"And over there, the isles, Capri and Ischia." "What beauty." "What beauty."" "And then he'd look at ME, he'd look at ME" "come on, now, listen to ME." "And he'd look at ME, and he'd get this incredible look on his face." "I mean sheer disgust." "And then he'd say," ""here in NEW York, you go down to the water and What do you see?"" "That's it, you'rE coming around." ""What do you see?" "over there, staten island and over there, NEW jersey, and over there, cazzo, a 150-foot green woman, senza culo.""

"listen." "Shall WE go inside and have a drink together while WE talk?" "Sorry, no vodka." "Not even any hemlock." "WEll, this isn't a social Call anyway." "So Why don't WE get right down to business." "blake Wants to buy the studio from you." "And take up painting himself?" "No, andrew." "tell him no." "alexis, he's Willing to offer you a lot." "I'M not interested." "I'vE got all the money I need." "besides, I rather Enjoy the simple life." "marie antoinette in her petit Trianon?" "And Who has no intention of having her head dumped in a basket again." "come on, alexis." "You have no real reason to stay here," "except maybe to... gadfly for a while." "You'vE done your damage." " Oh, no, you'rE Wrong, andrew." "I have an excellent reason for staying here." "I aM here to protect My son's interests." "WEll, if that's true, I'd take blake's offer if I were you." "At least your son Will get that much." "What are you talking about?" "steven's interests." "HE wanted no part of blake." "So his father just accommodated him." "blake Cut him out of his Will." "welcome, Mrs. BlaisdEl." "nice to have you back." " Who are you?" "I aM Dr. AMErigo NiCholas FranCEsCo TosCanni." "My mama Calls ME AMErigo."

"It's gonna Work out, believe ME." "You look terrible." "You like I feel, lousy and tired." "But then, Why shouldn't WE?" "I mean, WE had quite an hour back there at your home." "I saved your life, Mrs. BlaisdEl." "AM I supposed to thank you?" "yes, that Would be very nice." "I wanted to die." " That's obvious." "You know, there are better Ways to solve problems than burial." "get some more sleep." "And, believe ME, you'll sleep well." "I never heard of that before." "heard of What?" "A bathtub in a kitchen in an apartment." "WEll, it Was true." "That's where it Was." "You know, I remember when I Was a kid," "momma Would throw us into the bathtub, uno, due, tre, splashing out every night after dinner, and I'd say to her" "one time I said, "Why do I have to take a bath every single night?"" "And she said, "well, so you'll be clean in case the angels come to get you."" "But then as WE got older, bigger, things got different."

"Oh, you Can send this one directly to ME." "Thank you." "You know, it's funny, blake." "I'vE been on Call now What, three Months?" "whenever your players needed psyChing up." "yet I'vE never been inside your house." "I mean, home." "nice place you got here." "now, are you ready to tell ME What this is all about?" "You drag ME from My office to pump an overdose out of a lady's stomach, then bring her back here for a little R and R." "All that Without an Explanation." "You Could'vE called an ambulance." "I'M a psychiatrist, not an intern." "You'rE a doctor." " And a damned good one." "You should know." "You hired ME." "All right." "That woman upstairs, nick." "I care about her." "I Was thinking about her." "Trying to shelter her from this." "I Could have rushed her to an emergency room in a hospital, but the newspaper and television people" "Would have swarmed all over her." "To say nothing about blake Carrington's reputation either." "ThE witness he drove to a suicide attempt." "So MuCh for motives." "I'll phone you about her later tonight." " No, no, WE'll talk about it right noW." "come on, you'vE got a couple of minutes." "Go." "Shoot." "I know that you'll not file a police report." "But Will she do it again?"

"get yourself another boy." "nick." "whatever you'vE read in the newspaper about that woman only touches the surface." "What you don't know is she's already had one breakdown, spent a year in a sanitarium." "If it's a question of money..." "Oh, please, blake." "now, I likE the stuff nearly as much as you do." "But I Work for it." "I don't get bought." "I'M sorry." "are you all right?" " yeah." "Mrs. Carrington." " yes." "I'M sorry." "I'M doctor TosCanni." "nick TosCanni."

"I mean, that is What phone extensions are for." "You and I both know Why your father fired him." "please." "If there's one thing I don't need, it's for you to play mother to ME." "I Was thinking of your father." "HE's already been through his nightmare." "And it's up to both of us to make life easier for him." "something like that." "something like that." "And What are you planning to do, KrystlE?" "In thE daylight hours, that is?" "WEll, I don't know if he or she Will be born during the day." "Don't tell ME you'rE going to try and have a baby to hold on to him." "I don't have to try." "You'rE pregnant?" " more than a little bit." "Hi." "Why'd you phone ME to meet you here?" "WEll, I thought WE'd have a picnic." "I brought some Cold chicken, some pate, and, let's see, What else?" "A jar of olives." "black." "very good for picnics." "A picnic." "At night and at a motel?"

" So where were you conceived?" "I don't know." "steven told ME that Mrs. GunnErson once told him that WE were both put together on the orient express." "WEll, Mrs. GunnErson reads a lot of strange books." "are you serious about that?" "About us having a baby?" " how about right noW?" "What's so funny?" " Oh, I Was just thinking." "WE Can even register in our own names." "WE'rE legal now." "Hi, steven." "Why, hello." "I wanted to Cook you something special tonight." "A real hoME-CookEd meal." "But since I Was always a fiasco in the kitchen," "I had this catered from JEnsEn's." "Looks rather good, doEsn't it?" "yes, it does." "Your landlady let ME in." "Was that all right?" "Of course." "WEll, here you go." "I called the refinery today and someone said that you WErEn't Working there anymore." "I quit." "I decided to look for another job." "WEll, that's understandable." "You Can't exactly relish Working for your father after you walked out on him." "WEll, steven, that's Why I'M here." "I Want you to patch things up With blake." "I Can't." " You mean you Won't." "then I Won't." "Look, I'vE always had this lovE-hatE thing going With him." "And hate Won out." "I didn't Want it to happen that Way." "But it happened." "steven, take some advice from your mother." "I hated him too." "And for years I refused to forgive him." "And then finally that day in Court I got What I wanted, but it Was a hollow little victory and I really didn't get anything." "So learn from My mistakes." "Don't hate, steven." "Don't hate blake." "Don't hate anyone." "besides, one doEsn't just abandon one's birthright." "DEnvEr-Carrington is going to be yours one day." "I don't care about DEnvEr-Carrington." "WEll, you'vE got to care." "You'vE got to." "I mean, you'rE young now, so you don't care, but in ten years, in 15 years, you Will." "make up With him, steven, otherwise everything is going to go to your sister." "she Can have it." "she's his daughter." "Look, do WE have to keep talking about this?" "steven." "What if someone were to tell you that you were blake's only Child?" "What do you mean only Child?" "Just that." "What about Fallon?" "are you two such enemies you'rE trying to deny her?" "Of course not." "I'M her mother." "It's her father I'M talking about." "I don't get it." "Is this a game of yours?" "Is this a tactic of some kind you'rE using on ME?" "I love you, steven." " It is for the money?" "For you?" "Is that the only important thing in your life?" "I just said it." "I love you." "You'rE My son and I love My son." "I'd cripple this hand and never paint again just to show My son how much I love him." "And that's all I'vE got, apart from you." "It's not" " It's not true." "Fallon is his daughter, and she's My sister." "Of course." "Of course she's your sister." "Through ME." "let's have some more champagne." "WE'll talk about this later." "Not later, not ever." "Look, I'M not hungry." "I don't Want any of this stuff." "And What you say about Fallon, I don't buy it." "Any of it." "Buy it or not, darling, it's true." "blake is not Fallon's father." "I should know." "TosCanni." "hey, little sister, how are you?" "where have I been?" "WEll, Would you buy this?" "inside blake Carrington's house finally." "terry, lay off ME, damn it."
