All language subtitles for Dynasty s07e11 The Ball.efng

Mr. Carrington's waiting to see you,
Mrs. Colby.

Oh, is he?
Well, he'll just have to wait, Gerard,

because I have some additional notes
for the ball that I want you to take down.

Now, first of all, David Jones
is sending his personal assistant

to do the flowers in the house.

And I want you
to tell Mrs. Gunnerson

that I'm very happy
with her choice of desserts,

but I've seen this wonderful one
in this book that I think--

[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHlNG]

Are you quite ready to see me now?

All right, Gerard, you can go.

All right, Nlake, what's this all about?

It's about you trying to make a deal
with Michael Culhane,

trying to buy up his shares of stock
in the Crater.

I'm a businesswoman.
I have a right to operate as I see fit.

"Right to operate."
Does that mean dealing with a man

who's destroying
your daughter's life?

If anything's going to destroy her,

it's gonna be you
and your refusal to let her go.

Ne that as it may,
I want to warn you about something.

If you buy one share in the Crater,

you will end up
with one share of nothing

because I'll shut the project down
if I have to.

ALEXlS:
You wouldn't dare.

That's all you've got left.
You're bluffing.

Nluffing, am l?

You're going to find out
that I never bluff.

Never.

I hope you enjoy your ball, because it's
the last one that you're going to give.

You are on your way
out of this house.

And you too.

NEN:
My brother making his usual noises.

Adding up to just that, noises.

Don't tell me
you're giving it a second thought.

I don't know,
there was something in his voice.

Yeah, it's called desperation.

I don't know. I think
you're brother's up to something.

I only wish I knew what it was.

And when I saw that smirk
on Alexis' face, it hit me suddenly,

I knew exactly how
to use Emily's letter.

Use it? Nut how?

Darling, you know that there's nothing
that I wouldn't tell you,

but I've gotta work this all out
for myself first.

Blake, I don't understand.

You told me you'd never do anything
to hurt Emily's memory.

No one is going to be hurt by that letter,
except my brother Nen and Alexis.

Darling,
I want you to do something for me.

I want you to get us tickets
to Alexis' ball.

Tickets for the entire family.

You can't be serious.

Oh, yes, I am. I'm deadly serious.

Well, I wanted you to know
I am leaning that way, Alexis.

Oh, yes, I will keep in touch.
Nye-bye.

- Michael.
- Hmm.

Would you mind telling me
what that was all about?

Caught in the act.

What does that mean?

Your mother and I are planning
to have a little fling.

All right, look, Amanda, the way
your father's been acting toward me,

why shouldn't I sell my share
of the Crater to Alexis

and get out of Denver and take you
back to New Orleans with me?

- No.
- Why not?

Necause you'd make things
even worse with him.

- Well, that's tough. I mean, real tough.
- Michael--

Wait, listen to me. I went to your father
and offered to work with him,

and he just threw it
right back in my face.

Michael.

[DOOR BANGS]

Ah, Ms. Deveraux,
Gary Tilden, remember?

I certainly do.

I suppose you're wondering

why I haven't returned
any of your phone calls.

I've decided
to have nothing to do with you.

Ah, well, then, I suppose I was right,
you are afraid to perform.

You're wrong.

As a matter of fact,
I'm looking forward to it.

Nut with my own company,
in my own way.

Certainly not with the people
you represent.

Ms. Deveraux,
the people I represent--

Mr. Tilden, I have checked the people
you represent very thoroughly.

They're a front.

[SCOFFS]

I know where the money
really comes from,

and I don't sing that kind of song,
Mr. Tilden.

For your information,

there's only one studio here
that can handle all your needs

and we're negotiating to buy it.

Not anymore. I have just bought it.

You're making a big mistake.

And you're going
to make my people very angry.

Take your hands off her.

Now.

Now, move it.

[CHUCKLES]

[SlGHS]

What was that all about?

Oh, he wanted an autograph and l...

Nick,
I really would rather not discuss it.

I'm just happy that you are here.

I'm here on business.

Nick.

I realise that you're very angry
about the other night,

but I told you,
I just don't fall into bed that easily.

Heh, hey, don't worry about it.
I'll survive.

Uh--

No.

[SAMMY JO CLEARS THROAT]

Are you all right?

[SlGHS]

I'm fine.

It was the same way with Danny.
Just a touch of morning sickness.

It's not morning, Sammy Jo.
It's 1 :00 in the afternoon.

That makes me kind of unique, huh?

You know,
that's my child you're carrying too.

I want you to call the doctor and find
out if there's something you can take.

I will, later.
She's probably still out to lunch.

Just try right now, okay?

- Okay.
- Thank you.

Hello, Sammy Jo.

Hello, Dr. Craig.

I was feeling a little bit woozy
a couple minutes ago

and my husband and I were wondering
if you could prescribe something.

- Prescribe something?
- Mm-hm.

No, not until I see the results
of your beta quantitative

and know for sure
if you are pregnant.

Look, doctor, l--

Sammy Jo, you came to see me
and said you were pregnant

based on a home pregnancy test.

Now, please, get yourself to the lab

and take the proper tests
this afternoon.

Then call me
and we'll set up an appointment.

All right, I will.

You will what?

Uh, she wants to check me over
tomorrow. It's nothing serious.

Your coffee's getting cold.

What did she say
about a prescription?

Oh, she just keeps going on
about how she has too many patients

Iooking for prescriptions and pills.

- Whatever.
- So in other words, she said no.

- That's right.
- That's it?

Yes. Stop making such a big deal
out of this.

I've got a good idea.

Why don't you eat your pie
and stop worrying about me.

Where you going?

I just remembered
I have to pick up something in town.

See you.

[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR]

- Yes, come in, Steven.
- I got your message, Dad.

Now, I have to leave town
for a couple of hours.

While I'm gone, will you try
and track down Dan Franklin for me?

- Dan Franklin.
- Mm-hm.

Wait a minute.

You mean the drunk who screwed
everything up for you at the trial?

Who said he was with Nen
the day your mother died?

You sure you know
what you're doing?

Yes, I know what I'm doing.
I need him.

Now, I want you to go through
every flophouse, every mission,

every hospital down on skid row,
but find the man for me.

I want something from him,
and I'm gonna get it.

- Ms. Van Heusen?
- Yes.

- I'm Nlake Carrington.
- Ha, ha.

In a whorehouse.

Now, that's got to be the surprise
of the year, even for me.

Girls, we'll finish our talk later.

Sheila, would you bring
Mr. Carrington a drink?

- That won't be necessary, thank you.
- Sit down, please.

You said on the phone you wanted
to talk to me about your brother.

Uh, yes,
and also about Caress Morell.

Oh.

You once told Caress that on the day
that my mother died in that fire,

that you knew that my brother Nen was
having an affair with a young woman.

A young woman who had married
into a prominent family.

I think that you can identify
that woman.

I told Ms. Morell, and now I'll tell you,

I know nothing about any of this.

Emily Fallmont, wasn't it?

I assume you know
that she died recently.

So?

This is a letter that she wrote to me
just before she died.

Now, if I'm to do what she asks,
see that justice is done,

I'm gonna need more
than just that letter.

Somebody to verify that she and Nen
were having an affair?

Yes.

What would be in it for me?

You mean money?

Forget it.

If you'd take money from me,
you'd take it from Nen too.

I'm supposed to do this
out of the decency of my heart?

I'm not so sure it's decent
to tarnish the name of a dead woman.

That will not happen.
I'll see to it that it doesn't.

Now, are you with me,
or am I just wasting my time here?

- Hello, darling.
- Hi.

- Any word from Steven yet?
- No, nothing.

- Where were you this afternoon?
- I drove down to Colorado Springs.

I wanted to get some answers
about some things.

I think I'll call Steven
at his apartment.

Are you ever gonna tell me
what this is all about?

I promise you that I will.

Just as soon as I get
all the pieces together.

Oh, Ms. Cochran, Nlake Carrington.
May I speak to my son, please?

Oh, I see.

Would you ask him to call me
when he comes in? Thank you.

You'll tell me as soon
as you have all the pieces together.

Yes, that's right.

Nlake, I know how
to get secrets out of you, remember?

Yes, I do remember,
and I didn't tell you not to try.

I think you just won.

[CHUCKLES]

Make sure that you have the gown
delivered to my house

no later than tomorrow at noon.

Thank you.

Krystle.

Hello, Alexis.

What are you doing here?

I've come for a fitting on my gown
for your party.

Oh, yes, that's right,
Nlake bought a few tickets.

Can he really afford it?

Obviously, he can,
and we'll be there,

which I'm sure
will give you very little pleasure.

On the contrary, what will give me
enormous pleasure, though,

is to show the two of you
how to give a really good party.

And to show you how I've redecorated
your drab bedroom.

I'll have one of the servants
take you around.

That won't be necessary. Nlake says
that it won't be long now before--

Before what?

Never mind.

If you're talking about Nlake's pathetic
threats to get the mansion back,

please remind him
that I have the deed.

He knows that.
I don't have to remind him of anything.

I think you'd better tell your husband
not to try anything to disrupt my party.

Well, you sound worried, Alexis,
but I can understand that,

knowing him,
I'm sure he has something in mind.

And what exactly
do you mean by that?

Well, we'll just have to wait and see,
won't we, Alexis?

[SlGHS]

- Who the hell's in here?
- A long-lost friend.

Ah, that... That little voice.

I know that voice.

- It's the voice of the woman I love.
- Oh, you're so cute.

Hand me my jeans.

Your wish is my command, lover.

[CHUCKLES]

So, uh, tell me, Alexis,

you were, uh,
just in the neighbourhood

and decided to drop by?

Well, actually,
I wanted to see your handsome face.

There's more. What?

I was thinking about that incredible
evening that we spent in your trailer,

and I wanted to relive
sentimental memories.

Well, I hate to spoil your memories,
Alexis,

but that night didn't take place
here at the crater,

it took place upstate
at the drilling site.

Don't quibble, lover.

As Gertrude Stein would say,

a trailer is a trailer,
but you are you are you. Heh.

So come here, hmm?

- What's the matter?
- What's the matter?

- Yes.
- I know you.

I know your kisses.

You either give everything you've got
or you use them,

and right now, Alexis,
you're using them.

Oh, that's absurd.

What do you want?

I mean,
what are you really after here?

[ALEXlS SlGHS]

- It's Nlake.
- What about him?

He's got something up his sleeve
and I've got to find out what it is.

First of all, he bought a whole block
of tickets for the ball,

and then he comes to me
and tells me

that it will be the last party
that I ever give at the mansion.

Then I bump into Krystle
and she tells me,

in that sanctimonious way of hers,
that I'm in for a big surprise.

What has this got to do with me?

Well, I thought
you could maybe help me.

I thought you might find out
what's going on.

After all, you are one of the few people
in the world that Nlake really trusts.

And if I am, do you think
that I would tell you what I knew?

No way, Alexis.

So if your little sentimental journey
is over with,

you mind if I get back to work?

All right.

Another time, another trailer.

Ny the way, you are going to come
to the ball, aren't you?

Well, I hadn't planned on it, Alexis,
but now I wouldn't miss it.

Just in case
he does have something in mind.

Well, it's your $5,000.

Oh, it might be worth it.

Hmm.

No thank you.

I'm only here for Amanda's sake,
I just want you to know that.

Whatever I do, Mr. Carrington,
in your book, seems to be wrong.

You've made that perfectly clear.

Well, I just talked to Amanda.

She wants me
to come to terms with you

because if I don't, I'd be driving
you right into Alexis' camp.

And I might sell out to Alexis.
Well, that's for me to decide.

I'm not finished with you yet,
Culhane.

How much do you want
for your interest in the Crater?

- I'll pay you double what Alexis will.
- No deal.

- Triple.
- I said, no deal.

You're not gonna get me out of Denver
or your life that easily, boss.

I hate you and I love your daughter.
It all comes out even.

Wait a minute.

All right, if you won't get out
on your own, I'll starve you out.

You can sit on your $50 million
until hell freezes over.

So I want all the operations
on the crater stopped

until I give the go-ahead.

- And when is that gonna be?
- When I say so.

When you say so?
Well, that's no answer.

DEX:
Blake, we've made commitments.

I've already moved
a lot of equipment up here.

I know that, Dex,
but I've got to stop Culhane.

He's not only become my partner
in this venture,

he's already talking to Alexis
about her buying his share.

Well, I will not tolerate that,
not from either of them.

The big man won't tolerate it.

What about my men?
The crew I put together.

How are they and their families gonna
tolerate their being thrown out of a job?

I'll get them jobs, hundreds of them.

Oh, well, those are big words.
You wanna tell me where specifically?

No, I can't do that, not right now.

DEX: Nlake,
you're going back on your word.

That's not like you.
What's happening?

I'll explain it to you
just as soon as I can.

You're double-dealing us, Nlake.

NLAKE: Damn it,
I am not double-dealing you.

I'm fighting for my life.

Hello, Dr. Craig. Ahem.

I think we'll be more comfortable
over here, Sammy Jo.

Okay.

I'm glad you took the test.

Is my baby all right?

The very first time you came in,

I could tell how excited you were
to be having a baby.

Yes, I am, very excited.

Sammy Jo, sometimes when a woman
wants her husband's child desperately,

the brain sends messages
to other parts of her body

and the body responds
by mimicking pregnancy symptoms.

I don't understand.
What's that got to do with me?

Dear, there's no easy way
for me to say this.

- You are not pregnant.
- What?

It's a false pregnancy, Sammy Jo.

That's crazy.
That's the wildest thing I've ever heard.

The lab tests showed no evidence
of true pregnancy.

Then the test is wrong.
Look, my body, everything about me,

is the same as when
I was carrying Danny.

I was pregnant then
and I'm pregnant now.

Sammy Jo, it doesn't mean that you
can't have a child. It simply means--

What it means is that
I'm going to see another doctor.

Not one that's gonna try
and mix up my life.

Well, that's your privilege, of course,
but the fact remains--

Stop using that word, the "fact."
I know what the fact is.

I'm carrying my husband's baby.
It's inside me right now.

I feel it. I know it.
I don't care what you say.

Well? Did you see the good doctor?

Yes.

Well, yes, what did she say?

- A lot.
- She gets paid a lot.

- You're healthy?
- Yes, I'm fine.

Great, and there's no problem
with the baby?

Ah! Which reminds me...

While you were gone, uh-huh,

I decided to spoil our child
six months before it's born.

His or her first gift from the old man.

What do you think?

It's adorable.

Just like you. Mm.

- Clay.
- Yes?

Yes, Mrs. Fallmont?

Tell me the truth.

Would you have married me
if there were no baby?

[CHUCKLES]

- What's the difference? There is.
- I'd like to know.

Yes. I think we probably
would have gotten married.

Maybe not so fast.

Nut hey, I don't wanna talk
about this anymore.

And I don't want my wife
getting neurotic on me, okay?

I want you to take care of yourself,
and I want you to take care of our baby

because that baby
is very important to me.

He brought us together.

Okay?

Adam, I want you to sign these.

Adam's not here, Mr. Carrington.

Well, in that case,
I'd like you to handle this.

Whatever it is, the answer's no.

I don't take orders from you anymore.
I only take orders from Adam.

I understand that's not all
you're taking from him.

Oh, I'm quite aware
of his suite at the Carlton,

of your rendezvous,
of the very long, very long lunches.

[CHUCKLES]

- Not so fast.
- Let go of me.

You had me fooled.

When you refused to tell me
what was in Nlake's personal files,

I thought you were operating
with integrity.

Nut you were just looking
for a better customer, weren't you?

Dana, would you leave us alone,
please?

Don't ever come into this office again
unless you're invited.

And as far as Dana is concerned,
I'm in love with her.

If you ever touch her again,
you'll be very, very sorry.

Is that clear?

Put your signature on these,
would you, please?

[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES]

Look, Carrington, I told your son,

you people can't touch me.

Now, you may be sore at me
for what happened at the trial,

but there's nothing you can do
about it now.

Mr. Franklin, my son also told me
that you'd stopped drinking.

You're back living with your wife,
is that right?

That's right.

And that's the way I'm gonna stay,
with my wife and sober.

Maybe. Maybe not.

What are you talking about?

Why did you stop drinking?

Because I'd finally hit bottom.

You wanted to be back
with your wife again.

You wanted to live
like a human being again.

Except there's one problem
you haven't licked,

your conscience.

You lied about me in court,

now your conscience
won't let you alone.

It keeps nagging at you, doesn't it?

What are you, God or something?

How did you know?

Necause I think that deep down
you're a decent man.

I wanna give you another chance.

Maybe your last chance
to make peace with yourself.

This is my house, Carrington,

and you weren't invited here,
so get out.

I said, get out.

[DOOR CLOSES]

That's fine,
but let Mrs. Colby check it.

Yes, that's very good, Gerard.

- Nen, have you seen Adam?
- No, I haven't.

Well, I wonder where he is?

He's my host, he's supposed to be
here and help me greet the guests.

Well, I'm sorry, Alexis,
but I'm not my nephew's keeper.

The last time I saw him
was at the office with Dana Waring.

She seems to keep him very busy.

Hmm.

Are you insinuating
that they're having an affair?

Is that what you're trying to tell me?

What office girl in the world
wouldn't wanna hook

one of the Carrington-Colby heirs?

[SlGHS]

[lN GYPSY ACCENT]
We have a party in our future.

- Heh, heh, heh.
- We have to go to it.

Let's stay here a few more minutes.

As a matter of fact,
let's stay here forever.

[lN NORMAL VOlCE]
The room-service bill

would blow our minds.

Heh, heh. We could live on
bread and water.

- With a cheeseburger once a month.
- Mm-hm.

Do you remember Tessie's Shack
in Nillings?

Uh-huh. Ha, ha.

Yes, I do.

-Nest cheeseburgers in Montana.
-Mm-hm.

I used to see you there sometimes
after school.

The place would be jammed
with kids.

I'd be sitting alone
at one end of the diner.

Then you'd come in, alone,
order something,

always at the other end.

Why didn't you ever
come over to me?

I loved you so much.

I used to pretend you loved me.

I was afraid

that even a hello from me
would ruin my fantasy.

I wish you had come over.

I must have been the loneliest kid
in Nillings.

I never believed I could belong
anywhere or with anyone.

And all the time I had you, didn't l?

Mm-hm.

I love you, Dana.

You're the first woman in my life
I don't have to put up a front for.

I don't have to smile if I feel low.
I can finally be myself.

Except for tonight at the ball,
with the cream of Denver society. Heh.

ADAM:
Oh, heh.

That's a command performance.

- Do we have to go?
- Mm-hm.

Mother is expecting me.

Nesides, I wanna show her
and everybody else how lovely you are.

And you are.

[CHATTERlNG]

Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.

I want to thank all of you
for coming tonight

and helping me
enrich Denver's future

by supporting
the Alexis Colby Foundation.

I know there's a lot more
that I could say

but this is a celebration
and I want you all to enjoy yourselves.

I can tell, Mrs. Colby,
that it's going to be a superlative party.

Oh, thank you, general.
Thank you both for coming.

Hello, Mother.

Hello, darling. Michael,
I need to have a word with you.

Can't it wait?

No, darling, it's important.

I hope that we can see each other
a little bit later. Excuse me.

What do you think she wants?

I think that's between your mother
and me. Come on.

It's a pity, Alexis.
Adam still isn't here.

You've apparently been stood up
by your co-host.

Heh. I wouldn't worry about it, Nen.

Adam's my son, he'll be here.

Cheers.

Darling,
would you fasten this for me?

BLAKE:
Mm-hm.

It's still going to work for you,
you know that, don't you?

I don't know how.
Franklin turned me down.

I tried to get through to him,
but he wouldn't understand.

He wouldn't even talk to me.

[PHONE RlNGS]

Hello?

Yes, he is. Just a minute.

It's the desk.

Yes?

All right, I'll be right down.

Who was it?

Dan Franklin.
He's down in the lobby.

He wants to talk to me.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Why don't you try the salmon.
I had it flown in from Scotland.

No thanks.

I'm glad you could come to the party,
Dex.

You made it simple, Alexis.

- What do you mean?
- I had no work to delay me.

The Crater, it was shut down
early this afternoon.

- He really closed it down?
- Mm-hm.

Everything was moving along fine

until you started talking a deal
with Culhane.

You knew how Nlake felt about him.

I really have better things to do
with my time

than worry about how Nlake feels.

Then worry about the men
you've just put out of jobs.

That should put you
in a real party mood, Alexis.

- Excuse me.
- Good evening, Dexter.

You do have a way of picking winners,
don't you?

Yes, well, I picked you,
didn't l, lover?

Heh.

[BAND PLAYlNG SOFT MUSlC]

Michael, you have been dragging
your heels long enough.

Well, I never said
I was Kelly or Astaire.

[ALEXlS CHUCKLES]

You know what I'm talking about.

Do I get to buy you out of the Crater
or not?

Why would you want to now,
with it shut down?

Well, let's just say
that I like to see Nlake

with blood in his eye
and egg on his face.

Nesides, I'm in a better
financial position than you.

That's blunt enough.

Yes or no?

Why don't we just keep
our options open for now

and keep on enjoying ourselves,
hmm?

You know what I like about you,
Michael?

MlCHAEL:
Hmm?

Your candour, amongst other things.

- Hey, let's go get some food.
- I'm not very hungry.

I am. I'll be right back.

Bye.

Well, hello, Steven.

- Hi, Steven.
- Hi.

Well, don't you remember?
We met at Chris Deegan's party.

You were in a big conversation
with Nart Fallmont.

No. No, sorry, I don't remember.

Well, there's no time like the present
to start getting acquainted.

Uh, look, there's gotta be a--

There's gotta be a quieter spot
in this house where we could talk.

I mean, uh, I'm not Nart,
but I'm not too bad a guy.

Excuse me, but I think
you'd better stop before you start.

Hey, come on,
you're not gonna play straight with me.

I'm not playing.

Period.

I saw what happened, Steven.
I know how you must feel.

You have no idea how I feel.

What the hell does he think he's doing
coming onto me like that?

This is my family's home.

Why don't we go find Clay
and get something to eat.

No. I gotta get out of here
and get some fresh air.

- I haven't seen him.
- That's great. Heh.

Hello, Jack.

How do you do?

Tell me something, Alexis,

did you enjoy coming on to Culhane
during your little minuet?

I don't come on to men.
They come on to me.

I didn't finish.

Or were you just giving your blessings
to his relationship with Amanda?

I thought you'd finished
being concerned about Amanda

a long time ago.

She's still a friend,
and she's still your daughter.

I hope we both want
what's best for her.

Culhane is not.

Really? Well, when I need your advice
about how to handle Amanda,

I'll ask for it.

Oh, Mrs. Colby, Miss Amanda would
like to see you. She's in the solarium.

Thank you, Gerard.

Mother, I'm sorry we're so late.

Well, you were obviously
unavoidably detained.

This must be Miss Waring,
from the office.

Yes, Mrs. Colby.
It's so nice to meet you.

Well, it's nice to meet you too, dear.

Darling, Nethany Anderson
has just flown in from Tennessee.

She's dying to see you.
I'm sure Miss Waring won't mind.

Excuse me.

I told you she wouldn't like me.

Let's have some champagne.

ALEXlS:
Amanda?

Darling, why did you want
to see me in here?

- To tell you to stay away from Michael.
- What?

And stop putting him in the middle
between yourself and Nlake.

Amanda, you know
what I think you ought to do?

You ought to make a clean break
with your father.

His hatred for Michael is dangerous.

Mother, please, stay out of my life.

Amanda, I'm only trying
to give you some good advice.

I won't break with my father,
and I won't lose Michael to you.

[DOOR SLAMS]

Mr. Carrington, Mrs. Carrington.
It's so good to see you.

Thank you, Gerard.

Gerard, would you be good enough
to find Mrs. Colby for me?

And my brother too.

- Yes, sir.
- Thank you.

Mrs. Carrington, Nlake.

I got about a dozen calls from my crew
after the news broke.

They don't have very nice things
to say about you.

Nick, I told you that those men
would be back at work very, very soon.

Maybe in a couple of days.

Look, we've all heard that tune before
and nobody dances to it,

especially not me.

Excuse me.

- Okay, I'll talk to you later.
- Nye, now.

Oh, Ms. Deveraux
has something on her mind.

I can see it
in those beautiful brown eyes.

I most certainly do
have something on my mind. You.

That was quite a greeting
you gave Nlake.

I had every right to be upset after what
he did to my men at the crater today.

I don't think you have the right
to speak to Nlake in that tone of voice.

Nobody tells me what to say
or how to act. Remember that.

And if you're wondering what I'm doing
at an Alexis Colby party,

even a wildcatter can afford
to contribute to charity.

[CHATTERlNG]

[SPEAKlNG lNAUDlBLY]

Well, well, well,
Mr. and Mrs. Carrington.

I'm so glad you could honour us
with your presence.

I wouldn't have missed it
for the world.

Yes, I have a feeling
it's a night to remember.

Oh, yes, it is. I planned it that way.

Well, you know the old saying,
the best laid plans...

Alexis, I want to talk to you.
You too, Nen.

[CHUCKLES]

- Now?
BLAKE: Yes.

I want to talk to you both right now,
in the library.

Or if you like, we can do it right here,
in front of all your guests.

It's your choice.

Close those doors.

All right, Nlake, what do you want?

I want you two to start packing
and to move out of this house.

What are you talking about?

You're going to give me back
Denver-Carrington

and my South China Sea oil leases.

You must be joking.

And as for you, I want you to get ready
to pay back to Dominique and me

the money that you won from us
in court with your lying testimony.

And that's right now, with no delay.

Let's leave this maniac alone
with his delusions.

Just a minute.
I have two affidavits here.

- One from Dan Franklin.
- Franklin?

The drunk who was supposed
to testify for you at the trial?

He's a recovering alcoholic now.

He swears that on the day that Mama
died in that fire that he was with me.

- Who's the other one from?
- It's signed by Cora Van Husen.

You remember that name,
don't you, Nen?

What does it say?

It says that you and Emily Fallmont
were alone together in a motel room

at the time of that fire.

She's prepared to testify
for me in court, as is Dan Franklin.

You'll need more than that.

I've got more than that.
I have a letter from Emily Fallmont.

Here, read it.

And don't bother to tear up that copy,
it's just a copy. Go on, read it aloud.

- No.
- Read it.

- I won't.
- Well, then, I'll read it for you.

"Dear Nlake. You must use this letter
to clear yourself.

Ny the time you read it,
I will have left Denver for good.

Blake, Ben and Alexis lied in court.

I was the woman with Nen Carrington
the day your mother died.

Nuck already knows the truth
and our marriage is over,

so there's no way you can hurt me,

except by not allowing me
to set matters straight."

And it's signed by her.

You'd never make that public.
You'd never destroy Emily's reputation.

You damn well better give me
what I'm asking for or I will use this.

You're bluffing, Nlake.

Was I bluffing when I threatened
to shut down operations on the crater?

Was I bluffing when I found you
cheating in our marriage

and threatened
to throw you out of the house?

Blake, wait.

Alexis.

Nen,
I am not going to go to jail again.

Then I suggest you give back
the things that I've asked for.

Your signature, returning the house
and Denver-Carrington to me.

If I sign these,

what guarantee do I have that you
won't use Emily's letter against us?

You have my word, which is worth
more than anything you've got.

And you'll get the original of this

when I have the South China Sea
oil leases returned to me.

- You don't give an inch, do you?
- Oh, yes. Yes, I give.

I'll give you one more night
in this house,

which is more than you gave me
and my family.

Oh. You can sleep
in the master bedroom tonight.

I'm having it disinfected tomorrow.
