Heiress Returns Boss's Defense and Love
Transcript
00:00:00All right, here are your appetizers and your entrees will arrive shortly.
00:00:09She looks like the woman who's been out with Daniel Ross.
00:00:13Daniel Ross? You mean Hollywood's top emerging producer?
00:00:18There's no way she'd work at a place like this.
00:00:21You're right.
00:00:23Ava, what are you doing? Daydreaming?
00:00:26Why haven't you served that table over by the window yet?
00:00:29They've been waiting for 30 minutes.
00:00:31No, no, no. I don't want to hear your excuses.
00:00:33Get it done or go waste time in a different restaurant.
00:00:42Psst, Ava.
00:00:46Didn't I tell you if I don't call for you, don't show up?
00:00:48I have some news for you. Your husband, Mr. Daniel Ross, I hear he's hosting a banquet here tonight.
00:00:54I think he's even bringing along his cast from his latest production.
00:00:58I know. Today's our anniversary and I've been supporting him for three years, so tonight I'm going to reveal my true identity.
00:01:07Sam, it's finally my time.
00:01:10Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:11Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:15Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:30Daniel, you're not the only one with a surprise tonight.
00:01:53Birthday party just for me?
00:01:55Yeah.
00:01:56Aren't you worried your wife's gonna find out?
00:01:58Babe, I've been wanting to get rid of her for so long now.
00:02:02Tonight, she's gonna sign those divorce papers.
00:02:06But babe, I know you've been going through.
00:02:10So tonight, in front of everybody, I wanna tell you...
00:02:14Surprise!
00:02:23Ava, what are you doing here?
00:02:30Wow, babe, I see that your standards really were in the gutter.
00:02:36Daniel, what is this?
00:02:39Today's her anniversary, who is she?
00:02:42Well, since you're already here, meet Sophia, my future.
00:02:47What? I'm your wife!
00:02:50Let's be real.
00:02:54If you hadn't thrown yourself at me, we'd never be married.
00:02:57That's a lie.
00:02:58I was there for you and I supported you when no one else would.
00:03:01God, without me, you wouldn't even have your film company.
00:03:04My company?
00:03:05All you did was drain me.
00:03:11Sophia here, she's not only beautiful, but she's smart.
00:03:15She's driven.
00:03:17And she's gonna take our company to the top.
00:03:21What could she possibly do for you?
00:03:23I've just been cast as a lead role in V's new film, Scarlet Dreams.
00:03:28And Daniel's company will be working with the Hollywood elite.
00:03:31You probably don't even know who V is.
00:03:36Oh, I know exactly who V is.
00:03:40And trust me, she would never pick you.
00:03:44She'd never pick you.
00:03:54You really think V would pick you over me?
00:03:58Don't be a sore loser.
00:04:00How are you saying this?
00:04:02She's not even worth Daniel Roth.
00:04:04I know she's talking about the casting.
00:04:06He lies.
00:04:07Exactly.
00:04:08No wonder Daniel's never brought her to an event before.
00:04:11Too embarrassing.
00:04:12Yeah.
00:04:13What spell did she use to leech him off three years?
00:04:15That's enough, Ava.
00:04:17Stop making a fool of yourself.
00:04:20Let's just sign the divorce papers and be done with it.
00:04:24Hmm?
00:04:26Papers.
00:04:29Grandpa?
00:04:30Listen, everything has been arranged with the Bryant heiress.
00:04:33As the future of the Katzenberg family, you must secure this alliance.
00:04:38Understood, Grandpa.
00:04:39I won't let you down.
00:04:42There.
00:04:43We're finished.
00:04:44Perfect.
00:04:45And while we're at it, why don't you have 20 grand?
00:04:50Consider a payment for three years in my bed.
00:04:53Because that's all you're worth.
00:04:55Oh my god, Daniel, that's Versace!
00:05:02You crazy woman!
00:05:04You crazy woman!
00:05:13You crazy woman!
00:05:15Who the hell are you?
00:05:17She'll be in a light pink dress.
00:05:18Light pink dress?
00:05:19That must be her.
00:05:20Apologize to the lady.
00:05:21Let go of me!
00:05:22Who are you?
00:05:23I could be calling the cops!
00:05:24This is assault!
00:05:25Be my guest.
00:05:26Alright!
00:05:27Alright!
00:05:28Alright!
00:05:29God!
00:05:30You had me fooled, Ava.
00:05:47Pretending to be a sweet little innocent victim, while you were using my money to pay off your
00:05:53side bitch!
00:05:54You know what?
00:05:55You're absolutely right.
00:05:56You're right. And I'm not just keeping him. I'm marrying him.
00:06:09What?
00:06:19I'm Eva. You're one of the actors from Daniel's latest production, right?
00:06:23Look, I'm sorry for dragging you into it.
00:06:25Actor? I, uh...
00:06:27Okay, let's just cut to the chase.
00:06:29I would like to hire you to play my fiancé. Just name your price.
00:06:33Excuse me?
00:06:34Oh, come on. I mean, you wouldn't be taking gigs like this unless you needed the money, right?
00:06:40William.
00:06:44Um, you know, funnily enough, I'm in the market for a contract bride.
00:06:50Let's call it a mutual benefit.
00:06:52Perfect. Starting now, you're officially my fiancé.
00:07:01Um... Should... Should we...
00:07:05There you go.
00:07:11There you go.
00:07:12Hey, Grandpa. Uh, did you change the gate passcode? I can't get in.
00:07:21Hey, Grandpa. Did you change the gate passcode? I can't get in.
00:07:36That's the idea. How many times did I tell you not to screw this up?
00:07:41Miss Bryan told me you never even showed up to meet her.
00:07:44Wait, what?
00:07:46So, she's not Miss Bryan.
00:08:12Three years.
00:08:16Finally back.
00:08:23Hello?
00:08:24Hey!
00:08:25It's me!
00:08:26Oh, um, hey, what's up?
00:08:30I think you could do me a favor.
00:08:32Hey!
00:08:40Um, so what's this about suddenly having nowhere to stay?
00:08:45Well, uh, um, I've been out of work.
00:08:51I couldn't pay my rent.
00:08:53So, landlord kicked me out.
00:08:56Thanks for letting me crash.
00:08:58Come on.
00:09:00You live here.
00:09:12Don't tell me you're secretly loaded.
00:09:14Uh...
00:09:14Don't tell me you're secretly loaded.
00:09:23Uh, no.
00:09:26This belongs to a friend who married into money overseas.
00:09:29I'm just half-sitting.
00:09:30Oh.
00:09:31Uh, make yourself comfortable and I'll fix something to eat.
00:09:38Yeah.
00:09:38Yeah.
00:09:47Tim.
00:09:48Totally forgot it's been three years.
00:09:50It's three years since what?
00:09:51Ah!
00:09:52Um, so the fridge is empty.
00:10:09Yeah.
00:10:12Do you want pizza?
00:10:15Yeah.
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17Pizza works.
00:10:19All right.
00:10:25I'll go make an order.
00:10:27Right.
00:10:31Oh, you're...
00:10:45Hey, Peter.
00:10:46Run a check on this girl.
00:10:49Oh, my God.
00:10:58Mike.
00:10:59What?
00:11:00Ava has just told me that Daniel has divorced her.
00:11:03What the?
00:11:06I told you that bastard Daniel was no good for her.
00:11:09I swear if he hurt my Ava.
00:11:12That's it.
00:11:14Him and his company are dead.
00:11:16Hear me?
00:11:17They're dead.
00:11:18They're dead.
00:11:36Hey.
00:11:37You okay?
00:11:38You okay?
00:11:39Um...
00:11:40It's...
00:11:41It's my stomach.
00:11:42Here.
00:11:43Let's just get you down.
00:11:47Hey.
00:11:48I know you're the first person who's taking care of me like this.
00:12:00Other than my parents.
00:12:03Yeah.
00:12:04Do you think you ate something bad?
00:12:07It's just an allergy.
00:12:10I probably should have checked if the pizza had any soy before eating like half of it.
00:12:15But...
00:12:16Do you, uh, think you ate something bad?
00:12:18It's just an allergy.
00:12:20I probably should have checked if the pizza had any soy before eating like half of it.
00:12:25But I'll be fine after some rest.
00:12:26Okay.
00:12:27So I prefer eating like half of it, but I'll be fine after some rest.
00:12:33Okay.
00:12:44What are you doing?
00:12:53What are you doing?
00:12:54Um, you said you needed some rest.
00:12:57Taking you to bed.
00:12:58It's okay, I can walk by myself.
00:13:01No, you can't.
00:13:25Nice.
00:13:27I can walk by myself.
00:13:37I can walk by myself.
00:13:38I can walk by myself.
00:13:42Listen to me and I'll be serious.
00:13:44You're awake.
00:14:15Yeah, I just got up.
00:14:19Do you have an apron?
00:14:23Oil's a bit hot.
00:14:27Of course.
00:14:29Just let me help you.
00:14:30I don't know.
00:15:00Oh God, Eva! What are you doing?
00:15:15Who are they? I'm her-
00:15:17They are my best friend's parents. They've come to see if the house needs any repairs, right?
00:15:23And this is?
00:15:26He's, um, um...
00:15:34Nice to meet you. I'm, uh, Eva's fiancée.
00:15:39What?!
00:15:44Yeah, um, he's my fiancée, William.
00:15:56Ava! What the hell is going on?!
00:16:09Mom, look, I don't even know where to start.
00:16:11Okay, let's just say I got myself a husband.
00:16:15Husband.
00:16:16You picked up husband like you pick up a stray dog.
00:16:20Pretty much. Honestly, it's almost like the same thing.
00:16:23Oh, whatever. Alright, well that is not the issue.
00:16:26The real issue is that your father has called the shots in three hours.
00:16:32Daniel, and that shameless bitch's relatives won't even exist.
00:16:36What? No, we're not doing that. Why not?
00:16:38Anyone that harms my girl deserves to rot in hell.
00:16:42Your dad and I will tear them apart and feed them to the wolves.
00:16:46Okay, Mom, you just let me handle my enemies, okay?
00:16:49Tonight at the director's dinner, I will make the meat dirt in front of everyone.
00:16:53Trust me, we're not gonna let him get away with it.
00:16:57So, William, which family are you from?
00:17:09I, uh...
00:17:12I am...
00:17:21Which family are you from?
00:17:24Okay, Dad, he might not have some fancy pedigree, but he's a real go-getter.
00:17:36A rising star in the performing arts.
00:17:41A rising star?
00:17:45Ava, how can you still fall for the lies of these bottom-feeder wannabes?
00:17:51Haven't you had enough of their pathetic excuses?
00:17:54You didn't listen to us before.
00:17:56And now look where you are.
00:17:58Okay, that's enough. We gotta get going.
00:17:59Let's go. That's okay. Bye.
00:18:09I'm sorry.
00:18:10I know those words hurt.
00:18:15It's fine.
00:18:17You know, the way you treat your best friend's parents?
00:18:20It's like you see them as your own.
00:18:23Uh...
00:18:25My best friend's family owe us, so...
00:18:28They owe you? Why do they owe you?
00:18:31Well, when my friend's family were broke, my parents gave them $10,000.
00:18:38After that, they made it big, so...
00:18:41Our families kind of have, like, this special bond.
00:18:44Hmm.
00:18:56Big news!
00:18:57The eminent and elusive Oscar-winning director known as Director V,
00:19:01winner of last year's Palme d'Or, Golden Lion, and Golden Bear,
00:19:04is set to make a major public appearance this week
00:19:07and reveal their next film project.
00:19:09Hey, I've gotta go run an errand, so I'll, uh, be back later.
00:19:20Oh, I'm heading out, too. You want a ride?
00:19:22No, I'm going pretty far, but I'll, uh, see you tonight.
00:19:25This invitation must have fell. Glad I spotted it in time.
00:19:42Ava?
00:19:56Hey, what are you doing here?
00:19:59I, um...
00:20:01I'm meeting a producer for a lunch at the hotel.
00:20:04Oh, what are you doing here?
00:20:06Funny coincidence, uh, a friend recommended me a job here.
00:20:09Oh, that's great!
00:20:11For a moment, I thought you were here for the director's dinner.
00:20:13Oh, God, no. I mean, I'm just a regular housewife.
00:20:16I could never be in the film industry.
00:20:19I mean, I kind of thought you were going.
00:20:22I'd love to, but right now, no fame, no invite.
00:20:26Oh, I mean, don't worry. You'll get there soon enough.
00:20:29You can come with me.
00:20:32I'll see you tonight.
00:20:33Tonight, then.
00:20:34Great.
00:20:39Hmm.
00:20:49Please go ahead, sir.
00:20:54Please go ahead, man.
00:20:59Ah, shit.
00:21:02Sorry, I think I lost my invitation.
00:21:04Um, can you just make an exception?
00:21:06You lost it? Or you never had one?
00:21:09You seriously think I'm trying to sneak in?
00:21:10Isn't that exactly what you're doing?
00:21:11I've seen hundreds of people like you today.
00:21:14Ava?
00:21:15Shh.
00:21:16Where are you?
00:21:17You're stalking us?
00:21:19Take a hint, and leave us alone.
00:21:22It's like wherever we are, you're just there, stalking us.
00:21:25You guys really think that much of yourselves?
00:21:38What?
00:21:42You really think they're just gonna let some housewife down?
00:21:44Yeah, no.
00:21:46You're having fun.
00:21:47I know.
00:21:48I know, I know, I know.
00:21:49I know.
00:21:50I know.
00:21:51What? You really think they're just gonna let some housewife into V's banquet?
00:21:56Maybe you should get over yourself.
00:22:00Daniel dropped a cool one million to get me in.
00:22:04He wouldn't spend a dime on someone like you.
00:22:07Babe, it's just a million.
00:22:09Like soon, we'll be raking in the big bucks. Billions.
00:22:14Oh, I love the way you say that.
00:22:16Daniel, do share your brand of pillow.
00:22:18And your dreams are real sweet.
00:22:20Alright, we are done, Ava, alright?
00:22:23The divorce papers are signed, and I don't love you anymore.
00:22:27So, leave us alone.
00:22:29Because frankly, you're disgusting.
00:22:32I'm not gonna waste time with lunatics.
00:22:40Mrs. Ra, if you will follow me, please, to the VIP entrance.
00:22:50I'm actually divorced. I'm not Mrs. Roth.
00:23:05You see that one?
00:23:07That's the new Mrs. Roth.
00:23:09I'm sorry, Ms. Gray. Sure, I'll take care of it.
00:23:11No worries. Just go let the rocks in. Thank you.
00:23:14No worries.
00:23:15My apologies, Mrs. Roth.
00:23:17Um, I've made a mistake.
00:23:19Let me guide you to the VIP entrance, please.
00:23:21Well, since you apologize so sweetly, I'll let it slide.
00:23:26Oh, babe.
00:23:27Your investment in tuition is incredible.
00:23:30No, it's you. You're my superstar.
00:23:46She's not here.
00:23:48Yes, I must know.
00:23:52Of course, why would Ava have an invite?
00:23:57Stupid.
00:23:58Ladies and gentlemen, next up, the world-renowned, mysterious,
00:24:05director V graces the stage.
00:24:08Next up, the world-renowned, mysterious, director V graces the stage.
00:24:21V, she feels so familiar. Almost like Ava.
00:24:22Finally, we get to see V in person.
00:24:24I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:24:26It's been three years in her last project. Can't wait to see her next one.
00:24:28This V, I figure it's almost like Ava's.
00:24:29No way. Ava's low-class looks could never compare to V.
00:24:31Yeah, you're right. I married her for three years.
00:24:32But I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:24:34V, she feels so familiar. Almost like Ava.
00:24:36Almost like Ava.
00:24:38Finally, we get to see V in person.
00:24:40I can't believe that the legendary director V is a woman.
00:24:44It's been three years since her last project.
00:24:46Can't wait to see her next one.
00:24:48This V, I figure it's almost like Ava's.
00:24:53No way. Ava's low-class looks could never compare to V.
00:24:57Yeah, you're right. I married her for three years.
00:25:01I know her inside and out.
00:25:04She can never compare to V.
00:25:08Idiot. Time to show you how blind you really are.
00:25:14It's too much of a coincidence.
00:25:16I need to check this out.
00:25:22Oh my god, V. Baby, is V walking towards me?
00:25:25Is she gonna choose me?
00:25:27Of course. I've always said you're my diamond.
00:25:30You're gonna get your big break.
00:25:32My investment's gonna pay off.
00:25:33Be careful, be careful.
00:25:43You're gonna get your big break.
00:25:44My investment's gonna pay off.
00:25:45Be careful, be careful.
00:25:49Oh my god, is V okay?
00:25:51Dammit! Who made these damn stairs?
00:25:53This is gonna ruin our chances.
00:25:57Are you okay?
00:25:58William? No, no, no, no, no.
00:25:59I can't let him know who I am.
00:26:01I am...
00:26:03Oh, hey, no, wait, wait.
00:26:04No, no.
00:26:05It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:13I've seen this bracelet before.
00:26:18I'll be fine after some rest.
00:26:19Ava?
00:26:24Ava?
00:26:25Could V really be... Ava?
00:26:29Ava?
00:26:38Excuse me, Mrs. Rawl?
00:26:40That's me. Who are you?
00:26:42Director V wants you to audition as a male actor in room 301.
00:26:47Oh my god, V wants me to audition. This is gonna be my big break. I'm on my way.
00:27:05Everything's set?
00:27:07Everything is going to plan.
00:27:09What's the plan?
00:27:15James?
00:27:17Whoa, whoa, look who it is.
00:27:19Oh, babe, I have missed you since we broke up.
00:27:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:27:32What the hell are you doing here?
00:27:34Well...
00:27:39The audition for Director V starts now. The scene is called The Affair. You must play a couple having a secret meeting while each has their own family. Cameras are set up. Start whenever you're ready.
00:27:59Alright, let's do this.
00:28:02As you wish.
00:28:10Honey...
00:28:13I'm so sorry I'm late.
00:28:16I had to wait forever for my husband to fall asleep so I would come.
00:28:20Hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:28:27Hope you aren't waiting too long.
00:28:28The stream is officially live.
00:28:34Let's add another player to the game. Amp up the drama.
00:28:43Oh, this bitch won't leave me alone.
00:28:46This show's about to get good.
00:28:47What the fuck?
00:28:57Wait, that's Sophia's ex. James. What the fuck are they doing back together?
00:29:04You don't care if your husband finds out?
00:29:07Don't talk about him.
00:29:08No.
00:29:09Okay, I'm just very good.
00:29:10But, um...
00:29:11I'm the only one ever.
00:29:15You bitch!
00:29:25You bitch!
00:29:26Fuck.
00:29:27Daniel!
00:29:28No, no, it's not...
00:29:29No, Daniel! Stop!
00:29:30Shut the hell up!
00:29:31It's a misunderstanding, okay?
00:29:32This is an audition!
00:29:33You expect me to believe that you're auditioning, you're acting, while you're naked in this room, kissing your ex!
00:29:40Please, it's just for V, okay? She asked me to audition.
00:29:42James, he's an actor too. He's helping with the audition, please!
00:29:45Why are you stripping for an audition?!
00:29:48Who said that stripped?! You asshole, come on!
00:29:51It's an affair, okay?
00:29:53We're just acting for an audition. It's for the audition!
00:29:58You really think he could intimidate me?
00:30:00I'm doing this for your company! I'm doing this for V!
00:30:04Save it!
00:30:05Alright?
00:30:06If V wanted you here, where is she?
00:30:09I mean, with all your talent, you think she would notice you by now?
00:30:14What a melodramatic twist within a twist.
00:30:17Is it New V Project?
00:30:19Fuck up! You know that if it wasn't for me, you're coming for me underground!
00:30:23Oh, now the truth is coming out, isn't it?
00:30:26You thought you could sleep with your ex without me finding out.
00:30:30And you're so perfect!
00:30:32You cheating on your wife with me, you asshole!
00:30:36What the fuck?!
00:30:37What the fuck?!
00:30:45What the fuck?!
00:30:46This doesn't look like acting.
00:30:57Yeah.
00:30:59This feels way too real.
00:31:01Wait a minute, isn't that Ava's new husband?
00:31:03And his new girlfriend?
00:31:05What the fuck?!
00:31:07Yeah, you want again?!
00:31:08Uh-oh!
00:31:09No, no, no.
00:31:10No!
00:31:11No!
00:31:12Uh-oh!
00:31:15Ah-oh!
00:31:16Ah!
00:31:17Geez, this is the next level of violence, Art.
00:31:30Yeah, maybe we're seeing V's new direction?
00:31:34Wait a second.
00:31:35This is clearly revenge.
00:31:37The live stream of Ava's ex and his mistress.
00:31:39Could it be?
00:31:40Ava's actually V.
00:31:47Wait, stop, stop.
00:31:52I was paid to be here, to play along.
00:31:55I don't think V has anything to do with this.
00:31:58What?
00:31:59It's blowing up on TikTok.
00:32:01Well, that's a nice surprise.
00:32:05Who even played?
00:32:06Who's behind this?
00:32:07Who's posting this online?
00:32:09Ava?
00:32:11You, you set me up.
00:32:14Back off.
00:32:15You posted this?
00:32:16You humiliated us?
00:32:18Humiliated?
00:32:19Daniel, did you ever care?
00:32:20Because I didn't see any of that in the video.
00:32:22Hey, wasn't this your big break into the film industry?
00:32:25Now the whole world knows you.
00:32:26Guess you're famous, huh?
00:32:28You are going to pay for this.
00:32:30Run!
00:32:31Security!
00:32:32They're fighting!
00:32:33Daniel!
00:32:33Whoa.
00:32:35Whoa.
00:32:35Three years of marriage and I've never felt so protected.
00:32:48I'm trying to wait.
00:32:52Ladies and gentlemen, due to an emergency, V will be unable to meet you.
00:32:59The event is over.
00:33:02No!
00:33:03Please stay tuned for more information.
00:33:05Ticket money down the drain.
00:33:07That was going to be my big break.
00:33:09I was just hoping for a signed picture.
00:33:11I just want to see what amazing lyrics look like.
00:33:16Hey, hey, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, Ava, wait, wait.
00:33:19What is up with that video online?
00:33:21What video?
00:33:22The video of your ex and that woman.
00:33:25Why is it posted from V's account?
00:33:26Why is V trying to take them down?
00:33:28Are you...
00:33:28Okay, okay.
00:33:31Look, that's because I'm...
00:33:36Sorry.
00:33:39Yeah?
00:33:39Sir, we've uncovered Ava's real identity.
00:33:48We dug into it.
00:33:50Turns out Miss Ava is just a regular housewife.
00:33:53Got it.
00:33:56I'm sorry.
00:33:57I overreacted.
00:33:59I guess with us about to marry,
00:34:01I just realized how little I really know about you.
00:34:05And it just scared me a little bit.
00:34:07About to marry?
00:34:09Yeah, I mean, but you could say all marriage is a con word.
00:34:13You mean a lot to me, Ava.
00:34:15And I thought you could feel it too.
00:34:18I never got to thank you for rescuing me last night.
00:34:21If you hadn't stood up to Daniel,
00:34:23I might be in the hospital right now.
00:34:25I mean, in such a short time,
00:34:27you've given me care and protection
00:34:29that I never had in my marriage.
00:34:35If anyone hurts my fiancé,
00:34:37I'll make them regret it.
00:34:40Sorry to interrupt the sir.
00:34:48Sorry to interrupt the sir.
00:34:51But a master wants to see you.
00:34:53Hey, wait, who are you?
00:34:54I should persuade Ava to cooperate.
00:34:57My grandfather doesn't play around.
00:35:00Ava?
00:35:01There's a lot I need to explain,
00:35:03but I can't do it right now.
00:35:06Can you trust me?
00:35:07Just play along.
00:35:09William, how much do you owe?
00:35:21I hear William is your man now.
00:35:25What?
00:35:29Oh, yeah.
00:35:33Sir, why am I the only one allowed in?
00:35:34Why can't William come?
00:35:35Because to me, he's just a fool.
00:35:38How dare you say that about him?
00:35:40He owes you money, right?
00:35:42What if I said yes?
00:35:44How much?
00:35:44Tell me and I'll pay it off for him.
00:35:46Pay it off?
00:35:47It's no small amount.
00:35:48How much?
00:35:49Well, one million.
00:35:58One million.
00:36:00That's it.
00:36:01What, just a million?
00:36:02You don't know the full picture.
00:36:03One million is just the interest.
00:36:07The principal sum is ten million.
00:36:10Ten million?
00:36:11What did he borrow that kind of money for?
00:36:13I don't care.
00:36:14I just want to know if you can pay it off.
00:36:18I can.
00:36:21You're a liar.
00:36:22Not only are you broke, but you're a liar.
00:36:29You're a divorced woman.
00:36:31You've been divorced for three years.
00:36:33You've been waiting tables.
00:36:35What savings could you possibly have accumulated?
00:36:38How did you know I was divorced?
00:36:41Did you investigate me?
00:36:42No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:36:53Did you investigate me?
00:37:02Yes, I did.
00:37:04In our line of work, information is everything.
00:37:07No matter who the debtor is, where they are, or who they're with, I know everything.
00:37:12Just try digging a little deeper.
00:37:15My cheating ex is a CEO of a listed company, and the divorce settlement, it's hefty.
00:37:24What?
00:37:25You've paid 11 million dollars for William?
00:37:29Why did you pay such a huge amount for that scumbag?
00:37:31Maybe to you, he's just a broke jerk.
00:37:34When I needed him, he was there.
00:37:35Money's one thing, but William, he's worth more than all of it.
00:37:42Money's one thing, but William, he's worth more than all of it.
00:37:45Jeez, it's as if destiny is pulling strings.
00:37:51How did William meet someone this perfect?
00:37:54Her ex must be a total jerk.
00:38:00Pull every single penny out of Daniel Roth's investments.
00:38:05Now.
00:38:12Ava, are you okay?
00:38:19I'm fine.
00:38:21You, you need to learn how to be a good man.
00:38:26What?
00:38:27Why did Katzenberg pull out?
00:38:37We've been working with them for years.
00:38:39I don't know.
00:38:40Could it be because of the live stream video?
00:38:42I mean, it has to be.
00:38:43This is all on Ava.
00:38:46I'm going to kill her.
00:38:49I swear.
00:38:50I hope you do.
00:38:50I mean, with Katzenberg gone, we're missing an 80% funding gap.
00:38:56We may as well file for bankruptcy.
00:38:59Oh, Daniel, please, calm down.
00:39:02I've just gotten word that Fee's hosting auditions for her new film tomorrow.
00:39:06So, if I can get her approval.
00:39:10Well, then you, as the face of our company, you'll skyrocket the stock price.
00:39:16Katzenberg will be begging for shares.
00:39:19Oh, you genius!
00:39:27Sam?
00:39:28Miss, the captain call is set for tomorrow.
00:39:31I just heard Katzenberg pulled all investments from Daniel's company.
00:39:35They'll be bankrupt by the month's end.
00:39:37Even so, I've got one last strike for this idiot.
00:39:41What do you mean?
00:39:43Have Cameron contact Sophia.
00:39:45Let her know she can buy a role in my new film.
00:39:47For a high price.
00:40:02Hey, William, what's up?
00:40:03I, uh, I have an audition for V's movie tomorrow.
00:40:07Oh.
00:40:09Well, that's great.
00:40:10Yeah, um, look, I'm just too nervous.
00:40:13I can't get into any of the emotional scenes.
00:40:16Do you like baking?
00:40:26What?
00:40:30Oh, no.
00:40:31Oh.
00:40:31Oh!
00:40:31Sorry I'm late.
00:40:51I'm Cameron, the producer of V's movie.
00:40:54So, once I pay, Sophia's got the role, right?
00:40:59Of course.
00:41:10This is perfect.
00:41:12What's going on?
00:41:13Uh, nothing.
00:41:15You want more cake?
00:41:16Yeah.
00:41:16Okay, I think we might have had, like, a little bit too much.
00:41:28No, you're not even tipsy.
00:41:31And I'm, I'm fine.
00:41:33All right, then maybe we should drink some more then.
00:41:35Yeah, sure thing.
00:41:36Oh, oh.
00:41:36Can I kiss you?
00:42:02You should probably take that.
00:42:05Oh.
00:42:05Why the hell?
00:42:09How many times have I just started to feel it?
00:42:12Hmm.
00:42:13Well, look at you back in character.
00:42:16I think my job here is done.
00:42:19Time to get some sleep and hit the showers.
00:42:20Time to get some sleep and hit the showers.
00:42:34Wow.
00:42:36Ava, you're stunning.
00:42:38No one would believe that Director V and the richest heiress in town are actually the same person.
00:42:44Well, you know I never cared for the public perception, but, God, I can't wait to see Daniel and Sophia's faces when they find out the truth.
00:42:51Hello?
00:43:00Ava, can you do me a favor?
00:43:03What's wrong?
00:43:04Has something happened?
00:43:05No, I'm just a little worried about the emotional scenes today.
00:43:10Could you be my partner and help me run through it?
00:43:13Could you be my partner?
00:43:25Uh, um, all right, um, yeah, no, I mean, of course, I'll go with you.
00:43:31Ava, thank you.
00:43:32I'll send you the location for casting.
00:43:34Yeah, okay, bye.
00:43:40Ava, where are you going?
00:43:42If you leave, who will run the casting?
00:43:45Who will choose the actors?
00:43:47Okay.
00:43:50You'll handle it.
00:44:01Fuck!
00:44:01Ava!
00:44:02What are they doing here?
00:44:04First she ruins my company, now she wants to ruin the audition.
00:44:08All right, let's get this casting underway.
00:44:22I can't love you anymore.
00:44:24Please, please, let me go.
00:44:27Let us bury our love in the past.
00:44:29And never look back.
00:44:35Cut.
00:44:37Next.
00:44:39What's going on?
00:44:40I didn't finish my lines.
00:44:42That's enough.
00:44:43He gave me zero emotion.
00:44:44I put my heart into that scene.
00:44:46He gave me nothing.
00:44:47If you have a complaint, feel free to file a complaint form.
00:44:51But for now, please leave the audition area.
00:44:57Her acting.
00:45:00Makes me want to puke.
00:45:03Next.
00:45:05That's our turn.
00:45:07Hey.
00:45:08You got this.
00:45:12Whoa!
00:45:13Sorry.
00:45:13This woman is not an actress.
00:45:17She has no right to audition.
00:45:27What's going on here?
00:45:29It's simple.
00:45:30I brought my fiancé to audition.
00:45:33It'll help me give a better performance.
00:45:36This is V's casting.
00:45:37Come on.
00:45:38Only pros allowed.
00:45:39You're just going to let some untrained housewife sneak her way in?
00:45:42Once this leaks, V's reputation will be ruined.
00:45:46And you'll be fired.
00:45:47Sophia, you are not V.
00:45:49How could you know what she cares about?
00:45:50What does it matter if she's a pro?
00:45:55Training doesn't guarantee impact.
00:45:59You can still touch hearts as long as you're feeling and in the role.
00:46:05That's what a true actor does.
00:46:15All right.
00:46:17You're up.
00:46:20You know, you say you love me, but I mean, you don't even know who I am.
00:46:27Can you really love someone you barely know?
00:46:30Who says that I can't?
00:46:32I can see your strength, your kindness, and the vulnerability beneath it.
00:46:38I mean, I feel your pain and see your scars.
00:46:42I know we've only known each other a short time, but I feel like I see you better than I see myself.
00:46:48And I love you.
00:46:51Before you go, can you kiss me once more?
00:46:54Bitch really knows how to fake it.
00:47:10Now for the official casting results.
00:47:16It's a good thing we've got a backup plan.
00:47:18It's a good thing we've got a backup plan.
00:47:29Who cares about acting anyway?
00:47:31Yeah.
00:47:32I mean, acting is nothing, really.
00:47:35Money is how you get the role.
00:47:36Eto'o?
00:47:41Effie?
00:47:42Kevin?
00:47:45William?
00:47:46Oh my god, what?
00:47:47That's incredible!
00:47:48William, you're amazing.
00:47:50Why am I not on this list?
00:47:51They're still going.
00:47:53Okay.
00:47:54It's okay.
00:47:54Uh, last, Ava.
00:47:56What?
00:47:57No way!
00:47:59Ava, you got in as well.
00:48:00This isn't fair!
00:48:07The Lisbon chair for where?
00:48:08There is cheating going on in this casting.
00:48:11Where's your proof?
00:48:12Without anything to back it up, that's slandering.
00:48:15Proof?
00:48:16Well, um, I paid 50 million to the producer to get her a role.
00:48:21Yeah, and they've already taken the money, so if I don't get the lead role, we'll sue him!
00:48:24So if I don't get the lead role, we'll sue him!
00:48:32Oh, is that so?
00:48:33You know, it's funny you say that, because I haven't heard anything about it.
00:48:39Wait, what are you talking about?
00:48:41Ava, I need to tell you something.
00:48:44Um, I am actually an investor in the film.
00:48:50Liam, please don't get carried away.
00:48:52No, it's true, okay?
00:48:53I'll prove it to you.
00:48:54Prove it?
00:48:55You're just some nobody pretending to be some film investor?
00:48:59You know how many millions it's going to take to make this movie.
00:49:06Wait a minute.
00:49:09Is that a Katzenberg black card?
00:49:22Oh, you have lost it now, haven't you?
00:49:32A washed-up actor trying to use a prop as the real card.
00:49:37The Katzenbergs are the top three family in America.
00:49:41Got connections everywhere, and this nobody is pretending to be one.
00:49:44Mr. Katzenberg has arrived.
00:49:52Katzenberg?
00:49:53Oh my god, he's William's creditor.
00:49:54Shit.
00:49:56Hey.
00:50:05Grandpa?
00:50:06Why is he here?
00:50:07Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:08Oh no, this is bad.
00:50:20Mr. Johnson, it is a pleasure to see you.
00:50:24Daniel, what are you doing here?
00:50:26You got that funding issue sorted yet?
00:50:29We're working on it.
00:50:31May I ask it?
00:50:32Why did the Katzenbergs drop out of our project?
00:50:35We don't want the people abusing the Katzenberg name.
00:50:38What?
00:50:39Wait, wait, wait.
00:50:40Well, as a matter of fact, you came at the perfect time.
00:50:42Because somebody here is using the Katzenberg name.
00:50:46Oh, now you have my attention.
00:50:48And I'm very curious.
00:50:50Who's got the guts to pull that off?
00:50:53Him.
00:51:00Sir?
00:51:01Sir?
00:51:02Hey, what the hell?
00:51:10You're chasing me down now?
00:51:11I already paid you back.
00:51:21I already paid you back.
00:51:22Ava, what do you mean you've paid back my grandfather?
00:51:24I already paid...
00:51:25Wait, are you calling him your grandfather?
00:51:29This is my grandson.
00:51:31William Katzenberg.
00:51:34Official heir to the Katzenberg family fortune.
00:51:38What does this mean?
00:51:39No, no, no, no.
00:51:40This can't be...
00:51:41Daniel, I don't need your opinion on how to choose an heir.
00:51:45Oh, so this is how it is.
00:51:51Well, the Katzenbergs are using their movies to launder their dirty money.
00:51:56Hey, hey, you watch your mouth.
00:51:58Slandering us like that will land you in prison.
00:52:01Daniel, before you jump to conclusions, there's someone I'd like you to meet.
00:52:05Cameron?
00:52:11Cameron?
00:52:11Wait, Ava, you... you know him?
00:52:14You two have been working together this whole time?
00:52:17Cameron, how dare you impersonate V's producer?
00:52:31Sorry, I'm not impersonating anybody.
00:52:34I am V's producer.
00:52:35Then why are you working with this bitch?
00:52:39What's in it for you?
00:52:41I told you that I'm V's producer.
00:52:43And you know what?
00:52:44I take my odors from her.
00:52:48What are you talking about?
00:52:50Honestly, like, who even is V?
00:52:53I mean, I don't know her.
00:52:55I've got no beef with her.
00:52:56So, why would she send you to ruin me?
00:53:00Right, so you would like me to, uh, unlift it all and, uh, reveal who V is today.
00:53:08Well, Ava, is that okay?
00:53:10Yeah.
00:53:12In the flesh.
00:53:13That's correct.
00:53:14This is the mysterious, the fabulous, the fearless, V.
00:53:20And she's also the heiress of the Green family to fortune.
00:53:26Oh, it's V.
00:53:27Well, I'm finally seeing V in person.
00:53:29Famous director and heiress.
00:53:31V's got the perfect life.
00:53:39No.
00:53:40No, no, she can't be.
00:53:41That's impossible.
00:53:43You idiot.
00:53:44You stupid idiot.
00:53:47I trusted you and I could have been with A.
00:53:50I swear, I swear, I am going to kill you.
00:53:53You wanna try, you wanna fight?
00:53:55Are you crazy?
00:53:56I'm gonna kill you.
00:53:58FBI, everyone free.
00:54:07What are you doing here?
00:54:09Daniel, we have poof of your embezzlement.
00:54:10From here on out, you have the right to remain silent.
00:54:12Anything you say will be used against you in court.
00:54:14What are you talking about?
00:54:18I...
00:54:19Who told you?
00:54:22Who do you think?
00:54:24You.
00:54:26Get them out of here.
00:54:27Go of me!
00:54:29Let go!
00:54:30Fuck you!
00:54:31Okay?
00:54:31Get off me!
00:54:41Get off!
00:54:43Ava, so you're not only V, but the Green family fortune heiress.
00:54:48I mean, I knew something was off.
00:54:51Yes, okay, I haven't been completely honest with you, but...
00:54:55And you haven't been very truthful to me either, right?
00:54:59I've wanted to be honest, but you know how lies can top on top of each other?
00:55:05Look, it's all over now.
00:55:06I'm sorry, but I can't move past this.
00:55:08If we can't even be honest with each other, then maybe...
00:55:10Maybe it's time we cool off.
00:55:15Ava, I can see how much you care for each other.
00:55:18Thank you, Frank.
00:55:22This is between me and him.
00:55:24Ava.
00:55:26Are you really leaving me?
00:55:29William, this is always a contract.
00:55:33Now it's expired.
00:55:40It's okay, son.
00:55:42You can do this.
00:55:48Your call has been forwarded to voicemail.
00:56:04Don't do this.
00:56:28Ava, please don't go.
00:56:58Ava, you're leaving us already. Can't you stay a few more days just to be with us?
00:57:11Mom, I've just, I've been through too much lately and I'm exhausted. I need to clear my head. I'm exhausted.
00:57:19Don't let anyone hold you back. You deserve a bigger world.
00:57:25Maybe you'll find somebody better for you.
00:57:28No, no. I have been fooled too many times and I think, I just, I don't trust any guy anymore.
00:57:35If you end up with a woman, that's okay too. As long as you're happy.
00:57:39Mom, trust and orientation are completely different things.
00:57:43A guy with 8-pack abs still doesn't come.
00:57:47Anyway, my driver's waiting. I'll see you in a bit.
00:57:55Good luck, baby.
00:57:57Love you.
00:58:04Oh, she's leaving us.
00:58:13Let's go.
00:58:14Ava Green. Long time no see.
00:58:19Oh.
00:58:30What's up?
00:58:33Can you kiss me once more?
00:58:53William.
00:58:59William, I'll admit it.
00:59:00I'm not like I was with my ex.
00:59:02Walking away from you is way harder.
00:59:05But without me, can you still feel that spark?
00:59:10Hey, Henry, why haven't we set off yet?
00:59:13We're going to be late.
00:59:15Hey, girl.
00:59:20Sophia, what the hell are you doing here?
00:59:22Let's save the check till later.
00:59:24And where we go?
00:59:33I'm sorry to hear you.
00:59:37I'm sorry to hear you.
00:59:38I'm sorry to hear you.
00:59:40You're crazy bitch.
01:00:02Do you even realize what you're doing is a crime?
01:00:05Fuck!
01:00:07Everything is your fault, Eva.
01:00:11You have a reason Daniel's in prison.
01:00:13You fucked up my entire life!
01:00:16Sophia, listen to me.
01:00:18Daniel brought all of this on himself.
01:00:20You've just been too blinded by him.
01:00:22You just need to calm down.
01:00:24Shut up.
01:00:25Shut the fuck up!
01:00:27I'm gonna take you to hell.
01:00:37Damn world, huh?
01:00:45Say goodbye.
01:00:47No!
01:00:51No!
01:01:01Damn world.
01:01:03Say goodbye.
01:01:07Give it up, Eva.
01:01:09You've earned everything to the ground.
01:01:12Ha ha ha!
01:01:13Ah!
01:01:14No!
01:01:17No!
01:01:18No!
01:01:19No!
01:01:21No!
01:01:22No, no, no!
01:01:23.
01:01:39The show must go on.
01:02:09The show must go on.
01:02:17Ava?
01:02:22William!
01:02:23Hey, hang on, okay?
01:02:24I'm gonna call an ambulance.
01:02:26Please don't stay with me, okay?
01:02:28You're gonna be okay.
01:02:30Vee, Vee, come here, Vee, please, just share Vee, Vee.
01:02:41Vee, what was the inspiration for your ladies?
01:02:44Is it true that the movie was based on real events?
01:02:47Miss Vee, over here.
01:02:50Vee, you are looking stunning tonight, as always.
01:02:54The question everybody's been wondering, is Vee alone at this big premiere?
01:03:01Well, I was supposed to be accompanied by a very special person tonight.
01:03:05And where is that special someone?
01:03:08He...
01:03:15And where is that special someone?
01:03:17He...
01:03:19Congratulations, Ava, or should I say Vee.
01:03:36It's quite the turnout tonight.
01:03:38It'll be no surprise that your new film is another hit.
01:03:41So I thought I'd surprise you in a different way.
01:03:48Ava.
01:03:49Since we've met, we've been through so much together.
01:03:52You've been flirting with death.
01:03:55On the day of your movie premiere.
01:03:57And on your very special day, I have to ask.
01:04:04Will you marry me?
01:04:06William.
