The Avenging Angel

Beim Versuch, Richard und Chase auf hinterhältige Weise in die Pleite zu treiben, wird Angela ausgetrickst. Mit Entsetzen muss sie erkennen, dass sie in eine Falle gelaufen ist. Connie Giannini bietet Chase an, das Weingut ihres Vaters gemeinsam zu betreiben. Als sie ihr Geschäft mit einer herzlichen Umarmung besiegeln, werden sie von Maggie überrascht. Wutentbrannt flieht Maggie in das Haus ihres Schwagers Richard. Kurz darauf explodiert eine Bombe, und Richards Haus fliegt in die Luft.

Angela's scheme to regain control of Falcon Crest falls through when she assumes Chase and Richard will be bankrupt after a competitor wins the Helios bid. However, she is unaware that Cassandra Wilder holds the liens on their shares. Cassandra's mother, Anna Rossini, has come for long-awaited vengeance against Angela, now that her daughter owns two-thirds of Falcon Crest. At the winery, Connie offers to make Chase a partner in Giannini Winery. Maggie walks in and catches them in a celebratory embrace. Enraged, she announces she will be moving out that evening. Angela testifies on Melissa's behalf, which gives her a lenient sentence of 60 days in jail, in return for the Agretti harvest. As Lorraine's condition deteriorates rapidly due to brain damage, Lance must sign the release to remove her from life-support systems. As Maggie and Richard comfort each other that evening, an explosion rips through his house, trapping them.
