00:00:00You need us to worship Sabrina.
00:00:02What happened?
00:00:02Sabrina was a rising star, and Preston Eastwood,
00:00:06the man that broke my wife's heart into stealing it back again.
00:00:09You think you can divorce America's sweetheart?
00:00:12You will end up with nothing.
00:00:13The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:00:16I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever!
00:00:19Why don't you make this little vacay of yours?
00:00:21Her neck.
00:00:22Get out of Hollywood.
00:00:23In fact, get out of the country.
00:00:26I gave it everything I had.
00:00:28Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:00:31No!
00:00:32What have I done?
00:00:33He can't be gone! He can't!
00:00:35Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:00:38Being with me hurt his career.
00:00:40Look at what you've got.
00:00:41You have everything.
00:00:43I don't have him.
00:00:46Daniel!
00:00:47He still loves me.
00:00:48He has to.
00:00:49And we need to find him at all costs.
00:00:51Daniel!
00:00:59And the Oscar goes to...
00:01:00Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:01:07That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:01:10Who knew the House hubby had it in him?
00:01:11I'm an industry joke now.
00:01:14Daniel, is it true that the script that won you oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf
00:01:19for 10 years?
00:01:20Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way
00:01:25back.
00:01:26I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:01:33Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:01:38You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:01:44Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:01:48If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own
00:01:54son will belong to her.
00:01:57I'll always love my son, but he's a bully and he learned it from the best in the business, his
00:02:02grandmother.
00:02:03You used to worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:02:06That was a long time ago.
00:02:08America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide. All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:02:14But her career is hanging by a thread. I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:02:21You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:02:24She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her. So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:02:33I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:02:36And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:02:39If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to
00:02:46her.
00:02:46This was the last one.
00:02:50Mom, Daniel.
00:02:52What's going on?
00:02:56What's going on?
00:02:58Honey!
00:03:00I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:03:04If the paparazzi catch him next to you, oh.
00:03:07But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:03:12Think about it, Daniel.
00:03:17Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts.
00:03:21Then I will be free.
00:03:23Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:03:25Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:03:29I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:03:33I saw it. Preston was there.
00:03:36I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college. I mean, we owe him.
00:03:41Yeah, and then he cheated on you. And I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:03:45I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:03:47Lunch is on the stove.
00:03:49But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:52No! I want to eat now!
00:03:54Ow!
00:04:00Hmm, you always know the spot.
00:04:06He doesn't listen.
00:04:08Daniel, please.
00:04:09I had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:04:17I got something I need to tell you. I'll make it quick.
00:04:19This isn't easy, but I'm...
00:04:21Ew, what is this?
00:04:22It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:04:25I don't want healthy food. I want chicken nuggets. Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets.
00:04:30You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:04:33But I want them.
00:04:34Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:04:38You suck! I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:49I waited. I gave it everything I had. But it takes two to make a marriage work. And my self
00:04:57-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me. Enough. Just enough.
00:05:08I want a divorce. I want a divorce.
00:05:17Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:05:19Huh?
00:05:22I want a...
00:05:25I want chicken nuggets! Give me chicken nuggets!
00:05:28Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay? Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some
00:05:35real food.
00:05:40Seriously. Your only job is to take care of the house and the family. I mean, it's not that hard.
00:05:47What is this? Another contract? How big is the role?
00:05:52Who's directing?
00:05:54It's not a...
00:05:55Whatever. My mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:57Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:06:00Honestly, I am really at my capacity. I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you
00:06:07to pull your weight.
00:06:08Pull my weight?
00:06:09Yeah, you get it.
00:06:12Mwah! Love you.
00:06:14I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years. If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:06:21Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:06:31The movie's Greenland, and the studio wants you to direct. We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:06:36I can't. My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:06:39After all I've sacrificed, my scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:06:47At least there is one good thing to come from this. I was able to use the money Celeste gave
00:06:52me to save my mother's life.
00:06:54Hey, Mom. How you doing?
00:06:55Oh, good, dear.
00:06:57I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:07:01Do you need more?
00:07:02No, no, no, no. You've already done so much.
00:07:05I'm just trying to help.
00:07:06I know.
00:07:07But I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:07:11I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:07:18I am, Mom. And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:07:28You look so wonderful, dear.
00:07:29You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:07:32Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:07:34I gotta go. Love you.
00:07:38What is it, Mom?
00:07:40Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:07:42Our favorite leading man.
00:07:44Come on.
00:07:51Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back again.
00:07:58Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:08:08All right, cut. That's a wrap, everyone. Thank you.
00:08:12We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:08:15Sabrina was a rising star.
00:08:17I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:22Our future's ahead of us.
00:08:25If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:45I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:45I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:45I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:46I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:47I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:47I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:47I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:47I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:48I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:48I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:48I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:50I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:50I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:54And I was just the director's assistant.
00:08:58You destroyed me, Preston.
00:09:03There's nothing left.
00:09:16Sabrina, don't!
00:09:19Stay back. I mean it.
00:09:22Sabrina, don't do this.
00:09:25Just...
00:09:29Just give me your hand.
00:09:41No!
00:09:44Daniel!
00:09:45I got you.
00:09:47No! Don't let me go!
00:09:49I won't ever let you go.
00:09:56I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:10:00Nobody sees the real me.
00:10:01I see you, Sabrina.
00:10:03I see all of you.
00:10:05And you're never going to be alone again.
00:10:15Good to see ya!
00:10:16Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:10:18Oh, too long!
00:10:19Look at you!
00:10:20Stop!
00:10:21Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:10:24Yeah, of course, babe.
00:10:25Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:10:27Are you kidding?
00:10:27Oh, Daniel, Preston's going to stay with us for a bit, but you don't mind, right?
00:10:31Oh, there he is!
00:10:33The assistant!
00:10:34I'll tell you what, there's no one who grabs coffee quite like this guy.
00:10:38How did someone like you end up with a blonde bombshell like my Sabrina?
00:10:43Stop!
00:10:44I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:49Oh, Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:53Daniel!
00:10:54Don't embarrass me.
00:10:56No, it's fine.
00:10:57I'm sorry.
00:10:57Whoa!
00:10:57You played Brett Stale in your action spy movie?
00:11:01He's not just tough, he's Brett Stale tough, you think, you know?
00:11:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:11:08He doesn't let me do anything.
00:11:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of Dad's rules.
00:11:13What are you saying, huh?
00:11:14Yeah!
00:11:15Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:11:19It's fine.
00:11:20It's fine.
00:11:21Just relax, okay?
00:11:23Be nice.
00:11:32Some people never change.
00:11:34But once our divorce is finalized, I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:41Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:42But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this hill.
00:11:52Oh, careful.
00:11:54You all right?
00:11:57I'm still starving.
00:11:59Make me some food.
00:12:01Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:12:03Stew?
00:12:05Ew.
00:12:05What is this, a soup kitchen?
00:12:07I told you a hundred times I want chicken nuggets!
00:12:10Daniel, if the kid wants nuggets, just give him nuggets.
00:12:13I'm trying to teach my son how to be grateful for what he already has.
00:12:16Daniel, I'm a billionaire.
00:12:21For real?
00:12:22Yeah.
00:12:23My makeup line took me all the way to the top.
00:12:26Donovan Cosmetics.
00:12:28I'm rich.
00:12:30Which means we don't have to be grateful.
00:12:33I mean, that's just something poor people tell themselves so that they're happy with nothing.
00:12:38See, Daniel, that was always your problem.
00:12:39You're so caught up on the morals.
00:12:41You realize that's why no one bought your scripts.
00:12:43They were so dull.
00:12:44Please, Mr. Eastwood, my dad won't let me have anything!
00:12:47Lucky for you, Uncle Preston is a little bit of a rebel.
00:12:52So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:12:55My turn.
00:12:57Here we go.
00:12:58What?
00:12:59Yeah.
00:12:59Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:13:01I don't mind.
00:13:02All of you insist.
00:13:03I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:13:05So...
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:08Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:13:13So...
00:13:13Anyways.
00:13:14Come on, Ben.
00:13:14Let's go.
00:13:16Looks great.
00:13:17Gotcha.
00:13:17There we go.
00:13:19Oh.
00:13:21There's Paps.
00:13:22You don't have to come, Daniel.
00:13:24Last time.
00:13:25I promise.
00:13:28You're right.
00:13:29It is the last time.
00:13:32Hey, guys.
00:13:35Hi.
00:13:36Jackson.
00:13:38Jackson.
00:13:42Well, did you use your brain or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:46Contract's fine.
00:13:49It's over.
00:13:50Why don't you meet me at the Oaks to finalize the paperwork?
00:13:54I hope you're ready to go on without a penny to your name.
00:13:58To ten years of heartbreak?
00:13:59I don't care if I walk away with nothing.
00:14:18Why would Celeste invite me here?
00:14:21She must have known this is where they were going for dinner.
00:14:26Sabrina Donovan?
00:14:27I could scream.
00:14:28I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:14:30Preston Eastwood.
00:14:31I haven't seen the two of you together since breaking the ice.
00:14:34OMG.
00:14:35I used to always replay that scene where you guys kiss at the hockey rink.
00:14:37A scene that I wrote.
00:14:39Uncredited, of course.
00:14:40Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:43Wait.
00:14:43Are you two dating?
00:14:44Oh, well, actually...
00:14:46This is totally a date.
00:14:48All these years, I couldn't even be seen with her in public.
00:14:55Do you mind just giving me a little space?
00:14:58You're not really a part of my brand.
00:15:00Your brand?
00:15:01It's just, it's not a good look for me.
00:15:03You get it, right?
00:15:13So, you two are a thing?
00:15:15Well, I...
00:15:16It's okay, babe.
00:15:17We don't have to lie to our biggest fans.
00:15:27This is so going viral.
00:15:29I can't believe you guys are dating.
00:15:30It looks like more than dating.
00:15:33Is this your son?
00:15:34I wish I was his son, Jackson.
00:15:37Don't be silly.
00:15:38You have a dad, and he's a sissy.
00:15:41That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:43He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:46But Preston is awesome.
00:15:49He's an action spy.
00:15:50I wish he was my dad.
00:15:53My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:56But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants
00:15:58when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood after party
00:16:01with a call girl.
00:16:02It's okay, buddy.
00:16:03Every spy needs a partner in crime.
00:16:05If you want me around, I'm in.
00:16:08That is if mom's school with it.
00:16:10Oh, Preston, I don't know.
00:16:12Daniel, he, you know, he's...
00:16:14Preston, what are you doing?
00:16:18Come on.
00:16:19Come on.
00:16:19Let's get Michelle.
00:16:32Come on.
00:16:36Let's get Michelle.
00:16:37Let's get a couple.
00:16:40I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:43Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:49Daniel!
00:16:50Daniel!
00:16:51You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:53From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:57Daniel.
00:16:57Daniel, he's here?
00:16:58He...
00:16:59Did he see us?
00:17:00Is he looking over here?
00:17:01Fuck, that's not good.
00:17:02I was just doing that for publicity.
00:17:04I didn't mean for him to see us.
00:17:05Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:17:07Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:17:11Who cares about him, mommy?
00:17:13Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:17:14Jackson, enough.
00:17:17What do I do?
00:17:19Well, that's it then.
00:17:21Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:17:23I need to leverage her relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:17:26I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:29You're really good at that.
00:17:31Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:35A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:41I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:45I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:49Daniel loves me. He has to understand.
00:17:51This is Hollywood. It's just part of the job.
00:17:55Daniel, I can explain.
00:18:02Daniel, what is this?
00:18:05I can't let her create a public scene.
00:18:07All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:18:10Are you going somewhere?
00:18:12Honey!
00:18:13Oh, what a coincidence.
00:18:15We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:18:18Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:18:20A vacation?
00:18:21Finally. You're paying attention.
00:18:24Yeah.
00:18:25I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:27Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:29What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:31Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:32That's not what I meant.
00:18:33Whoa.
00:18:34Looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:36That's fine.
00:18:37Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit.
00:18:40Just like any good husband would.
00:18:42Oh, I see. Is it me?
00:18:45Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:47I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:49I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:51You know what?
00:18:52Maybe I should go.
00:18:53I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:55No, please stay.
00:18:56I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:59No, you know what?
00:19:00I'll go.
00:19:02And clearly she wants you.
00:19:04I'm willing to dance to his tune.
00:19:05Daniel, wait.
00:19:07I won't ever let you go.
00:19:09He won't leave.
00:19:10He promised.
00:19:12It doesn't have to be like this.
00:19:14We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:19:17I'm going to go back.
00:19:21Daniel!
00:19:33Oh, good. You're up.
00:19:35Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel Air.
00:19:40It's fun.
00:19:42What? Don't look at me like that.
00:19:44I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:46Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:51Not lucky for him.
00:19:52He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:55Oh.
00:19:55Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:59Okay.
00:19:59Listen, man.
00:20:00I...
00:20:01I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:20:05You can trust me.
00:20:08Preston, I think you're too drunk.
00:20:10You need to go right now.
00:20:12Alright.
00:20:13Oh, hey.
00:20:15Daniel, seriously.
00:20:16Listen, man.
00:20:16I...
00:20:17When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:20:23I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:20:26Just ignore him.
00:20:27He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:29No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:32Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:34Jealous?
00:20:37My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:40Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:44You know, I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:51That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:57Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:21:02My God.
00:21:04God, you're unbelievable.
00:21:08Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:21:13No, it's not like that.
00:21:15I...
00:21:16What?
00:21:17You know what?
00:21:18Fine.
00:21:21You two look great together.
00:21:23Daniel, I...
00:21:36And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:43Um...
00:21:47I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:51Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:55I was never the homemaker.
00:22:00Please, Daniel.
00:22:13I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:22:21If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:24I have a press junket tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:39Look at her now.
00:22:40Playing house for another man.
00:22:42If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:23:03There he is.
00:23:04God, I wish I could sleep in till 8 a.m.
00:23:07Man.
00:23:08No, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:23:11Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:23:15Got some.
00:23:16Yeah.
00:23:17What do you need?
00:23:18Oh, oh.
00:23:19Yeah, there you go.
00:23:20I'd offer you some of this shit, but I doubt you'd like it.
00:23:23Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:25Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:31Hey, uh, you're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:36No?
00:23:37A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:40Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:45It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:58What's wrong, Jackson?
00:24:00Mr. Eastwood!
00:24:01I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:24:05And it's unfair!
00:24:06That's a shame, huh?
00:24:07You know what?
00:24:08Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:24:09Here we go.
00:24:11Ooh.
00:24:12No, it's not to play with them.
00:24:16You never let me do anything!
00:24:19Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:22You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:24It's not about the money.
00:24:25It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:28Unfortunately, he's surrounded by bad examples.
00:24:32Yeah?
00:24:33What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:35You're so annoying!
00:24:38Don't push.
00:24:44I said don't push.
00:24:45Go get a book or something.
00:24:46Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:48He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-servant like you.
00:24:51God, what the hell is you just showing me?
00:24:56Call it a lesson.
00:24:57I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:59He's not your kid.
00:25:00I wish I was!
00:25:02I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever!
00:25:05I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:25:07Ouch!
00:25:08I mean, you just heard your son.
00:25:10So why don't you make this little vacay of yours permanent?
00:25:12Maybe it will be.
00:25:14But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:17You?
00:25:19Man of the house?
00:25:20Please.
00:25:21You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:22I'd be embarrassed to call you a maid, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:26And you're a washed up pack!
00:25:27Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:29How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:32I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:34I'm a fucking star!
00:25:36A star?
00:25:36A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:40Jackson, come on.
00:25:41I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:43No, I'm not going!
00:25:45Preston's way cooler than you!
00:25:47Preston!
00:25:48Preston!
00:25:49Preston!
00:26:11You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:15What was that?
00:26:22Daniel!
00:26:24What is happening?
00:26:25It was Dad, Mom!
00:26:27Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood!
00:26:29What?
00:26:29I'm so scared!
00:26:30You got me pretty good, babe.
00:26:32What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:33I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:35I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:36What?
00:26:37I didn't.
00:26:37Daniel, what the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:39You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:41I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:43He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:45It's just a fucking fish tank!
00:26:46Grow up!
00:26:47Remember we're in the public eye?
00:26:49What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:52What?
00:26:52Everyone knows your precious Preston attacked me?
00:26:56Maybe I should go while I'm sorry.
00:26:58No!
00:26:59Oh my God!
00:27:01He's lying!
00:27:03You're a monster!
00:27:04And in front of your son?
00:27:06You have to be kidding!
00:27:08We have to get you to the hospital.
00:27:09Yeah.
00:27:11We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:13What?
00:27:14Clean this up!
00:27:17Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:21Oh!

00:41:44Hello?
00:41:45Excuse me. Excuse me.
00:41:48Hi. Have you seen my husband?
00:41:51Please. He was
00:41:52someone bleeding out. I saw him
00:41:54stumble outside holding his head after he
00:41:56spoke to some older woman. He didn't come back
00:41:58in, though.
00:42:01Oh, no.
00:42:03Oh, Daniel, where are you?
00:42:05I'm sorry, but the number
00:42:06you are trying to reach is no longer in service.

00:42:11What have I done?
00:42:22Come on, Daniel.
00:42:24Answer me.
00:42:30He's not gone.
00:42:42He loves me too much to abandon me when I need him
00:42:46the most.
00:42:47No.
00:42:50It's not possible.
00:42:52He will be back.
00:42:55No.
00:43:06Boy, it's all assets.
00:43:08Climb zero, Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:11The waves are all spousal support.
00:43:14No.
00:43:15No, he can't leave me.
00:43:16He can't do this to me.
00:43:18I won't sign off on him.
00:43:20No.
00:43:25No.
00:43:26No.
00:43:30All this time, he's going to leave me.
00:43:48It can't be.
00:43:52It's not us.
00:43:53Honestly, it doesn't matter.
00:43:54My mom will look it over anyways.
00:43:56He loves me.
00:43:58He loves Jackson.
00:44:00He wouldn't just leave us.
00:44:02We're his family.
00:44:04After all these years,
00:44:06everything we've been through.
00:44:09Ahem.
00:44:29I got you.
00:44:30Don't let me go.
00:44:33Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:39Daniel?
00:44:40No, it's Mom.
00:44:42Is everything okay?
00:44:43You sound panicked.
00:44:44Mom.
00:44:46Mom.
00:44:47Daniel.
00:44:48He just left us.
00:44:51Do you know where he is?
00:44:54We have to find him.
00:44:55We can check the hospital or the...
00:44:57Oh, honey.
00:44:59It's over.
00:45:00Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:02You knew?
00:45:03I'll come over in the morning
00:45:05and explain everything.
00:45:14I'm hungry!
00:45:16Dad!
00:45:17Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:45:20Jackson?
00:45:23I have something to tell you.
00:45:27Your dad.
00:45:30Your dad.
00:45:32He's left us.
00:45:34I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:36Yay!
00:45:37He's gone!
00:45:38He's gone!
00:45:39Why would you say that?
00:45:41He was so embarrassing.
00:45:43Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:45:44Mr. Eastwood?
00:45:46What did Preston say?
00:45:48He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:45:50should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:45:52than raising a young man.
00:45:54He was so lame and boring.
00:45:57Now he's gone.
00:45:58Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:46:00He can be my new dad.
00:46:02Jackson!
00:46:03You have a dad.
00:46:05And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:46:07Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:15Hello?
00:46:16Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:18Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:20I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:22I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:24Large sums have been wired to someone named
00:46:27Preston Eastwood.
00:46:28Was that done with your approval?
00:46:30No.
00:46:30But I'm not surprised.
00:46:32Flag his name.
00:46:33I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:37Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you say
00:46:39Preston's name again.
00:46:41Okay?
00:46:42He's not the man you think he is.
00:46:44Your father, the one who raised you
00:46:46and cared about you
00:46:47is out there
00:46:47and we need to find him
00:46:49at all costs.
00:46:50What kind of coward
00:46:52abandons his family?
00:46:54Huh?
00:46:54It's despicable.
00:46:56I can't do this anymore.
00:46:58I cancel everything.
00:47:00The interviews,
00:47:01the red carpets.
00:47:02I don't want to be seen.
00:47:05I can't pretend.
00:47:07I just want him back.
00:47:09Oh, honey.
00:47:11It's time to let him go.
00:47:13You don't love him anyway
00:47:14and think about what Preston
00:47:17would do for your career.
00:47:21What?
00:47:22How could you say something like that?
00:47:25Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:27He cares for me.
00:47:28He sees me.
00:47:29He was there for me
00:47:31when Preston dropped me
00:47:32like I was nothing.
00:47:34But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:47:37Daniel's my husband
00:47:39and the father of my son.
00:47:41Yeah, some husband.
00:47:42Abandoning you
00:47:43without a moment's notice.
00:47:44Wanting nothing to do
00:47:45with his child
00:47:45just because the contract ended?
00:47:48Contract?
00:47:50What contract?
00:47:54What are you talking about?
00:47:57Forget it.
00:47:58Forget it.
00:47:59Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:01When I caught you and Daniel
00:48:02at the restaurant the other day,
00:48:04you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:06Is there something
00:48:07you're not telling me?
00:48:08Please.
00:48:09I just want the truth.
00:48:11Mom.
00:48:13Fine.
00:48:14I will tell you the truth.
00:48:16But promise me
00:48:17you won't get mad.
00:48:20I'll tell you the truth,
00:48:22Sabrina.
00:48:24But no,
00:48:25it was all for your own good.
00:48:30When Preston left you,
00:48:32you were distraught.
00:48:33I had to save you.
00:48:35She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:48:39You've always been there for her.
00:48:41From film school to now.
00:48:43I've seen it.
00:48:44She needs you.
00:48:46Stay.
00:48:47Marry her.
00:48:48Love her.
00:48:49So that she's never alone again.
00:48:57It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:01How could you do this to me?
00:49:03I wanted to protect you.
00:49:05You wanted to control me.
00:49:07All because you needed me
00:49:08for my career,
00:49:09my money.
00:49:10Well,
00:49:11it worked, didn't it?
00:49:15You were about to throw yourself
00:49:18off a rooftop.
00:49:19Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:22He kept you together.
00:49:23Where?
00:49:24Where did he go?
00:49:26I know he told you where he went.
00:49:28Where is he?
00:49:29You can do better than him.
00:49:31You are Sabrina Donovan,
00:49:34Hollywood starlet.
00:49:35Believe me,
00:49:36it's for the best.
00:49:37No!
00:49:38He can't be gone!
00:49:39He can't!
00:49:40Yes,
00:49:41he is gone
00:49:42and he is gone
00:49:43forever.
00:49:44He can't be!
00:49:45He can't be gone!
00:49:46He can't!
00:50:06I'm live
00:50:07at the highly anticipated premiere
00:50:09of How to Tame a Silver Fox
00:50:10that's already generated
00:50:12a considerable buzz
00:50:13for its new writer-director.
00:50:16Speaking of which,
00:50:17there he is now,
00:50:18Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:22Daniel,
00:50:23your film received
00:50:24the Palme d'Or
00:50:25at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:26What's going through
00:50:27your head tonight?
00:50:29Honestly,
00:50:30I'm just trying not to trip
00:50:31over my own schtie.
00:50:32Nobody told me how.
00:50:34Oh man,
00:50:35how uncomfortable
00:50:35these designer shoes would be.
00:50:37I've heard this talk
00:50:38of a sequel.
00:50:40Uh, yeah,
00:50:40um,
00:50:41God,
00:50:42my career has been
00:50:42a long time in the making
00:50:44and I've been very honest
00:50:45about it actually.
00:50:46I almost,
00:50:46I almost gave up the dream.
00:50:48But,
00:50:49London,
00:50:50London lit the fire under me
00:50:52and I feel like
00:50:52I've found my voice
00:50:53and it really is
00:50:55full steam ahead.
00:50:56Speaking of London,
00:50:57since you're
00:50:58an American writer-director,
00:50:59will you be making
00:51:00your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:04Hollywood.
00:51:05Get out of the country.
00:51:07If I so much
00:51:08as see your name
00:51:09next to my daughters
00:51:10in a tabloid,
00:51:12I will make your life
00:51:13a living hell.
00:51:17Daniel?
00:51:31He's no good
00:51:32at bragging about himself
00:51:32so I'll do it for him.
00:51:35Daniel is a true auteur
00:51:37and a creative genius
00:51:38and it was a privilege
00:51:40to be his leading lady.
00:51:42That's not a light compliment
00:51:43coming from Emily Blake,
00:51:44two-time Golden Globe
00:51:45award-winning actress
00:51:46and celebrated alumni
00:51:48of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:51:50Well, I've heard that, uh,
00:51:51your relationship
00:51:52wasn't just professional.
00:51:54We'll never tell.
00:51:58Oh, my God.
00:51:59Thanks for saving me.
00:52:00She was practically
00:52:01eye-fucking you.
00:52:02I know.
00:52:03Jeez.
00:52:04This is so surreal.
00:52:05I mean, I can't believe
00:52:06this is happening to me.
00:52:07I can.
00:52:08The moment I read your script,
00:52:10I knew you were special.
00:52:13Daniel,
00:52:15enjoy this
00:52:16and get used to compliments.
00:52:19There's already Oscar buzz.
00:52:21Fuck.
00:52:21Finish me, I know.
00:52:22I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:26You okay?
00:52:28You always do that
00:52:29when you're nervous.
00:52:30I know, it's, um,
00:52:31I'll have it.
00:52:33Well,
00:52:34the world's about to meet
00:52:35its new favourite filmmaker.
00:52:37Some of us just got a head start.
00:52:50I know.
00:52:52Our press is good press.
00:52:57Daniel becomes an award-winning director
00:53:00and he's cheating on me
00:53:02with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:05He can't do this to me.
00:53:07Sabrina,
00:53:08you don't need him.
00:53:09Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:11How can he move on
00:53:12to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:14Move on?
00:53:16Please, honey.
00:53:17He is using her.
00:53:19Why do you think he signed the contract
00:53:21in the first place, hmm?
00:53:22He wanted to start his career
00:53:23under the Donovan name.
00:53:25How could you say that?
00:53:26I mean,
00:53:26if anything,
00:53:28being with me hurt his career.
00:53:30He's proving that
00:53:31to the whole world.
00:53:32Don't you see it?
00:53:33Sabrina,
00:53:35look at what you've got.
00:53:36A celebrated career,
00:53:38a mansion in the hills,
00:53:40an adorable kid.
00:53:42Melanie's not whining.
00:53:44And don't forget about Preston,
00:53:46your dream man.
00:53:47You have everything.
00:53:49I don't have him.
00:53:52Mom,
00:53:52I'm hungry.
00:53:53Go have the chef make something.
00:53:55No,
00:53:55I hate what she cooks
00:53:57and I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:53:58Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:00Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:02He's your dad.
00:54:03No,
00:54:04Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:06Daniel's just a guy
00:54:07who made me snacks
00:54:08and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:09It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:11When did he get so cruel?
00:54:13You see,
00:54:14even your own son thinks
00:54:15Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:17A doormat.
00:54:19Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:21Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:22Enough!
00:54:23You little shit!
00:54:26Enough!
00:54:27Just enough!
00:54:28Sabrina?
00:54:29What's gotten into you?
00:54:31Don't tell me you are actually
00:54:33heartbroken over that man.
00:54:35Whoa.
00:54:36What's going on here?
00:54:37This room feels really tense.
00:54:39Mom just yelled at me
00:54:40for no reason.
00:54:41I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:54:43No!
00:54:43I yelled at you
00:54:44because you're making fun
00:54:45of your father.
00:54:46And if you keep talking like that,
00:54:48I'm going to put you
00:54:48in a time out.
00:54:50It's time that you stop acting
00:54:51like a spoiled little brat.
00:54:56Hey,
00:54:57are you really going to get mad
00:54:59at Jackson for what?
00:55:00Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:02Really?
00:55:02Loser?
00:55:03Yeah.
00:55:03You haven't had a job.
00:55:05in over a year,
00:55:06Preston.
00:55:07And you've been mooching off
00:55:08from me
00:55:08and ordering my staff around
00:55:10like you're their boss.
00:55:15That's really,
00:55:16really low.
00:55:17Especially after everything
00:55:19I've done to help you
00:55:20with your brand
00:55:20and keeping it from collapsing
00:55:22in the last year?
00:55:23Come on,
00:55:23we're America's power couple.
00:55:25To be a power couple,
00:55:26you both have to have power.
00:55:28Face it, Preston.
00:55:29You're using me
00:55:30to hide the fact
00:55:31that you're washed up
00:55:32and you're a fucking thief.
00:55:35Yeah,
00:55:36I know you're bankrupt.
00:55:37You've been stealing from me
00:55:38all year long.
00:55:39I could have you arrested,
00:55:41but I haven't
00:55:42because you know what?
00:55:43Honestly,
00:55:44I pity you.
00:55:45It's not like that,
00:55:47okay?
00:55:47Look,
00:55:47I was just merging things
00:55:49like couples do.
00:55:50I want to marry you.
00:55:51We're legacy Hollywood
00:55:53fucking royalty.
00:55:53What's my birthday?
00:55:55Huh?
00:55:56What kind of flowers
00:55:57do I like?
00:55:58What's my favorite color?
00:55:59My favorite song?
00:56:01Oh,
00:56:01what's my favorite
00:56:02goddamn movie?
00:56:03Oh,
00:56:04oh wait,
00:56:04what's my fucking middle name?
00:56:06You don't give a shit
00:56:08about me.
00:56:09You don't love me.
00:56:10You don't even know me.
00:56:12This isn't a relationship.
00:56:14This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:17And you know what?
00:56:17I'm done.
00:56:19Get out.
00:56:20I don't want to
00:56:21ever see you again.
00:56:22We're over.
00:56:24We're over.

00:56:26Please,
00:56:27I love you.
00:56:28Just,
00:56:28just think about it.
00:56:29Look at the press.
00:56:30What this will look like?
00:56:31If I have to call my security,
00:56:33all of this will get a lot
00:56:35uglier.
00:56:36Get out.
00:56:37Babe,
00:56:37just,
00:56:37now.
00:56:38Just give me your hand.
00:56:39Come on.
00:56:40I'm so alone,
00:56:42Daniel.
00:56:44Nobody sees the real thing.
00:56:45I see you,
00:56:46Sabrina.
00:56:47I see all of you.
00:56:49And you're never
00:56:50going to be alone again.
00:56:52He truly knew me.
00:56:56He loved me.
00:56:58Every flaw,
00:56:59every fear,
00:57:01contract or not,
00:57:03he truly loved me.
00:57:05I saved you from social suicide.
00:57:07Saved me?
00:57:08You don't even know
00:57:10how ironic that is.
00:57:12Daniel saved me
00:57:13from the ledge.
00:57:14And he saved me
00:57:15from you.
00:57:17Security!
00:57:19Security!
00:57:20Come on,
00:57:21just let's talk about this.
00:57:22No.

00:57:24Celeste,
00:57:24do something!
00:57:26Sabrina!
00:57:27Come on,
00:57:28Sabrina!
00:57:29Was that really necessary?
00:57:31I mean,
00:57:31he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:57:33and people's sexiest man alive.
00:57:35Is that all you care about?
00:57:37The fame,
00:57:38the headlines,
00:57:39the brand deals?
00:57:40God,
00:57:41you're supposed to be
00:57:42my mother first,
00:57:43not some money-grubbing manager.
00:57:46Sabrina,
00:57:47you are being dramatic.
00:57:48Of course I care about you.
00:57:51I love you.
00:57:53Then prove it.
00:57:54If you ever want me
00:57:56in front of a camera again,
00:57:57then you will help me
00:57:58get Daniel back.
00:58:11You'll have to forgive me,
00:58:12Miss Jilly.
00:58:13I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:58:15In film school,
00:58:17we were literally told
00:58:18to watch every single film
00:58:19that you ever produced.
00:58:21I mean,
00:58:21you know this.
00:58:22You're a legend.
00:58:24I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:58:25All right,
00:58:25let me cut to the chase.
00:58:27You're a powerhouse-sitting idol
00:58:28in the wrong country.
00:58:29I appreciate the compliment,
00:58:30but I mean,
00:58:31I'm doing all right.
00:58:31I got projects.
00:58:32Come on!
00:58:33You're built for billion-dollar franchises,
00:58:35Hollywood blockbusters,
00:58:37the one that gets made in L.A.,
00:58:38not London.
00:58:39That's where you belong.
00:58:41To be honest,
00:58:42I already did all I.
00:58:43It didn't really end well.
00:58:45Let me guess.
00:58:46My girl?
00:58:47If by a girl,
00:58:48he means Hollywood royalty,
00:58:50Sabrina Donovan.
00:58:52You don't walk away
00:58:53from a gift like yours
00:58:54over some heartbreak.
00:58:55You can become a household name,
00:58:57and I can get you there.
00:58:59You're giving me a lot
00:59:00to think about.
00:59:00Three-picture deal.
00:59:02$200 million budget each,
00:59:03creative control
00:59:04and final cut approval.
00:59:06I don't know what to say.
00:59:07Just say yes.
00:59:08You have my number.
00:59:09Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:11Just remember, Daniel,
00:59:13you can't run away from the past.
00:59:14You have to face it
00:59:15and tell the fuck off.
00:59:28Hey, it's been a while.
00:59:30Can we talk?
00:59:32Daniel, can you give us a hint
00:59:34about your first movie
00:59:35with Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:36Of course.
00:59:37It's about a man
00:59:38who gets fucked over
00:59:39by America's sweetheart
00:59:40and comes out on top.
00:59:42Is this a personal story?
00:59:44Will we get a hint
00:59:45at who the mystery woman is?
00:59:48Oh...
00:59:50She knows who she is.
00:59:52I'll leave it at that.
00:59:56You arrogant little shit.
00:59:58I told you
00:59:59if you ever set foot
01:00:00in this fucking country,
01:00:01I would unleash
01:00:02a world of hell.
01:00:07It's Celeste Donovan.
01:00:09I need a favor.
01:00:10I need you to track down
01:00:11Daniel Johnson
01:00:12and find out where he'll be
01:00:13around 8 o'clock tonight.
01:00:16It's time for a little reunion
01:00:18with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:00:20Mom?
01:00:21What are you doing?
01:00:25Did you just break my TV?
01:00:28Can you give us a name
01:00:29for your upcoming film?
01:00:31You know I'm not supposed
01:00:32to do that.
01:00:33You've been so kind, though.
01:00:34It's called
01:00:35You Drive Me Crazy.
01:00:39He's back.
01:00:41Why didn't you tell me?
01:00:43Honey,
01:00:44I didn't want you
01:00:45spiraling again.
01:00:46I'm not a fragile
01:00:47little girl anymore.
01:00:49I need to get on that movie.
01:00:50Absolutely not.
01:00:52You're not working
01:00:53for your ex-husband.
01:00:54If you don't get me
01:00:55an audition,
01:00:55then I will get
01:00:56a manager who will.
01:00:57Honey,
01:00:58I'm just looking out for you.
01:00:59He still loves me.
01:01:02He has to.
01:01:04I just need to talk to him.
01:01:07Let him go.
01:01:10Mom!
01:01:12Honey,
01:01:12I...
01:01:14You know
01:01:15I just want
01:01:16what's best for you,
01:01:17right?
01:01:17I just don't want
01:01:18to see my little girl
01:01:19hurt again.
01:01:22I love you.
01:01:24I love you, too.
01:01:27There you go.
01:01:30This is, um...
01:01:31It's another movie deal.
01:01:33I'll tell you
01:01:34about it after.
01:01:35Okay.
01:01:49Did you get his location?
01:01:51The Oaks.
01:01:538 p.m.
01:01:55After I'm done with him,
01:01:56Daniel Johnson
01:01:57won't just be
01:01:58blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:01:59He'll be erased
01:02:00from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:01Ever.
01:02:10She's not protecting me.
01:02:12She's protecting her business.
01:02:14And I'm just a pawn.
01:02:16But if she wants a scandal,
01:02:18she'll get one.
01:02:20It's so nice
01:02:21having you back.
01:02:23And I don't just mean
01:02:24from the UK.
01:02:25Yeah, it's been a rough
01:02:26couple years, hasn't it?
01:02:27Couple?
01:02:29Daniel, it was
01:02:29ten years of you
01:02:30slaving away
01:02:31for those people.
01:02:32If you can even
01:02:33call them that.
01:02:34But you're healthy now.
01:02:35And I'm at the top
01:02:36of my career.
01:02:37I mean, yeah,
01:02:38there was a time
01:02:38that I loved Sabrina,
01:02:40but I really thought
01:02:41I could make it work.
01:02:42The marriage,
01:02:43the kids.
01:02:44I mean,
01:02:45we really tried.
01:02:46I thought I could
01:02:46make a go for it,
01:02:47but, um,
01:02:49it's over.
01:02:51It's over.
01:02:52I mean,
01:02:52let her chase
01:02:53whatever fantasy
01:02:54she thinks
01:02:54Preston Eastwood
01:02:55could offer.
01:03:03Oh.
01:03:04You haven't heard?
01:03:07She dumped him.
01:03:08It was all over
01:03:09People magazine.
01:03:10She ended it
01:03:10when his star faded.
01:03:13Oh, my God.
01:03:14What?
01:03:20Daniel!
01:03:23Stop!
01:03:31Sabrina,
01:03:32what are you doing here?
01:03:33I'm here to help you.
01:03:35Sabrina,
01:03:37you're making a scene.
01:03:38Let's go home.
01:03:39Sabrina?
01:03:40How could you?
01:03:41I just came to ask
01:03:42Daniel if he'd let you
01:03:43audition,
01:03:44but he said no.
01:03:45I begged and pleaded.
01:03:47Stop lying.
01:03:48I saw you bribe
01:03:49the waiter
01:03:50to drug Daniel's drink.
01:03:52And I'll bet
01:03:53you called the paparazzi,
01:03:54too,
01:03:54to catch him
01:03:55drugged out of his mind
01:03:56and ruin him.
01:03:58My God.
01:03:59You're disgusting.
01:04:00I'm a manager,
01:04:01Daniel.
01:04:02Not anymore.
01:04:03Why did you become
01:04:04such a conniving,
01:04:06scheming snake?
01:04:07I don't even know
01:04:08who you are anymore.
01:04:11I'm your mother.
01:04:13I only want
01:04:14what's best for you.
01:04:16What's best for me?
01:04:19You've been controlling
01:04:20my life ever since you knew
01:04:21you could profit from it.
01:04:24That all ends today.
01:04:28You're fired.
01:04:30Fired.
01:04:32No.
01:04:35No.
01:04:39No.
01:04:41You can't do this to me.
01:04:43Please.
01:04:43Please, sweetie.
01:04:44I have dedicated
01:04:45my life to you.
01:04:46You dedicated your life
01:04:47to money
01:04:48and to fame.
01:04:51I was just who
01:04:52you used to get to it.
01:04:53You think you can survive
01:04:54on sheer talent?
01:04:56There's a thousand girls
01:04:57more talented than you
01:04:58waiting for their shot.
01:04:59I made you.
01:05:01You'd be nothing
01:05:02without me.
01:05:05I think she'll do
01:05:06just fine.
01:05:13We're done here, Mom.
01:05:15If you want any chance
01:05:17to be in Jackson's life
01:05:18or in mine,
01:05:20you'll leave now.
01:05:22Without another word.
01:05:34I have something to say.
01:05:38I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:05:40I'm sorry I took you
01:05:42for granted
01:05:42all of those years.
01:05:44I'm sorry I let my mom
01:05:46manipulate and use you.
01:05:48I'm sorry I brought
01:05:50Preston into our home
01:05:52and poisoned our son
01:05:54towards you.
01:05:57Apologize to your father.
01:05:59Do I have to?
01:06:01Who raised you?
01:06:04Cared for you?
01:06:06Packed your lunches
01:06:07when I was on set?
01:06:09Laid with you
01:06:10when you had nightmares
01:06:11and coddled you
01:06:12when you were sick?
01:06:13He did.
01:06:15He loved you.
01:06:16But you treated him
01:06:17like he was nothing.
01:06:18I was wrong.
01:06:20Jackson,
01:06:21he gave us
01:06:22ten years of his life
01:06:23and we abused it.
01:06:25And now there is
01:06:26nothing we can do
01:06:27to take that back.
01:06:29I'm sorry, Dad.
01:06:33It's going to be okay, son.
01:06:35I still love you.
01:06:37Okay.
01:06:38Come on, Jackson.
01:06:39Let's go.
01:06:46I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:49For everything.
01:06:51Okay.
01:06:59I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:01You're thinking
01:07:02of going back to them.
01:07:03No.
01:07:05I just didn't know
01:07:06it'd be this hard.
01:07:08They hurt you, Daniel.
01:07:10They tore you to pieces
01:07:12and then just expected
01:07:14you to come running back.
01:07:17People can change,
01:07:20but that doesn't change
01:07:21the past.
01:07:25And the Oscar goes to
01:07:27Daniel Johnson
01:07:28for his original screenplay,
01:07:30Loving Her.
01:07:33Daniel!
01:07:34Daniel!
01:07:35Come here, Daniel!
01:07:36Daniel, is it true
01:07:37that the script
01:07:38that won you Oscars
01:07:39for both writing
01:07:39and directing
01:07:40sat on a shelf
01:07:41for ten years?
01:07:42Yes.
01:07:43I'll admit,
01:07:43I got a little sidelined,
01:07:45but I think
01:07:46I found my way back.
01:07:48But, okay,
01:07:49I'll tell you this.
01:07:52I don't think
01:07:53you can truly
01:07:53love someone else
01:07:55until
01:07:57you love yourself.
01:08:01Way to go, Jan!

01:08:21for considering me
01:08:22for this part.
01:08:24We'll keep in touch.

01:09:13Oh, it's interesting.
01:09:14Emily.
01:09:15Amazing, as always.
01:09:17You flew in all the way
01:09:19from London for this?
01:09:20Please.
01:09:21I wasn't gonna miss a shot
01:09:23who auditioned for
01:09:23the great Daniel Johnson.
01:09:26How's LA treating you?
01:09:28Oh, my God.
01:09:29Less tea,
01:09:30but way more traffic.
01:09:32But I am...
01:09:34I'm glad to be back.
01:09:35Well, it's no English
01:09:36countryside.
01:09:37Yeah.
01:09:38But it suits you.
01:09:41You definitely belong here.
01:09:45I do miss you, though.
01:09:47It was fun.
01:09:48Playing the part.
01:09:50British starlet.
01:09:51American director.
01:09:53I kept waiting for us
01:09:55to become something real.
01:09:57I kept waiting for us
01:09:59to become something real.
01:10:00I'm sorry, Emily.
01:10:03It just cost me,
01:10:04and we'll call it even.
01:10:06You...
01:10:07You were amazing,
01:10:08as always.
01:10:09It's just...
01:10:11It's just not quite
01:10:12what I'm looking for.
01:10:15I never was, was I?
01:10:18Anyways...
01:10:19Got a few more auditions
01:10:20while I'm in town.
01:10:22Maybe I'll see you around.
01:10:24Yeah.
01:10:36Give me a coffee,
01:10:37and you know what?
01:10:38Go get one for yourself, too.
01:10:41And be generous
01:10:42with the sugar.
01:10:48Oh, my God.
01:10:49What am I going to do?
01:10:56That was quick.
01:10:58Oh, God.
01:11:07What are you doing here?
01:11:10I came to audition.
01:11:14Did you bring any representation?

01:11:37Are you okay?
01:11:39Yeah.
01:11:40It's an old wound that, um...
01:11:42never really healed.
