Dynasty (2017) s04e14 Episode Script

1
Previously on Dynasty That private airline?
I bought it, and I'm
giving it to you.
Nolan Jamison.
You're working on something big
in the area
of fuel-efficient
energy sources.
Next time you want to hire
an organized crime boss,
a little heads-up
would be nice.
Whenever I've needed you,
you've been there.
You're like a daughter to me.
Maybe it's time Colby Co.
gets in the fashion game.
We don't have days to get this
tumor out, we have hours.
She's barely got a pulse.
Call 911. Kirby!
Which do you want first,
the good news or the bad news?
Good news. That way,
when you tell me the bad news,
I can remember when I was happy
because of the good news.
Okay, the good news is No, wait.
Maybe I should hear
the bad news first
so that I can have something
to look forward to.
-Can I change my answer?
-No. This isn't at game show.
The good news is, after
two weeks in the hospital,
the doctors have decided
that Kirby is strong enough
to go home later today.
That's great.
What's the bad news?
We have to tell her
about Anders.
Right.
That's definitely bad.
And we have to
do that today?
Well, first we said
we'd tell her he died
after she woke up
from the coma.
Then we said that,
you know, we'd wait
until she was more alert
so she'd understand.
And then we said we'd wait
till she was off meds,
so it didn't seem
like a dream.
And then we said we'd tell her
the day she was discharged.
Which is today.
Yeah.
Morning.
I feel refreshed
and ready to go.
Turns out
a medically induced coma
is the best sleep
a gal can get.
You don't need to look
so worried.
We don't?
I feel good. This has been
a huge wake-up call.
And hospitals suck;
I really don't want
-to come back here.
Yeah.
Twice in one year.
I don't want to have
to visit you here again, either.
You won't. Oliver,
the drugs, partying,
it's all in the past.
We're just happy
you're okay.
Yeah, we are.
Um you know,
the past few weeks
have been
they've been tough.
And, uh, we--
We have to tell
you something.
Your brain
is grossly normal.
-Is that good news?
-It's excellent news.
Dr. Scott removed the tumor
from the brain stem.
There-There's still
some swelling,
but I have no reason
to believe
that you won't make
a full recovery.
Oh, thank God.
Of course, you'll need
periodic scans,
but as of right now,
I'm happy to say
you're cancer-free.
Thank you, son.
This is the news that I, um
that we needed to hear.
It's been a tough
couple of weeks
between losing Anders and
Don't you ever scare me
like that again.
It wasn't exactly fun
for me, either.
Which is why this calls
for something special.
I say we start with
a celebratory meal.
Anywhere you want.
The world's your oyster.
-Ooh, seafood does sound good.
-Done.
Okay, I have to go.
Board meeting.
I'm impressed
with how you're handling
the chief of staff job.
Now I know what it feels like
to be a Jewish mother.
This place is gonna be
world-class under me.
Lofty goals.
But I would expect nothing less
from the man who performed
my wife's brain surgery.
I only assisted Dr. Scott.
You were the one who insisted
on not waiting
for Dr. Scott to get here.
You saved my life.
According to this report,
online sales for Dom-Mystique
are sluggish at best.
Everyone wants to be
an overnight success,
but it takes time to build
a solid company-- be patient.
Don't talk to me about patience.
I've waited to feel this
passionately about something
my entire life.
Fine.
So what do you think
the problem is?
Our marketing strategy.
We need a new plan.
Maybe billboards.
No, we're not doing billboards.
All right, people blow past
those things
at 80 miles an hour.
And you need more than
four seconds
to connect with your customer.
But right now,
I need to set a meeting
with Korosh Patel.
Does he know anything
about selling clothes
at affordable prices?
If not, why are we
talking about him?
He's the leading mind
in renewable energy.
Which is why I need
to convince him to work for me
And since when is Colby Co.
into renewable energy?
Since I'm trying to make it
a more eco-conscious business.
Any more questions,
or can I go?
You can go.
But I don't like that tone.
Or these numbers.
-Don't forget the billboards.
-No billboards!
Please have a seat,
Dr. Carrington.
Yes. While I have the chairman
of the board to myself,
I would like to run
a few ideas by you
before the others arrive.
-No one else is coming.
-Oh, perfect.
Not really, because
we have a problem.
There are rumors
that you threatened
the hospital's head of finance
in order to obtain funding
for one of your projects.
Rumors? Come on. If--
If somebody said
that I threatened Karen,
it's obviously
a misunderstanding.
-I'll-I'll talk to her.
-Well, she quit,
and moved her ailing sister
to another hospital.
She claims it was
for better care,
but I'm skeptical.
I'm sure this is just
a typical Karen overreaction.
Look, I'm going to be
straight with you.
You're barely holding onto
the chief of staff position,
Dr. Carrington.
And if it weren't for
your last name,
you wouldn't be holding on
to anything at all.
Excuse me, I just performed
a cutting-edge brain surgery.
Which was against
hospital policy
as the patient is
a relative of yours.
Plus, you're not
a neurosurgeon.
And if Dr. Scott hadn't
arrived when she did,
who knows what
would have happened?
Now, this'll be your first
and your last warning.
You have any questions,
Dr. Carrington?
Did we really need this big
a refresh in here?
I mean, are you bored
because Liam is off
in some cabin writing?
'Cause it's feeling
a little O-T-T.
You think this is
over-the-top?
I wanted to bring in
a four-poster bed
with lace curtains.
Poor Kirby.
I hope she's not
too depressed.
Telling her about Anders
was rough.
Telling her about
Anders was rough?
You mean when I told her
and you sat there and watched?
Of course she's
gonna be depressed.
I mean, she missed
her father's funeral.
Wait, I hear them.
I hear them. Come here.
Hi, guys. Wow.
It looks great in here.
I love the new blanket!
One of Oprah's
favorite things.
Well, it's all so
soothing.
Yeah, well, you know, it's
the least I could do after, um,
after, uh, you know, the
After everything that happened.
You need anything else
before I go?
And remember what I said,
take it easy
-and let people help you.
-I'm good.
I have everything I need.
There is something I need.
-That was quick.
-Oh.
Well, I can't sit around
and mope
about my dad all day.
He would have hated that.
And I'll go crazy.
So I need a job.
A modeling job, to be specific.
Do you think
that's a good idea?
Work will help me deal
with the stress,
and I don't want to lose
-the momentum I had.
Right.
Um, okay.
Uh, well, I'll make some calls.
I'll talk to some
editors, but first,
I want to give you a few weeks
to reacclimate, you know,
and then we'll get you
back out there.
No, I already know
which job I want.
I want to be one of
the ten models on the catwalk
at the upcoming
Designer Institute Ball.
The theme is celestial bodies,
and, well, I think I have one.
You do, but what kind
of ball is this?
Some sort of
Cinderella fantasy?
It's the most high-profile
fashion event in Atlanta.
Yes, yes, I know it well.
I go every year.
Well, great. So you call
the head of the institute.
Paloma something?
Paloma Benioff and I
actually co-chaired
the Atlanta Art Walk
together one year.
Yeah. She puts ice
in her rosé.
Anyway, that night's
a crazy circus
of, you know, paparazzi,
posers and partying.
So it's really not the right
thing for you right now.
Well, would you rather
I stay in bed all day
feeling sorry
for myself?
Uh, okay,
I will give Paloma a call,
but I really can't make
any promises.
Thanks. This is exactly
what I need.
This and a sandwich.
And some ice cream.
Hospital food's
really terrible.
Well, she's definitely
not depressed,
but she's in serious denial.
I mean, she clearly doesn't want
to face reality.
But if we push her
to face reality,
it could shatter her
if she's not ready.
I have done some research
on this, and smothering
actually doesn't help much
either, so it's tricky.
We need to call a therapist.
Did you not just hear
what I said about research?
We don't need a therapist, okay?
I got this.
Somehow that doesn't make me
feel any better.
I heard that.
Paloma, you're looking well.
Do people ever call you "Plum"?
No. We're both very busy women.
Why don't we skip
the small talk, Fallon?
Great. Because I was out
of material anyway.
A friend of mine,
who just happens to be
a fantastic model,
would make a great addition
to the group for the ball.
Her name is Kirby Anders.
Never heard of her.
She's an up and comer.
She's beautiful.
And I know that you are
the person to see
if strings need to be pulled.
We book these models
a year in advance
because of
their busy schedules.
Because they're supermodels,
not super-new models.
Right. No, I got that.
But I appreciate
your casual bluntness.
How about this? What if
you put her last in the lineup?
You know, everybody will be
seven chardonnays deep
at that point, and they won't
even notice when she comes out
that she's not Bella Hadid.
Well, I could consider that
if you'd consider giving up
your regular dinner table
at the Four Seasons
every Saturday.
But it's the best table
in the restaurant.
Which is why I'm asking.
Hmm. Sure.
Yeah, it's yours.
Kirby will be thrilled,
and, technically,
wherever I sit is
the best table.
Oh, I need you to hire
a new assistant editor
at your magazine.
Oh. Well, I'm very happy
with my team,
unless you know somebody great.
Janie Benioff.
Hmm. Never heard of her.
Well, she's my daughter.
Oh.
She's not an editor,
but she's written
several online
articles.
I think this would be
a great bump-up for her.
I can't risk sacrificing
the quality of my magazine.
It would be an insult
to everyone who works there.
Assistant editor
or no deal.
I am not interested
in horse trading.
You can enjoy your
watered-down rosé.
I will find something else
for Kirby.
Do you think we're the first
construction project in history
to ever be under budget?
That's one bright spot of having
Leo at the helm.
Yeah, the, uh, organized crime
glass is totally half full.
Well, what I learned
from my Ada Stone experience
is that there's always
a way out.
Although I almost got killed
trying it.
With Ada, ignorance
was bliss.
So we turn a blind eye
until construction is over
and pray we never see Leo again.
-You think he'll disappear?
-Ada did.
And as long as we don't know
what Leo's up to,
we have plausible deniability
when he gets caught
doing whatever illegal
thing he's doing.
Okay. I can be ignorant.
Let's grab lunch.
Is this for me?
I mean, I am the boss.
One and only.
Is that
Tons of drugs?
-Yes.
-We'll deal with it
later tonight,
once the construction crew
is gone.
But for now,
get that out of sight
before someone
walks in here.
You know I'd be happy to eat
at any seafood place in Atlanta.
-Hey, you want crab?
We get the best.
If that means Joe's in Miami,
then that's where we go.
-You only live once.
-Mm.
You see that land down there?
But you said it's not for sale.
I'll find a way.
And I promise you
it will be on the up-and-up.
Somehow.
This is what Anders
was so good at.
If he was here, he would
have found this guy's
third grade girlfriend
and already got
the inside information.
He's still with you.
And you'll get that land.
I just figured
if I wanted to get into
energy-efficient
frozen fuel,
there was only one person
to see.
Well, I appreciate that--
assuming you mean me, of course.
Of course.
And now is the time
to do it.
Earth's resources are dwindling.
Energy costs are rising.
I could not agree more.
I didn't think Colby Co.
was chopping down rain forests.
We're not.
But as a citizen of the world,
I figure why not use
my plentiful resources
to help others?
Yeah. How commendable.
Well, I do believe
there's a profit to be made.
It's not totally selfless.
So, are you interested?
Because when it comes
to this stuff, there's you
and then there's everyone else.
Well, flattery will
get you everywhere.
But why should I partner
with you?
Because my company is
a leader in its field.
And cutting-edge tech
belongs with
cutting-edge
environmental science.
It's a serious offer.
And you can use my
vacation house in the Bahamas
anytime you want
except Labor Day.
I kind of like to blow
it out that weekend.
Uh, why is Nolan Jamison here?
Please tell me
that's a coincidence.
Well, I could tell you that.
My apologies, Korosh.
I'm five minutes early.
I'll go grab a coffee
and let you two wrap up.
Mm.
Don't believe
a word he says.
Uh
Dr. Larson,
why is your Alzheimer's drug
still in clinical trials?
I was hoping to make an
announcement about its efficacy
in the next few days.
I'm sorry.
There was a setback
in phase two.
Myriad side effects need
to be addressed
before we can move on.
-All drugs have side effects.
-But these are extreme.
Plus, it's still not doing
what it's supposed to do.
So we're not moving on
to phase three at the moment.
I know research isn't
your field, Dr. Carrington,
but getting a drug
approved takes time.
Well, my field is
this entire institution,
which I'm gonna turn into
a world-class health center.
Now, you can either
figure this out
and join us in what we're doing,
or you can read about it
at some underfunded
community hospital.
Dr. Bridges.
Um, Michael Harrison.
Yeah, yes, yes, it has been
a while, hasn't it?
Um, what was it?
Intro to Clinical Medicine,
I think.
Right, so, um, I'm working
on a new Alzheimer's drug,
and there are some possible
anti-aging side effects.
I know this is
your area of expertise,
so I was wondering
if I sent you the data
would you let me know
what you think?
Great.
And if we could keep this
between us for now,
that would be wonderful.
Okay, thanks.
But I really wanted this job.
Everyone at that gala
is someone who can
help me with my career.
And aren't you always
talking about
surrounding yourself
with the right people?
That doesn't really
sound like me.
Look, Kirby,
maybe you should
take some time
to process your loss.
Everyone else has
had a chance
to come to terms
with Anders' death.
Give yourself some
space to mourn.
Thanks for your concern,
but I've dealt with my feelings,
and it started more than
two weeks ago.
When my dad had that
heart attack a few years ago,
I thought about what it
might be like losing him,
because I thought
I was going to.
Okay, but that was
a little different.
He didn't die.
You know what?
It's fine.
Oliver's crew is still working.
I'm sure they have
something available.
No, no, no, no, no. Please.
That is the opposite of
surrounding yourself
with the right people.
-I'll be fine.
-But
I can take care of myself.
Hi. Fallon Carrington
for Paloma Benioff.
Okay, just tell her
to have her daughter
come by my office next week.
She'll know what it's about.
Damn it!
What?
It won't flush.
It's just floating.
What do you mean, "floating"?
Like a rubber ducky,
but cocaine.
And if I force it
and the pipes clog,
Leo's crew will be
in charge of fixing them.
Okay, new plan.
We throw it in a dumpster.
But not ours.
We don't need drugs connected
to La Mirage.
However, if drugs were
connected to a dumpster
at the hotel down the street,
-that is not our problem.
-I like your thinking.
Let's go.
Enjoy.
I'm only here
as a courtesy.
Oh, and because
I love the rib-eye.
I'm more of a porterhouse man
myself.
I also hear you're
a bit of a jerk.
Or as my mother used
to say to my sister,
"You have a
a bad reputation."
Well, I'm sorry
I didn't know your sister.
Anyway, listen, I'm-I'm sure
that some of the things
you heard about me are true.
But I'm a changed man.
Yeah, well, my mother
also used to say
that a tiger doesn't change
his stripes.
I mean, she really talked a lot.
I would doubt me if I were you
as well. I would.
But in the last two weeks,
my wife almost died of cancer,
and, well, I lost my
closest friend in the world.
So I didn't change.
I've been changed.
I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you.
All right, well, go ahead.
I'm all ears.
This is what
I'm thinking.
That's impressive.
Much more than anyone's ever
offered me in the past.
I know.
But you see, this is just money.
Now, farming that land--
well, it makes me happy.
Well, now, that's why this is
only half of the offer.
There's a spot up
in South Carolina
near the water,
where I own acres of land.
More than you have here.
I'll pay you the money
and give you this land.
Well, I've always wanted
to live near the water.
Deal.
Hey, big guy, what's up?
Triple the offer
I made to Korosh.
Really? Why?
Because Nolan's gonna
double his.
What's going on with
the new marketing plan?
Who's that?
-I haven't seen any billboards
Jeff?and I've driven
all over Atlanta.
Hello?
And-and throw in some language
about performance bonuses.
-Okay, will do.
-Thanks.
I told you,
no billboards;
they're a waste of money.
But I did buy you a table
at the Designer Institute Ball.
It's a place to see and be seen.
I need to be seen
by the masses,
not the snotty
tastemakers.
I'm getting a headache.
Don't worry, I'll figure out
something on my own.
And from the beaches of Bali
to the pink sands
of the Bahamas What the?
Turn this up.
billionaire Nolan Jamison
lunching with
an unidentified friend
on the deck of his
That's Korosh.
What is this show?
Hot Tea Atlanta.
Covers all of the movers
and shakers in the city.
So it's a show about parties,
socialites and rich people?
It's a great escape
for an overworked brain.
Don't be judgy.
You were looking for me?
And here you are.
A token of my appreciation
for saving Cristal's life.
To remind us time is
a luxury.
Wow Thank you, Father.
It's, uh
It's nice to be appreciated.
What does that mean?
Just after everything
I've done at the hospital,
the board is being difficult.
I'm handling it, but You know, no offense,
but that hospital,
it's small potatoes.
Come work with me
as equal partners.
Primetime Air is gonna usher in
a new era of
the Carrington Dynasty.
Let's build it together.
This is unexpected.
Well
At the moment, I have
something really big going on
at the hospital; I want
to see how it pans out.
Do you want to change
the face of private aviation,
make a ton of money
and have actual power?
Or do you want to be mired
in bureaucratic red tape,
where people don't appreciate
you like they should? Huh?
Think about it.
Let me know.
Fallon, I don't know how
you did it, but thank you.
Ooh!
Chocolate cake.
Best cure for a headache.
First, what did you do?
Second, are you okay?
Do we need to call a doctor?
I'm modeling at the ball.
Did you know the year
after Kaia Gerber did it,
she booked every runway
during New York Fashion Week?
Ugh, I shouldn't be
eating chocolate cake.
I need to go practice my walk
because my arches collapsed
during my
vacation.
Later.
Did she just call
a two-week coma a "vacation"?
I think "coma" may be
a trigger word for her.
I think "vacation" is
a trigger word for us.
You are so busy
pushing her out into the world
before she's ready,
you can't see the red flags
waving all over.
I am not pushing her.
I want her to get better.
I need her to get better.
She threatened to go back
to her drug friends
if I didn't get
her this job.
Besides, everyone mourns
in different ways, Judge Judy.
Oh, wow, you sure I can't
get you some powdered sugar
to top that off?
Why would I want
any powdered sugar,
or any kind of powder?
Whoa. It was a joke.
I don't know, maybe this is what
Kirby needs to move forward.
You know, who are
we to stop her?
Her friends.
Exactly.
Which is why I bought us
a table at the ball.
Looks like you got some sun
in the Bahamas.
Huh. You tailing me?
Nah.
-But the tabloid shows are.
-Ah.
I saw you took Korosh.
Well played.
Mm. You realize he's just
gonna play us against each other
until he gets way more
than he deserves.
Unless one of us backs off.
When have you ever known me
to back off anything?
Ah, there's always a first time.
Come on, what's it gonna take?
Name your price.
You still haven't learned
that I can't be bought off.
But I am willing
to make it more interesting.
I don't have time
for interesting.
Let's drop this back and forth
and settle it
with a one-time bet.
Loser drops out,
winner can hire Korosh.
What kind of bet?
Let's see
Robot battle.
My bot's in the shop.
Okay. Regatta.
Miami to the Bahamas.
Mm, no. But I do have
a toy car that's undefeated.
I got it.
And if memory serves,
it's something you love to do,
-and you do well.
-What are you talking about?
You remember
that tech conference
we attended in Hungary?
Ah.
Mm-hmm.
You really want to
go down like that?
It's fine with me.
I just hope you
don't get hurt.
We can go all night together

Thank you.
Bubbly, all that bubbly
Sorry I'm late.
I just ran into Paloma,
who wouldn't stop talking.
She seems a little on edge.
How are you doing?
Have you eaten anything today?
Not really.
I'm a little nervous.
Everyone in fashion is here.
Isn't that the dream

-Yeah.
I mean, it's what
you wanted, right?
Remember?
You're right.
It is. I'll be fine.
How many pounds of extensions
are you wearing?
I don't know, but my hair
looks amazing
so it's worth the headache.
We should have asked
the doctor about
the effects of extensions.
You're sure you're okay, right?
It's showtime, people.
Never better.

inspired by a design

A personal story.
I love that.
Wouldn't we all love
to have a designer
create something personal
just for us?
But that's not an option

-Oh, tell me about it.

Hey, uh, I'm having
second thoughts
about the whole dumpster thing.
I think I may stop there
on the way home.
I I'll talk to you later.
My father, who founded
the Designer Institute,
has been an inspiration to me
throughout my life.
Without his unconditional
love and support,
I wouldn't be here today

What's the matter?
Where's my water bottle?
I left a water right there,
-next to my bag.
-Here's a new one.
I don't want that water,
I want my water!
What?
Wait a minute, give me that.
This is vodka.
You've been drinking vodka
all night?
Well, yeah, it's a party.
What did you think
I was drinking, apple juice?
We thought you were
drinking water
because you said you were
drinking water, like, six times.
It's not a big deal. I knew
you guys would overreact.
It is a big deal.
You just spent two weeks
in a coma, not on vacation.
We were worried,
and now we're more worried.
What are you doing here
when you need to be out there?
I can't do it.
That is not an option.
Don't yell at me.
-No, stop yelling at her.
-Don't yell at her.
What am I doing here?
I didn't even get to say
good-bye to my father.
I just want to go home.
Are you kidding me?
Come on, young lady.
-No, please!
Kirby!
Watch out.
I'm fine.
Can everyone just
leave me alone?
You were pushing her so hard.
I told you she wasn't
ready for this.
Maybe we should take
this conversation into the hall.
Please.
We could be under the covers
with her, she wouldn't notice.
You were stage-mommying
so hard.
Even for you
it was aggressive.
I just wanted to help
Kirby be okay.
And now she's dealt
with Anders' death,
just like the rest of us;
she should thank me, really.
Have you dealt with it?
Because you haven't
mentioned it
since the funeral.
What's there to say?
How much you miss him.
What a great guy he was.
-I'm not not talking about it.
-Fallon
you have either been working
or focusing on Kirby 24/7.
That's exactly what you do
when you don't want to deal.
I want to the funeral.
I said good-bye.
That doesn't mean
you've accepted anything.
I'm fine.
And now Kirby is, too, okay?
I'm gonna get her
another blanket.
Maybe she's not as fine
as I thought.
Dr. Bridges.
Did you have a chance
to review my data?
That-That's what I thought.
I agree.
I-I think this could be
a huge breakthrough for me,
and maybe the world.
There are some promising new
developments at the hospital.
I'd like to see them through,
because if things work out,
let's just say you won't be
the only one with a new dynasty.
Betting on yourself.
Can't argue with that.
I know it's a risk.
I really want to create
my own legacy.
My last name can help
get me in the door,
but I need to be able
to kick them down myself.
And I would like for us
to work on
building a better relationship.
I would like that, too.
So you're not mad
that I said no?
Not at all. No.
Good luck.
Sales are booming
after my Hot Tea Atlanta
appearance earlier this evening.
See? You think a billboard
would have done that?
So, how much did you pay
the Hot Tea Atlanta reporter
-to interview me?
-I didn't pay the reporter.
So it was a coincidence
that you saw the show,
and the reporter suddenly
took an interest
in who I was wearing?
It's true, I look stunning.
But I wouldn't exactly say
I'm a Kardashian
on the fame scale.
I didn't pay the reporter.
But I did buy the company.
You mad?
Mad? You should see
our new sales projections.
This feels like a move
out of my own playbook.
Not sure if I should be
flattered or insulted.
But you should have
told me the truth,
just like you can tell me
what's bothering you now.
Did you not hire
the scientist?
I did not.
I don't get what's so important
about this man.
There are a million ways for you
to make your company
more efficient.
That's not what this is about.
Then what is it about?
You want honesty?
I had a vision on that retreat
a while back.
I'm worried about this planet.
So I want to build a rocket
and send it into space.
There's resources on other
planets that can benefit us.
It sounds crazy, I know.
Which is why I haven't told you.
Or anyone else.
But other people are trying
to do this.
-It's not crazy.
-Yeah, but those people
are the same three billionaires
that everyone knows.
A Black billionaire doing this
is a whole different
conversation.
I just lost the one
scientist I needed
to make this a reality.
I mean,
our resources are limited.
There's overpopulation,
there's
I'm on a high.
Don't bring me down.
The problems are overwhelming,
I know,
but I want to fix them.
And the scientist doesn't like
your ideas?
He doesn't know
about the rocket part.
If he doesn't know your dream
how can he help you get there?
Okay. Well, I miss you.
I'll talk to you tomorrow.
Fallon, I know you can do this.
I've been aware of
how special you are
since you could first walk.
I'm proud of you, as always.
Anders.
On a scale of one to ten,
how much do you hate me?
Ten being I should start running
before you throw a Manolo
at my head.
I'm not upset with you at all.
Really?
From what I can remember,
about last night,
which is not a lot,
thank God,
Paloma was furious.
And everyone knows
if you piss her off
you're as good as dead.
I don't care about Paloma.
I care about you.
I just wanted
you to be okay
because
if you were okay,
then maybe I could be, too.
You're not okay?
I thought I was.
But, well, turns out
I needed an ugly cry, too.
Aren't ugly cries
the best sometimes?
The truth is
I feel guilty
that your father died
on the day he saved my life.
I mean, he must have
been exhausted.
What if that had something to do
with the crash?
Get that thought out
of your head right now. Okay?
He loved you,
and he would save you again,
even with the same outcome.
Thank you, Kirby.
Now, go get dressed.
We have to go somewhere.
So you want to send
a rocket into space?
Yes. And I want to build it
so it can be manned.
Now I see why
you needed Korosh,
because of his background
in frozen fuels,
which your ex-wife
obviously told you
was my company's focus after
our date a couple weeks ago.
Look, man, you won
fair and square.
I just wanted you to know
it's not a game to me.
I'm looking to make an impact
on the world.
Why didn't you tell me this
in the first place?
I don't like sending ideas
out into the world
until they're ready.
I get that.
And if anyone can do this,
it's you.
Besides,
someone needs
to shut Elon Musk up.
Hey, why don't you join me, huh?
Two billionaires are
better than one.
Thanks, I'll pass.
I enjoyed the competition,
but I don't need Korosh,
and clearly you do.
So what's the next step?
I head to Washington
and ask Congress for funding.
You're gonna hear a lot of noes.
Then I'll fund it myself.
Be careful.
There were times
when I was building my company
that I had two weeks before
I completely ran out of money.
Actually, that was when
things were most fun.
But put something away offshore,
just in case.
Oh, don't worry,
I got it covered.
I can't believe I did that.
So now what?
Now I take a shower,
and never speak of the time
in our lives is killing us.
I know.
I mean, seriously, look.
Is there a bald patch?
Oh, I don't think
we have a choice.
We need to get rid of Leo
once and for all,
or he's gonna get rid of us.
I like slowing things
down a little.
It's nice.
Maybe next time we can have
breakfast in bed.
Hold the breakfast.
Oh, it's my lawyer.
Hang on, it'll only
take a second.
Mitchell, talk to me.
What? Indicted?
This is ridiculous.
Actual jail time?
Hey, hey, at the risk
of sounding insensitive,
Garth and I had a deal pending.
Is that moving forward?
What's wrong?
Garth Wheeler.
He's been indicted
for massive tax fraud.
The deal's off.
The land has been designated
as protected parkland.
Blake, I'm so sorry.
Maybe we can
Mitch says it's done.
So you'll find land
in a different location.
-You'll build that airport.
-Location is everything.
This location.
This is my punishment
for doing things the right way.
This spot's so peaceful.
My dad would like it.
The trees remind me
of that weekend,
you know, when we took
that camping trip
with our Girl Scout troop.
Anders had to step in
when my mother realized
chaperoning meant
it would be a dry weekend.
I remember.
It was the first time
he had s'mores,
and he loved them.
He always made them for me
when I had a bad day.
He said s'mores can get you
through anything.
Well, s'mores and
a pocketknife.
He really was obsessed with us
learning survival skills.
We got our merit
badges that weekend.
He was so proud.
I always thought
I'd have more time
to make him proud again.
I can't believe
I missed his funeral.
I feel so guilty.
Is that why
you've been drinking?
I'm really sorry, Kirby.
I guess I just didn't
want to face the fact
that you were struggling.
It's okay.
I need to take responsibility,
too.
Can I, uh
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Of course.
You know, grief is
a useless emotion, Kirby.
But I still feel it.
There are no merit badges
for guilt.
I could maybe get you one
for moving on
and taking care of yourself.
So you're not mad?
Every time we have
an argument,
we always come back
together again.
This would have been the same.
You'll always be my daughter.
We just ran out of time
on this one.
Now go live
a big, beautiful life.
And get yourself
a pocketknife.
Coming here was
exactly what I needed.
But, um, I just need
to make one more stop.
Rehab.
I'm a mess.
I'm sorry, you just weren't
performing up to my standards.
I told you this would take time.
Well, now it'll take
someone else's time.
You're done here.
We appreciate all of
your hard work,
but that box
is gonna stay here.
All of your research
and testing,
that's property
of the hospital. Now
Oh, good luck in the future.
