Previously on FalconCraft.

Lance, you open the door! Do you hear me?

The tissue samples did not match.

You're not the father of this baby.

May I kiss the bride?

I promised you a leg up in the valley if you disposed of Richard Channing. I

don't like threats, Angela.

Who and I, Miss Marlowe, are going to make a little deal whether you like it

not? So Angela arranged for you to impersonate Skyler.

That's right.

You still want me to find Angela with you?

Well, I will.

I'm going to run her into the ground.

I'm going to kill Roland Saunders with my bare hands.

And tonight.

As I see it, you and I both have something to gain.

You'll tell me where I can find Kit Marlowe.

It's amazing how much he looks like his father.

I think that we could have the baby placed in a suitable home by week's end.

want you to know that there is another way.

Yes. Tell your boss that Peter Stavros wants to see him.

What is this regarding?

I'm not in the habit of explaining myself to lackeys.

Mr. Saunders isn't in the habit of receiving visitors this late at night.

Saunders I know all about him.

If he's a religious man, I recommend he start making his peace with God. I'll

mention to Mr. Saunders that you stop by.

Polinsky. Stavros is here.

He's either a very jealous husband or he's on to me.

I want you to put a leash on him.

He just might take us or we want to go.

Yes, sirree, Miss Braxton. Things are definitely looking up. With Stavros and

his money on my team, Saunders' help won't do, Angela.

A lick of good.

Stavros is nobody's fool.

What happens if he finds out that you doctored Kit Marlowe's tape?

I need challenges, Miss Braxton. I only enjoy matching wits with the best. I

would be deeply disappointed if Stavros didn't discover that he had been Duke.

You haven't answered my question.

Hey, watch that.

Thought you were on a diet.

By the time Stavros figures out that Angela isn't guilty of the seven deadly

sins... He would have already bankrolled me, and Falconcrest would have been

dealt one more blow.

Well... I hope you know what you're doing.

If I don't, at least the ride will be exciting.

Been driving around thinking.

You and Maggie were expecting the results of that paternity test today.

My guess is you didn't get the news you wanted to hear.

That has nothing to do with me coming by.

There you go again, not being honest.

Look, just forget I said anything, will you? Forget I came by.

Forget the whole damn thing.

When are you going to learn that you're too much of a good guy to make a decent

liar?

All right.

We got the results. I'm not the father.

But that's not the reason I think you should stay in the valley.

If you want me to stay, you're going to have to give me something real.

I'm going to have to... Like what?

Like you.

You're real.

Yeah.

You don't know what you're saying.

I only say what I mean.

Now it's time for you to say what you mean.

I want you to stay here.

I need you to stay.

There will be the slightest chance of tracing the parentage of your child once

this adoption is completed.

How can you be so certain about that? I mean, I was adopted, and I was able to

find out who my natural parents were.

Adoptions of this type are worked out privately between the attorneys that

represent the two sides. It's a double blind.

You don't know who the other attorney is, and I don't know who that attorney

represents. The adoptive parents don't know who I am, and their attorney

know who I represent.

We are talking about a living, breathing, helpless little baby here,

kind of a business merger.

Mom, it's going to work out for the best.

How long should all this take?

Oh, barely any time at all.

Attorneys in the field have pools of qualified adoptive couples, and I think

that we could have the baby placed in a suitable home by week's end. The week's

end?

This just doesn't give me any time to think. Think? What more have you got to

think about? Look, I do not want to go any further with this until I know that

every item and every detail is right for my son.

Well, if you're the least bit doubtful, Mrs. Jabirji, you'd be wise to wait.

As I said, once this adoption is completed, it's irrevocable.

Let me know your decision.

are you doing? I don't know what I'm doing, Vicki. That's what upsets me.

to even think of keeping this child is completely absurd. I look at it, and all

I can think about is what Wainwright did to both of us. It is not the baby's

fault. Vicki, listen to me. Listen.

Look,

for nine months, I was convinced that that baby was your father's.

It was easy for me to say I would give it up for adoption because I never

believed in my heart that I would ever have to go through with it. If you have

any hope to win Dad back, you cannot let Wainwright's bastard weigh you down.

No, don't, honey.

I know this is difficult for you, but he's still my child. And Dad is still

husband. There's no way on earth you can keep both of them.

Your son needs you.

Barbecued hot dogs and a keg of beer are all the engagement party Vicki and I

need. There's more to this than just you and Vicki.

Now, an engagement party is not only a celebration, it's a statement.

It tells who you are and what you are.

I think hot dogs and beer say it all.

Well, I think black tie and a formal sit -down dinner say it better.

Now, look, you're coming up in the world, and I want you to get used to it.

You can make me wear the monkey suit and tie, Angela. You can't make me like it.

I'm a farm boy, not a mogul.

What do you think of Eric Starver's performance as the general manager of

spa? I think the man's doing a terrific job.

Now, there's a guy who looks good wearing a monkey suit.

I agree.

Well, I was going to keep this until later, but I think this is the

time. Appropriate for what?

To give you your wedding present.

500 acres of choice vineyards.

The day you and Vicki are married.

Well, is that a gift or a bribe?

It's your future.

This has to be a lot better than the present. You're late.

Hi, honey. How's your mom?

Totally insane.

Look, we have a lot of planning to do and not much time.

Why don't we just kill two birds with one party and throw a combination

engagement party for us and a divorce party for my parents?

Vicki.

For Vicki's sake, can we tone things down a bit?

I'll keep Vicki's feelings in mind. Thank you.

Tony and I intend to buy up distressed vineyards before the Tuscany Land

can foreclose on them.

Makes sense.

The only way to fight these guys is on their own terms.

Uh -huh. If all goes as planned, we're going to end up with a great deal of

land. Certainly a lot more than we can handle between us.

There's a management job available if you're interested.

I didn't sleep with you expecting anything in return.

It has nothing to do with what happened last night or what may or may not happen

in the future.

Then why are you hiding behind business?

Let's talk about us.

What about our future?

Let's let it lead us.

Let's trust ourselves, okay?

Okay.

Angela Channing would like to see you. Hold your wallet.

Hello, Angela.

Oh, hello, Chase.

I hope I haven't come at a bad time.

Whenever.

You're Miss Short, aren't you?

Yes. I heard about the foreclosure on your vineyard.

I really think it's a tragedy.

Thank you.

Oh, Chase.

I came over to give you an invitation to Vicki and Dan's engagement party.

How extravagant.

Of course, the invitation is for two people.

Under the circumstances, perhaps I'd better take one over to Maggie

Then you can decide which one of your ladies you would like to bring.

Tell me again about Skyler's death, Tony.

Oh, are you sure you want that, Peter?

Maybe we should just let go and get on with our lives.

Wise advice when dealing with the death of a loved one.

But we're no longer talking of death, are we, Tony?

What are we talking about? The truth.

Not another lie about Skyler Kimball. I want the truth about Kit Marlowe.

I never heard the name. I'm sorry.

I've been suffering the pains of hell mourning the suicide of a woman who not

only is not dead, but isn't even my daughter.

Why am I telling you?

You had the chance to end my suffering, yet you chose to perpetrate the lie. I

had no choice.

The world had to believe that Kit was dead because there were people after

People who won't stop until she is dead.

I don't know the whole story, but I love her.

And I had to protect her, and you'll have to forgive me, Peter. I know who's

after her.

The same monster who killed my Skyler, Roland Saunders.

Saunders? The tycoon?

The killer.

Kid Marlowe is the only person who can implicate Roland Saunders, and maybe

my own dear wife, in Skyler's murder. How do you know this?

Richard Channing. What's he got to do with all this?

I'd like to ask Kid Marlowe that same question.

You take me to her, please.

I'll try.

Just keep them in sight.

going to be the day, Mr. Kalinsky.

You love my mother, don't you?

Vicki, I don't think my feelings for your mother are any of your concern.

Richard, I didn't come here to make a friend. I'm sure you dislike me as much

I do you, but I think you care for my mother, and if you do, maybe you can

some sense to her. First of all, I don't dislike you. Second of all, your mother

and I are not in a habit of sticking our noses into each other's business.

But you're the only one that I think she might listen to right now.

Don't know about that. I imagine that would depend on what I'm supposed to be

telling her.

She's seriously thinking about keeping Wainwright's baby.

Oh, uh... Knowing your mother, I, uh...

Can't say that surprises me.

She's making the biggest mistake of her life, and all she can think about is

this kid's next feeding.

I mean, she's going through this whole motherhood thing as if everything's

perfectly normal.

You want me to talk to her? Yes, please, before it's too late. I think you can

help her make the right choice.

I'll do the best I can.

Oh, he's so gorgeous.

Maybe I shouldn't call him gorgeous if he's a boy.

Please, he doesn't mind. Besides, he is gorgeous.

Maggie, you don't have to give Douglas up for adoption.

You can give him to me.

It's perfect.

I mean, you could visit him any time you want.

Emma, his name isn't Douglas, all right? Well, but we could change it. Look, I

think it's time he went upstairs.

Oh, Maggie.

We don't have to change his name if you don't want to.

You heard these figures?

These are the ones I got.

This makes me very happy. Yes, I... Keep her away from me, Eric.

Hello, Eric.

Melissa.

Hi, Dina.

I'm late for class.

I wonder why she's so upset.

I can't imagine.

I was just about to send Lance a bill for that bar mirror over there, and I

wondering, should I send it today or wait until you've done today's damages?

I'm sorry about smashing up the mirror.

That's why I came by to apologize and to promise that there won't be any more

violent incidents.

Well, good. You decided to come to your senses and divorce the jerk?

Lance has made a few mistakes, but he's not a jerk.

I've made some mistakes, too. I think it's time that I forgive him.

Forgive him?

Just last week you were threatening to kill him for conspiring with Chase and

Maggie to take Joseph away from you. I think it was probably a good idea to

Joseph away to his father for a while.

It's not going to be forever.

Not if I'm a good girl.

Say goodbye to Dina for me, huh?

That is a cute baby.

Yeah.

Vicki was by to see me.

I'll tell you, she's alarming more people than Paul Revere.

She thinks I can talk you out of making the biggest mistake of your life.

I hope I can.

Don't do it, Maggie. Don't give up your baby for anything. Richard, I have to be

fair.

We'd both be outcasts. I'd have to bring him up alone. You wouldn't be alone

with me around.

I mean it. Look,

I don't care who Kevin's father is. Hell, I didn't even know who my own

was until I was 35 years old.

Kevin and Michael could grow up as brothers, and maybe they could find the

of family that none of us seem to be able to find for ourselves.

Are you proposing to me?

Let's just say we're having a mature discussion.

Well, from, uh... one mature person to another, um...

Richard, I'm confused.

I'm sorry, I'm just really confused.

It's all right.

I'll settle for confusion.

But I want you to know there's another way.

you later champ you look after your mother when i'm not around

Kiss? Nicky?

They're gone.

Then we'll wait. No, I mean gone. Clothes, everything gone.

Once again, we demonstrate all good things come to me who waits.

Check the bedroom. Yes, sir.

Is this the man who was following you?

Yeah.

The rooms here are cleared out.

What have you done with her?

It would appear we've reached an impasse.

Where is she?

What have you done with her?

If I knew where the woman and child were, I wouldn't have spent my entire

morning following you.

Have them put their guns away.

Gentlemen?

I'll get the hell out of here.

This is way out of hand.

I told Kit, let's go to the police. I'm telling you the same thing. We don't

have any evidence.

We don't even have... Miss Marlowe, my business with

Saunders is personal.

Police don't handle personal business.

You're blocking the owl. You know where she is, don't you? Where who is?

You know damn well I'm talking about Kit.

I thought you were keeping track of her.

Don't tell me you've misplaced her.

I've been comparing notes with Tita Stavros and your name keeps coming up,

Richard.

Why did she come to you for help? Why did she make that videotape?

I have no idea.

It's something you'll have to ask her the next time you see her. Excuse me.

Richard. Where is she? If it's any consolation, Tony, I'm sure Miss

doing just fine.

She has shown a remarkable gift for survival, but she just loves to suffer.

The lady ducked out on Compson like she did me.

It's all with fame.

I must admit I'm alarmed. I think we've hit a dead end. I won't accept that.

She's buried deeper than ever, Mr. Saunders, and we don't know by whom.

I think we do know by whom.

With the right incentives, I might be able to work a trade.

Personal involvement at this stage would put you at considerable risk, Mr.

Saunders. Risks don't frighten me, Kulinski.

It's failure I can't live with.

What's up?

I'll be eating out tonight.

Lance, please don't go to Dana.

I won't be home till late.

Join the bridge crew.

Lance, please.

You don't understand.

I need you.

I always have, and I always will.

What's the deal?

What do you want?

I want you to hold me.

Please.

Please.

Tyler. Oops, I've got a visitor.

I've got a visitor.

Oh,

good evening, Mrs. Janney. Good evening.

Oh, hello, Maggie.

Hi, Angela.

I won't stay for just a minute.

I just wanted to bring you an invitation to Vicki's engagement party. Oh, thank

you. And, um, you can bring your son if you'd like to.

And this is a little present for him.

Well, that really wasn't necessary.

Of course it is.

It's an old family tradition.

Every newborn Gioberti is entitled to a precious family heirloom.

Of course, he really isn't a Gioberti, so I thought it was more appropriate to

buy something for him.

Well, it's the thought that counts.

Yes, of course.

It's amazing how much he looks like his father.

Don't do this, Angela, please.

Well, he has to find out about his father's exploit someday, doesn't he?

I'll see you at the party, Maggie.

Good night.

And here are your keys.

I think this was the fastest escrow I've ever been through.

When you pay cash, you can cut a lot of corners. Well, I think you'll enjoy it

here. It's very quiet, the perfect home away from home.

The perfect home away from husband.

Melissa and I are back together, Dad.

Great, I'm glad to hear it. I admit, I wasn't holding out much hope, but it

looks like she finally came around.

It looks that way, anyway.

Now I have to figure out a way to get around my other problems.

What are the problems?

Cash flow.

You're kidding.

No.

The money problems?

Yeah. What happened to that windfall you made from the sale of the New Globe

stock?

Cost overrun.

I spent the whole morning with my houses.

Okay, they said I only have enough money to last a few months.

Well, at least you got collateral. You can go to the bank. No, I can't.

And I'll bar it out.

I don't want to go to Angela for a handout. And I sure as hell don't want

Tuscany Land Company to pick up the Agretti properties in foreclosure.

Are you asking me for a loan?

No way. I won't do that.

What I was thinking was perhaps you and Chase could buy us out.

You're willing to sell the Agretti vineyards?

Vineyards, winery, everything.

Short of going into business with you and Chase, it's the only solution I can

see.

Yeah, but if you sell, then what? What are you going to do with the rest of

life?

I don't know.

Visualization being essential towards the facilitation of goal achievement, I

have designed this work aid. Green designates properties you've already

through your Tuscany land company.

Red are properties currently facing financial distress.

Notice I've included your grandson's vineyards in this latter category?

I want that land.

I've lost the Agretti harvest for the last time.

Well, accepting the Agretti properties, your acquisitions produce grapes

markedly inferior to those endemic to falcon crest.

When do you intend to bottle this substandard product under the falcon

label? If I understand you.

You mean when am I sending Richard Channing bilge water instead of my

Chardonnay?

Basically.

Yesterday wouldn't be soon enough.

And your quality wines?

They'll be distributed by another company under a different name.

Tell me, what do you think of Angelica wines?

I like it.

I'll have it market tested immediately.

One moment. We're eclipsing our original time frame.

I better have the computer boys update our progress curve.

Mrs. Channing, Mr. Stavros is here to see you.

Jay Spence, Mr. Stavros.

I hold your accomplishments in the highest regard.

Regard people, young man, not their accomplishments.

Don't you have something to do, Mr. Spence?

I heard you were back in town.

Unguardedly, you've also heard that I know all about you and Roland Saunders.

don't owe you any explanations.

You owe me more than that.

Your behavior proves to me that our marriage doesn't mean a thing to you.

Skyler's suicide almost ruined your life and our marriage.

After what you've done, you dare speak Skyler's name?

I know the whole story, Angela. I heard it from Kit Bowler's own lips.

I put Saunders on notice. I'm doing the same with you.

Oh. is Kit Marlowe. I don't even know what you're talking about.

Feigning ignorance isn't going to work this time.

You conspired with Roland Saunders to bring that imposter into this house,

pretended she was my daughter, used her to get at my money and power.

You're talking about something I know nothing about. Now, you're making a

mistake. No, you and your Mr. Saunders have made the mistake.

You've been blinded by greed, Angela, and greed is going to be your downfall.

Now, you listen to me. You listen to me.

You wanted my money?

I'll give it to you.

But not the way you imagined.

My money won't bring you any comfort, my dear.

It will destroy you.

Roland Saunders, please. This is Angela Channing.

Is he in?

No, he's not, Mrs. Channing.

Well, tell him to return my call.

Yes, ma 'am.

Cut off the phone with Kit.

She said that she and her son are doing fine.

Good. But she's not crazy about the isolation in Carmel.

Tell her to write a letter to the mayor.

She'll make his day.

Hello, Cindy.

Oh, well, send them right in.

Mr. Saunders, an unexpected visit.

Is this?

Yes, it is. Now, if you're looking to get even in that pool game, I'm afraid

you've picked a bad time.

Actually, I'm looking for a trade.

Oh, I didn't know I'd have anything you'd be interested in.

Oh, I think you do.

As I see it, you and I both have something to gain.

If you tell me where I can find Kit Marlowe... What makes you think I know

she is?

Process of elimination, supported by you and your colleague's behavior with Mr.

Cumson. as well as your rather colorful history with the cartel. Call it an

educated guess.

Now, just assuming that I might know Kit Marlow's whereabouts, what did you have

in mind?

Help me get reunited with my son.

I pledge my financial aid in helping you get rid of Angela Channing.

I already have all the financial aid I need.

Perhaps there's something else I can do for you.

But for the life of me, I can't think of anything.

For the life of you.

Interesting choice of words.

Good luck, Mr. Channing. You'll need it.

I'd like to invite Lance.

To join our operation.

My feelings about your son are no secret.

He's changed.

Dramatically.

What's this about, Tony, really?

He's running short of money.

I can't let him fall to Angela.

And you and I can't let him fall to that Tuscany Land Company.

Then let's buy him out.

I came back to this valley to be in business with my son.

Not to buy him out.

If you feel that strongly against being in business with him, I understand.

You and I can dissolve our partnership. I'll go into business with him myself.

Tony, we've done so well. We've got plans. You don't want to do that.

I've turned my back on Lance enough times in this life.

I won't do it again.

I'm okay.

Sure.

Okay.

See you.

If he isn't mine... It will be the hardest thing that I've ever had to do.

But if he isn't yours, I'm going to give him up for adoption.

Don't do it, Maggie.

Don't give up your baby for anything.

It's amazing how much he looks like his father.

I feel so hurt.

I don't understand why Maggie would give little Douglas to a complete stranger

and not to me.

Emma, darling, look, everything is going to be okay. You know, I'm dealing with

one of the best private adoption attorneys in the city of San Francisco.

Signing all these forms is just a formality, really. Here.

Where? Right here.

Say something.

You know, all this signing, it's really one of the first things we've done

together as man and wife.

You've been such a good husband to me.

Hello.

Hi.

I'm sorry. I know I should have called. I just didn't want to get into it on the

phone, you know.

decided to give up the baby.

Uh -huh.

I see.

If you do, I don't know.

I love him more than... than I can explain.

But a visit from Angela made me realize that love is not enough.

The only way that he can have a decent life is growing up where nobody knows

truth, where nobody...

Can you say he is a gift?

It's very difficult for you, I know.

I think it's the right thing.

For him?

For us?

Who knows?

My decision to have this baby was the start of our problems.

My deciding to give him up doesn't even begin to solve them all.

There are no guarantees.

I'm not looking for any.

Would you like me to go with you when... No.

Thank you.

I just wanted you to know what my plans are.

By the way, Chase, if I should ever stop by again, you can tell Gabrielle

there's no need to hide in the other room.

Well? Well, you're only offering me a 5 % limited partnership.

No, no, no. An incentive bonus of an additional 5 % after the second year,

you can purchase 2 % more any time you want.

Plus, you want the right of first refusal should I ever decide to sell the

Agretti Winery or the vineyards.

That's fair market value. I mean, you're well protected, Lance.

No, you guys are protected.

Am I supposed to consider this a generous offer?

Consider it a fair offer.

More than fair.

I have a problem with your definition of profits, too, Jason. Look, this is a

favor, not a negotiation.

Your father assures me it's the right thing to do.

As far as I'm concerned, the jury's still out. Take it or leave it.

Excuse me. Mr. Gioberti, you asked me to remind you you have a doctor's

appointment in 20 minutes?

Thank you, Lois.

Look, take all the time you want.

Believe me, my feelings won't be hurt if you find a better deal.

Take the offer.

Okay.

It's better than I expected.

Well, then why didn't you just say so? What are you giving Chase such a hard

time for?

Because, Dad, that's what he expected me to do. If I acted any differently, he

would have thought I got too good a deal.

Ha!

Emma, darling, I promised you everything was going to work out.

You mean they're going to give us our baby after all?

Well, you know, there's a few more papers to sign, maybe, but basically...

knew I could count on you.

I'm so happy. I'm so happy.

What's all the excitement?

Oh, nothing.

Hi. Nice to see you. Listen, you tell me everything.

Has Sounders returned my call?

Not to my understanding, Mrs. Channing.

That man's rudeness seems to be charming or amusing.

You wish me to take him off the engagement party list?

Absolutely not.

And I want you to add Peter Stavros to that list.

I want to get to the bottom of this Skyler Kimball mystery.

And the only way I know how to do it is to get all of the participants in the

same room.

Yes, Mrs. Channing.

I need to take this first installment, so generously supplied by our new

partner, Mr. Peter Stavros.

Close the distribution deals on DeGioia and Greco wineries.

Will these wineries be enough to offset your losses from sabotaging the

distribution of Falcon Crest wine? Miss Braxton, as long as Mr. Stavros is going

to give us money, you've got nothing to worry about.

All right. I will call you when the deals are closed. I'll have to call you.

There's another matter I'm going to look at.

Cindy,

have my car out front five minutes.

Miss Braxton.

Glad to see you.

Where are we going?

To Kip Marlow, of course.

What makes you think I know where she is?

If you don't, Miss Braxton, your life just fell off the actuarial tables.

Oh, this.

This is his favorite.

That should just about do it. Oh, look what I'm forgetting.

That's very pretty. Isn't that pretty?

My grandmother quilted it for me when I was a baby. I was saving it for Vicki

when she had her first, but I really feel... Maggie.

Maggie,

Maggie.

Isn't there another way?

Oh, Richard, don't you think I've thought of everything?

All the mother's love in the world is not going to protect this child from the

people who know that his father was a rapist and a murderer. Now, what kind of

legacy would I believe in my son, forcing him to grow up under that kind

burden? I had to grow up under one. Then you, of all people, should know what

I'm talking about.

Richard, your entire life you have been... You have been wrestling with the

demons of your own heritage. You've been obsessed with gaining the approval of

people who are just... Barely your family. God, you can't even walk out of

house without putting on a full suit of armor. Can you?

You hate me for that? No, I don't hate you for that.

But I can learn from you.

Well, what if we take Kevin away from here? We'll go somewhere where no one's

ever heard of him.

Richard, in a few years, he'd want to know.

He'd want to know who his father was. He'd want to know what happened to him.

What am I going to tell him? I could lie. I could lie for a while, but I'm

very good at that.

Eventually, I'd have to tell him.

And I love him too much to do that to me.

You're sure that... He'll be just fine.

Oh, Jesus.

Is that it, Ms. Braxton?

Kip Marlowe's hideout?

Yes.
