00:00:00Welcome back, Eddie has showbiz now.
00:00:02Good morning and welcome to Daily News.
00:00:05I'm your host Amanda.
00:00:06Our story today is about Ben Cooper,
00:00:09a rising actor and recent Oscar nominee
00:00:11who made a ripple in the acting industry
00:00:13after his performance in his recent movie Maximizer.
00:00:17His Instagram numbers have now risen from 50.2 million
00:00:20to over 100 million just over the span of two days,
00:00:24which is quite an achievement for someone as young as he is.
00:00:30Do you have any idea what you've done?
00:00:38I don't know.
00:00:41I'm not sure if I can do this.
00:00:43What did I even do?
00:00:45Well, you're not going to be getting any supporting roles anymore.
00:00:50Why?
00:00:52Because you are going to be the lead.
00:00:56You will be the biggest star ever.
00:01:02Fasten your seatbelt then.
00:01:04It's time to fly.
00:01:10Everything just feels so unreal.
00:01:13That's what happens when you become a star.
00:01:15What's with the fun?
00:01:21No.
00:01:24I'm tired of saying please and sorry and next time.
00:01:29It's just best not to respond at all.
00:01:31Now I know what my old managers were doing before all this.
00:01:35Tricks of the trade.
00:01:36But don't you worry.
00:01:37Everyone who was ignoring you before will be after you.
00:01:40You are a superstar.
00:01:46A lot of moment of peace.
00:01:49Hello?
00:01:58I'm saving that right now.
00:02:01What is it now?
00:02:02You're scaring me.
00:02:03You're scaring me.
00:02:03You're scaring me.
00:02:04You're scaring me.
00:02:05You're scaring me.
00:02:06You're scaring me.
00:02:07You're scaring me.
00:02:08You're scaring me.
00:02:09I think we're in trouble.
00:02:25Okay.
00:02:31Please speak up.
00:02:32Please speak up.
00:02:33Hi.
00:02:34Hi.
00:02:35Sorry.
00:02:36I was just wondering if you've rescheduled my interview at all.
00:02:39Yes.
00:02:41My name is Blake.
00:02:43Number 56.
00:02:48There are no sauce left.
00:02:51Um.
00:02:52I'm sorry.
00:02:52But you told me to wait.
00:02:57No.
00:02:58No.
00:02:58This isn't fair.
00:02:59You need to reconsider me.
00:03:01What?
00:03:02Hello?
00:03:02Hello?
00:03:04What?
00:03:05You've got to be kidding me.
00:03:10I'm never going to get an acting job.
00:03:16Who's...
00:03:16I'm tired of telling you I failed, Mum.
00:03:24Well, I mean, I guess she's right I didn't give up too soon.
00:03:27I think it's time to prove them wrong.
00:03:36You've got this, Blake.
00:03:41Hi.
00:03:42Um, I want an appointment with Manager Alan.
00:03:47Yeah, I knew you would refuse.
00:03:48Listen, I've got a very interesting story to tell him.
00:03:52Screw you.
00:03:57I don't need your approval anyway.
00:04:03People just need gossip.
00:04:08Hello?
00:04:12This case is way more important than your court proceedings.
00:04:14Now, I'm sure someone's just trying to defame Ben with his rumours.
00:04:21He's not in a relationship.
00:04:24Ben hasn't been in a relationship for a year.
00:04:27No, it's not about being in a relationship.
00:04:30People are saying that he's...
00:04:32That he's dating his male co-star, Thomas.
00:04:39I've got an important call.
00:04:40I'll call you back.
00:04:42Why do people think I'm over-exaggerating?
00:04:43What?
00:04:51What story?
00:04:52Send her it.
00:04:58Hey, what story?
00:04:59Who are you?
00:05:02Well, uh...
00:05:03There's not really a story as such.
00:05:06I...
00:05:07It's as important as that.
00:05:12Okay.
00:05:13Since you, you know, don't really talk to commoners often, I just wanted to come here in person
00:05:20and tell you that your agency is the worst I've ever seen.
00:05:25Okay.
00:05:26You know you're scamming people, right?
00:05:29That's what people say when they don't get a job here.
00:05:31Okay, not getting a job is different.
00:05:32You guys are...
00:05:33You guys ditched me for my interview.
00:05:35Look, I've got a lot to deal with, so can you please do your rand elsewhere?
00:05:44Are you going to go or am I going to have to get someone to take you away?
00:05:47Okay, look, um...
00:05:51I'm sorry, I just...
00:05:53I really need a job right now.
00:05:57This isn't a request sent, though.
00:05:59Please.
00:06:01Okay.
00:06:02Well, you know what?
00:06:03I hope karma bites you with it.
00:06:08Sorry.
00:06:09Are you blind?
00:06:10Get your eyes fixed.
00:06:15Who is that?
00:06:16Just a jobless nobody.
00:06:20Right.
00:06:26We need to focus on the people who do recognise you.
00:06:28Ben, I can't prove you're not gay.
00:06:32I don't understand why these reporters enjoy writing fake stories about me.
00:06:38It's how they make their money.
00:06:40Is it harmful for my image?
00:06:42Is it...
00:06:44You can date who you want to, but there's rumours.
00:06:49Like, it ruins your identity.
00:06:52Like, do you really want to come out like that?
00:06:55Obviously not.
00:06:56And I've been contacted by Thomas' manager.
00:06:59He wants me to address the issue as soon as possible.
00:07:01Just release a statement.
00:07:02I've been telling the reporters these rumours aren't true,
00:07:05but they keep on printing stories to say that they are.
00:07:07What difference would a statement make?
00:07:11What if we did something to distract from the story?
00:07:16Like what?
00:07:17Like...
00:07:18What if I were to date a girl?
00:07:23That's the dumbest thing ever.
00:07:25Well, it would kill the boss.
00:07:27I don't know.
00:07:28It'd put us on the right path
00:07:30to fix Thomas' image and my identity.
00:07:35My question is how.
00:07:40I have a brilliant idea.
00:07:41Everything sucks.
00:08:01You know what?
00:08:03I've decided I'm not leaving my room.
00:08:05I'm not staying here for eternity.
00:08:11It's settled.
00:08:17I mean...
00:08:18I mean, I don't want to have to go back to my village, but...
00:08:23I've got no one wants to go.
00:08:26I mean, everyone will laugh at me if I go back.
00:08:32I mean...
00:08:32I won't go back.
00:08:34I don't want to...
00:08:39I thank you.
00:08:43I...
00:08:44I don't want to have to go because I...
00:08:47I think I have to go back.
00:09:14It's time to go home.
00:09:17I think I have to go back.
00:09:24I think I have to go back.
00:09:34Nope.
00:09:35Nope.
00:09:37Completely not.
00:09:39I'm sorry.
00:09:41I'm going to blow my skin close.
00:09:44What is it, Mum?
00:09:56Um, hey.
00:09:59Yeah.
00:10:00Well, I'm Alan.
00:10:04I hope you remember me.
00:10:06You just came to visit me a while ago?
00:10:08Um, yeah.
00:10:09Yeah, hi.
00:10:10Hello.
00:10:11Hi.
00:10:12Can we meet?
00:10:13I have a job for you.
00:10:19I'm still not happy with this idea of yours.
00:10:26Sorry, what did you say?
00:10:27Your idea.
00:10:28It's absurd.
00:10:29I'm just saving my reputation.
00:10:31Covering a lie with another lie.
00:10:33Well, everybody lies.
00:10:34People will believe anything.
00:10:35Well, try this so you can't blame me for not saving you later.
00:10:40Let's hope this girl doesn't go crazy after listening to her job requirements.
00:10:42She won't go crazy.
00:10:43I got a different vibe from her.
00:10:44You sure?
00:10:45I'm sure.
00:10:46Send her in.
00:10:51Still not sure about this girl.
00:10:55Let's hope this girl doesn't go crazy after listening to her job requirements.
00:10:59She won't go crazy. I got a different vibe from her.
00:11:02You sure?
00:11:03I'm sure.
00:11:08Send her in.
00:11:10Still not sure about this girl.
00:11:14Come in.
00:11:18Please, take a seat.
00:11:21Thanks for coming in so soon.
00:11:23Well, I'm actually surprised.
00:11:25Didn't know my words had such an impact on you.
00:11:27Well, I feel really bad the way I treated you before.
00:11:31So, I got a job for you.
00:11:35Oh, I hope you've, you know...
00:11:37Oh, sorry. It's not so much of a job, more of a favour.
00:11:48This is all, um...
00:11:51So, what do you think, Blake?
00:11:55So, you want me to fake date Ben, for time being?
00:11:59Yeah. It's as simple as that.
00:12:01Okay, but...
00:12:04Who's Ben?
00:12:08How do you not know Ben?
00:12:09Like, you haven't seen his movies, or dramas, or anything like that?
00:12:15I'm not really a social person, so...
00:12:20You know, whatever happens in showbiz, I don't know about.
00:12:22Yeah, but still, like...
00:12:23Who doesn't know Ben?
00:12:26Me, apparently.
00:12:30I am Ben.
00:12:32Will you do me the spagol?
00:12:34No.
00:12:41No.
00:12:54That was...
00:12:56That was Ben.
00:12:59The...
00:12:59The Ben Cooper.
00:13:01I can't believe that just happened!
00:13:08Oh, my God.
00:13:09Oh, my God.
00:13:10Oh, my God.
00:13:11I'm so stupid not to recognise him.
00:13:14What the...
00:13:17I...
00:13:20I...
00:13:20I can't do it.
00:13:23I don't think I can ever let something like that happen to me.
00:13:31I guess I've got to keep packing, then.
00:13:39Yeah.
00:13:40Um...
00:13:40I...
00:13:41Yeah, mom, guess what I have.
00:14:11Ew. Okay, I would rather die than marry that bastard.
00:14:26Hey. You need to relax.
00:14:35I'm so jealous of you right now. I'm dying of anxiety and you're just chilling in your
00:14:40house. And on top of that, you're asking me to relax? Are you crazy or what?
00:14:45I told you an excellent plan. Now it's your part to play. Just make it work.
00:14:50Yeah, fine. It was an amazing plan. Fine. It was a really good plan.
00:14:56Why are you so stubborn about this girl? Why can't I find you another one? A better one.
00:15:01One that's a better actor.
00:15:02No. It has to be this girl. I told you, if I'm doing this, she has to be my fair girlfriend.
00:15:08Then we can't delay this any longer.
00:15:11I agree. So convince her.
00:15:14Give me one good reason why it has to be this girl. And if it's reasonable, I will do whatever you want.
00:15:21Well, for starters, she's different. Right? When I first met her, she didn't even recognize me. If we want to do this, right, it plays better if she's not obsessed with me. It makes it more believable.
00:15:36Yeah, I'm sorry. Ben's already giving an interview right now.
00:15:51All right. I'll book him in for an interview with you as well.
00:15:55Yeah.
00:15:57All right.
00:15:59Ben's stubbornness girl is the next level.
00:16:05Please pick up Blake.
00:16:10We need a plan B.
00:16:17Who is it?
00:16:21It's me.
00:16:23Blake.
00:16:24Please come in.
00:16:27Take a seat.
00:16:32I hope we're alone in here.
00:16:34Oh, of course.
00:16:39I need me back.
00:16:41I need a job, Alan.
00:16:43Oh, of course. It's what we offered you in the first place.
00:16:46No, no. A proper job with a proper designation.
00:16:50Look. Look, I'll do anything. Okay, but I can't do this. What will I tell my parents? That I'm, what, someone's fake girlfriend? That's not something I would want to tell them.
00:17:04Blake, it's what I said. It's not a job. It's more of a favor.
00:17:09Okay, fine. Then I can't do it then.
00:17:13Blake, please help us with this.
00:17:16I really wish I could help you, Alan. But...
00:17:22I can't. I'm really sorry.
00:17:25I'm really sorry.
00:17:27Oh, Blake, please. Come on.
00:17:34Why didn't you tell me she was here? You know that I'm looking for her and I can't find her and you just let her go?
00:17:39Blake, she didn't give me the chance. She just walked right out.
00:17:42And what is it with you, Ben? Like, I've never seen you this way before unless you really respect someone.
00:17:51Oh my god. Oh my god. Ben's fallen in love.
00:17:57No, no, I haven't. It's nothing like that. It's not.
00:18:00Then what? What is it with her?
00:18:02I just think that we need to disprove the rumours as soon as possible.
00:18:05So what? I should just call her right away?
00:18:07Yeah, call her.
00:18:08Ben.
00:18:09Look, Alan, I gave you a job. You failed. Okay? Just text me her number and I'll call her.
00:18:14Look, you've got to be kidding me.
00:18:16I've got a family dinner now. Text me her number. Okay?
00:18:20Now.
00:18:39Hello?
00:18:40Look, I'm busy so bother someone else, yeah?
00:18:52It's... it's Ben.
00:18:56Ben Cooper?
00:18:57Look, if you're busy then that's okay, I can call tomorrow.
00:19:01No!
00:19:02Um, I mean, you know, I can talk. Sorry, I didn't recognise your voice.
00:19:06That's okay, we haven't talked before, so how would you recognise my voice?
00:19:09Yeah, I mean, who would expect a call from you after all?
00:19:11You still don't know who I am?
00:19:12Well, I think I'll cut to the chase. Can we meet tomorrow?
00:19:16Um, I... I'm busy tomorrow, sorry.
00:19:41I just need a few minutes of your time. If you can't come out to my place then maybe I can meet you at yours?
00:19:50No! No, I'll... I'll come.
00:19:56Great. I'll text you the address. See you tomorrow.
00:20:07Why don't you have a seat? Make yourself comfortable.
00:20:09Thanks.
00:20:10Would you like a coffee?
00:20:11Uh, yeah. Thank you.
00:20:16It's a strange video.
00:20:21Here you are.
00:20:31You don't have anyone to look after this place?
00:20:34Well, it's my home. I should be the one to look after it, right?
00:20:38It's your home. This is... this is your home.
00:20:44Is that the problem?
00:20:45No! No! No, I just, um... I didn't expect you to call me over. It's kind of... intimate.
00:20:54Well, I don't like to go out when I'm not working.
00:20:57Um, so...
00:20:59What is it you wanted to talk about?
00:21:02I wanted to ask, why are you running away from me? I've offered you a nice job.
00:21:06Yeah, but it's not a job.
00:21:07Yeah, but it's not a job.
00:21:10Whatever it is, I only want you for it.
00:21:15You know I've talked to Alan about it.
00:21:17I know.
00:21:19Well, that's my final decision.
00:21:23What if...
00:21:27I offered you a different role.
00:21:30As my secretary.
00:21:33That way you could have a respectable prefix added to your name and you can still help me fix my reputation.
00:21:39Um...
00:21:41Okay, well it's still not a job.
00:21:44I want a long-term job.
00:21:47You know, your conditions will only hold me for some time. I'll have to leave in the end.
00:21:51How much do you need? Is it about money?
00:21:54No, it's not about money.
00:21:57What if I...
00:22:02Offer to hire you full-time?
00:22:04Full-time secretary.
00:22:06Permanently.
00:22:08I'm sorry, I really don't understand.
00:22:12Why me?
00:22:15Because I just like you.
00:22:17I mean, for this role, I think you'd be a perfect fit.
00:22:21Okay, but there are so many other people that you could pick from.
00:22:26There's something different about you.
00:22:30Look, I've offered you the role...
00:22:33With a part to play along.
00:22:34Are you in?
00:22:41I'm in.
00:22:42Ria.
00:22:44What are you doing?
00:22:45Don't treat me like this.
00:22:46How should I treat my ex?
00:22:48You're in that word.
00:22:49Can you just get over this already?
00:22:50We're not in a relationship anymore, okay?
00:22:51Just leave.
00:22:52I know it.
00:22:53You don't need to pretend.
00:22:54You don't need to pretend.
00:22:55You've been saving me time and time again.
00:22:56This is no different.
00:22:57I'm here for you.
00:22:58Just get off, okay?
00:22:59You need to get out.
00:23:01You're in that word.
00:23:02You're in that word.
00:23:03Can you just get over this already?
00:23:04We're not in a relationship anymore, okay?
00:23:06Just leave.
00:23:08I know it.
00:23:10Just...
00:23:12You don't need to pretend.
00:23:13You've been saving me time and time again.
00:23:15This is no different.
00:23:16I...
00:23:18I'm here for you.
00:23:20Just get off, okay?
00:23:22You need to get out.
00:23:29This is the contract.
00:23:32This contract is for a year from now.
00:23:36We will renew it, of course, so you don't have to worry.
00:23:43I'm sorry, um...
00:23:53You're giving me a million dollars for this job.
00:23:56Is that number not acceptable for you?
00:23:58No, no, not at all.
00:23:59I just...
00:24:01I said I'd pay you enough.
00:24:06Okay, why do you even need a secretary when you have an amazing manager?
00:24:10Well, I mean, Alan looks after the whole agency.
00:24:14So it's a lot of work for him, and if we can bring someone on board to split off the workload, that'd be helpful.
00:24:21Look, it's my decision.
00:24:24Okay, and Alan, I'm not cutting any of your pay.
00:24:26No, I never said that.
00:24:31All right.
00:24:33Well, how about you sign the contract so we can move forward with the plan?
00:24:35Go ahead.
00:24:51Welcome.
00:24:53You're hired.
00:24:55Thanks.
00:24:57I'll try my best for you.
00:24:58Relax.
00:25:06You look tense.
00:25:09Um...
00:25:11I could have bought my own food and drink, so you don't have to.
00:25:13Don't be silly. I was buying things for myself, so I'm more than happy to buy you some things for me.
00:25:19Listen, I hope you don't get the wrong idea about me.
00:25:22Wrong idea about what?
00:25:23Well, it could easily be seen as that I'm just using my money to get to you. I just want you to know, it's not like that.
00:25:31I know.
00:25:36I used to struggle for work, too.
00:25:40Seriously?
00:25:41Yeah, well, there were times where I'd go to bed hungry because I couldn't afford food.
00:25:46It was tough, and all that happened before I met Alan.
00:25:52And once I met him, he is such a generous man, and he looked after me like his own brother.
00:25:57And now you've met him, too. So, you don't have to worry about any of that.
00:26:02I...
00:26:04I've put a lot of hard work, and I've struggled through a lot in my career to get to where I am.
00:26:11And I'd hate to have just one reporter ruin that because they have something out for me.
00:26:16So that's where you come in.
00:26:20I promise that I'll try my best, even if it also sacrifices.
00:26:24No, it shouldn't require any sacrifices. Your dedication is enough.
00:26:35Oh, my God. I'm... I'm so sorry. I'm meeting someone. I've got to go.
00:26:41Oh, do you want me to call you an Uber?
00:26:43No, it's okay. It's not that far. I can just walk.
00:26:46Okay.
00:26:48Bye.
00:26:49Thank you. See you.
00:26:54I really should stop reading these.
00:27:07Take a seat.
00:27:19Why'd you call me?
00:27:20Nah, straight to the point.
00:27:24Look, if you want to sue me, just do it.
00:27:27I wanted to sue you. I would have done that a long time ago.
00:27:30I think we can deal with this a different way.
00:27:34We really should pay for all the wrong information your stupid article spreads.
00:27:40I'm already waiting for legal notice.
00:27:43Look.
00:27:45I have a task.
00:27:48And if you do this for me, I won't sue you.
00:27:49I'll even offer you a job.
00:27:52What kind of task?
00:27:55I want you to write exclusive articles about Ben.
00:28:00I'll give you all the sources and information.
00:28:03You just need to put Ben in the spotlight since you're a well-known horror.
00:28:06All right.
00:28:11What kind of articles?
00:28:13I'll tell you once you've signed the contract.
00:28:16And this is a confidential agreement.
00:28:21If anything gets spread, I won't hesitate and I'll see you right away.
00:28:24I'll see you right away.
00:28:28All right.
00:28:30Consider it done.
00:28:34He may open my office tomorrow morning.
00:28:37And that'll be light or the deal's off.
00:28:39Okay.
00:28:53Hey.
00:28:54Sorry.
00:29:00Sorry.
00:29:01I just woke up.
00:29:03That's fine.
00:29:04I should have warned you before coming over.
00:29:06Sorry.
00:29:07No, it's all right.
00:29:09So why are you standing there?
00:29:15What do you mean?
00:29:16I'm waiting for you to get ready.
00:29:19You're supposed to pick out my clothes for the day.
00:29:22Is that sorry?
00:29:23Yeah.
00:29:24Okay, then where's your room?
00:29:34Hello?
00:29:35Hello?
00:29:38Yeah.
00:29:39I'll bring Ben in for his fittings this afternoon.
00:29:41All right.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:43Bye.
00:29:45All right.
00:29:46Ben, we need to go in for the fittings for your suit this evening.
00:29:49Oh, wait.
00:29:50I got an appointment.
00:29:51Appointment?
00:29:52Yeah.
00:29:53It's all right.
00:29:54It's my own personal business.
00:29:55I'll take care of it some other time.
00:29:56No, that's all right.
00:29:57Blake can accompany me.
00:29:58Me.
00:29:59All right.
00:30:00All right.
00:30:01All right.
00:30:02All right.
00:30:03You two can go in for the fittings for the suit this evening.
00:30:07So you're ready for the task?
00:30:08What task?
00:30:09Task the reason you hired Blake in the first place.
00:30:10Ah.
00:30:11No.
00:30:12Yes.
00:30:13Sorry.
00:30:14Forgot.
00:30:15So, what's the plan?
00:30:16It's your plan.
00:30:17You need to choose to how you want to go and prove it.
00:30:20Wait, you're telling me this is on me?
00:30:21I'll publicize it.
00:30:22You just do whatever it is you want to do to prove it.
00:30:24I kind of thought you'd have, like, a whole script prepared for me.
00:30:25No.
00:30:26Too busy for that.
00:30:27Why don't you get your secretary to handle it?
00:30:28No.
00:30:29No.
00:30:30No.
00:30:31No.
00:30:32No.
00:30:33No.
00:30:34No.
00:30:35No.
00:30:36No.
00:30:37No.
00:30:38No.
00:30:39No.
00:30:40No.
00:30:41No.
00:30:42No.
00:30:43No.
00:30:44No.
00:30:45No.
00:30:46No.
00:30:47No.
00:30:48No.
00:30:49No.
00:30:50No.
00:30:51No.
00:30:52No.
00:30:53No.
00:30:54No.
00:30:55No.
00:30:56No.
00:30:57No.
00:30:58No.
00:30:59No.
00:31:00No.
00:31:01No.
00:31:02No.
00:31:03No.
00:31:04No.
00:31:05No.
00:31:06No.
00:31:07No.
00:31:08No.
00:31:09No.
00:31:10I never expected you to take calls for me.
00:31:11Oh.
00:31:12Well, you know I am your secretary, so it's kind of my job.
00:31:15Sure.
00:31:16Hmm. Question, by the way. Um, why don't you have a driver? I mean, you know, so Alan
00:31:26doesn't have to take you to the fitting.
00:31:27Because I like to drive myself. Although, Alan is constantly telling me to get one.
00:31:33No, you should. Um, I mean you know you can get tired sometimes.
00:31:44Yeah, well I have you now. To drive me. You've got your license, right?
00:31:50I've always loved cars. Um, my dad is actually a mechanic in the village.
00:31:57Really? Yeah. Wow.
00:31:59Um, yeah, I used to help him repair all cars and, you know, he loved to have me by his side helping out.
00:32:06Well, why did you stop? You could have opened a shop here.
00:32:11Um, my dad didn't really like it as a profession for me.
00:32:19What? Yeah.
00:32:23You know, um, it was always my dream to buy my own car.
00:32:27So I put in a loan and I got one.
00:32:30Um, but then I had to sell it because I couldn't pay back the loan.
00:32:36So.
00:32:42And I'm talking too much about myself. I'm so sorry.
00:32:47Yeah.
00:32:48That's okay.
00:32:49Mm.
00:32:50Shall we head home?
00:32:54Yeah.
00:32:55Hey, Alan. Thanks for organizing the suit. And thanks for organizing Blake's dress too. She loves it.
00:33:14Yeah, thank you, Alan.
00:33:15Alright, gotta go. See ya.
00:33:19Alright, I'll go grab the suit.
00:33:20Oh, no, I got it.
00:33:22Oh, it's fine.
00:33:23No, it's, uh...
00:33:25Oh, I see. You think a woman isn't strong enough to carry a suit back?
00:33:31Does it look like I'm laughing?
00:33:32I didn't... I wasn't... saying...
00:33:39Mm-hmm.
00:33:41Oh.
00:33:42I was joking.
00:33:44Okay, well, I'm gonna get the suit back.
00:33:45No, you're not.
00:33:49I'm... I'm sorry.
00:33:51No! No, wait. Don't apologize.
00:33:56Um, you know, the suit, I think you would look really good in it.
00:34:01I think you look great in the dress.
00:34:06I'm gonna go grab the suit... now.
00:34:18Good work.
00:34:23What is it?
00:34:26Your assistant is so rude. How dare she grab me by my arm?
00:34:30You better teach them some manners, or I'm gonna make a complaint.
00:34:35Rhea, your drama doesn't work here.
00:34:38Well, it will when I make a harassment complaint with HR.
00:34:42Look.
00:34:44I'm here...
00:34:47to give you another chance to take me back as your lead actress.
00:34:51You know you can't replace me.
00:34:53Sorry, I just read something funny.
00:34:56Rhea...
00:34:58You have to understand you breached your contract when you decided to work abroad.
00:35:02Now that your plans have failed, you cannot come back and knock on my door again and again and again.
00:35:06What are you talking about? Breached my contract. I went on vacation.
00:35:11What? You didn't tell me anything. Or Ben. So I took it as your resignation.
00:35:15Okay, so take this and draw up a new contract and let's get back into it. I'm getting back with Ben anyway.
00:35:24Rhea...
00:35:26My books are full and I'm not taking any more clients.
00:35:28But when...
00:35:30Rhea...
00:35:31You're trusting me with a house key, huh?
00:36:01I should let him know.
00:36:07Wait, what if he thinks I haven't read the text?
00:36:11I'll interrupt whatever he's doing.
00:36:31Ben?
00:36:37Ben?
00:36:39What, you not going to say hello?
00:36:55Hi.
00:36:59Okay.
00:37:01But, bye.
00:37:03What, you're not going to say hello?
00:37:07Hi.
00:37:09Um, sorry, I thought you would be busy, so I just can't get you.
00:37:13No, that's okay, you've got keys.
00:37:15Anyway, I was busy.
00:37:17Hungry?
00:37:19Um, no.
00:37:21Come on, let's have breakfast.
00:37:23No, I'm good. Let me show you my cooking skills, come on.
00:37:27Why does this make you so happy?
00:37:37Oh, because I suck at making coffee and you're really good at this.
00:37:41You want to learn?
00:37:43No, that would be really embarrassing.
00:37:45Please, let me teach you, then you won't have to be embarrassed ever again.
00:37:49Okay.
00:37:51Like that?
00:37:53Yeah, you just have to hold it at the right angle.
00:37:57Okay.
00:37:59You suck at it because you're holding her.
00:38:01You can't all, just bring it back a little.
00:38:05Just...
00:38:07Hey Alan, I know I'm late. Sorry. Um, what's up?
00:38:25What?
00:38:27Alright.
00:38:29What's up?
00:38:31Alan says there's an article about us.
00:38:35Come on, let's go.
00:38:37Do you know why everyone's staring at me today?
00:38:41Yeah, me too.
00:38:43Exactly. We haven't even done anything yet.
00:38:45It's like 40 minutes to sleep if this didn't turn up.
00:38:49But I was just helping her.
00:38:53Yeah, he was just helping me out the car.
00:38:55What's your problem? Isn't this exactly what you wanted?
00:38:57Well, I mean, it's what we wanted, but not how we wanted.
00:39:01Sometimes things don't go the way they planned,
00:39:03and that doesn't mean there's anything that you'd have to be.
00:39:05Yeah, I don't know what you want.
00:39:07I don't know.
00:39:09I don't know what you want.
00:39:11I don't know what you want.
00:39:13I don't know what you want.
00:39:15I don't know what you want.
00:39:17Things don't go the way they planned,
00:39:19and that doesn't mean there's anything wrong here.
00:39:21You don't think it's too sudden?
00:39:23Too sudden?
00:39:25Isn't this why you hired Blake in the first place?
00:39:29Oh, I'm sorry, Blake.
00:39:31I didn't mean that.
00:39:33No, it's the truth, right?
00:39:35But that's just a side task.
00:39:37You are my secretary.
00:39:39And it's what you approached me for.
00:39:41It's fine.
00:39:43Really, I don't have a problem with this.
00:39:45See?
00:39:47There's no problem here.
00:39:48Okay.
00:39:49Well, let's move it forward.
00:39:51Alright.
00:39:52So, Ben, do you have a plan?
00:39:54Yes.
00:39:55Are you ready to be my girlfriend?
00:39:58Um, so that explicit event we're going to tomorrow.
00:40:11Um, are you taking me as your date?
00:40:15Yeah, that's what I said.
00:40:17No.
00:40:18No, no, can't.
00:40:19Can't do that.
00:40:20Too embarrassing.
00:40:21That's what I told Alan.
00:40:23It's not that.
00:40:25I just...
00:40:26I'm ready to do whatever.
00:40:28I just...
00:40:29feel like it might be too much.
00:40:32Eventually, we're going to have to act as a couple in public.
00:40:36So why drag that?
00:40:38I can see you're worried.
00:40:42It reminds me of when I first debuted.
00:40:45I was scared.
00:40:47I didn't know how everyone was going to react.
00:40:50Whether they liked what I'd done.
00:40:52Whether they'd hate it.
00:40:54Then I was alone.
00:40:56Your fear is justified, Blake.
00:40:58But you're not alone.
00:41:00We'll do this together.
00:41:06Alright.
00:41:07I'll go with you.
00:41:13I think we're being stalked.
00:41:18There's an opportunity here.
00:41:20For what?
00:41:23May I?
00:41:30Very natural.
00:41:31That's me.
00:41:40Are you going home now?
00:41:43Yeah.
00:41:44Yeah, no.
00:41:45I will miss my bus, but I should rush.
00:41:47I have something that I need to show you.
00:41:49Would you mind coming with me?
00:41:52Um...
00:41:53Ben, I'll miss my bus.
00:41:54It'll just be a minute and I think I have a solution for that.
00:41:58Okay.
00:42:00This is for you.
00:42:03Oh, a key to your car now, too?
00:42:04A key to your car.
00:42:08What are you talking about?
00:42:10I bought you a car.
00:42:13Um...
00:42:15Are you serious?
00:42:17It's just for your work.
00:42:19So you can drive me places and get home alright.
00:42:23I...
00:42:24I don't mind taking the bus, Ben. It's fine.
00:42:26I...
00:42:27I know you're fine, but...
00:42:28I mean...
00:42:29You drive me home and then you struggle to get home yourself and...
00:42:32No, I think it'll...
00:42:33It'll help you.
00:42:35I...
00:42:36Please...
00:42:37Take it.
00:42:38Okay?
00:42:39It'll make me happy.
00:42:40And you need to practice your driving skills, so...
00:42:43Um...
00:42:46Thank you, Ben.
00:42:47I guess dreams really do come true.
00:42:48I guess dreams really do come true.
00:42:49I guess dreams really do come true.
00:42:50There is no way I kiss Ben because...
00:42:59I guess dreams really do come true.
00:43:05the truth. There is no way I kissed Vancouver today. Oh my god. No. No. Just my job. Just
00:43:31up. Yes, yes, yes. Hello. Listen, we cannot comment on anything right now, but please try and
00:43:54stay away from the room. Yes. Just try and avoid the room. Thank you very much.
00:44:01Okay. Bye. Ben, what the hell? What do you mean? You told me to go ahead and I did it.
00:44:11This is just the start. You freaking kissed Blake. I thought you were going to start small
00:44:18by like giving her a handshake or just a hug. Is it working? That's the goal. What the
00:44:30hell is going on, Ben? Explain yourself. Explain what and why? Don't play dumb with me. You
00:44:39know exactly what I'm talking about. I don't think that I need to explain anything to you.
00:44:44I thought we were minding our own business. You're so stuck in the past. Can you get over
00:44:51that already? You know that was the last thing you said to me. Just when are you going to
00:44:57drop that? I thought we were exclusive. What happened to us? Why are you so obsessed with
00:45:06me? We're broken up. You never actually broke up with me. Oh jeez. You left me. Okay. You told
00:45:16me to mind my own business. You treated me like garbage and you expect me to do what?
00:45:19You come in here and I forgive you. Okay, Ben. Ben, calm down. No, no. You can't just
00:45:25act like this was all nothing between us. Ben. Alan, just please ask her to leave.
00:45:32Okay. Rhea, please.
00:45:34So you're Blake. Hey, Blake. Let me drive you back to my place.
00:45:48Okay. I could tell you were angry earlier. And you know driving when you're angry is quite
00:46:02dangerous. Why is that? Because you don't pay attention to the road and you don't think
00:46:10when you're angry. I'm being serious. Hey, I didn't disagree. I like to drive to distract
00:46:19myself. I can't help. Okay. What do you do when you're angry? I guess I just like to go somewhere
00:46:36alone and then let my emotions settle down a bit. I usually drive alone. Well, you don't have to
00:46:47anymore. You've got me now. Always. Listen, I'm, I'm sorry about the mess. I am very busy.
00:46:59As you know, I'm really bad at folding clothes. I can tell. Um, I can teach you. I'd like that.
00:47:10I ever did it, didn't I? No. You look perfect. I promise. You look beautiful. I can see you're
00:47:35nervous. Don't be. I'll be with you the entire time. I just, I don't want to thank Ben. I really
00:47:42want to help you out. And if you really want to help me out, then just stop pretending.
00:47:46Okay. Be yourself. Let me worry about the rest. Okay.
00:47:51Look, the plan is to make everyone think that we're a real couple. So I found a place by Lake
00:47:57that is famous for being, for celebrity couples being spotted there. So with any luck, after
00:48:03tonight, everyone will believe that we're a real couple. Well, this was her best successful
00:48:08then. Shall we complete the look?
00:48:14Please.
00:48:14Done. Let's go.
00:48:31Are you okay?
00:48:40I just, um, I forgot that so many people might be watching us.
00:48:46Just remember, we're making the headlines for tomorrow.
00:48:49Yeah, no, that's horrifying.
00:48:53You know, I thought it would, um, we'll just be, you know, fake laughing with you, but, um,
00:49:00it's actually kind of real.
00:49:01Well, I told you, I like you because you're real. All these other girls that I've met
00:49:08before, like, they all know who I am. Like, before you, I hadn't met someone that didn't
00:49:14know me. Someone that wasn't already obsessed with me.
00:49:17Well, I think that's enough work for today.
00:49:28Yeah, should we go?
00:49:29Let's go.
00:49:35You wait here, I'll go get the car.
00:49:37Yeah.
00:49:43Here to steal the headline, huh?
00:49:45You know, he's just using you.
00:49:49Always does that.
00:49:54What are you doing? Let go with me.
00:49:56Ben is mine.
00:49:58I won't let you steal him from me.
00:50:00Really?
00:50:01Stop being delusional. He wants nothing to do with you.
00:50:12Don't you ever mess with me.
00:50:15Don't you ever mess with me.
00:50:28I'll be back.
00:50:31I'll be back.
00:50:31Don't you ever mess with me.
00:50:32I'll be back.
00:50:35Hey.
00:50:36Wait, what happened?
00:50:39Wait, what happened?
00:50:43Hang on. Stay where you are. I'm coming, okay?
00:50:47Blake! Hey! Hey, Blake!
00:50:51What happened? Are you okay?
00:50:56You said Rhea did something? Yeah?
00:51:00Let's get you on.
00:51:01Okay. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
00:51:11I don't want to talk about it, babe.
00:51:14That's okay. That's okay. I'm so sorry, Blake. I'm so sorry.
00:51:20Yeah, let's go home.
00:51:27Um, do you want your jacket back?
00:51:29No. No, you keep it.
00:51:31You can take the car. I can just take the bus.
00:51:36No. No. I'll take the bus tomorrow. You keep the car.
00:51:40Please, Blake.
00:51:44Hey, can we... can we talk?
00:51:47Is your place all right?
00:51:50No, no. It's fine. I was... it's silly.
00:51:52No. No. It's, um...
00:51:56Come on in.
00:51:57Okay.
00:51:58Um, sorry, it's very small.
00:52:11No, it's... it's cozy.
00:52:14Listen, about today, I...
00:52:16I don't have the words.
00:52:19I feel ashamed.
00:52:20It's fine, Ben.
00:52:21It... no, it's not.
00:52:25Every job has its challenges, and this is just...
00:52:28Please, please, stop.
00:52:31Okay? This is something that can never be justified.
00:52:34I won't let it end like this, Blake.
00:52:44Ben, you can't risk your reputation for me.
00:52:47I'm just your secretary.
00:52:48You're not just my... assistant, or my colleague, or my secretary.
00:52:55You're more than that to me.
00:53:00What do you mean?
00:53:04I mean...
00:53:06I think...
00:53:09I think I've developed feelings for you, Blake.
00:53:12Since...
00:53:17Since when?
00:53:19To be honest, I don't know.
00:53:21I mean, when I...
00:53:22When I first met you,
00:53:24I...
00:53:25I wanted to get to know you better.
00:53:26And I spoke to Alan,
00:53:28and we had a role for you to play.
00:53:31But I want you to know that I've loved every second that I've spent with you.
00:53:35But after today,
00:53:41if you want to end the contract here,
00:53:43that's okay.
00:53:44I...
00:53:45I understand.
00:53:47I...
00:53:48Please don't let my feelings be a burden to you.
00:53:51I just want it to be true to myself.
00:54:01Can I kiss you?
00:54:03Because I...
00:54:03I really want to.
00:54:05I...
00:54:06I...
00:54:22Yes.
00:54:25Yes.
00:54:28Send...
00:54:29Send her in.
00:54:33What happened last night?
00:54:35What happened last night? I'm hearing all kinds of...
00:54:37Well, everything was fine until Ria caused a scene.
00:54:41When will she leave us alone?
00:54:43What did she do exactly?
00:54:46Well, I was taking pictures of them, like you asked.
00:54:51And then Ria showed up.
00:54:54And Ria showed up at this argument and this slapped her.
00:54:59She's really crossed the line this time.
00:55:02Write an article for this scandal so she leaves us alone.
00:55:06Look, I'm really sorry, but I'm only paid to write for Ben.
00:55:22Consider it done.
00:55:29Who is this?
00:55:30She's a reporter.
00:55:31And what are you doing?
00:55:33Look.
00:55:35I hired her.
00:55:41Why didn't you tell me about Oliver?
00:55:43It wasn't important.
00:55:45The heck, Alan?
00:55:46You hired the reporter.
00:55:48You know what she's done.
00:55:50I know, I know, I know.
00:55:51But you wouldn't have let her on if I told you about her.
00:55:54Of course!
00:55:55Right?
00:55:55She's on my blacklist because she's the reason that we have to do this in the first place.
00:55:59Look.
00:55:59She wrote those articles.
00:56:00I know, I know.
00:56:01Please.
00:56:02Take a seat.
00:56:05She wrote those articles on you in the first place.
00:56:08Therefore, she has the audience we need.
00:56:10Don't you see?
00:56:10She wrote one story about you and the old rumours died.
00:56:16This is because people trust her.
00:56:18One good deed does not make her a good person, okay?
00:56:20I don't trust her.
00:56:22I know, I know.
00:56:23I don't trust her either.
00:56:24But I've got a plan, okay?
00:56:28She is useful.
00:56:31Still.
00:56:33Ben, in my years of managing, I've learnt one thing.
00:56:38Sometimes you need to take the risk.
00:56:42Whatever.
00:56:43Okay, I just don't want to get Blake involved in this.
00:56:46Okay, we can't drag her into this mess.
00:56:48No, I know.
00:56:49So say what happened to her last night.
00:56:51Wait.
00:56:52I mean, where is she?
00:56:55Why isn't she with you?
00:56:57Oh, don't tell me she's left.
00:56:59We can't do this without her.
00:57:01How are we going to do an ex-
00:57:02She's just taking a break today.
00:57:04Everything's fine.
00:57:05But I do need to tell you something.
00:57:08It smells so good.
00:57:26What time did you wake up?
00:57:28I woke up just after you left.
00:57:32I can't stay away from you for long.
00:57:33Food's ready.
00:57:57How will we eat later?
00:57:58Why'd you call?
00:58:15Don't lie down with me.
00:58:17Do you fear me?
00:58:20Fear you.
00:58:21I mean, why else?
00:58:23Why would you call this soon?
00:58:25Ben's gay story was your idea.
00:58:27Can you keep it down?
00:58:29Someone could hear us.
00:58:30It's not going to change the fact that you're secretly defaming Ben through me.
00:58:34How many times do I have to tell you this is not about defaming Ben?
00:58:38I just wanted him to get back with me.
00:58:40But I do need your help.
00:58:45I have some intel on Blake that I think you're going to want to hear.
00:58:56Their relationship, the whole thing, looks like they've got a contract.
00:59:01It's all for publicity.
00:59:03Expose her.
00:59:06Maria, this isn't enough.
00:59:07I know that.
00:59:08But that should be now.
00:59:18Now, do it.
00:59:20Drag Blake through the press.
00:59:24And if you do it, and it works, I'll be grateful in the day with you.
00:59:31Do you promise?
00:59:33Promise.
00:59:36Anything for a day of the year.
00:59:38Do whatever you want to do.
00:59:47Say it with a smile.
00:59:48Be nice, Alan.
00:59:52Do whatever you want to do.
00:59:54See, that's what I'm talking about.
00:59:59Well, how do you want to go about this?
01:00:00People already know you're dating.
01:00:01Well, I mean, this will be the first time people are actually correct about our relationship status.
01:00:07Alright.
01:00:08And what about you, Blake?
01:00:10Your contract?
01:00:12Let's just end the contract here.
01:00:14We'll pay you what we owe and finish with that.
01:00:17Alright.
01:00:18And what about your secretary, Daryl?
01:00:20Still going to continue with that?
01:00:21Yeah, I'll still keep my job, Alan.
01:00:27Alright.
01:00:28Well, she's made up her mind.
01:00:29No way.
01:00:43You've trusted the wrong person again, Alan.
01:00:52I need you to clear my schedule for today.
01:00:54Yeah, let me see.
01:00:55You need to clear it.
01:00:56Okay, I'm going to go see it like she's not feeling well.
01:00:58Love, of course, of course.
01:00:59I understand.
01:01:03You need to listen to me for a second.
01:01:07I'm sorry.
01:01:08I shouldn't have hired her.
01:01:11Yeah, I told you that before.
01:01:13But you didn't listen to me.
01:01:14And now we're here.
01:01:15Okay?
01:01:16She leaked all of Blake's information.
01:01:18Including her home address in the village.
01:01:20She's not safe anymore.
01:01:22What am I supposed to...
01:01:23Do you understand how bad this is?
01:01:25How am I supposed to face her...
01:01:26Just...
01:01:27Just talk to her.
01:01:28I'll take care of the rest, yeah?
01:01:30You do your job.
01:01:32I'll do mine.
01:01:33What's in the bag?
01:01:47Where are you going?
01:01:50Hey, man.
01:01:52You can't leave unless you tell me what's going on.
01:01:55What does it look like I'm doing, Ben?
01:01:57I'm leaving.
01:01:58But no, you can't leave.
01:02:00We can fix this.
01:02:01It's not over.
01:02:02No, no.
01:02:02Everything about me is on the internet.
01:02:05Okay?
01:02:05I can't take it anymore.
01:02:06People are calling me a gold digger and selfish and fake.
01:02:10You're not fake.
01:02:12Blake, just give me a chance.
01:02:14Okay?
01:02:14I can fix everything.
01:02:17I can't do this anymore.
01:02:19Ben, this isn't me.
01:02:20This isn't who I am.
01:02:21Blake, I love you so much.
01:02:23Just...
01:02:25Let me do something to fix it.
01:02:27I promise.
01:02:28Go!
01:02:30Just go.
01:02:31I can't...
01:02:31I can't do this anymore.
01:02:35Just go.
01:02:36Just go.
01:02:49Good work, Oliver.
01:02:52Anything for you?
01:02:53So, um, where's your part of the deal?
01:02:59I think I already paid you.
01:03:01Yeah.
01:03:02Yeah, you did.
01:03:03Um, I'm talking about our date.
01:03:08Oliver, I was just kidding.
01:03:13You were kidding?
01:03:15Yeah, I thought you realized that.
01:03:18Look, we're just so different.
01:03:21Yeah.
01:03:23What do you mean by that?
01:03:25Well, let's just say I'm really useful to lots of different journalists.
01:03:32They want to date me and get the inside scoop, and I just can't let that happen.
01:03:37Wait, so you think I can't do my job without you?
01:03:42Obviously.
01:03:42I practically wrote your last few articles.
01:03:46Wow.
01:03:50But...
01:03:50I just couldn't date a reporter.
01:03:54I need someone who's on the same level as me.
01:03:57You understand.
01:03:57I need someone who's on the same level as you.
01:04:13We'll see about that.
01:04:14Hello?
01:04:21Hello?
01:04:24Yeah, I'm sorry.
01:04:25Ben's sick right now.
01:04:26That's why he wasn't on set today.
01:04:28Yeah.
01:04:29If we could make another day for the shoot, that would be amazing.
01:04:32Yeah.
01:04:34Yeah.
01:04:34Thank you very much.
01:04:35All right.
01:04:37Okay.
01:04:37Bye.
01:04:45Please pick up Ben.
01:04:47This is the legal notice I'm writing here.
01:04:59Find and double the amount paid.
01:05:04It's good of you to come and collect it yourself.
01:05:09It's not negotiable.
01:05:10I will take this, but I need to tell you something first.
01:05:19Fine.
01:05:20But it's not going to change the fact I'm going to sue you no matter what.
01:05:24Let's take down Ria together.
01:05:28Are you loyal to nobody?
01:05:30You really are a piece of work.
01:05:32Ria betrayed me, so I want to take her down.
01:05:37All right.
01:05:38But if you double-cross me again, I'll make your life a living hell.
01:05:44Ria paid me from the very start to write about Ben.
01:05:48She started all this.
01:05:59I can never make anyone happy.
01:06:05Blake deserves all the happiness.
01:06:08What?
01:06:19What?
01:06:23Read the headline I sent you.
01:06:25I don't know.
01:06:25Come on.
01:06:25I understand your decision to leave, but I hope you know Ben loves you very much.
01:06:49But in the end it's your life, I won't force you to do anything.
01:06:55Ria will be facing the consequences of her actions, she hired a lawyer to write fake articles about you and Ben, the chats have been made public.
01:07:06Good for her, it's the least she deserves.
01:07:10And we'll write a statement for you, and file a lawsuit against Ria for invading your privacy.
01:07:17It's fine, Alan. You don't have to waste all that money on me, I'm just a regular person.
01:07:25So what? Regular people don't deserve respect?
01:07:30You know, I can't ruin the career that Ben has worked, it's so hard to achieve.
01:07:41That's why I'm leaving for the village tomorrow.
01:07:46And I would really appreciate it if you could not tell Ben about this, please.
01:07:57Blank, just take a check, please.
01:08:03I rarely did any good for Ben, Alan.
01:08:08See ya.
01:08:22Thank you for bearing with me.
01:08:24Why are you here then?
01:08:31So, you've decided to leave?
01:08:34That's alright.
01:08:37Just let me drop you off.
01:08:39And I...
01:08:40Please.
01:08:41One last time.
01:08:45It's fine.
01:08:47You're making the right decision, Blake.
01:08:56I don't deserve to have you.
01:08:59All I've done is just cause you trouble, and...
01:09:03You've had enough trouble because of me.
01:09:06So I'm glad that you're making the right decision for yourself.
01:09:12It's not about you, Ben.
01:09:14You have dedicated your entire life to your career, and I don't want to ruin that for you.
01:09:21All that matters to me is you.
01:09:24And without you, nothing else matters.
01:09:28I know.
01:09:30I'm glad you did.
01:09:35I'm gonna, um...
01:09:37I'm gonna...
01:09:39Walk from here.
01:09:40You should come.
01:09:44Hey.
01:09:54Do you want to come meet my family?
01:10:04Will.
01:10:05Hmmm.
01:10:18What are you doing?
01:10:20Twice.
01:10:22What.
01:10:24Do you want that question?
01:10:26That's okay indeed.
01:10:28Cause, this is a great question.
