Dynasty s08e07 Episode Script
The Primary
I can't have a baby.
But I have heard of a way.
Will you help me? Last time on Dynasty: Oh, God.
What am I really doing here? You're here to get information from an attorney, that's all.
But suddenly, the idea of some other woman carrying Adam's child scares me.
Mr.
Houser, this is my husband, Adam Carrington.
- Hello.
- How do you do? And I have someone I'd like you to meet.
Karen? Karen Atkinson, I'd like you to meet the Carringtons.
I'm very happy to meet you.
Be honest.
Do you really think that there's a future for a woman working with Dex Dexter? - I owe him a lot.
- You owe yourself more.
Women like us, Leslie, we always find a way.
I have been combing Denver, just looking for someone to take me to dinner.
I really can't.
Not tonight.
There is this place No.
Don't ask me to tell you where, but they have killer lasagne.
You know, you're a very persuasive woman.
I couldn't care less about Blake.
- She's really out to get you.
- Darling, let her try.
They only issue that's gonna be important to the voters of this state is whether or not Blake Carrington is gonna be a good governor.
Truth is, there is no such thing as a good governor.
The papers love Harris.
They're calling him a saviour.
You talked to him.
What did you think? The man belongs in a cage, Steven.
- Go ahead, laugh.
- Here.
Come here.
He won't hurt you.
There.
See, he's real gentle.
Shouldn't you be at practice, Harris? Mr.
Carrington's next stop on this whirlwind pre-primary swing through Colorado was Glenwood Springs, where he met this morning with a mob of well-wishers.
And then it was on to Pueblo, where he gave a speech in which he talked about the environment.
And about the issue of certain timberlands that have been raised recently, well, I want you to know that I am not against growth.
I'm for it.
But the destruction of our environment for personal gain is not growth.
It is pure, unadulterated, rotten greed.
To put it mildly, you seem to be anxious about the Whitcomb's deal.
To put it mildly, yes.
I want it nailed down.
Alexis, you have a verbal agreement with Whitcomb's grandchildren.
Yes, I'm beginning to think that they can't be trusted.
They'll sell to Blake, help him wrap up this nomination.
I should've been the candidate, you know.
Now he is rising in the popularity polls.
Damn it.
Now, stop getting yourself upset and think about packing.
- Packing? For what? - I'm taking you away.
- It's called a vacation.
- Heh, a vacation? - You must be joking.
Where? - Now, that part is a secret.
So first thing in the morning, pack your clothes for warm weather.
And we're off on a plane I've chartered.
Sean, do you realise the primary is three days away, and l Yes, I'll have you back in three days.
Come on, you need a rest.
You've got nothing but Blake Carrington on your mind.
He isn't worth it.
You are.
- Look, I don't think - Come on, it's just a few days.
Just the two of us, alone.
You might be pleasantly surprised.
Well, I suppose it would do me good to get away for a few days.
I wasn't sure I was gonna win that round.
Hmm, you almost didn't, heh.
Oh, you are such a romantic, aren't you? You remind me of the first man I fell in love with - when I was 17 years old.
- Blake? All right, Mr.
Rowan.
I'll go away with you.
But you must promise to get me back here in time to vote.
- Have I ever lied to you? - Ha, not yet.
I've gotta make a phone call now.
Denver Mirror? Get me the editor at the night desk.
It's nice to have you home for dinner for a change.
It's nice to be home for a change.
I been so crazy with the team.
You know that we just might make the playoffs this year? Josh Harris is really turning things around, isn't he? Yeah.
We lucked out.
Don't be so modest.
It was more than luck, Steven.
You picked him.
Thanks.
So are you still a Josh Harris fan? We've been through this already, Steven.
If you're talking about the incident a couple of weeks ago, it was just a friendly little pass.
It was more than a friendly little pass.
Steven, when you moved back here, we agreed, separate beds and separate rooms.
That's the way it's been.
But I was hoping we'd spend more time together.
Maybe Josh is what I need.
Currying horses every day doesn't exactly fill a woman's needs.
I'm sorry.
I have been spending a lot of time with the team.
But I will make it up to you.
We'll spend more time together.
I promise.
Welcome back.
- Hello, Mary.
From the reports we got, you wowed them in Peoria.
Yeah.
It'd be terrific if I was running for governor of Illinois.
- I'll go see if anyone's located Arthur.
- Fine.
That'll be helpful.
- Lots of calls? - Lots and lots.
Plus those wires.
Good reaction from Montrose County? And Larimer.
You were a bit concerned, but the reports are both excellent.
It's the Mirror.
A special bulldog edition just arrived.
- I think you should see it.
Hmm.
Excuse me.
A little welcoming home from Alexis.
"The Denver Mirror endorses Ralph Dunbar of Grand Junction for the gubernatorial candidate in our vital upcoming primary.
" Listen to this: "The electorate has the right to ask the operative question: Is Blake Carrington capable of disengaging himself from his considerable business interests?" "Dunbar is a man of the people.
When push comes to shove, will Carrington come first or will Colorado?" But she knows you have to divest yourself of your holdings in Denver-Carrington if you're a candidate.
I'm sure she does.
Well, how can we let her do this to you? She has a knack for it.
And she certainly knows how to get my wife steamed up.
Blake, don't tease me.
We have to do something about her.
Now, you're a man of your word and Alexis knows that.
But if she prints something enough times, people are gonna start to believe it's the truth.
Some will, but some won't.
Either way, we can't stop her.
Darling, please.
We mustn't let Alexis sidetrack us.
This is gonna be a long, hard fight.
All right? All right.
Now, let's get back to what we were doing.
What about the TV spots? Well, we're fine.
You're set for filming tomorrow afternoon.
Good.
I'm speaking to a group of educators at breakfast, then I'm having lunch with the Citizen's League, and Lord help me, high tea with the voters council.
Blake, do you think I'm putting on weight? All those scrambled eggs and chicken a la king? - Well, now that you mention it - Oh, you rat, heh.
- I was able to locate Whitcomb.
Good.
Where is he? He's in his condo in Vail.
And he said no to your visit.
Well, you call him back and you tell him I know there's bad blood between the Whitcombs and the Carringtons, but I never thought I'd see the day when he'd be afraid to see me.
If you want music, we have cassettes on board.
No, I just wanted to get a news programme from Denver - to find out the latest on the primary.
- Sorry.
None of that.
- Ha, Sean.
- No, I said it.
This was to be your vacation, and on my terms.
Oh, how very gallant of you.
So where are you taking me? You'll see when we get there.
Hmm.
- You could be abducting me.
- Hey, that's true.
- Mm? - You're a very wealthy woman.
- Oh.
- I could be kidnapping you to, say, Ireland to help with the financing for the gun-running.
Oh, maybe you are kidnapping me.
Mm-hm.
Then why don't you tell the pilot to turn the plane around.
Heh, no.
It's all right.
I don't care where it is that you're taking me.
As long as we're together, I know it's going to be wonderful.
Here's to us.
Put my number on it.
Makes you an honorary Denver Monarch.
Well, thanks, Josh.
Is it safe? Um, sure.
No one here but us kids.
Mommy, look.
Wow, that's terrific.
But we've gotta get going, sweetheart.
- I have to show the guys first.
- Okay.
- He's a great kid.
- Yeah, I know.
Look, what happened at the stables I'm sorry.
Me too.
It won't happen again.
I like Steven, and I owe him.
Forget it.
It's history.
- Mommy, look.
That's nice.
- Daddy, look what Josh gave me.
- Ha, ha, heh.
That looks great.
You look very sharp.
I didn't know you were coming here today, Sammy Jo.
Oh, I didn't either.
Josh invited Danny to watch practise.
Come on, sweetheart, it's time to go.
- Bye, Daddy.
Bye, Josh.
- See you later.
See you, kid.
Harris, I could have gotten my son the football jersey.
Well, I thought he might enjoy practise.
Matter of fact, he did.
A lot.
Uh, Steven, I know I was wrong with Sammy Jo.
- Do you? - Yes.
You two have an agreement, and I respect that.
What happened between us was nothing Look, Harris, I don't want your shirts and I don't want your apologies.
I was watching you out on that practise field.
You lost your concentration, you were walking through the drills.
Just do us both a big favour.
Just play football.
And stay away from my family.
Well, you certainly are a man of mystery, Sean.
I mean, you fly us out here on a private jet, and then you dump us in this cabin, which seems to be miles away from anywhere.
And better yet, there's no phone, no radio, no TV and no neighbours.
- So - We don't dress for dinner.
So when is the happy hour? Well, that's every moment I spend with you, my gorgeous senora.
Well, I haven't seen the housekeeper and I presume there's a cook.
Hmm? Oh, yes.
There are both of us.
You and me, Alexis.
And we're on our own.
- Huh? You and me? - Mm-hm.
So, uh, what's for dinner then? We fish for it.
Fish? Sean, I don't like fish.
I only like caviar.
Heh, well, it's not quite caviar.
And, um, we're short on supplies.
I'll take the boat across in the morning and pick us up some things.
Now, why don't you change your clothes and we'll go catch us our dinner.
I got a much better idea.
Why don't the two of us go on a diet just for tonight, hmm? Would you like that? Go away.
All right.
All right.
Come in.
You're a hard man to track down, Arthur.
You don't listen, do you? I don't like being tracked down.
That's why I move around.
To get away from all these insects crawling on me and my bank account, and nibbling away at both.
Now, what do you want? And make it brief.
I wanna talk to you about Alexis Colby.
If you're referring to the fact that I'm gonna sell her that little patch of land, that's my decision.
Your decision? Or your children's? Those idiots can ride around in their Rolls-Royces.
I still make up my own mind.
- This conversation's terminated.
- Now, look, Arthur.
I know that you and my father didn't get along.
That he may or may not have messed up some kind of a deal for you He did.
I was just beginning in the business.
The old coot tried to walk away with the rainbow and leave me sitting there with an empty pot.
Except that it didn't turn out that way, did it? You both became very successful businessmen.
Now Arthur, I happen to know that you and my father shared a dream.
About Colorado.
About keeping this land the way it is.
A dream about keeping the land virginal and beautiful.
So that people could enjoy it and be proud of it.
Look, Carrington.
Where would this state, this country be if we decided the whole thing should be one big damned park? Nowhere.
Now, don't make me have to call security.
No.
No, don't bother.
I'm going.
But I want you to know that one way or another, I'm gonna make that dream come true.
Good morning.
Good morning.
- Good night? - Oh, yes.
Fabulous night, heh.
It's starting to cloud up.
I'd better get across the channel and get those supplies.
Oh, I'll come with you.
It's getting a little choppy out there.
Too rough for you, darling.
I'll be back before you know it.
What am I supposed to do while you're gone? - Miss me.
- Hmm, I'll try.
- What are you reading? - I don't think you'd be interested.
Come on now.
Of course I'd be interested.
- Let me see.
- Please, Jeff.
What is it? "Adventures into the Unknown; An Extra-Terrestrial Dossier.
" - Oh, boy.
- Don't start.
"Don't start"? When is this gonna stop? Yesterday, a phone call.
Today, a book.
- What phone call? - Oh, one of your weirdo friends called to remind you about some group meeting.
- When? - Sometime tomorrow morning.
And when were you gonna tell me about it? Jeff? Fallon, do you have any idea how concerned I am for you? I mean, this whole thing has a ring of lunacy to it.
When exactly is the meeting? People don't do this.
People don't see spaceships and they don't go up in them.
You're worried about me because I said I did? Yes, I am worried.
I can understand that.
Maybe if you met some of these people, came to a meeting with me.
I'm talking about our life together.
Our marriage.
And I want you to try to understand something that's going on in my life now.
Said she'd be here at 3.
She's half an hour late.
She'll be here.
Doctors offices are always crowded.
And then there's traffic.
- Darling.
- Yes? If Karen says it didn't take, that she's not pregnant Yeah.
Let's wait a little while before we try again, please? You aren't having second thoughts, are you? I think we might be rushing it.
This whole thing was your idea in the first place, remember? Yes, I do.
It's just that I never stopped to think that Well, heh, are we going into this before we've even had a chance to settle into marriage? I have settled into it.
Dana, do you realise that my child could be the grandson of the next governor of Colorado? Do you know what that could mean? - The doctor was running late.
- That's what we figured.
Would you like some wine? Thanks.
But, uh, no alcohol.
Not for the duration.
You are pregnant? Sure am.
- Heh.
- We're gonna have a baby.
Oh, Karen.
I can't tell you what this means.
Thank you.
I can't wait to see Blake's face when he hears about it.
Look, I'm afraid I have to go.
I'm late.
- But I'm glad I stayed to get this news.
KAREN: Heh.
- I'll see you soon.
- Yes.
And, you, I'll see you at home.
I, uh, caught the look on your face before.
Oh, it's wonderful news, heh.
But what? But I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and I I thought about today and what the doctor's report might be, and I thought that if Karen says, "I'm pregnant," then my husband, the man I love so much, will really be having a child.
But not by me.
By some other woman.
Dana.
I might be the biological mother of Adam's child, but that's where it ends.
- I appreciate your saying that - I mean it.
You and I are going to share this experience every step of the way.
And you think you feel funny, oh, my God, I hardly know the man.
Uh, I've never even seen him in a swimsuit.
What kind of knees does he have? Knobby? Gorgeous? Sort of in-between.
Dana, right now, I'm carrying Adam's child who will then become your child.
Legally.
Lovingly.
Period.
Okay? Good night.
There.
Done.
Anything else I can help you with, Jeff? No, no.
It's getting late.
You've gotta be getting tired and I'm just bushed.
Well, how does that feel? Well, I'd be a cad if I said "rotten.
" Heh, I'd punch you in the nose - Ha, ha.
- If you said "rotten.
" Heh.
- Yeah.
You've got pretty good fingers.
- Only good? No.
You've got very agile and very sensitive fingers.
Oh.
Well, the last campaign manager that I worked on said that my fingers were sensual.
But, um, I guess I'll just, uh, accept agile and soothing for now.
Hey, Dex.
Hi, Jeff.
Blake around? No, he's at the house if you need to reach him.
Ah, it can wait, uh, till morning.
Well, I'm out of here.
It's been a long day.
Thanks for the computer workout and the massage.
Any time.
If you wanna make the call, do it now, Dex.
I'm closing up.
It's nothing urgent.
Then do you wanna quit staring at me? Leslie, you are a piece of work.
First, you move in on Alexis, and now Jeff Colby.
Why don't you spare me your little observations? Whatever you can get, right? Grabbing with both hands? You'd rather be a first-rate Colby than a second-rate Carrington.
Isn't that what's going clickety-click through that non-stop brain of yours? What an interesting notion.
Why don't you stay tuned to find out? Oh, God, Sean.
Where are you? Shoot.
Sean.
Sean.
Sean.
Oh, Sean, Sean, Sean.
I've been so worried about you.
Oh, I thought you were dead.
I thought I'd ne - Look at you, you're soaking wet.
- Thought you'd never what? I went out on the beach.
I was calling your name.
The surf was so high.
All I could think about was you out there alone in that tiny boat.
You thought I was gonna die.
And I thought I was gonna die.
- Yes.
Weren't you frightened? - Oh, yes.
But do you know what I was more terrified about? Not drowning, not death.
I was afraid, Alexis, that I was gonna die and that I'd never see you again.
Never.
Ever.
Oh, Sean.
Oh, Sean.
Oh.
At first, it was like a terrible assault on my person as well as on my mind.
I boarded a spacecraft and I thought: "Who are these forms? Devils of some sort? Is this hell?" Did you share that feeling, any of you? I did.
Sure did.
I did too.
I felt controlled, completely controlled.
Exactly.
I couldn't move.
I thought I'd been tied.
But I hadn't been.
I kept asking myself, "What do they want from me? What?" But then, did a sort of a sense of peace come over you? Yes, it did.
But the endless time before that I'd rather not talk about that part.
But, Mr.
Alpert, that's why we're here.
It's for us all to know that we're not alone.
Now, for those who've been chosen to have these encounters, there seems to be a phenomenon where some of our children are having dreams of strange creatures visiting them.
Fallon, you have children.
A son, 6 years old, and a baby daughter.
Well, has your son ever mentioned anything like this to you? No, he hasn't.
How about you, Mr.
Colby? Heh, obviously, you're here with us this morning because you support your wife.
So I pose this question to you.
Did your son ever talk to you about dreams that he's had? Miss Lindquist, my son has no part of this, heh.
I know how you feel, Mr.
Colby.
We've tried to protect our family too.
I would appreciate it if you would answer my question, Mr.
Colby.
Miss Lindquist, if my son had ever even mentioned this to me, I'd have him off to a psychiatrist.
Fast.
Excuse me.
I have to go.
- Fallon, are you gonna join me? - No, I'm not.
Bye.
So do you wanna get married here, or go back to Denver? Heh, married? Sean, you can't be serious.
Okay.
If you hadn't lost all our groceries in the channel, we might have something else to eat other than tortillas and eggs.
I'm serious about you, Alexis.
I'm serious about us.
And you said it to me, we belong together.
Yes.
I know we said that, Sean.
But that was when we were, um Heh, well, you know.
And that's all it meant to you, a pleasant way to spend the time? No, that's not all it meant to me.
Heh, I adore you, you know that.
You're kind, you're strong, you're very romantic.
You manned your oars through thick and thin just to get back here to me.
But how can I marry you? I hardly know you.
Do you wanna know how long my father knew my mother before they got married? - Hmm? - Two weeks and not one day longer.
- Heh, was he as charming as you? - Oh, yes.
Mm-hm.
- More charming, by far.
- Unh, ha, ha.
- And do you know how he proposed? - No, heh.
He said, "Wed me today, lassie, or you'll miss me sore tomorrow.
" And they spent all of their lives together, and it was the best marriage I ever knew or heard about.
Alexis, do you believe in fate? Yes.
When you went off that bridge into that river, and I just happened to be driving by, that was fate.
When I was living alone, splitting logs and cursing my empty life, you were looking for me, don't tell me that wasn't fate.
You've known men, Alexis.
And I have known women.
Now, what we have together, where would we ever find it again? Oh, Sean.
Wed me today, lassie, or you'll miss me sore tomorrow.
Steven's not here.
What is it you want? You want the truth? I was driving around and I decided I wanted to see you.
Well, I'm in a rush.
Danny's at his grandfather's house - and they're all waiting for me.
- Ooh, uh I wanted to see you and talk to you, Sammy Jo.
About us.
- I'm leaving.
- Just listen to me.
- I don't wanna listen to you.
- Hey.
What is it? Really? Are you afraid about us? That's it, isn't it? Listen, Josh.
Steven and I love each other in our own way.
Very deeply.
Some people might not understand that, but we do.
He's, uh, a gentle, caring man.
And I can't hurt him.
I wouldn't hurt him for anything or anyone.
Hi, darling.
Pick a dress.
The green.
It complements your eyes.
Aw, mm.
Ha-ha-ha.
- What's that? - What do you think? Oh, they're beautiful.
I love them.
Do you think Karen will? - Karen? - Yeah.
Oh, I'm sure she will.
I spent nearly half an hour in Jensen's just trying to decide.
But she's worth it.
We owe her so much.
Is there any hot water? If there isn't, complain to the management.
As soon as the telecast is over, get a hold of research.
Tell them I want polling information by midnight.
Good luck tonight, Jeff.
Thank you.
We're gonna need all of that we can get.
You're doing a terrific job for Uncle Blake.
Fallon.
Remember you wanted to know who told me about your experience out in the desert? You just saw her leave.
Leslie? How does she know? She has her ways.
About a lot of things.
Excuse me, Miss Fallon, Mr.
Dexter, the telecast is about to start.
Thank you, Gerard.
I hate this doggone makeup.
No point in getting upset.
It has to be done.
I know, I know.
It still doesn't mean I have to like it.
- Mr.
Carrington? - Yes? Sorry to rush, but we'll be ready in a few minutes.
Oh, I'll be right there.
Okay.
Thank you.
All right.
- Blake.
Arthur.
Oh, darling, this is Arthur Whitcomb.
This is my wife, Krystle.
Hello.
Uh, I've heard a lot about you.
I'll bet you have.
I was wrong.
You were right.
Here's the deed to that land.
I thought you felt Never mind what you thought.
It's what I want.
- Thank you, Arthur.
Don't thank me, Blake.
Just go out there and be the best governor this state ever had.
Mrs.
Carrington.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
This is a deed for 70,000 of the most beautiful acres of timberland in the state of Colorado.
It was generously given, after some persuasion, by Mr.
Arthur whitcomb to the people of this state.
Now, there are some who might accuse me of strong-arm tactics, and they'd be right, because I tried my darndest to help preserve this acreage for you, the people of this state of Colorado.
And this is only the beginning.
We're going to have more jobs.
We're going to have more subsidies for the disadvantaged, for education, for the social services, all of them.
And we're going to help to preserve the beauty of our land as much as we can.
Yes, it is possible.
And I intend to prove it.
Hey, heh.
Well-written.
Well-written, Jeff.
- Sorry I'm late.
- What happened? Two of the stable boys got in an argument and I refereed.
No big deal.
You missed a good speech by Blake.
I think it might have clinched the primary for him.
- My God, you look beautiful.
- Ha, oh, thank you.
The bride wore red.
I'm sorry, it's the only dress I packed.
Good morning, judge.
He says, "You're very beautiful.
" I know what he said, heh.
He's a very discriminating man.
He asked me if I will take this lovely, very, very lovely woman to be my wife.
Now and for always.
- Yes, I do.
- Heh.
And do you, Alexis, take this man, Sean, who is not worthy, but who loves you with such passion of infinite proportions, as your lawful wedded husband? Heh, that's not what he said, but It's a loose translation.
Yes, I do.
I do.
Um He said I may kiss the bride to my heart's content.
Mm, so, what are you waiting for? Ha, ha.
Oh, Sean.
And now, Mrs.
Rowan, let's go home.
All right.
Aren't you gonna join us, Daddy? The family is in the living room watching the early returns.
We've got a little time yet.
There won't be any substantial results for quite a while.
Come here.
Sit down and talk to me for a couple of minutes.
What are you doing in here all by yourself, anyway? Oh, I'm just thinking.
Can't a fellow do that? Yes.
- Tell me, now.
How is everything? - Fine, just fine.
Everything going well with you and Jeff? Daddy, I'd rather not get into that.
- Yes, but, Fallon, I couldn't help - No, I mean it.
Please, not now.
Not tonight of all nights.
All right.
I just thought if there was a problem, that I might be able to help.
Well, there is a problem, but it's not monumental.
Haven't you told me many times about commitment and hanging in and to try dealing with problems ourselves? Well, that's what I'm doing.
So how's that for the obedient daughter? There's nothing serious, huh? Jeff and I have to work it out between us.
Now, tonight is your night.
You're on your way to becoming governor.
- Well, maybe.
- Definitely.
- You're gonna be a great governor.
- Let's put that aside for a moment.
The governorship and the election.
Whatever.
Darling, I just want you to know that if you need me, I'm here for you, and I always will be.
I know that, Daddy.
And we'll talk about this again soon.
I promise.
Thank you.
Now, let's go and watch the returns.
- Oh, heh.
All right.
- Heh.
Oh, what a place to spend our honeymoon night.
Oh, we've got the rest of our lives together, Sean.
Now, I've got to finish this dictation and then we'll go, all right? Leslie.
I'll be in sometime tomorrow, but I want you to cancel all of my meetings.
I want you to see that Legal is up on the Dillard matter, and I want it cleared up once and for all.
Scratch the meeting with Congressman Henderson on Wednesday.
Tell him I'll get back to him.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I, uh, didn't know that you were back.
I was gonna drop these by for you to sign.
Well, I'll do them tomorrow.
Meanwhile, I left some notes for you.
You can do them in the morning.
I will.
Interesting about Uncle Blake, isn't it? What's so interesting about him? Two networks made an early projection that he'll win the primary.
- What? - I'm sure that Mr.
Whitcomb's donating the timberland to the state while you were away didn't hurt either.
Leslie, I don't find that so interesting.
Why don't you, um, leave all that, do it tomorrow.
- Good night.
Good night.
Oh, he sweet-talked Whitcomb into caving in to him.
He wanted to cheat me and now thinks he's gonna run for governor.
Look, Alexis.
This is our honeymoon.
We have other things to think of.
This is just the primary.
Blake's not governor yet.
And he never will be.
Never.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
My family and I would like you to know how grateful we are for all your many kindnesses during this campaign.
And I personally would like to thank you for your unflagging support in helping me to win this primary.
But we are not going to stop here.
We're going on.
Thank you very much.
- Mrs.
Carrington, how do you feel? - Oh, I feel terrific.
As my husband just said, it's just the beginning, and we're going all the way.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
Thank you, heh.
Dad, I've gotta take Sammy Jo home and then I'm taking off to Houston.
- So congratulations again, heh.
- Thank you, son.
Sure you want Danny to spend the night? Certainly.
We told him we'd have him over at the house to celebrate with us.
You don't mind, do you? Danny would mind if we said no.
Oh, Steven, don't go yet, please.
Dad, I have an announcement to make, if I may.
Yes, indeed.
What is it? Well, the governor-to-be is also a new grandfather-to-be.
We're gonna have a baby.
Well, heh - Dana, congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Need any help? - No, I'll be fine.
Thanks.
How about company? Like me.
I thought it would be kind of fun if I came along with you.
Oh, Sammy Jo, it's a business trip.
It won't be any fun at all.
- What about Danny? - Heh, he'll be fine at the house.
He has L.
B.
To play with and Jeannette and Mrs.
Gunnerson to spoil him.
We'd hardly ever see each other.
Well, I'd settle for and a cup of hot chocolate late at night.
How about that? Not this time, I just I've got too much to do.
Steven, I just don't wanna be alone tonight.
I'll be back before you know it.
Really.
Of course.
Steven, is that you? No, Sammy Jo.
Your houseman let me in.
He's a fan.
I told him I wanted to see you for a minute - and he thought it'd be okay.
- You shouldn't be here, Josh.
I know.
You want me to leave? Hello? Why did you call me here? No, no, it's too late.
No, it's already done.
I married the woman.
Don't call me here again, is that clear? Who was that on the phone? - Wrong number.
Oh, well, just see that there aren't any more of them.
But I have heard of a way.
Will you help me? Last time on Dynasty: Oh, God.
What am I really doing here? You're here to get information from an attorney, that's all.
But suddenly, the idea of some other woman carrying Adam's child scares me.
Mr.
Houser, this is my husband, Adam Carrington.
- Hello.
- How do you do? And I have someone I'd like you to meet.
Karen? Karen Atkinson, I'd like you to meet the Carringtons.
I'm very happy to meet you.
Be honest.
Do you really think that there's a future for a woman working with Dex Dexter? - I owe him a lot.
- You owe yourself more.
Women like us, Leslie, we always find a way.
I have been combing Denver, just looking for someone to take me to dinner.
I really can't.
Not tonight.
There is this place No.
Don't ask me to tell you where, but they have killer lasagne.
You know, you're a very persuasive woman.
I couldn't care less about Blake.
- She's really out to get you.
- Darling, let her try.
They only issue that's gonna be important to the voters of this state is whether or not Blake Carrington is gonna be a good governor.
Truth is, there is no such thing as a good governor.
The papers love Harris.
They're calling him a saviour.
You talked to him.
What did you think? The man belongs in a cage, Steven.
- Go ahead, laugh.
- Here.
Come here.
He won't hurt you.
There.
See, he's real gentle.
Shouldn't you be at practice, Harris? Mr.
Carrington's next stop on this whirlwind pre-primary swing through Colorado was Glenwood Springs, where he met this morning with a mob of well-wishers.
And then it was on to Pueblo, where he gave a speech in which he talked about the environment.
And about the issue of certain timberlands that have been raised recently, well, I want you to know that I am not against growth.
I'm for it.
But the destruction of our environment for personal gain is not growth.
It is pure, unadulterated, rotten greed.
To put it mildly, you seem to be anxious about the Whitcomb's deal.
To put it mildly, yes.
I want it nailed down.
Alexis, you have a verbal agreement with Whitcomb's grandchildren.
Yes, I'm beginning to think that they can't be trusted.
They'll sell to Blake, help him wrap up this nomination.
I should've been the candidate, you know.
Now he is rising in the popularity polls.
Damn it.
Now, stop getting yourself upset and think about packing.
- Packing? For what? - I'm taking you away.
- It's called a vacation.
- Heh, a vacation? - You must be joking.
Where? - Now, that part is a secret.
So first thing in the morning, pack your clothes for warm weather.
And we're off on a plane I've chartered.
Sean, do you realise the primary is three days away, and l Yes, I'll have you back in three days.
Come on, you need a rest.
You've got nothing but Blake Carrington on your mind.
He isn't worth it.
You are.
- Look, I don't think - Come on, it's just a few days.
Just the two of us, alone.
You might be pleasantly surprised.
Well, I suppose it would do me good to get away for a few days.
I wasn't sure I was gonna win that round.
Hmm, you almost didn't, heh.
Oh, you are such a romantic, aren't you? You remind me of the first man I fell in love with - when I was 17 years old.
- Blake? All right, Mr.
Rowan.
I'll go away with you.
But you must promise to get me back here in time to vote.
- Have I ever lied to you? - Ha, not yet.
I've gotta make a phone call now.
Denver Mirror? Get me the editor at the night desk.
It's nice to have you home for dinner for a change.
It's nice to be home for a change.
I been so crazy with the team.
You know that we just might make the playoffs this year? Josh Harris is really turning things around, isn't he? Yeah.
We lucked out.
Don't be so modest.
It was more than luck, Steven.
You picked him.
Thanks.
So are you still a Josh Harris fan? We've been through this already, Steven.
If you're talking about the incident a couple of weeks ago, it was just a friendly little pass.
It was more than a friendly little pass.
Steven, when you moved back here, we agreed, separate beds and separate rooms.
That's the way it's been.
But I was hoping we'd spend more time together.
Maybe Josh is what I need.
Currying horses every day doesn't exactly fill a woman's needs.
I'm sorry.
I have been spending a lot of time with the team.
But I will make it up to you.
We'll spend more time together.
I promise.
Welcome back.
- Hello, Mary.
From the reports we got, you wowed them in Peoria.
Yeah.
It'd be terrific if I was running for governor of Illinois.
- I'll go see if anyone's located Arthur.
- Fine.
That'll be helpful.
- Lots of calls? - Lots and lots.
Plus those wires.
Good reaction from Montrose County? And Larimer.
You were a bit concerned, but the reports are both excellent.
It's the Mirror.
A special bulldog edition just arrived.
- I think you should see it.
Hmm.
Excuse me.
A little welcoming home from Alexis.
"The Denver Mirror endorses Ralph Dunbar of Grand Junction for the gubernatorial candidate in our vital upcoming primary.
" Listen to this: "The electorate has the right to ask the operative question: Is Blake Carrington capable of disengaging himself from his considerable business interests?" "Dunbar is a man of the people.
When push comes to shove, will Carrington come first or will Colorado?" But she knows you have to divest yourself of your holdings in Denver-Carrington if you're a candidate.
I'm sure she does.
Well, how can we let her do this to you? She has a knack for it.
And she certainly knows how to get my wife steamed up.
Blake, don't tease me.
We have to do something about her.
Now, you're a man of your word and Alexis knows that.
But if she prints something enough times, people are gonna start to believe it's the truth.
Some will, but some won't.
Either way, we can't stop her.
Darling, please.
We mustn't let Alexis sidetrack us.
This is gonna be a long, hard fight.
All right? All right.
Now, let's get back to what we were doing.
What about the TV spots? Well, we're fine.
You're set for filming tomorrow afternoon.
Good.
I'm speaking to a group of educators at breakfast, then I'm having lunch with the Citizen's League, and Lord help me, high tea with the voters council.
Blake, do you think I'm putting on weight? All those scrambled eggs and chicken a la king? - Well, now that you mention it - Oh, you rat, heh.
- I was able to locate Whitcomb.
Good.
Where is he? He's in his condo in Vail.
And he said no to your visit.
Well, you call him back and you tell him I know there's bad blood between the Whitcombs and the Carringtons, but I never thought I'd see the day when he'd be afraid to see me.
If you want music, we have cassettes on board.
No, I just wanted to get a news programme from Denver - to find out the latest on the primary.
- Sorry.
None of that.
- Ha, Sean.
- No, I said it.
This was to be your vacation, and on my terms.
Oh, how very gallant of you.
So where are you taking me? You'll see when we get there.
Hmm.
- You could be abducting me.
- Hey, that's true.
- Mm? - You're a very wealthy woman.
- Oh.
- I could be kidnapping you to, say, Ireland to help with the financing for the gun-running.
Oh, maybe you are kidnapping me.
Mm-hm.
Then why don't you tell the pilot to turn the plane around.
Heh, no.
It's all right.
I don't care where it is that you're taking me.
As long as we're together, I know it's going to be wonderful.
Here's to us.
Put my number on it.
Makes you an honorary Denver Monarch.
Well, thanks, Josh.
Is it safe? Um, sure.
No one here but us kids.
Mommy, look.
Wow, that's terrific.
But we've gotta get going, sweetheart.
- I have to show the guys first.
- Okay.
- He's a great kid.
- Yeah, I know.
Look, what happened at the stables I'm sorry.
Me too.
It won't happen again.
I like Steven, and I owe him.
Forget it.
It's history.
- Mommy, look.
That's nice.
- Daddy, look what Josh gave me.
- Ha, ha, heh.
That looks great.
You look very sharp.
I didn't know you were coming here today, Sammy Jo.
Oh, I didn't either.
Josh invited Danny to watch practise.
Come on, sweetheart, it's time to go.
- Bye, Daddy.
Bye, Josh.
- See you later.
See you, kid.
Harris, I could have gotten my son the football jersey.
Well, I thought he might enjoy practise.
Matter of fact, he did.
A lot.
Uh, Steven, I know I was wrong with Sammy Jo.
- Do you? - Yes.
You two have an agreement, and I respect that.
What happened between us was nothing Look, Harris, I don't want your shirts and I don't want your apologies.
I was watching you out on that practise field.
You lost your concentration, you were walking through the drills.
Just do us both a big favour.
Just play football.
And stay away from my family.
Well, you certainly are a man of mystery, Sean.
I mean, you fly us out here on a private jet, and then you dump us in this cabin, which seems to be miles away from anywhere.
And better yet, there's no phone, no radio, no TV and no neighbours.
- So - We don't dress for dinner.
So when is the happy hour? Well, that's every moment I spend with you, my gorgeous senora.
Well, I haven't seen the housekeeper and I presume there's a cook.
Hmm? Oh, yes.
There are both of us.
You and me, Alexis.
And we're on our own.
- Huh? You and me? - Mm-hm.
So, uh, what's for dinner then? We fish for it.
Fish? Sean, I don't like fish.
I only like caviar.
Heh, well, it's not quite caviar.
And, um, we're short on supplies.
I'll take the boat across in the morning and pick us up some things.
Now, why don't you change your clothes and we'll go catch us our dinner.
I got a much better idea.
Why don't the two of us go on a diet just for tonight, hmm? Would you like that? Go away.
All right.
All right.
Come in.
You're a hard man to track down, Arthur.
You don't listen, do you? I don't like being tracked down.
That's why I move around.
To get away from all these insects crawling on me and my bank account, and nibbling away at both.
Now, what do you want? And make it brief.
I wanna talk to you about Alexis Colby.
If you're referring to the fact that I'm gonna sell her that little patch of land, that's my decision.
Your decision? Or your children's? Those idiots can ride around in their Rolls-Royces.
I still make up my own mind.
- This conversation's terminated.
- Now, look, Arthur.
I know that you and my father didn't get along.
That he may or may not have messed up some kind of a deal for you He did.
I was just beginning in the business.
The old coot tried to walk away with the rainbow and leave me sitting there with an empty pot.
Except that it didn't turn out that way, did it? You both became very successful businessmen.
Now Arthur, I happen to know that you and my father shared a dream.
About Colorado.
About keeping this land the way it is.
A dream about keeping the land virginal and beautiful.
So that people could enjoy it and be proud of it.
Look, Carrington.
Where would this state, this country be if we decided the whole thing should be one big damned park? Nowhere.
Now, don't make me have to call security.
No.
No, don't bother.
I'm going.
But I want you to know that one way or another, I'm gonna make that dream come true.
Good morning.
Good morning.
- Good night? - Oh, yes.
Fabulous night, heh.
It's starting to cloud up.
I'd better get across the channel and get those supplies.
Oh, I'll come with you.
It's getting a little choppy out there.
Too rough for you, darling.
I'll be back before you know it.
What am I supposed to do while you're gone? - Miss me.
- Hmm, I'll try.
- What are you reading? - I don't think you'd be interested.
Come on now.
Of course I'd be interested.
- Let me see.
- Please, Jeff.
What is it? "Adventures into the Unknown; An Extra-Terrestrial Dossier.
" - Oh, boy.
- Don't start.
"Don't start"? When is this gonna stop? Yesterday, a phone call.
Today, a book.
- What phone call? - Oh, one of your weirdo friends called to remind you about some group meeting.
- When? - Sometime tomorrow morning.
And when were you gonna tell me about it? Jeff? Fallon, do you have any idea how concerned I am for you? I mean, this whole thing has a ring of lunacy to it.
When exactly is the meeting? People don't do this.
People don't see spaceships and they don't go up in them.
You're worried about me because I said I did? Yes, I am worried.
I can understand that.
Maybe if you met some of these people, came to a meeting with me.
I'm talking about our life together.
Our marriage.
And I want you to try to understand something that's going on in my life now.
Said she'd be here at 3.
She's half an hour late.
She'll be here.
Doctors offices are always crowded.
And then there's traffic.
- Darling.
- Yes? If Karen says it didn't take, that she's not pregnant Yeah.
Let's wait a little while before we try again, please? You aren't having second thoughts, are you? I think we might be rushing it.
This whole thing was your idea in the first place, remember? Yes, I do.
It's just that I never stopped to think that Well, heh, are we going into this before we've even had a chance to settle into marriage? I have settled into it.
Dana, do you realise that my child could be the grandson of the next governor of Colorado? Do you know what that could mean? - The doctor was running late.
- That's what we figured.
Would you like some wine? Thanks.
But, uh, no alcohol.
Not for the duration.
You are pregnant? Sure am.
- Heh.
- We're gonna have a baby.
Oh, Karen.
I can't tell you what this means.
Thank you.
I can't wait to see Blake's face when he hears about it.
Look, I'm afraid I have to go.
I'm late.
- But I'm glad I stayed to get this news.
KAREN: Heh.
- I'll see you soon.
- Yes.
And, you, I'll see you at home.
I, uh, caught the look on your face before.
Oh, it's wonderful news, heh.
But what? But I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and I I thought about today and what the doctor's report might be, and I thought that if Karen says, "I'm pregnant," then my husband, the man I love so much, will really be having a child.
But not by me.
By some other woman.
Dana.
I might be the biological mother of Adam's child, but that's where it ends.
- I appreciate your saying that - I mean it.
You and I are going to share this experience every step of the way.
And you think you feel funny, oh, my God, I hardly know the man.
Uh, I've never even seen him in a swimsuit.
What kind of knees does he have? Knobby? Gorgeous? Sort of in-between.
Dana, right now, I'm carrying Adam's child who will then become your child.
Legally.
Lovingly.
Period.
Okay? Good night.
There.
Done.
Anything else I can help you with, Jeff? No, no.
It's getting late.
You've gotta be getting tired and I'm just bushed.
Well, how does that feel? Well, I'd be a cad if I said "rotten.
" Heh, I'd punch you in the nose - Ha, ha.
- If you said "rotten.
" Heh.
- Yeah.
You've got pretty good fingers.
- Only good? No.
You've got very agile and very sensitive fingers.
Oh.
Well, the last campaign manager that I worked on said that my fingers were sensual.
But, um, I guess I'll just, uh, accept agile and soothing for now.
Hey, Dex.
Hi, Jeff.
Blake around? No, he's at the house if you need to reach him.
Ah, it can wait, uh, till morning.
Well, I'm out of here.
It's been a long day.
Thanks for the computer workout and the massage.
Any time.
If you wanna make the call, do it now, Dex.
I'm closing up.
It's nothing urgent.
Then do you wanna quit staring at me? Leslie, you are a piece of work.
First, you move in on Alexis, and now Jeff Colby.
Why don't you spare me your little observations? Whatever you can get, right? Grabbing with both hands? You'd rather be a first-rate Colby than a second-rate Carrington.
Isn't that what's going clickety-click through that non-stop brain of yours? What an interesting notion.
Why don't you stay tuned to find out? Oh, God, Sean.
Where are you? Shoot.
Sean.
Sean.
Sean.
Oh, Sean, Sean, Sean.
I've been so worried about you.
Oh, I thought you were dead.
I thought I'd ne - Look at you, you're soaking wet.
- Thought you'd never what? I went out on the beach.
I was calling your name.
The surf was so high.
All I could think about was you out there alone in that tiny boat.
You thought I was gonna die.
And I thought I was gonna die.
- Yes.
Weren't you frightened? - Oh, yes.
But do you know what I was more terrified about? Not drowning, not death.
I was afraid, Alexis, that I was gonna die and that I'd never see you again.
Never.
Ever.
Oh, Sean.
Oh, Sean.
Oh.
At first, it was like a terrible assault on my person as well as on my mind.
I boarded a spacecraft and I thought: "Who are these forms? Devils of some sort? Is this hell?" Did you share that feeling, any of you? I did.
Sure did.
I did too.
I felt controlled, completely controlled.
Exactly.
I couldn't move.
I thought I'd been tied.
But I hadn't been.
I kept asking myself, "What do they want from me? What?" But then, did a sort of a sense of peace come over you? Yes, it did.
But the endless time before that I'd rather not talk about that part.
But, Mr.
Alpert, that's why we're here.
It's for us all to know that we're not alone.
Now, for those who've been chosen to have these encounters, there seems to be a phenomenon where some of our children are having dreams of strange creatures visiting them.
Fallon, you have children.
A son, 6 years old, and a baby daughter.
Well, has your son ever mentioned anything like this to you? No, he hasn't.
How about you, Mr.
Colby? Heh, obviously, you're here with us this morning because you support your wife.
So I pose this question to you.
Did your son ever talk to you about dreams that he's had? Miss Lindquist, my son has no part of this, heh.
I know how you feel, Mr.
Colby.
We've tried to protect our family too.
I would appreciate it if you would answer my question, Mr.
Colby.
Miss Lindquist, if my son had ever even mentioned this to me, I'd have him off to a psychiatrist.
Fast.
Excuse me.
I have to go.
- Fallon, are you gonna join me? - No, I'm not.
Bye.
So do you wanna get married here, or go back to Denver? Heh, married? Sean, you can't be serious.
Okay.
If you hadn't lost all our groceries in the channel, we might have something else to eat other than tortillas and eggs.
I'm serious about you, Alexis.
I'm serious about us.
And you said it to me, we belong together.
Yes.
I know we said that, Sean.
But that was when we were, um Heh, well, you know.
And that's all it meant to you, a pleasant way to spend the time? No, that's not all it meant to me.
Heh, I adore you, you know that.
You're kind, you're strong, you're very romantic.
You manned your oars through thick and thin just to get back here to me.
But how can I marry you? I hardly know you.
Do you wanna know how long my father knew my mother before they got married? - Hmm? - Two weeks and not one day longer.
- Heh, was he as charming as you? - Oh, yes.
Mm-hm.
- More charming, by far.
- Unh, ha, ha.
- And do you know how he proposed? - No, heh.
He said, "Wed me today, lassie, or you'll miss me sore tomorrow.
" And they spent all of their lives together, and it was the best marriage I ever knew or heard about.
Alexis, do you believe in fate? Yes.
When you went off that bridge into that river, and I just happened to be driving by, that was fate.
When I was living alone, splitting logs and cursing my empty life, you were looking for me, don't tell me that wasn't fate.
You've known men, Alexis.
And I have known women.
Now, what we have together, where would we ever find it again? Oh, Sean.
Wed me today, lassie, or you'll miss me sore tomorrow.
Steven's not here.
What is it you want? You want the truth? I was driving around and I decided I wanted to see you.
Well, I'm in a rush.
Danny's at his grandfather's house - and they're all waiting for me.
- Ooh, uh I wanted to see you and talk to you, Sammy Jo.
About us.
- I'm leaving.
- Just listen to me.
- I don't wanna listen to you.
- Hey.
What is it? Really? Are you afraid about us? That's it, isn't it? Listen, Josh.
Steven and I love each other in our own way.
Very deeply.
Some people might not understand that, but we do.
He's, uh, a gentle, caring man.
And I can't hurt him.
I wouldn't hurt him for anything or anyone.
Hi, darling.
Pick a dress.
The green.
It complements your eyes.
Aw, mm.
Ha-ha-ha.
- What's that? - What do you think? Oh, they're beautiful.
I love them.
Do you think Karen will? - Karen? - Yeah.
Oh, I'm sure she will.
I spent nearly half an hour in Jensen's just trying to decide.
But she's worth it.
We owe her so much.
Is there any hot water? If there isn't, complain to the management.
As soon as the telecast is over, get a hold of research.
Tell them I want polling information by midnight.
Good luck tonight, Jeff.
Thank you.
We're gonna need all of that we can get.
You're doing a terrific job for Uncle Blake.
Fallon.
Remember you wanted to know who told me about your experience out in the desert? You just saw her leave.
Leslie? How does she know? She has her ways.
About a lot of things.
Excuse me, Miss Fallon, Mr.
Dexter, the telecast is about to start.
Thank you, Gerard.
I hate this doggone makeup.
No point in getting upset.
It has to be done.
I know, I know.
It still doesn't mean I have to like it.
- Mr.
Carrington? - Yes? Sorry to rush, but we'll be ready in a few minutes.
Oh, I'll be right there.
Okay.
Thank you.
All right.
- Blake.
Arthur.
Oh, darling, this is Arthur Whitcomb.
This is my wife, Krystle.
Hello.
Uh, I've heard a lot about you.
I'll bet you have.
I was wrong.
You were right.
Here's the deed to that land.
I thought you felt Never mind what you thought.
It's what I want.
- Thank you, Arthur.
Don't thank me, Blake.
Just go out there and be the best governor this state ever had.
Mrs.
Carrington.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
This is a deed for 70,000 of the most beautiful acres of timberland in the state of Colorado.
It was generously given, after some persuasion, by Mr.
Arthur whitcomb to the people of this state.
Now, there are some who might accuse me of strong-arm tactics, and they'd be right, because I tried my darndest to help preserve this acreage for you, the people of this state of Colorado.
And this is only the beginning.
We're going to have more jobs.
We're going to have more subsidies for the disadvantaged, for education, for the social services, all of them.
And we're going to help to preserve the beauty of our land as much as we can.
Yes, it is possible.
And I intend to prove it.
Hey, heh.
Well-written.
Well-written, Jeff.
- Sorry I'm late.
- What happened? Two of the stable boys got in an argument and I refereed.
No big deal.
You missed a good speech by Blake.
I think it might have clinched the primary for him.
- My God, you look beautiful.
- Ha, oh, thank you.
The bride wore red.
I'm sorry, it's the only dress I packed.
Good morning, judge.
He says, "You're very beautiful.
" I know what he said, heh.
He's a very discriminating man.
He asked me if I will take this lovely, very, very lovely woman to be my wife.
Now and for always.
- Yes, I do.
- Heh.
And do you, Alexis, take this man, Sean, who is not worthy, but who loves you with such passion of infinite proportions, as your lawful wedded husband? Heh, that's not what he said, but It's a loose translation.
Yes, I do.
I do.
Um He said I may kiss the bride to my heart's content.
Mm, so, what are you waiting for? Ha, ha.
Oh, Sean.
And now, Mrs.
Rowan, let's go home.
All right.
Aren't you gonna join us, Daddy? The family is in the living room watching the early returns.
We've got a little time yet.
There won't be any substantial results for quite a while.
Come here.
Sit down and talk to me for a couple of minutes.
What are you doing in here all by yourself, anyway? Oh, I'm just thinking.
Can't a fellow do that? Yes.
- Tell me, now.
How is everything? - Fine, just fine.
Everything going well with you and Jeff? Daddy, I'd rather not get into that.
- Yes, but, Fallon, I couldn't help - No, I mean it.
Please, not now.
Not tonight of all nights.
All right.
I just thought if there was a problem, that I might be able to help.
Well, there is a problem, but it's not monumental.
Haven't you told me many times about commitment and hanging in and to try dealing with problems ourselves? Well, that's what I'm doing.
So how's that for the obedient daughter? There's nothing serious, huh? Jeff and I have to work it out between us.
Now, tonight is your night.
You're on your way to becoming governor.
- Well, maybe.
- Definitely.
- You're gonna be a great governor.
- Let's put that aside for a moment.
The governorship and the election.
Whatever.
Darling, I just want you to know that if you need me, I'm here for you, and I always will be.
I know that, Daddy.
And we'll talk about this again soon.
I promise.
Thank you.
Now, let's go and watch the returns.
- Oh, heh.
All right.
- Heh.
Oh, what a place to spend our honeymoon night.
Oh, we've got the rest of our lives together, Sean.
Now, I've got to finish this dictation and then we'll go, all right? Leslie.
I'll be in sometime tomorrow, but I want you to cancel all of my meetings.
I want you to see that Legal is up on the Dillard matter, and I want it cleared up once and for all.
Scratch the meeting with Congressman Henderson on Wednesday.
Tell him I'll get back to him.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I, uh, didn't know that you were back.
I was gonna drop these by for you to sign.
Well, I'll do them tomorrow.
Meanwhile, I left some notes for you.
You can do them in the morning.
I will.
Interesting about Uncle Blake, isn't it? What's so interesting about him? Two networks made an early projection that he'll win the primary.
- What? - I'm sure that Mr.
Whitcomb's donating the timberland to the state while you were away didn't hurt either.
Leslie, I don't find that so interesting.
Why don't you, um, leave all that, do it tomorrow.
- Good night.
Good night.
Oh, he sweet-talked Whitcomb into caving in to him.
He wanted to cheat me and now thinks he's gonna run for governor.
Look, Alexis.
This is our honeymoon.
We have other things to think of.
This is just the primary.
Blake's not governor yet.
And he never will be.
Never.
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
My family and I would like you to know how grateful we are for all your many kindnesses during this campaign.
And I personally would like to thank you for your unflagging support in helping me to win this primary.
But we are not going to stop here.
We're going on.
Thank you very much.
- Mrs.
Carrington, how do you feel? - Oh, I feel terrific.
As my husband just said, it's just the beginning, and we're going all the way.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
Thank you, heh.
Dad, I've gotta take Sammy Jo home and then I'm taking off to Houston.
- So congratulations again, heh.
- Thank you, son.
Sure you want Danny to spend the night? Certainly.
We told him we'd have him over at the house to celebrate with us.
You don't mind, do you? Danny would mind if we said no.
Oh, Steven, don't go yet, please.
Dad, I have an announcement to make, if I may.
Yes, indeed.
What is it? Well, the governor-to-be is also a new grandfather-to-be.
We're gonna have a baby.
Well, heh - Dana, congratulations.
- Thank you.
- Need any help? - No, I'll be fine.
Thanks.
How about company? Like me.
I thought it would be kind of fun if I came along with you.
Oh, Sammy Jo, it's a business trip.
It won't be any fun at all.
- What about Danny? - Heh, he'll be fine at the house.
He has L.
B.
To play with and Jeannette and Mrs.
Gunnerson to spoil him.
We'd hardly ever see each other.
Well, I'd settle for and a cup of hot chocolate late at night.
How about that? Not this time, I just I've got too much to do.
Steven, I just don't wanna be alone tonight.
I'll be back before you know it.
Really.
Of course.
Steven, is that you? No, Sammy Jo.
Your houseman let me in.
He's a fan.
I told him I wanted to see you for a minute - and he thought it'd be okay.
- You shouldn't be here, Josh.
I know.
You want me to leave? Hello? Why did you call me here? No, no, it's too late.
No, it's already done.
I married the woman.
Don't call me here again, is that clear? Who was that on the phone? - Wrong number.
Oh, well, just see that there aren't any more of them.
