All language subtitles for Dynasty (2017) - 04x20 - You Vicious, Miserable Liar.CAKES.English.C.updated.Addic7ed.com

- Previously on Dynasty...
- Your brain cells

are turning against one another,

causing significant
cognitive disfunction.

Now I get why Fallon gives me free rein

to schedule things
over your date nights.

Jeff and Michael are prominent
in the Black community.

You can't win without them.

I've landed a gig somewhere I
really belong... the hospital.

You should probably watch your back.

This is a hit piece on the hotel.
They just betrayed me.

I think we need to take a break, Fallon.

Oh, thank God!

I'm so happy you're...

Kirby.

Well, you don't seem that happy.

I thought you were Liam.

I didn't realize anybody
else chewed like that.

Well, did you come in here
to eat or just insult me?

I can't eat. When Liam said
he wanted to take a break

from our marriage, I didn't realize

that meant not answering
my texts or calls.

Do you not understand
what a break means?

He has been radio silent for days,

and I am honestly starting to lose it.

Although he did leave his
organic goose down pillow here,

so at least I know
he's not gone for good.

Unless he bought a new one.

Do you think he bought a new pillow?

I'm really not an expert
on Liam's pillow purchases,

but even if he did,
a break doesn't mean things are over.

Uh, for example,

Katy Perry and Orlando
Bloom took a break,

and now they're back stronger
than ever. Kabloom.

Maybe it just takes some time
apart to come back together.

What am I supposed to do
in the meantime? Learn to knit?

Here. Take this.

It'll get your mind off things.
Although,

I would stay away from page 33.

There's an article
about Blake's campaign,

and it's not the best picture of you.

Thank you, Kirby.
You've been such a help.

Don't mention it. Just make sure

to give that back to me.

Phase three testing

should be complete within a few days,
at which point

I will secure FDA approval
to bring the drug to market.

This is remarkable, Dr. Carrington.

I mean, your test subjects
are showing a 93% success rate

in the restoration of
mitochondrial health.

"Remarkable" is an apt word, Janice.

Plus, there is incredible potential

for commercial success.

And more importantly,

the prestige from this type

of development is gonna put the hospital

on the map as a cutting-edge
research facility.

We couldn't agree with you more.

Congratulations, Dr. Carrington.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

Dr. Robertson, 425.

I'm sorry. Am I interrupting?

Uh, thankfully, the meeting just ended,

but yes, you are interrupting my day.
Bye, now.

Amanda, what a nice surprise.

Oh. Well, I just wanted to say
"hello" before I got started.

Wonderful idea.

And I hope you have a great
first day as the hospital's

- newest legal counsel.
- Oh.

We are so happy to have another

- talented Carrington join the team.
- So, so happy.

Uh, thank you for giving
my sister such a nice,

warm welcome, Janice.

- You're incredibly sweet.
- Oh, thank you.

Incredibly sweet.

But you're not.

I didn't think you were serious

about getting a job with the hospital.

I thought that was your dry,
unfunny British sense of humor.

Well, I told you.

The hospital's just a much
better fit for me than aviation.

Oh. So you used nepotism
to get a job here?

I guess we're more alike than I thought.

Look, the truth is I...
I do actually want

to get to know my
family here in Atlanta.

Maybe we could do, like,
a daily lunch in the café?

Really? Well...

See now that...
was my dry sense of humor.

I'm only gonna warn you once.

You are just a lawyer.
I'm chief of staff.

So, stay out of my way.

Okay, well,
it's my job to protect the hospital.

So you feel free to call me

when you're inevitably
sued for malpractice.

Just put me on speed dial.

Bye now.

I swear to God,

Dominique is gonna drive me insane.

And this is new information?

She's not answering my calls,

because she's run away
somewhere with her husband.

Hold on. Dom got married?

Yeah, I just found out. 14 years ago

to some guy named "Brady."

And never officially got divorced.

But don't tell anyone.

I don't think Brady knows
they're still married.

Don't worry.
I can barely follow all that.

So, a few other companies
are apparently ramping up

- for manned missions to Mars.
- Mars? Really?

Yeah, and I'm concerned.

I can't be another Buzz Aldrin.

What is wrong with Buzz Aldrin?

That man is a national hero.

Yeah, for being
the second guy on the moon.

I'm not gonna be second in anything.

Yeah, you seem a little amped.

I'm fine. I was having trouble
focusing a few weeks ago,

but I'm back on track now.

So, where are we at with Blake
and the oil rig legislation?

Once he's elected,
I want to be able to start immediately.

Okay. I'm on my way to see him now.

- I'll get an update.
- Good.

You focus on Blake,
I'll focus on getting more funding

- for Colby Co. Space.
- More funding?

Do you have any idea how
much it costs to get to Mars?

- Um... no.
- Yeah.

Neither do I, but I know it's
more than I got in my wallet.

Well, then, it's a hell of a
lot more than I got in mine.

Thanks.

Have you seen Sam?

He's been MIA since that
hotel article came out.

I'm worried we went too far.

Sam's a big boy.

He knows it's nothing personal.

Look, what's more important...

losing a few hotel bookings,

or having a Senate campaign destroyed?

That depends on who you ask.

Well, I'm asking you,
so I think I know the answer.

Ah, Michael, come on in.

The farmers'
union super PAC pulled their support

from my campaign, so I need your help.

I don't know any farmers.

Well, you don't need to.

I just convinced Yang Industries

to sponsor a new athletic
center at Decatur High, which is

where the head of the teachers'
union works,

and where Michael Culhane
went to high school.

And if we can get the teachers'
union on board...

Their financial support would more

than make up for the farmers.

So you're bribing them

with a new athletic center?

No. It's just called

"corporate sponsorship."

I'm just helping broker the deal.

Um, sounds like you don't need me.

I need you to vouch for me
with the principal, who happens

to be your old English teacher.

And the proposal will
sound better coming

from a star alumnus than from a...

A greedy billionaire?

Or the person responsible

for poisoning Clarke
County's water supply?

Yeah, I'm not comfortable with this.

Hey, if you want comfort,
go get a massage.

You want to help your community,
Jeff wants his rockets,

and I want my airfield,
this is how we do it.

So if you want to back out on the deal,

- you better let me know.
- Fine. I'll make the call.

But I don't think it'll make
one bit of difference to anyone.

Well, then it shouldn't be
a problem for you.

Why aren't you at work?

Everything at La Mirage
is falling apart.

Room bookings are down,
conferences are canceled,

parties are slowing.

And reporters are calling me nonstop.

All because of what the
Carringtons put in the press

linking me to Leo, the Mafia and

a cursed hotel.

Oh, I mean, they're acting

like La Mirage is the
hotel in The Shining.

Oh, I love that movie. So scary.

Not the point. Got it.

Kirby, I need to thank you.

This magazine just gave me the solution

- to my marriage problems.
- That magazine?

Mm-hmm. I realized I need to do exactly

what Katy and Orlando apparently
did to recapture their magic.

- Counseling?
- Not just any counseling.

I made an appointment
with the marriage mediator

they supposedly used,
a woman who specializes

in Hollywood relationships.

That entire story sounds fake,

and last time I checked,
you're not in a Hollywood relationship.

Atlanta is basically Hollywood East,

ergo, I'm basically a celebrity.

The point is, she's used
to dealing with power couples,

so I am on my way to
L.A. to go meet with her.

That's a great idea.
What time do we leave?

- We?
- I need to get away from this PR mess,

so I'm coming with you.

Hey, I need to get away, too.

Okay, fine, fine.
Meet me at the jet in two hours.

I have to stop by the office first,
and then it's time

to give my marriage the
perfect Hollywood ending.

Ooh, but not the ending
from The Shining, right?

It was really scary.

Thank you again, Kirby. So, so helpful.

No dessert for you on the plane.

Finally.

I was having the best round of my life.

I figured whatever it was could wait

until I birdied the last hole.

Plus, I don't actually work for you.

No, but you are here to advise me.

That was the point of you staying on

as a stockholder, remember?

Here I am, happy to be of
service in any way possible.

Easy now. I need you, a fellow CEO,

to hold down the fort
while I am out of town

dealing with some personal matters.

Do you also want me to advise
you on these personal matters?

Because I know that's CEO
code for trouble at home.

You're not wrong.

But I'm going to L.A.
to fix those issues.

And didn't you just get divorced?

Fair enough. Yeah, this is one area

you shouldn't put me on a pedestal.

- Never have, but thank you.
- You're welcome.

Don't worry.
This company's safe with me.

Don't be surprised if the stock doubles
by the time you get back.

It's two days. Don't go crazy.

Hey, Eva? I have business in Los
Angeles for a day or two.

I am not to be disturbed,
and Colin is in charge

- until I get back.
- Of course. Have a great trip.

_

Eva?

Could I get some tea, please?

Certainly.

You want to go to space?

Mars, specifically.

But... why?

Between climate change,
rising ocean levels,

and overpopulation,
we are decimating this planet.

But with the help of my team,

I've come up with a viable
plan for colonizing Mars.

Wow. That's... ambitious.

Yeah, which is why I need
to step up production.

But speed comes at a cost,

and I heard you've come into
some family money recently.

You're a healer, so I was wondering

if you might want to
help me save the planet?

Ah. I'm not sure

physical therapy is the
same as going to Mars.

Plus, I just got control
of my family business.

I'm not looking to make any big changes.

- I'm sorry.
- I understand.

Just wanted to ask.

Oh.

- Are you okay?
- Mm.

I've been getting these
headaches recently.

You might want to get checked out.

Not that they're contagious, but

I did just have a brain tumor.

I'm fine, okay?

Thanks for seeing me.

Of course. And I know you'll find a way.

I always do.

No, no, no.
None of these are good enough.

That last estate was
worth over $20 million.

Yeah, but the Carrington
Manor is worth a lot more.

I need something bigger and better.

Perhaps if I stop by the manor,

I can get a better sense
of what you're looking for.

That's not gonna happen.
I'd really rather they didn't know

I was looking for a home
of my own right now.

Janice, nice to see you again.

Twice in one day.

Talk to you later?

Dr. Carrington,
I'm afraid I come with bad news.

Your anti-aging drug
trial has been shut down.

- By the FDA? Why? W-When?
- Not the FDA.

It was the board, on advice of counsel.

Turns out the hospital's
liability insurance limit

is too low to cover this
kind of private research.

So we buy more insurance.

Am I the only one who can
think outside of the box here?

You-you called it
"remarkable" this morning.

I know. But the legal department
did a secondary review,

and thought the risks
outweighed the benefits.

The legal department did
a secondary review, huh?

All right, well, it looks like

I need to do a review
of the legal department.

I would like to thank Mr. Carrington

for helping broker this deal

for a new athletic center
here at Decatur High.

It will have a major impact on
the school and the community.

Thank you.

You know,
the whole point of running for Senate is

to improve the lives of my constituents.

Well, why wait for the Senate seat

if I could help someone today?

And another thank-you
goes to Michael Culhane,

our own high school hero who
was so kind to introduce me

to Mr. Carrington. Come on.

Uh, thanks, Principal Stanley.

I'm happy I could help.

What about the poisoning
of the water supply

in Clarke County by Carrington Atlantic?

How do we know something
like that won't happen here?

It was never proven that
we poisoned any water,

and it was a long time ago. Now...

I was talking to Mr. Culhane.

How are you okay with this?

Didn't your father die because
of what Carrington Atlantic did?

Well, I don't think
I should comment on that.

This is not the right place,

and Mr. Carrington

can speak for himself.

Nice answer. Are you sure you're
not the one running for office?

Thank you all for coming out.

Let's get out of here.

Remind me why

we're staying here and not my
favorite Beverly Hills hotel?

My friend who owns the place insisted

we stay here in the best suite.

Is that a problem?

Not for me.

Is that Timothée Chalamet?

- Wait. Is it "Shalamett" or "Shalamay"?
- Um, I don't know.

- Is it "Timothy" or "Timothay"?
- I don't know.

Okay. I can't with the two of you.

I am going up to the room to unpack

and center myself before
my appointment tomorrow.

Okay. Bye.

What should we do first?
Should we go to the beach or the pool?

I mean, it's a vacation.
I don't want to spend the whole time

- in the lobby.
- Sam!

Nancy! Ah!

Thank you so much for
letting us stay here.

Nancy and I met at a hotelier
conference last year.

And we were both drunk the whole time.

He is not lying.

I'm so glad you called.

Really, it is perfect timing.

I think I'm finally ready to
try something new in life,

and there is no one I'd rather
sell my baby to than you.

Wait. You're buying a baby?!

The hotel is my baby.

- And it would be perfect for Sam.
- Thank you.

Have a wonderful time.

Reach out if you need anything at all.

- Okay, Mama.
- All right.

Thank you.

- Mm, have fun.
- See you!

You're buying this hotel?

Thinking about it.

I was gonna tell you,
I promise, so don't get mad.

Mad? This is so exciting!

I've always wanted to
have a weekend hideaway.

- How soon is this happening?
- Why don't we talk about this later?

Let's have fun! We're in L.A., right?

Like you said, it's a vacation.

Was our arrangement unclear?

You were supposed to convince
people to trust me, not act

- like...
- Like you killed my father?

I am not gonna relitigate the past.

We had an agreement.

You were supposed to make
me look like a good guy,

not this "no comment" crap.

Hold on. I was supposed to support you,
not lie for you.

You're definitely not the good guy here.

Well, at least I'm not a hypocrite.

You know what?

Since everyone's going
back on their word,

I'm scrapping the athletic center.

You cannot do that.

You already promised
the school your support.

Oh, like you promised me yours?

Driver, pull over.

I'm gonna walk.

Before this guy stabs
me in the back again.

What a morning.

- Did you see that view?
- I know.

It's amazing. When you buy this hotel,

we can stay in this room
every time we come visit.

So, what do you want to do first?

Shopping on Rodeo Drive?

Or maybe catch an episode
of The Price Is Right?

- You're being weird.
- No, I'm not.

Nothing weird here.
Everyone loves The Price Is Right.

Fine.

I don't know if I'm buying
this place or not, but if I do,

it wouldn't be to just come visit.

What do you mean?

Well, I've been toying

with the idea of buying a property

on the West Coast and
expanding my brand for a while.

And it seems like a particularly
good time to get out of Atlanta.

You were going to move here?
And you didn't tell me?

When were you gonna say something?

- Well, maybe after Plinko?
- Sam!

Well, Kirby, I didn't tell
you because I didn't want you

to try to talk me out of it.

This could be the perfect
solution to my problems at home.

I could let Culhane manage La Mirage,

and I would come out here.

You wouldn't be happy in L.A.

Everything is so fake.

Oh, please. I'm all about fake,
and I'm loving this hotel.

The spa looks insane.

Should we hit it up and then
maybe go to Madame Tussauds?

I don't want to go to the spa with you,

or to see creepy wax people.

Kirby, I haven't even made up
my mind yet. You can't get mad.

Yes, I can,
but I will put it on hold until after

- The Price Is Right.
- Fine.

I'll see you in the
lobby after my massage.

Just come on down!

Hi.

I'm Fallon Carrington.
Am I in the right place?

I guess we'll find out once we start.

Have a seat. I'm Anya.

Hi. Uh, so,

I am here to fix things with my husband

and to get my marriage back on track.

But I need your help
to make that happen.

I see.

What? What?
Is there something on my face?

Hold this.

Are you kidding me?

Is this some kind of gimmick?

Because I did not fly 3,000
miles to hold Bugs Bunny.

Or to see some L.A. con woman.

You can come inside and
see my degrees later.

You're too stressed and self-involved

to appreciate them right now.

Mm. Great deduction.

And sarcastic, I see.

The reason that you're
holding the bunny is because

pet therapy... even with fake animals...

has been proven to lower blood pressure

by activating the
parasympathetic nervous system

and releasing calming endorphins.

Yeah, I'm not getting any of that.

Mm, doesn't work if you're
strangling the animal.

Okay. Are these diplomas
of yours from the L.A. Zoo?

I have a masters in marriage
counseling from UCLA

and a doctorate in clinical
psychology from Stanford.

Okay, fine. You're qualified. Now what?

Takes a certain kind of person

to come alone to marriage mediation.

I'm guessing you like to be in control?

Solving problems on your own?

Anyone could have guessed that.

My job is to read people,
which is why you need to bring

your husband with you.

Well, how am I supposed to bring
him if he won't even talk to me?

Okay, okay, okay, I will figure it out.
Anything

to get you to stop staring at me.

Although, you know,
I am starting to wonder

if you really did see Katy and Orlando.

I can neither confirm nor deny that.

But I'm looking forward
to working with you both.

My bunny, please.

Oh.

Here you go.

It's a pleasure doing business with you.

Did you just give away Colby
Co.'s first gold record?

I'm not giving anything away. I sold it,

along with the entire Colby Co.
music catalog.

That division is worth a small fortune,
which he just paid.

So you rented out the lounge to
have a fire sale of your assets?

Okay, a fire sale makes me
sound desperate. This is a plan.

Those parts of Colby Co. are history.

Right, your history.

This is your life's work.

It was my life's work.

But I have a new goal now,
and I realized

I don't have to go begging
for money for Colby Co. Space.

I can invest in myself.

And what if it doesn't work,

and you lose everything?

That's why it's called betting
on yourself. It's a risk.

It's too big of a risk, brother.

This could be a huge mistake.

And I am only saying this as a friend.

Yeah, well,
I didn't ask for your opinion, friend.

I'm gonna do whatever it
takes to make this happen.

So either buy something, or move along.

- Great. Thank you.
- Sure.

You've made your point.

I've come to apologize.

I shouldn't have sabotaged
you at Primetime Air.

But at least you ended
up with a better job.

Maybe you should even be thanking me.

Is this what counts as
an apology around here?

Yeah, it is when you add cookies.

Mm. Okay, well,
I am a sucker for a sweet treat. Fine.

I accept your sad apology,

and I most certainly accept the cookies.

Fantastic. So now we can talk

about what's best for the hospital.

I would really appreciate
it if you would consider

reinstating my trial
as soon as possible.

Oh, um, no. I accepted your apology.

I just... I haven't changed my mind.

I'm acting in the best
interest of the hospital,

and it's not personal.

Your trial's a liability.

Oh, please.
You're just trying to make a fool of me.

I don't think you need
any help doing that.

You know, when I take this

to another hospital and make billions,

the board is not gonna be happy

that you... you tanked it

because of some sibling rivalry.

Or perhaps even finding a
hospital and new lab assistants

and cutting-edge equipment...
I mean, that could take months.

Plus, you might not even get
an approval at a new hospital,

- you know, now you've been shut down here.
- Wow.

I'm starting to understand why

my mother literally gave you away.

Liam, please call me back.

I really want to fix us.

I just can't do it without you.

Literally. I'm not allowed.

Please?

I miss you.

- Fallon Carrington's office.
- Hey, Eva, it's me.

By any chance, has Liam called

or come by the office, looking for me?

No, I haven't heard from him.

Is something wrong in Los Angeles?

No, no.

I mean, yes, but nothing work-related.

I-I'm sorry, I don't mean to pry.

I just know sometimes it helps
to get it all off your chest.

Look, I didn't come to L.A.
for business, okay?

I came to see a marriage

mediator, but I really need
Liam to do this with me,

and I can't get ahold of him,
which is why I called you.

Although this is not
something I want shared.

I am so sorry to hear that.

And my lips are sealed.

I can camp out here, you know,
to make sure I don't miss him

if he calls or stops by.

And if he does,
I will let you know right away.

That would be great. Thank you, Eva.

Of course.

Hey, Liam, it's Eva.

I remembered how you mentioned

that Brian Rosenthal
was one of your idols.

I mean, who doesn't have

a Pulitzer Prize-winning idol, right?

Anyway, I just scored two
tickets to see him speak.

Figured you might want to go.

Anyway,
shoot me a text if you're interested.

Don't you run away from me, Sammy Jo.

- We need to talk.
- Okay, okay.

I see what you're doing here,

but you can't tag team me
into not buying this hotel.

I haven't decided yet.

Wait. You're buying this hotel?
Fine, whatever.

Buy the Hollywood Bowl for all I care.

And he's gonna move here.

One problem at a time.

My marriage takes precedence.

- Give me your phone.
- What? Why?

Because Anya needs Liam
with me to mediate.

And he's screening my calls,
so I'm gonna call from your phone.

I have called Liam
maybe twice in my life,

and both times, I was looking for you.

He's gonna know it's you calling.

- Well, maybe not.
- Trust me.

He won't take any chances.
I know how he thinks.

Fine. You're right.
He's not gonna answer.

Okay. Does this mean we can talk

- about the Sam issue now?
- Oh, my God.

Not just yet.

Just the person I was looking for.

Would you like a cup of tea?

No, thank you.
I've had enough British bitterness

for one day.

Father's latest surprise
child is using the hospital

to play out a petty sibling rivalry.

- Amanda?
- Mm-hmm.

She seems so level-headed.

Her head is anything but level.

She's vindictive,
and she's shut down my clinical trial,

which is why I need your help.

Well, I'm not sure she'd
listen to reason from me.

I'm her surprise stepmother.

Plus, I've got my hands full with Beto

and my own sibling rivalry.

Yeah, I'm-I'm not asking you to
get involved as our stepmother.

I'm asking you to get involved

as the head of the
Carrington Foundation.

Well, I'd like to help,
but it doesn't feel right

to step in and use the
foundation as leverage.

I understand.

You know, I just thought,
you know, I saved your life,

and maybe you'd be willing

to do something a
little extra to help me.

But... guess I was wrong.

Adam, wait.

When I told you I know how Liam thinks,

I didn't mean I wanted to play
him in a live performance.

Would you relax? It's gonna be fine.

She doesn't even know
what Liam looks like,

and I'll do most of the talking anyway.

Oh. There she is.

I'm so glad you were able
to get your husband to come.

You must be Liam.

Yes, this is Liam.

Yes, I am Liam.

So let's just jump right in.
What do you say? Yeah?

Okay, so, Liam, my husband,

has a problem with the amount
of time I devote to work.

But he wouldn't love me if
I was someone different.

So we're a little stuck.

Thanks for setting the scene, Fallon.

Hmm.

- What is she doing?
- It's her thing. Just wait.

I'm having trouble reading you, Liam.

Oh.

Why did you want to take a break?

Oh, um, well, I, uh...

I felt like I needed some space

to sort out my thoughts and to, um...

And to write.

Yeah, to do some writing, because

- I am a writer.
- He's a writer.

Mm. Very often, the male energy feels

like it needs to solve the problem,

- and when it can't, it runs away.
- Ooh!

Ooh, ooh! That's good.

He is the one running away. I love that.

- What else?
- Fallon, a moment.

Liam, can you give me
any specific examples

of when you felt there
was a problem with Fallon

you couldn't solve?

Yes, definitely. Plenty.

Okay, I think "plenty" is a strong word.

Um, just recently,

she didn't show up to an awards show

where I was nominated and won.

- Uh...
- Thank you very much.

And even before that,

she had a really bad reaction

when I thought I had a kid,

who ended up being my dad's,

not mine.

And she totally hates my mother.

Okay, Liam, darling, I don't think Anya

needs to hear about your parents.
You don't care about that.

Actually, most current-day
problems are seeds planted

in childhood which blossom in adulthood.

You know, I would love to get your take

on one of my current-day problems.

No. Absolutely not.

Fallon, let Liam speak.

You'll have your turn.

Start at the beginning.

I was born in Venezuela.

Principal Stanley.

I'd offer you a drink,
but that seems weird.

I don't need a drink.

Do you know that the athletic
center isn't happening?

I do, and I'm sorry.

I should have never put
you in that position.

Working with someone
like Blake can be toxic.

I don't blame Blake. I blame you.

- Me?
- This school was on the bubble for closure,

but the athletic center was
going to bring an influx

of cash and excitement.

Without it, the school closes,

people lose jobs,
and kids are bused all over.

Okay, but you don't understand.

- Blake Carrington is...
- I understand sometimes

you work with people that you don't like

in order to get what you need.

That's what I was doing.

I thought that's what you were doing.

Actually, I thought I was
standing up for my principles.

You can't live on principles.

Said the principal.

Can I hold the bunny now?

I think Liam has made his point.

Your husband's trying
to tell you something.

I think my husband should be focusing

on my husband's issues.

Please. I have the bunny, honey.

So, anyway, I... I thought

I was running away from my
business problems by coming here,

but I think I was running
away from Blake and Cristal.

You know, I-I see them as family,

but I worry they don't
see me the same way.

In-laws can be tricky.

This was a wonderful breakthrough.

Yes, a wonderful breakthrough.

Okay, it's my turn now.

I am so sorry,
but we've run out of time.

I think this has been a
very successful session.

It really has been.

Thank you so much, Anya.

Thank you.

What now?

I feel like I need to tell you this,

as a doctor, and because I think

that you would want to know.

Your husband is pretending to be

someone he isn't.

- He's gay.
- Oh, that?

I know you like to solve
problems on your own,

but sometimes,
you can't solve the problem at all.

Sometimes the other person just
needs to find their own path,

and you just need to give
them the space to do so.

You know what? You keep the bunny.

You could use the endorphins.

The fate of your marriage
is in Liam's hands now.

Are you still giving me
the silent treatment?

I thought that was just
for the plane ride.

I will pay you back for
hijacking your therapy lady.

I'm not not talking to you.

I'm just processing what Anya said,

and now I realize what I need to do.

- Which is?
- Nothing.

No more calling or texting Liam.

Anya was right.

This is a problem I can't solve.

The therapy bunny is
in Liam's court now.

I think I have a plan, too.

Which, I'm assuming, doesn't involve

- buying the hotel in L.A.?
- No.

I can't believe I almost bought a hotel

just to avoid a confrontation
with Blake and Cristal.

Which can probably wait till morning.

Do you want me to come with you?

No, but I was touched

you were thinking of
moving to L.A. with me.

I never said that.

It was implied.

Hmm.

I assume you're here to apologize?

No. I came to follow
through on our agreement.

I spoke to the heads
of the teachers' union,

and they agree to support you,

contingent upon reinstating the deal

- for the new athletic center.
- How'd you get them

- to trust me?
- I didn't, and they don't.

They trust me, and agreed that
a deal with you was better

- than no deal at all.
- See?

That wasn't so hard.

We can all get what we want.

This PAC money will last me

till my final campaign fundraiser.

Oh, one last thing. I promised them

that one of your first
acts as senator would be

to push through a federal
tax on oil companies

that directly funds education.

Some of my biggest
donors are oil companies.

I never would have agreed to that.

I know, but you need this money,

and if you don't make this pledge,

well, the teachers'll walk.

Fine.

I'll put out a press release.

See? Now that wasn't so hard.

I'm so glad we could do this.

Yes, uh, me, too. I mean,

the reason I wanted
to stay in Atlanta was

to get to know my new family,

and you are a part of that.

Agreed.
And congratulations on the new job.

- Mm.
- But speaking of family,

I was wondering if you might take

another look at Adam's drug trial?

He mentioned something about

the legal department
giving him some trouble?

That's correct.
Upon secondary review, we found

that the hospital's insurance
limits were just too low

for that kind of private research.

Well, it seems like
there's an easy solution

to protect the hospital

and allow Adam's trial
to move forward...

buy more insurance.

Well, that wasn't the legal
department's recommendation.

Or mine.

I understand doing
what you feel is right,

which is why I'm prepared

to put the full weight of
the Carrington Foundation

behind him. If his trial

is not reinstated, we'll be forced

to pull all of our hospital funding.

I'm quickly learning that a lunch

with a Carrington is never just a lunch.

Do you think the hospital can
afford to lose Adam's trial

and the five Carrington
Foundation trials?

It won't be a good look
for your first week.

You're just like him, aren't you?

Not at all.

But I owe him.

You know, perhaps I've overstepped.

I will change my recommendation
about the insurance,

and Adam's project will
be able to move forward.

Perfect.

Well, I should get going.

But this was lovely.

Yes. Uh, we should do it again soon.

Hi. Can you have all

of the Carrington
Foundation research files

on my desk when I return?

And don't let anyone see you.

Thank you.

Do you consider me a part
of this family or not?

- Come on in.
- Where have you been?

Not important. Wait. Why? Do I look tan?

Never mind. Look, I know
I'm not married to Steven anymore,

but I have always done
what's best for this family.

- We know that.
- Yeah, so when

you leaked that story to the press

about me and Leo and the hotel,
it hurt me,

and it also made me wonder.

So, if you don't see me
as part of this family,

I want to know now.

Of course we think of you as family.

I'm so sorry.

Haven't you learned,
that's how the Carringtons

treat each other?

Uh, but I am sorry

I didn't give you a
heads-up about the plan.

That's my bad.

- Your bad?
- Mm-hmm.

- Really? That's all?
- How about

I take you on a wine
tasting in Dahlonega?

And we can put this
whole thing behind us.

Cristal, hold on.

"My bad" and a wine tasting aren't going

to undo all the damage
you did to my hotel brand.

Those are just words and wine.

This did not go the
way Anya said it would.

Jeanette? Hey, Jeanette,
can you come here?

Yes, Ms. Carrington?

Have you seen Liam's
organic goose down pillow?

It was right here on the bed

before I left for L.A.,
and now it's not here.

I'm sorry, Ms. Carrington.
I haven't seen it.

Maybe Mr. Ridley took
it when he stopped by?

Liam stopped by? He was here?

Just for a minute.

I can ask the others if
they've seen the pillow.

No. No. There's no need to look for it.

It's gone.

I'm happy to report that
you are one step closer

- to having a launch date.
- How so?

Well, I got Blake the
campaign financing he needed.

I can't believe I'm actually
helping him, but

if it means getting what
we want when he's senator,

then so be it.

Are you listening to a
word that I'm saying?

Huh? Yeah. Yeah. Sorry.

It's just hard to focus on anything else

when I know there's a spy
watching everything I do.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about corporate espionage.

I heard an unconfirmed rumor

that Elon Musk has designs

for a Space Hotel that sounds like mine.

That can't be a coincidence.

And I know who's tipping him off...

Brady Lloyd.

You think Dom's husband is a spy?

None of this was happening
until he showed up.

Jeff, Elon Musk has been in
the space race for years,

and I'm sure any design
similarities are a coincidence,

if they exist.

You sound a little paranoid.

Yeah, well, you know what they say.

Just 'cause you're paranoid
doesn't mean you're wrong.

Look, I'm sorry, but I got to ask.

Are you still taking your
neurotoxicity medication?

Come on, man. Of course.

- Hey, you want to check the bottle?
- No.

Look, I'm sorry.

I just want to make sure you're okay.

Yeah, I'm fine, okay?

I've never felt better.

I just need to get back to work.

Okay, cool.

I'll get out of here.

- And you're all set.
- Great.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

What are you two doing here?

We set up an interview
with the Atlanta Mirror.

- We're meeting a reporter here.
- Why?

So you can finish trashing my hotel?

No, no. Quite the opposite.

I'm-I'm here to show
my faith in your hotel.

I'd like to have my final
campaign gala here if you agree.

Really? You would do that?

I-I mean, yes, yes, of course I agree.

And the new club
should be ready in one or two weeks.

It's perfect timing.

Mr. Carrington,
you ready to do this interview?

I got to say, I'm a little surprised

you wanted to meet at your
ex-son-in-law's hotel,

especially after all the bad press.

Sam Jones is not my ex-anything.

He's family.

And there are some
things I want to correct

for the record, so let's sit.

Well, you were right.
Words can only go so far.

So I realized we needed to
do something meaningful.

That apology was genuine.

And so is my forgiveness.

But I still want to go on that wine tour

so don't forget about that.

Speaking of which,
let's go have some wine.

How was Los Angeles?
Did it all work out?

Uh, not quite.

I'm giving Liam some space

to figure things out,
but who knows how long that'll take.

Well, I'm sure everything will be fine.

Oh, and, uh, here are some messages

from when you were gone,
and Ezra Feldman called.

- Ezra Feldman?
- Mm-hmm.

Well, he's an A-list divorce attorney

here in Atlanta. Why did he call?

I'm not sure. He didn't say much.

He was asking if you had a lawyer

that he could reach out to,
but I told him you didn't,

and you weren't available.

Oh, my God.

Liam must have hired him.

I can't believe this.

I-I hate to say this, but...

maybe you should get your own attorney.

I just don't want to see you get hurt.

Thank you, Eva, but right now,
I'd just like to be alone, okay?

This is the one.

It's a beautiful piece of property,
Dr. Carrington.

Now that things are back on track,

I should be able to make
an offer in the next week.

I am so glad I was able

to assist you in finding a new home.

A new home... for a new dynasty.

Dr. Larson,

thank you so much for coming.

I'm not sure why I'm here after
the way your brother treated me.

Believe me,
my brother and I frequently disagree

about how things should be done.

So how can I help you?
I can't really stay for long.

Well, as part of the hospital's
legal team, it's important

that I understand all of the
research that we're conducting.

I was told that the
Carrington Foundation

had five trials in operation,

but then,
when I checked the files myself,

I could only see four.

Yours was the trial that was shut down?

That's right.
I was researching a new Alzheimer's drug

when... I was fired.

Well, I just found that strange,

because you seemed to be
making so much progress.

I was. I tried to tell Dr. Carrington

that these things take time,

and the initial results were promising,

but he wouldn't hear it.

Well, I had another scientist
take a look at your research.

She found an interesting side effect.

- What side effect?
- An anti-aging side effect.

Which I find curious,

because Dr. Carrington is currently

fast-tracking an anti-aging drug.

Perhaps I can stay after all.

Great.

Well, hello, beautiful.

You're in a good mood.

And why shouldn't I be?
Everything's coming up roses.

Mm. Unfortunately, roses do have thorns.

What are you talking about?

When you mentioned the farmers
were pulling their support,

an alarm went off in my head,
so I did some digging.

It turns out, the union heads
got a visit from my brother.

- Beto?
- He used my family's name

and threatened to disrupt
the import-export chain

between the farmers and
their Mexican distributors

unless they dropped
their support for you.

Well, why would he do that?

He's targeting you in order to get to me

and the money he wants.

Well, we need to figure out
how to handle this.

I will not let him derail my campaign.

I know...

and I know how to handle him.

Hello?

Oh, hi. Sorry.
I-I didn't realize anyone was here.

Why are you working so late?

Just avoiding the tragedy that
is my marriage. That's all.

Why are you here?

Eva asked me to drop off
some files on her desk.

Plus, it's not like I have anybody

waiting at home for me, either.

Misery loves company.
Would you like a drink?

Happily.

- Do you want to talk about it?
- Nope.

I think Liam wants a divorce.

I contemplated calling him,

even though I said I wouldn't,
but then I realized,

it wouldn't matter 'cause he's
not answering my calls anyway.

My wife did the same thing.

And while I did act poorly,

it really hurt when she shut me out.

For the first time in my life,

I have no idea what to do.

Powerlessness is not a pleasant
feeling for people like us.

No.

I don't like the way any of this feels.

I'm so sorry.

I know how terrible this is.

Wish I could do something
to make it better.

Thank you for being here for me.

Of course. Enjoyed my time in charge.

That's not what I meant.
