00:00:08Music
00:00:08Right here!
00:00:09Right here!
00:00:13Right here!
00:00:14Right here!
00:00:15Someone here!
00:00:18Just one more!
00:00:19Just one more!
00:00:20Come on!
00:00:21Come on, come on!
00:00:34I can't believe I'm so close to Freddie Jones.
00:00:39Charlotte!
00:00:40Why are you just standing here when there's people without hors d'oeuvres?
00:00:44Sorry sir, the caterers were in outside to get more.
00:00:47Finally, more hors d'oeuvres.
00:00:49I was just talking to the head of the studio.
00:00:51We share a ski cabin.
00:00:52She's having a great time, Uncle Seth.
00:00:54Oh, at least I have one intern who knows how to host a party.
00:00:58Charlotte, you could take a few notes here from Ava.
00:01:01This isn't your backwoods Applebee's.
00:01:03This is a Hollywood party.
00:01:06Hey, Mark Paul Gossler!
00:01:08He's right.
00:01:09You're too uptight and sweaty.
00:01:11It's not helping your whole Walmart aesthetic.
00:01:15It's not helping that I've been working this entire party by myself.
00:01:17It doesn't matter how hard you work.
00:01:20People have to like you.
00:01:22Nobody likes a martyr who dresses like she works at the DMV.
00:01:25Give up!
00:01:26And go home.
00:01:28Thanks Ava, but I don't need advice on how to charm a room from a nepho baby.
00:01:32I've been working for Tip since I was 15.
00:01:46Mr. Jones?
00:01:47Call me Freddy.
00:01:51Right.
00:01:52Um, I'm so sorry.
00:01:53You don't need to be sorry.
00:01:55This party needed a little excitement.
00:01:57It was trash and everybody knows it.
00:01:59Yeah.
00:02:01I mean, I prefer your earlier work, but you were still excellent.
00:02:06Thanks for telling me the truth.
00:02:08Nobody tells me the truth anymore.
00:02:12Well, it was, uh, nice bumping into you.
00:02:18Hey, Mr. Jones!
00:02:20Hey!
00:02:21You should be the one entertaining our star client.
00:02:23Not her!
00:02:23I can only hire one of you.
00:02:25And right now, she's winning.
00:02:27Do better.
00:02:53Do better.
00:02:54See you next time, baby?
00:02:56He looks so gross!
00:02:58Thanks.
00:02:58Oh, my gosh, you're already.
00:03:03Hey, how are you?
00:03:04Stop.
00:03:04You're already stuck.
00:03:05Oh, one, two, max.
00:03:06That's all the time.
00:03:07They ain't great!
00:03:14Where am I?
00:03:17Good morning.
00:03:23Good morning.
00:03:23Good morning.
00:03:42Yo, what's up?
00:03:43Did you forget that today is the first day of your master plan?
00:03:46Come on, man, get down here.
00:03:47Yeah, all right.
00:04:00Hey, what a premiere, Mr. Jones.
00:04:02I don't know whether you're more radiant on screen or off.
00:04:05Hey, what can I get you?
00:04:07You want a coffee, water?
00:04:08No, I'm fine, thanks.
00:04:10How about I'll just, I'll get both just in case.
00:04:15Close the door.
00:04:21Oh, negative, your favorite.
00:04:24Figure after last night, you would be pretty hungry.
00:04:28I didn't even like that, eh?
00:04:30Just needed help and I needed an exit.
00:04:32Come on, Freddy.
00:04:34I've been your best friend and your enabler for the last 200 years.
00:04:38And during that time, I've known you to be very picky, very cautious, and a very, very demanding vampire.
00:04:46So come on.
00:04:47Give me something.
00:04:48How'd she taste?
00:04:52I don't know, man.
00:04:53I think she was an intern.
00:04:55I didn't even get her name.
00:04:57But nothing happened.
00:04:59Good.
00:04:59Because I've got enough to worry about while you're going away undercover.
00:05:03You sure about this plan?
00:05:05I mean, come on.
00:05:06Why can't you just go to the Maldives like every other actor?
00:05:09I just need to get away from everything.
00:05:11The business, my parents, this whole movie star lifestyle.
00:05:16But why do you want to go undercover as an intern?
00:05:19Is this about that intern girl?
00:05:21Yeah, I may have come on a bit strong.
00:05:23I don't know.
00:05:24There's just something about her.
00:05:25But how do you know dressing up like an intern is going to help you get to know her?
00:05:28And how do you know that when you get close to her, you're not just going to blow your cover?
00:05:31I don't know.
00:05:32I'll play it cool.
00:05:33I'll work hard.
00:05:34Hopefully our paths will cross.
00:05:35I can feel it, though.
00:05:37Fine.
00:05:38I'll do what I can.
00:05:39But please, promise me you're not going to let this intern thing distract you from your actual job.
00:05:45Thanks, Coleman.
00:05:46This is going to be the role of a lifetime.
00:05:51Better.
00:05:54But you can't help but look like a movie star.
00:05:56I think I might need help from a glamour, so...
00:06:00So, I didn't know if you wanted all my...
00:06:04Where's Mr. Jones?
00:06:05He had an engagement.
00:06:08Who's this?
00:06:09This is Edward, our new intern.
00:06:12Oh, great.
00:06:14Another one.
00:06:16Well, let's get you started.
00:06:23Jesus.
00:06:24This might actually work.
00:06:34When can I expect money from you?
00:06:36I'm bartending nights and weekends.
00:06:37If you don't make some more money soon, you won't have a home to return to.
00:06:42Do you know the debt we're in?
00:06:44We're going to lose the bar if you don't start helping.
00:06:47The internship is going great.
00:06:49I'm going to have a new job before we know it.
00:06:52Okay?
00:06:53Mom, I have to go.
00:06:55Bye.
00:06:59After you humiliated yourself in front of the entire industry.
00:07:03I'm surprised you even came in today.
00:07:05What happened to me last night?
00:07:07I know I only have one drink.
00:07:09Were you taking bets on who you ended up with?
00:07:11My money's on the pay from the mailroom.
00:07:13Leave me alone.
00:07:22Oh, if it isn't Miss Life of the Party.
00:07:26You know, it's one thing to entertain the clients, but it's another to walk around acting like a drunken floozy.
00:07:32I'm sorry, I don't-
00:07:33Oh, really?
00:07:34You're sorry about that?
00:07:35Well, there's penance you can show around the new intern.
00:07:38We have a new intern?
00:07:39Yeah, yeah, that guy.
00:07:41Hey, come on over here.
00:07:42Hawk Hogan.
00:07:43Yeah, you.
00:07:44Jesus.
00:07:45Stop doing workouts and talk to her.
00:07:48Hi.
00:07:49I'm Edward.
00:07:56Hi.
00:07:57I'm Edward.
00:08:00Are you okay?
00:08:02Yeah, I'm Charlotte.
00:08:04Let me show you around.
00:08:10Hey, cutie.
00:08:12Oh, hello.
00:08:13Are you running for junior exec?
00:08:15No, I'm not looking for anything permanent.
00:08:18Oh, good.
00:08:18We should get along fine then.
00:08:21So, where are you from?
00:08:23Look, I'm supposed to help Charlotte with something, so...
00:08:26Between us, Charlotte's character isn't going to get her very far in this industry.
00:08:32This was her last night.
00:08:36Okay.
00:08:39Where are you going?
00:08:41To go help Charlotte.
00:08:42Like you should have done last night.
00:08:49So, Freddy just went on vacation.
00:08:52When he gets back, he's going to want something very different for his next project.
00:08:56We're looking for something that's very character-driven, but at the same time, something that only he could play.
00:09:00So, ideas?
00:09:02What about a period piece?
00:09:05You know, Freddy has this classic quality to him.
00:09:08Like, he could almost be from a different time.
00:09:10Um, I could see him in a Western, or a Jane Austen movie.
00:09:14Oh, that's really perceptive.
00:09:15Excuse me, interns?
00:09:17But the grown-ups are talking?
00:09:19Do you know who you're talking to?
00:09:23Do you know who you're talking to?
00:09:29I mean, it's...
00:09:30Freddy...
00:09:32Edward's...
00:09:33First day.
00:09:34Sorry.
00:09:40Oh!
00:09:41Totally forgot.
00:09:42I've actually got to run, but I'm greatly looking forward to hearing all of your ideas.
00:09:50When you're big shots, you can open your mouth every time a dumb idea pops into your head.
00:09:55But until then, you're nobody.
00:09:58I'll remember that.
00:09:59Good.
00:10:00Charlotte, you can stay and clean up after the party.
00:10:02I'll tell the cleaning services to skip this weekend.
00:10:05Tonight?
00:10:06But I have another job at...
00:10:07Oh, great!
00:10:08But you should've thought about that before you embarrassed our department.
00:10:12Ava!
00:10:14Happy hour!
00:10:15Ha, ha, ha, ha!
00:10:16I'm buying!
00:10:22You know you don't have to stay and clean up with me, right?
00:10:24I don't mind.
00:10:26Can I ask you something?
00:10:29Are Ava and Seth real pieces of shit?
00:10:32Ew.
00:10:33I shouldn't laugh.
00:10:36No, you should.
00:10:37You have a really beautiful smile.
00:10:40No, but seriously, why are they always like that?
00:10:43I don't know.
00:10:44It's just kind of the way they are.
00:10:46Ava's in the running for the same job as me, and Seth's her uncle, so...
00:10:52Anyway, what's your story?
00:10:54Why are you here?
00:10:57I mean, you can call it a quarter-life crisis.
00:11:01I don't know, I guess I've just been sheltered my whole life, so...
00:11:04I just wanted to try something new.
00:11:05You wanted to try picking up trash with me?
00:11:09I mean, there's worse ways to spend your day.
00:11:12Plus, I thought you can, you know, teach me a few things, and I can learn the ins and outs.
00:11:18Deal.
00:11:23Shoot, I'm gonna be late for work.
00:11:25Look, this isn't work?
00:11:26No, not for me.
00:11:28You know we don't get paid, right?
00:11:30What?
00:11:32I'll see you on Monday.
00:11:39Hey, Coleman.
00:11:41Yeah, give me the personal file on Charlotte Sin.
00:11:44Yeah, I need to know everything about her.
00:11:46Also, dude, we gotta start paying these interns.
00:11:48Alright.
00:12:01Why would you want to meet here?
00:12:03You hate places like this.
00:12:06Yeah, you do.
00:12:07What can I get the two?
00:12:09Mr. Hart?
00:12:12Edward?
00:12:13Do you guys know each other?
00:12:15Us?
00:12:16No, no, no, no.
00:12:19Look, he's a friend of my father's.
00:12:21I just didn't want anyone to think I was another Nepo baby.
00:12:24That's why you're so sheltered.
00:12:27Don't worry, your secret's safe with me.
00:12:29Do you know what you'd like?
00:12:32Yeah, we'll take two Bloody Marys.
00:12:34Extra bloody.
00:12:40What?
00:12:42Small world.
00:12:43Small world, and oh, look!
00:12:45Right there is where it tells you where she works in her personnel file.
00:12:48Yeah.
00:12:49Would you look at that?
00:12:50I think you already did.
00:12:52She's amazing, bro.
00:12:54Top of her class.
00:12:55Full ride scholarship.
00:12:57She could be anything.
00:12:59I don't know why she'd want to settle at the bottom in Hollywood.
00:13:01Sounds like somebody else that we know.
00:13:03Even the drinking.
00:13:05Okay.
00:13:06You know, Ava had a lot to do with that.
00:13:08You could smell it on her a mile away.
00:13:12If you have some time this weekend and you feel like getting your hands dirty.
00:13:15Yeah, sure.
00:13:17I'll be right back with those drinks.
00:13:22Oh, brother.
00:13:24You are in love.
00:13:27Can you make mine a double, please?
00:13:40Hey, so how do you know if a script is worth pitching?
00:13:42A good script grabs you on the first page and doesn't let go.
00:13:45You can't stop thinking about it.
00:13:46Edward, save yourself some time.
00:13:49If a script isn't on the blacklist, it's a pass.
00:13:52It's that easy.
00:13:54Like this one.
00:14:02Once you find a script you love, it makes all the drudgery worth it.
00:14:06At least for me.
00:14:07Hey, stop gabbing and get me your weekend script reports.
00:14:10I need something that screams Freddie Jones to bring to Coleman.
00:14:14So what do we got?
00:14:15I read a lot of great scripts.
00:14:17This top one is a modern take on Sunset Boulevard.
00:14:20Isn't that like black and white?
00:14:23That's one of the greatest movies of all time.
00:14:25You sound just like Freddie Jones.
00:14:27He always says that that's the movie that inspired him to act.
00:14:29Look at you two, sounding like nerds and losers living in the 50s.
00:14:34A contact just sent me an action romance.
00:14:36That's perfect.
00:14:38Ava, you are the best.
00:14:40I bet Freddie's gonna love that.
00:14:47Yeah, I bet Freddie will love that.
00:14:50Yeah.
00:14:56This script has a lot of heat, and it's a great part for Freddie.
00:14:59Yeah, if we don't jump on this now tomorrow, I promise we're gonna read in the trades that Leo's doing
00:15:03it.
00:15:04It's really good.
00:15:12But it's completely wrong for Freddie.
00:15:15But it's got everything.
00:15:17Action, sex, he even has his shirt off for over an hour.
00:15:20Yeah, but there's plenty more where that came from.
00:15:23Good.
00:15:25Because Freddie's looking for a wide spectrum.
00:15:29So I'm gonna wanna hear pitches from all of the interns.
00:15:33And whoever can pitch a film that Freddie actually wants to buy,
00:15:36gets the junior executive position.
00:15:49You okay, honey?
00:15:51That beer has more head than a truck stop men's room.
00:15:54Yeah, sorry.
00:15:55It's just work stuff.
00:15:57Work stuff? Or romance stuff?
00:16:01Don't look so shocked.
00:16:03Spending 20 years in a bar, I get really good at reading people, okay?
00:16:07I don't even know if it's mutual.
00:16:09It is.
00:16:10How do you know that?
00:16:11Because I got a sense about this stuff.
00:16:14Plus, he's sitting over at that table and he just asked about ya.
00:16:24What are you doing here?
00:16:28Well, I got those scripts that said toss them trash and I thought you'd wanna talk about them.
00:16:36Okay.
00:16:40Thanks for coming out tonight.
00:16:41You know, even if nothing happens, I love talking about movies with you.
00:16:46I love talking about movies with you too.
00:16:48Honestly, four hours does not seem like enough time.
00:16:52Shit.
00:16:57Smell that?
00:16:59O negative.
00:17:02My favorite.
00:17:04That citrus stings.
00:17:06Yeah.
00:17:06Okay.
00:17:21Let's take them both.
00:17:23I'm hungry.
00:17:25Sniff again.
00:17:28He's one of us.
00:17:30No way.
00:17:33Is that?
00:17:35No way.
00:17:36Is that?
00:17:40I
00:17:41Gotta go
00:17:46You'll never guess who just came in you're his biggest fan
00:18:06Can you imagine being so famous you have to lie about being on vacation?
00:18:10Don't you have work you should be doing?
00:18:12My contact just sent me another hot script so, no
00:18:21Hey Charlotte
00:18:24Um, can I get your help? I jammed a printer again
00:18:28Again?
00:18:28Yeah
00:18:30Seriously?
00:18:31Yeah
00:18:36Hey, what do you have for me?
00:18:37I just forwarded you a new script everyone is talking about
00:18:41That's all you have?
00:18:43That script just sold and it's not even what he's looking for
00:18:46Aren't you even listening?
00:18:48How am I supposed to find something small and pretentious?
00:18:51It's boring
00:18:52Figure it out
00:18:54I got you to third base
00:18:55You can score your own home run
00:18:57If that farm girl brings in a script that Freddie wants to buy
00:19:00I can't stop Coleman from hiring her
00:19:03Get on it
00:19:05Now
00:19:07Jesus fucking Christ
00:19:33Okay, maybe I did want to talk to you
00:19:35Yeah, well you better do it fast because I might have to run away suddenly with no explanation
00:19:40Okay, try to look about the other night
00:19:41It's fine, you don't have to explain
00:19:45We worked together, you did the smart thing
00:19:47We should keep it professional, right?
00:19:54Yeah, I mean if that's what you want
00:19:57Don't do it like that, you're gonna rip it
00:20:03Is this my proposal?
00:20:05Yeah, that's bringing out extra copies for you
00:20:08So nice
00:20:11Well, it should work now
00:20:14Okay
00:20:15Thanks
00:20:26Why is the door locked?
00:20:28I didn't lock it
00:20:29Must have been Ava
00:20:34Hey, are you okay?
00:20:37It's
00:20:38I'm claustrophobic and
00:20:39I can find spaces
00:20:41They make me panic
00:20:42Okay, hey
00:20:43Hey, hey, hey, hey
00:20:44It's gonna be okay
00:20:45Alright, you're gonna be okay
00:20:46Trust me for a second
00:20:47Okay?
00:21:04Better?
00:21:05How did you do that?
00:21:07Just a little trick I learned
00:21:12Yeah, you're right
00:21:14We should probably keep it professional
00:21:22Wait
00:21:28Okay
00:21:43What's going on here?
00:21:45Why is the door locked?
00:21:50Let's get you two out of here
00:21:52Come on
00:22:00Meh, being an intern is hard work
00:22:04By the way, have you seen Charlie's proposal?
00:22:07It's pretty good
00:22:08Freddie
00:22:09It's time to go back
00:22:12I've got paparazzi circling the kill
00:22:14Just looking for a scoop and guess what?
00:22:17You know who's been calling me?
00:22:19Diana
00:22:20And she's been asking me questions
00:22:22Okay, so what?
00:22:24Diana has paparazzi working for her now?
00:22:26Vampire paparazzi
00:22:28When is that woman ever gonna realize it is not gonna work out between us?
00:22:32I don't care what she wants or what my parents want or what the paparazzi wants
00:22:36It's not gonna work
00:22:37Yeah, well it's easy to be patient when you're an immortal bitch
00:22:42Sure
00:22:43I know you and Charlotte have a bond
00:22:47But it's time to call a rap on Eddie and time to get back to work
00:22:52It's back to my lonely gilded cage?
00:22:55You signed up for this
00:22:57She didn't
00:23:04How's your project proposal going?
00:23:06Why do you care?
00:23:07I want it to be good
00:23:08If I'm going to hand it in
00:23:09What are you talking about?
00:23:11My contact fell through and
00:23:13I can't hand in nothing so
00:23:15Unless you help me
00:23:16I'll have to hand in
00:23:18this
00:23:20The fuck, Angela?
00:23:22How'd you get pages from my journal?
00:23:24Careful how you talk to me
00:23:26Your one phone call away from being a stupid slut that taint Freddy's career
00:23:30There's no scandal if we didn't even sleep together
00:23:34I don't understand why you would do this Ava
00:23:36If you work for Freddy you're gonna ruin his career
00:23:38I won't
00:23:40Unless you force me to
00:23:42So what will it be?
00:23:53Let's get set up
00:23:56They love the proposal so much they want me to present it to the board
00:23:59I hope you're happy with yourself
00:24:01You're looking at the new junior executive
00:24:04Don't worry
00:24:05I requested you stay on as my personal intern
00:24:11Please
00:24:12I had it
00:24:13Damn it
00:24:20Hey!
00:24:21Where are you going with that?
00:24:28Have you seen Eddie?
00:24:29Looks like your little boyfriend left without saying goodbye
00:24:31Let's focus everyone
00:24:33We've got a lot to discuss
00:24:34Guess he wasn't as into you as you thought
00:24:36I don't think we'll need you for this meeting
00:24:38I'm pretty sure there's some cleaning to do around the office
00:24:40Fine with me
00:24:44Mr. Jones?
00:24:46Where are you going?
00:24:50Please stay
00:24:51I need everybody if it's a meeting
00:24:54Sure
00:24:55You can take notes
00:24:57There he is
00:24:58End of the hour
00:24:59Hey welcome back Freddy
00:25:01Looking tan and refreshed
00:25:02Better than ever
00:25:03Thank you Seth
00:25:04Appreciate that
00:25:10I would really like to know what this movie is at its core
00:25:14Ava
00:25:15This is your baby
00:25:16I would love to hear from you
00:25:17Well at its core it's a Freddy Jones movie
00:25:20That's what people are paying to see
00:25:22So what's your vision?
00:25:24Do you see this more as a classic Hollywood homage?
00:25:27A mystery?
00:25:28A romance?
00:25:28I think it has it all
00:25:32What's your favorite part?
00:25:34The ending
00:25:35What happens in the end?
00:25:37Your character
00:25:38Uh
00:25:40Wins?
00:25:42You know it's funny
00:25:43You wrote such an elegant summary
00:25:45But you can't recall any major plot points or how it ends
00:25:49I'm just curious
00:25:50Did you actually read the script or did you just have AI spit out a report for you?
00:25:54Of course I wrote this
00:25:56It's just been a few weeks and I
00:25:58I
00:26:00What do you think?
00:26:04At its heart it's
00:26:06A romance
00:26:08A mystery with a satirical edge
00:26:10But ultimately a love story
00:26:13With a poignant and tragic ending
00:26:16Sounds like a good movie
00:26:18Why do you think it would be beneficial for my career?
00:26:21Because
00:26:22People might not know it yet
00:26:23But you can do more than look good with your shirt off
00:26:26Opening weekend
00:26:28They're gonna go to see Freddy Jones the movie star
00:26:30Come Monday
00:26:31They're gonna tell their friends to go see Freddy Jones the actor
00:26:38I love that
00:26:40You sold me
00:26:42Ava
00:26:43I would like you to take notes for Charlotte from now on
00:26:48Uh
00:26:54What the hell was that?
00:26:56Ow, you're hurting me
00:26:57I just answered his question
00:26:59You set me up
00:27:00You humiliated me
00:27:01You should have prepared me better
00:27:03I just know I had to prepare you
00:27:05Didn't you read what you handed in?
00:27:06Oh it was insanely long and I have better things to do
00:27:09That was the whole point of using your proposal
00:27:11You made me look like an idiot
00:27:13No Ava, actually
00:27:15You did that all on your own
00:27:16You made me look so bad
00:27:18I need an explanation
00:27:19She set me up
00:27:20Your assistant executed a master plan to embarrass you and take control of a meeting
00:27:24If that's true then we should probably have her on the executive payroll
00:27:28She planned this
00:27:29With Freddy, I have proof
00:27:31Just to humiliate me
00:27:32They slept together
00:27:34That's enough
00:27:36Oz, I'm sorry
00:27:37Where is it?
00:27:38Where is it?
00:27:39Where?
00:27:41It's just
00:27:43Here it is
00:27:43Can we get security, please?
00:27:46No
00:27:48It was her
00:27:49They slept together
00:27:50Why don't you believe me?
00:27:52Let go of me
00:27:53Do you know how much this dress costs?
00:27:59I'll see you again soon
00:28:08Hey
00:28:11So, how'd it go today?
00:28:13Where were you?
00:28:16Ray Jones
00:28:18Get out of here
00:28:19No, I told you guys
00:28:20No, no pictures
00:28:21Go!
00:28:21Get out of here!
00:28:22Go!
00:28:24What the hell is going on?
00:28:26Why did they call you Freddy?
00:28:30Look Charlotte, I...
00:28:32I never meant to trick you
00:28:43Please
00:28:45I don't know what to think
00:28:48I don't know who you are
00:28:49Charlotte
00:28:51Charlotte
00:29:06Oh you bitch!
00:29:09You'll pay for that!
00:29:14We just wanted a story, but I guess we'll settle for something else.
00:29:22Get the fuck away from me!
00:29:35Charlotte, are you okay?
00:29:37You look hurt. Are you hurt?
00:29:38I'm fine. So sorry.
00:29:41This is all my fault.
00:29:42Why are you apologizing? You just saved my life.
00:29:44Come on.
00:29:51Ooh, the boss is gonna love this.
00:30:04You sure you're okay?
00:30:05Thanks, dad.
00:30:14I'm sorry.
00:30:14Does that hurt?
00:30:15A little.
00:30:16I don't know.
00:31:14And not all of them are good.
00:31:16You just lie back and rest.
00:31:18All right.
00:31:33I don't know.
00:31:48I don't know.
00:31:52I'm gonna do another sequel.
00:31:53As am I.
00:31:54But he's already made up his mind.
00:31:56Listen, dipshit.
00:31:57We both know which head he's thinking with and it's not the one above his shoulders.
00:32:00Well, that's not my business.
00:32:02Actually, fuckhead.
00:32:03It is your business.
00:32:04My guy just sent me these photos.
00:32:21No, I don't know the pay rate yet, Mom, but it's entry level.
00:32:28$3,000 a month, how am I supposed to-
00:32:30No, I know it's a-
00:32:33Okay, Mom.
00:32:36Okay, Mom, I have to go.
00:32:38Okay, bye.
00:32:41What was that all about?
00:32:43Nothing.
00:32:45You know, this is all really nice, but I have to go work brunch in an hour.
00:32:50What?
00:32:51Cancel.
00:32:52We can stay in bed all day.
00:32:54I got food brought up to us.
00:32:55Look, you just got a promotion, you don't need to be working back over there.
00:32:58Yeah, well, until I get my first paycheck, I'm not gonna jinx it.
00:33:02Fine.
00:33:04Do what you want.
00:33:09Let me know if you need anything else.
00:33:17Diana?
00:33:23Diana?
00:33:24So, you're the girl that's turned Freddie's career upside down.
00:33:28You're more stunning in person.
00:33:30I don't know about that.
00:33:32Don't sell yourself short.
00:33:33Success in Hollywood is all about branding.
00:33:36So, what's good here?
00:33:38Not much.
00:33:39So, why are you here, Diana?
00:33:41I know you're not here for the bottomless mimosas.
00:33:44You've got talent, and I need a development assistant.
00:33:47I already have a job.
00:33:49I work for Coleman, who works for me.
00:33:51I'm a silent partner in his business, but my family's money keeps the lights on.
00:33:56I didn't know that.
00:33:58I'm actually working on a project with Freddie right now.
00:34:00So, you just started fucking, which is a branding problem.
00:34:05For who?
00:34:07And how did you know that?
00:34:09It's a small town, and I have many sources.
00:34:12I do pay well.
00:34:33Charlotte, darling.
00:34:35Welcome.
00:34:35Come in.
00:34:36Come in.
00:34:36You wanted to talk about the new scripts?
00:34:38Oh, no.
00:34:39It's self-care Sunday.
00:34:41I need you to give me a foot massage.
00:34:42I'm sorry, what?
00:34:44You heard me.
00:34:44I've been on my feet all week, and I need to relax.
00:34:47Diana, I'm your assistant.
00:34:49I'm not a masseuse.
00:34:50Let's get one thing straight.
00:34:52If you want to keep this job and have any chance at all of making it in this industry,
00:34:55you'll do as I say.
00:35:12That's a good girl.
00:35:19Oh, no, that is it.
00:35:20Charlotte, she cannot keep treating you like this.
00:35:23You need to tell Freddie, and then teach this witch a lesson.
00:35:27No, Sam, that's exactly what she wants me to do.
00:35:30I need to prove I can make it on my own.
00:35:32Well, how much more can you take?
00:35:33As much as I need to.
00:35:35This is my dream.
00:35:36I'm not giving up on it.
00:35:53Hey, Mom, what's up?
00:35:54Charlotte, honey, I'm afraid I have some bad news.
00:35:58Your father's medication prices have gone up again, and we're struggling to keep up with
00:36:03the debt.
00:36:03I'm sorry, Mom.
00:36:04I wish I could help more, but things are a little tough right now, but I'm not giving
00:36:10up.
00:36:22I can do this.
00:36:25I have to do this.
00:36:35What's all this?
00:36:36I just wanted to celebrate your recent victories, so I thought I'd do something special for
00:36:41you for all your hard work.
00:36:55Are you serious?
00:36:56Yeah.
00:36:57Root beer floats.
00:36:58Your hometown favorite.
00:36:59My parents used to get me one of these after every soccer game, whether we won or lost.
00:37:03Go and try it.
00:37:04I can't.
00:37:05I'm on a special diet.
00:37:09Charlotte, I'm tired of hiding our love from the world.
00:37:13I'm tired of being chased by the paparazzi.
00:37:16I want to go public with our love.
00:37:18Are you sure?
00:37:18That's a big step.
00:37:20Yeah, I've never been more sure about anything in my entire life.
00:37:22We'll all support you no matter what.
00:37:46We'll all support you no matter what.
00:37:49Of course.
00:37:51We have the latest collections from the top designers.
00:37:53I'm sure we'll find something perfect for you.
00:37:59Diana, look at this one.
00:38:01This would look stunning on you.
00:38:02Oh, sweetie.
00:38:05I don't think that dress is quite worthy of someone like Miss Dunn's statue.
00:38:11You're right.
00:38:12My assistant here doesn't quite understand the difference between high fashion and, well,
00:38:19whatever she's wearing.
00:38:24Oh, now this is a dress worthy of your presence, Miss Dunn.
00:38:30It's from our exclusive collection.
00:38:32I'll take it.
00:38:34Class cannot be taught.
00:38:41Oh, Charlotte.
00:38:43I'm just teasing.
00:38:44Here, let me buy you a dress to make it up to you.
00:38:48Go on, try it on.
00:38:50I insist.
00:39:00Well, well, well.
00:39:02Look at you, Charlotte.
00:39:04You clean up nicely.
00:39:10I guess that dress just doesn't work for you.
00:39:13You're better off in your ragged clothes.
00:39:15And you will have to pay damages, of course.
00:39:18I'm sure that dress is worth more than your monthly salary.
00:39:22Ciao, Bianca.
00:39:25Come on, Charlotte.
00:39:26The gala awaits.
00:39:44Freddie.
00:39:46I'm so glad you can make it.
00:39:49Yeah, good evening, Diana.
00:39:59Well, well.
00:40:00If it isn't Little Miss Cinderella wearing a dress made of rags.
00:40:04Actually, this is the same gown from earlier, just with some alterations.
00:40:07You can't just...
00:40:09This is a black tie event, not a costume party.
00:40:12Well, I believe true style comes from within, not a designer label.
00:40:17Just remember, Charlotte, you still work for me.
00:40:19You're lucky I don't fire you, Charlotte.
00:40:23I think it's time for you to leave, Diana.
00:40:25But I...
00:40:27Freddie.
00:40:29Goodbye, Diana.
00:40:37You look absolutely beautiful.
00:40:41We need an answer before the press conference starts.
00:40:44We're willing to offer a substantial investment.
00:40:47Just say the word.
00:40:49Freddie, say the word.
00:40:50If it isn't the man of the hour, huh?
00:40:54Freddie Jones thinks so.
00:40:56It's the best key.
00:40:57I'm the one who's gonna invest in a little film, pretty boy.
00:41:01Whether you like it or not.
00:41:04And who might this lovely lady be?
00:41:11Harm candy for the night, no doubt.
00:41:15Watch your mouth, Zebeski.
00:41:18He's got a temper.
00:41:22What are you gonna do about it, pretty boy?
00:41:26Listen, Zebeski.
00:41:27You're not gonna invest in my film.
00:41:29Or disrespect my girl again.
00:41:32Do you understand?
00:41:36Freddie, walk away.
00:41:48Quite a scene you caused earlier, Zebeski.
00:41:50What do you want, Diana?
00:41:52I couldn't help but overhear your little altercation with Freddie.
00:41:56Seems like we both have something to gain by taking him down a peck or two.
00:42:02I'm listening.
00:42:03It's simple.
00:42:04You want money and a taste of that pretty little assistant of his.
00:42:07I want Freddie.
00:42:09And I think I know a way where we can both get what we desire.
00:42:14I like the way you think, Diana.
00:42:17What do you have in mind?
00:42:19We hold a press conference.
00:42:20And when Freddie's distracted, I'll announce our new film together, cementing me at his side.
00:42:25I love it.
00:42:27When do we start?
00:42:29Leave it to me, Zebeski.
00:42:31Leave it to me, Zebeski.
00:42:31You just play your part when the time comes.
00:42:33You just put your hands in your face.
00:42:40Freddie, on the gala, I saw something. Your teeth, they were normal.
00:42:49And the way you fought Zebeski.
00:42:51But what's going on?
00:42:54I'll tell you, Charlotte.
00:42:57Only because we're bonded by blood.
00:42:59What the hell does that mean?
00:43:00It means I'm a vampire.
00:43:10You know, when I was a little girl, I always dreamed of becoming a vampire.
00:43:15The magic, the mystery of it all.
00:43:19Life became nothing but work and pills.
00:43:23The thing about magic, Charlotte?
00:43:27So you just gotta know where to look.
00:43:38The magic still there, Charlotte?
00:43:40You just gotta know where to look.
00:43:48I'm dying now, baby.
00:43:53Did you hear me mean to say goodbye?
00:44:03I can't think I'm one good reason why.
00:44:09I need you now.
00:44:12I need you now.
00:44:17Hey, Charlotte.
00:44:19I'm beginning to talk to you about being Diana's assistant.
00:44:23Look, I honestly don't like the way she's been mistreating you and I don't want you working for her anymore.
00:44:29And I've been thinking, if you need help financially or otherwise, I got you.
00:44:37You can't take that.
00:44:40I don't want to rely on you
00:44:42But I insist you take it
00:44:45I would feel a whole lot better
00:44:46Please
00:44:48Fine
00:44:49But just for emergencies
00:45:00It's Diana
00:45:02She's been blowing up my phone all night
00:45:07Signore
00:45:17Diana
00:45:25You know she's not going to stop calling
00:45:28She'll answer it
00:45:30Diana
00:45:32What do you want?
00:45:33You're with Freddy, aren't you?
00:45:35It's none of your business
00:45:37Actually
00:45:39Business is why I'm calling
00:45:41I have a proposition for the both of you
00:45:43So we can be done with all of this
00:45:46Nonsense
00:45:57We're here to settle things like you said
00:45:58No more games
00:45:59I already told her about us
00:46:01So you can't hang that over my head
00:46:03Splendid
00:46:04I hate secrets between friends
00:46:07On that note
00:46:08This was going to be a surprise
00:46:09But Pam
00:46:12You goddamn bitch
00:46:18Oh my god
00:46:20I can't believe my daughter's dating people's sexiest man alive
00:46:25Two years ago but charmed
00:46:27Thank you
00:46:29With how hard Charlotte's been working
00:46:30I thought this would be a nice treat
00:46:32It was so nice of you to fly me here
00:46:34Why didn't you tell me your boss is so generous?
00:46:37Diana's very humble
00:46:38And she doesn't like people talking about her generosity
00:46:43What are you doing?
00:46:44I just wanted to show you the gold digging trash you've been in bed with
00:46:48Watch this
00:46:51Pam's been telling me a lot about life in the country
00:46:53And how hard it's been
00:46:56Yes, that's true
00:46:57With your dad's back surgery he needs
00:47:00And the black mold in the house
00:47:01They might have to sell and it breaks my heart
00:47:03That's none of your concern, Diana
00:47:05But it could be
00:47:07What if I wrote your mother a check for two million dollars?
00:47:11In exchange for what?
00:47:13You leaving Freddie alone
00:47:16Forever
00:47:19Two million dollars?
00:47:22Would that cover it, Mom?
00:47:24Oh, yeah
00:47:25I guess it would
00:47:29We don't want your money, Diana
00:47:31And I won't be bullied out of ending my relationship
00:47:33Not by you
00:47:34Not by anyone
00:47:38Well, then there's nothing left to consider
00:47:41Your happiness is all that matters, sweetheart
00:47:43I'm sorry, but we don't need your money
00:47:47Not if it be sacrificing my daughter's heart
00:47:52You're making a mistake, both of you
00:47:54But if that's how you want to play it, fine
00:47:57Just know that I do have a plan B
00:47:59And trust me
00:48:01You're not gonna like it
00:48:02You're done here, Diana
00:48:04And as far as your plan B
00:48:07We'll handle that together
00:48:09Come on, ladies
00:48:10Let's go
00:48:17This isn't over
00:48:18Not by a long shot
00:48:25All right, you two
00:48:26So let's review
00:48:28Diana, you're gonna go out first
00:48:29People are gonna be super excited to see you
00:48:31And then you're gonna introduce Freddie
00:48:32Freddie, they're gonna be equally excited to see you
00:48:35Then the two of you will talk about the movie
00:48:37And then you'll take questions from the journalists
00:48:39Sound good?
00:48:40Sounds great
00:48:41Fantastic
00:48:42Oh, they're ready to go
00:48:43We gotta get out there
00:48:44Otherwise, we're gonna keep them waiting
00:48:45And we do not want to do that
00:48:46They look perfect
00:48:47Great job
00:48:48Come on, you two
00:48:48Let's go
00:48:49No, no, you look perfect
00:48:50You don't need to check yourself
00:48:50Let's go
00:49:04It isn't a pretty little assistant
00:49:09What are you doing, you
00:49:10Thinking about your blood, Charlotte
00:49:13About the way it tastes
00:49:17The way it must feel
00:49:19Rolling down
00:49:21My throat
00:49:22Stay away from me
00:49:23I'm warning you
00:49:24Or what?
00:49:25You're warning me
00:49:26What are you gonna do, sweetheart?
00:49:28Go for help
00:49:32You know, we just want to thank you for coming with me so much for us
00:49:35And now, without further ado
00:49:37Let's welcome the man of the hour
00:49:40Freddie Jones
00:49:48I think your blood
00:49:51Will be the sweetest I've tasted in years
00:49:54And I'm gonna savor
00:49:56Every last breath
00:50:04Come on, Freddie
00:50:06Charlie
00:50:09What?
00:50:10What?
00:50:11And I'm going to savor
00:50:13Every last breath
00:50:18Get out of here, son
00:50:21Freddie
00:50:28I see you around my girl again
00:50:30Zabeski
00:50:31I'll rip out your fucking throat
00:50:38Charlotte
00:50:41Are you okay?
00:50:43You came back
00:50:45I'll always come back for you, Charlotte
00:50:55I'm sorry, everyone
00:50:56I'm not sure what's keeping Freddie
00:51:06Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you
00:51:08You guys have some time
00:51:08Sorry I'm late
00:51:09You all know how I like to make a very dramatic entrance
00:51:13There are two things I would like to talk about
00:51:16First one is
00:51:17I'm really proud of this film that Diane and I have made
00:51:20Me too, Freddie
00:51:21I think it is a great project for us to end on and go off on our own
00:51:27Two, I would really like to introduce you all to something very special to me
00:51:31She's the one of the bravest, smartest, most beautiful woman in this town
00:51:36My new career advisor
00:51:38And future, Miss Freddie Jones
00:51:40Miss Charlotte Sims, everybody
00:51:47Thank you
00:51:54I'm so sorry I didn't tell you about the announcement
00:51:56It's okay
00:51:57Just from now on, no more secrets
00:51:59We're going to face the challenges together
00:52:02I love you, Charlotte
00:52:03I love you, too
00:52:06I do want to ask you one thing, though
00:52:07Yeah, anything
00:52:09Could you ask for my father's blessing?
00:52:11It's a tradition in my family
00:52:12It would mean the world to me
00:52:15I would be honored to ask your father for his blessing to marry you
00:52:18But remember, you don't have to tell him everything
00:52:20Okay
00:52:21Come here
00:52:33Alexander? Zelda?
00:52:34I need to speak with you now
00:52:42Alexander? Zelda?
00:52:44I need to speak with you now
00:52:45Diana?
00:52:47What brings you here in such a state?
00:52:49It's Freddie
00:52:50Your son has gone too far this time
00:52:52He's announced his engagement to a human
00:52:55At a press conference, no less
00:52:57A human?
00:52:59Are you certain?
00:53:01Yes
00:53:01Some nobody named Charlotte Sims
00:53:04He's putting our entire order at risk by telling all of our secrets to her
00:53:10This cannot be allowed to continue
00:53:12The secrecy of our kind is of the utmost importance
00:53:15I couldn't agree more, Zelda
00:53:17That's why I came to you
00:53:18I worry about Freddie and I fear that he's not thinking clearly
00:53:22What do we really know about this Charlotte girl?
00:53:25She could be a threat to our whole way of life
00:53:29We cannot take any risks
00:53:32We'll handle this matter personally
00:53:35You have our word
00:53:44So we thought we'd come in on Friday and stay the weekend
00:53:47Oh, we probably need bodyguards
00:53:50The whole town has gone crazy since you two went public
00:53:52We felt like celebrities at Walmart today
00:53:55But I don't know
00:53:56Why would a movie star want to come all the way to Whitewater, Minnesota?
00:54:00Well, I just want to see where Charlotte grew up
00:54:01And honestly, I want to come and meet you, sir
00:54:03Plus, we have some news
00:54:05I knew it!
00:54:06I knew it!
00:54:07Freddie, you're going to get you the most beautiful, most expensive wedding dress ever, aren't you?
00:54:11Oh, yeah, you bet
00:54:12No, you're not
00:54:13Mom, you've been saving your wedding dress for 25 years so I could wear it
00:54:18Well, it has a tear, remember?
00:54:20I mean, it's going to look like an old sackcloth compared to what Freddie can get you
00:54:23Well, I'm not getting married in anything else
00:54:25So if you don't want me wearing my birthday suit at my wedding, you better mend it
00:54:29Alright, alright
00:54:30Love you
00:54:32Bye
00:54:45Something's wrong
00:54:47I've been trying to get my parents since yesterday and they haven't answered their phones
00:54:50Okay, I'm sure everything's fine, Charlotte
00:54:52It's not like my mom to not answer
00:54:54Look, your mom is just super excited about us coming to visit
00:54:57I'm sure she's just caught up on all the preparations
00:54:59Maybe you're right, but I have a really bad feeling
00:55:02Okay, alright, well, I can call a pilot and we can head over there right now and check
00:55:08Let's go
00:55:15Mom?
00:55:17Dad, is anyone here?
00:55:23This is where they said to meet them
00:55:29Freddie, I think something's happened to them
00:55:31Charlotte, don't worry
00:55:32We'll find them, okay?
00:55:34I promise
00:55:41Thank you for joining us on such short notice
00:55:45Oh, well, we've never been to the West Coast before, so we don't mind the change of plans
00:55:50And we'd just as soon come out here then have Freddie business there
00:55:54My phone can't get service
00:55:56I was hoping to tell Charlotte where we are
00:55:58We're in a dead zone
00:56:01They'll be joining us shortly
00:56:03In the meantime, we wanted the chance to get to know you
00:56:07Our son's welfare is of the utmost importance to us
00:56:10And so we'd like to know what sort of stock he is associating with
00:56:17We have the same concern about Charlotte
00:56:19Yeah, we don't know much about these powerful Hollywood types
00:56:23But what we do know, it's not very wholesome
00:56:25Like sex slaves and
00:56:27Clones
00:56:28Yeah, clones
00:56:30We don't have slaves
00:56:32Or clones
00:56:34But there are many reasons why Charlotte and Freddie's union could be complicated
00:56:40Challenging
00:56:41Even dangerous
00:56:44Dangerous?
00:56:46The truth is we brought you here to ask you some very important questions
00:56:52Please follow us to the parlor
00:57:01All right, thank you
00:57:03I've got private investigators here and in Minnesota
00:57:06And I've called in favors with anyone we know in law enforcement
00:57:10Charlotte
00:57:11We're gonna find them
00:57:13I promise
00:57:15Are you okay?
00:57:17I'm hanging in there
00:57:19Look, I'm gonna go
00:57:20But I'll be back soon
00:57:21Where are you going?
00:57:22I'll go talk to somebody
00:57:23You might know what the hell is going on
00:57:28I'll be back
00:57:43Where are they?
00:57:44I don't know what you're talking about
00:57:46Charlotte's parents are missing
00:57:47Oh, heavens
00:57:48Hopefully they didn't get lost remembering which trailer's theirs
00:57:51Okay, Diana
00:57:52Tell me where they are
00:57:53I'm gonna rip you in half
00:57:58Coleman
00:57:59Charlotte's parents turned up on a security camera at LAX
00:58:02They're not with Diana
00:58:05Okay, well where are they now?
00:58:07They're with your parents
00:58:09Why the hell are they within?
00:58:11You told the human our secrets
00:58:13They're tying up your loose ends
00:58:31That's so good
00:58:32Oh, hi
00:58:36You're okay?
00:58:38Okay, we're better than okay
00:58:39We're having a great time
00:58:41What took you so long?
00:58:43Mom, Dad, what are they doing here?
00:58:46You let the cat out of the bag
00:58:48We had to vet Charlotte, make sure she was all right
00:58:51If we're going to share our darkest secrets with her
00:58:54Not to mention our only son
00:58:57Okay, and?
00:59:00Charlotte is a lovely young woman
00:59:03A good student, a hard worker
00:59:06You picked a good one
00:59:08And her parents are fun
00:59:10Ooh, aren't they?
00:59:12Who knew thousand-year-old vampires and Midwesterners had a lot in common?
00:59:16Both kind of slow to change
00:59:18We went to the bar and it was unlocked
00:59:20No one was there
00:59:21Ted, did you forget to fix the deadbolt again?
00:59:25Uh, yeah, I meant to
00:59:27But, you know, with everything going on
00:59:28I think I must have forgot
00:59:31Alexander is the same way
00:59:32Completely useless around the house
00:59:35But I am good with toasts
00:59:38Here's to a beautiful journey
00:59:40No road is long when you have good company
00:59:44To the happy cuppa
00:59:46Cheers
01:00:00By the power vested in me
01:00:02I now pronounce you husband and wife
01:00:22Congratulations
01:00:23I guess the best woman won
01:00:25So I don't have to worry about you anymore?
01:00:27No
01:00:29I've moved on
01:00:31Are you serious?
01:00:32Yeah
01:00:33She's crazy
01:00:34But she knows the business
01:00:35And she gets me
01:00:38Good luck with that, brother
01:00:39Yeah, I've known you for 200 years
01:00:41Charlotte
01:00:42Good luck with that
01:00:45I just have one question
01:00:53What is it?
01:00:56Is she gonna drink milk?
01:00:59No
01:01:01No, I'm just kidding
01:01:02Kit K
01:01:02Oh
01:01:02Oh
01:01:02Oh
01:01:03Oh
01:01:03Oh
