1
00:00:05,092 --> 00:00:07,659
Previously on Dynasty... First, you stole my job at
2
00:00:07,703 --> 00:00:10,053
Flores Incorparado, now you're
cutting me off completely?
3
00:00:10,097 --> 00:00:12,142
Perhaps, if someone
from the board
4
00:00:12,186 --> 00:00:14,971
were to step in as acting CEO,
just while you recover,
5
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:17,408
to show stability
on Wall Street.
6
00:00:17,452 --> 00:00:18,801
I'm dropping out of the race.
7
00:00:18,844 --> 00:00:20,150
You'll be able to get
an even better deal
8
00:00:20,194 --> 00:00:22,065
from that
lieutenant governor.
9
00:00:22,109 --> 00:00:24,372
Why are you so hell-bent on
trying to pin this murder on me?
10
00:00:24,415 --> 00:00:25,982
You're the one
with the motive.
11
00:00:26,026 --> 00:00:27,636
I've just seen a drone
flying by,
12
00:00:27,679 --> 00:00:29,203
and it looked like
it was recording.
13
00:00:29,246 --> 00:00:30,508
This seat taken?
14
00:00:30,552 --> 00:00:31,640
You remind me of someone
I used to know.
15
00:00:33,424 --> 00:00:35,774
You're probably thinking
I should take it easy, but
16
00:00:35,818 --> 00:00:38,255
since today is my first day
back at work,
17
00:00:38,299 --> 00:00:40,301
and tomorrow night
is the Carrington Gala,
18
00:00:40,344 --> 00:00:43,086
your girl's coming in
guns a-blazing.
19
00:00:43,130 --> 00:00:44,305
- Oh.
- Oh!
20
00:00:44,348 --> 00:00:46,394
I'm so sorry.
Are you okay?
21
00:00:46,437 --> 00:00:48,135
- I'm fine.
- I-I-I just didn't think
22
00:00:48,178 --> 00:00:49,614
that you
were gonna...
23
00:00:49,658 --> 00:00:51,921
Liam, Liam, relax, okay?
24
00:00:51,964 --> 00:00:53,923
The infection is gone.
It's been a week.
25
00:00:53,966 --> 00:00:56,099
You're not gonna bump me
- back into a coma.
- I-I-I just want to make sure
26
00:00:56,143 --> 00:00:59,015
that you're not
- pushing it too hard.
- I get it.
27
00:00:59,059 --> 00:01:02,018
You're concerned
and being weirdly polite,
28
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:03,802
- which is super nice, but weird.
- I just,
29
00:01:03,846 --> 00:01:06,501
I wasn't looking, and I turned
right into you, and I know,
30
00:01:06,544 --> 00:01:09,286
which probably shouldn't
happen in a room this big.
31
00:01:09,330 --> 00:01:11,636
Yeah, the room is big.
32
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:15,118
Big enough for that giant
elephant to fit inside of it.
33
00:01:15,988 --> 00:01:17,381
Metaphorical.
34
00:01:17,425 --> 00:01:20,210
And I'm thinking I should
address it, so...
35
00:01:20,254 --> 00:01:23,213
we haven't had sex since
I got out of the hospital.
36
00:01:23,257 --> 00:01:25,215
Oh...
37
00:01:25,259 --> 00:01:26,825
- that elephant.
- I mean,
38
00:01:26,869 --> 00:01:29,393
I feel like that's normal
following a coma,
39
00:01:29,437 --> 00:01:31,134
which followed
a gunshot wound, right?
40
00:01:31,178 --> 00:01:33,267
I haven't read
the literature
41
00:01:33,310 --> 00:01:35,182
on this exact scenario,
42
00:01:35,225 --> 00:01:37,140
but, yeah, I'm sure
it's common.
43
00:01:37,184 --> 00:01:38,620
You've been through a lot.
It might take time.
44
00:01:38,663 --> 00:01:41,275
Well, we've been
through a lot.
45
00:01:41,318 --> 00:01:43,407
Yes, and we
46
00:01:43,451 --> 00:01:45,279
have nothing to worry about.
47
00:01:45,322 --> 00:01:47,455
Well, good.
Then I won't worry.
48
00:01:47,498 --> 00:01:49,848
Good. Me neither.
49
00:01:49,892 --> 00:01:53,635
Great, so we're both
- unworried then?
- Mm-hmm.
50
00:01:53,678 --> 00:01:56,159
Okay. I'm gonna
go see my baby.
51
00:01:57,987 --> 00:01:58,944
My company.
52
00:01:58,988 --> 00:02:01,295
Oh.
53
00:02:01,338 --> 00:02:03,427
Bye.
54
00:02:03,471 --> 00:02:04,863
I'm dropping out of the race
55
00:02:04,907 --> 00:02:08,519
for senator, and even though
I'm ahead in the polls,
56
00:02:08,563 --> 00:02:11,218
I'm a man of my word.
57
00:02:11,261 --> 00:02:13,045
I only want what we agreed to.
58
00:02:13,089 --> 00:02:15,047
I get my land
for the airport
59
00:02:15,091 --> 00:02:17,267
and concessions
for Clarke County.
60
00:02:17,311 --> 00:02:20,096
You and the governor
get Cavendish for senator.
61
00:02:20,140 --> 00:02:23,360
Yes, I remember that deal
being on the table.
62
00:02:23,404 --> 00:02:26,450
Here's the thing,
it's now off the table.
63
00:02:27,930 --> 00:02:28,887
I'm sorry.
64
00:02:28,931 --> 00:02:30,976
I'm-I'm not following.
65
00:02:31,020 --> 00:02:32,674
I'm happy to spell it
out for you.
66
00:02:32,717 --> 00:02:34,676
Our polling shows
your lead slipping.
67
00:02:34,719 --> 00:02:37,505
You got a "shot daughter" bump,
but unless
68
00:02:37,548 --> 00:02:38,810
she gets shot again,
that bump
69
00:02:38,854 --> 00:02:40,247
will be gone by Election Day,
70
00:02:40,290 --> 00:02:41,509
and since we're confident
Cavendish will now win,
71
00:02:41,552 --> 00:02:44,425
there's no need
to make a deal with you.
72
00:02:45,730 --> 00:02:47,950
I respect the
hardball approach.
73
00:02:47,993 --> 00:02:50,648
I basically
invented it myself.
74
00:02:50,692 --> 00:02:53,216
My polling tells
a different story,
75
00:02:53,260 --> 00:02:55,566
but I am willing
to amend our deal.
76
00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:57,394
Amend what deal?
77
00:02:57,438 --> 00:02:59,222
Are we negotiating or not?
78
00:02:59,266 --> 00:03:02,094
I'm gonna go with "not," but
79
00:03:02,138 --> 00:03:04,401
have a good day.
80
00:03:05,576 --> 00:03:07,796
The thought of spending decades
in this hellhole
81
00:03:07,839 --> 00:03:09,145
is aging me by the minute.
82
00:03:09,189 --> 00:03:10,494
If I don't get out
83
00:03:10,538 --> 00:03:12,061
of here soon,
I am going to lose my mind
84
00:03:12,104 --> 00:03:13,062
and my natural glow.
85
00:03:13,105 --> 00:03:14,455
Okay, well, I have some news
86
00:03:14,498 --> 00:03:16,283
- that might cheer you up.
- You're busting me out?
87
00:03:16,326 --> 00:03:19,242
Or are you and I trading places,
like a Parent Trap deal?
88
00:03:19,286 --> 00:03:21,113
I'm not busting you out,
89
00:03:21,157 --> 00:03:22,724
but I was at the penthouse
the other night,
90
00:03:22,767 --> 00:03:26,075
and I saw a drone
fly past the balcony.
91
00:03:26,118 --> 00:03:28,904
How does you seeing a UFO
92
00:03:28,947 --> 00:03:30,427
help get me out of prison?
93
00:03:30,471 --> 00:03:33,169
It was a drone,
and it had a camera attached.
94
00:03:33,213 --> 00:03:34,910
Apparently,
it's been flying by
95
00:03:34,953 --> 00:03:36,390
every night
for the past few weeks.
96
00:03:36,433 --> 00:03:38,087
So, if the drone
somehow recorded footage
97
00:03:38,130 --> 00:03:39,610
of Bobby Larson's murder,
98
00:03:39,654 --> 00:03:41,221
even in the background,
99
00:03:41,264 --> 00:03:42,483
it could tell us
what happened that night.
100
00:03:42,526 --> 00:03:44,963
Okay, so how does one
retrieve a drone?
101
00:03:45,007 --> 00:03:46,095
Call the drone police?
102
00:03:46,138 --> 00:03:48,140
No. Whoever owns it lives
103
00:03:48,184 --> 00:03:49,707
in the building across
the street, so I just
104
00:03:49,751 --> 00:03:51,579
have to work out
where it flies back to.
105
00:03:51,622 --> 00:03:53,363
Well...
106
00:03:53,407 --> 00:03:54,886
this is almost as good
as switching places.
107
00:03:54,930 --> 00:03:57,324
You shouldn't be sitting here
chatting with me.
108
00:03:57,367 --> 00:03:59,413
You need to catch
a drone. Guard!
109
00:03:59,456 --> 00:04:02,677
- Chop, chop.
- Oh, my God.
110
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,113
I've got big news to share.
111
00:04:04,156 --> 00:04:05,984
- Ooh, I love big news.
- Same.
112
00:04:06,028 --> 00:04:07,812
Go big or go home.
113
00:04:07,856 --> 00:04:10,946
Oh, could you please not lick
the jelly off of your fingers
114
00:04:10,989 --> 00:04:12,077
in front of me?
115
00:04:12,121 --> 00:04:13,818
It's unsanitary and disgusting.
116
00:04:13,862 --> 00:04:15,690
A, it's jam,
117
00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:17,953
which is delicious on anything,
especially a finger.
118
00:04:17,996 --> 00:04:21,957
And B, I hope your news
is better than your attitude.
119
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,090
Okay. I am getting married.
120
00:04:25,134 --> 00:04:27,049
- What?
- To who?
121
00:04:27,092 --> 00:04:30,444
Whom. And no idea, yet.
122
00:04:30,487 --> 00:04:34,099
Okay, between the jam thing and
this, you sound a little insane.
123
00:04:34,143 --> 00:04:35,449
I was just with my mother,
124
00:04:35,492 --> 00:04:36,928
who was getting on my case
about dating,
125
00:04:36,972 --> 00:04:38,147
when I had
an epiphany.
126
00:04:38,190 --> 00:04:40,149
I'm over being alone
127
00:04:40,192 --> 00:04:42,934
and chasing women
and then running away.
128
00:04:42,978 --> 00:04:45,067
That very mature of you,
Michael Culhane. I'm impressed.
129
00:04:45,110 --> 00:04:48,331
Yeah, I'm ready for the
"real love" phase of my life.
130
00:04:48,375 --> 00:04:50,464
I want to meet my partner.
My "one."
131
00:04:50,507 --> 00:04:52,727
I feel like my baby brother
is finally growing up.
132
00:04:52,770 --> 00:04:54,468
I'm older than you.
133
00:04:54,511 --> 00:04:57,645
Whatever. Point is, Kirby and I
are more than happy to help you
134
00:04:57,688 --> 00:04:59,299
- find your soul mate.
- Absolutely.
135
00:04:59,342 --> 00:05:01,475
I don't remember asking you
- for help.
- Well,
136
00:05:01,518 --> 00:05:04,739
true friends can hear a call for
help even when it's unspoken.
137
00:05:04,782 --> 00:05:07,132
You're welcome.
138
00:05:07,176 --> 00:05:09,047
Definitely
have to redecorate.
139
00:05:09,091 --> 00:05:11,398
I need a new vibe in here.
Starting with that couch.
140
00:05:11,441 --> 00:05:14,270
Can we get on that
immediately, please, um... Betty.
141
00:05:14,314 --> 00:05:17,447
- Ms. Carrington.
- Betty. And you
142
00:05:17,491 --> 00:05:19,971
have a very different vibe,
which is super comforting
143
00:05:20,015 --> 00:05:21,408
to me. Ooh!
144
00:05:21,451 --> 00:05:24,715
I can already feel
the corporate warfare racing
145
00:05:24,759 --> 00:05:26,064
through my veins,
and, God,
146
00:05:26,108 --> 00:05:27,588
- do I love it.
- Right.
147
00:05:27,631 --> 00:05:29,590
Uh, so you have some FSN business
148
00:05:29,633 --> 00:05:30,765
that needs
your attention.
149
00:05:30,808 --> 00:05:32,419
Yes. New talent negotiations.
150
00:05:32,462 --> 00:05:34,116
Start rolling calls
with the lawyers
151
00:05:34,159 --> 00:05:35,639
and let the battles begin.
152
00:05:35,683 --> 00:05:36,988
I'm sure I'll tire
153
00:05:37,032 --> 00:05:38,250
of the military
metaphors eventually,
154
00:05:38,294 --> 00:05:39,774
but for now,
let's just roll with it.
155
00:05:39,817 --> 00:05:41,732
- Aye-aye.
- Ah, there you go.
156
00:05:41,776 --> 00:05:42,777
Ellen!
157
00:05:42,820 --> 00:05:45,083
Wow. First, the hospital,
158
00:05:45,127 --> 00:05:46,737
now the office. I am touched
159
00:05:46,781 --> 00:05:48,609
that a board memberhas come
160
00:05:48,652 --> 00:05:51,002
to welcome me back,
even without a muffin basket.
161
00:05:51,046 --> 00:05:53,396
I didn't bring muffins,
and, unfortunately,
162
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,355
I'm not here
to welcome you back, Fallon.
163
00:05:55,398 --> 00:05:56,530
You need to leave.
164
00:05:56,573 --> 00:05:58,227
- I'm sorry?
- So am I,
165
00:05:58,270 --> 00:06:00,795
but it was in the email
you clearly never read.
166
00:06:00,838 --> 00:06:02,710
Well, yeah,
I get a lot of emails.
167
00:06:02,753 --> 00:06:05,800
Our insurance carrier
is forbidding you
168
00:06:05,843 --> 00:06:09,151
from returning to work until you
can pass all health protocols.
169
00:06:09,194 --> 00:06:12,154
- You're a liability.
- A liability?
170
00:06:12,197 --> 00:06:14,591
My doctor said that I am fine,
171
00:06:14,635 --> 00:06:16,854
and it's Fallon Unlimited,
172
00:06:16,898 --> 00:06:19,379
not "Board Members Unlimited."
173
00:06:19,422 --> 00:06:20,989
I thought that this
would be an issue.
174
00:06:21,032 --> 00:06:23,948
You're now on a mandatory
medical leave.
175
00:06:23,992 --> 00:06:26,081
You are legally forbidden
from conducting
176
00:06:26,124 --> 00:06:27,691
company business.
177
00:06:27,735 --> 00:06:29,301
Well, you can
force me to leave,
178
00:06:29,345 --> 00:06:31,434
but you can't stop me
from working at home.
179
00:06:31,478 --> 00:06:33,218
We're shutting down
your business email,
180
00:06:33,262 --> 00:06:34,785
phone and access.
And if you're caught
181
00:06:34,829 --> 00:06:36,918
breaking any rules,
182
00:06:36,961 --> 00:06:39,834
we'll take action
to remove you as CEO.
183
00:06:39,877 --> 00:06:42,314
Well, then I am
going to call
184
00:06:42,358 --> 00:06:44,142
our insurance company
right now
185
00:06:44,186 --> 00:06:46,014
- and file an appeal.
- Appeal?
186
00:06:46,057 --> 00:06:47,407
Off the premises.
187
00:06:47,450 --> 00:06:48,451
Please.
188
00:06:48,495 --> 00:06:49,800
Hey!
189
00:06:49,844 --> 00:06:52,150
Whoa. Take it easy.
I'm a liability, remember?
190
00:06:52,194 --> 00:06:53,891
Hey, Ellen, this is not over.
191
00:06:53,935 --> 00:06:57,199
You may have won the battle,
but you will not win the war.
192
00:06:58,940 --> 00:07:00,507
Killing it, Betty.
193
00:07:26,054 --> 00:07:27,751
This is my fault.
194
00:07:27,795 --> 00:07:29,840
If I had just let you drop out
when you wanted,
195
00:07:29,884 --> 00:07:31,755
the land for the airfield
would be yours.
196
00:07:31,799 --> 00:07:34,715
Honey, it's not your fault
that Lipnicki's an ass.
197
00:07:34,758 --> 00:07:37,500
He blindsided me. I'm still
dropping out of the race.
198
00:07:37,544 --> 00:07:39,633
Then why are we looking
at this map at all?
199
00:07:39,676 --> 00:07:41,417
Oh, I'm building that airfield.
200
00:07:41,461 --> 00:07:43,550
I just have to find
another way to get my land.
201
00:07:43,593 --> 00:07:44,899
So, you're giving up
on the deal?
202
00:07:44,942 --> 00:07:46,117
Honey, it's dead.
203
00:07:46,161 --> 00:07:48,946
That deal isn't dead
until we say it is.
204
00:07:48,990 --> 00:07:51,296
Let's push back
against that guy.
205
00:07:51,340 --> 00:07:54,517
Maybe blackmail him
into honoring it.
206
00:07:54,561 --> 00:07:57,085
Hmm.
You taught me
that's Carrington 101.
207
00:07:57,128 --> 00:07:59,827
Well, I'm glad you're paying
attention, and I love the way
208
00:07:59,870 --> 00:08:01,176
you're thinking, but
209
00:08:01,219 --> 00:08:02,656
Lipnicki is squeaky clean.
210
00:08:02,699 --> 00:08:03,961
No one is squeaky clean.
211
00:08:04,005 --> 00:08:05,615
I want you
212
00:08:05,659 --> 00:08:07,225
to close your eyes for me
213
00:08:07,269 --> 00:08:09,750
and visualize
Lipnicki's office.
214
00:08:09,793 --> 00:08:12,274
Now, tell me what you see.
215
00:08:13,449 --> 00:08:16,670
I see a bunch of pictures.
Uh... his wife.
216
00:08:16,713 --> 00:08:20,282
Um...
some people skiing,
217
00:08:20,325 --> 00:08:22,023
uh, his fraternity brothers,
218
00:08:22,066 --> 00:08:24,286
Lipnicki and the governor.
219
00:08:24,329 --> 00:08:25,548
Perfect.
220
00:08:25,592 --> 00:08:27,942
- We have everything we need.
- We do?
221
00:08:27,985 --> 00:08:30,901
Fraternity brothers?
It's almost too easy.
222
00:08:30,945 --> 00:08:33,295
Ah.
223
00:08:33,338 --> 00:08:34,905
Every time
I think I know
224
00:08:34,949 --> 00:08:37,908
all about you,
you show me one...
225
00:08:37,952 --> 00:08:39,431
hotter side.
226
00:08:40,911 --> 00:08:44,524
As you requested, my list
of soul mate requirements.
227
00:08:46,569 --> 00:08:48,702
Five-eight or taller.
228
00:08:48,745 --> 00:08:50,312
Physically fit.
229
00:08:50,355 --> 00:08:51,792
Artistic.
Multi-lingual.
230
00:08:51,835 --> 00:08:54,708
How many languages
can you speak?
231
00:08:54,751 --> 00:08:56,579
One, which is why
she needs to speak multiple.
232
00:08:56,623 --> 00:08:59,800
- Impeccable manners.
- I can't believe you allowed yourself to date me.
233
00:08:59,843 --> 00:09:02,063
Who knew you were so picky?
Not picky,
234
00:09:02,106 --> 00:09:03,804
just high standards.
235
00:09:03,847 --> 00:09:05,806
My parents
had a magical relationship,
236
00:09:05,849 --> 00:09:06,894
and I want nothing less.
237
00:09:06,937 --> 00:09:08,069
We're not magicians.
238
00:09:08,112 --> 00:09:09,723
We'll find you a woman.
239
00:09:09,766 --> 00:09:11,551
I already have onein mind.
240
00:09:11,594 --> 00:09:13,248
I'll set it up tomorrow,
if you're ready to go.
241
00:09:13,291 --> 00:09:16,338
Well, I guess you can't find the
one unless you meet the one, so
242
00:09:16,381 --> 00:09:18,645
let's make the magic happen.
243
00:09:18,688 --> 00:09:20,124
Can I talk to you for a minute?
244
00:09:20,168 --> 00:09:21,822
Always. What's on your mind?
245
00:09:21,865 --> 00:09:25,521
Well, now what's on my mind
is you being undressed in here.
246
00:09:25,565 --> 00:09:27,915
Were you just--
No. I don't want to know. Okay.
247
00:09:27,958 --> 00:09:31,222
I need advice. My board has put
me on temporary medical leave,
248
00:09:31,266 --> 00:09:33,398
and I want to know how I can
circumvent their decision.
249
00:09:33,442 --> 00:09:35,444
Well, that's easy. You can't.
250
00:09:35,487 --> 00:09:37,272
That's your advice?
251
00:09:37,315 --> 00:09:38,969
I once worked nonstop
for two weeks,
252
00:09:39,013 --> 00:09:40,884
doubled over, waiting for
a kidney stone to pass.
253
00:09:40,928 --> 00:09:42,669
No one cared.
254
00:09:42,712 --> 00:09:44,105
That's what happens when you
take your company public.
255
00:09:44,148 --> 00:09:45,323
You got to answer to the public.
256
00:09:45,367 --> 00:09:47,238
Well, no offense
to your slow-rolling
257
00:09:47,282 --> 00:09:48,849
kidney stone,
but I do not accept
258
00:09:48,892 --> 00:09:51,591
your non-advice, and I'm gonna
need this office back now.
259
00:09:51,634 --> 00:09:53,114
That's not happening.
260
00:09:54,202 --> 00:09:56,291
Hey, hey, is something else
bothering you?
261
00:09:58,380 --> 00:09:59,990
Is it Liam?
How are things with him?
262
00:10:00,034 --> 00:10:03,472
Well, your fatherly instincts
are better than your advice.
263
00:10:03,515 --> 00:10:06,083
Things with Liam are...
264
00:10:06,127 --> 00:10:07,389
weird.
265
00:10:07,432 --> 00:10:10,087
They're good,
but not normal good.
266
00:10:10,131 --> 00:10:12,655
It's like we're walking
on eggshells, on ice.
267
00:10:12,699 --> 00:10:14,918
Well, you know, the more time
you spend together,
268
00:10:14,962 --> 00:10:17,225
the more it will feel
like it did pre-coma.
269
00:10:17,268 --> 00:10:19,793
- Yeah.
- How are things in the bedroom?
270
00:10:19,836 --> 00:10:22,665
Now your fatherly instincts
are making me want to throw up.
271
00:10:22,709 --> 00:10:24,667
Mm. Not in my office.
272
00:10:24,711 --> 00:10:26,887
Though, the idea of spending
more time together
273
00:10:26,930 --> 00:10:30,325
isn't terrible, maybe
that'll help break the ice.
274
00:10:30,368 --> 00:10:31,805
- Well, I'm glad I could help.
- No.
275
00:10:31,848 --> 00:10:34,111
Keeping your clothes on
around the manor,
276
00:10:34,155 --> 00:10:35,591
that's more helpful.
277
00:10:38,028 --> 00:10:40,204
Liam, I have an idea.
278
00:10:40,248 --> 00:10:42,076
Hi. I was looking for you.
279
00:10:42,119 --> 00:10:45,035
And I was looking
for Liam, so... He's not here.
280
00:10:45,079 --> 00:10:46,907
And I heard some disturbing news
281
00:10:46,950 --> 00:10:49,518
that FSN is putting
performance clauses
282
00:10:49,561 --> 00:10:51,128
into talent deals
283
00:10:51,172 --> 00:10:53,348
which could negatively impact
284
00:10:53,391 --> 00:10:55,176
- my deal.
- Well...
285
00:10:55,219 --> 00:10:58,701
I'm sure that's not true.
Everything has to go through me.
286
00:10:58,745 --> 00:11:01,573
Good, because I agreed
to be in business with you,
287
00:11:01,617 --> 00:11:03,140
not some
faceless board,
288
00:11:03,184 --> 00:11:06,361
so I expect you to go to them
and fix this.
289
00:11:06,404 --> 00:11:07,928
Right.
290
00:11:07,971 --> 00:11:11,018
Well, I can't go
do that right now.
291
00:11:11,061 --> 00:11:13,237
Um... Can you give me
a couple weeks?
292
00:11:13,281 --> 00:11:16,763
Unacceptable. They're discussing
this new policy change tomorrow,
293
00:11:16,806 --> 00:11:18,721
and I want it stopped.
Do I need
294
00:11:18,765 --> 00:11:21,463
to remind you how valuable I am
to your company?
295
00:11:21,506 --> 00:11:24,727
- I get your daily texts.
- If it's a problem,
296
00:11:24,771 --> 00:11:27,904
I can take FSN's number one show
to another network.
297
00:11:27,948 --> 00:11:29,863
Okay, let's not be
more dramatic than usual.
298
00:11:29,906 --> 00:11:31,560
I will just find
299
00:11:31,603 --> 00:11:33,910
some way to go to that
board meeting tomorrow, okay?
300
00:11:36,608 --> 00:11:38,219
I think we're almost done here.
301
00:11:38,262 --> 00:11:40,612
I just need to test you
on a few last things.
302
00:11:40,656 --> 00:11:42,310
I'm ready for
any test you got.
303
00:11:42,353 --> 00:11:44,051
Okay.
304
00:11:44,094 --> 00:11:46,053
Would you like a drink
with dinner, Cristal?
305
00:11:46,096 --> 00:11:47,750
Of course, my love.
306
00:11:47,794 --> 00:11:50,231
I'll have my usual.
Whiskey sour
307
00:11:50,274 --> 00:11:52,146
with maple syrup,
not simple syrup.
308
00:11:52,189 --> 00:11:55,236
Perfect.
309
00:11:55,279 --> 00:11:57,760
Tell me, what's our
father's sister's name?
310
00:11:57,804 --> 00:12:00,154
Silvio was an only child, Beto,
311
00:12:00,197 --> 00:12:02,896
but our mother has two siblings,
312
00:12:02,939 --> 00:12:04,245
Tío Javy and Tía Rosa.
313
00:12:04,288 --> 00:12:07,074
How about Cristal's laugh?
It's very specific.
314
00:12:07,117 --> 00:12:10,251
All right. You mean...
315
00:12:15,299 --> 00:12:17,737
Oh, this is gonna work out
even better than I imagined.
316
00:12:23,699 --> 00:12:25,875
Those people
at Fallon Unlimited
317
00:12:25,919 --> 00:12:27,703
have some nerve
treating me like this.
318
00:12:27,747 --> 00:12:30,575
I am the face
of their shopping network.
319
00:12:30,619 --> 00:12:32,882
You don't slap the face
that feeds you.
320
00:12:32,926 --> 00:12:34,275
Right.
321
00:12:34,318 --> 00:12:35,972
You should be equally
outraged, Jeff.
322
00:12:36,016 --> 00:12:39,410
As an investor in Dom-Mystique,
this could hurt you, too.
323
00:12:39,454 --> 00:12:40,847
Yeah, absolutely.
324
00:12:42,892 --> 00:12:44,764
You don't seem outraged.
325
00:12:44,807 --> 00:12:47,418
You seem like that lobster
was your best friend.
326
00:12:48,942 --> 00:12:50,247
Okay.
327
00:12:50,291 --> 00:12:52,336
I've been rambling on
328
00:12:52,380 --> 00:12:54,948
about myself this whole time,
I get it.
329
00:12:54,991 --> 00:12:56,427
How are you doing?
330
00:12:56,471 --> 00:12:58,778
Are you at least excited
to be honored for your
331
00:12:58,821 --> 00:13:01,476
charitable work at the
Foundation Gala tomorrow night?
332
00:13:01,519 --> 00:13:03,304
Yeah. Thrilled.
333
00:13:04,871 --> 00:13:06,176
Okay, that's it.
334
00:13:06,220 --> 00:13:09,440
What's going on?
And no more two-word answers.
335
00:13:11,486 --> 00:13:13,314
I've been pursuing
three different tech companies
336
00:13:13,357 --> 00:13:14,489
about a new partnership.
337
00:13:14,532 --> 00:13:16,752
But I can't even get a meeting.
338
00:13:16,796 --> 00:13:18,493
Sweetheart,
maybe they're just busy.
339
00:13:18,536 --> 00:13:20,277
Oh, no, they all got back to me
340
00:13:20,321 --> 00:13:21,670
and said they
weren't interested.
341
00:13:21,713 --> 00:13:23,367
Well, there are other
companies out there.
342
00:13:23,411 --> 00:13:24,760
There could be a million.
It doesn't matter.
343
00:13:24,804 --> 00:13:26,806
After the Colby Co.
Space fiasco,
344
00:13:26,849 --> 00:13:28,633
I'm a liability.
No one will touch me.
345
00:13:28,677 --> 00:13:31,288
Basically, no one
will work with me
346
00:13:31,332 --> 00:13:33,464
until I prove I'm back,
which I can't do
347
00:13:33,508 --> 00:13:35,553
because no one
will work with me.
348
00:13:46,390 --> 00:13:48,349
Well, if it isn't
everyone's
349
00:13:48,392 --> 00:13:50,525
least favorite Carrington.
350
00:13:50,568 --> 00:13:52,135
You know you don't
live here, right?
351
00:13:52,179 --> 00:13:54,137
I could have security
just escort you home.
352
00:13:54,181 --> 00:13:55,791
Yeah, I'm looking for Fallon.
353
00:13:55,835 --> 00:13:57,706
She's actually
tied with me for, um,
354
00:13:57,749 --> 00:13:59,273
well, everyone's favorite.
355
00:13:59,316 --> 00:14:01,884
Hmm. I'm not my sister's keeper.
356
00:14:01,928 --> 00:14:03,364
What's this about then?
357
00:14:03,407 --> 00:14:05,366
Some kind of art therapy?
358
00:14:05,409 --> 00:14:07,411
Well, I'm trying to decide
359
00:14:07,455 --> 00:14:10,240
on a logo for
my new company, ACI.
360
00:14:10,284 --> 00:14:12,808
Adam Carrington Industries.
361
00:14:12,852 --> 00:14:14,723
You know, setting up
a new empire is...
362
00:14:14,766 --> 00:14:16,812
well, it's daunting
and exciting, really.
363
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,815
Yeah, this beauty and anti-aging
company is going to be massive.
364
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:21,382
Is it?
365
00:14:21,425 --> 00:14:23,514
I just have a feeling that soon
the only logo you'll need
366
00:14:23,558 --> 00:14:25,255
is the one for the county jail.
367
00:14:25,299 --> 00:14:28,519
Clever, but I'm not worried
because my alibi is airtight
368
00:14:28,563 --> 00:14:30,695
and your obsession
369
00:14:30,739 --> 00:14:32,741
with me is a little sad.
370
00:14:36,788 --> 00:14:38,442
That looked like fun.
371
00:14:38,486 --> 00:14:41,228
Yeah, he's a treat.
Um, have you seen Fallon?
372
00:14:41,271 --> 00:14:42,707
I just need
an extra set
373
00:14:42,751 --> 00:14:44,927
of eyes to help me catch
a Peeping Tom.
374
00:14:44,971 --> 00:14:47,451
Uh, Fallon left,
but I have two eyes
375
00:14:47,495 --> 00:14:49,236
and nothing to do.
Count me in.
376
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:52,761
Um, are you sure? We just,
we barely know each other.
377
00:14:52,804 --> 00:14:54,458
I'm bored, I don't have a job,
378
00:14:54,502 --> 00:14:57,026
and the idea of hunting
for a Peeping Tom sounds
379
00:14:57,070 --> 00:14:59,289
far more thrilling
than rewatching season 21
380
00:14:59,333 --> 00:15:00,769
of Celebrity Intervention.
381
00:15:00,812 --> 00:15:02,597
Wait, the one with Natasha?
382
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,469
Oh, my God, yes. So good.
383
00:15:05,513 --> 00:15:06,949
It's so good.
384
00:15:07,819 --> 00:15:10,474
I see you brought your enforcer
with you this time.
385
00:15:10,518 --> 00:15:11,911
Hello,
Mrs. Carrington.
386
00:15:11,954 --> 00:15:13,608
Apparently, your husband
didn't explain to you
387
00:15:13,651 --> 00:15:15,001
that this is not
a negotiation.
388
00:15:15,044 --> 00:15:17,177
No, he did, but we're
not here to negotiate.
389
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:20,310
We're here to tell you
what's about to happen.
390
00:15:20,354 --> 00:15:22,704
We uncovered some details
of a fraternity party
391
00:15:22,747 --> 00:15:25,011
gone horribly wrong
while you were
392
00:15:25,054 --> 00:15:26,926
a senior
at Atlanta A&M.
393
00:15:26,969 --> 00:15:30,364
She may not look tough,
but trust me, she's a savage.
394
00:15:33,933 --> 00:15:35,064
I wasn't even living
in the house at this time,
395
00:15:35,108 --> 00:15:36,892
so even if something
did happen,
396
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:39,764
I wasn't involved.
I think we're done here.
397
00:15:39,808 --> 00:15:40,983
No, I don't think we are.
398
00:15:41,027 --> 00:15:43,203
You see, seems that
one of your bros,
399
00:15:43,246 --> 00:15:44,378
who apparently
400
00:15:44,421 --> 00:15:45,683
has a grudge
against you,
401
00:15:45,727 --> 00:15:47,250
is willing to testify
that you
402
00:15:47,294 --> 00:15:49,557
were in the house.
403
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:50,862
You're bluffing.
404
00:15:50,906 --> 00:15:52,995
Are you sure you want
to take that chance?
405
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:55,693
Could be anyone. Maybe Cooper,
down in Tallahassee?
406
00:15:55,737 --> 00:15:58,696
Right. You remember,
The Grateful Coop?
407
00:15:58,740 --> 00:16:00,263
- Or Jefferson, in Dallas?
- J-Money.
408
00:16:00,307 --> 00:16:03,266
Did your fraternity have a rule
about horrible nicknames?
409
00:16:03,310 --> 00:16:05,051
And those
410
00:16:05,094 --> 00:16:07,140
are just the ones in the photo.
There were a lot of people
411
00:16:07,183 --> 00:16:10,360
- in that house.
- We're not bluffing, Lippy.
412
00:16:10,404 --> 00:16:12,362
So, in addition to what
we already agreed upon,
413
00:16:12,406 --> 00:16:15,800
we're gonna need, you know,
a little bit more.
414
00:16:15,844 --> 00:16:17,411
Guaranteed government contracts
415
00:16:17,454 --> 00:16:19,674
- for Flores Incorporado.
- I don't even know what that is.
416
00:16:19,717 --> 00:16:21,806
That's all right,
we'll fill you in.
417
00:16:22,982 --> 00:16:24,679
I'll have to talk
to the governor.
418
00:16:24,722 --> 00:16:26,942
You have 24 hours.
419
00:16:28,596 --> 00:16:30,250
Have a good day.
420
00:16:33,775 --> 00:16:36,343
Mmm. Amazing.
421
00:16:36,386 --> 00:16:37,605
Thank you.
422
00:16:37,648 --> 00:16:39,433
Just the husband
I've been looking for.
423
00:16:39,476 --> 00:16:41,565
Hopefully the only one.
What's with the basket?
424
00:16:41,609 --> 00:16:43,741
I was thinking
it would be good
425
00:16:43,785 --> 00:16:45,308
for us to do something fun
together tomorrow.
426
00:16:45,352 --> 00:16:48,616
You know, like we used to before
the drama train rolled in.
427
00:16:48,659 --> 00:16:50,270
Unless, of course,
428
00:16:50,313 --> 00:16:54,361
you're busy or not in the mood
for fun with me.
429
00:16:54,404 --> 00:16:56,624
I'm totally in the mood.
430
00:16:57,712 --> 00:16:59,844
Wait, you thinking
outdoor adventure,
431
00:16:59,888 --> 00:17:01,759
like rock climbing?
'Cause I'm so down for that.
432
00:17:01,803 --> 00:17:03,848
No, I told you we're never
doing that again,
433
00:17:03,892 --> 00:17:05,285
but...
434
00:17:05,328 --> 00:17:07,939
if you're down for an adventure,
I've got it covered.
435
00:17:08,984 --> 00:17:10,812
Nice moon.
436
00:17:10,855 --> 00:17:14,033
- No drone. I'm bored.
- Well...
437
00:17:14,076 --> 00:17:17,819
security says it usually
flies by at 7:00, so...
438
00:17:17,862 --> 00:17:20,474
I'll watch the east,
- you watch the west?
- Gotcha.
439
00:17:20,517 --> 00:17:23,042
Other west.
440
00:17:23,085 --> 00:17:24,695
Gotcha.
441
00:17:30,005 --> 00:17:31,441
What if it doesn't
show up?
442
00:17:31,485 --> 00:17:32,964
It will.
443
00:17:33,008 --> 00:17:34,923
Security says the perv
shows up rain or shine.
444
00:17:34,966 --> 00:17:38,274
We could be here
all night.
445
00:17:38,318 --> 00:17:40,450
What are you doing?
446
00:17:40,494 --> 00:17:42,626
You crazy?
That's never gonna work.
447
00:17:42,670 --> 00:17:44,237
If you want to catch
a Peeping Tom,
448
00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,152
you have to give them
something to peep at.
449
00:17:48,371 --> 00:17:49,546
Drone!
450
00:17:56,510 --> 00:17:58,903
Okay, so it's landed on the...
451
00:17:58,947 --> 00:18:02,646
ninth floor balcony. Perfect.
I'm gonna go over there.
452
00:18:02,690 --> 00:18:05,345
Hey, um,
thanks for helping.
453
00:18:05,388 --> 00:18:07,260
This was fun,
but maybe
454
00:18:07,303 --> 00:18:10,263
get some mace before you go
see the creepy guy.
455
00:18:10,306 --> 00:18:12,221
Yeah.
456
00:18:15,311 --> 00:18:17,748
What is happening?
You are knocking
457
00:18:17,792 --> 00:18:19,620
way too loud, unless
the building is on fire.
458
00:18:19,663 --> 00:18:21,752
That's the least of your
problems, you sicko.
459
00:18:21,796 --> 00:18:23,014
I'm sorry, do I know you?
460
00:18:23,058 --> 00:18:24,973
No, but only because
I haven't undressed
461
00:18:25,016 --> 00:18:26,409
in the building
across the street.
462
00:18:26,453 --> 00:18:29,238
So, you're talking about
undressing, and I'm the sicko?
463
00:18:29,282 --> 00:18:30,935
I think you should probably
leave, since I have no idea
464
00:18:30,979 --> 00:18:32,894
- what you're talking about.
- No.
465
00:18:32,937 --> 00:18:35,418
I am talking about your drone,
you pervert.
466
00:18:35,462 --> 00:18:37,420
I caught it in the act.
You have been spying
467
00:18:37,464 --> 00:18:39,466
on women for the last two weeks
with that thing.
468
00:18:39,509 --> 00:18:41,250
I'm sorry to disappoint you,
but that wasn't me.
469
00:18:41,294 --> 00:18:42,208
Oh, really?
470
00:18:42,251 --> 00:18:43,948
Well, can you
tell me why
471
00:18:43,992 --> 00:18:46,081
I saw the drone come back
and land on your balcony?
472
00:18:47,822 --> 00:18:49,128
Sadly, I can.
473
00:18:50,694 --> 00:18:52,131
- Oh, you can?
- I think I know
474
00:18:52,174 --> 00:18:54,481
who the pervert is,
as you so charmingly
475
00:18:54,524 --> 00:18:55,786
put it.
476
00:18:55,830 --> 00:18:57,614
My nephew Timmy
has been staying with me
477
00:18:57,658 --> 00:18:59,790
for a few weeks,
and I had no idea
478
00:18:59,834 --> 00:19:01,966
what the kid was doing
out there. He's ten,
479
00:19:02,010 --> 00:19:04,708
or 14. I don't ask
a lot of questions.
480
00:19:04,752 --> 00:19:06,319
Well, I'm sure the police
481
00:19:06,362 --> 00:19:08,930
will have some questions
for your so-called "nephew."
482
00:19:08,973 --> 00:19:10,497
No, no, no, please
do not call the police.
483
00:19:10,540 --> 00:19:12,281
My sister already thinks
I'm the worst uncle.
484
00:19:12,325 --> 00:19:15,110
Look, I promise I will
make him stop and delete
485
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:17,678
- all of the video.
- No! Um, no.
486
00:19:17,721 --> 00:19:20,246
One of his videos...
487
00:19:20,985 --> 00:19:24,032
It could be the only thing that
exonerates my mother of murder.
488
00:19:25,251 --> 00:19:27,557
Wow, a murder? Really?
489
00:19:27,601 --> 00:19:30,647
Look, it's a long shot,
but I'm-I'm praying
490
00:19:30,691 --> 00:19:33,520
that he was flying his drone
the night of the crime.
491
00:19:33,563 --> 00:19:37,263
Well, only one way to find out.
492
00:19:38,786 --> 00:19:39,961
Hey, Timmy!
493
00:19:40,004 --> 00:19:43,573
Get your ten-to-14-year-old
butt out here.
494
00:19:53,279 --> 00:19:54,628
What am I watching?
495
00:19:54,671 --> 00:19:55,846
Your demise?
496
00:19:58,632 --> 00:20:00,982
Is that...
497
00:20:01,374 --> 00:20:02,766
Where did you get this?
498
00:20:03,854 --> 00:20:05,508
Unfortunately,
the drone only got
499
00:20:05,552 --> 00:20:07,162
those few moments
before it flew off.
500
00:20:07,206 --> 00:20:09,860
What's this supposed to prove?
501
00:20:09,904 --> 00:20:11,122
There isn't even
any sound.
502
00:20:11,166 --> 00:20:12,385
It proves that you were there,
503
00:20:12,428 --> 00:20:14,256
not Alexis, so when
the district attorney
504
00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:17,128
sees it, our mother
will look way less guilty,
505
00:20:17,172 --> 00:20:19,043
and you will look, well,
completely guilty.
506
00:20:20,915 --> 00:20:23,526
Okay.
The truth is, um...
507
00:20:23,570 --> 00:20:25,528
Bobby's death
508
00:20:25,572 --> 00:20:27,226
was, uh, it was
an accident.
509
00:20:27,269 --> 00:20:28,575
He-he charged me,
510
00:20:28,618 --> 00:20:30,272
and-and when I moved
out of the way,
511
00:20:30,316 --> 00:20:32,231
he slipped, and he just...
512
00:20:35,016 --> 00:20:36,670
Which you would've seen
if the drone hadn't have left.
513
00:20:36,713 --> 00:20:38,280
Well, I'm sure the police
514
00:20:38,324 --> 00:20:40,282
will take your word for it,
with your history
515
00:20:40,326 --> 00:20:41,936
of honesty and good deeds.
516
00:20:41,979 --> 00:20:43,285
Listen, Hagatha Christie,
517
00:20:43,329 --> 00:20:45,287
that's why I didn't tell them.
518
00:20:45,331 --> 00:20:47,246
I never actually thought
they would convict Alexis
519
00:20:47,289 --> 00:20:48,725
on circumstantial evidence.
520
00:20:48,769 --> 00:20:50,292
Oh, right, yeah, I'm sure.
521
00:20:50,336 --> 00:20:52,512
Children, please don't fight
in front of your mother
522
00:20:52,555 --> 00:20:54,601
while she is in lockup.
523
00:20:54,644 --> 00:20:56,255
Adam, I have a plan. Amanda,
524
00:20:56,298 --> 00:20:58,082
would you give us
a moment, please?
525
00:20:58,126 --> 00:20:59,693
I know you don't
agree with this,
526
00:20:59,736 --> 00:21:01,564
but it's what is right
for everyone.
527
00:21:08,441 --> 00:21:11,139
- What-What's this?
- A contract. It's simple.
528
00:21:11,182 --> 00:21:12,314
You sign over
the rights
529
00:21:12,358 --> 00:21:14,360
to your anti-aging drug
to me,
530
00:21:14,403 --> 00:21:16,144
or I show the video to the D.A.
531
00:21:16,187 --> 00:21:18,146
That-that makes no sense.
532
00:21:18,189 --> 00:21:19,800
What-what good
will a patent be
533
00:21:19,843 --> 00:21:21,497
- if you're stuck in jail?
- Like you said,
534
00:21:21,541 --> 00:21:24,021
they won't convict me
on circumstantial evidence.
535
00:21:24,065 --> 00:21:26,763
So, now the question is whether
you'll be taking my spot here.
536
00:21:26,807 --> 00:21:30,811
Mother, I really need
this patent for ACI.
537
00:21:31,551 --> 00:21:33,988
- Adam Carrington Industries.
- Don't worry.
538
00:21:34,031 --> 00:21:36,295
You'll retain
a small percentage.
539
00:21:36,338 --> 00:21:39,602
I am not Dr. Larson-level
greedy. Plus,
540
00:21:39,646 --> 00:21:41,561
I don't want you to push me
over a balcony.
541
00:21:41,604 --> 00:21:44,346
I told you it was
an accident. Bu...
542
00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:47,436
There...
543
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,830
there has to be some
other way. I've...
544
00:21:49,873 --> 00:21:51,788
I've worked way too hard
for this.
545
00:21:51,832 --> 00:21:55,009
Well, if you think of one while
you're lying on your metal bed
546
00:21:55,052 --> 00:21:57,098
in your cell,
let me know.
547
00:21:57,141 --> 00:22:00,493
Though, the phone
does get quite crowded,
548
00:22:00,536 --> 00:22:02,973
so get there early.
549
00:22:07,413 --> 00:22:09,066
Cristal.
550
00:22:09,110 --> 00:22:10,546
Beto? What are you
doing here?
551
00:22:10,590 --> 00:22:12,200
You're not supposed
to be in Atlanta.
552
00:22:12,243 --> 00:22:13,723
And yet, here I am.
553
00:22:13,767 --> 00:22:15,595
- Why?
- You'll find out soon enough.
554
00:22:15,638 --> 00:22:17,858
I don't have time
for you and your drama.
555
00:22:17,901 --> 00:22:20,513
I'm hosting a big gala
at the ma...
556
00:22:26,736 --> 00:22:28,564
Fallon is honoring
her medical leave,
557
00:22:28,608 --> 00:22:31,872
but it is within her legal right
to appoint me as her proxy.
558
00:22:31,915 --> 00:22:35,136
So, let's get down to business.
I am ready, willing and able.
559
00:22:35,179 --> 00:22:37,617
Will you give us a moment
to discuss this, Liam?
560
00:22:37,660 --> 00:22:39,488
Sure, but keep it to a moment.
561
00:22:43,100 --> 00:22:46,408
Have I mentioned I think
this is a monumentally bad idea
562
00:22:46,452 --> 00:22:48,758
and not remotely what I pictured
for our adventure?
563
00:22:48,802 --> 00:22:49,759
Yes, yes, I know,
564
00:22:49,803 --> 00:22:51,326
but I need you to stop them
565
00:22:51,370 --> 00:22:53,067
from making a huge mistake.
566
00:22:53,110 --> 00:22:55,548
So, just say what I say.
Come on, it'll be fun for us.
567
00:22:55,591 --> 00:22:56,766
We never do stuff
like this anymore.
568
00:22:56,810 --> 00:23:00,248
Liam, we'll allow
your proxy vote.
569
00:23:00,291 --> 00:23:02,555
- Great.
- Well, the first order
570
00:23:02,598 --> 00:23:04,992
of business today is the new
FSN talent deals.
571
00:23:06,167 --> 00:23:07,255
Fabulous.
572
00:23:07,298 --> 00:23:08,648
Tell them that the proposed
573
00:23:08,691 --> 00:23:10,258
performance clauses
in the new talent deals
574
00:23:10,301 --> 00:23:11,955
may seem fine on paper,
575
00:23:11,999 --> 00:23:13,783
but they will backfire spectacularly
576
00:23:13,827 --> 00:23:16,743
when they cause
our top designers to walk.
577
00:23:18,658 --> 00:23:20,877
You know what's
not fabulous?
578
00:23:20,921 --> 00:23:24,446
The proposed performance
clauses in the talent deals,
579
00:23:24,490 --> 00:23:26,100
which will backfire spectacularly
580
00:23:26,143 --> 00:23:28,058
when they cause
our top designers to walk.
581
00:23:28,102 --> 00:23:29,495
Good. I mean, you know,
582
00:23:29,538 --> 00:23:31,540
you left the part out
about the paper, but
583
00:23:31,584 --> 00:23:33,194
you're improv-ing,
which is fun. See?
584
00:23:33,237 --> 00:23:34,456
We're good at this.
585
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:35,675
No, but won't
performance clauses
586
00:23:35,718 --> 00:23:37,590
incentivize our
top designers?
587
00:23:39,287 --> 00:23:40,854
Great question, Ellen.
588
00:23:40,897 --> 00:23:44,597
One that will take
a minute or two to answer.
589
00:23:45,989 --> 00:23:48,601
They're artists first,
and we can't afford to risk that
590
00:23:48,644 --> 00:23:50,559
perceived
organizational distrust
591
00:23:50,603 --> 00:23:53,736
will cause them to sacrifice
creativity over quality.
592
00:23:54,998 --> 00:23:56,478
They're artists first.
593
00:23:56,522 --> 00:23:59,655
And we can't afford for
our organization not to
594
00:23:59,699 --> 00:24:01,962
trust them or their creativity.
595
00:24:02,005 --> 00:24:04,051
Okay, I said improv,
not rewrite.
596
00:24:04,094 --> 00:24:06,793
Hmm. You make a good point.
597
00:24:06,836 --> 00:24:07,794
Thank you, Ellen.
598
00:24:15,889 --> 00:24:17,499
There's a rat.
599
00:24:17,543 --> 00:24:19,153
There's a rat. There's a rat.
600
00:24:19,196 --> 00:24:22,417
- And furthermore, there's a rat.
- ELLEN:In...
601
00:24:22,461 --> 00:24:24,637
In the company? Like the Mafia?
602
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,029
No. No, no, no, no, no, no.
603
00:24:26,073 --> 00:24:28,510
There's-there's,
like, a real rat in the vent.
604
00:24:31,861 --> 00:24:33,820
No.
605
00:24:33,863 --> 00:24:35,952
I mean there's a rat
606
00:24:35,996 --> 00:24:38,041
in all of us
607
00:24:38,085 --> 00:24:39,478
just...
608
00:24:39,521 --> 00:24:43,003
scurrying to get
to the organizational cheese.
609
00:24:43,046 --> 00:24:45,396
Seriously?
610
00:24:50,010 --> 00:24:51,359
Oh, my...
611
00:24:51,402 --> 00:24:53,361
Fallon?
612
00:24:54,754 --> 00:24:56,712
- Are you okay?
- I'm fine. Good news.
613
00:24:56,756 --> 00:24:57,974
I was able
614
00:24:58,018 --> 00:25:00,673
to locate the source
of the rodent problem,
615
00:25:00,716 --> 00:25:02,501
and you guys are all good.
616
00:25:02,544 --> 00:25:05,199
So carry on,
and I'll be on my way.
617
00:25:05,242 --> 00:25:07,723
You have left me no choice.
618
00:25:07,767 --> 00:25:10,378
I will now personally submit
a motion to the board
619
00:25:10,421 --> 00:25:12,162
to permanently remove you
as CEO.
620
00:25:12,206 --> 00:25:13,424
Yeah.
621
00:25:13,468 --> 00:25:15,035
I figured.
622
00:25:15,078 --> 00:25:17,907
But Liam can still vote for
me at that meeting, right?
623
00:25:20,606 --> 00:25:22,869
Sorry, I thought
it was the rat.
624
00:25:29,353 --> 00:25:30,572
What the hell is going on here,
625
00:25:30,616 --> 00:25:32,313
Beto? Where are we?
626
00:25:32,356 --> 00:25:34,315
Untie me right now.
627
00:25:34,358 --> 00:25:36,012
¿Estás loco?
628
00:25:36,056 --> 00:25:38,580
Okay, cálmate, hermana.
629
00:25:38,624 --> 00:25:41,017
I mean, you can scream all you
want. No one's gonna hear you
630
00:25:41,061 --> 00:25:42,149
where we are.
631
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,066
Is this about money?
632
00:25:46,109 --> 00:25:49,243
Untie me,
and I'll write you a check.
633
00:25:50,157 --> 00:25:52,333
I'll untie you when you behave.
634
00:25:52,376 --> 00:25:53,813
I don't want a check.
635
00:25:53,856 --> 00:25:55,466
I want our family company,
which you stole from me.
636
00:25:55,510 --> 00:25:56,555
Haven't we been over this?
637
00:25:56,598 --> 00:25:57,904
It's not gonna happen.
638
00:25:57,947 --> 00:26:00,123
But I'm expected at the gala,
and the second
639
00:26:00,167 --> 00:26:02,996
Blake knows I'm missing,
- he'll look for me.
- Don't worry.
640
00:26:03,039 --> 00:26:06,042
You are already at the gala.
641
00:26:14,355 --> 00:26:17,227
Excuse me. Great news.
642
00:26:17,271 --> 00:26:18,707
The governor signed off
643
00:26:18,751 --> 00:26:20,796
on our deal. We got
everything we wanted. He had
644
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:22,711
no idea we were bluffing.
645
00:26:22,755 --> 00:26:24,626
How did you know?
646
00:26:24,670 --> 00:26:27,629
Well, I'm pretty good
at reading people.
647
00:26:27,673 --> 00:26:30,197
- As a physical therapist.
- Mm.
648
00:26:31,067 --> 00:26:33,853
I've never been more thrilled to
have you as my wife and partner.
649
00:26:35,289 --> 00:26:37,204
Wait a minute.
650
00:26:39,467 --> 00:26:41,817
Where's your wedding ring?
651
00:26:42,644 --> 00:26:45,125
Oh. I must have left it
652
00:26:45,168 --> 00:26:46,735
at the salon
when I got my manicure.
653
00:26:46,779 --> 00:26:48,824
I'll call them and
have them hold it
654
00:26:48,868 --> 00:26:51,218
- for me until the morning.
- Okay.
655
00:26:51,261 --> 00:26:52,480
These things happen.
656
00:26:52,523 --> 00:26:53,873
Now let's go
657
00:26:53,916 --> 00:26:56,223
show everyone
who means anything in Atlanta
658
00:26:56,266 --> 00:26:58,225
how stunning you are.
659
00:27:08,888 --> 00:27:11,760
Wow. You definitely stuck
this landing
660
00:27:11,804 --> 00:27:13,762
a whole lot better than the
one at the board meeting.
661
00:27:13,806 --> 00:27:16,460
I may still have a piece
of plaster lodged in my ear,
662
00:27:16,504 --> 00:27:18,854
but thank you.
So, you're not mad?
663
00:27:18,898 --> 00:27:21,422
No. No, I feel bad
about how it turned out.
664
00:27:21,465 --> 00:27:24,164
I got to admit, that was
kind of wild, though.
665
00:27:24,207 --> 00:27:25,556
It's given me
a couple ideas
666
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,254
of other things that
we can do together.
667
00:27:27,297 --> 00:27:28,690
Oh, such as?
668
00:27:28,734 --> 00:27:30,431
Oh, I don't know.
669
00:27:31,258 --> 00:27:34,087
Have you ever had sex
in a closet at a gala?
670
00:27:34,130 --> 00:27:36,611
Ooh, it's like
a pornographic game of Clue.
671
00:27:36,655 --> 00:27:38,134
But sadly,
672
00:27:38,178 --> 00:27:40,397
as much as I've missed
tearing your clothes off
673
00:27:40,441 --> 00:27:41,529
and you tearing mine,
674
00:27:41,572 --> 00:27:42,748
I have to keep them on
a little longer
675
00:27:42,791 --> 00:27:44,184
because I invited Ellen
676
00:27:44,227 --> 00:27:45,794
and the board,
and they're here somewhere.
677
00:27:45,838 --> 00:27:48,188
That's surprisingly mature
- of you.
- That's what I want
678
00:27:48,231 --> 00:27:49,624
them to think. I need them here
679
00:27:49,668 --> 00:27:51,800
when the 200 shareholders
waiting outside storm in
680
00:27:51,844 --> 00:27:53,715
to vote them out,
which, before you ask,
681
00:27:53,759 --> 00:27:54,716
is perfectly legal.
682
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,196
Legal? Sure.
683
00:27:56,239 --> 00:27:58,851
- Ethical? Eh. Maybe.
- I just have to find
684
00:27:58,894 --> 00:28:01,723
Jeff to tell him that my speech
praising his charitable work
685
00:28:01,767 --> 00:28:02,985
now includes
a hostile takeover
686
00:28:03,029 --> 00:28:04,726
of my own company.
I'll give Betty
687
00:28:04,770 --> 00:28:06,336
the signal.
She'll bring in the horde.
688
00:28:06,380 --> 00:28:08,077
Everything
will be back to normal.
689
00:28:08,121 --> 00:28:10,645
Got it. Hostile
takeover first.
690
00:28:10,689 --> 00:28:12,473
Clothes ripping second.
691
00:28:12,516 --> 00:28:14,475
Perfect.
692
00:28:18,305 --> 00:28:19,915
Do you think people
actually just want
693
00:28:19,959 --> 00:28:21,917
the mint jelly? This is
completely unprofessional.
694
00:28:21,961 --> 00:28:25,529
- Go get some lamb.
- Hello, darling.
695
00:28:26,792 --> 00:28:28,097
Mother, what are you
doing here? Did...
696
00:28:28,141 --> 00:28:29,577
Did you escape? Wait,
697
00:28:29,620 --> 00:28:31,274
you-you know that this is
probably the second place
698
00:28:31,318 --> 00:28:32,754
the police
are gonna look for you,
699
00:28:32,798 --> 00:28:34,103
- right?
- Why are you being so paranoid?
700
00:28:34,147 --> 00:28:35,452
You're acting
like my cellmate.
701
00:28:35,496 --> 00:28:37,019
I didn't escape anything.
I was released
702
00:28:37,063 --> 00:28:38,325
when I showed the entire video
703
00:28:38,368 --> 00:28:40,849
to the D.A.Wait, entire video?
704
00:28:40,893 --> 00:28:42,764
Excuse me.
I have been doing hard time,
705
00:28:42,808 --> 00:28:44,287
- and now I need hard liquor.
- Uh,
706
00:28:44,331 --> 00:28:45,506
no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no.
707
00:28:45,549 --> 00:28:46,768
You are not going anywhere
708
00:28:46,812 --> 00:28:49,075
until you give
me some answers.
709
00:28:49,118 --> 00:28:51,817
You can be quite exhausting,
you know that?
710
00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:56,299
You might want to grab
some popcorn.
711
00:29:01,652 --> 00:29:04,003
See? It was an accident.
712
00:29:08,485 --> 00:29:11,184
You had that the whole time.
And you tricked me
713
00:29:11,227 --> 00:29:13,316
into signing over the rights
to my patent to you.
714
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,624
Yes. It's almost as bad
as letting me rot in jail
715
00:29:16,667 --> 00:29:17,799
for a crime I didn't commit.
716
00:29:17,843 --> 00:29:19,453
Apples and oranges, really.
717
00:29:19,496 --> 00:29:21,803
Anyway,
the D.A. ruled it an accident,
718
00:29:21,847 --> 00:29:23,849
and after
a not insignificant donation
719
00:29:23,892 --> 00:29:25,285
to the Policeman's Fund,
720
00:29:25,328 --> 00:29:27,026
no charges
will be brought against you
721
00:29:27,069 --> 00:29:29,158
for lying to the police.
722
00:29:29,202 --> 00:29:31,595
All's well that ends well, then.
723
00:29:31,639 --> 00:29:34,294
We should celebrate, right?
724
00:29:34,337 --> 00:29:35,861
I will.
725
00:29:35,904 --> 00:29:38,777
And I expect to see you bright
and early at the penthouse
726
00:29:38,820 --> 00:29:39,778
to get started
727
00:29:39,821 --> 00:29:41,823
on our company. Oh,
728
00:29:41,867 --> 00:29:44,304
and I've thought about
it. The name ACI?
729
00:29:44,347 --> 00:29:45,087
It's out.
730
00:29:45,131 --> 00:29:47,089
What? But I have logos.
731
00:29:47,133 --> 00:29:48,090
We'll make new ones.
732
00:29:48,134 --> 00:29:49,700
The company is now called
733
00:29:49,744 --> 00:29:50,876
ALEXAM.
734
00:29:50,919 --> 00:29:52,834
Hate it.
735
00:29:53,922 --> 00:29:55,532
Mother?
736
00:29:55,576 --> 00:29:57,491
What are you doing here?
737
00:29:57,534 --> 00:29:59,841
Did you escape? Did you get your
hair done after you broke out?
738
00:29:59,885 --> 00:30:01,930
I'm free. And I am so happy
739
00:30:01,974 --> 00:30:04,977
to see you up, healthy
and looking gorgeous.
740
00:30:05,020 --> 00:30:06,717
I'm so sorry
741
00:30:06,761 --> 00:30:08,023
I didn't visit you
at the hospital,
742
00:30:08,067 --> 00:30:10,025
but I was, you know,
in the slammer.
743
00:30:10,069 --> 00:30:11,287
And I'm sorry
I didn't visit you in prison,
744
00:30:11,331 --> 00:30:12,941
but I was, you know, in a coma.
745
00:30:12,985 --> 00:30:14,769
Should you be running around?
- How are you feeling?
- Oh,
746
00:30:14,813 --> 00:30:17,163
I feel fine. I would love
to talk, and we will later,
747
00:30:17,206 --> 00:30:20,906
but I have a work crisis
that needs my focus.
748
00:30:21,776 --> 00:30:23,125
Mm.
749
00:30:23,169 --> 00:30:24,866
It's like I never left.
750
00:30:24,910 --> 00:30:27,086
Oh, champagne boy. Yes.
751
00:30:27,913 --> 00:30:29,523
I can't believe he found
752
00:30:29,566 --> 00:30:31,917
a flaw with Gigi,
Rachel wasn't his type,
753
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,223
and he just wasn't
feeling Molly.
754
00:30:34,267 --> 00:30:36,225
At least this Nina woman
seems like a contender.
755
00:30:36,269 --> 00:30:38,967
I love her. She stayed
at the hotel a few times.
756
00:30:39,011 --> 00:30:40,577
Gorgeous, successful.
757
00:30:40,621 --> 00:30:43,363
My legit top candidate.
758
00:30:43,406 --> 00:30:45,104
Was there a movie
you fell in love with
759
00:30:45,147 --> 00:30:47,584
as a kid that planted the seeds
of your career path?
760
00:30:47,628 --> 00:30:49,238
That's a very
insightful question.
761
00:30:49,282 --> 00:30:52,067
- I thought so.
- Well, you may think it's weird,
762
00:30:52,111 --> 00:30:54,548
but probably
Silence of the Lambs.
763
00:30:54,591 --> 00:30:56,419
The first time I
finished watching it,
764
00:30:56,463 --> 00:30:58,639
I knew I either wanted to be
an FBI agent
765
00:30:58,682 --> 00:31:00,946
or a film director. Silence of the Lambs?
766
00:31:00,989 --> 00:31:04,863
No, no, no, no, no.
Scary movies, not my thing.
767
00:31:04,906 --> 00:31:06,734
What if I promise
to hold your hand?
768
00:31:06,777 --> 00:31:09,432
Well, that might get me
769
00:31:09,476 --> 00:31:10,520
to reconsider.
770
00:31:16,831 --> 00:31:17,919
Mm. Are you okay?
771
00:31:17,963 --> 00:31:20,182
Yeah, yeah. No, I'm good.
772
00:31:22,358 --> 00:31:24,099
Okay, could you
773
00:31:24,143 --> 00:31:27,015
not lick your fingers, please?
774
00:31:27,059 --> 00:31:28,799
- It's unsanitary.
- For who?
775
00:31:28,843 --> 00:31:30,497
My fingers, my mouth, right?
776
00:31:30,540 --> 00:31:32,281
Yeah, you're not helping.
777
00:31:32,325 --> 00:31:34,109
And you're acting like a child.
778
00:31:34,153 --> 00:31:36,459
I'm not the one
licking my fingers.
779
00:31:36,503 --> 00:31:37,896
Wow. Thank you
780
00:31:37,939 --> 00:31:38,897
for making this so easy.
781
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:41,203
I think we're done here.
782
00:31:41,987 --> 00:31:42,988
You dropped your napkin.
783
00:31:43,031 --> 00:31:44,163
Oh, that's right.
784
00:31:44,206 --> 00:31:46,426
You don't use those.
785
00:31:47,644 --> 00:31:48,950
What the hell just happened?
786
00:31:48,994 --> 00:31:50,691
Nothing happened.
You want to help me?
787
00:31:50,734 --> 00:31:52,432
Stay out of my love life.
788
00:31:55,130 --> 00:31:57,089
This makes no sense.
789
00:31:57,132 --> 00:31:59,091
I mean, I don't
even date women,
790
00:31:59,134 --> 00:32:00,483
and I'd consider
sleeping with Nina.
791
00:32:00,527 --> 00:32:01,354
I have dated women,
792
00:32:01,397 --> 00:32:03,878
and she's an absolute babe.
793
00:32:05,445 --> 00:32:07,012
Well, it's nice to see you
794
00:32:07,055 --> 00:32:08,839
near a bar
instead of behind them.
795
00:32:08,883 --> 00:32:11,930
Thanks to you. You did
one of the most wonderful things
796
00:32:11,973 --> 00:32:14,323
anyone has ever done
for me.
797
00:32:14,367 --> 00:32:15,846
You saved me.
798
00:32:15,890 --> 00:32:17,631
Oh. Mother,
799
00:32:17,674 --> 00:32:20,068
I wanted to introduce you to
Dex Dexter. This is the man
800
00:32:20,112 --> 00:32:21,635
who truly saved you.
801
00:32:21,678 --> 00:32:22,853
Alexis is your mother?
802
00:32:22,897 --> 00:32:24,855
Farnsworth Dexter.
803
00:32:24,899 --> 00:32:26,683
Wow. I haven't been called
804
00:32:26,727 --> 00:32:28,033
Farnsworth since college.
805
00:32:28,076 --> 00:32:30,600
Sorry, what's happening here?
806
00:32:30,644 --> 00:32:33,212
Farnsworth-- Dex--
807
00:32:33,255 --> 00:32:35,692
is the son of Sam Dexter,
808
00:32:35,736 --> 00:32:37,172
who sat on the board
at C.A.
809
00:32:37,216 --> 00:32:39,392
Our families have been friends
for years.
810
00:32:40,262 --> 00:32:42,221
I haven't seen you in years.
811
00:32:42,264 --> 00:32:45,615
I-I haven't forgotten you.
812
00:32:45,659 --> 00:32:46,877
I think
813
00:32:46,921 --> 00:32:48,140
you and I should have a cocktail
and catch up
814
00:32:48,183 --> 00:32:49,706
so I can properly thank you
815
00:32:49,750 --> 00:32:51,926
for being my hero.
816
00:32:55,103 --> 00:32:57,279
So do tell me what
you've been up to.
817
00:32:57,323 --> 00:32:58,541
Hey.
818
00:32:58,585 --> 00:33:00,021
- Oh, geez!
- I lost control of my company
819
00:33:00,065 --> 00:33:01,066
because of you.
820
00:33:01,109 --> 00:33:02,719
So I'm not gonna forget that.
821
00:33:02,763 --> 00:33:04,547
Well, because of me, you're not
in prison, and neither
822
00:33:04,591 --> 00:33:06,201
is our mother, so maybe
you don't forget that.
823
00:33:06,245 --> 00:33:08,029
Yeah, I wouldn't
hold your breath
824
00:33:08,073 --> 00:33:09,074
waiting for my gratitude
for that.
825
00:33:09,117 --> 00:33:11,424
- Okay.
- And once I get control
826
00:33:11,467 --> 00:33:13,817
of ACI again,
I'll deal with you.
827
00:33:13,861 --> 00:33:15,384
There's only room
828
00:33:15,428 --> 00:33:17,952
for one troublemaker
in this family.
829
00:33:17,996 --> 00:33:20,346
That position's filled.
830
00:33:22,435 --> 00:33:24,654
If you're looking for Jeff,
he's not here.
831
00:33:24,698 --> 00:33:26,134
He won't be attending.
832
00:33:26,178 --> 00:33:29,050
- What? Why not? Is he okay?
- Physically, yes.
833
00:33:29,094 --> 00:33:30,530
But emotionally, he's a wreck
834
00:33:30,573 --> 00:33:33,054
because every business
opportunity has vanished.
835
00:33:33,098 --> 00:33:34,751
No one wants to work
with him anymore.
836
00:33:34,795 --> 00:33:36,231
That can't be true.
837
00:33:36,275 --> 00:33:38,755
He can't even get a meeting,
and unfortunately,
838
00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:42,063
his identity is completely
wrapped up in his career.
839
00:33:42,107 --> 00:33:44,152
He doesn't realize
there's more to life
840
00:33:44,196 --> 00:33:46,154
than being in the game.
841
00:33:48,896 --> 00:33:50,419
Not that you're like that.
842
00:33:50,463 --> 00:33:52,117
You have a...
843
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,336
rich life outside of work.
844
00:33:54,380 --> 00:33:56,077
I need some champagne.
845
00:33:56,121 --> 00:33:57,905
Stat.
846
00:33:58,775 --> 00:34:00,603
- The board and I are leaving now.
- Oh.
847
00:34:00,647 --> 00:34:01,952
We only came for the optics.
848
00:34:01,996 --> 00:34:04,520
We're meeting in the morning.
I have the votes
849
00:34:04,564 --> 00:34:09,090
to remove you as CEO. I'm sorry.
850
00:34:09,134 --> 00:34:12,050
Uh, Ellen, wait.
851
00:34:12,093 --> 00:34:16,097
The board does not
have to meet tomorrow because
852
00:34:16,141 --> 00:34:20,275
I am withdrawing my appeal,
853
00:34:20,319 --> 00:34:24,410
and stepping down as CEO, temporarily.
854
00:34:24,453 --> 00:34:26,455
This company matters more
than any of us.
855
00:34:26,499 --> 00:34:29,589
Well, I think that's
a wonderful idea.
856
00:34:29,632 --> 00:34:30,807
We'll still meet in the morning
857
00:34:30,851 --> 00:34:32,505
to formally accept
your resignation
858
00:34:32,548 --> 00:34:35,116
and choose a new CEO.Will I have any say in that?
859
00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:36,465
Not after you've stepped down.
860
00:34:36,509 --> 00:34:39,251
Oh, well, I'm still
CEO tonight, right?
861
00:34:39,294 --> 00:34:41,905
So excuse me. Dominique,
862
00:34:41,949 --> 00:34:43,820
call Jeff and tell him
I'll meet him
863
00:34:43,864 --> 00:34:45,735
at the Elevation Lounge
in 20 minutes.
864
00:34:45,779 --> 00:34:47,737
It's important. And, Liam... On it.
865
00:34:47,781 --> 00:34:50,175
You and I are having sex in
an hour, so you have 55 minutes
866
00:34:50,218 --> 00:34:51,437
to get upstairs,
do some push-ups,
867
00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:53,656
- and take your clothes off.
- Way on it.
868
00:34:59,445 --> 00:35:02,622
Look, I'm sorry
- I snapped at you.
- You're forgiven.
869
00:35:02,665 --> 00:35:04,624
But there's one more woman
you have to meet who
870
00:35:04,667 --> 00:35:06,495
we know will be
a game changer.
871
00:35:06,539 --> 00:35:08,628
And I won't take no
for an answer.
872
00:35:11,544 --> 00:35:14,068
Mama, what are you...
873
00:35:14,112 --> 00:35:16,070
You dragged her out
of the house for this?
874
00:35:16,114 --> 00:35:18,028
They didn't drag me anywhere.
875
00:35:18,072 --> 00:35:20,857
They called and told me you were
ready to settle down,
876
00:35:20,901 --> 00:35:22,903
and I couldn't get here
fast enough.
877
00:35:23,904 --> 00:35:25,862
Well, that's the plan.
878
00:35:25,906 --> 00:35:27,603
I just gotta find
the right person first.
879
00:35:27,647 --> 00:35:29,170
That's all well and good,
880
00:35:29,214 --> 00:35:30,693
but I also hear that
881
00:35:30,737 --> 00:35:33,305
you've been rejecting women
right and left.
882
00:35:34,349 --> 00:35:37,483
Who do you think you are,
Billy Dee Williams?
883
00:35:37,526 --> 00:35:39,354
Yes, he does.
But pre-Lando.
884
00:35:39,398 --> 00:35:41,313
Shut it.
885
00:35:41,356 --> 00:35:43,750
I just want what
you and Dad had.
886
00:35:43,793 --> 00:35:45,708
Is that too much to ask?
887
00:35:45,752 --> 00:35:48,494
No. But you should know that
888
00:35:48,537 --> 00:35:50,974
my marriage to your father
was far from perfect.
889
00:35:51,018 --> 00:35:54,195
He did some things that
drove me crazy.
890
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:58,895
And I suppose I did some things
that drove him crazy.
891
00:35:58,939 --> 00:36:01,637
Though his were crazier.
892
00:36:01,681 --> 00:36:03,422
- I love her.
- Yeah.
893
00:36:03,465 --> 00:36:05,511
But the point is,
if I'd had
894
00:36:05,554 --> 00:36:07,208
a list of requirements,
895
00:36:07,252 --> 00:36:10,777
I never would have
married your father.
896
00:36:10,820 --> 00:36:13,736
Which turned out to be the best
decision I ever made.
897
00:36:13,780 --> 00:36:16,086
You get what I'm saying, son?
898
00:36:17,087 --> 00:36:18,828
I get you.
899
00:36:20,482 --> 00:36:22,745
- And I love you.
- Good.
900
00:36:22,789 --> 00:36:23,877
I love you, too.
901
00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:25,879
Now, how about
buying your mama
902
00:36:25,922 --> 00:36:28,098
a fancy drink,
and maybe a Porterhouse?
903
00:36:35,628 --> 00:36:37,543
She does make
a lot of sense.
904
00:36:37,586 --> 00:36:39,588
Yeah, she does.
905
00:36:39,632 --> 00:36:41,460
And, if you're still
willing to help,
906
00:36:41,503 --> 00:36:43,592
I promise to be less picky.
907
00:36:43,636 --> 00:36:45,899
Great.
So I'll call Nina.
908
00:36:45,942 --> 00:36:47,901
Mm-mm-mm.
909
00:36:47,944 --> 00:36:49,990
Literally, anyone but Nina.
910
00:36:51,774 --> 00:36:53,167
What's the problem with Nina?
911
00:36:55,604 --> 00:36:58,041
You know what my favorite part
of the gala is?
912
00:36:58,085 --> 00:36:59,869
When it's over,
and you and I can
913
00:36:59,913 --> 00:37:02,176
go upstairs to celebrate.
914
00:37:02,220 --> 00:37:04,004
Unless you want to
slip back into the study.
915
00:37:04,047 --> 00:37:07,747
Blake Carrington, you're the
most charming man on the planet.
916
00:37:07,790 --> 00:37:09,792
And I'd go anywhere with you.
917
00:37:09,836 --> 00:37:11,141
But I'm not feeling
so great.
918
00:37:11,185 --> 00:37:14,275
So I'm gonna make myself
a cup of tea.
919
00:37:14,319 --> 00:37:16,712
But can I get a rain check
on that anywhere celebration?
920
00:37:16,756 --> 00:37:18,453
Yeah, of course you can.
It's been a long day.
921
00:37:18,497 --> 00:37:20,890
Wake me up when
you crawl into bed.
922
00:37:29,682 --> 00:37:31,118
So what's the big emergency?
923
00:37:31,161 --> 00:37:32,424
I was in my pajamas.
924
00:37:32,467 --> 00:37:36,297
I'm stepping down
as CEO as of tomorrow because
925
00:37:36,341 --> 00:37:39,213
I have some personal things
that I need to figure out.
926
00:37:39,257 --> 00:37:42,085
And also, they banned me
from the building.
927
00:37:42,129 --> 00:37:44,653
Uh, wow.
Didn't expect to hear that.
928
00:37:44,697 --> 00:37:46,264
Well, it's temporary, but,
929
00:37:46,307 --> 00:37:48,048
I heard some of the stuff
going on in your life,
930
00:37:48,091 --> 00:37:50,833
and I can relate to wanting
to get back in the game.
931
00:37:50,877 --> 00:37:53,619
Okay, now, hold up.
932
00:37:53,662 --> 00:37:55,011
Uh, I see where this is headed,
933
00:37:55,055 --> 00:37:57,144
and I'm not interested, okay?
934
00:37:57,187 --> 00:37:59,015
I said I didn't want
to be on your board,
935
00:37:59,059 --> 00:38:01,191
and I certainly don't want
- to be your charity hire.
- Oh, no.
936
00:38:01,235 --> 00:38:04,064
This is not that. My biological
corporate clock is ticking.
937
00:38:04,107 --> 00:38:06,327
I have 24 hours to
pick a new CEO,
938
00:38:06,371 --> 00:38:08,938
or they're gonna
pick one for me.
939
00:38:08,982 --> 00:38:11,289
Listen, I'm really not
in a good place right now,
940
00:38:11,332 --> 00:38:12,986
and I have my own
soul searching to do.
941
00:38:13,029 --> 00:38:14,509
Well, you can soul search
while you work.
942
00:38:14,553 --> 00:38:16,381
I need somebody
who I can trust
943
00:38:16,424 --> 00:38:18,339
to protect my baby.
944
00:38:18,383 --> 00:38:20,994
Somebody smart,
somebody bold.
945
00:38:21,037 --> 00:38:23,257
Somebody who's as crazy
as I am.
946
00:38:23,301 --> 00:38:25,912
Somebody who's family.
947
00:38:25,955 --> 00:38:28,262
And I'm really hoping
that person is you.
948
00:38:29,307 --> 00:38:31,787
This is the most insane thing
I've ever heard.
949
00:38:31,831 --> 00:38:33,746
You think Blake won't notice
the difference between us?
950
00:38:33,789 --> 00:38:35,661
He'll immediately know
it's not me.
951
00:38:35,704 --> 00:38:39,491
Honey, I'm home.
952
00:38:42,407 --> 00:38:44,757
Oh, my God.
953
00:38:47,673 --> 00:38:50,676
Oh, my God.
954
00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,242
Told you.
955
00:38:52,286 --> 00:38:53,331
How'd it go?
956
00:38:53,374 --> 00:38:55,071
Better than I expected.
957
00:38:55,115 --> 00:38:57,030
Apparently your Flores company
is even more valuable
958
00:38:57,073 --> 00:38:58,945
because Blake and I made a deal
with the governor.
959
00:38:58,988 --> 00:39:00,947
Blake and I made a deal,
you psycho.
960
00:39:02,427 --> 00:39:03,645
Can't stay long.
961
00:39:03,689 --> 00:39:06,909
Blake is eagerly waiting
for me to return
962
00:39:06,953 --> 00:39:10,739
so we can celebrate.
That should be fun.
963
00:39:10,783 --> 00:39:13,481
I don't know who you are,
but I am begging you,
964
00:39:13,525 --> 00:39:15,309
woman to woman,
965
00:39:15,353 --> 00:39:18,573
let me go home, please.
966
00:39:32,457 --> 00:39:35,285
I hope your rings fit.
967
00:39:35,329 --> 00:39:38,114
I think my hands are just
a little more feminine.
968
00:39:38,158 --> 00:39:40,726
Now, if you'll excuse me,
969
00:39:40,769 --> 00:39:44,164
I have a date in your bedroom.
970
00:39:54,479 --> 00:39:57,960
So Jeff accepted my offer,
971
00:39:58,004 --> 00:40:01,094
and Ellen accepted my assurance
that Jeff was
972
00:40:01,137 --> 00:40:03,270
the ideal candidate
to replace me.
973
00:40:03,313 --> 00:40:05,925
Jeff will be approved as CEO
until I am fully ready
974
00:40:05,968 --> 00:40:07,361
and cleared to return.
975
00:40:07,405 --> 00:40:09,407
Wow. That's a big deal.
976
00:40:09,450 --> 00:40:12,801
Well, yeah. I mean,
I almost died, Liam. Twice.
977
00:40:12,845 --> 00:40:15,500
I know.
That's a bigger deal.
978
00:40:15,543 --> 00:40:17,719
And I'm glad you're
realizing that.
979
00:40:17,763 --> 00:40:22,898
Which is why I have decided
980
00:40:22,942 --> 00:40:24,378
to take some time away
981
00:40:24,422 --> 00:40:28,991
to figure out who I am
away from Fallon Unlimited.
982
00:40:29,035 --> 00:40:33,213
And reconnect with you
on every level.
983
00:40:33,256 --> 00:40:36,695
I mean, I know that
the board meeting was a bit
984
00:40:36,738 --> 00:40:39,915
of a fiasco, but it kind of
felt like us again, right?
985
00:40:41,700 --> 00:40:43,266
This is gonna sound ridiculous,
986
00:40:43,310 --> 00:40:46,835
but seeing you drop out
of the ceiling
987
00:40:46,879 --> 00:40:48,358
to escape a rodent
988
00:40:48,402 --> 00:40:53,059
made me realize how much
I've missed having fun with you.
989
00:40:53,102 --> 00:40:55,627
I like this version of Fallon,
990
00:40:55,670 --> 00:40:59,718
and I can't wait to see
much more of her, starting now.
991
00:41:06,507 --> 00:41:10,685
Mm. I like it when you talk
about me in the third person.
992
00:41:10,729 --> 00:41:14,167
Maybe you should undress
Fallon now.
993
00:41:14,210 --> 00:41:15,777
Ooh, this is fun.
994
00:41:15,821 --> 00:41:17,605
It's kind of like we're having
a threesome.
995
00:41:21,653 --> 00:41:23,959
I am not happy.
996
00:41:24,003 --> 00:41:26,745
Yeah. You can imagine
how Fallon feels.
997
00:41:26,788 --> 00:41:28,703
I had to jump in and give
a last-minute speech
998
00:41:28,747 --> 00:41:30,226
at the gala
when you disappeared.
999
00:41:30,270 --> 00:41:32,577
Those usually take days
- to prepare.
- Blake.
1000
00:41:35,580 --> 00:41:38,060
Oh.
1001
00:41:38,104 --> 00:41:40,410
Apparently the awkwardness
between the two of you is gone.
1002
00:41:40,454 --> 00:41:41,542
You're welcome.
1003
00:41:41,586 --> 00:41:43,239
Yeah, you really
saved the day.
1004
00:41:43,283 --> 00:41:44,806
You told your father
it was awkward between us?
1005
00:41:44,850 --> 00:41:48,201
I mean, not as awkward
as it is now.
1006
00:41:48,244 --> 00:41:49,202
Please get out.
1007
00:41:49,245 --> 00:41:50,551
Happily.
1008
00:41:50,595 --> 00:41:53,772
But if you need any more
Get out!
