was adopted by a couple here in los angeles what's the name what's the

are you hiding something from me no i'm gonna give you everything you want

yeah Did you kill Roland Saunders? No.

Don't lie to me.

I didn't kill him. I found him. I think you should tell the district attorney

what you told me this morning.

About Tony Compson?

And tonight.

I wanted to give you a chance to explain.

Unfortunately, you did.

I've been waiting 17 years for a case like this. And I've got all the evidence

need for murder one.

I've known for a long time that I need you.

Who the hell has my baby?

The sooner you're out of my life, the better.

The heart is sad and lonely.

For you I sigh, for you tears

await.

Why haven't you seen it?

I'm all for you, but it's not.

I can't believe it.

It's hard to conceive it that you throw away Rome.

Are you pretending it looks like the ending unless I could have one more

chance to love you?

Dear, my life a wreck

you're making.

for just...

Thanks, honey. I'll see you tomorrow. Wait, I'm serious.

Forget the slumming socialite.

You're the seductive socialite. With a little bit of promotion here, we could

have a hit.

I don't want any promotion.

I just want to do my thing and be left alone.

What's the matter, Garbo?

Don't tell me you're the shy type.

I just want my life kept simple.

That's all.

Okay.

Great.

A ducat for your son.

What?

A ducat.

It's a medieval coin.

You're cute.

Listen, you hunk, I'm more than just cute.

What were you thinking about?

It's about your father, isn't it?

Listen, it's not your fault.

You didn't tell the police anything.

I can't believe my grandma would back out of this. Damn it, we had a deal.

I was even ready to move back to Falcon Crest.

You were going to leave Melissa.

I appreciate your concern. You came all the way down here to see how I was

doing?

I've been waiting 17 years for a case like this.

An important man dies, the killer has no alibi, and I've got all the evidence I

need for murder one.

If you had the evidence you needed, you wouldn't be here right now.

Why don't you save the state a few dollars and yourself a few years, huh?

Talk into this thing. Just say the word and I'll turn it on.

Why do you want me so badly?

Why don't I just leave this with you, huh?

In case you decide to change your mind.

Right.

Hey, Mom.

Want some breakfast?

So you slept here last night, huh?

Yep.

Makes one of us.

Vicki, isn't it a little early for champagne?

A little late.

I started last night.

Did you and Dan have a fight? Yeah.

The difference of opinion.

It's Dan's opinion I shouldn't sleep with Eric Stavros when I'm engaged to

I won't be engaged to him.

Hello. It's me.

What'd you find out?

Well, Stryker told me the name of the people who adopted Kevin. It's Hudson.

But, uh, it disappeared.

What do you mean, disappeared?

Up and left.

No forwarding address, nothing.

Well, somebody must know where they are. Friends, relatives.

Well, not yet.

But I'll do whatever I can to find them.

What are you doing here?

I came to welcome my dear husband into a new day.

Why did you let Richard take my wines away from me? Oh, yes, your wines.

The whole world knows how much you love your wines, more than anything else,

including your family, including me.

Well, my wines have never betrayed me.

Now, I want them back now. Well, talk to Richard.

Well, he said he would sell me his half if you would sell me yours. Not a

prayer. Well, I'll just have to have my attorney talk to you.

The distribution contract is unbreakable. But the marriage contract

What do you got?

That murder of yours was one dumb bunny.

Bunny? Yeah.

Saunders was a walking time bomb. Take a look at that.

Bad ticker, probably congenital. Bad arteries, probably cholesterol.

Bad lungs.

Cigars, for sure.

Another six months, this guy would have been six feet under.

Look, that's all very nice, Jake, but what did Saunders die of on Saturday?

Oh, trauma to the base of the skull?

No question.

What with the murder weapon?

No weapon.

There was blood on the forklift blade, though. Well, that means there must have

been a fight.

Well, a simple push.

Not necessarily premeditated.

Jake, please look again. Dig deeper. I don't want this to be accidental.

I did my job. I dug very deep.

There were no bruises, no scratches, no broken nails.

Compson wanted Saunders dead. I feel it in my bones.

Well, I didn't find it in Saunders' bones.

And my final report goes out today as is.

Looks like the best you're going to get is involuntary manslaughter.

It ought to raise Angela's blood pressure a few degrees.

Not to mention the Tuscany farmer whose land she stole.

Yeah, I'd give anything to see Chase and his little girlfriend's face when they

read this.

We are talking the best fireworks at Falcon Crescent the 4th of July.

Senator Preston. Go with it, Sally. Go with it. Oh, oh, oh, oh, now.

I want you to find a good picture of Angela. I want one really good and

bloodthirsty. Okay, you got it. All right.

Excuse me. Maggie.

I'm sorry to barge in, Richard. No, you can barge in any time. Listen, I want to

take out two full -page ads.

You think I can get it into tomorrow's edition?

For you, Maggie Giaverdi, I would stop the presses any time.

Richard. What's up?

Chase got the name of the people who adopted Kevin.

Evidently, they've moved, so I need to find them.

Forget the ads. This is a front -page story.

Richard, I can't ask you to do that. You're not asking anything, Maggie. It's

baby we're talking about. I want to do it. We'll call it a mother's plea.

I want my baby back.

Any luck, I'll shove it through the wire services and we'll have national news.

You really are something, you know that? You have a definite flair for the

dramatic.

You haven't seen anything yet.

Will you do the article?

Yes.

Will you have dinner with me tonight?

and get to work.

Yes, sir.

It doesn't seem strange to you that people would just up and take off a few

after adopting a baby, leaving no forwarding address, no nothing?

Well, they're right, Chase. I mean, it may not be all that orthodox, but I

see it as something sinister.

Does this mean you're just washing your hands of the whole thing?

I'm not the FBI. I don't have a web of informants across the state.

But you do have contacts. I know that, and I need your help.

I can lean on Stryker, I suppose.

Maybe he knows something more than he's telling.

I wouldn't doubt it. In the meantime, I'm offering a reward.

$100 ,000 for information leading to recovery.

Look, I don't think that's a good idea.

Why not?

It just might be better to work quietly for the time being.

I'll do anything I can to get that baby back.

Oh, Jake.

What? Do me a favor and run that through your lab, will you? I want to find out

why that thing looks like a bad spark plug.

What do you think happened?

Major Smith in the drawing room with a poison cigar?

You know, you're getting obsessed.

Will you just do it, please?

Thanks for bailing me out, boy. I'm glad to get out of here. I was out just to

breathe fresh air.

Do any of what you can, Compton.

You'll be back.

I first met Jack Hudson at Santa Anita Racetrack.

Very nice man.

He went on and on about this baby he and his wife were hoping to adopt.

What does Mr. Hudson look like?

Normal. Five feet, ten inches, about 180 pounds.

Did Jack Hudson ever take you to his house, Mr. Linton?

Oh, sure.

I'm telling you, we were like two peas in a pod.

He had a real nice house.

Stucco, like most L .A. houses.

I've been to his house, Mr. Linton. It's not stucco. You don't really know Jack

Hudson, do you?

Well... Maybe I'm mistaken.

I've got to run.

Next.

Come on, Charlie.

Would you like to have some tea, Miss Penny?

Yes, I think I would.

You can put it in the...

Charlie, are you all right?

Yes. Just a momentary dizziness, that's all.

Well, I think you should see a doctor.

That won't be necessary. I won't hear another word. This has been going on too

long.

I'm sure it's just fatigue.

Better get that tea.

Afternoon. Good afternoon.

What a surprise.

Does this mean you're coming back to Falcon Crest?

I don't think so, Grandmother.

You broke our agreement.

Well, it's either that or watch you rot in jail. So you'd rather see my father

rot in jail instead?

Now, don't let him pull you down like he did your mother. I can't believe there

was a time when I actually believed that bull. Now, you listen to me.

If I find out that you've done anything else against him, I'll make you pay.

Oh, I'm petrified.

You must be.

Why else would you want to blackmail me into moving back here?

You need me.

I need a Gioberti, not a Cumson.

Well, you're going to get what you deserve, Grandmother.

Neither.

Why in the world would I know where Kit Marlowe is?

Come on. She made that tape for you. You found that cabin in Carmel for her.

Tony, I like charming company. Miss Marlowe happens to make me laugh.

But I haven't seen her.

You and I are not friends, but finding her will save me a lot of trouble and

maybe a few years in San Quentin.

You think Kit had something to do with Sonder's death?

No, no, I just want to talk to her. Just want to talk to her.

Now, Meredith says that you were the last person to have seen Kit Marlowe.

If she contacts you, will you let me know? I will indeed.

Any foe of Angela's is a friend of mine.

I've always said that.

If he finds her, you could be in a lot of trouble. Oh, I've been in trouble my

whole life.

She could accuse you of all sorts of sordid things. Oh.

Like, for instance, using her to destroy Peter and Angela's marriage. I did

Peter a favor. Your job is to find Kit Marlowe.

She won't come back easily.

Miss Braxton, this whole operation is resting on your shoulders.

And if I do find her, what'll I do with her?

Don't worry about it, will you? I have everything under control.

I will think of something.

Mrs. Channing, you have a visitor. Miss Gabrielle Short.

Well, Miss Short, what can I do for you?

I'm sorry, Miss Channing. It happened so fast. Oh, never mind that.

Another winery like hers, I'd turn the other cheek.

I was hoping I'd find you here.

Mind if I pull up a stool?

Why not? Even your company is better than no company at all.

You make me blush, Peter, when you describe our friendship in such intimate

terms.

However, I do need a favor, friend.

Who do you want to help in destroying this time?

Chase Gilberti, the Queen of England?

Oh, nothing as mundane as all that.

I'm looking for less aggravation, not more.

This is my half of the Falcon Crest distribution contract.

Why don't you buy me out? I need the money.

I thought you intended selling it to Angela.

You thought wrong.

So did she.

Peter, I understand that you would like to have Angela under your thumb.

This is the perfect way to have her all the way under.

The check, as they say, will be in the mail.

Ah, you're a cookie full of arsenic, Sidney, and I'd hate to bite into you.

Bored Lancaster than Tony Curtis' sweet smell of success.

Look, Jake, I know that's your favorite movie, but that's not why you dragged me

out here, is it? Oh, no, your hunch was correct.

The cigar was put.

You're kidding.

With what?

Paraguay.

Paraguay? That's a run -of -the -mill insecticide.

Run -of -the -mill, but deadly.

Did you test Saunders, see if he had this stuff in him? I passed cadaver 101.

The tests are already underway.

You know what this means, don't you? You know what this means?

That somebody wanted Saunders dead.

That's first degree.

Murder one.

Well, when you said dinner at the beach, I had no idea you meant on the beach. I

wanted you to have the night off away from your troubles.

I considered having violin.

And I thought the saxophone was more us.

Don't you think? I do.

I do.

I don't know what the future holds.

But I do know that right now, there is no one else I would rather be with.

Shall we?

I'd love to.

Tell me something, Richard Chan.

When did you get so damn romantic?

Oh, let's see. I think it was about five years ago at Angela's house when I

first saw you.

Corny? Yes, it's corny. Well, damn it.

If a man can't be mushy in a tent on the beach with a beautiful woman, when can

he? When can he is right. You are very sweet.

Maggie, I've known for a long time that... I need you.

I know what you want me to say. I don't want you to say anything.

Well, if you want to say...

Do you think you might, you know, feel something more?

I don't know.

After five years, believe me.

I wonder how Maggie's holding up.

She's all right.

She's a strong woman.

Yeah?

All right.

How you doing?

Well, I'm still stewing over Angela Channing.

You know, for about 20 seconds when I walked out of Falcon Crest, I felt

terrific.

I was a hero.

And... By the time I got to my car, I realized slapping Angela didn't mean a

damn thing.

I've got to accept I'm never going to get my land back.

Well, you'll go on to other things. Yeah. Better things.

My welfare still stands.

Anytime you want.

You can be in charge of winery operations or tuberity enterprises.

You know, it's very tempting.

We'd be great together.

What am I talking about? We are great together.

And together, we could get back at Angela.

Living well's the best revenge, huh? Yeah, something like that.

All right, lover.

What do you think of our 74 Cabernet? Oh, I've always

enjoyed your wine, Miss Channing.

but it's not often I get to dine in such elegant surroundings.

As a matter of fact, all the years I've been district attorney, I've never been

invited here to dinner.

Well, that's because I didn't know how good you were at your job.

You've certainly proven yourself with this Saunders affair.

I can't go into details, but I discovered something today that I think

that this murder was premeditated.

By Tony Compton? I am sure of it.

Now, he was married to your daughter for quite a while, wasn't he?

Yes. It's a dreadful union.

He drove her to drink years ago.

And this year she ran off to a convent.

I would imagine that a case like this would propel you into something much

better for yourself.

Attorney General has always appealed to me.

Oh.

Well, Fred, I want you to do me a favor.

I want you to send Tony Cumpson...

up the river so far that he will never see Tuscany again.

And after that, I'll be in touch with you and let you know how the campaign

Attorney General is going.

Bad news. There was no poison in Sondra's bloodstream.

Are you sure?

Want to do it yourself?

I don't understand.

If there was poison in the cigar, how come there was no poison in Saunders'

system? Simple.

He didn't smoke enough of the cigar.

Oh, no. We're missing something here.

We, Fred?

Whoever poisoned the cigar got impatient.

Now, I know that Saunders was murdered, but how?

I've been over Saunders once.

Jake, would you go over him twice?

Please, for me, personal favor.

Oh, all right.

There was a time you used to come to Falcon Crest without an invitation.

Did you just come to chat?

No, I have a wedding to plan.

Have you and Vicki set the date?

There won't be a wedding, Angela.

What do you mean?

Well, call me old -fashioned, but I hate to see my fiancé making love to your

stepson at our engagement party.

Eric?

What?

How could she do that?

After all I've done for her.

I admire your compassion.

I'm sorry, Dan.

I know you must feel terrible.

And I know how fond you are of Vicki. So you understand that I intend to make

myself scarce around Falcon Crest.

I'd like to avoid any awkward moments.

I owe you my first loyalty.

But I'm not blood.

And Vicki is.

There you go.

Hey, that one little Carolina is great.

Look,

he's going to make a touchdown.

Uh -oh, he's introduced him by that number. It is a touchdown for one little

Carolina. Hey!

Hey,

pretty good guy. Oh, he's great.

Oh, come on. Here we go. Hey,

you're pretty good. You know that?

You guys are pretty good. Yeah, well, what do you say you go get us a couple

popsicles every time?

Okay, there you go.

Oh, Vince, I am...

As happy as I have ever been.

Really?

You know, there's only one thing that would just make it perfect.

Yeah, what's that?

Big church wedding.

But, uh, Emma, you know, we're already married.

I know.

But that justice of the peace is a complete stranger.

And no one I knew was there except you. It just didn't feel like a real wedding.

Vincent, is there some reason you don't want a church wedding?

Emma, a church wedding's what you want. That's what you're going to have, okay?

You were saying something about strength.

You were right about the Giverny men being flawed.

I think it's true of most men.

You mean like Dan?

What do you think?

Well, as you said, I could shape him.

With my help?

Of course.

Make him into the man we want him to be?

Absolutely.

Angela, what do you suggest?

Oh, well, I don't know.

What have you done so far?

I've got him on the defensive. He knows there are other men I could turn to.

Eric Stavros, for example.

Eric Stavros?

Well, now, he's quite a catch.

He's young, attractive.

Has a lot of money.

I don't care about his money.

Well, maybe if you stuck around, you'd meet another young, attractive man with

even more money.

Angela. And hop into bed with him, too.

Angela, you don't understand.

Of course I do.

And I won't tolerate it under my roof.

Now, Vicki, this little tea party is over.

I wanted to give you a chance to explain.

Unfortunately, you did.

Got a minute?

Sure, come in.

Did you get your stuff?

Yeah.

Are you leaving?

Yeah, I'm going to San Francisco for a few days, trying to clear my head.

Dan, I know I pushed you away.

I don't know why.

Maybe fear?

I learned a long time ago.

There are all kinds of bad addiction.

Drinking, drug, gambling.

Yours is you, Vicki.

If you ever get over your problem, look me up.

I am over it.

Dan.

I love you.

All right.

Let's just hit the road, see where it takes us.

You mean leave the valley?

Why not? We can make a home together, wherever, whatever.

I thought you liked Falcon Crest and came back here for a reason.

You've lost Falcon Crest, Vicki.

That's what this is all about.

By the time I come back here, you're going to be out of my thoughts, out of

plans, and out of my dreams.

Goodbye, Vicki.

I got packing to do.

What do you mean? You're telling me the Hudsons don't exist?

The social security numbers they gave Stryker were false.

They weren't in that house in L .A. a month.

In fact, whoever they are, they lied about virtually everything.

You're talking about fraud.

We're going to get to the bottom of this, Chase, I promise, and Stryker is

to help. He owes us.

Who are these people?

Who the hell has my baby?

Say.

Who's she?

My gift to you.

Joanne Finch. She's the best lawyer Stavros Enterprise has retained. I have

top San Francisco lawyer of mine. Well, check her out.

I think you'll agree with my judgment.

Look, I want to help you, Tony.

I know you're innocent.

I don't have to get involved.

Well, it's on my conscience.

Because I know damn well that Angela helped put you behind bars.

I went to Richard's office. I tried to find out if he knew where Kit was, but

he's gone. For God's sake, she's the last person you want back.

She can tie you to Stafford's death, Sonder's death, a forgery fraud.

You're going to look like co -conspirators.

Joanne?

Tony Compson?

Joanne Finch. How do you do, Miss Finch? I'm sorry, but I don't think I'll be

using you at all.

Even if you do decide to hire someone else, our discussion might pay off for

you.

All right, what do you think of the case against me?

On the evidence so far?

Involuntary manslaughter won't take two seconds.

She'll do the job, Tony.

I am innocent, you know.

And I'll do my best to prove it.

Red. You are going to be one happy buckaroo.

You've got something. Not something. The thing. You were right.

Saunders wasn't killed by the fall.

Saunders fell because he was killed.

By what? What killed him? You got me, but... Whatever killed

him had to look something like this.

There were two indentations in Saunders' skull.

This... Exact shit.

What the hell is it?

Find it. You got your murder weapon.

Oh, Mrs. Channing.

I hope I'm not intruding.

No, no, not at all. Please come in, Jake. Goodbye.

Mrs. Channing. Yes.

I don't like to come in unannounced, but I found another bottle of Cabernet 74,

and I thought you might like it. Oh, well, that's very, very thoughtful of

Thank you. Please, won't you sit down? Yes, thanks.

Channing, I know this is out of left field, but do you have any idea what

might be?

Yes, it's a bat spanner.

All the wineries have one. We have one at Falcon's Rest.

That's great.

This is what Compson used to kill Saunders, then.

May I use your phone a moment?

Oh, sure, please.

Oh, Carlo, this is Miss Channing.

Is our bat spanner close by?

Oh.

Thank you.

It's missing.

I won't show any mercy.

I will have the best divorce attorney in San Francisco.

You collect attorneys like other women collect diamonds.

Perhaps I could arrange for an annulment.

Let me save you some time.

I've already filed the papers.

Well, eager, aren't we?

The sooner you're out of my life, the better.

I'm afraid it won't be that easy, my dear.

What do you mean?

I've bought out Richard.

As of yesterday, I have 100 % control over Falcon Crest Wines.

Well, that's a nice little bargaining chip for our divorce proceeding.

Unless I decide to keep the wines.

It'll be a memento of our so -called relationship.

I have lost a few battles in my life, Peter.

But I have never lost a war.

I'm ready to take you to the doctor now, Mrs. Channing.

Well, thank you, but I would prefer Charlie to drive me.

Channing, as part of my training, I spent two weeks at chauffeur school.

Where is Charlie? I specialized in high -speed terrorist evasion tactics.

Oh, you'd be quite safe with me.

Charlie, in fact, I took high honors in the 90 -mile -per -hour class.

I'm ready to take you to your doctor, Miss Channing. Are you sure you're up to

driving? Yes, I feel much better.

Are you sure you wouldn't like to take me up on my offer?

Yes. I would like to get there in one piece.

I don't want to get involved with you, Vicki.

You think that's why I'm here?

Am I wrong?

Don't be such a son of a bitch about it.

You're crying.

Why not?

Dan told me to take a hike. Angela threw me out of the guest house.

Tell me something, Vicki.

The other night at your engagement party...

Did we have a fantastic time?

Or did I just catch you on the rebound?

It was nice.

But I was hurt, too.

Just because you and Dan are different doesn't make you the bad one, you know?

You don't know anything about him. I screwed up. But at least I tried, damn

That's the point.

Nobody should have to try that hard to make a relationship work.

I need you, Eric.

I don't need you, Vicki.

I'm just a pit stop on the way to Dan Fix.

You won't be.

Ever.

What's going on?

A search warrant, Chase.

Wilkinson's looking for Paraquad.

Why?

Something to do with the Saunders investigation.

I didn't want to ask too many questions.

Wilkinson, what do you think you're doing? You can find Paraquad on half the

farms in this town. Relax, Chase, relax. I'll be out of here in a minute.

This is... This is crazy.

Hey, Compson.

Yeah?

Some rent you got there.

It's called a vat spanner. What do you use it for?

Opens the valves on vats.

And what else?

He's just jerking you around, Dad.

Are you finished?

No.

But you're finished, Compson.

Good to see you, Angela. Hello, Doctor.

Hello, Charlie.

Well, would you mind following me into my office, Charlie?

Mrs. Channing, I told you, no doctor. Charlie, I'm worried about you. Now let

Dr. Ross examine you. If you can't do it for yourself, would you please do it

for me?

Charlie!

I tricked you fair and square. Now go in and have an examination and feel

better.

Pete Marlowe flew to Zurich via London two weeks ago.

Under what name?

Madeline McKittrick.

How did you find her?

No problem. It's easy as coffee, tea, or me.

Miss Braxton, please, are you sure it was her?

I showed a picture to several airline people.

They remembered her quite well.

She's a striking woman, I suppose so.

And I found the name Madeline McKittrick by breaking into the computer file of

passenger lift.

The only person traveling with a small child in first class that night.

Don't suppose you have a passport?

Several. Don't suppose you'd fly to Switzerland?

For you, Richard Channing, I'd fly to the moon.

I won't die.

Charlie, I won't let you.

Richard said they can get into the morning edition.

I just wanted you to read it through and see if there was anything that I left

out. Maggie.

What's wrong?

I had a meeting with Francine Hope this morning.

And?

The Hudsons don't exist.

Don't exist? What do you mean, don't exist?

Social Security numbers they gave Stryker were false.

The house they had in L .A. was rented. They'd just been there a month.

They've disappeared.

I think something's in my mind here.

First the blood samples get mixed up, and now this?

I called a friend of mine in the FBI. He's going to help out. Help out?

Chase, we need more than help. We need some answers.

I really admire the way you're handling this.

Good thing to say.

Now, just hold on.

Hold on. I guess the two of you need to be alone.

Maybe we do. She didn't cause this. No, she didn't.

She didn't help, did she?

Sorry about that.

I don't know, Richard.

I'll tell you, I feel as if my life is unraveling right in front of me. We all

feel like that sometimes. I wanted to throttle that woman. I just...

You still have feelings for Chase.

It's okay.

You're allowed.

What am I going to do about my baby, Richard?

I don't know where he is. I don't know who has him. What am I going to do?

Whoever has your baby apparently isn't reading the newspaper and they don't

about the reward money. Maybe we can target their heartstrings if they've got

heart. I'm going to get you on tonight's news. Oh, wait a minute. What?

It's like a sideshow. I don't think I can do that. I don't want to... You can

it. Just take what you have. You've got a beautiful face, passion.

The most important thing you have is love for that child.

Use it, Maggie.

Don't let it eat away at you like this.

Welcome home.

I'm sorry, honey. I just needed some time alone.

Of course.

But I don't want to be alone now.

Well, that's pretty convenient, isn't it?

Making time and place for our relationship. Come and go as you please.

I know it's been really tough for you the last couple of days.

With your father and all.

And I haven't been there for you.

And... I've been very secretive, and you probably think that there's another

man, which there isn't.

And we've been through so much pain together.

And yet I still need you.

I don't know what keeps us together.

So if you have any information about these people, please, please call me

at this station.

The number is 415 -555 -1218.

Mr. and Mrs. Hudson, if you are listening to this,

I'm sure you have grown to love my baby.

I know how...

You know, Rebecca, you really can't believe everything that you see on

television.

You see that lady right there?

She looks really nice.

She and Chase did a terrible thing by sending your little brother Joseph away.

And they've just begun to pay for it.

It's only an arraignment.

It's taken so long.

Wilkinson's last desperate plea.

He's got nothing on you. That's right, Dad. Don't worry. He'll be out here by

time for lunch.

It'll be my treat.

All rise.

The Superior Court of Tuscany Valley, State of California, is now in session.

The Honorable Pat Ambrose presiding.

I'd like to approach the bench, Your Honor.

That won't be necessary, Miss Finch.

I've been asked for a revised charge to be filed against you, Mr. Compson.

Based on recently acquired evidence, the state of California hereby charges you

with first -degree murder.

Your bail is hereby revoked.

Fair enough. Will you please escort the prisoner into the holding cell?

Why?
