Previously on Falcon Dressed.

I'd like to introduce you to my brother, Mr. Ian St. James, and his little

flower bride, Sydney.

What do you mean he's going to help us run the business?

Let's go!

Let's go!

Say goodnight, Lance.

You're fired!

I never thought I'd be thanking you, Michael.

Sending the boys to Lauren is the best thing you could have ever done for me.

What am I going to do? What am I going to do?

You're in danger.

You close the Bateman deal?

Can't. We're tied up in litigation.

I thought we settled all that. You did.

You settled with the government.

Now everybody that ever shook hands with you wants a piece of you.

The only reason you didn't get fined more money is that Diodati wanted to

something for the vultures.

At least close the Bateman deal.

We, uh, we already lost it.

To who?

Let me guess.

The minute we hesitated, Channing stepped in. Why did we hesitate?

Michael, look at your calendar. We're in court every day.

Depositions and derogatories appealed.

This isn't happening.

Yeah?

Gary Exley from American Express on line one.

Gary Exley.

Didn't we talk to them last year about buying their software division?

We can get something going here.

Gary, you ready to deal?

I don't believe we've met, Mr. Sharp, and I don't know what deal you're

about. I'm calling in regards to your bill.

What the hell are you talking about?

You're taking a vacation?

I'm cashing out, Michael.

All the way.

I'm going back to New York.

Alone.

No, you're not.

Take a look. It's all here.

What? We don't talk anymore?

I can't even get through to your switchboard, Michael.

And forget trying to talk to you at home.

You're gone by four in the morning, and at night you're glued to the phone

talking to overseas while we're trying to have dinner. Savannah, please.

I'll take the afternoon off. We'll take a long lunch and get everything

straightened out.

Are you really that out of it?

Look, we never starred in the greatest love story ever told, but we understood

each other.

We shared a vision of what our life could be together.

I never promised there wouldn't be a few bumps along the way.

Excuse me, but you're a criminal.

That wasn't the shared vision.

Channing's testimony is more than a bump in the road. It's the end.

So basically you've made a business decision. I'm being strangled by the SEC

you're heading for the tall grass and taking everything I own with you.

You've got it.

I taught you well.

Let's get that to work.

Let's start with the upstairs.

Get out of here.

What?

The door. Out.

Catch a ride with her attorney. You guys can compare bills.

You believe in the golden rule, Nick?

What's that?

An eye for an eye.

Hell yeah.

I believe in that.

Me too.

Roast the dough with your partners.

Good, nothing to it. Ah, good morning, ma 'am.

How are you this morning?

Care for a spin?

Off we go.

You know, I've been thinking.

We've done our Roman thing. Now it's time to go completely wet.

Hoedowns, campfires, hayrides, and square dancing. I'm not interested.

Who put a bug up your high street? Come here, I want to show you something.

And do -si -do, your partners.

Sergio. Yes, sir. Sergio, come here. I want to introduce you. Charlie, who are

these people?

They're decorators, my love.

They're what?

Well, if we're going to live here, it's got to reflect who we are.

The statement we're trying to make, right? But, Charlie.

Shh. Just show her. Show her.

What do you think?

Charlie, I... I don't feel well.

What, you don't like it?

No, I don't. Well, I do.

I think it's perfect.

But if you don't want to help, that's fine.

Carry on, Sergio.

Mel, please, don't overreact.

Yes, yes, it did get out of hand.

No, things are not out of control.

Look, Charlie and Ian are good guys.

I'm still in charge of the winery, Mel.

Don't worry. Things are going to go out on schedule.

Okay. Bye -bye.

Emma, you look awful.

Are you all right? No.

I'm worried.

Have I let you down? Have I let everybody down? I mean, what will Mother

I just feel like I am falling apart.

Whoa. Wait a minute.

What's this all about?

Have we lost Falcon Crest? No.

Emma, the judge put you in charge.

Charlie and Ian work for you.

Don't forget that.

Right.

Now, I might need your help.

Can I count on you two? Of course.

So, what do you want?

I wanted to go over some of those accounts receivable with you.

Oh.

Well, then.

Excuse me.

New ones are on top.

diapers for?

Diapers are expensive.

What are you going to use a bathroom like people?

Hey, Lewis, don't shoot him with that hammer. That's a good hammer.

We don't want any. We don't got any.

Hey, hey, hey, don't fall down, huh? Don't fall.

Mr. Sheriff, how nice of you to stop by.

We gotta talk.

Is something wrong?

Remember a while ago I asked you to take care of something for me and never got

taken care of?

No, not really.

Hey, get out of here. Go play in the street.

Shalom!

Hey, honey, come here. I want you to meet a friend of mine. I ain't got time

meet your friends. I gotta get to work.

Did you feed the kids?

No, honey. Hey, say hi to Mr. Sharp. Yeah.

Hi. You're in trouble.

But I...

Richard Channing.

Oh, yeah.

Finish the job.

Kind of heavy, Mr. Sharp. I'm not really into that kind of stuff anymore.

I want Channing dead.

Think about it.

So what have you been doing since you got out?

I'm starting to take life seriously, Charlie.

Taking a few night classes, educating my mind.

What for?

Hey, I'm just thinking about it, all right?

So where's Doberman? Why can't she be doing this? Hey, man, you're talking

my wife.

I know.

I introduced you to her.

I used to date her once, remember?

Nice girl.

Lovely. Does she still get food stuck in her teeth?

She's a good woman, man. She brought me a long way.

Okay, okay. Peace, love, Phil Donahue.

Hey, this might not be what you're into, but I got a gig for you.

Three days, two nights, all expenses paid.

And the crowd's familiar.

I have my schedule permits.

Remember that guy from prison?

He hit you and screwed up?

Richard Shannon?

Yeah. Man wants him dead real bad.

I know you're busy with classes and all, but the man pays good.

Time to step up to the plate.

You tell the man.

Sal's gonna clean the bases.

No,

I worry about, you know, the effect that all this shuffling back and forth is

gonna have on them.

Oh, I worry about that, too.

But with children, there are a million things to worry about.

But we just have to live each moment with him and enjoy each moment.

You just never know.

Why haven't you and your husband had children?

We did. We lost them.

I'm sorry.

It happened a while ago.

A lifetime.

And yet sometimes it feels like it just happened.

I wanted to talk to you one more time about Kevin and Michael to make sure

you're still happy with your decision.

Yes, I am.

I mean, I don't have a whole lot of choice right now, but I am happy.

I think you're terrific.

The children like you.

How's your husband dealing with all this?

He's happy if I am. Well, and you're happy?

It's important to me that you are.

I told Walker I'd be back at nine.

Oh.

Better go.

I'm

glad

we could talk.

Me too.

My van is parked right over there.

Didn't have lunch one day.

Didn't laugh.

No, I didn't.

Thrusting soul. You bet.

You all right?

No.

Hey.

Hey, man.

It's me.

Sal. Yeah?

Sucks.

I can't believe it.

Dr. Dollars. I can't believe this.

I call your office. They say you're down here. I park my car and boom.

What those rasty dudes want anyway.

When did you get out?

Four days ago, doctor.

But I wanted to find you and apologize for what went down in the joint.

You come here to apologize with your friends?

You think I have something to do with this?

Now, that really hurts, man.

Oh, stop.

Hey, I mean it.

If I had something to do with it, you wouldn't be standing right now.

Now, forget it.

Sal, come here.

What do you want?

What do you think I want?

I'm four days out, man.

I'm looking for something to do to keep me out.

I'm looking for a job, man.

Take a look at something.

You know how hard it is to find somebody the perfect gift?

Well, this buddy of mine on the building commission did me a favor. Actually, it

was more than a favor. It was the kind of gesture that requires a brilliant

response, and that's what this is.

After a while, that society found out about this, they do more than take away

zoo privileges.

Isn't she a beauty?

Ah.

I like what you got going here, mister.

I know what statement you're making here with this untamed predator concept.

It's like we's all in a cage.

Dig it?

And only the wild beasts survive in the jungle.

Right?

The meaning does not escape me.

Who is this genius fellow?

Well, hi, Mr. Sharp.

It's great.

Deliver it with my approval.

What the hell are you doing bringing this cheap suit into my office?

Well, he... First of all... Name's Sal Tortina. And we all can't afford Sergio

Armani. Well, believe it or not...

This did cost me a few nickels.

Besides, it's not the clothes that make the man.

It's the man that makes the clothes, right, Charles?

Speaking of which, is that pink?

I mean, real pink?

I love it, but isn't that last year's color?

I am trying real hard not to get angry here.

Mr. Sharp, Sal here wants to talk to you about Richard Channing.

The guy?

You bring him to my office? You dumb, stupid, ignorant... Hey!

Calm down.

Wait till you hear what he has to say.

I understand you're concerned about ignorance.

But you don't have to worry about ignorance with me, Mr. Sharp.

Now, why is there an E at the end of your name? Listen, little life.

Turn around and waltz out of here. We never met.

That's cool.

I just want to let you know Richard Channing offered me a job.

I'm his do -gooder project, which means I'm close to him.

Which means if there's any information you'd like me to get before I whack him,

I'm there for a few bucks.

I'll tell you what I want, little man.

I want the time, the moment.

Right down to the millisecond when his spirit leaves this planet.

You got that?

Why, Mr. Sharp, that's downright poetic.

Now get lost.

Oh, now, now, come on now. Don't worry about it. You look fine. You look

terrific. I find your manners.

Jason. Jason Sampson. Hey, Sal Tortino.

Sal's gonna be working for me. Jase, any partner of Richard is a partner of

mine. Well, great.

Where were you before?

Oh, the South was at a bigger house upstate.

You never heard of it.

Bigger house, that's good, that's good.

Well, if you're working for Richard Channing, you're in good hands.

Take it, Jase. You're in good hands, too.

We should get together.

Have a power brunch sometime.

Uh, right.

Come on in, Sal.

Great carpet. So damn plush.

Better than my bed.

Beautiful secretaries, man.

It's a lifestyle.

No, Sal, it's a job.

You're going to be delivering messages, running errands, whatever's required.

I'm depending on you.

Don't think I don't appreciate it.

Doctor Dollars.

Come here.

Look down there.

You see that?

Yeah. Company car.

All yours.

Get out of here.

You're gonna run errands for me. You're gonna need a car.

Now tell me, do I get to keep this car when it's after hours?

Why not?

Wait a minute.

Are you playing with my mind?

What are you doing all this for?

Because where I come from...

Nobody gives nobody nothing.

Now, relax, will you?

Now, look.

Maybe I'm a fool for believing in you, but I think everybody deserves a second

chance. You got a good mind.

Apply it.

Now, get out of here.

Close the door.

Yeah, boss.

Mama's made up, amigo.

You die.

Hello. Christmas.

Wrong.

I was just in the neighborhood.

Actually,

I bought these the other day and I wanted to drop them off for those two

gorgeous little boys of yours. Oh, very thoughtful of you.

And chocolate chip cookies for you.

What?

Goodness. Did you bake them yourself?

Yes, I did.

Well, in that case, would you like to come in?

Well, not if I'm interrupting you. Please.

They're nothing special, really. I just saw them the other day and thought that

the boys might enjoy them. I'm sure they will.

And I'm sure I'll enjoy these.

It must be hard for them now.

Yeah.

And for you?

What do you do? You, uh, come home alone every night to an empty nest?

Oh, I usually work late.

Oh, these look delicious.

And, uh, you know, I stop off and see the boys, and by the time I get home,

pretty much dead to the world.

You know what you need?

What?

You need a change of pace.

Ah.

Let's liven things up a little.

Would you like a cookie?

Well, you can't blame a girl for trying.

Saved by the bell.

Oh, well, would you like a cup of tea?

Oh, that sounds risky.

Are you sure you can handle it?

I like you, Janelle.

I'll get there as soon as I can.

I, uh, I'm gonna have to go.

I've gotta go.

Something the matter?

Oh, it's, uh, Kevin.

He, uh, misses his daddy.

So I'm gonna run over there.

Then, uh, sure.

You, uh, you probably should go.

Would you like me to wait?

No.

Thank

you.

You're a hell of a challenge, Channing.

Lately? Yes.

Finally.

May I?

Yes.

Oh, boy.

Where's your husband?

He's out.

He's been having some problems.

Lauren, I feel funny because my boys are staying with you, living with you under

the same roof, and I feel like I'm a part of this.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Things aren't going very well with his business.

He works hard, but he's hit a dry spell.

Meaning no money.

But the bills keep coming.

I know a little about that.

Now things will pick up.

It's just a bad time right now.

I would like to help.

I wish you could.

Walker has a lot of pride, and he also has a temper, and if he found out you

were footing any part of the bill, he'd be furious.

Yes, but they're my boys, and they're staying here with you.

I mean, that's an expense.

I'd prefer to help, and you can make me feel a whole lot better about this

situation if you would accept whether or not you tell your husband it's your

business.

You've done well, St. John.

I'm really proud of you.

Beats that old patch of weeds we had back in London, doesn't it, eh?

We can do anything here, you know.

Remember, I'm Caesar.

Yes, but we have to be discreet.

What I want to do is borrow against the winery and its subsidiaries

and then diversify.

Well, more the merrier.

Then sell it all...

And get out.

Get out?

What do you want to get out for, yeah?

It's just a matter of time before the family gangs up on us.

Your wife has already been behind your back.

She met with Lance this morning.

She's a bit of a worrier, isn't she?

Look, don't worry about Emma.

I mean, she just needs a few licks at the strap. I'll sort her out.

You're such a silly sausage, Charlie.

But you're right about Lance.

He is the problem.

At first I was a bit worried, running a multi -million dollar business.

But then it hit me.

What are we really talking about here? We're talking about grapes and we're

talking about bottles, aren't we? You're right.

Lance never understood that.

I think you and I are going to have a much more profitable arrangement.

Well, you know, it's funny you should mention Lance because you've had a

close working relationship with Pilar, I gather.

What are you getting at?

One afternoon I'm sitting at the house, you know, a bit bored.

So I followed Pilar out, see where she was going. Well, she was dressed up, you

know, looking very game.

She ended up outside your office.

Look, I don't know... So I go up there, you know, do a bit of snooping about,

get to know your secretary. Nice girl.

Damned if she don't tell me you've got a video set up in your office.

What do you want?

What do you think I want?

I want that tape.

And I'm willing to pay 25 grand for it.

Why can't I ever go into town with Emma?

I'll take you into town.

You just tell me when.

We're going to stay here long?

Not long, my angel.

Why, aren't you happy here?

I'm happy.

What do you and Emma talk about?

Not much, really.

Does she ask about me and Charlie?

We talk about a lot of different stuff. I mean, different things.

You're not to talk to Emma anymore.

Understand?

And if I find out you have, I shall be very angry.

What if she comes talking to me?

There you are, Simpson.

I've got something to show you.

A masterpiece.

I've been waiting for the right moment.

This is the answer to our lad's problem.

Nature wonderful.

Ian?

What are you doing, honey?

Lance, wait. Lance, please, wait.

Just let me explain.

Explain? Just let me explain. It's not what you think it is. Leave me alone.

Lance, please, I love you. It's not what you think it is.

It's not what you think it is.

I really shouldn't be here. Let's go back, Emma.

Forget it. You're already in trouble. You might as well enjoy it.

Don't worry, Sidney.

I won't let anybody hurt you.

You don't know Ian.

Chris.

How you doing?

You know, I don't remember whether you met Sidney.

Yeah, I think we met.

How are you doing, Sydney?

Fine.

Why don't you two chat?

I'm going to go in and get something.

So, are you really married or were you just kidding around with me the other

day? I wasn't kidding.

Do you have any kids?

No.

How about any sisters?

Sorry.

Well, why are you married?

I mean, like, shouldn't you be, like, dating or in high school?

No, come on. I'm kidding. I'm sorry.

Look, it was really nice meeting you the other day.

And I'm sorry that you're married.

Have a nice life.

Chris?

I'm sorry, too.

Morning, Jason.

Morning. Look, Richard, hey, I have seen Les Miserables, too. I think it's great

to throw a bone to the little guys once in a while. I'm all for that. Don't get

me wrong.

But what is this knife -wielding child molester of surprising humor doing in

office? You're terrible.

It was armed robbery.

Now, look, I'll admit, he makes me laugh.

Ah. Oh, I feel a lot better.

Has he done something wrong?

No, but do we really just want to sit around and wait for that eventuality?

He's a stone -cold sociopath. Look at his eyes.

This whole story's right there.

I see something else.

You know, when I got out of prison, as many people as I knew, I still needed

help, and if it hadn't have been for you, Jason, I wouldn't have made it.

Give him a chance.

Good night.

Good night, Jason.

Sarah's making meatloaf.

If you're into self -abuse, you're welcome to join us. No, thanks.

Give her my best.

Richard Channing. Sal Tortina.

Just the man I want to see.

Same goes here.

I was wondering if you weren't too busy.

If you and I could take a ride, I got something to show you. I got something

give you.

A little bonus to help you get set up.

You've done good.

You got four digits in here, man.

Why are you doing this?

Sal, give yourself some credit, will you?

I've got you working here because I think you can help me.

You don't get it, man, do you?

I was going to take you for a ride so I could blow your brains out.

That's why I was following you that night.

You dig it?

Oh, Sal.

Oh, Sal.

Why? I never know why.

I just know how much and who. Who?

Michael Sharp.

I better leave.

Just forget I got out of prison, all right?

And watch your back.

Sal.

You still work for me.

Michael Sharp wants a war.

Why don't you give it to him?

I'll help you.

Wait a minute.

This thing ain't gonna electrocute me, is it? No. You could take a shower with

this wire on.

You all right?

If you're not comfortable with this, we'll find another way to get him.

Nah, it's cool.

It was my idea.

You're gonna be with him every step of the way, right?

You don't have a thing to worry about.

We do these and I sleep.

That's what I'm afraid of.

Don't worry.

All right?

I'm gonna be there, too.

Oh, hold on, Janet.

This is a police operation.

No way in the world you're coming with us. Oh, and I'm coming with you. You

wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me. I supplied the U .S. attorney with a hell

of a lot of information. He owes me a few.

Call him if you want.

I'll call him.

You get good reception here, Mr. Sheriff.

Tell me again, what did he say on the phone?

He said everything was going fine, and this time he wasn't going to screw up.

What do you mean, this time?

Chalo, what do you mean?

Well, I didn't want to tell you, but I kind of thought I might ruin your

digestion.

But Chalo's the same dude who tried to hit Channing in prison.

What?

I told you, guys like this are hard to find.

Hey, there he is.

Ole! Ole!

Let's go.

Where you been, man? Come on. Chicks or what?

Hey. Hey, Chalo. Nice car.

You

better

have good news for me.

Be slugged in the back of the head.

Is that good enough for you?

Pelicans will be eating them for breakfast.

All right, Sal.

I thought you kids were good, man.

So, are you going to pay me for the hit on Channing now, Mr. Sharp, or are you

going to put it on your credit card?

Because I'm going to buy me some Italian silk and throw it across my back.

Come on, Sal.

Get him to say something.

This is gonna be a very big waste of time.

Love that sound.

Thanks.

Nick, drop him off at the next corner.

Shoot, man, what's wrong with this tube?

Nick, turn off the tape player. I'm losing my picture.

Tape player's not on.

What you looking at me for?

I don't know.

Checking for a wire.

What are we doing? How did that happen?

Hey!

What the hell are you doing?

What the hell are you doing?

It's not what you think, man.

I record all my transactions.

Not doing nothing. We can keep it if you want.

Are we being followed?

Not that you mention it.

Step on it, Mac.

Take care of him, Chalo.

Right now.

No can do, Mr. Sharp.

Since when are you a choir boy?

This is where I draw the line.

Don't ask me again.

Ten thousand dollars.

You're a lousy driver.

It was my fault.

There's another dead scumbag.

He was my friend.

Mitch on Falcon Crest.

You were with someone, weren't you? What did you do to get him to pay the bill?

Sleep with him? He's not suspicious, is he? He thinks I'm his best buddy.

Is Lance Compton's wife here?

Oh, my God. I want that dingbat signature on this contract.

The man wants Falcon Crest, pure and simple.

I can't do it. We've got her signature on plenty of documents.

We can trace it. Make it look like suicide.

God knows she's loony enough. People will believe it. It's the only way,
