00:00:00And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:06That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:09Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:13Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:18Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:22I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:27Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:32You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:37Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:41If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:49I'll always love my son. He's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:00:54You still worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:00:55That was a long time ago.
00:00:58America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:01All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:04With her career standing by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:08You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:11She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her.
00:01:16So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:18I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:21And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:24If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:29This was the last one.
00:01:32Mom, Daniel.
00:01:35What's going on?
00:01:38What's going on?
00:01:39Honey!
00:01:40I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum if the paparazzi catch him next to you.
00:01:47But I need to go. I have an appointment with you, Silas.
00:01:51Think about it, Daniel.
00:01:55Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, then I will be free.
00:02:01Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:02Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:05I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:09I saw Preston was there.
00:02:11I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:02:14I mean, we owe him.
00:02:15Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:19I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:21Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:22But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:02:24No! I want to eat now!
00:02:26Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:02:37He doesn't listen.
00:02:38Daniel, please.
00:02:39I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that I got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:02:44Ugh.
00:02:45I got something I need to tell you.
00:02:46I'm going to get quick.
00:02:47This isn't easy, but I know.
00:02:49No, what is this?
00:02:50It's mom's vegetable and quinoa spoon.
00:02:52I don't want healthy food.
00:02:53I want chicken nuggets.
00:02:54Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:02:55You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:02:58But I want them.
00:03:00Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:03You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:12I waited. I gave everything I had.
00:03:16But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:03:18And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with a man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:03:23Enough. Just enough.
00:03:25I want a divorce.
00:03:31I want a divorce.
00:03:36Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:03:38No.
00:03:40I want a...
00:03:42I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:44Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:45Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:03:49Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:03:55Seriously?
00:03:56Your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:03:59I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:01What is this?
00:04:02Another contract?
00:04:04How big is the role?
00:04:06Who's directing?
00:04:07It's not a...
00:04:07Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:04:12Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:04:15I have that red carpet event coming up.
00:04:17And I really need you to pull your weight.
00:04:19Pull my weight?
00:04:20Yeah, you get it.
00:04:23Love you.
00:04:23I've devoted myself to this family for 10 long years.
00:04:27If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:04:29Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:04:38The movie's greenlit and the studio wants you to direct.
00:04:40We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:04:42I can't.
00:04:43My wife needs me here in LA.
00:04:45After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:04:51At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:04:54I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:04:57Hey, mom.
00:04:57How you doing?
00:04:58Oh, good, dear.
00:05:00I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:05:03Do you need more?
00:05:04No, no, no, no.
00:05:04You've already done so much.
00:05:06I'm just trying to help.
00:05:07I know.
00:05:08But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:05:11I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:05:18I am, mom.
00:05:19And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:05:25That's wonderful, dear.
00:05:27You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:05:29Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:05:30I gotta go.
00:05:31How is it, mom?
00:05:35Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:05:38Our favorite leading man.
00:05:39Come on.
00:05:40Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:05:52Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:05:54All right, cut.
00:06:01That's a wrap, everyone.
00:06:03We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:06:06Sabrina was a rising star.
00:06:08I was just the director's assistant.
00:06:11Our future's ahead of us.
00:06:12If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:06:17Destroy me.
00:06:44What is that?
00:06:45Is that the one?
00:06:57Sabrina, don't!
00:06:59Stay back.
00:07:00I mean it.
00:07:02Sabrina, don't do this.
00:07:04Just...
00:07:06Just give me your hand.
00:07:08No!
00:07:18No!
00:07:20Daniel!
00:07:21I got you.
00:07:22No!
00:07:23No, let me go!
00:07:24I won't ever let you go.
00:07:30I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:07:33Nobody sees around me.
00:07:34I see you, Sabrina.
00:07:35I see all of you.
00:07:37And you're never going to be alone again.
00:07:46Good to see ya!
00:07:47Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:07:49Oh, too long.
00:07:49What's you?
00:07:51Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:07:53Yeah, of course, babe.
00:07:54Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:07:56Are you kidding?
00:07:56Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:08:00Oh, there he is!
00:08:01The assistant!
00:08:02I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:08:05How does someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:08:09Stop!
00:08:10I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:08:15Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having a stay over.
00:08:18Daniel!
00:08:19Oh.
00:08:19Don't embarrass me.
00:08:20No, it's fine.
00:08:21Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:08:25He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you fan kiddo?
00:08:28My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch you.
00:08:30He doesn't let me do anything.
00:08:31Now that I'm here, we'll be able to have Ben some of dad's rules.
00:08:34What do you say?
00:08:35Huh?
00:08:35Yeah.
00:08:36Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:08:39That's fine.
00:08:40That's fine.
00:08:42Just relax, okay?
00:08:43Be nice.
00:08:51Some people never change.
00:08:52But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:08:58Yeah, it's nice.
00:09:00But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:09:08Oh, careful.
00:09:10You alright?
00:09:12I'm still starving.
00:09:14Make me some food.
00:09:15Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:09:17Stew?
00:09:18Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:09:20I told you a hundred times, I want chicken nuggets!
00:09:23If the kid wants nuggets, just get him nuggets.
00:09:25I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:09:28Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:09:31Okay?
00:09:32For real?
00:09:33Yeah.
00:09:33My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:09:36Donovan Cosmetics.
00:09:38I'm rich.
00:09:39Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:09:42I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:09:46See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:09:47You're so caught upon the morals.
00:09:48You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:09:50They were so dull.
00:09:51Please, Mr. Eastwood, my cat won't let me have anything.
00:09:53Anything for you, Uncle Preston, it's a little bit of a rebel.
00:09:57So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:10:01My treat.
00:10:02Here we go.
00:10:03What?
00:10:03Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:10:05I don't mind.
00:10:06All of you insist.
00:10:07I mean, I'm already dressed, so.
00:10:10Okay.
00:10:11Oh, and I would invite you to Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress code.
00:10:15So, anyways.
00:10:16Come on, baby, let's go.
00:10:18That's great.
00:10:18Gotcha.
00:10:19There we go.
00:10:19Oh, there's the cops.
00:10:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:10:24Last time.
00:10:26I promise.
00:10:28You're right.
00:10:29It is the last time.
00:10:31Guys.
00:10:33Bye.
00:10:34Yes.
00:10:40Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:10:43I'm right, son.
00:10:45It's over.
00:10:45Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:10:50I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:10:53The 10 years of heartbreak?
00:10:54I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:10:56Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:11:12She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:11:17Sabria Donovan?
00:11:18I could scream.
00:11:19I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:11:20That's Denise Wood.
00:11:21I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking Ice.
00:11:23Oh, gee, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:11:26The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:11:29Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:11:31Wait, are you two dating?
00:11:32Oh, well, actually, it's totally a date.
00:11:35All these years, I couldn't even be seeing that they're in public.
00:11:41Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:11:43They're not really a part of my brand.
00:11:45Your brand?
00:11:46It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:11:48You get it, right?
00:11:49So, you two are a thing?
00:11:58Well, I...
00:11:58Oh, it's okay, babe.
00:11:59We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:12:01This is so going viral.
00:12:10I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:12:11God, it looks like more than dating.
00:12:13Is this your son?
00:12:14I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:12:17Don't be silly.
00:12:18You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:12:20That's what all the boys at school say.
00:12:21He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:12:24But Preston is awesome.
00:12:26He's an action spy.
00:12:28I wish he was my dad.
00:12:29My own son doesn't respect me.
00:12:32But 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.
00:12:37It's okay, buddy.
00:12:38Every spy is a partner in crime.
00:12:40If you won't be around, I'm in.
00:12:42That is if mom's cool with it.
00:12:44Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:12:45Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:12:48Preston, what are you doing?
00:12:51Come on.
00:12:52Let's get him to show.
00:12:52Come on.
00:12:59Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:13:09I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:13:11Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:13:17Daniel!
00:13:17You know, it's probably for the best.
00:13:20From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:13:24Daniel, he's here?
00:13:25Did he see us?
00:13:26Is he looking over here?
00:13:27Fuck, that's not good.
00:13:28I was just doing it for Felicia.
00:13:29It didn't mean for him to see us.
00:13:31Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:13:32Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:13:35Who cares about him, mommy?
00:13:37Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:13:38That's enough.
00:13:40What do I do?
00:13:42Well, that's it then.
00:13:44Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:13:45I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:13:48I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:13:51You're really good at that.
00:13:52Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:13:55A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:14:00I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch a bad press about the Donovans,
00:14:04I will come after you with everything I got.
00:14:06Daniel loves me.
00:14:07He has to understand.
00:14:09This is Hollywood.
00:14:09It's just part of the job.
00:14:10Daniel, I can explain.
00:14:18Daniel, what is this?
00:14:21I can't let her create a public scene.
00:14:23All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:14:25Are you going somewhere?
00:14:27Honey, what a coincidence.
00:14:30We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:14:32Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:14:34A vacation?
00:14:34A vacation?
00:14:34Final.
00:14:35You're paying attention.
00:14:37Yeah.
00:14:38I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:14:39Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:14:41What are we supposed to do without you?
00:14:42Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:14:44That's not what I meant.
00:14:45Whoa.
00:14:45Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:14:47That's fine.
00:14:48Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:14:51Just like any good husband would.
00:14:52Oh, I see.
00:14:53Is it me?
00:14:54Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:14:56I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:14:58I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:15:00You know what?
00:15:00Maybe I should go.
00:15:01I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:15:03No, please, Faye.
00:15:04I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:15:07No, you know what?
00:15:07I'll go.
00:15:09And clearly she wants you.
00:15:10Going to test this soon.
00:15:11Daniel, wait.
00:15:13I won't ever let you go.
00:15:15He won't leave.
00:15:16He promised.
00:15:17It doesn't have to be like this.
00:15:19We can pull up a chair and we can...
00:15:21I'm going to go back.
00:15:25Daniel!
00:15:25Oh, good.
00:15:36You're up.
00:15:37Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:15:41It's fun.
00:15:43Don't look at me like that.
00:15:44I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:15:46Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:15:50How lucky for him.
00:15:51He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:15:53Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:15:57Listen, man.
00:15:58I have had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:16:02You can trust me.
00:16:04Preston, I think you're a little bit wrong.
00:16:06You need to let me out.
00:16:07All right.
00:16:10Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:16:12When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:16:16I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:16:19Just ignore him.
00:16:20He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:16:21No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:16:24Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:16:26Jealous?
00:16:28My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:16:31Okay, I'm going to bed.
00:16:34You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:16:40That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:16:45Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:16:49Oh, my God.
00:16:51God, you're unbelievable.
00:16:55Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:16:59No, it's not like that.
00:17:00I...
00:17:00What?
00:17:03You know what?
00:17:03Fine.
00:17:05You two look great together.
00:17:07Daniel, I...
00:17:08I need to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:17:23Um...
00:17:24I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:17:31Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:17:33I was never the homemaker.
00:17:39Please, Daniel.
00:17:49I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:17:53Here, Sid.
00:17:56Can you go in the other room?
00:17:58I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:18:10Look at her now.
00:18:12Playing house for another man.
00:18:13If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:18:17There he is.
00:18:32God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:18:35Man.
00:18:35No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:18:38Life of a male listener, I guess.
00:18:41I got some.
00:18:42Yeah.
00:18:43What do you mean?
00:18:44Oh, oh.
00:18:44Yeah, there you go.
00:18:45I don't need some of this shit, but...
00:18:47I know you'll like it.
00:18:48Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:18:50Pulling up for a new Marvel movie!
00:18:54Hey, uh...
00:18:55You're not pissed off that your wife ended up carrying me last night, right?
00:18:59No?
00:19:00A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:19:02Why would I be threatened by that?
00:19:06It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:19:09Shhh.
00:19:15It's a shame, huh?
00:19:16You know what?
00:19:17Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:19:18Here we go.
00:19:19Ooh.
00:19:20No, it's not to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me.
00:19:23And it's unfair.
00:19:24That's a shame, huh?
00:19:25You know what?
00:19:25Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:19:26Here we go.
00:19:28Ooh.
00:19:29No!
00:19:30Not to play with that.
00:19:32You never let me do anything!
00:19:35Come on.
00:19:35It's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:19:37You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:19:39It's only about the money.
00:19:40It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:19:42Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:19:45Yeah?
00:19:46What's that supposed to mean?
00:19:48You're so annoying!
00:19:50Don't push.
00:19:55I said don't push.
00:19:56Go get a book or something.
00:19:57Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:19:59He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man servant like you.
00:20:01God, that's what you're saying.
00:20:06Call it a lesson.
00:20:07I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:20:08He's not your kid.
00:20:09I wish I was.
00:20:11I hope Bob marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:20:13I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:20:15Ouch.
00:20:16I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:20:18So why don't you make this a little vacay of yours?
00:20:19Hermit.
00:20:20Maybe it will be.
00:20:21But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:20:23You?
00:20:25Man of the house?
00:20:26Please.
00:20:26You're a pussy in an apron.
00:20:28I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid,
00:20:29much less a dad or a husband.
00:20:31You're watched a pack.
00:20:32Still writing on all your old headlines.
00:20:34How are your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:20:36I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:20:37I'm looking up to a star.
00:20:39A star?
00:20:40A star that needs his ex to bring it back into the spotlight.
00:20:42Jackson, come on.
00:20:43I don't want you hanging around this clowning.
00:20:45No, I'm not going.
00:20:46Preston's way cooler than you.
00:20:48Preston, Preston, Preston.
00:20:50You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable on Hollywood.
00:21:12What was that?
00:21:16Daniel.
00:21:18Daniel.
00:21:19What is happening?
00:21:21It was Dad, Mom.
00:21:22Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:21:24I was so scared.
00:21:25He got it pretty good, babe.
00:21:26What the hell, Daniel?
00:21:27I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:21:28I came in looking for a fight.
00:21:30What?
00:21:30I didn't.
00:21:31Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:21:32You're acting like a jealous child.
00:21:34I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:21:36He threw a fish tank at me.
00:21:37It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:21:38Bro, Mom, remember we're in the public eye?
00:21:41What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:21:43What?
00:21:43Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:21:46Maybe I should go.
00:21:47I'm sorry.
00:21:48No.
00:21:49Oh, my God.
00:21:50He's lying.
00:21:52You're a monster.
00:21:54And in front of your son?
00:21:55You have to be kidding.
00:21:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:21:59We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:22:00Come on.
00:22:02Clean this up.
00:22:04Soon, we won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:22:07Oh, she's mine now, loser.
00:22:17Hello, 911.
00:22:18What's your emergency?
00:22:19I think I already...
00:22:21I need an ambulance now.
00:22:23Now.
00:22:32You did lose a lot of blood,
00:22:33so we're going to have to keep you here overnight
00:22:35to dump you with liquid.
00:22:36To be honest, that's...
00:22:38I could use a break from home.
00:22:39Trouble with the missus?
00:22:43Yeah.
00:22:44Pretty obvious.
00:22:45Most married folks that come in here
00:22:46are miserable.
00:22:47I shouldn't be saying this,
00:22:49but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:22:51We see Preston Easterman.
00:22:53True love story.
00:22:54Holding hands,
00:22:55wiping tears.
00:22:56I've been obsessed with them since breaking the eyes.
00:22:58You said, um, a couple?
00:23:01I wasn't sure,
00:23:02but I checked the visitation logs,
00:23:04and it's official.
00:23:05She even helped me reposition Preston
00:23:07when his IV was twisted.
00:23:09She was so sweet.
00:23:13Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:23:15No, it's...
00:23:17It's an old wound.
00:23:19I tore it, actually.
00:23:20I'm 10 years old.
00:23:22Daniel!
00:23:24Sweet and caring.
00:23:26So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:23:28He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:23:30and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:23:32I don't know if you remember me.
00:23:43You once liked my short film.
00:23:44I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:23:53Fit Me's the right producer.
00:23:54I know it's a long shot,
00:23:55but I'd be honored if you read it.
00:23:58Where have you been?
00:23:59I kept calling.
00:24:00I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:24:03Huh?
00:24:06What?
00:24:07You've been busy.
00:24:08I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:24:10Seriously?
00:24:11Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:24:13I told you.
00:24:14He's just a friend.
00:24:16Yeah.
00:24:17That's what you want to call it?
00:24:19I...
00:24:19I just...
00:24:21I'm sorry.
00:24:22I...
00:24:23Bringing Preston into our home
00:24:24is probably crossing the line.
00:24:28It is what it is.
00:24:30But I mean,
00:24:31you know how the industry works.
00:24:33You even just hint at a relationship
00:24:35and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:24:37And I think you should go for it.
00:24:39I mean,
00:24:39you always do what's best for your career.
00:24:41But...
00:24:41I just...
00:24:42I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:24:47Seriously.
00:24:48I...
00:24:48I care about you.
00:24:49You don't know that.
00:24:55I've known you for 14 years.
00:24:56I know when you're angry.
00:24:57Really?
00:24:58I didn't think you paid attention.
00:24:59I pay attention?
00:25:01Since when do I not pay attention?
00:25:03She signed the papers without reading them.
00:25:06That's all this marriage ever wants to her.
00:25:07A headline.
00:25:08A performance.
00:25:11Sabrina.
00:25:11Sabrina.
00:25:11Sabrina, I'm good.
00:25:15You know what?
00:25:16I hate fighting.
00:25:17So,
00:25:18let's just forget about this, okay?
00:25:20I was thinking
00:25:21we could
00:25:22revisit your script.
00:25:25I gave that to you
00:25:26three years ago.
00:25:27You're telling me
00:25:28you finally read it?
00:25:29Well, yeah.
00:25:30The first ten pages,
00:25:31but
00:25:31they're good.
00:25:33The lead role
00:25:34is something I can really
00:25:34sink my teeth into.
00:25:35I mean,
00:25:36we have to do this.
00:25:37Me and you.
00:25:38The lead actress
00:25:38I'm a writer-director.
00:25:41I gave up on that dream
00:25:42of us working together.
00:25:44A long time ago.
00:25:46Well,
00:25:46how about you make us
00:25:47some lattes
00:25:48and for the next hour
00:25:49we can just pour ourselves
00:25:50into the script.
00:25:51Just like we used to
00:25:52in film school.
00:25:54There was a time
00:25:55when this would've worked on me.
00:25:56I would've melted in her hands.
00:25:59Now I just want to
00:25:59pack and get out of here.
00:26:08I don't know what you do,
00:26:14but
00:26:15I asked the chef
00:26:16to make a latte
00:26:16while you were gone
00:26:17and it was
00:26:18awful.
00:26:20Well, if I had a lot
00:26:20of experience making it for you,
00:26:21I'll be sure to tell him
00:26:22how you like it.
00:26:23That's not what I meant.
00:26:25I like it when you make it.
00:26:28I'm not going to always be here
00:26:29to make it.
00:26:31I knew it.
00:26:33You are mad
00:26:34that I brought Preston back here.
00:26:35I told you
00:26:35it was just a publicity stunt.
00:26:37God, it's not like
00:26:39our marriage is going to
00:26:40get me on the cover
00:26:40of Vanity Fair.
00:26:42Married people
00:26:42are fucking boring.
00:26:45It's good to know
00:26:45where you stand.
00:26:46No, Daniel.
00:26:47No, that's not what I meant.
00:26:54Look what you made me do.
00:26:57Just leave it.
00:26:58I thought you would appreciate
00:26:59that I read your script.
00:27:01And what?
00:27:02It would make up
00:27:03for all the years
00:27:03of indifference?
00:27:04I'm just trying to do
00:27:05something nice.
00:27:06And look what I get for it.
00:27:08You know what?
00:27:08Forget it.
00:27:09I heard from here.
00:27:10Just talk about tomorrow.
00:27:24What?
00:27:24Is that how you
00:27:25talked to your mother-in-law?
00:27:26Yeah.
00:27:27Ex-mother-in-law.
00:27:27Not quite.
00:27:28That was the divorce contract.
00:27:30But if you want a clean break,
00:27:31we need to finalize
00:27:31our entertainment contract
00:27:32and our family's FDA.
00:27:34This is Shilvis, baby.
00:27:35Remember that.
00:27:36I'll text you the address
00:27:36of where's the movie?
00:27:46I heard she was sneaking
00:27:48Preston Eastwood
00:27:49into her trailer on set.
00:27:50Oh, please.
00:27:51She's always been so secretive.
00:27:53I mean, this is her movie premiere,
00:27:54and where is her husband?
00:27:56Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:27:58I read somewhere
00:27:59where she was just
00:28:00the road writer's assistant.
00:28:03Oh, if we want the tea,
00:28:04let's get it from the pot.
00:28:06Come here.
00:28:06Oh.
00:28:09Jackson!
00:28:10We were just talking
00:28:11about your mom.
00:28:12Do you know where she is?
00:28:13Or who she's with?
00:28:15She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:28:16He's been staying with us.
00:28:18Really?
00:28:19Do you think Mr. Eastwood
00:28:21might be your new daddy?
00:28:22Oh, I hope so.
00:28:23I really hope so.
00:28:24He's way cooler
00:28:25than my old, boring real dad.
00:28:27Speaking of,
00:28:27I don't think we've ever
00:28:28met your real dad.
00:28:29Yeah, he usually stays at home
00:28:31doing chores like a maid.
00:28:37What are you doing here?
00:28:38You never come to these things.
00:28:40Oh, that's how to be the husband.
00:28:43Get lost.
00:28:43You'll embarrass us.
00:28:44Jackson,
00:28:45do not talk to me like that.
00:28:46I'm your father.
00:28:47I wish you never were my dad.
00:28:51Is there a problem?
00:28:56Oh, my God.
00:28:58That's Preston Eastwood.
00:28:59How would Sabrina
00:29:00choose this flood
00:29:00over Preston?
00:29:02If there was a problem,
00:29:03that's none of your business.
00:29:04I wish Preston was my dad.
00:29:05You're a pathetic loser.
00:29:06Zip it, Jackson.
00:29:08You should probably
00:29:08listen to your kid
00:29:09and head out
00:29:10because you're starting to make a scene.
00:29:12I'm just here
00:29:13to talk to Celeste.
00:29:13That's not what I see.
00:29:15You showed up uninvited.
00:29:17In street rags.
00:29:18Abuse Sabrina's kid
00:29:19and pick a fight
00:29:20with an A-lister.
00:29:22That's the kind of story
00:29:23the press would devour.
00:29:25It doesn't take much
00:29:25to be canceled these days.
00:29:27And then they would
00:29:28praise Sabrina
00:29:28for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:29:31This was all stuff,
00:29:31was it?
00:29:33You were revolting.
00:29:34No wonder Sabrina
00:29:34turned out the way she did.
00:29:36Hey.
00:29:37Why don't you watch her now?
00:29:39Trash like him
00:29:40is always forgetting
00:29:40their place in the world.
00:29:42Yeah.
00:29:43Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:29:44Oh yeah?
00:29:45What lesson's that, Preston?
00:29:46You grobbling back
00:29:47to your ex
00:29:47that you cheated on
00:29:48so that you can
00:29:48leech off her career?
00:29:49What the hell?
00:30:09What happened?
00:30:11Oh my god, Daniel!
00:30:12What the hell happened?
00:30:14Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:30:16Are you okay?
00:30:17Look at her go.
00:30:18Hollywood's finest.
00:30:20Always performing
00:30:21when there's an audience.
00:30:22It's Daniel.
00:30:23He's a monster.
00:30:24He found out about your premiere
00:30:25and crashed the party.
00:30:27Mommy, dad came in here
00:30:28and started shouting at me.
00:30:29No, no, that's not true.
00:30:31If Preston weren't here,
00:30:33Daniel would have manhandled Jackson
00:30:34in front of the reporters.
00:30:36Can you imagine the allegations?
00:30:39Daniel, is that true?
00:30:43Sabrina.
00:30:43Oh, yeah, I think he got me in the ribs.
00:30:48I think one of them was broken.
00:30:50Sabrina, honey,
00:30:51we need to help Preston.
00:30:55But Daniel.
00:30:58Imagine choosing that loser
00:30:59for Preston Eastwood.
00:31:09Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:31:11I, I have, I have to help Preston.
00:31:26Come on, Jason.
00:31:32Daniel!
00:31:33I got you.
00:31:34Don't let me go.
00:31:35She's made her choice.
00:31:38There's no going back.
00:31:39We'll see if Preston can give her the life
00:31:40she's grown used to
00:31:41after all these years of me
00:31:42slaving for her.
00:31:44Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:31:53Now we can make a clean break.
00:31:55I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:31:57There's an Uber waiting for you outside
00:31:59to take you to the airport.
00:32:01Get out of Hollywood.
00:32:02In fact, get out of the country.
00:32:05If I so much as see your name
00:32:06next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:32:08I will make your life a living hell.
00:32:10Don't worry about it.
00:32:23Just try.
00:32:34I used egg for her approval.
00:32:36Now I just want to breathe
00:32:38without her shadow.
00:32:40Seriously?
00:32:42Stay down.
00:32:44Yeah.
00:32:45I'm going to call the doctor.
00:32:46Hey.
00:32:49What are you doing?

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