Dynasty

Krystle:
Blake, you have a great talent for knowing where oil is and how to get it out.

Kirby:
You b*tch.

Alexis:
If I am, take a lesson from me. You may need it in life.

Krystle:
Alexis is a very complex woman, who seems to inspire passion in people. You either love her or you hate her. And she seems to enjoy it either way.

Dex:
So therefore I figured we could break breadsticks together and talk about what really goes on behind closed doors.

Alexis:
That's what closed doors are for to keep out the curious.

Alexis:
I don't care whether your relationship with Dex is personal or professional, Dex is mine, in the boardroom and in the bedroom.

Lady Ashley Mitchell:
Bought and paid for, Alexis?

Alexis:
I've never had to pay for it, Ashley. Have you?

Alexis:
[while trapped in a burning cabin with Krystle] This is all your fault! Everytime you come into my life something terrible happens to me!

Blake:
God damn it Alexis. I'm tired of your lies!

Tracy Kendall:
[to Alexis] Why don't YOU sleep with him? I hear that's your specialty. And don't bother saying, "You"re fired, Miss Kendall" - because Miss Kendall just quit.

Fallon:
We were all out. Scattered. Like big old pin-rubies looking for their lost setting.

D.A. Jake Dunham:
Where did you meet?

Stephen:
We were at a party.

D.A. Jake Dunham:
What kind of a party?

Stephen:
I - I don't understand the question.

D.A. Jake Dunham:
Well, was it a gay party? Gay, not as in happy, but as in homosexual. [Everyone laughs uproariously]

D.A. Jake Dunham:
The intent of the question was not to amuse! The intent was to get a direct answer from the witness!

Stephen:
No! It was not a GAY party. It was a reception after an art opening.

Krystle:
Half the people in Denver have a motive for wanting to destroy Alexis.

Krystle:
[to Alexis] I love your desk. The tusks, they're so you.

Dominique Deveraux:
Alexis, I didn't thank you for your present.

Dominique Deveraux:
[she slaps Alexis]

Alexis:
[rubbing her newly slapped cheek] It is he you should slap, my dear... not I.

Fallon:
Adam's dull wit needs all the sharpening it can get.

Alexis:
[to Krystle] I just can't wait for the day when I see you walking out of this house carrying the same two cheap plastic suitcases that you walked in here with.

Alexis:
Dominique. Wasn't there a singing nun by that name?

Dominique Deveraux:
If there was, you'd better start praying to her.

Dex:
Where are you going?

Alexis:
Home. Nobody takes me to the cleaners and to bed in the same day, Mr. Dexter. Good night.

Adam:
You're not going to like having me as an enemy.

Blake:
It couldn't be worse than having you as a son.

Dominique Deveraux:
Alexis!

Alexis:
What do you want?

Dominique Deveraux:
I've heard you don't care for my singing.

Alexis:
That's right. It's the truth that hurts.

Dominique Deveraux:
The truth? I hope you say that when I sue you in court for libel.

Alexis:
Oh, you'd only make a fool of yourself, Dominique. Everyone knows you're nothing but a... second-rate lounge act.

Dominique Deveraux:
I don't care what you say to my face, you viper! Retract this or I'll cram it down your throat!

Alexis:
Will you? [slaps newspaper out of Dominique's hand]

Dominique Deveraux:
[after a viscous catfight] Anytime... anytime you want more of the same, I'll be waiting for you!

Alexis:
And I'll be waiting for you to tell the world what a no-talent has-been you are!

[to Blake]

Alexis:
You're at somebody else's mercy now. You're finally getting a taste of your own medicine- and when it becomes to bitter for you, when you start to cough and choke on it, then you'll be back, to accept the only offer that I'm ever going to make! I have an appointment Blake. You know the way out.

Alexis:
You're so terribly out of touch Blake. So terribly misguided in your thinking. My company can afford to plant daisies in that acerage. So I'm afraid that my offer for your process is zero.

Blake:
Don't you try to bluff me Alexis.

Alexis:
I don't have to bluff you Blake. Gone are the days when you were king of my fate, when you exiled me from my children and threw me out of Denver.

Alexis:
I know what's wrong with you... The empty armed Madonna, mourning the baby that she couldn't have and the baby that she almost got to adopt... Gone now... That is it, isn't it?

Krystle:
You miserable b*tch!

[Pushes Alexis into a nearby pond and they both fall in]

Alexis:
[With a basktet of cut roses] I-I had uh, Tony cut these for me for a still life that I'm planning to paint.

Blake:
No need to apologize and no need to lie either Alexis.

Alexis:
Lie?

Blake:
Tony has the day off. Paul is handeling the gardens.

Alexis:
Oh, Blake... In the good times, and there were alot of good times, you use to forgive me my fibs... I mean, my little fibs.

Dex:
You have managed to say no every time we've met. You said no to Tar Sands. You said no to dinner.

Alexis:
Well, you seem to thrive on rejection.

Dex:
Unless we make a deal now, in another five minutes, the offer goes to 70-30. If I were you, I would take advantage of the sale price.

Alexis:
Oh, I never buy anything on sale, Mr. Dexter.

Dominique Deveraux:
I almost felt... sorry for you.

Alexis:
Hmm. Save your pity, Dominique. You're going to need it for yourself.

Krystle:
[to exhausted Alexis after their first catfight] If you want a rematch, just whistle! If you can!

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
Well, whatever it is, maybe I can give him something you never could.

Alexis:
And what, pray, is that? Immaturity, post-adolescent passion? Take it from me Dex loves real women not pale imitations.

Blake:
[to Alexis about their marriage] Your affairs were about as private as a circus.

Neal McVane:
Alexis. Well, I'm glad to see you're still among us.

Alexis:
Are you?

Neal McVane:
I'm not really glad, you understand. But it is the civilized thing to say, isn't it?

Dex:
Ooh, the suspicious Mrs. Colby. Sleep with a man but don't ever trust him.

Alexis:
I'm sorry to disappoint you Neal but if you came here to see me squirm, you're out of the cab fare that it took you to get here. Or did you have to walk?

Alexis:
I've come to make peace, Blake.

Blake:
Oh, really? Did you check your hatchet with my secretary outside?

Alexis:
Why did you buy my hotel?

Sable Colby:
But that's what Pavilian Resorts does, darling. It acquires run-down properties that have been poorly maintained, like yourself.

Alexis:
Funny. Your husband, the one who dumped you for your younger sister, didn't find me poorly maintained.

Sable Colby:
Don't flatter yourself. You never had a relationship with Jason.

Alexis:
Actually, you're right. That's true. It was more like... a fling. But it was terribly romantic. He was mad about me. Remember?

Alexis:
You are so amazingly vindictive. Did you really buy this entire hotel just to evict me?

Sable Colby:
Of course not, darling. Getting rid of you is just part of the UPgrading process.

Sable Colby:
Alexis goes through men like they were cheeses with an expiration date.

Sable Colby:
Hello, Alexis. Glad to see you've uh... sobered up.

Alexis:
And now my hangover's arrived.

Alexis:
[Alexis standing by the ladies' room] Krystle. The typing pool's on the first floor, are you lost?

Krystle:
I always know where I belong, Alexis. But that's the ladies' room. Are you lost?

Alexis:
I'm not much of a one for one-night stands.

Creighton Boyd:
Actually, I'll be in Paris at least two nights.

Dex:
You certainly make the rounds, don't you?

Joanna Sills:
Twist and turns, Dex. I never promised you anything else.

Dex:
I'm surprised you don't have a check in your hand. But then again, maybe you let Adam put it someplace more personal.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
[to Alexis] What's the matter? Didn't one tramp hear what the other tramp just said?

Krystle:
[to Blake as she's leaving him] And don't bother calling one of the servants. I haven't forgotten how to carry my own bags.

Dex:
Well, now that we know we have something in common we can do business together.

Alexis:
I don't like the word "common," Mr. Dexter.

Monica Colby:
Oh, Joanna, how are you? [extends hand]

Joanna Sills:
Hello, Monica. Here to replace me, are you?

Monica Colby:
[scoffs] I think one of us needs to go out and come in again.

Morgan Hess:
[to Alexis] You know something lady. You inspire revenge.

Jeff Colby:
[to Adam] God, help your family. Because I think they actually love you.

Fallon:
Sammy Jo was common trash. Everybody knows it.

Stephen:
Common trash. And what are you, Fallon? Uncommon trash? A million-dollar tramp?

Steven Carrington:
[in court fighting for his right to raise his son] I won't answer that. What he's asking in essence is if I'm guilty of being gay. Well, nobody, not my father's lawyer, not you, not anybody in this courtroom or outside of it has the right to ask this because there is no guilt in that issue. Everybody in this state and in this country has the right to live his own life the way he wants. Provided that he's a decent human-being, isn't a man entitled to raise his own child whether he's homosexual or not? I am and will always be Danny's father. And a good one no matter what my lifestyle is.

Jeff Colby:
Well, there's a chance he could lose Denver-Carrington. That means I'd lose my share.

Fallon:
And I could lose La Mirage. So, we'll all be losers for a while. We'll just have to live off Mom.

Dominique Deveraux:
Alexis, you are many things. A "sister" is not one of them.

Daniel Reece:
[in reference to Krystle] I have a rule. I never go after anything that can't be taken.

Krystle:
Oh, Blake, I wasn't born rich. And I'm still not all that comfortable being rich.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
You'll never get Clay, Amanda. He wants a real woman. Not a plastic excuse for one.

Krystle:
What are you talking about?

Alexis:
I'm talking about a woman who has done everything in her power to alienate my daughter from me. Namely you.

Krystle:
Alienate? That's a word they invented for you, Alexis.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
In case you've forgotten Danny is my son.

Alexis:
Yes, I know. Poor little thing. That's a cross he'll just have to bear. Excuse me.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
I can't really blame Steven for moving out on you and taking Danny. At least I know you won't be able to contaminate my child with your conniving and your lying and your dirty ways.

Alexis:
[laughs] Dirt seems to be the big word in your vocabulary, Sammy Jo. You grew up on the road with racing cars and dirt. You modeled through all those dirty magazines. You're covered in it.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
If that were true all I would need is a bath. But with your track record Alexis what you need to do is stand naked in a rainstorm. For a week.

Alexis:
[scoffs] You trashy little tramp!

[attempts to slap but Sammy Jo catches her hand]

Ben Carrington:
If you don't like it. Quit.

Adam:
And make life easier for you? You must be kidding?

Dex:
Alexis and I have a corporation.

Mark Jennings:
That's right, Dex-Lex or Lex-Dex. Never can remember which one of you is on top.

Dex:
[after catching Alexis with another man] And I told you I hadn't slept with any type after I'd met you.

Alexis:
So what?

Dex:
After I'd fallen in love with you. Except I didn't know that what I'd fallen for was a SLUT! A slut with the morals of a dog in perpetual heat. [Alexis slaps him and he slaps her back]

Alexis:
[shouting as Dex leaves her] You overrated cowboy. You thought you owned me? Well, nobody owns Alexis!

Alexis:
[as Sable is being restrained from attacking her] Look at her. She's like a rabid b*tch.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
In the beginning, maybe there was...

Krystle:
There was what?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
I don't know, some such notion...

Krystle:
Notion? You call trying to seduce a man's wife a notion? What kind of a man are you?

Krystle:
You wanna know the truth about Nick and me? I'll make it easy on you. Yes, I was attracted to him.

Blake:
You were attracted to him.

Krystle:
But I fought it.

Blake:
But you fought it.

Krystle:
Yes, it wasn't easy, I'll admit that. But...

Blake:
But what?

Krystle:
But I never forgot I was your wife.

Fallon:
That's kind of a dumb question.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Well, it comes from kind of a dumb girl, doesn't it? I mean, isn't that what you still think of me?

Fallon:
Look, I'm giving the party because I love my brother. I just figured you might wanna be there with him. So don't bother RSVPing.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
What's that mean?

Fallon:
Oh, nothing. I just made it up.

Alexis:
[both sipping champagne] Where is the frownless charmer that I threw pillows at all those years ago?

Cecil Colby:
When you were as incredible-looking as you are now.

Alexis:
Oh, two sips and listen to you.

Jeff Colby:
Oh, my God. A woman who doesn't even wanna see her own baby? I mean, what kind of a monster are you?

Fallon:
I'm me.

Alexis:
But I want you to know that I forgive you, Krystle. Particularly about that little contretemps in my studio.

Krystle:
In my world, we call it a fight. A good, dirty, no-holds barred catfight.

Alexis:
Hello, Sammy Jo. I'm afraid that your maid let me in because I had lied and said I was a friend of yours.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Well, that's a very big lie.

Alexis:
[seeing Dex and Dominique in an embrace] Well, I always knew where you kept your conscious.

Clay Fallmont:
What do you know about the nuts and bolts of engineering?

Leslie Carrington:
The nuts come easy.

Andrew Laird:
You know, Fallon? Most little girls realize by the age of six that they can't grow up and marry their daddies. [Fallon attempts to slap him] Friends shouldn't fight.

Fallon:
You're right. Bye, Andy. [kisses his cheek]

Blake:
And what did you tell the police, congressman?

Neal McVane:
Well, I told them that I had made up my mind to kill Alexis. To either choke her or deposit a bullet in her conniving brain. Tit for tat for ruining me politically.

Tracy Kendall:
Well, it just so happens that "ambition" is not a dirty word in my dictionary.

Alexis:
Nine months, are you pregnant?

Krystle:
Yes.

Alexis:
Congratulations.

Krystle:
Thank you.

Alexis:
Not that it's all that special. I mean, even worms can procreate.

Alexis:
Dex, why don't you just forget about business for a moment. Hmm?

Dex:
[removes Alexis' towel] This may take longer than a moment.

Alexis:
I certainly hope so.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Someone's been badmouthing Peter, and I want to know who it is. No, never mind, I know who it is. It's Jeff, isn't it?

Blake Carrington:
No, it was your mother.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Oh, *THAT* paragon of sanctity!

Adam Carrington:
He refused the money I offered to leave, why?

Dana Waring Carrington:
Well I don't know, but I'm glad. Darling, don't you see? Morally we would have had this big black cloud hanging over us...

Adam Carrington:
[interrupting] There is no 'black cloud', Dana, there is Jesse Atkinson! He's a threat to us and our child!

Leslie Carrington:
Are you trying to threaten me?

Sean Rowan:
No, I don't need to threaten. I just call the shots and you listen. Don't you? [kisses her on the cheek]

Jeff Colby:
This morning at the beach, when we were, when we were kissing...

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Yeah?

Jeff Colby:
In front of all the seagulls...

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
[laughs] Yeah?

Jeff Colby:
They didn't seem to mind, did you?

Jeff Colby:
You know, I'm realy impressed.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Oh, don't be. I've been playing frisbee since I was three.

Jeff Colby:
No, not with your frisbee, today at the auction, the way you handled yourself.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Oh...

Jeff Colby:
No, I really mean that. I thought you were just fixing your earring or something and the next thing I know, we bought an Arabian horse.

Alexis Carrington:
Fallon, I'm sorry about us.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
I'm not. I've seen the advantages of not having you for a mother.

Alexis Carrington:
After all, we share the same title.

Krystle Carrington:
You had it, once. I have it now; there's a big difference.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Enjoy church! That *is* where you're going, isn't it?

Neal McVane:
Well, I'm glad to see you're still among us.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Are you?

Neal McVane:
I'm not really glad, you understand. But it is the civilized thing to say, isn't it?

Alexis Morrell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan:
No coffee for me, thank you.

Sable Colby:
Not even laced with something?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[answering the phone] Hello? Yes, she is here; put him on. [hands the phone to Amanda] It's Prince Michael, calling for you, and remember, it's "Your Highness."

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
[taking the phone] Hello, Michael!

Jeff Colby:
You know something, Adam? If your morals were a fraction better than the Borgias', I might take what you're saying seriously, but knowing who you are and what you are, I don't even hear you.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I said I would better his offer! Didn't you hear me?

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Yes, I did. So start bettering. What am I offered?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Name your price, my dear. Whatever you want.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
From you? Nothing. You haven't got enough to even get my attention, Alexis, because what I really want is to see you eating your rotten heart out over my baby. Well, lady, start eating, because Danny stays right where he is. [she leaves the room, then pauses at the door] What's the matter? Didn't one tramp hear what the other tramp just said?

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
My gay ex-husband saying it straight?

Dominique Deveraux:
Don't you have any ideas, Adam? Because if you don't, what are you doing here?

Fallon Carrington Colby:
You're even more beautiful and more ugly than that grand English lady I vaguely remember, and whom I've tried very hard to forget existed these past sixteen years.

Alexis Carrington:
I'm glad to see that your father had your teeth fixed; if not your tongue.

[first lines]

Bailiff:
Do you solemnly swear that all the testimony you may give before this court shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

Alexis Carrington:
Yes, I do.

[last lines]

Blake Carrington:
I swear to you that after tomorrow if I'm freed, I'll be different. "If I'm freed." My God.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Don't tell me about any papers. You've been around this outfit long enough to know what a signature means. It's a name on a piece of paper, and pieces of paper can be burned, torn, or shredded, or flushed down the toilet.

Steven Carrington:
You know something, Cecil. You may care. My mother may care. But Blake Carrington? He doesn't care, not about me. You see, I'm his big disappointment.

Adam Carrington:
If there's any message you'd like me to deliver to Lady Ashley in Paris, if I happen to be in the neighborhood, I'm willing to please.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Any message from me to the lady would only cause you huge embarrassment.

Adam Carrington:
Mother, I don't embarrass easily.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I could change that in seconds.

Sable Colby:
[about Alexis] She's already made contact with the royal family down there. You know how easily impressed they are with cheap trinkets like herself.

Sean Rowan:
Look, I really don't have time for your small talk right now, Leslie. Save it for the bedroom, ok?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[to Krystle] How heartwarming to see you communicating with the good reverend. I hope you were saying a prayer for Blake, he's going to need it. [Krystle leaves without giving an answer]

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Do make yourself comfortable, Dominique.

Dominique Deveraux:
I intend to. Just as I intend to make you *un*comfortable.

Blake Carrington:
I thought I'd seen everything. My wife is in the hospital. My baby is fighting for her life. And you... you come in here enraged because you might have to share Amanda with me. You call that love? You've never loved anyone but yourself. Now leave us alone; I can't stand the sight of you.

Mark Jennings:
What was that all about?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Call it "balance."

Mark Jennings:
"Balance." Meaning?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Keeping people off it.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
What kind of a monster are you?

Adam Carrington:
I? I am Adam Carrington, son of Alexis Carrington Colby.

Alexis:
Why are you here in Denver Ms. Devereaux?

Dominique Deveraux:
Merely to see in person what I have heard so much about.

Alexis:
Such as?

Dominique Deveraux:
That Alexis Colby is one of the world's most ravishing beauties. I'd buy that. That she lives in a showplace penthouse. It is exquisite.

Alexis:
Thank you - Anything else?

Dominique Deveraux:
That you get seasick on yachts.

Alexis:
Only small yachts

Dominique Deveraux:
You were kicked out of a boarding school in Gstaad and spent several months as an artist's model in Hamburg of all places.

Alexis:
Wrong it was Brussels of all places and all of this is pure trivia.

Dominique Deveraux:
Alright on a deeper level, you are extremely vulnerable when it comes to your children and extremely ruthless when it comes to your enemies. and there are quite of few of those hanging about. [she takes a sip of champagne] Mmm it's burned!

Alexis:
Is it?

Dominique Deveraux:
The champagne was obviously frozen in the bottle at some point.

Alexis:
If the champagne is too burned for your taste then don't drink it. The cavier I trust is not too burned.

Dominique Deveraux:
I wouldn't know. You see that is Ostatrova and I prefer Petrussian Beluga.

Alexis:
[angry] Who the hell are you?

Dominique Deveraux:
Who am I? You will find out very soon. [she rises and begins to leave] You said this wasn;t going to be a social evening, but whatever it was I enhjoyed myself immensely. [Dominique turns and leaves. When she reaches the elevator, she turns back and says] Ciao... For now!

Dominique Deveraux:
The champagne is burned. It was obviously frozen in the bottle at some point.

Alexis:
Perhaps you will find the caviar more to your liking.

Dominique Deveraux:
I wouldn't know. That is Ostetrova and I prefer Petrossian Beluga.

Alexis:
Who the hell are you?

Dominique Deveraux:
Who am I? You will find out soon enough. [gathering her things] You said that this evening was not going to be social, but whatever it was, I enjoyed myself immensely.

Alexis:
Good bye Ms. Devereaux!

Dominique Deveraux:
[turning as she nears the elevator] Ciao... for now!

Tracy Kendall:
[to Alexis] If you want something from him, why don't *YOU* sleep with him? I hear that's one of your specialties.

Fallon Carrington:
[about Blake] He used to be a fair judge of women. I think he suffered irreversible brain damage from breathing too much dime-store perfume.

Fallon Carrington:
[about Blake] He'd sell me into the harem of a sheik for three barrels of crude and a box of cigars.

Fallon Carrington:
Krystle, you remember Andrew Laird - Daddy's consiglieri.

Andrew Laird:
Fallon, that's not very funny.

Fallon Carrington:
Sorry. I thought it was Italian for attorney.

Blake Carrington:
Of course. I forgot. The American Psychiatric Association has decided that it's no longer a disease. That's too bad; I could have endowed a foundation. The Steven Carrington Institute for the Treatment and Study of Faggotry. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've got to go get married.

Jehovah's Witness:
Good afternoon. Do you know where you'll be spending eternity?

Claudia Blaisdel:
I'm sorry, I don't have the time right now.

Jehovah's Witness:
How do you know you won't be going to hell?

Claudia Blaisdel:
Because I've already been there.

Krystle Carrington:
Maybe the reason you find it so hard to believe my innocence is because you're guilty.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Amanda, he's kind, he's intelligent, he's a prince! What more do you want?

Adam Carrington:
If you can't take it all, it's not worth having.

Steven Carrington:
Mother, how do you keep from hurting people you care about?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Sometimes you can't, darling.

Jeff Colby:
[to Fallon] Oh, you thrive on mud. You wallow in it like a sow. You're to the mud born.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Look, I can either sing for him or sleep with him. What's your choice?

Sabella 'Sable' Scott Colby:
Hello Alexis. Glad to see you've uh, sobered up.

Alexis Morrell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan:
And now my hangover's arrived. Go away, catch a mouse or something.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[Alexis is lying on her couch, very drunk, when Dex enters] Hi, Dex!

Dex Dexter:
You're not dressed. The curtain goes up in a little less than half an hour.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I've decided not to go, Dex. It's going to be a mediocre evening in the theater, and besides, I've got a little bit of a headache.

Dex Dexter:
And maybe, just maybe, you're headed for a more than slight hangover in the morning.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[laughing] "Have you been drinking, Alexis?" "Oh, yes, I have, Mister Dexter." "A little too much, Alexis?" "Oh, no, Mister Dexter - a LOT too much."

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Did you go to the hospital today?

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
As a matter of fact, I did. And you'll be disappointed to hear that, in spite of all his problems, Blake was understanding, compassionate, and sincere.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
All the things I'm not.

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
Don't put words in my mouth!

Dex Dexter:
Someone's got to.

Luke Fuller:
I'm going to die, Steven.

Steven Carrington:
I don't want to hear that, do you understand?

Luke Fuller:
I know it, and you know it, so let me just say what I'm going to say. Try not to forget me, what we had, too soon.

Leslie Carrington:
Impressed?

Dex Dexter:
Not unimpressed.

Leslie Carrington:
My pal Dex, always heavy with the compliments.

Dex Dexter:
[Alexis enters Dex's hospital room with gifts] I must be dying. An angel, with fruit and flowers!

Dex Dexter:
The last time you glowed like that, I provided the electricity.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Your memory flatters you, Dex.

Steven Carrington:
[to Fallon, about her relationship with Jeff] I mean he's a great guy, but if there aren't any lines on the pad, he gets very nervous. And you have always colored outside the lines.

Sean Rowan:
Where are my clothes?

Servant:
Right here. [indicating a brand new set]

Sean Rowan:
No, I mean my clothes.

Servant:
Yes of course. You were asleep, Mrs. Colby had me dispose of them.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I don't appreciate surprises like this, Krystle.

Krystle Carrington:
Alexis, it wouldn't be a surprise if you hadn't left the dinner party so early last night.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Really? Well maybe, just maybe, it was because the champagne was flat, the caviar was mushy and some of the company, to put it bluntly, very, very dull.

Detective Lieutenant Fred Merrill:
All right. I want you to tell me who you think might have wanted you...

Alexis Carrington Colby:
"Wasted?" Isn't that the expression you use?

Detective Lieutenant Fred Merrill:
They use. TV movies. We usually just say "dead."

Blake Carrington:
Sometimes, you are very naive, Krystle.

Krystle Grant Jennings Carrington:
[after a particularly nasty catfight with Alexis] If you want a rematch, just whistle... if you can!

Claudia Blaisdel Carrington:
You've made a prostitute out of me.

Cecil Colby:
I taught you how to use sex for gain. And it apparently upsets you.

Claudia Blaisdel Carrington:
It disgusts me.

Cecil Colby:
How naive you are for a bright young woman, Claudia. Don't you know that if you want something in this world, you have to pay for it?

Dr. B. Forrester:
Well, there's no point in your all waiting tonight. The baby is in intensive care, and Mrs. Colby isn't in any condition for visitors.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Doctor, I'm her mother. May I see her?

Dr. B. Forrester:
Oh, you can, of course, Mrs. Carrington. In the morning.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[Alexis has offered Sammy Jo twenty thousand dollars to allow her marriage to Steven to be annuled] From now on, every word that you utter is going to cost you one thousand dollars. You've just said four words; that's now sixteen thousand dollars.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Hey!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Not exactly a word, but I'm going to count it anyway. Fifteen thousand dollars. Tell me something, my little nymphette: is this your way of upping the ante?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[seeing Amanda with Prince Michael] One Christmas, when she was a little girl, she asked Santa Claus for a country. I wonder if he's about to deliver.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
I was as much a part of it as he was! It wasn't even his idea; it was mine!

Blake Carrington:
I know that.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
So why don't you have *me* beaten up?

Blake Carrington:
I probably should have, but I know that won't stop you.

Blake Carrington:
The only thing that makes me more nervous than Alexis on a rampage is Alexis on a goodwill mission.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Take Miss Bethany, for example. The innocence of Marie Osmond, the eyes of Grace Kelly, the smile of Goldie Hawn - it does rather look like she was put together out of spare parts, doesn't it?

Gordon Wales:
Digging up dirt on candidates may be hot right now, but, eh, with all the reaction tonight, I'd be tarred and feathered if I tried to take you on.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
What reaction?

Gordon Wales:
They haven't told you? The phones have been ringing off the hook. You're a heroine. The sympathy and concern is pouring in. You know, I didn't think much of your chances before, but I have a feeling if you ran for the Presidency tonight, you'd give the front runners a run for their money.

Blake Carrington:
Well, lets look at it this way: if that bullet was meant for me, then she saved my life. But she's still got one hell of a fight on her hands, I'll tell you. A fight that I intend to win.

Steven Carrington:
I was just talking to Danny about what he wanted to be when he grows up. He said three things: computer analyst, a lawyer and a rodeo champion. Can you believe this kid? I think we have a very ambitious tyke on our hands. Sammy Jo? [she hasn't listened to a word Steven said]

Steven Carrington:
[to Jeff] You've messed up my sisters life, I am not gonna let you do that to Sammy Jo!

Tony:
[grabbing hold of Sammy Jo] I saw the way you looked at me this afternoon.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Let go of me!

Tony:
In this neighborhood, sweetheart, it doesn't work like that. No, in this neighborhood what you show, you owe.

Blake Carrington:
Well, Alexis, I really must thank you. For once in your life, you've done me a favor - even though it was totally unintentional. You know, if you keep up this kind of behavior, people are going to start liking you.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Why, thank you, Blake. I don't know what you're talking about, but people either loathe me or adore me. There's no middle ground with Alexis Colby - never has been, never will be.

Krystle Carrington:
Money. Your leitmotif in life. How's that for an ex-stenographer?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Charming! Erudite, so Wagnerian, and so suprising.

Krystle Carrington:
You married Cecil for it. You tried to buy Danny with it. And you bought off Sammy Jo with it. And now you're using it to try to get Blake. Well, I don't need your money, Alexis - because I'm rich in something you don't even know how to spell. The word's "integrity."

Alexis Carrington Colby:
This is all your fault! Every time you come into my life, something terrible happens to me!

Krystle Carrington:
Finally. You're finally trying to buy *me* off.

Jason Colby:
Hello, Blake! How long has it been - twenty years, give or take a few?

Blake Carrington:
Not long enough to suit me. What do you want, Jason?

Jason Colby:
Well, I'd be glad of a little warmer hello.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Look, I know how rotten I can be. But I also know that I could change for you. I will change. I could be anything you want me to be. I'd really try.

Mark Jennings:
When I heard you tell Carrington that you had never laid eyes on Rashid Ahmed in Hong Kong, I damn near fell off the terrace in laughter.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Too bad you didn't.

Blake Carrington:
[Nick has arrived at Scorpio Peak to confront Blake about his brother Gianni] Well, Nick... what are you doing here? Must be pretty important to get you all the way up here from Denver.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[menacingly] For this I would have come all the way back from Hell.

Blake Carrington:
What are you talking about?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
I'm talking about you and my brother Gianni... Farouk Ahmed told me. He told me, Blake, that you were in that miserable country when my brother was arrested and that my brother sent you a personal plea for help which you ignored!

Blake Carrington:
Don't you understand? Ahmed is lying!

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
You ignored him! [Nick lunges at Blake and knocks him off his horse, both men fall to the ground fighting]

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
You ignored it... because it would have jeopardized your lousy oil deal! [he strikes Blake in the face]

Blake Carrington:
[Blake falls and gets up] I told you... everything I told you is the truth! I was in Indonesia when that cable came about your brother dying... and I was in the country when your brother was arrested!

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
And you didn't lift a finger to help him, you lying son of a... [Blake ducks Nick's swing and flips him over, then gets him in a choke hold]

Blake Carrington:
I couldn't help your brother... I had no power to intervene! I did call the State Department to try and get them to reduce his sentence. I had no way of knowing he was going to hang himself!

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
You lie! [Nick knocks Blake back off of him... both resume fighting]

Blake Carrington:
Now you listen to me... I'm sick and tired of your insane need to blame somebody else for your brother's death. Face the fact... he was no innocent victim, he was involved with drugs! Now you listen to me once and for all, you leave me and my family alone! [he mounts his horse and rides off, a snake spooks the horse and dumps Blake from it, causing him to tumble down the hill. Nick happens upon Blake and does nothing to help]

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[on a pay phone] Before I left town, I told you what to do. Now you go get what I want and bring it to my house and keep your mouth shut! [he slams down the receiver and walks to his vehicle and gets in... Krystle happens upon him]

Krystle Carrington:
Nick! Nick! [she sees his black eye] You're hurt, what happened to you?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
I took a fall. [smiles] I'm not as good a rider as I thought I was, I guess.

Krystle Carrington:
Did you see Blake?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
No, I didn't. I looked for him, but I couldn't find him, Krystle.

Krystle Carrington:
I talked to him... he knew you were coming.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
Yes, well it's a big mountain.

Krystle Carrington:
Well, I don't see how you could have missed him. [beat] Do you think something happened to him?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[starts engine] Goodbye, Krystle. [drives off]

Cecil Colby:
[Cecil has a heart attack while making love to Alexis] I can't breathe! [gasps in horror]

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[slapping him] Cecil! Cecil! Don't you dare die on me! Cecil, you can't die on me! We're getting married tomorrow! You can't die on me, Cecil! I need you, Cecil! Don't you die on me! I need you to get Blake! Cecil! Cecil! [he lapses into unconsciousness]

Blake Carrington:
I think we've talked enough.

Farouk Ahmed:
Mr. Carrington, please! I love my brother.

Blake Carrington:
[unmoved] I'm touched by your story. Would you mind getting out.

Farouk Ahmed:
[standing up] I could lose my brother because of you, Mr. Carrington. How would you feel to lose someone close to you?

Blake Carrington:
Get out of here.

Farouk Ahmed:
This I promise: the day you find out how it feels, I will smile at your agony. [he storms out]

Jeff Colby:
I want you to know that Fallon and I are going to take a stab at making our marriage work. [Nick nods] So take this as a warning: stay out of our lives.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
Is that it?

Jeff Colby:
No, that's not all of it. The last time I took a swing at you, you said 'one punch per customer'. Well, if I catch you near my wife again, I'm only gonna need one.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[both exchange frosty smiles] Come off it, pal. You don't have a wife... you got yourself a Carrington. And about your baby, does it belong to you, or is it like everything else in that mansion? And this building, practically everywhere you look. Is it another possession of Blake Carrington's?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Darling, do you really expect me to believe that you and he spent thirty-six hours alone together and all you did is play backgammon?

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
Are you asking if we slept together?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, of course not. I'm not that curious.

Prince Michael of Moldavia:
You'll love the winters in Moldavia. They're as cold as ice - just like you.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
I know all about running away. I wrote the book. When things got rough, Sammy Jo got going.

Dana Waring Carrington:
That's blackmail.

Sean Rowan:
You're wrong, Dana. That's life. [winks]

Jeff Colby:
[Fallon enters dressed as a princess with a small crown on top] Is that what took so long? [catches himself too late] I mean, I mean it looks beautiful.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Joseph's going to have a fit when he sees the mess I've made. Good!

Alexis Carrington:
What do you think would happen if I told Mr. Carrington what you just said?

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
And what do you think would happen if I told your daughter what Steven told me: that who her real daddy is, is anyone's guess?

Fallon Carrington Colby:
I hate what it's doing to me.

Krystle Carrington:
Hate the incredible miracle of giving life?

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Miracle! Any cat can do it with less fuss.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Hello, Nick. Did I wake you?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[checks the clock] Wake me? Whatever gave you the idea you'd be waking me at three o'clock in the morning?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Listen to me: people we know are dead and dying. So instead of you wasting your time trying to make me take the blame, why don't we put our heads together and figure out a way of trying to get out of this hellhole?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Now, look, you pass the word on to your little wife, Steven. If I ever hear of another time when she has breathed a word about Fallon's paternity, I will personally attach tiny hand grenades to each of the wheels on her roller skates, watch her do one of her ever-loving pirouettes, and applaud as she explodes into a thousand smithereens.

Blake Carrington:
Remember how you once said to me 'whoever hurts me or my family' you never fail to pay them back?

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[confused] Did I say that?

Blake Carrington:
[nods] Right in this office.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
Ah. [shrugs and smiles] You know me, Blake. You grow up with Italian operas... lots of passion... big emotions.

Blake Carrington:
[nods again] How about revenge? Now that's a big emotion. I know how that feels. The overwhelming need to pay back a man who's ruined your life.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[interrupting] Wait a minute, Blake. Did you get me up here to talk about the guy who threw the bomb?

Blake Carrington:
[shakes head] No, not my revenge. Yours... against me.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[guardedly] What the hell are you talking about? Huh? Where'd you get this weird idea?

Blake Carrington:
Weird? I've checked into your family background. I know all about your half-brother, Gianni Mulhany. I know that you blame me for his death. And for some God-forsaken reason, you're holding me to blame for your brother's death, aren't you? And you came here to Denver so you could...

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[low]... make you pay, that's right.

Dex Dexter:
[in swimming pool] Fallon, I'm talking about feelings, not looks.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
[having dyed her hair blond] Oh, feelings... I'm feeling fine. Thank you Dr. Dexter.

Dex Dexter:
[sighs] I am talking about deep feelings.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Oh. I should have said Dr. Freud, excuse me.

Krystle Carrington:
[during TV interview] Before you took over ColbyCo on the death of your second of four husbands, tell me, did you ever hold down a job?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
If you're asking me was I ever a secretary who's main job it was to bring coffee to a male chauvinist boss, the answer is no.

Constance Colby Patterson:
I shared your life, and now I'm sharing your death.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
How paranoid can we get?

Jeff Colby:
Very, when we're dealing with a Fallon.

[Discussing Alexis' past, and Fallon's present, infidelities]

Alexis:
Well, lets just say that some women don't appreciate what they have... until they lose it.

Fallon:
On the other hand, some women don't appreciate what they don't have... until they get it.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
[to Alexis] You don't understand, it has nothing to do with love. Yes, I'll love Jeff till I die, but I can't live with him anymore.

Jeff Colby:
I had a couple of interviews with out of state papers.

Blake Carrington:
Let me guess. About that video tape, right?

Jeff Colby:
Well, why talk about the real issues when you can exploit a good scandal?

Blake Carrington:
Hm-hm. It comes with the territory. Good news is just but good, evil news, why, that's sensational.

Cora Van Husen:
[Krystle visits Cora Van Husen's brothel] I'll say this for you, you sure got guts coming to see me.

Krystle Carrington:
I'm trying to help my husband.

Cora Van Husen:
We help a lot of husbands in here.

Sean Rowan:
[on phone] Close doesn't make it, gentlemen. Close only counts in horseshoes and handgrenades. Not at ColbyCo. [hangs up]

Krystle Carrington:
So you enjoy slinging mud, Alexis?

[Fallon is driving dangerously fast]

Alexis:
Fallon are you trying to kill us both? Look darling, whatever this is all about, and I presume it's about Dr. Toscani, no man is worth it!

Fallon:
You oughta know because you know all about men don't you mother?

Alexis:
Fallon you're obviously drunk! -...

Fallon:
If you don't answer me that question, well answer me this- is Blake my father or isn't he?

Alexis:
Fallon what's wrong with you tonight?

Fallon:
Just answer me- yes or no, because if you don't I'll kill us both, I swear to God I will!

Alexis:
Fallon I can't answer that! I honestly can't answer it! Blake could be your father... or...

Fallon:
Or... Mother!

Alexis:
...Cecil Colby!

[Fallon loses control of the car]

Alexis:
Fallon!

[the car swerves off the road, crashing through a construction sight, as Alexis and Fallon clutch the steering wheel in desperation, the car barely misses a bulldozer, and then crashes]

Blake Carrington:
Who are you to bring that up? A man who'd stab his mother to make a deal!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, you are such a romantic, aren't you? You remind of the first man that I fell in love with when I was 17 years old.

Sean Rowan:
Blake. [Alexis does not answer]

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
Maybe Josh is what I need. Curring horses every day doesn't exactly fulfill a woman's needs.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[Sean has taken Alexis to a secluded cabin in Mexico] So, eh, what's for dinner then?

Sean Rowan:
We fish for it.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Fish? Sean, I don't like fish. I only like caviar...

Krystle Carrington:
[to Alexis] Have a nice flight. Are you taking a plane?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
You know, you may be my daughter, but sarcasm does *not* become you.

William Todd:
Your honor, I must agree with my client. This last minute bit of histrionics is an insult to this court!

Gloria Wilby:
The truth is never an insult!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[to Leslie] However, I might be willing to write you a letter of recommendation listing all of your special talents, starting with, em... company tramp... Or should that be... company slut, which do you prefer?

Adam Carrington:
Father, what are you doing here, it's election night.

Blake Carrington:
You're my son, aren't you? There's nothing more important than that.

Adam Carrington:
[to Jesse] He's my son and you are not going to raise him.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
[Fallon has misinterpreted a call from Krystle to Nick] Mrs. Carrington is a patient of mine.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
Is she really.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
Yes, and you're not entitled to know even that much. Now get the hell out of here, Fallon, and don't you ever pull the jealousy bit with me again. Your father's lived with it since he married Krystle; that's his problem. But I don't have to take it from you - *especially* not from you. Is that clear?

Dex:
[touching Leslie's face] You're like a smoldering of fire. Hot and inviting. But as soon as anyone gets too close, they run the risk of being burned.

Leslie Carrington:
[pulls away from him] Maybe you're just not man enough to take the heat.

LB Carrington:
I'm trying to be grown up. Can you help me, Grandpa?

Blake Carrington:
Help you do what?

LB Carrington:
Find a place to live.

Blake Carrington:
Why would you want to live some other place?

LB Carrington:
Because I did something bad. Now my mom and dad don't wanna be my mom and dad anymore.

Dex Dexter:
[to Leslie] Take care, candy. You wanna feed with the sharks? They just might feed on you.

Morgan Hess:
What do you need?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Information about my husband.

Morgan Hess:
[laughs] Which one?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Like your wardrobe, Mr. Hess, your sense of humor is not your strong suit.

Sean Rowan:
[Blake and Dex are trapped in a ship's hold and Sean is speaking to them via intercom] We have something in common, we three: two former and one present husband of the illustrious Alexis Colby. Isn't it marvelous, eh? How, only in America, could the son of a servant enjoy the fruits of a marriage in a rich and powerful family. But it's not quite the fate my sister had to endure. Or my father.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[scoffs at Blake] Governor! You can't even run your own family, let alone Colorado!

Steven Carrington:
I have no choice. You sit on the bench on Sunday.

Josh Harris:
I'll tell you what, I'll go you one better: I'll sit at home and watch you lose. I quit!

Steven Carrington:
Oh, just admit it, Adam: the one thing that really bothers you is that I'm sitting in Blake's chair.

Adam Carrington:
You're wrong! Everything about you bothers me.

Dr. Nick Toscanni:
Fallon! Call me - when you grow up.

Matthew Blaisdel:
[to Leslie] Love's an easy word around here. What they love is money and power. Now what I'm asking is, what have they given you in terms of those? My guess is nothing.

Policeman:
[pointing a gun at Blake] You are under arrest.

Blake Carrington:
Good! Get me down to headquarters as fast as you can.

Steven Carrington:
How can you talk about a good place when a little while ago I saw you give an order to shoot a man in cold blood?

Matthew Blaisdel:
I did him a favor, Steven. The soul has been released.

Morgan Hess:
You know, every time I get involved with you I end up with nothing but trouble.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
You also end up with money, lots and lots of money.

Steven Carrington:
Look, whatever we do, we can't even think of using violence.

Leslie Carrington:
Is that the voice of a coward I'm hearing?

Blake Carrington:
[speaking through police bullhorn] I beg you as I've never begged any man for anything: please let my family go.

Bartender:
I'm sorry sir, names don't mean much to me, I just connect faces with drinks.

Dex Dexter:
I don't know how to thank you.

Harry Thresher:
[slyly] By... making the flight.

Sean Rowan:
[pouring champagne into a glass] Is this enough for you?

Leslie Carrington:
I like to think that we... never get enough in life. You should always stay a little hungry. It keeps you wanting more.

Blake Carrington:
[about Alexis] She sure knows how to ruin a man's appetite.

Josh Harris:
I mean your lifestyle isn't exaclty a secret in the lockerroom, so if there are any strings attached to this job...

Steven Carrington:
Look Harris, I don't give a damn what you think you know or what you've heard. Believe me, the only place I want your body is down on that football field.

Dex Dexter:
[arguing about Alexis' job offer to Leslie] Leslie, this has nothing to do with you, don't you realize she is using you to get at me?

Leslie Carrington:
Oh! You're ego is a work of art. You can't believe that it's simply one woman helping another.

Dex Dexter:
If the woman weren't Alexis Colby, I might buy it.

Sammy Jo Dean Carrington:
[to Josh] Hold it right there, hot shot. I'm not buying your dumb country boy routine. And if you don't let me out, you might find your self with an injury that will not only prevent you from playing next Sunday but from ever fathering a child.

Dex Dexter:
I wanted to see if you were doing anything for lunch.

Leslie Carrington:
Sorry, but I have plans.

Dex Dexter:
Maybe you could cancel the dead?

Leslie Carrington:
With Prince Edward of England? He's just passing through Denver and obviously dying to buy me a cheeseburger.

Dex Dexter:
Those Buckingham Palace boys, they do have good taste in women.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
[arguing with Jeff] I don't need you to speak for me, I don't need anybody getting between my father and me!

Jeff Colby:
You and your father. That's what this is all about, isn't it? We're not fighting about spaceships!

Steven Carrington:
It's too early for him to discuss turning over the company.

Adam Carrington:
Is it? Steven, he didn't ask us to wait in here so he could bring us the weather report.

Krystle Carrington:
You miserable b*tch!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I have no intention of standing here and arguing with you and catching pneumonia!

Blake Carrington:
If you go on ruining other people's lives, I wouldn't give a dime for your chances of holding on to your own.

Sable Colby:
She's not my daughter - at least, not today, she isn't.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Good afternoon, Blake.

Blake Carrington:
Sit down.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Did I hear you offer me a drink?

Blake Carrington:
No, you didn't.

Morgan Hess:
I've been checking a few more leads on your late husband.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
[scoffs] Please, the live and death of Sean Rowan no longer concerns me.

Morgan Hess:
Well I don't know, Mrs. Colby, the guy may be dead, but, eh, he can still hurt you.

Leslie Carrington:
No problem, you know, it probably wouldn't have worked, I mean I never could stand anybody who didn't squeeze the toothpaste from the middle. Bye Jeff, I won't bother you again.

Alexis:
I've come to ask you for your autograph. Congratulations. Sister Dearest is a wonderful piece of fiction.

Cassandra 'Caress' Morrell:
[though drunk, bolts right up at the news, about to wet her pants] You mean you've read it?

Alexis:
Well, of course I've read it. It doesn't take very long. It's like a comic book without the pictures.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Dominique. Good evening.

Dominique Deveraux:
Good evening, Alexis. I was sure you knew, this is a private party.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, I know. And I wouldn't dream of crashing it. But I was dining in the gourmet room and I wanted to give you a very special engagement present personally.

Dominique Deveraux:
There is nothing I want from you, Alexis.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, you'll want this, dear. Interesting man, your fiancee. Let's discuss him.

Dominique Deveraux:
Surely you understand that I'm not in the mood to discuss Garrett or anyone else with you.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, does that include his so-called first wife?

Dominique Deveraux:
Yes, that does include Jessica.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Jessica. Ah, well, I think that I should tell you as a friend that there never was a Jessica. That your fiancee has never been married.

Dominique Deveraux:
Oh, good God, Alexis. Do your lies never stop?

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Are you calling me a liar? Oh, I find that very amusing. Well, I suggest that you check it out with Garrett Boydston yourself because he gives a new meaning to the word "liar."

Dominique Deveraux:
Alexis.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Yes?

Dominique Deveraux:
I didn't thank you for your present. [she hauls off and delivers the mother of all slaps to Alexis' face. And Alexis just smiles]

Alexis Carrington Colby:
It's he you should slap, dear. Not I.

[first lines]

Judge Horatio Quinlan:
All rise.

[last lines]

Alexis Carrington:
I'm moving in.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
How could she hate a man like you? A wonderful man like you?

Blake Carrington:
[dryly] Hard to fathom, isn't it?

Dex Dexter:
Alexis and I have a corporation.

Mark Jennings:
That's right - Dex/Lex or Mex/Tex. Never can remember which one of you's on top.

Karen Atkinson:
What kind of deal pays that much money, and in cash?

Jesse Atkinson:
It's perfectly legal, don't worry. I got 50.000 now and 50.000 after.

Karen Atkinson:
After what? What do you have to do?

Jesse Atkinson:
Nothing.

Karen Atkinson:
You're getting paid a 100.000 dollars for doing nothing?

Adam Carrington:
If anything happens to my child, I will destroy you.

Jesse Atkinson:
You go to hell.

Russ Kelton:
You know, for a minute there, I thought they were going to give you a standing ovation.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
I'm rather surprised they didn't.

Alexis Carrington Colby:
How dare you talk to me about my son?

Krystle Carrington:
His son, too, Alexis!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Yes, of course. *His* son! Like the baby upstairs is *his* grandson, and you're *his* wife, and Fallon is *his* darling daughter, and Steven is *his* embarrassment! Everyone is his, *his*, *HIS!* The past is over and nothing can change it, but let me tell you something, Krystle. The future is going to be very different, because in a very short time, this faultless family is going to be hearing from me, including you, and you especially are going to cringe at what you hear! Krystle Jennings Carrington! The oh, so sterling once, and maybe future, secretary!

Claudia Blaisdel:
Steven loves his father, Alexis. And he loves you, too - very much. And that's the way it should be. But if you can't accept an equal display of affection from Steven to both of his parents, that's your problem. Please don't try and make it mine.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
I don't wear clothes to bed.

Adam Carrington:
How about that? Neither do I.

Blake Carrington:
Alexis, I thought I made it quite clear that I didn't want you to come here!

Alexis Carrington Colby:
Oh, yes, Blake, you made it quite clear. But I don't arrange my life to suit the Gospel According to Blake Carrington!

Blake Carrington:
Amanda? My God, it's the middle of the night! Are you all right?

Amanda Bedford Carrington:
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to wake you.

Blake Carrington:
Nonsense. That's what children are for: to keep their parents from sleeping at night.

Adam Carrington:
The way I see it, you and I are two of a kind. It's just that I'm more honest about it.

Fallon Carrington Colby:
[to Logan Rhinewood's henchman, Ray Bonning] Tell me something, Mr. Bonning. Your clothes are terribly Neiman Marcus. But who makes your shoulder holsters? Gucci?
