Original subtitles

Previously on Falcon Crest. Angela, she's my daughter.

She's also my daughter.

I just got elected to the Glembratic board.

So did Angela. She's not gonna stop me, Garth. The children belong to you.

Now Richard may think he has the judge in his hip pocket, but we haven't had

day in court yet.

Him die.

Do what?

That's why I came here.

To know you before I die.

Well, if you can't beat him, kidnap him. Is that it? How long are you going to

keep me here?

As long as I have to.

And tonight.

Well, what is going to happen to Angela Channing? Are you going to keep me here

forever? Don't tempt me. I signed the adoption papers weeks ago.

You signed those papers knowing I was her father?

My son has epilepsy.

This wouldn't have happened if you guys would have taken care of him in time,

right? Tell me what to do.

Hide me, guy.

No, Tommy.

But I love you. You are up to something.

I have for you magazines, newspapers, the San Francisco New

Globe, Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett here, your illustrious

son -in -law, R .D. Young, and...

The complete works of Agatha Christie. That should keep you busy for a while.

You can bring me the whole library if you want, but you're not going to get my

stock. If you think that I'm going to lose Glen Braddock in the entire Tuscany

Valley just because you're too damn stubborn... To do your bidding for you.

You're not going to stop me.

Hell, I'm not.

Listen, I'm leaving for Chicago in an hour. You'll be interested to know that

I've moved the Glen Braddock board meeting to tomorrow.

The board will be voting with me, and oh, poor Malcolm St. Clair, he'll be

sitting there wondering what happened to Angela Channing.

Well, what is going to happen to Angela Channing? Are you going to keep me here

forever? Or maybe kill me?

Don't tempt me.

Oh, boy, is he going to be home.

The house wasn't the same.

So quiet.

Listen, Ben, as soon as you feel tired, I want you upstairs in bed.

Yes, Master.

As soon as you get better, as soon as we can take that trip to Los Angeles.

Really? Yeah.

He's been wanting to go to Disneyland since he was five years old.

That would be wonderful.

And then maybe we can go to San Diego.

And down to Mexico?

Yeah. Mexico.

You think maybe we could take Gabriel there?

I don't know, Ben. He's still pretty sick.

I'll make some coffee.

And do you know what? Your father made our favorite cake.

Yogurt cake, right? Yogurt cake. That's it.

She seems a lot stronger.

Maybe the Dodgers were wrong.

Let's hope so.

And when you get better, I'll take you to a giant game.

Gabriel prefers basketball, right, son? What difference does it make? When you

get out of the hospital, you're hitting the books.

Hey, if I'm still sick, how come I still gotta do homework?

Hey, well, you know how big sisters are, right? They bully you, they baby you,

and they generally drive you crazy. Thank you very much.

You look tired, son. You wanna sleep?

Come here.

Come here.

I'll get the doctor.

Somebody get a doctor, please!

Epilepsy. Sometimes people who have head injuries become epileptic as a result

of their accident. My son has epilepsy.

It's not as bad as it sounds.

In fact, he might not experience another seizure.

We have excellent medicines which prevent them from recurring.

There is no reason Gabriel can't lead a perfectly normal life.

This wouldn't have happened if you guys would have taken care of him in time,

right?

We'll never know.

You can't take the children out.

What did you say?

I'm sorry, Mr.

Channing's orders.

Well, certainly I'm allowed to see the children.

Yes, but the court order specifies only on the premises.

I want you to know how sorry I am about all this. Well, I'm sorry, too.

Richard lets Michael run off. He's almost killed, and I'm not allowed to

these boys out for ice cream?

Hey, let's go.

Come on, Kevin. We're going out for ice cream. Uh, guys.

Guys, come here for a minute.

Look, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid we can't go out.

But you told me!

Michael, I'm sorry. Come here, Kevin. Look at the boys.

I know how hard this is on both of you that your dad

and I are mad at each other, but it's going to be over soon, and then we can

lots of fun places, okay?

You'll have a good time.

That's a good smile. Thank you. I love you.

I love you both.

Did your grandmother call?

No. She always phones when she arrives. This is most unusual.

Well, she's the most unusual lady. I'm sure she'll call tonight.

I hope so.

Oh, look at this.

Thank you, Charlie.

This is great. My grandmother's away.

I'm sitting here with my lovely wife.

You like it?

Or you bored already, huh?

Oh, no, no. I like it.

Good.

There's just one thing missing.

My daughter.

Lance. But she's our child.

We got married to make a home for her.

And I thought you married me because I'm the sexiest woman alive.

I want Lisa to live with us.

Lance, it's too soon.

Don't you want her?

Of course I do.

But I don't want to make her miserable by taking her away from the only parents

she's ever known. Oh, come on.

She's crazy about us. Lance, look.

A few months ago, I felt the same way you do. I was determined to get Lisa

But now, I think it's selfish.

Lance, we're only thinking about what's best for us.

Not for Lisa.

You don't want her.

Do you?

I'm scared.

Lance, what if we tell her and she turns on me and hates me for giving her up?

That's the chance we have to take.

I already signed the adoption papers.

You did what?

I signed the adoption papers weeks ago.

You signed those papers knowing I was her father?

What do you want me to say?

Lance, I did what I thought was best for Lisa.

I'm her father. I'm not going to give her up.

Let me know when dinner's ready.

Come on, Malcolm.

Say something.

You brought as much fun as a funeral.

No, I'm just pissed about the change of plans. I mean, what's the hurry? Why

push the board meeting up?

Why don't we just stick to the original plan?

Malcolm, I would if I could, but I can't, all right?

You're just mad at me because I own Glen Braddock now I know you. Where the hell

is your mother?

How should I know? Am I my mother's keeper?

Now that the two of you are on the Glen Braddock board, I just figured that you

would keep track of each other.

I'll tell you the truth.

My mother's in Greece, visiting a sick friend.

Tragic situation.

Interesting couple.

One of the richest men in Chicago.

His wife must be in London.

Naughty boy, huh?

What is it? Do you know it?

Will you excuse me?

Could have sworn you were a happily married man.

Oh, well.

It says here, marriage is no cure for lust.

Malcolm, you'll excuse me. I would much rather spend the evening looking at her

than you.

Can't say I blame you. I'll see you tomorrow.

Thanks for reminding me.

No, I can't make it any later than midnight.

1 ,400, petticoat name.

Thank you.

I'll decide who touches me.

It's a deal.

Only don't go back in there.

I have a date.

Not a particularly scintillating one, as far as I can see.

That's where you're wrong. He's brilliant, witty.

Charming. Get rid of him.

Why?

Because you'd rather spend the night with me.

What makes you so sure? I'm sure, and so are you.

We're going to make love, and you're going to be sorry you wasted two minutes

thinking about it.

It could be awful. It's been known to happen.

That's what makes it intriguing. We'll hope triumph over experience.

Stay tuned.

Could you tell Mr.

Clyman I was called away? An emergency.

Yes, Miss Rowland. Tell him I'll phone him tomorrow.

Oh, an old -fashioned girl.

Full of surprises.

So they tell me.

Are you going to call Mercedes and Steve?

I promise.

And Lisa will come to visit us, okay?

Okay. Now can I please see a smile on that face of yours?

Okay.

Moratorium on Lisa for the time being.

We just have to figure out the best way to handle it.

That's all.

Lance, a call for you. Mr.

Sinclair.

Thanks, Charlie.

Hello? I'm trying to reach Angela Channing, and I understand that she's

town, but there's a very important vote tomorrow.

Wait a minute. That meeting's not supposed to take place till next week.

That's right, but your uncle moved it up. He did what?

I need your grandmother's vote.

Can you track her down for me?

I'll do what I can.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

Your old boss is trying to track down grandmother.

You know that board meeting that's supposed to take place next week?

moved it up.

You better find your grandmother.

Yeah, hello, operator.

Connect me with the Grand Britannia Hotel in Athens, please.

Without your grandmother, Malcolm won't have enough food. Stop, Richard.

Okay, thank you, operator. Please connect me when you have a line.

Excuse me.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'm interrupting your dinner. No, don't be silly. Come on in,

come on in. Gee?

Yeah, yeah. I had a sandwich at my desk.

That sounds familiar.

I used to do that all the time.

Uh, listen, I've decided to move into the spa. I think it makes more sense now

that the children are back with Richard.

Maggie, please stay.

We both want you to.

Well, to be honest with you, I think I'd feel more comfortable at the spa.

So I'm moving out tomorrow.

Okay. Maggie.

Yeah.

I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am that this happened.

Call us if we can do anything for you.

Okay. I'm fine.

I just want my children back.

I know how she feels.

Yes, would you please connect me with Angela Channing's room?

Channing, C -H -A -N -N -I -N -G.

What do you mean she's not registered?

Where did you get all these?

Do you like them? Yes.

Yes, very much.

I especially like this. I love this.

They're mine.

I took them last year.

I expect to have a show end of my work in the fall.

Are you a photographer?

No.

I'm a prostitute.

But you're rather, I said, hooker or courtesan. I prefer courtesan. They were

very powerful and influential in their time.

It's a rather dangerous line of work these days.

Not if you're careful, and we courtesans are very careful.

No communicable disease is only desire, and that's nothing to be afraid of.

Well, that's where you're wrong.

You do very well in your chosen profession.

It's a living.

Yes, a good one.

It's a living most women wouldn't choose.

Photography is an expensive hobby.

Do all hookers hate men?

Yes.

Now, are you going to get sanctimonious on me? I'll get very bored.

Just that here all this time I thought you were attracted to me.

I am attracted to you.

It hasn't happened in so long I thought it would never happen again.

Today is my birthday.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

And you are my birthday present to myself.

I hope you like it.

With you it's strictly pleasure.

No business.

I gather you were not able to reach Mrs. Channing or get her proxy.

Correct assumption.

They love Malcolm.

Richard Channing isn't here either. Is there a family aversion to meetings?

We've waited long enough, Malcolm.

Let's get on with it.

All right, why don't we take the vote now?

All those in favor of the plan for the development... Top of the morning,

everyone.

Sorry I'm late. Sorry, sorry.

You called the meeting, Mr. Channing.

The least you could do is be on time. You are absolutely right, and I

to each and every one of you.

And a special good morning to you, Malcolm. I know you are sorry to see me.

No argument there.

All right, let's begin again.

First order of business is the plan for the Tuscany Valley.

For industrial complex, which will control the production, marketing, and

distribution of all Tuscany wines.

All those in favor.

Motion is carried.

Hi. Hi, Frank.

Do you want something?

Sure, I'll have some coffee.

Where are Nick and Ben?

Upstairs.

Ben was feeling tired.

Oh, God.

It hurts.

What can I do?

Your medicine.

Did you take your medicine?

Yeah.

I think it's not working anymore. Well, we'll get something stronger.

No.

There's nothing to be done. There is something. We'll find something.

I must go to Italy.

No, no, no. No, no.

Now, listen. Listen.

You're in no condition to travel, Anna. Yeah.

Nick loves you so much, and he wants to take care of you.

Him and Ben both.

Talk to them.

Make them understand.

What?

They must let me go.

And not hate me.

Please.

Tell them.

I don't want them to watch me die.

Please.

Please.

Please.

Please.

I don't really want to talk about me.

How long have you been married?

Not long.

And my wife walked out on me.

So... How do you feel? How do I feel about her walking out on me? I don't

it. We have two children. I want her back.

Hey. I really... I don't like affection in public.

You don't like affection in public? Did you learn that at finishing school?

No, actually, that was a given in my home.

Do you know why I was attracted to you?

Yes, because I remind you of a long lost love.

You are a dead ringer for a woman I used to know.

She died not long ago.

Did you love her?

No. But you slept with her?

Yes.

So what was she like?

She, uh, she had a good heart.

She was wild, impetuous, a little crazy like the rest of us.

She, uh, went over the edge.

Sort of the opposite of you.

Cool.

Sophisticated.

An extraordinary woman.

Why do I think that this is goodbye?

Not a chance. I should have left hours ago. I'm still here.

For how long? When do I have to let you go?

The hell with finishing school.

See?

Hello, folks.

Hey, Tommy.

You okay?

Hey,

Tommy.

I didn't mean to scare you.

That's all right. Sorry.

I just got a lot on my mind.

Your brother?

Yeah. My kid brother.

The one that I'm supposed to watch out for.

When it's in a hospital now, because of me. You can't take the blame for that.

But it was my fault!

If I had been hanging around with that Paco guy, Raul never would have went

after him.

Oh, come on, Tommy. The whole gang situation is just out of hand.

Could have happened to anybody. But it happened to my brother.

Why can't we do a story on the gangs?

I can tell you how they work.

Tommy, calm down. I don't think the gangs are the problem. I think they're a

symptom. I think it's unemployment.

I think it's bad schools. Look, the police.

I've been working on this for years. If they can't come up with anything...

Right. Nobody can do anything about anything. I've heard that all my life.

My brother lies there unconscious.

Nobody x -rays him. Nobody does anything.

Now that we can do something about.

Hospital negligence. Right.

You want to work on that?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

You're dreaming about coming back to San Francisco with me.

You mean it?

Mm -hmm.

I have a proposition.

I told you not this night.

Oh, well, now, come on. Let me tell you about Melissa.

I don't want to hear about your other lovers.

Oh.

Melissa killed herself not too long ago. My mother blames herself for it.

They've been fighting for years over a piece of land, and recently my mother's

had a nervous breakdown.

She's taken a calling out to Melissa.

Richard. She wants to talk to her. Richard.

Don't ask me to impersonate Melissa.

I wouldn't, but I think it's the only way to help my mother.

It's too weird. I can't be someone else.

Think of it as a mission of mercy. You're helping a sweet old woman.

Who's in pretty bad shape right now.

I don't think so.

Here's the best part.

You can name your own price.

I'm still the hooker.

Rentable by the hour. No, no, not by the hour. This is an assignment.

I'm going to pay you so much money that you won't ever have to sleep with

anybody else but me for the rest of your life.

What if I get bored with you?

No problem.

What if I get bored with the job? That is a problem.

I don't want you to get bored with the job. I want you to stay on the job until

it's done.

I want to see my mother get well.

I want her to be happy.

I'll set you up with an apartment in San Francisco.

What if I say no?

I'll leave.

Do you need my mom here?

No, it doesn't do any good.

Baby,

what do you need?

I'll do anything, Woody.

Do you mean that?

Of course, baby. Tell me what to do.

Nick, help me die.

Please.

Please.

Pilar, there's a gentleman here to see you. Mr. Sinclair.

Malcolm, you could have at least waited for an invitation.

Oh, Chow Lee.

Could you please bring Mr. Sinclair some coffee?

Yes, ma 'am. Thank you.

Imagine my surprise when I spoke to your father and he told me the good news.

That you married one of the richest men in Tuscany.

I married the man that I love.

Now, what's on your mind, Malcolm?

Richard is still in control of Glenn Braddock.

I have no choice now but to go to the SEC and report Richard.

Pilar, I need your help.

You said no once, but I really want you to reconsider.

It's too big a risk.

Pilar!

Oh, sorry to break this up.

Thought you might want to go jogging with me.

Lance, I'd like you to meet Malcolm Sinclair.

Oh. We spoke on the phone the other night. Congratulations.

Thank you. Please, sit down.

Malcolm stopped by to tell me that he's reporting Richard to the SEC.

And he wants me to testify.

Do it.

By all means, do it.

Richard is not going to hurt you or anybody else.

Would you like some breakfast, Lance?

Yes, shall we?

I think I will.

Oh, picking locks is not your speciality, Mrs. Jennings.

I know.

So why don't you give me a key?

I made your eggs just the way you like them.

The way I like them is at my breakfast table in my own house.

Would you like some coffee?

If that's the brew they serve in Richard's office downstairs, no, thank

You are a clever woman, Mrs. Jennings. Yeah, well, if I were clever, I wouldn't

be a prisoner in this penthouse.

Not a prisoner.

A guest.

Garth, do you like waiting on people hand and foot?

Well, it's my job.

I asked you if you liked it. I've had no complaints from my employers.

Well, I was going to offer you a lot of money to get me out of here.

But I suppose that's not a very good idea.

Oh, Mrs.

Channing, what would I do with a lot of money?

Hello, Garth.

Has my mother tried to bribe you yet?

Oh, yes, sir. Good.

She must be feeling better.

I have a surprise for you.

It has occurred to me that Garth, charming though he may be, Might not be

suitable companion for you.

I thought maybe a woman might be better.

Well, you thought wrong.

You know how I hate girl talk.

You haven't met the girl.

Hello, Angela.

I went to see Dr. Ambrose today.

I wanted to find out if she had something stronger for Anna's pain.

All she gave me was more morphine. Enough for a week.

She should be in the hospital.

She doesn't want to go into a hospital and spend her last days drugged into

unconsciousness.

She's fighting so hard.

Don't fall apart now, Nick. She needs you.

She wants me to help her die.

She's got it all worked out.

She takes enough morphine to get her a little drowsy, and then when she starts

to fall asleep, I give her more injections.

Eventually, she dies of an overdose.

There are very rigid laws about that kind of thing.

Frank, what do I do when the woman I love begs me to help her die?

Do I say no because it's against the law?

Okay,

I want to attack this from two fronts. Number one, the hospital negligence, and

number two, prejudice against Hispanics and the valid.

So, Amos, what do you think? Sounds good.

I want to snoop around the hospital a bit, find out what really happened.

I have a feeling there'll be as many versions as there were witnesses.

Tommy?

Well, I've lived a prejudice all my life, but I'd like to talk to my father

some of his friends.

Good. Well, I think we have a plan.

So, Amos, why don't we get started?

Right.

And, Tommy, you can do some interviewing on your own. Maybe go to some of these

little towns around here, find out what situation is the same, what situation is

different. Wait a second.

Sorry.

What's wrong?

I moved out of Falcon Crest.

Taking a room at the spa.

Are you okay?

No, I'm not okay.

I'm the mother of two small children. What am I doing living in a hotel by

myself?

Listen, let me take you out for a pizza.

Everything seems better after pepperoni.

Well, I can't feel any worse even with pepperoni.

So you see, I never died.

I left the hospital and went to Mexico, where I've been living these past few

months. I've had a chance to think things over.

I thought I couldn't survive losing Falcon Crest.

But as you see, I have.

It's time to reclaim what's mine.

My cousin Nick had no right to turn Falcon Crest over to you, and now that

back, we'll go to court.

The deed is genuine.

You know it.

I know it.

And when we're in court, everyone will know it.

Guess what time it is. Bedtime.

Bedtime. You're so smart.

All right. Tomorrow, vegetables. You guys are going to eat your vegetables

me, right?

Right. Right. Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.

Good night.

Good night, Michael.

Thank you, Mrs. Frazier.

Good night, Mom.

want the children, Richard.

Well, then you'll have to come home because this is where they live.

Unfortunately, this is where you live, too.

Peggy.

And I will be on the extension listening to everything you say. You'll keep it

brief. Just tell your grandson that everything will be all right.

And if I don't?

Falcon crest burned once, it can burn again.

Well,

I wouldn't put anything past Richard.

Grandmother, where are you? I've been trying to reach you. I thought you were

staying at the Grand Britannia.

Well, I thought I would take a villa so I could be closer to Peter.

Oh. Well, how is he?

Um, much better, I think.

You know, I tried calling the clinic, but all the phones were disconnected.

Oh, the windstorms. A lot of the phones are down.

Grandmother, you missed the Glen Braddock board meeting.

Richard's plan went through.

Now, the whole valley is... Lance, I want you to listen to me very carefully.

I want you to plant the Chardonnay before the week is out.

The weather's changing and we might be too late.

But, but, Grandmother... Just do as I say.

You know, the Chardonnay is one of our most important wines.

That was strange.

What's wrong?

Well, uh...

Grandmother asked me to plant the Chardonnay vines.

We planted them two weeks ago.

I know.

I didn't want to say this in front of Lance, but my price is still the same.

Half your Glen Braddock stock.

Oh, why?

You don't need the money. You're one of the richest women in the valley now.

No, Malcolm.

I married one of the richest men in the valley.

There's a big difference, you know.

It's Lance's money, not mine.

But you can have anything you want.

Providing Lance is okay.

He's in control, I'm not.

Come on, you married him.

You should know that all relationships are political.

And the one who has the money makes the decisions.

I guess you could say I'd like a little more equality in my marriage.

And you expect money to give you that?

It's a great leveler.

I thought that was love.

Richard, two of my favorite people. Hello, Malcolm. Hello, Pilar. Hello,

Richard. What are you doing in town, Malcolm?

I heard that Pilar was married and I came to congratulate her. Oh, my.

Well, Pilar, goodness, you should be flattered a man travels 2 ,000 miles to

congratulations when he could have simply picked up the telephone or sent a

telegram. Richard, would you like to join us? No, thanks. I've already eaten

I've already kissed the bride.

Enjoy yourself, Malcolm.

Thank you.

He'd give anything to know what we're talking about.

Yes, well, he'll find out soon enough.

You say we have a deal?

Yes, Pilar.

The ones I have a partner I don't mind looking at.

Are you going to the SEC?

Who let you in?

Charlie, of course. He's used to seeing me around here.

My mother used to run this place, you know.

That is before you arrived on the scene. Richard, I'm awfully tired. Why don't

you go home?

I will as soon as you answer my question. I'm not crazy about surprises.

What are you doing here?

I was just asking your wife why she was at the spa with Malcolm St. Clair.

Don't mind Richard.

Oh, come on. He's just annoyed that I'm going to testify against him to the SEC.

The last time you slept with St. Clair Pilar, he made you vice president of

Tuscany Interstate.

And what are you now, chairman of the board?

I think you better leave while you still can.

He's beside me.

How are you feeling?

The same.

I'm so tired.

I'm going to let you get some rest then, okay?

No, no, please.

Just stay.

Stay with me.

I'll stay with you as long as you want.

I like your friend.

Andrea.

Yeah, she's okay.

You are still very young, but... I... I want to tell you this.

To have someone in your life is the greatest gift.

The woman you marry should be your best friend.

And you must give generously of yourself.

You will share your life without losing yourself.

She must do the same.

You understand me?

I love you, Mom.

I love you. You will. I love you too.

I love

you.

I love you, baby.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Is there anything I can do?

No, no, I'm just thinking.

About the kids, huh?

Yeah, about the kids.

About Richard.

Well, this is all set up.

Ready for life in the 80s.

Well, honey, Daddy could be very late. I think you should listen to Mrs. Fraser

and... I want to listen to her. I hate her. Why don't you come back?

Why don't you love us anymore?

Oh, Michael, darling, I do love you. I just... Daddy and I... Don't lie to me.

Daddy wants you to come back. Why don't you love us?

Michael, I don't want you to even think that.

I love you and Kevin more than anything in the world. Believe me, I... Mommy.

Hey, big fella.

Mrs. Fraser's looking for you.

Time to go to bed.

I want to go to bed!

What are we doing to this child?

Damn you, Richard!

Damn you!

It's okay.

It's not okay!

It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay, it's okay.

I'm here.

Please.

You better go. Tommy, I mean it.

Look, I... I'm not going to solve one problem by compounding it with another.

My problem is Richard making love to you is not going to solve that.

Please go.

I just need a chance.

Look, you're a wonderful guy. You're a real friend, but this is just...

Just tell me.

Nick.

I never said it was going to be easy.

But you didn't say it was going to be cruel either. I'm not helping her,

Richard. I am hurting her. You are not hurting her.

Samantha, it is only temporary.

She will snap out of it. Believe me, before you know it, that woman will be

own sweet self.

I don't think so.

It is so. Believe me. Samantha, you are making too much of this.

And what am I supposed to get out of this? A million dollars.

A million dollars doesn't go very far these days. In short, hell will if you
