Dynasty s08e02 Episode Script

The Siege (2)

Last time on Dynasty: I really wanted to find you because I hadn't thanked you for saving my life.
Well, now that's remedied.
And you're welcome.
My name is Alexis Colby.
And again, thank you.
I know your name, Mrs.
Colby.
My God.
Fallon.
Fallon.
Fallon, it's me, Jeff.
I asked you a question.
When are you gonna get out of this house? Whenever I leave, I leave with Krystle.
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.
Krystle.
No, don't.
Please, don't.
- You stay away for her, damn it.
- Dad, don't! That was very smart, Steven.
Sex is obviously some kind of plaything to you.
These men have never met women like you.
All right, mister, out of the car.
- You are under arrest.
- Good.
Get me down to headquarters as fast as you can.
If there's something wrong, let me go in there first.
Alone.
All right, but if you're not out in exactly three minutes, we're coming in.
Steven! Krystle! Where is everybody? My God, where's he taken my family? Where are they? Take it easy, Blake.
We'll get them back.
Yes? It's for you, chief.
Chief McHenry.
Right.
Good.
Stay on it.
No sign of Blaisdel or the others at any of the airports.
I don't think he'd hijack a plane, but you can never tell.
Chief, two station wagons and a town car are missing.
We need the licence numbers.
There's a ledger in the main garage, top drawer.
Check it out and issue APBs.
All major roads and highways.
Right.
Oh, and, chief, we've located two security men in the greenhouse.
They're both dead.
Sir, we just found someone out on the grounds.
He's been shot, he's unconscious, and he's losing blood fast.
Any idea who it is? ID indicates he's a man named Dexter.
Ambulance is on its way.
Dex.
Where are you taking us, Matthew? You'll find out.
I asked you to drive alone with me, Steven, so I could tell you about this place your father never allowed you to know.
Where's that? It's a good place where there's no war, no greed.
I'd like you to come there with Krystle and me.
How can you talk about a good place when a little while ago I saw you give an order to shoot a man in cold blood? I did him a favour, Steven.
His soul has been released.
Think about it, coming with me.
You're a Carrington, but you're not really one of them, you never were.
Think about your future.
I think right now we ought to talk about the present.
And you, Matthew.
You're in trouble.
I know you didn't intend to go this far, but you're in too deep to get out.
Maybe.
Maybe not.
We'll see.
Matthew, stop the cars.
Let everybody go.
If you're afraid of what will happen, keep me as a hostage.
You know my father will help you get away if you're holding me.
I don't need his help, Steven.
I don't need anybody's help.
Oh, doctor, how is Dexter? We removed the bullet, Mr.
Carrington.
We need to talk to him.
He might be able to tell us what happened at the Carringtons'.
Yes, I've got to find out what's happened to my family.
I'm sorry, Mr.
Carrington, you can't talk to him yet.
Mr.
Dexter's lost quite a bit of blood.
He's unconscious.
I'll let you know as soon as he comes to.
- Well, how long do you think it'll be? - An hour or so.
Maybe even less.
I'm sorry to disturb your Sunday, Mr.
Hess, but I do need your help.
Yeah, I heard about your filching that car at the wedding, then wrecking half a county bridge before you went into the drink.
So if you want my help finagling you out of that little mess I'm clearing that up with the authorities first thing in the morning.
What I want from you is to find out everything you can about the man who saved my life.
- I assume he has a name.
- That's just the problem.
I don't know his name, but this is where he lives.
Uh, why don't we forget it? Every time I get involved with you, I end up in nothing but trouble.
You also end up with money.
Lots and lots of money.
Yeah, well, sometimes the bucks just aren't that important.
I see.
All right, I'll just have to find someone else.
Hey, Mrs.
Colby, are you all right? You know, I get the feeling that this is a personal thing.
An affair of the heart? It's surely not one of your usual dirty-linen jobs.
That is none of your business, Mr.
Hess, but, yes, it is personal.
Well, you're a romantic after all.
Well, aren't we all in one way or another? Well, you may not know it from our past dealings, but I'm a romantic too.
A real softie.
So Okay, I'll do it.
Thank you, Mr.
Hess.
I appreciate that.
And I'd like that report on my desk as soon as possible.
Hi there.
Jeff.
Who else? We're at the first aid station.
You've been out of it for a while.
But you're gonna be all right, so I don't want you to be frightened of anything.
- I'm not frightened.
- Good.
What's that? Just the wind, sand.
You're still out in the desert.
Where your car went out, remember? I remember.
What happened? It was getting dark.
Then I got out of my car when I saw Saw what? - It's hard to describe.
- Go ahead and try.
It was so strange.
It was as if As if I was being drawn towards it.
And then Then what? Nothing.
Oh, I'm so tired.
I think I need to sleep a little while longer.
Doctor.
Is my wife going to be okay? She's very lucky, Mr.
Colby.
Considering what you said, she walked miles from her car.
And yet she seems to have suffered nothing more than fatigue.
It's remarkable.
Blaisdel.
He began to get rough with Leslie.
- I tried to stop him.
- Yeah.
Yes, and then what happened? I tried to run for it.
To get help.
And the next thing I knew, there was a shot.
I was losing consciousness.
But I heard Blaisdel say that everything was going wrong.
Anybody else get hurt? Krystle, the children, anyone? No.
I don't think so.
But Blaisdel said: "We've got to get the others out of here.
" Did he say where? Something about terrain.
Rugged terrain.
Now, take it easy.
Now, take your time.
Then he said I think he said: "LB.
" L.
B.
My grandson? I don't know.
What would a boy have to do with this? Rugged terrain.
LB LB.
Lankershim-Blaisdel.
Krystle, I'd like to see you alone.
I'll be right back, darling.
Please, sit.
Are you all right? It helps.
I've had this with me ever since I left Denver.
It's one of the One of the things that's kept me going.
- What is it? - A diary.
The story of two people and nearly two years in their lives.
I've marked some of the passages.
I was hoping maybe you might read them for me, Krystle.
Please? "May 2nd, 1978.
I had an appointment with Blake at his office today.
He has a new secretary.
Beautiful.
Her name is Krystle Jennings.
May 13th.
I finally phoned her today, asked if she'd like to go to a movie.
Then over dinner, she told me she was divorced and new in Denver.
I told her about my wife being sick.
She touched my hand for a moment.
" She touched my hand for a moment.
"As if to share a mutual Ioneliness.
June 15th.
It's dawn.
I just got in.
We hadn't planned it that way.
It just happened.
We'd been out dancing.
When we got back to her apartment, I found myself taking her into my arms.
We kissed for the first time.
" Matthew, why am I reading this? Please, Krystle.
Please.
"And then we made love.
Our bodies one.
And now here I am, back in my own bed alone.
But not really.
Krystle is still with me.
She will always be with me.
" Always, Krystle.
Our bodies, our lives, one again.
- It's our destiny.
- Matthew, what are you talking about? Think of it as a momentary pause on the On the way to a place where everybody loves everybody.
Think of it that way and you'll be happy the way The way we were.
There.
Those are my cars.
My family's in there.
Come on, let's get out of here.
You're Larry, Willie's son.
I don't guess you remember me, or do you? You haven't been around here recently, have you? Been in and out.
All the business I used to give your dad, and all the times I sent my scufflebum wildcatter friends out to give him even more.
Now do you remember? Yeah, I think I remember you.
Well, I've got to ask you for a little favour, Larry.
You see, I need a little dynamite and I don't have time to get a permit.
It's for my well.
You do need a permit.
Well, now, you don't think I plan on blowing up the state capitol, do you, Larry? Of course not, but But what? You see, I got this damned stubborn piece of rock, and I need to clear it out.
And I just Well, I just thought maybe a couple of cases of dynamite.
That's all I need.
I think that might There's a couple cans of corned beef hash, - soup, pork and beans - I don't want your food.
What do you want, Ms.
Carrington? You tell me how Dex is.
You shot him.
I didn't shoot him.
But I didn't have any choice.
It was his fault.
Nobody told him to run, missy.
You monster! You okay? You've gotta try to take it easy, Leslie.
Isn't help ever gonna get here? I wish we knew about that helicopter we heard.
Was it a coincidence? - Or were they looking? - I don't know.
We gotta think of a way out of here.
Why are we letting that man strangle our thinking? Steven, think of something.
Can't we jump them? Are you crazy? They'd kill us.
They might even kill the children.
Look, whatever we do, we can't even think of using violence.
Is that the voice of a coward I'm hearing? - He's not a coward.
- Stop it, both of you.
Then what are you gonna do about it? I am going to reason with Matthew.
You're gonna reason with him? With a lunatic? Then we're all gonna die, and that includes your son, Steven.
From what I hear, you've let him down this far in his life.
Why stop now? She didn't mean what she said about Danny.
She's just scared.
What's happening? Just a family discussion got a little too loud, I guess.
Look, we can't let Matthew divide us.
We have to stick together on this.
Why bring us out here in the middle of nowhere? I have no idea what he's up to, but somehow, we have got to play along with it until help gets here.
Blake will get us out.
I know he will.
I think it's about time we went downstairs for a honeymoon lunch.
- Hawaiian style.
How about it? - Mm-mm.
We can use room service after.
After what? - You're insatiable.
- I am where you're concerned.
I love you so much.
For everything you are.
And for what you're gonna give us.
An heir.
Oh, we're gonna fill the house with kids.
At least four.
No.
Five little Carringtons.
The fantastic gorgeous children you and I are gonna make.
Did I say something wrong? - Well, Adam - Mrs.
Carrington.
Is there some deep, dark secret in your past I should know about? Sorry.
No secrets.
- It's just that this is our honeymoon.
- Mm-hm.
It's the start of our lives together.
And we have so many things to plan, like where we're going to live.
And what we're going to do together before - Before we start a family? - Yes.
Oh, you are so sweet.
You really don't understand, do you? My darling, the first thing I want is a baby.
Our baby.
Sammy Jo, I'm sorry about what I said.
That's all right.
I know Steven's doing what he thinks right.
- But we have got to get help fast.
- What are you thinking? Matthew will be watching Steven.
He won't keep a close eye on us.
Now, I went into the tool room a few minutes ago.
And they have a small window I could get through and get help.
- Aunt Krystle thinks that - Blake will get here? Where is he? You're getting out of here.
Think it'll work? What are the odds? I don't know.
Look, I'm smaller than you.
Let me do it.
No.
You've got Danny to look after.
Now, if Blaisdel or any of his men come close to this room, I want you to distract them for a few minutes, okay? Okay.
Be careful.
Stop! Please, stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Please, stop! Please! Why are you always doing things to anger me, Ms.
Carrington, huh? - What the hell are you doing? - Hold it! When we got here, I told her what would happen if anybody tried to get out.
- She's tried twice.
- Matthew, stop him.
She deserves what she'll get.
She has to pay.
They demand it.
Who demands it? The gods you talked about? I thought you were a man of peace, Matthew.
Yes, but there's peace in death, Steven.
- She disobeyed.
- She's frightened.
She made a mistake.
Is your good place that perfect where nobody ever does anything they're sorry for? - Are you sorry? - Yes.
Are you sure? Yes.
That's good.
That's very good.
Anything else you wanna talk to me about, Steven? No.
Good.
- Feeling better? - Yes, thanks, much.
Want to call L.
B.
One more time before we hit the road? I've talked to him twice.
I think he knows his mother is okay.
But you're not, are you? What's wrong? - Well, I'm still a little confused.
- About? Your boots.
What? You're kidding.
- You don't like them? - No, no, I like them.
It's just that Let me see the bottom of them.
Oh, come on, just humour me for five minutes, all right? Let me see.
They're hardly even scratched up.
So? You told me you got out of the car and you walk around for miles and What do you think I was doing? Having an overnight affair in the middle of the desert? I'm not accusing you of anything.
It's just that I think you're keeping something from me.
Fallon? Randall? You were right the first time.
It's Fallon.
Randall was me when I was sick, couldn't remember who I was.
I was delusional then.
- Are you saying I'm delusional now? - No.
I guess you must be stressed out.
Wouldn't you be? Jeff, I had car trouble.
I didn't know what to do.
I started walking and And what? I don't remember exactly.
The next thing I knew, you found me.
And that is the end of my mysterious odyssey.
You wanna do a sobriety test? You want me to walk a straight line? You want me to recite the Pledge of Allegiance? What do you want? I don't wanna go back to Los Angeles.
And I think we should find a motel and get some rest.
It's been a long day.
And a long night.
Hello? It's Mrs.
Colby.
Any messages? My family? What about them? Oh, my God, where are they? I'll be right there.
I want my daddy.
Oh, honey.
He's gonna be here real soon.
Why don't you go with Mrs.
Gunnerson? - You know why? - Why? Because she has a wonderful story to tell you.
Oh, Gerard, I don't think we're ever gonna get out of here.
- You mustn't say that.
- No, somebody has to say it.
Oh, but, you know, I've been thinking.
And the only thing I'm really sorry about - About what? - You and I.
We never did do all those things we talked about doing.
Remember, Gerard? - A Sunday afternoon picnic.
- Ha, ha.
Yeah.
Ice skating at Christmas.
We put off so many things, didn't we? We watched and time passed by.
I've put off something else.
I've never had the courage to tell you this all these years.
But I care a great deal about you, Jeannette.
Fact is I love you.
Oh, my.
- If I've offended you - No.
No.
Matthew, look, let's talk.
Why'd you come up here? Make up your mind whether or not you're going to come with me? I'm not sure yet.
I have a son to consider.
And a father to forget.
We're still in his jungle now where men kill each other for sport or gain or survival.
And if you don't come with me Go on.
Who knows? We may have to face one another.
Two old friends, with one of us maybe having to kill the other.
That's the rules of Blake Carrington's world.
You think you could do it, Steven? If I had to.
You can if you want to.
There's a gun.
Grab it.
Fire.
And it'll all be over for me.
What would that prove, Matthew? I knew you couldn't do it.
You don't have what it takes.
You can't survive in Blake Carrington's world, Steven.
Come on.
Let's get back.
I have something I have to talk about with Krystle.
So, Blake told you.
It's the one thing he said that I want to believe, that your marriage isn't working out.
But when we talked at the house, you told me how happy you were.
Is what he said true? Well, we have been having a few problems.
Every marriage has a few problems.
Do the two of you still make love? - Sometimes.
- Because it's expected? - I guess.
- Does it satisfy you? I don't wanna talk about this.
I need to know, Krystle.
Was it me? Was it always me? Yes.
Yes, it was.
Then it's settled.
You'll leave with me.
Matthew, I'll go anywhere you want to go.
But you have to promise me that you'll let Kristina and the others stay with Blake.
That's all I ask.
Please, just promise me that.
Yes, I will.
And we'll have a wonderful life.
I promise you that.
We'll be happy, Krystle.
And we'II We might have a child of our own.
McHENRY Blaisdel, this is Chief McHenry.
We know you're in there.
Give yourself up now.
We have our best men in place.
The entire building is covered.
Give it up before anyone gets killed.
No! Chief, let me try to talk to him.
Matthew.
Both your men are dead.
You've got no chance.
Now, let my family out.
Please.
I beg you as I've never begged any man for anything.
Please, let my family go.
Let everyone you're holding go free.
Now, Matthew.
Please.
- Blake.
What are you doing here? - You could get killed.
- Are they all right? I don't know.
I wish I could tell you, but I don't know.
- Well, what happened? - Matthew and his men - broke into our house.
- Why? - He wanted Krystle.
- Krystle? I'm not sacrificing my family for that woman.
- Steven and Danny are in there.
- No.
- I've got to go.
Let me go.
- No, no.
You mustn't.
You mustn't.
Darling? Jeff, I wanna go home.
First thing in the morning.
No, I wanna go home to Denver.
- You really mean that, don't you? - Yes.
Can't we do something? Blake, I'm coming out! Do you hear me? Yes! Yes, I can hear you! Hold your fire.
Hold your fire.
Matthew wants to speak to you alone, Blake.
He wants to discuss his safe return to Peru.
And if you agree to this, he'll free the others.
All right, Matthew, I agree, if you'll let them go.
Matthew, I've decided I'm not going with you.
I'm staying with my family.
All right, Steven.
Go.
- Steven.
Oh, Danny, darling.
- Get these people out of here.
Fast.
Everyone, this way, quickly.
Daddy.
Daddy.
- Put her in the car, Mrs.
Gunnerson.
Where's Krystle? She was ready to come out with us.
Blake.
Blake.
Can't you stop him going in there? It's dangerous.
His wife is in there, Mrs.
Colby.
I'd do the same thing.
No.
No.
That's as far as you go, Blake.
Why is Krystle still here? Why didn't you let her go out with the others? What's she doing here? I thought you said she could come with me.
Isn't that what you said, to be with me? Well, didn't you say that? Or were you lying? Like you always lie, Blake.
Like you always have.
Krystle.
Were you lying? I mean, which one of us do you belong to? Just as I thought.
Well, now, we'll just leave it in the hands of the gods.
Chief, chief.
I saw him on television.
That guy Blaisdel, he came by to see me this afternoon.
I sold him a lot of dynamite.
Clear the area! - Clear the area! - Steven! Steven! Steven, get out of here.
You heard him, Steven, get back out there.
I can't let you do this, Matthew.
Well, you're gonna have to stop me, Steven.
I will.
Pull the wires.
Don't do it, Blake! You surprise me, Steven.
