- Hi. - Hi. What's the occasion?

Dad's mother's coming in from France today.

Why did Jacqueline ever leave?

I don't know.

But we're gonna find out why she came back.

Jacqueline Perrault is a very wealthy woman.

She could be a tough opponent, Angela.

I stood by for 12 years and watched her wear him down.

That doesn't sound like you.

She was a ruthlessly ambitious woman.

I wonder why Jacqueline has returned to Falcon Crest.

- Jacqueline. - Mother.

- Jacqueline. - Angela.

Hold it. Just a minute.

Just let me get underneath there.

Okay, okay, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

Why did you unplug it?

Just slow down. She's not the Queen of England.

It's worse than that. She's your mother.

Oh, relax.

We live here. We're not gonna be on display.

I have hardly had time to do the kitchen properly.

If she'd given us notice, I could've...

She's a jetsetter.

And jetsetters like to hang loose.

London one day and Paris the next.

And here this afternoon, right.

Take this upstairs, start on the bedrooms.

She's coming to visit us

not to see the conditions we live in.

Chase, please, New York is 3000 miles closer to France

than we are here and she didn't visit us for years, right?

Now we get a call from the South of France

with the news that she's arriving.

Sounds like more than maternal instinct.

It sounds like she is checking up on us.

And I don't intend to fail the inspection.

- I mean it. - You think that's it, Dad?

Why is she coming all the way out here?

I didn't ask her and she didn't volunteer to tell me.

She just asked me not to tell Angela

she was coming, that's all.

Maybe she wanted to surprise her.

I'll bet. I don't think I've ever heard

Angela even mention Jacqueline.

Come to think of it, my mother rarely mentioned Angela either.

Alright, Cole, come on.

Flight information, please.

Hello, this is Chase Gioberti.

G-I-O-B-E-R-T-I.

Employee number: 0129-72055.

Yeah, I'd like the arrival time on a passenger, please.

I need a bunch of iris.

Oh, those mums are nice.

Oh, and also a dozen roses.

And those carnations.

Do you think those will go with the lilies I picked out?

I'm kind of looking for a European touch.

Why don't you try the fleurs des bois?

- Lance, hi. - Hi. What's the occasion?

Dad's mother's coming in from France today.

The Concorde to New York.

Can you imagine?

So I'm getting some flowers for the house.

It could use a little something.

You know what I mean?

Oh, yeah, sure.

You know, I haven't seen her since I was 3, so it's..

It's gonna be like meeting her for the first time.

That's 10.60.

Tell me, how are the long-stemmed

white roses today?

They're lovely but they're $60 per dozen.

Three dozen will be fine.

Wow, it must be love.

I like to think of it as a form of insurance.

Are you sure?

I know, but even computers make mistakes.

Alright, thanks very much.

Maggie?

Cole, get the..

Yeah, okay, up.

- Maggie. - That's it.

Maggie.

Whoa, Chase, honey, would you lift the bed with Cole..

- Her plane lands in 20 minutes. - Twenty minutes?

I thought we had three hours.

I called the AIA passenger information supervisor.

She landed in Washington...

...bumped someone off the wait list for a San Francisco flight.

She didn't even call.

She'll call from the airport.

Tell her I'm on my way. I'll be there.

Gus was coming to help me with those crates.

Tell him I'm sorry.

Alright. Well, well..

Let me get this out of here.

Shoot.

What are you doing here?

Take the vacuum and do your room.

Forget your room, do the guestroom.

I don't think I did that.

She wouldn't be coming unless she had a good reason.

- What's she like? - Thank you very much, Lance.

Jacqueline Perrault?

Well, she was an attractive young woman, I suppose.

She was born in France, American parents..

...and she was educated in England.

A real European, then?

Oh, not necessarily.

She picked up enough of the culture to attract Jason.

But she was always a ruthlessly ambitious woman.

Oh, she sounds threatening.

Only to the weak.

Like Jason?

It was pitiful to watch him with her.

You know, I stood by for 12 years

and watched her wear him down.

Well, that doesn't sound like you..

...standing by for anything.

Well, she was my brother's wife.

What else could I do?

Things have certainly changed around here since then.

That was 30 years ago.

Things are a lot less genteel than they were then..

...and far below her standards.

Then I wonder why Jacqueline has returned to Falcon Crest.

Couldn't the florist arrange those?

I wanted to give them a personal touch.

Show our guest that some of us have a little style.

Well, do you want a Cole Gioberti Fiasco on rye?

Sure. Oh, but hold the onion, okay?

Yeah.

Alright.

Dad will be back in an hour. I'd better hustle.

Is your shower broken?

I just want to keep my bathroom nice and clean for our guest.

If royalty is all it takes to get this place in shape..

...we'll have to have Prince Charles and Lady Di over.

Vickie, would..

I'll get it.

Cole. Oh, you're here.

Hey.

Maggie?

Jacqueline.

Well, welcome. Well, come in. I..

And this is Cole?

- My goodness, how he's grown. - Yes.

Cole, where's that sand..

Victoria?

Oh, call me Jacqueline.

Why can't Chao-Li do it?

Because you're her relative.

And you should take our

affectionate welcome to her personally.

Oh, is that what it is? Affection?

Take it.

I thought you would've had this wall redone...

...if you're really going to live here.

Dad says it gives him a feeling of the past.

It does.

But I've never found the past that fascinating.

How long has it been since you were here?

Well, when Chase was small, we had to leave.

Why?

I went to the airport to meet you but..

- Mother. - Chase.

Oh, look at you.

This is real golden sable?

Oh, I can't wait to see all the European fashions.

Well, I really didn't bring that much.

- I didn't think I'd need... - Of course, you're right.

We never get a chance to get dressed up around here.

I spend most of my time knee-deep

in fertilizer and caked with dirt.

And you seem so ladylike to me.

Well, I am.

I just don't get much of a chance to show it.

I guess I'm kind of stuck here for a while, though.

Well, what do you mean by that?

Being stuck someplace is only a state of mind.

I left my parents' home in France

as soon as I found something better.

Was Jason that something better for you?

Oh, Jason was a wonderful man.

He was a connoisseur of the best things in life.

He spoke all the romance languages

as though they were his own.

And music..

...oh, how he loved music.

It sounds like you were really in love.

Yes.

He was a man worth loving.

Then why did you leave him?

You know...

...you really should visit Paris.

In the spring, the blossoms create their own soft snowfall

and we could go shopping together and to the galleries.

We would have a wonderful time.

Oh, it's just that the dining-room table

is covered with newspapers.

I come down the stairs..

Wait, I've got rollers in my hair.

I've got half my makeup on, half my makeup off.

Cole comes out of the kitchen with salami and cheese dripping

so attractive.

She'd left the airport by the time I got there.

And she's so damned gracious.

You can't stay angry with her. That's what makes me mad.

Vickie seems to get along with her well.

Yes, she does.

- Lance, well, hi. - Hi, Maggie.

- How nice to see you. - Nice to see you.

- Hi, Chase. - What's this?

This is a present from my grandmother.

- Oh, it's lovely. - It's for your mother.

Well.

And who is this handsome young man?

This is Lance Cumson, Angela's grandson.

My mother, Jacqueline Perrault.

Enchant�, madame.

- You must be Julia's son. - Yes.

Oh, how nice.

This is some of Falcon Crest's finest wines.

Chardonnay, Petite Sirah

and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Well, I won't compare those with my Bordeaux.

There's good wines coming out of Falcon Crest.

Well, for California, I'm sure.

But here, wine is a business

and in France, it's an art.

A dinner invitation from Angela isn't that sweet?

From what I could gather..

...she wants to spend more time with Chase

before she sees anyone else.

I think her exact words were, "How sweet."

I see.

But, you know, I got a feeling when I went over there.

What kind of feeling?

Chase has no better idea of why Jacqueline has come back

to Falcon Crest than we do.

Well, that's his problem.

But I'm gonna find out.

How can I help you?

Just stay out of the way.

- Oh, merci, Victoria. - Il ny a pas de quoi!

Cole, pick the plates up from the right side.

Don't you know anything about French service?

No, I don't know anything about French service.

Or German or Italian or Chinese.

Does that mean I lose my citizenship?

It means you don't have style.

- Hey, listen, you little... - Hey, hey, you two.

I thought you were going out.

Be ready in five minutes.

I'll be out in the jeep.

I should call Nicole

and make it some other time.

I should spend time with Jacqueline.

You made an appointment with Nicole, you should keep it.

- But Jacqueline's only gonna... - Honey..

...maybe Jacqueline would like to spend time with your father.

But always with a European flair.

I think that's what attracted Jacqueline

to Jason to begin with.

Why? Jason was born right here.

I know but he was interested in continental things.

How do you think Emma learned all those French songs?

I must say, Jacqueline certainly doesn't look like she's

from around here.

That's enough conversation about that woman.

Grandmother, we didn't mean anything by that.

It's just harmless conversation.

- Is Jacqueline here?

I have so much to tell her

about Uncle Jason and me.

Will you go to your room and get out of that ridiculous outfit?

- Go on. - You didn't have to say that.

Don't tell me what I have to say.

She slammed the door right in my face.

I've never seen her so uptight.

Well, you know, Jacqueline's been living

in France all of these years..

...enjoying the finest things

that life has to offer.

Why would that bother Grandmother?

Well, she's been here, obsessed with Falcon Crest.

Maybe she's finally realizing what she's missed out on.

Why did Jacqueline ever leave?

I don't know.

But we're gonna find out why she came back.

My attorneys went over that will with a fine- toothed comb.

But, dear, there could be the possi...

- Oh, the dinner was delightful. - Thank you.

I haven't had coq au vin like that since...

Well, since the last time I was in the States.

Well, how about some good old American coffee? Yes?

The will was very specific.

Now, if Angela had died first, Father

would have had Falcon Crest as his.

Exactly.

And I doubt if she was about to let that happen.

I have had my suspicions, believe me.

But there's never been any real evidence...

...that Father's death was anything but an accident.

So long as you think so

I guess that's all that matters, isn't it?

It's a shame we don't have more opportunity to work on our game.

I'm involved in something much more challenging than golf.

This was a good opportunity to get some information

and keep it confidential.

I don't know what we found out is all that valuable.

But I had direct contact with my sources in London, Paris..

...Brussels and New York..

...all of whom confirmed that Jacqueline Perrault has

in fact, been married three times..

...since her divorce from Jason in 1951.

Did she have any other children?

None.

When Chase left her in Paris in 1958 to join the Air Force

she moved to Monaco

where she met and married her second husband.

When he died..

...she was left with six oil tankers.

And you know what's happened to the oil business.

Two years later,

she married her next husband..

...a Belgian art dealer.

Well, I don't wanna know about her life and loves,

just give me the bottom line.

- Current assets? - Right.

Real estate, investment funds,

art collections, jewelry, cash accounts..

...and ancillary manufacturing and agriculture

including some prime vineyards just northeast of Paris.

The total comes to nearly 50 million US dollars.

Jacqueline Perrault is a very wealthy woman.

So am I.

But I've earned mine.

She could be a tough opponent, Angela.

Bonjour, Mama.

Good morning.

Honey, wanna get me some butter, please?

- Good morning. - Hi.

- Oh, that smells good. - Thank you.

- Has anybody seen Jacqueline? - She's probably still asleep.

I checked her room. I thought she'd be here.

Helping?

She's probably upstairs, somewhere.

Mother?

Actually, some croissants and espresso

might be better, don't you think?

She must've gone for a walk. I'll go take a look for her.

Jacqueline?

I'm...

I'm Emma.

I'm Emma Channing.

I'm Angela's daughter.

- I've heard all about you. - You have?

Uncle Jason told me about the time he met you

first in Paris.

It must've been so romantic.

It was.

If only I'd seen him before his accident.

Nobody saw him.

He fell.

What?

Jason was killed in his truck, Emma.

Oh, yes.

Jason was killed in his truck..

...too.

Too?

What do you mean?

Emma.

Julia told me you'd come up here, Emma.

I'm, I'm sorry, Mother.

I just wanted to..

Jacqueline.

Angela.

Have you been happy all these years?

Happier than if I'd stayed here at Falcon Crest.

I doubt if you would have been happy here.

After all, we have to fight for what we have.

Oh, you did more than simply fight.

You dominated everything and everyone you ever met.

You live by taking the life of everyone around you.

Just like you tried to do to me.

Well, if you feel that way, why did you come back?

To warn Chase.

To tell him that I left Falcon Crest for good reason..

...and that you constantly undermined his father.

Jason was unfit for the life here.

And you consider your daughter, Emma, fit?

Emma is special.

She has her own ways.

But Jason was weak. He just wasn't a vineyardist.

Is that what drove him off a cliff? His weakness?

When you deserted him, he became a drunk.

He had an accident.

Mother.

I'm coming, Chase.

If you'll excuse me, my son needs me, Angela.

Where's Joe DiMaggio when you need him?

That thing's so gauche anyway.

I'm surprised you wanna eat here at all.

After all, we're only having bacon and eggs

not p�t� and caviar.

Well, we could open some champagne, couldn't we?

Oh, darling, I think that's a rather good idea. Perhaps.

I just went for a little walk.

What were you doing at the cemetery?

Good morning.

Well, a little cheese would help.

Yeah, but I was just about to add some,

as a matter of fact.

Mother, breakfast is almost ready.

Why don't we start with juice? In the dining room.

Maggie could use some help.

It's alright, I'll muddle through. Thank you.

Come on....

Seeing Angela just now, made me certain of one thing.

This is no place for you or your family.

Mother, I know how you feel about this place.

I spent over 12 years here.

And I know what Falcon Crest can do to you.

It took a decent, creative,

loving man..

...and destroyed him.

My father's problems are not mine.

Things were different for him. I am different.

You'll never make it here.

Angela won't let you.

She has nothing to say about it.

Well, she stopped your father.

And she'll stop you the same way if she can.

What's that supposed to mean, "the same way"?

Are you that naive?

Do you really believe that you'll be able

to succeed where your father failed?

Mother, now, you have no love for this place..

...no feeling for the land or what Father was like.

My love is for you.

I appreciate that.

Excuse me.

Chase..

Jacqueline...

...please let him go.

Oh, I didn't mean to upset him.

I know. I know you didn't. You just..

You have to understand that Chase

is very sensitive to his past, to his father.

- And to this place? - Yes, I suppose he is.

This house, this land, it means a great deal to him..

...and you can't expect him to just give it up

because you disapprove.

Well, my approval is not the point.

I'm simply frightened for you here.

Frightened?

But certainly there's nothing..

Well, the vineyards, the history

the whole wine-country lifestyle.

Now, if that's what you're after

you and Chase can come to France.

And I'll give you one of my vineyards.

In the real wine country.

And there you'll have the finest

champagne grapes in the whole world.

And without the struggle.

Jacqueline..

...it's the struggle that my family needs.

Hey, where are you going?

Hey!

But I'm offering you a better life.

Now, if only you and Chase would leave Falcon Crest..

...we could all be a family again.

And I need my son.

I need all of you, Maggie.

I thought I might find you here.

- You left kind of suddenly. - Yeah.

Parents can get to you sometimes, you know?

Oh, yeah, I know.

Dad, after you left, Jacqueline invited us all to France.

She wants to give us a vineyard

and a winery to go with it.

You see that flat area out there?

We could build a terrific winery right...there.

Couple of thousand square feet, oak cooperage, loft storage.

Fortified against attack by Angie?

We could make a down payment on this piece this year.

Plant it next year and be harvesting chardonnays in five.

By that time, we'll have the winery built

right here in the middle of our vineyard.

But we don't have to go through all this.

We can have it all now.

Just sell our place to Angie and move to France.

Think how nice it would be to be with Jacqueline.

You'd have everything you want.

My daughter, I've got everything I want right here.

But this place, it's always falling apart.

You and Mom work 12 hours a day.

Think how fabulous it would be to live in France.

France would be different, wouldn't it?

It sure would.

But it wouldn't be home.

Vickie, we're just beginning to get our roots right here.

Sure.

But as long as we're here,

Angie's gonna keep trying to get us out.

Then this is where we make our stand.

You're obsessed with this place.

Dad, if Jacqueline's got a better offer for us

we ought to take it.

Well, we can't.

Well, I can.

Vickie.

- I don't think so. - What did she look like?

I'll call you later.

I've been staying out of the way.

- Emma was down there.

Emma shouldn't have been there.

Why would you wanna keep her cooped up on a lovely day

like this?

Well, you know how Emma is and someone might misunderstand.

Like Jacqueline.

I thought you were staying out of this.

Well, I don't see why you care what Jacqueline thinks.

The whole time she and Uncle Jason lived here..

...all you ever did was fight like cats and dogs.

Well, we'll just change all of that now.

- Hello? - Hello, Maggie.

This is Angela.

Hi. How are you?

We were hoping that we might get together with Jacqueline

before she leaves.

Well, Angela, I think

Jacqueline's gonna be around a while longer.

We were also hoping that you all would

come over for dinner tonight.

Tonight? Dinner?

Well, that sounds very nice, I just...

Just a second.

Angela, when I came back this morning..

...I found Maggie up to her elbows in the kitchen.

So I'm afraid that you have no choice

but to join us here for the festivities.

Oh, it'll be nice and informal. Just family.

A reunion.

Shall we say, 7?

Oh, and don't forget to bring Emma.

I'd just love to see her again.

Yes, 7 would be fine.

Jacqueline, what's all this about "festivities"?

Don't worry about a thing.

We'll call a caterer in the city and he'll bring it all up.

I see.

I am rather surprised you'd wanna have Angela here at all.

I think we might find it advantageous

to play her game on our court.

You think there's enough sorrel sauce?

Yes, miss.

You're gonna be pouring the wine.

Yes, miss.

The Fum� Blanc with the appetizer

and the chardonnay with the entr�e.

The chardonnay is served with the appetizer..

...and the Fum� Blanc is served with the entr�e.

Since when are you such an expert?

All you made are dried-out hamburgers.

I've never had the help to do things properly.

- Hey, you got any cheese dip? - Cheese dip?

Hardly, sir.

So?

What do you think?

Who are we trying to impress, huh?

The caterers, who else?

This is gonna be an interesting evening.

Did Mother say anything about what she and Angie

talked about in the cemetery?

- Would you stop worrying? - I'm not worrying.

Stop worrying. Angie and your mother are beyond squabbling

I'm sure.

Whatever took place between them happened over 30 years ago, so..

Whatever happened, I have a feeling

it was just the beginning.

What did you do? Oh, it's part of your charm

that you cannot tie your tie.

- You look very nice tonight. - Thank you. So do you.

Where's your mother?

I think she'll be down in a minute.

Would you like some sherry? Calm your nerves?

My nerves don't need calming. I just don't like to be late.

It's rude.

- Well, how do I look? - You look fine.

Thank you. I'm sorry I'm late

but I just wanted to dress properly.

Well, you've made your appearance

so I'll say good night, dear.

Oh, but, Mother, I'm going with you.

Julia said it was okay.

Oh, well, not tonight, honey.

But Vickie invited me. I'm expected.

Emma, I think you'll be more comfortable at home tonight.

Oh, Mother, let her go. It's a family reunion.

I thought I looked very nice.

Why didn't you tell me Vickie called?

I've been staying out of the way.

If I'd known you wanted me to monitor

I might've helped.

Did you have to involve Emma in this?

Oh, Mother, let her go. We'll just be one big happy family.

Oh, really.

How are you doing?

Just a Scotch neat, please.

No, thanks.

- Thanks. - Yes, it's your wine.

That's what I thought.

Well, Julia, I'm glad you could join us.

I was afraid you wouldn't make it.

Oh, I wouldn't miss it for the world.

Julia doesn't like to miss anything.

I see. I think..

- Oh, thank you. - Thank you.

Oh, it's been so long since I've been in this house.

Well, I won't be in it too much longer.

Really? Why?

I'm going to France with Jacqueline.

Oh, Vickie, how exciting.

- Isn't that wonderful, Lance? - Yeah, it's great.

To be living in France.

Good evening.

What a delightful evening it's going to be.

No, thank you.

- It was a lovely dinner. - Thank you.

It beats cooking, doesn't it?

Falcon Crest Sherry makes it an occasion.

Yes.

Well, you've come a long way

since your father's Chiantis, Angela.

Still, there's no comparison to the true chateaux vintages.

We were making good vintages when that winemaker

you were married to was still stomping grapes with his feet.

Well, that's what makes the world go around, doesn't it?

Different tastes.

It's too bad that Uncle Jason isn't here..

...don't you think?

Actually, neither Jason nor Chase belonged here, Angela.

Oh, I agree with you.

But I can't get Chase to accept my standing offer.

It's no secret that I want to replant your acreage.

Yes, I know.

But, ladies, let's not discuss business tonight, alright?

Well, I just wonder

why you want a mere 50 acres..

...when it's already in the family.

I don't think this is the time to start a debate

over family business, do you?

Oh, Mother just likes to dominate everything.

Well, to Jason, whose fate was sealed the day his father died.

You never gave him a chance, did you?

I gave him every chance.

Mother.

Mother.

Ma.. Mother. Mother.

Chase, this has been a long time coming.

Angela..

...I won't let you destroy my son.

I have no interest in destroying anyone.

What about Jason?

He was a man of culture, a man with style.

He could had been a great man.

You would've killed him with your hands..

...before you'd have let him have any part of Falcon Crest.

Did you come all the way to tell me that?

Power, that's all you love.

Love? What do you know about love?

The one time you had it, you turned it away.

That's not what happened and you know it.

I knew what you were up to.

I knew that you were out to take over all of Falcon Crest.

Falcon Crest belongs to those who can control it

and make it live.

It belongs to me because I'm strong enough to produce.

The future here belongs to anyone who has the skill..

...and the raw guts to take it away from me.

Now, Jason could never do that and neither could you.

That's why you ran away.

The only reason I took Chase away was to keep you

from ruining his life.

Now, why would I do that?

You don't understand, do you?

I don't like you, Angela.

I don't like anything about you.

Now, maybe you've got everybody else believing

that Jason got drunk and drove his truck off the road

but I don't accept that.

That's what happened.

Well, Emma seems to think that Jason died more than once.

That's highly improbable.

The only thing I really care about is that

my son doesn't become a victim of some accident himself.

You sound frightened.

- Oh, I am, for my son. - Well, why tell me? Tell Chase.

She has told me. But it didn't do any good.

My mother knows me pretty well.

Whenever she told me I shouldn't do something

I went ahead and did it.

I've made my own mistakes

along with my own successes.

But you don't know her.

She can be treacherous.

- Your father... - I'm not my father.

I've learned a lot about Falcon Crest.

And about Angela's way of doing business.

I think we understand each other.

Do we?

This little adventure you've brought your family on

is nothing more than that.

It's hardly an adventure.

This is our home now.

We're here to stay.

Chase..

...30 years ago, I had no choice.

Everything was different.

I was only trying to protect you.

I know.

You amaze me, Chase.

I thought you were a sensible man.

Intelligent enough to know when to quit.

But you're really quite emotional, aren't you?

I hope so.

Well, I don't recall you taking a drink

this late in the evening before, Mother.

I never felt the need of one before.

Jacqueline really got to her.

She did not.

Emma shouldn't have been there.

The things that Emma said made a lot of sense.

- As a matter of fact... - Lance, you're on thin ice.

I wouldn't take another step, if I were you.

Good night.

Come in.

I knew you'd still be up.

It hardly turned into a late night.

Yeah, things did break up kind of early.

That was some party.

It was a disaster and you know it.

Still, it was kind of interesting to see

Jacqueline go for Angie's throat, huh?

She did no such thing.

She was just forced to stoop to Angie's level.

So when are you going to France?

I don't know yet.

Lance seems to think you've already got your bags packed.

Listen, I think it'll be great for you.

It is my turn. You got to go to Italy.

Get out of here for a couple of years.

Live in style like you want.

It'd be good for you to get the parents off your back.

And they'd probably like to get you out of their hair too.

You really think so?

Vickie, what do you want?

You hate it here.

Nobody likes seeing you put this place down.

Have I really been that obvious?

Subtlety isn't exactly one of your fortes.

Hey, that's one of your French words for you.

Well, I'm gonna go hit the leftovers downstairs.

Cole?

Yeah?

You think there's enough for two?

Are you kidding?

I made sure those caterers left everything.

Come on.

Well, this was certainly some evening, huh?

Now you know why your mother took you away from here.

Yeah, I suppose so.

Chase, please, please don't ignore this.

Your mother is frightened for you.

- Oh, Maggie... - She's very...

Don't you be overreacting too, please.

I am not overreacting.

You heard what your mother told Angie about some accident.

You don't think this could happen to you.

She was talking about my father.

She was talking about you too.

Darling, she came here to warn you because she knows

how dangerous Angela is.

I know that.

I know.

Can you imagine what would happen..

...if we allowed ourselves to be scared off?

Besides, more and more, I'm beginning to think..

...Angela overplayed her hand with my father.

Let's go to sleep.

Oh, honey.

Dad's got your things in the car, we're ready to go.

You still love him, don't you?

After three marriages?

Well, Jason was the first and I guess he'll always be.

Well, now, when I get back to France

I'll make a few phone calls to the better schools

arrange interviews for you

and then before you know it.

Jacqueline..

...I can't go to France with you.

Well, you really are Chase's daughter, Victoria.

He's never been a quitter, neither are you.

You might not like the way things are..

...but I think you'd rather change them than run way.

And besides, France has been there a long time.

And it'll be there..

...when you're ready.

Western Jet Air Lines Flight 733 is now boarding Gate 12.

You know how much I've enjoyed having you here.

- I'm really gonna miss you. - Me too.

We're all gonna miss you.

Well, she's leaving.

Who knows when you'll get a chance to talk to her again.

Mother?

Darling, if there's anything I can do..

...if you need some cash...

No, thanks.

But I can give you anything you want.

Your money is not what I want.

What I want is..

...to say..

...you don't have to leave, you know.

You can stay here with us.

You mean that?

Sure, you can..

We could be a family again.

Oh, thank you.

I've waited so long to hear that.

I've probably waited too long to say it.

We haven't had much of a chance to talk lately.

It's been longer than lately.

Yeah, I know.

I resented you for so long for taking me away.

But you're back now.

And you have a new home.

So forgive me.

- I love you. - Oh, and I love you.

That's really the reason I came here, you know.

To tell you that.

And that I want us to be a family again.

Why haven't we been able to talk like this before

when I was younger?

I don't know.

I suppose we didn't like each other very much.

We never gave each other a chance.

Well, we're gonna have to change that and make more chances

for ourselves.

You're quite a likable lady, you know.

Well, I should be.

I raised you.

AIA Flight 207 to Washington D.C. with connections..

If there's anything I can do, if I can help..

That would mean you'd have to come back to Falcon Crest.

And Angela would still be here.

But so would you and Maggie, my family.

Oh, darling.
