00:00:00He used to worship.
00:00:02And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:10That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:13Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:17Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:23Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:28Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:36Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:41You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:48Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:52If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing.
00:00:55The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:02I'll always love my son.
00:01:03But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:08You used to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:11That was a long time ago.
00:01:13America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:16All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:19When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:26You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:29She needs that now.
00:01:31Stay. Marry her.
00:01:34Love her.
00:01:36So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:38I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:41And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:45If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:52This was the last one.
00:01:55Mom. Daniel.
00:01:58What's going on?
00:02:02What's going on?
00:02:04Honey.
00:02:05I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:10If the paparazzi catch him next to you.
00:02:13But I need to go.
00:02:15I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:18Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:23Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.
00:02:28Then I will be free.
00:02:30Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:32Ugh.
00:02:33Can it wait?
00:02:34I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:36I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:41I saw Preston was there.
00:02:44I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:02:47I mean, we owe him.
00:02:48Yeah.
00:02:49And then he cheated on you.
00:02:50And I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:53I'm starving.
00:02:54When are we eating?
00:02:55Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:57But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:00No!
00:03:00I want to eat now!
00:03:02You always know the spot.
00:03:15He doesn't listen.
00:03:16Daniel, please.
00:03:18I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:23I've got something I need to tell you.
00:03:27I'll make it quick.
00:03:28This isn't easy, but I know.
00:03:29Ew!
00:03:30What is this?
00:03:31It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:33I don't want healthy food.
00:03:35I want chicken nuggets.
00:03:36Chicken nuggets.
00:03:37Chicken nuggets.
00:03:38You can't have that every day.
00:03:40It's not healthy for you.
00:03:42But I want that.
00:03:43Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:47You suck!
00:03:48I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:50Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:59I waited.
00:04:01I gave it everything I had.
00:04:03But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:06And myself as a wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:11Enough.
00:04:12Just enough.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:21I want a divorce.
00:04:27Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:30Huh?
00:04:32I want a di-
00:04:35I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:37Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:39Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:43Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:04:45We'll get you some real food.
00:04:51Seriously.
00:04:52Their only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:56I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:58What is this?
00:05:00Another contract?
00:05:02How big is the role?
00:05:03Who's directing?
00:05:04Who's directing?
00:05:05It's not a-
00:05:06Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:12Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:15I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:20Pull my weight?
00:05:21Yeah, you get it.
00:05:22Love you.
00:05:26I devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:05:30If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:33Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:36The movie's green, Link, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:46We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:49I can't.
00:05:50My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:52After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:05:59At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:03I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:07Hey, Mom.
00:06:07How you doing?
00:06:08Oh, good, dear.
00:06:10I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:14Do you need more?
00:06:15No, no, no, no.
00:06:16You've already done so much.
00:06:18I'm just trying to help.
00:06:20I know.
00:06:21But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:23Nikki, I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:32I am, Mom.
00:06:34And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:06:42You look wonderful, dear.
00:06:43You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:46Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:06:48I gotta go.
00:06:49Love you.
00:06:49What is it, Mom?
00:06:54Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:57Our favorite leading man.
00:06:59Come on.
00:07:05Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:13Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:19All right, cut.
00:07:25That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:27We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:31Sabrina was the rising star.
00:07:33I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:37Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:41If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:44I was just the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one
00:08:14You destroyed me.
00:08:18Rest in...
00:08:20Rest in the land.
00:08:33Sabrina! Don't!
00:08:36Stay back.
00:08:38I mean it.
00:08:39Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:43Just...
00:08:44Just give me your hand.
00:08:59No!
00:09:02Daniel!
00:09:03I got you.
00:09:05No! Don't let me go!
00:09:08I won't ever let you go.
00:09:09I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:18Nobody sees the real people.
00:09:19I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:21I see all of you.
00:09:24And you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:25Good to see ya!
00:09:35Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:09:37Oh, too long.
00:09:38Look at you!
00:09:39Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:43Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:44Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:46Are you kidding?
00:09:46Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:50Oh, there he is!
00:09:52The assistant!
00:09:54I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:57How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:02Stop!
00:10:03I can't believe my wife would invite the ex that she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:10Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:13Daniel!
00:10:14Oh.
00:10:14Don't embarrass me.
00:10:15No, it's fine.
00:10:17Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:21He's not just tough, he's Brett Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:10:25My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:28He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:30Now that I'm here will be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:33What are you saying, huh?
00:10:34Yeah.
00:10:35Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:39It's fine.
00:10:41It's fine.
00:10:42Just relax, okay?
00:10:44Be nice.
00:10:53Some people never change.
00:10:55But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:02Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:04But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the cell.
00:11:14Oh, I'm careful.
00:11:16You all right?
00:11:19I'm still starving.
00:11:21Make me some food.
00:11:22Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:25Stew?
00:11:25Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:29I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:32Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:35I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:39Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:42Well, babe, for real?
00:11:44Yeah, my makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:49Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:50I'm rich.
00:11:52Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:56I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:00See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:02You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:04You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:05They were so dull.
00:12:07Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:10Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:15So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:12:19My treat.
00:12:20Here we go.
00:12:21What to do?
00:12:22Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:24I don't mind.
00:12:25I'll let you insist.
00:12:27I mean, I'm already dressed, so.
00:12:30Okay.
00:12:32Oh, and I wouldn't bite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:12:36So, anyways.
00:12:38Come on, baby, let's go.
00:12:40Screw you.
00:12:41Gotcha.
00:12:41There we go.
00:12:43Oh.
00:12:44There's Paps.
00:12:46You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:48Last time.
00:12:49I promise.
00:12:52You're right.
00:12:53It is the last time.
00:12:56You guys?
00:12:59Hi.
00:12:59Jackson.
00:13:00Jackson.
00:13:06Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:11Contract's fine.
00:13:13It's over.
00:13:15Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:19I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:23Is there 10 years of heartbreak?
00:13:24I don't care if I walk away with that, but...
00:13:26Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:46She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:49Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:53I could scream.
00:13:54I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:56Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:00OMG, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:14:04The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:14:06Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:09Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:10Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:13All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:22Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:25You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:27Your brand?
00:14:28It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:30You get it, right?
00:14:40So, you two are a thing?
00:14:42Well, I...
00:14:43Oh, it's okay, babe.
00:14:44We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:55This is so going viral.
00:14:57I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:58It looks like more than dating.
00:15:01Is this your son?
00:15:02I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:05Don't be silly.
00:15:06You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:09That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:10He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:14But Preston is awesome.
00:15:17He's an action spy.
00:15:19I wish he was my dad.
00:15:21My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:24But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:15:27when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty
00:15:29with a call girl.
00:15:31It's okay, buddy.
00:15:32Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:34If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:36That is, if mom's cool with it.
00:15:39Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:41Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:43Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:47Come on.
00:15:48Let's go to Michelle.
00:15:49Now, that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:07I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:12Sabrina will end up on top,
00:16:14and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:19Daniel!
00:16:21You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:23From the sound of it,
00:16:24your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:27Daniel, he's here.
00:16:29Did he see us?
00:16:30Is he looking over here?
00:16:31Fuck, that's not good.
00:16:32I was just doing that for Melissa.
00:16:34I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:36Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:37Once that loser's out of the picture,
00:16:39Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:41Who cares about him, mommy?
00:16:43Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:45Jackson, enough.
00:16:46What do I do?
00:16:49Well, that's it then.
00:16:52Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:53I need to leverage your relationship with Preston,
00:16:55with the tabloids.
00:16:57I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:00You're really good at that.
00:17:01Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:06A one-way ticket,
00:17:08so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:12I know the contract is over,
00:17:13but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:17I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:20Daniel loves me.
00:17:21He has to understand.
00:17:22This is Hollywood.
00:17:23It's just part of the job.
00:17:26Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:28Daniel, what is this?
00:17:37I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:39All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:42Are you going somewhere?
00:17:45Honey, oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:48We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:51Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:52A vacation?
00:17:53Finally, you're paying attention.
00:17:55Yeah, I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:59Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:01What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:03Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:05That's not what I meant.
00:18:06Whoa, looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:09It's fine.
00:18:10Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit,
00:18:13just like any good husband would.
00:18:15Oh, look how you see.
00:18:17Is it me?
00:18:18Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:20I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:22I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:24You know what?
00:18:25Maybe I should go.
00:18:26I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:28No, please stay.
00:18:29I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:33No, you know what?
00:18:34I'll go.
00:18:36And clearly she wants you.
00:18:37Going to dance this soon.
00:18:39Daniel, wait.
00:18:41I won't ever let you go.
00:18:43He won't leave.
00:18:44He promised.
00:18:46It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:48We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:51I'm going to go back.
00:18:52Daniel!
00:19:00Let them here.
00:19:01This is...
00:19:02Yeah.
00:19:04Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:19:05Oh!
00:19:07Oh, good.
00:19:08You're up.
00:19:10Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:15It was fun.
00:19:16Don't look at me like that.
00:19:18I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:21Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:26How lucky for him.
00:19:27He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:31Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:35Listen, Matt.
00:19:35I have had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:40You can trust me.
00:19:43Preston, I think you're...
00:19:45You need to go right now.
00:19:47All right.
00:19:49Oh, man.
00:19:50Daniel, seriously.
00:19:52Listen, man.
00:19:52I...
00:19:53When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:58I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:20:02Just ignore him.
00:20:03He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:05No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:08Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:11Jealous?
00:20:13My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:16Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:17You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:28That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house
00:20:33husband.
00:20:34Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:40God.
00:20:41God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:43Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:50No, it's not like that.
00:20:52I...
00:20:53What?
00:20:55You know what?
00:20:56Fine.
00:20:59You two look great together.
00:21:01Daniel, I...
00:21:13And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:21Um...
00:21:22I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:32I was never the homemaker.
00:21:39Please, Daniel.
00:21:43I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:00If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:03I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:06Look at her now.
00:22:20Playing house for another man.
00:22:22If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:26There he is.
00:22:45God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:22:48Man.
00:22:49No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:52Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:53I got some.
00:22:58What do you mean?
00:22:59Oh, oh.
00:23:00Yeah, here you go.
00:23:02I'd offer you some of this shit, but...
00:23:03I doubt you'll like it.
00:23:05Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:07Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:12Hey, uh...
00:23:13You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:18No.
00:23:19A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:22Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:24It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:40What's up, Jackson?
00:23:42Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:44I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:47And it's unfair!
00:23:49That's a shame, huh?
00:23:50You know what?
00:23:50Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:52Here we go.
00:23:54Ooh.
00:23:55No!
00:23:57Not to play with that.
00:23:59You never let me do anything!
00:24:02Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:05You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:07It's not about the money.
00:24:08It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:11Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:24:13bad examples.
00:24:15Yeah?
00:24:16What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:18You're so annoying!
00:24:21Don't push.
00:24:23I said don't push.
00:24:28Go get a book or something.
00:24:30Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:32He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-server.
00:24:34I'm not going to kill you.
00:24:35God, what the hell is he?
00:24:36You just shot me.
00:24:40Call it a lesson.
00:24:41I'm teaching a kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:43He's not!
00:24:43You're a kid.
00:24:44I wish I was.
00:24:46I hope Mom buries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:49I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:24:51Ouch.
00:24:52I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:24:54So why don't you make this little vacay yours?
00:24:57Maybe it will be.
00:24:58But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:02You?
00:25:02Man of the house, please.
00:25:05You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:07I'd be embarrassed to call you a maiden, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:11And you're washed up, Pat.
00:25:12Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:14How are your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:16I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:25:19I'm a fucking star.
00:25:20A star?
00:25:21A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:25Jackson, come on.
00:25:26I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:28No, I'm not going.
00:25:30Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:32Preston, Preston, Preston.
00:25:49You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:01What was that?
00:26:09Daniel!
00:26:10What is happening?
00:26:12It was Dad, Mom.
00:26:13Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:26:15What?
00:26:16I'm so scared.
00:26:17That would be pretty good, babe.
00:26:17What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:20I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:21I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:23What?
00:26:23I didn't?
00:26:24Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:26You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:28I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:30He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:32It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:26:33Bro, up.
00:26:34Remember where in the public eye?
00:26:37What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:39What?
00:26:39Everyone knows your precious press had attacked me?
00:26:43Maybe I should go.
00:26:44I'm sorry.
00:26:45No.
00:26:46Oh, my God.
00:26:47He's lying.
00:26:50You're a monster.
00:26:52And in front of your son?
00:26:54You have to be kidding.
00:26:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:57Sure.
00:26:59We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:02Clean this up.
00:27:05Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:08Oh, she's mine now, loser.
00:27:19Hello?
00:27:21What's your emergency?
00:27:23I'm waiting now.
00:27:24I think I hit an hour.
00:27:26I need an ambulance now.
00:27:28Now.
00:27:28You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you
00:27:43with liquid.
00:27:43To be honest, that's, I could use a break from home.
00:27:47Trouble with the missus?
00:27:51Uh, yeah.
00:27:53Pretty obvious.
00:27:54Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:57I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.
00:28:05True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:09I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.
00:28:11You said, um, a couple?
00:28:14I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official.
00:28:20She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:24She was so sweet.
00:28:29Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:32No, it's...
00:28:35It's my wound.
00:28:37I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:40Daniel!
00:28:42Sweet and caring.
00:28:45So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:48He only had to break her heart to get it, and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:58Fuck it!
00:29:00Let me get my shit in, y'all.
00:29:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:06You once liked my short film.
00:29:07I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:09It needs the right producer.
00:29:19I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:22Where have you been?
00:29:26I kept calling.
00:29:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:30Huh?
00:29:35What?
00:29:35I've been busy.
00:29:36At least I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:38Uh, seriously?
00:29:40Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:46Yeah.
00:29:48That's what you want to call it?
00:29:50I...
00:29:51I just...
00:29:52I'm sorry.
00:29:54I...
00:29:55Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:30:02It is, but it is.
00:30:04But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:08You even just hint at a relationship, and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:12And I think you should go for it.
00:30:14I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:17But I just...
00:30:19I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:24Seriously.
00:30:25I...
00:30:26I care about you.
00:30:31I love it.
00:30:34I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:36I know when you're angry.
00:30:37Really?
00:30:38I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:39I pay attention.
00:30:42Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:45She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:48That's all this marriage ever wants to her.
00:30:50A headline.
00:30:51A performance.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:58Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:59You know what?
00:31:00I hate fighting.
00:31:02So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:05I was thinking.
00:31:06We could revisit your script.
00:31:09I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14You tell me you finally read it?
00:31:16Well, yeah.
00:31:17The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:31:21The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:24I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:25Me and you.
00:31:27The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:29I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:35A long time ago.
00:31:37Well, how about you make us some lattes, and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves
00:31:42into the script.
00:31:43Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:45There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:50I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:53Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:55I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it was awful.
00:32:17Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you, and I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:22That's not what I meant.
00:32:25I like it when you make it.
00:32:26I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:32I knew it.
00:32:34You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:37I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:41God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:46Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:49It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:51No, Daniel.
00:32:52No, that's not what I meant.
00:32:54Look what you made me do.
00:33:02Just leave it.
00:33:05I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:09And what?
00:33:10It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:12I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:15And look what I get for it.
00:33:17You know what?
00:33:18Forget it.
00:33:19I have a premiere.
00:33:20Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:24What?
00:33:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:40Yeah.
00:33:40Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:41Not quite.
00:33:42That was the divorce contract.
00:33:44But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize our entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:48Hey, this is showbiz, baby.
00:33:50Remember that.
00:33:51I'll text you the address of where's Mimi.
00:33:53I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:09Oh, please.
00:34:10She's always been so secretive.
00:34:12I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:24Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:28Come here.
00:34:32Jackson!
00:34:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:36Do you know where she is?
00:34:37Or who she's with?
00:34:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:40He's been staying with us.
00:34:42Oh, really?
00:34:45Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:48Oh, I hope so.
00:34:49I really hope so.
00:34:50He's way cooler than my old-born real dad.
00:34:54Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:57Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:06What are you doing here?
00:35:08You never come to these things.
00:35:10Oh, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:12Get lost!
00:35:14You embarrass us!
00:35:16Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:18I'm your father.
00:35:19I wish you never were my dad!
00:35:24Is there a problem?
00:35:30Oh, my God.
00:35:31That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:33How could Sabrina choose this flat over Preston?
00:35:36If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:39I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:40You're a pathetic loser!
00:35:42Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:43You should probably listen to your kid and head out, because I'm starting to make a scene.
00:35:49I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:51That's not what I see.
00:35:52You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and pit a fight with an A-lister.
00:36:01That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:04It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:07And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:11This was all the stuff, wasn't it?
00:36:14You were revolting.
00:36:16No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:18Hey.
00:36:20How do you watch her now?
00:36:22Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:26Yeah.
00:36:27Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:28Oh, yeah?
00:36:29What lesson's that, Preston?
00:36:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:34What the hell?
00:36:59What happened?
00:37:01Oh, my God.
00:37:02Daniel.
00:37:03What the hell happened?
00:37:05Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:07Are you okay?
00:37:08Look at her go.
00:37:10Hollywood's finest.
00:37:12Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:15It's Daniel.
00:37:16He's a monster.
00:37:17He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:20Mommy, Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:24No.
00:37:25No, that's not true.
00:37:26If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:31Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:35Daniel.
00:37:37Is that true?
00:37:40Sabrina.
00:37:42Oh!
00:37:44Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:47I think one of them is broken.
00:37:48Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:37:55But Daniel.
00:37:58Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:38:02Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:38:15I...
00:38:16I have...
00:38:18I have to help Preston.
00:38:19Come on, Jack.
00:38:41Daniel!
00:38:42I got you.
00:38:43Don't let me go!
00:38:45She's made her choice.
00:38:47There's no going back.
00:38:49We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:38:55Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:39:06Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:09I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:11There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:16Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:17In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:20If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:41Don't worry about it.
00:39:43Just try.
00:39:43I used to beg for her approval.
00:40:00Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:40:04Seriously?
00:40:06Stay back.
00:40:07I don't know what you did.
00:40:09I'm going to call the doctor.
00:40:11Hey.
00:40:11What are you doing?
00:40:15I thought you were hurt.
00:40:16I think I'll pull through.
00:40:24So what are you doing?
00:40:26I've always wanted to.
00:40:28Come on.
00:40:29I know you want this.
00:40:30I see the way you look at me.
00:40:32Now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:40:36I could finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:38What am I doing?
00:40:50Daniel is still injured.
00:40:52He should be home.
00:40:56Sabrina?
00:40:57Kristen, get off.
00:41:10What?
00:41:11Babe, we can finally come on.
00:41:13I said get off.
00:41:14What?
00:41:15I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:17No, forget about him.
00:41:18Look.
00:41:19I love Jackson and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:24I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:28I mean, come on.
00:41:28Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:41:31Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:35Look.
00:41:36He's already moved on.
00:41:39No.
00:41:40No.
00:41:41What have I done?
00:41:43Where is he?
00:41:44What about me?
00:41:46You had your chance 10 years ago.
00:41:49I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:57Hello?
00:41:59Excuse me.
00:42:00Excuse me.
00:42:01Hi.
00:42:02Have you seen my husband?
00:42:04Please.
00:42:05He was the one bleeding out.
00:42:06I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:42:10He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:12I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:22Please try again later.
00:42:23What have I done?
00:42:36Come on, Daniel.
00:42:38Answer me.
00:42:39He's not gone.
00:42:47I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:57He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:43:05It's not possible.
00:43:07He will be back.
00:43:09No.
00:43:10No.
00:43:22Wait, it's all the assets.
00:43:24Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:27The waves all spousal support.
00:43:29No.
00:43:30No, he can't leave me.
00:43:32He can't do this to me.
00:43:34I won't sign off on him.
00:43:35No.
00:43:35No.
00:43:35No.
00:43:36No.
00:43:36No.
00:43:36No.
00:43:36No.
00:43:37No.
00:43:37No.
00:43:37No.
00:43:38All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:43:50No.
00:43:51No.
00:43:52No.
00:43:53No.
00:43:54No.
00:43:55No.
00:43:56No.
00:43:57No.
00:43:58No.
00:43:59No.
00:44:00No.
00:44:01No.
00:44:02No.
00:44:03No.
00:44:04No.
00:44:05No.
00:44:06No.
00:44:07This can't be.
00:44:08It's not us.
00:44:09Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:44:11My mom will look it over anyways.
00:44:13He loves me.
00:44:15He loves Jackson.
00:44:17He wouldn't just leave us.
00:44:19We're his family.
00:44:20And after all these years, everything we've been through.
00:44:24I got you.
00:44:48Don't let me go!
00:44:51Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:54Daniel?
00:44:58No, it's mom.
00:44:59Is everything okay?
00:45:01You sound pissed.
00:45:01Mom.
00:45:04Mom.
00:45:05Daniel.
00:45:07He just left us.
00:45:10Do you know where he is?
00:45:12We have to find him.
00:45:13We can check the hospital or the...
00:45:15Oh, honey.
00:45:17It's over.
00:45:19Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:21You knew?
00:45:22I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:45:33I'm hungry!
00:45:35Dad!
00:45:36Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:45:39Jackson?
00:45:40I have something to tell you.
00:45:46Your dad.
00:45:49Your dad.
00:45:51He's left us.
00:45:53I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:56Yay!
00:45:56He's gone!
00:45:57He's gone!
00:45:58Why would you say that?
00:46:01He was so embarrassing.
00:46:02Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:46:04Mr. Eastwood?
00:46:06What did Preston say?
00:46:07He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets than raising a young man.
00:46:14He was so lame and boring.
00:46:17Now he's gone.
00:46:18Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:46:21He can be my new dad.
00:46:22Jackson, you have a dad.
00:46:25And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:46:28Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:36Hello?
00:46:37Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:39Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:41I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:43I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:44Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:46:49Was that done with your approval?
00:46:50No, but I'm not surprised.
00:46:53Flag his name.
00:46:54I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:58Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:47:02Okay?
00:47:03He's not the man you think he is.
00:47:05Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:47:09And we need to find him at all costs.
00:47:12What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:47:16It's despicable.
00:47:17I can't do this anymore.
00:47:20I'll cancel everything.
00:47:22The interviews and the red carpets.
00:47:25I don't want to be seen.
00:47:27I can't pretend.
00:47:29I just want him back.
00:47:32Honey, it's time to let him go.
00:47:35You don't love him anyway.
00:47:38Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:41What?
00:47:45How could you say something like that?
00:47:47Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:50He cares for me.
00:47:51He sees me.
00:47:52He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:57But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:48:00Daniel's my husband.
00:48:02And the father of my son.
00:48:04Yeah, some husband abandoning you without a moment's notice, wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended?
00:48:11Contract?
00:48:13What contract?
00:48:14What are you talking about?
00:48:21Forget it.
00:48:21Forget it.
00:48:23Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:24When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:30Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:32Please.
00:48:33I just want the truth.
00:48:35Mom.
00:48:36Fine.
00:48:39I will tell you the truth.
00:48:41But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:45I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:48:49But know it was all for your own good.
00:48:55When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:48:58I had to save you.
00:49:00She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:49:04You've always been there for her.
00:49:06From film school to now, I've seen it.
00:49:09She needs you.
00:49:11Stay.
00:49:12Marry her.
00:49:13Love her.
00:49:14So that she's never alone again.
00:49:22It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:26How could you do this to me?
00:49:29I wanted to protect you.
00:49:30You wanted to control me.
00:49:32All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:36Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:42You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:49:46Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:48He kept you together.
00:49:50Where?
00:49:51Where did he go?
00:49:52I know he told you where he went.
00:49:54Where is he?
00:49:55You can do better than him.
00:49:58You are Sabrina Donovan.
00:50:00Hollywood starlet.
00:50:02Believe me, it's for the best.
00:50:04No.
00:50:05He can't be gone.
00:50:06He can't.
00:50:07Yes.
00:50:08He is gone.
00:50:09And he is gone forever.
00:50:11He can't be.
00:50:12He can't be gone.
00:50:13He can't.
00:50:14I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of Howe, the Tame of Silver Fox, that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:50:28Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:47Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:55What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:58Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own feet.
00:51:01Nobody told me how.
00:51:02Oh, man.
00:51:03How comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:05I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:07Well, yeah, my career has been a long time in the making, and I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:15I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:17But London, London lit the fire under me, and I feel like I found my voice, and it really is full steam ahead.
00:51:25Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:33Hollywood.
00:51:35Get out of the country.
00:51:36If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:51:46Daniel?
00:52:01He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:52:04Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius, and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:52:12That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:52:20Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:52:24We'll never tell.
00:52:25She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:33I know, jeez.
00:52:35This is so surreal.
00:52:36I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:52:38I can.
00:52:39Daniel, the moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:52:44Daniel, enjoy this.
00:52:48And get used to compliments.
00:52:50There's already Oscar buzz.
00:52:52Fuck.
00:52:53Finish me out.
00:52:54I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:58You okay?
00:52:59You always do that when you're nervous.
00:53:01I know, it's, um, I'll have it.
00:53:04Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:53:09Silver's just got a head start.
00:53:22I think our press is good press.
00:53:25Daniel becomes an award-winning director and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:38He can't do this to me!
00:53:40Sabrina.
00:53:41You don't need him.
00:53:42Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:44How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:47Move on?
00:53:49Please, honey.
00:53:50He is using her.
00:53:53Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place?
00:53:55Hmm?
00:53:55He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:58How could you say that?
00:53:59I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:54:03He's proving that to the whole world!
00:54:06Don't you see it?
00:54:07Sabrina.
00:54:09Look at what you've got.
00:54:10A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills, an adorable kid.
00:54:16Well, when he's not whining.
00:54:18And don't forget about Preston.
00:54:20Your dream man.
00:54:21You have everything.
00:54:23I don't have him.
00:54:26Mom, I'm hungry.
00:54:27Go have the chef make something.
00:54:29No, I hate what she cooks.
00:54:31And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:54:33Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:34Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:36He's your dad.
00:54:38No!
00:54:38Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:40Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:44It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:45When did he get so cruel?
00:54:48You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:52A doormat.
00:54:54Daniel's a doormat!
00:54:55Daniel's a doormat!
00:54:57Enough!
00:54:58You little shit!
00:55:01Enough!
00:55:02Just enough!
00:55:04Sabrina?
00:55:05What's gotten into you?
00:55:07Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:55:10Whoa.
00:55:12What's going on here?
00:55:13This room feels really tense.
00:55:15Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:55:17I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:55:18No!
00:55:19I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:55:22And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:55:25It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:55:29Hey, man.
00:55:34Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:38Really?
00:55:38Loser?
00:55:39Yeah.
00:55:40You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:55:43And you've been mooching off from me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:52That's really, really low.
00:55:54Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing
00:55:58in the last year?
00:56:00Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:56:02To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:56:05Face it, Preston.
00:56:07You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:56:10And you're a fucking thief.
00:56:12Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:56:14You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:56:17I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:56:20Because you know what?
00:56:21Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:22It's not like that, okay?
00:56:25Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:56:27I don't want to marry you.
00:56:29We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:32What's my birthday?
00:56:33Huh?
00:56:34What kind of flowers do I like?
00:56:36What's my favorite color?
00:56:37My favorite song?
00:56:38Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:41Oh, oh wait.
00:56:42What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:44You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:47You don't love me.
00:56:48You don't even know me.
00:56:50This isn't a relationship.
00:56:52This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:55And you know what?
00:56:56I'm done.
00:56:57Get out.
00:56:58I don't want to ever see you again.
00:57:01We're over.
00:57:02We're over.
00:57:04No, babe, babe.
00:57:04Come on, please.
00:57:05Please, I love you.
00:57:06Just think about it.
00:57:08Look at the press.
00:57:09What this will look like.
00:57:11If I have to call my security,
00:57:13all of this will get a lot of weird.
00:57:15Get out.
00:57:16Hey, just...
00:57:16Now.
00:57:18Just give me your hand.
00:57:18Come on.
00:57:19No.
00:57:20I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:57:23Nobody sees the real thing.
00:57:25I see you, Sabrina.
00:57:27I see all of you.
00:57:29And you're never...
00:57:30I'm not.
00:57:31He truly loved me.
00:57:33I see this man alive.
00:57:34Is that all you care about?
00:57:41You'll have to forgive me, Miss Jolie.
00:57:43I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:45In film school,
00:57:47we were literally told to watch
00:57:48every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:51I mean, you know this.
00:57:53You're a legend.
00:57:54I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:55All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:57:57You're a powerhouse sitting idol
00:57:58in the wrong country.
00:58:00I appreciate the compliment,
00:58:01but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:58:02I got projects.
00:58:03Come on.
00:58:04You're built for billion dollar franchises,
00:58:06Hollywood blockbusters,
00:58:07the one that gets made in LA,
00:58:09not London.
00:58:10That's where you belong.
00:58:12To be honest, I already did LA.
00:58:13It didn't really end well.
00:58:16Let me guess.
00:58:17My girl?
00:58:18If by a girl,
00:58:20he means Hollywood royalty,
00:58:22Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:23You don't walk away from a gift like yours
00:58:25over some heartbreak.
00:58:26You can become a household name,
00:58:28and I can get you there.
00:58:30You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:32Three picture deal.
00:58:33200 million dollar budget each.
00:58:35Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:37I don't know what to say.
00:58:38Just say yes.
00:58:39You have my number.
00:58:40Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:43Just remember, Daniel,
00:58:44you can't run away from the past.
00:58:46You have to face it
00:58:47and tell the fuck off.
00:59:00Hey, it's been a while.
00:59:03Can we talk?
00:59:04Daniel, can you give us a hint
00:59:06about your first movie
00:59:07with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:09Of course.
00:59:09It's about a man
00:59:10who gets fucked over
00:59:11by America's sweetheart
00:59:12and comes out on top.
00:59:14Is this a personal story?
00:59:17Will we get a hint
00:59:17at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:20Oh,
00:59:21she knows who she is.
00:59:24Um,
00:59:25I'll leave it at that.
00:59:27Oh!
00:59:28You arrogant little shit.
00:59:31I told you
00:59:32if you ever set foot
00:59:33in this fucking country,
00:59:34I would unleash
00:59:35a world of hell.
00:59:41It's Les Donovan.
00:59:42I need a favor.
00:59:44I need you to track down
00:59:45Daniel Johnson
00:59:45and find out where he'll be
00:59:46around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:59:50It's time for a little reunion
00:59:51with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:54Mom?
00:59:55What are you doing?
00:59:56Did you just break my TV?
01:00:02Can you give us a name
01:00:03for your upcoming film?
01:00:05You know how
01:00:06I'm supposed to do that?
01:00:07You've been so kind, though.
01:00:08Um,
01:00:08it's called
01:00:09You Drive Me Crazy.
01:00:13He's back.
01:00:16Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:18Honey,
01:00:19I didn't want you
01:00:19spiraling again.
01:00:21I'm not a fragile
01:00:21little girl anymore.
01:00:23I need to get on that movie.
01:00:25Absolutely.
01:00:26not.
01:00:27You're not working
01:00:27for your ex-husband.
01:00:29If you don't get me
01:00:29an audition,
01:00:30then I will get
01:00:31a manager who will.
01:00:32Oh, honey.
01:00:33I'm just looking out
01:00:34for you.
01:00:34He still loves me.
01:00:37He has to.
01:00:39I just need to
01:00:40talk to him.
01:00:42Let him go.
01:00:45Mom.
01:00:46Honey, I just want
01:00:51what's best for you, right?
01:00:53I just don't want to see
01:00:54my little girl hurt again.
01:00:57I love you.
01:00:59I love you, too.
01:01:03Here we go.
01:01:04This is, um,
01:01:07it's another movie deal.
01:01:09I'll tell you about it
01:01:10after.
01:01:10Did you get his location?
01:01:28The Oaks.
01:01:298 p.m.
01:01:31After I'm done with him,
01:01:33Daniel Johnson won't just be
01:01:34blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:35He'll be erased
01:01:37from Sabrina's life forever.
01:01:47She's not protecting me.
01:01:50She's protecting her business.
01:01:52And I'm just a pawn.
01:01:54But if she wants a scandal,
01:01:55she'll get one.
01:01:58So nice having you back.
01:02:00And I don't just mean
01:02:01from the UK.
01:02:02Yeah, it's been a rough
01:02:03couple years, hasn't it?
01:02:04A couple?
01:02:06Daniel, it was 10 years
01:02:08of you slaving away
01:02:09for those people,
01:02:10if you can even
01:02:10call them that.
01:02:11You're healthy now.
01:02:13And I'm at the top
01:02:13of my career.
01:02:15I mean, yeah,
01:02:15there was a time
01:02:16that I loved Sabrina,
01:02:18but I really thought
01:02:19I could make it work.
01:02:20The marriage, the kids.
01:02:22I mean, we really tried.
01:02:24I thought I could
01:02:24make it go for it,
01:02:25but, um,
01:02:28it's over.
01:02:29It's over.
01:02:30I mean, let her
01:02:31chase whatever fantasy
01:02:32she thinks Preston
01:02:33Eastwood could offer.
01:02:34Oh, you haven't heard?
01:02:45She dumped him.
01:02:47It was all over
01:02:47People magazine.
01:02:48She ended it
01:02:49when his star faded.
01:02:52Oh my gosh,
01:02:53it was.
01:02:53Daniel!
01:03:03Stop!
01:03:11Sabrina, what are you
01:03:12doing here?
01:03:12I'm here to help you.
01:03:15Sabrina,
01:03:16we are making a scene.
01:03:18Let's go home.
01:03:19Sabrina?
01:03:19How could you?
01:03:20What?
01:03:20I just came to ask
01:03:22Daniel if he'd let you
01:03:23audition,
01:03:24but he said no.
01:03:25I begged and pleaded.
01:03:26Stop lying.
01:03:28I saw you bribe the waiter
01:03:30to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:32And I'll bet you
01:03:33called the paparazzi, too,
01:03:34to catch him
01:03:35drugged out of his mind
01:03:36and ruin him.
01:03:37Oh my gosh,
01:03:39you're disgusting.
01:03:40I'm a manager,
01:03:41Daniel.
01:03:42Not anymore.
01:03:43Why did you become
01:03:44such a conniving,
01:03:46scheming snake?
01:03:48I don't even know
01:03:49who you are anymore.
01:03:51I'm your mother.
01:03:53I only want
01:03:55what's best for you.
01:03:56What's best for me?
01:04:00You've been controlling
01:04:01my life ever since
01:04:02you knew you could
01:04:02profit from it.
01:04:04that all ends today.
01:04:09You're fired.
01:04:11You're fired.
01:04:13No.
01:04:16No.
01:04:21No.
01:04:22You can't do this to me.
01:04:24Please.
01:04:25Please, sweetie.
01:04:26I have dedicated
01:04:26my life to you.
01:04:27You dedicated your life
01:04:29to money
01:04:29and to fame.
01:04:31I was just
01:04:33who you used
01:04:34to get to it.
01:04:35You think you can
01:04:36survive on sheer talent?
01:04:38There's a thousand
01:04:39girls more talented
01:04:40than you waiting
01:04:40for their shot.
01:04:42I made you.
01:04:43You'd be nothing
01:04:44without me.
01:04:47I think she'll do
01:04:49just fine.
01:04:55We're done here, mom.
01:04:58If you want any chance
01:04:59to be in Jackson's life
01:05:01or in mine,
01:05:03you'll leave now.
01:05:05Without another word.
01:05:17I have something to say.
01:05:21I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:24I'm sorry I took you
01:05:25for granted
01:05:25all of those years.
01:05:27I'm sorry I let my mom
01:05:29manipulate and use you.
01:05:32I'm sorry I brought
01:05:33Preston into our home
01:05:35and poisoned our son
01:05:37towards you.
01:05:41Apologize to your father.
01:05:43Do I have to?
01:05:45Who raised you?
01:05:48Cared for you?
01:05:50Packed your lunches
01:05:51when I was on set?
01:05:53Laid with you
01:05:54when you had nightmares
01:05:55and coddled you
01:05:56when you were sick?
01:05:58He did.
01:05:58He loved you.
01:06:00But you treated him
01:06:01like he was nothing.
01:06:02I was wrong.
01:06:04Jackson,
01:06:05he gave us
01:06:06ten years of his life
01:06:07and we abused it.
01:06:09And now there is
01:06:10nothing we can do
01:06:12to take that back.
01:06:14I'm sorry, dad.
01:06:18It's going to be okay, son.
01:06:20I love you.
01:06:21Okay.
01:06:23Come on, Jackson.
01:06:24Let's go.
01:06:24I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:32I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:33For everything.
01:06:37I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:46You're thinking of going back to them.
01:06:48I just didn't know
01:06:52it would be this hard.
01:06:53They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:56They tore you to pieces
01:06:58and then just expected you
01:07:00to come running back.
01:07:03People can change.
01:07:06But that doesn't change the past.
01:07:08And the Oscar goes to
01:07:13Daniel Johnson
01:07:14for his original screenplay,
01:07:16Loving Her.
01:07:19Daniel!
01:07:20Daniel!
01:07:21Daniel!
01:07:21I'm here, Daniel.
01:07:23Daniel, is it true
01:07:24that the script
01:07:24that won you Oscars
01:07:25for both writing
01:07:26and directing
01:07:26sat on a shelf
01:07:27for ten years?
01:07:28Yes.
01:07:29I'll admit
01:07:30I got a little sidelined,
01:07:31but I think
01:07:33I found my way back.
01:07:34But, okay,
01:07:36I'll tell you this.
01:07:38I don't think
01:07:39you can truly
01:07:40love someone else
01:07:41until
01:07:42you love yourself.
01:07:48Way to go, John!

01:08:09for considering me
01:08:09for this part.
