Trivia

This is the first episode to feature what would become a hugely popular Dynasty (1981) staple - a catfight between Krystle and Alexis. Their first "contretemps", as Alexis would refer to it, takes place in her studio and is a clear victory for Krystle who finishes it with the classic line "If you want a rematch, just whistle. If you can."

Goofs

During the fight, Alexis grabs a glass vase and tries to hit Krystle with it, but ends up shattering it on the floor instead. She then puts her hand directly on the broken glass and rolls over the shards, but she isn't cut at all.

Quotes

Claudia Blaisdel Carrington: You've made a prostitute out of me.
Cecil Colby: I taught you how to use sex for gain. And it apparently upsets you.
Claudia Blaisdel Carrington: It disgusts me.
Cecil Colby: How naive you are for a bright young woman, Claudia. Don't you know that if you want something in this world, you have to pay for it?
