Short filmTranscript
00:00In this town, it's Oxygen, Niles Gilmore, Hollywood's biggest action star and my top
00:16client.
00:17And once he's sober and on time, I publish his stream.
00:23For a star, rhyming is everything.
00:29Sophie Miller, fresh face, on the verge of something big if she makes all the right moves.
00:36Stand tall, this is your life.
00:44Knowing your handiwork?
00:45Late as usual.
00:46Not late, just perfectly timed.
00:50Ethan Prescott, Niles' agent, the guy I've known longer than anyone, dependable, intelligent,
00:55and annoyingly charming.
00:59Nice dress.
01:00Nice bowtie.
01:01Just needs a little adjustment here.
01:05How's our golden boy?
01:07Is he behaving himself, or are we in for his new trying takes?
01:10He's playing nice.
01:12Give it an hour.
01:17What the hell, man?
01:18You can't just hit someone!
01:21Or less.
01:25Well, that escalated quickly.
01:27Stay close.
01:28I need to handle this before I hit someone else.
01:30Damage control.
01:31Got it.
01:33What the hell, man?
01:34You can't just hit someone!
01:41Niles?
01:42What happened?
01:43This loser shoved this camera in my face.
01:45It's on my bad side.
01:47I didn't even touch him.
01:48He's being dramatic.
01:49You hit someone in front of a hundred cameras.
01:51We need to fix this.
01:52Don't say that.
01:54Let's go home.
01:56Let's not make this a bigger deal than it needs to be.
01:58We can solve this quietly.
02:00How about $1,000 a year?
02:03$5,000.
02:04I'll pay along with it.
02:07Fine.
02:09You better be good for it, or else I'm going straight to the press.
02:12It'll be fine.
02:14Oh, man!
02:15I dropped my camera again!
02:17I'm so clumsy!
02:19Thank you for helping me pick it up, Niles Gilmore!
02:22So sweet.
02:23Great work, man.
02:32That was impressive.
02:33In Hollywood, connections are a currency.
02:35Without me pulling the strings, even the brightest stars burn out.
02:38But I keep them shining.
02:49Ethan?
02:50Ethan?
02:52What are you doing here?
03:20Good morning, Ms. Harrington.
03:21Your schedule's been moved around slightly.
03:23There's a last-minute addition of attention in the client meeting.
03:26Liam Sterling.
03:27Liam Sterling?
03:28That hot guy from the new rom-com?
03:31He's looking to revamp his image.
03:33Interesting.
03:35When does he arrive?
03:36Mr. Sterling!
03:38Welcome to Harrington.
03:39What's coming up next?
03:41Later, I guess.
03:42I'm on the way.
03:43I used to work at the company.
03:48You know, it's a habit.
03:49I don't know why guys are all over me.
03:50But I'll tell you this.
03:51I don't know why guys are all over me.
03:52Why?
03:53Because I'm not.
03:54And if you need to know, I do.
03:55And you know why?
03:56Because I'm not.
03:57And you know why?
03:58Because I'm not.
03:59So tell me, why not?
04:00Because I'm not.
04:01So tell me, why not?
04:02Because I'm not.
04:03And you don't know it?
04:04Because I'm not.
04:05Why not?
04:06Harrington PR, I am...
04:08I know who you are.
04:10Call me Liam.
04:17Heard a lot about you.
04:19I'd say you're the best one to visit.
04:21I'd like to think that I'm good at what I do, but
04:24flattery won't get you any discounts.
04:26No discounts necessary.
04:28I'm here because I need a real change.
04:31Go on.
04:32I'm sick of being the guy who's shirtless when he's acting.
04:35I mean, the heartthrob thing, it's been fun.
04:38But it's not who I am.
04:40I want substance.
04:41Roles that really challenge me.
04:43If you're serious about this,
04:45it's not gonna be easy.
04:47And it won't happen overnight.
04:50Are you ready for that?
04:53Sounds easy with you by my side.
04:55Alright.
04:57We'll have to change your public persona.
04:59No more sexy magazine covers,
05:02and no more fitting into that heartthrob image.
05:04We'll focus on redefining you as a serious actor,
05:07and you'll have to be selective about the projects you take.
05:10Taking roles with depth.
05:13Range.
05:14That's exactly what I want.
05:16I've been waiting for somebody to tell me
05:18that it's okay to say no to the next rom-com
05:20where I spend more time in the gym
05:22than with the script.
05:24Well, consider those two questions.
05:27But this is a partnership.
05:30You'll have to trust me.
05:32100%.
05:34I trust you, Brooke.
05:37You're the person I've been looking for.
05:42What might happen?
05:44I'm all in.
05:49Brooke?
05:53Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
05:56You weren't interrupting anything.
05:58Is this your boyfriend?
05:59I, uh...
06:00No, um...
06:01This is my close friend, Ethan.
06:03Oh.
06:04Well, nice to meet you.
06:05I'm Liam Sterling.
06:06I know who you are.
06:07I work closely with your agent.
06:09I brought you a coffee.
06:10I'll just sleep with Margaret.
06:12Thanks.
06:18He's a nice guy.
06:19You sure he's not your boyfriend?
06:21I'm single.
06:22Mr. Sterling.
06:23Uh, Liam.
06:24Remember?
06:25Liam.
06:27I have a feeling this is gonna work out really well.
06:29I'm, um...
06:31I'm sure it will.
06:32You know,
06:33I think this is the start of a beautiful relationship.
06:53Hello?
06:56Who's there?
06:57I'm armed.
06:59What?
07:04Don't shoot.
07:05Liam?
07:06Thought I'd surprise you.
07:09With...
07:10Wine and flowers?
07:12I don't have to butter you up because I didn't make an appointment.
07:16I mean, I guess this works.
07:25So...
07:26What's the occasion?
07:30Some say I'm cutthroat.
07:32Do they?
07:34No, you don't look so cutthroat to me.
07:37Appearances may be deceiving.
07:39And yet...
07:41Here I am with you.
07:43Well, someone's gotta keep you out of trouble.
07:48Maybe.
07:49Or maybe you're just avoiding what's really going on here.
07:53And what would that be?
07:55When the real chemistry's right here.
07:57Do we not?
07:59I don't know what you're talking about.
08:03I'm sure you don't.
08:06This wine is great.
08:08Great taste.
08:11So are we gonna do something about this?
08:12Or are you just gonna sit here enjoying the wine?
08:17Okay.
08:20I'll let you get some rest.
08:22No.
08:24Stay a little longer.
08:27I'll stay as long as you want.
08:50This is so unprofessional.
08:51I'm not gonna fire you.
08:53Are you gonna fire me?
08:55No.
09:05Shit.
09:08Shit.
09:12No good morning kiss?
09:13I don't think so.
09:16Come on.
09:19Last night was a mistake.
09:21Fun.
09:22But still a mistake.
09:25Yeah, I don't think I agree.
09:27You're my client.
09:29I'm supposed to be helping your career, not helping you.
09:32You know.
09:35You were great last night.
09:38Now, can you please just get dressed?
09:41If anyone caught us, this could ruin my career.
09:44Not to mention what it could do to your rebrand.
09:46Do you still want to be known as the slutty heartthrob?
09:50Well, I wouldn't say slutty.
09:55Everyone else would.
09:57I mean, what serious actor sleeps with their publicist?
10:01The sooner we move past this, the sooner that I can get you and Lena and your career moving forward.
10:08Sound good?
10:12No.
10:14But if that's what you want, then I guess I don't have a choice.
10:20Is that what you want, Brooke?
10:23Yes.
10:25That's what's best.
10:27Whatever you say.
10:28I'm sorry.
10:30At least we got it out of our systems.
10:32Call you later.
10:33Ugh.
10:49Last night was amazing.
10:50The movie sucked.
10:51Aside from my scene, I met this guy at the after party.
10:54He's a bit older.
10:55A screenwriter.
10:56Ugh.
10:57Come on.
10:58Ugh.
10:59An old screenwriter?
11:01You are Sophie Miller.
11:03You can do so much better.
11:05I know that look, Brooke.
11:06You're up to something.
11:07What makes you think that?
11:09You love playing matchmaker.
11:10Admit it.
11:11You're trying to set me up.
11:13Half of Hollywood's power couples owe their happiness to me.
11:17You can be one of them.
11:19Well, what about you?
11:20When are you going to find your someone?
11:23Oh, I'm happy being single.
11:25Plus, I got enough on my plate managing everyone else's love lives.
11:30You've never thought about it?
11:34Of course I have.
11:38But then I remember all the drama that comes with it and...
11:42I like the way my life is.
11:44Dramatically.
11:46I think you're the only person in this town who doesn't crave drama.
11:50Alright, drama queen.
11:52We have a party to get ready for.
12:00This is quite the party.
12:02Only the best parties are held on stove.
12:04You're leveling up.
12:13So, whose party is this anyway?
12:15Dylan's.
12:17Dylan Parker's?
12:18You were serious about setting me up.
12:20When do I say anything just for fun?
12:22I thought this would be a good opportunity for you two to meet.
12:25You're playing matchmaker again, aren't you?
12:27Trust me. You'll thank me later.
12:28Hi, Dylan.
12:30Meet Sophie.
12:32Yeah, I know Sophie.
12:34We met at that Kim read for the horror flick, right?
12:36You remember that?
12:38How could I forget?
12:40And damn, Brooke.
12:42You gotta warn me when you dress like this.
12:45Sophie's the real star here.
12:47You guys should get to know each other.
12:49Hi, Sophie.
12:51Let's grab a drink.
12:53Find a quiet place to chat.
12:55That'd be great.
12:56That'd be great.
13:04What the?
13:07What the?
13:09Oh my god, your dress!
13:11You bitch! This dress is sponsored!
13:13Watch where you're walking.
13:15Who the hell are you?
13:17Just a crazy fan sneaking into a Hollywood star house?
13:20You better pay for this.
13:22Otherwise, I could ruin your career with a single click.
13:24I'm sorry.
13:26I'll cover the cleaning for you.
13:31Oops!
13:33Accident.
13:35I'm sorry.
13:37Your ugly thrifty sword dress looks even worse.
13:41I guess some people still haven't learned that in Hollywood there are cameras everywhere.
13:45Wait, is that Liam Sterling?
13:47I just watched his movie yesterday.
13:49Damn, he looks even hotter in person.
13:51And if anyone's career is getting ruined at one point,
13:54it won't be Brooke Harrington's.
13:56She's an A-list publicist.
13:58Ruining reputations is her job.
14:00So if I were you, I would watch my mouth around her.
14:06Take this.
14:10I didn't expect to see you here.
14:12I wasn't expecting to see you here either.
14:14You looking for somebody to put on your matchmaking list?
14:17Depends.
14:19What you had in mind?
14:21A girl who's smart,
14:22strong,
14:24independent.
14:26Maybe she runs her own business.
14:28Makes her way around Hollywood.
14:30Sounds like she's hard to find.
14:33Almost impossible.
14:40Actually, there is someone that you should meet.
14:43Yeah? Who's that?
14:45Lena Turner.
14:47She's one of my clients.
14:49She's one of the best directors in the business.
14:50I'll introduce you two.
14:52Could be good for you.
14:54Is that so?
14:56Lena!
14:58Meet Liam Sterling.
15:00Liam Sterling.
15:02It's so great to meet you.
15:04I've admired you and your work for years.
15:06The feeling is mutual.
15:08Congratulations on the horror film.
15:10You two should work together.
15:12We are working on a new direction for Liam.
15:14Something more serious.
15:16That would be amazing.
15:18I'll leave you two to chat.
15:20Okay.
15:25Well, that was fast.
15:33Of course.
15:39Wow.
15:41You look beautiful.
15:43Ethan, shouldn't you be holed up in an office
15:45somewhere working late as usual?
15:47Don't look so bummed.
15:48I just get invited to these things too.
15:50It's not always just the pretty people.
15:52Speaking of pretty people...
15:55You look jealous.
15:58Why would I be jealous?
16:00Speaking of jealous...
16:02What made you run out so quickly this morning?
16:04Oh, I didn't want to get in the way of you and um...
16:07What was it?
16:09Liam.
16:11He's just a client, Ethan.
16:13You alright?
16:15Huh?
16:16I asked if you were alright.
16:18Yeah, just a little overcrowded.
16:20Well, let's get out of here.
16:22I promised Sophie I'd stay with her.
16:25Hmm.
16:27Looks like she'll be okay on her own.
16:30Alright.
16:32Whisk me away then.
16:34That's the spirit.
16:39Who would have thought that ten years later
16:41we would be so successful?
16:43I knew we would be.
16:44I didn't.
16:46When we came out here right after high school
16:48we had zero plan.
16:50You still wanted to be an actress back then.
16:52Hey, don't make fun of me.
16:54You knew how good I was in Romeo and Juliet.
16:56Oh, who could forget?
16:58But...
17:00People change.
17:02They grow up.
17:04I don't think you're that different.
17:06Liar.
17:08Hey, take that back.
17:10Okay?
17:12I'm super different.
17:14Like when we were kids.
17:16And how do I make you feel, Ethan?
17:19Uh, um...
17:21Well, you're, uh...
17:23You're infuriating.
17:25And...
17:27You're like sunshine when it wets you.
17:30Oh, fuck you up, bro!
17:34Fuck you up, bro!
17:36Is that our actual movie guy?
17:38Yeah, he's the one that keeps beating up people
17:40for no reason.
17:42Niles!
17:43Stop!
17:45Move, Li!
17:47You're gonna get in the way.
17:51Oh my god, are you okay?
17:53You fucking got me, huh?
17:55Doctor, come!
17:59Well, he's not gonna get very far.
18:01Fair action, sir.
18:03He's an embarrassment to somebody.
18:08Let me see yours.
18:10It's broken. I know it.
18:11Well, we won't know unless you let me look.
18:18What do you think?
18:21I don't think it's broken.
18:23I think you're gonna be just fine.
18:27You're always taking care of me.
18:30Well, someone has to.
18:32You always get yourself into trouble.
18:35Why are you always the one who has my back?
18:37I guess...
18:39You mean a lot to me.
18:41That's why.
18:43You sure it's not just because you like control?
18:45I might be a control freak,
18:47but that's not why I stick around.
18:52Then why do you?
18:54You think?
19:05We can't.
19:09Why not?
19:12We can't.
19:14Friends don't do this to each other.
19:17I didn't realize friendship had so many rules.
19:20Hey, you're...
19:22You're a loopy, and I'm tipsy.
19:25How many of those pills did you even take?
19:28I don't know, maybe two?
19:30Why should I take more?
19:34The dosage is one.
19:36You're high off your ass right now.
19:39Okay.
19:41Alright.
19:43Now time to get sleep before anything gets too crazy.
19:47What's so wrong with things getting out of hand?
19:49Live a little.
19:51Alright.
19:53Good night, Ethan.
19:55Worked out fine.
20:05Oh my god, Niall!
20:06Oh my god, Niall!
20:09I didn't even know this got leaked.
20:11Seems to be an ongoing trend with Niall's.
20:15Thanks for bailing me out, guys.
20:17Real warm reception.
20:19What's the deal?
20:21Whatever. Can we just go grab something to eat?
20:23Niall's, I'm going to have to let you go.
20:27I'm sorry.
20:29You're a liability.
20:31You're joking, right?
20:33You hit me in the face.
20:34I wouldn't hit anyone in the face.
20:36It wasn't because it was you. I was in the moment.
20:39That's almost worse.
20:41Way worse.
20:43This is bullshit.
20:45I hired you as my publicist to deal with this.
20:47So make it go away.
20:49I'm a publicist to the stars.
20:51I get clients' brand deals and magazine covers.
20:54I make them movie stars.
20:56I can't make criminals look good.
20:58This is so unfair, Ethan.
21:00Tell her she's being insane.
21:02I'm dropping you too, Niall.
21:04After you pulled out of your three-picture deal,
21:06no one wants to work with a serial assaulter.
21:08No, fuck this.
21:10Fuck you, and fuck you too.
21:12Okay, you're going to pay for this, I swear.
21:18Well, you took that one.
21:20Yeah, he's going to pay for my nose job if this doesn't heal right.
21:26Your nose is fine.
21:28Perfect, Ethan.
21:30Mind dropping me at the office?
21:32You have a card.
21:34I'm taking pain medication.
21:36Trust me, you don't want me driving.
21:38Okay.
21:43Are you sure you're good to go, Adam?
21:46I am more than good.
21:48I am incredible.
21:51Hey, seriously, how am I going to explain this to the team?
21:54Tell them you fought an action star.
21:56They'll understand.
21:58That's actually really badass of you to do that.
22:05It's not my problem anymore.
22:15This is Brooke.
22:17You might hold all the power in Hollywood right now,
22:19but I'm coming for you, Brooke Harrington.
22:25Who is this?
22:27Someone who could make your life a lot more difficult
22:30if you don't start to play nice.
22:32Oh, Sophie.
22:34Hi. It's you. What's up?
22:36I had the best night with Dylan.
22:38He is so charming.
22:40We really clicked.
22:42You were so right.
22:44That's good.
22:46I told you so.
22:48Yeah, but there's one tiny real flaw.
22:50He kept bringing you up.
22:52Me?
22:54Why?
22:56I don't know.
22:58I don't know.
22:59Me?
23:01Why?
23:03I don't know.
23:05It just felt like maybe there was something between you.
23:07Dylan and I? No, no, no.
23:09He's nothing more than a client.
23:11Okay, I just didn't want to step on any toes.
23:13I really like him.
23:15You're good. He's all yours.
23:17Great.
23:19Are we still going to the launch party tonight?
23:21Um...
23:23I think I'm just going to sit this one out.
23:25It's been a lot lately.
23:26Brooke?
23:28Definitely not.
23:30Can I bring Dylan as my plus one?
23:32Uh, yeah.
23:34That's a good idea.
23:36You guys should walk the carpet together.
23:38So soon?
23:40Everyone does it. It's Halloween.
23:42You are the best, Brooke.
23:49Brooke, you came.
23:51This is crazy.
23:53I can't believe you booked this movie.
23:54Well, they had another actress,
23:56but she had a total meltdown,
23:58so Dylan just threw my name into the ring,
24:00and they booked me.
24:04Why are you thanking me?
24:06Well, if I would have never met Dylan,
24:08then I would have never booked this movie.
24:10You're basically better than my agent.
24:12I'll have to agree with you on that one.
24:14Speaking of agents...
24:16Um, Ethan reps Dylan Parker.
24:18You two seem to be spending a lot of time together recently.
24:20Is that... to work?
24:22The usual.
24:24Mm-hmm.
24:26Just work.
24:28He's cute, though.
24:30I'm serious.
24:32It's nothing more than that.
24:34He's like my oldest friend.
24:36Whatever you say.
24:38But you have to introduce me to him soon.
24:40I need a new agent,
24:42and I've heard great things about him.
24:44He is the greatest.
24:46Anyway, I have to get to my wardrobe trailer.
24:48Wish me luck.
24:50You are going to do great.
24:51Don't want to miss it all.
24:53How's it going?
24:55It depends.
24:57You come here to check on Sophie or me.
24:59It better be me.
25:02Well, of course.
25:04How's set?
25:06Well, you know, the usual.
25:08Long hours, a lot of takes.
25:10But Sophie, she is just... she is killing it.
25:12I mean, if her looks aren't going to make her a star,
25:14her acting definitely would.
25:16I always knew she had it in her.
25:18I've been chatting with some of the producers
25:19about the early dailies.
25:21Sophie's performance is top notch.
25:23You should take her on as a client, Ethan.
25:25Her agent sucks.
25:27Well, it seems like you just want to share
25:29all your clients with me, don't you?
25:32You know, between you and me,
25:34you're the real secret weapon here, Brooke.
25:37I didn't know I was directing this film.
25:39You might as well be.
25:41You know you could be in charge of this.
25:43All right, well, if you're going to take all the credit,
25:45I'm going to go make some calls,
25:47but don't let this guy sweet talk you too much, all right?
25:49Yeah, I did want to chat with you.
25:51Run some things by you.
25:53Some PR stuff.
25:55Alone.
25:59I'm kind of busy right now,
26:01but what did you have in mind?
26:03Yeah, I mean, the PR strategy is good.
26:05I just feel like I could use
26:07a little more personal attention.
26:09You have weekly check-ins on a full day.
26:11What more do you want?
26:13We need some one-on-one time.
26:15Together.
26:17I mean, you are impressive, and like...
26:19Beyond hot, Brookey.
26:21Um...
26:23Dylan, let's focus on your career.
26:25That's what we're here for, right?
26:27I think we could make magic together.
26:30Don't you?
26:36I need this.
26:38Call me.
26:41Who is this?
26:43Have you realized your wrongs?
26:44Wrongs?
26:46Wha...
26:48What are you talking about?
26:50The sooner you bring Niles Gilmore back to glory,
26:53the safer you'll be.
26:55Niles, is this you?
26:57Look, I'm not bringing you back on as a client.
27:00This isn't Niles.
27:02Niles, that's exactly what you would say if it was you.
27:05This isn't fucking Niles!
27:07Then who are you?
27:09Someone who would do anything for Niles Gilmore.
27:12And I won't stop.
27:14Until you pay for his downfall.
27:19Hey, Ethan.
27:21Have you been getting weird phone calls?
27:23No, just the regular actors being desperate and trying to become movie stars.
27:27Why, what's wrong?
27:31Psycho fan is trying to get back at me for firing Niles.
27:35Back at you? How?
27:37I don't know yet. They're being really vague, and it's really annoying.
27:40Just block their number.
27:41I tried, and then they called me back on a new one.
27:44You actually seem kind of worried. Do you want me to do something about it?
27:50What exactly are you going to do, Ethan?
27:52Hey, I am a big, strong guy.
27:56I can beat him up, or give him a chokehold, or something.
28:00You're acting like I didn't just watch Niles Gilmore kick your ass the other night.
28:04No, I think you're thinking of someone else.
28:07Yeah, oh, right.
28:08Want me to hang out with you for the day? Keep you company?
28:15No, I have to get downtown for a magazine cover shoot for Liam.
28:19But I'll let you know if I get any more creepy calls.
28:25You're going to be okay. Just call me if you need anything else, okay?
28:29I forgot you were a hugger.
28:31Thanks, though.
28:39Sexier. Give me sexy, sexy man.
28:45No, the camera's appointed to here.
28:50How's everything going?
28:52Not well. They're not interested in the new Liam Sterling.
28:55All they want is a sexy, sexy man.
28:57It's okay, I'll take care of this.
29:01Hi, Enza.
29:03I'm Brooke, Liam's publicist.
29:05So, we are going for a new direction with Liam.
29:09More serious, less sexy.
29:12So, why don't we try this?
29:14The magazine wants a sexy, shirtless, sweaty, sensual...
29:18Unfortunately, that is not what I agreed upon with the creative team.
29:22So, we're either going to have to use the suit, or you're going to have to find a different cover star.
29:28At the last minute!
29:30This is how it's going to have to be, Enza.
29:31Ah, cazzo!
29:33Fine! Suit, change, hurry!
29:37Mamma mia!
29:43Ben fatto!
29:46Bravissimo!
29:48This is way cool.
29:50So fun to see him in the zone.
29:52Liam, what are you doing here?
29:54He invited me to see him in action.
29:56Did he really?
29:58That's so sweet of him.
29:59He really is a sweetheart.
30:01It's not often you meet a guy that handsome that isn't also a total douchebag.
30:05That's definitely rare in our line.
30:08Okay, great job! We got the shot!
30:15Made it!
30:17Thanks for having me. You were great out there.
30:22The suit worked out nicely.
30:25Yeah, thanks again for that.
30:27I don't know what I'd do without you.
30:29Me neither.
30:31What time is the dinner?
30:33Dinner?
30:37Yeah, it's at 7.
30:39We're going to go check out the new sushi spot on Sunset.
30:41I heard the sashimi is to die for.
30:43Liam got us reservations.
30:45Super cool.
30:47That sounds fun.
30:49Thanks again for introducing us, Brooke.
30:51Liam is amazing.
30:53Of course. That's my job.
30:55You guys have fun.
30:57Sashimi!
31:00What the hell are you doing?
31:02He's your client.
31:04You don't like him.
31:06You're a professional.
31:08Stop.
31:17You're a strong, independent woman.
31:21You don't need him.
31:26Good morning, Brooke.
31:27You have back-to-back meetings today,
31:29and Liam Sterling's on the line.
31:31He said it's urgent.
31:33Can you tell him I'll call him back?
31:35Yeah.
31:40We position Liam as a modern, thoughtful, leading man.
31:43He's pushed past this heartthrob phase,
31:46and now we need to highlight his depth.
31:48His next role will be key in redefining his public image.
31:51I like it, but don't you think this shift is too sudden?
31:54His fan base may not be ready.
31:56They want apps.
32:01Don't worry.
32:03I have a plan for that.
32:05As you can see here...
32:12There you are.
32:14I've been trying to reach you all day.
32:19I've been in meetings.
32:21What are you doing in my office?
32:22Margaret.
32:24Brooke, I needed to see you.
32:26We have to talk about the other night.
32:28Liam, we can't.
32:30Not now.
32:34We can't just ignore the chemistry between us.
32:52Okay.
32:54The other day was intense,
32:56but we need to keep things professional.
32:58You have a rebrand to focus on,
33:00and I have a company to run.
33:02I just don't want things to be weird between us.
33:05And I don't want that either.
33:07But we need to cool it,
33:09for both of our sakes.
33:11So, Dylan asked me to be his girlfriend.
33:14We're hard-launching on social media.
33:16That's great.
33:18So, you seem happy.
33:20Oh, my God.
33:22I heard the funniest rumor this morning.
33:24People are saying you and Liam Sterling
33:26are in a thing.
33:32Me and Liam?
33:34We're in a thing.
33:36We're in a thing.
33:38Me and Liam?
33:40What?
33:42You know how people talk.
33:44I told them it's ridiculous,
33:46but you two do spend a lot of time together.
33:48Liam is just a client, nothing else.
33:50Right.
33:52LA people love to gossip.
33:54Anyway, I think Dylan is really serious about us.
34:03Who was that?
34:05Just work.
34:07You're still coming to set tonight, right?
34:09I have that huge scene.
34:11I won't miss it.
34:37Cut!
34:39Dylan, I said cut!
34:41Stop punching!
34:45I didn't even realize
34:47Lena was directing this film.
34:49Brooke, she said you're a client.
34:51It's hard to keep working lately.
34:53Are you okay?
34:55You're not your usual
34:57obnoxiously organized self lately.
35:01Okay, I'm going to throw up.
35:03I'm going to throw up.
35:05I'm going to throw up.
35:07I have to tell you this
35:09just because I trust you not to repeat it,
35:11but I am beyond overwhelmed.
35:14Did you get any more of those weird calls?
35:16Yeah, I got a message today,
35:18and that on top of work
35:20and some other stuff
35:22that I'm dealing with.
35:24It's just too much.
35:26I think you should get some rest.
35:28I can't.
35:30I promised Sophie I'd stay for her scenes.
35:32She's nervous.
35:35She's lucky to have you.
35:37She's like a little sister to me.
35:39Plus, if I left now,
35:41I wouldn't get any sleep anyway, so...
35:43Do you want me to stay over?
35:45Sleep on the couch,
35:47just so you're not alone.
35:49Like a sleepover.
35:51That actually sounds really nice, Ethan.
35:53Thanks.
35:55I owe you.
35:57Moving on to the next scene.
36:05Dylan,
36:07what are you doing here?
36:09It's a woman's dressing room.
36:11You know what I'm doing.
36:14I literally don't.
36:16You know what you want to see with this?
36:18You don't have to pretend anymore.
36:20You want
36:22to see Dylan
36:24fucking work.
36:26No.
36:28Ew!
36:30I don't want any part of you, Dylan.
36:32You're my client. I'm your publicist.
36:34Not to mention you're dating my best friend.
36:35Yeah, she's chill as fuck.
36:37Then act like it.
36:39Because she really likes you.
36:41And if you're not serious about her,
36:43it's going to hurt.
36:45I'm only dating her for the publicity.
36:47I'm going to drop her ass as soon as the movie comes out,
36:49and then you and I can finally work together.
36:51You and I?
36:54We are never going to be together.
36:56I'm not even remotely interested in you.
36:58If you try this shit again,
37:00I'm dropping you as a client.
37:02Ah!
37:04Motherfucker!
37:06What the fuck, babe?
37:11Brooke, did you see that?
37:13This seems so much fun.
37:15Is everything okay?
37:17I'm just not feeling too well.
37:19Oh, no.
37:21I hope you're not coming down with something.
37:23Probably just overworked.
37:25Go home. Get some rest.
37:27Are you sure?
37:29I'm positive.
37:31I need you well-rested
37:33so that we can party this weekend, okay?
37:35Okay, fair.
37:37But do you have a ride home?
37:39Dylan's driving me.
37:41I'll see you.
37:43Ready to get out of here?
37:45Beyond ready.
37:55I'll just drive. Let's get out of here.
38:02Alright, the windows and doors are locked
38:04and the alarm system's on.
38:06Thanks for checking.
38:08You're safe.
38:10Of course, leaving those messages
38:12is just playing a really bad prank
38:14or Snyle's being childish again.
38:16You really think so?
38:18I do.
38:20But it's okay to be scared.
38:22I'm here for you.
38:26I don't know how much you mean to me.
38:28Alright, goodnight.
38:29Can you please sleep here with me?
38:31You sure?
38:33Positive.
38:35I'll always be here for you.
38:52Can't sleep?
38:54No.
38:56You either?
38:59There's something that's been on my mind.
39:02There's something I've been wanting to do.
39:15I've wanted this for so long.
39:19Me too.
39:21More than anything.
39:29I love you.
40:00Come here.
40:12Good morning.
40:14I made the coffee unbearably strong
40:16just the way you like it.
40:18Amazing.
40:20So you feeling better now?
40:22Huh?
40:24After what?
40:26A full night's sleep?
40:27With me, I finally felt a little safe.
40:29No problem.
40:31Plus your bed's infinitely comfier than mine.
40:33That's sad, Ethan.
40:36Hey, mind if I shower real quick before work?
40:38Yeah, you can use the guest bedroom.
40:40Cool.
40:44Ethan?
40:46You need a towel.
40:53Mom, I forgot to do this.
40:58Okay, we stuck the towels.
41:01Thanks.
41:03Wanna jump in with me?
41:05Shut up, Lee.
41:09I should probably go get that.
41:11Want me to check it out?
41:13No, no, it's okay.
41:15You shower.
41:17I'll be quick.
41:28Liam, what are you doing here?
41:30You've been ignoring my calls.
41:32We're supposed to be distancing.
41:34I'm over that.
41:36Look, can I come inside?
41:38No.
41:40No, I don't think that's a good idea.
41:42You're being really weird.
41:44No, I'm being cautious, okay?
41:46People can't see us together.
41:48There's already rumors swirling.
41:50So let rumors be rumors, especially if they're true.
41:55No one has to know that.
41:57So what if we're attracted to each other?
41:59So what if I want to see you, Brooke?
42:02I don't care, alright?
42:04I like being around you and I want to explore our connection.
42:09I can't do this, okay?
42:11Brooke, come on, wait.
42:19Your shower head's incredible.
42:21Got to get your interior designer's contact info.
42:23Yeah, they're great.
42:25I'll get it to you.
42:28Who's at the door?
42:30Um...
42:32Just some girls selling cookies.
42:36Do you want to get breakfast?
42:38No, I'm just going to head to the office early.
42:41You never turned down breakfast.
42:43Just not hungry.
42:45See you later.
42:53So why'd you call me here?
42:55You want to offer me representation again?
42:57I'd rather eat glass, Niles.
42:59I want to know why you're leaving me these insane messages.
43:06This isn't for me.
43:08Don't bullshit us, Niles.
43:10Tell the truth.
43:12I won't be mad.
43:14I didn't send you this.
43:16What about the creepy voice calls?
43:18The voice changer didn't...
43:20What phone calls?
43:22Brooke, look, I don't have time for this, okay?
43:24Why don't you just admit it?
43:25This is too violent, okay?
43:27Did you do this or not?
43:29Brooke, let me tell you something.
43:32I have court dates, no movie deals,
43:35and two excessively large mansions
43:37that I'm trying to figure out how to pay for
43:39to keep out of foreclosure.
43:41So no, I didn't have time to go over pranks
43:43that you're dealing with.
43:45Okay.
43:47Do you believe him?
43:49I do.
43:51So can I go, or are you going to try to accuse me
43:53of something else I didn't do?
43:56No.
43:59We should call the cops, right?
44:01Get an investigation going?
44:03No, not yet.
44:05Thanks, partner.
44:12The customer you're trying to reach
44:14is not available.
44:16Please call back.
44:19Hi.
44:21I questioned Niles.
44:23Please call me ASAP.
44:25Okay.
44:35Sophie, what's going on?
44:37I got your text.
44:39What's the emergency?
44:43He broke up with me, Brooke.
44:45What?
44:47When? When did this happen?
44:49After our last scene.
44:51He said it was because of you
44:53that you didn't think I was good enough
44:55and he's lying.
44:57Then why would he blame you?
44:59I don't know.
45:01I guess he's using me as an excuse.
45:03I feel so stupid.
45:05I really liked him.
45:07We even got these matching bracelets.
45:09You're not stupid, okay?
45:11Dylan messed up.
45:13You deserve better.
45:15Are you sure you didn't tell him to break up with me?
45:17I swear, okay?
45:19He's just avoiding accountability.
45:21He's a douche.
45:23How am I supposed to finish this movie with him?
45:25You're a professional.
45:27Don't let him ruin this for you.
45:29You're right. Yeah.
45:31Okay.
45:33One second.
45:35It's Ethan.
45:40Ethan, what are you doing here?
45:42Sophie and I have a meeting.
45:44You haven't been answering any of my calls.
45:46Busy day.
45:49Sophie.
45:51What's wrong? Are you okay?
45:53Dylan broke up with me, but
45:55I'm okay.
45:57I'm so sorry to hear that.
45:59Do you want to reschedule the meeting?
46:01No, no, no. Absolutely not.
46:03I've been waiting to talk to you.
46:05Great. So have I.
46:07Um, look.
46:09I will see you after I wrap here tonight.
46:12Can you just shut the door on your way out?
46:14Yeah, sure.
46:16Um, Ethan.
46:18Call me back whenever you can, okay?
46:20It's really important.
46:22Yeah, okay.
46:25Ugh.
46:32I was good. It's a big deal.
46:34Damn.
46:36You fucking liar.
46:38What are you talking about?
46:40Why the hell did you lie to her?
46:42You made it very clear that you were never going to sleep with me.
46:44I was only dating her to get close to you.
46:46You're disgusting.
46:48I'll make sure your career crashes and burns
46:50if you don't admit that you lied to her.
46:52I didn't lie to her.
46:53Okay.
46:55I lied. I lied.
46:57I'm sorry.
46:59I'll apologize to her tonight, okay?
47:01You trying to kill my star?
47:03He's a fool when stars are clacking.
47:06Can we talk?
47:08In private.
47:13Wow, nice office.
47:15Sit down.
47:17Lena, what's wrong?
47:19Did something happen on set?
47:21You tell me.
47:23Something's definitely going on,
47:25just not on my set.
47:27I don't understand.
47:29I'm talking about you and Liam.
47:32You introduced us,
47:34pushed us together,
47:36and all the while you were sleeping with him?
47:38No, it's not like that.
47:40Bullshit.
47:42Everyone's talking about it.
47:44You and Liam sneaking around behind my back.
47:46You think I'm dumb?
47:48Lena, I didn't mean for this to happen.
47:50There is something going on between us, but...
47:52You set us up like pawns in your game,
47:54and now you want him for yourself?
47:56No, I truly wanted you two to be happy.
47:58You don't care about me.
48:00You only care about your selfish matchmaking games.
48:03You didn't care what this would do to me.
48:05That's not true, Lena.
48:07I'm sorry.
48:09You're sorry you got caught.
48:11Luckily I'm over him.
48:13He really is just a shallow, pretty boy.
48:15Even with your shitty PR memory.
48:17We're done.
48:19Get out.
48:21Get out.
48:47Sophie, I said seven, it's almost eight.
48:49Sorry, we got distracted.
48:51Is that so?
48:53He's so funny.
48:55You have to tell Brooke about the story of your dog
48:57in the summer house?
48:59You mean my dog eating the lasagna
49:01that his mom made for dinner?
49:03I know that one.
49:05It was there.
49:10Hey, can you go stir the pot on the stove?
49:12I have to talk to Ethan about a shirt client.
49:14You made dinner?
49:16On it.
49:18So, I talked to Niles,
49:19and he swear it wasn't him.
49:21I don't know if we should believe him, but...
49:23I mean, I kind of believe him
49:25because I have other suspects in mind.
49:27What do you think?
49:29I don't know, Brooke.
49:31Some people are good liars,
49:33even those you wouldn't expect.
49:35Yeah, but Niles isn't that good of an actor.
49:37No, he's not.
49:39But clearly you are.
49:41What are you talking about?
49:43I don't want to get into it right now, Brooke.
49:45I'm just dropping off Soph.
49:47Soph?
49:49Seize me, Brooke.
49:51Seize you? What does that even mean?
49:53I...
50:00I was just throwing Niles when this flew through the window.
50:03It wasn't me, I swear.
50:05What is it?
50:10I knew it.
50:12Knew what?
50:15What are you talking about?
50:17Oh my God.
50:20I want to see.
50:24Holy shit, Brooke.
50:26I lied.
50:28You lied to me about the rumors.
50:30You said it was nothing.
50:32I didn't mean to.
50:34I wasn't trying to lie to you.
50:36You weren't trying to lie to me.
50:38We're supposed to tell each other everything.
50:40We're best friends.
50:42I didn't know how to tell you, Sophie.
50:44So what was I, Brooke?
50:46Just a backup?
50:47No, Ethan, it wasn't like that.
50:49You knew exactly what you were doing.
50:51What?
50:53I thought we were finally going to admit how we felt about each other.
50:57More than friends.
51:01Ethan, I didn't mean to hurt you.
51:04You hurt us both, Brooke.
51:06I defended you when everybody was talking behind your back.
51:09I know, I just...
51:11I didn't want it to be real.
51:13I thought that if I ignored it, it would just go away.
51:15Well, it's pretty real now, isn't it?
51:17I thought we had something, Brooke.
51:19Can't you feel it, too?
51:21Brooke, you need to figure out what you want.
51:24You can't keep playing with people's emotions.
51:26They're not a game, no matter how much you'd like them to be.
51:31I deserve better than this, Brooke.
51:33Ethan, I don't understand.
51:35I thought we were just friends. I didn't...
51:37Bullshit!
51:39After all these years, I figured you'd realize that what we had is special.
51:43You are special to me.
51:44Yeah, maybe when you're not falling into bed with some movie star.
51:47Wait!
51:49Save it, Brooke.
52:00Oh no!
52:02Did my brick end up in your perfectly pristine kitchen?
52:05Are you happy now?
52:07Not even close. You'll pay.
52:09Go to hell.
52:11I said go to hell!
52:15Whoa, wait. What did I do?
52:17Liam?
52:19I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else.
52:21Look, can I come over? I want to see you.
52:26Fine.
52:30Good old Hollywood rumor mill strikes again.
52:33It's not a rumor if it's true.
52:35It's a shame things between us had to cause so much drama.
52:37It's crazy.
52:39I can craft and control all of my clients' public images.
52:43Spin any story around.
52:46Make bad press good.
52:48Shape the way Hollywood sees them.
52:51But when it comes to people I actually care about, I'm powerless.
52:57I have this wall over everything.
53:00Everything's controlled.
53:02It looks easily managed.
53:04But no.
53:05In reality, it's such a mess.
53:08I've spent so long creating these perfect lives for everyone else.
53:15I think it's just time for me to be honest about mine.
53:18You know, you can control everybody else's image.
53:21But when it comes to your own life, sometimes the spotlight burns too bright.
53:25I should have understood the concept.
53:27For everyone.
53:29For you.
53:31For Lena.
53:33For Ethan.
53:36You know, Ethan's not totally innocent in all this either.
53:40He's been keeping things bottled up for way too long.
53:43I should have just been honest with him.
53:45Now I'm afraid that I lost him for good.
53:47You won't lose me.
53:49To be determined.
53:51Maybe it's time to stop worrying about control.
53:53Just let things happen naturally.
54:01Liam, I'm sorry.
54:03You love Ethan?
54:05Yeah.
54:08I do.
54:10I understand.
54:12And for what it's worth, I think you should go get what you want.
54:15You're not upset?
54:17I am.
54:19But I would never want to stop you from following your heart.
54:29Hi, Ethan.
54:31Surprise, Brooke!
54:33It's you.
54:35Ethan and Sophie are with me.
54:37Let's just say they're safe for now.
54:39You have Sophie too?
54:41Where are you?
54:43Oh, you'll know soon enough.
54:45But here's the thing.
54:47If you want to see them again, play by my rules.
54:49I'll do anything.
54:51Check your texts.
54:55Let's go.
54:57I'll drive.
55:06Wait.
55:08If things get out of control, you need to run.
55:10Okay? This doesn't involve you.
55:12I'm not leaving your side.
55:14Okay.
55:18Hello?
55:26Welcome to the final act, Brooke.
55:28I'm so glad you could make it.
55:30Let them go.
55:32Thanks for bringing another famous face to me.
55:33I'll make a great addition to my kill team.
55:35No one's getting killed tonight.
55:40No!
55:42Well, I guess it's time for the big reveal.
55:52Niles.
55:54You swore that it wasn't Brooke.
55:56I'm a fucking actor.
55:58All we do is lie.
56:00You know, Brooke, for someone who thinks they hold all the power,
56:01you really are just another stupid, stupid Hollywood girl.
56:06You're insane.
56:08Tell me what you want so we can get this over with.
56:10What do I want?
56:12I want you all to feel like I felt when I was betrayed.
56:17You think you're untouchable.
56:19PR queen.
56:21Always in control.
56:23But, Brooke, you're just like the rest of us.
56:27Dispose of it.
56:29This is all because of your stupid ego.
56:31Ego?
56:33No.
56:35Brooke, this is about your company.
56:37Liam.
56:39Sophie.
56:41Ethan.
56:43They stole your attention from me.
56:45But I'm taking it back.
56:47You're wrong, Niles.
56:49PR isn't about power.
56:51It's about helping people.
56:53And I tried to help you, but you're Beyoncé.
56:55Nope.
56:57Brooke, be honest with yourself.
56:58Helping people.
57:00Offending people.
57:02To your will.
57:04Do you really think that you can play puppet master forever?
57:14You're quick.
57:16But not really.
57:20Come to help.
57:22I don't think so.
57:29Show's over, Niles.
57:31I'm a fucking movie star.
57:33You can't kill me.
57:35I'm in control.
57:49Brooke, you really kicked his ass.
57:51Oh my god, you fucked him up.
57:53Brooke, I'm so sorry.
57:55No, this is all my fault.
57:56No, Brooke.
57:58I've wasted the last ten years of my life hiding the way I felt about you.
58:02I don't want to hide anymore.
58:04I'm so desperately in love with you.
58:06I don't want to spend another day of my life without you by my side.
58:09I will not stop fighting until I win you back from Liam.
58:12Ethan, Liam and I were nothing, okay?
58:14I'm in love with you.
58:16Okay?
58:18And I'm sorry that I've been hiding...
58:27I love you, Ethan Prescott.
58:29I love you, Brooke Harrington.
58:33Guys, I'm...
58:35I'm still tied up.
58:41No, it's cool.
58:43I got it.
58:44Liam, I'm so glad you're okay.
58:48Hey, can I ask you something?
58:50Anything.
58:52I look, like, really heroic, right?
58:53I mean, until I got knocked out.
58:55Yes.
58:57It was fair.
59:02What do you say we get out of here?
59:04That sounds like a good idea to me.
59:06Um, guys?
59:08Where's Niles?
59:10He must have ran off.
59:12He won't be very far.
59:14He's not a very fast runner, right?
59:24Shh.
59:26Ahh!
59:33You did good, Brooke.
59:36Couldn't do it without you.
59:38What do you say we take to the carpet, Niles?
59:40I'd go anywhere with you.
59:53I love you.
59:55I love you.
