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