Dynasty s08e01 Episode Script

The Siege (1)

Last season: Fallon, I was wondering whether you and Jeff were gonna make it to Adam's wedding.
I'd love to be with all of you again, Daddy, but there's so much going on here, I'm not sure.
We'll try.
- I'm not walking out.
I'll be back.
To visit.
It's not the same thing, Steven.
It can't be.
Well, why can't you just stay? I don't care if we sleep in separate beds or separate rooms.
I don't care.
"It is hereby ordered, adjudged and decreed that this decree of adoption This decree of adoption is hereby granted and that the name of the adult involved shall remain Adam Alexander Carrington.
" I now pronounce you husband and wife.
Look in the mirror, Alexis.
Know what you'll see? A Ionely lady, a very Ionely lady, with nothing and no one in your life.
Damn you.
I don't need Blake, I don't need you, I don't need anybody.
Mr.
Dexter.
What's going on? Danny.
Mommy? Mommy.
Get your hands off my Get back.
Blake, don't, please.
My God.
Matthew.
I've come back for you, Krystle.
When are they gonna let us out of here? Matthew! Let us out of here! Matthew! Matthew! Let us out of here! Matthew! Mommy, I'm afraid.
Don't be, darling.
Everything's gonna be all right, you'll see.
Is that bad man gonna take you away? No one is gonna take your mommy away, darling.
I promise you that.
Daddy, are they gonna shoot us? No, Danny, no.
They're not.
I knew Matthew Blaisdel a long time ago when he was a good man.
He won't let them hurt us.
Steven.
I don't agree with you.
Matthew isn't the same person we used to know.
He's dangerous.
I always did like this room, Blake.
When are you gonna get out of this house? Behind bad luck comes good.
I've had the bad, but the gods are smiling on me now.
Like morning sun.
Warm, hopeful.
I asked you a question.
When are you gonna get out of this house? I chose a weekend.
No business calls.
No deals with your big-shot friends.
You always did like to spend your weekends quiet at home.
I remember that.
I remember a lot of things about you, Blake.
Are you gonna answer me, damn it? I thought I made it clear.
When I get what I need, and whenever I leave, I leave with Krystle.
You've got a short memory, Matthew.
Krystle is my wife.
You went shopping one day seven years ago and you bought her.
She was mine before that.
We were lovers before that.
And I want her back.
You're gonna have to kill me first.
If I have to.
You really think you're gonna get away with this, don't you? There's a chill in here.
Light a fire for me.
Light it yourself.
Light the fire.
So where are we going on this honeymoon of ours? You'll find out soon enough.
Anybody ever tell you that you're a sexist? Oh! You mean sexy.
I mean sexist.
I can't believe I wasn't allowed to plan my own honeymoon.
But you love surprises.
Yes, I do.
And I can tell by the sun we're heading west.
Right.
So maybe it's L.
A.
Maybe it's Shanghai.
Well, maybe I haven't packed the right clothes for either.
And maybe you're a little overdressed right now.
Adam, what about the steward? Oh, he's under strict instructions not to show his face in here.
Do you know what I'd like us to do right now? I'd like us to call home and tell everyone how happy they've made us.
I'm not stopping you.
It'll only take a few minutes.
Dana.
I can't wait a few minutes.
You've been cooperating, so I'll tell you this.
If it weren't for my people here, I'd have died in the jungle.
So I've repaid them by teaching their families better ways to grow crops, better ways to live their lives.
We all owe one another.
And I wanna make this perfectly clear.
We would die for one another if we had to.
- Where's Dex? I wanna see him.
- Maybe later.
No, I wanna see him now! He could be bleeding to death! I said later! For now you're all confined to this room.
If for some reason I want you to leave, then you'll be accompanied by one of my men.
And if any of you has any idea to escape, don't.
You're such a pretty little girl.
What's your name? - Kristina.
Kristina.
- How old are you, Kristina? - Three.
Three? - Matthew.
We've got something upstairs I think you might be interested in.
Something that might convince me to leave, that it, Blake? Well, we've got quite a bit of jewellery in our bedroom safe.
Jewellery.
It'd serve a purpose.
I'll get it for you.
No.
Krystle will.
Dad! Dad! Oh, Mr.
Carrington! Matthew, you haven't said anything about Lindsay.
Well, they tried to save her too, but she couldn't hang on.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I wo You haven't changed, Krystle.
My whole world has, but not you.
Do you know how many times I've dreamed about you? You were waiting for me at your apartment.
We'd make love and you'd say, "I've never been so happy.
" Oh, Matthew, that was a long, long time ago.
We loved each other.
I did love you.
Your kindness and your gentleness.
But I'm very happy with my life now.
I love Blake and we have a wonderful daughter that we love and adore.
Don't you see, Matthew? Everything is different.
Different? How can anything be different living with a man who steals other men's oil, other men's women? Krystle.
Don't.
Please, don't.
We were a part of each other once.
We will be again.
When we're away from this place.
Far away.
Believe me.
Well, you've got guts, Blake.
I'll give you that much.
Well, you might as well open the safe since you're here.
This is what you want.
- There's more - Hold it.
I'll just keep this, Blake.
You're Sam Dexter's son.
It's been a long time.
How is he? He's hanging in there.
I never knew him all that well, but I did know he was the only decent man on the Denver-Carrington board.
I'm sorry my people had to get rough with you.
That's the way it goes.
It's happened before.
It won't be the last time.
You feel up to a little party? I'm giving one downstairs in a while to celebrate.
The scarred wanderer's journey was nearing its end He called for a festival And all the tribes did attend - Blake? - Blake, it was a very good year.
Very good.
Krystle, please? No? Well.
- Jeannette? - No, thank you.
- No.
No, don't be shy.
Now, you've all served the Carringtons well.
Now let them serve you.
Where I've come from, we serve each other.
We earn each other's respect.
Nobody goes around buying people.
Aw.
I also think it's time you ladies got a bonus from Mr.
Carrington.
Oh, now, this is pretty.
I like that.
Please.
- I can't wear this.
- It's okay.
- Mrs.
Carrington - It's all right, Hilda.
It's all right, Hilda.
Go ahead.
Yes.
Now, that is very pretty.
And this And this is for you.
- No, please.
- Please, it's my party, I insist.
Please.
Now, see? Now, you see how pretty that looks, huh? I like that.
Oh, and look.
Look at this.
Now, does this bring back memories, Krystle? It does for me.
I was working 16 hours a day pumping my well so I wouldn't go under.
And that's exactly what Blake wanted, but not you.
So you hocked this, lent me the money I needed without anybody knowing about it.
At least not for a while.
I'd like you to wear this for me, Krystle.
Matthew, please, I don't wanna wear it.
You heard what she said.
She doesn't want it.
- You stay away from her, damn it.
- Dad, don't! That was very smart, Steven.
Very smart.
Carrington residence, can I help you? No, I'm sorry, Mr.
Carrington isn't in right now.
No, I'm not I'm not free to answer that for you.
Why don't you try calling him at his office at the first of the week? Uh-huh.
You're welcome.
That was a reporter from the Chronicle.
She wanted to know if the rumour was true, that you're being considered as a candidate for the upcoming gubernatorial primary.
You, governor, Blake? Well, I hope you live up to the expectations of whoever votes for you.
On second thought, I hope you live.
Blood pressure, 100 over 55.
Pulse, 70.
- Dr.
Bell did x-ray studies? - All negative.
Possible internal injuries with no evidence indicating any internal bleeding.
Good.
Mrs.
Colby? I'm Dr.
Wilton.
You're in Cheney Hospital.
How did I get here? As far as I understand, a friend brought you.
Friend? Oh Yes, that man.
Yes.
A very attractive man, Mrs.
Colby.
Is he here? He left a little while after you were admitted.
You need to rest now, Mrs.
Colby.
Perhaps you can phone him later.
Phone him? I don't know who he is.
He saved my life and I don't know where to find him.
Something bothering you? You not hungry tonight? How long are you gonna keep this up? Steven, how's it been going? All right.
That so? Still having trouble with the gay-bashers, the fag-haters, like your father? My father has accepted me for who and what I am.
I doubt that.
Look me in the eye and tell me I'm wrong, Steven.
You're wrong, Matthew.
I hope so.
My guess is he may allow you to carry his name, but you'll always be his embarrassment.
You think when he gets ready to hand over his empire he'll give it to his gay son? You, um, Leslie? What have they given you? What chunk of their empire? They've taken me into their home.
- Given you room and board.
- And caring.
Love.
- That's right.
You really don't know them yet, do you? Love's an easy word around here.
What they love is money and power.
Now, what I'm asking is what have they given you in terms of those? My guess is nothing.
By the way, Blake, where's Fallon? That pretty daughter of yours that could do no wrong.
At least not in your eyes.
Fallon's in California.
Mm.
That's too bad.
I was hoping she might be here for the party.
Yeah, this is Sheriff Young.
I'm out here on Diamond Back Road.
Mojave Checkpoint Number 12.
I've located Mrs.
Fallon Colby's car.
There's no sign of an accident or breakdown, but Mrs.
Colby is not with the car.
And I don't see her.
Look, send a backup, all right? Yeah, yeah, ten-four.
Mrs.
Colby? Fallon Colby! - Blake, at least it's a chance.
- It's too risky.
Besides, I can't leave you alone with him.
Blake, I'll be all right.
Please, let's try it.
Blake, I am sick and tired of your orders.
I'm your wife, not your servant.
I have never treated you as a servant.
Why did you say that? Because it's true.
And this whole discussion is just ridiculous.
What is going on here? Stay out of this.
This is between Krystle and me.
Oh, yes, we mustn't let anyone know what goes on behind sacred Carrington doors.
Well, what do you think? It's a beginning, anyway.
What are you two arguing about? Well, if he believes that Krystle and I aren't getting along, there may be a way out of this for us.
But first I've gotta get out of this house alone.
What are you thinking, Blake? I'm going to tell Matthew that I'm gonna have a Denver-Carrington jet standing by tomorrow morning to take him and his men back to Peru.
And that he can take Krystle with him as long as he leaves Kristina behind with me.
How is that gonna get you out of here? Well, he must need money.
I'll try to convince him that I can raise what he needs from my friends.
But I can't do it over the telephone.
I've gotta do it face-to-face.
If he agrees to that, I'll leave.
I'll go straight to the police and tell them what's happened.
And tell them about the plan I've got.
Now, we have got to fix a time and a spot.
Let's say the west terrace.
Now, one of you has got to tell Matthew that you want to talk something over with him out on the terrace.
And when he appears, the police will fire.
One single shot and that's it.
What do you suggest we talk over with him? You two were friends, Steven.
Think of something.
He'll trust you.
You're right, Dex.
We were friends.
I don't wanna see him killed.
Well, what do you want, then? To see the rest of us end up dead? I'll take care of Blaisdel, Blake.
Don't worry.
We're gonna go through with this plan.
We've gotta do it, son.
It's the only way.
What about his men when they hear the shot? Steven, there are two of us.
We have the advantage of surprise.
Now, all you have to do, Blake, is convince the man to let you go.
I will.
I've got to.
Well, have you thought it over? You'd let me take Krystle? - Yes.
- You're sure? You saw what happened in there.
We're having problems.
And I guess I've always known it was you she really loved.
Just let me have my little girl.
You know what it means to a man to have a child, Matthew.
Yes.
Yes, I know.
Call your pilot.
Hello, Jim, Mr.
Carrington.
I need you to fly the big jet down to Peru sometime tomorrow morning.
I want you to park the plane down at the far end of the field when you go aboard.
Well, this is important.
I don't want the competition to know that the plane is on its way down to South America.
Yes.
Yes, I know it's not gonna be easy, but I want it done.
Oh, by the way, Mrs.
Carrington will be joining my associates on the flight.
Right.
Good night, Jim.
Sounded a little annoyed.
Well, I pay him a lot to put up with little annoyances.
- About the money you mentioned - Now, if you don't want it What I want is for you to be back here by 8 a.
m.
Sharp.
That should give you time to wake up your big-shot buddies and get the money.
Oh, Blake.
You forgot something.
Your escort.
Mrs.
Colby, if there's anything you need, I can get it.
- I have to get out of here.
- It's the middle of the night.
Dr.
Wilton said you could have a concussion.
And you're still suffering from shock.
Look, nurse, a man saved my life.
- I have to find him.
- I know, but you're in no con I wouldn't be standing here arguing with you if it weren't for him.
- I'd be at the bottom of the river.
- Mrs.
Colby Where's my wife? Well, we don't know.
She called in on her car phone to say that she got stuck out here on Diamond Back Road.
Then the phone went dead for a few minutes.
You know, we've searched everywhere ever since I got here.
But so far, there's just There's just no sign of your wife.
It's as if she - She what? - Disappeared.
Disappeared? What are you talking about? Where's she gonna go? There's not many places to hide.
Well, I know, but Well, maybe your deputies haven't searched hard enough.
I'm sorry.
Oh, God.
Fallon.
Fallon.
Fallon, it's me, Jeff.
Fallon.
Why did you send me up here? Blake, what's gonna happen to us? All right, mister, out of the car.
Out of the car.
Give me that gun.
You are under arrest.
Good.
Get me down to headquarters as fast as you can.
I told you, the man had a gun on me.
Now, my family's being held hostage right now.
I wanna talk to Fred McHenry.
All right, the chief's on his way down from Aspen.
He should be here soon.
We're doing everything we can, Mr.
Carrington.
You gonna track a man in the country, lady, you don't wear big-city perfume.
Well, I'll remember that.
I really wanted to find you because I hadn't thanked you for saving my life.
And now that's remedied.
And you're welcome.
Heh.
I didn't know there were any cabins around here.
You lived here for long? I don't live here.
- Oh, you're on vacation? - Something like that.
Well, I don't mean to intrude, but I am very grateful.
How did you find me? I went back to the river and I asked one of the rangers where you lived.
I described you and he pointed me this direction.
Well, this wood isn't gonna chop itself, so Hm.
Well, happy chopping.
By the way, my name is Alexis Colby.
And again, thank you.
I know your name, Mrs.
Colby.
And you're welcome again.
Hi.
What were you just thinking about? About how much I love Danny and Steven.
And how I'm afraid we're all gonna be Dead before all this is through? I don't know where Uncle Blake went or what he's up to, but someone has got to do something about this.
They have guns here, Leslie.
I know.
And I'm gonna get my hands on one of them.
- Don't worry about me.
- I am worried.
Sammy Jo, what have I got to lose by trying after all I've been through? God, I've lost my father, Clay.
I've lost everything.
You have two very special guys in your life.
You hang on to that.
Hi.
Sure is hot this morning, isn't it? Want some? You're so far away from home, you must be very, very Ionely.
You don't have to be anymore.
Don't do that again.
Is that understood? Now, these men have come here with me on a mission.
They've sacrificed a lot.
They left their families.
- Don't take advantage of their decency.
- You let go of me! I don't have to do a damn thing.
Sex is obviously some kind of plaything to you.
These men have never met women like you.
Anathu, that's enough.
Maybe I shouldn't have trusted you at all.
Then Dexter decided that the best thing to do would be to lure him out onto the west terrace.
There, that's the west terrace, chief.
And right there, that's where Blaisdel has gotta be picked off at 7:45 this morning.
Doesn't give us much time.
Think SWAT can handle it, Art? May I see that, Mr.
Carrington? In full morning light, even if he's blocked by these columns, he's bound to give us a clear shot if only for a matter of couple of seconds.
With three of my best men there, we'll hit him, chief.
No problem.
What could have happened? Obviously Dexter couldn't pull it off.
We're gonna have to go in.
No way, chief.
If there's something wrong, let me go in there first.
Alone.
My family is in there.
I don't want you to go in shooting.
Now, I can handle Blaisdel.
I think I can.
All right, but if you're not out in exactly three minutes, we're coming in.
Krystle! Steven! Krystle! Where is everybody?
