Dynasty s09e04 Episode Script
Body Trouble
Daddy, Krystle is having serious problems.
You don't know what is involved.
At least tell Krystle.
She doesn't know what's happening.
We'll all know about it soon enough.
By the process of elimination, you're finally the favourite son.
I don't have to take this.
- That's enough.
- Stop it.
If Adam said that he didn't do it, he didn't.
Stop it.
Stop it.
Stop it.
- Krystle.
- Last time, on Dynasty: - I think we're looking at a murder.
- Murder? It looks like it.
We matched tyre tracks at the lake to your car.
Yes, but my wife's car was stolen.
- We've already discussed this.
- There's this scarf.
This is yours, isn't it, Mrs.
Carrington? Yes.
Alexis is a fraud.
And she hates me for knowing it.
At least she's out there making things happen for herself.
- What do you do? - I dabble in things.
- Doesn't sound like much.
- Might surprise you.
We found this at the lake.
- Right before we saw the body.
- I was there.
Krystle, your headaches could be caused by almost anything.
Blake, I may have been involved in a murder.
No, I've never seen him before.
- Do you recognise him? - No.
He really seems to be shaking you up, sir.
- Blake, are you all right? - What? - Are you all right? - Yes.
Yes, I'm fine.
Are you sure you didn't recognise him? You had the strangest look on your face.
Well, the first time in a morgue, it's not very pleasant.
I don't know why they dragged us here.
They're talking about murder.
They haven't even done an autopsy yet.
Unbelievable.
The captain coming down to the morgue.
You believe that? - That surprises you? - Hell, yeah.
You don't get brass like that hanging outwith peons like us.
You do when a Carrington's involved in the case.
I'm surprised Handler didn't show up with floats and a marching band.
- I don't think she recognised him.
- I'm wondering about him.
His face turned whiter than the stiffs.
Pamela.
Are you hiding phone calls from me? I haven't heard from Alexis today.
Oh, I'm sorry.
She called while you were out.
She said to tell you that the tanker deal is coming along and that she'll be unreachable for the next 48 hours.
She's in the middle of some negotiation.
Yeah, I'll bet she is.
Speaking of being unreachable, what about that comptroller? - Mr.
Heath hasn't been in yet.
- Oh, out all day.
I need the information on that bond payment.
Would you get me his secretary? Sorry, Dex, but Florence isn't in either.
- Where the hell is everyone? - I don't know.
Well, find out! What is the matter with you, Dexier? Don't you ever learn? Who the hell talked you into this mess? - Danny, you already looked there.
- I know it was here.
- Sweetheart, calm down.
- It's gone, I'll never see it again.
Well, of course you will.
Now, come on.
No, I won't.
Well, if you don't, we'll get you another one.
Listen, Mommy has to finish getting dressed, but I have got a great idea.
How about if I call Uncle Jeff and ask him to pick one up this afternoon? No, I don't want his football.
- Why not? - I saw what he did to you.
- What he did to me? - He kissed you like Daddy kisses you.
Oh, Danny.
I promise I'll put away my toys and take baths when he asks me, if he'll come home.
Why did Daddy go away? Not because of you, sweetheart.
Daddy loves you very much.
He just needed to be by himself for a while.
Like when I go to my room and don't want to come out? Just like that.
I miss him, Mom.
So do I.
Are we ever going to see him again? - Of course we will.
- When? You don't know, do you? No, I don't have much desire to meet with Rayford.
Leave him alone.
Can't you see he's not interested in politics right now? He's worried about Krystle.
Wait.
Nobody's more worried about Krystle than I am.
But there is business that has to be taken care of.
Such as the pipeline, which is finally finished.
And for which you deserve congratulations, Jeff.
You worked like hell to build that pipeline.
And you can handle the Rayford matter in any way you like.
Well, in that case, see me in my office tomorrow and I'll look after both matters.
You'll look after them? You don't know anything about the pipeline, let alone Blake's campaign.
I'm gonna be involved in every phase of Denver-Carrington.
I say that we call off the recount and let them know they owe us.
- Would you two stop it? - Let's get one thing straight.
All major company business emanates from one office.
- Obviously it's gonna be mine.
- It's not obvious to me.
I think that's a decision that the three of you are going to have to make.
Wait a minute.
I thought I was going to be running Denver-Carrington.
You and Fallon and Steven were running it.
- But now that Steven is gone - I'm taking his place.
Adam, I'm very grateful that you stepped in the way you did.
But now you have help.
Help? What help? Fallon's not interested in the company.
Oh, I am, Adam.
Especially the way you're manipulating it.
- It's a study in Machiavellian politics.
- And as for Jeff, how can you trust anybody who's on the board of Colby Enterprises? Denver-Carrington is too big for one man to run the company.
I don't believe you're giving Jeff equal power with me.
- How can you do this to me? - I'm not doing anything to you.
- I need a team here.
- Damn it, I'm your son.
That's enough! I need all the cooperation I can get.
And that means that the three of you will work together, and that's the way it's going to be.
Well, Jeff, this is going to be fun.
And Sammy Jo's gonna love it when she finds out that you and I are working together.
Jeff Colby! No.
No.
No one is gonna take away what's mine.
Not you, Dana.
And not Jeff Colby.
I'm gonna get you back.
One way or another, I'll get you back.
- Yeah? - Morgan.
It's Adam Carrington.
- How's the Atkinson report going? - The report, yeah.
It's getting there.
Good.
I want to see everything you've got.
And I wanna see it tomorrow.
Oh, tomorrow? Well, that might be a little difficult.
My, uh My schedule's really busy.
Clear it.
I'll see you in my office 219 tomorrow morning.
- What? - Okay, I know.
You're worried about Fallon and me working together.
- But it's not going to be a problem.
- Not for her.
Sammy Jo, Blake has had some hard times lately.
He asked for my help.
Besides, I do have an investment to look after.
I happen to own a lot of Denver-Carrington stock.
- Out.
- What? Out of here.
Sammy Jo, you're taking this personally.
- It has It's not what - Not what? - Not what you think.
- Oh, and what do I think? That I accepted this position so I could be near Fallon.
We won't even see each other Except in your car, your office, your apartment.
Sammy Jo, what you and I share is Deception, jealousy and lies.
The same crap I've gotten from every man I've ever known.
Oh, that's not true.
- Besides, look what you do to me.
- Do to you? Look at you standing there looking so delicious.
I'm not doing anything to you.
Don't give it a thought.
- You're not being fair.
All I want 10 - Stay away.
- I don't care.
- I wanna kiss you and hold you a bit.
- Get your hands off me.
- Remember getting wild.
- We start wanting each other.
- Stop it.
- Our bodies start trembling.
- Stop.
Your body's trembling right now.
I'm trembling right now because I'm furious now.
- That's why I'm trembling.
- That's not That's not what your body is telling me.
Oh, really? - Okay, fine.
That's it.
- Wait, what are you doing? No, you're kicking me out.
Jeff Colby, you go near that door and you die.
Okay.
Hello.
Yes, just a moment.
Ugh.
Hello.
Yes.
Oh.
Well, yes.
You might call us sort of family.
Really? When is she arriving? Look, I understand, but please get me anything else you can on it, would you? No, no, no, you did very well to call.
Thank you.
Good night.
Uh, look, we're gonna have to stop.
I'm going to have to Sorry, I have to dress.
Yes, ma'am.
Mm.
Jeff.
Jeff.
Jeff.
Oh, God, you're heavy.
Oh, I'm sorry, Fallon.
Fallon? You sleep with me and you call me Fallon! - No, no.
- You can't stop thinking about her.
- No.
I wasn't thinking.
- Out! Did I do something - that reminded you of her? - No, no, no.
- Maybe what I said - I know what you said.
- No, I know what it was.
- Miserable creep.
- I was dreaming.
- I bet you were.
Yes, I was.
No.
I was dreaming about falcons.
Falcons? That is the stupidest lie I've ever heard.
- No.
No.
- Get out! Get out of this house.
Get out! - Get out! And go play with your falcon.
- All right, all right, I'm going.
No! No! Krystle.
What is it? - Oh, Blake.
- What is it, darling? Oh, Blake.
Oh, my God, I was at the lake and that boy, that dead boy at the morgue, he was there.
He was trying to hurt me.
I think I tried to kill him.
Darling.
It's all right.
It's all right.
There's no one here now.
He was coming out of the water towards me.
And there There was somebody else.
It was dark like a shadow.
And it was over me and I tried to see its face.
And I tried, but then he got away.
- It's all right.
It's all right.
- Oh, Blake.
It's all over.
It's over now.
- It was just a dream.
- It was so real.
Yes, but it's just a dream.
All right.
Race you from there.
- Beautiful horse.
- Thank you.
Whoa, easy boy.
Some horses are particular about who touches them.
Yeah, and some do that when you pull on the reins - and squeeze with your knees.
- Did I do that? Uh, I had a couple of questions, a few small details to go over with your father.
Oh, I just love it the way you police people try to put normal people off guard.
- Did I do that? - Of course, you did.
Dragging my family into this ridiculous murder case.
Practically accusing my father of lying.
No, now wait a second here, I didn't accuse anybody of anything.
Well, you're here.
So you think he did it? Not necessarily.
But I do think he recognised the body and I need a name for the toe tag.
Well, I think you're gonna have to fill your needs somewhere else.
Sweetheart, I have a few problems, you see.
I have a hot corpse, a captain that wants to bury this case, no witnesses, and your dad is the only one I even think might recognise the victim.
So you see, the whole thing's a mess, and, um, I got a thing for neatness.
It's a family trait.
I see.
And someone else is working on the hard part.
Finding out who killed him? Yeah, well, this might surprise you, but actually that's part of my job too.
Which is why I'm here.
So if you could point me in the direction of your father? Sure, due west.
They're in Los Angeles.
Heh, right.
Right.
Okay, well, if you could just have your father - give me a call when he gets back? - Absolutely, major.
Sergeant.
- Fallon, what are you doing today? - Pardon me? I don't know, I just thought that maybe, uh, you and I could take a trip down to the morgue.
Oh, I couldn't think of a nicer way to spend an afternoon.
I'm serious.
Take a look at the body.
Your father says he didn't recognise the victim.
Maybe you will.
It's a long shot but the sooner I find out who this guy is, the sooner I'm out of your hair.
Come on, humour a desperate cop.
The thought of never seeing you again almost makes it worthwhile.
There you go.
I'll pick you up at 2.
I can't wait.
Uh, should I dress in black? Oh, no.
No, um Wear something bright.
Cheers the dead ones up.
Hmm.
- Oh, yeah, that's good.
- What's that? Right here where you say you found out the Atkinsons bounced two cheques at the supermarket.
Okay, I know that's not real important- No, it's great stuff.
And here.
You found out that the Atkinsons moved.
- Yeah.
Colorado Springs.
- Bravo.
I tell you, Morgan, the information in this report, PUTS gold.
- There you go.
- Thank you.
Adam, when two people move, you've gotta develop new leads.
It takes time.
I know you need important information.
Information's gonna help you get your son back.
You're damn right, I do.
And I don't see it here.
Are you kidding? The garbage in this file wouldn't stop them from getting a credit card.
What the hell's the matter with you? I hired you to prove one thing.
That they aren't even fit to keep a hamster.
And I'm working on it.
I've been a private investigator - for a long time and I've learned - Practically nothing! Besides, there's a familiar smell to this material.
Like maybe I've seen it before.
Like maybe in a file my mother already paid you for.
Well, there was some stuff in there that was pertinent to what we're working on, so naturally my operatives made copies.
Your operatives retyped it and that's about all they did.
Adam, these things take time.
Yeah, well, that's a shame, Morgan, because that's one thing you're out of.
And you're also out of a job.
Your mother never had any problem with my services.
My mother is a very warm and kind-headed person.
And she excuses employees who've outlived their usefulness.
Claire, Mr.
Hess has a hard time finding things.
Would you help him locate the front door? - I think he found it.
- Private eye.
That jerk couldn't find a mountain in the Rockies.
So we'll be doing a number of diagnostic procedures.
I wouldn't want you to think that what you might have is not serious.
But there is a possibility that it could be a simple chemical change.
Or some kind of hormonal imbalance, or A brain tumour.
I, uh, got tired of people hiding things from me, so I decided to check up on a few things myself.
That is what I have, isn't it? A brain tumour? No, not exactly.
Darling, do you remember that riding accident that you had a couple of years ago? When you came to see me, we did a CAT scan.
A slight concussion showed up.
That was no real problem.
But we also found an AVM.
- An artery-to-vein malformation.
- Wait a minute.
Are you telling me that you've known about this for years? Well, that's why you came here for testing last year.
Couldn't I have had an operation or something? Unfortunately, it's located in an area where an operation is excessively dangerous.
And then it's complicated by a particular blood-clotting problem you have.
If something ruptured during this type of surgery It could have cost you your life.
A lot of people live with AVMs all of their lives and never even know it.
I'd like to say something on behalf of your husband.
Not telling you about this was the hardest decision he'll ever have to make.
But in this case, because of the complications, and since it wasn't causing you any problems at the time, I allowed him to withhold the information from you.
All this time I thought I was going crazy.
It's not exactly the cheeriest place in the world, is it? Yeah, well, most of our guests don't seem to notice.
Are all of these compartments ever full? Always.
Unfortunately.
And what do you do with the others? It's kind of a first come, first sewed.
The rest wait in the storage freezer.
Your boy's over here.
- Don't tell me.
He took a coffee break.
- I had him right here.
- Hey, Brunner.
Where's the floater? - I pulled it for autopsy.
- Still in one piece? - Yeah, here he is.
We'll prep when Rodriguez gets back with the chow mein.
Okay.
They eat Chinese food in here? Well, yeah, these guys eat any kind of food in here.
They're not prejudiced.
Okay, I'm ready.
Fallon? There's something familiar.
You see, I was hoping that you might be able to live your whole life without ever being affected by this thing.
Anyway, it might not even be this that's causing the problems.
- We just don't know.
- Yes, but what if it is? There's always hope.
Darling.
Whatever we find, you and I are in this together.
You know that, don't you? Oh, Blake, I'm scared.
I'm so scared.
Maybe I did have something to do with that boy's death.
- No.
- But we can't be sure.
We can't be sure now that I didn't kill him.
Dr.
Baker to Radiology I'm sorry, but I have surgery coming up and there are a few things we should go over.
Blake, if you don't mind, I'd like to talk to the doctor alone.
- Sure.
- The waiting room is right next door.
Okay.
Say it is this malformation.
How could something like that change me so radically? It's so hard to predict this type of disorder, Krystle.
The things that people say I've done would mean that I've turned into a different person.
Is that possible? An AVM can bring on a form of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.
Where a person can actually be unaware of what they're doing.
Even if I wasn't aware of everything, I couldn't turn into somebody who could commit a violent act and then not remember it.
I know you want me to reassure you.
Doctor, I need answers.
I can't wait for a million tests.
Okay, maybe I did do some strange things, but please tell me there is no way that I could have I'm sorry, when it comes to something like this, there just aren't any rules.
- Blake, hello.
- Newman, call your service.
Sable.
This is no coincidence, is it? No.
No, I knew you were here.
You see, I'm on the Medical Centre's Board of Directors.
This hospital has no right to do that.
It Oh, please don't be upset.
Let me explain.
Blake, I don't know why Krystle is here.
Only that she is.
- You do know Dr.
Hampton though? - No.
No, not personally.
Blake, it's not so unusual, please, ha-ha.
Everybody knows that the Carrington and the Colby families are linked.
So that when someone I know here heard that a Carrington was coming in for tests, I received a call.
This was supposed to be completely confidential.
And it is, I promise you.
And I won't betray your privacy.
It's just that I was concerned.
Please, you do not come to this hospital, let alone Dr.
Hampton, for a scratch on the arm.
No.
No, you don't.
I understand.
And I won't push you.
This probably isn't the time, but there's something I've wanted to say to you for years.
Oh, what's that? How much I regret what happened between you and Jason and how he acted.
And that it kept us all apart for so long.
I know, for me, it was like losing part of my own family.
From what I understand, Jason hurt you more than anyone.
Yes, maybe that's true.
And maybe that's why I've always admired the devotion that you and Krystle share.
You can't imagine what it means to me to see that kind of love.
But that kind of love can survive anything, even this.
I hope you're right.
And I hope, from the bottom of my heart, that everything works out well for Krystle.
It has to.
It just has to.
Well, if there's anything I can do, anything at all, just call.
I'd be very hurt if you didn't.
Sable, thank you very much for coming.
Oh.
Thank you.
Ugh.
You know, we're not really known for our coffee around here.
So? Have you been thinking? Well, I try and do that at least once a day.
I mean, about the identity of our boy.
Actually, I was thinking how someone with a PhD in psychology wound up as a cop.
I've always been interested in criminal psychology.
Especially murderers.
- Have you? - Yes, I have.
I've also been wondering something myself.
Why a beautiful and wealthy young lady such as yourself is so interested in morgues and police stations and guns.
What makes you think I'm so interested? You've been asking a question a second since you got here.
Or is that to avoid the real subject? Oh, right, back to the identity of the late Mr.
X.
That is why we're here.
Well, maybe I didn't know him after all.
Maybe he just seemed familiar.
Or maybe you're just not telling me the truth? No, I mean it.
I really don't recognise him.
Well, the autopsy's underway anyway.
And we're definitely talking about murder.
What about suicide? There are easier ways to commit suicide than shooting yourself - in the back of the head.
- He was shot? Yeah.
We found a .
22 calibre slug in his skull.
We thought it was just a bruise, but it turned out to be a bullet.
That doesn't mean Krystle pulled the trigger.
No.
Of course, it doesn't prove that she didn't either.
Think about it, Fallon.
Young, good-looking guy.
Maybe somebody you met at a party.
Maybe somebody that worked for your family.
Maybe it's even somebody you went outwith.
I think that would ring a bell, don't you? I don't know.
I've had some pretty forgettable evenings myself.
Well, maybe you wear blinders on a first date, but I don't.
No.
I'm sorry.
It's just not coming back.
Excuse me.
I have to get down to the autopsy room.
Did they find something? Tell me.
Something's happening to the body.
Something's happening? What does that mean? You wait here.
I'll have a car pick you up, take you home.
- Daddy.
- Hello, darling.
When did you get back from Los Angeles? About an hour ago.
How bad is it? They put her through one test after another.
We'll get the results in a day or two, I guess.
That detective stopped by while you were gone.
The body they found at the bottom of the lake was definitely murdered.
And he's convinced that you recognised him.
Are you sure you didn't? No.
It's just that I think I recognised him too.
- You went to the morgue? - Today with the detective.
It was the strangest thing.
I walked in, expecting to see just, you know, a body and there he was.
Well, it's getting late, darling.
Daddy, I love you.
If you've done something, anything, you know I'd stand by you.
Fallon, the first time I saw that body, maybe I did think that I recognised it.
But then I realised it was impossible.
Because the man I thought I saw was someone I knew a long time ago.
He'd be 20 years older by now.
Now, that boy, that dead boy, he'd be, what? - Twenty-five, 28 years old? - Yes.
Well, then he couldn't have been the man that I recognised.
He'd be 50 years old today.
- Maybe he had a son? - No.
I don't think so.
Well, okay.
But I could have sworn I'd seen him somewhere.
- Well, good night.
- Good night.
Did you have a son after all? No matter what you say, I still don't like it.
The company's in trouble.
Blake needs Jeff to counterbalance Fallon and Adam.
- Actually, it's a great opportunity.
- Sure, for Fallon.
- You sound like you're jealous.
- This has nothing to do with jealousy.
In all fairness, Fallon lost her husband to you.
She didn't lose him.
She divorced him.
Don't you have any feelings for Steven? Not those feelings.
Well, how do you know her feelings for Jeff are any different? You know, it's a shame you two can't befriends.
- You have so much in common.
- Heh.
I don't mean Jeff.
Haven't you ever worried about Blake? That he might go back to Alexis? Yes.
I have.
How do you deal with that? Well, when you marry a man, you have to accept that he's had a past.
And it isn't always that easy.
Especially with someone like Someone like Krystle.
Krystle, wake up.
- Are you okay? - What happened? You fell.
I was just dizzy.
It'll pass.
- This happens a lot, doesn't it? - No.
No.
No, I'm better.
You're talking to me like I don't know anything.
I mean, you disappeared for days.
You've had tests done in L.
A.
Now, I've avoided the subject long enough.
What's going on with you? I care about you.
- I'm okay.
- You are not okay.
What did the doctor say? Sammy Jo, it's late and Blake's hosting a party for a few of his major campaign contributors You're not up to that.
He should have cancelled.
He wanted to, but this is an important night.
Tell me what's happening with you.
I'm fine.
Really.
I'm coming tonight.
I wanna be there to help you.
So for any kind of brain disorder, you would almost automatically use an electroencephalogram.
Usually.
All right.
But an EEG is for general use.
We start with that.
Then maybe a CAT scan if it's a concussion.
And if it's more serious, you move tom? - An MRI.
- What's that? Magnetic Resonance lmager.
And what would you be looking for with that? Any number of intracranial conditions.
Sable, are we talking about anybody specific? No, no, I just wanted to have a few of these tests explained, that's all.
I'm aware of the fact that somebody you know was here for tests.
Joe, how long have I been endowing this hospital? Do you really think I don't understand or respect your ethics? I wouldn't dream of asking you to invade anybody's privacy.
Now, if you were to use - this Magnetic Resonance - Lmager.
Imager, what exactly would you be looking for? Well, generally we'd be looking at a tumour or some malformed blood vessel.
But it could be any number of abnormalities.
And an arteriogram.
What's that one for? That allows us to see the blood vessels of the brain on an x-ray.
- It outlines the abnormalities.
- I see.
But you'd only do that test if you suspected something was seriously wrong.
Usually.
Sable, you've been very good to this facility, but, please, I've told you as much as I should.
I understand.
I understand, but there's just one last little question.
If all the tests were positive, and the patient did have some abnormality, one that, let's say in the past was considered inoperable, but now, for some reason, they have to operate.
Even though he or she may have a history of Well, let's say some mild blood disease.
Now, if that were the case, what would the chances be? Joe, this will go no further than this room.
- The chances wouldn't be very good.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Florence, where were you? The first payment was due on that Technocraft Bond yesterday.
I couldn't reach anyone in your department.
- Not you, not Mr.
Heath.
- I'm sorry, Mr.
Dexier.
I took a day off.
I never do that, except that Mr.
Heath has been out all week.
Yes, so I discovered.
Where is he? - I don't know.
- What do you mean, you don't know? The man is the comptroller of this company.
Yes, sir.
- And he hasn't called in yet? - Last Monday.
Well, that was four days ago.
I mean, where the hell is he? He called from Atlanta.
He was looking into some newspaper chain Mrs.
Colby is interested in.
- And is he still there? - No, sir.
He, uh, was called away on some personal business.
- Where? - He didn't say.
He gave me a phone number, but it appears to be out of service.
This is ridiculous.
To tell you the truth, I'm a little worried about him.
I've been with Mr.
Heath over 10 years.
And never, not once, has he been out of touch with this office.
Lovely.
Just lovely.
Well, Rayford knows that he's has the governorship with the express understanding that we might be calling in markers down the line.
Good.
Oh, by the way, I'm sorry I'm not gonna be able to make the opening of the pipeline.
- Is Dex still with us on this venture? - I hope so.
Mrs.
Carrington, I'm not sure I understand.
I think the table was set.
Hi, partner.
You know, Fallon, whether you like it or not, when it comes to the company, you and I have a lot more in common than you and Jeff.
That's possible.
But then again, sharing was never one of your strong suits.
Actually, I see Jeff's appointment as sort of a protection.
- From what? - From you.
Thank you.
As far as I'm concerned, this little affair puts an end to the Carrington's in politics.
- Jeff.
- Hm? Why is Sammy Jo here? I thought this was a business affair.
Excuse me, Fallon, I have somebody interesting to talk to.
Why isn't the table finished? Where are the dinner plates? - What is that? - Krystle! - Krystle, for God's sake.
- What's going on? Dinner is sewed.
Krystle.
Whoops! - Dinner is sewed.
Dinner is served.
- Mrs.
Carrington, stop.
- Mrs.
Carrington.
Mrs.
Carrington.
- Krystle.
Krystle, darling, it's all right.
Darling, I'd like to talk to you for a moment.
Let's go upstairs.
Excuse me, Mr.
Carrington.
There's a Sergeant Zorelli at the door.
Not now, damn it.
Not now.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Krystle, why don't we go upstairs? Zorelli, I've had enough of this.
I've told you everything that I know, and every member of my family has too.
- I believe you.
- You what? We know that your wife didn't kill that man.
Sorry I came at a bad time.
I thought you'd like to know the autopsy's come up with some, uh, pretty bizarre findings.
The man's been dead for 20 to 30 years.
Twenty to 30 years? I couldn't believe it myself.
You don't know what is involved.
At least tell Krystle.
She doesn't know what's happening.
We'll all know about it soon enough.
By the process of elimination, you're finally the favourite son.
I don't have to take this.
- That's enough.
- Stop it.
If Adam said that he didn't do it, he didn't.
Stop it.
Stop it.
Stop it.
- Krystle.
- Last time, on Dynasty: - I think we're looking at a murder.
- Murder? It looks like it.
We matched tyre tracks at the lake to your car.
Yes, but my wife's car was stolen.
- We've already discussed this.
- There's this scarf.
This is yours, isn't it, Mrs.
Carrington? Yes.
Alexis is a fraud.
And she hates me for knowing it.
At least she's out there making things happen for herself.
- What do you do? - I dabble in things.
- Doesn't sound like much.
- Might surprise you.
We found this at the lake.
- Right before we saw the body.
- I was there.
Krystle, your headaches could be caused by almost anything.
Blake, I may have been involved in a murder.
No, I've never seen him before.
- Do you recognise him? - No.
He really seems to be shaking you up, sir.
- Blake, are you all right? - What? - Are you all right? - Yes.
Yes, I'm fine.
Are you sure you didn't recognise him? You had the strangest look on your face.
Well, the first time in a morgue, it's not very pleasant.
I don't know why they dragged us here.
They're talking about murder.
They haven't even done an autopsy yet.
Unbelievable.
The captain coming down to the morgue.
You believe that? - That surprises you? - Hell, yeah.
You don't get brass like that hanging outwith peons like us.
You do when a Carrington's involved in the case.
I'm surprised Handler didn't show up with floats and a marching band.
- I don't think she recognised him.
- I'm wondering about him.
His face turned whiter than the stiffs.
Pamela.
Are you hiding phone calls from me? I haven't heard from Alexis today.
Oh, I'm sorry.
She called while you were out.
She said to tell you that the tanker deal is coming along and that she'll be unreachable for the next 48 hours.
She's in the middle of some negotiation.
Yeah, I'll bet she is.
Speaking of being unreachable, what about that comptroller? - Mr.
Heath hasn't been in yet.
- Oh, out all day.
I need the information on that bond payment.
Would you get me his secretary? Sorry, Dex, but Florence isn't in either.
- Where the hell is everyone? - I don't know.
Well, find out! What is the matter with you, Dexier? Don't you ever learn? Who the hell talked you into this mess? - Danny, you already looked there.
- I know it was here.
- Sweetheart, calm down.
- It's gone, I'll never see it again.
Well, of course you will.
Now, come on.
No, I won't.
Well, if you don't, we'll get you another one.
Listen, Mommy has to finish getting dressed, but I have got a great idea.
How about if I call Uncle Jeff and ask him to pick one up this afternoon? No, I don't want his football.
- Why not? - I saw what he did to you.
- What he did to me? - He kissed you like Daddy kisses you.
Oh, Danny.
I promise I'll put away my toys and take baths when he asks me, if he'll come home.
Why did Daddy go away? Not because of you, sweetheart.
Daddy loves you very much.
He just needed to be by himself for a while.
Like when I go to my room and don't want to come out? Just like that.
I miss him, Mom.
So do I.
Are we ever going to see him again? - Of course we will.
- When? You don't know, do you? No, I don't have much desire to meet with Rayford.
Leave him alone.
Can't you see he's not interested in politics right now? He's worried about Krystle.
Wait.
Nobody's more worried about Krystle than I am.
But there is business that has to be taken care of.
Such as the pipeline, which is finally finished.
And for which you deserve congratulations, Jeff.
You worked like hell to build that pipeline.
And you can handle the Rayford matter in any way you like.
Well, in that case, see me in my office tomorrow and I'll look after both matters.
You'll look after them? You don't know anything about the pipeline, let alone Blake's campaign.
I'm gonna be involved in every phase of Denver-Carrington.
I say that we call off the recount and let them know they owe us.
- Would you two stop it? - Let's get one thing straight.
All major company business emanates from one office.
- Obviously it's gonna be mine.
- It's not obvious to me.
I think that's a decision that the three of you are going to have to make.
Wait a minute.
I thought I was going to be running Denver-Carrington.
You and Fallon and Steven were running it.
- But now that Steven is gone - I'm taking his place.
Adam, I'm very grateful that you stepped in the way you did.
But now you have help.
Help? What help? Fallon's not interested in the company.
Oh, I am, Adam.
Especially the way you're manipulating it.
- It's a study in Machiavellian politics.
- And as for Jeff, how can you trust anybody who's on the board of Colby Enterprises? Denver-Carrington is too big for one man to run the company.
I don't believe you're giving Jeff equal power with me.
- How can you do this to me? - I'm not doing anything to you.
- I need a team here.
- Damn it, I'm your son.
That's enough! I need all the cooperation I can get.
And that means that the three of you will work together, and that's the way it's going to be.
Well, Jeff, this is going to be fun.
And Sammy Jo's gonna love it when she finds out that you and I are working together.
Jeff Colby! No.
No.
No one is gonna take away what's mine.
Not you, Dana.
And not Jeff Colby.
I'm gonna get you back.
One way or another, I'll get you back.
- Yeah? - Morgan.
It's Adam Carrington.
- How's the Atkinson report going? - The report, yeah.
It's getting there.
Good.
I want to see everything you've got.
And I wanna see it tomorrow.
Oh, tomorrow? Well, that might be a little difficult.
My, uh My schedule's really busy.
Clear it.
I'll see you in my office 219 tomorrow morning.
- What? - Okay, I know.
You're worried about Fallon and me working together.
- But it's not going to be a problem.
- Not for her.
Sammy Jo, Blake has had some hard times lately.
He asked for my help.
Besides, I do have an investment to look after.
I happen to own a lot of Denver-Carrington stock.
- Out.
- What? Out of here.
Sammy Jo, you're taking this personally.
- It has It's not what - Not what? - Not what you think.
- Oh, and what do I think? That I accepted this position so I could be near Fallon.
We won't even see each other Except in your car, your office, your apartment.
Sammy Jo, what you and I share is Deception, jealousy and lies.
The same crap I've gotten from every man I've ever known.
Oh, that's not true.
- Besides, look what you do to me.
- Do to you? Look at you standing there looking so delicious.
I'm not doing anything to you.
Don't give it a thought.
- You're not being fair.
All I want 10 - Stay away.
- I don't care.
- I wanna kiss you and hold you a bit.
- Get your hands off me.
- Remember getting wild.
- We start wanting each other.
- Stop it.
- Our bodies start trembling.
- Stop.
Your body's trembling right now.
I'm trembling right now because I'm furious now.
- That's why I'm trembling.
- That's not That's not what your body is telling me.
Oh, really? - Okay, fine.
That's it.
- Wait, what are you doing? No, you're kicking me out.
Jeff Colby, you go near that door and you die.
Okay.
Hello.
Yes, just a moment.
Ugh.
Hello.
Yes.
Oh.
Well, yes.
You might call us sort of family.
Really? When is she arriving? Look, I understand, but please get me anything else you can on it, would you? No, no, no, you did very well to call.
Thank you.
Good night.
Uh, look, we're gonna have to stop.
I'm going to have to Sorry, I have to dress.
Yes, ma'am.
Mm.
Jeff.
Jeff.
Jeff.
Oh, God, you're heavy.
Oh, I'm sorry, Fallon.
Fallon? You sleep with me and you call me Fallon! - No, no.
- You can't stop thinking about her.
- No.
I wasn't thinking.
- Out! Did I do something - that reminded you of her? - No, no, no.
- Maybe what I said - I know what you said.
- No, I know what it was.
- Miserable creep.
- I was dreaming.
- I bet you were.
Yes, I was.
No.
I was dreaming about falcons.
Falcons? That is the stupidest lie I've ever heard.
- No.
No.
- Get out! Get out of this house.
Get out! - Get out! And go play with your falcon.
- All right, all right, I'm going.
No! No! Krystle.
What is it? - Oh, Blake.
- What is it, darling? Oh, Blake.
Oh, my God, I was at the lake and that boy, that dead boy at the morgue, he was there.
He was trying to hurt me.
I think I tried to kill him.
Darling.
It's all right.
It's all right.
There's no one here now.
He was coming out of the water towards me.
And there There was somebody else.
It was dark like a shadow.
And it was over me and I tried to see its face.
And I tried, but then he got away.
- It's all right.
It's all right.
- Oh, Blake.
It's all over.
It's over now.
- It was just a dream.
- It was so real.
Yes, but it's just a dream.
All right.
Race you from there.
- Beautiful horse.
- Thank you.
Whoa, easy boy.
Some horses are particular about who touches them.
Yeah, and some do that when you pull on the reins - and squeeze with your knees.
- Did I do that? Uh, I had a couple of questions, a few small details to go over with your father.
Oh, I just love it the way you police people try to put normal people off guard.
- Did I do that? - Of course, you did.
Dragging my family into this ridiculous murder case.
Practically accusing my father of lying.
No, now wait a second here, I didn't accuse anybody of anything.
Well, you're here.
So you think he did it? Not necessarily.
But I do think he recognised the body and I need a name for the toe tag.
Well, I think you're gonna have to fill your needs somewhere else.
Sweetheart, I have a few problems, you see.
I have a hot corpse, a captain that wants to bury this case, no witnesses, and your dad is the only one I even think might recognise the victim.
So you see, the whole thing's a mess, and, um, I got a thing for neatness.
It's a family trait.
I see.
And someone else is working on the hard part.
Finding out who killed him? Yeah, well, this might surprise you, but actually that's part of my job too.
Which is why I'm here.
So if you could point me in the direction of your father? Sure, due west.
They're in Los Angeles.
Heh, right.
Right.
Okay, well, if you could just have your father - give me a call when he gets back? - Absolutely, major.
Sergeant.
- Fallon, what are you doing today? - Pardon me? I don't know, I just thought that maybe, uh, you and I could take a trip down to the morgue.
Oh, I couldn't think of a nicer way to spend an afternoon.
I'm serious.
Take a look at the body.
Your father says he didn't recognise the victim.
Maybe you will.
It's a long shot but the sooner I find out who this guy is, the sooner I'm out of your hair.
Come on, humour a desperate cop.
The thought of never seeing you again almost makes it worthwhile.
There you go.
I'll pick you up at 2.
I can't wait.
Uh, should I dress in black? Oh, no.
No, um Wear something bright.
Cheers the dead ones up.
Hmm.
- Oh, yeah, that's good.
- What's that? Right here where you say you found out the Atkinsons bounced two cheques at the supermarket.
Okay, I know that's not real important- No, it's great stuff.
And here.
You found out that the Atkinsons moved.
- Yeah.
Colorado Springs.
- Bravo.
I tell you, Morgan, the information in this report, PUTS gold.
- There you go.
- Thank you.
Adam, when two people move, you've gotta develop new leads.
It takes time.
I know you need important information.
Information's gonna help you get your son back.
You're damn right, I do.
And I don't see it here.
Are you kidding? The garbage in this file wouldn't stop them from getting a credit card.
What the hell's the matter with you? I hired you to prove one thing.
That they aren't even fit to keep a hamster.
And I'm working on it.
I've been a private investigator - for a long time and I've learned - Practically nothing! Besides, there's a familiar smell to this material.
Like maybe I've seen it before.
Like maybe in a file my mother already paid you for.
Well, there was some stuff in there that was pertinent to what we're working on, so naturally my operatives made copies.
Your operatives retyped it and that's about all they did.
Adam, these things take time.
Yeah, well, that's a shame, Morgan, because that's one thing you're out of.
And you're also out of a job.
Your mother never had any problem with my services.
My mother is a very warm and kind-headed person.
And she excuses employees who've outlived their usefulness.
Claire, Mr.
Hess has a hard time finding things.
Would you help him locate the front door? - I think he found it.
- Private eye.
That jerk couldn't find a mountain in the Rockies.
So we'll be doing a number of diagnostic procedures.
I wouldn't want you to think that what you might have is not serious.
But there is a possibility that it could be a simple chemical change.
Or some kind of hormonal imbalance, or A brain tumour.
I, uh, got tired of people hiding things from me, so I decided to check up on a few things myself.
That is what I have, isn't it? A brain tumour? No, not exactly.
Darling, do you remember that riding accident that you had a couple of years ago? When you came to see me, we did a CAT scan.
A slight concussion showed up.
That was no real problem.
But we also found an AVM.
- An artery-to-vein malformation.
- Wait a minute.
Are you telling me that you've known about this for years? Well, that's why you came here for testing last year.
Couldn't I have had an operation or something? Unfortunately, it's located in an area where an operation is excessively dangerous.
And then it's complicated by a particular blood-clotting problem you have.
If something ruptured during this type of surgery It could have cost you your life.
A lot of people live with AVMs all of their lives and never even know it.
I'd like to say something on behalf of your husband.
Not telling you about this was the hardest decision he'll ever have to make.
But in this case, because of the complications, and since it wasn't causing you any problems at the time, I allowed him to withhold the information from you.
All this time I thought I was going crazy.
It's not exactly the cheeriest place in the world, is it? Yeah, well, most of our guests don't seem to notice.
Are all of these compartments ever full? Always.
Unfortunately.
And what do you do with the others? It's kind of a first come, first sewed.
The rest wait in the storage freezer.
Your boy's over here.
- Don't tell me.
He took a coffee break.
- I had him right here.
- Hey, Brunner.
Where's the floater? - I pulled it for autopsy.
- Still in one piece? - Yeah, here he is.
We'll prep when Rodriguez gets back with the chow mein.
Okay.
They eat Chinese food in here? Well, yeah, these guys eat any kind of food in here.
They're not prejudiced.
Okay, I'm ready.
Fallon? There's something familiar.
You see, I was hoping that you might be able to live your whole life without ever being affected by this thing.
Anyway, it might not even be this that's causing the problems.
- We just don't know.
- Yes, but what if it is? There's always hope.
Darling.
Whatever we find, you and I are in this together.
You know that, don't you? Oh, Blake, I'm scared.
I'm so scared.
Maybe I did have something to do with that boy's death.
- No.
- But we can't be sure.
We can't be sure now that I didn't kill him.
Dr.
Baker to Radiology I'm sorry, but I have surgery coming up and there are a few things we should go over.
Blake, if you don't mind, I'd like to talk to the doctor alone.
- Sure.
- The waiting room is right next door.
Okay.
Say it is this malformation.
How could something like that change me so radically? It's so hard to predict this type of disorder, Krystle.
The things that people say I've done would mean that I've turned into a different person.
Is that possible? An AVM can bring on a form of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.
Where a person can actually be unaware of what they're doing.
Even if I wasn't aware of everything, I couldn't turn into somebody who could commit a violent act and then not remember it.
I know you want me to reassure you.
Doctor, I need answers.
I can't wait for a million tests.
Okay, maybe I did do some strange things, but please tell me there is no way that I could have I'm sorry, when it comes to something like this, there just aren't any rules.
- Blake, hello.
- Newman, call your service.
Sable.
This is no coincidence, is it? No.
No, I knew you were here.
You see, I'm on the Medical Centre's Board of Directors.
This hospital has no right to do that.
It Oh, please don't be upset.
Let me explain.
Blake, I don't know why Krystle is here.
Only that she is.
- You do know Dr.
Hampton though? - No.
No, not personally.
Blake, it's not so unusual, please, ha-ha.
Everybody knows that the Carrington and the Colby families are linked.
So that when someone I know here heard that a Carrington was coming in for tests, I received a call.
This was supposed to be completely confidential.
And it is, I promise you.
And I won't betray your privacy.
It's just that I was concerned.
Please, you do not come to this hospital, let alone Dr.
Hampton, for a scratch on the arm.
No.
No, you don't.
I understand.
And I won't push you.
This probably isn't the time, but there's something I've wanted to say to you for years.
Oh, what's that? How much I regret what happened between you and Jason and how he acted.
And that it kept us all apart for so long.
I know, for me, it was like losing part of my own family.
From what I understand, Jason hurt you more than anyone.
Yes, maybe that's true.
And maybe that's why I've always admired the devotion that you and Krystle share.
You can't imagine what it means to me to see that kind of love.
But that kind of love can survive anything, even this.
I hope you're right.
And I hope, from the bottom of my heart, that everything works out well for Krystle.
It has to.
It just has to.
Well, if there's anything I can do, anything at all, just call.
I'd be very hurt if you didn't.
Sable, thank you very much for coming.
Oh.
Thank you.
Ugh.
You know, we're not really known for our coffee around here.
So? Have you been thinking? Well, I try and do that at least once a day.
I mean, about the identity of our boy.
Actually, I was thinking how someone with a PhD in psychology wound up as a cop.
I've always been interested in criminal psychology.
Especially murderers.
- Have you? - Yes, I have.
I've also been wondering something myself.
Why a beautiful and wealthy young lady such as yourself is so interested in morgues and police stations and guns.
What makes you think I'm so interested? You've been asking a question a second since you got here.
Or is that to avoid the real subject? Oh, right, back to the identity of the late Mr.
X.
That is why we're here.
Well, maybe I didn't know him after all.
Maybe he just seemed familiar.
Or maybe you're just not telling me the truth? No, I mean it.
I really don't recognise him.
Well, the autopsy's underway anyway.
And we're definitely talking about murder.
What about suicide? There are easier ways to commit suicide than shooting yourself - in the back of the head.
- He was shot? Yeah.
We found a .
22 calibre slug in his skull.
We thought it was just a bruise, but it turned out to be a bullet.
That doesn't mean Krystle pulled the trigger.
No.
Of course, it doesn't prove that she didn't either.
Think about it, Fallon.
Young, good-looking guy.
Maybe somebody you met at a party.
Maybe somebody that worked for your family.
Maybe it's even somebody you went outwith.
I think that would ring a bell, don't you? I don't know.
I've had some pretty forgettable evenings myself.
Well, maybe you wear blinders on a first date, but I don't.
No.
I'm sorry.
It's just not coming back.
Excuse me.
I have to get down to the autopsy room.
Did they find something? Tell me.
Something's happening to the body.
Something's happening? What does that mean? You wait here.
I'll have a car pick you up, take you home.
- Daddy.
- Hello, darling.
When did you get back from Los Angeles? About an hour ago.
How bad is it? They put her through one test after another.
We'll get the results in a day or two, I guess.
That detective stopped by while you were gone.
The body they found at the bottom of the lake was definitely murdered.
And he's convinced that you recognised him.
Are you sure you didn't? No.
It's just that I think I recognised him too.
- You went to the morgue? - Today with the detective.
It was the strangest thing.
I walked in, expecting to see just, you know, a body and there he was.
Well, it's getting late, darling.
Daddy, I love you.
If you've done something, anything, you know I'd stand by you.
Fallon, the first time I saw that body, maybe I did think that I recognised it.
But then I realised it was impossible.
Because the man I thought I saw was someone I knew a long time ago.
He'd be 20 years older by now.
Now, that boy, that dead boy, he'd be, what? - Twenty-five, 28 years old? - Yes.
Well, then he couldn't have been the man that I recognised.
He'd be 50 years old today.
- Maybe he had a son? - No.
I don't think so.
Well, okay.
But I could have sworn I'd seen him somewhere.
- Well, good night.
- Good night.
Did you have a son after all? No matter what you say, I still don't like it.
The company's in trouble.
Blake needs Jeff to counterbalance Fallon and Adam.
- Actually, it's a great opportunity.
- Sure, for Fallon.
- You sound like you're jealous.
- This has nothing to do with jealousy.
In all fairness, Fallon lost her husband to you.
She didn't lose him.
She divorced him.
Don't you have any feelings for Steven? Not those feelings.
Well, how do you know her feelings for Jeff are any different? You know, it's a shame you two can't befriends.
- You have so much in common.
- Heh.
I don't mean Jeff.
Haven't you ever worried about Blake? That he might go back to Alexis? Yes.
I have.
How do you deal with that? Well, when you marry a man, you have to accept that he's had a past.
And it isn't always that easy.
Especially with someone like Someone like Krystle.
Krystle, wake up.
- Are you okay? - What happened? You fell.
I was just dizzy.
It'll pass.
- This happens a lot, doesn't it? - No.
No.
No, I'm better.
You're talking to me like I don't know anything.
I mean, you disappeared for days.
You've had tests done in L.
A.
Now, I've avoided the subject long enough.
What's going on with you? I care about you.
- I'm okay.
- You are not okay.
What did the doctor say? Sammy Jo, it's late and Blake's hosting a party for a few of his major campaign contributors You're not up to that.
He should have cancelled.
He wanted to, but this is an important night.
Tell me what's happening with you.
I'm fine.
Really.
I'm coming tonight.
I wanna be there to help you.
So for any kind of brain disorder, you would almost automatically use an electroencephalogram.
Usually.
All right.
But an EEG is for general use.
We start with that.
Then maybe a CAT scan if it's a concussion.
And if it's more serious, you move tom? - An MRI.
- What's that? Magnetic Resonance lmager.
And what would you be looking for with that? Any number of intracranial conditions.
Sable, are we talking about anybody specific? No, no, I just wanted to have a few of these tests explained, that's all.
I'm aware of the fact that somebody you know was here for tests.
Joe, how long have I been endowing this hospital? Do you really think I don't understand or respect your ethics? I wouldn't dream of asking you to invade anybody's privacy.
Now, if you were to use - this Magnetic Resonance - Lmager.
Imager, what exactly would you be looking for? Well, generally we'd be looking at a tumour or some malformed blood vessel.
But it could be any number of abnormalities.
And an arteriogram.
What's that one for? That allows us to see the blood vessels of the brain on an x-ray.
- It outlines the abnormalities.
- I see.
But you'd only do that test if you suspected something was seriously wrong.
Usually.
Sable, you've been very good to this facility, but, please, I've told you as much as I should.
I understand.
I understand, but there's just one last little question.
If all the tests were positive, and the patient did have some abnormality, one that, let's say in the past was considered inoperable, but now, for some reason, they have to operate.
Even though he or she may have a history of Well, let's say some mild blood disease.
Now, if that were the case, what would the chances be? Joe, this will go no further than this room.
- The chances wouldn't be very good.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Florence, where were you? The first payment was due on that Technocraft Bond yesterday.
I couldn't reach anyone in your department.
- Not you, not Mr.
Heath.
- I'm sorry, Mr.
Dexier.
I took a day off.
I never do that, except that Mr.
Heath has been out all week.
Yes, so I discovered.
Where is he? - I don't know.
- What do you mean, you don't know? The man is the comptroller of this company.
Yes, sir.
- And he hasn't called in yet? - Last Monday.
Well, that was four days ago.
I mean, where the hell is he? He called from Atlanta.
He was looking into some newspaper chain Mrs.
Colby is interested in.
- And is he still there? - No, sir.
He, uh, was called away on some personal business.
- Where? - He didn't say.
He gave me a phone number, but it appears to be out of service.
This is ridiculous.
To tell you the truth, I'm a little worried about him.
I've been with Mr.
Heath over 10 years.
And never, not once, has he been out of touch with this office.
Lovely.
Just lovely.
Well, Rayford knows that he's has the governorship with the express understanding that we might be calling in markers down the line.
Good.
Oh, by the way, I'm sorry I'm not gonna be able to make the opening of the pipeline.
- Is Dex still with us on this venture? - I hope so.
Mrs.
Carrington, I'm not sure I understand.
I think the table was set.
Hi, partner.
You know, Fallon, whether you like it or not, when it comes to the company, you and I have a lot more in common than you and Jeff.
That's possible.
But then again, sharing was never one of your strong suits.
Actually, I see Jeff's appointment as sort of a protection.
- From what? - From you.
Thank you.
As far as I'm concerned, this little affair puts an end to the Carrington's in politics.
- Jeff.
- Hm? Why is Sammy Jo here? I thought this was a business affair.
Excuse me, Fallon, I have somebody interesting to talk to.
Why isn't the table finished? Where are the dinner plates? - What is that? - Krystle! - Krystle, for God's sake.
- What's going on? Dinner is sewed.
Krystle.
Whoops! - Dinner is sewed.
Dinner is served.
- Mrs.
Carrington, stop.
- Mrs.
Carrington.
Mrs.
Carrington.
- Krystle.
Krystle, darling, it's all right.
Darling, I'd like to talk to you for a moment.
Let's go upstairs.
Excuse me, Mr.
Carrington.
There's a Sergeant Zorelli at the door.
Not now, damn it.
Not now.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Krystle, why don't we go upstairs? Zorelli, I've had enough of this.
I've told you everything that I know, and every member of my family has too.
- I believe you.
- You what? We know that your wife didn't kill that man.
Sorry I came at a bad time.
I thought you'd like to know the autopsy's come up with some, uh, pretty bizarre findings.
The man's been dead for 20 to 30 years.
Twenty to 30 years? I couldn't believe it myself.
