Synopsis[]

SUSPICIOUS MINDS - Fallon remains hyper-focused on Fallon Unlimited, but realizes she needs some time with Liam. Kirby returns to the Manor and begins to make amends with those she hurt, with help from Sam. Culhane and Jeff form a new partnership. The recent turn of events causes Blake to become curious about new developments and asks Adam for help. Alexis warns Amanda about Blake.[1]

Plot Summary[]

SPOILERS AHEAD

Amanda is impressive. She's an Oxford-educated attorney with little tolerance for manipulation. Blake suspects he may actually be her biological father and squares off against Alexis to confirm it. Jeff loses his cool during a podcast interview rather than admit to set-backs in ColbyCo's space race. Kirby's sobriety has her making too many amends to unreceptive Adam and not enough to Sam. Fallon is matched play by play in an attempted company takeover by a taunting Colin. Michael brainstorms use of offshore rigs to launch Jeff's rockets. Amanda has choice words for both "parents" when swiped DNA reveals her to be a Carrington. Neglected Liam is drawn closer to Eva - as Fallon is to Colin after she barely defeats his ingenious buyout.[2]
