00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the Best Original Screenplay at the Rising Stars Movie Awards.
00:17You did it.
00:19Three years ago, I was the most sought after screenwriter.
00:23Three years later, I fell in love with Drake,
00:28giving my identity a secret for the sake of his pride.
00:32I thought we were happy until...
00:38Hi.
00:45Where the hell have you been?
00:47I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday,
00:50and instead of helping us, he just disappeared.
00:53What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?
00:56You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
01:00is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
01:03Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?
01:07What?
01:08A maid?
01:09I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.
01:13Well, I think Drake's idea is great, and it could be really good for us.
01:17But the risk is way too high.
01:22Dad.
01:23Please.
01:26Okay.
01:27And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm a person.
01:35Think about it, Dorothy.
01:36Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
01:39How often does he actually come home?
01:41He doesn't even want to look at you.
01:44Let alone sleep with you.
01:46That's enough, Ellie.
01:47We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.
01:49I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.
01:52Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake
01:55instead of being my late brother's widow.
01:58Ellie!
01:59Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.
02:01Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.
02:08It's the perfect time.
02:12Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
02:14Dorothy just pushed Stephanie into the pool!
02:16What?
02:23Quick, save Stephanie!
02:24She's carrying Nick's baby!
02:29Quick, get in there!
02:31He chose Stephanie over me.
02:36My baby! My baby is gone!
02:39Why would you do this to me?
02:41Help! Help!
02:43He chose Stephanie over me.
02:48My baby! My baby is gone!
02:52Why would you do this to me?
02:55How dare you!
02:57You push Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby.
03:00Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?
03:03I didn't do it!
03:04I know you don't want me here!
03:06I told you whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past!
03:09You can hate me however you want to, but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?
03:14He didn't do it! You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie!
03:16Just apologize to Stephanie!
03:18Just apologize to Stephanie!
03:20I'm not going to apologize for something I didn't do!
03:23Apologize to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you!
03:25I will divorce you!
03:32Divorce?
03:34If you apologize right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance!
03:38It's been three years, Drake. I gave up everything to be your wife.
03:48I've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.
03:51I already have a life.
03:53And right now I just want to focus on being on my marriage of Drake.
03:56I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.
04:03The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
04:08Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
04:11He doesn't even want to look at you!
04:15Fine!
04:17Let's get a divorce!
04:26There's nothing left in my heart. Drake's nothing without me.
04:32My ring!
04:34My ring is gone!
04:36Well, you must have taken it.
04:38Why would I take her ring?
04:40Look how quickly you packed your suitcase.
04:42You're probably seeing someone else.
04:44Dorothy.
04:46Yes?
04:48We were married for three years. Were you seeing someone else?
04:50Of course she was.
04:51Probably been cheating on you for a really long time.
04:54Couldn't wait for the divorce.
04:56So what if I was, huh?
04:58And what about you? Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?
05:02What gives you the right to talk about me?
05:04I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.
05:08Yeah.
05:09But you actually seeing someone else? Who is he?
05:11Big talk!
05:13Don't bring me down to your level.
05:15I'm not like you.
05:17Since your sister-in-law lost her ring,
05:22why don't you take...
05:26this one?
05:29This one.
05:32You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?
05:39Bye.
05:40And so I left.
05:47This is ridiculous!
05:52We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.
05:56I let him marry my daughter and even invested in his business.
06:01How dare that Drake do this to my daughter!
06:05Look, it's actually good from Dad.
06:09Now we know who he really is and he has no idea who I am.
06:12Still, you're my daughter. I can't let him do this to you.
06:15If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.
06:20We're gonna pull our investment immediately.
06:22Yes. It's time to cut him off.
06:24He doesn't deserve you.
06:26I'm over Drake.
06:28If we withdraw the plans now,
06:31it's going to hurt the family business.
06:33He's not worth it.
06:35Honey.
06:36Why don't you just take a vacation?
06:40Or just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself?
06:44Yeah.
06:47No.
06:51I've wasted too much time with Drake over the three years.
06:55You know, now I want to focus on something that actually matters.
07:00You know, Christopher has been saying
07:02that many people want to buy the movie rights to lie is gay.
07:06Universal.
07:07Paramount.
07:08Every major studio wants this.
07:13Liar's Game.
07:14Your story on the big screen.
07:16If you're in, I'd be happy to be the one headlining you.
07:19Oh.
07:20So that's why they're making it.
07:21Because of you.
07:22I'm sorry, Christopher Santoro.
07:25See?
07:26They're not funding the film.
07:28They're funding you.
07:29Wrong.
07:31They're funding the story.
07:32It's more than good.
07:34It's phenomenal.
07:36Christopher is right.
07:38I'm taking my life back.
07:44I'm going to adapt to myself.
07:46You are?
07:48Yes.
07:49I will.
07:51Good for you.
07:52I won't tell anyone to ask you.
07:53I won't tell anyone to ask you.
08:04Congratulations to Aria Wong for winning the best director.
08:07This is my close friend from college.
08:08Aria.
08:09I need your help.
08:10I want to adapt the Liar's Game myself.
08:11And I want you to direct it.
08:12Of course.
08:13All right.
08:14Okay.
08:15There's just one thing.
08:16I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:18I don't want anyone to know.
08:20Especially not the team.
08:21SQ.
08:22Are you sure?
08:23But why keep it a secret?
08:24I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:27Got it.
08:28Your secret's safe with me.
08:29Hey.
08:30Oh my god.
08:31Jeff.
08:32It's a bit weird.
08:33Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.
08:34Really?
08:35No.
08:36No, especially not the team.
08:37SQ.
08:38Are you sure?
08:39But why keep it a secret?
08:40I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:42Got it.
08:43Your secret's safe with me.
08:44Oh my god.
08:47Jeff.
08:48It's a bit weird.
08:49Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.
08:59Really?
09:00It's Stephanie.
09:09Yeah, just take it.
09:14Hello?
09:15Hello, Miss Wong.
09:16I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.
09:19I'm interested in playing the lead.
09:21Can we arrange an audition?
09:25I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.
09:28Thank you, Miss Wong.
09:30What do you think?
09:34Anyone can audition, right?
09:35As long as they're right for the role.
09:39What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...
09:42Okay.
09:44I'll call her back and let her know.
09:47Mm-hmm.
09:56What about me?
09:57Can I be your hero?
10:05Oh, you mean, uh, a film, right?
10:09I've never considered anyone else.
10:12I have to take this.
10:17Hi.
10:23You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.
10:27It's okay.
10:29I can wait.
10:30I've waited this long.
10:37Well, well, well.
10:39Look who it is.
10:40Why are you here?
10:44Oh, I see.
10:46You're the production assistant.
10:48Well, do your job.
10:51Get me a water.
10:54Stephanie.
10:56Get your own water.
10:57I'm not your PA.
10:59Look.
11:00It's my first day on set, and I want to buy coffee for the crew.
11:04Why don't you be a doll and mark down everyone's order?
11:08Are you deaf?
11:09I'm not a PA.
11:12Here's a tip.
11:13Go on.
11:15Show some respect, Stephanie.
11:17Do you know who she is?
11:18What are you doing?
11:23Oh, no.
11:24She can't know.
11:24I'm asking you.
11:28I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
11:31I don't want anyone to know, especially not the team.
11:38What do you mean?
11:40Who is she?
11:43No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.
11:48Isn't that right?
11:50Well, actually, she's...
11:53She's...
11:55Just a PA.
11:57You're right.
11:59So why don't you show me a lower PA, your acting skills?
12:03Maybe I'll be impressed even by who the coffee's myself.
12:07Watch this.
12:13I loved you once.
12:15Or so I thought.
12:18But now I see that it was all just a lie.
12:22A beautiful...
12:23Painful lie.
12:30You took everything from me.
12:34My dreams.
12:36My future.
12:40See?
12:42There's no soul.
12:43That's not acting.
12:44It's just...
12:46Reciting lines.
12:48Why don't you show her how it's done?
12:50What?
12:51Go on.
12:55Go on.
12:56Go on.
12:57I loved you once.
13:20So I thought.
13:21But now I can see.
13:24It was all a lie.
13:28A beautiful, painful lie.
13:32You took everything from me.
13:36My heart.
13:38My dreams.
13:41My future.
13:42And for what?
13:45For your own personal gains.
13:59How is that possible?
14:02Dorothy, that was perfect.
14:05The role is yours if you want it.
14:07No.
14:09This role is mine.
14:12Hide the one with the investment.
14:13Without me, there's no funding for this movie.
14:15Your investment?
14:17Do you even know who she is?
14:20Who is she?
14:25Who is she?
14:26As you know, no one but a PA.
14:30Dorothy.
14:31This movie is important to Stephanie.
14:33I mean, why are you here?
14:34You're not a real actress.
14:36What are you doing?
14:36You're trying to ruin her career.
14:37You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career.
14:39I'm not ruining anything.
14:41If she can't handle the role,
14:43that's on her, not me.
14:45You can't blame this on anyone else.
14:47You embarrassed her in front of everyone.
14:50I mean, I know what you're doing.
14:51You're the one pulling all the strings here.
14:53You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.
14:55She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake.
14:58She's been jealous from the start.
14:59Trying to ruin my chances to get back to you.
15:02Okay, no.
15:03I don't want to fight anymore.
15:04Well, let's just take a look at the script
15:05and maybe we can work something out.
15:08And you were just so damn selfish!
15:12You already care about yourself.
15:14Just give Stephanie her role back.
15:16You know what?
15:18I didn't want to do this.
15:20But I will.
15:22I'll take the role.
15:23I'll play the lead.
15:25I'll play the lead.
15:29No way!
15:30You can't be serious!
15:31She's not even a real actress!
15:35Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours.
15:38Everyone in the room can see it.
15:42I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.
15:46Right, it's settled then.
15:48The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.
15:52I will double my investment.
15:54If you give Stephanie a role.
16:01I never thought I'd see the day my ex-husband would go this far.
16:05For his sister-in-law.
16:07I can always count on you, right?
16:09I will double my investment if you give a role to Stephanie.
16:17You two look as such...
16:18Okay, look.
16:23If the money's on the table, there's no reason to turn it down.
16:26Let's just leave her apart.
16:29We have nothing to lose.
16:30I guess that'll be fine.
16:33I'll talk to SQ.
16:40Your father's production company is already the biggest investor in your movie.
16:43So why take Drake's money?
16:45You don't...
16:45You don't still have feelings for Drake, do you?
16:48No.
16:49He's an asshole.
16:51Come on.
16:54I've got an idea.
16:57Why don't we just give her a character?
16:59That'll make her miserable.
17:03Wow, Mr. Sontaro.
17:04I feel bad now.
17:06I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.
17:16How did she learn herself the role?
17:19She's practically a nobody.
17:20No fan base, no real experience.
17:23Just one good scene.
17:24Doesn't make sense.
17:28Find out everything you can about Dorothy.
17:31I want all the dirt.
17:36Director, there must be a mistake.
17:41I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.
17:44You wanted a role, we gave you a role.
17:47I came in with an investment.
17:51Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.
17:56Even a small role in SQ's film is going to do great things for your career.
17:59Now is not the time for you to be messing around.
18:04Fine.
18:06Two, take one.
18:12Action.
18:14Lily, you are my best friend.
18:15How could you do this to me?
18:16I'm sorry, but this is...
18:17What the hell are you doing?
18:22It's part of the scene!
18:27Okay, take it again from the slap.
18:30Action.
18:30Oh!
18:35Cut!
18:36Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines?
18:39You have to keep going in the scene.
18:42I think you've had enough for today.
18:44We'll just try again tomorrow.
18:45Did you see her face?
18:55Absolute gold.
18:57I mean, she got what she wanted.
18:59She asks for a role and that's what we gave her, so...
19:01Seriously, her performance is all over the place.
19:05Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.
19:09We all know the film's better without her slowing us down.
19:12You're right.
19:15I'm not going to let anyone ruin your story.
19:17So, if you can just give me something that's a bit more...
19:26Tell me about her job.
19:34What's going on with my scenes?
19:35Why have so many of them been cut?
19:37It's a collective decision.
19:41Fuck that!
19:42Let me talk to the writer.
19:44The writer is SQ and, as you know, they never show their face,
19:46so their decision is final.
19:51I'll see you on set in five.
20:05Now it all makes sense.
20:12Now it all makes sense.
20:14That's the head of the production company.
20:16No wonder she got the role.
20:19Let's see how John's wife feels about that.
20:30Everyone, I have an announcement to make.
20:33Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.
20:36You really think I don't see through your little games?
20:44Somebody will be walking out that door today,
20:46but it won't be me.
20:49You really think you can get away with this?
20:52Sleeping your way up?
20:56John's wife is on her way.
20:58Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.
20:59Slut.
21:05That's enough!
21:10So were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?
21:13What?
21:14Scared the truth is going to come out?
21:16Someone had to expose her for who she really is.
21:19So you admit it.
21:21You did it.
21:22Damn right I did.
21:24And I'd do it again if I had to.
21:27You don't know who you just cross!
21:29Oh I know!
21:31Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.
21:34I sent those photos to your wife too.
21:36And now your mistress is about to be exposed.
21:38Yeah, security.
21:43Stephanie is banned from the studio.
21:45Make sure she never sets foot here again.
21:47You can't just do that!
21:49Oh this is insane!
21:50What are I of rights?
21:51I was only telling you the truth!
21:53She is a mistress!
21:54A loose woman!
21:55A lady of the night!
22:03Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:06Well otherwise why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?
22:10That's unbelievable.
22:12And he humiliated me.
22:13He had me dragged off the set like a criminal.
22:15You should have seen it!
22:17I'm not going to let her just ruin her reputation like this.
22:21I mean this whole mess is just making us look like fools.
22:25Dorothy's always been trouble.
22:27I mean first she goes off with a married man and now this.
22:31I don't know how you put up with her for three years.
22:34You should have got a divorce earlier.
22:38Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:42It's the only explanation!
22:44She's clearly nothing but a slut!
22:48Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.
22:52Now you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.
22:56Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?
22:59She was sleeping her way to the top.
23:02Killing Stephanie's unborn child.
23:05And John dragging her off the set.
23:07You should be sticking up for Stephanie.
23:09I'm not going to let her do this to you.
23:29Do you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?
23:32I didn't walk away from anything.
23:33You did.
23:35You chose Stephanie over me.
23:36Remember this one?
23:37Oh, she's my sister-in-law.
23:38I'm so sick of hearing this.
23:42You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it.
23:45You're out of your mind if you think I'm going to let you get away with this.
23:48You do what you want to do.
23:50For now, get out!
23:53Why?
23:53We were married for three years.
24:01We never paid.
24:02Oh, your dear fuck!
24:03You might let go of it!
24:04No wonder you want me to go.
24:17Just look at yourself.
24:19You're not half the man Christopher is.
24:23Get out or I will call the cops.
24:27Just go!
24:34Are you okay?
24:36Are you okay?
24:42Dorothy?
24:43Yeah?
24:44Remember, safety first.
24:46The lifeguard's right there if you need him.
24:48Okay.
24:52Anything you need, let the AD know.
24:54Okay.
24:54Got it.
24:55Got it.
24:55Yeah?
24:56Here's a coffee for you.
25:06It's still early before the shoot.
25:07Take your time.
25:26You'll be okay.
25:51Something's wrong.
26:05That's not acting.
26:07She's in trouble.
26:13Where's the lifeguard?
26:18Where's the lifeguard?
26:21Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:42Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:49Come on, Dorothy.
26:52I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
26:59I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
27:06I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
27:13Christopher risked everything without hesitation.
27:19How could I have been so blind?
27:23Christopher risked everything, without hesitation.
27:26How could I have been so blind?
27:29I wasn't expecting that.
28:00Where were you? Dorothy could have drowned!
28:02I'm sorry, I had a stomachache, I had to look at her back.
28:05Make sure it doesn't happen again.
28:11Do you think that I should call Dorothy just to make sure she's okay?
28:16Are you still hung up on her?
28:18No.
28:20It's not like that, I'm just trying to be helpful.
28:22Don't you remember, Drake?
28:25She's the one who had me kicked out of the movie.
28:27She's the one who killed my baby.
28:30Not just my baby, but Nick's baby.
28:33I know I'm just her sister-in-law.
28:35Whatever happened between us is in the past, but I have no one now.
28:40No husband.
28:42No baby.
28:44What I have left is you.
28:48Haven't you seen through Dorothy yet?
28:50She's nothing but a slut, sleeping her way to the top.
28:52You don't know that.
28:53You know I'm right!
28:56Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
28:59Not just John, but Christopher too!
29:01She's sleeping around with anyone she can find!
29:03She's a whore!
29:04Oh, shut up!
29:05Shut up!
29:15You want war?
29:17I'll give you war.
29:22Do it.
29:24And make sure Dorothy feels every bit of it.
29:27I'll give you some people too.
29:31Breaking news!
29:32Unknown actress seduces Hollywood heartthrob.
29:35Rising star or opportunist?
29:37Actress Dorothy's shocking affair with Christopher.
29:40Christopher's new flame for a heartless gold digger.
29:43Dorothy!
29:44Liar!
29:46Happy!
29:48This is getting out of hand.
29:51Maybe we should just reveal her real identity.
29:54Let everyone know she's not just some random actress.
30:01No.
30:02Dorothy, once we tell them who you are, there's no reason for them to attack you.
30:06There's someone behind us.
30:08And whoever they are, I'll make them hang.
30:10Fuck off.
30:24This can't be right.
30:29I die in the second scene!
30:32This must be Dorothy and John forcing SQ to cut me out.
30:36They won't get away with this.
30:41Tray, can you believe this?
30:44They've completely written me out of the script.
30:47Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
30:50You promised him you'd look after me.
30:52I've already lost my husband and my baby.
30:55I can't lose my career too.
30:56Don't worry.
30:58I'll get you your character back.
31:10There's a tape of a documentary that apparently SQ has always wanted.
31:20So, we win this bid and we gift it to them.
31:24Should be able to get you your rollback.
31:28Up next, a rare gem.
31:31The original film documentary chronicling the creative journey of none other than herself.
31:36Legendary screenwriter Margaret Lane.
31:4050,000.
31:42What's she doing here?
31:45I don't know.
31:47I'm not going to let her win this.
31:4960,000.
31:5470,000.
31:57100,000.
31:58This is my grandmother's documentary.
32:03It's her legacy.
32:05She's the one who inspired me to become a screenwriter.
32:08I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.
32:13500,000.
32:15I'm trying to get you your rollback.
32:29Don't worry.
32:31I've got it covered.
32:33Ladies and gentlemen, we are down to the final bid.
32:36Standing at a whopping 500,000.
32:38500,000 going once.
32:41500,000 going twice.
32:44Sold.
32:46To the lady in the blue dress.
32:55I can't believe this.
32:56You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:05You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:10What's going on?
33:11Ahem.
33:17Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed.
33:20Miss Dorothy is in fact not an invited guest.
33:24Therefore, as per our rules,
33:27this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.
33:31This is ridiculous. I was invited.
33:33Well, in that case...
33:36May I see your invitation?
33:42I did have it, I swear.
33:43I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.
33:45If you do not have the invitation at hand,
33:47the documentary reel has to go to the second highest bidder.
33:50This is the protocol.
33:52I'm sorry.
34:11These are the rules.
34:13The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.
34:35Stephanie, wait.
34:37Just sell it to me.
34:39Name your price.
34:40I'll pay you anything you want.
34:42It's really important to me, please.
34:44Why are you doing this?
34:46Are you just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants?
34:50No, you don't understand.
34:52Just let me buy this.
34:55Whatever it takes.
34:57Dorothy.
34:59You think this is about money?
35:01Please.
35:02This isn't something you can just buy.
35:04Dorothy, what the hell are you doing?
35:07Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:09This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:11She can use this to help her career.
35:13Her career?
35:15Is this about your role being cut from the tail?
35:19Is that why you're doing this?
35:23I'm the writer.
35:24I'm gonna fix this.
35:26I'm gonna write the story and bring your character back.
35:28Just...
35:30Just let me have to read this.
35:32You're the writer.
35:34Are you telling me that you're SQ?
35:39You!
35:40The writer SQ!
35:41Can you give us a break?
35:43Look.
35:44This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:47End it.
35:48Don't make this harder than it has to be.
35:51You've been with Dorothy for so long, and you don't even know her!
35:54Oh, and you do!
35:55A hell of a lot more than you!
35:56Who the fuck do you think you are?
35:57Both of you, calm down!
35:58Both of you, calm down!
36:13Scratched all over!
36:15It's ruined!
36:16Not even fit to be a gift anymore!
36:18I can fix this.
36:20Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it.
36:21Sell it to me, please!
36:22Just name your price!
36:26Even if I had no use for it, I'd never give it to you!
36:29I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:30I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:31I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:32I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:33I want to make movies like you do!
36:34This real?
36:35I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:39This real?
36:40Has more than pictures and sound on it!
36:41Really?
36:42Hmm, an entire world I've captured!
36:43But it's just one way!
36:44It's one way!
36:45I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:46I want to be a writer like you, Grandma!
36:47I want to make movies like you do!
36:49I want to make movies like you do!
36:50This real?
36:51It has more than pictures and sound on it!
36:55Really?
36:56I want to be a writer like you, Grandma. I want to make movies like you do.
37:02This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:07Really?
37:08An entire world I've captured, but it's just one way of seeing things.
37:14The magic is creating it yourself. Someday you will.
37:26Dorothy, I need you to go apologize to Stephanie and give her her role back.
37:36Apologize? To her? She destroyed the reel.
37:39She wouldn't have done that if you hadn't pushed her.
37:46So go apologize or I'm pulling my funding.
37:49Look, Dorothy, let's be real here.
37:52Without Stephanie, Barry's going to invest.
37:57Even the production company will call out if they hear that she's not involved anymore.
38:00Her name carries weight.
38:02Let's not pretend that your reputation is exactly stellar right now.
38:06Christopher's fans hate you. Stephanie's fans hate you.
38:09Even if you actually make this film, no one's going to support you.
38:13You will be Barry.
38:17If you apologize to Stephanie now, I can help you.
38:22I can control the press. I can control the narrative.
38:26I can actually give you a chance.
38:30What's so funny?
38:33What's so funny?
38:35Pull your funding?
38:37Do it.
38:39You'll see it does nothing for the movie.
38:41Okay.
38:42So what if I tell the production head to pull his funding too?
38:46Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?
38:48No.
38:49Go ahead.
38:50Quiet.
38:51You want me to call?
38:53Mm-hmm.
38:54Fine.
38:59Hi, Mr. Bennett.
39:00It's Drake.
39:01Drake Mossbacher.
39:03Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liars Game and I suggest that you do the same thing.
39:06I've seen it and it's a sinking ship.
39:10You're pulling out?
39:11Great.
39:11I'll take full control of the investment.
39:14Not a problem.
39:20So you sat with him?
39:25That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?
39:26Is this how you see me?
39:31The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?
39:33What other explanation do you have?
39:35You know nothing about Dorothy.
39:41Apologize to Stephanie.
39:42Cut ties with Mr. Bennett and end this.
39:45Dorothy, come back to me.
39:46Whatever he's offering you, I'll match it.
39:47I'll double it.
39:48You must be out of your fucking mind.
39:52What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?
39:55Living hell?
39:56You heard me.
39:57Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.
40:01You made me believe you loved me.
40:05And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.
40:08You said you'd always protect me, but then when I need you the most,
40:12you just turned your back on me.
40:14You chose your sister-in-law over your wife.
40:21We've had enough, Drake.
40:22You were my prison.
40:24So just go back to your precious Stephanie.
40:31Let's just go.
40:41Why are you hurt?
40:43Are you okay?
40:44What are you, Steph?
40:51What are you doing?
40:52Well, you want me, don't you?
40:53Just kiss me.
40:54I'm all yours.
40:55Steph!
40:56You're Nick's wife.
40:57I've always thought of you like a sister.
40:59Sister?
41:01Funny.
41:02Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?
41:05Don't you remember what you said?
41:08Remember this?
41:10Yeah.
41:10Why not marry Stephanie?
41:13God.
41:13You're practically begging me not to marry Nick.
41:15No, I shouldn't have said that.
41:16I shouldn't have said that.
41:17I don't see.
41:20What's that?
41:22Oh, it's nothing.
41:23No, what is that?
41:24No, Drake, no.
41:25Please.
41:28You lied about this.
41:32You lied about this.
41:33You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water, but this shows you shoving her in.
41:41It's a glitch.
41:43A glitch.
41:44So, do you actually expect me to believe that?
41:47What's this?
41:50Buying pills off the black market?
41:53Tell her to hit your pregnancy.
41:55It's you.
41:56This time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat, and she was innocent the
42:00whole time.
42:01Please, no.
42:01You have to believe me.
42:03I didn't...
42:03Do you know why?
42:04I've always thought of you like a sister.
42:06I've always taken care of you.
42:08I even thought that I loved you once, but that was before you were Nick's wife.
42:13You changed.
42:16You changed.
42:17You're not the person I thought you were.
42:23I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty, as Nick's brother, to look
42:26after his widow.
42:28I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, eh?
42:32But what does that mean?
42:33You're just going to throw me away?
42:35I'm not going to throw you away, but this is my house.
42:41I'm not back.
42:42I hope you'll be gone.
42:44But you can't just walk away from me like that.
42:46I've said everything that I need to say.
42:47Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.
42:55Dorothy.
42:56This is all your fault.
43:01Let's take this bitch down.
43:15Dorothy, please.
43:17I was wrong.
43:26I misunderstood everything about you and about us.
43:28Can you please just hear me out?
43:34You think you can just come here and apologise?
43:38After everything?
43:39I didn't mean to hurt you.
43:42Look, I understand what I did, but it was just because it was definitely been anywhere.
43:46Can you please just forgive me?
43:47I don't need your apology, Drake.
43:48I don't need your apology, Drake.
43:51You let me down.
43:52You abandoned me.
43:54I didn't mean to hurt me when I needed you the most.
43:57You used me, manipulated me, and now you beg for my forgiveness.
44:03Oh God, please just don't show me out.
44:04I can fix this.
44:06I can fix that.
44:07I can do anything, Dorothy, please.
44:09Just...
44:10No.
44:12You were never the person I thought you were.
44:16And I'm not either.
44:18I've moved on.
44:21I don't need you.
44:22Not like I used to.
44:27Just stay back.
44:29After everything.
44:30Yeah, that's it.
44:43I deserve better than this.
44:52Before you all celebrate this movie, there's something you should know.
45:16Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.
45:18What's going on?
45:19A glorified mistress who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress
45:24when all she's really done is ruin lives.
45:29This is true, Dorothy.
45:30You're involved with a married man.
45:31What's your response to Stephanie's claim?
45:36This is ridiculous.
45:38Let's talk about how she got here, shall we?
45:42She didn't get here off her talent.
45:44Oh no.
45:45She got here by clinging to powerful men.
45:48No real experience.
45:50No skill.
45:51Just a man's name and a man's money.
45:54Security!
45:55Get her out of here!
45:56Wait.
45:57If she has something to say, let's hear it.
46:00Dorothy, it's a trap.
46:02I'm not afraid of the truth.
46:04Let's see what she's got.
46:06What's going on?
46:11So tell us, Dorothy.
46:12How did you get here?
46:15Did you use your relationship with John Bennett to land the part?
46:18A homework, are you saying?
46:36Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?
46:39You're the one who sent me this photo, right?
46:41How about you take another one?
46:43This time, of my lovely family of three.
46:46Dorothy, Dorothy, Dorothy.
46:48Are you really John Bennett's daughter?
46:49Yes.
46:50I bet you never ask my last name.
46:53It's Bennett, by the way.
46:56So, Dorothy is the producer's daughter.
46:59Dorothy, so did you use your father to get the part?
47:03So it's just nepotism, then.
47:06Well, even if she didn't fuck her way to the top,
47:12she still only got here through her connections.
47:14Whether you like it or not, my performance speaks for itself.
47:17And everyone here saw it.
47:19She was actually really good.
47:20Yeah, she handled the movies.
47:22Or are you saying that everyone here is wrong?
47:25You think you're so clever, don't you?
47:28Fine.
47:29You can act a little bit.
47:30But let's be real.
47:32You didn't land this role on your own.
47:33You just snapped your bony little fingers
47:35and let Daddy give you a role.
47:37How else would a nobody like you
47:39have landed yourself the lead otherwise?
47:42Dorothy isn't just a nobody.
47:46She wrote Liar's Game.
47:49She is SQ.
47:54Dorothy is SQ.
47:56How can that be possible?
47:58Liar's Game is a masterpiece.
47:59There's no way you could have written it.
48:01You don't have to believe me.
48:03Just let the credit speak for itself.
48:08How can this be true?
48:15Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer
48:17and the famous writer SQ.
48:19Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:24Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:26Stephanie Marsbecker,
48:28Linda Marsbecker,
48:29and Ellie Marsbecker.
48:30I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.
48:31No, no, no, no.
48:33I didn't do anything wrong.
48:34This was all Stephanie's idea.
48:35I didn't do anything.
48:37This whole time,
48:44she was actually telling the truth.
48:46Dorothy's SQ.
48:49She's genius.
48:50That's why she always had a book in her hand.
48:56Always writing something on her laptop,
48:58always lost in her thoughts.
49:02Didn't you ever see her?
49:05I guess I was blind all along.
49:08I don't deserve that.
49:09I've missed this place.
49:31Don't you remember?
49:32Of course I do.
49:34We saw so many films here.
49:37We would just stay in our seats and talk about life and everything.
49:44But you just made me feel like I could face more anything, really.
49:47God, I used to be so nervous back then.
49:54About everything.
49:55About the future.
49:58But you just made me feel like I could face more anything, really.
50:03No.
50:05Someone had to be there to make sure you didn't overthink everything.
50:08I remember you used to unpick every little detail like it was a life or death situation.
50:12You know, Dorothy.
50:21Life's not been the same without you.
50:26Even when we parted ways, I...
50:27I always knew that we would find each other again.
50:34I don't care what we've been through.
50:36I don't care what's happened.
50:38All I know...
50:39is that I need you now.
50:42More than ever.
50:59And the award for Best Adapted Screenplay goes to...
51:03Dorothy Bennett with Liar's Game!
51:09Wow.
51:10Best Screenplay.
51:12What, shall I start calling you Your Majesty?
51:15I think that's a great idea.
51:17Why don't we start now?
51:19You deserve this.
51:22Your Majesty.
51:23Every bit of it.
51:25Now.
51:27Since you won,
51:29I think this calls for a reward.
51:31Oh, yeah?
51:34And what would that be?
51:36Me.
51:37Me.
51:38Oh!
51:40Oh, yeah.
51:59Oh.
51:59Oh, yeah.
52:03Yeah.
