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

01:03:07You're gonna be okay.
01:03:14Vee, Vee, come here. Vee, Vee, Vee.
01:03:20Vee, what was the inspiration for your ladies?
01:03:23Is it true that the movie was based on reality events?
01:03:25Miss Vee, over here.
01:03:29Vee, you are looking stunning tonight, as always.
01:03:33The question everybody's being...
01:03:36Is Vee alone at this big premiere?
01:03:39Well, I was supposed to be accompanied by a very special person tonight.
01:03:43And where is that special someone?
01:03:46He...
01:03:54And where is that special someone?
01:03:56He...
01:03:57Congratulations, Ava.
01:04:12Or should I say Vee?
01:04:15It's quite the turnout tonight.
01:04:17It'll be no surprise that your new film is another hit.
01:04:20So I thought I'd...
01:04:22Surprise you in a different way.
01:04:27Ava.
01:04:28Since we've met, we've been through so much together.
01:04:31You've been flirting with death.
01:04:34On the day of your movie premiere.
01:04:36And on your very special day, I have to ask...
01:04:42Will you marry me?
01:04:45William.
01:04:56You have to marry me.
01:05:06I feel good.
01:05:09He's like, oh.
01:05:13I feel happy!
01:05:14Under the day of your movie premiere...
01:05:17Would you come and fight with your dreams?
01:05:19But what is death or death...
01:05:21Don't you write that?
01:05:23GO!
01:05:25That's not true.
01:05:27Don't you even figure rightfully like...
01:05:29You know, maybe you have one or four...
01:05:31But every one, you know, makes the devil six years.
