SPEAKER_01 (00:01):
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
welcome and welcome back toSoapboy, the official gathering
place for new lead novices andOG Dialog fans of the Golden Age
of Primetime.
I'm hoping viewing and reviewingone of the most explosive prime
time finales of all season 4,episode 30, Falcon Quest.

(00:22):
So whether you're new to this ornew to this, you'll back and
enjoy.
I'm not joking today.
Don't make it this time to playout Falcon Bike.
Don't make notify suggestions orthe next 25 or 55 minutes.
Everyone else will be talking.
Be cool, be quiet, or you willbe without the needle of

(00:42):
watching us talking.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys andgirls.
Welcome and welcome back toSouth More.
Oh.
I don't mean to be dramatic, butI'm going to be dramatic.

(01:07):
I just had the time of my lifefor the past 48 minutes.
It was spectacular.
It was intriguing.
I can't even form full sentencesin this moment.
I had me a good time.
I hope you're ready to have agood time as well.
Falcon Crest, season finale, 30episodes this season.

(01:30):
I'll tell you what, if you don'thave it together by the end, you
might as well scrap the wholeproject.
Lucky for us, Falcon Crest.
I don't know why I was notexpecting the unexpected.
I was expecting more of thesame, but in a wonderful story.
I got so much more than abargain for, okay?
Not to be dramatic, but thismight have been my favorite

(01:53):
finale ever.
Like ever.
I was a little concerned, I'mnot gonna lie.
With the buzzer beater storylineflip at episode 20, you know,
I'm used to Falconcrest comingin with a nice neat bow, making
sure everything is cohesive,making sure every sentence is
accounted for, every scene isworthwhile, everything means

(02:16):
something.
That wasn't necessarily the casethis season.
No, it doesn't really matter.
We still had an explosivefinale.
I can't wait to get in with you.
So go ahead and pour yourself upsomething bubbly and bright.
Y'all tell me why.
Last time I was on here, I hadthe toast.
Remember the non-alcoholicregular dagger champagne.
I went back to get the sangriabecause I have these cherries in

(02:38):
my fridge that have been in thisairtight jar.
I need to do something withthose sooner rather than later.
And I don't bake.
So I was just gonna chop them upwith oranges and all kinds of
other stuff, pour it in my wineand have myself a good time.
Only me putting it out thereinto the world, all of a sudden,
all the sangria disappeared.
So I picked up the rose to.

(03:00):
If you haven't tried toast,makes me know, never mind.
I'm just saying, if the spiritmoves you, if you're walking in
Walmart or Target or Kroger's orRalph's, wherever you're at, and
you happen to see it, it's likeeight bucks.
Pick it up.
You're not gonna be mad, Ipromise.
This rose is delightful.
Just like this episode of FalconCrest.
Season four, episode 30,Avenging Angels.

(03:24):
The more I watch vintageprimetime television, the more I
realize that modern televisiondoesn't really exist in the
traditional sense.
Not really.
Most of the shows we watch noware streamed, and there is no
such thing as a 30-episodeseason.
It seems a little bit out ofcharacter for 1985 as well.
You have to wonder though, whenyou write that many episodes, is

(03:46):
it a conscious choice?
Is it sort of throwing spaghettiat the wall and seeing what
sticks, seeing maybe you couldfilm something this season, use
it next season?
I don't really know.
But when you're telling a story,especially a serial story, you
gotta get from point A to pointB, and sometimes you gotta go
all the way around the block todo that.

(04:06):
That's what we I see a lot onthis episode.
Chase, Richard, and Angela allhave something they want to
achieve.
For the first time in a verylong time, they're all on the
same page, but everybody'staking different steps.
You gotta do this so you can getthat.
You gotta talk to this person sothat you can buy this, you can
sell that, so you can have this.

(04:27):
Reminds me of that story.
Maybe it's not a story, I thinkit's a song.
The old lady who swallows a fly.
Always get that confused withthe old lady that lives in a
shoe, which I thought was afantastic concept when I was a
kid.
The old lady that swallows afly.
You remember she swallows a fly,freaks out, then she swallows
like a spider, realizes, oh mygod, I have a spider and a fly

(04:49):
now.
Let me swallow this bird.
Then she has to swallow a cat,she swallows a dog, she swallows
a horse.
I had no idea that horses anddogs had this sort of beef, but
I mean, I'm not privy to a lotof animal goings on behind my
back.
I had no idea.
But the concept of that wholestory is it's not meant to be

(05:11):
taken seriously.
It's not literal, it's it's anonsensical song, I think they
call it.
Just something sort of silly,something melodic.
It teaches kids sequencing andextends your memory a little
bit.
It's meant to teach you, but ina lot of ways, in real life, you
do do things step by step.
Sometimes there are things youdon't really want to do, a means

(05:34):
to an end.
You skip going out, you skipthat vacation so you can put a
down payment on a house.
You pack your lunch so that youcan save up for a trip.
You make small sacrifices withthe end in mind.
That's the goal.
The old lady who swallowed thefly was not thinking, she was
being reactive instead ofproactive.

(05:55):
And so, of course, she dies atthe end.
This episode is a master classin starting with the the end in
mind.
Sometimes you swallow downthings you don't want to in
order to get the things you dowant.
The trick here is to keep theend in mind.
You gotta know why you're doingthis, and you also gotta know

(06:19):
when to stop.
Had the lady stopped at thebird, she'd probably be fine.
Speaking of which, we start theepisode off with bad girl Melly
Mel eating crow.
First thing we see this episodeis Melissa on the front steps of

(06:40):
Falcon Crest, the home she leftlast season in haste, sonless,
husbandless, inheritanceless.
I mean, these things, when youadd them all up, are kind of
devastating.
I'm not making excuses foranybody.
You gotta understand her stateof mind.

(07:01):
Yeah, she made a bad businessdeal, things went awry, and now
she has to pay the price.
I can honestly say she'sstanding in the front door,
she's not there so that anyonewould have pity on her per se.
I mean, that's probably like 35%of it, but the rest is just
guilt.
This got out of hand.
This went real bad, and man, Ididn't mean it.

(07:22):
She wants to apologize to Angelaonly.
Angela does not answer her owndoor, duh.
Usually Chowley would, but Iguess he's busy doing something
else.
And the manimal is there togreet Mrs.
Gioberti.
Unluckily for her, Big Perm isback in her bully era.
She ain't with the ish.
Melissa's like, I'm so sorry.
She's telling the manimal allthese things, and he's like,

(07:43):
Don't worry, I'm gonna representyou.
I'm gonna be the best lawyer Ican be for you.
Angela hears this and she'slike, Well, cry me a river.
Look with the cat drug in.
Oh, listen to you.
I'm so sorry.
Boo-hoo.
Things got out of hand.
Blah, blah, blah.
Cry me a river.
Now that you said your piece,scram, get off my property.

(08:04):
Dropping the value.
Melissa's like, please, Angela,I know.
I'm just really sorry.
I need you to hear me out.
Angela says, girl, my grandsonspent time in jail.
He was on his way to prison.
He became a fugitive runningamok all up and down the West
Coast.
Lorraine lost a whole baby.
Now she's laid up in thehospital.
You're talking about you sorry.

(08:25):
Melissa's like, I am.
I'm sorry.
I wasn't thinking clearly.
You took me out of theinheritance and I lost my mind a
little bit.
You know what it is.
You know how it is.
Truth is, Angela does know howit is.
I'm sure many moons ago she wasa whole lot like Melissa, but
makes her know never mind.
She tells her to get the heckoff her property, be gone.
I'll see you in court at yoursentencing.

(08:47):
That's the other thing, sort oflooming over Melissa's head.
She's turned herself in, she'sbeen released, but there is a
court date where she will besentenced.
She has to pay for this crime.
I I let me just reiterate thisone more time.
I am so very disappointed thatMelissa, aka Badgirl Melly Mel,
would allow herself to beentrapped by such foolishness.

(09:11):
Unless she signed the memo lineon the check, I would have told
them he was gonna put in a pool,he was gonna redo my roof, he
was gonna build me a pool house,and he was gonna manage the
property.
$50,000.
That seems like$50,000 worth ofstuff in 1985 to me.
This was circumstantial, but Iguess it's the guilt kicking it.

(09:32):
She's not really Melissa's not avillain.
She's a bad girl, not a villain,and there is a very distinct
difference.
A villain is willing to do theworst, and their conscience is
little to none.
It doesn't really factor into alot of their decisions.
A bad girl is highly emotional.
Both a villain and a bad girlwant power.
She wanted the power, but youknow what?

(09:54):
Her little feelings got in theway.
The minute this man was inhandcuffs, she was like, dang, I
can't, oh god, that no, that'snot what I thought.
I thought he was gonna get adrug charge, but here we are.
Once Melissa leaves, Angelalooks over at the manimal, just
shocked, like, can you believeshe came over my house early in
the morning asking forforgiveness?

(10:15):
And she thought she wouldreceive it.
Clearly, she's high.
She's tripping, trippin'.
The manimal's like, I mean,you're probably gonna forgive
her once you need her grapes.
Angela's like, What grapes?
Her harvest.
Dang, I keep forgetting aboutthat.
Dang.
So now Angela has a decision tomake.
She's just read this little girlfor Phil, kicked her out one

(10:35):
more gin.
But you know what?
She really does need thosegrapes.
Especially now that she onlyowns one-third of Falcon Crest.
So she's like, dang.
Let me go to bed.
Let me sleep on it.
When I wake up in the morning,we'll see how I feel.
Angela Big Perm Channing mightbe the best part of this whole
episode.
She is back to being a surly oldlady.

(11:01):
She's had to play nice for far.
Well, let's let's be clear.
Let's be clear.
Let me not insult her.
She never played nice, sheplayed compliant.
She has been compliant for fartoo long.
29 episodes is way more thanenough.
It's time for her to get back onher you get on my damn nerves
tour.
This episode, she wants everyoneto see her for who she is.

(11:24):
She is that chick.
She'll roll over you if sheneeds to.
She'll do whatever she needs todo to get the job done.
She will swallow whatever flies,spider, bird, whatever she needs
to do to make sure that A to Zis in order.
Only she's not aware of a bitplayer.
Enter Cassandra.
Cassandra is so 80s thisepisode.

(11:46):
From the pastel outfit to theshoulder pads to the slick back,
sort of boofed hair, is typicalshort 80s hair where it's not
quite a mullet, not quite like abob.
Somewhere in between, slick backpoofed up on the side.
She's a power broker.
She's a business lady in the80s.
Shoulder pads on fleek.

(12:07):
This episode, she's like, youknow what?
I'm tired of being cute too,Angela.
I understand this.
I'm tired of putting up thisfacade claws out.
So she's in her office.
Her little brother Damon, akaRiker, comes in.
He's smirking.
He's sort of floating in andout, and she knows why.
He's sweet on Emma, and Emma'ssweet on him.
She asked him what he's smilingat, and he's like, You don't

(12:27):
want to hear the answer.
She's like, actually, I do.
If it's about Emma, I do want tohear it because I want you to
take her and her mother out fora delicious meal.
And Damon's immediatelysuspicious.
Why do you want me to take themout to eat?
Well, my do dirt dude will be intown, and I need the house
completely empty so he canransack it.
Damon is appalled.

(12:48):
It's one thing to defend yourfamily.
I get it.
Mama said, knock you out.
That's exactly what we're gonnado.
Nobody said anything about BE.
He gets up like, dude, this isthis is too much.
I'm listening I'm all fordestroying Angela Channing.
I'm all for ruining her life andtaking Falcon Crest, but this is

(13:08):
getting out of hand.
We're messing up Chase's life,we're messing up Richard's life.
Because Sandra's like, I mean,that's the cost to be the boss.
You want to lay in bed with thedevil?
This it is what it is.
I'm sorry for the collateraldamage, but it is what it is.
Mama said, knock them out.
That's what we gotta do.
Damon's like, I know, but B andE?
Really?
She's like, Yeah, B and E,really.

(13:30):
Would you rather, would yourather everybody be home?
Here's here's your choice,Damon.
You have two choices.
You can take your girlfriend outand you can take her mother out
and make sure that you take themout in San Francisco.
I don't want it in TuscanyValley.
I need them gone because I needChali gone too.
Don't nobody want to run up onChali in an empty house.
Or my dood dude can bust in andturn that B-E to a real life

(13:54):
beating, snuffing out Emma andher mom.
Do you want Emma to happen up onmy dood dude?
Or do you want Emma to eatsalmon croquettes?
The choice is yours.
He scoffs.
Fine, fine, fine, I'll take himout.
Storms out, but he's none toopleased about their burger
burglar burglary plans.

(14:14):
He thinks she's not thinkingclearly.
She is.
She wants the deed, the dood doto break into the house so that
she can get Angela Channing'sbin.
Now you have to remember howthis whole Helios thing is
playing out.
Cassandra sought out Richard byway of his Francesca Wine and
Spirits.
She became the ad exec for theiraccount.

(14:37):
She's promising to, you know,spread their image far and wide.
Richard, you'll be the newAngela, you'll be the legacy.
It'll come together quitebeautifully.
It's Inception.
She's the one who plants theidea about them going global.
Why don't you guys hook up withHelios?
They can put you in corners ofthe earth you're not even
thinking about.
You can be in grocery stores,you can be wherever you want.

(14:57):
She is planning that deal.
So she is fully aware because A,she's the ad exec, she knows
exactly what Falconcrust isplanning to do as the company
Falconcrest.
She also knows a little bit moreabout the money situation
because she is with Richard.
Not that he's telling her toomuch, but she's she's picking up
what he's putting down.

(15:18):
She also has her own do dirtpeople.
She's also got a couple thingsgoing on back east.
It's all coming togetherbeautifully.
Keep that in mind.
And Angela is none the wiser.
Speaking of Helios and business,one of the things I didn't
forget, but it hadn't beenplaying as strong in my mind is
that Richard and Chase are theones who are struggling

(15:40):
financially.
Not because they don't have it,their money's sort of tied up in
different places.
Angela has all of the money, allof the prestige she needs to,
she could probably do this dealby herself.
She's mentioned it more times ina little bit that she'd be happy
to buy them out.
Richard and Chase, of course,aren't going for that.
They have made Richard and Chasehave gathered all the
accoutrements they need toproceed with this deal.

(16:00):
They put things in place, theymade sure to get a manufacturer,
they made sure to get largerspace, they made sure to put up
enough collateral.
They look really good on paper,which is the whole point.
I didn't realize that they stillhadn't gotten approved by the
bank or by the uh the otherpeople, but this next scene sort
of clears it up.
So they're sitting in Angela'sstudy, and by they I mean Falcon

(16:23):
Crest, as in Richard, Angela,Chase, and the Manimal.
Now the bank is considering allof this.
They're like, okay, there'smoney, there's production,
there's a Webster wine andstorage facility.
I mean, things look good.
I mean, it's it looks okay.
The banker feels like he needsto tell them, look, this is a
hell of a risk, but if you'regood with it, I guess I'm good
with it.

(16:44):
I just need to get that off mychest.
You guys are taking anincredible risk.
Richard hears this and he'slike, Oh, I guess we can start
celebrating.
The banker says, not quite.
We have to at least let otherpeople bid on it just so that it
looks fair.
I mean, but I mean, it's it'spretty much a yes.
Everyone's feeling like it's ayes.
So Chase and Richard leave, andwhen they do the manimal and

(17:04):
Angela get right down tobusiness, they start having a
discussion about the otherbidders.
Angela wants to know who is it?
Who the other people?
It's this soft drink company andsomeone else, but the soft drink
company is the only bitter wortheven thinking about.
So Angela's like, you know what?
I'm so sick and tired of dealingwith these little flies.
I can't wait.
Get these people out of my lifefor good.

(17:25):
She means Richard and Chase.
So she exposes for the firsttime to the audience and she's
like, you know what?
I'm gonna bankrupt these losers.
I have FU money.
And what's the point of having FU money if you can't tell
someone F you?
The manimal's like, are you sureyou want to do this if you
bankrupt them?
Then what are you gonna do?
She's like, I'm gonna buy backtheir shares, obviously, take
back over my kingdom and be donewith this.

(17:46):
I'm tired of playing with thesekids.
I'm sick of this.
She would rather break Richardand Chase financially than to
have this deal and be spread allover the world, which is
probably good for her becauseit's it's as far as I know, this
was supposed to go down thetoilet regardless.
Last season, she was forced toshare with Chase.
Season one, she was forced toshare with Chase.
She's over this ish now.

(18:06):
She is not about to do this withthese bohos not on today.
Plus, she has a dinner date, soshe didn't want to talk about it
anymore.
Angela, to my surprise, decidesto go to dinner with Damon and
Emma.
Now, Damon and Angela arebegrudgingly going to dinner for
very different reasons.
She's going to shut Emma up,he's going to do what his sister
says, but they end up making thebest of it because he is quite

(18:30):
charming.
Angela's got that old ladyattitude I was telling you
about.
She sips a wine.
It's Falcon Crest wine, by theway.
She sips, smells it.
She won't even drink it.
She said, uh, nope, this is bad.
Somebody didn't store thisproperly.
I'm not drinking it.
It's undrinkable, it's horrible.
Damon immediately calls over thewaiter and he says, Sir, could
you please remove this?
Apparently it wasn't storedproperly.
Could you bring us somethingelse?

(18:52):
The waiter got an attitude as heshould.
He's probably been on his feetall day, every day.
He's tired of these richnobodies trying to tell him what
is and what isn't fresh andavailable in his restaurant.
So he says, I beg your pardon.
We are known worldwide, my guy,for the way we store things.
Take another sip, my guy.
Please do.
And Damon's like, listen, Idon't want no smoke, but here's

(19:13):
the owner of Falcon Crest.
You can tell her that if youwant to.
He's like, Oh my bad on thesubject.
Angela's reputation is back.
She is inciting fear fromwaiters, small children, old
people, young people.
Everybody is scared of her.
And you know what?
That makes her feel good.
Nothing makes her smile brighterthan a little fear in someone.
She's like, like the clown it.

(19:34):
The more terrified you are, thebetter it tastes.
She's like, Oh, let's eat.
This is lovely.
When they get home, she's like,girl, I sure do like meet some
demon.
She is impressed.
She's like, Emma, you got a goodone, boo.
You did good.
I like that boy.
Angela and Emma are just, youknow, sort of cheesing as they

(19:57):
return to Falcon Crest.
They're opening the doors,Charlie's with them.
The phone rings.
Angela goes to answer it.
This is Angela Channing.
Oh no.
Oh, oh, yes.
Okay.
Okay, we'll be right there.
It's the hospital.
The hospital is calling becauseLorraine has taken a turn for

(20:17):
the worst.
She needs some sort of surgery.
Things are not looking good.
We know that because immediatelythey flash over to the hospital
where we see Richard and we seeLance.
Doctor comes out and he's like,Oh man, oh man.
This man, we'll get into this.
Things aren't looking good.
It's, I mean, it's not lookinggreat at all.

(20:39):
She's got complications.
She's in a coma now.
If she wakes up from the coma,she's got she's gonna have like
speech problems and stuff.
I don't know if she's gonna makeit.
So we get the point.
He says it just as elementary asthat.
I have said more times in alittle bit over the last two
episodes that every time you seePrecious Lorraine, she's no

(21:03):
cast, no um, what do you callthat?
Like a little thing you put onyour wrist.
Her arm isn't taped in any way.
There is no sling.
There is no sling for her leg.
No boot.
She's simply sitting in bedtalking like that kid on Malcolm
in the Middle.
Last episode, she seemed to bein better spirits.
Now, she does look a littlegreasy or something, like she's

(21:24):
not feeling well, I guess.
It's hard on a soap operabecause everyone's so beautiful.
So, I mean, I guess she'ssupposed to look sick.
She just looks a little bitsweaty.
She's been talking for the lasttwo episodes.
Last episode, she was wellenough to sit up in bed and get
married.
But something happened betweenlast episode and this, and I
think I know what.
I truly believe the writers camein and was like, hold on, hold

(21:46):
on, hold on.
I got an idea.
I know exactly what we're gonnado for the finale.
Other writers are like, What arewe gonna do?
First things first, I thinkLorraine's out of here.
Do you guys agree?
I think it was a unanimousdecision.
The acting, the last fourepisodes, has been abysmal.

(22:07):
If there are 30 episodes,there's a lot of chance for
redemption, but you know what?
It wasn't a good sign.
And I think I knew right awaybecause when they show the rain,
she had some sort of brainsurgery.
You know, it's always a brainissue, brain swelling, something
like that, blah, blah, blah.
Her head is completely wrappedin gauze this time, so it's

(22:29):
like, okay.
But she has a tube in her mouth,not a traditional tube is if
you've been in the hospital.
Everybody knows they kind ofhave to tape the hose in, and
you know, that's how you'regonna breathe.
You need, or a mask orsomething, you need a pretty big
passageway for air to flowthrough.
Y'all tell me why this girl hasthe tiniest little vacuum tube
in her mouth.
You know, when you go to thedentist and the hygienist is

(22:53):
brushing your teeth and theirsprain in a little water, and
they tell you to close yourmouth and a little vacuum sucks
it out.
She's got one of them in hermouth.
So that means this girl isclenching her teeth holding this
together.
Oh boy, it was not looking goodfor Lorraine.
It's one of those telltalesigns.
If you have an alarm system inyour home or at work, if it ever

(23:15):
goes off and nothing's wrong,the alarm system company will
call you.
You can either give them a codeor like a code word or
something.
I think the signal went off atFalcon Crest in the writer's
room.
Like, uh, if you act poorly fouror five episodes in a row, we're
gonna have to do something aboutit.
We're gonna skip around just alittle bit.

(23:36):
It does turn out that Lorraineis not she's not on the mend.
She's half she's brain dead.
She's brain dead.
So the doctor comes back out,and it is once again, it is
Richard, and it is Lance.
But because Lance has marriedthis woman, he is in charge of
making any decisions.
He's young and in love, he'sbeen in jail, he's been away

(23:58):
from her for far too long.
There is zero chance that he'sgonna do anything that would
mean saying goodbye to her.
So the doctor explains, youknow, there's not a lot of brain
activity.
She's on this machine, and it'slike he's he's telling Vance
that she's brain dead and thatshe's on life support, and all
he hears is life.
He's like, Well, we can't giveup on her.

(24:19):
Richard is hearing this, and hehe is looking increasingly
downtrodden.
He's looking quite depressed,he's looking greasy and clammy.
It's all sort of hittingRichard.
Richard has had no qualms withbeing the absolute villain this
season.
As a matter of fact, he's turnedit up a notch he has been
downright unpleasant to everyonein his life.

(24:41):
This episode is no different.
You know how he did LeatherPants Pam last time.
She's talking about flying tothe French Riviere and having
this wonderful life.
And he's like, How are you gonnado that in jail?
He was petty enough to turn herin despite her working for him
the entire time.
And if you recall, in seasonthree, he was flying all over
the world looking for.
He was in love, love.

(25:01):
But I knew the moment Francescawalked in there swiveling her
60-year-old Italian hips, it wasover him.
He ain't thought about Pamsince.
And apparently he don't thinkabout anybody else but his sweet
little girl.
Richard is a villain, there's nodoubt about that.
He's unscrupulous.
Sort of.
I mean, he seems fair when heneeds to be.
He was really nice to Maggie'smom.
He likes he's nice to Lorraine.

(25:23):
He has his moments, right?
He has he does have a little bitof a soft underbelly, which
makes him not a super villainlike Angela.
We'll get to her in a second.
Richard has been ruthless allseason.
He doesn't stop on this episode.
Matter of fact, he decides hehasn't ruined enough lives just
yet.
So at Tuscany Downs, the Manimaland Aunt Terry are smooching on

(25:45):
the balcony like some teenagers.
It is kind of annoying.
And I guess Richard's hungry andready to go home.
He's like, Can you one of youcome up with air, please?
So you can please leave.
Please leave my establishment.
We're closed.
As they turn to leave, theManimal mentions that he'd
really like to buy some stock inSmall Virtue.
He's sort of fallen in love withhorse racing, blah, blah, blah.
Richard decides, oh, this is agood time to be messy.

(26:06):
And he says, you know, gosh, Isure wish I could have kept my
interest in Small Virtue, butyou know, it's frowned upon.
Can't own a racetrack and therace horses.
It's it's just not goodbusiness.
The manimal's like, yeah, I seethat.
Richard continues.
He says, I paid Melissa Bukumoney.
And then I just gave it toTerry.
Terry's the one who walked outof here at the best deal.

(26:27):
Now she's starting to getnervous.
Palms are sweaty, her buttcheeks are clenching.
What the heck is this man gonnasay?
I thought that he had nothingelse to dangle over her head.
I was wrong.
The manimal seems a little bitsurprised that A, Terry didn't
really have to pay for thehorse, and B, he's like, Well,
what are you what are yougetting at, Richard?
I feel like you want to saysomething.
Why don't you just say it?
Rich is like, I'd be pleased to.

(26:48):
He airs Terry out.
He says, Your girl got the horsefor free because she was spying
on you for me.
Greg, the manimal, is obviouslydisgusted.
Are you kidding me, Terry?
You've been spying on me.
Richard's like, yeah, how didyou think I knew that you guys
had moved the venue?

(27:09):
How did I know all these littlethings?
I knew it because your girl toldme.
Which is odd because he was notgiving Terry the time and day at
this point.
How she managed to get thatbusiness is pretty impressive.
But it's all aired out now.
So now Terry ain't got no man.
That's what he was dangling overher head when Richard went to
see her on the last episode.
He told the mammal that she wasspying on him.
Now, I I'm team Terry on this.

(27:31):
She had, listen, this thing wasgonna play out that way.
Either way, she did what sheneeded to do, but Richard is
petty.
He don't like the fact that shetold him to kick rocks.
She wasn't gonna do her dirtywork anymore.
He's like, okay, cool.
I'm gonna wait till you're goodand happy, and then I'm going to
destroy you.
That's his whole MO.
His villain arc is all aboutpower.
It's always about power.

(27:52):
And the fact that he's socold-witted, he can sleep with
you one day, kick you out of bedthe next day.
He's done it to Belly Mel, he'sdone it to Pam and her leather
pants.
He doesn't care except when hedoes.
His Achilles heel is none otherthan the lovely Lorraine who was
lying in the balance betweenlife and death as we speak in

(28:14):
1985.
You know what I'm saying?
So if you you take that littlenursery rhyme song or that silly
song, The Old Lady in the Fly,Richard, his fly is Lance.
Lance is too dangerous, in hisopinion.
And he is, let's be real.
Nobody's dad wants him to end upwith Lance.
I totally get it, but he took ittoo far.

(28:38):
The truth be told, he could havelet Melissa do all the dirty
work and let the chips lie wherethey may.
But he didn't.
He interfered.
Once Lance was arrested, he madeit his personal mission to make
sure that Lance went down forthe larger crime.
Despite the woman he almostallegedly murdered, saying,
Okay, I don't think it was him.
No, it makes no never mind.

(28:59):
You're a criminal.
I'm gonna make sure that you godown for this.
His first swallow is hisdecision to manipulate the
justice system.
He's buying off a judge, makingsure that Lance gets a larger
sentence.
It's a strategic move, but itsets off a chain reaction.
Like the old lady, he doesn'tknow when to stop and ask, is

(29:19):
this necessary?
Is this sustainable?
Next thing you know, he swallowsthe bird.
The bird is escalation.
He swallows a bird to catch thefly.
He launches a smear campaign.
He tails the rain, making surehe knows everywhere she goes so
he can find lands.
He's hiring P.I.s out the wazoo.
He has a PI to watch his girlCassandra.
He has a PI to watch his littlegirl.

(29:41):
Each move is meant to containthe fallout from the last, but
instead it just sort ofmultiplies the chaos.
He's no longer solving problems,he's feeding them.
Now he's gotta swallow this cat.
This is a collateral damage.
He finds out that Lorraine ispregnant, he kicks her out.
That sets off Maggie.
Maggie is no longer going to be.
Loyal to him.
Also, she's really sick andtired of the way he's running

(30:03):
this smear campaign againstLance.
Pam does not like the way he istreating his daughter.
She's got a soft spot forLorraine, too.
So she's making sure that all ofRichard's plans to track this
girl down are for nothing.
They're all moot because she'snot going to tell him one way or
another if she sees the rain orif she doesn't see the rain.
She's going to make up somethingevery time.

(30:23):
This is a kicker because he's sofocused on Lance that he's
missing Cassandra's red flags.
That's the thing.
He was smart enough to hire aPI.
He already knows.
Let me look into yourbackground.
I kind of look into everybodylike that.
But because he was so focused,Lance drew his attention away
from everything.
If you go back and watch it,there's not a moment where he's

(30:45):
on screen.
Well, there's like four momentswhere he's not.
He's talking about Lance almostevery single time.
So he's missing some of thethings he might have picked up
with Cassandra had he had alittle more focus.
He's also missing Angela'smaneuvers.
Why is she all of a sudden okaywith all this?
Why is she all of a suddencooperative?
She's not that hard up formoney.
She could definitely buy us out.

(31:07):
He's not thinking straight.
The cat swallows a bird.
Now he's gotta swallow thishorse.
Which brings us back toLorraine.
Lorraine's fall, Lorraine'scoma, and the decision that
comes next is the horse.
Richard stands before Lance,listening to the doctor.

(31:27):
He can clearly see that Lance isreally in love with this girl,
and he's in pain.
Richard is also in pain, but heunderstands what the doctor is
saying.
So he has to put his side, hispride aside for a brief moment.
Swallow his pride, if you will,and say, Lance, she's already
gone.

(31:48):
It would be cruel to continue tokeep her plugged up to this
machine.
Lance is like, I can't.
It's it's it is a little sad.
I'm not gonna lie.
Yes, I laughed when I sawLorraine's.

unknown (31:59):
I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_01 (32:01):
Lorraine stayed in her bed, but it is sad.
Like they've been through somuch.
They couldn't enjoy their life.
They could just be, they couldhave been happy.
And Lance says as much.
He's like, Richard, if youweren't so focused on me, you
would be meeting your grandsonin a few months.
We would be celebrating like asa family, but now you're gonna

(32:22):
lose her too.
You're gonna lose everything.
You lost your grandchild, youlost your daughter all because
you hated me.
Ooh, baby.
Golly.
That hit home.
I'm like, dang, he's right.
You were so focused on the wrongthing, now you're gonna lose it
all.
Lance inevitably has to make thedecision.

(32:42):
He does, unfortunately.
They pull the plug, Lorraine isgone.
This is Richard swallowing thefinal horse.
This is a moment where theabsurdity of the whole situation
becomes a tragedy.
Richard's life is collapsing allthe way around him, and it's
only going to get worse.
Richard's a good businessman, abad boyfriend, and an even worse

(33:04):
dad.
Despite all that, that's noteven his biggest mistake.
His biggest mistake is pissingoff the Angela Channing.
Let's go back to Mellie Male fora minute.
Now, Melly Mel is sweatingbricks.
She's real nervous about herupcoming sentence.
She could possibly go to thepenitentiary.
Big girl jail.
She don't wonder all that.

(33:24):
We see what happened to Juliathere.
Julia got beat up every otherday when she went to jail.
Now, I do feel like Melissa's alittle more scrappy.
She'd probably be okay, but nah,she's got to go to court and she
does.
Now, Angela has had time tosleep on this.
This all happens before Lorrainepasses away.
Melissa's court hearing is infull session, her family being

(33:45):
cold, and you know theGiaberdies there.
In walks Angela Channing, and Iguess when the door opened,
because she's wearing red.
Every time Angela wears red,usually it's red polka dots.
She's up to no good.
She got on her white gloves,white skirt, red jacket.
She busts in the courtroom likeit's not a court of law.
Like it's um, I don't know.

(34:06):
I don't know what I can't eventhink of something.
Like she's cheering at abasketball game or something.
Hey, judge, hey, um, I gotsomething to say.
The judge sort of looks over.
She's like, considering I'm thelady who this woman tried to
off, I feel like I should get tospeak my mind.
The judge is like, you know,you're right.
Yeah, he scared her too,basically.
So Angela goes up to the noteven the bench.
She didn't even bother to tocross the threshold.

(34:27):
She's sitting over there wherethe people are in the audience.
And she says, This young ladycame to my home yesterday with
her hat in her hand.
She was humble, she wasremorseful.
I think she suffered enough.
If I can forgive her, you shouldforgive her too, Judge.
My grandson's out of jail, allis well.
I don't see any reason to hold agrudge.

(34:48):
She smiles at sweet smile, shesmiles, which is basically like,
try me if you want to.
The judge says, Mm, you knowwhat you're right.
I mean, uh, nobody died.
So okay, Melissa, two months incounty.
Everybody starts cheering.
She's like, yes, yes.
I think that's a good idea, too,actually.

(35:08):
I don't know about everywhere inthe United States, and I
certainly don't know about otherplaces in the world, but I do
know that a lot of small towns,here's a little T.
County jail is where you want togo if you need to go to jail.
Now, I've never been to jail.
I am speaking not fromexperience, but from things I
have borne witness to.

(35:28):
In a small town, which I imagineTuscany Valley isn't super
large.
Melissa already knows thesheriff.
She probably knows 80% of thestaff at the jail.
Nine times out of ten, countyjail, if it is a relatively
small, and I'm talking under20,000 people in the town,
nobody goes to jail every day.
That jail cell is empty 90% ofthe time.

(35:50):
So when they do have inmates,they treat them more like
interns.
I can't name any names, but Iknow a person who definitely
went to jail.
They had some charges for um forsomething that didn't cause
anyone else any harm.

(36:10):
There was not really a lot ofproperty damage.
It was just sort of violatingthe same thing over and over.
They went to county.
And do you know all they did issleep in the pr in the jail at
night, and then they would letthem out during the day to go to
work.
I've seen this more times in alittle bit.
There was another person I wentto school with.
They were sort of young at thetime.
They had to spend, I think itwas two years, in county, but I

(36:35):
mean, we'd see them outsidepicking up trash and stuff.
They still give you a life.
So I'm saying all that to saycounty ain't that bad.
Melissa ain't all that sad untilshe goes home and baby Joseph is
on her lap and she's like, dang,what do we tell them?
What do we tell them?
Me thinking in 2025, livingthrough the Paris Hiltons, the
Kardashians, the Lindsey Lohans,the you can name a million

(36:58):
people who've been to rehab.
And plus it's California, noshade, but if you're gonna go to
rehab, that they have all sortsof spas and all sorts of things.
Tell them she's in rehab.
Tell them she went to angermanagement.
Tell them she went to school,she needed to finish her degree.
She's like two months too.
She'll call you every othernight.
He's also two, so I mean, henah, who knows?
Or four.
I don't know how old this kidis.
Four?

(37:18):
That's irrelevant.
She's worried about that.
And what makes matters worse,her trifling chicken head cousin
is bopping around.
Robin thinks she is the cat'smeow.
Oh my god, how old am I?
She thinks she's a fly littlebirdie.
She's a dame with gams.
She is bibbity bobbity-booingall around.
Robin is getting on her nervesevery day.

(37:41):
All day, every single day.
Melissa is eventually carted offto jail towards the end of the
episode.
And let me tell you what, herhusband does not shed a tear.
Neither does baby Joseph.
Perhaps they're putting up afront, but the sheriff
definitely comes to pick her up.
She has one suitcase.
She begs the sheriff not to puther in handcuffs in front of her

(38:02):
baby.
Now, I ain't never known thecops to go to your house to pick
you up to give you a ride tojail.
I don't know why they couldn'thave just dropped her off, but I
guess we needed to be dramatic.
We needed to see something.
Robin comes bibbidi-bobbitingout of the house, talking about.
She hands Melissa some knittingstuff.
She hands her some yarn andthose two long needles, and

(38:25):
Melissa's like, what the hell isthis?
Robin said, Well, since you'regonna be gone for eight weeks,
maybe you can learn to crochet.
Maybe you can learn to knit andyou can have a beautiful Afghan
for this baby.
I bought I put blue and I putpink.
And she's smiling like she'scute.
I've never known a jail cellthat allows you.
I mean, they may let you out forwork.
They may let you go across thestreet to the Dairy Queen and

(38:47):
get a burger if you want.
I mean, yeah, that happens.
I didn't know they let you havesharp contraband.
Seemed like two knitting needlesis the last thing you would want
to give a prisoner, or excuseme, an inmate parading as an
intern.
But the sheriff is pretty coolwith it.
She's gonna seduce him.
I can already tell.
She's gonna seduce him and beout in like four days if she

(39:09):
wants.
Let's get back to Richard's fauxpas.
Richard Channing pissed offAngela Channing.
That's not gonna fare well.
Let's run it back to thecourtroom.
Angela's standing there with herred jacket looking at Melissa
after the verdict has dropped.
Melissa is mad, grateful.
Thank you, Angela.
Man, I appreciate you coming inlike that.

(39:30):
Girl, I was real, I was realnervous.
I didn't think he was gonna doit.
Angela's like, as you as you cansee, I'm back.
Bold as ever.
Glad he let your little pop tartgo.
Melissa continues to thank herprofusely.
And Angela's like, you lucky yougot off easy.
I don't usually leave people whotry to kill me breathing, but
I'm gonna let you live.
I'm gonna let you keep yourkneecaps because I want you to

(39:51):
see what I'm gonna do to yourlittle friend.
I'm gonna I want you to witnesswhat I'm about to do to your
friend Richard.
He's up to his eyebrows, and Iain't gonna let that ish slide.
I haven't forgotten nothing.
I have something for Richard'sass.
Melissa watches her withrespect, reverence, like, okay,
now I'll feel you, Angela.
And you better get him before Ido.
I'm already going to jail, so Imean you better hope you get him

(40:17):
before I get my hands on him.
That's all I'ma say.
Bad recognizes bad.
Baddies recognizes baddies.
Okay, now Angela is especiallyhateful this episode.
She sat down in court as theywere giving the verdict.
She looked this little girl upsitting beside her up and down,
just being hateful for noreason.
She's got this grand plan,right?

(40:39):
She has been patiently waitingfor a track to explode on, and
it's about to be her turn.
If Richard is a little old ladywho accidentally swallowed the
fly, Angela is a little old ladywho swallowed it on purpose.
You see, Angela isn't Richard.
She doesn't spiral, shestrategizes.
Every swallow is tactical.

(41:00):
But her question is, did sheswallow too much?
Did she miss the poison in thebait?
Angela's fly was losing soulownership.
She was trying to finagle itback from Chase at the beginning
of this season.
She lost her husband in a planecrash.
She's pissed off at everybody.
She wants what's rightfullyhers.
And she almost hasn't.
Almost.

(41:20):
She's got half of Falcon Crest.
She's got to figure out how toget the other half.
And then in walks her sister.
Angela has a long-lost sisterfrom Italy who was more than
willing to be like, girl, Idon't want this.
I don't want no third ornothing.
I'll give it to you.
She was gonna do that, but thenAngela pissed her off.
Angela's sister ends up givingher third over to Richard.

(41:43):
Angela swallows her fly, whichis her pride in this case,
because she has no choice.
She plays complacent, but it'sthe first step in her long game.
She's got vision.
Next, she swallows a bird.
Richard's cheap wine andCassandra Wilder's ad agency.
She really didn't see this forFalcon Crest, but it's all a

(42:04):
means to an end.
Fine.
You want to put up that littlecrap?
She knows every time Richarddoes something, he's spending
more money.
Cool, we can do that.
Do you want an ad agency?
I could probably use that to myadvantage.
I'll swallow this.
I'll take one.
She hates it, but she sees abigger picture.
Global expansion, a chance to beworldwide, and a chance to
bankrupt this fool and get herpiece of the property back.

(42:26):
Only things keep getting biggerwhen the Helios deal is
introduced.
Now she's gotta swallow a cat.
It just gets harder and harder,bigger and bigger, but she's a
gangster.
Angela swallows a cat.
She agrees to go in on theHelios deal.
She'll buy the new facilities,she'll tolerate the champagne
from Chase and Cole, she'lltolerate Richard's box wine.

(42:48):
She'll even let Cassandra docommercials for him.
Yeah, sure.
What the hell?
Why not?
She's building this illusion.
She's pretending to cooperateall the while she's plotting
this hostile takeover.
Only Richard's foolishnessinvites something else into it.
So now she's got to swallow thedog.
That's the whole family drama.

(43:08):
Her grandson gets framed.
Judges stop taking her calls.
She's got to chase this littleboy up and down the West Coast,
figure out where he's at.
She's got to make sure hemarries this little girl before
they have a bastard baby.
It's a lot.
But it it's really big becauseit's not something she had
planned, but she'll swallow thisdamn dog just so she can get to

(43:31):
the end.
She's got to get to the end ofthis so she can get what she
gets back.
And she does all this with astiff upper lip.
She's keeping it cute.
She's not keeping it cute.
Let me stop saying this.
She's never cute.
She's irritated the whole time,but she's showing up, which is
the illusion of participation.
Angela being snippy is theequivalent of someone else
giving you a hug.
So you just take what you canget.

(43:52):
She's got to finally suck it upand just swallow the biggest one
of all.
In her mind, she's just she'llswallow this cow or whatever it
is.
Massive investments, globalbranding, storage upgrades.
It's not about growth.
It's about control, whichseparates a villain from a super
villain.
She is all about control.
She's not emotionally attachedto too many people.

(44:13):
Even though she loved land, shestayed focused.
She didn't let anything pass infront of her.
She was not distracted.
And she's betting on chasingRichard's bankruptcy so she can
finally reclaim this.
Enter the Helios deal.
Angela's version of that story,of that lullaby or song, or
whatever it's called, is sheswallows her pride to gain some

(44:33):
trust.
She swallows a bird to catch thefly.
She swallows a cat to catch thebird.
She swallows a dog to catch thecat.
And she swallows a cow to catchthe dog, thinking that's the
last one.
She got big beef.
She wants to go out with a man.
Only she doesn't realize there'sone more animal left.
The wild horse.
Cassandra.

(44:53):
Cassandra has been busy.
Cassandra's got her own littlebird song to do.
Cassandra's dood dude broke andentered into Angela's home so
that he could secure the bid.
That's the only part of thepuzzle that Cassandra didn't
have.
She didn't know how much moneyFalconcrest was putting up.
She knew it was substantial, butshe needed to know the exact
number so that she can take itto the soft drink company so

(45:17):
that they can outbidFalconcrest.
Oddly enough, Cassandra andAngela are actually on the same
page, but for different reasons.
Just like Damon and Angela wentto dinner together for different
reasons.
Cassandra and Angela want thesoft drink company to win for
very, very different reasons.
Angela doesn't see Cassandracoming.
So Cassandra visits the, let'sjust call him Pepsi.

(45:39):
She visits a Pepsi-like dude.
He doesn't stand a chance.
She asked him how the Heliosdeal is going.
He's like, Oh, I mean, FalconCrush is gonna win.
They they all but told us it'sgonna be Falcon Crest.
I can't outbid her because Idon't know what she's got up.
Cassandra's like, oh, I gotsomething for you.
She presents him with all of thepapers that is the bid, that all
the money that Chase and thenput together.
It's everything.

(46:00):
It is wrapped in a bow.
It is his future secured.
And he's like, Wow, this isawesome.
Why'd you do this?
I don't know, I just did it, youknow, just take it.
So he's all too happy to do it.
Unbeknownst to him, AngelaChanning has the exact same
thing in mind.
So Angela leaves the courthouseafter Melissa's trial and she

(46:20):
goes straight to his office.
Now he's terrified when shecomes in.
He's like, Angela, uh, what awonderful day.
It's so nice.
And she's like, Listen, we ain'tnever had a pleasant meeting.
This one ain't gonna be pleasanteither.
Listen here, little boy.
I need you to do me a favor.
She hands him paperwork.
He thinks it's a cease anddesist or that she's fixing to
sue him or something becauseshe's always gone at his throat.
To his surprise, when he opensit, it is her bed.

(46:45):
So he's looking, it's reallyfunny.
The look on his face is like,uh, am I being punked?
Is this America's?
What is what's going on here?
He doesn't tell her thatCassandra's come.
He didn't say anything.
Because at this point, I gottathink of it like him.
If two people who you don't evenknow are connected in any way
show up with the sameinformation, you do sort of want

(47:07):
to proceed with caution.
You just sort of sit back and bequiet to see whatever, see what
she's gonna tell you.
She says, I want you to get thewinning bid.
He's shocked.
Uh, okay.
Why?
She puts it to him.
She has a whole villainsmonologue, like the movie The
Incredibles.
I have two pain in the butts.

(47:29):
I don't want to be partners withthem anymore.
If you outbid us, they're gonnago bankrupt.
I'm gonna remain rich, rich.
Matter of fact, I'm so rich, I'mjust gonna buy up their portion
and have my company back.
That's exactly what I'm doing.
I'm not even gonna pretend.
I'm so exhausted pretending tobe compliant.
That's what I'm gonna do.
So make sure you outbid us,okay?

(47:50):
Okay, bye-bye.
And he's like, okay, well, damn.
We'll do.
See you later, Angela.
Well, I don't know if it was heridea or if it was Richard's
idea.
I don't recall, and it's notthat important.
We just gotta detour just onemore time, real quick.
Let me tell you about ConnieGiannini.
Connie is minding her businessin her little catch-all room,

(48:12):
slash office, slash break room,whatever.
She's sipping wine because oh mygod, I just realized she has
she's paid to sip wine andchampagne all day.
So maybe she was a little bitdrunk when she went to go visit
Maggie on the last episode andannounced that she was in love
with her husband.
Maggie told Chase about it whenthey were having a small little
tiff.
So I suppose he just wants tosee if that really happened.

(48:32):
Now mind you, he knows good andwell.
Connie already told him to hisface what was up.
But he was just irresistible.
And he's like, Oh my god, Iknow.
I know, I know, I know.
I'm so sorry.
So on this episode, for somereason, he shows up, Connie's
sipping her wine, and he said,Maggie told me that you made
some remark about falling inlove with me.
She goes, Oh my god, I'm sosorry.

(48:54):
That was just that was reallywhat's the word she uses.
That was really clumsy of me.
But then he says, Well, thiscan't continue.
I guess she's thinking he'sfiring her.
And he's like, No, no, no.
He means something else, shemeans something else.
He goes, No, no, no, I'm notfiring you.
You're just a fine woman, you'rewonderful, fine as a not like,
oh, you fine, fine, but likeyou're fine, like 60s, fine,

(49:15):
whatever that means.
You're good, you're solid.
He's like, I don't want you toleave or anything.
I just we just gotta I justcan't afford.
And he's like stutter stepping.
I and as he's saying this, Ifinally really, really look at
his face.
I even had to rewind a littlebit.
I'm like, what the hell?
What?
Why?
So he's all but like, ah, Iguess because she confessed.

(49:37):
So now he knows it's real.
Like it's one thing to tell meyou think I'm hot.
It's quite another to drive allthe way to San Francisco and
tell my wife at work that youare in love with me.
That's totally different.
So maybe he just didn't have thelanguage to tell her that was
awkward and please don't do itagain.
But he's just like, I just can'tafford, I just can't afford it.
She's like, You can't affordwhat?

(49:57):
He turns around and he leaves.
Back to Helios.
It was either Angela's idea orit was Richard's idea to have
this party that is a prematurecelebration of the Helios deal.
The banker at the top of theshow told them that he would
call them at 9 p.m.
that Friday on the dot, not 9a.m., 9 p.m.

(50:20):
I guess giving everybody a full,you know, equal amount of time
to call in and make the properbid.
So Falconcrest is having aparty, Falconcrest being
Angela's house.
Cole Giaberdi is on his way.
This is before Melissa goes tojail.
Cole is dressed in his littlepenguin suit, and Melissa is
pissed because she didn't getinvited.

(50:44):
She didn't get invited, neitherdid Robin, but here comes Robin
down the stairs in Melissa'sdress.
A little sweetheart necklinefloral number.
It's cute.
Melissa said, I know you lineup.
Are you wearing my clothes?
She's pissed.
Robin's like, yeah, I figuredCole would want a date and you
weren't invited.
She's trying to rub it in herface.
She's like, well, yeah, Angeladon't like hoes in her house, so

(51:06):
you ain't invited either.
Melissa wants to fight again.
As far as she's concerned, Robinmay be pregnant.
She's not pregnant in her face.
So she goes to take game, andCole's like, hey, calm down,
calm down.
Robin, you shouldn't be boppingabout in your condition.
Robin says, For why?
Uh duh, I'm not gonna let a babycramp my lifestyle.

(51:28):
That's what I know.
Baby, one baby don't stop noshow.
One baby don't stop no hoe.
I'm gonna go to this party andhave me a good time.
Robin's like, why would I giveup partying for this fetus?
Cole says, get upstairs.
You are not going to this party.
Get upstairs and just state thatbaby.
Robin goes upstairs.
Melissa is pissed.

(51:49):
She's like, she has got toleave.
Cole, get her out of my house.
I can't stand looking at her.
Every time I look at her, Ithink of you two together.
He's way too comfortable for me.
And he keeps telling her,Melissa, this was your idea to
have this baby.
It wasn't mine's your idea.
Sir, that's not the point.
She's clearly trouble.
He doesn't care.
He's like, I mean, it is what itis.
We're gonna have to ride thisout.
It's only nine months.

(52:10):
I'll be back in a couple ofhours.
He heads over to Falcon Crest.
Now the party is absolutelystunning.
With watching over 200 shows atthis point, and I'm only on
season four.
Hold on, let me do that mathagain.
Yeah, it's over 200 episodes ofPrimetime Vintage Hope Operade.

(52:34):
I like rich 80s clothes.
I and it hurts, God, it hurts mychest to say this.
Man.
They know how to dress.
And this party is no different.
My girl Maggie, whoever is thestylist this season, is I mean,
I swear to you, they don't miss.
She's got on this beautiful rednumber.

(52:56):
It's just it's 80s.
It's got the shoulder pads, longsleeve.
It's beautiful though.
It there's nothing offensiveabout it.
It is so dope.
It is so gorgeous.
Angela looks beautiful in this,you know, she's wearing a mother
dress.
She's definitely somebody'smama, somebody's grandmama.
But it's sort of a oh god, asuper light pink.

(53:17):
Gorgeous.
Everybody looks great.
Richard looks rough.
So he shows up to the party.
Cassandra comes through andshe's got a real cute dress on,
too.
But as Richard enters the party,Chow Lee allows him in, or he
walks over to him with somechampagne.
And Chow Lee is not in the mood.
Cho Lee has had a long season.
He's been dealing with the wholelot.

(53:37):
Lance is destroyed.
You know, Lance is like his kid.
That's his, he's he's raisedLance just like Angela has.
So he feels away.
You run a foul of Lance, you runa foul of him.
You know, he loves him.
He sent him over with hisnephews.
Lorraine is not dead.
She's she's definitely in thecoma.
Like everybody knows that she'snot doing well.
So people are genuinelysurprised that Richard is at the

(53:59):
party for that reason.
They're like, you shouldprobably be in the hospital with
her.
He wants to hear the good news.
He needs a little good news.
But Chow Lee has time today.
Chow Lee says, in the calmestvoice he can muster, I know all
of the hearts and minds in thisparty are on the rain, and we
all hope she's okay.
Everybody here is gonna be coolto you because of that, but not

(54:21):
me.
I need you to know that I hateyou.
I hate your stinking guts forwhat you put Lance through, and
you deserve whatever fate awaitsyou.
He says it a little more classythan I am, but the fact that he
says it at all is alreadyunnerving because he don't
really say a lot.
And the fact that he said it socalmly leads me to believe that

(54:42):
it is absolutely up for Richard.
If someone calmly tells youthey're gonna destroy you,
believe them.
They calmly tell you, I'm gonnabeat you down.
It's gonna happen.
They've moved past the point ofscreaming at you.
All it is is raw focus.
That's terrifying.

(55:04):
Well, anyway, Cassandra comesover.
Now, mind you, Cassandra alreadyknows they're not gonna get this
deal.
She does have on a more 80s-ishdress.
It's like it's a white,sleeveless dress, sort of
roughed in the middle.
Not quite a sweetheart neckline,but it's it's the you know, it's
over your boobs, so it's boobshaped.

(55:27):
And then the bottom is black,and then just got like this sort
of chain thing that goes downthe middle of the dress.
It's cute too.
I don't like it as much, and Idon't know why I'm relieved.
It's still it's very, very 80s.
Like you wouldn't put it ontoday, but she looks great, and
she comes over to, you know, oh,I'm sorry, Richard.

(55:48):
Dang, woo, woo, woo.
And you can tell that she'sstart, she sort of feels bad.
Damon had mentioned earlier,like, why are all these other
people catching strays?
And she's like, I'm sorry,they're the ones who got in bed
with Angela.
Unfortunately, this is the priceyou pay for doing a deal with
the devil, but you can tell shedon't feel like a hundred
percent great about it.
Her claws are out all thisepisode, except when she talks

(56:09):
to Richard.
She's she's much more sort ofopen.
And the fact that he looks justdevastated.
This you don't kick somebodywhen they're down.
This is not the time to gloat.
Plus, she already knows he'sabout to lose all this money
anyway.
Terry is there and she has putaway the pageant hair for
tonight.
Thank god.
Her dress is killer.
It's not gold.
I'm very shocked to see her inblack and silver.

(56:29):
She's just trying to besupportive or whatever.
I don't really know why she'sthere.
I guess because she's rich andit's on her agenda.
She needed something to do.
The manimal goes over to donothing but rubber nose in it.
I shouldn't have never trustedyou.
I had my doubts.
Go away.
Fly away, morph into somethingmore important or a cockroach so
I can step on you.
Get out of her face.

(56:50):
I don't generally take up forTerry, but damn it, I'm sick of
this.
If she's here next season, Ihope she gains some sort of
self-esteem.
And God, I hope she she dateslike a renegade.
She needs somebody on amotorcycle, she needs somebody
fun to hell with the stuffy,vaguely British person, lawyer.
Can't stand him sometimes.
To hell with them animal.
Anyway, that's not important.

(57:12):
Angie has an announcement tomake.
Big perm has waffed her hairperfectly.
She's got on this gorgeous pinknumber with the sequins on the
shoulder.
It is very like powerful andfeminine.
It's soft.
So you don't know what she'sabout to say, but she's smiling.
You should always be nervous.
If she's wearing red or if she'ssmiling a little too hard, you
already know something's up.
So she's raising a toast and shesays, This is to the Helios

(57:37):
deal.
May the results be mostsatisfying.
A very vague toast.
Well, right about that time, thephone rings.
Angela says, Chase, Chase, mydear, why don't you do the
honors?
He walks his gorgeous pine overthere.
He picks up the phone and he'slike, Uh-huh.
Yeah.

(57:57):
Okay.
All right.
Uh-huh.
Hangs up.
He took it so well, I thoughtthe deal had gone through.
I thought she was gonna flip herlid and kick everybody out
because it went bad.
Nah, nah, nah, nah.
Chase turns around and he saysvery calmly, we didn't get the
deal.
Richard also says very calmly,Oh no, I'm bankrupt.

(58:20):
I don't know why everybody's sochill.
Maybe there's some sort of weirdgas inside of her house.
Everybody is taking everythingextremely well.
Richard's bankrupt.
Chase is pissed.
He snatches his boo thing outand they leave.
Maggie, come on.
Come on in that red dress.
Let's go.
I forgot to mention that Connielooks like Big Bird.
I do not like her ensemble.

(58:40):
It reminds me of a lady I usedto sit by in church when I was
really little.
Our church would travel aroundto different places.
And I was sitting by this oldlady one time and she had this
big yellow hat, big yellowdress, and she sneezed, and her
dentures have like popped out,and they was kind of hanging
over top of her lip.
It freaked me out.
I don't think I understood whatdentures were at that time.

(59:00):
I was thoroughly freaked out.
I was sort of pressed up againsther, so I couldn't really move.
It was horrible.
Connie's dress reminds me ofthat.
As soon as everybody leaves,Angela is elated.
She can't even like hide hersmile behind her wine.
She's like, oh my God.
Mammals get to work.
She wastes no time.
She says, Find out who holdsChase and Richard's note.

(59:22):
I'm gonna evict Chase and Maggiefrom that mausoleum they call a
house.
The mammal reminds her, look,you can't.
I know you're happy, but youcan't kick him out because he
inherited that house fair andsquare.
And she's like, Okay, yeah.
I forgot he was family for himand I forgot.
Damn.
All right, fine.
He can keep the house.
I can tolerate him as aneighbor.
But Tuscany Downs, she's like,she's gonna repo Richard's

(59:47):
house.
Tuscany Downs, she's gonna giveit to the Boy Scouts so they can
have their annual jamboree.
She don't even care.
She's being mad, reckless.
Meanwhile, Chase is in hismausoleum of a castle house and
he's angry.
He's telling Maggie, how How howthis is BS.
This is ridiculous.
He's sick of them.
Angela and Richard have beennothing but nasty to him from

(01:00:08):
the time they met him.
He ain't done nothing to nobody.
All he did was be born.
That's all he did.
I'm born.
I inherited some stuff.
I came back here.
I work it ain't like I stole it.
She just can't accept me and Ican't stand Richard.
He's sick of it.
He feels like this was a setupfrom them, Gidea.
They knew he had the leastamount of money, so he's taking
it extra personal because youknow he's he's always trying to

(01:00:29):
establish his name.
He's mad now.
He's not mad, he's angry, whichis scarier.
I forgot to mention he hasundone at least one, two, three,
four, four of his buttons.
I would tell you what, if Mr.
Foxworth ain't gonna do nothingelse, he's gonna show you the
chest hair.
He's gonna make sure you see it.
So he's just like, I'm so tired,Maggie.

(01:00:49):
I know they were behind it.
I know they were.
I'm tired of playing nice, I'mtired of rolling over, I'm tired
of playing games with them.
It's time to fight back, baby.
She don't know what he's talkingabout.
He's like, I'm gonna do this.
I'm gonna do it, Maggie.
I'm gonna finish this once andfor all.
Once and for all.
Now I don't know what he meansby that.
It's Chase.
He's probably just gonna give aspeech.
I can't imagine what he woulddo.

(01:01:10):
Luckily, he didn't have to thinkabout it for too long.
We'll get to that in a bit.
We gotta talk about something alittle more tender, a little
more loving, a little morebeautiful.
The Damon and Emma, I almostcall her Envy.
The Damon and Envy Emma saga.
I'd like to remind you one moretime that this is a finale, so

(01:01:31):
you should expect somedepartures.
It would appear that Lorraine isgone.
It would appear that Melissa isgoing to jail, technically gone.
Damon.
Damon wants to leave as well.
He can't stomach what's about tohappen next.
The Helio steel has fallenthrough.

(01:01:51):
The plan is set in motion.
He already knows what's up, andthe last thing he wants to do is
hurt Emma.
He takes her to Tuscany Downs.
And you know, she's sounderstanding.
They really do have aconnection.
He tells her he loves her, hecares about her.
And no matter what happens, Ineed you to know I love you.
I'm going away for a little bit,but just know that I really do

(01:02:13):
care for you.
He didn't have the guts.
I don't want to say he didn'thave the guts.
He stopped agreeing with this atthe top of the episode.
It's hard.
Emma really can't catch a break.
She can't seem to find a goodman, but it's alright.
He's going to space.
That's what's happening.
He is going to the SSEnterprise.
He's gonna be in space for avery long time.
I don't think he's coming back.

(01:02:34):
I haven't actually looked atStar Trek, but I feel like that
was the 90s.
Oh, maybe he's coming back.
Maybe.
Because this is what, 1985?
Maybe he comes back.
I don't know.
I'm afraid to look.
Anyway, I suppose in his mind,this is what he has to do.
This is his unfortunate means toan end.
He's swallowing the love, theurge to tell her what's going

(01:02:56):
on, the urge to kind of stealher away.
He just basically tells her tobe strong.
And I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
The losses are really stackingup at this point.
Richard has lost a child, agrandchild, a business, probably
his house.
He's about to lose his horseracing business.
He already doesn't have anyfriends.

(01:03:18):
This man fought tooth and nailand got nothing.
Climbed to the top of a two-footladder.
Nothing left to show.
Angela's riding high becauseshe's like, Yeah, I had to
swallow a lot of crap, but guesswhat?
I'm about to be on top, baby.
Let me buy up all this land, letme do what I need to do.
Free at last, free at last.
These people are gone to mylife.
Oh, it feels good.

(01:03:40):
Only she done realize there'sone more old lady who started
swallowing flies a long timeago.
So Angela is at her homechilling.
I'm like Richard.
She knows exactly why sheswallowed the fly.
But is her vision really thatclear?
Although she's more tactile andmore focused, she missed
something really major.

(01:04:01):
Richard and Chase had to borrowmoney to gain capital, I guess.
I might be saying thatincorrectly.
They had to borrow to get thecapital to buy their way into
the Helios deal.
Even though that deal fellthrough, they still owe that
money to all their creditors.
The creditors are not interestedin selling to Angela, only she

(01:04:22):
didn't know that.
She doesn't know that thecreditors would much rather have
her head on a platter.
Angela missed that CassandraWilder looked familiar.
She noticed her, but she didn'tnote it.
She overlooked it, which is verymuch unlike her.
If she'd listened to her gut,she might have saved herself a

(01:04:43):
very unpleasant visit.
She and in the study when inwalks Cassandra, a woman draped
in black with a beautiful facecard.
Matter of fact, side note beforewe get into it, this woman looks
just like Afton on Dallas,except older.
Beautiful face.
She walks in, Angela lookssubtle.

(01:05:04):
Now she didn't recognizeCassandra, but she definitely
recognizes Anna.
If she had remembered andlistened to her gut and noted
that Cassandra seemed familiar,she might have remembered that
there used to be a child inTuscany Valley named Cassandra.
A child who had a mother namedAnna and a father and a little

(01:05:25):
brother.
That little girl's fatherrefused to sell Angela his
vineyard years and years ago.
Angela decided, the exact samemany years ago, to shut off the
water supply to that man'svineyard.
She literally dammed up thereservoir.
Can you think of a moresupervillain move?

(01:05:46):
She already drives a Gotham Citycar.
You're poisoning the waterhole,you're stealing water.
I can't think of a more villainthing to do.
All she needs is like a laser ontop of her house pointed at the
next vineyard.
Anyway, Anna is recounting this.
She's like, Yeah, you shut offthe water supply to that
vineyard, which resulted in aloss of all of our crops, all of

(01:06:07):
our grapes, all of ourlivelihood.
Now the man who refused to sellto Angela was Anna's husband.
Anna's husband got really,really drunk one night, I guess,
over the stored wine that wasproperly stored.
And he decides he'll be damnedif Angela Channing gets every
piece of his property.

(01:06:27):
So he comes up with this cleveridea.
He's gonna just burn it to theground.
No problem because his wholefamily's out of town.
He could just do it, but that'snot the case.
In his drunken stupor, he forgotthat his family wasn't out of
town, they were in bed.
So he strikes a match, he lightsa house aflame.
Before you know it, he hears twosmall children screaming.

(01:06:49):
He immediately freaks out.
He goes to try to save thechildren, and he dies.
At this point in the story,Cassandra chimes in.
I watch my father burn to death.
Angela's listening, this like,well, damn.
I mean, I mean, it sucks tosuck, but okay, which what is

(01:07:09):
she doing here?
Okay, and then and then's littlesong.
Anna swallow the fly.
Her fly was pain.
She then raised two children togrow up to be bright and
business savvy.
They opened their own ad agencyand became really successful.

(01:07:30):
They contacted Richard Channing,the one-third owner of
Falconcrest.
They pitched an ad campaign toFalconcrest, including the other
partners, Chase and Angela.
They win the campaign and thenthey introduce a second deal
with Helios, a huge conglomeratethat is gonna take Falconcrest
to the next level.
Only Cassandra never wanted herclient to succeed.

(01:07:55):
They banked on bankruptingFalconcrest from the Gidea,
purchasing it from Angela andleaving her destitute.
Cassandra proudly announces toAngela that she is now
two-thirds owner of Falconcrest,and me and my mama are gonna
make you crazy.
My brother, Damon Ross, akaDamien Rossini, which is their

(01:08:18):
government name.
Amen.
The family name.
He couldn't be here.
But yeah, that's who it is.
Ta-da, Angela.
We okay dote you, and me and mymama are gonna make you
miserable.
We're gonna run your life intothe ground.
We're gonna make it hell in yourlife.
Bum boom bum.
Angela's sitting there, like,well damn.
I smiled at like three peopletoday.
This is terrible.

(01:08:40):
You know what?
They might make it hard for herfor a little bit, but if we
don't know nothing else, I knowAngela is that chick.
I know she's a gangster.
I know I'm not worried about it.
I am highly entertained, but Iam not worried about it.
I also wasn't worried about whatcame next.
Go on to fill up your drinkagain, y'all.
This this is the best part.
This is the absolute best part.

(01:09:01):
Last episode, when Melissa metRichard in the park to try to
get him to help her out, and hewas like, I don't know who we
is.
She tried to seduce him.
I made the comment that youcan't seduce a man in pastels.
You can't seduce a man in butteryellow clothing.
Damn, I was wrong.
You can seduce a man in butteryellow clothing as long as you

(01:09:22):
strategically cutcleavage-bearing parts of it.
You gotta be real clever withit.
I.e.
Connie Giannini.
So Connie Giannini is back inher faux office.
It seems like it's the middle ofthe day.
Maybe it's the evening.
I don't really know.
She's always there.
She ain't got no life, she'snever home.
All she does is sip wine all dayand wait for Chase to show up.
This is the first time she'sever dressed sexy.

(01:09:42):
Okay.
Grandma look at the party.
I'm not just hating.
It just wasn't a cute dress.
It really wasn't.
But today she's like, I'm gonnakeep the yellow color wing, but
I'm gonna make it sexy.
So she's wearing ashoulder-less, backless,
cleavage boostier,boop-boop-poopy thing with sort
of a very cool geometricneckline that shows the boobs,

(01:10:05):
but it's also like classy enoughto wear to work.
She's wearing a little jacketover it because I mean, you
know, you can't show it all atonce.
She says, Chase, I got an idea.
I know you're going through it.
I know you're upset right now,but I have a brilliant idea.
We're great partners.
Why don't you come over toGiannini Wines?

(01:10:26):
And he's like, What?
She's drawn up a contract.
You and I could be 50-50partners.
You know, you're you're awinemaker.
You're a vignette.
What do you call them?
A vineyard, the vignettes, avineyard of the you're a
winemaker, man.
Be a winemaker.
It's in your blood.
And he's like, Well, I mean,Connie, honest to God, this is
right on time.

(01:10:46):
I can't really say no.
Let me have my lawyer look overit, but I mean, I do need some
money.
He's like, Yeah.
You already know what you'redoing.
I don't know how to make wine.
You don't know how to makechampagne.
We might as well do the samething, but just do it in my
house.
He's like, okay, cool.
This was up.
He's dead.
He's had a rough night.
He's like, Connie, I just Idon't know how to thank you.

(01:11:07):
That's her cue.
I just went back again.
Maybe I was a little you can seeall the cleavage.
There's nothing subtle here.
Nothing.
It's a halter neck.
So it's super thin strapped.
She's wearing this black jacketover it.
Sitting in front of that giantIBM.
Giant 600-pound computer with atiny, tiny screen.

(01:11:30):
Connie, I don't know how I couldthink.
She says, Well, you better thinkof something.
And fast.
Now he looks hesitant.
And then she leans in, shestarts kissing, she starts
running her fingers through hishair.
He doesn't back up.
As a matter of fact, he embracesit.
He's running his hands all upand down her backless dress
back.

(01:11:51):
He wanted it.
In a turn of events, I don'tknow why I didn't see this
coming.
I did not see this coming.
He was not interested.
And this is this is ChaseGioverdi.
This didn't one of the otherdudes on the other shows.
He has never strayed, andneither one of them ever looked
at nobody else.
Not really.
Maggie almost had an affair withthat one dude, but she was like,
oh, he was lame.

(01:12:11):
Plus, look what she has at home.
No.
Chase is running his hands upand down her back, letting her
ruin his coff with her hands.
Oh Lord.
I was, I, I, the gasp, I gust, Icouldn't even believe it.
I can't even believe I'm tellingyou now.
I can't believe this happened.
You know what else happened?
Maggie Giaberdi just happened tobe in town that day.
She comes through with this icegray, ice blue number, opens the

(01:12:36):
door, and all she sees is herman's hand stroking up and down
Connie Giannini's hoeish back.
Maggie being Maggie.
She doesn't turn up.
God, if that was Melissa, therewould have been bottles flying
all across the room.
But Maggie Gia Bernie damn nearpolitely waits.
And then she says, I'd like totalk to my husband.

(01:12:57):
Connie turns all with her mouthall open.
Now, this is the thing that getsme.
I don't understand why Connieturned heel all of a sudden.
There was no reason to come atMaggie like that.
All of a sudden, she just got, Iguess she felt like Angela gave
her permission last last time.
Okay, Maggie, I want your man.
Maggie didn't take herseriously.
She kind of did.
I could tell she wanted to popher in the face, but she didn't.

(01:13:19):
So Connie sachets out.
She slings the jacket over hershoulder.
She does hit Maggie.
It's ridiculous.
Here's the other part.
So they've been building, youknow, she's working a lot.
He doesn't like it, but he neverseemed like it really bothered

(01:13:40):
him that much until last weekwhere he couldn't get the
cookie.
It's annoying, but it's notlike, oh my god, our marriage is
in trouble.
I just wouldn't buy that.
This is my fault.
This is me.
This is a jet mistake.
I wasn't taking it seriously.
So when Connie made the moves, Iwas shocked.
I kind of thought Conniewouldn't be on this episode,
honestly.

(01:14:00):
Anyway, back to Maggie.
Maggie tells Chase, I'm gonnahave my teams collected and gone
by the time you get to thatmausoleum of a castle house.
I don't have anything more to dowith you or your house or this
business.
You can tell she's been sittingon that for a long time.

(01:14:22):
You wouldn't think a one, likethis is a one-off.
Y'all been married 20 plusyears.
This is a one-off.
That reaction, okay, yes, youwere free to have whatever
reaction.
It's not wrong, but to be like,I can't stand you, I can't stand
your business, I can't standyour house.
Where'd this come from?
Do you know what Chase says?
He don't apologize, he doesn't,oh baby, please, baby, baby, no,

(01:14:44):
baby, please.
No.
He says, Well, fine.
She tells him you can keep yourvineyards and your conniving
little girlfriend, and don't youdare come near me.
You know my office number.
Have your attorney call mine.
He gets fish.
As she leaves, he runs over.
Well, that's fine.
That's fine.
Then he goes off.
You start to see where Cole getsthat terrible attitude from.
Y'all, he tears this office up.

(01:15:06):
He's flipping things around.
He's punching bottles off thewall, slinging empty barrels,
flips the desk over with that300-pound computer, which is
very impressive.
And there's the first littleexplosion.
It blows up.
It's like, oh, that's awesome.
I feel like that was adelightful little treat.
It gets better.
It gets better.
So, Chase, so Chase and Maggieare on the out.

(01:15:29):
She can't believe he was fillingup this hussy with her side boob
all out.
It was horrible.
And he liked it.
He wanted it.
Maggie's a money-making woman.
Now she's just got to get hermind together.
She's got to leave.
By this point, everybody knowsabout Lorraine.
Maggie's at Falcon Crest.
She can't very well go to Colebecause I'm sure Cole would come
over there and find his father.
I know he would.
He don't play about his mama.

(01:15:50):
She doesn't like Angela likethat.
She likes Emma, but she ain'ttrying to go over there.
She ain't trying to do that.
She goes to the only place shecan.
Her friend Richard.
Now they had developed a goodrelationship all this season.
They bonded over being adopted.
He hired her at the station.
He gave her carte blanche.
She could do whatever she wantedat the station because he
believed in her.
They were cool.
The only out they had wasLorraine and Lance thing.

(01:16:12):
But you know what?
With Lorraine being gone, it'stime to not be petty.
Let's go over there.
Let me tell them I'm so sorry tohear about her.
The only problem with this,y'all, remember last episode?
There were no less than threethreats made on Richard's life,
and somebody's making good on itthis episode.
In true Falcon Crest style, a laseason, was that two?

(01:16:34):
End of season one, season two.
We have a glove culprit walkingall the way through Richard's
house, touching all sorts ofthings.
Now he's upstairs.
He's in duress.
He doesn't understand thatthere's somebody downstairs.
Somebody is touching all sortsof stuff.
Specifically, this really 80sgrandfather clock on the wall.
I guess it's not a grandfatherclock if it's on the wall.

(01:16:56):
A clock with a chime on thewall.
Gloved hand touching everylittle thing.
Eventually, Richard hearssomething.
So he goes downstairs, and rightabout the time he goes
downstairs, he hears arat-a-tat-tat at the door.
It's Maggie.
Maggie is crying.
You know, Lorraine just died.
But he sees her face and they'refriends enough to know he's

(01:17:17):
like, I mean, she wouldn't becrying as hard over Lorraine
dying.
Nobody cries over dead people onthe show.
She was zoned out at the lastfuneral she was at.
There was a triple funeral atthe beginning of this season.
She didn't cry like that.
So he's like, honey, these tearscan't all be from Lorraine.
What's going on?
She just sort of melts into hisarm.

(01:17:38):
Oh Richard, oh Richard, I just,I just, and do you know?
Do you know?
I can't even say it out loud.
Richard starts caressing her forthe first time.
This is the first time I evergot that vibe.
I was like, oh my God.
Oh my God.
No.
Oh my God.
Is this happening?
It happened.
Richard and Maggie.

(01:17:59):
Passionate kiss.
Oh my god.
It's it's crazy.
Deep passionate.
I'm like, that would havetriggered it.
Maybe.
I mean, okay, in all honesty,he's having a rough day.
She's having a rough day.
It's just, it's, you know.
But unbeknownst to them, thatclock has been set with a little
more than a tick, tick, tick.
There's a tick, tick, boom.

(01:18:20):
So while they're in the throesof this passionate surprise
kiss, tell me why the wholehouse blows up.
Boom.
End scene.
True Falcon Crust.
I was fully expecting anexplosion.
I didn't really know how it wasgoing to happen.
I didn't really think about itbeing Richard's house.
And I'm so silly.
The first time I saw it, I'vewatched it twice.

(01:18:43):
I'd had to run it back.
I thought a bridge blew up.
And then I looked again and Iwas like, no, that's his super
sleek, super chic, very 80smodern house.
Blown to bits and pieces whilehe's caressing Maggie Pooh in
his arms, his brother's wife.
But you know what?
They're not brothers like that.
So Lord have mercy.
What a betrayal.
Do you know the worst betrayal?

(01:19:04):
The worst betrayal in all ofthis is me.
I kind of like Maggie andRichard together.

SPEAKER_00 (01:19:16):
I listen, I didn't, I didn't know it was coming.
I didn't know that was coming.
I I I like I don't know if theylike their kiss.
I like their kiss.
I feel very bad, but I I liketheir kiss.
I like it.

SPEAKER_01 (01:19:33):
Tens across the board.
I enjoy that top to bottom.
Good little surprises.
Did not see that coming.
A lot of that is just me notacknowledging that there was
something.
They've never cheated, you knowwhat I mean?
They've never even gotten close,really, before to cheating on
each other.
So why would it happen to?
I'm telling y'all, they bothkids.
He had his hands all in herhair.
She she up on her tippy toes.

(01:19:54):
Girl, I'm gonna tell you what,they was gonna go upstairs.
That's what they was finna do.
Unfortunately, the stairs are,or fortunately, however you look
at it, the stairs are gone.
And quite possibly them.
I don't know why I didn't evenI'm just not realizing that.
So I guess if the contracts arecool next season, they'll be
back.
I'm not worried like a normalperson would if you've never

(01:20:15):
seen this before.
I'm not worried because theysurvived a plane crash.
They've done more with less.
I'm sure somehow he had somesort of plate in his.
I don't know.
I don't think they're gone.
And if not, uh is Connie whatthe hell?
I don't know.
All right, guys, that's it.
That's all.
We gotta get ready for the nextepisode.
I think we're gonna jump intoDynasty next and save Knott's

(01:20:38):
Landing for last.
I want to do all four of season,excuse me, all three of season
four's finales, and then we'lljump into Knott's Landing.
Truth be told, I think Knott'sLanding might make me cry.
That show makes me veryemotional.
I'm positive I'm not gonna sheda tear from Dynasty.
All right, y'all.
In the meantime, in betweentime, don't swallow more than
you can handle.

(01:20:58):
Only make necessary moves, leavea little space, and for God's
sakes, don't piss off six peoplein a row.
Stay hydrated, stay moisturized,mind your own business, and keep
all of your drama on TV.
