The crowd dispersed, and Depp was pulled up from the muck of urine by his companions, emanating a repulsive stench.
Louise's female bodyguard stood at the forefront with around a dozen won from the film crew, hurling accusations of Depp's sexual harassnt as if they cost nothing.
Daddario, who temporarily acted as a caraperson, captured the entire process.
It wasn't just Daddario; many from the film crew who hadn't gotten physically involved were recording.
Nowadays, phones with cara functions are far too common.
Depp had been brutally beaten by people from "The Martian" film crew, and there would definitely be so trouble to follow.
Louise, the leftist with a keen sense of sll, had long let go of Martin's arm and quickly ca to an agreent after chatting with so of the well-known won in the crew.
Depp's puddle of urine had offended everyone from "The Martian" film crew.
Most of them were willing to accuse Depp of sexually harassing won in public.
Louise found Martin and Ridley and said, "There will be so trouble following this."
Martin glanced at his watch, "The FBI people probably haven't gone far, let's call the police and have them co back. Accuse Depp of sexual harassnt and take the initiative."
Ridley was also furious. In the eyes of an old-school director like him, Depp's urine wasn't just on the ground but on Ridley Scott's face!
Although he didn't quite understand this novel misbehavior, he stated, "I can testify as well."
Louise went to make the call.
Martin found Bruce and exchanged a few words.
These affairs wouldn't really harm Depp much, but they were ant to spare the crew mbers involved in the scuffle any further trouble.
So dozens of ters away, Depp sat on a dry rock, accepting water handed over by a companion, spitting mud mixed with the foul sll of his urine from his mouth.
"Ptui, ptui..." After spitting out several mouthfuls of sludge, he took a swig from the water bottle and imdiately sprayed it out, shouting angrily, "Alcohol, I want alcohol, damn it!"
One of his mildly bruised lackeys quickly went to get alcohol.
gan Ellison already knew what had happened from Jerry Bruckheir and was so tired she didn't even want to utter a word.
Compared to Johnny Depp, she felt her father, Larry Ellison, could be considered an honest man who played by the rules.
gan said, "I don't care about the rest, Jerry, you have two days to deal with this. In two days, the film crew must start shooting on schedule."
Jerry didn't want to deal with these ssy issues either, but to prevent the crew from falling into turmoil, he responded, nodding reluctantly, and headed towards the gathering place of Martin, Louise, and Ridley.
Martin spared no pleasantries and interrogated, "Jerry, is this the apology you promised us?"
Jerry felt a pang of sha despite his thick skin, "Sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this, but we can resolve this internally..."
Martin cut him off, "Depp didn't just insult , but the entire 'The Martian' film crew. If I can't give them an explanation, I might as well quit Hollywood!"
Ridley interjected, "I've been a director for over forty years and never suffered such humiliation! Jerry, the captain you brought into the lilight has truly opened my eyes."
Being a traditionalist, he valued reputation, "If only I weren't old, I would have been among those who went over to confront him."
Louise pointed at the more than ten extrely agitated won, "We have to give them an explanation."
Jerry tried to speak again.
Martin interrupted, "There's no need for you to say more on this."
Jerry felt a headache coming on, slipping into self-doubt. Was his strategy of coddling and promoting Depp a mistake?
The FBI swiftly returned, and one after another, people from "The Martian" film crew stepped forward to testify that Depp publicly harassed won, including revered old directors like Ridley.
In contrast, Depp's side was devoid of support from the "Lone Ranger" film crew, aside from his companions. Nobody spoke up for him, and so even claid he got what he deserved.
gan Ellison simply stayed out of sight.
Jerry Bruckheir recognized that Depp needed to learn a lesson, but he made sure Depp wasn't taken away to avoid affecting the filming of "The Lone Ranger."
The matter of Depp being ganged up on thus ca to a temporary close, and the squabbling would continue later on.
As the conflict temporarily subsided, people from "The Martian" film crew headed back to their base.
Martin walked among the crowd, hearing nurous unusual comnts.
"I grabbed a handful of the mud soaked with Depp's urine and plastered it onto his face."
"That's nothing, I directly shoved the mud into his mouth."
"He dared to insult us that way, I grabbed a flashlight, thinking of poking his ass with it, but the flashlight was too thick."
The crew's grievances were sowhat quelled, and they gradually dispersed.
Ridley returned to his director's office; there was work to prepare for the next day's normal filming schedule.
Bruce sought out those who had recorded on their phones, amassing a significant amount of on-site video, including footage shot by Daddario and the earlier set surveillance outside the rcedes van. It was enough material for a major news story.
...
Inside the most luxurious rcedes van of "The Lone Ranger" film crew.
Depp rushed through his shower, draped in a bathrobe, he sat on the sofa and began drinking from his glass.
Amber Heard had not followed him earlier, but she had heard about what happened. She couldn't be bothered to comnt or intervene, choosing instead to secretly take photos and record videos, believing that Depp's daily life might beco very valuable in the future.
Depp looked at Amber, "Go call them all over here."
Amber stepped out of the trailer, inviting Depp's gang of troublemaker friends aboard.
Their faces bruised and swollen, each one injured, they had been beaten badly earlier on.
One friend, nad Coulson, said, "Johnny, we can't just let this slide, not after all these years. When have we ever suffered such a loss?"
Depp wiped his mouth and poured another drink, "This cannot stand! Hodgson was taken, and you guys..."
Seeing his friends' wounds, he grew furiously indignant, "You have paid such a terrible price for ; we cannot let this go just like that!"
Ever since the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean," who in Hollywood didn't hold him in high esteem? When had Johnny Depp ever been subjected to such treatnt?
Moreover, his brothers had been beaten, every one of them injured!
Another friend, nad George, said, "I have an unregistered gun in Los Angeles..."
Coulson quickly held him back, "Don't be foolish. Do you think you can outgun those gangsters?"
Depp drained his glass and suddenly raised his head, asking, "Those people Hodgson dealt with, does anybody know them?"
Coulson responded, "I know who they are."
Stimulated by his brothers' injuries, Depp's mind lit up for the first ti in years, "Pay them, find the right channels, and tell them that their people and goods were reported to the FBI by Martin Davis."
Coulson said, "I'll leave the set right now to take care of this."
Depp wrote him a check.
Taking the money, Coulson exited the rcedes trailer and drove away in an SUV from Death Valley.
…
On the set of "The Martian," inside a rcedes trailer, Bruce was organizing video footage on his computer.
Louise looked over his shoulder then asked Martin, "You plan to expose it?"
"Not just expose it, but also make Depp's reputation stink even more," said Martin like a villain out of a movie, "The crew here has grievances, and so do I!"
Glowering, he added, "Do you know? It's been a long ti since I've felt this urge to personally smash soone's head in."
Louise couldn't help but shake her head, "I never imagined that a simple apology would escalate into such a farce."
Alone with Louise and Bruce with no outsiders present, Martin spoke candidly, "Whoever the fuck threatens my safety, I'll take them out first! Initially, I was going to give Jerry Bruckheir so face..."
He then turned to Bruce, "Call your old fla, tell her to co and get the scoop."
Bruce was reluctant to see Jody, "I could send it to her." He sighed, "Never mind, I'll call her and tell her to co."
"Those guys had detonators in their bags; do you know what I thought when I heard that?" Martin didn't wait for Louise's response and answered himself, "I wanted Old Cloth to stuff the detonators under the asses of those involved with the dealers, let them take a one-way flight!"
Louise, having been in an on-and-off relationship with Martin over the years, understood the implications of his words.
Bruce was unhappy, "You go stuff it yourself!"
Martin laughed, "Let's do it together."
Louise gave him a light smack, "Be serious."
Martin didn't need to pretend with Louise, "I fucking want to hit back, make Johnny Depp suffer a hundred tis more than writhing in piss and mud!"
Louise inquired, "Have you thought of a good way?" She advised, "Don't get direct. It's not worth it for a lousy drunk and a junkie."
Martin replied, "If I wanted to take matters into my own hands, I would have done it just now."
He stood where he could see the computer screen, "Whether it's drug use or connections with dealers, or peeing or whatever, even if the news makes a big splash, for a star of Depp's caliber, it's just temporary damage to his reputation."
Louise noted, "His collaborations with Anna Purna Pictures on two failed films make a big impact."
Martin's fighting spirit was ablaze, "But Johnny Depp is still a billionaire."
Louise suddenly thought of Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck.
Martin declared, "I want him to end up a holess junkie on the streets!"
Louise was eager to participate, as she too was among those Depp had publicly blasted, "Do you have a plan?"
On the way back, Martin had been reminiscing and thinking, and he said, "You're more familiar with the investnt world than I am. Help check if Depp has any investors or the like, and who exactly they are if he does."
Louise said, "It should not be difficult to find out."
Martin then spoke to Bruce, "You handle the news with Jody; I won't say more."
Bruce assured, "Leave it to ."
Martin took a bottle of water from the fridge, twisted it open and took a gulp, "When we were filming at Disney Studio, 'Lone Ranger' was shooting across from our stage. I heard a lot about Depp; apparently, he drove the whole crew crazy, including gan Ellison."
