00:00:00Jesus, what?
00:00:07You're late on your child support again, Daniel.
00:00:17Just another hopeless ex-wife looking for her hand out, huh?
00:00:20Look at you!
00:00:22You insisted that I quit my career so that I could take care of our daughter.
00:00:25Now you're leaving us high and dry.
00:00:27Go make your own money, huh?
00:00:28I am!
00:00:29It's just not enough to pay for Cecilia's summer camp.
00:00:31We need your help.
00:00:33Well, well.
00:00:34Isn't this your loser ex?
00:00:36You call your food delivery gig making money?
00:00:38You're such a loser.
00:00:40She brings nothing of value to a family.
00:00:43Unlike you, Barry.
00:00:44I don't bring value?
00:00:48You cheated on me with her and you broke our family, Damien!
00:00:51Anyone would believe you, Rachel.
00:00:53Just look at yourself.
00:00:55What did I tell you?
00:00:56I bought this red thing and bought this red thing yesterday.
00:01:00You like it?
00:01:02You'd rather waste your money on her than your own daughter, sweetie.
00:01:06It's a good lesson to learn.
00:01:07Why don't you start getting used to it?
00:01:09You have a delivery.
00:01:12Why don't you go make money for your tramping little daughter?
00:01:15Bye!
00:01:17What did you just say?
00:01:19About my daughter?
00:01:22Ah!
00:01:26Ah!
00:01:29Caroline.
00:01:47Mom, is everything okay?
00:01:51Yes, honey.
00:01:53Are you sure you don't want to go say hi to daddy?
00:01:58You know what?
00:02:00How about we go on an adventure together?
00:02:04I just got a food delivery order.
00:02:07Why don't you come with me?
00:02:09Let's go!
00:02:22Come here.
00:02:30Wait in the car for me, okay?
00:02:43Hey, Leslie.
00:02:44Austin, my darling, I just sent over a few potential candidate resumes.
00:02:48Candidates? For what?
00:02:50Your new personal assistant. Remember?
00:02:53You fired the last one.
00:02:55The last one fawned over me. She never got anything done.
00:02:57Because you're one of the biggest stars in town.
00:02:59Everyone adores you.
00:03:00That's the problem.
00:03:02Hold on a second.
00:03:08Austin?
00:03:13Austin?
00:03:14I've really got to get better security.
00:03:17Do you want an autograph?
00:03:18A picture is fine.
00:03:20Sure. Okay.
00:03:27This food...
00:03:29I thought you wanted to take a selfie with me.
00:03:31Why would I want a selfie with you?
00:03:33Because I'm me.
00:03:36And you are?
00:03:38I'm...
00:03:40You really don't know who I am?
00:03:42Sir, it's great that you have all this free time in your massive mansion
00:03:46to mess with a delivery person.
00:03:48But I have some food orders to get to.
00:03:50So, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go.
00:03:54What?
00:03:58It was that woman.
00:04:00No.
00:04:02Today.
00:04:04My dear boyfriend!
00:04:07Hello, my dear boyfriend!
00:04:10For the thousandth time, I'm not your boyfriend.
00:04:13The contract says that we are boyfriend and girlfriend.
00:04:17Exactly. A contract.
00:04:19To promote the movie that we were in.
00:04:23Oh, shoot. I think I grabbed the wrong bag.
00:04:25I'll be right back.
00:04:29Don't pretend like the chemistry isn't real.
00:04:34What we have is real.
00:04:38This is my girlfriend.
00:04:40What are you doing?
00:04:41Just play along, please.
00:04:45Yep.
00:04:47This is my boyfriend.
00:04:50I don't believe it.
00:04:52She seems more like a delivery girl.
00:04:58I knew it.
00:05:00You can't get rid of me that easily.
00:05:02God, I hate this girl.
00:05:04You better include a big tip for this.
00:05:12Deeply in love.
00:05:14You replaced me with a nobody?
00:05:16I think you should go.
00:05:18You're intruding on our quality time.
00:05:22This isn't over.
00:05:26That was close.
00:05:30That's for getting me in this mess.
00:05:32Do you know how many people would kill to kiss me?
00:05:35Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?
00:05:37Do you know how many people would kill to kiss me?
00:05:39Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?
00:05:41Wait, you really don't know who I am?
00:05:52Leslie, did you order me food?
00:05:54Oh, right. I forgot to tell you.
00:05:56My assistant's handling your stuff for now until we find you a new one.
00:05:59About that.
00:06:01I think I got a better idea.
00:06:08Silver Lake Agency invites you for a job interview.
00:06:12But I never applied to this.
00:06:16They're one of the biggest talent agencies in Hollywood.
00:06:20Mom, that's so cool. It's like a sign.
00:06:22But I've never worked in that industry.
00:06:24So what? You're super awesome.
00:06:26They'd be lucky to have you.
00:06:28I don't deserve you.
00:06:37Wish me luck.
00:06:45What brings you here, ma'am?
00:06:47I am here for an interview with Leslie Lee.
00:06:49Do you have any idea who she is?
00:06:52As the owner of this agency, Ms. Lee doesn't waste her time with...
00:06:56Well, people like you.
00:06:58I'm telling the truth.
00:07:00Sure. And I'm the Queen of England.
00:07:03That'd be a stretch, wouldn't it?
00:07:05Morning, Leslie. Ms. Herman?
00:07:08I'm Leslie Lee.
00:07:09Hi.
00:07:10Follow me.
00:07:17You come highly recommended by one of our clients.
00:07:20I guess your resume must be very impressive.
00:07:22So let's take a look, shall we?
00:07:26All right.
00:07:31You haven't worked in years.
00:07:36You haven't worked in years.
00:07:41I took time off to watch over my daughter.
00:07:44But I've been doing some part-time jobs while I'm applying for work.
00:07:48Okay. What do you do part-time?
00:07:51Food delivery, mostly.
00:07:54I don't think your experience aligns with what we're looking for.
00:07:59I understand.
00:08:01Thank you for your time.
00:08:03You're just gonna give up that easy?
00:08:05I thought you were feistier than that.
00:08:07You?
00:08:08Austin, my darling, we have tons of qualified people applying for the job.
00:08:12Some of them are even Ivy League graduates.
00:08:15You really don't need to hire an inexperienced housewife to be your assistant.
00:08:21So that's what this is, huh?
00:08:25Did you organize this whole thing to humiliate me?
00:08:29What?
00:08:30Yeah, sure.
00:08:31I'm a broke single mom.
00:08:33I didn't get a fancy degree or climb the corporate ladder.
00:08:38But I'm perfectly smart and capable.
00:08:42Do you realize how hard it is to be a single parent?
00:08:45To manage a household?
00:08:47Handle finances?
00:08:49Organize events?
00:08:50I supported my daughter and myself through really hard times.
00:08:55And I think those experiences are good for any job, including a personal assistant.
00:09:02That's the feisty I'm talking about.
00:09:04It's indeed very impressive, but still...
00:09:06Leslie, did I mention there's another agency looking to bring me on board?
00:09:12Welcome aboard, Rachel.
00:09:14You're gonna make a great assistant for Austin.
00:09:16Who will be staying with us for the foreseeable future, right?
00:09:20I will let them know that I love my dear Leslie too much to walk away.
00:09:24I'll be with Silver Lake Agency for a while.
00:09:33Thank you so much for this opportunity.
00:09:36I promise I won't let you down.
00:09:39But can I ask why you decided to help me?
00:09:43I wasn't helping you.
00:09:45I was helping myself.
00:09:46You don't know me, so you're less likely to develop a schoolgirl crush like everyone else.
00:09:54Oh, you weren't joking.
00:09:56Let's get to work.
00:09:58I need everything on this list.
00:10:04All of this?
00:10:05All of it.
00:10:24I think I changed my mind.
00:10:45I'd like a Chardonnay instead.
00:10:49Now?
00:10:51The store is on the other side of LA.
00:10:53It's gonna take two hours during rush hour.
00:10:55I can always let Leslie know that this job didn't seem so important to you.
00:11:02I'm on it.
00:11:08Hi.
00:11:09I'm just checking in that you're picking up Cecilia like we agreed.
00:11:13Anyway, call me back.
00:11:24As you requested.
00:11:32Pour me a glass.
00:11:46It's fucking red.
00:11:50Go get me a Chardonnay.
00:11:51Are you fucking kidding me?
00:11:53You want me to go to the store again?
00:11:56Not unless you want your first day to be your last.
00:12:05Give me strength.
00:12:07This is for Cecilia.
00:12:10Who are you talking to?
00:12:12You.
00:12:13As you wish.
00:12:16Hello?
00:12:18What?
00:12:20Yeah, I'll be right there.
00:12:22What's wrong?
00:12:23You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:12:25It's my daughter.
00:12:30Cece?
00:12:31Hi, Mom.
00:12:33Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry.
00:12:36How are you feeling?
00:12:38A bit dizzy.
00:12:40They had to put some stitches in.
00:12:42What happened?
00:12:43I was waiting for Dad, but he never showed up.
00:12:46Some kids started making fun of me,
00:12:48and then Ryan pushed me.
00:12:50I fell and hit my head.
00:12:52This is all my fault.
00:12:55Mom, it's okay.
00:12:56It doesn't even hurt that much.
00:12:59Can you get me some candy?
00:13:01I'll feel much better.
00:13:05Okay, sweet tooth.
00:13:08Okay, sweet tooth.
00:13:10I'll go get you some.
00:13:19What the fuck is going on?
00:13:21You failed to pick up Cecilia today,
00:13:23and now she's in the hospital because of a bully.
00:13:25That's what's going on.
00:13:26Are you kidding me?
00:13:27Kids play around.
00:13:28What the fuck does this have to do with me?
00:13:30You don't deserve to be a father.
00:13:33Watch your fucking tone.
00:13:35Watch your fucking tone.
00:13:38A man who hits a woman is no man.
00:13:41What the fuck?
00:13:47What the fuck?
00:13:49Who do you think you are?
00:13:51You're that celebrity hotshot kid, Austin Cooper.
00:13:57So that's how you make your moves, huh?
00:14:00You gold-digging bitch.
00:14:02I was in Panda Strike 2.
00:14:06I will make your life a living hell.
00:14:08You...
00:14:09You think you're so tough, don't you?
00:14:12You're a scrubotie.
00:14:17Are you okay?
00:14:21I'm fine.
00:14:23What happened?
00:14:25My daughter got bullied.
00:14:27I should have just picked her up
00:14:29when my ex didn't answer the phone.
00:14:31I'm sorry.
00:14:33It's fine. It's not your fault.
00:14:35It...
00:14:36kinda was.
00:14:38What do you mean?
00:14:40I don't care about the wine.
00:14:45So you were just tortured.
00:14:47You called me a jackass after I got you the job.
00:14:49So I just...
00:14:50But then I thanked you.
00:14:52I know.
00:14:53But our...
00:14:54Austin Cooper?
00:14:55Cecilia, you need some rest.
00:14:57Mom, I'm fine.
00:14:58You didn't tell me you were working with Austin Cooper.
00:15:00You're on TV all the time.
00:15:02Can I get a selfie?
00:15:03Sure.
00:15:04Damn, why does everyone know him but I don't?
00:15:06Mom, can I borrow your phone?
00:15:09Uh, yeah, sweetie.
00:15:16Mom!
00:15:17Yeah?
00:15:18Come on, Mom.
00:15:19Okay.
00:15:26Cecilia.
00:15:27You were bullied?
00:15:29Why don't we go teach that bully a lesson?
00:15:40Thank you all for coming.
00:15:42We're here to discuss the incident involving Cecilia and Ryan.
00:15:46We don't see what the fuss is about.
00:15:50Your kid sent my daughter to the hospital.
00:15:53Kids fall down all the time.
00:15:55Maybe Cecilia shouldn't have been waiting alone.
00:15:59What are you getting at?
00:16:00If she had a proper father figure, she might have been better protected.
00:16:04Let's just stay focused on the incident itself.
00:16:09Is that...
00:16:11Austin Cooper?
00:16:13Yep.
00:16:14Everybody loves him.
00:16:17As a friend of Rachel and Cecilia, I figured I'd help out.
00:16:21This is the security footage from that day.
00:16:25As you can see, Ryan clearly pushed Cecilia.
00:16:29On purpose.
00:16:30Thank you, Mr. Cooper.
00:16:32The evidence is very clear.
00:16:37We'll address Ryan and his parents.
00:16:39There will be appropriate consequences.
00:16:41Thank you, Ms. Parker.
00:16:55My daddy and mommy will protect me.
00:16:57Not like your parents.
00:17:04Let me.
00:17:10Ryan, right?
00:17:16You think it's okay to push people around?
00:17:18I didn't mean to.
00:17:20I'm sure you didn't mean to.
00:17:22But does it change the fact that you hurt someone?
00:17:24It's not as much about the push as about how you made someone else feel.
00:17:28And you have to ask yourself,
00:17:30are you okay with making other people feel bad?
00:17:32Now, I'm not here to make your life miserable.
00:17:34I'm here to give you a chance to make things work.
00:17:38Start by apologizing to Cecilia.
00:17:42I'm really sorry, Cecilia.
00:17:45I'm really sorry, Cecilia.
00:17:53That's a good start.
00:17:54But remember, it's not just about saying.
00:17:57It's about showing that you mean it.
00:18:04Now, let's get you something sweet.
00:18:07You've had a rough day.
00:18:14I'm sorry.
00:18:35Thank you for all of that.
00:18:37It's the least I can do.
00:18:41Oh, by the way,
00:18:45I'm sorry.
00:18:59Are you okay?
00:19:00Yeah, I'm fine.
00:19:03This is your schedule for next week.
00:19:06I labeled and organized it for you.
00:19:08Of course.
00:19:15I'm gonna go.
00:19:16I'll see you tomorrow.
00:19:18See ya.
00:19:23That was close.
00:19:34Okay, folks.
00:19:35Today's meeting is about the promo strategies
00:19:37for Alston and Amanda's new movie.
00:19:39We need to discuss the relationship contract first.
00:19:42You know, the one about Alston and Amanda
00:19:44faking a romance to promote the film?
00:19:46I'm not doing that.
00:19:48The studio expects this of us.
00:19:50Our personal life is not for sale.
00:19:52Why can't you just admit that you like me?
00:19:55Why can't you just quit making things up in your head?
00:19:57We need a solution that respects Alston's wishes
00:19:59while still promoting the movie.
00:20:01Here are those documents that you need to look at.
00:20:04Here are those documents that you need to look at.
00:20:09You're the delivery girl who's claiming to be
00:20:11in a relationship with Alston.
00:20:13How dare you walk-
00:20:14Enough!
00:20:17How dare you walk-
00:20:18Enough!
00:20:20So, Alston's new assistant is really his lover as well?
00:20:25How convenient.
00:20:26Talk about sleeping your way up.
00:20:29If I don't sign up for Rachel now,
00:20:30it would affect her job.
00:20:32Rachel's not my girlfriend.
00:20:36We just said that to get you off my back.
00:20:38I knew it.
00:20:40Brad?
00:20:42You want to say something?
00:20:44Alston is contractually obligated to date me.
00:20:46Right, right, I'm on it.
00:20:49The contract says if either of you
00:20:52doesn't follow the relationship clause,
00:20:55you'll lose a big chunk of your box office profits.
00:20:59I'm fully aware.
00:21:00Alston, regardless of your personal life,
00:21:02you're going to have to do what the contract says.
00:21:04Actually, not really.
00:21:09There's a clause in here that could help us out.
00:21:11Like you know anything about contracts?
00:21:13I've read them enough to realize that
00:21:15sometimes there's room for interpretation.
00:21:18Let me see.
00:21:20Oh, right here.
00:21:22It states that Alston is required to engage
00:21:25in public activities to suggest romantic
00:21:29connection with Amanda.
00:21:31It doesn't state exact activities that he needs to do.
00:21:37I see it right here.
00:21:39Public activities.
00:21:41Not spending time together.
00:21:45Meaning, Alston can fulfill his obligations
00:21:48with social media posts and virtual interactions
00:21:51that suggest a connection.
00:21:53So, no need for actual dates or paparazzi posts.
00:22:00You didn't tell me about this.
00:22:02I must have missed that detail.
00:22:05I'm sorry, I thought...
00:22:08This still isn't over.
00:22:11I'm going to find a way to get us together.
00:22:13One way or another.
00:22:19Maybe we should take this elsewhere.
00:22:22Excuse us.
00:22:28I think you just saved me from a PR nightmare.
00:22:31Of course.
00:22:32Just trying to keep a professional...
00:22:43Seems like we have a really good team here.
00:22:45I'm curious.
00:22:46How did you know about the loophole?
00:22:48It takes a pair of eyes familiar with the law.
00:22:51I was in law school, but then I had to drop out
00:22:53to support my ex-husband.
00:22:56How is that woman getting so much attention
00:22:58from both Alston and Leslie?
00:23:00Tell me about it.
00:23:01She's lagging.
00:23:02Duffer.
00:23:03Holly, the receptionist, told me that Alston
00:23:05got her the job.
00:23:08Don't talk about sleeping your way up.
00:23:10Maybe she's sleeping with me.
00:23:14Maybe.
00:23:17Definitely.
00:23:26Hey, Rachel.
00:23:28Oh, God, looks like you could use a break.
00:23:31How about grabbing a bite to eat or something?
00:23:35Thank you, but I have a lot on my plate right now,
00:23:38so maybe some other time?
00:23:40Come on.
00:23:41Just a little bite to eat.
00:23:43Look, I know how hard it is to climb up in this agency.
00:23:47I could help you out, you know.
00:23:51I'm good right where I am.
00:23:53What, I'm not as good as Alston is to you?
00:23:55You think you're better than me or something?
00:23:57I'm here to do my job, not play games.
00:23:59You don't want to be an assistant forever, do you?
00:24:02I could help you become an agent.
00:24:05I'll have a little fun on the side.
00:24:07Get your hands off of me, pig.
00:24:10You are just a dirty whore playing like this.
00:24:13Come on.
00:24:14Hey.
00:24:22Hey.
00:24:23Oh, hi. I thought you were still in meetings.
00:24:26We finished early.
00:24:30You okay?
00:24:31I was just about to take your files to the casting director.
00:24:34Oh, excuse me.
00:24:45Hey, Alston.
00:24:47Oh, by the way, congratulations on the movie.
00:24:50Cut the crap.
00:24:52What is this about?
00:24:54You know exactly why I'm here.
00:24:56I know what you did to Rachel.
00:24:59Look, Alston, I was just joking around.
00:25:02No harm done.
00:25:03I mean, she's just a whore.
00:25:05That's...
00:25:06Ah!
00:25:07Ah!
00:25:10Ah!
00:25:11Ah!
00:25:13Oh, God damn it!
00:25:17I'm gonna sue you!
00:25:19If you even think about retaliating against Rachel or me,
00:25:23I'll make sure you're blacklisted in Hollywood.
00:25:26Yeah, you would.
00:25:28You'll never make a comeback.
00:25:30Okay?
00:25:31I get it. I get it.
00:25:36Just wanted you to know that we've taken care of the situation.
00:25:39Alston told me everything.
00:25:41That kind of behavior will not be tolerated here at Silver Lake.
00:25:45What?
00:25:46Look.
00:25:51Rachel?
00:25:52Rachele?
00:25:54Who told him?
00:25:55I'll see you later.
00:25:57I thought you did.
00:25:58You wanna be an agent?
00:25:59No.
00:26:01Excuse me.
00:26:12Rachel, what are you doing here?
00:26:36What happened to keeping things professional?
00:26:39It's...
00:26:40It's just stuff, darling.
00:27:09I have a confession.
00:27:11I think I fell in love with you the first time I saw you.
00:27:16Even after I slapped you?
00:27:19Takes a lot to surprise me nowadays.
00:27:22I can't just keep bringing surprises.
00:27:26So do you.
00:27:28I'm not on set for that.
00:27:30I'm not on set for that.
00:27:31I'm not on set for that.
00:27:32I'm not on set for that.
00:27:33I'm not on set for that.
00:27:34I'm not on set for that.
00:27:35I'm not on set for that.
00:27:37I'm not on set for the next couple days.
00:27:40How about I take you and Cecilia shopping?
00:27:44I'd like that.
00:27:54Ooh, look at this dress.
00:27:57You really have a matching one, Chris.
00:28:00That's pretty.
00:28:02Excuse me.
00:28:03Excuse me.
00:28:05Can I help you with something?
00:28:07No, thank you.
00:28:08We were just looking around.
00:28:10Yeah, not everyone can afford to shop here,
00:28:12but maybe you'd be more comfortable somewhere else?
00:28:17Come on, let's go, Cece.
00:28:19We don't want to be in a place that's managed by rude people.
00:28:24Oh my gosh, Mr. Cooper, welcome!
00:28:26How can I assist you?
00:28:28Did you guys see anything that you liked?
00:28:30Let's just go somewhere else.
00:28:31Austin, you should have seen the dresses that they have here.
00:28:33They're so pretty.
00:28:34But Mommy said we can't shop at a store that's managed by rude people.
00:28:38Actually, I think we should do the opposite.
00:28:41Let's show these rude people what they're missing.
00:28:46Mr. Cooper, I did not know you'd be here today.
00:28:48I would be honored to serve you.
00:28:50Oh, you won't be helping me.
00:28:52You'll be serving these two lovely ladies here.
00:28:55Of course, I'm Ms.
00:28:57Herman.
00:28:58Ms. Herman.
00:29:00Let me walk you through our latest collection.
00:29:02I think they'll fit you very well.
00:29:05What about these shoes?
00:29:07Oh, I love these ones.
00:29:10And they happen to be my size.
00:29:14Could you please help Ms. Herman try these shoes on?
00:29:18Yeah, sure.
00:29:21It'd be awful if word got out about the lousy service.
00:29:25Of course.
00:29:36Oh!
00:29:37It's not that big of a deal.
00:29:43It's perfect.
00:29:45Oh.
00:29:47Oh.
00:29:50Wonderful.
00:30:00Oh.
00:30:05Les, Les, Lesley, Lesley.
00:30:07Can you compare Austin as your girlfriend?
00:30:09Austin just got out of a relationship with Hannah Scott.
00:30:11He's focused on his career right now.
00:30:13What about the pics?
00:30:14They're all over social media.
00:30:15Yeah, we spoke to the sales assistant
00:30:17and she said that the woman in the picture
00:30:19is married and has a kid.
00:30:21Is he sleeping with a married woman?
00:30:23Basis rumors, sir.
00:30:24Hey, Austin is a professional.
00:30:25He respects everyone involved.
00:30:27You simply enjoy his single life.
00:30:38You're looking for me?
00:30:43Explain this.
00:30:50I'm so sorry about this photo.
00:30:52This was a private moment.
00:30:54I didn't think anyone was going to take a photo of us.
00:30:56I thought you two were just having a professional relationship.
00:30:59We are, but things are a little different.
00:31:06Do you really care about Austin?
00:31:08Yes, of course.
00:31:10Then you should know that this could hurt his career.
00:31:12He's one of Hollywood's biggest stars right now.
00:31:15He can't be seen in public with a single mom.
00:31:18It's not the image that we worked so hard to cultivate for him.
00:31:23I'm sorry.
00:31:25It's alright.
00:31:26I won't let it happen again.
00:31:28Thank you, Rachel.
00:31:30I know it isn't easy,
00:31:32but it's for the best.
00:31:49Hey, babe.
00:31:50Hi.
00:31:52I didn't know you were home.
00:31:55Got off work early?
00:31:57Why didn't you tell me you were going to be here?
00:32:00I was just dropping off some costumes.
00:32:04Is everything okay?
00:32:08Yeah, everything's fine.
00:32:10I just have a lot on my plate right now.
00:32:17Did I do something wrong?
00:32:19You seem different.
00:32:22You didn't do anything.
00:32:24I think I just need some space.
00:32:27I've been tiring you out.
00:32:29Do you want to take a few days off?
00:32:31I, um...
00:32:33I've been thinking...
00:32:37We should just keep this professional.
00:32:43What do you mean?
00:32:45I thought...
00:32:47I thought we had something more.
00:32:50I need to focus on my job.
00:32:53And make sure I can provide for Cecilia.
00:32:56She's my priority.
00:32:58I can easily provide for the both of you.
00:33:00I don't need your charity.
00:33:02I can make my own money.
00:33:04You think it's for charity?
00:33:06That it wasn't real?
00:33:08Real or not,
00:33:10we just...
00:33:12we don't work.
00:33:14Who knows how long it would last, so...
00:33:18Let's just end this before it gets too busy.
00:33:22So that's it?
00:33:24We're just gonna act like nothing happened between the two of us?
00:33:29It's for the best.
00:33:31If that's what you want.
00:33:52Come on, you're Austin Cooper.
00:33:54You could have any girl.
00:33:56Why are you hung up on some single mom?
00:33:58It's not just about her being a single mom.
00:34:01She's different than all the other girls that we know.
00:34:04How?
00:34:06She's smart.
00:34:08Resilient.
00:34:10And a great mom.
00:34:12She's been through hell and back.
00:34:14She's still standing strong.
00:34:16I admire that.
00:34:18So it's not just about the chemistry?
00:34:20I mean, the chemistry is great, too.
00:34:22But she's the only person that hasn't been affected by my fame.
00:34:28You sound like she's really gotten under your skin.
00:34:32She has.
00:34:36Well, why are you just moping around here?
00:34:38You should go find her and show her your songs.
00:34:45You're right.
00:34:47I can't just give up on her.
00:34:50I can't.
00:35:08Great.
00:35:11Need a hand with that?
00:35:14Sure, yeah. Thank you, that'd be great.
00:35:17I've seen you around, but
00:35:19I guess we've never officially met.
00:35:21I'm Nate. I just moved into the house across the street.
00:35:24Nice to meet you, Nate. I'm Rachel.
00:35:26I'm sorry you had to meet me in such a clumsy moment.
00:35:30Don't worry about it. Everyone has those days.
00:35:33Yeah, tell me about it.
00:35:36Oh, don't worry about it. I'll take that.
00:35:50Thank you so much for this.
00:35:53I didn't realize how much I overdid it until I got home.
00:35:57Happy to help.
00:35:59Where does this go?
00:36:01Oh, don't worry about that. Just put it on the counter.
00:36:04I've been meaning to properly introduce myself for a while.
00:36:09Maybe we could get coffee sometime.
00:36:11I'd love to get to know you better.
00:36:13Um...
00:36:15Things are a bit complicated for me right now.
00:36:20Um, I don't think it's the best time.
00:36:27No worries at all.
00:36:29The effort's there if you ever change your mind.
00:36:32Thank you so much for understanding, and thank you for your help.
00:36:38Of course, Rachel. It was my pleasure.
00:36:42I'll see you later, Nate.
00:36:45You too, Rachel. See you around.
00:37:12I love you.
00:37:28Austin! Austin! Over here! Over here!
00:37:31Can you comment on the dating rumor that's been circulating?
00:37:34I'm single and living my best life.
00:37:37Dating's overrated anyway.
00:37:39What about the rumors linking you to a mystery woman?
00:37:42They're just rumors.
00:37:44I'm just focusing on my career and hanging out with friends.
00:37:47And that's that.
00:37:50Can you hold this, please?
00:37:53Of course.
00:38:04Amanda! Over here! Amanda!
00:38:10Amanda!
00:38:12Comment on the dating rumor.
00:38:15Rachel!
00:38:17Didn't you just get dumped?
00:38:20What do you want me to do?
00:38:28What are you doing?
00:38:31Someone help! This woman's attacking me!
00:38:35Anything. She's just making stuff up.
00:38:37What's going on here?
00:38:39She followed me in here, and she's harassing me.
00:38:41She's not supposed to be here.
00:38:43What? I'm Austin Cooper's assistant.
00:38:45I had a badge, but she threw it away.
00:38:48We're going to have to escort you out.
00:38:50But I'm not lying. This is Austin's blazer.
00:38:53Yeah, right. And I'm George Clooney. Come on. Let's go.
00:38:56Hold on. She's with me.
00:38:58She's not a stalker, and she definitely doesn't need any escorting.
00:39:01But Miss Scott said...
00:39:03I don't care what Miss Scott said.
00:39:05Rachel's with me, and I can vouch for her.
00:39:07Austin! She's getting...
00:39:09Enough, Amanda!
00:39:11I know what you're doing.
00:39:13It's not going to work.
00:39:16I'm sorry, Mr. Cooper.
00:39:18Our apologies.
00:39:24Austin.
00:39:30Rachel. Pull yourself together.
00:39:33You can't have a relationship with Austin.
00:39:43It's just work, right?
00:39:56I can't let that woman win.
00:39:59Brad.
00:40:01Remember that woman who used to follow Austin around?
00:40:04I need to get in contact with her.
00:40:13Sarah, right?
00:40:15Oh my god. Oh my god. Amanda Scott. I can't believe you're real.
00:40:22You love Austin, right?
00:40:25Really?
00:40:29But I know he's with you. I'm so glad.
00:40:31You're such a goddess. I love you both.
00:40:33Of course I'm a goddess.
00:40:35But that's not the point.
00:40:37The point is that Austin and I have broken up.
00:40:42Another woman came between us.
00:40:45That delivery girl?
00:40:47Isn't that just a rumor?
00:40:49No. It's true.
00:40:51Her name is Rachel Herman.
00:40:54Rachel Herman?
00:40:56Sarah.
00:40:58If I can't be with Austin,
00:41:00the next person he's with should be you.
00:41:03Not her. Don't you agree?
00:41:06Sarah.
00:41:08Don't give up on Austin.
00:41:11I think you should go after him.
00:41:14You're right. I love him.
00:41:17I can't let anyone else have him.
00:41:19Except you.
00:41:20That's my girl.
00:41:22I won't let you down.
00:41:24Perfect.
00:41:35Rachel. What's up?
00:41:38You look like you have something on your mind.
00:41:42I've been thinking, Leslie.
00:41:46I want to resign.
00:41:48Resign?
00:41:49You're doing such a fantastic job.
00:41:52It's just too difficult
00:41:54working around Austin all the time
00:41:56pretending everything's fine and it's not.
00:41:59I get it.
00:42:00But you know, you've proved yourself to be incredibly capable.
00:42:04Have you considered moving up the ladder?
00:42:08What do you mean?
00:42:11I want to offer you a chance to become a junior talent agent.
00:42:14You won't be Austin's assistant anymore.
00:42:16You'll be working with your own clients.
00:42:19And I know you have the potential, Rachel.
00:42:21I know you can do it.
00:42:23Really?
00:42:24Absolutely.
00:42:26I'll assign some new clients to you.
00:42:28Actually, I have already been networking and
00:42:32keeping my eye out, so
00:42:36I know of a few up-and-coming talents.
00:42:40That's fantastic.
00:42:42I can't wait to meet them.
00:42:45Thank you, Leslie.
00:42:47I won't let you down.
00:42:49What about Austin?
00:42:51How do you want to handle that?
00:42:54I'll tell him in person.
00:43:15Hey.
00:43:27Hey.
00:43:30What's that?
00:43:34These are all your personal items that were left at my place.
00:43:40I figured I should tell you in person.
00:43:45Leslie offered me a position as junior agent,
00:43:50so I'll be working with my own clients,
00:43:53and I won't be your assistant anymore.
00:43:57So I'll be working with my own clients,
00:44:00and I won't be your assistant anymore.
00:44:04I figured I should just drop your stuff off.
00:44:08Congrats.
00:44:11Working on your career, just like you always wanted.
00:44:15Just like you're doing.
00:44:18Congrats on snatching another nomination.
00:44:23Thanks.
00:44:32Bye, Austin.
00:45:00Hi, Rachel.
00:45:11Rachel?
00:45:25Rachel, are you here?
00:45:33Rachel, what are you doing here?
00:45:37Sarah, what are you doing here?
00:45:42We talked about this.
00:45:44I have a restraining order against you.
00:45:46You shouldn't be in my house.
00:45:48But, Austin, it's been two years already.
00:45:50I'm your biggest fan.
00:45:52I watch every movie, every interview.
00:45:54I just know we're meant to be together.
00:45:56No, it's good to see you again,
00:45:59but you shouldn't be here.
00:46:01You don't understand.
00:46:02We belong together.
00:46:03You don't belong to this woman.
00:46:05I appreciate your support,
00:46:06but you have crossed a line.
00:46:09Let's get you home safe.
00:46:11First, you need to let Rachel go.
00:46:14No.
00:46:15She stole it from me.
00:46:18Please, Sarah, I have a daughter.
00:46:20You don't deserve him.
00:46:21None of you do.
00:46:23Sarah, put the gun down.
00:46:25We can talk about this.
00:46:26No one needs to get hurt.
00:46:28You won't leave him alone.
00:46:29I will make sure you do.
00:46:31Say you love me, Austin,
00:46:33or she will die.
00:46:35I love you, Sarah.
00:46:38I love you, too.
00:46:40Put the gun down.
00:46:42This isn't you.
00:46:46That's right.
00:46:47No, please, Sarah, I have a daughter.
00:46:49Sarah, no one needs to get hurt today.
00:46:54Oh, my God, Austin.
00:46:56No, I didn't mean to hurt you.
00:46:58Austin, are you okay?
00:47:00I'm so sorry.
00:47:01I didn't mean to hurt anyone.
00:47:07I'm so sorry.
00:47:08I didn't want to hurt anyone.
00:47:13Oh, my God, Austin, are you okay?
00:47:15I'm fine.
00:47:16He's lucky it's just a scratch.
00:47:18It's a bullet that barely grazed his arm.
00:47:20Thank goodness.
00:47:24I'm more worried about Rachel.
00:47:26It's all my fault.
00:47:28What are you talking about?
00:47:30I convinced Rachel to put some distance between you two.
00:47:33I thought it would be better if you weren't involved with the single mom.
00:47:35I didn't realize it would lead to something like this.
00:47:38You did what?
00:47:40I'm sorry.
00:47:42I know I'm wrong.
00:47:43I realize that now.
00:47:45I just hope it's not too late to fix things.
00:47:48Leslie, I appreciate everything you've done for my career.
00:47:53But Rachel is important to me.
00:47:55You had no right to interfere in my personal life.
00:47:57I didn't want anything to jeopardize your career.
00:48:01If you need help smoothing things over, I'm here.
00:48:05I should fix things.
00:48:18Can I talk?
00:48:27Leslie told me about everything.
00:48:29I'm so stupid.
00:48:31I should have never let something like that come between us.
00:48:34I'm just trying to do what I thought was best for him.
00:48:37Having you in my life is what's best for me.
00:48:42I care about you, Austin.
00:48:44I always have.
00:48:47What about that guy I saw in your house?
00:48:50Nate?
00:48:52He was just a neighbor that was helping me.
00:48:55He did ask me out, though.
00:48:57What?
00:48:58Don't worry. I turned him down.
00:49:01Let's give this a real shot.
00:49:03No more pretending.
00:49:07I'd love that.
00:49:09Austin, are you dating Rachel Herman?
00:49:13Let's do this.
00:49:15Is she your girlfriend, Austin?
00:49:17Yes. Rachel is my girlfriend.
00:49:22What about your career risk?
00:49:24These words are all the risks.
00:49:26And Austin's not just a celebrity to me.
00:49:30He makes me truly happy.
00:49:37Look at her, acting all fucking high and mighty with that Hollywood hotshot, Austin Cooper.
00:49:44You know, Damien, this could work in our favor.
00:49:48Yeah, how do you figure that?
00:49:50Rachel hit the jackpot.
00:49:52She's with a rich Hollywood star now.
00:49:54If we play our cards right, we could squeeze some money out of her.
00:50:00You know, you might be onto something.
00:50:02She owes us anyway, especially after what that Austin Cooper did to me last time humiliated me.
00:50:07Exactly.
00:50:09Let's show her she can't just leave us behind and expect to live her fairytale life.
00:50:15Let's make her pay.
00:50:30I'll get it, Mom.
00:50:35Dad?
00:50:36Cece, long time no see.
00:50:38Hello, little girl.
00:50:44Damien, what are you doing here?
00:50:46You're just in the neighborhood. I thought I'd stop by, see how you two are doing.
00:50:49Catch the chase.
00:50:51Why are you really here?
00:50:53Well, now that you're mingling with Hollywood's elite, I figured you could help your dear ex-husband out.
00:50:58Help you?
00:51:00You mean you want money.
00:51:03I mean, come on, Rachel. You owe me after everything I've done for you.
00:51:06You've done nothing for us, Dad. Mom's always been the one that's been there.
00:51:11Cece, Dad's been busy. You know that.
00:51:14Busy making excuses. They're never around when we need you.
00:51:18You heard her, Damien. We don't need you.
00:51:21This is far from over, Rachel.
00:51:23You'll regret this.
00:51:29Bye-bye.
00:51:40You did amazing, Cece.
00:51:42I learned from the best.
00:51:53Do you think she can just dismiss us like that?
00:51:56You know, she obviously forgot who she's dealing with, but she'll remember soon enough.
00:52:02What if we sell some juicy stories about Rachel?
00:52:05Tabloids bleed up anything about Austin Cooper's girlfriend.
00:52:09What are you saying? Make some serious cash and slander her reputation at the same time?
00:52:14Exactly. You're her ex-husband.
00:52:17Surely you can make up some shit and people would still believe you.
00:52:22Let's call the tabloids.
00:52:27Hey, Leslie. What's up?
00:52:29Austin, we have a situation.
00:52:31What kind of situation?
00:52:33I just got a call from a contact at one of the tabloids. Damien is trying to sell fake dirt on Rachel.
00:52:40What a bastard. What did he say?
00:52:42Luckily, they turned him down. They knew it was bogus.
00:52:45Just thought you should know that this could get messy if someone takes the bait.
00:52:49What a piece of shit. He's just messing with Rachel because she stood him up.
00:52:54I know, but you need to be careful. He's playing dirty and he's not going to stop.
00:52:59Thanks, Leslie. I'll make sure he regrets messing with her.
00:53:05You don't know who you've messed with, Damien.
00:53:11Ben, you said you've hired a private investigator before.
00:53:17Got the report you wanted? You won't believe what that guy's been up to.
00:53:22Let's hear what you got.
00:53:24Damien's a real piece of work. He's been involved in all kinds of shady stuff.
00:53:27Embezzlement, corruption. He's even been seen sleeping with business associates for business contacts.
00:53:33I knew this guy was a scumbag, but this is next level.
00:53:36It's pretty damning. If it gets out, he's ruined.
00:53:39I can't believe Rachel ever had to deal with this guy.
00:53:42You think you'll use it against him?
00:53:48Did you hear back from any of the tabloids yet?
00:53:50No, not yet. Those idiots didn't take the bait, but I'll find someone who will.
00:53:56Keep trying. We'll get what we're after eventually.
00:54:00Always do, babe.
00:54:01Oh.
00:54:05Oh.
00:54:16Oh my god! Austin, I'm a huge fan.
00:54:24Ben, Sean, I love your new role in that Atla TV series. You are amazing.
00:54:31What are you doing here, Cooper?
00:54:33We found out about your little scheme to sell fake stories about Rachel.
00:54:38So?
00:54:39There's absolutely nothing that you or your friend can do about it.
00:54:47Take a look inside. It's quite the collection of your extracurricular activities.
00:54:54I don't want to hurt Rachel by airing out your dirty laundry,
00:54:58but if you try to mess with her or me again, I'll have no choice.
00:55:05What are these?
00:55:06Just Damien sleeping with some business associates.
00:55:10You've been cheating on me?
00:55:11Come on, he cheated on his ex-wife with you. You think she's going to stop there?
00:55:16You filthy bastard!
00:55:18Are you serious, Caroline?
00:55:20You filthy bastard!
00:55:22Are you serious, Caroline?
00:55:27You filthy bastard!
00:55:29Are you serious, Caroline?
00:55:32I told you, a man who hits a woman is no man.
00:55:44Well, aren't you guys the knights in shining armor?
00:55:47How about we ditch this loser and go have some fun?
00:55:51Sorry, I'm not really into homewreckers.
00:55:54Fine, I don't need you either.
00:55:56Get out, Damien. I'm done with you and your lies.
00:56:01Come on, Caroline.
00:56:02I said get out!
00:56:12You're all going to pay for this.
00:56:21Excuse me, could I get a dirty martini, please?
00:56:28Well, if it isn't the man of the hour.
00:56:32I heard you're desperate, homeless, and a complete wreck.
00:56:38Amanda Scott?
00:56:40What are you doing here?
00:56:41Did you just come to kick me while I'm down?
00:56:44Actually, I'm here to talk to you.
00:56:48Actually, you have something I want.
00:56:56And what would a Hollywood A-lister like you possibly want from a guy like me?
00:57:02Unless maybe you want to go back to your place and, uh...
00:57:05Ew, you wish!
00:57:09I will pay you handsomely to abduct Rachel and hurt her.
00:57:17I will pay you handsomely to abduct Rachel and hurt her.
00:57:23You can even demand a ransom from Austin and get twice the money.
00:57:27Then you can go anywhere in the world with that kind of cash.
00:57:32So you're telling me I don't have to pay alimony to that bitch anymore?
00:57:36Exactly. Two birds with stone.
00:57:40Aw, man. But you better hold up your end of the bargain.
00:57:43Don't worry, Damien. Just don't screw it up.
00:57:45Cecilia's in summer camp. Rachel's home alone.
00:57:50I know what to do.
00:57:54What are you getting out of this, anyway?
00:57:57Austin, of course.
00:58:15You're welcome.
00:58:39Did you miss me?
00:58:41Damien, what are you doing here?
00:58:43You've forgiven me what I wanted.
00:58:45Let me out.
00:58:58Help.
00:59:00Help! Somebody help me!
00:59:04Thank God you're finally awake. I was starting to get bored.
00:59:09Damien, let me go.
00:59:11Let me go.
00:59:14Do you really still think you have the upper hand?
00:59:17I think it's time we make a phone call.
00:59:26Rachel?
00:59:28Oh, this isn't Rachel, but I have her.
00:59:33Rachel?
00:59:35Oh, this isn't Rachel, but I have her.
00:59:37And you're going to pay me exactly what I'm looking for if you ever want to see her again.
00:59:42Let her go.
00:59:44Austin, don't listen to him! Please call the police!
00:59:46Shut up!
00:59:48Damien, if you touch her again, you will regret it.
00:59:54Oh, Austin. You're going to get me exactly what I'm asking for if you ever want to see her again.
01:00:01You have 30 minutes. Make a decision.
01:00:08Ben, what do you got?
01:00:10The private investigator came through. We've got the location.
01:00:13It's that old warehouse on the outskirts of town.
01:00:15I'm on my way.
01:00:23It's all set. The cops will be here soon. I'm going to move fast.
01:00:26Let's do it.
01:00:29Austin!
01:00:30Rachel!
01:00:31How'd you find us?
01:00:33I don't know.
01:00:34Rachel.
01:00:35How'd you find us?
01:00:39You're done, Damien. That's it.
01:00:59Rachel.
01:01:05Austin.
01:01:19She's probably dehydrated. We need to take a look at her. She needs to get to the hospital.
01:01:27I'm so sorry, Rachel. I should have protected you better.
01:01:32This is all my fault.
01:01:34Austin, don't blame yourself. You saved me. That's all that matters.
01:01:40I promise I will protect you for the rest of my life. You and Cecilia.
01:01:47I know you will.
01:01:52I love you.
01:01:54I love you too.
01:01:58Thank you for being here with us.
01:02:02Mom!
01:02:03Hi, honey.
01:02:05I was so worried.
01:02:06Oh, don't worry. There's nothing to be worried about. Everything's okay.
01:02:11Is Dad a bad guy?
01:02:16Is Dad a bad guy?
01:02:20No, Dad's not a bad guy.
01:02:25Sometimes people can make bad decisions when they're lost and unsure of what to do with their lives.
01:02:34Cecilia, let's go get some ice cream. Your mom could use some rest.
01:02:39Yes, please.
01:02:41Bye.
01:03:03I love you.
01:03:05I love you too.
