Rachel Confronts Iris About Being "The Chief"

In the summer of 1988, Cory Publishing was the object of an attempted takeover by Bennett Publishing, whose contact was known only to Mac Cory as "The Chief." After a summer of hell, during which Mac was framed for murder, spent time in jail, and nearly lost the company he spent his entire life building, Mac's estranged daughter Iris Cory Wheeler returned to Bay City and reconciled with him. In the spring of 1989 when client and personal Cory friend Felicia Gallant was on trial for the murder of Jason Frame, Mac's wife Rachel learned that Iris was "The Chief". In these scenes she confronts Iris about being "The Chief" and insists that Mac know the truth first before the rest of Bay City does, meaning Iris has to tell Mac immediately since Iris is testifying at Felicia's trial the next morning...or Rachel will tell him herself.

Is there video of Iris on the witness stand? Is there video of Mac's reaction after Iris leaves the Cory Mansion? How soon after this did Douglass Watson die?

Yes, I do have Iris on the witness stand at Felicia's trial. Mac throwing Iris out of the Cory Mansion is in the clip titled "Iris Confesses to Mac That She Was "The Chief." I also have the next day with Mac and Rachel, and Mac's memories of Iris (including flashbacks from 1988 and '89). Douglass Watson passed away about seven or eight weeks after this, I believe.

Donna was the one who discovered that Iris was "the Chief." Donna inadvertently heard Iris on the phone with someone we (the audience) didn't see and identifying herself as "the Chief." Donna then told Cass, who was representing Felicia. Cass told Rachel because Rachel and Mac were also his friends and his clients, and after talking to Cass, Rachel confronted Iris, seen here.

Sadly, yes, SN yanked AW from the air after showing an episode on April 6, 2007, and has no plans to return it to the schedule. :-(

I love watching VW tear up the scenery! NBC NBSUX!

Rachel is so bad!

She is and always will be my girl.

This is so brilliant... I remember this when it originally was broadcast. How ironic that Doug Watson died shortly after Mac was told that Iris was "the Chief"....

[tallderektoronto]

This was so sad, right after Mac found out pour Doug Watson passed on and they wrote it into the script. As characters, Iris never got forgiveness from Mac.

This scene is EMMY material. I loved Carmen Duncan as Iris. It is to bad that the character could not have stayed on the show until it was cancelled. TPTB should have never let her go!!!
