Short filmTranscript
00:00In this town, it's Oxygen, Niles Gilmore, Hollywood's biggest action star and my top
00:14client.
00:15But once he's sober and on time, I publish his stream.
00:21For a star, priming is everything.
00:27Sophie Miller, fresh face, on the verge of something big if she makes all the right moves.
00:33Stand tall, this is your life.
00:41Knowing your handiwork?
00:42Late as usual.
00:43Not late, just perfectly timed.
00:47Ethan Prescott, Niles' agent, the guy I've known longer than anyone, dependable, intelligent,
00:53and annoyingly charming.
00:57Nice dress.
00:58Nice bow tie.
00:59Just needs a little adjustment here.
01:03How's our golden boy?
01:05Is he behaving himself, or are we in prison for all it takes?
01:08He's playing nice.
01:10Give it an hour.
01:14What the hell, man?
01:16You can't just hit someone!
01:18Or less.
01:22Well, that escalated quickly.
01:24Stay close.
01:26I may handle this before I ask Niles.
01:28Damage control.
01:29Got it.
01:31What the hell, man?
01:32You can't just hit someone!
01:38Niles?
01:39What happened?
01:41This loser shoved this camera in my face.
01:43It's on my bad side.
01:44I didn't even touch him.
01:45He's being dramatic.
01:46You hit someone in front of a hundred cameras?
01:48They need to fix this.
01:50Don't say that.
01:52Let's not make this a bigger deal than it needs to be.
01:54We can solve this quietly.
01:56How about $1,000 a day?
01:58Zero.
01:59$5,000.
02:00I'll pay along with it.
02:02Fine.
02:03Deal.
02:05You better be good for it, or else I'm going straight to the press.
02:08It'll be him.
02:10Oh, man!
02:11I dropped my camera again!
02:13I'm so clumsy!
02:15Thank you for helping me pick it up, Niles Gilmore!
02:18So sweet.
02:19Great work, everyone.
02:26That was impressive.
02:27In Hollywood, connections are a currency.
02:29Without me pulling the strings, even the brightest stars burn out.
02:32But I keep them shining.
02:48Ethan?
02:50What are you doing here?
03:18Good morning, Ms. Harrington.
03:19Your schedule's been moved around slightly.
03:21There's a last-minute edition of a potential new client meeting.
03:24Liam Sterling.
03:26Liam Sterling?
03:27That hot guy from the new rom-com?
03:29He's looking to revamp his image.
03:31Interesting.
03:33When does he arrive?
03:48You're good.
04:00Mr. Sterling, welcome to Harrington PR.
04:04I am your new employee.
04:05I know.
04:06I know you are.
04:07Call me Liam.
04:13I've heard a lot about you.
04:14They say you're the best on the boost.
04:16I'd like to think that I'm good at what I do, but flattery won't get you any discounts.
04:22No discounts necessary.
04:24I'm here because I need a real change.
04:26Go on.
04:28I'm sick of being the guy who's shirtless more than he's acting.
04:30I mean, the heartthrob thing, it's been fun.
04:33But it's not who I am.
04:35I want substance.
04:37Roles that really challenge me.
04:39If you're serious about this, it's not going to be easy.
04:42And it won't happen overnight.
04:44Are you ready for that?
04:47Sounds easy with you by my side.
04:50Alright.
04:52We'll have to change your public persona.
04:54No more sexy magazine covers.
04:57And no more feeding into that heartthrob image.
05:00We'll focus on redefining you as a serious actor.
05:03And you'll have to be selective about the projects you take.
05:05Taking roles with depth.
05:08Range.
05:10That's exactly what I want.
05:12I've been waiting for somebody to tell me
05:14that it's okay to say no to the next rom-com
05:16where I spend more time in the gym than with a script.
05:20Well, consider this your conscience.
05:23But this is a partnership.
05:26You'll have to trust me.
05:28100%.
05:30I trust you.
05:33You're the person I've been looking for.
05:38We'll make it happen.
05:40I'm all in.
05:45Brooke?
05:49Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
05:52Uh, you weren't interrupting anything.
05:54Is this your boyfriend?
05:55I, uh...
05:56God, no.
05:57Um, this is my close friend, Ethan.
05:59Oh.
06:00Well, nice to meet you.
06:01I'm Liam Sterling.
06:02I know who you are.
06:04I work closely with your agent.
06:06Brought you a coffee.
06:07I'll just sleep with Margaret.
06:08Thanks.
06:11He's a nice guy.
06:13You sure he's not your boyfriend?
06:15I'm single, Mr. Sterling.
06:17Ah, Liam.
06:18Remember?
06:19Liam.
06:20I have a feeling this is going to work out really well.
06:23I'm, uh...
06:25I'm sure it will.
06:26No.
06:27I think this is the start of a beautiful relationship.
06:41Knock, knock, knock.
06:49Hello?
06:52Who's there?
06:54I'm armed.
07:00Don't shoot.
07:01Liam?
07:02Thought I'd surprise you.
07:05With wine and flowers?
07:09I didn't want to butter you up because I didn't make an appointment.
07:12I mean, I guess this works.
07:21So?
07:23What's the occasion?
07:26Some say I'm cutthroat.
07:28Do they?
07:30No, you don't look so cutthroat to me.
07:33Appearances may be deceiving.
07:35And yet...
07:37Here I am with you.
07:39Well, someone's got to keep you out of trouble.
07:43Maybe.
07:45Or maybe you're just avoiding what's really going on here.
07:48And what would that be?
07:50When the real chemistry's right here.
07:53Do we not?
07:55I don't know what you're talking about.
07:58I sure don't.
08:02This wine is great.
08:04Great taste.
08:07So are we going to do something about this?
08:08Or are you just going to sit here enjoying the wine?
08:13Okay.
08:16I'll let you get some rest.
08:18No.
08:20Stay a little longer.
08:23I'll stay as long as you want.
08:38This is so unprofessional.
08:40I'm not going to fire you.
08:42Are you going to fire me?
08:44No.
08:54Shit.
08:58Shit.
09:02Shit.
09:04Shit.
09:07No good morning kiss?
09:09I don't think so.
09:11Come on.
09:15Last night was a mistake.
09:17Fun, but still a mistake.
09:21Yeah, I don't think I agree.
09:23You're my client.
09:25I'm supposed to be helping your career, not helping you.
09:28You know?
09:31You were great last night.
09:34Now, can you please just get dressed?
09:37If anyone caught us, this could ruin my career.
09:40Not to mention what it could do to your rebrand.
09:42Do you still want to be known as the slutty heartthrob?
09:46Well, I wouldn't say slutty.
09:51Everyone else would.
09:53I mean, what serious actor slept with their publicist?
09:57The sooner we move past this, the sooner that I can get you and Lena and your career moving forward.
10:04Sound good?
10:09No.
10:11But if that's what you want, then I guess I don't have a choice.
10:16Is that what you want, Brooke?
10:19Yes.
10:21That's what's best.
10:23Whatever you say.
10:24I'm sorry.
10:26At least we got it out of our systems.
10:28Close it.
10:34Ugh.
10:44Last night was amazing.
10:46The movie sucked. Aside from my scene, I met this guy at the after party.
10:49He's a bit older. A screenwriter.
10:52Ugh, come on.
10:54An old screenwriter?
10:56You are Sophie Miller.
10:58You can do so much better.
11:00I know that look, Brooke. You're up to something.
11:02What makes you think that?
11:04You love playing matchmaker. Admit it.
11:06You're trying to set me up.
11:08Half of Hollywood's power couples owe their happiness to me.
11:12You can be one of them.
11:14Well, what about you? When are you going to find your someone?
11:18Oh, I'm happy being single.
11:20Plus, I got enough on my plate managing everyone else's love lives.
11:25You've never thought about it?
11:29Of course I have.
11:33But then I remember all the drama that comes with it, and...
11:37I like the way my life is.
11:39Drama queen.
11:41I think you're the only person in this town who doesn't crave drama.
11:46Alright, drama queen.
11:48We have a party to get ready for.
11:56This is quite the party.
11:58It's one of the best parties I've ever been to.
12:00So, you're leveling up.
12:09So, whose party is this anyway?
12:11Dylan's.
12:13Dylan Parker's? You were serious about setting me up.
12:16When do I say anything just for fun?
12:18I thought this would be a good opportunity for you two to meet.
12:21You're playing matchmaker again, aren't you?
12:23Trust me. You'll thank me later.
12:26Hi, Dylan.
12:28Meet Sophie.
12:30Yeah, no, I know Sophie.
12:32We met at that Kim read for the horror flick, right?
12:34You remember that?
12:36How could I forget?
12:38And damn, Brooke.
12:40You gotta warn me when you dress like this.
12:42Um, Sophie's the real star here.
12:44You guys should get to know each other.
12:46Hi, Sophie.
12:48Let's, uh, grab a drink?
12:50Find a quiet place to chat?
12:52That'd be great.
12:56Ah!
13:00What the?
13:02What the?
13:04Oh my god, your dress!
13:06You bitch!
13:08This dress is sponsored.
13:10Watch where you're walking.
13:12Who the hell are you?
13:14Just a crazy fan sneaking into a Hollywood star house?
13:16You better pay for this.
13:18Otherwise, I could ruin your career with a single thing.
13:21I'm sorry.
13:23Cover the face.
13:27Oops!
13:29Accident.
13:31I'm sorry.
13:33Your ugly thrift store dress looks even worse.
13:37I guess some people still haven't learned that
13:39in Hollywood, there are cameras everywhere.
13:41Wait, is that Liam Sterling?
13:43I just watched his movie yesterday.
13:45Damn, he looks even hotter in person.
13:47And if anyone's career is getting ruined,
13:49it won't be Brooke Harrington's.
13:51She's an A-list publicist.
13:53Ruining reputations is her job.
13:55So if I were you,
13:57I would watch my mouth around her.
14:01Take this.
14:05Um, I didn't expect to see you here.
14:07I wasn't expecting to see you here either.
14:09You, uh, looking for somebody
14:11to put on your matchmaking list?
14:13Hmm. Depends.
14:15What do you have in mind?
14:17A girl who's smart,
14:19strong, independent.
14:21Maybe she runs her own business.
14:23Makes her way around Hollywood.
14:25Sounds like she's hard to find.
14:29Almost impossible.
14:35Actually, there is
14:37someone that you should meet.
14:39Who's that?
14:41Lena Turner. She's one of my clients.
14:43She's one of the best directors in the business.
14:45I'll introduce you two.
14:47Could be good for you.
14:49Is that so?
14:51Lena!
14:53Meet Liam Sterling.
14:55Liam Sterling. It's so great to meet you.
14:57I've admired you and your work for years.
14:59The feeling is mutual. Congratulations on the horror film.
15:01Um, you two should work together.
15:03We are working on a new
15:05direction for Liam.
15:07Something more serious.
15:09That would be amazing.
15:11I'll leave you two to chat.
15:13Thanks for the introduction.
15:15Okay.
15:21Well, that was fast.
15:23There's a lot of interaction.
15:29Of course.
15:35Wow.
15:37You look beautiful.
15:39Ethan, shouldn't you be holed up in an office
15:41somewhere working late as usual?
15:43Um, agents get invited to these things, too.
15:45It's not always just the pretty people.
15:47Speaking of pretty people...
15:51You look jealous.
15:53Why would I be jealous?
15:55Speaking of jealous...
15:57What made you run out so quickly this morning?
15:59Oh, I didn't want to
16:01get in the way of you and um...
16:03What was it? Liam.
16:05He's just a client, Ethan.
16:09You alright?
16:11I asked if you were alright.
16:13Yeah, just a little overcrowded.
16:15Well, let's get out of here.
16:17I promised Sophie I'd
16:19stay with her.
16:21Hmm. Looks like she'll be
16:23okay on her own.
16:25Alright.
16:27Whisk me away, then.
16:29That's the spirit.
16:35Who would have thought that ten years later we'd be so successful?
16:37I knew we would, man.
16:39I didn't.
16:41When we came out here right after high school, we had zero plan.
16:43You still wanted to be an actress back then.
16:45Hey, don't make fun of me.
16:47You knew how good I was in Romeo and Juliet.
16:49Oh, who could forget?
16:51But...
16:53People change.
16:55We grow up.
16:57I don't think you're that different.
16:59Liar.
17:01Hey, take that back.
17:03Okay? I'm super different.
17:05No.
17:07I feel the same way
17:09with you as I did when we were kids.
17:11And how do I make you
17:13feel, Ethan?
17:15Uh, um...
17:17Well, you're, uh...
17:19You're infuriating.
17:21And...
17:23You're like sunshine
17:25when it wants you.
17:27I will fuck you up, bro!
17:29I will fuck you up, bro!
17:31Is that our
17:33actual movie guy?
17:35You're beating up people for no reason.
17:37Niles!
17:39Niles, stop!
17:41I won't stop filming!
17:43Move, Lee.
17:45You're gonna get in the way.
17:47Oh my god, are you okay?
17:49You fucking got me, huh?
17:51Doctor, come.
17:55Well, he's not gonna get very far.
17:57For action stories, a beer is always somewhere.
17:59Let me see it.
18:01It's broken. I know it.
18:03Well, we won't know unless you let me look.
18:09What do you think?
18:13I don't think it's broken.
18:15I think you're gonna be just fine.
18:19You're always taking care of me.
18:21Well,
18:23someone has to.
18:25You always get yourself into trouble.
18:27Why are you always the one who has my back?
18:29I guess
18:31you mean a lot to me.
18:33That's why.
18:35You sure it's not just because you like control?
18:37I might be a control freak,
18:39but that's not why I stick around.
18:43Why do you?
18:45Ethan.
18:57We can't.
19:01Why not?
19:05Friends don't do this with friends.
19:09I didn't realize friendship had so many rules.
19:11Hey, you're
19:13you're a loopy,
19:15and I'm tipsy.
19:17How many of those pills did you even take?
19:19I don't know, maybe two?
19:21Why should I take more?
19:23The dosage is one.
19:25You're high off your ass right now.
19:29Okay.
19:31All right.
19:33Now time to get sleep before
19:35anything gets too crazy.
19:37What's so wrong with things getting out of hand?
19:39We only have a little.
19:41All right.
19:43Good night, Ethan.
19:45Work's not fun.
19:47Good night, Ethan.
19:49Work's not fun.
20:01Oh my god, Niles!
20:03I didn't even know this
20:05got leaked.
20:07Seems to be an ongoing trend with Niles.
20:11Thanks for bailing me out, guys.
20:13Real warm reception.
20:15Deal.
20:17Whatever. Can we just go grab something to eat?
20:19Niles, I'm going to have to
20:21let you go.
20:23I'm sorry.
20:25You're a liability.
20:27You're joking, right?
20:29You hit me in the face.
20:31I would've hit anyone in the face.
20:33It wasn't because it was you. I was in the moment.
20:35That's almost worse.
20:37Way worse.
20:39This is bullshit. I hired you as my
20:41publicist to deal with this.
20:43Make it go away.
20:45I'm a publicist to the stars.
20:47I get clients brand deals and
20:49magazine covers. I make them movie stars.
20:51I can't make criminals look good.
20:53This is so unfair. Ethan,
20:55tell her she's being insane.
20:57I'm dropping you too, Niles.
20:59The studio pulled out of your three-picture deal.
21:01No one wants to work with a serial assaulter.
21:03Now fuck this. Fuck you
21:05and fuck you too.
21:07You're going to pay for this, I swear.
21:13Well, you took that one.
21:15Yeah, he's going to pay
21:17for my nose job if this doesn't heal right.
21:21Your nose is fine.
21:23Perfect, even.
21:25Mind dropping me at the office?
21:27You have a card.
21:29I'm all hopped up on pain medication.
21:31Trust me, you don't want to drive.
21:33Okay.
21:37Are you sure
21:39you're good to go in?
21:41I'm more than good. I'm
21:43incredible.
21:45Hey, seriously, how long
21:47are you going to spend this on the team?
21:49Tell them you found an action star.
21:51They'll understand.
21:53That's actually really badass of you to do that.
22:05It's not my problem anymore.
22:11Hello?
22:13This is Brooke.
22:15You might hold all the power in Hollywood
22:17right now, but I'm coming for you,
22:19Brooke Harrington.
22:23Who is this?
22:25Someone who could make your life
22:27a lot more difficult if you don't start to play nice.
22:37Oh, Sophie.
22:39Hi, it's you. What's up?
22:41I had the best night with Dylan.
22:43He is so charming. We really clicked.
22:45You were so right.
22:47That's good. I told you so.
22:49Yeah, but there's one
22:51tiny red flock. He
22:53kept bringing you up.
22:55Me? Why?
22:57Don't know. It just felt like maybe there was something between you.
22:59Dylan and I? No.
23:01He's nothing more than a client.
23:03Okay, I just didn't want to
23:05step on any toes. I really like him.
23:07You're good. He's all yours.
23:09Great. Are we still
23:11going to the launch party tonight?
23:13Um, I think I'm
23:15just going to sit this one out. It's been a lot lately.
23:17Saw Niall's mugshot.
23:19Not his most flattering
23:21look. Definitely not.
23:23Can I
23:25bring Dylan as my plus one?
23:27Uh, yeah. That's a good idea.
23:29Um, you
23:31guys should walk the carpet together.
23:33So soon? Everyone does it.
23:35Hi. You are the
23:37best, Brooke.
23:43Brooke, you
23:45came. This is
23:47crazy. I can't believe you booked this movie.
23:49Well, they had another actress, but
23:51she had a total meltdown, so Dylan just
23:53threw my name into the ring, and they booked me.
23:55Thank you. Why are you thanking me?
23:57Well, if I would've never met Dylan, then
23:59I would've never booked this movie. You're basically
24:01better than my agent. I'll have to agree with you
24:03on that one.
24:07Speaking of agents...
24:09Um, Ethan Rep
24:11and Dylan Parker. You two seem to be
24:13spending a lot of time together recently.
24:15Is that work? The usual.
24:17Dealing with Niall's stuff. You know how it is.
24:19Mm-hmm. Just work.
24:21He's cute, Brooke.
24:23I'm serious.
24:25It's nothing more than that. He's like my oldest
24:27friend. Whatever you say.
24:29But you have to introduce me to him soon.
24:31I need a new agent, and I've heard great things about him.
24:33He is the greatest.
24:35Anyway, I have to get to my wardrobe trailer.
24:37Wish me luck.
24:39You are going to do great.
24:43You finally showed up.
24:45Well, I don't want to miss it all.
24:47How's it going?
24:49It depends. You come here to check on
24:51Sophie or me?
24:53It better be me.
24:57Well, of course.
24:59How's Seth?
25:01You know, the usual. Long hours, a lot of takes.
25:03But Sophie, she is just...
25:05She's killing it.
25:07I mean, if her looks aren't going to make her a star, her acting definitely would.
25:09I always knew she had it in her.
25:11I've been chatting with some of the producers
25:13and they're buzzing about the early dailies.
25:15Sophie's performance is top notch.
25:17You should take her on as a client, Ethan.
25:19Her agent sucks.
25:21Well, it seems like you just want to share
25:23all your clients with me, don't you?
25:25You know,
25:27between you and me,
25:29you're the real secret weapon here, bro.
25:31I didn't know I was directing this film.
25:33You might as well be.
25:35You know you could be in charge of this.
25:37Alright, well, if you're going to take all the credit,
25:39I'm going to go make some calls.
25:41But don't let this guy sweet talk you too much, alright?
25:45Yeah, I did, um...
25:47want to chat with you, run some things by you.
25:49Some PR stuff.
25:51Alone.
25:55Um, I'm kind of busy right now,
25:57but what did you have in mind?
25:59Yeah, um, I mean, the PR strategy is good.
26:01I just feel like I could use a little more...
26:03personal attention.
26:05You have weekly check-ins on us.
26:07We need one more deal.
26:09We need some one-on-one time.
26:11Together.
26:13I mean, you are impressive and like...
26:15beyond hot, rookie.
26:17Um...
26:19Dylan, let's focus on your career.
26:21That's what we're here for, right?
26:23I think we could make magic together.
26:25Don't you?
26:31I need this.
26:33Call me.
26:37Who is this?
26:39Have you realized your wrongs?
26:43Wrongs?
26:45What are you talking about?
26:47The sooner you bring Niles Gilmore back to glory,
26:49the safer you'll be.
26:51Niles, is this you?
26:53Look, I'm not bringing you back on as a client.
26:55This isn't Niles.
26:57Niles, that's exactly what you would say
26:59if it was you.
27:01This isn't fucking Niles.
27:03Then who are you?
27:05Someone who would do anything for Niles Gilmore.
27:07And I won't stop until you pay for his downfall.
27:13Hey, Dylan.
27:15Have you been getting weird phone calls?
27:17No, just the regular actors
27:19being desperate and trying to become movie stars.
27:21What's wrong?
27:25Psycho fan is trying to get back at me
27:27for firing Niles.
27:29Back at you? How?
27:31I don't know yet.
27:33They're being really vague, and it's really annoying.
27:35Just block their number.
27:37I tried, and then they called me back on a new one.
27:39You actually seem kind of worried.
27:41Do you want me to do something about it?
27:45What exactly are you going to do, Ethan?
27:47Hey.
27:49I am a big, strong guy.
27:51I can beat him up, or
27:53give him a chokehold, or something.
27:55You're acting like I didn't just watch
27:57Niles Gilmore kick your ass the other night.
27:59No, I think you're
28:01thinking of someone else.
28:03Yeah, I think.
28:05Want me to hang out with you for the day, keep you company?
28:07Let's see.
28:11No, I have to get downtown for
28:13a magazine cover shoot for Liam.
28:15But I'll let you know if I get any more
28:17creepy calls.
28:19Okay, okay, okay.
28:21I'm going to be okay.
28:23Just call me if you need anything else, okay?
28:25I forgot you were a hugger.
28:27Thanks, though.
28:35Sexy! Give me sexy!
28:37Sexy, man!
28:41The camera's pointed to here.
28:45How's everything going?
28:47Not well. They're not interested in the new
28:49Liam Sterling. All they want is a sexy, sexy
28:51man! It's okay, I'll take care
28:53of this.
28:55Hi,
28:57Enzo. I'm Brooke.
28:59Liam's a publicist.
29:01So, we're going for
29:03a new direction with Liam.
29:05More serious, less sexy.
29:07So, why don't we try this?
29:09The magazine wants
29:11a sexy, shirtless, sweaty,
29:13sensual. Unfortunately,
29:15that is not what I agreed upon with the creative team.
29:17So, we're
29:19either going to have to use the suit
29:21or you're going to have to find a different cover star.
29:23At the last minute?
29:25This is how it's going to have to be, Enzo.
29:27Ah, cazzo.
29:29Fine. Suit, change,
29:31hurry!
29:33Mamma mia!
29:39Ben fatto!
29:41Bravissimo!
29:43This is way cool.
29:45So fun to see him in this outfit.
29:47Wait, what are you doing here?
29:49He invited me to see him in action.
29:51Did he really?
29:53That's so sweet of him. He really is a sweetheart.
29:55It's not often you meet a guy that handsome
29:57that isn't also a total douchebag.
29:59That's definitely rare
30:01in our line.
30:03Okay! Great job!
30:05We got the shot!
30:07We made it.
30:09Thanks for having me.
30:11You were great out there.
30:17The suit worked out nicely.
30:19Yeah, thanks again for that.
30:21I don't know what I'd do without you.
30:23Neither do I.
30:25What time is the dinner?
30:27Dinner?
30:31Yeah, um, it's at 7.
30:33We're going to go check out the new sushi spot on Sunset.
30:35I heard the sashimi is to die for.
30:37Liam got us reservations.
30:39Super cool. That sounds fun.
30:41Right?
30:43Thanks again for introducing us, Brooke.
30:45Liam is amazing.
30:47Of course. That's my job.
30:49You guys have fun.
30:51Sashimi!
30:53Thanks, girl.
30:57What the hell are you doing?
30:59He's your client.
31:01You don't like him.
31:03I'm a professional.
31:05Stop.
31:13You're a strong, independent woman.
31:17You don't need him.
31:21Good morning, Brooke.
31:23You have back-to-back meetings today
31:25and Liam Sterling's on the line.
31:27He said it's urgent.
31:29Um, can you phone while I call him back?
31:31Okay.
31:37We positioned Liam as a modern,
31:39thoughtful, leading man.
31:41He's pushed past his heartthrob phase
31:43and now we need to highlight his depth.
31:45His next role will be key in redefining his public image.
31:47I like it, but
31:49don't you think this shift is too sudden?
31:51His fan base may not be ready.
31:53They want apps.
31:55Um,
31:57don't worry.
31:59I have a plan for that.
32:01As you can see here...
32:07There you are.
32:09I've been trying to reach you all day.
32:13Um,
32:15I've been in meetings.
32:17What are you doing in my office?
32:19Margaret,
32:21Brooke, I need to see you.
32:23We have to talk about the other night.
32:27Liam, we can't.
32:29Not now.
32:33We can't just ignore the chemistry between us.
32:47Okay.
32:49The other day was intense, but
32:51we need to keep things professional.
32:53You have a rebrand to focus on and I have a company to run.
32:57I just don't want things to be weird between us.
32:59And I don't want that either.
33:01But we need to cool it
33:03for both of our sakes.
33:13So,
33:15Dylan asked me to be his girlfriend.
33:17We're hard-launching on social media.
33:19That's great, Soph.
33:21You seem happy.
33:23Oh my god, I heard the funniest rumor this morning.
33:25People are saying you and Liam Sterling
33:27are a thing.
33:33Me and Liam?
33:35What?
33:37You know how people talk. I told them it's ridiculous,
33:39but you two do spend a lot of time together.
33:41Liam is just a client, nothing else.
33:43Right.
33:45LA people love to gossip.
33:47I think Dylan is really serious about us.
33:57Who was that?
33:59Just work. Always something.
34:01You're still coming to set tonight, right?
34:03I have that huge scene.
34:05I wouldn't miss it.
34:17Cut!
34:37Cut!
34:39Dylan, I said cut!
34:41Stop punching!
34:44I didn't even realize
34:46Lena was directing this film.
34:48Brooke, she said you're a client.
34:50It's hard to keep a record lately.
34:52Are you okay?
34:54You know, your usual obnoxiously
34:56organized self lately.
34:59Okay, I'm going to tell you this
35:01just because I trust you not to repeat it,
35:03but I am beyond overwhelmed.
35:07Did you get any word that's what you're called?
35:09Yeah, I got a message today,
35:11and that on top of work
35:13and some other stuff
35:15that I'm dealing with.
35:17Just to...
35:19I think you should get some rest.
35:21I can't.
35:23I promised Sophie I'd stay for her scenes.
35:25She's nervous.
35:29She's lucky to have you.
35:31She's like a little sister to me.
35:33Plus, if I left now,
35:35I wouldn't get any sleep anyway, so...
35:37Do you want me to stay over?
35:39Sleep on the couch, just so you're not alone.
35:41Like a sleepover.
35:43That actually sounds really nice, Ethan.
35:45Thanks.
35:47I owe you.
35:49Moving on to the next scene.
35:59Dylan, what are you doing here?
36:01It's a woman's dressing room.
36:03You know what I'm doing.
36:05I literally don't.
36:07You know you want some of this.
36:09You don't have to pretend anymore.
36:11You want some Dylan fucking Parker.
36:15No.
36:17Ew!
36:19I don't want any part of you, Dylan.
36:21You're my client.
36:23I'm your pub sis.
36:25Not to mention you're dating my best friend.
36:27Yeah.
36:29Yeah, she's cute as fuck.
36:31Then act like it.
36:33Because she really likes you.
36:35And if you're not serious about her,
36:37it's gonna hurt.
36:39I'm only dating her for the publicity.
36:41I'm gonna drop her ass as soon as the movie comes out,
36:43and then you and I can finally be together.
36:45You and I?
36:49We are never going to be together.
36:51I'm not even remotely interested in you.
36:53If you try this shit again, I'm dropping you as a client.
36:57Motherfucker.
36:59What the fuck, babe?
37:03Brooke, did you see that?
37:05This seems so much fun.
37:07Um, is everything okay?
37:09I'm just not feeling too well.
37:11Oh, no.
37:13I hope you're not coming down with something.
37:15Um, probably just overworked.
37:17Well, go home. Get some rest.
37:19Are you sure?
37:21I'm positive.
37:23I really appreciate you coming,
37:25but I need you well-rested so that we can party this weekend, okay?
37:27Okay, fair.
37:29But do you have a ride home?
37:31Someone's driving me. I'll see you.
37:35Ready to get out of here?
37:37Beyond ready.
37:39Okay.
37:47I'll just drive.
37:49Let's get out of here.
37:55All right.
37:57The windows and doors are locked, and the alarm system's on.
37:59Thanks for checking.
38:01You're safe.
38:03Personally, one of those messages
38:05is just playing a really bad prank,
38:07or it's Niles being childish again.
38:09I really think so.
38:11I do.
38:13But it's okay to be scared.
38:15I'm here for you.
38:19I don't know how much you mean to me.
38:21All right, good night.
38:23Can you please sleep here with me?
38:25You sure?
38:27I'll always be here for you.
38:45Can't sleep?
38:47No.
38:49You either?
38:53There's something that's been on my mind.
38:55There's something I've been wanting to do.
39:09I've wanted this for so long.
39:13Me too.
39:15More than anything.
39:25I love you.
39:55Good morning.
39:57I made the coffee unbearably strong,
39:59just the way you like it.
40:01Amazing.
40:03So you feeling better now?
40:05Huh?
40:07After what?
40:09From a full night's sleep?
40:11Oh, yeah.
40:13I slept great.
40:15Thanks for staying with me.
40:17I finally felt a little safe.
40:19No problem.
40:21Plus, your bed's infinitely comfier than mine.
40:23That's sad, Ethan.
40:25Hey, mind if I shower real quick before work?
40:27Yeah, you can use the guest bedroom.
40:29Cool.
40:33Ethan?
40:35You need a towel.
40:43Mom, I forgot to...
40:53Oh, wait,
40:55we stuck the towels.
40:57Thanks.
40:59Wanna jump in with me?
41:01Shut up, Liam.
41:05Um, I should probably go get that.
41:07Want me to check it out?
41:09No, no, it's okay.
41:11You shower.
41:13I'll be quick.
41:15Liam?
41:21Dad?
41:23Liam, what are you doing here?
41:25You've been ignoring my calls.
41:27We're supposed to be distancing.
41:29I'm over that.
41:31Look, can I come inside?
41:33No.
41:35No, I don't think that's a good idea.
41:37You're being really weird.
41:39No, I'm being cautious, okay?
41:41People can't see us together.
41:43So let rumors be rumors,
41:45especially if they're true.
41:49No one has to know that.
41:51So what if we're attracted to each other?
41:53So what if I want to see you, Brooke?
41:55I don't care, alright?
41:57I like being around you, and I want to explore our connection.
42:03I can't do this, okay?
42:05Brooke, come on, wait!
42:13Your shower head's incredible.
42:15Gotta guarantee your designer's contact info.
42:17Yeah, they're great.
42:19I'll get it to you.
42:21Who's at the door?
42:23Um...
42:25Just some girls.
42:27Selling cookies.
42:29Do you want to get breakfast?
42:31No, I'm just gonna
42:33head to the office early.
42:35You never turned down breakfast.
42:37Just not hungry.
42:39See you later.
42:43Yeah.
42:47So why'd you call me here?
42:49You wanna offer me representation again?
42:51I'd rather eat glass, Niles.
42:53I want to know why you're leaving me
42:55these insane messages.
42:59This isn't for me.
43:01Don't bullshit us, Niles.
43:03Tell the truth.
43:05I won't be mad.
43:07I didn't send you this.
43:09What about the creepy voice calls?
43:11What about the phone calls?
43:13Brooke, look, I don't have time for this, okay?
43:15Why don't you just admit it?
43:17Look, I'm sorry that I dropped you,
43:19but I have a business to run, okay?
43:21Did you do this or not?
43:23Brooke, let me tell you something.
43:25I have court dates,
43:27no movie deals,
43:29and two excessively large mansions
43:31that I'm trying to figure out how to pay for
43:33to keep out of foreclosure.
43:35So no, I didn't have time to deliver pranks
43:37that you're dealing with.
43:39Do you believe him?
43:41I do.
43:43So can I go, or are you going to try to accuse me
43:45of something else I didn't do?
43:47No, you can go.
43:49Sorry.
43:53We should call the cops, right?
43:55Got an investigation going?
43:57No, not yet.
43:59Thanks, partner.
44:05The customer you're trying to reach
44:07is not available. Please call back.
44:11Hi.
44:13I questioned Niles.
44:15Please call me ASAP.
44:27Sophie, what's going on?
44:29I got your text.
44:31What's the emergency?
44:33He broke up with me, Brooke.
44:35What? When?
44:37When did this happen?
44:39After our last scene.
44:41He said it was because of you
44:43that you didn't think I was good enough to be with him.
44:45What?
44:47I would never say that.
44:49He's lying.
44:51Then why would he blame you?
44:53I don't know. I guess he's using me as an excuse.
44:55I feel so stupid.
44:57I really liked him.
44:59We even got these matching bracelets.
45:01Stupid.
45:03Okay, Dylan messed up.
45:05You deserve better.
45:07Are you sure you didn't tell him to break up with me?
45:09I swear, okay? He's just avoiding accountability.
45:11He's a douche.
45:13How am I supposed to finish this movie with him?
45:17Sophie,
45:19you're a professional.
45:21Don't let him ruin this for you.
45:23You're right.
45:25Yeah. Okay.
45:27One second.
45:29One second.
45:33Ethan, what are you doing here?
45:35Sophie and I have a meeting.
45:37You haven't been answering any of my calls.
45:39Busy day.
45:41Sophie.
45:43What's wrong?
45:45Are you okay?
45:47Dylan broke up with me, but I'm okay.
45:49I'm so sorry to hear that.
45:51Do you want to reschedule the meeting? Because I totally understand.
45:53No, no, no. Absolutely not.
45:55I've been waiting to talk to you.
45:57So have I.
46:01Look, I will see you
46:03after I wrap here tonight.
46:05Can you just shut the door on your way out?
46:07Yeah, sure.
46:11Ethan, call me back whenever you can, okay?
46:13It's really important.
46:15Yeah, okay.
46:17Sigh.
46:25Oh, what's good? It's big deal.
46:27Damn. You fucking liar.
46:29What are you talking about?
46:31Why the hell did you lie to her?
46:33You made it very clear
46:35that you were never going to sleep with me.
46:37I was only dating her to get close to you.
46:39You're disgusting.
46:41I'll make sure your career crashes and burns if you don't admit that you lied to her.
46:43I didn't lie to her.
46:45Okay.
46:47I lied. I lied.
46:49I'm sorry.
46:51I'll apologize to her tonight, okay?
46:53You trying to kill my star?
46:55He's a fool
46:57when stars clacking.
46:59Can we talk? In private?
47:05Wow, nice office.
47:07Sit down.
47:09I know what's wrong.
47:11Did something happen on set?
47:13You tell me.
47:15Because from where I'm standing, something's definitely going on,
47:17just not on my set.
47:19I don't understand.
47:21I'm talking about you and Liam.
47:23You introduced us,
47:25pushed us together,
47:27and all the while you were sleeping with him.
47:29No, it's not like that.
47:31Bullshit.
47:33Everyone's talking about it.
47:35You and Liam sneaking around behind my back.
47:37You think I'm dumb?
47:39Lena, I didn't mean for this to happen.
47:41I know you had a thing between us, but...
47:43What? You didn't expect to fall into his bed?
47:45You set us up like pawns in your game,
47:47and now you want him for yourself?
47:49No, I truly wanted you two to be happy.
47:51You don't care about me.
47:53You only care about your selfish matchmaking games.
47:55You didn't care what this would do to me.
47:57That's not true.
47:59Lena,
48:01I'm sorry.
48:03You're sorry you got caught.
48:05Luckily, I'm over him.
48:07He really is just a shallow, pretty boy.
48:09We're done.
48:11Get out.
48:39Um, Sophie, I said seven.
48:41It's almost eight.
48:43Sorry, we got distracted.
48:45Is that so?
48:47He's so funny. You have to tell Brooke about the story
48:49of your dog in the summer house.
48:51You mean my dog eating the lasagna
48:53that his mom made for dinner?
48:55I know that one.
48:57I was there.
49:03Hey, can you go stir the pot on the stove?
49:05I have to talk to Ethan about a shared client.
49:07On it.
49:09Um,
49:11so I talked to Niles
49:13and he swear it wasn't him.
49:15I don't know if we should believe him, but
49:17I mean, I kind of believe him because I have other
49:19suspects in mind. What do you think?
49:21I don't know, Brooke. Some people are good liars
49:23even those you wouldn't expect.
49:25Yeah, but Niles isn't that good of an actor.
49:27No, he's not.
49:29But clearly you are.
49:31What are you talking about?
49:33I don't want to get into it right now, Brooke.
49:35So?
49:37Since when do you two do nicknames?
49:39We have a lot in common, okay?
49:41And she sees me, Brooke.
49:43Sees you? What does that even mean?
49:45I...
49:51I was just stirring
49:53and all of a sudden this flew through the window.
49:55It wasn't me, I swear.
49:57What is it?
50:01I knew it.
50:03What?
50:07What are you talking about?
50:09Oh my god.
50:13I want to see.
50:15Holy shit, Brooke.
50:17I lied.
50:19You lied to me about the rumors.
50:21You said it was nothing.
50:23I didn't mean to.
50:25I wasn't trying to lie to you.
50:27You weren't trying to lie to me.
50:29We're supposed to tell each other everything.
50:31I didn't want to tell you, Sophie.
50:33So what was I, Brooke?
50:35Just a backup?
50:37Someone to keep around while you were sneaking off with Liam?
50:39No, Ethan, it wasn't like that.
50:41You knew exactly what you were doing.
50:43What?
50:45I thought we were finally going to admit
50:47how we felt about each other.
50:49More than friends.
50:53Ethan, I didn't mean to hurt you.
50:55You hurt us both, Brooke.
50:57I defended you when everybody
50:59was talking behind your back.
51:01I know, I just, I didn't want it to be real.
51:03I thought that if I ignored it,
51:05it would just go away.
51:07Well, it's pretty real now, isn't it?
51:09I thought we had something, Brooke,
51:11in your feelings.
51:13Brooke, you need to figure out what you want.
51:15You can't keep playing with people's emotions.
51:17They're not a game, no matter how much
51:19you'd like them to be.
51:21I deserve better than this, Brooke.
51:23Ethan, I don't understand.
51:25I thought we were just friends.
51:27What is it?
51:29After all these years,
51:31I figured you'd realize that what we had is special.
51:33You are special to me.
51:35Yeah, maybe when you're not falling into bed
51:37with some movie star.
51:39Ethan, wait.
51:41Save it, Brooke.
51:51Oh, no.
51:53They might break it up in your perfectly pristine kitchen.
51:55Are you happy now?
51:57Not even close. You'll pay it.
51:59Go to hell.
52:03I said go to hell!
52:07Whoa, wait.
52:09What did I do?
52:11Liam? I'm sorry, I thought you were someone else.
52:13Look, can I come over?
52:15I want to see you.
52:19Fine.
52:22Good old Hollywood rumor mill strikes again.
52:25It's not a rumor if it's true.
52:27Yeah, it's a shame
52:29things between us had to cause so much drama.
52:31It's crazy. I can craft
52:33and control all of my clients
52:35with public images.
52:37Spin any story around.
52:39Make bad press good.
52:41Shape the way
52:43Hollywood sees them.
52:45But when it comes to
52:47people I actually care about,
52:49I'm powerless.
52:51I have this wall over everything.
52:53Everything's controlled.
52:55It looks easily managed.
52:57But no, in reality,
52:59it's such a mess.
53:01I've spent so long
53:03creating these perfect
53:05lives for everyone else.
53:09I think it's just time for me to be honest about mine.
53:11You know, you can control
53:13everybody else's image.
53:15But when it comes to your own life, sometimes
53:17it burns too bright.
53:19I should have understood the consequences.
53:21For everyone.
53:23For you.
53:25For Lena. For Ethan.
53:27You know, Ethan's not
53:29totally innocent in all this either.
53:31He's been keeping things bottled up
53:33for way too long.
53:35I should have just been honest with him.
53:37Now I'm afraid that I lost him for good.
53:39You won't lose me.
53:41To be determined.
53:43Maybe it's time to stop worrying about control.
53:45William, I'm sorry.
53:47You love Ethan.
53:49Yeah.
53:51I do.
53:53I understand.
53:55And for what it's worth,
53:57I think you should go get what you want.
53:59You're not upset.
54:01I am.
54:03But I would never want to stop you from following your heart.
54:09I'm sorry.
54:11I'm sorry.
54:13I'm sorry.
54:19Hi, Ethan.
54:21Surprise, Brooke.
54:23It's you.
54:25Where's Ethan?
54:27Ethan and Sophie are with me. Let's just say they're safe for now.
54:29You have Sophie too?
54:31Where are you?
54:33Oh, you'll know soon enough.
54:35But here's the thing. If you want to see them again,
54:37play by my rules.
54:39I'll do anything.
54:41Let's go.
54:43I'll drive.
54:53Wait.
54:55If things get out of control, you need to run.
54:57Okay? This doesn't involve you.
54:59I'm not leaving your side.
55:01Okay.
55:05Hello?
55:07Hello?
55:17Welcome to the final act, Brooke.
55:19I'm so glad you could make it.
55:21Let them go.
55:23Thanks for bringing another famous face to me.
55:25I'll make a great addition to my kill tower.
55:27No one's getting killed tonight.
55:31No!
55:33Well, I guess it's time for the big reveal.
55:37Niles.
55:39You swore that it wasn't Brooke.
55:41I'm a fucking actor.
55:43All we do is lie.
55:45You know, Brooke,
55:47for someone who thinks they hold all the power,
55:49you really are just another stupid, stupid
55:51Hollywood girl.
55:53You're insane.
55:55Tell me what you want so we can get this over with.
55:57What do I want?
55:59I want you all to feel like I felt
56:01when I was betrayed.
56:03You think you're untouchable.
56:05PR queen.
56:07Always in control.
56:09But Brooke,
56:11you're just like the rest of us.
56:13Disposable.
56:15This is all because of your stupid ego.
56:17Ego?
56:19No.
56:21Brooke, this is about your company.
56:23Liam.
56:25Sophie.
56:27Ethan.
56:29They stole your attention from me.
56:31They stole your attention from me.
56:33But I'm taking it back.
56:35You're wrong, Niles.
56:37PR isn't about power.
56:39It's about helping people.
56:41And I tried to help you, but you're Beyoncé.
56:43Nope.
56:45Brooke, be honest with yourself.
56:47It's about
56:49bending people to your will.
56:51Do you really think
56:53that you can play puppet master forever?
57:01You're quick.
57:03But not quick enough.
57:07Come to help.
57:09I don't think so.
57:19Show's over, Niles.
57:21I'm a fucking movie star.
57:23You can't kill me.
57:25I'm in control.
57:31I'm in control.
57:41Brooke, you really kicked his ass.
57:43Oh my god, you fucked him up.
57:45Brooke, I'm so sorry.
57:47No, this is all my fault.
57:49No, Brooke.
57:51I've wasted the last ten years of my life
57:53hiding the way I felt about you.
57:55I don't want to hide anymore.
57:57I'm so desperately in love with you.
57:59I can't live another day of my life without you by my side.
58:01I will not stop fighting until I win you back from Liam.
58:03Ethan, Liam and I were nothing, okay?
58:05I'm in love with you.
58:07Okay?
58:09And I'm sorry that I've been hiding...
58:21I love you, Ethan Prescott.
58:23I love you, Brooke Harington.
58:25Guys, I'm...
58:27I'm still tied up.
58:33No, it's cool.
58:35I got it.
58:37Liam, I'm so glad you're okay.
58:41Hey, can I ask you something?
58:43Anything.
58:45I look, like, really heroic, right?
58:47I mean, until I got knocked out.
58:49Yes.
58:51It was fair.
58:55Why don't you say we get out of here?
58:57That sounds like a good idea to me.
58:59Um, guys?
59:01Where's Niles?
59:03He must have ran off.
59:05He won't get very far.
59:07He's not a very fast runner, huh?
59:09I love you.
59:23You did good, Brooke.
59:27Couldn't do it without you.
59:29What do you say we take to the carpet, Niles?
59:31I'd go anywhere with you.
59:39I love you.
