Beverly Hills 90210/Kelly & Dylan

Question
Hi.  In the first episode of Season 6, when Kelly finds out Dylan is investigating his father's death, she wants him to be careful and says "I couldn't bear if anything happened to you."  My question is, didn't she say the exact same dialogue to Dylan towards the end of Season 10?  If I remember correctly, Kelly said it when she found out Dylan didn't go surfing (she originally thought he may have died in a surfing accident).  If I'm wrong, can you tell me what she said?  Thanks!

Answer
Hi Sarah,

Kelly doesn't repeat the same phrase at the end of S10, but she does say the following in 10.25 ("I'm Happy For You ... Really"):

"I thought I'd lost you [...] Thank god you're okay." (to Dylan, on the phone, after thinking he had died)

(At the Peach Pit)
K: "A surfer drowned at Point Doom.  Donna told me you were up there."
D: "I wasn't."
K: "Just the thought that that could have been you ..."

And, to Donna, outside the Beach Apt, "I was so scared, I couldn't breathe.  I just kept hearing his name over and over, like, screaming in my head."

Thanks for the question!

All the best,

Mel

Can Dylan solve quadratic equations? What makes up a "mega-burger"? If an answer exists, I probably know it. Whether your question is general, begging the context of all 10 seasons, or completely inane, feel free to drop me a line either way. I will provide episode reference numbers for each response and plan to have some fun with this. Trivia quizzes often need correction, and publications will get their plotlines/characters/relationships mixed up too. I accept dialogue/scene requests, but please limit your inquiry to 1-2 per question. I only know music from the original broadcasts/reruns, not the DVDs. Been a fan since 1990 and didn't miss a beat.

Experience

Well, I began watching "Beverly Hills, 90210" at the tender age of 9 and a half, during its original run. By 11, I was a huge fan; 13, obsessed; 14, growing bitter. I don't like S6 - S10 as much as Seasons 1 - 5. But, technically, I still watch all of them in some way. Do this for 20 years and you'll remember the darndest things.

Education/Credentials
I'd like to say I've earned a "degree" on the life and times of the original eight, with specific concentration on Seasons 1 thru 5, any Jack McKay drama, Dylan/Kelly together or apart, and the guest stars of 1992-1994. Season 4, I think, was the best and strikingly different from any other. My only weakness might be later-season 'stand-in' characters like Matt and Noah, and the ever-changing ownerships of The AfterDark.
