00:00:05I must have you.
00:00:11Calvin Princess.
00:00:13And I you werewolf king.
00:00:17Shihara heard tales that the werewolf king was the greatest lover in all the realm.
00:00:22Now she would know the truth.
00:00:25She straddled him.
00:00:28No.
00:00:29He takes charge.
00:00:31It's hotter.
00:00:36Um.
00:00:38Uh.
00:00:41The werewolf king.
00:00:45The werewolf king.
00:00:48Think.
00:00:50Resets the climax of the book.
00:00:51It has to be steamy AF.
00:00:59How does MK get inspiration?
00:01:10The werewolf king swept his princess into the bed.
00:01:28He tore her dress and kissed down her body.
00:01:36His burning lips trailing lower.
00:01:40And lower.
00:01:42And lower.
00:01:44And.
00:01:47Miss Von Klimt.
00:01:48Hi.
00:01:49So.
00:01:50How's my favorite romance author?
00:01:53Yeah.
00:01:53Fine.
00:01:54Everything's okay.
00:01:55My books are still selling.
00:01:56Right?
00:01:57Hotter than La Boo Boo's.
00:01:59Listen.
00:01:59I have a special assignment for you.
00:02:01You've heard of MK Roth.
00:02:03Right?
00:02:03I love him.
00:02:04I mean.
00:02:06His writing.
00:02:07Fabulous.
00:02:08We'll talk more about it when you're in LA.
00:02:10You're coming tomorrow.
00:02:12Tomorrow?
00:02:21One more chapter and you can finish this book just right, Max.
00:02:27Stop blinking like that.
00:02:29What?
00:02:34Oh.
00:02:35Forget writing.
00:02:36You need to be pitching for the Dodgers.
00:02:39Very funny, Tony.
00:02:41Well.
00:02:43What's going on?
00:02:44I still can't finish the novel.
00:02:47Seven years of hard work and it still rides on this last chapter.
00:02:50Well, why don't you just chat GBT?
00:02:53Okay, I'm kidding, Mr. Integrity.
00:02:55Look, why don't we just leave the workshop for a while?
00:02:58Huh?
00:02:59We're meeting with EMU Publishing.
00:03:00No.
00:03:02I should be writing.
00:03:03Hey.
00:03:03You said it yourself, Max.
00:03:04You haven't published in seven years.
00:03:07Look.
00:03:08You wanna keep this mansion?
00:03:09Huh?
00:03:10You wanna keep this Apple laptop you just hurled across the room?
00:03:14We gotta do some business.
00:03:22There he is.
00:03:23That's the spirit.
00:03:25Good.
00:03:26Oh.
00:03:27Do me a favor.
00:03:28Take a shower before we go.
00:03:30You smell like the feet.
00:03:43I am so sorry I'm late.
00:03:45We had an emergency landing in Tucson.
00:03:46Miss Longcliffe still has some time before 3 p.m.
00:03:49Hurry.
00:03:50Amazing.
00:03:51I gotta sit.
00:03:56I gotta sit.
00:03:57M.K. Roth?
00:03:59Am I dreaming?
00:04:00Hey.
00:04:01We're walking here, twerp.
00:04:02Get out of the way.
00:04:03Hey.
00:04:04Why don't you show the lady some respect?
00:04:06Did M.K. Roth just call me a lady?
00:04:09Lisa!
00:04:11I'm waiting!
00:04:19I'm working on a deal with M.K. Roth, the biggest name in fiction.
00:04:25We are in talks to publish his new novel here at EMU Publishing.
00:04:31M.K. Roth is a new novel.
00:04:33I've waited years for this.
00:04:34He's my all-time favorite author.
00:04:36Here's the thing.
00:04:37I have a little crush on him.
00:04:39M.K.
00:04:40Max.
00:04:42I am crazy about him.
00:04:44That face.
00:04:46That hair.
00:04:47The face of a generation.
00:04:49Exactly.
00:04:51Normally, I can get any guy I want.
00:04:53Anytime I want.
00:04:55Just look at me.
00:04:56But Max is different.
00:04:57My usual tactics aren't working.
00:05:01What does that have to do with me?
00:05:02I was thinking, who better to play Cupid than my best-selling romance author, Heidi Brushfire?
00:05:11You want me to be your date doctor?
00:05:14Have I ever told you how much I love this pen name?
00:05:19You came up with it.
00:05:21Nobody writes romance like you do, Lisa.
00:05:25You must get dick like nobody's business.
00:05:28How do I tell her I've never had a steamy romance like in my books?
00:05:32Last time I had sex was college and he turned out to be gay.
00:05:36It's all just fiction.
00:05:38Made up.
00:05:39Don't be modest, Lisa.
00:05:40I am crushing hard here.
00:05:43I'll double your next advance.
00:05:46How's 50K sound?
00:05:4850,000?
00:05:50With that much money I could afford the living nurse moms always wanted.
00:05:53I'm not hearing a no, so that is a yes.
00:05:56You'll stay with me.
00:05:58You'll have the guest room and the pool all to yourself.
00:06:09Showtime.
00:06:23So we meet again.
00:06:26Guess I wasn't dreaming.
00:06:28Guess I wasn't either.
00:06:31Lisa has to get ready.
00:06:33I'll walk her out.
00:06:38Look, I know Giselle's the CEO, but she's got an ass that could make a stripper.
00:06:42I wasn't looking.
00:06:44Who's her friend?
00:06:47Don't even think about going for Max.
00:06:49You are here to be my dating coach, not to date my man.
00:06:54Got it.
00:06:54You better.
00:06:56Max and I are going to have the hottest kids ever.
00:07:00What were you saying about a party?
00:07:02My people will explain everything.
00:07:04Open.
00:07:10Lisa Brown, Giselle's lawyer.
00:07:12Can you sign this NDA?
00:07:13Okay.
00:07:13I'm the stylist.
00:07:15I need your measurements.
00:07:16I'm the dog walker.
00:07:17And this is Poo Poo.
00:07:21What did I get myself into?
00:07:28Lisa, hurry up.
00:07:32I need a little flicker right here.
00:07:34Yes.
00:07:34Perfect.
00:07:35Perfect.
00:07:42I can barely walk in these.
00:07:44You'll learn.
00:07:45Tonight's my first night meeting Max outside the office.
00:07:48Help me sweep him off his feet.
00:07:50I'll do my best.
00:07:51I just wish I had more time to prepare.
00:07:53I believe in you.
00:07:55Heidi Brushfire.
00:08:03Ah, no.
00:08:04I hate parties.
00:08:05You know this.
00:08:06Oh, come on.
00:08:06It's part of the job, Max.
00:08:08Hey, listen.
00:08:09I want you to meet this producer.
00:08:10He wants to do a movie based on your first novel.
00:08:13Come on.
00:08:13How many times do I have to tell you?
00:08:15I don't care about Hollywood.
00:08:17I want my books to stay books.
00:08:24What?
00:08:25On second thought, maybe there is somebody here I want to talk to.
00:08:29What are you talking about?
00:08:31Max is coming.
00:08:32Tell me what to say.
00:08:34Ryan.
00:08:35I thought this was your thing.
00:08:36I need lines right fucking now.
00:08:38No!
00:08:39Ah!
00:08:42Ah!
00:08:43Ah!
00:08:45Ah!
00:08:48Ah!
00:08:49Ah!
00:08:50Ah!
00:08:50Ah!
00:08:51Ah!
00:08:52Ah!
00:08:53I am so sorry.
00:08:55I didn't mean to.
00:08:56The next time you want to use my jacket, just ask me.
00:08:59Come on.
00:09:00Come on.
00:09:03Lisa.
00:09:04A word!
00:09:07Stop acting like a fool and do your fucking job!
00:09:10Sorry, it wasn't my fault.
00:09:13All will be forgiven if you can get Max to ask me out.
00:09:18Tell me what to do.
00:09:22Well.
00:09:24In Elvenless, Shihara the Elven Princess attracts men with her mystery.
00:09:29Mmm.
00:09:29She's quiet.
00:09:30She speaks in riddles.
00:09:32She has an ethereal eroticism to her.
00:09:35Like a sexy alien.
00:09:38That'll work.
00:09:39Be alluring.
00:09:40He'll come to you.
00:09:41If you fuck this up, not only are you going to lose your bonus, I'm canceling your publishing contract.
00:09:48What?
00:09:49Yeah.
00:09:49You think I need you to push the Heidi Brushfire books?
00:09:53I own the pen name and the rights.
00:10:06Sorry about Lisa.
00:10:08What a klutz.
00:10:09Try not to spill this one.
00:10:15I'm sorry.
00:10:16That was a bad joke.
00:10:18I feel like I'm falling on my face here too, even if I'm not literally doing it.
00:10:23So.
00:10:25Max.
00:10:27What's up?
00:10:28What's the scariest kind of writer?
00:10:33A ghost writer.
00:10:35Oh no.
00:10:36You know.
00:10:36When I told her to speak in riddles, I didn't mean literally.
00:10:40Now she's telling dad jokes.
00:10:46Well you have a mysterious sense of humor, Giselle.
00:10:51What the hell?
00:10:53It actually worked?
00:10:59Why are writers always cold?
00:11:02No.
00:11:04No.
00:11:05Because they're surrounded by drafts.
00:11:07Yeah.
00:11:07Just.
00:11:12Thank you, Giselle, for the entertainment for the night.
00:11:18I'm gonna head out of here.
00:11:19But.
00:11:20And please.
00:11:22Respect the personal space.
00:11:24Okay?
00:11:27Have a good night.
00:11:29No, sweet.
00:11:30Giselle.
00:11:31Just fucking stop.
00:11:32Okay?
00:11:32You're ruining everything.
00:11:36I warned you.
00:11:37You are going back to Indiana.
00:11:39Right.
00:11:40Now.
00:11:40Ah!
00:11:41Yes dad!
00:11:43Ah!
00:11:43Ah!
00:11:45Ah!
00:11:47Can you let go of my hair, please?
00:11:49Ah!
00:11:50I look like an idiot in front of Max tonight.
00:11:53And it's all your fault!
00:11:55Give me another chance, please.
00:11:56As if!
00:11:58You're not a date doctor!
00:11:59You're not even fit to be a romance author.
00:12:03Not in my company.
00:12:04No.
00:12:05I'm begging you, Ms. Von Klimt.
00:12:06I can't lose my publishing deal.
00:12:08I'm supporting my mom.
00:12:09She needs me.
00:12:14You're on thin fucking ice, Lisa.
00:12:18Thank you, Ms. Von.
00:12:19Don't thank me!
00:12:21Go get me, my man.
00:12:30Nice pool.
00:12:31Tell me all about L.A.
00:12:33I should be home with you, Mom.
00:12:34I can roll around on my own for a few days.
00:12:37So what's the hubbub?
00:12:39I actually can't talk about it because I signed an NDA, but...
00:12:42The good news is I might be getting a big bonus if I don't screw things up.
00:12:46When have you messed anything up?
00:12:48Except your dating life.
00:12:49Mom!
00:12:50Speaking of...
00:12:51I made you a Tinder profile.
00:12:52You already have matches.
00:12:54Remember Billy from high school?
00:12:56He's been saying a lot of sexy things to you.
00:12:59Maybe too sexy.
00:13:01Could you please not butt into my love life?
00:13:03I know I haven't dated in a while, but that doesn't mean I want my mom playing matchmaker.
00:13:07Wouldn't it be funny if people found out romance writer Heidi Brushfire was really a spinster in training from rural
00:13:14Indiana?
00:13:16Hopefully Ms. Von Klimt doesn't find out.
00:13:18What?
00:13:19I have to get to work.
00:13:20I have to get to work.
00:13:45I have to get to work.
00:13:48I've been reading books all day and I haven't learned anything that could help Ms. Von Klimt.
00:13:52I'm screwed!
00:14:03I'm so sorry.
00:14:09Please don't recognize me.
00:14:10Please don't recognize me.
00:14:12Please 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.
00:14:22Now I wish I was dead.
00:14:24Hey.
00:14:25Why are you crying?
00:14:27Okay?
00:14:40I was just, um, reading a sad book.
00:14:48And what were you reading?
00:14:51Think, Lisa.
00:14:52You're a writer.
00:14:53You know about books.
00:14:55Wait.
00:14:56I know.
00:14:57Wuthering Heights.
00:14:58Not a lie.
00:14:59It does make me cry.
00:15:01Wuthering Heights?
00:15:02Well, that's one of my favorites.
00:15:04It makes me cry too.
00:15:06It's so beautiful.
00:15:08And 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.
00:15:31You can admit you like me.
00:15:38Okay.
00:15:39I'm a fan.
00:15:41I read your books, because I know you have a new one coming out.
00:15:44So, I was just rereading your last one for about the tenth time.
00:15:50You read my book ten times?
00:15:52I'm a writer too.
00:15:54Miss von Klint's my publisher.
00:15:56So I've heard.
00:16:02Funny seeing you here, aren't you supposed to be reckless?
00:16:05Whoever said that obviously spends no time in the library, because I'm here all the time.
00:16:11I love the smell of old books.
00:16:13What are you checking out?
00:16:15It's actually this new author.
00:16:18Um...
00:16:19Have you heard of Heidi Brushfire?
00:16:23But...
00:16:24How...
00:16:25I googled it.
00:16:26I'm not stalking you.
00:16:28I promise.
00:16:31And here is the romance section.
00:16:37Here we go.
00:16:39Here we go.
00:16:40Oh, yes.
00:16:42I can't wait to read this.
00:16:44Oh, could you take a picture of us?
00:16:46I'm a big fan of yours, Miss Brushfire.
00:16:48Oh.
00:16:50Okay.
00:16:57Looking forward to your next book.
00:17:01That never happens in Indiana.
00:17:05Back to Wuthering Heights.
00:17:07Not to brag.
00:17:09But I happen to own a first edition.
00:17:11Come by 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.
00:17:41So 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.
00:18:04Actually, he invited me over tomorrow afternoon.
00:18:07You?
00:18:08What did I tell you about snaking my man?
00:18:12Pack your bags!
00:18:14You're out of here!
00:18:15Oh, wait, wait!
00:18:17Let me explain.
00:18:20You'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.
00:18:32Not a bad plan.
00:18:38What do you think, Poopoo?
00:18:41Should 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, they picked at his heart.
00:19:13Then again, maybe he deserved to suffer.
00:19:27Who would read this self-pitying garbage?
00:19:30I've got to snap out of it.
00:19:34Lisa!
00:19:36I 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?
00:20:02Water'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.
00:20:32I leave for New York this week.
00:20:34If you don't have results by the time that I'm back,
00:20:38you're out of a job and a publishing deal.
00:20:42Got it?
00:20:44So, Max, seeing anyone lately?
00:20:48I'm seeing you.
00:20:50Right now.
00:20:51I mean, romantically.
00:20:55What do you want in a woman?
00:21:01Just look in the mirror.
00:21:06You 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.
00:21:23I don't think.
00:21:30Lisa.
00:21:32It'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.
00:21:47There's no damage.
00:21:50Luckily.
00:21:51I'm so sorry.
00:21:52Let me clean up.
00:22:01So when's the new book coming out?
00:22:04As soon 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, I didn't know.
00:22:17Unlike some public figures, I don't like to broadcast my personal life.
00:22:21Anyway, I'll finish the book, I just can't find the ending.
00:22:24When I have writer's block, I usually try to chalk it out with someone.
00:22:27Usually my mom, she gives surprisingly good notes.
00:22:31Thanks, Lisa, but I don't think my mom can help me with this issue.
00:22:36Sorry.
00:22:37Stupid.
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.
00:22:59Thanks for coming by, and getting me out of my head for a bit.
00:23:05Anytime.
00:23:17Later, dude.
00:23:26As I left the house, Max continued his battle with the blank page.
00:23:32I couldn't help wondering if I'd ever see him again.
00:23:36Well, I guess I could maybe do something about that.
00:23:49I need more info to work with before Miss Von Klimt gets back.
00:23:52But how do I ask Max to hang out without 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?
00:24:14What?
00:24:17What am I thinking?
00:24:18Max goes to red carpet events and lives in a mansion.
00:24:21Why did I ask him to do the most boring thing on earth?
00:24:27No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:24:28He's responding.
00:24:30Please let me down gently, Max.
00:24:32My fragile heart can't take it.
00:24:39I really needed this.
00:24:43I got the big house, you know, but no pool.
00:24:45You're welcome anytime.
00:24:47I mean, I'm sure it's cool with Miss Von Klimt.
00:24:51It's her house.
00:25:04Oh, still at it, I see.
00:25:09Sorry.
00:25:11Creepy, right?
00:25:12We can be creepy together.
00:25:20You're actually reading it?
00:25:22Are you joking?
00:25:23I can't put it down.
00:25:25It's like the sexiest book I've ever read.
00:25:27Hey, where do you get your ideas?
00:25:30Probably not where you think.
00:25:32My love life's pretty unexciting.
00:25:35Non-existent, actually.
00:25:37I find that hard to believe.
00:25:39You didn't know me growing up.
00:25:41I was an ugly duckling.
00:25:44It was easier making my characters fall in love than...
00:25:47actually risking it myself.
00:25:50Well, Lisa, you're not an ugly duckling anymore.
00:25:56I think you should come out of your shell.
00:26:01So, any other thoughts about the book?
00:26:04Yeah, one more.
00:26:06The next book you release, make it under your name.
00:26:10You are too good.
00:26:12I'll think about it.
00:26:15Hey, can you get my bag for me?
00:26:27Be cool, Lisa.
00:26:29You're just rubbing some lotion on your hero crush's back.
00:26:32Think of Miss Van Clempt.
00:26:51So, Max, I was wondering.
00:26:54The love interest in your last novel,
00:26:57is she based on your ex?
00:27:04Shoot!
00:27:05I said the wrong thing.
00:27:07Jesus, Lisa, you must be the worst dating coach in history.
00:27:14Yeah, I guess what I don't post online,
00:27:16it still comes out in my writing.
00:27:20Yeah.
00:27:23She's, uh...
00:27:24She's based on my ex-wife.
00:27:27Very different time.
00:27:30It's...
00:27:30It's hard to even imagine myself having a...
00:27:34Mantic bone in my body.
00:27:36Because all I do is write...
00:27:39And avoid writing.
00:27:42Can I ask what happened?
00:27:44I thought she was my...
00:27:48Pixie...
00:27:49Manic...
00:27:50Dream girl.
00:27:52But...
00:27:53She was just manic.
00:27:55She was aggressive.
00:27:57She was type A.
00:27:59Workaholic.
00:28:00Obsessed...
00:28:01With status...
00:28:02And money.
00:28:03Sounds like Miss Van Clempt.
00:28:05Is that your type?
00:28:08It used to be.
00:28:10Yeah.
00:28:14But...
00:28:16I'm an introvert, you know?
00:28:18I would much rather prefer...
00:28:20A pool day like this...
00:28:22Than some random L.A. party.
00:28:25If I decide to remarry...
00:28:28It's gonna be someone who's like me.
00:28:33Maybe even a writer.
00:28:41Oh no.
00:28:42Today was supposed to be platonic.
00:28:43Abort.
00:28:44Abort.
00:28:45What's wrong, Lisa?
00:28:46I'm getting hot.
00:28:47Are you thirsty?
00:28:47I am so thirsty.
00:28:48I am so thirsty.
00:28:49Oh!
00:28:49Ah!
00:28:51Ah!
00:28:53Ah!
00:28:54Ah!
00:28:54Ah!
00:28:55Ah!
00:28:58Ah!
00:28:59Ah!
00:29:03Ah!
00:29:11You okay?
00:29:12Worry about that.
00:29:13That was nuts.
00:29:14Ah!
00:29:15Hey!
00:29:17That's so mean!
00:29:30That's so mean!
00:29:31I'm so mean!
00:29:38I'm pruning!
00:29:39You look pretty good for a prune.
00:29:50My phone.
00:30:00Jeez.
00:30:01Is she psychic or something?
00:30:04Miss Von Clem, hi.
00:30:07Any updates on Max?
00:30:11Um.
00:30:16Who are you waving to?
00:30:18I just invited a friend over to swim.
00:30:20A fuck party?
00:30:22Show me.
00:30:23No!
00:30:23Of course not!
00:30:27Me likey.
00:30:28Just don't bang in my pool.
00:30:30I had it cleaned last week.
00:30:31So, what's happening with Max?
00:30:34I'm getting plenty of material.
00:30:37Music to my ears.
00:30:39Poopos too.
00:30:40I have good news as well.
00:30:42Got the contract all settled with Tony.
00:30:45And we are signing Max to EMU Publishing.
00:30:48That's amazing!
00:30:50I'll talk to you about it more when I see you.
00:30:52Poopoos got a poopoo.
00:30:53Poopoos got a poopoo.
00:31:01How about some dinner tonight?
00:31:03In a little spot by the beach.
00:31:05I don't normally go out, but tonight feels special.
00:31:09If you ruin this for Miss Von Clem, your writing career is done for.
00:31:14What did you say?
00:31:21Giselle's contract just came in.
00:31:22Looks good.
00:31:23Ball's in our court.
00:31:24Yeah, maybe I should read it myself.
00:31:26Come on.
00:31:27You don't trust me?
00:31:28Okay.
00:31:31But make sure that she doesn't turn my books into some Hollywood cash-grab franchise, okay?
00:31:36Hey, you're the boss, boss.
00:31:43Max paddled towards me with that same cheeky smirk he'd given me all day.
00:31:49If I didn't know better, I'd swear he wanted to kiss me.
00:31:54Lisa?
00:31:56Sorry about that.
00:31:57I had a business call.
00:32:00What are you writing?
00:32:04Max, stop!
00:32:05Is this your diary?
00:32:07Oh, no!
00:32:07Max has my journal!
00:32:09How could I be so stupid?!
00:32:19On second thought, I would not want anybody reading my diary.
00:32:28You never know when inspiration will strike.
00:32:37Have you felt inspired lately?
00:32:40Yes, I have.
00:32:41Maybe you're my muse.
00:32:43In all seriousness, though, it's nice spending time with another writer.
00:32:47Makes me feel like less of a weirdo.
00:32:50Weirdo?
00:32:51Max, you're one of the most famous authors in the world.
00:32:55It gets lonely.
00:33:07What's wrong?
00:33:09That food's amazing.
00:33:11Can I ask you a favor?
00:33:13Would you be willing to read my manuscript?
00:33:17Maybe you can help me write the ending.
00:33:21Me?
00:33:24I'm signing to EMU Publishing, so we're basically co-workers.
00:33:28And you're a fantastic writer.
00:33:30And you know my work.
00:33:32And you know that I'm struggling with this.
00:33:36I trust you, Lisa.
00:33:39You trust me?
00:33:42Yeah.
00:33:45Should I not?
00:33:46You might not trust me if you know that I'm an undercover date doctor.
00:33:52I'd be honored to read it, Max.
00:33:56Thanks.
00:33:56Please.
00:34:01It would mean a lot to me.
00:34:10After dinner, we can print it at the library.
00:34:16Stop by my place to read it.
00:34:18Your place?
00:34:20That's okay, isn't it?
00:34:21He can't really be trying to sleep with me, right?
00:34:24He just wants to give me his manuscript.
00:34:27Because if he does have other ideas,
00:34:29I'm not sure I'll be able to control myself.
00:34:35Check, please.
00:35:00Careful.
00:35:02Clumsy girl.
00:35:03I'm only clumsy around you.
00:35:05Is that right?
00:35:07Please.
00:35:08Do not share this with anyone.
00:35:10The only people I want reading it are you and me.
00:35:14Okay?
00:35:16Thank you for trusting me.
00:35:23You make it easy.
00:35:26Max.
00:35:27They can't be.
00:35:35Oh my god, Max.
00:35:41Oh shit.
00:37:34Oh no, I'm at Max's place.
00:37:37Oh my gosh.
00:37:39Oh my gosh!
00:37:40I can't believe I slept with Max!
00:37:43Miss Von Klimt will murder me!
00:37:52Relax, Lisa.
00:37:53Max is famous.
00:37:54He probably has one-night stands all the time.
00:37:57No reason he can't still fall for Miss Von Klimt.
00:38:01Lisa?
00:38:02What are you doing?
00:38:06Max, look, we don't have to talk about this.
00:38:09I'm a romance writer.
00:38:10I know what this is.
00:38:12What is this?
00:38:13Fun in the sun.
00:38:15Too much wine at dinner.
00:38:17One thing lit to another.
00:38:19It's not a big deal.
00:38:20I haven't slept with anyone, Lisa, since my wife left me.
00:38:25Oh.
00:38:26I want to see you again.
00:38:29And not just to get your notes.
00:38:41Me too.
00:38:46What's that?
00:39:00Giselle?
00:39:02What are you doing here?
00:39:06Miss Von Klimt?
00:39:07She's supposed to be out of town until Friday.
00:39:13Where's Spector?
00:39:15When Tony told me you were ready to sign the contract,
00:39:18I flew home early to personally deliver mimosas.
00:39:23Hope you're thirsty.
00:39:25Thanks, but it's not a very good time for me.
00:39:28What's wrong?
00:39:29You have company?
00:39:33Good thing I'm not the jealous type.
00:39:36Who's the lucky lady?
00:39:38Gentleman never tells.
00:39:42Thanks again.
00:39:44I'll see you at the signing.
00:39:45Cheers.
00:39:46Max!
00:39:56Mimosas, anyone?
00:40:00Lisa?
00:40:27Giselle!
00:40:29You're home early.
00:40:30Did you have a sleepover with your fuck buddy last night?
00:40:34What was his name, by the way?
00:40:36He was just some guy from Tinder.
00:40:39Probably used a fake name anyway.
00:40:40Which was?
00:40:41Ma-
00:40:42Er-
00:40:44Jerry!
00:40:46Jerry McIntosh.
00:40:48Almost sounded like you were going to say Max.
00:40:52That's funny.
00:40:55What's going on with my guy anyways?
00:40:57You know, I've been having the nastiest dreams about him.
00:41:02I saw him a few times while you were away.
00:41:04Everything's in my journal.
00:41:05Let me see!
00:41:07My handwriting's a mess.
00:41:09I'll retype it for you by tonight.
00:41:12Okay.
00:41:13Nice work.
00:41:14I'm sending half your bonus.
00:41:16There better be some juicy shit in there.
00:41:21Thanks, Miss Van Clemsen.
00:41:29Oh, what is up, hot stuff?
00:41:31Keep it in your pants for once.
00:41:33Oh, come on.
00:41:34Everything's going according to plan.
00:41:36I'll see you at the signing.
00:41:37Oh, I will be there, beautiful.
00:41:51I'm getting carpal tunnel.
00:41:52This is, like, the longest contract I've ever signed.
00:41:55Hey, for the biggest check.
00:41:56Huh?
00:42:01Well, you just bought yourself a bestseller.
00:42:04Let's toast.
00:42:13You're awfully quiet today, Giselle.
00:42:16You know I'm thrilled.
00:42:17I'm your biggest fan.
00:42:19I was just thinking about your book that I finished last night.
00:42:23I was wondering if I should read it again before I return it to the library.
00:42:30I love libraries, but I wouldn't take you as the type.
00:42:33Oh, I love the smell of old books.
00:42:36Me too.
00:42:39Ha-ha.
00:42:41Hey.
00:42:44For you.
00:42:49To the thorn tree.
00:42:51To the thorn tree.
00:42:56Well, when do we get to see the manuscript?
00:42:58I'm dying to read it.
00:43:00Just waiting for notes from a trusted reader.
00:43:02Really?
00:43:03Who?
00:43:03Don't worry.
00:43:04I'll send it soon.
00:43:09Well, that should get going.
00:43:11So, Tony, thanks for the champagne.
00:43:12You got it, buddy.
00:43:13And I'll see you.
00:43:14Bye, Max.
00:43:16We'll be in touch.
00:43:21We signed, babe.
00:43:22We are almost there.
00:43:23And if everything else goes according to plan, you're going to be out of bankruptcy.
00:43:27And we are going to be filthy, stinking rich.
00:43:29You always know what to say to a girl, Tony.
00:43:33Well, I also know what to do to a girl, too.
00:43:38How's the nurse working out, Mom?
00:43:39Nice to have someone get the wine glasses down from the top shelf for me.
00:43:43I am so glad I can finally afford someone for you.
00:43:46Thank you, sugar.
00:43:48Just don't spend all your bonus on me.
00:43:52Gotta go.
00:43:53Love you.
00:43:58Miss Von Klimt, hi.
00:44:00Max?
00:44:02Am I interrupting something?
00:44:04No.
00:44:07But I...
00:44:09So, can I come in?
00:44:11Resist, Lisa.
00:44:12Miss Von Klimt sees Max in here.
00:44:13I'm dead meat.
00:44:24At least I'll die happy.
00:44:25I'm dead meat.
00:45:21Max's car?
00:45:22What's he doing here?
00:45:28I finished the manuscript.
00:45:31It might just be your best book yet.
00:45:34That means a lot's coming from you.
00:45:36What do I do about the ending?
00:45:43The main character goes through so much heartbreak.
00:45:46He has a choice at the end.
00:45:48To live in pain or to move on.
00:45:50To write the final chapter, why not consider how you feel?
00:45:53Lisa, do you think you'll find love again?
00:45:56Or not?
00:46:00I never thought I would even trust a woman after Heather cheated on me.
00:46:06But now, I'm seeing some light shine through the dark clouds.
00:46:14Maybe you...
00:46:16I mean, James.
00:46:19You should get a happy ending.
00:46:21Give the readers some hope.
00:46:24Max!
00:46:26Max!
00:46:28Oh, my God.
00:46:29Oh, my God.
00:46:30Giselle's home.
00:46:33Aren't you guys friends?
00:46:34We are, but I just don't want her to find out about us yet.
00:46:38Why not?
00:46:41Because you're a private person.
00:46:43It's none of her business.
00:46:46You're sweet.
00:46:51Lisa!
00:46:52Is Max in there?
00:46:59Max!
00:47:00What are you doing here?
00:47:04Discussing his manuscript.
00:47:08Lisa gives great notes.
00:47:12Well, actually, I'm glad you're here.
00:47:15Ocean Vuong's having a reading tonight.
00:47:17Are you free?
00:47:18I love Ocean Vuong.
00:47:21You should come with.
00:47:23Actually, Lisa has other plans.
00:47:25Too bad.
00:47:26We'll miss you.
00:47:28Bye.
00:47:29Bye.
00:47:33Bye.
00:47:48Are you sure you don't want to get a drink with Ocean?
00:47:50I mean, you know, I was tempted.
00:47:52Ocean's a sweetheart, but I'm not much of a going-out girl.
00:47:57I'd much rather stay in and curl up with a good book.
00:48:00I don't know.
00:48:01You seemed pretty cozy at that industry event the other night.
00:48:03Because I'm good at my job.
00:48:05You know, I'm a bookworm, Max.
00:48:07That is why I run a publishing company.
00:48:10Yeah, but didn't you inherit that company?
00:48:12What's your point?
00:48:15Okay, what's your favorite book?
00:48:16I'd have to say Wuthering Heights.
00:48:18It always makes me cry.
00:48:20Wuthering Heights?
00:48:21What?
00:48:21You don't like it?
00:48:22I've just been hearing a lot about that book lately.
00:48:25It's actually one of my favorites.
00:48:26Oh.
00:48:27Makes me cry.
00:48:31It's getting really cold outside.
00:48:33Do you want to come in for a coffee?
00:48:36Um...
00:48:37Yeah.
00:48:38Yeah, sure.
00:48:41Sorry.
00:48:49I know it's worked.
00:48:51I can't watch.
00:48:57I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression, Giselle.
00:49:00Well, I like you.
00:49:01And we have a lot of similar interests.
00:49:04I misread the situation, too.
00:49:06I like you, too.
00:49:08I'm seeing someone.
00:49:10And I really like her.
00:49:11And I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:49:15Maybe we can just be friends.
00:49:17I mean, we work together.
00:49:17It's a lot less complicated that way.
00:49:19I like her.
00:49:20I like her.
00:49:22I like her.
00:49:24Well, I gotta...
00:49:25I gotta get going.
00:49:26Have a good night.
00:49:28And good luck with that girl.
00:49:29Yeah.
00:49:30Thanks.
00:49:32Seeing someone?
00:49:34If it's that mousy little Lisa, I'm gonna feed that bitch rat poison.
00:49:39That home-wrecking whore has outstayed her welcome.
00:49:42Big time.
00:49:46Max and Giselle kissed.
00:49:48So what?
00:49:49That's a good thing.
00:49:50Why am I being so weird about it?
00:49:56Can we talk?
00:50:00Thanks so much for all your advice with Max.
00:50:03It's been working wonders.
00:50:04How'd it go last night?
00:50:06Let's just say I think I'll be handling things on my own from here on out.
00:50:10That's great.
00:50:11Yeah.
00:50:12I'm sending the rest of your bonus now.
00:50:15Pack your bags.
00:50:16Your car arrives in an hour.
00:50:22What?
00:50:23What did you think you were gonna move in?
00:50:25I'm rich, Lisa.
00:50:26I'm not looking for a roommate.
00:50:28I thought I'd have more time.
00:50:30For what?
00:50:32I never saw the Hollywood sign.
00:50:35Overrated.
00:50:36Pack your bags.
00:50:37Your car is gonna be here in an hour.
00:50:40Relax, poo-poo.
00:50:41I'm coming.
00:50:43Take the hint.
00:50:44Go back to Indiana and forget all about Max.
00:50:47He's in a Miss Von Klimt now.
00:50:49We were never meant to be.
00:50:52I'm reading the sequel.
00:50:54Unless we are.
00:50:55What do I do?
00:51:02What do I do?
00:51:03What do I do?
00:51:07What do I do?
00:51:08What do I do?
00:51:10What do I do?
00:51:11What do I do?
00:51:13What do I do?
00:51:13What do I do?
00:51:14What do I do?
00:51:15What do I do?
00:51:16What do I do?
00:51:16What do I do?
00:51:17What do I do?
00:51:17What do I do?
00:51:18What do I do?
00:51:19What do I do?
00:51:20What do I do?
00:51:22What do I do?
00:51:24What do I do?
00:51:26Almost to the airport.
00:51:34Can I change the destination?
00:51:40Come on, Max, be home.
00:51:47Lisa.
00:51:50What's the matter?
00:51:53I...
00:51:55I...
00:52:00Hey.
00:52:03Just breathe.
00:52:04Calm down.
00:52:06You're with me now.
00:52:07Everything's gonna be just fine.
00:52:11I...
00:52:11I don't know.
00:52:30What?
00:52:37I don't know.
00:52:40for tacos on my dime.
00:52:42Wait, I know that address.
00:52:54Max's house?
00:52:58She's dead.
00:53:09I should go.
00:53:11Or I'll miss my flight.
00:53:12I just came to say goodbye.
00:53:14I didn't expect all of this.
00:53:20Maybe it sounds crazy, Lisa.
00:53:23But I'm falling for you.
00:53:26You can stay here with me.
00:53:29As long as you want.
00:53:32Really?
00:53:34And if you miss your mom,
00:53:35I will fly her here.
00:53:37She can stay here.
00:53:38There's plenty of space.
00:53:41I'll put in ramps for her wheelchair.
00:53:44What about you and Miss Von Klimt?
00:53:46I saw you kissing last night.
00:53:48Well, then you must have missed me
00:53:50letting her down easy
00:53:51because you are the only one that I want.
00:53:57Let me think about it.
00:53:59All right?
00:54:01Take as much time as you need.
00:54:14Real smooth, Max.
00:54:21I have to admit,
00:54:22I'm curious what she's working on next.
00:54:24One little pee couldn't hurt.
00:54:34I was craving sex with Max more and more.
00:54:38Knowing he was forbidden fruit
00:54:40only made it sweeter.
00:54:52What the hell is this?
00:54:57Max, I can explain.
00:54:58You're writing about us.
00:55:00About me.
00:55:01I told you,
00:55:02my journal's private.
00:55:03Then why does it look like
00:55:04you're writing your next romance novel?
00:55:06It does.
00:55:08You know?
00:55:09I don't want my personal life
00:55:11splattered around.
00:55:13Max,
00:55:14it's just my diary.
00:55:16I'd never dream of publishing it.
00:55:18I cannot believe I fell for your
00:55:20ugly duckling story.
00:55:22Just admit it.
00:55:24You are using me
00:55:25for material.
00:55:26I can't tell Max the truth
00:55:27or it'll mean
00:55:28ratting out Ms. Von Klimt
00:55:29and that means
00:55:30losing my publishing contract.
00:55:31What do I do?
00:55:37Your silence
00:55:38says everything.
00:55:40Max,
00:55:41I never meant to hurt you.
00:55:43Don't you have a plane to catch?
00:55:44But Max!
00:55:45We're done.
00:55:47Get out,
00:55:48Lisa.
00:55:51And if I ever see this
00:55:52printed,
00:55:53you'll be hearing
00:55:54from my attorneys.
00:56:02I'm so sorry, Max.
00:56:18Need a ride, skink?
00:56:26What are you doing here?
00:56:29Bitch,
00:56:29what are you doing here?
00:56:31You're supposed to be
00:56:32at the airport right now.
00:56:34But no,
00:56:35you just had to stop by Max's
00:56:37for a little last quickie,
00:56:39didn't you?
00:56:39I can't explain.
00:56:41No,
00:56:41I brought you out here
00:56:42for a reason
00:56:43and that reason
00:56:44is not fucking Max
00:56:46behind my back.
00:56:47I trusted you.
00:56:49I'm so sorry
00:56:50I let you down.
00:56:52Max just broke up
00:56:54with me.
00:56:55You broke up?
00:56:57Max must be vulnerable.
00:56:59Maybe I'm still
00:57:00in the game after all.
00:57:04I'll forgive you
00:57:05if you leave right now.
00:57:06You can keep the money
00:57:08and the publishing deal,
00:57:10but I never
00:57:10want to see your face
00:57:12at L.A. again.
00:57:13Got it?
00:57:14Okay.
00:57:16Now beat it.
00:57:26Damn it, Lisa.
00:57:27I said to get out of here.
00:57:28We're through.
00:57:30Oh,
00:57:32Giselle.
00:57:33What are you doing here?
00:57:35I guess this is a bad time.
00:57:38Wait.
00:57:39I could use somebody
00:57:40to talk to.
00:57:45Thanks, Giselle.
00:57:47I don't think alcohol
00:57:48can solve this problem,
00:57:49though.
00:57:50Couldn't hurt.
00:58:02Here.
00:58:08What happened with Lisa?
00:58:10She was using me
00:58:12for her next romance novel.
00:58:16I found her journal.
00:58:19I should have known
00:58:20it was too good to be true.
00:58:22She's the woman
00:58:23you told me about?
00:58:25I'm so sorry.
00:58:27No, Lisa's always
00:58:29been like this.
00:58:31She's a succubus.
00:58:33Just using men
00:58:35for her perverted novels.
00:58:45Now,
00:58:46I may not know
00:58:47what to say
00:58:48to make you feel better,
00:58:49but
00:58:50I do know
00:58:52something
00:58:52that
00:58:53might distract you.
00:59:17I have just returned
00:59:19from a visit
00:59:19to my landlord,
00:59:21the solitary neighbor
00:59:22that I shall
00:59:23be troubled with.
00:59:25This is certainly
00:59:27a beautiful country.
00:59:31In all England,
00:59:32I do not believe
00:59:34that I could have
00:59:35fixed on a situation
00:59:37so completely removed
00:59:40from the stir
00:59:42of society.
01:00:07Are you going to
01:00:08mope around
01:00:08in your PJs
01:00:09forever?
01:00:11I'm a writer,
01:00:12mom.
01:00:13PJs are my uniform.
01:00:16When are you
01:00:17going to tell me
01:00:17what happened?
01:00:19How about
01:00:20getting out of the house?
01:00:21I thought we got
01:00:22Teresa so you didn't
01:00:23have to be around
01:00:23so much.
01:00:25Your Tinder matches
01:00:27are just waiting
01:00:28for a time and place.
01:00:29I don't want
01:00:30a Tinder date, mom.
01:00:31Just leave me alone.
01:00:32Please.
01:00:33See what I'm dealing
01:00:34with, Teresa.
01:00:35Goes to L.A.
01:00:36for two weeks,
01:00:37comes back
01:00:38a drama queen.
01:00:43M.K. Roth's
01:00:45Thorn Tree
01:00:45tops Time's
01:00:46bestseller list.
01:00:48Congratulations, Max.
01:00:53Miss Von Klimt?
01:00:58Looks like
01:00:59she finally got him.
01:01:09another week
01:01:11topping the
01:01:11bestseller list.
01:01:13We're breaking
01:01:14records, Max.
01:01:15I'm just glad
01:01:16that people like it.
01:01:17Like it?
01:01:18They love it.
01:01:20Now,
01:01:21you might win
01:01:21the National Book Award.
01:01:27You've been drinking
01:01:28a lot lately.
01:01:30Everything okay?
01:01:33Well,
01:01:34I know something
01:01:36that will cheer you up.
01:01:37I went to the doctor
01:01:39today.
01:01:40Guess what?
01:01:41What?
01:01:43I'm pregnant.
01:01:47You're pregnant?
01:01:48Mm-hmm.
01:01:49But how?
01:01:50How?
01:01:50We're using protection.
01:01:52Accidents happen,
01:01:53right?
01:01:54You are going
01:01:55to be such
01:01:56a great father.
01:01:58I can't wait
01:01:59to be
01:01:59Mrs. Roth.
01:02:02So you're
01:02:03keeping it?
01:02:03Why wouldn't I?
01:02:05I want this
01:02:07to work, Max.
01:02:08I love you.
01:02:21Well,
01:02:23whatever you
01:02:24want to do,
01:02:24I will support it.
01:02:33Shihara never
01:02:33loved anyone
01:02:34like the werewolf king.
01:02:36Their days
01:02:37were filled
01:02:37with long talks,
01:02:39reading,
01:02:40strolls around
01:02:40the castle,
01:02:42their nights
01:02:42with passionate
01:02:43lovemaking.
01:02:44Shihara had
01:02:45never been
01:02:45so happy.
01:02:49I can't write
01:02:50romance with
01:02:51a broken heart.
01:02:52This is torture.
01:02:55Not now,
01:02:55Mom.
01:02:57I thought
01:02:57a little gift
01:02:58might improve
01:02:59your mood.
01:03:01Thanks, Mom.
01:03:02You didn't have to.
01:03:03Your favorite author.
01:03:04Everyone's talking
01:03:05about the new book.
01:03:07It's in Oprah's
01:03:08book club.
01:03:09I'm surprised
01:03:09I haven't seen
01:03:10you reading it.
01:03:13I just didn't
01:03:14have the time.
01:03:15Thanks, Mom.
01:03:40As James
01:03:41perused
01:03:42the library,
01:03:42he saw a young
01:03:43woman in glasses
01:03:44crying over
01:03:44Wuthering Heights.
01:03:47She felt
01:03:48his presence,
01:03:51wiping her eyes
01:03:53as she returned
01:03:53his gaze.
01:03:56James had lost
01:03:57the game of love,
01:03:58but that didn't
01:03:59mean he'd never
01:04:00win again.
01:04:03A happy ending.
01:04:05He took my note.
01:04:09Maybe there's
01:04:10still hope for me.
01:04:12Millionaire author
01:04:13M.K. Roth
01:04:14to wed
01:04:14CEO
01:04:15EMU Publishing.
01:04:18They're getting
01:04:19married?
01:04:26Yes.
01:04:27Yes.
01:04:29Yes.
01:04:30Yes.
01:04:43All this
01:04:44skimming around
01:04:45got me so
01:04:46horny for you.
01:04:54By this time
01:04:55next week,
01:04:56we're going to be
01:04:57rich because of
01:04:58that brilliant
01:04:59contract he made.
01:05:09Once you guys
01:05:10get married,
01:05:11the book rights
01:05:12transfer to you.
01:05:13The royalties alone
01:05:14are going to solve
01:05:15your company's
01:05:15bankruptcy.
01:05:16Then we'll take
01:05:17Max to Hollywood,
01:05:18whether he likes
01:05:19it or not.
01:05:20The studios are
01:05:21dying for a movie
01:05:23version of the
01:05:23Thorn Tree.
01:05:24Or not a trilogy.
01:05:25A TV show.
01:05:26Crypto.
01:05:27Video games.
01:05:27The possibilities
01:05:28are endless.
01:05:30We just have to
01:05:31keep our secret
01:05:32a little longer.
01:05:34I'll get rid of
01:05:34Max as soon as
01:05:35possible.
01:05:36Good.
01:05:37I hate sneaking
01:05:38around.
01:05:39Would have been
01:05:39easier if that
01:05:40bitch Lisa
01:05:40didn't almost
01:05:41fuck it up.
01:05:43Guess you get
01:05:44what you pay for.
01:05:45What do you
01:05:45mean?
01:05:46Oh, I didn't
01:05:47tell you?
01:05:48I've been paying
01:05:49her with her
01:05:50own money.
01:05:51I've withheld
01:05:52her royalties
01:05:53for years.
01:05:55You are so
01:05:56bad.
01:06:07What is it
01:06:07honey bunch?
01:06:09Mom, I think I
01:06:10have to tell you
01:06:10about what
01:06:11happened in L.A.
01:06:19I couldn't tell
01:06:20Max why I was
01:06:20really writing
01:06:21about him.
01:06:22Now he's
01:06:22marrying Miss
01:06:22Von Klimt and
01:06:23he probably
01:06:23doesn't even
01:06:24know that she
01:06:25hired me to
01:06:26help her seduce
01:06:26him.
01:06:27Sounds like
01:06:28you need to
01:06:28tell him.
01:06:29Miss Von Klimt
01:06:30said if I ever
01:06:30go back to
01:06:31L.A., she'll
01:06:31cancel my
01:06:32publishing
01:06:32contract.
01:06:33We'll lose
01:06:34your nerves.
01:06:35Maybe a lot
01:06:36more.
01:06:37Look, Miss
01:06:38Von Bitch
01:06:38was born rich.
01:06:40She doesn't
01:06:40know anything
01:06:40but running
01:06:41your daddy's
01:06:41company.
01:06:42You were
01:06:43born in
01:06:43the middle
01:06:43of nowhere
01:06:44with a mom
01:06:45in a wheelchair
01:06:45and somehow
01:06:46you still
01:06:47became a big

01:09:04Yeah?
01:09:04Hey, I know
01:09:05this sounds crazy,
01:09:05but I really need
01:09:06to talk to Max.
01:09:07Do you know
01:09:07where I can find him?
01:09:08He's about to get
01:09:08married, Lisa.
01:09:09Lisa, so...
01:09:09Yeah, that's
01:09:11kind of why I'm
01:09:12here.
01:09:12Okay, he doesn't
01:09:13want to see you.
01:09:14He and Giselle are
01:09:15very happy.
01:09:15No, but he doesn't
01:09:16know the truth.
01:09:17Giselle hired me
01:09:18to help I seduce him.
01:09:20You are crazy.
01:09:21You're talking
01:09:22like a crazy person.
01:09:23All right, go back
01:09:23to the loony bin.
01:09:24Now.
01:09:25Aren't you Max's
01:09:26friend?
01:09:26Don't you want
01:09:27to hear me out?
01:09:29Nope.
01:09:29Come on.
01:09:30Let's go.
01:09:31Wait.
01:09:33You're in on this,
01:09:34too.
01:09:36What are you two
01:09:36planning to do to Max?
01:09:38Stupid little bitch.
01:09:40You're going to ruin
01:09:40this entire plan for me.
01:09:41What plan?
01:09:42I warned you.
01:09:48What the hell's
01:09:49happening here,
01:09:49Tony?
01:09:51I'm so sorry.
01:09:52Lisa, hey.
01:09:55What is happening?
01:09:56I told you to keep
01:09:58your man-stealing ass
01:09:59out of L.A.
01:10:01Miss Monklin,
01:10:03think very clearly.
01:10:05about what you say
01:10:06next.
01:10:06You know what I can
01:10:08do to you.
01:10:09Easy, Giselle.
01:10:11What happened
01:10:12between you two?
01:10:13Don't talk to her,
01:10:13Max.
01:10:14She is just looking
01:10:15to use you for more
01:10:16material for her books.
01:10:18Isn't that right,
01:10:19Lisa?
01:10:21Lisa, is that true?
01:10:22Come on, Lisa.
01:10:23Stand up for yourself.
01:10:25It's now or never.
01:10:38Giselle hired me to help
01:10:39her seduce you.
01:10:40What you read in my journal
01:10:41wasn't a book,
01:10:42at least not one I planned on.
01:10:43They were notes to share
01:10:45with Miss Von Klimt.
01:10:48So, what happened
01:10:49between us was fake?
01:10:51No.
01:10:51I just wanted to be
01:10:53a good date doctor.
01:10:54I was as shocked as anyone
01:10:55when I was the one
01:10:56who started to fall
01:10:57in love with you.
01:10:57Oh, you fell in love
01:10:58with me.
01:10:59Of course, Max.
01:11:02And I don't know
01:11:03what Miss Von Klimt
01:11:03has told you,
01:11:04but I don't think
01:11:05she's marrying you
01:11:05for the right reasons.
01:11:06Because Tony seems
01:11:07to be a part of her plan.
01:11:08She is babbling
01:11:10like a psycho.
01:11:12Somebody call the police.
01:11:13I mean,
01:11:14to ruin our wedding day.
01:11:16Max,
01:11:17please believe me.
01:11:19I love you.
01:11:21Don't marry her.
01:11:22LAPD,
01:11:23there is a raving lunatic
01:11:25trying to ruin my wedding.
01:11:27And you know what?
01:11:28I'm going to bring her
01:11:29right over here, right...
01:11:31Answer me this.
01:11:32Is that baby mine?
01:11:45It's mine!
01:11:47Giselle and I
01:11:48had the idea
01:11:48to screw you
01:11:49out of your book rights
01:11:50by adding some
01:11:51hidden clauses
01:11:51in the contract.
01:11:53She marries you.
01:11:55She controls everything.
01:11:57Tony,
01:11:57we have known each other
01:11:58for years.
01:12:01Why would you betray me?
01:12:04EMU Publishing
01:12:05was going bankrupt.
01:12:06Giselle needed money.
01:12:07She convinced me
01:12:08that I needed some too.
01:12:10But honestly,
01:12:11I didn't care about that.
01:12:14All I wanted was her.
01:12:15Oh,
01:12:16you sappy piece of shit!
01:12:18You fucked us!
01:12:20I love you!
01:12:21And the baby!
01:12:22Yeah?
01:12:23We hate you!
01:12:24Hey!
01:12:25It's safe to say
01:12:26this wedding is over.
01:12:29I'll see you two lovebirds
01:12:30in court.
01:12:36Can you ever
01:12:37forgive me for
01:12:38doubting you?
01:12:39I don't know
01:12:39what came over me.
01:12:40I was a mess
01:12:41after our fight.
01:12:44We can talk about it
01:12:45over dinner.
01:12:46I know a little
01:12:48spot by the beach.
01:12:52You are finished!
01:12:53Lisa,
01:12:54I am canceling
01:12:55our contract
01:12:56and I am keeping
01:12:57the Heidi Brushfire name.
01:12:59Yeah,
01:12:59I'll write
01:12:59all the next books
01:13:01myself.
01:13:02A monkey
01:13:02could write
01:13:03that trash!
01:13:12Get up!
01:13:14Baby!
01:13:14Baby!
01:13:15No!
01:13:22Don't worry
01:13:22about yourself.
01:13:24I will get you
01:13:25a new publishing deal.
01:13:26You just have
01:13:27to trust me.
01:13:30Do you trust me?
01:13:40I love you,
01:13:42Lisa.
01:13:47Happy to present
01:13:49the author
01:13:49formerly known
01:13:51as Heidi Brushfire
01:13:52reading from her
01:13:53first novel
01:13:54under her real name
01:13:56which has already
01:13:57topped the New York
01:13:58Times bestseller list.
01:13:59Ladies and gentlemen,
01:14:02Lisa Brown!
01:14:04Yay!
01:14:11I sat at my laptop
01:14:12in PJs
01:14:13writing a sex scene
01:14:15between a werewolf king
01:14:16and an elven princess.
01:14:17When the phone rang,
01:14:20little did I know
01:14:20my life was about
01:14:22to change forever.
01:14:30I love the book.
01:14:32Why did you decide
01:14:33to publish under
01:14:34your own name?
01:14:35My boyfriend
01:14:35was very encouraging.
01:14:37Some of you
01:14:37might know
01:14:38MK Roth.
01:14:40Aww!
01:14:42Max started
01:14:43his own publishing
01:14:43company after
01:14:44some bad
01:14:45industry experiences.
01:14:46His next book's
01:14:47coming out
01:14:48later this year.
01:14:53So,
01:14:54you didn't write
01:14:54the new
01:14:55Elvin Lust book?
01:14:56It totally sucks.
01:14:58The Heidi Brushfire
01:14:59name belongs
01:14:59to my old publisher.
01:15:01I heard the CEO
01:15:02writes the books
01:15:02herself now.
01:15:03I guess she must
01:15:04have plenty of time
01:15:05now that she's
01:15:05bankrupt.
01:15:08I have a question.
01:15:10When are you
01:15:11and Max getting
01:15:11married?
01:15:12He let you put out
01:15:13this sexy book
01:15:14all about how you
01:15:15met.
01:15:15How about a happy
01:15:16ending?
01:15:17Mom!
01:15:17Mom?
01:15:19Actually,
01:15:22I can answer that.
01:15:31I've never really
01:15:33been a public
01:15:33person,
01:15:34but
01:15:35Lisa broke me
01:15:36out of that shell.
01:15:39Speaking of which,
01:15:48Lisa Brown,
01:15:51will you marry me?
01:15:54Yes.
01:15:55rehearsals.
01:15:59Whoo!
01:16:00Whoo!
01:16:03Whoo!
01:16:04Whoo!
