Dynasty (2017) s05e11 Episode Script

I'll Settle for a Prayer

Good morning, beautiful people.
Oh, someone's in a good mood.
Or hit the wet bar a little too early.
You ever have one of those mornings where you wake up, the sun is shining and you just say to yourself, "Wow, life's good"? It's great, even.
I've lost my appetite.
Whoa.
What's not great are those dark circles under your eyes.
No offense, Sam, but you look terrible.
I'm scheduling facials for us later.
Don't bother.
I'm busy.
What's going on with him? He usually loves a good milk and honey detox.
Uh, maybe, but he probably doesn't love being told he looks terrible.
Especially when he's been in the hospital with his dying father the last few nights.
Daniel's dying? Why didn't you guys say anything? Well, we thought you knew.
No, I didn't know.
And now I feel awful.
Does he need anything? Probably just the support of his friends.
Yeah, yeah, I know that, I'm just trying to think of something a little more tangible and less time-consuming.
Okay, well, I'll think of something.
Oh, my God Well, speaking of feeling awful, how's living with Alexis? It's actually been going quite well.
I feel like we've finally settled into a nice dynamic based on honesty and respect.
Honesty and respect? You know I said Alexis, right? Because you should proceed with caution.
She's not exactly known for putting her children first.
That's funny, 'cause she, uh, she said a similar thing about you.
Wait, is it true that you left Adam in a Moldavian prison? 'Cause I get it, he's no prize, but seems a little bit harsh, no? Yeah, I would say so.
Which is why it never happened.
This is just another example of why you should take everything Alexis says with a bucket of salt.
Oh, let me guess.
That's probably her wondering what you're doing here.
No, it's actually Kirby.
Oh, I didn't know you two were friends.
Yeah, we've been, um getting closer these days, and uh, she's just been really supportive and she's so funny and pretty smart.
Pretty smart.
So, yeah, we're friends.
Well, that makes me happy.
You know, her father was the best friend I ever had.
As a matter of fact, if he was here right now, he could tell you some stories about Alexis that you just would not believe.
Jeff Colby.
What an unwelcome surprise.
Okay, I don't have time for unpleasantries.
Plenexia's open house is just a few hours away, and I still don't have the invite you promised me.
You mean this invite? Not so fast.
Do you know how terrible of an idea it is to steal a drug formula? You will get caught and you'll get put in jail.
Actually, wait, now I'm thinking about it.
That might not be the worst thing.
Nobody will be able to trace this back to me, okay? Once I have the formula, I'll post it open-source, so that other companies can make the drug for what it should cost.
A leak at this level will cause immediate damage.
Plenexia will lose business and investors will lose faith.
And you've lost my attention.
Just make sure I get my Bokocho extract - when you're done.
- You mean when we're done.
No, I'm-I'm not getting roped into some James Bond sideshow.
You're an invited guest who won't raise any red flags.
I need your help to make this happen, and if I don't succeed? I'll eat those plants before I give them back to you.
So, your call.
We have a fashion emergency.
Well, I wouldn't call it an emergency, but yeah, you could try wearing a dress every once in a while.
Sexism.
Charming.
We do have a dress problem, though.
Our off-the-runway dress from Milan is held up in customs.
So? We'll just get one locally.
Right.
But this dress needs to be brand-new, from an up-and-coming designer and here by this afternoon.
Oh, and cheap, since there's no money left for it in our wardrobe budget thanks to your girlfriend - being in the movie.
- Okay, what about the magazine deal we made, for first-look pictures of Janelle as Farrah? That's what we need the dress for.
The money from that deal is our entire marketing budget.
We don't see a cent until after they get the pictures.
But I have a solution.
So there's not a fashion emergency? Got it.
Well, there won't be, once you call your old costar Dominique.
Please tell me you did not see the House of Deveraux reality show.
Well, I don't know whose house you two were having sex in, but I only saw, like, two seconds of it and then turned it off.
I would contact her myself, but I'm not as intimate with her as you are.
You know, since only one of us made a sex tape with her.
Okay, that's enough.
That's not happening.
- But - But I have an in with the designers who used to dress the acts at Club Colby.
What kind of dress do we need? Something a touch conservative, but the stitching needs to be impeccable.
A reference would be Spring 2018.
You have no idea what I'm talking about, do you? Not a clue.
Text me the info and I will reach out.
- Today.
- Yes.
Thank you.
And on the playground, I used to pretend like I was this really important business owner, and I would hold my lunch box like a briefcase and boss all of the other kids around.
I'm sorry I missed that, but at least I got to see you do the real thing.
And you're still pretty bossy.
It's not as bad as it sounds.
I think I'm even starting to feel better.
How about another story, huh? Well, there was the first time I got into competitive karaoke.
Hmm.
Though that got ugly after we got to the, uh, REO Speedwagon section.
Mr.
Jones? Can I speak with you for a moment? Anything new? Unfortunately, no.
There's really nothing we can do for your father now but keep him comfortable.
N-No, he he just told me he's feeling better.
Maybe he's turning a corner? He's probably trying to be brave for you.
But that's not changing the way this ends.
His cancer has spread all over.
How long does he have? A few weeks at the most, but more likely, a few days.
I wish I had better news.
Drinking Scotch this early only means one thing.
Alexis, right? She's still trying to poison me in Amanda's eyes.
I had to lie to her this morning.
Why can't Alexis just shut her trap and stop doling out terrible secrets like Halloween candy? Well, maybe if you did fewer terrible things there would be fewer secrets? Cristal, y-you beautiful genius.
I'll look bad if I bad-mouth Alexis, so I'll go the other way, like Michelle Obama.
One of the only times a Democrat had a good idea.
Alexis goes low, I'll go high.
I don't think you should compare yourself to Michelle.
Of course not.
Michelle's not even in my league, but this, this is perfect.
I'll elevate myself instead of denigrating that venomous snake.
Toning down the insults might be a good starting point.
Duly noted, I'm just getting it out before I start.
Do you think that I should set up some more father-daughter mani-pedis? Amanda's a little too smart to be swayed by a spa day.
She needs to feel useful, not like a Barbie doll.
I just came to apologize, and to make sure you're okay.
I would've never been so insensitive over breakfast had I known.
Why didn't you tell me? I'm sorry I didn't stop my bedside vigil to update you on my dying father, but maybe we can discuss it over facials.
Yeah, I'm sorry about that part, too.
Fallon, my father is dying, and my mother won't return my calls, so my big plan to reunite them before Daniel passes away isn't happening.
I'm gonna spend this time with him, and not trying to make you feel less guilty.
This is not about you.
I know exactly what I'm gonna do for Sam.
I am gonna find Iris and bring her back here before Daniel dies.
Didn't Sam just tell you not to make this about you? Oh, he'll thank me when it's over.
Trust me, I know what I'm doing.
Now let's go find the woman who kidnapped me and who knows, maybe we'll kidnap her back.
Okay, don't get mad, I'm just not entirely clear on why we're flying to Idaho.
I knew you weren't listening.
The last time Iris was in Atlanta, she kidnapped me on Alejandro's orders.
But after he died, she was still worried that people were gonna come after her.
So Cristal gave her some money from my ransom to start a new life.
- How does that help us? - Well, Iris didn't know that she had a bag of marked bills, but I did.
So I had my PI trace that money to a very large donation made to a church in Covington, Idaho.
And apparently, he got a tip that somebody saw her leaving a motel nearby.
And that's kind of where the trail ran cold.
So Iris is in Covington.
Got it.
Well, you know, she may be in Covington.
But at the very least, that should lead us to our next clue.
We all have to do is talk to the priest in charge and find out what he knows.
Okay, so recap, we're going to a church to look for a woman who doesn't want to be found to help someone who doesn't want you meddling in his life.
I don't recall asking for a recap.
And you're gonna need a big attitude adjustment if we're going to have any fun on this trip.
Mmm.
What's the big emergency? You made it sound like time was of the essence.
Mainly because you kept saying "time is of the essence.
" It is.
I'm meeting some high-level British executives about a business deal, and I need a crash course in high tea etiquette.
Um, okay, well, we may need to discuss our definition of "emergency" later, but, uh, as your resident expert in all things British, I'm at your service.
So let's begin with the first and most important rule of all, which is pinky down.
Never up.
Oh, and you should hold the cup by the handle.
Okay, that's a start.
Next up, the stir.
You have to make sure that you never clink the inside of the cup.
That's considered rude.
See? You're a natural.
Don't shortchange your teaching skills.
Mmm.
You know, I I miss seeing you more often.
I feel like I saw you a lot when we were working together.
Well, that was two days.
True, but I saw you both days.
Maybe you could consult for PPA, like, on an as-needed basis? Well, I'm happy to help you with anything you need and I am gonna bill you for the tea but, um, I hope you know that you don't have to pay me to have father-daughter time.
Well, even better.
So, do you really enjoy staying at the penthouse? - Because if you ever - I didn't realize Queen Elizabeth was in town.
This is quite a spread.
Or is it for me? Most definitely not.
So what are you doing here? Amanda was in such a rush to get here, she forgot her keys.
These keys? Oh.
I guess these are mine.
So, what's going on? I'm just giving Blake an emergency lesson in high tea etiquette.
Oh, isn't that interesting? Since we took a trip to London and had high tea every day.
I don't remember that.
Yes, well, I've wiped every memory of our marriage as well.
I do love a scone, though.
I'll join you Last one.
Hmm.
Don't choke.
I just hope this thing between Farrah and I didn't make you - rush into anything.
- How so? It's just, she might not be as excited about this as you are.
She's wearing my ring.
I'm good, bro.
Great.
Cut.
Moving on.
Hey, you got a sec? For Cutler? Anything.
I still can't believe this character is based on you.
Although now I understand why you kept pushing for the hottest actor.
Were you in, like, way better shape five years ago? If you're done, I'm here about actual business.
An up-and-coming designer sent over a dress and it's here waiting to be opened.
They say it's avant-gard-ish, but they sent over their finest, so You clearly don't know what avant-garde means, do you? Apparently, it means "inappropriate.
" Wow.
After Plenexia's chemist gave me the location of the formula, I got my hands on the technical blueprints of their headquarters.
Turns out, the formula's stored on a temperature-controlled hard drive in a lab only accessible by fingerprint tech.
Great.
So, whose finger are we using? I mean, a mid-party amputation, it sounds conspicuous, but could be fun.
We just need a print, relax.
Once I'm inside the computer room, I won't have enough time to hack the data, so I'll steal the hard drive and do the rest from here.
And we're supposed to do all this without anyone noticing that we're walking out with a supercomputer party favor? It's a small hard drive.
And this will work.
Are we sure that's not the neurotoxicity talking? I'm gonna try my best not to strangle you for the next few hours.
Now, all that's left is to find out what's for dessert.
Can we not just have some candy before we go? You'll understand later.
I don't have a lot of time, we're about to begin our choir rehearsal.
Oh, no worries, Padre.
This'll only take a moment.
We're just wondering if you remember a very large cash donation made several years ago? Like, way larger than you'd think for a church in Idaho? Possibly from someone named Iris Machado.
Does that ring any bells? I'm sorry, the name doesn't, but I do remember the donation.
Uh, it's very rare that we're blessed by such a large sum, but it was made anonymously.
And you're sure? No Iris Machado? I said I'm sure.
I'm sorry I could not be of more help to you, especially since you've come such a long way.
But you can find your way back to your car, I'm sure? Yes, and if not, then God will show us the way.
Mm.
Well, that was no help.
Maybe there's another priest inside there with a better memory? My God, I can't believe we took a wasted trip to Idaho and it's not even ski season.
Well, I'm not sure I agree with you on that one.
Look, as an award-winning - investigative journalist - Lame, stop.
I've learned early on that everyone has a tell when they're lying.
Padre Romero kept adjusting his robes when he was talking.
So, clearly he was nervous and he knows more - than he's letting on.
- Ooh.
I knew I brought you for a reason.
So Iris is in there somewhere.
- I just have to get inside and find her.
- What? I wasn't suggesting we break into a church, or that Iris is even in this state.
I'm just the padre knows more than he's telling us.
Don't second-guess yourself.
Take yes for an answer.
Look, this is the only lead, and Daniel is running out of time.
So, what's the best way to sneak into a church without offending God? I am so glad that you're here.
I wanted to tell you not to stress about the dress? Don't worry, I took care of it.
You did? Wow, nicely done.
Glad you like it.
It's one of my favorites.
I still don't know why you didn't call me in the first place.
Nothing he does really makes sense to me.
I didn't call you because I know you don't do anything for free, or anything that doesn't help Dom.
But it does help me.
Dressing Janelle Crowley will be great press for my NordicStar Airlines competition.
Besides, I hear I'm all you've got.
You're right about that.
So I guess we're doing this.
I should have a photographer shoot my work.
Mm, no, no.
That is the one thing you cannot do.
We made a first-look deal with a magazine for Janelle.
So no pictures of her in that dress.
- Okay, fine.
- Can you please just try and behave? Anything you do is a reflection on me.
I'm not sure this is gonna work.
Is there a plan B? No need for a plan B.
I'll blend in perfectly.
Wow.
That is one bad habit.
I know, it's a little more fun than nun, but it's all they had at the costume store.
Okay.
Here they are.
I'll be back soon.
Hi.
Leave the judgment to God, okay, Sister? I've got coffee.
How did you know? I've been trapped in here for hours.
It's not high tea, but I thought it would sweeten the deal.
I have some PPA documents I was hoping you could take a look at, although it looks like you've got a lot to do here.
No, I would be happy to.
Uh, you could've just sent these over.
Yeah, I know, but I wanted to tell you about an idea I had.
I'd like to throw a party in honor of Kirby when she gets back.
Oh, I didn't realize you two were so close.
Oh, no, we're not, but I-I know that you are, and I want to do something nice for her after the rough year she's had.
Well, I think it's a great idea.
That's very sweet.
Oh, speaking of, do you have any sugar Wow.
Oh, one more thing.
I'm sure you know this, but it's probably best if you didn't tell your mother about this little celebration.
Alexis? Why? Oh, maybe you don't know.
Um, Alexis doesn't exactly have a soft spot for Kirby.
They've had some issues You know what? It is not my place to tell tales out of school.
Well, maybe not, but it is important to me to know the full story.
Well, uh, if you insist Aha! Iris Machado.
I knew it.
Fallon Carrington? What are you doing here? And what are you wearing? I don't really have a lot of time, so I'm just gonna cut to the chase.
Sam has been trying to reach you.
Daniel Ruiz his actual father came to visit Atlanta, and he and Sam have been building a relationship.
Which is great.
But Daniel also has terminal cancer.
Which is not great.
So I need you to come back to Atlanta with me before it's too late.
Have you been getting any of Sam's messages? We're discouraged from using phones.
- It's 2022.
- Yes, but Before you lie again, I'm pretty sure that's a sin, right? You're right.
I did get Sam's calls.
But I made my choice and I'm staying here.
Now, if you'll excuse me It's only fair.
I mean, you did hold me hostage first.
I can't face them.
I let Sam be raised by an abusive father, and I deprived Daniel of a beautiful son.
They'll never forgive me.
And I know in my heart that God led me here.
But your family needs you.
All I've ever brought them is pain.
But I'm helping people with the work I do here.
And who am I to argue with God? I made a promise, and I'm not going to break it.
Richard Payne.
Just the CEO I was looking for.
Dr.
Carrington.
Thank you for saving me.
Prudence from HR has been talking my ear off.
Ooh, hope you're not in trouble.
Anyway, we just made a huge distribution deal with one of our wholesalers, and we've got some new medication for your hospital to stock.
Well, I'd be more than happy to set up a meeting with the powers that be, but it sounds like a slam dunk.
Just count us in.
- Perfect.
- And, uh, this is a show of appreciation from the hospital.
- Pre-embargo Cubans? - Mm-hmm.
You've got good taste, Carrington.
Well, what can I say? So, uh, you want to go enjoy one of these bad boys outside? - Absolutely.
- Cool.
After you.
- So, what's our plan B? - You said we didn't need one.
What have you been doing in this car this whole time? Okay, look, we just need to find a way to get super-churchy Iris out of here.
You don't think this is all just some act - so she can keep hiding out? - No.
Clearly, she feels guilty about the way she left things with Sam and Daniel, but she also thinks God wants her here.
Although I'm pretty sure God has an office in Atlanta, too.
Saying God wants anything is ridiculous.
It's all fiction.
- Do you not believe in God? - What, you do? Of course I do.
Have we really never had this discussion? I guess not.
Okay, yeah, and sure, I believe in some kind of God, just seems that only bad things come from organized religion.
Wait, so you don't want to baptize our baby in one of those cute little gowns? I hadn't really thought about it.
Y But dunking our baby in dirty water so they have a shot at gaining access to an afterlife with some dude in the sky doesn't really seem like a good idea to me.
Also, you're not even pregnant yet.
Fair point.
Although, for someone who doesn't believe in God, you sure don't have a problem calling out His name when we're in bed.
Okay, also a fair point.
Okay, clearly, we have more to discuss, but for right now, I'm gonna need you to put your beliefs aside and get your Jesus on.
So listen very carefully.
You're very quiet.
If you think I look awful in these, you should say so.
I can take the criticism, because we still have time for retouching.
So? So, um I heard that Kirby was on drugs.
What's the story behind that? Wow, um, didn't see that one coming.
Uh, yes, unfortunately, that's true.
Though not surprising.
Okay, and just out of curiosity, did you have anything to do with that? What exactly are you accusing me of? - Being her drug pusher? - No, of course not.
I'm just saying, Kirby and I are getting closer, and I would like to hear about her past.
Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Kirby is the bad news.
She's a troubled girl.
It's really very sad.
Okay, well, is it true that you persuaded her ex-boyfriend to just show up and start making problems? Where is this coming from? Did Kirby tell you about it? Okay.
Yes, that is true.
But I was protecting Adam.
I can't be held responsible for Kirby jumping back into old habits.
Just take my advice: keep your distance.
Okay, but she's changed.
I mean, she's sober now.
Does she not deserve a second chance? More like a 22nd chance.
Look, you know I don't like to say bad things about people.
At night.
But Kirby is rotten to the core.
And that kind of fruit doesn't ripen, it spoils.
What exactly is it you see in her? She's been a really good friend.
It's your life.
You can be friends with anyone you want.
But you should know that Kirby is not allowed in the penthouse.
She would probably steal everything and sell it for heroin and PCP.
Okay, I think that's a little bit extreme, don't you? Well, if it were up to me, that ex of hers would have taken her back to Australia where she belongs.
Wow.
Feel like I'm finally seeing the Alexis I've heard so much about.
And I don't particularly like the view.
Well Hey, I need your help.
I think someone's trying to break into the office down the hall? Can you? Yeah, come on.
Here we go.
- We have a problem.
- At this point, you should print that on a T-shirt.
Someone leaked multiple photos from set to the online tabloids.
So? All publicity is good publicity as long as they spell your name right.
Photos of Janelle in Dominique's dress.
The photos People magazine was going to pay money for.
And I'm guessing they won't pay as much for second-look exclusives.
Now you're getting it.
We need to look into where the leak started and stop it immediately.
I don't think we'll have to look too far.
Excuse me.
So I went out on a limb for you, asked you to behave, and you just couldn't help yourself.
Are you doing some kind of scene or something? Because I'm lost.
The only one acting here would be you.
Who else could benefit from this? From what? The photo leak.
I told you you couldn't hire a photographer.
Yet somehow, a photo of Janelle in your dress ended up in the tabloids.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I told you I wouldn't take any pictures.
As usual, you were only looking out for yourself.
- You're fired.
- Michael, you are making a mistake.
Leave, or I'll have someone escort you out.
Good evening, my child.
Oh.
Hello, Father? Nicholas.
I'm visiting from a parish in the north.
- Minnesota.
- I didn't realize we had any visiting clergy.
Welcome.
You seem troubled.
I noticed you lighting a candle.
Was it for anyone specific? You have good intuition.
I'm worried about my family.
I haven't seen them in years.
You've left someone behind? Family is one of the most important things that we have.
In fact, the very foundation of religion is rooted in the Holy Family.
A father, a mother, a child.
Perhaps you can visit them? I know it can be scary to face the past, but maybe they need you right now.
Thank you, but I'm afraid my sins run too deep for their forgiveness.
For now, I'll settle for a prayer.
This may surprise you.
But even I've struggled with religion in the past.
I feared disappointing people in my life.
My family, my priest, my God.
But there's a verse from, uh from Sunday school that I always try to remind myself of.
"For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.
" In other words, forgive, and you'll be forgiven.
Even if it's yourself you have to forgive.
I hope these words bring you the same comfort they've brought me.
I'm so sorry.
I guess he got away.
Could have been a maintenance man.
You know, if his uniform was brighter, I'd be able to tell.
Attention: we've got a 16-2 in progress.
A silent alarm tripped in computer lab 107.
Cameras spotted a man leaving with a green cooler.
Check everyone with a green cooler! That hard drive does not leave the premises.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't realize you were hungry.
I would've saved you the last bite.
Amanda! This was a pleasant surprise.
We weren't expecting to see you tonight.
Is everything okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
Um, I'm sorry for showing up so late, and I know that this is a huge imposition, but I was just wondering if I could maybe stay here for a little while? Trouble in penthouse paradise? Yeah, Alexis and I are not seeing eye to eye on certain things, and I just think we need some time apart.
Well, I'm sorry to hear that, though I do understand the feeling.
Sometimes we just don't know our parents like we think we do.
But you can talk to me anytime you need to.
Thank you both so much.
It's actually nice to have people that I can really rely on.
I just have to go and get the rest of my things from the penthouse.
Don't you worry about that.
I'll send someone tomorrow morning to gather the rest of your things.
You just make yourself comfortable here.
Would you show Amanda to the Rose room, please? She's gonna be staying there for the time being.
Thank you.
Well, you did it.
Amanda's moving in.
Seems like a lot of trouble just to upset Alexis.
You know, the funny thing is, doesn't actually have anything to do with Alexis.
- It doesn't? - I just want to make the most out of having my daughter here.
Since she's come into our lives, it's really made me think about how I screwed up things with Steven.
I really wasn't there for him.
And, well, I know she's not a replacement, but does feel like a second chance.
I want You don't need to talk right now.
- Just rest.
It's okay.
- No.
I need to say something.
I always knew you were my son.
But I never imagined you would make me this proud.
I know it hasn't been long, but I feel like I've known you forever.
I feel the same way.
You know, growing up, I never felt any love from the man I thought was my father.
But then, you came along, and you showed me what a father's love can be.
So thank you for that.
Sam? Fallon, I know you want to talk, but right now, I need to focus on my father.
I get it.
You don't want to see me, but maybe there's someone else you would like to see.
Mama.
You came.
I wasn't sure if you were getting my messages.
I couldn't bring myself to face you, but the Lord and Fallon made me realize it's never too late to apologize.
So I'm here now, and I'm so sorry.
Hola, Daniel.
- What's up? - Well, they found the source of the photo leak.
It wasn't Dominique.
What? What do you mean? Of course it was.
They actually traced the photos back to your girlfriend.
Sasha? What reason could she possibly have to sabotage anything? Well, she didn't do it on purpose.
Sasha is putting it nicely not the brightest.
While she was on set, she posted pictures to her private IG, and those did not stay private for long.
- I think you owe someone a big apology.
- Okay.
I will take care of it.
Good.
Because I definitely wasn't offering.
Now, what are we gonna do about this lost money? Oh, I crunched the numbers, and we're gonna have to cut more from the wardrobe budget to afford anything in marketing.
I ran the new budget by the costume designer, and she quit, because "she couldn't possibly make the actors look good with that budget.
" So we have no money and no costume designer? - Nope.
- Great.
You know, none of this would've happened if you'd just picked a better girlfriend.
Oh, so who do you think I should be dating? Someone smart and and together, who can actually challenge you.
Well, that sounds a lot like you.
Are you asking me on a date? I hate to crush your dreams there, buddy, but that is definitely not happening again.
Why don't you just focus on fixing the budget so we can finish this movie in the n-next two weeks? - I'm on it.
- Good.
Let me know how it goes with Dominique.
I can't tell you how happy it makes me to have my family here.
It's what God wanted.
It's also what I wanted.
But I didn't know if you were coming.
I know.
I owe you both an explanation for what I did in the past.
I've been too scared to face it, but you deserve that much.
Please, stop.
I just want to be here now.
With both of you.
He's right.
We shouldn't waste this moment talking about the past.
I want you to be there for each other after I'm gone.
I let my pride keep me from Sam for far too long.
Don't make the same mistake with your mother.
And Iris I forgive you.
Gracias, mi amor.
That's all I've been waiting to hear.
I forgive you, too.
And I love you.
Both of you.
- Oh, thank God.
- Mm.
Thirsty? I think I tweaked my back flying commercial.
Okay, but you were still in first class.
And it's not like we could let Iris see Father Nicholas flying home on the Carrington jet, could we? I know, okay? And trust me, this priest will never take the PJ for granted again.
Just tell me it was worth it.
Yeah, it was.
You should've seen the way they looked at each other.
I'm sure Sam was pretty grateful for what you did.
Well, yeah, I mean, you know, I assume.
But you didn't talk about it? No, he was busy, and I didn't want to make it about me.
Wow.
Maybe you should go to church more often.
You put someone else's needs before your own, and you also did something really great for someone that you truly care about.
All right, well, don't get used to it.
Although maybe I will have to get used to it once we have a baby.
Oh, speaking of, I I did some thinking while eating stale pretzels on the plane.
- Mm-hmm.
- If you want to baptize our kid, I'm cool with it.
Really? What ever happened to religion is bad? I guess some of those endless Sunday school lessons stuck with me.
Well, like you said, I'm not pregnant yet, and when we do have a baptism, I'll just make sure to bring a water filter.
I do have one other request.
And this goes along with my new appreciation for religion.
Now is it weird that I cannot stop thinking about you in that nun outfit? Is there any chance you can put that back on, we head upstairs? I do have some interest in a missionary position.
What are you going to accuse me of now? Breaking up The Beatles? Using performance-enhancing drugs while I sketch? Actually, I came to apologize.
We found out that Sasha was the leak, even though she did it by mistake.
So I wanted to say sorry for accusing you and embarrassing you like that in front of everyone.
What about for being a jerk? You wouldn't even ask me to help, and you complained when Nina wanted me.
And then you thought I tried to sabotaged your movie.
Why do you think I would do something like that? Are you serious? Okay, first, without telling me, you filmed us having sex, then you released it on the Internet, then you secretly screwed me on your reality show.
- You - All right.
I get it.
It was a rhetorical question anyway.
Look, after our past, why would I ever trust you again? - You're not wrong.
- Is that some weird way of saying that I'm right? I know I did some unfair things to you in the past, and I'm sorry, but that was a long time ago.
Can't you see that I've changed? Is that also rhetorical? Okay, yes, I think you might have changed, but sometimes it's hard to tell.
But I still should not have acted the way that I did, so I'm here with a proposition - that might make it up to you.
- I'm listening.
Okay, our wardrobe budget took a major hit with this leak, so it won't exactly be glamorous, but it could get you some really good press for this NordicStar competition.
So how do you feel about designing the remaining looks for Janelle and the rest of the cast? You would do that for me? Obviously, you're incredibly talented.
- Mm.
- It could be a big break.
Deal.
Thank you.
All right.
There's no hidden cameras, right? Oh.
Daniel passed peacefully, and, um my mom's at La Mirage, resting.
I'm so sorry, Sam.
Tonight was really hard.
I can't even imagine.
Um Thank you for what you did.
I thought I'd be fine if Iris never came, but But when I saw them together, I just I saw my family for the first time, and I'm so grateful.
You deserved at least that.
I'm sorry for what I said to you.
No, please, don't apologize.
- You'll take away my moment of selflessness.
- Okay.
I'm not sorry.
But I am.
I know that even if you're not around, you are always here for me.
That's true, but it's no secret that I can be selfish sometimes.
And, um I just want to thank you for reminding me that occasionally, there are things going on in the world that are more important than my life.
And I'm just so happy I got to do something for you, because I really love you so much, Sam.
And I love you, Fallon.
Even if you're a little crazy.
You didn't even see me dressed as a nympho nun.
Wow.
You really would do anything for me.
- Oh, yeah.
- Mm-hmm.
Alexis, so glad you could stop by.
Don't worry, I won't be staying long.
What's the occasion? Funny thing, Amanda somehow knew about my past with that little Australian wombat, and it seems that it upset her very much.
That is upsetting.
Maybe Adam told her.
Shut it, you Swarovski knockoff.
Well, he does like to be the mama's boy.
I spoke with Adam, and he didn't say a word about it, which leaves you two, the Macbeths.
Still trying to poison Amanda against me.
Oh, please.
You started it.
Isn't it ironic how worked up you get about somebody beating you at your own game? The only thing you will ever beat me at is dying first, hopefully soon.
I would like to speak with Amanda and explain myself.
Where is she? Unfortunately, Amanda's resting.
She's had a rough few days.
Plus, she made it clear, she doesn't want to see you.
That's because the two of you have filled her mind with lies.
Oh, we don't have to lie about anything.
You're so awful, you did all the damage yourself.
It's late, Alexis.
You should go.
This isn't over.
I know how much you like to collect possessions, but Amanda is our daughter.
It won't take her long to figure out that she is your pawn.
Just another pretty thing to put on the shelf.
Like this vase.
Have a pleasant evening.
Never imagined I'd say this, but it hasn't been terrible working with you.
Agreed.
Let's do this again never.
Now, before I land myself in federal prison thanks to your escapades, where are my crates of Bokocho? This key goes to a refrigerated warehouse where I've been storing your illegal imports.
- Finally.
- I gave you my word.
I posted the drug formula, anonymously.
Now it's out there for anyone to copy and reproduce.
And if Plenexia tries to take it down, they'll look even worse.
Yeah, but are you sure a pharmaceutical giant is really gonna be concerned about their moral capital? Of course not, but they are concerned with their financial capital.
I tipped off a reporter this morning.
This is hitting every major news outlet, and shareholders are spooked.
Leaked formulas, lax security.
They're seeing huge losses.
Wow.
I got to admit, I wasn't sure you'd be able to pull this off.
I kind of thought this whole Mission Impossible thing might have been Mars 2.
0.
But it turns out you are just reckless.
Well, I prefer to think of it as controlled recklessness.
You said we're even now, right? So please, don't call me again.
Oh, I already deleted your number.
Yeah.
Jeff Colby? Richard Payne, CEO of Plenexia.
Sorry we didn't get to meet last night.
But as our stock started to drop this morning, I put the pieces together.
Your interview at my company, one of our top chemists receiving an invitation to the Alexam launch party, and, of course, last night's break-in.
So I had a chat with our chemist.
She was much more forthcoming once I took out my checkbook.
I know you stole my drug formula.
I also know you're too smart for me to prove anything.
So don't worry, I'm not going to the police.
If you want to play games, I'm all in.
But watch yourself, because you're gonna pay.
Good night, Mr.
Colby.
