00:00:00And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:07That 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 were 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 got my way back.
00:00:23I 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.
00:00:38Our 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?
00:00:56That 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 singing 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.
00:01:17So 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.
00:01:30This 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.
00:01:45If the paparazzi catch him next to you, oh!
00:01:47But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:01:51Think about it, Daniel.
00:01:55Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.
00:01:59Then I will be free.
00:02:01Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:02Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:06I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:09I saw Preston was there.
00:02:12I 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.
00:02:25No! 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.
00:02:47I'll make it quick.
00:02:47This isn't easy, but I'm...
00:02:49Yo, 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.
00:02:59But I want that!
00:03:00Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:03You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:13I 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?
00:03:38Huh?
00:03:40I want a...
00:03:43I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:44Jimmy, chicken nuggets!
00:03:46Jackson, 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?
00:04:03Another contract?
00:04:04How big is the role?
00:04:06Who's directing?
00:04:07It's not a...
00:04:08Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:10Hard 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.
00:04:17I really need to pull your weight.
00:04:19Pull my weight?
00:04:20Yeah, you get it.
00:04:23Love you.
00:04:24I've devoted myself to this family for 10 long years.
00:04:27If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:04:30Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:04:38The movie's Greenland, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:04:41We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:04:42I can't.
00:04:43My wife needs me here in L.A.
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.
00:04:58How you doing?
00:04:58Oh, good, dear.
00:05:00I just noticed that you transfer more money to my town.
00:05:03Do you need more?
00:05:04No, no, no, no.
00:05:04You've already done so much.
00:05:07I was just trying to help.
00:05:08I know.
00:05:09But 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.
00:05:26You're wonderful, dear.
00:05:27You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:05:29Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:05:31I gotta go.
00:05:31Love you.
00:05:34What 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.
00:05:55All 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.
00:06:17If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:06:17She didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:06:47Sabrina, don't!
00:06:59Stay back.
00:07:00I mean it.
00:07:02Sabina, don't do this.
00:07:05Just...
00:07:06Just give me your hand.
00:07:17No!
00:07:19Daniel!
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.
00:07:32Nobody sees around me.
00:07:34I see you, Sabrina.
00:07:36I see all of you.
00:07:38And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:07:40Good to see ya!
00:07:47Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:07:48Oh, too long.
00:07:49It's you!
00:07:50Oh, 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.
00:07:55Are you kidding?
00:07:56Oh, Daniel, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:07:59Oh, 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 stale work.
00:08:18Daniel!
00:08:19Don't embarrass me.
00:08:20No, it's fine.
00:08:21Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:08:24He'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 bend some of dad's rules.
00:08:34What are you saying?
00:08:35Huh?
00:08:36Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:08:38That's fine.
00:08:39That's fine.
00:08:40Just relax, okay?
00:08:41Be nice.
00:08:42Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her
00:08:55when he breaks her heart again.
00:08:57Yeah, it's nice, but this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the sale.
00:09:08Oh, careful.
00:09:09You all right?
00:09:10I'm still starving.
00:09:11Make me some food.
00:09:12Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:09:13Stew?
00:09:14Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:09:15I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:09:16Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just get him nuggets.
00:09:17I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:09:18Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:09:19What?
00:09:20For real?
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:22My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:09:23Donovan Cosmetics.
00:09:24I'm rich.
00:09:25Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:09:28I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:09:31I see.
00:09:32I see.
00:09:33You know, that was always your problem.
00:09:34You're so caught up on the morals.
00:09:35You realize that's why no one bought your scripts, they were so dull.
00:09:37Please, Mr. Eastwood, my cat don't let me have anything!
00:09:40Well, for you Uncle Preston's a little bit of a rebel, so how about we go to an exclusive
00:09:46restaurant?
00:09:47My treat?
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.
00:09:54Well, for you, Uncle Preston, it's a little bit of a rebel.
00:09:57So how about we go to an exclusive restaurant, Montreaty?
00:10:01Here we go.
00:10:03What?
00:10:04Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:10:05I don't mind.
00:10:06I'll let you do it, sis.
00:10:07I mean, I'm already dressed, so, OK.
00:10:11Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel,
00:10:13but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:10:15So anyways, come on, baby, let's go.
00:10:18Screw you.
00:10:18Gotcha.
00:10:19Here we go.
00:10:20Oh, there's the cops.
00:10:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:10:25Last 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,
00:10:41or are you following through on the divorce?
00:10:43Oh, that's fine.
00:10:45Let's hope.
00:10:47Why 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?
00:10:59She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:11:03Sabrina Bonovan?
00:11:04I could scream.
00:11:05I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:11:06Preston Eastwood?
00:11:07I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking ice.
00:11:08Oh, gee.
00:11:09I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the Oaks.
00:11:10The scene that I wrote.
00:11:11Uncredited, of course.
00:11:12Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:11:13Wait.
00:11:14Are you two dating?
00:11:15Oh, well, actually, I totally date.
00:11:16All these years, I couldn't even be seeing what they're in public.
00:11:20Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:11:21They're not really a part of my brand.
00:11:22Your brand?
00:11:23It's just not a good look for me.
00:11:24You get it, right?
00:11:25I'm sorry.
00:11:26I just, I'm sorry.
00:11:27I'm sorry.
00:11:28I'm just, I'm sorry.
00:11:29I'm good to get myself up.
00:11:30You're my other day.
00:11:31No, I'm not bad.
00:11:32I'm not bad.
00:11:33I'm so sorry.
00:11:34I'm sorry.
00:11:35You're my other day.
00:11:36I'm not bad.
00:11:37I'm not bad.
00:11:38I'm out of nobody ever.
00:11:39Hi.
00:11:40I'm not bad.
00:11:41I'm sorry.
00:11:41I'm sorry.
00:11:42I'm sorry.
00:11:43I'm sorry.
00:11:44I'm sorry.
00:11:45I'm sorry.
00:11:46You're not good for me.
00:11:47I'm sorry.
00:11:48You get it, right?
00:11:56So, you two are a thing?
00:11:58Well, I...
00:11:58It's okay, babe.
00:11:59We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:12:09This is so going viral.
00:12:10I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:12:11It 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.
00:12:17You 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.
00:12:30My own son doesn't respect me.
00:12:32But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:12:34when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty
00:12:36with a call girl.
00:12:38It's okay, buddy.
00:12:38Every spy is a partner in crime.
00:12:40If you want me around, I'm in.
00:12:42That is if mom's school is in.
00:12:44Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:12:45Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:12:48What are you doing?
00:12:51Come on.
00:12:52Let's get Michelle.
00:12:52Michelle.
00:13:05Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:13:07I 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!
00:13:19You know, it's probably for the best.
00:13:21On 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.
00:13:41What 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've got.
00:14:07Daniel loves me.
00:14:08He has to understand.
00:14:09This is Hollywood.
00:14:09It's just part of the job.
00:14:12Daniel, 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, oh, 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?
00:14:35Final.
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?
00:14:43Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:14:44That's not what I meant.
00:14:45Whoa.
00:14:46Looks 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?
00:14:55Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:14:56I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:14:58I always knew you were the self-loving 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.
00:15:10I'm going 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!
00:15:29I'm here.
00:15:31Yeah.
00:15:33Oh!
00:15:35Oh, 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.
00:15:49How lucky for him.
00:15:51He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:15:54Daniel, 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 big problem.
00:16:06You need to go right 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.
00:16:35You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:16:38That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final ledge between her and the house husband.
00:16:45Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:16:50My God.
00:16:51God, you're unbelievable.
00:16:52Are 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...
00:17:01What?
00:17:03You know what?
00:17:03Fine.
00:17:06You two look great together.
00:17:07Daniel, I...
00:17:08I didn't think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:17:24Um...
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.
00:17:56Pearson, can you go in the other room?
00:17:58I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:18:03Look at her now.
00:18:12Playing house for another man.
00:18:14If 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 me, Lister, I guess.
00:18:39Here we go, son.
00:18:42Yeah.
00:18:43What do you need?
00:18:44Oh, oh.
00:18:45Yeah, there you go.
00:18:46I don't need some of this shit, but...
00:18:47I thought you'd like it.
00:18:48Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:18:50Bolting up for a new Marvel movie!
00:18:54Hey, uh...
00:18:56You're not pissed off that your wife edited care of me last night, right?
00:18:59No.
00:19:00A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:19:01Why would I be threatened by that?
00:19:06It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:19:17From Fisk.
00:19:19Mr. Eastwood!
00:19:20I want to play with the Fisk when 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?
00:19:25I'm gonna grab a freeable, man.
00:19:27Here we go.
00:19:28Ooh.
00:19:29Nose!
00:19:30Not to play with that.
00:19:32You never let me do anything!
00:19:35Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:19:37You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:19:39It's not about the money.
00:19:40It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:19:42Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:19:44bad examples.
00:19:46Yeah?
00:19:46What's that supposed to mean?
00:19:48You're so annoying!
00:19:50Don't...
00:19:51push.
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?
00:19:58He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-servant like you.
00:20:01God, that's just a zombie.
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 mom 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 permanent?
00:20:20Maybe it will be.
00:20:21But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:20:23Wait, you?
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 maiden, which less a dad or a husband.
00:20:31You're a watch to pack!
00:20:32You're still riding on all your old headlines.
00:20:34How are your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:20:35I heard your agent's begging for scrap.
00:20:37I'm gonna come up with a star!
00:20:39A star?
00:20:40A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:20:43Jackson, come on.
00:20:44I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:20:45No, I'm not going!
00:20:46Preston's way cooler than you!
00:20:48Preston!
00:20:49Preston!
00:20:50Preston!
00:21:05You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable on hard work.
00:21:12What was that?
00:21:14What 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!
00:21:24What?
00:21:24I'm so scared!
00:21:25I got a pretty good name.
00:21:26What the hell, Daniel?
00:21:28I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:21:29I 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, I'm not...
00:21:39Remember where 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?
00:21:47Maybe I should go on.
00:21:48I'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.
00:22:02Clean this up.
00:22:04Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:22:08She's mine now, loser.
00:22:17Hello, 911.
00:22:18What is your emergency?
00:22:19Wait, no.
00:22:20I think I already...
00:22:21I need an ambulance now.
00:22:23Now!
00:22:23You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight.
00:22:35To be honest, that's...
00:22:38I could use a break from home.
00:22:39Trouble with the missus?
00:22:42Uh...
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:44Pretty obvious.
00:22:45Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:22:48I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:22:51With Preston Easterman.
00:22:53True love story.
00:22:54Holding hands, wiping tears.
00:22:56I've been obsessed with them since breaking the eyes.
00:22:59You said, um, a couple?
00:23:01I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official!
00:23:05She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was posted.
00:23:09She was so sweet.
00:23:13Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:23:16No, it's...
00:23:17It's a wound.
00:23:18I 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.
00:23:36Fuck it.
00:23:38Now I can not shit and go.
00:23:41Mr. Lee, I 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.
00:23:48It meets the right producer.
00:23:54I know it's a long shot, but 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?
00:24:07What?
00:24:07I'm 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, he's just a friend.
00:24:16Yeah.
00:24:16That's what you want to call it?
00:24:19I, I just, I'm sorry.
00:24:22I, bringing Preston into our home is probably crossing the line.
00:24:28It is what it is.
00:24:30But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:24:34You even just hint at a relationship, and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:24:37Yeah, I think you should go for it.
00:24:39I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:24:40But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:24:47Seriously.
00:24:48I, I care about you.
00:24:53I don't know that.
00:24:53I'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?
00:25:02Since 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.
00:25:08A headline.
00:25:09A performance.
00:25:11Sabrina.
00:25:15Sabrina, I'm good.
00:25:15You know what?
00:25:16I hate fighting.
00:25:18So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:25:20I was thinking, we could revisit your script.
00:25:25I gave that to you three years ago.
00:25:28You're telling me you finally read it?
00:25:29Well, yeah.
00:25:30The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:25:33The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:25:35I mean, we have to do this.
00:25:37Me and you.
00:25:38The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:25:41I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:25:44A long time ago.
00:25:46Well, how about you make us some lattes,
00:25:48and for the next hour,
00:25:49we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:25:51Just like we used to do in film school.
00:25:54There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:25:57I would have melted in her hands.
00:25:59Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:26:13I don't know what you do,
00:26:14but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:26:17and it was awful.
00:26:20Well, if I had a lot of experience making it for you,
00:26:21I'll be sure to tell him how you liked 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 only be here to make it.
00:26:30I knew it.
00:26:32You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:26:35I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:26:38God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:26:42Married people are fucking boring.
00:26:44It's good to know where you stand.
00:26:46No, Daniel.
00:26:48No, that's not what I meant.
00:26:54Look what you made me do.
00:26:55Just leave it.
00:26:58I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:27:02And what?
00:27:02It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:27:04I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:27:06And look what I get for it.
00:27:08You know what?
00:27:09Forget it.
00:27:09I don't fear.
00:27:10Just talk about this tomorrow.
00:27:24What?
00:27:25Is that how you talk 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 our entertainment contract
00:27:32and our family's FDA.
00:27:34This is Shildiz, baby.
00:27:35Remember that.
00:27:36I'll text you the address of Vanity Fair.
00:27:38I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood
00:27:49into her trailer on set.
00:27:51Oh, 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,
00:27:59but he was just a broke 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.
00:28:08Jackson,
00:28:10we were just talking about 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.
00:28:17Oh, really?
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 than my old, boring real dad.
00:28:27Speaking of,
00:28:27I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:28:30Yeah, he usually stays at home
00:28:31doing chores like a maid.
00:28:32What are you doing here?
00:28:38You never come to these things.
00:28:40Oh, that's gotta be the husband.
00:28:43Get lost.
00:28:43You 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?
00:28:52Oh, my God.
00:28:58It's Preston Eastwood.
00:28:59How would Sabrina choose this flat over 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 listen to your kid
00:29:09and head out because
00:29:10you're starting to make a scene.
00:29:12I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:29:13That's not what I see.
00:29:14You showed up uninvited
00:29:17in street rags,
00:29:18abused Sabrina's kid
00:29:19and picked 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 praise Sabrina
00:29:29for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:29:31This was all stunt, was it?
00:29:33You were revolting.
00:29:34No wonder Sabrina turned out
00:29:35the 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
00:29:41their place in the world.
00:29:42Yeah.
00:29:43Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:29:44Oh, yeah?
00:29:44What lesson's that, Preston?
00:29:46You groveling back to your ex
00:29:47that you cheated on
00:29:48so that you can leech off her career?
00:29:50Hmm.
00:29:53Oh!
00:29:54What the hell?
00:30:09What happened?
00:30:11Oh my God, Daniel!
00:30:13What the hell happened?
00:30:15Daniel, 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!
00:30:27Dad came in here
00:30:28and started shouting at me.
00:30:30No.
00:30:30No, 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?
00:30:37Daniel, is it true?
00:30:43Sabrina.
00:30:43Sabrina.
00:30:44Oh!
00:30:46Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:30:48I think one of them is broken.
00:30:50Sabrina?
00:30:51Honey?
00:30:51We need to help Preston.
00:30:55But Daniel!
00:30:58Imagine choosing that loser
00:30:59ever Preston Eastwood.
00:31:09Mommy, please!
00:31:10We can't leave him!
00:31:12I...
00:31:12I have...
00:31:13I have to help Preston.
00:31:21Come on, Jackson.
00:31:27Daniel!
00:31:33I got you.
00:31:34Don't let me go!
00:31:36She's made her choice.
00:31:38There's no going back.
00:31:39We'll see if Preston can give
00:31:40her the life she's grown used to
00:31:41after all these years of me
00:31:42slaving for her.
00:31:49Well,
00:31:51that went even better
00:31:52than I planned.
00:31:53Now we can make a clean break.
00:31:55I wasn't waiting
00:31:56for your permission.
00:31:56There's an Uber
00:31:58waiting for you outside
00:31:59to take you to the airport.
00:32:01Get out of Hollywood.
00:32:02In fact,
00:32:03get out of the country.
00:32:05If I so much as see
00:32:06your name
00:32:07next to my daughters
00:32:08in a tabloid,
00:32:09I will make your life
00:32:09a living hell.
00:32:10Don't worry about it.
00:32:23Just try.
00:32:29I used egg for her approval.
00:32:32I used egg for her approval.
00:32:36Now I just want to breathe
00:32:38without her shadow.
00:32:41Seriously?
00:32:42Stay down.
00:32:43I know.
00:32:44Yeah.
00:32:45I'm going to call the doctor.
00:32:47Me?
00:32:49What are you doing?
00:32:50I thought you were hurt.
00:32:51I think I'll pull through.
00:32:58So what are you doing?
00:32:59I've always wanted to.
00:33:01Come on.
00:33:02I know you want this.
00:33:02I see the way you look at me.
00:33:04Now that Daniel's gone,
00:33:05there's a house to ourself.
00:33:07I can finally have you
00:33:08in this bedroom.
00:33:09What am I doing?
00:33:19Daniel is still injured.
00:33:20He should be home.
00:33:23Sabrina?
00:33:33Carson, get off.
00:33:35What?
00:33:36Babe, we can finally...
00:33:37I said get off.
00:33:38I 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, your mother.
00:33:52Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:33:54What?
00:33:55Look, he's already moved on.
00:33:58No.
00:34:00No.
00:34:01What have I done?
00:34:02Where is he?
00:34:03What about me?
00:34:04You had a chance 10 years ago.
00:34:07I need to go take care of my husband.
00:34:08I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach
00:34:21is no longer in service.
00:34:22Please try again.
00:34:35Are you done?
00:34:36Are you done?
00:34:45Come on, Daniel.
00:34:47Answer me.
00:34:52He's not gone.
00:34:53I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:35:02He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:35:08It's not possible.
00:35:10He will be back.
00:35:12No!
00:35:22Boy, it's all the assets.
00:35:24I'm Zero Castillo Jackson.
00:35:26It leaves all spousal support.
00:35:29No, no, he can't leave me.
00:35:31He can't do this to me.
00:35:32I won't sign off on him.
00:35:41No!
00:35:43All this time?
00:35:44Who's gonna leave me?
00:35:58It can't be.
00:36:00It's not her.
00:36:01Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:36:02My mom will look it over anyways.
00:36:05He loves me.
00:36:06He loves Jackson.
00:36:08He wouldn't just leave us.
00:36:09We're his family.
00:36:10And after all these years, everything we've been through...
00:36:32I got you.
00:36:33He'll let me go!
00:36:35Was he ever really paying attention?
00:36:40Daniel?
00:36:41No, it's Mom.
00:36:42Is everything okay?
00:36:43He'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 or the...
00:36:55Oh, 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 and explain everything.
00:37:10I'm hungry!
00:37:12Dad!
00:37:13Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:37:15Jackson?
00:37:17I have something to tell you.
00:37:20Your dad...
00:37:23Your dad...
00:37:25He's left us.
00:37:27I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:37:29Yay!
00:37:30He's gone!
00:37:31He's gone!
00:37:32Why 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 should stick to scrubbing toilets and raising a young man.
00:37:44He was so lame and boring.
00:37:46Now he's gone!
00:37:47Mr. Eastwood is way cooler!
00:37:49He can be my new dad!
00:37:50Jackson!
00:37:51You have a dad!
00:37:52And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:37:55Yeah, but I hate him!
00:38:01Hello?
00:38:02Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:38:04Ms. Donovan.
00:38:05It's your accountant.
00:38:06I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:38:07I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:38:09Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:38:12Was that done with your approval?
00:38:13No.
00:38:14But I'm not surprised.
00:38:15Flag his name.
00:38:16I want him frozen and cut off.
00:38:18Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:38:22Okay?
00:38:23He's not the man you think he is.
00:38:25Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:38:28And we need to find him at all costs.
00:38:31What kind of coward abandons his family, huh?
00:38:34It's despicable.
00:38:35I can't do this anymore.
00:38:37I cancel everything.
00:38:39The interviews, the red carpets.
00:38:41I don't want to be seen.
00:38:43I can't pretend.
00:38:44I just want him back.
00:38:46Honey.
00:38:47It's time to let him go.
00:38:49You don't love him anyway.
00:38:51And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:38:54What?
00:38:55How could you say something like that?
00:38:59Of course I love Daniel.
00:39:01He cares for me.
00:39:02He sees me.
00:39:03He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:39:07But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:39:09Thanks to my husband.
00:39:11And the father of my son.
00:39:13Yeah, some husband.
00:39:14Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:39:16Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended?
00:39:18Contract?
00:39:19What contract?
00:39:25What are you talking about?
00:39:27Forget it.
00:39:28Forget it.
00:39:29Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:39:30When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:39:34Is there something you're not telling me?
00:39:36Please.
00:39:37I just want the truth.
00:39:39Ma.
00:39:40Fine.
00:39:41I will tell you the truth.
00:39:43But promise me you won't get mad.
00:39:46I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:39:49But no, it was all for your own good.
00:39:52When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:39:57I had to save you.
00:39:59She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:40:02You've always been there for her.
00:40:04From film school to now.
00:40:05I'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.
00:40:13It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:40:20How could you do this to me?
00:40:22I wanted to protect you.
00:40:23You wanted to control me.
00:40:25All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:40:28Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:40:33You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:40:36Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:40:38He kept you together.
00:40:39Where?
00:40:40Where did he go?
00:40:41I know he told you where he went.
00:40:43Where is he?
00:40:44You can do better than him.
00:40:46You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.
00:40:49Believe me, it's for the best.
00:40:51No, he can't be gone.
00:40:53He can't.
00:40:54Yes, he is gone and he is gone forever.
00:40:56He can't be.
00:40:57He can't be gone again.
00:41:11He can't be gone.
00:41:12He can't be gone.
00:41:13He can't be gone.
00:41:14He can't be gone.
00:41:15He can't be gone.
00:41:16I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame Silverpops that's already generated
00:41:20a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:41:22Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:41:27Daniel, your film received a palm door at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:41:32What's going through your head tonight?
00:41:34Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own sheet.
00:41:37Nobody told me how.
00:41:38Oh man, how uncomfortable these other shoes would be.
00:41:41I've heard this talk of the sequel.
00:41:43Yeah, my career's been a long time in the making and I've been very honest about it actually.
00:41:49I almost, I don't care about the dream.
00:41:50But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I've found my voice and it really is full steam ahead.
00:41:57Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:42:03Hollywood.
00:42:05Get out of the country.
00:42:06If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:42:14Daniel?
00:42:27He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:42:30Daniel is a true author and a pretty genius.
00:42:33And it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:42:36That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake.
00:42:38Two-time Golden Globe Award winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:42:43Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:42:46We'll never tell.
00:42:49Oh my God, thanks for saying that.
00:42:51She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:42:53I know.
00:42:54Jeez.
00:42:55This is so surreal.
00:42:56I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:42:57I can.
00:42:58The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:43:02Daniel, enjoy this.
00:43:05And get used to compliments.
00:43:07There's already Oscar buzz.
00:43:08Fuck.
00:43:09Finish me, I know.
00:43:10I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:43:13You okay?
00:43:14You always do that when you're nervous.
00:43:16I'll have it.
00:43:18Well, the world's about to meet it's new favorite filmmaker.
00:43:21Someone else just got a head start.
00:43:33Oh.
00:43:34All press is good press.
00:43:35Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:43:44You can't do this to me.
00:43:47Sabrina.
00:43:48You don't need him.
00:43:49Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:43:51How can you move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:43:53Move on?
00:43:54Please, honey.
00:43:55He is using her.
00:43:57Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:44:00He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:44:02How could you say that?
00:44:03I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:44:06He's proving that to the whole world.
00:44:08Don't you see it?
00:44:09Sabrina.
00:44:10Look at what you've got.
00:44:12A celebrated career.
00:44:13A mansion in the hills.
00:44:15An adorable kid.
00:44:16Melanie's not whining.
00:44:18And don't forget about Preston.
00:44:19Your dream man.
00:44:21You have everything.
00:44:22I don't.
00:44:23Have.
00:44:24Him.
00:44:25Mom, I'm hungry.
00:44:26Go have the chef make something.
00:44:27No, I hate what she cooks.
00:44:29And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:44:30Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:44:32Don't talk about him like that.
00:44:33He's your dad.
00:44:34No!
00:44:35Preston is my real dad now.
00:44:36Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:44:39It was fun telling him what to do.
00:44:41When did he get so cruel?
00:44:43You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:44:46A doormat.
00:44:47Daniel's a doormat.
00:44:48Daniel'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?
00:44:58Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:45:01Whoa.
00:45:02What's going on here?
00:45:03This room feels really tense.
00:45:04Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:45:06I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:45:07No!
00:45:08I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:45:10And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a time out.
00:45:13It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:45:16Hey, are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:45:21Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:45:22Really?
00:45:23Loser?
00:45:24Yeah.
00:45:25You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:45:28And you've been mooching off from me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:45:36That's really, really low.
00:45:37Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:45:41Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:45:43To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:45:45Face it, Preston.
00:45:46You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:45:49And you're a fucking thief.
00:45:51Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:45:53You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:45:55I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:45:57Because you know what?
00:45:58Honestly, I pity you.
00:45:59It's not like that, okay?
00:46:01Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:46:03I want to marry you.
00:46:04We're legacy.
00:46:05Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:46:06Where's my birthday?
00:46:08Huh?
00:46:09What kind of flowers do I like?
00:46:11What's my favorite color?
00:46:12My favorite song?
00:46:13Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:46:15Oh, oh wait.
00:46:16What's my fucking middle name?
00:46:18You don't give a shit about me.
00:46:20You don't love me.
00:46:21You don't even know me.
00:46:22This isn't a relationship.
00:46:24This is a publicity stunt.
00:46:26And you know what?
00:46:27I'm done.
00:46:28Get out!
00:46:29I don't want to ever see you again.
00:46:31We're over.
00:46:32We're over.
00:46:33Hey, hey, come on, please.
00:46:35Please, I love you.
00:46:36Just think about it.
00:46:37Look at the press.
00:46:38What this will look like.
00:46:39If I have to call my security,
00:46:41all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:46:43Get out.
00:46:44Now.
00:46:45Just give me your hand.
00:46:46No.
00:46:47I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:46:49Nobody sees the real people.
00:46:51I see you, Sabrina.
00:46:52I see all of you.
00:46:54And you're never going to be alone again.
00:46:56He truly knew me.
00:46:59He loved me.
00:47:01Every flaw.
00:47:02Every fear.
00:47:03Contract or not.
00:47:05He truly loved me.
00:47:07I saved you from social suicide.
00:47:09Saved me?
00:47:10You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:47:12Daniel saved me from a ledge.
00:47:14And he saved me from you.
00:47:16Security!
00:47:18Security!
00:47:19Come on.
00:47:20Just let's talk about this.
00:47:21No.
00:47:22Come on.
00:47:23Celeste, do something.
00:47:24Sabrina!
00:47:25Come on, Sabrina!
00:47:26Was that really necessary?
00:47:29I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:47:31and people's sexiest man alive.
00:47:32Is that all you care about?
00:47:34The fame?
00:47:35The headlines?
00:47:36The brand deals?
00:47:37God.
00:47:38You're supposed to be my mother first,
00:47:40not some money-grubbing manager.
00:47:42Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:47:44Of course I care about you.
00:47:46I love you.
00:47:47Then 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.
00:48:03You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:48:05I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:48:07In film school,
00:48:08we were literally told to watch every single film
00:48:10that you ever produced.
00:48:11I mean, you know this.
00:48:12You're a legend.
00:48:13I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:48:15All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:48:16You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:48:18I appreciate the compliment,
00:48:19but I mean, I'm feeling all right.
00:48:20I got a project.
00:48:21Come on!
00:48:22You're built for billion dollar franchises,
00:48:23Hollywood blockbusters,
00:48:24the one that gets made in LA, not London.
00:48:26That's where you belong.
00:48:28To be honest, I already did LA.
00:48:30Didn't really end well.
00:48:31Let me guess.
00:48:32My girl?
00:48:33If by a girl,
00:48:34he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:48:37You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:48:40You can become a household name,
00:48:41and I can get you there.
00:48:43You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:48:44Three picture deal.
00:48:45Two hundred million dollar budget each.
00:48:47Creative control and final cut approval.
00:48:48I don't know what to say.
00:48:49Did I just say yes?
00:48:50You have my number?
00:48:51Just don't keep me waiting.
00:48:53Just remember, Daniel.
00:48:54You can't run away from the past.
00:48:56You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:48:58You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:48:59Hey, it's been awhile.
00:49:01Can we talk?
00:49:02Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:49:03Of course.
00:49:04It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:49:19Is this a personal story?
00:49:20A personal story where 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!
00:49:33I told you if you ever sat in this fucking country, I would unleash a little hell.
00:49:41It's Les Donovan. I 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.
00:49:51Mom, what are you doing?
00:49:56Did you just break my TV?
00:49:58Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:50:00You're not supposed to do that.
00:50:02You guys are kind of, um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
00:50:06He's back.
00:50:09Why didn't you tell me?
00:50:11Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:50:13I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:50:15I need to get on that movie.
00:50:17Absolutely not.
00:50:18You'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.
00:50:22Oh, honey.
00:50:23I'm just looking out for you.
00:50:24He still loves me.
