Short filmTranscript
00:00:00You used to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:00:02Sabrina was a rising star.
00:00:04And Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart into stealing it back again.
00:00:09You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:00:11You will end up with nothing.
00:00:13The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:16I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:00:19Why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:00:21Perfect.
00:00:22Get out of Hollywood.
00:00:23In fact, get out of the country.
00:00:26I gave it everything I had.
00:00:27Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:00:31No. What have I done?
00:00:33He can't be gone. He can't.
00:00:35Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:00:38Being with me hurt his career.
00:00:40Look at what you've got.
00:00:41You have everything.
00:00:43I don't have him.
00:00:46Daniel!
00:00:47He still loves me.
00:00:48He has to.
00:00:49And we need to find him at all costs.
00:00:51Daniel.
00:00:57And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:01:06That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:01:10Who knew the house hubby had it in him?
00:01:11I'm an industry joke now.
00:01:13Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:01:19Wow, you did your homework.
00:01:21Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:01:26I will tell you this.
00:01:27I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:01:32Daniel really did it.
00:01:34The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:01:38You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:01:41You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:01:43Our contract expired.
00:01:46I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:01:48If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing.
00:01:51The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:57I'll always love my son.
00:01:59But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business.
00:02:02His grandmother.
00:02:03You used to worship, Sabrina.
00:02:05What happened?
00:02:06That was a long time ago.
00:02:08America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:02:11All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:02:15But her career's hanging by a thread.
00:02:16I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:02:20You've always loved her, Daniel.
00:02:22I've seen it.
00:02:24She needs that now.
00:02:26Stay.
00:02:27Marry her.
00:02:29Love her.
00:02:30So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:02:33I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:02:36And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:02:38If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:02:46This was the last one.
00:02:47Mom, Daniel.
00:02:52What's going on?
00:02:56What's going on?
00:02:58Honey!
00:02:58I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:03:04If the paparazzi catch him next to you, oh.
00:03:07But I need to go.
00:03:08I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:03:11Think about it, Daniel.
00:03:13Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:03:23Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:03:25Ugh, can it wait?
00:03:26I'm seriously so spent.
00:03:29I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:03:33I saw it.
00:03:34Preston was there.
00:03:36I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:03:39I mean, we owe him.
00:03:40Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:03:45I'm starving.
00:03:46When are we eating?
00:03:47Lunch is on the stove.
00:03:49But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:52No!
00:03:52I want to eat now!
00:04:04You always know the spot.
00:04:06He doesn't listen.
00:04:07Daniel, please.
00:04:09I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs at that god-awful Fanity Fair shoot.
00:04:16I got something I need to tell you.
00:04:18I'll make it quick.
00:04:19This isn't easy, but I...
00:04:21Ew, what is this?
00:04:23It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:04:24I don't want healthy food.
00:04:26I want chicken nuggets.
00:04:27Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:04:29You can't have that every day.
00:04:31It's not healthy for you.
00:04:32But I want them.
00:04:34Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:04:38You suck!
00:04:39I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:41Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:49I waited.
00:04:51I gave it everything I had.
00:04:53But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:56And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:05:02Enough.
00:05:02Just enough.
00:05:08I want a divorce.
00:05:11I want a divorce.
00:05:17Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:05:19Huh?
00:05:20I want a divorce.
00:05:25I want chicken nuggets!
00:05:27Give me chicken nuggets!
00:05:28Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:05:32Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:05:34We'll get you some real food.
00:05:40Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:05:44I mean, it's not that hard.
00:05:47What is this?
00:05:49Another contract?
00:05:50How big is the role?
00:05:52Who's directing?
00:05:54It's not a...
00:05:55Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:57Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:06:00Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:06:03I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:06:08Pull my weight?
00:06:09Yeah, you get it.
00:06:13Love you.
00:06:14I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:06:18If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:06:21Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:06:24The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:06:34We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:06:36I can't.
00:06:37My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:06:38After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:06:47At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:50I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:53Hey mom, how you doing?
00:06:55Oh, good dear.
00:06:57I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:07:01Do you need more?
00:07:01No, no, no, no.
00:07:02You've already done so much.
00:07:05I'm just trying to help.
00:07:06I know.
00:07:07But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:07:11I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:07:18I am, mom.
00:07:20And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:07:28You have a wonderful fear.
00:07:29You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:07:32Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:07:34I gotta go.
00:07:35Love you.
00:07:35What is it, mom?
00:07:40Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:07:42Our favorite leading man.
00:07:44Come on.
00:07:51Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:58Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:08:02All right, cut.
00:08:09That's a wrap, everyone.
00:08:12We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:08:15Sabrina was a rising star.
00:08:18I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:22Our future's ahead of us.
00:08:23If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:29If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:29We got our
00:08:44We got our good stuff.
00:08:47We got our good stuff.
00:08:50We got our way.
00:08:50We got our Taylor.
00:08:51You got my keto man that broke my wife's heart.
00:08:52We got ouré青 heart.
00:08:53You got my god.
00:08:54We got our eclipsed.
00:08:55We got our first Renaissance and John.
00:08:55Normally it's very new to me.
00:08:56We got our cousin who tends to knock my face out of many treats.
00:08:58You destroyed me.
00:09:00Rested.
00:09:02There's nothing left.
00:09:16Sabrina, don't!
00:09:18Stay back.
00:09:20I mean it.
00:09:22Sabrina, don't do this.
00:09:24Just...
00:09:28Just give me your hand.
00:09:42No!
00:09:44Daniel!
00:09:46I got you.
00:09:48No! Don't let me go!
00:09:50I won't ever let you go.
00:09:52I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:58Nobody sees the real me.
00:10:00I see you, Sabrina.
00:10:02I see all of you.
00:10:04And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:10:06We're gonna be alone again.
00:10:14Good to see ya!
00:10:16Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:10:18Oh, too long.
00:10:19Look at you!
00:10:20Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:10:24Of course, babe.
00:10:25Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:10:26Are you kidding?
00:10:27Oh, Daniel.
00:10:28Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:10:31Oh, there he is!
00:10:33The assistant!
00:10:34I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:10:37God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:42Stop!
00:10:43I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:49Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:53Daniel!
00:10:54Oh.
00:10:55Don't embarrass me.
00:10:56No, it's fine.
00:10:57You?
00:10:58Played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:11:01He's not just tough, he's Bret Steele tough!
00:11:04You think, you know?
00:11:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:11:07He doesn't let me do anything.
00:11:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:11:12What do you say?
00:11:13Huh?
00:11:14Yeah.
00:11:15Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:11:18It's fine.
00:11:20It's fine.
00:11:21Just relax, okay?
00:11:23Be nice.
00:11:27Some people never change.
00:11:34But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart
00:11:39again.
00:11:40Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:42But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:11:45Oh, careful.
00:11:46You all right?
00:11:48I'm still starving.
00:11:49Make me some food.
00:11:50Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:51Stew?
00:11:52Ew.
00:11:53What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:54I told you a hundred times, I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:58If the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:12:00I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:01Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:12:02Oh, babe.
00:12:03For real?
00:12:04Yeah.
00:12:05Yeah.
00:12:06My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:12:07Donovan Cosmetics, I'm rich.
00:12:08Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:12:09I mean, that's just something, poor man, from the top.
00:12:10I know. If the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:12:13I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:17Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:12:20Oh, babe. For real?
00:12:22Yeah. My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:12:26Donovan Cosmetics. I'm rich.
00:12:30Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:12:34I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:38See, Daniel, that was always your problem. You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:41You realize that's why no one bought your scripts. They were so dull.
00:12:44Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything.
00:12:47Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:52So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant? My treat.
00:12:57Here we go.
00:12:58What? Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:13:01I don't mind.
00:13:02All of you insist. I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:13:04Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so.
00:13:13Anyways.
00:13:14Come on, man. Let's go.
00:13:16Looks great.
00:13:17Gotcha.
00:13:17There we go.
00:13:19Oh, there's Paps.
00:13:22You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:13:24Last time.
00:13:25I promise.
00:13:26You're right. It is the last time.
00:13:32Hey, guys.
00:13:35Bye.
00:13:36Jackson.
00:13:42Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:46Contract's fine.
00:13:49It's over.
00:13:49Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:54I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:58To 10 years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:14:01Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:14:21She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:14:26Sabrina Donovan?
00:14:27I could scream.
00:14:28I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:14:30Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:34OMG, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:14:38A scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:14:40Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:43Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:44Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:48All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:55Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:57Because you're not really a part of my brand.
00:15:00Your brand?
00:15:01It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:15:04You get it, right?
00:15:13So, you two are a thing?
00:15:15Well, I...
00:15:16Oh, it's okay, babe.
00:15:17We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:15:19This is so going viral.
00:15:29I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:15:31It looks like more than dating.
00:15:33Is this your son?
00:15:34I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:37Don't be silly.
00:15:38You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:41That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:42He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:46But Preston is awesome.
00:15:49He's an action spy.
00:15:50I wish he was my dad.
00:15:53My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:56But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:15:58when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty
00:16:01with a call girl.
00:16:02It's okay, buddy.
00:16:03Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:16:05If you want me around, I'm in.
00:16:08That is if mom's school with it.
00:16:10Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:16:12Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:16:14Preston, what are you doing?
00:16:18Come on.
00:16:19Let's give him a show.
00:16:35Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:40I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:43Sabrina will end up on top,
00:16:45and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:49Daniel!
00:16:51You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:53And the sound of it,
00:16:54your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:57Daniel, he's here.
00:16:58He...
00:16:59Did he see us?
00:17:00Is he looking over here?
00:17:01Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:17:02I was just doing that for Felicity.
00:17:04I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:17:05Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:17:07Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:17:11Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:17:13Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:17:15Jackson, enough.
00:17:17What do I do?
00:17:19Well, that's it then.
00:17:21Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:17:23I need to leverage her relationship with Preston,
00:17:25with the tabloids.
00:17:26I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:29You're really good at that.
00:17:31Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:35A one-way ticket,
00:17:37so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:41I know the contract is over,
00:17:42but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:46I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:49Daniel loves me.
00:17:50He has to understand.
00:17:51This is Hollywood.
00:17:52It's just part of the job.
00:17:55Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:57I can explain.
00:17:57I can explain.
00:18:01Daniel, what is this?
00:18:05I can't let her create a public scene.
00:18:07All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:18:10Are you going somewhere?
00:18:12Honey, what a coincidence.
00:18:15We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:18:18Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:18:20A vacation?
00:18:21Finally.
00:18:22You're paying attention.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:25I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:27Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:29What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:31Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:32That's not what I meant.
00:18:33Whoa.
00:18:34Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:36It's fine.
00:18:38Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:18:40Just like any good husband would.
00:18:42Oh, I see.
00:18:44Is it me?
00:18:45Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:47I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:49I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:51You know what?
00:18:52Maybe I should go.
00:18:53I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:55No, please stay.
00:18:56I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:58No, you know what?
00:19:00I'll go.
00:19:02And clearly she wants you.
00:19:04I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:19:05Daniel, wait.
00:19:08I won't ever let you go.
00:19:09He won't leave.
00:19:10He promised.
00:19:12It doesn't have to be like this.
00:19:14We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:19:16I'm going to go back.
00:19:18Daniel!
00:19:26Better than yours.
00:19:28Yeah.
00:19:29Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:19:31Oh!
00:19:32Oh, good.
00:19:34You're up.
00:19:35Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:40It's fun.
00:19:41Well, don't look at me like that.
00:19:44I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:47Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:51How lucky for him.
00:19:52He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:56Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:59Listen, Matt, I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:20:05You can trust me.
00:20:06Hey, Preston, I think you're a good mom.
00:20:10You need to go right now.
00:20:12All right.
00:20:13Oh, hey.
00:20:15Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:20:17I, I, when you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:20:23I, I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:20:26Just ignore him.
00:20:27He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:29No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:32Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:35Jealous?
00:20:36Oh, my God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:40Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:44You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:51That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:57Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:21:02Oh, my God.
00:21:04God, you're unbelievable.
00:21:06Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:21:13No, it's not like that.
00:21:15I, I, what?
00:21:18You know what?
00:21:18Fine.
00:21:21You two look great together.
00:21:22Daniel, I...
00:21:24And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:39Um, I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:51Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:56I was never the homemaker.
00:22:01Please, Daniel.
00:22:09I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:21If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:24I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:39Look at her now, playing house for another man.
00:22:43If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:23:02Hey, there he is.
00:23:05God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:23:07Man, no, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:23:11Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:23:15Got some.
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:18What do you need?
00:23:18Oh, oh.
00:23:19Yeah, there you go.
00:23:21I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:23:24Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:26Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:23:31Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:37You're not.
00:23:37A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:41Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:45It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:49What's wrong, Jackson?
00:24:00Mr. Eastwood!
00:24:02I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me.
00:24:05And it's unfair.
00:24:06That's a shame, huh?
00:24:07You know what?
00:24:08Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:24:10Here we go.
00:24:11Ooh.
00:24:12Ooh.
00:24:13No, it's not to play with that.
00:24:16You never let me do anything!
00:24:19Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:22You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:24It's not about the money.
00:24:26It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:28Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:24:32Yeah?
00:24:33What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:35You're so annoying!
00:24:38Don't push.
00:24:39I said don't push.
00:24:45Go get a book or something.
00:24:47Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:48He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.
00:24:52God, what the hell is he?
00:24:53Just show me.
00:24:56Call it a lesson.
00:24:57I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:59He's not your kid.
00:25:01I wish I was.
00:25:02I hope Mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:25:05I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:25:08Ouch.
00:25:08I mean, you just heard your son.
00:25:10So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:25:13Herm, maybe it will be.
00:25:14But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:17You?
00:25:19Man of the house?
00:25:20Please.
00:25:21You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:22I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:26And you're a washed up pack.
00:25:28Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:30How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:32I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:34I'm a fucking star.
00:25:36A star?
00:25:37A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:41Jackson, come on.
00:25:41I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:43No, I'm not going.
00:25:45Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:47Preston, Preston, Preston.
00:26:04You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:15What was that?
00:26:23Daniel!
00:26:23What is happening?
00:26:26It was Dad, Mom.
00:26:27Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:26:29What?
00:26:30I'm so scared.
00:26:30That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:32What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:34I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:35I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:36What?
00:26:37I didn't?
00:26:38Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:40You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:42I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:44He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:45It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:26:47Grow up.
00:26:47Remember we're in the public eye?
00:26:50What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:52What?
00:26:53Everyone knows your precious Preston attacked me?
00:26:56Maybe I should go.
00:26:58I'm sorry.
00:26:58No.
00:26:59Oh, my God.
00:27:01He's lying.
00:27:03You're a monster.
00:27:05And in front of your son?
00:27:07You have to be kidding.
00:27:09We have to get you to the hospital.
00:27:11We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:14Come on.
00:27:15Clean this up.
00:27:17Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:22She's mine now, loser.
00:27:33Hello, 911.
00:27:34What's your emergency?
00:27:35I'm bleeding out.
00:27:37I think I hit an artery.
00:27:38I need an ambulance now.
00:27:40Now.
00:27:47You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump
00:27:54you with liquids.
00:27:56To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:27:59Trouble with the missus?
00:28:00Uh, yeah.
00:28:04Pretty obvious.
00:28:05Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:28:09I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.
00:28:16True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:19I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:28:23You said, um, a couple?
00:28:25I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official.
00:28:30She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:34She was so sweet.
00:28:35What?
00:28:36You need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:43No, it's...
00:28:44It's an old wound.
00:28:47I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:50Daniel!
00:28:52Sweet and caring.
00:28:55So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:58He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:29:00and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:29:06Fuck it.
00:29:10Let me go get my shit in, y'all.
00:29:13Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:15You once liked my short film.
00:29:17I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:27It needs the right producer.
00:29:28I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:33Where have you been?
00:29:34I kept calling.
00:29:36I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:39Huh?
00:29:43What?
00:29:44I've been busy.
00:29:45Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:48Seriously?
00:29:49Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:51I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:55Yeah.
00:29:56That's what you want to call it?
00:29:57I, I just, I'm sorry.
00:30:01I, bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:30:06It is what it is.
00:30:12But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:16You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:20And I think you should go for it.
00:30:22I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:25But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:28Seriously, I, I care about you.
00:30:38I'm no man.
00:30:39I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:42I know when you're angry.
00:30:44Really?
00:30:45I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:47I pay attention?
00:30:49Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:51She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:54That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:56A headline.
00:30:58A performance.
00:31:00Sabrina.
00:31:04Sabrina, I'm good.
00:31:05You know what?
00:31:06I hate fighting.
00:31:08So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:11I was thinking.
00:31:12We could revisit your script.
00:31:17I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:19So, you tell me you finally read it?
00:31:22Well, yeah.
00:31:23The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:31:26The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:29I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:31Me and you.
00:31:32The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:36I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:40A long time ago.
00:31:42Well, how about you make us some lattes,
00:31:44and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:31:48Just like we used to do in film school.
00:31:51There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:54I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:57Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:32:00What?
00:32:00I don't know what you do,
00:32:16but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:32:19and it was awful.
00:32:23Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you,
00:32:24and I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:26That's not what I meant.
00:32:29I like it when you make it.
00:32:32I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:36I knew it.
00:32:38You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:41I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:44God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:48Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:53It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:54No, Daniel.
00:32:56No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:03Look what you made me do.
00:33:04Just leave it.
00:33:08I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:12And what?
00:33:13It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:15I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:17And look what I get for it.
00:33:19You know what?
00:33:20Forget it.
00:33:21I have a mirror.
00:33:22We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:38What?
00:33:39Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:42Yeah.
00:33:42Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:43Not quite.
00:33:44That was the divorce contract.
00:33:46But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:50This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:52Remember that.
00:33:53I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:33:55I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:10Oh, please.
00:34:11She's always been so secretive.
00:34:13I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:22Oh, well, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:28Come here.
00:34:29Oh.
00:34:32Jackson!
00:34:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:36Do you know where she is?
00:34:37Or who she's with?
00:34:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:40He's been staying with us.
00:34:42Oh.
00:34:43Really?
00:34:44Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:48Oh, I hope so.
00:34:49I really hope so.
00:34:50He's way cooler than my old, boring, real dad.
00:34:53Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:57Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:00What are you doing here?
00:35:07You never come to these things.
00:35:09Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:12Get lost.
00:35:13You embarrass us.
00:35:15Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:17I'm your father.
00:35:18I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:23Is there a problem?
00:35:28Oh, my God.
00:35:30That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:31How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:34If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:37I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:39You're a pathetic loser.
00:35:40Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:42You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:35:47I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:49That's not what I see.
00:35:50You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:58That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:02It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:04And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:09This was all a stunt, wasn't it?
00:36:12You were revolting.
00:36:13No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:16Hey.
00:36:18Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:36:19Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:23Yeah.
00:36:24Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:25Oh, yeah?
00:36:26What lesson's that, Preston?
00:36:27You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:32Hmm.
00:36:36Oh!
00:36:37What the hell?
00:36:55What happened?
00:36:57Oh my god!
00:36:58Daniel!
00:36:59What the hell happened?
00:37:01Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:03Are you okay?
00:37:03Look at her go.
00:37:06Hollywood's finest.
00:37:08Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:11It's Daniel.
00:37:12He's a monster.
00:37:13He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:16Mommy!
00:37:17Dad came in here and started shouting at me!
00:37:19No.
00:37:20No, that's not true.
00:37:22If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:27Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:30Daniel.
00:37:31Is that true?
00:37:35Sabrina.
00:37:37Oh!
00:37:39Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:42I think one of them's broken.
00:37:44Sabrina?
00:37:45Honey?
00:37:46We need to help Preston.
00:37:49But...
00:37:50But Daniel!
00:37:53Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:56Mommy, please!
00:38:08We can't leave him!
00:38:10I...
00:38:10I have...
00:38:12I have to help Preston.
00:38:13Come on, Jackson.
00:38:34Daniel!
00:38:35I got you.
00:38:37Don't let me go!
00:38:38She's made her choice.
00:38:41There's no going back.
00:38:42We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:38:48Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:38:59Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:01I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:03There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:08Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:09In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:12If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:33Don't worry about it.
00:39:34Just drive.
00:39:35Drive.
00:39:35Drive.
00:39:39I used to ache for her approval.
00:39:51Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:39:55Seriously?
00:39:56Stay down.
00:39:57I know.
00:39:58What are you doing?
00:40:00I'm not going to call the doctor.
00:40:02Hey.
00:40:04What are you doing?
00:40:05I thought you were hurt.
00:40:07I think I'll pull through.
00:40:09So what are you doing?
00:40:16I don't know what I've always wanted to.
00:40:19Come on.
00:40:19I know you want this.
00:40:20I see the way you look at me.
00:40:22Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:40:26I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:28What am I doing?
00:40:38What am I doing?
00:40:40Daniel is still injured.
00:40:42He should be home.
00:40:46Sabrina?
00:40:46Huh?
00:40:57Preston, get off.
00:40:59What?
00:41:00Babe, we can finally, come on.
00:41:02I said get off.
00:41:04What?
00:41:04I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:06No, forget about him.
00:41:07Look, I love Jackson,
00:41:10and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:13I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:16I mean, come on.
00:41:17Sabrina, your son, your mother,
00:41:20even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:22What?
00:41:24Look, he's already moved on.
00:41:29No, what have I done?
00:41:32Where is he?
00:41:33What about me?
00:41:34You had your chance 10 years ago.
00:41:37I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:39Oh.
00:41:45Hello?
00:41:46Excuse me.
00:41:48Excuse me.
00:41:49Hi.
00:41:50Have you seen my husband?
00:41:52Please, he was someone bleeding out.
00:41:54I saw him stumble outside holding his head
00:41:56after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:58He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:02Oh, no.
00:42:03Come on Daniel, where are you?
00:42:05I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:09Please try again later.
00:42:11What have I done?
00:42:23Come on Daniel, answer me.
00:42:26He's not gone. I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:43He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:42:51It's not possible. He will be back.
00:42:56No.
00:43:07Boy, it's all assets.
00:43:09Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:12The waves all spousal support.
00:43:15No, no, he can't leave me.
00:43:17He can't do this to me.
00:43:19I won't sign off on him.
00:43:26No.
00:43:27All this time, who's gonna leave me?
00:43:35It can't be.
00:43:49It can't be.
00:43:50It's not a...
00:43:53Honestly, it doesn't matter. My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:57He loves me.
00:43:59He loves Jackson.
00:44:01He wouldn't just leave us. We're his family.
00:44:04And...
00:44:05After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:44:08I got you.
00:44:09Don't let me go!
00:44:10Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:11Danielle!
00:44:12I got you!
00:44:13Don't let me go!
00:44:14Don't let me go!
00:44:15What's wrong?
00:44:16I got you.
00:44:17Don't let me go!
00:44:18I got you!
00:44:20Don't let me go!
00:44:21I got you!
00:44:26Don't let me go!
00:44:27Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:29Danielle!
00:44:30No, it's Mom.
00:44:31Don't let me go!
00:44:34Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:40Daniel?
00:44:41No, it's mom. Is everything okay? You sound panicked.
00:44:44Mom!
00:44:46Mom!
00:44:48Daniel, he just left us.
00:44:52Do you know where he is?
00:44:55We have to find him. We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:58Oh, honey. It's over.
00:45:01Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:03You knew?
00:45:05I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:45:15I'm hungry!
00:45:17Dad! Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:45:21Jackson?
00:45:24I have something to tell you.
00:45:28Your dad.
00:45:31Your dad?
00:45:33He's left us.
00:45:35I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:38Yay! He's gone! He's gone!
00:45:40Why would you say that?
00:45:42He was so embarrassing! Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:45:45Mr. Eastwood?
00:45:47What did Preston say?
00:45:49He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man.
00:45:54He was so lame and boring. Now he's gone! Mr. Eastwood is way cooler! He can be my new dad!
00:46:03Jackson! You have a dad! And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:46:08Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:17Hello? Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:19Ms. Donovan? It's your accountant. I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:23I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:25Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood. Was that done with your approval?
00:46:30No, but I'm not surprised. Flag his name. I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:38Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again. Okay?
00:46:43He's not the man you think he is.
00:46:45Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:46:49And we need to find him at all costs.
00:46:51What kind of coward abandons his family? Huh? It's despicable.
00:46:57I can't do this anymore. Cancel everything. The interviews and the red carpets. I don't want to be seen. I can't pretend. I just want him back.
00:47:11Honey, it's time to let him go. You don't love him anyway. Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:19What? How could you say something like that? Of course I love Daniel. He cares for me. He sees me. He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:35But Daniel is a pathetic nobody. Daniel's my husband. And the father of my son.
00:47:41Yeah, some husband. Abandoning you without a moment's notice. Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended?
00:47:48Contract? What contract?
00:47:52What are you talking about?
00:47:58Forget it. Forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:02When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:07Is there something you're not telling me? Please. I just want the truth. Mom.
00:48:13Fine. I will tell you the truth. But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:22I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina. But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:28When Preston left you, you were distraught. I had to save you.
00:48:36She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:48:39You've always been there for her. From film school to now. I've seen it.
00:48:45She needs you. Stay. Marry her. Love her.
00:48:49So that she's never alone again.
00:48:58It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:01How could you do this to me?
00:49:04I wanted to protect you.
00:49:06You wanted to control me.
00:49:08All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:11Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:12You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop. Daniel did what he was meant to do. He kept you together.
00:49:24Where? Where did he go? I know he told you where he went. Where is he?
00:49:30You can do better than him. You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet. Believe me, it's for the best.
00:49:37No. He can't be gone. He can't. Yes. He is gone and he is gone forever.
00:49:45He can't be. He can't be gone. He can't.
00:50:08I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:50:18Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:24Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:29Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own shteed. Nobody told me how. Oh man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:50:38I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:50:41Yeah. God, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been very honest about it actually. I almost gave up the dream.
00:50:48But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I've found my voice and it really is full steam ahead.
00:50:57Speaking of London, since you're an American rights director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:04Hollywood.
00:51:06Get out of the country. If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:51:14Daniel?
00:51:32He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:51:36Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:51:42That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:51:51Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:51:55We'll never tell.
00:51:59Oh my God, thanks for saving me.
00:52:01She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:03I know, jeez. This is so surreal. I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:52:07I can. The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:52:13Daniel. Enjoy this.
00:52:17And get used to compliments. There's already Oscar buzz.
00:52:21Fuck. Finish me, I know. I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:24You okay? You always do that when you're nervous.
00:52:30Yeah, I know. It's um...
00:52:32We'll have it.
00:52:34Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:52:38Some of us just got a head start.
00:52:39Matthew.
00:52:53Our press is good press.
00:52:59Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:04He can't do this to me!
00:53:08Sabrina.
00:53:09You don't need him.
00:53:10Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:12How could he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:15Move on?
00:53:17Please, honey.
00:53:18He is using her.
00:53:20Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:23He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:25How could you say that?
00:53:27I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:53:31He's proving that to the whole world!
00:53:33Don't you see it?
00:53:34Sabrina.
00:53:36Look at what you've got.
00:53:38A celebrated career.
00:53:40A mansion in the hills.
00:53:41An adorable kid.
00:53:43Well, when he's not whining.
00:53:45And don't forget about Preston.
00:53:47Your dream man.
00:53:49You have everything.
00:53:51I don't.
00:53:52Have.
00:53:53Him.
00:53:54Mom, I'm hungry.
00:53:55Go have the chef make something.
00:53:57No, I hate what she cooks.
00:53:58And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:59Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:01Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:03He's your dad.
00:54:04No!
00:54:05Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:06Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:10It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:12When did he get so cruel?
00:54:14You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:18A doormat.
00:54:20Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:21Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:22Enough!
00:54:23You little shit!
00:54:24Enough!
00:54:25Just enough!
00:54:26Sabrina?
00:54:27What's gotten into you?
00:54:28Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:54:29Whoa.
00:54:30What's going on here?
00:54:31This room feels really tense.
00:54:32Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:54:33I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:54:34No!
00:54:35I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:54:36And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a time out.
00:54:38It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:54:40Hey, babe.
00:54:41Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:54:42Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:43Really?
00:54:44Loser?
00:54:45Yeah.
00:54:46You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:47And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:16That's really, really low.
00:55:18Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing
00:55:23in the last year.
00:55:24Come on.
00:55:25We're America's power couple.
00:55:26To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:55:29Face it, Preston.
00:55:31You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:55:34And you're a fucking thief.
00:55:36Yeah.
00:55:37I know you're bankrupt.
00:55:38You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:55:41I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:55:43Because you know what?
00:55:45Honestly, I pity you.
00:55:46It's not like that, okay?
00:55:48Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:55:51I want to marry you.
00:55:52We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:55:55What's my birthday?
00:55:56Huh?
00:55:57What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:59What's my favorite color?
00:56:00My favorite song?
00:56:01Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:04Oh, oh, wait.
00:56:05What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:07You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:10You don't love me.
00:56:11You don't even know me.
00:56:13This isn't a relationship.
00:56:15This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:17And you know what?
00:56:18I'm done.
00:56:19Get out.
00:56:20I don't want to ever see you again.
00:56:23We're over.
00:56:24We're over.
00:56:25What?
00:56:26No, babe, babe.
00:56:27Come on, please.
00:56:28Please, I love you.
00:56:29Just, just think about it.
00:56:30Look at the press.
00:56:31What this will look like?
00:56:33If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:56:37Get out.
00:56:38Babe, just...
00:56:39Now.
00:56:40Just give me your hand.
00:56:41Come on.
00:56:42No.
00:56:43I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:56:45Nobody sees the real me.
00:56:46This is a real me.
00:56:47I see you, Sabrina.
00:56:49I see all of you.
00:56:51And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:56:53He truly knew me.
00:56:57He loved me.
00:56:59Every flaw.
00:57:01Every fear.
00:57:02Contract or not.
00:57:04He truly loved me.
00:57:06I saved you from social suicide.
00:57:08Saved me?
00:57:09I mean, you don't even know how ironic that is.
00:57:13Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:57:15And he saved me from you.
00:57:18Security!
00:57:20Security!
00:57:21Come on.
00:57:22Just let's talk about this.
00:57:23No.
00:57:24Come on.
00:57:25Celeste, do something!
00:57:27Sabrina!
00:57:28Come on, Sabrina!
00:57:30Was that really necessary?
00:57:32I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:57:36Is that all you care about?
00:57:38The fame?
00:57:39The headlines?
00:57:40The brand deals?
00:57:41God!
00:57:42You're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:57:47Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:57:50Of course I care about you.
00:57:52I love you.
00:57:54Then prove it.
00:57:55If you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:58:08You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:58:09I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:58:10In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:58:22I mean, you know this.
00:58:23You're a legend.
00:58:24I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:58:26Alright, let me cut to the chase.
00:58:27You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:58:30I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing alright.
00:58:32I got projects.
00:58:33Come on!
00:58:34You're built for billion dollar franchises.
00:58:36Hollywood blockbusters.
00:58:37The one that gets made in LA, not London.
00:58:40That's where you belong.
00:58:41To be honest, I already did LA.
00:58:44It didn't really end well.
00:58:46Let me guess.
00:58:47My girl?
00:58:48If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:53You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:56You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:59:00You've given me a lot to think about.
00:59:02Three picture deal.
00:59:03200 million dollar budget each.
00:59:05Creative control and final cut approval.
00:59:07I don't know what to say.
00:59:08Just say yes.
00:59:09You have my number.
00:59:10Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:12Just remember, Daniel.
00:59:14You can't run away from the past.
00:59:16You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:59:29Hey, it's been a while.
00:59:32Can we talk?
00:59:33Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:37Of course.
00:59:38It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:59:43Is this a personal story?
00:59:45Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:48Oh, she knows who she is.
00:59:52Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:59:53You arrogant little shit.
00:59:54I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
01:00:07It's Celeste Donovan.
01:00:08It's Celeste Donovan.
01:00:10I need a favor.
01:00:11I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
01:00:16It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:00:21Mom?
01:00:22What are you doing?
01:00:27Did you just break my TV?
01:00:29Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:00:32You know I'm not supposed to do that.
01:00:34You've been so kind though.
01:00:35Um, it's called, You Drive Me Crazy.
01:00:38He's back.
01:00:41Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:44Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:00:47I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:00:49I need to get on that movie.
01:00:51Absolutely not.
01:00:53You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:55If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:58Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:01:00He still loves me.
01:01:02He has to.
01:01:05I just need to talk to him.
01:01:07Let.
01:01:08Him.
01:01:09Go.
01:01:10Mom.
01:01:11Honey, I...
01:01:14You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:01:18I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:01:21I love you.
01:01:24I love you too.
01:01:26There we go.
01:01:30This is, um, it's another movie deal.
01:01:34I'll tell you about it after.
01:01:36Okay.
01:01:37Okay.
01:01:38Okay.
01:01:51Did you get his location?
01:01:53The Oaks.
01:01:548 PM.
01:01:55After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:02:00He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:12She's not protecting me.
01:02:13She's protecting her business.
01:02:15And I'm just a pawn.
01:02:17But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:02:22So nice having you back.
01:02:24And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:02:26Yeah, it's been a rough couple of years, hasn't it?
01:02:28A couple?
01:02:30Daniel, it was ten years of you slaving away for those people.
01:02:33If you can even call them that.
01:02:35But you're healthy now.
01:02:36And I'm at the top of my career.
01:02:38I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina, but I really thought I could make
01:02:42it work.
01:02:43The marriage, the kids.
01:02:45It's...
01:02:46I mean, we really tried.
01:02:47I thought I could make a go for it, but, um...
01:02:51It's over.
01:02:52It's over.
01:02:53I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks Preston Eastwood can offer.
01:03:05Oh.
01:03:06You haven't heard?
01:03:08She dumped him.
01:03:09It was all over People Magazine.
01:03:11She ended it when his star faded.
01:03:15Oh, my God.
01:03:16What?
01:03:22Daniel!
01:03:25Stop!
01:03:33Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:03:35I'm here to help you.
01:03:37Sabrina?
01:03:38You're making a scene.
01:03:39Let's go home.
01:03:40Sabrina?
01:03:41How could you?
01:03:42What?
01:03:43I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
01:03:46I begged and pleaded.
01:03:48Stop lying.
01:03:49I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:53And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too, to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin
01:03:58him.
01:03:59My God.
01:04:00You're disgusting.
01:04:01I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:04:02Not anymore.
01:04:03Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:04:05I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:04:06I'm your mother.
01:04:07I only want what's best for you.
01:04:08What's best for me?
01:04:09You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:04:23That all ends today.
01:04:24You're fired.
01:04:25Fired.
01:04:26No.
01:04:27No.
01:04:28No.
01:04:29You can't do this to me.
01:04:30Please.
01:04:31Please, sweetie.
01:04:32I have dedicated my life to you.
01:04:33You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:04:34I was just who you used to get to it.
01:04:35You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:40There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:44I made you.
01:04:45You'd be not.
01:04:46No.
01:04:47You can't do this to me.
01:04:48No.
01:04:49No.
01:04:50No.
01:04:51No.
01:04:52No.
01:04:53No.
01:04:54No.
01:04:55No.
01:04:56No.
01:04:57No.
01:04:58No.
01:04:59No.
01:05:01No.
01:05:02No.
01:05:03Nothing without me!
01:05:04I think she'll do just fine.
01:05:13We're done here, Mom.
01:05:17If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:05:24Without another word.
01:05:29I have something to say.
01:05:39I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:42I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:05:45I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:05:50I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:56I apologize to your father.
01:06:01Do I have to?
01:06:02Who raised you?
01:06:05Cared for you?
01:06:08Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:06:11Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:06:15He did.
01:06:16He loved you.
01:06:18But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:06:20I was wrong, Jackson.
01:06:22He gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:06:26And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:06:30I'm sorry, Dad.
01:06:35It's going to be okay, son.
01:06:37I love you.
01:06:38Okay.
01:06:39Come on, Jackson.
01:06:40Let's go.
01:06:41I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:50For everything.
01:07:00I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:02You're thinking of going back to them.
01:07:04I just didn't know it'd be this hard.
01:07:09They hurt you, Daniel.
01:07:12They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:07:16People can change, but that doesn't change the past.
01:07:27And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:07:32Daniel.
01:07:33Daniel.
01:07:33Daniel.
01:07:34Daniel.
01:07:34Daniel.
01:07:35Daniel.
01:07:35Daniel.
01:07:36Daniel.
01:07:36Daniel.
01:07:37Daniel.
01:07:37Daniel.
01:07:38Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing
01:07:41sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:07:43Yes.
01:07:44I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:07:50But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:07:51Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:08:03Way to go, John!
01:08:21Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:08:25We'll keep in touch.
01:08:32How many more do we have today?
01:08:34Forty, sir.
01:08:35Geez.
01:08:36Hey, boy!
01:08:37How are we looking?
01:08:38We're still digging.
01:08:39Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:08:42I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:08:46Alright, here's the deal.
01:08:47The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:08:51Today?
01:08:52Are you fucking kidding me?
01:08:54That's why I love you, man.
01:08:55Cool under pressure.
01:08:56This movie is going to blow the roof off.
01:09:02Oh, my God.
01:09:03Alright, just bring in the next one.
01:09:05That would be...
01:09:07Emily Blake.
01:09:11Emily.
01:09:16Emily, amazing as always.
01:09:18You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:09:22Please.
01:09:23I wasn't going to miss a shot who auditioned for the great Daniel Johnson.
01:09:27How's L.A. treating you?
01:09:29Oh, my God.
01:09:30Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:09:33But I am...
01:09:34I'm glad to be back.
01:09:36Well, it's no English countryside.
01:09:38Yeah.
01:09:39But it suits you.
01:09:42You definitely belong here.
01:09:46I do miss you, though.
01:09:48It was fun.
01:09:50Playing the part.
01:09:51British starlet.
01:09:53American director.
01:09:55I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:59Waiting for us to become something real.
01:10:02I'm sorry, Halloween.
01:10:03It just cast me, and we'll call it even.
01:10:08You...
01:10:08You were amazing, as always.
01:10:10It's just...
01:10:12It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:10:16I never was, was I?
01:10:19Anyways...
01:10:20Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:10:23Maybe I'll see you around?
01:10:25Yeah.
01:10:26Okay.
01:10:26Give me a copy, and you know what?
01:10:39Go get one for yourself, too.
01:10:42And be generous with the sugar.
01:10:49Oh, my God.
01:10:51What am I going to do?
01:10:56What are you doing here?
01:11:12I came to audition.
01:11:16Did you bring any representation?
01:11:17No.
01:11:19I fired my manager, remember?
01:11:22I'm starting fresh.
01:11:24Right.
01:11:24Um...
01:11:26Hi.
01:11:29I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:11:33Don't let me go!
01:11:34I got you.
01:11:36I'll never let you go.
01:11:39Are you okay?
01:11:41Yeah.
01:11:41It's an old wound that, um...
01:11:44never really healed.
01:11:47I understand.
01:11:52Daniel Johnson.
01:11:52Nice to meet you.
01:11:58Please.
01:12:07Are you ready?
