Original subtitles

I want to be with you.

I know. I knew from the moment we met.

I don't think he's the type of man that you should be seen with.

He's my friend.

He's a womanizer, and he's not to be trusted.

You found something.

I know who your real father is.

Are you trying to seduce me?

Of course.

Julia, you've got to come home. Mother will get you the help you need.

I can't come back to Falcon, Christ. If I do, I'll kill again. I know it.

Missed me, didn't you?

No. Don't get near me. You're dripping wet.

Did you come here to check on your dwindling inheritance?

It's a third more than you'll ever get. Excuse me. Maybe.

But you know something? If long -lost relatives keep showing up, you're just

going to end up with a gardener's shack.

Oh, I'm not too worried.

Our divorce will be settled soon, and then I'll be able to rely on your hefty

alimony payment.

Bye.

You look beautiful this morning.

Thank you.

So do you, Lance. You are so much like your Italian cousin.

Full of spirit.

Shouldn't you be going to work?

That is, if the spirit moves you.

Yes. After I escort my beautiful aunt to her seat.

Oh, I'm sorry. I have other plans.

You told me that all the paperwork will not be ready for a couple of days, so I

thought I'd use the time.

Good morning,

Francesca. How are you?

Why, hello.

What a pleasant surprise, eh?

What's pleasant about it?

Playing tour guide, huh?

With this lovely lady, I'll try anything once.

A presto.

Please.

Looks like Francesca's making herself right at home.

Keep the apple a little straighter, huh?

How's this?

It's perfect.

Come in, Spirits.

Excellent rendering.

Any news?

Francesca Ciberti has set the valley on its ear.

Angela Channing and her attorney are scheming to acquire her land.

I'm sure that Channing would have made one hell of a cartel leader.

I have a few ideas on how I might cultivate a friendship with Francesca

myself.

I might be able to persuade her to sell to me.

Keep me apprised of any further developments.

I will.

We're just as surprised as you are at Francesca's appearance.

I'm not in the habit of sharing my land with just anybody.

You're mighty calm about this for a woman who stands to lose so much. I have

suffered a great deal this year, as you well know.

Finding a sister is a gain, not a loss. I'll have my attorney check this out.

California law does state that a signed code still supersedes all previous

wills. You'll see that it is dated, and I can assure you it is Jasper's

handwriting. I don't know what you expect to find. Forging a will is not

my fortes.

I never said it was your forte.

I'll be in touch.

Oh, and by the way, when you see your attorney, you might remind him that he

owes me a reply to the personal negligence suit that we filed against

The court date is fast approaching.

Don't worry.

You'll get an answer very soon.

Yes?

Send her right in.

Yes, sir.

Hi.

You know, I've been trying to find a way to get in touch with you for days now,

and here you go. You show up right on my doorstep. That's right. Because this

showed up on mine.

Oh. I get pretty tired of seeing you libel my stepfather.

Look, Lorraine, we just print the truth here at my newspaper.

Besides, this is between Richard and me.

It's got nothing to do with you. Yes, it does.

Why? I stick up for people I care about.

How much do you know about your stepfather?

I know he's a man who's made his share of mistakes, and I also know how much he

regrets them.

Well,

uh, look.

Why don't we pick a nice long stroll in the wharf? We'll talk about this, okay?

Are you going to retract that story?

My conscience wouldn't let me.

Then my conscience just won't let me take that role.

The horses are on the track now for the fourth race.

Glad to see everybody's enjoying themselves.

Oh, you should never disturb lovers while they're kissing.

It is bad luck. Oh, not a good thing to have at a racetrack.

We didn't get a chance to talk the other day at the party, but I'd like to

welcome you into our family.

How kind.

I hope I will get all of you straight someday.

Is this your first time at a racetrack?

In America, yes.

There is so much to comprehend.

Your betting procedure, all the different odds.

Well, if I were you, I wouldn't gamble with Richard.

I'd like to go for the big hill.

So do I.

It's almost post -time. We'd better get to our seats.

Bye.

Bye.

Interesting, too, son.

I wonder if he'll fall in love with her.

If she really is the co -owner of Falcon Crest, he will.

Hey,

Terry girl.

You better be careful.

The way you drive.

I'm not the one who has to be careful. You could have killed me. I could have,

but I didn't.

Want to take a ride in my new car?

What's the check of money you cashed to buy that?

None of them. I made a score. I sold it. A huge profit.

Well, that should tide you over for a week or so. Come on, let's cruise.

Hey, Terry girl, don't be like that.

Remember how much fun we used to have cruising through Florida up and down the

coast? That was a long time ago, before you fell in love with cocaine.

But I've always been in love with you.

I mean it.

I want us to be together again.

It's not going to happen, Joel. Forget it. I don't think you have much of a

choice, since we're still married.

Drive carefully.

There are a lot of nuts in the road.

You don't understand.

To get the best odds, you should bet three different horses for win, place,

show. But that's not showing much faith in your favorite horse.

I like number three horse.

I want him to win, place, and show.

Francesca, the number three horse is a 50 to one shot.

You do like to go for the big kill, don't you?

I do what my heart tells me. Must have a big heart. You heard the lady. Number

four. Number three.

Across the board. Oh.

So, this is your own

race track, huh? Yes, all of it.

Should I be very impressed?

If you want to be.

It does have its advantages.

Like privacy.

Oh, really?

Pamela.

Francesca, you remember Pamela Lynch?

Oh, of course.

Nice to see you again.

Likewise.

Did you finish those Henderson contracts?

I needed a break. I thought you might like a little company.

Excuse us a moment.

Going to need those contracts in the morning.

We'd better get back there and get to work on that.

That's it?

No explanation why your lunch was unclear through the afternoon?

No.

Fine.

Sorry about the interruption.

I

think your

friend is not very happy to see us together.

Pamela? She's all right.

She's my assistant.

She works for me.

And that's all.

Would it make a difference?

I've been without a husband for ten years, Richard.

I know about life.

I know you do.

That's what attracted me to you in the first place.

Nothing more?

Of course.

You're beauty for one thing.

And the fact that I will own a large part of Falcon Crest for another.

I'm going to have to keep a sharp eye on you.

Look, they're coming down the stretch.

Come on, number three.

What did I tell you? Number three.

Francesca, I think you are going to be very lucky.

Luck is only knowing when to take the risks.

We're a lot alike, you and I.

I know.

I knew from the moment we met.

Have you heard anything more about Jean -Louis de Berthet?

Yes, as a matter of fact.

Although I don't have all my reports back, he does check out.

Apparently, he is a very well -respected vintner in his home region of the Loire

Valley. But finding the cost of land so prohibitive in France, he's decided to

settle here to ply his trade.

He seems charming enough.

He certainly knows how to throw a good party.

Oh, I have here...

The completed contracts for Francesca's share of Falcon Crest.

Our prices are marked here on the back page.

All we need now is her signature.

Well, I would like to put my relatives back on their feet, but I don't want to

overindulge them. Just drop a zero.

Have you filed the papers for the probate court?

Yes, but there's a large backlog of cases, so it may be a while before we

have Jasper's will reopened.

Maybe not.

I have a few friends in the court system.

Yes, I've noticed.

And they're getting richer by the week.

Lance, hold me.

Come here, baby.

Can I do something warm?

No.

Why do you ask?

You seem so distant.

Sleep. Let off your leg.

Sleep.

You get some sleep.

I'm going to take a bath.

Sure.

Channing, resident.

Lorraine Prescott. I speak to Ernest Lance.

Hold on, sir.

It's Mr. Compton again. Would you care to speak to him?

Tell him that until he agrees to retract that story...

Senator?

Gentlemen, I have a vote on the floor in 15 minutes. Talk fast.

Oh, this won't take very long. I just wanted to drop off these materials.

What are these?

Well, the list of phone calls from Angela Channing to this office is self

-explanatory, I think.

Quite a coincidence, isn't it? I mean, that... All the calls were made around

the same time the FAA report came out condemning my client?

I don't know what FAA report you're talking about.

And I hardly even know Mrs. Channing.

Oh, now she'd be so disappointed to hear you say that, Bunny.

There's a copy of a canceled check from Angela for $125 ,000.

The same amount Buzz Whitehead inherited from a rich aunt on the very same day.

Now, you may not remember that name either, Senator, so let me refresh your

memory. Buzz Whitehead is the airplane mechanic whose testimony damaged my

client the most.

Well, you've gone to an awful lot of trouble for nothing.

I still don't know what you're talking about.

Isn't that funny? That's not what Alan Caldwell at the FAA says.

He told us you twisted a lot of arms to get me condemned.

Well, it sounds to me like Caldwell is trying to cover his tracks again.

I've tried to get the FAA to replace him for years.

Senator, if anyone's trying to cover their tracks, it's you.

As a matter of fact, we've seen your list of political contributors. It's

amazing. You got a nice -sized check from Angela, too.

Well, I admire your fine collection of circumstantial evidence, gentlemen.

But this is all news to me.

Well, I think Congressman Wassman will be an even bigger admirer. He is your

opponent in the upcoming election, isn't he?

You are not going to get away with threatening a United States senator.

Oh, it's no threat. We have an appointment with the congressman this

at 3 o 'clock.

Unless you're willing to discuss this with us right now.

Sit down, gentlemen.

Aren't these beautiful?

They came for Francesca.

Mother,

that is none of your business.

She's my sister, and I have an obligation to protect her as long as

my roof.

Especially from Richard Channing.

Buongiorno. Oh, good morning.

Good morning. We thought you'd been bundled off by a gypsy caravan. Oh, I'm

sorry I missed the dinner last night. But we were having so much fun at the

track. Win anything?

Oh, Richard said I cleaned up.

Well, these are for you, Francesca.

That's very thoughtful.

Yes, he can be most charming when he has an ulterior motive.

But I don't think he's the type of man that you should be seen with.

He's my friend.

He's a womanizer, and he's not to be trusted.

Angela, no man is to be trusted at first.

But I'm nobody's fool.

And I'm old enough to choose my own friends.

Now, don't we have some business to discuss?

Not yet.

Reardon is still working on the papers.

I hope it won't take too long. I want everything to be completed as soon as

possible. And so do I.

Charlie will be so upset if we let his breakfast get cold.

Tell Charlie I'm sorry.

I'm going for a walk.

What have you got there? Nothing.

People don't usually hide nothing.

It's a surprise.

I wanted to save you a bundle at the market and show you what a good

can be.

You're already the best there is, sweetheart.

I'm just gonna work a half a shift. I'll be home early.

Signorina, good morning.

Good morning.

I've been wanting a chance to talk with you.

You know, I think you and I have a lot in common.

I do admire your persistence, Monsieur de Bercy, but you could use a more

approach.

No, no, you misperceive me. I'm talking about land.

I sense in you a passion for the land, a passion I share.

No doubt you are quite a passionate man.

But it is easy to be passionate, I suppose, when your land is as great as

Crest. You're right.

My grandmother used to say, a man who has no pride in his land is not a man.

As you may know, my hobby is sculpting.

I would be quite honored if you would allow me to capture your beauty.

Monsieur de Berski.

Are you trying to seduce me?

Of course.

But I'd like you to pose for me first.

I will think about it.

So what do you think Silverlight's going to do? I don't know. We talked for a

long time. But no politicians.

I couldn't pin him down.

I wish we could publicize what we know.

It'd be nice to give Angela a dose of her own medicine.

Yeah, well, we'll give the senator a couple of days and see what happens.

I'll get it. Thank you.

Yes? Is Mrs. Giaberti in?

Oh, yes.

Thank you. I know there's a kind of sudden, but I couldn't give you this

over the phone.

You found something.

I sure did, Mrs. Giaberti.

I know who your real father is.

Your father's name was Oliver Donovan.

His PT boat was hit by a kamikaze pilot in the battle to retake the Philippines.

His body was never recovered.

There's no doubt that he was my real father.

No.

Your birth certificate was amended and changed.

After you were adopted, that's when the name Hartford was added.

By going back to the hospital where you were born, I found the original

certificate with Oliver Donovan as your father.

How is the mother listed?

Jane Smith.

That's fictitious. Probably used to protect her reputation.

What about Donovan's parents, relatives, neighbors?

Well, I always check with the parents first, but in this case, they're both

deceased.

I'm doing everything possible to find some clue, somebody who remembers.

This is all the information I've collected on your father.

Thank you.

Mrs. Giberti, I know it's no consolation, but Oliver Donovan...

Your father died a hero.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

I'll show you out.

Thank you very much.

I think I look a little like him.

I think so, too.

Finally found him.

It's only to lose him all over again.

It's been a long time since we've had one of our

intimate rendezvous.

I miss them.

I'm here to tell you that

I can't see you anymore.

I see.

You're dissolving our partnership.

No.

I want to keep my interest in the racehorse and we can still be friends.

But I love Cole.

And I won't do anything to jeopardize that relationship.

That's a very noble attitude.

We'll see how long it lasts.

Thank you for your vote of confidence, Mr. Reardon.

Melissa, when I was a boy and I was told there was something I couldn't have, I

doubled my efforts to get it.

never failed.

Well, there's always a first time.

The result appears now on the infield totalizator boards. Number two, Prince

Brian was first. Number five, Rory and Ronnie second. Number three, Emily G

was the first.

Hello? Chase, Herb Boutillier in Washington.

Yes? I'm sorry to disturb your sleep, but I want you to be the first to get

news.

It's Herb Boutillier.

Go ahead.

Well, I just got a call from Ellen Caldwell a couple of minutes ago.

The FAA is issuing a new report this morning, completely absolving you of all

blame in the crash of Windstream 4 Tango Delta.

I don't know what to say, but thanks.

Don't thank me.

We made one heck of a team.

Look, do me one favor, will you, Chase?

Get those wings back on again and fly.

Come on.

What?

It's over.

I've got to go into San Francisco tonight.

I've got to meet some people from the State Racing Commission.

Why didn't you tell me earlier? I could have made a reservation at a cozy little

hotel on Melbourne.

That won't be necessary.

I won't be gone long, probably not even through the night.

I think you better stay here and mind the store.

Oh, my.

Oh.

How are you? Miss Prescott, this package just arrived for you.

Thank you.

Come on.

Oh, wow.

Lance comes in.

I think he's trying to apologize to me for what he wrote about you in the New

Globe. How does he know how you feel about that?

I went over to his office and I demanded that he apologize for the story.

I see.

Now, you listen to me, young lady.

I will deal with Junior in my own way.

And in my own time, I don't need you to run interference for me.

You said you're going to let me live my own life, right?

That means I get to choose my own fight.

Zach, you're going to have to do a lot better than a bunch of balloons.

I want you to watch her night and day.

Lorraine can take care of herself.

You're not going to do it?

I didn't say that.

If you trust somebody, then such tactics aren't necessary.

And if you don't trust them, then what's the point?

Now, this deserves a celebration.

Why don't we have dinner together tonight at Cyrano's?

Your treat? Of course it's my treat.

I'm sorry, but I have other plans.

I have always wanted to see San Francisco.

I'm having dinner there. Are you going on a tour?

I wanted to ask you to come after you are always such a busy woman.

Enjoy the city.

I'm sure I will.

Ciao.

What happened to the Mother Hen approach?

Aren't you worried about her?

Now that she's signed over her third at Falcon Crest, she can take Richard back

to Italy with her, and I hope she does.

Ciao, Lee.

Would you open a bottle of Gioberti champagne for Mr. Reardon and myself?

Yes, Mrs. Channing.

That is a switch.

The last I heard, the Gioberti champagne was going to be used to scrub down the

bathroom. When this agreement is approved in court, the Gioberti

be a collector's item.

Now, that is something to celebrate.

Hi, Melissa. How are you?

Hi, Maggie.

Uh, Cole's not here. Probably at the winery.

I know.

I didn't come over to see Cole.

Do you mind if I come in?

Sure. Sure, come in.

Thank you.

Oh, some research.

I've been doing some research here.

Sit down.

Carl, tell me about your father.

Well, this family isn't very much at keeping secrets.

There's something else bothering you, isn't there?

Frankly, Melissa, I'm worried about my son.

Every time he's become involved with you, he's been hurt.

You married Lance almost out of spite.

You've treated Linda very badly.

You bartered away your own son.

You don't have to go through the entire list.

I know that in the past, I haven't always acted with great responsibility.

But I'm going to work very hard to win you and Chase over.

You don't have to win us over, Melissa.

Just treat Cole with the love and the respect that he deserves.

I know I can do that.

You're dangerous, you are.

I think you are dangerous, too. Me? No.

What makes you say that?

Your eyes.

My eyes.

They say you want love.

But you are afraid of love.

Your mother must have been a gypsy.

Not really.

She was just a woman who loved unwisely.

As I have myself.

Many things. Many times.

I don't see any scars.

You seem very open.

You're not afraid?

Why should I be?

Life is meant to be lived like good wine.

You never leave any in the glass.

I agree.

And tonight, we shall empty the glasses.

To you, Richard?

No, no, no.

To us.

I don't think I have ever met anyone quite like you.

And I must say...

Where have you been?

I took a trip to the ocean.

I was going through some of my dad's things, and he loved the seas so much, I

thought maybe it would be a good idea if I went and spent a little time there.

Sounds terrific. Oh, it was. It was.

Got to say goodbye and hello.

I have been itching to take a trip myself. Why don't you come along?

Sure, where to?

Someplace we haven't been for some time.

What a nice way to wake up.

Why didn't you wake me earlier?

We went to sleep so late.

Amore. Oh, so early.

It is already past noon.

Oh.

Oh.

That means we missed the checkout time.

Oh, well.

That means we'll have to spend another night.

You planned this all along, eh?

Any objections?

Angela warned me about you. Do you know that?

I think it's time somebody warned you about Anne.

Oh, not today. I'm too happy.

I'm still rather thrilled to know that I have a sister.

What about Angela?

Is she thrilled?

Oh, she is hardly of the shock.

I'll bet.

You did drop in rather unexpectedly.

It was a shock to me, too, to find out that I, what can I say, be

legitimate.

that I was not who I thought I was.

I grow up believing that my father was a soldier, killed in a war, a hero.

I cannot help feeling that Jasper Giubetti cheated me out of a part of my

I know how you feel.

I also was born, how you say, illegitimate.

I'm sorry to hear that.

It's all right.

But you have a family, don't you, Bertie? I have a collection of relatives

they can hardly be compared to the family you have in Italy.

But what is family but love?

What is love but working together, helping each other and caring?

I have never seen the love you talk about.

Look a little closer to you.

What? The boss is going to make me assistant manager of the station.

Oh, that's wonderful.

More than wonderful. It means I get another dollar and a half an hour plus

vacation. But I'm going to have to work late tonight, so I'll see you later.

Well, wait a minute.

You were supposed to take me out tonight.

The steakhouse and a movie, remember?

The boss asked me to work late. I couldn't very well say no.

Well, what about me?

If I stay in that tin box one more night, I'm going to go crazy.

I'll make it up to you later, I promise.

Fine.

I'll be back before midnight.

Yeah, great.

That's just great.

I've been worried sick about you. Where are you?

Never mind that. Listen to me.

It's starting again. The voices.

Julia, you've got to come home. Mother will get you the help you need.

Mother? She's the voice I hear.

She's behind it again.

That's not true.

If she knew you were alive, she'd only want you to get better.

Julia, please, you've got to come home.

I can't come back to Falcon Crest. If I do, I'll kill again. I know it.

No, you will not kill again.

Tell me where you are and I'll come and get you. You've got to let us help you.

Who are you talking to, Emma?

Nobody.

You were talking to someone.

I told you, nobody.

Nobody you know.

with Julia Comfort in her life.

Emma Channing is not exactly a reliable source.

She is widely regarded as somewhat of a kook.

It's too bad we didn't put a tap on the Channing phone. I would like to have

traced that call.

If there was anything to trace.

It could be just a sad delusion of a very sick woman.

No, it isn't.

She's alive.

Find her. Bring her to me.

I'm on another report before we make an offer. Yes, ma 'am.

What is that?

Sounds like an airplane.

Is the crop dusting scheduled for today?

Not that I know of.

Hi, there.

Craig!

Come quick.

What's all the commotion?

It's a surprise.

Hurry.

Oh, come on!

Isn't it great? The case is flying again.

I tell you, it's going to be great for the morning edition.

The local vintner goes crazy.

You ready for the coup de grace?

Hey, I've been looking forward to this for a long time.

Hello, Tuscany Tower. This is November 62763.

Could you patch me into Angela Channing at Falcon Crest, please?

That's the thing he's up to.

He's up to his neck in hot water, that's what.

I'm going to call the FAA.

There's a phone call for you, Mrs. Channing. Well, take a message, Shelley.

want that line open. You may be interested to know that the caller is

Gervetti.

Chase?

You have done some stupid things in the past, but nothing criminal.

Now, you're breaking more laws than you can count.

Oh, no, no, no. I just got a call from my lawyer in Washington this morning.

Seems the FAA issued a new report.

My name has been completely cleared.

How'd you swing that?

Oh, I didn't swing anything.

Senator Silverlake did all the swinging.

Now, listen, Chase.

A lot of witnesses saw that condensation. You're not going to get by

Well, I'll tell you what. When Buzz Whitehead runs out of his inheritance

comes back to the States, we'll get this whole thing cleared up once and for

all.

is that Bundy Silverlake's war chest is going to be much poorer when I cancel my

check.

Then Chase really did get his pilot's license back.

Yay, Chase!

There's nothing to cheer about.

I think it's wonderful.

Chase is back where he belongs.

What are you looking so happy about?

Because I'm going to work.

I've got a hell of a story to report.

I think I'll withdraw the personal negligence suit against Chase right

I warned you not to interfere with the FAA. We'll be lucky to get away with

without him putting the suit on us.

Oh, let him have his little victory.

I have the trump card.

When I get Francesca's third, Chase will be exactly where he should be.

Out of the house.
