When Jim bought this property, there was a sizable reservoir.

I'll go up and check it out.

Good. That water is vital to Falcon Crest.

She's wandered off again, farther than usual. Why won't you admit there's

something wrong with her? There is nothing wrong with her. Looks like

been a landslide here. We can make it across easy. I'm slow.

If you do tell, I'll just run away again, and next time, nobody will ever

me. Don't move. Don't move.

Drive back to the chief and go for help. They're going!

you want it very warm don't get my hair wet i'm serious i love serious women

what does that mean watch out a snake

Hi, grandmother.

I thought you were supposed to be reading those marketing reports.

Oh, uh, well, I'm halfway through them.

How was the funeral?

You're reminding me more of your father every day.

Now, if you have the time, I'll be in my study.

Do you have to go?

Yeah. Did you have to embarrass me out there?

300 acres of undeveloped land is a rare commodity these days.

I'm going to miss Jim Ruddock. You hated his guts.

Hated his views.

He thought the whole world should be a national park.

Didn't believe in developing in the land.

Well, maybe his heirs would put it to better use.

He has no heirs.

And if you'd been at the funeral tending to business, you'd know that.

All right, I'm sorry.

In a few years, we're going to need an alternative water source.

When Jim bought this property, there was a sizable reservoir.

I'll go up and check it out.

Good.

You know, he didn't maintain it very well, so nobody knows if it still

If it's weekend soon enough.

The bids close on Friday. You leave tomorrow.

With Cole.

Cole? What do I need Cole for?

Well, two young men on a camping trip can't cause too much attention.

And besides, that's wilderness up there.

Grandmother, I can do this by myself.

When are you going to give me some real responsibility?

I just have.

That water is vital to Falcon Crest.

Now, if you can't handle it, I'll find someone who can.

I can handle it.

You seen your grandmother? She's in the study.

What was that all about?

Oh, nothing, nothing.

What do you want?

I've been looking for you. I had to take Emma up to her room. I found her in my

laboratory. She was conducting some kind of an experiment.

Well, I'm sure it wasn't harmful.

This time it wasn't.

But Mother, Uncle Jason has been dead for almost three months and she's still

asking when he's coming for dinner.

Well, she's just a little forgetful.

But she's getting better.

Why won't you admit there's something wrong with her? There is nothing wrong

with her.

Yeah, just a minute. What are you doing in here?

Knitting.

No,

honey, don't. Don't.

Let me drop a stitch.

Come on. Darling, please. I'm in the middle of something. I'm on a roll here.

It's very important. Take a break. Honey, I don't need this. You don't need

this? I don't need this now. Since when do you not need this? You're crushing my

papers. You're crushing my papers.

Please tell me you're not reading.

Darling, wait a minute. Tell me about Emma.

Emma? Yeah.

Seriously, Julia called me a few minutes ago, and we've been talking on and off

because I'm working on this article about mental health. I don't think

crazy. No, no, no, no. Julia thinks that she could use a little psychiatric

help. Chase, she never leaves that house.

Yeah, and Julia did say she was extremely upset over my father's death.

Apparently he and Emma were very close.

Well, I think it's more than that.

Yeah. It's odd.

We haven't seen Emma once since we moved here.

Exactly. There's this place in the valley called the Hayden Clinic. They

handle outpatients. They're very progressive. They have a wonderful

And Julia's asked me to speak to Angela about it.

Why don't you tell Julia about it and let her speak to the Dragon Queen?

She doesn't want to do it by herself.

You're braver than I am.

Stronger. Great, you're both here.

Sorry. Hi.

Hello. You've heard of knocking. It's a lovely old custom.

Hi, come on in.

Lance has to go up into the back country to look at some land.

We'd be packing in on horses and I'd only be gone a couple of days.

We?

Well, Angie asked me to go with him.

Is it okay?

Since when have you and Lance been so chummy?

Since I found out he'll be riding past Rimrock Canyon.

They got some great petroglyphs up there.

Petroglyphs? You don't know what petroglyphs are.

Petroglyphs? Oh, come on. Tell her.

They're carvings, Mom.

They're made from solid rock walls by the Indians.

All right, see?

What do you say?

I don't know. That's awfully rough country up there, isn't it?

Dad, I'll be okay.

Hey, look, if you were so worried, why don't you go with him?

I've got work to do. Oh, I think it would be great.

Come on, all work and no play makes for a very repressed libido.

It does. It's in my article.

Come on, we haven't been out camping since I was nine.

Really, has it been that long?

See? Yeah.

I've got to paint the wood, Ben. I've got to change the oil in the tractor.

Vicki and I can do all of that. Well, we can figure out how to do it. Come on.

You are not indispensable.

Thanks a lot.

Well, Dad?

Sounds good.

Sounds good.

Emma? Oh.

I wish it would rain.

I love to watch the rain on the window, don't you? Yes.

It makes the whole world look so soft and thoughtful.

Strawberries. The gardener brought them in fresh just for you.

Oh.

They're better than last year.

Sweeter.

Try one.

Maybe a little later.

Listen, darling.

Julia told me that she found you in her laboratory this morning.

Now, why were you wandering off?

Beats me.

Sometimes I love my room so much I just can't bear the thought of leaving.

Then, all of a sudden, I just have to get out.

Well, the next time you feel that way, will you tell me? And then one of us

go with you.

Right?

It's so good of you to come. I just know this is right. Don't worry. I just came

over to appreciate the wallpaper.

I can pretend I'm at the art museum in New York.

Is the living room safe? Yes. Go right on in.

Mother is expecting it, but she doesn't know what for.

Great. Yeah.

I'm glad I let you and your mother talk me into this. It's beautiful up here.

We haven't seen anything yet.

Come on, fellas. I got a deadline.

We got nothing but time. Mix a little pleasure in with your business.

My idea of pleasure is a hot tub, a fine wine, and someone a lot prettier than

the two of you.

So let's go, huh?

Hi! What's your name?

Hey, where are you going?

I do not receive visitors.

That's a beautiful song.

It tells about being young and beautiful and in love.

Did you learn it in France?

No.

My uncle taught it to me.

Jason was my grandfather.

He was?

Then we're relatives.

Well, Emma isn't crazy.

No one's implying that she is. We don't want to upset you, Angela. Well, you

have.

Mother, when are you going to realize that there's something wrong with Emma,

that she needs professional help?

I didn't know you'd taken a course in psychology, Julia.

I understand how you feel.

But I spent three days researching this Hayden Clinic, and it completely changed

my ideas.

You know, I think a lot of us just have misconceptions about mental hospitals.

Emma has love.

And security.

Right here with us.

Well, then have someone come here and see her. I mean, we can afford it.

No.

No.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning.

Why would you want to be Elizabeth Barrett Browning?

Because.

Robert Browning.

Stole her away and gave her a whole new life.

I dream of how a man would love me that much.

Um, do you think that people with my kind of symptoms

are always alone?

Emma, you don't have to be so alone.

My mom's downstairs right now telling your mother about a wonderful place

maybe you could be happier, where you could get help.

What kind of place?

Well, it's a clinic, sort of.

They have doctors and therapy and special programs.

My mom says it's really great.

You shouldn't be up here, miss.

Your mother's waiting for you downstairs.

It was nice meeting you, Emma.

I was in my first horse show when I was seven.

I won a blue ribbon for it.

Still have that thing lying around somewhere.

I was so small and the horse was so big, but you know, I did it all by myself.

Can't be easy being Angela's grandson.

That's an understatement.

She sure is a tough lady.

We've heard the stories about her father.

She's got to be just as tough in order to run Falcon Crest and survive.

And she wants you that way?

She's always told me I have to stand alone.

I can't live my life like other people.

I have to be able to make judgments without being influenced by anybody or

anything.

Sounds pretty lonely to me.

Sometimes.

But she's right, you know.

Falcon Crest is a big responsibility.

Lance, you're a different guy when you're not around here.

I've never seen you so relaxed.

Got a long ride tomorrow.

Let's turn in and get some rest.

Thank you.

They're not far up here, are they? Chase, I'm on a business trip. We're

time here.

Hold it. I can go on by ourselves. I'll meet you back here.

No way, Chase.

You guys just go up there and get lost.

That's all I need.

We'll make it a quick look.

Looks like there's been a landslide here.

Maybe we'd better walk him across.

What's the matter, Shave?

Sort of getting tired and old?

We can make it across easy.

Yeah, come on, Dan. Let's go.

How do you think I got to be so ancient?

Go slow.

Take it slow.

Take it slow.

Don't move. Don't move.

What about the horse? Don't worry about the horse. I'll take care of it.

Just don't move.

How is he?

Listen, there's a first aid kit in my blanket roll. Throw that down.

And the canteen and the sleeping bag.

On the rifle, too.

What are we going to do with only one horse?

You know this area pretty well. Isn't there a ranger station nearby?

No, nowhere.

Ride back to the jeep and go for help.

That may take all night, Chase.

Then get going.

Dad, I'm okay.

Just a little dizzy as well. For once, I'm going to pull rank.

Just don't move.

Stay here and keep that leg still.

I'm sorry.

With the engine off, but at normal operating temperature, drain and discard

engine oil by removing the drain plug.

Figure 37.

The drain.

Aha! Now, this must be it. I got it. I got it. I got it.

All right.

Now, uh... Wrench.

Wrench. Wrench? Wrench. You know, the Surgeon General has determined that

tractors can be very dangerous to your health. Believe me, I'd much rather be

writing. But we promised. You promised.

Let's not get hung up on technicalities.

Hey, maybe it's the mailman. I'll go check.

Vicki, I need another wrench. Vicki!

Is Emma here?

No, she isn't. Should she be?

Well, she's wandered off again, farther than usual.

Oh, you don't think maybe she's lost?

You were in Emma's room. What were you doing there?

Nothing. We just talked.

She's very nice.

Well, you must have done something.

Because Chow Lee said she was extremely agitated when you left.

Angela, why don't you come inside? I'll make you a cup of coffee. We'll sit down

and then try to figure out where she might have gone. All right?

I think you've helped quite enough. Thank you.

Charlie?

If I ever volunteer for this again, remind me to have my head extended.

Honey, if you did say something to Emma, talking about it might make you feel

better. We talked about Elizabeth Barrett Browning. Okay, okay.

It's not an accusation.

Angie's a witch. If I were her daughter, I probably would have run away years

ago.

She's a tough lady.

Maybe she has to be to run Falcon Crest.

Yeah, well, she's not tough enough to take the blame for Emma.

She had to come over here and point her finger at me.

I know, but she was upset.

Yeah, well, the more I think about it, so am I.

No matter what I do, I just can't seem to fit in around here.

Honey, come on. Listen, I'm just going to take off. I guess I need to be alone

for a while.

I listened to you and walked him across.

It's my fault.

It's beautiful, Dick. I know.

You having trouble breathing?

Yeah, it's killing me. Yeah, you may have cracked some ribs.

Let's take a look at this leg.

It's broken, isn't it?

Well, let's not take any chances.

I want to look around and see what I can find to make a splint.

Get you off this slope.

But, uh, I'll be back before you know it.

Dad?

Don't go far.

I'm scared.

I'll be right where you can see me.

Easy boy, easy.

Emma, what are you doing here?

My special place.

Uncle Jason built it for me when I was a little girl.

Uncle Jason said he used to keep places like this to keep things cool

and fresh like buttermilk and apples.

He thought it was sad that there weren't places like this anymore.

Emma, does anyone know you're here?

Don't come near me.

Don't touch me, please.

Emma, your family's worried about you.

They think I'm crazy.

They're concerned, that's all.

You told me they wanted to send me away. I don't want to be sent away.

Emma, I didn't mean that the way it sounded.

You don't have to do anything you don't want to.

Well, I don't want to go home.

I want to stay here.

I feel safe here.

Okay.

I'll stay here with you.

Thank you, Charlie.

You didn't have to come all the way up here, Douglas.

What did you expect I'd do when I heard that Emma was missing?

Well, I expected you to stay in San Francisco with your newspapers. That's

your excuse for the last six months for not seeing her.

I didn't realize it had been that long.

What happened to her?

Nothing's happened to her.

She just wanders.

But we'll find her.

Have you notified the proper authorities?

Oh, that won't be necessary.

I have my whole crew of men out looking for her.

If the police approached her, she'd be terrified.

I thought you said she was getting better.

Oh, she is.

Douglas, please, trust me in this.

I'd like to, but I'm not leaving until she's found.

You okay?

Yeah.

How long do you think it'll take Lance to get back?

Son, you know how long it took us to ride in.

Even if he cuts that time in half, it's going to be a long wait.

You can handle it.

Do I have any... any choice?

I know it hurts.

Just try and relax and take slow, easy breaths.

You'll be all right.

We've got to keep going.

Don't give up on me now.

Damn.

Check in there. I'm going to check over here.

They're coming to get me.

I know I can make it.

If someone will just believe in me, please.

Don't let them take me away, please.

I don't know if you're my friend.

Don't tell.

Okay. All right.

You be very quiet, okay?

Hi. Who are you? What were you doing in there?

I'm Vicki Dioberti. I do my homework here.

Hi. Look, we're looking for Emma Channing.

Well, I saw her yesterday up in her room. Is there anything I can do to

Well, if you see her, you bring her back home. They're pretty worried about her

up there.

Sure.

Thanks, Vicki.

Jose, Eddie, let's move south.

Damn it, everything must be damp. I can't get the fire started. I'm sorry.

Dad, it's okay.

It's okay? You're freezing.

Hank, you don't know what you just did for me.

You've got a strange sense of humor. I can't get the fire started. You're

shivering. What's so great about that?

You failed.

My life always thought you could do anything.

There I was.

Always bringing up the rear.

Always screwing up.

That's funny. I never saw you that way at all.

I never thought I could measure up to you.

I'm glad you think I'm someone worth measuring up to.

Please, I need some help.

What happened?

I need to use your phone.

I have a friend that's droughted in Rimrock, Canada, and he's hurt bad.

We don't have a phone here.

You better let me get something for that cut on your head. I've got to get some

help. I can't let you go out again like that.

It's at least ten miles high to the nearest phone.

I'll get something for the cut.

What happened to your friend?

His horse threw him.

Rolled over on top of him.

He's hurt real bad.

I've got to get some help. You can't go back out there.

What's your name anyway?

Lance. Lance Compson.

Well, Lance, my husband, Lloyd, he'll be here in an hour, maybe sooner.

He's got a little shortwave in his truck. We could radio the sheriff's

from here.

Are you sure he'll be back soon?

Positive. Positive?

I've got to lay down.

Oh, your head on your feet.

Just let me rest a few minutes.

Just a little rest.

Don't let me fall asleep.

I can't fall asleep.

A little

rest.

tell you a secret sure but aren't you getting hungry it's way past dinner time

i have a lover his name is turner bates

we used to come here together sometimes

i miss him so much emma you know it's awfully late

why don't i walk you home now

Okay, but if I don't go home, they're going to start looking for both of us.

I'll bring some food back in the morning.

I won't tell anyone you're here.

All right.

But if you do tell, and they make me go home, I'll just run away again.

And next time, nobody will ever find me.

Hold on to me.

I've been worrying about you.

I was out walking, lost track of the time.

We had dinners in the oven.

You feel better?

Not really.

Want to talk?

I'd like to sleep on it, okay?

It's daylight.

How come you got back so late?

Oh, wait. It's not what it looks like. Hey, you got it all wrong, mister.

don't! Hey!

Relax. Where the hell is Lance?

I made it through the night. That's the worst part.

You're going to be all right.

Please.

Lance isn't coming.

He would have been back by now. You go.

I can't go and leave you here alone.

Take it easy.

Take some water.

Take it easy.

Relax.

Relax.

Anything. Help is on its way.

Hi.

Hi. Did you sleep at all last night? Your light was on awfully late.

Sort of.

You ready to paint the wood bin today?

But if you wait till this afternoon, I'll do the whole thing myself.

Vicki, do you know where Emma is?

Because if you do, please tell me.

Honey, I know that you're trying to help her, but she's a woman with so many

problems that you're just not equipped to deal with.

I have to go to the library. I have a paper due.

Something should happen to her.

Are you willing to take on that responsibility?

We'll be back later.

You mean, Sheriff, you gotta get somebody out there in a hurry.

You weren't in such a hurry to leave Jenny Calkins if Lloyd found you there

sunup. I passed out.

I told her to wake me up, but she fell asleep too.

If my cousin dies, Sheriff, who do you think my grandmother's gonna hold

responsible, me or you?

Look, you don't have to go throwing your weight around here. It isn't necessary.

Now, where'd you say your cousin took that fall?

Near Rimrock Canyon, but he's in a ravine. I gotta go with you.

Emma. Emma.

You lied to me. I trust you. You lied. We're going to find it.

Emma, I didn't tell anyone. I didn't lie to you.

Your family's worried.

They're afraid something might have happened to you.

Do you really think so?

Maybe it's time to go home.

But this is my special place.

I feel safe here.

Emma, you can learn to feel safe wherever you are.

You just can't keep living in a make -believe world.

You too.

You're right.

I guess I've been living in the past too.

I just didn't feel I had anybody to talk to.

Now I do.

We'll help each other, Emma.

Okay?

Let's go.

Emma Glantz, where are you? You could have been here five times by now.

Hi, Colt.

I'm going to ease you over onto this. You've got to get out of here.

No, please don't. You've got to. Got to.

Just hang on to me.

Jumper's here. You're on your way home, lad.

Hey, you're going to be all right. I told you, didn't I?

Bye. Oh, I was so worried about you.

We were all worried about you.

Daddy, I'm so glad to see you.

I've missed you so much.

I miss you, too.

Where were you all night?

We were in the spring house.

Vicki kept me company.

She brought me food.

Mother, Vicki's my friend.

She was afraid you were going to send her away.

I guess that was my fault.

But I found Emma.

And she's home.

And that's where you belong, darling.

Home.

Mother, can Vicki come and visit with me sometimes?

Anytime.

Can she, Mother?

Yes, darling.

Now, you must be exhausted.

Let me take you upstairs.

Becky, I really appreciate what you did for Emma.

Thank you.

Mrs. Baker, please come to it.

Mrs. Baker, please come. I told you there'd be no chance.

Maggie?

Chase.

I got him as fast as I could. How is he?

He had a pretty rough night. Probably a severe shock, but he's going to be fine.

Can I see him?

They're putting a cast on his leg now. Let me buy you a cup of coffee while we

wait. All right.

Lance, I want to thank you for all your help.

Oh, it's okay, Maggie.

Yeah, I don't know how we would have made it without you.

I've got to get going.

Are you sleepy, baby?

It's so nice to have a friend to talk to again.

What did you and your little friend talk about?

Lots of things.

Did you, um... Did you talk about Uncle Jason?

You did?

Did you talk about the night Uncle Jason died?
