Hi, Maggie.

Listen, I just want to talk. Relax, relax. Look, leave me alone. All I need

little help from you. I'm not going to bother you. I'm not going to do

Just relax. Hold it, Wainwright.

Stay out of this, Chase.

Let me do my job. Then do it.

Excuse me.

I don't mean to interrupt your argument, but I'm leaving Falconcrest.

There's no need to do this, son.

Good riddance.

If you need me for any reason, I'll be living with Melissa.

Jeff Wainwright isn't just a menace. This creep is dangerous.

Now, according to those clippings, he was the prime suspect in the

murder of a woman that he was badgering the same way he is badgering me.

But Maggie, those charges were dropped.

Insufficient evidence.

You don't expect me to arrest this guy for murder, do you? Of course not,

but there's got to be something you can do.

Coming by the house or sending Maggie gifts is hardly a crime.

It is if it's harassment.

Harassment is hard to prove. What about his visit to Angela? Isn't that proof?

A, all we've got is Angela's word, which isn't worth so much these days, that

Wainwright suggested anything threatening.

And B, even if it did go as she said, it sounds to me more like the rantings of

a jealous boyfriend than anything really threatening.

A jealous boyfriend? Now, Maggie, are you sure you didn't do anything to

encourage his... I have done everything... Lloyd!

I've got to ask the question... My wife is the victim. Let's not forget that.

With nothing more to go on, all I can do is keep my eyes open. If I see this

guy, I'll have a talk with him. You better do something fast before I take

of this guy myself.

And don't go making this thing any worse than it already is. It's already worse.

I want it over.

Thank you.

behavior was most unexpected i mean utterly bizarre if i hadn't known better

would have thought she was some kind of imposter anyway as soon as i got on the

phone to you she just took off greg before you go any further i must advise

if we're discussing my patient i'm obliged to share the details of our

discussion with her i would tell her myself if only i could find her i mean

i've got from a long night Looking is an empty gas tank and bloodshot eyes. I

mean, what the hell is going on with her? I've only just begun to scratch the

surface of Jordan's psyche.

But surely you've got some suspicions. And what little I do know is protected

the rules of doctor -patient confidentiality. Damn it, I am not here

I'm her friend.

Probably the only friend that she's got. I mean, after all, I was the one who

encouraged her to come to you for help in the first place. Which is exactly

I'm trying to do.

But I can no more open my patient files to you than you can your client files to

me. I see. So you're going to let a matter of ethics preempt a matter of

and death. We don't know that to be the case. Yeah, we don't know it's not the

case either.

Jordan is sick.

I mean, very sick.

You and I may be the only two people who are standing between her and self

-destruction. Don't overlook her mother.

That's a joke.

Harriet Roberts is the last person on God's green earth who Jordan would go to

for help. Doesn't that in itself tell you something?

Yes? Miss Roberts is here to see you, Dr. Kramer.

Oh, thank God.

I need a moment.

It appears the immediate crisis has passed.

You can leave through that door. I want to see her. Not here.

I cannot compromise my relationship with her by including you in the therapy.

Okay, stop.

I just sure hope you know what you're doing.

Ask Miss Roberts to step in, please.

Jordan, come in.

Dr. Cramer, you've got to help me. I just came to wandering around the red

district and... I don't know how I got there. Try to calm yourself.

I... Jordan, here, sit down.

Now, I want you to tell me everything you remember.

After you're finished, I'll tell you what I know.

Between the two of us... I think we can start getting a handle on what's

happening to you.

Your mail has just arrived.

Thank you, Charlie.

Baron and Baroness von Himmel. Congratulations. Best wishes.

We're invited to join them this summer at their Alpine Chalet.

Who are the von Himmels?

Oh, acquaintances. Basically humorless, but terribly wealthy.

I don't believe this.

Melissa Agretti and Eric Stavros cordially invite us to attend the

groundbreaking ceremony for the Agretti -Stavros winery. Now, what do you think

about that?

Well, I'm surprised.

I'd have expected Eric to insist on placing his name first.

Not funny, Peter.

Angela, I promise you, Eric has no intentions of doing anything harmful to

When he's through playing out this ridiculous folly, that harvest will find

way back where it belongs, to Falcon Crest.

For the first time into my son's life, he's demonstrating a flair for business.

Now, I'm neither prepared to condemn it as folly nor willing to do anything that

might dull his enthusiasm.

Even if it hurts me?

My dear, you have always insisted on doing your business your way.

Now, if you feel this strongly about it, you have my permission to speak to Eric

yourself. Well, I do feel this strongly.

And I certainly don't need permission to talk to whomever about whatever, ever.

Well, the sheriff's right about this fellow's bothering Maggie.

There's not much more he can do than keep his eyes open and be ready for

whenever it arrives.

Well, I guess we'll have to leave all that in Floyd's hands.

There is something I want you to do for me, Riley.

I need a title search done on Tuscany Downs.

Oh, don't tell me you're thinking of buying into that open sore?

Never.

But let me try something out on you.

Richard was having money troubles with the track.

Serious troubles.

Only those troubles just went away just about the time our little Miss Jones

double -crossed us at Angela's trial.

What does that sound like to you?

Sounds like the fox in the henhouse.

What do you think I'm going to find in this title search?

Evidence that Richard sold us out in exchange for help with his money

I'll stop by the Hall of Records on my way back to the office.

Let's keep this very low key.

You and Maggie are the only ones clued into this, and we wouldn't want to spook

the guilty parties.

If you're right, they'll be spooked for sure.

Quote, right into prison.

Suborning a witness is one of the seven deadly sins.

Oh, hi, Riley.

You're not going to believe what we just got in the mail.

Oh, what is this? An invitation to the...

Stavros Winery groundbreaking ceremony. How cocky.

Melissa changes men like some women change purses.

I haven't seen you carry the same purse twice.

What's that?

Oh.

Cassandra Waters.

Most recent knife in the back.

I believe this knife is called a sonogram.

I can see you're so uptight. Believe me, I don't like to be so uptight. I just,

I can't.

Every once in a while, I just see his face in those eyes, and I... You need a

distraction.

Why don't we take a break, hop in the car, drive into San Francisco, have an

early dinner, see a movie?

Hmm.

Chinese and a comedy.

Whatever turns you on.

Good. Let's go now before another crisis pops up, okay? Okay, good idea.

Ah, let's play.

Where's my pocketbook?

If you feel like it, we might get a hotel room and spend the night. Oh, good

idea. Well, maybe I should pack a little overnight bed.

Why? Why? Oh, I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.

My dearest Maggie, neither rain nor sleet nor chase nor the threat of arrest

will keep me separated from you nor you from me till death do us part.

My

dearest

Greg, Dr.

Kramer told me all about your visit today.

She's helping me realize how difficult, how terribly painful my behavior has

been for you.

It seems the more understanding you are, the more impossible I am to understand.

Even worse, the more forgiving you are.

The less I seem to deserve your forgiveness.

Dr. Kramer is also helping me see how so much of my behavior has been beyond my

control, but she promises it needn't be that way forever.

None of the people who care for me are willing to help me work through this

nightmare.

You're all I have, Greg.

Please don't abandon me.

I need you more now than ever before.

I do love you.

Truly.

I just pray that someday I'll be able to show you just how deep my

love is.

Dr. Kramer says I have to work hard and stay strong to beat this.

Then we'll have to stay strong and work hard together.

You're a better person than I deserve.

And you feel you've done everything within your power to dissuade this Jeff

Wayne Wright from making any further contact with you? Yes. We've both tried,

Your Honor, even to the point of being blunt, to little effect. You can see

that note he intends to keep up the harassment until the authorities stop

Anything to add, Sheriff?

Well, I requested a report from the authorities in Boston.

Wainwright was a suspect in a murder case there five years ago.

And there are some parallels, but not enough to make an arrest.

Well, we can't have outsiders bothering our citizens.

I'll grant a cease and desist for erring Mr. Wainwright from making any direct

contact with Mrs. Gioberti or from coming within 100 yards of your person.

Thank you, Your Honor.

That'll be a big help.

Not until I find this guy and lay that court order on him, it won't.

Father, do you think it's possible I could one day make my home here in

You surprise me, Li Ying. I had the impression you were happy in China.

You don't think I could be happy here?

What I think is not important.

Your feelings are what matters.

Could this sudden effect in whole America have something to do with your

I told you, Father, I'm no longer engaged.

Yes, but you did not tell me why.

There are outside pressures forcing Jianhua into marriage with someone else.

How could that be?

I thought the revolution put a stop to arranged marriages.

Not entirely.

Now instead of our families arranging marriages, our committees are

who we should and should not marry.

Jianhua is fearful of losing his position at the research center if he

I know how painful a loveless marriage can be.

I had hoped our homeland had progressed beyond that archaic practice.

Oh, hi.

Hello.

Do you mind if I join you? Not at all, Lance. Lance has been my student for

years. Oh, perhaps you can give me a lesson?

Oh, well, I don't know.

You're pretty good.

Well,

Li Ying, that was your first lesson in falling.

It's impressive, isn't it?

You know, every time I walk through these doors, I can't help appreciating

father's vision.

That's exactly why I'm here.

To study the master.

The more I see, the more I realize how little I know.

Well, that's very smart of you.

You know, Falcon Crest has been a major force in the wine business for many

years.

Just like your father is a major force in shipping.

My father owes a lot of his success to World War II salvage.

being able to triple the size of his fleet for less than the cost of one new

ship.

What do you owe your success to?

Luck, opportunity, and a lot of hard work.

Of course, the Agretti grapes have a great deal to do with that, too.

Are we getting to the point of this history lesson?

I want us to continue being a success.

I see no reason why you shouldn't.

Oh, I will.

As long as I control the Agretti Harvest.

I see.

I told Peter you'd understand.

You have to understand something, too, Mrs. Channing.

Those grapes are part of your history, not your future.

Melissa and I are trying to write a history of our own.

Every time we start to get close, every time we start to have some kind of a

decent marriage, something happens.

I'm telling you, Maggie, this man is about to drive me to drink.

Carrie, you knew what you were getting into when you married him, so... Hey,

listen, I can handle his manipulations. I can handle his duplicity, his

treachery, his conniving, even his obstinacy, no problem. The man of many

virtues. But this obsession with this child that Cassandra Wilder is about to

drive is driving me up a wall.

Maggie, can I... a personal question.

Yeah, sure.

After you had your baby, how long did it take you to get your figure back?

Terry, whether to have a baby or not should have nothing to do with your

I know that.

How long did it take?

Look, let me give you a little warning.

Richard's lifestyle is about to catch up with him faster than anybody knows, and

if you don't want to make things harder on yourself, you're not going to let him

get you pregnant.

Look, is this some kind of riddle? You're going to tell me what you're

about.

Terry, I've already said more than I should.

What, Wicker?

Fresh from the County Hall of Records.

I feel like Santa Claus delivering your Christmas wish.

Now, there are a lot of little variances here that don't add up to a hill of

beans. But there is one item that ought to raise an eyebrow or two.

Take a gander at who owns the first mortgage on Tuscany Downs.

Angela Channing? The same.

Recorded the day before she turned herself into the sheriff.

Convenient, huh?

I knew Richard was up to something.

Any idea who held the mortgage on Tuscany Downs before Angela?

Wasn't hard to find out. San Francisco Merchant Bank.

Hello, all.

Hi.

Terry, um... I know.

Don't ask.

Bye, all.

Bye -bye.

Couldn't you give me a warning?

Please, I... Give me a meeting with somebody important at Merchant Bank,

What's going on here, anyway?

If Richard did what I think he did, I'm going to nail him.

And Angela.

And probably a few other people at the same time.

Let's hope Terry wasn't involved in this for your sake.

Hello, how was your day?

Oh, really?

Well, my day was kind of interesting.

How interesting, you ask?

Well, for one thing, I visited Maggie.

Now, that may not sound very interesting on the surface, but when Maggie made a

reference to your lifestyle catching up with you, it certainly caught my

attention.

Now, I probably would have let it go, but then I ran into Chase and that old

fogey attorney of his on my way out the door. When they saw me, they acted

positively weird. I am telling you, Richard, there is something going on in

Gioverdi household.

Something bad.

And to this you have nothing to say.

You've got a hell of an imagination going to waste.

Why don't you do what Maggie did and write a book?

And I used to think you were so smart.

Richard Channing.

I want you to meet me in my office in an hour.

I've got a problem.

Now, don't get me wrong.

I appreciate the work.

But I do have a personal life.

And a very exciting personal life at that, I'm sure.

However, we have a personal problem.

Which is?

Staying out of jail.

It's come to my attention that my dear brother Chase has been spending all of

his free time trying to find a connection between me and you.

And your testimony at Angela's trial.

What does he know?

Maybe nothing.

Maybe everything. It just came up.

Do you trust your source?

Usually not as far as I can throw her, but even Terry can't be wrong all the

time. I hope she is this time.

Perjury carries a very nasty price tag.

Well, I don't think you and I can afford to take the chance that she's wrong

this time.

I would say it would be in both of our best interests to keep a very close eye

on Chase Gioberti.

You keep in touch, you hear?

Breakfast in bed?

Continental breakfast in bed.

From your resident continental fellow.

Stale

orange

juice?

Well, it's the thought that counts.

Why do I have a morning mouth or something? Worse.

You have an estranged husband dropping Joseph off in a few minutes.

But Cole and I are undoubtedly destined to have a confrontation or two.

I'm in his house.

I'll come in his robe, for God's sake.

But I'd rather not battle it out in front of your son.

I can't live like this, Eric.

Sneaking around, letting you out the back door like we're carrying on some

of illicit affair.

We've got nothing to hide.

I'm only doing this to protect you.

Mr. Reardon?

Thank you for agreeing to meet with me.

No, thank you.

No, I rather wish we could be doing this in more private surroundings.

It's something that I learned from my late husband.

In order to avoid unpleasant scenes, always meet in a public place.

Then I will attempt to make this as pleasant as possible.

I assume that Jordan is the business you wish to discuss?

Mrs. Roberts, I don't think you fully realize the extent of her problem.

Right now, your daughter is going through an emotional crisis of major

proportions. Jordan's problems are all her own making.

They're products of an overactive imagination, Mr. Rudin.

Half -truths and outright lies.

Now, she's ruined her father's life, she's ruined my life, and if you're not

careful, she's going to ruin your life, too.

You've spent years denying that your daughter was emotionally and sexually

abused. I don't have to listen to that kind of talk. And that denial has

cost you the life of your husband.

Now, Jordan is all that you have left.

And if you don't come through for her right now, there's one thing I can

promise.

You're going to lose her, too.

Enjoy your lunch.

I feel I can talk about this matter because it's no longer this bank's

Are you certain Mr. Channing was about to default on this loan?

Oh, without a doubt.

Our loan board felt it was imprudent for us to refinance.

And I had it on excellent authority that Mr. Channing was finding it impossible

to raise the necessary funds from other sources.

Foreclosure on Tuscany Downs was in it.

Had it not been for Stavros Enterprises, well... Wait, wait, wait a minute.

According to county records, Angela Channing...

holds this note against Tuscany Downs.

Perhaps Stavros Enterprises was acting as Mrs. Channing's agent.

Regardless of the buyer, we were thrilled not to have to foreclose.

We're in the money business, not the horse racing business.

We took the first offer with virtually no negotiations.

Mr. Adams, would you be willing to testify to these events in court?

Why, this... Bank hasn't been involved in any improprieties. We haven't broken

any laws. Oh, I'm not saying you have.

But I'm pretty damn sure there are a few other people who have.

All right, so what do you got?

Chase spent slightly over an hour with Mr.

Adams of the San Francisco Merchant Bank. I have no idea what was discussed.

I do.

His body language is any indication Chase found what he was looking for.

I'll bet what he did turn a cartwheel.

Why can't he mind his own business?

Seems like a good time to invest in an open plane ticket to foreign parts

unknown. Just in case.

Good scout is always prepared.

I wasn't a scout, and I'll bet you weren't either.

Aaron, I'm not giving up, and I'm sure as hell not running.

Things blow up.

Angela Channing and Peter Stavros have a lot at stake, too.

Maybe it's time to enlist their help.

No.

It's the last thing in the world I want to do. There's nothing Angela would like

better than to sell me out so she could save her own skin.

Oh, there's got to be a better way out of this mess.

If there is, I'd love to hear it.

By the way, do you have somebody else besides me following Chase?

Oh, why?

Male, Caucasian, about 35, 160 pounds, like around here. What's this guy got to

do with anything?

I'm not sure.

But wherever Mr. and Mrs. Giaverdi went, this guy was sure to follow.

I thought maybe you hired somebody else because you didn't trust me. I don't

trust you. But your head's on the line the same as mine.

At least they understand each other.

Good. Now, what else?

Well, this guy didn't act like a prince. I don't care about this guy. I want you

to keep your focus on Chase.

Stan?

It's so nice having you to come home to, my darling.

Angela, what's troubling you?

Didn't Chow Lee tell you I called saying my meeting in San Francisco was running

late? I won't tolerate this anymore.

I will not have that traitor living under this roof one more night.

Well, there's no need to be so harsh. Chow Lee has been loyal for over 40

A forgotten phone message is no reason to fire the man.

I'm not talking about Chow Lee.

I'm talking about your son.

Now, I've thought about this long and hard, and I insist that he leave

immediately. All this because of some insignificant business deal with Melissa

Greti?

Insignificant? He's declared himself my enemy. Now, he has to go.

Angela, if you insist on throwing my son out of this house, you might as well

throw me out with him.

Don't test me. You?

I'm the one being tested.

You wouldn't act this way if Eric was your son.

If he were my son, he wouldn't have turned on me.

If you believe that, you're living in a fantasy world.

The members of your family aren't exactly pillars of royalty.

I don't have to listen to this.

Excuse me.

I don't mean to interrupt your argument, but I'm leaving Fountaincrest. You

don't need to do this, son.

Good riddance.

If you need me for any reason, I'll be living with Melissa.

Does that make you any happier?

No. It makes me angrier.

Women.

The place hasn't been occupied in a while. Couldn't stand a good cleaning.

No problem.

Hammer and a nail fits it right up.

Dwayne, we have to talk.

Emma, I know what you're thinking. This place needs a lot of work done if it's

going to be our honeymoon cottage, but I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and

plunge right in.

I know it doesn't look like much right now.

Emma, it's even got its own dog house.

But we don't have a dog. But we will, a whole slew of them, and kids, too.

Hey, you want to take one last look at the kitchen before we go? No.

I think I can imagine what it would look like with the sinks back in and the

hole in the floor fixed.

Emma. Emma, you want to hear the best part about the whole thing?

Definitely. This little honey is right smack in my price range.

Lucky us.

Can I help you?

No, thank you. I've done this many times.

No, I didn't mean, can I help you, can I give you a hand? I meant, can I help

you? You're trespassing on my property.

I'm Cole Gioberti.

My apologies. I thought I was on Falcon Crest Land.

No. Property line's about 60 yards up that way.

I see.

No, that won't do. The equipment belongs here.

Miss.

Li Ying.

Miss Li Ying.

Not Miss, just Li Ying. Chao Li is my father.

I didn't realize you had any children.

Would you mind telling me what you're doing?

Testing the type, frequency, and severity of the Earth's movement in

more accurately predict earthquakes.

You're a seismologist.

Aren't you, uh, Awfully... young to be a

seismologist? Seismology is a young science.

Never thought of it that way.

Is there something else?

Uh, no. No. Nothing else.

Well, I don't see any reason why you can't leave your equipment right here.

Does it require a lot of monitoring?

I should be by here at least once a day, sometimes more.

That often, huh?

Well, maybe I'll drop by sometime and you can explain more about what you're

doing.

Please do. I would enjoy the company.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I'll do that.

I don't care how much paint and wallpaper you use. I couldn't live in

for one minute.

Even with the man you love?

It has nothing to do with love. It has to do with kitchens that work, closet

space, and functioning indoor plumbing.

Okay, it's not the kind of house you used to.

But,

Emma... Hi, Dean.

Hello. Hi.

But, Emma, it's the best I can afford.

Free would be too much to pay.

Dwayne, I have money, but it's wasted if you won't let me spend it on us. Where

I come from, that's not the way we do things.

Why wasn't I born poor?

Is money always such a problem in this country?

No. Lack of money is.

I just want to talk to you. Leave me alone. I don't mean to bother you. Well,

you... Wait, Wainwright.

Stay out of this, please.

Let me do my job. Then do it.

Jeff Wainwright.

Is there a problem, Sheriff?

You're the problem, Mr. Wainwright.

Now, in case you have trouble reading, I just served you with a court order that

prohibits you from making any further contact with Mrs.

Giaberti.

No contact means just what it says. No talking...

No writing, no nothing.

Even come within 100 yards of that woman, I'm going to toss your butt in

and throw away the key.

Now, Mr. Wainwright, are we going to have any more problems?

Officer, would you be kind enough to tell Mrs.

Gioberti that I'm very, very sorry if she thinks I've been bothering her?

I only hope the winery is as successful as this party.

Well, if it isn't, we can always go into the catering business.

Melissa.

Hello, Terry.

I'm so glad you could make it.

I'd never miss one of your parties.

They're so infrequent.

Aren't you going to introduce us?

Terry Channing, this is Eric Stavros.

My pleasure.

And mine.

You know, you can tell a lot about the man by the firmness of his handshake.

You're looking fit.

Fit as a fiddle. Well, thank you, Richard. You're not looking too bad

So, is there any progress on our business with Julia Compson?

Not yet.

When? Today?

In time.

Just give me some time.

Make it a short time.

I need leverage and I need it now.

Hello, Richard. Hello, Chase.

Maggie.

We should have had a party like this when we went into business together.

Well, I think we'll have plenty to celebrate soon enough.

Why don't we find a table, honey? Yeah.

My goodness, Chase is certainly looking chipper.

Isn't he now?

No, thank you. No, thank you.

Not only is this fiasco bad for Palkingrath, but I feel like I'm in the

of a three -ring circus. I promise you, Angela, it will all work out for the

best.

At least Eric seems to be having a good time.

Why shouldn't he?

With Melissa, he has his very own clown.

Hello. Hi.

Having a good time?

Not really.

Angela, you've got to learn to enjoy yourself. You know how fleeting fun can

See you later.

Did you see that smile?

He's up to something. My dear, must you always be so suspicious?

Yes.

Excuse me.

Come here.

You feel as lovely as you look.

Thanks to you, I'm feeling absolutely wonderful.

Then maybe we could just go out and find somewhere for a quiet dinner.

You're saying that watching the water table can tell you when an earthquake is

coming? The monitoring of the water table is important to the process, but

still discovering many new factors which come to bear on predicting major land

movement.

You met my cousin Cole.

I had no idea you two were related. We don't talk about it that much.

Is my daughter frightening you with her research?

Not at all. I find it fascinating.

It is always fascinating when a great event is upon us. And according to my

calculations, that event should take place in the very near future.

What event?

An earthquake of significant proportions, if my figures are correct.

my findings to the university next week.

I'd like to thank you all for being here to celebrate the beginnings of the

Agretti Stavros Winery.

This means a great deal to me.

Most importantly, because it's the fulfillment of my father's will.

Though I've only been here a brief time, I hope this is the first step in making

the Tuscany Valley My home.

What's the

sheriff

doing here?

Hey, Floyd.

What's wrong?

I didn't want you to do anything foolish, Chase.

Why would I do something foolish?

What's he doing here? We have a court order.

That's part of the problem.

Judge says Wainwright can't come any closer than 100 yards.

Looks to me like he's taking that as an invitation not to go any farther away.

As long as he stays within the limits of that court order, he's a citizen with

rights just like you and Maggie.

No, come on, Floyd. Surely there's something else you can do. Until he

the law, there's nothing I can do.

Yeah. Not until it's too late.

Believe me, Chase, I'm sorry.

Next on Falcon Threads.

Who ordered these flowers?

Maggie, all my love, your secret admirer.

Well, I'm sorry, but I can't go along with this wedding.

You wouldn't dare try to stop it. We're almost certain that you're going to have

a minor earthquake in the next ten days centered here in the valley. I'm not a

big believer in earthquake predictions.

You will be.
