00:07:20our future's ahead of us
00:07:23if only she didn't fall for hollywood's golden
00:07:28asshole
00:07:29so
00:07:37You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:02There's nothing left.
00:08:07Sabrina, don't!
00:08:18Stay back.
00:08:20I mean it.
00:08:22Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:26Just...
00:08:29Just give me your hand.
00:08:32No!
00:08:43Daniel!
00:08:45I got you.
00:08:47No!
00:08:48Don't let me go!
00:08:50I won't ever let you go.
00:08:53I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:08:59Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:01I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:03I see all of you.
00:09:05And you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:10Good to see ya!
00:09:16Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:09:18Oh, too long.
00:09:19Look at you!
00:09:20Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:23Oh my God, of course, babe.
00:09:24Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:26Are you kidding?
00:09:27Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:31Oh, there he is!
00:09:33The assistant!
00:09:34I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:38God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:42Stop!
00:09:43I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:50Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:53Daniel!
00:09:54Oh.
00:09:55Don't embarrass me.
00:09:56No, it's fine.
00:09:57Whoa, you?
00:09:58Played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:01He's not just tough, he's Bret Steele tough!
00:10:04You think, you know?
00:10:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:07He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:12What do you say, huh?
00:10:14Yeah.
00:10:15Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:18It's fine.
00:10:20It's fine.
00:10:21Just relax, okay?
00:10:23Be nice.
00:10:27Some people never change.
00:10:34But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:10:40Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:42But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:10:45Oh, careful.
00:10:46You all right?
00:10:47I'm still starving.
00:10:48Make me some food.
00:10:49Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:10:51Stew?
00:10:52Ew.
00:10:53What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:10:54I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:10:58If the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:00I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:01Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:02Oh, babe.
00:11:03For real?
00:11:04Yeah.
00:11:05My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:06Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:07I'm rich.
00:11:08Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:09I mean, that's just something that I'm trying to be grateful for.
00:11:10I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:12I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:17Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:20What?
00:11:21For real?
00:11:22Yeah.
00:11:23My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:25Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:26I'm rich.
00:11:28Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:33I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:38See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:39You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:41You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:11:43They were so dull.
00:11:44Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:11:47Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:11:52So how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:11:55My turn.
00:11:56My treat.
00:11:57Here we go.
00:11:58What?
00:11:59Yeah.
00:12:00Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:01I don't mind.
00:12:02All of you insist.
00:12:03I mean, I'm already dressed, so.
00:12:05Okay.
00:12:06Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress code, so.
00:12:13Anyways.
00:12:14Come on, Ben.
00:12:15Let's go.
00:12:16That's great.
00:12:17Gotcha.
00:12:18There we go.
00:12:19Oh.
00:12:20There's Paps.
00:12:22You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:24Last time.
00:12:25I promise.
00:12:26You're right.
00:12:27It is the last time.
00:12:28Hey, guys.
00:12:29Hi.
00:12:30Jackson.
00:12:31Jackson.
00:12:32Jackson.
00:12:33Jackson.
00:12:34Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:12:37Contract's fine.
00:12:38It's over.
00:12:39Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:40I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:41After 10 years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:12:45I'm wrong.
00:12:46No one is running back.
00:12:47I'm okay.
00:12:48I'm home.
00:12:49What?
00:12:50I'm going to get a day to my art like you.
00:12:51What?
00:12:52I'm getting ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:53The contract is fine.
00:12:54The contract is fine.
00:12:55It's over.
00:12:56Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:57I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:58After 10 years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:03Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:22She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:26Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:28I could scream.
00:13:29I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:30Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:13:35Oh, gee, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:13:38A scene that I wrote, uncredited of course.
00:13:41Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:43Wait, are you two dating?
00:13:45Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:13:49All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:13:56Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:13:59You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:01Do you bring it?
00:14:02It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:04You get it, right?
00:14:14So, you two are a thing?
00:14:16Well, I...
00:14:17It's okay, babe.
00:14:17We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:19This is so going viral.
00:14:30I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:32It looks like more than dating.
00:14:34Or, is this your son?
00:14:35I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:14:38Don't be silly.
00:14:39You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:14:42That's what all the boys at school say.
00:14:43He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:14:47But Preston is awesome.
00:14:50He's an action spy.
00:14:51I wish he was my dad.
00:14:53My own son doesn't respect me.
00:14:57But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with a call girl.
00:15:03It's okay, buddy.
00:15:04Every spining's a partner in crime.
00:15:05If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:09That is if Mom's cool with it.
00:15:11Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:13Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:15Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:19Come on.
00:15:20Let's give him a show.
00:15:35Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:15:41I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:15:44Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:15:50Daniel!
00:15:52You know, it's probably for the best.
00:15:54And the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:15:58Daniel, he's here?
00:16:00Did he see us?
00:16:01Is he looking over here?
00:16:02Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:16:03I was just doing that for publicity.
00:16:04I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:06Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:08Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:12Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:16:14Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:16Jackson, enough.
00:16:18What do I do?
00:16:20Well, that's it then.
00:16:22Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:24I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:27I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:16:30You're really good at that.
00:16:32Oh, I have a parting gift.
00:16:34For you, a one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:16:42I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:16:47I will come after you with everything I got.
00:16:50Daniel loves me.
00:16:51He has to understand.
00:16:52This is Hollywood.
00:16:53It's just part of the job.
00:16:56Daniel, I can explain.
00:16:58Daniel, what is this?
00:17:06I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:08All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:11Are you going somewhere?
00:17:14Honey!
00:17:15Oh, what a coincidence!
00:17:16We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:20Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:21A vacation?
00:17:22Finally.
00:17:23You're paying attention.
00:17:25Yeah.
00:17:26I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:28Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:17:30What are we supposed to do without you?
00:17:32Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:17:33That's not what I meant.
00:17:34Whoa.
00:17:35Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:17:38That's fine.
00:17:39Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:17:42Just like any good husband would.
00:17:43Oh, I see.
00:17:45Is it me?
00:17:46Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:17:48I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:17:50I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:17:52You know what?
00:17:53Maybe I should go.
00:17:54I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:17:56No, please stay.
00:17:57I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:01No, you know what?
00:18:02I'll go.
00:18:03And clearly she wants you.
00:18:05I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:18:06Daniel, wait.
00:18:09I won't ever let you go.
00:18:10He won't leave.
00:18:12He promised.
00:18:13It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:15We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:18I'm going to go back.
00:18:22Daniel!
00:18:26Please.
00:18:27Better than yours.
00:18:29Yeah.
00:18:31Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:18:32Oh!
00:18:34Oh, good.
00:18:35You're up.
00:18:36Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:18:42It's fun.
00:18:44Why don't look at me like that?
00:18:45I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:18:48Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:18:52How lucky for him.
00:18:54He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:18:56Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:01Listen, man.
00:19:02I...
00:19:02I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:06You can trust me.
00:19:09Ah, Preston, I think you're a good one.
00:19:11You need to lay down.
00:19:13All right.
00:19:14Oh, I hate...
00:19:15Daniel, seriously.
00:19:17Listen, man.
00:19:18I...
00:19:18When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:24I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:19:28Just ignore him.
00:19:29He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:19:30No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:19:34Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:19:36Jealous?
00:19:38My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:19:41Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:19:42You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:19:52That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:19:58Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:04My God.
00:20:05God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:07Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:14No, it's not like that.
00:20:16I...
00:20:16What?
00:20:19You know what?
00:20:20Fine.
00:20:23You two look great together.
00:20:24Daniel, I...
00:20:29I...
00:20:37And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:20:44Um...
00:20:45I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:20:53Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:20:57I was never the homemaker.
00:21:02Please, Daniel.
00:21:04Daniel.
00:21:07I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:22If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:21:26I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:21:28Look at her now.
00:21:42Playing house for another man.
00:21:44If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:21:48There he is.
00:22:06God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:09Man.
00:22:10No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:13Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:14I got some.
00:22:18Yeah.
00:22:19What do you need?
00:22:20Oh, oh.
00:22:21Yeah, there you go.
00:22:22I'd offer you some of this shit, but...
00:22:24I doubt you'd like it.
00:22:25Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:22:27Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:22:33Hey, uh...
00:22:34You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:22:38No.
00:22:38A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:22:42Why would I be threatened by that?
00:22:47It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:00What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:02Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:03I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:07And it's unfair!
00:23:07That's a shame, huh?
00:23:09You know what?
00:23:10Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:11Here we go.
00:23:13Ooh.
00:23:14No, it's...
00:23:15not to play with that.
00:23:18You never let me do anything!
00:23:21Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:23:24You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:23:26It's not about the money.
00:23:27It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:23:30Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:23:32bad examples.
00:23:34Yeah?
00:23:35What's that supposed to mean?
00:23:36You're so annoying!
00:23:40Don't...
00:23:40push.
00:23:45I said don't push.
00:23:47Go get a book or something.
00:23:48Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:23:50He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-servant like you.
00:23:53God, what the hell?
00:23:54You just shot me.
00:23:55Call it a lesson.
00:23:59I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:00He's not your kid.
00:24:02I wish I was.
00:24:04I hope Mom buries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:06I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:24:09Ouch.
00:24:10I mean, you just heard your son.
00:24:12So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:24:14Um, maybe it will be.
00:24:16But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:24:19You?
00:24:21Man of the house?
00:24:22Please.
00:24:22You're a pussy in an apron.
00:24:24I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:24:28And you're a washed-up pack.
00:24:29Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:24:31How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:24:34I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:24:36I'm a fucking star!
00:24:37A star?
00:24:38A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:24:42Jackson, come on.
00:24:43I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:24:45No, I'm not going.
00:24:47Preston's way cooler than you.
00:24:49Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:24:54You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:25:17What was that?
00:25:21God!
00:25:24Daniel!
00:25:26What is happening?
00:25:27It was Dad, Mom.
00:25:29Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:25:31What?
00:25:32That would be pretty good, babe.
00:25:34What the hell, Daniel?
00:25:35I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:25:37I came in looking for a fight.
00:25:38What?
00:25:39I didn't?
00:25:40Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:25:41You're acting like a jealous child.
00:25:43I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:25:46He threw a fish tank at me.
00:25:47It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:25:49Grow up!
00:25:50Remember where in the public eye?
00:25:51What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:25:54What?
00:25:54Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:25:58Maybe I should go while I'm sorry.
00:26:00No!
00:26:01Oh, my God.
00:26:03He's lying.
00:26:05You're a monster!
00:26:07And in front of your son?
00:26:08You have to be kidding.
00:26:10We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:12Yeah.
00:26:12We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:26:15Come on.
00:26:16Clean this up!
00:26:19Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:26:24She's mine now, loser.
00:26:26You did lose a lot of blood, so we're gonna have to keep you here overnight.
00:26:56To pump you with liquid.
00:26:57To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:27:01Trouble with the missus?
00:27:04Uh, yeah.
00:27:06Pretty obvious.
00:27:07Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:11I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:27:16With Preston Eastwood.
00:27:18True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:27:21I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.
00:27:24You said, um, a couple?
00:27:27I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official!
00:27:32She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:27:36She was so sweet.
00:27:42Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:27:45No, it's...
00:27:46It's an old wound.
00:27:48I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:27:53Daniel!
00:27:54Sweet and caring.
00:27:57So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:00He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:28:02and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:04Fuck it.
00:28:12I'm gonna get my shit in, y'all.
00:28:15Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:28:17You once liked my short film.
00:28:19I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:28:20It needs the right producer.
00:28:31I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:28:35Where have you been?
00:28:37I kept calling.
00:28:38I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:28:41Huh?
00:28:45What?
00:28:46I've been busy.
00:28:47Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:28:49Uh, seriously?
00:28:51Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:28:53I told you, he's just a friend.
00:28:57Yeah.
00:28:58That's what you want to call it?
00:29:00I...
00:29:01I just...
00:29:03I'm sorry, I...
00:29:05Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:29:12It is what it is.
00:29:14But, I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:29:17You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:29:22And I think you should go for it.
00:29:24I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:29:27But, I just...
00:29:29I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:29:34Seriously.
00:29:35I...
00:29:35I care about you.
00:29:41I'm not bad.
00:29:43I've known you for 14 years.
00:29:45I know when you're angry.
00:29:46Really?
00:29:47I didn't think you paid attention.
00:29:49I pay attention?
00:29:51Since when do I not pay attention?
00:29:54She signed the papers without reading them.
00:29:56That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:29:59A headline.
00:30:00A performance.
00:30:03Sabrina.
00:30:07Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:08You know what?
00:30:09I hate fighting.
00:30:10So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:30:13I was thinking.
00:30:15We could revisit your script.
00:30:17I gave that to you three years ago.
00:30:22You telling me you finally read it?
00:30:25Well, yeah.
00:30:26The first ten pages.
00:30:27But, they're good.
00:30:29The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:30:32I mean, we have to do this.
00:30:33Me and you.
00:30:35The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:30:38I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:30:43A long time ago.
00:30:44Well, how about you make us some lattes and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves
00:30:50into the script.
00:30:51Just like we used to in film school.
00:30:54There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:30:57I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:00Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:02Bye.
00:31:14I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it
00:31:23was awful.
00:31:25Well, if I had a lot of experience making it for you, I'll be sure to tell him how you
00:31:28like it.
00:31:29That's not what I meant.
00:31:31I like it when you make it.
00:31:35I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:31:39I knew it.
00:31:40You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:31:43I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:31:47God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:31:52Married people are fucking boring.
00:31:55It's good to know where you stand.
00:31:57No, Daniel.
00:31:58No, that's not what I meant.
00:32:06Look what you made me do.
00:32:07Just leave it.
00:32:11I just thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:32:15And what?
00:32:16It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:32:18I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:32:20And look what I get for it.
00:32:22You know what?
00:32:23Forget it.
00:32:24I have a premiere.
00:32:25Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:32:27Okay.
00:32:37What?
00:32:42Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:32:45Yeah.
00:32:45Ex-mother-in-law.
00:32:46Not quite.
00:32:47That was the divorce contract.
00:32:49But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:32:53This is showbiz, baby.
00:32:55Remember that.
00:32:55I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:33:07I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:33:13Oh, please.
00:33:14She's always been so secretive.
00:33:16I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:33:20Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:33:22I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:33:26Oh, well, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:33:31Come here.
00:33:32Oh.
00:33:35Jackson!
00:33:37We were just talking about your mom.
00:33:39Do you know where she is?
00:33:40Or who she's with?
00:33:42She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:33:44He's been staying with us.
00:33:45Oh.
00:33:46Really?
00:33:48Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:33:51Oh, I hope so.
00:33:52I really hope so.
00:33:53He's way cooler than my old, boring, real dad.
00:33:57Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:00Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:34:09What are you doing here?
00:34:10You never come to these things.
00:34:13Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:34:16Get lost.
00:34:17You embarrass us.
00:34:18Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:34:20I'm your father.
00:34:21I wish you never were my dad.
00:34:23Is there a problem?
00:34:32Oh, my God.
00:34:33That's Preston Eastwood.
00:34:35How could Sabrina choose this flap over Preston?
00:34:38If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:34:41I wish Preston was my dad.
00:34:42You're a pathetic loser.
00:34:44Zip it, Jackson.
00:34:45You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:34:51I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:34:52That's not what I see.
00:34:54You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:01That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:35:06It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:35:08And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:35:12This was all a stunt, wasn't it?
00:35:15You were revolting.
00:35:17No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:35:19Hey.
00:35:21Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:35:23Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:35:26Yeah.
00:35:27Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:35:29Oh, yeah?
00:35:30What lesson is that, Preston?
00:35:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:35:36Hmm.
00:35:40Oh!
00:35:57What the hell?
00:35:59What happened?
00:36:01Oh, my God!
00:36:02Daniel!
00:36:03What the hell happened?
00:36:05Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:07Are you okay?
00:36:08Look at her go.
00:36:10Hollywood's finest.
00:36:12Always performing when there's an audience.
00:36:14It's Daniel.
00:36:15He's a monster.
00:36:17He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:36:20Mommy!
00:36:21Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:36:23No.
00:36:24No, that's not true.
00:36:25If Preston weren't here,
00:36:27Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:36:30Can you imagine the allegations?
00:36:34Daniel.
00:36:36Is that true?
00:36:39Sabrina.
00:36:41Oh!
00:36:43Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:36:45I think one of them's broken.
00:36:47Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:36:53But Daniel.
00:36:57Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:00Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:37:14I have to help Preston.
00:37:17Come on, Jackson.
00:37:38Daniel!
00:37:39I got you.
00:37:41Don't let me go!
00:37:42She's made her choice.
00:37:45There's no going back.
00:37:46We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to
00:37:49after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:37:58Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:38:03Now we can make a clean break.
00:38:05I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:38:07There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:38:12Get out of Hollywood.
00:38:14In fact, get out of the country.
00:38:17If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:38:21I will make your life a living hell.
00:38:23Don't worry about it.
00:38:38Just drive.
00:38:39I used to ache for her approval.
00:38:55Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:38:59Seriously?
00:39:01Just lay down.
00:39:02I know.
00:39:03Why is it down?
00:39:04I'm going to go call the doctor.
00:39:06Okay?
00:39:09What are you doing?
00:39:10I thought you were hurt.
00:39:11I think I'll pull through.
00:39:19So what are you doing?
00:39:21I've always wanted to.
00:39:23Come on.
00:39:24I know you want this.
00:39:25I see the way you look at me.
00:39:27Now that Daniel's gone.
00:39:29We have the house to ourself.
00:39:30I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:39:33What am I doing?
00:39:44Daniel is still injured.
00:39:46He should be home.
00:39:50Sabrina?
00:39:51Listen, get off.
00:40:04What?
00:40:05Babe, we can finally come over.
00:40:06I said get off.
00:40:08What?
00:40:09I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:40:10No, forget about him.
00:40:12Look, I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:40:17I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:40:21I mean, come on.
00:40:22Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:40:25Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:40:27What?
00:40:28Look.
00:40:29He's already moved on.
00:40:32No.
00:40:33No.
00:40:34What have I done?
00:40:36Where is he?
00:40:37What about me?
00:40:39You had a chance ten years ago.
00:40:41I need to go take care of my husband.
00:40:50Hello?
00:40:51Excuse me.
00:40:53Excuse me.
00:40:54Hi.
00:40:54Have you seen my husband?
00:40:57Please.
00:40:57He was the one bleeding out.
00:40:59I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:41:03He didn't come back in, though.
00:41:07No.
00:41:09Daniel, where are you?
00:41:10I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:41:14Please try again later.
00:41:17What have I done?
00:41:28Come on, Daniel.
00:41:30Answer me.
00:41:31He's not gone.
00:41:38I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:41:48He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:41:53No.
00:41:56It's not possible.
00:41:58He will be back.
00:42:00Boy, it's all assets.
00:42:15Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:42:17The waves all spousal support.
00:42:20No.
00:42:21No, he can't leave me.
00:42:23He can't do this to me.
00:42:24I won't sign off on it.
00:42:35No.
00:42:37All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:42:40No.
00:42:41No.
00:42:41No.
00:42:41No.
00:42:42No.

00:42:59Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:43:00My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:02He loves me.
00:43:05He loves Jackson.
00:43:07He wouldn't just leave us.
00:43:09We're his family.
00:43:10After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:43:14I got you.
00:43:27Don't let me go.
00:43:28Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:32Daniel?
00:43:33No.
00:43:34No.
00:43:35It's mom.
00:43:36Is everything okay?
00:43:37You sound panicked.
00:43:38Mom.
00:43:39Mom.
00:43:40Daniel.
00:43:41He just left us.

00:44:16Not sure!
00:44:17What?
00:44:18It's over.
00:44:19You know where he is?
00:44:20We have to find him.
00:44:20We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:21Oh, honey.
00:44:22It's over.
00:44:23Daniel's not coming back.

00:44:42he's not coming back, yay, he's gone, he's gone, why would you say that, he was so embarrassing,
00:44:49even Mr. Eastwood, Mr. Eastwood, what did Preston say, he said a pathetic pussy like
00:44:56that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man, he was so lame and boring,
00:45:03now he's gone, Mr. Eastwood is way cooler, he can be my new dad, Jackson, you have a dad,
00:45:11and he's cared for you for seven years, yeah, but I hate him, hello, do you have any news
00:45:24about Daniel, Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant, I noticed a few unusual transfers, I'm sorry,
00:45:30I don't have the time, large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood, was
00:45:35that done with your approval, no, but I'm not surprised, flag his name, I want him frozen
00:45:41and cut off, Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again, okay, he's
00:45:49not the man you think he is, your father, the one who raised you and cared about you,
00:45:54is out there, and we need to find him at all costs, what kind of coward abandons his family,
00:46:00huh, it's despicable, I can't do this anymore, I cancel everything, the interviews, the red
00:46:09carpets, I don't want to be seen, I can't pretend, I just want him back, oh honey, it's time to let
00:46:19him go, you don't love him anyway, and think about what Preston would do for your career,
00:46:26what, how could you say something like that, of course I love Daniel, he cares for me, he sees
00:46:36me, he was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing, but Daniel is a pathetic
00:46:43nobody, Daniel's my husband, and the father of my son, yeah, some husband, abandoning you
00:46:50without a moment's notice, wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract
00:46:53ended, contract, what contract, what are you talking about, forget it, forget it,
00:47:06just pretend I didn't say anything, when I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant
00:47:10the other day, you said that he was going on a trip, is there something you're not telling
00:47:15me, please, I just want the truth, mom, fine, I will tell you the truth, but promise me
00:47:25you won't get mad, I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina, but no, it was all for your own good,
00:47:34when Preston left you, you were distraught, I had to save you, she's lost without you, Daniel,
00:47:45you've always been there for her, from film school to now, I've seen it, she needs you,
00:47:53stay, marry her, love her, so that she's never alone again,
00:47:59it was all just some sort of obligation, how could you do this to me, I wanted to protect
00:48:12you, you wanted to control me, all because you needed me for my career, my money, well,
00:48:18it worked, didn't it, you were about to throw yourself off a rooftop, Daniel did what he
00:48:28was meant to do, he kept you together, where, where did he go, I know he told you where
00:48:35he went, where is he, you can do better than him, you are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet,
00:48:42believe me, it's for the best, no, he can't be gone, he can't, yes, he is gone and he is gone
00:48:50forever, he can't be, he can't be gone, he can't,
00:48:55I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of how Detainment Silver Fox that's already generated
00:49:19a considerable buzz for its new writer, director, speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel
00:49:27Johnson, Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, what's going
00:49:35through your head tonight? Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed, nobody
00:49:41told me how, oh man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be. I've heard this talk
00:49:46in a sequel. Uh, yeah, um, god, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been
00:49:53very honest about it actually, I almost, I almost gave up the dream, but London, London
00:49:58lit the fire under me and I feel like I found my voice and it really is full steam ahead.
00:50:04Speaking of London, since you're an American writer's director, will you be making your way
00:50:08way back to Hollywood? Hollywood. Get out of the country. If I so much as see your name
00:50:17next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell. Daniel?
00:50:25He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him. Daniel is a true auteur and
00:50:46a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:50:49That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe award-winning
00:50:54actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Well, I've heard that, uh, your relationship
00:51:00wasn't just professional. We'll never tell.
00:51:06Oh my god, thanks for saving me, Emily. She was practically eye-fucking you. I know, jeez.
00:51:12This is so surreal, I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me. I can? The moment I read
00:51:18your script, I knew you were special. Daniel, enjoy this. And get used to compliments. There's
00:51:27already Oscar buzz. Fuck. Finish me, I know. I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:51:35You okay? You always do that when you're nervous.
00:51:37Yes, I know. It's, um, a whole habit.
00:51:41Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker. Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:48It's beautiful, so...
00:51:49you know? Fuck the ring.
00:51:50Come on, let's go, okay.
00:51:51Let's do it.
00:51:51Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:51:52Go, let's go, let's go, let's go!
00:51:54Go, let's go.
00:51:55Go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go.
00:51:55Good.
00:51:56Okay.
00:51:57Go, let's go.
00:51:57Final title.
00:51:58Alright.
00:51:59Jesus, the manager, good press.
00:52:04Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:52:09And he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:52:12He can't do this to me!
00:52:15Sabrina.
00:52:16You don't need him.
00:52:18Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:52:19How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:22Move on?
00:52:24Please, honey.
00:52:25He is using her.
00:52:27Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hm?
00:52:30He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:52:33How could you say that?
00:52:34I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:52:38He's proving that to the whole world.
00:52:40Don't you see it?
00:52:42Sabrina.
00:52:43Look at what you've got.
00:52:45A celebrated career.
00:52:46A mansion in the hills.
00:52:48An adorable kid.
00:52:50Well, and he's not whining.
00:52:52And don't forget about Preston.
00:52:54Your dream man.
00:52:56You have everything.
00:52:57I don't have him.
00:53:00Mom, I'm hungry.
00:53:01Go have the chef make something.
00:53:03No, I hate what she cooks.
00:53:05And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:06Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:08Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:10He's your dad.
00:53:11No.
00:53:12Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:14Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:17It was fun telling him what to do.
00:53:19When did he get so cruel?
00:53:21You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:53:25A doormat.
00:53:26Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:28Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:29Enough!
00:53:30You little shit!
00:53:32Enough!
00:53:33Just enough!
00:53:34Sabrina?
00:53:35What's gotten into you?
00:53:36Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:38Whoa.
00:53:39What's going on here?
00:53:40This room feels really tense.
00:53:41Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:42I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:43No.
00:53:44I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:45And if you keep talking like that, I'm gonna put you in a timeout.
00:53:46It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:54:00Hey, babe.
00:54:01Are you really gonna get mad at Jackson for what?
00:54:02Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:03Really?
00:54:04Loser?
00:54:05Yeah.
00:54:06You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:07And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:54:20That's really, really low.
00:54:25Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing
00:54:30in the last year.
00:54:31Come on.
00:54:32We're America's power couple.
00:54:33To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:54:37Face it, Preston.
00:54:38You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:54:41And you're a fucking thief.
00:54:44Yeah.
00:54:45I know you're bankrupt.
00:54:46You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:54:48I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:54:51Because you know what?
00:54:52Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:54It's not like that.
00:54:55Okay?
00:54:56Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:54:58I want to marry you.
00:55:00We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:55:02What's my birthday?
00:55:04Huh?
00:55:05What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:07What's my favorite color?
00:55:08My favorite song?
00:55:09Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:12Oh, oh wait.
00:55:13What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:15You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:18You don't love me.
00:55:19You don't even know me.
00:55:21This isn't a relationship.
00:55:23This is a publicity stunt.
00:55:25And you know what?
00:55:26I'm done.
00:55:27Get out.
00:55:28I don't want to ever see you again.
00:55:31We're over.
00:55:33We're over.
00:55:34What?
00:55:35Hey, babe, come on.
00:55:36Please.
00:55:37Please, I love you.
00:55:38Just think about it.
00:55:39Look at the press.
00:55:40What this will look like.
00:55:41If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:45Get out.
00:55:46Now.
00:55:47Give me your hand.
00:55:48Come on.
00:55:49No.
00:55:50I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:53Nobody sees around me.
00:55:55I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:57I see all of you.
00:55:59And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:56:02He truly knew me.
00:56:05He loved me.
00:56:07Every flaw.
00:56:09Every fear.
00:56:10Contract or not.
00:56:12He truly loved me.
00:56:14I saved you from social suicide.
00:56:16Saved me?
00:56:17I mean, you don't even know how ironic that is.
00:56:21Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:56:23And he saved me from you.
00:56:26Security!
00:56:29Security!
00:56:30Come on.
00:56:31Just let's talk about this.
00:56:32No.

00:56:36Sabrina.

00:56:46Is that all you care about?
00:56:47The fame?
00:56:48The headlines?
00:56:49The brand deals?
00:56:50God!
