00:08:48No!
00:08:49Don't let me go!
00:08:51I won't ever let you go.
00:08:57I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:01Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:02I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:04I see all of you.
00:09:07And you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:11Good to see you.
00:09:18Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:09:19Oh, too long.
00:09:20Look at you!
00:09:22Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:25Oh my God, of course, babe.
00:09:26Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:28Are you kidding?
00:09:29Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:33Oh, there he is!
00:09:35The assistant!
00:09:35I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:39God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:44Stop!
00:09:45I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:51Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:55Daniel!
00:09:55Oh.
00:09:56Don't embarrass me.
00:09:57No, it's fine.
00:09:58Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:10:03He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you think, you know?
00:10:07My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:09He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:11Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:14What are you saying, huh?
00:10:15Yeah.
00:10:16Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:20That's fine.
00:10:21That's fine.
00:10:23Just relax, okay?
00:10:25Be nice.
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:26Be nice.
00:10:28Be nice.
00:10:28Be nice.
00:10:28Be nice.
00:10:30Be nice.
00:10:30Be nice.
00:10:30Be nice.
00:10:30Be nice.
00:10:31Be nice.
00:10:32Be nice.
00:10:33Some people never change.
00:10:36But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart
00:10:41again.
00:10:42Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:44But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:10:54Oh, careful.
00:10:56You all right?
00:10:59I'm still starving.
00:11:01Make me some food.
00:11:02Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:05Stew?
00:11:05Ew.
00:11:06What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:08I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:11Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:14I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:18Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:19Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:21What?
00:11:22What?
00:11:23For real?
00:11:24Yeah.
00:11:25My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:28Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:30I'm rich.
00:11:32Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:35I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:39See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:40You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:43I didn't realize that's why no one bought your scripts, they were so dull.
00:11:45Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:11:48Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:11:53So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:11:56My treat.
00:11:57Here we go.
00:11:58What?
00:11:59What?
00:12:00Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:02I don't mind.
00:12:03All of you insist.
00:12:04I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:05Okay.
00:12:06Oh.
00:12:07So...
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:09Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so...
00:12:14Anyways.
00:12:15Come on, Ben.
00:12:16Let's go.
00:12:17Oops.
00:12:18Great.
00:12:19Gotcha.
00:12:20There we go.
00:12:21Oh.
00:12:22There's Paps.
00:12:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:26Last time.
00:12:27I promise.
00:12:28Yes.
00:12:29You're right.
00:12:30It is the last time.
00:12:33Hey, guys.
00:12:34Hi.
00:12:35Jackson.
00:12:36Jackson.
00:12:37Jackson.
00:12:38Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:12:47Contract's fine.
00:12:49It's over.
00:12:51Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:55I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:58After ten years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:02Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:03She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:09Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:10I could scream.
00:13:11I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:12Preston Eastwood.
00:13:13I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:13:14OMG, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:13:15A scene that I wrote.
00:13:16Uncredited, of course.
00:13:17Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:18But wait.
00:13:19Are you two dating?
00:13:20Oh, well.
00:13:21Actually, I'm sorry.
00:13:22I'm sorry.
00:13:23O And again, I just let you go.
00:13:24The two of you are.
00:13:25What and then?
00:13:26I'm sorry.
00:13:27I miss them.
00:13:28I know I love it.
00:13:29I know.
00:13:30The two of you, who are you.
00:13:31I know I am.
00:13:32I don't know, I'll tell you.
00:13:33I know.
00:13:34I don't know I'm sorry.
00:13:35I don't know.
00:13:36I know.
00:13:37I'm sorry.
00:13:38You guys kiss at the hockey rink?
00:13:39A scene that I wrote, uncredited of course.
00:13:42Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:44Wait, are you two dating?
00:13:46Oh, well actually, this is totally a date.
00:13:50All these years, I couldn't even be seen
00:13:52with her in public.
00:13:57Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:00You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:02Your brand?
00:14:03It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:06You get it, right?
00:14:08So, you two are a thing?
00:14:16Well, I...
00:14:17It's okay babe, we don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:30This is so going viral.
00:14:31I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:33It looks like more than dating.
00:14:35Is this your son?
00:14:36I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:14:39Don't be silly.
00:14:40You have a dad and he's a sissy.
00:14:43That's what all the boys at school say.
00:14:45He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:14:47But Preston is awesome.
00:14:51He's an action spy.
00:14:52I wish he was my dad.
00:14:54My own son doesn't respect me, but we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when
00:15:00he comes home coked out from a Hollywood after party with a call girl.
00:15:04It's okay, buddy.
00:15:05Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:07If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:10That is if mom's school with it.
00:15:12Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:14Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:16Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:18Come on, let's get Michelle.
00:15:22Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:15:40I told you this divorce was a mistake, Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with
00:15:51nothing.
00:15:52Daniel!
00:15:53You know, it's probably for the best.
00:15:55From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:15:59Daniel, he's here?
00:16:00He...
00:16:01Did he see us?
00:16:02Is he looking over here?
00:16:03Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:16:04I was just doing that for publicity.
00:16:06I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:08Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:09Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:13Who cares about him, mommy?
00:16:15Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:17Jackson, enough.
00:16:20What do I do?
00:16:21Well, that's it then.
00:16:23Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:25I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:28I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:16:31You're really good at that.
00:16:33Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:16:37A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:16:43I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:16:48I will come after you with everything I got.
00:16:51Daniel loves me.
00:16:52He has to understand.
00:16:53This is Hollywood.
00:16:54It's just part of the job.
00:16:57Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:00Daniel, what is this?
00:17:05I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:09All it takes is one article to get her cancelled.
00:17:12Are you going somewhere?
00:17:14Honey!
00:17:15Oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:17We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:20Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:22A vacation?
00:17:23Finally.
00:17:24You're paying attention.
00:17:26Yeah.
00:17:27I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:29Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:17:31What are we supposed to do without you?
00:17:33Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:17:34That's not what I meant.
00:17:35Whoa.
00:17:36Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:17:38That's fine.
00:17:39Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:17:42Just like any good husband would.
00:17:44Oh, I see.
00:17:46Is it me?
00:17:47Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:17:49I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:17:51I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:17:53You know what?
00:17:54Maybe I should go.
00:17:55I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:17:57No, please stay.
00:17:58I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:01No, you know what?
00:18:03I'll go.
00:18:04And clearly she wants you.
00:18:06I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:18:07Daniel, wait.
00:18:10I won't ever let you go.
00:18:12He won't leave.
00:18:13He promised.
00:18:15It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:17We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:20I'm gonna go back.
00:18:24Daniel!
00:18:28Please.
00:18:29Better than yours.
00:18:30Yes.
00:18:31Yeah.
00:18:32Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:18:34Oh!
00:18:36Oh, good.
00:18:37You're up.
00:18:38Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:18:43It's fun.
00:18:45Why don't look at me like that?
00:18:46I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:18:49Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:18:53How lucky for him.
00:18:55He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:18:58Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:01Okay.
00:19:02Listen, man.
00:19:03I...
00:19:04I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:07You can trust me.
00:19:10Preston, I think you're...
00:19:12Mm-hmm.
00:19:13You need to go right now.
00:19:14All right.
00:19:16Oh, hey.
00:19:17Daniel, seriously.
00:19:18Listen, man.
00:19:19I...
00:19:20I...
00:19:21When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:25I...
00:19:26I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:19:29Just ignore him.
00:19:30He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:19:32No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:19:35Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:19:37Jealous?
00:19:39My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:19:42Whatever.
00:19:43I'm going to bed.
00:19:47You know...
00:19:49I don't think I should be alone.
00:19:54That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:00Daniel...
00:20:01Can Preston sleep in here tonight so I could look after him?
00:20:05My God.
00:20:06My God.
00:20:07My God.
00:20:08You're unbelievable.
00:20:12Are you really gonna ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:16No, it's not like that.
00:20:17I...
00:20:19What?
00:20:21You know what?
00:20:22Fine.
00:20:24You two look great together.
00:20:26Daniel, I...
00:20:36And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:20:46Um...
00:20:50I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:20:54Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:20:57I was never the homemaker.
00:21:03Please, Daniel.
00:21:05I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:20If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:21:22I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:21:25Look at her now.
00:21:26Playing house for another man.
00:21:28If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:21:32There we go.
00:21:33There we go.
00:22:02Hey!
00:22:06There he is!
00:22:08God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:10Man.
00:22:11No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:14Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:18Got some.
00:22:20Yeah.
00:22:21What do you need?
00:22:22Oh.
00:22:23Oh.
00:22:24Yeah, there you go.
00:22:25I'd offer you some of this shit, but...
00:22:26I doubt you'd like it.
00:22:27Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:22:29Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:22:32Hey, uh...
00:22:35You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:22:39No.
00:22:40A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:22:43Why would I be threatened by that?
00:22:48It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:22:51What's wrong, Jackson?
00:22:52Mr. Eastwood!
00:22:53I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:22:54And it's unfair!

00:28:20i have a script i've been sitting on

00:40:43I need to go take care of my husband.
00:40:51Hello?
00:40:52Excuse me.
00:40:54Excuse me.
00:40:55Hi.
00:40:55Have you seen my husband?
00:40:58Please, he was the one bleeding out.
00:41:00I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:04He didn't come back in, though.
00:41:06Oh, no.
00:41:09Come on, Daniel.
00:41:10Where are you?
00:41:12I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:41:16Please try again later.
00:41:17What have I done?
00:41:18What have I done?
00:41:29Come on, Daniel.
00:41:31Answer me.
00:41:37He's not gone.
00:41:39He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:41:54No.
00:41:57It's not possible.
00:41:59He will be back.
00:42:01No.
00:42:01Boy, it's all assets.
00:42:16Claims zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:42:18The waves all spousal support.
00:42:21No.
00:42:22No, he can't leave me.
00:42:24He can't do this to me.
00:42:25I won't sign off on it.
00:42:36No.
00:42:38All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:42:51No.
00:42:55It can't be.
00:42:59It's not us.
00:43:00Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:43:01My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:03He loves me.
00:43:06He loves Jackson.
00:43:08He wouldn't just leave us.
00:43:10We're his family.
00:43:11After all these years, everything we've been through.
00:43:25I got you.
00:43:38Don't let me go!
00:43:40Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:46Daniel?
00:43:47No, it's Mom.
00:43:49Is everything okay?
00:43:50You sound panicked.
00:43:51Mom!
00:43:53Mom!
00:43:54Daniel, he just left us.

00:44:05Oh, honey.
00:44:06It's over.
00:44:08Daniel's not coming back.
00:44:10You knew?
00:44:11I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:44:14I'm hungry!
00:44:24Dad!
00:44:25Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:44:28Jackson?
00:44:29I have something to tell you.
00:44:34Your dad.
00:44:37Your dad.
00:44:40He's left us.
00:44:42I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:44:44Yay!
00:44:45He's gone!
00:44:45He's gone!
00:44:46I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:44:47Why would you say that?
00:44:49He was so embarrassing.
00:44:50Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:44:52Mr. Eastwood?
00:44:54What did Preston say?
00:44:55He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man.
00:45:02He was so lame and boring.
00:45:04Now he's gone.
00:45:06Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:45:08He can be my new dad.
00:45:10Jackson, you have a dad, and he's cared for you for seven years.
00:45:15Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:23Hello?
00:45:24Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:45:26Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:45:28I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:45:30I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:45:32Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:45:36Was that done with your approval?
00:45:37No, but I'm not surprised.
00:45:40Flag his name.
00:45:41I want him frozen and cut off.
00:45:45Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:45:49Okay?
00:45:50He's not the man you think he is.
00:45:52Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:45:56And we need to find him at all costs.
00:45:59What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:46:02It's despicable.
00:46:04I can't do this anymore.
00:46:07I cancel everything.
00:46:08The interviews and the red carpets.
00:46:11I don't want to be seen.
00:46:13I can't pretend.
00:46:15I just want him back.
00:46:17Oh, honey.
00:46:19It's time to let him go.
00:46:21You don't love him anyway.
00:46:24Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:46:26What?
00:46:31How could you say something like that?
00:46:33Of course I love Daniel.
00:46:35He cares for me.
00:46:37He sees me.
00:46:38He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:46:42But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:46:46Daniel's my husband.
00:46:47And the father of my son.
00:46:49Yeah, some husband abandoning you without a moment's notice, wanting nothing to do with
00:46:53his child just because the contract ended?
00:46:56Contract?
00:46:58What contract?
00:46:59What are you talking about?
00:47:05Forget it.
00:47:06Forget it.
00:47:07Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:47:09When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on
00:47:14a trip.
00:47:15Is there something you're not telling me?
00:47:17Please.
00:47:18I just want the truth.
00:47:20Mom.
00:47:21Fine.
00:47:23I will tell you the truth.
00:47:25But promise me you won't get mad.
00:47:27I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:47:33But no, it was all for your own good.
00:47:39When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:47:42I had to save you.
00:47:44She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:47:48You've always been there for her.
00:47:50From film school to now.
00:47:51I've seen it.
00:47:53She needs you.
00:47:54Stay.
00:47:56Marry her.
00:47:56Love her.
00:47:58So that she's never alone again.
00:48:06It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:48:10How could you do this to me?
00:48:12I wanted to protect you.
00:48:14You wanted to control me.
00:48:15All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:48:19Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:48:20You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:48:28Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:48:30He kept you together.
00:48:32Where?
00:48:33Where did he go?
00:48:35I know he told you where he went.
00:48:37Where is he?
00:48:38You can do better than him.
00:48:40You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.
00:48:44Believe me, it's for the best.
00:48:46No, he can't be gone.
00:48:48He can't.
00:48:49Yes, he is gone and he is gone forever.
00:48:53He can't be.
00:48:54He can't be gone.
00:48:55He can't.
00:48:56I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of how Detainment Silver Fox has already generated
00:49:20a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:49:25Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:49:31Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:49:35What's going through your head tonight?
00:49:38Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own shtie.
00:49:41Nobody told me how.
00:49:43Oh, man, how comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:49:46I've heard this talk of the sequel.
00:49:47Uh, yeah, um, God, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been very honest
00:49:54about it, actually.
00:49:55I almost, I almost gave up the dream.
00:49:57But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I found my voice and it really
00:50:03is full steam ahead.
00:50:05Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way
00:50:09back to Hollywood?
00:50:12Hollywood.
00:50:13Get out of the country.
00:50:16If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living
00:50:22hell.
00:50:26Daniel?
00:50:26He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:50:44Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:50:50That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning
00:50:55actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:50:59Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:51:03We'll never tell.
00:51:07Oh, my God.
00:51:08Thanks for saving me, Emily.
00:51:10She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:51:12I know.
00:51:12Jeez.
00:51:13This is so surreal.
00:51:14I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:51:16I can.
00:51:18The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:51:22Daniel, enjoy this and get used to compliments.
00:51:28There's already Oscar buzz.
00:51:30Fuck.
00:51:31Finish me, I know.
00:51:32I feel like I'm drinking.
00:51:35You okay?
00:51:37You always do that when you're nervous.
00:51:39I know, it's, um, I'll have it.
00:51:41Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:51:47Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:59I know.
00:52:01Our press is good press.
00:52:02Daniel becomes an award-winning director,
00:52:10and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:52:14He can't do this to me!
00:52:17Sabrina.
00:52:18You don't need him.
00:52:19Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:52:21How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:24Move on?
00:52:25Please, honey.
00:52:27He is using her.
00:52:29Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:52:31He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:52:34How could you say that?
00:52:36I mean, any, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:52:40He's proving that to the whole world!
00:52:42Don't you see it?
00:52:43Sabrina.
00:52:44Look at what you've got.
00:52:46A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills, an adorable kid.
00:52:51Well, and he's not whining.
00:52:53And don't forget about Preston.
00:52:55Your dream man.
00:52:57You have everything.
00:52:58I don't have him.
00:53:01Mom, I'm hungry.
00:53:03Go have the chef make something.
00:53:04No, I hate what she cooks.
00:53:06And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:08Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:10Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:12He's your dad.
00:53:13No!
00:53:13Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:15Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:19It was fun telling him what to do.
00:53:20When did he get so cruel?
00:53:23You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:53:26A doormat.
00:53:28Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:30Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:32Enough!
00:53:33You little shit!
00:53:36Enough!
00:53:37Just enough!
00:53:38Sabrina?
00:53:39What's gotten into you?
00:53:41Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:45Whoa.
00:53:45What's going on in here?
00:53:47This room feels really tense.
00:53:49Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:51I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:53No!
00:53:53I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:56And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:53:59It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:54:02Hey, man.
00:54:07Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:11Really?
00:54:12Loser?
00:54:13Yeah.
00:54:13You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:17And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:54:26That's really, really low.
00:54:28Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:54:33Come on.
00:54:33We're America's power couple.
00:54:35To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:54:38Face it, Preston.
00:54:40You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:54:43And you're a fucking thief.
00:54:45Yeah.
00:54:46I know you're bankrupt.
00:54:47You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:54:50I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:54:53Because you know what?
00:54:54Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:55It's not like that.
00:54:57Okay?
00:54:57Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:55:00I want to marry you.
00:55:02We're a legacy.
00:55:02Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:55:04What's my birthday?
00:55:06Huh?
00:55:06What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:08What's my favorite color?
00:55:10My favorite song?
00:55:11Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:13Oh, oh, wait.
00:55:15What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:17You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:19You don't love me.
00:55:20You don't even know me.
00:55:22This isn't a relationship.
00:55:24This is a publicity stunt.
00:55:27And you know what?
00:55:28I'm done.
00:55:28Get out!
00:55:30I don't want to ever see you again.
00:55:32We're over.
00:55:35We're over.
00:55:36What?
00:55:36No, babe, babe.
00:55:37Come on.
00:55:37Please.
00:55:38Please, I love you.
00:55:39Just think about it.
00:55:40Look at the press.
00:55:41What does it look like?
00:55:43If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:47Get out.
00:55:48Babe, just...
00:55:48Now!
00:55:49Just give me your hand.
00:55:50Come on.
00:55:51No.
00:55:51I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:55Nobody sees the real thing.
00:55:56I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:58I see all of you.
00:56:01And you're never going to be alone again.
00:56:04He truly knew me.
00:56:07He loved me.
00:56:09Every flaw.
00:56:11Every fear.
00:56:12Contract or not.
00:56:14He truly loved me.
00:56:16I saved you from social suicide.
00:56:18Saved me?
00:56:20You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:56:22Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:56:25And he saved me from you.
00:56:28Security!
00:56:30Security!
00:56:31Come on.
00:56:32Just let's talk about this.
00:56:33No.
00:56:34Come on.
00:56:35Celeste, do something.
00:56:37Sabrina!
00:56:38Come on, Sabrina!
00:56:40Was that really necessary?
00:56:42I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:56:46Is that all you care about?
00:56:48The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:56:51God, you're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:56:57Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:57:00Of course I care about you.
00:57:02I love you.
00:57:04Then prove it.
00:57:06If you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:57:21You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:57:24I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:27In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:32I mean, you know this.
00:57:34You're a legend.
00:57:35I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:37All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:57:38You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:57:41I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:57:43I got projects.
00:57:44Come on.
00:57:45You're built for billion dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets made
00:57:49in L.A., not London.
00:57:50That's where you belong.
00:57:53To be honest, I already did L.A.
00:57:55It didn't really end well.
00:57:57Let me guess.
00:57:57My girl?
00:57:59If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:04You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:07You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:11You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:12Three picture deal.
00:58:13Two hundred million dollar budget each.
00:58:15Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:17I don't know what to say.
00:58:18Just say yes.
00:58:19You have my number.
00:58:21Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:23Just remember, Daniel, you can't run away from the past.
00:58:26You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:58:33Hey, it's been a while.
00:58:42Can we talk?
00:58:44Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:48Of course.
00:58:49It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:58:54Is this a personal story?
00:58:56Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:00Oh...
00:59:00She knows who she is.
00:59:03Um...
00:59:04I'll leave it at that.
00:59:07You arrogant little shit!
00:59:10I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:19It's Celeste Donovan.
00:59:21I need a favor.
00:59:22I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:59:28It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:31Mom, what are you doing?
00:59:38Did you just break my TV?
00:59:40Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:59:43You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:59:45You've been so kind, though.
00:59:46Um, it's called...
00:59:47You Drive Me Crazy.
00:59:49He's back.
00:59:53Why didn't you tell me?
00:59:56Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:59:58I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:00:01I need to get on that movie.
01:00:03Absolutely not.
01:00:04You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:06If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:09Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:11He still loves me.
01:00:14He has to.
01:00:16I just need to talk to him.
01:00:19Let him go.
01:00:23Mom.
01:00:24Honey, I...
01:00:26You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:00:30I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:00:32I...
01:00:33I love you.
01:00:36I love you, too.
01:00:40Here we go.
01:00:43This is, um...
01:00:44It's another movie deal.
01:00:46I'll tell you about it after.
01:00:47Okay.
01:00:47Did you get his location?
01:01:04The Oaks.
01:01:058 p.m.
01:01:07After I'm done with him,
01:01:09Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:12He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:01:17She's not protecting me.
01:01:25She's protecting her business.
01:01:27And I'm just a pawn.
01:01:29But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:01:33So nice having you back.
01:01:36And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:01:38Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
01:01:40A couple?
01:01:42Daniel, it was ten years of you slaving away for those people.
01:01:45If you can even call them that.
01:01:47But you're healthy now.
01:01:48And I'm at the top of my career.
01:01:50I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina,
01:01:53but I really thought I could make it work.
01:01:55The marriage, the kids.
01:01:57I mean, we really tried.
01:01:59I thought I could make it go for it, but, um...
01:02:02It's over.
01:02:04It's over.
01:02:05I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
01:02:07she thinks Preston D. Swick can offer.
01:02:08Oh, you haven't heard?
01:02:20She dumped him.
01:02:21It was all over People magazine.
01:02:23She ended it when his star faded.
01:02:24Oh, my God.
01:02:27What?
01:02:33Daniel!
01:02:37Stop!
01:02:37Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:02:47I'm here to help you.
01:02:48Sabrina, you're making a scene.
01:02:51Let's go home.
01:02:52Sabrina?
01:02:53How could you?
01:02:54What?
01:02:54I just came to ask Daniel
01:02:56if he'd let you audition,
01:02:57but he said no.
01:02:58I begged and pleaded.
01:03:00Stop lying.
01:03:01I saw you bribe the waiter
01:03:03to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:06And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,
01:03:08to catch him drugged out of his mind
01:03:10and ruin him.
01:03:11My God.
01:03:12You're disgusting.
01:03:13I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:15Not anymore.
01:03:16Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:03:21I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:03:24I'm your mother.
01:03:26I only want what's best for you.
01:03:29What's best for me?
01:03:32You've been controlling my life
01:03:34ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:03:37That all ends today.
01:03:41You're fired.
01:03:43You're fired.
01:03:46No.
01:03:49No.
01:03:53No.
01:03:55You can't do this to me.
01:03:56Please, please, sweetie.
01:03:58I have dedicated my life to you.
01:04:00You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:04:04I was just who you used to get to it.
01:04:07You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:10There's a thousand girls more talented
01:04:11than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:13I made you.
01:04:15You'd be nothing without me.
01:04:16I think she'll do just fine.
01:04:27We're done here, Mom.
01:04:28If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life
01:04:32or in mine,
01:04:34you'll leave now.
01:04:36Without another word.
01:04:38I have something to say.
01:04:49I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:04:54I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:04:58I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:05:03I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home
01:05:06and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:11Apologize to your father.
01:05:14Do I have to?
01:05:14Who raised you?
01:05:18Cared for you?
01:05:20Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:05:24Laid with you when you had nightmares
01:05:25and coddled you when you were sick?
01:05:28He did.
01:05:29He loved you.
01:05:30But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:05:32I was wrong.
01:05:34Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life
01:05:37and we abused it.
01:05:38And now there is nothing we could do
01:05:41to take that back.
01:05:43I'm sorry, Dad.
01:05:47It's gonna be okay, son.
01:05:49I just gonna love you.
01:05:51Okay.
01:05:52Come on, Jackson.
01:05:53Let's go.
01:06:00I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:03For everything.
01:06:08I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:15You're thinking of going back to them.
01:06:17No.
01:06:20I just didn't know it'd be this hard.
01:06:22They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:25They tore you to pieces
01:06:27and then just expected you to come running back.
01:06:32People can change.
01:06:34But that doesn't change the past.
01:06:38And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson
01:06:43for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:06:48Daniel!
01:06:48Daniel!
01:06:49Daniel!
01:06:49I'm here, Daniel!
01:06:51Daniel, is it true that the script
01:06:52that won you Oscars for both writing and directing
01:06:54sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:06:56Yes.
01:06:57I'll admit I got a little sidelined,
01:06:59but I think I found my way back.
01:07:03But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:07:04Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else
01:07:09until you love yourself.
01:07:16Way to go, John!
01:07:17Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:07:38We'll keep in touch.
01:07:39How many more do we have today?
01:07:4740, sir.
01:07:48Jeez.
01:07:49Hey, boy!
01:07:50How we looking?
01:07:51We're so big in here.
01:07:52Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:07:56I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:07:59All right, here's the deal.
01:08:01The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:08:04Today?
01:08:05Are you fucking kidding me?
01:08:07That's why I love you, man.
01:08:08Cool under pressure.
01:08:09This movie is going to blow the roof off.
01:08:15Oh, my God.
01:08:16All right, just bring in the next one.
01:08:18But that would be Emily Blake.
01:08:24Emily.
01:08:29Emily, amazing as always.
01:08:32You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:08:35Please.
01:08:36I wasn't going to miss a shot who auditioned for the great Daniel Jones.
01:08:41How's LA treating you?
01:08:43Oh, my God.
01:08:44Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:08:46But I am...
01:08:48I'm glad to be back.
01:08:50Well, it's no English countryside.
01:08:52Yeah.
01:08:52But it suits you.
01:08:56You definitely belong here.
01:08:58I do miss you, though.
01:09:02It was fun.
01:09:03Playing the part.
01:09:05British starlet.
01:09:06American director.
01:09:08I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:12I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:15I'm sorry, Emily.
01:09:18It just cost me, and we'll call it even.
01:09:20You were amazing, as always.
01:09:24It's just...
01:09:25It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:09:30I never was, was I?
01:09:32Anyways.
01:09:34Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:09:37Maybe I'll see you around?
01:09:39Yeah.
01:09:39Okay.
01:09:39Give me a copy, and you know what?
01:09:52Go get one for yourself, too.
01:09:56And be generous with the sugar.
01:10:03Oh, my God.
01:10:04What am I going to do?
01:10:09That was quick.
01:10:22What are you doing here?
01:10:25I came to audition.
01:10:29Did you bring any representation?
01:10:31No.
01:10:32I fired my manager, remember?
01:10:36I'm starting fresh.
01:10:38Right.
01:10:38Um...
01:10:40Hi.
01:10:43I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:10:47Don't let me go!
01:10:48I got you.
01:10:50I'll never let you go.
01:10:53Are you okay?
01:10:54Yeah.
01:10:55It's an old wound that, um...
01:10:57never really healed.
01:11:01I understand.
01:11:05Daniel Johnson.
01:11:06Nice to meet you.
01:11:12Please.
01:11:21Whenever you're ready.
01:11:45You're okay.
01:11:45You're right.
01:11:46You're next to me.
