00:00:00He used to worship.
00:00:02And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:00:10That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:00:13Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:00:18Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on the shelf for 10 years?
00:00:24Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I'm on my way back.
00:00:30Um, I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:00:37Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:00:42You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:00:48Our contract expired. I'm only telling you because you're her manager.
00:00:52If you try and divorce my daughter, you will end up with nothing. The mansion, the money, even your own son will belong to her.
00:01:00I'll always love my son.
00:01:04But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business, his grandmother.
00:01:08You used to worship, Sabrina. What happened?
00:01:11That was a long time ago.
00:01:13America's sweetheart, Sabrina Donovan, attempts suicide.
00:01:17All for her co-star and Hollywood's golden boy, Preston Eastwood.
00:01:20When her career's hanging by a thread, I need to get those paparazzi off her back.
00:01:26You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:01:29She needs that now.
00:01:32Stay. Marry her.
00:01:34Love her.
00:01:35So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:01:38I might not have been Sabrina's first love, but I would be her last.
00:01:42And I'd cherish her like no other man would.
00:01:46If Preston Eastwood's really back, then maybe the last ten years meant more to me than they ever did to her.
00:01:52This was the last one.
00:01:53Mom, Daniel.
00:01:59What's going on?
00:02:03What's going on?
00:02:05Honey!
00:02:07I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:02:11If the paparazzi catch him next to you, ugh.
00:02:14But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:02:19Think about it, Daniel.
00:02:23Once Sabrina signs the divorce petition, the 30-day waiting period starts, then I will be free.
00:02:31Sabrina, we need to talk.
00:02:33Ugh, can it wait? I'm seriously so spent.
00:02:37I had the photo shoot and fitting and cocktails with girls.
00:02:41I saw it. Preston was there.
00:02:44I mean, he got us our first movie deal right out of college. I mean, we owe him.
00:02:49Yeah, and then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:02:53I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:02:55Lunch is on the stove.
00:02:57But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:00No! I want to eat now!
00:03:02You always know the spot.
00:03:15He doesn't listen.
00:03:16Daniel, please.
00:03:18You had a migraine all day from the flashing bulbs that that got off of Vanity Fair shoot.
00:03:25I got something I need to tell you.
00:03:27I'll make it quick.
00:03:28This isn't easy, but I...
00:03:30Ew! What is this?
00:03:32It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:03:34I don't want healthy food. I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:36Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets!
00:03:39You can't have that every day. It's not healthy for you.
00:03:42But I want that!
00:03:44Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:03:48You suck!
00:03:48I want chicken nuggets!
00:03:51Give me chicken nuggets!
00:03:59I waited.
00:04:01I gave it everything I had.
00:04:04But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:06And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:04:12Enough.
00:04:13Just enough.
00:04:14Enough.
00:04:14Enough.
00:04:14Enough.
00:04:18I want a divorce.
00:04:21I want a divorce.
00:04:28Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:04:31Huh?
00:04:32I want a...
00:04:36I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:38Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:39Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:04:44Now go upstairs, get cleaned up. We'll get you some real food.
00:04:48Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family. I mean, it's not that hard.
00:04:58What is this? Another contract? How big is the role? Who's directing?
00:05:06It's not a...
00:05:07Whatever, my mom will look over it anyways.
00:05:09Hard to believe I can't even get her to care about this.
00:05:12Honestly, I am really at my capacity. I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:05:20Pull my weight?
00:05:22Yeah, you get it.
00:05:25Mwah! Love you.
00:05:27I devoted myself to this family for ten long years. If that wasn't enough, then this is the only option.
00:05:34Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:05:37The movie's greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct. We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:05:49I can't. My wife needs me here in L.A.
00:05:52After all I've sacrificed.
00:05:54My scripts, my career, my future, all pushed aside.
00:05:59At least there is one good thing to come from this. I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:07Hey, Mom. How you doing?
00:06:08Oh, good, dear. I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:06:14Do you need more?
00:06:15No, no, no, no. You've already done so much.
00:06:19I'm just trying to help.
00:06:20I know, but I never wanted my cancer to be your battle.
00:06:24Mickey, I can't thank you enough for everything that you've done, but it's time you lived your life.
00:06:33I am, Mom. And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:06:42You look wonderful, dear.
00:06:44You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:06:46Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:06:48I gotta go. Love you.
00:06:50What is it, Mom?
00:06:54Someone very special decided to pay us a visit.
00:06:57Our favorite leading man.
00:06:59Come on.
00:07:06Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart
00:07:09and is stealing it back again.
00:07:14Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:07:20All right, cut.
00:07:25That's a wrap, everyone.
00:07:28We got our start on the set of Breaking the Ice.
00:07:31Sabrina was the rising star.
00:07:34I was just the director's assistant.
00:07:38Our future's ahead of us.
00:07:41If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:07:45We got our first star.
00:08:11What?
00:08:11it destroyed me

00:12:01Daniel that was always your problem you're so caught up on the morals

00:16:09he's
00:16:10I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:13Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:19Daniel!
00:16:21You know, it's probably for the best.
00:16:24From the sound of it, your own son doesn't even want to be around you.
00:16:28Daniel, he's here.
00:16:29Did he see us?
00:16:30Is he looking over here?
00:16:32Fuck, that's not good.
00:16:33I was just doing that for Melissa.
00:16:34It didn't mean for him to see us.
00:16:36Actually, it was perfect timing.
00:16:38Once that loser's out of the picture, Sabrina and her money are all mine.
00:16:42Who cares about him, Mommy?
00:16:44Now he can be with Mr. Preston.
00:16:45Jackson, enough.
00:16:48What do I do?
00:16:50Well, that's it then.
00:16:52Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:16:54You need to leverage your relationship with Preston, with the tabloids.
00:16:57I'm sure you'll spend the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:01You're really good at that.
00:17:02Oh, I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:05A one-way ticket, so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:12I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:17I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:20Daniel loves me.
00:17:21He has to understand.
00:17:23This is Hollywood.
00:17:24It's just part of the job.
00:17:27Daniel, I can explain.
00:17:29Daniel, what is this?
00:17:37I can't let her create a public scene.
00:17:40All it takes is one article to get her canceled.
00:17:43Are you going somewhere?
00:17:45Honey, oh, what a coincidence.
00:17:48We were just meeting here to discuss a vacation.
00:17:51Isn't that right, Daniel?
00:17:53A vacation?
00:17:54Final.
00:17:55You're paying attention.
00:17:55Yeah, I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:00Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:02What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:04Without me cooking and cleaning?
00:18:05That's not what I meant.
00:18:06Whoa, looks like there's a little bit of drama going on over here.
00:18:10That's fine.
00:18:11Daniel's just decided to abandon us for a bit, just like any good husband would.
00:18:15Oh, look how you see.
00:18:17Is it me?
00:18:19Is my presence hurting your ego?
00:18:20I wouldn't put jealousy past him.
00:18:23I always knew you were the self-loathing type.
00:18:24But you know what?
00:18:26Maybe I should go.
00:18:27I don't want to get between the two of you.
00:18:28No, please stay.
00:18:30I want you to live with us forever and ever.
00:18:33No, you know what?
00:18:34I'll go.
00:18:36And clearly she wants you.
00:18:38I'm willing to dance this soon.
00:18:39Daniel, wait.
00:18:42I won't ever let you go.
00:18:44He won't leave.
00:18:45He promised.
00:18:46It doesn't have to be like this.
00:18:48We could pull up a chair and we can...
00:18:51I'm going to go back.
00:18:52Daniel!
00:18:56Daniel!
00:19:00I bet I'm here.
00:19:02This is...
00:19:03Yeah.
00:19:04Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:19:06Oh!
00:19:08Oh, good.
00:19:09You're up.
00:19:10Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:15It's fun.
00:19:16Don't look at me like that.
00:19:19I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:22Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:26How lucky for him.
00:19:28He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:31Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:34Listen, man, I...
00:19:36I've had every opportunity to sleep with her, and it might happen.
00:19:41You can trust me.
00:19:43Preston, I think you're...
00:19:45Mm-hmm.
00:19:46I need to go right now.
00:19:47All right.
00:19:49Oh, my...
00:19:50Daniel, seriously, listen, man.
00:19:53I...
00:19:53I...
00:19:53When you're gone, I promise I will take the best care of your son and your wife.
00:19:59I'm gonna be the best man of the house.
00:20:03Just ignore him.
00:20:03He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:05No, I actually think he's the only one speaking exactly what's on his mind.
00:20:09Daniel, you don't have to be so jealous.
00:20:11Jealous?
00:20:13My God, you still don't get it, do you?
00:20:17Whatever, I'm going to bed.
00:20:21Yeah.
00:20:23I don't think I should be alone.
00:20:28That's all I need to slip into her bed and drive the final wedge between her and the house husband.
00:20:34Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I could look after him?
00:20:40God.
00:20:41God, you're unbelievable.
00:20:46Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:20:51No, it's not like that.
00:20:52I...
00:20:53What?
00:20:56You know what?
00:20:56Fine.
00:20:59You two look great together.
00:21:01Daniel, I...
00:21:02And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
00:21:18Um...
00:21:18I don't know where our kettle or extra towels are.
00:21:30Without me, you can't even find a kettle or a towel.
00:21:35I was never the homemaker.
00:21:36I can't think of any time she was there to comfort me.
00:21:57If you're sick, can you go in the other room?
00:22:04I have a press junkie tomorrow that I seriously can't miss.
00:22:07Look at her now.
00:22:20Playing house for another man.
00:22:23If only she worked this hard at being a wife when it actually mattered.
00:22:27There he is.
00:22:46I wish I could sleep until 8 a.m.
00:22:48Man, no, I had to wake up and have a 5 a.m. workout.
00:22:52Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:22:56We've got some...
00:22:58Yeah.
00:22:59What do you mean...
00:23:00Oh, oh.
00:23:01Yeah, there you go.
00:23:01I'd like to do some of this shit, but...
00:23:04I doubt you'd like it.
00:23:05Yeah, this shit's straight up protein.
00:23:07Bulking up for a new Marvel movie!
00:23:13Hey, uh...
00:23:14You're not pissed off that your wife had to take care of me last night, right?
00:23:18No.
00:23:19A grown man that needs a babysitter?
00:23:22Why would I be threatened by that?
00:23:24It's finally time to make this hack disappear.
00:23:41Phone, Jackson.
00:23:43Mr. Eastwood!
00:23:44I want to play with the fish, but my stupid dad won't let me!
00:23:48And it's unfair!
00:23:49That's a shame, huh?
00:23:50You know what?
00:23:51Let me grab it for you, little man.
00:23:52Here we go.
00:23:54Ooh.
00:23:55No!
00:23:57Not to play with them.
00:23:59You never let me do anything!
00:24:02Come on, it's just a fish tank, Daniel.
00:24:05You guys can afford an aquarium.
00:24:07It's not about the money.
00:24:09It's about him learning how to respect living things.
00:24:12Unfortunately, he's surrounded by...
00:24:14bad examples.
00:24:16Yeah?
00:24:16What's that supposed to mean?
00:24:19You're so annoying!
00:24:21Don't push.
00:24:23I said don't push.
00:24:29Go get a book or something.
00:24:30Why don't you get your hands off him?
00:24:32He's a Donovan, not some pathetic man-serving like you.
00:24:35God, what the hell is he just talking?
00:24:37Call it a lesson.
00:24:41I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:43He's not your kid.
00:24:45I wish I was.
00:24:46I hope mom marries him so you can be gone forever.
00:24:49I hate seeing your stupid face!
00:24:52Ouch!
00:24:52I mean, you just heard your son.
00:24:55So why don't you make this little vacay yours perfect?
00:24:57Maybe it will be.
00:24:59But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:02You?
00:25:04Man of the house?
00:25:05Please.
00:25:06You're a pussy in an apron.
00:25:07I'd be embarrassed to call you a maiden, much less a dad or a husband.
00:25:10And you're washed a pack.
00:25:13Still riding on all your old headlines.
00:25:15How were your latest box office numbers, huh?
00:25:17I heard your agents begging for scraps.
00:25:19I'm a fucking star!
00:25:21A star?
00:25:22A star that needs his ex to bring him back into the spotlight.
00:25:26Jackson, come on.
00:25:27I don't want you hanging around this clown anymore.
00:25:28No, I'm not going.
00:25:30Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:32Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:25:35You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:02What was that?
00:26:02What was that?
00:26:05What was that, Mom?
00:26:13Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:26:16You're so scared.
00:26:17That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:19What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:20I just wanted to hang out with your ex.
00:26:22I came in looking for a fight.
00:26:23What?
00:26:24I didn't.
00:26:25What the hell is wrong with you?
00:26:26You're acting like a jealous child.
00:26:29I thought you were bigger than this petty shit.
00:26:31He threw a fish tank at me.
00:26:32It's just a fucking fish tank.
00:26:34Bro, I'm up.
00:26:35Remember we're in the public eye?
00:26:37What if your little outburst was caught by the press?
00:26:39What?
00:26:40Everyone knows your precious press that attacked me?
00:26:44Maybe I should go.
00:26:45I'm sorry.
00:26:45No.
00:26:46Oh, my God.
00:26:49He's lying.
00:26:51You're a monster.
00:26:53And in front of your son?
00:26:54You have to be kidding.
00:26:56We have to get you to the hospital.
00:26:59We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:01Come on.
00:27:02Clean this up.
00:27:03Soon, you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:09Oh, she's mine now, Luzu.
00:27:12Hello, Tegman 1.
00:27:22What's your emergency?
00:27:24I'm waiting now.
00:27:25I think I hit an hour.
00:27:26I need an ambulance now.
00:27:28Now.
00:27:29You did lose a lot of blood, so we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump
00:27:43you with liquid.
00:27:44To be honest, that's, I could use a break from home.
00:27:48Trouble with the missus?
00:27:51Uh, yeah.
00:27:54Pretty obvious.
00:27:55Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:27:58I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here with Preston Eastwood.
00:28:05True love story, holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:09I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:28:12You said, um, a couple?
00:28:15I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs, and it's official.
00:28:20She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:24She was so sweet.
00:28:30Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:33No, it's...
00:28:35It's my wound.
00:28:37I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:41Daniel!
00:28:43Sweet and caring.
00:28:45So Preston's found the wife I always wanted.
00:28:48He only had to break her heart to get it, and left me to pick up the pieces.
00:28:53Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:06You once liked my short film.
00:29:08I have a strip I've been sitting on.
00:29:09It needs the right producer.
00:29:20I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:22Where have you been?
00:29:25I kept calling.
00:29:27I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:31Huh?
00:29:35What?
00:29:36I've been busy.
00:29:37I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:38Uh, seriously?
00:29:40Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:43I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:47Yeah.
00:29:48That's what you want to call it?
00:29:51I...
00:29:51I just...
00:29:52I'm sorry.
00:29:54I...
00:29:55Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:29:59It is what it is.
00:30:05But I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:08You even just hint at a relationship, and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:13And I think you should go for it.
00:30:15I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:18But I just...
00:30:19I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:25Seriously.
00:30:26I...
00:30:26I care about you.
00:30:29I'm not mad.
00:30:34I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:36I know when you're angry.
00:30:38Really?
00:30:38I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:40I pay attention?
00:30:43Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:45She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:48That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:50A headline.
00:30:52A performance.
00:30:54Sabrina.
00:30:59Sabrina, I'm good.
00:30:59You know what?
00:31:01I hate fighting.
00:31:02So let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:04I was thinking we could revisit your script.
00:31:09I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:14You tell me you finally read it?
00:31:16Well, yeah.
00:31:18The first ten pages.
00:31:19But they're good.
00:31:21The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:24I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:26Me and you.
00:31:27The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:29I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:35A long time ago.
00:31:37Well, how about you make us some lattes and for the next hour we can just pour ourselves
00:31:42into the script.
00:31:44Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:47There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:50I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:53Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:55I don't know what you do, but I asked a chef to make a latte while you were gone, and it
00:32:16was awful.
00:32:19Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you.
00:32:21I'll be sure to tell him how you like it.
00:32:22That's not what I meant.
00:32:25I like it when you make it.
00:32:28I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:33I knew it.
00:32:35You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:37I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:42It's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:46Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:50It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:51No, Daniel.
00:32:53No, that's not what I meant.
00:32:55Look what you made me do.
00:33:02Just leave it.
00:33:06I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:10And what?
00:33:11It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:13I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:15And look what I get for it.
00:33:17You know what?
00:33:18Forget it.
00:33:19I heard from here.
00:33:20Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:22What?
00:33:38Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:40Yeah.
00:33:41Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:42Not quite.
00:33:43That was the divorce contract.
00:33:44But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:49This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:51Remember that.
00:33:52I'll text you the address.
00:33:53Where's Mimi?
00:33:53I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:10Oh, please.
00:34:11She's always been so secretive.
00:34:13I mean, this is her movie premiere.
00:34:14And where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:19I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:25Oh, wow.
00:34:26If we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:28Come here.
00:34:29Oh.
00:34:32Jackson!
00:34:34We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:36Do you know where she is?
00:34:38Or who she's with?
00:34:39She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:41He's been staying with us.
00:34:43Really?
00:34:44Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:48Oh, I hope so.
00:34:49I really hope so.
00:34:50He's way cooler than my old-born real dad.
00:34:54Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:58Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:07What are you doing here?
00:35:08You never come to these things.
00:35:10Well, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:12Get lost!
00:35:15You embarrass us!
00:35:16Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:18I'm your father.
00:35:19I wish you never were my dad!
00:35:24Is there a problem?
00:35:25Oh, my God.
00:35:31That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:33How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:37If that was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:39I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:41You're a pathetic loser!
00:35:43Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:44You should probably listen to your kid and head out, because you're starting to make a scene.
00:35:50I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:51That's not what I see.
00:35:53You showed up uninvited.
00:35:55Then street rags abused Sabrina's kid and pit a fight with an A-lister.
00:36:01That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:05It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:08And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:12This is all a stunt, was it?
00:36:15You are revolting.
00:36:16No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:19Hey.
00:36:19How are you watching now?
00:36:23Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:26Yeah.
00:36:27Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:29Oh, yeah?
00:36:30What lesson's that, Preston?
00:36:31You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:36Hmm.
00:36:38Oh!
00:36:49What the hell?
00:36:59What happened?
00:37:01Oh, my God!
00:37:03Daniel!
00:37:04What the hell happened?
00:37:06Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:07Are you okay?
00:37:09Look at her go.
00:37:10Hollywood's finest.
00:37:12Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:15It's Daniel.
00:37:16He's a monster.
00:37:17He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:21Mommy!
00:37:22Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:24Daniel.
00:37:25No, that's not true.
00:37:27If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:32Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:36Daniel.
00:37:37Is that true?
00:37:41Sabrina.
00:37:43Oh!
00:37:45Yeah, I think you got me in the ribs.
00:37:47I think one of them is broken.
00:37:49Sabrina.
00:37:50Honey.
00:37:51We need to help Preston.
00:37:55But Daniel.
00:37:59Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:38:02Mommy, please, we can't leave him.
00:38:16I...
00:38:17I have...
00:38:18I have to help Preston.
00:38:20Come on, Jackson.
00:38:41Daniel!
00:38:42I got you.
00:38:44Don't let me go!
00:38:46She's made her choice.
00:38:48There's no going back.
00:38:49We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to
00:38:52after all these years of me slaving for her.
00:39:02Well, that went even better than I planned.
00:39:06Now we can make a clean break.
00:39:09I wasn't waiting for your permission.
00:39:11There's an Uber waiting for you outside to take you to the airport.
00:39:16Get out of Hollywood.
00:39:18In fact, get out of the country.
00:39:21If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:39:25I will make your life a living hell.
00:39:42Don't worry about it. Just try.
00:39:45I used to ache for her approval.
00:40:00Now I just want to breathe without her shadow.
00:40:02Seriously?
00:40:06So long.
00:40:07I know.
00:40:08What is it?
00:40:08Damn.
00:40:10I'm going to call the doctor.
00:40:11Hey.
00:40:14What are you doing?
00:40:15I thought you were hurt.
00:40:17I think I'll pull through.
00:40:18Listen, what are you doing?
00:40:26I don't know.
00:40:27I've always wanted to.
00:40:29Come on.
00:40:30I know you want this.
00:40:31I see the way you look at me.
00:40:33Now that Daniel's gone,
00:40:34we have the house to ourself.
00:40:36I can finally have you in this bedroom.
00:40:39What am I doing?
00:40:51Daniel is still injured.
00:40:53He should be home.
00:40:57Sabrina?
00:40:57Listen, get off.
00:41:10What?
00:41:11Babe, we can finally come here.
00:41:13I said get off.
00:41:15What?
00:41:15I need to go take care of Daniel.
00:41:17No, forget about him.
00:41:19Look.
00:41:20I love Jackson,
00:41:22and I'm ready to be the man
00:41:23that you've always wanted.
00:41:24I'm ready to be a dad
00:41:26to that little boy.
00:41:28I mean, come on.
00:41:29Sabrina, your son,
00:41:30your mother,
00:41:32even Daniel is pushing us together.
00:41:35Look.
00:41:36He's already moved on.
00:41:41No.
00:41:42What have I done?
00:41:44Where is he?
00:41:45What about me?
00:41:46You had your chance
00:41:47ten years ago.
00:41:49I need to go take care
00:41:51of my husband.
00:41:58Hello?
00:41:59Excuse me.
00:42:01Excuse me.
00:42:02Hi.
00:42:02Have you seen my husband?
00:42:04Please.
00:42:05He was someone bleeding out.
00:42:07I saw him stumble outside
00:42:08holding his head
00:42:09after he spoke
00:42:10to some older woman.
00:42:11He didn't come back in, though.
00:42:17Content, where are you?
00:42:18I'm sorry,
00:42:20but the number
00:42:20you are trying to reach
00:42:21is no longer in service.
00:42:23Please try again later.
00:42:25What have I done?
00:42:26What have I done?
00:42:26Come on, Daniel.
00:42:38Answer me.
00:42:45He's not gone.
00:42:47I know Daniel
00:42:48wouldn't leave me.
00:42:49He loves me too much
00:42:59to abandon me
00:43:00when I need him the most.
00:43:01No.
00:43:02No.
00:43:05It's not possible.
00:43:08He will be back.
00:43:11No.
00:43:11Wait, it's all the assets.
00:43:24Climb zero,
00:43:25Castillo, Jackson.
00:43:27The waves,
00:43:27all spousal support.
00:43:30No.
00:43:31No, he can't leave me.
00:43:33He can't do this to me.
00:43:34I won't sign off on it.
00:43:36Come on.
00:43:37All this time,
00:43:48who's going to leave me?
00:43:51It can't be.
00:44:09It's not us.
00:44:10Honestly,
00:44:10it doesn't matter.
00:44:11My mom will look it over anyways.
00:44:13He loves me.
00:44:16He loves Jackson.
00:44:17Jackson,
00:44:17he wouldn't just leave us.
00:44:20We're his family.
00:44:21After all these years,
00:44:23everything we've been through.
00:44:25I got you.
00:44:49Don't let me go.
00:44:51Was I ever really paying attention?
00:44:53No, it's mom.
00:45:00Is everything okay?
00:45:01You sound panicked.
00:45:02Mom.
00:45:04Mom.
00:45:06Daniel.
00:45:07He just left us.
00:45:10Do you know where he is?
00:45:13We have to find him.
00:45:14We can check the hospital or the...
00:45:16Oh, honey.
00:45:18It's over.
00:45:19Daniel's not coming back.
00:45:22You knew?
00:45:22I'll come over in the morning
00:45:24and explain everything.
00:45:33I'm hungry.
00:45:36Dad!
00:45:37Breakfast should be ready by now.
00:45:40Taxi?
00:45:43I have something to tell you.
00:45:44Your dad.
00:45:50Your dad.
00:45:52He's left us.
00:45:54I'm sorry, but he's not coming back.
00:45:56Yay!
00:45:57He's gone!
00:45:57He's gone!
00:45:59Why would you say that?
00:46:01He was so embarrassing.
00:46:03Even Mr. Eastwood...
00:46:04Mr. Eastwood?
00:46:05What did Preston say?
00:46:07He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:46:10should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:46:12and raising a young man.
00:46:14He was so lame and boring.
00:46:17Now he's gone.
00:46:19Mr. Eastwood is way cooler.
00:46:21He can be my new dad.
00:46:23Jackson!
00:46:24You have a dad.
00:46:26And he's cared for you for seven years.
00:46:28Yeah, but I hate him!
00:46:36Hello?
00:46:37Do you have any news about Daniel?
00:46:39Ms. Donovan, it's your accountant.
00:46:41I noticed a few unusual transfers.
00:46:44I'm sorry, I don't have the time.
00:46:45Large sums have been wired
00:46:47to someone named Preston Eastwood.
00:46:49Was that done with your approval?
00:46:51No.
00:46:52But I'm not surprised.
00:46:53Flag his name.
00:46:55I want him frozen and cut off.
00:46:59Jackson, I don't want to ever hear you
00:47:01say Preston's name again.
00:47:03Okay?
00:47:03He's not the man you think he is.
00:47:06Your father, the one who raised you
00:47:07and cared about you, is out there.
00:47:09And we need to find him at all costs.
00:47:13What kind of coward abandons his family?
00:47:16It's despicable.
00:47:18I can't do this anymore.
00:47:21I'll cancel everything.
00:47:22The interviews and the red carpets,
00:47:25I don't want to be seen.
00:47:27I can't pretend.
00:47:30I just want him back.
00:47:32Honey, it's time to let him go.
00:47:35You don't love him anyway.
00:47:38Think about what Preston would do
00:47:40for your career.
00:47:44What?
00:47:45How could you say something like that?
00:47:47Of course I love Daniel.
00:47:50He cares for me.
00:47:52He sees me.
00:47:53He was there for me
00:47:54when Preston dropped me
00:47:55like I was nothing.
00:47:57But Daniel is a pathetic nobody.
00:48:01Daniel's my husband.
00:48:03And the father of my son.
00:48:04Yeah, some husband.
00:48:06Abandoning you without a moment's notice.
00:48:08Wanting nothing to do with this child
00:48:09just because the contract ended.
00:48:11Contract?
00:48:13What contract?
00:48:14What are you talking about?
00:48:21Forget it.
00:48:22Forget it.
00:48:23Just pretend I didn't say anything.
00:48:25When I caught you and Daniel
00:48:26at the restaurant the other day,
00:48:28you said that he was going on a trip.
00:48:30Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:33Please.
00:48:33I just want the truth.
00:48:36Mom.
00:48:37Fine.
00:48:39I will tell you the truth.
00:48:41But promise me you won't get mad.
00:48:43I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina.
00:48:49But no, it was all for your own good.
00:48:55When Preston left you,
00:48:57you were distraught.
00:48:58I had to save you.
00:49:01She's lost without you, Daniel.
00:49:04You've always been there for her.
00:49:06From film school to now.
00:49:08I've seen it.
00:49:10She needs you.
00:49:11Stay.
00:49:12Marry her.
00:49:13Love her.
00:49:15So that she's never alone again.
00:49:23It was all just some sort of obligation?
00:49:27How could you do this to me?
00:49:29I wanted to protect you.
00:49:31You wanted to control me.
00:49:33All because you needed me for my career,
00:49:35my money.
00:49:36Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:38You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop.
00:49:46Daniel did what he was meant to do.
00:49:48He kept you together.
00:49:50Where?
00:49:51Where did he go?
00:49:53I know he told you where he went.
00:49:55Where is he?
00:49:56You can do better than him.
00:49:58You are Sabrina Donovan,
00:50:01Hollywood starlet.
00:50:02Believe me, it's for the best.
00:50:04No, he can't be gone.
00:50:06He can't.
00:50:07Yes, he is gone.
00:50:09And he is gone forever.
00:50:11He can't be.
00:50:12He can't be gone.
00:50:14He can't.
00:50:14He can't.
00:50:14I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere
00:50:37of how the team of Silver Fox
00:50:39has already generated a considerable buzz
00:50:41for its new writer's director.
00:50:42Who knows which?
00:50:46There he is now.
00:50:47Mr. Daniel Johnson.
00:50:51Daniel, your film received the palm door
00:50:53at the Cannes Film Festival.
00:50:55What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:58Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own shteed.
00:51:01Nobody told me how.
00:51:03Oh, man.
00:51:04How comfortable these designer shoes would be.
00:51:06I've heard this talk of a sequel.
00:51:07Uh, yeah, um...
00:51:10God, my career's been a long time in the making
00:51:12and I've been very honest about it, actually.
00:51:15I almost...
00:51:16I almost gave up the dream.
00:51:17But London...
00:51:19London lit the fire under me
00:51:21and I feel like I found my voice
00:51:22and it really is full steam ahead.
00:51:25Speaking of London,
00:51:27since you're an American writer's director,
00:51:29will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:30Get out of the country.
00:51:37If I so much as see your name
00:51:39next to my daughters in a tabloid,
00:51:42I will make your life a living hell.
00:51:47Daniel?
00:51:47Daniel?
00:51:47He's no good at bragging about himself,
00:52:03so I'll do it for him.
00:52:05Daniel is a true auteur
00:52:07and a creative genius
00:52:09and it was a privilege to be his leading lady.
00:52:13That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake,
00:52:15two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress
00:52:17and celebrated alumni
00:52:19of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
00:52:21Well, I've heard that, uh,
00:52:22your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:52:25We'll never tell.
00:52:29Oh, my God, thanks for saving me.
00:52:32She was practically eye-fucking you.
00:52:34I know.
00:52:35This is so surreal.
00:52:36I mean, I can't believe this is happening to me.
00:52:39I can.
00:52:40The moment I read your script,
00:52:42I knew you were special.
00:52:44Daniel,
00:52:45enjoy this
00:52:47and get used to compliments.
00:52:51There's already Oscar buzz.
00:52:52Fuck.
00:52:53Finish me out.
00:52:54I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:52:58You okay?
00:53:00You always do that when you're nervous.
00:53:02I'm a bit so.
00:53:03I'll have it.
00:53:05Well,
00:53:06the world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker.
00:53:10So, let's just go ahead and start.
00:53:11Daniel,
00:53:11I'll press this good press.
00:53:25Daniel becomes an award-winning director
00:53:33and he's cheating on me
00:53:35with a BAFTA-winning bitch?
00:53:37You can't do this to me!
00:53:40Sabrina.
00:53:41You don't need him.
00:53:43Let him have his 15 minutes of fame.
00:53:45How can he move on to that uptight British bitch?
00:53:48Move on?
00:53:49Please, honey.
00:53:51He is using her.
00:53:53Why do you think he signed the contract in the first place, hmm?
00:53:56He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name.
00:53:58How could you say that?
00:53:59I mean, if anything,
00:54:02being with me hurt his career.
00:54:04He's proving that to the whole world!
00:54:07Don't you see it?
00:54:07Sabrina.
00:54:09Look at what you've got.
00:54:11A celebrated career,
00:54:12a mansion in the hills,
00:54:14an adorable kid.
00:54:16Well, and he's not whining.
00:54:18And don't forget about Preston.
00:54:20Your dream man.
00:54:22You have everything.
00:54:24I don't have him.
00:54:26Mom, I'm hungry.
00:54:27Go have the chef make something.
00:54:30No, I hate what she cooks.
00:54:31And I'm tired of chicken nuggets.
00:54:33Why can't you just hire Daniel back?
00:54:35Don't talk about him like that.
00:54:37He's your dad.
00:54:38No!
00:54:39Preston is my real dad now.
00:54:41Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks
00:54:43and cleaned the toilet.
00:54:44It was fun telling him what to do.
00:54:46When did he get so cruel?
00:54:49You see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover.
00:54:52A doormat.
00:54:54Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:56Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Daniel's a doormat.
00:54:57Enough!
00:54:58You little shit!
00:55:02Enough!
00:55:03Just enough!
00:55:04Sabrina?
00:55:05What's gotten into you?
00:55:07Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man.
00:55:11Whoa.
00:55:11What's going on here?
00:55:13This room feels really tense.
00:55:15Mom just yelled at me for no reason.
00:55:17I was just making fun of Daniel.
00:55:19No!
00:55:19I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father.
00:55:22And if you keep talking like that, I'm going to put you in a timeout.
00:55:26It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat.
00:55:33Hey, babe.
00:55:34Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:55:36Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:38Really?
00:55:39Loser?
00:55:39You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston.
00:55:43And you've been mooching off from me and ordering my staff around like you're their boss.
00:55:48That's really, really low.
00:55:55Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand and keeping it from collapsing in the last year.
00:56:00Come on, we're America's power couple.
00:56:02To be a power couple, you both have to have power.
00:56:06Face it, Preston.
00:56:07You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up.
00:56:10And you're a fucking thief.
00:56:13Yeah, I know you're bankrupt.
00:56:15You've been stealing from me all year long.
00:56:17I could have you arrested, but I haven't.
00:56:20Because you know what?
00:56:21Honestly, I pity you.
00:56:23It's not like that, okay?
00:56:25Look, I was just merging things like couples do.
00:56:28I want to marry you.
00:56:29We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty.
00:56:32What's my birthday?
00:56:33Huh?
00:56:34What kind of flowers do I like?
00:56:36What's my favorite color?
00:56:38My favorite song?
00:56:39Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:41Oh, oh, wait.
00:56:43What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:45You don't give a shit about me.
00:56:47You don't love me.
00:56:49You don't even know me.
00:56:51This isn't a relationship.
00:56:53This is a publicity stunt.
00:56:55And you know what?
00:56:56I'm done.
00:56:57Get out.
00:56:59I don't want to ever see you again.
00:57:01We're over.
00:57:03We're over.
00:57:04No, hey, babe.
00:57:05Come on, please.
00:57:06Please, I love you.
00:57:07Just think about it.
00:57:09Look at the press.
00:57:10What this will look like.
00:57:11If I have to call my security, all of this will get a lot of weird.
00:57:15Get out.
00:57:16Hey, just...
00:57:17Now.
00:57:18Just give me your hand.
00:57:19Come on.
00:57:19No.
00:57:20I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:57:24Nobody sees the real people.
00:57:25I see you, Sabrina.
00:57:27I see all of you.
00:57:30And you're never...
00:57:30I've heard that, uh, your relationship wasn't just professional.
00:57:34We'll never tell.
00:57:38Oh, my God.
00:57:39You're not.
00:57:40He truly loved me.
00:57:42I know.
00:57:43Jeez.
00:57:44This is so surreal.
00:57:45I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me.
00:57:48I can.
00:57:49The moment I read your script, I knew you were special.
00:57:53Daniel.
00:57:55Enjoy this.
00:57:57And get used to compliments.
00:58:00There's already Oscar buzz.
00:58:01Fuck.
00:58:02Finish me.
00:58:03I feel like I'm dreaming.
00:58:07You okay?
00:58:09You're the sexiest man alive.
00:58:10Is that all you care about?
00:58:12I'll have it.
00:58:14Well, the world's about to meet its new favorite filmmaker.
00:58:19Someone's just got a head start.
00:58:20I know.
00:58:33I'll press this good press.
00:58:45You'll have to forgive me, Miss Julie.
00:58:46I'm kind of in shock right now.
00:58:48In film school, we were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced.
00:58:54I mean, you know this. You're a legend.
00:58:57I appreciate it, Daniel.
00:58:59All right, let me cut to the chase.
00:59:00You're a powerhouse-sitting idol in the wrong country.
00:59:03I appreciate the compliment, but I mean, I'm doing all right. I got projects.
00:59:06Come on. You're built for billion-dollar franchises, Hollywood blockbusters,
00:59:10the one that gets made in L.A., not London.
00:59:13That's where you belong.
00:59:15To be honest, I already did L.A.
00:59:17It didn't really end well.
00:59:19Let me guess. A girl?
00:59:21If by a girl, he means Hollywood royalty, Sabrina Donovan.
00:59:26You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak.
00:59:30You can become a household name, and I can get you there.
00:59:34You're giving me a lot to think about.
00:59:35Three-picture deal.
00:59:36$200 million budget each.
00:59:38Creative control and final cut approval.
00:59:40I don't know what to say.
00:59:41Did I just say yes? You have my number.
00:59:44Just don't keep me waiting.
00:59:45Just remember, Daniel, you can't run away from the past.
00:59:49You have to face it and tell the fuck off.
01:00:03Hey, it's been a while.
01:00:06Can we talk?
01:00:08Daniel, can you give us a hint about your first movie with Crazy Maple Studio?
01:00:12Of course. It's about a man who gets fucked over by America's sweetheart and comes out on top.
01:00:18Is this a personal story? Will we get a hint at who the mystery woman is?
01:00:24Oh...
01:00:24She knows who she is.
01:00:27Um, I'll leave it at that.
01:00:29You arrogant little shit.
01:00:35I told you if you ever set foot in this fucking country, I would unleash a world of hell.
01:00:44It's Les Donovan.
01:00:45I need a favor.
01:00:47I need you to track down Daniel Johnson to find out where he'll be around 8 o'clock tonight.
01:00:50Okay? Thank you.
01:00:53It's time for a little reunion with Hollywood's newest hotshot.
01:00:57Mom? What are you doing?
01:01:03Did you just break my TV?
01:01:05Can you give us a name for your upcoming film?
01:01:08You know how I'm supposed to do that?
01:01:10You've been so kind, though.
01:01:11Um, it's called You Drive Me Crazy.
01:01:17He's back.
01:01:19Why didn't you tell me?
01:01:21Honey, I didn't want you spiraling again.
01:01:24I'm not a fragile little girl anymore.
01:01:27I need to get on that movie.
01:01:28Absolutely not.
01:01:30You're not working for your ex-husband.
01:01:32If you don't get me an audition, then I will get a manager who will.
01:01:35Honey, I'm just looking out for you.
01:01:37He still loves me.
01:01:40He has to.
01:01:42I just need to talk to him.
01:01:45Let him go.
01:01:48Mom.
01:01:50Honey, I...
01:01:52You know I just want what's best for you, right?
01:01:56I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again.
01:02:00I love you.
01:02:03I love you, too.
01:02:04This is, um...
01:02:10It's another movie deal.
01:02:12I'll tell you about it after.
01:02:29Did you get his location?
01:02:31The Oaks ADM.
01:02:33After I'm done with him, Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood.
01:02:39He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever.
01:02:50She's not protecting me.
01:02:53She's protecting her business.
01:02:55And I'm just a pawn.
01:02:57But if she wants a scandal, she'll get one.
01:02:59It's so nice having you back.
01:03:03And I don't just mean from the UK.
01:03:05Yeah, it's been a rough couple years, hasn't it?
01:03:07A couple?
01:03:09Daniel, it was ten years of you slaving away for those people.
01:03:13If you can even call them that.
01:03:15You're healthy now.
01:03:16And I'm at the top of my career.
01:03:17I mean, yeah, there was a time that I love Sabrina, but I really thought I could make it work.
01:03:23The marriage, the kids.
01:03:25I mean, we really tried.
01:03:27I thought I could make it go for it, but, um...
01:03:29It's over.
01:03:32It's over.
01:03:33I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy she thinks Preston needs to be gone for.
01:03:45Oh.
01:03:46You and her?
01:03:48She dumped him.
01:03:50It was all over People magazine.
01:03:51She ended it when his star faded.
01:03:53Oh, my God, it was.
01:04:02Daniel!
01:04:06Stop!
01:04:14Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:04:16I'm here to help you.
01:04:18Sabrina.
01:04:19We are making a scene.
01:04:21Let's go home.
01:04:22Sabrina?
01:04:22How could you?
01:04:23I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition, but he said no.
01:04:28I begged and pleaded.
01:04:30Stop lying.
01:04:31I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink.
01:04:35And I'll bet you called the paparazzi, too, to catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him.
01:04:41My God.
01:04:42You're disgusting.
01:04:43I'm a manager, Daniel.
01:04:45Not anymore.
01:04:46Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:04:51I don't even know who you are anymore.
01:04:55I'm your mother.
01:04:56I only want what's best for you.
01:04:59What's best for me?
01:05:01You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it.
01:05:07And that all ends today.
01:05:12You're fired.
01:05:14You're fired.
01:05:15You're fired.
01:05:15You're fired.
01:05:16No.
01:05:17No.
01:05:19No.
01:05:24No.
01:05:25You can't do this to me.
01:05:27Please.
01:05:28Please, sweetie.
01:05:29I have dedicated my life to you.
01:05:31You dedicated your life to money and to fame.
01:05:34I was just who you used to get to it.
01:05:38You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:05:41There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot.
01:05:45I made you.
01:05:46You'd be nothing without me.
01:05:51I think she'll do just fine.
01:05:53We're done here, Mom.
01:06:01If you want any chance to be in Jackson's life or in mine, you'll leave now.
01:06:08Without another word.
01:06:10I have something to say.
01:06:24I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:06:27I'm sorry I took you for granted all of those years.
01:06:30I'm sorry I let my mom manipulate and use you.
01:06:34I'm sorry I brought Preston into our home and poisoned our son towards you.
01:06:44Apologize to your father.
01:06:46Do I have to?
01:06:48Who raised you?
01:06:51Cared for you?
01:06:53Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:06:57Laid with you when you had nightmares and coddled you when you were sick?
01:07:01He did.
01:07:02He loved you.
01:07:03But you treated him like he was nothing.
01:07:06I was wrong.
01:07:07Jackson, he gave us ten years of his life and we abused it.
01:07:13And now there is nothing we could do to take that back.
01:07:17I'm sorry, Dad.
01:07:21This could be okay, son.
01:07:23I love you.
01:07:25Okay.
01:07:26Come on, Jackson.
01:07:27Let's go.
01:07:27Come on.
01:07:33I'm sorry, Daniel.
01:07:37For everything.
01:07:38I know that look, Daniel.
01:07:49You're thinking of going back to them.
01:07:51I just didn't know it would be this hard.
01:07:56They hurt you, Daniel.
01:07:59They tore you to pieces and then just expected you to come running back.
01:08:06People can change.
01:08:09But that doesn't change the past.
01:08:11And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
01:08:23Daniel!
01:08:23Daniel!
01:08:24Daniel!
01:08:24Daniel!
01:08:24Daniel!
01:08:25Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat
01:08:30on a shelf for ten years?
01:08:31Yes.
01:08:32I'll admit I got a little sidelined, but I think I found my way back.
01:08:38But, okay, I'll tell you this.
01:08:42I don't think you can truly love someone else until you love yourself.
01:08:52Way to go, John!
01:09:02Thank you so much for considering me for this part.
01:09:14We'll keep in touch.
01:09:22What do we have today?
01:09:23Forty.
01:09:24Sorry.
01:09:24Jeez.
01:09:25Hey, boy!
01:09:27How are we looking?
01:09:28So, they got hit.
01:09:30No one's cracked the lead yet.
01:09:31I mean, this film lives or dies by a female lead.
01:09:36All right, here's the deal.
01:09:37The studio's on my ass looking to lock in the lead today.
01:09:41Today?
01:09:42Are you fucking kidding me?
01:09:44That's why I love you, man.
01:09:45Cool under pressure.
01:09:46This movie is gonna blow the roof off.
01:09:52Oh, my God.
01:09:53All right, just bring in the next one.
01:09:55So, that would be...
01:09:57Emily Blake.
01:10:01Emily.
01:10:06Emily.
01:10:07Amazing, as always.
01:10:10You flew in all the way from London for this?
01:10:13Please.
01:10:14I was gonna miss a shot.
01:10:15You managed to put the great Daniel Johnson.
01:10:19How's LA treating you?
01:10:20Oh, my God.
01:10:22Less tea, but way more traffic.
01:10:24But I am...
01:10:26I'm glad to be back.
01:10:28Well, it's no English countryside.
01:10:30Yeah.
01:10:30But it suits you.
01:10:34You definitely belong here.
01:10:37I do miss you, though.
01:10:40It was fun.
01:10:41Playing the part.
01:10:43British starlet.
01:10:45American director.
01:10:47I kept waiting for us to become something real.
01:10:51Waiting for us to become something real.
01:10:53I'm sorry, Emily.
01:10:57It just cost me, and we'll call it even.
01:11:00You...
01:11:00You were amazing, as always.
01:11:03It's just...
01:11:04It's just not quite what I'm looking for.
01:11:09I never was, was I?
01:11:12Anyways...
01:11:13Got a few more auditions while I'm in town.
01:11:16Maybe I'll see you around?
01:11:18Yeah.
01:11:18Okay.
01:11:19Okay.
01:11:23Give me a copy, and you know what?
01:11:32Go get one for yourself, too.
01:11:35And be generous with the sugar.
01:11:43Oh, my God.
01:11:44What am I going to do?
01:11:52That was quick.
01:11:53What are you doing here?
01:12:06I came to audition.
01:12:10Did you bring any representation?
01:12:12No.
01:12:13I fired my manager, remember?
01:12:15I need you.
01:12:16You'd be nothing without me.
01:12:21I don't have been.
01:12:23Don't let me go!
01:12:26I got you.
01:12:27I'll never let you go.
01:12:31Are you okay?
01:12:32Yeah.
01:12:33It's an old wound that, um...
01:12:36never really healed.
01:12:39I understand.
01:12:44Daniel Johnson.
01:12:47Nice to meet you.
01:12:48Please.
01:12:50Please.
01:12:59Whenever you're ready.
01:12:59I'll be ready.
01:13:29I'll be ready.
