Plot Summary[]

SPOILERS AHEAD

On Cristal's first day as COO, she faces the backlash from her sex video, and a lack of confidence from the rest of the Carrington Atlantic executives. Steven's ex-boyfriend Ted Dinard reappears, hoping to reconnect. Anders manipulates Sam to keep Steven from rekindling anything with Ted. Cristal and Fallon compete for an award, which Fallon wins by subterfuge. But Fallon's triumph is short-lived when she blurts out that she was behind the leak of Cristal's video and a furious Blake kicks her out of the mansion. Cristal apologizes to an irate Claudia, who chases Cristal into the street and is accidentally hit by Blake with his car.[2]

Trivia[]

  • Cristal Carrington is the titular character of this episode.
  • While leaving Cristal's bedroom, Anders mentions Jeanette, a member of the staff. In the Original Series, Jeanette served as the longtime maid of the Carrington family.
  • The presentation of the watch to Cristal is a callback to the original Dynasty, when Blake has earrings sent up to Cristal's bridal shower during the pilot.
  • The champagne spray moment was rehearsed several times, with and without the actors. On the day of filming, Elizabeth and Nathalie filmed the scene in one take.
    • This scene between Cristal and Fallon is reference to a scene between Jeff and Sammy Jo in the episode Broken Krystle of the original series.
  • Guest star Nana Visitor played a recurring role on the Dynasty spin-off The Colbys.
  • In the scene in which Celia is getting ready, the song played in the background is Everybody wants to rule the world. Interestingly, in the show's musical episode, this song was featured being performed by Grant Show (Blake Carrington) and Season 3 regular, Sam Underwood (Adam Carrington).
  • The title comes from a scene in the 1981 Dynasty series, where Alexis Carrington calls Leslie Carrington the "company tramp" and "company slut", in the Season 8, Episode 21: The Proposal.
    • Only parts of the original lines were used in the reboot scene where Claudia Blaisdel says it to Cristal Carrington.

Quotes[]

Cristal: It's a big company, people talk. And women will never break through the glass ceiling if they're always looking for a shard to stab each other with.


Fallon: Oh, I don't believe in luck. I believe in opportunity. And this one is one I had no intention of letting slip by.


Jeff: And if you land Woman of the Year, you get the cover. Businessmen at every newsstand will thank me.
