All language subtitles for Falcon Crest s02e07 The Namesake

I'm sorry this happened. If you want to
keep your place at Falcon Crest, I want

you to do everything, and I mean
everything, to make Melissa happy. I

like being humiliated by your nightly
trips into San Francisco.

Humiliation hasn't even begun yet,
Melissa.

Richard Channing's asking for a fall,
and I want to be there when it happens.

In fact, I want to give him the final
push myself.

What is it? A golden ambulance.

I don't know who you are, but this isn't
funny. Just be grateful you aren't in

your truck.

What do you think?

Overalls for a baby.

Well, why not? It's my first grandson.
I've got a right to spoil him, haven't

You're sure it's going to be a boy?

Well, that's what my mother said.

Are you going to argue with her?

I know some of these things seem awfully
big, but the baby will grow into them.

You'll be surprised.

Lance just seemed to grow overnight.

I have the funny feeling the baby's
going to turn out to be more like his

mother. You should try to get some rest,
Lance.

You deserve it.

I've got a winery to run.

And I've got 50 barrels of Cabernet to
top off.

I'll see you later.

I thought you were working in the
winery.

Well, as a matter of fact, I was
thinking of going out to your father's

vineyards later on to check on things.

Do you think you can stand an afternoon
away from your little girlfriend in San

Francisco?

Laurie Stevens.

I know who she is.

You've been so obvious about her.

I'm surprised you haven't made the
social section of the globe yet.

Well, we will when I marry her.

Angela will never allow that to happen.
I don't think she'll mind as soon as the

results of the paternity test are in.

How's it going with Steve Barton?

He's given me this reading to help
explain his tactics in planning Cole's

defense.

It's fascinating.

Barton's supposed to be here any minute,
and I haven't finished half of this

stuff yet.

I didn't know he was coming over here.

Yeah, he wants to meet Catherine Demery.
I told him I'd take him over there.

Then I'm going with you.

What about your script? I thought you
wanted to get it finished and mail to

Daryl Clayton this week.

Daryl Clayton and the script can wait.
If you and Barton are going over to see

Cole at Catherine Demery's, I want to be
with you.

I can build my own winery right here.

It will take years for a new winery to
become established. I don't care if we

never sell a drop.

I'll start a bidding war in this valley
for all the available grapes and force

Angela Channing to pay more for premium
crops than she ever has before.

Within a year, Falcon Crest will be in a
complete negative cash flow position.

I'm going to have to talk the Board of
Supervisors out of the land first.

Anderson and Costello do Angela's
bidding. She'll convince them for me.

Especially when she hears about the
memorial to her dear departed husband.

After that, we'll only need one more
vote.

Take this property out of the county's
hands.

Put it in my pocket.

Nick Hogan is the only other man on the
board with any economic vulnerability.

But he won't be easy.

I've tried.

Maybe he'll be more responsive to the
personal touch.

I'll pay him a little visit.

Not a cloud in the sky.

I know, but I said it was going to rain,
so I put it up. Okay.

That's it.

No.

Okay.

Hi, Mom.

Dad. Hi. Mr. Barton.

Joe. Hi, Captain. Hi.

Captain, I'd like you to meet Cole's
attorney, Stephen Barton. Captain

Hello. How do you do? Pleasure.

Oh, I guess you'll be wanting to talk
alone.

What's up?

Stephen wants to talk to you a little
bit.

Cole, to a large degree, what happens to
you in court two weeks from now is

going to be up to you.

The district attorney is going to do
everything he can to discredit you.

Are you going to try to bring up your
arrest record in New York?

He's already lining up witnesses to
testify against your character here.

Okay.

I'm ready for that.

What's the big deal?

Mrs. Demery could be a liability.

Does Catherine have to be dragged into
this?

That's not up to us.

Cole, you're living with an older woman
and a 12 -year -old son, and that does

not sit well with juries.

I work here.

You live here.

We're the woman who is practically old
enough to be your... Isn't that our

business? Hers and mine?

No. It's all of our business.

And if you're convicted of murder, it
sure as hell won't do you or Catherine

good at all.

I got work to do.

I thought the doctor told you to stay in
bed.

I was, uh, looking for some stationery.

Do you have any without the Falcon Crest
emblem on it?

Why didn't you ask Charlie to help you?

I didn't want to bother him.

Melissa, until the baby's born, I don't
want you climbing up and down the

stairs.

Did you find out anything interesting?

I'm sorry, I just glanced at it, and I
couldn't put it down.

I didn't realize Philip Erickson had
become more than just a lawyer to you.

Here's some stationery.

Thank you.

Is Lance still out riding?

I didn't know he'd gone out.

With a friend of his, someone by the
name of Laurie Stevens.

Hello, Lewis?

Has my grandson been down at the stable
yet?

Well, if you see him, you call me
immediately.

Oh, that bus is forever.

I would have been here an hour earlier
if I brought my car.

Yeah, but then I wouldn't have been able
to drive you back.

Where are we going?

We're going horseback riding.

There's a little vineyard I've got to
take a look at. And, uh... Lance, coming

to the Tuscany Valley is one thing. I
can't go to Falcons, brother.

I'm sure you can.

Don't put me in the middle of this game
you're playing with Melissa.

Laurie, there is no game.

I just want to be with you.

Look, the stables are a long way from
the house, and nobody will even know

they are.

Come on.

Come on, what do you say?

Okay.

Okay.

You know, Richard, your sudden concern

about my late husband surprises me.

I don't know why it should. He's also my
father.

You could say I've had a rather intense
interest in him all my life.

Besides, there is the bottom line to
consider.

And what is the bottom line?

Profits are up at the paper.

So much so, I need a shelter for some of
the income.

A memorial to Douglas Channing would be
the ideal solution.

But I need your support.

And why should I give it?

Well, for one thing, your daughters have
a vested interest in the New Globe.

I'd hate to see their dividends suffer
simply because you refuse to go along

with me on this.

What did you have in mind?

What about the Douglas Channing Memorial
Garden? Three acres of exotic

landscaping imported from all over the
world.

A living monument.

Not just a slab of concrete stuck in
front of the newspaper building.

If you really want to honor Douglas, you
should go back to the Globe's original

policies and forget about the scandals
and the gossip.

Would you be willing to turn your back
on record -breaking prophets?

Chase isn't going to be easy to
convince.

Oh, Angela?

Yes.

Hello, Chase.

Richard.

Adrian Martoni is threatening to back
out on our deal unless we can come up

$1 ,600 per ton on his Chardonnay. Is
this his usual style?

Chase, we were just talking about that
county property down by Cross Creek. I

understand you want to turn it into a
public park.

That's been the plan for over a year
now.

That's a shame.

The taxpayers, of course, will have to
pay the construction cost.

They'll also have to pay for the upkeep.

That's one reason it's called a public
park.

Well, Richard was saying that the Globe
should buy that property for a memorial

to his father.

Oh, yeah, well, that would be very nice,
but I'm afraid you'd just have to look

elsewhere. Nothing else available, at
least with that kind of visibility.

And I certainly don't want my father's
memory relegated to some unbeaten path.

Douglas does deserve a memorial, Chase.

I'd be the last one to dispute that, but
it is county property.

Hello?

Oh, yes, she is. It's Lewis down at the
stables for you. Tell him I'll be right

down. She'll be right there, Lewis. All
right. And don't make any decisions

until I get back.

You know, Chase, there are...

other supervisors on that board.

I'll get the votes I need with or
without your help.

You're amazing, you know that?

You really have some kind of nerve to be
asking for my help while your scandal

sheep tries to railroad my son.

Believe me, Chase, it's nothing
personal.

I just want to give my readers the
facts.

Well, let me give you some facts.

Before Emma left, she gave me her proxy.

I controlled her holdings in the Globe.

Congratulations.

You get to vote her shares during the
next board meeting. You keep persecuting

my son.

And I'll sue you and your new globe for
everything from harassment to

mismanagement. And win or lose, I'll
keep you tied up in court for the next

years.

You know, it sure doesn't look like it,
but I heard on the radio that it might

rain.

Well, I hope it does.

Cool things off a little bit.

Laurie,

I'd like to speak to my grandson in
private, if you please.

I'll see you again, Mrs. Channing.

You go on ahead.

I'll catch up to you.

What makes you think you can get away
with this?

I remember you telling me that if I
marry Melissa, I can love whoever I

to. Carlo is dead, and the vineyards are
in Melissa's hands at the moment. I

will not have you alienating her.

Well, now, you don't think Melissa has
any intention of handing those vineyards

over to you, do you?

You take Laurie home, and I never want
you to see her again.

That's not the agreement we made.

looking truck.

If you ever decide to sell it, let me
know.

I'm Richard Channing.

Oh, yeah.

Chase Joe Barrett, he called me about
you.

I guess he told you about my plans to
build a memorial for my father.

Yeah.

I hope he didn't talk you out of it.

Didn't have to.

I'm with Chase on this.

I'm beginning to think I don't have any
friends in this valley.

Well, I'll be honest with you, you're
not going to win any popularity

not with the articles you've been
running in the New Globe.

I guess I'm going to have to change my
image.

Getting you to cooperate with me would
be a good start.

You're talking to the wrong guy.

I don't think so.

You're a respected businessman, a leader
in the community.

I think you'll do just fine.

Well, let me make myself clear, pal.

I don't like what you've written about
Chase's family, and I don't want to deal

with you.

I'll be in touch.

Don't bother.

Mr. Spock.

Storm's getting closer.

I'm so glad you're here.

Storms scare me.

Honey,

isn't

it past your bedtime?

Are you going to jail?

Who said that to you?

Bobby Edwards.

He said you killed Mr. O 'Greddy.

That's not true.

That's what I tried to tell him.

But he wouldn't believe me.

Would you like me to tell him?

Wouldn't do any good.

All the other kids are saying the same
thing.

Good night.

If your grandmother asks where you are,
what do you want me to tell her?

Nothing. I took care of that this
afternoon.

The prince turned on his queen.

How did you ever find the courage?

Don't tell me you give a damn. I don't.
I just don't like being humiliated by

your nightly trips into San Francisco.

Humiliation hasn't even begun yet,
Melissa.

A one -night stand is one thing. What I
don't like is this tacky little romance.

Well, it beats a tacky marriage.

We can unite the...

You're starting to sound like my
grandmother. You been spending some time

her lately?

You fool!

You know, you really ought to consider
falling in love yourself, Melissa.

Of course, in your condition, romance
might be out of the question.

Unless you can convince the father of
that baby and see me again.

As far as I'm concerned, you are the
father.

So far, you've managed to convince my
grandmother, but she'll see the truth

enough. I'll have my divorce, and you'll
be the laughingstock of this ballot. I

wouldn't be so sure of that.

I'm positive. You know why?

Because you're a slut, Melissa.

Aren't you confusing me with Laurie?

You stay nice and healthy.

I want that baby ready for those blood
tests.

A mess?

Honey, I expected you home hours ago.

Wouldn't you know, we had a sum -pump
failure at the winery.

Oh.

Cold call?

No, not a word.

Where's Vicki? Oh, she's exhausted. She
went right to bed after dinner.

Oh.

You finished it at last. All right, joke
about it. That's just... I didn't mean

that. I meant... Yeah?

Now things can get back to normal.

Normal.

Jeez. My writing is normal. That is what
I do, and once Cole is cleared, it is

what I'm going to continue doing. All
right, let me read it. All right, you

don't have to read it. Let me read it.
It's not... I want to read it. I want to

read it.

It's late.

I need to talk to Cole.

Cole, you have a guest.

What are you doing here?

The plan.

The marriage.

It's all wrong.

I have to talk to you.

Why me?

Because we left each other once.

Because we had something special.

Had? What about you?

All the time we spent together was a
picnic.

The spring house, it doesn't mean
anything to you.

No, not since you married Lance.

I came here because I have something to
tell you. I'm going to take you back to

town. No, please.

I'm okay.

Catherine?

What is it?

Oh, a golden ambulance.

Just relax.

You'll be fine.

I never made love to anybody that you
call.

The baby's yours.

Melissa's in the hospital. Get over here
right away.

What you doing in the hospital?

You're about to become a father.

Is he on his way? Yes.

Thank you, Cole, for bringing Melissa to
the hospital.

You won't have to wait any longer.

I don't mind.

You're not going to stay up all night,
are you?

Well, it's your fault for writing such a
fascinating script.

All right, come on now. I want the
truth. I mean, I don't care if it causes

marriage.

Well... I don't know a lot about script
writing, but it's darn good.

Really?

I was a little thrown off balance by the
subject matter at first, but...

young man wrongly accused of murder. Oh,
well, listen, it started out as a

family moving from New York to the
country, you know, sound a little

And then, uh, this whole thing happened
with Cole, and this script just, it had

a life of its own.

I get the feeling you were trying to
clear Cole all by yourself.

If I could do that, uh...

It's a boy.

How is she, Doctor?

Oh, she'll be fine.

I'm more concerned about the child.

I got here as fast as I could.

How's Melissa?

Oh, your wife's fine.

And you have a son who arrived a little
sooner than we expected.

Is the baby going to be okay?

It's too early to tell. The big thing
now is the possibility of a secondary

infection.

He's so very susceptible.

What precautions have you taken?

Everything we can think of. But no
matter how careful we are, there's

risk.

I'll keep you posted.

Thank you, Doctor.

I hope you're satisfied.

Well, don't be.

I guess I didn't need those natural
childbirth classes after all.

I didn't want this to happen.

I hope you believe that.

Did you see the baby?

I came to see you first.

Are you still going through with that
paternity test?

Let's not worry about that right now,
okay?

I'm naming him Joseph.

After your great -great -grandfather.

Angela will appreciate that.

You take it.

What is it?

My name's Woody Murdoch. I just happened
to be driving through town and I caught

a couple of kids firing pellet guns at
your store.

They managed to do a pretty good number
on your front door.

Damn, I better get down there.

I called the police.

They're on their way. I appreciate you
calling. Thanks a lot.

Honey, what is it?

Trouble at the store.

Go back to sleep.

What kind of trouble?

I don't know. Some kids or something.

Don't worry. Go back to sleep.

You know, ever since Moisa told us that
she was pregnant, this is all I've been

able to think about.

The thought of holding him in my arms.

Come on, Joseph.

It's getting late.

Oh, Mother.

Oh, now we're going to give him the best
care we can find. I know.

Joseph.

It's a good name.

Solid. I hope he has more of the
original Joseph Gioberti in him than

seems to have inherited.

I just don't understand why Melissa left
the house. Well, if Lancer stayed home

like he was supposed to, we wouldn't be
here tonight.

I'm sorry this happened.

Well, between Laurie's visit to Falcon
Crest and the way you've been treating

Melissa, I think apologies are an
afterthought.

I didn't want this to happen.

If you want to keep your place at Falcon
Crest, I want you to do everything, and

I mean everything, to make Melissa
happy.

You've almost got the Agretti vineyards.

Isn't that enough for you?

Hello? Hello, Nick.

Woody Murdoch.

Glad to see you could make it tonight.

Look, Murdoch, I don't know who you are,
but this isn't funny.

Oh, it's not. Believe me. Hey, just be
grateful you aren't in your truck.

By the way, try to be a little more
cooperative in the future.

Cooperative about what?

Who are you?

That's all I can tell you.

I heard about it last night.

Must have been a shock.

Yeah, it was.

Where'd you get the car?

I picked it up from a collector in
Oakland.

He can retire on what I paid him for it.

These old antiques are worth a fortune.

Yeah, tell me about it.

I can't imagine why anyone would want to
do this.

No, neither can I.

Couldn't even get full insurance.

The aggravating thing is, even if they
make an arrest, you'll never see a dime.

You're lucky you weren't in it.

What was that you just said?

Nick.

You know, as nice a toy as this thing
is, I might be willing to part with it.

What do you think?

Take a ride and have a talk.

You drive.

Well, well, well, look who's here.

Morning. Morning.

How about some breakfast?

No, I'll just have some coffee.

I shouldn't have let you sleep in this
morning.

Must have gotten in awfully late last
night.

Yeah, I had to take Melissa to the
hospital.

What were you doing with her?

Well, we... It's a long story.

She came over to Catherine's. That must
have been interesting.

She had a baby boy.

She did?

I didn't think she was due for weeks. Is
she all right?

She's still at the hospital.

Why did Melissa come to you last night?

Yeah, that seems awfully... I'd rather
not get into it. Look, I should have

slept in after all. Excuse me.

Cole.

Well, honey, I know that something's
wrong, and I've just... He obviously

to keep it to himself. He'll tell us
when he's ready.

Hello?

No, what happened?

Was anybody... No, I'm surprised he
didn't call me himself.

I'll stop by there on my way in. Thanks,
Max.

There was some kind of explosion at...

Hogan's store last night. Anybody hurt?

No, but apparently there was a lot of
damage. I think I'll stop by and see if

there's anything I can do to help.

Uh, can I get a lift? There's a sale in
town I'd like to go to.

Next is my daughter, Victoria.

Nick Hogan, we work together on the
board of supervisors. Oh, we already

each other.

We've run together a few times.

He's good.

And she's getting better all the time, a
real competitive spirit.

I didn't know you were a runner.

Oh, yeah.

And I didn't know he was on the board of
supervisors.

You never told me you work with my dad.

I never made the connection.

Sorry about what happened to your truck.

Yeah, so am I.

Well, I can walk from here.

We'll see you later. All right, nice.

What happened?

There's been a lot of vandalism in the
neighborhood lately.

Yeah.

Kids from the city, maybe, huh?

Probably.

Sheriff said he'd keep his eyes open.

Look, let me get my work clothes on and
help you clean up here.

Thanks, Chase.

Everything's under control here. I'll
catch up with you at the board meeting,

huh?

I didn't expect you back so early.

Joseph's condition hasn't changed at
all, and Melissa's going to stay there

the hospital with him until he's
released.

I'm going to the city.

What's your hurry? I want to check on
those invoices from last month.

Well, that won't be necessary.

Philip Erickson will take care of that
from now on. Your responsibility is the

winery. Paula Spinoza can take care of
the winery.

You're not to leave Falcon Crest until
your son is out of danger.

Except, of course, to visit Melissa.

I don't believe this.

Oh, don't look so unhappy.

This is an opportunity for you to
reflect on your role as a father.

That baby is not mine.

You'll find out soon enough.

This meeting of the Tuscany County Board
of Supervisors is hereby called to

order.

I'm awfully sorry I'm late, gentlemen.

We were just discussing the new globe
proposal to buy the Cross Creek

Oh, yes. Well, frankly, I can't think of
a more worthwhile project for this

board to support.

And I hereby move that we vote to
commence negotiations immediately with

Richard Channing for the purpose of
transferring ownership of the county

property of Cross Creek to the new San
Francisco globe.

A second.

I object. Now, we haven't given this any
study at all.

Sorry, Chase. Motion has been called.

All those in favor? Aye. Aye.

Aye.

Aye.

Can we talk?

Yeah, come on in.

I'd like to have a baby boy.

So I heard.

Sit down.

Well, you know, it was really strange
waking up this morning without you. I

guess I'm kind of getting used to you.

Yeah, I know.

When I woke up at home, it took me a
couple of minutes to get my bearings.

Well, let's get your feet on the ground
and go for a picnic. What do you say?

I can't.

I came by last night and I sat out in
front thinking about you and me and

been happening.

This is goodbye, isn't it?

I want us to be friends, Catherine.

I thought everything was going so well.

seemed happy, and I was so happy.

What happens?

We're there at the time I really needed
you.

Right now, I need my family.

Is it Melissa?

No.

Come on, Cole. I saw you looking at her
last night.

Please don't lie to me.

She's part of it.

with the truth.

Thank you.

See, I thought it was something I said.

I was awake all night last night going
over every move I've made, everything

I've said, trying to figure out where I
hurt you or where I offended you. No,

it's not you.

It's not even Melissa.

It's me, Catherine.

And I didn't know what to say or do.

Well, Paul, you could have done the
decent thing. You could have come in

house and started an argument.

Did that make you feel any better?

No.

I'm sorry, Catherine.

You better go.

I thought you'd be on a Falcon Crest.

Not today.

Today I need this vineyard.

How'd the board meeting go?

You're in a good mood.

I'll tell you something. I don't know
how and I don't know when, but Richard

Channing's asking for a fall, and I want
to be there when it happens.

In fact, I want to give him the final
push myself.

He got to Nick Hogan.

Think he was responsible for that
explosion?

I wouldn't put it past him.

I was wondering if you could still use
an extra pair of hands around here.

I want to come home.

I'll get to work.

Dr. Howell.

Is there anything we can do?

Thank you.

It's Joseph. He's running a very high
fever.

The doctor thinks it's serious.

It's because of his premature birth.

His resistance is very low.

I'm going to the hospital.

If anything happens to that baby, I hold
you responsible.

What was that? Next on Falcon Prep. How
dare you at a time like this defile her

father's grave?

So we need your help. My baby's dying!

I can't think of anything but that right
now. Just leave us alone!

Unless we can find him within 24 hours,
there's going to be a warrant issued for

his arrest.

At least I'll be free. If you go now,
you'll never be free again. We've been

trying antibiotics, but he's just not
responding.

Well, maybe God forgives. If my baby
dies, I'll make you pay for this the

of your life.
