  The next morning Joesph brings Krystle a box that was delivered.  She says she didn’t order anything and opens the box it’s the mink coat that Sammy Joe ordered.  Krystle asks Joesph to get Sammy Joe.

  Steven and Fallon are in the gym working out.  He tells her that things aren’t working out living here, and that since no one likes Sammy Joe they are going to leave.  Fallon doesn’t want him to go, and tells him that she will try to get to know her.

   Sammy Joe joins her aunt in the library and Krystle asks her about the coat, she asks who she thinks Is going to pay for the coat since Steven has no money, and Sammy Joe tells her that Blake will.  Krystle tells her that they are returning the coat, and if she needs something that she needs to ask her.  Sammy Joe goes upstairs looking for Steven, she goes into Fallon’s room and goes through her jewelry box and takes out a necklace.

   Fallon tells Alexis that she wants to throw a party for Steven and Sammy Joe, Alexis tells her that she is crazy for doing it., but agrees anyway.  Fallon tells her that Nick doesn’t love Krystle anymore and that the wants to be with her.  Fallon tells Blake about the party and he agrees.  She tells him that she knows that he doesn’t lie Alexis anymore, but she is glad that they loved each other at one time so that they could have her.  She notices a change in Blake and asks him what’s wrong, he covers this by telling her it’s because he can’t see her.  He asks her to invite Nick to the party since he saved Steven’s life.

   Alexis is giving directions to a servant on arrangements for the party when Krystle walks in, she asks her what she’s doing .  Alexis tells her about the party, which no one told Krystle about.  Krystle tells Alexis that she has no intention of helping with the party, when Alexis asks what Blake will say when she tells him,   Krystle tells her to tell him, and that she is going to keep fighting Alexis, like she is fighting with her.

   Cecil is waiting for Blake in his office, Blake asks him what he wants, Cecil asks him what he thinks he’s doing trying to adopt Jeff, and take away his birthright.  First he took him away from ColbyCo and now he wants to take his name away.  Blake tells him that it was Jeff’s choice to work at Denver Carrington and this will also be Jeff’s decision.  Cecil tells him he wishes that Blake could see, so that he could look him eye to eye and “beat the hell out of him”

   Cecil is in Alexis’ cottage when she gets home, he tells her that he needs her help since he helped her reunite Blake and Steven, he tells her that he wants her to help him with Jeff, and tells her that if Blake does adopt him then her children’s inheritance would be effected.  She agrees to help, but tells him that she doesn’t think Jeff would accept Blake’s offer.

   At the hospital the doctor tells Nick that there was a discrepancy with what he told him and what his records say about the real reason he switched to psychiatry.  Nick tells him that what he read is true he lost a patient on the table in Vietnam and blamed himself.  He just wants to know if there is a job there for him or not.  There is  an opening and he is hired.

   Cecil is getting dresses and asks Alexis who is drinking champagne, if what she told him about Fallon is the truth.

   At the mansion the staff is doing the final touches to the house to prepare for the party.  Everyone is getting dressed, Steven tells Sammy Joe that she looks great, she looks like she’s a little girl in that dress, and to me she doesn’t look too happy about it either.  Krystle goes over to Blake and asks him if he needs any help, she asks him if he’s going to spend the whole evening on Joesph’s arm, he tells her that they will be greeting their guests together then she can do what ever she wants.

   Jeff walks in to Fallon’s room to get his cuff links while Fallon is looking for her necklace,  She tells him that she is grateful for what he told Blake about their marriage, he realizes that she is in love.  He asks her if the man she loves loves her.  She tells him that he’s not going to spoil the party for her.

   As Nick is getting ready the doctor from calls him and tells him that there was an emergency and asks him If he could come help, Nick tells him that he is no longer a surgeon, but the doctor tells him that they need him, Nick tells him that he’ll be right over.

   The party is in full swing, but when Fallon finds Steven he tells her that Sammy Joe still hasn’t come downstairs.  She tells him that she’s proud to be a Carrington, and like every other time she says something like this Steven starts to act funny, she asks him again why he always does that when she talks about being a Carrington, and as usually he manages to get out of answering her question.  Just then Alexis arrives and her date is Cecil Colby, Fallon runs over to Blake and tells him who has crashed the party..  Alexis goes over to talk to Blake about Cecil coming and makes a jib at Krystle saying she was too busy to suggest inviting   Cecil to the party because she was getting ready for the party.  Fallon asks Joesph if he’s seen Nick yet.  Claudia arrives and goes to talk to Steven, she tells him that she is happy for him.  Sammy Joe finally comes downstairs, she is not wearing the dress from earlier, Fallon sees her necklace.

   Cecil goes to Claudia and tells her that the copies she made weren’t what he needed, she tells him she can’t get to what he needs, Jeff has them locked away.  He tells her that Jeff isn’t happily married and she should find away to get a copy of them.

   Fallon comes over to Nick when he finally get s to the party, she asks him where he’s been, he tells her that he wants to talk to her, so they go to the library.  He tells her that he helped with a surgery and he feels great.  He asks her what’s wrong, she tells him that Jeff told her that the man in her life doesn’t want to marry her.  Nick asks her to be patient with him, she asks if he loves her and he tells her that she is the only woman in his life, when they kiss Jeff walks in.  He tells them that he didn’t expect that it would be him.    After Jeff leaves Nick tells Fallon that he is sorry, but she says that Jeff had to find out sooner or later.     When they leave the room, Krystle gets up from the chair.

   Sammy Joe has the band play something faster for her so she can dance, Alexis doesn’t look pleased to see her dancing, she goes over to her and tells her to act like  a lady and not to embarrass Steven.

   Claudia sees Jeff go outside, she follows him, he asks  her if she would like to go the St. Dennis Club for a drink.

   Blake watches as Nick talks to Krystle.  They go outside, she asks him what he wants, Nick tells her that he can’t forget about her, Blake is hiding in the bushes listening to them.  Krystle tells Nick that she is glad that she never let him touch her and that she loves Blake.  She tells him that he needs to be careful with Fallon. 

   Fallon pulls Sammy Joe into the library and asks her about the necklace calling her a thief.  Sammy Joe says she only borrowed it because no one gives her anything.  Fallon tells her that she is worthless and doesn’t deserve to be in the family.  Sammy Joe finally drops the bombshell that everyone has been tiptoeing around, she tells Fallon that she isn’t a Carrington and that she is a bastard.  Fallon calls her a liar, and Sammy Joe tells her if she doesn’t believe her then she should asks her mother.

   Blake walks into the bedroom, and asks Krystle if she is ok.  She realizes that he walked into the room by himself and that he can see, he tells her that it just happened, and wanted to tell her himself.

   Fallon is crying in the library when Joesph goes into the library to tell her the news, he never tells her when he sees she is upset, she asks him where her mother is.  Fallon tells Alexis that she needs to talk to her. 

   Fallon is driving very fast and Alexis is trying to get her to slow down, Fallon asks her if Blake is her father, Alexis tells her she can’t tell her, Fallon won’t take that for an answer Alexis tells her that he could be her father, or it could also be Cecil.  Fallon isn’t looking at the road and drives off the road threw some road construction.  After the crash Fallon is unconscious, Alexis tries to wake he r up, she gets out of the car and runs for help.
Final Thoughts:   I'm glad that the storyline with Nick and Krystle is over with, and that Blake can "see" again, and now that the secret is out about Fallon, I can't wait to see what happens next.
Best Outfit:  This dress makes her look like she's 13.  No wonder why she is drinking.
