00:13:51I'm screwed!
00:14:03I'm so sorry.
00:14:09Please don't recognize me. Please don't recognize me.
00:14:13You're Giselle's friend, right?
00:14:16The clumsy one.
00:14:18A week ago, I would have killed to be recognized by my favorite author. Now I wish I was dead.
00:14:23Hey, why are you crying? Okay?
00:14:39I was just, um, reading a sad book.
00:14:48And what were you reading?
00:14:51Think, Lisa. You're a writer. You know about books.
00:14:55Wait, I know.
00:14:56Wuthering Heights.
00:14:58Not a lie. It does make me cry.
00:15:01Wuthering Heights? Well, that's one of my favorites.
00:15:04It makes me cry, too. It's so beautiful. Tragic.
00:15:10You like romance?
00:15:11Yeah, I used to.
00:15:13Hey, let me help you.
00:15:15I got it, really.
00:15:26Is this yours?
00:15:28I'm not stalking you, I promise.
00:15:30You can admit you like me.
00:15:38Okay, I'm a fan.
00:15:41I read your books, because I know you have a new one coming out, so I was just rereading your
00:15:45last one for about the tenth time.
00:15:49You read my book ten times?
00:15:52I'm a writer, too.
00:15:54Miss Von Klint's my publisher.
00:15:55So I've heard.
00:16:01Funny seeing you here.
00:16:03Aren't you supposed to be a recluse?
00:16:04Whoever said that obviously spends no time in the library, because I'm here all the time.
00:16:10And I love the smell of old books.
00:16:13What are you checking out?
00:16:15That's actually this new author.
00:16:18Um, have you heard of Heidi Brushfire?
00:16:23But, how...
00:16:24I googled it.
00:16:26I'm not stalking you.
00:16:28I promise.
00:16:31And here is the romance section.
00:16:36Here we go.
00:16:39Oh, yes.
00:16:41I can't wait to read this.
00:16:43Oh, could you take a picture of us?
00:16:46I'm a big fan of yours, Miss Brushfire.
00:16:48Oh, okay.
00:16:55Oh, looking forward to your next book.
00:17:01That never happens in Indiana.
00:17:04Back to Wuthering Heights.
00:17:07Not to brag.
00:17:08But I happen to own a first edition.
00:17:11Come buy my place sometime and check it out.
00:17:14Your place?
00:17:15Oh.
00:17:16Um.
00:17:17How about tomorrow?
00:17:33Hi, Miss Von Klimt.
00:17:36Hi, Poopoo.
00:17:39Poopoo.
00:17:41So cute.
00:17:42Where have you been?
00:17:44And why am I not Mrs. M.K. Roth yet?
00:17:48Funnily enough, I just ran into Max at the library.
00:17:55Did he say anything about the other night?
00:17:58Tell me everything.
00:18:00It actually didn't come up.
00:18:02That could be good.
00:18:03Actually, he invited me over tomorrow afternoon.
00:18:07You?
00:18:08What did I tell you about snaking my man?
00:18:12Back your bags.
00:18:13You're out of here.
00:18:15Oh, wait, wait.
00:18:17Let me explain.
00:18:19You're right.
00:18:21Max is a special case.
00:18:23My usual advice won't work.
00:18:25I need to get to know him better.
00:18:28I'll tell you everything so we can use it to your advantage.
00:18:31I just need some more time.
00:18:33Not a bad plan.
00:18:38What do you think, Poopoo?
00:18:40Should we trust her?
00:18:44I leave for New York this week.
00:18:46If you don't have results by the time that I'm back,
00:18:50you're out of a job and a publishing deal.
00:18:54Got it?
00:19:01Since the divorce, every moment was pain.
00:19:04James felt like Prometheus, tortured by the gods.
00:19:08But instead of eagles eating his liver,
00:19:11they picked at his heart.
00:19:13Then again, maybe he deserved to suffer.
00:19:23Oh.
00:19:27Who would read this self-pitying garbage?
00:19:30I've got to snap out of it.
00:19:34Lisa!
00:19:35I almost forgot.
00:19:37Just the writing break I needed.
00:19:47Hi, Max.
00:19:50It's so good to see you.
00:19:55Same here.
00:19:59Come in.
00:20:00Do you want some wine?
00:20:01Um, water's fine.
00:20:07Don't lose your mind over a man, Lisa.
00:20:09You have a job to do.
00:20:18Hard to believe people have been falling in love with Catherine and Heathcliff for almost 200 years.
00:20:24Well, they're pretty easy to fall for.
00:20:31I leave for New York this week.
00:20:34If you don't have results by the time that I'm back,
00:20:37you're out of a job and a publishing deal.
00:20:41Got it?
00:20:44So, Max, seeing anyone lately?
00:20:48I'm seeing you.
00:20:50Right now.
00:20:51I mean, romantically.
00:20:54What do you want in a woman?
00:21:01Just look in the mirror.
00:21:05You Joker.
00:21:10Is it me or is Max coming on stronger than Pepe Le Pew?
00:21:14He's supposed to want Giselle.
00:21:16I've got to get his mind off me.
00:21:21Forgive me, Emily Bronte.
00:21:30Lisa, it's a $50,000 book.
00:21:34$50,000?
00:21:37Oh, no.
00:21:38I went too far.
00:21:40Please let the book be okay.
00:21:46There's no damage.
00:21:49Luckily.
00:21:50I'm so sorry.
00:21:53Let me clean up.
00:22:01So when's the new book coming out?
00:22:03Soon as I finish writing it.
00:22:05It's not done yet, I thought.
00:22:07The subject matter is proven quite difficult.
00:22:10It's about a divorce.
00:22:13My divorce.
00:22:15I'm so sorry.
00:22:16I didn't know.
00:22:16Unlike some public figures,
00:22:17I don't like to broadcast my personal life.
00:22:21Anyway, I'll finish the book.
00:22:22I just can't find the ending.
00:22:23When I have writer's block,
00:22:25I usually try to talk it out with someone.
00:22:27Usually my mom.
00:22:28She gives surprisingly good notes.
00:22:31Thanks, Lisa, but I don't think my mom can help me with this issue.
00:22:35Sorry.
00:22:36Stupid.
00:22:38Thanks for the advice.
00:22:40I can write an ending.
00:22:42I just don't know what it should be.
00:22:45Which reminds me I should probably get back to work.
00:22:58Thanks for coming by
00:23:00and
00:23:02getting me out of my head for a bit.
00:23:05Anytime.
00:23:17Later, dude.
00:23:25As I left the house,
00:23:27Max continued his battle with the blank page.
00:23:32I couldn't help wondering if I'd ever see him again.
00:23:36Well,
00:23:37I guess I could maybe do something about that.
00:23:49I need more info to work with
00:23:51before Miss Von Klimt gets back,
00:23:52but how do I ask Max to hang out
00:23:54without giving him the wrong idea?
00:23:56He's supposed to date her, not me.
00:24:03Reading by the pool.
00:24:05That's platonic.
00:24:07Thanks for having me over today.
00:24:09I'd love to return the favor.
00:24:10Come and read by my pool tomorrow.
00:24:17What am I thinking?
00:24:18Max goes to red carpet events
00:24:20and lives in a mansion.
00:24:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:24:25He's responding.
00:24:26Please let me down gently, Max.
00:24:28My fragile heart can't take it.
00:24:33Oh, I really needed this.
00:24:36I got the big house, you know,
00:24:38but no pool.
00:24:39You're welcome anytime.
00:24:41I mean, I'm sure it's cool with Miss Von Klimt.
00:24:44It's her house.
00:24:57Oh, still at it, I see.
00:25:03Sorry.
00:25:05Creepy, right?
00:25:06We can be creepy together.
00:25:14You're actually reading it?
00:25:16Are you joking?
00:25:17I can't put it down.
00:25:19It's like the sexiest book I've ever read.
00:25:21Hey, where do you get your ideas?
00:25:23Probably not where you think.
00:25:26My love life's pretty unexciting.
00:25:29Non-existent, actually.
00:25:31I find that hard to believe.
00:25:33You didn't know me growing up.
00:25:35I was an ugly duckling.
00:25:37It was easier making my characters fall in love
00:25:40than actually risking it myself.
00:25:44Well, Lisa,
00:25:46you're not an ugly duckling anymore.
00:25:50I think you should come out of your shell.
00:25:53Hmm.
00:25:55So, any other thoughts about the book?
00:25:58Yeah, one more.
00:26:00The next book you release,
00:26:02make it under your name.
00:26:04You are too good.
00:26:06I'll think about it.
00:26:09Hey, can you get my bag for me?
00:26:21Be cool, Lisa.
00:26:22You're just rubbing some lotion
00:26:24on your hero crush's back.
00:26:26Think of Miss Von Klimt.
00:26:44So, Max, I was wondering,
00:26:48the love interest in your last novel,
00:26:51is she based on your ex?
00:26:58Shoot!
00:26:59I said the wrong thing.
00:27:01Jesus, Lisa,
00:27:02you must be the worst dating coach in history.
00:27:08Yeah, I guess what I don't post online,
00:27:10it still comes out in my writing.
00:27:17She's based on my ex-wife.
00:27:20Very different time.
00:27:24It's hard to even imagine myself having a
00:27:27romantic bone in my body,
00:27:29because all I do is write
00:27:33and avoid writing.
00:27:36Can I ask what happened?
00:27:38I thought she was my pixie,
00:27:43manic dream girl,
00:27:45but she was just manic.
00:27:49She was aggressive.
00:27:51She was type A,
00:27:53workaholic,
00:27:54obsessed with status and money.
00:27:57Sounds like Miss Von Klimt.
00:27:59Is that your type?
00:28:02It used to be, yeah.
00:28:09But I'm an introvert, you know?
00:28:12I would much rather prefer
00:28:14a pool day like this
00:28:16than some random L.A. party.
00:28:19If I decide to remarry,
00:28:22it's going to be someone
00:28:23who's like me.
00:28:27Maybe even a writer.
00:28:34Oh, no.
00:28:35Today was supposed to be
00:28:36platonic abort.
00:28:37Abort!
00:28:39What's wrong, Lisa?
00:28:40I'm getting hot.
00:28:41Are you thirsty?
00:28:41I am so thirsty.
00:28:43Ah!
00:28:43Ah!
00:28:47Ah!
00:28:48Ah!
00:29:05You okay?
00:29:06Don't worry about that.
00:29:07That was an accident.
00:29:08Ah!
00:29:09Hey!
00:29:11That's so mean!
00:29:33You look pretty good for a prune.
00:29:44My phone.
00:29:53Jeez.
00:29:55Is she sidekick or something?
00:29:58Miss Von Klimt, hi.
00:30:01Any updates on Max?
00:30:02Thanks.
00:30:05Um.
00:30:10Who are you waving to?
00:30:12I just invited a friend over to swim.
00:30:14A fuck party?
00:30:15Show me.
00:30:16No!
00:30:17Of course not!
00:30:21Me likey.
00:30:22Just don't bang in my pool.
00:30:24I had it cleaned last week.
00:30:25So, what's happening with Max?
00:30:28I'm getting plenty of material.
00:30:30Oh, music to my ears.
00:30:32Poo-poos, too.
00:30:34I have good news as well.
00:30:36Got the contract all settled with Tony.
00:30:39And we are signing Max to EMU Publishing.
00:30:42That's amazing!
00:30:44I'll talk to you about it more when I see you.
00:30:46Poo-poos got a poo-poo.
00:30:47Poo-poos got a poo-poo.
00:30:50Poo-poos got a poo-poo.
00:30:53Poo-poos got a poo-poo.
00:30:54How about some dinner tonight?
00:30:56A no little spot by the beach.
00:30:59I don't normally go out, but this night feels special.
00:31:03If you ruin this for Ms. Von Klimt, your writing career is done for.
00:31:08What'd you say?
00:31:14Giselle's contract just came in.
00:31:16Looks good.
00:31:17Ball's in our court.
00:31:18Yeah, maybe I should read it myself.
00:31:20Come on.
00:31:21You don't trust me?
00:31:22Okay.
00:31:24But make sure that she doesn't turn my books into some Hollywood cash-crab franchise, okay?
00:31:30Hey, you're the boss, boss.
00:31:32Poo-poos got a poo-poo.
00:31:37Max peddled towards me with that same cheeky smirk he'd given me all day.
00:31:43If I didn't know better, I'd swear he wanted to kiss me.
00:31:48Lisa?
00:31:50Sorry about that.
00:31:51I had a business call.
00:31:53What are you writing?
00:31:57Max, stop!
00:31:59Is this your diary?
00:32:00Oh no, Max has my journal.
00:32:02How could I be so stupid?
00:32:13On second thought,
00:32:15I would not want anybody reading my diary.
00:32:21You never know when inspiration will strike.
00:32:31Have you felt inspired lately?
00:32:33Yes, I have.
00:32:35Maybe you're my muse.
00:32:36In all seriousness, though, it's nice spending time with another writer.
00:32:41Makes me feel like less of a weirdo.
00:32:44Weirdo?
00:32:45Max, you're one of the most famous authors in the world.
00:32:48It gets lonely.
00:33:01What's wrong?
00:33:02That food's amazing.
00:33:04Can I ask you a favor?
00:33:07Would you be willing to read my manuscript?
00:33:11Maybe you can help me write the ending.
00:33:15Me?
00:33:18I'm signing to EMU Publishing, so we're basically co-workers.
00:33:22And you're a fantastic writer.
00:33:24And you know my work.
00:33:26And you know that I'm struggling with this.
00:33:30I trust you, Lisa.
00:33:33You...
00:33:33trust me?
00:33:36Yeah.
00:33:39Should I not?
00:33:40You might not trust me if you know that I'm an undercover date doctor.
00:33:46I'd be honored to read it, Max.
00:33:50Thanks.
00:33:55It would mean a lot to me.
00:34:04After dinner, we can print it at the library.
00:34:10Stop by my place to read it.
00:34:12Your place?
00:34:13That's okay, isn't it?
00:34:15He can't really be trying to sleep with me, right?
00:34:18He just wants to give me his manuscript.
00:34:21Because if he does have other ideas, I'm not sure I'll be able to control myself.
00:34:28Check, please.
00:34:54Careful.
00:34:55Clumsy girl.
00:34:57I'm only clumsy around you.
00:34:59Is that right?
00:35:01Please, do not share this with anyone.
00:35:04The only people I want reading it are you and me.
00:35:08Okay?
00:35:09Thank you for trusting me.
00:35:17You make it easy.
00:35:19Max, they can't be...
00:35:29Oh, my God, Max.
00:35:30Oh, my God, Max.
00:35:35Oh, my God.
00:35:36Shh, shh, shh.
00:35:45Oh, my God.
00:35:49Oh, my God.
00:35:53Oh, my God.
00:35:56Oh, my God.
00:36:16Wow, Lisa, I don't want you.
00:36:19You're in jail.
00:36:30You're in jail.
00:37:15What have I done?
00:37:28Oh no, I'm at Max's place.
00:37:31Oh my gosh.
00:37:32Oh my gosh!
00:37:34I can't believe I slept with Max!
00:37:37Miss Von Klimt will murder me!
00:37:46Relax, Lisa.
00:37:47Max is famous.
00:37:48He probably has one night stands all the time.
00:37:50No reason he can't still fall for Miss Von Klimt.
00:37:54Lisa?
00:37:56What are you doing?
00:38:00Max, look, we don't have to talk about this.
00:38:03I'm a romance writer.
00:38:04I know what this is.
00:38:06What is this?
00:38:07Fun in the sun.
00:38:09Too much wine at dinner.
00:38:11One thing lit to another.
00:38:13It's not a big deal.
00:38:14I haven't slept with anyone, Lisa, since my wife left me.
00:38:20I want to see you again.
00:38:23And not just to get your notes.
00:38:36Me too.
00:38:40What's that?
00:38:53Giselle?
00:38:56What are you doing here?
00:39:00Miss Von Klimt?
00:39:01She's supposed to be out of town until Friday.
00:39:07Where's Spector?
00:39:09When Tony told me you were ready to sign the contract,
00:39:12I flew home early to personally deliver mimosas.
00:39:17Hope you're thirsty.
00:39:18Thanks, but it's not a very good time for me.
00:39:22What's wrong?
00:39:23You have company?
00:39:27Good thing I'm not the jealous type.
00:39:30Who's the lucky lady?
00:39:32Gentleman never tells.
00:39:36Thanks again.
00:39:38I'll see you at the signing.
00:39:39Cheers.
00:39:40Max!
00:39:41Go!
00:39:50Mimosas, anyone?
00:39:53Lisa?
00:40:21Giselle!
00:40:23You're home early.
00:40:24Did you have a sleepover with your fuck buddy last night?
00:40:27What was his name, by the way?
00:40:30He was just some guy from Tinder.
00:40:32Probably used a fake name anyway.
00:40:34Which was?
00:40:35Ma-
00:40:36Er-
00:40:38Jerry!
00:40:40Jerry McIntosh.
00:40:41Almost sounded like you were going to say Max.
00:40:45That's funny.
00:40:48What's going on with my guy anyways?
00:40:51No, I've been having the nastiest dreams about him.
00:40:56I saw him a few times while you were away.
00:40:58Everything's in my journal.
00:40:59Let me see!
00:41:01My handwriting's a mess.
00:41:03I'll retype it for you by tonight.
00:41:05Okay.
00:41:06Nice work.
00:41:08I'm sending half your bonus.
00:41:10There better be some juicy shit in there.
00:41:15Thanks, Miss Van Clemsen.
00:41:23Oh, what is up, hot stuff?
00:41:25Keep it in your pants for once.
00:41:27Oh, come on.
00:41:28Everything's going according to plan.
00:41:30I'll see you at the signing.
00:41:31Oh, I will be there, beautiful.
00:41:45I'm getting carpal tunnel.
00:41:46This is like the longest contract I've ever signed.
00:41:49Hey, for the biggest check.
00:41:50Huh?
00:41:54Well, you just bought yourself a bestseller.
00:41:58Let's toast.
00:42:00Let's toast.
00:42:07You're awfully quiet today, Giselle.
00:42:09You know I'm thrilled.
00:42:11I'm your biggest fan.
00:42:13I was just thinking about your book that I finished last night.
00:42:17I was wondering if I should read it again before I return it to the library.
00:42:24I love libraries, but I wouldn't take you as the type.
00:42:27Oh, I love the smell of old books.
00:42:30Me too.
00:42:30No.
00:42:33Ha-ha.
00:42:35Hey.
00:42:38See you.
00:42:43To the thorn tree.
00:42:45To the thorn tree.
00:42:46Cheers.
00:42:50Well, when do we get to see the manuscript?
00:42:52I'm dying to read it.
00:42:54Just waiting for notes from a trusted reader.
00:42:56Really?
00:42:56Who?
00:42:57Don't worry.
00:42:58I'll send it soon.
00:43:03Well, that should get going.
00:43:05So, Tony, thanks for the champagne.
00:43:06You've got it, buddy.
00:43:07And I'll see you.
00:43:08Bye, Max.
00:43:10We'll be in touch.
00:43:15We signed, babe.
00:43:16We are almost there.
00:43:17And if everything else goes according to plan, you're going to be out of bankruptcy.
00:43:20And we are going to be filthy, stinking rich.
00:43:24You always know what to say to a girl, Tony.
00:43:26Well, I also know what to do to a girl, too.
00:43:32How's the nurse working out, Mom?
00:43:33Nice to have someone get the wine glasses down from the top shelf for me.
00:43:37I am so glad I can finally afford someone for you.
00:43:40Thank you, sugar.
00:43:41Just don't spend all your bonus on me.
00:43:45Got to go.
00:43:46Love you.
00:43:51Miss Von Klimt, hi.
00:43:54Max?
00:43:56Am I interrupting something?
00:43:58No.
00:43:59But I, uh...
00:44:03So, can I come in?
00:44:05Resist, Lisa.
00:44:06Miss Von Klimt sees Max in here.
00:44:07I'm dead meat.
00:44:18At least I'll die happy.
00:44:20Wind Susan in here.
00:44:26Brough.
00:44:431967.
00:44:44A few minutes.
00:44:45In this way,
00:44:47No.
00:44:48By the way,
00:45:15Max's car? What's he doing here?
00:45:22I finished the manuscript. It might just be your best book yet.
00:45:27That means a lot's coming from you. What do I do about the ending?
00:45:37The main character goes through so much heartbreak. He has a choice at the end. To live in pain or
00:45:43to move on. To write the final chapter, why not consider how you feel?
00:45:48Do you think you'll find love again? Or not?
00:45:53I never thought I would even trust a woman after Heather cheated on me. But now, I'm seeing some light
00:46:05shine through the dark clouds.
00:46:08Maybe you. I mean, James. You should get a happy ending. Give the readers some hope.
00:46:18Max! Max!
00:46:22Oh my God! Oh my God! Giselle's home!
00:46:26Are you guys friends?
00:46:28We are, but I just don't want her to find out about us yet.
00:46:31Why not?
00:46:33Because...
00:46:35You're a private person. It's none of her business.
00:46:39You're sweet.
00:46:45Lisa! Is Max in there?
00:46:53Max! What are you doing here?
00:46:58Discussing his manuscript.
00:47:03Lisa gives great notes.
00:47:06Well, actually, I'm glad you're here. Ocean Vuong's having a reading tonight. Are you free?
00:47:12I love Ocean Vuong!
00:47:15You should come with.
00:47:17Actually, Lisa has other plans. Too bad. We'll miss you.
00:47:22No.
00:47:42Are you sure you don't want to get a drink with Ocean? I mean, I was tempted.
00:47:46Ocean's a sweetheart, but I'm not much of a going out girl.
00:47:50I'd much rather stay in and curl up with a good book.
00:47:54I don't know. You seemed pretty cozy at that industry event the other night.
00:47:57Because I'm good at my job.
00:47:59I'm a bookworm, Max. That is why I run a publishing company.
00:48:04Yeah, but didn't you inherit that company?
00:48:06What's your point?
00:48:08Okay, what's your favorite book?
00:48:10I'd have to say Wuthering Heights. It always makes me cry.
00:48:14Wuthering Heights?
00:48:15What? You don't like it?
00:48:16I've just been hearing a lot about that book lately. It's actually one of my favorites.
00:48:20It makes me cry.
00:48:24It's getting really cold outside. Do you want to come in for a coffee?
00:48:30Um...
00:48:31Yeah. Yeah, sure.
00:48:35Sorry.
00:48:43I know it's worked. I can't watch.
00:48:51I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression, Giselle.
00:48:54I like you. And we have a lot of similar interests.
00:48:57I misread the situation, too.
00:49:00I like you, too.
00:49:02I'm seeing someone.
00:49:04And I really like her.
00:49:05And I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:49:08Maybe we can just be friends.
00:49:10I mean, we work together. It's a lot less complicated that way.
00:49:13Sure.
00:49:14I'd like that.
00:49:16Okay.
00:49:18Well, I gotta...
00:49:19I gotta get going.
00:49:20Have a good night, and good luck with that girl.
00:49:23Yeah. Thanks.
00:49:26Seeing someone?
00:49:28If it's that mousy little Lisa, I'm gonna feed that bitch rat poison.
00:49:33That homewrecking whore has outstayed her welcome.
00:49:36Big time.
00:49:40Max and Giselle kissed.
00:49:42So what? That's a good thing.
00:49:44Why am I being so weird about it?
00:49:50Can we talk?
00:49:54Thanks so much for all your advice with Max.
00:49:57It's been working wonders.
00:49:58How'd it go last night?
00:50:00Let's just say I think I'll be handling things on my own from here on out.
00:50:04That's great.
00:50:05Yeah.
00:50:06I'm sending the rest of your bonus now.
00:50:09Pack your bags.
00:50:10Your car arrives in an hour.
00:50:16What?
00:50:17What did you think you were gonna move in?
00:50:19I'm rich, Lisa.
00:50:20I'm not looking for a roommate.
00:50:22I thought I'd have more time.
00:50:24For what?
00:50:25I never saw the Hollywood sign.
00:50:28Overrated.
00:50:29Pack your bags.
00:50:31Your car is gonna be here in an hour.
00:50:34Relax, Poo Poo.
00:50:35I'm coming.
00:50:37Take the hint.
00:50:38Go back to Indiana and forget all about Max.
00:50:41He's in a Miss Von Klimt now.
00:50:43We were never meant to be.
00:50:46I'm reading the sequel.
00:50:48Unless we are.
00:50:49What do I do?
00:50:50No!
00:50:53I don't know who this is.
00:50:54I don't know who this is.
00:50:54No!
00:50:54No!
00:50:56No.
00:51:07No!
00:51:11No!
00:51:14No!
00:51:17No!
00:51:20Almost to the airport.
00:51:28Can I change the destination?
00:51:34Come on, Max, be home.
00:51:41Lisa.
00:51:44What's the matter?
00:51:47I...
00:51:49I...
00:51:54Hey.
00:51:56Just breathe.
00:51:58Calm down.
00:52:00You're with me now.
00:52:01Everything's gonna be just fine.
00:52:04I...
00:52:09Shh.
00:52:32That bitch better not have stopped for tacos on my dime.
00:52:35Wait.
00:52:36I know that address.
00:52:48Max's house?
00:52:50Oh.
00:52:51She's dead.
00:53:03I should go.
00:53:05Or I'll miss my flight.
00:53:06I just came to say goodbye.
00:53:08I didn't expect all of this.
00:53:14Maybe it sounds crazy, Lisa, but I'm falling for you.
00:53:20You can stay here with me as long as you want.
00:53:30I'll put in ramps for her wheelchair.
00:53:38What about you and Miss Von Klimt?
00:53:40I saw you kissing last night.
00:53:42Well, then you must have missed me letting her down easy because you are the only one that I want.
00:53:51Let me think about it, all right?
00:53:55Take as much time as you need.
00:54:08Real smooth, Max.
00:54:15I have to admit, I'm curious what she's working on next.
00:54:18One little pee couldn't hurt.
00:54:46What the hell is this?
00:54:51Max, I can explain.
00:54:52You're writing about us.
00:54:54About me.
00:54:55I told you, my journal's private.
00:54:57Then why does it look like you're writing your next romance novel?
00:55:00It does.
00:55:02You know, I don't want my personal life splattered around.
00:55:07Max, it's just my diary.
00:55:10I'd never dream of publishing it.
00:55:12I cannot believe I fell for your ugly duckling story.
00:55:16Just admit it.
00:55:18You are using me for material.
00:55:20I can't tell Max the truth or it'll mean ratting out Miss Von Klimt.
00:55:23And that means losing my publishing contract.
00:55:25What do I do?
00:55:31Your silence says everything.
00:55:34Max, I never meant to hurt you.
00:55:36Don't you have a plane to catch?
00:55:38But Max.
00:55:39We are done.
00:55:41Get out, Lisa.
00:55:44And if I ever see this printed, you'll be hearing from my attorneys.
00:55:56I'm so sorry, Max.
00:55:59Max.
00:56:01Max.
00:56:03Max.
00:56:12Need a ride, skink?
00:56:20What are you doing here?
00:56:22Bitch, what are you doing here?
00:56:25You're supposed to be at the airport right now.
00:56:27But no.
00:56:29You just had to stop by Max's for a little last quickie, didn't you?
00:56:33I can't explain.
00:56:35Now, I brought you out here for a reason.
00:56:37And that reason is not fucking Max behind my back.
00:56:41I trusted you.
00:56:43I'm so sorry I let you down.
00:56:46Max just broke up with me.
00:56:48You broke up?
00:56:51Max must be vulnerable.
00:56:53Maybe I'm still in the game after all.
00:56:57I'll forgive you.
00:56:59If you leave right now, you can keep the money and the publishing deal.
00:57:03But I never want to see your face at LA again.
00:57:07Got it?
00:57:08Okay.
00:57:10Now beat it.
00:57:20Damn it, Lisa.
00:57:21I said to get out of here.
00:57:22We're through.
00:57:25Uh, Giselle.
00:57:27What are you doing here?
00:57:28I guess this is a bad time.
00:57:32Wait.
00:57:33I could use somebody to talk to.
00:57:39Thanks, Giselle.
00:57:41I don't think alcohol can solve this problem, though.
00:57:44Couldn't hurt.
00:58:02So, what happened with Lisa?
00:58:04She was using me for her next romance novel.
00:58:10I found her journal.
00:58:13I should have known it was too good to be true.
00:58:15She's the woman you told me about?
00:58:19I'm so sorry.
00:58:22No, Lisa's always been like this.
00:58:24She's a succubus.
00:58:27Just using men for her perverted novels.
00:58:38Now, I may not know what to say to make you feel better, but...
00:58:43I do know something that might distract you.
00:59:11I have just returned from a visit to my landlord.
00:59:14The solitary neighbor that I shall be troubled with.
00:59:19This is certainly a beautiful country.
00:59:25In all England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the
00:59:35stir of society.
01:00:01Are you going to mope around in your PJs forever?
01:00:05I'm a writer, Mom.
01:00:07I'm a writer, Mom.
01:00:07PJs are my uniform.
01:00:10When are you going to tell me what happened?
01:00:13How about getting out of the house?
01:00:15I thought we got Teresa so you didn't have to be around so much.
01:00:19Your Tinder matches are just waiting for a time and place.
01:00:23I don't want a Tinder date, Mom.
01:00:25Just leave me alone.
01:00:26Please.
01:00:27See what I'm dealing with, Teresa.
01:00:29Goes to L.A. for two weeks.
01:00:31Comes back a drama queen.
01:00:37MK Roth's Thorn Tree tops Time's bestseller list.
01:00:41Congratulations, Max.
01:00:46Miss Von Klimt?
01:00:52Looks like she finally got him.
01:01:03Another week topping the bestseller list.
01:01:06We're breaking records, Max.
01:01:09I'm just glad that people like it.
01:01:11Like it?
01:01:12They love it.
01:01:14You might win the National Book Award.
01:01:21You've been drinking a lot lately.
01:01:23Everything okay?
01:01:27Well, I know something that will cheer you up.
01:01:31I went to the doctor today.
01:01:34Guess what?
01:01:36What?
01:01:37I'm pregnant.
01:01:41You're pregnant?
01:01:42Mm-hmm.
01:01:43But how?
01:01:44How?
01:01:44We're using protection.
01:01:46Accidents happen, right?
01:01:48You are going to be such a great father.
01:01:51I can't wait to be Mrs. Roth.
01:01:56So you're keeping it?
01:01:57Why wouldn't I?
01:01:59I want this to work, Max.
01:02:02I love you.
01:02:16Well, whatever you want to do, I will support it.
01:02:26Shihara never loved anyone like the werewolf king.
01:02:30Their days were filled with long talks, reading, strolls around the castle, their nights with passionate lovemaking.
01:02:37Shihara had never been so happy.
01:02:43I can't write romance with a broken heart.
01:02:46This is torture.
01:02:48Not now, Mom.
01:02:51I thought a little gift might improve your mood.
01:02:55Thanks, Mom.
01:02:56You didn't have to.
01:02:57Your favorite author.
01:02:58Everyone's talking about the new book.
01:03:01It's in Oprah's book club.
01:03:03Surprised I haven't seen you reading it.
01:03:07I just didn't have the time.
01:03:09Thanks, Mom.
01:03:34As James perused the library, you saw a young woman in glasses crying over Wuthering Heights.
01:03:41She felt his presence, wiping her eyes as she returned his gaze.
01:03:50James had lost the game of love, but that didn't mean he never went again.
01:03:57A happy ending.
01:03:59He took my note.
01:04:03Maybe there's still hope for me.
01:04:06Millionaire author M.K. Roth to WED, CEO of EMU Publishing.
01:04:12They're getting married?
01:04:36All the skimming around.
01:04:39You've got me so horny for you, man.
01:04:48By this time next week, we're going to be rich because of that brilliant contract you made.
01:05:03Once you guys get married, the book rights transfer to you.
01:05:06The royalties alone are going to solve your company's bankruptcy.
01:05:10Then we'll take Max to Hollywood, whether he likes it or not.
01:05:14The studios are dying for a movie version of the Thorn Tree.
01:05:18Why not a trilogy?
01:05:19A TV show, crypto, video games.
01:05:21The possibilities are endless.
01:05:24We just have to keep our secret a little longer.
01:05:27I'll get rid of Max as soon as possible.
01:05:30Good.
01:05:31I hate sneaking around.
01:05:32It would have been easier if that bitch Lisa didn't almost fuck it up.
01:05:37I guess you get what you pay for.
01:05:39What do you mean?
01:05:40Oh, I didn't tell you?
01:05:42I've been paying her with her own money.
01:05:45I've withheld her royalties for years.
01:05:49You are so bad.
01:06:00What is it, Honey Bunch?
01:06:03Mom, I think I have to tell you about what happened in L.A.
01:06:13I couldn't tell Max why I was really writing about him.
01:06:15Now he's marrying Miss Von Klimt, and he probably doesn't even know that she hired me to help her seduce
01:06:20him.
01:06:21Sounds like you need to tell him.
01:06:23Miss Von Klimt said if I ever go back to L.A., she'll cancel my publishing contract.
01:06:27We'll lose your nerves.
01:06:29Maybe a lot more.
01:06:30Look, Miss Von Bitch was born rich.
01:06:33She doesn't know anything but running her daddy's company.
01:06:36You were born in the middle of nowhere, with a mom in a wheelchair, and somehow you still became a
01:06:42big author.
01:06:43You could take that Barbie any day of the week.
01:06:46But Max stumped me.
01:06:49What if he really does love Miss Von Klimt?
01:06:51You'll never know unless you talk to him.
01:06:54Brave.
01:06:55Like Sheehara, the elf princess.
01:06:58You're not that nerdy girl you were in high school.
01:07:01You are a badass bitch.
01:07:04You're right.
01:07:06But can I really break up a wedding?
01:07:08Hell yes, you can.
01:07:11You can.
01:07:12You can.
01:07:17You can.
01:07:17You can.
01:07:20Hey.
01:07:21You look great, pal.
01:07:24I can't believe I'm getting married again.
01:07:27Don't you think it's too soon?
01:07:29Not with the right lady.
01:07:32I'm not so sure about that.
01:07:38Don't tell me you're getting cold feet.
01:07:41What is this about?
01:07:44Max, do not tell me it was about that English smut writer.
01:07:48Hey, men would kill to be what you're saying.
01:07:52You know that.
01:08:05Elvin and Lust?
01:08:07Why are you reading this crap?
01:08:10Isn't it bad luck to see each other before the wedding day?
01:08:14Netflix called.
01:08:15They want to adapt The Thorn Tree as a dating show.
01:08:20The ultimatum meets Vanderpump Rules.
01:08:24What do you think?
01:08:28I'm not whoring out my work.
01:08:30Stop asking me about Hollywood deals.
01:08:33I'm sorry.
01:08:34I just got excited.
01:08:36We'll talk after the ceremony.
01:08:46I made it.
01:08:49Thank God for book talk.
01:08:52Lisa?
01:08:53No, she ruined everything.
01:08:56Tony, hi.
01:08:57Yeah?
01:08:58Hey, I know this sounds crazy, but I really need to talk to Max.
01:09:01Do you know where I can find him?
01:09:02He's about to get married, Lisa, so...
01:09:03Yeah.
01:09:05That's kind of why I'm here.
01:09:06Okay, he doesn't want to see you.
01:09:08He and Giselle are very happy.
01:09:09No, but he doesn't know the truth.
01:09:11Giselle hired me to help her seduce him.
01:09:15You're talking like a crazy person, all right?
01:09:17Go back to the loony bin, now.
01:09:19Aren't you Max's friend?
01:09:20Don't you want to hear me out?
01:09:22Nope.
01:09:23Come on.
01:09:24Let's go.
01:09:25Wait.
01:09:27You're in on this, too.
01:09:29What are you two planning to do to Max?
01:09:32Stupid little bitch.
01:09:33You're going to ruin this entire plan for me.
01:09:35What plan?
01:09:36I want you.
01:09:42What the hell's happening here, Tony?
01:09:45I'm so sorry.
01:09:45Lisa.
01:09:46Hey.
01:09:49What is happening?
01:09:50I told you to keep your man-stealing ass out of L.A.
01:09:55Miss von Klimt, think very clearly about what you say next.
01:10:00You know what I can do to you.
01:10:03Giselle.
01:10:05What happened between you two?
01:10:06Don't talk to her, Max.
01:10:08She is just looking to use you for more material for her books.
01:10:12Isn't that right, Lisa?
01:10:15Lisa, is that true?
01:10:16Come on, Lisa.
01:10:17Stand up for yourself.
01:10:18It's now or never.
01:10:32Giselle hired me to help her seduce you.
01:10:34What you read in my journal wasn't a book.
01:10:36At least not one I planned on.
01:10:37They were notes to share with Miss von Klimt.
01:10:42So what happened between us was fake?
01:10:44No.
01:10:45I just wanted to be a good date, doctor.
01:10:48I was as shocked as anyone when I was the one who started to fall in love with you.
01:10:51Oh, you fell in love with me.
01:10:53Of course, Max.
01:10:56And I don't know what Miss von Klimt has told you, but I don't think she's marrying you for
01:10:59the right reasons.
01:11:00Because Tony seems to be a part of her plan.
01:11:02She is babbling like a psycho!
01:11:05Somebody call the police!
01:11:07I mean, to ruin our wedding day!
01:11:09Max, please believe me.
01:11:13I love you.
01:11:15Don't marry her.
01:11:16LAPD!
01:11:17There is a raving lunatic trying to ruin my wedding!
01:11:21And you know what?
01:11:22I'm gonna bring her right over here, right...
01:11:25Answer me this!
01:11:26Is that baby mine?
01:11:39It's mine!
01:11:41Giselle and I had the idea to screw you out of your book rights by adding some hidden clauses
01:11:45in the contract.
01:11:47She marries you.
01:11:49She controls everything.
01:11:51Tony, we have known each other for years.
01:11:55Why would you betray me?
01:11:57EMU Publishing was going bankrupt.
01:12:00Giselle needed money.
01:12:01She convinced me that I needed some, too.
01:12:04But honestly, I didn't care about that.
01:12:08All I wanted was her.
01:12:09Oh, you sappy piece of shit!
01:12:12You fucked us!
01:12:14I love you!
01:12:15And the baby!
01:12:16Yeah?
01:12:17We hate you!
01:12:18Hey!
01:12:19It's safe to say this wedding is over.
01:12:22I'll see you two lovebirds in court.
01:12:30Can you ever forgive me for doubting you?
01:12:33I don't know what came over me.
01:12:34I was a mess after our fight.
01:12:38We can talk about it over dinner.
01:12:40I know a little spot by the beach.
01:12:46You are finished!
01:12:47Lisa, I am canceling our contract.
01:12:50And I am keeping the Heidi Brushfire name.
01:12:53Yeah, I'll write all the next books myself.
01:12:56A monkey could write that trash!
01:13:04Oh, my gosh!
01:13:06Get up!
01:13:07Baby!
01:13:08Baby!
01:13:09Get up!
01:13:16Don't worry about Giselle.
01:13:18I will get you a new publishing deal.
01:13:20You just have to trust me.
01:13:24Do you trust me?
01:13:34I love you, Lisa.
01:13:41Happy to present the author formerly known as Heidi Brushfire reading from her first novel under her real name,
01:13:50which has already topped the New York Times bestseller list,
01:13:53ladies and gentlemen,
01:13:56Lisa Brown!
01:13:57Yay!
01:13:58Yay!
01:14:05I sat at my laptop in PJs,
01:14:07writing a sex scene between a werewolf king and an elven princess.
01:14:11When the phone rang,
01:14:13little did I know my life was about to change forever.
01:14:24I love the book.
01:14:26Why did you decide to publish under your own name?
01:14:28My boyfriend was very encouraging.
01:14:31Some of you might know MK Roth.
01:14:34Aww!
01:14:36Max started his own publishing company after some bad industry experiences.
01:14:40His next book's coming out later this year.
01:14:47So, you didn't write the new Elven Lust book?
01:14:50It totally sucks.
01:14:52The Heidi Brushfire name belongs to my old publisher.
01:14:55I heard the CEO writes the books herself now.
01:14:57Guess she must have plenty of time now that she's bankrupt.
01:15:02I have a question.
