00:09:16Thank you!
00:09:17Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:20Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:21Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:23Are you kidding?
00:09:24Oh, Daniel.
00:09:25Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:28Oh, there he is!
00:09:30The assistant!
00:09:31I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:34God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:39Stop!
00:09:40I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:46Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:50Daniel!
00:09:51Oh.
00:09:52Don't embarrass me.
00:09:53No, it's fine.
00:09:54Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:09:58He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you think, you know?
00:10:02My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:04He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:06Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:09What are you saying, huh?
00:10:10Yeah.
00:10:11Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:15It's fine, it's fine.
00:10:18Just relax, okay?
00:10:20Be nice.
00:10:29Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized,
00:10:33I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:10:37Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:39But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:10:49Ooh, careful.
00:10:50You all right?
00:10:54I'm still starving.
00:10:55Make me some food.
00:10:57Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:00Stew?
00:11:01Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:04I told you a hundred times, I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:07Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:10I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:13Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:16Well, babe, for real?
00:11:18For real?
00:11:19Yeah.
00:11:20My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:23Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:25I'm rich.
00:11:27Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:30I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:34See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:36You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:37You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:11:39They were so dull.
00:11:40Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:11:44Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:11:48So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:11:52My treat.
00:11:54Here we go.
00:11:55What?
00:11:56Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:11:57I don't mind.
00:11:58All of you insist.
00:11:59I mean, I'm already dressed, so...
00:12:01Okay.
00:12:02Oh.
00:12:03Mm-hmm.
00:12:04Okay.
00:12:05Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so...
00:12:10Anyways.
00:12:11Come on, Ben.
00:12:12Let's go.
00:12:13That's great.
00:12:14Gotcha.
00:12:15There we go.
00:12:16Oh.
00:12:17There's Paps.
00:12:19You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:21Last time.
00:12:22I promise.
00:12:25You're right.
00:12:26It is the last time.
00:12:29Hey, guys.
00:12:31Hi.
00:12:32Jackson.
00:12:33Jackson.
00:12:39Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:12:43Contract's fine.
00:12:45It's over.
00:12:47Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:51I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:55After ten years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:12:58Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:12:59She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:00Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:01Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:02I could scream.
00:13:03I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:04Preston Eastwood.
00:13:05I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:13:06OMG.
00:13:07I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:13:09A scene that I wrote.
00:13:10I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:11Preston Eastwood.
00:13:12I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:13:13OMG.
00:13:14I 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.
00:13:18Wait.
00:13:19Are you two dating?
00:13:20Oh.
00:13:21Wait.
00:13:22Are you two dating?
00:13:23Oh.
00:13:24Well, actually.
00:13:25This is totally a date.
00:13:26All these years.
00:13:27I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:13:29Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:13:30You're not really obsessed with me.
00:13:31I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:32Preston Eastwood.
00:13:33I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:13:35OMG.
00:13:36I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:13:37A scene that I wrote.
00:13:38Uncredited of course.
00:13:39Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:40Wait.
00:13:41Are you two dating?
00:13:42Oh.
00:13:43Well, actually.
00:13:44This is totally a date.
00:13:45All these years.
00:13:46I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:13:49Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:13:55You're not really a part of my brand.
00:13:57Your brand?
00:13:58It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:00You get it.
00:14:01Right?
00:14:10So, you two are a thing?
00:14:12Well, I...
00:14:13It's okay, babe.
00:14:14We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:25This is so going viral.
00:14:26I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:28It looks like more than dating.
00:14:30Are...
00:14:31Is this your son?
00:14:32I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:14:34Don't be silly.
00:14:35You have a dad and he's a sissy.
00:14:38That's what all the boys at school say.
00:14:40He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:14:43But Preston is awesome.
00:14:46He's an action spy.
00:14:48I wish he was my dad.
00:14:51My own son doesn't respect me.
00:14:53But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood after party with a call girl.
00:14:59It's okay, buddy.
00:15:00Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:02If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:05That is if mom's school with it.
00:15:07Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:09Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:11Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:13Come on.
00:15:16Let's give Michelle.
00:15:32Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:15:37I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:15:40Sabrina will end up on top and you will end up with nothing.
00:15:46Daniel!
00:15:48You know, it's probably for the best.
00:15:50From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:15:54Daniel, he's here?
00:15:56Did he see us?
00:15:57Is he looking over here?
00:15:58Oh, fuck.
00:15:59That's not good.
00:16:00I was just doing that for Felicity.
00:16:01I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:03Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:04Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:08Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:16:10Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:12Jackson, enough.
00:16:15What do I do?
00:16:16Well, that's it then.
00:16:18Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:20I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:23I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:16:27You're really good at that.
00:16:28Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:16:32A one-way ticket.
00:16:34So you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:16:38I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:16:43I will come after you with everything I got.
00:16:46Daniel loves me.
00:16:47He has to understand.
00:16:48This is Hollywood.
00:16:49It's just part of the job.
00:16:52Daniel, I can explain.
00:16:54Daniel, what is this?
00:17:00I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:04All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:07Are you going somewhere?
00:17:09Funny.
00:17:10Oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:12We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:15Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:17A vacation?
00:17:18Finally.
00:17:19You're paying attention.
00:17:20Yeah.
00:17:21I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:24Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:17:26What are we supposed to do without you?
00:17:28Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:17:29That's not what I meant.
00:17:30Whoa.
00:17:31Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:17:34That's fine.
00:17:35Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:17:37Just like any good husband would.
00:17:39Oh, I see.
00:17:41Is it me?
00:17:42Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:17:44I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:17:46I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:17:48You know what?
00:17:50Maybe I should go.
00:17:51I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:17:52No, please stay.
00:17:53I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:17:56No, you know what?
00:17:58I'll go.
00:17:59And clearly she wants you.
00:18:01I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:18:03Daniel, wait.
00:18:04I won't ever let you go.
00:18:07He won't leave.
00:18:08He promised.
00:18:09It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:12We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:14I'm going to go back.
00:18:16Daniel!
00:18:17Oh, please.
00:18:18Better than yours.
00:18:19Yeah.
00:18:20Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:18:21Oh, good.
00:18:22You're up.
00:18:23Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:18:37It's fun.
00:18:38Don't look at me like that.
00:18:41I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:18:44Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:18:48How lucky for him.
00:18:50He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:18:52Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:18:56Yeah.
00:18:57Listen, man.
00:18:58I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:02You can trust me.
00:19:04Preston, I think you're...
00:19:07Mm-hmm.
00:19:08You need to go right now.
00:19:09All right.
00:19:11Oh, hey.
00:19:12Daniel, seriously.
00:19:13Listen, man.
00:19:14I...
00:19:15When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:19I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:19:23Just ignore him.
00:19:24He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:19:26No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:19:29Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:19:31Jealous?
00:19:32My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:19:36Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:19:41You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:19:46No.
00:19:49That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house
00:19:54husband.
00:19:55Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I could look after him?
00:20:00Oh, my God.
00:20:02God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:07Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:11No, it's not like that.
00:20:13I...
00:20:14What?
00:20:15You know what?
00:20:16Fine.
00:20:19You two look great together.
00:20:20Daniel, I...
00:20:34And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:20:37Um...
00:20:45I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:20:49Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:20:54I was never the homemaker.
00:20:56I was never the most escritor.
00:20:58I'm always the most
00:21:00I had to ask her, but do we not even know where her is supposed to come, dear?
00:21:06No, we're not supposed to work.
00:21:07Too much.
00:21:09No, no, no.
00:21:10No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:21:11No, no, no, no, no.
00:21:12I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:18If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:21:22I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:21:36Look at her now, playing house for another man.
00:21:39If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:00There he is.
00:22:02God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:05Man, no, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:08Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:12Got some.
00:22:14Yeah.
00:22:15What do you need?
00:22:16Oh, oh.
00:22:17Yeah, there you go.
00:22:18I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:22:21Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:22:23Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:22:29Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:22:33No.
00:22:35A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:22:38Why would I be threatened by that?
00:22:43It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:22:47What's wrong, Jackson?
00:22:58Mr. Eastwood!
00:22:59I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me.
00:23:03And it's unfair.
00:23:04That's a shame, huh?
00:23:05You know what?
00:23:06Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:07Here we go.
00:23:09Ooh.
00:23:10No.
00:23:11No, it's not to play with them.
00:23:14You never let me do anything!
00:23:17Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:23:20You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:23:22It's not about the money.
00:23:23It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:23:26Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:23:30Yeah?
00:23:31What's that supposed to mean?
00:23:33You're so annoying!
00:23:35Don't push.
00:23:37Push.
00:23:41I said don't push.
00:23:43Go get a book or something.
00:23:44Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:23:46He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.
00:23:49God, what the hell is he?
00:23:50Just show me.
00:23:54Call it a lesson.
00:23:55I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:23:57He's not your kid.
00:23:58I wish I was.
00:24:00I hope Mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:03I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:24:05Ouch.
00:24:06I mean, you just heard your son.
00:24:08So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:24:10Um, maybe it will be.
00:24:12But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:24:15You?
00:24:17Man of the house?
00:24:18Please.
00:24:19You're a pussy in an apron.
00:24:20I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:24:24And you're a washed up pack.
00:24:25Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:24:27How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:24:30I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:24:32I'm a fucking star!
00:24:33A star?
00:24:34A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:24:38Jackson, come on.
00:24:39I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:24:41No, I'm not going.
00:24:43Preston's way cooler than you.
00:24:45Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:24:47You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:25:13What was that?
00:25:17Let's go.
00:25:21Daniel!
00:25:22What is happening?
00:25:23It was Dad, Mom.
00:25:25Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:25:27What?
00:25:27I'm so scared.
00:25:28That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:25:30What the hell, Daniel?
00:25:32I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:25:33I came in looking for a fight.
00:25:34What?
00:25:35I didn't?
00:25:36Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:25:37You're acting like a jealous child.
00:25:40I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:25:42He threw a fish tank at me.
00:25:43It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:25:45Grow up.
00:25:46Remember we're in the public eye?
00:25:48What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:25:50What?
00:25:50Everyone knows your precious Preston attacked me?
00:25:54Maybe I should go.
00:25:55I'm sorry.
00:25:56No.
00:25:57Oh, my God.
00:25:59He's lying.
00:26:01You're a monster.
00:26:03And in front of your son?
00:26:05You have to be kidding.
00:26:06We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:07We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:26:11Come on.
00:26:12Clean this up.
00:26:15Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:26:20She's mine now, loser.
00:26:31Hello, 911.
00:26:32What's your emergency?
00:26:33I'm bleeding out.
00:26:34I think I hit an artery.
00:26:36I need an ambulance now.
00:26:38Now.
00:26:48You did lose a lot of blood.
00:26:50So we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquid.
00:26:54To be honest, that's...
00:26:55I could use a break from home.
00:26:57Trouble with the missus?
00:26:58Uh, yeah.
00:27:02Pretty obvious.
00:27:04Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:07I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.
00:27:14True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:27:17I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:27:20You said, um, a couple?
00:27:23I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official.
00:27:28She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:27:33She was so sweet.
00:27:38Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:27:40No, it's...
00:27:42It's an old wound.
00:27:45I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:27:49Daniel!
00:27:49Sweet and caring.
00:27:53So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:27:56He only had to break her heart to get it.
00:27:58And left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:06Fuck it.
00:28:08I'm going to get my shit in, y'all.
00:28:11Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:28:13You once liked my short film.
00:28:15I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:28:19It needs the right producer.
00:28:27I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:28:31Where have you been?
00:28:33I kept calling.
00:28:34I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:28:37Huh?
00:28:42What?
00:28:42I've been busy.
00:28:43Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:28:46Seriously?
00:28:47Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:28:49I told you, he's just a friend.
00:28:53Yeah.
00:28:54That's what you want to call it?
00:28:57I...
00:28:57I just...
00:28:58I'm sorry.
00:29:00I...
00:29:01Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:29:08It is what it is.
00:29:09But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:29:14You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:29:18And I think you should go for it.
00:29:20I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:29:23But I just...
00:29:25I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:29:30Seriously.
00:29:30I...
00:29:31I care about you.
00:29:37I'm no man.
00:29:39I've known you for 14 years.
00:29:41I know when you're angry.
00:29:42Really?
00:29:43I didn't think you paid attention.
00:29:45I pay attention?
00:29:47Since when do I not pay attention?
00:29:49She signed the papers without reading them.
00:29:53That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:29:55A headline.
00:29:56A performance.
00:29:59Sabrina.
00:30:03Sabrina, I'm gonna...
00:30:04You know what?
00:30:05I hate fighting.
00:30:06So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:30:09I was thinking we could revisit your script.
00:30:16I gave that to you three years ago.
00:30:19You tell me you finally read it?
00:30:21Well, yeah.
00:30:22The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:30:25The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:30:28I mean, we have to do this.
00:30:30Me and you.
00:30:31The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:30:34I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:30:38A long time ago.
00:30:40Well, how about you make us some lattes,
00:30:43and for the next hour,
00:30:45we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:30:47Just like we used to in film school.
00:30:50There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:30:53I would have melted in her hands.
00:30:56Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:30:58What?
00:31:08I don't know what you do,
00:31:15but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:31:18and it was awful.
00:31:21Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you,
00:31:23and I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:31:25That's not what I meant.
00:31:27I like it when you make it.
00:31:29I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:31:35I knew it.
00:31:37You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:31:39I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:31:43God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me
00:31:45on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:31:48Married people are fucking boring.
00:31:51It's good to know where you stand.
00:31:53No, Daniel.
00:31:54No, that's not what I meant.
00:32:02Look what you made me do.
00:32:03Just leave it.
00:32:07I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:32:11And what?
00:32:12It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:32:14I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:32:16And look what I get for it.
00:32:18You know what?
00:32:19Forget it.
00:32:20I have a mirror.
00:32:21We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:32:37What?
00:32:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:32:41Yeah.
00:32:41Ex-mother-in-law.
00:32:42Not quite.
00:32:43That was the divorce contract.
00:32:45But if you want a clean break,
00:32:46we need to finalize your entertainment contract
00:32:48and our family's NDA.
00:32:49This is showbiz, baby.
00:32:51Remember that.
00:32:52I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:32:54I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood
00:33:07into her trailer on set.
00:33:09Oh, please.
00:33:10She's always been so secretive.
00:33:12I mean, this is her movie premiere,
00:33:14and where is her husband?
00:33:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:33:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:33:24Oh, well.
00:33:25If we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:33:27Come here.
00:33:28Oh.
00:33:31Jackson!
00:33:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:33:35Do you know where she is?
00:33:36Or who she's with?
00:33:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:33:40He's been staying with us.
00:33:41Oh.
00:33:42Really?
00:33:44Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:33:47Oh, I hope so.
00:33:48I really hope so.
00:33:49He's way cooler than my old, boring real dad.
00:33:53Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:33:56Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:33:59What are you doing here?
00:34:06You never come to these things.
00:34:09Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:34:12Get lost.
00:34:13You embarrass us.
00:34:14Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:34:16I'm your father.
00:34:17I wish you never were my dad.
00:34:22Is there a problem?
00:34:23Oh, my God.
00:34:29That's Preston Eastwood.
00:34:31How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:34:34If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:34:37I wish Preston was my dad.
00:34:38You're a pathetic loser.
00:34:40Zip it, Jackson.
00:34:41You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:34:47I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:34:48That's not what I see.
00:34:49You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:34:59That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:35:02It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:35:04And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:35:09This was all a stunt, was it?
00:35:11You were revolting.
00:35:13No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:35:15Hey.
00:35:17Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:35:19Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:35:23Yeah, maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:35:25Oh, yeah?
00:35:26What lesson's that, Preston?
00:35:27You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:35:31Hmm.
00:35:35Oh!
00:35:36Oh!
00:35:36What the hell?
00:35:54What happened?
00:35:57Oh my god!
00:35:58Daniel!
00:35:59What the hell happened?
00:36:01Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:03Are you okay?
00:36:03Look at her go.
00:36:06Hollywood's finest.
00:36:08Always performing when there's an audience.
00:36:10It's Daniel.
00:36:12He's a monster.
00:36:13He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:36:16Mommy!
00:36:17Dad came in here and started shouting at me!
00:36:19No.
00:36:20No, that's not true.
00:36:21If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:36:26Can you imagine the allegations?
00:36:30Daniel.
00:36:32Is that true?
00:36:35Sabrina.
00:36:37Oh!
00:36:39Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:36:41I think one of them's broken.
00:36:44Sabrina.
00:36:45Honey.
00:36:46We need to help Preston.
00:36:49But Daniel.
00:36:53Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:36:55Eastwood.
00:37:07Mommy, please.
00:37:08We can't leave him.
00:37:10I...
00:37:10I have...
00:37:12I have to help Preston.
00:37:23Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:24Hey.
00:37:25Hey.
00:37:25Hey.
00:37:25Hey.
00:37:27Come on, Jackson.
00:37:34Daniel!
00:37:35I got you.
00:37:37Don't let me go.
00:37:39She's made her choice.
00:37:41There's no going back.
00:37:42We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:37:54Well.
00:37:55Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:37:56That went even better than I planned.
00:37:59Now we can make a clean break.
00:38:01I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:38:04There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:38:07Get out of Hollywood.
00:38:09In fact, get out of the country.
00:38:12Don't worry.
00:38:13Don't worry.
00:38:13If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:38:19Don't worry.
00:38:20Don't worry.
00:38:20Don't worry about it.
00:38:32Don't worry about it.
00:38:34Just drive.
00:38:35Don't worry about it.
00:38:36Don't worry about it.
00:38:37Don't worry about it.
00:38:38Don't worry about it.
00:38:39Don't worry about it.
00:38:40Don't worry about it.
00:38:41Don't worry about it.
00:38:42Don't worry about it.
00:38:43Don't worry about it.
00:38:44Don't worry about it.
00:38:45Don't worry about it.
00:38:46Don't worry about it.
00:38:47Don't worry about it.
00:38:48Don't worry about it.
00:38:49Don't worry about it.
00:38:50Don't worry about it.
00:38:51Don't worry about it.
00:38:52Don't worry about it.
00:38:53What are you doing? I thought you were hurt. I think I'll pull through
00:39:15So what are you doing? I've always wanted to
00:39:18Come on, I know you want this. I see the way you look at me. And now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself. I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:39:38What am I doing? Daniel is still injured. He should be home.
00:39:46Sabrina?
00:39:48Yeah.
00:39:57Preston, get off.
00:39:59What? Babe, we can finally come here.
00:40:02I said get off.
00:40:03What?
00:40:04I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:40:06No, forget about him.
00:40:07Look, I love Jackson and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted. I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy. I mean, come on, Sabrina.
00:40:17Your son, your mother, even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:40:22What?
00:40:23Look, he's already moved on.
00:40:26No.
00:40:27No.
00:40:29No.
00:40:30What have I done?
00:40:32Where is he?
00:40:33What about me?
00:40:34You had your chance 10 years ago. I need to go take care of my husband.
00:40:39Hello?
00:40:40Excuse me.
00:40:41Excuse me.
00:40:42Excuse me.
00:40:43Hi.
00:40:44Have you seen my husband?
00:40:45Please.
00:40:46He was someone bleeding out.
00:40:47Um, I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman. He didn't come back in though.
00:40:54Oh, no.
00:40:55Oh, no.
00:40:56God, Daniel, where are you?
00:40:57I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service. Please try again later.
00:41:10What have I done?
00:41:12Oh, come on, Daniel. Answer me.
00:41:27He's not gone. I know Daniel wouldn't leave me. He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:41:48No.
00:41:50It's not possible. He will be back.
00:41:56No.
00:41:57No.
00:42:08Boy, it's all assets.
00:42:10Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:42:12The waves all spousal support.
00:42:15No.
00:42:16No, he can't leave me.
00:42:18You can't do this to me. I won't sign off on him.
00:42:30No.
00:42:32All this time, who's gonna leave me?
00:42:36It can't be.
00:42:51It's not us.
00:42:53Honestly, it doesn't matter. My mom will look it over anyways.
00:42:58He loves me. He loves Jackson. He wouldn't just leave us. We're his family. After all these years, everything we've been through.
00:43:10I got you. Don't let me go.
00:43:22Don't let me go.
00:43:23Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:37Daniel?
00:43:38No, it's mom. Is everything okay? You sound panicked?
00:43:41Mom.
00:43:42Mom.
00:43:43Daniel. He just left us. Do you know where he is? We have to find him. We can check the hospital or the...
00:43:58Oh, honey. It's over. Daniel's not coming back.
00:44:04You knew?
00:44:05I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:44:16I'm hungry! Dad! Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:44:21Jackson?
00:44:23I have something to tell you.
00:44:29Your dad...
00:44:32Your dad...
00:44:34He's left us.
00:44:36I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:44:39Yay! He's gone! He's gone!
00:44:42Why would you say that?
00:44:43He was so embarrassing! Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:44:46Mr. Eastwood?
00:44:48What did Preston say?
00:44:49He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets then raising a young man.
00:44:56He was so lame and boring. Now he's gone! Mr. Eastwood is way cooler! He can be my new dad!
00:45:04Jackson! You have a dad! And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:45:09Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:18Hello? Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:45:20Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant. I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:45:24I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:45:26Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood. Was that done with your approval?
00:45:31No, but I'm not surprised. Flag his name. I want him frozen and cut off.
00:45:38Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again. Okay?
00:45:44He's not the man you think he is. Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:45:50And we need to find him at all costs.
00:45:52What kind of coward abandons his family, huh? It's despicable.
00:45:58I can't do this anymore. I cancel everything. The interviews and the red carpets. I don't want to be seen. I can't pretend. I just want him back.
00:46:12Honey, it's time to let him go. You don't love him anyway. Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:46:22What? How could you say something like that?
00:46:28Of course I love Daniel. He cares for me. He sees me. He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:46:37But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:46:40Daniel's my husband. And the father of my son.
00:46:44Yeah, some husband. Abandoning you without a moment's notice. Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended?
00:46:49Contract? What contract?
00:46:56What are you talking about?
00:46:59Forget it. Forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:47:03When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:47:09Is there something you're not telling me? Please. I just want the truth.
00:47:14Mom.
00:47:16Fine. I will tell you the truth. But promise me you won't get mad.
00:47:21I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina. But no, it was all for your own good.
00:47:32When Preston left you, you were distraught. I had to save you.
00:47:37She's lost without you, Daniel. You've always been there for her. From film school to now. I've seen it. She needs you. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she's never alone again.
00:47:54It was all just some sort of obligation? How could you do this to me? I wanted to protect you.
00:48:08You wanted to control me. All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:48:12Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:48:18You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop. Daniel did what he was meant to do. He kept you together.
00:48:26Where? Where did he go? I know he told you where he went. Where is he?
00:48:32You can do better than him. You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet. Believe me, it's for the best.
00:48:39No, he can't be gone. He can't. Yes, he is gone and he is gone forever. He can't be. He can't be gone again.
00:49:10I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:49:20Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:49:26Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. What's going through your head tonight?
00:49:31Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own shteed. Nobody told me how. Oh man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:49:40I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:49:43Yeah. God, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been very honest about it actually. I almost gave up the dream.
00:49:50I almost gave up the dream. But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I found my voice and it really is full steam ahead.
00:49:59Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:50:07Hollywood.
00:50:08Get out of the country. If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:50:20Daniel?
00:50:21He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him. Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:50:44That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two time Golden Globe Award winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:50:53Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:50:57We'll never tell.
00:51:01Oh my God, thanks for saving me.
00:51:04She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:51:06I know, jeez. This is so surreal. I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:51:10I can. The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:51:16Daniel. Enjoy this.
00:51:20And get used to compliments. There's already Oscar buzz.
00:51:24Fuck. Finish me, I know. I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:51:29You okay? You always do that when you're nervous.
00:51:33I know, it's um, I'll have it.
00:51:35We'll have it.
00:51:36Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:51:41Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:42I know.
00:51:43Our press is good press.
00:51:44Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:51:55Grrr.
00:51:56He can't do this to me!
00:51:57Sabrina.
00:51:58You don't need him. Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:51:59How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:00Move on?
00:52:01Please, honey.
00:52:02He is using her.
00:52:03Why do you think he signed the contract with me?
00:52:04I know.
00:52:05I know.
00:52:06I know.
00:52:07I know.
00:52:08I know.
00:52:09I know.
00:52:10I know.
00:52:11I know.
00:52:12I know.
00:52:13I know.
00:52:14I know.
00:52:15I know.
00:52:16I know.
00:52:17I know.
00:52:18I know.
00:52:19I know.
00:52:20I know.
00:52:21I know.
00:52:22I know.
00:52:23I know.
00:52:24Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:52:26He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:52:29How could you say that?
00:52:30I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:52:34He's proving that to the whole world.
00:52:36Don't you see it?
00:52:37Sabrina.
00:52:38Look at what you've got.
00:52:40A celebrated career.
00:52:42A mansion in the hills.
00:52:44An adorable kid.
00:52:45Well, when he's not whining.
00:52:47And don't forget about Preston.
00:52:49Your dream man.
00:52:51You have everything.
00:52:53I don't.
00:52:54Have.
00:52:55Him.
00:52:56Mom, I'm hungry.
00:52:57Go have the chef make something.
00:52:59No.
00:53:00I hate what she cooks.
00:53:01And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:02Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:04Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:06He's your dad.
00:53:07No!
00:53:08Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:10Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:13It was fun telling him what to do.
00:53:15When did he get so cruel?
00:53:17You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:53:21A doormat.
00:53:22Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:24Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:25Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:26Enough!
00:53:27You little shit!
00:53:30Enough!
00:53:31Just enough!
00:53:32Sabrina?
00:53:33What's gotten into you?
00:53:35Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:38Whoa.
00:53:39What's going on in here?
00:53:41This room feels really tense.
00:53:43Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:45I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:47No!
00:53:48I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:50And if you keep talking like that, I'm gonna put you in a timeout.
00:53:53It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:54:00Hey, baby.
00:54:01Are you really gonna get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:05Loser, really?
00:54:06Loser?
00:54:07Yeah.
00:54:08You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:11And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:54:20That's really, really low.
00:54:22Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:54:27Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:54:29To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:54:32Face it, Preston.
00:54:34You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:54:37And you're a fucking thief!
00:54:39Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:54:41You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:54:44I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:54:47Because you know what?
00:54:48Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:49It's not like that, okay?
00:54:51Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:54:54I wanna marry you.
00:54:55We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:54:58What's my birthday?
00:55:00Huh?
00:55:01What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:03What's my favorite color?
00:55:04My favorite song?
00:55:05Oh!
00:55:06What's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:07Oh!
00:55:08Oh, wait!
00:55:09What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:11You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:13You don't love me.
00:55:14You don't even know me.
00:55:16This isn't a relationship.
00:55:18This is a publicity stunt.
00:55:21And you know what?
00:55:22I'm done!
00:55:23Get out!
00:55:24I don't wanna ever see you again.
00:55:27We're over.
00:55:29We're over.
00:55:30What?
00:55:31No, babe, babe, come on.
00:55:32Please.
00:55:33Please, I love you.
00:55:34Just think about it.
00:55:35Look at the press.
00:55:36What does it look like?
00:55:37If I have to call my security,
00:55:39all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:41Get out.
00:55:42Babe, just...
00:55:43Now!
00:55:44Just give me your hand.
00:55:45Come on.
00:55:46No.
00:55:47I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:49Nobody sees the real me.
00:55:51I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:53I see all of you.
00:55:55And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:55:58He truly knew me.
00:56:01He loved me.
00:56:03Every flaw.
00:56:05Every fear.
00:56:06Contract or not.
00:56:08He truly loved me.
00:56:10I saved you from social suicide!
00:56:12Saved me?
00:56:14You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:56:16Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:56:19And he saved me from you.
00:56:22Security!
00:56:25Security!
00:56:26Come on.
00:56:27Just let's talk about this.
00:56:28No.
00:56:29Come on.
00:56:30Celeste!
00:56:31Do something!
00:56:32Sabrina!
00:56:33Come on!
00:56:34Sabrina!
00:56:35Was that really necessary?
00:56:37I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:56:39and people's sexiest man alive.
00:56:41Is that all you care about?
00:56:42The fame?
00:56:43The headlines?
00:56:44The brand deals?
00:56:45God!
00:56:46You're supposed to be my mother first.
00:56:49Not some money-grubbing manager.
00:56:51Sabrina.
00:56:52You are being dramatic.
00:56:54Of course I care about you.
00:56:57I love you.
00:56:58Then prove it.
00:56:59If you ever want me in front of a camera again,
00:57:02then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:57:12You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:57:19I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:21In film school,
00:57:22we were literally told to watch every single film
00:57:25that you ever produced.
00:57:26I mean, you know this.
00:57:28You're a legend.
00:57:29I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:31Alright, let me cut to the chase.
00:57:32You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:57:35I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing alright.
00:57:37I got projects.
00:57:38Come on.
00:57:39You're built for billion dollar franchises.
00:57:41Hollywood blockbusters.
00:57:42The one that gets made in LA, not London.
00:57:45That's where you belong.
00:57:47To be honest, I already did LA.
00:57:49It didn't really end well.
00:57:51Let me guess.
00:57:52My girl?
00:57:53If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:57:58You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:58:01You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:05You've given me a lot to think about.
00:58:06Three picture deal.
00:58:07Two hundred million dollar budget each.
00:58:09Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:11I don't know what to say.
00:58:12Just say yes.
00:58:13You have my number.
00:58:15Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:17Just remember, Daniel.
00:58:18You can't run away from the past.
00:58:20You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:58:23You can't run away from the past.
00:58:24You can't run away from the past.
00:58:25You can't run away from the past.
00:58:26You can't run away from the past.
00:58:27I don't know.
00:58:28I don't know.
00:58:29I can't run away from the past.
00:58:30I've missed a story because you've got really good enough.
00:58:34Hey, it's been a while.
00:58:35Can we talk?
00:58:36Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:40a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:43Of course, it's about a man who gets fucked over
00:58:46by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:58:49Is this a personal story?
00:58:51Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:58:54Oh, she knows who she is.
00:58:58Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:59:03You arrogant little shit.
00:59:05I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country,
00:59:08I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:10It's Celeste Donovan.
00:59:16I need a favor.
00:59:17I need you to track down Daniel Johnson
00:59:19and find out where he'll be around eight o'clock tonight.
00:59:23It's time for a little reunion
00:59:25with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:28Mom, what are you doing?
00:59:33Did you just break my TV?
00:59:35Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:59:38You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:59:40You've been so kind, though.
00:59:41Um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
00:59:44He's back.
00:59:47Why didn't you tell me?
00:59:51Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:59:53I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:59:56I need to get on that movie.
00:59:58Absolutely not.
01:00:00You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:00:01If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:00:04Oh, honey.
01:00:05I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:06I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:07I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:08He still loves me.
01:00:09He has to.
01:00:10I just need to talk to him.
01:00:14Let.
01:00:15Him.
01:00:16Go.
01:00:17Mom.
01:00:18Honey, I, you know, I just want what's best for you, right?
01:00:24I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:00:29I love you.
01:00:30I love you, too.
01:00:31Here we go.
01:00:32This is, um, it's another movie deal.
01:00:33I'll tell you about it after.
01:00:34Okay.
01:00:35Okay.
01:00:36Okay.
01:00:37Okay.
01:00:38Did you get his location?
01:00:39No.
01:00:40No.
01:00:41No.
01:00:42No.
01:00:43No.
01:00:44No.
01:00:45No.
