Previously on FalconCraft.

How the hell are you shooting your mouth off to Richard?

I've been feeding you all these facts so you can do a full expose on this guy,

but if he ever finds out, we're both dead meat.

Curtis Remick.

What? John Remick. I was right.

John Remick is missing in action because you sent money to his enemy.

He admitted killing him, but I don't know why. Yes, you do.

You're behind it all, and I'm going to prove it.

And tonight.

Come on!

Alyssa, it's so good to be home.

I never thought I'd see you again.

Well, you haven't.

Well, not exactly the perfect honeymoon, is it?

If you need a shoulder to cry on, mine's still got your name on it.

The only thing I ever wanted was to unite the two Falcon Crest properties

together again.

That's all yours.

To the destruction of Angela Channing.

No comment.

At least not until my own reporters get the exclusive.

You'll have to read about it in the New Globe.

I want to be sure you know how very much Chase

appreciated your dedication and your loyalty.

And I don't think I have to tell you that I wouldn't have made it here for

minutes without your help from all of you.

Mrs. Channing has...

assured me that your jobs here are secure.

That's right.

Of course, now you'll be working for Falcon Crest. Right on time.

You know what they always say, time is money.

Well, got what you wanted, Angela, all of it. Chase's land, his winery.

Well, all I've ever wanted was to unite the two Falcon Crest properties

together. Well, you've done it.

I'll tell you what, I'm going to sleep well tonight. I'm not going to worry

about rain.

worry about the frost new beginning and i intend to enjoy it look all

i really wanted to say was uh thank you all of you and i'm

going to miss you excuse me

now

all of you who want to work for me uh with a substantial raise of course

Would you please step forward

He's

in trouble

Agreed. But what are we going to do about it?

I know what you two are whispering about.

You think I'm cracking up, but I'm not.

Emma, why don't you come upstairs and lie down?

I'm busy.

This bomb shelter is a mess.

You know, I know you're terribly upset about the death of your friend.

And we all know who's responsible for it, don't we?

Emma, the police said that Curtis was killed by an Asian who was trying to

an expose of Interpol.

Curtis was working on a story about Richard. A big story.

He even warned me how dangerous it was.

And now he's dead.

Esther broke with nobody. He didn't have any connections.

There's no way he could have damaged me.

Not without help, anyway.

We got a leak, Garth.

While I'm gone, I want you to find it and plug it.

Off to the Caribbean!

Listen, we gotta go away for a few days.

So, uh, just pack a couple things.

Because when it's time to go, we gotta go.

Am I missing something here?

Channing set us up.

The gambling death, the assassination plot, all of it.

How do you know that?

Curtis Estabrook.

He's dead.

And I don't want that to happen to us.

Now pack.

Okay.

But I'm going to warn my mother. She's going off on a honeymoon with this guy,

and I don't want her to go without knowing what... Please, when are you

figure it out that your mom thinks that she can save Richard Channing? That's

why she married him.

She doesn't care what a bastard he is.

One thing I will tell you, though.

Channing's going to pay our way.

Mr. Grady, Mr. Fix left before the afternoon mail came.

There's a letter for him marked personal. Could you please see that he

Sir.

I'll make sure he gets it.

Dear Dan, I know that this is going to be a big shock to you to get this

but I'm out of the hospital now, and the doctors say I will be okay.

I want so much to talk to you.

Just a minute, please.

Yes, can I help you?

Melissa O 'Grady.

Yes?

You know, I always loved the musty old smell of a wine cellar, didn't you?

Do I know you? Growing up around a winery always gave me a sense of

Exactly what do you want, Mr. O 'Grady? What do I want?

I'll tell you what.

I'd like a bottle of your 1948 Cabernet Reserve.

I'll pay you well for it. I'll give you $10 ,000.

You're crazy. Maybe.

But you can't put a price on memories, can you?

Nothing yet?

No. What about this?

When we were kids, your father and I snuck down here to the cellar and got

Dad's prized burgundy.

We were so sick, he didn't have the heart to punish us.

Now... Uncle Frank?

Well, it's just so good to be home.

I never thought I'd see you again.

Well, you haven't!

Nothing ever changes around here, does it?

Sorry. Still feels good to be home.

Oh, I don't know why I bothered unpacking.

Would you like to talk about it?

Richard, I gave away my children's legacy this morning.

That was Chase's doing, not yours.

Curtis, every time I close my eyes, I can see his face.

And his mentioning John Remick.

And my God, Emma.

Emma adores you. Why would she turn on you like that?

She was upset.

Come on.

Let's go on our honeymoon and put all this behind us.

I want to send a telegram to John Remick. Find out what's going on. I'll

Garth look into it. Mrs. Channing.

You've got to promise me something.

Yes. And you let me do all the worrying.

Okay?

We are about to embark on a long overdue honeymoon, and I don't want anything to

get in the way of a little old -fashioned romance.

Our recruitment of Richard Channing has proven costly.

Indeed.

I'm afraid we'll have to give up on him.

Nonsense.

It's always hard to fill the 13th chair.

It isn't easy to find a man with the money, the ambition, and the desire for

power we all share.

You're actually looking forward to the challenge, aren't you, Rosemont?

Channing is my kind of soul.

Good at the center.

But just a little taint of evil around the edges.

You'll become one of us.

You'll see.

Why are we doing this?

Because if we don't show up to see your mother off, Rich is going to wonder why.

Smile. Wow,

what a nice surprise. Look who's here.

Your mother appreciates that.

Hello, Eric.

Hi. So,

how'd it go?

It wasn't easy, but I'll tell you, we are lucky to be out of that place

it caused our family nothing but problems.

Yeah, well, I don't want to sound cheap, but that kind of cost us a lot of

money, too. And saved us a lot of grief.

You're right. Am I right? I'd love to be right.

All right.

You've got to go. Okay. Yeah.

Have fun. Oh, thank you. I seem to be having a hard time keeping track of my

wallet lately.

What?

Bye -bye.

Shall we?

Bye -bye. Bye.

Bye.

I hate him.

Oh, would you stop that?

You are terrible.

Is that what you said a few minutes ago?

No.

Dan?

Do you ever think about your ex -wife?

Where'd that come from?

I don't know.

Do you?

Yeah, I think about her.

She was trouble.

She was also my wife.

Hey, you did everything you could for her.

There's nothing I could do.

I was watching her in that coma.

I just wanted her to open her eyes and talk to me.

Unfinished business there.

Do you still love her?

Wouldn't matter if I did.

But Suzanne I married is gone.

Where are you going?

Well, some of us have to work for a living, you know.

It's like a ride into town.

Well, thank you, but I'm actually going the other way.

I love you, Dan Fix.

Southbound express service to Los Angeles with intermediate stops in San

San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Ventura. Now boarding gate number three.

Who are you?

Who's Dan?

Well, he couldn't make it.

He wanted me to make sure that you got settled.

Raisins?

Well, there's only one man in the world who would send me raisins, and that's

Frank Accretti.

Haven't forgotten me, huh?

Not even after 20 years.

Oh, Frank.

You look marvelous.

You know, you look exactly the same as the day they crowned you Raven Queen of

Duskety Valley.

Oh, you silly man.

Come on in. Thank you, darling.

To be forwarded to the Justice Department in the event of my death or

disappearance. When is that to work?

Curtis, what were you trying to tell me?

I'm kind of surprised that you came back.

After what happened, I'm pretty surprised myself.

Well, you know, 20 years is a long time, Frank.

Children grow up and loyalties change.

Where were you all those times?

Oh, just about everywhere.

Did some exploring. Spent a lot of time in South America.

I even trekked all over Burma looking for boobies.

And I staked a claim to an Alaskan gold mine. Oh, dear.

Instead of taking care of the agretti vineyard, like your father wanted you

to do.

Yeah, he didn't get his wish, though, did he? No.

Well, what's the story with this niece of mine?

I think you should trade her in for something a little less dangerous.

Like a rattlesnake.

I heard about the feud you were having with her.

Angie, I need a favor.

You think you could help me do something about the feud she's having with me?

Are you kidding?

No.

You know the old adage about mixing oil and water.

Well, I know one person who can mix them.

That there Angela Channing.

Huh?

Richard.

Richard, this is perfect.

This is just perfect.

I intend to spend the rest of my life making sure it stays that way, Mrs.

Channing.

You know what I really love, and I cannot believe that we are alone.

No kids, no guards, no security team.

Just us.

This time, Mrs. Channing.

Oh, my, hello.

Thank you.

Now, if it's Evangela, I suggest we have her tested.

Is it good?

Who's our secret admirer?

Management.

I hope this is all right.

Fine.

I thought Dan would be here.

I'm sorry, Suzanne.

There's no real easy way to say this.

He's not coming, is he?

No, he's not.

You know, I promised myself I wouldn't come here, talk, and walk again.

Took ten months of physical therapy, but I made it.

Suzanne, I know that you haven't had an easy time of it.

But neither has Dan.

He spent seven years in prison because of you.

And then...

loving wife had OD'd herself right into a vegetable.

Well, I'm not that same person anymore.

And I still love him.

He's not the same person anymore either.

He has a new life, a good life with me.

He's happy, Suzanne.

And if you really love him,

You won't take that away from him.

Good evening.

Right on cue.

Hey.

I wasn't sure you'd come.

Dinner with the two people I despise more than anyone else on Earth? I

pass that up.

Charlie, now that we're all here, you can serve dinner.

Yes, Mr.

Cunning.

Jelly's made something very special for tonight.

Frank, would you test the wine, please?

Delighted.

Good -looking label.

I think I'll pass.

Oh, now, your grandfather used to say if you don't sample the competition, you

don't know what you're up against.

Oh, I think Melissa knows who she's up against.

So tell me, um, what is this little get -together all about?

Well, you and I have some things to talk about.

That's why I came back.

My father never had anything to say to you.

Why should I?

Melissa, there's one thing I learned, and that's how important family is.

Whether you like it or not, you're all the family I got.

Oh, you're a fine one to talk about family.

After you tried to steal everything that belonged to my father. Melissa, that's

not so.

And where the hell were you at his funeral?

Carlo and I said our goodbyes long before that.

Yes, I know the story. I believe that it went something like this, didn't it?

Be my guest.

I can't remember when I've enjoyed an evening more.

That's what a family I got, huh?

Why didn't you tell Melissa the truth?

Oh, I can't be the one to come back here.

And destroy the girl's memories of her father?

Well, she should have been told the truth a long time ago.

Well, it doesn't matter now.

Carlo robbed you of your half of the Agretti vineyards and threw you out of

valley. And since she was a child, he's told her insidious lies about you. Of

course it matters.

What are you laughing at?

You, Angie.

You're still so dear.

Oh.

Listen, Frank.

Why did you come back?

I did come back because of her.

I've got something to give her, and I think it's important.

Well, what is it? I can't explain it now. Not now.

Well, you don't know Melissa like I do. And whatever this is about, I hope she's

worth it.

This is important.

If anything happens to me, I have mails and papers to you often.

Operator? Yes, operator.

I'd like the number of the Justice Department, please.

Bring, sir.

I have someone on deck.

All right.

I'll get back to you. All right.

I believe you're up to bat, Mr. Rosemont.

If the metaphor holds, I don't intend to strike out.

We removed all salient material from Estabook's office.

And it might interest you to know that your intervention in that African war

inadvertently to John Remig's being listed as missing in action.

Oh, funny. That's just what your bald assassin said.

Before he slipped to his death.

Tragic loss.

But one we can all live with.

You see, we have big plans for you, Mr. Chatter.

Chuck.

Excuse me.

Could you just take this?

Thank you.

Ali,

pay attention.

Ali,

your body's here, but your mind's somewhere else.

It's a personal matter.

Maybe I can help.

Some burdens can only be lifted if they're shared.

I have had news from my daughter.

From China?

My uncle, the head of my family, is very ill.

I'm sorry, Charlie.

He has summoned me back.

It is my duty to go.

Yeah, I understand.

It is the country of my ancestors, Lance, but it is not mine.

I've never even been there.

I do not wish to leave your grandmother.

But I have no choice.

I know.

Dan?

I checked the spa for messages.

They asked me if I got my letter from Oklahoma.

Where is she?

Where is he, Melissa?

At the bus station.

Suzanne!

Suzanne!

Suzanne! I didn't know.

That's okay, honey.

Well, that's explained everything to me.

What did she say to you?

She loves you, Dan.

I don't want to screw up your life again. That's not good enough. We've got

talk. Now get off the bus. No, that's not a good idea.

Now wait, wait. Come on. We've got seven years with this stuff. We've got to

deal with it. You've got to get it down and take off.

Now wait!

Wait!

Okay, what about this? There's a tour of old colonial houses. That might be

nice. No? Okay.

Parent failing.

Parent failing. I've always wanted to try that.

Another phone call for you, Mr. Cheney. Oh, thank you.

Yes. Sir, I have the information you wanted.

Go ahead, Garrett.

All right, dear Celine.

And? It seems Mr.

Esselbrook is getting his information from Eric Staffros.

All right.

I'm sorry.

Well, not exactly the perfect honeymoon, is it?

Well, my businesses don't just stop, you know. Thank you. I told him I was going

on vacation.

A vacation?

Is that what this is to you, a vacation?

I thought it was the start.

You know, the beginning of our life together.

Maggie. And for you it's just business as usual, isn't it?

How did you do that?

Stood over Richard Sheldon, huh?

Ooh, this is no space, huh? Among other things.

How do you feel about robbing a switchback?

Dan, don't do this! Nobody interferes in my life the way you did.

Okay, I...

I just didn't want to lose you. I should have talked to you. Well, thanks to

you, I got to follow her all the way to Oklahoma.

Dan, please don't go. Please. I love you.

Don't worry. I'll be back.

The police saw her walking on Fisherman's Wharf in a day, so I had the

give her a sedative.

I don't know how this happened to her, but the more I think about it, the more

I'm sure she's right about Richard.

I'm going to call the SOB.

Allow me.

Would you please just leave us alone?

Hello, Maggie.

How was your honeymoon, dear?

May I speak to the bridegroom?

What? It's your mother. Oh.

It's your mother.

I wouldn't kid about that.

In case you're interested, your sister is under sedation.

Is she all right?

Now, it's bad enough if I find a body in my house and another one on my terrace.

But when my own daughter gets hurt... Just tell me what you're talking about.

She was working late at that rag you call a newspaper.

She found some papers that Curtis had left for her and then she was attacked.

Now, I think the correct word is mugged.

What did the police say?

They haven't got a clue.

They're probably on your payroll. Now, listen.

If they would do this to your sister, imagine what they'll do to your

Why don't you think about that on your darling little honeymoon?

Sorry, I must have tripped up a stupid oven.

Thank you. Sorry.

Wait a minute. I had a package.

Thank you.

Sorry. Thanks a lot.

Well, it was almost fun while it lasted.

It wasn't the honeymoon we planned. Oh, is that an understatement? Oh, God.

Hacking one more time. Come on, woman.

We're going to be honeymooning for the rest of our lives. Yeah, one lives in

hope.

Listen, Richard, Richard, Richard.

I understand.

I mean, I really, I do.

At least I think I do.

Someone's trying to sabotage the paper.

First they get to one of my reporters.

How am I?

If I'm not there to personally supervise the investigation... I know. It'll just

all fall apart.

It will. I'm sure it will.

Now, just would you... I'll make it up to

you.

You bet you will.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Yes,

ma 'am.

Martini dry, please.

So, are you okay?

Fine.

What difference does it make to you?

Oh, it doesn't.

I was just in the lobby earlier today, and I saw what happened.

Don't know what you're talking about.

Fine, just have it your way, okay?

I usually do. It runs in the family, but I guess you've noticed that.

What I've noticed is that you're just as rude and arrogant as my father said

you were.

Rude?

I'll tell you what's rude.

Accepting an invitation to Angela's and smashing all the glasses like a spoiled

brat, that's rude.

And don't try and blame it on the famous Agretti Timber. Forget it. You're an

amateur. Now, wait a minute. Sit down, niece.

Let me tell you something.

You know, I've had a hell of a life, Melissa.

I've done some things some men only dream about.

And I've done them in places people only read about.

I've made fortunes, and I've lost them, and I've made them back again.

You know what has gotten me?

Nothing.

No wife.

No kids.

Nothing except you.

You're my only living relative.

And the way things are turning out, that's a hell of a legacy, isn't it?

Here, you feel your act coming on again?

Thanks.

I'm sorry.

What are you guys doing here?

Stupid questions. Yeah, we were, um, going on our second honeymoon.

Uh, yeah, so how about you?

Business, personal business.

Though it's hard to do anything around here without half a Tuscany showing up.

Kelly, I'm really going to miss you.

I'm glad the doctor says you're well enough to travel.

If she weren't, I wouldn't be sending her up to Julia's.

Kelly, have a safe journey and don't worry about a thing. I'll stay out of

freezer. Thank you.

We're going to get you checked in.

Over there? Straight.

The only person sticking around Tuscany?

Well, you know what they say about rats and sticking chips?

Yeah. Hey, man.

Melissa going with you? Not a chance in hell.

Come on.

Here.

Listen to me, okay?

The doctor said you should rest and have plenty of it.

Rest? Yeah.

How can I rest when I can't stop thinking about Richard and what he did

Curse? Emma, now you listen to me.

Richard is my responsibility, okay?

I don't want you to worry about a thing right now.

I'll take care of everything.

Okay, thank you.

I know you have a family in China, but your family here is going to miss you

very much.

Have a good flight.

Thank you, Chinese.

Are you going someplace interesting?

Second honeymoon.

There's a lot of that going around.

Oh, Emma.

Now, I don't want you to think about your worries at all.

Well, thanks to Lance, I'm going to try.

Oh, darling.

Here's your boarding pass. See ya. Thank you.

I'm going to check up on somebody. I'll see you back home.

Okay.

Well, we'll have a little peace and quiet around here for a change.

Should have changed the locks.

I should have.

I rang the doorbell, but I guess you didn't hear.

Hey.

It can't be all that bad now, come on.

Yeah.

Do you want to make a bet?

I saw Dan at the airport.

This wouldn't have anything to do with that, now, would it? Oh, God.

I really did it the first time. I want you to, honey.

Talk to me.

Dan, I went to Oklahoma to see his wife.

His ex -wife.

It's all right, darling. We'll see them in the morning.

Wake him up.

Oh. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

I thought you would want to see this right away.

Oh, is that a response to the telegram we sent John Remick?

No, I'm sorry, Mrs. Channing. Nothing yet.

Give me a minute, Garth.

So.

Don't tell me you're leaving.

I won't be long.

Richard, that is not the point. You know, I am your wife now, and you are

just cutting me out.

I don't mean to. I know you don't mean to, but you do. Look, I'm telling you

something, and I mean this.

If you don't find a way to make some time for us to really let me into your

life, this marriage is not going to survive.

Len. Hi, it's Maggie.

Is everything all right? No, no, no. No, everything's fine.

Listen, do you know a detective agency that has connections in Africa and

in Europe?

I believe so.

I want to find John Remick.

Frank, you look terrible.

Thanks, pal.

What's wrong?

I came back to the valley to make peace with Melissa.

Well,

I just spouted off at her about her lousy behavior.

Now she hates me more than ever.

Well, at least you tried.

We both tried.

So why don't you just forget it?

I can't.

Well, give it a little time.

There isn't any time.

Well, Frank, there's always time. Angie, listen to me.

I'm dying.

I don't understand. You've got such a festive group here.

What are you celebrating?

The murder of Estabrook or the attack on my sister?

Need I remind you?

Estabrook was determined to see you in prison.

I would have handled him, and I certainly wouldn't have resorted to

it. Perhaps.

But it is cleaner this way.

No loose ends.

Is she just a loose end? Your dear sister was about to deliver Estabrook's

dossier on you to the Justice Department.

It's a shame that you and your lovely bride didn't have much of a honeymoon.

Business can be such an annoying distraction.

Why not let us take some of the burden from your shoulders?

And in the process,

We'll increase your power 13 -fold.

I don't do business with people who can't deliver.

You wanted the second cortisol of Mr. Gioberti's will revoked.

Consider it done.

According to this, Angela Channing was in collusion with Chase's

lawyer, Len Potts.

Excellent forgery, don't you think?

Use it tomorrow or save it for another rainy day.

I wouldn't mind seeing Angela get attached to the land so that when she

loses it, she would know what she has really lost.

I think we've kept our part of the bargain, Mr. Channing.

And now I think it's time for you to keep yours.

Join us.

We'll see that you get what you really want.

The destruction of Angela Channing.

Next on Fountaincrest.

My father warned me about you.

Really? Yeah, how you try to cheat him out of everything he owns. This, uh, a

granny heirloom.

Just, what is it?

Whatever is between us has nothing to do with my boys. Well, I don't use

children as weapons.

You haven't hurt them, have you? No, I haven't. Look, he's a mercenary. He's a

hired gun. I just want to ask a couple of questions, man.

You better have a good reason.

Are you accusing my husband of murder?
