I'm going to have this whole transaction
declared illegal in court.

Now come on out!

Chase! Your time has come, Chase
Giverty.

I can fix it so that Joel McCarthy will
no longer be able to blackmail you.

I can supply you with documents that
will prove your divorce was final.

Mike Harris is out in the studio.

I think he brought Maggie's mother with
him.

Chaos!

Goodbye.

Arrivederci.

Well, well, well.

What a nice -looking group we have here.

I shall always remember this family
portrait and cherish it. I'm going

to have this whole transaction declared
illegal in court.

Now, Angela.

Your own attorney proved that Francesca
was entitled to one -third of Falcon

Crisp. Three owners will never work.
It's barely survived with two.

I disagree.

Two against one?

Think how democratic it'll be. All sorts
of interesting compromises.

Strange bedfellows. It isn't likely.

Ciao, everyone.

Oh, shut up.

I got to thinking how great it was for
us the first time. Remember?

For both of us. Why can't we do it
again?

Look at you.

This is why.

Look, I can kick it. I know I can.

Help me.

No one can help you but yourself, Joel.

God.

You were such a sweet guy before you got
the strong animal and that lousy stuff.

I really loved you then.

Babe, I love you now.

I need you now.

I don't believe you anymore.

I did once and you made a fool out of
me.

Give me a chance to prove myself.

I gotta have something to eat.

Some coffee, something, anything. Terry,
please.

Okay.

Don't try anything fun.

Joel?

Well, we have got to get to the bottom
of this.

I'm sorry, Angela. I can't abrogate
Francesca's claim or her sale to

think the problem is that you're too
good at your job.

You're really enjoying this, aren't you?
Not really. But since you cut me out of

the will, I find it very difficult to
get worked up over this whole thing.

You'll survive.

You bet I will.

And don't you ever forget it.

You know something? Richard just made
jazz up this place a little bit. He did

hell of a job with the New Globe.

And don't you forget that.

I wish I liked that boy more.

They say he takes after me.

Angela, something very important has
come up. I've heard through certain

of mine... You mean informants.

It has been brought to my attention that
Chase has given the U .S. Attorney's

Office all the information he has on you
and the FAA investigation.

Well, that sounds like something Chase
would do.

Yeah, but I warned you.

And it may just be that they have enough
evidence to warrant prosecution.

Well, that does it.

Get that Detective Mike Harris on the
phone for me.

What do you want him for?

Well, he's the one that can find
Maggie's real mother.

And it'll be such a nice surprise for
her and Chase.

Enjoying yourself, Spurs?

I've been observing our patient.

She now believes that Angela Channing is
having her held in this hospital for

treatment. Well, how did it go with
Francesca Giuberti? Surely she could not

turn down 31 men.

That woman had a stupid choice.

Richard Channing, I love her. One should
never trust an Italian if Amore is

involved.

Richard Channing must have had to borrow
money to make such a deal.

Perhaps the note for his loan could be
purchased.

I'm already negotiating the deal. Ah,
here we are.

How are you today?

I'm better, I think.

Medicine makes my mouth so dry.

I'm so sleepy all the time.

Well, it'll calm you down as we prepare
for the operation.

What operation?

Well, your mother agrees that a frontal
lobotomy could relieve the pressure on

your brain.

Bring back your sanity.

That's criminal.

They don't even do that kind of
operation anymore.

Well, some of us still believe in them
very strongly.

Please take very good care of Mrs.
Thompson, Miss Rogers.

I'll let you know when we're scheduled
for surgery. Yes, Doctor.

Wait!

I think she will welcome our
intervention and then willingly do

I didn't know that being your head of
security would mean doing private eye

as well.

Miss Valley needs a good woman private
eye.

Besides, you have plenty of help. As
long as Chase keeps blaming the current

crime wave on my racetrack, I've got to
find out what's really causing it. What

did you find out about Terry Ransom?

Well, with the lady in question, that
would be like spending a split week in

Sodom and Gomorrah. Oh, give me all the
juicy details.

Well, according to my source, she was a
very high -priced call girl, back east

and on the continent.

Well, I always admire professionals.

Yes, I thought that might interest you.

Come on, come on.

Before that, she lived in Florida.

At a young age, she married a mechanic
who races stock cars.

The guy at Angela's party.

That's right.

Anyway, he was very interested in
cocaine.

He used it and pushed it.

She split from him, filed for divorce,
and ran off to New York for a bigger and

better life.

Good for her.

At least she got out of the marriage.

Oh, well, she didn't.

Divorce never became final.

And a few weeks ago, he arrived here in
the Tuscany Valley.

You think he's blackmailing her?

Probably. She has been writing some very
large checks recently.

And you see, she wouldn't be eligible to
inherit Dr. Ransom's estate if she's

still married to McCarthy.

I want you to get her unmarried.

Change the records. I don't care what it
costs. And I want to see the proof.

Francesca's barely out of town and
you're already setting up the next one.

Terry has some highly productive
vineyards that will fit very nicely into

plans for Falcon Crest.

I see now.

Pamela, one thing you should know about
me after all these years.

I always keep the door open.

I'll keep the job.

The pay's good, even if the company
isn't.

Come on in, Delaney.

Listen, I wanted to talk to you about
this travel thing.

You're not Delaney.

Although I have to admit, you're a hell
of a lot prettier.

We are having a catered divorce.

Oh, my God. We have champagne, a pie,
and a caterer.

It's final, huh?

Congratulations.

Congratulations. I can't believe this.

To think that this day would ever come.

Thank you.

Thank you for all the pleasure.

Fortunately, we learned to forget about
the pain. We'll forget about it.

Okay.

To the agony and the ecstasy.

We're crazy.

I figured since it's a wedding cake.

Why not a divorce pie? Like this nice,
creamy one.

I won't if you won't. Please.

No. Be fine.

Hey, Chase.

Chase?

Hey, buddy, we're cooking.

All right, knock it off. This isn't
funny anymore.

Now come on out.

Chase!

Your time has come, Chase Giberti.

Now hear this, Chase.

I know you.

Who the hell?

Ah, we forget so soon, don't we?

Now, hear this, Blue Eagle.

Warm up the chopper. We have an ETD of
0400.

I don't believe it. Good Lord.

Jay Benson landing.

You're slowing down, Chase.

What is all this? Can't you just call
like normal people?

Oh, you'd be surprised how many phones
are bugged these days. Oh, come on.

Have you checked yours lately? Of course
not.

Maybe I shouldn't ask this. Are you the
CIA?

Oh, you're right. You shouldn't ask.

Or is it the FBI or military
intelligence or one or the other?

No, exactly.

I'll be damned.

I guess I got hooked on the job at NAMM.

Speaking of that, I never got a chance
to thank you for saving my life over

there. I was in pretty bad shape after
that ambush.

Oh, you can buy me a drink.

Got any wine?

Well, maybe we can dig some up.

Were you attending Richard's summit
meeting?

Oh, I loathe going to the turf club.

But I must say, I'm anxious to hear what
crazy ideas Richard will come up with.

How did you know about that?

Oh, I have my sources.

Well, there's a leak around here
someplace because Chase knows too much

activities.

No. No, no, no. He's too professional.

Mother, why are you staring at me like
that?

Why are you so nervous?

You got to believe me, Chase. There's
some strange things going on in the

Tuscany Valley.

Oh, Ben, don't give me your old paranoid
line about the communists moving in.

Don't try to make jokes.

Look, I volunteered for this mission
when I heard you were involved.

I'm involved?

You may have heard about the cartel that
your half -brother Richard got himself

mixed up with.

What do you know about that?

Your late mother was also involved.

She and one Johann Riebman organized the
cartel.

I traced him to Argentina, but he
disappeared. I lost him.

And you think he's here in the Tuscany
Valley?

Well, your mother was here, and Richard
Channing still is.

Then I read your testimony about the
plane crash.

So it could have been sabotage.

The evidence you gave the U .S. attorney
is pretty damning to Angela Channing.

And Richard has made a few funny moves
himself.

Chase, I need your help.

To do what?

Well, show me around. Introduce me to
some people.

Maybe you can go on a couple missions
with me like the old days.

It doesn't exactly sound legal. People
are doing things to you that sure as

aren't legal.

Now, this is international contraband.
You could be helping your country,

I don't believe any of this. You better.

These guys play rough.

Now, they target an industry, and then
they move in.

It's a murder here, a kidnapping there,
and then they take over. And we think

they want to put a lock on this whole
valley.

What better place to start than Falcon
Crest?

And the handsome prince searched all
over the kingdom for his beautiful

princess.

He finally found her in a green meadow.

And when they saw each other, they
started to run towards each other.

And the princess called to him.

I have some wonderful news.

My divorce is final today.

That isn't right, Mama.

Don't be so sure.

This is a new story.

When the prince heard the good news, he
said to her, Will you marry me?

That's it.

Yeah.

When is the big dragon going to eat them
up?

It's time for bed, Joseph.

But I want to know how the story came
out.

And they all lived happily ever after.

Come here, both of you.

Clean

your

windscreen while your petrol's filling?

All right.

You sound like you spent a little time
in the UK.

Yeah, I race stock cars there.

Pretty turned -on lifestyle, I believe.

Swinging. You might like it.

Maybe.

Well.

Surprise, surprise.

I normally only get to see you at
parties or other business.

Safety in numbers.

Talking of which, a friend of mine,
Andrew, has a party over the weekend.

of people.

Lots of safety.

But of course.

Would you care to come along?

Love to.

Good. I'll be in touch.

All right. Thank you.

There you are, Julia.

By the time we wheel you into surgery,
you won't be feeling a thing.

Oh, God.

Please don't do this to me. Please. It's
the very best thing for you.

Do you feel it yet?

You will be all right, my dear. What is
the meaning of this? You are a butcher,

Dr. Walker.

I'm taking over the care of this patient
and filing charges against you with a

medical association. You are only a
psychiatrist, Dr. DeBercy, not a

don't know what makes you think that you
could possibly know what is best for

this patient.

I know that you are only a puppet for
Angela Channing. You will not destroy

woman at her mother's bidding.

Well done. That'll be all.

She will be unconscious for several
hours, Veris.

We no longer need the hospital room. You
can rearrange it according to our

plans. But leave the mirror.

We must make our guest as comfortable as
possible.

Yes, sir.

Yeah, it's all tuned in. I'll be
listening.

Okay, well, because this is my first
editorial, so I want you to let me know

it sounds.

All right, you go for it.

I'll talk to you later.

Mike Harris is out in the studio.

I think he brought Maggie's mother with
him.

Is Maggie out there?

She's about to go on the air.

I'm sure.

Definitely, Mr. Charney.

She's her mother.

This station will soon inaugurate a new
anti -crime hotline, which the public

can use to report any suspicious person
or incident that might be part of a

crime. KR... Excuse me.

KRDC believes that it is time for all of
us to do something about this

situation.

Individuals as members of civic
organizations and as concerned family

we must all get involved.

Charlotte. Madeline.

I can't quite believe this is really
happening.

No, I've dreamed of seeing you for such
a long, long time.

Really, it's like a miracle, isn't it?

It is.

You've got a bonus coming.

Come on.

Oh, darling.

Mr.

Harris, the bonus I promised you.

Thank you, Mrs. Shannon. I presume that
Maggie took her mother home with her.

I understand that there will be a family
celebration this evening.

Well, thank you very much.

It's been a pleasure. Good day.

Angela, I've got some good news and some
bad news.

Oh? The good news is that I may be able
to prevent Melissa from inheriting your

share of Falconcrest, but the bad news
is that to do it, I'm going to have to

set up a trust fund for Lance that may
probably be irrevocable.

Well, that sounds a little drastic, but
as long as she's cut out... Oh, I can

certainly do that.

Lance will benefit from the trust, and
there'll be very little left from the

estate for her to inherit anything.

That's marvelous.

Finalize it. Done.

And I'll make the announcement at just
the right time.

Tell me, why did you go to such length
to do a favor for Maggie Giobetti? You

must know something that I don't. I'm
glad you're finally admitting it.

Charlotte Pershing has a secret.

One that will cause Maggie and Chase a
great deal of trouble.

I should have guessed that there was a
catch.

And this is our bedroom.

What a lovely room.

Thank you.

Did you decorate it? Yeah, I did.

You've used my favorite colors.

Ah. I have drapes like this. Very much
like this.

That's interesting, isn't it? Yes, it
is. It is.

There's really so much that we don't
know about each other.

I have about a thousand questions I
wanted to ask. Now I can't think of one

them. I can.

You're wondering how I could give you up
when you were just a tiny infant.

Well, not just that.

It's what I'd be wondering.

Things are different now.

Single women have babies and keep them.
No, I realize that.

It's something I need to know.

Of course.

Your father was a fine man.

Oliver Donovan?

Mm -hmm.

Commander in the Navy.

You should have seen him in uniform.

Handsome, dashing, all of that.

And yet so gentle, so kind.

Tall and slender and blonde like you.
Yes, I've seen a picture.

He was a real charmer.

How did you meet?

In the South Pacific.

Oh.

I was a singer with a USO show.

He was in charge of our transportation,
you know, getting us from base to base

to entertain the GIs.

Well, we fell in love.

Must have been very romantic.

Oh, I do that.

What? That gesture.

It's the same kind of gesture that I do.
I do that.

You better let me go on while I have the
courage.

Sorry.

Oliver was shipped out.

And the USO troop came home.

I heard from him once.

A very loving letter.

I know that he was killed in action.

I found that out just before you were
born.

My parents wouldn't have anything to do
with me.

I mean, it was shameful having a
daughter unmarried, pregnant.

Then I lost Oliver.

It must have been very difficult for
you.

I wanted to die.

I thought I was going to.

It was such a difficult birth.

They kept me doped up because of the
pain.

The hospital had it all set up.

They told me it was for the best.

You know, even the chaplain there said
that.

I was 19.

So much I didn't know.

And you all of a sudden were gone.

I wanted to hold you just once more.

But it was too late.

You've been gone ever since.

Oh, it's all right, Charlotte.

I'm sorry. It's all right. Don't be
sorry, Mother.

I give up.

Richard's out for the evening, and I
don't have a thing to do.

Well, uh, you do now.

I'm on my way.

This young man is about to head for
Dreamland.

Mommy and Daddy will take you home
later, baby. Maybe Mrs. Miller will read

a story.

Uh, good night, baby. Mrs. Miller, could
you take my picture, please?

We were gonna tell you.

Later.

Melissa's divorce has just become final.

So... We're getting married.

No date yet, just, uh, a lot of
happiness.

Well, we wish you only the best.

This should be real good for Joseph.

This must all sound kind of mixed up to
you, Charlotte.

Oh, well, Maggie's told me a little
about the story.

You know, you're very lucky.

Love had a way of working things out.

I'm sure you'll be very happy.

Thank you, Charlotte.

I'm sure you will be.

Hello? Blue Eagle?

Ben, no need for code.

I checked the phones. You were right.
They were bugged. They aren't now.

What do you think about that?

Well, I've got to admit, something is
going on.

I'm at Earl's Liquor Store on Shiler
Road.

I'm in a van.

Van? Van?

Terry, I think I can fix it so Joe
McCarthy will no longer be able to

you.

How did you find that out?

I told you.

That I wanted to stop the crime wave
that my dear brother was blaming on my

racetrack.

And then the way you were waving your
gun at me indicated to me that an

investigation was called for.

Knowledge is power, Terry. Remember
that. When I know things, I can deal.

I'm listening.

Ah.

Try this one.

I can supply you with documents that
will prove your divorce did indeed go

through.

I'd like that very much.

You mentioned a deal.

My plans for Falcon Crest require the
harvest from as many vineyards as

possible, including yours.

That's all.

Except that I would appreciate it if you
could be at the turf club tomorrow at

noon when I announce my plans.

I'd love to be there.

I can't wait to see Lance.

You know, somehow I thought your
proposition entailed something a little

personal.

I would have said yes to that, too.

I'm flattered.

But you don't want to trade one kind of
blackmail for another.

Here's to our deal.

As is, Terry.

As is.

Not too many people seem to have arrived
at the party.

No, and there doesn't seem to be any
sign of Andrew either.

Wine in the cooler.

Gourmet food.

Soft music.

Looks as though we're expected.

Shall we dance?

You seem to be quite at home here.

Oh, I see Andrew quite often.

As Richard Channing's head of
security...

I always check out the new arrivals in
the valley.

Especially the men.

Everything about them?

Oh, yes.

First, middle, and last names.

Credit ratings, and... I've also noticed
all the monograms are G -A -R.

My word, what a clever girl you are.

Yes, I was here when you first came to
town.

Gregory Andrew Redmond. Ah, dear old
Andrew.

Hope you saved those listening devices.

Yeah, for the sheriff.

No local law yet.

Well, those devices can be reinserted in
your telephone, and then we can give

them the information we want to.

Them? They are out there, Jason.

Wait a minute. Wait a minute.

This is Richard Channing's place.

Right. Figured you could show me around
the place.

I'm getting out of here.

Get us both shot.

Just stay outside.

This is a dirty trick.

I created their cable problem. Won't
take long to fix it.

Evening.

I'm with Tuscany Valley Cable TV. Got to
work over here to check our equipment

in the Channing house.

I heard they was having trouble.

It was signed by Richard Channing
himself.

I can read.

Mr. Channing's out for the evening.

Miss Lorraine's up there.

Well, I won't disturb her.

Thank you, sir.

I knew Channing was out.

Lorraine Prescott is a friend of my
wife.

Well, then don't let her see you.

What are we doing here?

Back home, we call it making out.

Lorraine, Lorraine, I couldn't live with
myself tomorrow morning if I took

advantage of you here in Richard's
bedroom.

I want you to be sure.

But I am.

But I don't want to take advantage of
you.

Not here.

What's your hurry? I changed my mind.

It was Lance Compson with Lorraine.

Richard would kill him.

Well, maybe not literally.

Probably kill us, too, and I do mean
literally.

You don't know him very well.

What darling parties that Andrew gives.

That's fascinating, people.

The music was wonderful.

The food was divine.

And the wine was intoxicating.

I quite lost my head.

I don't normally kiss on the first date.

Kiss?

We did kiss, didn't we?

I think so.

Channing probably has you checked often,
but you might as well leave it to your

little bugs.

The gear in my truck will monitor these
from anywhere in the valley.

What are you expecting to find out?

Answers to a lot of miscellaneous
questions.

What are you talking about? Why get me
involved?

You were already involved before I got
here.

Your phones were bugged. The airplane
was no doubt sabotaged.

Why are you doing this?

I'd do it for God and country, Chase.

How about $100 ,000 a year with free
hospitalization?

You're crazy as ever. Now let's get out
of here.

A sec.

What do you think?

How's it sound to you?

Never better.

You got a talent with motors.

They say I've got a touch.

I drive them, too.

Is that right?

I like to put the hammer down now and
then.

You want some competition?

You got a car?

A friend of mine does.

Just might beat this bucket of bull.

For fun or you want to make this
worthwhile?

We both put up five grand.

Winner take all.

Deal.

I gotta go.

We'll work out the details later.

Anytime you say.

Yo.

Looks like you're all set as usual.
Anything else I can do?

Uh, yes. Get me a glass of milk.

I had a hard night. This wine business
isn't easy.

Hello, stranger.

Oh, the lady in blue.

Glass of milk, please.

Hi, beautiful.

Ooh, hi yourself.

How are you? Miserable.

Hating myself for what I didn't do last
night.

You know, in the cold light of day, you
were right.

Why? I love you for it, Lance.

Milk?

See you. Bye.

Well, we're all here, Mother.

You may be sorry you're part of this
omnivorous pack.

Oh, come on. I like the turf club.

Yeah, it's lovely, isn't it? Oh, Chase.

Maggie, nice to see you.

Angela. Emma Channing, I'd like you to
meet Charlotte Pershing, my mother.

Maggie, how wonderful.

What a nice surprise.

I know what it means to Maggie.

It means a lot to me, too. Ladies and
gentlemen.

Oh, we must get together after the
meeting. I'm so glad you're here.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you'll all
please be seated.

We'll try and get this show on the road.

I promise you I won't take too long,
then we can all get outside and bet on

horses.

Thank you for coming.

First of all, welcome to the Tuscany
Downs Turf Club.

I believe the time has come for
Falconcrest not only to join the 20th

but to move ahead into the future and
start producing high -volume, low -cost

wines.

I want to volume produce.

And that means using every available
harvest in this valley. In that regard,

am most happy to announce I have an
agreement with Terry Ranson for the

of her grapes.

In order to do what I'm talking about, I
propose building a computer -controlled

winery.

Do you know that if we program the right
information into the computer, it will

tell us when to harvest, to crush, to
bottle. It will solve our marketing

problems. And it will lead us to a
growing margin of profit, not only over

next five years, but over the next 25
years.

For our new product, I suggest the name
Francesca Wine by Falcon Crest.

After the lovely lady who made all of
this possible for me.

I propose we start building our winery
as soon as possible. It's all in here,

ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you for coming.

Lorraine, this, uh... Lovely lady, we'll
hand these out to you.

Thank you for your attention. And again,
I urge my partners and their families

to give this careful consideration.

The bar's open. The buffet is ready.
Please enjoy yourselves.

Thank you.

What do you think?

Don't bother to read that trash.

Aren't you at all interested in
increasing profits?

Right now, I'm more interested in
Charlotte Pershing.

She can't wait to get to the bedding
window.

Perhaps she likes horse racing.

You wondered why I did that favor for
Maggie and finding her mother.

Well, Mike Harris found her in a
rehabilitation center.

I think Chase will be very happy to know
his newfound mother -in -law is an

incurable, compulsive gambler.
