Recap / Dynasty 2017 S 1 E 07 A Taste Of Your Own Medicine

Go To

Fallon returns to the Carrington estate for Thanksgiving, but Blake says she is unwelcome unless she makes up with Cristal. She goes to the church where Michael's family are providing food for poor people, and ends up bonding with them. Cristal finds out that Claudia has been intentionally switching her meds, just in time for Claudia to go awry and turn the Carrington Thanksgiving chaotic.

As it turns out, Claudia was the one who sabotaged the machinery that killed Matthew, as she was mad that he was leaving her for Cristal. Fallon helps defuse the situation, and for this reason is welcomed back at the house. However, Steven is mad that Blake does not admit the real reason why Stansfield is still on his payroll, which may be related to Willy's death.

As the Carringtons try to turn the page, a man from Cristal's past arrives and states that he is coming for her.


Tropes

  • Babies Make Everything Better: Blake suggests to have a baby with Cristal, as a way to put everything in the past behind.
  • Embarrassing Middle Name: Joseph is revealed to have the middle name "Winifred", which nobody knew until Sam looks at it from his driving license.
  • If I Can't Have You…: Claudia killed Matthew for wanting to leave her for Cristal, though she claimed she only wanted to hurt him.
  • In the Back: Sam is knocked unconscious when Claudia hits him with a gun in the back.
  • Obfuscating Insanity: Well, a different kind of insanity. Claudia has always been aware of where and when she is, as her brain illness had subsided years ago, but she continued to fake being sick so Matthew would not leave her.
  • Thanksgiving Episode: Revolves around Thanksgiving as celebrated by the Carringtons.
  • Wall of Weapons: The Carrington estate has a room to store guns in the cellar.
  • Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Claudia continued to fake being sick so nobody would suspect that she murdered her husband.
