00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the Best Original Screenplay at the Rising Stars Movie Awards.
00:17You did it.
00:19Three years ago, I was the most sought after screenwriter.
00:23Three years later, I fell in love with Drake,
00:28giving my identity a secret for the sake of his pride.
00:32I thought we were happy until...
00:38Hi.
00:45Where the hell have you been?
00:47I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday,
00:50and instead of helping us, he just disappeared.
00:53What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?
00:56You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
01:00is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
01:03Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?
01:07What?
01:08A maid?
01:09I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.
01:13Well, I think Drake's idea is great, and it could be really good for us.
01:17But the risk is way too high.
01:22Dad.
01:23Please.
01:26Okay.
01:27And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm a person.
01:35Think about it, Dorothy.
01:36Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
01:39How often does he actually come home?
01:41He doesn't even want to look at you.
01:44Let alone sleep with you.
01:46That's enough, Ellie.
01:47We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.
01:49I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.
01:52Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake
01:55instead of being my late brother's widow.
01:58Ellie!
01:59Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.
02:01Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.
02:08It's the perfect time.
02:12Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
02:14Dorothy just pushed Stephanie into the pool!
02:16What?
02:23Quick, save Stephanie!
02:24She's carrying Nick's baby!
02:29Quick, get in there!
02:31He chose Stephanie over me.
02:36My baby! My baby is gone!
02:39Why would you do this to me?
02:41Help! Help!
02:43He chose Stephanie over me.
02:48My baby! My baby is gone!
02:52Why would you do this to me?
02:55How dare you!
02:57You push Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby.
03:00Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?
03:03I didn't do it!
03:04I know you don't want me here!
03:06I told you whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past!
03:09You can hate me however you want to, but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?
03:14He didn't do it! You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie!
03:16Just apologize to Stephanie!
03:18Just apologize to Stephanie!
03:20I'm not going to apologize for something I didn't do!
03:23Apologize to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you!
03:25I will divorce you!
03:32Divorce?
03:34If you apologize right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance!
03:38It's been three years, Drake. I gave up everything to be your wife.
03:48I've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.
03:51I already have a life.
03:53And right now I just want to focus on being on my marriage of Drake.
03:56I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.
04:03The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
04:08Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
04:11He doesn't even want to look at you!
04:15Fine!
04:17Let's get a divorce!
04:26There's nothing left in my heart. Drake's nothing without me.
04:32My ring!
04:34My ring is gone!
04:36Well, you must have taken it.
04:38Why would I take her ring?
04:40Look how quickly you packed your suitcase.
04:42You're probably seeing someone else.
04:44Dorothy.
04:46Yes?
04:48We were married for three years. Were you seeing someone else?
04:50Of course she was.
04:51Probably been cheating on you for a really long time.
04:54Couldn't wait for the divorce.
04:56So what if I was, huh?
04:58And what about you? Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?
05:02What gives you the right to talk about me?
05:04I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.
05:08Yeah.
05:09But you actually seeing someone else? Who is he?
05:11Big talk!
05:13Don't bring me down to your level.
05:15I'm not like you.
05:17Since your sister-in-law lost her ring,
05:22why don't you take...
05:26this one?
05:29This one.
05:32You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?
05:39Bye.
05:40And so I left.
05:47This is ridiculous!
05:52We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.
05:56I let him marry my daughter and even invested in his business.
06:01How dare that Drake do this to my daughter!
06:05Look, it's actually good from Dad.
06:09Now we know who he really is and he has no idea who I am.
06:12Still, you're my daughter. I can't let him do this to you.
06:15If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.
06:20We're gonna pull our investment immediately.
06:22Yes. It's time to cut him off.
06:24He doesn't deserve you.
06:26I'm over Drake.
06:28If we withdraw the plans now,
06:31it's going to hurt the family business.
06:33He's not worth it.
06:35Honey.
06:36Why don't you just take a vacation?
06:40Or just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself?
06:44Yeah.
06:47No.
06:51I've wasted too much time with Drake over the three years.
06:55You know, now I want to focus on something that actually matters.
07:00You know, Christopher has been saying
07:02that many people want to buy the movie rights to lie is gay.
07:06Universal.
07:07Paramount.
07:08Every major studio wants this.
07:13Liar's Game.
07:14Your story on the big screen.
07:16If you're in, I'd be happy to be the one headlining you.
07:19Oh.
07:20So that's why they're making it.
07:21Because of you.
07:22I'm sorry, Christopher Santoro.
07:25See?
07:26They're not funding the film.
07:28They're funding you.
07:29Wrong.
07:31They're funding the story.
07:32It's more than good.
07:34It's phenomenal.
07:36Christopher is right.
07:38I'm taking my life back.
07:44I'm going to adapt to myself.
07:46You are?
07:48Yes.
07:49I will.
07:51Good for you.
07:52I won't tell anyone to ask you.
07:53I won't tell anyone to ask you.
08:04Congratulations to Aria Wong for winning the best director.
08:07This is my close friend from college.
08:08Aria.
08:09I need your help.
08:10I want to adapt the Liar's Game myself.
08:11And I want you to direct it.
08:12Of course.
08:13All right.
08:14Okay.
08:15There's just one thing.
08:16I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:18I don't want anyone to know.
08:20Especially not the team.
08:21SQ.
08:22Are you sure?
08:23But why keep it a secret?
08:24I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:27Got it.
08:28Your secret's safe with me.
08:29Hey.
08:30Oh my god.
08:31Jeff.
08:32It's a bit weird.
08:34Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.
08:40Really?
08:41I don't know.
08:42I don't know.
08:43No.
08:44Especially not the team.
08:45SQ.
08:46Are you sure?
08:47But why keep it a secret?
08:48I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:51Got it.
08:52Your secret's safe with me.
08:53Hey.
08:54Oh my god.
08:55Oh my god.
08:56That's a bit weird.
08:57Dave?
08:58It's a bit weird.
09:00Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.
09:02It's Stephanie.
09:09Yeah, just take it.
09:14Hello?
09:15Hello, Miss Wong.
09:16I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.
09:19I'm interested in playing the lead.
09:21Can we arrange an audition?
09:25I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.
09:28Thank you, Miss Wong.
09:29What do you think?
09:34Anyone can audition, right?
09:35As long as they're right for the role.
09:39What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...
09:43Okay.
09:44I'll call her back and let her know.
09:56What about me?
10:00Can I be your hero?
10:06Oh, you mean, uh...
10:08A film, right?
10:10I...
10:11I've never considered anyone else.
10:16I have to take this.
10:18Hi?
10:19You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.
10:27It's okay.
10:29I can wait.
10:32I've waited this long.
10:37Well, well, well.
10:39Look who it is.
10:40Why are you here?
10:43Why are you here?
10:45Oh, I see.
10:46You're the production assistant.
10:49Well, do your job.
10:51Get me a water.
10:54Stephanie.
10:56Get your own water.
10:57I'm not your PA.
10:59Look.
11:00It's my first day on set and I want to buy coffee for the crew.
11:04Why don't you be a doll and mark down everyone's order?
11:08Are you deaf?
11:10I'm not a PA.
11:12Here's a tip.
11:14Go on.
11:16Show some respect, Stephanie.
11:18Do you know who she is?
11:20What were you doing?
11:23Oh, no.
11:24She can't know I'm askew.
11:28I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
11:32I don't want anyone to know, especially not the team.
11:38What do you mean?
11:40Who is she?
11:43No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.
11:49Isn't that right?
11:51Well, actually, she's...
11:55She's...
11:56Just a PA.
11:57You're right.
12:00So why don't you show me a lower PA, your acting skills?
12:04Maybe I'll be impressed even by other coffees myself.
12:07Watch this.
12:13I loved you once.
12:16Or so I thought.
12:19But now I see that it was all just a lie.
12:22A beautiful...
12:26Painful lie.
12:31You took everything from me.
12:34My dreams.
12:36My future.
12:41See?
12:42There's no soul.
12:44That's not acting, it's just...
12:46Reciting lines.
12:48Why don't you show her how it's done?
12:50What?
12:52Go on.
12:56Go on.
12:57What?
13:05What?
13:07I loved you once.
13:08Or so I thought.
13:09I loved you once, so I thought, but now I can see it was all a lie, a beautiful, painful
13:30lie. You took everything from me. My heart, my dreams, my future. And for what? For your
13:47own personal gains. How is that possible? Dorothy, that was perfect. The role is yours
14:06if you want it. No! This role is mine! I'm the one with the investment. Without me, there's
14:14no funding for this movie. Your investment? Do you even know who she is? Who is she?
14:22Who is she? As you know, no one but a PA. Dorothy, this movie is important to Stephanie. I mean,
14:34why are you here? You're not a real actress. What are you doing? You're trying to ruin
14:37her career. You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career. I'm not ruining anything.
14:42If she can't handle the role, that's on her, not me. You can't blame this on anyone else.
14:47You embarrassed her in front of everyone. I mean, I know what you're doing. You're the
14:51one pulling all the strings here. You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.
14:55She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake. She's been jealous from the start.
14:59Trying to ruin my chances to get back to you. Okay, no. I don't want to fight anymore.
15:04Well, let's just take a look at the script and maybe we can work something out.
15:07And you were just so damn selfish. You already care about yourself. Just give Stephanie her
15:15role back. You know what? I don't want to do this, but I will. I'll take the role. I'll play the lead.
15:24I'll play the lead. No way. You can't be serious. She's not even a real actress.
15:35Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours. Everyone in the room can see it.
15:42I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.
15:46Right. It's settled then. The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.
15:50I will double my investment if you give Stephanie a role.
16:01I never thought I'd see the day my ex-husband would go this far for his sister-in-law.
16:07I can always count on you, right?
16:13I will double my investment if you give a role to Stephanie.
16:17You two are just such...
16:22Okay, look. If the money's on the table, there's no reason to turn it down.
16:26Let's just leave her apart. We have nothing to lose.
16:30I guess that'll be fine. I'll talk to SQ.
16:34You're father's production company is already the biggest investor in your movie.
16:43So why take Drake's money? You don't still have feelings for Drake, do you?
16:49No. He's an asshole.
16:52Come on.
16:54I've got an idea.
16:55Why don't we just give her a character? That'll make her miserable.
17:03Wow, Mr. Sontaro. I feel bad now.
17:11I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.
17:16How did she land herself the role? She's practically a nobody.
17:20No fan base, no real experience. Just one good scene. Doesn't make sense.
17:28Find out everything you can about Dorothy. I want all the dirt.
17:39Director, there must be a mistake. I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.
17:44You wanted a role. We gave you a role.
17:48I came in with an investment.
17:51Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.
17:56Even a small role in SQ's film is going to do great things for your career.
17:59Now is not the time for you to be messing around.
18:04Fine.
18:11Two, take one.
18:11Action.
18:13Lily, you are my best friend. How could you do this to me?
18:16I'm sorry, but this is...
18:20What the hell are you doing?
18:22It's part of the scene.
18:28Okay, take it again from the slap.
18:30Action.
18:35Cut.
18:36Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines?
18:39You have to keep going in the scene.
18:42I think you've had enough for today.
18:44We'll just try again tomorrow.
18:53Did you see her face?
18:55Absolute gold.
18:56I mean, she got what she wanted. She asked for a role and that's what we gave her, so...
19:02Seriously, her performance is all over the place. Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.
19:09And we all know the film's better without her slowing us down.
19:13You're right.
19:15I'm not gonna let anyone ruin your story.
19:17What's going on with my scenes? Why have so many of them been cut?
19:37It's a collective decision.
19:41Fuck that. Let me talk to the writer.
19:44The writer is SQ and as you know, they never show their face, so their decision is final.
19:48I'll see you on set in five.
19:52I'll see you on set in five minutes.
19:54I'll see you on set in five minutes.
19:56I'll see you on set in five minutes.
20:00I'll see you on set in five minutes.
20:02I'll see you on set in five minutes.
20:05Now it all makes sense.
20:12Now it all makes sense.
20:14That's the head of the production company.
20:17No wonder she got the role.
20:19Let's see how John's wife feels about that.
20:22Everyone, I have an announcement to make.
20:33Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.
20:41You really think I don't see through your little games?
20:44Somebody will be walking out that door today, but it won't be me.
20:49You really think you can get away with this?
20:52Sleeping your way up?
20:56John's wife is on her way.
20:58Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.
21:00Slut.
21:05That's enough!
21:10So were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?
21:13What? Scared the truth is going to come out?
21:16Someone had to expose her for who she really is.
21:19So you admitted. You did it.
21:22Damn right I did.
21:23And I'd do it again if I had to.
21:25You don't know who you just cross!
21:29Oh, I know.
21:30Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.
21:33I sent those photos to your wife too.
21:36And now your mistress is about to be exposed.
21:40Yeah, security.
21:43Stephanie is banned from the studio.
21:45Make sure she never sets foot here again.
21:47You can't just do that.
21:49Oh, this is insane.
21:50What are her rights?
21:51I was only telling you the truth.
21:53She is a mistress, a loose woman, a lady of the night!
21:56Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:06Otherwise, why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?
22:10That's unbelievable.
22:12And he humiliated me.
22:13He had me dragged off the set like a criminal.
22:15You should have seen it.
22:17I'm not going to let her just ruin her reputation like this.
22:21I mean, this whole mess is just making us look like fools.
22:23Dorothy's always been trouble.
22:27I mean, first she goes off with a married man and now this.
22:31I don't know how you put up with her for three years.
22:34You should have got a divorce earlier.
22:38Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:42It's the only explanation.
22:44She's clearly nothing but a slut.
22:48Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.
22:52Now you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.
22:56Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?
22:59She was sleeping her way to the top, killing Stephanie's unborn child.
23:05And John dragging her off the set.
23:07You should be sticking up for Stephanie.
23:09I'm not going to let her do this to you.
23:29Do you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?
23:31I didn't walk away from anything.
23:33You did.
23:35You chose Stephanie over me.
23:36Remember this one?
23:37Oh, she's my sister-in-law.
23:38I'm so sick of hearing this.
23:42You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it.
23:45You're out of your mind if you think I'm going to let you get away with this.
23:47Shh.
23:48You do what you want to do.
23:50But for now, get out!
23:52Why?
23:53We were married for three years.
24:01And we never paid.
24:02Oh, your dear fuck, you might let go of it!
24:14No wonder you want me to go.
24:17Just look at yourself.
24:18You're not half the man Christopher is.
24:23Get out.
24:24Or I will call the cops.
24:27Just go!
24:36Are you okay?
24:42Dorothy?
24:44Remember, safety first.
24:46The lifeguard's right there if you need him.
24:48Okay.
24:52Anything you need, let the AD know.
24:54Okay.
24:54Got it.
24:55Got it.
25:04Here's a coffee for you.
25:06It's still early before the shoot.
25:07Take your time.
25:16I want you to die.
25:37Wait.
25:38Here.
25:39I dont know.
25:39I am sorry.
25:40Something's wrong.
26:05That's not acting.
26:07She's in trouble.
26:10Where's the lifeguard?
26:19Where's the lifeguard?
26:19Where's the lifeguard?
26:19Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:37Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:42Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:44Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:49Come on, Dorothy.
26:52Come on, Dorothy.
26:54Why did you do that?
27:17I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
27:19Christopher risked everything without hesitation, how could I have been so blind?
27:42I wasn't expecting that.
27:52Where were you?
27:56I'm sorry.
27:57I'm sorry.
27:58I had a stomachache, I had to go to the bar.
28:00Make sure it doesn't happen again.
28:02Do you think that I should call Dorothy just to make sure she's okay?
28:07Are you still hung up on her?
28:10No.
28:11It's not like that.
28:12I'm just trying to be helpful.
28:13Don't you remember, Drake?
28:14She's the one who had me kicked out of the movie.
28:17She's the one who killed my baby.
28:19Not just my baby, but Nick's baby.
28:21I know I'm just her sister-in-law.
28:22Whatever happened between us is in the past, but I have no one now.
28:28No husband.
28:29No baby.
28:30I have left as you.
28:31Don't you see through Dorothy yet?
28:32She's nothing but a slut, sleeping her way to the top.
28:33You don't know that.
28:34You know I'm right.
28:35Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
28:36Not just John.
28:37You're not just my baby, but Nick's baby.
28:38I know I'm just her sister-in-law.
28:39Whatever happened between us is in the past, but I have no one now.
28:41No husband.
28:42No baby.
28:43I have left as you.
28:44Don't you see through Dorothy yet?
28:45She's nothing but a slut, sleeping her way to the top.
28:46You don't know that.
28:47You know I'm right!
28:48Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
28:50Not just John, but Christopher too!
28:51She's sleeping around with anyone she can find!
28:52She's a whore!
28:53You don't know that!
28:54You know I'm right!
28:55Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
28:58Not just John, but Christopher too!
29:00She's sleeping around with anyone she can find!
29:03She's a whore!
29:04Shut up!
29:05You want war?
29:16I'll give you more.
29:22Do it.
29:24Make sure Dorothy feels every bit of it.
29:31Breaking news.
29:32Unknown actress seduces Hollywood heartthrob.
29:35Rising star or opportunist.
29:38Actress Dorothy's shocking affair with Christopher.
29:41Christopher's new flame for a heartless gold digger.
29:43Dorothy!
29:45Liar!
29:46Happy!
29:46This is getting out of hand.
29:51Maybe we should just reveal her real identity.
29:54Let everyone know she's not just some random actress.
30:01No.
30:02Dorothy, once we tell them who you are, there's no reason for them to attack you.
30:05There's someone behind us.
30:08And whoever they are, I'll make them hang.
30:10Fuck off.
30:24This can't be right.
30:29I die in the second scene.
30:31This must be Dorothy and John forcing S.Q. to cut me out.
30:36They won't get away with this.
30:42Trey, can you believe this?
30:44They've completely written me out of the script.
30:47Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
30:49You promised him you'd look after me.
30:53I've already lost my husband and my baby.
30:55I can't lose my career too.
30:56Don't worry.
30:58I'll get you your character back.
31:00There's a tape of a documentary that apparently S.Q. has always wanted.
31:20So, we win this bid and we gift it to them.
31:23Should be able to get you your rollback.
31:28Up next, a rare gem.
31:31The original film documentary chronicling the creative journey of none other than herself.
31:37Legendary screenwriter, Margaret Lane.
31:4050,000.
31:42What's she doing here?
31:45I don't know.
31:47I'm not going to let her win this.
31:4960,000.
31:5470,000.
31:58100,000.
32:01This is my grandmother's documentary.
32:04It's her legacy.
32:06She's the one who inspired me to become a screenwriter.
32:09I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.
32:13500,000.
32:19I'm trying to get you your roll.
32:28Don't worry.
32:30I've got it covered.
32:30Ladies and gentlemen, we are down to the final bid.
32:35Standing at a whopping 500,000.
32:39500,000 going once.
32:42500,000 going twice.
32:45Sold.
32:46To the lady in the blue dress.
32:47I can't believe this.
32:57You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:04You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:07What's going on?
33:17Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed that Miss Dorothy is in fact not an invited
33:23guest.
33:24Therefore, as per our rules, this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.
33:30This is ridiculous.
33:31I was invited.
33:33Well, in that case, may I see your invitation?
33:42I did have it, I swear.
33:43I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.
33:45If you do not have the invitation at hand, the documentary reel has to go to the second
33:49highest bidder.
33:49This is the protocol.
33:51Oh, you don't understand.
33:52I'm sorry.
34:00These are the rules.
34:14The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.
34:30Stephanie, wait.
34:37Just sell it to me.
34:40Name your price.
34:41I'll pay you anything you want.
34:42It's really important to me, please.
34:44Why are you doing this?
34:46Are you just trying to get my attention by going after something that Stephanie wants?
34:50No, you don't understand.
34:53Just let me buy this.
34:55Whatever it takes.
34:57Dorothy.
34:58You think this is about money?
35:01Please.
35:02This isn't something you can just buy.
35:04Dorothy.
35:05What the hell are you doing?
35:07Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:09This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:11She can use this to help her career.
35:13Her career?
35:15Is this about your role being cut from the pen?
35:19Is that why you're doing this?
35:23I'm the writer.
35:24I'm going to fix this.
35:25I'm going to write the story and bring your character back.
35:29Just let me have to realize this.
35:32You're the writer.
35:34Are you telling me that you're SQ?
35:39You, the writer SQ.
35:42Can you give us a break?
35:43Look, this reel is important to Stephanie.
35:47End it.
35:48Don't make this harder than it has to be.
35:51You've been with Dorothy for so long, and you don't even know her.
35:54Oh, and you do.
35:55A hell of a lot more than you.
35:57Who the fuck do you think you are?
35:58Both of you, calm down.
35:59What?
35:59What?
35:59Scratched all over.
36:14It's ruined.
36:15Not even fit to be a gift anymore.
36:17I can fix this.
36:19Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it.
36:21Just sell it to me.
36:22Please, just name your price.
36:23Even if I had no use for it, I'd never give it to you.
36:53I want to be a writer like you, Grandma.
36:59I want to make movies like you do.
37:02This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:07Really?
37:07An entire world I've captured.
37:11But it's just one way of seeing things.
37:14The magic is creating it yourself.
37:17Someday you will.
37:18Dorothy, I need you to go apologize to Stephanie and give her her role back.
37:36Apologize?
37:37To her?
37:38She destroyed the reel.
37:39She wouldn't have done that if you hadn't pushed her.
37:46So go apologize or I'm pulling my funding.
37:48Look, Dorothy, let's be real here.
37:53Without Stephanie, Barry's going to invest.
37:57Even the production company will call out if they hear that she's not involved anymore.
38:00Her name carries weight.
38:02Let's not pretend that your reputation is exactly stellar right now.
38:06Christopher's fans hate you.
38:07Stephanie's fans hate you.
38:09Even if you actually make this film,
38:12no one's going to support you.
38:13You will be Barry.
38:14If you apologize to Stephanie now,
38:19I can help you.
38:22I can control the press.
38:24I can control the narrative.
38:26I can actually give you a chance.
38:30What's so funny?
38:33What's so funny?
38:34Pull your funding?
38:37Do it.
38:39You'll see it does nothing for the movie.
38:41Okay.
38:42So what if I tell the production head to pull his funding too?
38:46Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?
38:48Oh.
38:49Go ahead.
38:50Quiet.
38:51You want me to call?
38:53Mm-hmm.
38:54Fine.
38:59Hi, Mr. Bennett.
39:00It's Drake.
39:01Drake Mossbacher.
39:03Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liars Game,
39:04and I suggest that you do the same thing.
39:06I've seen it, and it's a sinking ship.
39:10You're pulling out?
39:11Great.
39:12I'll take full control of the investment.
39:14Not a problem.
39:14No problem.
39:14No problem.
39:14No problem.
39:21So you start with him?
39:25That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?
39:29Is this how you see me?
39:31The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?
39:33What other explanation do you have?
39:36You know nothing about Dorothy.
39:41Apologize to Stephanie, cut ties with Mr. Bennett, and end this.
39:45Dorothy, come back to me.
39:46Whatever he's offering you, I'll match it.
39:47I'll double it.
39:48You must be out of your fucking mind.
39:52What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?
39:55Living hell?
39:56You heard me.
39:57Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.
40:01You made me believe you loved me.
40:05And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.
40:09You said you'd always protect me, but then when I need you the most,
40:13you just turned your back on me.
40:15You chose your sister-in-law.
40:17Over your wife.
40:21We've had enough, Drake.
40:22You were my prison.
40:24So just go back to your precious Stephanie.
40:31Let's just go.
40:32Why are you hurt?
40:43Are you okay?
40:50What are you doing?
40:51Steph, what are you doing?
40:52Well, you want me, don't you?
40:53Just kiss me.
40:54I'm all yours.
40:55Steph!
40:56You're Nick's wife.
40:57I've always thought of you like a sister.
40:59Sister?
41:01Funny.
41:02Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?
41:05Don't you remember what you said?
41:08Remember this?
41:10Yeah.
41:10Why not marry Stephanie?
41:13God.
41:13You're practically begging me not to marry Nick.
41:15No, I shouldn't have said that.
41:16I shouldn't have said that.
41:17I don't see.
41:21What's that?
41:22Oh, it's nothing.
41:23No, what is that?
41:24No, Drake, no.
41:25Please.
41:25You lied about this.
41:32You lied about this.
41:36You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water, but this shows you shoving her in.
41:41It's a glitch.
41:43A glitch.
41:44So, do you actually expect me to believe that?
41:47What's this?
41:50Buying pills off the black market.
41:53Tell me your pregnancy.
41:55It's you.
41:56This time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat and she was innocent the whole time.
42:01Please, no, you have to believe me.
42:03I didn't...
42:03Do you know why?
42:04I've always thought of you like a sister.
42:06I've always taken care of you.
42:08I even thought that I loved you once, but that was before you were Nick's wife.
42:13You changed.
42:16You changed.
42:19You're not the person I thought you were.
42:23I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty.
42:25There's Nick's brother to look after his widow.
42:28I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, eh?
42:32But what does that mean?
42:33You're just going to throw me away?
42:36I'm not going to throw you away.
42:38But this is my house.
42:41I'm going to back.
42:42I hope you'll be gone.
42:44But you can't just walk away from me like that.
42:46I've said everything that I need to say.
42:47Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.
42:54Dorothy.
42:56This is all your fault.
43:01Let's take this bitch down.
43:03Don't I say please?
43:20No.
43:21No.
43:21I was wrong.
43:25I misunderstood everything about you and about us.
43:32Can you please just hear me out?
43:34You think you can just come here and apologize?
43:38After everything?
43:38I didn't mean to hurt you.
43:42Look, I understand what I did.
43:43But it was just because it was definitely an enemy.
43:45Can you please just forgive me?
43:48I don't need your apology, Drake.
43:51You let me down.
43:52You abandoned me.
43:55And I needed you the most.
43:57You used me.
43:59Manipulated me.
44:00And now you beg for my forgiveness?
44:02Oh my God, please just don't show me out.
44:04I can fix this.
44:07I can fix that.
44:07I can do anything, Dorothy, please.
44:10No.
44:12You were never the person I thought you were.
44:16And I'm not either.
44:18I've moved on.
44:21I don't need you.
44:25Not like I used to.
44:27Just stay back.
44:29After everything.
44:30Yeah, that's it.
44:34I just have better than this.
44:45Before you all celebrate this movie,
45:13there's something you should know.
45:16Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.
45:18What's going on?
45:20A glorified mistress
45:21who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress
45:24when all she's really done is ruin lives.
45:29Is it true, Dorothy?
45:30You're involved with a married man?
45:31What's your response to Stephanie's claim?
45:36This is ridiculous.
45:38Let's talk about how she got here.
45:41Shall we?
45:41She didn't get here off her talent.
45:44Oh, no.
45:45She got here by clinging to powerful men.
45:49No real experience.
45:50No skill.
45:51Just a man's name and a man's money.
45:54Security!
45:55Get her out of here.
45:56Wait.
45:57If she has something to say,
45:59let's hear it.
46:00Dorothy, it's a trap.
46:02I'm not afraid of the truth.
46:03Let's see what she's got.
46:09What's going on?
46:11So tell us, Dorothy.
46:12How did you get here?
46:15Did you use your relationship with John Bennett
46:17to land the part?
46:18A homework, are you saying?
46:36Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?
46:38You're the one who sent me this photo, right?
46:41How about you take another one?
46:43This time, of my lovely family of three.
46:46Dorothy, Dorothy, Dorothy.
46:48Are you really John Bennett's daughter?
46:49Yes.
46:50I bet you never ask my last name.
46:53It's Bennett, by the way.
46:56So, Dorothy is the producer's daughter.
46:59Dorothy, so did you use your father to get the part?
47:02So, it's just nepotism, then.
47:10Well, even if she didn't fuck her way to the top,
47:12she still only got here through her connections.
47:14Whether you like it or not,
47:15my performance speaks for itself.
47:17And everyone here saw it.
47:19She was actually really good.
47:20Yeah, she handled the movies.
47:22Oh, are you saying that everyone here is wrong?
47:25You think you're so clever, don't you?
47:28Fine.
47:28You can act a little bit.
47:30But let's be real.
47:32You didn't land this role on your own.
47:34You just snapped your bony little fingers
47:35and let Daddy give you a role.
47:37How else would a nobody like you
47:39have landed yourself the lead otherwise?
47:42Dorothy isn't just a nobody.
47:46She wrote Liar's Game.
47:49She is SQ.
47:54Dorothy is SQ.
47:56How can that be possible?
47:58Liar's Game is a masterpiece.
47:59There's no way you could have written it.
48:01You don't have to believe me.
48:03Just let the credit speak for itself.
48:08How can this be true?
48:15Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer
48:17and the famous writer SQ.
48:19Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:24Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:26Stephanie Marsbecker, Linda Marsbecker and Ellie Marsbecker.
48:30I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.
48:32No, no, no.
48:33I didn't do anything wrong.
48:34This was all Stephanie's idea.
48:35I didn't do anything.
48:35This whole time, she was actually telling the truth.
48:46Dorothy's SQ.
48:49She's Jesus.
48:50That's why she always had a book in her hand.
48:56Always writing something on her laptop,
48:58always lost in her thoughts.
49:02Didn't you ever see her?
49:05Guess I was blind all along.
49:08I don't deserve that.
49:09I've missed this place.
49:31Don't you remember?
49:33Of course I do.
49:34We saw so many films here.
49:36We would just stay in our seats and talk about life and everything.
49:44But you just made me feel like I could face more anything, really.
49:51God, I used to be so nervous back then.
49:54About everything.
49:55About the future.
49:58But you just made me feel like I could face more anything, really.
50:03No.
50:04Someone had to be there to make sure you didn't overthink everything.
50:08I remember you used to unpick every little detail like it was a life or death situation.
50:17You know, Dorothy.
50:21Life's not been the same without you.
50:26Even when we parted ways, I...
50:28I always knew that we would find each other again.
50:31I don't care what we've been through.
50:36I don't care what's happened.
50:38All I know...
50:40Is that I need you now.
50:44More than ever.
50:45And the award for Best Adapted Screenplay goes to...
51:03Dorothy Bennett with Liar's Game!
51:06I think that's a great idea.
51:07Why don't we start now?
51:08I think that's a great idea.
51:09Why don't we start now?
51:10You deserve this.
51:11Your Majesty.
51:12Every bit of it.
51:13Now.
51:14Since you won, I think this calls for a reward.
51:15Oh yeah?
51:16And what would that be?
51:17Me.
51:18Me.
51:19No.
51:20No.
51:21No.
51:22No.
51:23No.
51:24No.
51:25No.
51:28No, I'd rather have to walk away.
51:30No.
51:31No!
51:33So...
51:34No, I could have been a little bit too long and I don't think her.
51:40Is that it?
51:41But I don't think Riex and O'Connor, would tell her really benefit me.
