Previouslyon Dynasty...
I am moving out of the manor.

Even if you're losing
Blake, you still got me.

You poisoned him?I lost control of my life

when I lost
Carrington Atlantic.

If I advise the board to sell...

I think we can
discuss that.

Was there anything else?
Or anyone else?

I guess not.
Looks like it's just me.

Enjoy, sir.

Actually,
there is something I need.

I've decided to take control
of my life once again, Anders,

which means getting
Carrington Atlantic back.

You mentioned that.
#Goals, as they say.

You know, I've allowed
my family to push me out,

but Carrington Atlantic is my
legacy and it always has been.

Unfortunately,
it's part

of Van Kirk Industries,
who just received an offer

from an Oakley Corp.

I've never heard of Oakley Corp.

Find out who's behind it,
as well as their offer.

Maybe I can outbid them

before it goes before
the VKI board for approval.

Very well. Bon appétit.

What's your hurry? Join me.

Cristal's visiting
family in Mexico,

Sam's always
at the hotel working,

Fallon moved out, and Adam...

Was kicked out by you.

Perhaps a miscalculation
on your part.

The point is,
I wouldn't mind some company.

We could really
catch up,

just... talk.

I assume we're done here, sir?

Yeah, I think so.

Damn.

I should go away
on more writing retreats.

You know, there's something hot
about hotel sex.

Must be the change of scenery,

or the minibar stocked
with overpriced chocolates.

I got to say, I never
thought I'd see the day

when you call it quits
at the manor.

Well, let's just say that
Blake and I are on a sabbatical,

but this one is permanent.

Although, hotel life
is getting a bit mundane.

Well, there is
always my place.

What? And sleep in the same
bed as that pop-tart Ashley?

No. I'd rather wear
low-rise jeans to brunch.

Besides,

it doesn't matter because
I won't be here for long.

I... am gonna buy a house.

Wow. Congratulations.

Isn't that something we
should've talked about together?

Oh, no, no, no, silly.

I'm buying a house for me,
not for us.

I figured, I've never lived
alone, and so it's something

I should probably experience
at least once in my life.

You know, people do live alone.Yeah, I've heard.

I-I guess I just
thought we were more

on the path
of living together.

Don't worry, okay? This is just
a stop on my life journey,

not the final destination,
all right?

Besides, I am going to need your
help once I start the search.

Mm. Done.

I thought you already got
your treatment this week.

Just getting
a little extra boost.

I'll be fine.Actually, I had hoped

your toxic metal levels
would be lower by now.

So much for doctor-patient
confidentiality.Sorry.

Let's just not
overdo things, okay?

I'll see you
next week.

I am concerned.

What if these treatments
stop working?

There has to be
something else we can do

to stop this wretched disease.

Trust me,
I've been looking into it.

I even found this pharmaceutical
company named Chlorcyte Health.

They've been working on a drug
to cure neurotoxicity.

And?And they think

it'll be at least five
to ten years

before they have anything
to take to the FDA.

They're not putting much money
into the research.

They said it's, uh,
not a priority.

So all we have to do
is buy the company

and very quickly
make it a priority.

What?

I'm a Colby now, I think big.

Well, hey, it means a lot
that you care,

especially considering
our marriage

is just a business arrangement.True, but if we're

being honest, my bedroom has
been a little lonely at night.

Should you ever
want to join me,

we can always expand
our current agreement.

Well, I appreciate the offer,
but I need to focus on my health

while we wait for Van Kirk
to approve our purchase of C.A.

I'll set a meeting tomorrow
about buying Chlorcyte.

Oh, Jeff's buying you
companies already?

Is that the typical
two weeks of marriage gift?

I figured it would be
a set of knives or something.

No, Dominique, no knives,

though I do wish
one was handy right now.

Mom, what are you
doing here?

I just got in from New York,
wanted to say hello.

Oh, well,
did you lose your phone?

And I was also thinking that
maybe I would stay here

for a while, to look after you.Here?

In this house?

Dominique,

your wit knows no bounds.

I wasn't joking.Neither am I.

You and your bargain basement
wig collection

can go find a one-bedroom
in Norcross

because you are
not staying here.

Okay, okay, uh,

you heard her.

Happy wife,
happy life, right?

It's best you find
someplace else to go, Mom.

Hey, stranger.

Hey-hey. Kirby.
What brings you around?

I know it's a long shot, but
I seem to have lost an earring.

Did you find one here
the other night?I was wondering

where that came from.
It's right there on the table.

Oh, my gosh.

I can't believe you found it.

I thought it was gone forever.

You know, it's actually
a really funny story

about these earrings,
they're part of a lucky pair...

I'm-I'm really sorry,
I-I can't stay and chat.

I have a meeting
at Atlanta General.

Oh, I didn't realize.

I'm trying to get
my privileges there,

so I can practice
medicine again.Cool.

Yeah, I'm-I'm running late
for a thing, too, you know.

I'm b-busy, busy.

By the way, I had such a great
time at dinner the other night.

Yeah? Me, too.

Really?
Yeah.

I-I got to run,
but I'll-I'll see you around.Yeah.

See-see you around.

A formal dining room
that only seats 16?

I mean, do people
not entertain anymore?

Ugh, I know, right?Oh, my God. What-what is this?

Carpeting? I mean,
who has carpeting

in their house these days?
Savages. Next!

LIAM:
Fallon?

JAX :
Hi.

Jax Davis. You must be
one of the new interns.

Down, boy,
he's with me.

What are you doing? I-I thought
we were going house hunting.

Oh, no, we are. It's just that
open houses are for peasants.

Who has the time? This way,
the market comes to me.

Laminate flooring? This place
should be condemned. Next.

Hey, Fallon.

I-I agreed I'd help you look
for a new house, all right,

not watch you walk around
and bump into furniture.

It's all right. I'm done anyway.

This virtual tour was
a giant waste of real time.

There's one listing
not online.

Classic colonial
in the Wrightwood area.

LIAM:
Ooh.

Has its own peach tree farm.

Little on the nose,
but whatevs.

Wait, wait, wait.
Is this the house on the lake?

With sweeping views?

525 Wrightwood Drive?That's the one.

Oh, my God, I can't believe it.
It's fate.

I used to go by this house
all the time when I was a kid.

Sounds great.
We should go look at it.No, no.

We don't need to look at it.
It's perfect.

I know that I want it,
so get it for me.

The owner's not accepting offers

until the open house
later today.

Well, I guess we're going
on a road trip after all.

Well, at least I know you'll
never leave me, huh? Yeah.

ANDERS: Sorry for
the delay, sir.

My contacts at VKI
are a little tight-lipped

about the sale
of Carrington Atlantic.

Certainly was easier
when Fallon and Liam lived here.

Had a direct line of access
to the Van Kirk family.

What'd you find out
about the bid?

Oh, it's sealed. However, if you
really want to know about that,

you can always ask
the owner of Oakley Corp.

Jeff Colby.
What?

Are you sure?I'm afraid so, sir.

Jeff and Alexis failed
to have you put in prison,

so they've moved on
to the next best thing.

Now they want your company.

So... battle lines
have been drawn.

Well, if it's war they want,
it's war they'll get.

Can you please
go be Valentine's-y

in the lounge or something?

Thank you.

KIRBY:
Wow.

Someone's feeling
the love. You got

special plans for you and
Fletcher's first V-Day together?

Well, actually, he's away
on Atlantix business.

Aw.

Which is totally fine
because I'll be busy hosting

La Mirage's
"Secret Admirer" party.

Ooh, do tell.

People send out an anonymous
letter to someone special,

hoping that person will show up

to find their admirer.
Then they meet, fall in love,

book a hotel room,
everyone wins.

That sounds really romantic.

Unless, of course, the person
you invite doesn't show up.

Then... then
that's sad for you.

Are you sending that to someone?

If you must know, I'm
crushing a little on Adam.

Please tell me you mean
Adam Levine or Adam Sandler.

I'll even accept a misguided
attempt at Adam Lambert.

Adam Carrington.What, what's the...?

Kirby, what exactly happened
in that cult?

Did Joel
brainwash you

into only liking crazy people?

First of all, not a cult.

Adam may not have
the best track record,

but he did come
to save me from Synergy,

and he's actually
super charming and fun.

All I'm saying is,
this has the makings

of a relationship disaster,
all right?

Don't ignore the warning signs.

If you feel that strongly
about it...

Oh, yes, I do.

And you're welcome.

If you feel that
strongly about it,

keep it a secret from you, too.

Look who rolled back into town.

I'd ask if Vanessa was with you,

but I'm sure you're working
overtime to keep us apart.

Don't be silly,
I'd never do that.

Besides, I couldn't
if I wanted to.

Once Jeff and Monica found out
Vanessa was my stepdaughter,

I tossed out the blackmail
I had on you.

Hmm, how generous.
I guess it doesn't matter.

Vanessa wants nothing
to do with me.Oh? You spoke to her?

We texted a lot when
she went back to New York,

but then I mentioned
coming to visit,

and things have been
radio silent ever since.

I had no idea.

Although that doesn't
surprise me.

I saw her when I was in New
York. She has her own apartment.

Even booked
a few nightclub gigs.

I hate to say it,
but she's moving on.

Yeah. Without me.

I'm sorry, Michael. Truly.

If it makes you feel any better,

I haven't had the
best day either.

Next round on me?

Wow. This place has to have,
what, 15 bedrooms?

Are you sure
you'll have enough space?

No, it'll be tight,
but I'll manage.

The important thing is
the history of happiness

this house has.

Happiness that I'm sure
will spill onto me.

If they accept your offer.

Oh, honey,
I'm not worried about that.

Let's go, boys!

You know, when making
an all-cash offer,

you don't actually have
to have the cash with you.

Well, I don't like
to take chances.

And, look, the visual
is so impressive.

JAX:
What's going on?

What's happening here?

You said the owner
wasn't accepting offers

before the open house,
but nobody said

I couldn't offer
at the open house.

Fallon's very talented
in finding loopholes.

Got it.

And that jacket
looks great on you.

Thanks. I wasn't
sure about it...

Okay, listen, that's enough with
the special Queer Eyeepisode.

I have a house to buy.

I don't think you understand.

Everyone looking to buy this
house is as rich as you are.

You've got serious competition
in there.

Oh, you just said
the magic words, Jaxon.

Fallon Carrington
thrives on competition.

It's actually just Jax.
No "on."

Blake. What a lovely surprise.

You told security
to let me in, Alexis.

It can't be too surprising.True.

So, no Jeff by your side,
feeding you grapes?

He has actual companies to run.

Yeah, I got to tell you,
I'm, I'm actually surprised

you're still here at all.

Well, I know this marriage
was just payment for you

helping him try
to put me into prison.

And when that plan
failed, I just assumed

this magical romance
would fall apart.

You're wrong.

Jeff and I share
a love that is deep.

Only thing you two share

is a pathetic vendetta
against me.

I know what you're up to
with C.A.

Look,

I don't know what his offer was,

but I'll buy it
back with interest.

And maybe if you help broker a
deal, you can get a commission.

I mean, that's what you really
want anyway, right? Money?

How sad is this, Blake?

In the past, you would have
sent Fallon or Adam

to do your dirty work.

Clearly you've alienated
yourself from the entire family

'cause here you are,
groveling all alone.

I'm hardly groveling.

I understand, though.

You alienated me
from my family for years.

Only I didn't have a choice.

You did this to yourself.

You made a tactical error,

aligning your forces with Jeff.

Colbys always lose
to Carringtons.

You'll be nothing
but a casualty of war.

Lot of potential buyers,
Fallon.

What exactly
are you gonna do?

You'll see.

I just have to thin out
the competition a little.

I hear one of those floozies

from The Real Housewives
owns this place.

I swear I can smell the stench

of desperation and spray tan.

Oh, you know they filmed
a Marvel movie here.

But I'm sure the sci-fi geeks
only show up for, you know,

Dragon Con, Comic-Con.

Pretty much all the Cons.

Double homicide, right here.

Rumor has it there's still blood
under the floorboards.

I heard there was
a minor rodent infestation.

What?

I'm sure they won't come back.Rodents?

Porn house.

Now I'll just turn on
the Carrington charm

with the unsuspecting owner,

and the place will be mine.

Wait, who are these

Town & Country-looking
newcomers, and why

are they hugging
that old lady?

Because that old lady

is Esther Winslow, the owner.

She must know that family...
and love them.

You have got to
be kidding me.

Well, I guess I'll just have
to destroy a family of four.

Whoa.

You know those kids
are, like, six years old.

All is fair in love
and real estate.

Well, it's just not the same
here without you.

I don't understand why you had

to go to Mexico
in the first place.

I'll be home before you know it.
Promise.

So how's the Carrington Atlantic
sale going?

It's not.
Jeff Colby made an offer first.

He and Alexis think
this is the best way to hurt me.

You know, Fallon

has a good relationship
with Jeff.

I know things are tense
between you two,

but maybe she would
talk to him for you.

Yeah, I'm not sure about that.

If nothing else, it gives you
a reason to call her.

I know how much
you miss her, Blake.

Don't let your pride
stand in the way.

The hospital administrator said
that they have a spot for me,

so I could be practicing
medicine again in no time.

That's fantastic.

And just think, with Jeff
buying a pharmaceutical company,

both of the men

in my life will be
working in medicine.

Jeff's buying
a pharmaceutical company? Why?

It's a sound investment.

Everyone needs medicine, right?

Well,

I should take my mail
and be going.

Oh. This is for you.

Hmm.

Huh.

That's weird. It's an invitation

to a Valentine's Day party
at La Mirage.

From whom?

Doesn't say.
It's from a "secret admirer."

How wonderfully mysterious.

I do hope you'll go.

Practicing medicine
is great,

but we can't neglect
our personal lives.

I think I will go, Mother,
because I have

a pretty good idea
who invited me.

MICHAEL :
And I watch

a $1,500 bottle of champagne

fly out of Blake's hands
and shatter.

The poor bastard
never got to take a sip.

I haven't laughed
this much in years.

Vanessa is crazy
to let you go.

Because you, sir,
are an amazing man.

Why, thank you, kind lady.

And you are a lot more fun
when you're not blackmailing me.

Okay.

This one is to celebrate
our single status.

Because who needs a plus-one

when we have top-shelf
tequila to keep us company?

Hear, hear.
Hear, hear.

To being single.

I should probably call a car.

No, no, no, wait.
You can't leave.

The party's just
getting started.

Besides, who do you have
to go home to, anyway?

You are right about that.

I feel your pain, Michael.

But you don't have to be alone
tonight if you don't want to be.

LIAM:
Hey. Are you ready?

The restaurant we're going to
is supposed to be amazing,

and I'm starving.No time for dinner.

I have to pick out
a gift for Mrs. Winslow.

Do you think Esther would like
an early Easter basket,

maybe filled with Fabergé eggs?

Are you kidding?

You're right.
Go more traditional.

How about an original Picasso?

I'll see if I can pull one
from the Carrington vault.

Well, have you considered
doing something more personal?

Huh?I meant like

writing a letter, Fallon.

Okay? Tell this woman what
this house means to you.

All right? What it
meant to you as a kid.

Hmm. Yes.

I like it. I like it.

Lean in to the whole

grandmother thing,
really play up the nostalgia.

You know what? Attach it to a
box of hard candies and I'm in.

There you go.This won't take long.

I will meet you
at the restaurant.

Oh. Hi.

Leaving so soon?

We're late for dinner.
Don't want to lose

our reservation.

JAX:
So, I have some news.

No, no, no, no. Not now.

I am in the zone.

You may need to get
out of the zone.

I just got off the phone
with Winslow's broker,

and there's been a twist.

Turns out,
the old lady

only wants to sell to a family.

What?
I know.

I guess she was raised
in that house

and raised her own family there,

wants the tradition to continue,
blah, blah, blah.

I can't believe it.
This is discrimination.

We should call the ACLU.

I say we move on.

No.

I'm not giving up.

Not yet.

Dominique.

Thank you for coming.

Though you certainly
took your time.

Sorry I missed your call,
but I was tied up at the time.

So, what did I do to deserve
a summons from Blake Carrington?

Absolutely nothing.

Yet.

Hmm.

Thought I'd mix things up
for a change.

I need a favor from you.

Of course,
I'll pay handsomely.

And what exactly does
this favor entail?

Simple.

You have access to Jeff's house.
I need inside.

Specifically his office.

He's trying to buy
Carrington Atlantic,

and I need to find out
whatever I can about his plan.

So...

can I count on you? Sis?

Jeff and Alexis have a meeting
tomorrow afternoon,

so they'll be gone.

I can meet you there then
and get you past security.

That's perfect.However,

if I do this, I'm going to want

something more than money
in return.

Much more.

Good news. I just talked to Jax.

The letter to Mrs. Winslow
worked. I am back in the game.

See? I told you.

Sometimes it just takes a
personal touch with people.

Right. A personal touch,

with just a tiny bit
of embellishment.

How tiny?

Oh, it's really not a big deal.

Mrs. Winslow just
wants to meet me.

And my husband and my children.

Why would you do that?

Well, she said she wanted
to sell to a family.

So you just invented one?

I panicked. Okay?

I didn't think she would
actually want to meet everybody.

Anyway, we're all invited
over there tonight.

All of who?

You don't actually
have children.

Fallon, we're not
even married.

Well...
technicalities.

Look, if you just want to
check off the homeowner box,

there are other
places you can buy.

Why is this house
so important?

Because it just is.

Look, I know
it sounds weird,

but this house saved me
when I was a kid.

When Alexis and Blake
would be fighting,

I would just sneak over there,
and I would peak in the window,

just to get an idea
of what a happy family was like.

And they ate dinner together
and they played charades

and had movie nights,
and... I don't know.

Seeing a real family
made me realize

that things could be different.
Or better.

I know it sounds crazy.

No, it doesn't
sound crazy.

Crazy is accepting an invitation
for a family you don't have.

You have to tell
Mrs. Winslow the truth.

All right, who knows,
maybe she'll appreciate

the honesty, and you'll
still get the place.

You're right.
I should go talk to her.

But you're
coming with me.

You could have removed
the spare tire

before forcing me
in the trunk.

Just be glad I got you
past the gate.

I told Jeff's head of security

that I was going to pick up
some things I left in my room.

Well, with any luck,
this won't take me long.

I'll stand watch outside.

Excuse me, is
there a problem?

Ms. Deveraux, the door alarm
on Mr. Colby's office

just went off.DOMINIQUE:
Oh. I'm sorry.

That was me. I went in
to get a bottle

of champagne off Jeff's bar.

No harm, no foul.I see.

Well, still, no one's
allowed in there,

so I'll have
to let Mr. Colby know

when he returns.You're certainly devoted.

Duane, is it?

But here's the
thing, Duane.

I'd hate to
call my son

and tell him that in fact
you were the one in his office,

rifling through his desk,
drinking from his bar,

reeking of alcohol...He wouldn't believe that.

I think he might.

Make it quick, all right?

Crazy...

What's going on?

I followed Jeff and Alexis
as instructed.

They had some sort of a meeting
at Chlorcyte Health.

BLAKE:
Chlorcyte?

The big pharma company?

Why would they be having
a meeting there?

Well, your guess
is as good as mine.

But they're done now
and they're leaving.

You should vacate the premises.

Wow.

Fun idea for a party, huh?

You're here.

I mean, you're here.

So, did you, uh, send an
invite or receive one?Recipient.

And very flattered.

Really?

Do you feel the same way
about your admirer?

I think I do.

I mean, I haven't seen Nadia

in a while, but we've texted
a few times.

Nadia?

Wait, you mean
your nurse?

I know she feels bad
about how things ended,

and I think this is her way
of trying to reach out.

Hoping to reconnect,
you know?

Yeah. Yeah.

I bet you're right.

I'm sure she'll
be here soon.Thanks.

I-I'm gonna go look for her.

KIRBY:
Okay.

I'll be here.

Feeling like a moron.

FALLON:
Hi!

LIAM:
Fallon?

Why are you
driving a minivan?

And what are
you wearing?Oh.

I had no idea how comfortable
polyblend sweaters were.

Hmm.I decided

that the truth just wasn't
the best way to play this.

: So you
think that showing up

in a minivan dressed
as a soccer mom's

gonna convince her
you have a family?

Of course not.
But you and the two kids will.

What two ki...?

Oh, my God, what
did you do?

Did you buy two kids
from someone?

What? No.
Don't be ridiculous.

I'm renting them.

They're Tony
the gardener's kids,

and let's just say I made
a very generous donation

to their college fund.
Oh!

Don't forget, kids.
You get 20 bucks

for every time
you call me Mommy.

Okay?

This is never
gonna work.

Oh, yeah, it will.

They could totally pass
as our kids.

Ourkids?Yeah.

I thought I was coming for moral
support, not child support.

You're gonna lie to this woman
just so you can buy her house?

Well, only until
escrow closes.

I'm not gonna be a part of this.Liam, please.

You know how much getting
this house means to me.

I just hate lying.

And you won't have to, okay?
I promise.

Mrs. Winslow will just assume
that you're the father.

And I, of course,
am the very loving mother.

Mommy!Save it.

I told you, it only counts

when you're in front
of the old woman.

Hey.Hey.

You find Nadia?

Not yet.
I'm sure she'll be here soon.

What about you?
Did you send an invite

or receive one?

Sent, but he didn't
show up.

Well, he's an idiot.

And it's still early.

True.

Do you want to dance?

While you're waiting
for Nadia?

Sure.
Yeah, let's do it.

Yeah-- okay.

ADAM:
Oh, I see,

you like to lead.

Well,

I sort of have two left feet.

But on the plus side,
that means I'm really good

at dancing
in circles.Right.

Hey, what's that?

Oh.

You take a heart and put it on
when you've met your admirer.

♪ Overgrown

♪ Scales lack luster

♪ A howl's all I can muster...

Might as well.

Soon as Nadia arrives, my
heart will be spoken for.

Look, Adam, I should tell you...

Hey, I'm gonna go
check the lobby.

She might be in there.

Will you excuse me
for a moment?

I'll, I'll be right back.

Hey there.Vanessa, what are you...?

I've been missing you.

Really?

You sound so surprised.No, it's just

that when you stopped
responding to my texts, I...

Me?

You stopped answering
my text messages.

So I thought
you were upset.

Which you had
every right to be.

But it doesn't
matter now.

Because I'm
moving back.To Atlanta?

Mm-hmm.What about New York?

You-you found a place,
you're booking gigs...

Who told you that?

It must have been Jeff
when he talked to Monica.

But it sounds like
your music career

has really taken off.It is.

But I realized
I can pursue my music here

just as easily as I can
in New York.

What I couldn't pursue
is you.

I've missed you, too.

Is there any chance
we can pick up

where we left off?

Yeah. I'd like that.

Make mine extra dirty, please.

Yeah, yeah, olive juice

with a splash of vodka.

I got you.

This just came
for you, Mrs. Colby.

Thank you.

Well, who's that from?

Well, it's on
Carrington stationery.

It's from Blake.

Inviting us to dinner,

suggesting that
we celebrate together.

Do you have any idea
what he's talking about?

It's my lawyer.

Hello.

Wait, what?

That bastard.

SAM:
Adam?

What are you doing here?

I was invited.

That girl never listens.

Excuse me?Look,

I don't know what Kirby
sees in you.

The rest of us see
some sort of

"Christian Bale,
American Psycho,

only weirder" thing.

All right? But you better
not hurt her.

Kirby? What-what are you
talking about? I...

Hey! Was she out here?

No... but she wouldn't
be, would she?

Because yousent me
the invitation.

I'm gonna...

Um, Happy Valentine's.

I can explain?

Is this some kind of sick joke?

Are you working with Nadia
to set me up again?

What? No, I would never do that.

Then, then why?
Wh-Why, why would you do this?

Because I like you, okay?

You have a funny way
of showing it, all right?

You could have told me
that you sent me the invite

when you first got here.
Why didn't you?

Because clearly
I was the farthest thing

from your mind,
and I was too embarrassed

to tell you the truth.

So you chose to lie
to me instead?

All night long.

You made a fool of me,
searching for someone

who is never showing up.

If that's you liking me,
I'd, I'd rather you didn't.

You have such
a lovely home, Esther.

And you have a
lovely family, dear.

Your children
are adorable.

Oh, Mommy's perfect
little angels.

I love you, Mommy.

Aw.

It warms my heart to know
that these walls could be filled

with such a loving family.

Well, let me
heat up my tea,

and I'll show you
the rest of the house.

Okay, Esther.

Did you hear that?
Did you hear that?

Esther loves my family.
This place is mine.

Great. Can we wrap
this up, please?

Yeah, relax, relax.

I know you hate lying,
but think of it less as lying

and more as a sneak peek
into your future.

This is exactly how
I always imagined it:

a beautiful home,
husband, children...

Excuse me?Well, no, I mean, not
these children, obviously.

The younger one
has an overbite.

Did you forget that this whole
family charade thing

was just so
you could get the house?

It was supposed to be
a means to an end,

not the end itself.I'm sorry,

is there something wrong
with this being our future?

This was supposed to be
a quick stop on your journey,

not the final
destination.

But if-if you had bothered to
even talk to me for one second,

you would know that
this isn't what I want!

Oh, really?
Well, exactly what part

of my future don't you like?

Your future has kids.
Mine doesn't!

Bye-bye.

I'm sorry.

It was an accident.

He was wearing a
heart on his shirt.

I thought you two had
already matched up.

No, he thought
Nadia invited him.

The cuckoo
nurse that

Fallon was paying to like him?Yes.

Look, I'm sorry
for how it all went down,

but I'm not sorry
it ended, okay?

I told you, dating him
is a huge mistake.

I'm a grown woman.

Let me make my own mistakes.

I did-- you joined a cult,
remember?

It wasn't a cult!

I don't want you to get hurt.

What makes you think
I'm gonna get hurt?

Because I got hurt!

Fletcher is married.

He was lying to me
the whole time we dated.

I ignored the warning signs,
and I don't want you

to make the same mistake.

I'm sorry Fletcher hurt you.

But that doesn't mean
that Adam's gonna hurt me.

Kirby...

I'm following my heart.

I don't know
where it's taking me,

but it feels like
the right way to go.

♪ Next to you

♪ No matter what you do

♪ Next to you.

Oh, this all looks delicious.

Mrs. Gunnerson has
outdone herself again.

Sounds like we have company.

Oh, good. You got
my invitation.

I was worried that
you wouldn't show.

You son of a bitch.

You getting in the
pharmaceutical business now?

Heard you bought Chlorcyte.

You heard correctly.

You know damn well
Jeff was buying that company.

You have no reason
to outbid him for it.

No, no, I have
every reason.

You see, I figured out that your
second-rate husband is sick.

Uh, neurotoxicity, is it?

And oddly enough,
Chlorcyte is researching

a drug to cure just that.

Research that I have put
a halt to.

What do you want?

Well, please
join me.

I'm sure that we could
reach some sort of deal.

Like, say, I give
you Chlorcyte

in exchange for C.A.

Yeah, it belongs
to me.

And I want it back.

We don't even own it yet.

Yeah, but you will.

So, do we have a deal?

Not interested.

Well, I'm guessing

that you will change
your mind soon enough.

I mean, how bad are
the symptoms anyway?

You look a little shaky.

You think this is over?

See, there are plenty of other
pharma companies I can buy.

But there's only one C.A.

And it will be mine.

We'll see.

Here we are.

A little treat for everyone.

Do you like
freshly baked cookies?

Well, I think we do,
but one should never assume.

Do we like cookies, honey?

As a matter of fact,
I do like a good cookie.

Yes, thank you
for asking!

Wow.

Is everything okay?

Oh, everything is
just fine, Esther.

I just, I recently
found out that

my husband doesn't
want... trees

nearby.

I wasn't aware that my wife
wanted trees in her life.

You see, they do take
a lot of time and care.

Okay, I am more than capable
of taking care of a tree.

Thank you very much.

I mean, I might need a little
help from a few gardeners.

Maybe even a night gardener.

I have an excellent gardener,

but I don't think
he works at night.

Well, see, the problem really
isn't the trees, Esther.

It's more of the assumption
that we both wanted trees.

Why wouldn't I want trees?

Everybody wants trees!

Can we go now? I want
to go play Rocket League!

Yeah, and I want my money
for calling you "Mommy."

FALLON:
What?

She's so funny.

Sweetie, I don't have
any money for you.

My daddy says
you're rich.

Her daddy?

Isn't Liam their father?

Uh...

Um... stepfather.

You're divorced?

My first husband died.

In the war.

BETSY:
I want to go home.

Yeah, can we go?
I want to get paid.I want to leave!

Okay, all right!
It's bedtime, kids.

Why don't you go to the car, and
Daddy and I'll meet you there?

Right, send the kids
outside alone

in the dark--
mother of the year.

You know what?
I think I've had

about enough
of Daddy's snide comments.

Oh, you've had enough?Yeah.

I didn't want to be dragged into
this in the first place, Fallon.

I told you I hate lying...

Would you mind
explaining to me...?

I hate you,
I want my real mommy...Can we just go?

I don't want
to do this, Fallon.

Everybody, shut up!

I think we're
done here.

Yeah. Hey, kids,
let's go.

So, you were saying this house

gets a lot
of south-facing light?

Get the hell

out of my house,
you crazy bitch.

Michael, what's wrong?

Vanessa's back in town.

To stay.

What? Since when?

Since today.

She wants to start dating again.

Which is great.

But if she ever
found out about us,

about what we did...

Michael, relax.

Last night can be
our little secret.

A drunken moment
of weakness

on both our parts.

That's all.

So, this stays between us?

Of course.

I want you and Vanessa
to be happy... truly.

Thank you.

Hi, sweetheart, it's Mom.

Did you get back
to Atlanta safely?

Good.

Get some rest.

We'll talk tomorrow.

Hi.

Look, I'm really sorry.

I should have been honest
with my feelings from the start.

You have every reason
to be mad at me.

I'm not mad
at you, Kirby.

I'm mad at myself.

For not letting
go of Nadia.

I gave her my trust.

And she destroyed that trust.

I mean, she just got away
with it.

She never had to pay
for all those lies.

Wait, wait, wait.

Is this a bad idea?

I'm in the mood for a bad idea.

Didn't expect
to find you here.

Certainly not after
my epic mommy meltdown.

Yeah, I sort of surprised
myself.

Fallon, I had
to find out what...

What brought all this on?

I mean, your mind was suddenly
15 years down the road.

Moving out of the manor.

I think it made me
reexamine my life and...

made me think about what
I wanted my life to be, and...

I thought it was
about the house,

but... it wasn't.

It was more about

what the house represented.

And I decided
I liked that future.

Well, Fallon,
that's the problem.

You.

Youdecided.

You make all the decisions
in our life.

When we go to dinner,

where we vacation,

whose place we stay at,
and... you know, look,

most of the time
I don't really care.

But on the big things, I do.

And there's never
a compromise.

That's not true.
Really?

Fallon, we went from dating
to married with children,

and I didn't even know about it.

Well...

I didn't realize how
serious you were

about this whole
"no kids" thing.

It's just...

we both come from pretty
messed-up families.

I guess I was just kind of
hoping to break the cycle.

Yeah, well, me, too.

Just the other way around.

I've always wanted kids,

and I think that you and I
could do it right.

But if it's a choice

between you and children,

I mean... Liam, I choose you.

You really mean that?

Yeah.

You see, I'm all
about compromise.

Come here.

Tell you what.

Hmm?

Why don't we see
where life takes us?

Hmm.

All right,
maybe we'll want children.

Who knows?

Maybe we won't.

But we'll decide on it together.

And I will suspend
the house search

until we're both ready
to look for one.

Okay.

But I'm not backing down on
the 15-bedroom thing because...

Yeah, yeah, sure, sure.

Cristal!

You're home!

I took a late flight

and thought I'd surprise you.

Oh, it worked.

It has been
so lonely here without you.

Oh.

I'm happy to be back.

Well, I hope you spent
some quality time

with your family in Mexico.Yes.

I got exactly what I needed.

So, what's the latest
around here?

Are you back
at the helm of C.A.?

Let's just say
I'm still working on it.

Which reminds me, there...

is something I need
to talk to you about.

You can take that
right upstairs.

Dominique?

What the hell are
you doing here?

Didn't Blake tell you?

I'm moving in, dear.

Yeah, that's the something
I need to talk to you about.

Don't look so surprised,
Cristal.

After all, I am a Carrington.

This is where I belong.

See you at breakfast.
