Check out this CBS promo for DALLAS & FALCON CREST, in the mid eighties. This junction in the two series resulted in a turning point, for both shows. More so for DALLAS, as an all important character said his goodbyes. The next season of FALCON CREST i.e. five was not as gothic, with a lot of variety i.e. the focus wasn't on one particular guest star or story arc. You know it was hard to keep up! Season 7 was similar, in this respect.
Angela is having breakfast alone. Chao-Li appears from the kitchen; with a tray; (a scene from season 4, 1984 - '85):
Angela: "Chao-Li what have you got there?"
Chao-Li: "Lance and Emma requested breakfast, in their rooms."
Angela: "Put that right down! Tell Lance and Emma if they want to eat they can come down here and join me!"
Chao-Li: "Yes Mrs. Channing!"
The front door bell chimes. Angela goes to see who is there. The Channing's new neighbour German cartel honcho Gustav Riebmann is standing holding a bunch of yellow roses. Gustav has an alias Jean-Louis deBercy (a French real estate business owner), who everybody believes he is.
deBercy: "Ah Mrs. Channing!"
Angela: "What are you doing here?"
deBercy: "I was hoping to have a word, with Emma."
Angela: "Well you may not! I don't like you deBercy and I don't want to see you, around here anymore!"
deBercy: "I'm sorry you feel that way! Will you see she gets these please?"
Angela snaps the yellow roses from him and slams the door.
Chao-Li: "Did I hear someone, at the door?"
Angela: "No!"
Angela hands him the flowers: "Get those in the trash!"
Chao-Li looks at them, as Angela returns to her breakfast.
