Jacqueline.

Richard is your son?

Yes. And Douglas was the father? I want
to give her as much pain as she's given

me. Jacqueline will always be my mother.
She's accountable to no one but

herself. When she seduced Douglas
Channing, she became accountable to me.

Had I returned with Douglas' child, it
would have destroyed your marriage.

Something you managed quite well on your
own. But who abandoned her bastard son?

Thank you.

Betray your own mother like that.

The fact that she gave birth to me does
not make her my mother. We agreed to

keep her secret. You agreed. I don't
make promises I can't keep.

Chase, come on. It's not worth it.

Jacqueline.

Richard is your son.

Yes. And Douglas was the father.

But this is not the time, Angela.

I'll be the judge of that.

Let's use a little discretion.

You're 35 years too late for discretion.

Come on, mother. Let me take you home.

Oh, that's right, Chase.

Even an adulteress needs a champion.

So how's your right cross?

It's sore.

I shouldn't have hit him.

Oh, I don't know. I kind of enjoyed it.

Even if I carry it, it's out of the way.
You see.

Is Mother up yet?

I don't think so. I knocked on her door
this morning.

She must feel awful.

I don't blame her.

Did you know about this?

She never should have told us.

She certainly shouldn't have given
Richard that kind of ammunition.

She's lucky he didn't run it on page
one.

Oh, he went one better.

Hitting Angela with that news in front
of half the valley.

Good morning.

Morning. Morning.

Well, no after effects from last night?
Last night is in the past.

Let's leave it there.

I'm more interested in the future.

I don't know how you can be so forgiving
after what Richard did.

Well, he's just bitter.

We must be more understanding.

Why?

Well, to repay spite with spite serves
no one.

If there's one thing I've learned since
moving here, that you better know who

you're dealing with.

I know Richard, Mother, well enough to
tell you I could never trust him again.

Thank you.

Good morning. Good morning, Melissa.

Wasn't last night exciting?

I don't think the dust has settled yet.

I can't ever remember my mother being
that angry before.

Can you blame her?

Talking about last night's jawbreaker?

I can't remember one I've had so much
fun.

Oh, don't be so smug.

Well, I have to go into San Francisco
this afternoon. There's a new shipment

Portuguese cork coming in.

I am still waiting for you to run that
acidity test on that Cabernet. Well,

get to it.

Maybe I could drive in with you.

I have some shopping to do. No, I don't
think so.

Not if I'm going to be back in enough
time to check that Cabernet.

Well, if you two want to drive into San
Francisco together, I can run that test.

That's all right.

I'll drive myself.

Whatever you say.

Grandmother?

Good morning, Angela.

Philip tells me that you haven't
accepted our offer to buy your vineyard.

Well, the estate isn't settled yet.

My attorneys are still evaluating the
offers. I just haven't reached a

yet. Well, there are no choices.

The Agretti Vineyards and Falcon Crest
must be united.

It's what your father would have wanted.

I'm sure that Melissa will make the
right decision.

I'm sure she will.

The weekend we spent at Mount Shasta?

We haven't been there in years.

Yeah, but after we were married.

Took a little house down by the lake.

No.

Yeah. Middle of October, who would have
believed it?

No firewood.

You broke up the kitchen table and
chairs.

Burned everything but the bed.

That's only because I wouldn't get out
of it. He kept tickling me.

Yeah, I know. No!

Please, no!

Please, you know how much I hate this.
Then why are you laughing? Because I

can't stop it.

Let's stay home today.

I can't.

Come on.

Start a fire. I'll break up the
furniture for you.

I can't.

I've got a dentist appointment in half
an hour. Just don't go.

I've had to cancel twice already.

I've got to get up to the winery.

Oh, okay.

Honey? Yeah? I've decided to give Daryl
Clayton back his advance.

$2 ,500?

Why? Well, I didn't write the script for
the money. I wrote it because I wanted

to. I felt it, and it's a...

It's a part of me, and I want to buy it
back from him.

Maggie, start fresh.

Get an agent, find a new producer.

Daryl's been... The less contact with
him, the better.

Chase, I'm going to have to deal with
him.

It wasn't even his money. It was
Angela's. Oh, come on. You've earned it.

it. I don't want Angela's money.

I'm never going to know if this script
is any good unless I get it back and I

try to sell it on my own, even if that
means seeing Daryl again.

I'll see you tonight.

Uh, yeah, we're bottling the petite
saran.

I may be late.

You talked to the doctor?

Yeah, he made us an appointment tomorrow
afternoon at two.

Good. That's great. It'll give us enough
time to get everything together.

Yeah, well, I just wish we didn't have
to sneak around so much to do this.

Will you stop worrying?

You just seem so dishonest.

This is the only way we can ever be
together without any recriminations from

grandmother or anybody else.

Trust me.

Channing residence.

One moment, please.

Excuse me. It's for you, Richard
Channing.

Thank you, Charlie.

Hello? I just wanted to tell you how
much I enjoyed seeing you at the

Day.

I was just thinking the same thing.

Well, would you like to continue our
conversation over lunch?

When? What about Wednesday?

I'm not certain.

Have you ever tried the lobster salad at
the Seacliff Inn?

Yes, it's one of my favorite
restaurants.

Good.

Why don't you meet me here in my office
around noon?

That sounds fine.

I'll look forward to it.

Goodbye.

Angela, what Jacqueline did occurred
more than 35 years ago. There are

Not as far as I'm concerned.

Some things are better left alone.

Jacqueline came between my husband and
me.

Now, Douglas and I might have stayed
together if it hadn't been for her. But,

Angela, marital infidelity does take
two.

Oh, don't give me those platitudes.

What I need now is your support.

You know you have my support.

Do I?

Then prove it.

How? There must be something in that
woman's past.

Now, if there's a skeleton in her
closet, I want you to find it. But what

will that do? It won't change the past.

I know that, but it'll arm me for the
future.

Now, are you with me in this, or do I
have to start looking for a new

I'll see what I can do.

I'm sure you will.

And, Philip, I want to give her as much
pain as she's given me.

Hello, Slugger.

Thanks.

How's it going?

Oh, we're just running some lab
technique.

Have you had a chance to test that
cabernet yet? No, I'm still waiting for

Lance.

Oh, there's the baby.

I thought you might want to see him
after his morning stroll.

Oh, yes.

Oh, isn't he precious?

He's beautiful.

Oh, isn't he wonderful? He's so
beautiful.

Look at that.

Oh, gosh.

I think he has my eyes.

He's definitely a Gioberti.

You better go have your lunch now.

And I'll see you later.

Thank you.

I don't know.

Maybe I'm just a little out of it, but I
don't relate to this at all.

Look at that.

I don't know, sometimes just the color
is exciting.

Yeah, well, it better have more than
color for that price.

Isn't that Sheila Hogan over there?
Where?

Over there.

It can't be. That's not Nick.

Anyway, I was thinking about getting
this to my room. What do you think?

Have enough color for you?

It's not exactly subtle.

First time I met your father was in this
office.

Did you barge in on him like this too?

Well, I have no choice when you refuse
to take my calls.

Despite what you may think, there's a
great deal we can do for each other. Oh,

really?

What?

Well, I have powerful connections.

I don't need them.

There's nothing I can't give you. Let's
start with a lost childhood.

Why won't you let the past die?

Haven't we both suffered enough?

No, we haven't.

I have.

Richard, forgive me.

And go to Chase as a friend before it's
too late.

If Chase and I are on some kind of
collision course, there's nothing

even you, can do about it.

I'm asking you for the last time. Work
with Chase.

Be his brother.

Never.

Then be damned.

I was born damned!

Well, keep trying.

Thanks.

Bye.

That's the third call in a half an hour.

Who is this Jacqueline Perrault, anyway?

A fixation of answers.

Sounds mysterious.

Shall I make those reservations for
dinner?

Whatever you like.

If you're not too busy.

I'm never too busy for the woman I love.

What about this business with Jacqueline
Perrault for Angela?

Oh, that's just busy work.

Nothing that can't wait.

Why weren't you in your office? I've
been trying to reach you for hours.

I'm working on Jacqueline Perrault. What
else?

And you found something?

Quite the contrary.

There doesn't seem to be anything more
interesting on Jacqueline Perrault than

you could read in a Wall Street journal.

Well, then you're just not looking hard
enough.

I can assure you I have my best people
on it. I don't want your best people. I

want you. And I want results. You've got
24 hours.

Where are we going for dinner?

We're not.

You were right.

I'm too busy.

Maybe a rain check?

And maybe not.

What are you doing here? I, uh, came to
return this.

What for?

It's Angela Channing's money and I don't
want it.

Maggie, the money's yours.

Daryl, I'm not kidding. I want to buy
the rights to my screenplay back.

Well, I'm afraid that that's, uh, not
possible.

You see, I own a three -month option.

I never cashed the check. Well, it
doesn't make any difference. I have a

contract. Besides, it's not just the
money. I've invested a lot of time and

energy in this, too, you know, and I'm
going to do my damnedest to make that

off. It is my script. I wrote it. I feel
strongly about it, and I don't think

that you... Maggie, I know that you
don't trust me after what's happened,

believe in this movie, and if there's a
way, I'm going to see that it gets made.

I don't want you to. You don't have a
choice.

The check is yours.

Hey.

Who told you to bottle the petite Syrah?

No one. It was my decision.

The wine was ready.

Well, why wasn't I consulted?

Because you asked not to be disturbed.

Falcon Crest doesn't grind to a halt
every time you lock yourself in your

you know. I run this place.

Now, whether it's from this winery or in
my study, I run it.

And don't forget that.

And by the way, I don't appreciate you
turning my party into a brawl.

I have no regrets.

It isn't any wonder that Jason was so
distraught over all those years. Your

mother destroyed him.

And you had nothing to do with it, of
course.

Well, he certainly didn't drink himself
to death because of me. She took care of

that. He didn't drink himself to death
at all, as you well know. He died in an

accident here at the winery, an accident
you tried to cover up.

Well, let's not get back into the past.

You and I have the only true Gioberti
blood.

Now, Richard and Jacqueline don't belong
to that heritage.

They may not be part of yours, but
Jacqueline will always be my mother.

And while I may not always agree with
her, she's made her own choices.

She's accountable to no one but herself.

When she seduced Douglas Channing, she
became accountable to me.

Hi there, champ.

You know, it looks like we're going to
spend a couple hours together, just you

and me.

Oh, I just took him for his walk.

Good. You know, it's only right that a
father get to know his son a little

better.

It's a good boy.

It's a good boy. Does he need any
diapers or a bottle or anything? I have

everything here.

Good. Would you like me to go with you?
No, thank you.

Come on, kiddo.

Earth, are you doing?

Oh, hi. I finished making all those
journal entries you wanted, so I thought

get started on that test.

Who set this up?

Well, I did. I followed the instructions
in the book. What you have here is a

cash dip. Well, I know what it is, but
you shouldn't start things you don't

anything about.

I was just trying to help.

You set that up all by yourself?

Sure. You put the sample in here, heat
up the boiling chamber, the wine's

evaporated and collected in here.

And what are you distilling?

Just the cabernet you said you wanted to
test for volatile acidity the cabernet.

I thought I told Lance to do that I
Guess he didn't get to it

Come

in

Chase Richard

I guess you weren't expecting me

You always seem to do the unexpected.

My lot in life, I guess.

Mind if I sit down?

I'm busy.

I understand.

I hope you also understand how difficult
it was for me to come here.

Get to the point.

You were right to hit me the other
night.

You don't expect me to believe you came
here to apologize.

No.

Yesterday, your mother, our mother, came
to visit me.

But I behaved just as badly as I had the
night before at Angela's, so I'm afraid

I wasn't very nice to her.

She never mentioned it.

I'm not surprised.

She seems to be able to keep things to
herself.

What's all this got to do with you and
me?

She came, Jase, because she wanted us to
be friends.

But I've been a little too filled with
anger, pain, whatever, to be able to see

that. And now you want to be friends.

I'm not foolish enough to think that I
can gain your trust overnight.

Maybe in time, who knows?

Anything else?

Yes.

I think I've burned my bridges with
Jacqueline. I was wondering if you could

intercede for me.

Richard, there are some things no one
can do for you.

If you have something to say to
Jacqueline, say it yourself.

Anyway, thanks for listening Brother

When I first found out we were

brothers I had hoped things could work
out but you destroyed that hope

Can I help you? Yeah, we have an
appointment today. The name is Compson.

Oh, Joseph, at 2 o 'clock.

You're right on time.

I'll take him.

You having second thoughts?

No.

What would be the point?

I just want you to be sure.

I'm sure of two things.

Number one, I have to prove that I'm not
that child's father.

And number two, I want to be with you.

And this is the only way I know to
accomplish both.

I just have a couple of questions.

But you're the only one who can answer
them.

I'll do what I can.

Is there anyone who really stood to
profit from your father's death?

There were a series of loans.

He'd overextended himself.

His estate has not been easy to settle,
and now the taxes are due.

Has anyone tried to take advantage of
that?

Only one person.

Angela Channing.

How do you mean?

Well, for several years she's wanted to
buy my father's vineyard. He would never

sell.

Ever since he was murdered, that's all
she seems to care about.

But you won't sell, will you?

I may have to.

Why? Because she also holds notes on his
property.

She's demanding payment from my lawyers.
If I can't come up with the money in

some other way, I won't have any choice.

Angela. Well, I'm glad to see you're
alive.

I've been trying to reach you all
afternoon.

I've got room on hold right now.

There's no need for you to make a
special trip. Oh, I didn't. I've been at

accounting office since one.

You look terrible.

Thank you.

It was a long night, Angela.

Now, don't give me any excuses.

What have you got on Jacqueline?

Information like that takes time.

I haven't got time.

I'm meeting Jacqueline tomorrow, Philip.

See... Dillo che è urgente per piacere.

Grazie.

Look, I'm doing the best I can. Just
don't expect any miracles.

Not miracles.

Results. Now keep in touch.

Pronto? Ah.

Sì, grazie per la tua cortesia.

Sto chiamando per dell 'informazione
sulla signora Jacqueline Perrot.

Sì, Perrot.

That's correct.

San Francisco at nine sharp.

Oh, and the driver will have to wait.

I want to be back at Falcon Crest at
noon.

Thank you.

Good night.

Dinner's ready.

Sounds like a busy day.

Well, I'm closing a deal on the Tate
Hotel tomorrow morning.

Why are you going to Falcon Crest?

Well, it's time that Angela and I
cleared the air.

We've avoided this problem long enough.

Could I talk to you about another
problem?

Well, of course.

You can always talk to me.

It's about a man.

He's married.

But I think his wife's having an affair.

Well, I wouldn't think an attractive
young lady like you would have to resort

married men.

Well, it isn't really the way it sounds.
He's very... Isn't it?

No.

I thought you'd understand.

Would you like to know what experience
has taught me?

I don't really need a lecture.

Well, you're obviously infatuated.

But infatuations pass.

I don't want it to pass.

Victoria, be careful.

You could hurt a lot of people,
including yourself.

I think we better get down to dinner.

Hello? Oh, hello, Philip. Well, it's
about time.

I think I have just what you've been
looking for on Jacqueline.

Will it send her packing?

On the first plane back to Paris.

Good morning.

I stopped by to see Grandmother, but she
wasn't down yet.

Well, considering the fact that you
weren't home again last night, I doubt

much that she was expecting you.

I see.

Incidentally, you don't have to bother
running a test in the Cabernet.

Cole already did it for you.

How presumptuous of him.

If I were you, I'd keep on my toes.

Cole is pretty sharp, you know?

I'll keep it in mind.

Meanwhile...

Read this.

What is that?

Absolute proof that I'm not the father
of Melissa's child.

How could you?

Because it's the truth.

The truth I've been telling everybody
all along.

But, Lance, don't you understand?

The only person you're going to be
hurting by this...

It's an innocent child.

I'm not trying to hurt anyone.

I just want out of this marriage.

Please don't do this.

Why are you so upset?

Because this baby is the only joyful
thing that's happened to this family in

years.

He actually accused Angela.

No, no, no, but Angela's wanted the
Agretti vineyards for years.

I need to kill Carlo to get them.

Morning. Good morning.

Your father and I were just discussing a
talk with Melissa last night. Son, does

anyone else know that you're the father
of Melissa's baby?

No, not that I can think of. I mean, I
didn't actually find out until she went

into labor.

You don't think she might have told
Carlo, do you?

No, I doubt it.

I know this is far -fetched. What about
Angela?

The last thing Melissa would want is for
Angie to find out that it isn't Lance's

child.

Honey, would you cut the grapefruit for
me, please?

You know, I just feel that there's
something we're just not seeing here.

Yeah. What's the point?

Another unsolved murder.

Half the county thinks I did it anyway.

The point is someone deliberately made
it look that way, huh?

Why?

Maybe somebody was trying to get to you
through coal.

That's pretty extreme.

It depends on the stakes.

Okay.

Who'd be capable of stooping that low?

Well, I can think of a couple of people
right off the bat. Richard Channing.

Angela.

Especially if she had any inkling that
Cole was Joseph's father.

For that matter, I guess even Lance
could have done it.

He didn't like Carlo any better than I
did.

Let's face it, anybody in this valley
with a grudge against Carlo could have

done it.

Not just anyone would go to the trouble
to frame Cole.

Whoever the killer is, I have a feeling
it's somebody we know.

You're sure about this information?

Everything checks out.

I even managed to talk to the cleric who
married them.

Good morning, Philip.

Grandmother, I have something you should
see. Well, we're busy right now. Maybe

later.

It's about Joseph.

The results are negative.

So what?

I told you.

I'm not the father of Melissa's child.

What are you doing?

Destroying this before it gets into the
wrong hand.

But you can see by that that I'm not the
child's father.

He is the key to the Agretti vineyards.
And I intend to have them.

What about me?

Until I inform you differently, you are
the baby's father.

And don't forget it.

But he's not one of us. The subject is
closed.

Now, don't you have something important
to do?

Lance.

I want you to review my will.

That... child must never inherit falcon
crest

hi

hi you busy nothing that can't wait well
i've been thinking

About us being... friends.

So have I.

Well, uh... Maybe we've been thinking
the same thing.

There's no easy way to say this.

I'm very much attracted to you. But I am
married, and I can't promise you

anything.

I know that.

Vicki, I care for you.

I'm just afraid of what might happen.
Don't say that.

I have nothing to offer you. I don't
agree.

You've got to give this time.

You've got to think about what a
relationship between us means.

I already have.

I've been with Sheila for ten years.

Do you owe her the next ten years?

I don't know.

I do.

What's the matter? I thought that was
pretty good. What I teach you is an art,

not a test of strength.

It's a weapon, Charlie.

That's all I'm interested in.

It is nothing unless the spirit and the
body works together.

You know, you're a good teacher, but you
got a lot of old -fashioned ideas.

I have the wisdom of masters who have
gone before.

I want to pass it on to you, but you
have refused.

Uh -huh.

Hey, that's not part of the routine. You
have a son.

Someday he'll be stronger than you. Only
with self -control can you control

others.

If I have my own way, my son will grow
up somewhere else.

You're rash, Lance.

Secret of tidy trying is not for the
impetuous.

I don't want to know the secrets.

I just want to learn the techniques.

True strength comes only from inner
peace.

Is that right?

I could take you down in less than five
seconds.

You have a wife and a son, and you seek
to abandon them. You bring disgrace to

this family.

That's enough, Charlie. In my eyes, are
you an outcast here?

Inner peace, Lance.

So far, she hasn't returned any of them.
Very well.

Keep trying.

And Mrs. Compson is here.

Send her in. Yes.

Melissa.

As beautiful as ever.

I was beginning to think you might not
make it.

I had to stop at my attorney's.

My father's estate is much more
complicated than I expected.

Healing with attorneys can be very
tiresome. I know.

My offer on your father's house still
stands.

Thank you.

But I'm still not sure I want to sell.

Oh, I know you don't want to sell.

But your father's estate is cash poor.
So in order to pay the inheritance

you're going to have to sell something.

I never discuss business without my
attorney.

I'm not interested in business.

I'm looking for a home.

I thought we were meeting for lunch. You
did promise me the lobster salad at the

Seacliff Inn, didn't you? So that's why
you came.

And I thought all the time it was for
the conversation.

Miss Sterling, send the gentleman in,
please.

Yes, sir.

Voila.

Lobster salad from the Seacliff.

Mrs. Perrault is here to see you, Mrs.
Charney. All right.

Angela?

Angela, I know you must be upset.

On the contrary.

When I thought about it, I wasn't
surprised that you seduced Douglas.

Well, it wasn't what you think.

Wasn't it?

Well, unlike your relationship, ours was
quite beautiful.

Well, I don't see anything beautiful
about an unwanted pregnancy.

Ill -timed, perhaps, but not unwanted.

Is that why you ran away to Europe?

No.

I did it to spare you.

Well, now, that's hard for me to
believe.

Had I returned with Douglas' child, it
would have destroyed your marriage.

Something you managed quite well on your
own.

Oh, really?

How easily you shift the blame.

But who abandoned her bastard son?

Well, that's not true.

Isn't it true that the man you married
after you left Jason was Jean -Pierre

Charbon?

That marriage was annulled. Whose half
-brother was childless.

And that half -brother was Henry
Denault.

You sold your son.

That's not true.

The truth is there was never an adoption
by Henry Denault.

I won't listen to this.

You traded, Richard. For what?

Wealth? No. What did Charbon promise you
in return?

You have no right to ask that.

I had no choice.

Well, you've got one now.

I want you to leave this valley and
never return, or I'll tell Richard that

sold him.

You may think you have won, Angela.

Enjoy your comfort while you can.

Because you haven't won anything.

Charlie, I want you to chill our finest
bottle of Chardonnay.

It's time we celebrate.

Jacqueline, are you sure you don't want
us to go with you to the airport? Oh,

I'm on such a tight schedule. It would
only be a waste of time.

And as always, I'm very proud of you.
You truly are quite capable.

Of course I am. I'm your son.

Bye -bye, Jacqueline. Safe trip.

Jacqueline?

It's Richard's office again. Says he'd
like to speak to you.

Tell him I have nothing to say.

You did an excellent job, Philip.

Once you put your mind to it.

Thank you, Angela.

Jacqueline didn't make anything easy.

She's a very private woman.

Who sold her son.

I wonder what she got in return.

A life of ease.

Now, she was a very beautiful woman. She
could have married anyone she wanted

to. I see your point.

There must be something else.

And I want to know what it is.

But she's gone.

Why continue to probe the past?

The past affects the future.

You mean you intend to use this
information against her sons?

You're damn right.

Next on Falcon Press.

I'm just trying to find out who killed
Carlo Agretti. You keep snooping around

and we'll have more bad publicity than
we can overcome.
