00:00:00Welcome back, Eddie has Showbiz now.
00:00:02Good morning and welcome to Daily News.
00:00:05I'm your host Amanda.
00:00:06Our story today is about Ben Cooper,
00:00:08a rising actor and recent Oscar nominee
00:00:11who made a ripple in the acting industry
00:00:13after his performance in his recent movie Maximizer.
00:00:16His Instagram numbers have now risen from 50.2 million
00:00:20to over 100 million just over the span of two days,
00:00:24which is quite an achievement for someone as young as he is.
00:00:34Do you have any idea what you've done?
00:00:38I don't know.
00:00:41I'm not sure if I can do this.
00:00:43What did I even do?
00:00:46Well, you're not going to be getting any supporting roles anymore.
00:00:49Why?
00:00:52Because you are going to be the lead.
00:00:55Indeed, you will be the biggest star ever.
00:01:02Fasten your seatbelt then.
00:01:03It's time to fly.
00:01:10Everything just feels so unreal.
00:01:13That's what happens when you become a star.
00:01:18What's with the phone?
00:01:24I'm tired of saying please and sorry and next time.
00:01:28It's just best not to respond at all.
00:01:31Now I know what my old managers were doing before.
00:01:34All this.
00:01:34Tricks of the trade.
00:01:36But don't you worry.
00:01:37Everyone who was ignoring you before will be after you.
00:01:41You are a superstar.
00:01:46Not a moment of peace.
00:01:48Hello?
00:01:58Save me that right now.
00:02:01What is it, Alan?
00:02:02You're scaring me.
00:02:10I think we're in trouble.
00:02:31Please wake up, please.
00:02:32Wake up.
00:02:33Hi!
00:02:33Hi!
00:02:34Um, sorry.
00:02:36I was just wondering if you've rescheduled my interview at all.
00:02:41Yes.
00:02:41My name is Blake, number 56.
00:02:48There are no sauce left.
00:02:50Um, I'm sorry, but you told me to wait.
00:02:57No, no, this isn't fair.
00:02:59You need to reconsider me.
00:03:01What?
00:03:02Hello?
00:03:06Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
00:03:10I'm never going to get an acting job.
00:03:15Excuse me.
00:03:20I'm kind of telling you I failed, Mum.
00:03:24Well, I mean, I guess she's right I didn't give up too soon.
00:03:31I think it's time to prove them wrong.
00:03:36You've got this, Blake.
00:03:41Hi, um, I want an appointment with Manager Alan.
00:03:46Yeah, I knew you would refuse.
00:03:48Listen, I've got a very interesting story to tell him.
00:03:55Screw you.
00:03:57I don't need your approval anyway.
00:04:02People just need gossip.
00:04:08Hello?
00:04:11This case is way more important than your court proceedings.
00:04:16I'm sure someone's just trying to defame Ben with these rumours.
00:04:21He's not in a relationship.
00:04:23Ben hasn't been in a relationship for a year.
00:04:26No, it's not about being in a relationship.
00:04:30People are saying that he's...
00:04:33that he's dating his male co-star, Thomas.
00:04:39I've got an important call.
00:04:40I'll call you back.
00:04:41Why do people think I'm over-exaggerating?
00:04:47What?
00:04:51What story?
00:04:52Send her it.
00:04:57Okay, what story?
00:04:58Who are you?
00:05:01Well, uh, there's not really a story as such.
00:05:06I...
00:05:06It's as important as that.
00:05:11Okay.
00:05:13Since you, you know, don't really talk to commoners often,
00:05:16I just wanted to come here in person
00:05:20and tell you that your agency is the worst I've ever seen.
00:05:24Okay.
00:05:26You know you're scamming people, right?
00:05:29That's what people say when they don't get a job here.
00:05:31Okay, not getting a job is different.
00:05:32You guys are...
00:05:33You guys ditched me for my interview.
00:05:36Look, I've got a lot to deal with,
00:05:38so can you please do your rand elsewhere?
00:05:44Are you going to go,
00:05:45or am I going to have to get someone to take you away?
00:05:49Okay, look, um,
00:05:52I'm sorry, I just...
00:05:53I really need a job right now.
00:05:56This isn't a request, Santa.
00:05:58Please.
00:06:01Okay.
00:06:02Well, you know what?
00:06:03I hope karma bites you with...
00:06:08Sorry.
00:06:09Are you blind?
00:06:11Get your eyes fixed.
00:06:15Who is that?
00:06:16Just a jobless nobody.
00:06:20Right.
00:06:25We need to focus on the people who do recognise you.
00:06:28Ben,
00:06:30I can't prove you're not gay.
00:06:34I don't understand why these reporters
00:06:36enjoy writing fake stories about me.
00:06:38It's how they make their money.
00:06:40Is it harmful for my image?
00:06:42Is it...
00:06:44No.
00:06:46You can date who you want to,
00:06:47but there's rumours.
00:06:49Like,
00:06:50it ruins your identity.
00:06:52Like,
00:06:52do you really want to come out like that?
00:06:54Obviously not.
00:06:56And I've been contacted by Thomas' manager.
00:06:58He wants me to address the issue as soon as possible.
00:07:01Just release a statement.
00:07:02I've been telling the reporters
00:07:03these rumours aren't true,
00:07:04but they keep on printing stories
00:07:06to say that they are.
00:07:07What difference would a statement make?
00:07:11What if we did something
00:07:12to distract from the story?
00:07:16Like what?
00:07:17Like,
00:07:19what if I were to date a girl?
00:07:23That's the dumbest thing ever.
00:07:25Well, it would kill the boss.
00:07:27I don't know,
00:07:27it'd put us on the right path
00:07:29to fix Thomas' image
00:07:32and my identity.
00:07:35My question is how.
00:07:39I have a brilliant idea.
00:07:57Everything sucks.
00:08:01You know what?
00:08:02I've decided
00:08:03I'm not leaving my room.
00:08:05Nope.
00:08:07Staying here
00:08:07for eternity.
00:08:10It's settled.
00:08:17I mean,
00:08:20I don't want to have to go back
00:08:21to my village,
00:08:22but
00:08:25I've got no one else to go.
00:08:29I mean,
00:08:29everyone will laugh at me
00:08:30if I go back.
00:09:02I think...
00:09:04I think...
00:09:08I think I have to go back.
00:09:14This is kind of good.
00:09:34Nope.
00:09:36Nope.
00:09:38Absolutely not.
00:09:39I'm not answering and with a lot of skankles.
00:09:43Yeah.
00:09:54What is it, Mum?
00:09:58Um, hey.
00:10:00Is this Blake?
00:10:01Yeah.
00:10:03Well, I'm Alan.
00:10:06I hope you remember me.
00:10:07You just came to visit me a while ago.
00:10:11Um, yeah.
00:10:12Yeah, hi.
00:10:14Hello.
00:10:15Hi.
00:10:16Um.
00:10:18Can we meet?
00:10:19I have a job for you.
00:10:34I'm still not happy with this idea of yours.
00:10:39Sorry, what did you say?
00:10:41Your idea.
00:10:42It's absurd.
00:10:43I'm just saving my reputation.
00:10:45Covering a lie with another lie.
00:10:47Well, everybody lies.
00:10:49People will believe anything.
00:10:51Well, try this so you can't blame me for not saving you later.
00:10:55Let's hope this girl doesn't go crazy after listening to her job requirements.
00:10:58She won't go crazy.
00:10:59I got a different vibe from her.
00:11:01You sure?
00:11:03I'm sure.
00:11:07Send her in.
00:11:10Still not sure about this girl.
00:11:13Come in.
00:11:17Please, take a seat.
00:11:21Thanks for coming in so soon.
00:11:23Well, I'm actually surprised.
00:11:25Didn't know my words had such an impact on you.
00:11:27Well, I feel really bad the way I treated you before.
00:11:32So, I got a job for you.
00:11:34Oh, I hope you've, you know...
00:11:37Oh, sorry.
00:11:38It's not so much of a job.
00:11:41More of a favour.
00:11:47This is all...
00:11:52So, what do you think, Blake?
00:11:55So, you want me to fake date Ben, for the time being?
00:11:58Yeah.
00:11:59It's as simple as that.
00:12:02Okay, but...
00:12:03Who's Ben?
00:12:08How do you not know Ben?
00:12:09Like, you haven't seen his movies or dramas or anything like that?
00:12:16I'm not really a social person, so, you know, whatever happens in showbiz, I don't know about.
00:12:21Yeah, but still, like, who doesn't know Ben?
00:12:26Me, apparently.
00:12:30I am Ben.
00:12:32Will you do me this favour?
00:12:40No.
00:12:54That was...
00:12:57That was Ben.
00:12:59The...
00:13:00The Ben Cooper.
00:13:05I can't believe that just happened!
00:13:08Oh, my God.
00:13:09Oh, my God.
00:13:10Oh, my God.
00:13:11I'm so stupid not to recognise him.
00:13:14What the...
00:13:20I can't do it.
00:13:25I...
00:13:26I...
00:13:26I...
00:13:27I don't think I can ever let something like that happen to me.
00:13:36I guess I've got to keep packing then.
00:13:39I...
00:13:41I...
00:13:44I...
00:13:46I...
00:13:47I...
00:13:49I...
00:14:03Yeah, Mum.
00:14:04Guess what I have.
00:14:15Ew. Okay, I would rather die than marry that bastard.
00:14:26Hey. You need to relax.
00:14:35I'm so jealous of you right now. I'm dying of anxiety and you're just chilling in your house.
00:14:40And on top of that, you're asking me to relax? Are you crazy or what?
00:14:45I told you an excellent plan. Now it's your part to play. Just make it work.
00:14:49Yeah, fine. It was an amazing plan.
00:14:53Fine. It was a really good plan.
00:14:56But why are you so stubborn about this girl? Why can't I find you another one?
00:15:00A better one. One that's a better actor.
00:15:02No. It has to be this girl. I told you if I'm doing this, she has to be my fake
00:15:07girlfriend.
00:15:09Ben, we can't delay this any longer.
00:15:11I agree. So convince her.
00:15:15Give me one good reason why it has to be this girl. And if it's reasonable, I will do whatever
00:15:20you want.
00:15:23Well, for a starter, she's different. Right? When I first met her, she didn't even recognize me.
00:15:28If we want to do this, right, it plays better if she's not obsessed with me. It makes it more
00:15:35believable.
00:15:47Yeah, I'm sorry. Ben's already giving an interview right now.
00:15:51All right. I'll book him in for an interview with you as well.
00:15:57Yeah. All right. Ben's stopping this girl is the next level.
00:16:08Please pick up Blake.
00:16:15I need a plan B.
00:16:19Who is it?
00:16:22It's me. Blake.
00:16:25Please come in.
00:16:31Take a seat.
00:16:33I hope we're alone in here.
00:16:35Oh, of course.
00:16:39I knew you'd be back.
00:16:42I need a job, Alan.
00:16:44Oh, of course. It's what we offered you in the first place.
00:16:46No, no. A proper job with a proper designation.
00:16:52Look. Look, I'll... I'll do anything. Okay, but I can't do this.
00:16:57What will I tell my parents? That I'm, what, someone's fake girlfriend?
00:17:01That's not something I would want to tell them.
00:17:05Blake, it's what I said. It's not a job. It's more of a favor.
00:17:11Okay, fine. Then I can't do it, then.
00:17:14Blake, please help us with this.
00:17:19I really wish I could help you, Alan, but...
00:17:23I can't. I'm really sorry.
00:17:26God, Blake, please. Come on.
00:17:34Why didn't you tell me she was here?
00:17:35You know that I'm looking for her and I can't find her and you just let her go?
00:17:39Blake, she didn't give me the chance. She just walked right out.
00:17:42And what is it with you, Ben?
00:17:44Like, I've never seen you this way before unless you really respect someone.
00:17:51Oh, my God.
00:17:53Oh, my God.
00:17:55Ben's fallen in love.
00:17:57No, no, I haven't. It's nothing like that.
00:17:59Okay, it's not.
00:18:00Then what? What is it with her?
00:18:02I just think that we need to disprove the rumors as soon as possible.
00:18:05So what, I should just call her right away?
00:18:07Yeah, call her.
00:18:09Ben.
00:18:09Look, Alan, I gave you a job. You failed.
00:18:12Okay, just text me her number and I'll call her.
00:18:14Look, you've got to be kidding me.
00:18:16I've got a family dinner now. Text me her number. Okay?
00:18:20Now.
00:18:21Now.
00:18:21Now.
00:18:23Now.
00:18:24Now.
00:18:34Now.
00:18:35Now.
00:18:42Now.
00:18:45Now.
00:18:46Now.
00:19:01Oh,rebon.
00:19:04else, yeah? It's Ben. Ben Cooper? Look, if you're busy then that's okay, I can call
00:19:13tomorrow. No! I mean, you know, I can talk. Sorry, I didn't recognize your voice.
00:19:22That's okay, we haven't talked before, so how do you recognize my voice? Yeah, I mean,
00:19:27who would expect a call from you after all? You still don't know who I am? Well,
00:19:33I think I'll cut to the chase. Can we meet tomorrow? I'm busy tomorrow, sorry. I just
00:19:45need a few minutes of your time. If you can't come out to my place then maybe I
00:19:49could meet you at yours? No, no, I'll come. Great, I'll text you the address. See you
00:19:59tomorrow. Why don't you have a seat, make yourself comfortable. Thanks. Would you like a coffee?
00:20:10Uh, yeah, thank you. It's a strange studio. Here you are. Thank you.
00:20:30You don't have anyone to look after this place? Well, it's my home. I should be the
00:20:36one to look after it, right? Your home. This is, this is your home. Is that a problem? No,
00:20:45no, no, I just, um, I didn't expect you to call me over. It's kind of intimate. Well,
00:20:54I don't like to go out when I'm not working. Um, so what, what is it you wanted to talk
00:21:01about?
00:21:02I wanted to ask, why are you running away from me? I've offered you a nice job.
00:21:07Yeah, but it's not a job. Whatever it is, I only want you forward. You know, I've talked
00:21:16to Alan about it. I know. Well, that's my final decision. What if I offered you a different
00:21:27role? As my secretary. That way you could have a respectable prefix added to your name,
00:21:36and you can still help me fix my reputation. Um, okay, well, it's still not a job. I want
00:21:45a long-term job. You know, your conditions will only hold me for some time. I'll have to leave
00:21:50in the end. How much do you need? Is it about money? No, it's not about money.
00:22:00What if I offer to hire you full-time? Full-time secretary. Permanently. I'm sorry, I really
00:22:08don't understand. Why me? Because I just like you. I mean, for the, for this role, I think
00:22:19you'd be a perfect fit. Okay, but there are so many other people that you could pick
00:22:24from. There's something different about you. Look, I've offered you the role with a part
00:22:33to play a little. Are you in? I'm in.
00:22:54Ria. What are you doing? Don't treat me like this. And how should I treat my ex? You want
00:23:00in that work? Can you just get over this already? We're not in a relationship anymore, okay?
00:23:06Just leave. I know you. Stop. You don't need to pretend. You can say to me time and time
00:23:14again, this is no different. Penny, I'm here for you. Get off, okay? You need to get out.
00:23:29This is the contract. This contract is for a year from now. We will renew it, of course,
00:23:37so you don't have to worry.
00:23:50I'm sorry. Um, you're giving me a million dollars for this job. Is that number not acceptable
00:23:57for you? No, no, not, not at all. I just... I said I'd pay you enough.
00:24:06Okay, why do you even need a secretary when you have an amazing manager? Well, I mean, Alan
00:24:12looks after the whole agency. So it's a lot of work for him, and if we can bring someone
00:24:17on board to split off the workload, that'd be helpful. Look, it's my decision, okay? And Alan,
00:24:25I'm not cutting any of your pay. No, I never said that.
00:24:31Alright. Well, how about you sign the contract so we can move forward with the plan?
00:24:50Welcome. You're hired. Thanks. I'll try my best for you.
00:25:04Relax. You look tense. Um, I could have thought my own food and drink, so you don't have to.
00:25:13Don't be silly. I was buying things for myself, so I'm all not happy to buy you some things for
00:25:16me.
00:25:18Listen, I hope you don't get the wrong idea about me. Wrong idea about what?
00:25:24Well, it could easily be seen as that I'm just using my money to get to you, and I just
00:25:29want you to know it's not like that.
00:25:32I know.
00:25:34Good idea. I used to struggle for work, too.
00:25:41Seriously? Yeah, well, there were times where I'd go to bed hungry because I couldn't afford food.
00:25:45It was tough, and all that happened before I met Alan.
00:25:51And once I met him, he is such a generous man, and he looked after me like his own problem.
00:25:57And now you've met him, too. So you don't have to worry about any of that.
00:26:04I... I've put a lot of hard work, and I've struggled through a lot in my career to get to
00:26:09where I am.
00:26:10And I'd hate to have just one reporter ruin that because they have something out for me.
00:26:16So that's where you come in.
00:26:20I promise that I'll try my best. Even if it asks for sacrifices.
00:26:25No, it shouldn't require any sacrifices. Your dedication is enough.
00:26:35Oh my god. I'm... I'm so sorry. I'm meeting someone. I've gotta go.
00:26:40Oh, do you want me to call you an Uber? What if... should I...
00:26:43No, no, it's okay. It's not that far. I can just walk, but...
00:26:45Okay.
00:26:46Um...
00:26:47Bye.
00:26:48Thank you. See you.
00:27:02I really should stop ripping these.
00:27:07Take a seat.
00:27:18Why'd you call me?
00:27:20Nah, straight to the point.
00:27:23Look, if you want to sue me, just do it.
00:27:26I wanted to sue you. I would have done that a long time ago.
00:27:29I think we can deal with this a different way.
00:27:33Who really should pay for all the wrong information or stupid article spreads?
00:27:39I'm already waiting for legal notice.
00:27:43Look.

00:27:47And if you do this for me, I won't sue you.
00:27:50I'll even offer you a job.

00:27:57I want you to write exclusive articles about Ben.
00:28:00I'll give you all the sources and information.
00:28:03You just need to put Ben in the spotlight since you're a well-known reporter.
00:28:10What kind of articles?
00:28:13I'll tell you about your silent contract.
00:28:16And this is a confidential agreement.

00:52:49you're not just my assistant or my colleague or my secretary you're more than that to me
00:52:59what do you mean
00:53:03i mean
00:53:07i think
00:53:10i think i've developed feelings for you blake
00:53:16since since when to be honest i don't know
00:53:21i mean when i when i first met you i i wanted to get to know you better and i
00:53:27spoke to alan and
00:53:29we had a role for you to play but i want you to know that i've loved every second that
00:53:34i've spent with you
00:53:39after today if you want to end the contract here that's okay i i understand and please don't let
00:53:48my feelings be a burden to you. I just wanted to be true to myself.
00:54:01Can I kiss you? Because I, I really want to.
00:54:23Yes? Send her in.
00:54:32What happened last night? I'm hearing all kinds of things.
00:54:35Well, everything was fine until Ria caused a scene.
00:54:39When will she leave us alone? What did she do exactly?
00:54:43Well, I was taking pictures of them, like you asked, and then Ben left Blake by herself,
00:54:51and Ria showed up. And then she started this argument, and she slapped her.
00:54:58Oh, she's really crossed the line this time. Write an article about this. We need to cause
00:55:02this scandal so she leaves us alone. Look, I'm really sorry, but I'm only paid to write for Ben.
00:55:10I'm sorry.
00:55:20Consider it done.
00:55:27Who is this? She's a reporter. And what are you doing?
00:55:33I hired her.
00:55:39Why didn't you tell me about Oliver?
00:55:41It wasn't important.
00:55:43The heck, Alan? You hired the reporter. You know what she's done.
00:55:48I know, I know, I know. But you wouldn't have let her on if I told you about her.
00:55:52Of course, right? She's on my blacklist because she's the reason that we have to do this in the
00:55:56first place. Look, she wrote those articles.
00:55:59I know, I know. Please, take a session.
00:56:03She wrote those articles on you in the first place. Therefore, she has the audience we need.
00:56:08Don't you see? She wrote one story about you and the old rumors died.
00:56:14This is because people trust her.
00:56:16One good deed does not make her a good person, okay? I don't trust her.
00:56:20I know, I know. I don't trust her either.
00:56:24But I've got a plan, okay? She is useful.
00:56:29Still.
00:56:32Ben, in my years of managing, I've learned one thing.
00:56:36Sometimes you need to take the risk.
00:56:40Whatever. Okay, I just don't want to get Blake involved in this.
00:56:44Okay, we can't drag her into this mess.
00:56:46No, I know. So say what happened to her last night.
00:56:52Wait. Wait, where is she? Why isn't she with you?
00:56:55Oh, don't tell me she's left. We can't do this without her.
00:56:59How are we going to do an ex-
00:57:00She's just taking a break today.
00:57:02Everything's fine, but I do need to tell you something.
00:57:20It smells so good.
00:57:24What time did you wake up?
00:57:26I woke up just after you left.
00:57:30I can't stay away from you for long.
00:57:32Mm-mm.
00:57:47Food's ready.
00:57:55How we eat later?
00:58:11Why'd you call?
00:58:13Don't lie down with me.
00:58:15Do you fear me?
00:58:18Fear you.
00:58:19I mean, why else?
00:58:21Why would you call this soon?
00:58:23Ben's gay story was your idea.
00:58:25Can you keep it down?
00:58:27Someone could hear us.
00:58:28It's not going to change the fact that you're secretly defaming Ben through me.
00:58:33How many times do I have to tell you?
00:58:34This is not about defaming Ben.
00:58:36I just wanted him to get back with me.
00:58:40But I do need your help.
00:58:43I have some intel on Blake that I think you're going to want to heal.
00:58:54Their relationship, the whole thing, is fake.
00:58:58They've got a contract.
00:58:59It's all for modlessly.
00:59:01Expose her.
00:59:04Ria, this isn't enough.
00:59:05I know that.
00:59:11That should be it.
00:59:16Now, do it.
00:59:18Drag, like, through the press.
00:59:22And if you do it, and it works, I'll agree to form a date to you.
00:59:29Do you promise?
00:59:31Promise.
00:59:34Anything for a date of you.
00:59:42Do whatever you want to do.
00:59:45Say it with a smile.
00:59:46Be nice, Alan.
00:59:49Do whatever you want to do.
00:59:53See, that's what I'm talking about.
00:59:57Well, how do you want to go about this?
00:59:58People already know you're dating.
00:59:59Well, I mean, this will be the first time people are actually correct about our relationship status.
01:00:05All right.
01:00:06And what about you, Blake?
01:00:08Your contract?
01:00:10Let's just end the contract here.
01:00:12We'll pay you what we owe and finish with that.
01:00:15All right.
01:00:16And what about your secretary, Jerome?
01:00:18Still going to continue with that?
01:00:22Yeah, I'll still keep my job, Alan.
01:00:25All right.
01:00:26Well, she's mad at her mind.
01:00:38No way.
01:00:41You've trusted the wrong person again, Alan.
01:00:50I need you to clear my schedule for today.
01:00:52Yeah, let me see.
01:00:53You need to clear it.
01:00:54Okay, I'm going to go see Blake.
01:00:55She's not feeling well.
01:00:57Love, of course, of course.
01:00:57I understand.
01:01:01You need to listen to me for a second.
01:01:05I'm sorry.
01:01:06I shouldn't have hired her.
01:01:09Yeah, I told you that before.
01:01:11But you didn't listen to me.
01:01:12And now we're here, okay?
01:01:14She leaked all of Blake's information, including her home address in the village.
01:01:18She's not safe anymore.
01:01:20What am I supposed-
01:01:21Do you understand how bad this is?
01:01:23How am I supposed to face her?
01:01:24Just-
01:01:25Just talk to her.
01:01:26I'll take care of the rest, yeah?
01:01:28You do your job.
01:01:30I'll do mine.
01:01:42What's in the bag?
01:01:45Where are you going?
01:01:48Hey, you can't leave unless you tell me what's going on.
01:01:53What does it look like when we met that lady?
01:01:56What?
01:01:56No, you can't leave.
01:01:58We can fix this.
01:01:59It's not over-
01:02:00No, no.
01:02:00Everything about me is on the internet, okay?
01:02:03I can't take it anymore.
01:02:04People are calling me a gold digger and selfish and fake.
01:02:08You're not fake.
01:02:10Blake, just give me a chance, okay?
01:02:12I can fix everything.
01:02:15I can't do this anymore, Ben.
01:02:17This isn't me.
01:02:18This isn't who I am.
01:02:19Blake, I love you so much.
01:02:22Just let me do something to fix it.
01:02:25I promise.
01:02:26Go.
01:02:28Just go.
01:02:29I can't-
01:02:29I can't do this anymore.
01:02:33Just go.
01:02:47Good work, Oliver.
01:02:50Anything for you?
01:02:52So, um, where's your part of the deal?
01:02:57I think I already paid you.
01:02:59Yeah, yeah you did.
01:03:02I'm talking about our date.
01:03:06Oliver, I was just kidding.
01:03:11You were kidding?
01:03:13Yeah, I thought you realised that.
01:03:16Look, we're just so different.
01:03:21What do you mean by that?
01:03:23Well, let's just say I'm really useful to lots of different journalists.
01:03:30They want to date me and get the inside scoop and I just can't let that happen.
01:03:35Wait, so you think I can't do my job without you?
01:03:40Obviously.
01:03:41I practically wrote your last few articles.
01:03:44Wow.
01:03:49But I just couldn't date a reporter.
01:03:52I need someone who's on the same level as me.
01:03:55You understand.
01:03:59I've got a healing.
01:04:06On the same level as you.
01:04:11We'll see about that.
01:04:19Hello?
01:04:22Yeah, I'm sorry.
01:04:23Ben's sick right now.
01:04:24That's why he wasn't on set today.
01:04:26Yeah, if we could make another date for the shoot, that would be amazing.
01:04:30Yeah.
01:04:31Yeah, thank you very much.
01:04:33All right.
01:04:35Okay, bye.
01:04:43Please pick up Ben.
01:04:51This is the legal notice I'm writing here.
01:04:57Find and double the amount paid.
01:05:02It's good of you to come and collect it yourself.
01:05:07It's not negotiable.
01:05:12I will take this, but I need to tell you something first.
01:05:17Fine.
01:05:18But it's not going to change the fact that I'm going to sue you no matter what.
01:05:22Let's take down Ria together.
01:05:27Are you loyal to nobody?
01:05:28You really are a piece of work.
01:05:30Ria betrayed me, so I want to take her down.
01:05:35All right.
01:05:37But if you double cross me again, I'll make your life a living hell.
01:05:42Ria paid me from the very start to write about Ben.
01:05:46She started all this.
01:05:57I can never make anyone happy.
01:06:03Blake deserves all the happiness.
01:06:19What?
01:06:21Read the headline I sent you.
01:06:40I understand your decision to leave, but I hope you know Ben loves you very much.
01:06:47But in the end, it's your life.
01:06:48I won't force you to do anything.
01:06:55Ria will be facing the consequences of her actions.
01:06:58She hired a lawyer to write fake articles about you and Ben.
01:07:02The chats have been made public.
01:07:06Good for her.
01:07:07It's the least she deserves.
01:07:10And we'll write a statement for you.
01:07:12And file a lawsuit against Ria for invading your privacy.
01:07:17It's fine, Alan.
01:07:19You don't have to waste all that money on me.
01:07:21I'm just a regular person.
01:07:24So what?
01:07:26Regular people don't deserve respect?
01:07:33You know, I can't ruin the career that Ben has worked.
01:07:38It's so hard to achieve.
01:07:42It's why I'm leaving for the village tomorrow.
01:07:45And I would really appreciate it if you could not tell Ben about this, please.
01:07:55Blank.
01:07:57Just take the check, please.
01:08:02I rarely did any good for Ben, Alan.
01:08:06See ya.
01:08:21Thank you for bearing with me.
01:08:22Thank you for bearing with me.
01:08:38Thank you for bearing with me.
01:08:39One last time.
01:08:43It's fine.
01:08:45Okay.
01:08:51You're making the right decision, Blake.
01:08:55I don't deserve to have you.
01:08:58All I've done is just cause you trouble, and you've had enough trouble because of me.
01:09:04So I'm glad that you're making the right decision for yourself.
01:09:11It's not about you, Ben.
01:09:14You have dedicated your entire life to your career, and I don't want to ruin that for you.
01:09:20All that matters to me is you.
01:09:22And without you, nothing else matters.
01:09:26I don't know.
01:09:29I'm glad you met.
01:09:34I'm gonna, um, I'm gonna walk from here.
01:09:38You shouldn't come.
01:09:50Hey.
01:09:52Do you want to come meet my family?
01:10:03Will.
