• Matthew Blaisdel : I worked for the man! I know what he can do! Blake Carrington would drive into hell and hand-deliver an invitation to the devil if it suited his purpose. Dammit, you know it and I do, too!

  Walter Lankershim : Sure he would. You know why? Because he's smart, that's why. I mean, it still takes a big man to drive all the way out here and apologize, to admit that he's wrong. And that's my kind of man.

• Matthew Blaisdel : Well, do you think it's clever to come in here, soak up Carrington's booze, and then let these guys try and go into our pocket? Do ya?

  Walter Lankershim : Now if you think I'm drunk, then you're no brighter than they are in there. I let them think that I'm drunk just so they can try to slip me a cold deck. Meanwhile we're getting a good look at their cards. And we're gonna hit 'em with a handful of aces when they reach for the pot. Now, that's the way the game's played.

  Matthew Blaisdel : Well, I'm sorry, Walter. I don't play games.

  Walter Lankershim : Then you better go back to that school of geology, let 'em examine the rocks in your head, because if you don't play the game and play it well, then they're gonna eat you up, that bunch in there. You remember that.
