Pamela Sue Martin: Fallon Carrington

Quotes 

• Blake Carrington : [re crisis in Persian Gulf]  And what does the State Department expect me to do? Invade the damn country to get my oil out?

  [slams down phone] 

  Andrew Laird : [on another phone]  Well, I suppose it's a lot easier to be patient when it's not your ox that's being gored. All right, tell me when you hear something.

  [ends call] 

  Blake Carrington : What does he recommend?

  Andrew Laird : Wait and see. Everything depends on which one of those fanatics manages to kill off all the others and come out on top.

  [wistfully:] 

  Andrew Laird : Well, maybe he'll be a gentleman... and turn those tankers loose.

  Blake Carrington : Maybe he'll just nationalise the whole shooting match and trade it to the Russians for MiG 21s.

  [sighs] 

  Blake Carrington : Andrew, what kind of advances can we get while our crude is tied up?

  Andrew Laird : Twenty cents on the dollar. Maybe.

  Blake Carrington : Where would that leave us?

  Andrew Laird : Bankruptcy. And that's the upside.

  Blake Carrington : Six operational offices from Tangiers to Cape Town, payoffs to every swindling five percenter in sight, and we get caught like this? What dimwitted office boy thought we ought to go there in the first place?

  Andrew Laird : As I recall, Blake, it was you.

  Fallon Carrington : [obscured by the back of a wing chair]  Well, I still think it was a good idea.

  Blake Carrington : Fallon, how did you get in here?

  Fallon Carrington : Oh, I told the guard at the door I was CIA. Undercover.

• Fallon Carrington : What if I change my mind, don't keep my end of the bargain?

  Cecil Colby : Let's just say that, at my age, vengeance is as sweet as sex.

• Andrew Laird : You love him a lot, don't you?

  Fallon Carrington : You know I do.

  Andrew Laird : But you don't love Krystle a lot. You really fixed it good this time, didn't you? Got your father to thinking about inviting Matthew Blaisdel over here.

  Fallon Carrington : It's the smartest thing for him to do, Andy. I don't have to tell you that.

  Andrew Laird : It'll also make Krystle crazy. You don't have to tell me that either. And you figure by chipping away at her, little by little, you'll be able to drive her out of this house, hm?

  Fallon Carrington : She's no good for him. She'll just drag him down.

  Andrew Laird : You know, Fallon, most little girls realize by the age of six that they can't grow up and marry their daddies.
