Dex slept with Alexis' arch-enemy Sable and with her daughter Amanda. Which one irritated her more?
Dunno about 9th season. But if I were Alexis, I would have been more upset when my husband slept with my daughter.

That's a tough one. Amanda sleeping with Dex would surely upset and anger Alexis. But considering the situation between Alexis and Sable, Dex sleeping with her arch enemy would surely have cut deeper and in Alexis' head this could probably have been the bigger betrayal.
Amanda-betrayed.Sable-irritated.
Of course she didn't like the idea of Dex and Sable together, but she could always snidely accuse him of downgrading himself for sleeping with "that witch".
But Amanda is much younger and more beautiful - for a woman (especially a vain woman like Alexis) this hurts twice as much, I think.

I always wished that Alexis or Sable wouldve referred to the Amanda/Dex situation in s9
That wouldve been cool
Sable: Well alexis it's not like it's the first time Dex slept with a member
Of you family, we heard him and Amanda imagine that you own daughter
Betraying her mother tut tut tut, my daughters would never do that but then
Thats because they respect me
It was a much bigger fall out when Dex slept with Amanda. Even though the Sable/Alexis history was interesting in season 9, it seemed so late in the game. The rivalry and history hadn't been established long enough to warrant a big impact from Alexis in regards to Sable stealing her man. Plus, I agree with "willie" about it being a bigger deal with it being a younger woman stealing Dex. I think that aspect affected Alexis more than it being her daughter.
There were some good scenes between Alexis and Amanda after that affair when Amanda was trying to get back on Mom's good side. Alexis wasn't having it. I'll never forget her line to Amanda. Something about "don't take it like a child, take it like a woman." I believe in was in reference to Alexis throwing her out of her life. Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that one. It's been a while since I watched that season.
Alexis didn't even mind Amanda's "schoolgirl" fantasies about her stepfather, and she laughed when she found out that Fallon had almost slept with her could-be-father Cecil.
So at least we know it wasn't the kinky aspect that bothered her (but she never pretended to be a prude anyway).
Did she try to install Amanda in Moldavia to get her away from Dex? Or Blake? Or maybe herself? (!!)

Oh, already with Amanda's appearance in Denver did she try to keep Amanda first from Blake then from Dex when she grew suspicious about them two getting too close. She even proposed to Amanda to live with Blake whom Alexis still claims not to be Amanda's father at this moment.
That was very childish of her. Because she knew everyone else already knew, and yet she sticked to her lacklustre statement - "he was a ski instructor and it doesn't matter who he is and I don't want to talk about it anymore, now leave me alone". And then she chews on another bon-bon or caviar dipped olive.
BUT she told Blake they had 4 beautiful children.
Imagine if Blake had had a child with another woman - before, during or shortly after his marriage to Alexis.
Do you think she would hate that child?

Sean Rowan was origionally going to be Blakes son from another relationship after Alexis but obviously before Krystle
But the writers for some reason wrote him as Josephs son I suppose by s8 they needed to refer to past characters who no longer had a place in the Dynasty of the late 1980s I think it wouldve been. Far more interesting if he were a Carrington
A bit OT at the mention of Sean Rowan: wouldn't have it been an interesting storyline if Sean was the son of Blake and Joseph's wife that was reputedly some sort of a nymphonaniac ?
I would have liked to see a child of Blake's from another relationship show up. After all, he was what, 29-30 when he married Alexis and she was all of 16 or 17? Plenty of time for him to have had at least a couple of kids by other women, whether he acknowledged them or not.
That would have been a REAL kick in the teeth for her, to find out that a child of Blake's from before their marriage had shown up and demanded to be acknowledged. Especially if he had deliberately kept the knowledge of said child/children from her during their entire marriage.
She'd certainly have reason to hate that child, and wouldn't bother to hide it.
A child born after their divorce, but before his marriage to Krystle? That's a bit iffy. If she thought that child was out to usurp her children's places in Blake's heart (what there was of it), she'd hate it. Especially when it came to the Carrington fortune. She'd really want that for Steven and Fallon.
I will say one thing for her, she, at least from what I recall, never said anything disparaging about Kristina. Well, except for that one incident where she was gossiping with her facialist about the pregnancy, and got a big glob of facial mud in the kisser for her efforts.

She knew that Krystle would be super paranoid about the pregnancy, and that she wouldn't get away with it a second time.
Personally, if I had been in Krystle's place, I'd have beaten her face in with a baseball bat until she was unrecognizable, and had to spend Cecil's entire fortune on reconstructive surgery. Making sure to burn the bat in the furnace so as to get rid of the evidence.
But that's just me.
