00:00:03And the award for Best Youth Actor goes to...
00:00:07Lexington Hall!
00:00:20Ever since my first film of the age of three, I've drafted this day.
00:00:23The day that I finally turned 18.
00:00:26And so to my sweet mother here in the crowd.
00:00:28And to Hollywood and everyone watching at home.
00:00:32I have just one thing to say to all of you.
00:00:36Fuck you!
00:00:44At the camera!
00:00:46Fuck all of you!
00:00:48Watch this disgusting industry!
00:00:50I'm never acting again!
00:00:58What a spoiled Hollywood ass can.
00:01:06Dad, I've got the school play audition. I gotta go.
00:01:09Oh, uh, break your legs, honey.
00:01:11It's break a leg, but thank you.
00:01:20Oh my god, I can't believe we're gonna be classmates with the, like, Paul, the hottest guy from Hollywood.
00:01:26Oh my god, I could literally die.
00:01:28Do you think you'll sign my boo?
00:01:31Oh my god, here he is!
00:01:33Oh my god!
00:02:18My hair is stuck, on his clutch?
00:02:20Oh
00:02:23No, no, I can't let the whole school see me like this
00:02:30Hey, we really don't have time for this right now
00:02:33Okay
00:02:51Oh
00:02:52Seriously
00:02:58You having a good time down there?
00:03:00My hair is stuck
00:03:03Okay, okay, I'd stop if I were you then
00:03:06For something else
00:03:09Is he hard?
00:03:19I'm lying
00:03:25Car
00:03:29You better be kidding me
00:03:30Are you serious?
00:03:32You know I've had some fans pull some pretty crazy stunts before but
00:03:36This?
00:03:37Pretty original
00:03:38I am not one of your crazy fangirls
00:03:41You jumped into my car
00:03:43You destroyed my truck
00:03:44And destroyed my only nice shirt for the audition
00:03:46Yeah
00:03:48That's
00:03:50Unfortunate
00:03:55Fine
00:03:56Here
00:03:59Here
00:04:00That'll cover the shirt and whatever it costs to fix
00:04:03This thing
00:04:05I don't want your stupid autographs
00:04:07I don't want your stupid autographs
00:04:08You know you're exactly what I imagine you'd be like
00:04:10A spoiled Hollywood asshole
00:04:13Now leave me alone
00:04:21Spoiled Hollywood asshole
00:04:22Huh
00:04:26That's a strong opinion for a theater nerd
00:04:36Stevie St. James?
00:04:37I mean come on you doing Fright and Prejudice?
00:04:40Boring
00:04:41You know what?
00:04:43Sometimes boring is the only way for normal people to achieve their dreams
00:04:46Yeah?
00:04:48I'm gonna act in Hollywood too one day
00:04:50So you're not missing out on much toots
00:04:52That's not what you think it is
00:04:53You know what? You can save your jaded broken bad boy act
00:04:56For someone who actually cares
00:04:58Acting is my dream
00:05:01And I promised someone I would never give up on that dream
00:05:06Not that someone like you would ever understand
00:05:09Now if you'll excuse me I have an audition
00:05:11And I'm gonna be late
00:05:17I can close my own door
00:05:19Like so
00:05:25Audition huh?
00:05:28I don't know why you had to audition Natalie
00:05:30You were made for the lead role
00:05:32Yeah you've been like the theater queen since freshman year
00:05:36Girls
00:05:36This is the last year
00:05:38And it's gonna be the best year
00:05:41Well
00:05:41Since Stevie
00:05:43Is a no-show
00:05:44This concludes our auditions for this year's school play
00:05:49Wait
00:05:50Wait
00:05:50I'm here
00:05:52I'm here
00:06:04Alright farm girl, let's see what you got
00:06:08Alrighty Stevie, you made it
00:06:10You can start
00:06:11You can start whenever you're ready
00:06:13Mr. Darcy
00:06:15From the moment that I met you
00:06:17Your manners told me that you are arrogant, selfish, and conceited
00:06:22She's
00:06:23Not bad
00:06:25So my answer is no
00:06:27You're the last man in the world who
00:06:30Wait
00:06:31Where's my partner Jameson?
00:06:35He's supposed to come in here
00:06:36He's supposed to come in here
00:06:37Oh no, Stevie
00:06:38Did your acting partner ditch you?
00:06:41I don't blame him
00:06:42This is a train wreck
00:06:43Yeah, my desk plant has better acting skills
00:06:46Oh no
00:06:49I don't win
00:06:50Oh no
00:06:51That's aPA
00:06:55It went for so long
00:06:58Shane
00:06:59where are you?
00:07:01ha ha
00:07:02Ha ha ha
00:07:04What
00:07:12What?
00:07:26Lex Hull.
00:07:27Did the biggest Hollywood star just save me?
00:07:30You're the only one.
00:07:31Right.
00:07:42Wait, this is my first kiss.
00:07:46He did a stage kiss?
00:07:48Shit, is that Lex fucking Hall?
00:07:51He's the hottest star in Hollywood and he wants to be in the school play? With Stevie?
00:07:56I thought Lex quit acting. Why is he doing this for a poor farm girl?
00:08:00Allow me to speak but a few words.
00:08:03My dearest and loveliest Elizabeth.
00:08:07Lex, what are you doing here?
00:08:09You don't even know the lines.
00:08:11I heard them earlier.
00:08:17He memorized that entire monologue in three seconds?
00:08:21No.
00:08:23Well, I leave.
00:08:27I've been a selfish man all my life.
00:08:29Such it was from eight to eighteen and such it still might be.
00:08:32If not for you, the Elizabeth.
00:08:35By you I was properly humbled.
00:08:38And if your feelings for me are still what they were the last we spoke, tell me at once.
00:08:42But otherwise, will you do me the greatest pleasure of having him?
00:08:58Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!
00:09:03Beautiful chemistry. The lead roles are yours provided both of you agree to do the play.
00:09:09Yes! Yes, thank you, Mr. Hamlin. We won't let you down.
00:09:15Alrighty. Now the auditions are over.
00:09:20But Mr. Hamlin!
00:09:23This isn't over, you slimy barn snake.
00:09:27That lead role is mine. And so is Lex. Let's go.
00:09:38Well, that was fun. Good luck.
00:09:41Wait, you're leaving?
00:09:45Look, I left Hollywood to get away from all of this.
00:09:48Not to get chased around by a bunch of horny theater nerds in an amateur play.
00:09:52Okay, but Mr. Hamlin only wants us as a duo.
00:09:55Tough luck! Maybe next time.
00:09:58There won't be a next time, Lex!
00:10:02Not for someone like me.
00:10:05Look, my grandma taught me how to act, okay?
00:10:08And I promised her that one day I would be the lead in this cool play so she could see
00:10:11me on stage.
00:10:14She, uh, she never got the chance to.
00:10:19So just for once, I want to know what it feels like to really act.
00:10:30All right.
00:10:32Stevie St. James, let's say I do agree to act with you.
00:10:41What do I get out of it?
00:10:50I have a spare bedroom.
00:10:53What?
00:10:54Um, you're staying at the Plaza Hotel, right?
00:10:59I saw how crazy your fans are.
00:11:01They'll chew you up when you get back there.
00:11:03So you want me to leave my five-star hotel and come live on a farm with you?
00:11:07Well, that's what you wanted, right?
00:11:11Mister, I just want a normal life.
00:11:19Okay, fuck it.
00:11:22You got yourself a deal, farm girl.
00:11:26So you're at the farm.
00:11:32Yes!
00:11:33Mmm, yes!
00:11:46You weren't kidding me since I was a bit of a fixer-upper.
00:11:49Oh, I'm sorry.
00:11:49Is this farm too normal for you, Lexall?
00:11:52The hottest Hollywood star in the world.
00:11:54Did you just call me hot, St. James?
00:11:57What?
00:11:59No!
00:11:59In your dreams.
00:12:01You know, you are irritatingly full of yourself.
00:12:04I prefer the word confident.
00:12:08Speaking of.
00:12:11You want to act in Hollywood, St. James?
00:12:17You've got to stop blushing every time a guy gets close to you.
00:12:21Oh.
00:12:27Stevie, honey!
00:12:29Mom! Dad!
00:12:30Um, this is my friend that I said was going to be staying with us.
00:12:34I'm Lex.
00:12:35I'm sorry.
00:12:36I don't mean to intrude.
00:12:37Oh, Stevie's friends are always welcome here!
00:12:41So, she told us that you're her acting partner.
00:12:45And with such a talented actor's help, our baby girl's going to be a star.
00:12:50Oh, Dad! Stop!
00:12:52Okay, kids.
00:12:53Dinner's almost ready.
00:12:54Why don't you show Lex's room?
00:12:56Great idea.
00:12:57Hey, I hope you like venison.
00:13:01Wow.
00:13:02That was embarrassing.
00:13:04No, it was cute.
00:13:06Do you tell how much they care?
00:13:08Not everyone has that.
00:13:12Anyways.
00:13:14I'm gonna go find out what venison is.
00:13:17Uh, that's not a good idea, Lex.
00:13:18I don't, I don't think you really want to know!
00:13:20What's your dad's cooking?
00:13:28Lex Hall's an asshole.
00:13:29But why do I find him so hot?
00:13:31Will you do me the greatest pleasure?
00:13:33Of having you.
00:13:39Stop it, Stevie.
00:13:41He's literally a Hollywood actor.
00:13:43He's just acting.
00:13:45I need to stop thinking about him.
00:13:47He's a star.
00:13:48And you're just you.
00:13:50Do you always talk to the cows when you milk them?
00:13:57Well, good morning to you, too.
00:13:59Oh, my God!
00:14:06Oh!
00:14:13Well, that is just...
00:14:16Don't!
00:14:16Say another word.
00:14:18What are you doing in my barn naked?
00:14:20Well, I was trying to take a shower.
00:14:21And then the thing broke.
00:14:24But as my generous hostess,
00:14:26I assume you can fix it for me.
00:14:40What are you doing, St. James?
00:14:42Uh, definitely not what you think I'm doing.
00:14:45More pipes in there.
00:14:51You sure you know how to fix this?
00:14:53Uh-huh.
00:14:53Newsflash, your highness.
00:14:54Real people like me actually grew up learning real life skills
00:14:57while you were busy having tea and cake with celebrities.
00:15:00You seem to think movie stars' lives are all fun and games.
00:15:02Oh, yeah.
00:15:04Because all the fans that love you,
00:15:06and the galas,
00:15:07and the traveling around the world.
00:15:08It's so horrible.
00:15:11You sure you don't want any help?
00:15:12No, you've done enough.
00:15:14The last thing I need is your help.
00:15:19Shit!
00:15:20I can't actually be stuck like this,
00:15:22with my ass pointed at...
00:15:26You've got a real talent for getting yourself...
00:15:28in compromising positions.
00:15:32Don't you, farm girl?
00:15:36Lex, I'm gonna suck, okay?
00:15:38Just pull me out.
00:15:40Oh?
00:15:42I thought you didn't want my help.
00:15:44Lex, this isn't funny, okay?
00:15:45Help me.
00:15:51Stay, honey?
00:15:52Are you in the barn?
00:15:56Yeah, mom, I'm just...
00:15:59Oh!
00:16:03I'm fixing the water pipe.
00:16:06Okay, do you want some help?
00:16:08No!
00:16:09I'm about to be done.
00:16:10Okay.
00:16:11Breakfast is ready.
00:16:13Okay, I'm coming.
00:16:24Hey.
00:16:31Where is this stupid wrench?
00:16:33Oh!
00:16:36That's not a wrench.
00:16:38What?
00:16:43I am so sorry!
00:16:48It's okay.
00:16:55Okay, I'm gonna go dig a hole...
00:16:58Hold up.
00:17:02So what does me an apology?
00:17:05Miss...
00:17:06Real-life skills?
00:17:08You know, I'm starting to think
00:17:10you only brought me on this farm to screw with me.
00:17:12St. James?
00:17:19Lexington!
00:17:21Oh, God!
00:17:22What's my mom doing back?
00:17:23Lexington?
00:17:24No.
00:17:26That's my mom.
00:17:33Lexington?
00:17:33Did you think you could run away without me knowing?
00:17:37Lexington!
00:17:38Oh!
00:17:39What are you doing in a...
00:17:41Oh, God!
00:17:41Barn like this?
00:17:43And...
00:17:43Without a shirt?
00:17:44I've decided to spend some time on a farm.
00:17:46Mom, you didn't have to break an enter.
00:17:48Well, apparently I did have to, Lexington.
00:17:51Your reputation is in the gutter,
00:17:53and now I find you living on some dirty farm.
00:17:55You don't belong here, Lex,
00:17:57or with whatever redneck lives here.
00:18:04Is there someone in there with you?
00:18:07Lexington?
00:18:08That's it!
00:18:08I'm coming in now!
00:18:18Mom, I'm naked, and I'm hard.
00:18:23Lexington, you put that towel on right now.
00:18:26No.
00:18:27Not until you get in your car and you drive away.
00:18:29I'm not a kid anymore, and I've told you,
00:18:32I'm quitting Hollywood.
00:18:33You are not quitting.
00:18:36You're just having a temper tantrum.
00:18:37Well, I know you.
00:18:39I'm your mother and your agent,
00:18:41and in fact,
00:18:43I might remind you that all of these contracts
00:18:46bear your signature.
00:18:48So if you don't come back to L.A.,
00:18:50you're going to court.
00:18:53Can you just stop hurting my life for two seconds,
00:18:56and let me be free for once?
00:18:58You know, freedom is a luxury
00:19:00that a movie star like you doesn't get to have.
00:19:03And so is a scandal,
00:19:04so I better not catch you getting into any trouble.
00:19:07And if I find out that you were messing around
00:19:09with some gold-digging farm girl,
00:19:12not only will I ruin your life,
00:19:14I'll ruin hers!
00:19:24Okay, you can turn around now.
00:19:28Sorry.
00:19:34Bad day, huh?
00:19:37Good days, bad days.
00:19:40Harold's days.
00:19:41All the endless bullshit in between.
00:19:46Surprised you paid for me in the perfect club's hall.
00:19:49You're really not, you know?
00:19:51Perfect.
00:19:52I mean, first of all, you are majorly entitled.
00:19:56You're cocky, incredibly reckless.
00:19:58You think?
00:20:00For the pep talk.
00:20:01But it doesn't make you bad.
00:20:05It just makes you normal.
00:20:18You know there are copies of that, right?
00:20:21It's okay to want things.
00:20:23To forget what your mom wants,
00:20:24and what the fans want.
00:20:27It's hard to explain,
00:20:29but somehow when I'm only with her,
00:20:31it doesn't feel so bad
00:20:32to be just like Saul.
00:20:36What do you want, Lexal?
00:20:39What do I want?
00:20:53And if I find out that you are messing around
00:20:56with some gold-digging farm girl,
00:20:58not only will I ruin your life,
00:21:00I'll ruin hers!
00:21:05What am I thinking?
00:21:06She's a nice girl with a loving family.
00:21:09I can't drag her into my mess.
00:21:11I don't know what I want.
00:21:13Frankly, I don't think anyone cares.
00:21:17Now, if you'll excuse me,
00:21:19I'll breathe, though, shower.
00:21:21Don't know.
00:21:25Rehearsal's at four.
00:21:27I'll see you there?
00:21:29What did you expect, Stevie?
00:21:31You've known him for one day,
00:21:32and you thought you were besties?
00:21:34Starting now,
00:21:35you and Lexal are just acting partners.
00:21:37Nothing more.
00:21:41Would Lexal have feelings for a farm girl like me?
00:21:44Shh.
00:21:48Stop dreaming, Stevie.
00:21:49He's literally the biggest star on the planet.
00:21:54Hey, those are my clothes!
00:21:56Oh, don't worry, Stevie.
00:21:57We're leaving you something fabulous to wear for rehearsal.
00:22:01Hey, stop!
00:22:02Oh, God!
00:22:04No frickin' way.
00:22:06Wait.
00:22:06What does this happen?
00:22:08Come on.
00:22:11What?
00:22:14Everyone, welcome our prima donna.
00:22:20Natalie, give me my clothes back.
00:22:22You're lucky I didn't make you come out here butt-naked, bitch.
00:22:25You stole my role and my chance to act with Lex.
00:22:28Speaking of which, where is Lex?
00:22:31Oh, my God, don't tell me you got stood up by two acting partners in a row, Stevie.
00:22:36I bet he bailed on her and high-tailed it out of here.
00:22:39I would if I had to kiss a dirty farm hand and pretend I liked it.
00:22:43No.
00:22:44Lex promised he'd do the show with me.
00:22:46Was he lying all along?
00:22:48No, Lex is just running late.
00:22:49He's gonna be here.
00:22:50Like hell he will.
00:22:51Lex is the hottest thing in Hollywood.
00:22:54He doesn't actually want to act with some talentless hillbilly like you.
00:22:56A hillbilly who got cast as the lead?
00:22:59You didn't even get a part.
00:23:01Unless they added jealous bitch to the cast.
00:23:07Well, I guess that costume wasn't enough to put you in your place, you smelly farm girl.
00:23:12Go.
00:23:17Get off!
00:23:18Stop!
00:23:18What are you doing?
00:23:20Don't push me, please.
00:23:22Oh, cute.
00:23:26You think you're hot shit?
00:23:29You only got that role because of Lex.
00:23:36Without him, you're a clown.
00:23:39A charity case.
00:23:42And I think it's about time you get off the stage and let the real actors do their thing.
00:23:48Natalie, let go of me!
00:23:50Oh, okay.
00:23:51Break a leg.
00:23:55Stevie!
00:23:58Stevie.
00:24:03Stevie.
00:24:08We're here.
00:24:11What the fuck?
00:24:13Were you trying to kill her?
00:24:16Well, it's really cute that you're pretending to care about your partner and all, but you don't have to pretend
00:24:21when you're off stage.
00:24:23We all know that she's not good enough for you.
00:24:28Full offense, Natalie, but I don't fuck with spoiled divas.
00:24:32I would have stayed in Hollywood if I did.
00:24:35Now me and my partner are gonna go get cleaned up.
00:24:38You'll better be gone by the time I get back.
00:24:46This isn't over, you pathetic nerd.
00:24:48I'll get this role.
00:24:50And I will get Lex.
00:24:52Just watch.
00:24:54I don't know who those grubs stick they are.
00:24:57You really gotta learn how to stick out for yourself, St. James.
00:25:00Says the Hollywood star who's had an entire army of lawyers and agents fighting his battles for him since he
00:25:05was five years old.
00:25:08Lex, you were late this morning.
00:25:10You hung me out to dry, and now you're gonna stand there and lecture me about how I should stand
00:25:14up for myself?
00:25:15Look, I'm just saying.
00:25:16No, Lex, you don't get to just say anything!
00:25:20You shut me out this morning like we were strangers, so don't stand there and act like you care now.
00:25:28You really think I'm just acting?
00:25:34Yeah, Lex.
00:25:36You're just acting.
00:25:38And you're a great actor, I'll give you that.
00:25:41I was there.
00:25:43I heard your mother.
00:25:44Now I find you living on some dirty farm.
00:25:47You don't belong here, Lex.
00:25:49Or with whatever redneck lives here.
00:25:54You're Lex Hall.
00:25:56The Hollywood prodigy, and...
00:25:58I'm just me.
00:26:02So, I think that you should go back to your five-star hotel.
00:26:07We'll be partners in this play, nothing else.
00:26:09You don't have to be my friend.
00:26:11You don't even have to say hi to me in the hallway.
00:26:15Is that what you really want?
00:26:17Frankly, I don't think anyone cares.
00:26:21Certainly not you, Lex Hall.
00:26:31He's the biggest movie star in the world, and you're just a small-town girl.
00:26:35You're not special to him, and you never will be.
00:26:37Wake up, Stevie.
00:26:42Hey, Lex.
00:26:43I'm having a party tonight.
00:26:45You should come hang out.
00:26:47Hold you, Natalie. I'm not...
00:26:53Actually...
00:26:53That sounds fun, Natalie.
00:26:56I mean...
00:26:57Amazing. We're gonna have so much fun.
00:26:59We're gonna have so much fun.
00:27:06I see what you're trying to do, Lex.
00:27:08Oh, yeah?
00:27:13Enlighten me, St. James.
00:27:17What am I doing?
00:27:20Trying to push my buttons by hanging out with my bully.
00:27:22Oh, look who's self-centered now.
00:27:25Lex, you can't go to her party, okay?
00:27:28What if you get in trouble?
00:27:30Your mom and your agent will...
00:27:31Ruined my life?
00:27:33Yeah, I never heard that one before.
00:27:35I'll still be at rehearsal.
00:27:36That's all you care about, right?
00:27:41Acting partner.
00:27:48God, Stevie.
00:27:49Why do you care about him so much?
00:27:54Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!
00:27:58Forget what your mom wants and what the fans want.
00:28:03What do you want, Lexo?
00:28:05What I want.
00:28:09There he is.
00:28:11You want something a little stronger, Mr. Movie Star?
00:28:16Sure, why not?
00:28:18Anything that can take my mind off Stevie
00:28:21I'm down
00:28:33Lex?
00:28:34If Lex gets in trouble and his mom finds out
00:28:37I'll lose him forever
00:28:43Okay
00:28:44Lex, I dare you
00:28:46I think it's about time I bounce
00:28:49I know, I know, it was great seeing me
00:28:51It was great seeing you
00:28:52I'll see you all at school tomorrow, yeah?
00:28:55But what about my dare? It was gonna be so fun
00:28:58What's the matter with him?
00:28:59I heard Lex was staying at Stevie St. James' family farm
00:29:03What if they're...
00:29:05Lex, are you out here?
00:29:08Stevie
00:29:09Just the girl I wanted to see
00:29:13Lex is gone
00:29:14But you can take his place
00:29:15Which means it's your dare
00:29:17So I dare you
00:29:18To give a single guy at this party a lap dance
00:29:34Natalie, I don't want to do that
00:29:36I thought you wanted to be a Hollywood actor
00:29:39You're never gonna get anywhere with a prudish attitude like that
00:29:42I came here for Lex
00:29:44Where is he?
00:29:51Wait
00:29:52That's Stevie's truck
00:30:01And take off that sweatshirt
00:30:03Don't be shy
00:30:05You do know that lap dances come with stripping, right?
00:30:08Natalie, stop!
00:30:10Guys, stop!
00:30:12Are you serious?
00:30:15I feel like the point point
00:30:17It's like a foreign bra
00:30:20Oh, where'd you get your bra?
00:30:22Woodwill or Walmart?
00:30:23Yeah, it looks like something out of my grandma's laundry
00:30:25Now, now, girls
00:30:26Everyone has their personal style
00:30:28We shouldn't judge
00:30:29And in fact
00:30:30I think I have something perfect for Stevie
00:30:33Natalie, please stop!
00:30:35Don't...
00:30:36Oh...
00:30:39Oh...
00:30:39Oh...
00:30:40Oh...
00:30:40Aren't you being the prettiest belle at the ball?
00:30:43Oh...
00:30:44Girls
00:30:46We're all part of the farm
00:30:48Oh...
00:30:51Oh, look, I'm Stevie
00:30:53I'm a tacky farm girl
00:30:55I melt cows
00:30:56And shovel horseshit
00:30:59You think you're a good enough actress
00:31:01To be with the star Lex Hall?
00:31:03Well, consider this an acting exercise
00:31:06No, stop!
00:31:08Oh, you got it!
00:31:10Love dance, love dance
00:31:12Love dance, love dance
00:31:14Love dance, love dance, love dance
00:31:17Steve again to character
00:31:18Love dance, love dance, love dance
00:31:24Love dance
00:31:25Love dance
00:31:32Foggy, let her go!
00:31:38Foggy, let her go!
00:31:41Now!
00:31:47Lex, you're not seriously siding with some disgusting farm girl, are you?
00:31:52I know you're used to walking all over people, Natalie, with your money and your power.
00:31:57But I have money and power too, and I didn't get it from Daddy's credit card.
00:32:04You two delete everything.
00:32:06If a single photo gets out, then I'm sending lawyers to your door.
00:32:10You don't mean that.
00:32:11Yeah, we were just having fun.
00:32:12You were playing with fire.
00:32:14And now I'm here, and you're getting burnt.
00:32:20You come at Stevie again, and let's see what happens, Natalie.
00:32:24This might have been your school, but now it's my town.
00:32:36Lex, what were you thinking?
00:32:38Drinking and playing those stupid games with those people?
00:32:40It got me into this mess.
00:32:43I don't know.
00:32:44I saved you from it, didn't I?
00:32:48Besides, I think the real question here is why did you drive all the way out here to save me?
00:33:05Because I didn't want you to get into trouble.
00:33:08Oh, and why is that?
00:33:10It was only five hours ago you were saying we weren't even friends.
00:33:13Because I didn't want you to leave.
00:33:15Shit, I said too much.
00:33:16He's going to think I'm delusional.
00:33:18That I have feelings for him.
00:33:21Well, because we're friends.
00:33:25Because you're my acting partner.
00:33:28And because I don't want your mom dragging you back to L.A. for underage drinking.
00:33:33Of course.
00:33:34She's just protecting herself.
00:33:36And you.
00:33:37This is for the best, and you know it.
00:33:40Fine.
00:33:41I will stay out of trouble while I do your boring-ass play, St. James.
00:33:47Only under one condition.
00:33:51We stay friends.
00:33:53Because I don't lend my $20,000 jacket.
00:33:55Just anyone.
00:33:59Deal.
00:34:01Friends.
00:34:05Try me home.
00:34:09Wait.
00:34:12Thank you for saving me back there.
00:34:14As I'm not entirely a pampered Hollywood-ass, am I?
00:34:18A little bit.
00:34:20Whatever.
00:34:27It's been days since the party.
00:34:29Since I almost told Lex how I felt.
00:34:30Like a huge loser.
00:34:32And thank God I did it.
00:34:34So why did you drive all the way out here to save me?
00:34:38Because I don't want you to leave.
00:34:40Because we're good now.
00:34:41Friends.
00:34:42All we are, and all we'll ever be.
00:34:44And I'm okay with it.
00:34:46So, okay.
00:34:49Sup, theater nerd.
00:34:50You wanna go see a movie or something tonight?
00:34:52I thought you were hanging out with some of the football guys later.
00:34:55Nah.
00:34:56Nah, you're more fun.
00:34:59Yeah.
00:35:00I'll go get my truck.
00:35:02By the way, some guys might feel it's a bit emasculating being driven everywhere by a woman.
00:35:07That's sexist.
00:35:09Plus, I would drive if you just-
00:35:11Actually, you know what?
00:35:12I do prefer to live, Mr. Movie Star.
00:35:15Oh, but I got you.
00:35:23Who the hell is that, son?
00:35:25Mom?
00:35:25What?
00:35:28What are you doing here?
00:35:30What are you doing here?
00:35:31I asked you a question, and I'm not going to stop until I get an answer.
00:35:37Shit.
00:35:38My car key's in my locker.
00:35:40Who the hell is that girl, Lexington?
00:35:46She's nobody.
00:35:47I've been in the stupid school play with her, so she just drives me around and stuff.
00:35:51That better be the truth.
00:35:53You know, this town, this school, it's all just temporary.
00:35:57We can lay low until all of this I quit Hollywood nonsense blows over, and then we are going back.
00:36:04Last I checked, Mom, quitting means not going, so I-
00:36:08Lexington Hall, you have a job, you have duties, and commitments to fulfill.
00:36:14You are not letting that go.
00:36:20Joe Collins is hosting a party at his hotel for all the young talent in the country.
00:36:25You will be there, or I will transfer you out of this school so fast, you don't have time to
00:36:31clear out this locker.
00:36:40Good boy.
00:36:42Don't be late.
00:36:43Don't bring your little friend.
00:36:45It's not her scene, and you know it.
00:36:51Just what I expected.
00:36:53He just couldn't shake the Hollywood ego.
00:37:00Stevie!
00:37:01Stevie, wait!
00:37:02Lex, don't!
00:37:04Do whatever you want, but don't lie to me.
00:37:06No, it's not what it looks like, okay?
00:37:08We'll be friends.
00:37:09Where'd you get that line from?
00:37:10One of your blockbuster movies?
00:37:12We are friends.
00:37:13No, Lex!
00:37:13We are not friends!
00:37:15And we never will be.
00:37:17Not when you and everyone from your world thinks that I'm just some stupid farm girl with a stupid Hollywood
00:37:21dream.
00:37:23Lex, don't follow me!
00:37:25I'm done.
00:37:27You could find another nobody to give you a ride and stuff.
00:37:44Okay.
00:37:45Okay.
00:37:45Stevie, I'm sorry.
00:37:47You're the only person to see me for who I am.
00:37:49And I want to be friend.
00:38:00Lex, we are not friends!
00:38:02And we never will be.
00:38:04Not when you and everyone from your world thinks that I'm just some stupid farm girl with a stupid Hollywood
00:38:09dream.
00:38:10I need to show Stevie my world.
00:38:12And that I'm different.
00:38:14That we can be different.
00:38:21Is this Stevie St. James?
00:38:23Yes, this is her.
00:38:24Your friend Lex Hall got into a car accident.
00:38:26What?
00:38:38Lex!
00:38:42Oh my God, Lex!
00:38:47Lex!
00:38:50Oh my God, Lex, I thought you...
00:39:12I'm fine.
00:39:13Fine.
00:39:15I did scratch your trunk.
00:39:17Again, I'm sorry.
00:39:19I'll get a fix.
00:39:20What were you thinking?
00:39:21Stealing your friend's truck and disappearing for three hours?
00:39:26What?
00:39:28You used the F-word, St. James.
00:39:32You're unbelievable.
00:39:35Mr. Hall, good news.
00:39:37Looks like you don't have a concussion and you haven't sustained any serious injuries.
00:39:40You're lucky, but you were driving an oversized vehicle without a license and I'm afraid to say I'm going to
00:39:48have to report that to the police.
00:39:49No!
00:39:50If Lex's mom finds out about this, she's going to force him on the first flight out of this town.
00:39:57Uh, doctor, please, it won't happen again, I promise.
00:40:00Uh, I'm sorry, Mr. Hall.
00:40:02My hands are tied, and in you being who you are, I have to go by the book and follow
00:40:07protocol.
00:40:09I screwed up, okay?
00:40:11But my mom can't find out about this as soon as she does on the first flight back to L
00:40:14.A.
00:40:15Sorry, that's not my problem.
00:40:21Doctor, please.
00:40:23I know Lex broke a lot, but he also saved a life.
00:40:30My father ran out of his heart meds, and he started to feel unwell, and I didn't want to leave
00:40:35him alone.
00:40:36So Lex said that he would take my truck and run to the pharmacy.
00:40:40I just needed someone to help me and tell me everything that's going to be okay.
00:40:45Stevie is one of the most uptight, goody-two-shoe students I've ever known.
00:40:49Is she really lying to a doctor, breaking the law from me?
00:40:57Please.
00:40:58Please, doctor, he just wanted to help me.
00:41:00I mean, you're a doctor, you would do anything to save someone's life too, right?
00:41:04If the police and Lex's mother find out about this, I'll never see him again.
00:41:12All right.
00:41:14You're lucky that she was here.
00:41:16Discharge you, and I won't report this, but don't let it happen again.
00:41:20I won't.
00:41:22I promise.
00:41:22Thank you, doctor.
00:41:31Who are you?
00:41:35You didn't have to do all that.
00:41:38I was mad at you.
00:41:40I still am.
00:41:41But you shouldn't be treated like property by your mom.
00:41:46Or have to live a life that you hate.
00:41:50I've never had anyone stick their neck out like that for me.
00:41:53Let alone make up, like, a whole story.
00:42:11Well, it wasn't entirely made up.
00:42:14Didn't happen today, but it's true.
00:42:18My father has a heart condition, and he's not been doing very well recently, so.
00:42:37I'm sorry, Stevie.
00:42:38I had no idea.
00:42:40But I do now, and I'm here.
00:42:49Hey, I want to be here, Stevie.
00:42:55I want to stay.
00:43:16It's my mom.
00:43:18She's probably worried sick about us.
00:43:20We should get back home.
00:43:21Yeah.
00:43:23Yeah, home sounds lovely.
00:43:30It's a pretty serious work that I've had before you leave.
00:43:32Well, I tried.
00:43:35So, are you going to tell me why you disappeared with my truck for three hours now, or no?
00:43:42Ta-da!
00:43:49What's all this for?
00:43:51Look, I know you don't think you fit into Hollywood.
00:43:55Frankly, I kind of like that you don't.
00:43:57I don't.
00:43:58I know you've always wanted to see it, so I made some preparations for a big Hollywood party you're attending
00:44:07tomorrow night.
00:44:11Wait, Joe Collins' party?
00:44:13Yeah.
00:44:14Like, like, the biggest director of all of Hollywood.
00:44:18Yeah.
00:44:23Don't be late.
00:44:24Don't bring your friend.
00:44:26It's not her scene, and you know it.
00:44:29No, Lex, I, I can't.
00:44:32All the top young actors will be there, and I'm not one of them.
00:44:36In all of this, it's, it's not me.
00:44:38Well, say, James.
00:44:44You say you want to act in Hollywood, right?
00:44:47That you want to be a big actress?
00:44:49Well, this is what it looks like.
00:44:51And now you're scared?
00:44:52No, I'm not scared, Lex.
00:44:54I just, I don't want to be treated like a puppet being jerked around, like...
00:44:58Like me.
00:45:01Lex.
00:45:04No, no, it's, um, it's cool.
00:45:06Yeah.
00:45:07I read you loud and clear.
00:45:10I thought after all this time, you would see me different.
00:45:31I don't want to be treated like a puppet being jerked around, like...
00:45:34Like me.
00:45:36Lex.
00:45:37I thought after all this time, you would see me different.
00:45:41No.
00:45:44I went too far.
00:45:46Lex was just trying to help, and I pushed him away.
00:45:49I have to go apologize.
00:45:59Lex.
00:46:01Lex.
00:46:02Your bed was squeaking.
00:46:04I thought I'd check up on you.
00:46:07Oh, um, thanks.
00:46:09Yeah.
00:46:11Look, I'm really sorry I called you a prop.
00:46:13I think the word was puppet.
00:46:16Yeah, puppet.
00:46:18Go on.
00:46:19You were right.
00:46:21Okay, I'm scared.
00:46:24I know a movie star like you probably wouldn't understand, but...
00:46:28What if I'm not good enough?
00:46:30My dreams are just some big joke.
00:46:32I mean, I am just a theater nerd.
00:46:35I think we both know you're more than just a theater nerd, Stevie St. James.
00:46:40I mean, you're actually coming out of jail tonight.
00:46:43That's not nothing.
00:46:44I guess you're not always the goody-two-shoes I thought you were.
00:46:48Well, looks like we gotta get to know each other better.
00:46:53Well, let's.
00:47:00You ever heard of a game?
00:47:02Two truths, won't lie.
00:47:07You have a flask.
00:47:10That is so typical.
00:47:12You mean you're out theater nerd?
00:47:16Okay.
00:47:22You give me two truths and one lie, but if I guess it, you drink.
00:47:29Okay, I like the smell of rain, I like chocolate, and I had an imaginary friend until I was five.
00:47:39Five?
00:47:42No way.
00:47:43Hey, okay, the game is two truths, one lie, and I'll make fun of Stevie, who I had no one
00:47:48to play with growing up.
00:47:49Okay, okay, you're right.
00:47:51I'm sorry.
00:47:53This one's way too easy.
00:47:55You hate chocolate.
00:47:58Like some sort of psychopath.
00:48:00Wait, how do you?
00:48:01You always get the vanilla pudding cups at the cafeteria, and you only eat the center of Oreos?
00:48:06Again, like a psychopath.
00:48:08I can't believe Lex actually noticed all that.
00:48:15Frank.
00:48:28Wow.
00:48:29Strong stuff.
00:48:32Okay.
00:48:33Your turn.
00:48:35Okay.
00:48:35Let's see.
00:48:38I can fly a helicopter.
00:48:40I can speak four languages.
00:48:43I've never kissed a girl outside of a movie.
00:48:46Wow, you are really trying to hug this flask to yourself, aren't you?
00:48:51Lex, I'm not a caveman.
00:48:52I know how many girls you've kissed.
00:48:55Wait a minute.
00:48:56Say, James.
00:48:58Is it just me?
00:49:02Okay.
00:49:02Okay.
00:49:10What?
00:49:10No.
00:49:11Of course I'm not jealous.
00:49:13You're Lexington Hall.
00:49:14The Hollywood prodigy.
00:49:16Ultimate bad guy.
00:49:18Okay, now you're just quoting TMZ.
00:49:20I'm serious.
00:49:21I mean, you've kissed all these girls, and it's okay.
00:49:25It's who you are.
00:49:35See, we are getting to know each other better.
00:49:39Truth is, I speak five languages, not four.
00:49:54Not bad for a theater nerd.
00:49:56You are a terrible influence, Mr. Hollywood.
00:50:00But I am an influence.
00:50:02But seriously, you've never had a real-life kiss.
00:50:06You've dated all of these movies.
00:50:08I've tended to date St. James.
00:50:10Those are all PR moves.
00:50:12I mean, that's Lexington Hall.
00:50:16That's my life.
00:50:18I don't get to decide who to be with, or who to like, or who to kiss.
00:50:29Hollywood is a lonely place.
00:50:37It's not like I never tried.
00:50:39It's just, I haven't met anyone that made me feel less alone.
00:50:47Until now.
00:50:57Two truths won't lie.
00:51:00You're kind.
00:51:02You're my first real friend.
00:51:04And...
00:51:09You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:13That's the thing about this game, St. James.
00:51:15If you don't know which ones are lying, they might all be true.
00:51:19You're the first girl.
00:51:35You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:37You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:37You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:38You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:38You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:39You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:39You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:39You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:41You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:43You're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
00:51:48Did that make you feel less alone?
00:51:51I felt less alone since I met you, Stevie.
00:51:56I mean, being here with you, and your family, and this farm, it all feels so...
00:52:07Normal.
00:52:07No, real.
00:52:11I mean, even this room.
00:52:13Plastic stars, Alessia Lee.
00:52:15Me and my grandma put them up there when I was five.
00:52:19Watch this.
00:52:29You know, this is exactly what I wanted as a kid.
00:52:32You can't even see the stars in my life.
00:52:35But who will give you a bedroom like this when you're always traveling and staying in hotels?
00:52:49You know, you were right.
00:52:52I was scared.
00:52:54To go to the party and meet all those Hollywood people.
00:53:00To find out maybe I'm not good enough.
00:53:05But I promised my grandma I wouldn't give up.
00:53:09This is my dream.
00:53:14Will you still take me and promise to stay by my side?
00:53:24I promise.
00:53:31You need a hand, Mr. Movie Star?
00:53:42One of us looks like a star.
00:53:44That ain't me.
00:53:45I don't look like a theater nerd anymore.
00:53:47Maybe a little.
00:53:49Who has your secret safe with me?
00:53:54You know, I've been to like a thousand of these Hollywood parties.
00:53:58And I always dread going to them.
00:54:01But tonight, I'm kind of excited.
00:54:06That's because you always went as Lex Hall, the movie star.
00:54:10Tonight we are going just as Lex Hall and Stevie St. James.
00:54:17All done.
00:54:19It's perfect.
00:54:28Bring her down somewhere, Scott.
00:54:30It's great.
00:54:30Uh, my apologies, miss.
00:54:33This car is for Mr. Hall, only.
00:54:38Excuse me?
00:54:39She's my date.
00:54:40She's coming with me to the party.
00:54:41This ride is for you and you only, Mr. Hall.
00:54:43It was a request directly from your mother.
00:54:45So we're afraid the lady will have to find her own means of transportation.
00:54:49It's an awfully nice truck.
00:54:51I bet it will suit her outfit really well.
00:54:55Okay, listen, asshole.
00:54:57I know my mom signs your checks, but I'm the one that makes all the money.
00:55:01So what are you morons?
00:55:02Learn some respect.
00:55:03Lex, don't.
00:55:05It's only going to give your mother an excuse to drag you back to L.A.
00:55:09It's not worth it.
00:55:11Look out.
00:55:12It's what I do.
00:55:14You can't be late, Phil.
00:55:16I'll take the pickup truck and I'll meet you there.
00:55:20Promise.
00:55:22So go.
00:55:24Okay.
00:55:34Better meet me there.
00:55:36Yeah.
00:56:01That sneaky little snake is driving her own truck.
00:56:06Fabulous.
00:56:08Bring my son to my dressing room when he gets here.
00:56:11We're going to end this silly tantrum once and for all.
00:56:24You have to take my phone, Mom.
00:56:26Steve is going to be here any second.
00:56:28What is it you hate about this world so much, Lexington?
00:56:32Is it the money?
00:56:33The fame?
00:56:34Maybe it's the fans who worship the ground you walk on.
00:56:37Maybe it's the mom who treats me like merchandise.
00:56:40You think about that?
00:56:41I didn't choose this world, Mom.
00:56:44You shrugged me into it when I was three.
00:56:45I've never known anything else.
00:56:47I mean, I just want to go to school.
00:56:49I want to play football with my friends in P.E.
00:56:51I want to ask a girl I like to prom, Mom, like other normal 18-year-olds.
00:57:02I just want to be normal, Mom.
00:57:08Normal life is for mediocre people, Lexington, not you.
00:57:13I know what this obsession is.
00:57:15It's that girl, isn't it?
00:57:17Stevie St. James.
00:57:22Stevie has nothing to do with this.
00:57:24It's my life, Mom.
00:57:26I'm telling you I've had enough.
00:57:28Do you think she would even be interested in you if you were a nobody?
00:57:32I've done research into her.
00:57:34I know she wants to be an actress, and I will give her credit.
00:57:37In just three weeks, she has managed to get you to move to her farm
00:57:41and convinced you to bring her to one of the biggest parties in Hollywood.
00:57:46That's not who Stevie is.
00:57:49You don't even know her.
00:57:51Even so,
00:57:54if she wants to be a part of this world,
00:57:57I'm going to let her.
00:58:00What are you going to do?
00:58:02Don't villainize me, son.
00:58:04I'm not doing anything.
00:58:07But your peers out there,
00:58:09oh,
00:58:12they're going to tear her to pieces.
00:58:15Mom!
00:58:16Mom!
00:58:18Fuck!
00:58:18Mom, open this door!
00:58:23Hey, it's me.
00:58:25You know what to do.
00:58:27Um,
00:58:28Lex,
00:58:28I'm here.
00:58:29I know you're probably inside me right now,
00:58:31but I'll meet you inside.
00:58:33And remember,
00:58:35tonight, you're just you.
00:58:38But I'll meet you inside.
00:58:40And remember,
00:58:42tonight, you're just you.
00:59:02Where is Lex?
00:59:07Oh, my God, Stevie.
00:59:10Look at you all dressed up.
00:59:12Oh, don't tell me you chased Lex down here like some pathetic little dog.
00:59:19No, I'm here because Lex invited me.
00:59:23Sure.
00:59:23Yeah, because the hottest guy in showbiz wants you as his date.
00:59:27Not any of the actresses or models or heiresses in this room.
00:59:32You.
00:59:37Oh, no, Stevie.
00:59:39Did your acting partner ditch you?
00:59:41Yeah, I know.
00:59:43Don't you see, Stevie?
00:59:45First, your acting partner ditched you,
00:59:47and now Lex is cutting you off.
00:59:49I guess that's just what happens to food stamp farm hicks
00:59:52who don't give up on their delusional little dreams.
00:59:59Can this be true?
01:00:01Did Lex really leave without saying goodbye?
01:00:07So,
01:00:08you're the girl who's trying to take my son away from me.
01:00:14Mom!
01:00:15Mom!
01:00:15Are you crazy?
01:00:16Let me out!
01:00:28I haven't done anything.
01:00:30Lex ran away from you.
01:00:32You don't know him.
01:00:32Neither do you.
01:00:34Just because he gave you some woe-is-me act
01:00:36does not mean you are friends.
01:00:38You are a palate cleanser.
01:00:40His temporary escape.
01:00:42I mean, look around.
01:00:43Lex belongs here.
01:00:44In this world.
01:00:45With us.
01:00:46Not with you.
01:00:47And he knows I'm right.
01:00:48Which is why he's on a plane back to L.A. right now.
01:00:51So,
01:00:52Ms. St. James.
01:00:54It's time for you
01:00:55to go back to your world.
01:01:00Wait, no.
01:01:01I want to see Lex.
01:01:02You're never going to see Lex again.
01:01:04And if you try,
01:01:05a restraining order is just the beginning.
01:01:08If you care about Lex at all,
01:01:10you will leave him and never come back.
01:01:13Please escort this young lady out of here.
01:01:26She's not going anywhere.
01:01:48She's not going anywhere.
01:01:54I'm 18, Mom.
01:01:55Which means I can sue my own parent for extortion.
01:01:57Are you threatening me, Lexington Hall?
01:02:01What do you think?
01:02:03After all,
01:02:04I'm from the past,
01:02:05didn't I?
01:02:23I just stopped.
01:02:25You can't keep doing this, okay?
01:02:28I can't keep making a fool of myself,
01:02:30and you can't keep rescuing me.
01:02:32No, no.
01:02:32It's okay, Steven.
01:02:33You're just...
01:02:34I'm nobody.
01:02:37You're not nobody.
01:02:40I'm done humiliating myself,
01:02:42but they're Lon and Natalie,
01:02:44they were running.
01:02:51There's a terrible world
01:02:53that is made for you,
01:02:54and I'm not made to be a part of that,
01:02:57and I have to accept that.
01:03:03Just go back to your party.
01:03:05They will tell Mr. Hamlin tomorrow
01:03:07that I'm dropping out of the school for now.
01:03:09You're dropping Hamlin?
01:03:11You're giving up.
01:03:12Are you serious right now, Stevie?
01:03:14Where's the girl who the first day we met
01:03:16says she was going to act in Hollywood one day?
01:03:19I knocked that door down for her.
01:03:25Don't worry, Lex.
01:03:27I have to grow up.
01:03:29I have to go.
01:03:34What about last night?
01:03:35Look at her kiss.
01:03:38Did that not mean anything to you?
01:03:40It meant everything to me, Lex.
01:03:43We tried.
01:03:45But at the end of the day,
01:03:47you're still a superstar,
01:03:48and I'm just a farm girl.
01:03:51We both know how the movie ends.
01:04:06I guess it was never meant to be.
01:04:11Mr. Hamlin,
01:04:12I really appreciate you giving me the lead role,
01:04:14but I need to return the script.
01:04:18Alex, I told you I'm not doing the play anymore.
01:04:21Look down.
01:04:37Alex,
01:04:38this is...
01:04:40Your very first red carpet.
01:04:43You did all of this
01:04:45just so I'd stay in the school play?
01:04:47I did it so you'd stay.
01:04:50You're not giving up, Stevie.
01:04:52Not on acting.
01:04:53Not on this boring-ass play
01:04:55you dragged me into.
01:05:01And definitely not on us.
01:05:07Lex.
01:05:09Seriously, what if I'm not good enough?
01:05:11For Hollywood
01:05:12and for you.
01:05:15Well, there's one thing I've learned
01:05:16over the past 15 years in this industry.
01:05:19It's that practice makes perfect.
01:05:26Now,
01:05:28Miss Bennett,
01:05:30I was wondering if I may have this dance.
01:05:35Yes.
01:05:41Acting is my dream
01:05:43and I promised someone
01:05:44I would never give up on that dream.
01:05:45And if I find out
01:05:46that you were messing around
01:05:48with some gold-digging farm girl,
01:05:50not only will I ruin your life,
01:05:53I'll ruin hers.
01:05:54You are a palate cleanser.
01:05:56Lex belongs here,
01:05:57not with you.
01:05:58Do you choose one line?
01:06:00You're kind.
01:06:01You're my first real friend.
01:06:02And you're the first girl
01:06:04that's made me feel this way.
01:06:13Mr. Darcy.
01:06:18I didn't think you actually
01:06:19wanted to dance with me.
01:06:29Your companions call me lesser,
01:06:32implying that a maiden like me
01:06:33should never be
01:06:34with a gentleman like you.
01:06:39This is where Darcy says he agrees.
01:06:41I know this is the line,
01:06:43but it still stings
01:06:44every time he says...
01:06:45Well, they were wrong.
01:06:49You're the one I want, Stevie.
01:06:53Lex, it's...
01:06:54not in the script.
01:06:55Well, if the script is me
01:06:56selling my soul in Hollywood,
01:06:57or my mom and those rich assholes
01:06:59hurting you, then...
01:07:02well...
01:07:05I am done following the script.
01:07:34What's so funny?
01:07:37Nothing.
01:07:38It's just...
01:07:40it all suddenly feels so real.
01:07:44being here with you,
01:07:45getting to know you,
01:07:47finally believing that maybe
01:07:49I really can fit up to your world.
01:07:53I think you can.
01:07:54As long as you remember the lesson.
01:07:57Practice me perfect.
01:07:59And our next thing to practice,
01:08:01Miss Stevie St. James,
01:08:03is you walk in this red carpet
01:08:04like you own it.
01:08:07You ready, St. James?
01:08:09Lex.
01:08:10Come on, you're ready.
01:08:13No.
01:08:14No red carpets
01:08:15come through without
01:08:15a little bit of paparazzi.
01:08:17No.
01:08:19Miss St. James!
01:08:21Miss St. James,
01:08:22over here, over here!
01:08:23Please, please, please!
01:08:23Okay, now over here, over here!
01:08:25Please, please,
01:08:25tell us, we're all wondering.
01:08:26Who are you wearing tonight?
01:08:28I'm wearing...
01:08:29some...
01:08:30Oh, it's gorgeous!
01:08:31Oh, stop!
01:08:32You weren't getting so nice!
01:08:33Oh, stop!
01:08:34What can she not do?
01:08:36And now,
01:08:36the big question is
01:08:37everyone's wondering.
01:08:38We can't get enough.
01:08:39How does it feel
01:08:40to win the Oscar?
01:08:41It feels like
01:08:43all my dreams
01:08:44since I was five
01:08:45have come true.
01:08:47We love to hear it.
01:08:48That is just gorgeous.
01:08:50A woman of many words.
01:08:51So many words.
01:08:52Speaking of dreams,
01:08:54we hear Lex Hall
01:08:55inspired you.
01:08:56Do you have any words
01:08:57that you'd like to share with him?
01:08:59I would tell him
01:09:01thank you
01:09:02for being my acting partner
01:09:04and
01:09:06believing in my dreams
01:09:07more than I do.
01:09:10It's perfect.
01:09:12I mean, that's a wrap.
01:09:15It's not so bad
01:09:17for the first time,
01:09:17farm girl.
01:09:19Practice makes perfect.
01:09:21So,
01:09:22safe to say
01:09:23I'm not a spoiled
01:09:24Hollywood brat,
01:09:25huh?

01:13:02Where do you think you're going, son?
01:13:04Mom, the place starts in 15 minutes, okay?
01:13:05I don't have time for this right now.
01:13:07Stevie's with me.
01:13:07Oh, I'm so glad you mentioned your little friend.
01:13:11Because I have something that might be of interest to both of you.
01:13:24Not a good look for a young girl who dreams of winning an Oscar someday, is it?
01:13:33Where did you get that?
01:13:35I have my ways, Lacks.
01:13:37I've been cleaning up your mess in Hollywood for years.
01:13:41Did you really think a high school girl would be the end of me?
01:13:45It's a mess between us, Mom.
01:13:47Don't drag Stevie into this.
01:13:48You just want to be an actress.
01:13:49And she might have a real chance.
01:13:51If you break up with her tonight.
01:13:54What are you talking about?
01:13:56Leave her.
01:13:57Come back to L.A. with me.
01:13:59I will arrange an anonymous scholarship for her.
01:14:01She can attend any of the premium acting academies she wants.
01:14:07And you know, for a girl like her, it's really the best she can hope for.
01:14:11You know that, Les.
01:14:12For 18 years, I've been nothing but a pawn to you, Mom.
01:14:16I am not letting you do the same thing to Stevie.
01:14:18I'm not doing anything to her.
01:14:20You are, Lexington.
01:14:21Because if you don't do what I say, her family might just lose their farm.
01:14:27Because I will take their home apart brick by brick.
01:14:31And she will never have a single audition in her entire life.
01:14:35So what's it going to be, son?
01:14:39You're a monster.
01:14:40Who knows what's best for you.
01:14:43You're destined to be great, not normal.
01:14:46So don't let your sentiment ruin your future and hers.
01:14:55So what do you want me to do?
01:14:57You want me to lie to her?
01:14:58Tell her that none of this was real.
01:15:00You're an actor, aren't you?
01:15:01A great one.
01:15:04Act.
01:15:19I won't leave you alone, Stevie St. James.
01:15:23I promise.
01:15:24Thank you for being my acting partner and believing in my dreams more than I do.
01:15:33I'm sorry, Stevie.
01:15:36I'm so sorry.
01:15:40This is it.
01:15:41I'm playing the lead role of the school play.
01:15:56This is everything I've dreamed of.
01:15:58And I get to do it with.
01:16:10Where is Lex?
01:16:15What's going on?
01:16:16Something's wrong.
01:16:18Oh my God.
01:16:18Is Lex Hall ditching Stevie on opening night?
01:16:21That's fucking brutal.
01:16:24This can't be happening.
01:16:26Lex wouldn't do this to me.
01:16:27Lex is the hottest thing in Hollywood.
01:16:30He doesn't actually want to act with some talentless hillbilly like you.
01:16:33You're kind.
01:16:33You're my first real friend.
01:16:35And you're the first girl that's made me feel this way.
01:16:38I won't leave you alone, Stevie St. James.
01:16:41I promise.
01:16:44Well, it looks like the movie star finally dumped the farm hick.
01:16:49Zoom in on me.
01:16:51Get off the stage, freak.
01:16:54Get off the stage, freak.
01:16:56Bye-bye.
01:17:15Stevie.
01:17:18Where the hell were you, Lex?
01:17:22Leave her.
01:17:23Come back to L.A. with me.
01:17:24I will arrange an anonymous scholarship for her.
01:17:27And you know, for a girl like her, it's really the best she can hope for.
01:17:32I got called into a huge audition.
01:17:34Okay.
01:17:36I mean, what did you expect, St. James?
01:17:38I was really going to give up everything in my life for you?
01:17:41You and your stupid school play.
01:17:43I have wanted this for four years, Lex.
01:17:47For the first time I got to do what I love.
01:17:49Show everyone that maybe, just maybe I'm good enough.
01:17:55And you promised you would be there for me.
01:17:58You promised.
01:18:01I know, but if I don't do this and you'll never achieve your dream, either way, I'm losing you.
01:18:07Promise?
01:18:08It's called acting, Stevie.
01:18:10That's all I was doing.
01:18:11I'm just that good.
01:18:12Maybe you should try it sometime.
01:18:14Maybe then, you can make your little dreams come true.
01:18:23Go back to Hollywood, Lex.
01:18:25And stay the hell out of my life.
01:18:29And you don't have to worry about selling your soul when you get to L.A.
01:18:33You don't have one anyway.
01:18:42Lex, let me...
01:18:53You are unbelievable, Lex.
01:18:55I was right about you.
01:18:57I never should have trusted him.
01:18:59Stay, wait.
01:19:00Lex, all I have done since you have come into my life is wait.
01:19:04Wait for you to act with me.
01:19:05Wait for you to be my friend.
01:19:07Wait for you to think that I'm actually special.
01:19:09You are special.
01:19:12You're the only girl that's ever meant anything to me.
01:19:16But I have to go.
01:19:18Why, Lex?
01:19:18Why do you have to go?
01:19:25It's your mom, isn't it?
01:19:28She's making you go back to Hollywood.
01:19:30Lex, look at me.
01:19:32You don't have to listen to her.
01:19:34We can figure this out.
01:19:37Not this.
01:19:38See, I just need you to trust me.
01:19:41Lexington!
01:19:44Lexington Hall!
01:19:44I'll you get out of that truck right now!
01:19:47Lex, what are you waiting for?
01:19:49Drive!
01:19:50Drive!
01:19:56Find my son.
01:19:58We are going back to L.A. tonight.
01:20:01Whatever it takes.
01:20:07Lex, what was your mom doing?
01:20:09She must have something on you.
01:20:11She must be the reason why you're going back.
01:20:12No, Stevie.
01:20:13She has something on you.
01:20:15Her family might just lose their farm.
01:20:18Because I will take their home apart, brick by brick.
01:20:22And she will never have a single audition in her entire life.
01:20:26I don't give a shit about me, Stevie.
01:20:28But I won't let her hurt you.
01:20:29Lex, please, just talk to me.
01:20:31You have a good life, okay, Stevie?
01:20:33You have a real life.
01:20:35You have a family who loves you, and you have a passion, you got a dream.
01:20:40And I won't be the reason you lose all that.
01:20:43Look, just go back to that life, will ya?
01:20:46Forget you who ever knew me.
01:20:48I know you.
01:20:49I know who you are.
01:20:50I know that thing, okay?
01:20:52It was never going to fucking work, all right?
01:20:55I...
01:20:56Stevie!
01:21:10Oh, my God.
01:21:17You
