00:00:00And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:06That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:09Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:13Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the shelf for 10 years?
00:00:17Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I got my way back.
00:00:22I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:27Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:32You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking househusband, Daniel.
00:00:37Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:41If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:49I'll always love my son. He's a bully, and he learned to throw the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:00:54You still worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:00:55That was a long time ago.
00:00:58America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:00All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:04With her career standing by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:08You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:11She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her.
00:01:16So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:18I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:21And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:24If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:29This was the last one.
00:01:32Mom, Daniel.
00:01:35What's going on?
00:01:38What's going on?
00:01:40Honey!
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, ooh.
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.
00:02:03Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:05I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:10I 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.
00:02:16Yeah, and then he cheated on you.
00:02:17And 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.
00:02:23But 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
00:02:42that that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:02:45Ugh.
00:02:46I got something I need to tell you.
00:02:47I'll make it quick.
00:02:48This isn't easy, but I need...
00:02:49No, what is this?
00:02:51It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:02:52I don't want healthy food.
00:02:53I want chicken nuggets.
00:02:54Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:02:56You can't have that every day.
00:02:58It'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!
00:03:04I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:06Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:13I waited.
00:03:14I gave everything I had.
00:03:17But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:03:18And my self-absorbed wife
00:03:20would rather be with a man
00:03:21that almost ruined her life than me.
00:03:23Enough.
00:03:24Just enough.
00:03:26I want a divorce.
00:03:31I want a divorce.
00:03:36Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:03:39Huh?
00:03:40I want a...
00:03:43I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:44Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:46Jackson, honey,
00:03:47you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:03:49Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:03:51We'll get you some real food.
00:03:51Seriously.
00:03:56Seriously.
00:03:57Your 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 you 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.
00:04:39The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:04:41We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:04:43I can't.
00:04:44My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:04:45After all I've sacrificed,
00:04:47my scripts,
00:04:48my career,
00:04:49my future,
00:04:50all 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
00:04:56to 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 mine, too.
00:05:03Do you need more?
00:05:04No, no, no, no.
00:05:05You've already done so much.
00:05:07I'm just trying to help.
00:05:08I know.
00:05:09But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:05:12I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done,
00:05:15but 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 deserve more than what they put you through.
00:05:29Everyone, look, look, look, look.
00:05:31I gotta go.
00:05:32How do you?
00:05:35Who is it, mom?
00:05:36Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:05:38Our favorite leading man.
00:05:40Come on.
00:05:40Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart
00:05:48and is stealing it back again.
00:05:52Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:06:00All right, cut.
00:06:01That's a wrap, everyone.
00:06:02We 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.
00:06:14If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:06:17Destroyed me.
00:06:44What is that?
00:06:46Is that the one?
00:06:57Sabrina, don't!
00:06:59Stay back.
00:07:01I mean it.
00:07:02Sabrina, don't do this.
00:07:05Just...
00:07:06Just give me your hand.
00:07:08Just give me your hand.
00:07:08Just give me your hand.
00:07:12Shh.
00:07:18No!
00:07:20Daniel!
00:07:21I got you.
00:07:22No!
00:07:23No, let me go!
00:07:25I won't ever let you go.
00:07:30I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:07:33Nobody sees around me.
00:07:34I see you, Sabrina.
00:07:36I see all of you.
00:07:38And you're never going to be alone again.
00:07:39I'm so alone.
00:07:42Good to see you.
00:07:47Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:07:49About too long.
00:07:50What's you?
00:07:51Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:07:54Yeah, of course, babe.
00:07:54Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:07:56Are you kidding?
00:07:56Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:08:00Oh, there he is.
00:08:01The assistant.
00:08:02I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:08:05How did 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 sailor.
00:08:18Daniel.
00:08:19Oh.
00:08:19Don't embarrass me.
00:08:20No, it's fine.
00:08:21Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:08:25He's not just tough.
00:08:26He's Brett Stale tough.
00:08:27You think, you know?
00:08:28My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:08:30He doesn't let me do anything.
00:08:31Now that I'm here, we'll be able to have Ben some of Dad's rules.
00:08:34What are you saying?
00:08:35Huh?
00:08:35Yeah.
00:08:36Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:08:39That's fine.
00:08:40That's fine.
00:08:42Just relax, okay?
00:08:43Be nice.
00:08:51Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her
00:08:56when he breaks her heart again.
00:08:58Yeah, it's nice.
00:09:00But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:09:08Oh, careful.
00:09:09You all right?
00:09:12I'm still starving.
00:09:14Make me some food.
00:09:15Jackson, there's a nut over stew in the fridge.
00:09:17Stew?
00:09:18Ew.
00:09:19What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:09:20I told you a hundred times, I want chicken nuggets.
00:09:23Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just get him nuggets.
00:09:25I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:09:28Daniel.
00:09:29Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:09:31Okay.
00:09:32For real?
00:09:33Yeah.
00:09:33My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:09:36Donovan Cosmetics.
00:09:38I'm rich.
00:09:38Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:09:42I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:09:46You know, that was always your problem.
00:09:47You're so caught up on the morals.
00:09:49You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:09:50They were so dull.
00:09:51He's Mr. Eastwood.
00:09:52My cat won't let me have anything.
00:09:54Well, for you, Uncle Preston's a little bit of a rebel.
00:09:57So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:10:01Watch me.
00:10:02Here we go.
00:10:03What?
00:10:03To go.
00:10:04Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:10:05I don't mind.
00:10:06All of you insist.
00:10:07I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:10:08So.
00:10:10Okay.
00:10:10Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, that there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:10:15So.
00:10:15Anyways.
00:10:16Oh, Daniel, let's go.
00:10:18That's great.
00:10:18Gotcha.
00:10:19There we go.
00:10:20Oh.
00:10:21There's Paps.
00:10:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:10:24Last time.
00:10:26I promise.
00:10:28You're right.
00:10:28It is the last time.
00:10:31Guys.
00:10:33Hi.
00:10:34Yes.
00:10:35Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:10:43Contract line.
00:10:45So.
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?
00:10:55I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:11:05Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:11:12She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:11:17Sabrina Donovan?
00:11:18I could scream.
00:11:19I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:11:20Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking Ice.
00:11:24Oh, gee.
00:11:24I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:11:26The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:11:29Even my success is shattered by her fame.
00:11:31Wait.
00:11:31Are you two dating?
00:11:32Oh, well, actually.
00:11:33It's totally a date.
00:11:35All these years, I couldn't even be seeing what they're in public.
00:11:41Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:11:43They're not really a part of my brand.
00:11:45Your brand?
00:11:46It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:11:48You get it, right?
00:11:56So, you two are a thing?
00:11:58Well, I...
00:11:58Oh, it's okay, babe.
00:11:59We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:12:05This 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.
00:12:16Don't be silly.
00:12:17You have a dad.
00:12:18He's a sissy.
00:12:20That's what all the boys at school say.
00:12:21He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:12:24But Preston is awesome.
00:12:26He's an action spy.
00:12:28I wish he was my dad.
00:12:29My own son doesn't respect me.
00:12:32Well, we'll see if Preston's the type of daddy wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with a call girl.
00:12:37It's okay, buddy.
00:12:38Every spine's a partner in crime.
00:12:40If you won't be around, I'm in.
00:12:42That is if mom's cool 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?
00:12:51Come on.
00:12:52Let's get him a show.
00:12:52Come on.
00:12:52Come on.
00:12:59Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:13:09I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:13:11Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:13:17Daniel!
00:13:18You know, it's probably for the best.
00:13:20On the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:13:24Daniel, he's here.
00:13:25Did he see us?
00:13:26Is he looking over here?
00:13:27Fuck, that's not good.
00:13:28I was just doing it for Felicia.
00:13:29It didn't mean for him to see us.
00:13:31Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:13:32Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:13:35Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:13:37Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:13:38That's enough.
00:13:40What do I do?
00:13:42Well, that's it then.
00:13:44Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:13:45I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:13:48I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:13:51You're really good at that.
00:13:52Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:13:55A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:14:00I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch a bad press about the Donovans,
00:14:04I will come after you with everything I got.
00:14:07Daniel loves me.
00:14:07He has to understand.
00:14:09This is Hollywood.
00:14:09It's just part of the job.
00:14:10Daniel, I can explain.
00:14:18Daniel, what is this?
00:14:21I can't let her create a public scene.
00:14:23All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:14:25Are you going somewhere?
00:14:27Honey, oh, what a coincidence.
00:14:30We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:14:32Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:14:33A vacation?
00:14:34Finally, you're paying attention.
00:14:37Yeah, I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:14:39Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:14:41What are we supposed to do without you?
00:14:42Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:14:44That's not what I meant.
00:14:44Whoa.
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, just like any good husband would.
00:14:52Oh, I see.
00:14:53Is it me?
00:14:54Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:14:56I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:14:58I always knew you were the self-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.
00:15:06No, you know what?
00:15:07I'll go.
00:15:09And clearly she wants you.
00:15:10I'm willing 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 could pull up a chair and we can...
00:15:20I'm going to go back.
00:15:25Daniel!
00:15:27Oh, please.
00:15:29It's better than yours.
00:15:30Yeah.
00:15:33Oh!
00:15:33Oh, good.
00:15:35You're up.
00:15:37Um, after dinner, we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:15:41It's fun.
00:15:42Don't look at me like that.
00:15:44I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:15:46Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:15:50How lucky for him.
00:15:51He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:15:54Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:15:56Listen, man, I have had every opportunity to sleep with her, and nothing happened.
00:16:01You can trust me.
00:16:04Preston, I think you're the only problem.
00:16:06He needs to let you out.
00:16:07All right.
00:16:09Yeah, no, 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?
00:16:28My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:16:31I'm going to bed.
00:16:34I 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.
00:16:51God, 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...
00:17:00What?
00:17:02You know what?
00:17:03Fine.
00:17:05You two look great together.
00:17:06Daniel, I...
00:17:07Daniel, I...
00:17:17I meant to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:17:20Um...
00:17:22I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:17:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:17:32I was never the homemaker.
00:17:38Please, Daniel.
00:17:47I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:17:52If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:17:58I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:18:10Look at her now.
00:18:11Playing house for another man.
00:18:13If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:18:16There he is.
00:18:32God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:18:34Man.
00:18:35No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:18:37Life of a meal, let's turn a guess.
00:18:39Hmm.
00:18:40I got some.
00:18:42Yeah.
00:18:43What do you need?
00:18:43Oh, oh.
00:18:44Yeah, there you go.
00:18:45I don't need some of this shit.
00:18:46But I doubt you'll like it.
00:18:48Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:18:49Bold enough for a new Marvel movie.
00:18:54Hey, uh.
00:18:55You're not pissed off that your wife ended up carrying me last night, right?
00:18:59No?
00:18:59A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:19:02Why would I be threatened by that?
00:19:06It's finally time to make this act disappear.
00:19:09Mr. Eastwood, I want to play with the fish.
00:19:21My stupid dad won't let me.
00:19:22And it's unfair.
00:19:24That's a shame, huh?
00:19:24You know what?
00:19:25Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:19:26Here we go.
00:19:27Ooh.
00:19:28Ooh.
00:19:29No, it's not to play with that.
00:19:32You never let me do anything!
00:19:34Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:19:37You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:19:38It'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.
00:19:45Yeah?
00:19:46What's that supposed to mean?
00:19:47You're so annoying!
00:19:50Don't push.
00:19:55I said don't push.
00:19:56Go get a book or something.
00:19:57I'll just get your hands off him.
00:19:58He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man servant.
00:20:01I'm the house, you're 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 would.
00:20:10I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:20:13I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:20:15Ouch.
00:20:15Shh, I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:20:17So why don't you make this a little vacay of yours, Herman?
00:20:20Maybe it will be.
00:20:21But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:20:23You?
00:20:25Man of the house?
00:20:26Please.
00:20:26You're a pussy in an apron.
00:20:27I'd be embarrassed to call you a maiden,
00:20:29which less a dad or a husband.
00:20:31You're a Washington Packer.
00:20:32Still writing on all your old headlines.
00:20:33How are your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:20:35I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:20:37I'm looking for a star!
00:20:39A star?
00:20:39A star that needs his ex to bring it back into the spotlight.
00:20:43Jackson, come on.
00:20:43I don't want you hanging around this clowning.
00:20:45No, I'm not going.
00:20:46Preston's way cooler than you.
00:20:48Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:20:50You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:21:12Who was that?
00:21:13Daniel, what is happening?
00:21:21Who was that, Mom?
00:21:22Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:21:24You're so serious.
00:21:24You got to be pretty good, babe.
00:21:26What the hell, Daniel?
00:21:27I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:21:28I came in looking for a fight.
00:21:30I 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 we're in the public eye?
00:21:41What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:21:43What?
00:21:43Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:21:46Maybe I should go on.
00:21:47I'm sorry.
00:21:48No.
00:21:49Oh, my God.
00:21:50He's lying.
00:21:52You're a monster.
00:21:54And in front of your son?
00:21:55You have to be kidding.
00:21:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:21:57We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:22:01Come on.
00:22:02Clean us up.
00:22:04Soon, we won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:22:08She's mine now, Lizzie.
00:22:17Hello, 911.
00:22:18What's your emergency?
00:22:19I think I already...
00:22:21I didn't name it to her.
00:22:23Now.
00:22:27You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you
00:22:35with liquid.
00:22:36To be honest, that's...
00:22:37I could use a break from home.
00:22:39Trouble with the missus?
00:22:41Uh...
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:43Pretty obvious.
00:22:44Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:22:47I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:22:51With Preston Eastonwood.
00:22:53True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:22:56I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
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 hoisted.
00:23:09She was so sweet.
00:23:13Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:23:15No, it's...
00:23:17It's an old wound.
00:23:19I tore it, actually, um, 10 years ago.
00:23:22Daniel!
00:23:22Sweet and caring.
00:23:25So 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.
00:23:36No, you're my shitty girl.
00:23:41Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:23:43You once liked my short film.
00:23:44I have the script I've been sitting on.
00:23:45It 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?
00:24:06What?
00:24:07I've been busy.
00:24:07I 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, I...
00:24:23Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:24:28It is what it is.
00:24:30But, I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:24:33You even just hint at a relationship,
00:24:35and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:24:37And I think you should go for it.
00:24:38I 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.
00:24:46Seriously.
00:24:48I...
00:24:48I care about you.
00:24:52I don't know that.
00:24:54I've known you for 14 years.
00:24:56I know when you're angry.
00:24:57Really?
00:24:57I didn't think you paid attention.
00:24:59I pay attention?
00:25:01Since when do I not pay attention?
00:25:03She signed the papers without reading them.
00:25:06That's all this marriage ever wants to her.
00:25:07A headline.
00:25:08A performance.
00:25:09Sabrina.
00:25:14Sabrina, I'm gonna...
00:25:15You know what?
00:25:16I hate fighting.
00:25:17So, 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.
00:25:27You'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.
00:25:45Well, how about you make us some lattes, and 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.
00:25:56I would have melted in her hands.
00:25:59Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:26:00I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it was awful.
00:26:20I've had a lot of experience making it for you.
00:26:21I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:26:23That's not what I meant.
00:26:25I like it when you make it.
00:26:28I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:26:31I knew it.
00:26:33You aren't 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.
00:26:47No, that's not what I meant.
00:26:54Look what you made me do.
00:26:57Just leave it.
00:26:58I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:27:01And 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 have a fear.
00:27:10I'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:27:24What?
00:27:24Is 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, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's FBA.
00:27:34This is Show This Baby.
00:27:35Remember that.
00:27:36I'll text you the address of let's meet me.
00:27:37I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:27:50Oh, please.
00:27:51She's always been so secretive.
00:27:53I mean, this is her movie premiere, 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, well.
00:28:03If we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:28:05Come here.
00:28:06Jackson, we 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 might be your new daddy?
00:28:22Oh, I hope so.
00:28:23I really hope so.
00:28:23He's way cooler than my old-born real dad.
00:28:26Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:28:29Yeah, 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 a husband.
00:28:42Get 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.
00:28:57That's Preston Eastwood.
00:28:58How could Sabrina choose this flat over Preston?
00:29:01If there was a problem, listen to your business.
00:29:03I 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,
00:29:09because we'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, in street rags,
00:29:18abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:29:22That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:29:24It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:29:26And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:29:30This was all stunt, wasn't it?
00:29:32You were revolting.
00:29:34No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:29:35Hey.
00:29:37Why don't you watch her now?
00:29:39Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:29:42Yeah.
00:29:42Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:29:43Oh, yeah?
00:29:44What lesson is that, Preston?
00:29:45You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on us so that you can leech off her career?
00:29:49Hmm.
00:29:51Oh!
00:29:53What the hell?
00:30:09What happened?
00:30:10Oh my god, Daniel!
00:30:12What the hell happened?
00:30:14Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:30:15Are you okay?
00:30:16Look at her go.
00:30:18Hollywood's finest.
00:30:19Always performing when there's an audience.
00:30:21It's Daniel.
00:30:23He's a monster.
00:30:24He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:30:26Mommy!
00:30:27Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:30:29No.
00:30:30No, 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?
00:30:38Daniel.
00:30:40Is it true?
00:30:42Sabrina.
00:30:43Sabrina.
00:30:44Oh!
00:30:45Yeah, you got me in the ribs.
00:30:48I think one of them is broken.
00:30:49Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:30:54But Daniel.
00:30:57Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:31:09Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:31:11I, I have, I have to help Preston.
00:31:26Come on, Jackson.
00:31:32Daniel!
00:31:33I got you.
00:31:34Don't let me go!
00:31:35She's made her choice.
00:31:37There's no going back.
00:31:38We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:31:43Well, 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.
00:32:21Don't worry about it.
00:32:22Just try.
00:32:23I used to ache for her approval.
00:32:36Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:32:40Seriously?
00:32:41Sleep, mom.
00:32:43Yeah.
00:32:44I'm going to call the doctor, okay?
00:32:48What are you doing?
00:32:49I thought you were hurt.
00:32:50I think I'll pull through.
00:32:53So what are you doing?
00:32:58I've always wanted to.
00:33:00But mom, I know you want this.
00:33:01I see the way you look at me.
00:33:03Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:33:06I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:33:16What am I doing?
00:33:18Daniel is still injured.
00:33:19He should be home.
00:33:23Sabrina?
00:33:23I said get off.
00:33:34What?
00:33:35Hey, we can finally.
00:33:36I said get off.
00:33:38I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:33:40No, forget about him.
00:33:41Look, I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:33:45I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:33:49I mean, come on.
00:33:49Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:33:51Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:33:53What?
00:33:55Look, he's already moved on.
00:33:58No.
00:34:00What have I done?
00:34:01Where is he?
00:34:02What about me?
00:34:03You had a chance 10 years ago.
00:34:06I need to go take care of my husband.
00:34:07Hello?
00:34:14Excuse me.
00:34:15Excuse me.
00:34:16Hi.
00:34:17Have you seen my husband?
00:34:18Please.
00:34:19He was someone bleeding out.
00:34:20I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:34:24He didn't come back in the...
00:34:25Oh, no.
00:34:28God, Daniel, where are you?
00:34:30I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:34:33Please try again, Major.
00:34:35Oh, my God.
00:34:36Oh, my God.
00:34:36Come on, Daniel.
00:34:46Answer me.
00:34:52He's not gone.
00:34:53I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:34:55He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:35:05No.
00:35:08It's not possible.
00:35:10He will be back.
00:35:12No.
00:35:13Wait, it's all the assets.
00:35:24I'm zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:35:26He leaves all spousal support.
00:35:28No.
00:35:29No, 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.
00:35:41All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:35:57It 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.
00:36:04He 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,
00:36:12everything we've been through.
00:36:32I got you.
00:36:33No, let me go.
00:36:34Was I ever really paying attention?
00:36:40Daniel?
00:36:41No, it's Mom.
00:36:42Is everything okay?
00:36:43You sound pissed.
00:36:44Mom.
00:36:46Mom.
00:36:47Daniel.
00:36:48He just left us.
00:36:50Do you know where he is?
00:36:52We have to find him.
00:36:53We can check the hospital or the...
00:36:55Oh, honey.
00:36:57It's over.
00:36:58Daniel's not coming back.
00:36:59You knew?
00:37:00I'll come over in the morning
00:37:02and explain everything.
00:37:10I'm hungry.
00:37:12Dad!
00:37:12Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:37:15Jackson?
00:37:17I have something to tell you.
00:37:20Your dad.
00:37:23Your dad.
00:37:24He's left us.
00:37:26I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:37:28Yay, he's gone.
00:37:29He's gone.
00:37:31Why would you say that?
00:37:32He was so embarrassing.
00:37:33Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:37:34Mr. Eastwood?
00:37:36What did Preston say?
00:37:38He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:37:39should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:37:41and raising a young man.
00:37:43He was so lame and boring.
00:37:45Now he's gone.
00:37:47Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:37:49He can be my new dad.
00:37:50Jackson, you have a dad.
00:37:52And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:37:54Yeah, but I hate him!
00:38:01Hello?
00:38:02Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:38:04Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:38:05I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:38:07I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:38:08Large thumbs have been wired
00:38:10to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:38:12Was that done with your approval?
00:38:13No, but I'm not surprised.
00:38:15Flag his name.
00:38:16I want him frozen and cut off.
00:38:19Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you
00:38:21say Preston's name again, okay?
00:38:23He's not the man you think he is.
00:38:25Your father, the one who raised you
00:38:26and 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.
00:38:38I cancel everything.
00:38:39The interviews, the red carpets.
00:38:41I don't want to be seen.
00:38:43I can't pretend.
00:38:45I just want him back.
00:38:46Oh, honey.
00:38:48It's time to let him go.
00:38:50You don't love him anyway.
00:38:51And think about what Preston would do
00:38:54for your career.
00:38:57What?
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.
00:39:03He was there for me
00:39:05when Preston dropped me
00:39:06like I was nothing.
00:39:07But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:39:10He's my husband.
00:39:12And 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
00:39:17just because the contract ended?
00:39:18Contract?
00:39:20What 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
00:39:31at the restaurant the other day,
00:39:33you said that he was going on a trip.
00:39:35Is 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.
00:39:47I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:39:50But no,
00:39:51it was all for your own good.
00:39:55When Preston left you,
00:39:56you were distraught.
00:39:58I 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.
00:40:17It 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,
00:40:27my money.
00:40:28Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:40:33You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:40:37Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:40:38He kept you together.
00:40:40Where?
00:40:41Where did he go?
00:40:42I know he told you where he went.
00:40:44Where is he?
00:40:45You can do better than him.
00:40:47You are Sabrina Donovan,
00:40:49Hollywood starlet.
00:40:50Believe me,
00:40:50it's for the best.
00:40:52No.
00:40:52He can't be gone.
00:40:53He can't.
00:40:54Yes.
00:40:55He is gone,
00:40:55and he is gone forever.
00:40:57He can't be.
00:40:58He can't be gone again.
00:40:59I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame Silver Pops.
00:41:20That's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:41:23You can wish.
00:41:25There he is now.
00:41:26This is Daniel Johnson.
00:41:30Daniel,
00:41:30your film received the Palm Duel at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:41:33What's going through your head tonight?
00:41:35Honestly,
00:41:36I'm just trying not to trip over my own sheet.
00:41:38Nobody told me how.
00:41:39Oh,
00:41:40man,
00:41:40I look comfortable these shoes would be.
00:41:42I've had this talk in a sequel.
00:41:44Uh,
00:41:44yeah,
00:41:45um,
00:41:45God,
00:41:46my career has been a long time in the making,
00:41:48and I've been very honest about it,
00:41:49actually.
00:41:49I almost,
00:41:50I almost gave up the dream,
00:41:51but London,
00:41:53London lit the fire under me,
00:41:54and I feel like I found my voice,
00:41:55and it really is full steam ahead.
00:41:58Speaking of London,
00:41:59since you're an American writer-director,
00:42:00will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:42:04Hollywood.
00:42:05Get out of the country.
00:42:06If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:42:11that will make your life a living hell.
00:42:15Daniel?
00:42:27He's no good at bragging about himself,
00:42:29so I'll do it for him.
00:42:30Daniel is a true author,
00:42:32and a pretty genius,
00:42:34and it was a privilege to be his little lady.
00:42:36That's not a life compliment coming from Emily Blake,
00:42:39two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress,
00:42:41and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:42:43Well,
00:42:43I've heard that,
00:42:44uh,
00:42:44your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:42:46We'll never tell.
00:42:50Oh my God,
00:42:51it makes me sick.
00:42:52She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:42:54I know.
00:42:55This is so surreal.
00:42:56I mean,
00:42:56I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:42:58I can.
00:42:58The moment I read your script,
00:43:00I knew you were special.
00:43:02Daniel,
00:43:03enjoy this,
00:43:05and get used to compliments.
00:43:08There's already Oscar buzz.
00:43:09Fuck you.
00:43:10I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:43:13You okay?
00:43:15You always do that when you're nervous.
00:43:16I don't know if it's that one.
00:43:18I'll have it.
00:43:19Well,
00:43:20the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:43:23It's almost just got a head sound.
00:43:33I feel like
00:43:34what press is good press?
00:43:36Daniel becomes an award-winning director,
00:43:42and he's cheating on me
00:43:44with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:43:45He 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
00:43:59in the first place, hmm?
00:44:01He wanted to start his career
00:44:02under the Donovan name.
00:44:03How could you say that?
00:44:04I mean,
00:44:04if anything,
00:44:05being with me
00:44:06hurt his career.
00:44:07He's proving that
00:44:08to the whole world!
00:44:09Don't you see it?
00:44:10Sabrina,
00:44:11look at what you've got.
00:44:13A celebrated career,
00:44:14a mansion in the hills,
00:44:16an adorable kid.
00:44:17Melanie's not whining.
00:44:19And don't forget about Preston.
00:44:20You're a dream man.
00:44:22You have everything.
00:44:23I don't have him.
00:44:25Mom,
00:44:26I'm hungry.
00:44:27Go have the chef make something.
00:44:28No,
00:44:28I hate what she cooks,
00:44:29and I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:44:31Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:44:32Don't talk about him like that.
00:44:34He's your dad.
00:44:35No!
00:44:35Preston is my real dad now.
00:44:37Daniel's just the guy
00:44:38who made me snacks
00:44:39and cleaned the toilet.
00:44:40It was fun telling him
00:44:41what to do.
00:44:41When did he get so cruel?
00:44:43You see,
00:44:44even your own son
00:44:45thinks Daniel's a pathetic
00:44:46pushover.
00:44:46A 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?
00:44:59Don't tell me you are
00:45:00actually heartbroken
00:45:00over 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
00:45:06for no reason.
00:45:07I was just making fun
00:45:08of Daniel.
00:45:08No!
00:45:09I yelled at you
00:45:10because you're making fun
00:45:10of your father.
00:45:11And if you keep talking
00:45:12like that,
00:45:13I'm going to put you
00:45:13in a timeout.
00:45:14It's time that you
00:45:15stop acting like
00:45:15a spoiled little brat!
00:45:17Are you really
00:45:21going to get mad
00:45:22at Jackson
00:45:22for what?
00:45:23Making fun of that
00:45:23fucking loser?
00:45:24Really?
00:45:24Loser?
00:45:25Yeah.
00:45:26You haven't had a job
00:45:27in over a year,
00:45:28Preston.
00:45:28And you've been
00:45:29mooching off from me
00:45:30and ordering my staff
00:45:31around like you're
00:45:32their boss.
00:45:36That's fairly,
00:45:37really low.
00:45:38Especially after
00:45:39everything I've done
00:45:39to help you with your brand
00:45:40and keeping it from
00:45:41collapsing in the last year.
00:45:42Come on,
00:45:43we're America's power couple.
00:45:44To be a power couple,
00:45:45you both have to have power.
00:45:47Face it, Preston.
00:45:48You're using me
00:45:48to hide the fact
00:45:49that you're washed up.
00:45:50And you're a fucking thief!
00:45:53Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:45:54You've been stealing
00:45:54from me all year long.
00:45:56I could have you arrested,
00:45:58but 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
00:46:03merging things
00:46:04like couples do.
00:46:05I want to marry you.
00:46:06We're legacy
00:46:07Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:46:08When's my birthday?
00:46:09Huh?
00:46:10What kind of flowers
00:46:11do I like?
00:46:12What's my favorite color?
00:46:13My favorite song?
00:46:14Oh, what's my favorite
00:46:15goddamn movie?
00:46:15Oh, oh, wait.
00:46:17What's my fucking middle name?
00:46:19You don't give a shit
00:46:20about me.
00:46:21You don't love me.
00:46:22You don't even know me.
00:46:23This isn't a relationship.
00:46:25This is a publicity stunt.
00:46:27And you know what?
00:46:28I'm done.
00:46:29Get out.
00:46:30I don't want to
00:46:30ever see you again.
00:46:32We're over.
00:46:33We're over.
00:46:34Hey, hey, come on.
00:46:36Please.
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
00:46:41my security,
00:46:42all of this will get
00:46:43a lot of weird.
00:46:44Get out.
00:46:45Now.
00:46:46Just give me your hand.
00:46:47Come on.
00:46:47No.
00:46:48I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:46:50Nobody sees the real thing.
00:46:52I see you, Sabrina.
00:46:53I see all of you.
00:46:55And you're never
00:46:56going to be alone again.
00:46:57He truly knew me.
00:47:00He loved me.
00:47:01Every flaw.
00:47:03Every fear.
00:47:05Contract or not.
00:47:06He truly loved me.
00:47:08I saved you
00:47:09from social suicide.
00:47:10Saved me?
00:47:11You don't even know
00:47:12how ironic that is.
00:47:14Daniel saved me
00:47:15from the ledge.
00:47:15And he saved me
00:47:16from you.
00:47:18Security!
00:47:20Security!
00:47:21Just let's talk
00:47:22about this.
00:47:23No.
00:47:24Come 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
00:47:31a Hollywood A-lister
00:47:32and people's
00:47:33sexiest man alive.
00:47:34Is that all you care about?
00:47:35The fame,
00:47:36the headlines,
00:47:37the brand deals?
00:47:38God!
00:47:39You're supposed to be
00:47:40my mother first,
00:47:41not some money-grubbing manager.
00:47:43Sabrina,
00:47:44you are being dramatic.
00:47:45Of course I care about you.
00:47:47I love you.
00:47:49Then prove it.
00:47:50If you ever want me
00:47:51in front of a camera again,
00:47:52then you will help me
00:47:53get Daniel back.
00:48:00You'll have to forgive me,
00:48:05Mr. Lee.
00:48:06I'm kind of in shock
00:48:07right now.
00:48:08In film school,
00:48:09we were literally told
00:48:10to watch every single film
00:48:11that you ever produced.
00:48:12I mean,
00:48:13you know this.
00:48:13You're a legend.
00:48:15I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:48:16All right,
00:48:16let me cut to the chase.
00:48:17You're a powerhouse
00:48:18sitting idol
00:48:18in the wrong country.
00:48:19I appreciate the compliment,
00:48:20but I mean,
00:48:20I'm doing all right.
00:48:21I got projects.
00:48:22Come on!
00:48:22You're built for
00:48:23billion-dollar franchises,
00:48:24Hollywood blockbusters,
00:48:25the one that gets made in L.A.,
00:48:26not London.
00:48:27That's where you belong.
00:48:28To be honest,
00:48:30I already did all I
00:48:30didn't really end well.
00:48:32Let me guess.
00:48:33My girl?
00:48:34If by a girl,
00:48:35he means Hollywood royalty,
00:48:37Sabrina Donovan.
00:48:38You don't walk away
00:48:39from a gift like yours
00:48:40over some heartbreak.
00:48:41You can become a household name,
00:48:42and I can get you there.
00:48:44You're giving me
00:48:45a lot to think about.
00:48:45Three feature deals.
00:48:46$200 million budget each,
00:48:48creative control,
00:48:48and final cut approval.
00:48:50I don't know what to say.
00:48:50Just say yes.
00:48:51You have my number.
00:48:53Just don't keep me waiting.
00:48:54Just remember, Daniel,
00:48:55you can't run away from the past.
00:48:57You have to face it
00:48:58and 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
00:49:13about your first movie
00:49:14with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:49:16Of course.
00:49:16It's about a man
00:49:17who gets fucked over
00:49:18by America's sweetheart
00:49:18and comes out on top.
00:49:20Is this a personal story?
00:49:22Will we get a hint
00:49:23at who the mystery woman is?
00:49:24Oh, she knows who she is.
00:49:28Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:49:31Oh!
00:49:32You arrogant little shit.
00:49:34I told you,
00:49:35if you ever sat
00:49:35in this fucking country,
00:49:36I would unleash a little hell.
00:49:42It's Les Donovan.
00:49:43I need a favor.
00:49:44I need you to track down
00:49:45Daniel Johnson
00:49:45to find out where he'll be
00:49:46around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:49:49It's time for a little reunion
00:49:50with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:49:53Mom?
00:49:53What are you doing?
00:49:57Did you just break my TV?
00:49:59Can you give us a name
00:50:00for your upcoming film?
00:50:02You know,
00:50:02I'm not supposed to do that.
00:50:03You've been so kind of,
00:50:04um, it's called
00:50:05You Drive Me Crazy.
00:50:09He's back.
00:50:10Why didn't you tell me?
00:50:12Honey,
00:50:13I don't want you spiraling again.
00:50:14I'm not a fragile
00:50:15little girl anymore.
00:50:17I need to get on that movie.
00:50:18Absolutely not.
00:50:19You're not working
00:50:20for your ex-husband.
00:50:21If you don't get me
00:50:21an audition,
00:50:22then I will get a manager
00:50:23who will.
00:50:23Honey,
00:50:24I'm just looking out for you.
00:50:25He still loves me.
00:50:27He has to.
00:50:30I just need to talk to him.
00:50:32Let him go.
00:50:35Mom.
00:50:37Honey,
00:50:37I,
00:50:38you know,
00:50:39I just want
00:50:40what's best for you,
00:50:41right?
00:50:41I just don't want to see
00:50:42my little girl hurt again.
00:50:45I love you.
00:50:47I love you too.
00:50:52This is, um,
00:50:53it's another movie deal.
00:50:54I'll tell you about it after.
00:50:57Did you get his location?
00:51:09The Oaks,
00:51:118 p.m.
00:51:12After I'm done with him,
00:51:14Daniel Johnson won't just be
00:51:15blacklisted by Hollywood.
00:51:16He'll be erased
00:51:17from Sabrina's life forever.
00:51:18She's not protecting me.
00:51:27She's protecting her business.
00:51:29I'm just a pawn.
00:51:31But if she wants a scandal,
00:51:32she'll get one.
00:51:33It's so nice having you back.
00:51:36And I don't just mean from the UK.
00:51:38Yeah,
00:51:38it's been a rough couple of years,
00:51:39hasn't it?
00:51:40A couple.
00:51:41Daniel,
00:51:41it was 10 years of you
00:51:43slaving away for those people,
00:51:44if you can even call them that.
00:51:45You're healthy now.
00:51:46And I'm at the top of my career.
00:51:48I mean,
00:51:48yeah,
00:51:49there was a time that I,
00:51:50I love Sabrina,
00:51:51but I really thought I could make it work.
00:51:52The marriage,
00:51:53the kids.
00:51:54I mean,
00:51:54we really tried.
00:51:55I thought I could make it go for it,
00:51:56but it's over.
00:52:00It's over.
00:52:01I mean,
00:52:01let her chase whatever fantasy
00:52:02she thinks Preston used to be gone for.
00:52:10Oh,
00:52:11you haven't heard?
00:52:13She dumped him.
00:52:14It was all over People Magazine.
00:52:15She ended it when his star faded.
00:52:18Oh my God,
00:52:19what?
00:52:24Daniel!
00:52:26Stop!
00:52:34Sabrina,
00:52:34what are you doing here?
00:52:36I'm here to help you.
00:52:37Sabrina,
00:52:38you're making a scene.
00:52:39Let's go home.
00:52:40Sabrina?
00:52:41How could you?
00:52:41What?
00:52:42I just came to ask Daniel
00:52:43if he'd let you audition,
00:52:44but he said no.
00:52:45I begged and pleaded.
00:52:46Stop lying.
00:52:48I saw you bribe the waiter
00:52:49to drug Daniel's drink.
00:52:51And I'll bet you called the paparazzi too
00:52:53to catch him drugged out of his mind
00:52:55and ruined him.
00:52:56Oh my God.
00:52:56You're disgusting.
00:52:58I'm a manager, Daniel.
00:52:59Not anymore.
00:53:00Why did you become such a
00:53:02conniving,
00:53:03scheming snake?
00:53:04I don't even know
00:53:05who you are anymore.
00:53:07I'm your mother.
00:53:09I only want
00:53:09what's best for you.
00:53:11What's best for me?
00:53:13You've been controlling my life
00:53:15ever since you knew
00:53:16you could profit from it.
00:53:17that all ends today.
00:53:19That all ends today.
00:53:21You're fired.
00:53:24Fired.
00:53:25No.
00:53:28No.
00:53:31No.
00:53:32You can't do this to me.
00:53:34Please.
00:53:34Please, sweetie.
00:53:35I have dedicated my life to you.
00:53:37You dedicated your life
00:53:38to money
00:53:38and to fame.
00:53:39I was just who you used to get to it.
00:53:43You think you can survive
00:53:44on sheer talent?
00:53:45There's a thousand girls
00:53:46more talented than you
00:53:47waiting for their shot.
00:53:48I made you.
00:53:49You'd be nothing without me.
00:53:50I think she'll do just fine.
00:53:59We're done here, Mom.
00:54:01If you want any chance
00:54:03to be in Jackson's life
00:54:04or in mine,
00:54:05you'll leave now.
00:54:07Without another word.
00:54:17I have something to say.
00:54:18I'm sorry, Daniel.
00:54:23I'm sorry I took you for granted
00:54:24all of those years.
00:54:25I'm sorry I let my mom
00:54:27manipulate and use you.
00:54:29I'm sorry I brought
00:54:30Cresson into our home
00:54:32and poisoned our son
00:54:34towards you.
00:54:37Apologize to your father.
00:54:38Do I have to?
00:54:40Who raised you?
00:54:42Cared for you?
00:54:44Packed your lunches
00:54:45when I was on set?
00:54:47Laid with you
00:54:47when you had nightmares
00:54:48and coddled you
00:54:49when you were sick.
00:54:50He did.
00:54:51He loved you.
00:54:52But you treated him
00:54:53like he was nothing.
00:54:54I was wrong.
00:54:55Jackson,
00:54:56he gave us ten years
00:54:57of his life
00:54:58and we abused it.
00:55:00And now there is
00:55:01nothing we can do
00:55:02to take that back.
00:55:03I'm sorry, Dad.
00:55:04It's going to be okay, son.
00:55:08I love you.
00:55:10Okay.
00:55:11Come on, Jackson.
00:55:11Let's go.
00:55:17I'm sorry, Daniel.
00:55:20I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:55:20I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:55:20I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:55:21I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:55:28I know that look, Daniel.
00:55:30You're thinking of going back to them.
00:55:34I just didn't know it would be this hard.
00:55:36They hurt you, Daniel.
00:55:38They tore you to pieces
00:55:40and then just expected you
00:55:41to come running back.
00:55:44People can change,
00:55:46but that doesn't change the past.
00:55:48And the Oscar goes to
00:55:52Daniel Johnson
00:55:53for his original screenplay,
00:55:55Loving Her.
00:55:57Daniel!
00:55:58Daniel!
00:55:58Daniel!
00:55:59Daniel!
00:56:00Daniel, is it true
00:56:01that the script got one new Oscars
00:56:02for both writing and directing
00:56:03sound on the shelf for ten years?
00:56:04Yeah.
00:56:05I'll admit I got a little sideline,
00:56:07but I think I found my way back.
00:56:10But, okay, I'll tell you this.
00:56:13I don't think you can truly love someone else
00:56:15until you love yourself.
00:56:18Way to go, Jan!
00:56:36Thank you so much
00:56:37for considering me for this part.
00:56:39We'll keep it up.
00:56:40How many more do we have today?
00:56:46Forty, sir.
00:56:47Jesus.
00:56:48Hey, boy!
00:56:49How we looking?
00:56:50So, big of it.
00:56:51Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
00:56:54I mean, this film,
00:56:55this or dies by a female lead.
00:56:57All right, here's the deal.
00:56:58The studio's on my ass
00:56:59looking to lock in the lead today.
00:57:01Today?
00:57:02Are you fucking kidding me?
00:57:03That's why I love you, man.
00:57:04Cool under pressure.
00:57:05This movie is gonna blow the roof off.
00:57:10Oh, my God.
00:57:11All right, just bring me the next one.
00:57:12That would be...
00:57:14Emily Blake.

00:57:22Emily.
00:57:23Amazing, as always.
00:57:25You flew in all the way from London for this?
00:57:27Please.
00:57:28I was gonna miss a shot,
00:57:29so you wanted to shoot
00:57:29for the great Daniel Johnson.
00:57:30So, how's L.A. treating you?
00:57:33Oh, my God.
00:57:34That's tea, but way more traffic.
00:57:36But I am...
00:57:38I'm glad to be back.
00:57:39Well, it's not English countryside.
00:57:41Yeah.
00:57:41But it's good, too.
00:57:44You definitely belong here.
00:57:47I do miss you, though.
00:57:49It was fun.
00:57:50Playing pop,
00:57:52British starlet,
00:57:53American director.
00:57:54I kept waiting for us
00:57:56to become something real.
00:57:57Waiting for us
00:58:00to become something real.
00:58:01I'm sorry, homie.
00:58:03Just cast me,
00:58:04and we'll call it even.
00:58:06You...
00:58:06You were amazing,
00:58:07as always.
00:58:08It's just...
00:58:09It's just not quite
00:58:11what I'm looking for.
00:58:13I never was, was I?
00:58:15Anyways,

00:58:27Give me a copy,
00:58:31and you know what?
00:58:32Go get one for yourself, too.
00:58:35And be generous with the sugar.
00:58:41Oh, my God.

00:58:48That was quick.
00:58:49Okay.
00:58:49What are you doing here?
00:58:59I came to audition.
00:59:03Did you bring your representation?
