00:00:00All right, here are your appetizers, and your entrees will arrive shortly.
00:00:10She looks like the woman who's been out with Daniel Roth.
00:00:14Daniel Roth? You mean Hollywood's top emerging producer?
00:00:19There's no way she'd work at a place like this.
00:00:22You're right.
00:00:24Ava, what are you doing? Daydreaming?
00:00:27Why haven't you served that table over by the window yet?
00:00:29They've been waiting for 30 minutes.
00:00:32No, no, no. I don't want to hear your excuses.
00:00:34Get it done, or go waste time at a different restaurant.
00:00:43Psst, Ava.
00:00:46Didn't I tell you if I don't call for you, don't show up?
00:00:49I have some news for you. Your husband, Mr. Daniel Roth, I hear he's hosting a banquet here tonight.
00:00:55I think he's even bringing along his cast from his latest production.
00:00:58I know. Today's our anniversary, and I've been supporting him for three years, so tonight I'm going to reveal my true identity.
00:01:07Sam, it's finally my time.
00:01:10Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:11Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:15Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:30I hear you through this entire birthday party just for me.
00:01:39I hear you through this entire birthday party just for me.
00:01:55Yeah.
00:01:56Aren't you worried your wife's gonna find out?
00:01:58Babe, I've been wanting to get rid of her for so long now.
00:02:02Tonight, you're gonna sign those divorce papers.
00:02:05But, babe, I know you've been going through it.
00:02:11So tonight, in front of everybody, I want to tell you.
00:02:14Surprise!
00:02:15Surprise!
00:02:25Surprise!
00:02:27Ava?
00:02:28What are you doing here?
00:02:32Oh, babe.
00:02:33Your standards really were in the gutter.
00:02:36Daniel?
00:02:38What is this?
00:02:39Today's her anniversary.
00:02:40Who is she?
00:02:42Well, since you're already here, meet Sofia, my future.
00:02:48What? I'm your wife!
00:02:53Let's be real.
00:02:54If you hadn't thrown yourself at me, we'd never be married.
00:02:57That's a lie.
00:02:58I was there for you and I supported you when no one else would.
00:03:01God without me, you wouldn't even have your film company.
00:03:04My company?
00:03:05All you did was drain me.
00:03:11Sofia here, she's not only beautiful, but she's smart.
00:03:15She's driven.
00:03:17And she's gonna take our company to the top.
00:03:21What could she possibly do for you?
00:03:23I've just been cast as a lead role in V's new film, Scarlet Dreams.
00:03:28And Daniel's company will be working with the Hollywood elite.
00:03:31You probably don't even know who V is.
00:03:35Oh, I know exactly who V is.
00:03:39And trust me.
00:03:41She would never pick you.
00:03:43I shouldn't pick you.
00:03:53I shouldn't pick you.
00:03:55You really think V would pick you over me?
00:03:58Don't be a sore loser.
00:03:59How are you saying this?
00:04:01She's not even worth Daniel Roth.
00:04:03I know she's talking about big casting.
00:04:05He liars.
00:04:06Exactly.
00:04:07No wonder Daniel's never brought her to an event before.
00:04:09Too embarrassing.
00:04:11Yeah.
00:04:12What spell did she use to leech him off for three years?
00:04:14That's enough, Ava.
00:04:16Stop making a fool of yourself.
00:04:18Let's just sign the divorce papers and be done with it.
00:04:23Hmm?
00:04:25Papers?
00:04:27Grandpa?
00:04:28Listen, everything has been arranged with the Bryant era.
00:04:31As the future of the Katzenberg family, you must secure this alliance.
00:04:36Understood, Grandpa?
00:04:37I won't let you down.
00:04:40There.
00:04:41We're finished.
00:04:42Perfect.
00:04:43And while we're at it, why don't 20 grand consider a payment for three years in my bed?
00:04:51Because that's all three years in my bed.
00:04:54Because that's all you're worth.
00:05:02Oh my god, Daniel, that's Versace!
00:05:04You crazy woman!
00:05:14Who the hell are you?
00:05:23She'll be in a light pink dress.
00:05:24Light pink dress?
00:05:29That must be her.
00:05:32Apologize to the lady.
00:05:34Let go of me!
00:05:36Who are you?
00:05:37I could be calling the cops!
00:05:38This is assault!
00:05:39Be my guest.
00:05:40God!
00:05:41All right!
00:05:42All right!
00:05:43All right!
00:05:44God!
00:05:46Oh, you had me fooled, Ava.
00:05:49Pretending to be a sweet little innocent victim
00:05:52while you were using my money to pay off your side, bitch!
00:05:55You know what?
00:05:56You're absolutely right.
00:05:57And I'm not just keeping him.
00:06:01I'm marrying him.
00:06:02What?
00:06:03I'm Ava.
00:06:04You're one of the actors from Daniel's latest production, right?
00:06:07Look, I'm sorry for dragging you into it.

00:14:32I'm going to help you.
00:15:02God, Ava, what are you doing?
00:15:13Who are they?
00:15:14I'm her.
00:15:15They are my best friend's parents.
00:15:18They come to see if the house needs any repairs, right?
00:15:22And this is?
00:15:23He's, um, um, nice to meet you.
00:15:34I'm, uh, Ava's fiancee.
00:15:36What?
00:15:41Yeah, um, he's my fiancee, William.
00:15:46Ava, what the hell is going on?
00:16:06Mom, look, I don't even know where to start.
00:16:08Okay, let's just say I got myself a husband.
00:16:13You picked up a husband like you pick up a stray dog.
00:16:17Pretty much.
00:16:19Honestly, it's almost like the same thing.
00:16:21Oh, whatever.
00:16:22All right, well, that is not the issue.
00:16:23The real issue is that your father has called the shots in three hours.
00:16:29Daniel, and that shameless bitch's relatives won't even exist.
00:16:33What?
00:16:33No, we're not doing that.
00:16:34Why not?
00:16:36Anyone that harms my girl deserves to rot in hell.
00:16:39Your dad and I will tear them apart and feed them to the wolves.
00:16:43Okay, Mom, you just let me handle my enemies, okay?
00:16:47Tonight at the director, I will make the meat dirt in front of everyone.
00:16:49Trust me, we're not going to let him get away with it.
00:16:58So, William, which family are you from?
00:17:05I, uh, I am...
00:17:09Which family are you from?
00:17:19I, uh, I am...
00:17:26Okay, Dad, he might not have some fancy pedigree.
00:17:32A rising star in the performing arts.
00:17:37A rising star?
00:17:43You'll fall for the lies of these bottom-feeder wannabes.
00:17:47Haven't you had enough of their pathetic ex...
00:17:49And now look where you are.
00:17:53Okay, that's enough.
00:17:54We gotta get going.
00:17:55Let's go.
00:17:56That's okay.
00:17:57Bye.
00:17:57I'm sorry.
00:18:10I know those words hurt.
00:18:12It's fine.
00:18:14You know, the way you treat your best friend's parents...
00:18:17It's like you see them as your own.
00:18:20Uh, my best friend's family owe us, so...
00:18:24Uh, they owe you?
00:18:26Why, why do they owe you?
00:18:28Well, when my friend's family were broke, my parents gave them $10,000.
00:18:34After that, they made it big, so...
00:18:37We just kind of have, like, this special bond.
00:18:41Hmm.
00:18:51Big news!
00:18:52Eminent and elusive Oscar-winning director, known as Director V, winner of last year's Palme d'Or, Golden Lion, and Golden Bear,
00:18:59is set to make a major public appearance this week, and reveal their next film project.
00:19:12Hey, I've got to go run an errand, so I'll, uh, be back later.
00:19:15Oh, I'm heading out too.
00:19:16You want a ride?
00:19:17No, I'm going pretty far.
00:19:18But I'll, uh, see you tonight.
00:19:29This invitation must have fell.
00:19:34Glad I spotted it in time.
00:19:50Ava?
00:19:51Hey!
00:19:52What are you doing here?
00:19:53I, um...
00:19:54I'm meeting a producer for a lunch at the hotel.
00:19:58Oh, what are you doing here?
00:20:00Funny coincidence, uh, a friend recommended me a job here.
00:20:03Oh, that's great.
00:20:05For a moment, I thought you were here for the director's dinner.
00:20:07Oh, God, no.
00:20:08I mean, I'm just a regular housewife.
00:20:10I could never be in the film industry.
00:20:13I mean, I kind of thought you were going.
00:20:15I'd love to, but right now, no fame, no invite.
00:20:19Oh, I mean, don't worry.
00:20:21You'll get there soon enough.
00:20:22You can come with me.
00:20:26Tonight, then.
00:20:28Great.
00:20:42Please go ahead, sir.
00:20:47Please go ahead, man.
00:20:52Oh, shit.
00:20:53Sorry, I think I lost my invitation.
00:20:57Um, can you just make an exception?
00:20:59You lost it?
00:21:00Or you never had one?
00:21:01You seriously think I'm trying to sneak in?
00:21:02Isn't that exactly what you're doing?
00:21:04I've seen hundreds of people like you today.
00:21:06Ava?
00:21:08Where are you?
00:21:09You're stalking us?
00:21:11Take a hint.
00:21:13It's alone.
00:21:14It's like wherever we are, you're just there, stalking us.
00:21:17You guys really think that much of yourselves.
00:21:43What?
00:21:44You really think they're just going to let some housewife into V's banquet?
00:21:48V, you should get over yourself.
00:21:51Daniel dropped a cool one million to get me in.
00:21:56He wouldn't spend a dime on someone like you.
00:21:58Babe, it's just a million.
00:22:00Like, soon, we'll be raking in the big bucks.
00:22:04Billions.
00:22:05Oh, I love the way you say that.
00:22:07Daniel, do share your brand of pillow.
00:22:10And your dreams are real sweet.
00:22:11All right, we and Ava, all right?
00:22:13The divorce papers are signed, and I don't love you anymore.
00:22:17So, leave us alone.
00:22:20Because, frankly, you're disgusting.
00:22:23I'm not going to waste time with lunatics.
00:22:28Oh, shit.
00:22:30Mrs. Ra.
00:22:31You're disgusting.
00:22:32I'm not going to waste time with lunatics.
00:22:39Oh, shit.
00:22:41Mrs. Ra.
00:22:42If you will follow me, please, to the VIP entrance.
00:22:45I'm, um, I'm actually divorced.
00:23:03I'm not Mrs. Roth.
00:23:06You see that one?
00:23:08That's the new Mrs. Roth.
00:23:09All right, Miss Gray.
00:23:10Sure, I'll take care of it.
00:23:12No worries.
00:23:13Just go let the rocks in.
00:23:14No worries.
00:23:15My apologies, Mrs. Roth.
00:23:18Um, I've made a mistake.
00:23:20Let me guide you to the VIP entrance, please.
00:23:22Well, since you apologize so sweetly, I'll let it slide.
00:23:27Oh, babe.
00:23:28Your investment in tuition is incredible.
00:23:31No.
00:23:32You.
00:23:32You're my superstar.
00:23:34She's not here.
00:23:48Yes, I guess.
00:23:52Of course.
00:23:53Why would Ava have an invite?
00:23:57Stupid.
00:23:58Ladies and gentlemen, next up, the world-renowned, mysterious, to be, graces the stage.
00:24:08Next up, the world-renowned, mysterious, director, V graces the stage.
00:24:29V, she feels so familiar.
00:24:36Almost like Ava.
00:24:37Finally, we get to see V in person.
00:24:39I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:24:43It's been three years in her last project.
00:24:45Can't wait to see her next one.
00:24:47This V, I figure it's almost like Ava's.
00:24:52No way.
00:24:53Ava's low-class looks could never compare to V.
00:24:57Yeah, you're right.
00:24:58I've married her for three years.
00:25:00I know her inside and out.
00:25:04She can never compare to V.
00:25:07Idiots.
00:25:08Time to show you how blind you really are.
00:25:13It's too much of a coincidence.
00:25:15I need to check this out.
00:25:17Oh, my God, V.
00:25:23Baby, it's V walking towards me.
00:25:25Is she going to choose me?
00:25:26Of course.
00:25:27I've always said you're my diamond.
00:25:29You're going to get your big break.
00:25:31My investment's going to pay off.
00:25:32Because of the cover.
00:25:41You're going to get your big break.
00:25:43My investment's going to pay off.
00:25:45Because of the cover.
00:25:46Oh, my God.
00:25:49Is V okay?
00:25:50Dammit.
00:25:50Who made these damn stairs?
00:25:52This is going to ruin our chances.
00:25:56Are you okay?
00:25:57William?
00:25:58No, no, no, no.
00:25:58I can't let him know who I am.
00:26:00I am...
00:26:00Hey, no, no, no, wait, wait.
00:26:04No, no, no.
00:26:05It's okay.
00:26:06It's okay.
00:26:06It's okay.
00:26:06It's okay.
00:26:07It's okay.
00:26:12I have seen this bracelet before.
00:26:17I'll be fine after some rest.
00:26:23Ava?
00:26:23Could V...
00:26:25V...
00:26:25V...
00:26:25V...
00:26:25V...
00:26:26V...
00:26:27Ava?
00:26:36Excuse me, Mrs. Roth?
00:26:38That's me.
00:26:39Who are you?
00:26:40Director V wants you to audition with a male actor in room 301.
00:26:46Oh, my God.
00:26:48V wants me to audition.
00:26:49This is going to be my big break.
00:26:51I'm on me.
00:26:52Oh.
00:26:52Everything set?
00:27:05Everything is gone.
00:27:13James?
00:27:14Whoa, whoa, look who it is.
00:27:17Oh, babe, I have missed you since we broke up.
00:27:20Hell yeah.
00:27:22What the hell are you doing here?
00:27:31Well, I...
00:27:31Hmm.
00:27:32Hmm.
00:27:41The audition for Director V starts now.
00:27:44The scene is called The Affair.
00:27:47You must play a couple having a secret meeting while each has their own family.
00:27:51Cameras are set up.
00:27:53Start whenever you're ready.
00:27:56All right.
00:27:57Let's do this.
00:27:59As you wish.
00:28:07Honey.
00:28:09I'm so sorry, Emily.
00:28:11I had to wait forever for my husband to fall asleep so I could come.
00:28:15I hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:28:22I hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:28:29This dream is officially live.
00:28:31Let's add another play to the game.
00:28:33Let's camp up the drama.
00:28:34Oh, this bitch won't leave me alone.
00:28:41This show's about to get good.
00:28:43A really nice day.
00:28:46Didn't talk about anything.
00:28:47You...
00:28:52Her husband finds out.
00:28:58Don't talk about him.
00:29:01MOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo
00:29:07You BITCH!
00:29:18You BITCH!
00:29:19Daniel...
00:29:20No, no, it's not the fault
00:29:21No, Daniel, stop!
00:29:22Shut the hell up!
00:29:23It's a misunderstanding, okay?
00:29:25This is an audition!
00:29:26You expect me to believe that?
00:29:27You're auditioning, you're acting, while you're naked in this room, kissing your ex!
00:29:32Please, it's just for V, okay? She asked me to audition.
00:29:35James, he's an actor, too. He's helping with the audition, please!
00:29:37Why are you stripping for an audition?
00:29:40Who sent the script, you asshole? Come on!
00:29:43It's an affair, okay?
00:29:45We're just, I'm an audition. It's for the audition.
00:29:48You really think he could intimidate me?
00:29:52I'm doing this for your company. I'm doing this for V.
00:29:56Save it, alright?
00:29:57Why don't you hear? Where is she?
00:30:00I mean, all your talent, you think she would notice you by now?
00:30:04What a melodramatic twist within a twist.
00:30:08Is it New V Project?
00:30:09Fuck up! You know that if it wasn't for me, you'd come to be underground!
00:30:14Oh, now the truth is coming out, isn't it?
00:30:16You thought you could sleep with your ex without me finding out.
00:30:21Oh, and you're so perfect!
00:30:23You cheating on your wife with me, you asshole!
00:30:26What the fuck?
00:30:36What the fuck?
00:30:37This doesn't look like acting.
00:30:48Yeah.
00:30:49This feels way too real.
00:30:52Wait a minute, isn't that Ava's new husband?
00:30:54And his new girlfriend?
00:30:56What the fuck?
00:30:58Yeah, you want again?
00:30:59Wait a second.
00:31:16Geez, this is the next level of violence, Art.
00:31:21Yeah, maybe we're seeing V's new direction?
00:31:24Wait a second.
00:31:25This is clearly revenge.
00:31:27The live stream of Ava's ex and his mistress.
00:31:29Could it be Ava's actually dream?
00:31:40Wait!
00:31:41Stop!
00:31:42Stop!
00:31:43I was paid to be here, to play along.
00:31:46I don't think V has anything to do with this.
00:31:48What?
00:31:50It's blowing up on TikTok.
00:31:51Well, that's a nice surprise.
00:31:55Who even played?
00:31:56Who's behind this?
00:31:57Who's posting this online?
00:31:59Ava?
00:32:01You...
00:32:03You set me up!
00:32:04Back off.
00:32:05You posted this?
00:32:06You humiliated us?
00:32:08Humiliated?
00:32:09Daniel, did you ever care?
00:32:10Because I didn't see any of that in the video.
00:32:12Hey, wasn't this your big break into the street?
00:32:14Now the whole world knows you.
00:32:16Guess you're famous, huh?
00:32:17You were gonna pay for this!
00:32:19Run!
00:32:20Security!
00:32:21They're fighting!
00:32:22Daniel!
00:32:23Whoa!
00:32:24Whoa!
00:32:25Three years of marriage and I've never felt so protected.
00:32:44Ladies and gentlemen, due to an emergency, V will be unable to meet if...
00:32:48event is over.
00:32:50No!
00:32:51Please stay tuned for more information.
00:32:53Ticket money down the drain!
00:32:55That was gonna be my big break!
00:32:57I was just hoping for a signed picture.
00:32:59I just wanna see what amazing director looked like.
00:33:04Hey, hey, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, wait, wait.
00:33:07What is up with that video online?
00:33:09What video?
00:33:10The video of your ex and that woman.
00:33:12Why is it posted from V's account?
00:33:14Why is V trying to take them down?
00:33:16Are you...
00:33:17Okay, okay.
00:33:20Look.
00:33:21That's because I'm...
00:33:25Sorry.
00:33:27Yeah?
00:33:28Sir, we've uncovered Ava's real identity.
00:33:37We dug into it.
00:33:38Turns out Miss Ava's just a regular housewife.
00:33:41Got it.
00:33:45I'm sorry.
00:33:46I overreacted.
00:33:47I guess, with us about to marry, I just realized how little I really know about you.
00:33:53And it just scared me a little bit.
00:33:55About to marry?
00:33:56We're just in a contract marriage, aren't we?
00:33:59Yeah, I mean, but you could say all marriage is a contract.
00:34:04And I thought we were so much more.
00:34:07You mean a lot to me, Ava.
00:34:09And I thought you could feel it too.
00:34:12I never got to thank you for rescuing me last night.
00:34:15If you hadn't stood up to Daniel, I might be in the hospital right now.
00:34:19I mean, in such a short time, you've given me care and protection that I never had in my marriage.
00:34:29If anyone hurts my fiancee, I'll make them regret it.
00:34:34Sorry to interrupt the sir.
00:34:36But the master wants to see you.
00:34:37Hey, wait.
00:34:38Who are you?
00:34:39I should persuade Ava to cooperate.
00:34:40My grand...
00:34:41There's a lot I need to explain.
00:34:42Okay.
00:34:43Okay.
00:34:44Okay.
00:34:45Okay.
00:34:46Okay.
00:34:47Now.
00:34:48What?
00:34:49What?
00:34:50What?
00:34:51Oh.
00:34:52Yeah.
00:34:53Oh.
00:34:54Yeah.
00:34:55Why am I the only one allowed in?
00:34:56Why can't William come?
00:34:57Why can't William come?
00:34:58Because to me, he's just a fool.
00:34:59How dare you say he's just a fool.
00:35:00How dare you say that about him?
00:35:01He owes you money.
00:35:02Right?
00:35:03Right?
00:35:04What if I said yes?
00:35:05How much?
00:35:06Tell me and I'll pay it off for him.
00:35:07Pay it off?
00:35:08It's no sign.
00:35:09I'll pay it off.
00:35:10It's no sign.
00:35:11I'll pay it off.
00:35:12I'll pay it off.
00:35:13I'll pay it off.
00:35:14It's no sign.
00:35:15I'll pay it off.
00:35:16It's no sign.
00:35:17What?
00:35:18I don't pay my sake.
00:35:19Oh, yeah.
00:35:20Why am I the only one allowed in?
00:35:24Why can't William come?
00:35:25Because to me, he's just a fool.
00:35:28How dare you say that about him?
00:35:30He owes you money.
00:35:31Right?
00:35:32What if I said yes?
00:35:33How much?
00:35:34Tell me and I'll pay it off for him.
00:35:35Pay it off?
00:35:36It's no smaller man. How much? Well, one million
00:35:47One million
00:35:49That's it
00:35:50What just a million you don't know the future one million is just the interest
00:35:56The principal sum is ten million ten million
00:36:00What did he borrow that kind of money for? I don't care. I just want to know if you can pay it off
00:36:06I can
00:36:11You're a liar
00:36:13Not only are you broke
00:36:16But you're lying
00:36:18You're a divorced woman
00:36:20You've been divorced for three years. You've been waiting tables
00:36:24What savings could you possibly have accumulated? How did you know I was divorced?
00:36:30Did you investigate me?
00:36:32Yes, I did in our line of work
00:36:34Information is everything no matter who the debtor is where they are or they're with I know everything
00:36:41Did you investigate me? Yes, I did in our line of work
00:36:54Information is everything no matter who the debtor is where they are or who they're with I know everything
00:37:01Try digging a little deeper
00:37:03My cheating ex is a CEO of a listed company and the divorce settlement
00:37:09It's hefty
00:37:12What?
00:37:13You've paid eleven million dollars for William?
00:37:17Why did you pay such a for that scumbag maybe to you?
00:37:20He's just a broke when I needed him. He was there money's one thing, but William
00:37:27He's worth more than all of it
00:37:29Geez
00:37:33It's as if destiny is pulling strings
00:37:38How did William meet someone this perfect?
00:37:42Her ex must be a total jerk
00:37:48Pull every single penny out of Daniel Roth's investments now
00:37:59Ava, are you okay?
00:38:00I'm fine
00:38:02You need to learn how to be a good man
00:38:02Ava, are you okay?
00:38:04I'm fine
00:38:05You need to learn how to be a good man
00:38:06What?
00:38:08You need to learn how to be a good man.
00:38:13What?
00:38:21Why did Katzenberg pull out?
00:38:23We've been working with them for years.
00:38:25I don't know, could it be because of the live stream video?
00:38:28I mean, it has to be.
00:38:30This is all on Ava.
00:38:32I... I...
00:38:34I'm gonna kill her, I swear.
00:38:36I hope you do.
00:38:38I mean, with Katzenberg gone, we're missing an 80% funding gap.
00:38:43We may as well file for bankruptcy.
00:38:45Oh, Daniel, please, calm down.
00:38:48I've just gotten word that Fi's hosting auditions for her new film tomorrow.
00:38:52So, if I can get her approval...
00:38:56Well, then you, as the face of our company,
00:39:00you'll skyrocket like a price.
00:39:02Katzenberg will be begging for shares.
00:39:05Oh, you genius!
00:39:08Sam?
00:39:13Miss, the casting call is tomorrow.
00:39:16I just heard.
00:39:17Katzenberg pulled all investments from Daniel's company.
00:39:20They'll be bankrupt by the month's end.
00:39:22Even so, I've got one last strike for this idiot.
00:39:26What do you mean?
00:39:27Have Cameron contact Sofia.
00:39:29She can buy a role in my new film.
00:39:31I'm just too nervous. I can't get into any of the emotional scenes.
00:39:43Do you like baking?
00:39:44I'm just too nervous. I can't get into any of the emotional scenes.
00:39:57I'm just too nervous.
00:39:58Do you like baking?
00:39:59Do you like baking?
00:40:00Do you like baking?
00:40:02Do you like baking?
00:40:03Do you like baking?
00:40:04Do you like baking?
00:40:05Do you like baking?
00:40:06Do you like baking?
00:40:07Do you like baking?
00:40:08Do you like baking?
00:40:09Do you like baking?
00:40:10Do you like baking?
00:40:11Do you like baking?
00:40:12Do you like baking?
00:40:13Do you like baking?
00:40:14Do you like baking?
00:40:15Do you like baking?
00:40:16Do you like baking?
00:40:17Do you like baking?
00:40:18Do you like baking?
00:40:19Do you like baking?
00:40:20Do you like baking?
00:40:21Sorry, I'm Ty and Cameron, the producer of his movie.
00:40:35So once I pay, Sophie's got the role, right?
00:41:04Of course.
00:41:16This is perfect.
00:41:18What's going on?
00:41:19Uh, nothing.
00:41:20Capes?
00:41:21Yeah.
00:41:22Okay, I think we might have had like a little bit too much.
00:41:34No, you're not even tipsy.
00:41:36And I'm fine.
00:41:38Alright, then maybe we should drink some more then.
00:41:40Yeah, sure thing.
00:41:42Can I kiss you?
00:41:54You should probably take that.
00:42:08Aww.
00:42:09Why the hell?
00:42:11How many times I was just trying to feel it?
00:42:16Hmm.
00:42:17Well, look at you back in character.
00:42:20I think my job here is done.
00:42:23Time to get some sleep and get the showers.
00:42:26Wow, Ava, you're stunning.
00:42:43No one would believe that director V and the richest heiress in town are actually the same
00:42:48person.
00:42:49Well, you know I never cared for the public perception, but God, I can't wait to see Daniel
00:42:54and Sophia's faces when they find out the truth.
00:43:02Hello?
00:43:04Ava, can you do me a favor?
00:43:07What's wrong?
00:43:08Has something happened?
00:43:09No, I'm just a little worried about the emotional scenes today.
00:43:13Could you be my partner and help me run through it?
00:43:18Uh, um, uh...
00:43:27Could you be my partner?
00:43:29Uh, um, alright, um, yeah, no, I mean, of course.
00:43:33I'll go with you.
00:43:34Ava, thank you.
00:43:36I'll send you the location for casting.
00:43:38Yeah, okay, bye.
00:43:41Ava, where are you going?
00:43:46If you leave, who will run the casting?
00:43:49Who will choose the actors?
00:43:51Okay.
00:43:54You'll hit me.
00:43:55Me?
00:43:56Me?
00:44:10Fuck!
00:44:11Ava!
00:44:12What are they doing here?
00:44:13First she ruins my company, now she wants to ruin the audition.
00:44:17Alright, let's get this casting underway.
00:44:20I can't love you anymore.
00:44:33Please.
00:44:34Please.
00:44:35Let me go.
00:44:36Let us bury out love in the past.
00:44:39And never look back.
00:44:44Cut.
00:44:46Next.
00:44:48What's going on?
00:44:49I didn't finish my lines.
00:44:51That's enough.
00:44:52He gave me zero emotion.
00:44:54I put my heart into that scene.
00:44:55He gave me nothing!
00:44:56If you have a complaint, feel free to file a complaint form.
00:45:00But for now, please leave the audition area.
00:45:06Her acting.
00:45:09Makes me want to puke.
00:45:12Next.
00:45:14That's our turn.
00:45:15Hey.
00:45:17You got this.
00:45:21Whoa!
00:45:22Sorry.
00:45:23This woman is not an actress.
00:45:25She has no right to audition.
00:45:36What's going on here?
00:45:37It's simple.
00:45:39I brought my fiancé to audition.
00:45:41It'll help me give a better performance.
00:45:44This is V's casting.
00:45:45Come on.
00:45:46Only pros allowed.
00:45:47You just gonna let some untrained housewife sneak her way in?
00:45:50Once this leaks, V's reputation will be ruined.
00:45:54And you'll be fired.
00:45:55Sofia, you are not V.
00:45:57How could you know what she cares about?
00:46:00What does it matter if she's a pro?
00:46:03Training doesn't guarantee impact.
00:46:07You can still touch hearts as long as you're feeling and in the role.
00:46:13That's what a true actor does.
00:46:20All right.
00:46:25You're up.
00:46:30You know, you say you love me, but...
00:46:33I mean, you don't even know who I am.
00:46:36Can you really love someone you barely know?
00:46:38Who that I can't?
00:46:40I can see your strength.
00:46:43Your kindness and the vulnerability beneath it.
00:46:45I mean, I feel your pain and see your scars.
00:46:49I know we've only known each other a short time, but I feel like I see you better than I see myself.
00:46:56And I love you.
00:46:59Before you go, can you kiss me once more?
00:47:01Can you kiss me once more?
00:47:15Bitch really knows how to fake it.
00:47:18Now for the official casting results.
00:47:23It's a good thing we've got a backup.
00:47:25I think we've got a backup plan.
00:47:35Who cares about acting?
00:47:37Yeah. I mean, acting is nothing really. Money is how you get the role.
00:47:41Money is how you get the role.
00:47:44Eto'o.
00:47:47Effie.
00:47:48Kevin.
00:47:50William.
00:47:52Oh my God, what? That's incredible!
00:47:54William, you're amazing.
00:47:56Why am I not on this list?
00:47:58They're still going, okay?
00:48:00It's okay.
00:48:02Last, Ava.
00:48:03What?!
00:48:05Ava, you got in as well.
00:48:07Yeah.
00:48:11This isn't fair! The Lisbon chair was wet!
00:48:14There is cheating going on in this casting!
00:48:17Where's your proof?
00:48:18Without anything to back it up, that's slandering.
00:48:21Proof?
00:48:23Well, um, I paid 50 million to the producer to get her a role.
00:48:27Yeah, and they've already taken the money, so if I don't get the lead role, we're suing!
00:48:36So if I don't get the lead role, we're suing!
00:48:38Oh, is that so? You know, it's funny you say that, because I haven't heard anything about it.
00:48:45Wait, what are you talking about?
00:48:47Ava, I need to tell you something.
00:48:49Um, I am actually an investor in the film.
00:48:56William, please don't get carried over it.
00:48:58No, it's true, okay? I'll prove it to you.
00:49:00Prove it?! You're just some nobody pretending to be some film investor?!
00:49:04Film investor?!
00:49:05You know how many millions it's going to take to make this movie!
00:49:12Wait, wait a minute.
00:49:14Is that a Katzenberg black card?
00:49:16My full name is William Katzenberg.
00:49:33Oh, you have lost it now, haven't you?
00:49:36A washed-up actor trying to use a prop as the real card.
00:49:42The Katzenbergs are the top three family in America.
00:49:46Got connections everywhere, and this nobody is pretending to be one!
00:49:50Mr. Katzenberg has arrived.
00:49:54Katzenberg? Oh my God, he's William's creditor.
00:49:57Oh shit!
00:49:59Grandpa? Why is he here?
00:50:00Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:01Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:07Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:09Mr. Jen!
00:50:10Mr. Jen!
00:50:11It is a pleasure to see you.
00:50:12Daniel, what are you doing here?
00:50:13Have you got that funding issue sorted yet?
00:50:16We're working.
00:50:17May I ask, why did the Katzenbergs drop out of our project?
00:50:19Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:22Mr. Jen!
00:50:23I'm sorry.
00:50:24I'm sorry.
00:50:26No, I'm sorry.
00:50:27I'm sorry.
00:50:28I'm sorry.
00:50:29No, you're sorry.
00:50:30I'm sorry.
00:50:31I'm sorry.
00:50:32No, I'm sorry.
00:50:33No, I'm sorry.
00:50:34No, I'm sorry.
00:50:35No, I'm sorry.
00:50:36No, I'm sorry.
00:50:37No, I'm sorry.
00:50:38No, I'm sorry.
00:50:39drop out of our project?
00:50:40We don't want the people abusing the Katzenberg name.
00:50:43What?
00:50:44Wait, wait, wait.
00:50:44Well, as a matter of fact, you came at the perfect time.
00:50:47Because somebody here is using the Katzenberg name.
00:50:51Oh, now you have my attention.
00:50:53And I'm very curious.
00:50:55Who's got the guts to pull that off?
00:50:58Him.
00:51:05Sir?
00:51:09Hey, what the hell?
00:51:14You're chasing me down now?
00:51:16I already paid you back.
00:51:25I already paid you back.
00:51:27Ava, what do you mean you paid back my grandfather?
00:51:29I already paid.
00:51:30Wait, are you calling him your grandfather?
00:51:33This is my grandson, William Katzberg.
00:51:38Official heir to the Katzenberg family fortune.
00:51:41What does this mean?
00:51:43Is this true?
00:51:44No, no, no, no, no.
00:51:45This, this can't be.
00:51:46What?
00:51:47Daniel, I don't need your opinion on how to choose an heir.
00:51:51Oh, so this is how it is.
00:51:55Well, the Katzenbergs are using their movies
00:51:58to launder their dirty money.
00:52:00Hey, hey, you watch your mouth.
00:52:02Slandering us like that will land you in prison.
00:52:05Daniel, before you jump to conclusions,
00:52:08there's someone I'd like you to meet.
00:52:14Cameron?
00:52:17Wait, Ava, you, you know him?
00:52:18You two have been working together this whole time?
00:52:21Karen, how dare you impersonate V's producer?
00:52:35Sorry, I'm not impersonating anybody.
00:52:38I am V's producer.
00:52:40Then why are you working with this bitch?
00:52:42What's in it for you?
00:52:44I told you that I'm V's producer.
00:52:47And you know what?
00:52:48I take my odors from her.
00:52:52What are you talking about?
00:52:54Honestly, like, who even is V?
00:52:56I mean, I don't know her.
00:52:58I've got no beef with her.
00:53:00So why would she send you to ruin me?
00:53:03Right, so you would like me to unlift it all
00:53:07and reveal who V is today.
00:53:11Well, Ava, is that okay?
00:53:13Yeah.
00:53:15In the flesh.
00:53:16That's correct.
00:53:18This is the mysterious,
00:53:19the fabulous, the fearless, V.
00:53:24And she's also the heiress
00:53:26of the green family fortune.
00:53:28Oh, it's V.
00:53:29Well, I'm finally seeing V in person.
00:53:32Famous director and heiress.
00:53:34V's got the perfect life.
00:53:37And I'm not even sure if I can.
00:53:39I'm not even sure if I can.
00:53:40I'm not even sure if I can.
00:53:41And I'm not even sure if I can.
00:53:42I can't.
00:53:43I can't.
00:53:44And I can't.
00:53:45No, no, no, she can't be.
00:53:46That's impossible.
00:53:47You idiot.
00:53:48You stupid idiot.
00:53:49I tried.
00:53:50I could have been with Ava.
00:53:51I swear, I swear I am going to kill you.
00:53:53You wanna try?
00:53:54I'm crazy I'm going to kill you.
00:53:55FBI, everyone free.
00:53:58Everyone free.
00:54:02Okay.
00:54:03But I'm not even sure if I can.
00:54:04What are you doing here?
00:54:11Daniel, we have proof of your embezzlement.
00:54:13From here on out, you have the right to remain silent.
00:54:14Anything you say will be used against you in court.
00:54:19What are you talking about?
00:54:21I...
00:54:21Who told you?
00:54:23Who do you think?
00:54:26You.
00:54:28Get them out of here.
00:54:29Go of me!
00:54:30Let go!
00:54:31Fuck you!
00:54:33Hey.
00:54:34Get off me!
00:54:43Get off!
00:54:44Ava, so you're not only V, but the Green family fortune heiress.
00:54:49I mean, I knew something was off.
00:54:53Yes, okay, I haven't been completely honest with you, but...
00:54:56And you haven't been very truthful to me either, right?
00:55:01I've wanted to be honest.
00:55:02But do you know how lies can talk on top of each other?
00:55:06Look, it's all over now.
00:55:07I'm sorry, but I can't move past this.
00:55:09If we can't even be honest with each other, then maybe...
00:55:12Maybe it's time we cool off.
00:55:16Thank you, Frank.
00:55:22You can do this.
00:55:43You can do this.
00:55:43Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
00:56:04You can do this.
00:56:34Ava.
00:56:40Please don't go.
00:57:00Ava?
00:57:01Leaving us already?
00:57:04Can't you stay a few more days just to be with us?
00:57:08Mom, I've just, I've been through too much lately and I'm exhausted.
00:57:13I need to clear my head. I'm exhausted.
00:57:17Don't let anyone hold you back. You deserve a bigger world.
00:57:24Maybe you'll find somebody better for you.
00:57:26No, no. I have been fooled too many times and I think, I just, I don't trust any guy anymore.
00:57:32If you end up with a woman, that's okay too.
00:57:35As long as you're happy.
00:57:37Mom, trust and orientation are completely different things.
00:57:40A guy with eight pack abs.
00:57:45Anyway, my driver, I'll, um, I'll see you in a bit.
00:57:49Oh, she's so cute.
00:57:53Good luck, baby.
00:57:54Love you.
00:58:02Oh, she's leaving us.
00:58:03Oh, she's leaving us.
00:58:11Let's go.
00:58:12Ava Green.
00:58:14Long time.
00:58:15You'll see.
00:58:16...
00:58:17...
00:58:29Leetter...
00:58:32...
00:58:37Can you guess me once more?
00:58:50William.
00:58:55William, I'll admit it.
00:58:56Like I was with my ex.
00:58:58Walking away from way harder.
00:59:00But without me, can you still feel that spark?
00:59:03Hey, Henry, why haven't we set off yet?
00:59:08We're going to be late.
00:59:10Hey.
00:59:15Sophia, what the hell are you doing here?
00:59:18Let's save the chat till later.
00:59:33You crazy bitch.
00:59:57Do you even realize what you're doing is a crime?
01:00:00Fuck me.
01:00:03Everything is your fault, even.
01:00:06You have a reason Daniel's in prison.
01:00:08You fucked up my entire life!
01:00:11Sophia, listen to me.
01:00:13You brought all of this on himself.
01:00:14You've just been too blinded by him.
01:00:16Okay, you just need to calm down.
01:00:18Shut up.
01:00:19Shut the fuck up!
01:00:22I'm going to take you to hell.
01:00:23I'm going to take you to hell.
01:00:27I'm going to take you to hell.
01:00:28I'm going to take you to hell.
01:00:52I'm going to take you to hell.
01:00:56Damn world, huh?
01:00:59Say goodbye.
01:01:03No!
01:01:14Damn world.
01:01:16Say goodbye.
01:01:20Give it up, Ava.
01:01:22I'm burning everything to the ground.
01:01:25Ahh!
01:01:28Ahh!
01:01:29Ahh!
01:01:39Ahh!
01:01:45Ahh!
01:01:50Ahh!
01:01:51The show must go on.
01:02:21The show must go on.
01:02:28Ava?
01:02:33William!
01:02:34Hey, hang on, okay?
01:02:35I'm gonna call an ambulance.
01:02:37Please, just stay with me, okay?
01:02:39You're gonna be okay.
01:02:42Vee, Vee, come here, Vee, please.
01:02:51Just here, Vee, Vee.
01:02:53Vee, what was the inspiration for your latest show?
01:02:55Is it true that the movie was based on real events?
01:02:58Miss Vee, over here.
01:03:01Vee, you are looking stunning tonight as always.
01:03:06The question everybody's hearing, is Vee alone at this big premiere?
01:03:12Well, I was supposed to be accompanied by a very special person tonight.
01:03:16And where is that special someone?
01:03:19He...
01:03:20Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
01:03:21He...
01:03:22Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
01:03:23And where is that special someone?
01:03:25He...
01:03:26Ah...
01:03:27Ha-ha-ha-ha!
01:03:28Who is that special someone?
01:03:29He...
01:03:30Ah...
01:03:31cheer...
01:03:32That's the-
01:03:33A-ha-ha-ha!
01:03:34Hello!
01:03:37A-ha-ha-ha-ha!
01:03:41Congratulations, Eva.
01:03:42Congratulations, Ava. Or should I say V.
01:03:46It's quite the turnout tonight.
01:03:49It'll be no surprise that your new film is another hit.
01:03:52So I thought I'd surprise you in a different way.
01:03:59Ava, since we've met, we've been through so much together,
01:04:03even flirting with death.
01:04:06On the day of your movie premiere, and on your very special day,
01:04:10I have to ask.
01:04:15Will you marry me?
01:04:17William.
01:04:28You have to marry me.
01:04:40William.
