...Smith, asking whether Marcinkus was under U.S. investigation as well. Wilson was told by the Justice Department that his actions were inappropriate.

On Dynasty's season ender, the jailhouse door clanged shut on sultry, scheming Alexis (Joan Collins), who is charged (gasp!) with murder, while a car driven by a delirious Fallen Colby (Pamela Sue Martin) on her wedding day careered out of control, heading (gulp!) straight...
