00:00:00She has to worship Sabrina. What happened?
00:00:02Sabrina was a rising star, and Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart and is stealing it back
00:00:08again.
00:00:09You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You 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?
00:00:21Come back. Get out of Hollywood. In fact, get out of the country.
00:00:25I gave it everything I had. Just wait until she realizes what life's like without me.
00:00:31No! What have I done? He 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. You have everything.
00:00:43I don't have him.
00:00:46He still loves me. He has to. And we need to find him at all costs.
00:00:51Daniel!
00:00:58And the Oscar goes to Daniel Johnson for his original screenplay, Loving Her.
00:01:04Daniel!
00:01:06That loser actually won an Oscar?
00:01:09Who knew the house hubby had it in him? I'm an industry joke now.
00:01:13Daniel, is it true that the script that won you Oscars for both writing and directing sat on a shelf
00:01:18for 10 years?
00:01:20Wow, you did your homework. Yes, I got sidelined for a little bit, but I think I found my way
00:01:24back.
00:01:25I will tell you this. I don't think you can truly love others until you truly love yourself.
00:01:32Daniel really did it. The one standing by his side isn't me anymore.
00:01:37You think you can divorce America's sweetheart? You're nothing but a fucking house husband, Daniel.
00:01:43Our contract expired.
00:01:46I'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
00:01:53son will belong to her.
00:01:57I'll always love my son.
00:01:59But he's a bully, and he learned it from the best in the business. His grandmother.
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.
00:02:11All 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.
00:02:20You've always loved her, Daniel. I've seen it.
00:02:23She needs that now. Stay. Marry her. Love her.
00:02:30So that she doesn't face the world alone.
00:02:32I 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
00:02:45her.
00:02:46This was the last one.
00:02:49Mom? Daniel?
00:02:52What's going on?
00:02:56What's going on?
00:02:58Honey!
00:02:59Honey!
00:02:59I was just telling Daniel he needs to stop dressing like a bum.
00:03:03If the paparazzi catch him next to you, ugh!
00:03:07But I need to go. I have an appointment with your stylist.
00:03:11Think about it, Daniel.
00:03:16Once 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.
00:03:39I mean, we owe him.
00:03:40Yeah. And then he cheated on you, and I'm the one who picked up the pieces.
00:03:44I'm starving. When are we eating?
00:03:47Lunch is on the stove.
00:03:49But first, your mother and I need to talk.
00:03:51No! I want to eat now!
00:04:04You 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 god-awful Fanity Fair shoot.
00:04:16I got something I need to tell you.
00:04:18I'll make it quick.
00:04:19This isn't easy, but I-
00:04:21Ew! What is this?
00:04:23It's mom's vegetable and quinoa stew.
00:04:25I don't want healthy food!
00:04:26I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:27Chicken nuggets, chicken nuggets!
00:04:29You can't have that every day.
00:04:31It's not healthy for you.
00:04:32But I want that!
00:04:34Jackson, when I say no, I mean no.
00:04:38You suck!
00:04:39I want chicken nuggets!
00:04:41Give me chicken nuggets!
00:04:49I waited.
00:04:51I gave it everything I had.
00:04:53But it takes two to make a marriage work.
00:04:56And my self-absorbed wife would rather be with the man that almost ruined her life than me.
00:05:02Enough. Just enough.
00:05:08I want a divorce.
00:05:11I want a divorce.
00:05:17Sabrina, did you hear me?
00:05:19Huh?
00:05:22I want a di-
00:05:25I want chicken nuggets!
00:05:26Give me chicken nuggets!
00:05:28Jackson, honey, you need to listen to your father, okay?
00:05:32Now go upstairs, get cleaned up.
00:05:34We'll get you some real food.
00:05:35Okay.
00:05:40Seriously, your only job is to take care of the house and the family.
00:05:44I mean, it's not that hard.
00:05:47What is this?
00:05:48Another contract?
00:05:50How 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.
00:06:03I have that red carpet event coming up, and I really need you to pull your weight.
00:06:08Pull my weight?
00:06:09Yeah, you get it.
00:06:11Okay.
00:06:12Mwah!
00:06:13Love you.
00:06:14I've devoted myself to this family for ten long years.
00:06:18If 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 greenlit, and the studio wants you to direct.
00:06:34We need you on a plane to Australia tomorrow.
00:06:36I can't.
00:06:37My 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.
00:06:49I was able to use the money Celeste gave me to save my mother's life.
00:06:53Hey, Mom.
00:06:54How you doing?
00:06:54Oh, good, dear.
00:06:56I just noticed that you transfer more money to my account.
00:07:00Do you need more?
00:07:01No, no, no, no.
00:07:02You'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.
00:07:20And I promise, very soon, everything's going to change.
00:07:27You have a wonderful fear.
00:07:29You deserve more than what they put you through.
00:07:31Everyone, come quick, come quick!
00:07:33I gotta go.
00:07:34Love you.
00:07:38What is it, Mom?
00:07:39Someone 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
00:07:54and is stealing it back again.
00:07:58Preston Eastwood, the man that broke my wife's heart.
00:08:07All right, cut.
00:08:09That's a wrap, everyone.
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.
00:08:21Our future's ahead of us.
00:08:25If only she didn't fall for Hollywood's golden asshole.
00:08:58You destroyed me.
00:09:02She didn't fall for her.
00:09:16Sabrina, don't!
00:09:19Stay back.
00:09:20I mean it.
00:09:22Sabrina, don't do this.
00:09:26Just...
00:09:28Just give me your hand.
00:09:41No!
00:09:42No!
00:09:44Daniel!
00:09:45I got you.
00:09:46No!
00:09:47Don't let me go!
00:09:49I won't ever let you go.
00:09:56I'm so alone, Daniel.
00:09:59Nobody 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 you!
00:10:16Oh my gosh, how long has it been?
00:10:18Oh, too long.
00:10:18Look at you!
00:10:20Oh, I'm so glad you could make it to my little slice in the Hollywood Hills.
00:10:23Oh my God, of course, babe.
00:10:25Thank you for letting me stay here for a little bit.
00:10:26Are 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?
00:10:42Stop!
00:10:43I can't believe my wife would invite the ex she tried to kill herself over into our home.
00:10:49Sabrina, I don't remember agreeing to having him stay over.
00:10:53Daniel, don't embarrass me.
00:10:55No, it's fine.
00:10:56Whoa, you played Brett Steele in your action spy movie?
00:11:01He's not just tough, he's Brett Steele tough, you think, you know?
00:11:05My friends are, but my dad doesn't let me watch it.
00:11:07He doesn't let me do anything.
00:11:09Now that I'm here, we'll be able to bend some of dad's rules.
00:11:12What are you saying, huh?
00:11:14Yeah.
00:11:14Sabrina, I think it's time he leaves.
00:11:18That's fine.
00:11:20That's fine.
00:11:21Just relax, okay?
00:11:23Be nice.
00:11:32Some people never change, but once our divorce is finalized,
00:11:36I won't be there to save her when he breaks her heart again.
00:11:40Yeah, it's nice.
00:11:42But this mansion is still the second most stunning thing on this sale.
00:11:52Oh, careful.
00:11:54You all right?
00:11:57I'm still starving.
00:11:59Make me some food.
00:12:00Jackson, there's leftover stew in the fridge.
00:12:03Stew?
00:12:04Oh, what is this, a soup kitchen?
00:12:06I 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.
00:12:19Oh, babe.
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.
00:12:29Which 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.
00:12:37See, 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.
00:12:42They 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.
00:12:51So, how about we go to an exclusive restaurant?
00:12:55My treat.
00:12:57Here we go.
00:12:58What?
00:12:59Oh, you don't have to do that.
00:13:00I don't mind.
00:13:01All of you insist.
00:13:03I mean, I'm already dressed.
00:13:06Okay.
00:13:08Oh, and I would invite you, Daniel, but there's a little bit of a dress cut.
00:13:12So, anyways.
00:13:13Come on, Ben.
00:13:14Let's go.
00:13:16That's great.
00:13:16Gotcha.
00:13:17There we go.
00:13:18Oh.
00:13:20There's Paps.
00:13:21You 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.
00:13:34Hey.
00:13:35Hi.
00:13:36Jackson.
00:13:42Well, did you use your brain, or are you following through on the divorce?
00:13:46Contract's fine.
00:13:48It'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.
00:13:58So, 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.
00:14:25Sabrina Donovan, I could scream.
00:14:28I'm literally obsessed with you.
00:14:30Preston Eastwood, I haven't seen the two of you together since Breaking the Ice.
00:14:34OMG, I used to always replay that scene where you guys kissed at the hockey rink.
00:14:37A scene that I wrote, uncredited of course.
00:14:40Even my success is shadowed by her fame.
00:14:42Wait, are you two dating?
00:14:44Oh, well actually, this is totally a date.
00:14:47All 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...
00:15:16Oh, it'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.
00:15:40That's what all the boys at school say.
00:15:42He does girly stuff like cook and clean.
00:15:46But Preston is awesome.
00:15:48He's an action spy.
00:15:50I wish he was my dad.
00:15:53My own son doesn't respect me.
00:15:55But we'll see if Preston's the type of dad he wants when he comes home coked out from a Hollywood
00:16:00afterparty with 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 cool 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.
00:16:19Let's give him a show.
00:16:35Now, that's a Hollywood couple.
00:16:40I told you this divorce was a mistake.
00:16:42Sabrina will end up on top, and you will end up with nothing.
00:16:49Daniel!
00:16:50You 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, he's here?
00:16:58Did he see us?
00:16:59Is he looking over here?
00:17:01Fuck, that's not good.
00:17:02I was just doing that for publicity.
00:17:03I 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?
00:17:12Now you can be with Mr. Preston.
00:17:14Jackson, enough.
00:17:17What do I do?
00:17:18Well, that's it then.
00:17:21Now I need to handle Sabrina.
00:17:22I need to leverage her relationship with Preston with the tabloids.
00:17:26I'm sure you'll spin the story to whatever suits you.
00:17:29You're really good at that.
00:17:31Oh!
00:17:32I have a parting gift for you.
00:17:34A one-way ticket so you can get as far away from this family as possible.
00:17:40I know the contract is over, but if I see one stitch of bad press about the Donovans,
00:17:46I will come after you with everything I got.
00:17:48Daniel loves me.
00:17:49He has to understand.
00:17:51This is Hollywood.
00:17:51It's just part of the job.
00:17:54Daniel, 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 cancelled.
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?
00:18:19A vacation?
00:18:21Finally.
00:18:21You're paying attention.
00:18:23Yeah.
00:18:25I'm going to leave in a few days.
00:18:26Well, thanks for telling your wife.
00:18:28What are we supposed to do without you?
00:18:30Without 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.
00:18:43Is it me?
00:18:44Is 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.
00:18:54No, 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.
00:19:03He's 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!
00:19:24Oh, please.
00:19:25The bed's in here.
00:19:27This is...
00:19:27Yeah.
00:19:29Shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:19:31Oh, good.
00:19:33You're up.
00:19:35Um, after dinner we went to an A-lister party in Bel-Air.
00:19:40It's fun.
00:19:42Why don't look at me like that?
00:19:43I'm allowed to have a little bit of fun.
00:19:46Anyways, Preston had a few too many drinks to be alone.
00:19:51How lucky for him.
00:19:52He's got his girl to take care of him when he's drunk.
00:19:55Daniel, whatever you saw at the restaurant, it's not like that.
00:19:59Listen, Matt, I...
00:20:01I've had every opportunity to sleep with her and nothing happened.
00:20:04You can trust me.
00:20:07Preston, I think you're...
00:20:09You need to lay down.
00:20:11All right.
00:20:12Oh, hey.
00:20:14Daniel, 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.
00:20:22I'm going to be the best man of the house.
00:20:26Just ignore him.
00:20:27He doesn't know what he's saying.
00:20:28No, 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?
00:20:36My 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.
00:20:56Daniel, can Preston sleep in here tonight so I can look after him?
00:21:02Oh, my God.
00:21:04God, you're unbelievable.
00:21:08Are you really going to ask your husband if you can sleep with your ex?
00:21:12No, it's not like that.
00:21:15I...
00:21:15What?
00:21:17You know what?
00:21:18Fine.
00:21:21You two look great together.
00:21:25Daniel, I...
00:21:35And to think there was a time I wanted to make our marriage work.
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.
00:22:38Look 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.
00:22:49Look at her now.
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.
00:23:10Life of an A-lister, I guess.
00:23:14I've got 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.
00:23:30Hey, 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 her for you, little man.
00:24:09Here we go.
00:24:11Ooh.
00:24:12He knows not to play with them.
00:24:16You never let me do anything!
00:24:19Come on.
00:24:20It'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.
00:24:43I 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 manservant like you.
00:24:51God, what the hell is he just shopping?
00:24:56Call it a lesson.
00:24:57I'm teaching the kid to go after what he wants.
00:24:58He's not your kid.
00:25:00I wish I would.
00:25:01I 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 yours permanent?
00:25:12Maybe it will be.
00:25:13But until then, I'm still the man of the house.
00:25:17You?
00:25:19Man of the house?
00:25:20Please.
00:25:20You'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?
00:25:31I heard your agent's begging for scraps.
00:25:34I'm a fucking star!
00:25:35A 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.
00:25:44Preston's way cooler than you.
00:25:46Preston, Preston, Preston!
00:26:11You know, there's a reason we say everyone's replaceable in Hollywood.
00:26:15What was that?
00:26:25It was Dad, Mom.
00:26:26Dad was attacking Mr. Eastwood.
00:26:29What?
00:26:29I'm so scared.
00:26:30That'd be pretty good, babe.
00:26:31What the hell, Daniel?
00:26:33I just wanted to hang out with Jackson.
00:26:34He came in looking for a fight.
00:26:36What?
00:26:36I 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.
00:26:57I'm sorry.
00:26:58No.
00:26:59Oh my God.
00:27:00He'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.
00:27:11Close it.
00:27:11We'll talk about this when I get home.
00:27:13Come on.
00:27:14Clean this up.
00:27:17Soon you won't be coming home to me ever again.
00:27:22She's mine now, loser.
00:27:32Hello, 9-1-1.
00:27:33What's your emergency?
00:27:35I'm bleeding out.
00:27:36I think I hit a battery.
00:27:38I need an ambulance now.
00:27:39Now.
00:27:49You did lose a lot of blood.
00:27:51So we're going to have to keep you here overnight to pump you with liquids.
00:27:55To be honest, I could use a break from home.
00:27:58Trouble with the missus?
00:28:01Uh, yeah.
00:28:03It's pretty obvious.
00:28:05Most married folks that come in here are miserable.
00:28:08I shouldn't be saying this, but Sabrina Donovan was here.
00:28:13With Preston Eastwood.
00:28:15True love story holding hands, wiping tears.
00:28:19I've been obsessed with them since breaking the ice.
00:28:22You said, um, couple?
00:28:24I wasn't sure, but I checked the visitation logs and it's official.
00:28:29She even helped me reposition Preston when his IV was twisted.
00:28:34She was so sweet.
00:28:39Need us to check on that shoulder for you?
00:28:42No, it's...
00:28:44It's an old wound.
00:28:46I tore it, actually, um, ten years ago.
00:28:50Daniel!
00:28:52Sweet and caring.
00:28:54So Preston's found the Wi-Fi I always wanted.
00:28:57He only had to break her heart to get it.
00:28:59And left me to pick up the pieces.
00:29:07Oh, fuck.
00:29:09I'm gonna get my shit in y'all.
00:29:12Mr. Lee, I don't know if you remember me.
00:29:14You once liked my short film.
00:29:16I have a script I've been sitting on.
00:29:26It needs the right producer.
00:29:28I know it's a long shot, but I'd be honored if you'd read it.
00:29:32Where have you been?
00:29:34I kept calling.
00:29:35I started to feel like one of my stalkers.
00:29:38Huh?
00:29:42What?
00:29:43I've been busy.
00:29:44Anyways, I thought you were busy entertaining Preston.
00:29:46Uh, seriously?
00:29:48Why does it always have to come back to him?
00:29:50I told you, he's just a friend.
00:29:54Yeah.
00:29:55That's what you want to call it?
00:29:58I...
00:29:58I just...
00:30:00I'm sorry.
00:30:01I...
00:30:02Bringing Preston into our home was probably crossing the line.
00:30:09It is what it is.
00:30:11But, I mean, you know how the industry works.
00:30:15You even just hint at a relationship and it stirs up all this publicity.
00:30:19Then I think you should go for it.
00:30:21I mean, you always do what's best for your career.
00:30:24But, I just...
00:30:25I don't want you to be upset with me.
00:30:31Seriously.
00:30:32I...
00:30:32I care about you.
00:30:38I'm no man.
00:30:40I've known you for 14 years.
00:30:42I know when you're angry.
00:30:43Really?
00:30:44I didn't think you paid attention.
00:30:46I pay attention?
00:30:48Since when do I not pay attention?
00:30:51She signed the papers without reading them.
00:30:54That's all this marriage ever was to her.
00:30:55A headline.
00:30:57A performance.
00:30:59Sabrina.
00:31:03Sabrina, I'm good.
00:31:04You know what?
00:31:05I hate fighting.
00:31:07So, let's just forget about this, okay?
00:31:10I was thinking.
00:31:11We could revisit your script.
00:31:16I gave that to you three years ago.
00:31:19You tell me you finally read it?
00:31:21Well, yeah.
00:31:22The first ten pages.
00:31:24But, they're good.
00:31:25The lead role is something I can really sink my teeth into.
00:31:29I mean, we have to do this.
00:31:30Me and you.
00:31:31The lead actress and the writer-director.
00:31:35I gave up on that dream of us working together.
00:31:39A long time ago.
00:31:41Well, how about you make us some lattes, and for the next hour, we can just pour ourselves
00:31:46into the script.
00:31:48Just like we used to in film school.
00:31:51There was a time when this would have worked on me.
00:31:54I would have melted in her hands.
00:31:56Now I just want to pack and get out of here.
00:31:59What?
00:32:03What?
00:32:14I don't know what you do, but I asked the chef to make a latte while you were gone,
00:32:19and it was awful.
00:32:22Well, I've had a lot of experience making it for you, and I'll be sure to tell him how
00:32:25you like it.
00:32:25That's not what I meant.
00:32:28I like it when you make it.
00:32:31I'm not going to always be here to make it.
00:32:35I knew it.
00:32:37You are mad that I brought Preston back here.
00:32:40I told you it was just a publicity stunt.
00:32:44God, it's not like our marriage is going to get me on the cover of Vanity Fair.
00:32:48Married people are fucking boring.
00:32:52It's good to know where you stand.
00:32:54No, Daniel.
00:32:55No, that's not what I meant.
00:33:02Look what you made me do.
00:33:04Just leave it.
00:33:07I thought you would appreciate that I read your script.
00:33:11And what?
00:33:12It would make up for all the years of indifference?
00:33:14I'm just trying to do something nice.
00:33:16And look what I get for it.
00:33:18You know what?
00:33:20Forget it.
00:33:21I have a premiere.
00:33:22Let's just talk about this tomorrow.
00:33:38What?
00:33:39Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?
00:33:41Yeah.
00:33:42Ex-mother-in-law.
00:33:42Not quite.
00:33:43That was the divorce contract.
00:33:45But if you want a clean break, we need to finalize your entertainment contract and our family's NDA.
00:33:50This is showbiz, baby.
00:33:51Remember that.
00:33:52I'll text you the address of where to meet me.
00:34:04I heard she was sneaking Preston Eastwood into her trailer on set.
00:34:09Oh, please.
00:34:10She's always been so secretive.
00:34:12I mean, this is her movie premiere, and where is her husband?
00:34:16Maybe she's embarrassed by him.
00:34:18I read somewhere that he was just a broke writer's assistant.
00:34:24Oh, well, if we want the tea, let's get it from the pot.
00:34:27Come here.
00:34:28Oh.
00:34:31Jackson!
00:34:33We were just talking about your mom.
00:34:35Do you know where she is?
00:34:36Or who she's with?
00:34:38She's with Mr. Eastwood.
00:34:40He's been staying with us.
00:34:41Oh, really?
00:34:44Do you think Mr. Eastwood might be your new daddy?
00:34:47Oh, I hope so.
00:34:48I really hope so.
00:34:49He's way cooler than my old, boring, real dad.
00:34:53Speaking of, I don't think we've ever met your real dad.
00:34:56Yeah, he usually stays at home doing chores like a maid.
00:35:05What are you doing here?
00:35:06You never come to these things.
00:35:08Oh, that's got to be the husband.
00:35:12Get lost!
00:35:13You embarrass us!
00:35:14Jackson, do not talk to me like that.
00:35:16I'm your father.
00:35:17I wish you never were my dad.
00:35:22Is there a problem?
00:35:27Oh, my God.
00:35:29That's Preston Eastwood.
00:35:30How could Sabrina choose this flop over Preston?
00:35:34If there was a problem, that's none of your business.
00:35:36I wish Preston was my dad.
00:35:38You're a pathetic loser.
00:35:39Zip it, Jackson.
00:35:41You should probably listen to your kid and head out because you're starting to make a scene.
00:35:46I'm just here to talk to Celeste.
00:35:48That's not what I see.
00:35:50You showed up uninvited, in street rags, abused Sabrina's kid, and picked a fight with an A-lister.
00:35:58That's the kind of story the press would devour.
00:36:01It doesn't take much to be canceled these days.
00:36:04And then they would praise Sabrina for divorcing your sorry ass.
00:36:08This was all a stunt, wasn't it?
00:36:11You were revolting.
00:36:13No wonder Sabrina turned out the way she did.
00:36:15Hey.
00:36:17Why don't you watch your mouth?
00:36:19Trash like him is always forgetting their place in the world.
00:36:22Yeah.
00:36:23Maybe I should teach him a lesson.
00:36:24Oh, yeah?
00:36:25What lesson is that, Preston?
00:36:27You groveling back to your ex that you cheated on so that you can leech off her career?
00:36:30Hmm.
00:36:35Oh!
00:36:52The hell?
00:36:54What happened?
00:36:56Oh, my God.
00:36:57Daniel!
00:36:58What the hell happened?
00:37:00Daniel, you're bleeding.
00:37:02Are you okay?
00:37:03Look at her go.
00:37:05Hollywood's finest.
00:37:07Always performing when there's an audience.
00:37:10It's Daniel.
00:37:11He's a monster.
00:37:12He found out about your premiere and crashed the party.
00:37:15Mommy!
00:37:16Dad came in here and started shouting at me.
00:37:19No.
00:37:19No, that's not true.
00:37:21If Preston weren't here, Daniel would have manhandled Jackson in front of the reporters.
00:37:26Can you imagine the allegations?
00:37:30Daniel.
00:37:31Is that true?
00:37:34Sabrina.
00:37:37Yeah, I think he got me in the ribs.
00:37:41I think one of them's broken.
00:37:43Sabrina?
00:37:44Honey?
00:37:45We need to help Preston.
00:37:48But...
00:37:49But Daniel!
00:37:52Imagine choosing that loser for Preston Eastwood.
00:37:55I don't know...
00:37:56God.
00:37:56Come on.
00:37:56Come on.
00:37:57Come on.
00:38:06Mommy, please.
00:38:07We can't leave him!
00:38:09I...
00:38:09I have...
00:38:11I have to help Preston.
00:38:20I got you
00:38:26Come on, Jackson
00:38:29Daniel!
00:38:34I got you
00:38:35Don't let me go
00:38:37She's made her choice
00:38:39There's no going back
00:38:41We'll see if Preston can give her the life she's grown used to
00:38:44After all these years of me
00:38:46Slaving for her
00:38:53Well
00:38:55That went even better than I planned
00:38:58Now we can make a clean break
00:39:00I wasn't waiting for your permission
00:39:02There's an Uber waiting for you outside
00:39:04To take you to the airport
00:39:07Get out of Hollywood
00:39:09In fact
00:39:09Get out of the country
00:39:12If I so much as see your name
00:39:14Next to my daughters in a tabloid
00:39:16I will make your life a living hell
00:39:32Don't worry about it
00:39:33Just drive
00:39:46I used to ache for her approval
00:39:49Now I just want to breathe without her shadow
00:39:54Seriously?
00:39:55So long
00:39:58I'm gonna go call the doctor
00:40:00Hey
00:40:03What are you doing?
00:40:04I thought you were hurt
00:40:05Nothing helpful through him
00:40:13I don't know
00:40:14Russell, what are you doing?
00:40:16What I've always wanted to
00:40:18Come on
00:40:18I know you want this
00:40:19I see the way you look at me
00:40:21Now that Daniel's gone
00:40:23We have the house to ourself
00:40:24We can finally have you
00:40:27In this bedroom
00:40:37What am I doing?
00:40:39Daniel is still injured
00:40:40He should be home
00:40:45Sabrina?
00:40:55Preston, get off
00:40:58What?

00:41:00Come on
00:41:01I said get off
00:41:02What?
00:41:03I need to go take care of Daniel
00:41:04No, forget about him
00:41:06Look
00:41:07I love Jackson
00:41:09And I'm ready to be the man
00:41:10That you've always wanted
00:41:11I'm ready to be a dad
00:41:13To that little boy
00:41:15I mean, come on

00:41:23He's already moved on
00:41:26No
00:41:27No
00:41:28What have I done?
00:41:30Where is he?
00:41:32What about me?
00:41:33You had a chance
00:41:34Ten years ago
00:41:35I need to go take care of my husband
00:41:44Hello?
00:41:45Excuse me
00:41:46Excuse me
00:41:47Excuse me
00:41:48Hi
00:41:48Have you seen my husband?
00:41:51Please
00:41:51He was someone bleeding out
00:41:52I saw him stumble outside
00:41:54Holding his head
00:41:55After he spoke to some older woman
00:41:57He didn't come back in though
00:42:00Oh
00:42:00No
00:42:02Daniel, where are you?
00:42:04I'm sorry
00:42:05But the number you are trying to reach
00:42:07Is no longer in service
00:42:08Please try again later
00:42:10What have I done?
00:42:22Come on, Daniel
00:42:23Answer me
00:42:30He's not gone
00:42:32I know Daniel wouldn't leave me
00:42:42He loves me too much
00:42:44To abandon me
00:42:45When I need him the most
00:42:46No
00:42:50It's not possible
00:42:51He will be back
00:42:55No
00:43:06Boy, it's all assets
00:43:08Climb zero, custody over Jackson
00:43:10The waves all spousal support
00:43:14No
00:43:14No, he can't leave me
00:43:16He can't do this to me
00:43:18I won't sign off on it
00:43:19No
00:43:29No
00:43:31All this time
00:43:32He's gonna leave me
00:43:48It can't be
00:43:51It's not a
00:43:52Honestly, it doesn't matter
00:43:54My mom will look it over anyways
00:43:55He loves me
00:43:57He loves Jackson
00:44:00He wouldn't just leave us
00:44:02We're his family
00:44:03After all these years
00:44:05Everything 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
00:44:41Is everything okay?
00:44:43You sound panicked
00:44:43Mom
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
00:44:56Or the
00:44:57Oh, honey
00:44:58It's over
00:45:00Daniel's not coming back
00:45:02You knew?
00:45:04I'll come over in the morning
00:45:05And explain everything
00:45:14I'm hungry
00:45:16I'm hungry
00:45:17Breakfast should be ready by now
00:45:20Jackson?
00:45:23I have something to tell you
00:45:27Your dad
00:45:29Your dad
00:45:32He's left us
00:45:34I'm sorry
00:45:35But he's not coming back
00:45:36Yay, he's gone
00:45:37He's gone
00:45:39Why would you say that?
00:45:41He was so embarrassing
00:45:42Even Mr. Eastwood
00:45:44Mr. Eastwood?
00:45:46What did Preston say?
00:45:47He said a pathetic pussy like that
00:45:49Should stick to scrubbing toilets
00:45:51Then raising a young man
00:45:54He was so lame and boring
00:45:56Now he's gone
00:45:57Mr. Eastwood is way cooler
00:46:00He can be my new dad
00:46:01Jackson
00:46:02You have a dad
00:46:04And 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
00:46:18It's your accountant
00:46:20I noticed a few unusual transfers
00:46:22I'm sorry
00:46:23I don't have the time
00:46:23Large sums have been wired
00:46:25To someone named
00:46:26Preston Eastwood
00:46:28Was that done with your approval?
00:46:29No
00:46:29But I'm not surprised
00:46:31Flag his name
00:46:33I want him frozen and cut off
00:46:37Jackson
00:46:37I don't want to ever hear you say
00:46:39Preston's name again
00:46:40Okay?
00:46:41He's not the man you think he is
00:46:43Your father
00:46:44The one who raised you
00:46:45And cared about you
00:46:46Is 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?
00:46:53Huh?
00:46:54It's despicable
00:46:55I can't do this anymore
00:46:58I cancel everything
00:46:59The interviews
00:47:01And the red carpets
00:47:02I don't want to be seen
00:47:04I can't pretend
00:47:06I just want him back
00:47:08Oh honey
00:47:10It's time to let him go
00:47:13You don't love him anyway
00:47:14And think about what Preston would do for your career
00:47:21What?
00:47:22How could you say something like that?
00:47:24Of course I love Daniel
00:47:27He cares for me
00:47:28He sees me
00:47:29He was there for me when Preston dropped me like I was nothing
00:47:33But Daniel is a pathetic nobody
00:47:37Daniel's my husband
00:47:39And the father of my son
00:47:40Yeah, some husband
00:47:42Abandoning you without a moment's notice
00:47:44Wanting nothing to do with this child
00:47:45Just because the contract ended?
00:47:47Contract?
00:47:49What contract?
00:47:54What are you talking about?
00:47:57Forget it
00:47:57Forget it
00:47:59Just pretend I didn't say anything
00:48:00When I caught you and Daniel at the restaurant the other day
00:48:03You said that he was going on a trip
00:48:05Is there something you're not telling me?
00:48:08Please
00:48:08I just want the truth
00:48:11Mom
00:48:13Fine
00:48:14I will tell you the truth
00:48:16But promise me you won't get mad
00:48:20I'll tell you the truth, Sabrina
00:48:24But no, it was all for your own good
00:48:30When Preston left you, you were distraught
00:48:32I had to save you
00:48:35She's lost without you, Daniel
00:48:39You've always been there for her
00:48:40From film school to now
00:48:42I've seen it
00:48:44She needs you
00:48:45Stay
00:48:46Marry her
00:48:47Love 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
00:49:04You wanted to control me
00:49:06All because you needed me for my career, my money
00:49:09Well, it worked, didn't it?
00:49:15You were about to throw yourself off a rooftop
00:49:19Daniel did what he was meant to do
00:49:21He 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
00:49:33Hollywood starlet
00:49:35Believe me, it'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 forever
00:49:43He can't be!
00:49:45He can't be gone!
00:49:46He can't!
00:50:06I'm live at the highly anticipated premiere of How to Tame a Silver Fox
00:50:10That's already generated a considerable buzz for its new writer-director
00:50:16Speaking of which, there he is now
00:50:18Mr. Daniel Johnson
00:50:22Daniel, your film received the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival
00:50:26What's going through your head tonight?
00:50:29Honestly, I'm just trying not to trip over my own sheet
00:50:32Nobody told me now
00:50:34Oh man, how uncomfortable these designer shoes would be
00:50:37I've heard this talk of a sequel
00:50:39Uh, yeah, um
00:50:40God, my career's been a long time in the making
00:50:43And I haven't been very honest about it, actually
00:50:46I almost, I almost gave up the dream
00:50:47But London
00:50:50London lit the fire under me
00:50:51And I feel like I found my voice
00:50:53And it really is
00:50:55Full steam ahead
00:50:56Speaking of London
00:50:57Since you're an American writer-director
00:50:59Will you be making your way back to Hollywood?
00:51:03Hollywood
00:51:05Get out of the country
00:51:07If I so much as see your name next to my daughters in a tabloid
00:51:11I will make your life a living hell
00:51:16Daniel?
00:51:31He's no good at bragging about himself
00:51:32So I'll do it for him
00:51:34Daniel is a true auteur
00:51:36And a creative genius
00:51:38And it was a privilege to be his leading lady
00:51:41That's not a light compliment coming from Emily Blake
00:51:44Two-time Golden Globe Award-winning actress
00:51:46And celebrated alumni of the Royal Shakespeare Company
00:51:49Well, I've heard that, uh
00:51:51Your relationship wasn't just professional
00:51:53We'll never tell
00:51:54Oh my god, thanks for saving me
00:52:00She was practically eye-fucking you
00:52:02I know, jeez
00:52:03This is so surreal
00:52:05I mean, I can't believe this has happened to me
00:52:07I can
00:52:08The moment I read your script
00:52:10I knew you were special
00:52:13Daniel
00:52:14Enjoy this
00:52:16And get used to compliments
00:52:18There's already Oscar buzz
00:52:20Fuck
00:52:21Finish me, I know
00:52:22I feel like I'm dreaming
00:52:26You okay?
00:52:27You always do that when you're nervous
00:52:29Of course
00:52:29I know, it's, um
00:52:31Old habit
00:52:32Well
00:52:33The world's about to meet its new favourite filmmaker
00:52:37Some of us just got a head start
00:52:49But
00:52:50Of course it's good press
00:52:57Daniel becomes an award-winning director
00:53:00And he's cheating on me with a BAFTA-winning bitch
00:53:03You can't do this to me
00:53:07Sabrina
00:53:07You don't need him
00:53:09Let him have his 15 minutes of fame
00:53:11How can he move on to 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 in the first place, hmm?
00:53:22He wanted to start his career under the Donovan name
00:53:24How could you say that?
00:53:26I mean, if anything, being with me hurt his career
00:53:29He's proving that to the whole world
00:53:32Don't you see it?
00:53:33Sabrina
00:53:34Look at what you've got
00:53:36A celebrated career
00:53:38A mansion in the hills
00:53:40An adorable kid
00:53:41Well, then he's not whining
00:53:43And don't forget about Preston
00:53:45Your dream man
00:53:47You have everything
00:53:49I don't have him
00:53:51Mom, I'm hungry
00:53:53Go have the chef make something
00:53:54No, I hate what she cooks
00:53:56And 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, Preston is my real dad now
00:54:05Daniel's just a guy who made me snacks and cleaned the toilet
00:54:09It was fun telling him what to do
00:54:10When did he get so cruel?
00:54:13Oh, you see, even your own son thinks Daniel's a pathetic pushover
00:54:16A doormat
00:54:19Daniel's a doormat
00:54:20Daniel's a doormat
00:54:22Enough, you little shit
00:54:25Enough, just enough
00:54:28Sabrina
00:54:29What's gotten into you?
00:54:31Don't tell me you are actually heartbroken over that man
00:54:34Whoa
00:54:36What's going on here?
00:54:37This room feels really tense
00:54:39Mom just yelled at me for no reason
00:54:41I was just making fun of Daniel
00:54:42No
00:54:43I yelled at you because you're making fun of your father
00:54:46And if you keep talking like that
00:54:48I'm going to put you in a timeout
00:54:49It's time that you stop acting like a spoiled little brat
00:54:56Hey, babe
00:54:57Are you really going to get mad at Jackson for what?
00:55:00Making fun of that fucking loser?
00:55:01Really?
00:55:02Loser?
00:55:03Yeah
00:55:03You haven't had a job in over a year, Preston
00:55:06And you've been mooching off of me
00:55:08And ordering my staff around like you're their boss
00:55:15That's really, really low
00:55:17Especially after everything I've done to help you with your brand
00:55:20And keeping it from collapsing in the last year
00:55:22Come on, we're America's power couple
00:55:24To be a power couple, you both have to have power
00:55:27Face it, Preston
00:55:29You're using me to hide the fact that you're washed up
00:55:32And you're a fucking thief
00:55:34Yeah, I know you're bankrupt
00:55:36You've been stealing from me all year long
00:55:39I could have you arrested
00:55:41But I haven't
00:55:42Because you know what?
00:55:43Honestly, I pity you
00:55:45It's not like that
00:55:46Okay, look
00:55:47I was just merging things
00:55:48Like couples do
00:55:49I want to marry you
00:55:51We're legacy Hollywood fucking royalty
00:55:53What's my birthday?
00:55:55Huh?
00:55:56What kind of flowers do I like?
00:55:58What's my favorite color?
00:55:59My favorite song?
00:56:00Oh, what's my favorite goddamn movie?
00:56:03Oh, oh wait
00:56:04What's my fucking middle name?
00:56:06You don't give a shit about me
00:56:09You don't love me
00:56:10You don't even know me
00:56:11This isn't a relationship
00:56:13This is a publicity stunt
00:56:16And you know what?
00:56:17I'm done
00:56:18Get out
00:56:19I don't want to ever see you again
00:56:22We're over
00:56:23We're over
00:56:24Hey, hey, come on
00:56:26Please, please
00:56:27I love you
00:56:27Just 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 uglier
00:56:35Get out
00:56:36Hey, just
00:56:37Now
00:56:38Just give me your hand
00:56:39Come on
00:56:39No
00:56:40I'm so alone, Daniel
00:56:44Nobody sees the real me
00:56:45I see you, Sabrina
00:56:47I see all of you
00:56:49And you're never gonna be alone again
00:56:51He truly knew me
00:56:55He loved me
00:56:57Every flaw
00:56:59Every fear
00:57:00Contract or not
00:57:02He truly loved me
00:57:05I saved you from social suicide
00:57:07Saved me?
00:57:08You don't even know how ironic that is
00:57:11Daniel saved me from the ledge
00:57:13And he saved me from you
00:57:16Security
00:57:19Security
00:57:19Just let's talk about this
00:57:21No
00:57:22God
00:57:23Celeste
00:57:24Do something
00:57:25Sabrina
00:57:26More
00:57:27Sabrina
00:57:28Was that really necessary?
00:57:31I mean, he still is a Hollywood A-lister
00:57:33And people's sexiest man alive
00:57:35Is that all you care about?
00:57:36The fame
00:57:37The headlines
00:57:38The brand deals
00:57:39God
00:57:40You're supposed to be my mother first
00:57:43Not some money-grubbing manager
00:57:46Sabrina
00:57:46You are being dramatic
00:57:48Of course I care about you
00:57:51I love you
00:57:52Then prove it
00:57:54If you ever want me in front of a camera again
00:57:56Then you will help me get Daniel back
00:58:11You'll have to forgive me, Mr. Lee
00:58:12I'm kind of in shock right now
00:58:15In film school
00:58:16We were literally told to watch every single film that you ever produced
00:58:20I mean, you know this
00:58:22You're a legend
00:58:23I appreciate it, Daniel
00:58:24All right, let me cut to the chase
00:58:26You're a powerhouse sitting idol in the wrong country
00:58:29I appreciate the compliment
00:58:30But I mean, I'm doing all right
00:58:31I got projects
00:58:32Come on
00:58:32You're built for billion dollar franchises
00:58:35Hollywood blockbusters
00:58:36The one that gets made in LA
00:58:37Not London
00:58:38That's where you belong
00:58:41To be honest, I already did LA
00:58:43It didn't really end well
00:58:44Let me guess
00:58:45My girl?
00:58:46If by a girl
00:58:48He means
00:58:49Hollywood royalty
00:58:50Sabrina Donovan
00:58:51You don't walk away from a gift like yours over some heartbreak
00:58:54You can become a household name
00:58:56And I can get you there
00:58:58You're giving me a lot to think about

00:59:15And tell the fuck off
00:59:27Hey, it's been a while
00:59:30Can we talk?
00:59:32Daniel, can you give us a hint
00:59:33About your first movie
00:59:34With Crazy Maple Studio?
00:59:36Of course
00:59:36It's about a man
00:59:37Who gets fucked over
00:59:38By America's sweetheart
00:59:39And comes out on top
00:59:41Is this a personal story?
00:59:43Will we get a hint
00:59:44At who the mystery woman is?
00:59:47Oh
00:59:49She knows who she is
00:59:50Um
00:59:52I'll leave it at that
00:59:54Oh
00:59:55You 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
01:00:01A world of hell
01:00:07It's Celeste Donovan
01:00:08I need a favor
01:00:09I need you to track down
01:00:11Daniel Johnson
01:00:11And find out where he'll be
01:00:12Around eight o'clock tonight
01:00:14Thank you
01:00:16It's time for a little reunion
01:00:17With Hollywood's newest hot shot
01:00:20Mom
01:00:21What are you doing?
01:00:25Did you just break my TV?
01:00:27Can you give us a name
01:00:29For your upcoming film?
01:00:31You know I'm not supposed to do that
01:00:32You've been so kind though
01:00:33Um
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
01:00:43I didn't want you spiraling again
01:00:46I'm not a fragile little girl anymore
01:00:48I need to get on that movie
01:00:50Absolutely not
01:00:51You're not working for your ex-husband
01:00:53If you don't get me an audition
01:00:55Then I will get a manager who will
01:00:57Honey
01:00:57I'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
01:01:06Let him go
01:01:10Mom
01:01:12Honey
01:01:12I
01:01:14You know
01:01:14I just want what's best for you
01:01:16Right?
01:01:17I just don't want to see my little girl hurt again
01:01:21I love you
01:01:23I love you too
01:01:30This is um
01:01:31It's another movie deal
01:01:32I'll tell you about it after
01:01:49Did you get his location?
01:01:51The Oaks
01:01:528pm
01:01:53After I'm done with him
01:01:56Daniel Johnson won't just be blacklisted by Hollywood
01:01:59He'll be erased from Sabrina's life forever
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
01:02:17She'll get one
01:02:20So nice having you back
01:02:22And I don't just mean from the UK
01:02:24Yeah, it's been a rough couple of years, hasn't it?
01:02:27A couple?
01:02:28Daniel, it was 10 years of you slaving away for those people
01:02:32If you can even call them that
01:02:33But you're healthy now
01:02:34And I'm at the top of my career
01:02:37I mean, yeah
01:02:37There was a time that I
01:02:38I love Sabrina
01:02:39But I really thought I could make it work
01:02:42The marriage
01:02:43The kids
01:02:44I mean, we really tried
01:02:45I thought I could make it go for it
01:02:47But um
01:02:49It's over
01:02:51It's over
01:02:52I mean, let her chase whatever fantasy
01:02:54She thinks Preston D's foot can offer
01:03:03Oh
01:03:03You haven't heard?
01:03:06She dumped him
01:03:07It was all over People Magazine
01:03:09She ended it when his star faded
01:03:13Oh my god
01:03:14What?
01:03:20Daniel
01:03:23Stop
01:03:31Sabrina, what are you doing here?
01:03:33I'm here to help you
01:03:34Sabrina
01:03:36You're making a scene
01:03:38Let's go home
01:03:38Sabrina?
01:03:39How could you?
01:03:40I just came to ask Daniel if he'd let you audition
01:03:43But he said no
01:03:44I begged and pleaded
01:03:46Stop lying
01:03:47I saw you bribe the waiter to drug Daniel's drink
01:03:51And I'll bet you called the paparazzi too
01:03:54To catch him drugged out of his mind and ruin him
01:03:57My god
01:03:58You're disgusting
01:03:59I'm a manager, Daniel
01:04:01Not anymore
01:04:02Why did you become such a conniving, scheming snake?
01:04:07I don't even know who you are anymore
01:04:10I'm your mother
01:04:12I only want what's best for you
01:04:15What's best for me?
01:04:18You've been controlling my life ever since you knew you could profit from it
01:04:23That all ends today
01:04:28You're fired
01:04:30Fired
01:04:32No
01:04:35No
01:04:39No
01:04:40No
01:04:41You can't do this to me
01:04:42Please, please, sweetie
01:04:44I have dedicated my life to you
01:04:45You dedicated your life to money
01:04:47And to fame
01:04:50I was just who you used to get to it
01:04:53You think you can survive on sheer talent?
01:04:56There's a thousand girls more talented than you waiting for their shot
01:04:59I made you
01:05:00You'd be nothing without me
01:05:05I think she'll do just fine
01:05:13We're done here, Mom
01:05:15If you want any chance to 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
01:05:37I'm sorry
01:05:39I'm sorry
01:05:39Daniel
01:05:39I'm sorry I took you for granted
01:05:42All of those years
01:05:43I'm sorry I let my mom
01:05:45Manipulate and use you
01:05:47I'm sorry I brought
01:05:49Preston into our home
01:05:51And poisoned our son
01:05:53Towards you
01:05:57Apologize to your father
01:05:58Do I have to?
01:06:00Do I have to?
01:06:01Who raised you?
01:06:03Cared for you?
01:06:06Packed your lunches when I was on set?
01:06:09Laid with you when you had nightmares?
01:06:11And coddled you when you were sick?
01:06:13He did
01:06:14He loved you
01:06:16But you treated him like he was nothing
01:06:18I was wrong
01:06:19Jackson
01:06:20He gave us ten years of his life
01:06:23And we abused it
01:06:24And now there is
01:06:26Nothing we can do to take that back
01:06:29I'm sorry, Dad
01:06:33It's gonna be okay, son
01:06:34I still love you
01:06:36Okay
01:06:38Come on, Jackson
01:06:39Let's go
01:06:45I'm sorry, Daniel
01:06:48For everything
01:06:58I know that look, Daniel
01:07:00You're thinking of going back to them
01:07:02I just didn't know it'd be this hard
01:07:07They hurt you, Daniel
01:07:10They tore you to pieces
01:07:12And then just expected you to come running back
01:07:17People can change
01:07:19But that doesn't change the past
01:07:22And the Oscar goes to
01:07:27Daniel Johnson
01:07:28For his original screenplay
01:07:30Loving Her
01:07:32Daniel!
01:07:33Daniel!
01:07:34Daniel!
01:07:35I'm here, Daniel
01:07:36Daniel, is it true
01:07:37That the script that won you Oscars
01:07:38For both writing and directing
01:07:40Sat on a shelf for ten years?
01:07:42Yes
01:07:42I'll admit I got a little sidelined
01:07:44But, um
01:07:45I think I found my way back
01:07:48But, okay
01:07:49I'll tell you this
01:07:50Um
01:07:51I don't think you can truly love someone else
01:07:55Until
01:07:57You love yourself
01:08:01Way to go, Jen!
