# 062 <3.22> The Gathering Storm Cast and crew background: RAY GOLDSTONE, one of the two writers of this episode, is the new supervising ANN MARCUS' brother. She has been working on the show since # 056.
  Props: The chairs in the turret area of the Gioberti House living room are from the same stack of prop chairs usually used in the tasting room at the Falcon Crest Winery Building (compare screen grab 1 from # 061).
Edited scene: Angela's breakfast on the Falcon Crest Victorian Mansion terrace at the beginning of act 2 was initially longer: The scene started with Chao-Li realizing how worried Angie is about Julia and encouraging her. The scene was completely filmed, but edited in post-production to stay in the one-hour program frame on CBS. In the final version of the episode, however, Angela's smile as a reaction to Chao-Li's encouraging words can still be seen at the very beginning of the segment.  Uncredited stand-in GORDON HODGINS appears as an extra again — this time in his usual rôle as a Tuscany Valley gentleman, passing by the entrance of The New San Francisco Globe.Compare # 182 for a list of appearances throughout the series. For details about GORDON HODGINS, compare # 001.
Early script drafts staged the scene in the New Globe foyer with Richard, Pamela and Ron Lafferty at the Tuscany Downs construction site.
 Uncredited extra PAUL VAN appears in his usual rôle as the mustached Tuscany Valley doctor again — this time at Carter St. John's presentation.Compare # 227 for biographical details about this minor rôle and a list of all his appearances throughout the series. For details about the extra, compare # 014.  Uncredited extra SHARRI ZAK appears as the gray-haired Tuscany Valley socialite with the pony tail again; this episode attending Carter St. John's presentation.Compare # 202 for biographical details about this rôle and a list of appearances throughout the series. For details about the extra, compare # 009.
Original script drafts had a police officer named Buck (played by JOHN CRAWFORD) get to know Julia at Lucas' farm in this episode. This scene, however, did not make it to the final version of this episode. The storyline was moved to # 065, and the Officer Buck character was remodeled into Deputy Scott (TOM McFADDEN).
 The red Volvo 242 DL sedan (compare # 055 for details) is used as a prop again; it is parked on the street near Linda and Cole's house this time (red arrow).Further back on this street, the golden Ford Maverick, a well known picture car, is parked (yellow arrow; check # 001 for details).   Mistake: In the scene in front of Cole and Linda's house, Joseph's position is different in the wide angle shot and the subsequent close-up.This is a mistake caused by the particular close-up filming technique — check # 001 (Chase and Maggie at the Gioberti Family Cemetery) for details. The street number of Cole and Linda's house is 421. Early script drafts planned for Lance not to give up after being rejected by Terry on the phone. They included a scene in which he would appear at Michael's house in order to talk Terry into another sexual encounter, but she would throw him out. Script revisions changed the location to a café: Lance comes on to Terry again, but she rejects him. This version of the scene was filmed outside the Sheraton Town House Hotel in L.A., but removed in post-production. Deleted scene: Another scene that was filmed, but did not become part of the final version of the episode was Angela's frustration about too many winery workers being busy riddling the bottles of Cole and Chase's Champagne project in the Falcon Crest Winery Building; this scene also included winery foreman Ben Thompson (J. VICTOR LOPEZ), who eventually appeared in # 063 in the final version.
 The scene with Lance and Phillip in downtown San Francisco is actually filmed on Pershing Square in front of the Biltmore Hotel (nowadays Millennium Biltmore Hotel) in Los Angeles (compare # 043 for a similar scene with Richard and Phillip).Early script drafts staged the San Francisco scene with Lance and Phillip in Phillip's office.  Inside joke: Besides Maggie Gioberti's name (room 106), the prop patient list at the Tuscany Valley Hospital contains names of a few uncredited crew members, including CARMINE GOGLIA (room 105), the painters' foreman in the show's construction department, CARL CASSARA (room 101), CAROL DeCARR (room 103) and FRANK DiPANNI (room 104) from the swing gang as well as KATHY HAY (misspelled "Haye" on the prop; room 107), one of the assistant prop masters.← Previous episode... → Next episode... |
