00:00:05I must have you.
00:00:11Calvin Princess.
00:00:12And I you werewolf king.
00:00:17Shihara heard tales that the werewolf king was the greatest lover in all the realm.
00:00:21Now she would know the truth.
00:00:24She 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.
00:00:44The werewolf king.
00:00:48Think.
00:00:49Lisa, that's the climax of the book.
00:00:51It has to be steamy AF.
00:00:59How does MK get inspiration?
00:01:09The werewolf king swept his princess into the bed.
00:01:28He tore her dress and kissed down her body.
00:01:35His burning lips trailing lower.
00:01:40And lower.
00:01:42And.
00:01:46Miss Von Klimt.
00:01:48Hi.
00:01:48So.
00:01:49How's my favorite romance author?
00:01:52Yeah.
00:01:53Fine.
00:01:54Everything's okay.
00:01:55My books are still selling, right?
00:01:56Hotter than La Boo Boo's.
00:01:58Listen.
00:01:59I have a special assignment for you.
00:02:01You've heard of MK Roth, right?
00:02:03I love him.
00:02:04I mean.
00:02:06His writing.
00:02:07Fabulous.
00:02:07We'll talk more about it when you're in LA.
00:02:10You're coming tomorrow.
00:02:11Tomorrow?
00:02:21One more chapter and you can finish this book just right, Max.
00:02:27Stop blinking like that.
00:02:29Oh.
00:02:33Oh.
00:02:34Forget writing.
00:02:36You need to be pitching for the Dodgers.
00:02:39Very funny, Tony.
00:02:41Well.
00:02:42What's going on?
00:02:43I still can't finish the novel.
00:02:46Seven years of hard work and it still rides on this last chapter.
00:02:49Well.
00:02:50Why don't you just...
00:02:51Chat GBT.
00:02:53Okay.
00:02:53I'm kidding.
00:02:54Mr. Integrity.
00:02:55Look.
00:02:56Why don't we just leave the workshop for a while?
00:02:58Huh?
00:02:58We're meeting with EMU Publishing.
00:03:00No.
00:03:01I should be writing.
00:03:02Hey.
00:03:03You said it yourself, Max.
00:03:04You haven't published in seven years.
00:03:07Look.
00:03:07Do you wanna...
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.
00:03:21Yeah.
00:03:22There he is.
00:03:23That's the spirit.
00:03:24Good.
00:03:26Oh.
00:03:27Do me a favor.
00:03:28Take a shower before we go.
00:03:29You smell like the feet.
00:03:43I am so sorry I'm late.
00:03:44We had an emergency landing in Tucson.
00:03:46Ms. Longclim stole us some time before 3pm.
00:03:48Hurry.
00:03:49Amazing.
00:03:51I gotta sit.
00:03:57M.K. Roth?
00:03:58Am I dreaming?
00:04:00Hey.
00:04:01We're walking here, twerp.
00:04:02Get out of the way.
00:04:02Hey.
00:04:04Why don't you show the ladies some respect?
00:04:06Did M.K. Roth just call me a lady?
00:04:09Lisa!
00:04:10I'm waiting!
00:04:19I'm working on a deal with M.K. Roth.
00:04:22The biggest name in fiction.
00:04:24We are in talks to publish his new novel here at EMU Publishing.
00:04:30Yeah!
00:04:30M.K. Roth has a new novel.
00:04:32I've waited years for this.
00:04:34He's my all-time favorite author.
00:04:36Here's the thing.
00:04:36I have a little crush on him.
00:04:39M.K.
00:04:40Max.
00:04:41I am crazy about him.
00:04:44That face.
00:04:45That hair.
00:04:46That...
00:04:47The race of a generation.
00:04:48Exactly.
00:04:50Normally, I can get any guy I want, anytime I want.
00:04:54Just look at me.
00:04:55But Max is different.
00:04:57My usual tactics aren't working.
00:05:00What 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.
00:05:35It's all just fiction.
00:05:37Made up.
00:05:38Don't be modest, Lisa.
00:05:40I am crushing hard here.
00:05:42I'll double your next advance.
00:05:45How's 50K sound?
00:05:47Hmm?
00:05:4850,000?
00:05:49With that much money I could afford the live-in nurse moms always wanted.
00:05:53I'm not hearing a no, so that is a yes.

00:36:22Wow, Lisa, I want you.
00:36:25You're in the cell.
00:36:52You're in the cell.
00:37:21What have I done?
00:37:34Oh, no.
00:37:35I'm at Max's place.
00:37:37Oh, my gosh.
00:37:38Oh, my gosh.
00:37:40I can't believe I slept with Max.
00:37:42Miss Von Klimt will murder me.
00:37:44I can't believe I slept with me.
00:37:51Relax, Lisa.
00:37:53Max is famous.
00:37:54He probably has one night stands all the time.
00:37:56No reason he can't still fall for Miss Von Klimt.
00:38:00Lisa?
00:38:02What are you doing?
00:38:06Max, look.
00:38:07Look, 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.
00:38:18It's not a big deal.
00:38:20I haven't slept with anyone, Lisa, since my wife left me.
00:38:24Oh.
00:38:26I want to see you again.
00:38:29And not just to get your notes.
00:38:42Me too.
00:38:46What's that?
00:38:59Giselle?
00:39:02What are you doing here?
00:39:06Miss Von Klimt?
00:39:07She's supposed to be out of town until Friday.
00:39:10Shh.
00:39:13Where's Spector?
00:39:14When 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.
00:39:24Thanks, but it's not a very good time for me.
00:39:28What's wrong?
00:39:29You have company?
00:39:32Good 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.
00:39:45Nice.
00:39:47Woo!
00:39:55Mimosas, anyone?
00:39:59Lisa?
00:40:26Giselle!
00:40:28You're home early.
00:40:29You're home early.
00:40:30Did you have a sleepover with your fuck buddy last night?
00:40:33What was his name, by the way?
00:40:36He was just some guy from Tinder.
00:40:38Probably used a fake name anyway.
00:40:40Which was?
00:40:41Ma-
00:40:42Er-
00:40:43Jerry.
00:40:46Jerry McIntosh.
00:40:47Almost sounded like you were going to say Max.
00:40:51That's funny.
00:40:54What's going on with my guy anyways?
00:40:57You know, I've been having the nastiest dreams about him.
00:41:01I saw him a few times while you were away.
00:41:03Everything's in my journal.
00:41:04Let me see!
00:41:05Oh!
00:41:07My handwriting's a mess.
00:41:09I'll retype it for you by tonight.
00:41:11Okay.
00:41:12Nice work.
00:41:13I'm sending half your bonus.
00:41:15There better be some juicy shit in there.
00:41:21Thanks, Miss Von Clemson!
00:41:28Oh, 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.
00:41:50I'm getting carpal tunnel.
00:41:52This is like the longest contract I've ever signed.
00:41:54Hey, for the biggest check.
00:41:56Huh?
00:42:00Well, you just bought yourself a bestseller.
00:42:04Let's toast.
00:42:13You're awfully quiet today, Giselle.
00:42:15You 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.
00:42:29I love libraries, but I wouldn't take you as the type.
00:42:32Oh, I love the smell of old books.
00:42:36Me too.
00:42:36Me too.
00:42:37Me too.
00:42:39Ha-ha!
00:42:41Hey!
00:42:44For you.
00:42:49To the thorn tree.
00:42:50To the thorn tree.
00:42:55Well, when do we get to see the manuscript?
00:42:58I'm dying to read it.
00:42:59Just waiting for notes from the trusted reader.
00:43:01Really?
00:43:02Who?
00:43:03Don't worry.
00:43:04I'll send it soon.
00:43:08Well, that should get going.
00:43:10So, Tony, thanks for the champagne.
00:43:12You got it, buddy.
00:43:13And I'll see you.
00:43:14Bye, Max.
00:43:15We'll be in touch.
00:43:20We signed, babe.
00:43:22We are almost there.
00:43:23And if everything else goes according to plan, you're going to be at a bankruptcy.
00:43:26And we are going to be filthy, stinking rich.
00:43:29You always know what to say to a girl, Tony.
00:43:32Well, I also know what to do to a girl, too.
00:43:37How'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.
00:43:47Just don't spend all your bonus on me.
00:43:51Gotta go.
00:43:52Love you.
00:43:57Miss Van Clem, hi.
00:44:00Max?
00:44:02Am I interrupting something?
00:44:04No.
00:44:06But...
00:44:07I...
00:44:08Uh...
00:44:09So, can I come in?
00:44:11Resist, Lisa.
00:44:12Miss Van Clem sees Max in here.
00:44:13I'm dead meat.
00:44:23At least I'll die happy.
00:44:26I'm dead meat.
00:45:21Max's car? What's he doing here?
00:45:28I finished the manuscript. It might just be your best book yet.
00:45:33That means a lot's coming from you. What do I do about the ending?
00:45:42The main character goes through so much heartbreak. He has a choice at the end. To live in pain or
00:45:49to move on. To write the final chapter, why not consider how you feel?
00:45:54Do you think you'll find love again? Or not?
00:45:59I never thought I would even trust a woman after Heather cheated on me. But now, I'm seeing some light
00:46:11shine through the dark clouds.
00:46:13Maybe you. I mean, James. You should get a happy ending. Give the readers some hope.
00:46:24Max! Max!
00:46:28Oh my God! Oh my God! Giselle's home!
00:46:32Are you guys friends?
00:46:33We are, but I just don't want her to find out about us yet.
00:46:37Why not?
00:46:39Because...
00:46:40You're a private person. It's none of her business.
00:46:45You're sweet.
00:46:51Lisa! Is Max in there?
00:46:59Max! What are you doing here?
00:47:03Uh...
00:47:04Discussing his manuscript.
00:47:08Lisa gives great notes.
00:47:11Well, actually, I'm glad you're here. Ocean 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...
00:47:23Lisa has other plans.
00:47:25Too bad.
00:47:26We'll miss you.
00:47:28Bye.
00:47:48Are you sure you don't want to get a drink with Ocean?
00:47:49I mean...
00:47:50You know, I was tempted.
00:47:52Ocean's a sweetheart, but...
00:47:54I'm not much of a going out girl.
00:47:56Yeah, I'd much rather stay in and...
00:47:58Curl up with a good book.
00:48:00I don't know, you 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...
00:48:10Didn't you inherit that company?
00:48:12What's your point?
00:48:14Okay, what's your favorite book?
00:48:16I'd have to say Wuthering Heights.
00:48:18It's...
00:48:18It always makes me cry.
00:48:19Wuthering Heights.
00:48:20What?
00:48:21You don't like it?
00:48:22I've just been hearing a lot about that book lately.
00:48:24It's actually one of my favorites.
00:48:25Oh.
00:48:26Makes me cry.
00:48:30It's getting really cold outside.
00:48:32Do you want to come in for a coffee?
00:48:36Um...
00:48:37Yeah.
00:48:37Yeah.
00:48:38Yeah.
00:48:39Sure.
00:48:41Sorry.
00:48:49I know it's worked.
00:48:50I can't watch.
00:48:56I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression, Giselle.
00:49:00I like you.
00:49:01And we have a lot of similar interests.
00:49:03I...
00:49:03I misread the situation too.
00:49:06I like you too.
00:49:08I'm...
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.
00:49:14Maybe we can just be friends.
00:49:16I mean, they work together.
00:49:17It's a lot less complicated that way.
00:49:19Sure.
00:49:20I'd like that.
00:49:22Okay.
00:49:23Well, I gotta...
00:49:25Gotta get going.
00:49:26Have a good night.
00:49:27And good luck with that girl.
00:49:29Yeah.
00:49:30Thanks.
00:49:32Seeing someone?
00:49:33If it's that mousy little Lisa,
00:49:36I'm gonna feed that bitch rat poison.
00:49:38That homewrecking whore has outstayed her welcome.
00:49:41Big time.
00:49:45Max and Giselle kissed.
00:49:47So what?
00:49:48That's a good thing.
00:49:50Why am I being so weird about it?
00:49:55Can we talk?
00:49:59Thanks so much for all your advice with Max.
00:50:02It's been working wonders.
00:50:04How'd it go last night?
00:50:05Let'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.
00:50:14Pack your bags.
00:50:16Your car arrives in an hour.
00:50:22What?
00:50:22What did you think you were gonna move in?
00:50:24I'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?
00:50:31I never saw the Hollywood sign.
00:50:34Overrated.
00:50:35Pack 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.
00:50:53Unless we are.
00:50:55What do I do?
00:51:21Unless we are.
00:51:26Almost to the airport.
00:51:34Can I change the destination?
00:51:40Come on, Max.
00:51:41Be home.
00:51:46Lisa.
00:51:49What's the matter?
00:51:52I...
00:51:54I...
00:51:56I...
00:51:59Hey.
00:52:02Just breathe.
00:52:04Calm down.
00:52:04Come on.
00:52:05You're with me now.
00:52:07Everything's gonna be just fine.
00:52:10I...
00:52:14I...
00:52:17I...
00:52:23I...
00:52:24I...

00:52:41I...
00:52:42I...
00:52:51I...
00:53:03I...
00:53:04I...
00:53:09I should go, or I'll miss my flight.
00:53:12I just came to say goodbye.
00:53:13I didn't expect all of this.
00:53:20Maybe it sounds crazy, Lisa, but I'm falling for you.
00:53:26You can stay here with me as long as you want.
00:53:32Really?
00:53:33And if you miss your mom, I will fly her here.
00:53:37She can stay here. There's plenty of space.
00:53:40I'll put in ramps for her wheelchair.
00:53:43What about you and Miss Von Klimt?
00:53:46I saw you kissing last night.
00:53:48Well, then you must have missed me letting her down easy,
00:53:50because you are the only one that I want.
00:53:57Let me think about it, all right?
00:54:00Take as much time as you need.
00:54:14Real smooth, Max.
00:54:21I have to admit, I'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 only made it sweeter.
00:54:52What the hell is this?
00:54:57Max, I can explain.
00:54:58You're writing about us.
00:54:59About me.
00:55:00I told you, my journal's private.
00:55:02Then why does it look like you're writing your next romance novel?
00:55:06It does.
00:55:08You know?
00:55:09I don't want my personal life splattered around.
00:55:13Max, it's just my diary.
00:55:16I'd never dream of publishing it.
00:55:18I cannot believe I fell for your ugly duckling story.
00:55:22Just admit it.
00:55:23You are using me for material.
00:55:25I can't tell Max the truth, or it'll mean ratting out Ms. Von Klimt.
00:55:29And that means losing my publishing contract.
00:55:31What do I do?
00:55:37Your silence says everything.
00:55:40Max, I never meant to hurt you.
00:55:42Don't you have a plane to catch?
00:55:44But Max...
00:55:45We're done.
00:55:46Get out, Lisa.
00:55:50And if I ever see this printed, you'll be hearing from my attorneys.
00:56:02I'm so sorry, Max.
00:56:18Need a ride, skink?
00:56:26What are you doing here?
00:56:28Bitch, what are you doing here?
00:56:31You're supposed to be at the airport right now.
00:56:33But no.
00:56:34You just had to stop by Max's for a little last quickie, didn't you?
00:56:39I can't explain.
00:56:40No.
00:56:40I brought you out here for a reason.
00:56:43And that reason is not fucking Max behind my back.
00:56:46I trusted you.
00:56:49I'm so sorry I let you down.
00:56:52Max just broke up with me.
00:56:55You broke up?
00:56:56Max must be vulnerable.
00:56:58Maybe I'm still in the game after all.
00:57:03I'll forgive you.
00:57:04If you leave right now,
00:57:06you can keep the money and the publishing deal.
00:57:09But I never want to see your face at LA again.
00:57:13Got it?
00:57:14Okay.
00:57:16Now beat it.
00:57:25Damn it, Lisa.
00:57:27I said to get out of here.
00:57:28We're through.
00:57:31Giselle.
00:57:33What are you doing here?
00:57:34I guess this is a bad time.
00:57:37Wait.
00:57:39I could use somebody to talk to.
00:57:45Thanks, Giselle.
00:57:47I don't think alcohol can solve this problem, no.
00:57:50Couldn't hurt.
00:58:05So.
00:58:08What happened with Lisa?
00:58:10She was using me for her next romance novel.
00:58:15I found her journal.
00:58:18I should have known it was too good to be true.
00:58:21She's the woman you told me about?
00:58:25I'm so sorry.
00:58:27No, Lisa's always been like this.
00:58:30She's a succubus.
00:58:32Just using men for her perverted novels.
00:58:45Now, I may not know what to say to make you feel better, but I do know something that might
00:58:53distract you.
00:59:16I have just returned from a visit to my landlord, the solitary neighbor that I shall be troubled with.
00:59:25This is certainly a beautiful country.
00:59:31In all England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the
00:59:41stir of society.
01:00:07Are you going to mope around in your PJs forever?
01:00:11I'm a writer, Mom.
01:00:13PJs are my uniform.
01:00:16When are you going to tell me what happened?
01:00:19How about getting out of the house?
01:00:20I thought we got Teresa so you didn't have to be around so much.
01:00:25Your Tinder matches are just waiting for a time and place.
01:00:28I don't want a Tinder date, Mom.
01:00:31Just leave me alone, please.
01:00:33See what I'm dealing with, Teresa.
01:00:35Goes to L.A. for two weeks, comes back a drama queen.
01:00:42M.K. Roth's Thorn Tree tops Time's bestseller lists.
01:00:47Congratulations, Max.
01:00:52Miss Von Klimt?
01:00:58Looks like she finally got him.
01:01:09Another week topping the bestseller list.
01:01:12We're breaking records, Max.
01:01:15I'm just glad that people like it.
01:01:17They love it.
01:01:20You might win the National Book Award.
01:01:27You've been drinking a lot lately.
01:01:29Everything okay?
01:01:33Well, I know something that will cheer you up.
01:01:37I went to the doctor today.
01:01:40Guess what?
01:01:41What?
01:01:43I'm pregnant.
01:01:46You're pregnant?
01:01:47Mm-hmm.
01:01:49But how?
01:01:49How?
01:01:50We're using protection.
01:01:51Accidents happen, right?
01:01:54You are going to be such a great father.
01:01:57I can't wait to be Mrs. Roth.
01:02:02So you're keeping it?
01:02:03Why wouldn't I?
01:02:05I want this to work, Max.
01:02:08I love you.
01:02:22Well, whatever you want to do, I will support it.
01:02:25Oh.
01:02:32Shihara never loved anyone like the Werewolf King.
01:02:36Their days were filled with long talks, reading, strolls around the castle, their nights with passionate lovemaking.
01:02:44Shihara had never been so happy.
01:02:49I can't write romance with a broken heart.
01:02:51This is torture.
01:02:54Not now, Mom.
01:02:56I thought a little gift might improve your mood.
01:03:00Thanks, Mom.
01:03:01You didn't have to.
01:03:03Your favorite author.
01:03:04Everyone's talking about the new book.
01:03:06It's in Oprah's book club.
01:03:09Surprised I haven't seen you reading it.
01:03:13I just didn't have the time.
01:03:15Thanks, Mom.
01:03:40As James perused the library, he saw a young woman in glasses crying over Wuthering Heights.
01:03:47She felt his presence, wiping her eyes as she returned his gaze.
01:03:56James had lost the game of love, but that didn't mean he never went again.
01:04:02A happy ending.
01:04:05He took my note.
01:04:08Maybe there's still hope for me.
01:04:12Millionaire author M.K. Roth to Wed, CEO of EMU Publishing.
01:04:18They're getting married?
01:04:42All this scheming around has got me so horny for you.
01:04:53By this time next week, we're going to be rich because of that brilliant contract he made.
01:05:09Once you guys get married, the book rights transfer to you.
01:05:13The royalties alone are going to solve your company's bankruptcy.
01:05:16Then we'll take Max to Hollywood, whether he likes it or not.
01:05:20The studios are dying for a movie version of The Thorn Tree.
01:05:23We're not a trilogy, a TV show, crypto, video games.
01:05:27The possibilities are endless.
01:05:30We just have to keep our secret a little longer.
01:05:33I'll get rid of Max as soon as possible.
01:05:36Good.
01:05:37I hate sneaking around.
01:05:38Would have been easier if that bitch Lisa didn't almost fuck it up.
01:05:42Guess you get what you pay for.
01:05:44What do you mean?
01:05:46Oh, I didn't tell you?
01:05:48I've been paying her with her own money.
01:05:51I've withheld her royalties for years.
01:05:55You are so bad.
01:06:06What is it, honey bunch?
01:06:08Mom, I think I have to tell you about what happened in L.A.
01:06:18I couldn't tell Max why I was really writing about him.
01:06:21Now he's marrying Miss Von Klimt and he probably doesn't even know that she hired me to help her seduce
01:06:26him.
01:06:27Sounds like you need to tell him.
01:06:28Miss Von Klimt said if I ever go back to L.A., she'll cancel my publishing contract.
01:06:33We'll lose your nerves.
01:06:35Maybe a lot more.
01:06:36Look, Miss Von Bitch was born rich.
01:06:39She doesn't know anything but running her daddy's company.
01:06:42You were born in the middle of nowhere with a mom in a wheelchair.
01:06:45And somehow you still became a big author.
01:06:49You could take that Barbie any day of the week.
01:06:52But Max dumped me.
01:06:54What if he really does love Miss Von Klimt?
01:06:57You'll never know unless you talk to him.
01:07:00Brave.
01:07:01Like Shihara, the elf princess.
01:07:04You're not that nerdy girl you were in high school.
01:07:07You're a badass bitch.
01:07:10You're right.
01:07:12But can I really break up a wedding?
01:07:14Hell yes you can.
01:07:26Hey, you look great, pal.
01:07:30I can't believe I'm getting married again.
01:07:33Don't you think it's too soon?
01:07:34Not with the right lady.
01:07:37Sure.
01:07:38I'm not so sure about that.
01:07:44Don't tell me you're getting cold feet.
01:07:46What is this about?
01:07:50Max, do not tell me it was about that English smut writer.
01:07:54Hey.
01:07:55Men would kill to be what you're saying.
01:07:58You know that.
01:08:11Elvin and Lust?
01:08:13Why are you reading this crap?
01:08:16Isn't it bad luck to see each other before the wedding day?
01:08:20Netflix called.
01:08:21They want to adapt The Thorn Tree as a dating show.
01:08:26The ultimatum meets Vanderpump rules.
01:08:29What do you think?
01:08:34I'm not whoring out my work.
01:08:36Stop asking me about Hollywood deals.
01:08:39I'm sorry.
01:08:40I just got excited.
01:08:42We'll talk after the ceremony.
01:08:53I made it.
01:08:54Thank God for book talk.
01:08:58Lisa?
01:08:59No, she ruined everything.
01:09:02Tony, hi.
01:09:03Yeah?
01:09:04Hey, I know this sounds crazy, but I really need to talk to Max.
01:09:06Do you know where I can find him?
01:09:07He's about to get married, Lisa.
01:09:09Yeah.
01:09:10That's kind of why I'm here.
01:09:12Okay, he doesn't want to see you.
01:09:14He and Giselle are very happy.
01:09:15No, but he doesn't know the truth.
01:09:17Giselle hired me to help I seduce him.
01:09:20You're talking like a crazy person.
01:09:22All right?
01:09:23Go back to the loony bin.
01:09:24Now.
01:09:24Aren't you Max's friend?
01:09:26Don't you want to hear me out?
01:09:28Nope.
01:09:29Come on.
01:09:30Let's go.
01:09:31Wait.
01:09:33You're in on this, too.
01:09:35What are you two planning to do to Max?
01:09:37You stupid little bitch.
01:09:39You're going to ruin this entire plan for me.
01:09:41What plan?
01:09:42I won't do.
01:09:47What the hell's happening here, Tony?
01:09:50I'm so sorry.
01:09:51Lisa.
01:09:52Hey.
01:09:54What is happening?
01:09:56I told you to keep your man-stealing ass out of L.A.
01:10:01Miss von Klimt, think very clearly about what you say next.
01:10:06You know what I can do to you.
01:10:08Giselle.
01:10:10What happened between you two?
01:10:12Don't talk to her, Max.
01:10:14She is just looking to use you for more material for her books.
01:10:17Isn't that right, Lisa?
01:10:20Lisa, is that true?
01:10:22Come on, Lisa.
01:10:23Stand up for yourself.
01:10:24It's now or never.
01:10:37Giselle hired me to help her seduce you.
01:10:39What you read in my journal wasn't a book, at least not one I planned on.
01:10:43They were notes to share with Miss von Klimt.
01:10:47So what happened between us was fake?
01:10:50No, I just wanted to be a good date doctor.
01:10:53I was as shocked as anyone when I was the one who started to fall in love with you.
01:10:57Oh, you fell in love with me.
01:10:59Of course, Max.
01:11:02And I don't know what Miss von Klimt has told you, but I don't think she's marrying you for the
01:11:05right reasons.
01:11:06Because Tony seems to be a part of her plan.
01:11:08She is babbling like a psycho.
01:11:11Somebody call the police.
01:11:13I mean, to ruin our wedding day.
01:11:15Max, please believe me.
01:11:19I love you.
01:11:20Don't marry her.
01:11:22LAPD, there is a raving lunatic trying to ruin my wedding.
01:11:27And you know what?
01:11:28I'm going to bring her right over here.
01:11:30Answer me this.
01:11:32Is that baby mine?
01:11:45It's mine.
01:11:47Giselle and I had the idea to screw you out of your book rights by adding some hidden clauses in
01:11:51the contract.
01:11:53She marries you.
01:11:55She controls everything.
01:11:56Tony, we have known each other for years.
01:12:01Why would you betray me?
01:12:03EMU Publishing was going bankrupt.
01:12:06Giselle needed money.
01:12:07And she convinced me that I needed some too.
01:12:10But honestly, I didn't care about that.
01:12:13All I wanted was her.
01:12:15Oh, you sappy piece of shit.
01:12:18You fucked us.
01:12:20I love you.
01:12:21And the baby.
01:12:22Yeah?
01:12:22We hate you.
01:12:24Hey, it's safe to say this wedding is over.
01:12:28And I'll see you two lovebirds in court.
01:12:36Can you ever forgive me for doubting you?
01:12:38I don't know what came over me.
01:12:40I was a mess after our fight.
01:12:44We could talk about it over dinner.
01:12:46I know a little spot by the beach.
01:12:51You are finished!
01:12:53Lisa, I am canceling our contract.
01:12:56And I am keeping the Heidi Brushfire name.
01:12:58Yeah, I'll write all the next books myself.
01:13:01A monkey could write that trash.
01:13:12Get up!
01:13:13Baby, baby!
01:13:14Get up!
01:13:21Don't worry about Giselle.
01:13:23I will get you a new publishing deal.
01:13:26You just have to trust me.
01:13:29Do you trust me?
01:13:40I love you, Lisa.
01:13:46I'm happy to present the author formerly known as Heidi Brushfire,
01:13:52reading from her first novel under her real name,
01:13:56which has already topped the New York Times bestseller list,
01:13:59ladies and gentlemen, Lisa Brown!
01:14:10I sat at my laptop in PJs,
01:14:13writing a sex scene between a werewolf king and an elven princess.
01:14:17When the phone rang,
01:14:19little did I know my life was about to change forever.
01:14:30I love the book.
01:14:32Why did you decide to publish under your own name?
01:14:34My boyfriend was very encouraging.
01:14:36Some of you might know MK Roth.
01:14:39Aww!
01:14:42Max started his own publishing company
01:14:43after some bad industry experiences.
01:14:46His next book's coming out later this year.
01:14:52So, you didn't write the new Elven Lust book?
01:14:56It totally sucks.
01:14:58The Heidi Brushfire name belongs to my old publisher.
01:15:00I heard the CEO writes the books herself now.
01:15:03Guess she must have plenty of time now that she's bankrupt.
01:15:08I have a question.
01:15:09When are you and Max getting married?
01:15:12He let you put out this sexy book all about how you met.
01:15:15How about a happy ending?
01:15:17Mom!
01:15:17Mom!
01:15:18Actually,
01:15:21I can answer that.
01:15:31I've never really been a public person,
01:15:34but Lisa broke me out of that shell.
01:15:39Speaking of which...
01:15:48Lisa Brown,
01:15:51will you marry me?
01:15:54Yes.
01:15:55Yes!
01:15:55Yes!
01:15:56Yes!
01:15:59Yes!
01:16:01Yes!
01:16:03Yes!
01:16:03Yes!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:04Yes!
01:16:05Yes!
01:16:06Yes!
01:16:07You
