‘Dynasty’ Season Two Finale: Double-Cross Upon Double-Cross; Two Bodies Dredged From The Water, Another Goes Into The Pool
On Friday night’s CW Dynasty season two finale, in true “soap opera on steroid” fashion; you needed a scorecard to check who was zoomin’ who! There was plenty of backstabbing, murderous intent, deceit and more, culminating in the re-wedding of Blake (Grant Show) and Cristal (Ana Brenda Contreras) with the lake and a pool set as a major backdrop on how viewers will be left wanting to know the outcome in this juicy cliffhanger. But alas, folks! You will have to wait for the series upcoming third season to get all the answers.
And we just got to say, Elizabeth Gilles (Fallon) is a gem and the show would not be the same without her, but here’s how things were left for the Carringtons and company as we fade to black on the climatic final moments.
Sicko bad boy, Adam (Sam Underwood) has serious anger management issues. When Jeff Colby (Sam Adegoke) learns the news that he has neurological disease, caused by the poison he ingested thanks to Adam, and that he will die, he puts a plan in motion. He stages his own death. We believe Adam killed him, but in actuality it is revealed he was in cahoots with Dominique (Michael Michele). After we see the flashback (as Jeff is heading to the Bahamas with the secret that he is dying), he knows they have Adam’s cuff-link planted at the scene of the crime that will do him in. He says goodbye to his mother and sister and boards a plane. But then, Dominique shows us that she went back and grabbed Adam’s cuff-link and is in cahoots with Blake. She threw her own son under the bus!
Liam (Adam Huber) and Fallon have gotten oh-so-close, but not before Adam plants a letter on Fallon’s desk that Liam fathered a child … and later Fallon comes clean that during a drunken high school binge with a friend, the two got in an argument and the girl fell down a flight of stairs and the family covered it up. Adam overheard the whole thing. Next, Liam and Fallon go to the water in a row boat where Fallon proposes to him, with a valuable family ring from Liam’s family. After Liam accepts the proposal, they make-out and the ring drops into the water. Later, when Liam confronts Adam about the letter he knows he left for Fallon; Adam clubs Liam in the head and locks him up just outside the pool at the mansion. Liam was about to expose Adam for all his lies and crimes.

Later, a shocked Fallon sees that her father and Cristal are getting re-married and their counter attack on Culhane (Robert Christopher Riley) has worked. Culhane is being arrested by the feds. Fallon sold her company to Kirby (Maddison Brown) for $1 dollar to help reunite with her father in business, but since her father double-crossed her, she tells Kirby she wants her business back. Kirby says she is not selling it back, because she tried to get Culhane to break up with her. Then, Blake demands Anders (Alan Dale) marry him and Cristal now, but Anders refuses. He already made a deal with Sammy Jo (Rafael de La Fuente) to help run the hotel and is leaving Blake’s employ following his recent hospital stay and health scare.
All of a sudden, the divers who Adam hired to locate the MIA engagement ring, find two bodies in the water. Blake mutters that he knows who one of them is. Adam flashes back to a scene with Steven (James MacKay), where Steven tells him how the young girl’s death was covered up. And yup, it was revealed that one of the bodies was the young girl that Fallon got into the drunken altercation with all those years ago. The second boy has not been ID’d yet. This is juxtaposed with Liam, who has made it out of lock-up by the pool. He screams “Fallon” but he is so disoriented that he eventually falls into the pool face first, and all we can assume is that he has drowned. But, will he be rescued? Who will the second body turn out to be that was found in the lake? And … when will Adam and Alexis (Elizabeth Gilles) put their plan into motion? When we last saw Alexis a few episodes ago, we saw that she has a brand new face, identical to that of Fallon’s! Stay tuned.
So, what did you think of the season two finale of Dynasty? Comment below!
Well, it really was full of shockers but the only one (or two) that I really care about is Liam in the pool. (He better not die or I’ll spit nails!) and Andres helping Sam with the hotel.
I would like Liam to marry fallon but I pray for him not to die so Fallon will marry him in season 3
I’m REALLY enjoying this reboot. The first season started off a bit wonky but picked up-sort of- in the season finale. But season two dialed up the camp and drama from 0-60. The addition of Sam Underwood as Adam was brilliant. Bald, sexy, obviously bi-sexual, and psycho as Hell. Obviously, for some odd reason, the writers really stumbled changing major characters gender and ethnicity. That’s a good idea. Now how do we write for them? SMH. As for the finale I think Liam will be temporarily amnesiac and blind-that constant ear ringing and blurry vision. It will be fun watching Adam terrorize him lol. Blake fiercely whispering to crystal-“I’m only responsible for one those bodies ” -as they dragged his lake was hilarious. Dumb as a box of rocks Fallon deserved to lose Femperial after selling it to Kirby for one dollar. I almost, for a second, expected Kirby to proudly stand by Fallon. I’m glad she didn’t. As for season 3. It would have been nice to see Nicollete’s Alexis take revenge on that evil so and so Adam for pushing her face into a burning fireplace. I felt for her after that. But looking forward to Nu-Alexis doing that. Also hoping a vengeful Steven returns to knock six bells out of Adam for drugging him into dementia and a psych ward.Too bad Nu-Alexis can’t be Heather Locklear, but her life is a hot mess right now. Maybe Marcia Cross. They also need a good female enemy for Michael Michelle’s Dominique. For the life of me I can’t understand why she never interacted with the Carringtons until the end of season 2, and only then with Blake. Big misstep. Monica is no match for her mother as a sparring partner. And the father just disappears for episodes on end. And poor Jeff Colby. He didn’t stand a chance against Adam. Or Dominique. His own revenge plan being used against him lol. Still I’m excited for season 3. Bring it on.
Oh. And loving stuffy Anders. Brilliantly played by a popular Australian soap actor from Neighbours. He makes campy useless Sammy Jo make sense. Otherwise. Big character fail. And that’s on the show AND the actor.
For all it’s campiness thisDynasty is hilarious n fun
The 2nd body is that guy that Blake killed when trying to find out who shot the gun that made Crystal miscarry….we know it was Alexis, but he thought it was his hired goon
Have you ever watched the show before this episode? The other body is the private detective that Alexis framed for killing Mark that Blake beat to death and then dumped in that very lake. It isn’t a mystery.
Also Cristal and Blake have never been married before.

Jacob Young Shares Production Pic of Cast of His New Film Featuring Joan Collins and Nadia Bjorlin
Last month, during a livestream conversation on the Michael Fairman Channel, while promoting Jason Cook’s film, Four for Fun, and featuring soap notables Jacob Young (ex-AJ, AMC, ex-Lucky, GH, ex-Rick, B&B) and Brytni Sarpy (Y&R), Young revealed some intel on his upcoming movie project.
Jacob shared that he was set to direct, produce and star in a Agatha Christie-like murder mystery feature film, Murder Between Friends shooting in Prague.
The actor/director expressed, “I’m flying at the end of the March to Prague to direct, produce and star in a film with Joan Collins (ex-Dynasty). Nadia Bjorlin (ex-Chloe, Days of our Lives) is in it, and Toby Alexander Smith from Eastenders (ex-Gray Atkins). Plus, a couple of my Broadway friends and a very well known Czech actress (Hana Vagnerova). It’s very ‘Knives Out’ without having a hundred million dollars to shoot it, but still will be a lovely film nonetheless.”

Young is currently shooting the film’s principal photography abroad through April 17th.
Over the weekend, Jacob took to his Instagram to share a photo with the cast of the film where pictured is former Dynasty star, Joan Collins (ex-Alexis) and former Days of our Lives star, Nadia Bjorlin (ex-Chloe). In addition, former All My Children star, Trent Garrett (ex-Asher) is seen in director-mode kneeling.
Trent and Jacob are both co-directors of Murder Between Friends. Joan Collins shared the pic on her Instagram citing, “This was the #secret I posted about several weeks ago!”
So, looking forward to seeing Jacob’s film when it is released with Joan, Nadia, and company? Let us know in the comment section.

Now that the CW’s Dynasty has come to its conclusion after five seasons, many have wondered what series star Elizabeth Gillies (ex-Fallon) will be seen in next. Part of the answer was revealed today in casting news via Deadline.
Gillies will star and is the co-executive producer of a new Tubi film called Spread. In it, Liz will take on the role of ambitious and aspiring journalist, who lands a temp job at an adult magazine run by an aging industry king played by Harvey Keitel. The character must reconcile her idealism as she strives to help the company succeed.
Spread is written by Buffy Charlet, who is another of the films Co-EP’s, and is inspired by Charlet’s real-life experience as a temp at Hustler magazine who rose in the ranks to become an editor.
The film also stars two-time Daytime Emmy winner Bryan Craig (ex-General Hospital, Good Trouble).
Look for Spread to drop on Tubi in 2023.
So, intrigued to see Liz and Bryan in Tubi’s new film, ‘Spread’? Comment below.
After five seasons, the final episode of CW’s Dynasty came to its conclusion on Friday night, but not before it delivered another soapy trope – a use of a prosthetic mask (sound familiar Days of our Lives fans?) to hide someone’s true identify.
Here’s what went down: After majordomo Graham (Dan Amboyer) had kidnapped Adam (Sam Underwood), in a shocker, Graham peels off his face! Yup, it was a prosthetic mask and reveals himself to be none other than Steven Carrington (James Mackay)!
After being kept away by Adam for years (he had hidden Steven in a sanitarium and then the place burned down), Steven finally figured out it was Adam who was pulling the strings of his disappearance. Next, came an all-out brawl; where instead of an opportunity to inject Adam with a syringe of some sort of concoction as payback, he almost killed his scheming half-brother. However, Steven didn’t want be a murderer, so he let Adam live to see another day, but told Adam to exile himself from the Carringtons and never return.
With that, and now masked again, Graham meets up with Sam (Rafael de La Fuente) at the hotel bar, where he eventually pulls off his mask to reveal himself as Steven. Kudos to de La Fuente in those scenes who gave us all the feels as Sam is reunited with the man he loves.

Still in another heart-tugger, Fallon (Elizabeth Gillies) comes upon a man sitting at the piano at the Carringtons, and when he turns around, she sees its her brother, Steven. The two, in typical CW Dynasty-style, break into song. It was touchingly played by series star, Gillies along with Mackay. Elsewhere, Alexis and Blake (Grant Show) are trouncing through a horrific storm trying to find Dex. Ultimately, Alexis (Elaine Hendrix) and Dex (Pej Vahdat) reunite, and when a softened Blake returns home, he and Crystal (Daniella Alonso) vow to stay together and cement it with a kiss.
In addition, Amanda (Eliza Bennett) gets a job offer to return to London from her ex-lover, which puts her relationship with Kirby (Maddison Brown) in question. Culhane (Robert Christopher Riley) told Sam that he’ll be moving to LA and selling his part of the hotel business they have together before he marries Nina. Sam doesn’t take that news well and tries to ensure no one else will take Culhane’s half of their business partnership, because he likes working with him so much. Meanwhile, the surrogate, Stacey Moore (Samantha Massell), delivers Fallon and Liam’s (Adam Huber) baby and they welcome their little girl to the dysfunction of the Carrington clan.
Photo:
We are onto the final moments via a six-month time jump and the trajectory of the Carringtons and their extended family become known. Sam presides over Culhane’s wedding to Nina (Felisha Terrell), Liam has written children’s books after his baby girl, while Jeff (Sam Adegoke) is setting up ColbyCo’s new headquarters in Africa, specifically, Nigeria. Fallon had decided to rebrand her company Carrington United, much to the delight of her father. Dominique (Michael Michele) and Alexis are both opening stores right across from each other on Bleecker Street in Manhattan, and it looks as if they will continue their ongoing catfights in the Big Apple. Kirby decides to move to London to be with Amanda.

And … in the ‘payback is a bitch’ column, we see Adam with an English accent working as a veterinarian … taking care of cats! The final moment of the series features a snapshot of the Carringtons during a family photo gathering.
So, what did you think of the season finale of ‘Dynasty’? Let us know in the comment section below. But, first watch a BTS moment with James Mackay and Liz Gillies singing a familiar tune on her Instagram, posted after last night’s finale aired.
