NARRATOR: Last time on Dynasty:
The minute Blake got back from Switzerland,
you told him Fallon was with that cop.
It was more important to you to hurt her than it was to let him know
- how much you loved him. - I'm sure you did that for us.
You're Blake Carrington's son. He needs you. Start acting like it.
You used to have another friend who handled special operations.
- Cray Boyd. - Yes, he's a mercenary, isn't he?
He prefers to be called a soldier of fortune.
The Bay of Natumbe is not an easy place to operate.
It's going to take helicopters, armed speed boats...
How do we know you can handle
- such a big operation? - Can you?
Mm, that feels great. Oh.
That's very good, thank you.
- Jeff. - What's going on?
- This is... - Oh, I'm Tanner McBride.
We're working out a cramp.
Tanner and I met when he...
Well, it looks like you've got some real company, so I'll just stop in
and see you another time?
Anytime.
My father made it very clear we have nothing to say to each other.
So you figured you'd hustle your way down here,
back down to the slums, huh?
And I thought you wanted to see me.
I don't know what I want.
Did you sleep with my cousin?
I told you I hadn't.
Good.
Because I can forgive almost anything except you and that unspeakable slut.
I saw that scuba diver, Gibson, today. He told me you sent him to Delta Rho.
- No, that's not true. - Isn't it?
Well, did you or didn't you hire Gibson?
Jason sent you here, didn't he?
What have we here? A lovers' quarrel?
Get out.
It sounded like somebody was being killed.
You know that sound, don't you, Blake?
Damn it. I told you...
Are you going to hit me, Blake, like you hit Roger Grimes?
I bet if you had gun, you'd shoot me, wouldn't you?
My immediate concern right now is Alexis.
I'm sure she's ready to make her move.
- What are you gonna do? - Whatever it takes to stop her.
- Sable. - I need to talk with you.
Well, I was just on my way out.
It's very important.
Please.
You are truly a lady of many moods.
Last night, you welcomed me with a kiss, then you asked me to leave.
- This morning, you're on my doorstep. - Asking for a favour.
All right. Let me get you a cup of coffee and we'll discuss it.
Thank you.
I do have to be somewhere very soon.
Look, it's very important that I talk with Blake.
So?
So I want you to setup a meeting for me.
Wait a minute, now.
You wanna talk to Blake and you come to me.
What happened? Did you lose his number?
No, but I don't think that he will take my call.
You see, I did something. Something that may harm him.
It may harm you too.
I want the opportunity to explain to both of you.
You are an amazing woman.
I mean, you blow into town,
you buy The Carlton out from under Alexis,
- you steal her tankers... - I purchased those tankers.
And now this. Heh.
Don't you ever take a day off?
I have old scores to settle with Alexis.
Please, Dex, set up this meeting.
Even if you don't want to do it for my sake, you care about Blake,
and I want him to know the full facts.
Please, get him to meet with me.
I'll see what I can do.
Yeah, Rudy, Z.
Hey, listen, man, I got some kind of, uh, stomach flu or something.
Yeah. Yeah, I can't even look at food.
Right. You tell him for me.
Listen, I gotta go, Rudy.
- Morning. - Morning.
- How come you're networking today? - I am working.
I'm making a Denver omelette.
I mean, why aren't you going in?
Here. Try this.
Very good, but it isn't a Denver omelette.
Well, I figure it's got eggs. We're in Denver.
- Zorelli. - I called in sick.
What are they gonna do? Demote me?
I mean, how low can you go?
So you're, like, working behind a desk for a while. You're still a cop.
What they've got me doing is not being a cop.
Come here. Take a look at this.
Come on, you see this? This is the Brown murder.
This kid here, he got in the way of a street gang fight.
And this animal, he killed his 4-year-old kid.
Take a look at him, pride and joy of the neighbourhood.
Putting these people behind bars, that's being a cop.
- You'll be doing it again. - I'm not so sure, Fallon.
I'm beginning to think I don't have a future here.
Of course you do. You're just feeling down.
What I'm feeling is that maybe I should've just stayed in Philly.
I don't talk the way everybody else does here.
- I like the way you talk. - Oh, yeah?
Yeah, I like it better when you don't talk.
I'll tell you the way it works. You're golden for a while, right?
On top of everything. But once it changes, man, then it's all over.
Maybe I should go back to Philly.
I don't want any more of your damn omelette,
and I'm never, ever going to bed with you again.
The eggs are that bad, huh?
It's the same every time.
We make love, we go to sleep,
you wake up and you start arguing with me.
I'm not arguing, Fallon. I just don't know what the hell to do.
You? What about me?
I'm in your apartment, wearing your robe, listening to you complain
about not being able to lock up my father for murder.
Well, I guess when you say it out loud like that...
Come here. Come here.
You are making me crazy, you know that?
You are getting me into such a state.
Twenty, pay 21.
Blackjack.
Tough luck, Mr. Heath.
The cards just aren't falling for you today.
Heh. Today?
How about the last six months?
I'll take another $10,000.
I'll have to get an okay on that. You're in pretty deep.
Yeah, I know.
Jim, let's have a new deck.
These gaming rooms are truly timeless, aren't they?
- I beg your pardon? - Curtained windows,
no clocks on the walls.
It could be midnight or 6 in the morning.
I hadn't noticed.
I believe that's the point. Ooh.
I'll stay.
Card.
All set, 10,000.
- Thank you. - I understand
serious gamblers don't mind if they win or lose.
It's the excitement that counts.
Serious gamblers don't talk while they're playing.
Actually, I only came here to talk, Mr. Heath, to you.
How did you know my name?
Oh, I know a great deal about you, Fritz Heath.
Comptroller at Colbyco for the last, what is it, 20 years?
- Who are you? - You frequent this exotic
but illegal establishment run by my friend Aly Samarkian.
- What do you want? - But you gamble.
Rather badly, I'm afraid. You owe a great deal of money.
I Pay my debts.
I'm delighted to hear it since you now owe them to me.
Oh, let me introduce myself. I am Sable Colby.
I believe you wanted to meet me, didn't you?
Yes, but not here.
What do you mean I owe them to you?
Well, your gambling debts, $210,000.
I bought your markers from Mr. Samarkian
so now I feel we should discuss how you are going to pay me back.
Excuse me, are you gonna place any more bets?
I don't think so.
I think Mr. Heath and I are finished playing games.
Shall we adjourn to Mr. Samarkian's office?
Sure.
- You're not going in. - That's one of my kids in there.
- Don't tell them anything! - I'm warning you.
Take your hands off me. You have no right to interrogate the child.
- We certainly do. - You lied to me.
You promised my kids would have anonymity here, no reports.
It wasn't us. Somebody must have talked to the child
and she gave them some kind of information.
Oh, never. She's too smart for that.
Every one of my kids will freak out and split.
- I'm sorry. - Sorry?
No, you will be. Because the next one dies, I'll bring them here.
- You tell them how sorry you are. - Tanner, what's going on?
Somebody identified Elizabeth.
Identified her?
They're trying to send her back to her parents.
Nice, sweet folks who enjoy beating her senseless.
- Oh, my God. - Yeah, so tomorrow she runs back
to the streets to do drugs. Or maybe she slits her wrists.
- She tried to kill herself twice. - That's not right.
Mrs. Carrington, please. The hospital has to follow regulations.
There's been a suicide attempt, drug usage.
Look, all I need is 24 hours to get a court order for temporary custody.
If other kids hear I couldn't protect Elizabeth, they'll take off.
Now, you know what that means? I am the last stop before hell.
- Mr. Stanley, maybe we could... - Mrs. Carrington, please.
- The hospital... - He's only asking for 24 hours.
Believe me, I wish I could do something.
- But the hospital... - The hospital is hereto help people.
That's why my family has always been so generous in endowing it.
Mrs. Carrington, you don't understand the delicacy of the situation.
Yes, I do. And I know that you're a very competent administrator.
And that you will help us with this young girl. Won't you?
Twenty-four hours, but that's all.
Thank you, Mr. Stanley.
I'm very grateful.
Dr. Kelly to Maternity, stat.
But just keep some distance, Mother.
No, it's because I saw the way you and Boyd were looking at each other.
Okay, just be careful.
- Adam, you got a minute? - Sure, Dad. Come on in.
Um, look, I'll talk to you tomorrow. Bye.
Leo, would you excuse us? We can finish this up later. Thanks.
Working hard, son?
I was supposed to be meeting with Fallon, but she cancelled.
Said she was sick.
Well, what about the directors' meeting tonight?
Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know if she's gonna make it or not.
I've tried talking to her, Dad, about a lot of things,
but the minute I mention that cop:
I know. Well, we mustn't push her.
It only seems to make her more stubborn.
Ha, ha. Inherited that trait from Mother.
By the way, how is Alexis, and where is she?
I haven't heard from her lately.
Europe for a few days. Some kind of business, I think.
She doesn't confide in me much anymore.
She knows how close you and I have become.
Actually, Adam, I came here to talk to you about Virginia.
Now, you two have been together quite a bit lately.
Yes. Yes, we have.
Now, you know, what she is is really a very vulnerable young woman.
Now you, you're a man of experience.
And Virginia...
I just, uh... I just wanted to make you aware of that.
Oh, I'm aware of it.
Frankly, what worries me is how erratic she can get.
It sort of scares me.
You mean that incident in the street.
Well, I understood the man pulled a knife on her.
Dex didn't pull a knife on her the other night.
Oh, that, well, I think that she was deeply upset about Krystle that night.
Dad, I like her.
But in my opinion, Virginia has a screw loose.
Sorry, but I think the girl needs professional help.
Well, I'm sure she has some problems. Who doesn't?
But I tell you, it's important to me, because of Krystle,
that we give Virginia all the understanding
and support that we can.
That's all I've been trying to do.
Good.
Oh, that, well, I think that she was deeply upset about Krystle that night.
Just like you did.
Mrs. Colby, I appreciate the lecture, but what is it that you want from me?
Your current gambling debt of 210,000 would do for a start.
I don't have it now. I will.
And where, if you don't mind me asking, will you be getting it from?
- I don't see that's any of... - Would you be dipping
into the kitty at Colbyco again?
- Now, just a sec... - Like you did for the other million 5,
or was it one million 8?
Mrs. Colby, if you are implying...
No, I'm not implying. That was a declarative statement.
You have absolutely no proof that I was involved in any kind of...
Let me suggest the word: "embezzlement."
You have my marker.
You'll get your money.
I haven't quite finished with you yet, Mr. Heath.
Rumor has it that you were involved
with some very clumsy business transactions at Colbyco.
With Sean Rowan.
Colbyco's stock dropping?
That's company business. I don't discuss it with outsiders.
Good attitude. Very good attitude.
I'm sure that Alexis will have it engraved on your tombstone.
Because rumor also has it
that you paid your last two years of gambling debts from Colbyco funds.
Now, I'm sure you only borrowed the money,
and you intended to pay it back.
Once again,
what is it that you want?
I'll tell you.
I am... Oh, how shall I put this?
Emotionally burdened by the idea of Alexis at the helm of Colbyco.
Now, if you could help me wake up one morning relieved of that burden,
I would be forever grateful.
If you're looking for some kind of did...
Come on. You've worked for that company for 20 years.
A lot of skeletons can be buried in that time.
No. No.
I'm sorry.
I cannot help you.
Oh, well. I have another appointment.
I do think that you should reconsider this, though.
The payment is due in less than a week,
and it's secured by your house, isn't it?
And a family trust fund?
Mr. Samarkian has always extended that date.
Yes, well, Mr. Samarkian is a warmer-headed person than I am.
Especially when my generosity is not reciprocated.
Mr. Heath, consider your options.
You really don't have very many.
As difficult as it may be for you to understand,
my search for what's buried under the lake, my attacks on Alexis,
and my friendship with you and Krystle are three entirely separate things.
I came to Denver for very specific reasons.
Becoming close to you and Krystle
wasn't part of the plan, that just happened.
How did you find out about the collection?
Well, several years ago,
I overheard Jason on the phone talking about an abandoned mine.
He sounded frightened. I'd never seen him like that before.
And who was he talking to?
At the time, I thought he was talking to you, but whoever it was,
it was obvious from the conversation that whatever was in the mine,
he wanted to remain there.
If all this happened so many years ago,
why wait until now to go looking for it?
Jason divorced me.
He ran off with my sister.
I was very hurt, very angry.
I think in time, I could have forgiven him,
but he didn't just divorce me.
He divorced himself from the children as well.
He was very cold, very cruel.
It was as if he blamed them for being part of me.
And what does all this have to do with you
sending a diver down to the bottom of that lake?
I was determined to beat Jason in the one area
that had always dominated his life: Business.
I wanted to hurt him wherever and whenever I could.
That's when I thought of the mine, the collection.
But strangely enough, I didn't know what it was.
Are you saying you don't know what's down there?
Well, only that it was of great value.
And that Jason wanted to keep it a secret. That was enough for me.
But you did find out what was down there later.
No, I never have.
I hired Gibson to dive at the lake.
He was responsible for the body floating up.
And when I realised that it was that boy, Roger Grimes,
I called Gibson off.
Well, then who sent Gibson to Delta Rho?
I don't know.
But whoever it was, it was nothing to do with me.
I was thinking about Jason. I wanted to hurt him.
But, Blake, whatever else you think of me,
my feelings for you and Krystle are genuine.
It's deeply important you believe that.
You have a rose in your hand.
Oh, yeah. Here. I...
It's not much. I just wanted to thank you.
That's very sweet of you.
I'll be going home tomorrow.
All of a sudden, I'm not sure what I'm going home to.
I think getting shot had a strange effect on me.
Getting shot has a strange effect on most people.
- Yeah. - Listen, if you feel like it sometime,
would you call me?
- I'd really like you to meet my kids. - Sure.
I just...
What you did today...
Thank you.
For a tiny woman, you sure talk tall.
Who was that lady?
Was that the real Sable Colby?
Thank you for setting up that meeting.
If it was, she is someone that I would like to get to know.
I'm serious, I was impressed.
Well, I didn't come here to impress anyone.
I had a misunderstanding with Blake, and I wanted to clear it up.
You cleared it up for me. I believed you.
Thank you very much.
Did I say something to offend you?
What have I ever done to make you disbelieve me?
- Hang on, let me... - I've never been against you or Blake.
I have never lied to either of you and I resent the insinuation
that my telling the truth is some major event.
I'm sorry.
L just thought I saw a soft spot
in that suit of armour you wear most of the time.
I liked you for what you did in there.
I know that it wasn't easy.
Take that for what it's worth.
Thank you.
- Virginia? - Why, Dex?
Why'd you do it?
Is this how you remembered me?
With this trash?
- I don't understand. - All I wanna know
is what'd you tell Alexis Colby?
Did you tell her I wore this kind of filth?
Look, I never mentioned you to Alexis.
Then how did Adam find out about me?
Find out-J?
Virginia, come on inside.
Come on.
What did Adam say?
That you told Alexis
what I was when we met ten years ago.
- That I was a kid working the streets. - What?
Damn it, Dex, he even knew all about how you saved me
from those guys in the bar.
Listen to me.
Listen. I never told anyone about your past.
You didn't?
- Then why? Why did he try to...? - Try what?
- What did he do? - It doesn't matter.
It does matter, Virginia. What did Adam do?
He brought those awful things to my room.
He really humiliated me, Dex.
He made me feel like I was trash.
I can't stay here anymore, Dex. I just wanna go home.
It's okay.
Adam won't hurt you anymore.
Mm-mm.
Oh, I will see to that.
Hello.
You're late.
I don't recall giving you an assignment to monitor my time.
I guess light banter is out again tonight, huh?
Have we heard from Fritz Heath?
No, but I left a message to remind him our markers are due
in a couple of days.
Was that wise?
Gambling is illegal in Denver.
- Are you gonna start on me again? - I beg your pardon?
Well, for the last few days, nothing I say or do seems to be right.
It can't be the work, because lam doing a damn good job for you.
- So, what is it? - You overreacting.
I don't think so. As a matter of fact, I think this all started
when I began spending time with Dex.
Out of line, Joanna.
If you're interested in him, the field's open.
I'm not in the way.
Oh, do let me understand this.
If I developed an attraction for Dexter, I have your permission to pursue it?
I didn't mean it that way.
Then you should learn to say what you do mean, and very quickly.
Let's get down to business.
It's all here and it's not a pretty picture.
Oh, it's a temporary slump.
Eliminating departments isn't gonna help anything.
- What do you suggest? - You can take an early retirement.
That would save the company money.
Do you work here?
- This is a private meeting. - You couldn't leave her alone, huh?
- Dex, what is it? - How do you live with yourself?
- What kind of a warped mind, huh? - Get out of here!
- What are you talking about? - Have to create ugliness, right?
- I'm talking about Virginia! - I didn't do anything!
- Hell you didn't! - Call security!
Feel good to hurt her? Make you feel good?
Guard!
Did you play rough with her, Adam, huh? Huh?
Slap her around a little? Make you feel like a man?
Get him off me!
- Jeff... - You miserable piece of...
- You wanna play rough, Adam, huh? - Get off me, he's gonna kill me!
Break it up. What's going on?
Dex is upset because I know all about him and his little whore.
I'm gonna kill you, Adam!
I'll kill you! I swear, I'll kill you!
Get your hands off of me. I'm warning you.
If you ever go near her again, it'll be the last move you ever make.
Take it easy.
Let's get out of here.
Thank you.
Oh.
- Well? - Well, what?
What did you do this time?
Oh. Oh, that's beautiful.
You don't know a damn thing,
and you immediately assume that I've done something wrong.
Seems like a logical conclusion.
Oh. Well, try this on for logic.
Virginia was Dex's little plaything years ago.
Virginia and Dex?
Does tend to stretch one's imagination.
Yeah, she was 15, 16, working the streets.
Dex picked her up.
Made her do things even she hadn't done before.
Working the... I don't believe it.
He called her Ginger. Isn't that cute?
- Dex never said anything about... - About what?
Taking a minor to bed?
About dressing her up like a whore?
Doing God-knows-what with her, I don't know. Taking pictures of her.
Heh. No, he never mentioned any of that to us, did he?
Even if it's true, and I don't believe it is,
it still doesn't explain why Dex came charging in here like a...
Because I found out about his dirty little secret.
- I can't listen to this. - No, I'm not surprised.
Vague parallels to your own situation.
Young woman doing things she's ashamed of.
You and Sergeant Zorelli.
I always wondered what you were made of, Adam.
And now I know.
It comes out of the back of a horse.
So you'd like me to believe that you were diving in a lake,
but you didn't know what you were looking for?
Mrs. Colby said look around.
Check out the mine at the bottom of the lake, so I did.
Then the stiff popped up. Scared the hell out of me.
- You dislodged the body. - I guess so, yeah.
I mean, it was dark down there. It was hard to see.
It must've been stuck in one of the outer chambers of the mine.
I don't know.
The water was cold as ice. I couldn't stay down there long.
- What happened after that? - Well, nothing.
Mrs. Colby didn't want me to go back down. Cops were all over the place.
Yes, but you stayed on in Denver, didn't you? Why?
She was paying my way. Why not?
Did she pay you to go out to Delta Rho?
- Did she? - No.
- Who did? - Nobody. I did it on my own.
I see. And why Delta Rho?
When I was waiting around for the cops to clear out,
I went back to L.A.
I talked to a couple of old timers who were around
when Jason Colby had his fingers in the mining project.
And one of them remembered that the stables at Delta Rho
used to be the old Colterion mining headquarters.
I see.
So they told you there was something buried down there.
No, no, they didn't know.
But I figured that it had to be gold. Maybe coins, you know?
Something you're trying to hide from Uncle Sam.
So that's what you thought was down there, huh?
Yeah. Of course, I didn't know.
Mr. Gibson, you're a fool.
Don't you think if there was something valuable buried on my land
that I would have dug it out myself?
I don't know.
Anyway, I really told you everything,
so you're gonna get me out of here now, right?
I don't see any reason why I should.
- We had a deal. - You shot my daughter-in-law.
Almost killed her. We don't have a deal.
I don't make deals with people like you.
Guard, we're finished in here.
Carrington!
Carrington, come back here!
I could hurt you when I get out of here.
You're not gonna double-cross me and get away with it.
I just got finished talking to Gibson. I don't think he knows anything.
Yeah, that's right.
I believe we're safe for now.
Hey, hey, Zorro, heard they took away your sword.
Shouldn't you be watching Sesame Street or something?
Wait till the people of Harmon Springs hear about this.
- Oh, they'll be rioting. - Shut up, Murphy.
You know you can't talk and file at the same time.
For what it's worth, I think you got a bum rap.
So you think maybe I should brush up on my two-step, huh?
You know we got orders. You're not supposed to be down here.
Oh, yeah?
Well, I'm just running an errand for Martinez. Uh...
He wanted me to check on File Number 10212.
Some guy in a motel, I think he said. A scuba diver?
Yeah, I got that.
Right here.
Right. Right. That's it.
- Doesn't look like they found much. - Yeah, you know Martinez.
Anal personality. Has to double-check everything.
Do you mind if I make a copy of this?
- Zorelli. - Just a copy.
You can keep the original.
I'm gonna have to have the okay slip. Martinez gave you one, didn't he?
Oh, yeah, yeah, he did. It's, uh, upstairs. I'll get it for you.
- Thanks. I owe you one. - Zorelli, be careful.
I don't think you got a lot of friends upstairs.
Good night, Angela. Don't wait up.
It's all right. I'll get it.
- Hello. - Hello, Mrs. Colby.
- This is Fritz Heath. - Oh, I am glad you've called.
I have to see you.
Yes. Well, will you be bringing anything that I would like to see?
Yes.
- When can I come over? - Mr. Heath, you sound out of breath.
- Is something wrong? - No. No. Please.
- I just wanna get this over with. - I agree.
Um, tomorrow morning, 9:00 in my office?
- No. Can't we do it tonight? - No.
Tomorrow morning will be fine.
Good night, Mr. Heath.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, good night.
- Police! - Aah!
Oh! Oh! Fallon! Fallon, what are you doing here?
- How did you get in? - You gave me your key, remember?
- Right. Right. - Oh, you scared me to death.
Look at this.
In my kitchen.
With my knife.
My pots and pans.
- My oregano. - I'm making you dinner.
I thought they took your gun away.
This is kind of nice.
Coming home, finding you here.
I wanted to surprise you.
Have a nice quiet dinner without any talk about your job,
my father or murder.
This is really nice.
Don't do that.
I thought you liked it when I do that.
And when I do this.
Don't do that.
Not until after the Caesar salad and coq au vin.
Okay. Okay.
Why don't I take a quick shower,
then we'll have a little dinner and, uh...?
When the moon hits your eye.
Like a big pizza pie.
That's amore.
When the world seems to shine.
Like you've had too much wine
Zorelli, where do you keep your matches?
That's amore
Zorelli?
When the stars make you smile
When the stars make you drool.
Like a pasta fagioli.
That's amore.
Oh, God, what an idiot I've been.
Daddy was right. You were just seeing me so you can spy on him.
You know, Fallon, I was thinking.
I've got a couple weeks coming.
I'd like to take you to this place in Northern California. Point Lobos.
I visited once. It's beautiful. The squirrels, and the...
Fallon?
Where the hell did you go?
Good evening, Robert.
Are you expecting company, Mr. Dexier?
No, just me and the mineral water tonight.
Hey, stranger.
Hi, Dex.
Let me buy you a drink.
No, thanks. I really can't stay.
We've been doing a good job of avoiding each other lately.
Come on. I could use the company.
I don't think it'd be a good idea if Sable saw me with you.
- Why? - Do you remember when I said
that I thought she had her eye on you?
Well, then I was kidding. Now I'm not so sure.
Joanna, I have nothing to hide from Sable.
It's not you I'm worried about.
Besides, I have a hunch the feeling's mutual.
What makes you think that?
I majored in body language.
I like you, Dex.
I think you are a great lover.
Just a lousy career move.
Are you two joined at the hip?
Every time I turn around, you're together.
- I have been trying to reach you. - I was just leaving.
Yes, well, I don't want to spoil anybody's fun,
but Joanna does work for me.
And we work very long hours. Don't we, Joanna?
Was that little show for my benefit?
What little show?
Kicking her out of here like a junkyard dog.
Ha, ha. What, a junkyard dog?
You must teach me more of your Wyoming witticisms.
Why did you let her getaway with it?
Pardon me?
Sable Colby is a bully.
The more you let her beat you down, the worse it's gonna get.
Who the hell are you?
Adam Carrington.
Oh. Joanna Sills.
- It's a pleasure. - Mm. Pleasure's mine.
- What happened to you? - Oh, uh, low-flying aircraft.
Extremely dangerous.
I poured my head out to him, Dex.
I don't know what else I can do to prove to him I'm on his side.
Well, I told you, you convinced me.
- Blake will come around. - I hope so.
- The man's been through hell. - I know.
Especially with Alexis holding an axe over his head.
Why don't you stop her?
- She hasn't done anything yet. - She will.
I don't know. It's been some time. She hasn't made a move.
What if she does?
Do you remain neutral?
I mean, doesn't Blake ever question your loyalty?
You're close to him, but you work for her.
I don't work for anybody.
I'm helping Alexis solve a problem.
You know what I'm talking about.
All right. How about this?
If Alexis goes after Blake for the murder of Roger Grimes,
she's attacking me too.
Now, Alexis knows where I've drawn the line.
And you really think she won't cross it?
I don't know.
Maybe she's changed her mind.
Destroying Blake is Alexis' life's work.
There's only one way to stop her,
and that's with a sharper axe.
That's what I'm looking for.
And when I find it, I will use it.
Oh. Mother and Sable have been battling for years.
Sable has her buttons and Alexis knows how to push them.
That's very interesting, but so far, it looks like Sable's winning the battle.
Yeah, but we're gonna win the war.
Ah.
If you're ever in the neighbourhood...
- I'll be sure to call. - Please do.
Oh, Virginia.
I was hoping that you would reconsider.
Mm-mm.
I know it was never your intention to stay on here indefinitely.
But to leave because of...
Blake, I'm leaving because it's really time for me to go.
Let me get my coat. We'll talk on the way...
- Please, I have a cab waiting out front. - A cab?
Well, at least you can let me drive you out to the airport.
I know it seems like a small thing, but I'd really like to leave here alone.
I need to feel like I have control of my life again.
No, wait.
I don't know what happened between you and Adam and Dex,
but I know my son.
I love Adam, but he is capable of doing some very unkind things.
I don't wanna talk about it.
If he did anything to you, I would like to know about it.
In some ways, Blake, I think he did me a favour.
All my life, I felt like I was less than everybody else.
I kept thinking I don't count.
And some people took advantage of that.
Well, I don't feel that way anymore, Blake.
Ever since you and Krystle brought me here,
for the first time in my life, I felt like I belonged.
Belonged to something, a family.
Well, then stay. We'll work out whatever problem there is here.
Blake, I can't.
I've put my life on hold for too many years.
Now I'd like to see what I've been missing.
Virginia, you remember this?
You gave it to me and said:
"Would you please give it to Krystle?"
And you said that the magic of it was getting it from somebody you love.
Well, I think the magic works both ways.
From someone who loves you.
Thank you, Blake.
Angela, there's someone at the door.
Angela!
All right, I'm coming.
Whoever it is, this had better be worth it.
Who is it? HEATH: Fritz Heath.
It's not even dawn yet. What are you doing here?
This is getting out of hand. I just can't take it anymore.
- What's wrong? - I mean, it's too much.
You're pushing me against a wall
- and I just can't take it anymore. - Calm down.
How did you know that I was taking money from Colbyco?
You earn, what, 150-, $200,000 a year?
How were you expected to pay back 2 million on that?
Well, that's just the point.
They never paid me what I was worth. Never. Never.
I should never have let them take advantage of me like that.
Yes. Well, Alexis never has been known for her generosity.
I mean, the money that I was taking from Colbyco,
I was going to pay all of that back.
The whole thing. Every single penny of it.
And I was winning. I was winning very big and...
L just had a very bad string of luck and I...
You were going to show me something.
Yeah.
This is going to cost you a great deal
- more than you've been offering me. - More?
Let's talk about what I have been offering you.
I am offering you $210,000 to pay off your recent gambling debts.
And that is chicken feed for what's in here.
I'm also offering to keep my mouth shut about your embezzlement.
I cannot go to jail. I will not.
- I cannot... - All right. Then let's be reasonable.
No, I'd go crazy if I were to go to jail.
Look, calm down.
Calm down.
And show me what you have.
Well?
It's big.
This is big enough to bring down Colbyco
and Alexis Colby on top of it.
They did some things.
They did some things that nobody knows about.
Nobody.
Nobody but me.
Sean Rowan knew about it.
But he never understood how important this was.
But I want more.
Assuming that this is as big as you say,
how much more?
Five million dollars.
- You're laughing at me. - Five million?
You expect me to give you $5 million?
- This is worth it. - I couldn't, in my wildest imagination,
dream of giving you $5 million in addition to the...
I thought that would be your reaction.
Have you lost your senses?
Put that gun away.
I mean, I was... I was hoping it wouldn't,
but I knew that it might.
You're making a very big mistake.
It's gone too far.
- I can see that. It has gone too far. - Put that gun away.
It has gone too far.
Fritz!
No!
