- Cecil Colby: Too bad you had to cut your honeymoon short because of your overseas fiasco.
- Blake Carrington: Not a fiasco, Cecil, minor setback at worst.
- Cecil Colby: Blake, you can tell the other fellas in the room that, maybe they'll believe you, but you and I, we go back to the Ice Age.
- Blake Carrington: [about Matthew Blaisdel] I gave him a chance to stay afloat. Now I'm gonna blow him right out of the water.
- Fallon Carrington: The rich are different, Krystle. Don't make any mistake about that. You see, the poor cut back in hard times. That's why they're poor. The rich know that's the time to spend. The game is called "Million Dollar Spit in the Ocean."
- Krystle Carrington: And you're gonna tell me the rules, right?
- Fallon Carrington: The rules are easy. Every card comes down and dirty, and a strong bluff is worth more than a full house aces high.
- Matthew Blaisdel: I worked for the man! I know what he can do! Blake Carrington would drive into hell and hand-deliver an invitation to the devil if it suited his purpose. Dammit, you know it and I do, too!
- Walter Lankershim: Sure he would. You know why? Because he's smart, that's why. I mean, it still takes a big man to drive all the way out here and apologize, to admit that he's wrong. And that's my kind of man.
- Matthew Blaisdel: Well, do you think it's clever to come in here, soak up Carrington's booze, and then let these guys try and go into our pocket? Do ya?
- Walter Lankershim: Now if you think I'm drunk, then you're no brighter than they are in there. I let them think that I'm drunk just so they can try to slip me a cold deck. Meanwhile we're getting a good look at their cards. And we're gonna hit 'em with a handful of aces when they reach for the pot. Now, that's the way the game's played.
- Matthew Blaisdel: Well, I'm sorry, Walter. I don't play games.
- Walter Lankershim: Then you better go back to that school of geology, let 'em examine the rocks in your head, because if you don't play the game and play it well, then they're gonna eat you up, that bunch in there. You remember that.
- Blake Carrington: Doing what I have to do, coming out here isn't easy for me. Fact is, I had no practise at it. You see, gentlemen, I've, eh, I've come to apologise.
- Blake Carrington: [after dinner] Ladies and gentlemen, I have a survey report, says that we might strike brandy in the living room.
- Michael Culhane: [manning the bar] Freshen that up for you, Mr. Colby?
- Jeff Colby: Hm? No, no, no, thanks, Michael. Two's my limit.
- Fallon Carrington: Oh, what happens to you if you have three? Do you turn back into a pumpkin?
- Jeff Colby: [after offering Fallon a light, Jeff realizes what's she's smoking] Fallon, that's grass.
- Fallon Carrington: To be exact.
- Jeff Colby: Well, suppose somebody sees it?
- Fallon Carrington: Don't worry, I've got enough for everybody.
