Previously onDynasty...Hello, Daddy.

ANDERS: Kirby.You have an older brother.

You're the only one that knows
I'm not the real deal.

Is that a threat?
Maybe.

Steven, I'm pregnant.
You're going to be a father.

You're a Carrington, Jeff.

We're Carringtons.
We're here for what's ours.

I motion that we put the sale
of the company to a vote.

I'm gonna contest the sale.Well, I'm switching my vote.

Turns out, Liam's uncle has
connections in Big Oil.

I'm in love with you, Fallon.



Claudia, don't!

[coughing]

Fallon!
Culhane!

Alexis!Blake, take Fallon!

ALEXIS:
Oh, my God. Cristal!

Steven!Culhane!

♪ You should see me
in a crown... ♪

[cameras clicking]Fallon, can we get a comment?

Can we get a comment? Any more
information on the fire?

Any update on the investigation?

REPORTER: Any word on the sale
of Carrington Atlantic

and your stake in the company?

Do you consider yourself
to be part

of the Carrington family now?No.



My sister and I do not
consider ourselves Carringtons.

Hell no.

Rumors of Mr. Carrington's
mental breakdown

and drug-fueled Parisian bender
are exactly that: rumors.

♪ Tell me which one is worse

♪ Living or dying first

♪ Sleeping inside a hearse

♪ Watch me make 'em bow

♪ Your silence

♪ You should see me, see me,

♪ One by one by, one

♪ One by one by, one.

Ah, so that is what a $50
billion deal memo looks like.

FALLON: Yep. I got it
from legal this morning.

I'm meeting with Liam's uncle
today to negotiate details,

and our hope is that we can
announce the transition

at C.A.'s anniversary party.

And that is why I love you.

You talk about selling

a hundred-year-old empire
like a kid selling lemonade.

You should've seen me
sell lemonade.

[chuckles]
I bet.

Uh, before I got
understandably distracted,

I did come up here
to tell you that

your father is on his way home.

Of course.

He abandons his family while
everything's going to hell,

but when it comes
to the company, he'll be there.

You know, he's the very reason
C.A. became so toxic.

He raised us to fight
each other for it.

Mm.

I would never want
to do that to my kids.

Don't worry, I'm not pregnant.

[exhales]

Baby.

I'm proud of you.

Even if Blake isn't.

Well, he lost his opinion
when he left me

to pick up the pieces
for a month.

As if he was the only one
who lost Cristal.

NEWSWOMAN: The nationwide
manhunt continues

for Hank Sullivan,

person of interest in
Cristal Carrington's homicide.

Investigators
on the case question

whether the suspect acted alone.

Mrs. Carrington.

Guess what I have?

Your discharge papers.

What? No.

Well, you've made
a full recovery

from your smoke inhalation
two weeks ago.

I'm really not sure
why you're still here.

What if I get worse?
I can't afford a relapse.

I think you've milked
the Carrington tab long enough.

How about I send someone
to help you carry

all the flowers
that you sent yourself?

NEWSWOMAN: Last week, I spoke to
his mother, Alexis Carrington...Shh, shh.

It's my interview.

It's on. Out.
Out, out, out.

ALEXIS [over TV]:
Police think that

Cristal learned of his plan

to take out the Carrington
Atlantic shareholders.

And, well, he reacted.

Hank, if you're seeing this,
please call me.

We will get through this,
together.

I'd do it all over again
if I could save poor Celia.

You mean Cristal Flores.

Well, who is she, really?

A tortured soul
with a hard life,

a stolen identity.

But as Mother Teresa said,

"Do things for people not
because of who they are,

but because of who you are."

Whether or not you accept

you're the father, Steven,
I'm starting to show.

And with my divorce being
finalized, you know,

people might ask whose kid it
is, and I-I'm not gonna lie.

It's not fair to the baby.

It's not that
I don't believe you.

Well, now that you have
medical evidence.

[sighs]

It's just... I don't know
how to tell Sam.

After all he's been through?

Well, I am sympathetic to
Sam's loss. Don't get me wrong.

But think of it this way:
the longer you lie to him,

it's gonna be much worse
when the truth comes out.

And it will come out.

Hi.Hi.

[laughs] And I was worried
this was gonna be awkward.

Liam, I really appreciate
everything you're doing

to help broker this deal.Nah...

Despite my decision.

To not be with me.

Yes. See? It's much
less awkward now.

[chuckles]
This place is popular.

Uh, my uncle
bought it out.

He's doesn't like
to eat with other people.

There's one little hang-up.

Just a small miscommunication
I just found out about, myself.

Well, don't tell me
he's getting cold feet.

I really need this to work out.Liam.

Uncle Max.

How's my nephew? [chuckles]Good. Good to see you.

And this must be Fallon.Yeah.

The legend.[chuckles]

I'm sorry what's happened
to your family.

I'm glad I could help.

Oh, thank you. Is this
your first time to Atlanta?

Oh, no, no, no.
I have developments

up and down
the Eastern seaboard.

Imports, exports,
that sort of thing.

Oh, and this isn't the
first time I dipped a toe
into Big Oil, either.

Oh. I didn't know that.

Well, I mean, the last seller
completely screwed me over.

I'm sure Liam mentioned

that once you get
on my bad side, you'll wish

you never heard
of the Van Kirks.

Well, I'm lucky
to have Liam's help, then.

You kidding me?
He's lucky he has a wife

who's heir to an empire

I want to buy.

I'm famished.

Let's eat.

[quietly]:
Your wife?

[clasps hands]

[phone vibrating]

Hello?

HANK:
I saw your message on TV.

Uh, could you get me
a toiletries bag?

And some toiletries.

And shut that door
on the way out.

[sighs]

Finally, you idiot.

Why didn't you call me sooner?

What in the hell
happened that night?

Look, I didn't kill her.

The news said she died
of a gunshot wound.

That wasn't me.
I just torched the place.

Oh, my God. Hank.

You said to take
care of it, Alexis.

No, I said watch her and make
sure that she keeps quiet.

Okay.

You're gonna have to stay in
hiding until this blows over.

And they cannot

find out that we were
working together.

They could. I mean, I could
tell the police everything.

How we met, what our plan was.

I can even take
a DNA test to prove

I'm not your son, and that
you switched the first one.

What do you want?

My money. $5 billion.

[laughs] Where in the hell
am I gonna get that?

Okay, fine. A million.

I don't have anything.

You burnt down my home
with everything in it.

You get my money,
or I'm going to the cops.

You have 38 hours.

You mean 48.

I mean two days. Starting now.

[grunts]STEVEN: You don't think

Liam misled him
on purpose, do you?

He seemed just
as flustered as I was.

And his uncle
is such a bulldozer,

I get how it happened
in the first place.

Liam told his uncle
how we used to be married,

he latched onto that.

And now if we correct it,
we might blow the deal.

Well, we're so close to signing.

How long do you have
to pretend to be married? Again.

Through the weekend, I guess.

Or at least
until the ink is dry.

But if that's all
it takes to be free

of the company,
isn't it worth it?

What about Culhane?

I'm gonna tell him. Obviously,
I can't keep him in the dark

about something so important.

I'm not a monster.

Oh. Children,
it feels so great to be home.

Oh, whoops, I've got it.

Don't worry.

Do you need a wheelchair
after a facelift?

I mean, I'm just assuming

that's why you were in
the hospital so long.

No, Fallon.

They finally released me
and I have no place to stay.

And considering
my home burnt down,

and the suspect
is still at large,

surely you wouldn't kick
your own mother to the curb.

You're right.

Dad's on his way from the
airport. He'll do it then.

STEVEN: I'm glad
you're here.

I'm glad we're all here.

Oh. Who's been redecorating?

That's Cristal.

Well, it's not Waterford.

You mean the person?

W-What in the hell

is she doing in the foyer?

SAM:
Hey!

I saw your interview.

What was with you
smack-talking my aunt?

Steven, what is he referring to?

Nothing, Mom.
Sam, just calm down.

No, don't tell me to calm down.
Didn't you see her TV interview?

FALLON: Would you just...Yeah, I know...

[overlapping arguing]They're fighting because of you!

What is going
on out here?

No, I'm on your side.
I'm just saying...
Quiet!

[arguing continues]Gentlemen, please!

No, don't talk
to your mother like that!

Dad?

Blake. Wait.

SAM: No.[Fallon gasps]

Oops.

FALLON: Well, if you want me to,
I can call it off.

Why? I already survived
your fake husband once.

I really don't deserve you.

I know. Look, it's just...[chuckles]

...the one weekend. Right?

One party? I'd rather
suffer through that

than another year of you
working at C.A.

So just close the deal,

and we can move on
with our lives.But even if we're on board

with this whole
mock marriage thing,

there's my dad
and his Joaquin Phoenix beard.

[chuckles]And I'm not sure whether
to be worried about him

or worried that he's back
to sabotage the deal.

I wouldn't put
anything past him.

But you, you need to
follow your instincts.

Trust yourself.

[music stops]Everybody out!

[sighs]

Those pills
would be the reason

the manager called me.

I swear, they're not mine.

A friend of mine got
them from housekeeping,

so if anything, you
should be having a word

with management about
their drug-addicted staff.

That's enough, Kirby.

Housekeeping actually is
kind of crap, though.

You should complain.

This is hardly laying low.

There are only
so many hotels in this city.

There's always the Manor.

Can't hide me forever, Daddy.

No. Just until
they arrest a suspect.

Remember, the last time

the Carringtons saw you,

you were trying to light
their house on fire.

How many times have I told you?
Fallon framed me.

That little bitch
ruined my life.

You know what? Not the point.

I came here to move on

because I thought
that's what you wanted me to do.

But the longer I'm here,

the more it seems like you're
not protecting me from them.

You're protecting them from me.

Uh, Blake is prepping
for an event this weekend.

As soon as the time is right,
I will speak to him

about you moving to the Manor.

[door opens]

[sighs][snoring softly]

Welcome back.

Did you not go
to bed last night?

I was up working.Well, that's what happens

when you turn your back
on reality for a month.

What Fallon means to say
is that we missed you.

I, for one,

think a little liquor

is necessary
at times like these.

You mean morning?

Blake, I-I'm not gonna beat
around the bush.

I have nowhere to go.
No money.

Surely the stables
were insured.

And technically,
the deed is in my name.

Perhaps you'd consider

giving me

the insurance money.

You know,
to compensate for my loss.

Yourloss?

Are you hearing yourself?

That seems fair.

Considering it's
your property.

STEVEN:
Oh.

I thought this meeting
was just us, Dad.

It's a family meeting.

What is it you wanted
to tell me?

Well, it's just, uh...

there's been
a few complications.

Like the lawsuits from the fire.

Wedding guests
trying to take advantage.

I'll take care of the lawsuits
with my lawyers. Anything else?

No. I mean...

pretty much.

I may have gotten
someone pregnant.

You what?A woman?

Yes, a woman.

Before I was committed to Sam.

Look, the point is,

surely you knocked someone up
pre- or post-Mom.

What's fair
in this situation,

child support-wise?

Does Sam know about it?

No.

With everything he's going
through... I'm working on it.

This is our estate planner.

Contact her

about setting up a trust.

But if I were you,

I would tell Sam first.

Speaking of poor decisions,

what do you know
about Max Van Kirk?

I'm sure you're still pissed
about me selling,

but it's a foregone conclusion.

What I need you to do
is get on board.

Do a little song and dance
for Max at the party,

who-- one slight hitch--

still thinks
I'm married to Liam.

Fallon, did you
do any research

on this family that you're
about to get into bed with?

Whoever they are, they couldn't
be crazier than mine.

Sir, there's a woman here
to see you.

Who is it?

Well, I don't know how
to tell you this.

It's Cristal Flores.

The license checks out.I told you.

I'm the real Cristal Flores.

Your late wife's real name
was Celia Machado.

Please. Clearly,
she saw Mother's interview.

The one where she outed
Cristal as a criminal?

In my defense, I was on Ambien.

Look, I'm sorry,
but my life has been nothing

but misery
since my identity was stolen.

SAM:
How many years ago was that?

I don't know.
Uh, it's been so long.

Ten, maybe 12 years?

And where were you
when it happened?

All I know is I was in Florida,
minding my business...

My aunt didn't steal
your identity.

She got it from a woman
in a hospital in Mexico.

But nice try.

Perra.

Maybe that's what she told you.

But I'm the victim here.

Anders, cut her a check.

That's not a good precedent
to set, sir.

Give a gold digger
a cookie...

$500,000

so we can be
done with this.

Oh, my God. You're so...Just take the check and go.

Thank you so much.
You're doing the right thing.

You want to turn some rando
into a lottery winner, go ahead.

Just stay inside. Uncle Max

will be here soon, and I
don't want you two meeting

until you cut that cat
off your face.

MAX:
Does my nephew

often keep you waiting?FALLON: Oh!

I'm sure he'll be here
any minute.

And your father,
is he here?

Uh, he's still a little
jet-lagged after his sabbatical.

But you'll get to meet
him at the party, though.

Best to let his charms
sink in over cocktails.

Hey.Hey.

This is Liam's Uncle Max.

Culhane is an old friend
who's just staying with us

for a while.Michael Culhane.

A friend of hers
is family to me.

Uncle Max.Liam.

Culhane.

Yep.

Hi.

You kidding me? Is that it?

I mean, I've seen

you hug your Aunt Mora
with more affection. Come on.

You're newlyweds.

Oh, great. Now you kiss her
like she's your mother.

Can you give her a
real kiss, please?

Come on.

Now, that's more like it.

And trust me, you will have

plenty of time to cultivate

a sex-starved marriage.
Just ask my wife.

[chuckles] Michael.

Will you be
at the celebration tomorrow?

I was, but, uh...

...something came up.

Ooh.

It's hot.

Guess I'll be seeing
you two lovebirds later.

FALLON:
I'm so sorry, Michael.

I never should have kissed Liam
like that.

The last thing I want
is for this to hurt you.

Whatever you need to do
is cool with me.

LIAM:
That's right, Fallon.

Like Michael said,

whatever you need
is totally cool.

[gasps]

What are you doing awake?

Drowning my sorrows
in chamomile.

So you haven't
told Sam yet?

I tried. Sort of.

He's not in a good place
right now,

and I'm scared
that more bad news

might totally break him.

What about you?Let's just say

Culhane may be down
with the marriage charade,

but my subconscious isn't.

Well, like you said,
it's just till the ink's dry.

Actually, it's six months.

What?Liam's creepy Uncle Max wants me

to stay on
as a transition consultant.

But Culhane and I have talked
about going to New York,

starting a real life together.

And I'm scared that if I'm stuck
in this lie for six months,

then it might...

confuse my true feelings.

I would suggest getting
in bed with someone else.

Business bed.

What about that Russian oligarch
that made the first offer?

I know it means getting in touch

with someone
you'd rather not see, but...

what else is family for?

[knock at door][dog whines]

[door opens, closes]

Good morning, sir.

We have a slight issue

at the front gate.

Get out of here.I warned you
that handing out that check

to the Floridian
Cristal Flores

was setting
a dangerous precedent.

Go home.They're all claiming to be
Cristal or relatives thereof.

And they, too, would like to be
compensated for their trouble.

We're in mourning.

My aunt got murdered,

and you show up here
looking for handouts?

You heartless, greedy liars.

Your aunt used a fake
identity to get ahead.

She was the real
gold digger.

What did you say?Hey, hey.

That's enough.

Pay them what they want.
Get them out of here.

PAPARAZZO:
If Mrs. Carrington

was a fraud,
what does that make her nephew?

Just another illegal,

scamming hardworking
Americans for money?

Are you serious?

You're a pap.

You're a literal leech,
you son of a bitch.

That's what they do.

He's just trying to get
a reaction out of you.

Wake up, Carrington.
You got played by your wife,

and now your son's being
played by this idiot.

You didn't need to jump in
and defend me like that.

It just kills me,
you know?

Seeing all those women
trying to score a payday

off Cristal's death.

Cristal deserves better
than that.

She certainly deserved better
than me.

Things might not have been great
at the end

between the two of you,
but I know you loved her.

And she loved you.

At one point she did.

Guess I'll go get ready
for the party.

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, it's just bruised.

No, I mean you.

Are you okay?

My own kids
didn't even ask me that.

I guess it goes with the
territory of being a father.

Kids don't
appreciate

their parents until they
become one themselves.

Or until they lose one.

[cheers and applause]

Wow, that was amazing.

Just don't ask me
to do the Charleston.

Noted.

So what's your favorite drink?
In case my uncle inquires.

You don't remember?

You Carringtons know
how to throw a party.

Listen, if this is typical
with Carrington Atlantic,

we might have to find you
a permanent position

as party planner and performer.

[laughter]

I was on the CEO track,

but it's nice to know
I have a backup.

Uh, Liam, why don't you

show your Uncle Max
where the bar is?

Let's do it.

Southside, extra mint?

Aw. You must be
Nikolai Dimitrov.

A pleasure, Ms. Carrington.

I had no idea birds were
big in the roaring twenties.

Mm. And I found out on
the ride over it talks... a lot.

I look forward
to discussing a potential deal

for our companies.

Yes. Well, I actually
have a draft...

After a cocktail, of course.Of course.

[squawks]
Of course.

Are you sure about this?

The numbers Nikolai was
throwing around seem like less

than the Van Kirk deal.

Well, that offer is not
without caveats.

I mean,
it's practically quicksand.

Monica and I just want the sale
to go through.

[sighs]



[quiet, indistinct chatter]

Mrs. Daniels.

I didn't know
you were here tonight.

Well, I never miss
a good party,

and I was filling Sam in
on my news.
Mm.

I see.
Uh, what news is that?

Hello? The woman's
having a baby, Steven.

[Melissa laughs]SAM:
He's not the most observant,

but he sure is handsome.

Yes.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

I got to go hit
the dessert table.

Why can't I be eating for two?

Aw. [laughs]

What are you doing
talking to Sam?

Well, somebody should
be talking to him.

You're lucky he still thinks
I'm together with Paul.

I told you, Sam is in
a bad place right now...

Yes, and you just
forced me to lie to him,

which I'm not gonna do again.

Listen, Nik,
surely you know

we could get a higher
offer elsewhere.

If you could get a better deal,
I wouldn't be here, would I?

You're hungrier
than my little Rocky.

Hmm. I hope you
mean your parrot.

Hmm.
[laughs]

Obviously, it's not
all about money.

I want to make sure C.A. finds
a home that's a good fit.

And Olekov Corp is just that.

Only one condition.

The CEO remains
with the company for...

one year.

I'd consider three months.

I was referring to your father.

[squawks]

I'd like to think
anything is possible.

What fresh
hell is this?!

You have no business
being in Fallon's bedroom.

I got lost.

What about you? Did you talk
to Blake about me staying?

Mr. Carrington
denied my request.

You didn't even
ask him, did you?

[scoffs] Once again,
you choose this family over me.

I'm doing this to
protect you, Kirby.

With your history, and
the arson investigation...

I had nothing to do
with that fire,

back then or last month!

You're the only one
who suspects me.

My own father
doesn't even trust me.

You've never given me reason to!

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.
The reason

I sent you away was because

I thought you would be
better off in Australia

with your mother.

I'm sorry. I...

I still think
that's the case.

[phone chiming]

This is Alexis.

Hello?

ALEXIS [recorded]:
No, I said watch her

and make sure
that she keeps quiet!

They cannot find out
that we were working together.

[phone beeps]

They cannot find out
that we were working together.

Great party.

You set me up
to say those things.

You have some nerve
showing up here!

What if somebody sees you?

Where's my money?

I don't have it.

Not even close.

I'll give you
three more days,

and then I'm going
to the cops with it.

[groans softly]
Understood?

Mm.

[gasps]

[cork pops]

[cheering]

Welcome back
to the land of the living.

Happy anniversary.

I know how much this
company meant to you, Dad,

and I was just thinking about
what a value you bring to C.A.

Were you now?Of course, which is why

I think you should
consider staying on.

Is that Nikolai Dimitrov?

Good. You know him.

That's actually what I wanted
to talk to you about.

Daddy?

Hey, Fallon,
can I steal you?

Everything okay?

Who's the Russian dude
you were talking to?

No one important.

The bird and the bling
would imply otherwise.

Look, Liam, you should know

that we are fielding other
offers for the company.

What?

Uncle Max is ready to sign.

Well, I'm sorry.
It's just business.

He's paying
above market value

because of us.

And this ridiculous
newlywed game?

You're not my husband, Liam.

You're not even
my boyfriend,

and thank God,
because I have one

who I'm in love with.

Can I tell you
what I think is going on here?

I saw the way you looked
at me earlier...

when you were singing.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

And that kiss yesterday.

I felt it, and so did you.

I think the only reason

you're looking
for another offer is because

you don't trust yourself
around me,

because you know
you made the wrong decision.

Don't flatter yourself.

Why take a lesser deal then?

I mean, the Fallon I know

is all about the deal.

So why back out now?

Because...

Because I need to
go get some air.

Nikolai Dimitrov.

Carrington.

Still palling around
with that pea-brain?

I'm talking to the bird,
of course.

Oh, you must miss him.

Do you still have the dog,
or did you lose that

in a poker game, as well?

Oh, I didn't lose Rocky.

He was stolen from me...
by a cheat.

Like how your wife cheated
on you with me?

Ex-wife.

Now why don't you take that
disease-infested pet of yours

and get the hell out
of my house?

Well, I can't leave.

I've come to buy your company
out from underneath you.

Oh, too late.

We're selling to the Van Kirks.

Oh, didn't you know?

Well, Fallon changed her mind
and agreed to sell to me.

And, uh, who told
you that? The bird?

Don't worry.
She made a good deal.

You stay with the company
for one year.

To be my bitch.

[laughs][squawks]: My bitch.

Blake, I need
to talk to you.

It's about the insur...[shushing] Wait.

Let me guess.
You need money.

Well...You should have
a T-shirt made.

Dad, did you know
Mrs. Daniels is here?

You got Senator Daniels' wife
pregnant?

They're divorcing,
but I-- Yeah.

Well, did you at least man up

and tell Sam the truth
like I told you to?

Look, I just need you
to get rid of her. Now.

You are not the son I raised.

BLAKE:
Did you offer me up

on a platter to
Nikolai Dimitrov?

I...No. I am not letting

my family's company fall

into the hands
of that Russian rat.

Well, technically,
you have no say in the matter.

You were outvoted.

You and I both know

that Nikolai doesn't have
the resources

to match the Van Kirks' offer.

So, how'd you screw this one up?

You have no idea

what I have been through
the last month.

While you were off
God knows where

in some sort of childish
fugue state,

I had to be the adult
around here,

holding this family together.

Yeah, and I needed
to figure things out.

Well, I have figured things out.

And for the first time
in my life, I am actually happy.

And in love, with Culhane,
by the way.

And I want out of C.A.

It has always been
your company, not mine.

And if you care about me
at all, you will do this
one thing for me.

This one thing? Are you serious?

I've spent my life
doing things for you,

not that you would notice.

You have never done
anything that hasn't

helped Blake Carrington!

Don't you raise
your voice to me.

I am still your father.

Then act like one!

[microphone feedback]

Greetings, everyone.

Can you believe it?

100 years.

[applause]

Excuse me.You know, this company

has always been
like family to me,

which is why
it was so comforting

when so many of you reached out

to see how I was doing
after the passing of my wife.

Thank you.

Yeah, I also want to thank
my son-in-law Sam.

He is a good person
with a kind heart,

and his aunt would be very proud
of him. Thank you.

[applause]

Sometimes, I think that
he's too good for this family.

[laughter]After all,

not everyone would choose a
husband with a baby on the way.

[people murmuring]

And, Steven, maybe now
you'll appreciate

all the things I've done
for you as a father.

Am I right, folks?

[soft laughter]

I also want to thank
my lovely daughter Fallon,

for keeping the company running
while I was gone.

You see, I was, uh,
visiting all the places

that my late wife and I
wanted to travel to,

where I set up charitable
foundations in her name.

While I was gone,
Fallon finally realized,

after all these years,
what's most important.

Yeah, she is in love.

Well, Fallon,
you reap what you sow.

Couldn't make me happier

to announce
that we are selling C.A.

to her husband's family,

the Van Kirks.

[applause]

Two family dynasties
merging into one.

But all good things
must come to an end.[glass shatters]

And that includes
my time with the company.

That's right. 23 skidoo.

I'm getting the hell out.

Because the next chapter
of my life is gonna be about me.

Blake time.

[laughter]Let me tell you something.

I intend to spend every dime
I have before they put me

in the ground, 'cause
you can't take it with you,

and God knows, my spoiled
children don't need any more.

So, happy anniversary, everyone.

Bite me.

So, congratulations?

The silence is
killing me here.

Can you at least yell at me
or something?

It's not
that I'm not pissed.

I am.

But I can't help
but feel like maybe...

this baby is
exactly what I need.

Wait, what?

Pull me out
of this dark place.

My aunt said the woman
that gave her her identity,

the real Cristal she met
at the hospital, told her that

new life blooms from death.

It just feels
like a sign.

Maybe this baby needs us
to be... his parents,

to help raise him.

Like I needed Cristal
to help raise me.

I want to do this.

With you.

You're unbelievable, Sam.

I'm gonna call Melissa.

[chuckles softly]

[sighs]

I'll tell you
what's unbelievable.

The fact that a
pre-menopausal woman

got knocked up by a gay
man she slept with once.

What do you want?

FALLON: Max found out I was
entertaining another offer,

and now he needs
more time to assess.

Wants me to meet with
the other shareholders.

So I'm stuck in this nightmare
with Liam for even longer now,

which I know you hate,
whether or not you admit it.

I just don't want to lose you.Hey, hey, hey.

Hey, hey, hey.What?

Relax.

Everything's
gonna be okay.

All right?

I promise.

What's going on?

I, uh...

[sighs]

Look, I've asked politely
and repeatedly.

I need money.

To live.

So, being the thirsty whore
that you are,

you thought you'd come up here

How dare you call me that.

How dare you come
into this room.

This is my wife's room.

Her room?

I'm the one
who picked this wallpaper,

that bed, that...

You have no respect for her.

She's dead, Blake.

And I'm not.

But I'm still here.

Do you know how it feels

to know that you wish that I was
the one that died in that fire

instead of her?That is not true.

You're still the mother
of my children.

Even if the only thing
you ever loved was the money.

That is the only way that you
knew how to show your love.

That's how you
cared for us.

You'd just throw money
at all your little problems.

You know what, you're right.

That's exactly what I do.[sighs]



Here.

Take it.
Just take it. Take it.

Blake, stop!

What are you doing?

This is what you came here for,
isn't it?

It was never about this.

Well, what do you want, hmm,

Alexis?

What do you really want?
