00:00Congratulations to Dorothy for winning the best original screenplay at the Rising Stars

00:11movie release.

00:13We did it.

00:14Three years ago, I was the most sought-after screenwriter.

00:20Three years later, I fell in love with Drake, keeping my identity a secret for the sake

00:26of his pride.

00:26And I thought we were happy until...

00:33Hi.

00:41Where the hell have you been?

00:42I told you that Stephanie was coming to help set up for my brother's birthday, and instead

00:46of helping us, he just disappeared.

00:49What, did you bail so you could go and laze around or something?

00:51You know, people say that the only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because

00:56you're nothing more than a free maid.

00:59Otherwise, why would someone like you be allowed to marry my brother?

01:03What?

01:04A maid?

01:05I just hid my identity for the sake of this marriage.

01:08Well, I think Drake's idea is great.

01:10Great.

01:11And it could be really good for us.

01:15But the risk is way too high.

01:17Dad.

01:18Dad.

01:19Please.

01:20Okay.

01:21And I'm sure you don't want him to know the real reason why I'm investing.

01:24Think about it, Dorothy.

01:25Since he got married, has he ever even touched you?

01:26How often does he actually come home?

01:27He doesn't even want to look at you.

01:28Let alone sleep with you.

01:29That's enough, Ellie.

01:30We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.

01:31I'm sure he wouldn't be happy to see us like this.

01:32Everybody knows that if it weren't for her, you would be married to Drake instead of being

01:36my late brother's widow.

01:37Ellie!

01:38Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.

01:39Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.

01:40What?

01:41I'm not married, Dorothy.

01:42I'm not married, Dorothy.

01:43I'm not married, Dorothy.

01:44Since he got married, has he ever even touched you?

01:45How often does he actually come home?

01:46He doesn't even want to look at you.

01:47Let alone sleep with you.

01:48That's enough, Ellie.

01:49We're all here to celebrate Drake's birthday.

01:50I'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 instead of being my late brother's widow.

01:55Whatever happened between me and Drake is all in the past.

01:58Besides, I'm carrying Nick's baby.

02:05It's the perfect time.

02:09Oh my god!

02:10Dorothy just pushed Stephanie into the pool!

02:13What?

02:20Quick, save Stephanie!

02:21She's carrying Nick's baby!

02:25Quick, get in there!

02:40He chose Stephanie over me.

02:46My baby!

02:47My baby is gone!

02:48Why would you do this to me?

02:52How dare you!

02:53You pushed Stephanie into the pool to try and kill her and her unborn baby!

02:57Are you happy now that Stephanie's baby's gone?

02:59I didn't do it!

03:00I know you don't want me here!

03:02I told you, whatever happened between me and Drake is in the past!

03:05You can hate me however you want to, but how could you be so cruel as to kill my unborn child?

03:10I didn't do it!

03:11You know me, I would never do that to Stephanie!

03:14Apologise to Stephanie.

03:16I'm not going to apologise for something I didn't do!

03:18I'm not going to apologise for something I didn't do!

03:20Apologise to Stephanie right now or I will divorce you!

03:29Divorce?

03:30If you apologise right now, then I'm willing to give you another chance!

03:40It's been three years, Drake.

03:43I gave up everything to be your wife.

03:45You've always kept to the shadows, Dorothy.

03:48I already have a life.

03:49And right now, I just want to focus on being on my marriage with Drake.

03:56I thought you would always be by my side, but I was wrong.

04:00The only reason you're allowed to stay by Drake's side is because you're nothing more than a free maid.

04:05Since you got married, has he ever even touched you?

04:08He doesn't even want to look at you.

04:12Fine!

04:15Let's get a divorce.

04:18There's nothing left in my heart.

04:25Drake's nothing without me.

04:30My ring!

04:32My ring is gone!

04:34Well, you must have taken it.

04:35Why would I take her ring?

04:37Well, look how quickly you packed your suitcase.

04:39You're probably seeing someone else.

04:41Dorothy.

04:44Yes?

04:45We were married for three years.

04:46Were you seeing someone else?

04:47Of course she was.

04:48She's probably been cheating on you for a really long time.

04:51Couldn't wait for the divorce.

04:54So what if I was, huh?

04:56And what about you?

04:57Still hung up on your so-called sister-in-law?

05:00What gives you the right to talk about me?

05:02I only look after Stephanie because she's my brother's widow.

05:05Yeah.

05:06But you were actually seeing someone else.

05:08Who is it?

05:09Big talk!

05:11Don't bring me down to your level.

05:13I'm not like you.

05:15Since your sister-in-law lost her ring.

05:21Why don't you take...

05:22Take...

05:28This one.

05:31You've been waiting for this for a long time, haven't you?

05:38Bye.

05:39And so I left.

05:49This is ridiculous!

05:51We, the Bennett family, are one of the four major production companies in the world.

05:55I let him marry my daughter, and even invested in his business.

06:00How dare that Drake do this to my daughter!

06:04Look, it's actually a good thing, Dad.

06:08Now we know who he really is, and he has no idea who I am.

06:12Still, you're my daughter.

06:14I can't let him do this to you.

06:16If it weren't for you, I would not have considered investing in his company.

06:19We're gonna pull our investment immediately.

06:21Yes.

06:22It's time to cut him off.

06:24He doesn't deserve you.

06:26I'm over Drake.

06:28If we withdraw the plans now, it's going to hurt the family business.

06:32He's not worth it.

06:35Honey...

06:37Why don't you just take a vacation?

06:40You know, just put all this aside and take some time out for yourself.

06:44Yeah.

06:47No.

06:48I'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 that many people want to buy the movie rights to Liar's Game.

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 it.

07:19Oh.

07:20So that's why they're making it.

07:21Because of you.

07:23I'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.

07:33It's more than good.

07:35It's phenomenal.

07:37Christopher is right.

07:39I'm taking my life back.

07:44I'm going to adopt it myself.

07:47You are?

07:48Yes.

07:50I will.

07:51Well, good for you.

07:53I won't tell anyone I'm asking you.

08:05Congratulations to Aria Wong for winning the best director.

08:13This is my close friend from college.

08:16Aria, I need your help.

08:18I want to adopt the Liar's Game myself and I want you to direct it.

08:23Of course.

08:25Alright.

08:27There's just one thing.

08:29I want to keep my identity as the writer a secret.

08:32I don't want anyone to know.

08:35Especially not the team.

08:36SQ.

08:37Are you sure?

08:38But why keep it a secret?

08:40I just want people to focus on the story itself.

08:43Got it.

08:44Your secret's safe with me.

08:48My god.

08:52Dave.

08:53It's a bit weird.

08:55Ever since news got out about our movie, my phone has not stopped ringing.

09:00Really?

09:07It's Stephanie.

09:11Yeah, just take it.

09:13Hello?

09:17Hello, Miss Wong.

09:18I've heard Liar's Game is being made into a movie.

09:21I'm interested in playing the lead.

09:22Can we arrange an audition?

09:26I'll speak to the writer and I'll let you know.

09:30Thank you, Miss Wong.

09:33What do you think?

09:36Anyone can audition, right?

09:37Asunga's there.

09:38Write for the role.

09:41What happened between me and Stephanie is not important here, so...

09:45Okay.

09:47I'll call her back and let her know.

09:49Mm-hmm.

09:59What about me?

10:02Can I be your hero?

10:08Oh, you mean, uh...

10:10The film, right?

10:12I've...

10:13I've never considered anyone else.

10:18I have to take this.

10:20Hi?

10:25You know, I'm not just talking about the film, Dorothy.

10:30It's okay.

10:32I can wait.

10:34I've waited this long.

10:41Well, well, well.

10:42Look who it is.

10:46Why are you here?

10:48Oh, I see.

10:49You're the production assistant.

10:52Well, do your job.

10:54Get me a water.

10:57Stephanie.

10:59Get your own water.

11:00I'm not your PA.

11:02Look.

11:04It's my first day on set, and I want to buy coffee for the crew.

11:07Why don't you be a doll and mark down everyone's order?

11:11Are you deaf?

11:13I'm not a PA.

11:15Here's your tip.

11:17Go on.

11:19Show some respect, Stephanie.

11:21Do you know who she is?

11:25What were you doing?

11:26Oh, no.

11:27She can't know.

11:28I'm asking you.

11:32I want to keep my identity as the writer.

11:34It's a secret.

11:35I don't want anyone to know.

11:37Especially not the team.

11:42What do you mean?

11:44Who is she?

11:46No one but a lower PA, I'm sure.

11:53Isn't that right?

11:55Well, actually, she's...

11:58She's just a PA.

12:01You're right.

12:03So why don't you show me a lower PA, your acting skills?

12:08Maybe I'll be impressed even by who the copies myself.

12:11Watch this.

12:16I loved you once.

12:19Or so I thought.

12:22But now I see that it was all just a lie.

12:26A beautiful...

12:30Painful lie.

12:34You took everything from me.

12:38My dreams.

12:40My future.

12:45See?

12:46There's no soul.

12:48That's not acting, it's just...

12:50reciting lines.

12:53When are you sure how it's done?

12:54What?

12:56Go on.

13:00Go on.

13:01Go on.

13:22I loved you once.

13:25So I thought.

13:26I was just a lie.

13:28But now I can see.

13:30It was all a lie.

13:32A beautiful, painful lie.

13:37You took everything from me.

13:40My heart.

13:42My dreams.

13:44My future.

13:46And for what?

13:47For your own personal gains.

13:53How is that possible?

13:55Dorothy, that was perfect.

13:57The role is yours if you want it.

13:59No!

14:01This role is mine!

14:02I'm the one with the investment.

14:03Without me, there's no funding for this movie.

14:05Your investment?

14:06Do you even know who she is?

14:08Who is she?

14:10Who is she?

14:12Who is she?

14:14Who is she?

14:16Who is she?

14:18Who is she?

14:20Who is she?

14:22Who is she?

14:24Who is she?

14:26Who is she?

14:28Who is she?

14:29Who is she?

14:31Who is she?

14:32As you know, no one but a PA.

14:35Dorothy, this movie is important to Stephanie.

14:39I mean, why are you here? You're not a real actress.

14:41What are you doing? You're trying to ruin her career.

14:42You're trying to get back at me by ruining her career.

14:45I'm not ruining anything.

14:47If she can't handle the role, that's on her, not me.

14:51You can't blame this on anyone else.

14:53You embarrassed her in front of everyone.

14:55I mean, I know what you're doing.

14:56You're the one pulling all the strings here.

14:58You're trying to make her fail so you can take her place.

15:01She's using this whole thing to get to you, Drake.

15:04She's been jealous from the start.

15:05Trying to ruin my chance just to get back to you.

15:08Okay, no. I don't want to fight anymore.

15:10Let's just take a look at the script and maybe we can work something out.

15:14You were just so damn selfish!

15:17You already care about yourself!

15:20Just give Stephanie her role back!

15:22You know what?

15:23I didn't want to do this.

15:26But I will.

15:28I'll take the role.

15:30I'll play the lead.

15:34I'll play the lead.

15:36No way! You can't be serious!

15:37She's not even a real actress!

15:41Dorothy's performance was far stronger than yours.

15:44Everyone in the room can see it.

15:46I'm so glad you've agreed to do the role.

15:52Right, it's settled then.

15:54The lead roles go to Christopher and Dorothy.

15:58I will double my investment if you give Stephanie a role.

16:04I'll just give you a role.

16:05I'll give you a role.

16:07I never thought I'd see the day my ex-husband would go this far.

16:12For his sister-in-law.

16:14I can always count on you, right?

16:20I will double my investment if you give a role to Stephanie.

16:24You two are just such...

16:26Okay, look.

16:28If the money's on the table, there's no reason to turn it down.

16:33Let's just give her a part.

16:35We have nothing to lose.

16:37I guess that'll be fine.

16:39I'll talk to SQ.

16:46Your father's production company is already the biggest investor in your movie.

16:50So why take Drake's money?

16:51Don't...

16:53Don't still have feelings for Drake, Dee.

16:56No!

16:57He's an asshole!

16:59Come on.

17:01I've got an idea.

17:04Why don't we just give her a character that'll make her miserable?

17:10Well, Mr. Santaro.

17:12I feel bad now.

17:13I only wish you didn't have feelings for Drake anymore.

17:24How did she land herself the role?

17:26She's practically a nobody.

17:28No fan base, no real experience.

17:30Just one good scene.

17:32It doesn't make sense.

17:36Find out everything you can about Dorothy.

17:39I want all the dirt.

17:40Director, there must be a mistake.

17:42I'm only a side character and not even in the main scene.

17:44You wanted a role, we gave you a role.

17:46I came in with an investment.

17:48Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.

17:49Even a small role in Escu's film is going to do great things for your career now.

17:50It was not the time for you to be messing around.

17:51Fine.

17:53Two take one.

17:56Action.

17:57investment. Well, you're more than welcome to take it back and leave the set.

18:04Even a small role in Eskew's film is going to do great things for your career. Now is not the time

18:08for you to be messing around. Fine.

18:19Two, take one. Action. Lily, you are my best friend. How could you do this to me? I'm sorry,

18:25but this is... What the hell are you doing? It's part of the scene!

18:36Okay, take it again from this lap. Action.

18:44Cut. Stephanie, why aren't you saying your lines? You have to keep going in the scene.

18:51I think you've had enough for today. Yeah, but we'll just try again tomorrow.

18:55Did you see her face? Absolute goal.

19:06I mean, she got what she wanted. She asks for a role, and that's what we gave her, so...

19:11Seriously, her performance is all over the place. Maybe we should just cut down on her screen time.

19:17And we all know the film's better without her slowing us down.

19:22You're right.

19:24I'm not going to let anyone ruin your story.

19:26So, if you can just give me something that's a bit more...

19:36Something about her death.

19:43What's going on with my scenes? Why have so many of them been cut?

19:47It's a collective decision.

19:49Fuck that. Let me talk to the writer.

19:53The writer is SQ, and as you know, they never show their face, so their decision is final.

20:00I'll see you on set in five.

20:05Oh!

20:06Now it all makes sense.

20:22Now it all makes sense.

20:24That's the head of the production company.

20:27No wonder she got the role.

20:29Let's see how John's wife feels about that.

20:36Everyone, I have an announcement to make.

20:44Today will be Stephanie's last day on set.

20:51You really think I don't see through your little games?

20:55Somebody will be walking out that door today.

20:57But it won't be me.

20:59You really think you can get away with this?

21:02Sleeping your way up?

21:06John's wife is on her way.

21:08Let's see how you talk your way out of this one.

21:11Slut.

21:16That's enough!

21:20So were you the one who was stalking and secretly taking photos?

21:24What?

21:25Scared the truth is going to come out?

21:27Someone had to expose her for who she really is.

21:30So you admit it.

21:32You did it.

21:33Damn right I did.

21:34And I'd do it again if I had to.

21:38You don't know who you just cross!

21:40Oh, I know.

21:42Just some rich old bastard throwing a tantrum.

21:45I sent those photos to your wife, too.

21:47And now your mistress is about to be exposed.

21:51Yeah.

21:52Security.

21:54Stephanie is banned from the studio.

21:56Make sure she never sets foot here again.

21:58You can't just do that.

22:00Oh, this is insane.

22:01Well, I have rights!

22:02I was only telling you the truth!

22:04She is a mistress!

22:05A loose woman!

22:06A lady of the night!

22:07Oh!

22:15Is it true that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?

22:17Well, otherwise, why would he come onto the set and get me banned from the movie?

22:21That's unbelievable.

22:23And he humiliated me.

22:25He had me dragged off the set like a criminal.

22:27You should have seen it.

22:29I'm not going to let her just ruin her reputation like this.

22:33I mean, this whole mess is just making us look like fools.

22:37Dorothy's always been trouble.

22:39I mean, first she goes off with a married man and now this.

22:42I don't know how you put up with her for three years.

22:46You should have got a divorce earlier.

22:50Stephanie, are you 100% sure that Dorothy is John's sugar baby?

22:54It's the only explanation!

22:56She's clearly nothing but a slut!

22:58Oh!

23:00Drake, Stephanie is your sister-in-law.

23:04Now, you need to take care of her and forget about Dorothy.

23:08Can't you see she's the one behind all of this?

23:10She was sleeping her way to the top.

23:14Killing Stephanie's unborn child.

23:17And John dragging her off the set.

23:19You should be sticking up for Stephanie.

23:25I'm not going to let her do this to you.

23:40So you think you can just walk away from what you did like nothing happened?

23:44I didn't walk away from anything.

23:46You did.

23:47You chose Stephanie over me.

23:49Remember this one?

23:50She's my sister-in-law.

23:51I'm so sick of hearing this.

23:54You have feelings for her and I'm just tired of it.

23:57You're out of your mind if you think I'm going to let you get away with this.

24:01You do what you want to do.

24:03But for now, get out!

24:06Why?

24:10We were married for three years.

24:14And we never-

24:15Oh, you have to get away with this fucking mic!

24:16Let go of me!

24:17Hey!

24:27No wonder you want me to go.

24:30Just look at yourself.

24:32You're not the man Christopher is.

24:35Get out.

24:37Or I will call the cops.

24:38Just go!

24:49Are you okay?

24:55Worthy?

24:57Yeah.

24:57Remember, safety first.

24:59The lifeguard's right there if you need him.

25:02Okay.

25:05Anything you need, let the AD know.

25:07Okay, got it.

25:08Got it.

25:09Yeah?

25:17Here's a coffee for you.

25:19It's still early before the shoot.

25:21Take your time.

25:37Take your time.

25:38Take your time.

25:39Take your time.

25:40Take your time.

25:41Take your time.

25:42Take your time.

25:43Take your time.

25:44Take your time.

25:45Take your time.

25:46Take your time.

25:47Take your time.

25:48Take your time.

25:49Take your time.

25:49Something's wrong.

26:19That's not acting.

26:21She's in trouble.

26:28Where's the lifeguard?

26:33Where's the lifeguard?

26:48Stay with me, Josh.

26:49Where the fuck is the lifeguard?

27:05Come on, Dorothy.

27:06Why did you do that?

27:31I'll do anything for you, Dorothy.

27:37Christopher risked everything without hesitation.

27:41How could I have been so blind?

28:01Well, I wasn't expecting that.

28:15Where were you?

28:16I'm sorry.

28:17Dorothy could have drowned.

28:18I'm sorry.

28:18I had a stomachache.

28:20I had to go to the bar.

28:21Make sure it doesn't happen again.

28:21Do you think that I should call Dorothy just to make sure she's okay?

28:31Are you still hung up on her?

28:34No.

28:34No, it's not like that.

28:36I'm just trying to be helpful.

28:37Don't you remember, Drew?

28:40She's the one who had me kicked out of the movie.

28:44She's the one who killed my baby.

28:46Not just my baby, but Nick's baby.

28:48I know I'm just your sister-in-law, and whatever happened between us is in the past, but I have

28:54no one now.

28:56No husband.

28:57No baby.

29:00What I have left is you.

29:03Don't you see through Dorothy yet?

29:06She's nothing but a slut, sleeping her way to the top.

29:08You don't know that.

29:09You know I'm right.

29:13Why else would John come onto the set and stand up for her?

29:16Not just John, but Christopher too.

29:18She's sleeping around with anyone she can find.

29:20She's a whore.

29:21Shut up!

29:31You want war?

29:34I'll give you war.

29:38Do it.

29:40Make sure Dorothy feels every bit of it.

29:44Breaking news.

29:49Unknown actress seduces Hollywood heartthrob.

29:52Rising star or opportunist.

29:54Actress Dorothy's shocking affair with Christopher.

29:57Christopher's new flame for a heartless gold digger.

29:59Dorothy!

30:00Liar!

30:01Liar!

30:02Hey, bitch!

30:03This is getting out of hand.

30:08Maybe we should just reveal her real identity.

30:11Let everyone know she's not just some random actress.

30:17Christopher, no.

30:19Dorothy, once we tell them who you are, there's no reason for them to attack you.

30:22There's someone behind this.

30:25And whoever they are, I'll make them pay.

30:33Fuck off.

30:34This can't be right.

30:46I'd die in the second scene.

30:49This must be Dorothy and John forcing S.Q. to cut me out.

30:53I won't get away with this.

30:54Betray, can you believe this?

31:01They've completely written me out of the script.

31:04Do you remember when Nick was lying in that hospital bed?

31:08You promised him you'd look after me.

31:10I've already lost my husband and my baby.

31:12I can't lose my career too.

31:14Don't worry.

31:16I'll get you your character back.

31:17There's a tape of a documentary that apparently S.Q. has always wanted.

31:38So, we win this bid and we gift it to them.

31:41Should be able to get you your rollback.

31:46Up next.

31:47A rare gem.

31:49The original film documentary chronicling the creative journey of none other than herself.

31:55Legendary screenwriter, Margaret Lane.

31:5850,000.

32:00What's she doing here?

32:03I don't know.

32:05I'm not going to let her win this.

32:0760,000.

32:1270,000.

32:16100,000.

32:17This is my grandmother's documentary.

32:22It's her legacy.

32:24She's the one who inspired me to become a screenwriter.

32:27I can't let it fall into the wrong hands.

32:28500,000.

32:32500,000.

32:41500,000.

32:45Trying to get you your rollback.

32:47Don't worry.

32:48I've got it covered.

32:49I can't believe this.

32:50Ladies and gentlemen, we are down to the final bid.

32:54Standing at a whopping 500,000.

32:58500,000 going once.

33:01500,000 going twice.

33:04Sold.

33:05To the lady in the blue dress.

33:06I can't believe this.

33:16You have no right to take that film reel with you.

33:23You have no right to take that film reel with you.

33:26What's going on?

33:36Ladies and gentlemen, I've just been informed.

33:39Miss Dorothy is in fact not an invited guest.

33:43Therefore, as per our rules,

33:46this documentary reel will not be released to Miss Dorothy.

33:49This is ridiculous.

33:50I was invited.

33:52Well, in that case.

33:54May I see your invitation?

34:01I did have it, I swear.

34:02I'm sorry, Miss Dorothy.

34:04If you do not have the invitation at hand,

34:06the documentary reel has to go to the second highest bidder.

34:09This is the protocol.

34:10Oh, you don't understand.

34:11I'm sorry.

34:30I'm sorry.

34:32These are the rules.

34:33The documentary reel will go to the honourable couple.

34:38Hmm.

34:40Stephanie, wait.

34:57Just sell it to me.

35:00Name your price.

35:01I'll pay you anything you want.

35:02It's really important to me, please.

35:03Why are you doing this?

35:06Are you just trying to get my attention

35:08by going after something that Stephanie wants?

35:11No, you don't understand.

35:13Just let me buy this.

35:15Whatever it takes.

35:17Oh, Dorothy.

35:19You think this is about money?

35:21Please.

35:22This isn't something you can just buy.

35:25Dorothy.

35:26What the hell are you doing?

35:28Why do you always have to go against her like that?

35:29This reel is important to Stephanie.

35:31She can use this to help her career.

35:34The career?

35:36Is this about your role being cut from the reel?

35:40Is that why you're doing this?

35:44I'm the writer.

35:45I can fix this.

35:47You can rewrite the story and bring your character back.

35:49Just...

35:50Just let me have the reel, please.

35:53You're the writer?

35:54Are you telling me that you're S.Q.?

35:57You.

36:01The writer S.Q.

36:02Can you give us a break?

36:04Look.

36:05This reel is important to Stephanie.

36:08End it.

36:09Don't make this harder than it has to be.

36:12You've been with Dorothy for so long

36:14and you don't even know her.

36:15Oh, and you do.

36:16Yeah.

36:16A hell of a lot more than you.

36:18Who the fuck do you think you are?

36:19Both of you, calm down.

36:20What the fuck?

36:20Scratched all over.

36:35It's ruined.

36:36Not even fit to be a gift anymore.

36:39I can fix this.

36:40Stephanie, I know someone who can restore it.

36:42Just sell it to me, please.

36:43Just name your price.

36:47Even if I had no use for it,

36:49I'd never give it to you.

36:50I want to be a writer like you, Grandma.

37:20I want to make movies like you do.

37:24This reel has more than pictures and sound on it.

37:29Really?

37:29Mm.

37:30An entire world I've captured.

37:32But it's just one way of seeing things.

37:36The magic is creating it yourself.

37:39Someday you will.

37:40Dorothy, I need you to go apologise to Stephanie

37:55and give her her role back.

37:58Apologise?

37:58To her?

38:00She destroyed the reel.

38:01And she wouldn't have done that

38:02if you hadn't pushed her.

38:03So go apologise or I'm pulling my funding.

38:10Look, Dorothy, let's be real here.

38:15Without Stephanie, who's going to invest?

38:19Even the production company will pull out

38:21if they hear that she's not involved anymore.

38:22Her name carries weight.

38:24Let's not pretend that your reputation's

38:26exactly stellar right now.

38:27Christopher's fans hate you.

38:30Stephanie's fans hate you.

38:32Even if you actually make this film,

38:34no one's going to support it.

38:36It will be buried.

38:39But if you apologise to Stephanie now,

38:42I can help you.

38:44I can control the press.

38:47I can control the narrative.

38:49I can actually give you a chance.

38:53What's so funny?

38:56What's so funny?

38:58Pull your funding.

39:00Do it.

39:01You'll see it does nothing for the movie.

39:03Okay.

39:04So what if I tell the production head

39:06to pull his funding too?

39:08Didn't I tell you that I know Mr. Bennett?

39:10Oh.

39:12Go ahead.

39:13Try it.

39:14You want me to call?

39:16Uh-huh.

39:17Fine.

39:22Hi, Mr. Bennett.

39:23It's Drake.

39:24Drake Mossbatcher.

39:26Yeah, I'm pulling my funding from Liars Game

39:27and I suggest that you do the same thing.

39:29I've seen it and it's a sinking ship.

39:33You're pulling out?

39:34Great.

39:35I'll take full control of the investment.

39:37Not a problem.

39:38So you slept with him?

39:48That's why he's supporting you, isn't it?

39:49Is this how you see me?

39:54The type of woman who would use her body to get what she wants?

39:56What other explanation do you have?

39:59You know nothing about Dorothy.

40:04Apologize to Stephanie, cut ties with Mr. Bennett and end this.

40:08Dorothy, come back to me.

40:09Whatever he's offering you, I'll match it.

40:10I'll double it.

40:11You must be a hell to your fucking mind.

40:15What makes you think I would ever go back to that living hell?

40:19Living hell?

40:20You heard me.

40:21Being married to you was a fucking nightmare.

40:24You made me believe you loved me.

40:28And then you had me waiting in vain for three years, Drake.

40:32You said you always protect me, but then when I need you the most,

40:37you just turned your back on me.

40:39I chose your sister-in-law over your wife.

40:45I've had enough, Drake.

40:46You were my prison.

40:48So just go back to your precious Stephanie.

40:54Why are you her?

41:07Are you okay?

41:09Yeah.

41:14What are you, Steph?

41:15What are you doing?

41:16Oh, you want me, don't you?

41:17Just kiss me.

41:18I'm all yours.

41:19Steph!

41:20You're Nick's wife.

41:21I've always thought of you like a sister.

41:22What's that?

41:24Sister!

41:26Funny.

41:27Don't you remember when you came to me the night Nick and I got married?

41:30Don't you remember what you said?

41:33Remember this?

41:34Yeah.

41:34Wanna marry Stephanie.

41:37God.

41:38You were practically begging me not to marry Nick.

41:40No, I shouldn't have said that.

41:41I shouldn't have said that.

41:42I don't know.

41:45What's that?

41:47Oh, it's nothing.

41:48What is that?

41:48No, Drake, no.

41:49Please.

41:51No.

41:52You lied about this.

41:57You lied about this.

42:01You said that Dorothy pushed you into the water, but this shows you shoving her in.

42:06It's a glitch.

42:07A glitch.

42:09So, do you actually expect me to believe that?

42:12What's this?

42:15Buying pills off the black market?

42:16The time I hit you're pregnant, it was you.

42:21This time when you blamed Dorothy like some sort of scapegoat and she was innocent the whole time.

42:26Drake, please, no.

42:26You have to believe me.

42:28I didn't...

42:28Do you know what?

42:29I've always thought of you like a sister.

42:31I've always taken care of you.

42:33I even thought that I loved you once, but that was before you were Nick's wife.

42:38You've changed.

42:39You've changed.

42:42You've changed.

42:44You're not the person I thought you were.

42:48I only looked after you because I thought it was my duty as Nick's brother to look after his widow.

42:54I guess there's no need to look after you anymore, huh?

42:57Well, what does that mean?

42:59Are you just going to throw me away?

43:01I'm not going to throw you away.

43:03But this is my house.

43:07When I'm back, I hope you'll be gone.

43:08But you can't just walk away from me like that.

43:11I've said everything that I need to say.

43:13Now I'm going to go find the person that I actually care about.

43:20Dorothy, this is all your fault.

43:27Let's take this bitch down.

43:38I'm going to say please.

43:46No.

43:48I was wrong.

43:51I misunderstood everything about you and about us.

43:58Can you please just hear me out?

43:59You think you can just come here and apologise?

44:02After everything.

44:05I didn't mean to hurt you.

44:08Look, I understand what I did, but it was just because of Stephanie.

44:11But anyway, can you please just forgive me?

44:13I don't need your apology, Drake.

44:17You let me down.

44:18You abandoned me.

44:21When I needed you the most.

44:23You used me.

44:25Manipulated me.

44:26And now you beg for my forgiveness?

44:29Oh God, please, just don't shut me out.

44:31I can fix this.

44:33I can fix that.

44:34I can do anything to Dorothy, please.

44:37No.

44:39You were never the person I thought you were.

44:42And I'm not either.

44:44I've moved on.

44:47I don't need you.

44:52Not like I used to.

44:54So I just did that.

44:56After everything.

44:57Yeah, that's it.

45:01I deserve better than this.

45:31We did it.

45:38Before you all celebrate this movie, there's something you should know.

45:43Dorothy is nothing but a homewrecker.

45:46What's going on?

45:48A glorified mistress who's been playing the part of a wonderful actress

45:51when all she's really done is ruin lives.

45:57This is you, Dorothy.

45:58Were you involved with a married man?

45:59What's your response to Stephanie's claim?

46:01This is ridiculous.

46:06Let's talk about how she got here.

46:09Shall we?

46:10She didn't get here off her talent.

46:12Oh no.

46:13She got here by clinging to powerful men.

46:16No real experience.

46:18No skill.

46:19Just a man's name and a man's money.

46:22Security!

46:23Get her out of here.

46:24Wait.

46:25If she has something to say, let's hear it.

46:28Dorothy, it's a trap.

46:30I'm not afraid of the truth.

46:32Let's see what she's got.

46:37What's going on?

46:39So tell us, Dorothy.

46:40How did you get here?

46:43Did you use your relationship with John Bennett to land the part?

46:46Yes.

46:47A homework, are you saying?

47:04Is there something wrong with me appearing with my own dad?

47:08You're the one who sent me this photo, right?

47:10How about you take another one?

47:12This time, of my lovely family of three.

47:15Dorothy.

47:16Dorothy.

47:16Are you really John Bennett's daughter?

47:18Yes.

47:19I bet you never ask her their last name.

47:21It's Bennett, by the way.

47:24So Dorothy is the producer's daughter.

47:28Dorothy.

47:29So did you use your father to get the part?

47:31So it's just nepotism, then.

47:38Even if she didn't fuck her way to the top, she still only got here through her connections.

47:43Whether you like it or not, my performance speaks for itself.

47:46And everyone here saw it.

47:48She was actually really good.

47:49Yeah, she handled the mobbing.

47:51Oh, are you saying that everyone here is wrong?

47:53You think you're so clever, don't you?

47:57Fine.

47:57You can act a little bit.

47:59But let's be real.

48:00You didn't land this role on your own.

48:02You just snapped your bony little fingers and let Daddy give you a role.

48:06How else would a nobody like you have landed yourself the lead otherwise?

48:11Dorothy isn't just a nobody.

48:15She wrote Liar's Game.

48:18She is SQ.

48:23Dorothy is SQ.

48:25How can that be possible?

48:27Liar's Game is a masterpiece.

48:28There's no way you could have written it.

48:30You don't have to believe me.

48:32Just let the credit speak for itself.

48:34How can this be true?

48:41Oh, it's so funny.

48:43Oh, it's so funny.

48:44Dorothy Bennett, you're the daughter of the producer and the famous writer SQ.

48:48Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?

48:53Why did you keep your identity a secret so long?

48:56Stephanie Marsbecker, Linda Marsbecker and Ellie Marsbecker, I'm arresting you on suspicion of defamation.

49:01No, no, no.

49:02I didn't do anything wrong.

49:03This was all Stephanie's idea.

49:04I didn't do anything.

49:05This whole time she was actually telling the truth.

49:16Dorothy's SQ.

49:18She's genius.

49:19That's why she always had a book in her hand.

49:25Always writing something on her laptop, always lost in her thoughts.

49:31I didn't even see her.

49:34I guess I was blind all along.

49:38I don't deserve that.

49:41I don't deserve that.

49:49I've missed this place.

50:01Don't you remember?

50:03Of course I do.

50:04We saw so many films here.

50:07We would just stay in our seats and talk about life and everything.

50:14But you just made me feel like I could face anything, really.

50:19God, I used to be so nervous back then.

50:24About everything.

50:26About the future.

50:29But you just made me feel like I could face anything, really.

50:36Someone had to be there to make sure you didn't overthink everything.

50:39I remember you used to unpick every little detail like it was a life or death situation.

50:43You know, Dorothy.

50:52Life's not been the same without you.

50:56Even when we parted ways, I...

50:59I always knew that we would find each other again.

51:05I don't care what we've been through.

51:06I don't care what's happened.

51:09All I know...

51:10Is that I need you now.

51:15More than ever.

51:16And the award for Best Adapted Screenplay goes to...

51:35Dorothy Bennett with Liar's Game!

51:37Wow.

51:42Best screenplay.

51:44What, shall I start calling you Your Majesty?

51:46I think that's a great idea.

51:49Why don't we start now?

51:51You deserve this.

51:53Your Majesty.

51:55Every bit of it.
