Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ked" data-source="post: 445400" data-attributes="member: 54">The other day, I was watching this interesting little short: [MEDIA=youtube]ndEOszgnN2M[/MEDIA]And I suddenly came to realize that Fallon having a son *SHOULD* have made her even *MORE* ruthless, and not the weepy wisp she'd be reduced to. After all, it's pretty commonly known around here that one of the original plans for Season 3 was that Fallon decides to remain married to Jeff so she can take Adam to court when he gets Jeff to sign over his ColbyCo shares. In Season 1, Fallon's grief was that father Blake wouldn't let her in the family business simply because she was a woman, so it makes sense that Fallon would try to live vicariously through her own son to get what she's always wanted. If she can't be Blake Carrington's heir/second-in-command, then at least her son be that......and the introduction of long-lost brother Adam would be JUST the thing to set Fallon off. If anything, she should have been as territorial as a pitbull when it came to Adam, doing all she could to shove him back out the door, kick him to the curb and throw him in the gutter. Trying to prove that he was a fraud, that there was no way that this stranger could possibly be a Carrington! And when Adam impregnates Kirby, Fallon's childhood best friend AND husband Jeff's mistress, Fallon nearly goes to pieces, ready to go nuclear: not only is this a betrayal on her husband and friend's part, but this also means that now Adam is waving his own child around. If Adam truly is the firstborn SON of Blake Carrington, not only does he inherit what Fallon has wanted her whole life ("You didn't even know you were a Carrington until a year ago!"), but Fallon's own son gets screwed over too. Thus, Adam and Kirby's daughter never should have died, as that would have kept the drama alive: sexist Blake now has a bit of conundrum. Should he hand over the business, the very one he built as tribute to his firstborn son, TO his actual firstborn son... even when he, Adam, doesn't have a son of his own? Especially when his favorite daughter has HER own son? Adam: "I am your firstborn. You built this business, this EMPIRE, to honor my memory. I may have no son of my own, but Fallon's son is NOT a Carrington. He's a Colby. My daughter is a REAL Carrington!"Fallon: "A 'REAL' Carrington?! Don't make me laugh! That little girl is nothing but a glorified bastard!"Adam backhands Fallon. Fallon claws at Adam's face. The two start fighting, intent on literally killing one another, causing the rest of the family to jump in to try and separate them. (I also like to imagine that Amanda has already arrived as well, so that, during this family brawl, Steven punches Adam while Amanda grabs at Fallon's hair. <img src="http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0208.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="lol    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" /> )</blockquote>
