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.
00:00:20But Preston is awesome. He's an action spy.
00:00:24I wish he was my dad.
00:00:27My own son doesn't respect me.
00:00:30We'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.
00:00:39If you want me around, I'm in.
00:00:42That is if mom's school 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 get Michelle.
00:01:00Now 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.
00:01:28From 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?
00:01:48Now 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 spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:02:05You're really good at that.
00:02:06Oh, 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. He has to understand.
00:02:27This is Hollywood. It's just part of the job.
00:02:30Daniel, I can explain.
00:02:38Daniel, what is this?
00:02:40Look what you made me do.
00:02:48Just leave it.
00:02:52I just 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.
00:03:06I have a mirror.
00:03:06We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:03:23What?
00:03:23Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:03:26Yeah.
00:03:27Ex-mother-in-law.
00:03:28Not quite.
00:03:29That was the divorce contract.
00:03:30But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:03:35This is showbiz, baby.
00:03:37Remember that.
00:03:38I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:03:40I want a divorce.
00:03:47Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:03:49Huh?
00:03:50I want a...
00:03:55I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:57Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:58Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:03Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:04:04We'll get you some real food.
00:04:10Seriously?
00:04:12Your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:15I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:16What is this?
00:04:19Another contract?
00:04:21How big is the role?
00:04:23Who's directing?
00:04:25It's not a...
00:04:25Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:28Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:04:31Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:04:34I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:04:39Pull my weight?
00:04:40Yeah, you get it.
00:04:43Mwah!
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.
00:05:03I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:05:06I 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 permanent?
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.
00:05:26You're a washed up pack.
00:05:29Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:05:31How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:05:33I heard your agent's 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.
00:05:42Jackson, come on.
00:05:43I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:05:45No, 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.
00:06:16So we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquids.
00:06:20To be honest, that's...
00:06:22I could use a break from home.
00:06:23Trouble with the missus?
00:06:24Uh, yeah.
00:06:29It's pretty obvious.
00:06:30Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:06:34I 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.
00:06:48You said, um, a couple?
00:06:49I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official!
00:06:55She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:07:00She was so sweet.
00:07:05Need a mess to check on that shoulder for you?
00:07:08No, it's...
00:07:10It's an old wound.
00:07:12I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:07:16Daniel!
00:07:16Sweet and caring.
00:07:20So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:07:24He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:07:26and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:07:33Fuck it.
00:07:35You don't give me my shit and go.
00:07:37I can't let her create a public scene.
00:07:40All it takes is one article to get her cancelled.
00:07:42Are you going somewhere?
00:07:44Honey, oh, what a coincidence.
00:07:48We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:07:51Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:07:53A vacation?
00:07:54Finally.
00:07:54You're paying attention.
00:07:56Yeah.
00:07:58I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:08:00Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:08:02What 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.
00:08:11Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:08:13Just like any good husband would.
00:08:15Oh, I see.
00:08:17Is 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.
00:08:25You know what?
00:08:25Maybe I should go.
00:08:26I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:08:28No, please stay.
00:08:29I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:08:33No, you know what?
00:08:34I'll go.
00:08:36And clearly she wants you.
00:08:37Willing to dance to his tune.
00:08:39Daniel, wait.
00:08:41I won't ever let you go.
00:08:43He won't leave.
00:08:44He promised.
00:08:46It doesn't have to be like this.
00:08:48We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:08:51I'm going to go back.
00:08:55Daniel!
00:08:56Daniel!
00:08:56The movie's greenlit and the studio wants you to direct.
00:09:05We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:09:07I can't.
00:09:08My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:09:10After all, I've sacrificed.
00:09:12My scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:09:18At 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.
00:09:26How you doing?
00:09:26Oh, good, dear.
00:09:28I 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.
00:09:37I'm just trying to help.
00:09:38I know.
00:09:39But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:09:43I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done,
00:09:47but it's time you lived your life.
00:09:51I am, Mom.
00:09:51And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:10:00You have a wonderful fear.
00:10:02You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:10:04Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:10:06I gotta go.
00:10:07Love you.
00:10:11What is it, Mom?
00:10:12Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:10:14Our favorite leading man.
00:10:17Come on.
00:10:24Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart
00:10:27and is stealing it back again.
00:10:35You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:10:39What was that?
00:10:40Daniel, what is happening?
00:10:49It was Dad, Mom.
00:10:51Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:10:53What?
00:10:53I'm so scared.
00:10:54That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:10:56What the hell, Daniel?
00:10:58I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:10:59I came in looking for a fight.
00:11:00What?
00:11:01I didn't.
00:11:02Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:11:04You're acting like a jealous child.
00:11:06I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:11:08He threw a fish tank at me.
00:11:09It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:11:11Grow up.
00:11:12Remember where in the public eye?
00:11:14What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:11:17What?
00:11:17Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:11:21Maybe I should go.
00:11:22I'm sorry.
00:11:23No.
00:11:24Oh, my God.
00:11:26He's lying.
00:11:28You're a monster.
00:11:30And in front of your son?
00:11:31You have to be kidding.
00:11:33We have to get you to the hospital.
00:11:36We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:11:38What?
00:11:39Clean this up.
00:11:42Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:11:47She's mine now, loser.
00:11:49Hello, 911.
00:11:59What's your emergency?
00:12:00I'm bleeding out.
00:12:02I think I hit an artery.
00:12:03I need an ambulance.
00:12:04No.
00:12:05No.
00:12:06Good 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.
00:12:17Oh, 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, but you don't mind, right?
00:12:29Oh, there he is.
00:12:31The assistant.
00:12:32I'll tell you what.
00:12:32There's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:12:36How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:12:40Stop.
00:12:42I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:12:48Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:12:51Daniel.
00:12:52Oh.
00:12:52Don't embarrass me.
00:12:54No, it's fine.
00:12:55Whoa, you played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:12:59He's not just tough.
00:13:01He's Brett Stale tough.
00:13:03You think, you know?
00:13:04My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:13:06He doesn't let me do anything.
00:13:07Well, now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of Dad's rules.
00:13:11What are you saying, huh?
00:13:12Yeah.
00:13:13Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:13:17That's fine.
00:13:18That's fine.
00:13:20Just relax, okay?
00:13:22Be nice.
00:13:31Some people never change.
00:13:33But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her.
00:13:37He breaks her heart again.
00:13:39And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:13:47That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:13:50Who knew the house hubby had it in him?
00:13:52I'm an industry joke now.
00:13:55Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the shelf for 10 years?
00:14:00Wow, you did your homework.
00:14:02Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:14:07I will tell you this.
00:14:08I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:14:14Daniel really did it.
00:14:15The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:14:19You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:14:22You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:14:24Our contract expired.
00:14:27I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:14:29If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing.
00:14:33The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:14:39I'll always love my son.
00:14:41But he's a bully, and he learned her from the best in the business.
00:14:44His grandmother.
00:14:45You used to worship, Sabrina.
00:14:47What 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.
00:14:57But her career is hanging by a thread.
00:14:59I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:15:03You've always loved her, Daniel.
00:15:04I've seen it.
00:15:06She needs that now.
00:15:08Stay.
00:15:10Marry her.
00:15:11Love her.
00:15:13So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:15:15I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:15:18And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:15:22If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:15:29This was the last one.
00:15:32Mom, Daniel.
00:15:35What's going on?
00:15:38Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:15:42I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:15:45So ten years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with it.
00:15:48Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:16:09She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:16:12Sabrina Donovan?
00:16:16I could scream.
00:16:17I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:16:18Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:16:23OMG, I 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.
00:16:29Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:16:31Wait, are you two dating?
00:16:33Oh, well, actually...
00:16:34This is totally a date.
00:16:36All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:16:44Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:16:47You're not really a part of my brand.
00:16:49Your brand?
00:16:50It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:16:53You get it, right?
00:17:02So, 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 if you can sleep with your ex?
00:17:21No, it's not like that.
00:17:23I...
00:17:23What?
00:17:26You know what?
00:17:26Fine.
00:17:29You two look great together.
00:17:31Daniel, I...
00:17:32And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:17:51Um...
00:17:52I don't know where our kettle or our extra towels are.
00:17:59Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:18:04I was never the homemaker.
00:18:10Please, Daniel.
00:18:23I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:18:29If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:18:34I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:18:49Look at her now.
00:18:50Playing house for another man.
00:18:52If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:19:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:19:06You once liked my short film.
00:19:07I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:19:09It needs the right producer.
00:19:19I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:19:24Where have you been?
00:19:26I kept calling.
00:19:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:19:30Huh?
00:19:30What?
00:19:34What?
00:19:35I've been busy.
00:19:36Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:19:39Seriously?
00:19:40Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:19:42I told you.
00:19:43He's just a friend.
00:19:46Yeah.
00:19:47That's what you want to call it?
00:19:50I...
00:19:50I just...
00:19:51I'm sorry.
00:19:53I...
00:19:54Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:19:57It is what it is.
00:20:04But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:20:07You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:20:12And I think you should go for it.
00:20:14I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:20:17But I just...
00:20:18I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:20:23Seriously.
00:20:25I...
00:20:25I care about you.
00:20:27I'm no man.
00:20:33I'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.
00:20:39I pay attention?
00:20:42Since when do I not pay attention?
00:20:44She signed the papers without reading them.
00:20:47That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:20:49A headline.
00:20:49A performance.
00:20:53Sabrina.
00:20:53Yeah, it's nice.
00:20:59But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:21:01I'm still starving.
00:21:16Make me some food.
00:21:17Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:21:20Stew?
00:21:20What is this?
00:21:23A soup kitchen?
00:21:24I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets.
00:21:27If the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:21:30I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:21:34Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:21:37Oh, babe.
00:21:38For real?
00:21:39Yeah.
00:21:40My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:21:43Donovan Cosmetics.
00:21:45I'm rich.
00:21:46Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:21:51I 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.
00:21:57You'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.
00:22:02Please, Mr. Eastwood.
00:22:03My dad won't let me have anything.
00:22:05Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:22:09So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:22:13My treat.
00:22:15Here we go.
00:22:16Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:22:19I don't mind.
00:22:20All of you insist.
00:22:21I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:22:24Oh, and I wouldn't invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:22:31So, anyways.
00:22:32Come on, Ben.
00:22:32Let's go.
00:22:34That's great.
00:22:35Gotcha.
00:22:35There we go.
00:22:39There's Paps.
00:22:40You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:22:43Last time.
00:22:44I promise.
00:22:46You're right.
00:22:48It is the last time.
00:22:51Hey, guys.
00:22:53Bye.
00:22:54Jackson.
00:23:01Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:23:05Contract's fine.
00:23:08It's over.
00:23:08Sabrina, I'm good.
00:23:10You know what?
00:23:12I hate fighting.
00:23:13So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:23:16I was thinking we could revisit your script.
00:23:20I gave that to you three years ago.
00:23:25You tell me you finally read it?
00:23:28Well, yeah.
00:23:29The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:23:32The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:23:35I mean, we have to do this.
00:23:37Me and you.
00:23:38The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:23:40I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:23:46A long time ago.
00:23:48Well, how about you make us some lattes, and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves
00:23:53into the script.
00:23:55Just like we used to in film school.
00:23:56There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:24:01I would have melted in her hands.
00:24:04Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:24:06What?
00:24:19Hmm.
00:24:21Hmm.
00:24:22I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:24:26and it was awful.
00:24:29Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you, and I'll be sure to tell him how
00:24:32you like it.
00:24:33That's not what I meant.
00:24:36I like it when you make it.
00:24:39I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:24:43I knew it.
00:24:45You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:24:48I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:24:52God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:24:56Married people are fucking boring.
00:25:00It's good to know where you stand.
00:25:02No, Daniel.
00:25:03No, that's not what I meant.
00:25:07Please.
00:25:08It's better than yours.
00:25:10Yeah.
00:25:11Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:25:13Oh.
00:25:15Oh, good.
00:25:16You're up.
00:25:17Um, after dinner, we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:25:21It's fun.
00:25:25Why don't look at me like that?
00:25:26I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:25:29Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:25:33How lucky for him.
00:25:35He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:25:38Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:25:41Listen, man, I've had every opportunity to sleep with her, and nothing happened.
00:25:48You can trust me.
00:25:51Preston, I think you're not eating me right now.
00:25:55All right.
00:25:56Oh, right.
00:25:58Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:26:00I, I, when you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:26:06I, I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:26:10Just ignore him.
00:26:10He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:26:12No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:26:16Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:26:18Jealous?
00:26:20My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:26:24Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:26:25You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:26:35That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:26:41Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:26:47God, God, you're unbelievable.
00:26:54What's going on?
00:26:55Honey!
00:26:57I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:27:01If the paparazzi catch him next to you, oh.
00:27:04But I need to go.
00:27:06I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:27:09Think about it, Daniel.
00:27:14Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:27:21Sabrina, we, we need to talk.
00:27:23Ugh, can it wait?
00:27:25I'm seriously so spent.
00:27:27I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:27:32I saw Preston was there.
00:27:33I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:27:37I mean, we owe him.
00:27:39Yeah.
00:27:40And then he cheated on you.
00:27:41And I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:27:43I'm starving.
00:27:44When are we eating?
00:27:46Lunch is on the stove.
00:27:48But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:27:50No!
00:27:51I want to eat now!
00:28:03You always know the spot.
00:28:05He doesn't listen.
00:28:07Daniel, please.
00:28:08I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:28:15I got something I need to tell you.
00:28:17I'll make it quick.
00:28:18This isn't easy.
00:28:20But I...
00:28:20Ew!
00:28:20What is this?
00:28:22It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:28:24I don't want healthy food.
00:28:25I want chicken nuggets.
00:28:26Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:28:29You can't have that every day.
00:28:31It's not healthy for you.
00:28:32But I want them.
00:28:34Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:28:37You suck.
00:28:39I want chicken nuggets.
00:28:41Give me chicken nuggets.
00:28:42I waited.
00:28:51I gave it everything I had.
00:28:54But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:28:56And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:29:02Enough.
00:29:02Just enough.
00:29:08I want a divorce.
00:29:12Mommy, please.
00:29:22We can't leave him.
00:29:24I...
00:29:24I have...
00:29:26I have to help Preston.
00:29:35I...
00:29:36I...
00:29:36I...
00:29:37I...
00:29:38I...
00:29:39I...
00:29:40I...
00:29:41I...
00:29:42Come on, Jackson.
00:29:49Daniel!
00:29:50I got you.
00:29:51Don't let me go!
00:29:54She's made her choice.
00:29:55There's no going back.
00:29:57We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:30:03Preston Eastwood.
00:30:05The man that broke my wife's heart.
00:30:06All right, cut.
00:30:14That's a wrap, everyone.
00:30:17We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:30:21Sabrina was a rising star.
00:30:23I 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...
00:30:35Let her go.
00:30:36Let's come back.
00:30:40Bye.
00:30:45Chillstep.
00:30:46All
00:30:54hurts.
00:30:55Come
00:30:55か
00:30:56You destroyed me, Preston.
00:31:08You said that didn't work.
00:31:11Sabrina, don't!
00:31:26Stay back.
00:31:27I mean it.
00:31:29Sabrina, don't do this.
00:31:32Just...
00:31:35Just give me your hand.
00:31:41No!
00:31:50Daniel!
00:31:52I got you.
00:31:53No!
00:31:54Don't let me go!
00:31:56I won't ever let you go.
00:31:59I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:32:05Nobody 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.
00:32:17There he is.
00:32:18God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:32:20Man.
00:32:21No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:32:24Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:32:26I got some.
00:32:27Yeah, I got some.
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:29What do you need?
00:32:30Oh, oh.
00:32:31Yeah, there you go.
00:32:32I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:32:33Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:32:34Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:32:35Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:32:42No.
00:32:43A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:32:45Why would I be threatened by that?
00:32:46Why would I be threatened by that?
00:32:47It's finally time to make this happen.
00:32:58Yeah, it's true.
00:33:02You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:33:06No.
00:33:07A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:33:10Why would I be threatened by that?
00:33:15It'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.
00:33:40Here we go.
00:33:41Ooh.
00:33:43No!
00:33:44Not to play with that.
00:33:46You never let me do anything!
00:33:50Come on.
00:33:50It's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:33:53You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:33:55It's not about the money.
00:33:56It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:33:59Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:34:00Bad examples.
00:34:03Yeah?
00:34:04What's that supposed to mean?
00:34:06You're so annoying!
00:34:08Don't push.
00:34:14I said don't push.
00:34:16Go get a book or something.
00:34:17Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:34:19He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-servant like you.
00:34:22God, what the hell?
00:34:23Let's just show me.
00:34:33Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:34:38Now we can make a clean break.
00:34:40I 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.
00:34:58Don't worry about it.
00:35:14Just drive.
00:35:15I used to ache for her approval.
00:35:31Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:35:33Boy, it's all assets.
00:35:40Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:35:42The waves are all spousal support.
00:35:45No.
00:35:46No, he can't leave me.
00:35:48He can't do this to me.
00:35:50I won't sign off on him.
00:36:01No.
00:36:01All this time, he's going to leave me?
00:36:20What the hell?
00:36:22What happened?
00:36:24Oh my God, Daniel.
00:36:26What the hell happened?
00:36:28Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:30Are you okay?
00:36:30Look at her go.
00:36:33Hollywood's finest.
00:36:35Always performing when there's an audience.
00:36:38It's Daniel.
00:36:39He'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.
00:36:47No.
00:36:47No, that's not true.
00:36:49If Preston weren't here,
00:36:51Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:36:54Can you imagine the allegations?
00:36:56Daniel, is that true?
00:37:03Sabrina.
00:37:05Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:09I think one of them is broken.
00:37:12Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:37:15But Daniel, imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:26Seriously?
00:37:27Stay down.
00:37:28I know.
00:37:29I see.
00:37:29Yeah.
00:37:30Oh.
00:37:31I'm going to go call the doctor.
00:37:33Okay?
00:37:35What are you doing?
00:37:37I thought you were hurt.
00:37:38I think I'll pull through.
00:37:46So what are you doing?
00:37:48I don't know what I've 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,
00:37:56I have to house to herself.
00:37:58I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:38:00Come on.
00:38:07What am I doing?
00:38:12Daniel is still injured.
00:38:14He should be home.
00:38:17Sabrina?
00:38:27I'm hungry.
00:38:29Dad, breakfast should be ready by now.
00:38:33Jackson?
00:38:33I 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, he's gone!
00:38:50He's gone!
00:38:52Why would you say that?
00:38:54He was so embarrassing.
00:38:56Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:38:57Mr. Eastwood?
00:38:59What did Preston say?
00:39:00He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:39:03should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:39:05than 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,
00:39:15that's none of your business.
00:39:16I wish Preston was my dad.
00:39:18You're a pathetic loser.
00:39:20Zip it, Jackson.
00:39:21You should probably listen to your kid and head out
00:39:24because you're starting to make a scene.
00:39:27I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:39:28That's not what I see.
00:39:29You showed up uninvited,
00:39:32in street rags,
00:39:34abused Sabrina's kid,
00:39:35and 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
00:39:47for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:39:49This was all a stunt, was it?
00:39:52You were revolting.
00:39:53No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:39:56Hey.
00:39:56Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:40:00Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:40:03Yeah.
00:40:04Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:40:06Oh, yeah?
00:40:07What lesson is that, Preston?
00:40:08You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on
00:40:10so that you can leech off her career?
00:40:12Mm.
00:40:21What are you talking about?
00:40:38forget it forget it just pretend i didn't say anything when i caught you and daniel at the

01:11:21I know that look, Daniel.
01:11:27You're thinking of going back to them.
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.
01:11:42People can change, but that doesn't change the past.
01:11:52And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:11:58Daniel!
01:11:59Daniel!
01:12:00Daniel!
01:12:01Daniel!
01:12:02Daniel!
01:12:03Daniel!
01:12:04Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the 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.
01:12:15But, okay.
01:12:16I'll tell you this.
01:12:17I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:12:25Way to go, Jan!
01:12:26Daniel!
01:12:27Daniel!
01:12:28Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:12:30We'll keep it done.

01:12:45Forty.
01:12:47Trevor.
01:12:49Thank you!
01:12:50We'll keep it done.
01:12:56How many more do we have today?
01:13:0040, sir, jeez.
01:13:02Hey, boy! How we looking?
01:13:04We're so big in here.
01:13:06Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:13:08I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:13:12Alright, here's the deal.
01:13:14The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:13:18Today? Are you fucking kidding me?
01:13:20That's why I love you, man. Cool under pressure.
01:13:23This movie is gonna blow the roof off.
01:13:26Oh, my God.
01:13:30Alright, just bring in the next one.
01:13:32That would be...
01:13:34Emily Blake.
