00:08:29Well, uh, um, I've been out of work.

00:09:12I'm just half sitting.
00:09:13Oh.
00:09:15Uh, make yourself comfortable and I'll fix something to eat.

00:09:35Oh!
00:09:42Um...
00:09:45So, the fridge is empty.
00:09:52Yeah.
00:09:54Do you want pizza?
00:09:58Yeah.
00:09:58Yeah.
00:09:59Pizza works.
00:10:00All right.
00:10:03Um...
00:10:03I'll go make an order.
00:10:09All right.
00:10:13Oh, you're...
00:10:14Hey, Peter, run a check on this girl.
00:10:29Oh, my God.
00:10:37Mike.
00:10:38What?
00:10:38Ava has just told me that Daniel has divorced her.
00:10:41What the?
00:10:44I told you that bastard Daniel was no good for her.
00:10:47I swear, I swear, I swear, if he heard my Ava, that's it.
00:10:53Him and his company are dead.
00:10:56Hear me?
00:10:57They're dead.
00:10:57Hey.
00:11:06Oh, sure.
00:11:07No.
00:11:07What?
00:11:10I don't know.
00:11:11I don't know.
00:11:12It's Thats it.
00:11:13So scary.
00:11:14Hey, are you okay?
00:11:17Um, it's my stomach.
00:11:20Here, let's get you down.
00:11:44You know, you're the first person who's taking care of me like this.
00:11:52Other than my parents.
00:11:55Do you think you ate something bad?
00:12:00It's just an allergy.
00:12:02I probably should have checked if the pizza had any soy before eating like half of it.
00:12:08But I'll be fine after some rest.
00:12:11Okay.
00:12:14What are you doing?
00:12:28What are you doing?
00:12:30Um, you said you needed some rest.
00:12:32I'm taking you to bed.
00:12:34It's okay, I can walk by myself.
00:12:37No, you can't.
00:12:44I don't know.
00:12:45I don't know.
00:12:47Hello.
00:12:48Hi.
00:12:50Oh, I didn't want to walk.
00:12:54Nice!
00:13:01Ah!
00:13:07Cheese!
00:13:12Oh, no.
00:13:42Uh, you're awake?
00:13:50Yeah, I just got up.
00:13:54Um, do you have an apron?
00:13:58Or you'll also get hot.
00:14:02Of course.
00:14:04Just let me help you.
00:14:12Oh God, Eva!
00:14:40What are you doing?
00:14:42Uh, who are they?
00:14:49I'm her!
00:14:50They are my best friend's parents.
00:14:53They've come to see if the house needs any repairs.
00:14:55Right?
00:14:56And this is?
00:15:00He's, um, um...
00:15:06Nice to meet you.
00:15:09I'm, uh, Eva's fiance.
00:15:11What?
00:15:16Yeah, um, he's my fiance.
00:15:20William.
00:15:21Eva, what the hell is going on?
00:15:28Mom, look, I don't even know where to start.
00:15:44Okay, let's just say I got myself a husband.
00:15:49You picked up a husband like you pick up a stray dog.
00:15:53Pretty much.
00:15:54Honestly, it's almost like the same thing.
00:15:56Oh, whatever.
00:15:57All right, well, that is not the issue.
00:15:59The real issue is that your father has called the shots in three hours.
00:16:05Daniel, and that shameless bitch's relatives won't even exist.
00:16:09What?
00:16:09No, we're not doing that.
00:16:10Why not?
00:16:11Anyone that harms my girl deserves to rot in hell.
00:16:15Your dad and I will tear them apart and feed them to the wolves.
00:16:19Okay, Mom, you just let me handle my enemies, okay?
00:16:22Tonight at the director's dinner, I will make the meat dirt in front of everyone.
00:16:25And trust me, we're not going to let him get away with it.
00:16:34So, William, which family are you from?
00:16:42I, uh, I am...
00:16:49Which family are you from?
00:16:52I, uh...
00:16:56I am...
00:16:59Okay, Dad, he might not have some fancy pedigree,
00:17:03but he's a real go-getter.
00:17:06A rising star in the performing arts.
00:17:11A rising star?
00:17:15Ava, how can you still fall for the lies of these bottom-feeder wannabes?
00:17:21Haven't you had enough of their pathetic excuses?
00:17:24You didn't listen to us before.
00:17:26And now look where you are.
00:17:27Okay, that's enough.
00:17:28We gotta get going.
00:17:29Let's go.
00:17:30That's okay.
00:17:31Bye.
00:17:39I'm sorry.
00:17:44I know those words hurt.
00:17:45It's fine.
00:17:47You know, the way you treat your best friend's parents,
00:17:51it's like you see them as your own.
00:17:54Uh, my best friend's family owe us, so...
00:17:58They owe you?
00:18:00Why, why do they owe you?
00:18:02Well, when my friend's family were broke,
00:18:05my parents gave them $10,000.
00:18:07After that, they made it big,
00:18:11so our families kind of have, like, this special bond.
00:18:15Hmm.
00:18:16Big news.
00:18:24The eminent and elusive Oscar-winning director,
00:18:27known as Director V,
00:18:28winner of last year's Palme d'Or,
00:18:30Golden Lion,
00:18:31and Golden Bear,
00:18:32is set to make a major public appearance this week
00:18:34and reveal their next film project.
00:18:37Hey, I've got to go run an errand,
00:18:46so I'll, uh, be back later.
00:18:48Oh, I'm heading out, too.
00:18:49You on a ride?
00:18:50No, I'm going pretty far,
00:18:51but I'll, uh, see you tonight.
00:19:05This invitation must have fell.
00:19:07Glad I spotted it in time.
00:19:19Ava?
00:19:21Hey.
00:19:22What are you doing here?
00:19:23I, um,
00:19:25I'm meeting a producer
00:19:26for a lunch at the hotel.
00:19:28Oh.
00:19:29What are you doing here?
00:19:30Funny coincidence.
00:19:31A friend recommended me a job here.
00:19:33Oh, that's great.
00:19:35For a moment,
00:19:36I thought you were here
00:19:36for the director's dinner.
00:19:37Oh, God, no.
00:19:38I mean, I'm just a regular housewife.
00:19:40I could never be in the film industry.
00:19:43I mean, I kind of thought you were going.
00:19:46I'd love to,
00:19:47but right now,
00:19:48no fame,
00:19:49no invite.
00:19:50Oh.
00:19:50I mean, don't worry.
00:19:51You'll get there soon enough.
00:19:53You can come with me.
00:19:56I'll see you tonight.
00:19:57Tonight, then.
00:19:58I'll see you tonight.
00:19:59Great.
00:20:05Hmm.
00:20:13Please go ahead, sir.
00:20:18Please go ahead, man.
00:20:19Ah, shit.
00:20:27Sorry, I think I lost my invitation.
00:20:28Um, can you just make an exception?
00:20:30You lost it?
00:20:31Or you never had one?
00:20:32You seriously think I'm trying to sneak in?
00:20:34Isn't that exactly what you're doing?
00:20:36I've seen hundreds of people like you today.
00:20:38Ava?
00:20:39Where are you?
00:20:40You're stalking us?
00:20:43Take your hands
00:20:44and leave us alone.
00:20:45It's like wherever we are,
00:20:47you're just there,
00:20:48stalking us.
00:20:57Weird.
00:20:58Why do I have two?
00:21:02Ava?
00:21:06It's like wherever we are,
00:21:07you're just there,
00:21:08stalking us.
00:21:09You guys really think that much of yourselves?
00:21:12What?
00:21:12You really think they're just going to let
00:21:14some housewife
00:21:15into V's banquet?
00:21:17Maybe you should get over yourself.
00:21:21Daniel dropped a cool
00:21:22one million to get me in.
00:21:25He wouldn't spend a dime
00:21:26on someone like you.
00:21:27Babe, it's just a million.
00:21:30Like, soon
00:21:31we'll be raking in the big bucks.
00:21:34Billions.
00:21:34Oh, I love the way you say that.
00:21:37Daniel, do share your brand of pillow.
00:21:39Your dreams are real sweet.

00:22:51Mm-hmm.
00:22:52Mm-hmm.
00:22:52Mm-hmm.
00:22:53Mm-hmm.
00:22:54Mm-hmm.
00:22:54Mm-hmm.

00:23:03She's not here.
00:23:05Yes, I guess not.
00:23:09Of course.
00:23:10Why would Ava have a newbie?
00:23:14Stupid.
00:23:16Ladies and gentlemen,
00:23:19next up,
00:23:20the world-renowned,
00:23:21mysterious,
00:23:23director V graces the stage.
00:23:25Next up,
00:23:37the world-renowned,
00:23:39mysterious,
00:23:40director V graces the stage.
00:23:47V,
00:23:48she feels so familiar,
00:23:50almost like Ava.
00:23:51Finally we get to see V in person.
00:23:54I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:23:57It's been three years in her last project.
00:24:00Can't wait to see her next one.
00:24:02This V,
00:24:04I figure it's,
00:24:05it's almost like Ava's.
00:24:07No way.
00:24:08Ava's low-class looks could never compare to V.
00:24:11Yeah,
00:24:12you're right.
00:24:13I married her for three years.
00:24:14I know her inside
00:24:16and out.
00:24:19She can never compare to V.
00:24:22Idiot.
00:24:23Time to show you how blind you really are.
00:24:28It's too much of a coincidence.
00:24:30I need to check this out.
00:24:36Oh my god,
00:24:37V.
00:24:37Baby,
00:24:38is V walking towards me?
00:24:39Is she not to choose me?
00:24:40Of course.
00:24:41I've always said you're my diamond.
00:24:43You're going to get your big break.
00:24:45My investment's going to pay off.
00:24:47Because, because.

00:25:01is V okay?
00:25:02Dammit!
00:25:02Who made these damn stairs?
00:25:04This is going to ruin our chances.
00:25:08Are you okay?
00:25:09William?
00:25:10No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:10I can't let him know who I am.
00:25:11I am.
00:25:14No, hey, no, wait, wait.
00:25:15No, oh.
00:25:17It's okay.
00:25:18It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
00:25:24I've seen this bracelet before.
00:25:29I'll be fine after some rest.
00:25:35Ava?
00:25:35Could V really be Ava?
00:25:46Excuse me, Mrs. Rall?
00:25:48That's me.
00:25:49Who are you?
00:25:50Director V wants you to audition
00:25:52as a male actor in room 301.
00:25:56Oh my god.
00:25:57V wants me to audition.
00:25:59This is going to be my big break.
00:26:01I'm on my way.
00:26:02Everything set?
00:26:15Everything is going to plan.
00:26:23James?
00:26:24Whoa, whoa, look who it is.
00:26:27Oh, babe, I have missed you since we broke up.
00:26:30What the hell are you doing here?
00:26:37What the hell are you doing here?
00:26:39Well, I...
00:26:39Hmm, hmm.
00:26:40The audition for Director V starts now.
00:26:53The scene is called The Affair.
00:26:55You must play a couple having a secret meeting
00:26:58while each has their own family.
00:27:00Cameras are set up.
00:27:02Start whenever you're ready.
00:27:04All right, let's do this.
00:27:07As you wish.
00:27:08Honey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
00:27:20I had to wait forever for my husband
00:27:22to fall asleep so I could come.
00:27:24I hope you weren't waiting too long.
00:27:30I hope you weren't waiting too long.
00:27:32I hope you weren't waiting too long.
00:27:32The stream is officially live.
00:27:39Let's add another play to the game.
00:27:41Amp up the drama.
00:27:46Oh, this bitch won't leave me alone.
00:27:50This shit is about to get good.
00:27:51What the fuck?
00:28:01Wait, that's Sophia's ex.
00:28:03James.
00:28:03What the fuck are they doing back together?
00:28:08You don't care if your husband finds out.
00:28:11Don't talk about him.
00:28:12Okay, we have to break up like that.
00:28:14Um, you're the only one.
00:28:16You bitch!
00:28:24You bitch!
00:28:26Fuck.
00:28:26Daniel.
00:28:27No, no, it's not.
00:28:28No, Daniel, stop!
00:28:29Shut the hell up!
00:28:30It's a misunderstanding, okay?
00:28:32It's just an audition.
00:28:33You expect me to believe that you're auditioning,
00:28:35you're acting while you're naked in this room,
00:28:38kissing your ex?
00:28:39Please, it's just for V, okay?
00:28:40She asked me to audition.
00:28:42James, he's an actor too.
00:28:43He's helping with the audition.
00:28:44Why are you stripping for an audition?
00:28:47What's in the script?
00:28:49You asshole, come on!
00:28:51It's an affair, okay?
00:28:52We're just acting for an audition.
00:28:54It's for the audition.
00:28:56What?
00:28:57You really think you're going to intimidate me?
00:28:59I'm doing this for your company.
00:29:01I'm doing this for V.
00:29:02Come on!
00:29:03Save it, all right?
00:29:05If V wanted you here, where is she?
00:29:08I mean, with all your talent,
00:29:09you think she wouldn't notice you by now?
00:29:12What a melodramatic twist within a twist.
00:29:16Is it new V project?
00:29:17Shut the fuck up!
00:29:18You know that if it wasn't for me,
00:29:20you're coming for me underground!
00:29:22Oh, now the truth is coming out, isn't it?
00:29:25You thought you could sleep with your ex
00:29:27without me finding out.
00:29:29Oh, and you're so perfect!
00:29:31You're cheating on your wife with me!
00:29:33You asshole!
00:29:34What the fuck?
00:29:41What the fuck?
00:29:51Yeah, you want to get it?
00:29:52This doesn't look like acting.
00:29:54Yeah.
00:29:55This feels way too real.
00:29:57Wait a minute, isn't that Ava's new husband?
00:30:00And his new girlfriend?
00:30:02What the fuck?
00:30:03Yeah, you want again?
00:30:24Geez, this is a next-level violence, Aunt.
00:30:27Yeah, maybe we're seeing V's new direction?
00:30:30Wait a second.
00:30:31This is clearly revenge.
00:30:33The live stream of Ava's ex and his mistress.
00:30:36Could it be Ava's actually V?
00:30:43Wait!
00:30:44Stop!
00:30:45Stop!
00:30:46I was paid to be here!
00:30:47To play along!
00:30:49I don't think V has anything to do with this.
00:30:51What?
00:30:52It's blowing up on TikTok.
00:30:55Well, that's a nice surprise.
00:30:59We've been played.
00:31:00Who's behind this?
00:31:00Who's posting this online?
00:31:02Ava?
00:31:05You...
00:31:05You set me off!
00:31:07Hey, back off.
00:31:08You posted this?
00:31:10You humiliated us?
00:31:11Humiliated?
00:31:12Daniel, did you ever care?
00:31:14Because I didn't see any of that in the video.
00:31:15Hey, wasn't this your big break into the film industry?
00:31:18Now the whole world knows you.
00:31:20Guess you're famous, huh?
00:31:21You were gonna pay for this!
00:31:23Fuck!
00:31:24Run!
00:31:25Security!
00:31:25They're fighting!
00:31:26Daniel!
00:31:27Oh!
00:31:28Oh!
00:31:29Three years of marriage and I've never felt so protected.
00:31:45Ladies and gentlemen, due to an emergency, V will be unable to meet if the event is over.
00:31:52No!
00:31:53Please stay tuned for more information.
00:31:55Ticket money down the drain!
00:31:57That was gonna be my big break!
00:31:59I was just hoping for a signed picture.
00:32:02I just wanna see what's amazing the director look like.
00:32:06Hey, hey, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, wait, wait.
00:32:09What is up with that video online?
00:32:11What video?
00:32:12The video of your ex and that woman.
00:32:15Why is it posted from V's account?
00:32:16Why is V trying to take them down?
00:32:18Are you...
00:32:18Okay, okay.
00:32:21Look, that's because I'm...
00:32:27I'm sorry.
00:32:29Yeah?
00:32:30Sir, we've uncovered Ava's real identity.
00:32:35We dug into it.
00:32:37Turns out Miss Ava is just a regular housewife.
00:32:40Got it.
00:32:40I'm sorry.
00:32:44I overreacted.
00:32:46I guess with us about to marry, I just realized how little I really know about you.
00:32:51And it just scared me a little bit.
00:32:54About to marry?
00:32:56We're just in a contract marriage, aren't we?
00:32:58Yeah, I mean, but you could say all marriage is a contract.
00:33:02And I thought we were so much more.
00:33:06You mean a lot to me, Ava.
00:33:08And I thought you could feel it, too.
00:33:11I never got to thank you for rescuing me last night.
00:33:14If you hadn't stood up to Daniel, I might be in the hospital right now.
00:33:18I mean, in such a short time, you've given me care and protection that I never had in my marriage.
00:33:27If anyone hurts my fiancé, I'll make them regret it.
00:33:34Sorry to interrupt you, sir.
00:33:38Sorry to interrupt you, sir.
00:33:40But a master wants to see you.
00:33:42Hey, wait, who are you?
00:33:44I should persuade Ava to cooperate.
00:33:47My grandfather doesn't play around.
00:33:49Ava?
00:33:50There's a lot I need to explain, but I can't do it right now.
00:33:54Can you trust me?
00:33:57I'll just play along.
00:34:01Okay.
00:34:02Okay.
00:34:09William, how much do you owe?
00:34:11I hear William is your man now.
00:34:14What?
00:34:18Oh.
00:34:20Yeah.
00:34:22Sir, why am I the only one allowed in?
00:34:24Why can't William come?
00:34:25Because to me, he's just a fool.
00:34:28How dare you say that about him?
00:34:30He owes you money, right?
00:34:32What if I said yes?
00:34:33How much?
00:34:34Tell me and I'll pay it off for him.
00:34:35Pay it off?
00:34:36It's no small amount.
00:34:38How much?
00:34:39Well, one million.
00:34:44One million.
00:34:46That's it.
00:34:47We're just a million.
00:34:48You don't know the full picture.
00:34:50One million is just the interest.
00:34:53The principal sum is ten million.
00:34:56Ten million?
00:34:58What did he borrow that kind of money for?
00:34:59I don't care.
00:35:01I just want to know if you can pay it off.
00:35:04I can.
00:35:05You're a liar.
00:35:10Not only are you broke, but you're a liar.
00:35:15You're a divorced woman.
00:35:17You've been divorced for three years.
00:35:19You've been waiting tables.
00:35:22What savings could you possibly have accumulated?
00:35:24How did you know I was divorced?
00:35:27Did you investigate me?
00:35:29Yes, I did.
00:35:31In our line of work, information is everything.
00:35:34No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:35:43Did you investigate me?
00:35:45Yes, I did.
00:35:46In our line of work, information is everything.
00:35:49No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:35:55Try digging a little deeper.
00:35:57My cheating ex is a CEO of a listed company.
00:36:01And the divorce settlement?
00:36:03It's hefty.
00:36:06What?
00:36:08You've paid 11 million dollars for William?
00:36:11Why did you pay such a huge amount for that scumbag?
00:36:14Maybe to you, he's just a broke jerk.
00:36:16When I needed him, he was there.
00:36:17Money's one thing, but William?
00:36:21He's worth more than all of it.
00:36:28Jeez.
00:36:29It's as if destiny is pulling strings.
00:36:33How did William meet someone this perfect?
00:36:37Her ex must be a total jerk.
00:36:42Pull every single penny out of Daniel Roth's investments.
00:36:46Now.
00:37:00Ava, are you okay?
00:37:01I'm fine.
00:37:03Ian.
00:37:06What?
00:37:06Why did Katzenberg pull out?
00:37:14We've been working with him for years.
00:37:16I don't know.
00:37:17Could it be because of the live stream video?
00:37:18I mean, it has to be.
00:37:20This is all on Ava.
00:37:23I...
00:37:23I'm gonna kill her.
00:37:25I swear.
00:37:26I hope you do.
00:37:27I mean, with Katzenberg gone, we're missing an 80% funding gap.
00:37:33We may as well file for bankruptcy.
00:37:35Oh, Daniel, please, calm down.
00:37:38I've just gotten word that Fi's hosting auditions for her new film tomorrow.
00:37:42So, if I can get her approval...
00:37:45Well, then you, as the face of our company, you'll skyrocket the stock price.
00:37:53Katzenberg will be begging for shares.
00:37:56Oh, you genius!
00:37:57Sam?
00:38:05Miss, the Katzen call is set for tomorrow.
00:38:08I just heard.
00:38:09Katzenberg pulled all investments from Daniel's company.
00:38:12They'll be bankrupt by the month's end.
00:38:14Even so, I've got one last strike for this idiot.
00:38:18What do you mean?
00:38:20Have Cameron contact Sophia.
00:38:22Let her know she can buy a role in my new film.
00:38:25For a high price.
00:38:27Hey, William, what's up?
00:38:37I, uh...
00:38:39I have an audition for V's movie tomorrow.
00:38:41Oh.
00:38:42Well, that's great.
00:38:44Yeah, um...
00:38:45Look, I'm just too nervous.
00:38:47I can't get into any of the emotional scenes.
00:38:50Do you like baking?
00:38:51Do you like baking?
00:38:57Oh, no.
00:39:05Oh.
00:39:05Oh!
00:39:24Sorry I'm late. I'm Cameron, the producer of E's Movie.
00:39:28So once I pay, Sophia's got the role, right?
00:39:33Of course.
00:39:35This is perfect.
00:39:46What's going on?
00:39:47Uh, nothing. You want more cake?
00:39:50Yeah.
00:39:56Okay, I think we might have had like a little bit too much.
00:39:59No, you're not even tipsy. And I'm fine.
00:40:03Alright, then maybe we should drink some more then.
00:40:05Yeah, sure thing.
00:40:06Yeah, sure thing.
00:40:16Can I kiss you?
00:40:33You should probably take that.
00:40:35Oh.
00:40:36Oh.
00:40:38Why do you have a lot of times? I was just starting to feel it.
00:40:43Hmm.
00:40:44Well, look at you back in character.
00:40:46I think my job here is done.
00:40:49Time to get some sleep and get the showers.
00:41:03Wow, Ava. You're stunning.
00:41:05No one would believe that director V and the richest heiress in town are actually the same person.
00:41:11Hmm.
00:41:12Well, you know I never cared for the public perception, but God, I can't wait to see Daniel and Sophia's faces when they find out the truth.
00:41:18Hello?
00:41:25Hello?
00:41:27Ava, can you do me a favor?
00:41:30What's wrong? Has something happened?
00:41:32No, I'm just a little worried about the emotional scenes today.
00:41:37Could you be my partner and help me run through it?
00:41:40Could you be my partner?
00:41:51All right. Yeah, no, I mean, of course, I'll go with you.
00:41:56Ava, thank you.
00:41:58I'll send you the location for casting.
00:42:01Yeah, okay. Bye.
00:42:06Ava, where are you going?
00:42:08If you leave, who will run the casting?
00:42:11Who will choose the actors?
00:42:16You'll handle it.
00:42:17Me?
00:42:32Fuck! Ava!
00:42:34What are they doing here?
00:42:35First she ruins my company, now she wants to ruin the audition.
00:42:39All right, let's get this casting underway.
00:42:50I can't love you anymore.
00:42:52Please, please, let me go.
00:42:56Let us bury our love in the past.
00:42:58And have a look back.
00:43:03Cut.
00:43:05Next.
00:43:07What's going on?
00:43:08I didn't finish my lines.
00:43:10That's enough.
00:43:11He gave me zero emotion. I put my heart into that scene.
00:43:14He gave me nothing!
00:43:15If you have a complaint, feel free to file a complaint form.
00:43:19But for now, please leave the audition area.
00:43:26Her acting.
00:43:29Makes me want to puke.
00:43:32Next.
00:43:34That's our turn.
00:43:36Hey.
00:43:37You got this.
00:43:41Whoa!
00:43:42All right.
00:43:43This woman is not an actress.
00:43:45She has no right to audition.
00:43:50What's going on here?
00:43:51It's simple.
00:43:52I brought my fiancé to audition.
00:43:55It'll help me give a better performance.
00:43:58This is V's casting.
00:43:59Come on.
00:44:00Only pros allowed.
00:44:01You just gonna let some untrained housewife sneak her way in?
00:44:05Once this leaks, V's reputation will be ruined.
00:44:08And you'll be fired.
00:44:09Sofia, you are not V.
00:44:11How could you know what she cares about?
00:44:14What does it matter if she's a pro?
00:44:18Training doesn't guarantee impact.
00:44:21You can still touch hearts as long as you're feeling and in the role.
00:44:28That's what a true actor does.
00:44:31All right.
00:44:39You're up.
00:44:44You know, you say you love me, but...
00:44:47I mean, you don't even know who I am.
00:44:50Can you really love someone you barely know?
00:44:52Who says that I can't?
00:44:54I can see your strength.
00:44:57Your kindness and the vulnerability beneath it.
00:45:01I mean, I feel your pain and see your scars.
00:45:04I know we've only known each other a short time, but I feel like I see you better than I see myself.
00:45:10And I love you.
00:45:13Before you go, can you kiss me once more?
00:45:15Can you kiss me once more?
00:45:16Can you kiss me once more?
00:45:30Bitch really knows how to fake it.
00:45:32Now for the official casting results.
00:45:38It's a good thing we've got a backup plan.
00:45:41It's a good thing we've got a backup plan.
00:45:43Who cares about acting anyway?
00:45:44Yeah.
00:45:45I mean, acting is nothing really.
00:45:46Money is how you get the role.
00:45:47Eto'o.
00:45:48Effie.
00:45:49Kevin.
00:45:50William.
00:45:51Oh my God, what?
00:45:52That's incredible.
00:45:53William, you're amazing.
00:45:54Why am I not on this list?
00:45:55They're still going.
00:45:56Okay.
00:45:57It's okay.
00:45:58Uh, last Ava.
00:45:59What?
00:46:00No way.
00:46:01Ava, you got in as well.
00:46:02Yeah.
00:46:03This isn't fair.
00:46:04The list has been también.
00:46:05There is cheating going on in this casting.
00:46:07Where's your proof?
00:46:08Without anything bad.
00:46:10I don't even want to do that.
00:46:11No, no, no, no.
00:46:12O-oh, no.
00:46:13Okay.
00:46:14No, no, no.
00:46:15No, no, no.
00:46:16I don't have to do that.
00:46:17I don't have to do that.
00:46:18I don't have to do that.
00:46:19The character is not canon.
00:46:26To me, isn't the character.
00:46:27Everyone's not a leading person.
00:46:28I don't even want to know the character.
00:46:29I don't even want to make a difference.
00:46:31Do you mind?

01:00:22Is it true that the movie was based on real events?
01:00:25Miss V, over here.
01:00:27V, you are looking stunning tonight as always.
01:00:33The question everybody's been wondering,
01:00:36is V alone at this big premiere?
01:00:39Well, I was supposed to be accompanied by a very special person tonight.
01:00:43And where is that special someone?
01:00:46He...
01:00:48And where is that special someone?

01:00:55He...
01:01:09Congratulations, Ava.
01:01:11Or should I say V.
01:01:12It's quite the turnout tonight.
01:01:15It'll be no surprise that your new film is another hit.
01:01:18So I thought I'd surprise you in a different way.
01:01:21Ava, since we've met, we've been through so much together.
01:01:30You've been flirting with death.
01:01:32On the day of your movie premiere,
01:01:34and on your very special day,
01:01:36I have to ask...
01:01:41Will you marry me?
01:01:43William.
01:01:45No.
01:01:55You have to marry me.
