30 million.

That's what Peter ripped off.

30 million dollars?

He tricked you, Grandmother.

You haven't heard the end of this,
Sheriff.

I suppose next thing you'll want to go
ahead with our wedding plans.

I wouldn't marry you if you were the
last man on earth.

I, Angela, take you, Peter, to be my
husband.

It was a horrible experience.

He dragged me onto the yacht and I've
been floating around ever since.

You know what the sea air does to my
sinuses.

You and Peter didn't get married?

No, we didn't.

And we won't. I knew Peter was lying
when he told us you were in Europe.

He said he was protecting me from the
law.

Strange way of going about it.

Well, he kept me prisoner on the yacht
while he came up here to clear things

I felt certain he'd say something to
you.

He didn't confide in any of us. How did
you get here?

He sent a helicopter for me with a note.

And the note says that I'm to meet him
at the sheriff's office tomorrow.

I assume that my legal problems are
over.

Well, aren't they?

Don't tell me they haven't dropped those
hijacking charges.

Angela, I'm afraid the only thing that's
dropped around here is your bank

balance. I'm afraid Peter was not so
much interested in obtaining your

as in embezzling your money.

30 million.

That's what Peter ripped off.

30 million dollars?

Greg, why didn't you stop him? Well,
until a few hours ago. He had your power

attorney. Well, I had to give it to
someone.

I mean, I couldn't run Falcon Crest from
the middle of the ocean.

And I figured he was rich enough that he
wouldn't bother stealing from me. He

tricked your grandmother.

And he made off with a damn fortune.

Knowing that when you came back...

You'd have your hand so tied trying to
stay out of jail, you wouldn't be able

go after him.

What is that ridiculous chair doing
here?

Oh, Peter said that yours made him feel
uncomfortable. Oh, he did? Well, get rid

of it.

Immediately.

Sheriff Gilmore?

Angela, what are you doing?

This is Angela Channing.

No, I won't tell you where I am. I'm
going to tell you where I'm going to be

tomorrow morning at 9 o 'clock.

In your office, turning myself in.

Good night, Sheriff.

Well, it's been an exhausting day.

And tomorrow, it's going to be worse.

So, I'm going to bed.

Good night. Good night.

Thanks for letting me know, Floyd. I
appreciate it.

Bad news?

Angela's back.

Called Gilmore a few minutes ago, told
him she'd surrendered to the law first

thing in the morning. Ah, then she must
have found a way to beat the charges.

Well, I don't know. With Aaron Jones
turning state's evidence against her, I

don't know. As far as I'm concerned,
she's as good as convicted.

I wonder how she's going to react when
she finds out we pried some of her

suppliers away while she was gone.

You know she'll put the pressure on some
of them to come back to us. Nobody's

better at putting pressure on than
Angela.

Yeah, but how much arm twisting can she
do from a jail cell?

Ah, you're here bright and early.

And uninvited.

I suppose it's a habit from my beginning
as a simple fisherman.

I often made my best catch at daybreak.

I'm not sure your little quaint analogy
is all that pleasant. That's from my

point of view, you understand.

Face it, my friend, I've already got my
hook in you.

Whether I throw you back or fry you for
my supper is entirely up to you.

Have you spoken with our mutual friend?

I have.

And we are in agreement.

As long as you agree in writing.

Not to foreclose on Tuscany Downs. Well,
I've already modified the loan

document, postponing the balloon payment
for another year. This is a letter of

agreement to that effect, contingent on
certain consideration from your part.

Well,

I'd rather have the loan document.

Now, to be absolutely sure that we're in
complete accord, I would like to meet

with our mutual friend.

You've already met with her. Oh, I don't
want to leave anything to chance.

Shall we say within the hour in my suite
at the Tate Hotel?

I don't have any choice, do I?

Wasn't that Peter Stavros?

What's he doing here?

Richard.

If I tell you, it would just be one more
piece of information you'd give to

Terry.

Why are you saying that? That is not
true.

We both know it's true.

It's like we both know that you haven't
been yourself lately.

Apparently, you spent a good part of the
time being somebody named Monica.

Who told you that?

It doesn't matter.

The point is, your problems are a lot
more serious than you've admitted to me.

Or to yourself.

It's time you do something about them.

Richard, look, I would never let
anything interfere with my work for you.

don't believe that.

I don't think you believe it.

I want you to take a leave of absence.

Richard, I can't. I mean, the work is
the only thing that's keeping me sane.

sorry.

You are one of the best attorneys I've
ever had.

But I cannot afford any more breaches of
confidence.

You get your life together, and then
we'll talk.

Meanwhile, consider it a paid
sabbatical.

I don't want your charity, Richard.
Thank you very much. I wish

you luck.

I think you're going to need it.

Right over here, Mrs. Channing, I need
to get a couple of pictures.

Oh, I don't want to be treated like a
common criminal.

Better do what the man says.

Well, I don't suppose I'll be released
until you get your $50 ,000.

That's the way it works.

Hold still, please.

Turn to your left.

One is enough.

This isn't for your driver's license,
Mrs. Channing.

Well, what are you waiting for? Go get
the money.

Yes, ma 'am.

I'll be waiting here.

As a matter of fact, we have another
place where you're supposed to do your

week. Right this way, please, Mr. Chan.

Well, I certainly hope it's more
comfortable than your office.

Mr. Chan.

this? Who are all these people?

It's the women's holding cell.

Only woman to play them.

You haven't heard the end of this,
Sheriff.

Right.

Big idea. That was my last cigarette.

This cell is becoming a no -smoking
area.

but I have to be in court at 11.

Oh, please go down.

I admit I get a little worried when my
lawyer volunteers to make a house call.

What's so urgent?

You can relax.

This is good news about your winery
plans.

What plans? Right now it's just a dream
with no money to put it together.

We've been approached by another legal
firm representing a party who heard

your ambitions.

Who is it?

They're playing it pretty close to the
vest right now, but whoever they're

acting for... is willing to put up all
the money you need in return for 50 % of

the venture.

Oh, I don't know. This sounds like
something Peter Stavros or Richard

would pull to suck me into a deal that
I'll hate later. I've received written

assurances that if this unnamed party is
unacceptable to you, you can get out of

it any time you say.

What do you think I should do?

What's the best deal you could hope for?

If you really want to build your own
winery and get out from under your

dependence on Falkencrest...

I'd say go for it.

I think that's what my father would say,
too.

This is his dream.

It's finally going to happen.

First and last month's rent and your
security deposit.

There you go.

Thanks. And there are your keys, Mr.
Wainwright. Thank you.

Oh,

by the way, would you mind telling me
how close and near his neighbor is?

Uh, that would be the Taylor cabin about
two miles down the road.

Great. Great. I'm trying to finish a
novel. I need the isolation.

Won't you get lonely out here all by
yourself?

No. No, the lady in my life is joining
me real soon.

Well, good luck.

Enjoy the place, and welcome to the
Tuscany Valley.

Thank you.

How time you let me out of that
hellhole.

Am I doing my job, Miss Channing?
Reardon took his own sweet time bringing

bail money, too.

Reardon didn't post your bail.

He did.

Angela, my dearest, I'm sorry. Don't
speak to me, Peter Stavros.

Sheriff, take me back to my cell.

What? You heard me. I will not accept
bail money from that person.

What are you saying?

Forget it. Your bail's been paid and
posted. You're out of here. Goodbye.

Oh, you've got some nerves showing up
here.

There's one thing I'll swear.

I'm going to get Angela's $30 million
back if I have to sue you in every court

in this country, in Europe... This is
hardly the time or place to... That is

just the beginning.

By the time I'm through with you, you're
going to wish you hadn't been born.

You embezzler.

That's what you think, Angela?

That I embezzled your money? That's what
she knows.

So will the whole world soon enough.

It belongs to you.

Take it.

Is it my money? No.

Well, you can run, but you can't hide,
Peter Stavros.

Andrea.

These papers, right?

I don't care what they are. I'm not
going to accept another gift from... No,

no. If I understand this correctly, he's
just bought the mortgage on touchscreen

downs.

What? In your name.

What would I want with that?

Oh, that's what I get for giving him my
power of attorney.

Now he's got me in bed with Richard
Channing.

Who's at the door?

Special delivery.

You know anything about this?

No. Oh, come on. It's not from you?

No. Really?

Looks like somebody's been to a garage
sale. Is there an inscription?

You know what this is?

This is an English first edition of
Dante's Divine Comedy.

I don't write in something like this.
It's a collector's item.

A collector if you've got money to burn
it. Is there a card or anything to say

what's wrong?

No. Not a clue.

Weird.

Spooky.

That'll be a cordon a half an hour.

Dwayne's back from his long haul.

I don't have the time or the inclination
to deal with him.

Mrs. Channing, welcome home.

Where did you get a key to the front
door?

Emma gave it to me.

Any objections?

Now, simmer down.

Dwayne is living here.

Since when?

Since I asked him.

It was either that or Emma was moving in
with me.

Don't tell me this is going to be an
omen of the way my day will end.

I'll see you later.

Oh, just a minute.

Why don't you take him with you?

I understand that Miss Jones has turned
state's evidence, and I'm sure that

Duane would love to hear her rake me
over the coals in front of the whole

No, thanks. I'll read about it in
tomorrow's newspaper.

You do that.

Miss Jones, would you please tell the
court the events leading up to the

hijacking of a truckload of Gioberti
wine?

Yes. A few days prior to the hijacking,
I received a call from Mrs. Angela

Channing. She indicated she had a
business proposition to discuss, and

please come to Falcon Crest?

Excuse me. Actually, I didn't want to
go, because Lemuel had warned me not to

undertake any new projects. Lemuel.

I don't recall you mentioning anyone
named Lemuel. Oh, didn't I?

I should have.

You see, Lemuel is my most important
advisor.

But that day I tended to discount what
he told me on account of I knew he was

mad at me for accidentally stepping on
his tail.

You know how ouchy cats get about their
tails.

Miss Jones, I must warn you not to make
light of these proceedings.

Oh, absolutely not, Your Honor. Can we
get right to your meeting with Mrs.

Channing?

Well, before I made a bodily visit to
Falcon Crest, I decided to make an out

-body visit.

You know, to check the layout.

Your Honor, we are clearly dealing with
the ravings of a disordered mind.

Miss Jones, I give you one last chance
to present your testimony in a true and

forthright manner.

You're right on the edge of a contempt
of court citation.

I'm telling the truth.

Mrs. Channing had that wine hijacked.
There's no doubt.

And did she hire you to perform the
hijacking?

No.

She hired me to do background checks on
some new employees.

But I knew about the hijacking.

You see, I'm psychic.

That's why I'm such a good private
investigator.

witness that people have to offer.

Your Honor, she's our only witness.

You're moved, Mr. Reardon.

Well, I have to move for a dismissal,
Your Honor.

Miss Jones, you were promised immunity
from prosecution for your testimony here

today. You've succeeded in making a
mockery of this court.

The case against Angela Channing is
dismissed.

Obviously, somebody got to Miss Jones.

You know what I think?

Angela and or Reardon and or Stavros got
to Miss Jones.

Let's just hope your name doesn't belong
among the and ors, Richard.

You know damn well that woman the same
as we are. Prosecute her.

Forget it.

No corroboration, no case.

Chalk it up to another.

Example of myopic justice.

I think you know who you have to thank
for that.

Greg, I have to find him.

Up to you.

Not a word. I only came back to pick up
the rest of my belongings left behind

when I moved out.

My plane is waiting for me in the city.
Can you move aside and let me go in

peace? You bought that mortgage to force
Richard to buy off Miss Jones, didn't

you? You didn't give us a clue.

Why don't you tell us what you had in
mind?

I didn't want to involve either of you
or myself in what might be considered

suborning a witness.

That's why I had Richard do it.

At any rate, it's obvious, isn't it,
Angela?

If you haven't learned to trust me by
now, you never will.

Peter, I... Excuse me.

Peter. I forgive you for taking me
hostage the way you did.

You forgive me?

You should be begging my forgiveness on
your knees.

I don't beg.

And anyway, how do you know I couldn't
have gotten out of that little jam all

myself?

Goodbye, Angela.

Oh, but Peter, I... I'm asking you to...
Forgive me?

I'll take it under consideration.

I suppose next thing you'll want to go
ahead with our wedding plans.

You?

I wouldn't marry you if you were the
last man on earth.

I, Angela, take you, Peter, to be my
husband.

I, Angela, take you, Peter, to be my
husband.

I promise to be true to you. I promise
to be true to you. In good times and in

bad. In good times and in bad.

In sickness and in health.

In sickness and in health.

I will love you and honor you.

And I will love you and honor you.

All the days of my life. All the days of
my life.

You have declared your consent before
the church.

May the Lord in his goodness strengthen
your consent and fill you both with his

blessings.

What God has joined, man must not
divide.

Have the rings, please.

May the Lord bless these rings as the
sign of your mutual and lasting

Peter, you may kiss your bride.

Now, before we continue with the Mass, I
think it would be a good idea for

everybody to come up and congratulate
this newly married couple.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Oh, darling.

Julia.

Oh.

I'm so glad the nuns over at the convent
said you could come. Oh, well, I

wouldn't have missed it for the world.
You know I always enjoy your weddings.

Peter, my daughter, Julia.

Hello. Congratulations.

Thank you. Thank you, my dear.

Richard.

Oh, what is this? An impromptu board
meeting?

Something like that. May we join you?

Well, of course.

What's on the agenda?

Dad and I have been talking.

Now that Angela's back in business,
we're going to need to line up every top

harvest we can get our hands on.

Your boys are doing fine. You don't need
me to finalize your deals, do you?

There is one deal we need you for. Hello
there.

You're not discussing business behind a
little woman's back, are you? Wouldn't

dream of it.

How nice to have all my loved ones in
attendance.

Now, what were you saying, Chase?

We need a superior crop.

The two top -quality harvests in the
valley are Melissa's and Paolo

Too bad old Paolo hates the Gioberti so
much. I'd write him off if I were you.

We can't afford that, not if we want to
compete with Angela.

Now, Bellini has started to trust me. He
needs to trust my partner.

So why don't you and I sit down with
him? You offer your heartfelt apologies

the way you handled that first encounter
with him, and perhaps he'd be willing

to sell to us.

What a sweet idea.

Just hold on here a minute. There was
nothing wrong with that last encounter.

Now, Mr.

Bellini just chose to misinterpret what
was a very generous offer.

No doubt.

Why don't you spell it out for him? With
witnesses so no one will misinterpret

anyone else's intentions.

What do you say?

Look.

For the sake of our esteemed
partnership, you understand.

Our family ties.

All of that good stuff, brother.

I suppose I could find it in my heart to
restate my position.

Good. I'll sign it up.

Good.

Richard Channing.

Apologize. Now, that is one party I
would love to crash.

All we need now is our mystery person's
signature.

Should be here any minute.

Excuse me.

The gentleman says he's expecting.

Show him in.

So, uh, you're my new partner.

Unless you object.

Mr. Bellman, I presume.

Eric Stavros. Of course, Mr. Stavros.

You two know each other.

Uh, somewhat.

Well, what is it, yes or no?

It's...

I'll take this back to the office and
start the wheels moving.

Pleasure meeting you, Mr. Stafford.
Likewise, sir. Thank you, Frank.

Did I miss

the joke?

I can't figure it out. When I try to use
my feminine wiles to get you to back my

project... Yeah, you got nowhere.

Because I don't consider sex a proper
business incentive.

Even if the offer comes from a woman who
attracts me as much as you do. So this

is strictly a business arrangement.

Now, did I say that? No.

What I want is for you to understand
that I will not be controlled or

manipulated by your charms.

Oh.

I'm convinced.

Good. Because I believe we'll make
fantastic business partners.

And if something more should develop,
it'll be like icing on the cake.

Well, I'm glad we're in business
together, partner. Let's make it

As my father likes to say, a handshake
agreement isn't worth the paper it's

written on.

But a contract filled with a kiss, now
that's another matter entirely.

Oh, I'm sorry, but I have to make it
clear from the start that I won't be,

was it you said, controlled or
manipulated by your charms.

Partner.

Hi, Mom. Hi.

Mother and Peter get away all right?

Like lovebirds.

This came for you earlier today, and I
couldn't help noticing it's from Paris.

Oh.

That's beautiful.

It wasn't my going -away present.

How can I ever begin to thank you for
all your help in getting my new career

started?

I'm sorry to break the news like this.

And the newspaper story was true.

I'm so sorry.

Elder.

Where are you going?

Damned if I know.

But I guarantee you, I'm not going to
come back here feeling the same way I do

now.

We appreciate your coming here today,
Mr. Bellini.

Especially after all that's happened.

My earlier meeting with you, sir, showed
me there is at least one Gioberti who

is a man of honor.

Of course, seeing Mr.

Channing here,

I'm glad we're not meeting in my home.

Oh, there you go, letting your
imagination run rampant.

Chase and I would like very much to buy
your harvest, Mr. Bellini.

Would you sell to us or not?

I gave you my answer to that once.

However, I'd like to know, sir, what
dirty tricks you have in store for me

time.

Now, maybe.

Just maybe.

My approach might have been a little
overzealous, but where's your sense of

humor, Bellini? It was all in a good
cause.

Your heart's not in the winemaking
business anymore anyway, and you know

bet you'd like to retire, travel the
world, add to that art collection of

Sell us your harvest, Mr. Bellini.

Let us make a wine that we can all be
proud of.

And for God's sakes, don't let some
stupid old feud get in the way of what's

best for all of us. Right, Chase?

You do have a point.

But my harvest commands top dollar. I
will pay you the highest price.

And all of our dealings will be above
board. I give you my word.

As a matter of fact, why don't you
observe step by step the making of our

so you can be assured your vineyard
continues to have the high reputation it

deserves?

I trust you, Che Gioberti.

It's a deal.

You've got...

My harvest.

Thank you.

Begging your pardon, Mr.

Channing, a change of heart or no, I'd
feel safer if you kept your

distance.

See, it all seemed to start with the
suicide.

I suppose you read about it in the
papers. It was all over the place.

That must have been very painful for you
to lose your father.

I lost Daddy years ago.

When he sneaked into my bedroom when I
was a little girl.

How long did this molestation go on?

A long time.

Until I knew enough to say no.

And then when I finally pushed him out
of my life, I thought that that was it.

thought it was over.

I thought I was finally rid of him.

I convinced myself he would never, ever
touch me again.

And then he killed himself.

While I was listening on the telephone.

He killed himself and then it was
like...

He was right back in my mind and my
thoughts.

The blackouts started after the suicide.

And the blackouts and the, uh... the
missing hours and

days and these strange men, I...

I'm a mess.

I don't... I don't even know who I am
anymore.

I don't know what's going on in my life.

I don't even know what I'm doing here.

You called because you want help in
tackling your problems.

That's a beginning, you know.

Admitting a need for help.

I guess it's obvious I need a lot of it,
huh?

Dr. Kramer, what is wrong with me? I've
got to know.

It's much too early for a diagnosis.

But you must have some kind of opinion.

Something, I mean... What do you think
may be wrong with me? How's that?

Women with a background such as yours
can manifest any of several problems.

Some become promiscuous, even turn to
prostitution.

Frigidity is not uncommon.

Some become deeply disturbed, clinically
depressed.

And others suffer what is known as
multiple personality.

But I'm...

I mean, people like that, they're...
They're really insane, aren't they?

Insanity is not a medical term. It's a
legal description.

A label.

Yeah, well, I'm an attorney, and it
seems to me it's a pretty accurate

Jordan, whatever is going on is not
unbeatable.

Let's keep working together.

No. I'm sorry, but I mean, I am not
insane.

I'm just getting out of here. Please
don't leave. Not now.

Forget it.

It was a mistake to come here.

Hello, Richard.

Julia.

Would you like to sit down?

Thank you.

What's on your mind, Julia?

I filmed some things on your mind.

Yes.

I've tried dozens of times to write to
you, Richard.

Words just really don't seem adequate to
express how I feel.

But I've got to try.

I'm really sorry for all the pain I've
caused you.

Nothing I can ever say will bring your
mother back to life.

And yet we share the same father,
Richard.

And I thought, after so much time had
passed, perhaps you could find

it in your heart to forgive me for our
death.

I find all this very touching.

What do you want?

You want me to spring you from the
convent?

That really isn't why I came.

There got to be times when you choke at
the thought of spending the rest of your

days in that sanctimonious penitentiary.

Well, it'll never be home.

And I'll always miss my family.

I'm surprised your mother hasn't tried
to get you a new trial.

I tried to kill her, remember?

I think my mother would be very happy to
see me spend the rest of my life in

Convent Magdalena.

I'm sorry I bothered you.

Going back to your work.

Julia.

You're still a major stockholder in all
this, you know.

The New Globe.

Yes, I guess I am.

I guess you are surprised to see me.

Well, that's putting it mildly.

What are you doing here?

You have to stand in the doorway.

Ah.

Ah,

beautiful house.

Just beautiful.

This is what I'd expect of you, too.

Jeff, you didn't answer my question. Why
are you here?

I just dropped by to say hello. I'm
moved to the valley.

What about your job with Wallen and
Green?

I quit to concentrate on my writing.

I wanted to come to some place that I'd
be inspired, you know.

So here I am.

Great choice.

Great, great choice.

You know that Dante's my favorite
author, besides you, of course.

Did you know that a woman named Beatrice
inspired him to write all his work?

He even named a character in the book
after her.

Well, this book arrived anonymously.

You wouldn't have any idea who sent it,
would you?

You don't like it, huh?

I don't like what it seems to imply,
Jeff.

What does it imply? Can you explain
that? I can explain it. It's my way of

saying thank you.

And that I missed you.

I think about you every day, Maggie.

I even dream about you. Look, I thought
I made this clear.

When we were in Los Angeles, I am a
happily married woman.

Now, that is never going to change. Do
you understand?

Second stanza.

Without hope, we live in desire.

See ya.

passing through or... Actually, I came
by to see how your visit with Valini

went.

Eat any crow?

I didn't get indigestion.

We got the harvest.

Good.

Looks like you're on a roll, Richard.

What are you talking about?

First the race track, now this.

Doesn't take a genius to figure out that
you made a deal with Stavros.

Miss Jones conveniently flips out on the
fans, Angela thus goes free, and you

get to keep Tuscany Downs. That is a
dangerous piece of fantasizing.

You don't understand.

I think it's brilliant the way you
worked it all out.

I just don't know if Chase would agree.

I don't want you causing any trouble
between Chase and me.

Girl's got to do something to relieve
the tension.

Why did the board meeting seem to go on
forever?

Hey, hey, hey, what's the matter?

I'm telling you, the strangest thing
happened.

What?

Jeff Wainwright was here.

What did he want?

I'm not sure.

He's moved to the valley.

To write, he says. I think it's to be
around me.

And he's the one who sent the book, the
Dante.

This puppy love thing has gone far
enough. I'm going to talk to him and get

settled once and for all.

Well, I'm telling you, there is
something not quite right about this

I'll lay you odds that he's the one
making the crank phone calls. It was. It

Jeff. Don't worry.

It's going to be fine.

Don't worry.

Hope you're right.

Play it again, my man.

Last one, Mr. Compson.

Then it's cut -off time. What do you
care?

I'll just hit another bar in town. Then
you'll be somebody else's problem, not

mine.

Don't do that. Unless you mean it,
Counselor.

Um, I'll have whatever my man's having.

Your man?

I thought Greg Reardon was your man.

Oh, yeah. No, no, no, no, no.

That's Jordan's guy.

You really mean this, don't you?

Honey, I intend to.

Welcome home.

Hello, Charlie.

last night.

You want Chase Giberti out of this
valley for your reasons.

I want him out for mine.

And I think we could work very well
together.

Well, you make a very persuasive case,
Mr.

Wainwright. Don't you like what I have
on?

Are you taking some kind of pill to me,
Jordan? You are behaving like... Don't

call me Jordan.

You might try Monica.
