Take a look at this. You could be doing more harm than good. Come back to the

cartel. I'd rather be dead.

I think we should grant her wish.

Perhaps in time I could learn to trust you again.

Thank you.

All right, Maggie. We're about to administer the rest of the ammunition,

Begin counting backwards from 100 for... 99...

98...

What have you done with Joseph?

Emma came over to take care of him today.

It's times like this when it's good to have family.

Family like this is worth being part of.

What's the time now?

Passing the 90 -minute mark.

She's doing fine, Doc.

Take a look at this.

Nurse, wife.

It's more invasive than we thought.

It could be doing more harm than good.

Look, Parker, it's going to be a long day.

Either start catching those bleeders now or take everybody's lunch order, okay?

Angela.

Chase, how's Maggie?

They seem to be proceeding cautiously.

I wish I had as much confidence in Michael Ransom as you do.

So do I.

Is there anything I can do?

No, nothing.

I don't want to bring up Falcon Crest business at a time like this, but you do

know that our entire labor force was stolen.

No, I have no idea. The foreman said that Lance was responsible, but somehow

think it's Philip. Angela, I really don't give a damn right now.

Chase.

I don't believe it. Maggie is fighting for her life.

Yes, I know.

I'm sorry.

She needs all of our prayers right now.

How many personnel?

150. 150.

Is that enough?

Well, that's less than a hundred to one ratio if you have a full house. Of

course we're going to have a full house. It's opening day at Tuscany Downs.

We're going to draw people from half the state. And the last thing I want are

any security problems.

You won't have any with the group I recruited.

Oh, I'm sorry to interrupt.

All right.

You said you wanted to see these sample programs as soon as they arrived. So I

did. This is Mr. Padgett, Miss Lynch, my efficient assistant.

Miss Lynch?

Hello. Mr. Padgett's going to be handling security for us.

Oh, your resume was most impressive. Everything from the Greenberry is the

Secret Service.

Yes, ma 'am.

These are fine.

Miss Lynch?

Mm -hmm? Where's the trophy?

I thought it was supposed to be back by now.

We still have three weeks. I know that, but until I have to give it away to the

winner of the Falcon Crest Steaks, that has a certain ring to it, doesn't it? I

want that trophy back in my office.

You can't have a trophy like that repaired overnight.

It's not some five -and -diamond memento, you know. I'm fully aware of

value. That's why I handled it with such care.

In spite of her apparent grace, Miss Lynch can be quite clumsy at times.

I'll speak to the silversmith this afternoon.

You bet.

Padgett, one last question.

If you had an inanimate object that looked harmless enough but you suspect

be dangerous,

What would you do?

Well, the first thing I'd do is have it x -rayed.

One more section, please.

Don't you think you should take an interior approach?

I'm more interested in preserving the surrounding tissue, Doctor.

Not in textbook perfect procedure.

I'm only suggesting that... I don't need any second -guessing, Doctor. I need

help with these retractors, please.

All right, now, just hold it right there.

Now, hold it right there.

Scissors.

One more section, please.

Sure you don't want to... Sorry.

Didn't mean to frighten you.

No, you didn't. It's just... Your hands are cold.

Look, why don't you come in with me, and after I order all the tractor parts, we

can go to the matinee at the movie house.

Oh, that's so sweet.

But you know what I'd really like to do?

Stay here and pick something special for dinner.

Okay.

All you do is stay up here and take care of me. You're always cooking and

cleaning.

It's just that I don't like to be around a lot of people.

Me included?

No, of course not.

As long as I've got you, I don't need anyone else.

You go ahead.

The sooner you get into town, the sooner you'll be back home.

Okay.

I'll be back before dark.

You drive carefully.

Lucas.

I forgot my list.

Five hours.

We'll stay here another five hours if that's what it takes.

I'm not removing this tumor until I've traced every fiber, Doctor.

Can't you last that long?

She's doing just fine, Doctor.

Stop worrying.

Maybe you picked the wrong patient for heroics.

The only heroics belong to the lady on this table, Doctor.

You know, maybe you'd be better off for all of us if... you just got the hell

out of here.

Doctor? Doctor Parker?

How's Maggie?

Your wife is still in surgery, Mr. Giverty. But the tumor is out by now,

it? I'm afraid not.

I'm sorry.

Realize that Parker may well have been right, don't you?

That's not true.

Six hours ago, anybody in their right mind would have said close her up.

Well, that was six hours ago.

Look where we are now.

Standing on the edge of a cliff, ready to jump into space.

Trying to resect the most frustrating tumor I've ever seen in my life.

I know what you're... thinking?

I don't know what to think anymore, Kay.

Well, I wasn't running out on you.

Well, you sure weren't going to a quilting bee, now, were you?

No, I wasn't.

Well, you sure must want to get away from this place badly if you take off on

foot. Town is 20 miles from here.

There's some things I have to take care of.

With a gun?

That was for self -protection. You said yourself that I wouldn't be safe alone

out there.

Then why go alone?

Why not let me help you? Why are you sneaking out on me?

I thought it would be easier this way.

It wouldn't hurt either of us as much.

It's J .C., isn't it? No, no!

I have a grandson who needs me.

You told me you didn't have any family, Kay.

I guess that was wishful thinking.

Probably the reason I left to begin with.

My mother even made me give up my own son.

You told me your mother was dead.

She is.

My mother is dead.

I guess that was pretty foolish of me, trying to run out on you like that,

wasn't it? I mean, you're the only person that's been decent to me in a

long time.

I'm just trying to help.

That's all.

You really want to help me?

I'd do anything for you.

Hold me.

Go with the fermenting tanks. I want to make sure they're ready for tonight's

rocking, okay?

Looks like you got the troops marching double time today.

These guys are the best. Yes, they are.

Falcon Crest always had prime talent.

That's what worries me, Philip.

Everything's going swimming.

Particularly now that we've got the best winery men in the valley with us.

You don't think my grandmother's just going to sit back and let you hire away

her best crew, do you?

Lance,

if you never learn anything else from me, learn this.

When you have power, use it.

Don't underestimate my grandmother.

Falcon Crest is coming apart at the seams.

Stick with me and you just might find yourself in the catbird seat.

Angela might not be as strong as she once was, Philip, but she'll never let

of her legacy.

Just keep your eyes open.

It won't be long before she welcomes it.

To make a believer out of you.

Mr. Grasser, how do you do? Come on in. Have a seat.

Can I get you anything?

No, thank you.

I won't take up very much of your time, Mr. Channing. Oh, it's all right.

Listen, when I heard that Chase had dropped by your office to have some

documents notarized regarding Jacqueline Perrault's estate for delivery to me, I

must say that it took all the restraint I could muster to keep from calling you

myself.

Mr. Giverty did stop at my office to review the estate documents held in

at the bank.

Don't you worry about a thing. I'll be sure and keep a couple of million on

deposit with you.

That'll be a feather in your cap, eh, with your board of directors?

I'm afraid that all of the funds, the entire $50 million, have already been

dispersed.

That's impossible. I haven't even authorized a transfer of my share yet.

But Mr. Giaberti has.

The entire $50 million, under the terms of your mother's will, have been handed

over to the Sisters of Hope at St. Martha's in Paris.

That's the only document that Mr. Giaberti signed in my office.

Sisters of Hope.

Mr. Schiberti said that this would help determine the basis for his decision.

That you would understand. What?

What is this?

He said that it would tell the full story of your mother. That it would

illuminate her character once and for all.

Stop this connection.

This all happened 40 years ago. I don't give a damn about any of that.

That's ancient history. I want that 25 million. Do you understand?

I'm sorry. Don't be sorry. That money is mine. I need that money. I'm very

sorry, Mr. Channing.

Hey, you tell Chase this won't stop me.

Nothing will stop me.

Wasn't that the man from the bank about your inheritance?

Yes. There is no inheritance.

My dear brother gave the money to some nuns.

Maybe he thinks they're going to make him a cardinal, maybe even pope.

Without their money to repay the construction... Without that money, I

racetrack and everything associated with it. I want you to call Shepperton Bar.

Now. But they're a brokerage firm.

If you sell shares in the Tuscany Downs, you'll lose the control you fought so

hard to retain. You have such beautiful eyes.

You know that? It's a shame they can't see beyond the obvious.

I simply don't understand.

You don't have to. All you have to do is make sure that trophy gets back here on

time for opening day.

There it is.

Totally isolated, just waiting to be.

Don't waste any time. The vital signs are deteriorating.

Hang in there, Maggie.

Give up on me now, pickups.

And it is the original piece?

Yes, sir.

It has to be.

Chenning is too astute for a replica.

The welds are undetectable.

Thank you, sir. We do our best.

But this really is the key to it all.

A solid -state transmitter with a range of nearly 200 yards.

On the perimeter of impact, I trust?

Of course.

A five -digit code activates the detonator.

And the device itself?

High -density plastic.

64 ounces.

Light enough to avoid detection, but powerful enough to cut down anything or

anyone within a 20 -yard radius.

And Richard Channing's death has only earmarks of another attack by unknown

terrorists. What is the five -digit code?

A mathematically random sequence.

Random or not, I shall never forget it.

I got it all.

I'm free.

She's in beta.

Oh, no.

The tumor's out.

I can't get a blood pressure.

We're losing her, Michael.

Credit card.

Charge the pallet for 200 watts a second.

I've got to get a pulse.

Unit charge?

It's ready.

Stand by.

No tune.

Push 100 milligrams lidocaine.

Recharge the unit.

It's ready.

You're back.

We've got a pulse.

Good. Blood pressure?

60 over zip, but it's there.

Don't give up on me now, Mike. Don't give up on me now.

All steady at one pin.

I want EKG, gases, lights, cardiology, consults.

She's going to make it, Michael.

Don't give up, Mike.

He told me I'd find you here.

We must talk, Angela.

I'm extremely angry with you.

You just lit three candles.

One was for Julia, wasn't it?

Yes.

And the other two?

Maggie. She's in surgery.

The third candle was for Falcon Crest, wasn't it?

Falcon Crest could benefit from some divine intervention.

Don't you agree?

Falcon Crest can be all yours again.

And it will be.

Stronger than ever.

And it will be all mine.

I really should thank you, Philip.

For what?

For reminding me of something I'd forgotten.

Never trust another human being.

Would you believe that everything I've done has been an act of love for you?

You bought the Agretti Harvest, and you used that to get your own winery. Then

you lured my grandson to work for you, and you call that an act of love?

Absolutely.

To prove to you that I'm capable of taking my place beside you at Falcon

as an equal partner.

And the next thing you say is that you weren't seen all over San Francisco with

that 20 -year -old tart.

That was to make you jealous.

And it worked.

I saw that look on your face when you walked away with Carter St. John.

Carter is devoted to me.

He has some very fine qualities.

He'd make a perfect lapdog.

Stop playing games.

You did that just to try and infuriate me. You feel nothing for him. You and I

both know it.

But you also know in your heart...

deep in your heart that you need me and you need the love I feel

for you.

I cared about you once for that fateful day at the Tate Hotel.

You can't hide behind that preposterous lie of Jacqueline's forever.

If you believed that lie, you'd never have kept that coupling to yourself for

long as you did. Oh, I threw that away months ago.

You didn't tell me.

I never tell you every time I close a book.

Why can't you tell me that you care for me?

Every time I've ever cared for anyone, I've lived to regret it.

Of course, everyone needs love.

And I do, too.

That's all I've ever wanted to hear you say, Angela.

But, Philip, I don't trust you.

Then let me prove my love to you.

Perhaps in time I could learn to trust you again.

And love.

And love.

We got the tumor out. That was our objective.

She's still unconscious.

When will she come out of it?

I don't know. It's hard to say.

You mean she may never regain consciousness?

What kind of operation is that, Michael?

Where success leaves the patient in a coma.

Cole, let's just be grateful she's alive, all right?

What if she doesn't come out of it?

Look, Chase, I think the best thing is for you to go home and get some rest.

I'll stay here a while in case you need me.

Quaint spot for a rendezvous, don't you think?

Oh, so you've brought the trophy.

Just like new.

Better than new, actually.

I suppose you've wired it with another of your high -tech bugging devices.

How very perceptive.

We simply want to be certain that we can continue to keep tabs on Richard.

I've done enough of your bidding.

I shall simply tell Richard that the trophy is beyond repair.

All you have to do is deliver it to him.

Get yourself another lackey.

Miss Lynch.

Pamela.

Do you realize how helpful I could be?

Come back to the cartel.

We could take a week in Mallorca together.

You could use a friend like me.

A close friend.

Are you suggesting an intimate relationship with someone?

You are perceptive.

I'd rather be dead.

I

think

we should grant her wish.

Anything my mother's worse than she was before.

Oh, she would have died without that surgery.

What happens if she doesn't come out of the coma?

Is that any different?

Hi.

I came by to see how Maggie's doing.

Where's Joseph?

Oh, Melissa stopped by and offered to take care of him. Melissa, you were

care of him, Emma. Cole, I'm sure he's okay.

Maggie, can you hear me? Mr. Giberti, please.

Where's she going?

Intensive care.

What about the coma?

Look, you have to talk to Dr.

Rand.

Don't leave me.

Just... Don't leave me.

She gives sugar to the ponies.

Her father gives them hay and oats.

Where's Melissa Chalmy? In the living room.

Just what do you think you're doing?

Cole, you're going to upset him.

Come on, son.

It's time to go home.

I am home.

No, you're not.

Home is with us.

You're just going to confuse him, Cole.

What do you expect dragging him over here like this?

I simply stopped by your home thinking that Emma might appreciate some help.

I wanted to see your mother, Cole.

But I didn't know you were going to bring him here.

I certainly didn't see any reason to stay in that little bungalow when I

just as easily take care of him here.

I didn't mean to upset you.

It's just that he's all I have.

Is she all right?

Everything is fine, Mr. Gioberti.

She just requires monitoring.

But, I mean, she's breathing all right. Yes.

We want to keep her on oxygen, and her fluid balance is critical.

Excuse me, but right now we're changing nursing shifts. Of course.

Yes.

There's not much more you can do here tonight.

No, I can be here.

Why don't you come home and have dinner with us?

No, I think I'd better stay.

Well, Maggie wouldn't want a vigil.

She'd want you to be strong, ready to help her.

Yeah.

All right.

Tell me the truth, Michael.

You can count on that.

Will Maggie ever walk out of here?

At this point, it's impossible to tell.

There's no answer.

That's all we've got.

There's nothing else we can do.

I've got the latest results from accounting on the cost overruns.

What's this?

This

is

a thing of joy and beauty forever.

The silversmith said he was going to call me when it was ready.

It doesn't matter as long as it's here.

That's the only thing that counts.

Looks as good as new, hmm?

Hey, he does fine work.

Huh.

There's a shipping receipt.

Better file that away. Oh, and I'm going to leave these with you. All right?

But not so fast, Miss Lynch.

What?

I have something that might be of interest to you.

What is it?

60 carats.

I... I don't know what to say. You don't have to say anything.

On second thought, yes, you do.

You have to say that you will have dinner with me tonight at my place.

Of course, but... Well, with a man with such pressing financial commitments,

isn't this a little extravagant?

Nothing is more extravagant than my feelings for you.

It's beautiful.

Yes, it is.

That's why I bought it for you.

We'll leave together.

I've got some work to do first, though.

Richard Channing, I have something that I would like for you to check over right

away.

Good morning.

Okay,

what's going on? Well... Her respiration and blood pressure are good. We've

taken off everything but fluids.

Good.

That's a good sign, isn't it? We're not out of the woods yet, Chase.

Unless she regains consciousness soon, we can't hope for anything more than we

have now.

In other words, the coma could be

permanent.

Here, let me help you with that.

I've imposed on you too much already.

I'd hardly call helping Michael save my sister's life an imposition.

Nevertheless, my being here, you weren't exactly thrilled with that idea, were

you?

Well, to tell you the truth, when Michael told me about an associate of

the past, I was hoping for somebody a little less attractive.

My friendship with Michael is just that, a friendship.

I want you to know that.

That's not true.

I've seen Michael's eyes when he talks about you.

The love you two shared, it's still there.

But doesn't that bother you?

If you'd been around here a couple months ago, I would have cut you into

with a razor -sharp tongue.

Oh, really?

I wonder if I'd have been up to that challenge.

You faced a bigger challenge in my eyes.

You kept Maggie alive.

That and the fact that Michael regards you so highly.

Earns my respect.

You have my respect, too.

After all, you're the woman who finally tied him down.

This is a different time in his life.

And you're young and beautiful.

Temporary assets.

I hope to trade in some day for your kindness and wisdom.

And maybe just a touch of your class.

You've taught me a lot about being a woman.

Me? Heck, I'm just a kid myself.

Thank you for everything.

Come on, we're gonna be late for the airport.

Richard Channing. Oh, Richard.

I must talk to you.

Well, hello.

Isn't that what we're doing?

No, no. About the trophy.

What about it? It's beautiful.

No, not its appearance.

I don't trust these fans anymore. Can we meet someplace?

I'm on my way to the racetrack.

I'll meet you there.

All right.

Richard?

Yes?

You be careful.

Now, don't you worry.

I'm more careful than you might think.

Ray? Where is everybody?

I wish I knew, Mr. Thompson.

There's only so much I can do alone.

Yeah, I know. It just seems a little strange that the whole crew is over an

late. The whole crew isn't late.

Oh, really?

And what would you know about it?

Plenty.

Your crew is working back at Falcon Craft. No way. Philip signed a contract

them. They can't work for anybody else.

How interesting.

I wonder if Philip and Angela...

Toasting each other over sherry last night changed any of that. Wait a

Hold on a second.

They were together last night?

If you'd come home at a decent hour instead of chasing every bimbo in this

valley, you'd know some of these things.

Lissa, please.

I've been here every night trying to put some kind of order in this place.

Of course you have.

And I'll believe that.

If you'll believe that Angela and Philip spent the entire evening playing bridge

instead of sealing their reunion at Falcon Crest without you.

I don't believe it.

Because Philip and I were partners.

When I joined this family, there was true power at Falcon Crest.

Even you had some promise, Lance.

But look at you now.

Lost, running, with nowhere else to hide.

Well, you really don't know me very well, Melissa. Because if you did, you'd

know that as difficult as Angela makes things for me now, it's only going to

make me...

tougher in the end.

killed me.

In time, Miss Lynch.

In time.

See me change. I don't know why you moved her out of intensive care.

Because she's more than holding her own right now.

Oh, I see.

Just get her out of the way so it's quiet while she fades away.

Neither one of us are ready to see her fade away, are we, Cus?

Of course not, but... There's been nothing. Not even a move.

I remember a time when we weren't so sure you were going to make it either,

remember?

Love you, Maggie.

I love you, too.

They just told me those skid marks go back up the road for a good half mile.

It was no accident.

Sure doesn't look that way. Just be thankful she wasn't in there when it

Yeah, I am.

The highway patrol put out an all -points bulletin, but so far there's no

of her.

It looks like Miss Lynch just disappeared.

No, she didn't disappear.

They've got her.
