Short filmTranscript
00:00:00The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:00:08No one knows I'm Echo, the world-famous music producer,
00:00:12because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:16the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:19He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:00:24Oh my god, Dexy, yes!
00:00:26It was all a lie.
00:00:28I owe her.
00:00:29These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:00:32This is Echo's novel.
00:00:33She stole him, and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:00:37I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:00:40Goodbye.
00:00:41I'm Echo, and I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:00:46Dexter was gonna be mine.
00:00:48I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world.
00:00:51Casey, I still miss you.
00:00:52Forget where I am, just a little.
00:01:03Hold out!
00:01:06Get out of the box!
00:01:09Get out of the box!
00:01:10Get out of the box!
00:01:11Get out of the box!
00:01:12Get out of the box!
00:01:14Get out of the box!
00:01:22I'm the music empire.
00:01:23Or that I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:01:28I chose to stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have.
00:01:33Dexter Hayes, the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:01:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:01:42We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:01:47Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:59Dex, we're backstage.
00:02:01Someone might see us.
00:02:05I am so done hiding you.
00:02:08I have no idea what you do to me, Casey.
00:02:10How you make me feel.
00:02:12You are my favorite song.
00:02:20I lose control.
00:02:22My little moon.
00:02:26I want you, Dex.
00:02:29I need you.
00:02:32Good.
00:02:35And because you're already mine.
00:02:39I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:02:42I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:02:44And I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:02:47I'm going to claim every interview.
00:02:50Note by note.
00:02:51In front of the whole world.
00:03:08Hey, Case, um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:03:12Just, what are you hiding?
00:03:15Nothing.
00:03:15It's just work stuff.
00:03:18Okay.
00:03:20It's time I come clean, too.
00:03:23Once he finishes this concert, the Echo mask will come off.
00:03:26And I can finally be the real me.
00:03:29His Echo and his Casey.
00:03:34You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:03:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:00I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:03I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:09I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:12I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:14I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:15I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:17I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:17I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:18I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:19I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:20I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:21I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:21I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:04:24And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes!
00:04:36Wait for me, right here?
00:04:41Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts, but I'll never lock him down as long as
00:04:46he's in bed with his grumpy assistant.
00:04:49A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:04:55Fans already love us. Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:05:00Scarlet Heart. Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen.
00:05:04She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:05:07Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:05:12I've got a really special one for y'all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:05:15Don't get it! Let's go!
00:05:25Shit! The backing mix is corrupted!
00:05:28I can't let Dexter's show get ruined. Echo can fix this.
00:05:35Are you here? I need your help.
00:05:39What the hell is she up to?
00:05:44Well, I guess the, uh, system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so I'll be right back.
00:05:54There. Your gear from the studio.
00:05:57Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:05:59Dad, we've talked about this. In public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo.
00:06:04But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him. You made him the star he is.
00:06:10I'm telling him tonight. But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:06:15Oh, that's my girl.
00:06:19When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:06:42Oh, my God. These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs. Is Casey Echo?
00:06:47Oh, my God.
00:06:57Time to save Dex's concert.
00:06:59Play that song! Play that song!
00:07:02God, where's Casey? She said she'd stay right here.
00:07:05The show is a disaster. The fans are waiting. Can you please find her? I need her.
00:07:09No, Dexter.
00:07:11I'm the one you need.
00:07:12What?
00:07:21Mrs. Echo's not?
00:07:25Are you her? Are you her?
00:07:32Listen, can you please save this song?
00:07:35I already did.
00:07:39Wait. Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:07:44Well, Casey has been hiding another man.
00:07:54All those secret phone calls, dodged questions. Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:08:00Dexter, I'm so sorry. I would never, never do this to you.
00:08:07Thanks.
00:08:16Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:08:19Uh, and we're back. Well, I, uh, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:08:26At least I thought so.
00:08:35Get ready, Dex.
00:08:37The next, your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:08:45I'm a man.
00:08:51I'm a man.
00:08:52I'm a man.
00:08:52I'm a man.
00:08:53I'm a man.
00:08:54I'm a man.
00:08:56I'm a man.
00:08:57I'm a man.
00:08:58I'm a man.
00:09:00I'm a man.
00:09:03Every time when I look, I remember the time I saw you, I'm a man.
00:09:11Every time I looked into your eye, a secret feeling again, I know I was when I died.
00:09:22I'm a man.
00:09:26I'm a man.
00:10:11How could Casey do this to me?
00:10:18Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:10:32He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:10:37I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:10:51Oh my god! Dexie!
00:10:54Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:10:57Yes!
00:10:58Yes!
00:11:02Oh my god! Dexie!
00:11:04Yes!
00:11:06Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:11:11I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me.
00:11:15No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet, but she made my career, and Casey betrayed me.
00:11:25It was all a lie.
00:11:29All right, I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my
00:11:35heart.
00:11:43Hey, uh, Casey.
00:11:55You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on
00:12:05Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:12:07Oh my god, Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:12:11I gave you everything.
00:12:14I loved you. Do you love her?
00:12:18I owe her.
00:12:19Oh.
00:12:20Okay? I owe her, all right? I don't...
00:12:23You owe her?
00:12:25Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan. What has she ever done for you?
00:12:30Scarlet produced my career. She made me who I am today. Okay? So, so, so that's why.
00:12:37What are you talking about?
00:12:41Scarlet is Echo.
00:12:48You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:12:52Well, I know she is. You know what? I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done
00:12:58for me.
00:12:59And I feel like this is a good start.
00:13:03How could you believe her lies?
00:13:05Come on, all you do is lie.
00:13:10You know, I don't even know who you are anymore.
00:13:13Is this what you wanted all along? To be a music industry power couple?
00:13:19To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:13:22He could have had that with me.
00:13:25This is all you ever really cared about.
00:13:29Isn't it?
00:13:32Not loyalty.
00:13:34Just...
00:13:35Your music.
00:13:37What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:13:42This is my notebook, full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first triple platinum album.
00:13:49That's my notebook.
00:13:51How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:13:53I'm a musical genius.
00:13:55And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:13:59Give it back.
00:14:00Dexter, she cut me.
00:14:03See what has gotten into you?
00:14:05I don't...
00:14:05I don't know who you are anymore.
00:14:08Dexy, baby.
00:14:09I know all about girls like her.
00:14:12They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:14:15She's taking advantage of you.
00:14:18She has been for years.
00:14:20Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this.
00:14:23Scarlet is not Echo.
00:14:25Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:14:27Okay?
00:14:27Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:14:32Go wait in the car.
00:14:33Please.
00:14:38Casey.
00:14:44Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:14:46So please just...
00:14:48Just tell me the truth.
00:14:49Okay, right now.
00:14:51Or we'll lose us forever.
00:14:58Please.
00:14:59Please.
00:15:08The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:15:10You don't trust me anyway.
00:15:17We're over.
00:15:20Dex.
00:15:23Goodbye.
00:15:24Forever.
00:15:44The hottest rock star on the planet
00:15:47is officially off the market.
00:15:49Dexter Hayes popped the question to up-and-coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight,
00:15:53and she said yes.
00:15:59Dad.
00:16:01I gave Dex everything.
00:16:04I made his career, but...
00:16:06He doesn't want me.
00:16:08He never did.

00:24:41Scarlett.
00:24:42Mrs. Hayes.
00:24:43You should have seen it. I almost died.
00:24:45And that desperate skank cheated
00:24:48on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:24:50I always knew
00:24:51she was a gold digger.
00:24:53She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:24:55Then when that failed, she went after
00:24:57the CEO of the biggest music
00:24:59label in the world.
00:25:01Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:25:03She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:25:06All she ever cared about was money
00:25:07and power.
00:25:08I thought Kaysay loved me.
00:25:10But the whole time, she was in bed with the
00:25:13CEO of Reed Records.
00:25:20She's been lying to you.
00:25:20Forget him, Princess.
00:25:21Hmm?
00:25:22You are much too talented to be running some
00:25:25rockstar errands.
00:25:27How could I be so blind?
00:25:31Three days from now,
00:25:33at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:25:35announcing you as the new CEO
00:25:37of Reed Records.
00:25:38And my daughter,
00:25:40the heiress to my empire.
00:25:42It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:25:53My back is pressed.
00:26:01My back is pressed.
00:26:08My back is pressed.
00:26:17The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:26:20Look guys,
00:26:21we have one week,
00:26:22alright, to finish this song
00:26:24before the release.
00:26:25The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix
00:26:28in hours.
00:26:29You can't even fix a simple beat?
00:26:32Or a key?
00:26:34What's going on?
00:26:35Look, Scarlet,
00:26:36I just gotta ask.
00:26:38Are you really, Echo?
00:26:43Are you really, Echo?
00:26:47Dexy.
00:26:49Of course I am.
00:26:52It's just,
00:26:53your new assistant.
00:26:55He's been messing,
00:26:56he's messing with my tracks.
00:26:57He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:27:00I mean, look.
00:27:03Last saved by Max.
00:27:05Yeah, that's because you don't know how to-
00:27:07Okay, you know what?
00:27:08Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:27:13Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:27:15It's, it's dexter.
00:27:16And, I'm sorry, but, uh,
00:27:18my last assistant would've never screwed me over like that.
00:27:22You're fired.
00:27:29See it again.
00:27:45Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:27:49Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:28:05We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:28:11Alright, she broke my heart, and she moved on.
00:28:14So, why can't I do the same?
00:28:34Look what we just got.
00:28:36An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:28:39The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:28:49Look, I'm not interested.
00:28:51Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:28:52Dexter.
00:28:54You said it yourself, they can lay down a track in hours.
00:28:57We have to go.
00:28:58This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:29:04Okay, look.
00:29:06I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:29:10He's a billionaire record executive.
00:29:12I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for
00:29:16a few extra bucks.
00:29:17You have to go, and you have to impress him, okay?
00:29:20He could make or break our careers.
00:29:24Okay, I guess you're right.
00:29:26Of course I am.
00:29:28We are the industry's it couple.
00:29:31So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:29:37I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:29:39Her coarse, tangled hair?
00:29:44Her dull, crusty skin?
00:29:47Or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:29:54I'm Echo.
00:29:55I'm the Reed heiress.
00:29:57And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:30:08How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:30:13We're honored.
00:30:14And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:30:18Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:30:23I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter.
00:30:27The heiress to the Reed orchid.
00:30:29Do you think she's gonna be the new CEO?
00:30:31I don't know. Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:30:34She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:30:36I'll bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:30:39Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:30:41She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:30:43Look! Here she is now!
00:30:56No fucking way!
00:31:16No fucking way!
00:31:21Casey?
00:31:25Casey?
00:31:27Hey Dex.
00:31:28Long time no see.
00:31:32Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:31:35I should be happy walking away from him.
00:31:38So...
00:31:39Why does my heart still ache?
00:31:56Ignore her.
00:31:57And instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:32:02You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:32:05All we need to do is get on their good side and our album will go straight to number one.
00:32:10She's right.
00:32:11I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a hit.
00:32:32I don't want her to miss the best.
00:32:32Scarlet, what a terrible surprise.
00:32:35I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy.
00:32:38But this party is for the elite of the music industry only I suggest you wait on the street corner
00:32:43with the other hookers
00:32:45But the party's just getting started. I can't miss the big announcement
00:32:52Why
00:32:53So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed records, too
00:32:56I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed
00:32:59So don't expect him to look at you twice and don't distract Dexter tonight leave or I will have security
00:33:06escort you out
00:33:07I'd love to see you try
00:33:13Jealous I
00:33:14Loved him and those feelings don't just go away. How could she change his mind so easily?
00:33:21You can dress up all you want
00:33:25But you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl. I thought she was someone important
00:33:32She's just a desperate assistant playing dress-up
00:33:36Imagine getting dragged by these scarlet hard. I would never emotionally recover
00:33:40Where do you think she got the jewels though?
00:33:42Probably out whoring herself to old men just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry
00:33:49Hmm, they got that right. Hmm
00:33:52Is that so?
00:33:54Tell me something scarlet. Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:34:02Is it you?
00:34:04How dare you?
00:34:08Oh
00:34:09The new CEO might be watching
00:34:11Yeah
00:34:12You think you're hot shit just because you're the real echo
00:34:15You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make in pay
00:34:20-by-the-hour hotel rooms
00:34:22But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star
00:34:25And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again
00:34:30I will get you canceled so fucking hard your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public
00:34:37Mr. Reed, hi, Dexter Hayes. Thank you so much for the invite
00:34:41Um, you've always been a true hero of mine
00:34:44Well, I would really love to put that, um
00:34:47Well, that incident with my assistant behind us
00:34:51Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can
00:34:53Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face
00:34:58When he realizes the assistant he rejected is my daughter
00:35:02Yeah, the heiress to the Reed record's fortune
00:35:05Well, you know, sir, um, well, you may or may not have heard about, uh, the record that Scarlet Heart
00:35:10and I are, uh, working on
00:35:11I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing
00:35:15And your musical genius over the last many decades, I think we could really make something special
00:35:21Well, you make a compelling point
00:35:24And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record
00:35:28Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with, uh, the new CEO
00:35:32I, I, well, that would make me forever, forever grateful
00:35:36Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:35:38The new CEO is already here
00:35:51Casey
00:35:53Casey
00:35:53Casey
00:35:55Casey
00:35:55Casey
00:35:58Uh, I've, I've been trying to call you the last few days
00:36:01And, well, I guess I'm just surprised that instead you just showed up here
00:36:05I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again
00:36:11But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction
00:36:16Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days
00:36:19What, you missed me already?
00:36:21Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:36:24This event is invite only
00:36:29Yeah
00:36:30Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay
00:36:35You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:36:42night
00:36:42If anyone needs to go, it should be her
00:36:45Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now
00:36:50Yeah, right
00:36:51The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO
00:36:55You have no power here
00:36:57Okay, guys
00:36:58I, Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album
00:37:03Can we have this conversation later?
00:37:05Aw, Dex
00:37:08You forgot to say please
00:37:12Wait, Casey, what, what
00:37:19Ladies and gentlemen
00:37:21It's time to announce tonight's special guest
00:37:27Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world
00:37:33But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company
00:37:38Someone who grew up listening to me play piano
00:37:41Who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name on one of them
00:37:46Because she never wanted to gain fame
00:37:49Through mine
00:37:51No more secrets, Dexter Hayes
00:37:53It's time you finally learned who you really rejected
00:37:57Mr. Reed is looking right at us
00:38:00He's gonna call us on stage
00:38:02Alright, this is it
00:38:03He's gonna announce that he's signed us to Reed Records
00:38:05I want to introduce
00:38:08The heir to my billion dollar music empire
00:38:11And the new CEO of Reed Records
00:38:14My princess
00:38:16And the light of my life
00:38:18My daughter
00:38:20Casey Reed
00:38:25What?
00:38:31No
00:38:55That's the Reed heiress?
00:38:57Holy shit!
00:38:58She's not a sugar baby
00:38:59She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty
00:39:03Scarlet Heart is delusional
00:39:04Insultive
00:39:05the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:39:08She just committed career suicide.
00:39:11Mr. Reed, your gift for the lady of the hour.
00:39:15That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:39:18Dad, this is too much.
00:39:20There was something from your old man,
00:39:22and now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:39:25This cannot be happening.
00:39:27She's a nobody!
00:39:31I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me,
00:39:33but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:39:36Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:39:38He was her father.
00:39:40This whole time she was with me for love, not fame.
00:39:43She tried to tell me the truth, and instead of trusting her,
00:39:46I left her for another woman.
00:39:48How could I be so blind?
00:39:56What suits you?
00:39:59The guitar and CEO title.
00:40:03Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:40:06Casey, look, I just...
00:40:14I just...
00:40:19I still miss you.
00:40:29Ah!
00:40:31Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:40:34Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt,
00:40:40but I mean, you of all people should know.
00:40:42Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:40:44If you just let me explain, I don't know.
00:40:45Explain what, Dexter?
00:40:47Why you want me back?
00:40:48After finding out I'm your boss?
00:40:52Or leaving me for Echo?
00:40:56No, no, look.
00:40:57That's not why I'm here.
00:40:58If you just let me tell you, I...
00:41:01I mean, come on, Casey.
00:41:02I mean, you gotta understand.
00:41:04You're the one who lied to me.
00:41:06I lied?
00:41:06Yeah.
00:41:07And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet
00:41:09after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:41:11I didn't want any of that to happen.
00:41:13You have to believe me, please.
00:41:15I was just trying to...
00:41:17Look, I...
00:41:19Just tell me one thing.
00:41:20I guess, why are you here?
00:41:22Are you here just...
00:41:22Is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:41:25Tank my career?
00:41:28Oh, tank your career.
00:41:30I made his career.
00:41:33I loved you, Dexter.
00:41:36You might have found out who my father is today,
00:41:38but you still have no idea who I am.
00:41:41Wait...
00:41:45This...
00:41:45This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:41:49Why...
00:41:50You left...
00:41:51Me...
00:41:52For dead.
00:41:53Sucked up to my dad.
00:41:55Threw me to the curb...
00:41:58For the fame.
00:41:59The fortune.
00:42:00The fans.
00:42:01No, no, please.
00:42:02No, no, no.
00:42:02Actually, I think...
00:42:04It's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:42:08Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:42:13I hope everyone is having fun.
00:42:16Reed Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes
00:42:20and dropping him as an artist.
00:42:27Effective immediately.
00:42:29Oh, my God!
00:42:30Oh, my God!
00:42:30Oh, my God!
00:42:31Oh, my God!
00:42:34You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was,
00:42:40because if I didn't, I might not have ever found out
00:42:42that you don't really love me for me.
00:42:44Casey, none of that is true, okay?
00:42:46None of this.
00:42:46I don't care about that.
00:42:47I've always loved you.
00:42:49Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:42:51She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby
00:42:55with no real talent.
00:42:57Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:58She can produce...
00:42:59Wait, wait, Casey!
00:43:00She can get you to the top of the charts
00:43:02with or without Reed Records.
00:43:04Dexter, you don't need her.
00:43:06She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:43:09Okay, Mom, Mom!
00:43:10Stop!
00:43:11You're my mom, not my manager, all right?
00:43:15I'm done talking about this.
00:43:36I've known you for years
00:43:42I thought you'd stay the same
00:43:46All of those years
00:44:03I'm still missing you
00:44:08I'm still
00:44:10I'm still
00:44:13I'm still missing you
00:44:40I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:44:43You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:44:45I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:44:49Casey's wrong about me.
00:44:50I never gave up on us.
00:44:52She's got another truth.
00:44:54I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex.
00:45:04Fine.
00:45:06Let's not talk.
00:45:15What's wrong?
00:45:17Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied?
00:45:21I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:45:30Not anymore.
00:45:31I'm your former boss now.
00:45:34In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:45:40I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:45:43I don't give a shit about my career.
00:45:44I just want you.
00:45:45And I know that you want me too.
00:45:48You don't act like you've forgotten what we had.
00:45:54I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:46:00You're a lot like an instrument.
00:46:03But you tremble every time we touch.
00:46:11I don't care about the fans.
00:46:13I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:46:14I don't care what the rec labels have to say.
00:46:16If you tell me that you want to be with me,
00:46:21we'll be together.
00:46:26We can tease each other all day.
00:46:29Until you finally admit that you still love me.
00:46:58You're right.
00:46:59I am like an instrument.
00:47:00The way I let you play me.
00:47:02After what you did, why would I trust you ever again?
00:47:06Listen to me.
00:47:07I've been trying to tell you.
00:47:09I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:47:11Hello?
00:47:13Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:47:16Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on.
00:47:17Sasha Silver?
00:47:18I've been telling you for months.
00:47:19The guy's a douchebag.
00:47:22A douchebag with over a hundred million streams.
00:47:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hole to fill
00:47:28and he could be the next big thing.
00:47:29It's not safe, Casey.
00:47:31You don't need him.
00:47:32He'll hurt you.
00:47:33No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:47:34I don't think you, of all people,
00:47:36get to tell me what I need.
00:47:38Casey.
00:47:39Casey.
00:47:40Casey has every right to be angry with me after what I did.
00:47:46I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:47:55Oh.
00:47:56Oh.
00:48:00Perfect timing.
00:48:01Make yourself comfortable.
00:48:02Thank you for meeting me on self-short notice.
00:48:04Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:48:08I've made an exception for you.
00:48:09Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:48:13I don't know what that means.
00:48:15But, you want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:48:18They're a big hit online.
00:48:20I'm very excited about a potential partnership.
00:48:22Well, hired to be blown away.
00:48:27Actually, I was hoping for a live performance if you don't mind.
00:48:30So many musicians out there faking their music with AI, you know?
00:48:33Of course.
00:48:37But, you're not in a hurry.
00:48:39Why don't we toast first to this potential partnership?
00:48:58Shall we?
00:48:59How can I resist?
00:49:01I do love straight vodka.
00:49:06Mmm.
00:49:08But, you know what I...
00:49:12Actually...
00:49:12Love even more than that?
00:49:15What's that?
00:49:17Exposing asshole pervs.
00:49:19My hair!
00:49:21What the fuck?
00:49:23You really think you can drug me?
00:49:25And then what?
00:49:25Force me to sign you to read records?
00:49:28Now you know who you're dealing with.
00:49:31Not so fast.
00:49:33You thought you could just walk in here and demand a live performance from THE Sasha Silver?
00:49:37Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:49:40Absolutely. And a fraud.
00:49:44I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:49:50I want you to label to sign me.
00:49:52Not when I get read records.
00:49:54Or myself.
00:49:57Don't be shy, Casey.
00:49:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:50:00The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:50:02He'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:50:05Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:50:07How you slept your way to the top.
00:50:10Your poor father.
00:50:12He's gonna have no choice.
00:50:13But to hand you and your company over to me.
00:50:16You're delusional! Stay away from me!
00:50:20Be honest. You don't tell Sasha.
00:50:21Hey!
00:50:23Get your fucking hands off me!
00:50:26I'll break your fucking hands!
00:50:28Are you okay?
00:50:31I'm fine.
00:50:36What the fuck, Hayes?
00:50:38I could sue you for that.
00:50:40I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:50:42You're just a wash-up addict.
00:50:44And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:50:46Okay?
00:50:51Okay, I'm sorry.
00:50:52Jesus.
00:50:54We could have produced a sick-ass record together.
00:50:56You kinda wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:51:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:51:03Her name is Casey Wee.
00:51:06And she's the future of the industry that you want so badly fucking in!
00:51:11Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:51:14I'm not sure of that.
00:51:16Let's go.
00:51:24Let's go.
00:51:28Give me your hand.
00:51:35Casey, I've been telling you for months, Sasha Silver is literally-
00:51:39Your business is none of your concern.
00:51:41If I didn't show up tonight, what the hell do you think would have happened?
00:51:45Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:51:46He could have raped you.
00:51:47He could have-
00:51:48Yes! Okay!
00:51:49I know!
00:51:50Newsflash!
00:51:51I'm not your assistant!
00:51:52I'm not your assistant!
00:51:53Anymore!
00:51:54So, it's not your concern, where I am, or what I'm doing.
00:51:58Okay?
00:51:58So stop...
00:52:01Following me.
00:52:06The car is still fucking moving.
00:52:09I'll stop following you the minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:52:15And when I've made up for all the danger I put her in.
00:52:20You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:52:26Won't your fiance be jealous?
00:52:33I've been trying to tell you for weeks I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:52:40You don't fucking listen.
00:52:42Now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:52:45Isn't that the point?
00:52:48I don't know.
00:52:49I don't know.
00:52:53I don't know.
00:52:56So...
00:52:57What am I supposed to do?
00:53:00Pretend she doesn't exist and be the pop star's secret side piece again?
00:53:08I should push him away, but I can't deny how much I miss his touch.
00:53:13You were never the side piece.
00:53:16And you know it.
00:53:27Boss! I have news!
00:53:30Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:53:35Please, stop following me.
00:53:40Or else it's gonna get harder and harder to walk away.
00:53:52Great timing.
00:53:54As always.
00:53:55Why are you even here?
00:53:57I've done what you asked.
00:53:58News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence and drug abuse have been leaked to the press.
00:54:02No label, studio, or brand will go anywhere near.
00:54:04His net worth plummeted to zero.
00:54:06Good.
00:54:08Buy all the rights to his music.
00:54:11I'm gonna give that to Casey as a gift.
00:54:18I heard what happened with Sasha.
00:54:20Now that was way too risky, Casey.
00:54:22Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan.
00:54:24But that could have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:54:27I could have handled Sasha.
00:54:29There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:54:31All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry had out for everyone to see.
00:54:35He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:54:37Cancelled.
00:54:37Who took him down?
00:54:40Dexter Hayes.
00:54:45He even bought the rights to Sasha's music.
00:54:48He can't sing anything anywhere or get sued to hell and back.
00:54:53Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:54:55For me?
00:54:56Maybe.
00:54:57He's not as bad as I thought.
00:55:00Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life.
00:55:07The world famous music producer Echo is set to finally reveal their identity at the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:55:14night.
00:55:16Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:55:17She's trying to convince the world she's Echo before it can expose her lies.
00:55:21She can't keep up the act forever.
00:55:23Sooner or later Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune.
00:55:27Much less produce a hit track.
00:55:29Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo.
00:55:31She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be a genius
00:55:37producer.
00:55:38I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it.
00:55:42I think it's time the world finds out who the real Echo is.
00:55:50You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:55:53They've invited me every year and I've always refused.
00:55:55I've let this scam go on long enough.
00:55:58It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart.
00:56:01The world? Or Dexter?
00:56:06This isn't about him.
00:56:10He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet.
00:56:12Well, my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world.
00:56:16But if you're going to go as Echo, oh, you're going to do it right.
00:56:20With the best equipment money can buy.
00:56:22Huh?
00:56:25I want people to see my princess for the queen that she is.
00:56:32You're the best, Dad.
00:56:46Mrs. Hayes!
00:56:48It's so good to see you again.
00:56:52How's Dexter?
00:56:53Engaged.
00:56:54Yes.
00:56:55My future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow.
00:57:00And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion.
00:57:03So none of these mass-produced guitars.
00:57:06She's a musical genius.
00:57:08We need something one of a kind, just like her.
00:57:11Of course.
00:57:12I have the perfect gift for her.
00:57:14A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:57:17A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:57:23Please don't touch that.
00:57:25Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele.
00:57:28Ugh.
00:57:29It's you.
00:57:30Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here.
00:57:34Excuse me?
00:57:36You're disturbing our VIP customers.
00:57:39I have to ask you to leave.
00:57:40Now.
00:57:45I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
00:57:49I have just as much of a right to be here as you.
00:57:52Because of your Nepo baby connections, we all know money can't buy talent.
00:57:56Hmm.
00:57:58Tell that to Scarlett.
00:57:59Excuse me?
00:58:01I am Dexter Hayes' fiancee and creative collaborator.
00:58:05And you don't really know anything about music.
00:58:08Yeah.
00:58:09You're right.
00:58:11In that case.
00:58:12You should have this.
00:58:20No!
00:58:21No!
00:58:25Oh my God!
00:58:27What?
00:58:32Oops.
00:58:33Slipped out of my hands.
00:58:35My bad.
00:58:37Are you insane?
00:58:39You just destroyed a million dollar guitar.
00:58:42Security!
00:58:43Take this woman away!
00:58:45Hold on just one second.
00:58:47Dexter Hayes?
00:58:48Oh my God.
00:58:51I need to speak to the owner about an offer.
00:58:53You think you can sell that up for me?
00:58:55Yes.
00:58:55Of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:58:59Just kidding.
00:59:02It's all yours now.
00:59:11Scarlett.
00:59:12Ignore this wannabe musician.
00:59:15We'll find a better option.
00:59:18Mmm.
00:59:22Like this one.
00:59:24Beyonce used this on her last album.
00:59:27This instrument is worthy of Echo, the genius producer.
00:59:32Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:59:34Actually, actually, this guitar is no longer available.
00:59:38In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner.
00:59:43I'm gonna just...
00:59:46My apologies.
00:59:47My apologies.
00:59:47Apologies.
00:59:48No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:59:49We saw it first.
00:59:52Look, look.
00:59:52We just want the one guitar.
00:59:54I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement.
00:59:56You can pay all you want for the guitar, but it's not gonna stop Scarlett from choking on the stage.
01:00:05How dare you, you little bitch!
01:00:13That's enough.
01:00:17Hi, Dexter.
01:00:19Hi, Dexter.
01:00:21Are you okay?
01:00:23Dexter?
01:00:24She just insulted your Beyonce.
01:00:27You need to do something.
01:00:28Ma, do you really want to have a conversation right here and now about the current status of my engagement?
01:00:35Scarlett's talent as a producer is the reason you're as famous as you are, Dexter.
01:00:40The least you could do is show her a little respect.
01:00:45You know what? Actually, I'm sorry, you're right.
01:00:48I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me.
01:00:55Please ring up the guitar for Miss Hunt.
01:00:57I knew you would support me.
01:00:59Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale.
01:01:02You know, why don't you ask the new owner how much it costs and I'll pay it whatever it is
01:01:06right here and now.
01:01:08Miss Reed, as the new owner of the store, how much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:01:14Wait, what?
01:01:18I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:01:22Consider a late birthday gift for my former assistant.
01:01:26You did this for me.
01:01:28You really think I need a music store?
01:01:31Well, as CEO of Reed Records, you probably don't at all.
01:01:34But from someone who cares about you a lot, why the hell not?
01:01:39Dexter, are you insane? She's not even a real musician and you gave her the entire store?
01:01:47You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:01:51Oh, it's okay. Scarlet could have it for free. As long as she shows us the big hit that she's
01:01:57working on.
01:02:00Casey, I am not stooping to your level. And besides, we're late for hair and makeup. I will talk to
01:02:07you about this later.
01:02:08Come here.
01:02:10You will regret this. Casey has done nothing but ruin you. She's just a pretty face with no talent to
01:02:18back it up.
01:02:19Thanks, Mom.
01:02:25One, I'm not your assistant anymore. It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:02:32Two, my birthday was months ago. Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlet, so your gift means nothing.
01:02:39Nothing.
01:02:42Did you know I was actually gonna tell you my secret that night?
01:02:45What secret?
01:02:49Secret? Hold on. What are you talking about? What secret?
01:02:54Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:57No.
01:02:58That I wanted to spend every single day of the rest of my life with you.
01:03:05But not anymore.
01:03:07I don't need you.
01:03:19Don't pay attention to anything she just said.
01:03:21I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments to her collection.
01:03:25Yes, sir.
01:03:27Oh, one more thing.
01:03:30She's fired.
01:03:33Yes, sir.
01:03:37Dexter, you can't do this. I love you.
01:03:51Mr. Hayes, Ms. Hart, you're on in five. The broadcast will begin live.
01:03:58Did you hear that? Millions of fans are gonna be hearing your song.
01:04:02It's exactly what you deserve. The world needs to hear your talent.
01:04:07I can't believe I'm about to perform on the Universal Music Awards stage.
01:04:12All right, guys. It's time. Let's go.
01:04:15Scarlet!
01:04:30You can't start the show without me.
01:04:35I knew you'd make it.
01:04:36Of course she did. Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out.
01:04:41Dexter, Scarlet.
01:04:43You know, I'm actually surprised you showed up. I thought it would be too painful for you to witness people
01:04:48with actual talent perform when you yourself have none.
01:04:52Mmm. I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:57Oh. Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:05:01Wreck-a-leg, Scarlet. Or should I say, Echo.
01:05:06Don't choke. Hope you don't choke.
01:05:31The playback's down. The track's gone. Completely white.
01:05:35You have another version of the track, right?
01:05:41I didn't even make that version. I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me on to her reject
01:05:45tracks. Go fix this. Now.
01:05:50This is bad. All right. Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:05:54We're gonna open the broadcast and the label's gonna drop us. What are we gonna do?
01:05:59I have an idea. You're Echo, right?
01:06:13Yes. It's true. I'm Echo. The award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' longtime mystery collaborator.
01:06:22Then prove it.
01:06:24Go ahead. Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:06:28Come on. You're a genius producer, right? I mean, this is your chance to show off your talents. I mean,
01:06:35the whole world is watching.
01:06:37I don't know what any of these buttons even do. This bitch is trying to sabotage me.
01:06:42I must have another file I can play. I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time.
01:06:47Of course. Watch me work my magic.
01:07:08And that's how it's done. The show must go on.
01:07:11Nice try. Scarlet's proven herself enough. You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:07:19Okay. Can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle? And can you pan from stage left to
01:07:23stage right real quick?
01:07:26Yeah.
01:07:34Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do with the old-fashioned way. That means recording the instruments live looping
01:07:40the-
01:07:40Don't listen to her! She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber.
01:07:45And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:07:48If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to sabotage her-
01:07:57Echo, okay? So, just fix the track.
01:08:01Yeah. Come on, Echo. What, you have performance anxiety?
01:08:13Scarlet, you are our only hope now. You have to fix this.
01:08:18I could, if I had something other than this shoddy-breed-records-music-equipment to work with.
01:08:23Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:08:26Oh, I actually would, gladly, but it's actually your big night, so...
01:08:31Why don't you show everyone the brilliant Echo and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:08:36Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo!
01:08:42Just your Echo, okay? Record some MIDI instruments, lay them down, make a track. It's that simple. You know how
01:08:48to do this.
01:08:49You really think your fiancé is going to be able to fix this show?
01:08:53I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her.
01:08:57Casey shouldn't even be here. I can't let her expose me.
01:09:01Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend.
01:09:05Beep.
01:09:26Is this part of her process?
01:09:28It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:09:52Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:56Come on Echo, show them your talent. Keep going.
01:09:58Get off the stage! You're ruining the UMAs!
01:10:05Alright, look.
01:10:08It's done.
01:10:09You're really going to give up that easily, Dex?
01:10:12You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:10:15Yeah, I am.
01:10:16That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years?
01:10:20Yeah.
01:10:23Because you know what?
01:10:25Someone that I was close to once told me
01:10:28that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:10:32And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:10:34as a personal assistant for the new CEO of Read Records.
01:10:39Dexter! Stop it with those awful jokes!
01:10:42Your entire life's work is on the line!
01:10:45Mom!
01:10:46You heard the track, okay?
01:10:48There's no saving this song.
01:10:50Now it's over.
01:10:51It's over.
01:11:06Well...
01:11:06I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:11:10No! No! There's no...
01:11:12There's no other...
01:11:14Hey!
01:11:14It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:11:24What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:11:26Mom, Mom, stop.
01:11:29You heard of Scarlet?
01:11:31I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down
01:11:34as the worst performer in UMA history.
01:11:37If I couldn't mix a whole live track,
01:11:39what makes you think you could?
01:11:40For one, I know what I'm doing.
01:11:43And if you don't?
01:11:45Will you step down as Read Records CEO if you fail?
01:11:49Happily.
01:11:50Hmm.
01:11:54Everyone, we're about to watch the Read Records CEO dig her own grave.
01:11:58It seems like Echo is having technical difficulties with her track.
01:12:02Since we're live, let's make something new.
01:12:05Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice.
01:12:07Right now.
01:12:10Right now.
01:12:13Right now.
01:12:17I am not the kind for a show.
01:12:24This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:28Lights are low, but I still glow.
01:12:33This morning's got a sting.
01:12:37Good.
01:12:40Now let's make a hit.
01:12:49Let's fucking go!
01:13:05Let's fucking go!
01:13:06Wait, what is she doing?
01:13:09I mean, you produced this, right?
01:13:11So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:13:13I-I-I can't. I don't have much.
01:13:15You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent.
01:13:19I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:13:24Since when is Casey Reed a musical genius?
01:13:27That sound, it's...familiar.
01:13:30I'm not the kind for sure.
01:13:35This is not a one-time thing.
01:13:38Stop! Stop it!
01:13:39Let's go.
01:13:51Casey.
01:13:53You're Ekko.
01:13:55Does this mean Casey Reed is Ekko?
01:13:59This is my song! She just ripped it off!
01:14:02Who's stealing now, Scarlet?
01:14:04Don't listen to her!
01:14:06I'm Ekko!
01:14:10I didn't even make that version.
01:14:12I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:14:15Go fix this.
01:14:19Now everyone knows the truth.
01:14:25She's the one that saved the song.
01:14:27No, that was me!
01:14:29I already did all the work, she's just taking the credits!
01:14:31I had to mix the track live, Dexter, so that makes it my intellectual property.
01:14:37You're welcome to put it on your next album, but you're gonna have to pay me for it.
01:14:42Where do I sign?
01:14:43I don't think you could afford my fee.
01:14:46I think you might just be surprised.
01:14:49200 million.
01:14:51200 million?
01:14:52For one song?
01:14:53It's more than our entire album deal!
01:14:56Are you insane?!
01:14:57And...
01:14:58I want my name to be credited.
01:15:01Bad deal, Miss Reed.
01:15:04And one last thing.
01:15:05I want a public apology from Scarlet Hart and Amelia Hayes.
01:15:11That's ridiculous!
01:15:12Why should we apologize to you?
01:15:14I mean, you don't have to.
01:15:16I could just go ahead and leave and then Scarlet could finish the album and...
01:15:19Dexter's career could crash and burn, so...
01:15:22What will it be?
01:15:28The clock is ticking.
01:15:31I was wrong about you.
01:15:33You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:36I'm sorry.
01:15:40And you?
01:15:41Do it.
01:15:43Apologize to her.
01:15:44That bitch!
01:15:45Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:47She ruined everything!
01:15:49Come on, let's hear it.
01:15:50Tell the world the truth, Scarlet.
01:15:52Fine!
01:15:54I'm not Echo!
01:15:55I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs!
01:15:58They are happy?!
01:16:01They are happy?!
01:16:05Wait...
01:16:06That's not what I really meant!
01:16:09Dexter...
01:16:09She manipulated me!
01:16:11You're still my fiancé?
01:16:12You believe-
01:16:13Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see.
01:16:15You fucking bought and you're a damn liar!
01:16:19Casey is the one who built my career.
01:16:22Hell, she's the one who saved the damn song!
01:16:25She's the only one who ever cared about me or loved me.
01:16:28But...
01:16:30Our engagement is off.
01:16:32And so is the record.
01:16:52And so is the record.
01:16:55Please don't cancel the album.
01:16:57The album?
01:16:58Terminating your contract.
01:17:00And blacklisting you from the industry.
01:17:02Career is over.
01:17:08You got yourself a deal case.
01:17:14You got yourself a deal case.
01:17:19Hit it.
01:17:34You got yourself a deal.
01:17:40You got yourself a deal.
01:17:41You're too slow.
01:17:47You're toooooo-
01:17:49You're in my veins
01:17:52It's burning for my chains
01:17:57Who are you to tell me why?
01:18:03Who am I to live like?
01:18:08This mirror shows a thousand faces
01:18:12But none of them can burn
01:18:15Who am I to live like?
01:19:09Who am I to live like?
01:19:14Genius music producer Echo
01:19:16I think everyone saw the broadcast
01:19:18And my work speaks for itself
01:19:20You are a revolution in the music industry
01:19:22And we can't wait to see what you do next
01:19:24Echo
01:19:28You arrogant fucking whore
01:19:31You ruined everything
01:19:35Dexter was gonna be mine
01:19:37I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world
01:19:49But you have to get in my way
01:19:54That won't happen again
01:19:55Hey, say!
01:19:57Dex, no!
01:19:58No!
01:20:06No!
01:20:07No!
01:20:09Dex!
01:20:09Dex!
01:20:10Stay with me!
01:20:11Oh my god!
01:20:15Hey!
01:20:16Hey!
01:20:17Hey!
01:20:18You've been here all night
01:20:21You still love him, don't you?
01:20:24Dexter saved my life
01:20:25But
01:20:27As soon as I thank him
01:20:28We can move on
01:20:30You know, if you say so
01:20:31But
01:20:32Have you stopped and asked yourself
01:20:34Why he risked his own life
01:20:35To save you?
01:20:36It doesn't matter now
01:20:38Things will never return back
01:20:40To how they were before
01:20:42Casey
01:20:43Dexter was an absolute idiot
01:20:45For betraying you
01:20:46Okay?
01:20:47Listen
01:20:48But without him
01:20:49I would have lost my baby girl
01:20:51And those two songs
01:20:53You two produced together
01:20:54They made millions
01:20:56Believe in love
01:20:57Your love
01:20:58Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it
01:21:00I mean
01:21:01A love like that burns bright
01:21:03But it doesn't last forever
01:21:07Clearly Dexter
01:21:08Never stopped caring about you
01:21:10Hmm?
01:21:11Maybe your love story isn't over
01:21:12The other Reed Records executives
01:21:15Want Dexter to headline the big festival
01:21:17And sign him to the label again
01:21:19You know, if our CEO approves
01:21:27Dexter is sleeping
01:21:28But you can see him now
01:21:35Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess
01:21:54It was a close call
01:21:56One centimeter to the right
01:21:57He could have punctured his lung
01:22:00If Dex couldn't sing anymore
01:22:02His life might as well be over
01:22:03Oh, hopefully
01:22:05He'll recover
01:22:06But for now
01:22:07All he needs is rest
01:22:10That's it
01:22:10Okay?
01:22:11Okay
01:22:17What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:22:21How could you do something so stupid?
01:22:26If you don't make it through this
01:22:27Yes, I will never forgive you
01:22:30Never
01:22:34Bye
01:22:40I got you, beautiful
01:22:45Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:48I think I have every right to be
01:22:54Casey, I
01:22:55I miss you
01:23:01I miss him too
01:23:02But everything we've put each other through
01:23:05Can we really be together again?
01:23:08You saved my life
01:23:10And
01:23:13I will be forever grateful
01:23:18And in return
01:23:19I'll give you your song for free
01:23:20And
01:23:21We can go our separate ways
01:23:23We can end on a high note
01:23:24No
01:23:25No
01:23:27Is that really what you want?
01:23:30To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:39Look, there's something I have to show you
01:23:41Something I've been trying to show you
01:23:56That horrible night when I chose Scarlet
01:24:00I only did it because I had to
01:24:02They forced you to choose her
01:24:04I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:24:06I would never, ever, ever do that to you
01:24:09I'd choose you a million times over
01:24:12And I knew that I'd break your heart
01:24:13And I knew that I would lose you
01:24:16And I
01:24:18But I'd rather risk that
01:24:19Than losing your life forever
01:24:26But I said I loved you, Dexter
01:24:28I meant it
01:24:30I don't want to be with anyone else
01:24:32Me neither
01:24:37You're my little muse
01:24:41My pop star
01:24:46Which
01:24:48Reminds me
01:24:51Reed Records
01:24:52Would like to formally
01:24:54Invite you to headline the Wild Life Festival
01:24:57The Wild Life Festival
01:24:59Is the biggest music stage
01:25:00In the world
01:25:01You saved their CEO
01:25:03You deserve it
01:25:04You're the reason I sing
01:25:07You're the reason I live
01:25:08I don't want to songwrite or do any of this
01:25:10If I don't have you
01:25:11You
01:25:13You're my world, Casey
01:25:16I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:25:18I know
01:25:20But none of them compare to how I feel
01:25:23I don't want to be with you
01:25:24For just who you are
01:25:25Or what you have
01:25:26Or any of that stuff
01:25:28I don't even want to sing
01:25:29Or have this career
01:25:29I'd give it up in a second
01:25:30If it meant just being with you
01:25:33That's all I need
01:25:36We do it together
01:25:41I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes
01:25:44Okay
01:25:48I want us to do this together
01:25:52I love you
01:25:55I love you too
01:26:09This is the biggest crowd I've ever seen in my life
01:26:13Then we better give them one hell of a show
01:26:18Yes, ma'am
01:26:27I wrote this song with Casey Reed
01:26:31Who is my echo
01:26:33But more importantly
01:26:34She is undoubtedly the love of my life
01:26:39So, I hope you enjoy
01:27:03Just let's get on
01:27:05I love you, John
01:27:08I remember to smile
01:27:10I imagine what we're together
01:27:25This goes on
01:27:29There's stuff in the stockings
01:27:32But I am still walking
01:27:34And we're all through
01:27:38Was the fool who I hated
01:27:41Now I'm recreated
01:27:43Every time I look at the moonfall
01:27:49I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:27:55Soon you'll see
01:27:57That it's time for you and me
01:28:02Is the best so far
01:28:07We're just a little
01:28:12Every time I look in your eyes
01:28:17I forget where I am
01:28:19Just a little
01:28:20Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:26I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:29Yeah, yeah
01:28:36I'm taking and talking
01:28:38But I will be watching
01:28:50Every time I remember to smile
01:28:54I imagine the world
01:28:57We're together
01:29:09We're together
01:29:10I know it feels like
01:29:11I know it feels like
01:29:15I know it feels like
01:29:19Hold on, you got this
01:29:22All that you wanted
01:29:24Is on the other side
01:29:26And you're gonna find it
01:29:30It's rough and
