Storyline[]

Season 8[]

Dylan shows up unexpected surprising Nathan. Nathan is not happy to see him telling him, "you gave up Allie years ago." Dylan said he was ashamed he didn't even recognize Allie and said he wasn't looking for Nathan or Allie but saw an article about Nathan's latest rescue in the shoot out during a robbery. He admitted he wasn't there to get Allie but instead demanded $1,000 promising he'd never see him or Allie ever again. When Dylan appears again trying to talk to Little Jack, Nathan promises Dylan that he'd get him the money.

Nathan gets the money from Lucas and goes to meet Dylan alone. He rides there and is suddenly pulled off his horse. He is beaten up because Dylan set up a trap for Nathan. Dylan arrives, kicks Nathan who is already beaten up on the ground and steals his horse riding away. Newton, Nathan's horse, is found by Nathan and Nathan uses it to get home.

Nathan finds Dylan and a bunch of Mounties arrest him. Nathan admits he knew Dylan would ambush him but wanted a reason to have him arrested. [1]

Season 11[]

In 1921, Allie began wondering about Dylan, her biological father, due to an off-handed remark made by Nathan. She wanted to meet him, but Nathan refused to allow her to go, knowing it would greatly upset her to see her father in prison. Allie took matters into her own hands and went to Granville Prison to see Dylan. He refused to see her, leaving her in tears.[2]
