Transcript

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 the 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.

00:00:41You 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 used to 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?

00:02:02What's going on?

00:02:04Honey!

00:02:05I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.

00:02:10If the paparazzi catch him next to you, ugh.

00:02:13But I need to go.

00:02:15I have an appointment with your child.

00:02:18Think 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.

00:02:56But first, your mother and I need to talk.

00:03:00No!

00:03:00I want to eat now!

00:03:02You 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 that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.

00:03:23I got something I need to tell you.

00:03:27I'll make it quick.

00:03:28This isn't easy, but I...

00:03:29Ew, what is this?

00:03:31It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.

00:03:33I 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 myself as a wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.

00:04:11Enough.

00:04:12Just enough.

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 di...

00:04:35I 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, your 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?

00:05:05It's not a...

00:05:06Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.

00:05:08It's hard 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.

00:05:24Mwah!

00:05:25Love you.

00:05:26I devoted myself to this family for ten 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.

00:05:36The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.

00:05:46We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.

00:05:49I can't.

00:05:50My wife needs me here in L.A.

00:05:51After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all 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.

00:06:07How you doing?

00:06:08Oh, good, dear.

00:06:10I 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.

00:06:20But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.

00:06:24I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.

00:06:32I am, Mom.

00:06:34And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.

00:06:42That's 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.

00:06:50What 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.

00:07:12Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.

00:07:17All right, cut.

00:07:22All 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 the rising star.

00:07:33I was just the director's assistant.

00:07:35Our future's ahead of us.

00:07:39If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.

00:07:45SheNBA's son.

00:07:45SheNBAκα.

00:07:46SheNBA.

00:07:55Theyאת.

00:07:58SheNBA.

00:07:59SheNBA.

00:07:59Ha ha ha ha.

00:08:00Ha ha ha ha.

00:08:02Ha ha ha ha.

00:08:04Ha ha ha.

00:08:08OK.

00:08:09OK.

00:08:10OK.

00:08:11OK.

00:08:16Just join me.

00:08:18Rest up.

00:08:19I just let the love.

00:08:21Sabrina, don't!

00:08:36Stay back.

00:08:38I mean it.

00:08:39Sabrina, don't do this.

00:08:44Just...

00:08:45Just give me your hand.

00:08:51No!

00:09:00Daniel!

00:09:03I got you.

00:09:05No!

00:09:06Don't let me go!

00:09:07I won't ever let you go.

00:09:14I'm so alone, Daniel.

00:09:18Nobody sees the real people.

00:09:19I see you, Sabrina.

00:09:21I see all of you.

00:09:24And you're never going to be alone again.

00:09:26I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.

00:09:43Yeah, of course, babe.

00:09:44Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.

00:09:46Are you kidding?

00:09:46Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?

00:09:51Oh, there he is!

00:09:52The assistant!

00:09:54I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.

00:09:57How 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 that 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.

00:10:14Don't embarrass me.

00:10:15No, it's fine.

00:10:16I'm sorry.

00:10:17Whoa!

00:10:17You played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?

00:10:21He's not just tough.

00:10:23He's Brett Steele tough.

00:10:24You think, you know?

00:10:25My 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?

00:10:34Yeah.

00:10:35Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.

00:10:38It's fine.

00:10:41It's fine.

00:10:42Just relax, okay?

00:10:44Be nice.

00:10:53Some people never change.

00:10:55But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.

00:11:02Yeah, it's nice.

00:11:04But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the cell.

00:11:08Oh, I'm going to be careful.

00:11:16You all right?

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?

00:11:27Ew.

00:11:27What is this, a soup kitchen?

00:11:29I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets.

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.

00:11:42Oh, babe.

00:11:43For real?

00:11:44Yeah.

00:11:45My makeup line took me all the way to the top.

00:11:49Donovan Cosmetics.

00:11:50Rich.

00:11:51Which 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.

00:12:00Daniel, 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.

00:12:07Please, Mr. Eastwood.

00:12:08My dad won't let me have anything.

00:12:10Lucky for you, Uncle Preston's a little bit of a rebel.

00:12:14So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?

00:12:19My treat.

00:12:20Here we go.

00:12:21What?

00:12:22Oh, you don't have to do that.

00:12:24I don't mind.

00:12:25All of you insist.

00:12:27I mean, I'm already dressed.

00:12:28So.

00:12:30Okay.

00:12:32Oh, and I wouldn't bite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.

00:12:36So.

00:12:37Anyways.

00:12:38Come on, Ben.

00:12:38Let's go.

00:12:40That's great.

00:12:41Gotcha.

00:12:41There we go.

00:12:41Oh, there's Paps.

00:12:46You don't have to come, Daniel.

00:12:48Last time.

00:12:49I promise.

00:12:52You're right.

00:12:54It is the last time.

00:12:56Guys?

00:12:59Hi.

00:13:00Jackson.

00:13:07Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?

00:13:10Contract sign.

00:13:13It's over.

00:13:15Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?

00:13:19I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.

00:13:23Is it 10 years of heartbreak?

00:13:24I don't care if I walk away with nothing.

00:13:26Why would Celeste invite me here?

00:13:46She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.

00:13:49Sabrina Donovan?

00:13:53I could scream.

00:13:54I'm literally obsessed with you.

00:13:56Preston Eastwood.

00:13:57I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.

00:14:00Oh, gee.

00:14:01I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.

00:14:04The scene that I wrote.

00:14:05Uncredited, of course.

00:14:06Even my success is shadowed by her fame.

00:14:09Wait.

00:14:09Are you two dating?

00:14:10Oh, well, actually.

00:14:12This is totally a date.

00:14:13All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.

00:14:22Do 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...

00:14:43Oh, it's okay, babe.

00:14:44We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.

00:14:55This 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.

00:15:17He'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.

00:15:36That is if mom's cool with it.

00:15:39Oh, Preston, I don't know.

00:15:41Daniel, he, you know, he's...

00:15:43Preston, what are you doing?

00:15:44Come on.

00:15:48Let's go, Michelle.

00:16:04Now 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?

00:16:31Oh, fuck, that's not good.

00:16:33I was just doing that for a pussy.

00:16:34I didn't mean for him to see us.

00:16:35Actually, 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.

00:17:05A 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.

00:17:28Daniel, 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!

00:17:46Oh, what a coincidence.

00:17:48We 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.

00:18:09It'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.

00:18:36And clearly she wants you.

00:18:37I'm going to dance this soon.

00:18:39Daniel, wait.

00:18:41I 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.

00:18:51I'm going to go back.

00:18:55Daniel.

00:19:00Let them here.

00:19:01This is.

00:19:02Yeah.

00:19:05Oh.

00:19:07Oh, good.

00:19:08You're up.

00:19:10After dinner, we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.

00:19:15It's fun.

00:19:16Don'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.

00:19:35Listen, Matt.

00:19:35I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.

00:19:40You can trust me.

00:19:43President, I think you're a big cop.

00:19:46You need to go right now.

00:19:47All right.

00:19:50Daniel, seriously, listen, man.

00:19:53When 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?

00:20:12Yeah.

00:20:13My 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.

00:20:25That'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?

00:20:40God.

00:20:41God, 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, I, what?

00:20:55You know what?

00:20:56Fine.

00:20:59You two look great together.

00:21:01Daniel, I,

00:21:14And 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.

00:21:34I was never the homemaker.

00:21:40Please, Daniel.

00:21:41Daniel.

00:21:47I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.

00:22:00If you're sick, can you go in the other room?

00:22:03I 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.

00:22:53You got some.

00:22:59What do you need?

00:22:59Oh, oh.

00:23:00Yeah, there you go.

00:23:02I'd often use some of this shit, but I 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.

00:23:31What's up, Jackson?

00:23:42Mr. Eastwood!

00:23:44I 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.

00:23:55Not to play with them.

00:23:59You never let me do anything!

00:24:02Come on, it'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 bad examples.

00:24:15Yeah?

00:24:16What's that supposed to mean?

00:24:18You're so annoying!

00:24:19Don't push.

00:24:27I 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 servant like you.

00:24:35What the hell?

00:24:36You just shot me.

00:24:37Call 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 heard your son.

00:24:54So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?

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 a pack.

00:25:12Still riding on all your old headlines.

00:25:14How are your latest box office numbers, huh?

00:25:16I heard your agents begging for scraps.

00:25:19I'm a fucking star!

00:25:20A star?

00:25:21A 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!

00:25:35You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.

00:26:01What was that?

00:26:09Daniel!

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, babe.

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.

00:26:24Daniel, 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.

00:26:33Throw 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 Preston attacked me?

00:26:43Maybe I should go.

00:26:44I'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.

00:26:57Yeah.

00:26:58We'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.

00:27:11You did lose a lot of blood,

00:27:40so we're going to have to keep you here overnight

00:27:42to pump you with liquid.

00:27:44To be honest, that's...

00:27:46I could use a break from home.

00:27:47Trouble with the missus?

00:27:51Uh, yeah.

00:27:53Pretty obvious.

00:27:54Most married folks that come in here are miserable.

00:27:57I shouldn't be saying this,

00:28:00but Sabrina Donovan was here.

00:28:03We see Preston Eastwood.

00:28:05True love story holding hands, wiping tears.

00:28:09I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.

00:28:12You said, um, couple?

00:28:15I wasn't sure,

00:28:16but I checked the visitation logs,

00:28:18and it's official!

00:28:19She even helped me reposition Preston

00:28:22when 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...

00:28:35It's my wound.

00:28:37I tore it, actually, um,

00:28:39ten years ago.

00:28:40Daniel!

00:28:41Sweet and caring.

00:28:45So Preston's found the Wi-Fi 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!

00:29:00I'm gonna get my shit out of here.

00:29:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.

00:29:06You once liked my short film.

00:29:07I have a strip I've been sitting on.

00:29:11It needs the right producer.

00:29:19I know it's a long shot,

00:29:20but I'd be honored if you'd read it.

00:29:24Where have you been?

00:29:26I kept calling.

00:29:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.

00:29:30Huh?

00:29:35What?

00:29:35I've been busy.

00:29:36I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.

00:29:40Seriously?

00:29:40Why does it always have to come back to him?

00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.

00:29:46Yeah.

00:29:48That's what you want to call it?

00:29:50I...

00:29:51I just...

00:29:52I'm sorry.

00:29:54I...

00:29:55Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.

00:30:02It is what it is.

00:30:03But I mean...

00:30:05You know how the industry works.

00:30:08You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.

00:30:13And I think you should go for it.

00:30:14I mean, you always do what's best for your career.

00:30:17But...

00:30:18I just...

00:30:19I don't want you to be upset with me.

00:30:24Seriously.

00:30:26I...

00:30:26I care about you.

00:30:31I'm not mad.

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.

00:30:42Since 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.

00:30:58Sabrina, 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...

00:31:06We 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.

00:31:26Me and you.

00:31:27The lead actress and the writer-director.

00:31:30I 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,

00:31:41we 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.

00:31:50I would have melted in her hands.

00:31:52Now 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.

00:32:17Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you,

00:32:20and I'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.

00:32:31I knew it.

00:32:34You are mad that I brought Preston back here.

00:32:37I told you it was just a publicity stunt.

00:32:41God, it'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.

00:33:02Just leave it.

00:33:06I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.

00:33:09And 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 premiere.

00:33:20Let's just talk about this tomorrow.

00:33:37What?

00:33:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?

00:33:40Yeah, ex-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 to meet me.

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.

00:34:14And where is her husband?

00:34:15Maybe she's embarrassed by him.

00:34:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.

00:34:22Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.

00:34:27Come here.

00:34:28Jackson, we were just talking about your mom.

00:34:35Do you know where she is or 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.

00:34:49Oh, I 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.

00:35:43You 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 picked a fight with an A-lister.

00:36:01That'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 I?

00:36:14You were revolting.

00:36:16No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.

00:36:18Hey, how are you watching now?

00:36:22Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.

00:36:26Yeah, maybe I should teach him a lesson.

00:36:28Oh, yeah?

00:36:29What lesson is that, Preston?

00:36:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?

00:36:38I don't know.

00:36:39Oh!

00:36:40Oh!

00:36:48What the hell?

00:36:59What happened?

00:37:01Oh my god!

00:37:02Daniel!

00:37:03What the hell happened?

00:37:05Daniel, 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.

00:37:25No, 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?

00:37:40Sabrina.

00:37:42Oh!

00:37:44Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.

00:37:47I think one of them is broken.

00:37:49Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.

00:37:52But, but Daniel.

00:37:58Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.

00:38:13Mommy, please, we can't leave him.

00:38:16I, I have, I have to help Preston.

00:38:22A magic.

00:38:41Daniel!

00:38:42I got you.

00:38:43Then let me go.

00:38:46She's made her choice.

00:38:48There's no going back.

00:38:48We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.

00:39:02Well, 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.

00:39:16In fact, get out of the country.

00:39:21If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.

00:39:41Don't worry about it. Just try.

00:39:46I used to beg for her approval.

00:40:00Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.

00:40:02Seriously?

00:40:05I'm so bad.

00:40:07I don't know what you're doing.

00:40:09I'm going to call the doctor.

00:40:11Hey.

00:40:14What are you doing? I thought you were hurt.

00:40:16I think I'll pull through.

00:40:17Listen, 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 herself.

00:40:36I can finally have you in this bedroom.

00:40:38What am I doing?

00:40:50Daniel is still injured.

00:40:52He should be home.

00:40:56Sabrina?

00:40:57Listen, get off.

00:41:10What?

00:41:11Babe, we can finally come on.

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.

00:41:21And 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.

00:41:31Even Daniel is pushing us together.

00:41:34What?

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.

00:42:10He didn't come back in, though.

00:42:14Oh, no.

00:42:16God damn it.

00:42:17Where are you?

00:42:18I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.

00:42:25What have I done?

00:42:26Oh, come on, Daniel.

00:42:38Answer me.

00:42:45He's not gone.

00:42:47I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.

00:42:49He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.

00:43:01No.

00:43:05It's not possible.

00:43:07He will be back.

00:43:11No.

01:04:36I begged and pleaded.

01:04:38Stop lying.

01:04:40I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.

01:04:44And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too, to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.

01:04:49My God.

01:04:51You're disgusting.

01:04:52I'm a manager, Daniel.

01:04:54Not anymore.

01:04:55Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?

01:04:59I don't even know who you are anymore.

01:05:03I'm your mother.

01:05:05I only want what's best for you.

01:05:08What's best for me?

01:05:11You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.

01:05:17That all ends today.

01:05:21You're fired.

01:05:23You're fired.

01:05:25No.

01:05:28No.

01:05:29You can't do this to me.

01:05:36Please, please, sweetie.

01:05:37I have dedicated my life to you.

01:05:39You dedicated your life to money and to fame.

01:05:44I was just who you used to get to it.

01:05:47You think you can survive on sheer talent?

01:05:50There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.

01:05:53I made you.

01:05:55You'd be nothing without me.

01:05:56I think she'll do just fine.

01:06:07We're done here, Mom.

01:06:09If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.

01:06:16I've had another word.

01:06:28I have something to say.

01:06:30I'm sorry, Daniel.

01:06:35I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.

01:06:39I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.

01:06:43I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.

01:06:53Apologize to your father.

01:06:55Do I have to?

01:06:56Jackson, who raised you, cared for you, packed your lunches when I was on set, laid with you

01:07:06when you had nightmares, and coddled you when you were sick?

01:07:09He did.

01:07:11He loved you.

01:07:12But you treated him like he was nothing.

01:07:14I was wrong.

01:07:16Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.

01:07:20And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.

01:07:25I'm sorry, Dad.

01:07:30It's going to be okay, son.

01:07:32I love you.

01:07:33Okay.

01:07:35Come on, Jackson.

01:07:36Let's go.

01:07:36Come on.

01:07:43I'm sorry, Daniel.

01:07:45For everything.

01:07:50I know that look, Daniel.

01:07:58You're thinking of going back to them.

01:08:00No.

01:08:03I just didn't know it would be this hard.

01:08:05They hurt you, Daniel.

01:08:08They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.

01:08:15People can change.

01:08:18But that doesn't change the past.

01:08:20And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.

01:08:31Daniel!

01:08:32Daniel!

01:08:33Come here, Daniel!

01:08:34Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for ten years?

01:08:40Yes.

01:08:41I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.

01:08:47But, okay, I'll tell you this.

01:08:48Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.

01:09:00Way to go, John!

01:09:02Thank you so much for considering me for this part.

01:09:23We'll keep in touch.

01:09:24How many more do we have today?

01:09:3240, sir.

01:09:33Jesus.

01:09:34Hey, boy!

01:09:35How are we looking?

01:09:36Still digging?

01:09:38Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.

01:09:40I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.

01:09:45All right, here's the deal.

01:09:46The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.

01:09:50Today?

01:09:51Are you fucking kidding me?

01:09:52That's why I love you, man.

01:09:54Cool under pressure.

01:09:55This movie is gonna blow the roof off.

01:09:58Oh, my God.

01:10:02All right, just bring in the next one.

01:10:03Ah!

01:10:04But that would be...

01:10:06Emily Blake.

01:10:10Emily.

01:10:15Emily.

01:10:16Amazing, as always.

01:10:17You flew in all the way from London for this?

01:10:22Please.

01:10:23I wasn't gonna miss a shot too much for the great Daniel Johnson.

01:10:27How's L.A. treating you?

01:10:29Oh, my God.

01:10:30Less tea, but way more traffic.

01:10:33But I am...

01:10:34I'm glad to be back.

01:10:37Well, it's not English countryside.

01:10:38Yeah.

01:10:39But it suits you.

01:10:42You definitely belong here.

01:10:45I do miss you, though.

01:10:49It was fun.

01:10:50Playing the part.

01:10:52British starlet.

01:10:53American director.

01:10:55I kept waiting for us to become something real.

01:11:00Waiting for us to become something real.

01:11:03I'm sorry, Emily.

01:11:05It just cost me.

01:11:07And we'll call it even.

01:11:09You were amazing, as always.

01:11:12It's just...

01:11:13It's just not quite what I'm looking for.

01:11:17I never was, was I?

01:11:20Anyways.

01:11:22Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.

01:11:25Maybe I'll see you around?

01:11:27Yeah.

01:11:27Give me a copy, and you know what?

01:11:41Go get one for yourself, too.
