00:00:00This is so going viral. I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:00:04It looks like more than dating. Is this your son?
00:00:07I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:00:10Don't be silly. You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:00:14That's what all the boys at school say.
00:00:16He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:00:19But Preston is awesome. He's an action spy.
00:00:23I wish he was my dad.
00:00:25My own son doesn't respect me.
00:00:29But 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.
00:00:36It's okay, buddy. Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:00:38If you want me around, I'm in.
00:00:42That is if mom's cool with it.
00:00:44Oh, Preston, I don't know. Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:00:48Preston, what are you doing?
00:00:52Come on. Let's give him a show.
00:00:55Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:01:14I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:01:17Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:01:21Daniel!
00:01:25You know, it's probably for the best.
00:01:27From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:01:32Daniel, he's here? He...
00:01:33Did he see us? Is he looking over here?
00:01:36Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:01:37I was just doing that for publicity.
00:01:38I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:01:40Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:01:42Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:01:46Who cares about him, mommy?
00:01:47Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:01:49Jackson, enough.
00:01:52What do I do?
00:01:54Well, that's it then.
00:01:56Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:01:58I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:02:01I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:02:04You're really good at that.
00:02:05Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:02:10A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:02:16I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:02:21I will come after you with everything I got.
00:02:24Daniel loves me.
00:02:25He has to understand.
00:02:27This is Hollywood.
00:02:27It's just part of the job.
00:02:30Daniel, I can explain.
00:02:38Daniel, what is this?
00:02:39Look what you made me do.
00:02:48Just leave it.
00:02:52I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:02:56And what?
00:02:57It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:02:59I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:03:01And look what I get for it.
00:03:03You know what?
00:03:04Forget it.
00:03:05I have a premiere.
00:03:06Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:03:08What?
00:03:24Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:03:26Yeah.
00:03:27Ex-mother-in-law.
00:03:27Not quite.
00:03:28That was the divorce contract.
00:03:30But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our
00:03:34family's NDA.
00:03:35This is showbiz, baby.
00:03:36Remember that.
00:03:37I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:03:40I want a divorce.
00:03:46Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:03:49Huh?
00:03:51I want a di...
00:03:55I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:56Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:58Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:02Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:04:04We'll get you some real food.
00:04:10Seriously?
00:04:11Your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:15I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:17What is this?
00:04:19Another contract?
00:04:20How big is the role?
00:04:21How big is the role?
00:04:23Who's directing?
00:04:24It's not a...
00:04:25Whatever.
00:04:25My mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:28Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:04:30Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:04:34I have that red carpet event coming up.
00:04:36And I really need you to pull your weight.
00:04:39Pull my weight?
00:04:40Yeah, you get it.
00:04:44Love you.
00:04:45I've devoted myself to this family for 10 long years.
00:04:49If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:04:52Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:04:57Call it a lesson.
00:04:58I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:04:59He's not your kid.
00:05:01I wish I was.
00:05:02I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:05:05I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:05:08Ouch.
00:05:09I mean, you just heard your son.
00:05:11So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:05:13Hermit.
00:05:14Maybe it will be.
00:05:15But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:05:18You?
00:05:20Man of the house?
00:05:21Please.
00:05:22You're a pussy in an apron.
00:05:23I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:05:27And you're washed up, Pat.
00:05:29Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:05:31How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:05:33I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:05:35I'm a fucking star.
00:05:37A star?
00:05:38A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:05:41Jackson, come on.
00:05:43I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:05:44No, I'm not going.
00:05:46Preston's way cooler than you.
00:05:48Preston, Preston, Preston.
00:05:51You did lose a lot of blood, so we're gonna have to keep you here overnight to pump you
00:06:18To be honest, I could use a break from home
00:06:22Trouble with the missus?
00:06:26Uh, yeah, it's pretty obvious
00:06:29Most married folks that come in here are miserable
00:06:32I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood
00:06:40True love story, holding hands, wiping tears
00:06:44I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice
00:06:47You said, um, a couple?
00:06:50I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official
00:06:54She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted
00:06:59She was so sweet
00:07:00Need a mess to check on that shoulder for you?
00:07:08No, it's...
00:07:10It's an old wound
00:07:11I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago
00:07:15Daniel!
00:07:18Sweet and caring
00:07:19So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted
00:07:22He only had to break her heart to get it
00:07:25And left me to pick up the pieces
00:07:28I can't let her create a public scene
00:07:39All it takes is one article to get her cancelled
00:07:42Are you going somewhere?
00:07:44Honey!
00:07:46Oh, what a coincidence!
00:07:48We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation
00:07:50Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:07:52A vacation?
00:07:53Finally!
00:07:54You're paying attention
00:07:55Yeah
00:07:56I'm going to leave in a few days
00:07:59Well, thanks for telling your wife
00:08:01What are we supposed to do without you?
00:08:03Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:08:05That's not what I meant
00:08:06Whoa!
00:08:07Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here
00:08:09That's fine
00:08:10Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit
00:08:13Just like any good husband would
00:08:15Oh, I see
00:08:16Is it me?
00:08:18Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:08:20I wouldn't put jealousy past him
00:08:22I always knew you were the self-loving type
00:08:24You know what?
00:08:25Maybe I should go
00:08:26I don't want to get between the two of you
00:08:27No, please stay
00:08:29I want you to live with us forever and ever
00:08:31No, you know what?
00:08:34I'll go
00:08:34And clearly she wants you
00:08:37Willing to dance to his tune
00:08:38Daniel, wait
00:08:39I won't ever let you go
00:08:42He won't leave
00:08:44He promised
00:08:45It doesn't have to be like this
00:08:47We could pull up a chair and we can
00:08:49I'm going to go back
00:08:52Daniel
00:08:55The movie's Greenland
00:09:03And the studio wants you to direct
00:09:05We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow
00:09:06I can't
00:09:07My wife needs me here in LA
00:09:09After all I've sacrificed
00:09:11My scripts
00:09:13My career
00:09:14My future
00:09:15All pushed aside
00:09:17At least there is one good thing to come from this
00:09:21I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life
00:09:25Hey mom, how you doing?
00:09:26Oh good dear
00:09:27I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account
00:09:32Do you need more?
00:09:33No, no, no, no
00:09:34You've already done so much
00:09:36I'm just trying to help
00:09:37I know
00:09:38But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle
00:09:42I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done
00:09:46But it's time you lived your life
00:09:50I am, mom
00:09:51And I promise
00:09:54Very soon
00:09:55Everything's going to change
00:09:59You have a wonderful fear
00:10:01You deserve more than what they put you through
00:10:03Everyone come quick, come quick
00:10:05I gotta go
00:10:07Love you
00:10:07What is it, mom?
00:10:12Someone very special decided to pay us a visit
00:10:14Our favorite leading man
00:10:16Come on
00:10:17Preston Eastwood
00:10:24The man that broke my wife's heart
00:10:27And is stealing it back again
00:10:30You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood
00:10:38What was that?
00:10:46Daniel!
00:10:47What is happening?
00:10:49It was dad, mom
00:10:50Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood
00:10:53What?
00:10:53I'm so scared
00:10:54That'd be pretty good, babe
00:10:55What the hell, Daniel?
00:10:57I just wanted to hang out with Jackson
00:10:59I came in looking for a fight
00:11:00What?
00:11:01I didn't?
00:11:02Dude, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:11:03You're acting like a jealous child
00:11:05I thought you were bigger than this petty shit
00:11:07He threw a fish tank at me
00:11:09It's just a fucking fish tank
00:11:11Grow up
00:11:11Remember where in the public eye?
00:11:14What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:11:16What?
00:11:17Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:11:20Maybe I should go
00:11:21I'm sorry
00:11:22No
00:11:23Oh my god
00:11:24He's lying
00:11:26You're a monster
00:11:29And in front of your son?
00:11:31You have to be kidding
00:11:32We have to get you to the hospital
00:11:34Yeah
00:11:34We'll talk about this when I get home
00:11:38Come on
00:11:39Clean this up
00:11:40Soon you won't be coming home to me ever again
00:11:45Oh
00:11:46She's mine now, loser
00:11:49Hello, 9-1-1
00:11:59What's your emergency?
00:12:00I'm bleeding out
00:12:01I think I hit an artery
00:12:02I need an ambulance
00:12:04Now
00:12:04Now
00:12:05Good to see you
00:12:13Oh my gosh
00:12:14How long has it been?
00:12:15Oh, too long
00:12:16Look at you
00:12:16Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills
00:12:21Yeah, of course, babe
00:12:22Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit
00:12:24Are you kidding?
00:12:24Oh, Daniel
00:12:25Uh, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit
00:12:27But you don't mind, right?
00:12:29Oh, there he is
00:12:30The assistant
00:12:31I'll tell you what
00:12:32There's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy
00:12:35How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:12:40Stop
00:12:41I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home
00:12:47Sabrina
00:12:48I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over
00:12:51Daniel
00:12:51Oh
00:12:52Don't embarrass me
00:12:53No, it's fine
00:12:54Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:12:59He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you think, you know?
00:13:03My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it
00:13:06He doesn't let me do anything
00:13:07Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules
00:13:10What are you saying, huh?
00:13:12Yeah
00:13:13Sabrina
00:13:13I think it's time he leaves
00:13:16That's fine
00:13:18That's fine
00:13:19Just relax, okay?
00:13:22Be nice
00:13:23Some people never change
00:13:32But once our divorce is finalized
00:13:35I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again
00:13:38And the Oscar goes to
00:13:40Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her
00:13:44That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:13:50Who knew the house hubby had it in him?
00:13:52I'm an industry joke now
00:13:53Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:14:00Wow, you did your homework
00:14:01Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back
00:14:06Um, I will tell you this
00:14:07I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself
00:14:12Daniel really did it
00:14:15The one standing by his side isn't me anymore
00:14:18You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:14:22You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel
00:14:24Our contract expired
00:14:26I'm only telling you because you're her manager
00:14:29If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing
00:14:32The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her
00:14:36I'll always love my son
00:14:40But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business
00:14:43His grandmother
00:14:44You used to worship Sabrina
00:14:46What happened?
00:14:48That was a long time ago
00:14:49America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide
00:14:53All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood
00:14:56But her career is hanging by a thread
00:14:58I need to get those paparazzi off her back
00:15:01You've always loved her, Daniel
00:15:04I've seen it
00:15:05She needs that now
00:15:07Stay
00:15:09Marry her
00:15:10Love her
00:15:12So that she doesn't face the world alone
00:15:14I might not have been Sabrina's first love
00:15:17But I would be her last
00:15:18And I'd cherish her like no other man would
00:15:21If Preston Eastwood's really back
00:15:24Then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her
00:15:28This was the last one
00:15:29Mom, Daniel
00:15:33What's going on?
00:15:38Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork
00:15:41I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name
00:15:44After ten years of heartbreak?
00:15:47I don't care if I walk away with nothing
00:15:48Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:16:09She must have known this is where they were going for dinner
00:16:11Sabrina Donovan?
00:16:15I could scream
00:16:16I'm literally obsessed with you
00:16:18Preston Eastwood
00:16:19I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice
00:16:22OMG
00:16:23I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink
00:16:26A scene that I wrote
00:16:27Uncredited of course
00:16:28Even my success is shadowed by her fame
00:16:31Wait
00:16:31Are you two dating?
00:16:33Oh well actually
00:16:34This is totally a date
00:16:35All these years I couldn't even be seeing what they're in public
00:16:40Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:16:47You're not really a part of my brand
00:16:48You're bringing?
00:16:50It's just
00:16:51It's not a good look for me
00:16:52You get it
00:16:53Right
00:16:54So you two are a thing?
00:17:04Well I
00:17:05It's okay babe
00:17:06We don't have to lie to our biggest fans
00:17:08Are you really going to ask your husband
00:17:18If you can sleep with your ex?
00:17:20No it's not like that
00:17:22I...
00:17:23What?
00:17:25You know what?
00:17:26Fine
00:17:26You two look great together
00:17:30Daniel
00:17:31And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work
00:17:47Um
00:17:52I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are
00:17:58Without me you can't even find a kettle or a towel
00:18:02I was never the homemaker
00:18:06Please Daniel
00:18:11I can't think of any time she was there
00:18:25To comfort me
00:18:27If you're sick
00:18:31Can you go in the other room?
00:18:34I have a press junket tomorrow
00:18:35That I seriously can't miss
00:18:36Look at her now
00:18:49Playing house for another man
00:18:51If only she worked this hard at being a wife
00:18:55When it actually mattered
00:18:56Mr. Lee
00:19:04I don't know if you remember me
00:19:05You once liked my short film
00:19:07I have a script I've been sitting on
00:19:08It needs the right producer
00:19:18I know it's a long shot
00:19:20But I'd be honored if you'd read it
00:19:21Where have you been?
00:19:25I kept calling
00:19:26I started to feel like one of my stalkers
00:19:29Huh?
00:19:34What?
00:19:35I've been busy
00:19:35Anyways I thought you were busy entertaining Preston
00:19:37Seriously?
00:19:40Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:19:42I told you
00:19:43He's just a friend
00:19:44Yeah
00:19:46That's what you want to call it?
00:19:50I...
00:19:50I just...
00:19:52I'm sorry
00:19:53I...
00:19:54Bringing Preston into our home
00:19:56Was probably crossing a line
00:19:57It is what it is
00:20:02But I mean
00:20:04You know how the industry works
00:20:07You even just hint at a relationship
00:20:09And it stirs up all this publicity
00:20:11And I think you should go for it
00:20:13I mean you always do what's best for your career
00:20:15But
00:20:17I just
00:20:18I don't want you to be upset with me
00:20:20Seriously
00:20:23I...
00:20:25I care about you
00:20:27I'm no man
00:20:31I've known you for 14 years
00:20:35I know when you're angry
00:20:36Really?
00:20:37I didn't think you paid attention
00:20:38I pay attention?
00:20:41Since when do I not pay attention?
00:20:44She signed the papers without reading them
00:20:46That's all this marriage ever was to her
00:20:48A headlight
00:20:49A performance
00:20:51Sabrina
00:20:53Yeah
00:20:56Yeah
00:20:57It's nice
00:20:58But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the sale
00:21:01I'm still starving
00:21:15Make me some food
00:21:17Jackson
00:21:17There's leftover stew in the fridge
00:21:19Stew?
00:21:20What is this?
00:21:23A soup kitchen?
00:21:24I told you a hundred times
00:21:25I want chicken nuggets
00:21:26If the kid wants nuggets
00:21:29Just give him nuggets
00:21:30I'm trying to teach my son
00:21:31How to be grateful for what he already has
00:21:33Daniel
00:21:34I'm a billionaire
00:21:36Oh babe
00:21:37For real?
00:21:39Yeah
00:21:39My makeup line took me all the way to the top
00:21:43Donovan cosmetics
00:21:45Rich
00:21:46Which means
00:21:48We don't have to be grateful
00:21:50I mean that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing
00:21:55See Daniel that was always your problem
00:21:56You're so caught up on the morals
00:21:58You realize that's why no one bought your scripts
00:22:00They were so dull
00:22:01Please Mr. Eastwood
00:22:02My dad won't let me have anything
00:22:05Lucky for you
00:22:06Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel
00:22:09So how about we go to an exclusive restaurant
00:22:12My treat
00:22:14Here you go
00:22:15What?
00:22:16Oh you don't have to do that
00:22:18I don't mind
00:22:19I'll let you insist
00:22:21I mean I'm already dressed
00:22:22So
00:22:23Okay
00:22:25Oh and I would invite you to Daniel
00:22:28But there's a little bit of a dress cup
00:22:30So
00:22:31Anyways
00:22:31Come on baby let's go
00:22:33Looks great
00:22:35Gotcha
00:22:35There we go
00:22:36Oh
00:22:37There's Paps
00:22:40You don't have to come Daniel
00:22:42Last time
00:22:43I promise
00:22:45You're right
00:22:47It is the last time
00:22:49Hey guys
00:22:51Hi
00:22:53Jackson
00:22:54Jackson
00:22:55Well
00:23:01Did you use your brain
00:23:02Or are you following through
00:23:04On the divorce
00:23:04Contract sign
00:23:06It's over
00:23:08Sabrina I'm good
00:23:10You know what
00:23:11I hate fighting
00:23:13So
00:23:13Let's just forget about this
00:23:15Okay
00:23:15I was thinking
00:23:17We could
00:23:18Revisit your script
00:23:20I gave that to you
00:23:24Three years ago
00:23:24You telling me
00:23:26You finally read it
00:23:27Well yeah
00:23:28The first ten pages
00:23:30But
00:23:30They're good
00:23:31The lead role
00:23:33Is something I can really
00:23:34Sink my teeth into
00:23:35I mean we have to do this
00:23:36Me and you
00:23:37The lead actress
00:23:38And the writer director
00:23:40I gave up on that dream
00:23:43Of us working together
00:23:44A long time ago
00:23:47Well
00:23:48How about you make us
00:23:49Some lattes
00:23:50And for the next hour
00:23:52We can just pour ourselves
00:23:53Into the script
00:23:54Just like we used to
00:23:55In film school
00:23:56There was a time
00:23:58When this would have
00:23:59Worked on me
00:24:00I would have
00:24:01Melted in her hands
00:24:03Now I just want to
00:24:04Pack and
00:24:05Get out of here
00:24:06What?
00:24:17I don't know
00:24:22What you do
00:24:23But
00:24:23I asked the chef
00:24:24To make a latte
00:24:25While you were gone
00:24:26And it was
00:24:27Awful
00:24:28Well if I've had a lot
00:24:30Of experience
00:24:30Making it for you
00:24:31I'll be sure to tell him
00:24:32How you like it
00:24:33That's not what I meant
00:24:34I like it
00:24:36When you make it
00:24:37I'm not gonna always
00:24:40Be here
00:24:40To make it
00:24:41I knew it
00:24:44You are mad
00:24:46That I brought Preston
00:24:47Back here
00:24:47I told you
00:24:48It was just
00:24:49A publicity stunt
00:24:50God
00:24:52It's not like
00:24:52Our marriage
00:24:53Is gonna get me
00:24:54On the cover
00:24:54Of Vanity Fair
00:24:55Married people
00:24:57Are fucking boring
00:24:59It's good to know
00:25:01Where you stand
00:25:01No Daniel
00:25:02No that's not
00:25:04What I meant
00:25:04Please
00:25:07Better than yours
00:25:09Yeah
00:25:10Shh
00:25:12Shh
00:25:12Shh
00:25:12Oh
00:25:13Oh
00:25:14Oh good
00:25:16You're up
00:25:17Um
00:25:18After dinner
00:25:18We went to an A-lister
00:25:20Party in Bel Air
00:25:21It's fun
00:25:23Why don't look at me like that
00:25:26I'm allowed to have
00:25:27A little bit of fun
00:25:28Anyways
00:25:29Preston had a few
00:25:31Too many drinks
00:25:32To be alone
00:25:32How lucky for him
00:25:34He's got his girl
00:25:36To take care of him
00:25:36When he's drunk
00:25:37Oh
00:25:37Oh Daniel
00:25:38Whatever you saw
00:25:40At the restaurant
00:25:40It's not like that
00:25:41Listen man
00:25:43I
00:25:43I've had every opportunity
00:25:45To sleep with her
00:25:46And nothing happened
00:25:48You can trust me
00:25:49Preston
00:25:51I think you're
00:25:52You need to lay down
00:25:54Alright
00:25:55Oh
00:25:56Hey
00:25:57Daniel
00:25:58Seriously
00:25:59Listen man
00:25:59I
00:26:00When you're gone
00:26:01I promise
00:26:02I will take the best care
00:26:04Of your son
00:26:05And your wife
00:26:05I'm gonna be
00:26:06The best man
00:26:08Of the house
00:26:09Just ignore him
00:26:10He doesn't know
00:26:11What he's saying
00:26:12No I actually think
00:26:13He's the only one
00:26:14Speaking exactly
00:26:14What's on his mind
00:26:15Daniel you don't have
00:26:16To be so jealous
00:26:17Jealous?
00:26:20My god
00:26:21You still don't get it
00:26:22Do you?
00:26:23Whatever
00:26:24I'm going to bed
00:26:24You know
00:26:28I don't think
00:26:31I should be alone
00:26:32That's all I need
00:26:36To slip into her bed
00:26:37And drive the final wedge
00:26:38Between her
00:26:39And the house husband
00:26:40Daniel
00:26:41Can Preston sleep
00:26:43In here tonight
00:26:44So I can look after him?
00:26:47My god
00:26:47My god
00:26:48You're unbelievable
00:26:50What's going on?
00:26:55Honey
00:26:56I was just telling Daniel
00:26:59He needs to stop
00:27:00Dressing like a bum
00:27:01If the paparazzi
00:27:02Catch him next to you
00:27:03But I need to go
00:27:05I have an appointment
00:27:06With your stylist
00:27:07Think about it Daniel
00:27:10Once Sabrina signs
00:27:15The divorce petition
00:27:16The 30 day waiting period
00:27:18Starts
00:27:18Then I will be free
00:27:20Sabrina
00:27:21We need to talk
00:27:23Can it wait?
00:27:25I'm seriously so spent
00:27:26I had the photo shoot
00:27:28And fitting
00:27:29And cocktails with girls
00:27:31I saw Preston was there
00:27:33I mean he got us
00:27:35Our first movie deal
00:27:36Right out of college
00:27:37I mean we owe him
00:27:38Yeah
00:27:39And then he cheated on you
00:27:41And I'm the one
00:27:42Who picked up the pieces
00:27:43I'm starving
00:27:44When are we eating?
00:27:46Lunch is on the stove
00:27:47But first
00:27:48Your mother and I
00:27:49Need to talk
00:27:50No
00:27:51I want to eat now
00:27:52You always know the spot
00:28:04He doesn't listen
00:28:06Daniel
00:28:07Please
00:28:07I had a migraine
00:28:09All day
00:28:10From the flashing bulbs
00:28:11At that god awful
00:28:12Vanity Fair shoot
00:28:13I got something
00:28:16I need to tell you
00:28:17I'll make it quick
00:28:18This isn't easy
00:28:19But I'm
00:28:20Ew
00:28:20What is this?
00:28:22It's mom's vegetable
00:28:23And quinoa stew
00:28:24I don't want healthy food
00:28:25I want chicken nuggets
00:28:26Chicken nuggets
00:28:27Chicken nuggets
00:28:28You can't have that every day
00:28:30It's not healthy for you
00:28:32But I want them
00:28:33Jackson
00:28:34Jackson
00:28:34When I say no
00:28:36I mean no
00:28:37You suck
00:28:38I want chicken nuggets
00:28:40Give me chicken nuggets
00:28:42I waited
00:28:50I gave it everything I had
00:28:53But it takes two to make a marriage work
00:28:55And my self-absorbed wife
00:28:57Would rather be with the man
00:28:59That almost ruined her life
00:29:00And me
00:29:01Enough
00:29:02Just enough
00:29:04I want a divorce
00:29:10Mommy please
00:29:22We can't leave him
00:29:23I have to help Preston
00:29:27I have to help Preston
00:29:27Come on Jackson
00:29:42I got you
00:29:51Don't let me go
00:29:53She's made her choice
00:29:55There's no going back
00:29:56We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to
00:29:59After all these years of me slaving for her
00:30:02Preston Eastwood
00:30:04The man that broke my wife's heart
00:30:06All right cut
00:30:14That's a wrap everyone
00:30:15Thank you
00:30:16We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice
00:30:19Sabrina was a rising star
00:30:22I was just the director's assistant
00:30:24Our future's ahead of us
00:30:28If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden castle
00:30:34We'll see you guys
00:30:47You'll see us
00:30:48We'll see your, we'll see you
00:30:51Let's pray
00:30:53No
00:30:53You
00:30:55You
00:30:56You destroyed me, Preston.
00:31:08I'm just a f***ing one.
00:31:22Rhea, don't!
00:31:26Stay back.
00:31:28I mean it.
00:31:30Sabrina, don't do this.
00:31:32Just...
00:31:34Just give me your hand.
00:31:48No!
00:31:50Daniel!
00:31:52I got you.
00:31:54Don't let me go!
00:31:56I won't ever let you go.
00:32:02I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:32:06Nobody sees the real me.
00:32:08I see you, Sabrina.
00:32:10I see all of you.
00:32:12And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:32:16There we go.
00:32:18There he is!
00:32:20God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:32:22No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:32:26Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:32:28I got some.
00:32:30I got some.
00:32:32Yeah.
00:32:34What do you need?
00:32:36Oh, oh.
00:32:38Yeah, there you go.
00:32:40I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:32:52Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:32:54Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:32:56Hey, uh...
00:32:58You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:33:04No?
00:33:06A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:33:08Why would I be threatened by that?
00:33:10It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:33:28What's wrong, Jackson?
00:33:30Mr. Eastwood!
00:33:31I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:33:35And it's unfair!
00:33:36That's a shame.
00:33:37You know what?
00:33:38Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:33:39Here we go.
00:33:41Ooh.
00:33:42No, it's...
00:33:44Not to play with them.
00:33:46You never let me do anything!
00:33:49Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:33:52You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:33:54It's not about the money.
00:33:56It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:33:58Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:34:00bad examples.
00:34:02Yeah?
00:34:03What's that supposed to mean?
00:34:05You're so annoying!
00:34:07Don't push.
00:34:08I said don't push.
00:34:09Go get a book or something.
00:34:10Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:34:11He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-servant like you.
00:34:12God, what the hell's you just saw me?
00:34:13Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:34:14Now we can make a clean break.
00:34:15I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:34:16There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:34:20Get out of Hollywood.
00:34:21In fact, get out of the country.
00:34:22Get out of the country.
00:34:23If I so much as much as I'm...
00:34:25I'm waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:34:30I want to watch this film.
00:34:31You make a book of your friends?
00:34:32You make a money?
00:34:33Freelance, just show me.
00:34:34Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:34:37Now we can make a clean break.
00:34:39I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:34:42There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:34:47Get out of Hollywood.
00:34:49In fact, get out of the country.
00:34:52If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:34:56I will make your life a living hell.
00:35:12Don't worry about it. Just drive.
00:35:27I used to ache for her approval.
00:35:30Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:35:37Boy, it's all assets.
00:35:40Climb zero costume Jackson.
00:35:42The waves are all spousal support.
00:35:45No, no, he can't leave me.
00:35:48He can't do this to me.
00:35:50I won't sign off on him.
00:36:00No.
00:36:02All this time, he's going to leave me?
00:36:06What the hell?
00:36:20What happened?
00:36:22Oh, my God.
00:36:25Daniel.
00:36:26What the hell happened?
00:36:28Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:29Are you okay?
00:36:31Look at her go.
00:36:33Hollywood's finest.
00:36:34Always performing when there's an audience.
00:36:37It's Daniel.
00:36:38It's Daniel.
00:36:38He's a monster.
00:36:40He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:36:43Mommy, Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:36:46No.
00:36:47No, that's not true.
00:36:49If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:36:54Can you imagine the allegations?
00:36:57Daniel.
00:36:59Is that true?
00:37:02Sabrina.
00:37:04Oh!
00:37:05Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:09I think one of them's broken.
00:37:11Sabrina.
00:37:12Honey.
00:37:13We need to help Preston.
00:37:17But Daniel.
00:37:21Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:25Seriously?
00:37:27Stay down.
00:37:28I know.
00:37:29Why is he down?
00:37:31I'm going to go call the doctor.
00:37:32Me?
00:37:35What are you doing?
00:37:36I thought you were hurt.
00:37:38I think I'll pull through.
00:37:46So what are you doing?
00:37:48I don't want to have always wanted to.
00:37:50Come on.
00:37:51I know you want this.
00:37:52I see the way you look at me.
00:37:54And now that Daniel's gone, we have to house to ourself.
00:37:57I could finally have you in this bedroom.
00:38:05What am I doing?
00:38:12Daniel is still injured.
00:38:14He should be home.
00:38:17Sabrina?
00:38:26I'm hungry!
00:38:28Dad!
00:38:30Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:38:33Tax it?
00:38:36I have something to tell you.
00:38:39Your dad.
00:38:42Your dad.
00:38:45He's left us.
00:38:47I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:38:49Yay!
00:38:50He's gone!
00:38:50He's gone!
00:38:51Why would you say that?
00:38:54He was so embarrassing.
00:38:55Even Mr. Eastwood.
00:38:57Mr. Eastwood?
00:38:59What did Preston say?
00:39:00He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man.
00:39:07Oh my God.
00:39:09That's Preston Eastwood.
00:39:10How could Sabrina choose this fly over Preston?
00:39:14If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:39:16I wish Preston was my dad.
00:39:18You're a pathetic loser.
00:39:19Zip it, Jackson.
00:39:21You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:39:26I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:39:28That's not what I see.
00:39:30You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and pit a fight with an A-lister.
00:39:39That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:39:42It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:39:44And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:39:49This was all a stunt, wasn't it?
00:39:51You were revolting.
00:39:53No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:39:55Hey.
00:39:58Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:39:59Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:40:03Yeah.
00:40:04Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:40:05Oh yeah?
00:40:06What lesson's that, Preston?
00:40:08You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:40:12Hmm.
00:40:14What are you talking about?
00:40:38Forget it.
00:40:40Forget it.
00:40:41Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:40:43When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip.
00:40:48Is there something you're not telling me?
00:40:50Please.
00:40:51I just want the truth.
00:40:53Mom.
00:40:55Fine.
00:40:56I will tell you the truth.
00:40:59But promise me you won't get mad.
00:41:03I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:41:07But no, it was all for your own good.
00:41:09He was so lame and boring.
00:41:14Now he's gone.
00:41:16Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:41:18He can be my new dad.
00:41:20Jackson.
00:41:21You have a dad.
00:41:23And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:41:25Yeah, but I hate him!
00:41:33Hello?
00:41:34Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:41:36Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:41:38I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:41:41I'm sorry.
00:41:41I don't have the time.
00:41:42Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:41:46Was that done with your approval?
00:41:47No, but I'm not surprised.
00:41:50Flag his name.
00:41:52I want him frozen and cut off.
00:41:56Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:42:00Okay?
00:42:00He's not the man you think he is.
00:42:03Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:42:06And we need to find him at all costs.
00:42:09Preston, get off.
00:42:20What?
00:42:21Babe, we can finally...
00:42:23I said get off.
00:42:25What?
00:42:25I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:42:27No, forget about him.
00:42:28Look, I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:42:33I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:42:38I mean, come on.
00:42:38Sabrina, your son, your mother, even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:42:44What?
00:42:45Look, he's already moved on.
00:42:49No.
00:42:50No.
00:42:51What have I done?
00:42:53Where is he?
00:42:54What about me?
00:42:56You had your chance ten years ago.
00:42:59I need to go take care of my husband.
00:43:01I need to go take care of my husband.
00:43:08I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:43:21Oh, please.
00:43:21She's always been so secretive.
00:43:24I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:43:27Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:43:30I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:43:33Oh, well.
00:43:36If we do want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:43:39Come here.
00:43:40Oh.
00:43:43Jackson!
00:43:44We were just talking about your mom.
00:43:47Do you know where she is?
00:43:48Or who she's with?
00:43:50She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:43:52He's been staying with us.
00:43:53Oh, really?
00:43:56Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:43:59Oh, I hope so.
00:44:00I really hope so.
00:44:01He's way cooler than my old, boring, real dad.
00:44:05Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:44:08Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:44:18What are you doing here?
00:44:19You never come to these things.
00:44:21Oh, that's got to be the husband.
00:44:23Get lost.
00:44:25You embarrass us.
00:44:27Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:44:29I'm your father.
00:44:30I wish you never were my dad.
00:44:35Is there a problem?
00:44:41What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:44:44Huh?
00:44:44It's despicable.
00:44:45I can't do this anymore.
00:44:48I cancel everything.
00:44:50The interviews, the red carpets.
00:44:53I don't want to be seen.
00:44:55I can't pretend.
00:44:57I just want him back.
00:44:59Oh, honey.
00:45:01It's time to let him go.
00:45:03You don't love him anyway.
00:45:05And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:45:09What?
00:45:09How could you say something like that?
00:45:15Of course I love Daniel.
00:45:18He cares for me.
00:45:19He sees me.
00:45:20He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:45:24But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:45:28Daniel's my husband.
00:45:30And the father of my son.
00:45:32Yeah, some husband.
00:45:33Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:45:35Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended.
00:45:39Contract?
00:45:41What contract?
00:45:42When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:45:47I had to save you.
00:45:49She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:45:53You've always been there for her.
00:45:55From film school to now.
00:45:56I've seen it.
00:45:58She needs you.
00:46:00Stay.
00:46:01Marry her.
00:46:02Love her.
00:46:03So that she's never alone again.
00:46:05It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:46:15How could you do this to me?
00:46:17I wanted to protect you.
00:46:19You wanted to control me.
00:46:21All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:46:25Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:46:30You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:46:33Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:46:36He kept you together.
00:46:38Where?
00:46:39Where did he go?
00:46:41I know he told you where he went.
00:46:43Where is he?
00:46:44You can do better than him.
00:46:46You are Sabrina Donovan.
00:46:49Hollywood starlet.
00:46:50Believe me, it's for the best.
00:46:52No.
00:46:53He can't be gone.
00:46:54He can't.
00:46:55Yes.
00:46:56He is gone.
00:46:57And he is gone forever.
00:46:59He can't be.
00:47:00He can't be gone.
00:47:02He can't.
00:47:03He can't.
00:47:04I can't.
00:47:05He can't.
00:47:05I can't.
00:47:22Hello?
00:47:24Excuse me.
00:47:25Excuse me.
00:47:27Hi.
00:47:27Have you seen my husband?
00:47:29Please.
00:47:30He was someone bleeding out.
00:47:31I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:47:36He didn't come back in, though.
00:47:42Dan, where are you?
00:47:44I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:47:48Please try again later.
00:47:50What have I done?
00:48:01Come on, Daniel. Answer me.
00:48:10He's not gone. I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:48:22He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:48:26No.
00:48:30It's not possible.
00:48:32He will be back.
00:48:36No.
00:48:44It can't be.
00:48:47It's not a...
00:48:48Honestly, it doesn't matter. My mom will look it over anyways.
00:48:52He loves me.
00:48:54He loves Jackson.
00:48:56He wouldn't just leave us. We're his family.
00:48:59After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:49:03I got you.
00:49:26Don't let me go.
00:49:29Was I ever really paying attention?
00:49:35Daniel?
00:49:37No, it's Mom. Is everything okay?
00:49:39You sound panicked.
00:49:40Mom.
00:49:42Mom.
00:49:42Mom.
00:49:44Daniel.
00:49:45He just left us.
00:49:48Do you know where he is?
00:49:51We have to find him. We can check the hospital or the...
00:49:54Oh, honey.
00:49:55It's over.
00:49:57Daniel's not coming back.
00:50:00You knew?
00:50:01I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:50:05Enough!
00:50:06Just enough!
00:50:07Sabrina?
00:50:08What's gotten into you?
00:50:11Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:50:14Whoa.
00:50:16What's going on here? This room feels really tense.
00:50:18Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:50:21I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:50:22No.
00:50:23I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:50:26And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:50:29It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:50:32Hey, baby.
00:50:37Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:50:41Really?
00:50:42Loser?
00:50:43Yeah.
00:50:43You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:50:47And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:50:54I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame the Silver Fox
00:50:58that's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:51:02Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:51:10Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:51:14What's going through your head tonight?
00:51:17Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own shit.
00:51:20Nobody told me how.
00:51:22Oh, man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:25I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:27Yeah.
00:51:29God, my career has been a long time in the making.
00:51:31And I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:34I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:36But London?
00:51:38London lit the fire under me.
00:51:40And I feel like I found my voice.
00:51:42And it really is.
00:51:43Full steam ahead.
00:51:44Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director,
00:51:48will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:52Hollywood.
00:51:53Get out of the country.
00:51:55If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:52:00I will make your life a living hell.
00:52:05Daniel?
00:52:09Security!
00:52:10Come on, just let's talk about this.
00:52:12No.
00:52:13Come on, Celeste.
00:52:15Do something.
00:52:16Come on, Sabrina.
00:52:17Come on, Sabrina.
00:52:18Was that really necessary?
00:52:22I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:52:25Is that all you care about?
00:52:27The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:52:31God, you're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:52:37Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:52:39Of course I care about you.
00:52:42I love you.
00:52:44Then prove it.
00:52:45If you ever want me in front of a camera again,
00:52:48then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:52:55We're over.
00:52:56What?
00:52:57No, babe, babe, come on.
00:52:58Please.
00:52:58Please, I love you.
00:52:59Just think about it.
00:53:01Look at the press.
00:53:02What this will look like.
00:53:03If I have to call my security,
00:53:05all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:53:07Get out.
00:53:09Hey, just...
00:53:09Now.
00:53:10Just give me your hand.
00:53:11Come on.
00:53:11No.
00:53:13I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:53:16Nobody sees the real me.
00:53:17I see you, Sabrina.
00:53:19I see all of you.
00:53:22And you're never going to be alone again.
00:53:25He truly knew me.
00:53:28He loved me.
00:53:30Every flaw.
00:53:32Every fear.
00:53:34Contract or not.
00:53:35He truly loved me.
00:53:38I saved you from social suicide.
00:53:40Saved me?
00:53:41You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:53:45Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:53:46And he saved me from you.
00:53:50Security!
00:53:51Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:53:55Of course.
00:53:56It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:54:01Is this a personal story where we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:54:06Oh...
00:54:06Oh...
00:54:07She knows who she is.
00:54:10Um...
00:54:11I'll leave it at that.
00:54:12You arrogant little shit!
00:54:18I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
00:54:27It's Celeste Donovan.
00:54:28I need a favor.
00:54:30I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:54:35It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:54:40Mom?
00:54:41What are you doing?
00:54:45Did you just break my TV?
00:54:48Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:54:51You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:54:53You've been so kind, though.
00:54:54Um...
00:54:54It's called...
00:54:55You Drive Me Crazy.
00:54:59He's back.
00:55:01Why didn't you tell me?
00:55:03Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:55:06I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:55:09I need to get on that movie.
00:55:11Absolutely not.
00:55:13You're not working for your ex-husband.
00:55:14If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
00:55:18Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
00:55:20He still loves me.
00:55:23He has to.
00:55:25I just need to talk to him.
00:55:27Let him go!
00:55:29That's really, really low.
00:55:35Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year?
00:55:40Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:55:42To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:55:45Face it, Preston.
00:55:47You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:55:50And you're a fucking thief.
00:55:52Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:55:54You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:55:57I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:56:00Because you know what?
00:56:01Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:03It's not like that.
00:56:04Okay, look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:56:08I want to marry you.
00:56:09We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:12What's my birthday?
00:56:13Huh?
00:56:14What kind of flowers do I like?
00:56:16What's my favorite color?
00:56:17My favorite song?
00:56:19Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:21Oh, oh, wait.
00:56:22What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:24You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:27You don't love me.
00:56:28You don't even know me.
00:56:30This isn't a relationship.
00:56:32This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:35And you know what?
00:56:36I'm done.
00:56:37Get out.
00:56:38I don't want to ever see you again.
00:56:40We're over.
00:56:42Mom.
00:56:44Honey, I...
00:56:46You know, I just want what's best for you, right?
00:56:49I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
00:56:54I love you.
00:56:56I love you, too.
00:57:00There you go.
00:57:02This is, um...
00:57:04It's another movie deal.
00:57:05I'll tell you about it after.
00:57:06Okay.
00:57:07Okay.
00:57:07Okay.
00:57:08Did you get his location?
00:57:24The Oaks.
00:57:268 p.m.
00:57:27After I'm done with him,
00:57:29Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
00:57:32He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
00:57:35She's not protecting me.
00:57:46She's protecting her business.
00:57:48And I'm just a pawn.
00:57:50But if she wants a scandal,
00:57:51she'll get one.
00:57:53It's so nice having you back.
00:57:56And I don't just mean from the UK.
00:57:58Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
00:58:00A couple?
00:58:01Well, Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people,
00:58:06if you can even call them that.
00:58:07But you're healthy now.
00:58:09And I'm at the top of my career.
00:58:11I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina,
00:58:14but I really thought I could make it work.
00:58:16The marriage, the kids.
00:58:18I mean, we really tried.
00:58:20I thought I could make it go for it,
00:58:21but, um...
00:58:23It's over.
00:58:25It's over.
00:58:25I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
00:58:28she thinks Preston D. Swickin' offer.
00:58:37Oh.
00:58:38You haven't heard?
00:58:41She dumped him.
00:58:42It was all over People magazine.
00:58:44She ended it when his star faded.
00:58:46Oh, my God.
00:58:49What?
00:58:55Daniel!
00:59:00Emily.
00:59:01Amazing, as always.
00:59:04You flew in all the way from London for this?
00:59:06Please.
00:59:08I wasn't going to miss a shot
00:59:09who auditioned for the great Daniel Johnson.
00:59:12How's LA treating you?
00:59:14Oh, my God.
00:59:15Less tea, but way more traffic.
00:59:18But I am...
00:59:19I'm glad to be back.
00:59:22Well, it's no English countryside.
00:59:23Yeah.
00:59:24But it suits you.
00:59:27You definitely belong here.
00:59:31I do miss you, though.
00:59:34It was fun.
00:59:35Playing the part.
00:59:37British starlet.
00:59:38American director.
00:59:40I kept waiting for us to become something real.
00:59:44Daniel becomes an award-winning director
00:59:48and he's cheating on me
00:59:49with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:59:52He can't do this to me!
00:59:55Sabrina.
00:59:56You don't need him.
00:59:57Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:59:59How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
01:00:02Move on?
01:00:03Please, honey.
01:00:05He is using her.
01:00:07Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
01:00:10He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
01:00:13How could you say that?
01:00:14I mean, any...
01:00:15If anything, being with me hurt his career.
01:00:18He's proving that to the whole world!
01:00:21Don't you see it?
01:00:22Sabrina.
01:00:23Look at what you've got.
01:00:25A celebrated career.
01:00:26A mansion in the hills.
01:00:28An adorable kid.
01:00:30Well, when he's not whining.
01:00:32And don't forget about Preston.
01:00:34Your dream man.
01:00:36You have everything.
01:00:38I don't have him.
01:00:40Mom, I'm hungry.
01:00:42Go have the chef make something.
01:00:44No, I hate what she cooks.
01:00:45And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
01:00:47Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
01:00:49Don't talk about him like that.
01:00:51He's your dad.
01:00:52No!
01:00:53Preston is my real dad now.
01:00:55Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks
01:00:57and cleaned the toilet.
01:00:58It was fun telling him what to do.
01:01:00When did he get so cruel?
01:01:02You see, even your own son thinks
01:01:04Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
01:01:06A doormat.
01:01:08Daniel's a doormat.
01:01:10Daniel's a doormat.
01:01:11Enough!
01:01:12You little shit!
01:01:16Stop!
01:01:24Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:01:26I'm here to help you.
01:01:28Sabrina, you're making a scene.
01:01:31Let's go home.
01:01:32Sabrina?
01:01:33How could you?
01:01:34What?
01:01:34I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition,
01:01:37but he said no.
01:01:38I begged and pleaded.
01:01:40Stop lying.
01:01:42I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:01:46And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,
01:01:48to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:01:51My God.
01:01:52You're disgusting.
01:01:53I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:01:55Not anymore.
01:01:56Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:02:02I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:02:05I'm your mother.
01:02:07I only want what's best for you.
01:02:10What's best for me?
01:02:11You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:02:18That all ends today.
01:02:23You're fired.
01:02:23He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
01:02:40Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius,
01:02:44and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
01:02:47That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake,
01:02:49two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
01:02:55Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
01:02:59We'll never tell.
01:03:03Oh, my God.
01:03:04Thanks for saving me.
01:03:06She was practically eye-fucking you.
01:03:08I know.
01:03:09Sheesh.
01:03:10This is so surreal.
01:03:11I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
01:03:13I can.
01:03:14The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
01:03:17Daniel, enjoy this.
01:03:22And get used to compliments.
01:03:25There's already Oscar buzz.
01:03:27Fuck.

01:10:29you
01:11:30I just didn't know it'd be this hard.
01:11:34They hurt you, Daniel.
01:11:37They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:11:44People can change.
01:11:47But that doesn't change the past.
01:11:49And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:12:00Daniel!
01:12:01Daniel!
01:12:01Daniel!
01:12:02Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
01:12:09Yes.
01:12:10I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:12:16But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:12:17Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:12:29Way to go, Jan!
01:12:30Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:12:52We'll keep in touch.
01:12:59How many more do we have today?
01:13:0140, sir.
01:13:02Jeez.
01:13:03Hey, boy!
01:13:04How are we looking?
01:13:05We're still digging.
01:13:06Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:13:10I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:13:14All right, here's the deal.
01:13:15The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:13:19Today?
01:13:20Are you fucking kidding me?
01:13:21That's why I love you, man.
01:13:22Cool under pressure.
01:13:24This movie is going to blow the roof off.
01:13:30Oh, my God.
01:13:30All right, just bring in the next one.
01:13:31That would be Emily Blake.
01:13:38Emily.
