00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the Best Original Screenplay at the Rising Stars
00:16Movie Alliance.
00:18We did it.
00:20Three years ago, I was the most sought-after screenwriter.
00:25Three years later, I fell in love with Drake, keeping my identity a secret for the sake of his pride.
00:32I thought we were happy until...
00:38Hi!
00:46Where the hell have you been?
00:48I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday,
00:51and instead of helping us, he just disappear.
00:54What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?
00:57You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side
01:01is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
01:04Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?
01:08What?
01:09A maid?
01:10I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.
01:14Well, I think Drake's idea is great, and it could be really good for us.
01:20But the risk is way too high.
01:22Okay.
01:23Dad.
01:25Please.
01:27Okay.
01:29And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm investing.
01:37Think about it, Dorothy.
01:38Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
01:41How often does he actually come home?
01:43He doesn't even want to look at you.
01:46Let alone sleep with you.
01:48That's enough, Ellie.
01:49We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.
01:51I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.
01:54Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake
01:57instead of being my late brother's widow.
02:00Ellie!
02:01Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.
02:04Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.
02:06It's the perfect time.
02:07Oh my God!
02:08Oh my God!
02:09Oh my God!
02:10Dorothy just pushed Stephanie into the pool!
02:11What?
02:12What?
02:13What?!
02:14What?!
02:15What?!
02:16What?!
02:17What?!
02:18What?!
02:20What?!
02:21What?!
02:22I didn't know what that was about!
02:23What?!
02:24What?!
02:25What?
02:26What?!
02:27Oh my God!
02:28Oh my God!
02:29What?!
02:30I'm going to-
02:31Oh, Dorinda just pushed Stephanie into the pool!
02:33What?
02:34What?!
02:35What?!
02:37Oh!
02:38Oh!
02:39Oh!
02:40He chose Stephanie over me.
02:50My baby! My baby is gone!
02:54Why would you do this to me?
02:57How dare you!
02:59You push Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby.
03:02Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?
03:05I didn't do it!
03:06I know you don't want me here!
03:07I told you, whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past.
03:11You can hate me however you want to, but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?
03:16You didn't do it. You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie.
03:20Apologise to Stephanie.
03:23I'm not going to apologise for something I didn't do.
03:25Apologise to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you.
03:35Divorce.
03:35If you apologise right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance.
03:45It's been three years, Drake.
03:48I gave up everything to be your wife.
03:51You've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.
03:53I already have a life, and right now I just want to focus on being on my marriage with Drake.
04:01I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.
04:06The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because you're nothing more than a free maid.
04:11Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?
04:13He doesn't even want to look at you.
04:15Fine.
04:20Let's get a divorce.
04:28There's nothing left in my heart.
04:31Drake's nothing without me.
04:32My ring!
04:37My ring is gone!
04:39Well, you must have taken it.
04:41Why would I take her ring?
04:42Well, look how quickly you packed your suitcase.
04:44You're probably seeing someone else.
04:47Dorothy.
04:49Yes?
04:49We were married for three years.
04:51Were you seeing someone else?
04:53Of course she was.
04:54Probably been cheating on you for a really long time.
04:57Couldn't wait for the divorce.
04:59So what if I was, huh?
05:01And what about you?
05:02Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?
05:05What gives you the right to talk about me?
05:07I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.
05:12But you actually seeing someone else?
05:14Who is it?
05:14Big talk!
05:16Don't bring me down to your level.
05:18I'm not like you.
05:20Since your sister-in-law lost her ring.
05:26Why don't you take...
05:32This one.
05:36You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?
05:43Fine.
05:48And so I left.
05:54This is ridiculous!
05:56We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.
06:01I let him marry my daughter and even invested in his business.
06:05How dare that Drake do this to my daughter!
06:07Look, it's actually a good thing, Dad.
06:13Now we know who he really is and he has no idea who I am.
06:17Still, you're my daughter.
06:19I can't let him do this to you.
06:21If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.
06:24We're going to pull our investment immediately.
06:26Yes.
06:27It's time to cut him off.
06:29He doesn't deserve you.
06:30I'm over Drake.
06:33If we withdraw the plans now, it's going to hurt the family business.
06:37He's not worth it.
06:40Honey, why don't you just take a vacation?
06:45Just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself.
06:49Yeah.
06:49No.
06:56I've wasted too much time with Drake over the three years.
07:01You know, now I want to focus on something that actually matters.
07:05You know, Christopher has been saying that many people want to buy the movie rights to Liar's Game.
07:11Universal, Paramount, every major studio wants this.
07:18Liar's Game.
07:19Your story on the big screen.
07:21If you're in, I'd be happy to be the one headlining it.
07:24Oh.
07:25So that's why they're making it.
07:26Because of you.
07:27I'm sorry, Christopher Santoro.
07:30See?
07:31They're not funding the film.
07:33They're funding you.
07:34Oh.
07:36They're funding the story.
07:37It's more than good.
07:39It's phenomenal.
07:41Christopher is right.
07:43I'm taking my life back.
07:45I'm taking my life back.
07:49I'm going to adapt to myself.
07:52You are?
07:54Yes.
07:55I will.
07:56Well, good for you.
07:59I won't tell anyone I'm asking you.
08:00Congratulations to Aria Wong for winning the best director.
08:18This is my close friend from college.
08:21Aria, I need your help.
08:22I want to adapt the Liar's Game myself.
08:25And I want you to direct it.
08:28Of course.
08:30All right.
08:31Okay.
08:32There's just one thing.
08:33I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.
08:37I don't want anyone to know.
08:40Especially not the team.
08:41SQ.
08:42Are you sure?
08:43But why keep it a secret?
08:45I just want people to focus on the story itself.
08:49Got it.
08:49Your secret's safe with me.
08:53Oh my god.
08:57Dave.
08:58It's a bit weird.
09:00Ever since news got out about our movie,
09:03my phone has not stopped ringing.
09:05Really?
09:05Really?
09:05Really?
09:11It's Stephanie.
09:16Yeah, just take it.
09:21Hello?
09:22Hello, Miss Wong.
09:23I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.
09:26I'm interested in playing the lead.
09:27Can we arrange an audition?
09:32I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.
09:35Thank you, Miss Wong.
09:38What do you think?
09:41Anyone can audition, right?
09:42As long as they're right for the role.
09:46What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...
09:49Okay.
09:52I'll call her back and let her know.
09:54Mm-hmm.
10:04What about me?
10:07Can I be your hero?
10:11Oh, you mean, uh, the film, right?
10:17I've never considered anyone else.
10:22I have to take this.
10:25Hi.
10:30You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.
10:32Well, well, well, look who it is.
10:51Why are you here?
10:53Oh, I see.
10:54You're the production assistant.
10:56Well, do your job.
10:59Get me a water.
11:02Stephanie.
11:04Get your own water.
11:05I'm not your PA.
11:07Look.
11:08It's my first day on set and I want to buy coffee for the crew.
11:12Why don't you be a doll and mark down everyone's order?
11:16Are you deaf?
11:17I'm not a PA.
11:19Here's your tip.
11:22Go on.
11:23Show some respect, Stephanie.
11:26Do you know who she is?
11:29What are you doing?
11:31Oh, no.
11:32She can't know.
11:33I'm asking you.
11:37I want to keep my identity as the writer.
11:39It's a secret.
11:40I don't want anyone to know.
11:42Especially not the team.
11:43What do you mean?
11:49Who is she?
11:52No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.
11:58Isn't that right?
11:59Well, actually, she's...
12:02She's just a PA.
12:05You're right.
12:08So why don't you show me a lower PA?
12:11Your acting skills.
12:12Maybe I'll be impressed even by who the coffee's myself.
12:16Watch this.
12:22I loved you once.
12:25Or so I thought.
12:27But now I see that it was all just a lie.
12:31A beautiful...
12:34Painful lie.
12:40You took everything from me!
12:42My dreams!
12:45My future!
12:50See?
12:51There's no soul.
12:53That's not acting.
12:54It's just...
12:55reciting lines.
12:58When are you sure how it's done?
12:59What?
13:00Go on.
13:04Go on.
13:05I loved you once.
13:28I loved you once.
13:28So I thought.
13:29So I thought.
13:31But now I can see.
13:35It was all a lie.
13:36A beautiful, painful lie.
13:42You took everything from me.
13:47My heart, my dreams, my future.
13:54And for what?
13:57For your own personal gains.
14:06How is that possible?
14:12Dorothy, that was perfect.
14:15The role is yours if you want it.
14:18No!
14:19This role is mine!
14:21I'm the one with the investment.
14:24Without me, there's no funding for this movie.
14:26Your investment?
14:27Do you even know who she is?
14:30Who is she?
14:32As you know, no one but a PA.
14:39Dorothy, this movie is important to Stephanie.
14:43I mean, why are you here?
14:44You're not a real actress.
14:45What are you doing?
14:46You're trying to ruin her career.
14:47You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career.
14:49I'm not ruining anything.
14:51If she can't handle the role, that's on her, not me.
14:55You can't blame this on anyone else.
14:57You embarrassed her in front of everyone.
14:59I mean, I know what you're doing.
15:01You're the one pulling all the strings here.
15:03You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.
15:06She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake.
15:08She's been jealous from the start.
15:10Trying to ruin my chance just to get back to you.
15:12Okay, no.
15:13I don't want to fight anymore.
15:14Let's just take a look at the script
15:16and maybe we can work something out.
15:18And you were just so damn selfish!
15:21You only care about yourself!
15:24Just give Stephanie her role back!
15:26You know what?
15:28I didn't want to do this.
15:30But I will.
15:32I'll take the role.
15:34I'll play the lead.
15:35I'll play the lead.
15:39No way!
15:40You can't be serious!
15:41She's not even a real actress!
15:43Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours.
15:48Everyone in the room can see it.
15:50I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.
15:56Right, it's settled then.
15:58The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.
16:01I will double my investment if you give Stephanie a role.
16:08I never thought I'd see the day my ex-husband would go this far.
16:16For his sister-in-law.
16:18I can always count on you.
16:20Right?
16:25I will double my investment if you give a role to Stephanie.
16:28You two look as such!
16:33Okay, look.
16:34If the money's on the table, there's no reason to turn it down.
16:37Let's just give her a part.
16:40We have nothing to lose.
16:41I guess that'll be fine.
16:44I'll talk to SQ.
16:51Your father's production company is already the biggest investor in your movie.
16:54So why take Drake's money?
16:56You don't...
16:57You don't still have feelings of Drake, dear?
17:00No!
17:01He's an asshole!
17:04Come on.
17:05I've got an idea.
17:09Why don't we just give her a character that'll make her miserable?
17:15Well, Mrs. Santaro.
17:16I feel bad now.
17:17I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.
17:28How did she land herself the role?
17:30She's practically a nobody.
17:31No fan base.
17:32No real experience.
17:33Just one good scene.
17:34It doesn't make sense.
17:35Find out everything you can about Dorothy.
17:36I want all the dirt.
17:40Director, there must be a mistake.
17:41I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.
17:45You wanted a role.
17:46We gave you a role.
17:47I came in with an investment.
17:48Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.
17:53Even a small role in SQ's film is going to do great things for your career now is not the time for you to be messing around.
18:00Fine.
18:102 take 1.
18:11Action.
18:12Lily, you were my best friend. How could you do this to me?
18:13to be messing around.
18:17Fine.
18:24Two take one.
18:25Action.
18:27Lily, you are my best friend.
18:28How could you do this to me?
18:29I'm sorry, but this is...
18:34What the hell are you doing?
18:35It's part of the scene!
18:41Okay, take it again from the slap.
18:43Action!
18:49Cut!
18:50Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines?
18:52You have to keep going in the scene.
18:56I think you've had enough for today.
18:57Yeah, but we'll just try again tomorrow.
19:07Did you see her face?
19:08Absolute goal.
19:11I mean, she got what she wanted.
19:12She asked for a role, and that's what we gave her, so...
19:16Seriously, her performance is all over the place.
19:19Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.
19:22And we all know the film's better without her slowing us down.
19:26You're right.
19:27I'm not going to let anyone ruin your story.
19:31So, if you can just give me something that's a bit more...
19:38I'm thinking about her death.
19:48What's going on with my scenes?
19:49Why have so many of them been cut?
19:51It's a collective decision.
19:55Fuck that.
19:56Let me talk to the writer.
19:58The writer is Eskew, and as you know, they never show their face, so their decision is final.
20:05I'll see you on set in five.
20:07Now it all makes sense.
20:27Now it all makes sense.
20:29That's the head of the production company.
20:32No wonder she got the role.
20:34Let's see how John's wife feels about that.
20:46Everyone, I have an announcement to make.
20:49Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.
20:56You really think I don't see through your little games?
20:59Somebody will be walking out that door today, but it won't be me.
21:03You really think you can get away with this?
21:07Sleeping your way up?
21:11John's wife is on her way.
21:13Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.
21:16Slut.
21:21That's enough!
21:25So were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?
21:29What? Scared the truth is going to come out?
21:31Someone had to expose her for who she really is.
21:35So you admit it. You did it.
21:37Damn right I did. And I'd do it again if I had to.
21:43You don't know who you just cross!
21:44Oh, I know. Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.
21:50I sent those photos to your wife, too. And now your mistress is about to be exposed.
21:56Yeah. Security.
21:58Stephanie is banned from the studio. Make sure she never sets foot here again.
22:03You can't just do that!
22:05This is insane! What are her rights?
22:07I was only telling you the truth!
22:09She is a mistress! A loose woman! A lady of the night!
22:12Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:22Well, otherwise, why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?
22:26That's unbelievable.
22:28And he humiliated me. He had me dragged off the set like a criminal! You should have seen it!
22:34I'm not gonna let her just ruin our reputation like this.
22:37I mean, this whole mess is just making us look like fools.
22:42Dorothy's always been trouble.
22:44I mean, first she goes off with a married man, and now this.
22:48I don't know how you put up with her for three years.
22:51You should have got a divorce earlier.
22:55Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?
22:59It's the only explanation! She's clearly nothing but a slut!
23:05Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.
23:09Now you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.
23:13Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?
23:16She was sleeping her way to the top, killing Stephanie's unborn child.
23:22And John dragging her off the set. You should be sticking up for Stephanie!
23:26I'm not gonna let her do this to you.
23:46Do you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?
23:48I didn't walk away from anything. You did. You chose Stephanie over me. Remember this one?
23:54And she's my sister-in-law!
23:56I'm so sick of hearing this. You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it!
24:02You're out of your mind if you think I'm gonna let you get away with this!
24:05You do what you want to do. But for now, get out!
24:11Why?
24:17We were married for three years and we never-
24:19Are you damn f***ing like, let go of me!
24:22No wonder you want me to go!
24:35Just look at yourself. You're not half the man Christopher is.
24:40Get out. Or I will call the cops.
24:45Just go!
24:52Are you okay?
25:00Worthy?
25:02Remember, safety first. The lifeguard's right there if you need him.
25:06Okay.
25:10Anything you need, let the AD know.
25:12Okay. Got it. Got it.
25:14Yeah?
25:22Here's a coffee for you.
25:24It's still early before the shoot. Take your time.
25:52Hello.
26:00Hello.
26:00You
26:20Something's wrong
26:24That's not acting. She's in trouble
26:30Where's the lifeguard?
26:32Where's the lifeguard?
26:36Where's the lifeguard?
26:52Stay with me!
26:54Don't!
26:56Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
26:58Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
27:00Where the fuck is the lifeguard?
27:08Come on, Dorothy!
27:10Come on, Dorothy!
27:12Come on
27:14I'm sorry
27:16I'm sorry
27:18No
27:20I'm sorry
27:22What about you?
27:24I'm sorry
27:26Why'd you do that?
27:28Why did you do that?
27:37I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.
27:42Christopher risked everything without hesitation.
27:46How could I have been so blind?
27:58I wasn't expecting that.
28:20Where were you?
28:21I'm sorry.
28:22They could have drowned.
28:23I'm sorry.
28:23I had a stomachache.
28:25I had to go to the bar.
28:26Make sure it doesn't happen again.
28:28Do you think that I should call Dorothy just to make sure she's okay?
28:36Are you still hung up on her?
28:39No.
28:40It's not like that.
28:41I'm just trying to be helpful.
28:43Don't you remember, Drake?
28:45She's the one who had me kicked out of the movie.
28:49She's the one who killed my baby.
28:51Not just my baby, but Nick's baby.
28:54I know I'm just your sister-in-law.
28:56Whatever happened between us is in the past.
28:58But I have no one now.
29:01No husband.
29:03No baby.
29:05I have left as you.
29:09Don't you see through Dorothy yet?
29:11She's nothing but a slut sleeping away to the top.
29:13You don't know that.
29:16You know I'm right!
29:17Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?
29:21Not just John, but Christopher too!
29:23She's sleeping around with anyone she can find!
29:25She's a whore!
29:26Shut up!
29:26You want war?
29:37I'll give you war.
29:43Do it.
29:45Make sure Dorothy feels every bit of it.
29:49Breaking news.
29:54Unknown actress seduces Hollywood heartthrob.
29:57Rising star or opportunist.
29:59Actress Dorothy's shocking affair with Christopher.
30:02Christopher's new flame or a heartless gold digger.
30:04Dorothy!
30:06Liar!
30:07Hey, bitch!
30:08This is getting out of hand.
30:13Maybe we should just reveal her real identity.
30:16Let everyone know she's not just some random actress.
30:22Christopher, no.
30:24Dorothy, once we tell them who you are, there's no reason for them to attack you.
30:27There's someone behind this.
30:29And whoever they are, I'll make them pay.
30:32Okay.
30:38Fuck off.
30:46This can't be right.
30:51I die in the second scene!
30:54This must be Dorothy and John forcing SQ to cut me out.
30:58They won't get away with this.
31:04Trite, can you believe this?
31:06They've completely written me out of the script.
31:09Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?
31:12You promised him you'd look after me.
31:15I've already lost my husband and my baby.
31:17I can't lose my career too.
31:19Don't worry.
31:20I'll get you your character back.
31:36There's a tape of a documentary that apparently SQ has always wanted.
31:43So, we win this bid and we gift it to them.
31:46Should be able to get you your rollback.
31:51Up next, a rare gem.
31:54The original film documentary chronicling the creative journey of none other than herself.
31:59Legendary screenwriter Margaret Lane.
32:03$50,000.
32:05What's she doing here?
32:08I don't know.
32:10I'm not going to let her win this.
32:12$60,000.
32:17$70,000.
32:20$100,000.
32:22This is my grandmother's documentary.
32:27It's her legacy.
32:29She's the one who inspired me to become a screenwriter.
32:32I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.
32:36$500,000.
32:46$500,000.
32:47I'm trying to get you your rollback.
32:52Don't worry.
32:53I've got it covered.
32:54Ladies and gentlemen, we are down to the final bid.
32:59Standing at a whopping $500,000.
33:02$500,000 going once.
33:06$500,000 going twice.
33:09So, to the lady in the blue dress.
33:11$500,000.
33:17I can't believe this.
33:21You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:28You have no right to take that film reel with you.
33:33What's going on?
33:41Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed.
33:43Miss Dorothy is, in fact, not an invited guest.
33:48Therefore, as per our rules,
33:50this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.
33:54This is ridiculous.
33:55I was invited.
33:57Well, in that case...
33:58May I see your invitation?
34:06I did have it, I swear.
34:07I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.
34:09If you do not have the invitation at hand,
34:11the documentary reel has to go to the second highest bidder.
34:14This is the protocol.
34:15Oh, you don't understand.
34:16I'm sorry.
34:36I'm sorry.
34:37These are the rules.
34:38The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.
34:41I'll pay you anything you want.
34:42It's really important to me, please.
35:00Stephanie, wait.
35:02Just sell it to me.
35:05Name your price.
35:06I'll pay you anything you want.
35:07It's really important to me, please.
35:09Why are you doing this?
35:11Are you just trying to get my attention
35:13by going after something that Stephanie wants?
35:16No, you don't understand.
35:18Just let me buy this.
35:20Whatever it takes.
35:22Oh, Dorothy.
35:24You think this is about money?
35:26Please.
35:27This isn't something you can just buy.
35:30Dorothy.
35:31What the hell are you doing?
35:33Why do you always have to go against her like that?
35:34This reel is important to Stephanie.
35:36She can use this to help her career.
35:39Her career?
35:41Is this about your role being cut from the girl?
35:43Is that why you're doing this?
35:48I'm the writer.
35:50I can fix this.
35:52You can rewrite the story and bring your character back.
35:54Just let me have the reel, please.
35:58You're the writer.
36:00Are you telling me that you're S.Q.?
36:05You.
36:06The writer S.Q.
36:07Can you give us a break?
36:09Look.
36:10This reel is important to Stephanie.
36:12Me.
36:13End it.
36:14Don't make this harder than it has to be.
36:17You've been with Dorothy for so long
36:19and you don't even know her.
36:20Oh, and you do.
36:21Yeah.
36:21A hell of a lot more than you.
36:23Who the fuck do you think you are?
36:24Both of you, calm down.
36:25What the fuck?
36:39Scratched all over.
36:40It's ruined.
36:41Not even fit to be a gift anymore.
36:44I can fix this.
36:45Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it.
36:47Just sell it to me, please.
36:48Just name your price.
36:52Even if I had no use for it,
36:54I'd never give it to you.
36:55No.
36:58No.
36:58I want to be a writer like you, Grandma.
37:25I want to make movies like you do.
37:29This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.
37:34Really?
37:34Mm-hmm.
37:35An entire world I've captured.
37:37But it's just one way of seeing things.
37:41The magic is creating it yourself.
37:44Someday you will.
37:45Dorothy, I need you to go apologize to Stephanie and give her her role back.
38:03Apologize?
38:03To her?
38:05She destroyed the reel.
38:06And she wouldn't have done that if you hadn't pushed her.
38:13So go apologize or I'm pulling my funding.
38:16Look, Dorothy.
38:18Let's be real here.
38:21Without Stephanie,
38:22who's going to invest?
38:24I mean, even the production company will pull out if they hear that she's not involved anymore.
38:27Her name carries weight.
38:28Let's not pretend that your reputation is exactly stellar right now.
38:33Christopher's fans hate you.
38:35Stephanie's fans hate you.
38:37Even if you actually make this film,
38:39no one's going to support it.
38:41It will be buried.
38:44But if you apologize to Stephanie now,
38:48I can help you.
38:50I can control the press.
38:52I can control the narrative.
38:54I can actually give you a chance.
38:55What's so funny?
39:01What's so funny?
39:03Pull your funding.
39:05Do it.
39:06You'll see it does nothing for the movie.
39:08Okay.
39:09So what if I tell the production head to pull his funding too?
39:13Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?
39:15Oh.
39:17Go ahead.
39:18Try it.
39:19You want me to call?
39:21Uh-huh.
39:22Fine.
39:25Hi, Mr. Bennett.
39:28It's Drake.
39:29Drake Mossbatcher.
39:31Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liars Game
39:32and I suggest that you do the same thing.
39:34I've seen it and it's a sinking ship.
39:38You're pulling out?
39:39Great.
39:40I'll take full control of the investment.
39:42Not a problem.
39:43So you slept with him?
39:53That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?
39:58Is this how you see me?
39:59The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?
40:01What other explanation do you have?
40:04You know nothing about Dorothy.
40:09Apologize to Stephanie, cut ties with Mr. Bennett and end this.
40:13Dorothy, come back to me.
40:14Whatever he's offering you, I'll match it.
40:15I'll double it.
40:17You must be able to be a fucking mind.
40:19What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?
40:24Living hell?
40:25You heard me.
40:26Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.
40:30You made me believe you loved me.
40:33And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.
40:37You said you'd always protect me, but then when I needed you the most,
40:42you just turned your back on me.
40:44I chose your sister-in-law over your wife.
40:49I've had enough, Drake.
40:51You were my prison.
40:53So just go back to your precious Stephanie.
41:00Just go.
41:10Why are you hurt?
41:12Are you okay?
41:14Hmm.
41:19What is Steph, what are you doing?
41:21Oh, you want me, don't you?
41:22Just kiss me, I'm all yours.
41:24Steph!
41:25You're Nick's wife.
41:26I've always thought of you like a sister.
41:29Sister?
41:31Funny.
41:32Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?
41:35Don't you remember what you said?
41:38Remember this?
41:39Yeah, I want to marry Stephanie.
41:42God.
41:43You were practically begging me not to marry Nick.
41:45Oh, I shouldn't have said that.
41:46I shouldn't have said that.
41:47I don't know if you...
41:49What's that?
41:52Oh, it's...
41:52No, nothing.
41:53No, what is that?
41:53No, Drake, no.
41:54Please.
41:57You lied about this.
42:02You lied about this.
42:06You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water, but this shows you shoving her in.
42:11It's a glitch.
42:12A glitch.
42:14Sorry, do you actually expect me to believe that?
42:17What's this?
42:19Buying pills off the black market.
42:23Tell them I hit your pregnancy.
42:25It's you.
42:26This time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat and she was innocent the whole time.
42:31Drake, please, no, you have to believe me.
42:33I didn't...
42:33Do you know what?
42:34I've always thought of you like a sister.
42:36I've always taken care of you.
42:38I even thought that I loved you once, but that was before you were Nick's wife.
42:43You've changed.
42:47You've changed.
42:47You've changed.
42:49You're not the person I thought you were.
42:53I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty as Nick's brother to look after his widow.
42:59I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, huh?
43:02But what does that mean?
43:04Are you just going to throw me away?
43:06I'm not going to throw you away.
43:07But this is my house.
43:12When I'm back, I hope you'll be gone.
43:14But you can't just walk away from me like that.
43:16I've said everything that I need to say.
43:18Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.
43:21Oh, Dorothy.
43:25This is all your fault.
43:32Let's take this bitch down.
43:33Can I say please?
43:51No.
43:53I was wrong.
43:54I misunderstood everything about you and about us.
44:03Can you please just hear me out?
44:04You think you can just come here and apologise?
44:09After everything?
44:10I didn't mean to hurt you.
44:13Look, I understand what I did, but it was just because of Stephanie.
44:16But anyway, can you please just forgive me?
44:18I don't need your apology, Drake.
44:22You let me down.
44:23You abandoned me.
44:26When I needed you the most.
44:28You used me.
44:30Manipulated me.
44:31And now you beg for my forgiveness?
44:34Oh, God, please, just don't shut me out.
44:36I can fix this.
44:38I can fix it.
44:39I can do anything to Dorothy, please.
44:42No.
44:44You were never the person I thought you were.
44:46And I'm not either.
44:49I've moved on.
44:52I don't need you.
44:57Not like I used to.
44:59So I just did that.
45:01After everything.
45:02Yeah, that's it.
45:03I deserve better than this.
45:33Before you all celebrate this movie, there's something you should know.
45:48Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.
45:51What's going on?
45:51A glorified mistress who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress when all she's
45:57really done is ruin lives.
46:01Mr. Dorothy, were you involved with a married man?
46:04What's your response to Stephanie's claim?
46:09This is ridiculous.
46:11Let's talk about how she got here, shall we?
46:14She didn't get here off her talent.
46:17Oh, no.
46:18She got here by clinging to powerful men.
46:21It's no real experience.
46:23No skill.
46:24Just a man's name and a man's money.
46:27Security!
46:28Get her out of here.
46:29Wait.
46:30If she has something to say, let's hear it.
46:33Dorothy, it's a trap.
46:35I'm not afraid of the truth.
46:37Let's see what she's got.
46:38What's going on?
46:44So tell us, Dorothy.
46:45How did you get here?
46:48Did you use your relationship with John Bennett to land the part?
46:51A homework, are you saying?
47:09Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?
47:13You're the one who sent me this photo, right?
47:15How about you take another one?
47:17This time, of my lovely family of three.
47:20Dorothy.
47:20Dorothy.
47:21Dorothy.
47:21Dorothy.
47:21Are you really John Bennett's daughter?
47:23Yes.
47:24I bet you never ask her their last name.
47:26It's Bennett, by the way.
47:29So, Dorothy is the producer's daughter.
47:33Dorothy.
47:34So, did you use your father to get the part?
47:36Uh-huh.
47:37So, it's just nepotism, then.
47:43Even if she didn't fuck her way to the top,
47:46she still only got her through her connections.
47:48Whether you like it or not,
47:49my performance speaks for itself.
47:50And everyone here saw it.
47:52But she was actually really good.
47:54Yeah, she handled the mobbing.
47:56Oh, are you saying that everyone here is wrong?
47:58You think you're so clever, don't you?
48:01Fine.
48:02You can act a little bit.
48:04But let's be real.
48:05You didn't land this role on your own.
48:07You just snapped your bony little fingers and let daddy give you a role.
48:11How else would a nobody like you have landed yourself the lead otherwise?
48:15Dorothy isn't just a nobody.
48:17She wrote Liar's Game.
48:21She is SQ.
48:24Dorothy is SQ.
48:29How can that be possible?
48:32Liar's Game is a masterpiece.
48:33There's no way you could have written it.
48:35You don't have to believe me.
48:37Just let the credit speak for itself.
48:43How can this be true?
48:46Oh, I'm so happy.
48:48I'm so happy.
48:50Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer and the famous writer SQ.
48:53Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
48:59Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?
49:01Stephanie Marsbecher, Linda Marsbecher and Ellie Marsbecher.
49:04I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.
49:06No, no, no, no.
49:07I didn't do anything wrong.
49:08This was all Stephanie's idea.
49:09I didn't do anything.
49:17This whole time she was actually telling the truth.
49:21Dorothy's SQ.
49:23She's genius.
49:26That's why she always had a book in her hand.
49:30Always writing something on her laptop, always lost in her thoughts.
49:36Didn't even see her.
49:40Guess I was blind on her love.
49:43I don't deserve her.
49:53I've missed this place.
50:06Don't you remember?
50:07Of course I do.
50:09I was just a little girl.
50:09We saw so many films here.
50:12We would just stay in our seats and talk about life and everything.
50:19But you just made me feel like I could face more anything really.
50:23God, I used to be so nervous back then.
50:29About everything.
50:30About the future.
50:34But you just made me feel like I could face more anything really.
50:39Yeah.
50:41Someone had to be there to make sure you didn't ever think everything.
50:43I remember you used to unpick every little detail like it was a life or death situation.
50:48You know, Dorothy.
50:57Life's not been the same without you.
51:01Even when we parted ways, I...
51:03I always knew that we would find each other again.
51:07I don't care what we've been through.
51:13I don't care what's happened.
51:14All I know...
51:17Is that I need you now.
51:21More than ever.
51:21More than ever.
51:35And the award for Best Adapted Screenplay goes to...
51:40Dorothy Bennett with Liar's Game!
51:45Wow.
51:47Best Screenplay.
51:49What, shall I start calling you Your Majesty?
51:51I think that's a great idea.
51:53Why don't I start now?
51:56You deserve this.
51:58Your Majesty.
52:00Every bit of it.
52:02Now.
52:04Since you won, I think this calls for a reward.
52:08Oh yeah?
52:11And what would that be?
52:14Me.
52:21Yes?
52:33It's almost all right.
52:33You know what?
52:34Oh.
52:34I think it is unknown.
52:35He twisted up everything about...
52:36That is true.
52:36My niece is much of all...
52:38My husband is just me.
52:38What?
52:38That's what the might come...
52:39That's possible.
52:40Right?
52:40They're going there.
52:41Of course.
52:41That's not that bad.
52:42It's not that one.
52:44What?
