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.
00:06:47All right.
00:06:57Sabrina, don't!
00:06:59Stay back.
00:07:01I mean it.
00:07:02Sabina, don't do this.
00:07:05Just...
00:07:05Just 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.
00:09:31See, Dina, that was always your problem.
00:09:32You're so caught up on the morals.
00:09:33You realize that's why no one bought your scripts, they were so dull.
00:09:34Please, Mr. Eastwood, my cat won't let me have anything!
00:09:36Well, for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:09:37So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:09:38My treat.
00:09:39I'm a treat.
00:09:40I'm a treat.
00:09:41I'm a treat.
00:09:42I'm a treat.
00:09:43I'm a treat.
00:09:44I'm a treat.
00:09:45I'm a treat.
00:09:46I'm a treat.
00:09:47I'm a treat.
00:09:48I'm a treat.
00:09:49I'm a treat.
00:09:50I'm a treat.
00:09:51I'm a treat.
00:09:52I'm a treat.
00:09:53I'm a treat.
00:09:54I'm a treat.
00:09:55I'm a treat.
00:09:56I'm a treat.
00:10:01What?
00:10:02What?
00:10:03Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:10:04I don't mind.
00:10:05I'll let you do it, sis.
00:10:06I mean, I'm already dressed, so.
00:10:08Okay.
00:10:09Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:10:14So, anyways.
00:10:15Come on, baby.
00:10:16Let's go.
00:10:17That's great.
00:10:18Gotcha.
00:10:19There we go.
00:10:20Oh.
00:10:21There's the caps.
00:10:22You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:10:24Last time.
00:10:25I promise.
00:10:26You're right.
00:10:28It is the last time.
00:10:30Okay.
00:10:31You guys.
00:10:32Bye.
00:10:33Jackson.
00:10:34Jackson.
00:10:39Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:10:42Contract's fine.
00:10:43It's over.
00:10:45Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:10:49I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:10:52They're ten years of heartbreak.
00:10:54I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:11:00Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:11:12She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:11:14Sabrina Bonovan?
00:11:15I could scream.
00:11:16I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:11:17Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking Ice.
00:11:19Oh, gee.
00:11:20I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey.
00:11:22The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:11:23Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:11:24Wait.
00:11:25Are you two dating?
00:11:26Oh, well, actually.
00:11:27I totally date.
00:11:28All these years, I couldn't even be seeing that they're in public.
00:11:32Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:11:33They're not really a part of my brand.
00:11:34Your brand?
00:11:35It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:11:36You get it.
00:11:37Right?
00:11:38So, you two are a thing?
00:11:39Well, I...
00:11:40It's okay, babe.
00:11:41We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:11:42We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:11:43We don't have to lie to our fans.
00:11:44Oh, well, I...
00:11:45It's okay, babe.
00:11:46We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:11:47We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:12:00This is so going viral.
00:12:01I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:12:02It looks like more than dating.
00:12:03Is this your son?
00:12:04I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:12:05Don't be silly.
00:12:06You have a dad.
00:12:07He's a sissy.
00:12:08That's what all the boys at school say.
00:12:09He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:12:11But Preston is awesome.
00:12:13He's an action spy.
00:12:14I wish he was my dad.
00:12:15I wish he was my dad.
00:12:16What?
00:12:17What?
00:12:18What?
00:12:19What?
00:12:20What?
00:12:21What?
00:12:22What?
00:12:23What?
00:12:24What?
00:12:25What?
00:12:26He's an action spy.
00:12:27I 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 after party
00:12:36with a call girl.
00:12:37It's okay, buddy.
00:12:38Every spy is a partner in crime.
00:12:39If you want me around, I'm in.
00:12:42That is if mom's school with him.
00:12:44Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:12:45Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:12:47Preston, what are you doing?
00:12:49Come on, let's get Michelle.
00:13:05Now 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.
00:13:16Daniel!
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.
00:13:23Daniel, he's here?
00:13:24He...
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.
00:13:30Actually, 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?
00:13:36Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:13:38That's enough.
00:13:40What do I do?
00:13:41Well, that's it then.
00:13:43Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:13:44I need to leverage her relationship with Preston.
00:13:46With the tabloids.
00:13:48I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:13:50You're really good at that.
00:13:52Oh!
00:13:53I have a parting gift for you.
00:13:55A one-way ticket.
00:13:57So you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:14:00I know the contract is over.
00:14:01But if I see one stitch a bad press about the Donovans, I will come after you with everything
00:14:06I've got.
00:14:07Daniel loves me.
00:14:08He has to understand.
00:14:09This is Hollywood.
00:14:10It's just part of the job.
00:14:12Daniel, I can explain.
00:14:18Daniel, what is this?
00:14:19I can't let her create a public scene.
00:14:22All it takes is one article to get her cancelled.
00:14:25Are you going somewhere?
00:14:27Honey!
00:14:28Oh, what a coincidence.
00:14:29We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:14:32Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:14:33A vacation?
00:14:34Final.
00:14:35You're paying attention.
00:14:36Yeah.
00:14:37I'm gonna leave in a few days.
00:14:39Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:14:40What are we supposed to do without you?
00:14:42Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:14:43That's not what I meant.
00:14:44Whoa.
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.
00:14:50Just like any good husband would.
00:14:51Oh, I see.
00:14:53Is it me?
00:14:54Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:14:56I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:14:57I always knew you were the self-loving type.
00:14:59You know what?
00:15:00Maybe I should go.
00:15:01I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:15:02No, please, Faye.
00:15:03I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:15:05No, you know what?
00:15:07I'll go.
00:15:08And clearly she wants you.
00:15:09Going to test this soon.
00:15:11Daniel, wait.
00:15:12I 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.
00:15:24Daniel!
00:15:25I bet I'm yours.
00:15:30Yeah.
00:15:31Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:15:33Oh!
00:15:34Oh, good.
00:15:35You're up.
00:15:36Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:15:40It's fun.
00:15:42Don't look at me like that.
00:15:43I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:15:45Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:15:49How lucky for him.
00:15:50He'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.
00:15:56Listen, man.
00:15:57I have had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:16:01You can trust me.
00:16:03Preston, I think you're a kid.
00:16:05You need to let you out.
00:16:06Alright.
00:16:08Oh, hey.
00:16:09Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:16:11When 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?
00:16:27My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:16:30Okay, 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?
00:16:49My God.
00:16:50God, you're unbelievable.
00:16:52Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:16:58No, it's not like that.
00:17:00I...
00:17:01What?
00:17:02You know what, Mike?
00:17:05You two look great together.
00:17:07Daniel, I...
00:17:08And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:17:23Um...
00:17:27I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:17:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:17:33I was never the homemaker.
00:17:36Please, Daniel.
00:17:49I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:17:55Pearson, can you go in the other room?
00:17:58I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:18:06Look at her now.
00:18:07Playing house for another man.
00:18:08If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:18:13Here we go.
00:18:14There he is.
00:18:15God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:18:16Man.
00:18:17No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:18:18The life of May Lister, I guess.
00:18:19Hmm.
00:18:20Hmm.
00:18:21Hmm.
00:18:22Hmm.
00:18:23Hmm.
00:18:24Hmm.
00:18:25Hmm.
00:18:26Hmm.
00:18:27Hmm.
00:18:28Hmm.
00:18:29Hmm.
00:18:30Hmm.
00:18:31Hmm.
00:18:32I had some.
00:18:33Oh.
00:18:34Oh, yeah.
00:18:35Yeah.
00:18:36There you go.
00:18:37There you go.
00:18:38I don't need some of this shake, but I thought you'd like it.
00:18:39Yeah.
00:18:40This is straight up protein!
00:18:41Pulling up for a new Marvel movie!
00:18:43Hey, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:18:45I don't need some of this shit, but I 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, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:18:59No. A 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.
00:19:15Phone fest.
00:19:19Mr. Eastwood, I want 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? You know what? I'm going to grab a free little man.
00:19:27Here we go.
00:19:28Ooh.
00:19:29No, it's not to play with that.
00:19:32You never let me do anything!
00:19:35Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:19:37It's not a foreign 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 bad examples.
00:19:46Yeah? What's that supposed to mean?
00:19:48You're so annoying!
00:19:50Don't push.
00:19:55I said don't push. Go 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 manservant like you.
00:20:01I'm fast. Just show me.
00:20:06Call it a lesson. I'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? Please.
00:20:26You're a pussy in an apron.
00:20:28I'd be embarrassed to call you a maiden,
00:20:29which 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?
00:20:36I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:20:37I'm a fucking star!
00:20:38A star?
00:20:40A star that needs his ex to bring it back into the spotlight.
00:20:43Jackson, come on.
00:20:44I 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 hard work.
00:21:12What was that?
00:21:14It's this.
00:21:16No.
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 don't see you.
00:21:25I got to break it, babe.
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.
00:21:31Dude, 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 up.
00:21:39Remember where in the public eye?
00:21:41What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:21:43What, everyone knows your precious press had attacked me?
00:21:46Maybe I should go on.
00:21:48I'm sorry.
00:21:48No.
00:21:49Oh, my God.
00:21:50It's mine.
00:21:52You're a monster.
00:21:54In 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.
00:22:09You did lose a lot of blood.
00:22:33So we're going to have to keep you here overnight.
00:22:35To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:22:39Trouble with the missus?
00:22:42Uh, yeah.
00:22:44Pretty obvious.
00:22:45Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:22:47I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Easterman.
00:22:53True love story holding hands, making tears.
00:22:56I've been obsessed with him 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.
00:23:04Daniel, she even helped me repositioned 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.
00:23:19I tore it, actually.
00:23:20I'm ten years old.
00:23:22Daniel!
00:23:24Sweet and caring.
00:23:26So Preston's found the wife I always wanted.
00:23:28He only had to break her heart to get it, and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:23:34Mr. 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, and...
00:23:53It needs 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?
00:24:04Come on, I'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.
00:24:17That'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 is probably crossing the line.
00:24:26It is what it is.
00:24:31But 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...
00:24:42I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:24:47Seriously.
00:24:48I...
00:24:48I care about you.
00:24:53Don'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?
00:25:01Since 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.
00:25:08A headline.
00:25:09A performance.
00:25:11Sabrina.
00:25:11Sabrina.
00:25:11Sabrina, I'm good.
00:25:15You know what?
00:25:16I hate fighting.
00:25:18So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:25:20I was thinking.
00:25:21We 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.
00:25:39I 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, we 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.
00:26:09I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it was awful.
00:26:20Well, if I had a lot of experience making it for you, I'll be sure to tell him how you liked it.
00:26:23That's not what I meant.
00:26:24I like it when you make it.
00:26:28I'm not going to only be here to make it.
00:26:31I knew it.
00:26:33You 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.
00:26:45It'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.
00:26:57Just 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.
00:27:16What?
00:27:25Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:27:26Yeah, ex-mother-in-law.
00:27:28Not quite.
00:27:28That was the divorce contract.
00:27:30But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize our entertainment contract and our family's FDA.
00:27:34This is Shield This Baby.
00:27:35Remember that.
00:27:36I'll text you the address of where I need me.
00:27:46I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into 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, and where is her husband?
00:27:56Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:27:58I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:28:03Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:28:06Come here.
00:28:06Oh.
00:28:09Jackson!
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.
00:28:18Really?
00:28:19Do you think Mr. Eastwood might 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, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:28:30Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:28:37What 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, do 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.
00:28:58Let's Preston Eastwood.
00:28:59How could Sabrina choose this flat over Preston?
00:29:02If there was a problem, that'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.
00:29:07You should probably listen to your kid and head out because you're starting to make a scene.
00:29:12I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:29:13That's not what I see.
00:29:15You showed up uninvited.
00:29:17Then street rags abused Sabrina's kid and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:29:21That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:29:25It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:29:27And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:29:31This was all stunt, was it?
00:29:33You were revolting.
00:29:34No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:29:35But hey, why don't you watch her now?
00:29:39Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:29:42Yeah, maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:29:44Oh, yeah?
00:29:45What lesson is that, Preston?
00:29:46You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:29:50Hmm.
00:29:53Oh!
00:30:05What the hell?
00:30:09What happened?
00:30:11Oh my God, Daniel!
00:30:13What 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 when there's an audience.
00:30:22It's Daniel.
00:30:23He's a monster.
00:30:24He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:30:27Mommy, Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:30:30No, no, that's not true.
00:30:31If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:30:36Can you imagine the allegations?
00:30:39Daniel, is it true?
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, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:30:55But Daniel.
00:30:58Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:31:01Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:31:12I...
00:31:12I have...
00:31:14I have to help Preston.
00:31:27Come on, Jackson.
00:31:31Daniel!
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 her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving 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 to take you to the airport.
00:32:01Get out of Hollywood.
00:32:02In fact, get out of the country.
00:32:04If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:32:10Don't worry about it.
00:32:23Just try.
00:32:34I used A for her approval.
00:32:37Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:32:40Seriously?
00:32:42Stay down.
00:32:43I know.
00:32:44What's your deal?
00:32:45Ugh.
00:32:45I'm going to call the doctor.
00:32:47Hey.
00:32:49What are you doing?
00:32:50I thought you were hurt.
00:32:51I think I'll pull through.
00:32:58Preston, 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.
00:33:04How did Daniel's gone?
00:33:05I have the house to herself.
00:33:07I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:33:09What am I doing?
00:33:19Daniel is still injured.
00:33:20He should be home.
00:33:21I said get off.
00:33:34I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:33:41Forget about him.
00:33:42Look.
00:33:43I love Jackson.
00:33:44And I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:33:46I'm ready to be a dad to 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.
00:33:54What?
00:33:55Look.
00:33:56He'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 ten years ago.
00:34:07I need to go take care of 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 holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:34:24He didn't come back in, though.
00:34:29Dan, where are you?
00:34:30I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:34:34Please try again.
00:34:36Oh, my God.
00:34:45Come on, Daniel.
00:34:47Answer me.
00:34:52He's not gone.
00:34:54I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:35:00He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:35:06No.
00:35:09It's not possible.
00:35:11He will be back.
00:35:13No.
00:35:23Boy, it's all that sucks.
00:35:25I'm Zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:35:27He waves all 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.
00:35:42No.
00:35:43All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:35:58It can't be.
00:35:59It's not her.
00:36:02Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:36:03My mom will look it over anyways.
00:36:05He loves me.
00:36:07He loves Jackson.
00:36:09He wouldn't just leave us.
00:36:10We're his family.
00:36:11And after all these years, everything we've been through...
00:36:15I got you.
00:36:28I got you.
00:36:33I'll let him go.
00:36:34I'll let him go.
00:36:35I'll let him go.
00:36:35I'll let him go.
00:36:35Is he ever really paying attention?
00:36:41Daniel?
00:36:41No, it's mom.
00:36:43Is everything okay?
00:36:44You sound patient?
00:36:44Mom.
00:36:46Mom.
00:36:47Daniel.
00:36:48He just left us.
00:36:51Do you know where he is?
00:36:53I'll have to find him.
00:36:54We can check the hospital or 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 and explain everything.
00:37:03I'm hungry.
00:37:12Dad, breakfast should be ready by now.
00:37:16Jackson?
00:37:18I have something to tell you.
00:37:21Your 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, he'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 should stick with scrubbing toilets and 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.
00:37:50He can be my new dad.
00:37:51Jackson, you have a dad.
00:37:53And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:37:55Yeah, but I hate him.
00:38:02Hello?
00:38:03Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:38:04That's none of it.
00:38:05It's your accountant.
00:38:06I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:38:08I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:38:09Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:38:13Would that come 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, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:38:23Okay?
00:38:24He's not the man you think he is.
00:38:25Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:38:29And we need to find him at all costs.
00:38:32What kind of coward abandons 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, the red carpets.
00:38:41I don't want to be seen.
00:38:44I can't pretend.
00:38:45I just want him back.
00:38:47Honey, it's time to let him go.
00:38:50You don't love him anyway.
00:38:53Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:38:55What?
00:38:58How could you say something 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 when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:39:08But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:39:11Thanks, my husband.
00:39:12And the father of my son.
00:39:13Yeah, some husband.
00:39:15Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:39:16Wanting nothing to do with his child just because of a 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 I didn't say anything.
00:39:31When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:39:35Is there something you'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 you won't get mad.
00:39:47I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:39:50But no, it was all for your own good.
00:39:55When Preston left you, you 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.
00:40:12So that she's never alone again.
00:40:13It was all just some 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 for my career and my money.
00:40:29Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:40:30You were about to throw 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, it's for the best.
00:40:52No.
00:40:53He can't be gone.
00:40:54He can't.
00:40:54Yes, he is gone, and he is gone forever.
00:40:57He can't be.
00:40:58He can't be gone again.
00:41:17I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame Silverpuffs.
00:41:20That's already generated in Cyril Bux for its new writer, director.
00:41:24Speaking of which, there he is now.
00:41:27This is Daniel Thompson.
00:41:30Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:41:34What's going through your head tonight?
00:41:36Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own sheet.
00:41:38Nobody told me how.
00:41:40Oh, man.
00:41:40How uncomfortable these kind of shoes would be.
00:41:42I've heard this talk in the sequel.
00:41:44Yeah.
00:41:46My career has been a long time in the making,
00:41:48and I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:41:50I almost gave up the dream.
00:41:51But London, London lit the fire under me.
00:41:54And I feel like I found my voice, and it really is full steam ahead.
00:41:58Speaking of London, since you're an American writer director,
00:42:01will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:42:04Hollywood.
00:42:06Get out of the country.
00:42:08If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:42:11I will make your life a living hell.
00:42:15Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:16Daniel?
00:42:17Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:18Daniel?
00:42:19Daniel?
00:42:19Daniel?
00:42:19He'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,
00:42:34and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:42:36That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake,
00:42:39a two-time boarding logo award-winning actress
00:42:40and 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.
00:42:47Oh, my God, thanks for saying that.
00:42:52She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:42:54I know.
00:42:55This is so surreal.
00:42:56I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:42:58I can.
00:42:59The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:43:03Daniel, enjoy this and get used to compliments.
00:43:08There's already Oscar buzz.
00:43:09Fuck.
00:43:10I'm finished behind it.
00:43:11I'd rather dream it.
00:43:13You okay?
00:43:14You always do that when you're nervous.
00:43:16It's, um, I'll have it.
00:43:19Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:43:23Someone else just got a head start.
00:43:24All press is good press.
00:43:36Daniel becomes an award-winning director,
00:43:43and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:43:45You 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!
00:43:52How 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 in the first place, hmm?
00:44:01He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:44:03How could you say that?
00:44:04I mean, if anything, being 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, a mansion in the hills,
00:44:16an adorable kid.
00:44:17Melanie's not whining.
00:44:18And don't forget about Preston, your dream man.
00:44:22You have everything.
00:44:23I don't have him.
00:44:25Mom, I'm hungry.
00:44:27Go have the chef make something.
00:44:28No, I hate what she cooks, and 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 a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:44:40It was fun telling him what to do.
00:44:42When 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.
00:44:49Daniel's a doormat.
00:44:51Enough!
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 heartbroken over that man.
00:45:02Whoa.
00:45:03What's going on 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 because you're making fun of your father.
00:45:11And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:45:14It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:45:20Are you really going to get mad at 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 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.
00:45:32That's really, really low.
00:45:38Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:45:42Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:45:44To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:45:47Face it, Preston.
00:45:48You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:45:50And you're a fucking thief.
00:45:53Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:45:54You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:45:56I could have you arrested, but 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 like couples do.
00:46:05I want to marry you.
00:46:06We're legacy.
00:46:07Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:46:08Where's my birthday?
00:46:09Huh?
00:46:10What kind of flowers do I like?
00:46:12What's my favorite color?
00:46:13My favorite song?
00:46:14Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:46:16Oh, oh, wait.
00:46:17What's my fucking middle name?
00:46:19You don't give a shit about 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, babe, 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, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:46:44Get out.
00:46:45Now.
00:46:46Just give me your hand.
00:46:46Come on.
00:46:47No.
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.
00:46:54And 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.
00:47:14Daniel saved me from a ledge.
00:47:15And he saved me from you.
00:47:18Security!
00:47:20Security!
00:47:21Come on.
00:47:21Just let's talk about this.
00:47:22No.
00:47:23Come on.
00:47:24Celeste, do something.
00:47:26Sabrina!
00:47:27Come on, Sabrina!
00:47:28Was that really necessary?
00:47:30I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:47:33Is that all you care about?
00:47:35The fame?
00:47:36The headlines?
00:47:36The brand deals?
00:47:38God.
00:47:39You're supposed to be my mother first, not 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.
00:47:50If you ever want me to front up a camera again, then 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.
00:48:08In 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 idol 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, the one that gets made
00:48:26in L.A., not London.
00:48:27That's where you belong.
00:48:28To be honest, I already did L.A., didn't really end well.
00:48:32Let me guess.
00:48:33A girl?
00:48:34If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:48:38You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:48:41You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:48:44You've given 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, you can't run away from the past.
00:48:57You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:49:08Hey, 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 an America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:49:20Is this a personal story?
00:49:21Well, we get a hint at who the mystery woman is.
00:49:24Oh.
00:49:26She knows who she is.
00:49:28Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:49:31You arrogant little shit.
00:49:34I told you if you ever sat with Miss fucking Country, I would unleash a little of hell.
00:49:41It's Les Donovan.
00:49:43I need a favor.
00:49:44I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:49:47It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:49:52Mom, what are you doing?
00:49:57Did you just break my TV?
00:49:59Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:50:01You don't want to do that.
00:50:03You guys are kind of.
00:50:04It's called You Drive Me Crazy.
00:50:08He's back.
00:50:09Why didn't you tell me?
00:50:12Honey, I don't want 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.
00:50:35Honey, I...
00:50:38You 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.
00:50:51This is, um...
00:50:52It's another movie deal.
00:50:53I'll tell you about it after.
00:50:54Okay.
00:50:55Okay.
00:50:55Did you get his location?
00:51:09The Oaks.
00:51:108 p.m.
00:51:12After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
00:51:15He'll be a racist and supremeist life forever.
00:51:17She's not protecting me.
00:51:27She's protecting her business.
00:51:28I'm just a pawn.
00:51:30But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
00:51:33So 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 ten 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.
00:51:47I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved 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...
00:51:57It's over.
00:51:59It's over.
00:52:00I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks is pressing.
00:52:02He's switching off her.
00:52:09Oh.
00:52:10You 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!
00:52:33Sabrina, what are you doing here?
00:52:35I'm here to help you.
00:52:36Sabrina, you're making a scene.
00:52:39Let's go home.
00:52:39Sabrina?
00:52:40How could you?
00:52:41What?
00:52:41I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
00:52:44I begged and pleaded.
00:52:46Stop 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.
00:52:55Oh, my God.
00:52:56You're disgusting.
00:52:57I'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.
00:53:05I'm your mother.
00:53:08I only want what's best for you.
00:53:10What's best for me?
00:53:13You'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.
00:53:23Fired.
00:53:24No.
00:53:27No.
00:53:30No.
00:53:31You can't do this to me.
00:53:33Please.
00:53:33Please, sweetie.
00:53:34I have dedicated my life to you.
00:53:35You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
00:53:40I was just who you used to get to it.
00:53:42You 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.
00:53:58We'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.
00:54:16I have something to say.
00:54:18I'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.
00:54:36Apologize to your father.
00:54:37Do I have to?
00:54:38Who raised you?
00:54:39Who raised you?
00:54:41Cared for you?
00:54:42Packed your lunches when I was on set?
00:54:46Played 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.
00:54:55He gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
00:54:58And 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 still love you.
00:55:08Okay.
00:55:10Come on, Jackson.
00:55:10Let's go.
00:55:16I'm sorry, Daniel.
00:55:18For everything.
00:55:27I know that look, Daniel.
00:55:29You're thinking of going back to them.
00:55:30I just didn't know it would be this hard.
00:55:35They hurt you, Daniel.
00:55:37They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
00:55:42People can change.
00:55:45But that doesn't change the past.
00:55:49And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:55:56Daniel!
00:55:56Daniel!
00:55:57Daniel!
00:55:57Daniel!
00:55:57Daniel, is it true that the script got won you, Oscar?
00:56:00For both writing and directing Sad on the Shelf for ten years?
00:56:03Yes.
00:56:04I'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, Jen!
00:56:30Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
00:56:38We'll keep it up.
00:56:38How many more do we have today?
00:56:4140.
00:56:41Sorry.
00:56:42Hey, how many more do we have today?
00:56:4540.
00:56:46Sorry.
00:56:46Jesus.
00:56:47Hey, boy!
00:56:48How we looking?
00:56:49So, big admit, um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
00:56:53I mean, this film, this or dies, by the female lead.
00:56:56All right, here's the deal.
00:56:57The 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.
00:57:11That would be Emily Blake.
00:57:16Emily.
00:57:20Emily.
00:57:21Amazing, 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, so you watched it for the great Daniel Johnson.
00:57:30How's LA treating you?
00:57:32Oh, my God.
00:57:32That's tea, but way more traffic.
00:57:35But I am...
00:57:37I'm going to be back.
00:57:38Well, it's not English countryside.
00:57:39Yeah.
00:57:40But it suits you.
00:57:43You definitely belong here.
00:57:46I do miss you, though.
00:57:48It was fun.
00:57:49Playing pop.
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.
00:58:00I'm sorry, Emily.
00:58:00It 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.
00:58:18Give 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 going to do?
00:58:46That was quick.
00:58:55What are you doing here?
00:58:56I 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...
00:59:10Hi.
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.
00:59:19Are you okay?
00:59:22Yeah.
00:59:23It's an old wound that, um...
00:59:25never really healed.
00:59:27I understand.
00:59:31Daniel Johnson.
00:59:34Nice to meet you.
00:59:37Please.
00:59:44Now, you're ready.
01:00:13Bye.
01:00:14Bye.
01:00:16Bye.
01:00:17Bye.
