Short filmTranscript
00:00:00My name is Casey Reed. No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, or that I'm Echo,
00:00:25the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys. I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter. We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:47Will you spit in my mouth?
00:00:55Dex, we're backstage. Someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you.
00:01:09I have no idea what you do to me, Kaze. How you make me feel. You are my favorite song.
00:01:14I lose control. My little man.
00:01:26I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:34And because you're already mine.
00:01:39I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm gonna sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:45And I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm gonna claim every inch of you.
00:01:50Note by note.
00:01:52In front of the whole world.
00:01:53Hey, Kaze, um, what's with all the secret phone calls? Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:14Nothing. It's just work stuff.
00:02:16Okay.
00:02:20It's time I come clean too.
00:02:22Once he finishes this concert, the echo mask will come off.
00:02:26And I can finally be the real me. His echo and his Kaze.
00:02:34You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:46I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:02:52We don't call me pretty, we know better than that
00:03:04Take a flight from the city, I'm missing a fall in his bed
00:03:09We don't call me pretty, we know better than that
00:03:22And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes
00:03:33Wait for me, right here
00:03:37Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts
00:03:44But I'll never lock him down as long as he's in bed with his grumpy assistant
00:03:48A round of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody
00:03:51Fans already love us, Dexter Hayes, you will be mine
00:03:58Scarlet Heart, Dexter Hayes groupie turned wannabe pop queen
00:04:04She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend
00:04:07Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint
00:04:11I've got a really special one for y'all tonight, hope you enjoy
00:04:15Shit, the backing mix is corrupted
00:04:27I can't let Dexter's show get ruined
00:04:30Echo can fix this
00:04:31Are you here?
00:04:36I need your help
00:04:37What the hell is she up to?
00:04:41Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so
00:04:47I'll be right back
00:04:50There, your gear from the studio
00:04:56Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:59Dad, we've talked about this
00:05:00In public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo
00:05:03But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him
00:05:06You made him the star he is
00:05:08I'm telling him tonight, but for now, I have a tractor remix
00:05:15Oh, that's my girl
00:05:16When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms
00:05:24Oh my god, these are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs
00:05:45Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:47Echo?
00:05:47Echo?
00:05:47Echo?
00:05:47Echo?
00:05:48Echo?
00:05:49Echo?
00:05:50Echo?
00:05:51Echo?
00:05:52Echo?
00:05:53Echo?
00:05:54Echo?
00:05:55Echo?
00:05:56Time to save Dex's concert
00:05:58Play that song!
00:05:59Play that song!
00:06:00Play that song!
00:06:01God, where's Casey?
00:06:02She said she'd stay right here
00:06:03Play that song!
00:06:04The show is a disaster
00:06:05The fans are waiting
00:06:06Can you please find her?
00:06:07I need her
00:06:08No, Dexter
00:06:09I'm the one you need
00:06:11What?
00:06:12This is Echo's novel
00:06:21Are you her?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:31Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did
00:06:35Wait
00:06:38Dexter, there's
00:06:41One more thing I should probably show you
00:06:44Um
00:06:45Casey has been hiding another man
00:06:53All those secret phone calls
00:06:55Dodged questions
00:06:56Casey was cheating on me this whole time
00:06:59Dexter
00:07:00I'm so sorry
00:07:01I would never, never do this to you
00:07:04Thanks
00:07:14Wait
00:07:15Didn't Echo just mix the new track?
00:07:17Uh
00:07:18And we're back
00:07:19Well, I uh
00:07:20I wrote this song for the love of my life
00:07:25At least I thought so
00:07:34Get ready Dex
00:07:35The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three
00:07:39Two
00:07:40One
00:07:42I'm a man as I
00:07:51Yeah
00:08:02Every time when I look I remember the time I saw you write
00:08:08One thing to remember by
00:08:11The time I looked into your eye
00:08:15The secret feeling again
00:08:17I know I was waiting at time
00:08:38I know I was waiting at time
00:09:08How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:17Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:31He promised he'd call me up on stage
00:09:34To announce our relationship
00:09:36I loved her
00:09:38And she betrayed me
00:09:40Oh my god!
00:09:52Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:01Oh my god!
00:10:03Dexie!
00:10:04Yes!
00:10:05Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together
00:10:10I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me
00:10:15No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:18But she made my career and Casey betrayed me
00:10:22It was all a lie
00:10:26It was all a lie
00:10:26Alright, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:31And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:35Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:45Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:45You promised me
00:10:56That you tell the world about us tonight
00:11:00But instead, you propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you gave me no choice
00:11:09I gave you everything
00:11:12I loved you
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her
00:11:19Okay?
00:11:20I-I-I-I-I owe her
00:11:21Alright?
00:11:21I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant
00:11:28What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career
00:11:32She made me who I am today
00:11:34Okay?
00:11:35So-so-so that's why
00:11:36What are you talking about?
00:11:38Scarlet is Echo
00:11:41You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is
00:11:53You know what?
00:11:54I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:11:58And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:02How could you believe her lies?
00:12:05Come on, all you do is lie
00:12:06You know, I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:12Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:14To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:18To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:22He could have had that with me
00:12:24This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:27Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty
00:12:32Just your music
00:12:35What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This is my notebook
00:12:43Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:46For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:48That's my notebook
00:12:50How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius
00:12:54And you're just
00:12:56Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:58Give it back
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me
00:13:01See what?
00:13:03She's gotten into you
00:13:03I don't
00:13:04I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:06Dexter, baby
00:13:08I know
00:13:09All about girls like her
00:13:11They want fame and money
00:13:13Without really ever having to work for it
00:13:15She's taking advantage of you
00:13:16She has been for years
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously
00:13:21Be believing this
00:13:22Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:26Okay?
00:13:26Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:28Go wait in the car
00:13:32Please
00:13:32Casey
00:13:38Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:45So please just
00:13:47Just tell me the truth
00:13:48Okay, right now
00:13:49Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:51Please
00:13:55Please
00:13:59The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:09You don't trust me anyway
00:14:11We're over
00:14:17Dex
00:14:20Goodbye
00:14:23Forever
00:14:24The hottest rock star
00:14:45On the planet
00:14:46Is officially off the market
00:14:47Dexter Hayes
00:14:49Popped the question
00:14:49To up and coming singer
00:14:51Scarlet Hart tonight
00:14:52And she said yes
00:14:53Dad
00:14:59I gave Dex everything
00:15:02I made his career
00:15:04But
00:15:04He doesn't want me
00:15:06He never did
00:15:08What happened, Princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart
00:15:11She stole him
00:15:13And now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:15I'll come get you
00:15:17Casey
00:15:21Casey, where are you?
00:15:23It looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:38Who are you?
00:15:41Let me go
00:15:42Don't worry Scarlet
00:15:44We won't hurt you
00:15:45We're your friends too
00:15:47We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:50We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:54We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:15:58You're trying to steal him from his soulmate
00:16:02I wasn't stealing him
00:16:03I wasn't stealing him
00:16:04We were in love
00:16:06Or I thought we were
00:16:08We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:11The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:13Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:17Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:23Dressing room
00:16:27Come alone
00:16:28Choose to save Scarlet Hart
00:16:30And we'll spare them
00:16:32Choose your little assistant
00:16:34And they both die
00:16:36You've reached Casey
00:16:38I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:40Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:45Casey?
00:16:46So she never left a concert
00:16:47Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:49Dexter is coming
00:16:52We'll see who his true love is
00:16:55You psychos!
00:16:57Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancée?
00:17:02Obviously not
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:07You fucked him too?
00:17:10God, our precious Dexter
00:17:13Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:16Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:18You don't deserve to live
00:17:20No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:23So, if Casey dies
00:17:26Then the truth dies with her
00:17:28That's not true
00:17:30First you steal my identity
00:17:32Now you're trying to get me murdered
00:17:33You're psychotic
00:17:35Oh, don't worry, Casey
00:17:36If you die today
00:17:38Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:39And maybe it'll even be the least single on our new album
00:17:43You're crazier than they are
00:17:45Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:48Macy
00:17:52Dexter!
00:17:53Dexter!
00:17:53Dexter!
00:17:54Dexter!

00:18:00Dexter!
00:18:01Dexter!
00:18:02Dexter!
00:18:03Dexter, help me!
00:18:04They hit me
00:18:05And then they tied me up
00:18:06And now they're trying to kill me
00:18:08Okay guys, let's
00:18:11Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:14We can't do that, Dexter
00:18:16We're your biggest fans
00:18:18We're doing this for you
00:18:21Okay, well if you love me
00:18:22Alright, you'll put the gun down
00:18:25And then let these two go
00:18:26Please
00:18:27No, that's not how this works
00:18:28Dexie
00:18:30You would be nothing without Echo
00:18:32We're engaged now, you can't let me die
00:18:36Dex, all the love we ever had
00:18:38All the memories, all the I love you's you told me
00:18:41Did they mean anything?
00:18:43You must choose one to live
00:18:46Will it be your future wife?
00:18:48Or your mistress?
00:18:51Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:55They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die
00:18:58I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart
00:19:02Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:07You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:14And you loved him?
00:19:17You leeched off him for half a decade
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:22Go ahead, make your choice
00:19:24Choose now or they both die
00:19:26Dexter, Dexter, please
00:19:29Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:31You dumped her, you chose me
00:19:33Don't let them murder me
00:19:35That's enough
00:19:36We're pulling the trigger in
00:19:37Three
00:19:39Two
00:19:40One
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:45Scarlet, alright?
00:19:46I choose Scarlet
00:19:52Dexter, I'm gonna faint
00:19:54I was so scared
00:19:56He chose Scarlet?
00:19:58Good choice
00:19:59Cheating whores deserve to die
00:20:01Now wait a minute, you told me that
00:20:03You made your choice, Dexter Hayes
00:20:05Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate
00:20:09And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece
00:20:12No, no, no, no, no, no
00:20:19I guess this is the end
00:20:26Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:28Put the gun down
00:20:29Put the gun down
00:20:31Put the gun down
00:20:32Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:34Hey, drop the gun
00:20:45Let's go, let's go
00:20:46Let's go, okay
00:20:47Okay, okay
00:20:48Okay, okay
00:20:49You left me to die
00:20:58And for the record
00:21:00I never needed your money
00:21:02I was right to walk away
00:21:04Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made
00:21:08Look, Casey, you don't understand, alright?
00:21:10They were gonna make me
00:21:11I'm done
00:21:13Living in your shadow, Dex
00:21:16Goodbye
00:21:22Casey, Casey
00:21:23Hey
00:21:31Casey
00:21:32Casey, stop
00:21:33Please, stop
00:21:34Please, please
00:21:35We're gonna go
00:21:36Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:38You should be asking yourself that same question
00:21:42Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone
00:21:45You're delusional
00:21:46He doesn't need you
00:21:47He has
00:21:48Echo
00:21:49Yeah
00:21:50Sure he does
00:21:52Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes
00:21:58Fame changed me?
00:22:00Okay
00:22:02And what about you?
00:22:03You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time
00:22:06I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger
00:22:14You chose her and you left me for dead
00:22:17No, Casey, you don't understand, I was trying to
00:22:19Oh my god, that's, that's, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:20Oh my god, that's, that's, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:21Oh my god, that's, that's, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:23Oh my god, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records.
00:22:50So sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:22:53You're here now.
00:22:56Take me home.
00:22:58You're here now.
00:23:00Take me home.
00:23:06We take our million, we're going to forgive you!
00:23:11I'll show you!
00:23:13I'll show you!
00:23:15I'll show you!
00:23:17I'll show you!
00:23:19I'll show you!
00:23:21K-Shay!
00:23:23K-Shay!
00:23:25K-Shay!
00:23:26Let me explain!
00:23:27Kaysha!
00:23:28Kaysha!
00:23:29Kaysha!
00:23:30Kaysha!
00:23:31Kaysha!
00:23:32Kaysha!
00:23:33Kaysha!
00:23:34Let me explain!
00:23:38Scarlett.
00:23:39Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:40You should have seen it.
00:23:42I almost died.
00:23:43And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:47I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:50She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:53And when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:23:58Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:01She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:03All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:06I thought Kaysha loved me.
00:24:08But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:17Forget him, princess.
00:24:20You are much too talented to be running some rockstar's errands.
00:24:24How could I be so blind?
00:24:29Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:32announcing you as the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:36And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:40It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:42My back is pressed.
00:24:59My back is pressed.
00:25:06No, no!
00:25:08Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:14The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:17Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:22The echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:27You can't even fix a simple beat?
00:25:30Or a key?
00:25:31What's going on?
00:25:33Look, Scarlet.
00:25:34I just gotta ask.
00:25:35Are you...
00:25:37Really...
00:25:38Echo?
00:25:41Are you...
00:25:43Really...
00:25:44Echo?
00:25:45Dexy...
00:25:47Of course I am.
00:25:50It's just...
00:25:51Your new assistant.
00:25:52He's been messing...
00:25:53No.
00:25:54He's messing with my tracks.
00:25:55He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:25:58I...
00:25:59I mean, look.
00:26:01Last saved by Max.
00:26:03Yeah, that's because you don't know how to...
00:26:05Okay, you know what?
00:26:06Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:10Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:13It's...
00:26:14And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would've never screamed over like that.
00:26:19You're fired.
00:26:20Let's do it again.
00:26:27Let's do it again.
00:26:43Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:46Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:03We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:08All right, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:13So why can't I do the same?
00:27:15Look what we just got. An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year. The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:24Look what we just got. An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year. The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:39Look, I'm not interested. Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:27:46Dexter. You said it yourself, they can lay down a track in hours. We have to go. This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:27:59Okay, look. I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him. He's a billionaire record executive. I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for a few extra bucks. You have to go and you have to impress him, okay? He could make or break our careers.
00:28:20Okay, I guess you're right. Of course I am. We are the industry's it couple. So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready. I mean, what was so special about her anyway? Her coarse tangled hair or her dull crusty skin or maybe those hideous god-awful clothes?
00:28:50I'm Echo. I'm the Reed heiress. And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:28:59How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:11We're honored. And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade. Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:21I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed merchant. Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:29I don't know. Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:32She is Ed Reed's daughter. I bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:37Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay? She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:41Look! Here she is now!
00:29:53No fucking way!
00:29:55Mom, what are you?
00:29:57Mom, what are you going to see?
00:30:20Casey?
00:30:24Casey?
00:30:25Hey, Dex. Long time no see.
00:30:31Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:34I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:37So, why does my heart still ache?
00:30:55Ignore her, but instead focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:01You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:04All we need to do is get on their good side and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:08She's right. I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a hit.
00:31:25Scarlet, what a terrible surprise.
00:31:34I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy,
00:31:37but this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:40I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:43But the party's just getting started. I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:50Why?
00:31:52So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records too?
00:31:56I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:01And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:03Leave or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:06I'd love to see you try.
00:32:11Are you jealous?
00:32:13I loved him and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:16How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:19You can dress up all you want, but you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl.
00:32:30I thought she was someone important.
00:32:32She's just a desperate assistant playing dress up.
00:32:35Imagine getting dragged by the scarlet heart.
00:32:38I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:40Where do you think she got the jewels though?
00:32:41Probably out whoring herself to old men.
00:32:44Just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:48Hmm.
00:32:49They got that right.
00:32:50Hmm.
00:32:52Is that so?
00:32:53Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:32:55Is it really me?
00:32:57Who's putting on an actor?
00:33:02Is it you?
00:33:03How dare you?
00:33:04Careful.
00:33:05The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:06Yeah.
00:33:07You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:08You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make in pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:22But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:25And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again, I will get you canceled so fucking hard your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:37Mr. Reed.
00:33:38Hi.
00:33:39Dexter Hayes.
00:33:40Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:42You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:45Well, I would really love to put that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:51Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:54Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my daughter, the heiress to the Reed Records fortune.
00:34:04Well, you know, sir, you may or may not have heard about the record that Scarlet Heart and I are working on.
00:34:11I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius over the last many decades, I think we could really make something special.
00:34:20Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:23And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:27Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO, well, that would make me forever grateful.
00:34:33Why don't you put in a good word yourself? The new CEO is already here.
00:34:39Casey. Casey. Casey. Casey. Casey.
00:34:43I've been trying to call you the last few days and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that instead you just showed up here.
00:34:49I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again. But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:34:55Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days. Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days. What, you missed me already?
00:35:09Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:13This event is invite only.
00:35:15Yeah. Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:19You know, Scarlett, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all night. If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:31Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here.
00:35:35You know, Scarlett, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all night. If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:45Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:35:50Yeah, right. The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO. You have no power here.
00:35:57Okay, guys. Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album. Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:05Aw, Dex. You forgot to say please.
00:36:10Wait, Casey, what, what?
00:36:19Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:24Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:33But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:39Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name on one of them.
00:36:46Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:36:51No more secrets, Dexter Hayes. It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:36:57Mr. Reed is looking right at us. He's gonna call us on stage.
00:37:01All right, this is it. He's gonna announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:05I want to introduce the heir to my billion dollar music empire.
00:37:10The new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:13My princess, in the light of my life, my daughter, Casey Reed.
00:37:20Casey Reed.
00:37:25What?
00:37:31No.
00:37:39Casey.
00:37:50That's the Reed heiress?
00:37:57Holy shit.
00:37:58She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:00She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:03Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:05Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:38:09She just committed career suicide.
00:38:11Mr. Reed, your gift for the lady of the hour.
00:38:15That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:18Gold?
00:38:19Dad, this is too much.
00:38:21Well, something from your old man.
00:38:22And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:38:26This cannot be happening.
00:38:28She's a nobody.
00:38:31I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me, but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:38:37Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:38:39He was her father.
00:38:40This whole time she was with me for love, not fame.
00:38:43She tried to tell me the truth and instead of trusting her, I left her for another woman.
00:38:49How could I be so blind?
00:38:58What suits you?
00:39:00The guitar and the CEO title.
00:39:04Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:06Casey, look, I just...
00:39:08I just...
00:39:21I just...
00:39:22I still miss you.
00:39:23I just...

00:43:46You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:48I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:43:52Casey's wrong about me.
00:43:53I never gave up on us.
00:43:55She's got another truth.
00:43:57I don't think there's anything left to talk about.
00:44:00Max.
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:09Let's not talk.
00:44:14What's wrong?
00:44:16Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied?
00:44:20I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:23Not anymore.
00:44:31I'm your former boss now.
00:44:33In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:36I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:42I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:44I just want you.
00:44:45And I know that you want me too.
00:44:48Don't act like you've forgotten what we had.
00:44:52I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:00You're a lot like an instrument.
00:45:02But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:04I don't care about the fans.
00:45:12I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:45:13I don't care what the record labels have to say.
00:45:15If you tell me that you want to be with me,
00:45:19we'll be together.
00:45:21We can tease each other all day.
00:45:29Until you finally admit
00:45:30that you still love me.
00:45:51You're right.
00:45:58I am like an instrument.
00:46:00The way I let you play me.
00:46:02After what you did,
00:46:03why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:05Listen to me.
00:46:07I've been trying to tell you
00:46:08I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:15Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:16Hold on.
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:17I've been telling you for months.
00:46:19The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:21A douchebag with over
00:46:23a hundred million strings.
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes
00:46:27size hole to fill
00:46:27and he could be the next big thing.
00:46:29It's not safe, Casey.
00:46:30You don't need him.
00:46:32No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:33I don't think you,
00:46:35of all people,
00:46:36get to tell me what I need.
00:46:38Casey.
00:46:39Casey.
00:46:39Casey!
00:46:42Casey has every right
00:46:44to be angry with me
00:46:45after what I did.
00:46:46I have to prove
00:46:46she can trust me again.
00:46:51Perfect timing.
00:47:01Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:02Thank you for meeting me
00:47:03on such short notice.
00:47:04Sasha generally doesn't like
00:47:05women who speak too much.
00:47:08I've been an exception for you.
00:47:09Do you always refer to yourself
00:47:11in the third person?
00:47:11I don't know what that means.
00:47:15But you want to hear
00:47:17one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:18They're a big hit online.
00:47:20I'm very excited
00:47:21about a potential partnership.
00:47:22Well,
00:47:24I heard you'd be blown away.
00:47:26Actually,
00:47:27I was hoping for a live performance
00:47:29if you don't mind.
00:47:30So many musicians out there
00:47:31faking their music with AI,
00:47:33you know?
00:47:33Of course.
00:47:34But
00:47:36you're not in a hurry.
00:47:38Why don't we toast first
00:47:39to this potential partnership?
00:47:58Shall we?
00:47:59How can I resist?
00:48:01I do love straight vodka.
00:48:04But you know what I
00:48:10actually
00:48:12love even more than that?
00:48:15What's that?
00:48:17Exposing
00:48:18asshole pervs.
00:48:20My hair!
00:48:21What the fuck?
00:48:23You really think
00:48:24you can drug me?
00:48:25And then what?
00:48:25Force me to sign you
00:48:26to read records?
00:48:28Now you know
00:48:29who you're dealing with.
00:48:31Not so fast.
00:48:33You thought you could
00:48:33just walk in here
00:48:34and demand a live performance
00:48:35from the Sasha Silver?
00:48:37Do I look
00:48:38like a little bitch to you?
00:48:39Absolutely.
00:48:40And a fraud.
00:48:44I'll be sure
00:48:45no label will ever
00:48:46sign you
00:48:47no matter how talented
00:48:48you are.
00:48:50I want me to label
00:48:51to sign me.
00:48:52Not when I get
00:48:53read records
00:48:53for myself.
00:48:54I'll be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping
00:48:59you get ready.
00:49:00The paparazzi
00:49:00will be here any minute
00:49:01to see my new mistress.
00:49:02He'll plaster our photos
00:49:03all over the tabloids.
00:49:06Everyone will see
00:49:06what a slut you are.
00:49:08How you slept
00:49:08your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's gonna have no choice
00:49:13but to hand you
00:49:15and your company
00:49:15over to me.
00:49:17You're delusional.
00:49:18Stay away from me.
00:49:20I'm fine.
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha
00:49:21that.
00:49:22Hey!
00:49:24Break your fucking hands
00:49:25off.
00:49:26I'll break your fucking hands.
00:49:28Dexter Hayes.
00:49:30Huh?
00:49:30Are you okay?
00:49:32I'm fine.
00:49:37What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:39I could sue you for that.
00:49:41I'd love to see you try,
00:49:42sweetheart.
00:49:43You're just a wash-up addict.
00:49:44And you do not have
00:49:45a leg to stand on.
00:49:47Okay?
00:49:49Okay, I'm sorry.
00:49:53Jesus.
00:49:54We could have produced
00:49:55a sick-ass record together.
00:49:57You kind of wanted
00:49:57to defend this
00:49:58used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03The name
00:50:04is Casey Wee.
00:50:06And she's the future
00:50:07of the industry
00:50:08that you want so badly
00:50:10fucking in!
00:50:12Your career is dead,
00:50:13Sasha.
00:50:14I'm not sure of that.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:36Casey, I've been telling you
00:50:37for months.
00:50:38Sasha Silver is literally-
00:50:39My business
00:50:40is none of your concern.
00:50:42If I didn't show up tonight,
00:50:44what the hell do you think
00:50:45would have happened?
00:50:46Do you have any idea
00:50:46what he could have done to you?
00:50:47He could have raped you.
00:50:48Yes!
00:50:48He could have done-
00:50:49Okay!
00:50:49I know!
00:50:51Newsflash!
00:50:52I'm not your assistant
00:50:53anymore!
00:50:55So,
00:50:55it's not your concern
00:50:56where I am
00:50:57or what I'm doing.
00:50:58Okay?
00:50:59So stop
00:51:00following me.
00:51:03The car is still
00:51:08fucking moving.
00:51:10Stop following you
00:51:11the minute that you
00:51:12stop making stupid
00:51:14fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up
00:51:17for all the danger

00:51:39to marry
00:51:39Scarlet.
00:51:42You don't fucking
00:51:42let her.
00:51:43Now you're really
00:51:44starting to piss me off.

00:53:22too risky Casey
00:53:23look I'm far from
00:53:25Dexter's biggest fan
00:53:26but that could have
00:53:26gotten real ugly

00:53:30there was also a huge

01:06:26and can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick
01:06:29yeah
01:06:32damn I guess you're gonna have to do it the old fashioned way
01:06:42that means recording the instruments live looping them
01:06:45don't listen to her
01:06:46she doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber
01:06:49and this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted
01:06:53if I didn't know any better
01:06:55I think you were trying to sabotage it

01:07:26Reed Records music equipment to work with
01:07:29Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?

01:07:54you really think your fiance is going to be able to fix this show?
01:07:58I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her
01:08:03Casey shouldn't even be here
01:08:04I can't let her expose me
01:08:06not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend
01:08:10is this part of her process? it would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music
01:08:23is this part of her process? it would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music
01:08:28is this part of her process? it would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music

01:18:26the
01:18:27Miss Reed, the whole world wants to know,
01:18:53are you the award-winning genius music producer Echo?
01:18:56I think everyone saw the broadcast and my work speaks for itself.
01:19:01You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next Echo.
01:19:09You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:15Dexter was gonna be mine! I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:19:26But you have to get in my way!
01:19:31That won't happen again!
01:19:35Dex, no!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:41No!
01:19:45Dex, Dex, stay with me!
01:19:51Oh my god!
01:19:55Hey, hey, hey!
01:19:59You've been here all night.
01:20:01You still love him, don't you?
01:20:03Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:09You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:16It doesn't matter now.
01:20:18Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:22Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:28But without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:32And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love.
01:20:38Your love.
01:20:40Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:41I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:46Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you, hmm?
01:20:51Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:53The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:20:59You know, if our CEO approves.
01:21:07Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:11Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, Princess.
01:21:22It was a close call.
01:21:36One centimeter to the right.
01:21:38He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:41If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:45Oh, hopefully, he'll recover.
01:21:47But for now, all he need is rest.
01:21:51That's it, okay?
01:21:59What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:22:01How could you do something so stupid?
01:22:05If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:22:11Never.
01:22:15Bye.
01:22:21I got you, beautiful.
01:22:25Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:27I think I have every right to be.
01:22:36Casey, I...
01:22:40I miss you.
01:22:42I miss him, too.
01:22:44But everything we've put each other through...
01:22:46Can we really be together again?
01:22:48You saved my life, and...
01:22:55I will be forever grateful.
01:22:59And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:23:01And, um, we can go our separate ways.
01:23:03We can end on a high note.
01:23:05Is that really what you want?
01:23:10To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:20Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:23:22Something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:24That horrible night when I chose Scarlet...
01:23:39I only did it because I had to.
01:23:43They forced you to choose her.
01:23:45I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:47I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:51I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:53And I knew that I'd break your heart.
01:23:55And I knew that I would lose you.
01:23:57And I...
01:23:59But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:24:07When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:24:11I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:13Me neither.
01:24:15You're my little muse.
01:24:19My pop star.
01:24:25Which...
01:24:29Reminds me...
01:24:31Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight List.
01:24:39The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:43You saved their CEO.
01:24:45You deserve it.
01:24:46You're the reason I sing.
01:24:48You're the reason I live.
01:24:50I don't want to song write or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:53You...
01:24:54You're my world, Casey.
01:24:58I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:25:00I know.
01:25:01But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:25:04I don't want to be with you for just who you are or what you have or any of that stuff.
01:25:09I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:11I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:14That's all I need.
01:25:18We do it together.
01:25:23I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:26Okay.
01:25:27I want us to do this together.
01:25:34I love you.
01:25:37I love you too.
01:25:38This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:55Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:01Yes, ma'am.
01:26:09I wrote this song with Casey Reed.
01:26:13Who is my echo, but more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:26:21So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:22I hope you enjoy.
01:26:52Yeah, ma'am.
01:26:53I've been watching the world come together.
01:26:54But I help you understand.
01:26:55That's all I need.
01:26:56Keep it up with you.
01:26:57I love you.
01:26:58I love you too.
01:27:01I love you too.
01:27:03I love you too.
01:27:04I love you too.
01:27:06I love you too.
01:27:07It's a little something.
01:27:11I love you too.
01:27:12I love you too.
01:27:14I love you too.
01:27:17I love you too.
01:27:20Was the fool who I hated
01:27:23Now I'm recreated
01:27:25Every time I look at the moon
01:27:30I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:27:33Soon you'll see
01:27:39That it's time for you and me
01:27:44There's the best so far
01:27:48Just a little
01:27:50Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:58I forget where I am
01:28:01Just a little
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:06I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah
01:28:15I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:18I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:23I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:26In the mirror of heaven
01:28:29My heart is still breathing
01:28:31Every time I remember to smile
01:28:36I imagine a world where we're together
01:28:40I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:42I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:44I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:46I don't know.
