Dynasty s08e14 Episode Script

Alexis, with you in this race, you can't win and I can't win.
Only Jim Rayford is going to win.
- Possibly.
- There's only one way to stop him.
You withdraw from this race.
I am not going to quit.
Not now or not ever.
But I have a suggestion for you.
Why don't you quit? The answer is: Not a chance.
Last time on Dynasty: Now, stop putting yourself down.
You don't have to do this to yourself.
I just feel so alone.
You're welcome to the Ioneliest club in town.
The reason I couldn't conceive is because I had an abortion once.
The boy I was with that night was Michael Torrance.
Are you saying I was the father? Here's a campaign schedule for Blake Carrington in Grand Junction today.
- You know what to do? - I know exactly what to do.
What is it? What's the matter? I don't know, sir.
Just stalled.
I'll go take a look.
- What do you think? - I don't see anything, sir.
I'll try it again.
Hey! I'm afraid, Mrs.
Carrington, if anything does happen to detain your husband, we will have to proceed without him.
Why, you can't do that.
Unless we can find someone willing to sit in for him.
- Oh, well, that's out of the question.
- I'll do it.
Before you took over Colbyco on the death of your second of four husbands, tell me, did you ever hold down a job? If you're asking me was I ever a secretary whose main job it was to bring coffee to a male chauvinist boss, the answer is no.
What could Blake Carrington possibly be doing that is more important than being with us here tonight? I'm sure that whatever detained him had to be very legitimate.
I've had all I can stomach from you.
Easy now.
You are too tough.
Here we go.
How far do you think we've run? - I don't know.
- I think we've gone far enough.
No.
Heh.
- What are you thinking about? Mm.
I guess I'm still thinking about that debate last night.
Oh, by the way, Bill Cochran called the house just before we left.
He said that you were great last night, the way you handled Alexis, just wonderful.
Blake, the more I think about it, the more I feel that Alexis forced Colby into marrying her so she could get his money.
How? That's a fair question, isn't it? How? I don't know.
I don't know, but I'm gonna find out.
You know, Blake, we have to do something.
Let's expose her for what she really is, fight fire with fire.
I'm sure she's behind that limousine leaving you stranded last night.
How can we prove that? What are we supposed to do? Just let her go on playing dirty till it costs you the election? Is that what you want? Darling, what I want is for the voters to make a decision based on the issues in this campaign.
And that's what they're gonna get from me.
But it has to be done my way.
You know, I'm free for lunch today, if you're not passing out "Carrington for Governor" buttons.
What do you say we go down to that little Italian place downtown that you love so much, huh? I may be busy.
All right, but I'm gonna phone you anyway.
Before you took over Colbyco on the death of your second of four husbands, tell us, did you ever hold down a job? - You've been up since 6.
- Five.
You're not feeling guilty about last night, are you? - I thought it was a brilliant idea.
- Mm.
Well, your man kept Blake away, but it didn't work.
I wanted to debate Rayford alone.
Aside from a few snags, I thought you were great.
Yes, well, I don't need all your flattery and kind words.
What I need is professional help.
Who are you phoning? I'd like to place a call to a Russ Kelton in Washington, D.
C.
No.
No, I don't know the number.
His office is somewhere near the White House.
He runs his own public relations firm.
When you get him, tell him that Alexis Colby is calling and it's urgent.
- Hello? - Sammy Jo, it's Adam.
Yes, Adam? I was wondering, is Dana out there with you at Delta Rho? Uh, yes, she is.
I called last night to tell the family - that she was here and safe.
- I'd like to talk to her.
I'm sorry, Adam.
She can't come to the phone right now.
I see.
Would you ask her to call me, please? - Yes.
I'll leave her the message.
- I appreciate it.
Thank you.
Okay.
Bye.
He sounds really anxious to talk to you.
Why don't you just call him back? No.
You know, I feel a little bit warm.
I think I'll go out for a walk.
- Dana.
- Sammy Jo, I can't talk to him.
Can you understand that? I can't.
Adam.
- Sean, what is it? - I need your opinion on something.
I've just gotten wind of an oil deal in Natumbe.
And I wonder if you'd look into it personally.
- I already have.
- Don't tell me.
- Denver-Carrington? - It was offered to Denver-Carrington.
- Steven turned it down.
- That wasn't very smart of him.
But then again, I don't think your brother is as clever as he'd like people to believe.
Look, what I heard, there's an oil glut in Natumbe, a big one, and this is a good time for companies like Colbyco to step in.
There are risks involved.
I hear the government's pretty shaky there.
There could be a revolution.
Life is shaky, Adam.
Just think of the profits.
They could be substantial.
I agree with you about the potential profits and I think Colbyco should get in on this.
Good.
I'll authorise it.
You've got business smarts, Adam.
You know, Mrs.
Carrington, your calling me was a very pleasant surprise.
- It's good to see you again, Mr.
Wilson.
- Ha, ha.
Now, how can I help you? Well, actually, I've, uh, come to ask you some questions about Alexis Colby.
Alexis.
I loathe the woman, in case you didn't know.
Fired me as Colbyco's chief counsel right after Cecil's death.
Without reason, without even a backward glance.
Mr.
Wilson, I need your help.
I'm looking for information about what went on between Alexis and Cecil at the time of their marriage.
Cecil? Mrs.
Carrington, I don't know what went on.
If you wanna find out anything about that, you go to the lady herself.
I was hoping you could give me some insight Please.
Please, stop right there.
I mean, what you call insight, I call a breach of confidence.
Even if the man involved is dead.
If this was what you wanted to see me about, I could've saved you a trip.
Well, I'm due in court in about 20 minutes, so Yes, of course.
Thank you for seeing me.
Sean, I need the What do you think you're doing? - I was just - Snooping.
Now, listen to me, I won't have it.
It so happens that I was looking for the Grodin file.
You were late so I figured I'd better get it so I could take care of my work.
That okay? I do like to earn my bucks around here.
If I came on a little strong, I'm sorry, Leslie.
That's all right.
I won't report you to the boss.
I mean, heh, after all, she's the reason why you're late, hmm? Mm.
Look, in the future, you wait for me before you come in here, okay? Why? Is there some secret hiding place I don't know about? Or other little secrets aside from the fact that you and I are sleeping together behind Alexis' back? Grodin file.
Here you go.
You didn't answer my question.
What are you hiding? Let's just say it's my admiration for your persistence.
Come on.
Get out of here.
I've got some work to catch up on.
It's working, Dad.
Alexis is going to be sorry for what she did to you and Kirby.
Carrington and his family are gonna pay too.
I won't stop.
I'll never stop until they have destroyed each other.
I promise you, Dad.
I'll make them pay.
"Joseph Arlington Aynders.
" Welcome.
L I hope I didn't frighten you.
Heh, maybe just a little bit.
Cemeteries make some people nervous.
- Are you kin to him? - Sorry? Mr.
Aynders.
Are you a relative come to pay respects? No, I was just visiting another grave and I stopped by to admire the flowers.
Roses out of season don't come cheap.
Mr.
Aynders must've been some important gent, hmm? Well, maybe not all by himself.
But he was butler for those rich Carringtons.
- The Carringtons? - Yep.
The same Mr.
Blake Carrington who's running for governor.
I've often thought how sad and shocked he must've been when he heard the news about Mr.
Aynders.
What was the news? How the man shot himself in the head, clear to oblivion.
Mr.
Carrington must've said to himself,"Why? Why did he do it?" Why did he do it? Mm.
Well, nice talking to you.
It makes for a pleasant change around here.
- Heh.
Thanks.
- Bye.
Nurse Hall, call your station.
Nurse Hall, call your station.
Dr.
Loudon? Oh, Mrs.
Carrington.
Hello.
Are you visiting someone here? Well, actually, I came to talk to you.
I hope you have a few minutes to spare.
Anytime for you.
What is it? Doctor, you were the attending physician at the time Cecil Colby had his heart attack, weren't you? I don't understand.
What? I was just wondering, Alexis was with him at his bedside during his illness, wasn't she? Well, let's just say that, uh, she's not the first wife who remained at her husband's bedside during a crisis.
And that was a grave crisis.
But they weren't married then, doctor.
Yes, that's true, they weren't.
I do have to make rounds, Mrs.
Carrington, if you'll excuse me.
I just have a few more questions.
Oh, look, just in case this has some bearing on the upcoming election, I'm not voting either for Mrs.
Colby or Mr.
Carrington.
I'm casting my ballot for James Rayford.
Is that honest enough for you? Yes, it is.
But what I'm asking you goes beyond politics.
It has to do with what went on in Cecil Colby's room.
Which I'm afraid is not your affair, Mrs.
Carrington.
Well, I guess I am out of line, but this is very important.
Yes, you're right.
It is out of line.
Mrs.
Carrington? I heard what you asked the doctor.
I was Mr.
Colby's private duty nurse.
I loved that man.
He was so good and he deserved better than her.
- You were his nurse? When? - When he died.
And I certainly do remember Alexis Colby.
She could be such a rude woman at times.
And what she asked of Dr.
Loudon, I think you'll find very interesting.
Dana.
How long are you gonna keep avoiding Adam? Look, Denver's only a few miles away.
Why don't you drive back and talk to him? Sammy Jo, you don't understand.
Adam is never going to forgive me for not telling him the truth before we got married.
I know he won't.
So you're gonna run away from it all? Oh, boy, is that ever gonna thrill somebody.
- Who? - Dear loveable Alexis.
You know she's gonna be on cloud nine when she finds out that you and Adam split.
Dana, don't give her the pleasure.
Talk to Adam.
He knows you had the abortion.
He knows he would've been the baby's father.
And the secret's out.
Shouldn't you deal with it? - Come in, Mr.
Kelton.
- It's Russ.
And you're Alexis.
You don't mind if I call you that right off, do you? What I do mind, Russ, is that at $5,000 a day, you are 40 minutes late.
Well, my flight from Washington was delayed.
Yes, by six minutes.
An hour ago, I checked.
Caught in a fib.
Come and sit down.
Well, the truth is, I was paged at the airport.
And I had to call my office and help un-snag a snag involving a I'm afraid I can't tell you who.
Anyway, this is not the best way to begin a friendship.
I'm an image-maker.
The best.
But I don't want mine tarnished already in your book.
Deal? Deal.
Heh.
Now, um, I would like you to see this, uh, promotional campaign video that I've had made.
It shows me at my office, my desk, making telephone calls.
I think that the commentary should say something like: "Here's a woman who knows what she's doing.
A woman who can take charge, a woman who can make decisions.
In fact, a woman who can run this state.
" Now, I have another one here that I'd like you to see.
Well, if they're more of the same, don't bother.
What? Well, if that's what you want, answering the phone in your home, in your car, in your limo, in your bathtub, I'm afraid I'm not your man, Alexis.
I don't understand.
In a phrase, you're coming on too strong.
Like a Mack truck.
I think that strength is an attribute in a leader.
Look at Mrs.
Thatcher.
There are strengths and there are strengths.
I see.
So, uh, tell me something.
Heh.
What else am I paying you for? Well, I throw in extras.
Like the way you dress.
Well, what about the way I dress? Well, I've seen photos of you in Vogue and Harper's Bazaar, and some of the other leading fashion magazines.
- Not some, Russ, all.
- Fine.
Except you're going to have to change your style somewhat.
Change my style? Heh, but I'm known for my excellent taste.
Good, but now you've got to start to underplay.
Go for pastels.
- Pastels? - Yes.
Um Pink, pale greens, pale blues, peach.
Stay away from blacks and reds and yellows, and too much white.
But black and red are my favourite colours and I adore white.
And I'm sure white adores you.
But don't forget, most of the voters out there can't afford your cleaning bills.
- Make sense? - Yes.
- Yes, it does.
- Good.
Now, let's talk about why you should be governor and not Blake Carrington or James Rayford.
All right.
Uh, would you like a cup of tea? No, thanks.
I have my own private stock of mineral water that I carry with me wherever I go.
- Care for some? - No, no, thank you.
Now, who is Alexis Colby Rowan, and why do we want her in the Governor's Mansion? Well, first, you're a woman, an eminently attractive woman.
But looks don't count for all that much.
What you mean to the citizens out there does.
So, what we're going to base your campaign on is what the voters will come to know as your personal and business styles.
To wit, that you're a friend to women and a partner to men.
- You like? - Yes.
Yes, I like.
Good.
Now, add to that that you're a role model, that you're an '80s woman, and with the female vote alone, you can be governor of Colorado.
Which brings me to your children.
There's Steven, Fallon and Adam.
Correct? - Yes.
- Well, they're a part of all this, Alexis.
A vital part.
But from what I've read and heard, they're all supporting their father.
Now, you're gonna need their help too.
- But, unfortunately - No buts.
We have to have it.
All right.
If it's their support I need, it's their support I'll get.
It's been a long time since you've set foot on Colbyco soil, Steven.
What's the occasion? I understand that Sean is bringing Colbyco into the Vitron Oil deal.
That's right.
Why, that doesn't bother you.
The financial wizard who opposed that deal for Denver-Carrington.
That's not the point.
What's the story here, Adam? You wearing both hats in this little game? Game? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Knowing you, you had to have some input in his decision.
Why'd you convince him to go for it? Maybe I can tell you why.
So that you could sucker Denver-Carrington as well.
Do you care to explain that? I'd be happy to.
There's a big price tag on this.
And maybe Colbyco isn't willing to put up all the money.
You forgot a maybe, Steven.
Maybe I wanna see you sweat for a while before I throw my vote with Fallon's and do make this a Denver-Carrington deal.
I warn you, I won't put up with your playing both sides of the fence.
And I won't put with this.
This is my office, Steven.
I have more important things to do than fight with you.
You wanna fight, work it off in the gym.
I see.
Uh, would you please have Reverend Downen call me back as soon as possible? Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Who's Reverend Downen? Uh, he performed Alexis' and Cecil's wedding.
Krystle, why in the world do you keep pursuing this? - Because I have to, Blake.
- Look, darling Blake, I'm not gonna give up on this until some questions I have are answered.
Even if I ask you to let it go? Yes.
My God.
I was afraid you were never coming back to me.
How could I not come back? - I love you.
- I love you.
Oh, Dana.
Those awful things I said to you last night.
- I hurt you so much.
I'm sorry.
- I know.
I know.
- Tell me you really believe that.
- I do.
I really do.
- But - But what? - I'm ashamed to say it.
- Say what? I drove out to Karen's last night.
And I saw you come outside with her and kiss her on the cheek.
And I thought, "He doesn't want me.
Oh I'm not carrying his child.
I'm not the one he wants to be with.
" Dana.
Karen was telling me to forgive you.
Forgive you? My God.
What happened back then was my fault too.
Oh, shh.
You don't have to say it.
You were young, you weren't yourself that night.
You weren't my prince, that boy I worshipped from afar.
That boy who forced himself on you, and look at the cost.
But that's all past.
I love you more than life.
- Nothing can hurt us now.
- No.
Nothing and no one.
No one, not even Sean.
Sean? Why would he hurt us? Dana, I want you to tell me.
Why? - She's a damned liar.
- You blackmailed her.
You used what you knew about her life and you forced her to spy for you.
- Admit it.
- Hey.
I admit to nothing, except that she confided in me because of you.
She was afraid how you would react if you learned the truth.
If you ever threaten or try to hurt Dana again, I'll kill you.
Yeah? Heh.
- Will you kill your mother too? - Meaning? - She's known about this all along.
- What? Hey, come on.
It's no secret Alexis never really accepted Dana.
But she adores you.
She already has plans for you to take over for her at Colbyco.
Don't try to bribe me, Rowan.
Well, you'll find out it's not bribery.
So whatever happened between me, Dana and yourself, it's over.
It's finished.
But your future is just beginning.
Unless, that is, you find yourself unhappy here.
I meant what I said.
Stay away from my wife.
I told you, Adam, it's history.
But I want you to think about new horizons, new opportunities.
So that's it.
It's official.
The private poll that Danny took of his classmates.
Every one of them wants you for governor.
So they can all get a day off from school when I'm inaugurated.
- Yeah, right.
Heh.
- Well, I can't let my grandson - and his classmates down, can I? - Absolutely not.
Listen, I have to go.
I have a meeting.
Oh, it was good of you to drop by, son.
Oh! Steven, I've been meaning to talk to you about something.
Yeah? I get the feeling that things aren't going too well at Denver-Carrington between you and your brother.
Where did you get this feeling? No, don't bother to answer.
It was Adam, right? Don't blame Adam.
He had nothing to do with it.
Oh.
Well, listen, Dad, I'm gonna be late for this meeting.
But don't worry, everything's gonna be okay between Adam and me.
- Talk to you later.
- Mm-hm.
I wanna talk to you, Fallon.
Not about the best movie you've seen this month, for sure.
I'm not in the mood for one of your little jokes.
What are you in the mood for? I wanna know why you went running to Dad and told him about the Vitron Oil deal and about what was going on between you and Adam and me.
- Look, I didn't run to him.
- You didn't? No.
And I didn't tell him anything either.
I didn't have to.
Come on, Steven, he's our father.
He has a sense about these things.
And that's it? Not quite.
I'm still for the oil deal.
Very much for it.
That's great.
Maybe you should just drop everything and fly to Natumbe and check it out for yourself.
I could use a little trip.
So I may just do that.
In fact, I will.
Thanks for the suggestion.
There.
I think this memo says it all.
Thanks.
That was quick.
You know, Sean, I've been thinking.
Since we're so in tune with one another, I just don't feel a middle-management position is right for me.
I see myself more like your executive assistant.
Look, I really don't have time for your small talk right now, Leslie.
Save it for the bedroom, okay? Where we're very, very close, right? Sean, I want to extend the proximity.
I wanna work with you, not for you.
Ah.
Well, don't you think Alexis would be, uh, surprised if I told her suddenly you were made? Well, what was that title? Executive assistant.
It has a nice ring, don't you think? Heh.
And I want it real soon or else.
Or else what? No more assignations? I don't think you really want it that way.
Oh Or else this.
I had it photo-stated at the newspaper morgue.
Um Do you know something, Leslie? Heh.
I was just thinking, I realise more and more you're a very, very bright girl with a very bright future.
Heh.
You're not too bad yourself.
Whoa, whoa.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Where do you think you're off to? I'm gonna stay with Daddy while you're in Africa.
That's right, son.
Uh Sweetheart, go wait in the car.
Daddy will be right out.
Okay.
Jeff, why are you making arrangements for L.
B.
- without talking to me? - Maybe you can explain to me what trip takes precedence over being a good parent? It's not a vacation.
It's business.
With the oil minister of Natumbe, I hear.
Right.
Harry Thresher.
Dex knows him from way back.
Great.
Jeff, you take business trips all the time.
Nobody questions you, calls you a bad father.
Whether you like it or not, Dex and I are gonna check out that African oil deal.
Oh, and then what? I won't let you suggest I'm an incompetent parent just because it's the only way you've got left to control me.
Ha, ha.
This argument is disintegrating real fast.
Wait.
I won't be manipulated by you.
I've always been very fair to the children.
Now you're playing dirty pool.
What will you do when I'm gone? Start a custody suit against me? If I don't see you before you leave, have a nice trip.
It was right there in the hospital, I married Cecil Colby and the former Alexis Carrington.
Well, I'd hardly call it your average wedding ceremony, would you? No, I certainly wouldn't.
For the reasons I've cited, Mrs.
Carrington.
Well, I must hurry off.
- Oh, I hope I haven't kept you.
- Not at all.
By the way, I'm very excited about your husband's campaign.
I'm sure he'll do very well.
- Well, I'll tell him you said that.
- Thank you.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
How heart warming to see you communicating with the good reverend.
I hope you were saying a prayer for Blake.
He's gonna need it.
- Your family's waiting for you.
- Thank you, Tommy.
Look, I assure you all that my campaign is not a personal vendetta against your father.
I just simply think that I have a lot to offer this state, and that I will make an excellent governor.
And I really wanna have my children next to me during my campaign.
- Mother.
- Yes, Fallon? This is very hard for me to say.
Well, just say it.
I love you.
You know that.
But I can't support you.
I've already committed myself to Daddy.
Totally.
Yeah, I understand.
What about you, Steven? It's not that we're choosing one parent over another.
- I want you to know that.
- Go on.
But I gave Dad my word that I'd support him.
I It just wouldn't be right for me to even think of switching.
I'm sorry.
I really am.
I see.
Adam? I hope that you don't feel the same way.
I'll appear with father if he continues to ask me.
But I'll also help you however I can.
Just tell me when to be there.
Oh, darling.
Oh, thank you.
Thank you.
I knew I could count on you.
Just as you could count on me when you came to Denver.
It's the most wonderful present that you could ever give me.
I really thank you.
So, please, all of you excuse me.
I'll never forgive you for this, Blake.
Never.
Well, they're all good.
I think this one is probably the best for our purposes.
- Blake.
- Good morning.
Would you two gentlemen mind leaving us alone? It's not a good morning.
It's a very bad morning.
To what do I owe the honour of this visit? Have you spoken to any of our children since last night? I saw Fallon.
- Did she tell you what happened? - Yes, she told me some of the details.
So you know that your unmitigated selfishness has helped to rip my children from me.
Alexis, it was your decision to become a candidate in this election that forced the kids to choose sides.
It's that simple.
- Is it? - Yes.
Was it simple when you exiled me from my children all those years ago, turned them against me? That was all in the past.
Things are fine between you and the children now.
Don't try to soft- pedal this situation, Blake.
Don't you dare try.
Was is simple when you divested yourself of your Denver-Carrington holdings and left the children to run them, thus forcing them to choose you? And now when I need my family, they've turned against me.
They didn't turn against you.
You're overreacting.
All they did was level with you about where they stand in this election.
Overreacting? Well, I'm gonna level with you now.
I'm going to win this election, Blake, and I don't need the children to do it.
I don't need anyone.
I'm so glad you were both able to fly over.
Just as I regret the fact that Denver-Carrington isn't in on the deal.
But Colbyco is, or hasn't that deal been closed, Mr.
Thresher? It has.
Their first shipment's being loaded onto one of their tankers right here in the harbour.
Their profit is going to be enormous.
Well, that's one of the things that troubles me about all this, Harry.
You were never a philanthropist before.
Heh.
You're right, Dex.
I'm an entrepreneur, not a bleeding heart.
But I'm sure you're aware of the oil situation here in Natumbe.
When there's a glut, the price goes down.
According to these charts, you're pumping high-gravity crude.
How can we be sure it isn't transmission fluid? If anyone but you asked that question, I'd have him thrown out of here.
But you, you're forgiven.
Any other questions? There's been talk that the government of Natumbe is unstable, that there's even the chance of a revolution.
Is there any truth to that? As you said, there's talk.
That's all it is.
Very empty talk.
Besides, I'm not fond of revolutions.
In fact, I like to be as far from them as possible.
I'm sorry, but I must prepare for a meeting.
Are your hotel accommodations all right? This isn't exactly Paris or Rome, but we try our best.
Oh, yes.
They're fine.
Thank you.
We'll stay in touch.
- Bad stuff? - No, not at all.
This is high gravity crude I filched from the tanker after we left Thresher's office.
You mean I guessed right and Steven was wrong? Well, it seems that way.
I'm still not satisfied, Fallon.
Guys like Thresher don't change all that much.
- Is there a plane out tonight? - Next one's in the morning.
You doing anything for dinner? First, I'm gonna call my kids.
And then I'm dining out with you to celebrate my next move.
Which is? When I get back to Denver, I'm gonna tell Steven this is a worthwhile deal, it is on the up-and-up.
Well, he has to go for it now.
Dexter and the young woman were here, and I know they're satisfied.
All right, Harry.
Now you can complete the first shipment of oil.
So we can get down to the business at hand.
Right.
Come on over this way.
Come on over here.
- I like it.
Ha-ha-ha! Come on, come on, baby.
Come on, come on.
Come on here.
Hey.
Look at her.
Isn't she amazing? How does she do that? You've had a little too much to drink.
You should go back to the hotel.
Oh, no, not yet.
It's fun here.
I wanna stay and enjoy myself.
Hey, hey.
Oh, come back here.
Come back.
Hey.
Come on.
Come on.
Don't be shy.
Get up there.
Whoa! Hey.
Oh, boy.
Shake it, shake it.
- Ha, ha! What's that for? - It's payment for our evening together.
Oh, don't Oh, I have a date.
- Let's call it a night.
- I've got an investment here.
Let's just say, uh, you're out of business.
- All right, Fallon, time to go home.
- Oh, Dex.
Time to go home.
Don't be such a spoilsport.
Dex, I'm having a good time.
- Ha-ha-ha.
- Okay, let's go.
Ow! Dex, please.
Ooh.
Ow! What do you want, Krystle? To go over a few things with you.
- Such as? - Your life.
Ah, ha.
Is this some sort of joke? I don't think so.
I'm getting closer and closer to the truth of who and what you really are.
I just need a few answers to round things out.
How did you get your fortune, Alexis? - I'm calling security - How? I inherited it from my late husband, Cecil Colby.
I find it strange that Cecil would wanna marry you so soon - after suffering a heart attack.
- Oh, do you? Well, frankly, I don't give a damn what you find, Krystle.
A few other people find it bizarre as well, including his nurse you were so nasty to.
You remember Dr.
Loudon, don't you? What he said when you told him that you were going to marry Cecil in the hospital? She told me about your wedding plans.
- I won't allow it.
- Oh, but of course you will.
I just said I won't allow it.
What you just said just may get you into a bit of trouble around here, doctor.
You see, my fiance happens to be on the board of trustees of this hospital.
Right now, your fiance, my patient, is a very sick man lying in a bed in this hospital.
And I won't permit that kind of strain on his heart.
Then you said, "I have every intention of marrying Mr.
Colby when I want to, doctor.
" Remember, Alexis? The minister you saw me with at The Carlton the other night does.
For inasmuch as you have consented together in holy wedlock, I pronounce you husband and wife.
You may kiss the bride.
According to the minister, you appeared somewhat concerned for a moment that he might not go through with his vows.
I was concerned that Cecil might not What? That he might die before you could marry him? How dare you burst into my office with your disgusting and false accusations.
Oh, I doubt that they're false.
Besides, all I have to do is use your tactics.
Just spread the word and eventually, the damage will be done.
Just as you've tried to damage Blake.
I swear to you, Alexis, if you don't withdraw from this campaign, I'll see to it that an anonymous source plants these stories in every newspaper and television station in this country.
Well, they're all lies, so you'll never get away with it.
Oh, yes, I would.
You're bluffing, Krystle.
You know you are.
Am I? Watch me.
