"Todo el país lo ama, excepto la mujer que realmente lo conoce." Diego es el actor más carismático y deseado del momento, conocido por la prensa como "el exmarido favorito de América" debido a su caballerosidad tras el divorcio. Sin embargo, su exesposa Lucía, una exitosa productora que prefiere el anonimato, sabe que detrás de esa sonrisa perfecta hay un hombre testarudo que le rompió el corazón. Cuando un contrato publicitario millonario los obliga a fingir que han vuelto a estar juntos durante una gira nacional, las chispas (y los reproches) vuelven a volar. Entre alfombras rojas y cámaras ocultas, Diego intentará demostrarle a Lucía —y al mundo entero— que esta vez no está actuando y que está dispuesto a todo para dejar de ser su "ex" y volver a ser el dueño de su vida.

Short filmTranscript
00:00:00And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:08That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:11Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:15Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf for 10 years?
00:00:21Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way back.
00:00:26Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:34Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:39You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:45Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:49If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:56I'll always love my son. But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business. His grandmother.
00:01:04You used to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:07That was a long time ago.
00:01:09America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:13All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:16When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:22You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it. She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:34I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last, and I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:41If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:47This was the last one.
00:01:51Mom, Daniel.
00:01:52What's going on?
00:01:57What's going on?
00:01:59Honey!
00:02:01I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:05If the paparazzi catch him next to you...
00:02:07But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:13Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:14Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, and then I will be free.
00:02:25Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:26Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:30I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:35I saw Preston was there.
00:02:37I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college. I mean, we owe him.
00:02:42Yeah, and then he cheated on you.
00:02:44And I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:46I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:49Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:50But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:02:53No! I want to eat now!
00:03:05Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:03:08He doesn't listen.
00:03:09Daniel, please.
00:03:10I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs at that god-awful Fanity Fair shoot.
00:03:17I got something I need to tell you. I'll make it quick. This isn't easy, but I...
00:03:22Ew! What is this?
00:03:24It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:26It's not healthy food. I want chicken nuggets! Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets!
00:03:31You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:03:34But I want them!
00:03:36Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:39You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:51I waited. I gave it everything I had.
00:03:55But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:03:57And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:03Enough. Just enough.
00:04:09I want a divorce.
00:04:13I want a divorce.
00:04:18Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:21Huh?
00:04:21I want a divorce.
00:04:26I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:28Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:30Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:34Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:04:42Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:46I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:48What is this?
00:04:49Another contract?
00:04:52How big is the role?
00:04:54Who's directing?
00:04:55It's not a...
00:04:56Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:04:59Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:01Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:05I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:10Pull my weight?
00:05:11Yeah, you get it.
00:05:14Mwah! Love you.
00:05:15I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:05:19If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:22Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:26The movie's Greenland, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:05:35We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:37I can't.
00:05:38My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:41After all I've sacrificed,
00:05:42my scripts,
00:05:44my career,
00:05:45my future,
00:05:46all pushed aside.
00:05:47At least there is one good thing to come from this.
00:05:51I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:05:55Hey, Mom.
00:05:56How you doing?
00:05:56Oh, good, dear.
00:05:58I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:02Do you need more?
00:06:03No, no, no, no.
00:06:04You've already done so much.
00:06:06I'm just trying to help.
00:06:07I know.
00:06:09But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:12I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done,
00:06:16but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:20I am, Mom.
00:06:22And I promise,
00:06:24very soon,
00:06:26everything's going to change.
00:06:29That's wonderful, dear.
00:06:31You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:33Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:06:35I gotta go.
00:06:36Love you.
00:06:37What is it, Mom?
00:06:41Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:44Our favorite leading man.
00:06:46Come on.
00:06:52Preston Eastwood,
00:06:54the man that broke my wife's heart
00:06:56and is stealing it back again.
00:07:00Preston Eastwood,
00:07:01the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:03All right, cut.
00:07:11That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:13We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:17Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:19I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:23Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:24If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:30If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:30We got the infantryman that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:32We got the force.
00:07:33We got the force.
00:07:33We got the pressure.
00:07:34We got the force.
00:07:34We got the force.
00:07:35We got the przyc
00:07:51You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:04There's nothing left.
00:08:18Maria, don't!
00:08:19Stay back.
00:08:22I mean it.
00:08:24Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:29Just...
00:08:29Just give me your hand.
00:08:43No!
00:08:45Daniel!
00:08:47I got you.
00:08:48No!
00:08:48Don't let me go!
00:08:51I won't ever let you go.
00:08:58I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:01Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:03I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:03I see all of you, and you're never going to be alone again.
00:09:09Good to see you.
00:09:10Good to see you.
00:09:18Oh, my gosh.
00:09:19How long has it been?
00:09:19Oh, too long.
00:09:20What?
00:09:20You?
00:09:21Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:09:25Yeah, of course, babe.
00:09:26Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:09:28Are you kidding?
00:09:28Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:33Oh, there he is.
00:09:34The assistant.
00:09:36I'll tell you what.
00:09:36There's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:09:39How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:09:44I can't believe my wife, but invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:09:51Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:09:55Daniel.
00:09:55Oh.
00:09:56Don't embarrass me.
00:09:57No, it's fine.
00:09:58Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:03He's not just tough.
00:10:04He's Brett Steele tough.
00:10:06You think, you know?
00:10:07My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:10:09He doesn't let me do anything.
00:10:10Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:10:14What do you say, huh?
00:10:15Yeah.
00:10:16Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:10:20It's fine.
00:10:21It's fine.
00:10:23Just relax, okay?
00:10:25Be nice.
00:10:34Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized,
00:10:38I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:10:42Yeah, it's nice.
00:10:44But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:10:54Oh, careful.
00:10:56You all right?
00:10:59I'm still starving.
00:11:01Make me some food.
00:11:02Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:05Stew?
00:11:05Ew, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:11:08I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:11:11Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:11:14I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:11:18Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:11:21What?
00:11:22For real?
00:11:23Yeah.
00:11:24My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:11:28Donovan Cosmetics.
00:11:29I'm rich.
00:11:30Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:35I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:11:39See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:11:41You're so caught up on the morals.
00:11:42You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:11:44They were so dull.
00:11:46Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:11:49Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:11:53So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:11:57My turn.
00:11:59Here we go.
00:11:59What?
00:12:00Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:12:02I don't mind.
00:12:03All of you insist.
00:12:05I mean, I'm already dressed, so...
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:10Oh, and I wouldn't invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress code, so...
00:12:14Anyways, come on, Ben, let's go!
00:12:18That's great, gotcha.
00:12:19There we go.
00:12:19Oh, there's Paps.
00:12:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:26Last time.
00:12:27I promise.
00:12:29You're right.
00:12:31It is the last time.
00:12:34Hey, guys.
00:12:36Hi!
00:12:37Jackson.
00:12:44Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:12:48Contract's fine.
00:12:50It's over.
00:12:52Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:12:55I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:12:59To 10 years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:02Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:09She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:25Sabrina Donovan, I could scream.
00:13:30I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:32Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:13:36Oh, gee, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:13:39A scene that I wrote, uncredited, of course.
00:13:42Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:44Wait, are you two dating?
00:13:46Oh, well, actually, this is totally a date.
00:13:49All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:13:52Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:13:59You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:02Your brand?
00:14:03It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:05You get it, right?
00:14:06So, you two are a thing?
00:14:17Well, I...
00:14:17It's okay, babe.
00:14:18We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:29This is so going viral.
00:14:31I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:32It looks like more than dating.
00:14:35Is this your son?
00:14:35I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:14:39Don't be silly.
00:14:40You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:14:42That's what all the boys at school say.
00:14:44He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:14:48But Preston is awesome.
00:14:50He's an action spy.
00:14:52I wish he was my dad.
00:14:55My own son doesn't respect me.
00:14:58But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty with a call girl.
00:15:04It's okay, buddy.
00:15:04Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:07If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:10That is if mom's school with it.
00:15:12Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:13Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:16Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:17Come on.
00:15:20Let's get Michelle.
00:15:21Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:15:39I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:15:44Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:15:48Daniel!
00:15:51Daniel!
00:15:52You know, it's probably for the best.
00:15:55From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:15:59Daniel, he's here?
00:16:00He...
00:16:00Did he see us?
00:16:01Is he looking over here?
00:16:03Oh, fuck.
00:16:03That's not good.
00:16:04I was just doing that for Felicity.
00:16:05I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:07Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:08Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:12Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:16:14Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:16Jackson, enough.
00:16:19What do I do?
00:16:20Well, that's it then.
00:16:23Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:24I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:28I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:16:31You're really good at that.
00:16:32Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:16:36A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:16:42I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:16:47I will come after you with everything I got.
00:16:50Daniel loves me.
00:16:51He has to understand.
00:16:52This is Hollywood.
00:16:53It's just part of the job.
00:16:56Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:03Daniel, what is this?
00:17:06I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:09All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:11Are you going somewhere?
00:17:14Honey, what a coincidence.
00:17:17We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:20Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:21A vacation?
00:17:22Finally.
00:17:23You're paying attention.
00:17:25Yeah.
00:17:26I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:17:28Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:17:30What are we supposed to do without you?
00:17:32Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:17:33That's not what I meant.
00:17:35Whoa.
00:17:35Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:17:38That's fine.
00:17:39Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:17:42Just like any good husband would.
00:17:43Oh, I see.
00:17:45Is it me?
00:17:47Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:17:48I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:17:50I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:17:53You know what?
00:17:54Maybe I should go.
00:17:55I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:17:56No, please stay.
00:17:57I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:01No, you know what?
00:18:02I'll go.
00:18:04And clearly she wants you.
00:18:05I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:18:07Daniel, wait.
00:18:07I won't ever let you go.
00:18:11He won't leave.
00:18:12He promised.
00:18:14It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:16We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:18I'm going to go back.
00:18:23Daniel!
00:18:27Better than yours.
00:18:29Yeah.
00:18:32Oh!
00:18:33Oh, good.
00:18:35You're up.
00:18:36Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:18:42It's fun.
00:18:44Why don't look at me like that?
00:18:45I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:18:48Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:18:52How lucky for him.
00:18:54He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:18:57Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:01Listen, Matt, I've had every opportunity to sleep with her
00:19:05and nothing happened.
00:19:07You can trust me.
00:19:09Preston, I think you're...
00:19:11You need to go right now.
00:19:13All right.
00:19:15Oh, hey.
00:19:16Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:19:18I...
00:19:19When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:24I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:19:28Just ignore him.
00:19:29He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:19:30No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:19:34Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:19:36Jealous?
00:19:38My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:19:41Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:19:46You know,
00:19:46I don't think I should be alone.
00:19:53That's all I need to slip into her bed
00:19:55and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:19:58Daniel,
00:20:00can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:04My God.
00:20:06God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:07Are you really going to ask your husband
00:20:12if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:14No, it's not like that.
00:20:16I...
00:20:17What?
00:20:19You know what?
00:20:20Fine.
00:20:23You two look great together.
00:20:24Daniel, I...
00:20:29I...
00:20:37And to think there was a time
00:20:39I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:20:44Um...
00:20:45I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:20:53Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:20:57I was never the homemaker.
00:21:03Please, Daniel.
00:21:07I can't think of any time she was there
00:21:18to comfort me.
00:21:23If you're sick,
00:21:24can you go in the other room?
00:21:26I have a press junkie tomorrow
00:21:27that I seriously can't miss.
00:21:28I can't.
00:21:37Look at her now.
00:21:42Playing house for another man.
00:21:44If only she worked this hard at being a wife
00:21:47when it actually mattered.
00:21:48There he is.
00:22:06God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:09Man.
00:22:10No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:12Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:14I got some.
00:22:18Yeah.
00:22:19What do you need?
00:22:20Oh, oh.
00:22:21Yeah, there you go.
00:22:22I'd offer you some of this shit,
00:22:23but I doubt you'd like it.
00:22:25Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:22:27Bulking up for a new Marvel movie.
00:22:32Hey, uh...
00:22:34You're not pissed off that your wife
00:22:36had to take care of me last night, right?
00:22:38No.
00:22:38A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:22:42Why would I be threatened by that?
00:22:47It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:00What's wrong, Jackson?
00:23:02Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:03I want to play with the fish,
00:23:05but my stupid dad won't let me.
00:23:07And it's unfair!
00:23:07That's a shame, huh?
00:23:09You know what?
00:23:10Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:11Here we go.
00:23:13Ooh.
00:23:14No, it's...
00:23:15not to play with them.
00:23:18You never let me do anything!
00:23:21Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:23:24You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:23:26It's not about the money.
00:23:27It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:23:30Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:23:32bad examples.
00:23:34Yeah?
00:23:35What's that supposed to mean?
00:23:36You're so annoying!
00:23:39Don't push.
00:23:45I said don't push.
00:23:47Go get a book or something.
00:23:48Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:23:50He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.
00:23:53God, what the hell?
00:23:54Just shut up.
00:23:55Call it a lesson.
00:23:59I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:00He's not your kid.
00:24:02I wish I was.
00:24:04I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:07I hate seeing your stupid face.
00:24:09Ouch.
00:24:09I mean, you just heard your son.
00:24:12So why don't you make this little vacay of yours permanent?
00:24:15Maybe it will be.
00:24:16But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:24:19You?
00:24:21Man of the house?
00:24:22Please.
00:24:22You're a pussy in an apron.
00:24:24I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:24:27And you're a washed up pack.
00:24:29Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:24:31How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:24:33I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:24:36I'm a fucking star.
00:24:37A star?
00:24:38A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:24:42Jackson, come on.
00:24:43I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:24:45No, I'm not going.
00:24:46Preston's way cooler than you.
00:24:48Preston, Preston, Preston.
00:24:57You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:25:17What was that?
00:25:24Daniel!
00:25:25What is happening?
00:25:27It was Dad, Mom.
00:25:28Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:25:31What?
00:25:31I'm so scared.
00:25:32That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:25:33What the hell, Daniel?
00:25:35I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:25:36I came in looking for a fight.
00:25:38What?
00:25:39I didn't?
00:25:39Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:25:41You're acting like a jealous child.
00:25:43I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:25:45He threw a fish tank at me.
00:25:47It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:25:48Throw up.
00:25:49Remember where in the public eye?
00:25:52What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:25:54What?
00:25:54Everyone knows your precious press had attacked me?
00:25:56Maybe I should go.
00:25:59I'm sorry.
00:26:00No.
00:26:01Oh, my God.
00:26:03He's lying.
00:26:05You're a monster.
00:26:07And in front of your son?
00:26:08You have to be kidding.
00:26:10We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:11Yeah.
00:26:13We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:26:15Come on.
00:26:16Clean this up.
00:26:17Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:26:24She's mine now, loser.
00:26:34Hello, 911.
00:26:35What's your emergency?
00:26:37I'm bleeding out.
00:26:38I think I hit an artery.
00:26:40I need an ambulance now.
00:26:41Now.
00:26:51You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you
00:26:56with liquids.
00:26:57To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:27:00Trouble with the missus?
00:27:01Uh, yeah.
00:27:06Pretty obvious.
00:27:07Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:11I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.
00:27:17True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:27:21I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:27:24You said, um, a couple?
00:27:27I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official.
00:27:32She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:27:36She was so sweet.
00:27:41Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:27:44No, it's...
00:27:46It's an old wound.
00:27:48I tore it, actually, um...
00:27:50Ten years ago.
00:27:52Daniel!
00:27:54Sweet and caring.
00:27:56So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:27:59He only had to break her heart to get it,
00:28:02and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:09Fuck.
00:28:11Let me get my shit in, y'all.
00:28:14Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:28:16You once liked my short film.
00:28:18I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:28:24It needs the right producer.
00:28:30I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:28:34Where have you been?
00:28:36I kept calling.
00:28:37I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:28:40Huh?
00:28:41What?
00:28:45What?
00:28:45I've been busy.
00:28:46Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:28:49Seriously?
00:28:50Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:28:52I told you, he's just a friend.
00:28:56Yeah.
00:28:57That's what you want to call it?
00:28:58I, I just, I'm sorry.
00:29:03I, bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:29:11It is what it is.
00:29:13But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:29:17You even just hint at a relationship, and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:29:21And I think you should go for it.
00:29:23I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:29:25But, I just, I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:29:33Seriously.
00:29:34I, I care about you.
00:29:40I'm not mad.
00:29:42I've known you for 14 years.
00:29:44I know when you're angry.
00:29:45Really, I didn't think you paid attention.
00:29:48I pay attention?
00:29:51Since when do I not pay attention?
00:29:52She signed the papers without reading them.
00:29:56That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:29:58A headline.
00:29:59A performance.
00:30:02Sabrina.
00:30:06Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:06You know what?
00:30:08I hate fighting.
00:30:09So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:30:12I was thinking.
00:30:14We could revisit your script.
00:30:16I gave that to you three years ago.
00:30:21You tell me you finally read it?
00:30:23Well, yeah.
00:30:24The first ten pages, but they're good.
00:30:28The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:30:31I mean, we have to do this.
00:30:32Me and you.
00:30:33The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:30:35I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:30:41A long time ago.
00:30:43Well, how about you make us some lattes,
00:30:46and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:30:50Just like we used to in film school.
00:30:53There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:30:56I would have melted in her hands.
00:30:59Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:01Fine.
00:31:05I don't know what you do,
00:31:18but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:31:21and it was awful.
00:31:24Well, if I had a lot of experience making it for you,
00:31:26I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:31:28That's not what I meant.
00:31:30I like it when you make it.
00:31:33I'm not going to always be here.
00:31:35To make it.
00:31:38I knew it.
00:31:40You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:31:42I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:31:46God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:31:51Married people are fucking boring.
00:31:54It's good to know where you stand.
00:31:56No, Daniel.
00:31:57No, that's not what I meant.
00:31:59Look what you made me do.
00:32:06Just leave it.
00:32:10I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:32:13And what?
00:32:14It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:32:16I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:32:19And look what I get for it.
00:32:21You know what?
00:32:22Forget it.
00:32:23I have a premiere.
00:32:23We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:32:40What?
00:32:41Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:32:43Yeah.
00:32:44Ex-mother-in-law.
00:32:45Not quite.
00:32:45That was the divorce contract.
00:32:47But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:32:52This is showbiz, baby.
00:32:53Remember that.
00:32:54I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:32:56I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:33:11Oh, please.
00:33:12She's always been so secretive.
00:33:15I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:33:18Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:33:20I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:33:24Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:33:30Come here.
00:33:30Oh.
00:33:34Jackson!
00:33:35We were just talking about your mom.
00:33:37Do you know where she is?
00:33:39Or who she's with?
00:33:41She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:33:42He's been staying with us.
00:33:43Oh.
00:33:44Really?
00:33:46Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:33:49Oh, I hope so.
00:33:50I really hope so.
00:33:51He's way cooler than my old, boring real dad.
00:33:55Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:33:58Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:34:01What are you doing here?
00:34:09You never come to these things.
00:34:11Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:34:14Get lost.
00:34:15You embarrass us.
00:34:16Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:34:18I'm your father.
00:34:19I wish you never were my dad.
00:34:24Is there a problem?
00:34:25Oh, my God.
00:34:31That's Preston Eastwood.
00:34:33How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:34:36If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:34:39I wish Preston was my dad.
00:34:40You're a pathetic loser.
00:34:42Zip it, Jackson.
00:34:43You should probably listen to your kid and head out because we're starting to make a scene.
00:34:49I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:34:50That's not what I see.
00:34:51You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:00That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:35:04It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:35:06And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:35:11This was all a stunt, was it?
00:35:13You were revolting.
00:35:15No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:35:17Hey.
00:35:19Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:35:21Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:35:24Yeah.
00:35:25Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:35:27Oh yeah?
00:35:28What lesson is that, Preston?
00:35:29You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:35:34Hmm.
00:35:37Oh!
00:35:38Oh!
00:35:38Oh!
00:35:38Oh!
00:35:38Oh!
00:35:51What the hell?
00:35:55What happened?
00:35:59Oh my god!
00:36:00Daniel!
00:36:01What the hell happened?
00:36:03Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:36:04Are you okay?
00:36:06Look at her go.
00:36:07Hollywood's finest.
00:36:09Always performing when there's an audience.
00:36:11It's Daniel.
00:36:13He's a monster.
00:36:14He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:36:17Mommy!
00:36:18Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:36:21No.
00:36:22No, that's not true.
00:36:23If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:36:29Can you imagine the allegations?
00:36:32Daniel, is that true?
00:36:35Sabrina.
00:36:39Oh!
00:36:40Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:36:43I think one of them's broken.
00:36:45Sabrina?
00:36:46Honey?
00:36:47We need to help Preston.
00:36:51But Daniel!
00:36:55Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:05Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:37:11I have to help Preston.
00:37:29Come on, Jackson.
00:37:35Daniel!
00:37:37I got you.
00:37:38Don't let me go!
00:37:40She's made her choice.
00:37:42There's no going back.
00:37:43We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:37:56Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:38:00Now we can make a clean break.
00:38:02I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:38:05There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:38:09Get out of Hollywood.
00:38:11In fact, get out of the country.
00:38:14If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:38:19I will make your life a living hell.
00:38:20Don't worry about it.
00:38:35Just drive.
00:38:36I used to ache for her approval.
00:38:52Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:38:54Seriously?
00:38:55Seriously?
00:38:56Seriously, Dad.
00:38:58I know.
00:38:59Why is he dead?
00:39:00Oh!
00:39:01I'm gonna go call the doctor, okay?
00:39:03What are you doing?
00:39:04What are you doing?
00:39:07I thought you were hurt.
00:39:08I think I'll pull through.
00:39:09So what are you doing?
00:39:17I don't know what I've always wanted to.
00:39:20Come on.
00:39:21I know you want this.
00:39:22Because I see the way you look at me.
00:39:23And now that Daniel's gone, we have the house to ourself.
00:39:27I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:39:30What am I doing?
00:39:41Daniel is still injured.
00:39:43He should be home.
00:39:47Sabrina?
00:39:58Preston, get off.
00:40:00What?
00:40:01Babe, we can finally.
00:40:03Come on.
00:40:03I said get off.
00:40:05What?
00:40:05I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:40:07No, forget about him.
00:40:09Look, I love Jackson.
00:40:11And I'm ready to be the man that you've always wanted.
00:40:14I'm ready to be a dad to that little boy.
00:40:18I mean, come on.
00:40:19Sabrina, your son, your mother.
00:40:21Even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:40:24What?
00:40:25Look, he's already moved on.
00:40:28No.
00:40:30No.
00:40:31What have I done?
00:40:33Where is he?
00:40:34What about me?
00:40:36You had your chance ten years ago.
00:40:38I need to go take care of my husband.
00:40:40Hello?
00:40:47Excuse me.
00:40:49Excuse me.
00:40:50Hi.
00:40:51Have you seen my husband?
00:40:53Please.
00:40:54He was someone bleeding out.
00:40:55I saw him stumble outside holding his head after he spoke to some older woman.
00:40:59He didn't come back in, though.
00:41:05Daniel, where are you?
00:41:07I'm sorry, but the number you are trying to reach is no longer in service.
00:41:11Please try again later.
00:41:12What have I done?
00:41:25Come on, Daniel.
00:41:26Answer me.
00:41:33He's not gone.
00:41:34I know Daniel wouldn't leave me.
00:41:45He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him the most.
00:41:49No.
00:41:52It's not possible.
00:41:55He will be back.
00:41:58No.
00:41:58Boy, it's all assets.
00:42:11Claims zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:42:13The waives all spousal support.
00:42:16No.
00:42:17No, he can't leave me.
00:42:19He can't do this to me.
00:42:20I won't sign off on him.
00:42:28All this time, he's going to leave me.
00:42:50It can't be.
00:42:54It's not a...
00:42:55Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:42:56My mom will look it over anyways.
00:42:58He loves me.
00:43:01He loves Jackson.
00:43:03He wouldn't just leave us.
00:43:05We're his family.
00:43:06After all these years, everything we've been through...
00:43:10I got you.
00:43:32Don't let me go!
00:43:34Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:41Daniel?
00:43:42No, it's Mom.
00:43:44Is everything okay?
00:43:45You sound panicked.
00:43:46Mom!
00:43:48Mom!
00:43:50Daniel!
00:43:51He just left us!
00:43:54Do you know where he is?
00:43:56We have to find him.
00:43:57We can check the hospital or the...
00:43:59Oh, honey.
00:44:01It's over.
00:44:03Daniel's not coming back.
00:44:05You knew?
00:44:06I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:44:17I'm hungry!
00:44:18Dad!
00:44:20Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:44:23Taxi?
00:44:26I have something to tell you.
00:44:29Your dad...
00:44:30Your dad...
00:44:34He's left us.
00:44:36I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:44:39Yay!
00:44:39He's gone!
00:44:40He's gone!
00:44:40Why would you say that?
00:44:43He was so embarrassing.
00:44:45Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:44:46Mr. Eastwood?
00:44:48What did Preston say?
00:44:50He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets than raising a young man.
00:44:56He was so lame and boring.
00:44:59Now he's gone.
00:45:00Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:45:03He can be my new dad.
00:45:04Jackson!
00:45:06You have a dad.
00:45:07And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:45:09Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:18Hello?
00:45:19Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:45:20Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:45:22I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:45:25I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:45:26Large sums have been wired to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:45:30Was that done with your approval?
00:45:32No, but I'm not surprised.
00:45:34Flag his name.
00:45:36I want him frozen and cut off.
00:45:39Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say Preston's name again.
00:45:43Okay?
00:45:44He's not the man you think he is.
00:45:46Your father, the one who raised you and cared about you, is out there.
00:45:50And we need to find him at all costs.
00:45:53What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:45:56It's despicable.
00:45:58I can't do this anymore.
00:46:00I cancel everything.
00:46:02The interviews, the red carpets.
00:46:04I don't want to be seen.
00:46:07I can't pretend.
00:46:09I just want him back.
00:46:12Honey, it's time to let him go.
00:46:15You don't love him anyway.
00:46:18Think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:46:20What?
00:46:25How could you say something like that?
00:46:27Of course I love Daniel.
00:46:29He cares for me.
00:46:31He sees me.
00:46:32He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing.
00:46:36But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:46:40Daniel's my husband.
00:46:42And the father of my son.
00:46:43Yeah, some husband.
00:46:45Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:46:47Wanting nothing to do with his child just because the contract ended?
00:46:49Contract?
00:46:52What contract?
00:46:57What are you talking about?
00:46:59Forget it.
00:47:00Forget it.
00:47:01Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:47:03When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day,
00:47:06you said that he was going on a trip.
00:47:08Is there something you're not telling me?
00:47:11Please.
00:47:11I just want the truth.
00:47:13Mom.
00:47:15Fine.
00:47:17I will tell you the truth.
00:47:19But promise me you won't get mad.
00:47:23I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:47:26But no, it was all for your own good.
00:47:29When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:47:36I had to save you.
00:47:38She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:47:41You've always been there for her.
00:47:43From film school to now.
00:47:45I've seen it.
00:47:47She needs you.
00:47:48Stay.
00:47:49Marry her.
00:47:50Love her.
00:47:50So that she's never alone again.
00:47:59It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:48:03How could you do this to me?
00:48:05I wanted to protect you.
00:48:07You wanted to control me.
00:48:09All because you needed me for my career, my money.
00:48:12Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:48:14You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:48:22Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:48:24He kept you together.
00:48:26Where?
00:48:27Where did he go?
00:48:28I know he told you where he went.
00:48:30Where is he?
00:48:31You can do better than him.
00:48:33You are Sabrina Donovan, Hollywood starlet.
00:48:38Believe me, it's for the best.
00:48:40No, he can't be gone.
00:48:42He can't.
00:48:43Yes, he is gone and he is gone forever.
00:48:46He can't be.
00:48:47He can't be gone again.
00:48:49He can't.
00:49:09I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox that's already generated
00:49:14a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:49:19Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:49:25Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:49:29What's going through your head tonight?
00:49:32Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own speed.
00:49:35Nobody told me how.
00:49:36Oh, man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:49:39I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:49:42Uh, yeah, um, God, my career has been a long time in the making and I've been very honest
00:49:48about it, actually.
00:49:48I almost, I almost gave up the dream.
00:49:50But London, London lit the fire under me and I feel like I found my voice and it really
00:49:57is full steam ahead.
00:49:59Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director, will you be making your way
00:50:02back to Hollywood?
00:50:03Hollywood.
00:50:08Get out of the country.
00:50:10If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid, that will make your life a living
00:50:16hell.
00:50:19Daniel?
00:50:20He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:50:36Daniel is a true auteur and a creative genius and it was a privilege to be his leading
00:50:43lady.
00:50:44That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake, two-time Golden Globe award-winning
00:50:48actress and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:50:52Well, I've heard that your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:50:55She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:51:05I know, jeez.
00:51:06This is so surreal.
00:51:07I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:51:10I can.
00:51:11The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:51:13Daniel, enjoy this and get used to compliments.
00:51:21There's already Oscar buzz.
00:51:23Fuck.
00:51:24Finish me, I know.
00:51:25I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:51:28You okay?
00:51:30You always do that when you're nervous.
00:51:32I know, it's, um, I'll have it.
00:51:35Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:51:40Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:52I bet them.
00:51:54Our press is good press.
00:51:55Daniel becomes an award-winning director, and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning
00:52:05bitch?
00:52:07He can't do this to me!
00:52:10Sabrina.
00:52:11You don't need him.
00:52:12Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:52:14How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:17Move on?
00:52:18Please, honey.
00:52:19He is using her.
00:52:22Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:52:24He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:52:27How could you say that?
00:52:29I mean, any, if anything, being with me hurt his career.
00:52:32He's proving that to the whole world!
00:52:35Don't you see it?
00:52:36Sabrina.
00:52:37Look at what you've got.
00:52:39A celebrated career, a mansion in the hills, an adorable kid.
00:52:44Well, and he's not whining.
00:52:46And don't forget about Preston.
00:52:48Your dream man.
00:52:50You have everything.
00:52:51I don't have him.
00:52:54Mom, I'm hungry.
00:52:56Go have the chef make something.
00:52:57No, I hate what she cooks.
00:52:59And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:01Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:53:03Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:05He's your dad.
00:53:06No!
00:53:06Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:08Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:12It was fun telling him what to do.
00:53:13When did he get so cruel?
00:53:16You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:53:19A doormat.
00:53:21Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:23Daniel's a doormat.
00:53:24Enough!
00:53:26You little shit!
00:53:28Enough!
00:53:29Just enough!
00:53:31Sabrina?
00:53:32What's gotten into you?
00:53:34Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:37Whoa.
00:53:37What's going on here?
00:53:40This room feels really tense.
00:53:41Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:44I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:45No!
00:53:46I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:49And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:53:52It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:53:55Hey, baby.
00:54:00Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for, what, making fun of that fucking loser?
00:54:04Really?
00:54:04Loser?
00:54:05Yeah.
00:54:06You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:54:09And you've been mooching off of me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:54:18That's really, really low.
00:54:20Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:54:25Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:54:27To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:54:31Face it, Preston.
00:54:32You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:54:35And you're a fucking thief.
00:54:38Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:54:39You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:54:42I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:54:45Because you know what?
00:54:46Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:48It's not like that, okay?
00:54:49Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:54:52I want to marry you.
00:54:54We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:54:56What's my birthday?
00:54:58Huh?
00:54:59What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:01What's my favorite color?
00:55:02My favorite song?
00:55:03Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:06Oh, oh wait.
00:55:07What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:09You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:11You don't love me.
00:55:13You don't even know me.
00:55:14This isn't a relationship.
00:55:17This is a publicity stunt.
00:55:19And you know what?
00:55:20I'm done.
00:55:21Get out.
00:55:22I don't want to ever see you again.
00:55:25We're over.
00:55:26We're over.
00:55:27No, babe, babe, come on.
00:55:29Please, please, I love you.
00:55:30Just think about it.
00:55:32Look at the press.
00:55:33What this will look like.
00:55:34If I have to call my security,
00:55:36all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:38Get out.
00:55:39Babe, just...
00:55:40Now.
00:55:41Just give me your hand.
00:55:42Come on.
00:55:42No.
00:55:42I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:46Nobody sees the real me.
00:55:48I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:50I see all of you.
00:55:52And you're never going to be alone again.
00:55:55He truly knew me.
00:55:59He loved me.
00:56:00Every flaw, every fear, contract or not,
00:56:05he truly loved me.
00:56:07I saved you from social suicide.
00:56:10Saved me?
00:56:10I mean, you don't even know how ironic that is.
00:56:14Daniel saved me from the ledge.
00:56:16And he saved me from you.
00:56:19Security!
00:56:22Security!
00:56:23Come on.
00:56:23Just let's talk about this.
00:56:24No.
00:56:26Come on.
00:56:26Celeste, do something.
00:56:28Come on.
00:56:28Sabrina.
00:56:29Come on, Sabrina.
00:56:31Was that really necessary?
00:56:34I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:56:36and people's sexiest man alive.
00:56:37Is that all you care about?
00:56:39The fame, the headlines, the brand deals?
00:56:43God, you're supposed to be my mother first,
00:56:46not some money-grubbing manager.
00:56:49Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:56:51Of course I care about you.
00:56:54I love you.
00:56:56Then prove it.
00:56:57If you ever want me in front of a camera again,
00:56:59then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:57:01You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee.
00:57:15I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:57:18In film school, we were literally told to watch
00:57:21every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:23I mean, you know this.
00:57:25You're a legend.
00:57:26I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:57:27All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:57:29You're a powerhouse-sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:57:32I appreciate the compliment,
00:57:33but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:57:34I got projects.
00:57:35Come on.
00:57:36You're built for billion-dollar franchises,
00:57:38Hollywood blockbusters,
00:57:39the one that gets made in L.A., not London.
00:57:41That's where you belong.
00:57:44To be honest, I already did all.
00:57:45It didn't really end well.
00:57:48Let me guess.
00:57:48My girl?
00:57:50If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty,
00:57:53Sabrina Donovan.
00:57:55You don't walk away from a gift like yours
00:57:56over some heartbreak.
00:57:58You can become a household name,
00:57:59and I can get you there.
00:58:02You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:03Three-picture deal.
00:58:04$200 million budget each.
00:58:06Creative control and final cut approval.
00:58:08I don't know what to say.
00:58:09Just say yes.
00:58:10You have my number.
00:58:12Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:14Just remember, Daniel,
00:58:15you can't run away from the past.
00:58:17You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
00:58:30Hey, it's been a while.
00:58:33Can we talk?
00:58:35Daniel, can you give us a hint
00:58:36about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:39Of course.
00:58:39It's about a man who gets fucked over
00:58:41by America's sweetheart
00:58:42and comes out on top.
00:58:44Is this a personal story?
00:58:46Well, we get a hint at
00:58:48who the mystery woman is.
00:58:49Oh.
00:58:52She knows who she is.
00:58:54Um, I'll leave it at that.
00:58:58You arrogant little shit.
00:59:01I told you if you ever set foot
00:59:02in this fucking country,
00:59:04I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:10It's Celeste Donovan.
00:59:11I need a favor.
00:59:13I need you to track down Daniel Johnson
00:59:14and find out where he'll be
00:59:15around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:59:19It's time for a little reunion
00:59:20with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:23Mom?
00:59:24What are you doing?
00:59:28Did you just break my TV?
00:59:31Can you give us a name
00:59:31for your upcoming film?
00:59:34You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:59:35You've been so kind, though.
00:59:36Um, it's called
00:59:38You Drive Me Crazy.
00:59:42He's back.
00:59:44Why didn't you tell me?
00:59:46Honey, I didn't want you
00:59:48spiraling again.
00:59:49I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:59:51I need to get on that movie.
00:59:53Absolutely not.
00:59:55You're not working
00:59:55for your ex-husband.
00:59:56If you don't get me an audition,
00:59:58then I will get a manager
00:59:59who will.
01:00:00Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:02He still loves me.
01:00:05He has to.
01:00:07I just need to talk to him.
01:00:09Let him go.
01:00:13Mom.
01:00:14Honey, I...
01:00:16You know I just want
01:00:18what's best for you, right?
01:00:20I just don't want to see
01:00:21my little girl hurt again.
01:00:24I love you.
01:00:26I love you, too.
01:00:30Here we go.
01:00:33This is, um...
01:00:34It's another movie deal.
01:00:36I'll tell you about it after.
01:00:37Okay.
01:00:52Did you get his location?
01:00:54The Oaks.
01:00:558 p.m.
01:00:57After I'm done with him,
01:00:59Daniel Johnson won't just be
01:01:00blacklisted by Hollywood,
01:01:02he'll be erased
01:01:03from Sabrina's life forever.
01:01:13She's not protecting me.
01:01:15She's protecting her business.
01:01:17And I'm just a pawn.
01:01:19But if she wants a scandal,
01:01:21she'll get one.
01:01:23It's so nice having you back.
01:01:25And I don't just mean
01:01:26from the UK.
01:01:28Yeah, it's been a rough
01:01:28couple of years, hasn't it?
01:01:30A couple?
01:01:31Daniel, it was 10 years
01:01:33of you slaving away
01:01:34for those people,
01:01:35if you can even call them that.
01:01:37But you're healthy now.
01:01:38And I'm at the top of my career.
01:01:40I mean, yeah,
01:01:40there was a time that I...
01:01:42I love Sabrina,
01:01:43but I really thought
01:01:44I could make it work.
01:01:45The marriage, the kids.
01:01:47I mean, we really tried.
01:01:49I thought I could make it go for it,
01:01:50but it's over.
01:01:54It's over.
01:01:55I mean, let her chase
01:01:56whatever fantasy she thinks
01:01:57Preston Eastwood can offer.
01:02:06Oh, you haven't heard?
01:02:09She dumped him.
01:02:11It was all over People Magazine.
01:02:12She ended it
01:02:13when his star faded.
01:02:16Oh, my God.
01:02:17What?
01:02:17Daniel!
01:02:26Stop!
01:02:34Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:02:36I'm here to help you.
01:02:38Sabrina,
01:02:39you're making a scene.
01:02:41Let's go home.
01:02:42Sabrina?
01:02:42How could you?
01:02:43What?
01:02:44I just came to ask Daniel
01:02:46if he'd let you audition,
01:02:47but he said no.
01:02:48I begged and pleaded.
01:02:49Stop lying.
01:02:51I saw you bribe the waiter
01:02:53to drug Daniel's drink.
01:02:55And I'll bet you called
01:02:56the paparazzi, too,
01:02:57to catch him drugged
01:02:58out of his mind
01:02:59and ruin him.
01:03:00My God.
01:03:01You're disgusting.
01:03:03I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:04Not anymore.
01:03:06Why did you become
01:03:07such a conniving,
01:03:09scheming snake?
01:03:10I don't even know
01:03:11who you are anymore.
01:03:14I'm your mother.
01:03:15I only want
01:03:17what's best for you.
01:03:18What's best for me?
01:03:22You've been controlling
01:03:23my life ever since you knew
01:03:24you could profit from it.
01:03:26That all ends today.
01:03:31You're fired.
01:03:33You're fired.
01:03:34You're fired.
01:03:35No.
01:03:38No.
01:03:42No.
01:03:44You can't do this to me.
01:03:45Please.
01:03:46Please, sweetie.
01:03:47I have dedicated
01:03:48my life to you.
01:03:49You dedicated your life
01:03:50to money
01:03:50and to fame.
01:03:53I was just who
01:03:54you used to get to it.
01:03:56You think you can survive
01:03:57on sheer talent?
01:03:59There's a thousand girls
01:04:00more talented than you
01:04:01waiting for their shot.
01:04:02I made you.
01:04:04You'd be nothing
01:04:04without me.
01:04:08I think she'll do
01:04:09just fine.
01:04:16We're done here, Mom.
01:04:18If you want any chance
01:04:20to be in Jackson's life
01:04:21or in mine,
01:04:23you'll leave now.
01:04:25Without another word.
01:04:32I have something to say.
01:04:41I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:04:43I'm sorry I took you
01:04:44for granted
01:04:45all of those years.
01:04:47I'm sorry I let my mom
01:04:48manipulate and use you.
01:04:51I'm sorry I brought
01:04:53Preston into our home
01:04:55and poisoned our son
01:04:57towards you.
01:04:58Apologize to your father.
01:05:02Do I have to?
01:05:04Who raised you?
01:05:06Cared for you?
01:05:09Packed your lunches
01:05:10when I was on set?
01:05:12Laid with you
01:05:13when you had nightmares
01:05:14and coddled you
01:05:15when you were sick?
01:05:16He did.
01:05:18He loved you.
01:05:19But you treated him
01:05:20like he was nothing.
01:05:21I was wrong.
01:05:23Jackson,
01:05:24he gave us
01:05:24ten years of his life
01:05:26and we abused it.
01:05:28And now there is
01:05:29nothing we can do
01:05:30to take that back.
01:05:32I'm sorry, Dad.
01:05:36It's going to be okay, son.
01:05:38I'm just going to love you.
01:05:40Okay.
01:05:41Come on, Jackson.
01:05:42Let's go.
01:05:49I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:51For everything.
01:05:52Okay.
01:05:56I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:04You're thinking
01:06:04of going back to them.
01:06:06I just didn't know
01:06:09it would be this hard.
01:06:10They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:13They tore you to pieces
01:06:15and then just expected
01:06:17you to come running back.
01:06:20People can change,
01:06:22but that doesn't change
01:06:24the past.
01:06:28And the Oscar goes to
01:06:30Daniel Johnson
01:06:31for his original screenplay,
01:06:33Loving Her.
01:06:36Daniel!
01:06:37Daniel!
01:06:37Daniel!
01:06:38Daniel!
01:06:38Daniel!
01:06:39Daniel, is it true
01:06:40that the script
01:06:41that won you Oscars
01:06:42for both writing
01:06:42and directing
01:06:43sat on the shelf
01:06:44for ten years?
01:06:45Yes.
01:06:46I'll admit,
01:06:46I got a little sidelined,
01:06:47but I think
01:06:49I found my way back.
01:06:51But, okay,
01:06:52I'll tell you this.
01:06:53I don't think
01:06:55you can truly
01:06:56love someone else
01:06:57until
01:06:58you love yourself.
01:07:04Way to go, Jan!
01:07:06Thank you so much
01:07:24for considering me
01:07:25for this part.
01:07:27We'll keep it done.

01:07:34do we have today?

01:07:55That's why I love you, man.
01:07:56Cool under pressure.
01:07:58This movie
01:07:58is gonna blow
01:07:59the roof off.
01:08:04Oh, my God.

01:08:05But that would be
01:08:08Emily Blake.
01:08:12Emily.
01:08:17Emily.
01:08:18Amazing, as always.
01:08:20You flew in all the way
01:08:22from London for this?
01:08:23Please.
01:08:25I wasn't gonna miss a shot
01:08:26who auditioned
01:08:26for the great
01:08:27Daniel Johnson.
01:08:29How's LA treating you?
01:08:31Oh, my God.
01:08:32Less tea,
01:08:33but way more traffic.
01:08:34But I am...
01:08:36I'm glad to be back.
01:08:38Well, it's no
01:08:39English countryside.
01:08:40Yeah.
01:08:40But it suits you.
01:08:44You definitely belong here.
01:08:48I do miss you, though.
01:08:50It was fun.
01:08:51Playing the part.
01:08:53British starlet.
01:08:54American director.
01:08:56I kept waiting for us
01:08:58to become something real.
01:09:01Waiting for us
01:09:02to become something real.
01:09:03I'm sorry, Emily.
01:09:06It just costs me,
01:09:07and we'll call it even.
01:09:09You...
01:09:09You were amazing,
01:09:11as always.
01:09:12It's just...
01:09:13It's just not quite
01:09:15what I'm looking for.
01:09:18I never was,
01:09:19was I?
01:09:20Anyways...
01:09:22Got a few more auditions
01:09:23while I'm in town.
01:09:25Maybe I'll see you around?
01:09:27Yeah.
01:09:27Give me a coffee,
01:09:40and you know what?
01:09:40Go get one for yourself, too.
01:09:44And be generous with the sugar.
01:09:45Oh, my God.
01:09:52What am I gonna do?
01:09:59That was quick.
01:10:10What are you doing here?
01:10:11I came to audition.
01:10:17Did you bring any representation?
01:10:19No.
01:10:20I fired my manager, remember?
01:10:23I'm starting fresh.
01:10:25Right, um...
01:10:26Hi.
01:10:29I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:10:34Don't let me go!

01:10:37I'll never let you go.
01:10:41Are you okay?
01:10:42Yeah.
01:10:43It's an old wound that, um...
01:10:45never really healed.
01:10:48I understand.
01:10:49Daniel Johnson.
01:10:56Nice to meet you.
