All language subtitles for Falcon Crest s09e06 God of the Grape

Previously on Falcon Crest. The doctors
say Angela won't recover anyway.

She'd probably want somebody to pull the
plug.

Just a little air bubble.

You didn't do it. I didn't do it and I
never would. The guy's name's Michael

Sharp. He's the one that took my boys
from me. You wanted kids, you got kids.

Whoever gets Falcon Crest in the will,
stands the best chance of running it

She gave Falcon Crest to me?

If you're Emma Cabot.

I'm Emma St. James. We just got married
last night.

bit left a bit down a bit come on come
on come on come on keep coming keep

coming keep coming what a bit

Come on, come on.

Hey, well done, Cap. Well done, Cap.

Down here, little girl.

Oh, I'm so happy to see you. I could eat
you alive.

I need to hear.

You too. Get over here.

Emma Channing, St. James, Tuscany
Valley, the entire state of California.

I'd like to introduce you to my brother,
Mr. Ian St. James, and his little

flower of a bride, Sydney.

I thought the first order of business
should be to throw the biggest kick in

butt bash this valley has ever seen, St.
James style. I'm going to call it the

Buckus Festival.

Well, I thought it would be a good idea
for us to meet the little people.

Who are the little people?

Well, you know, Great Growers
Association, another winery owner, local

So, um, where did you fly in from?

We were up north.

Is that where you live?

First stop, I want you to meet Emma's
mother.

Here we are, then.

I

still

can't accept this, you know.

In my heart, I know she's here with us.

She's trapped in there.

But she knows we're here and we love
her.

She does, Emma.

I like to think so.

Angela?

I'd like to introduce you to my family.

This is my brother, Ian, and his lovely
wife, Sydney.

Sydney, say hello to Angela.

I don't feel very well.

All right, my angel.

We'll leave in a minute.

Hello there.

See this O -ring here?

It literally supports the entire
machine.

Every unit has one.

Incredible how much money can be made by
pumping oxygen into a lifeless set of

lungs.

Ian's the business brains of the family,
love.

He graduated top of his class, London
School of Economics.

He's going to help us run the business,
aren't you, Ian?

What do you mean he's going to help us
run the business?

You don't make a decision like that
without consulting with me.

Let's not have this discussion here, my
love.

Right, next stop, Falcon Crest.

Come on, my love.

Toodle -oo.

No, it's all right. I know what you
mean.

Yeah.

You're right.

I'll call him later.

You too.

Oh, Maggie.

God bless you.

Not doing too good without you, girl.
The boys are gone. Falcon Crest is gone.

I'm not the man I used to be, kid.

Hello, Jack. How's the family?

This is Mission Control for the finest
winery in Tuscany Valley.

Charlie, do you really want to do this
now? Ian and Sidney must be tired.

So we're a couple of days late. You guys
are going to get paid.

A couple of days late? Lance, you've
been telling me the same thing for the

week. I haven't seen a dime.

I know. I know. We've had some problems.
You know, things are starting to settle

down. I never once had a problem with
Angela. And you won't have a problem

me either.

What is going on?

Nothing I can't handle. Yeah, looks like
it to me.

Where's your beef, Uncle?

I'll tell you what my beef is, pal. I
want to get paid.

I suppose I ought to get used to that
refrain.

You won't get a nickel out of me till
you quiet that shirt down, know what I

mean?

Just a joke.

You're all right.

Tell you what, you come back in the
morning, I'll pay you what you owe, plus

weeks in advance. How's that sound?

Who is this guy?

I don't know.

I'm Emma's husband.

I'm running this circus.

Live with it.

So, manana.

Listen, cowboy.

If you're going to work for me, I think
you'd better learn to handle simple

tasks without calling to me for help,
don't you?

Look, Charlie, as far as I'm concerned,
your brother and his underage wife can

visit any time they want, but they are
not moving in.

No, I don't believe what I'm hearing. I
really don't.

Haven't I completely embraced your
family?

I mean, I visit your mother every day,
sometimes twice a day.

I know you do, Charlie, and it touches
me, but that is not the point.

My brother and I are close, Emma.

Very close.

It's just something you're going to have
to accept.

And I am your wife.

Now we are married.

And that is something that you and your
brother are going to have to accept.

That's something that I embrace.

Now listen to me, little girl.

Your mother left some very big shoes to
fill.

I mean, the woman was a giant, is a
giant.

And we need what she took with her.

The element of genius.

And that's why Brother Ian is here.

To make us strong again, know what I
mean?

Hi.

Hi, honey.

Want some help?

Where's the boys?

I thought you were going to pick them
up.

At school, they said their father picked
them up.

Oh, my God.

No. Why not?

Because maybe their father did pick them
up.

You're here with me. I'm going to be
right downstairs.

And I promise that no one's going to
break us apart again.

We're going to see our mom again.

Mommy's dead.

You know that.

He means Lauren.

Lauren?

Oh, I don't know.

Now you get some sleep.

Right on, Dad.

Not bad.

Good night.

Are you all right?

Yeah.

You want a drink or something?

Listen, Richard.

Have you thought this thing through?

I mean, kidnapping your own kids? It's
not like you.

How do you know what I'm like?

I don't even know.

I know you're losing it. Look at
yourself.

You could end up back in jail.

Never got out of jail.

Well, I'm not sure we want to be
accessories to this.

Look, Frank, these are Angela's
grandchildren.

Now, do you want to help them or not?

It's just for a couple of nights.

All right, but I still don't get it. Why
here?

Everybody knows we're not exactly bosom
buddies.

Exactly. This is the last place anybody
will look. Besides, I sure as hell can't

take him to Falcon Crescent. Have you
been over there lately? Like a high wire

act. No net.

Of course we'll help you, Richard.

Now, just a minute. You and the boys can
stay as long as you want.

You're okay now.

A toast.

Welcome to our house.

Do you think we got enough booze for the
party?

Oh, yeah, we got plenty of booze.

We just don't have enough money to pay
the workers, the truckers, or the

pickers.

Emma.

Emma.

You're a reasonable person.

And this party is a disaster just
waiting to happen.

With all the problems Falcon Crest is
having, especially financial.

It doesn't look good to the people we do
business with to be celebrating

abundance.

Marcus isn't the god of abundance.
Marcus is the god of the grape. And if

not mistaken, we're running a wine
business. I can't handle it.

Emma, there's more strangers in this
house than family.

I can't believe you're letting this
happen to us. Sit down, cowboy.

Save your energy for your perky wife.

What did you say?

Go!

You're out of shape, little brother.

Vanna. Michael, we have to be there in a
half hour.

Be where?

Be where? The fundraiser, Michael.

The Meridian Children's Shelter. We're
on the plan to visit forever.

Why don't you turn that down?

Listen, I can't negotiate a fundraiser
right now. I got too many things

happening. There's nothing happening.
You're lifting weights. You're shut

Oh, come on, honey. It'll be fun.

We can relax. Be with friends. I don't
have time for friends.

Look, all these people wanted was a
check. I sent a check.

Now they want to punish me by having me
sit through four hours of Joe Fabit and

his orchestra?

Any chance you'd want to spend some time
with your wife?

What do you call this?

Honey.

You've got to realize what I'm going
through here.

It's like they cut out all my blood
vessels. I've got nothing inside me.

You were shut down for 30 days.

Let me think of it as a vacation.

Okay, it's a vacation.

Listen, why don't you run along and
function and I'll meet you back at home.

I want us to get to know each other
again.

We're not connected.

That sounds good. We'll connect later
tonight. Say 11.

Have some toast, boys.

What did I do to deserve three handsome
men at my breakfast table?

This is like a dream come true for me.

Playing mom.

You know, afterwards, I think I'm going
to bake you guys some cookies.

Now, what do you like?

Oatmeal or chocolate chip?

Well, maybe I'll make both.

How about you, Richard?

Can I make you anything?

I like chocolate chip. Mm, me too.

I must smell something burning.

Oh, damn.

Oh, I can't believe it.

Oh, damn.

Forgive her this time, okay?

Ah.

You gonna be okay?

Yeah, fine.

You think you could, uh, keep an eye on
the boys while I run over to the house

and pick up a few things for them?

Can I come with you, Dad?

I don't think that's a good idea right
now, Tiger. Oh, no, I'd be happy to

You sure?

Oh, yeah, no problem.

We're gonna have a good time, aren't we,
Kathy?

Oh, my God.

What a mess.

No harm, no foul.

Yeah.

Right, right. No, no harm done.

Who's winning?

Where you been?

I've been calling and calling. You
haven't showed up in the office for two

Look, Jace, something's come up.

I need you to cover for me for a few
days.

Dickie, sweetheart, are you going weird
on me?

We've got two mergers and an acquisition
going. I need you. Jason, I got my boys

back.

Well, that's terrific.

Don't tell me you snatched them. No, I
didn't snatch them, damn it.

Sharp snatched them. I rescued them. Oh,
wait a minute.

That's not... That's against the law.

Yeah, I know.

I'll cover for you. Do what you have to
do.

Thanks, Jase.

Yeah, this is Channing. Is my lawyer in
yet?

I know I called you 20 minutes ago.
Where the hell is he?

Look, I don't... Yeah, sure.

What do you want?

I know you have the children. They are
my children!

Why in the hell didn't you tell me you
were Sharp's sister?

I wanted to... You've been working
together all along. No, that's not true.

Don't tell me it's not true.

I tried to see you yesterday to tell you
that I was Michael's sister. He did

this on his own.

In Michael's mind, it all made sense. He
could hurt you where you were most

vulnerable. And he could fill a void in
my life by giving me two wonderful

children. Well, isn't he terrific? I am
so touched. I can't tell you how touched

I am. Fine, fine. All right, these are
theirs.

All right, this is a book that I bought
that seems to be helping Michael with

his math. We do about a half an hour
each evening.

Kevin's gotten attached to this. I made
it. His name is Bob Dog. And most

importantly, this is ampicillin. Kevin
had an earache.

Three times a day, two more days.

Is it serious?

No, he'll be fine.

The boys are afraid of swimming
because...

You might want to register them for a
water confidence class.

I am sorry, Richard, if I contributed to
your pain.

It was never my intention.

I thought I was creating a loving
environment for two frightened little

who... who very much needed it.

Charlie. This cold fish act is getting a
bit old, isn't it?

You still bugged about my wrestling
match with Lance?

No, I'm bugged because you fired Lance.

The one thing your mother would have
wanted is for Falcon Quest to be strong.

The reason she gave it to you and not to
Lance is because she trusted you and

the decisions you make.

One of which was me.

Now, are you going to back your
decisions or not?

Are you going to believe in me?

Good morning.

Do you sleep well?

Quite.

It's very comfortable here.

Yeah.

I've been thinking.

This is a family business, and in
deference to your wife... Good morning,

We should keep Lance on in some
capacity.

Oh, that's fine with me.

I'll ask the wife.

What do you think, Emma, love?

What?

About Lance.

Oh.

Yes, that's a good idea.

Would you excuse us for a minute, Emma?

Charlie and I have some business matters
to discuss.

Here.

Charlie, do me a favor.

Don't muck this up.

Are

you

all right?

Fine.

Sidney.

Ian and Charlie.

Very close, aren't they?

Sure, they're brothers.

Sidney?

Will you talk to me?

Can you talk to me? About what?

How old are you?

Eighteen.

You know, no one can hear us.

Why won't you talk to me? I am talking
to you.

Well... Why?

Why don't we do something together
sometime, you know?

We could go shopping or maybe to lunch.

I want to be your friend.

Look, Emma, you're a nice person.
Sydney, why don't you come up here with

What the hell are you doing, cowboy?

You didn't take me seriously, did you?
You took me seriously.

I was a jerk.

Come on, man, you can't pack up now.

Watch me.

Look, we need you.

Falcon Crest needs you.

Well, you're man enough to accept an
apology, aren't you? I didn't hear one.

I told you he was a tough customer.

I'm sorry you beat me with an inch of my
lifeline.

I'm just joking. No, seriously.

From the bottom of my heart, I am truly
sorry for my inexcusable behaviour last

night. I keep getting a rush of self
-loathing, humiliation, embarrassment

time I relive the scene. Give me mental
absolution, Lance.

Tell me you forgive me.

You're forgiven.

Great!

Where are you going? You're rehired.
You're my number two man.

Your number two man just resigned.

Hello. Dickie?

Yeah, Jase?

This feels more complicated than we
thought.

The lawyers want a meeting.

Looks like we're going to be in Los
Angeles most of next week to jump

hoops for the shareholders.

Oh, what do they want to do, meet
tonight?

Yeah.

Ten o 'clock in the conference room.

It shouldn't take more than a couple
hours.

Are you sure I can't wait till morning?
I'm here alone with the boys.

We'll drop them off here with Sarah.

They want to close in the morning.

Dick, I hand it myself, but I don't know
the numbers like you do.

I wouldn't ask, but I need you.

All right.

I'll be there.

Why the hell did you give Richard
Channing his kids back?

I thought you had this void in your life
that needed filling.

A lot of people went to a lot of trouble
to get those kids for you. What do you

do?

You hand them back to this dragon on a
silver platter because that's what

Channing is, you know. He's a monster.

Get the hell out of our house, Michael.

Great, now I gotta deal with Mr. Green
Jeans. Just take a hike, sweetheart. I'm

talking to my sister.

You're talking to my wife. Oh, help,
help. Please don't hurt me. Please,

please. No, don't make it worse than it
is. Please.

Listen to me. You get $3 an hour
handyman. Stop it, Michael. This jacket

more than you make in a year.

Stop it.

Leave me alone.

Please, Michael.

I know you meant well.

I know in that mind of yours you thought
you were doing me good by bringing me

those two boys.

But all you've done is bring me more
pain.

That doesn't faze you, does it?

All you think about is yourself.

Not the boys.

Not me.

Not anyone.

Have you ever run a vineyard before, Mr.
St.

James? Actually run a vineyard?

No.

No, I usually don't deal in ventures
this small.

I'm just here as a favor to my brother
Charlie.

Charlie. Keep hearing about Charlie.
When are we going to meet this Charlie?

Soon.

Are we going to be dealing with you or
your brother?

Well, we're one and the same.

Would you excuse me, gentlemen?

Come on.

Give us a smile.

I don't know anybody here.

I feel sick.

I'm going inside.

You don't feel sick?

You're not going inside.

You're going to stay here with me.

Yes, Ian.

That's my little girl.

I'm not going down there.

I can't let them defeat us without a
fight.

I'm not... I'm not giving up.

I just don't want to party with those
idiots.

I've got to figure some things out,
honey.

Lance?

Have you heard the old adage?

Keep your friends close, your enemies
closer.

Emma.

Oh, Frank, hi.

Congratulations, darling.

Thank you. This is my nephew, Chris.
He's going to stay with his dear old

for the summer.

Hi. I'm Chris.

We've heard.

I'm Ian.

And this is my wife, Sydney.

Chris.

And wine countrymen.

Lend me your ears.

Bacchus!

Bacchus! God of the grape.

God of fruitfulness and vegetation.

Wine and ecstasy.

Promoter of civilization and lover of
peace.

Neighbors.

I stand here not merely for your
amusement.

The spirit of Bacchus is here.

with us today in our vineyards.

So, I raise my glass to all of you, my
fellow Romans, in the hope

that through our unity, Bacchus blesses
us with our most fruitful season ever.

Emma, can we talk for a second?

Excuse me.

My dear, your husband just made a very
eloquent speech, but I don't have any

idea what it was about.

What's going on here?

Well, we're having a party. I can see
that.

You know how I feel about you.

But I don't think your fella has a clue
as to what it takes to run a business.

This whole thing, I'm afraid, is getting
out of control.

Hello. Can I see you at the funeral?

Having a good time? Do you want a drink?
No, thanks. Mr. St. James, I don't know

how thoroughly you've perused your
books, but Falcon Crest owes my firm $20

million.

No kidding.

Well, I like those kind of numbers. Now
you're talking Caesar's language.

Caesar's language. Ex nihilo nihil fit.

Out of nothing comes nothing.

Pilar, where is Lance? He's in the
house.

He's not thrilled, Emma.

I

can't

deal with this right now. Please, please
come down. This low -life charmer

waltzes into your life and you're giving
everything away.

Emma, five generations of a family
business.

I'm glad Grandma's not here to see it.

You're wrong.

You're wrong about Charlie. I'm not
wrong.

I don't know whether you're crazy,
blind, or just stupid.

These guys are evil.

Go.

Go. Go.

Go. Go.

Go.

here. Things are really getting out of
hand.

Well, the old barter blokes, they make
some noise.

Give us a kiss.

You weren't expecting all this, were
you?

No.

This is Charlie.

Ah, gentlemen.

You have any good time?

Ridiculous. Talk to you later.

You see, my boys?

Oh, no.

Oh, oh, oh, there.

Thank you.

Oh, my God.

I am glad my mother is not here to see
this.

They told the man I want my money.

People in hell want ice water.

Fine. Any way you want to play it, pal,
we're not moving our trucks till we get

paid.

Ever play rugby?

This

is

our family.

This is our land.

You guys have been working for
Fountaincrest for 12 years now. I've

shortchanged you.

Okay? I'm not going to start now.

You all come to my office right now.
I'll pay you what I owe you plus a

Okay? Come on. It's over.

Let's go.

It's all over. Come on.

Come on, Ed. I'll fight you.

Will you quit or something?

You both like Lauren very much, don't
you? She spends a lot of time with us.

You know, boys, you two

mean everything in the world to me.

You know that.

I love you both very much.

But even though we're together, well...

Daddy's made some mistakes.

I love you, Dad.

Oh, I love you.

Lauren, listen to me. It was never
supposed to turn out this way. I never

for you to get hurt.

I just want you to be happy, and I want
to give you that happiness.

So it won't be the Channing kids. It'll
be some other kids.

Better kids.

Girls, maybe.

I'm going to do it all for you.

Michael, stay out of our lives. I don't
need you to make me happy. It's an

impossibility. You don't have a clue who
I am.

Kids don't replace kids don't replace
kids.

Children aren't units that you can move
around like commodities on the market.

It's insane that I even have to point
that out to you.

I don't even know why I'm trying. If I
sat here for a hundred years, you

wouldn't get it.

I get it a lot more than you think I get
it.

You and Walker don't exactly possess the
secrets of the universe, you know. I

mean, look at how you live.

Yes, look at how we live.

Our house is filled with emotions,
pieces of our lives.

And yours?

Expensive furniture.

Objects.

Michael.

You don't value what makes me happy.

You despise it.

I don't despise it. I just...

Think you can do better.

Michael, don't you dare look down on us.
Don't you dare.

Wait a minute.

Come in.

Is everything okay? Yes.

Oh, I'm so happy to see you.

Kidnapping your own kids is pretty
desperate, Channing.

If it's okay, I would like Michael and
Kevin to stay with you for a while.

They're very fond of you.

And I think it's the best arrangement
for now.

When I get them back, it will be because
the court has given its approval.

That's okay with me.

I'd love to have them here.

But Richard, make sure this is something
you really want because we all need to

get on with our lives.

I know.

I'll be seeing the boys just about every
day.

That's fine with me.

Commodities on the market.

I never thought I'd be thanking you,
Michael, but you're responsible for

and I'll always be grateful.

Sending the boys to Lauren is the best
thing you could have ever done for me.

What have I done?

What am I going to do?

Everything is spinning out of control.

I failed you. You trusted me, and I
failed you. I failed you miserably. What

I going to do? What am I going to do?

Thank you so much, Mother.

Emma, you're in danger.

He's the one who put me here.

Charlie, stop him.

I will. I will find a way. You promise
that you won't let me down?

Mother, I'll get the doctor. I'll be
right back.

Nurse! She was awake!

She was talking to you.

There's no register here of any recent
brain activity.

Is that true?

She spoke to me.

I'm sorry.

She's not conscious. And there's no
indication that she was.

But... It's very easy to become
overwrought seeing someone you love like

I'm not overwrought. If you like, we can
go back to my office and talk.

Maybe I can give you something to help
calm you down.

Oh, no.

That's all right. You know, I'll be
fine.

I guess I just wished so hard for it
that I actually saw it.

I'll be fine, really.

You know, maybe I just need a couple
more...

Made it alone with her.

I won't let you down, Mama.

Next on Falcon Crest.

You're not to talk to Emma anymore.

Who is he? What is going on?

It's just a matter of time before the
family gangs up on us. Please let me

explain. Explain!

Please let me explain. Please, it's not
what you think it is. You need a change

of pace.

Let's liven things up a little. I want
the time.

The moment.

Right down to the millisecond when his
spirit leaves this planet.

You got that?
