Episode 663 The New Star.
In Episode 663 - The New Star, tensions flare as Richard and
Bridget face the aftermath of recent events, setting the stage for a dramatic
showdown. The episode kicks off with Richard laughing at Bridget's
stubbornness, understanding her foul mood after the turbulent days they've
endured. As they prepare for a press conference for the Savage Wars project,
Richard acknowledges the challenge of seeing Annie, the actress who stole
Bridget's role, basking in the spotlight. Although Bridget tries to mask her
dismay, Richard can sense her disappointment and promises to help her exact
revenge on Annie. However, Bridget, fiercely independent, insists that she can
handle it on her own, leaving Richard frustrated but determined to assist her
nonetheless.
The scene shifts as Bridget, accompanied by Richard, arrives
at Emma’s apartment. Bridget is anxious about the encounter, given the
unresolved issues between them. However, Emma quickly reassures her that the
situation with Annie was resolved without much difficulty. Richard chimes in,
informing them that Bridget has secured a leading role in the upcoming film
Mega Beast, a significant achievement in her career. Despite this, Bridget
remains visibly upset, leading Emma to question her somber demeanor.
Emma, aware of Bridget's insecurities, suggests that Bridget
might believe her success is due to Emma's influence over Blake, a
decision-maker in the industry. Emma firmly denies this, stating that Blake is
a professional who values talent over personal connections. If Bridget wasn't
deserving, she wouldn’t have been cast in the role. Richard, slightly
exasperated, notes that he has already tried to reassure Bridget of the same,
but his words didn’t have the desired effect. He then mentions that they’ll be watching
the press conference, not only as a learning experience but also as a lesson in
temper control for Bridget.
Unbeknownst to most, including Bridget, Emma had secretly collaborated with Matt to orchestrate the press conference, hinting at a potential surprise or twist to come. As Bridget leaves Emma's apartment, she feels drained from the day’s events and heads to her mother Eliza's room, hoping for a comforting chat. However, she’s met with an unexpected discovery—Eliza’s computer is open, revealing something that shocks Bridget. She wonders why her mother would be involved with an entertainment forum, leading to a tense confrontation when Eliza catches her in the act.
Eliza, startled and defensive, admits to being the one
behind some controversial online posts defending Emma. She explains that she
was only trying to stand up for what she believed was right, despite not
knowing Emma personally at the time. Bridget, confused but intrigued, presses
her mother for more information, but Eliza, nervous about what her daughter
might do if she discovers the full truth, pleads with Bridget not to tell
anyone. Bridget agrees, amused by the idea of her mother secretly championing Emma
online, and promises to keep Eliza's secret.
Later that evening, Emma, concerned about her husband Erik’s
late hours, asks Luke to drive her to Kaleidoscope, the agency where Erik
works. Upon arriving, she finds Erik busy and decides not to disturb him,
instead resting on a couch in the waiting area. A kind secretary wakes Emma up
with a cup of herbal tea, explaining that Erik has been swamped with work,
especially with the agency’s latest signing—an exceptionally talented young
star.
The secretary, perhaps unwittingly, divulges a lot of
information about this new star, who is not only a singer and songwriter but
also a successful screenwriter. This revelation stirs something in Emma, though
the secretary, realizing she may have overstepped, quickly reassures Emma of
her continued status as the agency's top star. Emma, however, is more concerned
about the implications of this new talent on her husband's career and their
relationship.
When Erik finally joins her, Emma probes him about the new
signing, expressing concern that Lewis, the agent in charge of the new star,
might poach other artists if he were to leave the company. Erik dismisses her
worries, confident that Lewis would not breach his contract due to the severe
financial penalties involved. He then turns his attention to Emma's wellbeing,
reminding her that she’s seven months pregnant and shouldn’t be out so late.
Despite Emma’s protests, Erik insists on taking her home, emphasizing the
importance of her health and that of their unborn child.
As they leave the building, a pair of women also exit,
recognizing Emma from a distance. One of them comments on Emma’s age,
highlighting the often superficial nature of the entertainment industry, where
even the most established stars are scrutinized for their appearance. The
episode closes on this note, underscoring the pressures and challenges faced by
those in the limelight, even as new stars rise to challenge their dominance.
Episode 664 Worlds Apart.
In Episode 664 - Worlds Apart, the ongoing saga of ambition,
rivalry, and shattered dreams takes center stage as Annie's illusions of
stardom come crashing down. The episode unfolds with a large press conference
for The Savage Wars, a much-anticipated production, where Annie hopes to make a
lasting impression. Draped in a long silver dress, she arrives at the event
with grand expectations, aiming to steal the spotlight despite her minor role
in the production. However, Annie's arrogance blinds her to the reality of her
situation—her name is buried deep in the credits, far from the prominence she
desires.
As the press conference buzzes with excitement, Annie
encounters Matt, one of the key figures behind the film, in the corridor
backstage. With a warm greeting, she hopes to secure his recognition, only to
be met with blank confusion. Matt doesn't even remember who she is, forcing his
assistant to remind him of Annie's identity. Dismissing her with a half-hearted
nod, Matt's disinterest is palpable. He quickly turns to his assistant,
questioning Annie's presence and expressing his desire to have her removed. The
assistant, complying with his boss's wishes, directs Matt towards the stage,
leaving Annie behind, blissfully unaware of the turmoil about to unfold.
Annie, convinced that this minor role will catapult her into
stardom, begins to fantasize about future opportunities in movies, advertising,
and fashion. However, her daydreams are abruptly shattered when she realizes
that the press conference has started without her. Confusion turns to panic as
she rushes to Matt's assistant to inquire about her absence from the stage. To
her dismay, the assistant coldly informs her that her role has been recast and
that there is no place for her at the event. Shocked and in denial, Annie
protests, insisting that she was promised a key role in the film, only to be
met with indifference. The assistant, weary of the exchange, explains that
actors are often replaced when they don't fit the role, but Annie refuses to
accept this reality.
In a desperate bid to reclaim her position, Annie storms
onto the stage, disrupting the press conference in a scene that leaves everyone
in shock. As she attempts to push one of the actors out of their seat, the
audience and the press are stunned. Matt, livid with anger, demands that
security remove her immediately. The situation quickly spirals out of control
as Annie is dragged backstage, where the director's assistant confronts her. In
a heated exchange, Annie insists that the role was hers, while the assistant
berates her for causing such a public spectacle. He reminds her that her
contract was canceled long ago and that she should have spoken to her manager
instead of making a fool of herself.
Humiliated and furious, Annie calls her manager, Anthony, only to discover that he knew about her replacement but chose not to inform her. His reasoning is simple—he never expected her to embarrass herself so publicly. Worse still, Anthony reveals that he has lost money due to her being dropped from the movie and can no longer afford to work with someone who is a liability. To add insult to injury, he tells her that their professional relationship is over, leaving Annie devastated. The conversation ends abruptly as Anthony hangs up, leaving Annie to grapple with the consequences of her actions.
The episode closes with Annie's public humiliation spreading
rapidly across the internet, turning her into a laughingstock. The news that
she had tried to force her way into a press conference for a role she no longer
had becomes a viral joke, with people mocking her ignorance and desperation. As
Annie reflects on her downfall, she is haunted by the thought of how her rival,
Bridget, will react. Although she takes some comfort in knowing that Bridget
did not get the role either, her relief is short-lived. Rumors begin to
circulate that Blake's new movie, Mega Beast, will feature a newcomer, and when
the female lead is finally revealed, it is none other than Bridget herself.
The episode ends with Annie's worst fears realized—while her
career lies in ruins, Bridget's star continues to rise. The once-hopeful
actress is left to confront the harsh reality that her and Bridget's career
trajectories are now worlds apart, leaving her to wonder how everything could
have gone so wrong so quickly.
