All language subtitles for Falcon Crest s06e07 Double Jeopardy

Previously on FalconCraft.

You know, the sad truth is, you're
Angela's boy, not mine.

Mr. Favreau still hasn't seen through
you, has he?

Marrying me was a nice touch.

But don't get any ideas about double
-crossing me, Richard.

Eric would never do such a thing. I
didn't want to believe it either, but

checks were in his room.

That's for the pain and anguish you've
caused my wife.

And tonight.

You're saying I took those chicks?

Well, the evidence speaks for itself.

Blackmail is an ugly word. I prefer to
think of myself as your guardian angel.

I'm through talking. You want to talk?
Talk to Fix.

Did you or did you not murder a police
officer?

What I did was right.

I won't let Eric get by with this
outrage.

Angela, please try to be understanding.

Eric's been under a great deal of stress
lately.

Lance and Melissa's marriage came as
quite a shock to him. Well, it was a

to me, too. But I didn't take anything
that wasn't rightfully mine.

I insist you give Eric a chance to
explain. You mean lie.

Oh, excuse me, Miss Channy.

Eric has returned.

Well, I'm back, if anybody cares.

Son, we've been concerned about you.

Well, I'm sorry I took off without
saying goodbye.

I didn't think anybody'd miss me at
Lance and Melissa's reception.

You have no idea how rejuvenating a
weekend at the beach can be.

especially when you're spending someone
else's money.

Am I supposed to understand that remark?

Eric, we have to talk.

Skyler, would you excuse us, please? No.

I think Skyler should hear this, too.

Listen to what?

What's going on?

Does this look familiar?

No. Is it supposed to?

Charlie found those checks in your room.

Hidden in your room.

You're saying I took those checks?

Well, the evidence speaks for itself.

This is crazy.

What could I possibly gain from stealing
your blank check? Up to now, about $5

,000. That's cab fare and an adequate
lunch.

It's the principal, not the amount.

And I don't relish having a thief living
in my house.

Angela, we're still trying to determine
who the thief is.

Oh, it's worse than that, Father.

She also thinks I took a home study
course in forgery.

I have my own money. And every penny of
it is wrapped up in the Agretti winery.

Now, if it weren't for the scandal and
the pain that it would cause your

I would have you arrested.

Eric, isn't there any feasible
explanation you can give for this?

Oh, sure.

The same I always offer when there's the
stink of fraud in the air. Talk to

Lance. I won't have you slandering my
grandson's name. I won't be slandered by

you.

I can't say it's mine.

Father, I'm sure Eric would never try to
hurt you intentionally.

Peter, I wish there were another way to
handle this.

just discussing you, Eric.

Well, looks like Grandma finally caught
you with your fingers in the cookie jar.

And we both know why, don't we, Lance?

Melissa, have Doris count the flatware
when he leaves.

Lance, would you stop it?

Eric, what do you want?

You should know the kind of man you
married.

Slipping those checks of Angela's in my
room is a little bit obvious, don't you

think, Lance?

He's got a persecution complex, honey.
Don't pay any attention to him.

Personally, I think you should have quit
while you were ahead.

After you sabotaged our winery.

Your defensiveness is getting offensive,
Eric.

He's afraid of me, Melissa.

Afraid I'll take you away from him.

Or that I'll do all the things in this
valley he's too weak to accomplish.

That's the buzzer.

Time to make you use your words. Eric, I
think you better leave.

Oh, I'm going.

But if you think you're going to chase
me out of this valley, you're wasting

your time.

I'm staying here.

You know, those divorces are really
getting to be boring.

I wish Angela had done a better job in
picking her husband.

What are you looking at?

Let's get her to the hospital.

You've gone over all the figures,
compared my winery costs with your

costs, added in the operating expenses.

I'm afraid I don't see how we can cut
this a 50 -50 partnership.

I didn't expect 50 -50. I got on the
same figures myself.

How's 35 -65?

Sound fair to you?

Look, I think if you take a look there,
you'll see that...

Actually, a 70 -30 would be more
equitable.

70 -30.

Okay.

It's a deal.

All right, I'll be carrying the bulk of
the risk, so I need some sort of

guarantee in case I have to buy you out
for any reason. At fair market price,

you know some of the partners I've had.

I am not Angela, and I'm not Richard.

I understand your doubts, but I think
that you and I can make this work and

big.

After all, I'm willing to take a chance
and do things your way.

All right.

Have we overlooked anything, son?

You seem to have everything covered.

Then this marks the birth of Gioberti
-Cumson table wines. I'll have the

attorneys draw up the papers. A
handshake will do fine till then.

I like the way you do business already.

All but the doubting of the eyes and the
crossing of the teeth. Oh, great.

Well, we'll have to have a dinner to
celebrate.

Say what? Okay, okay. Show me that car
of yours. Oh, brother.

Bye -bye.

Looks like your father finally found
someone to go into business with.

Yeah.

So we can check in from Hawaii yet?

No, no, no.

And I suspect she's having a better time
there than we are worrying about her

here.

You know, Father, I don't think you
should be so hard on Eric. Or on

What good is wealth if people can't get
along?

Well, personally, I feel that Angela
overreacted.

Just as she did with me. What else has
Angela done?

333, please.

Skyler, you mustn't keep secrets from
me.

Thank you.

Well, promise that you won't say
anything to Angela.

I mean, you've got enough troubles
already.

By moving to the spa?

It was all her idea.

I understood it was your idea.

Well, let's just say I went along with
it to avoid a scene.

Well, you should have told me.

Would it have mattered?

After all, not everybody's capable of
treating another person's child as

lovingly as they treat their own, like
you've treated me.

I treat you as my own because you are my
own.

Blood has nothing to do with it.

That's what makes the Stavros different.

That's what makes you so special.

Thank you, darling.

You had Richard pegged from the
beginning, Meredith.

He's so desperate to stay out of jail.

He's made himself believe he loves me.

The man is pathetic.

All you have to do is hold on a little
longer.

Then it's just you and me, working on
our tans, surrounded by Channing's

millions.

You got everything squared away with
Dancer? Yeah, I took care of it last

He knows what to do if there's a
problem. Mm -hmm.

Meredith, I'd feel a whole lot better if
I knew you were handling that end

instead of Dancer. Erin, we've been over
this a thousand times.

Now, there can't be any connection
between you and me.

If something goes wrong, if it
backfires, I need to be free to get you

clear.

No, I'd feel better.

Relax.

I'll do all the worrying for you.

That's what big sisters are for, okay?

I want you to be sure that this is the
real thing.

More than anything in my entire life.
Good.

Here's a wedding present.

A romantic.

Of course. What do you think?

Passage to Rio.

For what?

We could go together. If you're willing
to wait until I've tied up some loose

ends here, take a couple of weeks.

Not a chance.

After I send Chase to that great winery
in the sky.

It won't take the cops five minutes in
my apartment to realize I was the

from the beginning. You're probably
right.

Just don't keep me waiting long.

You're choking me, Miss Johnson.

Yes, Garth.

Excuse me, Mr. Channing, but there's a
Miss Skylar Kimball at the door.

There is, yes, sir. Well, show her back
here.

Sir.

Who is she?

Don't be so nosy. No one who concerns
you. Come on. The closer we get to the

finish line, every single thing you do
concerns me.

She's one of those loose ends I was
telling you about. Business must go on,

appearances at least.

For your sake, I hope you're being
straight with me.

I don't have any choice, do I? You got
the goods on me, Miss Jones.

I do, don't I? You certainly do.

I'd better make myself scarce.

Why, uh, hello.

Next time, you should call first. You
never know, the wrong people might be

here, be a little awkward.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

When you blackmailed me into working for
you, you never explained the rule.

I don't like the word blackmail.

Blackmail is an ugly word. I prefer to
think of myself as your guardian angel.

Huh.

This is all just a game to you, isn't
it?

I mean, you're manipulating words,
manipulating people.

Life's a game, isn't it, Miss Marlowe?

What is it you wanted to see me about?

Well, Angela is still blaming Eric for
the stolen checks. Oh, really? And it's

causing a lot of trouble between her and
Peter. Good, good. Keep stoking those

fires and make sure the trouble
escalates.

But I don't want to cause him a lot of
needless pain.

Oh. Well, that's nothing compared to the
pain he's going to feel when he finds

out that you are not who you claim to
be.

Look, if you don't take care of that
damn fix like you promised, it may not

matter. Every time I turn around, that
guy is watching me. I think he likes

watching you. I know I do.

I always keep my promises, Miss Marlowe.

You read tomorrow's edition of The New
Globe.

Is it true that Eric moved back into the
spa?

I think it's for the best.

You know, I was watching this therapist
on cable TV last night. You want to know

what she said?

She said that one of the main causes of
conflict in marriage is adult children

living at home.

Excuse me.

This morning's edition of the New Globe,
Mrs. Channing.

Front page contains something of
particular interest.

Cop killer comes home.

Nothing like a glass of juice and more
than paper to start the day.

Funny, I didn't know you could read. Now
stop it, both of you.

Sit down, Dan.

You should have told me.

It has nothing to do with us.

Is it true?

As far as it goes, things were twisted
at the trial. They're no straighter now.

Did you or did you not murder a police
officer?

Things aren't what they seem.

What I did was right. At least it seemed
right at the time.

I killed someone who called himself a
cop, but it wasn't murder.

What, is that all you're going to say?

I served my time, Angela.

The state of Oklahoma is happy. You
should be, too.

I'm thrilled, as I'm sure our guests
will be, too, knowing that their

will not only book them dinner
reservations, but will murder them in

sleep.

Don't worry about it. I'll clear out of
here this morning. Now, just a moment.

You will clear out.

When I tell you to clear out.

You know, Lance is right.

We don't need a concierge who's going to
intimidate the guests.

But we could use an assistant manager
who might like to work behind the

You don't mean that.

The job is yours if you want it.

See, I trust you, Dan.

The plastics division of Stalvers
Chemical is having some trouble with

waste disposal.

Would you mind very much spending some
time in San Francisco and straightening

things out for me?

Don't you mean you want me to stay out
of Angela's hair until things cool off?

I know you didn't steal Angela's checks.

It was probably Lance's doing.

But until she can see that, too, it
might not be a bad idea.

Eric.

I can't think of anyone more capable of
looking after the family business than

you.

Thank you, Father, for believing in me.

I don't know if I'm going to make myself
scarce.

Now seems like a good time.

Peter?

Hello, Tony.

You talk to the fix, boy?

Yes. He says there's more to the story
than we know, and I believe him.

You take the word of a convicted killer,
but you refuse to believe my son.

I've watched him grow up. He's
practically a part of the family.

Eric is family.

Peter, when Dan Fix was a little boy,
his mother was almost killed in an

automobile accident.

Now, she lived, but she never walked
again.

There was no husband, no relatives to
take care of her and her son.

Well, what has that got to do with
anything?

Well, with no means of support, the
state was going to put him in a foster

Now, maybe the speeding car didn't kill
her, but losing her son would have.

So I took over their financial
obligations.

Your generosity is commendable, Angela,
but it's time for the charity to stop.

It isn't charity, Peter.

It's guilt.

I was the one who was driving that
speeding car.

All the more reason to protect yourself.
He's dangerous. You have no idea what

he has in mind.

He's just come home, that's all. Nothing
more, nothing less.

Now, if he were going to harm me, he
would have done so long ago.

Dina, if you've got any problem with the
story in the paper today, now's the

time. I don't read the paper.

It's too depressing.

You got that right.

Morning, Sheriff.

What brings you way out here?

You do, Fix.

You're kind and welcome around here.

Yeah, what kind is that?

If you even think about stepping out of
line, I'll nail your hide to my mantle.

Is this your standard civil rights
speech, or am I getting preferred

I'm watching you, Fix.

Just watch from a distance.

Stay out of my way.

No one's going to be mad.

Just tell me your name.

She's going to have to stay Jane Doe for
a while yet.

Mom, I didn't know.

How long until she's able to talk?

I said she should wear off in about
eight hours.

Try again then.

Don't be mad at me.

Larry Miller and Vicki Gioberti.

G -I -O -B -E -R -T -I.

No. T .I. T .I.

Yes.

They would have arrived in Hawaii about
two days ago.

Yes.

Okay.

Thanks anyway.

Problems?

No.

Nothing I can't handle.

Poor guy.

He spent half the day calling every
hotel in Hawaii trying to locate his

I'm not so worried about her. It's him.

He won't talk to me. He has no interest
in this work.

Chase, you know, my pregnancy came as a
surprise to Cole, but your decision to

go into business with Tony Cumson came
as a shock to him.

Your pregnancy is our problem. The deal
with Tony makes perfect sense if we want

to expand.

Cole's smart enough to understand that.
Honey, your son is a very strong

-willed, incredibly independent young
man.

Not unlike his father.

You make that sound like a curse.

Well, you know, one day you guys are
going to have to recognize the fact that

there's probably room for only one
strong -willed, incredibly independent

Get out of here.

Not to mention female.

He's obnoxious, conceited, and he's
dangerous.

And those are his good points.

People would think that Dan Fix was
Angela's grandson and you were the

What is she trying to prove by keeping
him at the spa?

That she's in control, that I work for
her, and that she knows more than

else.

She doesn't.

What are you going to do about it?

I'm going to prove to Grandmother, Dan
Fix, my old man, or anybody else that

cares to pay attention that I'm through
being jerked around.

And I'll have my very own ringside seat.

I just love it when you take and trot.

Take until now.

I'd love to.

But I have some thinking to do.

See you later, darling.

By 0600 tomorrow, I plant the charges on
the bridge Chase crosses no less than a

dozen times a day.

0700, remote detonator in hand. I've
taken my position overlooking said

By 0830, Mr. Chase Giaberti is little
more than an unpleasant memory.

The authorities complete their
examination of the murder site by 1400

By 1900 hours, my apartment has been
through forensics, but the armed and

considered dangerous Miss Jones is
nowhere to be found.

At 600 the next day, I'm setting sail
for Rio, where I anxiously await the

arrival of my husband and fellow
conspirator. Absolutely foolproof, Miss

But let's not forget the best part.

You mean there's more?

Ever mindful of the dreaded double
cross, the always careful Miss Jones has

protected her cute little flank.

In the hands of a trusted friend, she's
left the key to a safe deposit box full

of evidence incriminating her fellow
conspirators.

The end.

No, no, not yet, Miss Jones, not yet.

Encore.

Encore, encore.

Were you expecting someone?

Eventually.

You really ought to get one of these.

They're great for keeping books in their
place, too.

Well, I didn't mean to frighten you.

Then there must be some other reason
you're in my house.

Angela's guest house.

It's the same thing.

Well, we almost got things going a
couple of times when we were kids, you

If we try real hard, I bet we can come
up with a better way to spend your time

than making Lance's life miserable,
don't you think?

Probably.

Yeah. Before we get into that, tell me
something.

Anything.

Is Lance really so threatened he'd send
you here to take me to bed?

Lance doesn't know I'm here.

He will after I tell him.

He'd kill you.

I can live with that.

Who the hell do you think you are, Dan
Fix?

For whatever game Angela's playing with
you, you can never replace Lance.

Save it for someone who cares, Melissa.

You can't blackmail me and you can't
make me fall in love with you. All I

is a hot shower and a good night.

Hey, do me a favor.

Don't let anyone see you leaving, okay?

I've got a reputation to protect.

No!

Why that?

No, I have to warn my mother.

You have plenty of time for that right
now. You need your rep.

Please, listen to me.

It was Jeff Wainwright.

I killed my mother.

Our private detectives have proved
positive that Aaron Jones was

the attempt on Chase's life.

I suggest you save your defense for your
trial. I'm going to be saving it for

Chase's funeral if you don't get your
butt out of that chair.

Now, listen to me.

I have every reason to believe that she
is going to be making another attempt on

his life this morning.

If you're crying wolf, Channing...
Gilmore.

Oh,

my God.

What? Are we too late?

Is it about Aaron Jones?

Worse, it's Wainwright.

Damn, Gia Verde's alliance is busy. I've
got to get out of here.

Keep trying the Gia Verde house. Have
the operator break in if he has to. Find

out what unit's in the area and get it
over there. I'm rolling.

I'm going with you.

My brother's still in danger, too.

inventory today to probably give us a
chance to talk.

Maggie, open the door.

Maggie, honey, open the door.

I'm not going to hurt you, Maggie. Just
open the door. I'm going to kick it in.

Is this any way to treat the father of
your

child?

care of lives.

Hello, Chase.

Bye -bye, Chase.

It's a long drive to Carmel. If that's
all we'd like to get down there and see

Vicki. Right, I'll let you know if
anything else is needed. Sheriff,

trace of the Jones woman.

Forensics are still tossing the
apartment, but there's no doubt the

guilty as hell.

Right, okay, spread the word. Get the
DA's office involved.

Looks like you're off the hook, Richard.

Don't tell me, Sheriff.

Tell my brother.

Don't jump for joy, Chase.

I know you care.

Just a little bit of change. Hello,
Cindy. Love your hair.

I've been waiting to see you all day,
Mr. Channing.

Name's Fix.

Dan Fix. I told him that you had a full
schedule, but he insisted on waiting.

We got some business to discuss.

Cindy, would you call security and ask
them to come up here and

handle a problem for me?

Would the security who I talk to about
advertising?

It seems to me you know how to print the
kind of trash that sells newspapers.

I figured this was the perfect rag for
some spa ads.

Buying ads.

That's one of my jobs as assistant
manager.

Oh, assistant manager. Now, it seems I
recall you were just a waiter a couple

weeks ago. Cindy, would you direct Mr.
Fix to our advertising department?

By the way, Mr. Channing, when we have
other business to discuss, and we will,

security still won't be any help.

threatens newspaper publisher.

Is he really dead?

You don't have anything to worry about.
You're okay, baby. You're okay.

Mom, I was so terrible.

I know.

I know.

I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

You should be settling down now.

Me? Maybe you'll get through this okay.

Yeah.

Of course, we have some accounts to
settle.

Which accounts are those?

Tony Thompson. You, me.

There's nothing to settle.

I thought about it.

It makes perfect sense to bring Tony
into the operation. He's a good guy.

That's what he's doing.

Probably won't stab you in the back.

Us, Cole. Always us.

This deal was never meant to come
between you and me.

I know that.

Things have been kind of stressed out
lately.

Signals have gotten a little crossed.

A little?

I've been ignoring Joseph.

Any problem if he and I disappear for a
couple days?

Get to know each other again?

I think that's a good idea.

Maybe we could do the same thing
sometime.

We're an hour behind schedule. Either
you talk to the captain of this bucket

I do.

Mr. Channing says wait.

We're waiting.

Perfect day for a cruise.

Sweet of you to see me off, but there's
no time. As they say, the ship is

sailing.

What's wrong?

Haven't you read this morning's paper?

Of course not. I've been on the move,
staying out of sight.

Hey, I was there, remember?

I know the story. I don't think you do.

Jeff Wainwright was driving the truck
you blew up.

You killed the wrong man, Miss Jones.

I don't get it.

I don't get it. I know. I suppose that's
the beauty of it.

You see, Miss Jones...

And it still is, Miss Jones, since we
were never really married.

Richard. I've known all along you were
the one responsible for the first

on Chase's life.

The trick, of course, was getting the
authorities to believe it.

I don't like what I'm hearing, Richard.

I don't like being framed.

I didn't have any other choice. Sure you
did. We all have choices.

I'm making one right now.

Those two gentlemen will be accompanying
you on your voyage.

Only you won't be getting off in Rio.

You're going on to Borneo.

Somehow I think it's only fitting that
you spend the rest of your life in the

land of the headhunters.

Got it all planned out, don't you?

Except for one small point.

My safety deposit box is tying you to
everything.

If my friend doesn't hear I'm safe and
sound in Rio, he's going to hand -carry

that stuff to the cops.

Dancer?

I brought your friend along to say bon
voyage.

Why, Dancer?

Business, Erin.

Nothing personal.

It's not too late, Richard.

You and I, we can make things work.

There can be something special between
us.

Take her below.

Easy with her.

You haven't seen the last of me,
Channing.

Send Junior in.

This place looks a lot different than
since I sat behind that desk.

I guess I owe my decorator a huge debt
of gratitude.

I don't like you any more than you like
me, Richard, all right?

You could have phoned that in.

I came because I want things to be up
front between us.

That's admirable.

There must be a reason for this
outpouring of honesty.

Yeah, there is. I've been doing a lot of
thinking.

And I keep coming to the same
conclusion.

If we're clever, we could serve each
other well.

Why on earth would we want to do that?

Because we'll never get what we want or
what we deserve unless...

we work.

Convince me.

I won't accept this.

It's not up to you, Grandmother.

I need you at the spa.

You don't, and you know it. I'm turning
the Tuscany Downs into vineyards again,

and I have plans for you.

Well, I have other plans. You're going
to have to get along without me.

I won't have you working for Richard
Channing.

With Richard.

As assistant publisher of the New Globe.

With, for, what's the difference?

I intend to make a significant
contribution to journalism.

Why don't you start your own paper?

I don't have to. I own stock in the New
Globe.

Richard does not belong to this family.
And if you work for him, you won't

belong to it either.

Excuse me, Grandmother, but I haven't
since Dan Fix came back. Oh, Dan Fix has

nothing to do with it. Dan Fix has
everything to do with it.

It's been Dan Fix over me all the way.

You've made your choice.

Live with it.

Lance.

We have to talk.

I'm through talking. You want to talk?
Talk to Fix.

You and he speak the same language.

Her name is Erin Jones.

She was due in Rio three days ago.

No. No message. Thank you.
