,
and now a children's book series?
Is there anything you can't do?
Other than have lunch, obviously.
Cute. But I did bring you a present.
Oh, Liam, you know I don't
enjoy reading for pleasure.
It's Professor Kingston's book.
They're finally releasing it
after I straightened everything out.
With a foreword by Liam Ridley.
Presales are great,
and the best part is,
Kingston gets all the credit.
No, the best part is I only
have to read the foreword.
I just left my
granddaughter down the hall.
She may be the smartest six-month-old,
well, ever.
We agree. In fact, I'll go
get her from the nanny because
- We should probably get home.
- Yes.
So, I have decided
I'm renaming the company,
and I want you to be the first to know.
I thought we discussed this.
Fallon Unlimited already
has brand recognition.
This is how dynasties are ruined.
No, this is how new dynasties are born.
It's our family legacy,
and it should be reflected in the name.
Obviously, none of this would
be possible without you.
You helped me save my company,
you made me the person I am today,
you taught me everything
I know about business,
and half the time I didn't
even know you were teaching me.
Well, I'm like Mr. Miyagi.
Yeah, sure.
The point is,
we're all in this together,
for better or for worse.
Well, I am not gonna lie, I love it.
And I love you.
And speaking of
"for better or for worse,"
we should get home for the big day.
- Are you nervous?
- No.
I've done this before, remember?
But this is different.
Well, I'm totally prepared.
Sam, I lost the ring.
Where's the ring?
I can't get married without the ring.
You just said "ring" a lot.
You didn't lose the ring.
You gave it to me so
you wouldn't lose it.
Oh
Wait, I think I lost it.
- Are you kidding me?
- Yes! Oh my God.
You can't take a joke right now.
I think it's time to get you a drink.
Check our room.
I don't know where I left it.
There he is. Looking good, man.
I think I might throw up.
You'll be all right.
Do you really have to leave tomorrow?
I'm meeting Kevin in New York
and I wanted all of us to have dinner.
I have to leave first
thing in the morning.
And I don't want to
intrude on you and your
little bodyguard anyway.
You know he hasn't been my
bodyguard for six months.
He's too busy doing other
things with my body.
Okay, yeah, gross.
Now I'm gonna throw up.
Fine, we'll do it when you get back.
So, releasing all of that tech online
turned out to be a good idea, didn't it?
Indeed. Taking Colby Co. global
was the best decision I ever made.
And setting up headquarters in Nigeria?
It's like a dream.
Can you believe how far we've come?
And I don't just mean professionally.
I'm proud of you.
And I'm, uh, pretty excited about
my flagship store opening on
Bleeker Street in New York.
- Mm-hmm.
- Did somebody say Bleecker Street?
Yes. Stop eavesdropping.
And why?
Dex and I bought a building
on Bleecker Street.
It's going to be Alexam's first store.
What are the odds?
Yeah. Somehow
doesn't seem like a coincidence.
'Cause it's not.
Don't you have a husband
around here to bother
- instead of me?
- He's out of the country
on a very important business trip.
Shame you couldn't join him.
I see you've squeezed
into another frock meant
- for someone half your age.
- Okay
And I see you're wearing
your finest cubic zirconia
for the occasion.
Never ends.
Oh, my God.
I didn't know if you were really coming.
Well, here I am.
- How are you?
- I'm good.
I mean, work's been great.
A lot of big cases.
I think I'm gonna make
partner in a year.
Wow!
That's amazing. You must be so happy.
Yeah. Yeah, I guess so.
What about you?
Have you been keeping busy?
Okay, this is stupid.
We're talking about work?
I know we said it would be easier
if we made a clean break, but
I have thought about you every day
for the last six months,
and I'm not gonna
pretend that I haven't.
Well, you have to say something.
I'm scared to say something, Kirby,
because nothing's changed.
That's where you're wrong.
I thought I couldn't
imagine leaving Atlanta
and my whole life behind,
but I realized my life isn't
whole without you in it.
So I need to change that.
Do you really mean that?
How would you feel if I
came to visit you in London
for a little while?
You could show me around and
we can have dinner and I
Is that a yes?
That's a yes.
Fancy meeting you here.
There is nowhere I'd rather be.
Good, 'cause you're stuck with me.
Yes!
Hey, not yet, you two.
Control yourselves.
Welcome to the latecomers.
Sorry.
We're here now. Please proceed.
Okay.
"I knew the first time
I saw Liam and Fallon,
they were meant to be." Oh.
Wait a second.
Wrong wedding speech. Sorry about that.
Friends, family, plus-ones,
we're gathered here today
to celebrate the union
of Michael Culhane and Nina Fournier.
This evening not only
marks the beginning
of your commitment to one another,
but serves as a
celebration and declaration
of the love you share.
Today you embark on a new life together,
built on the foundations of trust,
compassion and a love for good cinema.
Michael,
do you take Nina to be your wife,
for better or worse,
till death do you part?
I do.
Nina, do you take Michael
to be your husband
for better or worse,
till death do you part?
I do.
Then by the power vested in me,
And before I start crying,
you may kiss the bride.
- And you may kiss the groom.
- Amen!
Dr. Kerlan,
I didn't know you were here already.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Some days I like to start early.
No, no, it's quite all right.
I'll get to know you better soon enough.
Indeed you will.
You know,
I'm really starting to like London.
After my last job,
I thought about a career change,
but, you know, old habits.
Well, your first patient is here
early if you want to see her.
Mrs. Thatcher.
Ah, yes. Send her in.
Ah. Hello, Mrs. Thatcher.
How are you doing, luv?
Now, what's wrong with you today?
Swallowed another toy mouse, have you?
Time for the family photo.
Do you think now that it's
called Carrington United,
you and I could make a play for co-CEOs?
I mean, Fallon's clearly got
other things on her mind.
Can we at least wait a few days
before we stage another coup?
Maybe I'll start a skin-care line
and put it in my new store.
I heard that. Good luck.
You know, if you two buy all
the real estate in between,
you can open up one giant megastore
with a designer boxing
ring in the middle.
I'd pay to see that.
Hey, if I come visit you in London,
are you gonna teach me all
the weird English words
- that you say?
- Oh, yeah.
I'll even buy you your
own English dictionary.
Aw
Do you think Fallon would be open to
my taking over her foundation?
Absolutely. Just as long as you realize
she'll still be in charge of everything.
Okay, okay, everybody be quiet
so we can take this photo.
It is so nice to be home.
Now, smile and pretend
you love each other.
Say "Carrington."
Carrington!
Farewell, Carringtons!!
