00:01The End
02:00Yes, good idea.
02:02I, uh, I just talked to Joseph.
02:05About the marriage?
02:07Yes.
02:08Is he happy about it?
02:09More like worried.
02:11Like he thinks it was a mistake.
02:14Hmm.
02:17How do you feel about that, Blake?
02:19Well, they're young.
02:21They're obviously in love.
02:23And it was their decision to make, and they made it.
02:26I only hope that Jeff's mind was clear, that he knew what he was doing.
02:32As to Joseph, well, he's a father.
02:35And since when haven't most fathers been at loggerheads with their children?
02:45I've just been so happy these past few days have been like a dream, flying away to be married
02:50to the man who I've been in love with since I was 10 years old.
02:54Being separated from reality.
02:57That part's over, I guess.
02:59Why?
03:00Are you still my wife?
03:02Like the man said, in sickness and in health.
03:05In Reno and in Denver.
03:09Look, I'm really striking out today.
03:11Still no smile.
03:13I'm just wondering what's waiting for us there.
03:16Fallon.
03:17Now, what about Fallon?
03:20I wish we'd told her what we were going to do.
03:23Kirby, this marriage of ours is ours.
03:26Between you and me only.
03:29We owe Fallon nothing.
03:31Then why do we have to go back right away?
03:35Because I do owe Alexis something.
03:37A showdown.
03:39And because I have a son that I don't want to be separated from right now.
03:45You and Fallon have a son you don't want to be separated from, right?
03:49Let's finish packing.
03:51No more talk about Mrs. Colby.
03:53Just us.
03:54Jeffrey?
03:57I'm Mrs. Colby now.
03:59Mrs. Jeffrey Colby?
04:12Need any help?
04:14No thanks.
04:16According to Jeanette, I'm doing just great.
04:18You are.
04:19Off to the hounds, Mrs. Carlton?
04:22No, I just got back.
04:28Stephen, your father was very disturbed this morning.
04:33About Jeff and Kirby?
04:35That happens to be none of his business.
04:38No?
04:40About you.
04:41The two of you.
04:42Last night.
04:45Call it business as usual.
04:49Nothing's changed between us, Crystal.
04:50That much should be pretty obvious.
04:53Neither of you is willing to see the other's point of view.
04:56Oh, no.
04:57I saw his point.
04:59The trouble is, he doesn't, he won't see mine.
05:03I told him I was going to New York to see my wife.
05:05He said, my God, Stephen, you just got home.
05:08Your life is here.
05:09Well, he's wrong.
05:11More wrong than he's ever been about anything concerning me.
05:16Stephen, that's his way of saying he wants you here.
05:19Because he loves you.
05:21Crystal, I appreciate his having searched for me.
05:24I know that that was out of some kind of love.
05:28Father's instinctive love for a child.
05:30But the truth is, I didn't want to be found.
05:33Okay, I was.
05:35And I came back.
05:36But not for him, Crystal.
05:39I came back because of this little guy right here.
05:45And you're going to see Sammy Jo to see if you can make things work between the two of you.
05:51I lay awake last night praying for that.
06:01Stephen, this is hard for me to say.
06:06Because Sammy Jo is your wife, my niece, and Danny's mother.
06:12She doesn't want Danny.
06:16She's tough and ambitious.
06:18Yes.
06:19Well, maybe that's for me to find out.
06:23I'm sorry, Crystal.
06:25I just can't even accept your opinion for something this important.
06:32Stephen, your life is here.
06:35I don't think it is.
06:37I know damned well it isn't.
06:41I know.
06:43I don't think it is.
07:08Well, well.
07:1011.30 and you're finally awake.
07:13After you finally let me get some sleep.
07:17Fred, you just said it was 11.30,
07:20and you don't want to be late, do you?
07:22To that lunch with a certain important client.
07:25Hmm.
07:28About getting the prettiest country girl in town
07:31to be their exclusive cosmetic model, right?
07:34You promised.
07:36I know.
07:39But these things take time.
07:42So meanwhile, you, uh,
07:45you keep comfortable here, all right?
07:47Shouldn't be too tough.
07:49You've got yourself a very comfortable little pad
07:52for a struggling newcomer.
07:55I think it's okay.
07:57And I get a break on the rent.
07:59Goodbye, Fred.
08:07Goodbye, Fred.
08:16Goodbye, Fred.
08:19Goodbye, Fred.
08:23Goodbye, Fred.
08:26Goodbye, Fred.
08:26Goodbye, Fred.
08:26Goodbye, Fred.
08:26Goodbye, Fred.
08:26Goodbye, Fred.
08:27Goodbye, Fred.
08:28Goodbye, Fred.
08:31Goodbye, Fred.
08:32Goodbye, Fred.
08:35Goodbye, Fred.
08:36Mr. Hess, that will not do at all.
08:38I hired you to unearth some real scandal on Congressman McVein.
08:42Not some innocuous gossip column item that Susie would just chuck in her waste paper basket.
08:47Yes, David, what is it?
08:49Blake Carrington is here to see him, Mrs. Colby.
08:51Tell him to... Oh, he is in.
08:54Um, all right, Mr. Callaghan, if you'll just be a little patient, I'll get back to you as soon as
08:59possible, yes.
09:00Goodbye.
09:03Well, Blake, and what can I do for you?
09:05No. Oh, no. Don't tell me. Let me guess.
09:09Those board members of yours who mysteriously disappeared are suddenly surfacing.
09:13And you want to set a date for my meeting about the merger.
09:17I'm here on personal business. Stephen.
09:20Has something happened?
09:22What's happened is you.
09:26Now, when I went off to Singapore to bring him back home,
09:29you made me swear that I wouldn't do anything to poison his mind against you.
09:33That was the word you used, poison, wasn't it?
09:37Yes.
09:38Damn it, that's exactly what you've done to me now.
09:41What are you talking about?
09:43That miserable lie that you threw at him, that I tried to buy his son for Crystal.
09:51Now, he's gone off to New York to see Sammy Jo.
09:55To do what?
09:56Guess. Just guess.
10:00He's not going to try and reconcile with that tramp, is he?
10:03Well, whether he comes back here with or without her, I've got something to ask you right now.
10:08Not on the basis of decency, God knows, but because I'm sure that you really love your son.
10:14Can we come to a joint decision?
10:19What kind of a joint decision?
10:22Not to turn our son into a battleground to settle our own personal interests.
10:28I'm determined to make peace with Stephen.
10:32I'm prepared to do anything to bury the past, but I'm going to need help.
10:36Yours.
10:39Well, do we have a deal?
10:44Well, Stephen is our son.
10:47He's yours, and he's mine.
10:51Yes, we have a deal.
10:54Good.
11:08Good morning, Mother.
11:09Good morning, darling.
11:10What did father want at this hour of the morning?
11:12What he wants, Adam, isn't important.
11:16What I want is...
11:18Now, you promised me once that you'd be a brother, a true brother to Stephen.
11:23Big brother, yes, I remember.
11:27Now's your chance to keep that promise.
11:30You usually smile when you have a grand plan going well.
11:33You're not smiling now.
11:36Listen to me, Adam.
11:38Now, I know that you're not particularly fond of Stephen.
11:44But I want you to become friends with him.
11:47It's funny, isn't it?
11:48You don't think I like Stephen.
11:51But I do.
11:55I never had a kid brother before.
11:58I never had a friend, not a real friend.
12:01I just hope to God Stephen likes me.
12:15Well, here we are.
12:16I see my father didn't arrange for a brass band, not even a string quartet.
12:21Whatever his problem is...
12:23Jeff.
12:25Kirby.
12:30Welcome back.
12:32Congratulations.
12:35I was just on my way to the hotel to check things out.
12:38How's it going?
12:40Well, fine.
12:41The same.
12:42Well, you two look wonderful.
12:45Can I see your ring?
12:47Yeah.
12:49It's very pretty.
12:51You bought it in a hurry at the Reno airport, if you can believe that.
12:55Oh, I can.
12:56Slot machines, wedding bands, all part of the big...
12:59Big what?
13:01Gamble?
13:02Sorry.
13:04It's just that this is so unexpected, I'm not as witty as I might be.
13:10Well, Jeff, I know you want to see little Blake.
13:12I'll go back upstairs with you.
13:14I want to give him an extra kiss goodbye.
13:16Kirby, I know you'll want to see your father.
13:19I'm sure he's waiting for me.
13:29Hi.
13:31Here.
13:36Look, I didn't mean to behave the way I did downstairs.
13:39I just, uh...
13:39Oh, what was so wrong?
13:41I mean, you were just trying to make a little joke.
13:43I mean, that is you, Fallon, isn't it?
13:45The, uh, smart-talking Carrington?
13:48What are you thinking right now?
13:50Here today, gone tomorrow?
13:52Well, let's hear it.
13:54Well, today's just not my day for quips, okay?
13:59Look, Jeff, you and I couldn't make it work.
14:03But I'm glad you and Kirby will.
14:06It's wonderful for you, and I'm glad.
14:09Do you really mean that?
14:11Yes.
14:13And...
14:13And what?
14:15And I was just thinking I should probably arrange a party for you both.
14:19Or somebody should.
14:26That's a nice thought, um...
14:30But...
14:30Well, let's talk about it some other time.
14:36Fallon, I want you to know that it's...
14:37It's going to work between Kirby and me.
14:43Because it, uh...
14:44Well, because it is.
14:50I also want you to know, though...
14:55Well, there's something inside me that's...
14:59That's never going to stop loving you.
15:02Don't say that, Jeff.
15:04You're on to a new life now.
15:07The new wipes out the old.
15:10Let's hope so.
15:19Huh?
15:22Huh?
15:26Huh?
15:28Huh?
15:43Mrs. Gunnarsson told me you were downstairs checking a wine delivery
15:47I said I'd wait for you here
15:49I'm home, Papa
15:51What am I supposed to say to that?
15:54What I wanted you to say on the phone
15:56Congratulations
15:58For ruining your life
16:00How am I ruining my life?
16:02I'm married to a man I love very, very much
16:04At the moment
16:05I always have
16:07Even when you were having an affair in Paris with Jean-Paul?
16:11Yes
16:12Oh, Papa, say it, please
16:13Congratulations
16:15What I'm going to say is this, daughter
16:17You're not of the same world as the Colbys and the Carringtons
16:20I find that funny
16:22Very funny, because I remember a time when you were all for me marrying into the upper classes
16:26When I was with Jean-Paul, before I knew he had a wife
16:30That's not the same thing
16:32Then what is it you're thinking?
16:34That the people in this house who've known me practically since I was born
16:37Are not going to let me forget that I'm a major domo's daughter?
16:40Or that they've always thought that they're better than we are, is that it?
16:45Why on earth would they think that about the downstairs girl who finally had her wish
16:49And became the upstairs bride?
16:52Why would your loving husband ever think about that?
16:55You seem to think that he will
16:58That someday Jeff and I are going to have an argument
17:00And he's going to bring it up
17:01He's going to hit me with it
17:02Remind me of my humble beginnings
17:05Yes, maybe
17:05In fact, probably
17:07Is that a prediction?
17:09You seem to have all the answers
17:11Why don't you answer that question for yourself?
17:17I have a question for you
17:18From this moment on
17:20What am I supposed to call you?
17:22Mrs. Colby
17:24Madam
17:24Your Royal Highness
17:26Huh?
17:27Don't answer that
17:29As the major domo of the household
17:30I'll come up with the proper form
17:32Eventually
17:46I'm very happy for you, Jeff
17:48My best wishes to both you and Kirby
17:49Thank you, Blake
17:51Glad to see you're looking so well
17:54He's unsurprised
17:55No, no
17:56No, just that after all you've been through
17:58And then this thing happening so suddenly
18:00And you're wondering if I got married
18:02Without knowing what I was doing
18:04Right?
18:07Look, Blake
18:08I know you always wanted it to work out
18:09With Fallon and me
18:11Well, it didn't
18:15Jeff
18:17You have always been like a son to me
18:19You know that
18:19I was hoping that you would always be my son-in-law
18:22But
18:23I guess life just doesn't work out
18:25The way we want it to all the time
18:28Important thing is for you to be happy
18:30Blake, I'm married now
18:31I'm going to be happy
18:33But look, I don't want to talk about that right now
18:36What I do want to talk about is this
18:39I want to sue Alexis
18:41On what grounds?
18:44On the grounds that I signed over my son's stock
18:46When I wasn't fit
18:48I was sick
18:48I didn't know what I was doing
18:54I can't let you do that, Jeff
18:56Blake, I can do anything I want
18:59I won't let you do it
19:01Now look, I don't have to remind you
19:04That she's planning on merging Denver Carrington with Colby
19:07Because she's waiting there to bury you
19:09I know that
19:10And I'm going to fight that
19:11But
19:12I can't let you go into court
19:15First of all
19:16It will take years for that litigation to go through
19:20Meanwhile
19:20It's going to be mother's milk
19:21For every newspaper editor in the state
19:24In the country
19:25To print that when you sign those papers
19:28That you were temporarily insane
19:29And that's the way they'll put it
19:31Believe me
19:32Well, Blake
19:33If it doesn't bother me
19:34Why should it bother you?
19:35Your reputation could be clouded
19:37For a long time to come
19:38Maybe even the rest of your life
19:40And it could conceivably affect your son
19:44Blake, it's my fault
19:45I signed that paper
19:46I'm the one who put you where you are
19:48It doesn't matter
19:49I'm going to be in there fighting Alexis
19:51But I'm going to fight her my way
19:55That board meeting has not been convened yet
19:57Neil McVane is in Washington
19:59Trying to convince the right people
20:01Not to consider that merger
20:03Even if it is presented
20:04So I'm not out of weapons yet
20:06And I will not allow you
20:08To put your head on the block
20:09When you don't have to
20:10End of discussion
20:12All right
20:16So, Jeff
20:17I'd be very happy
20:19If you and Kirby
20:20Would consider
20:21Staying on at the house for a while
20:24You've got enough pressures
20:25Hanging over you right now anyway
20:26And
20:27We could both use
20:29One another's support
20:32I'll think about it
20:43Hello, Elizabeth
20:50Who is it?
20:52Steven, it's Adam
20:53Can I come in?
20:55Sure
20:57Hi
20:57Hi
20:58I'm glad I caught you
21:00We didn't have much time
21:01To spend together the other night
21:02When you got back
21:03Yeah, I know
21:04I'm really sorry about that, too
21:05Unfortunately
21:06Yes, I know
21:07You're ready to leave town
21:08Well, before you go
21:10I just want to tell you
21:11How much I admire your courage
21:12For what you went through
21:14May I?
21:16Thank you
21:17And I regret
21:18Having grown up
21:19Without a brother
21:20And I hope
21:21That we get to know
21:22Another better
21:23Well, thanks
21:23I hope so, too
21:24And I appreciate your coming
21:26It's just that right now
21:27I really have no time
21:28Of course, you're off to New York
21:29To see that girl
21:31My wife
21:34Steven, I know
21:35It's none of my business
21:36But
21:37I've heard a lot about her
21:40I've known her
21:41Young girls like her
21:41So I'd say
21:42Leave well enough alone
21:44Who sent you here
21:45With that bit of fraternal advice, Adam?
21:48My father?
21:49My mother?
21:50No, you're wrong
21:51I came on my own
21:53And look
21:54When you get to know me better
21:56You'll know that I don't
21:57Make judgments about people
21:59Is that what you rushed over
22:01To talk about?
22:02My lifestyle?
22:03No, believe me
22:04But it does have something
22:05To do with it
22:07Steven, look
22:09I've been around
22:10A lot more than you
22:11I mean, sleeping with girls
22:14How can you know
22:14The baby's even yours?
22:16Because I know
22:17Who he is, Adam
22:21And if you're asking me
22:22If I ever went to bed
22:23With my wife
22:23And if I ever made love
22:25To my wife
22:25I did
22:26Now get lost
22:27Brother
22:41Adam, I'd like to see you
22:42In the library
22:43Why?
22:45To talk about Steven
22:48Crystal, I have things to do
22:49Whatever it is
22:50It can wait
22:51What I have to say to you
22:52Can't
23:06What kind of a brother are you?
23:08How could you say something like that to him?
23:11About his sexual preference?
23:13Well, that's national news, isn't it?
23:16Ever since my father's trial
23:18Tell me something, Crystal
23:21Did something happen when my back was turned?
23:24What does that mean?
23:28You suddenly seem to have become Steven's mother
23:31No, Adam
23:33I'm not Steven's mother
23:35But I am his friend
23:38And I want you to know
23:39He was my first friend in this house
23:40Back in the days
23:42When everyone else was hostile to me
23:44And where I come from
23:46One friend defends another
23:48Ohio, wasn't it?
23:49Where embraces flourish
23:51Along with
23:52Sometimes
23:52Hot-tempered ladies
23:54Adam, Steven needs support from all of us
23:57You know that
23:57Yes, I do
23:59And so does mother
24:01But if she sees fit
24:02Sees fit to what?
24:08Steven was right
24:09She did send you
24:11No
24:13She may have suggested
24:16But then I
24:18But then what?
24:25Never mind, forget it
24:27Adam
24:28Adam
24:29Tell your mother
24:29That no matter what she had on her mind
24:33Steven's on his way to New York
24:54We're going to stay here
24:56Is that what you're telling me?
24:57That's right for what?
25:04We're not going to find a house of our own
25:08Jeff
25:09Fallon lives in this house
25:11She's your
25:12She's my ex-wife
25:13And she has nothing to do with it
25:15How many times do I have to say that?
25:16How many times do we have to talk about Fallon?
25:20Then it's your son
25:21You want to be near him
25:22We can find a house close by
25:24You can see him every day
25:25You know that
25:26No, no, there are other things
25:28And finding the right house
25:29Will take time
25:34Now I've got to go downtown again
25:37It's all complicated
25:38Blake's in trouble
25:38And I got him there
25:39And I got to get him out of it
25:42Now everything's going to be fine
25:44You know that
26:06I heard the news
26:08You and Jeff
26:12And felicitations
26:15You are so dumb
26:17You are so dumb, Mrs. Colby
26:20Mrs. Colby
26:22Is that a first?
26:24No
26:25Mr. Carrington of Bellboy and Reno beat you to it
26:28Don't walk away from me, Kirby
26:30And don't try and walk away from the truth
26:33You married Jeff Colby for his money and his name
26:36And you weren't fooling anybody
26:37Especially not me
26:40You see
26:42We are cut from the same calico cloth
26:45Now I know we each have to climb these gilt-edged walls in our separate fashions
26:49But why did you choose him?
26:51When I could have had you
26:55Well, we had a night that night
26:56That night was a mistake
26:58I still get sick when I remember that night
27:00You really?
27:01And get your hands off of me
27:04And I forbid you to ever touch me again
27:08Forbid?
27:09Spoken like a true mistress of the man's, Kirby
27:11Well done
27:12And so quickly, too
27:15But you'll be back with me
27:17Married or not
27:19You and I aren't finished
27:21Married?
27:23Jeff married Kirby Anders?
27:26I thought you might have heard by now
27:29No
27:29No
27:31No, I hadn't heard
27:34Mother, I know the news is surprising
27:37I didn't think it would hit you this hard
27:39Why is it so important?
27:41Why does it matter so much to you?
27:44Because of what you did to Jeff, that's why
27:49Kirby had nothing to do with that
27:52She is married to the man that you tried to poison
27:56Maybe she'll try and find out what happened
27:58That girl is as insolent as her father
28:00But she is intelligent
28:03She'll start digging
28:06Maybe she'll discover something
28:08There's nothing to discover
28:10The panels with the paint have been destroyed
28:11I gave that order myself
28:14I don't think that's it
28:16No?
28:17And what do you think it is?
28:19I think there's something else
28:21In this thing with Jeff and Kirby
28:28Mother
28:31I think you know something I don't
28:35No
28:35Adam, I know many things that you don't
28:38I know about wine
28:39I know about art and music
28:42And life, of course
28:44Yes, you can throw that one in
28:46You also know something I don't
28:48The question is
28:49Do I get filled in or not?
28:54Adam, you're beginning to bore me
28:58Sorry
29:19Bell?
29:20Come in
29:21Bell?
29:28Come in
29:28You can't afford to pay the electric bill.
29:31I'm tied up with my thoughts.
29:33I can't seem to get anywhere.
29:37Your ex-husband came home with his new bride,
29:40and there's a hollow feeling inside of you.
29:44I'm happy for them.
29:46Maybe.
29:47I am.
29:49But you're confused and even kind of miserable.
29:54Hey, I went through that when I heard that Crystal married your father.
29:57You know, what were my inadequacies?
30:01What happened to the great moments we had together?
30:03Right?
30:05No.
30:06Fallon, come on, you're talking to me, the guy in Haiti, remember?
30:09When all we did was talk?
30:11Serious talk.
30:14What are you, a tennis pro or a shrink?
30:18If you're a shrink, maybe I should lie on the couch.
30:25Maybe you can get me an office with a big leather couch.
30:28And then I'll moonlight.
30:31Not until I pay my electric bill.
30:35I would make a good shrink.
30:37God knows I've known all kinds of women with all kinds of problems.
30:41There he goes, bragging again.
30:43Yeah, that seems to be my kind of style.
30:46At least I have something going for me.
30:50You have a lot going for you, Mark.
30:53You're one of the few people I know who's really himself.
30:56Like my brother, Steven.
30:58And that's rare.
31:00Okay.
31:01So you make a good shrink.
31:03And you want to continue analyzing my plight?
31:06No, I've got the cure.
31:28Well, just what every tired businessman needs.
31:32It's a lovely lady on the floor next to a fire, a pitcher full of martinis.
31:41The only thing that doesn't go with the picture is why are you so pensive, darling?
31:48I was just thinking about Jeff and Kirby and about you.
31:55Oh, how did I get into this?
31:58I know deep in your heart you've always hoped that Fallon and Jeff would get together again.
32:06Yes, I did.
32:07But obviously that is never going to take place.
32:12Now, what exactly is on your mind?
32:15What else are you thinking about?
32:19Well, how everybody in this house is shocked by Jeff and Kirby's marriage,
32:24their so-called impulsiveness.
32:26And I know what they're thinking.
32:28Marry in haste, repent in leisure.
32:31Well, darling, that wouldn't have become a truism if it weren't often true.
32:34I know that.
32:36But we have to give them a chance.
32:38I mean, they are already married.
32:41One of the things that might be a problem is the uncomfortable position Kirby's in,
32:47reversing her place in this house.
32:50And...
32:51And what?
32:52Well, someone should talk to Joseph.
32:55I mean, her own father is making her feel more uncomfortable than anyone else.
33:01Now, I could do it, I know.
33:03But coming from me would have double authority.
33:08Yes.
33:14My beautiful wife.
33:17Always thinking about someone else.
33:20I love you for that.
33:21I always have.
33:23More than you'll ever know.
33:30All right, of course, I'll talk to Joseph.
33:32Anything you want.
33:35But, um...
33:36Since you're not quite dressed for dinner yet,
33:39what would happen if we decided to skip dinner tonight?
33:46Well...
33:47It'd probably be a scandal downstairs.
33:51Let's risk it.
34:13Who is it?
34:14Steven.
34:21Hello, Steven.
34:23It is you.
34:25Sammy Jo.
34:29Aren't you going to come in?
34:47The taxi from the airport must have been hard to find.
34:50It's been over an hour since you phoned.
34:52Yeah.
34:53But I made it.
34:55Looks like you're doing well here in the Big Apple.
35:00Don't let this place fool you.
35:01I haven't paid next month's rent yet.
35:04It's due in a couple days.
35:06But I'll manage.
35:08Modeling.
35:12Well, your father sends me a little money.
35:15I guess you know that.
35:16And right.
35:17Modeling.
35:19They're putting out any calls for a young guy with a new face?
35:22And a cane.
35:24Real distinguished, huh?
35:26How long will you have to use that?
35:29Not long.
35:35Well, I guess this is what you would call
35:36appropriately awkward conversation
35:38between two people who haven't seen each other in a while.
35:43Not since that night in Hollywood.
35:46Why are you here, Stephen?
35:48I thought we said goodbye in Hollywood.
35:51I want to talk to you, Sammy Jo.
35:56There's a great little restaurant downtown
35:58that I dream about every once in a while.
36:01The food's that good.
36:03They stay open till two, so what do you say?
36:05You want to go grab a bite to eat with me
36:06and we can talk there?
36:27You want me to come back to you.
36:30Three of us together.
36:32Is that what you're saying?
36:34Yes.
36:37Well, maybe it wouldn't be so bad.
36:39We could get an apartment, you know, overlooking the East River
36:43and then a summer place in the Hamptons
36:45or even better, Connecticut, Westport.
36:47Oh, that would be more fun.
36:49And we could afford it.
36:51At least your father could.
36:54Sammy Jo, I'm not talking about taking any money from my father.
36:58I don't need it.
36:59I'll get a job and I'll support us.
37:02And I'm not talking about living here.
37:04I'm talking about Denver, going back home.
37:07Home?
37:09Maybe you're home, Steven, but not mine.
37:12I'm here and I'm staying.
37:14But you just said...
37:16Maybe it wouldn't be so bad.
37:18The two of us together again.
37:21We'd be rotten and you know it.
37:23And you know why.
37:25If you're thinking what I know you are.
37:28I haven't touched a man.
37:30Not in a long time.
37:32A very long time.
37:34But you haven't stopped thinking about them, have you?
37:39This place.
37:41Your favorite restaurant downtown.
37:45Isn't that where you lived with your boyfriend, Ted Denard?
37:51Isn't it?
37:53Yes.
37:54But...
37:55Isn't this where you used to come to eat with him?
37:57This great little restaurant you told me you dreamed about?
38:01Once.
38:02Maybe twice.
38:03I'll bet.
38:06Nothing's changed, Steven.
38:09Not with me and not with you.
38:12At least I know who I am and what I want out of life.
38:16And I don't want you.
38:21Just like I don't want a baby who is a mistake.
38:25He's our son.
38:27He's a beautiful boy and he's our son.
38:30He's the baby you gave birth to.
38:32Yeah.
38:33You know why?
38:36Because I was afraid to have an abortion.
38:39And you don't love him.
38:42I don't know him.
38:44How can you know eight pounds of a kid?
38:47Of any kid?
38:49I can't believe you're saying this.
38:51I can't believe that when you see him again and when you see that I've changed.
38:56But you haven't changed.
38:57Because you can't change.
39:00What's it going to be, the two of us together again?
39:03You laying in bed with me?
39:05Sometimes even making love to me.
39:08But not really to me.
39:10To a ghost.
39:12Sammy, Joe, listen to me.
39:13No, you listen to me.
39:15I didn't do such a bad job at thinking about Danny's best interests.
39:19At least I put him with people who can give him what he needs.
39:22Including a normal upbringing.
39:26You want to do your thing with other guys?
39:28Go do it.
39:29But if you really give a damn about your son, let him grow up with a straight family.
39:36Don't stick him with you for a father.
39:43I'm not hungry.
39:44I'll take a taxi back.
39:48Before you go, I want to ask you one thing.
39:52Did you really try to sell him to my father like a piece of goods?
39:56Let's just say I thought about it.
39:58I never got anything else from you, did I?
40:15I think that you like this plain little old wedding band.
40:20Well, I love it.
40:22I love the man who gave it to me.
40:24Just like I love you.
40:26Like I couldn't love you more than being my own handsome boy.
40:31Which he isn't, Kirby.
40:33I only meant that...
40:35Oh, no apologies necessary.
40:37I know what you meant.
40:42Fallon, I'm happy.
40:44And Jeff's happy.
40:45We know you're going to be happy.
40:47Do you mind, Kirby?
40:48I'd like to spend some time with my son.
41:05What the devil are you doing here, Sam?
41:07I know.
41:08I'm supposed to be off fishing in the Bahamas, where your ex-wife couldn't track me down.
41:13Except that she did.
41:14Sure is that seaplane landed next to my boat and handed me this.
41:17Now listen.
41:19Attention.
41:20Samuel Dexter.
41:21I intend to hold merger meeting with you there or not.
41:25If you are absent, I, as a holder of majority interest in Denver Carrington, shall present my own list of
41:31nominees for the board and have their election confirmed by the courts.
41:35Alexis Colby.
41:37No love and kisses.
41:40I'm hamstrung, Blake.
41:41The meeting's called for tomorrow.
41:43But you will not be there.
41:45Is that clear?
41:47Because I'm going to have Andrew Lair down at court in the morning, arguing that she got this majority by
41:52her typically dirty pool.
41:54Well, I'm sorry, Blake.
41:56I can't take that risk.
41:58You can't?
41:59Why not?
41:59Well, what if Lair's arguments are tossed out by the court?
42:01I've got no choice.
42:02I own stock in Denver Carrington, too.
42:05And you're fighting a personal battle, it seems to me.
42:08And this is a business battle.
42:10Yes.
42:11My business.
42:12A company that I built up from nothing.
42:15A company that made you a rich man.
42:17A very rich man.
42:21I'm sorry, Blake.
42:24Blake, I'm your friend.
42:25I always will be, I hope.
42:27But gratitude isn't the name of the game in this part of our world.
42:31I'm back, and I'll be at that meeting.
42:34Anyway, the fishing was a little lousy.
43:00I'm here because your chauffeur was waiting for me at the airport.
43:04The guy practically kidnapped me.
43:06Well, I was so anxious to see you.
43:09Come and sit down.
43:10Now, I know that you called from New York about the baby, and...
43:14Well, since we're coming back alone...
43:17Without Sammy Jo.
43:19That's right.
43:20Which I'm sure pleases you.
43:22Darling, what pleases me is that you obviously and finally saw that girl for what she really was.
43:29Well, that's all in the past now.
43:31The reason that I practically kidnapped you was to talk about your future with me at Colby Co.
43:38Mother, I can't give you an answer yet.
43:41There's another part of my future that hasn't been settled.
43:43The most important part.
43:45What I intend to do about my son.
43:48I understand, darling.
43:50But what I really want you to know is that I'm praying that you'll say yes.
43:55Well, thanks for wanting me.
43:57But right now...
43:58Right now, you have other things on your mind.
44:01I understand.
44:03I've always understood you, darling.
44:06Better than your father.
44:07Better than Fallon.
44:09Better than all of them.
44:11Promise me that you'll bear that in mind.
44:14I promise.
44:15Good.
44:23Move into your own apartment? Why?
44:25Easy answer, Dad.
44:27I'm going to make a life for myself and my son, and I intend to raise him as a single
44:30parent. Alone.
44:31No. I don't understand that.
44:33Try, Dad. Try.
44:36Crystal.
44:39Yes, Stephen?
44:43I know how much you love Danny, and I'm grateful for all the love and care you've given him, but
44:49he is my son.
44:50He's my responsibility, and I'm the one who has to take care of him. You understand that, don't you?
44:56Of course they understand.
44:58Well, I don't.
44:59Here stands my son.
45:01Obstinate as always.
45:03My son, who's...
45:08Stephen, all we want for this child here is to be surrounded by a real family.
45:14A whole family, and not some... some...
45:17Say it.
45:18You can speak plainer than that, Dad.
45:21You don't want Danny to have a gay for a father.
45:23Well, don't worry, because your grandson will be able to choose for himself who and what he wants to be
45:29when he grows up.
45:30Yes? With you as an example?
45:32Blake!
45:34No, Crystal, don't.
45:35Don't get him to apologize to me.
45:37Don't get him to say, I'm sorry, son. I didn't mean it, because he did.
45:43You know, there are mornings when I wake up in bed and I'm perspiring and trembling, and I ask myself,
45:48is it me, or is it my life here, being back in this house?
45:51Just being back in this house?
45:55Well, I don't think it's me, Dad.
45:57And I'm getting out of here as soon as I can.
46:00Me and my son.
46:02I'm going to bring him up to the nursery, all right?
46:05Now, Stephen, we are not finished talking about this.
46:08I insist that we talk this out.
46:10Stephen!
46:11Blake!
46:11Stephen!
46:12Let him go, please.
46:14Try to see it his way.
46:16His way? Have you suddenly lost your mind?
46:18If you try to stop him, you may never see Danny again.
46:21And that would break your heart.
46:24And mine.
46:31Let him go, please.
47:01Let him go, please.
