00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the best original screenplay at the Rice and Stars
00:16Movie Awards.
00:18You did it.
00:19Three years ago, I was the most sought after screenwriter.
00:25Three years later, I fell in love with Drake.
00:28Giving my identity a secret for the sake of his pride.
00:32I thought we were happy until...
00:38Hi.
00:46Where the hell have you been?
00:48I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday,
00:51and instead of helping us, he just disappeared.
00:54What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?
00:56You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
01:01is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
01:04Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?
01:08What?
01:09A maid?
01:10I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.
01:14Well, I think Drake's idea is great, and it could be really good for us.
01:18But the risk is way too high.
01:22Dad.
01:24Please.
01:27Okay.
01:28And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm a person.
01:32Think about it, Dorothy.
01:38Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
01:40How often does he actually come home?
01:43He doesn't even want to look at you.
01:45Let alone sleep with you.
01:47That's enough, Ellie.
01:49We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.
01:51I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.
01:53Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake
01:57instead of being my late brother's widow.
01:59Ellie!
02:00Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.
02:03Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.
02:10It's the perfect time.
02:14Oh, my God.
02:15Oh, my God.
02:16Dorothy just put Stephanie into the pool.
02:18What?
02:23She's carrying Nick's baby.
02:30Quick, get in there.
02:45He chose Stephanie over me.
02:50My baby.
02:51My baby is gone.
02:54Why would you do this to me?
02:57How dare you?
02:59You push Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby.
03:03Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?
03:05I didn't do it.
03:06I know you don't want me here.
03:08I told you whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past.
03:11You can hate me however you want to,
03:13but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?
03:16He didn't do it.
03:17You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie.
03:19Please apologize to Stephanie.
03:23I'm not going to apologize for something I didn't do.
03:25Apologize to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you.
03:35Divorce.
03:35If you apologize right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance.
03:45It's been three years, Drake.
03:48I gave up everything to be your wife.
03:50I've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.
03:53I already have a life.
03:55And right now I just want to focus on being.
03:58Am I married to Drake?
04:01I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.
04:06The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
04:08is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
04:11Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
04:13He doesn't even want to look at you.
04:18Fine.
04:18Let's get a divorce.
04:28There's nothing left in my heart.
04:31Drake's nothing without me.
04:35My ring!
04:37My ring is gone!
04:39Well, you must have taken it.
04:41Why would I take her ring?
04:42Well, look how quickly you packed your suitcase.
04:44You're probably seeing someone else.
04:47Dorothy.
04:47We were married for three years.
04:52Were you seeing someone else?
04:53Of course she was.
04:54Probably been cheating on you for a really long time.
04:57Couldn't wait for the divorce.
04:59So what if I was, huh?
05:01And what about you?
05:02Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?
05:05What gives you the right to talk about me?
05:07I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.
05:11But you were actually seeing someone else.
05:14Who is he?
05:14Big talk!
05:16Don't bring me down to your level.
05:18I'm not like you.
05:21Since your sister-in-law lost her ring,
05:23why don't you take...
05:27This one.
05:36You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?
05:38And so I left.
05:54This is ridiculous!
05:55We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.
06:01I let him marry my daughter and even invested in his business.
06:05How dare that Drake do this to my daughter?
06:09Look, it's actually good from Dad.
06:13Now we know who he really is and he has no idea who I am.
06:17Still, you're my daughter.
06:19I can't let him do this to you.
06:21If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.
06:24We're gonna pull our investment immediately.
06:26Yes.
06:27It's time to cut him off.
06:29He doesn't deserve you.
06:31I'm over Drake.
06:32If we withdraw the plans now,
06:35it's going to hurt the family business.
06:37He's not worth it.
06:40Honey,
06:42why don't you just take a vacation?
06:45Oh, just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself.
06:49Yeah.
06:52No.
06:56I've wasted too much time with Drake
06:58over the three years.
06:59You know, now I want to focus on something
07:02that actually matters.
07:05You know, Christopher has been saying
07:06that many people want to buy the movie rights to Liar's Game.
07:11Universal, Paramount,
07:13every major studio wants this.
07:18Liar's Game.
07:19Your story on the big screen.
07:21If you're in,
07:22I'd be happy to be the one headlining you.
07:24Ah.
07:25So that's why they're making it.
07:26Because of you.
07:28I'm sorry, Christopher Santoro.
07:30See?
07:31They're not funding the film.
07:33They're funding you.
07:34Wrong.
07:36They're funding the story.
07:37It's more than good.
07:39It's phenomenal.
07:41Christopher is right.
07:44I'm taking my life back.
07:46I'm taking my life back.
07:49I'm going to adapt to myself.
07:52You are?
07:53Yes.
07:55I will.
07:57Good for you.
07:59I won't tell anyone I'm asking you.
08:10Congratulations to Aria Wong
08:12for winning the Best Director.
08:13This is my close friend from college.
08:21Aria, I need your help.
08:23I want to adapt the Liar's Game myself.
08:25And I want you to direct it.
08:28Of course.
08:30All right.
08:31Okay.
08:32There's just one thing.
08:33I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:37I don't want anyone to know.
08:40Especially not the team.
08:41SQ.
08:42Are you sure?
08:43But why keep it a secret?
08:45I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:49Got it.
08:49Your secret's safe with me.
08:51Hey.
08:53Oh my God.
08:57Dave.
08:58It's a bit weird.
09:00Ever since news got out about our movie,
09:03my phone has not stopped ringing.
09:05Really?
09:12It's Stephanie.
09:12Yeah, just take it.
09:21Hello?
09:22Hello, Miss Wong.
09:24I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.
09:26I'm interested in playing the lead.
09:28Can we arrange an audition?
09:28I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.
09:35Thank you, Miss Wong.
09:38What do you think?
09:41Anyone can audition, right?
09:43As long as they're right for the role.
09:46What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...
09:49Okay.
09:51I'll call her back and let her know.
09:54Mm-hmm.
10:03What about me?
10:07Can I be your hero?
10:08Oh, you mean, uh, a film, right?
10:17I've never considered anyone else.
10:20I have to take this.
10:25Hi.
10:30You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.
10:35It's okay.
10:37I can wait.
10:40I've waited this long.
10:41Well, well, well.
10:47Look who it is.
10:51Why are you here?
10:53Oh, I see.
10:54You're the production assistant.
10:57Well, do your job.
10:59Get me a water.
11:02Stephanie.
11:04Get your own water.
11:05I'm not your PA.
11:07Look.
11:08It's my first day on set
11:10and I want to buy coffee for the crew.
11:12Why don't you be a doll
11:13and mark down everyone's order?
11:16Are you deaf?
11:17I'm not a PA.
11:20Here's your tip.
11:22Go on.
11:23Show some respect, Stephanie.
11:26Do you know who she is?
11:29What were you doing?
11:31Oh, no.
11:32She can't know I'm asking you.
11:37I want to keep my identity as the writer.
11:39It's a secret.
11:40I don't want anyone to know,
11:42especially not the team.
11:47What do you mean?
11:49Who is she?
11:52No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.
11:54Isn't that right?
11:59Well, actually, she's...
12:00She's...
12:03She's...
12:04Just a PA.
12:05You're right.
12:08So why don't you show me a lower PA?
12:11Your acting skills.
12:12Maybe I'll be impressed even by who the coffee's myself.
12:16Watch this.
12:17I loved you once.
12:24Or so I thought.
12:27But now I see that it was all just a lie.
12:31A beautiful...
12:33Painful lie.
12:36You took everything from me.
12:43My dreams.
12:45My future.
12:50See?
12:51There's no soul.
12:53That's not acting.
12:54It's just...
12:54Reciting lines.
12:58Why don't you show her how it's done?
12:59What?
13:01Go on.
13:05Go on.
13:26I loved you once.
13:29So I thought.
13:33But now I can see.
13:35It was all a lie.
13:37A beautiful, painful lie.
13:42You took everything from me.
13:46My heart.
13:49My dreams.
13:51My future.
13:54And for what?
13:55For your own personal gains.
13:59How is that possible?
14:12Dorothy.
14:13That was perfect.
14:15The role is yours if you want it.
14:18No!
14:20This role is mine!
14:22I'd do well with the investment.
14:24Without me, there's no funding for this movie.
14:26Your investment?
14:27Do you even know who she is?
14:30Who is she?
14:36Who is she?
14:37As you know, no one but a PA.
14:40Dorothy.
14:41This movie is important to Stephanie.
14:44I mean, why are you here?
14:45You're not a real actress.
14:46What are you doing?
14:47You're trying to ruin her career.
14:48You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career.
14:50I'm not ruining anything.
14:52If she can't handle the role, that's on her, not me.
14:56You can't blame this on anyone else.
14:58You embarrassed her in front of everyone.
15:00I mean, I know what you're doing.
15:02You're the one pulling all the strings here.
15:03You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.
15:06She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake.
15:09She's been jealous from the start.
15:10Trying to ruin my chance just to get back to you.
15:13Okay, no.
15:14I don't want to fight anymore.
15:14Well, let's just take a look at the script so maybe we can work something out.
15:18And you were just so damn selfish.
15:23You only care about yourself.
15:25Just give Stephanie her role back.
15:27You know what?
15:30I didn't want to do this.
15:31But I will.
15:33I'll take the role.
15:35I'll play the lead.
15:39I'll play the lead.
15:40No way.
15:41You can't be serious.
15:42She's not even a real actress.
15:44Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours.
15:49Everyone in the room can see it.
15:54I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.
15:58Right.
15:58It's settled then.
16:00The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.
16:04I will double my investment
16:06if you give Stephanie a role.
16:09I never thought I'd see the day my ex-husband would go this far
16:17for his sister-in-law.
16:19I can always count on you, right?
16:25I will double my investment
16:27if you give a role to Stephanie.
16:29You two look as such.
16:30Okay, look.
16:35If the money's on the table,
16:37there's no reason to turn it down.
16:38Let's just leave her apart.
16:41We have nothing to lose.
16:42I guess that'll be fine.
16:45I'll talk to SQ.
16:52Your father's production company
16:53is already the biggest investor in your movie.
16:56So why take Drake's money?
16:57You don't...
16:57You still have feelings for Drake.
17:00No.
17:02He's an asshole.
17:05Come on.
17:06I've got an idea.
17:09Why don't we just give her a character
17:11that'll make her miserable?
17:15Wow, Mr. Sontaro.
17:17I feel bad now.
17:23I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.
17:26How did she learn herself the role?
17:31She's practically a nobody.
17:33No fan base, no real experience.
17:35Just one good scene.
17:37Doesn't make sense.
17:41Find out everything you can about Dorothy.
17:43I want all the dirt.
17:52Director, there must be a mistake.
17:54I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.
17:56You wanted a role, we gave you a role.
18:00I came in with an investment.
18:04Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.
18:09Even a small role in SQ's film is going to do great things for your career.
18:12Now is not the time for you to be messing around.
18:17Fine.
18:17Two, take one.
18:25Action.
18:27Lily, you are my best friend.
18:28How could you do this to me?
18:29I'm sorry, but this is...
18:31What the hell are you doing?
18:35It's part of the scene!
18:41Okay, take it again from the slap.
18:43Action.
18:44Oh!
18:45Cut!
18:50Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines?
18:53You have to keep going in the scene.
18:56I think you've had enough for today.
18:58We'll just try again tomorrow.
19:07Did you see her face?
19:09Absolute gold.
19:11I mean, she got what she wanted.
19:12She asked for a role and that's what we gave her.
19:15So...
19:15Seriously, her performance is all over the place.
19:19Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.
19:23We all know the film's better without her slowing us down.
19:26You're right.
19:29I'm not going to let anyone ruin your story.
19:31So, if you can just give me something that's a bit more...
19:39Tell me about her job.
19:42What's going on with my scenes?
19:49Why have so many of them been cut?
19:52It's a collective decision.
19:54Fuck that.
19:56Let me talk to the writer.
19:58The writer is SQ and as you know, they never show their face.
20:01So, their decision is final.
20:03I'll see you on set in five.
20:07Now it all makes sense.
20:21That's the head of the production company.
20:32No wonder she got the role.
20:34Let's see how John's wife feels about that.
20:37Everyone, I have an announcement to make.
20:48Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.
20:56You really think I don't see through your little games?
20:59Somebody will be walking out that door today.
21:01But it won't be me.
21:04You really think you can get away with this?
21:07Sleeping your way up?
21:12John's wife is on her way.
21:13Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.
21:16Slut.
21:21That's enough!
21:25So, were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?
21:29What?
21:30Scared the truth is going to come out.
21:32Someone had to expose her for who she really is.
21:35So, you admitted.
21:37You did it.
21:38Damn right I did.
21:39And I'd do it again if I had to.
21:43You don't know who you just crossed!
21:45Oh, I know.
21:47Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.
21:50I sent those photos to your wife, too.
21:52And now your mistress is about to be exposed.
21:56Yeah.
21:57Security.
21:58Stephanie is banned from the studio.
22:01Make sure she never sets foot here again.
22:03You can't just do that.
22:05Oh, this is insane.
22:06What?
22:06I'm right.
22:07I was only telling you the truth.
22:09She is a mistress.
22:10A loose woman.
22:11A lady with a knife.
22:12Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:22Otherwise, why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?
22:26That's unbelievable.
22:28And he humiliated me.
22:30He had me dragged off the set like a criminal.
22:32You should have seen it.
22:33I'm not going to let her just ruin her reputation like this.
22:38I mean, this whole mess is just making us look like fools.
22:42Dorothy's always been trouble.
22:44I mean, first she goes off with a married man and now this.
22:48I don't know how you put up with her for three years.
22:51You should have got a divorce earlier.
22:53Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:59It's the only explanation.
23:01She's clearly nothing but a slut.
23:03Oh!
23:05Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.
23:09Now, you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.
23:13Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?
23:16She was sleeping her way to the top,
23:19killing Stephanie's unborn child.
23:21And John, dragging her off the set.
23:24You should be sticking up for Stephanie.
23:30I'm not going to let her do this to you.
23:46Do you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?
23:49I didn't walk away from anything.
23:50You did.
23:52You chose Stephanie over me.
23:54Remember this one?
23:54Oh, she's my sister-in-law.
23:56I'm so sick of hearing this.
23:59You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it.
24:02You're out of your mind if you think I'm going to let you get away with this.
24:05You do what you want to do.
24:08But for now, get out!
24:11Why?
24:11We were married for three years.
24:19And we never...
24:20Well, your dear fuck!
24:21You might let go of it!
24:22No wonder you want me to go.
24:33I...
24:34Just look at yourself.
24:37You're not half the man Christopher is.
24:40Get out.
24:42Or I will call the cops.
24:45Just go!
24:46Are you okay?
25:00Dorothy?
25:02Yeah?
25:02Remember, safety first.
25:04The lifeguard's right there if you need him.
25:07Okay.
25:10Anything you need, let the AD know.
25:12Okay, got it.
25:13Got it.
25:14Yeah?
25:22Here's a coffee for you.
25:24It's still early before the shoot.
25:26Take your time.
25:42Take your time.
25:51Bye.

30:17random actress

30:53This must be Dorothy and John forcing S.Q. to cut me out.
30:58They won't get away with this.
31:04Trey, can you believe this? They've completely written me out of the script!
31:09Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
31:12You promised him you'd look after me!
31:15I've already lost my husband and my baby! I can't lose my career too!
31:19Don't worry. I'll get you your character back.
31:23There's a tape of a documentary that apparently S.Q. has always wanted.

31:46Should be able to get you your rollback.

31:59Legendary screenwriter Margaret Lane.

32:03What's she doing here?
32:07I don't know. I'm not gonna let her win this.
32:1260,000!
32:1370,000.
32:18100,000.
32:21This is my grandmother's documentary. It's her legacy.

32:31I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.
32:33500,000.

32:54Ladies and gentlemen.

32:58Standing at a whopping 500,000.
33:01500,000 going once.
33:04500,000 going twice.
33:07Sold.
33:09Sold.
33:10To the lady in the blue dress.
33:19I can't believe this.
33:21You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:28You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:33What's going on?
33:39Ladies and gentlemen.
33:42I've just been informed.
33:43Miss Dorothy is in fact not an invited guest.
33:47Therefore, as per our rules,
33:50this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.
33:54This is ridiculous. I was invited.
33:56Well, in that case.
33:59May I see your invitation?
34:06I did have it. I swear.
34:07I swear.
34:08I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.
34:09If you do not have the invitation at hand,
34:11the documentary reel has to go to the second highest bidder.
34:13This is the protocol.
34:14Oh, I don't understand.
34:16I'm sorry.
34:17I'm sorry.
34:36I'm sorry.
34:37These are the rules.
34:38The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.
34:47Stephanie, wait.
34:48Just sell it to me.
34:49Name your price.
34:50I'll pay you anything you want.
34:51It's really important to me, please.
34:52Why are you doing this?
34:53Are you just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants?
34:57No, you don't understand.
34:58Just let me buy this.
34:59Whatever it takes.
35:00Dorothy.
35:01You think this is about money?
35:02Please.
35:03Please.
35:04This isn't something you can just buy.
35:05Dorothy.
35:06What the hell are you doing?
35:07Why are you doing this?
35:08You think this is about money?
35:09Please.
35:10This isn't something you can just buy.
35:11Dorothy.
35:12Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:13This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:14She can use this to help her career.
35:15Her career?
35:16Is this about your role?
35:17I'm just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants.
35:18I'm just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants.
35:19No, you don't understand.
35:20Just let me buy this.
35:21Whatever it takes.
35:22Dorothy.
35:23You think this is about money?
35:25Please.
35:26This isn't something you can just buy.
35:27Dorothy.
35:28What the hell are you doing?
35:29Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:31Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:32This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:33She can use this to help her career.
35:34Her career?
35:36Is this about your role being cut from the head?
35:39Is that why you're doing this?
35:44I'm the writer.
35:45I'm going to fix this.
35:46I'm going to write the story.
35:47I'm going to bring your character back.
35:48Just let me have the reel of this.
35:49You're the writer.
35:50Are you telling me that you're the real person?
35:51I'm going to get the real person.
35:53I'm going to get the real person.
35:54You're the writer.
35:56I'm going to get the real person.
35:57I'm going to get the real person.
35:59Are you telling me that you're SQ?
36:05You, the writer SQ, can you give us a break?
36:09Look, this reel is important to Stephanie. End it. Don't make this harder than it has to be.
36:17You've been with Dorothy for so long, and you don't even know her!
36:20Oh, and you do!
36:21A hell of a lot more than you!
36:22Who the fuck do you think you are?
36:24Both of you, calm down!
36:29What?
36:39Scratched! All over! It's ruined! Not even fit to be a gift anymore!
36:44I can fix this. Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it. Just sell it to me, please. Just name your price.
36:52Even if I had no use for it, I'd never give it to you.
36:59I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:01I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:02This reel has more than that.
37:03I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:04This reel has more than that.
37:05I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:09This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:10Really?
37:11Hmm. An entire world I've captured. But it's just one way.
37:12I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:16This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:17Really?
37:18Hmm. An entire world I've captured. But it's just one way of seeing things. The magic is creating
37:23it yourself. Someday you will.
37:24I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:29This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:34Really?
37:35Hmm. An entire world I've captured. But it's just one way of seeing things. The magic is creating it yourself. Someday you will.
37:46You will.
37:47You will.
37:48You will.
37:49You will.
37:50You will.
37:51You will.
37:52You will.
37:53You will.
37:54You will.
37:55You will.
37:56Dorothy.
37:57I need you to go apologize to Stephanie and give her her role back.
38:02Apologize? To her? She destroyed the reel.
38:06And she wouldn't have done that if you hadn't pushed her.
38:09So go apologize or I'm pulling my funding.
38:15Look, Dorothy. Let's be real here. Without Stephanie, Barry's going to invest.
38:24Even the production company will call out if they hear that she's not involved anymore. Her name carries weight.
38:29Let's not pretend that your reputation is exactly stellar right now. Christopher's fans hate you. Stephanie's fans hate you.
38:36Even if you actually make this film, no one's going to support you. You will be Barry.
38:43If you apologize to Stephanie even now, I can help you. I can control the press. I can control the narrative. I can actually give you a chance.
38:55What's so funny?
39:01What's so funny?
39:03Pull your funding? Do it. You'll see it does nothing for the movie.
39:08Okay. So what if I tell the production head to pull his funding too? Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?
39:15No. Go ahead. Try it.
39:19You want me to call?
39:21Mm-hmm.
39:22Fine.
39:23Hi, Mr. Bennett. It's Drake. Drake Mossbacher. Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liar's Game and I suggest that you do the same thing. I've seen it and it's a sinking ship.
39:35Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. You're pulling up? Great. I'll take full control of the investment. Not a problem.
39:45So you sat with him?
39:53That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?
39:58Is this how you see me?
39:59The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?
40:01What other explanation do you have?
40:04You know nothing about Dorothy.
40:09Apologize to Stephanie, cut ties with Mr. Bennett and end this.
40:13Dorothy, come back to me. Whatever he's offering you will match it, I'll double it.
40:17You must be ill to your fucking mind.
40:20What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?
40:24Living hell?
40:25You heard me!
40:26Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.
40:30You made me believe you loved me.
40:33And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.
40:37You said you always protect me, but then when I need you the most...
40:40You just turned your back on me.
40:44You chose your sister-in-law over your wife.
40:50I've had enough, Drake.
40:51You were my prison.
40:53So just go back to your precious Stephanie.
41:00Let's just go.
41:01Why are you hurt?
41:11Are you okay?
41:20What are you, Steph? What are you doing?
41:21Well you want me, don't you?
41:22Just kiss me, I'm all yours.
41:23Steph!
41:25You're Nick's wife.
41:26I've always told you you're like a sister.
41:29Sister?
41:31Funny.
41:32Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?
41:35Don't you remember what you said?
41:38Remember this?
41:39Yeah, why not marry Stephanie?
41:42God.
41:43You were practically begging me not to marry Nick.
41:45No, I shouldn't have said that. I shouldn't have said that.
41:47I don't see that.
41:50What's that?
41:52Oh, it's nothing.
41:53No, what is that?
41:54No, Drake, no.
41:55Please.
41:58You lied about this.
42:02You lied about this.
42:06You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water, but this shows you shoving her in.
42:11It's a glitch.
42:13A glitch.
42:14So, do you actually expect me to believe that?
42:17What's this?
42:18Buying pills off the black market.
42:23Terminate your pregnancy.
42:25It was you.
42:26It was time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat and she was innocent the whole time.
42:31Please, no, you have to believe me.
42:33I didn't-
42:34You know what? I've always thought of you like a sister.
42:36And I've always taken care of you.
42:37I even thought that I loved you once, but that was before you were Nick's wife.
42:43You've changed.
42:44You're not the person I thought you were.
42:46I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty, as Nick's brother, to look after his widow.
42:58I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, huh?
43:02What does that mean?
43:04You're just going to throw me away?
43:05I'm not going to throw you away.
43:07I'm not going to throw you away.
43:08But this is my house.
43:11I want to back. I hope you'll be gone.
43:14But you can't just walk away from me like that.
43:16I've said everything that I need to say.
43:18Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.
43:25Dorothy, this is all your fault.
43:28Fault.
43:32Let's take this bitch down.
43:46Do you want to say please?
43:51No.
43:53I was wrong.
43:56I misunderstood everything about you and about us.
44:03Can you please just hear me out?
44:05You think you can just come here and apologise?
44:08After everything?
44:10I didn't mean to hurt you.
44:13Look, I understand what I did, but it was just because it was definitely an anyone.
44:17Can you please just forgive me?
44:19I don't need your apology, Drake.
44:22You let me down.
44:24You abandoned me.
44:26And I needed you the most.
44:28You used me.
44:30Manipulated me.
44:32And now you beg for my forgiveness?
44:34Oh God, please just don't shut me out.
44:36I can fix this.
44:38I can fix it.
44:39I can do anything Dorothy, please.
44:41No.
44:43You were never the person I thought you were.
44:46No.
44:47And I'm not either.
44:49I've moved on.
44:52I don't need you.
44:57Not like I used to.
44:59Just stay back.
45:01After everything.
45:02Yeah, that's it.
45:03I just have better than this.
45:17Before you all celebrate this movie,
45:45there's something you should know.
45:47Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.
45:50What's going on?
45:52A glorified mistress who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress
45:56when all she's really done is ruin lives.
46:01This is to Dorothy. We're involved with a married man.
46:04What's your response to Stephanie's claim?
46:09This is ridiculous.
46:11Let's talk about how she got here, shall we?
46:14She didn't get here off her talent.
46:16Oh, no. She got here by clinging to powerful men.
46:21No real experience. No skill.
46:23Just a man's name and a man's money.
46:26Security! Get her out of here!
46:28Wait. If she has something to say, let's hear it.
46:32Dorothy, it's a trap.
46:34I'm not afraid of the truth.
46:36Let's see what she's got.
46:42What's going on?
46:43So tell us, Dorothy. How did you get here?
46:47Did you use your relationship with John Bennett to land the part?
46:51A homework, are you saying?
47:08Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?
47:12You're the one who sent me this photo, right?
47:14How about you take another one?
47:16This time, of my lovely family of three.
47:19Dorothy. Dorothy. Dorothy.
47:20Dorothy.
47:21Are you really John Bennett's daughter?
47:22Yes.
47:23I bet you never ask for a last name.
47:25It's Bennett's, by the way.
47:29So Dorothy is the producer's daughter.
47:31Dorothy, so did you use your father to get the part?
47:35Aha. So it's just nepotism, then.
47:43Well, even if she didn't fuck her way to the top,
47:45she still only got here through her connections.
47:47Whether you like it or not, my performance speaks for itself.
47:50And everyone here saw it.
47:52She was actually really good.
47:53Yeah, she handled the novels.
47:55Oh, are you saying that everyone here is wrong?
47:57You think you're so clever, don't you?
48:00Fine. You can act a little bit.
48:03A little bit.
48:04But let's be real.
48:05You didn't land this role on your own.
48:07You just snapped your bony little fingers
48:09and let Daddy give you a role.
48:11How else would a nobody like you
48:13have landed yourself the lead otherwise?
48:15Dorothy isn't just a nobody.
48:20She wrote Liar's Game.
48:23She is SQ.
48:28Dorothy is SQ.
48:30How can that be possible?
48:32Liar's Game is a masterpiece.
48:33There's no way you could have written it.
48:35You don't have to believe me.
48:37Just let the credit speak for itself.
48:42How can this be true?
48:49Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer
48:51and the famous writer SQ.
48:53Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:58Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
49:00Stephanie Marsbecker, Linda Marsbecker and Ellie Marsbecker
49:03I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.
49:05No, no, no, no.
49:06I didn't do anything wrong.
49:07This was all Stephanie's idea.
49:08I didn't do anything.
49:09I didn't do anything.
49:17This whole time she was actually telling the truth.
49:21Dorothy's SQ.
49:23She cheated.
49:24That's why she always had a book in her hand.
49:30Always writing something on her laptop.
49:32Always lost in her thoughts.
49:36Didn't you ever see her?
49:39Guess I was blind all along.
49:43I don't deserve that.
49:44I've missed this place.
50:06Don't you remember?
50:08Of course I do.
50:09We saw so many films here.
50:11We would just stay in our seats and talk.
50:16About life and everything.
50:19But you just made me feel like I could face
50:22anything really.
50:26God, I used to be so nervous back then.
50:29About everything.
50:31About the future.
50:34But you just made me feel like I could face
50:37anything really.
50:39No.
50:41Someone had to be there to make sure you didn't
50:42overthink everything.
50:44I remember you used to unpick every little detail
50:46like it was a life or death situation.
50:53You know Dorothy.
50:56Life's not been the same without you.
50:58Even when we parted ways, I...
51:05I always knew that we would find each other again.
51:10I don't care what we've been through.
51:12I don't care what's happened.
51:14All I know...
51:17Is that I need you now.
51:20More than ever.
51:21More than ever.
51:35And the award for Best Adapted Screenplay goes to...
51:39Dorothy Bennett with Liar's Game.
51:41Liar's Game!
51:45Wow.
51:47Best screenplay.
51:49Shall I start calling you Your Majesty?
51:51I think that's the greatest idea.
51:53Why don't I start now?
51:56You deserve this.
51:58Your Majesty.
52:00Every bit of it.
52:02Now.
52:04Since you've won, I think this calls for a reward.
52:06Oh yeah?
52:08And what would that be?
52:12Me.
