This scene still gives me goosebumps, even after all these years. There was so much build-up in the previous episodes before that, and you can cut the tension in the beginning with a knife.

OH GOD WHO IS LOVING THIS IN 2021 BEST SCENE EVER I HAVE IT NAILED DOWN PAT!

[@DeepScreenAnalysis]

Krystle is so underrated. People who never really WATCHED Dynasty try and make out Krystle was weak and insipid but if you actually study the episodes, you can see her inner strength and inherent class dealing with Alexis' rather obvious calculations. And whenever Alexis crossed the line (such as causing her to miscarry a baby), Krystle was down to earth enough to fight her own battles and take it to the floor. And by the way, every fight that Alexis had with Krystle, she lost. Once Alexis' cousin Sable Colby arrived in Season 9, it's important to note that Sable, despite having the same hard edge as Alexis, respected and admired Krystle for her qualities.

[@trapperjohnson261]

The Wakayama Boy​ I didn't get strength from Krystle in this scene. I got an obviously insecure woman trying to mark her territory. Now I usually won't side with Alexis, but in this case she was at least trying to be civil. All she actually wanted was some help from the staff. And when she asked she was still being civil. Its only when Krystle had the nerve to say "With all my husbands been through" is when Alexis stopped being nice, and said the actual truth. Krystle is unnecessarily aggressive here. Alexis knows Blake and what he's capable of. Krystle might've taken heed.

[@terrancejohnson3071]

[@EyeLuvTDL]

Achillie, Messylin can do a little character analysis. I'm sure Messylin knows "Dynasty" was a classic tv show, not a documentary!! Incidentally, Linda Evans said that when Krystle was first being mistreated by the servants, a woman came up to her and told her she needs to keep the staff in line!!

[@phoenixforce6595]

Alexis was extremley rude in this scene. At 1 minute 6 secs Alexis says "I'm glad to see you haven't changed anything too much" That line had me falling over laughing cus it's outright rude. The nerve. Read the sub-text that line says so many things. Clearly indicating to Krystle that Alexis still thinks she's in charge and then she goes onto say "It feels just like home" Another subliminal insult. The final insult was more blatant when she said "Afterall, we both share the same title" followed by the most sickly grins I've ever seen,. Alexis is slithery and sly but Krystle had her number. I think Krystle showed quiet, sophisticated but determined qualities in rightfully dispatching of Alexis with her sly undertones.

[@bushwickbaby]

These two!!! Krystle and Alexis at this stage of Dynasty (season 2) were so well written and the verbal gymnastics is beyond...Alexis is doing her "to the manor born" routine and Krystle is not having any of it. The dismissal at the end is amazing!

@@NicoleM2108 I was talking about the character of Krystle, not the actress. Krystle was much younger, as was Blake. John Forsythe was ten years older than the age Blake was supposed to be. And Linda was a few years older than Krystle

I hope the new show-runners for Dynasty 2.0 are watching this. Brilliant tension created in this scene.

[@AllenMQuinn]

The reviews are already shit. Unfortunately I would not get your hopes up.

Allen Quinn plus there's no Alexis

[@GodsFaveSim]

Brandon Hopkins she's coming. They just announced that Nicolette Sheridan will be playing alexis 😄

Anthony Fay They should have casted Eva Longoria.

[@GodsFaveSim]

Kadia M I can totally see that 😍 but I feel Eva is better for a more comedic role where as Nicolette can play the more soap opera drama that the show requires.

Alexis and Krystle are my faves when it come on to fights

[@RM-lj8bv]

They don't make them like this anymore, sadly.

[@frankcheers7529]

Early Dynasty seasons were good. Joan Collins and Linda Evans both deserve credit here. Krystle was pretty but she wasn't a shrinking violet.

[@LEDANCETHERAPY]

They will never match the new Dynasty with this. This she was epic!!

[@theloftons8297]

It's funny, Alexis talked about Krystal's "other husband" and she went to be Alexis Morell Carrington Colby Dexter Rowan.

This series may have completely sank if not for the new villain that was added in season two. Lucky for Dynasty, Joan Collins came into the picture (the powers that be had originally wanted Jessica Walter or Sophia Loren to play Alexis but that didn't work out). The introduction of Alexis quickly made this show popular and also juicy as all get out. We had a glamorous diva who seemed pure evil but had many facets to her. This particular scene, their first confrontation together, is interesting because it sets a tone: Krystle is not one to be pushed around, or to have her territory usurped. Alexis may have underestimated this former stenographer. From then on, the scenes these two characters shared together were always a hoot-- whether it was as simple as Krystle dropping Alexis' breakfast onto her lap, or a wild brawl in a lily pond. Admittedly, the show would eventually deteriorate into something silly, but seasons 2 through 4 were the best of Dynasty. Today we can watch the show on Amazon Prime or DVD and revisit all the larger than life scandals and tensions and glorious fashions and jaw-dropping cliffhangers. For me, a guy who enjoyed these episodes when they first aired, it's a treat.
