Original subtitles

Previously on Falcon Crest. I understand that you're having trouble disposing of

the waste from your chemical plant in the city. You can say that again.

Who are you?

And what do you want?

My sister's Aaron Jones.

You want to take the new globe away from Richard Channing? I want at least 40 %

of the stock.

Mickey doesn't need your endless lectures, Cole doesn't need your

and I don't need your empty reassurances.

Look, I've done everything in my power to keep this family together. If that's

not enough for you, I can't help it.

A well -known killer continues to serve guests at Angela Channing's Del Oro Spa.

Well, I won't put up with that.

And tonight.

Laugh all you want, Lance.

But I'm never letting Melissa out of our business marriage.

Think of Chase to your bearded face, knowing his daughter's working for you.

Keep smiling and walk with me.

What are you trying to do?

I'm here to murder you, just like I did that cop. You scared?

You mind?

I like the way you move. Yeah, I'll bet you do.

You dance angry.

I like that, too.

And what does that look mean?

I guess you remind me of somebody I know.

A real bad news kid.

Oh, yeah? Who's that?

Take a guess.

My orange juice.

How?

It's just an editorial.

How dare you use your newspaper to explain my winery?

Eric Stavros has accused you of embezzlement. Somebody has to publicly

why he wants to get back in bed with you. He can sue you for libel. You

that he's doing something crooked.

He is. He wants my wife.

You're only doing this because I won't give up my winery.

Keep the winery. Give up Favre. You know I can't do that.

Well, then my paper's going to write whatever a damn well pleases. Your

You know how it hurts me to see you in business with Richard. I think it's

time you tell me what you're up to.

I can't right now.

I've got to talk to Emma first, but please.

Please, Melissa.

My patience is gone. You love the editorial.

Anything to sink the Agretti Winery.

You've taken a ridiculous rag and made it even worse.

Didn't like the Dan Fix story. It was in bad taste.

Lurid.

Embarrassed the spa.

I think it just embarrassed you.

Look, I want you out of business with Richard Channing.

And I want Fix out of our house, out of the spa, and out of our lives.

Well, then you won't mind getting out of my study.

No.

This place is like a...

A tomb, anyway.

Where's Emma?

She's with Skyler at the spa.

You remember the spa, don't you?

You used to run it for me.

Mrs. Channing's residence.

I was hoping for a progress report by now.

There's an art to what I'm doing.

Don't punch in a time clock.

I want some news.

Oh, um, I'm sorry. No, we're not interested in a subscription right now.

forgot something.

You really should let Dorothy answer the phone.

That's for the bath.

Michael needed to come out of the bath anyway.

You're soaking wet.

So I am.

Hold him, please.

Come here, fella. Now both of us will have to change.

Mr. Channing, I'm off to work with you. I have reorganization of the house to

do. Wait a minute. What reorganization? It's never too early to start.

Medicines will no longer be allowed in dresser drawers.

Cleaning supplies will be moved to higher cabinets.

And I've ordered special rails for the staircase.

Mr. Channing, I expect you to keep more regular hours.

I can't guarantee you a happy child if you don't spend more time at home with

us.

You helped arrange this job for me, and I'm grateful.

But I'm not your employee.

Well, I certainly expect to receive something in return.

Oh, you will.

As soon as I find my sister.

I wouldn't play too many games with Richard Chan if I were you. He may look

easy, but he isn't.

I'm aware of that.

I assume you have a plan.

I'm going to seduce him.

That's a traditional technique.

One that I don't think he'll go for.

I'm going to make him think that it was his idea.

Then, when we're intimate, I'll find out where Aaron is.

Appears you'd go a long way for your sister.

I love her.

Now, why does that surprise me?

Aaron never had much of a heart.

But she's my flesh and blood, and I know that she'd do the same thing for me.

How long do you expect me to wait?

Life has two choices, Mrs. Channing.

Slow seduction or a quick strike.

I'm doing what I do best.

Well, you're quite a philosopher, Miss Braxton.

You're quite something yourself, Mrs. Channing.

Don't you ever forget it.

you'd see her.

Well, I can't wait to see what kind of mood she's in. I think she was up at

o 'clock this morning. Yeah?

I think I hear her.

Well, do I look stupid or what? No, you look terrific.

I love the shoes.

Yeah, I know. I'm just a fashion warrior.

Go get them, gal.

Take it easy, Dad. It's only my first day on the job. At least you're giving

a chance.

Oh, yeah, well, I like spending the time with you, but office life, I don't

know. You may surprise yourself.

Yes, you might love it. New experiences, new people. It's a good thing I worked

out at the spa this morning.

It's the only thing that's going to get me through this.

You'll do fine.

Well, I'm late.

Bye. Have a good time. I will. Thanks.

Don't forget to change your shoes. Okay.

Well, well, maybe I'll drop by her this afternoon and see how she's doing.

Don't you have a board of supervisors meeting?

Yeah, you're right.

However, my obstetrician is only two blocks from the office, so I could stop

and maybe we could have lunch together.

Okay.

Okay.

Mr. Channing.

Castle, grab a racket.

I bet you could use some work on your backhand.

What do you want to see me about, Castle?

I nearly filled that racetrack up with bad news chemicals and I... I think

it's time we let up a little bit. You getting nervous?

Well, it's a risky business, and it's getting frisky.

The game's not over, Castle.

You keep jumping until I say stop. Here.

What? Oh.

Oh!

You understand?

Uh, yes, sir. All right, come on.

Off the court. Oh, right.

I'm going to take some movement lessons, Castle. You want to do any dancing with

those girls down at Tahiti?

Yeah, I was planning on some movement lessons.

needs a tennis coach.

I can't do this.

I know. Mondays get me too.

Morning. Looking for a job?

George. Lake and Tanning Bed Company.

It'll keep you hot all summer long.

You could always use a good -looking salesgirl.

Yeah, well, I'm not a salesgirl.

I'm a dancer.

All right.

Well, the next time, wear your tutu, honey.

So, I am formally announcing my re -election campaign tomorrow, and I'd

both to join me.

We'd be delighted.

Great.

But it might be helpful if you could give us some broad strokes on your

strategy. I can do better than that, Jose.

My position papers, I want to focus primarily on water rights and further

controls of non -agricultural development.

And I want to get our constituents out of Angela Channing's pocket.

Chase.

Excuse me. Hi.

Could I just talk to you for a moment?

Okay. Sure. Be right with you.

So, look these over.

And any suggestions? Let me know, will you?

What's wrong?

Oh, nothing's wrong. I'm just feeling overwhelmed.

Dr. Randall just went ahead and made the appointment for the embryo synthesis

and the paternity test.

When will that be?

The day after tomorrow.

Well, at least we'll be sure the baby is yours.

I'm sorry I broke up your meeting.

No problem.

Oh, I just keep thinking about Vicki.

Not even giving that job a chance.

Cole sleeping out on the deck of that half -finished boat.

This baby.

Everything seems so out of control.

I think you're just having a little anxiety about the tests.

Soon we'll...

know what we're dealing with, and we can just push on past it.

You're really excited about this re -election campaign, aren't you? You bet

am.

And your vineyard with Tony and Gioberti Enterprises in the city.

What are you getting at?

I'm not getting at anything. I'm just, I'm impressed.

I'm impressed the way you're handling everything. You're just so solid and top

of things, taking it one day at a time.

It's the only way I can handle things.

You remember how thrilled we were when, uh, I was pregnant with Cole and Vicki?

It hurts not to feel that way.

Look, uh, it's late.

You're tired.

We're older. Let's not do this to ourselves, okay?

I'm sorry, Lance, and I can't sell you my shares in the new globe.

I didn't want to buy them.

I just want to borrow them. All you have to do is sign this proxy right here. I

wish I could, but I can't.

Hi, Skylar.

Hi.

I'm so glad you could come.

Where exactly are we going?

Oh, it's a surprise.

Well, actually, we're going to see Dwayne.

I mean, it was really your idea, Skylar, my seeing a spiritual counselor.

Wouldn't you rather go to lunch?

Oh, no. You just love him.

Well, I'm not exactly a fan of psychics.

Not him.

I want you to meet Duane.

Oh.

Emma, I need five minutes to explain to you why I really need you to help me

with this thing.

There's no point.

Ready to transcend this place, Joey.

I'll try my best.

Emma, at least give me a reason.

Don't you even read the horoscope page of your own new globe?

I can't have any business dealings until Jupiter enters Taurus at the end of

next month. Come on, Skyler.

You know where this bash goes.

Mrs. Channing. And when we finish here, I want you to help me draft a telegram.

Oh, of course, Mrs. Channing. I want to notify every lawmaker in the state of

California to help me oppose Chase Gioberti's political campaign.

Don't you like the tone of this telegram?

Deep concern, political outrage.

Although, I personally recommend the old standby favored by the royal family.

And what is that?

The politely veiled threat.

It was always a great success.

Well, my problem is more than Chase's campaign.

For that, I will call a very dear friend of mine, Giles Taylor.

What really concerns me is that terrible merger with Tony Compson.

Surely you have some ideas, Mrs. Channing.

No, I don't.

But I will.

Mrs. Channing, I want you to know that your enemies are my enemies.

First it was one vine, now it's two.

I've never seen anything like it. Right?

Like no disease I've ever been around.

Let's get these cuttings to the lab analysis.

By the way, you know, I was by your house the other day. Your son's boat's

along real fine. Yeah, he's obsessed neglecting his work. I wish he'd talk

it. At least you have a son who won't spit in your face.

I'd still get to do it.

Sure hope so.

You know...

It's a conspiracy.

They're working together to drive us crazy.

Huh.

Hoi, mate.

Hoi, mate. Come on up.

I heard you were lining up all the animals in the forest, two by two.

I'm short one giraffe, otherwise I'd be ready to roll.

What's the story with this thing?

Something I gotta do.

You here for a reason?

Yeah. I came here to show you my new toy.

It's red.

Want to do some sailing?

I'd love to, man. I really would.

I got too many irons in the fire.

Nothing ever changes.

Cole has the dreams.

Lance has the schemes.

Speaking of schemes,

I got one burning.

But if it ever rains for 40 days and 40 nights, I'll be back.

Hey, if it rains for 40 days and 40 nights, I'll be gone.

Take care, cousin.

You too.

I'm glad you're back from Washington, Giles.

I need the expertise of a professional lobbyist.

I've retired, Angela. You know that.

All I plan to do with my time is fish.

Do you remember that hayride we went on at your father's farm?

You said that my wish was your command.

Oh, come.

That was 50 years ago.

That's about time you kept your promise, don't you think?

You always could wrap me around your finger, Angela.

What do you need?

I want you to form a committee to unseat Chase Giuberti.

Now, I think that this will cover all of the expenses, plus a little leftover to

buy yourself a solid gold fishing rod.

What do you mean, ulterior motive? I told you what happened at Dad's office.

Come on, Vicki. Now, I got this brochure from the Del Oro Spa in the mail today.

So what?

So what? It lists you as a dance instructor.

him. Now, wait. Vicki.

Vicki. I'm sorry. I gotta go.

I'm sorry.

They say shopping can be a traumatic experience.

Hello. Hello.

Well, hello.

Hi, guy.

Thank you. Can I hold him? Well, you sure can. Is that okay?

Well, you look so serious today.

Michael. Hi, John.

Say hello, Maggie.

You can't say hello, Maggie. Oh, give him a little time.

This is Michael's nanny, Meredith Braxton. Hi, how are you, Meredith? Nice

meet you.

Oh, is he a beauty.

He's well -behaved, too.

Unlike his father. But I'm soon going to whip him into shape.

I bet you will.

Oh, so you're enjoying fatherhood, huh?

Yes, it's great.

How's motherhood?

Oh, Vicki. Please.

Vicki is Vicki. What can I tell you? You can tell me what's bothering you.

Now, I know something is.

Richard.

Meredith. Bye.

I'm going to take Michael over to the park.

Knowing you in a minute.

Bye.

Steph.

What's wrong?

Oh, Richard, I just... Come on.

Tell me. Richard.

You can tell me. I'm pregnant.

Terrific.

Well, that's wonderful. That's terrific.

Maggie, you know, the greatest miracle there is is the birth of a child.

And you've always loved children. Richard.

I was raped.

Wainwright.

It isn't his child.

Where's Fix?

I have a few choice words for him. He just got off work, can't this wait?

Is this it? Yes, but you can't just go in... Dan!

Dan, Fix!

Dan!

Are you sure you want to be here?

I am not the least bit intimidated.

I know, you're a big girl.

You had no right to list my name on that brochure. I thought you'd be flattered.

You're jerking me around, Fitz. I'm giving you what you want. Be honest with

yourself.

What's your game?

It's the same as yours.

Come on, Giaberti.

What are you going to do with your life? Sell cookware in a department store?

Why do you care?

Because you're a natural. You have a gift for dancing. I just want to help

use it.

Still doesn't answer my question.

Because I'd give my left arm to have a gift for anything.

I wouldn't be such a kick around if I had something like you have.

Then why did it always come off like you were just hitting on me?

Look, don't get me wrong.

I like your looks.

I especially like the way you walk.

But this is a straight offer.

Tell me to back off. I'll back off.

I'll think about the job.

Now or never.

Yeah. Okay.

I'll do it.

Good.

Now take a hike.

Yeah, you do have a nice walk.

Back off, Vic.

A Giaberti working in my spa?

You know I won't permit that. Think of Chase Giaberti's face, knowing his

daughter's working for you.

Well, you might have a point. I always do.

What's your interest in sweet little Vicki?

Why don't you just trust my instincts?

They're the next best thing to yours.

I am just there to dance. I won't have anything to do with Dan Fick. I don't

like it. Look, why don't you just give your father's job another chance, okay?

Face it!

I'm not the office type.

Office type? Are you lighting up? You haven't even tried it. If you're going

fight, will you go someplace else, please?

do is dance besides this has nothing to do with me you're just upset because

today's the big amnio day why don't you face it that's why you're so crazy you

know all this fighting is getting pretty old when are you going to the hospital

um this afternoon well

the boat the boat looks uh lovely

Yeah, another weekend and it'll be done.

Then you'll get back to work, right?

I'm beginning to understand why you spend so much of your time down here.

Good luck at the hospital today.

And this picture over here, I want it more centered.

And I think we'll have it.

You're damn lucky I was on a plane when I read that editorial.

Otherwise, I'd been here yesterday to tear your face off.

I'm glad he had a chance to cool down.

I already hired another lawyer.

He specializes in libel suits.

I'm sure he's the best. You're damn right he is.

Then I hope you're not planning on paying him with another one of

checks.

Laugh all you want, Lance.

But I'm never letting Melissa out of our business marriage.

Unhappy subscriber.

with hubby?

What are you doing here?

I'm a day behind in my newspaper reading, if you catch my drift.

I'll make sure he doesn't do it again.

Oh, no, I'll make sure of it.

Eric, I want our business relationship to stop spilling over into my marriage.

Why did you do that? Melissa, I am sick of your mixed messages.

Your mouth says no, but your body is saying yes. Okay, I have feelings.

But I'm married and I want to stay married. But you love me. I do not.

You love me. I can't. Let go of him. No.

Come to me.

You want to.

Dave, by the you -know -what.

Well, well, well.

The prodigal son returns to work.

Put in some extra hours tonight.

Good. It's about time.

What's bothering you?

Why don't you just flat -out tell me?

I just don't understand what's going on. You used to love this work as much as I

do. Then what the hell's going on?

This business isn't big enough for the both of us.

I'm tired of you fighting my suggestions. Every time I get an idea,

down. That's not true. Oh, come on, Dad.

When was the last time you came to me for advice?

When was the last time you asked me to solve a problem?

This is about our partnership with Tony Compson. It's about you.

As long as I stay here, you'll never see me as

I am.

An independent man.

Dwayne.

Dwayne, is that you?

I'm here, Emma.

I'm here. See, Skyler, see.

Dwayne, this is my friend, Skyler.

Oh, Dwayne.

Where were you yesterday? We waited a whole hour for you to show up.

I miss you, Emma.

Oh, I miss you too, Dwayne.

I can't stay, Emma.

They're calling me. Oh, no, Dwayne, don't leave me. We have so much

business, so much I need to share with you. Oh, Dwayne, please, please, I'm so

alone now that you're... You've been gone.

I lost him.

It's okay.

I have an idea.

Why don't you read Styler's poem?

Oh, no, no. That's okay. No, thanks.

I... Oh.

What does that mean?

Uh -huh.

Uh -huh what?

Your past is about to catch up with you.

That's ridiculous.

Something strange.

Something vexing will occur. Don't tell me.

Really, Emma, two days in a row is quite enough. No, no, Skylar, wait.

Please. Oh.

Thank you.

Tell Duane that I'll see him tomorrow.

Skylar!

Yay.

Wouldn't it be a shame if you lost your meal ticket?

Who are you?

You're the psychic, you tell me.

But I know who you are.

A friend of mine has direct access to the computer files of the FBI.

You're quite a talented man, Vince Carlotti.

Specialist in bilking ladies of the lonely persuasion.

Well, a man's got to do what a man's got to do.

What do you want?

I want you to do what you're told.

The next time my Aunt Emma comes asking for Duane, Duane is going to give Emma

some business advice.

Okay, this is not just an exercise class. We're going to teach you the art

dance. And I think if you stick with it, you'll learn to love it. But it's going

to take a lot of hard work.

That's what I figured.

That's why I wore my sweats.

Okay.

Let's start. And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. And one,

two, three, four.

We'll just do a quick examination first.

I'm about to stay with my wife.

I'm fine, Chase.

Really.

Why don't you grab a cup of coffee? I'll call you for the actual amniocentesis.

All right.

This will just take a second.

Are you sure?

You work hard.

Too hard.

It's like you've been partying too hard.

A few beers.

It's a long day.

I loved your class, Vicki.

Yeah, we're going to need a lot of work, Vic.

Hey, I'm just a long, thin string of rope. What do you want from me?

What do you want from me?

I'm not sure I want anything.

Well, you've been hanging around a lot.

I'm lonely.

Come on.

Okay, I'll tell you the truth.

I'm here to murder you just like I did that cop. You scared?

You gotta tell somebody what really happened.

It's killing you to keep it inside.

Forget it.

You want to tell me.

Just tell me.

Let's just say I did it.

To save the life of someone I love.

Why make it so hard on yourself?

Why not tell everybody what really happened? I don't care what other people

think.

You care what I think?

That's because we're alike, Gioberti.

Nobody understands us.

That's why we have to take care of ourselves.

I got the late shift. I'll catch you later.

How do you feel?

I'm just... I'm just glad the baby's okay.

I wish the blood test had been conclusive.

Well, we'll find out when they do the tissue typing.

Sounded fit.

I just can't tell you how... happy I'll be when we know where we stand.

I'm sorry. I thought I heard the baby crying.

Don't be sorry.

You're just doing your job.

Well, I'll try to be more quiet next time.

That's fine.

Good night, Mr. Channing.

Good night.

What is it you're warning me to do, Duane?

Divest yourself, Emma, of all your worldly goods.

Give them to a trusted relative.

You know my relatives, Duane. I don't trust any of them.

A trusted relative, Emma.

The only way to have peace of mind.

As Mrs. Channing's limousine arrived, we're going to be meeting Mrs. Stavros'

chest. Not yet, Mrs. Kimball.

I'll be waiting outside. Thank you.

Just keep smiling and walk with me.

What are you trying to do?

Just pretend we're great friends, like we're having a great time. Why? Who are

you? Don't be scared. Just that moment.

Where are you taking me? Anywhere. Just out of here. This redhead, see? She just

won't leave me alone.

I've got to pretend like I'm with someone.

Hey, she's six feet two.

She's got a husband who wrestles alligators for a living, and she's got a

with my name on it. You're my only chance. Oh, you've got a hell of a lot

nerve, mister.

I'm Guy Stafford.

I, uh, sell life insurance to the rich and famous.

You look like you might be interested.

Skylar?

Yeah, can you tell him?

No, I... He was just trying to tell me something.

Hope I didn't come on too strong.

No.

My hero.

Look, look, I'm sorry if I overreacted, but, I mean, it did look worse from a

distance. I can take care of myself.

But thanks for coming to my rescue.

So what are you doing here at the spa?

Oh, I came to change your mind.

About having dinner with me tonight.

How can I say no to my hero?

I found her.

Yeah.

It went smooth.

Don't worry.

I'll take damn good care of her.

Face of evil.

That's how we'll paint Chase in this election.

Thank you, gentlemen. Thanks so much. Appreciate it.

Yep, sirree. See you guys bright and early.

We'll make him so nasty, they'll think he flosses with barbed wire.

Richard, haven't you done enough to that family already?

Ah, you're not going soft on me, are you, partner?

I got enough on my plate already.

I don't need Chase Gioberti coming down on me.

Besides, this is just the kind of thing that would cause the Gioveris to get all

close -knit again.

And I'd hate to see that, wouldn't you?

Well... Oh, I hate to admit it, but you may be right.

Backing down, Richard.

How unlike you. I'm a changed man, Melissa. I'm glad you're here. I got

something for you.

Another wedding present.

Don't worry, I left the receipt inside so you can exchange it.

Thank you for the touching gesture.

We're late for dinner.

I made reservations for 7 .30.

See you tomorrow.

If you don't tell me why you're working with that slime, I'm going to scream.

Since it looks like I'm getting Emma's shares, I'll tell you.

I'm taking over the new globe.

I'm kicking Richard out on his assets.

Can you do that?

Got a good shot at it.

What are you doing?

Something I've been tempted to do all day.

Oh, yeah?

Oh, yeah.

All right, come on. What is the big secret? Yeah, spill it, bro.

We're going to need Mom.

Right here.

Look, I'd like to talk to you all. Well, take a number, Mom. Cole's got a big

announcement.

I want you all to join me.

In a celebration.

Because in ten days' time, my boat and I have a date with the Pacific.

I'm sailing to Australia.

Where I've been asked to be a permanent partner in a new wine venture.

I'm going to miss you all very much.

And it's going to be hard for me.

have to do.

No. No, I am absolutely sure.

I don't want the test done.

I don't want to know the result.

Dr. Randall, I'm going to keep this baby.
