"Code Blue, Three East, 204." "Code Blue, Three East, 204." "Please, we need all the room we've got." "Get these leads on." "What do we have here?" "Asystole." "She's still asystole." "Epi on board." " Pads." " Stand clear." " Clear." " Aah, Blake." "She's still straight line." "Nothing." "Again." "All right." "Move back." " Everyone, clear." "Breathe, little one, please breathe." " We've got her." "She's back." " Thank God." "Get her to icu, stat." "Stand clear, everyone." "Let's go, people." "Doctor, what is it?" "What's wrong with her?" "As far as we can tell, it looks like congestive heart failure." "We're doing everything we can, Mr. Carrington." "Who's the best heart man in this part of the country?" "Harold Chadway." "We're trying to locate him." "She'll be all right, Mrs. Carrington." "Blake, I'm frightened." "Well, they're getting the finest doctor possible, darling." "She'll be in good hands." "But she's so tiny." "She's just a baby." "Yes, but they'll pull her through." "They must." "So, Alexis, what do you think?" "So you're talking about developing this piece of property from scratch?" "Of course, I am." "That's what makes it so exciting." "Alexis, Four Crossings is development." "Energy." "This piece of property has unlimited potential." "It means years of obstacles to overcome." "Yes, but that's what Colbyco is all about." "What you are all about." " Is it?" " Yes." "I've seen you in action." "You'd thrive on the big challenge." "But then again, maybe this challenge is too big." "I'll take this deal somewhere else." "This is where you're supposed to stop me, Alexis." "And is this where you are supposed to use reverse psychology?" "Tell me that I can't do something, and I'll be the first to do it." "Why not?" "You explain it to me." "I've just handed you a development project that could be worth billions, and you're acting like it's just another deal." "Michael, I need some more time." "The time is now." "You should be jumping at this." "Don't you ever get tired of jumping?" "Look, Alexis, no matter what you're feeling right now, you let this deal slip by, and you will regret it." "Believe me." "I will take you by the hand if I have to." "We're one hour away from the property by Colbyco jet." "All I ask is that you take a look at it." "If you don't like what you see, fine." "All you've wasted is one afternoon." "All right, Mr. Culhane." "I'll take a look at it." "Dr. Taylor, extension 881." " Blake, how is she?" "Where is Krystle?" "She's in with Kristina now." "Father, what have they found out?" "Well, we've had something of a shock." "Kristina has congestive heart failure." "My God!" "Blake, I'm so sorry." "Is there anything I can do?" "Oh, no, no, thank you very much." "They don't know what caused the problem." "They've contacted the best cardiologist in this part of the country." "He's on his way here now." "Blake, you look exhausted." "I'm not gonna tell you to go home and rest, because I know you won't." "No, no, no." "I'll be all right." "Nothing for you to do here." "I..." "I thank you for coming, I think maybe it would be better if you all left." "Dr. Taylor..." "All right." "Darling, just call me if you need me." "Thank you." " Everything will be all right." " Thank you very much." "Oh, hold on for a minute, will you?" "I want to talk to you." "Steven, I don't know how much good I'm gonna be until I find out about Kristina." "I need somebody at the office, so will you take over for me until I can get back on the job?" "Absolutely, Dad." "You stay here." "Father, I..." "I'd like to help too if you'll let me, in any way I can." "Thank you, Adam." "It's good to know that I have sons I can depend on." "Can I have one of the other nurses get you something, Mrs. Carrington?" "No, thanks." "Kristina, Mommy's here with you, darling." "And Daddy." "We're both right here." "We love you so much." "Remember Cinderella, your favourite story?" "And remember when the Fairy Godmother waved her magic wand and gave Cinderella that beautiful dress?" "You remember?" "You love that story so much." "We have so many stories left to tell." "I think she can hear us, Blake." " Krystle, darling" " No, no." "They say that when somebody's unconscious if you talk to them, sometimes you can bring them back." "Look." "Mommy." "Daddy." "Oh, baby." "We're right here with you." "You're gonna be all right, sweetheart." "And we're not gonna let anything happen to you." "I promise you, darling." "It's warm in here." "Danny." "Come here." "Let me help you take your jacket off." "Oops." "Let's get this coat off." "Is Kristina gonna die?" "No." "No, Danny." "Kristina's not going to die." "I love Kristina." "I don't want her to die." "Danny, people go to the hospital to get better." "You remember, just like Mommy did." "Promise Kristina won't die?" "No, Danny, I can't promise you that." "Everybody dies sometime." "Even you and Mommy?" "Oh, no, not for a long time." "I don't want you to die." "That's okay." "Your Mommy and I are here with you." "We love you." "No matter what happens in your life, our love is always going to be with you." "Promise?" "Yes." "That I can promise you." "We both promise." "I'd better get going." "No, Mommy, stay here." "I don't know if I should." "No, Sammy Jo." "Stay." "I'll make us all something to eat." "No, I want Mommy to make her special sandwich." "Sounds good to me." "Can you sleep here too and read me some stories?" "That sounds like fun." "Come on." "Come on." "I want a huge tomato sandwich." "Lettuce, mayonnaise, and don't forget the ketchup." " How are you doing, darling?" " I'm fine." "No." "No, you're not." "No, I'm not." "Blake, how could this have happened?" "Congestive heart failure." "Maybe it's my fault." "The doctors warned me about getting pregnant after my miscarriage." " Krystle, darling, that's ridiculous." " I wanted us to have Kristina so badly." " I know." " Was that wrong?" "Was I being selfish?" "No!" "Now, listen to me." "No matter what happens, it's not your fault." "Do you understand?" "It's no one's fault." "Doctor, did you find out anything?" "She needs her rest right now, Mrs. Carrington." "She's been through a lot." "We've got to see how she does tonight." "Tonight?" "What do you mean?" "That tonight can be a critical period for your daughter." "We'll keep a very close watch on her." "Critical how?" "What are you looking for?" "Yes." "Is there something you're not telling us, doctor?" "If her EKG improves and if her lungs clear by morning, then we can run further testing." "Please, get some rest while you can." "Rest?" "How can I rest?" "I wanna know that my daughter is all right." "Believe me, we're doing all we can." "I know." "I'm sorry." "It's just that I" "It's just that you're worried and frightened." "It's perfectly normal, Mrs. Carrington." "Yes, doctor, you're right." "We are frightened." "She's our little girl." "Is there anything else that you could be doing now?" "I wish there were." "But right now, we've accomplished as much as she can stand today." "Excuse me." "Well, do we have reason to celebrate or not?" "You were right about the Four Crossings," "I'll give you that." "I'll settle for that, for now." "It's a good investment." "It makes sense." " Then we're partners?" " In this." "Yes." "Well, you see, I told you that I would raise your spirits, Alexis." "I'm good for you." "To a very long and profitable relationship." "In business." "Why confine it to business?" "We have much more in common." "Oh, do we?" "And what is that?" "Oh, great taste in companions, for one thing." "Yes, for a short afternoon flight." "But you always seem to think that you know what I need." "Yes, I do." "Not even I know what I need." "But I'll tell you what." "When I do, I'll send you a nice box of chocolates." "Oh, no, I hate chocolates." "But I will stick around." "Just in case you change your mood." "pilot We'll be landing in Denver in 10 minutes, Mrs. Colby." "Are we still on for dinner?" "Oh, yes." "Yes, I, heh, don't seem to have any other plans." "WOMAN Dr. Kelly to OR." "Dr. Kelly to OR." "Father." "Oh, Adam." "Hello, Dana." "We wanted to stop by and see how you were." "Can I bring you anything?" "No, no, no." "We're having some clothes sent over from the house." "How is Kristina?" "She's sleeping comfortably." "And Krystle?" "She's tired." "But she's holding up." "So am I." "You know, I haven't seen you to talk to you since you made that announcement of the engagement." "I wanted to tell you how happy I am for you both." " Thank you." " Thank you." "You, young lady, you happen to be one of my favourite people." "I'm so proud to have you in the family." "Thank you, but we don't want you thinking about us right now." "Why not?" "You're my children too, aren't you?" "Now, look, you deserve your happiness." "And I want you to make your plans." "Don't let anything stop you." "Kristina is going to pull through." "I know it." "Yeah." "I guess I'd better go back and see Krystle." "You know, your father is quite a man." "He's gonna be your father too, you know." "I wonder." "Now, what's that supposed to mean?" "I don't know." "Just sometimes the things you want most in life, you can't ever have." " Dana." " I mean it." "I have spent so many years thinking about you and thinking that you would never even talk to me," "let alone love me, Adam." "I do love you." "Then let's not wait." "As soon as Kristina's out of danger, why don't we just run away and do it?" " I mean, no big wedding." " We can't." "We can't." "Dana, I've already promised Mother that she can plan the wedding." " And she's so excited, ha, ha." " Oh, is she really?" "Well, she hasn't phoned me, she's made no attempt to welcome me into the family, Adam." "I think she's stalling for time." " Why would she do that?" " Well, I don't know." "Maybe she's hoping that between now and then, she'll think of some way to split us up." " Oh, that's not fair." " I know what Alexis is capable of." "She's changed." "Adam." "Please, let's not wait." "I'm afraid that if we don't do it, it will never happen." "Oh, my darling, Dana." "Our getting married in the mansion, in the house I was born in, is very important." "I've already promised her." "Hey, you couldn't love a man who broke his word, could you?" "Come here." "Okay, Dad, give our love to Krystle." "Bye." "Still no change in Kristina." "How did Blake sound?" "Like he was going through hell." "Look at him." "If anything happened to Danny..." "I don't know how they're getting through this." "We're all gonna get through it." "Before you know it, Kristina and our little cowboy here are gonna be chasing each other all over the ranch." "I hope so." "But in the meantime, he's got some dreams to chase in bed." "There we go." "Good night, champ." " You look tired." " I am." "But tonight is my night on the couch." "No way." "Come on." "Last time, you said we'd switch." "I changed my mind." "I like sleeping on the couch." "It's, uh, like exercising all night." "All right." "I'm too tired to fight you." "Good night, Steven." "Good night, Sammy Jo." "Dear God," "Kristina has so much love here, she's needed so much." "Don't take her." "Please let her live." "Oh." "Thank you." "What do you see in those tea leaves?" "Your future?" "Oh." "When you've lived the life I've lived, you learn not to worry about the future." "Actually, I was thinking about Krystle." "What she must be going through at this time." " Now, that I can't even imagine." " I can." "You see, I almost lost Jackie once." "I know that feeling of panic and frustration." "I hate to feel powerless." "Jackie made it." "It was a hell of a fight, but she made it." "Kristina will too." "If that child doesn't make it, I don't know if Krystle will make it." "She's a strong lady." "Dex, when you're a parent, when your child's life is threatened, you feel your life is threatened." "Kristina is the only child that Krystle will ever have." "If anything happens to Kristina..." "Well, well, well." "This may not be as private, but it certainly beats the trailer, doesn't it, Dominique?" "I'm warning you, Alexis." "Please, not tonight." "Heh, heh, why not tonight?" "It looks like it's just a repeat of all your other nights." "You haven't heard about Kristina." "What about Kristina?" "Kristina is in the hospital." "Blake and Krystle are with her." "What's wrong with her?" "She collapsed." "There's something wrong with her heart." "Her heart?" "Oh, God!" "Oh, Blake must be in agony." "I have to see him." "Dr. Hill to Admissions." "Dr. Hill to Admissions." "Dr. Cleveland, extension 891." "Blake." "Oh, Blake, I just heard about Kristina." "How is she?" "She's being monitored right now." "We're waiting on some tests." "When my mother had her heart problem, we had that wonderful doctor, Rushton, who was so brilliant in her treatment." "I could call him." "Well, there's no need." "We have a top man now." "Dr. Chadway." "But thank you very much for thinking about us." "Blake." "I've, uh, made arrangements for us to spend the night." "Oh, Krystle." "I'm so sorry." "Is there anything I can do?" "No, thank you." "I'd like to be alone with Blake right now, so if you'd just leave." "I came over as soon as I heard." "Why?" " Darling, she only wanted" " I'd like to know why, Alexis." "Well, because I'm a mother too." "And Kristina is Blake's child." "You don't care about Kristina." "You never bothered with her, never asked about her." "Krystle, darling." "You're tired." "Come on." "Let's go back." "Please, just leave us alone." "Oh, Krystle." "Krystle, I know what you're going through." "But believe me, I have nothing against your little girl." "And what's changed?" "You obviously had something against my first child." "I've lost one child because of you." "I don't want you near Kristina." "I know what you're going through." "Believe me, I'd never harm Kristina." "You've harmed everyone I've ever loved." "Blake, tell her to go." "Alexis, it might be best if you left now." "Of course." "God, all I want to do is help." "I still do." "This is Mrs. Colby." "I'd like you to send somebody up for my bags in about five minutes." "Thank you." "Adam, I've given instructions at the Mirror, and I'm counting on you to take charge at Colbyco." "Of course, Mother." "What's going on?" "Oh, darling, it's not a sudden urge." "I just want to see Jeff and Fallon and the new baby." "You're racing out of here as if any second, they're gonna close the border." "Darling, I don't have to explain everything I do to you." "You're the last person I'd expect to explain her actions." "But this is simply not like you." "It's exactly like me." "I always do things on impulse." "I can take care of myself." "Yes, I know you can." "But if you need anybody, just someone to talk to, promise me you'll call." " Collect?" " Anytime." "Safe trip." "Dr. Adams, extension 547." "Dr. Adams, extension 547." "Leslie." "I wasn't sure I'd see you here." "I'm here to see Kristina." "I think they'd rather be alone right now." "You're right." "I'll come back later." "What are you afraid of?" "Nothing." "Then why are you running away?" "I said I'm coming back later." "When I'm not here, you mean?" "This has nothing to do with you." "Then why are you running away?" "You should know." "You're the expert on running away." "Leslie." "When you were little and you got angry with me, you remember the rules?" "To sit across the table and talk it out with Daddy." "It was a terrific game." "But the kid grew up." "There's no more tooth fairy, no more kiss and forgive, and no more table." "There is at Blake's house, Leslie." "Krystle asked you to come and stay with us." "Won't you?" "Well, I thought about it." "And I don't think there's room enough for both of us in the same house." "What's really the matter, Leslie?" "Are you afraid that you might grow to love me again?" "Yes, uh, this is Clay Fallmont." "I'd like to speak with my wife, please." "She's not there?" "When do you expect her back?" "She's been gone all night?" "I see." "Uh, well, you tell her, if she gets back, that I'll be dropping by later today." "Thank you." " Good morning." " Morning." " Morning, Mommy." " Good morning." "Steven, I love this sweat suit." "I just wish it fit me." " Well, it will when you grow up." "Ha, ha." "You have enough pancakes here to feed an army." "Want some, Mommy?" "Hmm, no." "I'm just going to have some coffee." "I phoned the hospital first thing this morning." "There's still no change in Kristina." "Daddy, can I stay home from nursery school, please?" "Just this once?" "Why do you want to do that?" "I want to go to the ranch and ride Valez." "Please?" "Just this once?" " Can he ride Valez?" " No, not yet." " Please?" " Danny, I'll tell you what, if your daddy says it's okay, I'll take you out to the ranch and let the groom walk you on Valez." "Okay?" "Can I, Daddy?" "All right." "Just for today." "Thanks, Daddy." "I'll go get my boots on." "Steven, I want you to know that I liked being here last night." "Well, I'm glad you stayed." "Especially at a time like this, with Kristina in the hospital." "It's good to be together as a family." "Hmm, Oh, what about other times?" "Why do we need a crisis?" "Why can't we just live together as a family?" "Having a family means everything to me, Sammy Jo." "But nothing's going to change the way we are." "Well, let's forget about us for a second." "Think about Danny." "He needs to have his father." "He needs both of us." "And what about you?" "What about your needs?" "You're a beautiful young woman, and you deserve a man who can love you the way I can't." "All I care about right now is Danny's happiness." "Are you sure?" "Danny's happiness and yours." "Look at me, Sammy Jo." "I'm the same man, I haven't changed." "Steven, all I'm asking is that we be together." "We need each other." "And whatever happens or doesn't happen, can't we at least try?" "Think about it." "Excuse me." "So Leslie agreed to move into the house, huh?" "Well, in her own way, she agreed, yeah." "I'm very happy for you, Ben." "I think she accepted the invitation more as a challenge than anything else." "That doesn't matter, not now." "Keep her close to you for as long as you can, Ben." "Before you know it, we'll all be back at the house, your daughter and mine." "But what about now?" "I'd like to be of some help to you, but I really don't know how." "No, thanks." "Nothing you can do here." "But I could use you down at the office to work with Steven." "As a matter of fact," "I'd like you to sit in on a couple of meetings for me," " if you would." " Of course." "Good." "What if something comes up?" "Some question or problem?" "You'll handle it, I'm sure." "All right." "Your trust means a great deal." "I won't disappoint you." "Oh, no, I won't have any." "Thank you." "Alexis, you've been to the hospital, you've checked in on Fallon." "And she and the baby are recovering." "We know they're doing everything they can for them." "Why else did you come to Los Angeles?" "I know that it has to be more than being worried about Fallon and the baby." "I'm not worried about anything, Jeff." "I just felt like getting away for a while." "Well, how long is "for a while"?" "A few days." "A week." "Maybe a month." "Come on, you know who you're talking to you here?" "I've known you since I was a boy." "I remember giving you a gardenia when you were leaving Denver," "I was afraid I wasn't going to see you again." "I will never forget that." "I will always love you for it." "And I've always loved you for yourself." "I can read you like a book." "I know when you're down." "Right now, you're down." "And I want to know why." "Hello, Alexis." "Michael." "What on earth are you doing here?" "Well, I contacted your office." "They told me I'd find you here." " Jeff." " Hello, Michael." "I don't mean to interrupt your lunch, but I have been worried about you." "Really?" "And is that why you followed me to Los Angeles?" "I felt you could use having a friend around." "That's very, very sweet of you but I don't need any friends." "I have my family here." "Well, if it should turn out that family isn't enough," "I've checked into your hotel." "So you call me if you need me, okay?" "Nice seeing you again, Jeff." "I knew there was something." "He said you needed a friend." "I don't know what he meant by that." "If you need a friend, you've got me." "Stay away from him." "He's trouble." "Jeff, I know that." "Now, look, I came to California to enjoy the sunshine, so why don't we?" "Why don't we take a nice long walk?" "Ha, ha, I'm English." "I was born to walk." "I'd love it." " Mr. and Mrs. Carrington?" "Yes?" "I was hoping for better results from the echocardiogram..." "What were the results?" "I'm afraid there's been a severe weakening of Kristina's heart muscle." "I think the next step should be a heart biopsy." "Oh, my God!" "A biopsy?" "The child is only 3 years old, doctor." "How much can she take?" "I understand your fears, Mr. Carrington, but we're not talking surgery here." " Not yet." " Then what are we talking about?" "It's a relatively simple procedure." "Through a very small incision, we insert a catheter through her leg, and then we obtain a bit of heart muscle." "Is she conscious through this procedure?" "No, she has a local anaesthetic, Mr. Carrington, but the procedure works better if she's both conscious and able to cooperate." "It's much safer that way." "But she'll be terrified." "I promise you, she won't feel any pain." "Just a bit of discomfort." "But I think it would be better if you were there to hold her hand, to reassure her." "We'll both be there." "Mrs. Carrington, I think it would be better if only your husband were there." "No, I'm going to be there too." "I can handle it." "Well, Mrs. Carrington" "Doctor, if my wife says she can handle it, she can." "Is it going to hurt?" "A little bit, darling." "Just a little bit." "What are they gonna do?" "They're gonna find out why you don't feel well, sweetheart." "We're inserting the catheter now." "You're doing great, Kristina." "You take good pictures." "Demerol, 7 milligrams." "Phenergan, 15 milligrams, lV push, now." "Kristina, I want you to take a couple of deep breaths." "Can you do that?" "That's my girl." "You're going to feel something like a little sting." "Mommy!" "It's all right, sweetheart." "I'm right here." " Squeeze my hand real tight." " I am." "Kristina, you're going to feel a little pinch in your chest." "Won't hurt, hold perfectly still." "We got it." "Mommy!" "It's all over now, darling." "It's all over." "When I was a kid, my father used to drive us to this beach in Devon." "Every vacation." "The whole family absolutely adored it." "Except me." "I was always freezing cold." "I used to imagine I was in this place I'd read about called California." "It had this blue ocean." "Had these wonderful palm trees and balmy breezes, and I was so happy there, ha, ha." "And now here I am." "With one of my favourite people in the world." "Well, it sure is a nice place." "It's also a nice place to talk too." "Oh, I think I've talked enough." "Oh, come on, now." "What is it?" "What's bothering you?" "Oh, Jeff." "I think I'm getting tired of not being able to get involved in a relationship with a man." "What do I have to do to have a warm and loving partnership?" "Become a 19th century woman?" "Ha, ha, I don't think that would become you." "You mean, because I'm so strong and powerful-?" "As a matter of fact, I think you are." "Well, yes, I am." "But you know there's another side of me." "I don't want to end up alone." "Well, you have four children who love you and you love them very much." "Hmm, thank goodness." "But as for having nothing else, I guess I do sympathise with you." " What do you mean?" " Here you are, this poor lady who runs a conglomerate, a major newspaper of over a million readers a day, whose big decision is whether or not to fly the big jet or the little jet." "Those are tough decisions." " You are not taking me seriously." " I am taking you seriously." "I mean, life has been rough." "We're talking about a woman whose life is so empty she could probably write the definitive book on caviar, a doctorate on champagne, has a Rolls Royce to colour-coordinate with whatever she happens to be wearing that day," "and also probably happens to be one of the smartest women in this country." "Jeff." "What I'm really saying is that if you need a friend, I'm here." "I know." "I've come to the right place and the right person." "You got it." "You know what I do have, Jeff?" "I have you, I have Fallon." "And a wonderful family." "I'm really very, very lucky." "Well, there's one other thing." "What?" "You're cute." " So are you." " Ha, ha." " And rich." " Ha, ha." "Daddy." "Daddy." "You should have seen me and Valez together today." "I'll bet you looked just like the Lone Ranger, huh?" "I did." "I did." "Hey, Danny." "Let me ask you something:" "What would you say if you and I moved in with your mommy for a little while?" "Why not for always?" "Well, we'll be a family always, but living here permanently, I don't know." "We'll just have to wait and see." "What do you think you're doing?" "Would you go get that small bag that I left in the car, please?" "Okay." "Hi, Clay, bye, Clay." "What do you want, Clay?" " You don't waste any time." " What are you talking about?" "I am talking about you, uh, moving in on Sammy Jo." "Is that clear enough for you?" "Whether you like it or not, Danny needs both of us right now." "And being at Delta Rho makes the most sense." "Is that what he needs?" "Or what you need?" "We're talking about Danny, remember?" "No, I don't think so." "I think we're talking about you." "And you using your son to take Sammy Jo away from me." "Nobody took her from you." "You lost her." "She needed you and you turned your back on her." "And what can you give her except promises you can't keep?" "Clay, what are you doing here?" "Don't worry, Sammy Jo." "I just came by to get my things." "Well, I'll pack them and have them sent to you, okay?" "Yeah." "Whatever you want." "Sammy Jo, if you think this is gonna work out, you are headed for disaster." "I love you." "I don't want to see that happen to you." "Dr. Chadway said he was so proud of you." "And then you know what he said?" "What?" "He said that you are the bravest little girl he's ever seen." "Really?" "Really." "And Mommy and Daddy are proud of you too, darling." "I love you, Daddy." "I love you, Mommy." "Then I have everything I could ever want because I love you too, darling." "Daddy and I love you more than anything in the whole world." " Hi, Kristina." "Kristina:" "Hi, doctor." "Mr. Carrington, Mrs. Carrington," "I'd like to see you in the consultation room." "Yes, of course." "Be back in a minute." "Sit down, please." "I have the biopsy results." "Kristina's suffering from a virus infection of the heart muscle." "Acute viral myocarditis." "What does that mean?" "Kristina's heart has been attacked by a virus." "The muscles have been weakened." "Well, that can be treated, can't it?" "There's already been a drastic deterioration of the heart muscle and unfortunately, it's increasing at an accelerated pace." "What are you saying?" "Are you saying that our daughter could die?" "Are you?" "Yes." "Unless we can find her a new heart."
