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
00:00:20for 10 years?
00:00:21Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way
00:00:26back.
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.
00:00:52The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:58I'll always love my son, but he's a bully and he learned it from the best in the business, his
00:01:03grandmother.
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.
00:01:12All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:15But her career's hanging by a thread. I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:21You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:25She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:33I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last. And I'd cherish her like no
00:01:39other 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
00:01:47her.
00:01:47This was the last one.
00:01:51Mom, Daniel. What'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, ugh.
00:02:08But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:13Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:17Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts. Then I will be free.
00:02:24Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:26Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent. I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:34I 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?
00:02:48Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:50But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:02:53No! I want to eat now!
00:03:05You always know the spot.
00:03:07He doesn't listen.
00:03:09Daniel, please.
00:03:10I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:18I 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.
00:03:26I don't want 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!
00:03:35Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:39You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:50I 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. I want a divorce.
00:04:18Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:21Huh?
00:04:23I want a...
00:04:26I want chicken nuggets! Give 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.
00:04:41Seriously?
00:04:42Your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:04:45I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:48What is this?
00:04:50Another contract?
00:04:51How 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.
00:04:58Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:01Honestly, I am really at my capacity.
00:05:04I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:09Pull my weight?
00:05:10Yeah, 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.
00:05:32The 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.
00:05:40After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:05:48At 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, how 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.
00:06:08But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:12I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:19I am, mom, and I promise very soon everything's going to change.
00:06:29That's wonderful, dear.
00:06:30You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:33Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:06:35I gotta go.
00:06:36Love you.
00:06:39What is it, mom?
00:06:41Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:43Our favorite leading man.
00:06:45Come on.
00:06:52Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:00Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:09All right, cut.
00:07:10That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:13We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:16Sabrina was a rising star.
00:07:19I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:23Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:26If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:48We all came to the new movie.
00:07:59We'll be back here.
00:07:59We'll be back here.
00:07:59You destroyed me, Preston.
00:08:04There's nothing left.
00:08:17Sabrina, don't!
00:08:20Stay back.
00:08:22I mean it.
00:08:23Sabrina, don't do this.
00:08:27Just...
00:08:30Just give me your hand.
00:08:43No!
00:08:45Daniel!
00:08:46I got you.
00:08:48No! Don't let me go!
00:08:51I won't ever let you go.
00:08:57I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:01Nobody sees the real me.
00:09:02I see you, Sabrina.
00:09:04I see all of you.
00:09:06And you're never gonna be alone again.
00:09:16Good to see ya!
00:09:18Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:09:19Oh, too long.
00:09:20Look at you!
00:09:22Oh, 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. Are you kidding?
00:09:28Oh, Daniel, Preston's gonna stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:09:32Oh, there he is!
00:09:34The assistant!
00:09:35I'll tell you what, there'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?
00:09:44Stop!
00:09:45I can't believe my wife would 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.
00:09:54Daniel!
00:09:55Oh.
00:09:56Don't embarrass me.
00:09:57No, it's fine.
00:09:58I'm sorry.
00:09:58Whoa, you?
00:09:59Played Bret Steele in your action spy movie?
00:10:03He's not just tough, he's Bret Steele tough!
00:10:06You think, you know?
00:10:06My 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 are you saying, 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.
00:10:36But once our divorce is finalized, I 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 hill.
00:10:54Ooh, careful.
00:10:55You all right?
00:10:58I'm still starving.
00:11:00Make me some food.
00:11:02Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:11:04Stew?
00:11:06Ew.
00:11:07What 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?
00:11:22What?
00:11:23For 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.
00:11:31Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:11:34I 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.
00:11:40You'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.
00:11:45Please, 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 treat.
00:11:58Here 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.
00:12:04I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:12:06Okay, go.
00:12:06So.
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:09Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut, so.
00:12:14Anyways.
00:12:15Come on, Ben.
00:12:16Let's go.
00:12:17Let's go.
00:12:18Gotcha.
00:12:18There we go.
00:12:20Oh.
00:12:21There's Paps.
00:12:23You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:12:25Last time.
00:12:27I promise.
00:12:29You're right.
00:12:30It is the last time.
00:12:33Hey, guys.
00:12:36Hi.
00:12:37Jackson.
00:12:43Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:12:47Contract'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.
00:12:59After 10 years of heartbreak, I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:13:20Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:13:22She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:13:27Sabrina Donovan.
00:13:28I could scream.
00:13:29I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:13:31Preston Eastwood.
00:13:32I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:13:36Oh, gee.
00:13:36I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:13:39A scene that I wrote.
00:13:40Uncredited, of course.
00:13:41Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:13:44Wait.
00:13:44Are you two dating?
00:13:45Oh, well, actually.
00:13:47This is totally a date.
00:13:49All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:13:56Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:13:59You're not really a part of my brand.
00:14:01Your brand?
00:14:02It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:14:05You get it.
00:14:06Right?
00:14:14So, you two are a thing?
00:14:16Well, I...
00:14:17Oh, it's okay, babe.
00:14:18We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:14:29This is so going viral.
00:14:30I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:14:32It looks like more than dating.
00:14:34Is this your son?
00:14:35I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:14:38Don't be silly.
00:14:39You 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.
00:14:47But Preston is awesome.
00:14:50He's an action spy.
00:14:52I wish he was my dad.
00:14:54My own son doesn't respect me.
00:14:57But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:14:59when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood afterparty
00:15:02with a call girl.
00:15:03It's okay, buddy.
00:15:04Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:15:06If you want me around, I'm in.
00:15:09That is if Mom's school with it.
00:15:12Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:15:13Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:15:15Preston, what are you doing?
00:15:19Come on.
00:15:20Let's give him a show.
00:15:36Now that's a Hollywood couple.
00:15:41I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:15:44Sabrina will end up on top,
00:15:46and you will end up with nothing.
00:15:50Daniel!
00:15:52You know, it's probably for the best.
00:15:54From the sound of it,
00:15:56your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:15:58Daniel, he's here?
00:16:00Did he see us?
00:16:01Is he looking over here?
00:16:02Fuck, that's not good.
00:16:03I was just doing that for publicity.
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,
00:16:10Sabrina 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.
00:16:18What do I do?
00:16:20Well, that's it then.
00:16:22Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:24I need to leverage her relationship with Preston,
00:16:26with the tabloids.
00:16:27I'm sure you'll spin 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.
00:16:38So you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:16:42I know the contract is over,
00:16:43but 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. He has to understand.
00:16:52This is Hollywood. It'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.
00:17:08All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:11Are you going somewhere?
00:17:14Honey!
00:17:15Oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:16We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:19Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:21A vacation?
00:17:22Finally. You'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.
00:17:34Whoa. Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:17:38That's fine. Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:17:41Just like any good husband would.
00:17:43Oh, I see. Is it me?
00:17:46Is 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.
00:17:52You know what?
00:17:53Maybe I should go.
00:17:54I 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.
00:18:03And clearly she wants you.
00:18:05I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:18:06Daniel, wait.
00:18:09I won't ever let you go.
00:18:11He won't leave. He promised.
00:18:13It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:15We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:18I'm gonna go back.
00:18:22Daniel!
00:18:26Please.
00:18:27Better than yours.
00:18:29Yeah.
00:18:31Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:18:32Oh, good. You're up.
00:18:36Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:18:41It's fun.
00:18:43Why 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.
00:18:57Oh.
00:18:57Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:01Listen, Matt, I...
00:19:03I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:19:06You can trust me.
00:19:09Listen, I think you're...
00:19:11You need to go right now.
00:19:13All right.
00:19:14Oh, hey.
00:19:16Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:19:18When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:24I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:19:28Just ignore him. He 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.
00:19:33Daniel, 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...
00:19:48I don't think I should be alone.
00:19:52That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:19:58Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:20:04My God.
00:20:06God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:10Are you really gonna ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:14No, it's not like that. I...
00:20:17What?
00:20:19You know what? Fine.
00:20:22You two look great together.
00:20:26Daniel, I...
00:20:37And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:20:44Um...
00:20:48I 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.
00:21:02Please, Daniel.
00:21:15I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:22If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:21:25I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:21:40Look at her now.
00:21:42Playing house for another man.
00:21:44If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:05There he is.
00:22:06God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:22:09Man.
00:22:09No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:12Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:14Hmm.
00:22:16Got some.
00:22:18Yeah.
00:22:19What do you need?
00:22:20Oh, oh.
00:22:20Yeah, there you go.
00:22:22I'd offer you some of this shit, but...
00:22:24I doubt you'd like it.
00:22:25Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:22:27Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:22:33Hey, uh...
00:22:34You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:22:38You're not?
00:22:39A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:22:42Why would I be threatened by that?
00:22:46What?
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, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:06And it's unfair!
00:23:08That's a shame, huh?
00:23:09You know what?
00:23:09Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:11Here we go.
00:23:12Ooh.
00:23:14No, it's...
00:23:15Not to play with that.
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.
00:23:33Yeah?
00:23:34What's that supposed to mean?
00:23:36You're so annoying!
00:23:40Don'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?
00:23:49He's a Donovan, not some pathetic manservant like you.
00:23:53You're not the house.
00:23:54You just shot me.
00:23:58Call 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!
00:24:03I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever!
00:24:06I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:24:09Ouch!
00:24:09I mean, you just hurt your son.
00:24:12So why don't you make this little vacay of yours permanent?
00:24:14Maybe it will be.
00:24:15But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:24:19You?
00:24:20Man of the house?
00:24:21Please.
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 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 agents begging for scraps.
00:24:35I'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.
00:24:44No, I'm not going!
00:24:46Preston's way cooler than you!
00:24:49Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:25:13You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:25:17What was that?
00:25:21Let's go!
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 would 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?
00:25:38I didn't?
00:25:39Ew!
00:25:39What 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!
00:25:48Grow up!
00:25:49Remember we're in the public eye?
00:25:51What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:25:54What?
00:25:54Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:25:58Maybe I should go while I'm sorry.
00:26:00No!
00:26:00Oh my God!
00:26:02He's lying!
00:26:04You're a monster!
00:26:06And 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!
00:26:19Soon you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:26:23She's mine now, loser.
00:26:34Hello?
00:26:359-1-1.
00:26:35What's your emergency?
00:26:36I'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 gonna have to keep you here overnight, because we're
00:26:55to pump you with liquids.
00:26:57To be honest, that's...
00:26:58I could use a break from home.
00:27:00Trouble with the missus?
00:27:04Uh...
00:27:04Yeah.
00:27:05Pretty obvious.
00:27:07Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:10I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:27:15With Preston Eastwood.
00:27:17True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:27:20I've been obsessed with him since breaking the ice.
00:27:23You said, um, a couple?
00:27:26I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official!
00:27:31She 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, ten 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, and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:07Ugh!
00:28:09Fuck!
00:28:11I need to 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.
00:28:28It needs the right producer.
00:28:29I 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?
00:28:44What?
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.
00:28:53He's just a friend.
00:28:56Yeah.
00:28:57That's what you want to call it?
00:28:59I...
00:29:00I just...
00:29:02I'm sorry.
00:29:03I...
00:29:04Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing a line.
00:29:11It is what it is.
00:29:13But I mean...
00:29:14You 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.
00:29:26But...
00:29:26I just...
00:29:27I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:29:32Seriously.
00:29:34I...
00:29:34I care about you.
00:29:40I'm no man.
00:29:42I've known you for 14 years.
00:29:44I know when you're angry.
00:29:45Really?
00:29:46I didn't think you paid attention.
00:29:48I pay attention?
00:29:50Since when do I not pay attention?
00:29:53She signed the papers without reading them.
00:29:56That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:29:57A headline.
00:29:59A performance.
00:30:03Sabrina...
00:30:05Sabrina, I'm good...
00:30:06You know what?
00:30:07I hate fighting.
00:30:09So...
00:30:09Let's just forget about this, okay?
00:30:12I was thinking...
00:30:13We could...
00:30:14Revisit your script.
00:30:18I gave that to you three years ago.
00:30:21You telling me you finally read it?
00:30:23Well, yeah.
00:30:24The first ten pages.
00:30:26But...
00:30:26They're good.
00:30:27The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:30:30I mean, we have to do this.
00:30:32Me and you.
00:30:33The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:30:37I 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,
00:30:45and for the next hour we can just pour ourselves into the script.
00:30:49Just like we used to in film school.
00:30:52There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:30:56I would have melted in her hands.
00:30:58Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:01Fine.
00:31:16I don't know what you do, but...
00:31:18I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone.
00:31:21And it was...
00:31:22Awful.
00:31:24Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you.
00:31:25I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:31:27That'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.
00:31:39You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:31:42I told you!
00:31:43It was just a publicity stunt!
00:31:45God!
00:31:46It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair!
00:31:50Married 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!
00:32:04Look what you made me do.
00:32:06Just...
00:32:08Just leave it.
00:32:09I 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!
00:32:18And look what I get for it!
00:32:20You know what?
00:32:22Forget it.
00:32:23I have a mirror.
00:32:24We'll just talk about this tomorrow.
00:32:40What?
00:32:41Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:32:43Yeah.
00:32:43Ex-mother-in-law.
00:32:44Not 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.
00:32:51This is showbiz, baby.
00:32:53Remember that.
00:32:54I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:33:06I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:33:11Oh, please.
00:33:12She's always been so secretive.
00:33:14I 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.
00:33:26Oh, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:33:29Come here.
00:33:30Oh.
00:33:33Jackson!
00:33:35We were just talking about your mom.
00:33:37Do you know where she is?
00:33:38Or who she's with?
00:33:40She'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.
00:34:07What are you doing here?
00:34:08You never come to these things.
00:34:10Well, that's gotta be the husband.
00:34:14Get lost!
00:34:15You'll 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?
00:34:29Oh, my God.
00:34:31That's Preston Eastwood.
00:34:32How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:34:36If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:34:38I wish Preston was my dad.
00:34:40You're a pathetic loser!
00:34:41Zip it, Jackson.
00:34:43You should probably listen to your kid and head out,
00:34:46because you're starting to make a scene.
00:34:48I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:34:50That's not what I see.
00:34:52You showed up uninvited, in street rags,
00:34:56abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:00That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:35:03It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:35:06And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:35:10This 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.
00:35:26Oh, yeah?
00:35:27What lesson's that, Preston?
00:35:29You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on,
00:35:31so that you can leech off her career?
00:35:32Hmm.
00:35:35Hmm.
00:35:37Oh!
00:35:41Oh!

00:43:31I got you.
00:43:32Don't let me go!
00:43:35Was I ever really paying attention?
00:43:41Daniel?
00:43:42No, it's Mom. Is everything okay?
00:43:45You sound panicked.
00:43:46Mom.
00:43:48Mom.
00:43:49Daniel.
00:43:50He just left us.
00:43:53Do 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.
00:44:02Daniel's not coming back.
00:44:04You knew?
00:44:06I'll come over in the morning and explain everything.
00:44:16I'm hungry!
00:44:18Dad!
00:44:19Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:44:22Jackson?
00:44:25I have something to tell you.
00:44:29Your dad.
00:44:32Your dad.
00:44:34He's left us.
00:44:36I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:44:38Yay! He's gone! He's gone!
00:44:41Why 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?
00:44:49He said a pathetic pussy like that should stick to scrubbing toilets, then raising a young man.
00:44:56He was so lame and boring.
00:44:58Now he's gone!
00:45:00Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:45:02He can be my new dad.
00:45:04Jackson, you have a dad.
00:45:07And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:45:09Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:11Yeah, but I hate him!
00:45:17Hello?
00:45:18Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:45:20Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:45:22I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:45:24I'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?
00:45:31No, but I'm not surprised.
00:45:34Flag his name.
00:45:35I 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.
00:45:49And 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 and 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.
00:46:11Honey.
00:46:13It's time to let him go.
00:46:15You don't love him anyway.
00:46:17And think about what Preston would do for your career.
00:46:23What?
00:46:24How 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.
00:46:41And the father of my son.
00:46:43Yeah, some husband abandoning you without a moment's notice, wanting nothing to do with
00:46:47his child just because the contract ended.
00:46:50Contract?
00:46:52What contract?
00:46:56What 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, you said that he was going on
00:47:07a trip.
00:47:08Is there something you're not telling me?
00:47:10Please.
00:47:11I just want the truth.
00:47:13Mom.
00:47:15Fine.
00:47:16I will tell you the truth.
00:47:18But 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.
00:47:32When Preston left you, you were distraught.
00:47:35I had to save you.
00:47:37She'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.
00:47:46She needs you.
00:47:48Stay.
00:47:49Marry her.
00:47:50Love her.
00:47:51So 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?
00:48:18You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:48:21Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:48:24He kept you together.
00:48:25Where?
00:48:26Where 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.
00:48:37Believe me, it's for the best.
00:48:39No, he can't be gone.
00:48:41He can't.
00:48:42Yes, he is gone.
00:48:44And he is gone forever.
00:48:46He can't be.
00:48:47He can't be gone.
00:48:48He can't.
00:49:09I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame the Silver Fox.
00:49:13That's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director.
00:49:18Speaking of which, there he is now, Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:49:24Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:49:29What's going through your head tonight?
00:49:31Honestly, 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.
00:49:41Uh, yeah, um, God, my career has been a long time in the making.
00:49:46And I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:49:48I almost, I almost gave up the dream.
00:49:50But London, London lit the fire under me.
00:49:54And I feel like I found my voice.
00:49:56And it really is full steam ahead.
00:49:58Speaking of London, since you're an American writer-director,
00:50:01will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:50:06Hollywood.
00:50:07Get out of the country.
00:50:09If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:50:14I will make your life a living hell.
00:50:19Daniel?
00:50:33He's no good at bragging about himself, so I'll do it for him.
00:50:37Daniel is a true auteur and a pretty genius.
00:50:41And it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:50:44That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake,
00:50:46two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress
00:50:48and celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:50:52Well, I've heard that, uh,
00:50:53your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:50:56We'll never tell.
00:51:00Oh my God, thanks for saving me.
00:51:03She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:51:04I know, jeez.
00:51:06This is so surreal.
00:51:07I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:51:09I can.
00:51:10The moment I read your script,
00:51:12I knew you were special.
00:51:16Daniel, enjoy this.
00:51:19And 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 drinking.
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 favourite filmmaker.
00:51:39Some of us just got a head start.
00:51:52I know.
00:51:54All press is good press.
00:52:00Daniel becomes an award-winning director,
00:52:02and he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:52:07He can't do this to me!
00:52:09Sabrina.
00:52:10You don't need him.
00:52:11Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:52:13How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:52:16Move on?
00:52:18Please, honey.
00:52:19He is using her.
00:52:21Why 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?
00:52:28I mean, 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.
00:52:38A celebrated career,
00:52:40a mansion in the hills,
00:52:42an adorable kid.
00:52:44Well, and he's not whining.
00:52:46And don't forget about Preston.
00:52:48Your dream man.
00:52:49You have everything.
00:52:51I don't have him.
00:52:54Mom, I'm hungry.
00:52:55Go 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?
00:53:02Don't talk about him like that.
00:53:04He's your dad.
00:53:05No!
00:53:06Preston is my real dad now.
00:53:08Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet.
00:53:11It 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, you little shit!
00:53:28Enough!
00:53:29Just enough!
00:53:31Sabrina?
00:53:32What's gotten into you?
00:53:33Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:53:37Whoa.
00:53:38What's going on here?
00:53:40This room feels really tense.
00:53:41Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:53:43I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:53:45No!
00:53:46I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:53:48And if you keep talking like that,
00:53:50I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:53:51It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat!
00:53:58Hey, babe.
00:53:59Are 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.
00:54:05You 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.
00:54:30Face 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.
00:54:37Yeah, 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.
00:54:44Because you know what?
00:54:46Honestly, I pity you.
00:54:47It'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?
00:54:57Huh?
00:54:58What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:00What's my favorite color?
00:55:02My favorite song?
00:55:02Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:55:05Oh, oh, wait.
00:55:06What's my fucking middle name?
00:55:08You don't give a shit about me.
00:55:11You don't love me.
00:55:12You don't even know me.
00:55:14This isn't a relationship.
00:55:16This 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.
00:55:24We're over.
00:55:26We're over.
00:55:27No, babe, babe, come on.
00:55:28Please, please, I love you.
00:55:30Just think about it.
00:55:31Look at the press.
00:55:32What this will look like?
00:55:34If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot uglier.
00:55:38Get out.
00:55:39Hey, just...
00:55:40Now.
00:55:41Just give me your hand.
00:55:42Come on.
00:55:42No.
00:55:43I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:55:46Nobody sees the real thing.
00:55:48I see you, Sabrina.
00:55:49I see all of you.
00:55:52And you're never going to be alone again.
00:55:55He truly knew me.
00:55:58He loved me.
00:56:00Every flaw.
00:56:02Every fear.
00:56:03Contract or not.
00:56:05He truly loved me.
00:56:07I saved you from social suicide.
00:56:09Saved me?
00:56:11You 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!
00:56:21Security!
00:56:22Come on.
00:56:23Just let's talk about this.
00:56:24No.
00:56:25Come on.
00:56:26Celeste, do something!
00:56:28Come on.
00:56:28Sabrina!
00:56:29Come on, Sabrina!
00:56:31Was that really necessary?
00:56:33I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister and 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, not some money-grubbing manager.
00:56:48Sabrina, you are being dramatic.
00:56:51Of course I care about you.
00:56:53I love you.
00:56:55Then prove it.
00:56:56If you ever want me in front of a camera again, then you will help me get Daniel back.
00:57:14You'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 every single film that you ever produced.
00:57:23I mean, you know this.
00:57:24You'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, but I mean, I'm doing all right.
00:57:34I got projects.
00:57:34Come on, you're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters, the one that gets
00:57:39made in L.A., not London.
00:57:41That's where you belong.
00:57:43To be honest, I already did all.
00:57:46It didn't really end well.
00:57:47Let me guess, a girl?
00:57:49If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:57:54You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:57:57You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:58:01You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:58:03Three-picture deal, $200 million budget each, creative 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.
00:58:11Just don't keep me waiting.
00:58:14Just remember, Daniel, you 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?
00:58:34Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:58:38Of course, it's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
00:58:44Is this a personal story where we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
00:58:49Oh, she knows who she is.
00:58:54I'll leave it at that.
00:58:58You arrogant little shit.
00:59:00I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
00:59:10It's Celeste Donovan.
00:59:11I need a favor.
00:59:12I need you to track down Daniel Johnson and find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
00:59:18It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
00:59:23Mom, what are you doing?
00:59:28Did you just break my TV?
00:59:30Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
00:59:33You know I'm not supposed to do that.
00:59:35You've been so kind, though.
00:59:36It's called You Drive Me Crazy.
00:59:41He's back.
00:59:44Why didn't you tell me?
00:59:46Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
00:59:49I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
00:59:51I need to get on that movie.
00:59:53Absolutely not.
00:59:54You're not working for your ex-husband.
00:59:56If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who 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.
01:00:12Mom.
01:00:15Honey, I...
01:00:17You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:00:20I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:00:24I love you.
01:00:26I love you, too.
01:00:30Here we go.
01:00:32This is, um...
01:00:34It's another movie deal.
01:00:35I'll tell you about it after.
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 blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:01He'll be erased from 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, she'll get one.
01:01:23It's so nice having you back.
01:01:25And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:01:27Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
01:01:29A couple?
01:01:31Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people.
01:01:35If you can even call them that.
01:01:36But you're healthy now.
01:01:37And I'm at the top of my career.
01:01:39I mean, yeah, there was a time that I loved Sabrina,
01:01:42but I really thought I could make it work.
01:01:45The marriage, the kids.
01:01:47I mean, we really tried.
01:01:48I thought I could make it go for it, but, um...
01:01:52It's over.
01:01:53It's over.
01:01:54I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
01:01:56she thinks Preston Eastwood can offer.
01:02:06Oh.
01:02:07You haven't heard?
01:02:09She dumped him.
01:02:10It was all over People Magazine.
01:02:12She ended it when his star faded.
01:02:16Oh, my God.
01:02:17What?
01:02:23Daniel!
01:02:26Stop!
01:02:34Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:02:36I'm here to help you.
01:02:38Sabrina.
01:02:39We are making a scene.
01:02:40Let's go home.
01:02:41Sabrina.
01:02:42How could you?
01:02:43What?
01:02:43I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition,
01:02:46but he said no.
01:02:47I begged and pleaded.
01:02:49Stop lying.
01:02:50I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:02:55And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too,
01:02:57to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:03:00My God.
01:03:01You're disgusting.
01:03:02I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:04I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:03:04Not anymore.
01:03:05Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:03:10I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:03:13I'm your mother.
01:03:15I only want what's best for you.
01:03:18What's best for me?
01:03:21You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:03:26That all ends today.
01:03:31You're fired.
01:03:33You're fired.
01:03:35No.
01:03:37No.
01:03:42No.
01:03:44You can't do this to me.
01:03:45Please.
01:03:46Please, sweetie.
01:03:47I have dedicated my life to you.
01:03:48You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:03:53I was just who you used to get to it.
01:03:56You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:03:58There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:04:02I made you.
01:04:03You'd be nothing without me.
01:04:08I think she'll do just fine.
01:04:16We're done here, Mom.
01:04:18If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine,
01:04:23you'll leave now.
01:04:25Without another word.
01:04:37I have something to say.
01:04:40I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:04:43I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:04:46I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:04:51I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:05:00Apologize to your father.
01:05:02Do I have to?
01:05:04Who raised you?
01:05:06Cared for you?
01:05:09Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:05:12Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:05:16He did.
01:05:17He loved you.
01:05:19But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:05:21I was wrong.
01:05:22Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:05:27And now there is nothing we can do to take that back.
01:05:31Jack, I'm sorry, Dad.
01:05:36It's going to be okay, son.
01:05:38I still love you.
01:05:39Okay.
01:05:41Come on, Jackson.
01:05:42Let's go.
01:05:48I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:51For everything.
01:06:01I know that look, Daniel.
01:06:03You're thinking of going back to them.
01:06:08I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:06:10They hurt you, Daniel.
01:06:13They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:06:20People can change.
01:06:22But that doesn't change the past.
01:06:28And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:06:36Daniel!
01:06:37Daniel!
01:06:38Daniel!
01:06:38Daniel!
01:06:38Daniel!
01:06:39Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing
01:06:43sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:06:44Yes.
01:06:45I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:06:51But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:06:53Um, I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:07:04Way to go, Jan!
01:07:23Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:07:26We'll keep in touch.
01:07:33How many more do we have today?
01:07:35Forty.
01:07:36Sir.
01:07:36Jesus.
01:07:37Yay, boy!
01:07:38How are we looking?
01:07:39We're still digging.
01:07:40Um, no one's cracked the lead yet.
01:07:43But, I mean, this film lives or dies by the female lead.
01:07:48All right, here's the deal.
01:07:49The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:07:53Today?
01:07:53Are you fucking kidding me?
01:07:55That's why I love you, man.
01:07:56Cool under pressure.
01:07:57This movie is going to blow the roof off.
01:08:03Oh, my God.
01:08:04All right, just bring in the next one.
01:08:05Ah.
01:08:06But 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 from London for this?
01:08:23Yes.
01:08:23Please.
01:08:24I wasn't going to miss a shot who auditioned for the great Daniel Jones.
01:08:27Hey.
01:08:29How's LA treating you?
01:08:31Oh, my God.
01:08:32Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:08:34But I am...
01:08:36I'm glad to be back.
01:08:38Well, it's no English countryside.
01:08:40Yeah.
01:08:40But it suits you.
01:08:43You definitely belong here.
01:08:47I do miss you, though.
01:08:49It was fun playing the part.
01:08:52British starlet.
01:08:54American director.
01:08:56I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:00Waiting for us to become something real.
01:09:03I'm sorry, Emily.
01:09:06It just cast me, and we'll call it even.
01:09:09You...
01:09:09You were amazing, as always.
01:09:12It's just...
01:09:14It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:09:17I never was, was I?
01:09:21Anyways...
01:09:21Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:09:25Maybe I'll see you around?
01:09:26Yeah.
01:09:39Give me a coffee, and you know what?
01:09:40Go get one for yourself, too.
01:09:43And be generous with the sugar.
01:09:50Oh, my God.
01:09:52What am I gonna do?
01:09:59That was quick.
01:10:10What are you doing here?
01:10:13I came to audition.
01:10:17Did you bring any representation?
01:10:18No.
01:10:20I fired my manager, remember?
01:10:23I'm starting fresh.
01:10:25Right, um...
01:10:28Hi.
01:10:30I'm Sabrina Donovan.
01:10:34Don't let me go!
01:10:36I got you.
01:10:37I'll never let you go.
01:10:40Are you okay?
01:10:42Yeah.
01:10:42It's an old wound that, um...
01:10:45Never really healed.
01:10:48I understand.
01:10:52Daniel Johnson.
01:10:55Nice to meet you.
01:10:59Please.
01:11:08Whenever you're ready.
01:11:19Oh.
01:11:35I'm doing, baby.
01:11:37Hi on,nel.
01:11:38I'm wanting you through you.
01:11:38I know.
01:11:38I'll be here now.
01:11:39Oh, boy.
01:11:42This is my first plug in products.
01:11:43You got me.
01:11:43On third plug in.
01:11:47Neither are grand kids.
01:11:49In our last country,
