Short filmTranscript
00:00:00My name is Casey Reed. No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar
00:00:22music empire, or that I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys. I chose to
00:00:29stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock
00:00:35star I secretly built from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his
00:00:41ghostwriter. We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:47Will you spit in my mouth?
00:00:59Dex, we're backstage. Someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you. I have no idea what you do to me, Casey, how you make me feel.
00:01:11You are my favorite song. I lose control. I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:32Good. And because you're already mine, I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight. I'm
00:01:42gonna sing the song that I wrote to you, and I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody. I'm
00:01:47gonna claim every inch of you, note by note, in front of the whole world.
00:01:54Hey, Case, um, what's with all the secret phone calls? Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:13Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:16Okay. It's time I come clean, too. Once he finishes this concert, the echo mask will come
00:02:25off, and I can finally be the real me. His echo and his Casey.
00:02:31Thank you. You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:37I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00He don't call you pretty, he knows better than that.
00:03:04I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:23And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star and my soulmate, Dexter
00:03:31Dexter Hayes!
00:03:36Wait for me, right here?
00:03:41Dexter 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.
00:03:50A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:55Fans already love us.
00:03:56Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:00Scarlet 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.
00:04:12I've got a really special one for y'all tonight.
00:04:14Hope you enjoy.
00:04:25Shit! The backing mix is corrupted!
00:04:28I can't let Dex's show get ruined.
00:04:30Echo can fix this.
00:04:34Are you here?
00:04:36I need your help.
00:04:38What the hell is she up to?
00:04:40Well, I guess the, uh, system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:48I'll be right back.
00:04:53There. Your gear from the studio!
00:04:56Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:57Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:58Dad!
00:04:59We've talked about this.
00:05:00In public, I am not your daughter.
00:05:02And 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.
00:05:10I'm telling him tonight.
00:05:12But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:14Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:20When 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!
00:05:46Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:55Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:59Play that song!
00:06:00Play that song!
00:06:02God, where's Casey?
00:06:03She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:04Play that song!
00:06:05The show is a disaster.
00:06:06The fans are waiting.
00:06:07Can you please find her?
00:06:08I need her.
00:06:09No, Dexter.
00:06:11I'm the one you need.
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's Nova?
00:06:25Are you her?
00:06:27Are you her?
00:06:31Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:40Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:46Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:54All those secret phone calls.
00:06:55Dodged questions.
00:06:57Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:00Dexter.
00:07:01I'm so sorry.
00:07:02I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:07Thanks.
00:07:15Wait.
00:07:16Didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:19And we're back.
00:07:20Well, I, uh, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:26At least I thought so.
00:07:35Get ready, Dex.
00:07:36The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:41One.
00:07:42I'm a man as I am.
00:07:47I'm a man as I am.
00:07:51I'm a man as I am.
00:07:54I'm a man as I am.
00:07:58Every time when I look, I remember the time I saw you right.
00:08:08One thing to remember by
00:08:11The time I looked into your eye
00:08:14The secret feeling began
00:08:17I know I was when I died
00:08:38I know I can see you crying
00:08:43Me Bart
00:08:47But, otherwise I still told you
00:08:51I've had a bitter feeling
00:08:53Myaches
00:08:57Myaches
00:08:59I didn't know you
00:09:03Myaches
00:09:07How 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 to announce our relationship.
00:09:37I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:51Oh my god! Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:01Oh my god! Dexie! Yes!
00:10:06Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:10:11I 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.
00:10:25It was all a lie.
00:10:28Alright, I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my heart.
00:10:35Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:43Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:45You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you, you, you, you gave me no choice.
00:11:11I gave you everything!
00:11:14I loved you! Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her, okay? I, I, I, I, I owe her, alright? I don't-
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan. What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career. She made me who I am today. Okay? So, so, so that's why.
00:11:37What are you talking about?
00:11:39Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:48You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is. You know what? I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me.
00:11:59And I feel like this is a good start.
00:12:03How could you believe her lies?
00:12:04Come on, all you do is lie.
00:12:09You know, I don't even know who you are anymore.
00:12:12Is this what you wanted all along? To be a music industry power couple? To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:22He could have had that with me.
00:12:25This is all you ever really cared about, isn't it?
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty. Just your music.
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This is my notebook.
00:12:44Full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first little platinum album.
00:12:48That's my notebook. How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius.
00:12:54And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:12:58Keep it back.
00:13:00Dexter, she cut me.
00:13:02See what has gotten into you?
00:13:04I don't... I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:07Dexy, baby. I know all about girls like her.
00:13:11They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:13:14She's taking advantage of you.
00:13:17She has been for years.
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this. Scarlet is not Echo.
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:13:26Okay? Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car, please.
00:13:37Casey.
00:13:38Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:45So, please just... just tell me the truth.
00:13:49Okay, right now. Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:54Please.
00:13:58Please.
00:14:08The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:10You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:17We're over.
00:14:19Dex.
00:14:22Goodbye.
00:14:24Forever.
00:14:38The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market.
00:14:48Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes.
00:14:53Yes.
00:14:59Dad.
00:15:01I gave Dex everything.
00:15:03I made his career, but...
00:15:05He doesn't want me.
00:15:07He never did.
00:15:09What happened, princess?
00:15:11Scarlet Hart.
00:15:13She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:16I'll come get you.
00:15:18Oh!
00:15:21Casey.
00:15:22Casey, where are you?
00:15:32It looks like Dexter's whore is awake.
00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man.
00:15:40Who are you?
00:15:42Let me go.
00:15:43Don't worry, Scarlet.
00:15:44What?
00:15:45We won't hurt you.
00:15:46We're your friends too.
00:15:48We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart.
00:15:51We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson.
00:15:55We saw you kissing Dexter backstage.
00:15:59You're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:03I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:05We were in love.
00:16:07Or I thought we were.
00:16:09We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:11The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:14is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:22Where the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room.
00:16:27Come alone.
00:16:29Choose to save Scarlet Hart and we'll spare them.
00:16:32Choose your little assistant and 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?
00:16:43Casey?
00:16:45So 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 fiance?
00:17:02Obviously not.
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:08You fucked him too?
00:17:10God.
00:17:12Our precious Dexter.
00:17:14Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:16Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:19You don't deserve to live.
00:17:21No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:24So, if Casey dies, then the truth dies with her.
00:17:28That's not true!
00:17:30First you steal my identity, now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:34You're psychotic!
00:17:35No, don't worry Casey.
00:17:37If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you and maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album.
00:17:43You're crazier than they are.
00:17:46Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:52Casey!
00:17:54Dex!
00:17:59Dex!
00:18:01Dex! Dex! Dex!
00:18:03Dex!
00:18:04Dexter!
00:18:05Dexter help me!
00:18:06They hit me and then they tied me up and now they're trying to kill me!
00:18:10Ok guys let's, let's just put the guns down.
00:18:14Ok?
00:18:15We, we can't do that Dexter.
00:18:17We're your biggest fans.
00:18:19We're doing this for you.
00:18:21Ok, well if you love me, alright, you'll put the gun down and they'll let these two go, please.
00:18:27No, that's not how this works.
00:18:29Dexie, you would be nothing without Echo.
00:18:33We're engaged now. You can't let me die.
00:18:36Dex, all the love we ever had, all the memories, all the I love yous you told me,
00:18:42did they mean anything?
00:18:44You must choose one to live.
00:18:46Will it be your future wife or your mistress?
00:18:52Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:55They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die.
00:18:59I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart.
00:19:03Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:11You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:15And you loved him?
00:19:17You leeched off him for half a decade.
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex, go 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 three,
00:19:39two,
00:19:41one.
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:45Scarlet, all right?
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.
00:20:02You told me that...
00:20:03You made your choice, Dexter Hayes.
00:20:06Now 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.
00:20:29Put the gun down!
00:20:31Put the gun down!
00:20:33Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:34Hey, drop the gun.
00:20:35Let's go!
00:20:46Let's go!
00:20:47Let's go!
00:20:47Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
00:20:50All right.
00:20:55It's gonna be okay.
00:20:56Okay?
00:20:57You left me to die!
00:21:00And for the record,
00:21:01I never needed your money.
00:21:02I was right to walk away.
00:21:05Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made.
00:21:09Look, Casey, you don't understand, all right?
00:21:11They were gonna make me...
00:21:12I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:21:17Goodbye.
00:21:22Casey, Casey.
00:21:24Hey.
00:21:24Casey, stop.
00:21:34Please, stop.
00:21:35Please, please.
00:21:36We're gonna go...
00:21:37Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:39You 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 Echo.
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:50Sure he does.
00:21:51Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes.
00:21:58Fame changed me?
00:22:01Okay.
00:22:02And what about you?
00:22:03You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time.
00:22:08I 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.
00:22:19I was trying to...
00:22:20Oh my god, that's...
00:22:46That's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:51So sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:22:55You're here now.
00:22:57Take me home.
00:22:58I was trying to...
00:23:11I'm trying to have everything you ever wanted!
00:23:18I was trying to!
00:23:19Kaysay!
00:23:20Kaysay!
00:23:27Kaysay!
00:23:28Kaysay!
00:23:29Kaysay!
00:23:30Kaysay!
00:23:31Kaysay!
00:23:32Kaysay!
00:23:33Kaysay!
00:23:34Kaysay!
00:23:35Kaysay!
00:23:36Kaysay!
00:23:37Let me explain!
00:23:38Scarlett.
00:23:39Mrs. Hayes, you should have seen it.
00:23:41I 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.
00:23:53Then 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.
00:24:05I thought Kaysay 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 errands.
00:24:24How could I be so blind?
00:24:29Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:33announcing 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.
00:25:07No, no!
00:25:09Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:14The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:17Look, guys, we have one week, all right, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:22The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:28You can't even fix a simple beat or a key.
00:25:31What's going on?
00:25:33Look, Scarlet, I just gotta ask.
00:25:36Are you really Echo?
00:25:38Are you really Echo?
00:25:45Dexy.
00:25:47Of course I am.
00:25:50It's just...
00:25:51Your new assistant.
00:25:53He's been messing...
00:25:54He's messing with my tracks.
00:25:55He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:25:58I mean, look.
00:25:59Last 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.
00:26:11Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:13It's Dexter.
00:26:14And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screwed me over like that.
00:26:20You're fired.
00:26:27See it again.
00:26:29Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:47Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:26:59We're sorry.
00:27:04You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:09Alright.
00:27:10She broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:13So why can't I do the same?
00:27:15Look what we just got.
00:27:34An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:37The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:47Look.
00:27:48I'm not interested.
00:27:49Okay.
00:27:49We have a song to finish.
00:27:50Dexter.
00:27:52You said it yourself.
00:27:53They can lay down a track in hours.
00:27:55We have to go.
00:27:56This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:00Okay, look.
00:28:04I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:08He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:10I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for a few extra bucks.
00:28:15You have to go and you have to impress him, okay?
00:28:18He could make or break our careers.
00:28:22Okay.
00:28:23I guess you're right.
00:28:24Of course I am.
00:28:26We are the industry's it couple.
00:28:29So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:28:35I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:37Her coarse, tangled hair, or her dull, crusty skin, or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:28:52I'm Echo.
00:28:53I'm the Reed heiress.
00:28:56And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:01Scarlet, I'll be here.
00:29:02Show me smaller.
00:29:03Come on, that's here.
00:29:04Come on.
00:29:05Come on.
00:29:06Hey, how does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:11We're honored.
00:29:12And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:17Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:22I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed fortune.
00:29:28Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:30I don't know.
00:29:30Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:32She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:34I bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:38Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:29:40She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:42Look, here she is now!
00:29:43No fucking way!
00:29:56No fucking way!
00:29:56Casey?
00:30:20Hey, Dex.
00:30:27Long 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?
00:30:40Ignore her.
00:30:57But instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:02You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:03All we need to do is get on their good side, and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:09She's right.
00:31:10I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a hit.
00:31:15Scarlet, 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.
00:31:41I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:44But the party's just getting started.
00:31:46I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:51Why?
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.
00:32:02And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:04Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:06I'd love to see you try.
00:32:11You jealous?
00:32:13I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:17How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:19You can dress up all you want.
00:32:25But 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?
00:32:42Probably 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.
00:32:51Hmm.
00:32:52Is that so?
00:32:54Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:32:56Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:33:02Is it you?
00:33:04How dare you?
00:33:08Careful.
00:33:09The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:12You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:15You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make
00:33:20in pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:22But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:26And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again,
00:33:30I will get you canceled so fucking hard,
00:33:32your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:34Mr. Reed, hi, Dexter Hayes.
00:33:39Thank 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, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:52Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:54Got you.
00:33:56Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face
00:33:58when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my daughter
00:34:02and the heiress to the Reed Record's fortune.
00:34:05Well, you know, sir, you may or may not have heard about the record
00:34:09that Scarlet Heart and I are working on.
00:34:12I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing
00:34:15and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:19I think we could really make something special.
00:34:21Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:24And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:28Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO,
00:34:32well, that would make me forever grateful.
00:34:36Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:38The new CEO is already here.
00:34:50Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey.
00:34:58Uh, I've been trying to call you the last few days
00:35:02and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that instead you just showed up here.
00:35:06I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone,
00:35:10for wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:12But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:17Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days.
00:35:20What, you missed me already?
00:35:21Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:25This event is invite only.
00:35:30Yeah.
00:35:30Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm going to stay.
00:35:36You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing
00:35:39but vile slander and empty accusations all night.
00:35:43If 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.
00:35:51The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:35:56You have no power here.
00:35:58Okay, guys.
00:35:59Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album.
00:36:04Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:06Oh, Dex.
00:36:08You forgot to say please.
00:36:13Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:19Ladies and gentlemen,
00:36:21it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:25Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:34But 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,
00:36:42who 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.
00:36:54It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:36:58Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:00He's going to call us on stage.

01:08:28Is this part of her process?
01:08:34It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:37Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:01Come on, Echo. Show them your talent. Keep going.
01:09:04Get off the stage. You're ruining the UMAs.
01:09:11All right, look. It's done.
01:09:15You're really going to give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:18You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:21Yeah, I am. That whole career that I fought for for however how many years? Yeah.
01:09:29Because you know what?
01:09:30Someone that I was close to once told me that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:09:38And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig as a personal assistant for the new CEO of Reed Records.
01:09:45Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes. Your entire life's work is on the line.
01:09:51Mom, you heard the track, okay? There's no saving the song. Now, it's over. It's over.
01:09:57Well, I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:10:16No, no, there's no, there's, there's no other...
01:10:20Hey!
01:10:21It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:10:24What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:33Mom, mom, stop.
01:10:35You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:38I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down as the worst performer in UMA history.
01:10:43If I couldn't mix a whole live track, what makes you think you could?
01:10:47For one, I know what I'm doing.
01:10:49And if you don't, will you step down as Reed Records CEO if you fail?
01:10:56Happily.
01:10:57Hmm.
01:11:00Everyone, we're about to watch the Reed Records CEO dig her own grave.
01:11:04It seems like Echo is having technical difficulties with her track.
01:11:09Since we're live, let's make something new.
01:11:12Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice.
01:11:16Right now.
01:11:17Right now.
01:11:17I am not the kind for a show.
01:11:31This is not a one-time thing.
01:11:35Lights are low, but I still will.
01:11:39This morning's got a sting.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:44Now let's make a hit.
01:11:56Let's fucking go!
01:11:57Ha ha ha!
01:11:58Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:16I mean, you produced this, right?
01:12:18So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:19I can't.
01:12:21I don't have much.
01:12:21You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent.
01:12:26I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:31Since when is Casey Reed a musical genius?
01:12:34That sounds...
01:12:35It's familiar.
01:12:37I mean, you are not the kind for a show.
01:12:42This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop!
01:12:46Stop it!
01:12:46Stop it!
01:12:46This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:58Casey.
01:13:00You're Echo.
01:13:02Does this mean Casey Reed is Echo?
01:13:06This is my song.
01:13:07She just ripped it off.
01:13:09Who's stealing now, Scarlett?
01:13:10Don't listen to her!
01:13:14I'm Echo!
01:13:17I didn't even make that version.
01:13:19I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:13:22Go fix this.
01:13:26Now everyone knows the truth.
01:13:28She's the one that saved the song.
01:13:34No, that was me.
01:13:36I already did all the work.
01:13:37She's just taking the credit.
01:13:39I had to mix the track live, Dexter.
01:13:42So that makes it my intellectual property.
01:13:45You're welcome to put it on your next album, but you're going to have to pay me for it.
01:13:49Where do I sign?
01:13:50I don't think you could afford my fee.
01:13:53I think you might just be surprised.
01:13:56$200 million.
01:13:57$200 million for one song?
01:14:01That's more than our entire album deal.
01:14:03Are you insane?
01:14:04And I want my name to be credited.
01:14:08Bad deal, Miss Reed.
01:14:11And one last thing.
01:14:13I want a public apology from Scarlett Hart and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:18That's ridiculous!
01:14:19Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:22I mean, you don't have to.
01:14:23I could just go ahead and leave and then Scarlett could finish the album.
01:14:26And Dexter's career could crash and burn.
01:14:28So, what will it be?
01:14:30The clock is ticking.
01:14:36I was wrong about you.
01:14:40You saved Dexter's song.
01:14:44I'm sorry.
01:14:47And you?
01:14:49Do it.
01:14:50Apologize to her.
01:14:52That bitch!
01:14:52Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:14:55She ruined everything.
01:14:57Come on, let's hear it.
01:14:58Tell the world the truth.
01:14:59Scarlett.
01:15:00Fine!
01:15:01I'm not Echo.
01:15:03I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:06They are happy!
01:15:07I was wrong about you.
01:15:12You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:16I'm sorry.
01:15:20And you?
01:15:21Do it.
01:15:23Apologize to her.
01:15:24That bitch!
01:15:25Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:27She ruined everything.
01:15:29Come on, let's hear it.
01:15:30Tell the world the truth.
01:15:31Scarlett.
01:15:33Fine.
01:15:34I'm not Echo.
01:15:35I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:38They are happy?
01:15:42They are happy?
01:15:45Wait.
01:15:46That's not what I really meant.
01:15:48Dexter.
01:15:50She manipulated me.
01:15:51You're still my fiance.
01:15:52You believe me?
01:15:53Scarlett, you are exactly what we all see.
01:15:56You fucking bought and you're a damn liar.
01:15:57Cassie is the one who built my career.
01:16:02Hell, she's the one who saved the damn song.
01:16:05She's the only one who ever cared about me or loved me.
01:16:10Our engagement is off.
01:16:13And so is the record.
01:16:13Please don't cancel the album.
01:16:37The album?
01:16:39Terminating your contract.
01:16:40I'm blacklisting you from the industry.
01:16:43Tour is over.
01:16:43You got yourself a deal case.
01:16:59Hit it.
01:17:03If we're not here for long
01:17:09Tell me where would we belong
01:17:15My back is fast against the wall
01:17:21I need you to know I'm not afraid to fall
01:17:26Your name's on fire in my wings
01:17:33It's burning for my chains
01:17:36It's burning for my chains
01:17:37Who are you to tell me why
01:17:41Who am I to look like
01:17:47This mirror shows a thousand faces
01:17:52But none of them can bow
01:17:56But none of them can bow
01:17:58I'm a small to see you
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.
01:19:00You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:19:08You 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 had to get in my way.
01:19:30That won't happen again.
01:19:34Kersi!
01:19:35Dex, no!
01:19:36No!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:38No!
01:19:47Dex! Dex, stay with me!
01:19:51Oh my god!
01:19:52Hey, hey, hey. You've been here all night. You still love him, don't you?
01:20:03Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:10You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:17It doesn't matter now. Things 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. Your love.
01:20:39Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it. I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:45Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you. Hmm? Maybe 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.
01:21:00You know, if our CEO approves.
01:21:08Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:15Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, Princess.
01:21:35It was a close call. One centimeter to the right. He 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.
01:21:50That's it. Okay? Okay.
01:21:58What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:22:02How could you do something so stupid?
01:22:06If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:22:12Never.
01:22:15Bye.
01:22:21My God, you're beautiful.
01:22:26Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:29I think I have every right to be.
01:22:32Casey, I...
01:22:41I miss you.
01:22:42I miss him, too.
01:22:44But everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:49You saved my life, and...
01:22:54I will be forever grateful.
01:22:56And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:23:02And, um, we can go our separate ways.
01:23:04We can end on a high note.
01:23:05No.
01:23:05Listen.
01:23:06No.
01:23:09Is that really what you want?
01:23:11To 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.
01:23:41I only did it because I had to.
01:23:44They forced you to choose her.
01:23:45I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:48I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:51I'd choose you a million times over, and I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew
01:23:55that I would lose you, and 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.
01:24:14Me neither.
01:24:15You're my little muse.
01:24:19You're my little muse.
01:24:23My pop star.
01:24:28Which reminds me...
01:24:33Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline The Wild Life List.
01:24:38The Wild Life Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:42You saved their CEO.
01:24:44You deserve it.
01:24:45You're the reason I sing.
01:24:47You're the reason I live.
01:24:49I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:52You...
01:24:53You're my world, Casey.
01:24:57I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:59I know.
01:25:00But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:25:02I don't want to be with you for just who you are, or what you have, or any of that stuff.
01:25:08I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:10I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:13That's all I need.
01:25:15We do it together.
01:25:18I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:23Okay.
01:25:24I want us to do this together.
01:25:33I love you.
01:25:35I love you, too.
01:25:37This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:52Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:57Yes, ma'am.
01:25:59I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo, but more importantly, she is undoubtedly
01:26:17the love of my life.
01:26:21So I hope you enjoy.
01:26:29Thank you very much.
01:26:46It will be time I remember to smile
01:26:52I imagine a world where together
01:26:55This goes on
01:27:11Stuff in the stockings
01:27:14But I am still walking
01:27:16Wrong to you
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
01:27:43Is 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
01:28:00Just a little
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:05I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:16I'm taking and talking
01:28:20But I will be watching
01:28:22Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:28:25Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:28:27The mirror in heaven
01:28:29My heart is still beating
