00:00:00All right, here are your appetizers and your entrees will arrive shortly.
00:00:09She looks like the woman who's been out with Daniel Ross.
00:00:13Daniel Ross? You mean Hollywood's top emerging producer?
00:00:18There's no way she'd work at a place like this.
00:00:21You're right.
00:00:23Ava, what are you doing? Daydreaming?
00:00:26Why haven't you served that table over by the window yet?
00:00:29They've been waiting for 30 minutes.
00:00:31No, no, no. I don't want to hear your excuses.
00:00:33Get it done or go waste time at a different restaurant.
00:00:42Psst, Ava.
00:00:46Didn't I tell you if I don't call for you, don't show up?
00:00:48I have some news for you. Your husband, Mr. Daniel Ross?
00:00:52I 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.
00:01:02So 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.
00:01:17Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:30Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:45I've been through this entire birthday party just for me.
00:01:55Aren't you worried your wife's going to find out?
00:01:58Babe, I've been wanting to get rid of her for so long now.
00:02:02Tonight, she's going to sign those divorce papers.
00:02:05But babe, I know you've been going through.
00:02:10So tonight, in front of everybody, I want to tell you.
00:02:14Surprise!
00:02:21Surprise!
00:02:23Ava? What are you doing here?
00:02:28Oh, babe. I see that your standards really were in the gutter.
00:02:33Daniel? What is this?
00:02:36Today's her anniversary. Who is she?
00:02:39Well, since you're already here, meet Sophia, my future.
00:02:45What? I'm your wife!
00:02:50Let's be real. If you hadn't thrown yourself at me, we'd never be married.
00:02:54That's a lie. I was there for you and I supported you when no one else would.
00:02:58That without me, you wouldn't even have your film company.
00:03:00My company?
00:03:01Huh? All you did was drain me.
00:03:08Sophia here, she's not only beautiful, but she's smart.
00:03:12She's driven.
00:03:14And she's going to take our company to the top.
00:03:16What could she possibly do for you, Bob?
00:03:20I've just been cast as the lead role in V's new film, Scarlet Dreams.
00:03:24And Daniel's company will be working with the Hollywood elite.
00:03:28You probably don't even know who V is.
00:03:33Oh, I know exactly who V is.
00:03:35And trust me, she would never pick you.
00:03:46She'd never pick you.
00:03:48You really think V would pick you over me?
00:03:51Don't be a sorely, Sarah.
00:03:53How are you saying this?
00:03:56She's not even worth Daniel Roth.
00:03:58I know she's talking about becasting.
00:03:59He lies.
00:04:00Exactly.
00:04:01No wonder Daniel's never brought her to an event before.
00:04:04Too embarrassing.
00:04:05Yeah.
00:04:05What spell did she use to leech him off for years?
00:04:08That's enough, Ava.
00:04:10Stop making a fool of yourself.
00:04:13Let's just sign the divorce papers and be done with it.
00:04:16Hmm?
00:04:19Papers.
00:04:22Grandpa.
00:04:22Listen, everything has been arranged with the Bryant heiress.
00:04:26As the future of the Katzenberg family, you must secure this alliance.
00:04:30Understood, Grandpa.
00:04:32I won't let you down.
00:04:34There.
00:04:35We're finished.
00:04:36Perfect.
00:04:38And while we're at it, why don't you have 20 grand?
00:04:43Consider a payment for three years in my bed.
00:04:46Because that's all you're worth.
00:04:52Oh my god damn you, that's Versace.
00:04:55You crazy woman!
00:05:02You crazy woman!
00:05:05Who the hell are you?
00:05:07She'll be in a light pink dress.
00:05:13Light pink dress?
00:05:17That must be her.
00:05:21Apologize to the lady.
00:05:22Let go of me!
00:05:24Who are you?
00:05:25I could be calling the cops!
00:05:26This is assault!
00:05:28Be my guest.
00:05:29God!
00:05:30All right!
00:05:31All right!
00:05:31All right!
00:05:32God!
00:05:35Oh, you had me fooled, Ava.
00:05:38Pretending to be a sweet little innocent victim
00:05:41while you were using my money to pay off your side, bitch!
00:05:44You know what?
00:05:45You're absolutely right.
00:05:46And I'm not just keeping him.
00:05:48I'm marrying him.
00:05:59What?
00:06:05I'm Ava.
00:06:06You're one of the actors from Daniel's latest production, right?
00:06:09Look, I'm sorry for dragging you into it.
00:06:12Actor?
00:06:12I, uh...
00:06:13Okay, let's just cut to the chase.
00:06:15I would like to hire you to play my fiancé.
00:06:17Just name your price.
00:06:19Excuse me?
00:06:20Oh, come on.
00:06:21I mean, you wouldn't be taking gigs like this
00:06:23unless you needed the money, right?
00:06:26William.
00:06:30Um, you know, funnily enough,
00:06:33I'm in the market for a contract bride.
00:06:36Let's call it a mutual benefit.
00:06:38Perfect.
00:06:39Starting now, you're officially my fiancé.
00:06:47Um, should...
00:06:50Should we...
00:06:52There you go.
00:06:58Hey, Grandpa.
00:07:20Uh, did you change the gate passcode?
00:07:21I can't get in.
00:07:22That's the idea.
00:07:24How many times did I tell you not to screw this up?
00:07:27Miss Bryan told me you never even showed up to meet her.
00:07:31Wait, what?
00:07:37So, she's not Miss Bryan.
00:07:39Three years.
00:07:59Finally back.
00:08:05Hello?
00:08:06Hey, it's me.
00:08:09Oh, um, hey.
00:08:11Uh, what's up?
00:08:13I think you could do me a favor.
00:08:17Hi.
00:08:23Hey.
00:08:25Um, so what's this about suddenly having nowhere to stay?
00:08:28Well, uh, um, I've been out of work.
00:08:34I couldn't pay my rent.
00:08:36So, landlord kicked me out.
00:08:39Thanks for letting me crash.
00:08:42Come on.
00:08:52You live here.
00:08:55Don't tell me you're secretly loaded.
00:08:57Uh, don't tell me you're secretly loaded.
00:09:07Uh, no.
00:09:09This belongs to a friend who married into money overseas.
00:09:12I'm just half-sitting.
00:09:13Oh.
00:09:15Uh, make yourself comfortable and I'll fix something to eat.
00:09:20Yeah.
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:21Yeah.
00:09:27Tim, I totally forgot it's been three years.
00:09:33Three years since what?
00:09:34Ah!
00:09:34Oh!
00:09:35Um, so the fridge is empty.
00:09:51Yeah.
00:09:53Do you want pizza?
00:09:57Yeah.
00:09:58Yeah.
00:09:59Pizza works.
00:09:59All right.
00:10:03Um.
00:10:04Um.
00:10:07I'll go make an order.
00:10:09Right.
00:10:09Okay.
00:10:12Oh, you're...
00:10:14Hey, Peter.
00:10:28Run a check on this girl.
00:10:35Oh, my God.
00:10:37Mike.
00:10:38What?
00:10:38Ava has just told me that Daniel has divorced her.
00:10:41What the?
00:10:44I told you that bastard Daniel was no good for her.
00:10:49I swear if he hurt my Ava, that's it.
00:10:54Him and his company are dead.
00:10:56Hear me?
00:10:57They're dead.
00:10:57He's dead.
00:11:14Hey.
00:11:15You okay?
00:11:17Um.
00:11:19It's my stomach.
00:11:21Here.
00:11:21Let's get you down.
00:11:26Hey.
00:11:26I know you're the first person who's taking care of me like this, other than my parents.
00:11:56Do you think you ate something bad?
00:12:00It's just an allergy.
00:12:02I probably should have checked if the pizza had any soy before eating like half of it.
00:12:08But I'll be fine after some rest.
00:12:11Okay.
00:12:22What are you doing?
00:12:26Um, you said you needed some rest.
00:12:28I'm taking you to bed.
00:12:29It's okay.
00:12:30I can walk by myself.
00:12:31No, you can't.
00:12:32No, you can't.
00:12:34No, you can't.
00:12:35No, you can't.
00:12:37No, you can't.
00:12:38No, you can't.
00:12:39Okay.
00:12:40Alright.
00:12:46Okay.
00:12:48What?
00:13:00Nice.
00:13:18Oh
00:13:48You're awake?
00:13:50Yeah, I am. I just got up
00:13:56Do you have an apron?
00:13:58Or you also get hot?
00:14:02Of course.
00:14:04Just let me help you
00:14:18Hmm
00:14:26Oh
00:14:38Oh God! Eva!
00:14:40What are you doing?
00:14:42Who are they?
00:14:48I'm her!
00:14:50They are my best friend's parents
00:14:52They've come to see if the house needs any repairs
00:14:54Right?
00:14:56And this is?
00:15:00He's um
00:15:02Um
00:15:06Nice to meet you
00:15:08I'm uh
00:15:10Eva's fiancee
00:15:11What?
00:15:16Yeah
00:15:17Um
00:15:18He's my fiancee
00:15:20William
00:15:39Eva!
00:15:40What the hell is going on?
00:15:42Mom, look, I don't even know where to start
00:15:44Okay, let's just say
00:15:46I got myself a husband
00:15:49You picked up a husband like you pick up a stray dog
00:15:53Pretty much
00:15:54Honestly, it's almost like the same thing
00:15:57Whatever, alright, well that is not the issue
00:15:59The real issue
00:16:00The real issue is that your father has called the shots
00:16:03In three hours
00:16:04Daniel
00:16:05And that shameless bitches' relatives won't even exist
00:16:08What?
00:16:09No, we're not doing that
00:16:10Why not?
00:16:11Anyone that harms my girl deserves to rot in hell
00:16:14Your dad and I will tear them apart and feed them to the wolves
00:16:18Okay, mom
00:16:19You just
00:16:20Let me handle my enemies
00:16:21Okay?
00:16:22Tonight at the director's dinner
00:16:23I will make the meat dirt in front of everyone
00:16:27Trust me
00:16:28We're not gonna let him get away with it
00:16:30So, William
00:16:36Which family are you from?
00:16:41I, uh
00:16:44I am
00:16:50Which family are you from?
00:16:54I, uh
00:16:55I am
00:16:59Okay, dad
00:17:00He might not have some fancy pedigree
00:17:04But he's a real go-getter
00:17:06A rising star in the performing arts
00:17:11A rising star?
00:17:14Ava
00:17:16How can you still fall for the lies of these bottom feeder wannabes?
00:17:21Haven't you had enough of their pathetic excuses?
00:17:23You didn't listen to us before
00:17:26And now look where you are
00:17:27Okay, that's enough
00:17:28We gotta get going
00:17:29Let's go
00:17:30That's okay, bye
00:17:39I'm sorry
00:17:44I know those words hurt
00:17:46It's fine
00:17:48You know, the way you treat your best friend's parents
00:17:50It's like you see them as your own
00:17:53Uh
00:17:55My best friend's family owe us
00:17:57So
00:17:59They owe you?
00:18:00Why, why do they owe you?
00:18:02Well, when my friend's family were broke
00:18:05My parents gave them $10,000
00:18:08After that they made it big
00:18:11So, our families kind of have like this special bond
00:18:13Hmm
00:18:23Big news!
00:18:25The eminent and elusive Oscar-winning director
00:18:27Known as Director V
00:18:29Winner of last year's Palm Door, Golden Lion and Golden Bear
00:18:32Is set to make a major public appearance this week
00:18:35And reveal their next film project
00:18:36Hey, I've gotta go run an errands so I'll be back later
00:18:47Oh, I'm heading out too, you want a ride?
00:18:49No, I'm going pretty far
00:18:50But I'll, uh, see you tonight
00:18:51This invitation must have fell
00:19:07Glad I spotted it in time
00:19:08Ava?
00:19:21Hey, what are you doing here?
00:19:24I am, I'm meeting a producer for a lunch at the hotel
00:19:28Oh
00:19:29What are you doing here?
00:19:30Funny coincidence, a friend recommended me a job here
00:19:33Oh, that's great
00:19:35For a moment I thought you were here for the director's dinner
00:19:37Oh God, no
00:19:38I mean, I'm just a regular housewife
00:19:40I could never be in the film industry
00:19:43I mean, I kind of thought you were going
00:19:45I'd love to
00:19:46But right now, no fame, no invite
00:19:50I mean, don't worry, you'll get there soon enough
00:19:53You can come with me
00:19:56I'll see you tonight
00:19:57Tonight then
00:19:59Great
00:20:05Hmm
00:20:07Please go ahead sir
00:20:13Please go ahead ma'am
00:20:14Ah shit
00:20:15Sorry, I think I lost my invitation
00:20:17Um, can you just make an exception?
00:20:18You lost it? Or you never had one?
00:20:19You seriously think I'm trying to sneak in?
00:20:20You think I'm trying to sneak in?
00:20:21Isn't that exactly what you're doing? I've seen hundreds of people like you today
00:20:25Ava?
00:20:26Ava?
00:20:27Shhh
00:20:28Where are you? You're stalking us?
00:20:30Take your hands and leave us alone
00:20:31It's like wherever we are, you're just there, stalking us
00:20:32Weird, why do I have two?
00:20:33Ava?
00:20:34Why do I have two?
00:20:35Ava?
00:20:36Why do I have two?
00:20:37Ava?
00:20:38Ava?
00:20:39Shhh
00:20:40Where are you? You're stalking us?
00:20:42Take your hands and leave us alone
00:20:44And leave us alone
00:20:45It's like wherever we are, you're just there, stalking us
00:20:49You guys really think that much of your selves
00:20:51What? You really think they're just gonna let some housewife into these banquets?
00:20:53Maybe you should get over yourself
00:20:54Weird. Why do I have two?
00:21:02Ava?
00:21:06It's like wherever we are, you're just there stalking us.
00:21:09You guys really think that much of yourselves?
00:21:12What? You really think they're just going to let some housewife into V's banquet?
00:21:17Maybe you should get over yourself.
00:21:19Daniel dropped a cool one million to get me in.
00:21:25He wouldn't spend a dime on someone like you.
00:21:27Babe, it's just a million.
00:21:30Like soon, we'll be raking in the big bucks.
00:21:34Billions.
00:21:34Oh, I love the way you say that.
00:21:37Daniel, do share your brand of pillow.
00:21:39Your dreams are real sweet.
00:21:40We have done, Ava, alright?
00:21:43The divorce papers are signed, and I don't love you anymore.
00:21:46So, leave us alone.
00:21:50Because frankly, you're disgusting.
00:21:53I'm not going to waste time with lunatics.
00:22:00Mrs. Ra, if you will follow me, please, to the VIP entrance.
00:22:05I'm, um, I'm actually divorced.
00:22:19I'm not Mrs. Roth.
00:22:22You see that one?
00:22:24That's the new Mrs. Roth.
00:22:25I'm sorry, Ms. Gray.
00:22:27Sure, I'll take care of it.
00:22:28No worries.
00:22:29Just don't let the rocks in.
00:22:31No worries.
00:22:32My apologies, Mrs. Roth.
00:22:34Um, I've made a mistake.
00:22:36Let me guide you to the VIP entrance, please.
00:22:39Well, since you apologize so sweetly, I'll let it slide.
00:22:43Oh, babe.
00:22:45Your investment in tuition is incredible.
00:22:47No.
00:22:48It's you.
00:22:49You're my superstar.
00:22:50She's not here.
00:23:04Yes, I guess not.
00:23:09Of course.
00:23:10Why would Ava have it?
00:23:12Would I?
00:23:14Stupid.
00:23:14Ladies and gentlemen, next up, the world-renowned, mysterious, director V. graces the stage.
00:23:25Next up, the world-renowned, mysterious, director V. graces the stage.
00:23:43V, she feels so familiar, almost like Ava.
00:23:52Finally, we get to see V in person.
00:23:54I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:23:57It's been three years in her last project.
00:24:00Can't wait to see her next one.
00:24:02This V, I figure it's almost like Ava's.
00:24:07No way.
00:24:08Ava's low-class looks could never compare to V.
00:24:11Yeah, you're right.
00:24:13I'd married her for three years.
00:24:15I know her inside and out.
00:24:19She can never compare to V.
00:24:22Idiots.
00:24:23Time to show you how blind you really are.
00:24:28It's too much of a coincidence.
00:24:30I need to check this out.
00:24:31Oh, my God, V. Baby, is V walking towards me?
00:24:39Is she going to choose me?
00:24:41Of course.
00:24:41I've always said you're my diamond.
00:24:44You're going to get your big break.
00:24:45My investment's going to pay off.
00:24:47Be careful, be careful.
00:24:53You're going to get your big break.
00:24:55My investment's going to pay off.
00:24:57Be careful, be careful.
00:24:58Oh, my God, is V okay?
00:25:02Dammit!
00:25:02Who made these damn stairs?
00:25:04This is going to ruin our chances.
00:25:08Are you okay?
00:25:09William?
00:25:10No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:10I can't let him know who I am.
00:25:12I am...
00:25:13No, hey, no, wait, wait.
00:25:15No, oh.
00:25:17It's okay.
00:25:18It's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
00:25:19It's okay.
00:25:24I've seen this bracelet before.
00:25:28But I'll be fine after some rest.
00:25:35Ava?
00:25:36Could V really be Ava?
00:25:40Excuse me, Mrs. Rall?
00:25:48That's me.
00:25:49Who are you?
00:25:50Director V wants you to audition as a male actor in room 301.
00:25:56Oh, my God.
00:25:58V wants me to audition.
00:25:59This is going to be my big break.
00:26:01I'm on my way.
00:26:02Everything set?
00:26:15Everything is going to plan.
00:26:23James?
00:26:23Whoa, whoa, look who it is.
00:26:27Oh, babe, I have missed you since we broke up.
00:26:30What the hell are you doing here?
00:26:36What the hell are you doing here?
00:26:38Well, I...
00:26:39The audition for Director V starts now.
00:26:53The scene is called The Affair.
00:26:55You must play a couple having a secret meeting
00:26:58while each has their own family.
00:27:00Cameras are set up.
00:27:02Start whenever you're ready.
00:27:03All right, let's do this.
00:27:07As you wish.
00:27:16Honey, I'm so sorry I'm late.
00:27:20I had to wait forever for my husband to fall asleep so I could cut.
00:27:24Hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:27:31Hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:27:33The stream is officially live.
00:27:40Let's add another play to the game.
00:27:41Let's camp up the drama.
00:27:46Oh, this bitch won't leave me alone.
00:27:50This show's about to get good.
00:27:57What the fuck?
00:28:01Without Sophia's ex,
00:28:03James, what the fuck are they doing back together?
00:28:08You don't care if your husband finds out.
00:28:11Don't talk about him.
00:28:13Okay, we have to break up like that.
00:28:15I'm the only one.
00:28:17Shh.
00:28:17You bitch.
00:28:24You bitch.
00:28:25You bitch.
00:28:26Fuck.
00:28:26Daniel.
00:28:27No, no, it's not.
00:28:28No, Daniel, stop.
00:28:29Shut the hell up.
00:28:30It's a misunderstanding, okay?
00:28:32It's just an audition.
00:28:33You expect me to believe that you're auditioning, you're acting,
00:28:36while you're naked in this room, kissing your ex.
00:28:39Please, it's just for V, okay?
00:28:40She asked me to audition.
00:28:42James, he's an actor, too.
00:28:43He's helping with the audition.
00:28:44Why are you stripping for an audition?
00:28:47What's in the script?
00:28:49You asshole.
00:28:50Come on.
00:28:51It's an affair, okay?
00:28:52We're just acting for an audition.
00:28:54It's for the audition.
00:28:55You really think you're going to intimidate me?
00:28:59I'm doing this for your company.
00:29:01I'm doing this for V.
00:29:02Come on.
00:29:03Save it, all right?
00:29:05If V wanted you here, where is she?
00:29:08I mean, with all your talent,
00:29:09you think she would notice you by now?
00:29:13What a melodramatic twist within a twist.
00:29:16Is it New V Project?
00:29:17Shut the fuck up.
00:29:18You know that if it wasn't for me,
00:29:20your company would be underground.
00:29:22Oh, now the truth is coming out, isn't it?
00:29:24You thought you could sleep with your ex
00:29:27without me finding out.
00:29:29Oh, and you're so perfect.
00:29:31You cheating on your wife with me,
00:29:33you asshole.
00:29:35What the fuck?
00:29:41What the fuck?
00:29:51Yeah, you wanna get it?
00:29:52This doesn't look like acting.
00:29:54Yeah.
00:29:54This feels way too real.
00:29:57Wait a minute.
00:29:58Isn't that Eva's new husband?
00:30:00And his new girlfriend?
00:30:02What the fuck?
00:30:03Yeah, you want again?
00:30:04Ah!
00:30:05Ah!
00:30:06Ah!
00:30:07Ah!
00:30:08Ah!
00:30:09Ah!
00:30:10Ah!
00:30:11Ah!
00:30:12Ah!
00:30:13Ah!
00:30:14Ah!
00:30:15Ah!
00:30:16Ah!
00:30:17Ah!
00:30:18Ah!
00:30:19Ah!
00:30:20Ah!
00:30:21Ah!
00:30:22Ah!
00:30:23Ah!
00:30:24Geez, this is a next level violence, Aunt.
00:30:26Yeah.
00:30:27Maybe we're seeing V's new direction?
00:30:29Wait a second.
00:30:30This is clearly revenge.
00:30:32The live stream of Ava's ex and his mistress.
00:30:35Could it be?
00:30:36Ava's actually V.
00:30:42Ah!
00:30:43Wait!
00:30:44Stop!
00:30:45Stop!
00:30:46I was paid to be here.
00:30:47To play along.
00:30:48I don't think V has anything to do with this.
00:30:51What?
00:30:52It's blowing up on TikTok.
00:30:54Well, that's a nice surprise.
00:30:58Who even played?
00:30:59Who's behind this?
00:31:00Who's posting this online?
00:31:01Ava?
00:31:04You...
00:31:05You sent me off!
00:31:06Hey, back off.
00:31:07You posted this?
00:31:08You humiliated us?
00:31:10Humiliated?
00:31:11Daniel, did you ever care?
00:31:12Because I didn't see any of that in the video.
00:31:14Hey, wasn't this your big break into the film industry?
00:31:17Now the whole world knows you.
00:31:18Guess you're famous, huh?
00:31:20You were gonna pay for this!
00:31:22Run!
00:31:23Security!
00:31:24They're fighting!
00:31:25They're fighting!
00:31:26Daniel!
00:31:27Oh!
00:31:28Whoa!
00:31:35Three years of marriage and I've never felt so... protected.
00:31:38Ladies and gentlemen, due to an emergency, V will be unable to meet if...
00:31:51The event is over.
00:31:52No!
00:31:53Please stay tuned for more information.
00:31:55Ticket money down the drain!
00:31:56That was gonna be my big break!
00:31:57That was gonna be my big break!
00:31:58I was just hoping for a signed picture.
00:32:00I just want to see what's amazing the director looked like.
00:32:06Hey, hey, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, wait, wait.
00:32:08What is up with that video online?
00:32:10What video?
00:32:11The video of your ex and that woman.
00:32:13Why is it posted from V's account?
00:32:15Why is V trying to take them down?
00:32:17Are you...
00:32:18Okay, okay.
00:32:21Look, that's because I'm...
00:32:26Sorry.
00:32:28Yeah?
00:32:29Sir, we've uncovered Ava's real identity.
00:32:35We dug into it.
00:32:36Turns out Miss Ava is just a regular housewife.
00:32:39Got it.
00:32:43I'm sorry.
00:32:44I overreacted.
00:32:46I guess, with us about to marry, I just realized how little I really know about you.
00:32:51And it just scared me a little bit.
00:32:54About to marry?
00:32:55We're just in a contract marriage, aren't we?
00:32:57Yeah, I mean, but you could say all marriage is a contract.
00:33:02And I thought we were so much more.
00:33:06You mean a lot to me, Ava.
00:33:08And I thought you could feel it too.
00:33:11I never got to thank you for rescuing me last night.
00:33:13If you hadn't stood up to Daniel, I might be in the hospital right now.
00:33:17I mean, in such a short time, you've given me care and protection that I never had in my marriage.
00:33:27If anyone hurts my fiancee, I'll make them regret it.
00:33:33Sorry to interrupt you, sir.
00:33:38Sorry to interrupt you, sir.
00:33:40But a master wants to see you.
00:33:42Hey, wait, who are you?
00:33:43I should persuade Ava to cooperate.
00:33:46My grandfather doesn't play around.
00:33:48Ava?
00:33:50There's a lot I need to explain, but I can't do it right now.
00:33:55Can you trust me? Just play along.
00:33:57Okay.
00:34:01Okay.
00:34:08William, how much do you owe?
00:34:11I hear William is your man now.
00:34:14What?
00:34:18Oh.
00:34:20Yeah.
00:34:22Sir, why am I the only one allowed in? Why can't William come?
00:34:24Because to me, he's just a fool.
00:34:27How dare you say that about him?
00:34:29He owes you money, right?
00:34:31What if I said yes?
00:34:33How much? Tell me and I'll pay it off for him.
00:34:35Pay it off? It's no small amount.
00:34:37How much?
00:34:39Well, one million.
00:34:43One million.
00:34:45That's it.
00:34:47Just a million.
00:34:49You don't know the full picture.
00:34:51One million is just the interest.
00:34:53The principal sum is ten million.
00:34:55Ten million?
00:34:57What did he borrow that kind of money for?
00:34:59I don't care.
00:35:00I just want to know if you can pay it off.
00:35:04I can.
00:35:07You're a liar.
00:35:08Not only are you broke, but you're a liar.
00:35:14You're a divorced woman.
00:35:17You've been divorced for three years and you've been waiting tables.
00:35:21What savings could you possibly have accumulated?
00:35:24How did you know I was divorced?
00:35:26Did you investigate me?
00:35:27Did you investigate me?
00:35:29Yes, I did.
00:35:31In our line of work, information is everything.
00:35:34No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:35:43Did you investigate me?
00:35:44Yes, I did.
00:35:46In our line of work, information is everything.
00:35:49No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:35:54Try digging a little deeper.
00:35:56My cheating ex is a CEO of a listed company.
00:36:00And the divorce settlement?
00:36:02It's hefty.
00:36:03It's hefty.
00:36:06What?
00:36:08You've paid 11 million dollars for William?
00:36:11Why did you pay such a huge amount for that scumbag?
00:36:14Maybe to you, he's just a broke jerk.
00:36:16When I needed him, he was there.
00:36:18Money's one thing, but William?
00:36:21He's worth more than all of it.
00:36:27Geez.
00:36:29It's as if destiny is pulling strings.
00:36:31How did William meet someone this perfect?
00:36:36Her ex must be a total jerk.
00:36:42Pull every single penny out of Daniel Roth's investments.
00:36:47Now.
00:36:48Ava, are you okay?
00:37:01I'm fine.
00:37:03You, you need to learn how to be a good man.
00:37:08What?
00:37:09Why did Katzenberg pull out?
00:37:16We've been working with them for years.
00:37:18I don't know.
00:37:19Could it be because of the live stream video?
00:37:21I mean, it has to be.
00:37:23This is all on Ava.
00:37:25I...
00:37:27I'm gonna kill her.
00:37:28I swear.
00:37:29I hope you do.
00:37:30I mean, with Katzenberg gone, we're missing an 80% funding gap.
00:37:35We may as well file for bankruptcy.
00:37:38Oh, Daniel, please, calm down.
00:37:40I've just gotten word that Fi's hosting auditions for her new film tomorrow.
00:37:44So, if I can get her approval...
00:37:48Well, then you, as the face of our company, you'll skyrocket the stock price.
00:37:55And Katzenberg will be begging for shares.
00:37:58Oh, you genius!
00:38:06Sam?
00:38:07Miss, the Katzen call is set for tomorrow.
00:38:10I just heard.
00:38:11Katzenberg pulled all investments from Daniel's company.
00:38:14They'll be bankrupt by the month's end.
00:38:16Even so,
00:38:18I've got one last strike for this idiot.
00:38:20What do you mean?
00:38:22Have Cameron contact Sophia.
00:38:24Let her know she can buy a role in my new film.
00:38:27For a high price.
00:38:38Hey, William, what's up?
00:38:40I, uh...
00:38:41I have an audition for V's movie tomorrow.
00:38:44Oh.
00:38:45Well, that's great.
00:38:46Yeah, um...
00:38:48Look, I'm just too nervous.
00:38:50I can't get into any of the emotional scenes.
00:38:53Do you like baking?
00:38:54Oh.
00:38:55Oh, no.
00:38:56Oh.
00:39:00Oh!
00:39:02Oh, no.
00:39:03Oh!
00:39:05Oh!
00:39:06Oh!
00:39:07Oh!
00:39:12Oh!
00:39:13Oh, sorry I'm late.
00:39:28I'm Cameron, the producer of E's Movie.
00:39:31So once I pay, Sophia's got the role, right?
00:39:36Of course.
00:39:43This is perfect.
00:39:49What's going on?
00:39:50Uh, nothing.
00:39:52You want more cake?
00:39:53Yeah.
00:39:59Okay, I think we might have had like a little bit too much.
00:40:02No, you're not even tipsy.
00:40:04And I'm fine.
00:40:06All right, then maybe we should drink some more then.
00:40:09Yeah, sure thing.
00:40:10Okay.
00:40:10Can I kiss you?
00:40:35You should probably take that.
00:40:38Oh.
00:40:40Why the hell?
00:40:43How many times I was just starting to feel it?
00:40:46Hmm.
00:40:47Well, look at you back in character.
00:40:50I think my job here is done.
00:40:53Time to get some sleep and get the showers.
00:40:54Oh, my God.
00:40:55Wow, Ava, you're stunning.
00:41:08No one would believe that Director V and the richest heiress in town are actually the same
00:41:14person.
00:41:14Well, you know, I never cared for the public perception, but God, I can't wait to see Daniel
00:41:20in Sophia's faces when they find out the truth.
00:41:29Hello?
00:41:30Ava, can you do me a favor?
00:41:34What's wrong?
00:41:34Has something happened?
00:41:35No, um, I'm just a little worried about the emotional scenes today.
00:41:40Could you be my partner and help me run through it?
00:41:45Uh, um, uh.
00:41:52Could you be my partner?
00:41:54Uh, um, all right, um, yeah, no, I mean, of course, I'll go with you.
00:42:00Ava, thank you.
00:42:01I'll send you the location for casting.
00:42:05Yeah, okay, bye.
00:42:06Ava, where are you going?
00:42:11If you leave, who will run the casting?
00:42:14Who will choose the actors?
00:42:19You'll handle it.
00:42:21Me?
00:42:35Fuck!
00:42:36Ava, what are they doing here?
00:42:39First she ruins my company, now she wants to ruin the audition.
00:42:42All right, let's get this casting underway.
00:42:53I can't love you anymore.
00:42:55Please, please, let me go.
00:42:59Let us bury our love in the past.
00:43:04And never look back.
00:43:06Cut.
00:43:08Next.
00:43:10What's going on?
00:43:11I didn't finish my lines.
00:43:13That's enough.
00:43:14He gave me zero emotion.
00:43:16I put my heart into that scene.
00:43:18He gave me nothing.
00:43:19If you have a complaint, feel free to file a complaint form.
00:43:22But for now, please leave the audition area.
00:43:25Her acting.
00:43:29I'm sure you don't want to rupture it.
00:43:32I don't want to rupture it.
00:43:33I don't want to rupture it.
00:43:34I don't want to rupture it now.
00:43:35Next.
00:43:36That's our turn.
00:43:38Hey, you've got this.
00:43:43Whoa.
00:43:44Sorry, this woman is not an actress. She has no right to audition
00:43:49What's going on here? It's simple. I brought my fiance to audition. It'll help me give a better
00:44:00performance. This is V's casting. Come on, only pros allowed. You're just gonna let some untrained
00:44:06housewife sneak her way in? Once this leaks, V's reputation will be ruined and you'll be fired.
00:44:12Sophia, you are not V. How could you know what she cares about?
00:44:17What does it matter if she's a pro? Training doesn't guarantee impact. You can still touch hearts
00:44:27as long as you're feeling and in the role. That's what a true actor does.
00:44:33All right, you're up.
00:44:47You know, you say you love me, but I mean, you don't even know who I am. Can you really love
00:44:53someone you barely know? Who says that I can't? I can see your strength, your kindness and the
00:45:02vulnerability beneath it. I mean, I feel your pain and see your scars. I know we've only known each
00:45:08other a short time, but I feel like I see you better than I see myself. And I love you.
00:45:17Before you go, can you kiss me once more?
00:45:19It's really knows how to fake it. Now for the official casting results.
00:45:38Oh, it's a good thing we've got a backup plan.
00:45:48Oh, it's a good thing we've got a backup plan. Who cares about acting anyway?
00:45:53Yeah. Yeah. I mean, acting is nothing really. Money is how you get the role.
00:46:01Eto'o. Effie. Kevin. William. Oh my God. What? That's incredible.
00:46:10William, you're amazing. Why am I not on this list? They're still going. Okay. It's okay.
00:46:17Uh, last Ava. What? No way. Ava, you got in as well. Yeah.
00:46:28This isn't fair. The list has been terrible. There is cheating going on in this casting.
00:46:33Where's your proof? Without anything to back it up, that's slandering.
00:46:37Proof? Well, um, I paid 50 million to the producer to get her a role.
00:46:43Yeah, and they've already taken the money. So if I don't get the lead role, we're suing.
00:46:47So if I don't get the lead role, we're suing. Oh, is that so? You know, it's funny you say that because I haven't heard anything about it.
00:46:59Wait, what are you talking about? Ava, I need to tell you something. Um, I am actually an investor in the film.
00:47:09William, please don't get carried over it. No, it's true, okay? I'll prove it to you.
00:47:15Prove it? You're just some nobody pretending to be some film investor?
00:47:20Do you know how many millions it's going to take to make this movie?
00:47:27Wait a minute.
00:47:27Is that a Katzenberg black card?
00:47:42My full name is William Katzenberg.
00:47:45Oh, you have lost it now, haven't you? A washed-up actor trying to use a prop as the real card.
00:47:56The Katzenbergs are the top three family in America. Got connections everywhere, and this nobody is pretending to be one.
00:48:05Mr. Katzenberg has arrived.
00:48:10Katzenberg? Oh my god, he's William's creditor.
00:48:13Oh, shit.
00:48:23Grandpa? Why is he here?
00:48:26Oh no, this is bad.
00:48:33Oh no, this is bad.
00:48:36Mr. Johnson, it is a pleasure to see you.
00:48:39Daniel, what are you doing here?
00:48:41Have you got that funding issue sorted yet?
00:48:44We're working on it. May I ask it? Why did the Katzenbergs drop out of our project?
00:48:51We don't want the people abusing the Katzenberg name.
00:48:53What?
00:48:54Wait, wait, wait. Well, as a matter of fact, you came at the perfect time.
00:48:57Because somebody here is using the Katzenberg name.
00:49:01Oh, now you have my attention.
00:49:03And I'm very curious.
00:49:05Who's got the guts to pull that off?
00:49:08Him.
00:49:15Sir?
00:49:24Hey, what the hell?
00:49:25You're chasing me down now?
00:49:27I already paid you back.
00:49:32I already paid you back.
00:49:34Ava, what do you mean you've paid back my grandfather?
00:49:36I already paid...
00:49:37Wait, are you calling him your grandfather?
00:49:39This is my grandson, William Katzenberg, official heir to the Katzenberg family fortune.
00:49:50What does this mean?
00:49:51A whistle?
00:49:51No, no, no, no, no. This, this can't be what...
00:49:54Daniel, I don't need your opinion on how to choose an heir.
00:49:59Oh, so this is how it is.
00:50:02Well, the Katzenbergs are using their movies to launder their dirty money.
00:50:08Hey, hey, you watch your mouth.
00:50:10Slandering us like that will land you in prison.
00:50:13Daniel, before you jump to conclusions, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
00:50:22Cameron?
00:50:25Ava, you, you know him?
00:50:26You two have been working together this whole time?
00:50:32Cameron, how dare you impersonate V's producer?
00:50:40Sorry, I'm not impersonating anybody.
00:50:42I am V's producer.
00:50:45Then why are you working with this bitch?
00:50:47What's in it for you?
00:50:49I told you that I'm V's producer.
00:50:52And you know what?
00:50:53I take my odors from her.
00:50:57What are you talking about?
00:50:59Honestly, like, who even is V?
00:51:02I mean, I don't know her.
00:51:03I've got no beef with her.
00:51:05So why would she send you to ruin me?
00:51:09Right, so you would like me to, uh, unlift it all and, uh, reveal who V is today.
00:51:16Well, Ava, is that okay?
00:51:19Yeah.
00:51:20In the flesh.
00:51:22That's correct.
00:51:22This is the mysterious, the fabulous, the fearless, V.
00:51:30And she's also the heiress of the Green Family Fortune.
00:51:34Oh, it's V.
00:51:35Well, I'm finally seeing V in person.
00:51:37Famous director and heiress.
00:51:40V's got the perfect life.
00:51:41No, no, no, she can't be.
00:51:46That's impossible.
00:51:47You idiot.
00:51:49You stupid idiot.
00:51:52I trusted you and I could have been with Ava.
00:51:55I swear, I swear I am going to kill you.
00:51:58You wanna try?
00:51:59You wanna fight?
00:52:00Are you crazy?
00:52:01I'm gonna kill you.
00:52:02FBI, everyone free.
00:52:04What are you doing here?
00:52:14Daniel, we have proof of your embezzlement.
00:52:15From here on out, you have the right to remain silent.
00:52:17Anything you say will be used against you in court.
00:52:22What are you talking about?
00:52:24I...
00:52:24Who told you?
00:52:27Who do you think?
00:52:29You.
00:52:31Get them out of here.
00:52:32Go of me!
00:52:34Let go!
00:52:35Fuck you!
00:52:36Okay?
00:52:41Fuck you!
00:52:42Get off me!
00:52:43Get off!
00:52:44Ava, so you're not only V, but the Green family fortune heiress.
00:52:49I mean, I knew something was off.
00:52:53Yes, okay, I haven't been completely honest with you, but...
00:52:57And you haven't been very truthful to me either, right?
00:52:59I've wanted to be honest, but do you know how lies can top on top of each other?
00:53:06Look, it's all over now.
00:53:07I'm sorry, but I can't move past this.
00:53:10If we can't even be honest with each other, then maybe...
00:53:12Maybe it's time we cool off.
00:53:16Ava, I can see how much you care for each other.
00:53:21Thank you, Frank.
00:53:23This is between me and him.
00:53:25Ava...
00:53:26Are you really leaving me?
00:53:31Brian, this is always a contract.
00:53:34Now it's expired.
00:53:41It's okay, son.
00:53:43You can do this.
00:53:44Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
00:54:02I love you again.
00:54:27Yeah.
00:54:27Ava, please don't go.
00:54:55Ava.
00:54:57You're leaving us already.
00:55:01Can't you stay a few more days just to be with us?
00:55:05Mom, I've just, I've been through too much lately and I'm exhausted.
00:55:10I need to clear my head, I'm exhausted.
00:55:13Don't let anyone hold you back.
00:55:16You deserve a bigger world.
00:55:20Maybe you'll find somebody better for you.
00:55:22No, no, I have been fooled too many times and I think,
00:55:25I just, I don't trust any guy anymore.
00:55:29If you end up with a woman, that's okay too.
00:55:32As long as you're happy.
00:55:33Mom, trust and orientation are completely different things.
00:55:37A guy with eight-pack abs still doesn't know.
00:55:39Anyway, my driver's waiting.
00:55:44I'll, um, I'll see you in a bit.
00:55:47Oh, please.
00:55:50Good luck, baby.
00:55:51Love you.
00:55:52Oh, she's leaving us.
00:56:07Let's go.
00:56:08Eva Green.
00:56:11Long time, we'll see.
00:56:13You
00:56:43Okay
00:56:48William, I'll admit it. I'm not like I was with my ex
00:56:52Walking away from you is way harder, but without me. Can you still feel that spark?
00:57:00Hey, Henry, why haven't we set off yet? We're gonna be late. Hey
00:57:09Sophia what the hell are you doing here?
00:57:11Let's save the check till later
00:57:41You crazy bitch do you even realize what you're doing is a crime?
00:57:53Fuck

00:57:59You're the reason Daniel's in prison. You fucked up my entire life
00:58:04Sophia listen to me

00:58:49Say goodbye.
00:58:53Give it up, Ava.
00:58:55I'm burning everything to the ground.
00:59:03I'm cutting it.
00:59:05I'm burning everything in the ground.
00:59:09I'm burning everything in the ground.
00:59:11I'm burning everything in the ground.
00:59:13I'm burning everything.
00:59:15Come on and get out of there.
00:59:17I can't do anything.

01:00:05Hey, hang on, okay?
01:00:06I'm going to call an ambulance.
01:00:08At least you'll stay with me, okay?
01:00:10You're going to be okay.
01:00:19Bill!

01:00:27He's done really a lot of events.
01:00:28Miss V, over here.
01:00:32V, you are looking stunning tonight, as always.
01:00:37The question everybody's been wondering, is V alone at this big premiere?
01:00:42Well, I was supposed to be accompanied by a very special person tonight.
01:00:47And where is that special someone?
01:00:49He...
01:00:50And where is that special someone?
01:00:51He...
01:00:52And where is that special someone?
01:00:53He...
01:00:54He...
01:00:55And where is that special someone?
01:00:59He...
01:01:00I...
01:01:01He...
01:01:03Oh, I'm not trying it.
01:01:05I'm not looking.
01:01:06I'm not looking.
01:01:07He's doing great.
01:01:08I'm not looking fine.
01:01:10What do you...
01:01:11I'm looking for?
01:01:12Congratulations, Ava, or should I say V.
01:01:17It's quite the turnout tonight.
01:01:19It'll be no surprise that your new film is another hit.
01:01:22So I thought I'd surprise you in a different way.
01:01:29Ava, since we've met, we've been through so much together,
01:01:34even flirting with death.
01:01:36On the day of your movie premiere, and on your very special day,
01:01:40I have to ask.
01:01:44Will you marry me?
01:01:48William.
01:01:52No.
01:01:58You have to marry me.
01:02:10But I could not marry me.
01:02:28You have to marry me.
