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 and is 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?

00:00:21Hermick.

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.

00:00:32What 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.

00:00:46He 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?

00:01:09Who 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?

00:01:20Wow, you did your homework.

00:01:21Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.

00:01:25I 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?

00:01:40You'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.

00:02:17I need to get those paparazzi off her back.

00:02:20You've always loved her, Daniel.

00:02:22I've seen it.

00:02:23She 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.

00:02:32I 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.

00:02:49Mom, Daniel.

00:02:52What's going on?

00:02:56What's going on?

00:02:57Honey!

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, ugh.

00:03:07But I need to go.

00:03:08I have an appointment with your stylist.

00:03:11Think about it, Daniel.

00:03:16Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.

00:03:21Then I will be free.

00:03:22Sabrina, 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.

00:03:41Yeah.

00:03:41And then he cheated on you.

00:03:42And 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.

00:03:48But first, your mother and I need to talk.

00:03:51No!

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 Vanity Fair shoot.

00:04:15I got something I need to tell you.

00:04:18I'll make it quick.

00:04:19This isn't easy, but I'm-

00:04:21Ew, what is this?

00:04:23It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.

00:04:25I 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.

00:04:42I waited.

00:04:50I gave it everything I had.

00:04:54But 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.

00:05:03Enough.

00:05:03I want a divorce.

00:05:11I want a divorce.

00:05:17Sabrina, did you hear me?

00:05:20Huh?

00:05:20I want a divorce.

00:05:25I want chicken nuggets.

00:05:26Give 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?

00:05:41Your 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.

00:05:55My 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.

00:06:11Love 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.

00:06:31The 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.

00:06:39After all I've sacrificed.

00:06:40My scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.

00:06:46At least there is one good thing to come from this.

00:06:49I 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, but 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.

00:07:19And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.

00:07:28That's wonderful, dear.

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

00:07:54and 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.

00:08:25If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.

00:08:32You destroyed me.

00:09:01I was just the one left.

00:09:16Sabrina, don't!

00:09:19Stay back.

00:09:21I mean it.

00:09:22Sabrina, don't do this.

00:09:25Just...

00:09:27Just give me your hand.

00:09:31No!

00:09:42Daniel!

00:09:45I got you.

00:09:47No!

00:09:48Don't let me go!

00:09:50I won't ever let you go.

00:09:51I'm so alone, Daniel.

00:10:00Nobody sees the real me.

00:10:01I see you, Sabrina.

00:10:03I see all of you.

00:10:05And you're never going to be alone again.

00:10:07Good to see you.

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.

00:10:24Yeah, of course, babe.

00:10:25Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.

00:10:27Are you kidding?

00:10:27Oh, Daniel.

00:10:28Preston's going to 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.

00:10:38How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?

00:10:43Stop!

00:10:44I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.

00:10:50Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.

00:10:53Daniel!

00:10:54Oh.

00:10:54Don't embarrass me.

00:10:55No, it's fine.

00:10:57Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?

00:11:01He's not just tough, he's Brett Steele tough, you think, you know?

00:11:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.

00:11:08He doesn't let me do anything.

00:11:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.

00:11:13What are you saying, huh?

00:11:14Yeah.

00:11:15Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.

00:11:19It's fine.

00:11:20It's fine.

00:11:22Just relax, okay?

00:11:23Be nice.

00:11:25Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her

00:11:38when he breaks her heart again.

00:11:41Yeah, it's nice, but this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.

00:11:52Ooh, careful.

00:11:53You all right?

00:11:57I'm still starving.

00:11:59Make me some food.

00:12:01Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.

00:12:03Stew?

00:12:05Ew.

00:12:05What is this, a soup kitchen?

00:12:07I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!

00:12:10Daniel, 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.

00:12:16Daniel, I'm a billionaire.

00:12:20Oh, babe.

00:12:21For real?

00:12:22Yeah.

00:12:23My makeup line took me all the way to the top.

00:12:26Donovan Cosmetics.

00:12:28I'm rich.

00:12:30Which means we don't have to be grateful.

00:12:33I 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.

00:12:39You're so caught up on the morals.

00:12:41You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.

00:12:43They 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.

00:12:51So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?

00:12:56My treat.

00:12:57Here we go.

00:12:58What?

00:12:59Oh, you don't have to do that.

00:13:00I don't mind.

00:13:02All of you insist.

00:13:03I mean, I'm already dressed.

00:13:05So.

00:13:06Okay.

00:13:08Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.

00:13:12So, anyways.

00:13:14Come on, Ben.

00:13:14Let's go.

00:13:16Let's go.

00:13:17Gotcha.

00:13:17There we go.

00:13:19Oh.

00:13:19There's Paps.

00:13:22You don't have to come, Daniel.

00:13:24Last time.

00:13:25I promise.

00:13:28You're right.

00:13:29It is the last time.

00:13:32Hey, guys.

00:13:35Hi.

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.

00:13:50Why 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?

00:13:59I don't care if I walk away with nothing.

00:14:01Why would Celeste invite me here?

00:14:14Why would Celeste invite me here?

00:14:21She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.

00:14:23Sabrina Donovan?

00:14:27I could scream.

00:14:28I'm literally obsessed with you.

00:14:30Preston Eastwood.

00:14:31I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.

00:14:34Oh, gee.

00:14:35I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.

00:14:38A scene that I wrote.

00:14:39Uncredited, of course.

00:14:40Even my success is shadowed by her fame.

00:14:43Wait.

00:14:43Are you two dating?

00:14:44Oh, well, actually.

00:14:45This is totally a date.

00:14:47All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.

00:14:55Do you mind just giving me a little space?

00:14:58You'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.

00:15:27This 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.

00:15:43She 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 when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with 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 cool 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.

00:16:20Now that's a Hollywood couple.

00:16:38I told you this divorce was a mistake.

00:16:43Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.

00:16:49Daniel!

00:16:50You know, it's probably for the best.

00:16:53From the sound of it, your 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?

00:16:59Is he looking over here?

00:17:01Fuck, that's not good.

00:17:02I was just doing that for publicity.

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.

00:17:14Jackson, enough.

00:17:17What do I do?

00:17:19Well, that's it then.

00:17:21Now I need to handle Sabrina.

00:17:22I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with 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, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.

00:17:40I know the contract is over, but 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.

00:18:02Daniel, 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.

00:18:09Are 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.

00:18:36That's fine.

00:18:37Daniel'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.

00:18:59No, 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.

00:19:21Daniel!

00:19:25Please.

00:19:26Better than yours.

00:19:28Yeah.

00:19:29Shh, shh, shh, shh.

00:19:31Oh!

00:19:33Oh, 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...

00:20:01I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.

00:20:05You can trust me.

00:20:08Preston, I think you're too drunk.

00:20:10You need to light it out.

00:20:12All right.

00:20:15Daniel, seriously, listen, man.

00:20:17When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.

00:20:23I'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?

00:20:36Yeah.

00:20:37My 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

00:20:56husband.

00:20:57Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?

00:21:01Oh my God.

00:21:04God, you're unbelievable.

00:21:09Are 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...

00:21:15What?

00:21:18You know what?

00:21:18Fine.

00:21:21You two look great together.

00:21:23Daniel, I...

00:21:23And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.

00:21:39Um...

00:21:43I 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.

00:22:02Daniel.

00:22:03Daniel.

00:22:04Daniel.

00:22:05Daniel.

00:22:06Daniel.

00:22:07I 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.

00:22:37Look at her now, playing house for another man.

00:22:42If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.

00:22:47There he is.

00:22:51God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.

00:23:07Man.

00:23:08No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.

00:23:11Life of an A-lister, I guess.

00:23:12I've got some, yeah, what do you need, oh, oh, yeah, there you go.

00:23:20I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.

00:23:23Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.

00:23:25Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.

00:23:27Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?

00:23:35No, a 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.

00:24:09Here we go.

00:24:10Ooh.

00:24:11No, it's not to play with them.

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.

00:24:25It'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!

00:24:37Don't push.

00:24:44I said don't push.

00:24:45Go get a book or something.

00:24:46Why don't you get your hands off him?

00:24:48He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.

00:24:51God, what the hell?

00:24:52You just shot me.

00:24:56Call it a lesson.

00:24:57I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.

00:24:58He's not your kid.

00:25:00I wish I was!

00:25:01I hope Mom marries him so you can be gone forever!

00:25:05I hate seeing your stupid face!

00:25:07Ouch!

00:25:08I mean, you just heard your son.

00:25:10So why don't you make this little vacay of yours permanent?

00:25:13Maybe it will be.

00:25:14But until then, I'm still the man of the house.

00:25:17You?

00:25:18Man 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.

00:25:40Jackson, 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!

00:25:49You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.

00:26:15What was that?

00:26:17Daniel!

00:26:19What is happening?

00:26:20It was Dad, Mom!

00:26:21Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!

00:26:22What?

00:26:23I'm so scared!

00:26:24He got me pretty good, babe!

00:26:25What the hell, Daniel?

00:26:26I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.

00:26:27He came in looking for a fight.

00:26:28What?

00:26:29I didn't?

00:26:30Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?

00:26:31You're acting like a jealous child!

00:26:32I thought you were bigger than this petty shit!

00:26:34He threw a fish tank at me!

00:26:35It's just a fucking fish tank!

00:26:36I didn't!

00:26:37I didn't!

00:26:38I didn't!

00:26:39Daniel, 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!

00:26:48Remember 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 press that attacked me?

00:26:55Maybe I should go, I'm sorry.

00:26:58No!

00:26:59Oh my God!

00:27:00He's lying!

00:27:02You're a monster!

00:27:03And in front of your son?

00:27:04You have to be kidding!

00:27:05We have to get you to the hospital.

00:27:06We'll talk about this when I get home.

00:27:07Clean this up!

00:27:08Soon you won't be coming home to me ever again.

00:27:09She's mine now, loser.

00:27:11I'm bleeding out.

00:27:12I think I hit an artery.

00:27:13I need an ambulance now.

00:27:14Now!

00:27:15Now!

00:27:16Now!

00:27:17I'm bleeding out.

00:27:18I think I hit an artery.

00:27:19I need an ambulance now.

00:27:20Now!

00:27:21Now!

00:27:22She's mine now, loser.

00:27:33Hello, 911. What's your emergency?

00:27:35I'm bleeding out. I think I hit an artery.

00:27:38I need an ambulance now. Now.

00:27:41You did lose a lot of blood, so we're gonna have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquids.

00:27:55To be honest, that's... I could use a break from home.

00:27:58Trouble with the missus?

00:28:01Uh, yeah. Pretty obvious.

00:28:05Most married folks that come in here are miserable.

00:28:08I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.

00:28:15True love story holding hands, wiping tears.

00:28:19I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.

00:28:22You said, um, couple?

00:28:25I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official.

00:28:29She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.

00:28:34She was so sweet.

00:28:38You need us to check on that shoulder for you?

00:28:42No, it's... it's an old wound.

00:28:46I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.

00:28:49Daniel!

00:28:51Sweet and caring.

00:28:54So Preston's found the WiFi I always wanted.

00:28:57He only had to break her heart to get it, and left me to pick up the pieces.

00:29:02Fuck it.

00:29:03I need to get my shit in y'all.

00:29:12Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.

00:29:15You once liked my short film.

00:29:16I have a script I've been sitting on.

00:29:18It needs the right producer.

00:29:28I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.

00:29:32Where have you been?

00:29:34I kept calling.

00:29:35I started to feel like one of my stalkers.

00:29:38Huh?

00:29:39What?

00:29:40I've been busy.

00:29:41Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.

00:29:46Seriously?

00:29:47Why does it always have to come back to him?

00:29:51I told you, he's just a friend.

00:29:53Yeah.

00:29:54That's what you want to call it?

00:29:57I, I just, I'm sorry.

00:30:02I, bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.

00:30:07It is what it is.

00:30:11But I mean, you know how the industry works.

00:30:15You 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.

00:30:24But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.

00:30:31Seriously.

00:30:32I, I care about you.

00:30:39I'm no man.

00:30:41I'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.

00:30:57A performance.

00:31:00Sabrina.

00:31:04Sabrina, I'm good.

00:31:05You know what?

00:31:06I hate fighting.

00:31:07So, let's just forget about this, okay?

00:31:10I was thinking we could revisit your script.

00:31:17I gave that to you three years ago.

00:31:20You telling 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.

00:31:34I 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 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.

00:31:59What?

00:32:02I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it was awful.

00:32:22Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you.

00:32:24I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.

00:32:26That's not what I meant.

00:32:27I 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.

00:32:40I 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.

00:32:49Married people are fucking boring.

00:32:52It'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.

00:33:06Just leave it.

00:33:08I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.

00:33:10And what?

00:33:11It 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 her from here.

00:33:22We'll just talk about this tomorrow.

00:33:38What?

00:33:40Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?

00:33:41Yeah.

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.

00:33:51This 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?

00:34:17Maybe she's embarrassed by him.

00:34:19I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.

00:34:25Oh, 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.

00:34:35Do 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?

00:34:45Do 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.

00:34:56Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.

00:35:06What are you doing here?

00:35:07You never come to these things.

00:35:09Well, that's gotta be the husband.

00:35:13Get lost.

00:35:14You 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.

00:35:41You 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.

00:35:48That's not what I see.

00:35:50You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid and pit a fight with an A-lister.

00:35:58That's the kind of story the press would devour.

00:36:02Doesn'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.

00:36:15Hey.

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.

00:36:53What 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?

00:37:04Look at her go.

00:37:06Hollywood's finest.

00:37:08Always performing when there's an audience.

00:37:10It'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.

00:37:20No.

00:37:21No, 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?

00:37:30Hmm.

00:37:31Daniel.

00:37:32Is that true?

00:37:36Sabrina.

00:37:38Oh!

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.

00:37:48But Daniel.

00:37:49Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.

00:37:55Mommy, please, we can't leave him.

00:38:09I...

00:38:10I have...

00:38:11I have to help Preston.

00:38:27Come on, Jackson.

00:38:32Daniel!

00:38:33I got you.

00:38:34Don't let me go!

00:38:35She's made her choice.

00:38:36There's no going back.

00:38:37We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.

00:38:43Well, that went even better than I planned.

00:38:46Now we can make a clean break.

00:38:48I wasn't waiting for your permission.

00:38:49There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.

00:38:51Get out of Hollywood.

00:38:52In fact, get out of the country.

00:38:53If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your own

00:38:55answer.

00:38:56I'm sorry.

00:38:57I'm sorry.

00:38:58I'm sorry.

00:38:59I'm sorry.

00:39:00I'm sorry.

00:39:01I'm sorry.

00:39:02I'm sorry.

00:39:03I'm sorry.

00:39:04I'm sorry.

00:39:05I'm sorry.

00:39:06I'm sorry.

00:39:07I'm sorry.

00:39:08I'm sorry.

00:39:09I'm sorry.

00:39:10I'm sorry.

00:39:11I'm sorry.

00:39:12I'm sorry.

00:39:13I'm sorry.

00:39:14I'm sorry.

00:39:15I'm sorry.

00:39:16I'm sorry.

00:39:17But, in fact, get out of the country.

00:39:19If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.

00:39:25Don't worry about it.

00:39:34Just drive.

00:39:47I used to ache for her approval.

00:39:51Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.

00:39:55Seriously?

00:39:57Slow down.

00:39:58I know.

00:39:59Why is he down?

00:40:00I'm gonna go call the doctor, okay?

00:40:05What are you doing?

00:40:06I thought you were hurt.

00:40:07I think I'll pull through.

00:40:15So what are you doing?

00:40:17I've always wanted to.

00:40:19Come on.

00:40:20I know you want this.

00:40:21I see the way you look at me.

00:40:23Daniel's gone.

00:40:24We have the house to ourself.

00:40:26I can finally have you in this bedroom.

00:40:39What am I doing?

00:40:40Daniel is still injured.

00:40:42He should be home.

00:40:45Sabrina?

00:40:57Preston.

00:40:58Get off.

00:40:59What?

00:41:00Babe, we can finally come on.

00:41:02I said get off.

00:41:03What?

00:41:04I need to go take care of Daniel.

00:41:05No.

00:41:06Forget about him.

00:41:07Look.

00:41:08I love Jackson and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.

00:41:12I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.

00:41:16I mean come on.

00:41:17Sabrina.

00:41:18Your son.

00:41:19Your mother.

00:41:20Even Daniel is pushing us together.

00:41:22What?

00:41:23Look.

00:41:24He's already moved on.

00:41:25No.

00:41:26No.

00:41:27What have I done?

00:41:28Where is he?

00:41:29What about me?

00:41:30You had your chance ten years ago.

00:41:31I need to go take care of my husband.

00:41:32Hello?

00:41:33Excuse me.

00:41:34Excuse me.

00:41:35Hi.

00:41:36Have you seen my husband?

00:41:37Please, he was someone bleeding out.

00:41:38I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.

00:41:44He didn't come back in though.

00:41:46Oh no.

00:41:47Oh no.

00:41:48Oh no.

00:41:49Oh no.

00:41:50Oh no.

00:41:51Daniel, where are you?

00:41:52I'm sorry but the number is up.

00:41:53I'm sorry but the number is up.

00:41:54I'm sorry.

00:41:55I'm sorry.

00:41:56I'm sorry.

00:41:57I'm sorry.

00:41:58I'm sorry.

00:41:59I'm sorry.

00:42:00I'm sorry.

00:42:01I'm sorry.

00:42:02I'm sorry.

00:42:03I'm sorry.

00:42:04I'm sorry.

00:42:05I'm sorry.

00:42:06I'm sorry.

00:42:07But the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.

00:42:09Please try again later.

00:42:10What have I done?

00:42:12Come on, Daniel.

00:42:25Answer me.

00:42:32He's not gone.

00:42:33I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.

00:42:44He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.

00:42:48No.

00:42:51It's not possible.

00:42:53He will be back.

00:42:56No.

00:42:57No.

00:43:08Boy, it's all assets.

00:43:09Claims zero, Castillo, Jackson.

00:43:12The waves all spousal support.

00:43:15No.

00:43:16No.

00:43:17He can't leave me.

00:43:18He can't do this to me.

00:43:19I won't sign off on him.

00:43:27No.

00:43:28No.

00:43:29All this time?

00:43:30Who's gonna leave me?

00:43:32No.

00:43:33All this time?

00:43:34Who's gonna leave me?

00:43:49It can't be.

00:43:50It's not a...

00:43:51Honestly?

00:43:52It doesn't matter.

00:43:53My mom will look it over anyways.

00:43:54He loves me.

00:43:55He loves Jackson.

00:43:56He wouldn't just leave us.

00:43:57We're his family.

00:43:58After all these years.

00:43:59Everything we've been through.

00:44:00He loves Jackson.

00:44:01He wouldn't just leave us.

00:44:02We're his family.

00:44:04And after all these years.

00:44:07Everything we've been through.

00:44:09Ahem.

00:44:30I got you.

00:44:32Don't let me go!

00:44:34Was I ever really paying attention?

00:44:40Daniel?

00:44:41No, it's Mom. Is everything okay?

00:44:44You sound panicked.

00:44:44Mom.

00:44:46Mom.

00:44:48Daniel.

00:44:49He just left us.

00:44:52Do you know where he is?

00:44:55We have to find him.

00:44:56We can check the hospital or the...

00:44:58Oh, honey.

00:45:00It'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.

00:45:37Yay! He's gone! He's gone!

00:45:40Why would you say that?

00:45:42He was so embarrassing!

00:45:43Even Mr. Eastwood...

00:45:45Mr. Eastwood?

00:45:46What did Preston say?

00:45:48He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man.

00:45:55He was so lame and boring.

00:45:57Now he's gone!

00:45:59Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.

00:46:01He can be my new dad!

00:46:03Jackson!

00:46:03You have a dad, and he's cared for you for seven years!

00:46:08Yeah, but I hate him!

00:46:10Hello? 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? He's not the man you think he is.

00:46:45Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there, and we need to find him at all costs.

00:46:51What kind of coward abandons his family? It's despicable.

00:46:56I can't do this anymore. I'll cancel everything. The interviews and the red carpets. I don't want to be seen. I can't pretend. I just want him back.

00:47:09Oh, honey. 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.

00:47:38Daniel'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?

00:47:55What are you talking about?

00:47:58Forget it. Forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything.

00:48:01When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.

00:48:06Is there something you're not telling me?

00:48:09Please. I just want the truth.

00:48:12Mom.

00:48:14Fine.

00:48:15I will tell you the truth.

00:48:17But promise me you won't get mad.

00:48:21I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.

00:48:25But no, it was all for your own good.

00:48:31When Preston left you, you were distraught.

00:48:34I had to save you.

00:48:36She's lost without you, Daniel.

00:48:40You've always been there for her.

00:48:42From film school to now.

00:48:43I've seen it.

00:48:45She needs you.

00:48:46Stay.

00:48:48Marry her.

00:48:48Love her.

00:48:50So that she's never alone again.

00:48:58It was all just some sort of obligation?

00:49:02How could you do this to me?

00:49:03I wanted to protect you.

00:49:06You wanted to control me.

00:49:07All 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.

00:49:20Daniel did what he was meant to do.

00:49:22He kept you together.

00:49:24Where?

00:49:25Where did he go?

00:49:27I know he told you where he went.

00:49:29Where is he?

00:49:30You can do better than him.

00:49:32You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.

00:49:36Believe me, it's for the best.

00:49:38No, he can't be gone.

00:49:40He can't.

00:49:41Yes, he is gone.

00:49:43And he is gone forever.

00:49:45He can't be.

00:49:46He can't be gone.

00:49:47He can't.

00:49:48I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated

00:50:12a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.

00:50:17Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.

00:50:23Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.

00:50:27What's going through your head tonight?

00:50:30Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed.

00:50:33Nobody told me how.

00:50:34Oh, man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.

00:50:38I've heard this talk of a sequel.

00:50:40Uh, yeah, um, God, my career has been a long time in the making.

00:50:45And I haven't been very honest about it, actually.

00:50:47I almost, I almost gave up the dream.

00:50:49But London, London lit the fire under me.

00:50:53And I feel like I found my voice.

00:50:54And it really is full steam ahead.

00:50:57Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way

00:51:01back to Hollywood?

00:51:04Hollywood.

00:51:06Get out of the country.

00:51:08If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.

00:51:18Daniel?

00:51:18He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.

00:51:35Daniel is a true auteur and a pretty genius.

00:51:39And it was a privilege to be his leading lady.

00:51:43That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning

00:51:47actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.

00:51:51Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.

00:51:54We'll never tell.

00:51:59Oh, my God.

00:52:00Thanks for saving me.

00:52:01She was practically eye-fucking you.

00:52:03I know, jeez.

00:52:05This is so surreal.

00:52:06I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.

00:52:08I can.

00:52:09The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.

00:52:14Daniel.

00:52:15Enjoy this.

00:52:17And get used to compliments.

00:52:20There's already Oscar buzz.

00:52:21Fuck.

00:52:22Finish me, I know.

00:52:23I feel like I'm dreaming.

00:52:24You okay?

00:52:28You always do that when you're nervous.

00:52:30I know, it's, um, we'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.

00:52:51Met them.

00:52:53Our press is good press.

00:52:54Daniel becomes an award-winning director,

00:53:01and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?

00:53:06He 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 can 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.

00:53:26How 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.

00:53:39A mansion in the hills.

00:53:41An adorable kid.

00:53:43Well, and he's not whining.

00:53:44And don't forget about Preston, your dream man.

00:53:48You have everything.

00:53:50I don't have him.

00:53:53Mom, I'm hungry.

00:53:54Go have the chef make something.

00:53:56No, I hate what she cooks, and 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.

00:54:07Daniel'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.

00:54:23Enough!

00:54:24You little shit!

00:54:27Enough!

00:54:28Just enough!

00:54:29Sabrina?

00:54:30What's gotten into you?

00:54:32Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.

00:54:36Whoa.

00:54:36What's going on here?

00:54:38This room feels really tense.

00:54:40Mom just yelled at me for no reason.

00:54:42I was just making fun of Daniel.

00:54:44No!

00:54:45I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.

00:54:47And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.

00:54:50It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!

00:54:57Hey, babe.

00:54:58Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?

00:55:02Really?

00:55:03Loser?

00:55:04Yeah.

00:55:04You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.

00:55:08And 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

00:55:22in the last year.

00:55:24Come on, we're America's power couple.

00:55:26To be a power couple, you both have to have power.

00:55:29Face it, Preston.

00:55:30You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.

00:55:33And you're a fucking thief.

00:55:36Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.

00:55:38You've been stealing from me all year long.

00:55:40I could have you arrested, but I haven't.

00:55:43Because you know what?

00:55:44Honestly, I pity you.

00:55:46It's not like that.

00:55:47Okay?

00:55:48Look, I was just merging things like couples do.

00:55:50I 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?

00:56:02Oh, 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.

00:56:18And you know what?

00:56:18I'm done.

00:56:20Get out.

00:56:21I don't want to ever see you again.

00:56:23We're over.

00:56:25We're over.

00:56:26No, babe, babe, come on.

00:56:27Please, please, 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,

00:56:35all of this will get a lot uglier.

00:56:37Get out.

00:56:38Babe, just...

00:56:38Now.

00:56:39Just give me your hand.

00:56:40Come on.

00:56:41No.

00:56:42I'm so alone, Daniel.

00:56:44But nobody sees the real me.

00:56:46I see you, Sabrina.

00:56:48I see all of you.

00:56:51And you're never going to 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?

00:57:10You don't even know how ironic that is.

00:57:12Daniel saved me from the ledge.

00:57:15And he saved me from you.

00:57:18Security!

00:57:20Security!

00:57:21Come on, just let's talk about this.

00:57:23No, just...

00:57:24Come on.

00:57:25Celeste, do something!

00:57:27Come on, Sabrina!

00:57:28Come on, Sabrina!

00:57:30Was that really necessary?

00:57:32I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister

00:57:34and people's sexiest man alive.

00:57:36Is that all you care about?

00:57:37The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?

00:57:41God, you're supposed to be my mother first,

00:57:45not 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,

00:57:58then you will help me get Daniel back.

00:58:00You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.

00:58:14I'm kind of in shock right now.

00:58:16In film school,

00:58:18we were literally told to watch every single film

00:58:20that you ever produced.

00:58:22I mean, you know this.

00:58:23You're a legend.

00:58:25I appreciate it, Daniel.

00:58:26All right, let me cut to the chase.

00:58:27You're a powerhouse-sitting idol in the wrong country.

00:58:30I appreciate the compliment,

00:58:31but I mean, I'm doing all right.

00:58:32I got projects.

00:58:33Come on!

00:58:34You're built for billion-dollar franchises,

00:58:36Hollywood blockbusters,

00:58:38the one that gets made in L.A., not London.

00:58:40That's where you belong.

00:58:42To be honest, I already did all.

00:58:44It didn't really end well.

00:58:46Let me guess.

00:58:47A girl?

00:58:48If by a girl,

00:58:50he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.

00:58:53You don't walk away from a gift like yours

00:58:55over some heartbreak.

00:58:56You can become a household name,

00:58:58and I can get you there.

00:59:00You're giving me a lot to think about.

00:59:01Three-picture deal.

00:59:03Two hundred million dollar budget each.

00:59:04Creative 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.

00:59:13Just remember, Daniel,

00:59:14you can't run away from the past.

00:59:15You have to face it and tell the fuck off.

00:59:17Hey, it's been a while.

00:59:32Can we talk?

00:59:33Daniel, can you give us a hint

00:59:35about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?

00:59:37Of course, it's about a man

00:59:39who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart

00:59:41and 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.

00:59:53I'll leave it at that.

00:59:57You arrogant little shit.

00:59:58I told you if you ever set foot

01:00:01in this fucking country,

01:00:02I would unleash a world of hell.

01:00:08It's Celeste Donovan.

01:00:10I need a favor.

01:00:11I need you to track down Daniel Johnson

01:00:13and find out where he'll be

01:00:14around eight o'clock tonight.

01:00:17It's time for a little reunion

01:00:19with Hollywood's newest hotshot.

01:00:22Mom, what are you doing?

01:00:27Did you just break my TV?

01:00:29Can you give us a name

01:00:30for your upcoming film?

01:00:32You know I'm not supposed to do that.

01:00:34You've been so kind, though.

01:00:35It's called You Drive Me Crazy.

01:00:40He's back.

01:00:42Why 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.

01:00:50I need to get on that movie.

01:00:52Absolutely not.

01:00:53You're not working for your ex-husband.

01:00:55If you don't get me an audition,

01:00:56then I will get a manager who will.

01:00:58Honey, I'm just looking out for you.

01:01:01He still loves me.

01:01:03He has to.

01:01:05I just need to talk to him.

01:01:08Let him go.

01:01:11Mom.

01:01:13Honey, 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.

01:01:23I love you.

01:01:25I love you, too.

01:01:29Here we go.

01:01:31This is, um...

01:01:32It's another movie deal.

01:01:34I'll tell you about it after.

01:01:35Did you get his location?

01:01:53The Oaks.

01:01:548 p.m.

01:01:56After I'm done with him,

01:01:57Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.

01:02:00He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.

01:02:11She's not protecting me.

01:02:14She's protecting her business.

01:02:16And I'm just a pawn.

01:02:17But if she wants a scandal,

01:02:19she'll get one.

01:02:21It's so nice having you back.

01:02:24And I don't just mean from the UK.

01:02:26Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?

01:02:28A couple?

01:02:30Daniel, it was ten years of you

01:02:32slaving away for those people,

01:02:34if 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

01:02:39that I loved Sabrina,

01:02:41but I really thought I could make it work.

01:02:43The marriage, the kids.

01:02:46I mean, we really tried.

01:02:47I thought I could make it go for it,

01:02:48but, um...

01:02:50It's over.

01:02:52It's over.

01:02:53I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy

01:02:55she thinks Preston Eastwood can offer.

01:03:04Oh.

01:03:05You haven't heard?

01:03:07She 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?

01:03:34I'm here to help you.

01:03:36Sabrina.

01:03:37We're making a scene.

01:03:39Let's go home.

01:03:40Sabrina?

01:03:41How could you?

01:03:42What?

01:03:42I just came to ask Daniel

01:03:44if he'd let you audition,

01:03:45but he said no.

01:03:46I begged and pleaded.

01:03:48Stop lying.

01:03:49I saw you bribe the waiter

01:03:51to drug Daniel's drink.

01:03:53And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,

01:03:56to catch him drugged out of his mind

01:03:57and ruin him.

01:03:59My God.

01:04:00You're disgusting.

01:04:01I'm a manager, Daniel.

01:04:03I'm a manager, Daniel.

01:04:03Not anymore.

01:04:04Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?

01:04:09I don't even know who you are anymore.

01:04:12I'm your mother.

01:04:14I only want what's best for you.

01:04:17What's best for me?

01:04:18You've been controlling my life

01:04:22ever since you knew

01:04:23you could profit from it.

01:04:25That all ends today.

01:04:29You're fired.

01:04:31Fired.

01:04:32No.

01:04:36No.

01:04:41No.

01:04:42You can't do this to me.

01:04:44Please.

01:04:44Please, sweetie.

01:04:45I have dedicated my life to you.

01:04:47You dedicated your life to money

01:04:49and to fame.

01:04:52I was just who you used to get to it.

01:04:54You think you can survive

01:04:56on sheer talent?

01:04:57There's a thousand girls more talented

01:04:59than you waiting for their shot.

01:05:01I made you.

01:05:02You'd be nothing without me.

01:05:07I think she'll do just fine.

01:05:14We're done here, Mom.

01:05:17If you want any chance

01:05:18to be in Jackson's life

01:05:20or in mine,

01:05:22you'll leave now.

01:05:24Without another word.

01:05:32I have something to say.

01:05:37I'm sorry, Daniel.

01:05:42I'm sorry I took you for granted

01:05:43all of those years.

01:05:45I'm sorry I let my mom

01:05:47manipulate and use you.

01:05:50I'm sorry I brought Preston

01:05:52into our home

01:05:53and poison our son

01:05:55towards you.

01:05:59Apologize to your father.

01:06:01Do I have to?

01:06:02Who raised you?

01:06:05Cared for you?

01:06:07Packed your lunches

01:06:09when I was on set?

01:06:11Laid with you

01:06:12when you had nightmares

01:06:13and coddled you

01:06:13when you were sick.

01:06:15He did.

01:06:16He loved you.

01:06:18But you treated him

01:06:18like he was nothing.

01:06:20I was wrong.

01:06:21Jackson,

01:06:22he gave us ten years

01:06:24of his life

01:06:24and we abused it.

01:06:26And now there is

01:06:27nothing we can do

01:06:29to take that back.

01:06:30I'm sorry, Dad.

01:06:32It's going to be okay, son.

01:06:37I still love you.

01:06:38Okay.

01:06:39Come on, Jackson.

01:06:40Let's go.

01:06:47I'm sorry, Daniel.

01:06:50For everything.

01:06:51I know that look, Daniel.

01:07:02You're thinking

01:07:03of going back to them.

01:07:04Oh.

01:07:07I just didn't know

01:07:08it would be this hard.

01:07:09They hurt you, Daniel.

01:07:12They tore you to pieces

01:07:13and then just expected

01:07:15you to come running back.

01:07:19People can change.

01:07:21But that doesn't

01:07:22change the past.

01:07:27And the Oscar goes to

01:07:28Daniel Johnson

01:07:30for his original screenplay,

01:07:32Loving Her.

01:07:35Daniel!

01:07:36Daniel!

01:07:36Daniel, is it true

01:07:39that the script

01:07:39that won you Oscars

01:07:40for both writing

01:07:41and directing

01:07:41sat on a shelf

01:07:42for ten years?

01:07:43Yes.

01:07:44I'll admit,

01:07:45I got a little sidelined,

01:07:46but I think

01:07:47I found my way back.

01:07:50But, okay,

01:07:50I'll tell you this.

01:07:53I don't think

01:07:54you can truly

01:07:55love someone else

01:07:56until

01:07:57you love yourself.
