00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the Best Original Screenplay at the Rising Stars Movie Awards.
00:17You did it.
00:19Three years ago, I was the most sought after screenwriter.
00:24Three years later, I fell in love with Drake,
00:29keeping my identity a secret for the sake of his pride.
00:32I thought we were happy until...
00:38Hi.
00:45Where the hell have you been?
00:47I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday,
00:50and instead of helping us, he just disappeared.
00:53What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?
00:56You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
01:00is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
01:03Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?
01:07What?
01:08A maid?
01:09I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.
01:12Well, I think Drake's idea is great, and it could be really good for us.
01:19But the risk is way too high.
01:21Why?
01:22Dad.
01:23Please.
01:26Okay.
01:27And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm a person.
01:36Think about it, Dorothy.
01:37Since he got married, has he ever even touched you?
01:40How often does he actually come home?
01:42He doesn't even want to look at you.
01:44Let alone sleep with you.
01:46That's enough, Ellie.
01:48We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.
01:50I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.
01:52Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake
01:56instead of being my late brother's widow.
01:58Ellie!
01:59Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.
02:02Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.
02:05It's the perfect time.
02:10Oh, my God!
02:11Oh, my God!
02:12Oh, my God!
02:13Oh, my God!
02:14I just...
02:15Dorothy just pushed Stephanie into the pool!
02:16What?
02:17What?
02:18No!
02:23Quick, save Stephanie!
02:24She's carrying Nick's baby!
02:29Quick, get in there!
02:43He chose Stephanie over me.
02:48My baby!
02:49My baby is gone!
02:51Why would you do this to me?
02:53How dare you!
02:56You pushed Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby.
03:00Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?
03:02I didn't do it!
03:03I know you don't want me here.
03:05I told you whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past.
03:08You can hate me however you want to, but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?
03:13You didn't do it.
03:14You know me, I would never do that.
03:15You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie.
03:18Just apologize to Stephanie.
03:21I'm not going to apologize for something I didn't do.
03:23Apologize to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you.
03:32Divorce?
03:33If you apologize right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance.
03:43It's been three years, Drake.
03:45I gave up everything to be your wife.
03:48You've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.
03:50I already have a life.
03:52And right now I just want to focus on being on my marriage or Drake.
03:59I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.
04:03The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
04:08Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
04:11He doesn't even want to look at you.
04:15Fine.
04:18Let's get a divorce.
04:19There's nothing left in my heart.
04:28Drake's nothing without me.
04:32My ring!
04:34My ring is gone!
04:36Well, you must have taken it.
04:38Why would I take her ring?
04:39Well, look how quickly you packed your suitcase.
04:41You're probably seeing someone else.
04:43Dorothy.
04:45Yes?
04:46Yes.
04:47We were married for three years.
04:48Were you seeing someone else?
04:49Of course she was.
04:51She'd probably been cheating on you for a really long time.
04:53Couldn't wait for the divorce.
04:56So what if I was, huh?
04:58And what about you?
04:59Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?
05:02What gives you the right to talk about me?
05:04I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.
05:08Yeah.
05:09But you actually seeing someone else?
05:10Who is he?
05:11Big talk!
05:13Don't bring me down to your level.
05:14I'm not like you.
05:17Since your sister-in-law lost her ring.
05:23Why don't you take...
05:29This one.
05:32You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?
05:39Bye.
05:44And so I left.
05:50This is ridiculous!
05:53We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.
05:57I let him marry my daughter and even invested in his business.
06:01How dare that Drake do this to my daughter!
06:03Look, it's actually good from Dad.
06:08Now we know who he really is and he has no idea who I am.
06:12Still, you're my daughter. I can't let him do this to you.
06:16If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.
06:20We're gonna pull our investment immediately.
06:21Yes.
06:22It's time to cut him off.
06:24He doesn't deserve you.
06:26I'm over Drake.
06:28If we withdraw the plans now, it's going to hurt the family business.
06:33He's not worth it.
06:35Honey.
06:37Why don't you just take a vacation?
06:40Oh, just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself.
06:44Yeah.
06:47No.
06:51I've wasted too much time with Drake over the three years.
06:55You know, now I want to focus on something that actually matters.
07:00You know, Christopher has been saying that many people want to buy the movie rights to Liar's Game.
07:06Universal, Paramount, every major studio wants this.
07:13Liar's Game.
07:15Your story on the big screen.
07:17If you're in, I'd be happy to be the one headlining it.
07:19Oh.
07:21So that's why they're making it. Because of you.
07:23I'm sorry, Christopher Santoro.
07:25See? They're not funding the film.
07:28They're funding you.
07:29Wrong.
07:31They're funding the story.
07:33It's more than good.
07:35It's phenomenal.
07:37Christopher is right.
07:39I'm taking my life back.
07:44I'm going to adapt to myself.
07:45You are?
07:47Yes.
07:49I will.
07:51Good for you.
07:53I won't tell anyone I'm asking.
07:54Congratulations to Aria Wong for winning the best director.
07:55This is my close friend from college.
08:00Aria, I need your help.
08:01I want to adapt to Liar's Game myself.
08:02And I want you to direct it.
08:04Of course.
08:05There's just one thing.
08:06I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:07I don't want anyone to know.
08:08Especially not the team.
08:09SQ.
08:10Are you sure?
08:11But why keep it a secret?
08:12I just want people to keep me up.
08:13So, do you want me up?
08:14No, don't think this is a secret.
08:16Yeah.
08:17And hence I want you to direct it.
08:18Oh, we just need to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:19I'm sorry.
08:21I'm not going to second.
08:22Oh.
08:23This is my close friend from college.
08:25Aria, I need your help.
08:27I want to adapt the Liar's Game myself.
08:28And I want you to direct it.
08:30Of course.
08:31There's just one thing.
08:32I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:33I don't want anyone to know.
08:34Especially not the team.
08:35SQ.
08:36Are you sure?
08:37But why keep it a secret?
08:38it a secret. I just want people to focus on the story itself. Got it, your secret's safe with me.
08:46Oh my god.
08:50Jeff, it's a bit weird. Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.
08:58Really?
09:05It's Stephanie.
09:08Yeah, just take it.
09:14Hello?
09:15Hello, Miss Wong. I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.
09:19I'm interested in playing the lead. Can we arrange an audition?
09:25I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.
09:28Thank you, Miss Wong.
09:31What do you think?
09:34Anyone can audition, right?
09:35As long as they're right for the role.
09:39What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...
09:41Okay. I'll call her back and let her know.
09:47Mm-hmm.
09:47What about me?
10:00Can I be your hero?
10:01Oh, you mean, uh, a film, right?
10:08I've never considered anyone else.
10:12I have to take this.
10:18Hi.
10:23You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.
10:27It's okay.
10:28It's okay. I can wait.
10:32I've waited this long.
10:37Well, well, well. Look who it is.
10:40Why are you here?
10:44Oh, I see. You're the production assistant.
10:49Well, do your job.
10:51Get me a water.
10:54Stephanie.
10:56Get your own water.
10:57I'm not your PA.
10:59Look.
11:00It's my first day on set and I want to buy coffee for the crew.
11:04Why don't you be a doll and mark down everyone's order?
11:08Are you deaf?
11:09I'm not a PA.
11:12Here's a tip.
11:13Go on.
11:15Show some respect, Stephanie.
11:18Do you know who she is?
11:21What were you doing?
11:23Oh, no. She can't know I'm asking you.
11:28I want to keep my identity as the writer secret.
11:32I don't need anyone to know, especially not the team.
11:38What do you mean?
11:40Who is she?
11:43No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.
11:49Isn't that right?
11:50Well, actually, she's...
11:55She's just a PA.
11:57You're right.
11:57So why don't you show me a lower PA, your acting skills?
12:03Maybe I'll be impressed even by the copies myself.
12:07Watch this.
12:13I loved you once.
12:16Or so I thought.
12:17But now I see that it was all just a lie.
12:22A beautiful...
12:26Painful lie.
12:27You took everything from me!
12:34My dreams!
12:36Hi, future.
12:41See?
12:42There's no soul.
12:43That's not acting, it's just...
12:46reciting lines.
12:48Why don't you show her how it's done?
12:49What?
12:51Go on.
12:52Go on.
12:55Go on.
12:56Go on.
13:17I loved you once.
13:20So I thought.
13:21But now I can see.
13:25It was all a lie.
13:28A beautiful, painful lie.
13:32You took everything from me.
13:37My heart.
13:39My dreams.
13:42My future.
13:44And for what?
13:45For your own personal gains.
14:00How is that possible?
14:02Dorothy.
14:03That was perfect.
14:05The role is yours if you want it.
14:08No!
14:09This role is mine!
14:12I'm the one with the investment.
14:13Without me, there's no funding for this movie.
14:15Your investment?
14:17Do you even know who she is?
14:20Who is she?
14:25Who is she?
14:26As you know, no one but a PA.
14:30Dorothy.
14:32This movie is important to Stephanie.
14:33I mean, why are you here?
14:34You're not a real actress.
14:36What are you doing?
14:36You're trying to ruin her career.
14:37You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career.
14:39I'm not ruining anything.
14:41If she can't handle the role, that's on her, not me.
14:46You can't blame this on anyone else.
14:47You embarrassed her in front of everyone.
14:49I mean, I know what you're doing.
14:51You're the one pulling all the strings here.
14:53You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.
14:56She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake.
14:58She's been jealous from the start.
14:59Trying to ruin my chances to get back to you.
15:01I know.
15:02I don't want to fight anymore.
15:04Well, let's just take a look at the script and maybe we can work something out.
15:09And you are just so damn selfish.
15:12You already care about yourself.
15:14Just give Stephanie her role back.
15:16You know what?
15:19I didn't want to do this.
15:20But I will.
15:22I'll take the role.
15:24I'll play the lead.
15:28I'll play the lead.
15:29No way, you can't be serious.
15:31She's not even a real actress.
15:35Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours.
15:38Everyone in the room can see it.
15:42I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.
15:46Right, it's settled then.
15:48The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.
15:52I will double my investment if you give Stephanie a role.
15:59You two look as such.
16:22Okay, look.
16:23If the money's on the table, there's no reason to turn it down.
16:26Let's just give her a part.
16:28We have nothing to lose.
16:30I guess that'll be fine.
16:34I'll talk to SQ.
16:40Your father's production company is already the biggest investor in your movie.
16:43So why take Drake's money?
16:45You don't...
16:46You don't still have feelings for Drake.
16:49No.
16:50He's an asshole.
16:52Come on.
16:54I've got an idea.
16:57Why don't we just give her a character?
16:59That'll make her miserable.
17:03Wow, Mr. Sontaro.
17:05I feel bad now.
17:11I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.
17:17How did she land herself the role?
17:19She's practically a nobody.
17:20No fan base.
17:21No real experience.
17:23Just one good scene.
17:25It doesn't make sense.
17:28Find out everything you can about Dorothy.
17:31I want all the dirt.
17:39Director, there must be a mistake.
17:41I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.
17:45You wanted a role, we gave you a role.
17:47I came in with an investment.
17:51Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.
17:56Even a small role in SQ's film is going to do great things for your career.
17:59Now is not the time for you to be messing around.
18:04Fine.
18:06Take one.
18:08Action.
18:09Lily, you are my best friend.
18:11How could you do this to me?
18:13I'm sorry but this is a...
18:14Oh!
18:19What the hell are you doing?!
18:20What the hell are you doing?
18:22It's part of the scene!
18:28Okay, take it again from the slap.
18:30Action!
18:35Cut!
18:36Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines?
18:39You have to keep going in the scene.
18:42I think you've had enough for today.
18:44We'll just try again tomorrow.
18:50Did you see her face? Absolute gold!
18:57I mean, she got what she wanted.
18:59She asked for a role and that's what we gave her, so...
19:02Seriously, her performance is all over the place.
19:05Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.
19:09We all know the film's better without her slowing us down.
19:12You're right.
19:14I'm not gonna let anyone ruin your story.
19:20So, if you can just give me something that's a bit more...
19:25Something about her job.
19:33What's going on with my scenes?
19:35Why have so many of them been cut?
19:37It's a collective decision.
19:39Fuck that! Let me talk to the writer.
19:43The writer is SQ and as you know, they never show their face,
19:46so their decision is final.
19:51I'll see you on set in five.
19:53I'll see you then.
19:55Go ahead.
19:56Awww!
20:05Now it all makes sense!
20:07Yeah.
20:11Oh!
20:12Now it all makes sense.
20:14That's the head of the production company.
20:16No wonder she got the role.
20:19Let's see how John's wife feels about that.
20:30Everyone, I have an announcement to make.
20:33Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.
20:41You really think I don't see through your little gays?
20:44Somebody will be walking out that door today,
20:46but it won't be me.
20:49You really think you can get away with this?
20:52Sleeping your way up?
20:56John's wife is on her way.
20:58Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.
21:00Slut.
21:05That's enough!
21:10So were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?
21:13What? Scared the truth is going to come out?
21:16Someone had to expose her for who she really is.
21:19So you admit it. You did it.
21:22Damn right I did. And I'd do it again if I had to.
21:27You don't know who you just cross!
21:29Oh, I know. Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.
21:33I sent those photos to your wife too.
21:35And now your mistress is about to be exposed.
21:40Yeah. Security.
21:42Stephanie is banned from the studio.
21:44Make sure she never sets foot here again.
21:46You can't just do that!
21:48Oh, this is insane!
21:49What? I have rights!
21:51I will only tell you the truth!
21:53She is a mistress!
21:54A loose woman!
21:55A lady of the night!
22:04Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:06Otherwise why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?
22:10That's unbelievable!
22:12And he humiliated me!
22:13He had me dragged off the set like a criminal!
22:15You should have seen it!
22:17I'm not going to let her just ruin her reputation like this!
22:21I mean this whole mess is just making us look like fools!
22:25Dorothy's always been trouble.
22:27I mean first she goes off with a married man and now this!
22:31I don't know how you put up with her for three years.
22:34You should have got a divorce earlier.
22:36Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:42It's the only explanation!
22:44She's clearly nothing but a slut!
22:48Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.
22:52Now you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.
22:56Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?
22:59She was sleeping her way to the top, killing Stephanie's unborn child.
23:04And John dragging her off the set!
23:07You should be sticking up for Stephanie!
23:13I'm not going to let her do this to you.
23:15Do you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?
23:31I didn't walk away from anything!
23:33You did!
23:34You chose Stephanie over me!
23:36Remember this one?
23:37And she's my sister-in-law!
23:38I'm so sick of hearing this!
23:41You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it!
23:44You are out of your mind if you think I'm going to let you get away with this!
23:48You do what you want to do!
23:50But for now, get out!
23:52Why?
23:53We were married for three years.
23:54And we never...
23:55Well, you don't fucking mind!
23:56Let go of it!
23:57No wonder you want me to go!
23:58Just look at yourself!
23:59You're not half the man Christopher is!
24:00Get out!
24:01Or I will call the cops!
24:02Just go!
24:03Just go!
24:04You're not half the man Christopher is!
24:05Get out!
24:06Or I will call the cops!
24:07Just go!
24:10Are you okay?
24:13Are you okay?
24:14Are you okay?
24:15You're not half the man Christopher is!
24:16You're not half the man Christopher is!
24:17No wonder you want me to go!
24:18Just look at yourself!
24:19You're not half the man Christopher is!
24:21Get out!
24:23Or I will call the cops!
24:24Just go!
24:26Are you okay?
24:30Are you okay?
24:42Ruthie, remember, safety first.
24:47The lifeguard's right there if you need him.
24:49Okay.
24:52Anything you need, let the AD know.
24:54Okay, got it.
24:55Got it.
24:56Yep.
25:00Here's a coffee for you.
25:06It's still early before the shoot.
25:08Take your time.
25:30Oh, my God.
25:39Oh, my God.
25:43Oh, my God.
25:47Oh, my God.
25:51Something's wrong.
26:05That's not acting.
26:07She's in trouble.
26:14Where's the lifeguard?
26:19Where's the lifeguard?
26:21Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:42Oh, my God.
26:51Come on, Dorothy.
26:52Come on, Dorothy.
26:52Why did you do that?
27:18I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
27:22Christopher risked everything, without hesitation.
27:26How could I have been so blind?
27:29I wasn't expecting that.
27:52Where were you? Dorothy could have drowned!
28:02I'm sorry, I had a stomachache, I had to look at her back.
28:04Make sure it doesn't happen again.
28:06Do you think that I should call Dorothy just to make sure she's okay?
28:16Are you still hung up on her?
28:18No, it's not like that, I'm just trying to be helpful.
28:22Don't you remember, Drake?
28:24She's the one who had me kicked out of the movie.
28:27She's the one who killed my baby!
28:30Not just my baby, but Nick's baby!
28:32I know I'm just her sister-in-law, whatever happened between us is in the past.
28:37But I have no one now.
28:40No husband, no baby.
28:43What I have left is you.
28:46Don't you see through Dorothy yet?
28:49She's nothing but a slut, sleeping her way to the top.
28:52You don't know that.
28:54You know I'm right!
28:56Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
28:59Not just John, but Christopher too!
29:01She's sleeping around with anyone she can find!
29:03She's a whore!
29:04Shut up!
29:15You want war?
29:17I'll give you war.
29:22Do it.
29:24And make sure Dorothy feels every bit of it.
29:29Breaking news.
29:32Unknown actress seduces Hollywood heartthrob.
29:35Rising star or opportunist.
29:38Actress Dorothy's shocking affair with Christopher.
29:40Christopher's new flame or a heartless gold digger.
29:43Dorothy!
29:44Liar!
29:45Hey bitch!
29:49This is getting out of hand.
29:51Maybe we should just reveal her real identity.
29:54Let everyone know she's not just some random actress.
30:00Christopher, no.
30:01Dorothy, once we tell them who you are,
30:03there's no reason for them to attack you.
30:05There's someone behind us.
30:07And whoever they are, I'll make them hang.
30:16Fuck off.
30:17This can't be right.
30:29I die in the second scene!
30:32This must be Dorothy and John forcing SQ to cut me out.
30:36They won't get away with this.
30:37They've completely written me out of the script.
30:38Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
30:39You promised him you'd look after me.
30:40I've already lost my husband and my baby.
30:41I can't lose my career too.
30:42Don't worry.
30:43I'll get you your character back.
30:44Don't worry.
30:45I'll get you your character back.
30:47Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
30:50You promised him you'd look after me!
30:52I've already lost my husband and my baby! I can't lose my career too!
30:56Don't worry.
30:58I'll get you your character back.
31:00There's a tape of a documentary that apparently SQ has always wanted.
31:20So, if we win this bid and we gift it to them, we should be able to get you your robot.
31:25Up next, a rare gem.
31:30The original film documentary chronicling the creative journey of none other than herself.
31:36Legendary screenwriter, Margaret Lane.
31:3950,000.
31:42What's she doing here?
31:45I don't know.
31:47I'm not going to let her win this.
31:4960,000!
31:5070,000!
31:5470,000!
31:57100,000!
32:01This is my grandmother's documentary.
32:03It's her legacy.
32:05She's the one who inspired me to become a screenwriter.
32:08I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.
32:12500,000!
32:13500,000!
32:23500,000!
32:27Trying to get you your robot.
32:29Don't worry. I've got it covered.
32:31Ladies and gentlemen, we are down to the final bid!
32:35Standing at a whopping 500,000!
32:39500,000 going once!
32:42500,000 going twice!
32:45Sold!
32:46To the lady in the blue dress!
32:47I can't believe this.
32:52You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:05You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:10What's going on?
33:11Um, uh, ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed that Miss Dorothy is in fact not an invited guest.
33:24Therefore, as per our rules, this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.
33:31This is ridiculous. I was invited.
33:33Well, in that case...
33:36May I see your invitation?
33:42I did have it, I swear.
33:43I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.
33:45If you do not have the invitation at hand, the documentary reel has to go to the second-highest bidder.
33:50This is the protocol.
33:52I'm sorry.
34:11These are the rules.
34:12The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.
34:24Stephanie, wait.
34:26Just sell it to me.
34:40Name your price.
34:41I'll pay you anything you want.
34:42It's really important to me, please.
34:44Why are you doing this?
34:46Are you just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants?
34:50No, you don't understand.
34:52Just let me buy this.
34:55Whatever it takes.
34:57Dorothy.
34:59You think this is about money?
35:01Please.
35:02This isn't something you can just buy.
35:04Dorothy.
35:06What the hell did you do?
35:08Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:09This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:11She can use this to help her career.
35:13Her career?
35:15Is this about you role being cut from the dead?
35:19Is that why you're doing this?
35:23I'm the writer.
35:24I'm gonna fix this.
35:26Then you write the story and bring your character back.
35:29Just...
35:30Just let me have the real person.
35:32You're the writer.
35:34Are you telling me that you're SQ?
35:39You!
35:40The writer SQ!
35:41Can you give us a break?
35:42There's a break.
35:43Look.
35:44This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:47End it.
35:48Don't make this harder than it has to be.
35:51You've been with Dorothy for so long, and you don't even know her!
35:54Oh, and you do!
35:55A hell of a lot more than you!
35:57Who the fuck do you think you are?
35:58Both of you, calm down!
35:59Oh, oh, oh!
36:13Scratched!
36:14All over!
36:15It's ruined!
36:16Not even fit to be a gift anymore!
36:17I can fix this.
36:19Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it.
36:20Just sell it to me, please!
36:22Just name your price!
36:23Even if I had no use for it, I'd never give it to you.
36:53I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:02This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:07Really?
37:08An entire world I've captured, but it's just one way of seeing things.
37:14The magic is creating it yourself. Someday you will.
37:23I need you to go apologise to Stephanie and give her her role back.
37:35Apologise? To her? She destroyed the reel.
37:39She wouldn't have done that if you hadn't pushed her.
37:46So go apologise or I'm pulling my funding.
37:49Look, Dorothy, let's be real here.
37:53Without Stephanie, Barry's going to invest.
37:57Even the production company will call out if they hear that she's not involved anymore.
38:00Her name carries weight.
38:02Let's not pretend that your reputation is exactly stellar right now.
38:05Christopher's fans hate you. Stephanie's fans hate you.
38:09Even if you actually make this film, no one's going to support you.
38:13You will be buried.
38:15If you apologise to Stephanie now, I can help you.
38:22I can control the press. I can control the narrative.
38:25I can actually give you a chance.
38:27What's so funny?
38:30What's so funny?
38:33What's so funny?
38:35Pull your funding?
38:37Do it.
38:38You'll see it does nothing for the movie.
38:40Okay.
38:41So what if I tell the production head to pull his funding too?
38:45Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?
38:47Oh.
38:48Go ahead.
38:49Try it.
38:50You want me to call?
38:51Mm-hmm.
38:52Fine.
38:54Hi, Mr. Bennett.
38:55It's Drake.
38:56Drake Mossbutcher.
38:57Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liars Game and I suggest that you do the same thing.
39:02I've seen it and it's a sinking ship.
39:04You're pulling up?
39:05Great.
39:06I'll take full control of the investment.
39:07Not a problem.
39:11So, you sat with them.
39:13That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?
39:16Is this how you see me?
39:17The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?
39:19What other explanations?
39:20I mean, I don't have to be a MVP.
39:22I don't have to be a MVP.
39:23I don't have to be a MVP.
39:24I don't know.
39:25I don't have to be a MVP.
39:26I don't know.
39:27I'm playing it.
39:28I don't know it.
39:29But I'm playing it in my number of games.
39:30But I'm playing it.
39:31I'm playing it in your game, and I'm showing you can't play it with me.
39:33What other explanation do you have?
39:36You know nothing about Dorothy.
39:41Apologize to Stephanie, cut ties with Mr. Bennett and end this.
39:45Dorothy, come back to me. Whatever he's offering you will match it. I'll double it.
39:49You must be out of your fucking mind.
39:52What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?
39:56Living hell?
39:56You heard me!
39:58Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.
40:01You made me believe you loved me.
40:04And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.
40:08You said you'd always protect me, but then when I need you the most,
40:12you just turned your back on me.
40:15You chose your sister-in-law over your wife.
40:21I've had enough, Drake.
40:22You were my prison.
40:24So just go back to your precious Stephanie.
40:28She's just gone.
40:42Why are you hurt?
40:43Are you okay?
40:51What are you, Steph? What are you doing?
40:52Well, you want me, don't you? Just kiss me, I'm all yours.
40:55Steph!
40:56You're Nick's wife. I've always told you you're like a sister.
40:59Sister?
41:01Funny.
41:02Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?
41:05Don't you remember what you said?
41:08Remember this?
41:09Yeah, why not marry Stephanie?
41:11God.
41:13You're practically begging me not to marry Nick.
41:16No, I shouldn't have heard that.
41:17I shouldn't have said that.
41:18I don't see it.
41:21What's that?
41:22Oh, it's nothing.
41:23Yeah, what is that?
41:24No, Drake, no.
41:25Please.
41:28You lied about this.
41:32You lied about this.
41:36You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water,
41:39but this shows you shoving her in.
41:41It's a glitch.
41:42A glitch.
41:44So, do you actually expect me to believe that?
41:47What's this?
41:50Buying pills off the black market?
41:53Terminate your pregnancy.
41:56This time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat
41:58and she was innocent the whole time.
42:01Please, no, you have to believe me.
42:02I didn't...
42:03Do you know why?
42:04I've always thought of you like a sister.
42:06I've always taken care of you.
42:07I even thought that I loved you once,
42:09but that was before you were Nick's wife.
42:13You've changed.
42:17You've changed.
42:19You're not the person I thought you were.
42:23I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty
42:25as Nick's brother to look after his widow.
42:29I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, huh?
42:32What does that mean?
42:34You're just going to throw me away?
42:36I think I'm not going to throw you away.
42:38But this is my house.
42:41When I'm back, I hope you'll be gone.
42:44But you can't just walk away from me like that.
42:46I've said everything that I need to say.
42:48Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.
42:56This is all your fault.
42:58Let's take this bitch down.
43:02Let's take this bitch down.
43:03Let's take this bitch down.
43:07Do I say please?
43:21No.
43:22I was wrong.
43:25I misunderstood everything about you and about us.
43:32Can you please just hear me out?
43:34You think you can just come here and apologise?
43:38After everything.
43:39I didn't mean to hurt you.
43:42Look, I understand what I did, but it was just because it was definitely an anyone.
43:46Can you please just forgive me?
43:49I don't need your apology, Drake.
43:51You let me down.
43:53You abandoned me.
43:55And I needed you the most.
43:58You used me, manipulated me, and now you beg for my forgiveness?
44:03Oh my god, please just don't show me out.
44:05I can fix this.
44:07I can fix it.
44:07I can do anything, Dorothy, please.
44:09Just...
44:10No.
44:12You were never the person I thought you were.
44:15And I'm not either.
44:17I've moved on.
44:21I don't need you.
44:26Not like I used to.
44:28Just stay back.
44:29After everything.
44:30Yeah, that's it.
44:30Yeah, that's it.
44:43I deserve better than this.
44:44You did it.
44:57You did it.
45:00You did it.
45:01You did it.
45:11Before you all celebrate this movie, there's something you should know.
45:14Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.
45:17What's going on?
45:17A glorified mistress who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress when all she's really
45:20done is ruin lives.
45:22This is true, Dorothy.
45:25We're being involved with a married man.
45:26What's your response to Stephanie's claim?
45:28This is ridiculous.
45:39Let's talk about how she got here.
45:41Shall we?
45:42She didn't get here off her talent.
45:44Oh, no.
45:45She got here by clinging to powerful men.
45:49No real experience.
45:50No skill.
45:51Just a man's name and a man's money.
45:54Security!
45:55Get her out of here.
45:56Wait.
45:57If she has something to say, let's hear it.
46:00Dorothy, it's a trap.
46:02I'm not afraid of the truth.
46:04Let's see what she's got.
46:10What's going on?
46:11So tell us, Dorothy.
46:13How did you get here?
46:15Did you use your relationship with John Bennett to land the part?
46:27I didn't…
46:34A homework are you saying?
46:37Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?
46:41You're the one who sent me this photo, right?
46:42How about you take another one?
46:44This time, of my lovely family of three.
46:47Dorothy, Dorothy.
46:48Dorothy!
46:49Are you really John Bennett's daughter?
46:50Yes.
46:51I bet you never ask my last name.
46:53It's Bernard, by the way.
46:56So Dorothy is the producer's daughter.
47:00Dorothy, so did you use your father to get the part?
47:04So it's just nepotism, then.
47:10Well, even if she didn't fuck her way to the top,
47:12she still only got here through her connections.
47:14Whether you like it or not, my performance speaks for itself.
47:17And everyone here saw it.
47:19She was actually really good.
47:21Yeah, she handled the models.
47:23Oh, are you saying that everyone here is wrong?
47:25You think you're so clever, don't you?
47:28Fine, you can act a little bit.
47:31But let's be real, you didn't land this role on your own.
47:34You just snapped your bony little fingers and let Daddy give you a role.
47:38How else would a nobody like you have landed yourself the lead otherwise?
47:42Dorothy isn't just a nobody.
47:46She wrote Liar's Game.
47:49She is SQ.
47:54Dorothy is SQ.
47:56How can that be possible?
47:58Liar's Game is a masterpiece.
47:59There's no way you could have written it.
48:01You don't have to believe me.
48:03Just let the credit speak for itself.
48:08How can this be true?
48:10Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer and the famous writer SQ.
48:20Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:25Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:27Stephanie Marsbecker, Linda Marsbecker and Ellie Marsbecker, I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.
48:32No, no, no, no.
48:33I didn't do anything wrong.
48:34This was all Stephanie's idea.
48:35I didn't do anything.
48:36Bobby not believe me.
48:37Who could help me?
48:38This whole time she was actually telling the truth.
48:39Dorothy's SQ.
48:40She's genius.
48:41this whole time
48:44she was actually telling the truth
48:46Dorothy's SQ
48:48she's genius
48:50that's why she always had a book in her hand
48:54always writing something on her laptop
48:58always lost in her thoughts
48:59didn't even see her
49:03guess I was blind all along
