Synopsis[]
POWER STRUGGLE — The manipulative power games between Fallon and Alexis continue when Alexis — who's grown highly suspect of Fallon's new husband, Liam — meddles in Fallon's love life. Meanwhile, Blake and Cristal spar over whether CA will take responsibility for the health crisis that is hurting Culhane's family.
Plot Summary[]
Cristal convinces Blake to go public with the truth about the scandal, but he later destroys her files on the coverup and uses a recording of her admitting guilt to keep her in line. Fallon agrees to a date with Liam. She sends Sam to try and sell back her shares in ColbyCo to Jeff, who refuses. Alexis, distrusting Liam, tries to get between him and Fallon. Steven goes on a secret trip to El Paso to track down Adam. At a fashion show, a drunken Jeff confronts Fallon before passing out. Alexis reveals to Fallon that Liam is really a journalist named Jack Lowden writing a tell-all, and Fallon cuts him loose. Sam negotiates a deal with Jeff to sell the shares, and Alexis burns Liam's manuscript—actually about his own family—before visiting Jeff.[2]

Quotes[]
Alexis: Could you pass the orange juice, Celia?
Sam: Rude.
Alexis: Oh, sorry. Cristal. A little birdie told me that you used to go by Celia. I see why you changed it. It sounds like that disease when people pretend they can't eat bread.
Fallon: How would you know what I look like when I'm in love?
Alexis: Hmm. When I told you that Culhane's father was ill, I thought I saw it. And for a moment, you seemed warm? Very unlike you, and here we are, racing to see Culhane.
Fallon: You're about as transparent as a hooker's negligee. First you tried to get rid of Sam, now Liam. I don't need love advice from a woman who thinks that "as long as we both shall live" means until happy hour.
Alexis: Fine, I'm done. But in my defense, my mother didn't give a rat's ass who I wanted to marry. All she cared about were dollar signs.
Fallon: You almost married someone else? No wonder you hated being married to Dad.
Alexis: I didn't. He gave me you.
Cristal: What are you doing here?
Alexis: A word of advice, dear. Leave the business to Blake.
Cristal: Get the hell out of my house.
Alexis: Blake's house. I was just leaving. I have a trunk show to attend.
Cristal: I'm not angry Blake. I'm scared. Scared of you.
Blake: Well, you should be.
Liam: My family's dysfunctional and has certainly caused their share of drama. But you know what? I think the Carringtons might be worse. And Fallon lived through that, and she made herself the woman that she is today. Fallon wants to give you a second chance. You know, it got me thinking, maybe I should reconsider my family, too. I don't know, maybe someday Fallon will give me another shot.
Alexis: I am a big believer in second chances.
Fallon (voice over): When I was a little girl, my mother told me a woman begins her young adult life being soft, loving, and giving. And then, what it all comes down to, finally, is: use or be used.
