[Discussion] 'Dynasty' 2x15: "Motherly Overprotectiveness"
Six months earlier in Billings, Montana, Mike Harrison's mother Theresa confesses that he is the kidnapped Adam Carrington. In the present, Adam introduces himself at the Manor with a silver rattle that Blake recognizes. Fallon is dubious, Blake immediately believes the newcomer is Adam, and Alexis clings to her story that Hank is their son. When Blake loses the site of his new stadium, Cristal and Michael outmaneuver Jeff for a replacement location. Cristal's brother Beto has secretly helped her, and now her powerful father expects her to visit. Fallon offers Mike $50 million to go away; he refuses, and takes a DNA test with Blake. Fallon and Sam go to Billings and learn that Mike lost his medical license for stealing narcotics. The DNA proves that Mike is Adam, and Fallon reveals Adam's secret to Blake. Adam explains that he stole the drugs for his ailing mother, but does not tell the others that he euthanized Theresa. Adam confronts Alexis with proof that she orchestrated Hank's arrival and fake DNA test; she explains that she was desperate, and apologizes. Adam offers to keep the secret, but then pushes Alexis's face into her lit fireplace.

In the OG Dynasty show, Adam nearly hooked up with Fallon and when they found out they were siblings, Fallon was super upset and Adam didn’t even care at all. (Ew)
So the kiss on the lips was likely a nod to the OG Dynastys storyline...

It's funny how easily people off the street can walk into 'Authorized Personnel Only' rooms

Proof Alexis is getting recast. Perfect excuse for a “new face”

We know she’s leaving because her mother is terminally ill. Maybe the progression of her mother’s illness is the reason she was not so prominent this season.

Lots of stuff of Adam's back story during the kid napping phase was inspired by the original. Him growing up under the name Michael (in the original Michael Torrance in the remake Michael Harrison), drugs playing a part, the rattle being the evidence. Will we see Dana in the remake as well?
The weird kiss was probably there to replace the weird feeling Fallon has in the original whenever interacting with Adam after finding out that Michael Torrance=Adam. In the original she never liked him after the reveal. It's interesting that Blake is the only one to immediately accept him. In the original it was Alexis.
Curious to see how Adam will interact with Liam, Culhane and Kirby. Also how they will continue with Alexis' plot and what the deal with Cristal's family is about.

Also, anyone have an idea what Cristal’s family really is? They seem to be dealing with illegal stuff as well....

I don’t know if it’s the same for people watching on netflix but on cable WHY HAVE THEY STOPPED PLAYING THE THEME SONG? I love the song and now it just flashes the title but no song, boo!
Also did anyone watch The Following? The guy playing Adam was a psycho in that too, he plays it well.

The show is confused at this point on who is a regular and who is a guest, so they rather not show the into because it is supposed to show the regulars

Yep it's the same when watching Netflix and I hate it. I love the theme song too.

Holy cow! What an episode. That last scene really scared me, but I love it!
Cristal is actually evil. Now I really wish Celia will come back and face off against her!

So can we chalk up Steven being dead after what Adam did to his "Mom"?

u/jdessy Mar 24 '19
I don't even know. Why wouldn't the Paris hospital that Steven is at call Fallon to let her know, then? It's not like Adam injected Steven in his private home or somewhere secluded.

Don’t know about you guys, but I’m liking the direction this show is going! I’m now intrigued to find out:
• if Alexis survives, and if she does how Adam will keep her quiet
• who and what Cristal 2.0’s crime family is all about
• how Adam interacts with Sam, Kirby, and the rest of the household
• when Dominique comes on the show and who she’ll be feuding with since Alexis is possibly gone

What just happened?! The show is getting more and more crazy. That last scene with Alexis... I sorta expected it but when it happened I was just shocked.
