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