All language subtitles for Falcon Crest s09e03 Flesh & Blood

Previously on Falcon Girl. Death, the
morning of yours.

The big wave of time.

Back off.

Bad Michael.

He buried you.

You're not taking my children anywhere.

These gentlemen are here to assist.

We are going to take your children now,
Mr. Channing. You get out of here. I'm

just a bloody pet, aren't I? He's going
to hurt you.

He's going to hurt all of us.

Have some champagne.

I prefer mine in a glass. What else is
the matter with you?

Get away from me, Charlie.

Oh, I get it.

You're ticked off.

You're three hours late.

The first hour, I thought, Charlie's
late, as usual. The second hour, I

something's wrong. I'll hear from him.

But I know what you're up to. You are
chasing every girl within a 15 -mile

radius. I wish I got off as much skirt
as you thought I did.

Oh!

Come here. Look, I'm only joking. I'm
sorry.

Come. Come and sit down.

I've only just got here and now you're
going to leave?

What? Don't I even get a trial?

Well, my guilty is charged.

All right.

What is tonight's fairy tale?

Cinderella. I was like that prince out
there, searching, you know.

Well, he couldn't find what he wanted
the first time.

It took me a while to find...
perfection.

I had to drive all the way down to the
city to find this.

I would have called you, but it would
have spoiled the surprise.

Oh, you don't believe me. Well, that's
cool.

Just do me a favor, okay?

Take that with you when you leave.

I think you'll like it.

It's a lonesome in Tuscany town.

Everybody's got me down.

I'm a face without a name. Don't think
that you can buy your way back to

my good graces.

Take a good look around you.

Don't you think that I have always had
everything I have ever wanted?

Not important to me.

Don't keep me waiting, Charlie.

Don't make me wonder where you are or
what you're doing.

Houston.

You like them, don't you?

I love them, Charlie.

They're just like the ones my mother has
from India.

Now you won't have to wait until she
dies.

You've got some of your very own.

Mrs. Charney?

Mrs. Charney!

You can bottle enough wine to fill the
bay out there, but without proper

distribution, you're out of business.
You're on the back shelf of some 7

next to the Stridex pads.

We know that, Dad. You don't have to
sell us.

We're here basically to renew our
relationship for the coming season.

Oh, there's nothing to renew.

My relationship is with Angela, not you.

I only discuss contracts with her.

Well, then why did you agree to meet
with us in the first place?

I never turn down an invitation to meet
with a beautiful woman, even when her

husband's around.

Oh, Mr. Vogel.

Both Lance and I have been hands -on in
the daily operation of Falcon Crest for

an awfully long time now.

Now, sure, Angela has been overseeing
everything, but...

Supply has met distribution without
fail. And that's because we've been

every step of the way.

Please, call me Ned.

Of course, Ned, we do understand that
this business is built on relationships

and trust.

Give us a chance.

Come down to the winery and watch us in
action.

See us up close.

I think I may like that.

Telephone call for Mr. Compson. It's
urgent.

Can use my phone on the desk there.

Glenn.

Dr. Cochran?

No,

I know.

It was a perfect call for you. I went in
there myself and I was all worried.

I got the green.

Yeah. Sure.

Angela Channing, where is she?

There was a yellow one, but I don't
think it was any good on me.

No. Let me ask you again. Where is
Angela Channing? In emergency.

The waiting room is down the hall.

You won't believe what just went on
here.

She lost?

We don't know.

What happened?

Charlie found her this morning. She was
unconscious. We just don't know whether

it was a heart attack or what.

Glad I was able to reach you. Me too,
thanks.

Who's the next of kin here?

I'm her son.

I'm her husband.

We're all family here. Just wait a
minute, will you?

I'm sorry. What's the diagnosis?

Miss Channing slipped into a coma last
night.

And we've checked all her vital signs.

Her heart is fine. She's not suffering a
stroke.

For some reason, there was a lack of
oxygen to the brain.

Our feeling now is that it was an
embolism.

Butt clot.

What does that mean, Doc?

If we ever hooked up to a life support
system, we'll be watching her very, very

carefully. And if you could, I'd like
you all to stay close.

We may have to make some very difficult
decisions in the next 24 hours.

Angela Gioberti. Sally.

You know what?

I want to come back tomorrow.

And they said, no, you have to wait.

It happened to me every time I was ever
there.

Yeah, I told them.

I got to go.

Is there anything I can do for you, sir?

Be careful.

No, seriously.

I'm involved in a family tragedy here,
and I was wondering if perhaps you could

help me out.

If I can, I will.

I like your attitude.

Tell me, how do these life support
systems work anyway? I mean, life

Big words, know what I mean?

I'd hate to think that a power blackout
could send Grammy to kingdom come

without a fighting chance, so to speak,
if you catch my drift. No, no, no. They

all feed off backup generators.

Well, here in the hospital. Down in the
basement.

Oh.

Thank you.

You make me feel so much better.

What is your name?

Natalie.

Thank you.

Nurse Natalie.

What about the bailiff?

Well, we couldn't find him either.
You're kidding me. According to the

just left for a two -week vacation. I
tried him at his house, and he's not

there.

You know, the most damaging witness here
is your own nanny.

We can't even find her.

That's terrific.

I let Maggie hire her because she
couldn't get along with Garth.

Julius, what's going on here? Every name
on that quarter, every witness is

suddenly unreachable.

I mean, something's not right. Don't
start seeing conspiracies, Richard.

got to be an explanation.

I'm sure there is.

What about the shelter where they've
been placed?

Where is it?

Well, only Judge Stewart can give out
that information. Yeah, let me guess.

in the Bahamas.

Alaska.

Look, not to worry. I know his
secretary.

We'll find it.

Nothing I can do here. Let's go.

Shred it. Shred all of it. Those weasels
from the SEC are going to be there any

second. Should we make coffees and sneak
them out of here? Where? In your

underwear? Forget it.

Right. You can't shred them fast enough.
Burn them. The building goes up in

flames. I don't care. I want everything
destroyed.

Richard Channing is not going to nail my
butt. Conduct nothing here.

Yes, Michael.

Has there been any more subpoenas?

Oh, yeah. The processors are lined up
out in the hall waiting for you to show

up. It looks like a damn parade out
there. Let them wait.

Michael, as your lawyer, I can't be
privy to this type of conduct.

Then I suggest you step into the other
room.

These people don't give up. I can't step
into a public toilet without the

attendant handing me a subpoena.

Where is this dog pound?

I talked to the contract.

He said the gymnasium will be ready by
the end of summer.

It was a very generous gesture, Mr.
Sharp.

Not a gesture at all.

Our children are the future. We live on
through them, don't we?

How are the boys?

Richard Channing's children are fine.

They're ready to be relocated to the
family you've requested.

I'll say it again to you, Stan.

They are never to know that I am behind
this.

Well, if they find out, it won't be from
me.

Good.

I just want you to know that it's only
because we're so deprived of funding...

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Just play it close, Stan.

And remember, contact me and only me in
regards to this.

Who is this family you chose, Mr. Sharp?

Yes, Mr. West.

We are.

Yes, we're waiting.

Great.

They're going to be here in 20 minutes.

Hold me.

Tell me you want this as much as I do,
Walker.

I can't.

I can't want it as much as you do,
Warren.

I want it.

I'm here.

You know, when we first put in to adopt,
I was just going through the motions.

I know, so was I.

But honey, we were told it might take
two years to get kids.

So it was never real.

But then, after a month, to get the
phone call and realize that we have

two little boys coming to live with us.

That's a lot to get straight.

Just that I feel like I'm still in
mourning.

And here we are starting another family.

I don't know if I'm ready.

These two boys are not here to replace
Stephen and John.

No one can do that.

It's just that there are so many lonely,
needy children out in the world, and we

have so much to give.

I know it sounds selfish, but it's all I
think about.

How good it's going to feel to go to the
market and buy a box of cereal, to tuck

them in at night and tell them a story,
to take them to a matinee.

I want this for myself as much as for
them.

Sometimes I worry you want it too much.

Let's ease into this.

Okay.

I'm sorry, gentlemen. I'm just not
empowered to give out any information

the children.

All right, look.

Could I just see them to make sure
they're all right? I can assure you, Mr.

Channing, They've been put in the best
of care. What does that mean?

Well, they've been placed with a family.

What? That's kind of record time, isn't
it?

Relocations take months, sometimes
years.

Well, I guess we were just lucky in this
case. You guess?

We're talking about my children.

I don't know what to tell you,
gentlemen.

I hope you guys don't mind sharing a
room.

We can fix it up any way you like.

Walker's a carpenter.

You guys like building things?

Well, I built these bunk beds here just
for you two.

Now, if you don't like them, they're
adjustable. I can put them right next to

each other.

In our real house, our room was bigger.

Yeah.

Who likes pizza?

Michael!

Michael!

Michael!

Michael!

Kevin,

can I trust you to stay here for a
minute by yourself?

I'm scared. I'll be right back. I'm
going in the backyard. You can watch me.

Michael Come on,

please You

know

something sometimes I feel like running
away, but there's no place to go

Walker and I are just as scared as you
and Kevin.

This is difficult for all of us.

But we all want the same thing.

To be happy.

I just want my mom and dad.

I didn't take you away from your mom and
dad.

Someone else made that decision.

Well, you know, it stinks.

You know something?

You're right.

It does stink.

It stinks. worse than the worst stink
bomb.

Worse than the stinkiest pair of sweat
socks.

Worse than the smelliest garbage can.

Ooh, that bad?

It's pretty bad.

You hungry?

I guess.

What do you mean you guess? I mean,
either you are or you aren't.

I'm hungry.

Tell you what, why don't you lock up and
I'll see you tomorrow, okay?

Yeah.

I'll let you know.

Okay.

Everything okay?

I'm just trying to keep everybody calm
at the winery. If you need any help, I'm

here. That's what Angie wanted.

Well, like I told Angela, Frank, I can
handle this.

Yeah, I'm just letting you know I told
her the same thing.

You're all the faith in the world in
here, buddy.

Thanks. I'm sorry.

There's a lot of stuff going on.

Frank? Yeah?

Did Angela ever talk to you about Ned
Vogel?

The distributor?

Mm -hmm.

Yeah, I know him.

Why?

Well, our contract with him is coming up
for renewal, and he's giving us a

terribly hard time.

He stole Vogel. Let's get through this
first.

We can't, Frank. We have to make this
distribution deal now. If we don't,

dead. Want me to talk to him? No.

Uh, not just Jet.

I wonder where Charlie is.

Oh!

Hey. I know.

Respirator's out. CPR.

Right away. Here, give me some.

Go ahead and focus, too. Damn. Back up.

Here you go. All right.

Epinephrine, one milligram IV.

Right away, doctor.

Here you go. Get a head on. Sodium
bicarb, 75 IV.

Yes, doctor.

What the hell was all that about?

How are you?

I was in the can.

Everybody all right?

Let's hope they don't have the backup
for the life support system. That's all.

Usually we do.

However, this time the backup generator
was also down.

She went too long without breathing.

What? He's dead.

We can keep her breathing, but I see
little possibility of her coming out of

this now.

Wait a minute.

Are you telling us to pull the plug?

That is an option you should seriously
consider.

Oh, come on, Mike.

God, we can't... What... What would
Angie want?

My grandmother always avoided a fight.
She didn't think she could win.

She wouldn't want to just fly there like
a vegetable.

Now, look.

Maybe I'm speaking out of turn here.

But we are talking about a human life.

I mean, I didn't know Angela very long,
but I knew her long enough to know that

she was a fighter.

Let's give her a fighting chance.

Charlie's right. Let's give Mother a
chance.

In my opinion, the condition's not going
to change.

I suggest you all take a few days and
think it over.

Ned, please, you can't cut us off now.

You gotta stick with us through this.

I'm not asking on a personal level, Ned.
It's business as usual here, I promise.

Look, maybe if we had this conversation
yesterday, you could convince me, but

the situation's gotten worse. Angela may
not be coming back at all.

Bless her soul.

Let's hope I'm wrong.

Ned, look, you said it yourself. This
business is a business based on

relationships, right?

Let me come in and meet with you again,
face to face.

I got some numbers I can go over with
you.

It's a waste of time.

Ned, we've been doing business for over
ten years together.

All I'm asking is for 20 minutes. 20
minutes of your time.

Okay. Okay. Call my secretary. She'll
set up an appointment.

Thanks, Ned.

What do you think?

I don't get this guy. Why is he busting
my chops like this?

He's a bottom -line player, Lance. He
always has been. So we had a bad season

last year. We'll make up for it this
year. Same as every other business.

What have you done lately?

I don't even know what I'm going to tell
him.

This is it, you know?

It'll work out.

Charlie.

Angela is a tough lady.

Don't count her out.

When I was little boy, Angela defended
me.

When she became Mrs. Channing, I served
her.

Now she doesn't come back.

The last thing Angela would want is for
us to fall apart.

We have to be strong.

Listen,

Charlie, when Lance gets back, tell him
I've gone into the city to do some

shopping. And I'll be back after dinner,
all right? I'll tell him. Thank you.

I wonder how many husbands have heard
those immortal words.

Gone shopping, won't be back till later.

You should be put on a leash. Anytime,
sweetheart.

Give my regards to your boyfriend.

Listen.

I don't know what you've done to Emma,
but the rest of us see right through

And she will, too.

Sooner or later.

You're absolutely right.

And that was uncalled for.

Please. Please accept my sincere
apologies.

Could I ask you, though, one little
question before you leave?

This guy you're seeing, is he my height?
A bit taller?

Oh, he's a short guy?

Oh, you've got to watch them little
fellas.

You, uh, wanted to talk to me?

Not really.

Let's get this over with.

Hold all my calls, Judy.

Yes, Mr. Vogel.

Honey, I'm going to meet with Vogel.
What can you ask?

Of course I wish you luck, you know
that?

What's wrong?

Are you crying?

No, I just got some soap in my eyes,
that's all.

I don't even want to think about what's
rotting on this meeting.

You think I'll get through to the guy?

You're gonna do just fine.

Well, see you later.

She said it was just another room.

Then why does she keep it locked?

Maybe there's something in there.

Why don't we get that ladder from the
garage?

What if we get caught?

What are they going to do, send us home?

Come on, let's go!

I didn't want you in here and I meant
it.

Wait.

I'm not mad.

Honest, I'm not.

But this room was locked for a reason.

We're sorry.

I'm sorry, too.

I shouldn't have yelled.

I had two children of my own once.

Not that you're not my own, but they
happened to come first.

And I loved them very much.

And this was their room.

They died in an accident.

And I was very sad.

And maybe it's silly, but I wanted to
keep this room just the way...

I'm sorry I'm not making much sense,
Emma.

Our mom died.

Then you know exactly what I'm talking
about.

I shouldn't be doing this.

Oh, God.

You know, I'm getting a little sick of
you trying to decide what you should or

shouldn't be doing.

I mean, do you want to play the poor
little rich girl for the rest of your

Or do you want to grow up?

Give me a break. My mother is in the
hospital.

Dying. And you know where you should be?

On your feet, getting this place
together.

You're the one who should be running
Falcon Crest, not our bozo nephew of

Me?

Yeah, you.

Listen, I've been assessing the players
here.

And I've realised that there's one
ingredient you've got that they don't.

A sick boyfriend named Charlie.

Not quite, love.

A soul, Emma.

Listen to me.

Do you read your ancient history?

Claudius was a fool, a stutterer.

Caesar, Tiberius, Caligula, none of them
took him seriously.

He took over Rome and cleaned up after
their mess.

That's you, baby.

Do you really think so?

I'm going to go and point Percy at the
porcelain.

Hey, cowboy.

Why don't you show a little respect?

You don't walk around this house like
that.

What did Vogel say?

No deal.

What do you mean, no deal?

It's like I said, honey, no deal.

Did he give a reason?

This doesn't make sense.

It's over.

It's it.

Of course, the impact on your operating
leverage should put you in.

I ought to claw your eyes out. Oh,
Pilar, you know the Otis brothers? They

a winery. We had a deal. Ned, do you
need us to call security?

Oh, no, no, no. I'll tell you what. Why
don't you all go out there and have some

coffee? I'll be with you in a minute,
okay?

Thanks a lot, guys.

You spunky little jalapeno, don't you
walk in here like that.

Why'd you turn Lance down?

posture, honey.

It's a common business practice.

I'll make the deal, but I'll make the
best deal possible.

What's that supposed to mean? Oh, it's
very simple.

You see, I have a real vicious sweet
tooth.

One bite of candy isn't enough. I need
the whole box.

So like my arrangement with your
husband, yours and mine will be ongoing.

Now, uh,

Why don't you go out there and wait?
I'll be through with this meeting in

an hour.

Then you and I can start.

I'm filing rape charges against you.

And I don't give a damn who finds out.

Hey, hey, come on, wait a minute. Hey,
Pilar, come on.

Let's not lose our sense of humor here.

I was only kidding.

Baby! Just met with Vogel again and we
made the deal.

I did it, honey.

I did it. I knew I could do it. I knew I
could pull this thing off. You should

have seen me, honey. I was beautiful.

I was in control. A deal maker.

Oh, honey.

I am so happy for you. For us. For us,
we are. We're on our way.

We're a team.

I thought someone was in here.

Oh, hi, Pilar.

Hi.

You all right?

I hate going to that hospital. It's so
cold and clinical.

At least here I still feel Mother's
presence.

I can't believe it.

Angela seemed fine the other night.

Hey, are you going to stay here for
good?

I don't know. My life is such a mess.

As usual.

Can I ask you something, Emma?

What is it with you and Charlie?

How can I explain it to you when I don't
even understand it myself?

I love him.

And I hate him.

He scares me.

Get him out of here.

Tell him to leave.

At least until this thing is resolved
with Angela.

You're right.

I'm going through too much right now.

Just make it clear you need some time
alone.

I will.

What's going on here, then?

A hen party?

Can they join in?

I'll leave you two alone.

Charlie, don't bring those things in
here.

As you wish.

I have something I need to talk to you
about.

I'm sorry I didn't call you this
morning, but I went straight over to the

hospital to visit your mother.

You did?

Yeah. I get so angry and frustrated
thinking about that poor woman.

Well, I just had to get out of there,
you know.

Go shoot some birds.

Hope you don't mind.

Oh, Charlie.

What do you want to talk to me about,
Em?

Nothing.

I'm just so glad you're here.

You've had one hell of a year. It's not
over yet.

This thing with my boys.

Caught me off guard.

You're a lot of things, Dickie.

And I've called you all of them
throughout the years.

But you're a good father.

You should never have taken the poison.

Are you wondering why I wanted to meet
with you?

You need a job, don't you?

It's funny.

Me coming to you.

Yeah.

When was it that you and Sharp edged me
out of the big... Don't ruin my lunch.

He's not exactly in love with you
either.

You know, after all this time and after
everything I've done, I don't have a

right to ask you for anything.

But, um...

If you have something for me.

I don't hold a grudge. No money in it.

Let me see what I can do.

My tennis elbow went away. All of a
sudden, I get this pain in my shoulder.

You doing anything athletic, Dickie?

I run to the federal court every couple
of days.

That's Judge Stewart with Sharp.

Sure. They make one hell of a doubles
team.

That's not the only game they're
playing.

What do you mean?

Judge Stewart is the one who signed the
court order taking my boys from me. My

boys, my flesh and blood.

I'll see you later, Jason.

It's one thing after another.

It doesn't stop. The SEC, the subpoenas,
buyers and sellers running for the

hills. My lawyer's bleeding me dry.
Michael, stop talking about it.

Stop thinking about it.

Drink your cognac.

Take the day off for five minutes. I
can't. If I stop, the world spins off

axis. Let it spin.

Could be a fun ride.

Where would I be without you?

What was your name again?

Celeste. Where would I be without you,
Celeste?

Probably with Candace or Denise or Lola.

Let him in, will you, Annie?

for the stocks for the Swiss account?

We couldn't. What do you mean, we
couldn't?

The FTC blocked it, Michael.

Every single share of every stock, every
bond, every bank account has been

frozen by the Justice Department.

How the hell can they do that? Under
RICO.

Forget RICO. I can't buy, I can't sell.
I'm sitting on $700 million and I can't

move it? What else you got?

I, um, I had lunch with some people
today.

One of the things we chatted about,
Falcon Crest.

Seems like Richard Channing's family
empire is drier than their white wines.

And he can't afford to save it.

Much as he would like to.

Give me all the numbers on it.

What's this, a bill?

Sorry, Michael.

Can you believe this?

They got hookers delivering subpoenas.

Like a babysitter?

You had the judge rail on this thing.

Prison really boosted your fantasy life,
didn't it?

Here's how it is, Michael.

It's real primal, just between you and
me.

And I don't have anything to live for
except those boys.

Give them to me, or so help me God, I'll
rip your lungs out with my bare hands.

You do what you have to do.

I will.

Maggie. God, I want to tell you all the
things I never got to tell you.

I don't know how I'm going to do this
without you.

I'll keep all my promises to you.

And the boys.

I'll take good care of them.

I've come every day.

I know.

The best part.

Our dad tried to cook for us.

It wasn't too good, but he tried.

What's your dad like?

He's the best.

What's his name?

Richard Channing.

Richard Channing?

The man who just got out of prison?

Yep.

It wasn't his fault. That's why he got
out.

How's everybody doing?

Chocolate chip cookies.

Saved me a dozen of those.

Great.

Honey, could you take over for a while?

I have to go out for a bit.

Yeah. Okay, so it's the guys in the
kitchen.

Where do we start?

Great.

So do you, my dear.

It's been a long time, Lauren.

How's life treating you?

Oh, I'm a little confused.

How can I help?

I want you to set a precedent.

I want you to tell me the truth.

Now I remember why we haven't spoken in
two years. It's been five.

Great. When I need an adding machine,
I'll give you a call.

Why do I have Richard Channing's
children?

I didn't know that you did.

But then again, I don't know anything
about your life anymore.

Maybe the court felt that since you were
a distant relation to Maggie, you were

the right choice.

Michael, please.

My life has been hell, and I don't want
to feel any more pain again.

Then enjoy these kids and quit
agonizing. I've got to know, did you

anything to do with me getting those
children? Lauren... Because if you

can't keep them.

I can't get attached to them and bear to
have them taken away from me.

Tell me the truth.

On Papa's grave, I swear to you, I had
nothing to do with those kids being sent

to you.

But...

I'm glad you've got them.

Next on Falcon Crest. I've missed you.

You must be out of your mind to come
here. We're calling the loan.

Where am I going to find $20 million in

Sheriff's become an obsession with you,
Richard. You're damn right.

Where did you get this ring?

Don't give me that bull about your dear

Give it to me.

I know what you want, and you can have
it. Then I'll tell you what I want.
