Short filmTranscript
00:00:00She has to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:00:02Sabrina was a rising star, and 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? You 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?
00:00:21Come back. Get out of Hollywood. In fact, get out of the country.
00:00:25I gave it everything I had. Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:00:31No! What have I done? He 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. You have everything.
00:00:43I don't have him.
00:00:46He still loves me. He has to. And we need to find him at all costs.
00:00:51Daniel!
00:00:55And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:01:04Daniel!
00:01:06That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:01:09Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:01:13Daniel!
00:01:14Daniel, 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. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:01:26I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:01:33Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:01:38You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:01:44Our 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. The 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 her from the best in the business. His grandmother.
00:02:03You used to worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:02:06That was a long time ago.
00:02:07America'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 is hanging by a thread. I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:02:19You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:02:24She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So 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. And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:02:40If 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.
00:02:50Mom, Daniel. What's going on?
00:02:56What's going on?
00:02:57Honey!
00:02:59I 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. I 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, and then I will be free.
00:03:23Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:03:25Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:03:29I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:03:33I saw Preston was there.
00:03:36I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college. I mean, we owe him.
00:03:40Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:03:45I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:03:47Lunch is on the stove.
00:03:49But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:52No! I want to eat now!
00:03:54You 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 that that got off of 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?
00:04:22It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:04:25I don't want healthy food. I want chicken nuggets. Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:04:29You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:04:32But I want that.
00:04:34Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:04:38You suck. I want chicken nuggets. Give me chicken nuggets.
00:04:42You suck. I want it.
00:04:50I want it. I gave it everything I had.
00:04:53But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:55And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:05:01enough. Just enough.
00:05:07I want
00:05:09a divorce. I want
00:05:12a divorce.
00:05:16Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:05:20Huh?
00:05:21I want
00:05:23a
00:05:25I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:05:28Jackson, honey,
00:05:30you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:05:32Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:05:34We'll get you some real food.
00:05:40Seriously, your only
00:05:42job 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... Whatever, my mom will look over it
00:05:56anyways. Hard to believe
00:05:58I can't even get her to care about this.
00:06:00Honestly, I am really
00:06:02at my capacity.
00:06:03I have that red carpet event coming up
00:06:05and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:06:08Pull my weight?
00:06:09Yeah, you get it.
00:06:13Love you.
00:06:14I've devoted myself to this family
00:06:16for ten long years.
00:06:18If that wasn't enough,
00:06:19then this is the only option.
00:06:21Just wait until she realizes
00:06:23what life's like without me.
00:06:30The 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,
00:06:41my scripts,
00:06:42my career,
00:06:43my future,
00:06:45all pushed aside.
00:06:47At least there was one good thing to come from this.
00:06:49I was able to use the money Celeste gave me
00:06:52to save my mother's life.
00:06:53Hey, Mom.
00:06:54How you doing?
00:06:55Oh, good, dear.
00:06:56I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:07:01Do you need more?
00:07:01No, no, no, no.
00:07:02You've already done so much.
00:07:05I'm just trying to help.
00:07:06I know.
00:07:07But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:07:10I can't thank you enough
00:07:12for everything that you've done,
00:07:15but it's time you lived your life.
00:07:18I am, Mom.
00:07:20And I promise very soon
00:07:23everything'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.
00:07:33I gotta go.
00:07:34Love you.
00:07:38What is it, Mom?
00:07:39Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:07:42Our favorite leading man.
00:07:44Come on.
00:07:51Preston Eastwood,
00:07:52the man that broke my wife's heart
00:07:54and is stealing it back again.
00:07:58Preston Eastwood,
00:08:00the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:08:08All 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.
00:08:17I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:21Our future's ahead of us.
00:08:25If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:49You destroyed me, Rester.
00:09:01You spent some work.
00:09:08Sabrina, don't!
00:09:20Stay back.
00:09:21I mean it.
00:09:23Sabrina, don't do this.
00:09:26Just...
00:09:29Just give me your hand.
00:09:35No!
00:09:42Daniel!
00:09:45I got you.
00:09:46No!
00:09:47Don't let me go!
00:09:49I won't ever let you go.
00:09:52I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:58Nobody sees the real people.
00:10:01I see you, Sabrina.
00:10:03I see all of you.
00:10:05And you're never going to be alone again.
00:10:10Good to see you!
00:10:16Oh, my gosh.
00:10:17How 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.
00:10:23Of course, babe.
00:10:24Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:10:26Are 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.
00:10:37God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:42Stop!
00:10:43I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:49Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:53Daniel!
00:10:54Oh!
00:10:55Don't embarrass me.
00:10:56No, it's fine.
00:10:57Whoa!
00:10:58You played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:11:01He's not just tough.
00:11:02He's Bret Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:11:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:11:07He doesn't let me do anything.
00:11:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:11:12What are you saying, huh?
00:11:14Yeah.
00:11:15Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:11:18That's fine.
00:11:20That's fine.
00:11:21Just relax, okay?
00:11:23Be nice.
00:11:25Some people never change.
00:11:34But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:40Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:42But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:11:45Oh!
00:11:46Careful!
00:11:47You alright?
00:11:48I'm still starving!
00:11:49Make me some food!
00:11:50Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:51Stew?
00:11:52Ew.
00:11:53What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:54I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:55Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets!
00:12:00I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:03Daniel, I'm a billionaire!
00:12:04Oh, babe.
00:12:05For real?
00:12:06Yeah!
00:12:07My makeup line took me all the way to the top!
00:12:08Donovan Cosmetics!
00:12:09I'm rich!
00:12:10Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:12:11I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:13See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:14You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:15You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:16They were so bad.
00:12:17You know what?
00:12:18I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:19Daniel, 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?
00:12:55My treat.
00:12:56Here we go.
00:12:57What?
00:12:58Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:13:00I don't mind.
00:13:01I'll let you insist.
00:13:03I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:13:04Okay.
00:13:05Oh.
00:13:06Mm-hmm.
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:08Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:13:12So...
00:13:13Anyways!
00:13:14Come on, Ben.
00:13:15Let's go!
00:13:16Let's go.
00:13:17Gotcha.
00:13:18There we go.
00:13:19Oh!
00:13:20There'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.
00:13:31Hey, guys.
00:13:33Hi!
00:13:35Jackson!
00:13:36Jackson.
00:13:38Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:46Contract's fine.
00:13:48It'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.
00:13:57Is it ten years of heartbreak?
00:13:59I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:14:08Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:14:09She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:14:23Sabrina Donovan?
00:14:25I could scream.
00:14:26I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:14:27Preston Eastwood.
00:14:28I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:14:29OMG.
00:14:30I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:14:31A scene that I wrote.
00:14:32Uncredited, of course.
00:14:33Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:34Wait.
00:14:35Are you two dating?
00:14:36Oh, well, actually.
00:14:37This is totally a date.
00:14:38All 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.
00:15:03You get it, right?
00:15:06So, you two are a thing?
00:15:15Well, I-
00:15:16It'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.
00:15:43He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:46But Preston is awesome.
00:15:48He's an action spy.
00:15:50I wish he was my dad.
00:15:52My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:55But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood after party 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 school with it.
00:16:10Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:16:11Daniel, he, you know, he's- Preston, what are you doing?
00:16:15Come on, let's get Michelle.
00:16:22Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:38I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:42Sabrina will end up on top and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:47Daniel!
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?
00:16:58Did 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.
00:17:03I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:17:05Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:17:06Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:17:10Who cares about him, mommy?
00:17:12Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:17:14Jackson, enough.
00:17:15What do I do?
00:17:18Well, that's it then.
00:17:20Now 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.
00:17:28You're really good at that.
00:17:30Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:34A 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, I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:48Daniel loves me. He has to understand. This is Hollywood. It's just part of the job.
00:17:53Daniel, I can explain.
00:18:02Daniel, what is this?
00:18:05I can't let her create a public scene. All it takes is one article to get her cancelled.
00:18:10Are you going somewhere?
00:18:12Funny!
00:18:13Oh, 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. You're paying attention.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:25I'm gonna leave in a few days.
00:18:27Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:29What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:30Without 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.
00:19:01And clearly she wants you.
00:19:03He's willing to dance to his tune.
00:19:05Daniel, wait.
00:19:07I 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...
00:19:17I'm gonna go back.
00:19:21Daniel!
00:19:25Please.
00:19:26The bed's in here.
00:19:27This is...
00:19:28Yeah.
00:19:29Shhh.
00:19:30Shhh.
00:19:31Shhh.
00:19:32Shhh.
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.
00:19:42Don't look at me like that.
00:19:44I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:46Anyways, 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.
00:19:55Oh.
00:19:56Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:59Okay.
00:20:00Listen, man.
00:20:01I...
00:20:02I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:20:05You can trust me.
00:20:07Preston, I think you're...
00:20:10You need to lay down.
00:20:11All right.
00:20:12Oh.
00:20:13Hey.
00:20:15Daniel, seriously.
00:20:16Listen, man.
00:20:17I...
00:20:18When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:20:22I'm gonna 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.
00:20:34Jealous?
00:20:35My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:39Whatever.
00:20:40I'm going to bed.
00:20:44You know...
00:20:46I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:51That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:57Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:21:01Oh my God.
00:21:04God, you're unbelievable.
00:21:08Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:21:12No, it's not like that.
00:21:14I...
00:21:16What?
00:21:18You know what? Fine.
00:21:21You two look great together.
00:21:23Daniel, I...
00:21:31And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:43Um...
00:21:47I 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.
00:21:59Please, Daniel?
00:22:01Please, Daniel?
00:22:14I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:21If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:24I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:39Look at her now.
00:22:41Playing house for another man.
00:22:43If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:54If you're sick, can you take a shower?
00:22:55No.
00:22:56I've got a shower.
00:22:57I'm just going to take a shower.
00:22:58I don't know.
00:23:00I'm not going to have to be friends.
00:23:02You know what?
00:23:04I'm not going to have to.
00:23:06Hey!
00:23:07There he is.
00:23:08God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:23:09Man.
00:23:11No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:23:13Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:23:15Got some.
00:23:17Yeah.
00:23:18What do you need?
00:23:19Oh.
00:23:20Yeah, there you go.
00:23:21some of this shit, but I doubt you'll like it.
00:23:23Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:25Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:23:31Hey, you're not pissed off that your wife
00:23:34had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:36No, a grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:40Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:45It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:51What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:59Mr. Eastwood, I want to play with the fish,
00:24:03but my stupid dad won't let me, and 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.
00:24:11Ooh.
00:24:12He knows 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.
00:24:26It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:27Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:24:31Yeah?
00:24:33What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:35You're so annoying!
00:24:37Don't push.
00:24:39I said don't push, go 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 man-servant like you.
00:24:51God, what the hell's you just shopping?
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.
00:24:59I wish I would.
00:25:01I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:25:04I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:25:07Ouch.
00:25:08I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:25:10So why don't you make this little vacay yours permanent?
00:25:12Maybe it will be.
00:25:13But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:17Ooh, you?
00:25:19Man of the house, please.
00:25:20You'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, still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:29How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:32I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:33I'm a fucking star!
00:25:35A star?
00:25:36A 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.
00:25:44Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:46Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:25:56You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:15What was that?
00:26:22Daniel!
00:26:24What is happening?
00:26:25It was Dad, Mom!
00:26:26Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!
00:26:29What?
00:26:30That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:32What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:33I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:34He came in looking for a fight.
00:26:36What?
00:26:37I didn't?
00:26:37Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:39You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:41I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:43He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:45It's just a fucking fish tank!
00:26:46Grow up!
00:26:47Remember where in the public eye?
00:26:50What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:52What, everyone knows your precious Preston attacked me?
00:26:55Maybe I should go.
00:26:57I'm sorry.
00:26:58No!
00:26:59Oh, my God!
00:27:01He's lying!
00:27:03You're a monster!
00:27:04And in front of your son?
00:27:06You have to be kidding!
00:27:08We have to get you to the hospital.
00:27:09Yeah.
00:27:10Close it.
00:27:11We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:13Come on.
00:27:14Clean this up!
00:27:16Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:20Huh.
00:27:21She's mine now, loser.
00:27:24Hello, 9-1-1.
00:27:25What's your emergency?
00:27:26I'm bleeding out.
00:27:27I think I hit an artery.
00:27:28I need an ambulance.
00:27:29No.
00:27:30No.
00:27:31No.
00:27:32No.
00:27:33No.
00:27:34No.
00:27:35No.
00:27:36No.
00:27:37No.
00:27:38No.
00:27:39No.
00:27:40No.
00:27:42No.
00:27:43No.
00:27:44No.
00:27:45No.
00:27:49You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump
00:27:54you with liquids.
00:27:55To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:27:58Trouble with the missus?
00:28:01Uh... yeah.
00:28:03Pretty 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!
00:28:13with 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 couple?
00:28:25I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs
00:28:28and it's official.
00:28:30She even helped me reposition Preston
00:28:32when his IV was twisted.
00:28:34She was so sweet.
00:28:39Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:42No, it's, it's an old wound.
00:28:47I tore it actually, um, 10 years ago.
00:28:50Daniel!
00:28:52Sweet and caring.
00:28:54So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:57He only had to break her heart to get it
00:29:00and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:29:07Fuck it.
00:29:09I'm gonna get my shit in y'all.
00:29:12Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:14You once liked my short film.
00:29:15I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:17It needs the right producer.
00:29:23I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:29Where have you been?
00:29:31I kept calling.
00:29:32I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:33Huh?
00:29:34What?
00:29:35I've been busy.
00:29:36I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:37Seriously?
00:29:38Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:39I told you.
00:29:40He's just a friend.
00:29:41Yeah.
00:29:42That's what you want to call it?
00:29:44I...
00:29:45I just...
00:29:46I'm sorry.
00:29:47I...
00:29:48Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:29:51It is what it is.
00:29:52But I mean...
00:29:53You know how the industry works.
00:29:54You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:29:55Then I think you should go for it.
00:29:56I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:29:58I mean, I'm sorry.
00:29:59I'm sorry.
00:30:00I'm sorry.
00:30:01I'm sorry.
00:30:02I'm sorry.
00:30:03I'm sorry.
00:30:04I'm sorry.
00:30:05I'm sorry.
00:30:06I'm sorry.
00:30:07I'm sorry.
00:30:08I'm sorry.
00:30:09I'm sorry.
00:30:10Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:30:11It is what it is.
00:30:12But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:15You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:19Then I think you should go for it.
00:30:21I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:24But...
00:30:25I just...
00:30:26I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:30Seriously.
00:30:32I...
00:30:33I care about you.
00:30:38I'm no man.
00:30:40I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:42I know when you're angry.
00:30:43Really?
00:30:44I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:46I pay attention?
00:30:48Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:50She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:53That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:55A headline.
00:30:56A performance.
00:30:59Sabrina.
00:31:03Sabrina, I'm good.
00:31:04You know what?
00:31:05I hate fighting.
00:31:06So let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:09I was thinking we could revisit your script.
00:31:13I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14Are you telling me you've finally read it?
00:31:15Well, yeah.
00:31:16The first ten pages.
00:31:17But they're good.
00:31:18The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:19I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:20Me and you.
00:31:21The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:22I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:23A long time ago.
00:31:24Well, how about you make us some lattes and for the next hour we can just pour ourselves
00:31:31into the script.
00:31:32Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:33There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:35I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:36Now, I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:38Fine.
00:31:39Fine.
00:31:40Fine.
00:31:41Fine.
00:31:42Fine.
00:31:43Fine.
00:31:44Fine.
00:31:45Fine.
00:31:46I'm good.
00:31:47I'm good.
00:31:48Fine.
00:31:49Fine.
00:31:50Fine.
00:31:51Fine.
00:31:52Well, I'm good.
00:31:53Fine.
00:31:54Fine.
00:31:55Fine.
00:31:56Fine.
00:31:57Fine.
00:31:58Fine.
00:31:59Fine.
00:32:00Fine.
00:32:01Fine.
00:32:02Fine.
00:32:05I 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, and I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:25That's not what I meant.
00:32:28I like it when you make it.
00:32:31I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:35I knew it.
00:32:37You 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.
00:32:55No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:02Look what you made me do.
00:33:03Just leave it.
00:33:08I just thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:11And what?
00:33:12It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:14I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:17And look what I get for it.
00:33:19You know what?
00:33:20Forget it.
00:33:21I have a premiere.
00:33:22Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:33What?
00:33:39Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:41Yeah.
00:33:42Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:42Not quite.
00:33:43That was the divorce contract.
00:33:45But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:50This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:51Remember that.
00:33:52I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:33:54I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:09Oh, please.
00:34:10She's always been so secretive.
00:34:12I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:24Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:27Come here.
00:34:28Oh.
00:34:31Jackson!
00:34:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:35Do you know where she is?
00:34:36Or who she's with?
00:34:38She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:40He's been staying with us.
00:34:41Oh.
00:34:42Really?
00:34:44Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:47Oh, I hope so.
00:34:48I really hope so.
00:34:49He'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.
00:35:05What are you doing here?
00:35:06You never come to these things.
00:35:09Oh, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:10Get lost.
00:35:13You embarrass us.
00:35:14Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:16I'm your father.
00:35:17I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:22Is there a problem?
00:35:23Oh, my God.
00:35:29That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:30How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:34If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:36I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:38You'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.
00:35:46I'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 picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:57That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:01It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:04And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:08This was all a stunt, wasn't it?
00:36:11You were revolting.
00:36:13No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:15Hey.
00:36:15Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:36:19Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:22Yeah.
00:36:23Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:24Oh, yeah?
00:36:25What lesson is that, Preston?
00:36:27You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:31Hmm.
00:36:36Oh!
00:36:45What the hell?
00:36:54What happened?
00:36:56Oh, my God!
00:36:57Daniel!
00:36:59What the hell happened?
00:37:01Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:02Are you okay?
00:37:03Look at her go.
00:37:05Hollywood's finest.
00:37:07Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:10It's Daniel.
00:37:11He's a monster.
00:37:12He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:15Mommy!
00:37:16Dad came in here and started shouting at me!
00:37:19No.
00:37:19No, that's not true.
00:37:21If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:26Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:30Daniel.
00:37:31Is that true?
00:37:34Sabrina.
00:37:37Oh!
00:37:38Yeah, I think he got me in the ribs.
00:37:41I think one of them's broken.
00:37:43Sabrina?
00:37:44Honey?
00:37:44We need to help Preston.
00:37:49But...
00:37:49But Daniel...
00:37:50Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:55Oh, my God.
00:38:06Mommy, please!
00:38:07We can't leave him!
00:38:08I...
00:38:09I...
00:38:09I have...
00:38:11I have to help Preston.
00:38:20I got you.
00:38:26Come on, Jackson.
00:38:28I'm here.
00:38:28Daniel!
00:38:29I got you.
00:38:35Don't let me go!
00:38:38She's made her choice.
00:38:40There's no going back.
00:38:41We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:38:47Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:38:58Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:00I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:02There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:07Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:09In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:12If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:39:16I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:18Don't worry about it.
00:39:33Just drive.
00:39:34I used to ache for her approval.
00:39:50Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:39:54Seriously?
00:39:56So long.
00:39:57What?
00:39:58Yeah.
00:39:58Oh.
00:39:59I'm going to go call the doctor, okay?
00:40:01What are you doing?
00:40:04I thought you were hurt.
00:40:06I think I'll pull through him.
00:40:14Preston, what are you doing?
00:40:16One of us wanted to.
00:40:18Come on.
00:40:19I know you want this.
00:40:20I see the way you look at me.
00:40:21Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:40:25We can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:31What am I doing?
00:40:39Daniel is still injured.
00:40:41He should be home.
00:40:44Sabrina?
00:40:55Preston, get off.
00:40:57What?
00:40:59Babe, we can finally.
00:41:01Come on.
00:41:01I said get off.
00:41:02What?
00:41:03I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:05No, forget about him.
00:41:06Look, I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:11I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:15I mean, come on.
00:41:16Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:41:19Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:21What?
00:41:23Look, he's already moved on.
00:41:25What have I done?
00:41:30Where is he?
00:41:32What about me?
00:41:33You had a chance ten years ago.
00:41:36I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:44Hello?
00:41:45Excuse me.
00:41:47Excuse me.
00:41:48Hi.
00:41:48Have you seen my husband?
00:41:51Please, he was someone bleeding out.
00:41:53I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:57He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:00Oh, no.
00:42:03Daniel, where are you?
00:42:05I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:08Please try again later.
00:42:11What have I done?
00:42:12Come on, Daniel.
00:42:24Answer me.
00:42:30He's not gone.
00:42:32I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:34I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:38He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:42:47No.
00:42:50It's not possible.
00:42:52He will be back.
00:42:55No.
00:42:56No.
00:42:56Boy, it's all assets.
00:43:08Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:11The waves all spousal support.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No, he can't leave me.
00:43:16He can't do this to me.
00:43:18I won't sign off on it.
00:43:19No.
00:43:20No.
00:43:26All this time, he's going to leave me.
00:43:48It can't be.
00:43:51It's not a...
00:43:52Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:43:54My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:56He loves me.
00:43:58He loves Jackson.
00:44:00He wouldn't just leave us.
00:44:02We're his family.
00:44:04After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:44:09Cough.
00:44:24I got you.
00:44:30Don't let me go!
00:44:33Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:39Daniel!
00:44:40No, it's Mom.
00:44:41Is everything okay?
00:44:43You sound panicked.
00:44:43Mom!
00:44:46Mom!
00:44:47Daniel!
00:44:48He just left us!
00:44:51Do you know where he is?
00:44:54We have to find him.
00:44:55We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:57Oh, honey.
00:44:59It's over.
00:45:00Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:03You knew?
00:45:04I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:45:14I'm hungry!
00:45:15I'm hungry!
00:45:16Dad!
00:45:17Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:45:20Jackson?
00:45:21I have something to tell you.
00:45:27Your dad.
00:45:30Your dad.
00:45:32He's left us.
00:45:34I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:36Yay!
00:45:37He's gone!
00:45:37He's gone!
00:45:39Why would you say that?
00:45:41He was so embarrassing!
00:45:43Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:45:44Mr. Eastwood?
00:45:45What did Preston say?
00:45:48He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets than raising a young man.
00:45:54He was so lame and boring.
00:45:56Now he's gone!
00:45:58Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:46:00He can be my new dad!
00:46:02Jackson!
00:46:03You have a dad!
00:46:05And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:46:07Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:15Hello?
00:46:16Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:18Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:20I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:22I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:24Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:46:28Was that done with your approval?
00:46:29No, but I'm not surprised.
00:46:32Flag his name.
00:46:33I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:37Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:46:41Okay?
00:46:42He's not the man you think he is.
00:46:44Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:46:47And we need to find him at all costs.
00:46:50What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:46:54It's despicable.
00:46:55I can't do this anymore.
00:46:57I can cancel everything.
00:47:00The interviews and the red carpets.
00:47:02I don't want to be seen.
00:47:04I can't pretend.
00:47:07I just want him back.
00:47:09Oh, honey.
00:47:11It's time to let him go.
00:47:13You don't love him anyway.
00:47:15And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:21What?
00:47:22How could you say something like that?
00:47:25Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:26He cares for me.
00:47:28He sees me.
00:47:29He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:34But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:47:37Daniel's my husband.
00:47:39And the father of my son.
00:47:41Yeah, some husband.
00:47:42Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:47:44Wanting nothing to do with this child just because the contract ended.
00:47:47Contract?
00:47:48Contract?
00:47:49What contract?
00:47:50What are you talking about?
00:47:57Forget it.
00:47:58Forget it.
00:47:59Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:00When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on
00:48:05a trip.
00:48:06Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:08Please.
00:48:09I just want the truth.
00:48:11Mom.
00:48:11Fine.
00:48:14I will tell you the truth.
00:48:16But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:20I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:48:24But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:30When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:48:33I had to save you.
00:48:35She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:48:37You've always been there for her.
00:48:41From film school to now.
00:48:42I've seen it.
00:48:44She needs you.
00:48:46Stay.
00:48:47Marry her.
00:48:47Love her.
00:48:49So that she's never alone again.
00:48:57It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:01How could you do this to me?
00:49:03I wanted to protect you.
00:49:05You wanted to control me.
00:49:07All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:10Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:15You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:49:19Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:21He kept you together.
00:49:23Where?
00:49:24Where did he go?
00:49:26I know he told you where he went.
00:49:28Where is he?
00:49:29You can do better than him.
00:49:31You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.
00:49:35And believe me, it's for the best.
00:49:37No!
00:49:38He can't be gone!
00:49:39He can't!
00:49:40Yes!
00:49:41He is gone, and he is gone forever!
00:49:44He can't be!
00:49:45He can't be gone!
00:49:46He can't!
00:49:47I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:50:14Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:22Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:26What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:28Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own sheet.
00:50:32Nobody told me how.
00:50:34Oh, man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:50:37I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:50:39Yeah.
00:50:41God, my career has been a long time in the making, and I haven't been very honest about it, actually.
00:50:46I almost gave up the dream.
00:50:47But London, London lit the fire under me, and I feel like I've found my voice, and it really is full steam ahead.
00:50:56Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:03Hollywood.
00:51:05Get out of the country.
00:51:06If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:51:16Daniel?
00:51:31He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:51:34Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius, and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:51:42That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:51:50Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:51:53We'll never tell.
00:51:58Oh, my God, thanks for saving me.
00:52:00She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:02I know, jeez.
00:52:04This is so surreal.
00:52:05I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:52:07I can.
00:52:08The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:52:13Daniel.
00:52:14Enjoy this.
00:52:16And get used to compliments.
00:52:19There's already ask of us.
00:52:20Fuck.
00:52:21Finish me, I know.
00:52:22I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:26You okay?
00:52:27You always do that when you're nervous.
00:52:29I know, it's, um, old habit.
00:52:33Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:52:37Some of us just got a head start.
00:52:38No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:50Matthew.
00:52:51Our price is good price.
00:52:57Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:03He can't do this to me.
00:53:07Sabrina.
00:53:08You don't need him.
00:53:09Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:11How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:14Move on?
00:53:16Please, honey.
00:53:17He is using her.
00:53:19Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:22He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:25How could you say that?
00:53:25I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:53:30He's proving that to the whole world.
00:53:32Don't you see it?
00:53:33Sabrina.
00:53:35Look at what you've got.
00:53:36A celebrated career.
00:53:38A mansion in the hills.
00:53:40An adorable kid.
00:53:42Well, when he's not whining.
00:53:44And don't forget about Preston.
00:53:45Your dream man.
00:53:47You have everything.
00:53:49I don't have him.
00:53:52Mom, I'm hungry.
00:53:53Go have the chef make something.
00:53:54No, I hate what she cooks.
00:53:56And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:58Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:00Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:02He's your dad.
00:54:03No, Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:06Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:09It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:11When did he get so cruel?
00:54:13You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:17A doormat.
00:54:19Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:20Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:22Enough!
00:54:23You little shit!
00:54:24Enough!
00:54:27Just enough!
00:54:28Sabrina?
00:54:29What's gotten into you?
00:54:31Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:54:35Whoa.
00:54:35What's going on here?
00:54:37This room feels really tense.
00:54:39Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:54:41I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:54:43No.
00:54:43I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:54:46And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:54:49It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:54:54Hey, are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:54:59Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:01Really?
00:55:02Loser?
00:55:03Yeah.
00:55:03You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:55:06And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:11That's really, really low.
00:55:17Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:55:23Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:55:25To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:55:28Face it, Preston.
00:55:29You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:55:32And you're a fucking thief.
00:55:35Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:55:37You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:55:39I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:55:42Because you know what?
00:55:43Honestly, I pity you.
00:55:45It's not like that.
00:55:46Okay?
00:55:47Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:55:49I want to marry you.
00:55:51We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:55:54What's my birthday?
00:55:55Huh?
00:55:56What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:58What's my favorite color?
00:55:59My favorite song?
00:56:00Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:03Oh, oh wait.
00:56:04What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:06You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:09You don't love me.
00:56:10You don't even know me.
00:56:12This isn't a relationship.
00:56:14This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:16And you know what?
00:56:17I'm done.
00:56:19Get out.
00:56:20I don't want to ever see you again.
00:56:22We're over.
00:56:23We're over.
00:56:24What?
00:56:25No, babe, babe, come on.
00:56:26Please.
00:56:26Please, I love you.
00:56:27Just think about it.
00:56:29Look at the press.
00:56:30What this will look like.
00:56:31If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:56:36Get out.
00:56:36Babe, just.
00:56:37Now.
00:56:38Just give me your hand.
00:56:39Come on.
00:56:39No.
00:56:40I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:56:44Nobody sees the real me.
00:56:45I see you, Sabrina.
00:56:47I see all of you.
00:56:49And you're never going to be alone again.
00:56:51He truly knew me.
00:56:55He loved me.
00:56:57Every flaw.
00:56:59Every fear.
00:57:01Contract or not.
00:57:03He truly loved me.
00:57:05I saved you from social suicide.
00:57:07Saved me?
00:57:09You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:57:12Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:57:13And he saved me from you.
00:57:17Security!
00:57:19Security!
00:57:20Just let's talk about this.
00:57:22No.
00:57:23Come on.
00:57:23Celeste, do something!
00:57:25Sabrina!
00:57:27Come on, Sabrina!
00:57:28Was that really necessary?
00:57:31I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:57:35Is that all you care about?
00:57:37The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:57:40God, you're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:57:46Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:57:49Of course I care about you.
00:57:51I love you.
00:57:53Then prove it.
00:57:54But if you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:58:11You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:58:13I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:58:15In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:58:20I mean, you know this.
00:58:22You're a legend.
00:58:23I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:58:25All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:58:26You're a powerhouse-sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:58:29I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:58:31I got projects.
00:58:32Come on!
00:58:33You're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets made
00:58:37in L.A., not London.
00:58:39That's where you belong.
00:58:41To be honest, I already did L.A.
00:58:43It didn't really end well.
00:58:45Let me guess.
00:58:46My girl?
00:58:46If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:51You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:55You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:59You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:59:00Three-picture deal.
00:59:01Two-hundred-million-dollar budget each.
00:59:03Creative control and final cut approval.
00:59:05I don't know what to say.
00:59:06Just say yes.
00:59:07You have my number.
00:59:09Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:11Just remember, Daniel.
00:59:12You can't run away from the past.
00:59:14You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:59:16Hey, it's been a while.
00:59:30Can we talk?
00:59:32Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:36Of course.
00:59:37It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:59:41Is this a personal story?
00:59:43Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:47Oh.
00:59:49She knows who she is.
00:59:51Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:59:54Oh, you arrogant little shit.
00:59:58I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
01:00:07It's Celeste Donovan.
01:00:09I need a favor.
01:00:09I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
01:00:16It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:00:20Mom?
01:00:21What are you doing?
01:00:25Did you just break my TV?
01:00:28Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:00:31You know I'm not supposed to do that.
01:00:32You've been so kind, though.
01:00:34Um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
01:00:39He's back.
01:00:41Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:43Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:00:46I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:00:48I need to get on that movie.
01:00:50Absolutely not.
01:00:52You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:54If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:57Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:59He still loves me.
01:01:01He has to.
01:01:04I just need to talk to him.
01:01:06Let him go.
01:01:10Mom.
01:01:12Honey, I...
01:01:13You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:01:17I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:01:21I love you.
01:01:23I love you, too.
01:01:25This is, um...
01:01:31It's another movie deal.
01:01:33I'll tell you about it after.
01:01:34Okay.
01:01:34Did you get his location?
01:01:51The Oaks.
01:01:538 p.m.
01:01:53After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:59He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:01She's not protecting me.
01:02:12She's protecting her business.
01:02:14And I'm just a pawn.
01:02:16But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:02:19It's so nice having you back.
01:02:23And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:02:25Yeah, it's been a rough couple of years, hasn't it?
01:02:27Couple.
01:02:28Daniel, it was ten years of you slaving away for those people.
01:02:32If you can even call them that.
01:02:34But you're healthy now.
01:02:35And I'm at the top of my career.
01:02:37I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina, but I really thought I could make it work.
01:02:42The marriage, the kids.
01:02:43I mean, we really tried.
01:02:46I thought I could make it go for it, but it's over.
01:02:51It's over.
01:02:52I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks Preston Eastwood can offer.
01:03:03Oh.
01:03:04You haven't heard?
01:03:06She dumped him.
01:03:08It was all over People Magazine.
01:03:10She ended it when his star faded.
01:03:11Oh my god, it was.
01:03:20Daniel!
01:03:23Stop!
01:03:31Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:03:33I'm here to help you.
01:03:35Sabrina?
01:03:36You're making a scene.
01:03:38Let's go home.
01:03:39Sabrina?
01:03:39How could you?
01:03:40I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
01:03:45I begged and pleaded.
01:03:46Stop lying.
01:03:48I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:52And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too, to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:03:57My god.
01:03:58You're disgusting.
01:04:00I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:04:01Not anymore.
01:04:02Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:04:07I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:04:10I'm your mother.
01:04:12I only want what's best for you.
01:04:15What's best for me?
01:04:18You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:04:23That all ends today.
01:04:28You're fired.
01:04:30Fired.
01:04:32No.
01:04:35No.
01:04:39No.
01:04:40You can't do this to me.
01:04:42Please.
01:04:43Please, sweetie.
01:04:44I have dedicated my life to you.
01:04:45You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:04:50I was just who you used to get to it.
01:04:53You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:56There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:59I made you.
01:05:01You'd be nothing without me.
01:05:05I think she'll do just fine.
01:05:13We're done here, Mom.
01:05:15If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life, or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:05:22Without another word.
01:05:34I have something to say.
01:05:38I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:40I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:05:43I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:05:48I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:57Apologize to your father.
01:05:59Do I have to?
01:06:01Who raised you?
01:06:03Cared for you?
01:06:06Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:06:08Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:06:13He did.
01:06:15He loved you.
01:06:16But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:06:18I was wrong.
01:06:20Jackson.
01:06:21He gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:06:25And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:06:29I'm sorry, Dad.
01:06:33It's going to be okay, son.
01:06:35I still love you.
01:06:38Come on, Jackson.
01:06:39Let's go.
01:06:45I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:48For everything.
01:06:49Okay.
01:06:49Okay.
01:06:58I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:01You're thinking of going back to them.
01:07:03No.
01:07:05I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:07:07They hurt you, Daniel.
01:07:10They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:07:17People can change.
01:07:19But that doesn't change the past.
01:07:22And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:07:33Daniel!
01:07:33Daniel!
01:07:34Daniel!
01:07:35Come talk to me!
01:07:35Daniel, Daniel!
01:07:36Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the shelf for ten years?
01:07:42Yes.
01:07:43I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:07:48But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:07:50I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:08:01Way to go, John!
01:08:20Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:08:23We'll keep in touch.
01:08:31How many more do we have today?
01:08:32Forty, sir.
01:08:33Jesus.
01:08:34Yay, boy!
01:08:35How are we looking?
01:08:36We're still digging.
01:08:38Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:08:41I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:08:44All right, here's the deal.
01:08:46The studio's on my ass looking to lock and delete today.
01:08:50Today?
01:08:51Are you fucking kidding me?
01:08:52That's why I love you, man.
01:08:53Cool under pressure.
01:08:55This movie is gonna blow the roof off.
01:09:00Oh, my God.
01:09:01All right, just bring in the next one.
01:09:03That would be...
01:09:05Emily Blake.
01:09:07Emily.
01:09:14Emily.
01:09:15Amazing, as always.
01:09:17You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:09:20Please.
01:09:21I wasn't gonna miss a shot who auditioned for the great Daniel Johnson.
01:09:26How's LA treating you?
01:09:28Oh, my God.
01:09:29Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:09:31But I am...
01:09:33I'm glad to be back.
01:09:35Well, it's no English countryside.
01:09:37Yeah.
01:09:37But it suits you.
01:09:40You definitely belong here.
01:09:45I do miss you, though.
01:09:47It was fun.
01:09:48Playing the part.
01:09:50British starlet.
01:09:51American director.
01:09:53I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:58Waiting for us to become something real.
01:10:00I'm sorry, Emily.
01:10:03Just cast me, and we'll call it even.
01:10:06You were amazing, as always.
01:10:09It's just...
01:10:10It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:10:14I never was, was I?
01:10:17Anyways...
01:10:19Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:10:22Maybe I'll see you around.
01:10:24Yeah.
01:10:24Yeah.
01:10:35Get a coffee, and you know what?
01:10:37Go get one for yourself, too.
01:10:41And be generous with the sugar.
01:10:42Oh, my God.
01:10:49What am I going to do?
01:10:56That was quick.
01:10:57What are you doing here?
01:11:10I came to audition.
01:11:14Did you bring any representation?
01:11:16No.
01:11:17I fired my manager, remember?
01:11:19I'm starting fresh.
01:11:22Right, um...
01:11:25Hi.
01:11:27I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:11:31Don't let me go!
01:11:33I got you.
01:11:34I'll never let you go.
01:11:37Are you okay?
01:11:39Yeah.
01:11:39It's an old wound that, um...
01:11:42never really healed.
01:11:43I don't know.
01:11:46I understand.
01:11:50Daniel Johnson.
01:11:53Nice to meet you.
01:11:56Please.
01:12:05Whenever you're ready...
01:12:13You just need to learn something.
01:12:18Thanks, guys.
01:12:19What?
01:12:19Thanks, Brian.
