Episode Summary

EDIT

AIRED: 3/9/88

Following his near fatal brush with death in Natumbe, Blake returns to Colorado facing accusations that he was involved in an illegal weapons deal. Concerned that the bad press will harm his campaign, Fallon and Steven fly to Natumbe to find proof that will clear their father's name. As Karen's custody suit draws near, Alexis discovers proof that Sean paid Jesse to return to Denver. Bringing the evidence into the courtroom, Alexis proves Jesse acted out of greed in influencing Karen's decision to keep the baby. Tortured by the pain the custody suit has caused everyone, Dana blurts out that Karen is the rightful mother. Devastated by her outburst, Adam moves out of their bedroom. After Leslie discovers Jeff's divorce is final, she throws herself at him. But after he abruptly puts an end to their relationship, Leslie is left broken hearted. Jeff stops by Blake's campaign headquarters to patch up their differences. Mutually regretful for their separation, Jeff asks to return as Blake's manager. Steven and Fallon return to Denver with documents that prove Sean was behind the arms shipment. Alexis tries to conceal her terror when she is told the body assumed to be Sean is Harry Thresher's. Despite Dex's assurance that no man could have survived the explosion in Natumbe, Alexis can't suppress her ominous suspicion that Sean is still alive.moreless
