00:00:00He used to worship.
00:00:02And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:10That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:13Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:17Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:23Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:28Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:36Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:42You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:48Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:52If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing.
00:00:55The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:02I'll always love my son.
00:01:03But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:08You didn't still worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:11That was a long time ago.
00:01:13America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:16All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:19When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:26You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:29She needs that now.
00:01:31Stay. Marry her.
00:01:34Love her.
00:01:36So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:38I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:42And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:45If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:52This was the last one.
00:01:55Mom, Daniel.
00:01:58What's going on?
00:02:03What's going on?
00:02:04Honey!
00:02:05I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:11If the paparazzi catch him next to you, ugh.
00:02:14But I need to go.
00:02:15I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:19Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:24Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.
00:02:28Then I will be free.
00:02:30Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:32Ugh, can it wait?
00:02:34I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:36I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:41I saw Preston was there.
00:02:44I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:02:47I mean, we owe him.
00:02:48Yeah.
00:02:49And then he cheated on you.
00:02:50And I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:53I'm starving.
00:02:54When are we eating?
00:02:55Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:57But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:00No!
00:03:00I want to eat now!
00:03:12Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:03:15He doesn't listen.
00:03:16Daniel, please.
00:03:18I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:23I've got something I need to tell you.
00:03:27I'll make it quick.
00:03:28This isn't easy, but I'm...
00:03:29Ew, what is this?
00:03:32It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:34I don't want healthy food.
00:03:35I want chicken nuggets.
00:03:36Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:03:38You can't have that every day.
00:03:40It's not healthy for you.
00:03:42But I want that.
00:03:43Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:47You suck!
00:03:48I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:50Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:59I waited.
00:04:01I gave it everything I had.
00:04:03But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:06And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:11Enough.
00:04:12Just enough.
00:04:14Enough.
00:04:17I want a divorce.
00:04:21I want a divorce.
00:04:27Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:30Huh?
00:04:32I want a...
00:04:36I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:37Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:39Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:43Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:04:45We'll get you some real food.
00:04:47Seriously.
00:04:53Their only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:56I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:58What is this?
00:05:00Another contract?
00:05:02How big is the role?
00:05:04Who's directing?
00:05:06It's not a...
00:05:06Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:11Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:15I have that red carpet event coming up.
00:05:17And I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:20Pull my weight?
00:05:21Yeah, you get it.
00:05:24Love you.
00:05:26I've devoted myself to this family for 10 long years.
00:05:30If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:33Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:37The movie is Greenland and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:47We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:48I can't.
00:05:50My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:52After all I've sacrificed.
00:05:54My scripts.
00:05:55My career.
00:05:56My future.
00:05:58All pushed aside.
00:06:00At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:03I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:07Hey mom, how you doing?
00:06:08Oh, good dear.
00:06:09I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:14Do you need more?
00:06:15No, no, no, no.
00:06:16You've already done so much.
00:06:18I'm just trying to help.
00:06:20I know.
00:06:21But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:25I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done.
00:06:28But it's time you lived your life.
00:06:32I am, mom.
00:06:34And I promise.
00:06:36Because very soon, everything's going to change.
00:06:42You look wonderful, dear.
00:06:43You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:46Everyone come quick, come quick.
00:06:48I gotta go.
00:06:49Love you.
00:06:53What is it, mom?
00:06:54Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:57Our favorite leading man.
00:06:59Come on.
00:07:00Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:14Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:17All right, cut.
00:07:25That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:27We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:31Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:33I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:37Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:39If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:45We did run from the vara, we're down to theериалist.
00:07:51There we go.
00:07:51Everybodypptbs on this fight.
00:07:54We got her.
00:07:56She said, I need to walk away.
00:07:57What did we do?
00:07:59We can't pie.
00:08:04We're ready.
00:08:06We'll come back again.
00:08:09We'll come back again.
00:08:10We'll come back.
00:08:12You destroyed me, president of the system, and left me.
00:08:34Sabrina, don't!
00:08:36Stay back.
00:08:38I mean it.
00:08:40Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:44Just...
00:08:46Just give me your hand.
00:09:00No!
00:09:02Daniel!
00:09:04I got you.
00:09:05No!
00:09:06Don't let me go!
00:09:08I won't ever let you go.
00:09:14I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:18Nobody sees around me.
00:09:20I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:22I see all of you.
00:09:24And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:09:26Good to see ya!
00:09:28Oh my gosh!
00:09:30How long has it been?
00:09:32Oh, too long!
00:09:33Look at you!
00:09:34Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills!
00:09:38Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:40Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:42Are you kidding?
00:09:44Oh, Daniel, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit.
00:09:46But you don't mind, right?
00:09:48Oh, there he is!
00:09:50The assistant!
00:09:52I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:56How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:02Stop!
00:10:03I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:10Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:13Daniel!
00:10:14Oh.
00:10:15Don't embarrass me.
00:10:16No, it's fine.
00:10:17I'm sorry.
00:10:18Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:10:22He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you think, you know?
00:10:26My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:28He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:30Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:33What are you saying?
00:10:34Huh?
00:10:35Yeah.
00:10:36Sabrina.
00:10:37I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:39It's fine.
00:10:41It's fine.
00:10:42Just relax, okay?
00:10:44Be nice.
00:10:54Some people never change.
00:10:56But once our divorce is finalized,
00:10:58I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:02Yeah.
00:11:03It's nice.
00:11:04But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:11:15Oh, careful.
00:11:16You alright?
00:11:19I'm still starving.
00:11:21Make me some food.
00:11:22Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:25Stew?
00:11:26Ew.
00:11:27What is this?
00:11:28A soup kitchen?
00:11:29I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:32Daniel.
00:11:33If the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:35I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:39Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:42What?
00:11:43For real?
00:11:44Yeah.
00:11:45My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:49Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:51Rich.
00:11:53Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:56I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:01Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:02You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:04You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:05They were so dull.
00:12:06Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:10Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:14So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:12:18My treat.
00:12:20Here we go.
00:12:21What to do?
00:12:22Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:24I don't mind.
00:12:25I'll let you insist.
00:12:26I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:27So...
00:12:28Okay.
00:12:29Oh, and I wouldn't bite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:12:36So, anyways.
00:12:37Come on, Ben.
00:12:38Let's go.
00:12:39That's great.
00:12:40Gotcha.
00:12:41There we go.
00:12:42Thanks.
00:12:43Oh.
00:12:44There's Paps.
00:12:46You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:48Last time.
00:12:49I promise.
00:12:51You're right.
00:12:53It is the last time.
00:12:55You guys?
00:12:56Hi.
00:12:57Jackson.
00:12:58Jackson.
00:12:59Jackson.
00:13:00Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:02Contract sign.
00:13:03It's okay.
00:13:04Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:06I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:08Is there ten years of heartbreak?
00:13:09No.
00:13:10No.
00:13:11No.
00:13:12No.
00:13:13No.
00:13:14No.
00:13:15No.
00:13:16No.
00:13:17No.
00:13:18No.
00:13:19No.
00:13:20No.
00:13:21No.
00:13:22No.
00:13:23No.
00:13:24No.
00:13:25No.
00:13:26No.
00:13:27No.
00:13:28No.
00:13:29You successfully.
00:13:30No.
00:13:31You came home soon.
00:13:32We had a rundown.
00:13:34I was in the background.
00:13:35No.
00:13:36No.
00:13:37No.
00:13:38No.
00:13:39No.
00:13:40No.
00:13:41No.
00:13:42No.
00:13:43No.
00:13:44No.
00:13:45No.
00:13:46No.
00:13:47No, no.
00:13:48No.
00:13:48No.
00:13:50No.
00:13:50No.
00:13:51No.
00:13:52I could scream. I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:56Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:00Oh, gee, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:14:04The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:14:06Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:09Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:11Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:14All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:17Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:25You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:27Your brand?
00:14:28It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:30You get it, right?
00:14:40So, you two are a thing?
00:14:42Well, I...
00:14:43It's okay, babe. We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:47This is so going viral.
00:14:57I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:58It looks like more than dating.
00:15:01Is this your son?
00:15:02I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:05Don't be silly.
00:15:06You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:09That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:10He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:14But Preston is awesome.
00:15:16He's an action spy.
00:15:19I wish he was my dad.
00:15:21My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:24But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with a call girl.
00:15:31It's okay, buddy.
00:15:32Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:34If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:37That is if mom schools it.
00:15:39Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:40Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:43Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:47Come on, let's go to Michelle.
00:15:49Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:07I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:12Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:19Daniel!
00:16:21You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:23On the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:27Daniel, he's here?
00:16:29Did he see us?
00:16:30Is he looking over here?
00:16:31Fuck, that's not good.
00:16:33I was just doing that for Lucy.
00:16:34I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:36Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:37Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:41Who cares about him, mommy?
00:16:43Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:45Jackson, enough.
00:16:48What do I do?
00:16:49Well, that's it then.
00:16:52Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:53You need to leverage your relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:57I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:00You're really good at that.
00:17:02Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:06A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:12I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:17I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:20Daniel loves me.
00:17:21He has to understand.
00:17:22This is Hollywood.
00:17:23It's just part of the job.
00:17:26Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:34Daniel, what is this?
00:17:37I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:39All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:42Are you going somewhere?
00:17:45Honey, oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:47We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:51Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:52A vacation?
00:17:53Final.
00:17:54You're paying attention.
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:57I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:59Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:02What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:03Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:05That's not what I meant.
00:18:06Whoa.
00:18:07Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:09That's fine.
00:18:10Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:18:13Just like any good husband would.
00:18:15Oh, look how you see.
00:18:17Is it me?
00:18:18Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:20I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:22I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:24You know what?
00:18:25Maybe I should go.
00:18:26I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:28No, please stay.
00:18:29I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:33No, you know what?
00:18:34I'll go.
00:18:34And clearly she wants you.
00:18:37I'm going to dance this soon.
00:18:39Daniel, wait.
00:18:39I won't ever let you go.
00:18:43He won't leave.
00:18:44He promised.
00:18:46It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:48We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:50I'm going to go back.
00:18:55Daniel!
00:19:00Let them here.
00:19:02Yeah.
00:19:05Oh, good.
00:19:08You're up.
00:19:10After dinner, we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:19:15It was fun.
00:19:17Don't look at me like that.
00:19:19I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:22Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:26How lucky for him.
00:19:27He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:31Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:34Listen, Matt, I've had every opportunity to sleep with her, and nothing happened.
00:19:40You can trust me.
00:19:43Preston, I think you're not eating the right now.
00:19:47All right.
00:19:50Daniel, seriously, listen, Matt.
00:19:52When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:58I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:20:02Just ignore him.
00:20:03He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:05No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:08Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:11Jealous?
00:20:11My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:16Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:21You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:28That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:34Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:39My God.
00:20:41My God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:46Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:50No, it's not like that.
00:20:52I...
00:20:53What?
00:20:55You know what?
00:20:56Fine.
00:20:59The two look great together.
00:21:01Daniel, I...
00:21:11And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:17I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:32I was never the homemaker.
00:21:36I was never the homemaker.
00:21:39Please, Daniel.
00:21:41I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:57If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:04I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:06Look at her now.
00:22:20Playing house for another man.
00:22:22If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:26There he is.
00:22:45God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:48Man.
00:22:49No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:52Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:53I've got some.
00:22:59What do you need?
00:22:59Oh, oh.
00:23:00Yeah, there you go.
00:23:02I'm not going to need some of this shit, but...
00:23:03I doubt you'll like it.
00:23:05Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:07Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:12Hey, uh...
00:23:14You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:18No.
00:23:19A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:20Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:27It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:40What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:42Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:43I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:47And it's unfair!
00:23:49That's a shame, huh?
00:23:50You know what?
00:23:50Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:52Here we go.
00:23:54Ooh.
00:23:55No!
00:23:57Not to play with them.
00:23:59You never let me do anything!
00:24:02Come on.
00:24:03It's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:05You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:07It's not about the money.
00:24:08It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:11Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:24:14bad examples.
00:24:15Yeah?
00:24:16What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:18You're so annoying!
00:24:21Don't push.
00:24:22I said don't push.
00:24:28Go get a book or something.
00:24:30Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:32He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-server.
00:24:34What the hell is he just showing me?
00:24:40Call it a lesson.
00:24:41I'm teaching a kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:43He's not your kid.
00:24:44I wish I was.
00:24:46I hope Mom buries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:49I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:24:51Ouch.
00:24:52I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:24:54So why don't you make this little vacay yours perfect?
00:24:57Maybe it will be.
00:24:58But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:02You?
00:25:03Man of the house?
00:25:04Please.
00:25:05You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:07I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:11And you're washed apart.
00:25:12Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:14How are your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:16I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:19I'm a fucking star!
00:25:20A star?
00:25:22A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:25Jackson, come on.
00:25:26I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:28No, I'm not going.
00:25:30Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:32Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:25:34You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:01What was that?
00:26:06Daniel!
00:26:10What is happening?
00:26:12It was Dad, Mom!
00:26:13Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!
00:26:15You're so scared!
00:26:17That would be pretty good, baby.
00:26:18What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:20I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:21I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:23What?
00:26:23I didn't.
00:26:24Dude, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:26You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:28I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:30He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:32It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:26:33Grow up!
00:26:34Remember where in the public eye?
00:26:37What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:39What?
00:26:39Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:26:43Maybe I should go on.
00:26:45I'm sorry.
00:26:45No.
00:26:46Oh, my God.
00:26:48He's lying.
00:26:50You're a monster!
00:26:52And in front of your son?
00:26:54You have to be kidding.
00:26:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:57We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:02Clean this up!
00:27:05Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:10She's mine now, loser.
00:27:21Hello, thank my heart.
00:27:22It's your emergency.
00:27:23I'm waiting.
00:27:24I think I hit an artery.
00:27:25I need an ambulance now.
00:27:28Now.
00:27:28You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you
00:27:43with liquid.
00:27:44To be honest, that's...
00:27:46I could use a break from home.
00:27:48Trouble with the missus?
00:27:49Uh, yeah.
00:27:53It's pretty obvious.
00:27:54Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:58I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:28:03With Preston Eastwood.
00:28:05True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:09I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:28:11You said, um, a couple?
00:28:14I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official.
00:28:20She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:24She was so sweet.
00:28:29Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:32No, it's a small wound.
00:28:37I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:41Daniel!
00:28:42Sweet and caring.
00:28:45So Preston's found the wife I always wanted.
00:28:48He only had to break her heart to get it.
00:28:50And left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:56Fuck you!
00:28:58Fuck you!
00:28:59I'm gonna get my shit in y'all.
00:29:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:06You once liked my short film.
00:29:08I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:18It needs the right producer.
00:29:19I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you read it.
00:29:24Where have you been?
00:29:26I kept calling.
00:29:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:31Huh?
00:29:35What?
00:29:35I've been busy.
00:29:36I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:40Seriously?
00:29:41Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:47Yeah.
00:29:48That's what you want to call it?
00:29:49I, I just, I'm sorry.
00:29:54I, bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:30:02It is what it is.
00:30:04But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:08You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:12And I think you should go for it.
00:30:14I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:17But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:24Seriously.
00:30:26I, I care about you.
00:30:28I don't know that.
00:30:34I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:36I know when you're angry.
00:30:37Really?
00:30:38I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:40I pay attention?
00:30:43Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:45She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:48That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:50A headline.
00:30:51A performance.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:58Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:59You know what?
00:31:00I hate fighting.
00:31:02So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:05I was thinking we could revisit your script.
00:31:11I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14You tell me you finally read it?
00:31:16Well, yeah.
00:31:17The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:31:21The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:24I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:25Me and you, the 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,
00:31:39and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:31:43Just 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.
00:31:53Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:55I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:32:15and it was awful.
00:32:18Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you.
00:32:20I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:22That's not what I meant.
00:32:25I like it when you make it.
00:32:28I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:33I knew it.
00:32:35You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:37I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:41It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:46Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:48It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:51No, Daniel.
00:32:53No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:00Look what you made me do.
00:33:04Just leave it.
00:33:06I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:10And what?
00:33:10It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:12I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:15And look what I get for it.
00:33:17You know what?
00:33:18Forget it.
00:33:19I have a mirror.
00:33:20Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:22What?
00:33:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:40Yeah.
00:33:41Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:41Not quite.
00:33:42That was the divorce contract.
00:33:44But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:49This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:50Remember that.
00:33:51I'll text you the address of where it may be.
00:34:04I 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.
00:34:28Come here.
00:34:28Oh.
00:34:32Jackson!
00:34:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:36Do you know where she is?
00:34:37Or who she's with?
00:34:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:40He's been staying with us.
00:34:43Really?
00:34:45Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:48Oh, I hope so.
00:34:49I really hope so.
00:34:50He's way cooler than my old-born real dad.
00:34:54Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:57Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:00What are you doing here?
00:35:08You never come to these things.
00:35:10Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:13Get lost.
00:35:14You embarrass us.
00:35:16Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:18I'm your father.
00:35:19I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:21Is there a problem?
00:35:30Oh, my God.
00:35:31That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:33How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:36If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:39I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:41You're a pathetic loser.
00:35:42Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:44You should probably listen to your kid and pat out because you're starting to make a scene.
00:35:49I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:51That's not what I see.
00:35:53You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and pit a fight with an A-lister.
00:36:00That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:05It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:07And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:12This was all I stopped, was it?
00:36:14You were revolting.
00:36:16No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:20Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:36:22Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:26Yeah.
00:36:27Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:28Oh, yeah?
00:36:29What lesson's that, Preston?
00:36:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:35Hmm.
00:36:39Oh!
00:36:57The hell?
00:36:59What happened?
00:37:01Oh, my God!
00:37:02Daniel!
00:37:04What the hell happened?
00:37:06Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:07Are you okay?
00:37:08Look at her go.
00:37:10Hollywood's finest.
00:37:12Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:15It's Daniel.
00:37:16He's a monster.
00:37:17He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:20Mommy!
00:37:21Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:24No, no, no, that's not true.
00:37:26If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:32Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:35Daniel, is that true?
00:37:38Sabrina.
00:37:39Oh, yeah, I think he got me in the ribs.
00:37:47I think one of them is broken.
00:37:49Sabrina?
00:37:50Honey?
00:37:51We need to help Preston.
00:37:52But, but Daniel.
00:37:58Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:38:02Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:38:16I, I have, I have to help Preston.
00:38:25Yeah.
00:38:26I got you.
00:38:44Don't let me go.
00:38:46She's made her choice.
00:38:48There's no going back.
00:38:49We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:38:56Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:39:06Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:09I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:11There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:16Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:18In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:20If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:27Don't worry about it.
00:39:42Just dry.
00:39:43I used to take for her approval.
00:40:00Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:40:04Seriously?
00:40:06Stay down.
00:40:07What the fuck?
00:40:08Damn.
00:40:08Oh.
00:40:09Come on, we'll call the doctor.
00:40:11Hey.
00:40:14What are you doing?
00:40:15I thought you were hurt.
00:40:16I think I'll pull through.
00:40:25Preston, what are you doing?
00:40:26I've always wanted to.
00:40:29Come on.
00:40:29I know you want this.
00:40:30I see the way you look at me.
00:40:32Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:40:36I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:48What am I doing?
00:40:50Daniel is still injured.
00:40:52He should be home.
00:40:56Sabrina?
00:40:57Sabrina?
00:41:02Listen, get off.
00:41:10What?
00:41:11Hey, we can finally.
00:41:13I said get off.
00:41:14What?
00:41:15I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:17No, forget about him.
00:41:18Look.
00:41:19I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:24I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:28I mean, come on.
00:41:28Sabrina, your son, your mother, even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:34What?
00:41:35Look.
00:41:36He's already moved on.
00:41:40No.
00:41:41What have I done?
00:41:43Where is he?
00:41:45What about me?
00:41:46You had your chance 10 years ago.
00:41:49I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:57Hello?
00:41:59Excuse me.
00:42:00Excuse me.
00:42:01Hi.
00:42:02Have you seen my husband?
00:42:04Please.
00:42:05He was someone bleeding out.
00:42:06I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:42:11He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:12Oh, no.
00:42:16God, Daniel, where are you?
00:42:18I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:22Please try again later.
00:42:24What have I done?
00:42:26Come on, Daniel.
00:42:38Answer me.
00:42:39Come on, Daniel.
00:42:39Answer me.
00:42:45He's not gone.
00:42:46I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:57He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:43:01It's not possible.
00:43:07He will be back.
00:43:11No.
00:43:11I will.
00:43:11Wait, it's all the assets.
00:43:24Climb zero, Garcia, Jackson.
00:43:27The waves all spousal support.
00:43:28No, no, he can't leave me.
00:43:32He can't do this to me.
00:43:34I won't sign off on him.
00:43:45No.
00:43:47All this time, he's going to leave me.
00:43:50No.
00:43:50No.
00:43:50No.
00:43:51No.
00:43:51No.
00:43:52No.
00:43:53No.
00:43:53No.
00:43:54No.
00:43:55No.
00:43:55No.
00:43:56No.
00:43:57No.
00:43:58It can't be.
00:44:08It's not us.
00:44:09Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:44:11My mom will look it over anyways.
00:44:13He loves me.
00:44:15He loves Jackson.
00:44:17He wouldn't just leave us.
00:44:19We're his family.
00:44:20And after all these years, everything we've been through.
00:44:24I got you.
00:44:38I got you.
00:44:48Don't let me go!
00:44:51Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:57Daniel!
00:44:58No, it's Mom. Is everything okay?
00:45:01Mom!
00:45:04Mom!
00:45:04Mom, Daniel, he just left us.
00:45:10Do you know where he is?
00:45:12We have to find him. We can check the hospital or the...
00:45:16Oh, honey. It's over.
00:45:19Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:21You knew?
00:45:22I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:45:25I'm hungry!
00:45:35Dad! Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:45:39Taxi?
00:45:40I have something to tell you.
00:45:46Your dad...
00:45:48Your dad...
00:45:51He's left us.
00:45:53I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:56Yay! He's gone! He's gone!
00:45:58Why would you say that?
00:46:01He was so embarrassing!
00:46:02Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:46:04Mr. Eastwood?
00:46:06What did Preston say?
00:46:07He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:46:09should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:46:11than raising a young man.
00:46:14He was so lame and boring.
00:46:17Now he's gone!
00:46:18Mr. Eastwood is way cooler!
00:46:21He can be my new dad!
00:46:22Jackson!
00:46:24You have a dad!
00:46:25And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:46:28Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:36Hello?
00:46:37Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:39Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:41I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:43I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:45Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:46:49Was that done with your approval?
00:46:50No, but I'm not surprised.
00:46:53Flag his name.
00:46:54I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:58Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:47:02Okay?
00:47:03He's not the man you think he is.
00:47:05Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you,
00:47:08is out there,
00:47:09and we need to find him at all costs.
00:47:12What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:47:16It's despicable.
00:47:17I can't do this anymore.
00:47:20I'll cancel everything.
00:47:22The interviews and the red carpets.
00:47:24I don't want to be seen.
00:47:27I can't pretend.
00:47:29I just want him back.
00:47:32Honey,
00:47:33it's time to let him go.
00:47:35You don't love him anyway.
00:47:38Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:41What?
00:47:45How could you say something like that?
00:47:47Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:50He cares for me.
00:47:51He sees me.
00:47:52He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:57But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:47:59Daniel's my husband.
00:48:02And the father of my son.
00:48:04Yeah,
00:48:04some husband.
00:48:06Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:48:07Wanting nothing to do with his child just because I contraended.
00:48:11Contract?
00:48:13What contract?
00:48:14What are you talking about?
00:48:20Forget it.
00:48:21Forget it.
00:48:23Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:24When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day,
00:48:28you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:30Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:32Please.
00:48:33I just want the truth.
00:48:35Mom.
00:48:36Fine.
00:48:39I will tell you the truth.
00:48:41But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:45I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:48:49But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:55When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:48:58I had to save you.
00:49:00She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:49:04You've always been there for her.
00:49:06From film school to now.
00:49:08I've seen it.
00:49:09She needs you.
00:49:11Stay.
00:49:12Marry her.
00:49:13Love her.
00:49:14So that she's never alone again.
00:49:22It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:26How could you do this to me?
00:49:29I wanted to protect you.
00:49:31You wanted to control me.
00:49:32All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:36Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:42You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:49:46Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:48He kept you together.
00:49:49Where?
00:49:51Where did he go?
00:49:52I know he told you where he went.
00:49:55Where is he?
00:49:56You can do better than him.
00:49:58You are Sabrina Donovan.
00:50:00Hollywood starlet.
00:50:02Believe me, it's for the best.
00:50:04No.
00:50:05He can't be gone.
00:50:06He can't.
00:50:07Yes.
00:50:08He is gone.
00:50:09And he is gone forever.
00:50:11He can't be.
00:50:12He can't be gone.
00:50:13I can't.
00:50:21I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of how the team is a silver box that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:50:37Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:51Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:55What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:56Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own seat.
00:51:01Nobody told me how.
00:51:03Oh, man.
00:51:03How comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:05I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:08Yeah.
00:51:10God, my career has been a long time in the making.
00:51:12And I haven't been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:15I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:17But London?
00:51:19London lit the fire under me.
00:51:21And I feel like I found my voice.
00:51:22And it really is.
00:51:24Full steam ahead.
00:51:25Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:33Hollywood.
00:51:35Get out of the country.
00:51:37If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, that will make your life a living hell.
00:51:46Daniel?
00:51:47Daniel?
00:51:55He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:52:05Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius.
00:52:09And it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:52:12That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:52:20Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:52:24We'll never tell.
00:52:29Oh my god, thanks for saying that.
00:52:31She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:33I know.
00:52:34She's...
00:52:34This is so surreal.
00:52:36I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:52:38I can.
00:52:39Daniel, the moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:52:44Daniel, enjoy this.
00:52:48And get used to compliments.
00:52:50There's already asked of us.
00:52:52Fuck.
00:52:53Finish me out of it.
00:52:54I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:58You okay?
00:52:59You always do that when you're nervous.
00:53:01I don't know if it's, um...
00:53:03I'll have it.
00:53:04Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:53:09So, let's just go ahead and start.
00:53:22I don't know.
00:53:24Our press is good press.
00:53:30Daniel becomes an award-winning director,
00:53:33and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:36He can't do this to me!
00:53:40Sabrina.
00:53:41You don't need him.
00:53:43Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:44How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:47Move on?
00:53:49Please, honey.
00:53:50He is using her.
00:53:53Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:56He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:58How could you say that?
00:53:59I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:54:04He's proving that to the whole world!
00:54:06Don't you see it?
00:54:07Sabrina.
00:54:09Look at what you've got.
00:54:10A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills,
00:54:14an adorable kid.
00:54:16Well, when he's not whining.
00:54:18And don't forget about Preston.
00:54:20Your dream man.
00:54:21You have everything.
00:54:23I don't have him.
00:54:26Mom, I'm hungry.
00:54:27Go have the chef make something.
00:54:29No, I hate what she cooks.
00:54:31And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:54:33Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:35Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:36He's your dad.
00:54:38No!
00:54:38Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:40Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:44It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:46When did he get so cruel?
00:54:48You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:52A doormat.
00:54:52Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:55Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Enough!
00:54:58You little shit!
00:55:01Enough!
00:55:02Just enough!
00:55:04Sabrina?
00:55:05What's gotten into you?
00:55:07Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:55:10Whoa.
00:55:12What's going on here?
00:55:13This room feels really tense.
00:55:15Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:55:17I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:55:19No!
00:55:19I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:55:22And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:55:25It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:55:32Hey, babe.
00:55:34Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:38Really?
00:55:38Loser?
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:55:43And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:52That's really, really low.
00:55:54Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing
00:55:58in the last year.
00:56:00Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:56:02To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:56:05Face it, Preston.
00:56:06You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:56:10And you're a fucking thief.
00:56:12Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:56:14You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:56:17I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:56:20Because you know what?
00:56:21Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:23It's not like that, okay?
00:56:25Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:56:28I want to marry you.
00:56:29We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:32What's my birthday?
00:56:33Huh?
00:56:34What kind of flowers do I like?
00:56:36What's my favorite color?
00:56:37My favorite song?
00:56:38Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:41Oh, oh, wait.
00:56:42What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:44You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:47You don't love me.
00:56:48You don't even know me.
00:56:50This isn't a relationship.
00:56:52This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:55And you know what?
00:56:56I'm done.
00:56:57Get out.
00:56:58I don't want to ever see you again.
00:57:01We're over.
00:57:02We're over.
00:57:04No, babe, babe, come on.
00:57:05Please, please, I love you.
00:57:06Just think about it.
00:57:08Look at the press.
00:57:09What this will look like.
00:57:11If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:57:15Get out.
00:57:16Hey, just...
00:57:16Now.
00:57:18Just give me your hand.
00:57:19Come on.
00:57:19No.
00:57:20I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:57:23Nobody sees the real people.
00:57:25I see you, Sabrina.
00:57:26I see all of you.
00:57:29And you're never...
00:57:30He truly loved me.
00:57:34Is that all you care about?
00:57:43You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:57:45I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:48In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:53I mean, you know this.
00:57:55You're a legend.
00:57:56I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:58All right.
00:57:58Let me cut to the chase.
00:57:59You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:58:02I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:58:04I got projects.
00:58:05Come on.
00:58:06You're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets
00:58:10made in L.A., not London.
00:58:12That's where you belong.
00:58:14To be honest, I already did L.A.
00:58:17It didn't really end well.
00:58:18Let me guess.
00:58:19My girl?
00:58:20If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:25You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:29You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:33You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:34Three-picture deal.
00:58:35Two hundred million dollar budget each.
00:58:37Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:39I don't know what to say.
00:58:40Just say yes.
00:58:41You have my number.
00:58:43Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:45Just remember, Daniel.
00:58:47You can't run away from the past.
00:58:48You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:59:02Hey, it's been a while.
00:59:05Can we talk?
00:59:07Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:11Of course.
00:59:11It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:59:16Is this a personal story?
00:59:18Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:22Oh, she knows who she is.
00:59:26Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:59:31You arrogant little shit.
00:59:33I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:38It's Les Donovan.
00:59:44I need a favor.
00:59:46I need you to track down Daniel Johnson to find out where he'll be around eight o'clock tonight.
00:59:50It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:56Mom?
00:59:57What are you doing?
00:59:58Did you just break my TV?
01:00:04Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:00:07You know how I'm supposed to do that?
01:00:09You've been so kind, though.
01:00:10Um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
01:00:16He's back.
01:00:18Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:20Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:00:23I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:00:25I need to get on that movie.
01:00:27Absolutely not.
01:00:29You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:31If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:34Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:36He still loves me.
01:00:38He has to.
01:00:41I just need to talk to him.
01:00:44Let him go.
01:00:47Mom.
01:00:49Honey, I...
01:00:51You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:00:55I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:00:59I love you.
01:01:02I love you, too.
01:01:05Here we go.
01:01:06This is, um...
01:01:09It's another movie deal.
01:01:11I'll tell you about it after.
01:01:12Did you get his location?
01:01:30The Oaks.
01:01:318 p.m.
01:01:33After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:38He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:01:40She's not protecting me.
01:01:52She's protecting her business.
01:01:54And I'm just a pawn.
01:01:56But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:01:58It's so nice having you back.
01:02:02And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:02:04Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
01:02:06A couple?
01:02:08Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people.
01:02:12If you can even call them that.
01:02:14You're healthy now.
01:02:15And I'm at the top of my career.
01:02:16I mean, yeah, there was a time that I love Sabrina, but I really thought I could make it work.
01:02:22The marriage, the kids.
01:02:24I mean, we really tried.
01:02:26I thought I could make it go for it, but, um...
01:02:29It's over.
01:02:31It's over.
01:02:32I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks Preston Eastwood could offer.
01:02:36Oh, you haven't heard?
01:02:47She dumped him.
01:02:49It was all over People Magazine.
01:02:51She ended it when his star faded.
01:02:54Oh my gosh, it was.
01:03:01Daniel!
01:03:05Stop!
01:03:06Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:03:15I'm here to help you.
01:03:17Sabrina, we are making a scene.
01:03:20Let's go home.
01:03:21Sabrina?
01:03:21How could you?
01:03:22What?
01:03:23I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
01:03:27I begged and pleaded.
01:03:28Stop lying.
01:03:30I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:34And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too, to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:03:40My God.
01:03:41You're disgusting.
01:03:42I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:44Not anymore.
01:03:45Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:03:50I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:03:52I'm your mother.
01:03:55I only want what's best for you.
01:03:58What's best for me?
01:04:01You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:04:06And that all ends today.
01:04:11You're fired.
01:04:13You're fired.
01:04:15No.
01:04:18No.
01:04:23No.
01:04:24You can't do this to me.
01:04:26Please.
01:04:27Please, sweetie.
01:04:28I have dedicated my life to you.
01:04:29You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:04:33I was just who you used to get to it.
01:04:37You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:40There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:44I made you.
01:04:45You'd be nothing without me.
01:04:50I think she'll do just fine.
01:04:52We're done here, Mom.
01:05:00If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:05:07Without another word.
01:05:08I have something to say.
01:05:23I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:26I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:05:29I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:05:33I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:43Apologize to your father.
01:05:45Do I have to?
01:05:47Who raised you?
01:05:50Cared for you?
01:05:52Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:05:55Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:06:00He did.
01:06:01He loved you.
01:06:02But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:06:05I was wrong.
01:06:06Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:06:11And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:06:16I'm sorry, Dad.
01:06:20It's going to be okay, son.
01:06:22I love you.
01:06:24Okay.
01:06:25Come on, Jackson.
01:06:26Let's go.
01:06:26Let's go.
01:06:32I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:36For everything.
01:06:41I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:48You're thinking of going back to them.
01:06:50I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:06:55They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:58They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:07:05People can change.
01:07:08But that doesn't change the past.
01:07:10And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:07:22Daniel!
01:07:22Daniel!
01:07:23Daniel!
01:07:23I'm here, Daniel.
01:07:25Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:07:30Yes.
01:07:31I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:07:37But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:07:41I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:07:51Way to go, John!
01:08:01Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:08:13We'll keep in touch.
01:08:21What do we have today?
01:08:22Forty.
01:08:23Sorry.
01:08:23Jeez.
01:08:24Hey, boy!
01:08:25How are we looking?
01:08:27Still digging?
01:08:29No one's cracked the lead yet.
01:08:30I mean, this film lives or dies by a female lead.
01:08:35All right, here's the deal.
01:08:36The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:08:40Today?
01:08:41Are you fucking kidding me?
01:08:43That's why I love you, man.
01:08:44Cool under pressure.
01:08:45This movie is gonna blow the roof off.
01:08:51Oh, my God.
01:08:52All right, just bring in the next one.
01:08:54So that would be...
01:08:56Emily Blake.
01:09:00Emily.
01:09:05Emily.
01:09:06Amazing, as always.
01:09:09You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:09:12Please.
01:09:13I wasn't gonna miss a shot to be auditioned for the great Daniel Johnson.
01:09:16So...
01:09:16How's L.A. treating you?
01:09:19Oh, my God.
01:09:21Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:09:23But I am...
01:09:25I'm glad to be back.
01:09:27Well, it's not even this countryside.
01:09:29Yeah.
01:09:29But it suits you.
01:09:33You definitely belong here.
01:09:36I do miss you, though.
01:09:39It was fun.
01:09:40Playing the part.
01:09:42British starlet.
01:09:44American director.
01:09:46I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:50Waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:53I'm sorry, Emily.
01:09:54You just cast me, and we'll call it even.
01:09:59You...
01:09:59You were amazing, as always.
01:10:02It's just...
01:10:03It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:10:08I never was, was I?
01:10:11Anyways...
01:10:12Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:10:15Maybe I'll see you around?
01:10:17Yeah.
01:10:17Okay.
01:10:17Okay.
01:10:17Okay.
01:10:17Okay.
01:10:17Okay.
01:10:18Okay.
01:10:18Okay.
01:10:18Okay.
01:10:18Okay.
01:10:18Okay.
01:10:19Okay.
01:10:19Okay.
01:10:20Okay.
01:10:20Okay.
01:10:21Okay.
01:10:21Okay.
01:10:22Okay.
01:10:23Okay.
01:10:23Okay.
01:10:24Okay.
01:10:24Give me a copy, and you know what?
01:10:31Go get one for yourself, too.
01:10:34And be generous with the sugar.
01:10:42Oh, my God.
01:10:43What am I going to do?
01:10:51That was quick.
01:10:52What are you doing here?
01:11:05I came to audition.
01:11:09Did you bring any representation?
01:11:10No.
01:11:12I fired my manager, remember?
01:11:14You're a fucking weapon.
01:11:18Don't let me go.
01:11:19I got you.
01:11:21I'll never let you go.
01:11:25Are you okay?
01:11:26Yeah.
01:11:26It's an old wound that, um...
01:11:29Never really healed.
01:11:33I understand.
01:11:33Daniel Johnson, nice to meet you.
01:11:43Please.
01:11:44Whenever you're ready.
01:12:03Please.
01:12:15Please.
01:12:19Please.
01:12:23Please.
01:12:53Please.
01:13:09Please.
