Short filmTranscript
00:00:00He used to worship.
00:00:02And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:10That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:13Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:18Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:24Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I'm on my way back.
00:00:30Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:37Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:42You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:48Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:52If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:00I'll always love my son. But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:08You used to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:11That was a long time ago.
00:01:13America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:17All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:20When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:26You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:29She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her.
00:01:35So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:38I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:42And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:46If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:52This was the last one.
00:01:56Mom, Daniel.
00:01:57What's going on?
00:02:03What's going on?
00:02:05Honey!
00:02:07I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:11If the paparazzi catch him next to you...
00:02:13But I need to go. I have an appointment with your child.
00:02:19Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:20Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.
00:02:29Then I will be free.
00:02:31Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:33Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:37I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:41I saw it. Preston was there.
00:02:44I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college.
00:02:47I mean, we owe him.
00:02:48Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:53I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:56Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:57But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:00No! I want to eat now!
00:03:13Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:03:15He doesn't listen.
00:03:16Daniel, please.
00:03:18I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs at that god-awful Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:25I've got something I need to tell you.
00:03:27I'll make it quick.
00:03:28This isn't easy, but I...
00:03:30Ew! What is this?
00:03:32It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:34I don't want healthy food. I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:36Chicken nuggets! Chicken nuggets!
00:03:38You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:03:42But I want that!
00:03:43Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:47You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:52I waited.
00:03:53I gave it everything I had.
00:03:55I gave it everything I had.
00:03:58But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:03:59And myself as a wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:03Enough. Just enough.
00:04:06I want a divorce.
00:04:21I want a divorce.
00:04:28Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:31Huh?
00:04:33I want a...
00:04:36I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:40Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:44Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:04:46Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:56I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:58What is this?
00:05:00Another contract?
00:05:02How big is the role?
00:05:04Who's directing?
00:05:06It's not a...
00:05:07Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:12Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:15I have that red carpet event coming up.
00:05:18And I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:20Pull my weight?
00:05:22Yeah, you get it.
00:05:25Mwah! Love you.
00:05:27I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:05:31If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:34Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:37The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:47We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:49I can't.
00:05:50My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:52After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:06:01At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:06:03I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:07Hey, mom.
00:06:08How you doing?
00:06:08Oh, good, dear.
00:06:09I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:15Do you need more?
00:06:15No, no, no, no.
00:06:16You've already done so much.
00:06:19I'm just trying to help.
00:06:20I know.
00:06:21But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:25I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:32I am, mom, and I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:06:42You're wonderful, dear.
00:06:44You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:46Everyone, come quick, come quick.
00:06:48I gotta go.
00:06:49Love you.
00:06:53What is it, mom?
00:06:54Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:57Our favorite leading man.
00:06:59Come on.
00:07:02Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:14Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:23All right, cut.
00:07:25That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:28We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:30Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:34I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:38Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:41If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:45He's.
00:07:46He falls for about.
00:07:54And we're gonna go.
00:08:01He he he.
00:08:04It destroyed me.
00:08:18Rest in my life.
00:08:34Sabrina! Don't!
00:08:37Stay back!
00:08:38I mean it!
00:08:40Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:43Just...
00:08:46Just give me your hand.
00:09:00No!
00:09:02Daniel!
00:09:04I got you.
00:09:05No!
00:09:06Don't let me go!
00:09:08I won't ever let you go.
00:09:15I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:18Nobody sees around me.
00:09:20I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:22I see all of you.
00:09:24And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:09:27Good to see ya!
00:09:31Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:09:33Oh, two long.
00:09:34Look at you!
00:09:35Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:39Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:40Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:41Are you kidding?
00:09:42Oh, Daniel.
00:09:43Uh, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:45Oh, there he is!
00:09:46The assistant!
00:09:47I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:57God, how did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:02Stop!
00:10:03I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:10Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:13Daniel!
00:10:14Oh.
00:10:15Don't embarrass me.
00:10:16No, it's fine.
00:10:17I'm sorry.
00:10:18Whoa, you played Brett Stael in your action spy movie?
00:10:22He's not just tough, he's Brett Stael tough, you think, you know?
00:10:26My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it. He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:30Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules, what are you saying?
00:10:34Huh?
00:10:35Yeah.
00:10:36Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:40It's fine.
00:10:41It's fine.
00:10:43Just relax, okay?
00:10:45Be nice.
00:10:54Some people never change.
00:10:56But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:02Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:04But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on the cell.
00:11:15Oh, I need to be careful.
00:11:16You alright?
00:11:17I'm still starving.
00:11:21Make me some food.
00:11:22Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:25Stew?
00:11:27Ew.
00:11:28What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:29I told you a hundred times, I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:32Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:35I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:39Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:42Oh, babe.
00:11:43For real?
00:11:44Yeah.
00:11:45My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:49Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:51Rich.
00:11:53Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:57I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:01Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:02You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:04You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:06They were so dull.
00:12:07Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:10Lucky for you, Uncle Preston, it's a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:15So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:12:19My treat.
00:12:21Here we go.
00:12:22What to do?
00:12:23Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:24I don't mind.
00:12:25All of you insist.
00:12:27I mean, I'm already dressed, so...
00:12:29Oh, and I wouldn't bite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:12:36So...
00:12:37Anyways!
00:12:38Come in, let's go!
00:12:40That's great.
00:12:41Gotcha.
00:12:42Here we go.
00:12:43Oh!
00:12:45Paps, you don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:49Last time.
00:12:50I promise.
00:12:53You're right.
00:12:54It is the last time.
00:12:57Guys?
00:12:58Yes.
00:12:59Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:11Contract signed.
00:13:13It's over.
00:13:15Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:19I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:24Is it ten years of heartbreak?
00:13:25I don't care if I walk away with that, but...
00:13:27I don't care if I walk away with that.
00:13:28I don't care if I walk away with that.
00:13:29I don't care if I walk away with that.
00:13:30I don't care if I walk away with that.
00:13:31I don't care if I walk away with that.
00:13:32Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:33She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:34Sabrina Donovan?
00:13:35I could scream.
00:13:36I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:37What's that?
00:13:38I could scream.
00:13:39Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:47She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:52Sabrina Donovan, I could scream.
00:13:55I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:56Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:01Oh, gee, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:14:04The scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:14:06Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:09Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:11Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:15All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:22Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:25You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:27Your brand?
00:14:28It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:31You get it, right?
00:14:36So, you two are a thing?
00:14:42Well, I...
00:14:43It's okay, babe.
00:14:44We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:46This is so going viral.
00:14:57I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:59It looks like more than dating.
00:15:01Is this your son?
00:15:02I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:05Don't be silly.
00:15:07You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:09That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:11He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:15But Preston is awesome.
00:15:17He's an action spy.
00:15:19I wish he was my dad.
00:15:22My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:25But we'll see if Preston's the type of daddy wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with a call girl.
00:15:31It's okay, buddy.
00:15:32Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:34If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:37That is if mom's school with it.
00:15:39Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:41Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:44Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:47Come on.
00:15:49Let's go to Michelle.
00:16:05Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:09I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:13Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:19Daniel!
00:16:21You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:24On the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:28Daniel, he's here?
00:16:29Did he see us?
00:16:30Is he looking over here?
00:16:32Oh, fuck, that's not good.
00:16:33I was just doing that for Felicia.
00:16:35It didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:36Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:38Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:42Who cares about him, mommy?
00:16:44Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:46Jackson, enough.
00:16:46What do I do?
00:16:50Well, that's it then.
00:16:52Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:54You need to leverage your relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:57I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:01You're really good at that.
00:17:03Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:07A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:12I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:18I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:21Daniel loves me.
00:17:22He has to understand.
00:17:23This is Hollywood.
00:17:24It's just part of the job.
00:17:27Daniel?
00:17:28I can explain.
00:17:34Daniel, what is this?
00:17:37I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:40All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:43Are you going somewhere?
00:17:45Honey!
00:17:46Oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:48We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:51Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:53A vacation?
00:17:54Final.
00:17:55You're paying attention.
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:58I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:00Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:02What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:04Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:05That's not what I meant.
00:18:06Whoa.
00:18:07Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:10That's fine.
00:18:11Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:18:14Just like any good husband would.
00:18:15Oh, look how you see.
00:18:17Is it me?
00:18:19Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:21I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:23I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:25You know what?
00:18:26Maybe I should go.
00:18:27I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:28No, please stay.
00:18:30I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:33No, you know what?
00:18:35I'll go.
00:18:36And clearly she wants you.
00:18:38Going to dance this soon.
00:18:39Daniel, wait.
00:18:42I won't ever let you go.
00:18:44He won't leave.
00:18:45He promised.
00:18:46It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:49We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:51I'm going to go back.
00:18:56Daniel!
00:19:01Let them here.
00:19:03Yeah.
00:19:06Oh!
00:19:08Oh, good.
00:19:09You're up.
00:19:10Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:15It's fun.
00:19:18Don't look at me like that.
00:19:19But I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:22Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:26How lucky for him.
00:19:28He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:31Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:35Listen, Matt.
00:19:37I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:41You can trust me.
00:19:44Preston, I think you're at the same time.
00:19:46You need to write down.
00:19:48All right.
00:19:49Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:19:53I, I, when you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:59I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:20:03Just ignore him.
00:20:04He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:05No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:09Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:11Jealous?
00:20:11My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:17Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:21You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:25That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:34Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I could look after him?
00:20:39Oh my God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:46Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:51No, it's not like that.
00:20:53I, I, what?
00:20:54You know what, fine.
00:20:59The two look great together.
00:21:01Daniel, I...
00:21:14And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:21Um...
00:21:22I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:35I was never the homemaker.
00:21:40Please, Daniel.
00:21:41I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:01If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:04I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:19Look at her now.
00:22:21Playing house for another man.
00:22:23If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:27There he is.
00:22:46God, I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:22:49Man, no, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. work at life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:53I've got some.
00:22:59What do you mean?
00:23:00Oh, oh.
00:23:01Yeah, here you go.
00:23:02I don't want to do some of this shit, but...
00:23:04I doubt you'll like it.
00:23:05Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:07Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:09Hey, uh...
00:23:14You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:18You're not?
00:23:19A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:23Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:27It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:31What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:43Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:44I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:48And it's unfair!
00:23:49That's a shame, huh?
00:23:50You know what?
00:23:51Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:52Here we go.
00:23:54Ooh!
00:23:55No!
00:23:56No!
00:23:57Not to play with them!
00:23:59You never let me do anything!
00:24:02Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:05You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:07It's not about the money.
00:24:09It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:12Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:24:14bad examples.
00:24:16Yeah?
00:24:16What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:19You're so annoying!
00:24:21Don't push!
00:24:23I said don't push.
00:24:29Go get a book or something.
00:24:30Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:32He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-serving like you.
00:24:35God, what the hell is he just showing me?
00:24:41I called a lesson.
00:24:42I'm teaching a kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:43He's not!
00:24:44You're a kid.
00:24:45I wish I was!
00:24:46I hope Mom buries him so you can be gone forever!
00:24:50I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:24:52Ouch!
00:24:53I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:24:55So why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:24:57Maybe it will be.
00:24:59But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:02You?
00:25:04Man of the house?
00:25:05Please.
00:25:06You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:07I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:11And you're washed a pack!
00:25:13Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:15How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:17I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:25:19I'm a fucking star!
00:25:20A star?
00:25:22A star that needs his ex to bring it back into the spotlight.
00:25:26Jackson, come on.
00:25:27I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:29No, I'm not going!
00:25:30Preston's way cooler than you!
00:25:32Preston!
00:25:33Preston!
00:25:34Preston!
00:25:35Preston!
00:25:36Preston!
00:25:37Preston!
00:25:38Preston!
00:25:39Preston!
00:25:40Preston!
00:25:41Preston!
00:25:42Preston!
00:25:43Preston!
00:25:44Preston!
00:25:45Preston!
00:25:46Preston!
00:25:47Preston!
00:25:48Preston!
00:25:49Preston!
00:25:59Preston!
00:26:01Preston!
00:26:01Preston!
00:26:02Preston!
00:26:03Preston!
00:26:04automobiles!
00:26:05Preston!
00:26:06Daniel, what is happening?
00:26:12It was Dad, Mom. Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:26:16What?
00:26:16I'm so scared.
00:26:17That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:19What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:20I just wanted to hang out with you.
00:26:21I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:23What? I didn't.
00:26:25Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:26You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:29I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:31He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:32It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:26:34Bro, Mom, remember we're in the public eye?
00:26:37What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:40What? Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:26:44Maybe I should go.
00:26:45I'm sorry.
00:26:46No. Oh, my God.
00:26:49He's lying.
00:26:51You're a monster.
00:26:53And in front of your son?
00:26:54You have to be kidding.
00:26:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:57Sure.
00:26:59We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:02Clean this up.
00:27:04Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:10She's mine now, loser.
00:27:21Hello, segment one.
00:27:22What's your emergency?
00:27:24Really?
00:27:25I think I hit an hour.
00:27:26I need an ambulance now.
00:27:28Now.
00:27:29You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you with the liquid.
00:27:45To be honest, that's...
00:27:46I could use a break from home.
00:27:48Trouble with the missus?
00:27:49Uh, yeah.
00:27:54Pretty obvious.
00:27:55Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:59I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:28:03We've pressed in Eastwood.
00:28:05True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:09I've been obsessed with them since breaking the eyes.
00:28:13You said, um, couple?
00:28:15I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official.
00:28:19Daniel, she even helped me repositioned Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:24She was so sweet.
00:28:30Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:33No, it's...
00:28:35It's my wound.
00:28:37I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:41Daniel!
00:28:43Sweet and caring.
00:28:45So Preston's found the wife I always wanted.
00:28:48He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:28:51and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:57Fuck!
00:28:59Fuck!
00:29:01Let me get my shit and go on.
00:29:04Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:06You once liked my short film.
00:29:08I have a strip I've been sitting on.
00:29:18It needs the right producer.
00:29:20I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you read it.
00:29:25Where have you been?
00:29:26I kept calling.
00:29:28I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:31Huh?
00:29:31Oh, I've been busy.
00:29:37As soon as I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:40Seriously?
00:29:41Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:47Yeah.
00:29:48That's what you want to call it?
00:29:49I, I just, I'm sorry.
00:29:54I, bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:30:02It is what it is.
00:30:05But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:09You even just hint at a relationship, and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:13And I think you should go for it.
00:30:15I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:18But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:25Seriously.
00:30:26I, I care about you.
00:30:32I love it.
00:30:34I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:36I know when you're angry.
00:30:38Really?
00:30:38I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:40I pay attention.
00:30:43Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:45She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:48That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:50A headline.
00:30:52A performance.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:58Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:59You know what?
00:31:01I hate fighting.
00:31:02So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:05I was thinking.
00:31:07We could revisit your script.
00:31:12I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14You tell me you finally read it?
00:31:17Well, yeah.
00:31:18The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:31:21The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:24I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:26Me and you.
00:31:27The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:29I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:35A long time ago.
00:31:37Well, how about you make us some lattes, and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves
00:31:43into the script.
00:31:44Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:47There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:50I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:52Now, I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:56Fine.
00:32:10I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone, and
00:32:16it was awful.
00:32:18Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you, and I'll be sure to tell him how
00:32:22you like it.
00:32:23That's not what I meant.
00:32:25I like it when you make it.
00:32:29I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:33I knew it.
00:32:35You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:37I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:42It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:45Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:50It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:52No, Daniel.
00:32:53No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:00Look what you made me do.
00:33:04Just leave it.
00:33:06I just thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:10And what?
00:33:11It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:13I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:15And look what I get for it.
00:33:18You know what?
00:33:19Forget it.
00:33:20I heard from here.
00:33:21We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:37What?
00:33:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:40Yeah.
00:33:41Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:42Not quite.
00:33:43That was the divorce contract.
00:33:44But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's MTA.
00:33:49This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:51Remember that.
00:33:52I'm texting you the address of where's Mimi.
00:33:54I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:10Oh, please.
00:34:11She's always been so secretive.
00:34:13I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:18I read somewhere that she was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:25Oh, wow.
00:34:26If we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:28Come here.
00:34:29Oh.
00:34:32Jackson!
00:34:34We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:36Do you know where she is?
00:34:38Or who she's with?
00:34:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:41He's been staying with us.
00:34:44Really?
00:34:45Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:48Oh, I hope so.
00:34:49I really hope so.
00:34:50He's way cooler than my old-born real dad.
00:34:54Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:58Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:01What are you doing here?
00:35:08You never come to these things.
00:35:10Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:14Get lost.
00:35:15You embarrass us.
00:35:16Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:18I'm your father.
00:35:19I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:24Is there a problem?
00:35:25Oh, my God.
00:35:32That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:33How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:37If that was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:39I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:41You're a pathetic loser.
00:35:43Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:44You should probably listen to your kid and head out because you're starting to make a scene.
00:35:50I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:51That's not what I see.
00:35:52You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:36:02That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:05It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:08And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:12This was all I stopped, was it?
00:36:15You were revolting.
00:36:17No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:19Hey.
00:36:19How are you watching now?
00:36:23Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:26Yeah.
00:36:27Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:29Oh, yeah?
00:36:30What lesson is that, Preston?
00:36:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:35Hmm.
00:36:36What the hell?
00:36:58What happened?
00:37:00Oh, my God.
00:37:03Daniel.
00:37:04What the hell happened?
00:37:06Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:07Are you okay?
00:37:09Look at her go.
00:37:11Hollywood's finest.
00:37:12Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:15It's Daniel.
00:37:17He's a monster.
00:37:18He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:21Mommy.
00:37:22Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:24No, no, that's not true.
00:37:27If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:32Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:36Daniel.
00:37:37Is that true?
00:37:41Sabrina.
00:37:43Oh, yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:47I think one of them is broken.
00:37:50Sabrina, honey, we need to help Preston.
00:37:53But, Daniel.
00:37:59Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:38:13Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:38:16I have to help Preston.
00:38:20Come on, Jackson.
00:38:41Daniel!
00:38:43I got you.
00:38:44No, let me go.
00:38:45She's made her choice.
00:38:48There's no going back.
00:38:49We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:39:02Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:39:06Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:09I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:11There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:16Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:18In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:21If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:28Don't worry about it.
00:39:43Just dry.
00:39:44Don't worry about it.
00:39:45Just dry.
00:39:46I used to beg for her approval.
00:40:00Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:40:04Seriously?
00:40:06So long.
00:40:07What is that?
00:40:09I'm going to call the doctor, okay?
00:40:12What are you doing?
00:40:15I thought you were hurt.
00:40:17I think I'll pull through.
00:40:25So what are you doing?
00:40:27I've always wanted to.
00:40:29Come on.
00:40:30I know you want this.
00:40:31I see the way you look at me.
00:40:33How that Daniel's gone.
00:40:34We have the house to ourself.
00:40:36I could finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:42What am I doing?
00:40:51Daniel is still injured.
00:40:53He should be home.
00:40:57Sabrina?
00:41:08Kristen, get off.
00:41:09What?
00:41:11Hey, we can finally.
00:41:13I said get off.
00:41:15What?
00:41:16I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:17No, forget about him.
00:41:19Look.
00:41:20I love Jackson, and I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:41:24I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:41:28I mean, come on.
00:41:29Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:41:32Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:34What?
00:41:35Look.
00:41:36He's already moved on.
00:41:38No.
00:41:42What have I done?
00:41:44Where is he?
00:41:45What about me?
00:41:46You had your chance ten years ago.
00:41:49I need to go take care of my husband.
00:41:58Hello?
00:41:59Excuse me.
00:42:01Excuse me.
00:42:02Hi.
00:42:02Have you seen my husband?
00:42:04Please, here was someone bleeding out.
00:42:07I saw him stumble outside, holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:42:11He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:13Oh, no.
00:42:17God, Dan, where are you?
00:42:19I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:42:23Please try again later.
00:42:24God, what have I done?
00:42:37Come on, Daniel.
00:42:39Answer me.
00:42:45He's not gone.
00:42:47I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:42:58He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:43:02No.
00:43:05It's not possible.
00:43:08He will be back.
00:43:11No.
00:43:11No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:12No.
00:43:13No.
00:43:13No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:14No.
00:43:15No.
00:43:17No.
00:43:22Wait, it's all the assets.
00:43:24Climbed zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:27The waves all spousal support.
00:43:30No.
00:43:31No.
00:43:31He can't leave me.
00:43:33He can't do this to me.
00:43:34I won't sign off on him.
00:43:45No.
00:43:46All this time, who's going to leave me?
00:44:05It can't be.
00:44:09It's not her.
00:44:10Honestly, it doesn't matter. My mom will look it over anyways.
00:44:13He loves me. He loves Jackson.
00:44:18He wouldn't just leave us. We're his family.
00:44:21After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:44:43I got you.
00:44:48Don't let me go!
00:44:51Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:57Daniel?
00:44:58No, it's Mom. Is everything okay? He's not panicked.
00:45:02Mom!
00:45:04Mom!
00:45:06Daniel!
00:45:07He just left us!
00:45:10Do you know where he is?
00:45:13We have to find him. We can check the hospital or the...
00:45:16Oh, honey. It's over. Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:22You knew?
00:45:23I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:45:34I'm hungry!
00:45:36Dad! Breakfast should be ready by now!
00:45:40Tag suit?
00:45:41I have something to tell you.
00:45:47Your dad...
00:45:50Your dad...
00:45:52He's left us.
00:45:54I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:57Yay! He's gone! He's gone!
00:45:59Why would you say that?
00:46:01He was so embarrassing! Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:46:04Mr. Eastwood?
00:46:05What did Preston say?
00:46:08He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets and raising a young man.
00:46:15He was so lame and boring. Now he's gone!
00:46:19Mr. Eastwood is way cooler! He can be my new dad!
00:46:23Jackson! You have a dad! And he's cared for you for seven years!
00:46:27Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:36Hello? Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:39Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant. I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:43I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:45Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood. Was that done with your approval?
00:46:50No, but I'm not surprised. Flag his name. I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:59Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again. Okay?
00:47:04He's not the man you think he is.
00:47:06Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:47:10And we need to find him at all costs.
00:47:12What kind of coward abandons his family, huh? It's despicable.
00:47:18I can't do this anymore. I'll cancel everything. The interviews, the red carpets. I don't want to be seen. I can't pretend. I just want him back.
00:47:31Honey, it's time to let him go. You don't love him anyway. And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:47:42What? How could you say something like that?
00:47:48Of course I love Daniel. He cares for me. He sees me. He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:47:57But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:48:00Daniel's my husband. And the father of my son.
00:48:05Yeah, some husband. Abandoning you without a moment's notice. Wanting nothing to do with this child just because I contraended?
00:48:11Contract? What contract?
00:48:19What are you talking about?
00:48:21Forget it. Forget it. Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:24When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day, you said that he was going on a trip. Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:33Please. I just want the truth.
00:48:36Mom.
00:48:38Fine. I will tell you the truth. But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:43I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina. But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:55When Preston left you, you were distraught. I had to save you.
00:49:00She's lost without you, Daniel. You've always been there for her. From film school to now. I've seen it. She needs you. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she's never alone again.
00:49:17It was all just some sort of obligation. How could you do this to me? I wanted to protect you.
00:49:31You wanted to control me. All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:49:37Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:38You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop. Daniel did what he was meant to do. He kept you together.
00:49:51Where? Where did he go? I know he told you where he went. Where is he?
00:49:56You can do better than him. You are Sabrina Donovan. Hollywood starlet. Believe me, it's for the best.
00:50:05No. He can't be gone. He can't.
00:50:08Yes. He is gone. And he is gone forever.
00:50:12He can't be. He can't be gone. He can't.
00:50:26He can't be gone forever.
00:50:27He can't be gone forever.
00:50:28He can't be gone forever.
00:50:29He can't be gone forever.
00:50:30He can't be gone forever.
00:50:31He can't be gone forever.
00:50:32He can't be gone forever.
00:50:33I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of Howl, The Tame Silver Fox.
00:50:38That's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:50:43Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:50Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:55What was going through your head tonight?
00:50:58Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed.
00:51:02Nobody told me how.
00:51:03Oh man, how comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:06I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:09Yeah.
00:51:10God, my career has been a long time in the making.
00:51:13And I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:15I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:17But London, London lit the fire under me.
00:51:21And I feel like I've found my voice.
00:51:23And it really is.
00:51:24Full steam ahead.
00:51:25Speaking of London, since you're an American rights director,
00:51:28will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:33Hollywood.
00:51:34Get out of the country.
00:51:36If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:51:41that will make your life a living hell.
00:51:43Daniel?
00:51:44He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:51:50Daniel is a true Auteur and a creative genius.
00:51:55And it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:51:57That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake,
00:51:59two time Golden Globe Award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Library.
00:52:03so I'll do it for him. Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a
00:52:10privilege to be his leading lady. That's not a light compliment coming from Emily
00:52:15Blake, two-time Golden Globe award-winning actress and celebrated alumni of the
00:52:20Royal Shakespeare Company. Well I've heard that your relationship wasn't just
00:52:24professional. We'll never tell.
00:52:28Oh my god, thanks for saving me. She was practically eye-fucking you. I know, jeez. This is so surreal. I mean I can't believe this is happening to me. I can. The moment I read your script I knew you
00:52:42were special. Daniel, enjoy this and get used to compliments. There's already Oscar buzz. Fuck. Finish me, I don't. I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:58You okay? You always do that when you're nervous.
00:53:02I think so. I'll have it.
00:53:05Well, the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:53:10Some of us just got a head start.
00:53:23I think our press is good press.
00:53:28Daniel becomes an award-winning director and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:37You can't do this to me!
00:53:40Sabrina.
00:53:41You don't need him!
00:53:42Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:44How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:47Move on?
00:53:48Please, honey. He is using her.
00:53:52Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm? He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:58How could you say that? I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career. He's proving that to the whole world. Don't you see it?
00:54:07Sabrina. Look at what you've got. A celebrated career. A mansion in the hills. An adorable kid. Well, when he's not whining. And don't forget about Preston. Your dream man. You have everything.
00:54:19I don't have him. Mom, I'm hungry. Go have the chef make something. No, I hate what she cooks. And I'm tired of chicken nuggets. Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:34Don't talk about him like that. He's your dad. No! Preston is my real dad now. Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet. It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:45When did he get so cruel? You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover. A doormat.
00:54:52Daniel's a doormat. Daniel's a doormat. Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Enough! You little shit!
00:55:01Enough! Just enough!
00:55:04Sabrina? What's gotten into you? Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:55:10Whoa. What's going on here? This room feels really tense.
00:55:15Mom just yelled at me for no reason. I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:55:19No! I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father. And if you keep talking like that, I'm gonna put you in a timeout.
00:55:25It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:55:32Hey, are you really gonna get mad at Jackson for what? Making fun of that fucking loser? Really?
00:55:38Loser? Yeah.
00:55:40You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston. And you've been mooching off from me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:48That's really, really low. Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year. Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:56:02To be a power couple, you both have to have power. Face it, Preston. You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up. And you're a fucking thief!
00:56:12Yeah, I know you're bankrupt. You've been stealing from me all year long. I could have you arrested, but I haven't. Because you know what? Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:22It's not like that, okay? Look, I was just merging things like couples do. I want to marry you. We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:32What's my birthday? Huh? What kind of flowers do I like? What's my favorite color? My favorite song? Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie? Oh, oh, wait. What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:45You don't give a shit about me. You don't love me. You don't even know me. This isn't a relationship. This is a publicity stunt. And you know what? I'm done! Get out!
00:56:58I don't want to ever see you again. We're over. We're over.
00:57:04Hey, babe, come on. Please. Please, I love you. Just think about it. Look at the press. What this will look like.
00:57:11If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot of weird. Get out. Now!
00:57:18Just give me your hand. Come on. No. I'm so alone, Daniel. Nobody sees the real people.
00:57:25I see you, Sabrina. I see all of you. And you're never going to be alone again.
00:57:31He truly knew me. He loved me. Every flaw. Every fear. Contract or not. He truly loved me.
00:57:45I saved you from social suicide. Saved me? You don't even know how ironic that is.
00:57:51Daniel saved me from the ledge. And he saved me from you. Security! Security!
00:58:01Come on. Just let's talk about this. No. Come on. Celeste! Do something!
00:58:07Sabrina! Come on, Sabrina!
00:58:10Was that really necessary? I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and people's sexiest man alive.
00:58:16Is that all you care about? The fame, the headlines, the brand deals? God! You're supposed to be my mother first, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:58:27Sabrina, you are being dramatic. Of course I care about you. I love you. Then prove it. If you ever want me in front of the camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:58:41You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee. I'm kind of in shock right now. In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced. I mean, you know this. You're a legend.
00:59:06I appreciate it, Daniel. All right. Let me cut to the chase. You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:59:12I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right. I got projects.
00:59:15Come on! You're built for billion dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets made in LA, not London. That's where you belong.
00:59:24To be honest, I already did LA. It didn't really end well.
00:59:28Let me guess. My girl?
00:59:30If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:59:35You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak. You can become a household name and I can get you there.
00:59:42You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:59:44Three picture deal. 200 million dollar budget each. Creative control and final cut approval.
00:59:49I don't know what to say.
00:59:50Just say yes. You have my number. Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:55Just remember, Daniel. You can't run away from the past. You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
01:00:05Hey, it's been a while. Can we talk?
01:00:16Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
01:00:20Of course. It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
01:00:26Is this a personal story? Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
01:00:31Oh, she knows who she is. I'll leave it at that.
01:00:37I'll leave it at that.
01:00:38You arrogant little shit. I told you if you ever sat foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
01:00:48It's less Donovan. I need a favor. I need you to track down Daniel Johnson to find out where he'll be around eight o'clock tonight.
01:00:59Thank you. It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:01:06Mom, what are you doing?
01:01:11Did you just break my TV?
01:01:13Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:01:16You know how I'm supposed to do that?
01:01:18You've been so kind though. It's called You Drive Me Crazy.
01:01:23He's back. Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:29Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:01:32I'm not a fragile little girl anymore. I need to get on that movie.
01:01:37Absolutely not. You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:01:40If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:01:43Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:01:46He still loves me. He has to. I just need to talk to him.
01:01:54Let him go.
01:01:57Mom.
01:01:59Honey, I...
01:02:02You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:02:05I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:02:09I love you. I love you too.
01:02:16This is, um, it's another movie deal. I'll tell you about it after.
01:02:38Did you get his location?
01:02:40The Oaks. 8pm.
01:02:43After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:02:48He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:59She's not protecting me.
01:03:01She's protecting her business.
01:03:03And I'm just a pawn.
01:03:05But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:03:10So nice having you back.
01:03:12And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:03:14Yeah, it's been a rough couple of years, hasn't it?
01:03:16A couple?
01:03:18Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people.
01:03:22If you can even call them that.
01:03:23But you're healthy now.
01:03:24And I'm at the top of my career.
01:03:26I mean, yeah, there was a time that I love Sabrina.
01:03:29But I really thought I could make it work.
01:03:31The marriage, the kids.
01:03:33I mean, we really tried.
01:03:35I thought I could make it go for it.
01:03:37But, um, it's over.
01:03:40It's over.
01:03:41I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks Prestonisa would come off her.
01:03:45Oh, you haven't heard?
01:03:57She dumped him.
01:03:58It was all over People magazine.
01:04:00She ended it when his star faded.
01:04:04Oh my gosh, it was.
01:04:11Daniel!
01:04:12Stop!
01:04:23Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:04:25I'm here to help you.
01:04:26Sabrina, you're making a scene.
01:04:29Let's go home.
01:04:30Sabrina?
01:04:31How could you?
01:04:32What?
01:04:33I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
01:04:37I begged and pleaded.
01:04:38Stop lying!
01:04:39I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:04:43And I'll bet you called the paparazzi too to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:04:49My God.
01:04:50You're disgusting.
01:04:51I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:04:53Not anymore.
01:04:54Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:04:59I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:05:03I'm your mother.
01:05:05I only want what's best for you.
01:05:08What's best for me?
01:05:11You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:05:16That all ends today.
01:05:21You're fired.
01:05:23Fired.
01:05:25No.
01:05:28No.
01:05:29You can't do this to me.
01:05:36Please.
01:05:37Please, sweetie.
01:05:38I have dedicated my life to you.
01:05:39You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:05:45I was just who you used to get to it.
01:05:47You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:05:50There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:05:53I made you.
01:05:54You'd be nothing without me.
01:05:59I think she'll do just fine.
01:06:08We're done here, Mom.
01:06:10If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:06:17Without another word.
01:06:23I have something to say.
01:06:33I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:36I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:06:39I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:06:44I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:06:50I apologize to your father.
01:06:55Do I have to?
01:06:57Who raised you?
01:06:59Cared for you?
01:07:02Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:07:05Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:07:09He did.
01:07:11He loved you.
01:07:13But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:07:14I was wrong.
01:07:15Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:07:21And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:07:25I'm sorry, Dad.
01:07:30It's gonna be okay, son.
01:07:32I love you.
01:07:34Okay.
01:07:35Come on Jackson, let's go.
01:07:39Yeah.
01:07:43I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:07:45For everything.
01:07:46For everything.
01:07:56I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:59You're thinking of going back to them.
01:08:03I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:08:05They hurt you, Daniel.
01:08:08They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:08:15People can change.
01:08:18But that doesn't change the past.
01:08:20And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:08:31Daniel!
01:08:33Daniel!
01:08:35Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:08:41Yes.
01:08:42I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:08:47But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:08:51I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:09:01Way to go, John!
01:09:16Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:09:23We'll keep in touch.
01:09:31What do we have today?

01:09:33Sure.
01:09:34Jesus.
01:09:35Hey, boy!
01:09:36How are we looking?
01:09:38Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:09:42I mean, this film lives or dies by a female lead.
01:09:45Alright, here's Theo.
01:09:46The studio's on my ass looking to lock and delete today.
