" You don't know where he is?" " I'm sorry, I do not." "Ugh." "My husband must have left a forwarding address." "Let me double-check his record." "You may read the summary of his stay." "It's very brief." ""Mr. Blake Carrington, United States citizen, was brought in as one of the injured survivors of the South China Sea oil rig explosion." "He was found not to be seriously hurt enough to warrant continued hospitalisation, and under the present overcrowded conditions because of the explosion, he was released." "Signed:" "Dr. R. Chen. "" "I'd like to talk to Dr. Chen." "I'm sorry, he won't be in until later this evening." "Krystle?" "Dex." "Did you find out anything?" "I talked to the shipping authorities at the docks." "They said that Alexis was brought ashore uninjured at a port near the rig, then flown here to Singapore." "Nobody has any idea where she went or what she did after that." "Anything about Blake?" "Well, he was here, then he was released." " When?" " Two days ago." "And he didn't contact you?" "Not me." "Not anyone." "Dex, I'm worried." "Let's start checking the hotels, see what we can come up with." "You know what this house and the grounds remind me of?" "That place that we had in the Greek lslands, remember?" " Oh, yes." "Our honeymoon villa in Corfu, with 93 steps to get up it." "Ha, ha, yes." "And the housekeeper, every morning, who would, uh, take an hour to climb those 93 steps," " cursing all the way." " Mm." "But at least it gave us another hour together." "Oh, this is like a second honeymoon, Blake." "Yeah." "Except that the bridegroom can't remember too much about all those years in between." "Oh, that'll pass." "Yes, it'll pass." "But when?" "Soon, Blake." "Hmm." "Maybe too soon." "Meanwhile, I don't want you to worry about anything." "We're here, we're away from the world." "I just want you to relax." "Yes, but what can you do here?" "I don't want you to just be a nursemaid to me." "Oh, I'd be a terrible nursemaid." "I faint at the sight of fainting." "I thought this would be rather a good place for me to paint." " You kept up with your painting?" " No." "Not really." "But now that I'm here with you, I suddenly thought that this would be a wonderful time to do a portrait of you." "And don't tell me that you "don't have enough time, Alexis," " I've got a company to run."" " Ha." "Well, you sure have a way of rubbing things in." "I was busy then, you know I was, very busy." "Yes, I know, but that was then, and now is now." "I really want to paint you again." "You've got such a great face for a portrait." "Strong, noble brow." "Firm chin." "Kind eyes." "You're really quite a good-looking guy." "Thank you, but I'm not sure that this is the time for portraits." "You've gotta fill me in on all those years that I've lost." " I wanna hear about the children." " No, Blake." "There's plenty of time for that later." "I'll tell you." "I promise you." "Meanwhile, let's just enjoy this beautiful morning." "Hi." "Hi, Steven." " How you feeling?" " Better, thanks." "What's that?" "A blow up of my medical chart?" "No." "It's a special delivery from a Mr. Daniel Carrington." " Oh." "He's wonderful, isn't he?" " Ha, ha." "Oh, let me see." "Oh." "How can a little kid put all these colours together so well?" "Not only is he a genius, but his pictures are getting happier every day." "Blue sky, yellow smiling sun," " flowers all bright colours." " Mm-hm." "Definite psychological improvement in the way he's thinking." "Yeah, thanks to all his therapy sessions." "That's over with." "You know, he really doesn't need therapy anymore since the two of you have gotten closer." "I'm sorry if I sounded on edge, it's just..." "It's not important." "Is it all right for you to be walking around?" "Yeah." "It's fine." "How's the baby?" "Sammy Jo, the baby's okay, isn't it?" "There is no baby, Steven." "I wasn't pregnant." "I said I was because I thought I was, but I found out it was all in my mind." "You believe me, don't you?" "Yeah, I believe you." "I know how much you wanted that baby, how much it meant to you." "And to Clay." "He must be very disappointed." "No." "He was more like angry." "He thought I was lying about being pregnant so he'd have to marry me." "Try to understand what he was feeling, at the time." "He wanted the baby, right?" "He sure did." "Well, try to understand how hurt he must have felt." "Whatever he was feeling, he walked out of here like I put a knife in him." "It's all right." "It's gonna be all right." "It's funny, we've, um, had our problems, bad ones, but somehow I think we still relate." "It's a good feeling." " I'd better get back." " Steven?" "Will you give Danny lots of hugs and kisses for me?" "And tell him as soon as I get out of here, I'll come and see him." "I will." "And, Steven," "I hope you hear some good news about Blake and Alexis real soon." "Yeah, me too." "Thanks." "Bye." "I'm sorry if I appear rude, but I'm in a great hurry." "Dr. Chen, can you tell me where I can find Blake Carrington?" "Uh, no, I can't." "He and Mrs. Carrington left the hospital together." "Mrs. Carrington?" " There must be some mistake." " Oh, I don't think so." "I'm sorry, but there's an extreme emergency and I must go." "Yes?" "All right." "All right, I'll be right there." " I'm sorry, but I really have to go now." " But, doctor" "If you need any more information, please, check the hospital register." "Dex, I talked to the doctor who treated Blake." "He said that Blake left the hospital with Mrs. Carrington." " Mrs. Carrington?" " Yes." "I checked the hospital register, it was signed by Alexis." " What?" " Alexis signed Blake out." "I know her handwriting." "Well, what the hell is going on?" "Do you have any idea?" "No." "I don't understand, why wouldn't Blake call me?" "Well, all we know is that they're together somewhere." "This is so unlike Blake." "Something's wrong." "Alexis and Blake as Mr. and Mrs. Carrington." "Well, is this the bride that couldn't boil water?" "That's right." "But I did have one specialty that you were rather keen on." " Not shepherd's pie?" " Ha, ha, that's right." "With carrots and onions and green peppers." "Covered in puree de pommes de terres, otherwise known as good old mashed potatoes." "Not exactly an Escoffier meal, but" "But a dish I used to look forward coming home to." "About, uh, once every two months, that is." "You know what I used to secretly think?" "What?" "That you didn't make those at all." "That you had Hilda Nielsen make them for you." "Ugh, Blake, that's not fair." "I always made it for you." "And Hilda Nielsen is now Hilda Gunnerson." "She's married and she has three sons." "Vikings, all." "Is she still with us?" "Yes." "She's, uh, still at the house." "Anyway, the reason that I never had too much time to spend in the kitchen was that I had children to raise." "Yes, and dresses to buy, and jewellery and furs." "Well, Blake, you were becoming so rich and successful" "I thought, "Why not?"" "Anyway, now I'm beginning to appreciate the more simple things in life." "Like cooking a simple meal for somebody that you really love." "You're very happy about now, aren't you?" "Oh, yes." "I am." " Are you?" " Well, I'm still a little confused, but it's as if, through this, I'm getting to know you again." "I'm getting to know you the way I used to years ago." "Oh, Blake, so lovely." "I'm sorry that there's still something that's keeping us apart." "Physically, I mean." "Oh, Blake, don't even think about it." "It doesn't matter." "And now, I think it's time for you to set the table, sir." "All right." "Blake." "Mm-hm?" "I wish we never had to leave this place, that this time could go on and on." "Why shouldn't it?" "No matter where we are." "Because it can't." " Good morning." " Morning, darling." "Where'd you get that newspaper?" "I wanted to keep you from worrying about the state of the world." "Well, there's nothing for you to worry about." "I'm playing a new game called" ""circle the name in the news that you recognise."" "Hmm." "The only one that I can recognise after 23 years is Paul Newman." "Wait a minute." "Wait." "No, there is something here." ""Ben Carrington and Blake Carrington."" "What does it say?" "Well, just a recap of the fire on the oil rig." "That's strange." "It says that I was taken to a hospital in Singapore and Ben taken to Hong Kong." "There's no mention of you in it." "Ha, well, that's not really so strange." "I mean, you and Ben were injured and I wasn't." "Darling, don't read that boring old paper." "Let's talk about the family." " Particularly the children." " All right." "Now, you said something to me about Adam, that he came back to us after the kidnapping." "Now, what is he like?" "What does he do?" "Well, he went to Yale." "He's a fine lawyer, Blake." "But he's a little bit of a ladies' man." "Not married, I gather." "No, he's not, but Fallon is." "Fallon?" "Married?" "Am I gonna like the man that she's married to?" "I think you're going to love him." "It's Jeff Colby." "Jeff Colby." "Fallon and young Jeff." "I know." "And they have the most wonderful son that they call L.B. after you." "Little Blake." "Our baby daughter now a wife and a mother." "It's hard to believe." "Tell me about Steven." "Ah, Steven, the boy who always had his nose in a book or who was out in the garage playing basketball." "He's tall, blond and handsome now, and he's a father too." "Which makes you a grandfather, twice over." "Well, what's he got, a son or a daughter?" "He's got a son." "An adorable little boy called Danny." "He's a wonderful father, Blake." "He's probably one of the most caring and concerned people I know." "Clay?" "Steven." "Come on in." "Uh, any word from the Orient yet?" " No." " I'm sorry." "Uh, I'll be finished in just a minute." "A couple mares that Sammy Jo ordered arrived today and I wanna complete the paperwork for her." "I'm sure she'll appreciate that." "What's that, my doing something nice for her?" "Why'd you wanna see me, Steven?" "And if it's about the baby that isn't a baby," "I'd rather not talk about it." "I would, Clay." "Why?" "Because I think you owe it to Sammy Jo to think it out." "And I think you owe it to yourself." "Arbitration doesn't really suit you, pal, not after your experiences with Sammy Jo." " After what she put you through." " Times change." "People change." "I think Sammy Jo has changed." "Look, if this is all coming down to what I'm gonna do next, I don't know." "It all happened so fast, Steven." "It hit me in the gut." "And it hit me hard." "And I don't know." "All right, that's honest enough." "But I think you should realise that Sammy Jo didn't lie about the pregnancy." "She didn't try to deceive you." "She believed in her heart that she was carrying your child." "You've got to believe that." ""Times change." "People change."" "I think you're the one that's changing, Steven." "Suddenly switching to her side." "Whatever differences we've had, there are qualities about her that I like." "She's a very good mother to Danny." "Oh, she's into motherhood, that it?" "She didn't lie about being pregnant, Clay." "She wouldn't do that." "She's got a good friend in you, Steven." "She's a lucky girl." "Now, I've listened to what you've had to say, and I even thank you for going out of your way to say it," "but I still don't know what I'm gonna do." "Welcome back, Miss Deveraux." " Thank you." " How's your daughter?" "Coming along very nicely, Gerard, thank you." "Have you heard anything from Mrs. Carrington?" "No, no word as yet." "Your suitcases are being unpacked upstairs." "And Mr. Tilden got here a little while ago, he's waiting for you in the conservatory." "Oh." " Well, hello, Miss Deveraux." " Mr. Tilden." "How did you know I was returning to Denver today?" "Ha, ha, well, I have my sources." "I'm sure you do." "I have said everything I intend to say to you, Mr. Tilden." "I want nothing to do with you or with your people." "I own the recording studio." "I don't want or need backing." "So I gathered when last we spoke." "However, "my people," as you put it, were none too happy to get the news." "I'm not surprised to hear that." "Now, would you please leave?" "No, no, no." "I don't, uh, think so." "Not until I've tried to change your mind." "It's still not too late." "Oh, yes, it is." "It's too late." "It was too late before we spoke, and now it is definitely too late." "I'm sorry you said that, Miss Deveraux." "You'll be hearing from us." "Soon." "No." "No, I haven't heard from Alexis." "Well, she told them she was Mrs. Blake Carrington, and she checked him out of the hospital." "Then that means everything's all right." "At least, Blake and mother are all right." "Well, I hope so." "But I don't understand why no one's heard from them." "Something's wrong, I" " I feel it." "Surely you weren't considering the possibility of foul play." "Anything could have happened to them." "Why wouldn't I consider it?" "Have you talked to the police about this?" "Yes." "They said it wasn't a police matter." "Krystle, they're right." "Look, I know Alexis is fine." "Well, how do you know that?" "I just feel it." "Well, you know what I think?" "I think you know more about this than you're saying." "Do you?" "Of course not." "Krystle, I wouldn't worry about this if I were you." "If there's anything going on between my parents, it can only be business." "Strictly business." ""Strictly business"?" "Do you believe that?" "Well, yes." "You trust Blake?" "Well, of course I trust him." "Krystle, in Hong Kong I asked you if you thought that Blake really loved Alexis during their marriage." "Do you remember what you answered?" "Yes." "Uh, I said I was sure that he did." "But that was years ago." "Whenever it was, they still shared things." "A house." "A bed." "Children." "Triumphs." "Tragedies." "What are you saying?" "She's a damned attractive woman, and..." "And?" "In all the time that I spent with Alexis," "I could never shake the feeling that somewhere, deep in her soul, she had never completely fallen out of love with him." "She could hate him, she could try to destroy him, but through it all she still loved him." "Dex, I know Alexis, but I also know Blake better than anyone I've ever known." "He'd never allow it to happen." "You're sure of that?" "Well, yes, I am." "No, no, no, don't move." "Sit still." "All right, you can change your position now." "Thank you." "Now, when am I gonna get to see that?" "Patience." "Renoir was slow too." "You're really enjoying that, aren't you?" "Yes." "I'd forgotten how much fun it is to paint." "I've been so busy." "Busy doing what?" "I've been looking for something called power." "But it's not all that easy to achieve." "And have you achieved it yet?" "In a way." "Gonna tell me about it?" "Some other time." "Go back to the original position, please." " "Some other time" when?" " Soon." "Like you, Blake, I want to relax." "I want to take some time to smell the flowers." "I wanna get my life in harmony." "Know when to work, and when to play." "When to do what I want to do and when to do what I have to do." "All right, that's it for now." " Ah." " It's almost finished anyway." "You know, no work of art is ever really finished." "I'm still mentally repainting pictures that I did years ago." "Hey, this is very good." " A little too flattering, but good." " No." "Thank you, sir." " Will you buy it when it's done?" " I just may do that." " How much you want for it?" " Uh, I'll settle for a hug as payment." "Hmm." "I think I made the eyes too sad." "Well, maybe that's because you saw sadness in them." "And if there is sadness that's, uh, not because of present company." "It's because of this..." "This thing." "This terrible feeling that I haven't come around yet." "I want to know more about us in past years." "I wanna know our children." "I wanna know their children." "Oh, Blake, you will." "I promise you." "But right now, I don't want this part of our lives to end." "But it has to, Alexis." "There's so much more for us to look forward to." "Believe me." "Yes." "Yes, there's so much more." " Mrs. Fallmont." " Yes?" "Um, excuse me, but what time is your husband coming to pick you up?" "I don't know." "I haven't talked to him." "Would you like me to call him?" "I'd be more than happy to." "No, thank you." "I can handle it on my own." "Okay." "On my own." "Carrington residence." "Miss Deveraux isn't at home, Mr. Kimball." "She's at the recording studio." "Is there any message?" "Oh, she'll be there for a while." "You're welcome." "Sammy Jo." "Hello, Clay." " How did you get here?" " By taxi." "I knew you were leaving the hospital today, but, uh, not this early." "What's it matter?" "Well, I was gonna come pick you up." "Well, I didn't think you could be there." "In fact, I didn't even think you'd be here." "We live here, remember?" "That's right." "We're Mr. and Mrs. Fallmont, the not-so-happy newlyweds." "Sammy Jo, you've got to listen to me, please." "I know why you're angry with me." "I never should have said the things I did at the hospital." "They're hard words to forget." "God, are they hard to forget." "I know." "But you've gotta understand." "I didn't know what I was saying." "All I knew was that you were gonna have our baby." "And that made me very proud." "Now let's get into my feelings." "I realised at first you just wanted sex from me." "Come on, that's not true." "You wanted to have sex and you wanted to keep me away from your family because you were ashamed of my background." "But then you married me." "I'd like to think that it was because you loved me, and that even if there were no baby you still would have married me." "But that isn't true, is it?" "I did love you." "I do." "I don't think so." "I want an annulment, Clay." "That's crazy." "Sammy Jo, all I want is for us to stay married and be happy." "We're strangers to one another." "I'm sorry, but I have to end this." "I'm a glum one" "It's explainable" "I met someone" "Unattainable" "Life's a bore" "The world is my oyster no more" "All the papers" "Where I led the news" "With my capers" "Soon will spread the news" "Superman" "Turns out to be a flash in the pan" "I've flown around the world In a plane" "I've settled revolutions in Spain" " Barry?" " They're on a break, Miss Deveraux." "What do you want?" "There's some people that you haven't cooperated with, and they're not happy." "Would you get out of here?" "Nick!" "Nick!" "Gerard." "Please." "Nick, thank you for driving me home." "Look, Dominique, it's over." "I mean, those creeps won't be back." "And if they try anything, there's gonna be extra security down at the studio." "I'm gonna see to that." "Thank you, Nick, I appreciate that." "Still a little shaken, huh?" "Yeah, I guess I'm a little shaky." "Come on, I'll walk you up Pike's Peak here." " You could use a friendly hand." " Yes, I could." "This is where you live." "Well, I'd better be going." "Thank you, Nick." "Yeah." "Would you like me to stay for a while?" " No, I'll be all right." " Are you sure?" "Yes." "Okay." "Bye." "A private detective?" "Yes, I think we should hire one." "Another day and we've found out nothing." "Krystle, Blake and Alexis could be anywhere in the world by now." "A private detective here in Singapore isn't gonna be of any help." "In fact, I think it's best if we fly back home and wait for news." "Hello?" "Mrs. Carrington." "It's Jeanette." "Jeanette, is everything all right?" "Oh, yes, yes, everything's fine." "I'm going to put Kristina on." "She's very anxious to talk to you." "Mommy." "Hello, my darling, how are you?" "I miss you and Daddy." "When are you coming home?" "Soon." "Soon, sweetheart." "Very soon." " Promise?" " Yes, I promise." "Now you be a good girl and you mind Jeanette." "Daddy and I send you a big hug and a kiss." "Bye, bye." "Now put Jeanette back on the phone." "See?" "She's fine, Mrs. Carrington." "She just misses the both of you very much." "Well, I miss her." " You take care of my angel." " Oh, I will." "Don't worry." " Bye-bye." " Bye." "Do we go home?" "Just give it a little more time, Dex." "I can't go home yet." "Penny for your thoughts, Blake." "Not worth that much." "How about this day?" "Beautiful isn't it?" "But then, every day's been beautiful here with you." "Hmm, yes, they've really been special days, Blake." "I hope they have for you too." "Oh, yes, yes." "They've been wonderful." "No pressure." "No business." "Just being alone here with you." "Blake..." "If anything happens to change things tomorrow or the day after or the day after that, nothing is going to erase the joy that we've shared." "What are you talking about anyway?" "Nothing is ever going to change between us." " Mr. Yong?" " Yes, Mrs. Carrington." "I understand from the concierge you wish to see me." "Uh, yes." "Please, come in." "I was told that you're the best private detective in Singapore." "Thank you." "I gather you want me to track someone down." "That's right." "Well, Singapore is a very large city." "It might take a while." "I don't care." "I don't care how long it takes." "I want you to find my husband." "His name is Blake Carrington." "Blake, are you all right?" "This damned headache again." "It's my nerves." "It's as if my nerves were shooting off in a thousand different directions." "Nothing but blurred images." "Blake, it's very late." "Why don't I get you your pills and then you can rest?" "No, no, no, not right now." "Blake, whenever you've been troubled, you've always turned to me." " Where are you going?" " I'm going for a walk." "I've gotta be alone for a while." " Is that all you've found?" " So far." "However, I think it's a good beginning." "Now, I don't know if your husband is there, but a lady from Denver, answering the description you gave me, has rented a house just outside the city." "This is her address." " Hi." " Hi." "Come on in." "I came by to thank Danny for his get-well card." "Well, there he is." "Mommy." " Danny." "Mommy, did you really like my card?" "I loved it." "It made me better than all the medicine in the world." "Isn't that good, Daddy?" "Mommy's better." "That is good, Danny." "Can I go show Mommy my fire truck?" "Sure." "Do you remember where it is?" "I think so." " Come on in." " Thanks." "What's up?" "Clay and I are getting an annulment." " I thought Clay had changed his mind." " No, I changed my mind." "Well, I'm sorry, that's not easy." "Well, it's for the best." "Steven, you did mean it when you said" "I'd be able to see more of Danny, right?" "Of course I did." "And maybe I..." "I could come with Danny out to Delta Rho and the three of us could spend some time together." "For Danny?" "Fine." " And for me." " You?" "For the part of me that needs a family." "I'd like that." "Blake?" "I told you, there's no Mrs. Colby here." "I know she's here and I wanna talk to her." " It's all right, Mai Ling." " Yes, madam." "Well, Krystle, what are you doing here?" " Where is he?" " Who?" "Oh, you know damned well who." "Blake." "I have no idea." "Why should I?" "Because I know that you checked him out of the hospital." "I've been searching all over Singapore for the two of you." "Finally, I heard that a wealthy woman from Denver rented this villa." "Yes, that's true." "I rented this house because I want to be alone." "I still do, so I'd like you to leave." "I'm going to ask you one more time, Alexis." "Where is Blake?" "I don't know." "He's certainly not in this house." "I did check him out of the hospital and then he told me he was going to Jakarta or Manila or somewhere." "Alexis, if I have to check every room in this house..." "Blake." "Oh, Blake, thank God." "Oh, thank God, I've found you." "Darling, what is it?" "Alexis, who is this lady?" "Blake, it's me." "It's me." "It's me, Blake." "You're upsetting him." "I think you should leave." "Blake, look at me." "Listen to me." "I'm your wife." "We have a daughter, Kristina." "Don't you remember?" "Look at your wallet, you always carry a picture of us." "No, there is no picture." "Tell him who I am." "For God's sake, tell him!" "What have you done to him?" "Alexis, I don't know what's going on here, but obviously you do." "Now, I don't know who this woman is, but if this is something you've designed to bring back those years that I've lost, it is not working." "What does he mean, the years he lost?" "He doesn't know who I am." "I don't know what you did, or how you did it." "I did nothing." "Alexis, if you've ever had any feelings for him, if you've ever really loved him, can't you see what you're doing to him?" "Oh, you're not gonna get away with this." "You're not." " Sorry, Mrs. Carrington, but I have to change this tire." "Is she gone?" "Yes." " Are you all right?" " No, no, no, I'm worse." "I'm confused." "That woman, there was something about her." "I don't know what it was." "Maybe her voice or her eyes, something I felt about her." "And why was she carrying on that way?" "Alexis, we've never been anything but honest with each other." "If you love me, you've gotta tell me the truth." "If I loved you?" "You'll never know how much the past few days have meant to me, Blake." "Being with you." "Loving you again." "What do you mean "again"?" "This is very difficult for me to say." "Out of that love," "I've done some terrible things." "I've lied to you." "Lied?" "How?" "That woman..." "That woman is your wife." "Hurry." "Please, hurry." "I'll only be a minute, Mrs. Carrington." "But us, what a-?" "What about us?" "Well, our marriage ended." "We had some wonderful years together and then..." "We had a few problems and we were divorced." "But why the devil did you pretend that we were married?" "Because we'd become enemies, Blake." "I wanted to get you to sign those leases over to me, to get my own back on you, but then the more time that I spent with you," "I just didn't care about them and so I just tore them up." "In the meantime, you lied about all those years that I lost?" "You kept me here." "You kept my life in limbo by lying to me." "Blake, Blake, listen to me." "You knew that it wasn't gonna help me to remember." "All I knew was that I just wanted to be with you." "I just wanted to relive some of those moments when we were happy together." "Can't you understand that?" "Understand?" "How-?" "!" "Uh..." "Krystle." "My God." "It was Krystle." "I've gotta find her." "Krystle!" "Krystle!" "Krystle!" "Krystle, I love you." "Blake, you're my life."
