00:00:00Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:00:04You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:00:06You will end up with nothing.
00:00:08The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:11I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:00:14Why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:00:16Perfect.
00:00:17Get out of Hollywood.
00:00:18In fact, get out of the country.
00:00:21I gave it everything I had.
00:00:23Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:00:26No.
00:00:27What have I done?
00:00:28He can't be gone.
00:00:29He can't.
00:00:30Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:00:33Being with me hurt his career.
00:00:35Look at what you've got.
00:00:36You have everything.
00:00:38I don't have him.
00:00:41Daniel!
00:00:41He still loves me.
00:00:43He has to.
00:00:44And we need to find him at all costs.
00:00:46Daniel.
00:00:53And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:59That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:01:04Who knew the house hubby had it in him?
00:01:06I'm an industry joke now.
00:01:09Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat
00:01:13on a shelf for 10 years?
00:01:15Wow, you did your homework.
00:01:16Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:01:21I will tell you this.
00:01:22I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:01:27Daniel really did it.
00:01:29The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:01:32You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:01:36You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:01:38Our contract expired.
00:01:40I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:01:43If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing.
00:01:46The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:49I'll always love my son.
00:01:54But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:58You used to worship Sabrina.
00:02:00What happened?
00:02:01That was a long time ago.
00:02:03America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:02:06All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:02:10But her career is hanging by a thread.
00:02:12I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:02:15You've always loved her, Daniel.
00:02:17I've seen it.
00:02:19She needs that now.
00:02:21Stay.
00:02:22Marry her.
00:02:24Love her.
00:02:25So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:02:28I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:02:31And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:02:35If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:02:41This was the last one.
00:02:44Mom, Daniel.
00:02:47What's going on?
00:02:51What's going on?
00:02:53Honey!
00:02:54I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:59If the paparazzi catch him next to you, ugh.
00:03:02But I need to go.
00:03:03I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:03:06Think about it, Daniel.
00:03:08Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:03:18Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:03:20Ugh, can it wait?
00:03:21I'm seriously so spent.
00:03:24I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:03:28I saw it.
00:03:29Preston was there.
00:03:29I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:03:34I mean, we owe him.
00:03:36Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:03:40I'm starving.
00:03:41When are we eating?
00:03:42Lunch is on the stove.
00:03:44But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:47No!
00:03:47I want to eat now!
00:03:49You always know the spot.
00:04:01He doesn't listen.
00:04:02Daniel, please.
00:04:04I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs at that god-awful Vanity Fair shoot.
00:04:11I got something I need to tell you.
00:04:13I'll make it quick.
00:04:14This isn't easy, but I know.
00:04:16Ew, what is this?
00:04:17It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:04:20I don't want healthy food.
00:04:21I want chicken nuggets.
00:04:22Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:04:24You can't have that every day.
00:04:26It's not healthy for you.
00:04:27But I want them.
00:04:29Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:04:33You suck.
00:04:34I want chicken nuggets.
00:04:36Give me chicken nuggets.
00:04:44I waited.
00:04:45I gave it everything I had.
00:04:48But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:51And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:57Enough.
00:04:57Just enough.
00:04:59I want a divorce.
00:05:03I want a divorce.
00:05:06I want a divorce.
00:05:12Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:05:15Huh?
00:05:17I want a di-
00:05:20I want chicken nuggets.
00:05:22Give me chicken nuggets.
00:05:23Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:05:27Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:05:29We'll get you some real food.
00:05:35Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:05:39I mean, it's not that hard.
00:05:41What is this?
00:05:44Another contract?
00:05:45How big is the role?
00:05:47Who's directing?
00:05:49It's not a-
00:05:50Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:52Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:55Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:58I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:06:03Pull my weight?
00:06:04Yeah, you get it.
00:06:07Mwah.
00:06:08Love you.
00:06:09I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:06:13If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:06:16Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:06:26The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:06:29We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:06:31I can't.
00:06:32My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:06:34After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:06:42At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:45I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:49Hey, mom.
00:06:49How you doing?
00:06:50Oh, good, dear.
00:06:52I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:56Do you need more?
00:06:56No, no, no, no.
00:06:57You've already done so much.
00:07:00I'm just trying to help.
00:07:01I know, but I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:07:06I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:07:13I am, mom.
00:07:14And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:07:23You have a wonderful fear.
00:07:24You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:07:27Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:07:29I gotta go.
00:07:30Love you.
00:07:33What is it, mom?
00:07:35Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:07:37Our favorite leading man.
00:07:39Come on.
00:07:46Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:53Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:57All right, cut.
00:08:04That's a wrap, everyone.
00:08:07We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:08:10Sabrina was a rising star.
00:08:13I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:17Our future's ahead of us.
00:08:20If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:24She's right.
00:08:24Ooh.
00:08:47Mm, mm, mm.
00:08:49Yeah.
00:08:49You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:57There's nothing left.
00:09:11Sabrina, don't!
00:09:13Stay back.
00:09:15Don't.
00:09:16I mean it.
00:09:17Sabrina, don't do this.
00:09:20Just...
00:09:23Just give me your hand.
00:09:36No!
00:09:38Daniel!
00:09:40I got you.
00:09:41No!
00:09:42Don't let me go!
00:09:44I won't ever let you go.
00:09:51I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:54Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:56I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:58I see all of you.
00:10:00And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:10:10Good to see ya!
00:10:11Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:10:12Oh, too long.
00:10:13Look at you!
00:10:14Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:10:18Yeah, of course, babe.
00:10:19Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:10:21Are you kidding?
00:10:22Oh, Daniel.
00:10:23Uh, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:10:26Oh, there he is!
00:10:28The assistant!
00:10:29I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quiet like this guy.
00:10:33God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:37Stop!
00:10:38I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:45Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:48Daniel!
00:10:49Oh.
00:10:50Don't embarrass me.
00:10:51No, it's fine.
00:10:52Whoa, you played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:56He's not just tough, he's Bret Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:11:00My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it. He doesn't let me do anything.
00:11:04Well, now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of Dad's rules. What do you say?
00:11:08Huh?
00:11:09Yeah.
00:11:10Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:11:14It's fine.
00:11:15It's fine.
00:11:16Just relax, okay?
00:11:18Be nice.
00:11:27Some people never change.
00:11:29But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:35Yeah, it's nice, but this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:11:48Oh, careful. You all right?
00:11:50I'm still starving. Make me some food.
00:11:55Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:58Stew?
00:12:00Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:12:02I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:12:05Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:12:08I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:11Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:12:14What?
00:12:15Oh, babe.
00:12:16For real?
00:12:17Yeah.
00:12:18My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:12:21Donovan Cosmetics.
00:12:23I'm rich.
00:12:25Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:12:28I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:32See, Daniel, that was always your problem. You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:35You realize that's why no one bought your scripts. They were so dull.
00:12:39Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:42Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:46So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant? My treat.
00:12:52Here we go.
00:12:53What?
00:12:54Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:55I don't mind.
00:12:56All of you insist. I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:59Okay.
00:13:00Oh.
00:13:01Okay.
00:13:03Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so.
00:13:07Anyways, come on, Ben. Let's go.
00:13:10Looks great. Gotcha.
00:13:12Oh, thanks.
00:13:13Here we go.
00:13:14Oh.
00:13:15There's Paps.
00:13:17You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:13:19Last time.
00:13:20I promise.
00:13:23You're right.
00:13:24It is the last time.
00:13:27Hey, guys.
00:13:29Hi.
00:13:30Jackson.
00:13:31Jackson.
00:13:37Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:41Contract's fine.
00:13:44It's over.
00:13:45Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:49I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:53After ten years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:56Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:58She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:14:03Sabrina Donovan.
00:14:04I could scream.
00:14:05I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:14:06Preston Eastwood.
00:14:07I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:08OMG.
00:14:09I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:14:10A scene that I wrote.
00:14:11Uncredited, of course.
00:14:12Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:13Wait.
00:14:14Wait.
00:14:15Wait.
00:14:16Wait.
00:14:17Wait.
00:14:18Wait.
00:14:19Wait.
00:14:20Wait.
00:14:21Wait.
00:14:22Wait.
00:14:23Wait.
00:14:24Wait.
00:14:25Wait.
00:14:26Wait.
00:14:27Wait.
00:14:28Wait.
00:14:29Wait.
00:14:30Wait.
00:14:31Wait.
00:14:32Wait.
00:14:33Wait.
00:14:34Wait.
00:14:35Wait.
00:14:36Wait.
00:14:37wait?
00:14:38Wait.
00:14:39Wait.
00:14:40Are you two dating?
00:14:41Oh well actually,
00:14:42This is totally a date.
00:14:43All these years,
00:14:44I could't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:50Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:53You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:55Your brand?
00:14:56It's just,
00:14:57it's not a good look for me.
00:14:59You get it.
00:15:00Right?
00:15:07So, you two are a thing?
00:15:10Well, I...
00:15:11It's okay, babe. We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:15:22This is so going viral.
00:15:24I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:15:26It looks like more than dating.
00:15:28Is this your son?
00:15:29I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:32Don't be silly.
00:15:33You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:36That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:38He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:41But Preston is awesome.
00:15:44He's an action spy.
00:15:45I wish he was my dad.
00:15:48My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:51But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:15:53when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty
00:15:56with a call girl.
00:15:57It's okay, buddy.
00:15:58Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:16:00If you want me around, I'm in.
00:16:03That is if mom's school is it.
00:16:05Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:16:07Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:16:09Preston, what are you doing?
00:16:13Come on.
00:16:14Let's give him a show.
00:16:15Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:35I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:38Sabrina will end up on top,
00:16:39and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:42Daniel!
00:16:46You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:48And the sound of it,
00:16:49your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:52Daniel, he's here?
00:16:54Did he see us?
00:16:55Is he looking over here?
00:16:56Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:16:57I was just doing that for publicity.
00:16:59I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:17:00Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:17:02Once that loser's out of the picture,
00:17:04Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:17:06Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:17:08Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:17:09Jackson, enough.
00:17:12What do I do?
00:17:14Well, that's it then.
00:17:16Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:17:18I need to leverage her relationship with Preston,
00:17:20with the tabloids.
00:17:21I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:24You're really good at that.
00:17:26Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:30A one-way ticket,
00:17:32so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:36I know the contract is over,
00:17:37but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:41I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:44Daniel loves me.
00:17:45He has to understand.
00:17:46This is Hollywood.
00:17:47It's just part of the job.
00:17:50Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:52Daniel, what is this?
00:18:00I can't let her create a public scene.
00:18:02All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:18:05Are you going somewhere?
00:18:07Honey, what a coincidence.
00:18:10We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:18:13Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:18:15A vacation?
00:18:16Finally.
00:18:17You're paying attention.
00:18:19Yeah.
00:18:20I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:22Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:24What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:26Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:27That's not what I meant.
00:18:28Whoa.
00:18:29Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:31That's fine.
00:18:33Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit,
00:18:35just like any good husband would.
00:18:37Oh, I see.
00:18:39Is it me?
00:18:40Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:42I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:44I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:46Um, you know what?
00:18:47Maybe I should go.
00:18:48I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:50No, please stay.
00:18:51I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:54No, you know what?
00:18:55I'll go.
00:18:57And clearly she wants you.
00:18:59I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:19:00Daniel, wait.
00:19:03I won't ever let you go.
00:19:04He won't leave.
00:19:05He promised.
00:19:07It doesn't have to be like this.
00:19:09We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:19:11I'm going to go back.
00:19:13Daniel!
00:19:21Better than yours.
00:19:23Yeah.
00:19:24Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:19:26Oh, good.
00:19:29You're up.
00:19:30Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:35It's fun.
00:19:36Well, don't look at me like that.
00:19:39I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:42Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:46How lucky for him.
00:19:47He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:51Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:54Listen, man, I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:20:00You can trust me.
00:20:03Preston, I think you're a good mom.
00:20:05You need to go right now.
00:20:07All right.
00:20:08Oh, hey.
00:20:10Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:20:12I, I, when you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:20:18I, I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:20:21Just ignore him.
00:20:22He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:24No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:27Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:30Jealous?
00:20:32My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:35Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:39You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:43That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:52Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:58My God.
00:20:59God, you're unbelievable.
00:21:04Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:21:08No, it's not like that.
00:21:10I, what?
00:21:12You know what, fine.
00:21:16You two look great together.
00:21:18Daniel, I...
00:21:31And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:34I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:46Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:51I was never the homemaker.
00:21:56Please, Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:57Daniel.
00:21:58Daniel.
00:21:58Daniel.
00:21:58Daniel.
00:21:58Daniel.
00:21:59Daniel.
00:22:00Daniel.
00:22:01Daniel.
00:22:02Daniel.
00:22:03Daniel.
00:22:04Daniel.
00:22:05Daniel.
00:22:06Daniel.
00:22:07Daniel.
00:22:08Daniel.
00:22:09Daniel.
00:22:10Daniel.
00:22:11I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:13Daniel.
00:22:14Daniel.
00:22:15Daniel.
00:22:16Daniel.
00:22:17If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:19I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:21Daniel.
00:22:22Daniel.
00:22:23Daniel.
00:22:24Meow.
00:22:25
00:22:34Look at her now.
00:22:36Playing house for another man.
00:22:37If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:41It actually mattered.
00:22:58There he is.
00:23:00God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m., man.
00:23:03No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:23:06Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:23:08I got some.
00:23:12Yeah.
00:23:13What do you need?
00:23:14Oh, oh.
00:23:15Yeah, there you go.
00:23:16I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:23:19Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:21Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:26Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:32You're not?
00:23:33A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:36Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:41It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:54What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:55Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:56I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:24:00And it's unfair!
00:24:01That's a shame, huh?
00:24:02You know what?
00:24:03Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:24:05Here we go.
00:24:07Ooh.
00:24:08No, it's not to play with them.
00:24:12You never let me do anything!
00:24:14Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:17You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:19It's not about the money.
00:24:21It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:24Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:24:28Yeah?
00:24:29What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:31You're so annoying!
00:24:33Don't push.
00:24:35I said don't push.
00:24:40Go get a book or something.
00:24:42Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:44He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.
00:24:47God, what the hell is you just showing me?
00:24:52Call it a lesson.
00:24:53I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:54He's not your kid.
00:24:56I wish I was!
00:24:58I hope Mom marries him so you can be gone forever!
00:25:01I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:25:02Ouch!
00:25:04I mean, you just heard your son.
00:25:06So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:25:08Hermit.
00:25:09Maybe it will be.
00:25:10But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:13You?
00:25:15Man of the house? Please.
00:25:17You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:18I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid,
00:25:19much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:22And you're a washed up pack!
00:25:24Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:26How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:28I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:30I'm a fucking star!
00:25:31A star?
00:25:32A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:35Jackson, come on.
00:25:37I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:38No, I'm not going!
00:25:40Preston's way cooler than you!
00:25:42Preston! Preston! Preston!
00:25:44Preston!
00:26:01You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:11What was that?
00:26:18Daniel!
00:26:19What is happening?
00:26:21It was Dad, Mom! Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!
00:26:24What?
00:26:25I'm so scared!
00:26:26You got me pretty good, babe.
00:26:28What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:29I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:30I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:31What?
00:26:32I didn't?
00:26:33Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:35You're acting like a jealous child!
00:26:37I thought you were bigger than this petty shit!
00:26:39He threw a fish tank at me!
00:26:41It's just a fucking fish tank! Grow up!
00:26:43Remember where in the public eye?
00:26:45What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:47What, everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:26:51Maybe I should go, I'm sorry.
00:26:54No! Oh my God!
00:26:56He's lying!
00:26:58You're a monster!
00:27:00And in front of your son?
00:27:02You have to be kidding!
00:27:04We have to get you to the hospital.
00:27:06We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:09Come on, clean this up!
00:27:12Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:15Oh, she's mine now, loser.
00:27:28Hello, 9-1-1, what's your emergency?
00:27:31I'm bleeding out.
00:27:32I think I hit an artery.
00:27:34I need an ambulance now.
00:27:35Now!
00:27:45You did lose a lot of blood, so we're gonna have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquids.
00:27:51To be honest, that's... I could use a break from home.
00:27:54Trouble with the missus?
00:27:57Uh...
00:27:59Yeah. Pretty obvious.
00:28:01Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:28:03I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:28:09With Preston Eastwood.
00:28:11True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:15I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.
00:28:18You said, um, couple?
00:28:20I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official!
00:28:24She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:30She was so sweet.
00:28:35Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:38No, it's...
00:28:40It's an old wound.
00:28:42I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:45Daniel!
00:28:46Sweet and caring.
00:28:49So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:53He only had to break her heart to get it.
00:28:55And left me to pick up the pieces.
00:29:02Fuck!
00:29:04I'm gonna go get my shit and go.
00:29:07Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:10You once liked my short film.
00:29:11I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:13It needs the right producer.
00:29:23I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:28Where have you been?
00:29:30I kept calling.
00:29:31I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:34Huh?
00:29:38What? I've been busy.
00:29:40Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:41Uh, seriously?
00:29:44Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:46I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:49Uh, yeah.
00:29:51That's what you want to call it?
00:29:53I...
00:29:54I just...
00:29:56I'm sorry. I...
00:29:58Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:30:01It is what it is.
00:30:03But I mean...
00:30:05You know how the industry works.
00:30:07You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:11And I think you should go for it.
00:30:13I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:14But...
00:30:15I just...
00:30:16I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:18Seriously.
00:30:19I...
00:30:20I care about you.
00:30:21I'm not mad.
00:30:22I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:23I know when you're angry.
00:30:25Really? I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:27I pay attention?
00:30:29Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:30She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:31That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:32A headline.
00:30:33A performance.
00:30:35Sabrina.
00:30:37Sabrina.
00:30:39Sabrina.
00:30:41Sabrina.
00:30:43I'm not mad.
00:30:45I'm not mad.
00:30:47I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:48I know when you're angry.
00:30:50Really? I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:52I pay attention?
00:30:54Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:56She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:58That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:59A headline. A performance.
00:31:00You know what?
00:31:02I hate fighting.
00:31:03So let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:06I was thinking
00:31:08we could revisit your script.
00:31:13I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:15You telling me you finally read it?
00:31:17Well, yeah.
00:31:19The first ten pages.
00:31:20But they're good.
00:31:22The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:25I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:26Me and you.
00:31:27The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:31I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:35A long time ago.
00:31:37Well, how about you make us some lattes
00:31:40and for the next hour we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:31:44Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:46There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:49I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:52Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:54What?
00:31:55I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone and it was awful.
00:32:03Well, if I had a lot of experience making it for you, I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:04That's not what I meant.
00:32:05I like it when you make it.
00:32:06I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:07I knew it.
00:32:08You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:09I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:10You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:11I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:12I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:16I knew it.
00:32:18Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:24I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:27It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:32Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:35I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:40It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:44Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:48It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:49No, Daniel.
00:32:51No, that's not what I meant.
00:32:58Look what you made me do.
00:32:59Just leave it.
00:33:03I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:07And what?
00:33:08It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:10I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:12And look what I get for it.
00:33:14You know what?
00:33:15Forget it.
00:33:16I have a mirror.
00:33:17We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:33What?
00:33:34Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:36Yeah.
00:33:37Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:38Not quite.
00:33:39That was the divorce contract.
00:33:41But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:45This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:47Remember that.
00:33:48I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:33:50I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:05Oh, please.
00:34:06She's always been so secretive.
00:34:08I mean, this is her movie premiere in Where Is Her Husband.
00:34:12Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:14I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:17Oh, well, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:23Come here.
00:34:24Oh.
00:34:27Jackson!
00:34:28We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:31Do you know where she is?
00:34:32Or who she's with?
00:34:34She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:35He's been staying with us.
00:34:37Oh.
00:34:38Really?
00:34:39Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:43Oh, I hope so.
00:34:44I really hope so.
00:34:45He's way cooler than my old, boring, real dad.
00:34:48Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:51Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:01What are you doing here?
00:35:02You never come to these things.
00:35:04Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:07Get lost.
00:35:08You embarrass us.
00:35:10Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:12I'm your father.
00:35:13I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:18Is there a problem?
00:35:21Oh, my God.
00:35:25That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:26How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:29If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:32I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:34You're a pathetic loser.
00:35:35Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:37You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:35:42I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:44That's not what I see.
00:35:45You showed up uninvited.
00:35:48In street rags, abuse Sabrina's kid, and pit a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:54That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:35:57It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:00And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:04This was all a stunt, was it?
00:36:06You were revolting.
00:36:08No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:10Hey.
00:36:13Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:36:14Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:18Yeah.
00:36:19Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:20Oh, yeah?
00:36:21What lesson's that, Preston?
00:36:22You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:27Hmm.
00:36:27What the hell?
00:36:50What happened?
00:36:52Oh, my God.
00:36:53Daniel.
00:36:54What the hell happened?
00:36:56Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:58Are you okay?
00:36:59Look at her go.
00:37:01Hollywood's finest.
00:37:03Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:05It's Daniel.
00:37:07He's a monster.
00:37:08He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:11Mommy, Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:14No.
00:37:15No, that's not true.
00:37:17If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:22Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:24Daniel, is that true?
00:37:30Sabrina.
00:37:32Oh!
00:37:34Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:37I think one of them's broken.
00:37:39Sabrina?
00:37:40Honey?
00:37:41We need to help Preston.
00:37:44But Daniel.
00:37:46Daniel.
00:37:48Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:51Mommy, please.
00:38:03We can't leave him.
00:38:05I have to help Preston.
00:38:08Come on, Jackson.
00:38:29Daniel!
00:38:30I got you.
00:38:32Don't let me go!
00:38:33She'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.
00:38:54Now we can make a clean break.
00:38:56I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:38:58There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:03Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:04In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:07If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:14Don't worry about it.
00:39:29Just drive.
00:39:30I used to ache for her approval.
00:39:46Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:39:50Seriously?
00:39:51Just lay down.
00:39:52I know.
00:39:53Why is it down?
00:39:54Oh.
00:39:55I'm not going to call the doctor.
00:39:56Okay?
00:39:57What are you doing?
00:40:00I thought you were hurt.
00:40:02I think I'll pull through.
00:40:10Preston, what are you doing?
00:40:11I've always wanted to.
00:40:14Come on.
00:40:14I know you want this.
00:40:15I see the way you look at me.
00:40:17Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:40:21I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:27What am I doing?
00:40:35Daniel is still injured.
00:40:37He should be home.
00:40:40Sabrina?
00:40:51Preston, get off.
00:40:53What?
00:40:55Babe, we can finally.
00:40:56Come on.
00:40:57I said get off.
00:40:58What?
00:40:59I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:01No, forget about him.
00:41:02Look, I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:07I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:11I mean, come on.
00:41:12Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:41:15Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:17What?
00:41:17Look, he's already moved on.
00:41:22No.
00:41:23No.
00:41:25What have I done?
00:41:26Where is he?
00:41:28What about me?
00:41:29You had your chance ten years ago.
00:41:32I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:40Hello?
00:41:41Excuse me.
00:41:43Excuse me.
00:41:44Hi.
00:41:44Have you seen my husband?
00:41:46Please, he was someone bleeding out.
00:41:49I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:53He didn't come back in, though.
00:41:56Oh, no.
00:41:58God, Daniel, where are you?
00:42:00I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:04Please try again later.
00:42:07What have I done?
00:42:08What have I done?
00:42:08Oh, come on, Daniel.
00:42:20Answer me.
00:42:26He's not gone.
00:42:28I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:30He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:42:43No.
00:42:46It's not possible.
00:42:48He will be back.
00:42:52No.
00:42:52No.
00:42:52No.
00:42:52No.
00:42:52No.
00:42:52No.
00:42:53No.
00:42:54No.
00:42:55No.
00:42:55No.
00:42:56No.
00:42:56No.
00:42:56No.
00:42:56No.
00:42:57No.
00:42:57No.
00:42:57No.
00:42:57No.
00:42:58No.
00:42:58No.
00:42:59No.
00:43:00No.
00:43:02Boy, it's all assets.
00:43:04Climb 0, Garcia, Jackson.
00:43:07The waves all spousal support.
00:43:10No.
00:43:10No.
00:43:11No.
00:43:11He can't leave me.
00:43:12He can't do this to me.
00:43:14I won't sign off on him.
00:43:25No.
00:43:26All this time, he's going to leave me?
00:43:30It can't be
00:43:46It's not a
00:43:48Honestly, it doesn't matter
00:43:50My mom will look it over anyways
00:43:51He loves me
00:43:54He loves Jackson
00:43:56He wouldn't just leave us
00:43:58We're his family
00:43:59After all these years
00:44:01Everything we've been through
00:44:03I got you
00:44:26Don't let me go
00:44:28Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:35Daniel?
00:44:36No, it's mom
00:44:37Is everything okay?
00:44:39You sound panicked
00:44:39Mom!
00:44:42Mom!
00:44:43Daniel!
00:44:44He just left us
00:44:46Do you know where he is?
00:44:50We have to find him
00:44:51We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:53Oh, honey
00:44:54It's over
00:44:56Daniel's not coming back
00:44:58You knew?
00:44:59I'll come over in the morning
00:45:01And explain everything
00:45:02I'm hungry!
00:45:11Dad!
00:45:12Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:45:15Jackson?
00:45:17I have something to tell you
00:45:20Your dad
00:45:23Your dad
00:45:27He's left us
00:45:29I'm sorry, but he's not coming back
00:45:32Yay!
00:45:33He's gone!
00:45:33He's gone!
00:45:34I'm sorry, I'm sorry
00:45:35I'm sorry, I'm sorry
00:45:36Why would you say that?
00:45:37He was so embarrassing
00:45:38Even Mr. Eastwood
00:45:40Mr. Eastwood?
00:45:42What did Preston say?
00:45:44He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:45:45Should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:45:47Then raising a young man
00:45:49He was so lame and boring
00:45:52Now he's gone!
00:45:54Mr. Eastwood is way cooler
00:45:56He can be my new dad
00:45:58Jackson
00:45:58You have a dad
00:46:00And he's cared for you for seven years
00:46:03Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:14Ms. Donovan?
00:46:15It's your accountant
00:46:16I noticed a few unusual transfers
00:46:18I'm sorry, I don't have the time
00:46:20Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood
00:46:24Was that done with your approval?
00:46:25No
00:46:26But I'm not surprised
00:46:27Flag his name
00:46:29I want him frozen and cut off
00:46:31Jackson
00:46:33I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again
00:46:36Okay?
00:46:38He's not the man you think he is
00:46:39Your father
00:46:40The one who raised you and cared about you
00:46:42Is out there
00:46:43And we need to find him
00:46:45At all costs
00:46:46What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:46:49Huh?
00:46:50It's despicable
00:46:51I can't do this anymore
00:46:53I cancel everything
00:46:56The interviews and the red carpets
00:46:58I don't want to be seen
00:47:00I can't pretend
00:47:02I just want him back
00:47:05Oh honey
00:47:06It's time to let him go
00:47:08You don't love him anyway
00:47:10And think about what Preston would do for your career
00:47:14What?
00:47:18How could you say something like that?
00:47:20Of course I love Daniel
00:47:22He cares for me
00:47:24He sees me
00:47:25He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing
00:47:29But Daniel is a pathetic nobody
00:47:32Daniel's my husband
00:47:35And the father of my son
00:47:37Yeah, some husband
00:47:38Abandoning you without a moment's notice
00:47:40Wanting nothing to do with his child
00:47:41Just because the contract ended?
00:47:43Contract?
00:47:45What contract?
00:47:50What are you talking about?
00:47:53Forget it
00:47:54Forget it
00:47:55Just pretend I didn't say anything
00:47:56When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day
00:48:00You said that he was going on a trip
00:48:01Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:04Please
00:48:05I just want the truth
00:48:06Mom
00:48:07Fine
00:48:09I will tell you the truth
00:48:12But promise me you won't get mad
00:48:14I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina
00:48:19But no, it was all for your own good
00:48:23When Preston left you, you were distraught
00:48:29I had to save you
00:48:31She's lost without you, Daniel
00:48:33You've always been there for her
00:48:36From film school to now
00:48:38I've seen it
00:48:39She needs you
00:48:41Stay
00:48:42Marry her
00:48:43Love her
00:48:44So that she's never alone again
00:48:47It was all just some sort of obligation
00:48:55How could you do this to me?
00:48:59I wanted to protect you
00:49:01You wanted to control me
00:49:02All because you needed me for my career
00:49:05My money
00:49:05Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:11You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop
00:49:15Daniel did what he was meant to do
00:49:17He kept you together
00:49:19Where?
00:49:20Where did he go?
00:49:22I know he told you where he went
00:49:24Where is he?
00:49:25You can do better than him
00:49:27You are Sabrina Donovan
00:49:29Hollywood starlet
00:49:31Believe me, it's for the best
00:49:33No
00:49:34He can't be gone
00:49:35He can't
00:49:36Yes
00:49:36He is gone
00:49:38And he is gone forever
00:49:39He can't be
00:49:41He can't be gone
00:49:42He can't
00:49:43I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame the Silver Fox
00:50:06That's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director
00:50:10Speaking of which, there he is now
00:50:14Mr. Daniel Johnson
00:50:15Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival
00:50:22What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:25Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed
00:50:28Nobody told me how
00:50:30Oh man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be
00:50:32I've heard this talk of a sequel
00:50:34Uh, yeah, um
00:50:36God, my career has been a long time in the making
00:50:39And I've been very honest about it actually
00:50:42I almost, I almost gave up the dream
00:50:43But London
00:50:45London lit the fire under me
00:50:47And I feel like I've found my voice
00:50:49And it really is
00:50:51Full steam ahead
00:50:52Speaking of London
00:50:53Since you're an American writer-director
00:50:55Will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:50:59Hollywood
00:51:00Get out of the country
00:51:02If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid
00:51:07That will make your life a living hell
00:51:10Daniel?
00:51:27He's no good at bragging about himself
00:51:28So I'll do it for him
00:51:30Daniel is a true auteur
00:51:32And a creative genius
00:51:34And it was a privilege to be his leading lady
00:51:37That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake
00:51:40Two-time Golden Globe Award winning actress
00:51:42And celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company
00:51:46Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional
00:51:49We'll never tell
00:51:51Oh my god, thanks for saving me
00:51:56She was practically eye-fucking you
00:51:58I know, jeez
00:51:59This is so surreal
00:52:01I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me
00:52:03I can
00:52:04The moment I read your script
00:52:06I knew you were special
00:52:07Daniel
00:52:09Enjoy this
00:52:11And get used to compliments
00:52:14There's already Oscar buzz
00:52:16Fuck
00:52:17Finish me, I know
00:52:18I feel like I'm dreaming
00:52:19You okay?
00:52:23You always do that when you're nervous
00:52:25I know, it's, um
00:52:26I'll have it
00:52:28Well
00:52:29The world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker
00:52:32Some of us just got a head start
00:52:35I know
00:52:47All press is good press
00:52:49Daniel becomes an award-winning director
00:52:56And he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch
00:53:00You can't do this to me
00:53:03Sabrina
00:53:04You don't need him
00:53:05Let him have his 15 minutes of fame
00:53:07How could he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:10Move on?
00:53:12Please, honey
00:53:13He is using her
00:53:15Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:18He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name
00:53:21How could you say that?
00:53:22I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career
00:53:26He's proving that to the whole world
00:53:28Don't you see it?
00:53:29Sabrina
00:53:30Look at what you've got
00:53:32A celebrated career
00:53:34A mansion in the hills
00:53:36An adorable kid
00:53:37Well, when he's not whining
00:53:39And don't forget about Preston
00:53:41Your dream man
00:53:43You have everything
00:53:45I don't have him
00:53:48Mom, I'm hungry
00:53:49Go have the chef make something
00:53:51No, I hate what she cooks
00:53:53And I'm tired of chicken nuggets
00:53:54Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:56Don't talk about him like that
00:53:58He's your dad
00:53:59No
00:54:00Preston is my real dad now
00:54:01Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks
00:54:04And cleaned the toilet
00:54:05It was fun telling him what to do
00:54:07When did he get so cruel?
00:54:09You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover
00:54:13A doormat
00:54:14Daniel's a doormat
00:54:16Daniel's a doormat
00:54:18Enough
00:54:18Enough
00:54:19You little shit
00:54:20Enough
00:54:22Just enough
00:54:24Sabrina
00:54:25What's gotten into you?
00:54:27Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man
00:54:30Whoa
00:54:31What's going on here?
00:54:33This room feels really tense
00:54:35Mom just yelled at me for no reason
00:54:37I was just making fun of Daniel
00:54:39No
00:54:39I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father
00:54:42And if you keep talking like that
00:54:44I'm going to put you in a timeout
00:54:45It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat
00:54:49Hey man
00:54:53Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:54:56Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:57Really?
00:54:58Loser?
00:54:59Yeah
00:54:59You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston
00:55:02And you've been mooching off from me
00:55:04And ordering my staff around like you're their boss
00:55:08That's really, really low
00:55:13Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand
00:55:16I'm keeping it from collapsing in the last year
00:55:18Come on, we're America's power couple
00:55:21To be a power couple, you both have to have power
00:55:23Face it, Preston
00:55:25You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up
00:55:28And you're a fucking thief
00:55:31Yeah, I know you're bankrupt
00:55:33You've been stealing from me all year long
00:55:35I could have you arrested
00:55:37But I haven't
00:55:38Because you know what?
00:55:40Honestly, I pity you
00:55:41It's not like that, okay?
00:55:43Look, I was just merging things like couples do
00:55:45I want to marry you
00:55:47We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty
00:55:49What's my birthday?
00:55:51Huh?
00:55:52What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:54What's my favorite color?
00:55:55My favorite song?
00:55:57Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:59Oh, oh wait
00:56:00What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:02You don't give a shit about me
00:56:05You don't love me
00:56:06You don't even know me
00:56:08This isn't a relationship
00:56:09This is a publicity stunt
00:56:12And you know what?
00:56:13I'm done
00:56:14Get out
00:56:15I don't want to ever see you again
00:56:18We're over
00:56:19We're over
00:56:20What?
00:56:21No, babe, babe, come on
00:56:22Please, please, I love you
00:56:24Just, just think about it
00:56:25Look at the press
00:56:26What this will look like
00:56:27If I have to call my security
00:56:29All of this will get a lot uglier
00:56:32Get out
00:56:33Hey, just
00:56:33Now
00:56:34Just give me your hand
00:56:35Come on
00:56:36No
00:56:36I'm so alone, Daniel
00:56:38Nobody sees the real thing
00:56:41I see you, Sabrina
00:56:42I see all of you
00:56:45And you're never gonna be alone again
00:56:47He truly knew me
00:56:51He loved me
00:56:53Every flaw
00:56:55Every fear
00:56:56Contract or not
00:56:58He truly
00:57:00Loved me
00:57:01I saved you from social suicide
00:57:03Saved me?
00:57:05You don't even know how ironic that is
00:57:07Daniel saved me from the ledge
00:57:10And he saved me
00:57:11From you
00:57:12Security
00:57:14Security
00:57:16Come on, just let's talk about this
00:57:18No
00:57:18Come on
00:57:20Celeste, do something
00:57:21Sabrina
00:57:22Come on, Sabrina
00:57:24Stop
00:57:25Was that really necessary?
00:57:27I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:57:29And people's sexiest man alive
00:57:31Is that all you care about?
00:57:33The fame, the headlines, the brand deals
00:57:36God
00:57:37You're supposed to be my mother first
00:57:40Not some money-grubbing manager
00:57:42Sabrina
00:57:43You are being dramatic
00:57:44Of course I care about you
00:57:47I love you
00:57:49Then prove it
00:57:50If you ever want me in front of a camera again
00:57:53Then you will help me get Daniel back
00:57:55You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee
00:58:09I'm kind of in shock right now
00:58:11In film school
00:58:12We were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced
00:58:16I mean, you know this
00:58:18You're a legend
00:58:19I appreciate it, Daniel
00:58:21All right, let me cut to the chase
00:58:22You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country
00:58:25I appreciate the compliment
00:58:26But I mean, I'm doing all right
00:58:27I got projects
00:58:28Come on
00:58:29You're built for billion dollar franchises
00:58:31Hollywood blockbusters
00:58:32The one that gets made in LA
00:58:34Not London
00:58:35That's where you belong
00:58:36To be honest, I already did LA
00:58:39It didn't really end well
00:58:41Let me guess
00:58:42My girl?
00:58:43If by a girl
00:58:44He means Hollywood royalty
00:58:46Sabrina Donovan
00:58:48You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak
00:58:51You can become a household name
00:58:53And I can get you there
00:58:55You're giving me a lot to think about
00:58:56Three picture deal
00:58:57Two hundred million dollar budget each
00:58:59Creative control and final cut approval
00:59:01I don't know what to say
00:59:03Just say yes
00:59:04You have my number
00:59:04Just don't keep me waiting
00:59:06Just remember, Daniel
00:59:09You can't run away from the past
00:59:10You have to face it
00:59:11And tell the fuck off
00:59:13Hey, it's been a while
00:59:26Can we talk?
00:59:28Daniel, can you give us a hint
00:59:30About your first movie
00:59:31With Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:32Of course
00:59:33It's about a man
00:59:34Who gets fucked over
00:59:35By America's sweetheart
00:59:36And comes out on top
00:59:38Is this a personal story?
00:59:39Will we get a hint at
00:59:41Who the mystery woman is?
00:59:43Oh
00:59:43She knows who she is
00:59:47I'll leave it at that
00:59:49You arrogant little shit
00:59:54I told you
00:59:55If you ever set foot
00:59:56In this fucking country
00:59:57I would unleash a world of hell
00:59:58It's Celeste Donovan
01:00:05I need a favor
01:00:06I need you to track down
01:00:07Daniel Johnson
01:00:08To find out where he'll be
01:00:09Around 8 o'clock tonight
01:00:10Thank you
01:00:11It's time for a little reunion
01:00:14With Hollywood's newest hot shot
01:00:16Mom?
01:00:17What are you doing?
01:00:22Did you just break my TV?
01:00:24Can you give us a name
01:00:25For your upcoming film?
01:00:27You know I'm not supposed to do that
01:00:28You've been so kind though
01:00:30It's called
01:00:31You Drive Me Crazy
01:00:33He's back
01:00:36Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:39Honey
01:00:40I didn't want you spiraling again
01:00:42I'm not a fragile little girl anymore
01:00:44I need to get on that movie
01:00:46Absolutely not
01:00:48You're not working for your ex-husband
01:00:50If you don't get me an audition
01:00:51Then I will get a manager who will
01:00:53Honey
01:00:54I'm just looking out for you
01:00:55He still loves me
01:00:57He has to
01:01:00I just need to talk to him
01:01:02Let him go
01:01:05Mom
01:01:07Honey
01:01:09I
01:01:09You know
01:01:11I just want what's best for you
01:01:13Right?
01:01:13I just don't want to see
01:01:15My little girl hurt again
01:01:16I love you
01:01:19I love you too
01:01:21This is um
01:01:27It's another movie deal
01:01:29I'll tell you about it after
01:01:30Did you get his location?
01:01:48The Oaks
01:01:498pm
01:01:50After I'm done with him
01:01:52Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood
01:01:55He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever
01:01:58She's not protecting me
01:02:08She's protecting her business
01:02:10And I'm just a pawn
01:02:12But if she wants a scandal
01:02:14She'll get one
01:02:15It's so nice having you back
01:02:18And I don't just mean from the UK
01:02:21Yeah it's been a rough couple years hasn't it
01:02:23A couple
01:02:24Daniel it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people
01:02:28If you can even call them that
01:02:30But you're healthy now
01:02:31And I'm at the top of my career
01:02:32I mean yeah there was a time that I
01:02:35I love Sabrina
01:02:36But I really thought I could make it work
01:02:38The marriage
01:02:39The kids
01:02:40I mean we really tried
01:02:41I thought I could make it go for it
01:02:43But um
01:02:44It's over
01:02:46It's over
01:02:48I mean let her chase whatever fantasy
01:02:50She thinks Preston Eastwood can offer
01:02:52Oh
01:03:00You haven't heard
01:03:01She dumped him
01:03:04It was all over People magazine
01:03:06She ended it when his star faded
01:03:08Oh my god
01:03:10What?
01:03:16Daniel
01:03:17Stop
01:03:20Sabrina what are you doing here?
01:03:30I'm here to help you
01:03:31Sabrina
01:03:32You're making a scene
01:03:34Let's go home
01:03:35Sabrina
01:03:36How could you?
01:03:37What?
01:03:37I just came to ask Daniel
01:03:39If he'd let you audition
01:03:40But he said no
01:03:41I begged and pleaded
01:03:43Stop lying
01:03:44I saw you bribe the waiter
01:03:46To drug Daniel's drink
01:03:48And I'll bet you called the paparazzi
01:03:50To catch him drugged out of his mind
01:03:52And ruin him
01:03:54My god
01:03:55You're disgusting
01:03:56I'm a manager
01:03:57Daniel
01:03:58Not anymore
01:03:59Why did you become such a
01:04:01Conniving scheming snake?
01:04:03I don't even know who you are anymore
01:04:06I'm your mother
01:04:08I only want what's best for you
01:04:12What's best for me?
01:04:13You've been controlling my life
01:04:17Ever since you knew
01:04:18You could profit from it
01:04:19That
01:04:20All ends today
01:04:22You're fired
01:04:25Fired
01:04:27No
01:04:29No
01:04:32No
01:04:36You
01:04:37You can't do this to me
01:04:39Please
01:04:39Please
01:04:40Sweetie
01:04:40I have dedicated my life to you
01:04:42You dedicated your life to money
01:04:44And to fame
01:04:45I was just who you used to get to it
01:04:49You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:52There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot
01:04:56I made you
01:04:57You'd be nothing without me
01:04:59I think she'll do just fine
01:05:04We're done here, Mom
01:05:11If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life
01:05:15Or in mine
01:05:16You'll leave now
01:05:18Without another word
01:05:29I have something to say
01:05:32I'm sorry, Daniel
01:05:36I'm sorry I took you for granted
01:05:39All of those years
01:05:40I'm sorry I let my mom
01:05:42Manipulate and use you
01:05:44I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home
01:05:48And poisoned our son towards you
01:05:51Apologize to your father
01:05:55Do I have to?
01:05:57Who raised you?
01:06:00Cared for you?
01:06:03Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:06:06Laid with you when you had nightmares?
01:06:08And coddled you when you were sick?
01:06:10He did
01:06:10He loved you
01:06:12But you treated him like he was nothing
01:06:14I was wrong
01:06:16Jackson
01:06:17He gave us ten years of his life
01:06:19And we abused it
01:06:21And now there is nothing we can do to take that back
01:06:25I'm sorry, Dad
01:06:27It's going to be okay, son
01:06:31I still love you
01:06:32Okay
01:06:34Come on, Jackson
01:06:35Let's go
01:06:36I'm sorry, Daniel
01:06:44For everything
01:06:46I know that look, Daniel
01:06:57You're thinking of going back to them
01:06:59I just didn't know it'd be this hard
01:07:04They hurt you, Daniel
01:07:06They tore you to pieces
01:07:08And then just expected you to come running back
01:07:11People can change
01:07:15But that doesn't change the past
01:07:18And the Oscar goes to
01:07:23Daniel Johnson
01:07:25For his original screenplay
01:07:26Loving Her
01:07:27Daniel
01:07:28Daniel
01:07:30Daniel
01:07:31Daniel
01:07:31Daniel
01:07:32Daniel
01:07:32Daniel
01:07:33Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:07:38Yes
01:07:39I'll admit I got a little sidelined
01:07:41But, um
01:07:41I think I found my way back
01:07:43But, okay
01:07:45I'll tell you this
01:07:46Um
01:07:47I don't think you can truly love someone else
01:07:51Until
01:07:52You love yourself
01:07:54Way to go, John
01:07:59Thank you so much for considering me for this part
